ROBERT LIEBER SAYS ALL IS WE'LL
In the Movie Industry Regardless of Depression Talk

Production of moving pictures is going
ahead, despite all the stories regarding
the slowing down of production work on
the coast, according to Robert Lteber,
president Of Associated First National
Pictures, Inc, who has just returned
from an extended vacation tour Of the
West coast studios
Mr.. Lieber visited the studio of Charles
Chaplin, whose latest production, THE
Kid" has established a record for num-
Der of showings, length of runs and num-
Der of people played to.
M Chaplin" says Mr.. Lieber, has
just completed another comedy rroduc-
ton called The Idle Class, and l am ex-
pecting q print of it most any day as be
has promises to forward one as soon
as the laboratory can get it ready.
"The picture was originally titled
Vanity Fair but owing to the fact that
there already are two or three pictures on
the market by this name, the new title
was selected The picture will be dis
tributed through Associated First Ma
tional and will be shown at the Circle in
the very near future.
"Mr. Chaplin says he will start imme-
diately on the production of another fea-
ture for First National, the title Of
which has not been announced"
Mr.. Lieber also visited the studios OF
4ddCpbAdluy ANSAAoh
and other independent stars and~airectors
who are making pictures for distribution
through this exhibitor circuit.
The moving picture industry IN gen
eral is adapting itself TO the after-war
conditions probably in less time and in
a more conservative and lasting way than
the majority of American industries" re-
piled Mr.. Lieber TO L question regarding
the condition of the business in all its
phases. >
but there is one thing that Is difficult
to do away with and that is the Excess
sive expenditure of finances in the pro-
ducing of pictures For the past several
years there has been an unprecedented
waste of finances in motion picture pro-
duction and a curtailment of this expendi-
ture is absolutely necessary, now that
the bonanza period is past.
The cost of producing pictures has
been press-agented from coast 10 coast,
and, although there may have been a few
instances when over-zealous publicity
men exaggerated a bit, there is one thing
that is certain-and that is the fact that
entirely too much money has been spent
for the making Of individual produc-
tons"

repeal at once the Miller r-Knight-Adle r
traction law, third, direction to the
Legislature to give the city plenary
power to handle it's own transit at

The Mayor began his statement by
saying:
"On the eve of an election that
means very much to the residents of
this city my last word to my fellow
citizens is that the two questions of
vital interest before them are traction
rule or home rule and the five-cent
fare.
Claims Credit for Fares
"These are the main issues and the
vote of the electorate will be in the
nature Of a referendum upon them.
For four years l have resisted every
effort of the traction interests TO in
crease car fares in violation of the con-
tract and franchise obligations of the
railroad operators to the people of the
city. In the face of every conceivable
kind of attack the fve-cent fare has
been maintained. While I am Mayor
there will be no fare increase
THE right OF the people of the city
to manage their own affairs and to con-
troll their own Investments has been
assailed by the present autocratic and
reactionary state administration. The
principle OF home rule has been
trampled upon and, so far as possible,
nullitied by our adversaries.
''If Candidate Cprran IS sincere in
his professed opposition to the Miller
traction law, with its clear intent to
raise car fares and deprive the city of
control over the $500, 100000 of public
funds invested in rapid transit proper

ton Republican ticket"
