EXPLANATION!
Paper is an e ssential war ma-
terial. It is working for Victory.
The d e mand for paper is so stu-
p endous that its civilian u se mu st
be greatly curtailed.
Publishers are limited b.oth a s
to the quantity and quality of
paper they m ay u se. In orde r to
comply with the governme nt's lim-
ita tio n s .on pape r , and still m a in-
tain its full circula tion, THE RE-
VIEW finds it n ecessary to u se a

economy is in coope ration with

Baltimore smokers can expect an in-
crease in cigarettes this month, a survey
of local tobacco j obbers has indicated. The
anticipated increase, however, still will
leave the amount of cigarettes available for
civilians far short of that amount of pre-
war days. One of the large tobacco manu-
fac turers wiU send up to 80 per cent of the
J une quota, it was stated by a prominent
cigarette jobber. He said that the firm will
receive increases from three other manu-
facturers of popuIar brands. The total will
amount to about 85 per cent of the original
standing orders.
Another wholesaler said the firm antici-
pates a 50 per cent increase in allotments
from most of the large manufacturers.
The anticipated increase in allotments
of cigarettes is encouraging, and gives
promise that local operators of cigarette

machines will soon be able to
give much better service with their ma-
chines than has been possible for some
time.
Some cigarette operators, who had been
doing a fine job, found it necessary to dis-
continue a good number of their machines
and pull them in. They now, however, an·
ticipate they will resume operating most
machines in their locations. The picture
looks more promising for cigarette opera-
t Oni.
Gwynn O~k Amusement Park, the third
of the larger amusement spots in this city,
is getting excellent patronage despite the
un seasonal cool weather which has obtained
here. The Arcade is well patronized. This
park, like the other two amusement parks
in this area, maintains some 200 Arcade
machines in operation. Gwynn Oak is un-
der the personal management of Arthur B.
Price.
The coin machine arcade is in full oper-
ation at Carlin's Amusement Park. The
official opening of the attractions is now
in full swing. Automatic phono collegian
dances are under way the first four nights
of the week.
, With the June weather becoming more
favorable, the attendance has been excel-
lent and better attendance is looked for in
the coming months. The park is under the
personal management of John J. Caclin,
founder and owner of the fun spot.
A substantial coin machine Arcade has
been added to the several in Baltimore by
the formal opening of the summer season
at Bay ShoI;e Amusement Park.
A feature of the Bay Shore Park is its
enlarged bathing facilities. It now has
faciliti'es for the accommodatIon of 15,000
bathers, a substanti'al increase over the
number carried other seasons.' The Park
has some 200 games operating for the
season.
