Bills 10 Open Stages
To Child Actors Here
Advance in Congress

Legislation to permit young
children to work in professional
stage shows casts so that more
leading productions could be
played here made progress today
in both branches of Congress.
The House District Committee
approved and sent to the House
for action bill permitting
minors Z years of age or over
to participate in shows. Present
laws forbid appearance of any,
one under IA years of age. This
has kept out of Washington some
|of the best productions.
The measure comes up for
House consideration May 26.
A similar bill was strongly in
|dorsed and opposed at a hearing
10y a Senate District Subcommit-
tee, headed by Senator Pastore,
Democrat, of Rhode Island.
ID. c. Groups Favor Bill.
Support for the measure was
registered by IA witnesses from
the District government, Board
'of Trade and theater groups.
Opposition came from a
spokesman for the Labor Depart
ment and National Consumers
League.
The Senate subcommittee, with
Senator Pastore and Senator
Butler. Republican, Of Maryland.
attending. showed friendly inter-
est in the measure. They planned
to act on the bill shortly, but at
an early hour this afternoon had
taken no formal vote.
Proponents of the measure, who
included three members of the
cast of Call Me Madam" now
playing here. urged relaxation in
the present restrictive child labor
law relating to the stage.
Many outstanding productions,
such as South Pacific" 1.-THE
King and T." and ohers cannot
play Washington because Of the
ban on child actors under IA, they
emphasized.
Cite Protection of Children.
The health. welfare, education
and morals of child actors. a the
atrical spokesmen contended, are
all we'll protected, not only in New
York, but when the big productions
take the road.
Opponents contended the pend
ing bill would break down child
labor standards here for the stage.
This might lead to attacks by
other groups employing young
people. they warned, to relax other
parts OF the city's laws protecting
children.
Senators indicated they would
favor two amendments to the
Senate bill under consideration
which would conform to the bill
approved today by the House Dis
trict Committee.
That bill reduces the minimum
age from IA to 7 years. It carries
a provision that the young actors
may not appear on the stage after
1880 pm.

ton"
The merchant referred to the
fact that the initial redevelop-
ment areas leave strips of stores
untouched on their fringes. Mr..
Searles said the fair thing to do
would be to enlarge the project
areas to include these stores, and
then they could be moved.
Then the question was raised
whether present Southwest mer-
chants would be given first
chance at new store space in the
Iredeveloped area. Mr.. Searles re-
piled they might not have the
financial resources to take ad-
vantage of it, and that in any
case he did not know.
Compensation Questioned.
Another merchant complained
about apartment houses being
proposed for the north end of
the area. asserting residents
would bypass nearby shops and
shop uptown.
Mr.. Searles also was asked
whether businessmen would be
compensated for the worth of
their business cor just paid for

that no Government agency can
compensate for goodwill.

N-USE-The surveys which
show how television has helped
sports have not escaped the eye of
Clark Griffith. A cagey man, the
Mats boss. He was not doing
when this years television sched-
ule of rs games was being mapped
out.
Of the 26 games on the TV
schedule. only eight will be tele-
vised after the baseball season
reaches its mid-point the first
week in July. Six (including
Tuesdays opener and last nights
game) are scheduled for April,
five for May and six for June.
July, August and September will
have three Mats games each on
television.
All but two of the games to
come are night games and the
exceptions are on good, safe Sat-
urday afternoons. The man who
prefers television to the ball park
on the first Saturday in May or
the second Saturday in July is
not likely to be spending much
money with Mr.. Griffith anyhow.
All things considered, it looks
like a canny plan for using tele-
vision to build up the box office.
