De Minimis Non Curat Lex
A traditional byword of American bluestockingism is "banned in Boston." And when it comes to obscenity Elijah Adlow, chief justice of the Boston Municipal Court, is something of a hard-nose. Yet last week he lodged a rather curious protest against lewdness: he dismissed the case against a stripper who got carried away.
It seems that Lusia Ferrus, an attraction at Boston's Normandy Lounge, neglected to stop at the required pasties and G string. She was promptly busted. Noting the salacious slaverings in X-rated movies the police are constantly shutting down, Adlow let Lusia go. Said the judge: "This was my personal protest against the protection given by the higher courts to X-rated movies and shows. What this girl was doing at least has redeeming social value. It keeps her off welfare."
