Prohibition Urged Again
WASIUNGTON - The Women's Chris·
tian Temperance Union and the Methodist
Church Board of Temperance have fired
the opening guns in a drive to restore pro·
hibition in much the same fashion as dur-
ing World W ar One. At present such legis-
l ation is pending before Congress but those
in the know believe there is little chance
of success at the present time,
They point out that if the nation was
faced with a wheat and coi n shortage to·
day as in the last war that such legislation
might be enacted but at present ther e is a
surplus of both grains which are basic units
in the fermentation of hard liquors,
However the two dry groups are shroud·
ing their drive under the cloak of saving
our service men from a drunkard's life.
Claim is made that establishments of ques-
. tionable character and frequented with
persons of loose morals, are catering to
service men and selling them liquor in de·
fiance of army and navy regulations and
curfew orders.
On the West Coast the Navy took the
matter into its own hands on June 6th and
posted the names of establishments found
to be unfit for sailors. To make sure sailors
did not frequent the spots on the pub·
lished list military police wer e spotted a t
the entrance to each place and should a
sailor attempt to enter the place a stretch
in the brig would b.e th e immediate pen·
alty.
It is believed that such action on the
part of the Navy will lead local officials to
clean u p the situation to such a degree that
any and all spots can be opened to service
men and that rul es an d regul ations laid
down by th e Army and Navy will be ob-
served.
Hew Jap Unit Ready
SAN ANTONIO, T ex. - A new Jap
Change-Over for Bally Shoot the Bull and
Bally Rapid Fire Guns is now being shipped
to operators in all parts of the country by
Harold W. Thompson, Seeburg Phonograph
Distributor, who has built quite a name fo r
himself supplying ray gun operators with
the Change-Over units.
Included in the Thompson line are units
for Chicken Sam and J ailbird machines and
both the J ap and Hitler units are available.
Operators report the use of these units reo
vives the play. Unit consists of entirely new
molded figures, ' fl ashy new sixteen color
'scenery processed on heavy cardboard and
streamer for top of the machine. Units may
be installed right on location.
WASHINGTON- According to the most
reliable information available here on June
1st some merchandise vended through auto·
matic vending machines is considered as
retail sales and as such will be controlled
by the price-freezing order of April 28th.
It is suggested tha t operators obtain
copies of this order and study it for the
effect it has upon the various types of mer·
chandise they vend. The time fo r making
price reports to the government has been
extended to July 1st.
Present information is that gum, peanuts,
candy and other merchandise of like nature
is not listed as a cost.of.living item and no
price ceiling need be posted on the mao
chine. Cigarettes are classed as a cost-of·
living item and price ceiling must be
posted. Ice cream also falls into this classi·
fication.
To play safe operators should preserve
all records for the month of March, 1942,
until definite rulings clarifying all points
are issued by the Office of Price Adminis·
tration,
Operators Buying Cautiously
CHICAGO- Eddie Ginsburg, Atlas Nov·
elty Co. executive, relates that a new ap·
preciation of values is being evidenced by
the operator in his purchases today and
that policies the operator is now establish·
ing for himself will cause a beneficial ef-
fect upon manufacturing of new equip·
ment when the war is over.
For as Eddie puts it "coinmen are exer·
cising a great deal more .c are in choosing
their equipment · today. We particularly
notice that' · operators give most considera·
tion to games that lire designed for the
long pull ; equipment that can be operated
indefinit ely at a profit. The demand for
such machines is growing noticeably
stronger and. the situation at this time pre·
sents a startling contrast to the less delib·
erllte buying method that was prevalent as
r ecently as a· year ago. I firmly believe that
today's bu.ying habits will exert a strong,
stabilizing influ ence on post-war manu·
facturing and operating.
"We at Atlas were able to foresee the
buying trend, and we made all possible
preparations for it," Eddie continued,
" While th e games we now offer, both new
and used, provide great variety, we have in
stock a big reserve of the equipment that
features staying power as well as earning
power. This, together with the elaborate
reconditioning service provided by our
sho ps, has strengthened immeasurably At·
las' position as a leading distributor."

EMPIRE COIN MACHINE EXCHANGE
Monarch Well Stocked
CHICAGO-Besides having one of the
largest stocks of new and used equipment
in the nation Monarch Coin Machine Co.
is doing a big business in their repair servo
ice division.
"The interest of operators is equally
divided between our huge stock of new
and used equipment and our large, fully
equipped reconditioning shop," stated Al
Stern. "Hundreds of games have been re-
conditioned for duration operating at the
req\Jest of our customers. Our shipping and
receiving departments have been putting in
overtime to expedite deliveries of the reo
paired games, as well as those of the new
and used games purchased from our stock.
"The thoroughness of Monarch recondi-
tioning is well known to the trade and the
reputation for this service, established over
a long period, is recognized wherever coin
. machines are operated. It has been a big
factor in helping us to set sales records on
28 1 2 W _ NORTH AVENUE
CHICAGO , ILL. HUMboldt 6288
used games. Today, when used games are
vital requirements, for continued operating,
we enjoy the confidence of operators the
nation over, thanks to the constantly
guarded high standards which guide our
service department," Stern said.
Parina Family Enlarged
SAN FRANCIS CO.-Mary Lynn is the
name of the package from Heaven that
dropped into the R. A. Parina home the
last of May to take her place in the house-
hold with a 4Y2 year old daughter the Pa-
rinas adopted in the East a year ago.
Mary Lynn was only 10 days old when
she came to the Parinas but Dick has made
her arrival a terrific event and now little
Mary Lynn feels that the Parinas really
know how to do a bang up job on receiving
"bundles from Heaven."
EDITOR'S SIDE NOTE: Some of
you lads might miss Dick on the golf course
in the next few weeks. Remember that you
once, too, walked the floor at night.)
