Thereafter the public may enter...
Adequately proving that they can be dangerous when aroused, the intelligentsia of New York have met together in solemn conclave to offer their support to a bill before the State Senate. This measure provides that publishers of allegedly obscene books as well as independent booksellers are to be held liable before the courts. Though at first glance this resembles the work of the Watch and Ward at its most obnoxious, further investigation reveals that there is stratagem embodied in the bill which fully justifies is proponents...
