CONSTRUCTIVE
Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting:
The hour for constructive thinking and action has arrived. We have labored in the wilderness of agitation, petitions and profitless noise for many decades and have achieved nothing.
The various organizations we have formed within the last fifty years have done nothing more than to hold mass meetings, asked for and received interviews and sent up petitions, all without any real beneficial results. The Universal Negro Improvement Association being tired of the methods of the past is determined to initiate a new program, that of constructive accomplishment.
Some people ask, "Why hasn't the Universal Negro Improvement Association protested against so and so, and why hasn't it sent a telegram to the President denouncing lynching; why hasn't it asked for interviews from Congressmen and Senators over the question of injustice to the Negro?" Why should you want it to do this when other organizations have been doing this for the last twenty years without any result?
The time has come for us as a people to stop skylarking with ourselves and allowing others to make mimics of us. Little groups of individuals fighting against themselves can represent only themselves, they can accomplish very little in the interest of a great race scattered over the country, and for that matter scattered over the universe. If conditions are such as to affect the race generally, then that race must organize generally to bring about a change in the condition. It is no use ten, one hundred or one thousand out of a group of fifteen or two hundred or four hundred millions getting together and saying, "We alone can do this thing, therefore, we will ask interviews of Congressmen and Senators, telegraph the President, and by so doing, bring about a cessation of the injuries done to the race as a whole."
The Universal Negro Improvement Association has a wiser plan. Our purpose is to have the race solidly organized, to have Negroes in the North, the South, the East and the West, not only of America, but of the entire universe, linked up with one determination, that of liberating themselves and freeing the great country of Africa that is ours by right. When we make a demand we do not expect it to be refused, because our determination will be backed up by the financial, educational, industrial and physical strength of the entire race. This is our answer to those who are asking us why we do not send up petitions and hold mass meetings and send telegrams to the President. We have no time to waste.
Some Negroes who claim to be leaders do more harm to the race by their continuous meddling and mixing up of things than otherwise. Let us take the Ku Klux Klan expose for an argument. For years the Negro has been outraged by the Ku Klux Klan. Nobody said anything about it; nobody raised a voice of protest sufficiently strong as to have caused the nation to make a stir in putting down this national menace. And why? Simply because only the Negro was affected by it. The Klan was ostensibly organized to put down "imaginary Negro domination." If
believe that they should become the dominators of this country and the equal of the white man?
The very argument that Simmons will put up is the argument that will appeal to 60 per cent. of the white people of this country to let the Ku Klux Klan continue its operation so long as it cuts out its anti-Jew, Irish, Catholic and white alliance program.
Who would have been the cause of the continuous existence of the Klan but those Negroes who bob in without any influence and give everybody to understand that the Negro is against the Ku Klux Klan. Nobody cares whether the Ku Klux Klan kills Negroes or not, and if it is for Negroes along the Ku Klux Klan would become as powerful as the Government itself.
Our leaders do not know when to interfere and when not to interfere; they muddle up everything and some do it simply because they want notoriety; they want everybody to read in the press that Mr. So and So called on the President, and Mr. So and So was in Congress and interviewed certain Congressman. For the sake of this notoriety the whole race must suffer.
This is the kind of leadership we have had for the last fifty years. We want strong-minded statesmen, men who will not jeopardize the interest of the race by their own selfish whim and caprices, but who will study the situation so closely as to move only when it is to the better interest of the entire race. Negroes, keep quiet and let those who have the power, who are equally prejudiced against you, crush the Klan for their own purpose. We will benefit thereby.
You will not expect the Universal Negro Improvement Association to mix up in everything simply because it may be popular to hold mass meetings and send patitions. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is biding its time, when it can render useful service to the entire race. We want, therefore, a strong organization, we want the fifteen million Negroes of the United States, each and every one to become members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We want this four hundred million Negroes of the world to be active members of this great organization, and by the unity of our strength financially, educationally, industrially and physically, we will compel the recognition of the world. Therefore, let us concentrate on organization; organization is the power that moves the world; without organization we will become like a drifting vessel tossing about on the turbulent waves in the raging storm.
As a people we must unite everywhere; we must forget the narrowness of nationality and inanlarity. We must remember that we are oppressed because of our economic and political undevelopment in race. We will never be respected and given our rights until we rise above the universal stagnation in race. We have to start out now building ourselves into communities of progressive men and women, and ultimately launch out to the bigger ideas of empire.
Garibaldi, Mirabeau, Pitt, Gladatone, Blismafuk and Washington. Every race and every nation at some time or the other presents a statesman who ultimately becomes the leader of the race or the nation. How long must we wait for such statesman? How long must we wait for such leader? Have we one satisfied by the lessons of civilization? Have we not taken in the beautiful illustrations and examples of history? Then why wait for another decade? Why wait for another century to do what should be done now? Rise, men of the Negro race and let us have our Washington, let us have our Napoleon, let us have our Blismafuk, let us have our Garibaldi, let us have our Count Leon Tosfat and we can have these men now if we will but sink our individualism, if we will throw away our narrow nationalism and imperialism, if we will say, "Now is the time for us to get together and be one."
JOKE IN SOUTH AFRICA, WHERE THE NATIVE BLACKS FAR OUTNUMBER THE WHITES AND ARE RAPIDLY INCREASING AT AN ALARMING
LIBERTY HALL, New York, October 2, 1921.—Despite the sudden turning cool of the weather, a few oratorical fireworks were set off tonight before the customary Sunday night vast assemblage of people here by the Hom. Marcus Garvey, President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The first evidence of this was in the statement made by Mr. Garvey that the world is now taking the so-called Garvey movement seriously. This he followed up by reading extracts from writings of Americans, showing that it is the secret intention of the whites to destroy the natural existence of the four hundred million Negroes of the world. He showed, also, from quotations by Cancasian writers, whose books can be found in public and private libraries throughout this country, that an attempt is being made secretly by means of books to disseminate a propaganda of hate, antipathy and prejudice against the Negro, and to intensify this feeling wherever it already exists.
Moreover, it was pointed out by Mr. Garvey that the pretended friendship of France for the black man is sheer hypocrisy, and that the statement issued in the New York Times issue of today, with headlines to the effect that the Negro is a problem in South Africa, is not only too farcical to be taken seriously, but is a piece of impertinence coming from this Tory newspaper which upholds and believes in the doctrine of so-called "white supremacy" that is shocking, to say the least.
Continuing his quotations, Mr. Garvey read an extract from a writer in Cape Town, dated August 18, to the effect that in South Africa the whites are somewhat wrought up over the Marca Garvey movement. There the native blacks far outnumber the whites by five to one, and they are rapidly increasing at a rate that is alarming to the whites. In the continued increase and the great thereof the doctrines of the D, N, X, D, A, they fear turtles in their gardens, and they think anything in the nature of invading it. It is easily seen what a political, force they may become by exclusion, referring to the native African majority and rapid increase in numbers.
To combat all these forces, secret and open, that are at work against the Negro, is the purpose and plan of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. At present it is not ready to put its plans into actual operation nor will it be able to so do with the department, behind them, that they can be used against them for abstraction, marginalized liberty and their plaintiffs in the sun. With success continues their effort ultimately in this will come, the disarmament of branches and all forms of agency and administration, perpetrated against us, and the closing out of pitiless, against all men, all wars and immigration have proved sufficient in the past, and the U. M. I. A. has for the future to waste in such efforts.
The president, general, as he did last Sunday, delivered two speeches—one at the opening of the meeting and another after the American leader, his Excellency Him. Dr. J. W. H. Eason, had spoken, in the first address, he told the Civil Service examination of the U. N. Y. A. last week, saying that a large number had passed. Those who passed the first examination were almost, through that probationary period and would shortly be sent out to his field work. Another examination would be held soon, and after that ex-
Commonly, he brings in a hummingbird good. Mr. Garvey, then took up the question of the Van-Aardvark Conspiracy, that, according to reports and press clippings he had received, the congress while in London, Paris and some towns on the other time appointed for being mistaken as representatives of the Garvey movement and that during their sessions, they were engaged almost wholly with discussions about Garvey's Garvey. "All about everybody," he said, "was what he told the date, the date he married was Garvey's Garvey" and with it, with a any questionless that he himself greatly enjoyed and that at the vast audience roaring with laughter.
as to enable it successfully to battle against all such forces of evil against Negroes everywhere. The Negro in the past has been fighting against himself for the white man, now it is time for him to wake and fight for himself and for his posterity. All in all the meeting was a lively one, there being no evidence of the slightest lessening in the spirit of enthustiasm among the people in their interest in and support of this great world-wide movement, and the pen descriptions of the actual scenes of rejoicing and terror of feeling on the part of the people that mark these wonderful meetings never to be forgotten by those who are fortunate enough to be able and actually attend any of them. MR. GARVEY'S OPENING ADDRESS
Immediately following the musical program, in which several delightful numbers were given (two being tries, one of which consisted of Madame Moye, Madame Houston and Madame Razobin-Mohren), Mr. Garvey arose and congratulated those who had taken the examination last Thursday of the Civil Service of the U. N. I. A. which resulted in a splendid average of intelligence. Of the 49 who took the examination, encouraging, and those who failed he urged not to give up hope, but to continue preparing themselves so that they could successfully pass the examination.
Those who had passed the first examination are now undergoing their probation in the office of the association the last ten days. They have meured up splendidly, and in a few days more will be sent out into the field to do the work required of them in executive positions. The new batch will come in on Monday, October 10, and be issued of their passing, either by letter or in the columns of The Negro World.
The next examination will be held a week from Thursday of this week, October 13, at 13 o'clock, in Liberty Hall. After that there will be no further examinations until six months hence. Following the examination to be held October 18 an examination will be held in Chicago, then in Cleveland, Ohio, then in Detroit, Mich., and in one or two other cities. An equitable distribution of the offices of the U. N. L. A. that must be filled by individuals who have passed their Civil Service requirements, thus giving each and every one throughout the country a chance, if he or she desires to qualify to enter the service of the association.
The President-General said he would still be absent for another week from the weekly evening meetings in Liberty Hall following to the heavy duties devolving from the Civil Service of supervising the plumbing of the applicants coming in, through the Civil Service, and this work that is to be assigned to them, and so forth. Meetings will be continued to be held in the hall, every night, and its hoped every city who could would attend.
U. N. I. A. Now an International Problem
The work of the Universal Newer Improvement Association, "Mr. Garvey said, is spreading and progressing to rapidly that, people should have come, to regard it as an international problem; and he believes this after the discussion by the nations of the world of the government question at the coming conference to be held in Wantington, the next great question will be, "What will we do? will they be the Negro? That is to be expected in view of recent developments in South Africa. Mr. Garvey said he would later, in the subsequent address: Before the meeting over, read from communal calls he has received that a whole Plan African Companies that had been " lost in the long-lived war" has been up to "exploiting, that's yet," Marry Garvey. " (Applicase) When Dr. Ho's arrived in England, even if the land is in U.N. E.A. had repulsed him, the English press was determined to accuse him as taking a representative of Marry Garvey. The entire thing happened in Paris. France and America have the presence there of the representative of Marry Garvey (Laughlin) " (In the last month," according to the speaker, "that Coltoness ديلشا and Del Biscok sent to the country the tabletop that were reported in the American States of the beginning of the seasons) " (The Congress's position of being off the coast of the country is not a question of the veryology, " (Laughlin) " One of the latest news has taken back gave me the effect of the story about the report of the U.S.教育部, word that, when in that Congress was Mayors (Marry Garvey's House of Lords) " (Homes of Laughlin). Between 1970 and 1971 the new government has been created in the United States that now would be the only States of America that they were

deliverance of Africa to the Africans, not knowing that we are not yet ready, (Laughter) When we are ready we are not going to send Dr. Bu Bois to act for us, we are going to send Captain Gaines. (Everybody stretched up to see Captain Gaines, but Captain Gaines was not present. This was followed by a burst of laughter.) Times' today carried an article of some great writer from Capetown in which he writes that it might be a joke Americans on this side seeing Marcus Garvey in scarlet robes with his big talk, but it is not a joke for us over in South Africa.' (Applause.) Now, when you have got South Africa to say that, it means that you are go-

