Speaking of Mrs. Porter's ex
pose of the manner in which east
ern hotel servants are housed and
fed, Joe Howard says in the Bos
ton Olebe: I am glad a woman
has taken hold of this matter.
Every goodnatured man of the
world who travels to any extent
knows about the treatment, but
he has no way to ventilate it. It
is a wonder to me that there is a
shred of virtue or a fiber of hon
esty left in any hotel servant on
the face of the globe. .
