The Negro World

Negro World ONE GOD, ONE AIN, ONE DESTINY A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race VOL. XII. No. 5 NEW YORK SATURDAY; SEPTEMBER 17, 1921 RINGING MESSAGE OF HON. MARCUS GARVEY TO NEGROES OF THE W Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting: What are you waiting for? Haven't you been told that the time has come for the four hundred million Negroes of the world to organize themselves into one solid body for their common protection? Haven't you realized that the world around you is organizing itself into separate and distinct race groups for the protection of each and every race? How long will you keep the Negro Race disorganized? How long will you keep the Negro Race from enjoying the common benefits of humanity? The hour and time for organizing is now. It is no use putting off if we must be saved. The work of organizing must be done now. The Universal Negro Improvement Association that represents the spirit of the four hundred million Negroes of the world, is asking friend and foe within the Negro Race to get together now and weld themselves into one mighty body for the ultimate salvation of the problems that confront the race. Every Negro in the world must be organized into the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and we have started out in the year 1921-1922 to do it. Members and friends of this organization must use every bit of energy and make every effort to have each and every colored person they come in contact with members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We want the 400 million Negroes of the world to be active members of this great organization, because this organization has a program to be put over in the interest of each and every member of the race. An appeal is now made to Negroes everywhere to fall in line with the onward march of this the greatest of Negro organizations. Now is not the time for Negroes to listen to those who would put off the work that should be done today for tomorrow. We must realize that the world is being run by organized methods nationally, racially and even individually. Only well organized movements and efforts succeed today, and it is for this reason that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is desirous of having all Negroes organized so that whatsoever we do can be done through united purpose and united effort. What a pleasant thing to have all Negroes organized with one sentiment, one aim and one destiny. The thing can be done and we are determined to do it. There shall be no North, no South, no East, no West, where Negroes are concerned. We must have one united race, with the grand and glorious object before us of a free and redeemed Africa. We want confidence in ourselves and with this confidence we will be able to move the world of opposition. The greatest weapon used against the Negro today is that of disorganization. No disorganized group has ever succeeded in winning anything they desired, but peoples who have been organized and have kept organized are those who have won the privileges and advantages sought. As a race, we have been divided for over 500 years, and all during that period of time we have been abused, advantaged, kicked and tossed about, spurned and scoffed at all through a realization of that fact, that there was no organized spirit of unity existing among us. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is determined to change the old order of things by bringing about a united race. We are not going to put off the work to be done for the bringing about of this united race for tomorrow, for next year, for the next decade, or for the next century. We are going to do it now. We want active and energetic, patriotic Negro men and women and children everywhere to start out now, organizing for the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We want a branch of this association in every nook and corner of the world, every hamlet, every village, every district, every town, every city, every state, every country, must have a division, a branch or a chapter of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. This thing must cover the entire universe. Africa must be covered from the North, the South, from the East and the West; Central America must be covered, every country of the West Indies must be thoroughly organized, North American must be covered throughout the 48 States in every nook and corner. We have a work before us that will keep us busy for the next 25 or 50 years, until we get the 400 million Negroes into one solid body with the one grand slogan of "Africa for the Africans." It is no use saying it can't be done. It must be done or you must make up your minds to die. You must remember that we are living in an age of keen competition. Nation rivaling nation, race rivaling race, individual rivaling individual in the great battle of the survival of the fittest. What are you going to do if you make no effort to survive, but go down in defeat and die an ignominious and unlamented death. There are too many Negroes in the world for this race to die ignominiously. We must live, yes, we shall live, in spite of all the oppositions held against us, in spite of chattel slavery, in spite of industrial slavery, in spite of social ostracisms, in spite of educational limitations, we are bound to survive. Why, we are the second strongest race group in the world numerically. We have men in the North, in the South, in the East and in the West; we have men in the central parts of the world. Why, we have made a circuit of the entire universe. We have the language of all races, of all nations, we know of the achievements of all races, of all nations, we have taken part in the accomplishments of all peoples; we have civilization at our fingers' end, we have been in the schools of adversity and have been in the schools of prosperity for the last 500 years. With a knowledge of the past, the present, and a true conception of the future, we must go forth and conquer for the glory of our race and for the freedom of Africa. The man or woman who has no confidence in self is an unfortunate human being and is really a misfit in creation. God Almighty created each and every one of us for a place in the world, and for the least of us to think that we were created only to be what we are and not what we can make ourselves is to impute an improper motive to the Creator for creating us. God Almighty created us all to be free. That the Negro Race became a race of slaves, was not the fault of God Almighty, was not the fault of the Divine Master, it was the fault of the race. Sloth, neglect, indifference, caused us to be slaves. Confidence, conviction, action will cause us to be free men today. As for us of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we have confidence in ourselves that we can build up a mighty race and a mighty nation. We have confidence which makes us believe that in another few years Africa will be free, Africa will be redeemed. Those without confidence, those who have no faith in themselves, say it can't be done. DuBols says the Negro cannot stand the climate of Africa, even though the Negro was born a native of the climate of Africa. Men like others of the DuBols type feel that the Negro should exert no energy of his own, should make no effort on his own account to build himself a power in the world; but on the contrary should be depending upon the good will of other men like him. created at the same time with him, who in their own way labored, sacrificed and died to make it civilization which we must enjoy without making an effort to contribute thereto. We must give the lie as a race to the charge made that Negroes are not capable of doing for themselves. We have done for ourselves in the past in building up ancient civilization, and we can do for ourselves today in building up a modern civilization. Let not DuFouh discourage you, let not any small-minded Negro discourage you by telling you that you must depend on the good will of other races for your success in the world. You must depend on the good will of yourself. If you have no confidence you are twice defeated in the race of life. With confidence, you have won even before you have started. The new Negro knows no Alpa; he will climb the loftiest mountain if beyond stands human success. The new Negro knows no battle link if in penetrating Here is success beyond. The new Negro knows no danger if beyond there is success. We did it in France, we did it in Flanders, we did it in Mesopotamia, we shall do it anywhere and above all, we shall do it on the battle plains of Africa. The question that confronts the world today is: "Shall you live?" The answer is yes, or no. It is yes for those who have the will, it is yes for those who have the initiative, it is yes for those who have the confidence in themselves, and it is no for those who lack these qualities. Surely four hundred million Negroes will not go down into defeat by lacking the qualities that will make a race, a nation, or an individual live, hence I appeal to Negroes everywhere to throw in their lot with the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Cast in your resources in education, in ability, in money, and let us make the thing go. Now is the time for each and every Negro to help caring not what means he possesses, let it be $50, $100, $1,000, $10,000. Now is the time for him to contribute a part of his finance to the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and help us to put over the biggest program ever sponsored by Negroes since the great God said, "Let there be light." Now is the time for you to get behind the Black Star Line Steamship Corporation and buy more shares, let it be 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, at $5.00 each, and help this corporation float big ships, well equipped ships, so that the Negro can take his place in the great industrial race of the world. If Negroes are to be fed, then Negroes must through their own initiative create their own industries, because man lives by the sweat of his brow must be interpreted to mean than man must labor for his maintenance. The labor market of the world is glutten, millions are out of employment and, therefore, can find no bread. If you want bread you must create your own industries, to find employment for you so as to provide you with the staff of life through which you will exist in competition with others. OIS AND PAN AFRICAN CONGRESS ANSWERED BY THE HON. MARCUS GARVEY AT BIG MASS MEETING HASTILY SUMMONED AT LIBERTY HALL LIBERTY HALL, New York, Wednesday, Sept. 7, 1921 — At a big special mass meeting held here tonight hastily summoned, with scarcely a day's time in which to issue announcements of it, the Hon Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of Africa and head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, took up the cudgels of debate with Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, now at the Pan-African Congress being held in Paris, France, and head of a delegation of thirty American Negro men and women who are attending the congress as delegates. Recent cable dispatches received through the Associated Press contained statements made by Dr DuBois and other Negroes associated with him at the congress in which a challenge was laid down in the passing of a resolution repudiating the slogan adopted by the Universal Negro Improvement Association of "Africa for the Africans at home and abroad." Other statements made by some of the delegates, particularly the French deputy from Senegal and the deputy from Guadaloupe, who are residents of Paris, were contained in the press dispatches to this country concerning the attitude of the members of the congress toward the program of the U N I A, coupled with a statement of their own program and principles. The divergence in views upon this question between the two race groups the one headed by the Hon. Marcuss Garvey, the other by Dr DuBois, is sharp and distinct, the one being the antithesis of the other. The DuBois group favor amalgamation with the white people in this country, and the advocacy of the doctrine embraced in the late Dr. Booker T. Washington's famous phrase, "let down your bucket where you are." The Garvey group—better known as "Garveyites"—opposed amalgamation, believing it will never entwine the race problem, maintaining that as for establishing closer social relations between the two race, is concerned—the people for centuries have been strongly opposed to each other socially, and the white race will never abandon its prejudice against the Negro and treat him on a plane of social, political and industrial equality—the plan has been tried again and again and failed miserably; that the black man's only hope of redemption is the creation of a distinct racial type of civilization of his own and to work his salvation in his motherland, all to be accomplished under the stimulus and influence of the slogan, "Africa for the Africans, at home and abroad." Mr. Garvey showed himself at his best tonight, and proved he is a master of argumentative speaking, and that in the matter of forensic effort he is forceful, persuasive and convincing, as he is in other departments of oratory. He quoted in full the cable dispatch that had been received from the Pan-African Congress, and commented upon them, one by one. His forewedge and sagacity as a leader never were more clearly demonstrated than in his perceiving the importance of holding a mass meeting as quickly as possible after the announcement in the public press of opposition to the Universal Negro Improvement Association by the Pan-African Congress, and its openly declared repudiation of its principles and objects; for in this way the President-General has been able, by a resumation to the world of what the U. N. I. A. stands for and is aiming to achieve, to stem the tide of unfavorable and harmful influence to the association that might set in against it, and which, it cannot be denied, was the underlying motive of Du Bois and his associates in giving out the press reports alluded to. And in this the able leader of the U. N. I. A. has met with signal success. The statement made by Candace, the delegate from Guadaloupe, who said that it asked in choose, he "would preface to be a Frenchman first, and a Negro afterwards," was shot to pieces with stinging ridicule and bitter rage. Mr. Garvey showed how irrational such a statement was, how aburd that one could place nationality above race, and that any Negro taking such a stand cannot be trusted on loyal to his race, and is unworthy of the respect and confidence of other Negroes as a leader. The speaker said he had no apology whatever to make for the slogan "Africa for Africans, at home and abroad," and that millions of Ameri- Discussing Dr. DuBols as an individual, the President General said that DuBols was the culprit who had attempted to tear down the great genius of Tuskegee, but that "he will have a harder time in trying to tear down the Harderian Negro Improvement Association, with the result that his efforts will be absolutely bare of success." Mr Garvey said he expects in another two and a half months to take a trip abroad, when he will visit Paris, Berlin and London, "in order to let the white people of Europe know that the true feeling and true sentiment of the new Negro is: "No camouflage, no deception, but a free and a redeemed African!" In closing Mr Garvey said that the U. N. L. A. had no desire openly to oppose Mr. DuBois, but that seemingly DuBois and his followers wont all the way to Paris from the United States for the express purpose of "starting something." "The Universal Negro Improvement Association has established the policy of not interfering," he declared, "with anybody, especially Negroes trying to do the best they can in their own way for the good of their race); but if anybody starts a fight with the U. N. L. A. the U. N. L. A. is not going to stop until it finishes it. I believe that the sound policy for Negroes the world over to adopt is to develop along their racial lines, socially, industrially, politically." Short as the time was for announcing to the public that the mass meeting would be held, the house was packed to overflowing when the meeting opened, with nearly all the members of the High Executive Council on the platform, regaled in the robes of their office, a full choir, band and uniformed auxiliary divisions. The President General presided, and after two solos sung by Madame Marie Barrier Houston and Madame Alice Fraser Robinson the meeting began. When this young pianist made her debut in Paris the audience im-merged with her as the artist of the very first rank. Her subsequent appearances both in France and the United States have one continuous series of success.

