The Home of the Best in Pictures STARTS TODAY BROWN | DETECTIVE' WALTER CONNOLLY | “Oh,_gefigniealgc;lave" PAUL I'“ K AS Gertrude MICHAEL “Mirrors™ *“Hollywood Parade A PARAMOUNT PICTURE NEWS Repeal has brought its hangovers, not only te the. thirsty but also to club and cafe owners whose headaches have been numerous. Night club operators everywhere are complaining. Those who shared in the. easy money of bootlegging.days are lamenting the passing of the speakeasy., Taxes, license fees, large overhead and costly entertainment has put most night club operators “in the red”. Keen competition among the numerous establishments makes it necessary for them to operate on an expensive scale. Depression incomes have eliminated the heavy spending of the days before prohibition. In Tact, it seems that the government and the liquor, wholesalers are the only ones benefiting by repeal.
