The Negro World

UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASS'N TO SEND DIPLOMATIC REPRESENTATIVES ABROAD TO PROTECT THE NEGRO RACE Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: I write to you this week to remind you of the sitting of the Second International Convention of the Negro peoples of the world. Our delegates have come from the four corners of the world, as the representatives of the 400 million members of our race. We are assembled in Liberty Hall, New York, in serious discussion with the object of laying plans for the ultimate redemption of our struggling race. The Universal Negro Improvement Association under whose auspices the Convention is being held is charged with the duty of administering the affairs of the Convention on behalf of the assembled delegates. As President General of this organization, it is for me to inform you that the work of 1921-1922 that must be undertaken is of the most arduous kind. We need more men of ability for all branches of our organization. Men are wanted for the diplomatic field, the commercial field, the educational field, the propaganda field, and for administration work. The Convention is, therefore, appealing to all men and women of the race who have not yet arrived as delegates to put in their appearance at this convention by the 15th of honesty, integrity and purpose. We have to send out our ablest and best men to the foreign fields, especially for our diplomatic service. We must have representatives in France, in England, in Germany, in Italy, in Spain, in Russia, and the other countries, to represent the interest of our race. We want trained men for these positions. The Universal Negro Improvement Association for 1921-1922 will open up great opportunities to the ambitious, honest and intelligent Negro man and woman. For all the work that is to be done, we have to make extensive financial preparations, and it is for this reason that I am asking Negroes everywhere to do their best at this time in helping to finance the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Wheresoever you are, we are expecting you to send in a donation to the Universal Negro Improvement Association, 54-56 West 135th street, New York City, to help in the great cause of the redemption of our race and saving Africa. I am also making a special plea for the support of the Black Star Line. Our shipping program for 1921-1922 is an elaborate one, but we can only carry it out There is a great future in store for this Negro race of ours, but the future depends upon the action of the present. Let us pool our resources in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Let us for 1921-1922 subscribe at least 200 million dollars to help this organization put over its colossal program for the emancipation of our race, and the liberation of Africa. Migrants from the East and West, from the North and South of the globe are set apart in Liberty Hall, 120 West 120th street, New York city, writing new and lustrous pages in the history of the Ethiopian race. The nation was the business session of the second annual international convention; held under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania Communion Association. Africa Communities League. By these works more these daily sessions will be continued, and thereafter the masters will return to their home or give in their respective communities the benefit of their counsel, experience, more intelligence, with greater appreciation and cognition for the combination of their race and the redemption of their motherland, Africa. Representatives From Every Walk of Life. New York wintened on an unpleasant scene on Monday, August 1 when thousands of Negroes, earnest-good-minded the Harlem district, mutely proclaiming the potency, the sanity, the irresistibility of the rush of the New Yorker for freedom, pointing silently to the goal of slavery—as the teacher of the great leader who would see Negroes reign their highrisk in communities known on Tuesday morning from parading they formed to the school chamber, as earnestly bent on pooling their intelligence, to debate and protest the means whereby their great aim was realized. Assessed in Liberty Hall, HA, New grenes, from the continent of Africa, from the West Indies, from North and South and Central America, and from several cities of every State of the Union of America.

REPORTS OF DELEGATES used to read. Last Sunday we read a hit of news about Jack Johnson preaching in a church. They tried to make fun at the expense of the Negro, and we had a long bit Sunday morning also about two Negro thieves downhanging up some people there—the old time order of things, the way they were treated in new news. We gave them news to think over, so that they can realize that Negroes are not only frivolous, not only thieves, but Negroes are statement (and frivolous then and thieves are to be found in all races, as well as statement). But they gave us credit in the past for being only frivolous, thieves and bootleggers; now they have to admit we have states- Going Forward "I speak to a reporter this morning. He said. You are going to form an alliance. With whom are you going to form an alliance?" Is that not a charge from a boosterian? We have brought them to it. Let us go it the whole length. As for me, there will be no turning, back (Applause). As an African citizen there shall be no turning back for me until the Red, the Black and the Green perches on the hillside of Africa. "The interviewer asked me another question this morning. He said: Do you mean to take all Africa? Are you not going to give some portion of Africa to the United States? Those in South Africa?" I said, "No, not even that, because they got it by slave labor, by force, by conspiracy, by fraud, by threat, and, therefore, not recognize their ownership." We mean that, too, and are going to stand behind that. (Applause and laughter.) "We have come from all parts. We have come from the oppressed Southland, as far as the Negro is concerned. We have come from the prejudiced sections of the North we have come from. The prejudiced sections of the West Indies of South and Central America, the prejudiced sections of Africa. We know our grievances. We know all our complaints, all our suffering, and we are here to legislate against them. Remember, men, cowardice and weakness have never won anything in the world. (Gris ce nai*a*). If you come from the South you 'owards, you will go back to the South as cowards. If you come from the West Indies as cowards, you will go back to the West Indies as cowards. If you come from the South as cowards, you will go back to the South as cowards. But if you come as bold man, you will go back as liberators of the race. The Work Must Go On This work must be done, must be carried on, and all the sacrifice of the life, blood, of some of us. And if you are going to be afraid of the South, the family will always be, be oppressed. If you are going to be afraid of conditions in the West Indies, the West Indies, will always be oppressed. If you are going to be afraid of the oppressors in Africa, Africa will always be oppressed. But when you become bold, able to see the right, know the right, and demand the right, the world will consider you. " We want the South to understand that the Southern Nervores must be committed to it. It is all well these Southern crackers, talking about Nervores getting fresh in: North, but I want them to understand that the safety of Amenites depends upon the loyalty of Nervores in America; whether in the South or the North. And since the safety of this country depends on the Negro, whether of the South or the North—the Nervo is entitled to a vehicle anywhere. And he is going to be heard now. We was not heard through N. and N. as I was because they compromised. But they still be heard through the Universal Nervo. Improvement Association without any compromises. We must be heard, not as be baggage, but in hand, but as most demanding our rights because we are trilled to them. The question of humanity is a complex one and one that must be settled in this very age, and we are prepared to settle your war of it now. (Applause.) The South will be in�ated, the training and building will be in effect. The world is run on blue that is not. The whole world is true on blue. No idea, no edition, no man, has any divines right to take advantage of which, and if the others know takes advantage of which, it's not because he has banned you into desiring him; a better time for the Nervo—the Nervo will be the most important one to be done to the South. The North will be going to be held high in London as well as in the South. The country is at the same time as a white man, and that is what he is the most important thing to do. It's reptile in the world. We are going to be right. Not that the country is in certain places, and the country has willfully and will likely be in the South. You could not meet the American Nervores in the Constitution and you know things which Enrichment is the Constitution. We will have the industry of China. I am crazy to believe any white man telling me a thing like that? The Greatest Congress "So we are assembled here as legislators. We cannot go into the congress hall, nor the House of Representatives, nor Parliament, but we are in the greatest congress, the greatest parliament in the world. It is right here now, and in thirty-one days the world will hear from us and will never forget us after that." "As I said, I am not delivering my official speech yet, so I cannot touch on the business of the organization for the past year, and I cannot make recommendations for the ensuing year until Thursday morning, when I speak in answer to the High Potentate, but I am trying to get you in shape for the great work you have before you. Men let us come to this convention with clean hearta. (Applause.) The world of Nagropos oppresses is looking towards us for freedom and liberty. They have sacrificed to make this convention possible. They have sacrificed all their meager means, their meager earnings, and send us to this convention. For God's sake, let us be fair and just to them. You come from your churches from your lodges, you come from your different organizations, from your universities. U. N. I. A.; let us come as兄弟, sisters ready to pool our intelligence to pool our ability, and to see what we can do by so pooling to amanipate this troubling, oppressed rate of ours. As representatives of the churches you are welcome to the convention, as representatives of the various fraternities you are welcome to this convention. We want the best in you in intelligence, in interest and in purpose. This convention, I hope, will bring out the beat in the Negro. We want men, we want leaders, not followers who will malign leaders, but real leaders; and I hope that the branches will send out this year their most intelligent men, their most intelligent representatives because we need intelligence to lead this movement to the success it deserves. Why we need more intelligence than any government needs in the world. Right. Because this organisation represents a larger, group of people than any government. We represent the interests of four hundred million people and our dear government here. represents one hundred million. Therefore we have four times more business at stake. And if this government such intellectuals lead, we want super-intellect FIRST WEEK'S EVENING SESSIONS OF GREAT CONVENTION AT- TENDED BY LARGE NUMBERS WHO DISPLAY MUCH ENTHUSIASM Tuesday's Report Tuesday Evening, Aug. 15—The meeting tonight, the first of the series to be kid in the evening during the 83 days sitting of the Second International Convention of Negroes of the World, was a successful one. A large crowd, consisting of delegates, members of the congress, the enthythm and interest displayed the proceedings were an echo of the brilliant meeting of the preceding night at the Twelfth Regiment Armory. But two addresses were made: One by the Provisional President of Africa, who presided; the other by the Rev. Dr. Duval, of Malden, Maza, a delegate to the convention, and ardent sympathizer and supporter of the U. N. A. They were of a character, empathy and feelings of the audience an indication binding-fair for the success throughout the month of the convictors' evening meetings. A lavvy announced that dosens of caligraphs had been received from variably prism divisions of the U. N. L. Al. to the effect that they are celebrating the pliophanous the opening of the competition; thus showing, that the heals of Negroes the world over at that time are beating in unison. A Common Complaint Continuing, he said we have a commingled complaint for smoke at the bar of public opinion, and we are not only trying to take that complaint now, but we are going to demand address. This remark was in general that brought forth great sharing. The world ought to know, he felt that it could not, keep down a breaker, 400,000,000. Negroes. In the past we were accustomed to 14-day out of the bedgole at our maner. It was not short, with the bar, and in the end of the morning, this 400000000 in master, for we are how will the bar of our city go to the end of the day. The problem of how and to bring us a race to the same place. That problem could not be a matter of Action but we are not a child, we want no confidential, we will everything in Action was still to be done with nothing that There and other policemakers, others, could be thought the doctrines implemented by these people are only only to convey the on- THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 13, 1921 Delegates and Visitors Vio with Home People in Efforts to Make the Convention a Success and Add to Its Popularity LIBERTY HALL NOW MECCA OF PROGRESSIVE THOUGHT AMONG NEGROES, ATTRACTS PEOPLE FROM FAR AND NEAR, REPRESENTING ALL SHADES OF OPINION ON QUESTION OF REDEMPTION OF AFRICA — FAVORABLE REPORTS OF NEW ADHERENTS DAILY COMING INTO THE FOLD OF THE NEW MOVEMENT Delegates Furnish Great Array of Brilliant Speakers and Powerful Advocates of Cause—Native Africans Among the Number, One Chosen to Speak Each Night—Meetings Breathe Spirit of Race Consciousness and Race Pride gence.

Somebody is going to get hurt in this convention, it when he comes to give his report as an executive officer, if he took the confidence of the people at the last convention, it does not give a good account of himself. The Negro who deceives the Negro, when the Negro is in earnest, is a vagabond. For him you should have no respect. (Cheers.) We stood up before you here at the close of the convention last year and sworded him, but he was not a God, that we would serve you to the end without faltering, that we would serve as one master, knowing no two masters, and I trust, each and everyone will be able to give a good account of our stewardship, that we served but one master during the twelve months. You the delegates, you, the deputies from the sentient parts of the world have seen us, because we have been sent to you, and by their works, you shall know them. (Applause.) You are the masters of the situation, you have seen us, because we have been sent to you; whatsoever you know of the man, let us know. (Applause.) We are not expecting you to hide anything, or to cover anything, otherwise, you are a representative of the man, who has been dishonest, immoral, who was untrue to this cause, it is for you, let him be High President, General-President, let him be Secretary-General, Minister of Legions, or any member of the Executive Council, bring your charge against him at the bar of this convention. (Loud and prolonged applause.) Let him justify his actions; let him justify himself before this convention; and when you acquit him, it means that you are satisfied with his defense. So I expect you to come here with clean hearts, because you are not representing yourselves. Remember that, Hundreds of people in your divisions, in your churches, in your orations, in subservient their dollar, their half dollar, their quarter, their five dollars to send you in no form or shape, but with the power of God that you may do something to alleviate their condition. Therefore, I trust you will not recognize personal friendships in this convention, because, if you are looking to me for friendship to protect you, you are looking to the last man. Warna Traitors Before this convention opens for business proper, let me say, as far as the U. N. L. A. is concerned. I have no friends. I have no brother, I have no mother. I have no father. I have no wife where the U. N. L. A. is concerned. When it comes to life outside I have my friends. If you want a dollar and I have two, I will slip you one. But if it comes to the U. N. L.

