MOVIE DIRECTORS WAGES
GO FROM SIS TO $4,000
Salaries Vary According to Abil-
ity-Save Studios Much
Expense Money.
By the Associated Press.


HOLLYWOOD, Cal, August Is
An explanation of the wide varia nee
in amounts of the weekly salaries of
motion picture directors was given
here recently at a meeting of film
executives.
The average salary received by the
topnotch' director approximates
81 900 weekly. Other directors-many
of them new in the industry-are paid
lesser amounts, ranging as low as SIS
a week
One producer in speaking on the
question, How much is a director
worth?" said, "a director who does
not know every detail of the motion
picture game. is expensive at any
price. One who does know is worth
81 900 a week, because he will save his
salary a dozen times in the cost of
production.
Through the inexperience Of d.
rector, studios sometimes are COM
pelled to retake the work of many
weeks. This means that the cost of
keeping the company and the me-
chanical staff on the sets for the ex-
tended length Of time was greater than
the difference between what the pro-
ducer paid his small salaried director
and what he would have had to pay a
'topnotcher."

AUTO-PERM|T RING
HITS GOTHAM PLAN
Defenders of Rigorous Driv-
er's Test See 1t Meet
Need, However.
Ry Consolidated Press.

By Consolidated Press
NEW YORK, August 15.-Disclo-
sure this week of a ring for the sale
of automobile operators and chaut-
feurs' licenses TO inCompetents has
given something of a black eye to
New York States ambitious plan for
checking automobile accidents by
rigid tests on the road for all drivers.
But advocates of the plan, now in OPP
GRAFTON in a few other States and
under contemplation in still others,
are warmly defending it, declaring
that with all its opportunities for
abuse, it is by far the most progress
sive idea yet worked out for solving
the traffic problem. While it is true
that some incompetentS have bought
licenses. and perhaps a great many
more than the investigation in this
city has so far indicated, 1t is also
true that thousands of incompetent
drivers have been given square
tests and ruled off the road until
they learned to drive safely.
Moreover officials of the American
Automobile Association point out, the
New York law has teeth for the comb
ing out of incompetents even after
they have been licensed to drive. The
motor vehicle commissioner is en-
powered to revoke licenses of drivers
who fail to live up to the traffic rules
and Commissioner Harnett has been
wedding them out at the rate of 100
to 200 a month since the law became
effective.
Casualties Decline.
Motor casualty records for New
York City have shown a steady de-
cline ever since the policy of testing
all drivers was adopted, and even in
the last few months, when the ring"
was grinding out its licenses for in
competentS, the downward trend has
continued.
This, the authorities say, Is partly
due to the educational work being
done by the police department., but it
IS also due in larger measure to the
wedding out of persons who cannot
drive safely.
In 1928, with approximately 317 500
cars cruising the citys streets, the
number of fatal accidents was 1913,
or 1873 for each II, 1000 cars. In 1924.
with 37S,50 cars, the total dropped
to 1,045, or 27.6 per 10000 cars. For
the first half of 1925, fatalities-with
1000 cars in operation-have been
at the rate of 1:015 for the year, or
22.2 per 10000 cars.
Employees Watched.
The only problem left, authorities
say, is to evolve some scheme of keep
ing the motor vehicle bureaus inspec-
tors and other employees honest. That,
1t is conceded. is something of a job
Besides the "fixers" who have thrived
in the ne.ghborhood of the bureaus
New York offices, there are scores of
automobile schools" where licenses
are guaranteed" that must be looked
into. And it is an open secret that
almost any automobile salesman can
put his customers in touch with an
inspector who will make things

BERLIN HELPS DELINQUENT

Berlin. March 5, JAP, The City Tax Office has unwittingly devised convenient way of enabling dog to get undesirable canines and of escaping the payment of the dog tax. A decree has been issued by the magistrate that dogs for which the tax has not been paid shall be "pawned" and later sold auction.
