FLAYS MOVIE CENSORSHIP
New York State Senator Declares

CLEVELAND. Ohio. December 10
Censorship of motion pictures consti-
tutes IAN invasion of constitutional
rights and is contrary to the guar
antee of the freedom of the press and
speech James j. Walker of New
York, state senator. declared here
today in an address before the City
Club.
"A picture of current event
thrown on the screen constitutes a
visualiZed press. but it can be CEN
sored in some state" Mr.. Walker said.
THE same picture printed in news
paper cannot be censored. A mans
spoken words can be printed in d
daily newspaper or delivered in an
auditorium without censorship. The
same words perfected on a screen are
liable to censorship. Carry this thing
to its logical conclusion and it is
easily seen that our much vaunted
boast of freedom of the press and
speech will become an iridescent
dream
