For ANNUAL
DANCES
Muscles of Body React to
Jazz, Investigator
Discovers
BY ROLAND KREBS,
international News service.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.--It's not
the dancers at all, but the music
that's to blame for the prevalent
rough and tumble dancing, the In
ternational Association of Masters
Of Dancing was told here today at
its convention.
Edward s. Hurst, Of Atlanta, Ga,
said so. He based his conclusions
on observations made as one of q
committee sent by the convention to
tour exclusive roof gardens, less ex-
elusive cabarets and downright dives
In Greenwich Village.
| So convinced is Hurst that the
music popular in cheaper dance
halls is making savages Of persons
who really want to step around with.
dignity that he is going from here
to the convention next week in
Chicago of the American National
Association Of Masters OF Dancing
to tell its delegates so. He wants
the international and national asso-
Citations to appoint a joint commit,
tee to visit the associated song
writer's and beg them to please lay
off.
''An over the body,3 Hurst said,
ARE muscles, each responsive to
some twist, slur or tempo in music.
The farmer boy who doesn't know
how to dance a step can't help slap.
ping his foot when he hears, 'Tur.
key in the Straw Other bits Of
music make other parts of the body
respond with emotion"
. Systematically, Hurst explained,
a sedate couple who might wish for
all the world to dance a stately
schottish could not control these
responsive muscles when they hear
the music popular with majority
of dance orchestras. A bleat from
the clarinet may turn their third
lumbar vertebrae inside out and
make them try to climb into the
spot allotted to the sixth dorsal
vertebrae.
So in no time at all these sedate
people are twitching and bouncing
and shimmying with the rest OF
them.
This illustrates it," Hurst said.
I'VE went into one Of those places
in the village where the air is. so
thick with smoke that you can
slice it. Girls and boys, cigarettes
pasted on their lower lips and wear
ing caps, danced these animal
dances as toughly as possible. Then,
for a change, the orchestra would
strike up a waltz or a tango. These
same little ruffians would instantly
become pictures of grace and dig
Unity, responding ito the music"

the railroads send their appeals.
1t is to business men--and par.
ticularly to business men in the
advisory boards'-that the rail-
roads point out the improvements
which can be demonstrated in
plant and service and the reduc.
tons which can be demonstrated
in rates.
They point out, for instance. that
great financial savings have been
effected for shippers since 1921.
They point out that il the freight
rates of 1921 had remained in
existence and had not been reduced.
the freight bills of the shippers in
1922 would have been some $780,.
OOO,O bigger than they were, and
in 1928 would have been some $780,
100000 bigger, and in the first six
months of this year would have
been bigger by some $500, 200, 900.
Altogether the rate reductions
made since 1921 have reduced the
freight bills Of the shippers by
some $1,000. 200, 000;- and this has
been accomplished, as the railroad
managers truthfully allege, along
with better service instead of worse
Such is now the situation and
such is now the propaganda" of
the railroads. They hope, and they
sometimes believe. that their Inn
proved plant and service and their
improved relations with shippers
wills enable them to outstrip La
Toilette radicalism in ultimate in
fluence upon legislation in Congress.
Their main difficulty remains the
hostility of their own employees;
who do not like the present Esch-
CumminS transportation law, par
ticularly in that part of it which
establishes the Railroad Labor
Board.
If the railroad managers could
placate their employees by consent.
ing, for instance. to the adjustment
of the Railroad Labor Board. the
bottom might drop out of lot of
contemporary anti-railroad agita-
ton.
Warren S. Stone, the enormously
able and enormously powerful
leader of the Brotherhood of Loco.
motive Engineers, is supporting the
new La Toilette. party with its de.
mand for Government ownership of
railroads, but has made the follow.
ing perhaps highly significant re.
mark:
"The railroad brOtherhOOds have
no quarrel with private ownership
II such ownership can be admlinis.
tered with q genuine trusteesllip Oi
the rights of the investor. Of thu
public, and of labor"
Railroad managers wonder IL MIR
Stone was giving them a hint.
The general outline of the rail
road combat today is accordingly
as follows:
No political party-neither the
La Toilette one, nor the Repub-
Ecan one, nor the Democratic one
gives anything but criticism to
the Esch-C ummOns TRANSPORTATION
law and to the present railroad
situation.
The present railroad situation
nevertheless is more serviceable
to the shipper than any previous
railroad situation i'm these times.
On that basis the railroads have
begun to enter into an intimate
alliance with shippers.
1t becomes increasingly a case
OF the railroads plus the shin.
perS OF most commodities against
the Government ownership enthu.
siasts plus the railroad employees.
:. That is the political sum OF
the matter.

QUESTION
Right Of Employe to inspect
Rating is Provided Under
Legislation

Publicity Is to be one Of the main
issues to confront the Personnel
Classification Board in the near
future.
When efficiency ratings become
the chief factor in making promo
lions and changes in grade, it is
recognized that the right Of the in
dividual employee to inspect the
ratings-a right which is given him
under the classification law as
passed-along with the collateral
privilege Of inspecting the compare
tive markings of other employees
is point which seems certain to
create controversy.
There is a strong sentiment on
the personnel board to make the
efficiency ratings subject to reason
able publicity, and in as much as
the board is granted the power tt
draw up regulations under which
the inspection of ratings is to be
managed, it is believed it will vote
against any policy Of secrecy or
star-chamber methods In the admin.
istration Of the system.
For the Federal employees. thi.
will be an advantage Of great
value. 1t will enable him to find
out his exact status under the rat
ing system and to make an eff
fective appeal when he thinks 9
mistake has been made or an in
justice done him.