Hence, ordered men and women delegated to the tor of The Negro World and Assistant President General, being called upon Negro literature, and while his writings redown to the credit of American Geney, Provisional President of Sir William said that as every one present know the purpose of the meeting, namely, "To give the Hon. Marcus Garvey an opportunity to make a suitable, open, public reply to Dr DuBois and the delegates to the Pan-African Congress sitting in Paris, he would not say much. In his few remarks, however, he declared that Dr DuBois ambition to be the leader of the Negro race could never be realized for the reason that "notwithstanding his scientific mind, his poetic insight, his brilliant style, and his great gifts and attainments as scholar writer and philosopher, his polished manners and his courtly bearing, he lacks that knowledge of human nature, that magnetism to move the masses that a born leader must possess. Besides which Dr DuBois fails to perceive the needs the aspirations and the great future possibilities of the Negro race from the viewpoint of the Negro as to his highest and best interests. DIR WM. A. FERRIÑ GPEAKA Your Excellency, President-General, Officers of the Executive Council Members of the New York Local and Friends. I understand that the Hon. Marcus Garvey will tonight pay his respects to Dr DuBois, and inasmuch as I know that he can take care of him, I shall make only a passing reference to Dr. DuBola. First I desire to say something about the Klu Klux Klan. The Greeks said that "Those whom the gods would destroy they first make mad" It seems that Brother Simmons of Georgia had a big idea. The original Klu Klux Klan did business on too small an order, and he wanted to do it on a gigantic scale; he wanted an organization that would take the light not only out of the Negro, but out of the Jew, out of the Catholics, and out of the foreign born American citizen, too. Not only that, but he proposed building up a super-government in this country, having in their initiation an oath of allegiance more binding than that of the Constitution on the citizen of the United States. The result is that the Klu Klux Klan will get what its is due in a very few weeks. Now, regarding Dr DuBola, you will observe that in yesterday a paper he and his generals without an army (laughter) paid their respects to the Hon Marous Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. I have known DuBols ever since I was a boy. He has been very ambitious he is a polished aristocrat, a born writer, a master of the resources of the English language. Yet when he was a professor in Wilberforce University he worked against President Mitchell. Then he was for some time a supporter of Dr. Booker T. Washington, afterwards he thought he was big enough to cut loose from Dr Washington and launched out against him. Then he got under the wing of Trotter. Trotter desired a man to represent the opposition against Washington, a man of literary attainments, and DuBols became the "black Jesus" of the opposition crowd. Then Trotter and DuBols formed the Niagara movement, and he (DuBols) remained in that organization until he got too big for that, which resulted in his withdrawal from it. He finally got so puffed up that Trotter and his former associates stopped boosting DuBols. DuBols Still Hope for Negro Leader- Here sir William Ferris took up in detail Dr. DuBois' literary career as a writer, and, continuing, said: Dr. DuBois, notwithstanding his literary prestige, has his eye focussed on Negro leadership. Nothing could withstand him, it seems, until a short, broad-shouldered, deep-chested, strong, gifted, talented youth from Jamaica came upon the scene of action and organized the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and a year ago, when Dr. DuBois sat in Madison Square Garden and saw thousands upon thousands of Negroes conferring upon this youthful, eloquent advocate or the cause of his race the highest honors of leadership, he realised that Marcus Garvey had done what he had tried to accomplish for more than twenty years, but in which he had failed—namely, to get the Negroes to cone together. And so Dr. DuBois feels that if he can only stop the onward march of Marcus Garvey, he can only stop the onward progress of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, he may yet realise his dream of Negro leadership, looming up not only as a forerunner literary genius, but also as a leader of the masses. But, notwithstanding his scientific mind, his poetic insight, his brilliant style as a writer his polished mumms and courtly bearing, Dr. DuBois takes that knowledge of human nature, that knowledge of toil and admiration the attention of the mumms and their voluntary bidding to the influence of his will, his judgment and his advice which a born leader of men must command and possess. Hence, while he will always find a place in Negro literature, and while his writings redown to the credit of American literature, he can never realize his dream on this planet as a leader of men. Qualities of Leadership In order to move men a man must have not only a great mind, he must also have a great heart and a great soul. He must have not only intellectual attalments he must not only sympathize intellectually with the masses, but he must also emotionally sympathize with them a quality that Dr. Du Bois lacks but which Marcus Garvey has (Applause). Wherever I go whether I talk with white men or with colored men the people marvel at the power of the magic power by which the Universal Negro Improvement Association in three and a half years has but up a larger membership than any other Negro ecclesiastical, racial or internal organization in existence today and the fact that Prof William Pickens, who won a prize at 11 stood on this rostrum a week ago Tuesday night, and said the Universal Negro Improvement Association is a great, powerful and most promising human factor in the struggle of the Negro in the present age for his complete emancipation as a race, he struck at the keynote behind this movement. The masses of men are always moved along when you touch the spring of their activity. No matter how poor a man is, no matter how humble he is, no matter how his situation in life, the love of liberty is native to him it is instinctive with him to better his condition, to get some of the fruits of his labor and of his prosperity and to be recognized by others as a man is a native impulse, a common instinct of human beings. And it is because the Universal Negro Improvement Association has appealed to that instinct, as no other organization has, that it has succeeded in marshaling and coralling together hundreds of thousands of black men all over the world (Applause). Great Future Possibilities of the Race I believe in the future destiny of the Negro race, because I believe in God, and because I believe in the possibilities of the Negro. I believe that a race that could teach the world how to smelt iron, a race that could discover America before Christopher Columbus discovered it, and teach the Indians to grow sweet potatoes, totacco and peanuts, a race that could bring civilization to the Aztecs and to the Peruvians, a race that in the heart of Africa could affect the civilization of the world in the Middle Ages, a race that on the plains of Ethiopia and of Egypt could lay the foundation of a civilization from which springs the civilization of the modern world—such a race as is the Negro race. I believe has unlimited possibilities within itself for achievement and self-development. We believe in the Bible (which is by no means to be treated insignificantly), which says - What shall it protect a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul? And it is because the 'N. I A has taught the Negro to find his soul that I believe in his destiny under God's providence, and that his present achievements are but a foretaste of what will happen when millions and millions of Negroes the world over will have aroused themselves to their racial destiny and will go forth to conquer and achieve. (Loud applause.) MR. GARVEY'S SPEECH Holding in his hand a sheaf of newspapers. Mr Garvey arose and said: "I have before me tonight clippings from the local papera. These clippings are cable dispatches received in this country through the medium of the Associated Press from Parla. They were cabled to this country by the representative of the Associated Press as gathered during the holding of the Pan-African Congress in Paris, as engineered by Dr W E DuBois I will read them for your information " (From New York Sun) AFRICA FOR AFRICANS' IS NOT NEGRO BLOGAN The Blacks in Senegal and Haiti oppose Marous Garvey Paris, Sept. 6.—France's two Negro deputies do not agree with Marous Garvey's contention of "Africa for Africans". Diagna, the colored deputy from Senegal, from Guada-loma today declared: "We do not hate the white race. What we seek is conciliation and collaboration. Our evolution and development depend upon relations with the French people. Everything if we were isolated in Africa." Libera, Candace pointed out, is less developed than the French colonies that have black populations, and asks us to choose "the Negro deputy to reply; I am black, but I am French first." Candace attacked America's attitudes toward the colored race and ex-President Obama by refusing them racial equality. Bellegrade, the Haitian Minister, who is here for the Negro Congress, corroborated the attitude of the colored depopulation. ored men and women delegates to the Pan-African Congress in session here, today headed by Dr W E B DuBois of New York, repudiated the plan of Mar. 1, 1961, to establish a Pan-African of Africa, of Africa, for the Africans. Dr DuBois said. The coined population cannot withstand the African climate. We cannot oust the Europeans and end their treaty. Another reason says that Negroes from fourteen nations are holding a Pan African Congress and have decided not to support the program of Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of Africa, and other American Negroes for the establishment of a Black Republic in Africa. Continuing the article reads: Instead of sacrificing present nations to the Congress insists Negroes must endeavor to take greater advantage of their opportunities under preaching conditions. The body is firm against efforts of the Negro establishment to ally themselves with the Russian Senator Aubert summed up the attitude of the Congress when he declared Rather than return to Africa and reenter the United States to learn a Frenchman Garvey's Africa Africans' scheme was sidetracked by a suggestion that the League of Nations be asked to remove the color line on all menstrual periods. That sums up the expressions of the gentlemen who are responsible for the Pan-African Congress. Now I want to read a few extracts from some of the white gentlemen in this country, preachers and others whose sentiments are expressed in the extracts I have selected on the matter of the Ku Klux Klan. The first I shall read is a letter and it is an follows (From Y. Y Sun) FRIEND OF THE KU KLU X KL. X "What Is Wrong With It? Asks One Admirer" To the Editor of the Sun Sir. The persistent criticism of the Ku Klux Klan which is being indulge in by the press and by politicians of the country is that it is mistaken that the politicians do it to salvive the foreign vote, and the newspapers do it to keep in with the foreign born advertisers. What is wrong with the Ku Klux Klan? In order to become a member of the Klan, you must be a member of the Klan, Protestant, of good m or character. It is an American institution. It bars the black man. It bars the foreign born. Barring these, groups of people it is open to men who stand for and live in their native land and who are not members of the Klan. Regardless of adverse criticism the Ku Klux Klan is going to grow in power and before long will exert an awful political influence in this land of ours. We should all of us be persecuted by the Klan, officers held by native American to the exclusion of foreign born. As for our colored population, the Southern people understand know and like black folks better than Northern people do, and they know there are at least black men who must be handled roughly. America and Americans exclusively? In the light of such sentiments as those expressed in that letter representing, as they do the opinions of a portion of the white people in this country, an element that is one of the most dangerous foes of the Negro race in America and that is growing larger and larger owing to the spread of the illegal and disloyal propaganda in view of such statements as that letter contains you can see the absurdity the inconsistency of the opinions expressed by Dr. DuBois and his associates in the Pan-African Congress when posing as leaders and representatives of their race. Defense of Ku Klux Next is a defense of the Ku Klux Klan by a white minister the Rev Dr Caleb A. Ridley of Atlanta, Ga. a lecturer, in a speech delivered before an audience in Tulsa, Okla. It is in an article that appeared in the New York Glube, date August 11 1921 in which the lecturer says, among other things—a praacher, mind you, a great divine claiming to represent Jesus Christ on earth—that "a white man is a white man, whether he lives in New Jersey in Indiana, in Oklahoma, or in Georgia, and that "It is a white man job to see that civilization comes under the domination of no inferior race so long as he lives." I will take, first, the expression of the thirty deputies to Dr DuBois's congress—men who have big positions and big titles given them by white folks—and I will show you the character of the company in which Dr DuBois likes to be and now has around him in the Pan-African Congress. He is in the company of black men in Paris, one of whom says, with the unanimous approval of them all, "If I were asked to choose I would reply, I am black, but I am French first." Now, let us go back to the anual existence of the individual, I used a black mother and a black father. Can you imagine that they could have conceived me as a British first before I was conceived as their offspring? (Laughter.) Just argue that out for yourselves. How impossible it is for a man to be first of a nationality before he was completely born. He was part of a man and a part of God's own image before he was brought to see the light of day, therefore he must first be HOWARD UNIVERSITY WASHINGTON, D.C. Founded by GENERAL O. O. HOWARD J.

(Applause) All sensible people know that, and if the leadership that DuBois and his associates are going to give us is that which is based upon any belief contrary to this, then I say we will bury them now (laughter) for we do not want men of that turn of mind as leaders of the Negro race. The thing is proposterous, monstrous, particularly when on the other hand, you stop and consider the sentiment rapidly spreading in this country as represented in the Ku Klux Klan and the fact that the spirit of the Ku Klux Klan is in 80 or 90 percent of white Americans. Of course, only Simmons and his crew have nerve enough to avow openly the principles of the Klan and defiantly to demonstrate Ku Klux Klanism but it is in the hearts and souls of others who are not manly and bold enough openly to demonstrate it. Consider the statement made by that write minister before a Tulsa audience that "a white man is a white man whether in Georgia, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Indiana or anywhere" and that he is a white man first and everything else afterwards as far as he a white man is concerned. Now what are you going to do about the situation? Here you have two leaders and two extremes—one of power who is clinging to his racial identity, the other who has no power and who is giving way, subordinating and destroying his racial identity the greatest weapon that the Negro has for his development. But specifically speaking, it is come to Dr. DuBois (Laughter). What is his program? DuBois Program As far as we have analyzed him and far as we have studied him, we have discovered that this is his program Dr. DuBois says, and the Pan-African Congress gives expression to it—that Negroes must settle down where they are in white communities, and work out the destiny there. Do you know what that means? It means that Dr. DuBois tells us to remain here until we get killed (applause) remain here until we are ready to be killed. Because according to the attitude of those white men who represent the Ku Klux Klan, America now is and always will be a white man a country 'and any attempt to the contrary is going to bring about civil warfare, in which the weaker must go down and around the power of the stronger. It is only a question of time. The White Man's Game If Dr. Dubois had any sense, he would have seen through the white man's game in America since Emancipation. The moment Abraham Lincoln agreed the Emancipation Proclamation, the white man started to think how he could solve the new problem of the Negro. He saw that the Negro could not be slaughtered by a wholesale killing, in that it would be a blot against American civilization. He realized that he could not continue to emulate Negro according to the old system, because the sentiment of civilization was against slavery. He had to adopt some new means, hence some new method of solving the Negro problem to his satisfaction, which meant the simple execution of the Negro in America. The plan was this: "Now that America is undeveloped, and we have but 25,000 people in America—a number not large enough to develop the country as we want to develop it—30,000,000 being white, and 40,000,000 being black, we will use the 40,000 blacks until we have built up the country the way that we want it and when we have done this, and we have become independent of them economically when we are no longer in need of them; we will throw them off and set them starve economically, and die of themselves and by themselves, or emigrate. Then no one can accuse us of being hard or inhuman in our action toward Negroes, because we will not have killed them all off as with one blow we will not have massacred them, through economic pressure, they will be forced either to starve and die—and we have no objection to burying them after they are dead—or to emigrate elsewhere, we care not where." That has been the plan of the white man since Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Before the war you saw the hearty welcome extended to white men from all parts of the world to come into the United States of America. Why? An open invitation was given to white men from Ireland, Scotland, England, Russia, Germany—in fact, from all parts of the world, to come over to this country, let it so. And they came here by the thousands and the hundreds of thousands every year. What was the object and purpose of this? The idea was to build up a vast white population in America, so as to make the white people here independent of the assistance of the Negro, thereby placing them in a position whereby they could throw off the Negro economically and cause him to die by starvation. The war came before the plan had developed very far, the population of whites, however, had reached 90,000,000 with 10,000,000 Negroes. In sixty years it had grown from 30,000,000 to 90,000,000 whites, so that, at the rate at which they were coming in, in another hundred years the white population in the world was 900,000. Now, what has been the attitude of the white man toward the Negro since his emancipation from slavery? The white man a attitude has been one of wicked diabolical prejudice, one of refusal to associate with the Negro an attitude of Jim Crowism, an attitude of segregation an attitude of drawing the line of demation, based strictly on color in the life industrial. Now even though they have not reached the apex of their intention industrially as far as the development of this country is concerned, if they have demonstrated the degree of prejudice they have in these years since they started their plan, how much more prejudice against us will they not become in the next hundred years, when they will have numbered 400,000,000, instead of only 80,000,000 as today? That is the problem the Negro has to face in America for the next hundred years. Yet Du Bois tells you that you must be satisfied with conditions where you are, and wait until that time comes finding yourselves knocked up against a situation from which you will find it impossible to extricate yourselves. Program of the U. N. I. A. The Universal Negro Improvement Association comes forward, therefore with a program which seeks not to let the Negro cast down his bucket where he is, but to have the bucket suspended and at the same time have a desire to build up himself as an independent force, as an independent factor in the country that God Almighty gave him—in a country that nature gave him—in a country that Providence gave him when He said "Let there be light! You cannot get away from the fact that the black man—the colored man—native habitat is Africa. (Applause) They have not been able to establish—scientists and others—that Negroes originally were born to America, that Negroes were originally born to Asia or to Europe, but all agree that Negroes were born originally to the climates of Africa. Where DuBois and those who think as he thinks get the idea that Negroes cannot stand the African climate is beyond the power of my imagination. The Negro has stood slavery for over 250 years with his naked body, coming from a hot climate and going to a cold one and some Negroes can stand hell itself (Great applause). The statement that we cannot withstand the African climate, I repeat, is amazing and amusing—in reality, mere cannage (renewed applause), for all sensible people know that the Negro can stand anything, and can stand things after all other races have failed. An illustration of this is seen in the fact that when all the other soldiers of other races had failed at the German battle front, it was the Negro who came forward and was able to stand the hell shots of the Germans. A Method in DuBois' Madness But DuBois and his associates are not such fools as we think they are. they are simply playing foolish to be Continued on Page 11. 7 j Bee RE, po 1: a2. peta 8S GP PIE hse aE ay ~ SES eR ET SES eu tes sas . ‘ * eT R Elta ae ge oe vf CNT a PP udbay ES NIE MAR aed SOULE MANU Barr STARR TOT ES Pitti aay a Seep ye . fiestas usretloe'e ng a oeh IN 28 te IS a ses Bae Doe Bae ee ae ea ES reve aie ae RRR are HRS HS gs Ofek Aaa te sie 2s AS a Sa ag Ue ada agg ag resay ee ca eee eee Beg Nee ea Mk ces) ssw nin eatin ae ED Se ld ke al he RE USACE eh ein eased sai RU ata eee ane See Nees ee SSeS ee tena LL Heed SS SS a a EE EE Storch SE a Ra THROWE OF ABYSSINIA AT STAKE IN BATTLE “AFRICAN REDEMPTION FUND” Started by tho Universal Negro Improvement Associa- tion for the Liberation of Africa—All Negroes Asked to Subscribe Five Dollars or Moro Sporting Rules to Govern Continent Forces—Abys- sinia the Only Wholly Independent People in Africa CONSTANTINOPLE.