Negroes hostelfore, he remarked, have been accustomed to use the Bible only in solving their problems, and, in consequence, had failed; but from now on he will use, in conjunction with the forces and weapons used by the white men in gaining and maintaining his supremacy, in fighting his way to the top. World Disarmament He touched upon the subject of world disarmament, and said that President Harding has had his job working in trying to infuse the nations of the world to abolish this plan of bringing about world peace. "Each nation is waiting for the obsolete to take the step that, by sacrificing its armament, while peace is willing to take the initiative, will withdraw from the darkest plan that we have fought to disarm now, acquiescing in Bible, and that we would not disarm ourselves of birth, of the many harmful purposes of nations of high rank, even to the zero wage." He concluded, "In conclusion, we said that, Wherever others people and other races had asked their physical power to oppress Britain, he began and now we would never have any claim to that physical power to oppress Britain." you have taken a dollar and I know it. you are going to jail, as far as Marcos Garvey is concerned. And when you are going to jail, as your personal friend I will be sorry for you and you will get a bond man to take you out of jail, but first of all I will have done my duty to the Universal Negro Improvement Association, to the poet I hold to the people and my God. If you are dishonest and your know it now, clear out of this convention, because you are going to be exposed. There is nothing to be covered here. We are going to expose everybody who has something to expose. "So that I trust you will enter into the spirit of this convention as have you used you I expose you." This is my life, my life of my face is bound up in this life. This convention is going to live through the thirty-one days during which the U. N. L. A. is going to get a filip, a new impetus to go out after the thirty-first of August and do greater work in the future than in the past. Delegation Sent to Connctional Council A vote of thanks was accorded the President-General and the Speaker-in-Convention for the excellent keynote they had struck in their opening speeches. Dr Eason moved the following motion which was carried. That the Concession to the Conventional Council of the A. N. P. Zion Church, which was then in session a few blocks away, to bear greetings from the second Convention of Negro Deputies of the World. The order of the day was then proceeded with. Delegates and deputies were called upon to address the Assembly from the rostrum, stating the complaints, grievances and expositions existing in their several localities. The remainder of the day was occupied with this business. A feature of the delegate accounts was the generality of the statement that the greatest opposition the organization had to encounter was from Negro preachers who, as one honorable member said, no longer wanted the people to go to heaven, but to keep them there a few, however, who stated in their communities the preachers had greatly co-operated with them. SECOND DAY Wednesday was occupied in the same way as the previous day. the various delegates giving very interesting accounts of the progress made in their localities, their trials and difficulties. the unemployment prevailing everywhere was given as the cause of the failure of many divisions to do even greater work. Considerable enthusiasm was evoked by the narrative of a delegate from South Nigeria, West Africa, who assured the assembly that the Negro in Africa was now fully awake, thanks to Garvey, and urged more support be given to the Black Lives Matter. A delegate told a harrowing tale of conditions in Spanish Honduras where educational and medical facilities were very bad. He suggested that the convention take steps to have a Negro physician and surgeon and a minister of religion sent there.

Delegates from the Southern States complained of the tyranny and of the antitumor of some of the, white people to the organization, chiefly through ignorance of the real sign of the organization. Exceedingly interesting was the address of an African chieftain who declared that there, were hundreds of Africans who desired to come to head quarters this month, dredged N. Y. M. A., but who could not do so, as difficulties were put in their way when it became known that they were coming to fall activists in line with the U. N. I. A. He appealed to the assembly to stimulate the buying of shares in the Black Star Line, stating that the people in Africa had produce carmarked for the Black Star Line ships, which they had begun to withhold from other ships. Members of the U. N. I. A. were supposed to know what depths and how extensively the people of Africa had been stirred by the Garvey movement. THIRD DAY Thursday was a highly interesting day. Immediately after prayer, His Excellency the President-General and Provisional President of Africa delivered his official speech. A vote of thanks was unanimously accorded the Provisional President for his "statesmanlike, comprehensive and fearless report," the assembly rising in doing so. Discussion of the report was deferred. Considerable discussion was provoked by a motion to the effect that delegates from the Southern States should be allowed to withhold their names and the names of the States from which they had come if they so desired. Several Southern delegates as well as President General expressed strong disapproval of the motion giving as their reason that the motion savored of cowardice. His Excellency said he felt that the Negro had entered with an new era—an era of fearlessness. Four hundred million Negroes should not be afraid of any Southern State. As a matter of principle and policy he was against the motion. The assembly then resumed heartia conditions in their community. Harrowing Tales of Hardship. A recital of hardships through the bad economic condition and the produce of white fellow citizens followed, punctuated with some heated expletives from members, as some protestors delegate addressing the issue that laid down in the order of the day. When the convention resumed business after the luncheon interval the Hon. Speaker in Convention announced that at a meeting of the Executive Council, just held, he had been appointed to act as Secretary General and his Excellency the President General had been appointed to act as speaker. He threwup relinquished the chair in favor of the new appointee. He then resigned the General on taking up his new office, explained, in answer to a question by a delegate, that since his return to the United States he had been informed that the Rt. Hon.

Mn Garveye Address Members of the High Executive Council, Members and Friends of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Ladies and Gentlemen.—We are pleased to welcome you to Liberty Hall tonight, the second night of the second international convention of Negroes of the world. As delegates to this great convention, you have come here to do the best you can to bring about a solution of the great problems that confront the Negro. The Negro, suffering not in any one country, but throughout the universe has grappled the opportunity, now that the world is in reorganizing, to play and important role in the reorganization. Here we are assembled here from the four corners of the globe to give expression to our feelings, to give out to the world our intentions and to formulate our wish we shall ultimately make ourselves.—Teddy Raye of the Mississippi Polytechnic Institute addressed this pavilion. It is for you. We delegated to you the information and brief about the result that we so closely related to the results presented to us each year. We will work together to world peace. Beverly said, absented himself from New York, about the authority of the Executive Council, who had visited several branches of the organization holding meetings. He had given the Secretary General some enough to report, and as he had not appeared the Executive Council, Council had suspended him from office and an impairment; by the convention, he required that statement of conditions. In the course of his remarks a college digressing, stated he had met there was an inclination on the part of the Negroes living in New York to be factions, some saying that the movement was a West Indian one. It mattered not to the people of his locality who were at the head of affairs. This matter was not matter in which country they had been domiciled—and should be supported by all Negroes. Shortly before adjournment was taken the delegation which had been sent to take the greetings of the convention to the Connexional Council of Bishops of the A. M. E. Lion Church reported that they had had a mortal dial reception and that the bishops considered to consideration to the sins and objects of the U. N. I. A. to fall in line with the movement. FOURTH DAY. Two more official reports were presented on Friday—the High Chancellor's and the Auditor General's. Consideration of the report was deferred. The Hon. Auditor General then read his report. On a delegate asking for further information re the item "46,558.20—goodwill, 'Negro World,'" the Auditor General Explained that before the existence of the parent body of the U. N. L. A. The Negro World was owned by the New York local, a branch of the organization. Under the constitution it was necessary that ownership should pass from the New York local to the parent body, and so the Negro World was bought by the parent body for the sum of $80,000, its estimated cost. Consideration of the report was deferred. It was announced that the report of the Secretary General's Department would be delivered on Monday, August 8. The order of the day was then proceeded with. A few more delegates having told of the condition of things in their divisions the lunchroom adjustment was taken. On the resumption on the suggestion of the acting spacer, His Excellency the President General, it was moved and carried that the convention adjourn until 10 o'clock Monday, August 8, so as to permit the delegates to attend the opening of the Women's Industrial Art Exhibition held in conjunction with the convention. He then introduced Miss Mary Johnson the secretary of the Exhibition Committee. Miss Johnson delivered a stirring address, in which she expressed the determination of the women to do this share in the redemption of Africa. The meeting then adjourned. become acquainted with the fact that we are meeting in convention. The world will look each and every day, expecting much from us, and we are preparing to give much to the world. Division Celebrating We have received dozens of cabelegrams from foreign divisions which are celebrating simultaneously with us the opening of the convention. They are not only satisfied that we shall celebrate the convention in Liberty Hall, New York, but they themselves also desire to celebrate at home the opening of the convention. It shows that the hearts of Negroes the world over are beating in union. (Applause.) We have had to travel a long way to get where we are; nevertheless, we are here. (Applause.)

