SPREAD IN MILK PRICE STUDIED BY CIVIC CLUBS

The Indianapolis Federation of Civic Clubs is studying the “huge price spread between what the producer gets for his milk and what the consumer pays,” Paul C.

Square Feet Banned; Chief Warns Matrons.
A Safety Board ban on the issuance of dance permits to taverns with dance floors of less than 400 square feet became effective today. Police Chief Michael F. Morrissey said he would refuse to issue a permit to any tavern which does not meet the dancing space requirement set ‘by the Safety Board yesterday. The Board's ruling applies to temporary permits immediately and to annual and semi-annual permits after Dec. 31. The Board's move, designed fo curb dancing and resulting liquor sales in smaller cafes, was made after City, County and State authorities launched a drive to curb alleged tavern liquor law violations. The ruling was adopted on a motion by Frank B. Ross, Democrat, who asserted the restriction would affect about three-fourths of the taverns which now have dancing. The ruling was aimed at alleged liquor law violations in certain taverns where liquor sales are encouraged by music and dancing, according to Board members. The Board also ruled that no annual or semi-annual dancing permits will be issued to any tavern, restaurant or hotel unless dancing is conducted six nights a week. The ruling also was adopted on motion by Mr. Ross. He said it would help eliminate abuses of dance privileges by places which take out yearly dancing permits and ‘do not have regularly scheduled dances.
Matrons Are Warned
his men have been instructed to enforce provisions of the City Dance Hall Ordinance which provides dancing shall be restricted to the hours between 8 p. m. and 1 a. m. The Chief also said he would place dance matrons, appointed by the Police Department to supervise all licensed dance halls, under close surveillance, He said he had been informed that certain matrons had been negligent.
tributed to each matron, the Chief warned that matrons. who neglect their duties will be discharged immediately. Complaints have been received that some matrons were sitting down while on duty and some were drinking alcoholic beverages, the Chief said.
Complaints Are Cited
There have been several instances, he said, where matrons have “invited sweethearts, relatives, friends and husbands to fill the places to which they (matrons) have been assigned.” Safety. Board members have contended that excessive drinking in taverns is stimulated by music and dancing. The tightening of dance restrictions, would, the Board believes, make it impossible for small, congested taverns to hold dances.

“our greatest collective social sin and a denial of the ideals of Christ” was expected to be passed today by Methodist ministers and laymen at the concluding session of a two-day peace conference here. “We must do more than oppose armed violence,” Dr. Charles F. Boss Jr., Methodist World Peace Commission executive secretary, told 75 Hoosier “The church must act definitely for peace in the following ways: “1. Enlistment of youth in work camps to aid the underprivileged. “2. Establishment of youth peace services such as deputation teams. “3. Relief and reconciliation work in war areas. ‘4, Support of Methodist conscientious objectors. “5. Education of the laity in the Church's position in war time.” Dr. Boss said that the United States should stay out of the war, in accordance with Christian ideals, but without “prudish isolation.” The conference was also expected to approve the duty of the church
