The Negro World

FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: As President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, I am directed to issue this final invitation to all divisions, branches and chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and to all churches, fraternal organizations, institutions, newspapers and clubs of the Negro race to attend the second International Convention of Negroes, to be held in New York City, N. Y., U. S. A., from the 1st to the 31st of August of the present year. Each organization will send a delegate to represent its interest in this convention. The convention is being held for the purpose of legislating for the future government of the Negro race of the world. Delegates will come from the 48 States of the American Union, from all the islands of the West Indies and all the countries of South and Central America and of Africa. Delegates must be in New York not later than Sunday, the 31st of July, so as to be at hand to join in the divine services to be held for the opening of the convention at 9:30 on the morning of the 1st of August, which will be held in Liberty Hall, 120-148 West 139th It is expected that 50,000 delegates will march in the parade. Bring your banners representing your organization or your club or your fraternity. Have your Red; Black and Green rosettes or buttons, so that there can be uniformity in the line of parade. At 8 P. M. the convention will assemble for its official public opening at the 12th Regiment Armory at 62d street and Columbus avenue. Admittance to this public opening will be by ticket, which can be secured from the office of the New York Local of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at 56 West 135th street, New York City. This convention will eclipse anything in the history of conventions. Negroes from every part of the world are already flocking into New York. Important legislation will be gone through for the 31 days and 31 nights of the sitting of the convention. The program for the development and emancipation of Africa will be discussed. The problem of the Civil Service of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will be discussed, as also important offices will be filled for the ensuing year.

Now, you Know that no general is going to give away his plans, and we never told anybody we are going to fight, sny- bow. We only say tbat if you remain there until we get there, what happens Eeaceceaces Tat we say. If you want to interpret that as dgbting, that ts your business. Now Mrten, some people try to misrepresent tus by saying that we are golag to lo- cate ourselves at a certain place in ‘Africa and start fighting from there T want to disavow any knowledge of any partioular place where we are going to start from, because anywhere T and I am going to start to fight ight there. (Cheers and Laugher.) We teal that the time bas come for universal ection. I really would Uke to have tho world understand the Ne- sro 20 that there can be no blame fiven to the Negro tor hiding his at- Utada, for suppressing bis intention, for atultitying his desires The old leadership represented us as © race ef beggara. The olf leadership repre- sented us as wanting only an indus- trial schoo! and a few churches; the old leaderahip said wa were satiated 39 shout, “iv" mo Jeruz and take the world.” (Laughter) The old leader- 2p represented us as wanting to have no band in politics, but that we were sathified to cast our volo for ‘Tom, Dick and of. any other foe witheat try to cxchiey ft ts ovr own behait. ‘That is a mlsrepre- ‘suntation of the new Negro, and if ey of the old leaders make any euch representations they are misinterpret- ing the spirit of the new Negro. That isa warning to civilization; that Is s-notice to the, world. We uo longer are aatixod with industrial schools and churches only; we are no longer entinfed to have the vote and not to exeruize it in cur own bebalt. The ‘ote represents political Uberty and tho new Negro Geaizes to give his bal- tot for an alderman of his reco, for « congressman of bie race for « sana- tor of his race, and for president of his raoa (Loud Oheera) He says if you will not give mo an opportun- ty because you outnumber me by mob vielence—if you will not give me an opportunity to cast my vote for my own alderman, congressman, een- ator or president in one part of the ‘world, T will make 1t possible to cast it tn another part of the world. (Cheers) The new Negro says, not only churches, not only industrial sohools, but we want parliament houses, hotses of Congress, national museums, national art galleries, great Institutions of learning of our own. ‘The old Negro representing the Ne- FO an being oatisiied to be @ subject without rights, is « misrepresentation ‘The new Negro demands a leadership Which wil establish his right to role TE {tte right tor the yellow man to Fula, It a aleo right for the black man to rule. (Chows.) We say rule on. great white roan; rule on. great yal- low man, and we are now saying rule on, great 400,000,000 black men. Création opened with many distinct races; I cannot enumerate them, but creation will also close with those many distinet races, and when the end Gomes and other races answer bere, Tam quite sure the Negro will be amotg those who will answer “here” ‘They may exterminate the North American Indian; thay may extern! nate the aborigines of Aiustealla} thay may pxterminate the aborigines of the various county they have conruerod, but there is toe race that they alall Gute, the Negro abe, (Ghewtad ik the Negro wwotls lke to ste the race tat eouid tse audaciots as to make the at- Wage eterintsdtn the.

Just a few year ago the property of the world was in danger, end they would bave lost every penny they over bad were it not for the fact that 2,000,000 black men went to France and Flanders end Grove the Teutons out of France and Belgium when white man falled to do it.

On Monday, the et of Auguat, the biggest convention of races will assemble to New York with $0,000 delegates repre- senting the Negro peoples of the world, who will assemble here to ait for #1 days and 31 nighta to dlscuse the problems that confrogt this race of ours. We are coming to create new legislation for the government of 400,- 000,000 Negroes, and alryady some of the delegates are here, and they are coming from all quartera By next Saturday we will have between 20,000 and £0,000 thousand delegatas bere in New York.

It takes mere than « few obitecles to discourage the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities Leas. (Ap- plause) And 00, my friends, 1 am asking that you use your very best efforte next week to greet cur convention on the lat of August. ‘The world is watch- Ing you, not only the Negro warid, but the Angio-Gaxon world, the Asiatic world; they are watching you keenly to tee what you are going to do; to ete it you will bave @ better conven- toy this year than you had last year. Bo Yet us not tail: tet us work day and night for the great success of our coming convention. Let us feel that wo are about God's business ax wall as about the business of the Negro peo- ples of the world (Applause) And when we feel that, when we become thoroughly enthusiastic for this great work, we will not rest, we will not stop, until we have realized the goal that we are looking for; and that goat ts the repatriation of the Negro It means that the Negro ehall zo to his own land; th * he ahail take tp the work of Bis om. nation: that he will no longer submit to lagialation by the white man, but will begin to legislate for himself (Applause) And let us in the year that te Defore us work harder than we bave ever worked be- fore, with the Getarmination that 1921 and’ 1923 gall find us farther on the roed to the foundation of our nation and to our country, We have @ great work to Go; = work that has been said to be tmpoo- sible for the Negro to do. But they fudged us by the standards of the old Negro and not by the atandards of the new Negro. "ve have all taken on the spirit of Marrus Garvey. That spirit thrills us, and fills us and makes us willing to sacrifice, willing to work harder, willing to oontend for every inch of ground that 1s oure by right of inheritance, (Applause) Willing to contend for every right that the Negro should enjoy: willing to avenge if need be the wrongs of our race, the wrongs that come up upon the hori- ron. As I apeak to you tonight, I think of the great mob et Tulsa, Oxia, I think of the peonage and esrtéom that our people are suffering in many parts of the Southland of the United States of Americas I think of the segregation, of the jim crowiem: T think of all the horrible things that the Negro has bad to suffer; ang 1 feel, ne you feel what these things must pase away. (Applause) They must pass away forever. They shail no longer blucken the pages of hiss tory, because the Negro is rising up in hia might, ta taking bis own fate im hie hands, and he means never to stop, never to rest, until be has Griven every allen out of Africa and taleh up the whole continent of Affice for himealt.

Hen. Maraw Carvaux Speech on Leadership Right Hon. Members of the Executive Council, Members and Friends of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, with you tonight. I desire to speak for, short while from the subject of "Leadership," that is as far as that leadership relates to the great movement known as the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and as that leadership affects the Negro race at large. You will realize as a serious group of people that you are living in a serious age in a serious world—a world without sympathy—a world without charity, a world without love; a saint, heartless world. This world in which we live is divided up into national groups. It is also divided up into great human groups. Each and every one of these national groups, and each and every one of these many race groups, is fighting for its own interests; fighting for those things that are dear to it. This conflict of groups and conflict of nations has called for the best in each group and for the best in each nation. If you were to take a survey of humanity—if you were to take a survey of the world politically, you will find every little group of humanity striking out in its own behalf. You will find every little national group striking out in its own behalf, whether it be in England, France, Italy, the United States of America, or in Japan. Each and every one is striking out for its own protection. Let it be Jew, let it be Chinese, let it be Tibetan, let it be Chinese, striking out in its own interest. Under the principle of self-interest, under the principle of national interest the Universal Negro Improvement Association stries out, in behalf of the Negro the world over with an interest that is clear to each and every one. It has a national hua that is dear to each and every one of us. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 30, 1921 LEADERSHIP OF RACE IN THE PAST, DESTRUCTIVE, NOT CONSTRUCTIVE NEW NEGRO NOT A BEGGAR, AND DOES NOT WANT CHARITY — WANTS ONLY WHAT BELONGS TO HIM—DETERMINED THAT SEGREGATION, JIM-CROWISM, LYNCHING, ETC., SHALL CEASE FOREVER, SAY SPEAKERS IN LIBERTY HALL. LABORATE PREPARATIONS BEING MADE FOR 2d ANNUAL CONVENTION BIG STREET PAGEANT OF U, N. L. A. TO BE HELD MONDAY AFTERNOON, AUG. 1st—CELEBRATION OF OPENING OF CONVENTION IN THE EVENING, AT 12th REGIMENT ARMORY, 62d STREET—ADMISSION BY TICKET ONLY—50,000 DELEGATES EXPECTED FROM ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD die in the future. For these things 400,000,000 Negroes the world over are preparing to fight and if needs be die (Chess). I pledge you this to be the sentiment of the Negroes of the West Indies and Central America, as I have seen that sentiment expressed in words, in deeds and action during my five months sojourn in these foreign parts. The Negroes in Central America, the Negroes in the West Indies have absolutely no compromise to make on the question of liberty, freedom and democracy for the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world; and I take it also to be the desire and the sentiment of 15,000,000 Negroes in these United States of America. The world has reached the turning point of humanity. The world has reached the crossroads of humanity, when each race will travel in its own direction, when each national group will travel in its own avenue. Let the Anglo-Saxon go the way he desires to go. Let the Frenchman go the way he desires; let the German go the way he desires to go; we are now organising the 400,000,000 Negroes so that they can go the way they desire to go. (Cheers.) Now, we cannot travel that way without leadership. Where is the leadership? I call upon DuBois, who for years represented himself as a leader, and I ask him. "In what direction are you traveling?" and his answer is, "Whereover the white man bids me go there shall I travel" (Laughter). I call upon Simon and ask him, "What leader thou art?" He leader thou art, and I will follow. I call upon Keller Miller and ask him, "Whither leader thou art?" He leader thou art, and I will follow. And I come back to the 400,000,000 Negroes of the east and I ask, "Are you prepared to be led that way?" and a universal answer comes to me: "No! We shall not be led to that direction." And by that answer I realize that you demand a new leadership—a leadership that will not fail, a leadership that will not give up when the hour seems dark; a leader that will start and continue the journey until victory perches upon the balm of the Red, the Black and the Green. (Cheers.) A leadership that counts not for a dark hour is a leadership misplaced, because in all leadership that leads to liberty, freedom and always be a dark hour, there has always been won just at the turning point of the dark. There is always a silver lining, and the leader who thinks that the dark hour will not come in the struggle of the Negro is a leader who is indisplaced. We have seen experiences and trials in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but our dark hour is not yet come. The dark hour is the hour when you apparently seem to be losing out, yet you have courage enough to fight on until victory comes your way. That is the dark hour which each and every one of you must prepare for. That dark hour may be tomorrow; that dark hour may be five or ten years or twenty years from now; but I want you to realize that you must prepare for the dark hour. It may meet you in the West Indies; it may meet you in the battlefields of Africa; but when you must you will need I. ready. (Cheers.) And you would not be true and loyal members of N. I. A. If you did not count for a dark hour. The dark hour may never come; but it is best to prepare for that hour as you march on from one success to the other, because the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association reveals one continuous line of successes—one triumph after another. How many fights and battles have we won? Immensible battles and fights we have won and there are other battles still to be encountered—other fights still to be won. Let us prepare for that. If I can interpret correctly the spirit of Negroes, it is for me to say that Negroes everywhere, are determined, for its free, determined, to be liberated; liberated, from lynch law, liberated from sachrute law, liberated from segregation, liberated from Jim Crow laws, liberated from apartheid, that is the spirit of Negroes. I am proud of any and all wartime sacrifices. Harper here, has been a native of wartime. It is a unique and it is a universal program that begins to liberate Negroes everywhere. It is with the world known and understood that these men are determined to liberate the world and determined to liberate the world. man. Let the world understand that 400,000,000-Megres are determined to die for liberty. If we must die we shall die nibbly. We shall die gallantly fighting on the battle heights of Africa to plant the standard that represents liberty. (Cheers.) Some people seem to misunderstand us in this African question. They desire us to locate the part of Africa we intend to fight. (Laughter.) Now, you know that no general is going to give away his plans and we never told anybody we are going to fight, anyhow. We only say that if you remain there until we get there, what happens to you is not our fault. That is all we say. We want to interpret that as fighting, that is your business. Now listen, some people try to mirepresent us by saying that we are going to locate ourselves at a certain place in Africa and start fighting from there. I want to disavow any knowledge of any particular place where we are going to start from, because anywhere I land I am going to start to fight right there. (Cheers and Laughter.) dents know that the world is more preparing for war today than ever before. And all students of political history and political science know that at any moment humanity will face its common battleground. The world of political scientists know that the conflict may originate in Asia as well as it may originate in Europe; but to be originated we know it will, and all races and all peoples are preparing for it. The old leadership of the Negro prepared for nothing. We foresee the conflict of race, and we know that no conflict in the future or at the present can be successfully decided except the Negro, whose his mean politically this time by going to the ballot box, but cast his vote on the battlefield. No conflict can be successfully decided until the Negro has put his hand in it. And I am warning the races and nations of the world not to forget and not to ignore the Negro. What's Wrong With Garvey, Heaven, And Africa? See the answer in the Challenge Magazine for July "IT FEARS ONLY GOD" All Newsstands At this time some of the white people say "You Negroes are getting too important and, because of that, we are going to turn you out of your jobs and give them to white folks." They don't know that they are doing a dangerous thing. Do you know what government means? Government means the protection of human rights. Government means the protection of the property of the people who make up the nation. Do you know why they keep soldiers and battleships? Not for ornaments, but to protect the property. Just a few years ago the property of the world was in danger, the United States had to protect the ever they had were it not for the fact that $2,000,000 black men went to France and Flanders and drove the Teutons out of France and Belgium whom white men failed to do it. (Cheera.) Do you know that were it not for the $2,000,000 Negroes who fought in the war the white men who fought on the side of the Allies would have lost everything they had; they would have had to pay over to Germany a huge war indemnity? Do you know that $2,000,000 black men left their business in Africa, in the West Indies and America and went over to France and Flanders and Mesopotamia and fought and saved the Allied nations? Let me tell you this: If you are employed by white men and they choose to dismiss you because of color tell him, "Brother, you remember the last war, all right, another one may be not begging for a trump card. You are not begging for a trump card. You because you made it possible for them to live in peace (Cheera), otherwise the Germans would have been at their door. You have a fair exchange for the money that is given to you. Let them know this: that your future service depends upon their present good treatment. Now I must close for tonight. On Monday, the 1st of August, the biggest convention of race will assemble in New York with 50,000 delegates representing the Negro peoples of the world, who will assemble here to sit for 5 days and 8 nights to discuss the problems that confront this race of ours. We are coming to create new legislation for the government of 400,000,000 Negroes, and already some of the delegates are here, and they are coming from all quarters. By next Saturday we will have between 30,000 and 50,000 thousand delegates here in New York. Monday week at 8:30 we will assemble in this hall for a religious service to open the convention. At one o'clock we will $40,000 of us—the great parade and march through the historic of Harlem. At 8 o'clock the same night we assemble at the 12th Regiment Armory 62d street and Columbus avenue, where we will officially celebrate the opening of the second International Convention of Negroes. It will be declared open by His Highness, the Potentate, Hon. Gabriel Johnson, Mayor of Monrovia, Liberia. I trust all of you will do your best to scatter the information to advertise the convention so as to make a success of it. Miss Henrietta Vinton Davin, International Organizer, as the first speaker of the evening, delivered the following address. Your Excellency, Provisional President of Africa, Members of the Executive Council, Officers and Members of the New York Local, and Friends; I had it good to be here; to be able to look at liberty Hall turn out as usual on the Sunday night meetings; and that you still have the enthusiasm for this great work that has always marked you. We are on the eve of another great convention that shall mark another milestone in the Negro's progress. All roads are now leading to Liberty Hall. They are coming from the highways; they are coming from the paths of the forest; they are coming from over the highways; they are bound for Liberty Hall, all bound for the convention of Negroes, for all Negroes, for the branch of the Negro family, not for any particular location where Negroes dwell, but representatives from the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world, to sit in great national convention to discuss the things that are vital to the Negro's future. And so I find that Liberty Hall, the people of the New York Division, the African Legion, the Cross Nurses, are all eager to welcome the delegates that are coming to us by the 1st of August (Applause). That we have had to contend with opposite forces we all know. It is inexplicable to me why some Negroes try to stop the progress of other grievors. It must be that they were just born contrary; I cannot account for it in any other way, but it is true. When I look over the past year from August, 1820, to August, 1821, and see the great things that we have accomplished, we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, I say that they are marvellous. You have good reason you yourself on the work you have done, and you only an earnest of the work that you friend to do in future. Obstacles only make you grow stronger; because, after you surmounted them, you are ready for whatever in future may come. So we say, "Let them come. We fear not, because our hope is fixed on the redemption of Africa, and we have made up our minds, with the help of God, to let nothing deter us in the accomplishment of that great hope." It is not only hope for the Negroes living in the present generation, but it will be the realization of hope for all generations of Negroes who come after us. We, the pioneers expect and have to do the rough work; we expect to make sacrifices. We know that when alienated from the man, but the sacrifices only make us the hopeful. We may feel a bit disheartened sometimes, but we are never discouraged. It takes more than a few obstacles to discourage the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League. (Applause.) And so my friends, I am asking that you use your very best efforts next week to greet our convention on the list of August. The world is watching you, not only the Negro world, but the Anglo-Saxon world, the Asiatic world; they are watching you keenly to see what you are going to do; to see if you will have a better convention this year than you had last year. So let it not fall; let us work day and night to see what we are going to convention. Let us feel that we are about God's business as well as about the business of the Negro peoples of the world. (Applause). And when we feel that, when we become thoroughly enthusiastic for this great work, we will not rest, we will not stop, until we have realized the goal that we are looking for and that goal is the repatriation of the Negro. It means that the Negro shall go to his own land; that he shall take up the work of his own nation; that he will no longer submit to legislation by the white man, but will begin to legislate for the Negro (Applause) and learn in the year that is before us work harder than we have ever worked before, with the determination that 1921 and 1922 shall find us further on the road to the foundation of our nation and to our country. We have a great work to do; a work that has been said to be impossible for the Negro to do. But they judged us by the standards of the old Negro and not by the standards of the new Negro. We have all taken on the spirit of Marcus Garvey. That spirit thrills us, and dills us, and makes us willing to sacrifice, willing to work harder, willing to contend for every inch of ground that is ours by Wright. We are willing to contend for every right that the Negro should enjoy; willing to avenge if need be the wrong of our race, the wrongs that come up upon the horizon. As I speak to you tonight, I think of the great mob at Tulsa, Oklahoma. I think of the peonage and serfdom that our people are suffering in many parts of the Southland of the United States of America; I think of the segregation, of the Jim crowism; I think of the horrible things that the Negro has had to suffer; and I feel, as you feel, that these things must pass away (Applause). They must pass away (Applause). They must longer blacken the pages of history, because the Negro is rising up in his might, is taking his own fate in his hands, and he means never to stop, never to rest, until he has driven every alien out of Africa and taken up the whole continent of Africa for himself. (Great applause.) I send this note to say On this given month and day, To us a tiny stranger came, And just beneath I'll sign his name. MASTER OBORNE MALLOON Son of Mr. and Mrs. Maloon, Youngest U.

