„While he struggled with the tabulation“

Editorial content. „Chaplin Delays Work

      To Figure His Income Tax

      By GEORGE SHAFFER.

      Hollywood, Cal., March 12. – Occasionally Charlie Chaplin

falls prey to a merry mood. A friend, greeting Charlie

on his recovery from his ten days‘ illness, which has threatened

to become critical, asked Charlie:

      ,What are you doing now?‘

      ,Haven‘t you heard?‘ the comedian retorted. ,I‘m just

between scandals.‘

      Charlie then announced seriously he has temporarily

called off the completion of his picture, City Lights,

while he finishes making out his income tax. Charlie said that

his cast and studio and mechanical staff could wait, but

that Uncle Sam could not, and he figured it more economical

to let the overhead roll on while he struggled with

the tabulation.“
