The Negro World

From a disorganized and purposeless race of four years ago, we have grown into a world organization with a grand and noble ideal. Our desire at this time is that we continue on the prosecution of the ideal until we achieve the success we desire. And what is the ideal? It is that of a free and redeemed African nation to be controlled by the Négro peoples of the world. In climbing up to this ideal we must expect discouragements of every kind not coming only from those who are directly opposed to us, but even from those who are within our own ranks. The work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the emancipation of four hundred millions of Negro people is a work of reformation. All reform movements—and for that matter all reformers—have had their time of discouragements, but as for the Universal Negro Improvement Association we are determined that there shall be no discouragements to set us back in the grand and noble cause we have in view. We are determined to climb the alps of opposition for the higher achievement of the things that are dear to our hearts. All we require to see is a conscious feeling of determination on the part of each and every one who make up the Negro Race. The Negro of today must make up his mind to do or die. The WILL properly exercised will bring about the desired results. The difference between humanity is that a part of us have a WILL, a WILL to do, and a WILL to achieve, a WILL not to surrender, a WILL not to give up, and others of us have no will power and always content ourselves with the bellof that "what's the use of trying, it can't be done." We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association feel that there is a broad field of conquest open to the Negro the grand and glorious continent of Africa is still open to us with all her hidden mysteries, with all her undeveloped treasures, waiting on the combined determination of the Negro peoples of the world to demonstrate through her the power and ability of the race to rise from the lowest even to the highest in the achievements of man. RUMBLING OF EMPIRES AND NATIONS BECAUSE OF MISRULE INEVITABLE HANDWRITING ON WALL FORTELLS DOOM OF CERTAIN NATIONS, SAYS MARCUS GARVEY, IN BRILLIANT ADDRESS ANALYZING PRESENT WORLD CONDITIONS LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, Sunday Evening, Sept. 25, 1921. Speaking on the broad subject of the causes that contribute to the fall of nations the Hon. Marcus Garvey, president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, said to a large audience here tonight that the chief of these is mistake of the governed on the part of those who govern them, and this, he pointed out, by clinging historical facts, inevitably leads to their ultimate ruin and decay. The whole world, he said, is in a soothing state of unrest—social, economic and political—and one by one these countries, that are being held in subjection by stronger nations are eliminating for independence and seeking an opportunity and the means whereby they can throw off the political yoke that deprives them of their freedom. Political scientists and those who can read the signs of the times are able to see that several of the present great nations of the world are doomed—that the handwriting is on the wall, foretelling their fate. Among these, he believed, is Great Britain, which, though now encircling the globe, will inevitably fall because of tier misdeeds, as did Rome, Greece and Carthage. This she is striving hard to stave off as seen in her desperate efforts to prevent Ireland from gaining its independence. But it will come sooner or later. The great misrule of other nations was an omnipotence should be an inspiration to this Negro, particularly his view of the fact that this misrule has greatly affected, advenience and interest are a race to build on the continent of Africa that will be a model to the world, showing all other nations how to rule wisely, with justice, equality, and temperate for all. and in company with Mima Alice Noehmann in a duet. The customer services proceded the singing and mumu. MON. MARCUS GARVEY SPEGHE His Encouragement, Marcus Garvey described the following speech: I desire, to say a few words tonight on the subject of "Mistakes of Empires." Empires have great empires have fallen and empires in the future will and in company with Mina Alice Fraser-Richson gave a dust. The customary religious services preceded the singing and music. NON. MARCUS GARVEV'S SPEECH: 'His Excellency, Marcus Garvey delivered the following speech: I declare, to the members of 'Mistletoe of Empires' Empire, have, great, empires have fallen and empires in the future will fall because of the misconduct of those who rule. We have come a long way in the history of governments; we have fallen and fallen in the history of empires. We had Assyria, Babylon, Rome, Greece. We had the French Empire; we had the German Empire, and, today, we are still living in the age of empires—empires that will fall To my observation I have come to the bible and the conclusion that empires have fallen because of those who rule—of those who govern the people or the mass that make up the empire—to consider the feelings, the sufferings, the adoptions of those who rule—of those who govern the people. The fall of nations and empires has always come about first by the disorganized spirit—the disorganized centiment of those who make up the nation or make up the empire; the disorganized class that govern the nation; the other class that adoptive, them of the essentials of life that are necessary for the good and well-being of those who make up the nation or make up the empire. The class that ruled in the nation and well-being of those who make up the nation and in government—are the people, who have always provoked the spirit of those who are called. Hence you have had social revolutions; you have had civil strives which ultimately result in the downfall of the empire. History teaches us that and we are seeing it today. Empire—the Goal of the U. N. I. A. Art—is because we have studied history by close scrutiny why we started the Universal Negro Improvement Association as an organization toward the object of empire. In traveling toward the destiny of empires we must understand that mistakes others have made in the past, otherwise we will fail even as they fall.

DR. J. W. EASON, TELLS OF WHOLESOME EFFECT OF SLOGAN, "AFRICA FOR AFRICANS!" NOW BECOME POPULAR AND UNIVERSAL—EVEN CRITICS HAVE ADOPTED IT, THOUGH NOT BROAD ENOUGH TO ACKNOWLEDGE MARCUS GARVEY AS ORIGINATOR OF IDEA Recent Election of U. N. I. A. Member to Philadelphia Judiciary Pointed to as Evidence of Power of Organization Among Negroes The Cause of Unrest We have industrial monopoly; we have commercial monopoly; we have economic monopoly that places power in the hands of the select few; and through the selfishness of administration by the select few they cause the majority of the masses to exist always in want, and through existing in want to be able to control them among them and the mass seeking to correct the evil tears down government, tears down empires and they fall. They have fallen in the past and they will fall again; and it is because we see already the handwriting why we are organizing the Universal Negro League as so in the fall the empires of Europe will raise a greater African Empire of tomorrow. (Applause.) Beware of Past Mistakes But as I mildly a while ago, in traveling towards the country of empire, let us unthink the� the���s of the world made in the past and others are making now. It is the leaders of the Universal Negro Improvement Association— if the makers of the nation of Africa fall at any time to give consideration and extend fellowship to all who make up the African Empire. The Empire will still be the most important to tell that it is not the people who are to tenally the world the qualities of mercy, the qualities of justice, the qualities of human freedom and democracy. ( Applause.) Who can tell but that out of the week of empires the Negroes of the world will build up a momentless and to withstand the power of rule and to always ( Applause ), ahi; and I see the jesting that we have before us coming even nearer and nearer as we travel toward it. They speak about the almighty might of Great Britain, but all political scientists can foresee the doom coming; the formality of the work that is important England. That they will not give Ireland freedom because they estimate " if we give freedom to Ireland, Canada, will want freedom, Australia will want freedom, South Africa will want freedom; New Zealand will want freedom, India will want freedom; and the world will be the most important to tell that we will not give Ireland even more than we do it. Therefore only little land will be left. " But ahi! the Empire would have existed for ever if the Empire was founded upon justice and human love. If those who laid the foundation of British imperialism had laid it on righteousness and treated them as the same who who would have been the most unlikely and the most dismayed themselves then that would be no dissatisfaction; there would be no dissatisfaction within the empire; all would work for the continuity of that empire. But because they have robbed others in the empire; because they started others in the empire; because they were�ed with a thing of a way of within the empire and because there is a thing known as evolution and that the individuals evolve from one State to the other like everything within nature—so that the individual will not always be ignorant, will not always be foolish, and when they, the oppressed people, are in the world, they are being robbed and exploited, from that higher sense of justice, they will turn against the empire and Z�tory. It's Great Britain ruled the United States with an even hand—without any "sense of justice and democracy; they failed! Egypt with an iron hand; and the people who are the most unlikely and the most so-called the British will be so far off from the brief and iron hand; they had no thought of human liberty and they never changed their " thiches " according to the development of the people. That is where the bish, " ones in Embryo and nations, " Bishman's fall is possible the higher development of the world will be. The people who are the most unlikely and the most so-called the British will be so far off from the brief and iron hand; they will not be the most unlikely and the most so-called the British will be so far off from the 低阶世界化的世界 but she is afraid if she gives freedom to Ireland, all her other dominions will cry out "We want curs" and therefore they will not give Ireland freedom. You know that is the very thing that is going to bring about the downfall? The Downfall of the British Empire Political students see that already the great dominions of Great Britain have started to prepare for the time of their freedom, and Canada, the sister nation on the border, has prepared herself already. The average man probably statesman does not see it, but the keen political observer sees it and knows it. A couple of months ago the Canadians said, "We want our own ambassador in Washington because we feel that the Canadian can better represent the interests of Canada at the court of Washington. Why they are feeling out and traveling toward the destiny of their freedom and their independence. A British Ambassador has always represented Canada ever since Canada became a dominion of Great Britain. Now they say, "We think we would like to have a Canadian ambassador, even if we don't want to be sent to the territory is at the court of Washington." They passed a law in the British Parliament just a few months ago that a Canadian must accept a knighthood from the British sovereign. What does that mean? It means that a Canadian accepting a knighthood from a British sovereign will from a British sovereign loyalty to that British sovereign to that British sovereign, because he is knighted, he is honored because of his service to the empire, and therefore, if he desires to porcupate his honor and to climb to still higher things, he will do more or be inspired to do more for that empire to become a knighthood from a British sovereign. Therefore, the Canadian says, "We will accept no honor; we will accept a title from anyone except it is bestowed upon us by Canada." Every political student can see in that determination of Canada to be free from England in a short while, and they are awaiting the opportunity to strike the first blow against the seen of the dismemberment of empires, the fall of nations and empires, and that is why we are organizing. We are not going to start any fight; but we are just going to walk into what we want. We are going to walk into the "New Jerusalem"—I mean the New Africa. Take Spain and little Morocco. Moors, Moors, Moors, them, have been giving the Spaniards, the ancient fighters of bygone days with great glory and renown, such a hard battle, and those Moors have not been trained as we have been trained in the best military schools in the world. If they can hold the Spanish Empire, they can for so long, how long, how long, trained in military tactics hold the forces that control Africa at bay? For eternity. Let me say to you, men, the freedom of Africa is not impossible. The freedom of Africa may come at any minute, because no empire, no nation, according to the attitude of empires and nations, has a mortgage on its own existance. In each and every one of them there is social unrest. Let it be Germany, the " be " England, let it be France. Let it be Italy or of them now are disturbed with mental unrest. The shares endeavoring to rise against the oppression of the monopolists of their country. And that is why we say we cannot afford to make a mistake in our travel toward the destiny of empire. It is for us in our sober plans and in our soher intelligence to analyze nations of the past—their histories—and pick out the best in every government, whether that's government or state. But, on parachute, whether it be democratic, whether it be society—it is for us to pick out the best of every government and model of the world—it is such a way that all the clifers of this country are not outstated; and all the clifers of this government will be so sympathy with the other. Hornan's Dynasty Ulysses firmamented the building called human ayes. In the late 19th century, human power was the only one which you know primarily to form destiny for the town. And it is not the same as the is so much commotion, so much rebellion and so much war. We cannot, therefore, afford to travel) in the way of others; the mistakes they have made are too numerous. So I am warning you from Liberty of government, the government; you may rise to become statesmen, you may rise to become diplomats, you must fashion your ambition after the history of the past and the history of the present that has brought about the downfall of empires and of nations. That is why we are in the government; that is why the Universal Negro Improvement Association is made up of so many different kinds of governmental form. We are Republicans, we are Democrats, we are Monarchists in principle, we are Soviets in practice, we are Soviets in every administration and the good in every government and people. Who knows but that the new system of Sovietism will not solve in a way this restlessness among governments, but the white people have no patience with themselves even to draw out that which they want to bring to peace and to bring about peace among themselves. We know nothing about the Soviet Government more than the statements of people—from what I have heard and read—that there is good in our democratic government, and that there is good in the archival government of Great Britain. It is for us, therefore, to pick out the good in every government. The Soviet's desire, I understand, is to place property in the control of the State, and cause the State to administer property. That is why no one will have a monopoly on property. That is a very good system. Why should one man have billions of dollars and the other man be hungry all the time? You cannot have good government that way; you must have anarchy, you must have mollition, you must have ultimately revolution. Therefore, all these things are to be considered. We have, as we travel towards empires, to lay down principles that will cause every one within our government to feel satisfied. It is true that they accuse us of a system of government of desiring to place all men on an equal scale. They argue that all men cannot be on an equal scale because some men are indolent and some men are lazy and will not utilize the forces and elements within them for their batterment while they are fair to those who use their best energies to rise above their fellows, to bring them back to a common level. That may be reasonable in a way, but why not, at the same time, considering that all of us cannot be in the same scale as those who use devices some means whereby the files of property of all in common, and provide some means by which ability can be honored and respected without affecting the common rights of all? All these things should be considered, and the Negro Improvement Association Negro Improvement toward the destiny of government, have to consider all these things. Fellowship the Guiding Principle So I turn you now, you young men and you young women who want to enter the civil service of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and who will become the future representatives of this movement, that should guide you the first principles that should guide your fellow lawyers with your fellow men of your own race to stretch out to them the hand of fellowship, and the hand of love. The moment you cease to do that, you are traveling on the downward trail. This moment we take love. HERB DOCTOR Farm House 703 www.herbdoctor.com For more information call 703-822-2222 www.herbdoctor.com and sympathy for others out of the Universal Negro Improvement Association we are defeating the object we have in view. Now, understand me. I am not telling you to distract me from the task. I am saying you must confine it among yourselves. Even though in the future we may have to exercise and demonstrate love and charity to all, yet we cannot afford to do it now because we have done it in the past and it has not benefited us. We must not be charismatic to others and deprived ourselves of it and we have not traveled very far on it. I believe if one desires to do good by his people, the first thing he has to do is not to go through with his policy of good things to others and therefore you must get among them and be bad just as they are, so that when you become wise to their way you will say, "After all, this thing does not pay, all of us should be good," and because they recognize you as a leader among them. We must not be charismatic. What do I mean by this? I mean that we cannot start out now to practice virtues to others because nobody is going to listen to you. You have to meet the other fellow on his own battleground and knock him down, and you must say, "This is the way you ought to go." So that you young statement—you budding leaders of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who are to lead this organization on toward the goal of achieving justice and equality and mercy that men should love and sympathize with the people and to ensure a perpetual ten of peace. I thank you for your presence in Liberty Hall tonight and I trust you will continue to come out during the week every night and to meet me in the months that I will be in New York. I will make it my duty to speak on these subjects touching on the great issue of government and touching on the issues of our object and our ideal. I will come out to hear them. (Applause.) REV. J. W. EA8ON'S 8PEECH The American Leader of Negroes, the Nov. Dr. J. W. Eason, spake as follows: His Excellency, the Provisional President of Africa and President-General, the Right Honourable Members of the High Executive Council, Officers and Diseases and Gentlemen: I am happy this evening to have the opportunity of being in Liberty Hall once more on a Sunday night, and after listening to that very instructive and inspiring address by our President-General administrator of this wonderful movement, and President of the Negro New York local, I feel more like taking my seat in the room for a conversation for the second time than I do to speak at this particular time. I have not been able to speak very much for the last ten days on account of not being altogether as well physically as I should like to have been. I talked a little longer this afternoon than I expected to talk, because the room was quite empty. I feel. I can always do better at three o'clock than I can at any other time. Some folks can talk better at eleven o'clock in the morning; others can speak best at night; but I am not a morning preacher nor a night preacher. I usually get my best speeches off in the early morning. I have always been in the afternoon. But when I am in Liberty Hall I always become so filled with inspiration that it is a little hard for me to put on the brakes. U. N. I. A. Making Friends Everywhere Tonight I want you to go home with the impression upon your minds that is already upon you—that the Universe is a great big movement for it is THE NEW YORK CITY REPUBLICAN CORPORATION THE NEW YORK CITY REPUBLICAN CORPORATION challenging not only the attention of the world, but it is also bringing into its fold some of the most brilliant minds, and some of the most noted men of the race as well as making friends with them. For example, just recently a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, a personal friend and acquaintance of ours, was elected a magistrate—a Negro—of the great city of Philadelphia; a member of the minor judiciary of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania at this time in a Negro Improvement Association, of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League. (Applause.) Two years ago not a Negro in Pennsylvania could get the endorsement of the powers that were—I mean the political machine. Why? Because Negroes were not organized. But the present Secretary-General of the President of the Philadelphia Division, made so much noise in Philadelphia by talking big things there concerning the aims and objects of our association, and caused so many people in Philadelphia to think and talk about it, favorably and unfavorably, that the white people there unfavorably, that the white people there were not in the association of the management Association was—as it actually is—the greatest and most powerful Negro organization in the world, and themselves decided to nominate a Negro for office—for the judiciary, and the Negro thus honored and nominated did not have the white people having nominated him easily won the election. (Applause.) The Power of Organization This shows you the power of organization. It shows how Negroes can bring things to pass for their own good when they follow the proper kind of leader and when they go out and move and while for the good of the race as a whole and the uplift of humanity. I for one believe in putting over programs. My way of doing things, of "putting things over," may be just a little different from those of other people, but I usually get there, just the world can know that I am there (Laughter.) So far as tactics are concerned, that makes little difference: that's my bungalow.