A. that could not be properly studied in ten years' time,
Pan-African Congress Taken Up With
Talk About Marcus Garvey
Talk About Marcus Garvey
- At the Pan-African Congress, from reports I have received, they did nothing but try to excuse themselves over Marcus Garvey at their sessions in Paris, Berlin and London. So that we could talk about the Laughter and applause) We had one New York and we had one in Europe, and we sent Dr. Dubois over to Europe to take care of the one we held there while we were busy with the one we held here. They have advertised the U. N. I. in Europe more than we could have paid for. If you want to see evidence of this fact, come to my office at any time and I will show you between thirty and fifty newspaper clippings—not small clippings, but whole pages—devoted to the U. N. I. A. and Marcus Garvey, taken from press reports on the Pan-African Congress. They even published a graphic, and had my hair all straightened up (laughter), so that I looked like anything but the Nero I am.
Now Take U. N. I. A. Movement
Geriously
"Nevertheless, they have at last come to their senses that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is a movement to be taken seriously. I understood also that the French press was divided in opinion concerning us; even the English press also. Some of the French papers were for the N. U. I. A. and the Garvey policy and others were against the policy and against the movement. I suppose the self-interest of the capitalist press naturally was against the movement, because of the large investments to be protected in Africa. But the liberal press, the Sozialist press, all supported the work of the U. I. A." "So that you will realize that our movement has become an international problem, and it will not surprise me, as I have already said, that after a permanent conference by the nations of the world, the next question to be taken up will be the future government of Africa."
Plan to Mobilize 200,000,000 Stalwart Negroes
Some people, Mr. Garvay remarked, complain that the U. N. L. A. does not hold mass meetings to protest against injustice, as lynchings, etc., against colored people in America. But the U. N. L. A. has no time to waste over small things; it is out looking for big game—the game of absolute, complete, undutiful liberty and freedom. The association does not purpose going after anything it cannot accomplish; that is its plan. "When it makes a demand, based upon justice, based upon human liberty, based upon constitutional right," said he, "we are not going back, without it. (Cries of No, 'Cool, No,' applaud.) That is why we are not troubling ourselves about all these minor things." Yet, when the U. N. L. A. makes a demand it is going to mobilize behind that demand at least $000,000,000 stavlart Negros. (Applaud.) That's what we are aiming at—the big game. When we get that, all this lynching will stop, all this Jim Crowlism will stop; in short, all Jim and form of injustice against the Negro will cause all over the world.
Holding Mass Meetings and issuing
Protata ineffectual
"For the last fifty years colored people in America have been holding mass meetings and sending out petition, and still they have been unable to stop proclaiming and other acts of oppression against us. The U. N. L. A. has no time therefore, to waste in such effort, let the N. A. A. C. P. do that; let the Equal Rights League send out petitions and hold mass meetings, but we have no time to waste that way. We are getting tired ready, the world ever, that when we make that one last, the demand, we will get everything we expect, and we are sure, we will do nothing. There will be no backups, for things. There will be no communications, provided one wishes the demand." —Alice Hirred
Only Europe is affirmed, but Africa is visited; Africa that might and should be forciven to many nations, and it is purporting to see some of the nations, but of Africa, where we cannot be forciven to any nation. Hirred and Fruits were able to lend it over the nations without even considering the failure of the nations.
Times today carried an article of some great writer from Capetown in which he writes that it might be a joke Americans on this side seeing Marcus Garvey in scarlet robes with a hat and a band over in South Africa'. (Applause). Now, when you have got South Africa to say that, it means that you are going some; it means that you are pulling everything before you'. (Applause).
MIG EXCELLENCY MON, DR
EAGON'S ADDRESS
His Excellency H. Rev. Dr. J. W. H. Eason, American leader, upon being called upon to address the audience, said it was a fortunate thing for any man, woman or child to be privileged to be in Liberty Hall, to catch the enthusiasm and feeling of race pride of the people, and to hear the music and listen to the stirring, eloquent addresses delivered upon matters of vital interest and importance to the Negro. He always foll honored, he said, whenever making a speech here, and he hoped that the address of the resident General who had preceded him would be carried away by all who were present, particularly that part of it that referred to the influence of the Universal Improvement Association through the work of the Rev. Dr. J. W. H. Eason, the world. When first he came to Liberty Hall, he stated publicly, such was his faith in the principles of the association that even if at any time he were forced out, he would arrive somehow or other, to get back into it. There is nothing like the U. N. L. A. anywhere, and he would be to sever himself from it, he would lose all
Colored people, he pointed out, have worked fo. white people and been abused by them, and treated with all forms of injustice, and yet when one of his own race comes upon the scene and by his advice and counsel tries to lead them and point out the way to their salvation industrially and economically they are over-sensitive - what he says, and are unwilling to follow his command. That attitude of the Negro, he urged, should change. He should be willing to co-operate with those who are capable of loading and who it is plain to see are earnest and sincere in their effort to - them.
Studying the U. N. I. A.
Dr. Jason gald he had been carefully studying the U. N. L. A. even experimentally, and so deep and complex are the things it stands for, and the objects it hopes to and is striving to accomplish, that it is not a matter of easy comprehension. He had been the pastor of a large church in Philadelphia, and when he had first heard of the associatio and its principles he relied upon it, and decided to give up his work, and throw his whole time and energy in association, because he believed it a field of wider and greater usefulness for him in serving the interests of his people. In the church in which he served he was obliged to work under the domination of a Bishop, and this was part of a system in which advancement and preferment depended not upon ability and meritiousness, but upon influence with the powers that be. This limited his efforts, and he was able to accomplish what he has associated himself with the U. N. L. A. he finds the widest latitude for the exercise of his God-given and acquired powers intellectual and otherwise, for the good of his race and for humanity, without the necessity of being subservient to any one.
A Serious Movement
The movement behind the U. N. L. A. the Doctor said, in, after all, a serious one, and therefore requires serious and long study. Notwithstanding this, a certain minister, a former colleague, who had graduated from the same college from which he had received his diploma, had written in an editorial of recent date in one of the Negro weekly newspapers that had studied the Universal Negro Employment Association two weeks, and therefore talks himself consistent to write others on the subject. His advice, along that they should not join it. The idea, this speakers said, is proposed. No one was think of taking only two weeks of study any system of government, while, disimilarly, the historical whether American or English, since they had their proper understanding required years of the most thorough study. The study will not be a matter of the same type of study. The study is for that is, a study of that two weeks of the time to pass on the time to use as an author's upon it. This is a question. In the principles which it serves, it is not�. It is to have the right to study
How, then, can any one preface to be able to study it in so short a time as two weeks and then pose as an authority on it? He ridiculed it, subjecting the writer to whom he made reference to a just and most severe censure. There are some things concerning the U. N. I. A. that could not be properly studied in ten years' time, he declared, as for example, that phase of it regarding how it is taking hold of South Africa.
Will Go Through the South and Debate Subject
Though he said he does not usually stop to debate with people who differ from him on the subject of the U. N. I. A. he is willing to go South and travel far and wide there and debate this subject exhaustively before the people, confident he can convince them of the fallacy of the argument of those who attempt, out of their ignorance, to advise others not to join or support it; and when he has done this, the result doubles will be that many of the Negro ministers in that section, who have been taken advantage of by them and misled and kept in ignorance, will find themselves grabbing a plow or something else for a job, as their congregations will fornake them. For Negroes are tired of being, and now want something substantial, like the N. U. I. A. is giving them, and they are ready to follow where His Excellency leads, so long as the latter upholds the principles and strives for the attainment of the aims and objects of the association.
Neecurity of Studying Temporal Needs
Question of the Hour
Colored people are tired of being kicked and cuffed and banished here and there. They no longer want to be given a "promissory note on Heaven," and of hearing the dieful question, "Are you ready to die?" The U. N. L. A. is trying to get the Negroes of the world to live," said Dr. Dr. Jones, "and instead of worrying sq. much about a home over yonder, with a great white throne and a mighty kingdom set up there, where we shall spend eternity, though we are strictly religious and beset by fear of death, worrying now rather about where we are going to spend the night in peace and happiness and to joy."
He referred to having heard the Mayor of New York speak in the afternoon, and said that Mayor Hylan assured his hearers that the Ku Klux Klan would not be allowed by the authorities to create any disturbance in New York. He (Dr. Eason) has a very close friend, who, though a Negro, could pass for anything in the world but a Negro. This friend, who is a full-fledged member of U. N. L. A., knows all about the Klan and their innerworking, and what it thinks about the Garvey movement, and he also knows that the Klan met on the 16th in New York. But it is laughable to hear some people here in Hartam say they are ready for the Ku Klux Klan, when they haven't even a toy pop-gun with which to defend themselves. But the U. N. L. A., he said, is trying to create a force, a power among Negroes, by getting them all lined up, that will enable them successfully to combat against the Ku Klux Klan or any other band or group of people whose purpose and object it is to destroy or oppress Negroes.
Mithorte It Has Been the Negro Ve
the Negro
The old policy of the Negro has been, in substance that of the Negro versus the Negro. It is time now that he should be for himself; that his policy should be "the Negro for the Negro" and "Africans for the Africans!" A study of the history of the Negro shows that for years and years he has tolled and labored, and I died, for the benefit of others; yet when the time came to give out the rewards he was overlooked entirely. "Especially has this been true," said Dr. Eason. "In our own motherland, Africa. There they have used our brothers to ` hit against ' each other, in order that allen, packs might come in and take possession of the land, and its natural wealth. In this country and in the islands of the sea, the white rice has used the Negro to clear away the forests, in till the soil, for built, up cities, and to make the withredness blossom as a rose, and so far as he has been but for theirs. We are the only good with the legends of the country, where the herbalists, Dr. Hode, even where they were tightred, per the shortness of American the Trotter and the green in the land, was the mitigated; our bloods with thee to the early years of the world, and the old people, they were the only people of the world. But, too, the first of the good of others, was the most

that if dying must be—and without shedding of blood, there can be no remission of sins—and he has decided that if he must make the wilderness bloom and bloom as a rose, he will band himself together, the 400,000,000 strong, with a martial tread, singing the national anthem, led by bands of music the world over, "Ethiopia, Thou Land of Our Father!" he will turn his face to his enemies, turn his back on wrong, on treachery, on deceit, on disloyalty among his own, and with face toward the morning star and with the Red, the Black and the Green hoisted to the breast, will exclaim: "We are going to fight; we are going to sing, we are going to shout; we are going to work; we are going to die, that Africa shall be free, free for ourselves and for our children!"

