“Birth of a Nation”
Barred From Ohio
Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 8.—Selecting
a time when Governor Willis was en [
route to California, to make applica
tion. the producers of the photoplay,
“The Birth of a Nation,” applied Sep
tember 21 to the state board of cen
sors to show the films in Ohio.
Believing the governor’s declaration
that no plays designed to incite racial
hatred should be produced in Ohio
while he was governor, the colored
people of Ohio rested under the im
pression that the producers would not
apply for permission to show in this
state. They were, however, advised
that application had been made, and
two private shows given before the
board of censors. Immediately ar
rangements were made to file a pro
test against a permit being granted.
Various church and civic organiza
tions among both races joined in the
protest. The mayor of the city,
George J. Karb; former Secretary of
State D. J. Ryan, Dr. Washington
Gladden, Rabbi Kornfield, and others
signed the protest. A hearing was
had and September 28 the state board
of censors took final action on “The
Birth of a Nation” moving picture,
and issued an order barring it from
the state of Ohio.
Under this order the vicious Dixon
photoplay cannot be shown in this
state, regardless of changes that
might be made in the film.
