Mr. Gow responded by s{ating that the ordinance essentially deals with the definition that the United States Supreme Court has settled on to define obscenity; that the first amendment pro- tects films which, when considered as a whole, and in the con- text in which they are used, possess serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value; that the ordinance will apply only to films that the courts will uphold to be obscene.
