"Ch0uUe- SOuyls and MOissi
Play Here IN November

MORRIS GEST is ready to embark
:" on his first fully active season
in two years, in association with his
partner F. Ray Comstock, according
to an announcement sent out yes
terday.
While in Salzburg, Gest completed
arrangements whereby Max Rein
hardt will come to New York to di-
rect the company to be headed by
Alexander Moissi in a production of
Tolstoy's "The Living Corpse" Gre
demption"). This production, which
will be made in association with Ed
gar Selwyn, is designed to celebrate
the one hundredth anniversary of
the birth of the great Russian play
wright and novelist. The same play,
by the way, has been chosen, Gest
reports, by the Moscow Theatre for
its own contribution to the Tolstoy
centennial on it's home stage this
fall. Reinhardt will contribute a
number of his ablest actors to sup
port Moissi in the production here.
The engagement is for eight weeks,
opening in New York, and including
six or eight other cities. The date
of the premiere will be announced
later.
, Arrangements have been made for
the first Canadian and American
tour of the Stratford- upon- Avon
Festival Company. The Board of
The Shakespeare Memorial Theatre
will begin on Monday, October LIST,
in Montreal. The tour will continue
across Canada to Vancouver and
Victoria and down the Pacific Coast
through Seattle, Tacoma and Port
land to San Francisco and Los
Angeles, then returning East.
Nikita Balieff, the Russian ere
ator of Chauve- Seuris and his troupe
will come to New York in Novem-
Der with company largely recru-
tied from new sources, in an init
mate revue, distinctly different in
type from his previous productions
in this country.
A new spectacular Reinhardt
pantomine season is promised season
after next, as well as the American
production of musical play, Beau
tiful Women" by Ossip Dymow in
which Reinhardt is interested. These
negotiations will be carried further
during Reinhardt's stay in New
York before proceeding to Califor-
MIA to begin work on his supervision
of motion picture by himself and
Hugo Won Hofmannsthal, starring
Lillian Gish.
Gest also announces that new
production of "The Miracle" is to
be sent across the continent on a
tour of cities which did not have
the spectacle in previous seasons.

Obliged to give two months notice

flcient for the owners to recruit the
necessary state of blacklegs and as
a matter of fact they have secured
practically on the day following the
declaration of the strike a regular
issue of the papers and periodicals
AS blacklegs they have used Jour

the printing houses and a great
number of unemployed intellectuals
most of whom are quite unable tn
lind employment in the country or
have such low income that thew will
lngly go over to the printing trade
which according to their Judgment
pays quite well. The recommence-
ment OF work in the printing houses
was a great blow to the strikers as
1t has deprived them of the moral
effect which the strike undoubtedly
would have if the papers could not
have appeared for a considerable
time. Besides the renewed work of
the printing shops is making a bad
influence upon the strikers who are
now afraid of the possibility of a
lost fight which under the Esthon-

employment for a long period of
years.
