Be A Regular Sairer, New 'York (Special) .—George if. Bell,. the Commissioner of Licenses, and the National' Board of Cen­ sorship of Motion Pictures, won a victory ovet the Life Photo’ Firm Corporation when Judge Vernon M.. Davis, hi the Supreme Court, Manhattan, vacated * temporary In­ junction restraining the City of New -York from. Interfering With the pro? ductlOn of “Tha Ordeal,^ a series of War pictures which had hBen extern - sively advertised. The, pictures haft been' originally condemned by the National Board of Censorship on the ground that alleged German 'atrocities Were shown and that their exhibition would ho a viola* tion pf the principle of neutrality. The pictures, however, were shown In de­ fiance of the Board’s condemnation, at the Lexington AVenue Theatre. Coni' plaints were, .made to Commissioner Bell, who consulted with WilUsm D. McGuire, Jr., executive secretary of the National Board of Censorship, and learned the reason for the rejection of the pictures. HO Ordered the moving views off the screen. A representa­ tive of the Commissioner also viewed the pictures and decided that the Board of Censorship had acted proper­ ly in declinlhg to “pass” the Aims, The producing corporation stied out an injunction against -the License Commissioner, and after a lengthy hearing Justice Davis vacated the in­ junction. This is a victory for -the License Commissioner, for the deci­ sion of the court establishes the claim that tho police powers of the city extend, not alone to pictures or plays that are obscene or immoral in' their character, hut include Also pic­ tures of photoplays which are believed to be against public policy.