DU BOIS IN GAY PAREE DURING the past week Dr. W. E. Du Bois and Messrs. M. Diagne and Candace, the moving spirits in the so-called Pan-African Congress meeting in Paris, France, have sent out statements through the Associated Press regarding the "Africa for the Africans" bugle call of His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey, the Provisional President of Africa, and their desire to remain citizens of America or France rather than citizens of Africa. We will not raise the quid juris, but the quid facti question here. As educated gentlemen Messrs. Du Bois, Diagne and Candace have the right and prerogative to think for themselves and express their own views on the vexed social, racial, industrial, economic, political and religious questions which haraas and disturb the peace of modern society. Whether or not we agree with them, the privilege of freedom of thought and freedom of utterance is one of the privileges which humanity has won through bloodshed, sacrifice and martyrdom. Just as the Irishman, German, Italian or Russian who migrates to America and resides here has the right and privilege of becoming a naturalized American citizen or holding his allegiance to his mother country, so Dr. Du Bois has the right and privilege of remaining in America and remaining an American citizen or returning to Africa and becoming a citizen of Liberia, Abyssinia or Dahomey. Messas, Disgne and Candace likewise have the right and privilege of remaining in France and remaining a French citizen or returning to Africa and becoming a citizen of Liberia, Abyssinia or Dahomey. Modern public opinion gives a man the right to choose where he shall earn his bread and the right to claim his citizenship where he earns his bread or where he and his near ancestors were born. Regarding the much-vexed question of social equality, we have this to say: Unfortunately, while the late Dr. Booker T. Washington was endowed with native gifts as an orator and while he possessed executive and administrative ability to a high degree, his knowledge of philosophy, psychology, history, sociology, anthropology, ethnology and political science was very limited. He knew as much about those subjects as the average high school graduate. The fatal mistake and fatal blunder of his famous Atlanta speech, which launched him into the sea of fame, was speaking of political and social equality in one and the same breath as if they were one and the same thing. And the unfortunate aftermath of that famous speech was that the line of demarkation was not drawn between social equality and equality before the law, between social equality and political equality, civic rights and economic opportunity. The right to work in an office or factory, the right to eat in a restaurant, sleep in a hotel, enjoy a sleeper or stateroom when traveling, the right to cast your vote or hold office is not the same thing as the privilege of being entertained as a guest in a man's home, of winning and dining with him and courting his daughter. Citizenship in any country does not include the right of a man to invade his neighbor's home, invite himself to dine, butt in on his private dinner parties orceptions and accompany him on his week-end and pleasure trips. Modern society gives each man the right to decide who he shall invite to his home and who he shall select as his pals. So until Messrs. Du Bois, Diagne and Candace define what they mean by social equality we cannot pronounce judgment upon their views. For ourselves we want educational opportunity, economic opportunity, political rights, civic privileges and care nothing whatever about utility. But this is where we enter a demurrer against the so-called Pan-African Congress. We don't see any "Pan" to it and any "African" allies. Therefore the title seems to us to be a misnomer. For delegates to a Pan-African congress to rise and say, "We are not Africans, but Americans and Frenchmen; we have more interest in America and in France than Africa," seems to be incongruous. If nearly all of the delegates are Americans and Frenchmen, how can it be called a Pan-African congress? They say that sometimes even Muslim hods. And Dr. Du Bois evidently nodded when he named his social gathering a Pan-African congress. Dr. Du Bois had sent out a general invitation to Liberia, Monaco, Algeria, Sierra Leone, the Gold Coast, Nigeria, Egypt, Sudan, Nigeria, Canada, the United States of America, the British West Indies, the Dutch West Indies, French West Indies, British Guinea, Guinea Honduras, Central America and South America, the Nigerian delegates to discuss affairs Africa as Marcus Garvey was meeting the First and Second International Congress of Pan-Africanism, and his gathering a Pan-African congress. Monaco, Walters and Wm. Monroe Trotter sent out gen- President Dr. De Ribe did the same thing that he did in 1914 when Monument, in hoping to form the N. A. A. Commission, requested Pan-African Congress. He sent the commission, and sent our invitations to an ex-servant to all allied nations to a pink tie affair, and to Dr. De Ribe, who was never decided by the commission of the world he convention assembled as their recognized champion and spokesman, call his handful of con- ferees whom he assembled a Pan-African Congress? Did the fact that Miss Mary White Ovington and Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard, grandson of William Lloyd Garrison and editor of the Nation say "We have examined Dr. Du Bois by Anglo-Saxon standards and pronounce him fit and fine intellectually, morally, aes- thetically and socially" make Dr. Du Bois the leader of his race? That sort of approbation might admit Dr. Du Bois to the Hotel Somerset in Boston, the Taft Hotel in New Haven, the Waldorf- Astoria in New York and the Ambassador and the Malborough- Blenheim in Atlantic City, but it would not necessarily make him a leader of the black people of the world.

C Thirty ye- ored superintender own school affairs Hospital and ran a Carlyle, Ruskin and Matthew Arnolds, who stood high in English letters, pronounced Charles Eliot Norton, the celebrated Dante scholar and art critic and art historian of Harvard University, the most cultured, scholarly and thoughtful man in America. Ruskin even went still further and stated that Prof Norton was the only American he had met who was a real gentleman. That was very consoling to Prof Norton. But it did not make him the leader and representative of American thought in the same sense that Prof. Royce, Prof. James, Prof. Sumner, Dr. George Trumbull Ladd and Dr. Wm. Hayes Ward were. That is to say, while Prof. Norton made the best prose translation of Dante that has come to our notice, and while with the possible exception of Dr. George Trumbull Ladd he was the most versatile and erudite scholar America has produced, he was regarded and still is regarded, like Prof. George Santayana is now regarded, as a lone scholar standing in solitary grandeur as an Alpine peak rather than as a leader and representative of American thought. The same may be said of Dr. Du Bois, although we do not regard him as an Alpine peak in scholarship, because he is not a profound philosopher and original thinker, but is rather a man of scholarly attainments and a magician in words who possesses that magic touch that makes his writings readable and enjoyable. Dr. Du Bois is a bright and shining example of Negro culture under Caucasian tuition. He shows that a man of Negro blood can acquire the knowledge of American and German universities, can master the resources of the English language and play upon it as a skilled organist can bring melody out of an organ. He shows also that a man of Negro blood can also master the ethical code and the refinement and niceties of dress and manner of Caucasian civilization. While not showing the Negro's creative, constructive and original force in modern civilization, Dr. Du Bois pre-eminently shows the Negro's ability to absorb civilization on the side of dress, manners and morals as well as on the side of scholarship and literary style. But this by no means makes Dr. Du Bois a leader of the black masses of the world, because a leader must have followers. Dr. Du Bois only represents the N. A. A. C. P., which has 1 per cent of American Negroes enrolled in its membership and probably 1 or 2 per cent. more as sympathizers. So Dr. Du Bois directly represents 2 or 3 per cent of the American Negroes, less than 1 per cent of the Negroes of the Western Hemisphere, and less than one-tenth per cent of the Negroes of the world. Since then Dr. Du Bois directly represents but a small per cent, of Negroes of the Western Hemisphere and but a very small per cent. of the total black population of the world, and since he was never elected in convention assembled as the leader of the American Negroes, the leader of the Negroes of the Western Hemisphere or the Negroes of the world as their leader, we challenge his right to call his gathering of invited intellectuals a Pan-African Congress. Mind you, we do not challenge the right of Dr Du Bois to assemble his friends and associates to a conference. We do not challenge his right to have his own thought and express his own views regarding the social, civic, political, industrial and economic status of the Negro. We do not challenge his preference to remaining in America a citizen of the United States rather than going to Africa and becoming a citizen of an African republic and African kingdom, but we do challenge the right of Dr. Du Bois calling a small and select gathering of personally invited and self-appointed rather than elected deputies and delegates a Pan-African Congress when there is nothing "Pan" and almost nothing "African" about it at all, for it is anything and everything but a Pan-African Congress. But the learned doctor knows that he will get more publicity and press notice by calling it Pan-African. W. H. F. THE UNPARDONABLE SIN SO complex is the problem of races that it is not infrequent that we find persons of serious mind disagreeing on the methods best to pursue to get the best result. There cannot much harm come from honest and conscientious disagreement upon desired methods when the questions admit of some doubt. Men have disagreed in this respect throughout the ages, and we fear that when Gabriel blows his final dirge you will find mortals debating whether it is best to go to the Father with wings attached to the shoulder blades or to take one of the latest improved aeroplanes and reach our bliss by the motor route. All will agree that heaven is the place to go, but we may split hairs on the method of traveling there. Problems such as African redemption will admit of several angles of approach. One will see it this way and another will perhaps look through inverted lens. The method will not be so paramount so long as the necessity of redeeming Africa from white tyrants is ever present. And here is where the learned W. E. B. Du Bois, moving spirit in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, fell completely down. So long as Dr. Du Bois and his Pan-African Congress recognized the necessity of the redemption of Africa from white misrule we wondered why they did not come into the U N L. A. and work as we are working, but we did not discredit their effort altogether, thinking that we disagreed only in method and not in the objective. But when the Pan-African Congress gave out to the world that "Africa for the Africans" is not the slogan for the Negroes, and that the Negroes would do better under white rule, and when Candace spoke of being a Frenchman first, and when Dr. Du Bois himself said practically the same thing about the American Negro by stating that he could not stand African climate, etc., we were thoroughly convinced that Du Bois and his Pan-African Congress are entirely out of harmony with the new Negro, and are not working for the interest of the black people of the world. Any person who will contend that the Negro is better off when he is ruled by others than when he rules himself is either a fool or has been "fooled with." Du Bois has too many degrees to be a fool, consequently we have no other conclusion to reach than that he has been "fooled with," and it would be interesting to know how much did he get. It is unfortunate that more of our people do not understand more fully the aims and the objects of the U. N. I. A. It is the only organization working unremittingly for the interest of the four hundred million Negroes of the world. One by one other organizations, which spring up with great promise, are being weighed in the balance and found wanting. The Niagara movement, the Pan-African Congress all sounded a splendid note, but died through the force of their own self-serving. The world must head Garvey, for it is written in the elites and carved in stones that Dui Bolis has been "bought and paid for." He will not do longer to trust with a mission no escaped as a race's destiny. OF a truth he has committed the "unpaiddonable sin." R. L. P.

ATHENS, Sparta and other Greecian States so weakened themselves by the Peloponnesian war that they fell an easy victim to Philip of Macedon fifty years after the close of the struggle. The same has been true of the American Negro. He has been so divided into rival factions in politics that he has been an easy prey for political bosses. The same has been true of the colored people of Washington, D.C. Thirty years ago the colored people of Washington had a colored superintendent of colored schools and ran and managed their own school affairs. They had a colored surgeon in Freedman's Hospital and ran and managed Freedman's Hospital. But they began to wrangle among themselves. Internal rivalries and jealousies arose and the result has been that the white people began to control the colored schools and Freedman's Hospital. Some of the members of the faculty and alumni of Howard University have complained of the iron hand, of former Presidents Gordon and Thurkield and the present president, Dr Durkee. The fact that the colored professors have not presented a united front prevented Prof. Kelly Miller, who has rendered the race and the university illustrious service, from being elected president, and rendered them practically helpless under a white president. Over in the law school some discussion has arisen as to whether Prof. Wm. H. Richards, a ripe scholar, polished gentleman and able teacher, who has served the university loyally and faithfully for over thirty years, should remain as librarian of the law school. In a white university, instead of the question being raised as to the demotion of a man with the ability, experience and long and faithful service of Prof. Wm. H. Richards, it would be a question of promotion and elevation. The Howard University law school has capable and efficient colored men upon its faculty. One of them, Prof. Wm. H. H. Hart, has had a distinguished career. We trust that these gentlemen will mobilize their forces and work harmoniously. If they do the school will eclipse even its splendid record in the past.

