Stiddy Old Boston Dance Halls Spark Outcry
In Boston on Feb 1 the Howton fight against dance halls grows as The Traveler and clergy denounce venues labeled as dens of assignation. A vivid description portrays a bare room with a bench, a small bar, a raised platform for orchestral music, and beer with low alcohol. Patrons pay 20 cents for a dance, then drink and mingle, with outsiders and “boarders” mixing, officials allowing late hours while licenses lapse. Police inaction and rising open solicitation by women and unlicensed sellers fuel calls for enforcement.
