Sc To ‘Second Hollywood’ By GEORGE TUCKER (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, March 20.—With a tentative program of 40 | tures a year, the east has reset; its teeth in movie production, and} moving towards a Hollywood of its own. Not since Paramount pulled up! stakes at Astoria and transtere) six trainloads of equipment to Hollywood has the east known! any activity beyond desultory; shooting. But with the complete} rehabilitation of Biograph and absorption of the Long Island; plant by which controls the! Eastern Service studios, new life: ‘has been injected into the indus-| try here. The Eastern Service will spend $5,000,000 in major j productions th year, each cost-j million. RKO will come east and make} features at the Biograph| studios in the Bronx, eure Productions . J. Yates, president of Con-; af age Film industries and head | of Biograph, is of the opinion, cooperative production between} east and west is now only a mat- | ter of time. H Availability of talent, in view | ot New York’s proximity to the | stage and radio fields, and the cutting down of overhead by vir- tue of studio rental on a “per, day” basis are pointed to as argu. | ments in favor of eastern pro-| # duction. | More than 50 studio executiv: and representatives have inspec ed .Biograph within two months with an eye to early production. | The Bronx studio plant alone is capable of handling 20 major pro-! ductions a year. Eddie Dowling and George M.; Maynes, Service Studio executive, ay Astoria can be made to haj-} dle any amount ‘of production.
