Here under a new esprit .de corps
the various producing )mits willrhave
that constant physical contact. ex-
change of actors and facilities which
they believe will promote an output
'comparahlc to that of the big film
corporations. The units will be in
loose federation. seeking to promote
that co-opcraiion which they have
heretofore lucked and becoming by
that unity a formidable antagonist to
the so~callcd trust.
A number of prominent independ~
ent producers. once weaned away.
have recently returned to the self~
directing fold. The lineup at United
now includes Maurice Tourneur. Jo-
scpll Schenck. Associated First Na-
tional Pictures. Richard \Vaiton Tully.
Sol Leger. the Talmadges. Buster
Keaton. Blanche Sweet. Arthur
Jacobs. Edwin Carcw and Louis B.
Mayer.
The first formidable gesture of the
independents several years ago failed
largely because its members. many of
them exceptionally talented. hadn't
ripened in business experience. This
failure discouram‘d the financiers and
many of the independents wars force
into larger corporations. .
Conditions have now changed in
the banking world. Magnates have
made a careful survey of the picture
industry. They know better under
what conditions money may be ad-
vanced with reasonable safety.

Many people object to oil on a
salad. but it should be served a little
at a. time. Of course. cream is a good
substitute and a quick dressing may
be made by adding to stiffiy beaten
