petition TO Chancellor Won Bethmann- Hou-

not be forfeited through the acquisition
of citizenship in a foreign state. but only
suspended. 50 lar as the state in question
IS concerned.
II is also proposed that German citizen

JBy cable - The Tribune. !


London, Nov. 1S.--The report Of the
joint committee on censorship drawn
up by Sir Herbert s-m-c. resembles
the papers on eccIes'ssti,rl discipline
written by Sir Lewis Diodin. one Of the
most versatile lawyers oi the kingdom.
II is compromise grab-bag, from
which every interested section obtains
a prize package. The Lord Chamber
lain and the examiner OF plays secure
the retention uf the existing censorship,
with an invitation 20 make il more rig
orous against indecent drama. The
managers have security in producing
licensed plays and authors of risky
works can produce them without
license and be sued by the director Of
public prosecutions.
When the report obtains the sanction
of law everything will go on as before.
except when George Bernard Shaw or
Granville Barker sends out something
startling as a flyer. and therf il will be
known. after promiscuous self-adver-
tisement, whether freedom has degen-
Grated into license and decency into pru-
dery. Theatres and music halls are re-
duced 10 the same level and censorship
is left optional IL Is a fantastic exam
pie Of the English passion for compro-
mise. Playwrights who do not want Mr..
Redford's liceDse before production can
have three censors after production.
Lena Ashwel has won another acting
success at the Globe Theatre in Douglas

which she receives strong support from
