Florence Davies Woman’s Editorial Mother and the Law. Edward Kaylln, 9 years old, of East One Hundred and Ninety-fourth street, New York, haa probably never heard very much about the discus sion of censorship for pictures and books. But whether he knows It or not he has settled the matter for most sensi ble people. When the legislature of New York state was considering a bill to make it legal for children under 16 to go to the movies unchaperoned Edward wrote a letter of protest to the gov ernor. "Please tell me," he asked, "what good It Is to pass a bill like that to a boy whose mother won't let him go there alone anyhow, law or no law?" Now what Edward evidently had In mind was that the governor should go a little farther and either get out an Injunction or send a policeman or something, to make his mother let him go, since removing the law was the least of his troubles. The insurmountable barrier was mother. And unwittingly Edward has put his finger on the very keynote of the whole problem, of good and bad movies, or books. If mother Isn't the insurmountable barrier against bad manners and bad morals and bad pictures, the law has a pretty slim chance. And for grown people who are out from under the sheltering care of mother. Individual taste must ulti mately be the same Insurmountable barrier. The trouble Is that most people want to remedy things by what they th.nk Is the easiest way. They say, “There ought to be a law,” and that settles it. That's the lasy man's way out of everything. Is anything wrong? "There ought to be a law." It's the same with the schools and the children. Are they careless or underfed, or sickly or unpatriotic or untidy—-or any one of a dozen other things that they ought not to be? What'a the answer? “They ought to teach them In the schools." But there Is a point beyond which the schools and the law cannot go. No censorship law can ever be ac curate enough to Judge the pictures that your child may not gee and that another child may see. Keeping minors out of the movies at night Is a wholesome safeguard for children whose mothers aren't on •he.Job. But small Edward has the real answer to the whole problem. "My mother wouldn't let me. law or no law." Good for Mrs. Kaylln of the Bronx. There Is one mother who Is on the Job. The only laws for children and movies or for good movies Instead of had ones, which will ever amount to anything are the ones that mothers make for their children or that the grown folks make for themselves. You can't legislate taste, but mothers caji teach it.