FEDERAL ADDING MACHINE CORPORATION 251 Fourth Avenue, New York City 10070 MASSACHUSETTS 100 In line with previous announcements made, two special meetings were held at Liberty Hall on Tuesday and Wednesday evening, July 19 and 20, immediately following the great welcome and reception tendered on Monday evening, July 19, to the Hon. Marcus Garvey, provisional president of Africa and President of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The purpose of the dart meeting was to give His Excellency and Miss Hedrietta Vinton Davia, international organizer, an opportunity of relating their experiences on their recent trip to Cuba, Jamaica, and Central America in the interests of the association. The second meeting was known as "Black Star Line night," in order that these distinguished officers of the corporation might explain in detail the particular concerning the S. S. Kanawha, purchased a year ago by the Black Star Line as one of its feet of steamers, and originally intended to engage in passenger and freight transportation between the West Indies and Central America. Both meetings were a distinct success, and gave immeasurable satisfaction, as well as pleasure, to all who attended them. The great auditorium was crowded to its utmost capacity on each night, as on the evening of the home welcome reception. Again hundreds and hundreds of people had to be turned away, notwithstanding that on Tuesday evening there was a considerable downpour of rain, so widespread is the interest taken by the public in Marous Garvey, foremost man in the race, as leader of the U. N. I. A. and president of the Black Star Ling Corporation, since returning Sunday night from his eventful, successful trip to distant seas and distant lands. In each instance the preliminary program of the evening was similar to that of the preceding night. First was the processional of the members of the High Executive Council, led by a guard of honor from the African Legion, followed by the surplained chain, the Black Cross Nurses, the Motor Corps Division, and Miss Turner, robbed in a costume of the colors of the Red, the Black and the Green, representative of the Goddess of Liberty, after which came His Excellency Marcus Garvey, the Hon. G. M. Johnson, high potentate and Mayor of Monrovia, Liberia; Rev. Dr. G. E. Stewart, high chancellor; Hon. Wilford H. Smith, counsellor general; Miss Henrietta Vilton Davies, and other officials. Chancellor Stewart offered the invocation. This was followed by the singing of the national and the universal anthem. Then came a concert, marked by the same high order that has distinguished all Liberty Hall special meetings. On Tuesday night, by special request, Miss Revella Hughes, pianist of the choir, sang the universal anthem and "The Kiss." Madame Fraser-Bobinson and Mr. Samuels were soloists also, in addition to which the choir sang several choices numbers, the band performing its part as usual. The music was greatly enjoyed, and drew forth rounds of applause from the audience. On behalf of the High Executive Council, representing the association, Rev. Fred, A. Touto, speaker in convention, read an address of welcome to Miss Henrietta Vinton Davis, upon her return from her recent voyage; an address full of appreciation and gratitude for the excellent work Miss Davis has done as international organiser while overseas with foreign lands; an address of the day. The address closed with the expression: "We welcome you for your stellar character." We welcome you for your womanly integrity, and we bwl you jhice welcome, for thon hast been to our leser, Marcus Garvey, as Miram, as worm to Moses. May you ever uphold the motto of our association—One God, one aim, one destiny!" Miss Davis was given a vary fattening ovation as she arose to speak. she greatly bowed in acknowledgment of the compliments, and immediately replied to the address of welcome. She was deeply moved, she said, by the kind and beautiful sentiments expressed in the welcome, for which she felt thankful, she then proceeded to relate, in her fascinating way, many of the experiences of her trip, in so far as concern the various cities she visited, the meetings held everywhere in her honor, and the enthusiasm displayed by the people wherever she stopped, accompanied by Mr. De Bourg, leader of the Western provinces of the West Indies. In the course of her address she said, with emphasis, that the world will have to reckon with the determination of the Negro peoples of the world to rise upward and obtain their places in the sun, to which they are entitled. Miss Davis was vociferously applauded, and was immediately followed by Mr. Garvey, who spoke at length and in considerable detail of the places he had visited, what he saw, the manner in which the people throughout received him as president-general of the U. N. I. A. and the enthusiasm and interest they manifested in the cause it represents. Among the places he visited were Havana, Nuevista, Preston, Moron and Santiago de Cuba, Cuba; Bolica, British Honduras; Kingston, Jamaica; Panama City, Colon, Almiranta, Panama; Boocos del Toro, San Jose, Costa Rica; Puerto Barrios, Guatemala. The interest and enthusiasm shown by the people in all these places, he said, was remarkable. In some instances they were even greater than that seen in Liberty Hall, New York as at Havana, Cuba, where he met President Menocal and the President-elect, both of whom showed an interest in the movement, and in Panama City and in San Jose. In San Jose the entire populace dropped outlaws, pick, hose and all instruments of labor to join in the revolutions and demonstrations he held in his meetings wore in the largest hall or the剧院 in the town. The admission fee was $1, which the people paid (despite their poverty) more cheerfully and willingly than the people in New York pay 50 cents. Fourteen thousand dollars was collected in the name of the association from entrance fees alone charged at the various meetings where Mr. Garvey spoke. Everybody, too, did all in their power to make his stay among them enjoyable and showed unbounded hospitality. In Panama he spoke in a bull ring, also in a circus tent, to vast crowds of thousands and thousands of people. In Belle, British Honduras, the people have a Liberty Hall costing $2,100, on which only a few hundred dollars remains unpaid. Here he met a Mr. Mortor, a black man known as "the Coconut King" and reputed to be a millionaire. He was Mr. Mortor's guest while in Belle, and found in him a warm supporter of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Black Star Line. Mr. Mortor is coming to Belle, and has bought to the limit of shares in the company. Mr. Garvey returned to New York by way of New Orleans, where he found a former membership of $200 of the U. N. L. A. increased to $400, due to the influence and good work of Mr. Adrian Johnson of the field corps. He spoke of Mr. Johnson in terms of the highest praise and appreciatively of the warm reception the people of New Orleans accorded him. Summing up the work of his trip, Mr. Garvey said the Universal Negro Improvement Association is a mighty rock, standing like the Book of Agues; that it is a movement that is sweeping on and on, with incredible progress and success, the strongest living three among Negroes the world over. It is causing men and governments and races to tremble, but there is no need for this, as it is not the enemy of any race or any government, being organized solely for the purpose of mutiling the black peoples of the world that they command and obtain that which is threa. Incidentally he expressed pride in referring to his masterpiece rise from a step-ladder orator in the city here four years ago, when the ordinary policeman on the beat would not even recognize him, to the distinguished position of president of the largest organization among colored people anywhere. Mr. Garvey at this juncture retreated his challenge to meet Dr. Dubols in open debate, and said that the doctor would find in him a dangerous fosman, and that though Dr. Dubols may be scholarly, though he may be from Harvard and from Tale, Marcus Garvey has been through some of the best schools abroad and himself is a graduate of the "Academy of the World." This remark was made in connection with a reference to the so-called cultural class of Negroes, of which Dr. Dubols is the head, as the opponents of the U. N. I. A. movement. The retention of the challenge was greeted with roars of laughter and caused the audience the greatest glee. In conclusion he said the Association is at its strongest point. He urged all to stand together and not to falter. The realization of the promised land—the redemption of Africa for the Negro—is not as far off, perhaps, he said, as some might think, and that the greatest opposition we have to contend with now is from hypocritical, distrustful and destructive leadership (this he believed responsible for the attempts made to prevent his return to the United States), and from enemies and traitors within the race. Miss H. M. V. Davis speaks Miss Hermania Vinton Daya, international organizer, responded to the address as follows: Your Ignition the Potentate, Your Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of the fellow members of the Executive Council, officers and the members of the Universal Network of Amnesty Association and friends. It gives preceding joy to be able to greet you tonight by the address as presented by the speaker in convention, embodying your appreciation of my feeble efforts in behalf of the race I love, the race that I am willing to work for, the race that I shall continue to sacrifice for, and, if need be, die for. (Chasra). My people are a great people; they are showing their greatness now as they have not been able to show it before. I left on this wonderful voyage to the West Indies and Central and South America on the 54th of March last. Little did I know what lay before me. Possibly I might have grown faint-hearted and discouraged. had I known what I should be called upon to pass through before returning to you. But God, the God of our Father, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of Ethiopia, has given me strength and given me courage and given me fortitude; and I stand before you once again enjoying perfect health, nothing damned by the circumstances that I have overcome, almost strengthened in the purpose to do or die (Cheers). These trials are permitted to come to us to try our strength, to test our faith, to see if we are made of pure gold or only sounding brains and tinkling cymbals. But, my friends, you have had much to encourage you. We felt while we were endangered by the perils of the sea that Liberty Hall was standing loyalty by the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association; that Liberty Hall was holding up the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green, and we who have gone out from Liberty Hall could do no less than to hold that banner up and never let it touch the ground. And so we have brought the banner back to you, installed, maintained, and it is waving in the breeze as it never waved before for the 400,000,000 Negroes of the earth. (Cheers.) After my arrival in Havana, Cuba, I have never witnessed more enthusiasm in Liberty, El Salvador, New York than I have witnessed in Liberty, Haiti, Havana, Cuba. (Chessa). All through Cuba I was permitted to travel by rail from Havana to Santiago de Cuba, stumbling at the different points where we had branches of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and I was proud indeed to see not only the Cuban comes out and speak the meeting, join the U. M. A., and add the audience in the English language, but I was proud to belong to the organization. (Chessa) "Oh," is ours. From Cuba, I went to its hands. These hands used to weaken palms because they matched with Haiti. Haiti Curry, had been a short time to his bitter limb, and he had attended the palms of Toussaint Louverture and Haiti Matteo Matteo. Haiti curry was the greatest and highest of all. WHY DONT YOU SUBSCRIBE FOR THE NEGRO WORLD? DON'T YOU WANT TO GET A COPY EVERY WEEK? Wouldn't you like to have it delivered to your house?

We called for Belize, British Honduras, and there we met such great enthusiasm not only from the citizens and natives of Honduras, but from the West Indies that sojourned there, from the Caribia, who were the aborigines of British Honduras. They, too, came to join our ranks, to mingle their voices with our voices, to subscribe to the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and to acclaim with one voice that Africa should be redeemed for her children wherever they may be scattered. (Chemer.) From Bali we went to Puerto Barria, Guatemala. There, too, the natives joined with the West Indians and with a few American Negroes who are down there in joining the U. N. I. A. They have a Liberty Hall there, too—a beautiful Liberty Hall, freshly painted to receive His Excellency the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and his party. These people were tireless in their efforts to make the meetings that we held a grand success, so much so that when the President of Guatemala came down to Puerto Barria to visit a French battleship that was there, they thought it was the Provicial President of Afrika, Marcus Garvey, and we were accosted on the streets of Puerto Barria by a white man asking us what time that special! train would get to Puerto Barria that was bringing the Provicial President of Africa, Marcus Garvey. (Laughter.) Marcus Garvey landed him in the field and said he did not know. (Honored laughter and cheers.) He wanted to know who was this Marcus Garvey. My friends, the whole world wherever the Nero dwelva is stirred by this great movement; they have taken on new life, a new hope and new cunge; they have their eyes fired on the goal, the redemption of our Fatherland. Today it was my privilege to look at some photographs of Monrovia, Liberia, to see the beautiful residences of our people in Monrovia, Liberia, to see the wide shady streets, to see the magnificent home of our illustrious Potentate. It did my heart good, and I hope these pictures will be thrown on the screen that you may see Liberia as she is and not as she has been painted by our enemies. I had a letter recently from one of our band, Mr. Donaldson, who was here with us and sat night after night at this table. He is in Liberia, blazing his way, organizing branches of the U. N. L. A., traveling along the coast, not dwelling in Monrovia, but going along the coast and into the interior. The world is stirred; people are thinking; people are making up their minds as never before. You talk about the determination of the smaller nations, but they have got to reason with the determination of the Negro people of the world. That determination has taken hold of them, and when I think of these wonderful men, these men sent to us by Jebrah, this man who has given his life to this cause, I say it is marvelous, and I must explain with Miriam: Sound the loud timbre o'er Egypt's dark seal Jehovah has trichinphas, his people are free (loud cheers). Hon. Maraes Garvey Speaks The Chaiminim then introduced the Hon. Maraes Garvey, who spoke as follows— as these meetings. They were attended by not only the ordinary citizens, but they were attended by some of the biggest officials in the Cuban Government, as also members of the Cuban Senate. After remaining in Havana for two days, it became widely known throughout the island that I was then speaking in Havana. A special message was sent throughout the length and breadth of Cuba to the various municipalities to extend to me the freedom of those municipalities wherever I should visit. Hense my trip through Cuba was a great experience, in that whenever I appeared, throughout Cuba, the officials of the communities, as well as the populace, received me with open arms. I was presented to His Excellency, the then President of Cuba, President Moncal YOU CAN WIN $1,000.00 Answer This Puzzle—Cash Prize Gives How many coins do you have in the house before you can win the prize?

