General Coin Is New
Distributing Firm
A s A u t o m a t ic A ge goes to press,
word comes of the formation of a new
coin machine company in Chicago. It
is to be called the General Coin Ma­
chine Corporation and has been or­
ganized with a capital stock of $25,­
000 as successors to Kenney & Sons.
The officers are: G. J. Feinberg,
President; J. C. Horvath, Vice Presi­
dent and Secretary, and H. N. Wiwe-
lund, Treasurer.
The purpose of the General Coin
Machine Corporation was set forth in
the following words by the Treasurer,
Mr. Wikelund.
“Arrangements have been made
whereby the General Coin Machine
Corporation will act as the city sales
organization for the distribution of
Rock-Ola products in the Chicago ter­
ritory.
Mr. David C. Rockola has been
elected as a director of the General
Coin Machine Corporation. He will
act in an advisory capacity and aid
in the formulation of General’s sales
policies.
“In connection with the distribution
of Rock-OIa products,” Mr. Wikelund
went on to say, “all our activities will
be confined to the Chicago territory
only.
“As for the rest of the country,
outside of Chicago, it will be taken
care of in the usual efficient manner
by the present distributors of Rock-
Ola products.
During the interview, A u t o m a t ic
A ge was informed that this plan of
distribution is in keeping with the
sales plans of other large organiza­
tions in other fields. An example is
the Graybar Division of the Western
Electric Company, which acts as a
Chicago sales organization. Another
example is R. Cooper, Jr., which acts
as a city sales organization for Gen­
eral Electric.
