Pastor Calls Society
Ball ''Pure Paganism''
DR.. Strat0n Assails Modern
Dancing as Ubiquitous; Says
That Churches Adopt 1t

An expression of pure paganism'
is the Rev. DR.. John Roach Straton's
Characterization, delivered yesterday
in the pulpit of Calvary Baptist
Church, of the "Bal Bleu" held ut
the Ritz Carlton Hotel the night of
May B.. The ball was under the aus
pices of the big Sisters" for the bet
terment Of children, especially girls,
brought before the Children's Court
and was sponsored by twenty-five
women socially prominent.
DR.. Straton, whose subject was "The
Capture Of the Christian Church bv
the World" denounced modern dancing
as one of the most iniquitous influ-
ences of the day and deplored the
fact that this form of diversion has
been introduced even into some of the
citys churches.
The remarkable thing about the
ball at the Ritz, DR.. Straton told his
congregation, is that it was linked up
Catholic and Jewish. He pointed out
that in the advertisement appearing
in the daily newspapers announcing
the ball 1T was stated that Florenz
Zlegfeld, jr., would provide entertain
ment and that those attending would
see the initial appearance of English
and French stage beauties" The pas
tor continues:
Here, then, is most complete
blending together Of the dance and
the most flippant side of the theatre,
with the forces of religion and the
people of the modern church"
Turning to the question Of dancing in
the churches and the introduction of
theatrical stars in to certain pulpits in
the effort to attract crowds" DR..
Straton declared: Cali of these things
are shocking and horrible treason to
Jesus and His divine and holy truth.
and the time has come for a stiffenine
OF our moral backbones and for a
war to the death upon these insidious
vices that are doing so much to para
lyze the church and that are sapping
the very life Of modern society,""

No Trade With Germany
To Be Brazilian PoIicv
President-Elect Pessoa Says An )
werp Will Succeed Ham
burg as Market

BRUSSELS, May 11.-Dr. Epitacio
Pessoa, President-elect of Brazil, was
deeply impressed by the visit he has
Just paid to the devastated regions of
Belgium.
"When l visited the French front" "
DR.. Pessoa told an interviewer, II felt
sure that France had suffered more
than Belgium, because I was told that
there was in Belgium temperance of
normal life. / now understand the
situation better. The industry of Bel
gium has received mortal blow and
the Allies ought to have insisted that
Germany return Immediately all Bel
GUMS stolen machinery and restore
what Germany has destroyed methodi-
cally and scientifically.
Moreover, France has been occupied
only in part and the manufacturers
Of the invaded French territories are
able to establish themselves elsewhere,
while no such escape is possible for
the Belgian manufacturers.
"There is great hostility now be-
tween Brazil and Germany, and my
greatest desire is to extend economic
and political relations with the Allies.
To carry out this policy will be one
of the tasks of my administration. We
will no longer deal with Hamburg, Sc
lecting Antwerp in it's place."

Democrats Talk of
Making Mrs. Lilly
Assembly Leader:
Selection Is Considered by
Tammany Chiefs to Win
Support of Women Vot-
ers Upstate for 1920

Mrs. Mary NJ Lilly. school teacher
and lawyer, and one of the two women
members Of the Assembly, may be
chosen minority leader of the Assem-
bly, next year if her district, the 7th
New York, returns her to the Legisla-
ture.
This was the opinion of leaders of
Tammany Hall yesterday when they
were apprised that Charles D. Dono-
hue, the present Democratic leader of
the Assembly, would not be candidate
for reelection, but would, instead, run
for place on the CITY Court bench.
1t would not be unusual for second
year member of the Assembly to be
chosen a party leader. That has hap
pened several times, and on one occa-
sion first year member was elected
Speaker.
Woman Vote Sought
While Mrs. Lilly comes from a Re-
publican stronghold, having been
elected by majority of only 229, Tam
many leaders believe she may be able
to corral the bulk Of the woman vote
in her district, thus assuring her re-
election. And her selection as minor
ity leader, the Democrats argue, would
help to keep down the Republican ma
jority in this state in 1920
One Tammany leader said:
"Only Whitman's unpopularity, COM
bined with influenza and a wreck in
Brooklyn, made it possible to elect
'Al' Smith Governor. Now if we could
win over the woman vote from the Re-
publlcans upstate, we might be able
New-York tribune., 1919-05-12

to make respectable showing in this
state in 1920. Personally, / cannot
think Of better method than having
Mrs. Lilly chosen to lead the Demo-
Gratis in the Assembly,"
Republicans Scoff at Idea
Republicans who heard Of the Tam
many proposal declared it did not ring
true, insisting that a combination of
circumstances such as resulted in the
defeat of the Republican candidate in
Mrs. Lilly's district last fall could not
occur again.
When this was conveyed to Tammany
men they declared the suggestion was
sincere. They suggested that Of the
older men in the Assembly on the
minority side two, Mark, Goldberg and
marty" McCue, with thirteen years
service in the lower house, and several
others with ten years or more, none of
them seriously aspired to the leader
ship, and it was essential to pick a
omparatively new member.

Impossible Says Dernburg
Financial Terms of Treaty Can't

impossible! Impossible!" said DR..
Dernburg when asked his opinion con-
cerning the financial terms of the
treaty. He emphasized his reply with
a despairing upward gesture Of both
hands
"It is like amputating both q mans
legs and then asking him to do aero
batic stunts" he continued.
He said the stipulation giving prec-
edence to indemnities over Germany's 8
own debts would wreck the whole Ger
man business structure. since banks
and big Joint stock companies have
reserves chiefly in war loans. He be-
lieved Germany would make strong
representations to Paris against the
financial paragraphs of the treaty.
Before America entered the war DR..
Dernburg was the chief Of Germany's

HARDSHIPS OF
EARLYDAYS0N
GLACIER TRAIL

Shortly after the stampede to the
North in 1S97-1898, owing to unusual
restrictions imposed upon American
miners passing through Canadian ter
ritory, the government determined to
