Unexamined Examiner

Boston, it becomes increasingly evident, likes to insure in its theatre censors a fresh and unprejudiced approach to the task of keeping pure the morals of playgoers in the Athens of America. The retiring stage censor of the Hub, John M. Casey, received his training for the post as trap drummer in a vaudeville orchestra, while his newly-appointed successor, twenty-eight-year old Stanton M. White, has approached the dramatic muse through a career as "art photographer" and county pay-master. Still further assurance of his fitness for the post of thespian Cato in Boston is found in the circumstance that Mr. White's father was once on the stage. That he is the son-in-law of Mayor Curley's brother and that he passed up the high position of county paymaster when it was discovered that a civil service examination was a pre-requisite to that office would seem to be circumstances quite unrelated to his new honors.

With dramatic purity assured by the high qualifications of Censor White and with literature in Boston still one of the principal concerns of Superintendent of Police Michael H. Crowley, the decline in prestige and potency of the Watch and Ward Society of New England need be no cause for alarm. Chaste virtue will still be the essential characteristic of service of the Muses along the banks of the Charles so long as Boston's morals are in the hands of those guardian cherubim, Stan White and Mike Crowley. --New York Herald-Tribune.
