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.
