come from H. Clay Minor. president
OF the National Association OF Bur-
lesque Theater Owners and president
OF the Burlesque Producers A'ssocia-
tion, and result from the unsuccessful
efforts OF those associations to bring
employment conditions back TO a
more normal basis during the past
season
Mr.. Minors statement follows:
"Ihe Burlesque interests of the
United States have with the utmost
reluctance been forced into protective
associations In order to avert pend
ing ruin. The members OF the Ma
tional Association OF Buriesque The
ater Owners, operating fifty theters in
the United States and Canada, are
unanimously OF the opinion that the
only way this can be done is by taxi
Ing over control of their properties
and removing their business from the
arbitrary and unreasonable domina-
ton of the leaders Of organized labor.
which control was lost during the
prosperous times incidental to the In
fiated business due TO the worlds
war. and which now, In the reaction,
has become a hardship.
One full theatrical season under
conditions such as were experienced
during the latter half of the one just
passed would wipe out a business II
has taken Lifetime of the present

TO establish.

have been forced to reduce their
prices In order to meet this COM
petition and secure their share OF
patronage, =
Theater owners have been asked
to increase terms and stand additional
expenses in order that the shows may
live, and have agreed to do so, but
when they ask the unionfzed stage
hands and musicians. who have
shared with them the brief prosperity
they have enjoyed, TO cooperate with
them In meeting the changed con-
ditions for one season, they are met
with insolence. threats Of penalties
of even higher wages and more ex-
acting working conditions unless con-
tracts are signed Immediately.
To do so would be business suicide.
and the theater owners with their
backs TO the wall In defense Of their
business have been forced to declare
the open shop policy for the coming
season.
The wages paid will be more than
the living wage paid for similar SER
vices in any line OF work, and there
will be no discrimination In the em-i
ployment of either stage hands or
