Ihff dance crazy. The wholo city,
from its foKpy heart to its standar
dized suburb), aboundn with public
dance halls and supposedly private
danco clubs, where anybody with a
clean, shave and evening clothes can
pay the price and become a member
on a moment's notice.
' IlammGrRinlth, which begins where
the fashionable "Wont Hurt ends, is
perhaps tho greatest rendezvous In
the world for dancers who are middle
class but happy. Its "Palais do Dnnco"
has provided room for hundreds of
fox-trottcra nightly for years, and now
a few blocks away at Olympla there
has been opened "the biggest dance
floor in tho world.' It is big enough
to keep 2000 couples off one another's
feet simultaneously. Tho opening
night 5000 people rushed In before U
o'clock and tho doors had to be shut
on IfiOO more men and maids and
matrons who wanted to come in out
of the mist. I
" Just north of the theater district,
where there are many dancing clubs
for those who can ignore the expense
and do not mind having their style
crumped by encroaching tables
adorned with champagne bottles,
there is a dance club with several
thousand members. Kvery night,
Sundays as well ns week-days, it is
crowded. Tea-time Is dancing tlmo in
tho West End for hundreds who have
nothing else to do with their aftor
'ndons, and in many of tho hotels tho
afternoon dancers have hardly left
when tho night crowd begins to ar

are springing up on almost as large a

HAMrtURCl, Jan. Canada, South
America and Russia are tho three
countries toward which prospective
German emigrants are turning their
eyes since the United States quota
became exhausted.
Steamship offices are today besieg
ed by disappointed fiermana who had
planned to go to America. Many of
them had sold their farm utensils,
their household goods and even their
personal effects, to raise money for
tho trip. It Is impossible for thorn to

We can't be worse off than we are
In Germany," Is the universal reply
they make when emigration officials
caution them it Is not wise to Jump
into somo unknown land without
funds and with no friends to look
after them.
Many Germans seem obsessed at the
present time by the idea that they
must lonve the fatherland. This is
especially true of the young men, who
insist they can see no future for them
at home, and It applies particularly
to clerks, teachers, stcnoRiaphers.

"white collar" workers. Such per

characterized by caution, was main

proximate index of the total volume
of business carried on In the district,
wero smaller, when corrected for sea
sonal variation, than in previous
months of 1923 (except September),
but wero larger by more than 7 per
cent than In December, 1122. An
index of debits to individual accounts
prepared by this bank shows tho fol
lowing figures for December of tho
past five years (1919 monthly average
100):
19L'3 1922 1021 1020 1919
1204 112.1 103.2 113.4 10N. 5
These figures are not corrected for
price changes during tho period, but
comparative stability of tho general
price level during the past year makes
such correction unnecessary when
comparing December, 1923. with De
cember, 1922. and correction for price
changes since 1920 would Increase
the Index number for 1923.
Detailed figures of activity in In
dustry nnd trade, now available for
tho full year 1923. confirm previous
estimates of record production nnd
distribution of the chief products of
the district. Of particular signifi
cance are tho figures compiled by the
Fnlted Htates department of agricul
ture showing gains of 20 and 1'3 per
cent, respectively. In the total dollar