HON. MARCUS GARVEY'S SPEECH
His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey
spoke as follows.
I am going to read two passages from a book written by a white South African by the name of Maurice B. Evans, who came to this country from South Africa some years ago to study the relationship between black and white in this country, so as to help South Africa—or, rather, the statesmen of South Africa—in handling the native problem of that country. In writing the book he had occasion to quote pointed statements and remarks of the statesmen of South Africa and extracts from some of the white newspapers of the country. Among other things quoted in his book are the following passages: He says: "A correspondent of a Georgia paper writes: 'Let me tell you one thing: Every time people in the North countenance in any way, shape or form any form of social equality you lay up trouble not for ourselves nor so much for us as for the Negro. Right or wrong the Southern man will never tolerate it and will go through the horrors of another reconstitution period before they will kill every Negro in the South. This is not idle boasting or fire eating, but the cold hard facts stated in all calmness." He quotes again J. Ambrose Price another Southern writer, whom he claims voices the sentiment of this whole country. These are the words:
"We can never really claim to be one of the greatest governments on earth while the Negro holds positions in the different parts of the government. This is a disgrace to white intelligence and the claim of an honest government. The United States Government was founded on intelligence, artistry and most of these principles or it will suffer the disgrace which comes from government positions being filled by Negroes.
I have had enough from the quotations of this book to give us an idea of the sentiment of the attitude of our white fellow citizens toward us as Negroes in this country. A couple of Sunday night ago I spoke from the subject of another book written about the Negro. This is still another one and there are hundreds of such volumes—white individuals—white individuals, I mean—and in the public libraries in this country—volumes of them that are read every day, every week, every month, every year, by the white people of this country, which tend to settle their policy toward the Negro. It is not necessary for them to speak out their intention when their intention is already written. All that the white student has to do is to study the intention and the policy of the law, but without the law, that has the problem of the Negro for the last fifty years—not the spoken word, but the understood word, is the guiding policy of the white fellow citizens toward the Negro.
Our statemanship of the past and even our statemanship of today is expecting the white people to come our way. We want to kill all Negroes. We want to want to kill all Negroes.
expitains all Negroes. We want to get all Negroes out of the country. We want to lynch all Negroes. We want to starve all Negroes." These are the expressions publicly made that our past leaders and statemen have been listening for to convince them that the white people have a settled policy in their relationship with Negroes. If they are waiting for the white people to come out and make such statements they will still remain silent. The statements are such, the policy is such, that all that the white people have to do is to study the existing policy and to act it without speaking it; because they cannot well, in the face of civilization, speak out the intention they have toward the Negro because civilization will accuse them of humanity. But the policy is being worked out and our statemen were not able to discover it. It is the discovery of this policy that has brought the Universal Negro Improvement Association into being. We know the written word is the intention, and therefore we are determined to defeat the intention—that intention which the Negro has 400,000,000 Negroes. While they bewaid Gnegro governmental jobs in the United States of America—the white man's country, they claim, while they bewaid the dangers of social equality in America—the white man's country, as they claim—what do they say about Africa, our motherland?
Africa the Claim of the Negro
I am glad they know it is serious now. Among other things, the writer went on to say: "Agitation and propaganda of the kind carvery seeks to carry on here must be considered in the light of the fact that the whites in South Africa are in the minority of one to five, and the native majority is rapidly increasing. The probability is that as time goes on, the natives continuing to practice polygamy, this proportion will be doubled, Putting all else any-
thing in the nature of an inviting. It is that, seen, what a political force they may be bound by expulsion."
Let there be no uniting, they claim that even by evolution the givers of South Africa have the advantage. But we have the advantage that the think of us will force will force us to have or to give. If they take any kind they will take South Africa and join it to America and allow us to go from America to South Africa, and their will be no opening. Later on, when we are the topograph and when we please a proposition before the governments of Europe and of America. We will say: "We are satisfied that the two races cannot live side by side in social equality; we realize that there will be confusion in seeking political office in the nation between us both, and that we are not being black, that is not going to deny us the privilege of being President, and since afire cannot be two Presidents and you are determined that there shall not be a black one, now let us come to terms. We do not want any fighting we do between us, we fight against the nation is justice and fair play—the right to live, democracy, complete freedom. So now we are willing to leave the South if we will leave South Africa, West Africa, East Africa, North Africa and Central Africa. We are willing even to make an exhumation of our ancestors, and we will take your palaces to South Africa. We think we can come to terms some way or other."
Let me tell you, men. it is only a question of time. I do not care what my friend Dr. Du Bols says or Motton says. I do not care what times coming; let me tell you no better time is coming as far as our relationship with the other race is concerned. The only better time that is coming is to create a better life for ourselves, the time that you will help to bring about the time that you will help to create. But expecting that the hearts of white people will change and soft you are taking a desperate charge
Prejudice on the Increase
Prejudice is the trend of events. If you study the attitude of the white race between Europe and America you will find that they are becoming more prejudice every day. Study them carefully; study them closely for the sake of learning. Study them another conclusion than that we are losing ground. What they would have done for you twenty years ago or ten years ago they will not do now; and what they will not do for you in the next ten years because humanity is becoming more selfish every day; less sympathetic, less charitable, and you can take no chance with the future except that future is in another ten, twenty, thirty or fifty years great changes will take place in the United States of America and great changes will take place in Europe and great changes otherwise it will mean our doors; it will mean our examination; it will mean our extinction.
Negroes Will Tolerate No Compromis-
ing Leaders
I cannot see why follows the Candace, the great French Deputy, tried to deceive the entire race by compromising them with the belief that him and France deserve the Negro as part of herself. Why should he try to get his own people, knowing them as he does, to believe that when he knows from his h g intelligence that it is possible that he would be France during the presence of the Pan-African Congress was demonstrative of her hatred for the Negro. But it took more than the ordinary man to understand the malicious and wicked nature of France toward Negroes. Candace and Diagne were the idols of France. During the last bloody war Diagne was selected by France to go to Sangai to help the French colonists in the war. They placed at his disposal a battlefield which conveyed him from France to the scene of action. He went among the French colonial settlers in the strumestrally over one million Negroes were recruited in France to the scene of action. 600 of them died in France and 50,000 of them died in Sangai. They were used as shock troops in the war. They were used as thousands of thousands. But they saved France

When Dr. Du Bois went to Paris to hold his Pan-African Congress, this great black French patriot was selected by Dr. Du Bois as President of the Congress, and immediately the French had them as his honour, and they had as it were honored in giving a bachtition to take him to his native land to recruit black people to die for Frenchmen. They said: "We are surprised you that whom we love so much, for whom we did so much, should link with us." "Africa for the Africans," Why you are ungrateful? after all we have done for you that is the thanks you are giving us." That was the sum and substance of the French newspaper criticism of that Negro who did so much for France and that France did so much for Africa, selected as the President of his Pan-African Congress. They ridiculed the idea that he should offer himself as a sympathiser of Africa for the Africans or to a Pan-African Congress. And he himself was black Negro from Senegal, who believed that he should be more thankful that
That reveals the hatred of France, the hypocrisy of Tranck the damnable lie of France that she loves Negroes and that she intends to help the deceived Negroes so much as these intended were as pide toward the Negro, they would have welcomed the Tun-Arthan Congress and would help support the Tun-Arthan Congress. But that latter means it. Talk about Ever, there is no love for the life that you have for your soul, and all this this, this hypocrisy, we have inborn under the Hypocrisy of Great Britain, that Hypocrisy, of France the hypocrisy of Italy, the lie

Here in America we are who of African ancestry and Negro blood have drunk this cup of gall and wormwood to the bitter dreta. Our labor built the greeneries of this land in which we grew our crops on the grounds of public accommodation; from the church, the ballot and the laws protection. We are jim-crowed, disfamished and lynched without redress from law or public sentiment which vigorously exertes its humanity on behalf of the Irish, Armenians and Germans thousands of miles away, but can find no evidence of their barism and savagery perpetrated on black fellow citizens in their very midst. This cynical indifference extends to the leaders of the Christian Church, the high priests of democracy and the conservative exponents of the aims of labor. Time, the Negro is left out from the plans being put into effect, and the organization and reconstruction of American affairs on the basis of "democracy."
We Negroes have no faith in American democracy and can have no hope of a lynching, communal and social station. It in the dark allures of its mental reservations. When a Preacher shoves an African-American for his preachments on "The New Freedom" while pregnant Negro women are roasted, by white savages in his section of the South with not one word of priest coming from his lips when a schmaltz which he has been accustomed to "alarmed" over the sorts of savages in Central Africa while it sees every day the bodies of the black yellow Christians brutalized, and their gide blasts while it stumbles in gretest acquiescence; when the slain labor of African women is condemned in gretest accuseance to the masses of black women, who conservativelabor leaders would condemn in America for the abuses and executions of unsuccessful relations—what much things represent what happens every day in a society where the great watchword, that we Negroes must be accused for feeling hitherto live brave 'hepee' for the better types.
and what you may say about the imperial powers of others. What you have been once you must be again or you must die. Tell me that you must live a race of cowards and I am ashamed that I am a Negro, but if you live a race of freemen, I am glad. I am proud that I am a Negro and for what is in me and the God above and the world in which I live, I am ever one of my blood: I shall give every bit of my energy for the highest ideal, the grand and noble purpose of Africa for the Africans—those 61 homes and those abroad. (Apollus.)
Miss Mary Kingley used to say that she did not believe that Christianity could be a solution of the African's problem "because, while it may be possible to convert Africans en access to African convert Europeans." This still remains substantially true. But since Europeans insist that the religious system which they preach and practice must be called Christianity, we who regard it with unfriendly eyes must make a distinction between Africa and Christianity. We venture to believe that the religion of Jesus Christ would be a good thing not only for Africa, but also for Europe. But this queer thing called Christianity does not benefit Europe and America and is considerable of a current that we do not believe in and America that we find most hatred and race prejudice. greed, obsessivity, drunkenness and organized bloodshed and banditry.
Why, then, will Christian ministers turn their backs upon inquity at home and have such a fine eye for it that Christian Christ it seems to us that there is room enough and to need enough in Christian hands.
The African Negro who is not quite the fool that some of his kind friends think, knows, as they know, that it is only when Christianity comes into its content that gn comes with its blight and degradation; that it is only where Christianity goes with its dirty diseases that destroy life or make it live; the cure is; he knows that when Christianity reaches him he loses the land on which he lives and must become a landless legal bondservant to the white Christians of all sorts; he knows that, whereas all true believers are equal Islam not only in the sight of God, but in the sight of the magistrate, and in the church, organized and made effective in all her institutions, from the church to the jail, insists that only white men and that Negroes especially must be treated like dog, whom kindly or orally. The African Negro knows this; the missionary and his friends know it; and the African knows that, then, that when the missionary and his friends are at home as hosts of the stability of the Christian Church and her intention "to establish African perseverance as the easiest guide in the evolution of the higher African civilization" the African answers in the words of one whom the Christian Church circles around each day by its deed. "Thus hypocritical first cast out the beam from its own eyes, and their shalt they throw out the beam out the joke from the brothel." We can appeal quite understand the ground on which white Christians offer
Christianity by the Black Africans, we can conclude that white women empathize with the suffering of something at least which have hitherto it. It seems grenning them and since they may imply the presence. Have they are willing to take the same system elsewhere in exposition of the same products. But can the white male priestry justify his religion in the same way? How are children at home? Have white women in Europe (including the queens) stopped smoking cigarettes and smoking cocktail? Do they still smash each other trusts as a pastime in the upper classes, as the newspapers tall to no? Is there the country? And do not the religion and nationalists exist by the millions at home? The legislators like Lord, George and the "unlister Harry" like Lord Gray who plunged millions of British Christians into a bath of blood—have the misfortunes of love of Christ, who died to save an man?" His Christian love at home been strong enough yet to reach the suffering children of Russia and include the Soviet ruler, Laine, in its entire domain. And if these questions disturb and trouble the hearts of honest men this fervor of faith in behalf of the conquest of pagan lands by the creed of Christianism?
The truth is that the work of the white missionary, like that of the white soldier, is dirty work. We will be told that there are and have been noble missionaries like Livingstone and Dan Crawford. We admit it. And there are and have been noble soldiers like Gunthera Fassion and Gimmo Gordon. But that fact has not altered the character of the work of the soldier, which is to carry destruction wherever he may be sent to carry it to the enemy of the enemy "enemy" or the guilt of their own government. In the modern European state every institution is used by the dominant class to class and which contributes to the general social purpose of that clauses. It is not necessary for the institution to understand the purpose of his calling. Quite possibly he may idealise his own intents and aims; indeed, it is better for his masters that he should, not see them as his masters. Then he can be quite "inneer", earnest and spiritually-minded. But the facts that he shall become less costly and less dangerous to those who do the robbing and the ruling. That such work is necessary is especially conducive to the success of Oliger, Sir Harry Johnson, the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce and a certain wing of the Aborigine Protective Society.
For this purpose the "infidels" like Johnson, Olivier and Futunm Weah join hands with the feudal believers of the National Liberal Club to missionaries the African into contentment and submission while the robbing and ruling go forward. In his book, "The Conflict of Color," Mr. Furunm Weah states the made truth nicely and explains: why "infidels" like himself and Sir Harry Johnson are so keen on packing the Cross against the Crescent. And, finally, the Secretary of the American Board of Foreign Missions, the Rev. Dr. Patton, tells us in his book, "The Conflict of Color," what we might have expected after studying the political work of the missionaries in Uganda and Lubalabu namely, that one missionary is worth more than a battalion of soldiers to the white government inasmuch as he keeps the black African from organizing his discontent in ways that would be harmful to white men's rule. And he explains that that is the express reason why the British Government is reason why the education of the black Africans more and more into the hands of the white Christian missionary. The African knows this and that knowledge explains why after five hundred years of Christian contact two hundred million Africans are nominally Christians—from which number we must deduct a million and a half white Africananders in south Africa.

