Sound — Approximately 3,700 out of a total of 4,500 theaters are wired for showing sound films. Further sales of up-to-date sound equipment for cinemas in France have become very difficult. Of 3,700 wired houses now in France, competent representatives in the trade estimate that no more than 2,000 are really equipped with anything like good apparatus. Many of the other 1,700 cinemas are open only one or two days a week and their revenue is probably too limited to permit them to buy and install up-to-date sound equipment. The 800 cinemas which are not equipped for sound are located in very small villages and are for the most part opened only one day a week. Their revenues are too small to permit the purchase of 35 mm sound equipments. It is possible that later these cinemas may be able to purchase discarded equipments from the more prosperous cinemas, but it is more probable that they will ultimately install 16 mm sound projection machines which are now being offered for sale in France. In addition, there are approximately 1,000 more localities in France, where there are no cinemas, which may oflFer a market particularly for 16 mm apparatus.
