SUPERS TRY PETTY "GRAFT"
Management of Burbank Theater Is
OVerWhe by Number of
Extras for Mob Scene

The spirit of graft has even extended
to the stage mob, which comes on two
hundred strong in the last act of the
Judge and the Jury" at the Burbank,
and last evening the Burbank manage
ment found it was engaging fifty more
people than the stage would accommo-
date. At fifty cents a head the amount
rose to a sum which started an in
vestigation.
The supers who were hired and drilled
for this performance were given iden-
tifcation cards when they Were en-
gagged, which admitted them past the
stage door and entitled them to fifty
cents when the performance was over.
They discovered that by staying away
until the curtain rose on the first act
the management of the theater in fit
of despair over the non-appearance of
the supers invariably rushed forth and
engaged men from the ranks who stood
at the stage door to take the place of
the missing. After their friends We're
thus assured of an evening at the the
ater with fifty cents thrown in as a
bonus, the regular supers passed in on
their cards and by virtue of these
same cards demanded the evenings
wages.

VENDERS AND SToREKEHPERS

Just in proportion to the growth the city rre-
pressbe conflict between pedders and storekeepers in
the fruit and vegetable line becomes intense. Both
sides have aired their grievances pub
lie and before the city council The trouble broken
out afresh and both sides preparing carry the
into the council chamber and to fight ii out if it
takes all winter.
Storekeepers with whom the peddlers compete have
obviously good ground for complaint. Business rentals
are high in Los Angeles, and it certainly
that pedders, paying only nominal license fee, should
be allowed to Vend their products in the the
sorekeepers door And 1t undoubtedly is true that
inferior and harmful stuff is sold by vendors buyers being
attracted by the relatively low prices
1t would TO be fair between the storekeepers
and the street vendors that the latter be prohibited
operating in the business of the city but that
be no restriction beyond closely prescribed limit
coming Of venders to the doors of residences outside
business section is convenience to housekeepers and
should not be interfered with.
More important than the interests of either store-
keepers vendors, however Is disclosure made
by the former that deal stuff dangerous to the
public health is sold in the Angeles. That
is question far more worthy of consideration by city
officials than the business vendors ana
the storekeepers.
