They don't only not get paid for

the heart Of David Belascow and his
fellow managers, but seemingly they
don't give a nickel neither" Abe de-
clared. Furthermore. Mawruss. it
says in the papers that IL has been
the custom when actors is hired to
make them agree to accept half their
regular salary during the week before
election day. which is the first week
in November, and 1t has also been the
custom to pay them poor actors half
