Florerz Ziegfeld, producer Of the

night confirmed report, tclegraphcd
earlier in the day from Chicago, that
he is preparing 10 abandon theatrical
production in 1924, ut which time his
contract with the Actors Equity As
sociation expires. Mr.. Zicgfeld said
the contract, which was made after a
settlement Of difficulties between actors
and producers q year ago, would not
be renewed, nor will any future nego-
tiations be entered into between him
and the organization.
1t is said the climax in the relations
between Mr.. Ziegfeld and the actors
organization came last week in Chicago,
when the Equity representative notified
Manager L. Rosenpaum that the thea
ter in which the "Ziegfeld Follies" was
about to open an elght-wvcns' engage
ment would be closed unless Elizabeth
Chatterton, one of the former show
girls who had been released was re-
instated at once.
Manager Agreed TO Contract
Roscnbaum telegraphed Mr. Zicgfcld
that he had been forced to sign the
contract on those terms rather than
close down the show.
Mr.. Zicgfeld said yesterday Miss
Chatterton had been dismissed because
he had considered her no longer avail
able for the show. She had been with
him five years.
Mr.. Ziegfeld added:
"If George Cohan can't make d 30

if the Equity people had wanted to
play fair they need not have gone to
Chicago to start things. They knew

Mr.. Zegfeld said he would finish out
the contracts with all his casts and
would contine his future efforts to
