„Future plans and a divided payment“

Editorial content. „Motion Picture Herald, on August 18th,

quoted Alexander Lichtman, sales manager of United Artists

Corporation as follows:

      ,We‘re all a bunch of suckers. We‘re entertaining the public

with motion pictures at a loss.‘

      Motion Picture Daily, on September 19th, noted the gathering

in Hollywood of all of the United Artists‘ chiefs – Schenck,

Pickford, Fairbanks, Chaplin, Zanuck and Goldwyn – for the first

board or directors‘ meeting to be held in three years, the

purposes of which, said the Daily, were twofold:

      ,To discuss future plans and a divided payment, which,

it is believed, will be a very substantial one.‘“
