MARY PICKFORD IS ~ HIGHLY INDIGNANT Blames Wall Strest for Wage Reductions Hollywood, Cal, July 15.—(UP) “—The same Mary Pickford who, in the role of a little girl with long curls has amused mlll'h! with fer whimsicalities, came forward in a | new role today. She forgot all about her curls and | that sort of thing and spoke a lot of biting words about the money | power and Wall street. She blames Wall street for the wage reduction made in the movie industry and specified that at the Fairbanks-Pickford studios wages | are not being cut. “It was Wall street, controller of | the industry, which gave the order for the cut and precipitated the | present crisis,” said Miss Pickford. | “Market manipulations, extrava- gant mergers, and costly programs | placed some of the leading film | companies in precarious positions | and because a few were sick, Wall street called for a general cure. “Neither Mr. Fairbanks, my hu~- “band, nor myselt agreed to wages at our studio, We did not think such a measure was necessary. Bad pictures, in which costly actors | and expensive sets were used and ! which later turned into ‘box office flops’ in my estimate have caused the real trouble with the screen | today.” } Calles Sends Troops to Hunt Down Murderers Mexico City, July 15 (P —Special officers have been sent by the Mexi- can government to Guadalajara with instructions to capture the murder- ' er or murderers of Arthur Brewer, American coal merchant, who killed last month. In making thi announcement, today, the foreign office added' that the federal govern- ment has been making every effort to apprehend and punish the guilty | person or persons. | (Arthur Brewer, former Harvard football star, was killed at Guadala- | jara June 3 during a quarrel over business matters. The United States embassy at Mexico City sent three | notes to the Mexican foreign office in connection with the case. The latest of them on July 1, in reply, it | was stated that the government hild . referred the matter to competent authorities.) Claire Windsor Reported | Deciding to Bring Suit | Los Angeles, July 15 (#—The Ex- aminer says Claire Windsor, fiim star, has announced her intention of | today affixing her signature to a di- | vorce complaint against her actor | husband, Bert Lytell, in which she | will charge mental cruelty, A property agreement will be signed by her at the same time. The couple dined together last night as the guests of mutaal friends, Edwin Carewe, the. director, | and his wife. Later they went to | a theater together. Lytell says he had signed several | deeds over to his wife and would | sign a cash settlement today. | Prince of Wales fiakes His Debut as an Actor | London, July 15 (P—His face | smeared with what is known as “'grease paint No. 5” until it was as vellow as a golden: chrysanthemum, | the Prince of Wales took the role of ‘ a film actor this afternoon & the creation of the picture "Pmm!'m-‘ brance.” This film is being pro-w duced by the British Legion and will be exhibited on Armistice Day. “This is terrible,” declared the keir to the throne,” as he saw him- self reflected in a mirror. On being assured by the director | that he now had a perfect photogra. “ phic face, the prince laughed and sald: | “Come on. Fire away.” Prohibition Referendum | Petition Filed in Mass. | Boston, July 15 (—A petition | providing, in effect, for a state-wide referendum on the 18th amendment was filed at the state secretary's of- fice today by the constitutional lib- erty league. The petition provides for submis- sion fo the voters of each congres- | sional district at the next regular state election after the law becomes | effective the question of whether the senators and representatives in con- gress from Massachusetts shall be requested to support a constitutional amendment to repeal the 18th amendment. The measure would | provide that the state secretary tab- ulate the votes and transmit them to | each of the legislatures for their | guidance. $20,000 Lawsuit Against Autoist Is Withdrawn | Bridgeport, Conn., July 15 (B —A | $20,000 damage action brought by Lilllan Lockwood of Stamford against William Cornell, also of Stamford, was withdrawn in supe- rior court today.
