New-York tribune., 1919-05-13

Rabbi Wises utter4nces about the theatre
and the stage based on the postulate,
apparently, that managers and actors have
only one aim-to corrupt the public taste.
GAS business" he says, "the business of
the theatre is the dirtieSt business in
America" By the II 900 virgins Of Cologna,
it is nothing of the kind. AS business
though our knowledge Of business may be
even less than DR.. Wise's--the business Of
the theatre is probably as clean as the
automobile business, the law, medicine, the
newspaper business, the theological profess
sion, the brokerage business, or the book
publishing business. There are a good many
poor plays produced, but not one of them
is produced because the producer tries to
bunk the public. The manager and the
producer, our guess is, do their best; when
a play is bad, their best is bad. So it is
with books. The average book, we believe,
is no better than the average play. But
even the average book and the average play
have something on the average sermon.
