PICTURE POSTERS.
A STRICTER CENSORSHIP. By Talegraph.—Press Association. Auckland, 'Lfjst Night. The movement towards securing stricter censorship of piqture posters and programmes again came before the Board of Education to-day, a reply from the Minister of Internal Affairs to representations made by the Board being read, to the meeting. The Minister stated that although he had been in office, only a few weeks, he regretted to say that several similar complaints on the subject had reached him, and from the samples of handbills and advertisements forwarded to him it was evident that some action would require to be taken to effect an improvement, particularly in the interests of the younger members of the community. He was at present making inquiries to see whether there was power under the existing law to censor handbills, posters, etc. If not, then he proposed bringing the matter under the notice of Cabinet, with a view of having legislation introduced during the coming session.
