NEW YORK PREPARING TO CELEBRATE NEW YEAR: THINGS'LL BE FINE IN '39
New York, To-day.
With most of the hotels charging an average of $35 (about H.K.$105), for dinner, New York is pre- paring to spend one of the most expensive New Year's Eves after depression times. Fifteen hundred extra hands have been engaged to augment the city's regular 15,000 bartenders, though New Year's Eve celebrants in New York will have to observe, the regular Sunday, 3 a
a.m., curfew in respect of the serving of liquor.
The curfew has been raised in some other States,
however.
As usual, upwards of half a mil- lion are expected to jam Times Square, where shops have been boarded up and the lower parts of
ANTI-SEMITIC
windows guarded against breakage. LAW LEADS
Scores of extra police have been drafted into the city to handle the throngs.