Calvin, the city editor, Mr. A. V. Craig, the editor, has a bright and promising writer. the Almighty has commanded me to say to the ministers unless they make an unconditional surrender and come into the unity of the faith no one will be saved. (See Ephesians iv. 1-11) Furthermore, see I Cor. x. 15-20, and see God's message to His people. Behold Israel after the flesh are not they which eat of the sacrifices and are partakers of the altar. What say they that the idol is anything or that which is offered in sacrifices to idolize is anything? But I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to devils and not to God, and I would not that ye should have a fellowship with devil. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of the devil. Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He? Please notice the so-called churches are all the Gentiles own work. Jesus Christ had nothing to do with it at all. Please note I Cor. lil. 11-15, for other foundation can no man say that than which is laid in Jesus Christ. Now, if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble will come. Every man's work shall be made manifest for they shall declare it because it shall be revealed by fire and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. The church of the Living God is the one and only church written in heaven and also in the Bible (See I Tim. iii. 14-18, also Heb. 21; 21-25). My dear follow ministers! The Lord has appeared unto me and showed me how to reorganize all the so-called churches in His name and how to anoint all ministers with all, that they all will be in good and regular standing with God instead of men. God commands me to do this, because they have gone and established their own righteousness and have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God. 1 nm. Sincerely the prophet of God. PRINCE C ALLEN 729 Orchard street, New Haven, Conn U. N. L. A. IN MORON, CAMAGUEY, CUBA September 2, 1921. The Editor, The Negro World. Dear Sir, I notice in the issue of The Negro World of the 27th ult. that a scheme was put before the convention for the establishment of medical and surgical departments in various parts of the world for the benefit of members of the organization in my humble opinion I think no effort should be spared in pushing the proposition into working form, as I believe, as far as this country (Cuba) is concerned, it would be of untold blessing to the thousands of our people who at times suffer great hardship from want of a place of their own where they can be treated in case of illness. Those who have labored here for any length of time will readily understand and appreciate what I am writing about. The Spaniards here have got such institutions for the benefit of their people, and it is but reasonable that aid should be provided for those of our people who may not be able to pay for their medical assistance. I sincerely hope that our people give their united support in putting over this great scheme, which will all be to their benefit. Dr. Olson must be complimented for his great move, and ingest of criticizing, all should give him their best assistance in bringing the matter to a success. I remain, very truly yours.

A WORD TO MINISTERS Editor Negro World Dear Sir: Please allow me snaco a little while to speak to the Negro pastors all over the world that there is but one church, and Jesus Christ started that one in A. D. 32, and if there is any spirit of God in the ministers they should detect the wrong that is in the so-called churches of the world. There is no way for the people to be saved in the present so-called churches, for Revelation says they are the names of blasphemy. Notice one thing: The Negro race was supposed to be organized by some fools, money grabbers, but that organization would not do to save the Negro race and to redeem Africa. So God the Almighty gave Hon. Marvous Garvey the plan how and what to do to reorganize the Negro the world over. What he has done is the salvation of *i* race. If the Negro race is ever a receive everlasting life it will be through the same form. Every so-called church must be reorganized in the name of God. For the Bible teaches there is no other name given under heaven by which man can be saved. Notes given in the *Mystery*: God --- Moron, Camaguey, Cuba. THE EDITOR OF THE NEGRO WORLD, THE KLU KLUX KLAN, THE JEWS AND FIGHTING NEGROES THE EDITOR OF THE NEGRO WORLD, THE KLU KLUX KLAN, THE JEWS AND FIGHTING NEGROES --- The sad, sad story comes to us through the New York World. What is all this about, and what have the Negroes done this highly civilized world' The Negroes fought in every war this government has had; they have demonstrated their worth before the world and died by the white man's side and saved his jacket from the dominant forces of the great German onslaught during 1917 and 1918. He not only did that, but climbed the fort at the fight for America's rise in the American and Spanish war, and also in Flanders, Ypres. Hill 304 and the Verdun Hill. And now he is not a man' it is not a pity to look at this Klan's foolishness? They will soon learn in the near future who the Negroes really are and know also who he was. I am really sorry to see the best country seem to run away with its best brains to allow this sort of stuff to spoil America's good game. Have the Negroes ever committed treason to this or any other land under any government flag in which they lived? History will tell you no. Then why is it the whole world wants to oppose the Negroes and force every conceivable wrong upon them? Well, I'll answer him directly. The other fellow wishes to make this world over and have it to suit himself, but he never will get it that way. This world is not ours, it is God's. Some of us will be here when every white man will be dead Negroes will live here as Christ said if ye believe in the Father, believe also in me, for I, the Lord, am God, and beside me there is none else. Thus saith the Lord: I form the light and create darkness; I make peace and cast out evil; I the Lord do all these things. Drop down, ye heaven, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: Let the earth open and let them bring forth salvation and let righteousness: Let the earth open and let them have created it. Isaiah xlv, 7-8) Then, I say, fear not what man may say. God of Isaan, God of Israel, tells you stand fast and be not amazed; fear not. I am with you even to the end of the world, for ye are my witness. I the Lord, created you for myself. Take the Negroes and the Jews out of the country and you will see what will happen. The Klan has no power against our Master. They are only working destruction against themselves and their future generations. We Negroes are here to stay till God removes us. We are waiting for Him to bring us back into our own country. This He has promised, and He is not less than His word. Let the Klan come. We are unfaired. Prepare to die for our rights and justice, which is due to every man under the sun. H H. JOHNSON. New York City, September 1, 1921. Editor The Negro World. Better The Negro World. Dear Sir. Allow me to use your noble newspaper as a means to express myself. The return of the Hon Marcus Garvey to New York City may be greeting. While I had not the pleasure of hearing the Hon Marcus Garvey, yet I had much pleasure in reading of his good and noble work in bringing the race together. We all should unite and help in this noble cause. Hon. Wm H Ferris, accept my congratulations for your help in the good cause. May God spare you and all the leaders. Fraternally, ROBERT A.

