pf iHllimieBoha 33xecuHuc^ department ^t. ^aul THEODORE CHRISTIANSON, GOVERNOR April 18, 1925. Mr* Marcus Heiman, President Orpheum Circuit, Palace Theatre Building, Nev/ York City. My dear Mr. Heinian: All who realized the times without number that our American actors have given of their time and talents to help raise money for the sick and distressed, have a keen sense of the obligation society owes to the theatrical profession. In the late war, women of the theatre, and men of the profession who were unable to shoulder guns, assisted in maintaining the morale of our fighting men by serving as entertainers behind the battle lines in France. Being one of those v/ho had a lively appreciation of the actors’ services to society, I am naturally interested and sympathetic with the aims of the National Vaudeville Artists which always extends a helping hand to those in the theatrical world who need it. May this organization grow in power and influence. May it also continue to stand for a square deal between managers and artists and the public and to help keep the vaudeville stage free from all uncleanness.
