IN MEMORIAM On this, the anniversary of the appalling disaster that befell the Knickerbocker Theater, 1 wish to pay tribute of sorrowful and ten- der memory to those who lost their lives and to join my prayer with those of other citizens of Washington for the rapid recovery of those who at that time suffered physical injury. I wish also to ex- press heart-felt sympathy for those whose loved ones were taken from them, numbered among whom.were nine of our own organi- zation. Our hearts today bleed with the same uncontrollable grief so many feel. HARRY M. CRANDALL. A STATEMENT As a result of such a disaster as that which orcurred at the Knickerbocker Theater ox January 28th, 1922, it is but natural that within the statutory period the personal rep:c!e:!: atives of those who died and many who suffered injuries would feel it their duty to institute legal proceedings for damages in the event that the law should find it appropriate to fix responsibility upon any person or corporation connected with the enterprise so unfortunately stricken. These contests will, of course, be determined in court in accordance with the law of the land and while I, personally, feel not in the slightest degree responsible for the terri- ble catastrophe, I unhesitatingly declare that it the sacrifice of anything I now possess or may ever hope to acquire, would avail to restore those who have been taken away, my sincerest wish would havé been accomplished. I can not, however, pass unnoticed the fact that in the complaints which have been filled in court ani published, many unfair and untrue statements have been made and misrepresentations indulg d in; so, I believe it 8 my duty to myself and to the public to set right the facts by this statement. 1. It has been alleged that the Knickerbocker Company has endeavored to evade financial lability by the sale of its property to me for th* sum of $10. This is not true. The sale of the property was made at public auction after much newspaper and verbal advertisement. The bidding at the sale was spirited and I purchas>d the property, after full opportunity for all bidders to be recognized, for the sum of $177,500, and paid in full therefor. Revenue stamps commensurate with this amount of purchase were appended to the deed, which was recorded. This amount was much more than I expected it to cost, especially since the property had orig- inally been purchased hardly six years prior thereto for the sum of $59,000. The auction sale was not held until three months after the disaster had occurred and the dissolution of the Knickerbocker Company did not become effective, after adequate advertising, until Novem- ber 12, 1922, nearly ten months subsequent to the accident. At the time of the dissolution not a single suit for damages had been filed in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia and before the dissolution both the Coroner’'s Jury and the Grand Jury of the District of Columbia had held exhaustive hearings and made their findings in which neither of said trib- unals in any way held me or any one connected with the Knickerbocker Company responsible. Surely these facts refute, and should clear the public mind of, the reckless charge of fraud- ulent intent in the transfer of the property. % 2. Further, I understand it is charged that I operated this theater with the knowledge of its weakness, This is far from the truth. I had in my charge an investment of $250,000. T never refused to expend any money that tended to add to its stability. My family and that of each of the executives of the company, together with myself and each of the executives were constant attendants at the theater. So far were we from cven suspecting the slightest weakness in the structure that many thousands of dollars were spent to promote the conveni- ence of the public in the installation of marble stairways and other improvements but a few months before the collapse. All of the executives of the company took pride in the fact that ;nllch of the money spent in the theater was turned back to add convenience and comfort for ts patrons. 8. I have also heard it asserted that I was president and general manager of the Knicker- bocker Theater when it was formed. This is also a serious error, as I was not presfent of the company, nor did I finance it or have any money invested in it in its inception. The company was financed by local interests and I was retained as general manager solely because I hap- pened to be conversant with the practical knowledge of the motion picture business. I know, however, that every effort was made to secure the best talent and results in the awarding of the contracts for the construction of the house. The contract itself was awarded to Mr. Frank L. Wagner, who happened to be the highest, and mot the lowest, bidder; and it was awarded to him because of his reputation as a capable and practical builder, irrespective of the question of cost. The theater itselt had actually been in operation about three months be- fore circumstances so shaped themselves that I was called upon to reorganize the company and purchase it from the financiers who had originally launched it. 4. It has also been stated that I superintended the construction. This assertion is with- out foundation. I have not now and never had any knowledge which would equip me for this line of work and I did not undertake either to superintendend or comstruct the building. 5. Report has come to me that some without knowledge of the facts assume the filing of suits has aroused my bitter resentment. I take this opportunity of assuring those who have such ideas that I feel not the slightest malice toward anyone concerned in any suit. The only emotion that the catastrophe has inspired in me is one of unconquerable grief that such a fate should have befallen friends and patrons of the house which bore, even in part, my nante. 8. T trust the public will be mindful of the fact that I have been a life-long resident of Washington; that I have developed a chain of theaters by my life work that has made my name more or less a household word; that I realize fully my responsibility in connection there- with to the Washington public; that it has always been my purpose so to conduct my business as to discharge to the highest degree the obligation which I have keenly felt I owed the people of Washington who have so loyally rallied to my support both before, during and subse- quent to the Knickerbocker tragedy. They may be assured that from that purpose and re- sponsibility I will never swerve. HARRY M. CRANDALL. SPIRIN SAY “BAYER” when you buy. Insist!
