)eMille Joins Ranks of Independents
Who Are Waging War on "M0vie Trust
by United Press Leased Wire

HOLLYWOOD, May II. - De-
nouncing the alleged monopoly of
the motion picture industry enjoyed
by three leading companies, Cecil
De Mile, leader of the Independent
faction of film producers, declared
open war today ON the "movie
trust.
De Mile, who quit Famous Play
ers Lasky last January because the
control of film making and distri-
button was becoming "too central
ized,' announced he would support
"to the limit the plans of theater
owners meeting in Milwaukee to
break the so-ealled picture monop-
oily.
"Control of the film industry is
becoming so centralized in short
time any producer who wants to
present to the public some new fresh
thought in pictures will have to
filter that thought through three
or four controlling units,' dcclar-
ed De Mile.
u will back to the limit any
movement to protect the indepen-
dent producer and exhibitor from
being crushed out of existence by
a combination of producers seeking
to control and monopolize the in
dystrv.'
Il United Artists, which controls re-
lease of films made by Douglas
Fairbanks, Charles Chaplin, Mary
Pickford and the Talmadges, will
not align with the insurgent pro-
ducers, Joseph NJ. Schenck, husband
of Norma Talmadge, and chairman
of the board of directors, told the
United Press today.
Schenck Is Neutral
Schenck declared the position of
United Artists was neutral one.
We are independet producers in
the sense that we sell our pictures
to the highest bidders,'' he said.
1--WE are Independent producers in
tion of independence in the indus
try, but we will not join any other
organization of producers and ex-
hibitors.'
Schenek disagreed with De Mile
and Harry Warner, president of
Warner Brothers, that the control
of the industry was passing into the
hands of the "big three" namely,
Famous-Players Lasky, Associated
First National and Metro. Goldwyn
Mayer. "And l think viii HAYS
is all right" he said. "He is not
dictator, but merely q moral cen
sor of films
Irving Thalberg, Metro -Goldwyn
Mayer executive, ridiculed the ac.
cusations of monopoly in the movie
industry. "lf there is a film trust
we don I know anything about it,
he declared. Pictures worth n
first run will always get il regard
less of the organization making
them. The implication that produc,
ers owning u few theaters in KEY
cities can force their product on
the public when inferior in quality,
is ridiculous"

not want the rest Of the world to
so there. They are quite content
to go ahead INF their own way"
Turning to Hollywood, Collins as
serted that the worlds conception
OF Hollywood is all wrong.
The conception OF Hollywood
which is derived from many highly.
colored accounts Of what happens
there is all wrong" he said. 1T
is not a replica of Montmartr9,
and you see no film orgies.
IF anything, I could only de-
scribe Hollywood as utterly re-
spectable-too respectable, in fact.
There Is no poverty In California
because everybody works hard and
gets well paid for 1t, and there are
no signs OF Boishevism. Very hard
work and very high wages IL the
motto, and there are no signs OF
trade union trouble.
The net result is that union and
non-union men work cheerfully to-
gether, have comfortable homes,
well-dressed wives and automobiles :"
incidentally during the interview
Collins limited that despite his age,
he may yet come back to the
scene OF his former triumphs and
give to the theater-loying public
some OF his wonderful melodramas
which combined mechanical daring
and artistry having never probably
been equalled.
For forty Of the forty-two years
in which he has been engaged as q
producer Collins produced melO-
dramas at the famous Drury Lane
Theater here.