CONVENTION REFLECTIONS In attempting to comment upon the Second International Convention of the U. N. I. A. we are like the speaker in Dunbar's popular poem, "The Party." After vividly describing the solemn and dignified opening of the convention, the spectacular and picturesque parade and the impressive and awe inspiring meeting in the Twelfth Regiment Armory, we could only say, "Child, you ought to have been there!" The addresses by the Chaplin General, Rt. Rev. George Alexander McGurie, and the Potentate Gabriel M. Johnson, Mayor of Monrovia, at the opening of the convention, were far in advance of those delivered of such occasions. The Chaplin General's address was not only a masterpiece of eloquence, but also a literary gem, which will be a contribution to Negro literature when preserved in pamphlet form. The Potentate's address was a comprehensive survey of the Negro's situation in Eastern and Western lands. It showed a statesman's grasp of fundamental principles. It was brave and manly in voicing the Negro's hopes, desires, grievances and aspirations, but also characterized by common sense, dignity and restraint, which recommends it to the judicious. It deserves to be read and re-read. Those who read in The Negro World the address of the American leader, Dr. J. M. H. Eazon, and the Rt. Hon. Marcus Garvey, President General of Africa and Provisional President of Africa, at the mammoth mass meeting in the Twelfth Regiment Armory will observe that the cause of Africa and the cause of the Negro were boldly and eloquently proclaimed by these brilliant and magnetic orators. And the perfervid eloquence of these impassioned orators was backed up by the reasonableness and justice of the Black Man's cause. But only a hearer of these two addresses could note their effect upon the audience. The calmness, self-passion and resonant voice of Dr. Eason had a psychological effect upon the audience. And the earnestness, sincerity and hypnotic power of Marcus Garvey held the audience spellbound and worked the audience into a frenzy of excitement and deafening cheers when he rose to his climaxes in describing world conditions. Now for the parade. We should judge that it was nearly two miles in length. When the auto containing Mr. Noah Thomson, of Associated Press fame; Bruce Grit, H. V. Plummer, Dr. Duvall, Dr. Paul and the writer reached 120th street and Lenox avenue, the head of the procession had gone down Lenox avenue, rounded 116th street, Fifth avenue and 120th street and was turning up Lenox avenue, thus indicating that nearly a mile of paraders were in front of us. And as far back as the eye could see there were nothing but streaming banners and marchers, thus indicating that nearly a mile of paraders were back of us. In the down town section of Harlem we noticed children of the Caucasian race leaning out of windows, standing in doorways and by the gurb stone eager watching the magnificent pageant. They had read in school geographies histories that the Negro in his native state in Africa was a naked savage, and that he had been the slave for centuries. And they saw the Potentate riding in his auto looking like an emperor, the Chaplain General looking like a Pope, the President General like a king, the American leader like a cardinal and the International Organizer like a queen. With the exception of the Potentate, who rode with the Chaplain General, each member of the Executive Council was the sole occupant of the auto, save for his body guard. The dignified manner in which the dignitaries, clad in their gorgeous and resplendent robes sat back in their autos, added to the impressiveness of the parade. Then the choir and Black Cross Nurses, who were gowned; the children, motor corps, legions and bands who were in uniform, the thousands of enthusiastic marchers and hundreds of automobiles added to the brilliance and splendor of the paraders. The Minister of Legions rode his horse like a, trained and veteran rider. New York, city has never seen a greater parade. Tuesday morning the New York World published the photos of Potentate Johnson, Dr. McGuire and the Hon. Marcus Garvey in their autos. And the Daily News published the photos of Marcus Garvey and Jack Johnson. Why? Because Jack Johnson and Marcus Garvey had put across more spectacular performances than any living Negroes. On July 4, 1910, at Reno, Reno, Jack Johnson, vanquished in faint encounter in a roped arena Jim Jeffries, the pugilistic pride of the white races. Had he been more discreet, and prudent in affairs of the heart with blonde beauties, Jack Johnson would today have honors coming to him as the world's greatestadiabut. This Hon. Marcus Garvey in the space of three and a half years had inaugurated in one organization hundreds of thousands of black men and women from every quarter of the world. He was the first and only Negro to form a great contraterality of Negroes and get Negroes together. In the summer of 1895, the press of the world recognized Dr. Booker in Washington. A leader of the black men philosopher's date leaders of the South. In the summer of 1920 the press of the world recognized the Hon. Marcus Garvey a leader of black men chosen by the black people themselves. Dr. Booker in Washington showed what a Negro could do when financed by white philiphilopists. Hon. Marcus Garvey shows in Negro could do when financial by white polls. World in the last analysis countries and rates a year to make black people industry, business, commerce, literature, art, music and scholarship. The thing for the New Negro to do is not to rest upon his carp content that his ancestors laid the foundations of the world's civilization in Egypt and Ethiopia, but to go forth and write a new page in Negro history, making himself a potent factor in the industrial, commercial, political and intellectual life of modern civilization. And it is the glory of the U. N. L. A. that it calls with a clarion voice to the Negro not to sit down and whine and complain about his unhappy lot, but using what means he has to go forth and strive to achieve, do, dare, accomplish, thus giving his race prestige, power and standing. Our space is limited and next week we will tell of the splendid industrial exhibit, which was worked up by Mrs. Mary Johnson and the High Commissioner General, and of the deliberations of the convention itself. W. H. F. HOW RACES RISE in the course of an editorial on "President Harding on Negro Education" in the June 25 issue of The Negro World we said: President Harding laid special emphasis upon education in his address at Lincoln University. He said: "Much is said about the problem of the race, but let me tell you that there is nothing that government can do is alim to educational work. . . . The colored race, to come into its own, must do the great work itself in preparing for that participation. Nothing will accomplish so much as educational preparation." EDUCATIONAL During the past quarter of a century a great deal of dissension has hinged upon what kind of an education the Negro needs. Some of the Negro's leaders and friends thought that he needed a different kind of education from what other men required. Other Negro leaders thought that he only needed the three "r's," plus mother wit and common sense. And it is a hopeful sign that President Harding recognizes the need of educational preparation for participation in national life. One of the shortcomings of that literary masterpiece, "The Souls of Black Folks," is that it was written as if the American Negro were the only being who ever groaned under the yoke of oppression. Before the days when the Pharaohs were hard taskmasters to the Jews, before the days when the Babylonians were cruel overlords, before the days when Hammurabi wrote his celebrated code of laws, before the days when Rameses II rode forth to battle, the strong have oppressed the weak. And it will be well for the Negro to inquire as to the methods by which other oppressed peoples have endeavored to rise. Take the Irish and Jews, for instance. In their battle for civic and political recognition, the Irish produced six parliamentary leaders who could measure up intellectually with England's most powerful statesmen. They were Edmund Burke, Fox, Sheridan, Daniel O'Connell, Parrell and John Redmond. If the American Negro is to be a real factor instead of a pawn or shuttlecock in American politics, he must produce leaders who can intellectually measure arms with Elihu Root, William Howard Taft, Charles Evans Hughes, Philander Knox and Henry Cabot Lodge. The New Negro needs as his political representatives more men with the intellectual equipment of R. Brown Elliott, who in a two-hour speech on the floors of Congress amnihilated Alexander Stephens, the former Vice-President of the Confederacy. For half an hour after that speech his friends and fellow Congressmen gathered around him and congratulated him. The Associated Press heralded the speech far and wide. The Jewish race has gained prestige and standing not only through producing bankers and brokers, but through producing statesmen like Disraeli and Lord Reading, philosophers like Spinoza and Bergson, and mathematicians like Einstein. We recall that Rabbi Fischer of Boston became so proficient in Belles Lettres that he was elected president of the Boston Browning Society. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of New York, by his intellectual and moral ascendency, has made his influence felt in America's metropolis. And the American Negro needs more religious leaders like Rev. Alexander Crummlen, who could grace with dignity the most famous Caucasian pulpits of England or America, or like Bishop Samuel Adjai Crowther, who so distinguished himself as aition itself. The splendid work of the Counsel General, Assistant Counsel General and other officials deserves commendation. CONTEMPORARY COMMENTS inspired by religious enthusiasm and not by patriotism, a virtue that is unknown to Mohammedan, and over lands which, from an economic point of view, are not worth a single drop of Spanish blood. THE SPANIARDS IN AFRICA Pride, prejudice to say, has long been the determining factor in Spain's internal and foreign policies; but pride, especially in this practical age and after the World War has destroyed all the political values formerly so precious in the eyes of rulers and legislators, is a poor counselor. According to the latest dispatches from the theatre of Spanish military operations in Northern Africa, the Moore have succeeded in surrounding and defeating one of King Alfonso's corps 'delle', under the command of General Silvestre and other distinguished officers, all of whom have been reported killed or, what is more probable, as having killed themselves in preference to falling prisoners of the fanatic savages. Spain, paradoxically though it may seem to those unfamiliar with her domestic conditions since the year, 1899, gained through her loss of the West Indies and the Philippines Islands, and she would gain no loss by withstanding her flag and armed forces from Morocco. This will eventually be done but not before more of her treasure and many more thousand of her garments buried in the burning ruins of La Lucha, Hayaan, Cuba. This lamentable incident will we, feel sure, provoke a vaham debate in La Cortes—that is, in the Spanish House of Commons—about the need and advisability of the Australian government, which Spain for the Australian government has perished in claimment and defending as her territory. The ministers of the crown when that debate arises will allude in rebuttal of the objection, formulated by the Liberal members of La Cortes, which constitute, of course, the chief of the defence, that their defence is no other have, so often used without convincing the masses of the people, or, the really-provocative political campaign in India—arguments based on a sophisticated appeal to Castellanos pride in the name of the history and prestige of the army, and the judiciousness of the advice of statement of that country the various animals of the Spanish army, would no doubt or manage be prejudicially affected, would be objectionable in the less serious by the establishment of the African campaign, and having the African campaign be objectionable in India, youth would infiltrate, outflush of possessions which the national treatment cost the Australian government. Obviously, no rational, sentient creature that regards itself as a man will insist on representing itself as something other than a man. Rather, people who know that they are men will state that fact every time that they have to describe themselves to people who regard them as beasts. This, in substance, is the thought that I expressed sixteen years ago in a letter published at that time in the *Journal of the American Academy* opinion ten years ago. Recently I expressed the identical opinion; supported with the historical context derived from wider experience, in an article published in the *New York This article has been misinterpreted and misrepresented by several writers in the Negro World. One of these writers, not satisfied with the evasion and misrepresentation made again, in your current issue, with an attempt to misrepresent my motives by introducing an irrelevant discussion of my personality. If the personal reference, made to me by your interview, is the foundation in fact, I might be inclined to treat them with the contempt that is best expressed by silence. But as your correspondent misrepresents me, no less than my artworks, I find that it is necessary, both for my own interests and for your request to retract the misleading references to me by publishing, the following facts: W. H. F. assignment of the priest post Crown Equestrian the scion Penitentman Joan do Pattichio, who wetted hard for the position of lavery and stood by the chair of Princess Isabel, when she signed the caress of freedom. He was an abloaf writer. I hope I have produced another essay that would show that Smith taught his assentors were living to the cave, and stone and the Naga had reached the height of civilization. JAMES G. HELLMAN, a commissioned person to be awarded, inquired about Abbey, we have to be kind and kind, because we have found a way to liberty. We have found a way to liberty, and we know it is self-fulfilling, climbing, the battle battalion that we can get to the destination of liberty. (Apotheosis). We are preparing ourselves to climb the path through the path we are going to climb on until we are, the jigs, and you know that we are going to climb the battle heights. We climbed it in France and in Flanders; we climbed it in the Civil War; we climbed it in the Revolutionary war; we climbed it in the Civil wars of Africa. Sinking for Great Britain, with the knowledge of reaching the destination that is dear, to our hearts as a surrender, striving fate. The world ought to know that it could not keep, down 600,000,000 Negroes forever. There is always a running point in the destiny of every race, in the destiny of every nation, in the destiny of every country in the turning point of the Negro, where we have changed from the old, arid, weeping, and, transformed into our brown men. We are talking in a strange tongue now, apparently to some, who we answer as laughter. White people hitherto have been accustomed to hear the Negro addicts that in the old-time, subscriber, manner, with hat in hand, a handling of the boo, a shrieking loud, a shouting, a screech, to every remark that comes from the master. But today we know no matter, we are masters of fearlessness (Apalgha). And we return to Caring as a love they found. We features, we feel that we are in all the time, stumbling-up, and our birth as rich. (A-stomach). How glorious! "day it will be" is the community will settle down 16 that out justs to fill. How glorious! A day it will be when Asia will have a right to rule them, when Europe will have a right to exercise the right to write them and what�s Kites will have the right to rule them! (All places.) The best he moves, we steire no more, and when that day comes I feel sure we will say the neighborhood of man, and features the final method of God, but until Green was his brotherhood. We are getting for that objective, the obscurous life from the end of Africa (Apollo's). In traveling toward that destination we will be deaf to all peo nobody can preach more than a Nerga Baptist preacher (laughter), and no one can fight more tacitly than a Negro pastor. (Cherera) As an example, we have the New York 18th. We can just "tat" up the Filths. Any Negro in here can tell you and explain to you some of the most beautiful passages in the Scripture. We have more graduates in theology than any other race. If you doubt it, just turn to the Bible. Negroes (laughter) and you will bear more old religion this very night than you have ever heard before. Yes, we have mastered everything in theology. We have studied the Bible from cover to cover, and, thank God, we have mastered the art of warfare. We have mastered the nature and rule the world, and we are going to follow them in their own example. Now, understand, I believe in the sword, I am not one of those Christians who believe that the Bible can solve all the problems of humanity, but I am in the place, but we are men; we are the creatures of God and we have sinned against God, and therefore it takes more than the Bible to keep up with the age in which we live. Man is able to be a criminal that you have to write other codes, besides the Bible. You have to fail so as to confine man because man is so bad. You have to build any form of correction so as to confine man because man is so bad. Man is so renamed that you have to watch him all the time. Once we could afford to watch man just with our physical bodies and salves, but today you have to watch man with implements of destruction because man is so vile. Therefore you will realize that it takes more than a few hours to get the�ول to get even when you have to handle the Bible alone to handle this human problem, and that is why Negraves have failed. You have to get something other than the Bible. You have to get the material carnal weapon, because man is too wide to be dealt with, otherwise, and he can though it be, also. Negraves's very whole life is imitate the other reasons in their methods of protection. I am willing to preach the Bible and the Bible only if President Harding is successful in bringing about disarmament among the races and nations of the world. But I am the he who held job on this life and I will be the man who will be the man who are so highly people nowadays in large groups. You may find an individual in the nation crazy, but outsides of Germany-I do not believe you have manyپکتا راکاس. You understand what T.M. mean. No nation is crazy enough to blow away the implements of the human life. I know the vile things of the other nation. To Chill that Japan is going to throw away her implements first! You are crazy. Nobody is going to start your understandable notes of them in going to want, disenabling, immiting of " ever- since the time, willing to repaint Japan in the world" or " the Alive" or " the on-the-way, because all of them are happy the other's tricks (Laughier). If you are waiting for disarmament you will wait until Gabriel blows his bown. (Laughier). I am glad that we are not engaged. This disarmament places you to have no time to think about the possible following to tell us not to accept the Bible because it has in its beautiful passages or hope. Etiېلىpla Ghail Stretch Foth's Her Hand " It tells us that " Princes shall come out of Egypt and Ethiopia shall which our her lamma unto God, and it for so other passage but that we will not disaym the Etiēlipla. So that while we are not engaged in this displacement plan we will be glad if other races and nations will disarm, because it will prevent a lot of folks dying into on (Kaughers). Let them throw away their dead lamas let them throw away all the implements of destruction, and there will be very little dying in Africa when we get there. All that they will have to do is—we will be generous enough to give them one of the ships of the Black Star. Like on which we go to Africa to take them back to Europe or back to America to take some more Europe back to Africa. So we are not against theுதிரmanight plan. Because it will prevent certain folks dying later on. I was very glarued to see the name of the banker in the parade yesterday. Only of the bankers read this way when the group have礼사들 {the hidden types, testing, and a lot of information}. I am the best one of the students have discovered the "Indian swamp" of KHIL, and you know what they make—blossom can also at you. KHIL is 35 Not only, (English) "The hidden, mysteries of Africa have been made, wonderless, or, the world." For centuries, I know two have been to active years after the 2000s. It's already an old, century-old, trying one following the popularity of "Africa" but, since that the Passage said you'd have the "top-level TV" to be observed. The children of Africa had the future with the old, planking era. We will not write "WELCOME TO KHIL" but "EXCELLENCE IN THE WORLD" for the future. We know that the old and old good that for us will be the future. I am not sure if the new year has come to the way that the students are held in the East. I am not sure if the play and music are the only things that I have to do in the future. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 13, 1921 008 if we are attempting to do for ourselves what you are in the past have done for yourself (Cheers) he learned how to use the thing. Then afterwards he started a Girl War and the degree says: "Doen I must go with the butting in for yourself (Cheers)" (white) in it the butting in for yourself (Cheers) Press la More Intelligent A Radical Channe That has been a change—a radical change—you may say in our theology, but nevertheless a new man in every walk of life is here in the Negro race. We have a new Negro theology as well as we have a new Negro teacher and the new Negro statemen; everything is new in this race today. We have changed the jackling preacher for the new theologian, and in every sphere we have changed. We have to thank the white people for what they have done for us, that is, after they have found out their mistake. You know it was a mistake when they took Negroes into slavery. It took them 800 years to find it out. They never found it our until we told them a year ago that we were coming, sharpening our swords, 400,000,000 strong. It was only that they found out that allywave was a big mistake. They did not see the diplomacy of the Negro. As I have often told you, the Negro is not seven hundred diplomas in the world. Several hundred diplomas came to this American continent from Europe; saw the land and coveted it. But at the time when they arrived here the land was occupied by a rude called the North American Indian. The white man in quast of this land exerted through which he would ultimately conquer the land and warfare; the land he started warfare; he started war against the Indians—the aborigines. This poor innocent aborigines had no sense, had no diplomacy. These foreign invaders came with guns and weapons—implement that the Indians themselves did not have. All they had was the bow and arrow. They had not enough sense not to resist the man who came with all these dangerous weapons. They started with bow and arrow and shot and abolh. Negroes destroyed him because he was able to kill from a distance. The Indian did not have diplomatic means enough to find out what the strange man had and how he used it. Because he did not have sense enough to find out that the Negroes took away his country and today everybody knew that America is the land of the white man. He tells it to you everywhere. It is a white man country. It is not a gift (Cries of Teal) Because the Indian did not have sense enough to resist him when he came to America. They went with the same trick to Africa. Admit-In Diplomacy be learned how to use the thing. Then afterwards he started a Civil War and the Negro way: "Done, I must go with you." They could not understand what willing to fight and die alongside his been. The Negro has had the world beat all the time for diplomacy. And we followed him all the journey for 200 years seeing how to make the world and use it. He loved God, fellow man and man anywhere better able to use a rifle than the men of the New York Fifteenth (London planes). Negress Have Gained Experience We have traveled a long journey. we have come a long way to get our experience, but not going to give it and not going to give it up for all the Bibles in the world. So that I thank you for your presence here this evening, the second night of our second international convention. You have learned not only the Bible, but I am appealing to you to use power, your physical power 400,000,000 strong, not for aggression, but for human justice. Other people have used their physical power to take advantage of the Negro. I pray God that we will never at any time use our power, nor will we race against the most muscled man, but we shall use our strength, physically, morally and otherwise, for the preservation of civilization. The white race need have no fear of us; the yellow race need have no fear of us; the black race need have no fear of us. Why, we have been the most brave people in the world—the most charitable people in the world, and we are going to be as charitable in the future as we have been in the past—but after we have won the freedom of Africa; we have won the freedom of Africa; we have won the freedom of Africa we will invite future President of the United States to come and stay with us for a while in the Black House of Africa. (Applause and laughter.) We when we build up our African republic we will some time come and stay with us for a while in the Black House of Africa we will come and stay with us a while in Africa, because we will send out also some of our counts and dukes and carls and peers to the foreign courts of the world. They will be stationed at the Court of St James, of Wales to come and stay with us a while in Africa, because we will send out also some of our counts and dukes and carls and peers to the foreign courts of the world. What is good for others is good for us. If the name of king sounds good to white folks, if the name of president sounds good to white folks, they also sound good to Negroes of the twentieth century. And we will light up at the second international convention, and I trust you will take it home. (Applause.) The Pan African Congress The president-general announced that the resolution to the new policy and the carried out of the previous night at the Twelfth-Rigment Armory relative to the pan-African congress, was dispatched by cable last evening to the different governments of Europe, and we had full assurance that today and tomorrow the press of Europe will publish the resolution for the information of the people of the country and of the world. We are determined to be said, "to take the pan out of the African congress, because we feel there is no need for a pan-African congress in Europe. We can appreciate a pan- African congress in Africa, or a pan, African congress in America, where 11,000,000 Neighbors live or a pan-Afri- natives live in the West. In the 2000s, 25,000,000 Neighbors live, but we cannot see the reasonable life of a pan- African congress in Europe; and for that reason and for others, we consider that it is only a subtextual. The idea of Neighbors having a congress for their freedom and inviting white folks to be the most important to the EU in Europe will come from the colonial office of Europe; that England, Italy, France, Portugal and Belgium are to add delegates to this congress. Just imagine that it reminds me of the conference of rats endeavoring to legislate against the cats and the secretary of the rats convention involved that the trade of the convention. That is a fair analogy for Dubois pan-African congress. Just imaging these little, there—400,000,000-dealing to free themselves from the wolves and lions that have best eating them up for 400 years, and now we come to this convention we are calling in a lot to possible reason for the 东欧的记者. This is a political적 Dr. Duflaud. Why, he is a distance to Harvard. (Applause.) But man, let me tell you, people sometimes play fool to be wise, especially what their pockets are at all; and see as big as the two of them in a solid body's hands. You must learn to see both the surface of things. This African propulsion of the U.S. is an exciting. Easy, pocketbooks to become size. Man is being paid handsomely to turn the tide of the Universal Negro. Improvement Association's institution, for readers' articles completely, but we have enough statement in the U.S. A.A. to see beyond a 'fans' which will, though, these, now, will have to be the same way. "If you get the books you know, we have a good and better all these softs now." The negro has developed a new, unbelievable change: it is very, and they have to come with better than a pan-African congress to reform and protect of the U.S. A.A. from the good and bad splendيدies in the way they have been performed out of the last year. In the last year, on the side of the delinquency of our families, Dr. Duflaud has designed the delinquency of our families. (whitish) in Islam. Kiss. He noticed the button in the lapel of my coat, and asked me what: that stood for I, said to him that it stands for the freedom of the Negroes of the world. He then told me that it stands for "Walk" said to him, "it is simply this: We black people are getting tired of being kicked about like dogs, and we have therefore turned, like a hunter, here to make a fight." I then explained to him, in brief, exactly how we are going to make this fight. We have a few pertinent questions to you tonight to think upon, and I want you to listen closely. I am too old now to waste any time taking foolishness, or to indulge in anything superfluous. The Honorable President-General, the High Potentate, the High Commander, the Exhaleer, the other distinguished witnesses on this platform representing leadership of this great movement, have no time to waste in nonsense. They are earnest, sincere men, bent upon helping to solve the problems of our race, and I came here to assist them, as far as in my life, to help them with the plans of the U. N. L. A. It is not a question of oratory; it is a question of facts and figures. (Applause.) Aladda by West Indians I aladda I shall now say I want the American, I want the member, I was educated under a West Indian Negro, and I understand West Indians pretty well. My father told me, when I was a boy that the Negroes of America (I want you to hear this because I have found so few colored people in this country, about it), that of the four and one-half million Negroes in this country in 1868, none could read or write; they were totally illiterate. The white people of the North were afraid to go to the South to teach them illiterate Negroes, and therefore they did not know what to do. They were absolutely necessary, to train the colored people, to teach them and rid them of their ignorance. Someone suggested sending to the British West Indies and get some of the Negroes there and bring them to this country. They were fortunate to be fortunate brethren here. This was done, with the result that hundreds of Negroes from the British West Indian Islands, teachers, lost their lives here in their affores to teach the Negroes in the United States; for these West Indians were they, that they stood and bared their breasts in the defence of the Negroes of this country. (Applause.) Some have criticized the Universal Negro Improvement Association, saying that it is composed entirely of men, the very best statement upon this phase of the movement I have yet heard (and she was in a crowd of people who were all West Indians), and I subscribe heartily to every word. Said she:—"If they want to try to lift up the people of my race and try to redeem Africa, then I am a West Indian woman, too." (Applause.) She said, further:—"If I spend my money in this organization that is engaged in the noble work of helping people in finding its place in the sun, and it should fail, I would much rather that it go down with my money with a black man at the hand, and black men as his associates and co-officers and co-workers in an organization that is managed and controlled by white men." (Applause.) These are my sentiments. I have been around the world twice, and I understand the Negro in his habitat everywhere. I know what advantages he has throughout civilization, and what disadvantages he imburs under, and here in America the Negro is the most powerful man that may be committed against him whatever. If a white man wants to insult you, or wants to take advantage of a Negro girl, he can do it with perfect impunity. Every Negro who has been born upon the American soil and raised here known that; and I may this: that he is a man of the conditions, and realizing that his sister and his sweetheart, and his daughter, and his wife are exposed to the moanness of the Caucasian people, is not willing to engage in the work of an organization like the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the purpose of enabling nobile conditions, and to make it possible to protect the womanhood of our race the country over, I may such a man is not fit to live. (Great applause.) In goodly the Coo to the eaterful go amortions & book in every, each, at least by the attesters and the author, as the same, and the same Flava Injustices. Specialist for Old Years I have an old history in my library, which I picked up a few days ago, and in which I read the speech of Putin, Henry, "Among the things he said in one of his historic speeches to the Virginia Assembly at the time immediately pronounced." Revolution was this: "Any group of humanity that will stand for taxation without representation is unfit to have a standing among men." Continuing in this speech, and looking his co-Senators in the eye, he said: "You may sit impatiently by, and be passive at the moment, but you know that my determination is this: Give me liberty or give me death:" (Applause.) I want to say to the black man of this country, to the American Negro: If you will dare sit still, and let this great group of West Indian Negroes do this work alone, the work of effecting the salvation of our race, shame upon you. I will tell you that I said to Queen Eather: "If you stay here in this kingdom, and will not speak a word for the deliverance of your people, God will deliver them." He will do it, anyhow; I tell you that if you sit still in this country and will not take hold of this God-given movement, God in heaven will raise up a man, and he will have to serve again as slaves. I came here to help this man (referring to Marcos Garvey) put this great movement over the top. I have put $100 into the cause, and I did not buy by stocking; I gave it outright. I care not about the money bringing me a return; what I am mostly concerned with is the deliverance of my people. I am patriotic in this thing. I quote the Bible. "And a white horse (quoting from the Bible) came out, and he that sat upon him had a bow and arrow, and was fighting like a devil; and the next man who came out was on a red horse, and he had death in every bow. The horse was on the ground, and on this black horse sat a man, and in his hands he had a pair of balances, and he cried out above the howling mob above him, and said: Lot a measure of wheat for a penny, and two measures of barley for a penny. Now, I want you to understand what I am saying, and I am going to read to you the preamble of the Declaration of Rights to show you that he has come out. About three years ago I wrote a book on the building up of the race, and in that book I dealt with the application of the fundamental laws of producing this race and of unifying the type and of doing away with the heterogeneous characteristics, and establishing homogenous characteristics.

