her about Charlie Chaplin making a
million dollars a year. and she thought
her curls and her pout were worth
Just as much.
Mrs. Widening said il was agreed
that she would sally forth and get
other producers to bid for Mary's ser
vices which would force Zukor to raise
the ante and then she would get 10
per cent. Thus she claimed Sos
600 commission because Mary got a
$4,000 a week contract running for
two years.
Mary. who was in the courtroom to-

Mary's mother testified yesterday