FOR OPENING NIGHT RESERVED SEATS 75 CENTS ORDINARY ADMISSION 55 CENTS Tickets at Office, New York Local NATIONAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION 56 WEST 135th STREET, NEW YORK We having Cuba, the Jamaica, I left Havana and laid our joint working in the country, on the U. N. K. A. When I arrived in Jamaica, some time late in the morning, I was positive most heartily and enthusiastically by the citizens of Jamaica. My arrival into the city was not well known, that is, the hour and the time of my arrival was not known beforehand. Nevertheless, they were leading out for me at any time, while in the space of a people of minutes the news flashed around the city that I arrived so they came from all parts so as to greet me and bid me welcome to my own native land. The next night when I landed there I calmed myself. I would take a rest because I was suffering, but they refused to let me leave and arranged a welcome meeting for me, and that night hundreds of thousands were turned away from the Collegiate Hall where the welcome was being held to see. The next night I arrived at them, in the largest public building in Jamaica, the Ward Theatre, and it was said it was the first time in the history of that theatre that so many people were turned into it, and although the capacity of the theatre was overloaded we turned away thousands and each person inside had an aniline and 6 pence to enter building. Notwithstanding the police and the country the people overcame the building to demonstrate their enthusiasm for the Universal Improvement Association: I addressed large meetings at the Ward Theatre and attended the entire Island of Jamaica in the minds of the Universal Improvement Association, inasmuch so that the several days Jamaica being the most militant country in the West the militants India dared to attack me; they were afraid. Then after several days passed by some of the bolder critics of the country came forward and attacked me and three of you in the United States who have received communications from Jamaica will realize how we handled ourselves in the same way. Mr. N. E. K. A. (Gleicher) we believed ourselves in Jamaica so appalled that I immediately buttered in Jamaica bold enough to attack the Universal Improvement Association. We disclosed the critics of Jamaica. From Costa Rica I want to Bocas del Toro and there again I had another beautiful time in the provinces of Almirante, up in the woodlands of Bocas del Toro; there you will find hundreds and thousands of West Indian Negroes, chiefly Barbadians and Jamaicans—the majority, Jamaicans. They had saved their money there and had kept it on tap until I got there to buy shares in the Pack Star Line and bonds in the Liberian Construction Loan. There again we did great business, and the enthusiasm was warm. There again the United Frult. Co. could, not get the people to work, until I was out of the country, and they gave us special trains and ran them at midnight and did everything to accommodate us. We could have a successful time in order that I should get out and allow some work to be done. I left Boca del Toro for Colon. I arrived in Colon some time in April and told me again. I want unannounced because I did not want any trouble with the Canal Toad Government. They were looking for me, somewhere and I was determined to get there from under the sea; so I took a submarine, and I just got out of the water one afternoon and dropped on shore in Colon and checked my baggage and stood up beside a man. I said to him, "Sam, go and call Mr. Morales." He said, "Who are you?" I said go and call Mr. Morales Marcus Garvey want him and in two minutes after there were about ten thousand people around me. By that time the Canal Zone heard I was there, but there was ten thousand around me so they could not get to me through the crowd. Mr. Morales came in an automobile and took me to the place they had prepared for me—the residence of Dr. Hammlet, a kind-hearted man, and a loyal member of the U N I A from Barbados, he is now a citizen of Panama. He entertained me and my party royalty and we enjoyed our stay in his home. The first afternoon when I the force forced me to come out on the veranda to make a speech and I had to make a speech and inform them that I would speak that night. Night came .and it was arranged for me to speak in Liberty Hall. Liberty Hall of Colon is a beautiful structure and can accommodate 800 or 900 persons, and when I went there at 7 oclock the place was over crowded. I believe they had a thousand people in the hall, all having paid a dollar aplace, and there were about 8,000 outside trying to get into the hall; there were about 3,000 on the veranda of another building outside, and the crowd was so immense they tore the veranda down, and the veranda all around that building was over crowded with people trying to hear something of my voice as giving an explanation of the aims and objects of the Universal Improvement Association. I delivered six addresses in Colon, each night and each afternoon, and we did a splendid business there. From Colon we journeyed up to Panama City, and as I said last night, when I arrived in Panama City I met the largest crowd of people I have ever seen at any one time—at least Negro people. They came from all directions. They overcrowded the city. From the time I arrived I met crowds of people and they made such a rush on me that they lifted me from the car, smashed the windows of the car, took me out, lifted me and carried me to the automobile, placed me in the automobile and they all got in the automobile (Cheers and Laughter). You can just imagine the work of that poor automobile. They got into the automobile, punctured the tires and put the automobile on the rims, and they were not satisfied until they had to get out and push it all the way. (Laughter.) They had a gala day in Panama. On my arrival in the city it was said by the Panama newspapers that it was the largest assembly of people ever yet seen in the Republic of Panama. I addressed the people that night in the circus tent. A circus company was over the tent to us for that night where I addressed the tent and the following Saturday afternoon and Sunday night I addressed a large concourse of people in the "Bull Ring." Thousands of people assembled, because it was the largest place they could get. The meetings were so successful that the news went all the way down the Zone and everybody wanted to hear me. On Monday night everybody came out to hear me for the last. They got a theatre with a meeting capacity, I think, of 1,800. The meeting was scheduled for $ 8 o'clock and by $ 6 o'clock the theatre was over crowded and over two thousand people were outside clamoring to get $ 8. At $ 8 o'clock when I got there I had to go through a dense crowd of people, and at that time they were clamoring $ 50, $ 55, $ 20, and $ 25 just to get a peep in to hear me for the last time in Panama. I was very sorry that all the people could not be accommodated and they went away at 11 o'clock when I dismissed the meeting, back to the Canal Zone. They came in automobiles from all parts of the Zone. In returning from Panama to Colon I boarded a ship of the United Fruit Go. for Jamaica. On my return to Jamaica I addressed another series of meetings, and then made up my mind to return to the United States of America. The day prior to arranging for my passage to the United States of America, I requested a cabble from Miss Davis in marriage asking me to come immediately to Santiago because there was trouble there with the members deter- tained to discipline the captain and crew of the Kanawah who had displeased them by their actions and the stockholders there had called a meeting, and if I did not go down there would have been serious trouble, because somebody would have been lynched in Santiago. I went there in time to save the situation and took the ship from Santiago to Jamaica. The explanation about the ship I will give to you tomorrow night in my discussions of the Black Star Line. I want all of you to turn out tomorrow night to hear me on the subject of the Black Star Line. Tomorrow night you will get all the information you desire about our ship, the Kanawah, and about the business relationship of the Black Star Line and what has been done since my absence. But suffice it to say that from Jamaica I traveled with Miss Davis, Miss Jacques and her brother to Belize, British Honduras, with the intention of going by that way to the United States of America. We were heartily received in Belize, British Honduras, by the people of that country. In Belize they have a beautiful Liberty Hall. They bought that Liberty Hall proper for $1,500, and they had paid all but a couple of hundred dollars. It is a splendid hall and is living testimony of the loyalty and devotion and the splendid spirit of the people living in that city of Belize in British Honduras. I spoke there for several nights and won the confidence of the people. There I was the guest of a black man who is known as the "Coconut King" of Central America. He is known to be a millionaire—a man who is coming up to the convention to be presented to you—a loyal member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. His name is Mr. Iman Mortor. He is known as the "Coconut King" of Central America; so we have already started to make "coconut kings," and soon we will have diamond kings in Africa. We were his guests for the time we remained in Belize. From Bellis we went to Puerto Barrios, Guatemala, and we saw a beautiful division of the organization. There are people there from all parts of Jamaica, Barbados* and other West Indian Islands and from America. They are domiciled there and work for the United Fruit Co. They have banded themselves into a division of the U. N. I. A. and are doing splendid work. They sent out with me on the ship which I came their deputy, Mr. Clifford Bourne, who was here at the last convention as their representative—a splendid man, a man who has done great work for the U. N. I. A. in Guatemala as well as in other parts of Central America. Later on during this week I will take the pleasure and honor of introducing Mr. Bourne to you, because he has come to you representing one of the strongest divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that stands 100 per cent for the cause that you represent. Again, in Barrios, I had the privilege and good fortune to be entertained by another "prince" of the race. I was entertained by Mr. Ronau, who is known as the uncrowned king of Guatemala—a black man; when you think of money you think of that man in Barrios. He is a 100 per cent. U. N. I. A. and has bought to the limit in the shares of the Black Star Line. I was entertained by him most hospitably. From Puerto Barrios I sailed for New Orleans and arrived there last Wednesday morning. Before I departed for the West Indies and Central America I gave an itinerary to all the men of the council and to the men of the field corps, and sent them out into different sections of this country, and among the men I sent out was Colonel Adrian Johnson. All of you are acquainted with Mr. Adrian Johnson during the convention here and during the time preparatory to the convention when he was around Liberty Hall and did splendid work for the cause. I sent him to the far South—New Orleans, La. There were just about 100 or 200 members down there who were not organized. I sent him to organize New Orleans, La., Mississippi and Alabama. He spent a couple of months in New Orleans, in the heart of the South, and he took the 200 members to 2,000 when I arrived there. (Choate.) Johnson did splendid work in the South, and I do hope that all the members of the Executive Council who were sent out will have a record as good as Johnson to present to the convention, because we have to recognise men for their work and for their merit. Johnson was not satisfied only to be in New York; he went into the heart of the South; he went into jail came out of jail and organised the U. N. I. A. for the better (Cheers), and I understand now that he has the heart to go into Texas, and from there I hope he is coming back to the con- vention. So you will see the stuff he is made up of. When I arrived in New Orleans I found hundreds of loyal men—good men and true men—who were waiting to receive me through the great work that Johnson had done preparatory to my getting thirst. We had a time in New Orleans. I spoke for two nights in the National Park in New Orleans, where we had thousands of people, and there they celebrated the occasion just as they did in Costa Rica. They had a large plaza and they had midnight dances and other amusements. They had music, and they danced all night. From New Orleans I journeyed to New York and arrived here at 0.15 last Sunday morning. I rested on upet in because I was too tired to come out on Sunday night, and last night I appeared before you for the first time after being away for five months. New York World. I believe, that when they arrived in Jamaica all they could hear was discussions of President Wilson and Marcus Garvey. Before I got there some other tourists said all they could hear about was Marcus Garvey and the Black Flag Line. Wherever they have gone and they have come back, they have said that. It shows that you have made an impression the world over. That is what we wanted that is what we were organized for, and the question is now not only Liberty Hall, New York, it is Liberty Hall everywhere. (Cheers.) They have been worried about Africa. My good friends, the British have said: "But why, this provisional president of Africa?" That is the thing that is troubling them. They do not know what part of Africa, and I won't tell them. (Laughter.) That is all they are worried over. You have every cause to be satisfied with the work you have done. I have not given enough in money and in sofae to the Universal Negro Improvement Association because what has been done here already is enough satisfaction for me for all that I have done for the cause. Because wheeoever I go I see the change that has come about among Negroes. Negroes who used to submit to a kick and insult with a smile are standing up now and saying: "Man, what do you mean by it?" Not only in America, but through the West Indies and all through Central America, and if you once wear the colors of the Universal Negro Improvement Association—the red, the black and the green—nobody will molest you in Central America and in the West Indies. Do you know that during the war between Panama and Costa Rica the Costa Ricans invaded the Panamanian territory in Guabito, in the province of Almirante, in one particular section, and when they came they were looking for every Panamanian under the Panamanian flag, and the Panamanians ran out of the town and there was but one flag seen in that town of Guabito. It was the flag of the African republic—the red, the black and the green—and in the house over which that flag floated Panamanians and West Indians sheltered themselves for protection. When the Costa Rican approached and asked what flag is that, the president of the division said "That is the flag of the republic of Africa." The Costa Ricans turned away and said "All right." (Cheera.) And for over forty-eight-hour that was the only flag that gave protection to the Negro people who lived in that section called Guabito. It was the only recognized flag, and any man who sheltered himself under that flag was not disturbed. It proves to you the force and the potency of this IMPORTANT NOTICE Delegates and members of the territories of the Trunk L Passenger Associaiton, through Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, Illinois, may obtain Certificates Body Office, 56 West 135th St This Certificate entitles it the Convention for a fare and bought between the dates of J inclusive.

We are endeavoring to do them no harm; we are only trying to organize ourselves in a peaceful manner for our own protection. So white folks need not fear of Negroes, because if Negroes did not trouble them in the past they will not trouble them now. If when they were beating Negroes and killing Negroes we did not get even with them, I do not see why Negroes should interfere with them so long as they go about their business and allow Negroes to go about their business.

WHAT OF EMPEROR JONES Mr. Engle O'Neill's so-called wondertful play, described as a study of the psychology of fear and of race superstition, which Mr. Harrison so readily commends to Negroes as a work of art, is based on his experience by race-loving Negroes as a work of genius. Surely "Something is rotten in Denmark" when Hubert Harrison lands "Emperor Jones." That is the trouble with our educated and intelligent men. They are using their brains to own their lives. Mr. Harrison says that he must apologize for using the word psychology in the Negro World, I wonder if Mr. Harrison thinks that the readers of the Negro World are all a fool? It is hard to imagine that he is minded meaning of psychology he can look in Webster's Dictionary for it. He states in his writing, "I am still at loss to understand how this play could ever become a Broadway success." What a pity. I answer, just how much I have learned about Broadway success. Anything that causes the white man to believe that the Negroes are superstitious, immoral and illiterate, whether he views it from a psychological standpoint or from a psychological standpoint, or have been taught the psychology is the study of the human soul, science of mind a knowledge of the genesis, powers and functions of the mind. If that be true, why did Mr. N'Orell not make his main character white instead of black? He made the white man's standard which he hath made for himself (although he is the most perfect one). They would never picture him to the world as a superstitious grafter, but the Negro-wall was done before, so Emperus Jonas' was made a black man. One does not need "an understanding of drama and its laws," to quote Mr. Harrison, to realize that "Emperor Negroes of the world. The play does not elevate the Negro, and such plays never will. It matters not if they be based upon psychology or not. Such men as Mr. Harrison, who enchance white plays rights by landing them in the Negro's value to the Negroes. Remember always the man who allows a man to make a fool out of him will always be a fool. Charles Gilpin has won fame in "Emperor's forces." Now let the white man write him of the higher plays and see how long he will remain on the great white way. The time has come when Negroes will not accept such plays as great. Let the white man write them of the Negroes will say "Atta Boy." MRS WILLIAM A. CORBIL EURS ST. Cambridge, Mass.

