Continuoui Showi Today Sensational Change At Medford's Finest Children 10c Anytime TO THE CITIZENS OF MEDFORD AND SOUTHERN OREGON: Wi feel that the drastic change In admission prices announced today calls for an explanation. We have made It our pollvy never to publicly criticize our competitor, and unbuslness-llke methods employed by them during the past few months have been overlooked. However. In this instance we feel Justified in making this statement so as to acquaint the people of the community with certain fact. Apparently no longer able to meet fair competition In a fair manner. Vox West Coast Theatres have devised a plan that appears to be a deliberate attempt to monopollne the entire film market in towns In which they have independent competition, thereby forcing the closing of these Independent theatre. They have done this even tho It seems their present policy and Investment cannot accommodate and exhibit all of these pictures, yet It deprives other theatres of the opportunity to exhibit these pictures and continue operation. We believe suoh acta to be grossly unfair and not in accordance with ethics of American business and it warrants, we feel, the whole-hearted condemnation of very citizen. The closing of the Independent theatre would leave a monopoly for Fox Wert Coast, a condition that Medford knows from experience la not satisfactory. Fortunately, however, the Holly has at it disposal enough films to continue operation for some time and is not one of the unfortunate theatres forced to close by this proceed u re of PVx West Coast; but our plans have been somewhat upset by this sudden move on their part in which they seem to seek to close our theatre rather than to continue to face competition. We are, therefore, taking this method to meet the competition presented by these unfair tactics and solicit the support of this community to help us continue to operate our theatre. We feel that you would not like to see Med ford's finest theatre forced to close its doors because of such unjust actions. Wt assure you that the type and quality of entertainment at our theatre will not decline with the price of admission and that for the price of admission, you will not be able to equal our programs anywhere. We do this to solicit your support until such time as government Investigations and legal actions now In progress have been completed, which will, we feel certain, stop Fox Wert Coast from proceeding further under this policy. If you believe that business In Medford should be conducted on a fair competitive basis, you will condemn the policy of the Fox thfstre and give your entire support to the Holly and other Independent theatres in Medford.