Volstead, chairman of the Committee on the Judiciary of the House of Representatives, indorsing the Dyer anti-lynching bill now before Congress, the Federal anti-lynch law is indored. The telegram reads as follows: Hon. Andrew J. Volstead, Permit me to urge prompt and favorable action by the Judiciary Committee respecting the Dyer hhL, H. R. 18. I believe a legislative expression opposing tyranny is representative of the best thought of the people. "UMMETT D. BOYLE, Governor of Nevada." ORATORY, SPORTS AND BARBECUE WERE FEATURES CELEBRATION BY NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION Representative Gathering at Borden Park, Edmonton, When Congratulatory Speeches Were Made by Prominent Government and Civic Officials EDMONTON, Alberta, Sept 1, 1921. —Representatives of a race of four million people, spread all over the face of the earth, gathered at Borden Park yesterday, and their national colora the Black, Green and Red tricolor, met the eye at every turn. The occasion was the first annual celebration of the Edmonton division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Community League, and the same date was being observed by Negroes all over the world, while at New York the deliberations of thousands of Negro delegates, lasting throughout all the month of August, were just being brought to a conclusion. Program Got Early Start Despite the threatening aspect of the morning, hundreds of Negroes from Edmonton and its district had gathered by 10 a.m. when a program of songs, speeches and instrumental music (through a preliminary to the major portion of the proceedings, which were held at 2:30 p.m. in the refreshment pavilion on the exhibition grounds. That the sympathy of leading white people of the community is with the Negro in his efforts for improvement and uplift became evident when the invited guests and speakers put in appearance, for when the session opened, the platform was occupied by Lieutenant-Governor Brett. Dr McDermid, brother-in-law of the lieutenant-governor and part from Government House, Magistrate Mrs. Emily Murphy, His Worship Mayor Duggan, ex-Mayor Jos. Clarke, Bishop Gray, Major Stafford, A.D.C to the lieutenant-governor, and a number of other prominent persons, while the Federal member for East Edmonton, H A. Mackle, arrived at a later stage in the proceedings. The large hall was well filled with Negroes and interested white sympathisers, when the program opened with songs and a devotional led by Rev H Brooks pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church, followed by the address of welcome delivered by Mrs O. E Brooks, lady president of the association. Aims of Association Mrs Brooks spoke eloquently on the aims and aspirations of the association. They were an undemnominational body, banded together for universal improvement, with a full consciousness of the need for a better day for mankind. The organization aimed to do every possible good to themselves and their fellow men, and they were united in thought and spirit, with the four million of the Negro race who were now holding their second anniversary all over the world. They wanted a place in the sun for every race, and a flag for every nation. The Negro hoped some day when Africa, his native land, was redeemed, to add the colors of his race the Red the Black and the Green, to the dimenions of colors of the free nations of the earth. She tendered a hearty welcome to the distinguished visitors of the day, who were showing their sympathy with the aims and aspirations of the Negro by their presence and support Loyalty to the Empire Mayor Duggan, in a characteristically brief and pointed speech, expressed his pleasure at having been afforded the opportunity of meeting with the members of the association, as he had often desired to find out for himself the aims and aspirations of the organization. The Negro was to be complimented on the achievements already made by his race. The colored race in days now past was a race oppressed, but we have recognized that no man, whatever his color, ought to be oppressed. He was pleased at the loyal references to the flag and the empire, in the address of welcome, for the spirit of loyalty to the empire must be maintained, though he felt that it was not necessary to emphasize this, in speaking to a gathering of the colored people of Edmonton, whose loyalty was unquestioned. He promised his official support to the organization in their efforts for improvement. "You are out to develop a higher type of citizenship among your people, and anything I can do in my official capacity I shall count it both a privilege and a pleasure to do," concluded his worship. Ultimate Aspiration Rev George W Slater, Jr. pastor of Emmanuel A. M. E. Church, in a most eloquent and fervid address, dealt with the question of "The Negro's Ultimate Aspiration," and his remarks proved a source of much enlightenment as to the efforts and progress of the race during fifty years. The Negro people were a great, good and noble people. They have in their veins some of the oldest and noblest blood in the world's history. On the battlefields of the world they had proved their courage a thousand times, for the blood of warrior kings as far distant as the times of ancient Egypt and Greece was their while many of the outstanding figures in religious history were linked up with their race. Moses had married a Negro woman. Some of the Apostles of Jesus of Nazareth were black men. Program of the Race Program of the FACE The American Southland today owns its integrity of the Negro soul, for as a slave he left his stamp on the ruling class of the country when he served in slavery with the same gentility and mobility of character that have characterised him throughout all the ages. The Negro is initiative, adaptive and creative. He is an organizer, having his race, though scattered throughout all the world, organized in every conceivable manner. The speaker quoted statistics showing the progress of the race from 1866 to 1919, as illustrating the progress of the Negro. In 1866 only 10 per cent of the Negro race could read and write, in 1919 90 per cent of them were able to do so. Other figures given are: Colleges and schools, 1866, 15, 1919, 500 Students in public schools, 1866, 100,000, 1919, 1,800,000. Teachers in all schools, 1866, 600; 1919, 38,000. Value of property for higher education, 1866, $80,000, 1919, $22,000,000. Amount expended for higher education, 1866, $700,000, 1919, $15,000,000. Amount raised by Negroes alone, 1866, $80,000; 1919, 1,070,000. Amount spent, 1866, 12,000, 1919, 600,000. Farm owned, 1866, 20,000, 1919, 1,000,000. Wealth of Negroes, 1866, $20,000,000, 1919, $1,500,000,000. Churches, 1866, 700; 1919, 43,000. Public schools, 1866, 50,000; 1212, 250000. The Negro had invented many of the wars best known improvements, including war bomba, an airship stabilizer, anti-ali-crash guns, explosive bullets, an electrically operated gun with which the Germans sheltered Paris, was stated to have been built from pans stolen from a Negro inventor. World Nationality The Negro is not satisfied with his present achievements. He has a vision of world greatness and world nationality. The Allies in the great war had inspired the Negro with the sublimes aims of the world, true democracy and the freedom of small nations. England had freed her slaves, the United States emancipated her bondmen. Four million Negroes, all over the world, were joining in the cry, "Africa for the Africans." Africa would one day be redeemed to them, and then would the Negro be free. Interesting speeches by Bishop Gray, ex-Mayor Clarke, Magistrate Mrs Murphy, Lieut-Gov. Brett and H. A. Mackle, M P. completed the afternoon's proceedings, which were also interposed by songs from the juvenile and senior choirs, rendered in excellent style. Barbeque an Attraction Immediately after the conclusion of the session a move was made on the barbecue, which was in charge of General Flemons. A huge trench had been dug the previous evening by Flemons and his helpers, and at 9 a. m. fire was started in the big pit, across which sixty pounds of young beef was laid across the bars, and the odor of roast beef tickled the palate for a mile around. Ladies of the Black Cross helped serve the slices of succulent meat, which was given free to all comers, and it may be said with perfect truth that never did meat possess a more toothsome flavor than this. The huge joints disappeared like magic, and still the call was for more. White people who failed to turn up at the barbecue little know what they missed, and General Flemons is to be congratulated on the introduction of a real Southland delicacy to the grateful North. At 4:30 p.m. a program of athletic sports was run off with great success, and the evening was devoted to a real old-fashioned jubilee song concert which was attended by a large concourse of both Negro and white people. R. A. Parrish of the Local Board of Trade added the gathering on the occasion of the Good Friday and was promised hearty support from the Negro organization, and a representative of the G. W. V. A. also spoke on the aims of that body. We have seldom seen the expression "from the sublime to the ridiculous" better illustrated than in the so-called "Tan-Negro" Congress that is now masquerading before the French capital. The New York Herald in its cable report presupposes that fourteen nations are represented and have rejected the Garvey African plan. Here is where the ridiculous aspect is so. Why reject what you don't know; get together and examine the plans before appearing ridiculous before the world. But what can be expected of men like W. E. Dukfoa, who has been a failure in all political efforts to form a movement in his own country, as can be shown by the Niagara movement which died of self-adulation and agmizhion, due to the fact that the promoter had no political flexibility to give any ungrant or salve to the votaries except a literary halo, which dissolved itself in the atmosphere and left nothing tangible for its followers to grasp. From the platform of Liberty Hall I have heard from Mr. Garvayne's a challenge for Dr. Dulfois to meet him anywhere and discuss any of these questions, which challenge I afterward read in an issue of The Negro World. So Dr. Dr. Dulfois has remained silent as a chameau or as mystic in the past. I have been able to people simple viewpoints to see the ingress and complemented. But I am THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1921 afraid the distinguished mouthpiece of National Association for the Advancement of the Negro Race, and secretary of the Pan-African Association was safer in taking it to France, where he now emits through the press his rejection of Garvey's plan. The Pan-African Congress has a good number of putative godfathers who have given umbrage to the movement because the "distinguished delegates" have no racial plan to help their brothers in Africa. So far, wherever the native American is concerned, he is indifferent of going anywhere outside territorial America.* When the American Colonization Society was actively engaged in seeking to provide better advantages for the men of color they raised such a rumpus that no advantage accrued to them since that time, except to be buffeted by the waves of adversity. Senator Aubert Stomach is well provided with viana, and while enjoying these gifts, what does he care for the unfortunate Negro whose daily labor for France enhances the republic whose pillage and robbery of territorial Africa is as large as the United States. What, then, can you expect of an Englishman whose tenure in Africa is due to might and sword? It is as examine the wonderful conference in Berlin in 1884 where African territories were under the beautiful trade sphere of influence and their accretal law as were apportioned to the strong nations against the weakling. No army whatever was to be permitted into Africa because the natives were savages and would kill the white robbers. Not no one has any motive in preventing Senator Aubert to exercise his preference to remain a Frenchman. But those who wish to remain Negroes ought to be respected whether they wish the League of Nations to suggest that hair wash to make them look with ironed hair and face bleach to enable them to palm themselves on the community other than what they really are, so that the suggestion by these misguided folk, who think that the League of Nations will pay a scintillation of attention to their vaporings is in keeping with the absurd proposition presented by some fellow under the name of John Cody Gordon, who seems to live in an enchanted paradise where with Aladdin's lamp he can change things at will, or as the manna that fell from the clouds to satisfy the Israelites can be expected in these days. We expect these self-appointed delegates, some from States where they cannot exercise the right to suffrage to return home. We are going to await their report, which we trust will be better than the first so-called Pan-African Congress that except for a few short articles nothing came of it. The picture in the New York Crisis shows it to have been a parlor affair with a few nondescript characters present. LEO ARGIBANI BISHOP FALLOWS ASSAILS KU KLUX The Ku Klux Klan was vehemently assailed as "completely un-American" and "the greatest disintegrating force at work in this country today" by Bishop Samuel Fallows, speaking before the Dill Pickle Club last night. "The Ku Klux Klan strikes at the root of principles upon which this nation was built," said the bishop. "It undertakes to do in a secret manner duties delegated to established institutions. It presumes to be the judge and jury. It is the direct antithesis of Americanism. "It is the greatest disintegrating force at work in America today. It holds all its dealings in secret and under cover of darkness. It is a deliberate insult to 11,000,000 colored people of our nation." Bishop Fallows sketched the history of the organisation from its inception during the Civil War times to the present. "It subjected colored people to such gross indictments that the government was finally obliged to suppress it," he insisted. "It was formally placed on trial as an organization, convicted, condemned and abolished. And that's what should be done today." CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY OF INDEPENDENCE OF LIBERTY FOR NEGROES (Translated from the Sina. ish, Republica De Cuba, Prov. De Camaguey, Alcaldia Municipal De Moron.) MORON, Camaguey, Cuba Aug. 30, 1921. Mr. R. C. Russell. Sir: By the power that has been confided me with chief of executive municipal power, I invite you to the celebration of a feast in the morning for the anniversary of the independence of liberty for the Negroes, which feast has for object "baseball," a comedy, and other literary amusements. You're truly, (Sigged) AGUS. M. LOPEZ, Alcaldia Municipal A Credit to Negro Womanhood—Significant Feature of U. N. I. A. Convention By F. WILCOM ELLEGOR The Women's Industrial and Art Exhibition staged in connection with the Second International Convention of Negroes was a decided success from every point of view. It has now passed into history after a span of thirty-one days, and stands a mile-stone on the association's line of march to the attainment of its alma. Not a Commercial Venture The Women's Industrial and Art Exhibition was not a commercial venture. It was no auction sale refined, no money-raising subterfuge of society. It was conceived in the U. N. L. A. spirit with a view to fostering U. N. L. A. Ideals. It was organized to bring to the public mind some of the talent and ability of Negro women in the industrial sphere, to give an idea of what could be accomplished in the field of art, to demonstrate the possibilities of organized, earnest effort along these avenues. U. N. I. A. Women's Enthusiasm D. N. I. A. Women's Enthusiasm The response to the appeal for enthusiasm was exceedingly gratifying and beyond expectations it served, by the way to furnish proof of the ability of colored women to organize successfully at short notice. The call was answered from afar and near, and reflected the enthusiasm of the women for demonstrating their talent and devoting their time to the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The Location The rooms secured for the exhibition and in which it was held proved altogether too small for the full display of the numerous articles that came from nearly all over the world. Four times the space was needed for the faithful presentation of the exhibits. The location was unique, however, being at the corner of Seventh avenue and 138th street, in full view of and within easy reach of Liberty Hail. Indoored by Convention The U. N. I. A. exhibition differed from that held simultaneously by the N. A. A. C. P at the 185th street library, in that the venture, not being a commercial one, the committee was able to finance the entire scheme by their own manipulation under the ansles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and turned over to the parent body a few hundred dollars after paying all expenses for rent, carotakers, secretaries, portorage, postal charges, music and other things. After all, the success of certain ventures cannot be measured in terms of dollars. The exhibition marked the striking out of the U. N. I. A. upon another line of achievement, and the joy and delight it brought to the womanfolk no less than the enthusiasm it evoked from them alone amply repaid the outlay and expenditure toward the staging of the exhibition. And we are glad to note that the convention, in appreciation of the significance of the undertaking, has insured for it permanence and organized growth by placing it under the wing of the Bureau of Labor and Industry. Attractive Boots There were exhibits from far-off Africa, from South and Central America, from the West Indies and from nearly every State of the Union where the U. N. I. A. is organized. The African exhibits were displayed by M. M. Kinch of Philadelphia, a Liberian missionary and ex-secretaire to Bishop Heard, and excited much interest and admiration. Attracting much attention also were the booth of the Hon. Marus Garvey, containing articles from Cuba, the United States, and the Jamaica, and that of Mr. Durant, replete with dresses of the latest designs and exquisite finish, the products of his dressmaking establishment. High-Class Production The needlework was of a high and exquisite order. So were the laces, embroideryers, millinery, dresses and other apparel and drawing-room decorations too numerous to mention in this article, but which will appear in detail in another column. The Opening Ceremony The Opening Ceremony Very striking was the opening function, when the members of the Executive Council, in regalia of office, were in attendance. The Hon. Marcus Garvey, who opened the exhibition at the balcony at about 2,000 people, it was a balloon come and one new to be baptized. After the official opening the Executive Council retired the cafeteria of the exhibition, where luncheon was served at the expense of the Hon. Marous Garvey. The Garvey cake in the colors of the Red, Black and Green, stood out gracefully in the centre of the room, in which was displayed the pure-feed exhibit—gams and jellies of all kinds, cakes, pie, pickles, beans, peas and a variety of other vegetables, put up with precision and care, lying with the glass-farred goods of a Park & Tilford's show window. Hundreds of people not identified with the Universal Negro Improvement Association have been brought to know a great deal about the tenets and aims by visiting the exhibition. The Executive Secretary and Lady President The committee worked simultaneously for weeks before the convention, and we cannot have retain from making special mention of the executive secretary, Mrs. Mary A. Johnson, who visited twenty-two divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, covering about twelve States of the Union. Responses came, however, from outside the States she covered in the form of small donations of articles and, in some cases, of money, all of which are acknowledged in the report in another column. Some of the lady presidents fell in line and rendered valuable help at the opening. Women's Day on Off-Sheet The Women's Exhibition was also in a way responsible for the idea and suggestion of Women's Day in the convention. This was one of the most interesting days of the Second International Convention. On it the women gave of their best, and we hope it will be perpetuated. Then came Woman's Night, when a very brilliant spectacle was seen in the display of the lovely costumes and figures of our women, the chief actors in this display being Mrs. Sharpearson Young and her group of modistes, and Mrs. M. Weeks and her group. The Parisian Mesdames would have marvelled at the carriage and display and the creation of the wonderful gowns exhibited on Woman's Night. Durant's establishment also made a unique demonstration. The musical program was a feature of the evening. Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis excelled herself on that night and charmed the audience with her exquisite rendering of Mary Queen of Scota. The beautiful composition of Mrs. Williams, of Kansas City, Mo. "The Garvey Ship of Liberty." set to music by John Spiken, of California, was demonstrated by the two well-known artists. The lady president of New Orleans took away the breath of the audience with a lecture to men about the things they ought to do. At the end of her appeal she cried, "This is Woman's Night! Men, be strong. We need men with good backbones." His Highness the Potentate was in good form. Surrounded by a bevy of ladies on the platform, and wearing his native toga, he lectured on and explained in detail the many uses of many of the African exhibit from Liberia. We were all awake when the evening came to a close. On the evening of August 24 the Hon. Marcus Garvey showed another qualification, that of being a wonderful auctioneer. Clad in his robes of office, leaning over the rostrum, he found ready purchasers for the articles from a smooch to a boots. On that night we received about a hundred dollars through the efforts of the President-General. There were three classes of articles handled at the exhibition. First, goods that were donated to the association and sold subsequently. Secondly, goods that were only loaned for display and for the advertisement of the makers. Thirdly, goods that were sent up for display and for sale on a percentage basis. We still have in our possession quite a number of articles of each class and we are asking individuals who sent articles up from the New York division and nearby places like New Jersey and Brooklyn, to call for them. Our mailing department is exceedingly busy mailing goods that came from the far-off states and from abroad. If there is any one desirable of the exhibit department handling goods for sale, they can communicate with the Minister of Industry and Labor, who might be able to establish an exchange bureau, which would give our women the opportunity of advertising their Specialist for 28 Years A number of people assembled at the Bethel A. M. E. Church here last evening to hear a lecture on "The Negro's Contribution to Civilization" by William H. Ferris author, historian and present editor of The Negro World. The lecture was given at the last summer session of the Literary Club. In his survey of civilization in Northern and Northeastern Africa Mr. Ferris said that the peoples there were as truly Negro as those of Negro origin in America. During his lecture he quoted Terrence, an amosor poet post of Negro descent, who said, "I am a man and nothing common to men is foreign to me." Rev. H. Cummings, pastor, opened the meeting to questions and several were answered by the spoken Soles were rendered by Mrs. Edgeworth and Miss Schenk. The collation that followed the program was served by Mrs. $500 REWARD IF I HAIR ROOT AFTER ALL MAIL AND MUNICIPAL ROYAL CHEMICAL CO. JAMAICA, M. Y. WILLMAR VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS NOMINATE FULL STATE TICKET-JOHN MITCHELL JR., STANDARD BEARER Resolutions Calling National Conference Passed by Acclamation-All Districts Represented at Mammoth State Mass Convention-Pollard Reelected State Chairman -Graham Makes Keynote Speech RICHMOND, Va. Sept. 8 (by press service of The Colored Republican). — The full slate for the gubernatorial election in November was nominated by acclamation in the Republican mass convention convening in Richmond here today at True Reformers Hall at 13 o'clock. The full State slate follows: Governor, John Mitchell, Jr.; lieutenant-governor, Theodore Nash, of Portsmouth; attorney general, J. Thomas Newsome, of Newport News; treasurer, T. E. Jackson, of Staunton; superintendent of public instruction, Mira Maggie-L. Walker, of Richmond; secretary of the commonwealth, F. V. Bacchus, of Lynchburg; corporation commissioner, Jacob L. Reid, of Roanoke; commissioner of agriculture, A. T. Trickhouse, of Ermore. Large delegations from each of the ten Congressional districts in the State packed the house to capacity at each session, which was a chapter in the nation's political history, especially as it affects colored Americans. The convention was one of harmony, and every move and action was made with enthusiasm. Mr. Pollard and his associates were given unstinted praise for having brought such a representative and memorable gathering together—a gathering composed of citizens from practically every town, city and county in the Old Dominion—forward-looking men and women with known ability. In recognition of valued services rendered by the women in this great race forward-movement, the State Committee elected a woman member from each of the ten Congressional districts. —The chair was yielded by Chairman Pollack, to Hon. W. B. F. Crowell, of Rodinike, who acted as temporary chairman of the convention. Joseph R. Pollack, who has led the Populistic forces, Virginia, and who made his sight at Chicago, at the National Republican Convention for due recognition of all Populistic without regard to color, was elected State chairman for supposed himself. This places the party in this State under the direction of the forces which, have successfully led it to a realization of its dreams, when a full ticket was nominated. H. L. Price was re-allocated State secretary. Mrs. Mildred M. Cross was appointed and designated by the chairman as vice-chairman, and Miss Maud Minifin, both of Richmond, was appointed assistant State secretary. The convention authorised by special resolution his chairman to call a national conference at Washington, D.C., at such a time as he deems best and advisable, to consider and formulate and prosecute a national political policy for the colored people of America. It is expected that this national call will be made soon, but Chairman Pollard would vouchsafe no definite information, as to the time when interviewed right after the convention adjourned. This national conference will call upon each State to join Virginia in her efforts by sending representatives to the proposed national conference. 3 The conference will be national in every phase. GREEN STAR LINE ASKS U. S. HELP Will Be Forced Into Bankruptcy if $13,743,231 Mortgage Is Foreclosed Bondholders of the Green Star Steamship Corporation have appealed to Albert D. Lester, chairman of the Shipping Board, for immediate relief by readjusting the contract of the company. The bondholders assert that the company will be forced into bankruptcy if the Shipping Board forecloses a mortgage for $18,743,221 47 on nine of its vessels. Concerned in the petition is the Equitable Trust Company which distributed $8,000,000 worth of bonds among two hundred banks, including itself, these bonds representing a first mortgage on nine other ships owned by the corporation. Through a sinking fund the bond issue has been reduced to $6,400,000. If bankruptcy proceedings are instituted by the government the Equitable declares it will be forced to apply for a separate receiver for the ships covered by the bonds to protect the bondholders. For some time it has been rumored RACE PROBLEM To the Editor-I have been reading regularly the Negro World, especially some controversy between different members of our race, where some tend to depreciate the work of prominent leaders. I am thanking you in advance for space to express myself as I see the situation. The term "Race Problem," as applied to a condition of affairs controlling the proper guidance of the advancement of a race, has interested me far beyond an acknowledgment of understanding. My not being a scholar of history, theory or philosophy, concerning the evolution of a race, I therefore do not try to express myself historically, theoretically or philosophically, concerning the progress of any race. From my own understanding I feel quite at ease to say that the term race problem, in the present century, has been applied only to the conditions of progress of the Negro Race; although every race has its problem. I therefore wish to express myself, Mr. Edison as I understand the meaning of that word, "Problem." A problem to my mind is a statement, giving incomplete facts or truths concerning the positive of some objective. The truths or facts of a said objective are statements, complete, giving knowledge of the whole truth and facts. Therefore the truths being complete, is not a problem. It can be, or is a problem by the possessor of these truths, of said objective, for, one or ones in ignorance, seeking or acquiring, knowledge of the same. The making of a problem is done for various reasons. Of these reasons we are at liberty to determine for ourselves as to the "why." Some of us may say for sport; others to develop the ignorant mind, and others, perhaps myself, maliciously, to work and carry on an unfair game (as I still have in mind race problem). The first thought that quizzes me is "What is the Negro race problem?" If there be such. We are told by white thinkers and some Negro race leaders that the Negro has a problem. And by accepting their words, their theories, their philosophy. We have agreed that there is a problem. This problem then is to be solved. But to go back to my definition or version, a problem is a statement incomplete, or truth or facts. Then, those that believe the Negro race has a problem, believe but part of the truth concerning their race. By believing only part of the truth we put ourselves on the same scale an ignorances on the subject. To acknowledge that we are a set of ignorances, we may ask, who made this problem? Who made this problem? According to the law of evolution, every thing and being must take its course in progress. Each thins, each living being, each race, must take its required time of changing that the Divine control has designed. This change must go on regardless of obstacles and tempering. This progress can be retarded, but the hand of fate, guided by the force of truth, always conquers over all obstacles. Now the progress of the Negro race in this day is recognized by all other races, as the most marked. More so by the Caucasian race, and the desire to stop its progress is so great that endless means have been used. One or the greatest has been the teaching to ignorant and illiterate Negroes that their race has a problem and keeping them (as the stronger always overpower the weaker) in ignorance and in submission, denying them certain rights that all mortals on earth should enjoy. Telling them that they are inferior and by their inferiority they are not expected to enjoy all rights that the Caucasians enjoy. But truth cannot be killed. It can be spared; another, trumped up, but will always rise again. Regardless of the lynch law, the tim-crow law, segregation, and general injustice to the race, part of our race has obtained, the whole truth and see, the obedience told to retard their progress. Then we learn these obstacles are against us and the ways and means of removing them are called the problem. Genna triumphs of ethnic race are regarded and we call them race leaders. Leaders become a people are depending upon them to lead them into the light, depending on them to remove old obstacles from along the road of progress, depending upon them to go further, stimulated through the Divine power of right, depending upon them to use the best they have to do. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1921 that the Shipping Board was to take up the case of the Green Star Line as the most pressing after that of the United States Mall Steamship Company Board officials said that this course probably would be the outcome of investigations they were pursuing. When the matter of a receivership was brought to the attention of Alvin W Kreech, president of the Equitable Trust Company A. W Loossy, vice president and William Roberta counsel for the company, joined in the consultation that followed, and it was decided to make public the entire history of the line and the efforts that are being made to reorganize it. Mr Roberta, in explaining the history of the company and the connection of the Equitable with it, made plain that the financial corporation was in no way identified with the boats upon which the Shipping Board holds a mortgage, and that the situation was in no way similar to that which attended the Mall and the Mayra. away with these obstacles. Who did I say laid the obstacle that the Caucasians? Yes. But lets add that some of the Negroes have helped too. How have some of us helped? By helping aggregation and Jim crowism. These things the Caucasians inflict upon us and truth tells us that they are wrong. If we inflict the same upon them and our own race, then we are committing a greater wrong. And if we believe in truth and truth is good, and good is God, then not to believe in all truth is not to believe in God. We must content ourselves to believe that our leaders are doing the best that they can. The obstacles are great. The workers are few. The combined forces of the Caucasian against the much divided force of Negro is thenenable. This division is the result of the sowing of the seeds of dissection. Our leaders are few. Our people much divided. Each leader claim to solve the problem his own way, according to his understanding of right. Each helping and hoping to remove the obstacles that have become rooted through time. Some through the help of a few charitable members of the Caucasian race, and others through the combined forces of their own race. Let us then recognise the good in all leaders and movements that tend to up lift the race. Following the good in all and denouncing the bad in all we must remember that every human being is prone to mistaken and weakeness. We are not all endowed with all qualities. Some have more than others, be they good or bad. Let us not be of a destructive mind. If a leader is two-thirds wrong and one-third right, let us recognize, as a race and individual, the one-third right in him and his movement. A people or leader spending his time in finding fault in others, is loosening time and tarry to do that which God warns us not to do. That lost time might be used in developing the good in themselves an 'race', thus helping to fortify against the winds that carry the seeds of dissension. By tearing down another's work, one throws more obstacles along the road of progress, thus shaking many true believers in good and right. We do not think well of the white or Caucasian race, because they practice and teach race hatred. Are we going to do worse by teaching and practicing hatred in our own race? Let us not be guilty of such a crime. My prayer is, let all humanity enjoy freedom completely. Deny no one that which you yourself crave to enjoy. Inflate upon no one that which you yourself wish not to have inflicted upon you. Recognize good wherever it is, and by doing so, evil will vanish from the earth. If we recognize good we become good. We become part of it. And, as good is translated to mean God, then we become part of God. Then shall peace and harmony reign on earth and not before. MAYOR HYLAN THANKS NEGROES FOR HELP Aided Administration in Maintaining Law and The famous band of the Fifteenth Regiment gave a concert on the Mall, Central Park, yesterday, with Mayor Hylan as the guest of honor. Mr. Hylan was escorted to the Mall by fifty Negro police reserves. When introduced by Counselor John William Smith, Mr. Hylan take this opportunity to thank the colored people of this city, through their representative citizens, for their kind co-operation in the maintenance of law and order in our city. I have find every possible co-operation from your people in seeing that this city is kept clean, not only of vice, but of other forms of lawlessness. "We are all God's children, whether brown or black, and are interested—patriotically interested—in seeing that our children are raised in decent surroundings, and that our country, State and city are properly governed and made decent places in which to live." To realize these things the colored people have afforded their full cooperation, and if it is for this mainly that I wish to 'entend them my thanks as Chief Executive of the municipality', I. Smith, Whiting attorney, makes a brief address. Charter No. 141 now held by REV. BRADWY of MUSKO-GEE, OKLAHOMA, has been revoked and is, therefore, unconstitutionally held. All persons of this community are requested to pay no attention to this gentleman, but to become members of CHARTER No. 413, legally advised of which Mr. M. C. Hassell is president. MARCUS GARVEY. INTERESTING CRICKET MATCH PLAYED ON MORON OVAL, CAMAGUEY, CUBA MORON, Camaguey, Cuba, Sept. 1—On Emancipation Day, August 81, the Moron C. C. (under their colors) again met the Ciego C. C. of that good old city, Ciego de Avila, in a mall on the Moron Oval, and victorious the boys on both sides still looking happy. The morning opened gloomy from the horizon, which made all hearts sad, thinking the days sports would have to be abandoned, but at 8 o'clock a.m. the train from Ciego de Avila made her appearance at the Moron terminus, bringing the gladiolous looking boys from that end to encounter the boys of Red Black and Green for their days task At about 9 a.m a slight shower came on, which lasted only a few minutes, and despite that the match was looked forward to with much enthusiasm when the boys merrily marched on the ground in company with their worthy president Mr Rantago Fonion and at 11 a.m the wickets were pitched the loss being won by the Moron C C when they decided to send their opponents to the bat. The match was commenced at 11 15 a.m with the Cego crook to the bat and T Wier and C Weeses with the ball. The batting was ably displayed piling the scores as they went along but behold, at 11 45 a.m the happy noises severed connections with one wicket for fourteen runs. At 12 10 p. m. another wicket fell for twenty five runs, and on seeing the score board things were thought to be gloomy, but also, the wickets fell rapidly with the careful management of the two bowlers, Messrs Wier and Weokan, and at 12 10 p. m. there were four wickets for twenty five runs. At this stage of the game a squall, accompanied with heavy winds, was encountered, yet the boys continued their game cheerfully when one run was added to the score, making a total of twenty-six runs, but when the run was added a wicket was subtracted, gliding five wickets for twenty-seven runs. At 12 25 p. m the wickets began to fall, with six wickets for the same amount of runs, and at 1 2 p. m the day became sunny and then the tank was commenced, and at 12 45 p. m there were eight wickets for thirty-three runs, the last two bats to pile the score, but also one had to go through the thunderous balls, bringing the score to thirty-four runs, which closed the innings for the Ciego C.C. At 1 p. m the noble boys of the Red, Black and Green the Mono C.C made their appearance at the bat, when at 1 26 p. m there were twenty runs on the score board, and at 1 46 p. m there were four wickets for thirty-eight runs, set the score went fast, but at 1 58 p. m there were five wickets for forty-two runs. With steady playing the boys scored rapidly, with cheers from the spectators. The score reached half a century with hard struggle from the bowling, despite the bowling the score still piled up, and at 2.15 p. m, another wicket fell for sixty-seven runs, and at 2.30 p. m the total of 100 runs was registered. At this stage of the game luncheon was served at 3.45 p. m. Play was resumed at 3.15 p. m when the total of 107 runs was put up for all out, which declared the Moron C C innings closed at 3.45 p. m. The Clego C C was sent to the hat once more, but like doing a day's journey, the wicket went one after another when, at 4 p. m, all were out for the total of ten runs, which closed the Clego C C Much praise is to be given our worthy young batsman, Mr J Andrews, who came out top scores not out with thirty-one runs, followed by T Wier with twenty-five runs, and C Woecke with twenty-two runs, also C King and J Thompson, of the Ciego C C, with ten and eight runs, respectively. The bowling of the leather king of the Moron C. C, Mr T. Wier, was of no mean type, and also of Weekes and Scarlett, who also have to praise Messrs King and Chambers, of the Ciego C C, for their bowling. The luncheon was under the careful management of our noble and energetic worker, Mr Joshua J Garth, who equipped himself immensely, and much thanks to that gentleman. At 5.30 p. m. all was over, and the happy party left the ground all satisfied, yet last but not least, Mr E Brooks ended the day's function at his residence, with the boys and girls in a pastime of two hours of music and dancing, ending a happily spent day As for the ladies on the ground, we cannot leave them to themselves; we have to thank them ever so much for their time spent with us on the ground, for as we all know, there cannot be fun without the ladies, hence our gratitude goes forth to them, and trust that at all our engagements we can have them to cheer our spirits.

