WISE FOR WHIPPING POST
TO BAR INDECENT WRITER'S.

NEW YORK, April 24.-Admit-
ting he would approve the whipping
post for writers of improper books
and plays, Rabbi Stephen S. Wise
maintained his stand against cen
sorship yesterday before the Free
Synagogue Congregation in Carne-
gle Hall.
1.-THE easiest and cheapest way
out OF an obligation Is to ask the
state to act for u.s." he said. Cen
Sorship is one Of the stupid strate-
gems Of democracy. 1t will not
protect your children from the inn
moral and indecent. That can be
done only by teaching them to love
only what is good"
DIR. Wise cited the much criticized
God of Vengeance" as typical of
what the censors would first attack
He declared that, although he had
gone to see the play filled with
prejudice against the author, he
was forced to admit it was one of
the most moral plays of the season.

SLEEK RUSSIAN FLEEcES
JEWELLERS IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, July 5. - Five
Maiden lane jewelers., noted for
their keenness in sizing up humans,
have been fleeced out of 100000
in gems in the last few weeks by
plausible stranger from Russia,
1t was disclosed today.
Mirebeau G. Towns, one of the
five, who admitted a costly failure
in Judgment, said the man had
come to him as salesman, with
apparently unassailable references,
and, beginning in a small way to
take out gems to sell on com
mission, had built up good credit.
Meantime, he was building UP
credit at the other firms in the
same way, pawning some Of the
jewels in order to pay the owners
of others for gems he represented
as having been sold.
When he had pyramided his credit
to 100000 he dropped out of sight.
and the jewelers. and the police
are still looking for him. The
richest single gem stolen was a
five and half carat emerald, be-
longing to Towns which was
valued at $4,000.
