“The Coin Machines Merry-Go-Round”By Bill Gsrsh

PETRILLO PROMISES PEACE

The above headline probably appeared in your daily newspaper. It

brings hone a prediction made here sometime ago that a compromisewould be effected with the record manufacturers by Local 802, AM,before or after the start of the Congressional Investigation. Un-der severe questioning and much table pounding on both sides be-tween Petrillo and Senators, Clark, Wheeler and McFarland, Petrilloadmitted that he would atter.pt to effect peace and that he wouldmeet with 'the executive board of Local 802 on February 1st in NewYork, to discuss the compromise. After that it is expected he

will meet with the record and transcription manufacturers and arrange some sort of

royalty per record basis. This is the time for the co inphono men to come into the pic-ture to make sure that the record manufacturers do not slap this entire charge over on-to the operators. If the royalty is very small this should most certainly be assimil-ated by the imnufacturers. If it is larger than expected some compromise deal shouldbe instantly put into effect with the phonops. It seems that one reason Petrillo hasfor this compromise at this time is to go after bigger game - the movie people. Healso stepped into a very irritated labor situation this time where other professionalmen are losing out daily and forced to enter into any type of war work to exist.Petrillo was therefore extremely careful not to raise the ire of the public generallyby keeping his musicians as a separate, lofty body of men who can be taken care of re-gardless of the present labor difficulties. As far as the coindustry is concerned thismove for peace is the best that could have come about for the operator is just as an-xious to see the musician get a rightful share and the musician is just as anxious tohave the operator on his side. We hope that everyone will be completely satisfied whenthe compromise is put into effect.

PRICE CEILING

Tho there never has been a definite price ceiling announced out of Washington on usedcoin machines - there was an announcement (as reported by The Cash Box some months ago)to the effect that all service charges would have to maintain a definite price ceiling.In short, if any charge was made for certain labor or repair work, this ceiling pricewould have to be maintained. It was and still is believed by some that the coin machineindustry was also affected by the price ceiling ruling that applied to used machineryof all types. A much more definite announcement will have to come out of Washingtonprior to setting up price ceilings on used equipment. This is one industry that hasa’lways existed on supply and demand and price ceilings in this case would require avery liberal interpretation.

IRD ON F.P .

The Internal Revenue Department continues with its own interpretation for F.P. gamesas to what constitutes a ’’gambling device” and what can be considered an ’’amusementmachine”. In short, as reported here many times before - if the Free Plays are paidoff in merchandise or cash - the game must feature a $100.00 license, for it is thenunderstood to be a ’’gambling device”. And likewise, if the F.P. ’s are not paid off,then it is an ’’amusement machine” (just like that). We wish that New York's Mayor LaGuardia and some of the other P&yors and Governors thruout the country would also ac-cept this interpretation. The fact that the IRD won’t change this ruling is readilyunderstandable. The ruling itself should be used to open more territory.

PORTABILITY

Probably the most outstanding factor in the success of the coin operated machine hasalways been its portability. In short, the op could move it to wherever he found con-ditions best suited to its operation. This major fact is now proving its importanceto the trade in the 17 eastern states where A, B and C gas ration cards have practical-ly been eliminated in an effort to save whatever gas stores there are on hand at thistime. (Our item in this section ’’Cut Your Route” a few weeks back suggesting that alloutlying machines be pulled in, if needed, proved of real value to the coinmen in these17 eastern states.) The outlying machines will not receive the play they should get,at least not in these 17 states. In the rest of the country, too, outlying equipmentshould be concentrated into one easy-to-get-to traffic center by the operator. The out-s^stndr.ing fact remains - that the portability of coin equipment has saved the livlihoodo$: many an eastern seaboard coinman at this critical moment and will continue to savecoinmen everywhere ih the country.

