CLOSE TO AVOID TAX

I NTERN ATION AL NEWS SERVICE) LONDON, March. English cinema exhibitors are threatening to close down' in the summer unless the existing high entertainment tax imposed by the British government is abolished. "Each day brings the film industry nearer to ruin," declared Mr. A. E. Newbould, M. P.. the chief spokesman of the English film industry, at a mass meeting of exhibitors held in London. The meeting, called to denounce the continuation of the tax, which at present lalses a doHar seat to a dollar and a half, passed a unanimous resolution stating that ruin faced the industry if the impost was not abolished. One proposal to be submitted to the government as a result of the meeting is that the tax should be removed during the summer months, failing which it is euggest ed that the theaters close down altogether, thus throwing thousands of people out of employment.
