Shipman The important thing is, we will have stock,” he explained. “Al Woods wouldn't have to worry. For instance, we would manufacture three kinds of playa one season, the er >k, the sex and the business play. He could then safely choose because the factory has taken care not to manu- facture things people woukin'’t use. That will eliminate failures.” Mr. Shipman came out emphatical- ly for the play which reaches the masses, He contends that “artists have been selfish beasts,” that they have written only according to their own tastes and ideas, failing to reach the people. “The stage is a means for convey- ing thought to the masses," he said. “The worthwhile play has been the one which treats a criticism of Am- erican institutions in @ popular way —The Lion and the Mouse,’ for tn- stance. If you make the masses un- derstand a big thing in an illiterate way, you have still made them un- derstand a big thing. “In every other branch but are we have accepted evolution as a law We must go from the simple to the complex in art also; we must edu- cate the masses step by step.” A division of labor in play writing will not only produce a better prod- | uct commercially but artistically as declares Mr. Shipman.
