Free food, travel
stifles business
HOUSTON (AP) — Summit?
What summit?
That’s what many of Houston’s
cab drivers and restaurant owners
are asking themselves after an-
ticipating huge profits from the
onslaught of foreign dignitaries and
journalists this week, only to dis-
cover otherwise.
Lavish spreads of food represen-
tative of each of the seven countries
attending the 16th International
Economic Summit have been of-
fered free to the more than 3,000
journalists covering the event.
The decision to provide endless
buffets filled with such delicacies
as kung pao chicken, swordfish and
angel hair pasta did wonders for the
catering businesses around town.
But the around-the-clock com-
plimentary meals and traffic
roadblocks elsewhere in town have
kept foreign visitors from tasting
Houston’s fexas%yle barbecue or
Tex-Mex cuisine.
“Our business is down,” said an
employee at Otto’s Bar-B-Q, Presi-
dent Bush’s favorite spot for
mesquite-grilled fixings. “They
have barricaded the people so they
can’t get out or in. We are right on
Memorial (Parkway), where all the
traffic has been redirected.”
The employee, who asked not to
be identified, said, “We definitely
expected to be busier than this.”
Eddie Walker, a manager at
Brennan’s Houston restaurant
downtown, was ready for a rush of
summiteers, but now wonders if he
has collected a single dollar from a
summit visitor.
“It really has not been what we
expected,” Walker said Tuesday
night. “We were led to believe we
were going to see a great deal of
the journalists* business. But by
feeding them for free, we have
been almost completely cut out”
Hundreds of the city’s con-
spicuous yellow cabs do laps
around downtown blocks searching
for summit customers.
But almost all of them are on
buses that run free of charge every
10 minutes from hotels to the
George R. Brown Convention Cen-
ter downtown, where most of the
media are headquartered.
“Business has been so slow,
there might as well not even be a
summit as far as I’m concerned,”
said Houston cab driver Charles
Rough. “Nobody needs transporta-
tion.
Cab drivers say their job has
been further disturbed by the
sporadic traffic jams caused by
motorcades of summit dignitaries
cruising through Houston arteries
on short notice.

Dear Ann Landers: I recently
lost my wife, a warm, loving
companion for nearly 60 years. I am
now sorting through her belongings
and came across a scrapbook of
Clippings she especially liked.
Anting them was a column of
yours. I have no idea when it was
published. She read you every day
but I did not. (Now I wish I had.)
When I finished reading that
column I was pretty choked up
because I realized that the reason
she clipped it was because she saw
me as die man in the column.
I now know what it is to be loved.
Please, Ann, print that column again
for other husbands who are still
lucky enough to have a loving
woman at their side. Like so many
others, I didn't appreciate what I had
until I lost her. - J.G., BOSTON,
MASS.
DEAR J.G.: Thank you for ask-
ing. Here it is:
Dear Ann Landers: "Please come
home early." This was the most
unreasonable request ever made by
my wife of almost 40 years.
She didn't make this request
often. It came mostly on Saturdays,
Sundays and holidays, but it seemed
that I always had so many things to
do that in spite of her gentle urging,
1 rarely came home early.
I don't want to give the impres-
sion that 1 was never at home. I was
at home a lot. We rarely did
anything out of the ordinary. We
enjoyed the kids and the grandchil-
Ann
Landers
dren. We listened to music, read the
paper and had meals together.
Sometimes we would just talk about
how the day had gone.
Now I know why she asked me to
"please come home early." She
wasn't just lonely; she was lonely
for me. When she passed away a
short time ago, I learned firsthand
what loneliness is all about I have a
supportive family and many good
friends. I'm free now to go places
and do things, but Fm lonesome.
Lonesome for her.
Now that she's gone, Tve found
that time to "come Home early," but
there is nobody to come home to.
There is nobody to do those simple
little things with, such as watching
the evening news, listening to
music and reading the paper. And
nobody cares how my day went.
If I should get a call from the good
Lord to "please come home early," I
won't fight it - LONESOME IN
K C
DEAR LONESOME: How sad
that so many of life's lessons are
learned after it is too late to put them
into practice.
I'll bet thousands of husbands who
cathy®
are asked to "please come home
early" will look upon that request in
a different light after reading your
poignant letter. And they may even
do it 1 hope it will be a comfort to
know that you’ve helped a lot of
people today by sharing a real love
story.
Dear Ann Landers: Your lovely
Mother’s Day column brought to
mind a favorite story I read in an
ancient copy of Reader's Digest.
Here it is:
A Mother of the Year was being
* interviewed and was asked about her
sizable brood. "Do you have a
favorite?" the interviewer asked.
"Of course I do," was the answer.
"Every mother does."
The interviewer was surprised at
this mother's candor and asked,
"Would you mind telling us which
is yours?"
"Not at all," came the soft reply.
"It is the one who is rick - until he
or she gets well, and the one who is .
gone— until he or she gets heme:-
