theatrical managers are setting an
excellent example to the industrial
manufacturers OF the country. They
have sent their agents throughout
Europe and are arranging to produce
plays. sell music and otherwise take
commanding position in the marts
OF the arts OF foreign countries. For
MANY years the United states was alb
sofutely dependent upon London and
Paris for its plays, but the London
theatrical district Is now studded with
American plays and players, and more
are to go. Paris Is the same and the
song market OF London, as represented
ny the advertisements in the trade
press, are nineteenth American popu-
lar songs. The cinema field. recog-
nized by Americans more easily as tho
moving picture industry, is almost ex-
clusfvely American.
London will have an opportunity to
see plays from the pens of the young
err generation OF playwrights this year
The veterans of the pen are known to
them. but two plays announced this
