ST how congested street traffic in New York City is today may be gleaned from the experience of Johnny Burke. whom Mack Sennett “drafted” from vaudeville for his Pathe movies. Burke had several appointments te pose for photographs the day before he left for California. With a friend he jumped inte a taxi at Times Square to go five blocks to the offices of Topics of the Day. where he was scheduled to be photographed as a guest editor. Traie was congested and time dragged on and en. Presently Burke turned a whimsi- cal grin on his companion and said: “I don't mind living in a taxi, if vou don’t, but the next time I start for a picture-posing engagement in this big town I'm going to bring my razor, T foresee that I shall need an- other shave before we get there!” Judging from the Increased number of lost articles restored to patrons af the National Theater this past week. more people were scared out of their jewelry. as well as wits, by “The TLast Warning.” than one would im- agine. Showmen say that tenseness of situation always affects the mem- ory. In the seventh week of their reign at the Nationzl Theater, the Players already have shown to an gregate audience that would twice fill every seat in the Griffith stadium. and that's not counting the extra Friday mati. tnees, of which four were given.

This “limits he field to such an extent that the 'dependent producer. who concen ‘rates on the production of pictures cather than on the operation of the aters, finds it extremely difficult to se cure a market for his wares, The big producers, on the other hand. are now more interested in their theaters than they are in their pic- tures—with the result that their pic tures are becoming factory products, churned out wholesale without regard o _their individual quality There is one company that is stand ing today on a basis of merit. and that company ix United Artists. At no time has United Artists sought to cor ner the theater market. but has relied on the face value of its productions to demand recognition by the theater vwners and the public alike.

Incidentally. it is revealed in Va riety that of 20,000 theaters of all de scriptions in the United States, there are only 500 that do not show movies.