Before our convention met a year ago our organization existed only as a scattered number of branches organized through my instrumentality. The convention brought all the branches together, and in open conclave we elected an Executive Council of which I became a member. We also adopted our constitution in which authority was given me as President General to supervise the work of the minor officers and to be general administrator of the affairs of the organization as elected for four years. I must say that the past twelve months have been bruitful of great results for the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the cause Afric. Whilst last year we had a scattered membership of four million, not thoroughly organized, I am now able to say that palma were taken to reach them through their various divisions and to have them live up to the principles of our constitution. In the prosecution of this purpose I visited several of the branches in the United States of America, especially in the Eastern, Midwest and Western centers. I found the branches ready to receive me and the people enthusiastic everywhere to fall in line with the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. I was successful in building up strong followings in centers like Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Buffalo and Toronto. Whilst these branches mentioned, and others not mentioned, multiplied themselves in membership, after each and every one of my visits, I have discovered that other officers of the council had been through these divisions after my visits, and in many cases have destroyed the morale and solidarity of the members; in some instances they have practically ruined the work of the U. N. I. A. In many cases where they were called upon to investigate the conditions of branches and to honestly bring about reorganization, that they purposely and wilfully showed partiality to friends and acquaintances as against the true interest of the organization and those concerned. This is borne out by the many complaints I have received from the branches everywhere where some of these officers have visited. This tends in a great way to handicap the work in the U. S. A. I have discovered also that great confusion exists among the branches everywhere, caused principally through the dishonesty of some of the local officers, involving, in some instances, presidents, secretaries and treasurers. Many cases have been reported to me where presidents acted as their own secretaries and treasurers, and kept all the funds of the divisions, and where secretaries would receive funds without turning same over to the division, and where the treasurer would abscond from divisions with the funds of the division. Through the actions of such men the millions of members whom we had and those who have joined, became supplementals and satisfied themselves to be rather inactive than to be active members of the organization. I may say, however, that up to the 23d of February we had the American field, to my knowledge, under control. We had succeeded in establishing hundreds of new branches, and we were getting new members by the thousands. Because of the satisfaction afforded me through the enthusiasm of the people in America I made plans to pay an official visit to the branches in Central America and the West Indies, leaving New York on the 23d of February with the intention of remaining for five weeks in the various parts mentioned. In my trips to the tropics I visited several of the branches in Cuba, in Jamaica, in Panama, in Costa Rica, in British Honduras and in Guatemala. I found that the branches, several of them in Cuba, Jamaica and the other countries, suffered in like manner as the American branches from dishonest leadership. In many instances where presidents and secretaries and treasurers at times would misappropriate the funds of the divisions, making it difficult for the members to establish confidence in their administration. I was forced to remain in the West Indies and Central America over the five weeks contemplated: in fact, I had to remain away from America for nearly five months, caused principally through several enemies, both personal and enemies of the organization, using their influence with the government after I had left the country to prevent my return. I have learned that not only enemies from without did make representations to the government against my returning to the United States, but that members and officers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association did encourage and engage themselves in such representations to the government. Through the misrepresentations made to the State Department, all the American Consular Agents in Central and South America and the West Indies were instructed by the State Department not to vise my passport for a return to this country. Through the various Consuls refusing to vise my passport I was prevented all during that time from returning to America to take up the ends of my work. During this absence a great state of demoralization set in as by information-supplied us and complaints made. No respect was shown for the authority of some of the members of the Executive Council, who acted just to suit themselves rather than to foster the work of the organization. According to complaints that I have received, some of these officers conducted themselves in such a manner as to have caused the branches where they visited to have lost respect for them. All this tended to hamper the work of the U. N. I. A. for the last five months, through which we have suffered immensely. I desire to inform you, most honorable delegates, that the time has come for us to be more critical in the selection of the men who are to lead this race of ours and to carry on the work of this organization. We need men who have the conviction of service to the race, man who will not feel themselves above the people when elected to high positions. I have had to deal with men since the convention who felt that because they were elected to position, that it was not necessary for them to do any work to enhance the cause of the U. N. I. A., but that they should collect salaries by just affining down without making any effort to reach the people on whom we have to depend for the upkeep of this movement. I must say that among the executive officers I have found some honorable and worthy colleagues. I have received great assistance during the past year from His Highness the Sultan, the Supreme Deputy, the Right Hon. International Organizer, His Excellency the American Leader, High Chancellor, the Right Hon. Commissional General, the Right Hon. Auditor General, the Right Hon. Counter General, the Right Hon. Assh. Counsel General, the Right Hon. Assistant Secretary General, His Grave, the Chapel General, the Minister of Legion, Hon. Speaker in Convention, and several members of the Field Corps yet in one or two instances a few of the above mentitled officers have given more than ordinary trouble to get them in proper working shape, whilst the rest of the above officials did everything possible to carry out the commands of this convention. They grew me no trouble in carrying out the commands given them and it is for me to consider them in the best way possible. Other officers have been a source of disappointment to me, and I feel sure that this convention will take steps to create better conditions under which we can continue the great work we have before us. From my varied experience with the branches and with individuals, officers and officials of this organization, I think it is wise to suggest to this convention that we take immediate steps to establish a civil service for the Universal Negro Improvement Association, out of which we will train, discipline, and place our men for the work that we have to accomplish. I am suggesting that this civil service prepare the man and women who are ambitious and desirous to serve, and send them out as executive secretaries to the various branches; that is to say, many complaints have come from divisions of the dishonesty of presidents and secretaries and treasurers and the disloyalty of the officers generally causing at times resignation among the officers or a general reorganization of the division, that it is wise that to prevent such an occurrence in each and every branch, that an executive secretary from the civil service of the U. N. I. A. be sent from headquarters to each and every branch and that the executive secretary be responsible to the parent body in protecting the interest of the members of that locality as against graft, dishonesty or disloyalty of any local officer elected by the people through confidence. This executive secretary would keep in his custody the records of the local division so that should the people of that local division call upon their officers to resign or should they desire a reorganization of the division, that the elected officers would not remove the records and documents pertaining to that division to the loss of that division, but that said records and documents would always be in the custody of the civil service of the U. N. I. A., and would be available to be handed over to any new set of officers as elected by the people. I have also marked the embarrassment of our members in identifying themselves at different parts of the world where they have been refused help and protection not by other branches only, but by institutions and governments. In that our organization is recognized as a world power, and appreciated not only by ourselves but by established governments of the world. I am recommending that this convention pass legislation to establish a passport identification service for the benefit of our members. That is to say, we will issue passports of identification to each member of the U. N. I. A. in good standing, and that passport will be used by that member traveling to any country, or any part of the world. That passport identification will also recommend him to the consideration of all divisions, as a bona fide financial member of our organization. I am also suggesting that steps be taken immediately to raise a large sum for the purpose of financing and carrying out the bigger plans of our organization. Relative to our work in Liberia, it is for me to inform you that in February we sent a contingent of man under the leadership of His Highness the Supreme Deputy to start operations. According to the report of His Highness the Potentate, the man arrived and were directed by him to start immediately in putting through the plans of the organization. From the report we have gathered everything is working splendidly in Liberia. During the past year the Executive Council, so as to be able to finance the great work we had before us, decided to raise a loan of $200,000 from our membership, under the heading of the Liberian Construction Loan. From reports received from the Auditor General I believe $137,458.22 were subscribed by the membership through this loan. Owing to my absence in Central America and the West Indies, there seems to have been a falling off in the loan drive because of the demoralized condition of the branches as visited by some of the officers referred to in the earlier part of this, my address. At the present time there is a great financial depression, among the Negro peoples everywhere. Millions of our man are without employment in America, the West Indies, and Central America, and it is therefore, necessary for this organization to make desperate efforts to put through this African programme so as to alleviate the sufferings of the race in these parts. I would also like to bring before this honorable convention the fact that legislation should be enacted for this purpose of creating a veto power on the part of the administrator of this organization, against any disreasonable demand that may be imposed to pass through the Executive Council, which would in a way embarrass the finances or the organization. This suggestion originated from my experience of the council and individual executive officers at times creating bills and ordering the paying of bills or the increase of wages, etc., or salaries; without taking into consideration the financial resources available for the proper liquidation of such liabilities. It is for me to assure you, very honorable delegates, that the U. N. I. A. in sentiment and in fact has grown since last convention by leaps and bounds. We have taken complete possession of the minds of the people, and millions are ready everywhere in these United States of America, South and Central America, the West Indies, and Africa; to do everything possible for the realization of the objects of our organization. But the great difficulty is to find bounty, upright, sincere leadership to take care of these millions of willing gouls. As far as financial the movement goes, the people are willing to do everything, but because of past experiences in other organizations, and even in games of our divisions, where the leaders have been dishonest, people are not competent to immediately respond to the financial demands of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. They desire first to be convinced that our leaders are strictly honest and when they prove them it will not be a question of money, because they will give all money for the successful carrying out of the plans that we have all laid down. This fault, therefore, is not with the people, because, as I know, they are condescending, willing, true, and they will sacrifice their all for the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. This fault is with the leaders. It is so this convention, therefore, to do that that honest leaders are elected to receive those poor suffering people out of their woes and tribulations. From the experience I have received through my contact with the people everywhere in Central America, North America, the West Indies and South America, I feel sure that we have a bright year before us. We can tell us our membership in the meeting, because the people are willing to do everything, but that this convention in the most妥当 attitude of the online organization. As an incentive to better service on the part of certain of the high officers of the organization, I would suggest that legislation be passed to better regulate the salaries of such officers. I would suggest that instead of each officer gutting an absolute maximum salary, provisions be made that his salary be stated at a minimum and a maximum, the minimum to size by increments to the maximum, according to the ability of each officer. I feel sure that we have been encouraged by the ringing message of His Supreme Highness the Potentate. It is for us in the emerging year to be as loyal to him and his government of this organization as we have been in the past. As the President General and administrator I renew my pledge to do all within my power to carry out the commands of this convention, representing the interest of four hundred million Negroes of the world, and to be loyal to the commands of His Highness the Potentate, whom we have sworn to obey in the execution of his duty as the head of the four hundred million Negroes of the world. Yours very truly. MARCH 6, GARVEY wrote these words about Jesus, fallen down on his knees and asked God to direct him.

