LAPS SAY TANKS
 FOSTER TROUBLE
Say Missionaries in Korea Use Cloak of Christianity in Drive-Tokio Newspaper Gives Space to
 Claims Against U. s.

Tokio, Aug. 10.-Assertions that Americans are fostering disloyalty among the people of Japan and that American missionaries in Korea are using the cloak of Christianity to in- stall anti-Japanese sentiment there" are made in a series of articles ap- bearing daily in the newspaper Koku- min Shimbun. This journal is consid- cred the organ of the military groups, and it's proprietor and editor is Iichiro Tokutomi, one of the leading journal ists of Japan.
 America is declared to be using Japanese educators, thinkers and busi- ness men as tools to spread dangerous thoughts, destroy military discipline in Japanese youths to avoid conscrip- tion in the army"
 The papers says Americans foment labor troubles for the purpose of hindering Japanese industrial devel- opment and reducing her production"
 All Puffed Up.
 America is puffed up since the war, says another article, "and con- siders herself the sole arbiter of the world"
 Plans for a larger United States navy are regarded by the writer of the articles as completely removing Americas false mask of justice and humanity" and exposing her claws of militarism."
 America is seizing every opportu- nity to protest against Japanese ac- tions and influencing China against this country, it is alleged.
 Many of our intelligent men are enamored of America" the Kokumin says, and because of this public opin- ion is not excited even when our na- tional dignity and the rights of our empire of spotless perfection have been insulted.
 The latest articles quote former high official in the Korean govern ment" who names a dozen or more American missionaries who are charg- ed with instigating a Korean revolt against Japan. This article asserts that during the Korean insurrection mobs were influenced and assisted by the Americans.
 Refrain Generally.
 It is said Leo A. Bergholz, former American consul general at Seoul, puOilSnEu HI 1TltrlE WGtSs GiSEuS5Eu the theory that it is the privilege of the peoples to insist upon self deter imitation and declared the Japanese were wrong in refusing to listen to the Koreans. Specific details are not giv- len in the discussion of charges against some missionaries.
 A review of the newspapers of Ja- pan show that influential journals have refrained from attacks on Ameri- ca. They hold the opinion that the Japanese occupation of Russian terri- tory is not wise as it is likely to create complications with the powers. The people of Japan are eager read CTS of the newspapers, which have ad- mittedly grown in influence in recent years. Some Japanese go so far as to declare the newspapers are more re- presentative of the opinion of the en- pire than the Japanese diet.

ALLIES AGREE ON RUSSIAN BLOCKADE
Conference Reaches Decision in Effort to Protect Poles-No Troops, Economic Measures Only to
 Be Used.

Hythe, England, Aug. 9.-The allied conference here reached a complete agreement today on plans dealing with the Russo Polish crisis. They include the reimposition of the block ade and giving support to Poland thru technical advice but 10 allied troops will be employed.
 In the British and French circles it is declared that the intention of the bolshevih regarding Poland are be- coming clearer every hour. The pre- vailing impression among British and French officials is that the soviet gov ernment hopes through the Polish of fensive firmly to establish bolshevism at the doors of the western powers.
 Continue Conference.
 Continuation of the conference this afternoon is said to have been neces- sitated through the failure of the two premiers to agree. Premier Millerand is urging the French policy, which in eludes the blockade and defensive measures already indicated. It is stated that Premier Lloyd-George, all though not opposed to blockade, is reluctant to sever definitely all nego- tiations with Russia and it is believed the soviet emissaries will be allowed to remain in London for the present.
 The French delegation plans to leave for France at 6 o'clock this evening and Premier Lloyd-George an hour later for London where it is stated he will hold conference with the cabinet.
 Hythe, ngland, Aug. Slow to save western Europe from bolshe- vism was the burden of the discussion at this mornings conference here be- tween Premiers Lloyd-George and Mil lerand, and although the final de- cision was still pending this afternoon the chief weapons will probably be a blockade and the establishment of a defensive line in Poland.
 It is stated that the allies, although loath to admit 1t, now feel there is little hope of saving Warsaw and that Poland is no longer the sole issue. The main problem confronting the premiers is the defense of western Europe.

WILLARD SIGNS TO
FIGHT DEMPSEY
Kansas Giant and Titleholder
TO Meet in Garden on
March IL.

At the recent six day bicycle race in
the Twenty second Regiment Armory it
was given out that Jack Dempsey and
Jess Willard would meet in the ring at
Madison Square Garden before the sum-
mer of 1921, but few of the followers of
the art of self-defence gave second
thought to the report. Willard had been
so quickly and so thoroughly beaten
when he lost the championship to Demp-
sey at Toledo on July 4, 1919. that ring
followers though he would be crazy to
face the champion second time. But
Willard, it appears. thinks different or
is in need of little cash, and has in
duced Tex Rickard TO sign him up for
another bout with his conqueror.
The bout is set for the evening Of
March list. Patricl's Day-and this
time Dempsey will draw down the Hons
share of the purse. In the Toledo bout
he received s27,500. while Willard was
presented with 100000. Willard Is re-
ported to be training on his farm in
Kansas. but It will take lot OF hard
work to get the Giant In shape TO go
fifteen rounds with any heavyweight
much less champion. such as Dempsey.

BIG Sporting Organization
Does Not Believe Governor
Elect Will Kill Game.

