HOUSES

As direct result of the crusade
against unsafe, unsanitary moving pic
ture theatres waged by the Evening
STAR last fall, comes the decision OF
the building department and bureau of
combustibles to discontinue the grant
ing Of licenses to all houses that are
not built solely for theatre purposes
A letter has been sent out to the
proprietors of fifteen theatres that
their licenses will not be renewed at
the end Of the theatrical season. This
means that after July / no store
'front.' lnoving-picture houses will be
relicensed in the city of Newark.
1t is necessary for the building de-
partment and the bureau of combusti-
bles to approve "a license before It is
Issued by the license committee. Both
departments, as well as the Board of
Health and the Tenement House Com
mission, have been making an inves-
tigation OF the moving picture theatres
for some time and have now agreed
that the only way to make them safe
is to put out of business all those that
are not in buildings erected for the
purpose.
The letter sent out by the building
department is as follows:
In reference to the building
being used for Nthe purpose OF
a moving picture theatre, this
department viii not sanction tho
further use OF this building for this
purpose after the closing of the pres
ent theatrical season or the closing of

are notifying you of our intention at
the earliest possible moment"
There have been no licenses issued
for theatres in dwelling houses AMI
