Publishers Say
Crime Comics
Are for Adults

NEW YORK. - Controversy be-
tween the'Detroit Police department,
which recently banned crime"
comic books. five of which have
since been banned by the Indianap-
oils police, and the publishers of
these books RACES with undiminished
fury. Both sides are standing firm
in their convictions.
Interviewed individually, these
comic book publishers, without ex-
ception, claimed that their particu-
lar books were less Objectionable
than others banned. None denied
that there are comic books that are
'obscene," 'inflammatory," ''vul-
gar" ''inartistic" or all four.
Several, basing their self-defense
on freedom of the press. declared
that because their books dealt with
''true" crimes they are harmless,
that they are written for adults and
that the publisher is not responsible
for the welfare of children who hap.
pen to read his books.
Crime comic books, publishers
said, have been brought out in quan-
tity only in the last two years SIM
ply to satisfy the appetites of ex-
GIs. 1--WE do it by formula, not
malice" one said bluntly. "A cop,
killer, a gun and a girl"
Cause of Investigation
Prosecutor James N. McNally of
Detroit, interviewed by telephone,
said that his comic book investiga-
ton began when the police were
seeking to stop the sale of toy
gun used in fake hold-ups. 1--WE
found" he said, that the manu-
facturer advertised in comic books.
We began looking into $50 of these
books and ended up banning the SO
our censor bureau found most OBJ
iectionable. The two distributing
companies handling them willingly
agreed that these books would no
longer be sold. We therefore plan
no criminal action against the pub
| lishers.'
The day after McNally's action,
Mayor AL Feeney of indianapolis
banned of 260 books his special
investigator had rounded up. He
received the promise of cooperation
from local distributors.
One Asks for Hearing
$50 far" Mr.. McNally said, "only
one publisher has asked for hear
ing. That is the National Comics
group, publishers of Gangbuster
Comics, which is temporarily re-
moved from the banned list pending
hearing. AS for the public, we've
had nothing but praise from hun
dreds of citizens all over the coun-
try"
In New York the American Civil
Liberties union announced that 1t
had communicated with Detroit's S
police commissioner, Harry S. Toy,
objecting to ''the police office set
ting itself up as censor and guar
dian of public morals"
'We're glad," Jack Liebowitz, OF
the National Comics group, which
publishes 80 other books, said, that
something is being done to apprise
those publishers who are not cog
infant of their responsibility that
things can't go on unchecked. But
we feel that our book was mistak-
enly banned in Detroit as it is In
indianapolis, although we're willing
to make changes"
John Byrne, editor of wings
Comics" Jumbo Comics" and
Eight Comics," which have been
banned, felt that his books "repre'
sent in 1948 what Nick Carter and
Tom Swift used to represent" but
added, 1--WE dor't edit our maga'
zines for children"
