SENATOR SMITH
FLAVSJEPEAL
Washington. June 9 Senator Smith
of Michigan, resumed his speech In
opposition to the Panama canal tolls
repeal bill today and criticised Sena
tor Root for favoring repeal of toll
exemption and declared the senator
helped prepare the first Hay-Paunct-forte
treaty, which was put to Its
death by overwhelming American In
dignation "I wish the senator from New York
were here so that I might ask him
if he approved of its death.' Senatof
Smith declared.
At that Instance Senator Root en
tered the chamber and Senator Smith
repeated his remark.
"I did approve of its death because
it did not afford the United States
an opportunity for military protection
of the canal," said Senator Root
Senator Root added that, while he
was a member of the cabinet at the
time the treaty was submitted to the
senate, he -had no knowledge of the
treaty until It was sent to the sen
ate.
Senator Smith insisted that the tolls
repeal was urged by President Wil
son to make an ally out of England
in the Mexican situation.
' If the United States would only
gie the A B C. mediators a free
hand the occasion for the passage
of the bill would be removed," said
the senator.

dancing masters' convention in ses
sion in this city Before 300 dance
Instructors from many parts of the
world. Professor D G. MacLennan of
Edinburgh, Scotland, demonstrated
the newer dances as they will be
executed next season.
Among the newer dances, the Pa
rlsian version of the tango and the
maxixe, the la furlana. suggested by
Pope Pins X. as a substitute for the
tango and tatao a Chinese dance, are
the most popular with the delegates
The effect of the convention on the
dance steps the coming season will
be marked, according to Louis Kret
lew, Chicago, president of the asso
ciation, and the tendency will be to
wards the older and more dignified
dances.
"As a reaction from the recent
'twisty' dances society feels the need
of more esthetic steps," Professor
MacLennan said "and this need can
be best met by the contra dances so
that dances for couples will give way
in a large measure to dances for
groups."
