The producers' letter men¬ tioned above which was mailed special delivery to all employed writers Sun¬ day, April 26, 1936, could have been written in 1919, 1924 or 1925 by the Shubert or Erlanger attorneys. The Guild organizations owe much to Equity for its pioneering. In 1918, Equity's members signed a pledge prom¬ ising to abide by the decisions of the Council, and each signer made himself liable, in case of violation, for a penalty up to $1,000. At the time of the for¬ mation of the Guild, this same idea was incorporated in the Guild contract signed by all members. We recommend “The Revolt of the Actors" to our friends among the pro¬ ducers, A strong sympathy for the al¬ ways recurrent economy wave impels the recommendation. A study or even just a reading of the book would have saved the time spent in producer-writer meetings on the lots during the past few weeks. It also would have prevented the waste of about twenty pages of trade-paper advertising, plus any fees paid O'Melveny, Tuller and Myers—as it explains that equally capable at¬ torneys, including Bainbridge Colby and Nathan Burkhan, arrived at the same erroneous conclusions more than fifteen years ago. O N May 2,1936, the producers issued the following statement: “There is not the slightest change in the posi¬ tion of the motion picture producers with regard to proposals to establish a closed shop for screen writers. Any at¬ tempt to cripple the industry by in¬ voking Article XII will be fought to the limit; any effort to curb the free and independent relationship of producer and writer will be resisted at any cost.'' It is possible that there is some merit in this position, and, under certain con¬ ditions, the talent branches would like to see it tried. Therefore, we pledge ourselves that: On the day that the Motion Picture Producers' Association is dissolved; that block booking is abandoned as an in¬ dustry policy; when Elder Hays is returned to the Republican P arty; when the Academy of Motion Pic¬ ture Arts and Sciences and the Call Bureau are abolished; when the Motion Picture relief fund is ad¬ ministered by talent groups; when the option contracts becomes optional on both the producer and the artist—Then, on that day, we will dedicate ourselves to working for c 1 A free and independent relationship" in negotiating between talent and producers.
