Movie Censorship Up to Council

license, while Mr.. Sanger recon-
mended that the amount be lowered
to SIS or $40 for the year. He gave
as reasons the fact that the license
fees are usually charged to defray
the expenses of police protection and
other such expenditures, while no
such protection is required here, and
that the special attractions that the
censorship would do away with have
been source of considerable rove
nue. to the managers. who need n re-
duction of operating expense to COM
pensate for the revenue lost
Suggest National Board Films
Should the plan of the committee
be approved the playhouses will be
allowed to show only films passed
upon and approved by the national
board of review, the discussion Tues
day evening having indicated that al
officials interested preferred such Il
system. 1t was reported to the coun-
ell that the managers of both picture
houses would welcome uniform
system Of censorship such as that Of
the national board.
1t is further recommended that a
member Of the council or some other
citizen of Pullman be appointed to
see that the edicts of the national
board are carried out. Occasionally
the board approves picture upon
the condition that certain scenes be
eliminated and it was charged that
film manufacturers sometimes use
the approval notice without making
the Examinations demanded. To pre-
vent any such tendency the board
issues weekly lists of the pictures ap-
proved giving also the recommended
tions of the board as to eliminations.
Under the plan suggested for this city
a local representative of the council
will secure these weekly lists and
will check up all pictures to see that
they bear the proper references.
Councilman L. G. Lawler, mayor
pro TEN, and the three other mem
bers of the council who were pres
ent, appeared to favor the establish
ment of the censorship, though def
mite action was postponed until the
petition is presented to the council,
probably at the next meeting.
