July 20.—(IP)— Silk-hatted big business men are gniity of accepting dime and quarter tips dally, declares Al bert Payson Terhune, noted writ er, in launching today In the American Magasine, w h a t he hopes will become a nation-wide movement to end tipping. "The tip we glee," says* Ter hune. “does not go to the em ploye to whom we trust it. It goes straight to the.pockets of his employer. Who depends upon ths soft-bolledness of >1» qptrons tp eke out the tetagy^e wish to, pay his employe. Hatf the world traces upon the soft- bolledness of the other half, end whatever this haH gdvea in tips is just that much in the pockets of the ’hard-boiled* fraction. The remedy is for everybody to, de velop a thirty-minute head and keep a three-minute heart. . “The hard-boiled dependents upon soft-boiled people realise that we do not tip ordinarily from generosity. We do It from cowardice. , If we did not the people whom we tip would get fair pay in wages and the public would be saved from orging in cowardly guiae to pay an unde served carfh tribute. Perhaps ser vice would cost more, but we could come out of a hotel, restau rant, barber shop or other place with our self respect and every body would be richer at the end of the year.” Terhune declares that tipping is an anarchroniam in the mod ern conduct of business and urges that its abolition be taken up seriously throughout the country.
