European war, and slack In their
American citizenship, caused little
storm in committee. Many DemOcratid
politicians, it is said, are afraid OF this
stand by the chief executive and OPP
posed incorporation Of the plank IN
the platform. Senator William J.
Stone. chairman of the committee, was
in constant touch by long-distance
phone with the president while the
platform was being put together. Mr..
Wilson won his point.
The platform contains about 20
planks and 1900 words. 1t indorseS
Wilson's policies, praises the federal
reserve banking system, says monopoly
has been strangled. agrees that equal
suffrage is right, speaks of the income
tax, claims protection for labor. points
with pride to postal extension and
profits, lauds the Underwood tariff act
and suggests nOnpartisan tariff study.
Life Above Property Value.
1t calls for development of our sea-
shipping business, promises adequate
national preparedness, declares we
| must work for world peace, asserts
| there must be freedom of the seas,
| places the value of human life above
| property value-this last to those who
| demand we should fight as quickly for
detained American mails as for Ameri-
can lives destroyed by belligerents.
That American Plank.
Here is the Americanism plank:
The part that the United States will
play in the new day of international re-
lationships which now is upon us Will
! depend upon our preparation and our
| character. The Democratic party rec
ognizes the assertion and triumphant
| demonstration of the indivisibility and
| coherent strength of the nation,
therefore, as the supreme issue of this
day in which the whole world faces the
| crisis of manifold change. 1t summons

CRITlCIZlNG SHOWS.

The New York court Of appeals has
upheld the contention of one of the
big theatrical combinations that it
has right to exclude from its the
aters any critic whose criticism it
doesn't like. The judgment is based
on a suit brought at the instance of
New York newspaper, whose critic
was debarred from the cOmpany's
houses because of severe review
he had written Of certain dramatic
production.
The truth or falsity of the criti,
cism was not considered by the court.
The only point at issue, the court
ruled, was the right of theater-Or
of an amusement syndicate control
ing a theater-to decide for itself
who shall be permitted to buy tickets
and witness its productions.
There are statutes forbidding such
places OF amusement to refuse admit
lance to any person on the ground
OF color or creed, but it appears that
any person of any race or religion
may be barred from any theater il
the management happens to dislike
or suspect the would-be patron. 1t
isn't a question of refusing press
tickets to newspaper critics; it's a
question of refusing to let them enter
a theater on the same basis as other
guests. And, apparently. the same
right to censor the personnel of an
audience applies to everybody. If the
theater can bar the professional crit.
ic just because it doesn't like him,
it can bar any man or woman for
the same reason.
The public, however, can probably
stand it better than the theaters
can. The show business hasn't been
very good in recent years If there
is any way by which the theater can
regain its old prestige and earn its
former profits, it consists in needing
honest criticism instead of trying tC
stifle it.
