DRAMATIC NEWS AND COMMENT

Variety is responsible for the state
ment that any type of "Hebrew act 3
which caricatures the Hebrew is the
object of vigorous protest by many
vaudeville patrons, and in recognition
of the objection the Orpheum circuit
has been subjected to an order prohib
iting the engagement Of any act of
this nature. Accordingly, 1t is expect
ed that but few Hebrew turns will be
seen west this season.
No one will deny the right of each
component element of our hybrid ma.
tionality to claim and uphold a certain
racial and civic dignity and to compel
its recognition. But there is such a
thing as stage license, which is inter
preted in its broadcst sense in vaude-
vile. One Of the' chief elements of
amusement is eNaggeration, and the
caricature is the result of this tendency
TO distort or ridIculously embellish ma
ture for amusement purposes only. and
the average tbeatergoer is broad mind
ed enough 10 take this type of enter
tainment at its face value without try
ing 10 find under its humor a personal
insult because IL puts on the mimetic
grill his race or nationality.
Why, above all others, should the
Hebrew caricature be abolished Nine
times out of ten il is more faithfully
depicted than others, because nine times
out of ten the principal ingredient of
the caricature Will be found 20 be gen.
uinc Hebrew. Obviously, the Hebrew
has an advantage over all others in car.
featuring himself. The caricature act
is strong factor in vaudeville But If
the caricaturc Of one nationality is ia
booed why not abolish all
Suppose the English, the German. the
French. the Italian. or even the typical
Yankee himself, should exercise his
right Of protest because of the obiec
tionablc features OF his caTicaturc as
presented in vaudeville; suppose writcrs
OF classical music should protest against
the use OF ragtime on the round tina;
the latter detracted from the dignity
Of the art; suppose the ascetic protest
ed against the wearing OF tights. open
faced bodices and N-baeked gowns; sup.
pose society should arise in indignation
because Of the manner in which il l.