MISS, HAGAN WILL AFRAID IN PIANO, RECITAL AT AEOLIAN HALL 34 West 438 Street Monday Evening, October 10, 1921 DR. LESTER TAYLOR This life today needs a constructive definition. To give strength and confidence to the rapidly crystallizing pride she holds and consciousness of the Mercee of the Western Hemisphere that, philbermae must now give expression to their thoughts and opinions are alone in the spoken word, which the Feath but a comparatively small audience and is soon forgotten, but in books and pamphlets which carry into all the books and cranches of the case, which keep the thought and soul of the individual who gave them birth alive and active for the good of his fellows long after he is dead. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, charged with the responsibility of freeing the four hundred million oppressed Negroes of the world and with the redemption of Africa, is now raising a universal fund to capitalize its work for the freedom of Africa. The Second Annual International Convention of the Negro peoples of the world legislated that a capitalization fund for the propagation of the work be raised from among all Negroes under the caption of "The African Redemption Fund"; that each member of the Negro race be asked to donate five dollars ($5.00) or more to the fund for the cause of world-wide race adjustment, and the freedom of Africa. Each and every Negro contributing to this fund will receive a certificate of race loyalty given by the Universal Negro Improvement Association with the autographed signatures of the Provisional President of Africa, the Secretary General and High Chancellor of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Today the Negro race is straining its right and secure for itself and potency that individual and collective liberty of thought and action, equality of political economic and educational opportunity, freedom of growth and development necessary to its preparation if it is to play that important and honorable part in the future of the human race which we would have it play. It will not be content to be given a bodge-podge and cheap imitation of the played-out, discarded and misfitting religious dogmas, moral and ethical codes, ideals and philosophies of life produced by the hypocritical and arrogant civilization which oppresses it. If you are a race patriot, if you are desirous of seeing your race liberated, if you are desirous of seeing Africa free from oppression, if you are desirous of building up a great Negro race, you will send in your five dollars or more immediately to the "African Redemption Fund." Send postal money order, money mail order, check or American currency in registered cover, made out to the Universal Negro Improvement Association. All resigntances must be made out to the association and not to individuals. Address your communication to Secretary General, Universal Negro Improvement Association, 56 West 135th street, New York City, N. Y., U. S. A. All donations to this fund will be acknowledged in The Negro World, week by week, and a book of donors will be printed and circulated all over the world as a record for succeeding generations of Negroes to see and know those who contributed to the liberation of the race and the freedom of Africa. Send in your five dollars or more now. It demands something new, something more forward-looking and nearer truth than the unwary productions of an alien and decadent race. It demands something that is bone of its bone and flesh of its flesh, something that is eternally and unqualifiedly by every car-mark and characterize its very own. In its literature it would have humor and laughter, not the insulting parody that parades by that name in the novel. It would have elements and joke columns and dialect stirs, but a dignified expression of that wealth of honest glee that has carried it through three centuries of torture and deprivation in an unknown land, in the center of an alien and cruel race. It would have tears but have the emotions and higher philosophic life of life, but all must be original, self-produced, stamped with that depth of character and power of intellect that gave to the human race 1. first civilization. To give it this is the noble task to the solvatives and thinkers of the world. "Bowel Books!" Books!

The popular literature of hostile which civilization is rapidly becoming more and more inapid and unsatisfying to the discriminating taste of the urge and growing Negro reading publics who render no longer longer interest and amusement in the world, where all the heroes and heroes are white, and his own kind only appear as subordinates, buffoons, or civilizers and the thoughtful are only too well aware of the harmful and deprived psychological effect of plastic minds of the immature. The new Ethiopian is struggling to attain intellectual freedom, even as he is struggling to obtain political and economic freedom. He guls and knows that he has a philosophy of life, higher and true in his moral and political sense of government more equitable and beneficial to all than the existing pseudo-democracies of white civilization and more practicable than the Utopian dreams of the ignorant and oppressed white working classes: a religious conception clearer, purer, bigger and more narrow, bigged and hypocritical dogma of white Christians. Heart and brain whisper to him that even as in the dim past his progenitors upon their ancient civilization enawed forth the first civilization power of the virile blood of the primitive heirs of the virile blood of his Vulpes bring forth the super-civilization. Around him he sees his rare pregnant with future greatness. In his ears he hears the portentious stirrings and rumblings that accrue from his position among cunning people. He knows the esotericology, the etiology, the ethics, the morality, the philosophy of white civilization with the useless and ruthless attitudes of one forced to sit alight in the company of math who civilization him now, at all whose civilization he sees, while they dislodge in no unpertinent terms him thaliminia and the world at large unconstrained and uncompressed, him frightly and contemptuous, themselves arrogant, and heartily, and the hearts as though it were their painful proximity.

U. O. of Old Fellows in the State. He O. of Old Fellows Tuesday night on a street corner here. His murderer, John Philchard, a drunken white man, is looked up in jail awaiting action of the grand jury. Mr. Long was on his way home from the store of Noah Gentry shrimp including Pilchard. Asked if he had any weapons, Mr. Long replied, "Na" Pilchard then drew a knife, opening a wound in Long's abdomen from which he died almost immediately. Funeral took place from Mt. Klin Church at 6 o'clock yesterday, and was attended by people of white and people by whom he is universally mourned. "Stephen H. Long cannot be replaced," declared J. W. Huntington, supervisor of colored schools in Maryland, when Mr. Long's murder was solved. Mr. Long was a representative of the African American telephone Wednesday morning, "so he was one of the best school men in the state, and cut for whom I had a warm personal regard." Y. H. C. A.

Cuba YOU MUST GET RID OF THAT CATARRIE The amount of sickness and suffering in the world is not surprising when we remember that ninety-seven persons out of every hundred have catarrh in some form, and that most of the diseases of the human family may be described as a catarrhial condition. PE-RU-NA Endorsed by Your Parents and Grandparents The same inflammation and irritation of the mucous membrane found in the nose and throat in connection with nasal catarrh may also be located in any other organ of the body. All this inflammation, the poison must be removed and properly eliminated to the diseased mucous membrane. The same cause of Pe-ru-na upon the organ of digestion and absorption helps to puny and enrich the blood. The elements of nutrition and health are carried to every organ and extremity. While the result following the intelligent use of Pe-ru-na contained seem little about of marvelous, it is not claimed that the nature of an "urgeall" Pe-ru-na possesses team, property, which in other qualities make it a most powerful agent in soothing severe nays, in bringing every vital organ into normal order and restoring the natural strength and vigor of the body. Two generations have known Pe-ru-na for what it is an effective emergency remedy, a powerful health building force, every form and share.

