NUDITY ON STAGE
DENOUNCED BY BISHOP CAMPAIGN TO CLEAN UP LONDON THEATRES Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, November 3. From the pulpit of the fashionable St. James’s Church, Piccadilly, the Bishop of London, at a service convened by the Public Morality League, announced that there would be a campaign to dean up the London stage. “ The other day I was called in by the Lord Chamberlain, who said he was going to call together every person responsible for London theatres and tell them that this nudity on the London stage has got to stop. I have reason to believe that they now all realise that they permit it at their peril.” The nakedness of girls was extremely bad for decadent young men who found pleasure therein.
