TRADING
STAMPS

Judge Belliuger, of the United

trading stamp ordinance recently
adopted by the city council Of Port.

constitution Of the United States, as
the trading stamp business was merely
form of advertising, and not a bust.
ness.
The case arose over the arrest and
imprisonment of Ernest Hutchinson,
who was charged with selling trading
stamps to the merchants Of Portland,
without first obtaining a license.
The Salem city council at it's meet
ing last Tuesday evening, read the first
and second times an ordinance copied
after the one declared by Judge Bel
linger to be unconstitutional JusL
what action the council will take un.
der the ruling of the court is hard to
determine at this time.
The members of the Business Men s
Club are in favor of passing the ordi-
nance, although it has been held un-
constitutional by the courts.
Del Dinsmore of the firm of Stock
ton & Company, when interviewed this
morning, said 'The trading stamp
people have never obtained foothold
in this city, and it would be a calami
ty for the merchants and consumers if
they would do so. The trading stamp
company, Of which there are dozen,
opens up and distributes books to the
merchants When they first make
contract they confne themselves to one
of each representatives of the various
branches of business, but, after they
have once opened up, they will then
distribute the book to every merchant
in the city.
"With every purchase customer is
entitled to a stamp, and when the book
is full then it is taken to the trading
stamp company's store and redeemed
in goods of almost every description.
When the stamp people once fasten
themselves on a community, it is al. |
most impossible to get rid of them, and |
they simply drain the stores and pur
chasers, and become a leach The best |
estimate that l can make of the
amount of money that the stamp peo-
pie would make if they started in Sa.
lem would be per cent of $1,OOO,OOO |
annually
Other members of the club express !
themselves in similar terms, and if the !
trading stamp people come to Salem
they will have a hard row to hoe, iudg- |
ing from present indications.