DR: DIP BOIS' MODUS OPERANDI REALIZING that he was losing his grip on Negro leadership in America, the learned Dr. Du Bois tied himself to Brussels, Paris and London, endeavoring to bolster up his popularity through the so-called Pan-African conference, which would give him plenty of advertisement: We have casually watched the career of Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois there we were a schoolboy. We have long discovered that he is very ambitious. That is quite natural. For a man to graduate from Flake University and then from Harvard University as commencement orator, he receive a scholarship and fellowship, spending a couple of years in the Harvard Graduate School and a couple of years in German universities, whilst a Harvard Ph.D. and not be ambitious would be unnatural. So there is no sit or crime in Dr. Du Bois being ambitions. The struggle for bread and the spirit of ambition have been dynamic factors in But the trouble with our friend Dr. Du Bols is that, although a man of keen perceptions, remarkable acquaintive powers, poetic imagination and seductive charm as a writer, he is not a constructive, creative and original thinker. He rarely originates anything, but usually appropriates and modifies the ideas of others and then critically surveys his beneficiaries instead of acquiring his indebtedness to them. He is a great philosopher rather than a great creator. Perehpa Dr. Du Bols is an original animation artist the businessmen to take the initiative, preferring his skill and see how others succeed before plunging in himself. At any rate, Dr. Du Bols is rarely the proponent or path blazer in anything. Twenty-five years ago Mrs. Idus D. Wells Barnett aroused the country by her anti-lynching crisade. Twelve years ago, when the N. A. A. C. P. was formed, Dr. Du Bols incorporated the anti-lynching campaign in the propaganda of the N. A. A. C. P. without giving her credit. Twenty years ago Editor William Monroe Trotter, assisted by George Washington Forbes, started the Boston Guardian and formed a special organization, advocating the constitutional rights and citizenship of the Negro. Eight years later De. Du Bols started a magazine and formed an organization for the same purpose, only he brought into it writings on lynching, wealth and influence. Instead of being grateful for Trotter for giving him an idea, Dr. Du Bols characterized him as a genius. Sixteen years ago another colored man began to travel and lecture on Negro history. Finally, he published a history of the Negro. Dr. Du Bois criticized the man and his work, characterized him as an upstart and then, about six or seven years ago, published a smaller history of the Negro. He keenly likened the Egyptians to American mulattoes, quadrants and octoburrow, and stated that whenever a Negroid race manifested mental intelligence, refinement and force of character, it was taken out of the Negro category, without stating that the "upstart" first called attention to these facts and other facts, such as that only a small percent of the dominant races possessed remarkable ability and that they blamed the way for the rest. Ten years ago Duse Mohammed All of London wrote to Dr. Booker Washington, Dr. W. S. Scarborough and Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, attaining that he contemplated starting a magazine to federate the darker, races of his world and cause a better understanding between the white and black races. Dr. Washington and Dr. Scarborough wrote encouraging calls to Dr. Du Bois wrote a reply which Duse Mohammed characterized both pollinates and disappointing. And then forthwith Dr. Du Bois, in the winter of 1919, called the Pan-African Conference in Paris and encroached to put Duse Mohammed's ideas into execution. man criticizing them and appropriating, modifying and militizing their ideas and plans at the same time. The Scriptures say, he who loses his life shall save it and he who saves his life shall lose it. A man cannot become a leader of hundreds of thousands by helping and serving himself first, but by helping and serving others. Dr. Du Bois has rendered black folk valuable service as the literary interpreter of their higher strivings and the volcer of their protest against the spirit of caste. He is cultured, polished and refined, but his reserve and isolation, his critical and hypercritical nature, his difficulty in properly appraising ebony-hued individuals and his hesitancy in giving praise and credit to black men prevent his evolving into a leader towards whom the hearts of the masses of his race and struggling scholars, writers, artists, poets and musicians will warm. While possessing the combination of qualities which make one a successful editor, author, professor and social leader, Dr Du Bois does not possess the combination of qualities which make one a born leader of men. W. H. F. KNOWLEDGE FOR THE ASKING LAST Saturday we went to 125th street, New York City, to get a tip for a Bermuda cedar cane. We passed a book store advertising second-hand books for 20 cents. Then we came to another book store which advertised second-hand books for 10 cents. Then we stopped and proceeded to buy. And this is what the expenditure of 50 cents brought us: "Talks on Writing English," 321 pages, by Arlo Bates; "Historic Town, Boston," 242 pages, by Senator Cabot Lodge; "Wenders of Science, the Sun," 297 pages, by Amedee Guillemin; "Climate Considered Especially in Relation to Man," 372 pages, by Robert De Courcy Ward, assistant professor of climatology in Harvard University, and "Achievements in Engineering," 311 pages, by T. F. Vernon-Harcourt, M A., W. Inst. C. E. That is to say, for 50 cents we purchased one book in pure science, two in applied science, one in history, one in literature, each written by an expert in his line, the set embracing in total 1,543 pages, or 31 pages of valuable information for one cent. This we regard as knowledge for the asking. For 50 cents the purchaser of those books will read about and see the pictures of twenty-three of the most marvelous engineering feats of the nineteenth century, will study the relations between weather and climate and a few of the more important diseases, will learn all about the sun, which lights and warms this planet on which we live, will understand the forces which made Boston the Athens of America and will have an opportunity to grasp the principles underlying the art of writing. We were told in our school days "knowledge is power." Knowledge enables a man to live in hostile climates, combat diseases, perform surgical operations, bridge chasms, tunnel mountains, erect skyscrapers and floating palaces, fly in the air like a bird, sail under the water like a fish, reproduce the human voice on the phonograph, cast moving pictures on the screen by the vitascope, talk to a man three thousand miles away, cable a message across the ocean and flash a message by wireless across the ether of space. Knowledge will not do everything for a man. The human equation, human initiative and human resourcefulness come into play in the wise use of knowledge, but it places powerful weapons in the hands of a man. As we said in our pamphlet on Alexander Crummell, "The same reason that led the American mind to discountance the Negro's higher aspirations and strivings and longings caused Dr. Crummell to encourage them. He realized that living in the same country with the American white man, facing the same problems and conditions, the Negro needed the same kind of education and training that the white man needed, or he would lag hopelessly behind in the race of life. General Armstrong once trumpphantly told a class of colored students at Hampton: 'Hampton will give you enough education to cope with any colored men you may meet.' But Dr. Alexander Crummell saw deeper. He saw that the Negro needed also an education that would enable him to cope on equal intellectual terms with any white men that he might meet. For that reason the Negro needed to dip into literature, history, philosophy, psychology, sociology, sciences, anthropology and ethnology; needed in a word to be kept in touch with the trend of modern science and the tendencies of modern thought." W. H. F. WHEN THE CAT IS AWAY THE old saying runs thus: "When the cat is away the mice will play." Mr. W. I. Walls, editor of the Star of Zion, the official organ of the A. M. E. Zion Church, published in Charlotte, N. C., is attending the Ecumenical Missionary Convention, held in London, and Reva. J. Francis Lee, R. Fagley Fisher and W. H. Davenport are trying their hands at writing editorials. One of these gentlemen in the September 8 issue contributed an editorial on "The Garvey Movement and the Negro in America." He mentioned the seven assets and eight liabilities of the Garvey movement. We don't spend much time on small game or answering amateur understudies, but there is one statement that we desire to take exception to, as it reiterates the charge of Bishop Smith. It says: "It has its leadership in the hands of men who have never succeeded in any chosen field of endeavor." Among those leading the Garvey movement are one statesman of worldwide fame, two writers of international fame, two lawyers of national fame, two clergymen of world renown, a successful physician, a successful soldier, an educator of note and bright, energetic young men. But this is not our point. The miraculous rise and growth of the U. N. L. A., which in three years and a half has corralled and mobilized more members than the A. M. E. Church, the A. M. E. Zion Church and the N. A. A. C. P. combined, indicates that the massed dissatisfied with the old leadership and standards of success. One distinguished scholar wrote us recently: "The race is not suffering from factionalism in the ordinary acceptation of that term. The bulk of our 'leaders' accept offices on any terms the whites impose, and then there is a small minority who protest against existing conditions. The masses are looking for some wise, bold, vigorous leaders to voice their feelings and aspirations." There was a time when a clergyman who built a magnificent church and then departed for large fields, leaving a huge debt for the people to struggle with or write pulled to get a large church was regarded as a successful minister. There was a time when an educator who compromised the rights of his race or pulled wires to gain the chair in a large university or the principalship of a high school or the presidency of a State college was regarded as a successful educator. There was a time when a politician who compromised the manhood rights of his race or pulled wires to get a political job was regarded as a successful political leader. There was a time when a business man who fleeced his partner, underpaid his help, overcharged his patrons, patricians, clients or tenants, and consequently accumulated a small fortune, was regarded as a successful business man. But the new Negro has a different standard of leadership and different standard of success. His standard of leadership and success is not the man who elevates himself either ecclesiastically, educationally or politically at the expense of the race. His standard of leadership and success is not the man who will use the cry of "race first" as a horse on which to inhabit a community facing donations, offices or jobs. But the LIVING IN A FOOLS PARADISE No race among the heterogeneous races which go to make up the American population is less secure in the rights which it imagines are safeguarded by the Constitution under which we live than the Negro race. We are the most dependent and the most helpless among all the alien races in America, and we have no way legally or otherwise to enforce our demands for justice or to redress any wrongs inflicted upon us by any element of the white race within the limits of the United States. For more than eighty years we have been an animated protest against the injustices of the white race, but injustice still continues. Political, economic, social, industrial wrongs are just as fragrant and our position in the nation just as humiliating as it ever was, and ever will be as long as we remain a dependent and suppliant and disorganized race. When the white man founded this government more than a hundred years ago there were two races: one he found here when he came to this country, and one he brought here by force to till his fields and clear the waste places to make them habitable for white men. These he never intended should attain relative position with his own—the Indian and the Negro. In making laws for the government of the country, the white man, looking ahead for a hundred years, provided that no Indian or Negro should be allowed to inherit the land, for if this were permitted, it would give to these races the "right imminent," and so the old English law of entail was invoked to protect the white men and their heirs forever in their property rights and to safeguard them from social alliances (that could be legally recognized) with the red Indian and their African slaves, whose slavery was the bar sinister to their social recognition. The Indian, whom he could not enslave, he eliminated by the processes usually employed by "civilized and Christian nations" when they covet what is not legally their own, and usually obtain by fraud, war or revolution. Thus the Island of Manhattan—the Greater New York—was obtained by fraud from its Indian owners for the ridiculous sum of $24, and the white man's conscience has never seemed to trouble him since he perpetrated this monstrous act of robbery upon the verdant and unsuspecting Red Man. With equal boldness he robbed the Africans, not only of their bodies, but of their labor, and piled up millions on millions of wealth from the unrequited toil of these black men and women, whose sweat and brawn and blood laid the foundation of some of the greatest fortunes in America, and educated thousands on thousands of white men and women, the descendants of whom now seem to regard the Negro as a menace and an interloper and treat him as a "stranger," a "sojourner" in the land which his labor for over three hundred years has made to blossom as the rose. The Indian cannot inherit the land; the Negro cannot inherit the land. They can possess it, and think it is their own, but in the final analysis they will discover that their title to ownership is as flimsy as the web of a spider and their deed to it only a scrap of paper. The government may at any time possess itself of the property of any Negroes and Indians by the application of the law of eminent domain, appraise the property desired for the public use, pay the putative owners thereof and take possession; but the Astor, Vanderbilt, Carnegie, Rockefeller and Gould properties are subject to no such arbitrary action by the government. These properties will be handed down from generation to generation of these families, whose present owners know and feel that their title to them is as secure and as solid as the Rock of Gibraltar. It is because the Indian and Negro races are weak that advantage is taken of them. Nobody believes that Negroes anywhere in America who boast of their landed possessions have any more than a temporary grasp upon these possessions, and that this grasp can be loosened very easily by the application of the white man's elastic laws, which have done wonders in the past—both as regards the property and civil and political rights of the Negro, who is just as helpless now as he was a hundred years ago, and just as powerless to redress his wrongs and demand even-handed justice as he ever will be in any country in which white men make, interpret and enforce the laws which govern and control. The Negro can never beat such a combination unless he can become a controlling part of it, and this the dominant white race in no country will permit him to do. He must, therefore, remain the under-dog in the white man's countries, or found one of his own where he can be as potential a force as is the white man in his own country. Briefly, these are the facts, stripped of all illusions and pipe dreams; and we must say en passant that to this complexium the Negro everywhere must ultimately come. J. E. B. AN EUCLIDIAN PROBLEM- MAYBE ABSENTEES FROM THE PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS Our impartial and trustworthy London correspondent, Richard Mendon, Esq, in his letter in last week's edition of the *Negro World*, commenting on the "Pan-African Congress," which was recently assembled "in Lunnon Town," among other things observed: "The Pan-African Congress met at the Central Hall, Westminster, London, today (August 31, 1921) for the final session here. The congress had for its meeting place one of the various chambers of the Parliament, including, and capable of seating 300 persons, etc." Now here is where the problem begins. Dr. Du Bole, caring to an American compatriot from "Lunnon," employs this language: "Seven sessions successful, audience two thousand." Now only one of these two men is telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. If the chamber in which these sessions were held only holds "about 300" the answer to the problem is easy, and the reader can pick his Annales without batting an axilash. Gold Coast, Abyssinia, Liberia, Gibraltar, Gambia, Northern and Southern Nigeria, Ivory Coast, South Africa, Ashanti, Natal, Basutuland, Rhodesia, Kimberley, East Africa, Balgian Congo, Orange Free State, Bohuannand, Bwasiland, etc. And what other parts of the world? If "Pan" means all, IT is pretty certain that all Africa was SLIGHTED by Dr Du Dola, and that his thirty delegates and £200 white "sudiences" only represented themselves on the junket to England, Belgium and "Gay Pares." There has been no "Pan-African" Congress in Europe this year, because ALL- AFRICA didn't respond to the Du Bole calls too. PAN-AMERICAN and PAN-AFRICAN Congress are composed of all Americans or all Africans. Du Bole's congress was a racial adulteration, and therefore, in no sense PAN-AFRICAN. Next year the Doctor will have to increase the size of his "pain" and put nausea but "limon pure Africans in it if he wishes the public to believe in his" PAN-African "junket." DOES EDUCATION PAY? In every walk of its we mid-day ourselves confronted with these two opposing qualities. The former, it leads to success and happiness, while the latter leads to sorrow and distress. It is also that these two qualities cannot be adopted at the same time; girls must be either good or evil, and not good and evil. Yet we find man who without any desire to be good claiming to be good, or doing evil under the pretence of being good. In my estimation, good and evil are first found among man in thought form. Here we find evil thoughts corrupt and destroy good thoughts, and we also find that good thoughts properly applied, entitle all evil thoughts. From thought, then it goes to deeds or words, whether good or evil. But here we have before us evidence of good thought force, thought force in its practical usage: the Universal Negro Improvement Association