The Listening Post (Continued from page 83) in Rome. Not so long ago the Italian capital was filled with them. The Premier told them that they would all have to go to work, and that if they did not find congenial employment he would find work for them in Tripoli or breaking stones in places where they might not be so eager to go. That was just the way to talk to these people. It is surprising how soon they got down to doing something. "Italy is a remarkably fine background for pictures, and I think that the interesting exteriors made in the locale in which the story is supposed to take place will be appreciated by all who see the finished work." "Acting for motion pictures, no matter how great the actor, is not worth a larger salary than $500 per week." This, coming from Conway Tearle, one of the highest paid un-starred actors in films, offers a startling remark at this time when salaries are shooting skyward. "By this I do not mean that those actors who receive large salaries are not in practically every instance entitled to every penny they receive — and more," says Mr. Tearle. "I do mean, however, that acting itself is not worth more than a weekly salary of $500, no matter who the actor may be. "No motion picture player receiving a large salary in pictures obtains this amount because of his or her acting ability. However, the drawing power of the actor or actress does warrant a full share of the profits on a screenplay. It is this drawing power that makes a player worth much more than $500 weekly to the producer." I George Stewart Hurt t's too bad that a nice young boy like George Stewart, Anita's brother, became involved in what promised to be an unpleasant scandal. The movie set in New York was horrified one morning to learn that George was in a hospital suffering from severe injuries inflicted upon him by his brother-inlaw, Ralph Ince, the director. The story of the fight between the two was rather vague. The rumpus happened somewhere in the road-house section of Westchester County during an automobile ride. The fact that Ince and George's other sister, Lucille Lee Stewart, are headed for a divorce gave rise to the rumor that a family quarrel started the battle.
