Yet another example of how a super wealthy family skirted the law to accrue their wealth..
Fredrich Trump, one of 16 children, didn’t want to follow in the family business, so he left his widowed mother in the lurch and came to this country. He Americanized his name to Fredrick and went west – young man — to a red-light district in Seattle. According to Trump family biographer, Gwenda Blair:
“There he leased a tiny storefront restaurant named the Poodle Dog, which had a kitchen and a bar and advertised “private rooms for ladies”–code for prostitutes. It would allow the resourceful Trump, who renamed it the Dairy Restaurant, to offer the restless, frustrated public some right-now satisfaction in the form of food, booze and easily available sex.”
