Heavier Janiro Gets
$4,000 lila Motta
Can Cut 10 155
BY the Assoeioied Press


NEW YORK, june Stony Ja-
MIRO of youngstown. Ohio, moves
out of the welterweight division for
the first time in his fistic career
tonight when he takes on Jake
La Motta, New York middleweight
in a 10-round bout at Madison
Square Garden.
La Motta, himself a capable per-
former at $50 pounds. has agreed to
come in at 155 pounds or less and
|if he fails will hand over $4,000 oil
his hard-earned cash to his oppo-
nent before they ever climb into
the ring.
Regardless of whether the New
Yorker reaches the weight stipulat-
ed in the contract-calling for q
forfeit of $4,000 If he scales more
than 155-the fight will be held.
Janiro decided to Jump into COM
Ipetition in a heavier weight bracket
when he had trouble making lat
FOUNDER for his bout with Beau Jack
last February, which he won in the
fourth round
Tony had to take an unscheduled
workout on the day of that fight in
order to trim himself down to the
required poundage.
La Motta has announced that he
is strong, fast and sharp for to-
nights tussle despite his shedding
of around five pounds.
In fistic circles, however, there are
those who insist that the reducing
schedule La Motta has followed dur
ing the past few weeks is certain to
leave the fighter-whose principal
assets include his stamina-in a
somewhat weakened condition.

The swastika used as a symbol by japanese
Buddhist Churches superseded in the Nazi SYM
Dol by many years 1t also differs from the
German one in that the arms of the cross broke
to the left rather than to the right Both the
Buddhist symbol and the japanese symbol were
adapted from Chinese good luck sign.

Miss Kaufman'5 letter:
Has Audience
With Emperor
Very encouraging news comes
from Japan regarding the unpre-
cedented opportunity for Christian
work.
Miss Tamaki Uemura, an or
dained Presbyterian minister and
the first civilian to be allowed to
leave Japan, recently returned to
Japan after her visit TO the church,
es of the United States. She
writes of the great interest of the
Emperor and Empress in Christ
ianity, and tells of her audience
with them, when she was given
two hours to report on her trip.
Mr.. Tracy Strong, general secre-
tary of the Yorld's Y w. C. A, has
just completed a round-the-w world
trip and he says: IF / had five
years of service to give to any one
country, 1 would give 1t TO Japan"
In a recent letter, Mr. Soichi
Saito of the japanese Y. M. c. A.,
writes: Since the war. every com
munity has been expressing very
high expectations for the role TO
be played by the Y. M. C. A. for
upbuilding and characterization of
Japan. The associations are now
exerting their utmost in reviving
the regular activities along vari-
Gus lines. English teaching is
probably the first to attract a
great number of students, and
Read the Bible Movement has
already helped to organize more
than 70 Bible study groups in Sc
veral cities -"
Need Leaders
A Y. w. C. A. secretary writes:
I'VE need lots Of leaders today and
what we did is bearing fruit with
the old club members ready TO
help others along the democratic
way of education. More than any
other associations. the Y. w. C. A.
can contribute toward the rebuild
ing of the country as it is q
Christian and also an information
al organization"
The Worlds Y. w C. A. is plan
ming to hold its council meeting
which is the legislative body of the
World organization and includes
representatives of all its national
members, in Hangchow, China, IN
October 1927 of this year. This
is the first time the council meet
ing will be held in the Orient. 1t
is a time of great change, which
means a time of tremendous chal-
lenge.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. I'm per-
sonal representation to the Bureau of Internal
Revenue. Mike Masaoka, national legislative
director of the JACL differentiation
Committee, this week asked for the eimina-
ton of income tax filing restrictions on aliens
OF Japaese ancestry who desire to travel to
from Hawaii.
The Ado legislative director urged the
Bureau to re-examne its practice and policies
III this regard because "tO our way of think
ing, there should be no discrimination be-
cause of race national origin in such proce-
dures as these"
Masaoka noted that the Bureau requires all
Japanese nationals desiring to travel between
continental United States and the Territory of
Hawaii to produce income tax returns before
they may depart.
