MOVIE EARNINGS
MOUNT SHARPLY
Gain in Theater Attendance
Is Chief Factor in Big
Profits Increase.
special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK, October ga sub
stantial increase in theater attend
ance is producing profits for motion
picture companies well above the
level of the corresponding period of
last year. Poor's Industry and In
vestment Survey points out that bust
ness at theaters is running 10 per
cent to 20 per cent above this time
in 1885 and that the large produc-
ing organizations with theater chains
are receiving substantially larger box
Office returns.
Furthermore, income from film
rentals, which is based on a per-
centage of gross receipts, is climbing
steadily.
1T is estimated that the gross in
come of large chains is up at least 10
per cent" continues the report. And
since expenses do not rise in direct
proportion to increases in volume,
approximately 10 per cent of gross
gains is being converted into net in
come.
Improvement in the quality OF
motion picture entertainment eX-
plains in a measure the better re-
suits. But in the final analysis the
higher theater attendance and motion
picture earning power traces to the
increases in consumer incomes caused
by steady progress toward national
prosperity.
THE threat Of foreign competition,
particularly British, remains on the
| horizon. While this is not likely to
eat materially into the profits of mo-
ton picture companies in this mar
ket, our exports may suffer some over
the long term.
More important are the indica-
lions of further business recovery at
home, with corollary increases in in
dividual incomes. Not only does this
suggest larger attendance at theaters
but it implies that admittance
charges soon may be raised. Under
the circumstances, earnings pros
poets for motion picture organiza-
tons over the next year are bright.

FURTHER DECLINES
IN STEEL REPORTED
Slackening in Heavier Products
and Election Uncertainties
Cited at Cleveland.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, October 90
Daily Metal Trade today says:
Further let-down in steelmaking
operations has accompanied a slack
ening in specifications for the heavier
products. The recession also is at
tributable to the prediction uncer-
tainties.
At midweek the national ingot rate
is estimated at 10 per cent of capacity,
down one point from a week ago for
the second consecutive week. Despite
noticeable slackening at some points
prospects continue promising for
active operations through the re-
mainder of the year.
Demand for heavy steel products is
declining but this is expected to be
offset. by improved buying Of the
lighter products by the automotive
industry. Considerable railroad bust
ness also is in prospect. With talk in
creasing of a probable wage advance
in the steel industry in the very near
future, expectations are that higher
prices on finished steel products are
in prospect.

!. HAIL VICTORY

District politicians, regardless
Of party utilization, rejoiced last
night-the one in assured vic
tory, the other in patient hope.
At the Republican Club Of the
District on Scott Circle, where
there should have been much
gloom as the Roosevelt gains
swept their candidate into the
discard, there was instead a
great deal of hilarity, and the
prediction that maybe every
thing would come out all right,
anyway.
The Democrats, on the other
hand, took their victory with
no little bravado, of the we
kneW-it-all-the-time type.
John B. Colpoys led the activi-
ties for the Democrats, and
much attention was paid Hugh
Grant, United States Minister to
Albania, who came to this coun,
try from that little kingdom to
campaign for the President in
his native Alabama.