WORLD SAYS JACK JOHNSON IS STILL A GREAT NATIONAL HERO, BUT NOT A LEADER LIKE MARCUS GARVEY Jack Johnson, Still Great Hero to His Race, Welcomed by 7,000 in "Black Belt" at $1 a Head—"Paid Debt to Society," He Says, and Wahts to "Take on Dempsey" When B. L. K. (Ned) Gerardia of Harvard University outgamed himself through space by his own efforts for a distance of 28 feet 3 inches on Saturday at the athletic hall of Nesro, where he will require a Saparmit to displace him. Ande from having played the running broad jump mark at the top of all world's performances in this department, he marks the first man of Nesro to attain the honor leading all man of all time in any branch of track and field athletics. Year in and year out for more than a generation of athletes of all nations, he has achieved O'Connor's 24 feet 11% inches, this being the world mark credited to the elated Irishman as the result of a "lap" on August 8, 1801, by the Ould Cole. The nearest approach to that tremendous leap since that time was that by Al Gutterman, the Vermont farmer, who hurled himself over a gap of 26 feet 13-8 inches in the Stockholm Olympics in 1912, falling short of the required best mark by 85-100 of an inch. Mark Vastly Superior Now that an American—and a Negro at that—has sung himself farther than any human in a broad jump in which the measurement was taken from the outer edge of a "take-off" block to the first break in the ground, it can be stated, without fear of contradiction, that he approached a better performance by probably a foot that accredited to O'Connor. And by the same token, that by Gutterson was in the neighborhood of eight inches better. Difference in system of measurement makes for the contention that the results obtained by Gourdin and Gutterson were superior to O'Connor's $8.13\%$ improvement. That mark measurement was taken from toe to heel, the final imprint of the heel nearest to the take-off mark the tapes showing of $24.13\%$. The American scheme of things in connection with broad jump measurements tends to bring about greater excitement than in the case of the leopard. It demands that in order that the athlete lose nothing in distance he must strike the take-off perfectly, the measurement being taken at the start of the first break of the ground at the end of the lap. When O'Connor jumped the first break was not considered, but measurement was not taken to the end of the take-off, taking-off ground, which means that N. Y. WORLD SAYS STILL A GREAT NAT NOT A LEADER LIKE Jack Johnson, Still Great He by 7,000 in "Black Be Debt to Society," He S on Dempsey" Jack Johnson, former best-wieldy champion of the world, arrived from Chicago on the Century train yesterday. He was met at Grand Central Terminal by representatives of 7,000 Negroes, and by the time he and his party had been whisked in automobiles as far as the gate ruined of the "Black Belt" in Harlem the entire 7,000 were following. Two of the utterances he made in a short address from his automobile at Eighth avenue and 158th street were: "I have paid my debt to society and I now square again!" "I want to fight some live ones and I want to take on this bare Dampsey. I believe I could lick him!" The first remark obviously returned to him, whom has just finished at Fort Leavonworth for violation of the Mann act. His greeting was significant in that it showed Johnson (if he ever doubted it) that his people are "with him" he uttered with a cheer. But there was something more than smiling faces. To the Negro man and woman Johannis is more than a man who is just "square" with a cheer. He here. Not a leader like Marus Gervery. But a hero—the man who whipped Jeffries eleven years ago. Testerday around moon was just a "spark" for Jack Johann. He were more than a new shoe. Just adjacent to where he delivered the apology to the Manhattan Casion. The Casion will comfortably hold 4,000, and the entire 7,000 were attempting to buy it. There it was. It was to be an "affirming invitation" and Johnson went inside to do the handshake. With his hand, he kissed White with also his hand. He kissed Black with also his hand. The handshake was uphward of eight inches was, enclosed by the jumper. America has had a wonderful Nagro athlete, as had England and Australia, but up to the advent of the mighty Guggenheim never has the Nagro race been able to point with pride to the world in some particular track and field endeavor. Pennsylvania had the late John E. Teylon, a college man who was a marvel at quarter mile running, having won than 1907 and 1908. Solburit was a great jumper and Howard P. Drew was coholder of the 8-9 for 100 yards. England had Charley Wharton, and Australia Charley Samuels, both sprinters world leaders, but they were never world leaders. It is a remarkable thing that but one Negro out of probably 10,000 ever amounts to a hill of beans as a spinner or a jumper. The Negro's lag muscles are as distinctly unlike those of white men as are Dempsey's unlike Carpenters. The Negro calf and thigh muscles inine to cord and its up to a degree which makes it next to impossibly strong and offers for which nervous energy is most contributing factor. Therefore the marvelousness of Gourdin. He is a strong spinner as well as the world's leading bread bumper. Feat Doesn't Surprise There is nothing more surprising to the initiated about Gourdin's 19-3-1. He has been flirting with that sort of a jump for about a year, as might any man who can as consistently leap in the vicinity of twenty-four feet. Gourdin's wonderful thigh power is the chief contributing factor toward his ability to dig himself through the earth. He can do a sound 10-1-4 is his ability to get his jumping leg under him so that his body is not a deterrent when he essays to lift his thigh preparatory to the final thrust of the legs and the heavie of the body forward at the finish of the jump. He has a far cry back to the first authenticated broad jump records in 1876, but the suffice to show the remarkable progress which has been made in the figure Isnish Fradier of Konkara won the national title in that year with 17 feet 4 inches, while H. L. Willoughby of Penny animated the intergladiates in the 1970s with Gourdin's 35 feet 8 inches marking progress and a full which may not be repeated for another such great of years.-Daily News, N.

An official of the Harlem Citizens' Committee told a reporter for the World that the rage was more intense "round town before and after." But that fact could not be sufficiently verified to justify belief. Johnson went in an automobile with Sandy Thompson, Dick Ellis, Dick Kay and Dutch, Mayer. He inspected and purchased a new car at the agency, then walked with his friends nine blocks up Broadway, and when the following became too large, hopped into Ellis's car and went back to Ellis's home at No. 48 West 11st street, "to rest." At 8:20 the reception at Manhattan Casino was continued. Given thousand persons had been admitted up to midnight and the line outside was still forming. Twenty reserves from Headquarters at 410 order the office of the official program. Johnson, in evening dress, flower in buttonhole, appeared shortly after 18 o'clock. Flanked or by Bob Armstrong and on the other by Irish Hewlett, he waited to his mage-dacked box with the dignity of an potatoe. Then the band played the national anthem. To write concerning Carverson is not quite as easy. a task might be imagined, Ap, open as, the subject is given serious consideration, with the cause of being fair and impartial, a subject that Carverson as the term implies, relates to the doctrine of Marcus Carverson—the principles of the U. N. L. A. commonly known as the Carverson movement in so far, as $f$ adhere to the fundamental teaching, and ideas of Carverson. However, it does see that the conceptions pertaining to this movement—Socialism, for example—undergo changes in the course of time and progress. Even the conceptions of Christianity have been molded and re-molded from time to time to meet the needs of social conditions. At present we are actually in danger of losing sight of the real complications of the various New Thought ideas which have invested His life and teachings with new interpretations. It should also be noted that nearly all of the writers and commentators upon Garviesim show a decided tendency to interpret it, not on the basis of the hope it shall be. They pass off their hopeful conceptions of Garviesim as Garviesim. The constitution and bylaws of the U. N. L. A. writings and speeches of Garvies and the Declaration of Independence of the Negro race, drawn up at the U. N. L. A. Convention during the N. A. Convention, are understood as the authentic sources of the principles of Garviesim. The essay of the constitution and by-laws of the U. N. L. A. when stripped of its superfluous verbiage and its attempts at the recourseance of medieval autocracy in toward treason will. Gervaisen is the call to racial manhood and independence. It is a revolt against the past intrinsic and extrinsic conditions of the Negro. The severe subservient dependence to which the Negro was heavily conditioned made a profound alienation upon him into a supernate, cowardly, cringing childish being. Worse than that, his long and absurd economic dependency upon the white man had appalled all of his crestiveness and initiative in the field of business endeavor. His spirit had become reconnected to the belief that the white man had special Providence. He had lost both his individual and racial manhood, dignity and respect. Optimistic as he was, his optimism was sadden: if ever directed towards an earthly paradise towards, the day when justice would man. He was of the opinion that his heaven and place of social justice would be after death and in heaven. But a change was to be seen upon upon the horizon. No longer did Nigroe decide to cringe and whitewash the earth to interpret this new siph. He expressed: it is in the following manner: Unknown to the white people of this land a temper is being developed that can people will have to reckon. Philosophical evolution and variations are the result of new feelings and ideas. New words and forms of expressions have an positive suggestive influence upon the very feeling and ideas to which they own their origin. New expressions were coined to indicate the new spirit of the Negro. The most popular of these most telling and effective was the term "too-boo-she-hin-ndo-Negro," which applied to the old type Negro. If we not mistaken, this term was coined by Handelb and Owen. At least they made it poplob in the Messenger. Magazine. "They used it with such telling and pittless effect that it was undoubtedly one of the force of the movement." Kafka also loved the retreat of the old Negro, fell into crowd. This appropriation either forced them to remain silent or to take over under the name of New Negro. All these factors and conditions prevailed, for the spread of *Garverson*. Garverson's appeal to race pride, race courage and race initiative was begun to make a profound appeal, because it was race. Race is wrapped till its biological being, class is as economic and social condition and nationality is really geographical. As an part of history, Garverson developed New Mexico and nomadic settlement with the original African for the Arizona. The success of this appeal was both to bring New Mexico together, in a sense, of patriots nationally, united and self-reliant, and to establish a national tradition of "good" White, Black and American Negro. In proportion to the identified the patriotic and sentimental alliance towards APF in national problems—migration, nationalism, ethnicism, economic growth over the world and common basis.

Why do you not know that you are indebted to the Negro for tobacco, peanuts and sweet potatoes? Every time you smoke a cigarette a clear or pipe, everytime you eat peanuts and everytime you eat sweet potatoes, you are enjoying the discovery of Africana. Every time you wear a shoe made by the United Shoe and Leather Company of Boston, Masse, you should remember that the last which is used in making that shoe was invented by a Dutch Guinea Negro. Every time you use the Bell telephone you should remember that Granville Woods, a Cincinnati Negro, invented the transmitter used in that telephogue. Every time you sit down to write an editorial by the light of an incandescent lamp you should remember that Louis Lattimer, a Boston Negro, showed Maxim, the inventor, how to make a perfect carbon which made the Martin's incandescent lamp a success. Every time you look up to the clock to see what time it is you should remember that Benjamin Bannaker, a Baltimore Negro, invented the first clock which was used in America. So why should not the Negro sit in the councils of the white man's civilization? Especially since Negro blood coursed in the veins of Alexander Hamilton, America's greatest statesman and financier. COL. HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON COMMENDED BY WM. C. MATTHEWS Mr. W. H. Ferris, Editor The Negro World, 58 West 118th St. New York. My dear Professor: I would like to share with the members of the Negro Improvement Association throughout the world to be advised of the excellent services rendered them by Colonial Henry Lincoln Johnson, the only member of our race who is a member of the Negro Association (and latterly named by President Harding as Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia) in the matter of valuably assisting me in securing the admission into this country of His Highness, the Potentate of the Negro Association, Colonial Johnson gladly and willingly assisted me in bringing to a successful termination this splendid piece of work, and it was made possible by the high regard in which he is held by the high regard in which James J. Da Vinci very truly yours. I enclose prospecti of my book, "The African Abroad." I will send you a set of the books, then you will discover that in things Africu you have been wandering in the wilderness—that is, things Africu you have been far, out at sea. What you need is enlightenment. Of course, I presume that according to your way of thinking, a Negro who has studied history, sociology, science, literature, psychology, philosophy, has not been "reised right." Competitions are required to write on one side of the paper and engage all participants here. If a name-demeaning is used for publication. Unless these rules are complied with, competitions will receive no consideration. In these cases, the winner will receive the publication. Unlike our competitions we will not change advertising or other rate for publishing any news items that is of public interest. But according to my way of thinking the temperature in Hades will undergo such a cooling that the beighthed residents of the informal regions could vary the monotony of their unhappy state by gliding on steel runners over a sea of frozen ice before I would believe God would damn a man because the coloring matter in his pigment cells made his complexion darker in hues than that of his neighbor.

