Time Time ceases to be relative in Chi- cago and becomes a “two-time"” per- plexity, according to reports receiv- ed from that city since the inaugura- tion of Eastern Time for the city, ef- fective March 1. Despite heavy opposition, Chicago went on an Eastern Time basis offi- cially. However, business houses are using the time that meets most favorably with their conditions. The Chicago Tribune, a morning | paper, is in favor of the time change principally because it cheats the Chicago Daily News, an evening paper, out of one hour's late after- noon news. The railroads are still on Central Standard Time, because they are governed by Federal statute. Federal functions, likewise con- tinued on a basis of Central Time, although the clocks were moved |ahead, the hours of work were un- changed. ‘The Chicago Board of Trade de- cided to conform to the new ruling, | but found Minneapolis, Kansas City, Winnepeg and other grain markets refusing to follow suit. Faced with the loss of grain business, directors invoked an emergency rule, over- rode the membership vote and set opening and closing time one hour later, cancelling the change. Likewise, the Chicago Stock Mar- ket and Curb Exchanges open later and close later. As a result, in addition to con- siderable confusion for those who have accepted the change, a major result has been that Chicago work- ers are now gettipg up an hour later (by the clock), and are working an hour later. Interstate Commerce Commission- er Clyde D. Aichson, chairman of the hearing on Chicago's time change, suggests that the move might be unconstitutional. If this can be es- tablished Chicago will be again on a Central Time basis. POSTPONE TUESDAY RELIEF MEETING TO | LATER IN WEEK| The meeting of representatives of various governmental and civic or- ganizations scheduled for tomorrow afternoon in the City Hall has been postponed to allow further| time to get in communication with | Federal authorities in Washington, it was announced today by Norman | Banfield, Chairman of the commit- tee named to look into the relle[ problem. Messages have been sent to Harry L. Hopkins, Federal Relief Admm— istrator, and also Delegate Dimond, Banfield said, but up to late this afternoon no reply had been ' re. ceived. Under the circumstances, he said, it was decided to set the Tuesday meeting over until later in | the week, the exact time to be decided.
