Rigid Ordinance to Regulate Dancing In Public Ballrooms Rigid controls of dance halls in Anaheim are contained in a new ordinance which had its first reading before the city council Tuesday night. The ordinance would set a license fee of $200 for any dance hall established in the city, and the operator would be subjected to close screening, including such questions as: Has the proposed operator ever convicted of a crime? Is there anything in the operator's past which would make them a bad risk as owners of such an establishment? and other questions. Under provisions of the new ordinance, the city council would be required to pass on each individual applicant before the license department could issue the necessary permit. It is the feeling of the council that a rigid control of dances is necessary. One provision states that at no time should the lights in the dance hall be dimmed. This caused Councilman Glenn Fry to ask how the law would be enforced. He asked if council members were planning to go around to dance halls with a light meter to see that lighting was held at the prescribed minimum standard. Final action on the proposed ordinance will come at a future date.

Counting the main office on West Broadway and the Brookhurst Center Station at Ball and Brookhurst, they now have 165 employees and utilize 35 bicycles and 20 motor trucks. The past Christmas season was the most difficult in the office experience because the mail volume far exceeded the anticipated increase over last Christmas. The postmaster planned for about a 30 per cent increase in volume of both incoming and outgoing mails. However, the statistics now show that the outgoing mails increased over 46 per cent and the incoming by 58 per cent. To move this amount of mail was a giant task and required the services of 237 extra employees and 45 trucks in addition to the regular employees and trucks. In one day, cancellations of outgoing letters totalled 213,000 and was over 150,000 on several days. The previous record high was last year when 133,000 letters were cancelled in one day. Despite this increased volume, all mail and parcels were delivered without serious delay. The patrons of Anaheim are to be commended for the fine cooperation that was shown in various ways which was a great factor in helping with this tremendous quantity of mail.
