986.85 and that its running expenses over the same period amounted to $373,927.97, leaving a profit to the state of $480,058.88. During the past year receipts amounted to $197,049.34, the largest in the history of the commission, but its operating expenses of $89,956.33 were also the largest.
In connection with the Commission's report, a portion is devoted to the aid that has been given the commission by state troopers who visit the theaters in the smaller communities and who report directly back to their head, on any violations of the law. The same recommendations were made by the Commission as a year ago, which include one giving the Commission power to stop the showing of pictures in which criminals or persons of a debased character appear.
The Commission also calls attention to a question as to the power of municipalties to prevent the exhibition of films that have been licensed by the state. It appears that there have been one or two complaints of this sort coming fdom the municipality which has a censoring board of its own, and where persons in charge insist that different eliminations be made from the picture other than deemed necessary by the Commission.
According to the Commission pictures have shown great improvement since the censorship became effective in New York State, the report closing with a declaration to the effect that on account of the millions invested in motion picture theaters, that there is even greater need of censorship and clean, wholesome pictures than ever before, not only to protect the public, but also to protect those whose fortunes are invested in the theaters.