W ST JOHN McREATH AN APPEAL FROM THE SOUL OF A SERIOUS AFRICAN Dear Sir, Please grant me space in the most valuable paper of all to say a few words to my kid. Oh Africans, at home and abroad I appeal to you from the very depths of my heart and soul to awake. Awake to the full realization of your manhood and womanhood. If the time should ever be that we must organize in one united effort, it is now today. Don't put this matter off for tomorrow, strike the nail on the head while the time is ripe. Especially do I appeal to the Africans at home to stretch their hand out to one another. Let your tribal differences rest for a while. Organize with your brothers that are in distress. You have the power through the will of God to defend yourselves from the approaching enemy. Can't you read the times of the times? Don't you see what is about to happen if you stay disorganized? We of the Western Hemisphere, extend our sincere wishes for your progress in establishing a free and redeemed motherland. We are also willing to render our support morally and financially in establishing the things that are uppermost in our hearts, so my brothers and sisters all over the world, don't hesitate one moment. Become a member of this great organization known as the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The sooner you do this the sooner will the world a international affairs be settled. Our statesmanship, our intelligences, our recommendations are needed at the international table of peace to help establish the world-wide democracy we so anxiously await. I have no time to discuss those men that are misleading and misrepresenting us at the Pan-African Congress in France. I say, let them starve for our support. The quicker you do this the quicker will they become a discarded lot. I extend a hand of fellowship and true leadership to the Hon. Marcus Garvey. In so far as leadership goes, Garvey is the ship, all else the sea. So unite, my brothers, and become members of the crew on the ship of which Garvey is the captain and you will be rewarded tenfold. Also your landing at the plan of recognition, justice and equality will be made absolutely possible. HAROLD G SALTUS LADY JOHN E. BRUCE PRESENT AT POTENTATE'S RECEPTION IN LIBERTY HALL Lady John E.