an organization that stands supreme. The possibilities of good thoughts, coupled with preservation and determination, all wisely applied by the master mind, stands to the world as a mighty floating power plant of dynamic force. It is an organization which upholds the doctrine of the Nazarete; thy duty to God and man. Love God and thy neighbors as myself, a doctrine which the Caucasian in all his high-sounding words in the guise of democracy fails to make practical. To love or fear God does not necessarily mean to be afraid of Him; for we cannot serve God and be afraid of Him. Reviewing the two commandments on which hangs all the laws of the propheta, we find that they are sub-divided into three duties. The first duty is to love the Lord thy God. The second is to love yourself. The third to love their neighbor as thyself. Having these duties handed to us by Christ Himself, it is necessary that we perform them. So we find that to serve God aright we must love Him. To serve ourselves aright as men it is necessary that we love and respect ourselves. So also for us to live with our neighbors as men among men we must love one another "Be kindly affectioned one to another" (Romans 12, chapters 9-10). We find that this love classified in holy wint has been destroyed by the Caucasian in his greed for power and wealth, and his race prejudice; so to restore such love we must maintain a permanent base—"Africa." The Negro, as a race, four years ago, misinterpreted these laws by loving his neighbors and not himself also. He was more a self-delian than a man. Having been commanded to love God, ourselves and then our neighbors, and having the knowledge that all men were created equal, we the Negroes have no just reason to be afraid nor to cringe. . . . And viewing from a right angle we shall see to it that after God we have our "race fuel." "For God and know no other fear" "Acquit yourselves like men and Lo trong." Arise then mother Africa. Dry ye thine tears, and bind thy blood the wound. ing wound. See thy sons united stand. For thy freedom that must soon To thee thy ancient glories restore While in love and justice Thou shall dwell for evermore Bons and daughters of Ethiopia "know thyself." Why stand ye idle? What account shall thou give to God, if you should have failed to be active in the great purpose for which thou wast made? Stand ye in truth by your fearless leader, the leader of leaders, a man who is divinely protected, a man who has blazed his path to success, a man, a noble man. Wait ye no more; embrace this opportunity as it knocks at your doors. Stand collectively and demand from the world what is yours by right. He encouraged, fellow citizens of Africa, that you, too were made a little lower than the angels and can succeed. As Jehovah is ruler over all things, even so was man made ruler over all earthly things. (Gen. 1:20). Why can't we achieve? The Universal Architect, at the completion of his handwork, pronounced man very good yet we find in our mind man continuing to charish the idea of being inferior, heavens of Word and drawers of water. Fool not itselfless fellow Africans; be preserverly led in your own interest; be advised, accept and give assistance. To the cause of the triumph for the right help the less fortunate among you to rise and, finally, when we in goodness shall have won our native land (Africa), enjoying the blessings of her children with the Red, the Black and the Green on her hillside, we may be with claim. Lord, is it good for us to be given glory to praise him to Thee. O God, forgive me forevermost. Recently Mr. Marcus Garvey, president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was quoted in one of the daily papers as making the following statement: The Universal Negro Improvement Association stands in opposition to the Pan-African Congress and to the leadership of Dr. Du Bois because they seek to bring about a destruction of the black and white races by the social amalgamation of both. The Dr. Du Bois group believe that Negroes should settle down in communities of whites and by social contact and miscegenation bring about a new type. The Universal Negro Improvement Association believes that both races have separate and distinct social destinies; that each and every race should develop on its own social lines, and that any attempt to bring about the amalgamation of any two opposite races is a crime against nature. This is a statement in which Mr. Garvey consciously or unconsciously plays to the most deep-seated prejudices of the white man in America. It is the very sort of a thing that Vardaman, Cole Gleasen and the rest of that ilk say and wish to have accepted. Does Mr. Garvey realize the full implication of his statement when he says that any attempt to bring about the amalgamation of any two opposite races is "a crime against nature"? Does he not see that a statement of this kind places the Negro in a position outside of the pale of the human race, somewhere between brute and man? These are the exact words that have been used by men like Vardaman, who wish to infer that in any such relationship between the white and black races the white is guilty of something akin to bestiality. Furthermore, if such a relation between white and black were a crime against nature, the result of such relationship would be a monstrosity of sin. Is Mr. Garvey willing to say that Frederick Douglas and Booker T. Washington were such monstrosities? If Mr. Garvey has the idea that the Negro, situated as he is in the United States, can fully duplicate the whole machinery of civilization, it is a sign of sheer simplicity. When Mr. Garvey talks about social equality he should not do so in the loose manner in which Southern white people talk. He should say what he means by "social equality." If by "social equality" is meant the forcing of one's self into social intercourse with others, no self-respecting Negro wants it. But if by "social equality" is meant the right of the Negro to participate fully in all of the common rights of American citizenship and to arrange his own personal associations, wherever those associations are mutually agreeable, without being prohibited by any ban either of law or mob opinion, then no Negro can be self-respecting who does not stand for it. It is on the cry of "social equality" in the loose sense that Negroes are refused in public places, driven out of Pullman cars, herded in "jim crow" pens, stuck up in the front end of street cars, given inferior schools and subjected to a hundred other humiliations and injustices. The only sensible definition of social equality is: The right of any person to associate with any other person when the wish to do so is mutual. Social equality in its strict sense should be a matter left entirely to individuals; but it is not. It is regulated by law and mob opinion. The Negro must either protest against such caste regulation or accept the position of self-acknowledged inferiority. At the mere words "social equality" some white people froth at the mouth and some colored people grow panic stricken. There is no necessity for either action. To the rabid whites we would say that there is no one in these United States so weak that he can be forced against his will to accept anybody's society. To the dissembling Negroes we would say that absolutely nothing is gained by letting the white man feel that we consider ourselves unfit for human association with the other groups in this country. We assume that Mr. Garvey is working for equality of opportunity for the Negro (we are discussing the Negro in the United States), and we assume also that he has too much sense to think it can be achieved by attempting to substitute black domination for white domination. By what feasible plan does Mr. Garvey propose to secure it? The only possible end of the race problem in the United States to which we can now look without despair is one which embraces the fullest co-operation between white and black in all the phases of national activity. If that end can be reached save through the recognition of all kinds of equalities, we should be glad to have Mr. Garvey tell us. Of course, there may some day arise one or two or three great empires in Africa that will compel the recognition of the full rights of men of African blood everywhere. But there may come sooner than expected the ultimate downfall of the white race. But, as Kipling would say, that is another story—in fact, a couple. AFRICAN NEWS AND BOINGS OF DETROIT, MICH. Influence of Hon. Rudolph F. B. Smith Cross Nurses set on the stage with choir before them and presented a beautiful spectacle. The president, Mr. W. O. Sinya, presented the speaker and loud cheers were echoed everywhere in the sports—Criket—United Defence Highland Park The Highland Park Uktet Club was again defeated by the United in a two day game, 89 to 47. The Hon. Rudolph B. B. Smith, the elected leader of the Eastern Provinces of the West Indies, was welcomed to Detroit on the 14th of September to meet him and friends of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. FORTY-FIRST AMNUAL SESSION Portin on the Crescent City— Unrepresented Delegation. NEW, ORLEANS, 2A, Sept. 7 (Special) Thousands, 2A, Sept. 14 from forty-one different States in the Union, are here in the forty-first convention. The Crescent City is beheaded (or the position, Special) beheading. The delegation threw suit, armor, money, weapons, and an explosive opening. Of the convention as twelve, fifty-third, forty-first, New Kempsey, Judeh, Bryanston, Illinois, called the "Southern." There were called the "Western." There were called the "Central." There were Marcus Garvey Annapara Contributing Editor of New York Age, James Weldon Johnson It is for me to inform James Weldon Johnson that I mean every word stated in the paragraph quoted from a letter of mine as published in the New York "Tribune," and which paragraph he placed under review in the New York "Age" of Saturday, September 24. In making this statement Johnson will therefore realize that I am conscious of the import of the paragraph. Mr. Johnson states that in my statement I am supporting "every sort of thing that Vardaman and Cole Blease and the rest of that lik say and wish to have accepted." It is for me to inform Mr. Johnson that I do not give two rows of pins for Vardaman and Cole Blease; I am concerned with the destiny of the Negro. If Vardaman and Cole Blease happen to say things that can be interpreted to mean the same things I say in the interest of my race, then Mr. Johnson is welcome to the comparison. I will not question Mr. Johnson's intelligence to ask him if he realizes the full import of what he states, because I am forced to accept Mr. Johnson as a leader of the Negro race, and, therefore, must give him credit for the intelligence of his own statement. Mr. Johnson and I differ in that Mr. Johnson and his associates and probably co-workers hanker after social equality with white people. I demand social justice. There is quite a difference between fighting for social equality and fighting for social justice. I would like to see the man who would be able to compel me by law or otherwise to accept him as my companion if I did not care to do so. This is forcing the issue of social equality; but I demand from every man in the name of and by the law my constitutional right to go anywhere in the country of which I am a citizen. This is the difference between the Pan-African Congress, Dr. Du Bols, Mr. Johnson and their followers, and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the movement I represent. If Negroes will stop making all this noise about social equality, giving white people the idea that we are bankering after their company, and get down to business and build up a strong race, industrially, commercially, educationally and politically, everything social will come afterwards. It is human to be prejudiced, it has been so since creation, and it will be so until Gabriel blows his horn; and where you have a race of slave masters admitting into citizenship a race of slaves, you are not going to expect the race of slave masters to yield up to the race of slaves, equality in everything, until the race of slaves has brought itself up to the standard of the race of slave masters. It is all toomfooley talking about a better time is coming when the white man's heart will be softened toward the Negro and will accept him as a social equal. You are crazy if you think that time will ever come on this side of Jordan until the Negro, either in America or elsewhere builds himself up as a great power to force the recognition of the world. Mr. Johnson well knows that I have no imputation against great men like Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington, but these men were brought into the world under unfortunate circumstances; they were brought into the world through bastardy, the rape of the one race upon the other, and the abuse and advantage of the mothers of the one race by the men of the other. Does Mr. Johnson want us to perpetuate that order of society by which we must bring in a race of illegitimate to be called in the future a race of bastards rather than for us to get among ourselves now and regulate the social order under which we should live? The difference between Mr. Johnson's policy and the Universal Negro Improvement Association's is that he believes that the only society for the Negro is that of the white man's. We believe to the contrary. We think that the black man's society is as good as that of any other race, and we are determined to build up a Negro society even superior to that of the whites. Therefore, we are not going to make any noise about social equality among white folks; we are going to use our time in building up a social standard among ourselves, and if Mr. Johnson and his followers will get off the subsidized pinnacle of looking to the white people for everything social and financial and depend upon the brown, sinew, sweat and ability of the Negro, it will be better for him and those who follow. Mr. Johnson defeats his own argument when he says that "it is on the cry of social equality that Negroes are refused in public places, driven out of Pullman cars, herded in Jim Crow pens, stuck up in the front end of street cars, given inferior schools, and subjected to a hundred other humiliations and injustices." This is just what we want to prove, and this is why we are demonstrating to the white race that we do not give a row of pins about social equality with them, because we believe in our own good company; whilst on the contrary Mr. Johnson is aggrievating this question of social equality by always wanting to be with the white folks. Now, who is doing more harm to the Negro race, Mr. Johnson or I? Johnson will agitate between now and eternity and he will never get social equality with white people, until he gets down and by a hard day's work builds up a race independently and then demand justice through the strength of the race. I am not going to waste time with Mr. Johnson and his associates waiting for white people to recognize me. I am going to put in all my time with my race and help to bring them to a standard where they will demand things and get them, and not beg and be refused. I am glad Mr. Johnson admits that one day two or three great empires in Africa will arise. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has traveled a long way to get Mr. Johnson and his followers to admit this. Thank God, the floor is drawing near. Good-bye. I am busy and don't care to go into details, but if you whit it I will spare a few minutes for you whenever you write. No one was done in this way of legislation, with the committee reported. There was an introductory term on by Dr. Draper of Illinois While the committee were out deliberating, the spiritual atmosphere was at its highest pitch, and the great National Kaplitia Chorus rendered many safes to them. There were more than five hundred following rendering selections from the same order. The morning service went up public when the other soon after a partial report of the end. Following committee had been fulfilled to the convention. They re-assembled at the 1st with devotions by Dr. Calvino of Illinois; Draper took a report and then at the meeting. The above was received from a friend who was minded to throw it away. Whether it originated with him I cannot say but it was delivered delightfully enough, to be preserved in The Negro World. The Negroes of Harlem such an extraordinary interest in the history of the Ki Klux Klan as given last Sunday evening at Room 3, Lafayette Hall, by the subject will be presented again at the same place on Sunday, October 2. The Freeman, a weekly magazine published by B. W. Hutchack, is his Westchester street, in the town of Fayetteville on "Hace and the Night of Man," analyzing the trend of Negro opinion on these two related topics. The themes of the book, "When Arrick 'Axwell' by Hubert Harrison of the 'Sanford International Convention of the H. N. A. of Mr. Hodge Kirton in the Negro World, of Mr. William Bridge and Mr. Marces Garvey, are lifted and appraised from the viewpoint of The Freeman in the most intellectual weekly among American whites. Mr. Lothrop Stoddard, the author of last year's most remarkable book, "The Rising Tide of Color Admistine World Supremacy," has just turned another book, "The New World of Islam," into a preparation still another on the Pan-African movement—the real one. Mr. Stoddard's study of the Mohammedan world is more sober in tone than his book of last year. In the language of our newspaper, it is more "scholarly" than its predecessor. But it is just as readable. It is packed, with information which should be carefully handled, and with races everywhere. Our local library should ask for it at the One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Street Library of the Public Library. A full and formal view of this instructive volume will be available. become wise and good. On our way down to the Valley, I library on Fortress, street last day, my attention was arrested by a vassal mistaking us men, the lad assembled in the adjoining park. They were dirty, unhaven, hungry and were white, while I watched certain other men, went among them, to the trees, up in some semaphore of temporary order and proceeded to dote, give a few cents for food of a meal ticket to each man, who got great, comfort, shone their cheerfulness from the knees, which had, been mobilised, some times ago to make, the world sate for—something. And, as I saw them, unfold their papers of identification. I could ask help thinking that the white race was exposing to me, which are calling into its wits and under, which it must soon succumb. How was a man of muscle and mind produced by the forces of white civilization, and for these it would find no over and over, work was even too. And this sort of thing requires at a certain and shorter periods—in the white man's world of blessing which he is anxious to impose upon people of other color to cut out such horrors fiercely to die.

