      Charlie Chaplin‘s propaganda-farce „The Great Dictator“

is showing at advanced prices with varying success.

Its real test at the wickets will come when it is generally

released at regular admission prices, within the

price reach of the masses that always have claimed Chaplin

as among their top favorites.

„On the full engagement a fine profit“

      Capitol (4,520; 28-55-85-$1.10) – Son of Monte Carlo (UA)

opens here today (Wed.) after seven weeks of The Dictator

(UA), final stanza being $32,000. This was a rather sharp drop

from the sixth lap‘s $47,000, though okay. On the full

engagement a fine profit for both UA and Metro.“
