DISCUSSION
The Operator's Forum of discussion is a part of the regular con­
vention at Cleveland this year, as it has been previously. The pro-
gmm lists for open discussion such questions as Commissions, Slugs,
Credit to Operators, Operator’s Rights in Locations,
Respects of Contracts, Guaranteed Machines and
others. It is easy to recognize at once that these
questions are of keen interest to every operator. It

to be considerate of others when we feel like letting
go in expressions of strong feeling. The cool after