EASTERN ROAD SPOTS CLOSE

Immediately after the announcement that A, 3, and C gas ration cards would be held

down to the most essential driving manjr noted road spots folded. Newspapers reported

how some of the best known road spots, that had served an average of 175 to 250 people

on Wednesday night (the evening prior to the pleasure driving ban) had but 12 and in

irany cases less people in their places on the following Thursday evening. Some spots

decided to remain open and let go their orchestras. There will be a demand for co in-

phonos from many such outlying spots. Such installations will have to be on a rental

basis. It appears now that the naborhood tavern is in for the best business in its

history (in the 17 eastern states) and coingames will get their share of the increase

in these spots. (latest report on this ruling from outlying eat spots is that as long

as there is no dancing past 11 P.M. and complete meals served these ''restaurants" willbe okay to drive to. But general scare handed public by OPA investigators threatening

to and already seizing gas ration books may take some time to overcome. Seme of the

New Jersey spots featured large ads explaining that OPA had agreed to this feature. It

is also reported that 3 miles is limit of drive to eat.)

$25, 000.00

Pat Buckley of Buckley Trading Post, Chicago, this past week advised us that the firmhas done business amounting to approximately $25,000.00 thru The Cash Box. Their sub-

scription is less than a year old. To think that for an expenditure of but $48. peryear a firm can do $25>000. worth of business is nothing short of miraculous. But, the

facts are there. And tho we do not promise the same to every subscriber we can defin-itely state that the greater majority will find The Cash Box the most profitable in-

vestment they have ever yet made.

MECHANICS

Today, more than ever before, mechanical ingenuity and resourcefulness are great fac-

tors for continued, successful operation. Those mechanics who are capable of replac-ing the rare and expensive tubes by a vei'y simple re-wiring job so that low priced andeasy to obtain tubes can be used instead are proving their worth to the firms employ-ing them. This bit of resourcefulness is already jeing accomplished by many. Some me-chanics are even rebuilding games entirely from scratch. Others, by simple changeshere and there, are maintaining amplifiers, which are gradually becoming a problem.As long as screened glass and wood cabinets can be obtained - old wire and parts - in-genuity and resourcefulness will help keep this business rolling. Pay closer atten-tion to mechanical details. Eliminate waste.

SWAMPED

Mkny weeks ago, during our visit to Chicago, we called at the factory of United Mfg.Co. where we met with Harry Williams and Lyn Durant and showed these two energetic andingenious coinmen a copy of The Cash Box. And they subscribed. This past week we re-ceived a letter from Harry Williams. It advised us that The Cash Box was the one andonly medium wherein the firm had advertised their newest revamp - "Grand Canyon"."And", writes Harry, "we have been swamped with business ever since." (The Cash Boxswamped ~this firm with business for an expenditure which, we feel most certain, Harrywill admit is many, many times less than what he has ever previously spent to popular-ize any of his revamps.)

DEPOSIT RACKET

For sometime we have been debating with ourselves whether to bring to light this new-est racket which has developed in the coinbiz. We were not going to hide it under abasket because The Cash Box reaches coin machine people only and if there is anythingscummy around the family - let’s get together and clean it out. It’s our family andwe want to keep it a clean family. This past week we received three more letters re-garding what we prefer to ca 11 the "deposit racket". There are a very, very few cer-tain films with extremely small finance who insert advertisements in leading publica-tions featuring exceptionally fine merchandise, much in demand, at extremely reasonableprices - which naturally deluges them with orders - and DEPOSITS. In most cases thesefirms do not have this merchandise. They are planning to pick it up here and there onreceipt of deposits, which actually becomes their working capital. If they are luckyenough to pick it up you will get what you ordered, provided of course, that thesefirms make some sort of profit on the transaction, regardless of how small it may be.

If they can’t pick it up (and, by the way, they'll ship anything, regardless of condi-tion) you will eventually, get your deposit back - but not until some time has elapsed,which is just what this sort of -firm wanted, so that they could use this deposit moneyto continue to do business. (A long time ago we called for establishment of a Credit

i Bureau. Such actions will always exist until the leaders of this industry get togetherinto a group to eliminate them and save themselves money as well as find themselvescapable of doing better business without distrust predominating.)