THE REDEMP- TION OF AFRICA Had we read Editor Smith's article on the Ku Klu Klan before we wrote our reply we would have informed him that in the sixty centuries man has struggled upward, for thirty-five centuries black, brown and yellow men灯 the torch. The white man did not begin to figure prominently until twenty-five centuries ago and Mr. Smith's race did not begin to rise until fifteen centuries ago. In the three centuries in which the race that Edith Smith belongs to forged to the front, the brawn and muscula, the tail and sweat of black and brown men, and the valor of black and brown men played an important part. Nearly all of the men in the United States. And in the recent World War two million African soldiers, most of them black men, saved the day for France at the Marne and Verdun. Prof Wm. H. Ferris, Editor The Negro World, New York City. "Dear Sir—As a reader of The Negro World and one can see the special activity of the Negro, seeing in it the ladder the only safe one, by which he can climb to great political heights, even to the height of enjoying an independent nation, and to the purpose of your columns for the purpose of appealing to Negroes not to allow their desires and intentions as to the redemption of Africa to be illused to sleep by the current thought forces in favor of the content or the limitation of emancipation. The race that Editor Smith is identified with and which boasts of his color had no part in the glory that was Greece, and the grandeur that was Rome. But the Mediterranean race, with which the Negro is racially connected, laid the foundation for the glendid Graco-Roman civilization. So while the Anglo-Saxon has systematized law and business and worked miracles in applying science and philosophy to practical problems, it is also well to remember that he was a later comer upon the scene and that other races, some brown, some black and some yellow originated and developed the science, mathematics, philosophy, theology, Heritage, art and architecture which he has used and applied. The foundation stones of the world's civilization were not in Mobile Bay, the Mississippi River, the Gulf of Mexico and the Thames by white men, but by brown and black men in the waters of the Nile, the Tigris and Euphrates centuries ago. One of the fundamental principles of thought dynamics is that thoughts produce acts and that acts, in turn, react on the mind. When a thought reaches the intensity or the ripeness of a desire or a belief, it invariably expresses itself in the mind. When influences (reacts on the mind, either for good or evil) But we are specially interested in what Pitchfork says of the white man and the Negro. The white man is intellectually the Lord of creation. His apperence resembles ability, in the realm of the installed fards him to neglect his physical creature, duty. The white man finds us been a delight in the spirit of the mind as the Negro finds in his sport of the flesh. The result is that while the white man is writing books, carving statues, painting pictures, writing one philosophies of government, envaluing the forces of nature with his inventive genius, digging into the myriad walls of the offspring of truth that will shape the soul's infinite years; while the white man is emulating time and space byying contests together with rails of steel and cords of copper, scanning the law of impersonal power, riding like an imperial bird on the winds—while the white man is putting aside things, the Negro used is in his darkened door containing all with a flesh soul. Renault—Give Negro babies to one white man. The Negro, by force of superior numbers, is setting about to bully the white man into political and social subordination. He threatens to burn his slow and sillegate plants into the arteries of the white man, putting on a fire that hits in the hearts of kiky children with the glow of the white man's genius. In sixty centuries almost everyone wrote a book, never composed an opera, never chiseled them, simply stump one form of grate on beauty, never invented a abstraction, didn't ever learn to cook his meat, and NOW! WHAT? How much more than once exposed the white man to mindless and because of political injustice, made him the usual politically, of the white man, to DEMANDS a seat at the council table of the white man's civilization. Now for the past half century and more the deserts and beliefs of the white nations of the earth, as expressed in terms of national polity, have been centered on the exploitation of the lands and the labor of the darker peoples, and with crowning success. South African natives are being made to work from sunrise to sunset for a paltry income. The native masters in the West Indies has become heartfandling; India has been reduced to a state of desperation; and in our own South peoplen in various forms has become rampant. IT is not our custom to answer editorially the statements of correspondents with which we do not wholly agree. But occasionally, we do so to prevent our readers from thinking that we sanction certain things said about the principles of the U. N. I. A. Elsewhere we print Mr. Hodge Kirson's discriminating and illuminating article on Garveyism. Mr. Kirson's article as well as William Belford's article on "Garveyism, A Cult" in the June and July issue of the Challenge Magazine, differ from the articles usually written on Marcus Garvey and the organizations which he has founded. Riseout of attempting to analyze the personality of Marcus Garvey, they give a psychological analysis of the phenomena of Garveyism and a philosophical explanation of its rapid and remarkable spread over the world. Both of these articles are contributions to the literature of the subject. And Mr. Kirson recognizes that Garveyism is hope, is social optimism, and appeals to race pride, race courage and race initiative. Staggering under the weight of their ill-gotten gains, facing financial ruin as the fruit of their various and massed policies of exploitation, and the new state of war, now prate about disarmament, entirely ignoring the cause from which the necessity for disarmament has arisen. Do not be bullied to sleep or into a false sense of security by the current thought 'force on disarmament, my fellow citizens,' and the mad need of economic imperialism have had a long run and are feeling spent. Not until the white nations of the earth cause to exploit the tands and the labor of the darker peoples will wars cease, for in the cup of exploitation and hate—and found envy, jealousy and hate—and "the Holy Trinity" of war. He says, however: "The Garveytes also speak both indiscriminately and incriminatingly against white people regardless of their radical or liberal tendencies towards the race question. 'This is downright ignorance.' We challenge this statement, not because we desire to enter into a debate with Mr. Kirion, but because that is the prevailing opinion of the Garveytes and because we desire to correct a nonwhite error retarding them." The Hon. Marvus Garvey said in his address in Liberty Hall last Monday night that he was charged with hating white people, but that he was too biy, building up his race to have anyone. A careful persual of the editorial columns of The Negro World will show that Emidiond, Prof. Wm. James and Prof. Josiah Royce of Harvard, Dr. George Trumbull Ladd and Prof. Wm. Graham Sumner of Yale, John Brown, Wendell Phillip, Charles Sumner, Wm. Lloyd Garrison, Abraham Lincoln, Mr. Truman Tallier, Dr. Wm. Hayes Ward, Dr. Hamilton Holt, Dr. Samuel Hartt, Phato, Kent, Lorea Spinosa, Bergson, Einstein, Difarall, Lord Reading) Winthrop Murray, Crein, Morefield Stovey and several other white men who have furthered the cause of civilization and human rights who compelled the power of men to overrope a hostile environment have been favorably mentioned. In his discussion of affairs of Howard University the Literary Editor of The Negro World stated that he was not prejudiced against any man because he was white or predisposed in his favour because he was black. The main question was whether he was a white and was willing to give black men the right to vote and unfold the great being. Thus far of the history of Garrison this entitled him to stop committing the grievous white crime. Mr. Kitton says that the Theodore of Garrison have been somewhat shillings in applying the principles of Garrison to hide down in the discrimination of the Negro race. Again we damn not because we desire to come into a debate with Mr. Kitton but because that is another probably important error which we desire to see the public right from. The constitution and the bill of white cover such a wide field and concern so many things that it will be impossible to realize much in one or two years. Since the Average person makes many different decisions in his life he shows no evidence of the lack of understanding of the public right from. As a race we must work hard, save more and do our utmost to get some measure of control of the raw materials of the earth, for they are the mother of the earth. For we must have the mother of the military. The thought force produced by 494,600,000 Negroes when registered into acts will bring about. If not in this generation, surely in the next and in a natural way, the "Africe of our African" the ruling nations of the earth have been invited to a conference on the question "of disarmament. The first sign" has appeared. BUSTON R. MAYHEW. New York City. July 11, 1974. THE CRITICS OF ETHIOPIA W. H. Furia, D.D.

A FULLFILLED PROPH- ECY—THE CHARACTER OF THE AFRICAN Editor of The Negro World: King Sir: is a subscriber for the Negro World, both to the Black Star Line, Inc. Being interested in anything that is for the uplifting and betterment of our race, I enclose extracts of an article that I read from the works of William E. Channing, a lengthy discourse on emancipation. The conclusion was the remarks of a Mr. Alexander Kimont on the character of the African, a lecture delivery of Dr. William E. Channing, in 1884 object: "Man." I am so hopeful and enthusiastic in the belief that a better day is rapidly approaching for our people, and this article gave me new strength, as it is in accord with the spirit of the U. N. I. A. Coming from the vision of a white man of that remote data, it impressed me as prophecy. Thinking some others might be benefi- tated and encouraged, is the purpose of my intrusion. If thought worthy, would be pleased if you gave it space in your periodical. Wishing you and the movement suc- When the epoch of the civilization of the Negro family arrives, in the lapse of ages, they will display in their native land some very peculiar features, which we, a distinct branch of the human family, can at present form no conception. It will be—indeed, it must be—a civilization of a peculiar stamp; perhaps we might venture to conjecture, that the Negro family has a certain beautiful nature; not so marked or adorned by science as exalted and refined by a new and lovely theology—a reflection of the life heaven more perfect and enduring than the life of the Caucasian race have ever yet exhibited. There is more of the child of unphisticated nature, in the Negro race than in the European. The remnants of Africa is the home of the Negro family, and destined seat of his future glory and civilization—a civilization, which we need not fear to predict, will be as distinct in all its features from that of all other races as his complication and temperament and genius are different. But who can doubt that here, also, humanity in its more advanced and millennial stage will reflect, under a sweet and mellow light, the suffer at the Caucasian race is deasired, as would appear from the precocity of their genius, and their natural quickness and extreme aptitude to the arts, to reflect the hostre of the divine wisdom, speak more properly the welfare of the Caucasian Negro if a latter but far nobler civilization awaits him—to return the splendor of the divine attributes of mercy and benevolence in the practice and exhibition of all the milder and more powerful of intellect in the Negro family than in the Caucasian, as I am disposed to believe, does that forbid the hope of the return of that pure and gentle state of society among them that extracts the peculiar regard of heaven? The swester graces of the Christian religion appear almost too tropical and tender plants to grow in the soil of the Caucasian mind; they require a character of human nature, of which you can see the rude features in the Ethiopian to be implanted in and grow naturally and beautifully within. MR. TAYLOR-ACTIVE IN BARRING "THE CLANSMAN" IN CAN SARAHCO, CA Kind Sigy, X, notified in the issue of your publication of July 2, 1821, a report from this place over the signature of Mr. Gargar W.

WOMEN'S INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION TO BE ONE OF BIG FEATURES OF CONVENTION One of the big features of the coming Convention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will be the colored women's Industrial Exhibition to demonstrate the achievements of the women of the race in industry and art. The exhibition will be held in the building at the northwest corner of 18th street and Seventh avenue, which is the location of the High Commissioner General who has charge of the work. There are elaborate preparations under way to make the exhibition not only a big feature, but also an interesting one. The work for the event has been going on for several weeks, and it is believed it will be very unique and a distinct success, affording an inspiration to young colored women, and older ones. This will be an important effort in the useful branches of industry and art, for their own development and advancement. Exhibits will be made in needlework, art work, musik, antique productions, literature, pure foods, and the like, and it is expected that these will come from 'colored women in all parts of the world' (the U. N. L. A., but from non-members as well, as the exhibition is open to all who desire to participate by sending contributions of work of their own production. The exhibition will take place the first week in August coincident with the opening of the convention and all who desire further participation should communicate with Mrs. H. W. H. G. G. G. the headquarters of the Association, 58 West 135th street. In addition to the exhibits an open air contiguous cafeteria will be established in connection with the exhibition for the serving of light fixtures and the convention. This cafeteria will be on the order of the French cafeteria with chairs and tables and beautiful plants appropriately arranged and an overhead awning, creating a beautiful and scenic effect. The cafeteria will be on the floor of the convention for four o'clock parties at reasonable prices, light refreshments and cool drinks will also be served. On the top floor of the building will be a rest room and dormitory for the exhibition to maintain the exhibits and the basement will be used as the inside cafeteria. All in all this will be a novel yet serviceable feature to the convention, and the building, with its descriptions of color, will afford a striking place on the floor. The galley and epistole to the middle-wall interesting stories that will be distinctive of this, the second annual great meeting of the U. N. Y. A. SLAVERY TO BE LEGALIZED IN PORTUGUESE, AFRICA Slavery is about to be legalized in Portuguese Africa, according to the Nation. The Portuguese government has been working to abolish slavery and a commercial concern, whose power is 55,000,000 acres, miles of territory, in East Africa. It is a district with a population of over 400,000.

CORONEL ALFREDO LORA OF ORIENTE, CUBA, VISITS U.N.I.A.MEETING AMIDST TREMENDOUS ENTHUSIASM Lady night we were honored by a visit of His Excellency, Coronel Alfred Loren, the Governor of the Provinces of Ontario and his escort. The meeting was called to order by the Lady President at 8 o'clock precisely. After the opening ode was sung, followed by prayer by the Chaimplain, the Lady President made a short address, which she introduced the Hon. High Commissioner than by calling upon the Executive Secretary to read out the names of financial members, list of same not being completed, the High Commissioner proceeded by addressing the Cuban members in their tongue. While hearing complaints from the members against the President, an announcement was made that the Governor was at the door; it was exactly 18 p.m. The High Commissioner immediately ordered the entire membership to stand and the Lady President led off with the national anthem of Cuba, followed by the Ethiopian anthem, while he conducted His Excellency and secret to seats on the platform. The High Commissioner then introduced His Excellency to the members. His Excellency, addressing the High Commissioner, said: "I was informed some time ago about the association" I was told that it is a political organization, but I never worried myself about it until today when I was again informed that a Cuban is identified with it as its leader, and that he is making fury speeches to excite the Cuban Negroes. So I decided to come here and see for myself." The High Commissioner then explained to His Excellency the aims and objects of the N. U. L. A. as follows: "Your Excellency, in voting the sentiments of the members, permit me to feel greatly honored by being in touch with the Executive Secretary of Orissa, Cuba, and we hope you will feel at home with me — I am only sorry that you came in on as while we are seriously attending to business as you may see by this book. (The High Commissioner then presented the Executive Secretary's cash book for inspection.) The President of this division being charged with misappropriation of the association's funds, and here he is standing before the bar of judgment. Nevertheless, I shall change the order of business so that you may learn our aims and objects. "The Universal African Improvement Association and African Communities League are gathering under its wings the $400,000,000 Negroes that are scattered all over the world teaching them to look upward, to take an active part in the commercial and industrial world, teaching them how to love and appreciate their own race even as the other races love and appreciate their own and finally to prepare them for the redemption of Africa, our inheritance. The next speaker was Senior Eyngio Ditt, chairman of the expected Cuban Chapter, who delivered a most eloquent speech, after which His Excellency again rose, and addressing the chair said: Mr. Chairman, I hope you are not expecting to hear an eloquent speech from me. I feel proud to be in your midst. I am a man of few words, but the words I am about to use will not be used because I am in your midst, but because they come from my heart. That which I now express is what I feel in your absence also. My playmates were mostly Negroes: during the war I fought side by side with them, my best friends were Negroes. Our friends were Negroes. Colin Negroes had risen against the white folks here, and although I know that Negro blood courses through my valet yet I had to join the whites, being closely identified with them. I did not join the whites to kill Negroes, but to protect myself from being killed by Negroes. "Your cause is a good cause; it is only in this way you will ever be respected. I again repeat that I feel honored to be in your midst. I am proud of your conduct, especially when dealing with such delicate matters as finance. You can count upon my whole help support. I shall instruct the commander of the police force to protect you, and if any Jamaican, Haitian or Cuban comes here to molest you, you have arrested. I assure you full protection in the Province of Ortega." Avoid hilarious abuses the members stood and sang the Cuban national Anthem, at the close of which "Vive, Altes Libre." The Ethiopian Universal Anthem was then sung while His Excellency and accord stood at attention. By Garrett, the Chief Engineer of the Black Star Line, and the Second Engineer, who happened to be present were presented to the Governor by Senator Eduardo V. Morales, the High Commissioner. His Excellency then said: "I have seen both ships, and I only hope you will continue to be faithful to your cause." His Excellency's visit lasted one hour and seventeen minutes. After his departure, the meeting was brought to a close. On the following morning at 11 A. M. a delegation of five with the High Commissioner Mr. H. V. Morales at its head visited His Excellency, the Governor, at the palace, after waiting a few minutes, we were uninformed by his private secretary, who witnessed, hearing us with the Governor. We were heartily welcomed by His Excellency, who said we had been pleased then like an honor in returning his visit, and so soon, and he would be very glad to do for us what it was in his power to do: he would respect the he was worthy of split, and would always give them his local support. The High Commissioner then told the Governor that according to his (the Governor's) pledge, he requested from him an authority with which he could go through the Province and strengthen the U. N. L. A. as the Citizens were somewhat timid to join the organization, as they were afraid the authorities would maintain their motives and have them arrested. The Governor acknowledged their prevention, ewing to the fact that through the former Ngro usurping there was an article in the Constitution which objected to racial division in politics. Anyway, so as to prove his *accuracy*, he would not only willingly give the written authority, but provide the High Commissioner with a police escort for his personal protection through the island and to insure the natives that the authorities are in favor of the movement. He said, "My police staff consist of coal black men, light black men, high brown and white men, you can choose his what the movement is, and what he shall expect to hear from the speakers, so he will not bring false reports, for I know you are bound to illustrate conditions among the whites and make references to the past history of white men, etc.; therefore, so long as you do not touch the country's politics you are safe." The High Commissioner thanked his Excellency most heartily and said he had no special choice as to the color of the guard as we were not especially antagonistic to any race, while our aims are equal rights and a free Africa. In the midst of our interview, champagne was served and His Excellency, after placing the glasses before his guest, on rising to drink, exchanged a glass of water with the difference in her noble part she is playing in bringing about the progress of haraaca. Senior Machado, as he treated the Governor, said, "It would be an honor and at the same time our greatest pleasure to have your photograph, so we may grace our Liberty Hall with your noble presence. Your Excellency, if you would condescend to give us one." His Excellency, in reply, said, "Since you esteem it an honor, I will not only give you my picture, but shall have it enlarged and made even more beautiful opportunity. I came from the lowly and today I am among the great, so I always strive to give to the lowly my support; give more publicity to the movement, he said, the "authority" published in the paper, and you shall soon see what progress you will make. When I was in Havana, a commission from the steamship Tarmouth visited President Menocal, and I had the pleasure to be at the palace at that time. I also visited the ship and when I returned to Galicia, would have learned of my friend, would have learned of my many of them who doubted my word that Negroes were doing such great work? You see, friends it needs more publicity, that all." We thanked the Governor and promised we would not fail in giving the movement the necessary publicity. His Excellency told us that in relating to his friends at the Club his visit to our Library Hall, and the shouts he gave of "Long Live Africa," in return of our "Viva Cuba Libre," they said to him, "You are indeed lucky that there isn't an opposing press here or you would have been caricatured as an African Negro, and had all kinds of things said about you to him. We would have been daydummed that we are lucky to have escaped. After exchanging a few more commonplace remarks and thankking the Governor for his kind courtesy, recent interview was brought to an end. CLARICE G. WALTERS Lady President of the 194 Div. U. N. L. A. Santiago de Cuba. July 8, 1921. SAYINGS OF E. W. BLYDEN, L. L. D., DEFINITION OF AFRO-AMERICAN Africans, with the prudidities and predilections, the bias and aspirations of white men. With Ideas as sir Harry Johnson has told us in his extraordinary 'History of Liberia', pittily Anglo-Saxon, and these Ideas altogether unattainable, are nevertheless the burden, the stumbling block, the opprobrium of this tation (Libertiana), which produces a condition of things under which Europe and America are helplessly staggering, and compel us to take upon ourselves and labor to solve the problems of a foreign climate and of an alien race, which, of course, takes away from us the desire, the disposition and the ability to study our own problems and their solution. Educating the Negro Some of our foreign friends complain the everywhere their education of the Negro, and the Negro's devised very little satisfactory results. The London Spectator said some time ago: You may educate the Negro as you educate your White niece till he can pass every examination that a European passes, but in educating his fattest you have not perceptibly educated his character. Acquisitions of the intellect are not the only qualities of character, the other qualities of heredity are the guiding force of a race, and consequently your Negro will never be fit for institutions that are not in some way a direct outcome of the Negro character. Biancy. Soe. per Anglo-Saxon woman was once educated and trained in the arts. The poet McKay has politely taken issue with Dr. DoBoy's editorial, tidbits in the Crisis. This gives us an opportunity to get an insight into the subject. Both gentilement are Socialists, the former like an apple to the core and the latter beautiful and attractive, but skin deep. The McKay for his outspoken truism to the cause of the "unmerged teeth" and admire his sincerity by the directness of his blow on the true objective. We know that the Rustians have always professed an intimate friendship for persons of sable hus or on whose brows was stamped the livery of the burnished sun. General Hannibal in the artillery arm of the Russian army at a time when our外战fathers were in able slavery; Pousskin, the poet of the masses; and the great interest manifested by Alexander II and Alexander III to the unfortunate conditions to which Negroes suffered both in Africa and America. That they have been great admirers of black people is further attested by the black virgines in most of their shrines. We know as a matter of fact that American Negro slaves held positions of trust during the reign of Alexander I in his various palaces. We regret to disagree with DuBois his editorial for assuming the supreme dictatorial of all things which affect black people. We thought the National Association for the Advancement of Colorated People was non-political in its scope of activities, but it looks as if all activities and tensions are striving to make it the fulcrum to eventually establish a coup de tact and proclaim that because the assumed best element of the colony is the unarmed otherwise and in touch with all matters that affect them, they are by virtue of "ex-propile vigor" the only clique that should manage and recommend itself to the powers to be who should receive their stamp of approval. Russia has been for ages the mother of Dastatin. Within the historical remembrance of many of us, the debcde of Napoleon the First remains vividly in our imagination. No greater disaster could have fallen the lot of any army set out to conquer a nation. The great fall of Napoleon was foreordained. During the present great war no sooner was it shown that Germany was weakening than Russia than it was tentatively outlined that she would be ruined. Not long ago England tried to throw a cordon of warships around European Russia and she was tenderly reminded by the new Russian masters of the people of the dark forebodings that would happen to her unless she desisted, and it was not long that the sultate Lloyd George was apprised, that to engage the Russian bear and try to drive her into submission was to be courting terrible disaster. England speedily awoke to the news that eventually found an excuse for the withdrawal of her naval forces. We have quoted these historical facts to show the learned Dr. DuBois that the Negroface needs all the sympathy that can borne hostily from any convention to wish the struggling race every measure of a just expression for deliverance from the injustices we at present mutil, and to know that our misery is shared by others, no matter how far away they may be, join us in the common tie of humanity.

