A.O.L.A.C. Tox Move
(Continued from Page 4)
rive the greatest income from these sources
that an amount consistent with the abilitv
to pay be exacted rather than an arbitrary
and confiscatory amount. The pinball rna·
chines are at the present time subjected to
a · county and municipal tax as well as a
Federal tax and an aggregation of all of
them is far in excess of our ability to pay
the same. Consequently we urge upon the
Gentlemen of the Senate Finance Commit·
tee to recommend the adoption of the pro·
posed amendment so that the pinball games
may remain in the category of . the $10 tax
classification, and at the same time pre·
serving the businesses of thousands of road;
side and small merchants who would be
fatally affected were amusement machines
to be withdrawn from their establishments
by reason of inability to pay these taxes.

Atty. for the Corporation.
On August 25th a special meeting of the
membership of A. O. L. A. C. was held at
the North Star Auditorium to acquaint
them with details of the Washington con·
ference. If A. O. L. A. C. is successful in
the matter it will meim that location owners
will be subject to the $50.00 tax from July
1 to October 31 only without possibility of
refund. Then from October 1 to June 30,
1943, the tax would be $10.00. Counter
machines operating with a penny and lim·
ited to cigarettes as premiums, would draw
a $10.00 per year tax levy.
Test Case on Slugs
CHICAGO-Benjamin Glaser, 45, oper·
ator of a cigar store on Madisoh street,
was held to the grand jury by United States
Commissioner Edwin K. Walker, August
25th, on a charge of possession of metal
slugs intended for use as money in vend·
ing machines.
FrancIs J. McGreal, assistant United
States attorney, said the arrest would pro-
vide a test case to determine whether the
metal slugs can be outlawed.
