Sunday "blue laws." especially insofar they pruhibit public dance?, wil! meet with the passive! abeyance of ths police department j until such time aa the general atM- I f c- W tude of the people demands stritt: enforcement. j This, in substance, conforms to ' views held by members of the board of public safety, who, it was- made known lat evening, have informally uiscussea uie question o; ihuj dances. No action pointing to the closing of public dar.ee halls on Sunday or holidays is expected for the. present, at least, it was said. But from behind locked doors where three members cf the beard consult, adopt measures and determine policies of fire and police prottection, has come forth a vleled warning. Warning Unmistakable. The warning, it was made known, is unmistakable a.s to its meaning. Strict conformity to regulations adopted for the purpose of correct and respectable dancing must bo enforced. Dance hall proprietors are told that failure of patrons to comply wdlh recognized "mod sr." practices on the floors and their leniency in permitting so-called immoral dances and positions of dancers will bring about censure, in the form of closing up orders. "The attitude of the people," declared W. O. Davie, president of the board, "wdll determine what orders will be given the police department '' If complaints against Sundae dancing gather In number, showing it to be the prevailing wishes of the citizenry at larr;e. the police will be ordered to close up dance hallx altotgether, hinted the head of tlie safety board. Certain proprietors, who flout the 1 as.sive attitude of tlie board and show- by the general conduct of their halls that they are ! not conforming :c the generally ac cented proper rule-; for dancing will bring about prompt a.otl.n nair.t themselve-3.
