OF MOVIE
THEATERS ON

WASHINGTON.-"A complaint re
ceived from an independent motion
picture theatre owner in my home
town of Butte, Montana, charging tha
the great producer-exhibitor monop
oily is using unfair coercive means
to destroy his business, is typical Of
charges made by many other theatre
operators throughout the country,
declared Sen. James E. Murray OF
Montana, in announcing that the sen
ate committee on small business, of
which he is chairman, is launching
an investigation of this apparently
widespread problem.
The senator said he has instructed
Dewey Anderson, executive secretary
of the committee, to make thorough
survey of all complaints, to conduct
the necessary staff studies of the
problems involved, and report his find
ings to the committee for action. If
found necessary, the committee will
conduct open hearings of this vital
issue.
Independent film theatre owners,
those who are not affiliated with any
of the major motion picture producing
companies, have represented to the
committee that they are being sub
jected to relentless squeeze, forcing
them to close their theatres, or else
suffer absorption by the major produc-
ing companies and the large theatre
chains.
The vital Importance of motion pic
lures as a medium for the commune
cation of thoughts and ideas gives the
public real stake in them," Senator
Murray observed. ANY practices
which result in restraint of trade, or
prevent the exhibition of films in any
area of the country would infringe on |

ecure preferential treatment over
mall theatre owners. According to in
dependent exhibitors, these combina-
ions and favors have made 1t increas-
ngly difficult for them to survive.
The figures of the Hays organiza-
ion itself show that during the past
ecade the relative importance of
mall Independent theatres has de-
lined sharply. Between 1888 and
941, the total number of motion pic
ion theatres in this country increased
rom 13.416 to 16,951. Independent
leatres, which were 6S per cent Of
ne total number in 1888, dropped to 1
per cent in 1871. During the same ,
eriod the number of theatres belong