We all know the church is doing a great work, but the church is hand-trapped. The creed of the church—that is the Christian church, is the creed of our oppressure—those who learn to believe in God, Christ and the prophets, ordained that the white man should rule and rule with an iron hand the teaching of his Bible, to the contrary nowwithstanding. We have always been willing to do whatever the laws commanded, but those who make the laws and present the Bible and the gospel refuses to abide by them, so what are we to do but organize and follow such great movement as the Ur.

By order UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION MARCUS GARVEY, President-General AFTER BREAKFAST LETTERS TO PRESIDENT OF THE U. S. A. I hope you had the leisure and the inclination to read the first of this series of open letters addressed to you, and that you have, thought about it. I am now addressing you a second letter, and will begin it by quoting articles XIV and XV, and the preamble to what most Americans call their Magna Charta—the Declaration of Independence. These citations contain the very essence of the law regarding the rights the status and the place of the unit denominated as citizens of the United States. The first defines who are or may become citizens, in these words: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States, nor shall any State deviate any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. The second article reads as follows: The United States shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. The third article reads as follows: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights governments are instituted among men deriving their just power from the consent of the governed, that whenever any form of government begins to violate these rights of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on high principles, and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. You are reported to have made the minimum statement to a delegation of colored men who recently called on Mr. President, was: "Gentlemen, I am thoroughly convinced in my mind that to the police shall I am going to integrate with reference to appointments and that that I am not going to appoint any colored men to public office in the states. Instead they will be given appointments in the Northwest States. This thing called the prejudice you cannot down by battling it, and the only salvation is see it; for the colored men in the South, is to fall into the gangs behind white leadership until he can, acting through Southern Legislature work out his diction. This is my policy and I am going to follow it live or die, drink or swim". I will receive comment for letter No. 2, Mr. President, but I may say that "now polite" if it is corrected enlist is nothing more than a base surrender to the Southern white men, calling themselves Republicans, who have repudiated the constitutional guaranteed made to the Negro is the political equal of white men, especially in the South, and have by specious argument and cosely words between golf games compelled the great chief magistrate of 146,000,000 people to adopt and accept the Southern view of the Negro citizen whose ballot is of the same size and color and potency as that of the white man, North or South, by declaring is to be your policy to abridge the rights and immunities of the black citizens by refusing to appoint them to Federal offices in the South. We will undertake to discuss the morality and justice of your decision in letter No. 2. Opinions will differ, of course, as to the political wisdom of your reported new policy with respect to the distribution of the Federal patronage at the South, and the exclusion of Negro citizens and voters from participation in the benefits of this patronage and of your right to abridge the right of any citizen to seek office within the State of which he is a citizen, tax-exempt, and has the right to deputy nomination to appoint to office in the South black man because they are black man, thus setting above him in the scale of political being white man at the South who are no more entitled to rank above him than he is to rank above them, both being equal politically. Respectfully. KU KLUX KLAN BARRED FROM MASKING IN TAMPA, FLORIDA TAMPA, Sept. 14—I will treat all masked persons alike and when I find any body of men parading the streets or holding meetings disguised with masks and robes they will be treated as though they were highwaymen." That was the ultimatum issued to the Ku Klux Klan with his attitude toward the Ku Klux Klan. He declared that he knows of no Ku Klux Klan organization in Hillborough county, but in the event that thugs in one of the masked paradigm "must be edited off their program and any other act-which do not strictly conform to Florida laws." Executive Secretary for Every Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association All Over the World ALL DIVISIONS of the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall now make arrangements to receive from the Parent Body, an Executive Secretary, who shall be a Civil Servant and bundled whose duty it shall be to work as an executive to the Division, to protect its members from loss or robbery through insufficiency, disloyalty or dishonesty of any other Officer or Member.

MARCUS GARVEY President-General CIVIL SERVICE, U. N. I. A. THE CIVIL SERVICE OF THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION is now open for all MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION of not less than six months' standing in the organisation who can pass the Examination in English; Arithmetic; Elocution; Bookkeeping; Penmanship and a general knowledge of the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Each successful candidate will have to put in two weeks at the National Headquarters of his or her country to gather routine information preparatory to entering on active service. It is a strange thing that, among Negroes supposed to be so keen and shrewd in the sense of material values, there should often be wanting—it would seem—an appreciation of the importance of being on time in keeping engagements. A man of affairs who belongs to a board, or a directorate, or a committee, knows from unhappy experiences, that if he comes to a meeting on the dot, he may find himself the only person there. In social matters, those who arrive at the hour named in the invitation may be pretty sure that they will have to sit waiting for a good many minutes before the other guests arrive. On one occasion a man, who is fond of his own name and his own renown, came fifty minutes late to a dinner and without apology. It was not a delicate compliment to the rest. Because of a bad habit into which the public has drifted—and not merely because of protracted or retarded meal hours—those who give concerts or presents play often begin very late, to try, if possible, to beat the late concerts at their own game. One finds a concert announced for 8.10 p. m. When a quarter of an hour is multiplied by the number of those present it may mean several days of human time—that is to say, of human energy—wasted. The U. N. I. A. must set a commandable example which others would do well to imitate. Let us begin our performances almost always on or close to the hour announced. Isn't it time to swear off on the national vice of unpunctuation? Can't we be prompt in something besides dispatching trains, which are sent off on time? Can't we be prompt in those usual daily contacts between people, in the ordinary affairs of home and business, where it helps everyone much if these are great, the exact hour and hinder greatly if some, often far, carelessness or rank thoughtlessness, are late?

We have come late, very late into the arena. Now that we have come, there is of hate. A timorous people, which knows not how to use its elbows, may, of course, put a stop to the increase of its population—it might find things to morrow in the other fellow's home. The superfluity of population might find no economic existence. A people happy in its future, however, knows nothing of an artificial limitation; its only care can be to find room on the globe for a livelihood for the other members of its own race. But can such a state of thing continue forever? Can a great and rapidly increasing people like the Negro race forever forego future progress and a further extension of its political, industrial and commercial powers? Can we be satisfied forever with our present acanty means of existence and with our endangered position in the center of a world torn with strife, intrigue and tortormil? Is it right for us to run the risk, so that the increase of our population may be lost again to our own country, as it used to be in former years, and perhaps serve to enhance the power of those countries which are hostile to us? Is it not our duty to open up new spheres of work which will further the interest of our "paternity" Africa to all those intellectual forces of which there is a surplus in the United States, forces which so often strive in vain to find an outlet for their energy? It is not only our sacred duty as a people to strive for the realisation and accomplishment of all these purposes, but it will soon be found to be a necessity which will assert itself with elemental force. We shall then be compelled, by the pressure exerted by the national will, to exchange the policy of resignation and renunciation to which we have adhered all these years for a policy pursuing positive alme—strengthening of our position among the nations, the final reckoning with our detractors; the extension of our possessions, in order to find new dwelling places under our "own flag" for the For Every Division Negro Improvement Over the World The Negro Improvement Association shall from the Parent Body, an Executive Agent and bonded, whose duty it shall be assigned, to protect its members from loss of identity or dishonesty of any other Officer.

The pre-convention entertainment and reception was an event of unusual importance.

THINKS NEGRO MISREPRESENTED Having read an article in a recent issue of your paper, under date of September 6, purporting to be the expression of Dr. W. K. Du Blai and other coworkers of his self-appointed delegates to the Pan-African congress, now being held in Paris and London, we, the un-derstood native Africans, recently arrived from the western, eastern and southern, coasts of Africa, do hereby respectfully request that you give public notice to the committee that there has been a phoenix among the New people of the world headed by and Morgan that his first, the general approval of the masses of the Negro race has made the Universal Negro Improve- Date ment Association, its aims, objects and principles as enunciated by Hon. Marcus Garvey. We, therefore, deny that Dr. Du Bois and his co-workers represent the sentiments of the masses of the Negro peoples of the world. We desire to state that Dr. Du Bois and his associates, when they state that Africa is not for the Africans, are unworthy of membership in the Negro race, and not only should oceatraced but should be eliminated from any consideration whatsoever at the hands of the masses of the Negro peoples of the United States of America. Further, that the objects, purposes and principles, as the Pan-African Congress has set forth, do not in any way tend to the amaloration of the condition of the Negro people of the world or as a whale; and we, therefore, cannot even compare this propaganda with that of the Universal Negro Improvement Association headed by Mr. Gar- AUSTIN D.

His leadership has been proved to be an ultimate failure.

