1t was June when Howard Morris
swung off the extra-fare train and
stood on the platform Of the station

could see. with the exception Of a few
unknown faces was the station with

Against Changing Public Dance

A recommendation of Lieut.. Nina

ems Bureau of the Police Department,
for tightening public dance hall CEN
sorship by having more strict defini-
tion written into the police regula-
tions and giving her the authority to
issue or refuse licenses was opposed
today by Assistant Corporation Coun-
sci Francis III. Stephens in a report to
the Commissioners.
The recommendation was referred
to Mr.. Stephens last week by the
Commissioners. In his reply he said
that the present regulation 'is broad
and sweeping in its terms, and any
attempt to narrow 1t by defining
dance halls or what entertainments
the Commissioners should attempt
to control seems to me to be a decided
step backward"
