To the Editor:

When I was 15 years old Iwas already cleaninga bar in Ship Bottom. Many mornings I would wake up early and ride my biketo clean it because I had to have it done before my other job started. I grewup in the restaurantand bar business in Philadelphia, working for my family.

By the time I was 17, 18,I was cleaningtwo restaurants in Beach Haven and one in ShipBottom every daybefore my other job started, and I did not own a car.