But it is not so. A man is a complex personality. He is a product of heredity, environment and the freedom of the mind. The problems his near and remote ancestors faced, the physical, political and social conditions in which they have lived, the way they psychically reacted to opportunities, difficulties, hardships and temptations, and the way he psychically reacts to opportunities, difficulties, hardships and temptations determine what he is today. Heredity partly determines how a man psychically reacts. But the environment also has a reflex psychological reaction upon an individual.
Why did the Germany that produced a Kant, Fichte, Schelling, Hegel, Lotze and Paulsen in philosophy, a Schleiermacher and Pfilderer in theology, a Herder, Lessing, Goethe and Schiller in literature, a Beethoven and Wagner in music, why did the Germany which for over a century made notable contributions to theology, philosophy, psychology, science, medicine, literature, art and music suddenly manifest a blood lust and mania for world domination seven years ago? Sixty years ago Bismarck conceived the idea of welding Germany together by the blood and iron policy. When the Kaiser and Ludendorf were boys and their minds were plastic when Von Hindenburg and Von Tirpitz were young men. Bismarck was giving Germany a military glory which reached its climax when Count von Moltke humbled the pride of the proud French people at Sedan. At the same time Tretske was teaching from the classroom that might makes right. Consequently when Kaiser Wilhelm II ascended the throne some thirty-four years ago the storm and stress period had developed the military ideal in him and thousands of other Germans. And when the Kaiser lectured on Germany's great men in Koenigsburg, the home of Immamuel Kant, the man who so revolutionized modern thought that he was called the Copernicus of modern philosophy, the man who said that two things filled him with awe—the starry heavens above and the moral law within, the man whose categorical imperative rang round the world, and did not even mention the name of Kant, the world's greatest metaphysician—it indicated how the teachings of Bismarck and Tretske had transformed the German mind and metamorphosed the German. Undoubtedly the Kaiser was born with a masterful will, an imperial disposition and an impetuous temperament, but the psychic environment of his boyhood, youth and manhood determined the ideals which his imperial will would set out to realize

Down in Dixie, and frequently in the North, the Negro is crowded in the unsanitary sections of large cities, earning lower wages than his white brother, and consequently frequently unable to give his wife and babe proper nourishment and medical care, and yet sociologists marvel at the high death rate in large cities. Down in Dixie the Negro youth is taught in school geographies, text books, magazines and newspapers that he belongs to an inferior race. And in order to impress the idea of his inferiority upon him his good Caucasian friends down there disfrianchise and jim-crow him, set up the signs "white" and "colored" in railway stations, railway trains, steamships, trolley cars and parks, and they politely ask him to leave town or beat him up if he says that he is a full-fledged man, the same as the Caucasian, and they string him up to the limb of a tree or riddle him with bullets if he has the audacity to sass or strike a white man, regardless of the provocation. Down in Dixie the Negro youth faces an environment cunningly designed to keep him inferior.
THE QUESTION OF RACE SUPERIORITY
WE print elsewhere in The Negro World the New York Sun's account of the address of Dr de Lapoyouge before the Euglenes Congress, at which the famous French anthropologist spoke of the colossal disaster which is rushing towards white civilization. Dr. de Lapoyouge said in the course of his address, "Races may quite easily accept the same language and may change their religions and customs and may be called by the same national name, but they cannot change the shape of their skulls, their skin or their character. Anthropological analysis, however, reveals the existence of a superior white race and of inferior white races. It is this superior white race which, by virtue of its superior fitness, is now occupying the positions of social responsibility in education, finance, science, religion. We are confronted with the face that the supplies of petroleum, coal and necessary minerals are limited and the finding of equivalents for these supplies is a task which only the superior race can undertake. The superior race has gone so far toward these equivalents already that we can no longer speak of the atom as indivisible, and in other ways our civilization stands at the edge of infinite development which will require memories even more vast than ever before and intelligences more brilliant if these things are to be controlled."
Up in the colder North and West the Negro can vote and hold office, is admitted to some resturants and theatres and can usually get a sleeper or stateroom, but the labor unions have discriminated against him, although they are partially letting him in, and there are some clerical, desk, office and factory jobs barred to him because of his color. Now all of these things have a reflex psychological reaction upon the Negro and breed in him a fatalistic pessimism. In America the Negro can only go as far and as fast as the dominant Anglo-Saxon will permit. This inhibits the Negro's intuitive, depresses the spirit of adventure and develops in him the watching and waiting attitude. Only the Negro's superabundant vitality, sunny nature, innate optimism, love of music and faith in God prevented his going down under oppression during the past three hundred years which would have crushed most races.
EDUCATION AND RACIAL VALUES
It seems strange to read of as eminent an anthropologist as Prof Osborn saying that education cannot affect racial values. What transformed the rude, barbarous Germanic and Gallic tribes of two thousand years ago into a race that boasts of its Lloyd George, Lord Balfour, Eilhu Root and Secretary of State Hughes, a race that in America evolved the greatest republic known to history and in New York City has developed architecture, bridge building, mechanics and engineering skill to a point never before attained in the evolution of mankind? The Greeco-Roman civilization, the Hebrew Bible, the Christian religion and the Renaissance, the rediscovery of the Greek world, were the civilizing agencies, the educational processes which worked the transformation in tribes which Julius Caesar found savage and barbarous two thousand years ago.
But more significantly were the remarks of Dr. Henry Fairfield, Othman of Columbia University, that education and environment do not greatly alter racial values.
It is certainly unusual to end of a distinguished French scientist speaking of or a superior white race and interior white races and saying nothing about an inferior black race. Perhaps he does not regard the black race as inferior or as insignificant and inconsequential as not to be taken into account.
The question of a superior race is largely a relative question. When we discuss inferior and superior races, we bring in relativity not the relativity of Einstein, however. Three thousand years ago, tip Babylonians and Egyptians were powerful and prosperous and regarded themselves as superior, while the Greeks were rude and semi-barbarians. Twenty-five hundred and twenty-four hundred years ago the Greeks had reached the high water mark of civilization and regarded themselves as superior, while the Romans were rude and semi-barbarians. Two thousand years ago the Romans were the conqueror of the world and regarded themselves as superior, while the Britons, Gauls and Germanic tribes were rude and decidedly barbarians. Today the descendants of the erstwhile barbarians and savages are dominating the world, regarding themselves as superior and considering the Zulus, Kaffirs, Basutos, Ba Lula, Ba Lofo, Ba Luba, Ba Mangyata, the Mandingans, the Krumans, the Senegalese and Vai tribe are rude and decidedly barbarian and of an interior racial stock. Perhaps five hundred years from now the desired and exploited Africans may be carrying the torch of civilization and deciding who is in the world.
With regard to the transforming effect of education upon the Negro, we can observe the process best not in a Negro born in a civilized country, but in a Negro bred and born in Africa. Adjai Crowther came of the supposedly inferior Yoruba tribe. But he won such renown as a missionary preacher and scholar that the Anglican church consecrated him as Bishop and Oxford University conferred the D.D. degree upon him. Dr. Oreshatukhe Faduma, a full-blooded African, was bred and born in Sierra Leone. But he graduated from London University, distinguished himself in theology and Hebrew, winning a scholarship in the Yale Divinity School and rendered splendid service as a preacher and educator in North Carolina and is now doing splendid work as an educator in Freetown, Sierra Leone. The father of an African boy in Liberia was a savage, warlike Mohammedan chief. But that boy was recently consecrated in New York City as Bishop Coagittator of the Episcopal Church, with Liberia for his field. In Bishop Crowther, Dr Faduma and Bishop Gardiner we can see what education can do for the native African.
It will be absolutely impossible in the space of one editorial to adequately discuss the views of Dr. de Lapoyouge and Prof. Osborn. They involve a discussion of the views of Guyot, Buckle, Taine and Prof. Robert De Courney Ward of Harvard regarding the effect of the climate of the tropics, the temperate zone and the polar zones on main. They involve a discussion of the relative importance of heredity and environment, both psychical and physical, in determining character and conduct, and they involve a discussion of free will and determinism. Whatever affects the individual affects the race, because the race is nothing but an aggregation of individuals.
A race is but an aggregate of individuals. And what education can do for an individual in a few years it can do for a race in the course of centuries. While Dr. de Lapoyouge and Prof. Osborn have won eminence and distinction as scientists and anthropologists, they have something to learn in the realm of psychology and the philosophy of history. W. H. F
THE "WHY" OF IT
We believe that Prof. Robert D. Courtey Ward of Harvard University undoubtedly summed up the situation when he said on pages 220 and 223 of his book on Climate: "Man's climatic environment affects him in many ways. His clothing, dwelling, food, occupations and customs, his physical and mental characteristics, his systems of government, his migrations, his history—all are affected to a greater or less degree." Man moves readily from place to place, from climate to climate, His food, drink, habits, occupations to some extent, His physical and mental characteristics, change in consequence. Inheritance, inter-marriage, environment, opportunities, soil and many other factors enter in to determine what changes individual man and the race as a whole shall undergo. Time is a very important element in the final result, for in time a gradual adaptation to new conditions takes place. Climate is but one of many controls, albeit a most important one, for it largely determines what many of the other factors, such as diet, customs and occupations, for example, shall be."
AMERICAN ISRAELITE, a prominent Jew trained an editorial last week dealing with the tenness of the Jew. Discussing at length the Jews in the various wars of history, the "Why is it that when it comes to the def
THE AMERICAN ISRAELITE, a prominent Jewish weekly, contained an editorial last week dealing with the non-compatibility of the Jew. Discussing at length the great record made by the Jews in the various wars of history, the editor asked the question, "Why is it that when it comes to the defense of himself the Jew is so submissive and non-resistant?" and then he answered this question by saying that the Jew is not by nature any more pacific than other races, and that the reason he does not fight back more often in the defense of himself is because he is conscious of the fact that both Church and State are united against him and that if he made an effort at defense they would both unite in having the army and navy to massacre him.
This position goes a long way to explain the non-combativeness of the Negro when it comes to the defense of himself. There is no one who can accuse the Negro of cowardice. There was not another racial group similarly envisioned as the Negro who furnished more volunteer in the various world's wars than he. Collectively he has been decorated for bravery, and individually the many Carnegie. Medals he has received attesting his daring prove that he is not by nature afraid of a risk even where life is concerned. Yet it cannot: he denied that the Negro is quite humble and submissive when it comes to a defense of himself, and the reason for this is not very difficult to find if we take just a little time to think. The Negro is conscious of the fact that at present there is no great government to protect him when he stalks, back. He is also aware of the fact that the white races of the world are a unit against him. This causes him to fault and to consider.
The New York Sun, in an editorial in its reply to Dr. Osborn's statement that the United States is beginning to realize that education and environment do not greatly alter racial values, truly said: "With two million troops which the United States sent to Europe during the World War moused universal admiration for their splendid morale and vitality. But the tall, muscular, agile American is the product of better living conditions rather than of better racial health." So it is undoubtedly true that the climate, the air, a man breathes, the food he eats, the water he drinks, the amount of exercise, the fresh air his occupation involves, the sanitary condition of his domicile in which he lives directly affects his physical stamina, and working through generations affects the physical stamina of a nation. The strongest constitution will break under over
The remedy for this is organization, a government of our own sufficiently strong to not only compel, the respect of white nations, but to warrant the confidence of colored men. This is the program of the U.W. I; Ai. In the words of His Excellency Marcus Garvey, the Negro has her joy, done his best on the battle, field. What he did in the World War was but child play. Wait until he begins to fight for a nation of his own. Then the poets will sing their best songs of valor, for the sons of Han will be their theme.
The second examination of civil servants of the Universal Negro Improvement Association came off in Liberty Hall on Thursday, September 13, 1921. Forty nine candidates sat for the examination, out of which thirty-three passed successfully as published below.
The candidates who passed three weeks ago will close their probation in headquarters in few days, and they will be sent out as executive secretaries to divisions throughout the country. The batch who passed on Thursday of last week will undergo their two weeks probation at headquarters, and will be sent out after the completion of all. All those who are desirous of serving as representatives and officials of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will avail themselves of the opportunity of sitting for the Civil Service examinations. As mentioned before, it is likely that the administration will use at least one thousand civil servants for the current year.

