Actress Tells Girls
Who Want To Be
Screen Stars
Don't"

From time to time almost every
abe who has had any connection
yJith the motion picture industry
receives queries from persons who
Wish to become actors or actresses.
1t seems to be the ambition of al
most every motion picture patron
to act for the screen himself or
get a position as actor or actress
tor some friend.
There Is much work connected
with the preparation for career
of any sort in the amusement world.
1t is a mistaken impression that act
ing Is a simple thing that anyone
can do without the slightest trouble.
The work requires natural ability
Plus the hardest sort of study and
real ply sical work. Those who have
tried the pictures. or the stage,
and have found themselves wanting
in almost all the requirements.
nurse the bitterest disappointment.
1t is probably the knowledge OF
some such feeling that has prompted
kathlyn Williams, the star of the
Selig forces, to comment in rather
lengthy manner on the ambition 10
Many young girls write to ME
and ask me how to become actress

Williams. Although the advice Is
not always well taken. | almost in
"A majority of the successful
actors and actresses in motion pic

liminary experience in the spoken
drama, and this experience proved OF
value to them in the pictures. 1t

on the stage. but many Of them en-
tered the studios some years ago
and arose by the power of hard
work and inherent talent. 1t is not
so easy in this day and age to OBJ
The managers Of almost every
studio will inform you that there
are hundreds of applicants listed
who wish positions as actors or ac-
tresses. Every director of motion
pictures receives hundreds of ap-
should be remembered that the ma
Jority Of these applicants are eX-
perienced actors and actresses.

tion picture actors.
And there is none Of the glamour
OF stage life in connection with mo-
tion picture acting. 1t all becomes a
days work with an absence Of the
footlight's glare and the plaudits OF
the audience. The romance is miss
ing from the actual work which
much resembles any other skilled
employment.
THE work Is not easy: the hours
arc long; in many studios the time
clock is punched just like in any
other business institution. and the
romantically inclined young girl. who
dreams OF signal honors as motion
picture actress, is soon disillusion-

Porto Rico Claims Plot
To Increase Ship Rates

Secretary of Commerce Rcdfeld has
made public a statement made by a
committee representing the chamber Of
commerce of Porto Rico, which charges
that steamship companies engaged in
trade with Porto Rico have entered int
combination to increase freight rates.
Figures are given which show that
freight on shoe and cotton goods ship
ments has been increased from :, to "a
cents cubic foot since 1872, and that
sugar has increased from 10 cents per
100 in May, 1914, to q cents per 100 in
June, 1914.
The fact that the increases were made
before the war started indicates, the
Porto Ricans claim. that a combina-
tion exists to raise rates.

NEW YORK, Feb. 0o.--Joseph Letter

his views as to causes of the spectacular
advance in the prices of wheat ava

when Deputy Attorney General Becker
resumes his probe into charges that big
New York bakers conspired crimnally to
advance the price Of bread
Letter. some Of his friends say, has
good reason for exposing some OF the
operators in the Chicago grain pit.
They allcge that some of these opc-
rators "doublc-crossed'' him when he
attempted his wheat corner.
Anxious For Him To Testify.
Letter is the ono man in the country
whose testimony the attorney general
was most anxious to get. 1t Is under
stood that he may make sensational
disclosures as to the recent bull move
ment in the wheat market and its real
causes.
II expect Mr.. Letter to make Il very
illuminating witness said Mr.. Becker
II talked with him for an hour and q
half. and found him exceedingly wei
informed as to the whole situation. re

farmer to the export market and be-
yond In his opinion. the present rise
in the price of bread is due partly &c
natural and partly to artificial causes:
The fact that he mentioned artificial
causes is significant. ! gathered the i'm
preston that he believed some one was
getting more out of the market than his
rightful share-perhaps several per-
sons"

formation received by the district at
orneys office leads to the belief thai
some of the desired witnesses have beer
intimidated. Furthermore. several re-
tail bakers who made complaints
against the wholesalers showed a DIS
inclination to stand by their Original
statements.
A score of subpoenas in cases of al
legged violation of the antitrust laws by
large baking firms were issued by the
district attorney. In only four or fv'
instances did the witnesses show Will

others denied they could give informa
