RODOLPH VALENTINO You Have Se¢tn Him As & Hero See Him As & Villain in “The Wondexful Chance” BOOK CENSORSHIP BEATEN IN COURT Magistrate Finds Volumes Under Fire Are Not Violation of Penal Code —Librarian Dismissed Also, New York, Sept. 13,—In a 'declsion handed down by Magistrate George W. Simpson in the Municipal Term Court yesterday the charge made by John 8. Sumner, secretary of the New York Boclety for the Suppres- sion of Vice, against Thomas Beltzer that three books the defendant pub- lished were in violation of Section 1,141 of the Penal Law was dismissed and Mr, Seltzer was discharged, Mag- istrate Simpson also exonerated Mary H. Marks, a circulation library em- ploye, charged by Mr. Bumner with loaning, for consideration, one of the books. The books complained of were “A Young Woman's Diary,” attributed to a Viennese girl between the ages of 11 and 16; “Women in Love,” written by D. H. Lawrence and described by} the Magistrate in his decision as a book in which *the author attempts to discover the motivating power ot life,” and ‘“Casanova’s Home-com- ing,” which was written by Dr. Ar- thur S8chnitzler. Referring to Dr. Schnitzler as ‘“a leading mgn of let- ters,” Magistrate Simpson sald the book was “the story of the last love affair in his declining years of one Casanova, famous for his memoirs.” Following the rendering of the de- cision, Jonah J. Goldstein of 365 Broadway, counsel for the defend- ants, announced that ‘a sult would goon be instituted against Mr. Sum- ner and his society for losses sus- tained by Mr. Seltzer since litigation commenced about slx weeks ago.| While the amount of damage sought has not yet been determined, the publisher himself declared that $25,- 000 would not be too much to de- mand.
