stamps, collects mail
NEW YORK-Introduction of the Mail-
omat, coin operated service machine,
during May, was cause for widespread
interest among coin men of this city.
The machine does away with the pur-
chase of stamps, automatically printing
a metered stamp on letters, then depos-
iting them in a container to await col-
lection.

New York Postmaster Goldman and
Ramsey S. Black, third assistant pos t-
master general, assisted in the demon-
stration of the new machine, at which
time two letters addressed to President
Roosevelt were deposited with the nec-
e ssary coins and s tamped by the Mailo-
mat. Postmas ter Goldman s tated, "We
look forward to the time when hotels
and every public center throughout the
country will have the opportunity of em-
ploying this new device."
According to the manufacturers, the
Pitney-Bowes Pos tage Meter Company
of Stamford, Connecticut, the machine
is "foolproof" and has been approved
by the Post Office Department for pri-
vate distribution. Since metered stamps
require no postoffice cancellation, use
of the machine is said to facilitate hand-
ling of mail and expedite its delivery.

REVIEW
Pennies, nickels, dimes or quarters
may be inserted in slots of the machine
in any combination or amount up to 60
cents. Through a glass window in the
machine the mailer's coin deposit is al-
ways visible. A dial permits selection
of postage denominations from I to 22
cents.
Bert Perkins
Manufacturers s tate that a machine
will be installed in the New York
World's Fair Post Office . It is expected
that the new machine will do much to
make the public coin machine con-
scious.

nouncement by Jim Buckley, vice-pres-
ident and general sales manager.
With a bell background gained dur-
ing six years a s sales manager of the
0. D. Jennings coin machine division,
Perkins comes to Bally well prepared
to carry on the organization and sales
work of the company. "Perk,,, as he is
known in coin machine circles, was for
five years sales promotion manager and
a ssistant sales manager in the Mills
mus ic division.
Perkins is said to be personally ac-
quainted with more bell operators and
distributors than any other man in the
bell field. He is also a recognized au-
thority on every phase of bell operation,
Buckley states, and is generally cred-
ited with being the originator of the
bell license idea.
Discussing hi s appointment to the
Bally staff, Perkins said, "Naturally, I
have had occasion during the past year
to watch the growing popularity of the
Bally Bell. I have come to the definite
conclusion that it is going places. The
double principle is very sound, partic-
ularly because one person playing a
bell always attracts others. I am sold
a hundred per cent on the Bally Bell
and the Bally Manufacturing Company."

REVIEW
Cigarette Vendors Ass'n
of E. Penn. &. New Jersey
By HARRY BORTNICK
Taking a vote on the recommenda-
tions of the special committee which had
studied plans for a revision of the by-
laws, the membership of the organiza-
tion unanimously approved the meas-
ures proposed by the committee. A
special meeting was held early ~n May,
with the entire membership in attend-
ance at which time the operators were
informed of the suggestions offered by
the committee.
Discussion centered about the mean-
ing of the various types of locations.
An "open location" meaning one in
which members could place machines
and "closed location" being one in
which an association member has a
recognized interest to place a machine.
Terminology of the various definitions
was carefully explained by Norman
Fuhrman, counsel and secretary, who
stated that it was desired to include as
much beneficial material as possible in
the new by-laws. However, he explain-
ed, it was not intended to make the

revision too binding or restrictive so that
it would be impossible for the grievance
committee or other body to use elastic
judgment in any situation that might
arise.
Immediately the vote was taken and
the revisions approved. A decision was
made to hold another meeting during
May at which time it would be possible
for the members to further discuss the
new by-laws.
Since the executive committee would
be capable of guiding the affairs of the
Association during the summer months,
it was decided not to hold regular
monthly meetings during that time. The
executive committee will meet semi-
monthly or more often if any matter re-
quires their attention. The committee
will hold itself at the call of the chair-
man, E. J. Dingley.
The special membership drive which
had been conducted pwvious to the re-
vision of the charter by-laws resulted in
the affiliation of several tobacco distri-
butors who also operate cigarette ma-
, chines. Among the largest of these
distributor-operators is the L J. Abram-
son Company.

CHICAGO-A new merchandise filler
has been placed on the market for oper-
ators servicing peanut and ball gum
machines, according to officials of the
Automatic Games.
Designed by A. Theis, vending ma-
chine manufacturer for fifteen years, the
new filler is made to enable operators to
service their machines in a simple,
quick and efficient manner.
The filler consists of a streamlined
case with four separate removable
units, each holding five pounds of mer-
chandise. A spout on the end facilitates
the refilling of vendors and an enclosed
compartment holds tools and money.