FIRST WEEK'S SESSION (Continued from page 9) Continuing with the preamble, if reads: "But with love, faith and charity for all" the Negro? Oh, not "But with love, faith and charity for all" "We are the Negroes and shall be warded all will be a wounded person of peace and glority." That is: that black horses with their rider, saying: "A measure of what for a penny. But a measure of what for a body. But a measure of what know people are stalking in different countries. It is: because of boarding of the necessary for life on the island of stunniness and sweetness." White men have enough food supplies put away in the cold storage rooms to feed every body in the world. Now 'lil' is a white man wants. "Pence and plenty will be spread into" every black man. "No Peace and plenty will be spread unto all the world." I imagine that the man will recited by Nicholas Alice in bidding farewell to His Grace the Chaplain-General July 22, 1931).

Aubrey-Garpenter If we were to draw conclusions from a heated debate held between Mr. Sloope and Mr. Lester Taylor last Saturday night at the Socialist headquarters on the corner of Lenox Avenue and Jail Street, it is doubtful whether Sociism can solve the Negro problem, according to the votes received. The debate followed from a previous meeting held, in which Mr. Moore spoke in Advong of Socialism: During the discussion the speaker was handed a series of questions from someone out of the audience, which seemed to request him to his course of talk and subsequently a challenge followed. The debaters were such allotted twenty minutes, then ten minutes, and five minutes, with a five-minute three-minute and two-minute three-minute. There were approximately 300 persons present, who were to be sole judges by popular vote. The question was: "Resolution: That Socialism offers no solution, either the immediate or remote, to the Negro problem." Mr. Taylor, for the alternative, brought out many strong holds during which he said, " Socialism is the strong, just form. When limited out by whites men, eliminates the Nargy entirely. He extended that, when the war makes up it was a hard blow to the Socialist party. Because it was trying to form an international brotherhood. That the Socialist party expected to build from the terms of the Republicans and Dani's or the power with equal rights for superdays. He after the making not had bound down. He would receive the short end of nothing. " It was a small deal to write would be as square deal to the Narrative but it broke to equity our values should be and fashions we must ask a public, a culture that can stand on the other side, and a political order, but the whole man's ideas are in the Nargy, who's now from a economic point of view, to purchase of party and that our future reserves depend suitably. When our country is not a national government, you're just as long as the national government. People of this age, as it comes with the establishment of the National Party, are the most important people who will help us in the world.

Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of Africa, who in a great speech paid a tribute to the woman and earnestly solicited the support of the men. The Black Star Line Band was in attendance and entertained the gathering. His Excellency and his colleagues of the Executive Council) then made a more detailed inspection of the exhibits, after which they required to the tearoom, where tea was served. The exhibition kept open door until 8 p.m. about 600 persons paying for admission. One and all expressed their appreciation of the high quality of the exhibits. The Exhibits The impression gained as one entered the main show-room was that entrus-tastic followers of Marus Garvey, stained adherents of the U. M. I. A. and A. C. I., lover of the Red, the Black and the Green, (the colors of the flag of the Provisional President of Africa), had conspired to intimate so all-belonging that it was Garvey that had given them that great opportunity to indicate what Marus women could do in the workplace, in military and in art. The Red, the Black and the Green furnished the golden scheme. Draping the ceiling were rich tapestries in green and red and blacks, on the white ward beneath the floor in bright Kalimbas and aspreeds. Like many western, all-american, table covers, chandeliers in production that were wildly wonderful when in lead. Because the themes of Marus women are intended to support women. The U. N. I. A. ladies of Cincinnati, Ohio, distinguished themselves most. Their contributions were, taken collectively, the beat, in variety and artistic worth, sent in from the various outposts of the U. N. I. A. Several ladies of New York sent in very excellent exhibits. To mention a couple, Mrs. Alex. Whyte donated a striking sample of flower hand painting, and Mrs. George Tobias' Brussels net silk embroidered bed spread claimed the admiration of all. A wonderful pencil painting of the Saviour, by Mrs. Waldron Pitt, of Seattle, Washington, proved to be one of the best exhibits. Chicago claimed special attention with its millinery display, and Detroit with its highly artistic wood-carved walking sticks. Prominent in the Muse's corner were three songs in praise of Garvayam. They were, "The Garvay Ship of Liberty," words by Marie P. Williams, music by John C. Spikes; "Our Leader," by William Isaen, leader of the Black Star Line Band; "The Red, Black and Green," words and music by Madame Harriet Brown-Lander and El Conway Boyd. British business was done in the food booth, which was well stocked with salads, canned fruit and vegetables, pheasant, preserves, fams, candies, cakes and bacon. The Opening Speech Below is the full text of the speech delivered by this opener, or commissioned by His Excellency, the Hon. Marcia Glavoy. Leaders and Gentlemen: I have been engaged by the objective secretary of the Women's Industrial Exhibition to this condition. This second international World Conventing of the Universal Name Continuity Association, devoted to the charity, industrials, of the women of our world. The Great purpose, that we have made in matters of this second annual international convention of showing to the world the handicraft that*the women of this race of cura is capab' of producing. The women in the vauous divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in different parts of the world have sent articles for exhibition here such as will prove to you and to others also that Negro women are capable of the finer arts. I took it as a pleasure to accede to the request of the executive secretary to say a word, not only of.encouragement to the women who sent articles, but also to encourage our women everywhere to emulate the example of these women who have demonstrated their ability and their determination to do things for the honour and glory of this race of cura The Universal Negro Improvement Association, as you may know, is a world-wide movement that seeks to encourage the Negro in the pursuit of the higher arts, and we have to be grateful to the women for helping us to demonstrate that we are capable in all lines. These of you who visit this exhibition will be more than satisfied that the women of the Negro race are able to acquit themselves as credibly in the finer arts as the women of other races. The women, however, seek the encouragement of the men of the race. They are asking you to give them your whole-hearted support, because they are unable to put over their great program—the program which the Universal Negro Improvement Association has entrusted, in their without, your assistance. Those of you, indeed, who will visit this exhibition will be givenample work of the ability of the gaiters of the women, of the men, in doing things in a manner that compares very favorably with the work of the other races. Xiono. The simulation will be based on the team's time and I feel that the delegates and the members of the organization, and the friends and wildlife will attend this exhibition and will purchase some of the artworks made and manufactured by your own women. It is fine to express your admiration with articles manufactured by the women of other races by the women of Japan, by the women of China, by the women of the countries of Europe and I think you will find in have articles manufactured by Nero women. We will reach the race. (Applanas). The exhibition will reveal to you the great possibilities Through the Universal Nero Improvement Association we are hoping to establish industries, not only in one centre, but in all centres where Nero women Nero industry throughout the United States of America, in Africa, in the West Indies, in South and Central America. The articles you will see will give you an idea of the work we intend to do. If the articles please you we will manufacture on the million, and by manufacturing on a large scale we will find employment for the hundreds and thousands of our race who are unemployed. (Applanas). We are asking your help in every way so that these articles will be the leadership of the Universal Nero Improvement Association until we have accomplished the liberation of this struggling, oppressed race of ours. The Women's Part --- In fact in certain parts of the world we are already recognized as a government. And we who are leading this organization are determined not to stop, not to abate our efforts until we have established for ourselves on the continent of Africa a government controlled and dominated by Neremos. Wanted: True Citizenship We do not desire to subvert the government of any other nation, but we are dissatisfied with our political condition. We are not accorded the privilege of governing our own, and we are working toward that end. We are politically the power that will enable us to use our influence and exercise the other nations of the world. We be the government of our own, we believe the Americans should have a government of their own, we believe the Italians should have a government of their own, we believe that the Japanese should have a government of their own, we believe that the Negro people should have a government of their own. We believe that the government of the Negroes should be second to none. It should be as great and powerful as the yellow race. Since there is a great Great Britain, since there is a great Japan, we want a great Africa (Ap- THIRD—We give you a direct place to get a first claim room with first claim people, with a general investigation that guaranteed both parties' gains degree of guaranteed.

