each license held by him, as a license fee for the succeeding
calendar year.

166. (Place of Business. ) Not more than one place of busi-
ness shall be maintained under the same license, but the Com-
missioner may issue additional licenses to the same licensee
upon compliance with all the provisions of this sub-title gov-
erning issuance of a single license.

167. (Removal. ) No change in the place of business of a
licensee to a location outside of the original city or county
shall be permitted under the same license. When a licensee
wishes to change his place of business within the same city or
county, he shall make a written request to the Commissioner.
If the Commissioner approves of the request, he shall enter an
order permitting the change and shall amend the license ac-
cordingly,

168. (Residence of Borrowers. ) Nothing in this sub-title
shall be construed to limit the loans of any licensee to residents
of the community in which the licensed place of business is
situated; nor to prohibit making loans or advances by mail;
nor at the request of the individual borrowers to prohibit ac-
commodations to such individual borrowers in sickness or in
connection with hours of employment or other such situations.

169. (Revocation of License. ) The Commissioner may, upon
ten days' written notice to the licensee stating the contem-
plated action and in general the grounds therefor, and after
hearing if requested in writing by the licensee before the
expiration of said ten day period, revoke any license issued
hereunder if he finds that: (1) The licensee has failed to pay
the annual license fee; or that (2) The licensee either
knowingly or without exercise of due care to prevent the same,
has violated any provision of this sub-title or any regulation
or order lawfully made pursuant to and within the authority
of this sub-title, or that (3) Any fact or condition exists at the
time of the proposed revocation which, if it had existed at the
time of the original application for such license, clearly would
have warranted the Commissioner in refusing originally to
issue such license.

170. (Suspension of License. ) If the Commissioner finds
that probable cause for revocation of any license exists and
that enforcement of this sub-title requires immediate suspen-
sion of such license pending investigation, he may, upon
three days' written notice and a hearing, enter an order sus-
pending such license for a period not exceeding thirty days.
