R'S SALARY BELOW AVERAGE OF MOVIE SIARS Report Shows 11* Person In Movie Industry Paid In Excess Of $75, OOO; Maintain Salaries In Pace Of Deficit Washington, July 18.?The motion picture industry, ewen while suffer ing a loss of $18,589,393 last year, was shown today to have given 110 people larger salaries in 1933 than that received by President Roose velt. Three others equalled Mr. Roose velt in the salary he would have received without his government pay cut?$75,000 The-peak yjarly pay check for the industry, $315,000, was paid to-an. unnamed actor. The second highest, a salary of $296,250, went to an when he or she was working. J These figures were contained to day in a report of NRA's six months' study of the producing, distributing and exhibiting branches of the film industry. Salary Inquiry. The inquiry into the salaries paid film stars was ordered by the Presi dent when he suspended provisions of the motion picture code making payment of "unreasonably excessive inducements to talent" an unfair trade practice. He suspended also the adjoined proviso setting up a I clearing house to prevent "star raid ing" by producers. Sol A. Rosenblatt, NRA division administrator, who directed the in vestigation, recommended in his re port to Hugh S. Johnson the con tinued indefinite suspension of the code provisions dealing with sala ries. He suggested the creation of a committee to report on whether film artistic talent should not work1 for a minimum salary base and a percentage of receipts on their pic tures. The committee also would make recommendations on other employ-! ment and salary problems. Rosenblatt said "no salary is too excessive if the picture produced by the individual receiving the salary meets with unusual public favor as a result of unique direction or ar tistry," but added:. Not in Harmony. "One general indication of the contribution which &lary payments make to the maladjustment of pro duction costs is found in the fail ure of management to adjust salary ranges of executives or artists to changed earning capacity of the I various companies in the industry." Rosenblatt blamed this condition i on trade practices in the production division of the industry. He stress ed two: Namely, unfair competition In bidding for talent and the "star" system by which the values created by producers are turned against them through the necessity of pay ing excessive wages. Re added: "The competition of one producer against another for services of stars through the medium of offiering in creased compensation upon the termination of existing contracts, especially when such offer is made prior to the expiration date of con tract." tends not only"to force salary scales to excessive heights, but tends as well to depress the quality of film entertainment offered to the1 public. "Most of the major producers have made decided efforts to correct the abuses resulting from excessive pro duction costs. Acting individually j and without the aid of any central ized machinery, however, their ef forts have been ineffective." Seme Highlights. Statistics included in Rosenblatt's reports contained these highlights: Of 113 persons who last year re ceived $75,000 or more, 51 were ac tors. 28 directors 22 executives, nine producers, two writers, and one a counsel o YOUNG TAR HEEL FARMERS RETURN FROM WASH'GTON Nine Bethel Hill Young Tar Heel Farmers, accompanied by A.

READY FOR RURAL ELECTRIFICATION The rural electrification of North Carolina win be an important step forward in the agricultural advance ment of the State according to Da- j vid 8. Weaver, agricultural engineer at State College. Thousands of farms over the State are well situated to take advantage of the possibilities now awaiting de velopment. he said, and the time is coming when these farms will be equipped with efficient and econo mical electrical applianoes. Already there is a large potential source of power which may be ob tained by extending rural trans mission lines from the 49 munici pally-owned plants now in opera tion. Still more power can be ob tained by the development of hydro electric > plants along the many streams in the Piedmont area Before a transmission line can be erected with assurance of profitable operation, Jthe farmers' along the proposed right-of-way must guar antee the consumption of a reason able amount of current for each mils of transmission line. Weaver said that In a number of communities the farmers are get ting together and ascertaining how many of their number will use the current if a line is erected . When a sufficient number agree to install electricity, negotiations can be made with the local power sys tems for extending transmission lines. __ j He is making a special study of rural electrification possibilities in North Carolina, and is willing to of fer suggestions to any group of farmers who communicate with him. He hopes to soon have an investiga tor available for every two or three counties to go into the field and help the farmers plan for the ob taining of a transmission line and the installation of electrical ap pliances.
