PLAYGOERS' JURY T0BE GIVEN TRIAL Prosecutor to Act on Plan, Brady Withdraws “Goed Bad Woman.” Iy the Associated Press. NEW YORK, February 20.—In view of widespread criticism of a dozen Broadway sex plays, besides “A Good Bad Woman,” which Willlam A. Brady will voluntarily withdraw after to- morrow’s performance, District At- torney Banton has come out in favor of censorship by a jury of playgoers. “I want to get away from political censorship and think that the most effective curb on plays will come from within,” Mr. Banton said today. I have in mind selecting a panel of 300 representative citizens who are also playgoers. From this list the com- missioner of police could select 12 to act upon complaints; I think the recommendation of such a jury would be followed; if not we could then prosecute.” Mr. Banton added that he would also favor applying th& jury system to complaints against objectionable 01 Discussing his agreement to ontinue “A Good Bad Woman,” Mr. v said today he was “mentally sfied, but financially disgruntled.” Gives Back $26,000. “There is a load off my soul,” he asserted. “But I never feel comfort- able about giving $26,000 back.” The $26,000 was refunded to patrons who had bought tickets for next week. Speculators sold tickets for last night's performance for $20. “I told Mr. Banton that I could delay proceedings against me while the play was making big money,” Mr. Brady added, “and that in the end I could probably escape with a nominal fine; but he appealed to me to help him clean up the stage and I volun- tarily agreed to withdraw the play.” Mr. Brady's press department as- scrted that the motive of the producer in presenting “A Good Bad Woman™ Lad been to shock the public into reformation.” $25 000,000 IS NETTED BY CASUAL CONVERSATION Confidence Expressed in Southern by Fairfax Harrison Led Group to Invest.

IBANEZ CAMPAIGN HELD BENEFICIAL TO ALFONSO Rivera Says Attacks Have Made Spanish King Most Popular Figure in Nation. Ry the Associated Press. ROME, February 20.—The campaisn Vicente Blasco Ibanez against King Alfonso of Spain, instead of serving the purpose the author in- tended, has resulted in making the King the most popular Spanish figure, Gen.
