Louis II. .Chalif Appeals to New
York Conference for Broad
er Ruling.

Can dancing master break into the
Methodist Church2 The question has
been addressed seriously to the New
York Conference OF the Methodists, in
session at Cornwall. N. Y, by Louis H.
Chalif, and he pauses for reply.
Mr.. Chalif has sent to the conference
an open letter on the subject. He says
he writes representing the American
National Association. Masters of Dane
ing the New York Dancing Teachers
Association, also the American Conclave
OF Dancing Teachers Association, of
which / am president" Last fall
Chalif addressed similar appeal to
Methodists OF New Jersey, in session at
Atlantic City. and was told the door
was not open for him there.
Saluting the ministers at Cornwall as
Fellow Christians" he reminds them
that Senior Bishop Joseph ii. Berry of
Philadelphia, speaking for the Methodist
Board of Bishops, said on November 20
last: mo dancing master or actor could
get into the Methodist Church without
very sincere repentance. Dancing and
theatregoing are specifically prohibited
to members"
Mr.. Chalif also cites the case of Miss
Edna l.. Shaw of Wichita, Kan, who
he says, was excluded from the First
Methodist Episcopal Church of that city
because she was a dancing teacher.
"On behalf OF the amusement profess
sion," Mr.. Chalif continues in his letter.
II ask whether this Is the attitude OF
the New York Conference area? Dane
irg teachers of the United States are
always glad to cooperate with the Meth
odist and other denominations 10 help
raise the standard OF dancing. How
ever. we cannot quietly submit to being
rated as undesirable citizens
1--WE respectfully request the Meth
odist Church to adopt more broad
minded viewpoint Of the entire amuse-
ment problem. We also publicly appeal
TO other sects to reason with the Meth
odists so that the spirit OF Christianity
may permeate inside and outside Of
Methodism"

Der OF Commerce in New York on the
occasion Of Its fifteenth annual dinner
and ball. held In the Biltmore Hotel.

OF important travel scholarships.
The Ambassador in the course OF his
address recommended that his hearers
see to it that their children study and
learn the Italian as well as the Eng
lish language. The younger genera
tions. he said, should not be permitted
to forget the tongue or their fathers.
I'm order to encourage the young
people in the study OF Italian" said
Slgnor Rolandi-Ricci, II have deter
mined TO establish u certain number OF
travel scholarships to be assigned every
year as prize to the sons of Italians,
including those who have become Amer
lean citizens. who have shown the
greatest diligence and profit in the
study of Italian. These scholarships
VIII give the winners a three months
trip from here TO Italy, where they will
visit Palermo, Naples, Rome, Florence,
Bologna. Trieste. Venice, Milan, Turin
and Genoa. A certain number OF young
people thus will be able to revisit the
glorious country Of their fathers
Banks Aid Project.
The Ambassador explained that,
through the cooperation OF Nicola Mir
aglia. the Bank OF Naples had set aside
for him for this purpose 10000 lire.
Here" he added. II have been assured
or the liberal support OF other Italian
banks, including the National Exchange
Institute and the Banca Commercials
ltaliana, the Credito Italiano, the Ital-
ian Discount and Trust Company and
the Bank OF Rome, which have offered
me $4,000. thus covering the expenses
for the current year. For the coming
years the same assurance has been
given me by Mr.. Miele In the name OF
the powerful Order OF the Sons of

and social stability of the Italian Gov
ernment and urged that no effort be
spared in the promotion OF trade. as
well as friendship. between America
and Italy.
We must not allow a country TO be
judged" he said. by some phrase taken
at random. You know that In Italy the
sun Is hot and that. therefore. the blood
is not always cold; you know that with
US there is no prohibition In the use
of wine; you know that emphasis and
hyperbole are of common use and
abuse; the consumption OF rhetoric Il
greater than that OF bread.