Special Correspondent of New York Americans PAILU, Sept 9 - Dispatches from Madrid through private channels which evaded censorship, reveal the full extent of the recent staggering Spanish military disaster in Morocco Of 24,055 troops, all of whom except 3,784 were Spaniards, only 200 were saved from death in the Moorish onslaught. (Only thirty-five of these escape with their arms All the armament including 120 I hear that there is being organized in this ballpark the John F. Hylan Republican Club. I hope I have heard correctly. There is work to be done in this ballpark in the coming fall election, and it should be done MAN FARHION and with thoroughness. The late John Boyle O'Reilly, the great Irish poet and patriot of Houston, said to a meeting of colored men in Boston in 1885 I don't care what your political preferences or parties are. I don't care whether you vote the Republican or Democratic ticket, but I know that if I were a colored man I should use parties as I would a club to break down prejudice against my people. I shouldn't talk about being true to any party except so far as that party was true to me. Parties care nothing for you, only to use you. You should use parties. The highest party you have in this country is your own manhood. That is the thing in danger from all parties, that is the thing that every colored American is bound in his duty to himself and his children to defend and protect. The thing that most deeply affects the colored American is not going to be cured by politics. You have received from politics already about all it can give you. You may change the law by politics, but it is not the law that is going to insult and outrage and communicate every colored American for generations to come. You can't cure the conceit of the white people that they are better than you by politics, nor their ignorance, nor their prejudice, nor their bigotry, nor any of the insolences which they cherish against their colored fellow citizens. Politics is the snare and delusion of white men as well as black. Politics tickles the skin of the social order, but this disease of class privilege and inheritance lies deep in the internal organs. Social equity is based on principles of justice, political change on the opinion of a time. The black man's skin will be a mark of social inferiority so long as white men are conceived, ignorant and prejudiced. You cannot legislate these qualities out of the whites. You must steal and reason them out by teaching illustration and example."

They forced the remnant of the Spanish army into the city of Melilla, where they are now besieged. While the Spanish papers assert that Spain has sent 62,000 men and 1,444 cannon to Melilla in preparation for a giant offensive to begin next Monday, well informed observers affirm that the Moors have doubled their army T'S COLUMN coming campaign in this city and State.

Kay and Hargreaves gave us the "biting shuttle" and the "spinning jenny"; Richard Arkwright invented his famous "water frame," a series of revolving rollers rotating at varying speeds which spun the threads so firmly that it was how possible to make an all cotton cloth, a thing beforeo impossible. Cloth was now made in the factory instead of at home. Then came the cotton gin by Eli Whitney, giving still greater impetus to the textile industry. Large scale production soon made it necessary to find other markets, and this meant better means of transportation. Stephenson and Fulton were equal to the occasion and gave to the world the locomotive and the steamship. The demand for steel gave us the plastiface and the Massemer process of pullying iron. Rapid transit demanded rapid means of communication and Morse. and Bell gave us the telephone and telegraph and later Marconi gave us the wireless.

R. M. Powell Song by the choir, "From greenery's Icy Mountain." Mr. H. J. Boyer, chaplain, acted as chairman. President S. H. Jackson made a short talk on the progress of the division. The chairman introduced Rev. W. MoWills as master of ceremonies. The master of ceremonies introduced Brother Matt W. Brown, who made the welcoming address to the New Orleans Division and the visiting friends with their great crowd of Black Cross Nurses who headed the parade. The response to the welcome was made by Sister E. Brown of the New Orleans Division. When the charter was unveiled by Mr. M. Francis and Mr. J. White, with the great national hope, about three feel by any feel, over it and darkness and leaks and imagines were turned in our hall, the Black Cross Nurses Association has awarded all his kind the Todd President of the Algeria Division.

Ensign as such as that is true, the idea, which seems prevalent that the U. N. K. L. A. is organizing to destroy government and to teach hatred of any race is erroneous. "The H. M. I. A. is not building upon the sand; it is building upon the solid foundation of honesty, good character and intelligence, and it therefore cannot and will not fail. I will not tell you anything about the court reception because you can read all about it in the Negro World, and I do not believe I could do justice to it in my description of its gregariousness and glorifier. I will say, however, that it will long be remembered as an epoch in the history of the Candler, of the delegates who was presented to His Highness the Potentate, may be a bit more descriptive in his remarks. "We are now at the beginning of a new year, and it is expected that every division will make a drive for membership and selling of shares in the Black Star Line. A great program is being prepared, which if followed carefully will potentially double the minimum number of shares that the Black Star Line Steamship Corporation the success it ought to be. We must begin right here and put the program over so that at the next convention this division will not have to be designated as the Cambridge Division to be known, but will so over-shadow all divisions in the State that it will be recounted when spoken of as the Massachusetts Division. From the President-General, Mr. Candler spoke on "Unity," and in closing his remarks said: "After my experience at Library Hall I am proud of my race as an intelligent and progressive people. I want to say to you at this time if you do not intend to cast aside your petty differences and come together just as other divinas have done and do business for yourselves and for the redemption of our motherland, you may just as well take the charter down and send it back to headquarters, but if you intend to follow the teachings of this association you will be led out of the wilderness of brutality, raping and lynching back to the home of your forefathers." -Africa. THE U. N. L. A. IN BANES, ORTE CUBA On Tuesday two officers were commissioned to see our esteemed administration of the United Brush Company to give the day off to his Negro laborer. He kindly consented to do so and further gave us permission for the use of the ground at Sagura. A grand program then started. We prepared A-procession to start at Liberty Hall through the town to the home of the Alcid, where we were well received by the gentleman. On our return the grand procession halted at the office of the United Brush Company to pay compliment to Mr. Harty and his colleague, who treated us very kindly. At this point we were much disturbed by showers of rain making it almost impossible to get back to Liberty Hall. The determination of the crowd, was to get back to Liberty Hall at any point, and there we did reach During the time our esteemed lady, the ground preparations, was reached Liberty Hall half way. The rain did not impede our progress. At this stage a short program was arranged by the officers present and the third vice-president occupied the chair. After two speakers thrilled the audience with their eloquence, and the rain continued, in came our worthy first vice-president, who in his usual style gave a good account of himself in his masterly address. Also our national members, who have been ack for something or otherwise to himself, and his heart. At this point an announcement was made that the W. W. L. Club was at the disposal of the W. W. L. Club was at the highest proceedings. This was readily from Liberty Hall with the head of music to the D. W. L. Club, where we had at a time well repaired. All new decorations were made for the hall with half a day's work. The calling pattened with 15 volees, when we brought the wall-spent day 15' 45' 25' by singing the Negro national anthem. It is the delivery of all that God will spare our great and noble leader that we all may sing the Ethiopian national anthem to behold. Adolf W. W. L. Club was established. R. G. MILHAY.

C A LOUISIANA Ex General Secretary Guantanamo Div September 19 Nett is a beautiful actor was rendered by Kate A. Thomas. The next speaker introduced was Mr. Reuben B. Birth, a member of the Honorary Advisory Board of the Univista Division, who gave a most brilliant address, his poetic influences making a great impression upon the audience. The following speaker was Mr. Green, from the Panama Division, who is now with us. He delivered an eloquent address on "Unity." He said unity is the binding together of a group of people, or a race, or a nation, showing the necessity of true love, one to another and in unity with others. He said the executive offices whereby, in time, we would reach our most beautiful country, flying the colors of the Red, the black and the Green. (Great explane). The next speaker was our organizer, Mr. Raswali, who gave a most vivid and stirring address, his subject being "The Eminence of Men and the Pre-Eminence of God." A solo entitled, "Garvey is Calling You Now," was rendered by Mrs. Michela, one of our Black Cross Nurse. The next to address us was our second vice-president Mr. Martinez, who is a Cuban. He spoke on "Future Improvement." He laid great stress on the necessity of educating our women, and asking the question "Who can prevent diamonds from shining?" "Friends, tonight it seems to me that Garvey is the greatest diamond the world has ever known. Remember that Jesus Christ never worked for the present but for the future; so in this movement, working for the emancipation and the future betterment of Africa." He encouraged his countrymen to support the cause loyalty. The next speaker was Mr. McIntyre, whose subject was "High and Low Birth." He compared the birth of Jesus Christ with that of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Following was an address in Spanish by Dr. Prieste, followed by Mr. William N. Walter one of our most interested members, who spoke of the necessity of forming a soup kitchen, through contribution, so as to assist our starving fellowmen who are in this city without work, awaiting the streamer to take them to their respective homes. The Ethiopian National anthem was sung, which brought the meeting to a close. H. STONEWALL JACKSON. Secretary Division No. 194 THE U. N. L. A.

The hall was lively, festive, de- cided, low which credits must be given to the Children's Committee Mrs. La- lissa Presley, Mrs. K. J. Davis, Mrs. Bernard Taylor, Mrs. H. J. Drill. The sacred Balm Massacred the evening of the ceremony. It is good that the den- sionaries be kept unbounded. No one should be left out. Grand Celebration of the Negro Holiday, 31st Day of August, 1921, Took Place Here by the Entire Body of Officers and Members. Yesterday being the recognized Negro holiday, all necessary preparations were made beforehand to make the day a very enjoyable one, and despite the slight inclementity of the weather, there appeared an enormously large turnout of officers, members, friends and well wishers of this grand movement to enjoy themselves, and a picnic was celebrated in the yard of our Liberty Hall, which has made a marked demonstration of the vast amount of interest that is being cherished by each and every one toward the desired progress of the movement. Rich and melodious music was supplied by seven different pieces of instrument. The picnic started about midday and extended to about 10 o'clock last night, and at which time the entire crowd was reluctant that a termination should have come about, a the conspicuous appearance of everybody present demonstrated the fact that a very delightful time was being celebrated. In addition to the picnic, a concert was anticipated in behalf of our second convention, but on account of some unforeseen circumstances the said conference will be postponed until Monday, September 8 and same will be brought off. It is rather pleasant to be able to state that although there has been such an enormous crowd in attendance at the picnic, the enjoyment came off remarkably nice and quietly without the slightest worry or trouble of any kind, when at 10 o'clock everybody departed to their respective homes, feeling quite happy and joyous after it.

Then he gave a soul-attiring address, putting to the people the aims and objects of this grand and noble organization. He then introduced the next speaker, Brother Andy Harris, who gave a short but interesting talk. Brother Capland gave an interesting talk on uniting our forces and be a people. Closing remarks by the vice-president, Van M. Warren. Though we are greatly handicapped in many ways materially, we are nevertheless fighting on in spirit of never yielding determination for the principles of Garveyism as given to the world of our grand old race through the U.

Dear Sir: The Santa Marta Division greatly deploys its inability to deputise a delegate for the approaching convention—an event in which its members are particularly concerned.

CELEBRATES FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF DECLARATION OF NEGROES INDEPENDENCE AUG. 31 For the past month the members of the Moron Division were busy preparing for the celebration of Independence, and that has been the custom of Negroes to celebrate the holiday, and Moron has answered the call of the convention of August 81, 1831. News was sent for and near, notices were placed around the town, while a man, being made Mrs. C. B. Burrowea, was divided in division, with the assistance of Mrs. Ogborne, first lady vice-president; Miss Beatrice Robinson, second lady vice-president; Mrs. Florence Williams, assistant secretary; Miss Florence Williams, a portion of the indies division, worked up a fine program for the holiday. On the evening of the 50th a rosette party was given by the Black Cross Division. This was a perfect success. Long before the entertainment began the hall, being of ordinary size, was turned away for want of space. The function was in the shape of a concert with song, solos, dialogues, recitations and gymnastics. Rosettes were sold made up of the colors of Rob, Black and Green, which made a fine decoration in the bosoms of hundreds of young and old. The program was enjoyed by all. On the morning of the 31st, despite the existing financial circumstances, the town was unusually lively. The day broke with threatening rain clouds, but they were apparently the signs of blessing for a pleasant day. A little drizzle came apparently Omnipotently but the rain was not so severe in this tropical section. Train after train arrived; people came from all of the Province of Camagüey and wended to Library Hall and to the recreation grounds. At 11 o'clock Mr. A. Givlize president of this divisi- Mr. R. C. Russell read the *Declaration of Independence*. After about two hours of deliberations and speech-making the crowd wended its way to the recreation ground, where it was refreshed as desired. Carvayrova, not Carvayrova, friends and foes were well-married, and the presser by Miss F Dobbs and Miss B Robinson, which brought the indulgence of the slang—moreliz. Beer, ice cream, soda, lemonade and the good old martel were at their disposal. Discipline was excellent. Cricketing, boxing and rounders were the hobby A local band, furnished by some members of the U N. I. A., were the last exercise (West Indies against Liberia). Liberia was The crowd then dispersed for a few hours, and at 7.30 p.m. m. reassembled in the ball for speechnaking. Among the speakers were R. M. C. Russell, Mr. J. H. W. McKinney, and Mr. Edward A. Scarlet, who is always tickelling the brain of the thoughtful with some of his historical themes. One could readily see from the attitude of the audience that the day was appreciated and was much on the mind. Over the band struck up a favorite piece and the balance of the night was spent in joying, etc. Thus ended a pleasant day. With best wishes for the ultimate success of his convention we remain, yours respectfully and fraternally. THE MORON DIVISION. Joseph A. Todd, Secretary. U. N. L. A.