But instead, though regarded as citizens, we cannot be President of this country, and the nation without the rights and privileges of the citizen. If it is right for the Negro to be a citizen, then he must have a chance to be a President above This is the feeling of the new Negro. And since we are unnumbered by race, we are going to establish a government of our own. That is the object of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. And these women who have fostered this industrial exhibition are in their place, we are going to bring about the great ideals I have explained to you. I thank you for your presence and declare this exhibition open. (Lord plaume.) THE U. N. L. A. IN BRUSSVICK, GA.

We are proud to say that our regular meetings are being continued with an increasingly good spirit and thus we are coming out of our old dead selves and dwelling for the new; we are in deed grateful to our Creator that we have been awakened to the fact that we are now in a position to accomplish, in order for us to accomplish, in aim, that in to make the 6th Divine an unbreakable link in this world-wide Negro movement, in this great, wonderful and mysterious organization, we are now in a position to sin that so easily beset us and run with patience the race, that is set before us.

UNIVERSAL NEGRO TIP ASSOCIATION AUDITOR-GENERAL'S REPORT To the Nonprable Delegates and Deputies to this Convention Nonprable Gentleman— It is legal testimony for the auditor of a company or an organization to submit any detailed report of his own, when statements and balance sheet submitted by the treasurer of said company, are satisfactory to those who represent the financial interest of the company. However, I may say that I have audited the reports as read by the High Chancellor, and that I have found all the items mentioned in the statement of receipts and disbursements to be true and correct and supported by the evidence. If the documents were made by the order of the President-General of the Association according to our constitution. Nevertheless, it is always the duty of the auditor when such statement and reports have passed through his hands to convey to the interested parties the details of the transactions made upon him, and also the truth significance of the figures as laid up in the reports. It is also his duty to reveal to those in authority the various reasons why the report is good or bad, and also the causes of loss or profit as to the financial status of the investigation and auditing of the transactions of the concern. For the benefit of those who may not have fully understood the true significance of the report read by the will make the following comments:— Report of Parent Body You have noticed that two separate and distinct reports have been made for the funds received by the parent body. The general funds, and the excitation funds. The general funds include the funds received through the body coming from the branches, such as membership fees, dises, assessment tax, and so forth, while the construction funds, represent only the amount of monies received through sales of bonds for construction in Liberia. The amount of the funds of the parent body need no comment, as they are entirely in keeping with the maintenance and operation of the association. In the expenses made out of the construction funds, the items of $4,005, represent the amount invested in the building of our headquarters in Liberia. The item of $4,653.43 represents the cost of a saw, mill equipment, which was purchased by the Executive Council on the request of its Highness, the Potentate, and which is at the present ship to Monrovia, Liberia, at the first opportunity. The items of $17,208.45, as also the one of $7,470.48 represent the salaries of the staff both members of the company and those who are labored for the sales of the bonds. The items of $10,721.19 is the cost of railway, tickets, car fares, and other conveyances of the staff throughout the country, also for the disposition of the bonds. The item of $40,000.40 for advertising is self explanatory. The item of $40,000 represents the investment of the parent body in the Black Star Line, Inc. FIRST WEEK OF C TION PRESIDENT GENERAL REGAR PILOT Delegatea from Jamaica Many New and S Planned for LIBERTY HALL, New York, Aug. 7, 1911. Delegates from Jamaica and Boston were heard tonight at the first Sunday night meeting in Liberty Hall since the opening of the second international convention on the occasion of the announcement made by the president-general that the coming week will be devoted almost wholly to matters of particular interest to the Black Star Line. The inclementity of the weather had no effect on the crowds that clamored for admission to the hall immediately upon its being shown to the crowd. For the centennial of the dates and members of the simulation, there is not the slightest evidence of abstention on the contrary, it seems to be increasing continually. The people in general now have a greater faith in the U. N. X. A. than ever, while Black Cobia in Europe is still the only place it is to be won in the moving spirit in all, and it is being largely to his sins and inappropriate leisure that it has weathered the storms of the past twelve months and is today more widely known than at any previous time and has a vastly suggested membership and following. The president-general presided to night, while the high chancellor read the Scripture has not taken from征询 the 4th chapter. The introductory program of should was strictly in keeping with the semi-religious character of the Sunday night services, and was elevating and supplementing. Loud Uffach of U.S.A. Dr. J. H. Eaton, American leader was at the pression and was followed by the international pressurized group, a corporate group that was and has been part of the European Association The item $64,853.80 represents the Nero World. Nero, the original game set, the Universal Nero Improvement Association set the New York Local for $40,000. California Client—Assets The general funds of the parent body and the construction funds amounts to $10,128.67, which was the bank balance as per July 2017. There is also a bank balance of $2,458.00 to the credit of the Negro World. To the parent body by virtue of the purchase of the good will of said Negro World. The item of $3,156.00 for furniture and fixtures, represents the value of the furniture of the various offices of the parent body, less a reasonable amount for depreciation. The item of $2,468.00 mentioned as uncollected checks represent the aggregate amount of numerous checks returned by the bank and not pet collection. The item of $4,648.16 in as stated the value of the saw mill equipment, which, being new, has no depreciation. Amounts Receivable The item of $73,650.58 represents the balance due by the various branches of the U. N. I. A. to the parent body on the 20 per cent. dues. The item of $65,648.88 represents the balance due by the "we" branches to the parent body. The amount which should have been received from death tax is $22,270.00 and only $15,650.20 have been received, which gives the uncollected balances of $65,504."^a above stated. Therefore the balance as per balance about is $23,651.71. Liabilities The parent body has no other liabilities except the amount of $140,450.50, which is the amount of bonds sold during the year. This liability is extended over a period of ten years and the parent body will be no more than $20,000 to be paid out in one year. The computed interest on said notes is $5.000. The total liabilities being, therefore $150,920.50, showing a net worth of $150,920.50 on July 21, 1993, shows that the parent body is likely to say that the net worth of $340.50 is only the net worth of the central office of the association, but is not the net worth of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which is to be the branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world. I want also to call the attention of the bonaventure delegates to the important fact that the parent body has the branches to its treasurer, and, when the branches fall, to maintain their obligations or fall, to maintain their payments the parent body receives nothing. I want also to bring to the attention of the president that it is important for the president of the various branches to device means and ways. by which they can collect cash and death tax from the largest number of members in their franchise. The Secretary General's report shows that the commission is working, but I have found that only a portion of the membership is financially connected with the parent body. In conclusion I want to state that owing to the economic condition of the world at this time, and especially of the years just ended has been in succession one and that the operations carried out as well as the firearms made are going to bring great profit in the future. It must be understood that to maintain an organization as broad, in the form of a prowvement. Association large sums of money are required to meet the expenses. If I should base my estimation on the experiences of the previous year I estimate that $300,000 a year is to be met by the Universal Negro Improvement Association if our construction work in Liberia is to go on and if we are to have a large enough staff to attend to the propaganda that we have launched throughout the world. I therefore recommend to the honourable delegates (that before the rallion of this convention you take into consideration the discussion of the budget for the Universal Negro Improvement Association is represented can be allotted a certain portion of the total amount, and that on your return to your respective homes you may see to it that they carry the part as decided by you at this convention you respectful yours. ELISE GARCIA Auditor General I this list opportunity of informing my many: that on and after the sighth of August, 1831. The reason for our removal is to secure larger and better quarters so that we will be better equipped to meet the demands of our trade.

CREIGHTON PARK IS SCENE OF WONDERFUL AND SUCCESSFUL PICNIC The first annual picnic of the New Kensington (Pa.) division was held on Tuesday, July 25, 1921, at Creighton Park, in Junction, Pa. The day of the picnic was a beautiful one and many people were there. First on the program was a big ball game. Next came speaking by Mrs. Elizabeth M. Tucker, a young woman who has gained much success as a speaker and N. U. L. A. worker. Mrs. Tucker was described as being young, attractive and a real artist. "We of the U. N. L. A. stand for the truth," said Mrs. Tucker in one part of her speech. "We speak the truth, therefore we have no apologies to make to anyone. Some say that we are radical. If radicalism will give the freedom to treat others as a more wonderful short speech Mrs. Tucker introduced Mr. Stevenson, a speaker and organizer of the U. N. L. A., to the audience. Mr. Stevenson lectured to the people on the program and doctrines of the U. N. L. A and A. C. L. His speech was most inspiring. The vast audience was greatly moved by the words of this stamuth, fearless Garveyite. After the speaking refreshments were served by the lady officers of the above named division. Rev. T. B. Scott, president of the New Kensington division, is doing wonderful work for this great movement of movements. He is a striking example for any man. He has proved to be ones of the man who are worthy of the name of manhood. REV. T. B. SCOTT, President. REV. T. B. ASTON, Lady President. LOS AMATES DIVISION NO. 212 IN GUATEMALA UNVEILS ITS CHARTER LOS AMATES DIVISION NO. 212 IN GUATEMALA UNVEILS ITS CHARTER Sunday, June 12, will always be remembered as a day among the Negroes at Los Amatera Division No. 12. When its charter was unveiled amidst all the usual ceremonies that mark the true spiritual tendencies of this our grand association. The meeting was opened by the singing of the association's mountainals, followed by our worthy chapelist, Bro. George Eight, who was only assisted in the religious ceremonies by Bro. W. T. Kang, chapelist of the Virginia branch. At this junction the first vice-president, Bro. W. M. Brown, tendered an address of welcome to the Hon. Deputy C. S. Bourne, and also introduced Bro. C. A. Drummond, who acted as master of ceremonies. Many speakers were introduced who spoke in terms quite appropriate, but the zenith was reached by the crowd. Bro. C. A. Drummond ascended the rostrum, who afterounding the principles of the association; also reviewed the possibilities of the redemption of Africes and planting on her hillsides the colors of the Red, Black and Green. . The president of the local branch, Bro. S. A. Bernard, in a few well chosen remarks exhibited his hearts, showing course through our unification that will amplify all the injustices that we suffer at the hands of alien races. The next speaker introduced was Prof. A. N. Medders, who spoke as follows: — Mr. Chairman, Deputy, President, Officers and members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association: It is of a great and profound pleasure to be here today to see the unveiling of this our charter which stands for freedom, liberty, and democracy, for as a race, we have been trampled, de- spised, and compared as half man and half monkey by alien race but praise to be God: the thing has come for Ethiopia to the north with her hands, and the heart which is the heart of the morning and grounding hats with his, mowing which is the Hox, Maroon, Dray, who is determined to�s bloss and blast the pathway to the redemption of Africa. There were many Negro legends rounding bloss before. Maroon gets on the come-out, the sound of these bloss never go further than in the building where they were bloss. Maroon stood in New York City and soundly cl甸erly which reached to every neck and corners of the world, before it is the real's interest to stand by him and prove: burseryless true analyst's matter — but the land that God Almighty has given us to be, but our courtings have been de- fined and paralleled out among all races, and the free-ze of the world, and the free-ze of the world. The world has been a far-right and the same way to sit down with a way to do so, so that the people you think, now, in the day of an unrest, get down to business, wait for it in the world and claim what is the world. The world is not the same as the world, but the world is the world with the same kind of life. are doing the work and the Anglo-Saxons are worried, the redemption of Africa is sure. What has hampered our movement much, we stop to listen to too much criticism instead of keeping space with time. Mark the impression of the B. B. Frederick Douglas with the Red, the Black and the Green on her gallant mask showing the so-called impossibility possible. And with unfaced memorial of our great convention of August last will show the spirit of the new Negro. ALBERT FRANCIS, LOCAL ORGANIZER OF NEW ABERDEEN DIVISION OF U. N. L. A. & A. C. L., C. B.

