City Opens Tax Drive On Devices 1000 Delinquents Face Prosecution By William F. Feist Aroused at the failure of more than 1000 operators of bowling alleys and coin-inserted amusement machines, including juke boxes and pinball machines, to pay their 1948 tax on these devices. City Treasurer Ralph W. Pitman yesterday threatened prosecution of the delinquents unless they pay up at once. Pitman said he has instructed his chief license clerk, Alfred Carson, to proceed with the preparation of the warrants, pointing out that the tax is due Jan.

Awakened by smoke and heat, Matthews ran to the street and shouted an alarm. His cries were heard by his brother, Frank, 39, who awakened his wife, Gertrude, 32, and their daughter, Gerry, six. By then the inner hallway was a barrier of smoke and fire.

They fled to the kitchen of their second floor apartment. AWAIT FIREMEN Meantime Mrs. Elizabeth Duffy, 54. awoke in her second floor front apartment. She stepped Into the hallway but was forced back by the FeilowshiDS Three educators from the Phila LIABLE TO FINE, JAIL A city ordinance subjects the tax delinquents to a $100 fine or a 30-day jail sentence for failure to pay the fee.

Quinn, the snerk concession promoter, slipped Into The Inquirer's City Room tr.e other night and. playing the role ol Fraud to the hilt, tried to high-pressure Ringling Brothers, Barnum Bailey officials ir.to staging the 1948 circus at and Cayuga sts. Learning the name of the night city editor, he used an Inquirer telephone make call to the circus' general agent, Waldo Tupper, in New York, posed as the night city editor, spoke highly of Quinn, said the circus had no choice but to pitch its tents at and Cayuga (where Quinn only would reap profits from concessions), and incidentally ran up a phone bill of $3.65.

He said he had the backing of the "top county official" (meaning Sheriff Austin Meehani and the Mayor. But the whole phony act was meaningless because Inquirer men listened in on the conversation, took it dovi verbatim, tipped off Tupper. Several days later, the circus was given permission to go back to the old grounds and Quinn was cut in the cold with his mask off. Now The Inquirer would appreciate a check for $3.65 from Mr. Quinn.

Judge Joseph Sloane wa? in top form the other day in Quarter Sessions Court. Prisoner was at the bar to be sentenced on larceny charges. "How long were you in the Army?" the judge asked the young man. "Three years, two months, four days, three hours and two seconds," said the young man. "You're either a very good mathematician or a very good liar," said the judge.

Another defendant came up. Same charge. "Young man, said the judge, "you have only one virtue. It's a virtue that all women admire. You're thin." Accusations, counter-accusations, and bad names are still being tossed around by parents of children in the Main Line's Bala School.

Trouble has been popping for three months, ever since a group of parents became angry about alleged "curlings" and rough treatment cf their, youngsters, called for a full-scale investigation by the School Board. The Parents Council (high tone for PTA) decided to soft-pedal the issue by conducting a survey. Survey was conducted by a Penn professor. Results, which went against the complainants, were announced jubilantly. But many parents, we understand, still think that the results were much too patly presented.

Mayor Bernard Samuel has a keen eye for detail. He was posing Jor neics photographers at the opening of the Home Show. "You forgot your flash bulb," he cautioned one of the cameraman. The busy lensman seemed to blush, muttered thanks, inserted the bulb, got his shot. This year is the centenary of the founding of Hahnemann Medical College.

So, some items from the archives: Bill chartering it was by Governor Francis Rhawn Chunk, April 8, 1848. First session held in a building in the rear of 229 Arch with 15 College moved to 1105 Filbert In 1S49; the Reading Termiral now covers the grounds on which the old college stood.

Franz Balkie ordered a to the city." Meanwhile, Pitman said his office has been conducting a campaign to collect as much of the arrearage as possible without resorting to prosecution. VICE SQUAD ASSISTS Not only has he ordered his own men to uncover as many delinquents as possible, but he is receiving the assistance of the police through Inspector Craig Ellis, head of the vice squad. Ellis men have come across scores of unlicensed machines in the course of raids, with the result these operators have been compelled to pay the tax. The ordinance imposing the tax provides for the payment of $20 on each alley or coin-inserted amusement device. A penalty of 6 percent a year is imposed for non-payment on Jan.

1. SOME MACHINES EXEMPT Pitman is also considering placing a seal on each unlicensed machine, which would be removed when the operator has settled his account with the city. The tax does not apply to coin-operated machines dispensing photographs, cigarets, candies and similar merchandise. Collection of revenue from bowling alleys and the machine amusement devices, as of March 31. totaled as against $154,620 In the same period last year, a drop of approximately $17,000.
