MOVIE TRUST
IS UNDER FIRE
SsIfhnational Combine Is Charged
In Action BY Federal Trade
Commission
BY NORRIS QUINN.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23-Amerl-
can movie fans spent $i,000,03O for
theater tickets every day last year.
Two thirds of that amount found
its way into the pockets of giant
motion picture trust, say charges
filed by the Federal Trade Commits
sion.
The commission says ! has un-
carthed an international plot to con-
troll the production, distribution and
exhibition of motion picture films.
1t names the Famous Players
LaSky Corporation as ringlcader OF
the alleged combine and involves IL
other companies. All have been
given 80 days to answer the charges.
They are expected to deny them
completely
Details of Charges.
The commission says the alleged
combine already has been so success
full that its perpetrators have:
SIGNED iron-clad con racts with
the most popular screen stars to act
exclusively in their pictures.
ACQUIRED a controlling interest
in the most important American
film distributing agency and stifled
compel ton on the part of the other
agencies.
BOUGHT 400 big movie theaters
outright and forced hundreds of 9TH
err theaters throughout the country
to show their films exclusively.
OPENED branches and affiliated
IN
European country and in India.
Until 1916 the motion picture IN
duStry was in the hands of three dit
tcrent classes of operatives-pro-
duccrs, distributors and exhibitors.
In 1916 Adolph Zukor and Jesse j.
Lasky set out to get control of all
three branches, the Federal Trade
commission charges.
The three most important film pro
ducers then were Bosworth, Inc, the
Jesse L. Lasky Feature and Play
TO-. and the Famous Players Film
Go. Zukor was president of the last,
Lasky and Zukor bought out Bos-
worth and thus merged all three
companies, giving them absolute con-
1foI Of the producing branch, the
commission says.
The next step was getting control
OF the distributing end
The Paramount Players Corpora
~ was the most important distrib-
Eurr Paramount refused to sell
OUT to the Zukor-L asky organization.
Then, the commission says. Zullor
Incorporated the Aircraft Pictures
corporation as a distributing agency
ana started to compete with Para
mount The result: Paramount sold
OUT to Zukor and his organization
found itself in control of the dis
tIbuting branch.
Inc final step was to acquire con-
srol Of the exhibiting branch, the
'leaters. This, the commission
Gnarges, was accomplished by buying
interests in chains of theaters and
'9ieatening theaters in the larger
S.Aes with competition if they re
used to yield to the trusts demands.
At the same time. the commission
s"afges, Zukor and Lasky secretaly
operated the Reelart Pictures Cor
giofatllon, which controlled its own
oSInbuting and exhibiting agencies
ana purported to be competing