With such a part and so glorious a beast, is it any wonder that the white race tremble at the potential power of a society which is endeavoring to uplift a fallen race and place it in the vanguard of civilization? Is it any wonder that Europeans and Americans have been so divided in their civilization to a people whose descendants they despise and subject to every humiliation and disgrace? When, therefore, white historians and authors who have not had the benefit of actual experience and personal observation, attempt to refute the evidence and statements of those who have had both experience and observation they only display their prejudices and unworthiness to the men of the times and neither their genius nor industry can cause the earnest and diligent seeker who reads between the lines from finding out the truth. JAMES A. NEALLY. FOUR "IMMORALITIES" OF THE CHURCH Because it is exclusive, respectable, free and militant, the Church of today is guilty of "our immoralities," according to Dr. Frank Crane, whose twenty-seven years in the ministry add weight to his criticisms. These "immoralities" he considers worse than murders because they are radical departures from the teachings of Christ. We must admit that there is more than a斗 of truth in all that Dr. Crane says. "The Church is exclusive," writes Dr. Crane, "in that it recognizes a non-membership." It acknowledges that there are heretics who commit acts of body and communion, "which is immoral," because the "distinguishing characteristic of Christianity is that it is the first great non-athletic religion. The essence of Jesus's program is that it is inclusive, "so that when we make it exclusive, we make the church today, agree the popular writer of newspaper homilies, are organizations. "And as far as their form is concerned, they are in the same category as political parties, lodges, clubs, and orders. The common idea seems to be that Jesus organized a group, which he called a Church, very much as we organize a Rotary, club, and that his ambition was that this organization be built by building great structures and establishing schools, by getting hold of people influential in society and politics by amazing members, and by holding gigantic conventions, until at last everybody would join, and that would be the final triumph of Christianity. "But He not only had no such thing in mind, but such a thing is utterly heathenish, a stone blindness of His intentions, and directly opposite to His mind. "The idea was a gospel of contagious friendship, but it fell into a world obsessed with the triumphant fallacy of the Roman Empire, and sold its soul for a mass of organized pottery." In its "respectability" the Church is guilty of a second immorality, the error being that "ancient and common one of mistaking station in life for life itself." To belong to the Church, says the priest, you must give certain position; it can be given away getting on, toward acquiring a reputation, and when Church carries with it a certain social status, it "cones to be Christianity." If it sold its services instead of giving them away, the Church "would be on a sounder basis ethically" for "the way it fill the church to have it cost more than it would cost full as the motion picture theater" is not religion that the minister has either to sell or give away; service, with all his time and expert advice, is all that the preacher can offer. "The sooner every form of so-called uplift, charity, and benvolence is put upon a strict basis of commercialism, and only that is offered to the people for which the priest is supposed to evangelent, the sooner the colly, the worse the useless elements in it will be sequestered out." In making his charge of militancy Dr. Crane explains that "the Church aggressively proposes to do people good, to uplift them, convert them." He also says that the Church toward non-church people, we are told, "is that of one political party to another, of Greek Jo barbarian, of Jow to gentile, a hostility to be ended by conquest." "But it going book to the founder of our nation," he says, "hold no monasterial meetings. He never manifested that seal in proselytizing known as hunger for souls. Nor did He ever haughtily announce that unless a man joined His company and obeyed Him. He would be eternally never deliberately set out to reform by organized effort anybody or anything. "What is the matter with the Church? It simply is not happy enough. It is full of imposing ceremonies, thundering moralities, rigid decencies and politeness, venerable traditions, and infallible obedience of organization, every thing except the spirit of the common person, who comes from the Father to his garden of the world to plant in it the seed of love almost always." — Benedictus, September 19, 1891.

St. Sept. 31 Civil Washington is alive on the importance of the Conference on the Limitation of Armament' which is to meet at the national capital on Armament Day, November 13 next. A citizen's point of view has been pointed to arrange for the most comfort, safety and entertainment of Premier Lloyd George, Bonar Law, Secretary of the Enqueter; former Premier Arthur Balfour and Earl Curzon, Great Britain's probable Big Four; Premier Briand, wh- will head the Big Four of France; Premier Tittal, with the probable head the Big Four from Japan, and the other delegates to the conference. The Committee of One Hundred is composed of representatives of all elements of the population of Washington, including such men as Milton E. Allie, John E. Baldwin, National Bank, Miss Mabel T. Baldwin, former ministers of the District of Columbia; John Joy Eden, "Washington's Grand Old Man"; John Hays Hammond, of international fame; Cuno H. Rudolph, James F. Oyster and Col. Charles W. Hammond; and the president of Columbia; the president of each of the important financial institutions of the District of Columbia; E. B. MoLean, publisher of the Washington Port; Theodore W. Noyes, publisher of the Evening Star, and a group of ladies representing the community, together with representatives of labor and other groups. Colored People Represented A number of colored people are included as members of the Committee of One Hundred. Among them are Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University; Dr. D. E. Wisman, pastor of the Lutheran Church; W. L. Houston, Esq., member of the Board of Education of the District of Columbia; Professor George W. Cook, dean of the School of Commerce; Professor John Johnson, Esq.; Dr. W. A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief Freedman's Hospital and James A. Cobb, Esq., former United States Assistant District Attorney. It is expected that the Committee of One Hundred will not only meet and greet the delegates to the Conference on the Limitation of Armament, but it will also engage in Legion in connection with the reception and entertainment of Marshal Foch, the intercalled commander. The tentative plans of the Committee of One Hundred, which have to be approved by the State Department, call for the establishment of a committee on Reception, Legislation, Press, Public Order, Housing, Street Decorations, Illumination, Club Hospitality, Fardet, Carvival, Transportation, Music, Reviewing Standa Medals, and During the period of the Conference on the Limitation of Armament it is expected that the colored people through their representatives will have no inconsiderable part in connection therewith. The conference promises to be a great event of importance, and during the six month's period of its probable duration world history will be written. Introspection is the Reflection of What Has Been and is Going on With Us as a Race In the beginning the man was created in the likeness of our Creator and he was not satisfied to live contained in the Garden of Eden as a law-binding resident, but he had to break the faith and sin. Down through all generations, through the rise and fall of each and every nation of people, down through the advancement of civilization, we all of us, have been disobeying not only our laws and regulations of our country, but we have been disobeying God. The Jews, God's chosen people, disobeyed the laws; the Romans, the Greeks the English, the Spanish the Germans, all have been law breakers and have fallen from the highest point of the earth. We have a depth of remorse. Yes, if you please, America is now rocking and staggering from just such disobedience to God and to its people. She, America, is following in the footsteps of Rome who could govern the world but failed to do so. America is the place of all. The heart of every action, thought and deed Home was. Now America has progressed from the landing of the pilgrims in the barren lands of Massachusetts and those at Jamestown to a rich, commercial and manmade city. Yes, she has gone so far as to make a governing nature whereby any person with one drop of African blood in that But, my dear friends, all the three great powers of the world were founded by these people in our own Africa. They gave to the world, an civilization, an art, the leading of all sciences, Arabian geometry, embalming, astronomy, Arabic numbers, the first paper of paper, powder, ivory, leadership and agriculture. These were chiefly from Africa the black continent. The same rule of people gave us the knowledge of making steam do work, which resulted in the engine. I can safely say that the white American has never found that in use a million new that was not in use a million more. Passing generation has given the latest and most popular written music to not only the Americans, but to the world. The words written in the greatest of all histories and books are about to be fulfilled. Remember "there were to be wars and rumors of war," and he was to stretch forth his hands and hand to turn to its home. Well listen! The leaders have come to us in every walk of progress trying to get us to develop race pride, co-operation, and asking us to prepare for this crisis. The Civil War freed the black man of progress trying to get us to solve the Negro problem. Negro is a different legal status, but it did not give him an economical position that satisfied him. He does not care for the social equality because he has so many to associate with and black to the milk industry, fighting his way up ever since; sometimes with the help and sometimes against the opposition of the white man. It is fair to say that he is nearer real equality with the white man than to ever was before, but he has to ever be himself to go and he would be a bold predictor his further advance will affect the nation, or how far racial differences can come to be forgotten in the sense of common citizenship. This was a clipping from the book with the Companion in the January number. The United States has always been in two columns; it continues to say. One started by the book *Booker T. Washington* and now led by Mr. Moton alms at admitting the Negro economically and at raising his self-esteem in the United States, and giving him a more competent and useful man. The other, led by Dr. DuBois alms at immediate, complete political enfranchisement as the indispensable foundation of the Negro's improvement as a citizen. Both have thought of the Negro as a man, simply and have considered only the policy of adjusting him to his environment here in the United States. Now another leader has arisen, one Marcia Garvey, a Negro from Jamaica, who has seen much of the world and has got the sort of all-round education she has received. She sets, continues the editorial. He is different amelioration for the Negro, an ambition that treats him not as an American but as an African, a member of the black race. He is the organizer of the Negro improvement Association and he is a Negro everywhere from every sort of social disqualification. He plans to establish a central government that shall guide the companies of the black race wherever they are established, he says, and he directs the Catholic Church direct their million dollars to raise money to finance a company such as the steamship company. The Black Star Line is to bind together the Negro peoples in America and West India, Africa, and his thought of the intellectual and political free independence of people plea in their homeland in Africa. That means (we) the American Negro is not wanted here for anything or use to bear the brunt of the white man's trouble. For here, you can leave a watchdog, everything dear to you can be left unattended, seven or more buildings and a good watch dog in the yard. Because no one with good common sense will try to enter the yard knowing the dogs are on guard. Here we are good fighters, we would battle with our Uncle Stan, but they feared the black fighters. These men were the first to frighten After looking at the situation you're writing it's a thorough investigation—as a list of items to the construction there to quite of the attitude of the white race which is supposed to be our worst enemy, that the trouble is not with the whites, the so-called enemy, but with the Magryes themselves. To challenge with the interest which they have for their own people is much greater than that which the whites have for them, or they for the whims. When it comes to loyalty, grids, or a desire to keep each other from getting along, the Magryes need to suppose Why is it that in this community said others the Magre is suffering so much from unemployment? Why is it that in a city the New York, for instance where there are supposed to be Hying within its borders 150,000 colored people, and that if this city's most prosperous times there are hardly five-to-proud business men of five Negro business concerns who are able to finish employment to members of their race? If a member of his race goes into business he has no one to depend on for patronage but Negroes. The white people won't buy anything from a Negro. They would rather give him money for nothing than to list him for work. They would think things. At the same time they (the white people) go to large numbers into the colored neighborhoods selling whatever they may have. Now you would think the Negro would buy from his own kind as the whites do from theirs. But no. Those Negroes would go to a thousand miles to buy whatever they would desire near door. Again, in invariably a colored peddler could try all he wanted to sell anything that he might have in a colored neighborhood; but a white peddler, selling the same thing, would have no trouble whatever disposing of them. The colored business man on the other hand do not seem to know how to charge from five to fifty per cent; more for whatever they sell than the white business men do, even when these goods did not cost them any more. When being employed in white-flesh fitness place when the Negro comes in contact with others of his race each becomes each other's word enemy. They carry so much news about each other they get the employees disgusted. Those who are employed by colored business houses hate like anything to do with a Negro. Again, these two are in Humphreys LADIES—LADIES— REMOVAL NOTICE I take this opportunity of informing my many friends and well-wishers that on and after the eighth of August, 1921.

Despite the wave of depression that has passed over the country, present indications are that the impetus given to student enrollments in educational institutions in the United States following the war will not be checked. Like the other colleges and universities throughout the country, the Howard University, with its modernly equipped plant and its various academic schools with courses in liberal arts, education, commerce and finance; its School of Applied Science, with courses in advanced engineering and architecture; agriculture and home economics; its School of Medicine, with courses in medicine; and its School of Law is preparing to receive its new contingent of students. During the summer vacation extensive repairs and improvements have been made to the grounds and buildings, including the installation of new lighting and improvements in the rooms, drinking fountains in the various buildings and other changes, tending to add to the comfort of the students and to the co-ventilations of the rooms. The number of important additions have been to the faculty which now number 188. Last year the - t-tal enrollment at the Howard University in all departments was 1.910 students. This year, at the Howard University quarter, the number September 28, 1925, it is expected will be extended to an even larger number. and these are good and easy to maintain. Since Benjamin, they may be brought from 630 to 640 years ago, they are almost among the hands and will go on any distance out of India with the help of Poor, a modestly practiced missionary, to be the patientist. If they have got to help anybody, they will allow them to see what soils they need, then to help the needy. Whenever they have an aid scheme of their own size it is easy for us to "they" the school business, men or ministers and both the government and it is not so. He is inimitable for a big bank assistant, for his job aptitude, to associate with, by the same rules, but for the education of the active and for the freedom of Africa. The same holds good to reference to many of the most mankindly are running Mr. Garvey. In the recent Civil Service Examination September 15, 1831, the Garvey (the played a wonderful sense of gold business management). The Civil Service staff will not cost the association anything, because the money that will be sent to on the account of that staff (not to say anything about the membership which will be prominent and the communist, with all honesty, which it will admit) will more than pay for their maintenance. On account of not having a system, the behalf this organization has lost much in both membership and money. Many are hoping that the time will come when the President of the organization will get dressed men to the already graduated, dharmas, to be taught a syrup, unit, and seed, then to the unculivated territories, there to "World" new branches. When this shall have been done, together with what is being done, we can easily say that our organization will be a New African Republic shall be formed will talk. MADAME F.

