To the Editor of the CRIMSON:
The attitude of the Liberal Club in the matter of censorship is too well known to need elucidation. There are, of course, on the news stands many periodicals for the suppression of which more or less reasonable argument might be advanced; but in the case of the suppression of the Lampoon, surely the zeal of our protectors has outrun itself.
The reasons alleged the desecration of the American flag, and the reproduction with slight changes of a famous painting banging in the Luxembourg are almost too puerile to merit credence. It seems clear that in this case the guardians of our patriotism and morals approach the stage of being nuisances rather than legitimate defenders. C. T. Lane '26. President of the Liberal Club.
