2 THEATER BOYCOTT PLAN IS SPEEDED BY MOVIE CRAFTS Producers Capitulate to Actors But Ignore Demands of Studio Workers’ Hollywood, May 11.—(?)—A picket army of 340,000 in front of theaters in the nation’s major cities by night- full was the goal of the strikers Fed- erated Motion Picture crafts Tuesday. Charles Lessing, federation head, said he hoped to have the aid of the American Federation of Labor and the Committe for Industrial Organi- zation in obtaining the pickets. “We hope, unless our demands upon the film producers for a union shop are met,” said Lessing, “to spread the theater boycott to other sections ct the country.and to have more than 2,000,000 pickets on duty within the next 10 days.” The cities listed for the immediate campaign are Detroit, New York, Chi- cugo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Phila- delphia, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bos- ton and Cincinnati. Picketing of theaters here and in Los Angeles be- gan Sunday. Pat Casey, producers’ labor nego- tiator, advised Lessing Monday night the studios were willing to have the F.M.P.C. members return to work at once “and receive the same wage in- creases which have been given to the other unions.” The F.M.P.C. has insisted upon recognition as the sole bargaining egency before entering wage or other negotiations. Meanwhile the Screen Actor's guild encountered little opposition in sign- ing up studios for a guild shop. Six major studios capitulated Sunday. This was increased to eight Tuesday with two individual producers, Sam- uel Goldwyn and David O, Selznick, giving notice of agreement. Since all players now must belong to the guild, there was a rush for membership, 500 signing up Monday. Among new members were Greta Garbo and Jean Harlow.

Ed Reich, Bismarck, would have been much better off Tuesday if he hadn't changed his mind as to what mode of travel to use in going east Monday. Reich, Deputy Sheriff J. A. Kohler explained, decided to leave Bismarck Monday morning and forthwith proceeded to the depot to take the train. But once at the depot he found a car belong- ing to Dr. W. L. Diven con- @eniently parked there, not in use, and decided to travel by car. Thereupon, Kohler said, Reich appropriated the.car and began his journey. Everything was going all right, but just west of the state peniten- Means of Traveling Lands Reich in Jail tiary Reich collided with a car driven by Imogene Flanagen, Lin- coln, Neb., causing slight damage to each car.
