Censorship Fight Trains Sunday Theater Closures Push
Protest by the Missionary Union led commissioners to order heightened supervision of 5 and 10 cent theaters. WCTU members attacked licensed venues while ministers urged closing, but officials said they cannot close on Sundays or revoke licenses without due process. Public decency concerns and calls for stricter regulation dominated the meeting as police promised prompt referral of violations.
