<wT WISH," aaid Cfcai
' ham, who arrived this wrrk by
the M.urrt.ni., "we could po
back to the old Ameriean plan of c!"?
ir.c down liurinjf the hot Bpell. For
?Ming, a close srason sends the
public back to the theater with a
hralthy, hcarty hunger, ar.d we are all
the bettir."
Dilling-h.m's Immedi.te V-uslr.e.. han
is to lir.k up .n asaociBtion with J. A.
V. Malone and at once complete con
. tracts for "Ton* of Money"?which he
deel.res h* would have taken
tttle alone?and for Galsworthy's "Loy
nlties." His three outstnndinr. suc
699991 last year were "The
1 eaded Boy," "Bulldep Drummond" .nd
"A Bill of Divoreement." He profe?ses
the fre.t.st aatiafaetion at the growth
of ur.deratandinjf between Kngland and
the I'mtrd States, which he beheva. ||
!ari,'el>* due to the thenter.
If there Is any aoreness the other
side over the export of Enjjlish plays
across the Atlantic, it m*y be as?u
ag-ed by the conslder.tion thnt taV
'a good dca! of reeiproeity in the busi
jness. Some two months ago, at the
IhelfH of the sprir.a; se.son here, of
thirty-six playi running at the Lon?
don theaters, no lesa than a dor
clear third?were either f.f Ameriean
orifin or framed around ar. Ameriean
jstar.
That, howev.r, waa at Ih* reight of
'the .eason. To-day almost every Lon
' don manr.n?r would re-eeho (
Dillingham's wish for a return to the
o'd plan of c'.osin*; down durinp the
hot spell. Be'orc the war that was the
pr.etiee here, m the case, at 1*??* ?
con'ider.h'e number of the theaters,
and in this way hardthip, to the man
aj-ements. ar.yway, was aomewhat

no inire.srd th.t it i* quite impo.

:.,s.nK he.viiy. Most of the theaters'
now plan to itay open rijfht throujh
the aummcr. The mnn.gera are in a
very difficu'.t poaition. They must
keep their theaters open. and they can
not afford to keep running- a play that
