Di rector of Public Welfare, by the Mnver. Mr. Baxter, who is chief of the Bu reau of City Property, was recently taxed by the Rev. H.

But I will continue te serve en the committee and I will co ce co eperatc with Mr. Warburton." Mr. Warburton will make a study of the problem nt once.

"As the result of what we have done every dance hall manager has three or four supervisors en the fleer aeelng that the rules nre enforced. They are co-operating with us." A letter has been drafted bv the committee nnd fcent te every dance hull munagcr.
