Question Attorney General
On Bus-R Ride Legality

CLEVELAND NC) Strongsville school board,
which received an opinion from Cuyahoga County
prosecutor that transporting parochial school pupils
on public school buses is legal now has asked the
Ohio Attorney General for an opinion.
Lewis A. Lenkaitis, Strongsville school superin-
tendent, said the board is seeking the Attorney Cen
erals opinion because he is the highest legal advisor
to the State and is the legal counsel for the state
board of education.
The question arose after a request from parents
of st. Joseph parish school pupils who live and pay
taxes in the Strongsville School district. A similar
petition was turned down nine years ago.

Artistic activity whatever its inten-
ton, can be regarded as contributing to
or detracting from human welfare. In
other words, art can and does have social
effects This does not mean that moral
instruction is the primary function of the
artist The fact that works of art can be
used by parent minister, and teacher to
serve their ends does not make the artist
a moralist or teacher any more than it
makes him parent or minister. But inso-
far as art can have social effects, it is
argued that it should be subject to some
minimal social control.

A Greet Thinker Looks at Life

DR.. Mortimer J. Adler is recognized
as one of the great original thinkers
of the Goth century. After recetUing
his Phi. D. degree from Columbia Uni
UerStty in 1928, he joined Robert M.
HutchinS at the University of Chicago,
lohere they introduced courses based
on reading and discussing the Great
Books. In 1916, this activity t0GS
extended to adults through the Great
Books Foundation Dr. Adler nolD is
director OF the Institute of PhiloSoph-
icdl Research in San Francisco.

and delicate one, as are
all questions concerning
official control over
matters that affect pub
lie morality. Broadly
speaking, there are
three main positions
that have been taken on
this issue.
You may remember
that Plato decided to
Danish the poets and
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-07-12

Danish the poets and
dramatiStS from his ideal republic, because
of the harmful influence that he thought
they would have. Plato insisted that all the
arts in his society should serve prescribed
moral and political ends. He made all of
them, therefore, subject to governmental
control.
The rulers of the state considered
themselves the cuStodianS of virtue. They
were under obligation to suppress any
artistic activity that would weaken virtue
and to support artistic activity that would
cause it to flourish. Plato is typical of the
first position, which advocates total polit
ical control of the arts and their products.
Far at the other end of the scale is
the position which insists on the completely
unfettered freedom of the arts. The claS-
steal defender of this position is John
Milton. He writes
II cannot praise a furtive and
clustered virtue, unexerciSed and un-
breathed, that never SallieS out and
sees the adversary that which
purifles us is trial and trial is by what
is contrary. The virtue therefore which
is but a youngling in the contempla
ton of evil, and knows not the utmost
that vice promises to her followers, and
rejects it, is but a blank virtue, not
pure.
Milton makes a strong act of faith in
human nature. He conceives it as more
robust and far less corruptible than Plato
Accordingly he recommends that individ-
uals aided by sound moral education should
be exposed to both good and evil, and then
choose the good. In his view, the virtue
that results will be sounder for having been
thus tested
The third position lies between these
two and borrows something from both. 1t
asserts that the state should not determine
what kinds of arts are permitted. This
position, however, is distinguished from that
of Milton by the fact that it insists on
reserving to society some control over the
exhibition of works of art to the public at
large. This is, in fact the middle ground
that we have adopted in America.

TNHE CONTROVERSY over censorship
Il does, indeed, go back to the earliest
times and is still being carried on in the
world today The question is difficult
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-07-12

Understood this way, censorship is seen
as a way of protecting the adolescent, the
physically unbalanced, and the fooliShly
gullible from those who pander to and
profit from their weakness But everyone
realizes that prohibitions are far less effec-
tive than robust intellectual and moral
habits which render human nature less
frail
1t is also clear to many that censorship
can be easily abused and can easily de-
generate into arbitrary interference with
art. Censorship. for example, cannot assume
responsibility for the accidental effects of
genuinely artistic works. 1t may be true
that the very young, the emotionally dis
turbed, or even normal adults seeking
excitation do, in some instances, find a
particular play, book, or movie stimulus
to immoral conduct. But more often than
not that has something to do with the
particular spectator or reader and not
with the work itself.
The use or abuse of any social control
exercised over the arts depends almost
exclusively on the prudence, the discretion,
and the liberality of those who exercise
the power of censorship. More important,
however, is the reduction of censorship
itself by raising private and public morality
to the point where the necessity for it
becomes negligible.

DeMille could keep even the
Ten Commandments level with
the technical progress in
movie-making. 1t delights Mr..
Koury to tell how 1t was to
work for the man who always
remembered even the lesser
Shalt Nots and turned them
into Hollywood millions.
Moreover, he always comes
up with the telling anecdote
to supply the final evidence Of
the DeMille method in this
area. AS, for instance. the one
of how Delilah came by the
low bra (sorryD that could
have come out Of Saks Fifth
Avenue but certainly did not
come out Of her own time.
Just as DeMille predicted.
everyone noticed the bra while
no one observed its defiance of
period dress. Absolutely no one.

in a kind Of grudging admira-
ton.

The wealth Of anecdotage
available to him has not d.
verted Biographer Koury from
the task Of telling how the
Last Of the Pashas" got that
way.
Son of a playwright who
evaded the ministry to become
David Belasco's partner in the
theater, DeMille began as a
child to dramatic the expert
ence of being a mere human
creature. In later years, he
would look back upon the
family's cozy time, to eve
ningS when his father would
read to Cecil and his brother.
William. In adulthood, DeMille
could still hear the paternal
voice reading dramatically one
chapter each from the Old and
New TeStaments, and another
from American history.
Oddly, Brother William, a
scholar and teacher who quick
ly fed the drama, could recall
no such family ritual. Still
can't, Koury reports.

Nevertheless, the performance

resemblance definitely is not a

the same height and weight as

coloring and hair. Beyond that,

Maria for work clothes selects

Is standing-in a rugged job?

there's generally enough free
time so I can sit down, put ur

To qualify as a stand-in, ar

ranks. Their scale is $20.0S
