Special CORRESPONDENCE.

Special Correspondence,
ONDON, Feb. 3,--Sooner or later,
something certainly Is going to
- happen 10 the British stage censor
Hitherto anything like q deter
mined effort on the part Of stage FOLK
and public to get rid Of this exasperat-
lngly powerful official has failed to ma
.terialze only because the examiner OF
plays interferences have been so COM
paratively rare, but OF late Mr.. Redford
has been unusually active. All In a
month or 30 he has forbidden per-
feotly harmless Tagging" or ha2ing
scene, to be acted at Drury Lane. he has
refused to permit London theater goers
to witness u piece which Edward VII
enjoyed In Paris, and now comes the
crowning absurdity OF his action re-
gard'ng 1.-THE White Slaves OF London"
Some time ago, Arthur Shirley wrote
play With the above title which was
designed to SHOW up some OF the
worst abuses Of the sweating system"
and the dramatlst has just learned from
the lord chamberlains office that he
must not use this title. because there
are no slaves In London! And, more
over that, II his play is TO be licensed
al all, certain scenes must be removed
thercfrom on the ground that this
picce--aa II now stands-is calculated 10
make workmen dissatisfied and to ex-
cite race-hatredp This amazing pro-
nouncement has brought down a storm
OF ndicnle upon Mr.. Redfords devoted
head, Naturally Mr.. Shirley's fellow
playwrights are hot upon the censor's
trail and they have dealt him some
shrewd knocks, especially Cecil Raleigh,
author Of the Drury Lane melodramas,
who observes IN the Times that the
full absurdlty Of the present situation
will not be realized until the lord
ohamberlaln's representative prohibits
Hamlet on the ground that It IL a
conformation OF suicide and an lncite-
ment 20 dlsloyalty," The general tone
OF the London press regarding the CEN
sors latest prohibition Is, however, de-
oldedly significant "Of course there
are no slaves In London" comments q
prominent journal, ANY more than
there are asses In the lord chamber
lain'J department"
About the only excuse that can be Of
fered for the examiner Of plays is that
perhaps some OF his Judgments have to
be made In hurry. For MIR. Bedford
has little time 10 spend In pairing his
nails. London 10 perhaps the greatest
show" town IN the world, and every
piece which II II purposed 10 produce
here has TO be read by the censor This
means that BEDFORD peruses between
Ave and six hundred plays year.
sometimes a dozen In one week, and OF
course authors aren't inclined to give
him too much time over manuscripts
But play reading really Is the smaller
part OF the cens0r's duties. One thing
there Is to be said and that Is that his
unofficial title IL no misnomer. This
censor really 'ccnsors" wisely or un.
wisely Every new song sung in the
ater, even every new "gng" has TO be
submitted to him, and his decision
