stitution, the British censor. We are
helpless. 1t is just the same as when
moro than twenty years ago J wrote
Mrs. warren's Profession"
There I tried TO put an end to the sys-
tenn of organized vice. What was the re-
suit? i was informed by the critics. Just
as in the case of Brieux. that 1t was

no traces of art. The censor banned II;

Eighteen months ago a sudden panic

Parliament passed to end the white
slave traffic" Had my play been per-
formed freely, / guarantee that 1t would
not have taken twenty years to educate
the people and also that they would have
been educated along logical lines. I
tried then to point out what Brieux has
done in Damaged Goods" namely. that
evils OF this kind must be fought with
the most efficient weapons at our dis
pcsal.
I showed that organized vice was not
run by idiots, but by highly educated and
attractive individuals. who necessitate
the employment of all our resources to
defeat them Similarly. Brieux shows
the only possible method Of fighting the
dissemination of this horrible disease.
But the prospect is not good. According
to the ruthless ideas of our stiff- backed
English conventionalism, this is the one
subject which must not be talked Of
One cannot characterize this opposition.
It is a kind OF tribal influence, handed
down for generations. Just the same thing
that one can tell the people-that every
one would be more husky II they went

Prudery of EnGlishmen.
1t is all due to kind of unnatural prud-
cry with which the Englishmen are OBJ
sessed. Perhaps in thirty generations Of
time they will outgrow 1t, but / am not
optimistic. Nevertheless. do feel strong
ly on the subject of this play. 1t is a
magnificent work of art. 1t does an enor-
nous public service. but owing to the
idiosyncrasies of this censor institution,
coupled with British stupidity and pref
udice, it is not allowed to be performed
publicly.
Incidentally. the eowardice displayed by
some of the British newspapers was sim
ply loathsome. Some of them actually re-
turned tickets to the private performance,
afraid even to review it.
