The
Theatre
Situation
T!i.
recent
cut
in
prices
at
the
Capitol
Theatre
illustrates
the
policy
of
the
great
theatre
trust,
operating
under
the
name
of
the
Famous
Players
Corporation.
They
control
some
one
hundred
and
fifty
theatres
and
the
small
man
is
rapidly
being
w-im-j'i
out
of
the
theatre
business.
