PROJECTION "HINTS"
Various projectionists . . . have commented on the absence from I. P. of a section such as "Hints for the Projectionist." I believe that a column of this sort would enable many ... to get better acquainted with the job you are doing. Joseph Berta, Jr. Bridgeport, Conn.
I. P. being crammed with "hints", short and long, anent projection, Mr. Berta might be a bit more specific. "Kink" and other such sections usually are not supported by the field. I. P. columns are always open for any worth while contribution, "kink" or otherwise. — Ed.
CHEER SERVICE CAMPAIGN
Congratulations on the good work you are doing with regard to servicing work by projectionists instead of by the electrics. As a manufacturer I realize (and projectionists and dealers should also) that if the electrics' plan is allowed to go through without protest, all of us will be in the soup. It will simply mean the end of the small and independent business in this field and, finally, the substitution of present projectionists by the electrics' own hand-picked men.
I consider your campaign against electrics' a very fine thing for this field.
Wenzel Company Chicago, Illinois.
SOCIAL NEWS IS BUNK
. . . May I suggest that we see printed in I. P. more about the problems of projection booth than about the social life of some motion picture heads.
David P. Margaretich Madera, California.
Enterprising press agents for unions and labor leaders please take notice. And, Mr. Margaretich, the word is "room", not "booth." — Ed.

... I admire the straightforward way you write your articles pertaining to the problems of the projectionist. I am 100% for you and I. P.
Frank Bruening Lancaster, California.
Double (or 2000-foot) reel situation has been covered from all angles in I. P. No argument from craft or theatres that double reel isn't wholly desirable. At present a case of watchful waiting until distributors decide to spend large amount necessary to (Continued on page 21)
