The Anglican clergymen in Ottawa, | at a meeting presided over by their bishop, discussed the trend of drama- | tic entertainment nowadays, and their | idea was that some official should be | appointed by "the government to cen- | sor plays. The problem is not practi- | cable. The official may not see any- | 'thing in a play which is objectionable ahd the clergyman may: see a great | deal. There was a recent illustration of this point.