And when he gets them to enclose character in wanting-character. Does not this show a lack of scientific appreciation of conditions, a lack of imagination and imaginative sympathy? I smile when I hear some Liberians express the apprehension that if they were to conform to the laws of Africa, the Constitution established by nature, they would be internationally ostracized. Why I am sure that our natural status would be immensely advanced and our international relations would be much better in Germany and the United States would be too pleased to welcome a new plant, if genuine, in the faora of the nation. At any rate, it is better to be compelled or even ridiculed for BEING YOURSELF than applauded for trying to somebody else. Tennyson who, in some respect, may be called the Virgil of England, the greatest exponent of the imperial idea, says: "The old order changen, yielding place And God fulfills himself in many ways. Lest one good custom should corrupt the world." The desire for emphatic racial distinction is a normal one, natural to man of every race and climate, Beranger, the recognised exponent of French partiotism, says: "I am quite proud to Russe Et qu'on puisse soit Anglaise Si on est Prunesse on Prusse Francaise soyons Francaise" "I like that a Russian should be a Russian. And that an Englishman should be English. If they are Prussianians in Prussia, In France let us be Frenchman. I have said that every race has a contribution to make toward the welfare of the whole of mankind that no other race can make. But no race can do this which does not see in itself an image of its Creator. A foreign poet has said: "The Ethiopian God has Ethiopi tips Black cheeks and woolly hair. The Grecian God a Grecian face An been-gyed, cold and fair." Keshub Chunder San has told us that the Christ is that we today preach in India is an English Christ. An Englishman with the customs and manners of an Englishman about him, and the acceptance of whose message means denationalization, and who, therefore, must raise hostility in every true son of India. Similar feeling must possess us. The Christ we worship must be an African and, as I have said above, the Christ revealed in the Bible is far more African than anything else. Hence all the pictures drawn by Europeans professing to represent him are false for us. The great and learned Dr. Brydon saw, with tolerably clear vision, as far back as 1808 when he delivered this lecture in lower Buchanan Grand Basse County, Liberty, and from which I have selected these excerpts that there must soon be an awakening among the Nagroes of the world, and that they must ultimately revive and reconstruct their views of many things which they had been led to believe would solve their problem racially, politically, reality, and morality. They are now taking place, and Marus Garvey, its leader and champion, has arraced the consciousness of the Negro the wild-world over as no man before or since his coming has ever succeeded in doing. We are not Englishmen, Frenchmen, Germans, etc., but Negroes of African descent in this country, and our destiny as such is linked to the charlot woods of the old grey-braided mother of civilization, and we cannot escape it if we would. MARCUS GARVEY NOT ONLY UNIFIED THE DIVERSIFIED MASSES, BUT CREATED A POWERFUL ORGANIZATION—RUSSIA'S LIBERALITY TO THE NEGRO RACE --- United Kingdom in the great work for the Exemption of Slavic stands to this day as bright as the name of Granville Sharp and the Negro Glaucus Vasa, reflects in their work for the Abolition of the Slave Trade. Dr DuBois has paid scant notice to these masters' labors in his work. "The Negro Glaucus Vasa Sharp is dismissed with about 40 words, and Vasa is unknown to the writer, for no mention is made of his work. If we are to judge DuBois in his editorial towards the unlicensed commitment by the Third International, then the learned becomes a pundit writer. For DuBois to state that he is interested solely in the "umandation of the Negro races" is indeed interesting, only it cannot be seen. In the N. A. F. F. is excluded as a member of the correction of certain native lilies that the consciousness of others beides the Negro agents adding elsewhere, and when acquiring here can not comprehend the domicile of the native leaders to the passive animals How can this association and its paid phalanx whose patriotism in such a cause must perform be dependent on their wages be able to take the firing to battle for the emancipation of the Negro race? Like oil and water, it won't mix, no matter how much you shake it together. It was said during the war that a learned writer was willing to serve in a captainship provided he was also retained on the payroll of the association. Very little patriotism and leadership at such a crucial time. Here is where we admire the personality of Marcus Garvey. From nothing and without the use of an advenary agent, he prosecuted this black man from the home of Cujo, Johnson, Gordon, Jordan and Richard Hill has brought us like Alexander Hamilton and others, from the island beyond the sea, his native mentality and courage to plan and set up right here in the home of the N. A. A. C. P. and the Urban League, an association made up of Negro people without the solicitation and participation of any white person or business, the kind that makes many people jealous. Further be it said, he was able to break the innate prejudice and superstition of Negro people; this is the work of a real leader, and in this kind, of work Marcus Garvey has Laundry CLEANING AND PRESSING has been opened for the convenience of our patrons on Lenox Avenue, at 141st Street, northeast corner.

Let us be frank, we are afraid of this man, who we not yet知ed the diversified means of our people, but created an organization of beauty in a million people. Then, again, we must present with the Negro Work, with a manifestation of ever larger than the largest, oldest, and most beautiful people in the world. This pane will eventually carry out the truth of Mackay's apologetic delivered is that splendid, awful, which few man of the race have ever seen. The capacity of the Negro for constructive work is what; Mackay's政绩 is trying to do with his dynamic policies which few saw outside, his rank can understand. He is cleaning the ranks from scars both in america and in the West Indies) persons in whose veins the effect of British environment holds strong and cannot be the immutable laws of destiny pointing unerringly the only and right way. Marxs Garvey's propaganda is the most effective that has been brought before the Negro for the thy day. The school that shows up spiritually wherever the association manifests itself as shown by the opening of schools, laundries, building up a large hall in the great city, and the various avenues of industrial pursuits as a nucleus for greater things. I admire the truth and will ever be a strong defender of truth; the man Mapra Garvey, personally unknown to me, will be remembered by generations long gone to their father's home, as a practical man who moulded in the do things, practical and useful things, giving an insight to that Ville where in the eventide of our journey, we will be refreshed and comforted.

NOTES Speech by Andrew Tucker-Glark Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: On my previous visit to your meeting I was called upon to say a few words. I compiled, but being quite in the dark and ignorant of your constitution and laws governing the U. N. and not quite prepared to speak through ability of joining it—or to the methods and advantage attached to the organization—as I should have liked to have done. At the previous meeting there was a speech from one of the speakers—full of a certain kind of sentiment, both vindictive and hurful. Certain things were said and espahished that were in no way connected with the subject we all assembled, to discuss. Now, Mr. Koehler, if such sentiment is going to be allowed expression in these meetings, it will not only be detrimental to our institution from the oppose's point of view, but will keep a lot of silence and right-thinking colored men away from the meeting: who otherwise would be only too willing to come. I should like to say, however, that it was a fine sight to see so many colored ladies and gentlemen assembled in one room, all eager to unite in one common cause, also that I was greatly impressed with the sincerity and heartfelt sentiment expressed in the majority of the speeches. That sincerity is a happy sight for the organization; it makes manifest that we Negroes realize that if "we are to have anything" or "or to get anything" we must get together and get it ourselves without relying on someone else to get it for us. Our praise, and very great praise, is due to the president, Mr. Warda, as the prime move in this movement here in England. It is at Mr. Brown said that Sunday: "a most adaulous thing to attempt." I for one agree with Mr. Brown on that point. It was authority of the greatest kind and his courage is to be admired by, all. At the close of the previous meeting Mr. President handed me a book of the constitution and laws governing this organization. I have read them and viewed them and although there are a few classes and rules which I personally think could be amended to the benefit of the organization, fundamentally it is one of the most generous educators ever put on behalf of the Negro race. And every man and woman with a strain of Negro blood in them should certainly and yet get into the organization as quick as possible because it is a something we Maratha want more than any race inhabiting the globe. Its institution of our own way, and because it is an organization, there must be, and possibly will be invariated it will do away with that feeling about the Negro race. that we are better than African Americans, just because himself better than the American Moor, the American Negro he is to superior to the Black Indian Negro. That dealing in a race should not quiet. That sentiment in us Negro is more derisitable to his progress as a race than we imagine. If we have that feeling of caste in our mind, and practice it, how can we grumble if it is practiced against us by the opposite race? There is a predicteo against us on our outside. Therefore we want to find and realize that we are children of one great mother—Witchcraft. I believe that the Garvey movement was and will continue to alter that sad state of affairs if we, who are trying to help, will only use common sense. Race prejudice has nothing to do with this movement. We are trying to get a great something to ourselves and that is unity. There has been and always will be race prejudice. The more a race progresses, the greater the prejudice against them. But so long as you are advancing along an honorable and legitimate path, let your enemies say what they will, words cannot really hurt you. We are suffering now as a race because of our disjointedness; vicious things have been done to individuals that people would not have dared to do if we were a solid body. UNITY IS STRENGTH. Therefore, by uniting for our mutual benefit in the U. N. I. A. I cannot think of anything that could stand the full force of our weight if we had occasion to use it. Unity in this instance will not only mitigate race prejudice but will create respect for us when the enemies of our race see that we are banded together for the betterment of our people, they will respect and appreciate our efforts. The Negro race united is capable of doing anything in this world that any other race can do. Can it be said that the builders of the Pyramids and Solomon's Temple were less capable than other races? The first to till the ground, the first to make the laws that govern us today. The first to navigate the seas and the first in every art, science or craft that the world knows. We are a great race of people, inferior to nome. Sour the pages of history and we find that we are the offsprings of the progenitors of the present-day civilization and all the culture that goes with it. Negroes the first priest, kings, rulers and soldiers. Negroes Pharaohs ruled over the land of Egypt and Negro Caesarea waved the destiny of Rome, and it is known that our ancestors resided in palaces with golden domes, when the ancestors of our oppressors dwelt in caves and grass huts. But that was a long time ago. We were united then. Many moons have come and gone, many nations have weakened and fallen and we have been one of them. We fell, we have lain dormant until the U. N. I. A. has come along to revive us. The Carney Movement is put forth to reclaim for us that which is our own land—and every person with Negro blood in their veins should do all their power to make it a success. If we don't do these things ourselves there is no one who will do it for us. I feel sure that the greatness our ancestors brought to our race in ancient times we can, with a united effort, restore in the twentieth century. Negroes rank among the greatest in the annals of the world. Merriman, son of Ham, founder of the world's first religion; Manchulidick for religion; Diocees for philosophy; Booker T. Washington for intellect; Hamibal for war; Pushkin, the Shakespeare of Russia, for literature; Samuel Coleridge Taylor for music; Douglas for statesmanship; Henry O. Tanner for art, and, last but not least, Paul Lawrence; Dugbak, the Negro poet. These men have shown the world what the Negro can do in art, science and craft. And Marina Garvey, with our help, is going to show the world how the Negro can do the greatest thing of all, that is to become "his own master"—how to get, that which is the Negro own—Africa. In conclusion, I may say that I am greatly enthused over this organisation and in my eagerness to help it, along with as much as to interest other Negroes, to join the cause, I may have taken up a little more time this afternoon than is allowed. If I have, Mr. President, I hope you will excuse me. But this is a movement that should interest every Negro man and woman, and those who will not understand the greatness of it must have it thrust upon them. This division is in its integrity, it has got to grow into an adult, and you, ladies and gentlemen here today, have got to help it on its way to maturity.

Glashen of Key West Division In spite of the heavy rains that had been showering in the Metropolis of Cuba for the last two weeks, especially on the day in question it was very pleasing and commendable to note that on Wednesday night the 13th inst. a goodly number of New Negroes gathered in our Liberty Hall, willing to continue the fight for the Negroes' universal rights. The president being absent, an unusual circumstance, the meeting was opened by the first vice-president, who, after welcoming the audience and congratulating it on its loyalty in being present during such disgraceable weather, asked the Rev. T. C. Glashen to preside. Much praise is due those members who helped us to make the program as enjoyable as it was, especially to the ladies, among whom were Misses Getfield and Hall, whose two recitations received much applause. The feature of the evening was the address by the second vice-president, Sr. Francisco Gómez de Beilen, who took for his subject the Irish question.

"The Irish," he said, "have been fighting for many years, and today they are on the verge of gaining their liberty, and that the country will be finally entitled that would be already obtained their desires. The Negroes have been fighting for a short time. We are making progress, but we want more unity, because if 400,000,000 Negroes unite and claim their rights the day will come sooner when all eyes shall be turned to us as they are turned to Ireland today." He concluded by asking us to fight in spite of obstructions, knowing that every obstruction is a boost and we are 400,000,000 strong, the greatest nation on the face of the earth. The gentilman's address was interpreted into English by the writer, as on previous occasions. Before making the necessary announcements for ensuing meetings the general secretary called the attention of the audience to the fact that the chairman, who had been working among us for a short time, was expecting to continue on his journey to headquarters, and in behalf of the association thanked him for his good service and wished him safe voyage and continued success. This division of the association was benefited to a great extent not only by the stirring addresses made by the gentleman and hero of the race, but also by his suggestions given us for the improvement of the branch and for the number of active members made through his influence. We have no doubt but that he will always continue in the true spirit of Negroism, and hope that at no distant date he shall reap the fruit of his labor along with the other heroes whom the race has produced. The general secretary having reminded the audience about the membership drive being made, the convention solicitors and the exhibition for the convention, the meeting was brought to a close in the usual manner, all feeling the more satisfied that they had been present.