We by two-of-the- three of them, us to his home and then took building and a Garvey house. We is leaving Trace Special mention has to be made of the choir, which was pr. over by Mr W. M. Brown. The opended encasers showed the audience's appreciation of the anthems rendered. Indeed we have very great reason to be proud of our women, who are second to none in that God-given talent. Our organist, Mra. Martínez, surely merits all the congratulations that were showered upon her, and the praise of E. Humphrey. The charter to this was kept from view by our tricolor, the Red, the Black and the Green gracefully adorning her, with Old Gldy and the Glatmalan flag on her right and left wings, and was at this juncture unveiled by the Misses Griffiths and Brown, assisted by Mr. Lopez. Miss Griffiths gave a short recitation, which ran as follows: "Hon. Deputy Officers and members of the Los Amates Division, let our watchword be Unity," which was greatly amplified. Then fame in order of Miss Brown "was raised," which stands for right, truth and justice, and with our support and cooperation we shall soon be able to redeem Ethiopia and restore to her her ancient glory." At this point the audience went wild with enthusiasm. The President of the Barrios Division, Mr. L. A. Davis, through ill health was unable to attend, but sent a letter of regret for not being able to attend, but expressed his absence in body but presence in spirit. Then came the next speaker, Mr. A. Taylor, President of the Morales Branch, who gave a very interesting speech. And the last, but not the least, of our speakers was Mr. R. M. James, our ex-assistant secretary, giving a very warm and patriotic speech. The meeting was brought to a close by singing our national anthem "Ethiopia, Thou Land of Our Fathers." The Doxology was pronounced by our worthy chaplain. H. L MARTIN, DETROIT NEWS AND DOINGS OF AFRICA'S CHILDREN The Detroit division of the U. N. I. A. enjoyed a very agreeable program on Sunday, July 24. The meeting was well attended and much interest was taken in the preparation to send a delegation to the great convention of the greatest African movement of modern times. The program was in the hands of the newly elected lady president, Mrs. J. C. Libbey. After the usual formities the U. N. I. A. anthen, "Ethiopia Thou Land of Our Fathers" echoed from the audience with courage and determination. The learned features included an address by the president, W. O. Smyer. Another by the second vice-president and bandmaster, Mr. W. O. Smyer. The address was plain and plained. A splendid quartet was rendered and ancestor two. The first was "O, Mary, Don't You Weap Don't You Mourn," and the second was "The Black Star Line's Going to Carry Me Home." The president and delegate, Mr. W. O. Smyer, left for New York to attend the U. N. I. A. convention on July 29, which begins August 1, and continued to the end of that month. Mr. Charles L. Ambry was elected president pro tem, and shows much interest and vigor in his conduct of the meetings. Several warm speeches were made in progress of time by persons who took no part in the program before. There was a musical recital at Bethel Church on Tuesday night, July 15, given by colored concert actors. One of the most admirable of the noted violinist who speaks with the music in all the languages of the string. Miss Mary Jones sings a very strong soprano. The other two participants were Mrs. Penn, pianist, and Mr. Peter H. Thompson, tenor. The program was well rendered. The Second Baptist picnic to Sugar Island on July 15, was a great success. The children of Africa from two States of the Union—Ohio and Michigan, met on the Island of Sugar, at the Sugar Island Boats from Toledo and four from Detroit; meted the Island with black folks. The four senior baseball teams of Bethel and Second Baptist played a lively match. The Bethel B. S. were the best players. The outing was very approable. J. N. L.

C. departed from Glace Bay determined to spread the doctrines of the U N L A. and A. C L in various sections of Nova Scotia where they had not been heard of. Choosing as our first field Francades, we arrived there at 3.30 a.m. and passed the time away until 5 o'clock sauntering to and from the ground. We were fortunate to be met by a young man (col-ld) named Joseph Diamond, who took us to the colored settlement, where we got in touch with a gentleman named Mr. Edmond Caines. After an explanation, this good Ramanian drank the news of the U N L A as a thirty soul drinks of a cooling stream. We met him and obeyed his plea that we abide with him until our departure, our stay being two days, and his kind madam and lass. Miss Elizabeth, thought it an honor to serve two of Marcus Garvey's disciples. With the aid of Mr. Caines we secured the village school. Two hours later we met, having summoned the whole district by going from house to house with Mr. Caines, who spread the news like wildfire. (No printing press in that section.) We staged our first meeting at 7:30 p.m. the school being packed. We hold the audience in check for about an hour and a half. The community was highly enthusiastic, when suddenly Mr. Riley, white speaking, was interrupted by a lady, who would not give her reason why. That caused our meeting to disperse. Then a gentleman stood up and called on the audience to vote that we would not have a chance to follow him as pre-arranged. A human thought us besten. We learned later on that he was the deacon of the church and one of Mr. Du Boll's believers.

After service we started our own service at the church door, aparing 20 times in using the whip of the U. N. I. A. and A. C. I. A. by us, and we received the oaths of the church. One of them, Mr. Howard Dey, took us to his home, laid a sumptuous table and then took us to a large unfinished building and said, "Lecture on the Garvey movement here; this is my house." We lectured until 10:10 p. m. leaving Tracader ablaze. Although times are strenuous, they are struggling to send for their charm, thus making us more aware that Mr. Musa refused payment for our keeping, stating, "We have got the U. N. I. A., that is payment." We arrived at New Glasgow on the 11th in. We found ourselves confronted by a gentleman who told us, "I am an African Baptist minister. I am not in line with the Garvey movement and cannot say that you can have the church school," and then he began to insinuate that on the Garvey movement we never lost any time in using the whip U. N. I. A. He ran a school. A short distance from our place of meeting, which was at the home of another good Samaritan, Mr. Thomas Milla, we found a large green field which God had put there for that purpose. On the following day we held a grand open air mass meeting. There are no better people to meet than those in New Glasgow. We lectured for two and a half hours, putting another division over the top.

Elected as Delegate to Convention With the destination of three of the nominees for delegation, President Potter and Lady President O'Brien were left in the field, and after outlining their respective program, the former was victorious by an overwhelming majority vote. There is some misunderstanding in connection with the Montreal delegates which we since surely hope will be settled in New York during August. Next week we will contribute an article on the type of leadership required for the Montreal Branch. President Potter has labored earnestly in making arrangements for a picnic to be held on the 4th inst. We anticipate an enjoyable day. Lady President O'Brien has left for the States and hopes to attend the convention. Dr. D. L. Lewis informed us that he would attend about the middle of the month. The doctor is a very busy man. Yesterday was Ladier Day and a final program was rendered. The U. N. L. A. orchestra is still alive and does not hope to die. It grows bigger and grander every time. A Negra crime-wave is sweeping the city. The West Indian Cricket Club is holding its own. On Sunday, Curt Hugh, the recently arrived visitor and pride of Mr and Mrs. Glinp, was baptised in the Union Congregational Church by Rew. O. Thompson. A great number of our members are unemployed; a small percentage of the rest are ill. Our heartfelt wishes for a successful convention. CHARLES H. D. ESTE THE U. N. I. A. IN MILWAUKEE We, of the Milwaukee Division had a very successful Membership Drive Meeting. The Galilee Baptist Church was filled, even to the door. When we made the call for new members, we learned that every person in the build- ing was g. U. N. I. A. member with the exception of one person, and that now joined before leaving. We are not damned because we did not get but one new member because the meeting was helpful in around the slothful members, those who had been staying away from our weekly meetings.

At the close the ex-secretary, D. E. Johnson, continued his address. He gave greetings to the official guests. He retraced his address from May 23, when the C. G. was received in our Liberty Hall for the first time. He went further to say that with the same joy he was received and it continues the same. He further said that his coming to Cuba had not only stimulated this division but has invigorated the whole republic of Cuba. We only are sorry to say good-bye, but under such conditions we wish you godspade, hoping you will reach home with such report from Cuba that it will thrill the hearts of those who await in anxiety your happy return. His address was closed with much applause. A solo was given by Kira. Martha Thompson, "Home, Homig"; recitation by Master Leonard Coolbrooks, "Awake, We Negrowr"; solo by Kira, Kung Pabaly, "Miss Mary, Miss John, Miss Viola Squires," "The U. N. K. A." A ferry address was given by Mate Cathleen Richards, a young lady of 29 years (smile). Her address set the hall in a name. She said for her age if any mishap occurred she asked the driver. She said the path she. She related her first taste of Garveyism in Guantanamo by His grace the C. O. whom she termed the fruman. She said: "The engine could not go because there was no engineer. The fruman, the King, was O. C.uma, whom she armed the engine as he turned the throttle there the engine started moving. And she hoped that that engine, which is that living consciousness of racial uplift, will be ever rolling until Africa is free.

But we have always felt that the whole heartening speech of Edenae might be fittingly applied to our race's situation, especially in America. For we, too, "have suffered weightless woes" and have the stern tastes of steering between Soylla and Charybria. We also need that faith which is "the sub-creature of the creature," cheering thought that out of the regaining ease of peril we will eventually escape and win our way finally into the haven of rest. Dr. Sinclairie book charts for us the currents of that raging sea of racial prejudice whose gript we have not yet wholly escaped. It differs from many of our Negro books that have given to fame in at least one important reason: not a collection of more rare and less occasioned works, but been brought together for collective publication, as in the case of "The Souls of Black Folk," "Darkwater," "Out of the House of Bondage." It is a book which has been planned and written as such. Eight of its ten chapters are distinctly historical. They constitute what might well stand as the most important prejudice from the end of the Civil War to Roosevelt's second administration. It is a striking fact that many of our historians in America, from George Williams to Dr. Sinclair, have been clergyman. This has given us perseverance, added relegation to summaries of our historical narratives. Sermonizing, however, is not necessarily bad, and Dr. Sinclair's sermonizing are often serviceable. It is true that he is weighted down with old-fashioned loyalties to the Republican party is to him an organization of good man who, clad in the shining armor of righteousness, went forth to slay the dragon of Southern unrighteousness with the sole object of setting the Negro slave and the slave-breaker a brook. He never seems to haveinking the fact that that fact's existence developed out of a definite economic and political need of the rising industrialism of the North, nor does he see its necessary relation to the slave-breaker to the capital $\textcircled{1}$guardian and, well sure it has consistently been. His legislation to the Republican party,India, him, to give away, the fact, that the Negroes have lost the vote in the South and that the control of the national means of law enforcement is reduced to enforce a single one of the constitutional amendments were enacted to protect the Negroes, Ivory, liberties, and political rights. Nevertheless, the Aftermath of Slavey is a valuable storehouse of historical information with which we of today cannot afford to dispense. The fields of the reconstruction period are gives from authoritative sources, and the reader is made to realize the Southern States such as South Carolina, Southwest Georgia such as Indiana, to wit that the Northern states forced Negro embrace upon them as a gratious insult. He can read here the laws passed by the Legislatures of the Southern States in the fall and winter of 1858-58 and can learn from their examples how to deal with the hand to the cowardly task of reducing the recently enfranchised Negroes to a slavery more hopeless and degrading than that from which the war had liberated them, and that in each instance "the slavery which was abolished by the organic law of a nation was now revived by the enactment of a State" was made a crime and they were everywhere seized, taken to court and put upon the chain gang to labor for Southern society without pay. Their children were "apprenticed" to their former masters; laborers were prevented from keeping livestock and from working in the fields of the State as so some while man's charities. "The master or his agent might assign the car with profanities aimed at the Negro man and outrage every sense of decency in foul language addressed to the Negro woman; but if one of the helpless creatures, graded to resistance and cried out with impatience, should answer with impatience, did so at the cost of himself one dollar for every outburst," which "near" he had to work out. Such was the condition of the freedman when Congress intervened. And yet Southern lira and Northern hypocrites have the unbilling efficiency to denounce and deplore the "mistake" Southern Negro in his own defense. Dr. Sinclair traces the history of the Southern opposition to reconstruction and the war against Negro suffrage which was finally won by the South when, in 1877, the Republican party surrendered the Negro to the tender mercies of the "crowks." He then moved the Negro to the lynchings and the district camps, the hall of modern pennage and the present plantation system, the details of which are given in contious quotations from Southern newspapers. The political plight of the Negro is set forth as the present determination of the Negro to form a formal bondage and hopeless degradation.

