ARRAN'TS have been issued by Chief Magistrate McAdoo W for the arrest of the theatre managers responsible for ‘red-light’ plays which have affronted and disgusted theatre-goers in this vity. * Whe Evening World was the first newspaper to make direet and urgent demand upon the authorities to sweep these filthy exhibits from the stage. Chief Magistrate McAdoo himself went to see one of them, “The Tare.” Hear what he says about it: | I believe the play (“The Lure”) to be indecent and f covered by Section 1140 of the PenalLaw. * ° ° We do not need to uncover the sewer te convince people as to ite fihinens, mor to warm there of ordinarily cleanly habite against getting into ft. * ° © | THE MOTIVE OF THE PLAY 18 TO MAKE MONEY. i When they see box-office receipts slipping from their grasp these | managers drop the moral uplift pose. } Last Saturday Lee Shubert, manager of “The Lure,” aaid to Magistrate McAdoo: “If after seeing the play yourself you condemn it, Twill withdraw it. The Magistrate saw the piece. He condemned it as strongly ae he-knew how. Why, then, has not Mr. Shubert withdrawn it, as he promised? Why is he hiring lawyers in an endeavor to prolong its run? Last Saturday Bayard Veiller, author of “The Fight,” declared: “I am ready to leave the fate of the piece to Mr. McAdoo. If he decides that the play should be closed we will withdraw it.” Mr. McAdoo’s representative, Commissioner Newburger, with a stenographer, eaw “The Fight,” noted ite “red-light” act, its obscene and profane passages of dialogue. In issuing the warrant for the arrest of the Harris managers of “The Fight,” Magistrate McAdoo pronounced Commissioner Newburger’s evidence and the stenogra- pher’s notes “‘euffictent.” Why, then, have not Mr. Veiller and his managers with- drawn “The Fight”? Why have they, too, engaged lawyers? Let’s have no more humbug. The “red-light” drama is written | to exploit flashy pictures of vice and harlotry. Managers have put it on the stage for the money there is in it. Each manager proclaims the other’s play a “public nuisance” and his own “a moral lesson.” Clean-minded playgoers are impatient to be rid of the whole loath- some business, not the least sickening element in which has been the tawdry parade of fake morality—morality measured in the box- moral, and in part gross and revolting, and that it is ontire! | ooo DON’T EXCITE THEM. ITH Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst impending—like what the weather sharps call “a cyclonic disturbance moving west-; ward”—the Antis, or, as they like to be termed, the Na-| tional Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage, are shaking a stern finger of warning at the euffragists and reminding them that already ‘on two occasions “the canse” has disclosed “symptoms of rowdyism” by Rissing the nemo of the President of the United States. The first time was at a public meeting in Washington in 1910 when women hissed the name of President Taft because he did not | indorse woman suffrage. Again, a few daye ago, at a convention at Spring Lake, discussion of a pomible champion of “the cause” called ‘forth cheere for Ool. Roosevelt and hisses for President Wilson. “When suffragists refuse to respect the high office of President of the United States,” declare the Antis, “when they hiss its occu- ipant’s name, whon they ehow contempt for the very Government of the ‘eountry, it is time to ask whether they have not gope beyond the bounds of all reason. They are beginning to substitute rowdyism for reason and are making violence a vice.” ‘We fear, alack and alas, that even our own suffragists are now ‘and again no better than they ought to be, but while the Pankhurst aura is hanging about it makes us nervous to see the Antis pitching into them and stirring them up. Hissing the President is pretty low- down business, but it isn’t quite so bad as banging him over the head with umbrellas and rolling him on the grass, which is what the Pank- huret pupils are taught to do to their Prime Minister. Until our dangerous guest has got her visit over with and gone home we beg everybody hereabouts to sit tight, breathe through the nose and let the suffragists alone. Watch them, pray for then— but don’t bullyrag them. Letters From the People | | | | Such Is Life!