Twenty-third street and Jefferson avenue. The meeting was called to order by the announcement of our "Opening Ode." The prayer was rendered by the chapel. The presidents, M. J. E. Hubbard, brilliant remarks, which were short though spicy, attracted the attention of the audience, consisting of approximately 173 persons. He read to them the regrettable letter informing us of the sudden illness of the Right Hon. J. D. Gordon. Though we did not see him, J. D. Gordon, the house was identified by Mr. Wheeler Shepherd, who distinctly demonstrated the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities Delegue. He also made plain to the public that U. N. M. A. was from Negro, from Negro Africa against their own will, but to learn that God made all men equal, and that one was not made to serve the other. (Applause.) And that the "new Negro" has no fear, nor are they weak-kneed or cowards. (Applause.) His address was highly applauded, and the clearing remarks were: "Be strong, acquit yourself like man." The response to such an eloquent speaker was given by another "Garveyite," who is known as Mr. I. B. Curry, a young man, who graduated from Hampton Institute in 1919. He stated that it took two years to get him converted into Garveyism. He said he was once a Melton man, then a DuBois man, and finally landed on the right side, which is now known as the true Garveyism. (Applause.) He said that he, a young man, who belleva in Garveyism, will also live and die for it. (Applause.) Program was as follows: 1. Opening Ode.....Choir and Con. 2. Selection.....U. N. I. A. Choir 3.

IN ORIENTE, CUBA Be it known to the public of our fellow co-workers, that we, as a newly organized branch, are trying our last effort in assisting our brave workers for the uplifting of this great movement. On the night of the 6th of July we had a concert which was arranged separately, the Fourth being known as a general holiday. Our gathering was remarkable together places and songs which welcomed and entertained the gathering to their generosity. The concert was organized and practiced by the 2nd Lady President, Miss Hortense Hobert, and her mother, Mrs. Whithalmina Phillips. The program commenced at 7 p.m. and lasted until 11:30 p. m., when our President, Mr. Thee, N. France, gave a brief lecture on the gathering and its behavior, and also credited the 2nd Lady Vice-President and her mother for this great movement. Meeting was brought to a close by singing the National Anthem. People who want to feel sure their electrical work is done right and at the right prices come here.

U. L. A. is concerned. A branch of the Black Cross First Aid Society was organised in this division, chartered by D. W. Allan, president of the division, about eight months ago. It may interest the readers to know that though we have not received full particulars from headquarters as a branch unit, we will well under the leadership of our director, Mr. D. P. Allen, while we anxiously await the long expected Deputy Lieut. Fredrika. As an auxiliary to the Colon division of the U. N. L. A. we have augmented it numerously and thereby the various instructive entertainments and other pumorous activities. Among the activities special mention must be made of the organizing of a branch of the B. C. F. A. B. in Gatun Canal Zone, on Sunday, the 8th June of 1983, where the skies were covered with dark cloud, we had a alivery at Gatun. We embarked on the 11 'o'clock train at Colon and after 10 minutes' run we disembarked at Fort Davis station, where we met the members of the Colon Boys Institute League. From here we marched, accompanied by the band, to Old Town, where we stopped for a while and advertised our meeting to be held in the Y. M. C. A. New Town. On the march to Old Town we received first aid was quickly administered and she revived. From Old Town we marched to the T. M. C. A, New Gatun, who boys and nurses, senior and junior, refreshed themselves. This scene would remind one of a detachment of soldiers recreating themselves after a hard days march. At about 3 o'clock the meeting was held. It was a meeting that quoted that general secretary, Miss G. Hayne, was unavoidably absent. Miss C. Richards acted. Among those seated on the platform were mrs. D. E. Alen, director of the B. C. F. J. B, and first vice president of the Gilton division of the U. N. L. A.; Mrs. A. Cream, nurse and lady president of the U. N. I. A., Colon; Mrs. M. Boty, head nurse; Mrs. Taylor There being none other available, the director listed as chairman. The pro- gram was as follows: Opening code of the U N J A. A. opening remarks by chairman; song, "Ownd Christian Stoldora"; by audience; address by Mrs. S. A. Cream; address by Mrs. Taylor; a song, "Work for the Lord" by Martin Marcus Garcia's Call." The wooden structure that characterizes the Y. M. C. A. building shook from the thunderous applause given this young chionistian. A piano selection by Miss M. Stewart; a solo by Mrs. M. Betty; address by God of the Colony. Colonists Institute Lease. The program was much appreciated, and while it was remodeled the secretaries were kept busy. At the end of the program the newly-made members came forward by order of the director and took the place by the director, Dr D E. Allen. The meeting was temporarily adjourned and we met the newly-made members and a copy, to Old Gatun where our meeting was continued in open air. The song of this section showed an enthusing. The program was repeated, during which time the secretaries kept so busy enrolling members, that the membership cards were examined and temporary receipts were used. As we had Colonists information could not be given the new members, as time would not permit came. A secretary and treasurer was appointed from among the new members. We promised them to return at an early date when all information possible would be given to Mrs. S. A. Cream. Married to Fort Davis just to take the train, arriving at Cefon 7 p.m. just.

DRAWING ROOM CONCERT AT MARCANE, CUBA DRAWING ROOM CONCERT AT MARCANE, CUBA Since the Marcane Local Branch of the U. N. I. A. and A. C. I. has been organized, no entertainment has taken place. However, a Drawing Room Concert came off on Monday, June 30, precisely at 7 p. m. Liberty Hall was filled with officers, members and friends to witness this Drawing Room Concert. This concert was made by the Lady's Ensemble. It was composed of five tables, each decorated with red and cream roses. The tables were composed of the following indices:—(1) Miss Ruth Robinson, Lady Vioe. Pres and Mrs. Maud Emma Moodie, Lady Associate Secretary and Miss E. Grimtsch; (2) Miss Irene Richards, Lady Prea; (3) Mrs Maud Stephenson, Lady Trea; (4) Miss Iris Stephenson, one of the Black Cross murals. The programmes was composed of speeches, dialogues and a few plays. Refreshments (cakes, creme, melons, sweeten, etc.) were served by the different ladies to those who sat around their table. Much credit is due to the ladies of this division who contributed to a success, but more so to Miss Ruth Robinson, who organized it. Miss Robinson is a hard worker of the U. M. L. A. and all of the Ladies of this division are just crazy to be hard workers so as to make our redemption a future success. HECKIAH A. GILROY, Executive Secretary, Marcane, Cuba.

Protest Against Hindered Immigration and Advocate Labor Union In British Guinea MONITERAL. July 18.—An entertainment of a unique feature was held at the home of Mr. J. Carter, 211 William street, on July 10. Mr. A. A. Thorne, M. A., who is in turn principal of Middle School, financial representative and member of the Legislature of British Guiana, was the guest of honour. Mr. Thorne was delegated by the people of British Guiana to go to London and confer with the Colonial authorities relative to Hindoo Immigration and the Lebo Union problems. Enronte on his mission it was our privilege to hear Mr. Thorne deliver an address on the "Growing Renaissance of the University of the Republic." Speaking for nearly an hour Mr. Thorne advocated the importance of professional West Indians returning to their native land and help improve conditions under which their compatriots exist. His address was well received. Mr. A. Crosa, law undergraduate of Dalhousie University, Halifax, offered a lecture of ceremonies, and in a discriminatory manner introduced the guest of honor. Mr. Crosa is an impressive speaker. Mr. E. D. Vaughan, one of Mr. Thornes's pupils, paid a marked tribute to the speaker. Mr. Vaughan's effort was masterly in style, brilliant in execution, comprehensive in application, and memorable in recalling a pleasant reminiscences of halcyon days under Mr. Thornes instruction and draw an impressive comparison between the West Indian Hindoo problem, the California-Japanese land question and the Pacific settlers' indifference. Mr. Vaughan affirmed his views. Mr. Vaughan landed in Hindoo in the West Indies, and especially in British Guiana, is a manace to the economic status of the tropics. Mr. Thornes's mission, he concluded, is a direct challenge to the native worker to evoke racial response to the exploitation of the gathering applauded repeatedly. Mrs. Clara Dehields moved the vote of thanks commendably. The master of ceremonies complimented Mr. and Miss Carter on their splendid efforts in making the evening a memorable tribute. His eulogy was recalled to Mr. Joseph, a fellow student. Mr. Thorne was very pleased, and expressed his ardent admiration of the warm estea and cordial welcome which was so signally displayed. He was a fine teacher at Miss Anne Dedhizbia, Dovin Carter, Alice Hall and Bastice Govin; Messra McCray, Belfast, Scales, Agard, Westmoreland, Dr. Holder, and Mr. M. D. Vanghan (graduate of Middle School) and Mrs. M. Glarke. The revival of refreshments followed by the program, closed the evening's delight. CHARLES H. D. ESTE. $6 McVail street. CAPT. E. L.

On Tuesday evening the Captain most brilliantly outlined the program of the U. N. L. A. telling of the things accomplish, since his organization, the benefits the race derived from it, and of greater things to come. On Wednesday evening he took for his subject "Has Garvey Made Good?" During his address the speaker, "I have been a curator, the hold of conditions during the occasion of the movement, saying: 'At one time the Hon. Marc Garvey was in a position to put his hands in the coffers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association without having any knowledge of the cause because of the bigness of his heart and the honesty of his purpose, and also because of the fact that this movement was founded by him, not for self-aggrandition or the benefit of a bishop, but for the benefit of a congress of Negroes from the ends of the earth and held in New York City the greatest convention of Negroes ever held, at which time plans were formulated for the government of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. "Has Garvey made good?" "Yes!" explained the audience. "Well" went on the Captain, "at that convention Mr. Garvey again showed the greatness of his mind by stepping down from his high position and helping to elect the new president, Dr. David Rovis, Liberia, Nigeria. Potentiales of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Has Garvey made good?" "He has!" yelled the audience, amid deafening applause. Truly "Daddy" is a stagger of rhetoric and has made a扮好 for him self in the hearts of the people of Samoa. He wrote a book that he instilled in the audience. He led the League and the Black Cross Nurses, and impressed the hope that they will be doing great work soon.

WILSON, New York United States of America gathered the grandchildren and had been removed and the children in some cases armed rapidly. A program, has been arranged for the children, which in very encouraging, as both young and old folks and adults in sitting and dancing to recitations and songs, canably participate in the dance. A solo by Ivan Breworthette of 18 bright streets, entitled "Work With A Your Might, Bears," was especially well-received, as was a recitation by Charles P. Davis, entitled "We Are Reddy for Airbirds Shore." These, two youngsters are, the stars of Toronto and, I pray, God to the children, have great promise of developing the children our movement demands—boys with intelligence. Conditions in Toronto are more tense bright, and quite a few of our men and woman are unemployed, with preoccupation. Hence things are a bit quiet, but it is our motto to support the red, the black and the green. We intend never to let our flag touch the ground, even though we are badly crippled. I am not a man who believes in doing, even scarcifying, for others and I am willing to continue to do so in the future, but with the hope that my next sacrifice will not be like the first, but will be a blood sacrifice for the extreme African Africa. Our Black Nurses. Our Black Nurses under their instructor, Dr. Myers. The U. N. L. A.

They did not play music although the thermometer registered 85 to the shade. They did not even perspire, while the other fellows had a handkerchief in each hand.

I wish to state how much I think God for this God-sent movement; it is the greatest institution on earth, for the state-statement, because it is the God all of the praise and honor, be given. You're faithfully. July 19, 1921. U. N. I. A. AND A. C. L. Carryamyl at Bogerville On Monday night 12th afternoon the secretary, Mr. Martinez Santos and president, MD. George Fraser, of the U. N. I.

It is expected to organize a meeting there on or about the 5th instant. Georgetown Branch Owing to the incessant showers last Sunday there was not a large attendance at Bourda Green, nevertheless the chaplain grazed the opportunity in length. A wood industry during the past week has been the president's attitude, as it is the intention of the association to help the unemployed male members and in process of time our girls who are also members will be intended to keep them in the way that leads to virtue.

Dr. Eason's speech was the talk of all Pittsburgh. The members of Diffrion No. 61 love and respect doesn't mind living or dying for the red, black and green. The John Wesley Choir, known as the best choir in Pittsburgh, was invited by Mrs. P. Hill, our lady president, to perform six of her songs in suspensions were aptly rendered.

Sons: "From Gwendell of May Mountain." Remarks by our president, Rev. J. Sleepy. Master of ceremonies, Mr. K. Tyler. The black sons and daughter, of Pittsburgh are sticking to our motto: "Oh God, the aim, the desire." All who participated in the program performed well their parts. The University was struck by the andriadise, which was dismayed by Taylor. Vonnie frataglia. RAVEN, BIRNE, IAN, L. A. The more severe Defence of the U. N. L. A. and A. G. L. B. had, some members at an assembly on Wednesday friday and Saturday evening 1st and 11, in Quite a new dwelling and friends attended. The supporter was opposed by some members of the Mountaineer and with the official prayer of靠 by the chaplain, Rev. Grosvenor.

