Volunteers Will HeIp
In Obtaining Typical
April 4-to-10 Menus

A plan under which several hum
dred woman volunteers will investi-
gate compliance with the new res
taurant price rollback order is now
being drawn up here and will be
ready for operation within the next
two weeks, District OPA officials
said today.
At the same time, the enforcement
officials disclosed that steps already
are being taken to obtain typical
April 4 to 10 menus" from District
restaurants that have not yet filed
copies with the OPA.
Between 20 and Is per cent of the
eating places here neglected to turn
in copies of these menus, which
were to have been in the hands of
OPA by the week of May 2, local
OPA spokesman estimated.
Needed for Enforcement.
The spokesman explained that
the menus are needed for enforce
ment of the rollback order, which
freezes restaurant prices in the
District, Maryland, Delaware, Penn
sylvania. New Jersey and New York
at the April to 10 level.
The spokesman said, however.
that the District OPA does not re-
gard previous failure to turn in the
menus as an intentional violation
and will take no action against the
restaurant operators who turn in
the menus now
Price clerks, recently employed to
handle clerical work for the Dis
trict's Is neighborhood price panels,
are checking the names of estab-
lishments that have turned in
menus against the list of those that
have applied for food rations, the
spokesman said. Post card requests
for menus are being mailed ont on
the basis of this investigation.
Volunteers Enter Picture.
In cases where operators fail to
respond to post card or telephone
requests for the menus. volunteer
price panel assistant will be sent in
person to the restaurant in question,
the spokesman said.
Surveys to determine compliance
with the rollback probably will be
made in the next few weeks, as soon
as plans have been worked out, the
local OPA official indicated.
He said the plans and materials
would be turned over to the IS
neighborhood price panels. and that
the check to determine compliance
would be made by the women VOL
unteers who serve as price panel
assistants

Huff Opposes
Institution Here
For Alcoholics
Says GolIineer and
Workhouse Provide
Facilities Now

Ray L. HUFF. District welfare di-
rector, today took issue with the
recommendation of Wilbur La Roe,
jr. chairman of the Committee on
Civic Affairs of the Washington
Federation of Churches, than an in
stitution be constructed in the post
war period for the care and rehabil-
itation of inebriates.
Il think it would be most unwise
to become involved in any large ex-
penditure of public funds for a
specialized service for alcoholics un-
til we can be sure that it is more
than an experimental proposition, "
Mr.. Huff declared in a memorandum
to Commissioner Guy Mason.
Mr.. HUH said the immediate
problem was the length OF time that
alcoholics must serve in the work
house before we can approach our
problem realistically"
Says More Time Needed.
1T is not proper to say that the
correctional services are Inadequate
in this problem any more so than
medical services are inadequate, for
the simple reason that these persons
come to us for such a brief time that
1t is unreasonable to assume that
the time allowed to us is enough to
interrupt the habits established by
the use of alcohol.
Any longer period of time would
lend more toward the interruption
of the habit and the establishment
of new habit in which alcohol is
not included in the regular diet.
This is only one and perhaps a
minor aspect of the problem, but it
is an aspect which would be essen
tial before any additional forms of
treatment would be promised"
Mr.. Huff argued that the correc-
ton of alcoholism in any one case
involves re establishing" the mo-
tives of the afflicted person and
this problem includes more than
any institution. whether it be hos
pital or correctional institution 1t
is the sort Of thing that in social
work is referred to as case work. /"
So far as the mechanical features
of an inebriate farm are concerned.
the public welfare director said that
with one exception the workhouse
has them all. This one exception,
he said. is the professional service
necessary to improve observation
by examination and professional
judgment.
Can Add Medical Service.
This can be included into the
workhouse facilities by the inclusion
there of what we call the classifi-
cation service, which. among other
things, will include additional med
ical and, to degree, psychiatric
service"
Mr.. Huff said also that certain i'm
provements in housing at the work.
house should be added and that
they could be used for the different
types included among the alcoholics.
Such an improvement to the work.

assistance in Gallinger Hospital. in
