Soldier Boys
Need Coin Help
LOS ANGELES-Opportunity is knock-
ing so loudly on the doors of coin machine
operators she is almost breaking them
down ... and back of her stand thousands
of young men in brown, the victims of un-
fair sales discriminations! Young men who
need food automats ... picture machines! '
Young men with only $21.00 a month to
spend!
When all the radios are blaring patriotic
programs and the movies presenting patri-
otic pictures, you might expect that prices
would be lowered to the draftees ... but,
according to an article by Samuel Grafton
in Look Magazine, Sept. 23rd, the case is
just the opposite! Grafton recites a story
of pictures, co ting civilians 10c, going to
the soldi ers at 25c ... coffee, regularly 5c
a cup, priced at 10c for the boys from the
camps!
Coffee dispensing machines . . . sand-
wich and ice cream machines ... machines
for taking pictures are the answer to that
problem! For there is no injustice in ma-
chines! They're like the Four Musketeers,
"All for one and one for all!"

LOS ANGELES-The Associated Opera-
tors of Los Angeles County are assisting
other associations in the "Drive Safely"
campaign staged so successfully very re-
cently by the local group.
Said Curley Robinson: "This Association
has loaned its famous 'Have A Heart' stick-
er cuts in full colors to the Amusement
Merchants' Association in San Francisco
and to Max Zimet of the Sicking Co. in
Indianapolis. Both of these have requested
the cuts for campaigning in their respec-
tive cities."
The local gro up distributed thousands of
the stickers in the local area and won con-
siderable goodwill through their efforts . •
