LOCAL TRAVELERS GAIN FIRST-HAND STRIKE EVIDENCE (Continued Irom J-aga One.) perm Luton from union authorities to do AO. The lobby tu thronged with policemen and Plnkerton men, Mrs. Rosenberg said. Managers continued to attempt to serve patrons but with Uttlo success. Efforts by them to run the switchboard and to take caxe of desk details resulted In considerable confusion, guests having to wait for some tlma aa a hotel executive searched for keys or attempted to put through a telephone call. Patrons carried their own bags al though hotel managers would always assist whenever possible. Taxi-cab drivers refused to psrk near the ho tel, sympathising with the strikers enough to stay well outside picket lines. By Sunday, however, they were taking up their stands In the same block aa the hotel although some dis tance from entrances. New visitors were not being regist ered In most of the effected hotels, Mrs. Rosenberg, stated, aa It was Im possible to take cere of the guests already thore. Beds went unmade, dirty linen piled up and the result ing confusion presented a major problem to the hotels. According to Mrs. Rosenberg, an entirely different attitude could be seen following the walk-out, a de pression seeming to have settled over the entire hotel. First-night pickets, Mrs. Rosenberg said, seemed to be largely Filipinos wnuo women predominated In the picket ranks Sunday. Mrs. Rosenberg believes that the hotel men were taken entirely by sur prise at the strike and she states they were evidently extremely worried over the situation. On Sunday they aeemed to believe the strike may con tinue for another week, she said. While she found it an Interesting experience, Mrs. Rosenberg stated she i doesn't think It would be so much of a lark for a longer period. She ssld she was not greatly Inconvenienced and Is glad she had the opportunity of observing a strike situation. She and her daughter returned home this morning. direct ' MO.
