he Independent Of the Trust.
David Belasco had a few things to say
last night about the absorption Of the
Shuberts by the theatrical trust. Among
other things he said:
Perhaps i am not 30 much disturbed
as ! ought to be over the union Of the
Shuberts and the theatrical trust. In the
first place my OWE plans cannot be. dis
turbed for three years at least. ] have
a contract with the Shuberts viii CHI has
three years more to run and which provides
that their houses in the principal ctties
shall be open TO my productions.
Il suspect that they viii endeavor. under
this contract, which ] shall sec 10 enforced
TO the letter. 10 compel me to play In certain
cities in trust houses; This shall a6so-
lutely refuse to do. I shall never produce
a play In a trust house and in the cities In
which ! have played Shubert houses In the
past l shall produce my plays during the
life Of the contract. As for other cities
/ shall continue 10 do what / have always
done, play in halls or barns or tents or
whatever may be necessary for me TO do.
I have done this with reasonable success
before, and ! see no reason why there should
be a failure in the future In the crop OF barns
and other public halls.
Before the expiration OF my contract
with the Shuberts l shall have perfected
arrangements by which ! shall be able 70
have my own theatres In many OF the princi-
pal cities OF the country. Il Is gratifying
TO me to be able to state that q sufficient
number OF wealthy men who have faith
in me and who believe In the highest tradi-
tons Of the stage have agreed TO provide
such money as ] may need TO build my
own theatres"
