Whenever, in the judgment of the Commissioner of Police,
any entertainment, exhibition, play, act, motion picture or performance offends
against public decency or morals, or any such entertainment, exhibition, play,
motion picture, act or performance advertised to be given is objectionable
from a moral standpoint or likely to create public disorder, he shall notify
the manager of the theater wherein such entertainment, exhibition, play, act,
motion picture or performance is advertised to be produced that the entertainment,
exhibition, play, act, motion picture or performance shall not, pending a
public hearing, be given, and he may cause the same, in each case pending
public hearing, to be censored before being produced in public, and may order
any and all objectionable language and features eliminated before being produced
in public, or he may suppress such entertainment, exhibition, play, act, motion
picture or performance altogether if in his opinion the public good requires
such action. No person shall produce any entertainment, exhibition, play,
act, motion picture or performance, or permit the same to be produced, in
disregard of any notice given or order made by said Commissioner under the
authority conferred upon him by this section.
