' Because of the eatrema need of the
city for more funds, the members of
tho lloanss committee . are thinking
strongly of Introducing an ordlnanoa
Imposing a license . on cigar alot ma
chines. While it has not been decided
whether such action will be taken, tbe
matter baa been considerably dlsoussed
sad many of the councilman are salt to
be 'In favor of suoh an ordinance.
- "There are In this city In the neigh
borhood of 1,600 cigar machines," aald
Chief License Collector M. X Mcach
era thla morning. If a llcenae of 10
or even 15 per quarter on each machine
waa Imposed H would bring In a large
revenue. Of course. If a license 'waa
imposed many of the ' machines would
be put out of oommtssjaon, but If tha
number dropped down to only LOfto, at
$10 a quarter, the income from thla
source would be $40,0 per year."
Mayor Williams stated- that Such a
license had bean auggestad, but that no
decision had aa yet been., reached re
garding the matter.
Auditor Devlin said that If such an
ordinance could be passed It would bo
a good thing, bot that he thought It
would bo Ulegal in thla ntate.
