Del Bern, Fresno, was in to see Fred
Gaunt at Trojan and take home a couple
of new machines.
Jack Thompson of T hompson Brothers,
Delano, was in on the 8th to pick up sup·
plies. In unloading a console at Herb Mc·
Clellan's, it was found that Jack had
brought down a neat nest of black widow
spiders in the base of the' machine. Seems

innards of machines to enjoy the warmth
therein.
Lucille Arnold is back from her vacation
and is now busy once more on her route
at Barstow.

restaurant and cocktail lounge. Art says
that business far surpasses his fondest
dreams.
The Laymons are really a busy pair these
days. Paul with his air raid warden work
and Lucille with her Red Cross work, make
one of the most occupied couples in the
business in these parts.
C. A. Tomlinson, Exeter, was in the first
part of the month for new equipment.
Arlene Ginse, secretary at Laymons, is
now Mrs. Russell Early. She was married
on Sep tember 14th and the happy couple

WVMOA Discusses Tax
LOS ANGELES.-Taxes occupied the
main discussions at the September 29th
meeting of the Western Vending Machine
Operators' Association held at McDonald's
restaurant in the Gates Hotel.
The membership is pleased with the tax
established in the city whereby the op·
erators pay a $10.00 per year occupational
tax for the first $5,000.00 in gross business
and $1.00 per thousand for additional busi·
ness.
Also discussed at length was the pro·
posal made in Washington, D. c., recently
to tax vendors $3.00 per machine per year.
With the average yearly net from a vendor
running from $3.00 to $5.00 it is easy to
see the utter unfairness of such an ex·
horbitant tax.
Larry Hagler offered his resignation as
secretary, claiming that his duties as air
raid warden prohibited him from function·
ing as he would like to. J . B. Yatter, a
member for more than three years, was
elected to the position.
The next dinner meeting will be held at
the same place at 6:30 p. m. on October
27th. All vending machine operators are
cordially invi ted to attend and learn of the
values of a WVMOA membershin.