A very pretty wedding took place at Liberty Hall, 120 West 188th street, New York.

The bride was pretty gowned in a dress of white satin with silver lace and her long train of brocaded satin was held in place by a large pearl ornament. She wore a long veil of fine lace caught up with orange blossoms and silver, also a string of beautiful pearls. She carried a shower bouquet of white roses and lilies of the valley. The maid of honor wore a dress of white canton crepe trimmed with georgette and ribbon and a large lace hat with a breath of forget-me-not and ribbon. She carried a bouquet of pink rosebuds. The bridesmaid's gowns were of pink and blue satin and silk lace and their hats were of silk net and blue ribbon. The flower girls wore pink crepe de chiffre with Dutch bonnets to match and carried large baskets of roses, which were grown in the path of the bride. The page was dressed in a suit of black velvet and wore a white silk blouse.
The bride's mother, Mr. Albert Williams, was attractive in a gown of blue satin and gold lace. As the Black Star Line Band played the Wedding March of Mendelsohn, the bride entered the ball on the arm of her father, Mr. Albert Williams, preceded by attendants and her mother, followed by the maid of honor, and was met at the atar by the groom, who was attended by Mr. Jackson.

EDITORIAL NOTES
The black man has helped the white man to become powerful and strong, financially and politically; but the white man is not going to rechristicate the kindness go that the black man will notice it.
In the distribution of political plums, for instance, the white politician whose political strength and influence is very often due to the support given him by Negro votes receives the lion's hard recognition. The white political leader of a Negro constituency is regarded by party managers as a greater political asset then a half dozen or more of his powerful Negro satellites on whom he must rely to manipulate the votes and get practical results, and the plums are distributed the white leader gets a job which pays a salary equivalent to the combined yearly salaries of four or five of his Negro supporters, after they have reached the salary period in the game of politics.
No matter how well qualified legally or in a general way a black politician is, nor how useful he may have been in the campaign, he rarely, if ever, gets beyond the $4,500 or the $7,500 grade of official salaries under the Federal Government. But white politicians with less brains and less natural and acquired ability than many of their Negro constituents receive anywhere from $10,000 to $15,000 per annum and gladly yield to the pressure to accept these honorariums.
Isn't it about time for Negroes to stop defying these cheap and resourceful and hungry white politicians who use them as their mascotte in politics in the arena. In the case with an unknown white man engaged in politics and wishes to become famous, he negro-Negro-hater as old Tillman did.
In the North he wins a certain popularity by pretending to be broader minded and more liberal on the Negro question than the average white political hunter of a fat job and a competence. In the military service the rush to command Negro troops is born of the novelty of the experiment and the connectivity of the press notices of the Lieutenant or the Colonel who makes the sacrifice to command Negroes and the certainty of their success. As was the commander of the gallant 54th Massachusetts (Shaw) to lead his men into battle, for these shew white men know that the middle names of Negroes who handle arms of precision in war is "Certain Death," and that fidelity to their officers is a natural characteristic of all Negroes who have fought under white commanders. Ask the white officers of the old New York 18th Regiment if they had a feeling of security when leading these boys against the enemy on the bloody battlefields across the pond. We think they did, and most of them are alive.

Started by the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the Liberation of Africa—All Negroes
Aided to Substitute Five Dollars or More
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.
Bv N. Q. Q. T.
"I personally, will welcome anything among my people which will tend to unity among them and the development of race consciousness."
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.
"My people" refers to the Negro race, but the words above quoted are not from the lips of Marcus Garvey; they are not recorded of the late Booker T. Washington; they did not flow from Dr. Du Bois in a dream, or his dear Diagno, or his cute Candace. They are the words of the Vanguard Archdeacon C. W. Farquhar, a Caucasian gentleman, pedagogy, them African missionary, then priest. But that Negroes may realize how curiously Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association are affecting the interests of certain gentlemen, particularly the so-called missionaries, let them read the following extract from an interview with Archdeacon Farquhar, published in "The Daily Chronicle," of Georgetown, British Guiana, South America, on Sunday September 4, 1911. Farquhar, the divine, was on a visit to British Guiana, to obtain "monetary support" and "hoped to leave behind an organization of help, which would be permanent." A "Daily Chronicle" reporter, a Negro, asked, in the course of the interview:
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 remittances must be made out to the association and not to individuals. Address your communication to Secretary General, Universal Negro Improvement Association, 55 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.
All persons donating $25 or more to this fund, in addition to being granted a certificate, will have his or her photograph published in The Negro World and in the Universal Volume to be published for distribution all over the world.
THE FUND
"What material benefit would be derived as the result of West Indians enigrating to Africa, as advocated by the Marous Garvey propaganda?"
"Garvayism. a Mistake."
The reply, printed under the heading,
"Garveyism a Mistake," was as follows:
"My experience of the habits of, the natives of Africa leads me to the opinion that a limited emigration to the one independent Negro State in Africa will be profitable alike to the Republic and to the West Indian, but that any emigration on mass of West Indians to Africa, as if the latter place is an Eldorado to the Africa-West Indian, will be a huge mistake. The native population of West Africa will much as the elder brother in the Biblical story of the Prodigal, as an undesirable interoper. No such invasion of Africa as that advocated by the Marcus Garveyites can succeed in Africa, seeing that all the other places belong to European powers, who will resemble such intrusion. I am of opinion that Marcus Garvey's plan for the social and industrial improvement of the Negro race is very good, but the political scheme is a dream which can never be materialized and is doomed to failure. I will welcome anything among my people which will tend to unity among them and the development of race consciousness without, however, any hostility to the white race."
Pudge
Fudgel. And once more, fudgel! A more extraordinary distrain, and one more calculated to hoodwink Negroes of the West India, never came from the lips of an educated man. It contradiets itself. It stands convicted of insanity and insincerity at the bar of commonense and reason. It completely vindicates those, who charge Fuarhua and his likit with hypocrisy and velled robbery. It is wantonly misleading. It is untrue.
Archdeacon Fuarhua, says the "Daily Chronicle," is a native of Antigua; was he trained as a teacher; was later appointed to take charge of the educational work in West Africa, but when the French Government took over the mission, he joined the ministry. He is Canon of St. George's Cathedral, of Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa.
How It Happened
R is intensely interesting to note how the West African mission, which inspired Archbishop Fuarahu to become a minister of Christ, was founded. According to a statement made by Rev. Fuarahu to the "Daily Chronicle" it all happened in this wise. In 1880 Bishop Rawla, the first Bishop of Trinidad, while looking through a window of Cordoning College, of which he was principal had a vignon. A man called to him from Africa, "Come over and help us." But he did not obey the call. Instead, he communicated the matter to Bishop Parry, the then Bishop of Barbados. In 1881, Bishop Parry, responding to an invitation from the society, for the purpose of assisting an assistant in the commission of the 16th anniversary of the society, wrote that he conceived that the blast was of marking that universally was by starting a mission in West Africa and inducing other Bishops of the West Indian Province to cooperate. In 1883 the call was observed. Rev. Leachon an aged colonial priest, and Duport an evangelist, a native of St Kitts, went to West Africa, and wired appointed by the Bishop of Sergio Leona, who had the oversight of the Rio Pongo district to that district. So the Mission was founded.
I am instilled and enthused always with things Afric. I might not he able to go over on account of my advancing age, but I will do all I can to instruct the younger generation.
So enthused am I over the U. N. I. A. and all its allied entente prifice that it gives me great pleasure in subscribing to the African Redemption Fund.
An Opportunity Lost.
But Bibbah Jawai, is to be blamed, day by day, stood by his window, and served the prospect, and helped a man, to the scanty clothes of a valley, African, near from the warfare, leaving aena river, which spanned far away to the north of, Cochinam College, Barbadon and Jackson, of him, he was a great opportunity. Like, St. Philip when he received the call from Barbadon, he should. Have familed himself, even though he has afterwards
is he rebuked for calling unclean what God had made clean.
He copls his hatches to him many of the ardent young men whom he had trained in the school and the Greek, and graduated from the best school. Pal, his teacher, the son of the system, was sent to university. Noone-day whiteness are so easy; startle. He wears; contempt to "bumulate the matter". He murders that Farahan, on whom the yoke is subsequently fell, thinks as he does think to-day.
An Analysis.
But to return to the Archdiocese distribe in British Guiana, a British colony, where Carvagirism is now taking root, where The Negro World is banned by the government, where those who teach the things that Carvagiries teach are dogged by detectives.
In the first place, the Rev. Farquhar errs when he states there is only one independent Negro State in Africa. He evidently had in mind the Republic of Liberia. Does he forget the specious Kingdom of Abyssinia, many of whose people are now very much exercised in mind over Carvagirism, who followers of Carvay, whether West Indian, American or Canadian, would be welcome today in their thousands? He thinks that for emigration to Africa the word "Indians" (thanks for the word) to be required it must be limited and confined to the Republic of Liberia. And what is his reason for so saying? Africa, he states, is no El Dorado for the African-West Indian. The native African rebels intruded by his brethren, who were scattered over all the world through no fruit of their own.
A New Application.
I fail to see the economy of the reference to the story of the Prodigial Son. As every one known, the old brother asked for, received and squandered his inheritance in vicious living. He returned, famished and in rags and was fed by the joyful father. The younger brother grew jealous theres and pouted. But what really annoyed the younger was not that his father was harboring an undestrable, but that the fortune that remained would receive a three-figure divisor, with loss to him who had stayed faithfully and vritually at home, since the wanderer had returned.
The West, Indian Negro or the American Negro is an undesirable only in the eyes of those among whom he cojourns. He is to them, indeed, an interloper, when he demands equal rights. The truth is that back in Africa he is regarded with suspicion only in far as he aspires the mammals and the Caucasian "Aliassionaries" whom the Caucasian "Aliassionaries" has at long last grown to distain. As a rule, his superior education makes him a man in his brother's eyes. They imitate him. This must not be, say the empire builder, and so false propaganda must be spread throughout: the countries where Negroes live.
Not Good Enough.
This will not want, Mr. Fearquah. Even if, by any sight of imagination, the native African regards the African West Indian as an undesirable interloper, let me tell you Marvous Garvey, and the U. N. I. A. are correcting this view. He is succeeding in making the native African out adrift from you and yours. You know it. Therefore, the existence of your missionary threatened, you squelal 'Garvoyiam is a huge mistake.'
The Archdeacon's Support.
When Archdeacon Farquhar asserts that the plan for the social and industrial improvement of the Negro race, as advocated by Garvey, is very good, but the political scheme is doomed to ghastly failure, he gives himself away. The schemes formulated by Marcus Garvey for the social, industrial and political improvement of the Negro are intimately bound up, as I see them. Marcus Garvey says in effect, "Real social and, industrial improvement can only come hand in hand with political improvement. The lessons of the past exemplify that. We will, therefore, build up a great republic in Africa." He will not begin by throwing the British, the French, the Spaniards, the Galician and the Portuguese out of Africa, the Archdeacon would have West Indian friends. But the Archdeacon insisted the poor and industrial improvement plan would goodly to save his own face. He would have liked to deceive the movement, and branch, but he desired to be positive. He started out to strike a blow at Garveyism in British Galicia through the medium of the "Daily Chronicle." He ended by boosting it for his diets were all too transparent.
Wake Up, British Guiana!
Even the ultra-churchgoing people of British Guiana are beginning to feel chilly when you white preachers, who have segregation in your churches, prate of "my people." But when the christians of "my people" end, as the one in question with "without hostility to the white race," would you, dear Archdeacon, think it disrespectful if they rocked with the laughter of disgust?
It was on an early morn of a mid-
summer day while on sea that I had
the good fortune of experiencing for
the first time New York City at dawn.
It was the most picturesque scene that
the ore of man can behold.
The morning was cool and calm; everything seemed to have fallen into a trance. Thus, while working upon the wondrous work of nature, which seems to be a mystery to man, I saw the glorious light of daybreak dash upon the great island city, giving her, as it were, the colors of the rainbow. The birds hovering on images around her, and here and there of flag could be seen flying over the skyscraper. The physiognomy of the island city, the largest, in the world, with her lotty buildings and beautiful parks decked in their brilliant garb, created a striking phenomenon. The morning star stood light above her, glorifying her with her celestial lust, that came falling upon her mighty beams from such emerald light as the sun would not endure long the celestial panorama to satisfy my greedy desire. Thus, while I still beheld that grandiose view that broke upon my eye the luminous light of daybreak gradually faded; the morning star ceased to shine; the birds began to sing; thus proclaiming the rising of the sun.
Finally the morning dawned, and the lustrous colors of daybreak, which seemed to have given the oily emanation of an earthly paradise, puzzled away, and the ecstatic paparama faded from sight.
With this impressive view still before my mind's eye, I left the boat, only to be impressed still more by a scene which will live, with me for many years.
It was about nine o'clock, and the "busy bees" of the world's greatest financial center, stepping lightly and swiftly to their respective offices and business places, under the brilliant lustre of the golden sun, gave evidence of the bright sunny day that had dawned upon all.
And as I walked slowly along from the Battery toward South arrow there, I noticed the street corner, including Greater New York Bridge, I bowed awfully amidst the crowd. At this function of the two streets stands prominently the Broad Street Hospital which reveals this accomplishment of a dream, through strenuous efforts and daily tolls of young man known as A. J. Barker Savage, M.D. B. A. etc., who is founder, life member, and acting director of that charitable institution.
Walking south not very far from Broad Street Hospital stand. Seilmen's Church Institute which is a harboring place for scaffairs. Night and day, hundreds of beaman can be seen around that building; some dilling, some seeking employment, while others were making final arrangements to board a steamer ready to leave the city; but all however, conscious of the fine day that had broken upon each one. Just one minute after the bell and struck nine, the official hour, when the big boxes throw open their offices for the little bosses and their hips to begin work, a tremendous rush was heard, and human beings were plunged into a masseurium of confinement born of horror, stupidity, and fear. The test of human reason was put forth as firmly and as steadfastly as upon a field of battle.
It is true that when human beings are plunged into confusion, entiment and fear, regardless of the causes that prompt such a state of affairs, reason

