Invocation was asked by the Dealers Establish Opening and Closing Times to Meet Other Cities
The first concerted action in the matter of adjusting hours of opening and closing of business houses in the city was taken last week when the furniture dealers of Anaheim established new hours.
All furniture stores in the city are now opening at 8:30 in the morning and closing at 5:30 in the evening. The only exception to those hours is on Saturday, when the stores are remaining open until 9 o'clock.
Join Other Cities
Decision was reached by the various furniture dealers last Friday morning. The hours of the Anaheim stores now coincide with those of furniture businesses in Fullerton, Orange and Santa Ana, it was said.
Agitation has been going on throughout southern California for the past few months to shorten the business hours of all stores, but in few cities have any definite agreements been reached. George W. Reid, secretary of the chamber of commerce, has contacted several of the cities and reports no agreements of all stores in any city.
No Action Taken
Herb Eldred, who retires as president of the Anaheim Merchants' association next week, declared that the organization he has headed for the past year has taken no definite action in the matter. Both Eldred and Reid expressed the belief that the problem can be more satisfactorily handled by individual groups rather than having the chamber of commerce or the Merchants' association make any attempt to establish opening and closing hours.
Different Needs
It was pointed out by both, that each type of business may have different requirements than other types. What might be satisfactory to groceries would not necessarily be satisfactory to drug stores, clothing stores or restaurants.
In questioning a few business men of the city the Gazette learned that most of them favored the establishing of hours by each division of business, regardless of whether they coincided with the opening and closing hours of other types of stores.
