HC Deb 20 February 1929 vol 225 cc1137-8W
Mr. BECKETT

asked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been drawn to the performance given at the New Cross Empire by a troupe known as the Coney Island Freaks; and whether he will make inquiries as to the desirability of preventing any further exhibitions of this character?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

Yes, Sir. I understand that the exhibition has now been withdrawn, but I am in communication with the London County Council who are the licensing authority for the music hall concerned.
