DISTRIBUTORS ARE

Movies in Grip of Big Trusts,
Who Throttle indie
pendentS,
This is the fourth article in the series
by Carl A Randau on what goes on be-
hind the screen in the movies.
By CARL A. RANDALL

NTEW YORK, March IA
/ y The movie middlemen are
being gobbled up by the produc-
ers. Those who refuse to be
gobbled up by others have, as a
matter Of self-defense, set out to
gobble up themselves. That is to
say, they have turned to the pro-
duction Of movies and conse-
quently ceased to be strictly mid
dlemen.
There are three important phases
of the motion picture industry. The
first is production The second is
distribution. The third is exhibition.
Production is what happens out at
Hollywood. Distribution concerns it
self with the delivery Of pictures
from the time they leave the studio
10 the time they reach the movie
theater. Exhibition is what goes on
in the theater-that is, on the screen.
Distributor Is MiddIeman
The distributing Of pictures is the
function Of the middlemen. or distrib.
utors, as they are known in the pic
ture business It is the distributors
who maintain the hlm exchanges
in all the larger cities throughout the
United States.

Can a room be made less noisy
by painting the walls?

No, but according to Science Serv-
ice pointing might possibly make the
room slightly more noisy. The absorp-
ton Of sounds within a room by its
walls is partly dug to their porous
surface. So far as the painting Of
such porous surfaces makes them
impervious, it renders them highly re-
fecting to the sounds produced in the
room. This reverberation of sound
piles up the noise in the room.
