1T is not unlikely that the dramatic
season of 1923 will mark the decline
and fall of the theatric trust" says HI
larry Bell in the New York Press. Mr..
Bell gives three reasons for the passing
of the trust The first is that those
outside of the trust have opened the
season with quality and quantity supe-
rior to the trust; the second, that the
trust has rejected the native author
and leanedson the broken reed of Euro
pean novelties; and the third, that
members of the trust are making more
money outside than inside the trust.
