Although an application for a license for a Sunday motion picture show to be held in Riverpoint was accompanied by an indorsement from Gov. Beeckman, the West Warwick board of police commissioners last evening refused the license and went on record as firmly opposed to these entertainments on Sundays.
In the communication to the police commission it appeared that the proposed entertainment was for the benefit of the Eleventh Company Aid Association, but Chairman Quinlan of the board of police commissioners said he had been reliably informed that the matter had been initiated by a person not connected with that organization. He declared it another attempt to let down the bars for Sunday picture shows.
