New York, Dec. 18.-Small Adven-
lures: Chinatown is very gay at this
season Of the year and the other
night L took some friends down to
the Port Arthur in Mott Street for
dinner. Lichee nuts arc a nice re-
mcmbrance for friends back home, be
cause they arc obtainablc only in a
few cities.
L was surprised to discover that
none OF the Chinese restaurants. even
the larger ones bother with licenses
to served drinks. even wine and beer.
The licenses involve official red tape.
of which the average Chinese prop
rletor has horror and also they cost
more, often than the net profits of a
year.
The streets of Chinatown are full
of beggars, but none of them is Chin
ese and small bows open the doors of
visiting autos, polish windshields and
otherwise perform for small change.
None of these little boys is Chinese.
l talked to a cop on duty and he
told me that the Chinese populace. bv
and large, is respectable and well-bc-
haved. Most of the petty crime in
Chintown can be laid to Americans
Of Irish or South European nativity.
When a Chinaman runs afoul of the
law it is almost always for something
serious: murder, for instance.
The longs, too, are not the sinister
organizations they used to be. Nova
days the typical Tong is no more than
a social and boosters organization
sort of lodge; and the meetings
are mild and respectable as the meet
ing of local Rotary Club.
