NO DANCING IN HOTELS
"It is extraordinary to us to find that dancing is prohibited by law in licensed hotels in New Zealand," said an overseas tourist at New Plymouth. "1 understand it is quite in order at private hotels, as we danced at ono in Rotorua, but in tho case of a licensed house it is different." He was of the opinion that if this stato of affairs could be rectified it would add greatly to the attractions of New Zealand for overseas visitors. He said they usually arrived at the hotels just before dinner at night, and after dinner they had to sit in the lounges and either go to bod or to a picture theatre.
