SACRAMENTO, Cal, Oct. 2s.-
Dancing has undergone the search

been found wanting.
The Califoria District Court OF
Appeals, In a decision handed down
today, ruled that the modern dance
and the good old-fashioned folk
dance as well. too often distract the
youthful mind from the Important

Under the circumstances no school
board has the right TO force chill

The case Is one which c. G. Hard

Fruit Ridge school district from

and son, Douglas. aged ., to dance

Folk dancing is similar to mod
ern popular dancing" the court
found after studying the subject
more than three months.
Dancing "indiscriminately in

sion as developing in the young
thoughts or propensities incompat-
IDLE with the higher concept OF mo-

MILLIONS WASTED,
Sec. HOOVER SAYS
Tells Chemical Manufacturers
Industry Must Save
By-Products.

There is still an enormous field
industry can reclaim. for the country,
Herbert Hoover. Secretary of Com
merce, told the Synthetic Organic
Chemical Manufacturers Association
at its meeting at the Hotel Washing
ton last night.
The coke oven today that is not
recovering its by-products, but is
turning its riches into the air, is
causing loss that can never be re-
covered" he said. Mr.. Hoover es-
timated that If all the formerly-wast-
ed derivates Of wood and coal prod
ucts, on which the organic chemical
industry depends. were turned to ac-
count. they would have a value of up
wards of $1,000, 100000 per year.
The real purpose of the orga mic
chemical industry is not to manufac-
chemical industry Is not to manu-
facture explosives and poisonous
making Photographic chemicals. dyes,
medicines, perfumes and other neces-
sites, Mr.. Hoover pointed out. But
be said: 1T is fundamental and vital
to US that We should maintain those
industries on which we are bound to
depend for our existence If we ever
come to conflict"
The 1000 or more trade associa-
tions in this country, so per cerSt of
which have been created in the last
ten or fifteen years. Mr.. Hoover
praised as a great vital movement
and a permanent addition to our

LORD ROBERT CECIL
HAMPERS PREMIER
IN IRISH DISCUSSION
Amends Act in Parila-
ment to Censure Pol
icy on Ireland.

LONDON, Oct. 2s.-Into the WELL
oiled machinery with which Pre-
mier Lloyd George expected to roll
q parliamentary victory on the
Irish situation next Monday. Lord
Robert Cecil has thrown a wrench
which may disrupt the Premier's
program and which will at least
present him a delicate problem for
solution before he finds himself
free to go to America.
with the expectation Of bringing
about a coalition OF those elements
which, while opposed to the gov
uancs OF the Irish peace confer
ence, Lord Robert has introduced
an amendment to the original res
olution of censure which would
practically kill that measure. His
amendment reads:
Break Would he Dangerous.
while deploring the policy-or
want Of policy-of the government
in ireland for the last three years.
the House of Commons is OF the
opinion that to break of the ncgo-
tiations with Sim Fein at the
present stage would only add to
the dangers and difficulties Of the
situation
Defeat by the government of
the original tory resolution
which utterly condemns the peace
pariey is conceded But Lloyd
George must now also beat the c.
Gil amendment which is apt to at
tract the less conservative ele-
ments. And these factions may
unite to expires displeasure over
Lloyd Georges handling of Eng
lands greatest domestic problem,
even though they emphasize they
would hesitate to cause break
down in the. peace conference.
Robert Expects support.
Lord Robert is expected to rally
many laborites, some liberals. and
many unionists.
Lloyd Georges argument against
the first motion Is simple. He will
explain that war Is the only alter
native to negotiating. and that II
the conference fails Ireland will
f'reVert to the bitter strife of the
past. He Will declare that II the
government is not backed up by
Parliament 1t must appeal to the
people to prevent Ireland's seces-
sion from the Empire, and that the
support OF the country can be OBJ
tanned only after generous domIn-
ion rule has been offered to Sim
Fem.
In the meantime 1t is reliably re-
ported that there will be no fur

ence until after Monday. Lloyd
