L. Bamberger, representing | 500 moving picture men, argued that the Mayor's action was directly contrary to the laws of equity, The many who were obeying the law were being made to suffer for the few who had violated it. Mr. Bamburger described many places that were approved as having in every way complied with the law. He men- tioned one place where the proprietor had spent $25,000 in making it legally safe, only to have his lcense revoked.