It is a feeling of high appreciation towards your great ability in doing things.

But now we can say we are again a free set of people to spread the good tidings of an expected redeemed Africa. Never could an appointment be made better to meet the requirements of the people in Cuba than yours. We can say with safety that you are the right man if the right place. Sir, may God always aid you to keep constant in the faith and spirit that you have so successfully established among all your humble people from time to time in Cuba. Go forward in love with regards to this association, and to ever maintain the motto of believing in "One God, One Aim and One Destination" in the various divisions of this country in the great convention, the work you have done here is crowned with success.

He also told us what weave you do in press, forward, and many other good things, saying that he had not begin to tell all the great things which were accomplished, saying that the challenge has not yet been told. Everybody who has set within the sound of New York's Brown voice had their hearts filled with joy and we were the feeling in the depths of their hearts and saying surely there must be a God in our mind; we fully realize that god is the Great Blesses upon Heaven and earth and all therein. The speaker also told us that he saw great things to tell us about, but he was not able to express himself as he desired and asked the help of God to enable him to tell us wondertalk things, and everybody was uplifted and saw brightness for the future. The speaker also said, "Stick together, love one another and do what you can for your movement." Rev.

Day as many ward herewith an interesting and impressive company took place at Cilindra Gold Corp. on Wednesday, August 8 when the Commissioners of the Eastern Province, Colonial Harding, C. M. G., D. C. G., invested the Fis. of Awamaga with the King's Medal for Church. His Majesty the King, through His Excellency the Governor, had expressed a wish that this investment should take the form of a public ceremony, and all the Qu. District was en forte for "a cocalation. A general holiday was declared. Invitations were sent to all the surrounding towns and villages, and there was a durbar of the many chiefs of the district. From Monday until the morning of the function there was a constant inflow of gaily attired people. Three native rulers included Chief Agbono, Chief James Occlo, Chief Tamaklo, Chief Benyo, Chief Godbadam, and several other representative rulers of outlying towns. Their many state umbrellas formed a distinctive and attractive feature of the throngs, as they poured toward the centre of interest. The morning of August 3 broke brinkly fine. By the early hour of seven, the Lagos and Hausa villages of Quiltah who also joined with the local lakes in paying tribute to the Fits were parading the town, *d* by their tombstone harps and horns. The three mission schools were also in procession, predeed by the banners, and all of the scholars in perfect holiday mood. The capital brass band, which is a france of the former) Bremen Mission Lahug, discourses martial militia and the pilots were an attractive arm of bright scarlet and white By 2923 he was had been muzzled in the office before the Court-house. The chin's then began to arrive, each one under his state umbrella, and attended by his retinue of brilliantly attired courtiers. The Pin was then installed in the centre of the throng, wearing a crown of purple and gold, and a brilliant robe of yellow silk. He also wore the medal and sword presented to him last year for meritorious services rendered in the compass-of-Tongland. All the time motors had been pouring in from Lome, bringing over the border from the mandatory territory of France, the many European and natives invited to the ceremony. A large crowd of both white and coated guests were now seizing the Fla, and prompt to time the Honorable Colonel Harding arrived in his motor from Elder Demi, a dungalo, toward ten miles of the coast. He inspected the guard, under the able command of Captain Cope, R. M. A. the present Intairt Commissioner. The man European visitors were then presented to him, and the Colonel corral was before he proceeded with the ceremony. The scene was now one of great brilliance, the bright robes of the chiefta, the uniforms of the ban, it pretty dressed school children, the glowing colors of the state umbrella, the white note struck by the European community the intense greenness of the triops, the gold and yellow of the sunshine, and the gay decorationa of bunting and fringe that fluttered in the wind. The robes of the cannon have been reverberating from the cannon ever since the crowds assembled, and there was everywhere a tense air of expectation and pleasure. Colonel Harding then turned to the gathering. In a spirited address he referred to his twenty-five year close fellowship with the Negro race of Africa, both south, east and west. He debated that this occasion was one of the greatest events in his life he had grown affectionately to recognize the sterling worth of the Fla of Alumunage. He (the Fla) was a man of sound character, one of nature's gnithamen, and he was proud to have been deputed by His Excellency the Governor to perform the present carving, the sculpture, the sign, and the first time that a public function had been made of the investiture of the King's Medal. In placing the silver chain around the neck of the Fia. Colon Harding expressed his confidence in his loyalty to the Crown, and complimented him on the popularity which was proven among the guests who had gathered to witness his success. Turning to the assembled crowds around the state umbrella, he biped that all the chicks there gathered would continue to show allegiance, and would be guided by the Fia's sound. In a brief but convincing reply, the Jim then thanked the Quentin. A touching note was struck when he said how ardently the Awkward had hoped to regain their foot problems over the burden. That Lome had been given to such a person as the Lord, and he had hurt them in their desire. But as Lome was being worked on a mammary tumor, they still shrieked the hope that one day the people of this district of the Cold Coast might re-enforce their competence to Toowoomba. "As a matter of fact," of Toulouse with that estimating hope, and their present disimpartment was proportionately busy. The white consume then admirably the wine, and the wine the Atlanta. Here the Clerk recorded sales companies of his friends both white and colored. A reception and lunch were arranged for 1 p. m. at Elder Dempster's bungalow, mainly for the comfort of the many visitors from Loma who had traveled to Toulouse, and would be returning to the French capital before nightfall. It was an exceedingly gratifying item of the day that the French administrator of Loma M. Douchier, had come through Quitman. He shared the hardship of Harding, and (when toasts were the fashion) made feeling of the increased support between Britain and France. Mr. C. D. Trotter, who had come through from He, the British mandatory zone of Toulouse, and is an commissioner of Quitman, was among the guests at his long familiarity with the Pls and the people of the district. In the afternoon from 8 p. m. to 8 p. m. there were sports for the school children in the market place. Prites were distributed by the Colonial toward and around the kitchen. At night Colonel Harding reconnected the FKA's lunch by giving a banquet. A large party, both of Europeans and natives, attended, and the occasion was one of unleashed laughter. The brass band, R. C. Mission pronounced grace, and in the open compound throughout the meal the brass and wood and percussion of the Brumen Mission Band discured music that ranged from the Gold Colok native melodies to the dance successes of the homeland. The toast list was short, as there was to be a ball and smoking concert after the dinner. In proposing the health of the Fla Colonial Harding Mission, he emphasized the tenances of his twenty-five year work among the colored races. He urged on the leaders of the various Missiones to teach the children to use both hands and head. He deplored that as a young man he had not been taught to brush his teeth or bricklaying. Then he might have earned his first or first a day, instead of having only achieved moderate distinction in the service of his country. This perseverance half serious half withdrawn much as possible. He was a man of the highest职位 of Chief Agbono, the Fla repaired his certificate to His Excellency the Governor, and His Graduates Majesty the King for the honor conferred upon him. He pledged the rising generation of the district to patriotism and obedience. Mr. D. M. Stewart then proposed the European officials and European community geno jelly and we were delighted which he had so long marked the FIA's association with government and commercial people. Captain Cope replied for the Messrs. John Holt & Co. Ltd., responded for the commercial world. Mr. J. M. Stuart-Young then proposed the health of the distinguished host. From his address one or two phrases stand out from his address to Colonel. After reflecting on all that their host had related of his early struggles in South Africa, and the abortive efforts of Bolshiev to obtain the upper hand in Europe, the speaker enumerated the truth that nature demands an artificially created body of States. While heartily commending the Colonel's advice to the Fla and endorsing his wish that the younger generation should all be taught trades, as well as more 'book knowledge', he said that character was the keystones of all life. The true leader required a bone, a bone, a bone, beyond the curious manners of a gentleman, and no crown beyond a clear intellect. The African community was then proposed by Mr. C. D. Trotten, and was responded to by the Rev. *Taylor of the Eton Mission*. This closed a pivotal review and a new account, the adjourned in motor cars to the Courthouse, where the band was already installed and a great number of guests prepared for the ball. Dancing commenced about 11 p.m. and continued until 8 a.m. on Thursday. There were several musical intervals. Miss Gloria Sibrawu, the soprano, sang the beautiful contralto voice, sang the "Roary and" a Little Kite, a Little Kite. Mr. Robinson who has had a fair amount of actual stage experience, sang "Therea" a Little Kite of Devil in Every Little Girl" and the accompaniments were played by Captain Clemens.

On Wednesday, August 11, this division celebrated the universal Negro holiday. As an early hour members and friends were to be seen winding their way to Liberty Hall where a variety of sports were held by the entertainment committee, a Maypole picnic and dance also a way-of-way by the Legions. The Black Cross Nurses took part in a ladies' golf-off, ice cream and fancy cakes and other entertainment. The fools but a most captivable and merry time, all fully convinced that the Negro has made himself nearly free. The weather was all that could be desired, the whole affair was a grand success. Although financial depression prevailed the picnic was held up to 19 p.m. dancing and amusement were going when the band played the Ethiopian Anthum, all coming to a standstill with a heartful of satisfaction only too sorry to leave the ground. Members and friends everywhere fell in love with the fire. The turn-of-war by the legions captured by B. A. Charles shows to the folks what the legions can and will do. It was a lively loke on both occasions when the men carried the rope over the line and the lieutenant's body and friends feeling perfectly satisfied. Soon after the Black Cross Nurses with the leader, Theodora Thomas, added to the amusement by showing what strength the ladies possessed. Credit must be given to those who took part. It was one of the most spectacular the eyes have ever seen. Concert Liberty Hall, Guantanamo, Monday night, September 7, was packed to the very doors, with everyone inside to hear all that would be said. The meeting in Liberty Hall that night was one of our annual • concert and entertainment Committee. D. Frederick chairman, and others, with a band of music eclipsed all previous performances by that group of musicians. The variety of the concert and the excellence of the performances was the most impressive concerts ever given in Guantanamo. Every move indicated grace and self-passion, and the smile and gracious personality of the performers added a note of refinement to the occasion. The excellent performance of Dr. Tuwat Almohan, the director of Party, to a sick man was enjoyed by all. The performance of L. Wyatt and Messia Steadman and Comings had a finished touch and called for repetition. They portrayed the soil life of the Guantanamo people.

The Negro World Dear Editors, Please allow the space in your valuable columns, to Penly to an article that appeared in the *Buffalo American Week* less, criticizing the U. N. L. A. and A. G. L. Buffalo Local N. 75, the mailing that was held on the 9th last. This particular gentleman predeceased in the age of 65, and the number of the said organization, which by all indications, uses us to believe that he is. I will ask her that is as guilty as the man that lives with his wife and then goes out and criticizes and exposes her weakness to the public. Aarp person that is a member of the U. N. L. A. is it dangerous to be in an organization with a man like that. I think that would be safe in branding him as a institution. This particular gilmanian anilinepathy was somewhat limited when the master said that the majority of our post mortem have been, both, alcoholism, as to which the statement is absolutely correct. These facts. I am at all, to be understand why this particular gilmanian anilinepathy was so borne upon leadership. It is not often that I allow myself to reply, by such full, gilmanian, but cannot retain from warring the mind to be a success of wives training, along in sheep's attire. It is reminiscent to me to be a traitor, in any kind of an organization. We have quite a few such distinguished gentlemen affiliated with the N. M. L. A. and d. G. L. with a premeditated contemplation of argumentation. There is one thing that the distinguished criticise failed to take into account. With a little bit of humor, Newman will all in love, and tranquility hope that God will gale the Hon. Marus Gavryan, on behalf, success shall crown his sultant. I wish, proud for the cause. CLAIMANTS IN BROWN Member of the U. N. L. and A. C. L. Duffa (N. Y.) Local Division No. 7. THE NEW NEGROES IN TORONTO, CANADA I desire to say, as Richard Wright, a little boy of Augusta, he said to Gen. O. C. Howard of Freemantle Bureau on visiting one of the colored schools in Georgia: "Tell the people of the North brought forth this answer may well be asked of the Negroes of the Toronto division. I am not certain, however, that our people could make the same worthy reply as young Wright made. 'What message shall it take to the people of the North?' The reply of young Wright was no doubt excellent. We here in Toronto have had the same question put to us by Master Druske, years the greatest young Nero entree in the world today. Toronto is proud of this young Garveyite, who, when called on, is always ready to give his hearers something that Garvey calls him. Garvey Davis received the following entitled 'Future Condition': Mr. Frank, Leighton our local Charle- Chaplin, was again on the scene and kept the audience running with laughter. Amnesia clapped, and the glove served service. At the opening address, which was translated and given in Spanish by Brother Philip Cohen, Sage Bainan, a Cuban, also delivered an amphibian address. At song by the chair, "Laugh and Grow Fart," a solo by Mr. Adams, entitled "Advice," with a folk melody, with Will Win Bur, My Flower," were and received. During the singing of the lef- ter song, a basket of flowers was sold by Mrs Irno Warmington, one of the Black Cross Nurses. It would be better for me to have been born dead Than to be alive. Mr. Alexeys spoke in relation to the span of time which was very interesting. He retreated to the email bean when he was asked to come when placed on top of the big one, after making up is supposed to go to the bottom. Master Ernest Fox gave a recitation, which for a while had things looking quite serious, showing that if we are New Negroes we are imposed to make up and do or die. For them we have to do. We have to do to the Red, the White and the Green and support the Hon. Marion Garvey. Reading by Miss Realline Jacobson "The Lord Is My Shepherd. I Shall Not Want" which was very encouraging for a young girl. Mr. Alexeyk rounded a book asked at the Mr. El Georges readied a zambophone song which was beautiful nature. Mr. Worcester readied a bean accompaniment song was enclosed. The U. N. L.

