Putting the 'banned' label on this will bring it attention it doesn't really deserve.
The main reason for the controversy was the depiction of south seas' blacks as cannibals. That was a regular occurrence in these cartoons.
The humor is so dated that I truly believe anyone who sees it today won't get most of the jokes. It may belong in a time capsule, but it's only place is in history.
Did anyone notice the native guard suddenly talking like a Chinaman? Typical 30's cartoon. Filled with spot gags so it never gets boring, but it never takes off either.
The final line is the best. If you can find it, see for yourself.