While there are many rumors float
ing about purpOrting TO interpret Cow
elect Miller's attitude on boxing and
his probable action looking toward the
repeal of the Walker boxing law, there
is one organization which does not be-
lieve Judge Miller viii be influenced by
reformers who might attempt TO sway
him into taking action that would re-
suit in the killing of boxing in New
York State That organization is the
international Sporting Cub. When
asked for his views on the subject yes
terday. William a. Gavin, managing
director Of the ]. S. c. and chairman
of the Army. Navy and Civilian Board
of Boxing Control. said:
when the International Sporting
Club and the Army. Navy and Civilian
Board of Boxing Control launched its
campaign two years ago for the revival
of boxing in this State. they were Sc
verely handicapped at the time by the
black record of boxing in the past. But
by obtaining the support of a number
of prominent and distinguished citizens
they were able TO lift boxing at q
bound 10 a plane which IL had never
previously enjoyed. Their most serious
obstacle was the opposition of a band
of bigoted and intolerant reformers,
re splendidly organized 1t was es-
timated at the time that between 100
and 200 of these fanatical reformers
were openly hostile TO boxing being le-
galized in any form whatsoever.
THE International Sporting Club,
nothing daunted carried the war into
tie enemy'ss camp and succeeded i'm en-
tirely overwhelming the opponents OF the
bill by obtaining the active support OF
nearly 1000 clergymen.
Altogether undue Importance may
be attached to the rumors which are
being circulated to the effect that the
reason that this bill was passed into
law by Republican majority in both
the Senate and the Assembly, and at
time when boxing was In disrepute.
ut should be very difficult now TO
abrogate this law when it has proved
It's worth under the guidance and con-
troll of honest and competent admins
traitors such as the present Boxing Com
mission and License Committee have
proved themselves to be. The Interna-
tional sporting Club Is not so deeply
concerned With the retention OF the law
upon the soa tute book OF enterprises
which have commercial profit as their
sole end and aim. Whatever happens
to the bill under the new regime the
Gnternationap Sporting Club will not be
prevented from filling its aims and OBJ
jects, az the law will revert to the old
condition, which permits boxing In bona
f,de clubs where admission is not
charged nc the doors. 1t is. however
realized tsat the attack upon boxing
which is IRmaslIing its guns is not an
attack upon boxing only but the liberty
OK the subject, and the club is marshal
ling all its forces 10 fight as vigorously
for the maintenance Of the law as il did
10 establi sh it. One Of the first steps
that is being taken is TO demonstrate 10
the Governor-elect by signed petitions
the vast humber Of friends of boxing
that exist throughout the State of New
York"

Seven Thousand Boxing Fans
Watch Eight Titles Change
Hands in the Garden.

| Spick and span. a new batch of local
amateur champions came into the lime
light at Madison Square Garden last
! nigkt as the results OF the Metropolitan
! Association Amateur Athletic Union
/ boxing tournament. OF the eight classes
on the card not single winner of a
l year ago turned UP to defend his title.
/ The nearest approach to a former holder
was Benjamin Ponteau of the ST. Chris
| topher Club, who was a runner-up in the
/ national tournament at Boston last year
When the first bout was put on crowd
Of 1000 persons looked on. and this was
the biggest gathering ever seen at an
amateur tournament
In the first semi-final bout OF the 1856
pound class Ponteau easily outpointed
Louis Aldrin of the Norwegian Turn
Society," and the final appeared TO be
at the mercy of the colored scrapFer.
The first knockout of the night came
with the opening bout of the 125 pound
class, when Joe Labati of the People s
Institute met Dan Lyons of the Paulist
A. c. Tt was a give and take sort OF
bout, with Labati doing the best jabbing
while Lyons defended in short arm
swings After 1 minute and "a seconds
had been exhausted in the second round
Lahati sent Lyons down with a straight
left on the jaw.
The second semi-final in this class
was a lively affair, J. Melito OF the Paul
ist A. G. disposing Of Leroy Powell, the
much faneied boxer from the St Chris
TOPPER Club.
The semi-fnals of the 15s pound class
produced some real fighting between
Nick Florio and NJ. r. Morgan. both
members OF the Paulist A. G. After some
hard sh gging F,orio won with Knock
IL. L AZ,
of the Ozanam and Charles j. Murphy
OF the St. Bartholomew A. C. faced each
other in the second bout, and they cub
each other until the claret flowed. They
stood up toe to toe and banged away ior
the three rounds The Judges gave the
bout to + anagan.
Dan Shannon of the Bronxdale a. Z,
a straight iabber, had the easiest sort
of a time in winning the final or the
IT'S pound class from William Ram
bacher of the National Turn Verein.
The Bronxdale man drove his opponent
all over the ring like punching bag
The referee stopped the bout AFTER
minutes 20 seconds of boxing.
The final of the 1853 pound class went
to Nick Florio of the Paulist A. c. by
default from John J. Flanagan of the
Ozanam Association. Flanagan's ear
was split in his encounter with Murphy
in the semi-final so that Dr. Leblanc re-
fused to alldw him to enter the ring.
The final of the 10S pound class be-
tween William Council, Paulist A. c..
and ]. Melito Of the same club was very
close. An extra round was ordered, in
which O'Connell won, as he did the best
work.
The crowd was surely disappointed
when it was announced mat Gordon
Munce of the Pastime a. c. had won in
tie heavyweight final bout and cham
pionshp by default. 1t was stated that
Charles Caro- of the st. Bartholomew
A. c., who had qualified to meet Munce