A. does. Mr. Ellis gave a wonderful reading and Mr. Robinson rendered a plecic soo. Mr. Ellis spoke of his objective—to put Toronto division over the top while Sir John Carter, in a video like that of Patrik Henry, denounced the injustice of England in taking America against N.Y.C. and the N.Y.C. of Greece against Philippe cunning designs to plunder Greece. Mr. Carter, who is full of life, kept his heart well-bound for some time. The meeting came to a close, as 6 p.m. with Lady Foxy in the chair. On leaving all expressed themselves as representatives of the Redemption of Africa, the Sultan of the Negro race would be persuaded shortly.

For example: a man was preaching once and making a big noise—a great, big noise. The members of his stock were singing and praying and shooting and having a great evening until 3 in the morning. A good white preacher, coming along the dark day and hearing of it said to the followed preacher: "What was all that noise you and your church people had not sight? Don't you know, brother, that in the building of Solomon's Temple that did not hear the sound of a bow or the swing of a hammer; that they put up that magnificent temple without any noise whatever?" "Yes, the colored preacher replied, that is the same thing as the simple preacher; we were just blasting out the sound" (Laughter). And so my friend, there is a great difference in building this temple and in blasting out for the foundation. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has blasted out the foundation; it has made a great stir throughout the world, and we have said on many things to the world, and given the world to understand that we were powerful here and there and everywhere, and that we were so interested in the preacher that we were going to take care of the situation if we just got a chance, and if we didn't get a chance we would take a chance, anyhow—we were done so much of that now that we must go on and forward; we cannot stop; we simply must go forward and put the program over. *Introductions on "Africa for the Africans"* A proposal to speak to you tonight for few moments on the subject, "Africa and the Africans". It is a well known today. When it was first started by the Excellency, Marcus Garvey, through the Universal Negro Improvement Association, nearly everybody learned Afrika, lingered it to scorn; even some of the Africans themselves commanded and said it cannot be done, and all the Negroes in this country and other sections of the world made them of the ideas, and some of us who put on the button of the Red, the Black and the Green, representing "Africa for the Africans" and a free and open Africa; Africa for the race race everywhere; were a little ashamed of the button, on the underside of the leg of their coat because they did not want to be identified with the government publicity, didn't want to take what benefit it will be to the black man in this Western Hemisphere. I joined the fray, and berain present my views. I was the first to speak. "We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are endeavoring to unite the Negro race, especially of the African people, in their attention on Liberia and their continent of Africa. I quote from the pen of Arthur Barclay, president of Liberia from the year 1870, that it is to be made up of the Negro civilized to some extent in the United States and West India, and regenerated and of the old African origin. It is to be made up of a small number of civilized and a large number of aboriginal communite in varying degrees of dependence. The problem is how to bind the national organism and an organic unity. In Liberian success there lies African redemption, redemption not only in the religious sense, but redemption economic, social, governmental. Prof. E. Starr, of Chicago, a white man, and his book on Liberalism in the black man, and along in Liberia, has been stand-alone in Africa, and is able to organize and maintain a government on the West Coast, be can do the same on the East Coast, and in the southern part of Africa. Africa is restless under the white man. It makes no differences over the cultures of Pomezia, French, German, Spanish, or Belgian, or English the native is dissatisfied under the present regime. It is recognized that a spark may cause a conflagration through Negro Africa. On the other hand, the colonial burden of the European governments grows heavy; the trade advances to hold on, might be being in which the expense and trouble of administration. It is mutual jealousy, not great success, which holds the European powers in Africa. We each convinced that withdrawal would not give advantage to other powers, that abdication would not be recognized, weaknesses that the trade with black weight not result in individual advantage, they would be quite ready to withdraw from the Continent of Africa. But we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we of African descent throughout the world, and of different nations, will refuse to withdraw on account of jealousy of one toward the other, whether they remain because of the trade advantages, or because of commercial graft and wealth that they get through being there, whether they desire to remain in order to make slaves out of Negroes, or regardless of what they intend to remain for—the Negro himself, with the stigma of "Africa for the African!" will say to the other nations of the world who are there: "You can remain if you like, but Africa shall be in the control of Africana." (Applause.) From the same article let me read: "I Liberia proper it will stand as an example of what black populations of the Comoros are advancing for all. The sight of enterprises of Nigroes, originating with the Suriname, including the native, give heart and stimulus to Nigroes everywhere. Wanermann, years ago, said this: "From this little state, the size of the Suriname, including the native, a fifth part of our country, will go forth militarily, the best imaginable, to expel Nigroes, including the native, and to found a free United States of Africa, sufficiently powerful to make high regiment, with men, and to make high regiment, as the as it can reign among men." The Hon. Marais Garvey, founder of the Association, has been辛辣 sharpened in saying he advocates the return of every Nigroe to Africa. "No! he says the Nigroes must be respected." I will not read further, but will simply leave with you, the words of the writer of this article to think about Is Written in the Havens That Africa Shall Be Gone The plan as to how the slogan "Africa for the Afrians!" can be carried into reality and the aims and objects of our association accomplished, have been propounded *you from day to day, and we are here tonight to get a little more serious upon this great problem, because we are living in a time that demands careful, thoughtful action from day to day. Let us remember first it in written in the heavens and engraved upon the stars that we shall have a continent and a mighty government of our own. I want a country where my own flag, which is Black and the Green, shall wave; I want a country where my own kingdom shall never be; I want a country where lynching is not known; I want a country where black men and black women can reign king and queen; I want a country of my own—the God-blessed land of Africa' (great saintlans) The Civil Service At the conclusion of the musical program, following the religious opening of the meeting, Mr. Zarvey, who presided, referred to the civil service examinations held by the U. K. L. A. for applicants to enter the service. These examinations, he said, would be resumed on Thursday of this week, September 28, at 18 o'clock, and those who had passed the examinations already held and who have passed notice, of having been录取, are to report tomorrow morning, at the office of the association headquarters at 56-58 West 131th street, there to begin that probationary period of service preparation to being sent out into the field. U. N. J. A. Hesh Branley Continuing, the President, General said that owing to the heavy response of the duties of his office at this time, he expected to remain in New York for the next two months, but would be unable during that time to appear in Liberty Hall staging on Sundays. Much of his work will be in the selecting and blasting of new indus- try, and in the designing of the work for the world. We have to distribute and aid workers, he said, and they must be distributed all over the world. We also have to distribute the civil serv- ment men, women as executive co- ordisers. We have to branch the organization, all of them, in embank- ment and chartered, and others, not chartered, and we have to end an ex- spective secretary to each and every- one of them. The secretary will be appointed to deliver news as the time comes. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1921 SECCIÓN EN ESPANOL Por EL PROP. M. A.

Su lema tiene por base el progreso general de la raza en el Universo entero. Es una gran oportunidad que nos ofrece dicha sociedad para avanar un paso más en el camino de nuestra aspiraciones.

Luchemos sin cesar para colocar a nuestra generación futura en el camino de la lizz. DESENVOLVIMIENTO Y PROGRESO COMERCIAL: LA BLACK STAR LINE, la única compaia de vapores presidida y dirijada por hombres de nuestra raza; es el paladán que ha de contribuir a nuestro desenvolvimiento y progreso comercial. Su propósito es el de establecer la relación comercial entre los pueblos de la raza en los distintos puntos del globo. Es la única linea de vapores que nos proporciona y nos proporcionara comodidad adecuada, olvidándonos por completo de la predisposición que pueda existir en qualquier otra compaia de su clase. Como ha dicho muy bien su presidente, el Moses de la Raza, Honorable Marcus Garvey, nos proponemos preservas los derechos de esta noble raza y respetar los derechos de la humanidad, creyendo siempre en la hermandad del hombre y en la paternidad de Dios. Pero, LA BLACK STAR LINE necesita de nuestra cooperación, con el objeto de aumentar el número de vapores existentes para poder de esta modo extender nuestro comercio, según su propósito. ¿Cómo podríamos cooperar con esta nueva linea de vapores de nuestra raza? Con nuestra ayuda financiera. Comprando una o más acciones de a cinco pesos cada una, do modo que, nuestro dinero as invertido, pueda comprar mayor número de barcos que, bajo el estandarte de la BLACK STAR LINE, puedan ponerse en contacto y ligarse mas facilmente las relaciones comerciales y fraternales de nuestra raza en ambos emisferios. to disappoint those branches. Moreover, the organization is much larger today than it was when it began, four years ago. Then I had but the New York local to look after; now there are 500 divisions to attend to, which entails a greater amount of work on the executive line than on the executive line and in proper working order requires a great deal of concentration of effort. It is that I am endeavoring to do at this time before I leave New York again. "Moreover, we must realize and take into account the present economic situation that we are all facing as a people. We have to arrange to help afford some relief to our people in this direction through the proper massing of forces and funds of the organization. The crisis of unemployment among our people is serious and acute and we cannot afford to be slack at this time. We must have man who are able to cope with these situations as they arise, and at this time we need the ablest man of the greatest intelligence to guide the destiny of a movement like the Universal Negro Improvement Association begins we are grappling with world problems, with international questions, and with all that we are afford to allow those who are not yet trained intellectually and otherwise to temper with the destiny of a movement so momentous as the Universal Negro Improvement Association." 1921-1922 Will Be Banner Year of Association The President General let it be understood that the association is not begging people to do anything; that it has not reached the point that those engaged in its service must either "deliver the goods or get out." The association has no time to waste with trifers or incompetence, or those who attempt to shirk their work or the duties of their position or office. He expects that the work of the association will be so conducted this year in all the various divisions that when the convention meets in 1922 there will be a much better report to submit from the divisions than this year. Of the 450 charlisted divisions only a few reports are made to a convention that closed because of the lack of staff, self, or stockiness of method in the office, the former Secretary General. Some colored people do their best when working for white people, he declared, but when working for their own people they have no sense of obligation, moral or otherwise, whatever. "But," he continued, "I think we will all find out that it comes to giving service to Negroes we have to be even more careful than when giving service to the white man, because we are not in a good to be framed with at this time, and I can assure you that, based on our present plans, the results of the work of the Universal Negro Improvement. Association for the next week will surprise the most optimistic of the because everything means bright, everything seems favorable and promising." CORNS REMOVING DR. J. P.

Here Mr. Garvey said that some members of the association have been disappointed because of not being able to see him at the office of the headquarters. This he regretted, for, with the vast amount of work he has to do as the executive head of the association who calls; if he did, he would not be able to accomplish any work at all. He would like to see and speak to everyone who calls and who desires to speak to him, and so burdensome has the work become that oftentimes he goes home completely out for the day. But he loves the work, because it is for the good of the race and he therefore puts his whole heart and soul into it. Some people, he remarked, work in an organisation or in a cause that they can get out of but they have no way of doing it, very high. The work of the U. N. L. A. he said, is a work that, for its proper success, requires love, and the putting of core whole soul and heart into it, together with the strength of his intellect and whatever training and education he may possess.
