Copeland Leads Banirs To Sunday Barber Law Push
Senator Royal S. Copeland of New York has proposed a bill to close all barber shops in the District of Columbia on Sundays. The move draws support from both employers and workers in the trade, who see it as offering a needed day off and a chance for rest and fresh air. Copeland, former New York health commissioner and ex mayor of Ann Arbor, seeks wider adoption of the idea if the federal measure passes. Tammany Hall is cool to another term, but Copeland remains eager to win renomination and carry the campaign.
