An s O s Call
From, the Movies

A letter from Arthur S. Friend says
in part:
To the Motion Picture Editor:
As result of the epidemic Of Span
ish influenza now sweeping the coun-
try, the motion picture business is at
an absolute standstill.
Between IS and 50 per cent of thu
motion picture theatres in the United
States have been closed.
This calamity has come in the midst
of what is normally the prosperous
period in this industry Our season OF
activity in distribution begins about
September and continues until about
May Is.
How many Of those in the industry
will be able 60 Withstand the forces
that are now pushing them over the
borderline into actual ruin will de-
pend entirely upon how long the cpl
demic continues. Those who survive
the ruin that is threatening will have
long and hard period of GONZALES
cence, during which they will need what.
every convalescent needs--a fair, free.
open chance to regain their full
strength.
But now in this crisis Congress-
plans to assess 20 per cent admis-
sion tax on theatres and a 10 per cent
tax on sales, which means that the adj
mission tax is to be actually doubled.
and, the so-called film footage tax OF
the present bill being done away with.
four or five times the amount of that
tax is to be levied by way Of a 10 per
cent impost on the amount received
from the exhibitors for picture service.
The motion picture industry as a
whole cannot survive these taxes.
Either one of them is too much.
No other business in the country has
been levied upon as Congress has
threatened to levy upon us. The taxes
now in force are all that this I'M
fortunately weakened industry can
bear.
The motion picture. like the news
paper, is public institutions part
of the daily life of 100000 Amer
leans.
We believe that the public has -
right to know these hitherto unpub-
lished facts, that it may move as it
sees fit to protest against the blow
Congress is about to strike at the
heart of the motion picture industry

Georges First Interview
Proves Painless

TT SEEMS as though every one we
l. interview says, "Can't you take
luncheon with us ?" or "Can't you take
tea with us?" or "Can't you take din
ner with us?" And we always accept,
because we have learned that men who
will not talk anywhere else will talk
across table
But quite recently number Of per-
sons have told us that they believed
we arranged the hours for our inter-
views so that We would be invited to
dine, lunch or tea, and, as we always
believe other peoples knowledge of
our motives to be more intimate than
our own, we wondered if they were
right.
And that is the reason why, when q
Fox representative called on us and
said, "Would you like to interview
George Walsh?" we said ayes" and
set the time at 6 o'clock--too late for
tea and too early for dinner. But
virtue is its own reward, as Dulcinea
used to say to T. P. A., and this is what
happened:
We arrived at the Plaza promptly
at 6 o'clock. The boy fumbled with
our name, and then said over the
phone, with flourish: ''Miss Wander
bilt, of the Try-bune, to see Mr..
Walsh" We fastened to the trans
mitter to correct the impression thus
made and heard the dulcet tones of
the former shortstop of the baseball
team known as the Brooklyns. This
is what he said: lawfully sorry! Am
in the hands of my trainers and won't
| be able to see any one for an hour
Can't you wait and have dinner with
me? 1t is the only time have Free

RooseUelfs Life in
Film Preparation

The motion picture of the life OF
Theodore Roosevelt is almost com
pleted. William Nigh, the director,
has, after careful consideration, de-
cided to omit the Battle of San Juan
Hill, which when the picture was first
considered, was counted upon to be
one Of the great scenes.
American fighting tactics" explains
Mr.. Nigh, "have so changed in the last
twenty years that an authentic repre-
sentation Of the Battle of San Juan
Hill would now appear ridiculous to
the American public, and moving pict~
ure audiences have become so accus-
toned to seeing great battles on the
screen in the weeklies that any por-
trayal Of the Colonels charge up Kettle
Hill would seem to them insignificant
and piffling. We have to turn to the
other exploits Of the Colonel's life, and
there are many. for the dramatic
action of our picture"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-11-03

So, now, we ask you, were we to
blame? Wouldn't any woman have
said "Yes"? This sounds as though
we were about to go ON and say ~ was
pitifully young and loved him sou
But We really have no intention of
doing so, because, in our interviews At
least, we always stick to the truth.
AS matter of fact, we were not
looking forward with any great degree
of pleasure to our dinner, or, to be
more accurate, to our interview, for
we have Learned that movie stars
with chests that it takes three min
utes to drive around are apt to be
conceited.
But George Walsh isn't. He is the
incest boy, and as he stepped off the
elevator our first thought was GLOW
much better looking you are, George,
off than on" (the screen, not the eleva-
tori. and being our first thought it
was also our first remark.
AS soon as we were settled in the
dining room and had satisfied the
waiter that we were not going to urge
the matter of sugar for our grape
fruit and that we never ordered two
kinds of meat, Mr.. Walsh said bash
fully, "Do you know, this is the frs,
time I've been interviewed, and I hope
I'll acquit myself creditably." Did
this in George seem conceited?
"And this is the first time I've had
any one to dine with me. Pm always
alone" This sounded not quite plaus-
IDLE. Young, handsome, a bank presi-
dents salary, plenty of time and a big
green touring car which reaches from
here to here and lonesome! So we saio
perhaps you are misogynist?"

formidable, so we sat down between
them and began: (Which picture of all

IN the dulcet tones of the man from
the picture concern. "He told me SO,
and don't forget to say that 1t is an
Aircraft picture"
And don't forget to say that it was
shown at our theatre" said the man
from the Rialto. Mr.. Hart said moth
ing. He was saving his voice.
Have you any new photographs that
you can give me?" we asked; "some-
thing that hasn't been used YETI"
Indeed he has," spoke up the photo
grapher. "I'vc just made some new
ones Of him that are great. III see
that you get some."
And here the manager came to the
front and said cheerily: "Well, It's
time to GO to the theatre and make
that speech"
So we all climbed into a Rolls
Royce and rolled down the Rialto to
the Rialto, and there Bill Hart was
seized by 10000 persons who wanted
autographed photographs, and we
never saw him again. So we don't
know whether he likes suffragists.
whether he is engaged to an heiress
from Oklahoma, or what il his favorite
