After 1918 the Church among other current topics also addressed the issue of the so called modern dances which arrived mainly from the United States of North America. The Primate of Poland, Cardinal Edmund Dalbor, archbishop of Gniezno and Poznań saw in them the danger of moral corruption. He expressed his great concern in pastoral letters, circulars and exchange of correspondence. Cardinal Dalbor was not against dances as such, but could not approve of those which broke the abiding customs and rules for fasting.
