Wells, county clerk of Contra Costa county, to whom the resolution was mailed, said today that the women are acting under a misunderstanding as to the Lrue facts of the case.

"There is no ordinance prohibiting dances after 1 o'clock in the morning," Wells said. "Any person who conducts a well-managed dance hall is permitted to have dancing after 1 o'clock; in fact, until 3 o'clock if the per- mission of the board of supervisors is-obtained. Otherwise the dances may be held until 1 o'clock. There is nothing in the ordinance about suppers or 12 o'clock closinp." No particular dance hall was named in the discussion before the women's meeting, it was learned today, nor would the club officials reveal the source of the reports or the mothers who complained con- cerning their children's attendance at the dances.