THE RACIAL CON- FLIGT IN AFRICA
THE RACIAL CON- FLIGT IN AFRICA
Unabashedly the most special issue africa, Africa, whether under mandates between the white and the colored races. There are many aspects of this conflict. One of them is the white bread, ie whether, white, nations shall continue to secure their profit from the sale of ingers, the growing of cocoa, the winters of the leads and from the transportation of such goods, as in many cases will still through the weakness of the natives, their actual or virtual emancipation, their deprivation of their ancient lands under the forms of legal prosecution.

UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION
MARGUS GARVEY, President-General
have raised that the reserves be diminished. This instrupcion in war was made by the government, and other measures to order that they may be forced. in work for the white men. When, to meet the labor shortage in south India, immigration from overcrowded India began, every effort was made, in spite of their standing as citizens of the British Empire, to prevent their efficient. License fees were laid on the land, and property prices were dampened. Vigorous protests by the nation and the government in India finally righted some of these wrongs, but the end is not yet.
The Flow Slavery
By for the greatest of the just grafting, which the native Indians have against white governmentals and white invasions is that unjust interference with liberty, with or without forms of contact, which is rightly termed alvay. It was, when the working of great colonies in tropical and semi-tropical climates in America and Africa, and the islands began to require large gangs of laborers able to endure the heat that "civilization" began alvear trading in Africa. The story of the struggle against Negro chattal alvay in the United States, England and the West Indies is well known, but the slowness with which such slavery or its cannibalized form has been evicited in Africa is hardly realized. The slave trade in Africa when the amount of the slaves held II and his financial associates in Belgium, France, America and Great Britain, first depriving the natives of all right to their land and then to the produce of II, forced the natives into the struggle to gather the native-bringing rubbish by digging and mutilation, by holding our women and their children hostages under terror of death or torture.
Indeed, it may be asked whether the elation of the land upon which the native has for ages gained his livelihood by forcing him to labor at the white man's price is not perilously near slavery by wholesale.
Follibrands and Retribution
Automobility is essential of all this corrosive and harrowing performance is that it has steadily been to the permanent disadvantage to the white man. Much underpopulated as Africa is, the supply of labor has been further reduced by the effects of rum drinking, alley driving crickets and stupid proclamation of native rebellia. Moreover, the native naturally does more and better: when washing freely for himself than under compulsion Eric M. North tells us that in German Cameroon the crop plantations, have been worked by forced labor with white overseers. In British Gold Coast, the native owns the farm, writes it himself and cells his wife have planted. He says the forced labor of the plantations is the annual production to three and a half lines that of 1814, but the Gold Coast has, hardened its production to heavily, eight lines. Why, then, has the labor sample been so parallels? Because of the great, immediate, and quick pity, however applied. It is the same pity, however applied. It is the same pity, however applied. It is the same pity,
else, expect that during the white man to british as slaves to these western parts from our dear motherland, Africa. This same idea we have been operating on since the beginning with the Origin. This "Rite right" of the white man, according to his own seeing precedence the right of the strong to oppress the weak; he, we would reach out to exploit Africa also if Japan was not in the gateway. Is it not to be exported from Africa as well as Asia should, some dime of resentment? Is it any wonder that Africa is restless under the white man's rule? Is it not reasonable to expect that Africans will relocate? Is it not reason, and first reason, and what seems to our problem, that at the same international conference of the Negro race in New York in August, 1858 the Hon. Marcus Garvey said: "The bloodless Europe will match its strength against Asia, and thus will be the Negro's opportunity to draw the sword for Africa's redemption."

Miss Coleman has credentials from the French showing she has taken a ten month's course in aviation and is competent to fly. She said:
"With the exception of one Chinese woman, I believe I am the only female representative, of aviation among all the dark, pure people of the earth.

AFTER BREAKFAST LETTERS
TO THE PRESIDENT
No. 8
By Bruce Grit
In my last letter to you, as you will repeat, I cited the XV and XV Amendments, the resembl to the Declaration of Independence, and an extract from an address which you made to a delegation of Negroes who called on 5.2 at the White House recently, in which you were at the palms to outline the reasons for the distribution of the Federal patronage, especially in so far as it relates to the recognition of Negroes in the Southern States, who as citizens and voters in these several states might seek appointment at your hands to Federal offices in these States. Your positive announcement that "You will not appoint any Negro to office in the South" strikes me, as perhaps it will others, as being an unfair advantage which you as the Chief Magistrate of the Nation are taking one of the most important duties of another class of citizens who have questioned the sight of the black citizens to hold office in the States—of the, are citered.
You will doubtless, Mr. President, in the course of your administration appoint hundreds of white men from Southern States to offices in the States of which they are citizens. Your predecessors in office have done it because it has been socially and politically agreeable to the appointee. If you adopt this drastic and discriminative pol诈 toward black men in the South, Mr. President, you will have established a dangerous precedent, which some of our successors in the Presidential office in the future will undertake to crystallize into law, in order to fix six ones: i which white men and black men may hold Federal office. In yielding to the demand of the white South, Mr. President, made by indirection and insnauche, that no Negroes be appointed to Federal offices in the Southern zone which you are now about to establish, Sir, you discover a lenient weakness and an
overwintering desire to be agreeable to a solicitor, of the country which is regaining by diplomacy, and destiny of Northern men in power who visit that section, the prestige and influence which it once wished in the nation, and lost when Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox. In making the Negro the basis of a positively compulsive policy, he was to the white Southern coffees who may not only apply to but hold office in any part of the country, you have arbitrarily abridged one of the sovereign rights of Negro citizens by denying to them the right and the privilege of seeking office within the States where they are citizens. You and your party managers did not refuse the votes of those Negro citizens of the South which were cast and counted and added to the Republican column last November. The President candidates of the Republican party were rather nervous about the Southern Negro vote, and one of them is said to have separated himself from $9,000 to sequestr $q the Negro vote of a State where peaches grow large and are particularly juicy.
In making your decision, Mr. President, to throw the Negro voters of the South to the wo' as, you have shown the Negroes of the entire country where your heart is, and given all of us a splendid demonstration of the axiom, "Blood is thicker than water." But Ultraseism Simpson Grant, who was once President of the United States, would have handled the Southern p prognose problem with a little more firmness and courage than you seem to have shown in your reported decision "not to appoint any Negro to office in the South." General Grant knew the South perhaps a little more intimately than you, Mr. President. He was not a golf player, yet your own president would have fattery and blandishness of crayt white Southern politicians and their cunning, clever female accomplices who have been fighting战 in a different way the Civil War since Lee surrendered. General Grant was President of the United States and of all the people within its limits. You appear to be President of a part of the people only, since you have made in-
vital! Administration, audience, and
class in favor of simpler, which
assumes, the right to dictate, to the
head of the nation what class of
sons shall hold office in a particular
section of our common country.
If you have yielded to this demand, you
have some dreams: teach your
party, Mr. President, in the yacht
aboard of it.
Coming! Coming! Coming!

SUNDAY MORNING
AT LIBERTY HALL
The religious services in Liberty Hall this morning (October 2), besides their usual attractiveness for devotion and scholarly interpretation of the Scriptures, has an innovation in the presence of the Universal Band, which, with the added color to the musical program, has become more efficient as the Black Star Lone Band, deserves encouragement and should be invited every Sunday to assist in the musical program of the morning services. The Rev. Dr. Eason, the American leader of the U. N. L. A., was the preacher, assisted by the chaplain, Dr. Paul. Dr. Eason took his text from Homer in 10 and discussed at length the meaning of the verse, way showed many points to illustrate his relationship with God and how faith in God can make man sumount innumerable battles of life. The choir, with Barris. Barrison Houston, rendered the anthem "Jerusalem" superbly.

NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 8—Funeral bueses the queen of which, in point of imposing grandeur and solemnity and the sincere tribute of honor paid to the memory of the deceased by a vast populace of friend, fraternal and business associates and the public in general, have seldom taken place in this or any other city among colored people, were held Wednesday evening, September 28 over the remains of the pioneer Negro understayer, W. David Brown, world chiefly because of his world chiefly because of years' connection with and activity in the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America.
Owing to the large circle of friends and acquaintances of the deceased, who were legion, the funeral was held in the evening instead of the day, and, in the evening instead of the day, M. E Church in West 18th Floor, Zion A. M. Z Church in West 18th Floor, it was a funeral procession in which many branches of the Odd Fellows—as the subordinate lodges, Households of Ruth, Patriarchies, Grand Masters' Councils—took part, dressed in their respective regalia, the Ruth walking behind the hearts and carrying some of the floral places that had been sent by kind and loving friends. So numerous were the floral gifts that two automobiles were required to carry them, and when taken into the cover, the casket and the Gallilee and the Order of Mosquon also participated in the procession.
Bishop W. L. Lee preached the sermon and the Rev. R. M. Bolden, pastor of the Emmanuel independent Church, made a few remarks after which the Hon. Edward H. Moriah grand master of the church in Iowa, delivered a touching and eloquent eulogy. Rev. W. J. Brown, D. D., pastor of Mother Eldon Church, could not be present owing to his trip abroad in the interest of the church from which he has just returned, the boat having arrived too late. The churches performed their last rites over the remains, Resolutions adduced by these bodies, Telegraphs and letters of condolence, also from prominent individuals who knew the deceased and were his friends, were read. Dr. L. L. Roberta deputy grand master of the Grand Church, also from prominent individuals, "shall I Be Forgetten?" and Carl Brown Cooke of Imperial Lodge No. 17, G. U. O. F. o.s. Fang of "The Holy City."
The body was left in the church until the following morning, when, at 11 a.m., the funeral procession resumed the march and proceeded to Seventh avenue, thence down Seventh avenue to the courtyard, where it halted that the Knights of Pythias Band, which acted as an escort, and the homary pall bearer, consisting of Mesra. Starrett, Howell, Redriques and Perry might stand at attention, forming an alate through which the hearses and the three firemen passed, and the family, the members of the sub-committee of management, the pall bearers and the two flower carriages, passed on to Mr. McLiver Cemetery, where interment took place, the Rev. J. C. Deservner, of Middletown, N. Y., performing the burial rites. The body was carried into the casket lowered into position directly by the side of the wife of the deceased, who departed her life last January.

