2 THE SHOW WORLD FILM MEN WANTED We want Sober, Honest, Industrious Men, experienced in the film business to take charge of our own exchanges to be established in most of the large cities of America. Apply by mail only, stating age, past experience, and give refer¬ ences to Exchange Department, International Projecting and Producing Company, Schiller Building, - Chicago. (Applications will be treated in strict confidence.) THAT’S THE ANSWER From the time this company entered the film field it has repeat¬ edly assured exhibitors that it intended to take care of their interests. We depended to a great extent upon the exchanges treating exhibitors as they should be treated. We believed that when an exhibitor asked for INTERNATIONAL goods, he would receive them, but we have hundreds of letters in our possession from exhibitors disgruntled by the fact that a majority of exchanges are foisting faked, shoddy and duped goods upon them, under the INTERNATIONAL label. This is not true in all cases, but we know that it is true in a majority of in¬ stances. Hence, we are forced to establish our own exchanges in order to give exhibitors what they want, that is, strictly INTERNATIONAL film. These exchanges will handle INTERNATIONAL films, American and European makes, exclusively, and they will be opened as ra pidly as men aM^oc^j^s^nbe^t^ned^ THE EXHIBITOR SHALL GET WHAT HE PAYS FOR INTERNATIONAL Projecting and Producing Company SCHILLER BUILDING, CHICACO
