State Boards New Rules Indi-
cate the Extent to Which
the Officials Will Act

Stringent rules ito keep motion
pictures attuned to public opinion"
have been laid down by the State
Board of Motion Picture Censors in
the new book of rules and regulations
just issued from the offices of the
board. All the experience of the last
year or so in controlling pictures and
the observation and thought of the
censors seems to have been concen-
trated in the new code. 1t is far
more comprehensive than the original
rules and the statements made as TO
policy are very plainly worded. The
board consists of J. L. Breitinger,
Ellis Paxson Oberholtzer and Mrs. e.
c. Niver.
The first rule states that the board
will "aim to eliminate everything
which shall tend to debase morals or
inflame the mind to improper ad-
ventures or to establish false stand
ards of conduct. sacrilege, death
and depressing scenes "unduly en-
phasized" and grewsome subjects are
put under objection and barroom and
passionate love" scenes must be
used with discretion and not so as to
lose significance.
Frank exposure of the person may
be less Objectionable than partial ex-
posure," is one of the hints and dis
robing and intimate home scenes are
to be avoided as much as possible.
The board gives notice that it will
lean to the conservative side in deal
ing with comedy costuming. Plays
showing infidelity are not considered a
legitimate subject and the board says
1t will Insist that problems of sex
shall be treated with seriousness and
reserve"
Slap stick stunts must be whole
some, no plays holding up to ridicule
any sect or which tend to show loose
morals are to be attempted. Pictures
showing women drinking and smoking
will be carefully judged. In regard to
underworld, opium den and similar
scenes are to be truthful when they
have to be used, but are to be en-
ployed with restraint and will be sub
ject to rigid consideration. 1t is
frankly stated that they may be con-
demned, while pictures showing habit
forming from use of drugs are not
considered in the movie field at
all.

When women of secretly question

tC0pyright, 1919, star company
When women of secretly question.
spect. meet in friendly converse they
are exceedingly careful to steer away
from any discussion of vice. They
prefer to talk of the new minister,
and their private charities. and the
opera, and the latest fashion.
Herein they are more wise than
their moral and pure-hearted sisters
sometimes are.
To the really innocent possessed of
any temperament or imagination there
is certain fascination in learning a
little aout the doings Of vice. 1t is
the same sort of quality of mind which
makes the timid child want to hear
about Jack the Giant Killer, Little
Red Riding Hood and Bluebeard
The child is all affection and tender
ness. yet he is stirred with a creepy
sensation of delight and, horror inter
mingled when he hears these tales of
slaughter (stories, by the way, which
no child should ever be permitted to
hear during his nursery days).
1t is quite in the same way that
good girls and pure-hearted women
are led through their curiosity to listen
to stories of human depravity and
vice. and to repeat to one another the
tales of wickedness which they have
read or heard.
Had they taken part in any of these
phases of life they would not want TO
talk about them unless they had be-
come utterly depraved and Indifferent
to public opinion; yet even with the
excuse of the curiosity which often
accompanies virtue and ineXperience,
it is a step in the wrong direction
when a good woman with noble and
worthy aims allows herself to talk
about unwholesome subjects.
1t is impossible for a woman of in
telligence to live in the world a score
of years and not know that vice and
depravity exist. 1t is necessary that
she should know 1t If she intends to
be a factor for good, and not a mere
