Los Angeles, Oct. :.-The announce
ment Of the suspension of production
activities at the big Fam, Us Players

shall have been brought down 10 4 co, e

rank as the film capital Of the world.

only few high-saaried star and d.
rectorS. under long terms contracts
will continue in the employ of the com
panT. The others. many of them well
paid artisans and experts who have
been with the concern for a number OF
years, find themselves thrown out OF
work at only a few days notice. and
they are by no means certain of re.
employment when production is re-
sumed.
In addition 10 the regular payroll

people. who have been accustomed ia
look 10 the big productions at the
Famous Players-Lasky fOv almost Ger.

ing period of real distress--a future
that is almost hopeless.
The authorized announcement by
Mr.. -Lasky says that. With the cxcep-
ton of the four companies now in pro-
duction. ali activities will cease for
ten weeks. or until early in January
and that the studio contemplatcs a re-
organization in the meantime. J. (

1t is generally accepted as notice TO all
but a pitiful few who have been advised
otherwise that they had better look
elsewhere for employment.
This is the first time that the
Famous Players, the most powerful of
all motion picture organizations. has
had complete suspension Of activities.
The suspension. however. did not come
as surprise to insiders. The mount
ing costs Of production. due largely IN
needless extravaganza and waste. could
not be checked. Some radical method
had 10 be applied.
All Hollywood has been stunned BY
the blow. 1t is. feared now that other
studios will suspend or curtail produc-
ton. Lean days are ahead for actors
and extra people who depend upon
chance employment. and their number
rams into the thousands. But. like the
actors on Broadway and the sparrows.

always seem to find a living aud keep

not imagine that they will not be rea-
sOned with-and most successfully is
most eases. Most of them probably
will consent 10 have their contracts
moved forward so that they will draw
nothing during the voorhees, periods.
others may consent To n reduction of
salary. Those who hold out for full
fillmcnt-well, they will not bri very
popular with the company. and that
does not get an actor or director much
in the long run.

WHERE TO Go

During the winter season
there are thousands of Wis
itors to San Antonio who
are unacquainted with the
many recreational and in
teresting spots here. But it
doubtless would be surpris-
ing to know the number of
San Antonians, too, who are
unaware of the entertain
ment facilities and odd
shops and eating places that
the Alamo City affords.
There are delightful little
cafes and tea rooms. restau-
rants and eating places in
San Antonio where people
go for a meal or a tasty
luncheon or a cup of tea
with cake or toast or a
salad or some other appe-
thing food.
Yet there are thousands
and thousands Of San An
tonians as we'll as visitors
who perhaps daily pass by
some of these places with
out knowing what they
have to offer.
There are a number Of
small shops which srecialize
in certain merchandise not
to be found in the larger
stores, ranging from sport
costumes to golf clubs. SOU
venirs. small gifts that have
the San Antonio atmos-
phere, and various other lit
tie products valuable for
gifts or for remembrances
to send to friends or to be
bought for keepsakes of old
San Antonio.
There are other little
shops where luscious fruits
are sold, where the finest
and purest of home manu-
featured candies are for
sale, where San Antonio
sweets, Mexican candies,
nuts and other sweetmeats
are offered in alluring pack
ages and fancy boxes. many
of them typical of old San
Antonio.
For the most part, these
shops are somewhat off the
beaten paths. Just "around
the corner" perhaps from
the usual avenues of COM
merce, although some of
them are on the main high
ways of trade. But all of
them are interesting. all of
them have attractive spe-
cialties to offer and all of
them are part and parcel of
that complete atmosphere
that goes to make up the

that distinguishes San An

New York, Oct. 27.-The promoters
of the Dollar Theater for New York

Theirs has been the idea of bringing
good drama and comedy and music
within reach of the average man and

to pay. 1t was admitted there are
thousands. possibly millions of per-

ambiguity in that announcement line.
You wondered how there ever could
be an increase over the SD of the
opening night. Then it was announced
that Miss Billie Burke's husban
meant that after charging SD for the
opening night there would be a re.
turn to normalcy--if $40 per can be
termed normally.
Heretofore. there have been S11
