Johnson and Jess Willard
Forbidden to Box in New
York By Recent Order

New York, Aug. 11.-Boxers who
are more than SS years of age will
not receive licenses from the state
athletic commission to participate in
glove contests in this state, according
to a rule adopted recently. While it
is claimed this rule is not aimed at
any boxer in particular, it probably
will prevent the granting of licenses
to Jack Johnson and Jess Willard.
Jack Johnson recently said he was
AZ. Willard admitted SS wheni he
fought Dempsey at Toledo, in 1919,
although it generally was thought he
had passed his fortieth birthday.

REPUBLICAN PARTY
in NEXT ELECTION

NDJ uc ASoOCldleQ INGSTO FT0SSJ
Washington, D. c., Aug. 11.-There
is coming to the Associated Negro
Press serious and solicitous inquiries
from all over the United States Of
America. Some are pathetic, some
tragic and others fraught with grave
forbodings. The tenor of the whole
string of inquiries may be summed up
in the following chorus:
"Where Do We Go From Here?'
Quotations from typical letter is
given. The letter quoted is from one
of the most intelligent and progress
sive members of the race a woman
of high social and business standing,
and one entirely independent Of po-
litical preferment, but active in po-
litioal progress. The letter says:
"Just what is wrong with the Pres
ident- If what 1 read in the co'orod
papers is true, the party seems quite
sure they will never again need our
vote. But l guess they think three
years is long time and by the time
election time rolls around again we
will have forgotten all about the
Lily White efforts. Well, we will
see about this"
There you have it, from northern
voter not a politician, but who prob
ohIu oop infIuapoa D,Ora uotao ono
way and another than some United
States senators. This is typical of
the trend of thought. 1t shows many
things. For example, it shows that
the newspapers are publishing the
news as it happens, without fear or
putting Sugar in the coffee just be-
fore the election. VIII not have the
desired effect in these wide awake
times, and finally, it demonstrates
that the colored voters of the north
are in no sense Indifferent to the
slams and fistcuffs of party politics
and policies in the south
Senators, Congressman,
Governors, "Beware!"
Northern senator's, members of
congress and governors in northern
states are urged to Beware the Ides
of march," The elections of 1922 may
prove a bitter disappointment to
some Where are the old fashioned
politicians who claim that colored
people are not looking ahead? They
are not stopping at 1922, many of
them are discussing what will happen
in 1924 and 1926. The times have
changed.
The controversy between King
George of England, Lloyd George and
Lord Northcliffe, are being reproduc-
ed in miniature, or life sized, as you
Ike Z between prs>ilent Hariing,
his seer etary, and the committee who
Wis ied the President recently from
he National Assoc,a.. m for he Ad-
vancement of Colored People
Whatever may be the attitude Of
President Harding, the Republican
national committee, or the group Of
leaders in Washington headed by
Henry Lincoln Johnson, Perry W..
Howard and others, it is very evident
that the sailing is not smooth. 1t is
quite plain that friends of the admin
istration are placed in most embar-
RAISING portion, so far as alibis are
concerened.
Look at the facts straight in the
face-heaven knows it is time. One
has said: Leaders these days can
not be dictators; they must follow the
will of the masses, or lose their pow
er. This applies to leaders of all
races.
where do we go from here?" From
where? Let's see. What has hap
pened of late? Is it straws that show
the manner of the winds blowing, or
brick houses" to make forks take
the "HINT?"

rTF- Now Yofh Evening World
wy HEN the young Chinese girl
w student comes to New York
ev, ryLhing is made very clear
and smooth for her; but how about
the, Chinese wife OF the merchant
down IN Chinatown? How is this
little Or,sntal lady who has Children
to bring up and the care OF a tiny
Street TO learn the ways OF Uncle
sam?
That is question which ha
bothered Miss RhodA Kong a young
Chinese woman graduate Of Wheaton
and Columbia Colleges, tor a long
time. Recently. however. she CON
ceived the idea Of giving her time to
the Advancement Of her native sisters
in New York's Chinatown and she Is
now the Nationality" worker for the
y. W. c. A. branch for Chinese
women.
How many Chinese women are
there down in Chinatown" l asked
Miss Kong in her apartment at No
80 West l22d Street. II have
noticed while journeyinE through
that section OF the city that one very
seldom secs either Chinese women or
children. There are always plenty Of
chinese men about, but surely the
women pust DO very modest"
They are very quiet and very fond
Ok their houses" replied Miss Kong.
At present there are about 60 Chinese
women living in the apartments over
the shops and about 200 children.
One seldom sees the children because
the poor little tots have 10 80 to two
schools. They attend the public
schools until three in the afternoon
and then by three thirty they attend
a Chinese school which lasts until
almost seven in the evening,

rooms in our building 81. No. ~ Mott

Miss Kong Every year or two there
Is a change, as many OF the women
are simply here with their husbands
on business and return to China. A
little dark apartment down in China
town Is not very coy place and
they seem 70 enjoy getting out 10 Tho

and young children derive q great

there. Out OF the S. Chinese women
Al women are members OF the
Mothers Club and attend all our
meetings with great regularity.
"On Monday we have a sewing
class while Wednesdays and Fridays
are devoted TO English. Then ! want
these women 70 have a little social
life. 50 the hrst Saturday in every
month have q purely social gather
ing where the women may meet each
other and hear lectures and talks
given by American women"
Then you are really doing great
deal to AmericaRize your native sis
ters," said.
But Miss Kong was not exactly
pleased with my remark. Her frank,
Intelligent face clouded as she said:

ways, but sometimes wonder II,