But I dislike even mora to do wrong in another manner. These morals are not so important as to point out them in that part of my last week's contribution, that was granted (under the title of What is man? man?); was guilty of "touthing" my apprentice John Cromby;遗忘; the question of his name or names was not in proper part of my report to him and was really a violation of the ethics of contemptivity. I thundered beneath him this position by the spirit in which it is offered. It still remained unopposed of the values of his arguments on the merits of the case in contemptives. II. 21, II.

Lily Whitea Control Virginia State Convention—Bodie Ejecting Accredited Negro Delegates—Chairman Adams Nominates Virginia to Lead Early in "The New Smith" (Appointed 16 to The Negro World) WASHINGTON, D. C. July 16—assignment of appointment has arisen, that is, desire to become nation-wide in its scope, over the seining policy of the government administration to permit "Lily White," Republican to dominate the election, to be elected by the legislature, thereby the displeasant treatment accursed, July, accredited, Negro delegates of the Virginia State Republican convention, held at Norfolk, July 16, when for the first time, in the history of the Republican convention, not a single Negro delegate was elected, the polls being ordered to be known, suppressed, and admission, that the majority elected Negro delegates with no contests pending them, were forcibly ordered to leave, the floor of, that convention, determined as it was by Congressman B. Sloane Hemp, that Priest of the Mild White," member of the Republican National Committee, and the Mongolian of the Republic in the fourth. (3) by the coming intention of the present administration to set the procluses of several hundred "white-women employees of the Treasury Department, forming the red flag of Jesuit prejudice, defeating the claims of justice, outweighing the will and wishes of 18,000,000 loyal Negro Americans, and upset a commendable prefect, who registered of a Negro as registrar of the United States Treasury, a position creditably filled by members of our race from time immemorial under various Republican administrations; (4) by Hon. W. H. Hays, former chairman of the Republican National Committee, grazing, by his presence, the "white-white" convention at Roanoke, Virginia, and the Republican of the States, both white and colored, and openly encouraging the cutting down of Negro delegates this year at the recent meeting of the National Committee, and (7) by Chairman John T. Adams, of the Republican National Committee, falling in the same trap, by writing a special letter to Congressman C. Bascom Sleimp at the Virginia, which excluded Negro delegates in disgrace violation of the resolution and mandates of the last Republican national convention, and in which encouraging the following astounding paragraphs: "On the fundamental issue Virginia in sentiment is as strongly Republican with the right that should assume its rightful place to use the nation. A country forever united calls on old Virginia to help in restoring its institutions. . . . So we Republicans of the nation come to you of Virginia with your patriotic traditions and genius for leadership. We want your help. We want your skilled hand on the trader as we near the end of the war against the harbor of Republicanism. We are ready to take a pilot aboard and we ask Virginia to take the pilot's commission." "Ye Gods! Think of Basesom Semp and Virginia plotting the Republican party! A man who carls on the 9th Virginia district for himself, but himself was elected last election; a State where the "Lily White" Negro exclusion policy has been tried out time and time again without any ambulance of success in building up a strong white Republican party. The Republican party, by its leadership in Southern Republican affairs and by covertity and openly aiding and abetting Congressman C. Basesom, in his "Lily White" propaganda, is virtually digging a grave for the Republican party, as innominate as its national victory in 1820 was overwhelmed. Republican candidates in States and districts, where, Nangroas largely vote may, well, be蔑, the ascendancy of Lilly, White-ish, and the triumph of Basson Ellem, for unless the Republican national leadership radically alters its present program Nangroos rejoice in Nangroas' campaigns when no supernatural figures like the League of Nations figures, the loss of Nangroas votes in Northern, States will give the G. O. P. a rude awakening. WILFORD B. SMITH, "THE PITCHFORK" AND THE NEGRO WILFORD B. SMITH, "THE PITCHFORK" AND THE NEGRO By Rev. Christie A. Harrigan Reviewing a compact and masterly written editorial in the Negro World of July 16 tense, entitled "Where Ignorance Dares Me," disguised and disappointed when I came across some of the most lamentally, audacious and extremely pernicious remarks that ever came from the pen of any moral being sin creation, as I read the editorial of Wilfred B. Smith, of the "Texas Pitchchork." The Negro World's Editor, Dr. W. E. Ferria, in his comment on the Southern Cracker's editorial, said that the writer is ignorant, and intimated that he would not be deplorably displayed in the following remarks, when he said, "In the world's six thousand years of history the Negro remained a beast in the woods and didn't even learn to cook his meat. The Negro produced no historian, even of his own long night of savage they glama no star. The Negro, through sixty centuries and through the ages, never painted an opera, never painted a picture, never carved a statue, never sang a song that would grace music's kingly realm, etc. I have to disagree with Dr. Ferris in that I don't believe that Mr Smith is ignorant. I don't believe a man could be ignorant and yet be an editor in any way ignorant in any way ignorant relative to the matter under discussion. But I do believe he is throwing out a "amok-screen" of "pretended ignorance using it as a barricade behind when he is able to do more effective fighting." It must be remembered that this has always been the Anglo-Saxon "mode" of fighting, especially in the "rational warfare," which have been in existence since the "dutge." They have been the man that he is nothing, has never been anything, and will never be anything. That's why in none of the text books is there anything printed that would in anyway reflect credit on the Negro race. In every one of the books, the Negro is by white men, the Negro is always portrayed as a savage, a slave or an animal. And the children, both black and white (who always represent the future generation), are compelled to drink of that damnable, nauseating blood from the books, millions of colored people in the world today who really believe they are nothing, and that their ancestors before them were nothing. This is perhaps true about millions of whites who had drunk from the books, and drank of that corrupt, now. Now, if it is possible that Willford B. Smith of Texas, is among this latter group, for his enlightenment we mention the following. It surely would be unnecessary, even if one did not drink from the books, by Dr. W. E. Ferris, editor of the Negro World, for I am sure that in his editorial mentioned at the outset of this article that he left no stance unturned. There is one thing, however, that Dr. Ferris failed to state that he himself is author of a great book called "The African Abroad." Texas must be one of these rebellious, degenerated "alums" in the United States, and the Negroes there must have contracted, if not inherited, so much of the the "blindness" and "problem" of the Negroes that they have caused Mr. Smith to come to the conclusion, that they represent all the Negroes of all time* and places. To my mind there is only one tiring of which the Anglo-Saxon can boast, and that is his ability to lie and detain. When it comes to driving out Indians and stealing their land, shooting down bumbaits and mobbing and killing them, the Anglo-Saxon, especially the American, is supreme. But, when it comes to these higher things as music, art, literature, science, etc., for which the Africans, Nippons, Teutons and others are famous, the "American" cannot and dare not even show his face. Show me a great American who was not of African descent, and a great deed they have done which they did not initiate or copy from a foreigner. In foreign-countries such as Germany, preeminently, a white American is not considered as much as a dog, and it is because of the low estimate which is placed upon him by eminent statesmen that he tries to brush off, black man, endeavoring through that method to raise himself in the estimation of his (white) superiors. And as to a Teran, he is least of all. Whatever Smith might say don't effect us, for we know the "rock" from which we were hawn, and the heath from which we descended. A description of white man and life, the same as there are placed in Central Africa (our home), white/no white man can "see and live." It seems us to know that the first books or pieces of literature which were presented in the world were written by black men. Even the art of writing was first conceived in the mind of a black man. You may know why the Pateltench, which when this as all his association? from black men of course (Eugely). Then, after receiving his learning through the sensitivity of a black prince, Now Xid, he knew and was able to tell about things which was several hundred years before he was born. Xid, a 20th-century New Yorker who inspired us that they had to go to any school. To see his place in the境界, both the other than the other one, and which and how written by the Hogmoing from which he drew his expressions. When the Caulish, now known as the whole man was well and through the valleys of the fencescapes-Mountain, walking on their-all-fours like a quadruped, feeding upon grass-like an ox and upon vernal like a snake; when they were bunged hunted down in the forests with dogs like swine by the Ethiopian, Cyranians and Phoenicians (all colored), who had to set them up on the hillside to walk like a man, the Negro was basking in the blessed-sunshine of civilization and in communion with the angels. You talk about music and singing! Why, the Caucasian would have never known how to talk had he not been taught to do so by the Negro. Don't talk about carving statues; don't talk about statues in Egypt for the last 8,000 years, some standing and some hidden in the ground to await our arrival, which cannot be imitated by the Caucasian's best. Where did the white man get the knowledge of architecture? Why, the white man haven't yet seized a building as good as the Egyptian's w. That a why the white, especially the pitiful and lamentable Americans, are always picking out the great Negroes of old, such as the Pharaohs of Egypt, the rulers of Egypt, the emperors of Egypt (including King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba), and painting them white to make the white race appear to be something. But the naked and undifferentiated truth remains, establishing the fact that the white race is not any more important present, little more than what they stole. Take the American whites, for instance. They stand out as one of the most pre-eminent examples of trickery and fraud. The Mexican flag would now be flying over Duluth, where what race was that first conceived the idea of ship-building. And who built Sooamona temple? What race? Who brought the gold from Ophir by see to Jerusalem? Who did the woodwork? What people was it that was able to break through the west and north to south before Marcelli of Italy was ever known? What race or who were those people in Africa and Asia that were burnen-electric lights without who long before Benjamin Franklin of Philadelphia was born? What race that could read the astra knew its disposition, acquainted with their location and signification more than any white man that ever lived? Who made the first subway, through which the Chaddea entered Babylon? Who made the first organ, from which the Caucasian copied? Who or from whom did the whites learn these characters, as in 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9 and 0? From whom did he get the basis to the language he now speaks? Let me ask the American who did they rob the country in which they now live and of what race were those people descendant? Let Mr. Wilford C. Smith of Toxa pray that the U. N. I. A may not prove successful, for if it does prove success, he will be many white pilots who will be crying to the rockets to fall upon them end to hide them from the wrath of him who is, was and is to come—the Negro. The time is not far hence when men like Mr. Smith will be singing a different song than the bluffing and when instead of being in position to give a square deal, they will be placed in a position to ask one. Let it be forever remembered that England and Japan are keeping tabs on the German and Germanic Germans, Italy, Spain and almost all other countries are doing likewise and all have openly expressed their disapproval.

Now the time has come for a change and a change it will be, too. Blow, Garvey, blow; in things material the colored churches are with you.

I hope will hide beheaded and let Jesus will hide beheaded through His writing word, equally dividing the word of truth. I hope they will have Samuerg ear to say: Speak, Lord, for Thy servant hearth. (1 Sam. 16:10) Now listen, readers, to what I had been taught when in Babylon. I had an immortal soul that can never die. That I found to be only a tradition of man. The Bible says: The soul that stumbled in Babylon was an immortal soul that we hope for immortality through Jesus Christ by a Resurrection (1 Cor. 19:54) to as many as believe and do the will of God. Now if I possessed a never-dying soul, whether I were good or bad, the death of Christ would profit me nothing, for I would have already possessed what he purchased for me by His death and Resurrection. was taught, when I were good or bad, that he did be went to hell and was in torture. The Bible teaches that the dead know not anything (Ecc. 9:5). Now if a man's thoughts perish and his memory is forgotten at death, how can he be tormented? The Bible teaches that the wicked will be punished at death and the white throne judgment in the lake of fire (Rev 22, 11, 12. Rev 20, 11-15 I was taught when in Babylon that if I were good when I died I would go astray to heaven and be with Jesus and the angels. But the bible teaches that I should not know anything until the resurrection (John 2, 28-29). The 14th chapter of St John the Gospel, verses 2 and 3 proves that a believing dying in Christ does not go to heaven until Jesus comes. When I was in Babylon I was taught that I should be unconscious both wicked and good. But the Bible teaches that both are unconscious Babylon is teaching Satan's lie that he preached to Mother Eve in Eden saying, ye shall not surely die teaching spiritualism, making mankind suffer because man is inherent in mortality apart from Christ and the Resurrection. New to make John 14: 2 3 and many other paragraphs of Scripture harmonize with the teachings of Babylon. I would have to change it and make it read like this. In My Father's house there are many manions, if it were not so I would have told you I go to prepare a place for you and I go to prepare a place for you, you shall come to me when you die.