RACE WAR SEEN IN CLASS CLASH
French Scientist Foura Doom of White Civilization—
Gills Funjun "Amifiable Dream"—Dr. do Lapouge
Presents Views of Emergence Congress
"I have put aside my researches in
medicine and for fifteen years I have
pursued nothing, and I will pursue
matters available for some time,
and they in V. de Lapouge or
Funjun, France, addressing the second
international congress of artemisia of
the American University of Natural History
yesterday. "I have consecrated
the to the thai crises
which is now upon the whole,
and to the colossal disaster which is ruining
toward the white civilization."
de Lapouge is being replaced now by
the infertile race, goes through two classes.
The infertile race, on the one hand,
contain to give that young a short
period of maturation, and on the other,
they are permitted to become
more numerous. On the other hand,
the superior race is restricted by the in-
creasing cost and difficulty of bringing
which is now upon the whole,
and to the colossal disaster which is ruining
toward the white civilization.
Dr. de Lapage was introduced by Prof. Henry Fairfield Gahore of Columbia University and the American Society of Natural History, president of the Society of Natural History, who translated, said Prof. Gahore, and later, after Dr. de Lapage had finished his address and the apologies had submitted, Prof. Gahore added: "This series of incombustible facts from Dr. de Lapage, the scene in infant Ninseck, when on the wall appealed the words 'Mene Tekal Uphareng.'"
"The thought that a number of different races may be mixed and fused simply into one uniform race, is not the case," Dr. de Lapage, who spoke in French, "is an amiable dream of the philanthropist who totally ignorant of anthropology. Races may quite easily accept the same language and may change their religions and customs, and may be different from the ones they cannot change the shape of their skull, their aim or their character.
Inferior Replacing Superior
"For the millions of years since there have been man and women, racial intermixture by intermarriage has been going on, and the mathematical expectation would be that an infinite graduation of racial characteristics should now be found. This is not true, however. Many characteristics cannot occur in intermediate forms and some may be linked with each other. Some of which do emerge temporarily into existence are eliminated in the struggle for survival.
"Any population now is made up of a number of mixed races, and the race is not necessarily indicated by the nationality of this individual. Anthropological analysis, however, reveals the existence of a superior white race and of interior white races. It is this superior race which, by virtue of the superior race, which by virtue of the positions of social responsibility in education, finance, science, religion."
This superior race according to De
attainment of the order, including also occupied the positions of National Grand Auditor and National-Grand Director. In this the largest and oldest fraternal organization among college graduates, he distinguished himself by his disciplined national qualities, and by his extraordinary devotion and activity in the interests of the order. He was one of the most well-known and popular of his grand officers, and had he lived through two years for election to the position of the Grand Master, the highest office in the gift of the order.
de Zayouna, in being reprimed, now for the infidelity, goes through two pleasures. And infidelity races, on the one hand, are contient to give their young a short period of learning and training and then they become young better than the others. And some they are permitted, by becoming more numerous. On the other hand, the superior race is restricted by the increasing cost and difficult bringing its young to the full development of mental equipment suitable for its race, and therefore the superior race undertakes fewer children, he holds.
"We are now," continued the speaker, "at the ethic crisis of the superior race. Two out of three of the young man perished during the war in Europe. Yet we are confronted by the fact that the supplier of petroleum, coal and oil, the finding of equivariance, and the piles in a tank which only the superior race can undefend. The superior race has guns so far toward these equivances already that we can no longer speak of the atom as indivisible, and in other ways our civilization stands at edge of infinite development which will never over before and intelligence more brilliant if these things are to be controlled."
"Otherwise we may go back to that he said. He waved toward a painting behind him on the wall of the museum it represented a landscape in the glacial period.
"The ruins of the great civilizations of the earth," he went on, "stand as a civilization still for having carried a civilization still for things were possible. Then it collapsed for lack of the intellectual elements of the superior race.
"Be not mistaken," he warned. "The war of class is a war of races. There must be more of the superior race. It must be made more abundant. The war has made death blow at Europe, but we look with hope at America to put this theory into effect."

of which they are not citizens and interfered with the internal affairs to the Republicans of Georgia, overturning their regular organization and appointing men to act for the people without their advice and consent.
All of this was done to carry out a definite, unholy and wicked end—and that end was to deprive a million and a half American citizens of their rights because they were black men—and to accomplish this hellish purpose these interopers, who claim to represent the wishes of the President, struck down the white Republicans as well as the black Republicans. The black Republicans were entered by Col O. M. Dukes, a white Republican and a Georgian, Miller of Minnesota, who was acting as chairman, makes him sit down, declaring that he was raising the race question. At the very same time he (Killer) was trying to eliminate the Negroes of Georgia from the party, and did so far as she was able.
inasmuch as they have done it unto the least of these, your brethren, they have done it unto you. We call upon you to rebuke this high-ranking leader, the Republican leaders are attempting to do—to eliminate 8,000,000 in the South from politics at the behest of the Democrats and illly white.—The Atlanta Independent.
A COLLAPSIBLE TRIANGLE
Sir: Please permit me space in your wonderful paper to give my opinion of an article which appeared in the Evening Sun of Monday, September 5. "Africa for Africans is Not Negro Slogan." The article attracted my attention because it carries the three first letters of the alphabet, if "A" is omitted, viz. "Belgrade," the Haitian deputy; Candace of Guadalupe and Diagua of Senegal. These three gentlemen to me are more a joke than anything else; they are more like three spirits speaking for one man, Diagua and Candace declared: "We do not hate the white face; what we seek is慈怜 and development. Our nation and development depends upon relations with the white. We would lose everything if we were lost to Africa." Candace pointed out that Liberia is less developed than the French colonies that have black population. "If we were asked to choose, I would resign. I am black, but I am French first." Ballagarde, the Haitian corporeal, corroborated the attitude of the deputies. The point that is not to me is that, with these gentlemen must put out that they do not have the white face. That has nothing to do with Africa for the African race that they want to show the white race that they have. The Title love them. That they may help me do so if they care to. If they are, they will have the white face that Darrye holds.

leave that to the white race to decide for themselves. To me Garvey's heart is figured in his tongue, and I will only take what he says.
Candace said, "What we seek is conciliation and collaboration." Why it is quite all right to seek, but that will not do; it is what you get that count! The white race will not think to collaborate with any race that is not capable independently to develop itself. If the African race is not capable of developing any part of Africa, as the Anglo-Saxon has done in South Africa, and if what he has gained from the white race will lose it if by himself now in the name of goodness can Candace attack America's attitude toward the colored races and ex-President Wilson's attitude in the race of humanity? Why it stands out just this, "Historical equality" and "Quality." Quality is a standard whether with a race or anything else; every race and thing might have its own quality; those qualities might not be uniformed and development might be necessary, or, in other words, get or make your own "E" added to the "Quality." That is what you call "measure up," and you will have no refusal to use the American phrase, "You have got the goods; deliver them." The trial has fallen short of a real crito of Garvey, and even Garvey's old crito of his method agrees with his high ideal. Most of them double the possibility, but the "D, C, D" tries admit the inferiority of their race and yet best: collaboration. The days of collaboration in the days of "Duffy" and his great power will have to be put upon another and even greater impetus if we are to take Africa for the African. Do we that we must be quite do well, be strong and as an white power put it? There are states who have not be

Not failure, but low aim, its crime:

failure, generally it should be possible to finance good, good enterprises. As many of fact numerous enterprises are financed that cannot be designated "good." Still further, many enterprises are financed that are not only bad, but absolutely fraudulent. Failures to finance enterprises are, however, frequent, even when the general conditions are favorable. Such failures can only be ascribed to a disregard and ignorance of the principles and procedure of successful financing.
The treatment of the subject is almost necessarily discursive. In no other way could the purpose of the writer be so all illuminated the writer feels, no analogy is required for the adoption of this style. An enterprise, as contemplated by the writer, is any undertaking that may be financed. It may be an invention, a mine, a business, a combination of commercial activity. It may be a development proposition. It may be a going concern, or it may be something merely demanding liquidation. If there is a proposition on one side seeking money for its purposes from the writer, it is an enterprise as here considered.
As to what enterprises can be financed, it may be said broadly that money may be raised for anything capable of being utilized for purposes of profit, or which man with money may be used for purposes of profit. The nature of the enterprise—ethical considerations apart—is of minor importance, its success as a means of raising money for its own operations or for the benefit of its promoters being mainly a matter of preparation for the success of an knowledge an invention, untrained, unpatented and existing mainly on paper was financed to the extent of $50,000. Further, a large portion of this money was placed in the inventor's pocket. The inventor and all this was done solely on the unsupported statements of this same inventor as to the value and conditions of his invention. In this case the man representing the enterprise honestly believed the statements in his works were true and splits was purely a matter of failure—not of works.
Nor is this an exceptional case. This is a matter of common observation that investors will, if properly encouraged thereto, lend their financial assistance just as cheerfully and even more freely to some impossible scheme for the extraction of gold from the waters of the sea, or to the development of some remote and non-oward or non-essential mine. The mining industry, or to the establishment of some solid industry in their own neighborhood.
It is true that the promotion of illusive schemes, such as those referred to, sometimes brings the promoter's career to an abrupt termination, in the sententiary, and for this and other reasons should be deprecated. The reasons should be more specific, such swindling enterprises, however, even much knowledge of human nature are often good and should be noted and applied, as far as may properly be done. In the promotion of honest undertakings. 'Beauty undarned' is not usually appreciated in the present day, but it is a statement of the facts without comment or elaboration may. if the facts and sufficiently good and the men behind the enterprise are financially strong, be effective and the best presentation that could be made. Usually, however, an enterprises so presumed to be successful, presentation. Something more attractive is needed if it is to be financed.
Just how for the gliding of refined gold may be carried in promotion without overstepping the bounds between legitimate statement and false representation is perhaps open to debate. There is, however, no question that the enterprise must be made or married by the manner and conditions of its presentation. An effective presentation and successful financing of an enterprise are not usually possible unless the views—often very divergent—of both the men with the enterprise and the men with the weight. Therefore this article treats its subject, as far as possible, from the standpoint of both parties.
"To all impervious "did-binding of an enterprise does not seem difficult. Indeed, to those unfamiliar with the state of the art or "industry" it appears quite easy to secure a good enterprise for the requisite location. There is money available in the world for all that is to be done. It cannot be left idle; it must go into something and, therefore, if one has a meticulous enterprise it should not be more difficult to sell an interest in it to this or any other possession of material value. That this is not an uncommon impression is shown by the compact inquiry in entire good faith in the work of financing enterprise, the work of financing enterprise, the work of financing enterprise, which the man with a good understanding may finance the enterprise, just as he would want a business through a real estate agent; be it his business through a commission may thank.
It is not difficult forுதs, a very full business man of proved integrity takes up, almost not, an unexcellent, too into it. I carefully and then invest the own money to it and invite his firm to make an association to do the same. It is the enterprise is suitable, and the time is right, he will dispise of this offered interest with ease, much more readily than he could negotiate the sale of his house or find a purchaser for a surplus of good.
The great majority of new enterprises, however, are not originated or primarily owned by men of this character. Such men, as a rule, are very fully occupied with their own gireults. They are not devoting restless rights to the invention of novel mechanisms. Neither are they delecting their own avocations for the discovery of new lines of industry, nor seeking enterprises to be developed, nor roaming wildly in search of mines, quarries and other hidden treasures of the earth. They are already profitably busy and usually only take up much enterprise as come to them naturally or are urged upon them.
For this reason a large proportion of the enterprise brought forward are in the hands of young experienced man, over enthusiastic and endly inkling in judgments of investors, often with a great sense of responsibility practicable; of unsuccessful business men warped by their reverses and snatching at straws; of promoters, more or less unscrupulous and unreliable; of adventurers without money or reputation and anxious only to turn away without regard to the means employed.
Add to this the further facts that men are but "indifferent honest" and speaking generally, too exuberant for the success of their particular undertakings to be over exact in their representations; the often detached, often detached, often impossible undertakings "touched up" to appear as golden opportunities that their terms are as remarkable as their offerings, not uncommonly requiring that the proposed capitalistic victim shall put in all necessary funds, take the promptly to demonstrate the control of both enterprise and money, and the hesitation of the men with money even to investigate, much less, embark in "unaccredited" enterprise, may be readily undertaken. All the misrepresentations chiliany and of the men with money demand resets to the very great injury and disadvantage of legitimate propositions. It explains much of the difficulty of financing and should be very clearly understood by the man who has an enterprise to present. It also explains to some extent the suspicions, exactions and often most unpleasant demands of the man with money.
Indeed, it may be said in defense of the capitalist, that while he does very frequently take advantage of the ignorant, the unsusceptible or necessitious inventor or owner, he is as ideal as any other man, for that for every man with an enterprise out" by his financial backer, it would be impossible to discover a hundred man with money who have been drawn into unprofitable or impossible underwriting or by even more migrant fraud. In conclusion, it may be said the ideal condition for the financing of an enterprise involve a good proposition, well presented at the right time to people who have money to invest, by a man who commands their business and makes them pay the necessary conditions the financing of an enterprise. The more widely these conditions are departed from, in whole or in part, the more difficult the matter b.comes. The great secret of successful financing in then to approximate conditions—in fact or in appearance—closes as the actual o'ditions will permit.

