Edict FIOuted:
SLOT MACHINE
OPERATORS SET
FOR COURT FIGHT
Little Fear of Raids,
Reporter Finds

Slot machine operators in Prince
Georges county, operating in def
snce of the law for the last four
days, today organized to take
their battle with the law to the
courts.
While a few of the operators re-
moved their machines or turned
them to the wall, deciding to obey
the law, others operated openly
but apparently in no danger of
raids, despite the edict of Super
sntendent of Police Arthur w.
Hepburn that the machines
must go.
MACHINES GOING
One soda and beer parlor
visited by a Times reporter, less
than a half block from the
Hyattsville police headquarters,
had four machines in plain view.
The reporter asked the girl be-
hind the counter for some change,
and as it was handed him, asked:
Isn't it against the law to
run these machineS?"
The girl replied languidly:
IT don't guess they are going
to do anything about it. We
are going to keep them operat-
ing"
The nickel machines didn't give
the reporter any return at all.
Then he found a lone, thin dime
in his pocket, and dropped it into
the dime machine, and pulled the
handle, hopeleSSly.
NO CASH PAY-OFF
Clank! The wheels turned, and
up came three oranges, which paid
off $l.3O in checks. Asking to
have them cashed, he was told:
Sorry, we can't pay off in
money now, but you can take 1t
out in trade"
$50 the reporter walked out OF
the place with carton of cigar
ettesD
Two taverns near the Queens
Chape. Airport had a number of
machines operating in plain view.
From another resort operator,
who announced that he intends
to keep his machines running,
came the statement:
I've got a big investment
here, and don't intend to lose
it. I've paid license to operate
these machines for a year, and
I'm going to operate them for
q year
IF they try to raid me, I'll
take the case to court, and fight
1t through. They told me this
was legal when they gave me
my license and it's no different
now"
From another source it was learn
ed that some OF the operators, as
well as the owners of the ma
chimes, are planning to take court
action if the ban is placed in ef
feet.

les. the National Association of
Food Chains, and numerous groups
of privately owned and independ-
ent food stores.
Government reports show that
on November 1, 1888, there We're
1893, Isl 900 pounds of butter in
storage in this country. The five
year (1933-1937 inclusive) average
storage supply on November / was
1914 pounds, a difference of a.
6O3, 900 pounds of butter, which
amounts to an excess supply of
Just about ten ounces per person.
Experts in butter merchandising
express the opinion that in order
to maintain sound butter price
structure next season, the present
large supply must be reduced to
an approximately normal level
within the next two months. The
price received by all dairymen is
largely upon butter
prices. With one-quarter of the
national farm income coming from
dairy products, the relation IF but
ter prices to farm prosperity, and
in turn to national prosperity, is
obvious.
