Constructive workers in the
coin machine industry read
Automatic Age, and call on it for
assistance from time to time.
Here’s a letter which indicates
both the reader-interest of ma­
terial printed in Automatic Age
and the quest for good case ma­
terial with which to oppose un­
fair or discriminatory local li­
censes whenever and wherever
proposed:
To be most helpful, Automatic
Age should receive a copy of the
proposed local ordinance. Copies
of court decisions on such cases
should also be sent in. This in­
formation will be kept in file for
future reference. By cooperat­
ing in this respect, associations
and operators throughout the
country will have their efforts
strengthened.
Enemy ears are everywhere
waiting for you to talk— serve in
silence.
Keep your lips sealed and save
lives— serve in silence.
Think before you speak— the
enemy is listening— serve in si­
lence.

“As attorney for United Music
Operators of Michigan affiliated
with United Electrical Radio and
Machine Workers of America,
Local 737 (CIO), I read with
interest the article in your May-
June 1942— Vol. 18— No. 10, on
page one, concerning tax on coin
operated machines, and I will
much appreciate any list of court
decisions affecting license and
tax matters which you indicate
you have in hand.

“We have a case pending in
Circuit Court here in Detroit
where we are contesting the va­
lidity of a village ordinance
which requires a license to oper­
ate music boxes— and it is our
contention that this ordinance is
unconstitutional.
“Honorable Theodore J. Rich­
ter, Circuit Judge, County Build­
ing, now has the case under con­
sideration after submission of
briefs and, if there is any in­
formation on the subject which
you may have in hand, I am sure
we will appreciate your nota­
tions and doubtless the judge
would like to have them as the
question is almost a new one,
and we can find few decisions for
guidance. Thanking you in ad­
vance for such information on
the subject as you may have in
hand.”
