Rome Paradise For Diners; Waiters Decline All Tips (By Associated Press) ROME. June 27. Rome waiters refuse to accept tips from patrons. Tips are rigorously suppressed and nothing can induce the waiters to violate the practice. Their Insistence on keeping to the regulations, however, is not motivated by any altruistic tendencies for one of the Rome waiters' "four

teen points" is that 20 per cent must

be added to the total of the bill for service. An American, one of the latest arrivals in Rome, who is attached to the American embassy here, was paying bis bill recently when, on leaving a tip of thirty cents for the waiter, he w as astonished to find the waiter handing the money back to him. The American immediately concluded that the tip was not considered sufficient and that it was therefore scorned. He was reaching into his pocket to reinforce his gratuity when some one speaking English told him of the Rome rule. Thereupon he pocketed the tip and walked out Large posters have been placed in the restaurants and tea rooms here announcing the action of the waiters. On the whole, the practice seems to

have satisfied the patrons, who feel

that they have, at least, been spared the annoyance of the inevitably disgruntled waiter.