Carapacea Division on August 15, 1921, in commemoration of the great convention of Negroes in America during the month of August, the participants who participated in the deliberations to the number of twenty-four, together with members of Carapacea Division, formed a procession and marched from back and to the hall with a bantam, carrying the trophies, before having the moto inscribed also "Ploe des Africa at Justicees." After the procession returned to the hall the Rev. A. E. Taylor, A. M. E. Church, chapel of Penal Division, and the Rev. J. M. Crawford, by singing of dumm No. St. O. G.

The Frederick Douglas song was the first song conducted with march in the hall, followed by intermission. A private conference was then held to discuss measures to improve conditions among the divisions in Trinidad. Not having ample time to deliberate on same, it was decided that a general conference be held at Carpechaima to which each division to which each division in Trinidad must be represented by at least two delegates. After discussion of other subjects of minor importance the meeting came to a close by singing the U. N. I. A. national anthem. I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient friend. AUGUSTUS E. ROBERTS.

HOW WE SPENT THE MONTH OF AUGUST IN MORON HOW WE SPENT THE MONTH OF AUGUST IN MORON On August 13 an anniversary in our Liberty Hall for the improvement of our children came off with great success. The teachers, teachers and friends with deep interest. Another rosette party was held on the night of August 20 in aid of the U. N. I. A. which was carried on the lawn of the library and divided. The night was well spent. The hearts of the people were full to hear the children of Moron. Members and friends were all satisfied to see the spirit of the people of the U. N. I. A. at the Liberty Hall and their successful party. On the morning of the 81st a meeting was held in the hall of our courthouse at 8:30 a. m. m. F. A. Ogilvie, chairman. Mr. Russell, first vice-president of the division, read the Nogrova negraits, the fifty-four articles of which were well explained to those present. Later on, about 11:45 a. m. all the people of Moron town gathered together on the grounds that were selected for having their national holiday for all the Negro people of Moron Division, and upon that ground for the day. Each and every one was well attended by the members of the association. There were games of all sorts—a boxing match, cricket match, marching, daming, etc. Also a fine (tig-of-war between gides constituting West Indies and Liberia. The West Indies boy won in two rounds. The day was well spent. There is no one that can say he did not enjoy himself in this town unless he was sick. We have around here about 100 working women daily going out to work. We think five of them want to work; they would not go to work on that day. They were all on the grounds enjoying themselves in spite of a little rain at about 5 p. m. All were satisfied with the enjoyment of the day. We had another meeting in the hall at 7.20 p. m. of the same day which came off for the evening. Your obedient servant, CHARLES STEWART.

The meeting was excepted by the workers of the division as well as by the visitors. The meeting was called to order precisely at 8 o'clock by the president, Robert Roberta. Singing hymns, followed by reading of the chapter, Tet. Conversion. Mr. Judie Abbe, the great young African, addressed that whatever you do, stick together, love one another, and he also made some very good remarks, asking you to become a member if they want to go to the country of happiness. The whole town of Burlington was very much uplifted and also many people made happy.

DU BOIS AND PAN- AMERICAN CONGRESS Continued from Pages 9 and 10—to get some cheap pauper. They are allowing themselves to be used even as Uncle Tom and his bunch were used for hundreds of years. We call them parlance, "white men's niggers" and "black men's niggers" and two classes—the ordinary class of "white men's niggers" and the higher class of "white men's niggers." But two other classes are allike, in that they both cater to young men, in that they catering to, crining before, and fashioning their ideas and opinions along the same lines as those of white people for what they can get out of it. D, N, I, A. I. Not Against White People let me make this statement very clear. We want any one to want the wrong cognition of this, that the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Marcel Garvey are not against white people. Our opponents try to fasten this change upon us, that we are opposing it. We have no time to be against the white race; all our time is devoted to the upbuilding of the Negro race. (Appeause.) It takes time to hate, and we haven't that much time to waste. We hate nobody. All that we are trying to do is to be prejudiced against and to misinfluence and kill the prestige of the Universal Negro improvement Association. That is all he and his followers are doing. It is nothings else but narrow-minded foliage, on the one hand, accepting subyld from white men, accepting subyld from white women, accepting subyld from the purpose, is to exploit the weak race, on the other hand. Gubaldized Leadersto: Now, how can these so-called Negro leaders talk out for Negroes when they accept patronage from good white people? Gratitude is a thing that even a dog with a bone that does not hand. Is that so? (Cries of "Toe!" Well, how can these big Negroes accept white folks thousand dollars, their five hundred dollars, and other contemptful affords to be "important"? They can afford it that is sure, the Universal Negro Emperor's provision Association refuses to accept even the proffered help of our best friends of other races, because we do not want to be obligated to anybody, be grateful to all (Applauded). But we simply trying to live easy, that's all. Then the idea of Candace, the French deputy, saying that he would lose everything if he went back to Africa. It is more bunkum. Do you know what he means by "losing everything" and the other mean, losing the companionship of women in Paris (Laughter). That's the whole sum and substance of the matter. What else would there be reason to fear losing to a Negro born in Africa? Tell me, what could he lose by going back to Africa (Laughter). That is why I think there is something in Paris that appeals to them, that's the reason they have gone all the way from Africa and America to reach there and why they fear they will lose something should they return. I have been to Paris, and I know much about that beautiful city, and they fear they will laughter. I know one thing: There are very few Negroes walking on the boulevards of Paris who can resist the temptation of those white girls who are, along those broad, magnificent avenues. But whatever those follow them, they will lose everything by going back to Africa, and whether they will locally live anything or not, the white people will of these fine mornings drive all Negroes out of white countries. We know their intentions: that is why we are preparing to meet the emergency. U. N. I. A.

This was followed by collection and several salutations by the orchestra. Several persons contributed one dollar to the relief collection, and a sum of $125 was called for that purpose. Mr. Charles Bannip, acting president, predeated and a lively program was rendered. A short paper, by Mr. Simyer, J. was followed by a selection of papers, which was followed by an address by Mr. L. H., Muhungunu from South Africa. The most apted spirit of the day's actions was delivered by Mr. Dr. R. Hearce, a spilted worker of the U. N. Y. A. from Pitkin, Missouri, who through an American army served in the Infantry army in Egypt and other areas of Africa. Mr. Garcelle told how his new in Africa greeted birds of above, and when he asked to whom they do belong the answer was and said in the Irish. After a warm address to Mr. Garcelle Mr. H.

The doctor was also present and gave a short address. They then left immediately to attend the opening of the new Nortress Theatre at Anchina and Columbia strolls. Dr Nortress is not only a physician, but a struggling Negro financier of determinant business. There was nothing in the city but pool rooms and other places of work which the heightened Negro clergy of Detroit was unable to diminish, but compromised for Negroes. Dr Nortress thus introduced some business among Negroes. He suffered knocks sentimentally from the sycophobic class, not nothing class, but he kept on steadily. His first business venture was the Mercy Hospital, which we visited and found to be splendid as a second class place. With a few others he next established what is known as the Nortress Bank, and now the new theatrical success of the successful unsep by Negro depositors of the Nortress Bank; we with it the highest possible success. We know, however, that the failure of Negro consumers to purchase from and do business with Negro business is a question of interest in economic safety and the public is not to be blamed. When Negro business man and patranchs find out the error of the business, a life of a hard institution and individualism is a hindrance to progress and human happiness they will destroy the old way and adopt the principles of scientific business venture. They will find the secrets of co-operative business and commercial science and do business in the gigantic scale which only is a robbery. The large business can attract and satisfy the public by quick sale and small profit on each piece of economic goods and at the same time procure large profit by fractional accumulation and quantity production. Again the Negro*business man fails to that popular attitude and attachment, the attachment and suffered himself to be ignored by the establishment of unpopular looking petty business. As a result of the very honest report of the president-general-printed on page 6 of The Negro World in the August 18 issue—many people with jurisprudence and business knowledge and experience in U. S. law. We are glad the president-general made such prompt and impartial report. It has created a moral interest in the work, and welcomed all that were lingering in the shadow of curiosity and interest in the beginning were not ignorant of the fact that the U. N. L. A. afforded from the want of honest and intelligent man, man with the knowledge of organization, and control, men with the knowledge of economic science and the proper understanding of business master and the lawyer who have never studied books on business are incap- ice war in the Zulu war, in the various tribal wars of Africa, because the U. N. war in the Zulu war, because the Spaniards thought they could and the Spaniards not, too, knowing that the U. N. L. A. able of promoting the interest of any public, quasi-public or private corporation as a child is incapable of building a city, and such persons in the control of an organized body must be the cause, of discontinuity in the ranks. From our experience in U. N. L. A. business transactions it is safe to assume that the knowledge of the scientific knowledge of the following very common terms: Capital and labor, surplus and expense, liabilities and income. He who expects to be in possession of any part of the economic goods known as capital, but expects not the practical effects passive or expensive of the relative terms, labor, liabilities and expenses, is a thief in possession. Even in the atmosphere of reason without its branch, an capital, revenue or income is inseparable from expense. A society to be built in obstruction of these terms is a society tumbling in mental and physical chance to handicap its progress. We sight an instance in the Detroit Division: about the month of March a man was away in attendance, with an increasing discontinuity in the membership. In the month of May a motion was made in one of our business meetings that a sum of $8 be drawn from the treasury to assist a sick and helpless member. Although the motion was carried the money-was not drawn, because of the strong protest of an officer responsible for the discontinuity declared there was no money in the treasury, and we owe the parent body so much and so much. The writer thereupon investigated and found that the reason why there was no money in the treasury is because the said officer and his associates who execute control of the people's money had no scientific knowledge of the relative effect of the terms capital and capitalitis and income, and executed the terms in abstraction. No honest man or set of men can expect income without expense. The most rebukeled modern capitalitatis either work themselves or give some economic medium of exchange for that expenditure of energy known as labor. We are told that God rested from His work on the seventh day, which he hallowed. So when the world is being without expense. Whatever we get honestly involves expense. The new Negro should not fail to read books on business and economics and learn all he can about the past and present activities of man, his relation to nature, and his role is the greatest lesson for any people to learn really. A scientific concept of the grand lessons of mutual assistance and relative reality is an essential quality for the assurance of peace and happiness. This is what the V. N. L. A. brought to the notice of Africa's able sons and daughters. JAMES M. LOWE. was not only here, but everywhere (laughter); and our doctrine has been, from the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, that the blood, if supposed to fight of an alien race against his own.

This is what they did, and the result was that the Moroccan army from the New York American heretofore alluded to;) "200 IN SPANISH ARMY OF 34,000 SURVIVE" I need not go further in the news. It is all an indication of what is coming—what the next war will be. But let me tell you that the cable reports concerning the Moroccan affair state that those native Moroccan in India captured airplanes, guna, munitions of every kind—everything. (Appease and great rejoicing.) And just think, the Moroccan had been at home all the time. Now, if those who had been home all the time can give such a defoit, what about those who have been in the world, the empires of the world, and who have a knowledge of the latest tactics in war and the latest information on war?

Wait until you have a cure before you lose it. Give it before you and I see that gama. (Laughter) They seem to think that Negroes are laughing still. Yes: we are laughing still, but this is a new laugh; it is a serious laugh, as somebody says. The old Uncle Tom grin, the old Jack Johnson smile is gone, the smile of death is here. Brave men smile when they die. And that is the smile that is on the countenance and face of every Negro. Give me liberty, or give me death! We re-choose the words of the Hindup and Mohammedans; I like it. (Laughter) "Hindus and Mohammedans take vows to be free or die." Why, the things sound good. (Laughter) World at Last Coming to its Genius At last the world is coming to its senses. Oppressed humanity is stand-up everywhere for freedom, for freedom, for freedom, for freedom, for these few Negroes who got drunk and went awry in Paris got the idea from, that Negroes don't want any freedom, I can't tell. Where did these Negroes come from, anyhow? These Negroes were where they did come from? These backhome looking at our oppressed people, 15,000,000 in America, 20,000 in the West Indies, 40,000,000 in South and Central America, who have been kept down 500 years—looking into their faces and saying they don't want freedom, they don't want laughter. I don't know how Du Bols will justify himself when he comes back to America, to have the "nerves" the audacity, to the importance, to go over and tell white folks that Negroes don't want freedom! If he did it as a camouflage he will be excused, and we will say: "All right; we understand why you did it: for sometimes you have to use camouflage, you know. Tell them you don't want that! Tell them you are not looking for it (Laughter). If that is the reason why he said it, then we. will be able to excuse him when he comes back. But if that's not the reason, then he is stone dead, as far as Negro leadership is concerned (Laughter and applause). Because in that event he couldn't even a dead black bat, telling the world that we, an oppressed people trying to get away from lynch law—saying to white people that we do not want freedom, because the sun is too hot in Africa: We have been getting all the heat in the world ever since we were brought from the sunny shores of Africa more than three centuries ago against our will. We have been getting all the heat we have been looking for since first we were born. We have people who have given us heat before, heat behind and heat below us for the last three hundred and fifty years; and if we could stand the heat of the white man's prejudice, the heat of the white man's burning and lynching for the last three hundred and fifty years we can stand the chance of climate change in Africa. Applauds. It is little but times, but at night time is cool, cool enough for every man to have a good slumber. Give me the climate of perpetual sunshine! Africa, the Land of Perpetual Sunshine Give me a country. where the climate is such that there is perpetual sun- sainness, lakes and ponds. give me such a land, and I shall there be forever sunshine. I will be able to find unbeatable. In saying this we are not deceiving you; for everybody knows who has studied geography, under- stands, that everything that cannot be found in other parts of the world can be found in Africa. (Applause.) So we are told to us about it for three hundred and fifty years—for over five hundred years—because we didn't know better! but we know everything about Africa now. We know where the diamond fields are located. We know where to find the gold. We know where to find the silver. We know where to find copper. So that we won't have to go prospecting.
