"'Inside Burns and Allen's former full sal- ary was $2,500. Under .the agree- ment the circuits cut the. team down 25% to $1,750. Loew held si, two- week commitment on the act at the $2,500 figufe. Before tiaking the Paramount week at $3,500, Burns and Allen offered themselves to Loew for the two weeks due at $2,^ 600: lioew said $1,750 would be all it would pay. ' The Par offer was then accepted* RKO's burn-up, as voiced through Franklin, ivas over Its failure t6 obtain Burns and Allen for the Mu- sic Hall about two months ago. -At. that time the team was under. & <yr blanket Paramount-Publix contract for $2,500. Franklin threatened .to break up the agreement at.that time -|jaJflO_lt-RKO could not get the act for $1,750, but the act pleaded ill- ness when turning down' -the date^ and RKO let It pass. When they made the agreement the four circuits; under leadership.. «f Ed Schiller of Loew's, requested ail variety act's to accept cuts of at .least '25%; :with the provision .the old salaries would be restored In September. Later it'was announced the old salaries would be returned in September 'if conditions improve by then;' but the'cuts, would cohr tlnue if conditions did npt improve. Loew's .ali$o. announced in, a press statement to the. New. York da,ily newspapers, that', lii returii tQt'ihe acts' general acceptance of- the cut, the Lioew circuit would substantially Increase its yaude playing time. Since then, instead of increasing, the.Loew time'has decreased. Acts Wouldn't' Aiiree , The cut agreement never did at- tain its original, purpose of Just re-- ducing the high and allegedly.dis- proportionate salaries of the ntlme acts. .The acts at whom the agree- ment was really aimed meirely re- fused to play at the' cut figures, de- ciding to wait until the agreement would be, called off. The smaller and moderate salaried acts, whose wages had already been reduced to rock-bottom levels,. ttgaln took the rap. In order-to" get certain acts that weren't otherwise available; the cir- cuit bookers devised a system, later generally adopted, of paying' rail- road fares or transportation- costs for the long .jump dates, whose cut salaries precluded acceptance by most acts. In many lnsta,nce& the . cut' salaries plus railrbad fares re- sulted in the circuits paying more .for acts under the-'cut' than iprevi- Rlchard Bennett ParflDionnt Nan Blackstone Billy Cai-r Aurlole Craven Sid Lang Orch .
