It may mean, however, a combination of the Loew, Sullivan Considlne, Jones, Unnlck &-Schaefer circuits, making a string or over 1B0 popular priced vaudeville houses in tha United States. ' For soma time past Loew and 8. & C. circuits have booked the aame acts, but the present plan would call for; a central booking office In New Tork and would not only give long and ad vantageous contracts to acts, but would also result In a "round-the-world" cir cuit and the securing of much new and 'valuable talent. Mr. Loew says motion picturea are not making the in roads on eastern theatres that tney are in the west for the . reason that vaudeville and pictures are blended there in the programs. In the party with. Mr. Loew are AdolDh Zukor. president of the Famous Players Motion Picture company, and Morris Kohn, both of New x orK, ana Aaron Jones of Chicago, of the Jones, Llnnick & Schaefer houses. The mem bers of the party find much to marvel at In the west, but nothing that strikes them more forcibly than the beautiful theatres which they declare are superior to those in New Tork and way ahead of anything outside tof Gotham. j They will leave this afternoon for California and will return to the east In three Weeks., when something more definite may be expected on the pro posed combination.
