Objects to Standing

One. he said. standing room"'
Il was not the first time the mat
ePr had been called to our atten-
ton. The privilege Of selling stand
ag room in Washington theaters-
Q privilege that is denied the ex-
hibitors in most of the larger cities
Of the country-is being very great
ly abused.
Next TO reeling off films at ex-
press train speed so as TO set the
program over and the crowd out
quickly. the business Of packing
people into the theaters in Wash
ington is one OF the worst features
OF the city's photoplay business.
And at this time Of the year the
crowding is not only dangerous but
very uncomfortable.
Washington is one Of the few
cities Of any size in the country
that permits the sale OF standing
room in its theaters. Elsewhere
rigid regulations are enforced that
prohibit admission to the theater
Of anyone without ticket entit-
ling him to a seat. This regula-
ton is so strictly enforced in some
cities that seats must be purchased
for even small children Frequent
inspections without warning and re-
pested prosecutions have taught the
theater managers that II Is not pos
sible 70 evade the regulation, no
matter how crooked the political
rings might be that control the city
governments. There have been too
many disasters in theaters and
schools TO permit even the most
hardened of municipal missovern-
ors thinking of allowing such ordi-
nances to be overlooked.
In Washington. however, there Is
no regulation of this sort, In spite
Of the other rigid rules that pre-
vail and the result is that there are
numbers of managers who sell
standing room long after the seats
and vacant spaces behind the seats
are crammed with hunlanity as full
as they will hold. There is ono of
