YANKEE Dance HALL
PLANNED INEONDON

LONDON. May 6.-The British are
not a dancing people. Before the war
something less than , per cent OF the
people were able to dance, and what
was more, they were Indifferent 10
this form OF amusement.
Dance halls, with the exception OF
the celebrated halls OF Blackpool and
the Isle OF Man. which catered mainly
to the factory hands OF the great in
dustriaI towns of the north, were al
most without exception confined to
the premises OF the dancing teachers,
the type being either a miniature hall
or a made over store building.
The mixing Of the people due to the
war has made q great change. and to-
day half the people OF Britain either
dance or wish to learn the art. With
this new taste the present, accom-
mediation is totally inadequate to
meet the needs OF the people. and
once again an American citizen has
come forward and provided the necea
sary means for both teaching and
practice.

EQUITABLELIFE

That the Equitable Life Assurance
Society OF the United States has
written over so per cent more in
surance in Washington during the
first four months of 1919 than for
any like period in its history. and
that this reflects the confidence OF the
public in an unprecedented era OF
prosperity, was the statement today
OF George =. Jordan, Washington
manager Of the society.
The society has insured the lives
Of Washingtonians to the extent OF
over $500, 900 since January l. accord
ing to MI Jordan. against 100000.
tile highest amount for any other
four months in the firms history.
Real estate loans in Washington
amount to $2,0O0,0 900 at the present
time, but this feature OF their bust
ness has slowed down considerably
in the past year owing to the COM
pany's investment in liberty loans
and the vast amount of Government
construction work, which has tenn
poraTily stopped private enterprises.
Mr.. Jordan looks for a resumption
OF building on a scale hitherto I'M
thought Of as soon as public con-
fdence in the stability of pr ces Is
restored. ''The public generally can
not be expected to build" he stated,
until they know the value of a build
ing they may put up will not be i'm
paired by a falling off in prices. We
are prepared to do the largest bust
ness Of our career when prices are
stabilized"
Mr.. Jordan declared that the next
twelve months will usher N the
greatest period OF prosperity the
country ever dreamed OF, and that
