We would, therefore, appreciate it very much if you would kindly consider seriously the possibility of allowing Mr. Schwartz to continue as tenant in the Loomer Opera House.' "Mr. Hall replied that Mr. Schwartz had caused him a loss of at least $2,000, and that he did not want Mr. Schwartz as a tenant. "We have continued to sell Paramount Pictures to the theater that has regularly used them — The Gem. "We havi attempted to have the owner of the Loonier Opera House rent his theater to Mr. Schwartz. "Whatever controversy there is, is entirely between Mr. Sehwart and the owner of the theater. The booking of Paramount Pictures has nothing to do with the question, since we have no intention of taking Paramount Pictures away from the Gem, which always has shown them, and giving them to Mr. Schwartz who has used only five since September 25th, 1918.
