EPSTEIN STATUES.
GROUP ON N.Z. GOVERNMENT BUILDING. (UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION—BY ELECTRIC telegiiaph—corsaioirr.) (Received September 28th, 5.5 p.m.) LONDON, September 26. A group of' Epstein statues on the British Medical Association's building in the Strand, which shocked London 25 years ago, and became known as the "Epstein indecencies," but the nakedness of which has been considerably toned down by London grime, is again in the limelight. The New Zealand Government now owns the building, which has been marked out tor demolition. The British Medical Association says that it is not feasible to make an oner for the statues for its new building in Tavistock Squaro,. because Epstein would hardly harmonise with an Elizabethan courtyard.
