There is the tax on seating capacity, ranging frim $25 to $ 1 00. There is the new tax on admissions; there is the War Income Tax and the surtax on profits. In addition to these extraordinary burdens of taxation, every single thing needed for the motion picture entertainment has gone up in price. The ( cost of raw stock has increased, the cost of production has increased, the operating expenses have increased. Labor costs more than ever and is be coming scarcer and more expensive all the time. The management of the Galax and Strand theatres proposes to meet its obligations the govern ment cheerfully and conscientiously. The increase in the price of admis sion has been as slight as possible and was decided on after a. long hesita tion and only when it became absolutely necessary if we wanted to stay in business. BY THE MANAGEMENT - ' of the ' and ; , (. STRAND THEATRES The war has revolutionized conditions the world over. Our country must assume its share of the cost of carrying on the struggle and bringing it to a successful finish. The management of these theatres is doing its duty by the payment of increased taxes on' seats, on incomes and on profits. We' have now been compelled to make a slight advance in the ' price of admission, owing not only to extraordinary taxes, but to the in creased cbst of film and operating expenses. .
