MIR. Kenny has behind him 10
years service with the Statler chain.
He came to Washington two months
ago from the Statler management
IN Detroit. He expects no greater
problems here than those he faced
there.
Lost Many Workers.
I'm Detroit we would have a cer-
tain department stated with IS
persons, for instance" said Mr.. Ken
ny. 1T was nothing strange to
come in one morning and find that
only nine had shown up. You
simply had to get along with nine,
that's all. And even the staff you
started out with originally was
probably too small anyway. 1t was
difficult to keep people. Any girl
with fair intelligence could go out
and make $40 week in the defense
plants. But we shifted people
around a little and managed al
right"
The largest market for surplus
labor is in New York, where the
Statler chain operates a large ho-
tel, and where they are hiring many
specialists.
People in the executive offices of
the Washington Statler wear over
coats and hats. The heating plant
uses both oil and coal, but is not
turned on fully.
There is no use flooding the
place with heat" according to
Mr.. Kenny.
The inner lobbies are still being
plastered and painted. The marble
installations are up and mirrors and
indirect light fixtures are in place.
Reservations Offices are taking shape
and fancy elevator doors are covered
with protective molds and scaffold-
ing. A wide stairway in black
marble with white veining swings
from the main floor to upper stories.
Thick carpets already have been
laid along the upper corridors.