Eight Klu, Virginia College expressed his pleasure by being with the New Haven Division of the U. N. K. E. and A. C. L. The audience was completely spellbound under the glow of the audience video. The audience an allure: Officers, Members and Friends of the New Haven Division of the U. N. K. E. and A. C. L. Utilization and co-operation is very much needed among our race of people. The Klu Klu Klu Klu that are the Negro students to contend the contests of Klu Klu Klu Are they giving, to protect their children and themselves, or are they sleeping? By the birth, of God and our God-sent leader, the Hon. Marvus Carvery, the abolished Klu Klu Klu, pours out examples of the white race, and traitors of the Negro race. (Applause.) The U. N. L. A. is the greatest movement in the world. It means absolute freedom, not oppression, and I wish to emphasize the fact that it means freedom here in America, for the U. N. L. A. exists in order to combat, the spirit of slavery in America, and to contribute the Negroes of this land, and to assure them, even right, privilege and opportunity, to which every citizen of the United States is entitled. (Applauses) Negroes Have Been Slayed, so long that they think nothing good can come from Africa. They are ashamed of their mother country. Why have the foreign countries colonized Africa? Because they know that it is the real reason why the United States is so much the other country problem. Negroes, wake up! We must reclaim that which balances us on the just-other country, Africa. (Applauses) - Inspired by Katherine Scanlonbury - Marvin Harvey, Harvey said: Mr. president, officers, teammates and friends of the College division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African American League, again it is my good fortune to find myself in your make this evening. I address you at a public meeting in Colon. I want in the short time left me, to explain more fully the aims and objects of the K. K. A. and the A. C. L. I am expecting the man and women have in this building to have a certain amount of intelligence, and that they will understand the objects and aim of the W. M. T. A., and the C. G. L. I have explained it to them. After these we must exercise patience with these people, and we have three hundred years of experience brought us here and kept us in darkness. So we must try now to招呼 the place that we have best. When we first started this movement, some people regarded us as a joke. In New York they said that I was a easy tool. Nevertheless I said to myself that the time had come for the Negro to have a flag of his own, a government of his own, to rule his own people. So it was necessary to have a programme. Some of you may laugh at our programmes and regard us as national. Two years ago in New York he had any alteration to us. When I used to speak, even the policeman was the best, never notice me. But today the government is the world. The policeman is the mindless of the programmes in the U. N. Z. A.; the programmes has 'pushed out' of the blacks the policeman now, and it is now in the hands of the soldiers. This will understand that the U. N. K. A. programme is nowhere different from that of George Washington when he attempted, about 140 years ago, to form his own government and throw off the British yoke. He laid the foundation for a Republic which has become the greatest in the world today. I am determined that with the help of God that I will in a situation for the Negro race. If necessary with my blood I will will myself as a sacrifice. I quote the words of Patrick Henry, "Give the liberty, give me death." Danielson we of the U. N. L. A. make no apologies to the world for giving for the gold which is to release U. N. K. A. himself. Everyone against the Negroes in the United States, and all countries in the World Indies, in the U. N. K. A. and the United States, it is always color and then prejudice. If I am black and you are brown you think that black is better than white, and if you are yellow and I am brown you think that you are better than the brown man. What I think to the U.S. I. I found the baptismal site of the area. The American Stage against the West Indian Mara, and vows. When I knew the misdemeanor of the Negro Killer, I knew his life after death of Johnny as die in the altar. Even here in Colonel and Thomas J. is the same question, the same helpless predicule. Jamison against Barbadian, Barbadian against Trinidadian, Trinidadian against Demeridian, etc. Now where do you think you are going to meet? You are going to get married. When I entered the U. N. would you be surprised? No, I would. When Barbadian Wives are making remarks at each other, if you knew to go into Liberia, then indeed you will and the American Stage and the West Indian Stage sitting also by wife with one son, sitting towards a free and restored White. I would like us and women there in service to, their country, service to their race in various fields of industry and achievements by invasions, they and for the country and for their race. These men come from the common hard of the maseen, and in recognition for their services were given titles and land and raised to the nobility of the British Empire. And what is true of the Englishman is also true of the Frenchman, German and others. But when you question the aristocracy of the Negro you find that because he wears a pair of patent leather shoes, a fine suit and a pair of eye glasses and spends money that belongs to the other fellow he tells you that he is an aristocrat. (Laughter.) The aristocracy of the Negro is inangible and misleading. You must first think of the benefit and believe in the utility of your man, not when you steal from the other fellow. You must first give your services to and for Africa, and when you have tackled the openey and fought, your Waterdeen will not only make you an aristocrat, but we will make you a duke and an admiral. We want men not only in naval affairs, but in scientific affairs. We will not give you the St. Georges cross, but the cross of Africa. There is an opportunity to be a true aristocrat of Africa and not foolishness. Who made you an aristocrat, Mister? Any Negro in here can steal the money and become an aristocrat, but some of you are too honest. Who is an aristocrat, who is too honorable to steal and will give his services to redeem Africa. Ladies and gentlemen of Colon, I want you to realize, that you are living in a serious age, a practical age, not an age of fun and tomfooolery, in an age of ambition, and we on the ground, in the good mood to make the most of your opportunities. Observe the achievements of the white man. I want you to understand me carefully here in Colon. I am not against the white man. I am against the man's injustice that he metes out to me. There are many things in the white man to admire, and to initiate the spirit of national pride. Touch the Englishman anywhere about the spirit of his race and he will stand up and die in defense of his empire. Touch the Frenchman and the American and they will all die in defense of their countries. Touch the Negro and there will be no responsive chord. He dies for no flag or country that is his own. But soon 400,000,000 Negroes of the world will demand what is in their own hands. The question is not what the other fellow will do, but what you think of yourself. If you want to the other fellow to pass you to the palm of your apprehensions, you will wait until noonday. Eighty-three years is long enough for me. I can wait no longer. The question is if the other fellow shows no indication of doing anything for me, I am going to do it for myself. He gives a comparison of three boys going to school at the same time. One named Lloyd George, a white boy; Ini, a Japanese boy; and Marcus Garvey, a Negro boy. They went to the same university and studied the same political science, and graduated with the same honors the same day. Premier Lloyd George went to England and is now a prime minister. Race. Premier Ithw went to Japan and is looking out for his race. And Marcus Garvey is just starting out for the freedom or his race, with 400,000,000 strong. Human-Justice Continuing, he said that it is better to be late than never. He had no animosity against. Premier-Lloyd George or Premier Badin, but he has to love himself—when you love someone, because you love yourself, someone. He believed in human justice, that man has the right to live and enjoy the beauty of God's creation, the land and the sea. The U.W.I. is absolutely no time to sport away. They were caring with this proposition. They did not dare to wear on the last day before development, they must do so at last. When the white man went to want to leave Africa, Negro went along with him and his servant, servant. What do they say? Nothing. If you are able to survive the hardships and difficulties of three hundred years ago, you can have confidence in this Negro race, and what we can do by you by the assistance of the V. N. L. A. and A. C. L. The earl object that I have in life is to redeem Africa, and my God will let me look from his throne on high on the beautiful Republic of Africa. Africa can only be won through sacrifice, through blood. All of us will not die, but the Indian will not die of the world. I will die for the aim, and objects of the V. N. L. A. and A. C. L. and in the cause of Africa; whether I die in jail, on the gallows, or by the guillotine. in whatsoever way I die, I will die for the freedom of Africa. I appeal to you man to give your support to the U. N. L. A. ; the propaganda that we teach is not mere sentiment; death may be the price of leadership. Look at the long line of marytia. Let us take the history of Ireland; for the last seven hundred years Ireland has been bleeding for her freedom. I repeat again the words of Patrick Henry, the parrot, "I care not what others may say, give me liberty, or give me death." I appeal to you men and women of Colon, and members of the U.N.L.A. and A. G. L. There is room for you if you desire to be patricio, if you desire to be nobile, and to be an姿态 to be noble, and to be an姿态 to tonight will cause you to rise to some high and honorable position for the freedom of Africa. Out of this assembly there may be a future President of Africa; take courage and go forward, there is something for you to do. The British, the French and other countries in the world, N. L. A. will give the ambitions Nero a chance. Providently, for good or ill, they paid me the honor of making me the first Provisional President of Africa. You men and women of Colon, may God cause you to catch the vision of a free and redeemed Africa, and be of service to self. You must not worship color, because I don't care what color you are, whether you are white or black—you are sons of God, and you have a right to a place in this world. What is color? It is only skin deep. Can color make you a man, a gentleman or a criminal? I have seen white men and women that were good for nothing. Here stands a Negro who is black, and who would never care to change it. God made me for a purpose. Continuing he said that the stammer Antonio Maco will be coming to Colon in seven or eight days' time. We can't all go to Africa; we will leave the black-white man, the brown-white man, the black-Negro when we go to Africa. I would rather be in Africa with my Prince Albert coat-no-we, that time we will have another name for the coat (laughter), my gold-headed cans, my bill top, walking down the African boulevards than anywhere else in the world. Let us not lose hope; have courage, there is great work in store for us. Let me ask you to do the best you can for the Black Star Line; buy bonds in the Liberian bank; buy a doctor in Africa we will need doctors, lawyers, presachers and teachers also. By that time we will also have a language of our own. The remarks of your third Vice-President, A. Rald awhile ago, seems to me to be that he quite understands the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. and the A. C. L. and he has seen the vision of a free and redeemed Africa. When Nahh was here there were few people in this world, and we were to mount Ararat, but we want a thousand to take us to the West Coast of Africa. I want you to understand that shipwrights have gone on strike. Therefore, if you want ships you will have to get your own shipwrights, and you can only get them with the slightly dollar. I trust that I have explained our aims fully this evening. He then called on Mr. J. Wilhite, the shipwright, to subscribe to the Liberian Construction Loan, and had married the Silver Cross of African Redemption. And pledging to his breast the Silver Cross, he said, Mr. Wilhite, I pin to your breast this Silver Cross of African Redemption as a token of your loyalty to the cause of African energy. Wear this cross of African redemption, and when you walk through the river, you will see the younger generation will look to you, and, by this token we will know that you have done your duty, and by this mark you will be known as one of the sons of African freedom. DELRAY FLORIDA U. M. L. A. In Delray, FL. "Oh yeal! We want the whole world to know that we are followers of Marcus Gheary, the Moses of ours today. A few months ago, into a representative of the U. M. L. A. aim to our city and tried to organize a division. Misses of us came together, but the minister of the association—the professional men, knotted it so that the majority of us gave up them, disbanded. But thank God for our work, a strong, caring team, as Organizer K. R. Clark. He decided to our city July 11 and proceeded to show to organize a division." Misses of us organized a division and sent them to the world to work. We are so numberless, so weak, so many people, so many people, we are now of nearly the same age and should be our city's representative. WELFARE OF THE NEGROES CHAPTER I The Morning Long Premiere BLUELIFELAND, Nicaragua, June 12, 1911.—The traveler on his arrival at the Stiff finds himself before the wide- spreading waters of the lagoon of Bluedefield, provided by nature for mitigating the heat of the vertical sun of a tropical region. Bluedefield is distant some four miles, as approaching the eyes of the visiter, the suggestive of magnitude—of a city within 6 garden; the traveler set on shore finds himself surrounded by narrow and repugnant streets. The Negro-Indian population fails to realize that farming lands are the greatest wealth-producing, property, and for him to keep ahead the prosperity with the other. Central American republics are the most scientific and agricultural education; and the managers of the banana companies and owners must have more regard for the welfare of the Negro people of this section. Along with this intelligence and industry must go, of course, a sense of right, justice and liberty. By as much as the Negro-Indian people can assure that through the works of the U, N, L A, there will be a success. ```markdown ``` are between 6,000 and 1,990 feet. The Segovia River, which forms part of the northern boundary, with Honduras, flows eastward to the Atlantiques, near Cape Gracias a Dia. The Rio Grande flows into the same sea near of Honduras, and the San Juan River forms part of the southern boundary. The Negro settlements, which lie between the East coast, with thousands of square miles contain a world of wealth, which lines of latitude and longitude, or the area they embrace, but finally indicate. When we turn to the study of our material resources you will find that no other of the Central American countries has such a marvulous combination of wealth-creating possibilities. Now, I ask the Negroes of this section what one thing, more than any other, has represented and industrial prosperity of the Negroes. There can be but one answer, and that in selflessness, and the absence of a leader, in times heretofore, like our Honorable Marcos Garvey, provisional president of Africa, that land which was feloniously taken away from our forefathers by England and France, holding a Bible in one hand and feeling after gold in the other. But there is something very interesting to know that the Negroes who hold possessions in African food, drink, and religious progress; it meant metallic value, and the Negro souls were converted by the white man into sterling or pounds. If there ever was a time for the Negroes of the scattered millions to rouse themselves and exert every ability, this is the hour for them to claim the librarians; should we dure wewre blindly surrender to the enemy, me, you scattered millions and you Jamaicans; who so love the kings and queens of the British kingdoms or dominions; answer me, you coward, who only think of oneself in this hour of trin for the fallen race. The U. N. means & world-wide proclamation, extinct since the four corners of the globe, calling the Negro man and woman to duty. A most remarkable feature of this movement is the part that in the different countries individuals are moved upon, almost simultaneously, to study the welfare of the fallen race of 400,600,000, and yet many Jamaican Negroes in this little town of Blundells are calling themselves British subjects. You are Negroes of Blundells, and you native of this city, section answer me: What are you waiting for to fall in line? What are you doing? You Jamaicanes of this situation, who only sit and watch the situation—you have yet to learn that the main amenities of the scattered millions of the fallen race are those who will give a helping had to this worldwide race for liberty. Do not betake yourself in this high notion of the Englishman, the preservation of his civilization, which do not involve the salvation of the Negro. Why should a Negro call himself a British subject when his vote in State affairs is an insignificant quantity in the political equation? The Negroes of the British West Indies have absolutely nothing to do with State affairs. Answer me, you cowards, who can only upon projudices. . . . Nevertheless label that the characters of nature were wise to enable to enough to see and reason since the condition of our nature binds us to a strict law and narrow limite. I have to reduce matters to its utmost simplicity in viewing the world-wide situation so as to give vitality to our laborors for liberty for the scattered millions, which will be real and perfect instead of the sham attempt of liberty which is dispensed to those nations of today who hold possession in the Fatherland, Africa, and believe that because they happened without any choice, their own to be born with a white Lord loves them better and thinks more of them than he does anybody with black or darker skin. But I want to say that all-wise Providence has made the white and the black man co-inhabitants of this same globe, and they cannot escape each other, and it is for the same reason why race fraternity should exist. And I should say that the man who does not admit and live up to the fraternity of the Negro is not a Christian, and his social status is very secure, and he is solitous about safeguarding it. In considering this complex matter of the scattered four hundred millions, I am not afraid to say that the white man's democracy Stockholders of the Black Star Line are earnestly request notify the Company of any change of address, since it addressed to numerous stockholders have been returned to office marked "not found" or "removed." Please notify Filling Department, Black Star Line, Inc., 56 West 135th St whenever you change your address. Negro people of the scattered millions, lift up thine eyes round about and see that all the sons of Africa gather themselves together. Africa, thy sons shall come from afar and thy daughters to be nursed at thy side (See Exak. 16:51). Dear, beloved Negro people of the scattered millions, many with broken hearts, cease your moan. The day of liberty dawns for you on that beautiful day among Africa. The white man's civilization is now reaping the bitter fruits of the seeds that were born within its borders of selfharness. The white race is paiting out under the blight of its perverted civilization, caused from unhilologic living. In considering this treatise I have found it necessary to explain, illustrate and enforce it that man is a low-protein feeder, just like other lower animals of the forest, and the so-called civilization of the white man has been detrimental to his own race, which is finding away. It is visible on the characters of nature, and those of us who are accustomed to such studies will surely indorse my ideas in connection with the fact that the white man has arrived at the goal of his civilization, have it, too, and sees it just like when we see a man throws a mist before she rises, so the future is seen in the events of the present; hence the scattered millions are on the verge of a new life. The Negro people of the world duplicate every fifty years. For instance, take Natal: In 1842 it had only five Negroes to every square mile, from there to 30; or 299 these things shall be so severe 299 400 insinuating that they have been given predated millions in the hope that the divine bring, the persecution of Jerusalem, the murder, Psyche, and also the biblical number of people who have been are rapidly descending, while another that they have, numbered the highest standard of normal health and vigor, bases are not written. The two chief of the white man and the dark of the world are at variance with the spirit of love and so compromises, because the ultimate predicts the word of God. (Kahm, 118.) The ruling civil powers of Europe feel their insecurity and danger need, and they are now looking to i: judgemental powers for assistance. Too late is the cry; the divine-hand of Providence is now bringing them to judgment before the assembled world for those possessions in Africa, etc. That system which proudly styles itself civilizing heathen, but which Presidence prompts and emphatically disowns, how manifest the absurdity of applying the name of Christianity to the seeking of wealth. Let me ask Lloyd George, who stands in his castle and peeps from the caves of the windows and views the situation, if the Prince of Peace will accept his message from the doves, will he go imploring the nations to recount his authority and grant him rights of land, of wealth or dominion? The Negroes of the B. W. I. are implored to bestir and assert the flying energies of the tottering B. D. of crown. One of the greatest national calamities and the real cause consists in the huge royalties that lessesses have to pay to landlords from whom they lease lands, etc. Those Negroes are under system of slavery that ever shocked the system of man, and from a rapid culmination of man, and into barbarianism as dark as the types which modern civilization had emerged. Answer me, you Negroes of B. W. I. cannot you see the brilliance of the U. N. I. A. marking like points of light against the dark background of the surrounding barbarian? Wakeup you Negro people of the scattered millions and do not be like sunken reefs on the course of progres; because the white physical science got the means of building barbarianism, and it is now the time for the Negroes, through social sciences and high culture, to teach the white man how to use the materials of his life, because, although he may be vexed in social science, jet remains the fact that he lauges into barbarianism. Europe to wit is a testimony of the facts that are set forth in this first part of the treaties. BELLIK & BROWN. (To be continued) HOME SEEKERS THIRTY LOTS FOR SALE ON SECOND ST. be CLAY & JAMES.
