...book has been banned, the only effect has unfortunately been a good deal of mud-slinging by those on either side of the question, without any effort to fight on common ground. That there should be some assembly whose function would be to discuss and criticize matters that come up for censorship, submitting at least an advisory opinion to the body in which the actual power is vested, has become manifest.
