r HOLLYWOOD, Calf, March Is
(NANA).-The picture indus
try Of Hollywood, most famous
i i mushroom growth Of big money
return in the worlds industrial
history today, stands In fair condl-
ton to come out of the dark cellars In
which it has been foStered and into the
light. If the attitude Of workers
writer's, directors and actors-Who have
been asked to take so per cent cut in
blind faith from men who have done
but little in the past to build up any
faith Of any type whatsoever, continues
at It's present tempo, the mysterious
overhead" of the motion picture in
dustry MAY come to light after all, with
the result that motion picture making
may be put on sound scale.
Bankers who have grown gray Won
dering why they could not check this
tremendous financial landslide in Hol-
lywood should put their ears close to
the ground and listen carefully to some
OF the questions being propounded the
movie mcguls of Hollywood by some
of the bright young men they have
brought out here to write scenarios and
dialogue for pictures. The contention
Of this group, that there is nothing sin
cere behind producers request for a
SO per cent cut cooperation from studio
workers unless those producers them
zelveS take so per cent cuts on their
own salaries and on their percentages
also, brings to light the general situa-
ton of Hollywoods account books and
gives the banker scme faint idea of
what type emolument the producer re-
ceives for ''risking his health in his
strenuous endeavor to work night and
day" making motion pictures.
At meeting Of the actors branch Of
the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts
and Sciences, the Emergency Commit
tee, q group named to deal with the
producers in their demand for a so per
cent cut. was asked some very peril
nent questions by members present who
sincerely wanted to be enlightened as
to some of the methods of procedure
Of men producing pictures.
The eight weeks pay slash in Holly
wood IS being done in an effort to put
the industry on its feet again in that
length of time. Edward Sturges asked
the Emergency Committee how they
(the comnittee) were to know when a
studio was on its feet through an ex-
animation of its books in view of the
fact that the books reporting on COL
1ections from theaters are kept in New
York.
This question couldn't bring In q
decisive and satisfactory answer.
When Jetta Goudal asked what per-
centage Of the overhead on picture
was represented by an artists salary,