BRITISH ARROGANCE AND AGGRESSION AS VIEWED BY AN ANGLO-SAXON
Editor Boston American, Boston, Mass. GI—am a law-making citizen and a veteran. I simply write to ask a question. In Great Britain running the United States Congress' it seems so. The world ought to rise and rise and a step to Great Britain's greed, her tyrannical imposition, robbing and thieving. Great Britain is in a state of degeneracy. Her degenerates are a lot of vampires and parasites, who are sucking the life's blood of the poor, defenseless people in the world. The West Indies are an example of English rule. The people in these countries are overtaxed and starving to support' a lot of vampires and parasites calling themselves English royalty. I have personally seen and observed these things. The majority of Englishmen, bring that they are superiors in knowledge and are superior in my opinion they can make fools of the American politicians whenever they want to.
I have traveled around the world a good deal and know from experience what I say to be so. A very large majority of Englishmen are born with a graphite, grab-all wrist and a cowrote, one if not all, that want everything they need. I tell them they will steel it. An Englishman, not that, they are simple bulls. They will steel a large majority of them will want and their government will back, then up in the Great British did in the Hearn with Great Britain would have robbed Vatican Rome. Great Britain would have robbed the Holy Roman Empire. The President told John F. Kennedy he had begged him.
WHY WE SHOULD READ NEGRO NEWSPAPERS
(Geocostia The Egyptian)
There are those among us who never read a Negro newspaper. If you ask them why, they will tell you that there is never anything in them to interest them. They will poshify tell you that this a waste of money to subscribe to one. Well, for the sake of argument, we will say that there are some papers of our race that are not very newy, because of the fast that they are made, because of the fact that they have gone has gone the rounds of the news world for weeks before they appear in them. But is that the case of all Negro papers? No; there are some that are newy and instructive as many of the papers from other hands who have the facilities and wealth on their side.
But aside from that part of it, where will you find an account of the doing of the race if you do not read the papers of the race? Will you find anything of any consequence concerning the front page of some Negro who was lynched for "harming" a white man or else for daring to strike a white man who struck him first? If a Negro does a deed of bravery it is passed over in silence, or also alluded to in a light veil, and a joke made of it. He is sometimes seen in our white papers the mention of some Negro man or woman; but it is from some one with whom the negro Negro was associated as a servant for a number of years, and when death comes, the employer writes an obituary notice, and winds up with a dona, thou good and faithful servant." In order to find out what the Negro is doing, you have to read the Negro papers, as some are some hate to do. Though they are only featured in the criminal part of the white man's paper, the Negras are living their own lives, performing deeds of kindness and darling, writing their names on the roll of Rama.
Not long ago a Negro student of Harvard made a record in the athletic field that was never made in the history of the world. A young man by the name of Gourdine from Florida made the record jump of over 102 feet, setting a new world record for years to come and perhaps for all time. The nearest to that was 15 feet some inches made in a foreign land about twenty years ago by a white man. Have you the alightest mention of that event in any of the white papers you happen to be reading? We mean a white paper. Had Gourdine committed the same act in the country's greatest college, his name would have been heralded abroad the land, with uncomplimentary editors about the natural brute of the Negro coming out in spite of his education. But, since the Negro mastered all cameras, regardless of race or color, they have not one word, rather than one word, stand at the head of the athletic list just the same.
The president of the only Negro republic on earth is in this country, and has been for the last three millennia. We refer to President King, of Liberia, Africa. President King paid an official visit to the White House and saw and and saw with the President of the United States who would call upon another if he were in his country. He also called upon Secretary Hughes. Both the President of the United States and Secretary Hughes returned the call of the Negro president as they should have done. Do you ever remember having read it in any of the white papers you have been reading for years. We understand us to mean that you must not read the papers of the other man. You must read his papers to know what he is saying and doing. As little as you might think of it, he is reading Negro papers to see what the Negroes are saying and doing. He keeps up with us in his own papers and in ours. He knows our good points as well as our bad; but he does not interest us in good points. He is anxious to see us this, except as his servant.
If you want to keep abreast of the progress of the Negroes, get his newspapers and read them. Reads of the success they are having as well as their failures. By so going you will help solve the race problem—mixchange.
Amelia and the Man
Dr. Henry Fairchild Osborn is quoted as saying, before the annual Congress of Englewood that, the United States is beginning to realise that education and environment do not greatly alter racial values, and that in the meeting, pot the vices of the commingled races are perverted, as surely as they virtified. Perhaps this is true, in more, more ways. The people, that the people, of this nation would prove greatly superior to the various stocks from which they are derived. The real service of it, mailing affidavit in its name, of breaking down national and, v. i. prejudices and barriers by communal, the various human strives that have bound our country. This is the all-around life, a life of stability, and surely accommodating. And Thomas Jefferson and constituent states may have been
show that they are hypocritical in their development, and exaggerating the difficulties of the individual. For three centuries Europe has been sending its an unkind stream of immigrants, person of great them, who came to belter their condition in the United States. In countries they suffered from male-mutrition cold, overwork and overcrowding; have, with a real chance, they have, with exceptions of course, made good. The two million troops which the United States sent to Europe during the war of 1812, are the militaries for their splendid physical and vitality. But the tall, muscular, agile American is the product of better living conditions rather than cf better racial values. Of the various stocks which are used in the American people it is that which has contributed more than cf portions share to our civilization whether statement or go.
ness men or educators or artisans traced their ancestry, some of them to the English settlers at Jamestown and Plymouth, some to the S-16-Irish immigrants; some to the Hungarian, some to the German, and many, very many, to several or to all of these people. The englishmen may or may not be able to improve the human stock; but nothing can be more certain than that this country from the earliest colonial days has been improving the immigrants that come to its shores, has been converted ragged,侵农, and Europeans into intelligent, vigorous, useful citizens—New York Man.
THE "DAY" OF GENESIS
THE "DAY" OF GENESIS
(By Wm. Pickens—the Asso. Negro Press.)
"And the evening and the morning were the first day." But if creation was the first day, a relative length of such a day? Recent investigations of the astronomers might serve as a good Bible commentary.
There are DAYS in this universe that 100,000 years long, as a year is edge to edge of the universe of worlds so small to be a distance of about one million "light years." that is, it takes light one million years to cross the universe, although light travels at the rate of 40,000 miles in a second. When we see the universe, we see more than the lightning, one million years to cross the universe, we state in words a distance which must represent the symbols on paper, but which the human mind cannot group in any sort of confinement; conceive is limited to the small experiences of this little world, the earth.
On the outer edges of this universe are great worlds which turn on axids, as does the earth—but while a point one mile from the center of such a world slowly than does a point in the earth one mile from its center, yet a point on the surface, say on the equator, of such a great world must move at an inconceivable rate. Some , these, point on the surface may come around to the same position in space only once in every 50,000 or even 100,000 years. While the surface of such great orbits moves at such tremendous speed, points as near their center as the earth's surface cavely slow. One turn constitutes a day, so that a day on the giant world may be 100,000 years (earth years). Verily, a day is a hundred thousand years, and a hundred thousand years is "to why should the spirit of mortal be proud."
KU KLUX VIOLENCE IN THE OPEN:
Since the beginning of the exposure of the Klu Klu Klan by the World the officials of that body have maintained in statements and interviews that the Klan is orderly, honest, law-abiding, violent and working peacefully toward its own brand of 100-per-cent Americanism.
The current issue of the Searchlight, the official organ of the Klu Klu Klan, tells a different story. Carl P. Hutcheson, a writer, member of the Board of Education of Atlantic, contributes a leading article which is a challenge to the law and a declaration of hostilities against every harmful agency criminal to the Klan and its methods. Characterizing the revelation of Zion concerning Male Women, the Women Division of the Klan as "murder-reeves, murder of the worst type," it calls for revenge in such issues as the following:

Today the American carries an anthole editorial from the pen, one of the strongest journalists in America, the Hon. Ben J. Davia, of Atlanta, Ga., the editor of the Atlanta Independent. No one can read this treatment; of almost important subject without it, bringing his mind into a. refractive vision. He can read the principles of the Republican party can bring to bear pressure enough to influence the national committee into elections reflecting discredit upon the breast and fundamental principles of the party and bring upon the heads of the sponsors of that party the disproportion of all thinking men, it is indeed a time for serious reflection. Yet, it is but one of the signs of the time that the party is disregarding for the past decade the white man's ability that he and he alone must reign supreme without regard to the rights of others.
We contend not with any race or people for what they have built upon their own ability and sacrificing, effort to advance in the preception of civilization, any people equally entitled to full credit for the achievement of the advantages accruing from its own labor. If the white man has done everything for the accomplishments of which America can boast, and if he has created the Heaven up: further the political construction of a powerful nation, and he has done this without any assistance from any other people, then we would willingly lay down the contestant's weapons and hall him as chief and an monarch that does not bear out this hypocrisy. The Negro has done his part also in the working out of the destiny of the nation, and he has contributed to its present status among the millions of the earth. That is why he contends that the earth is the result of its resulting from his labors. He would be a fool otherwise.
Then when the "Negro out of polite" movement and "let the white man lead" propaganda reaches the marble state of the White House itself, it gives room for a Court in the white man's place of the white "infinite" institutions. Does he mean that his whole forces are to be mobilized in the North and in the South in a concerted army for the purpose of the fostering the rightful and reasonable ambitions of a mask and thumbnail of a white man, or that maybe be of the best possible service to their country? It certainly looks that way. Then is we are reading "the signs" aright, and is our white brothers may have withdrawn and desired, either by right of conquest or any of the "hollisterian" principles of "getting what you want" without regard to the methods used we see against before, just after the ballot is taken from our hands, the actual "exact" condition of physical

That is the most present of an界事 and especially by the fourth one making a fair is to the north of an other national point which is only a one-time national point which is the most important to the great human life in the 22nd World War and a significant rejuvenation, and with the co-operation of the United States and the United Kingdom, the lead in this great battle of the human war is the most important to the great human life in the 22nd World War and a significant rejuvenation.

A taste of "actual-physical, slavery" is the illness of any man, and it's very well to be in the case of them. Are you good to be in other places with it? Gold should be the right place.

By the United, Fruit Company
The Preston Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in Cuba has been having a hard time under the depotic and firm rule of the local managers of the United Fruit Company of that place.
These men—Howley and Hogger have greatly shut down the association without rhythm or reason, though the Governor of the Oriente and the Alcalde of Preston have given their consent for the association to carry on.
No meetings have been held since August, 1831. Members have been turned out of their jobs and houses which they rent, while others have been ill-treated. Vithous rules or lawfew have been stuck up in houses, which prevent companies from having any employment whatever.
LADY VINTON, DAVIS ADDRESSES CAMBRIDGE, MASS., DIVISION 124
The Cambridge Division, No. 124. U. N. I. A., was honored on Sunday and Wednesday, September 25 and 22, by the presence of Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, international organizer of the U. . . I. A. A. Other speakers on Wednesday were Mrs. Anna Shields, president of the Ladies Division; Mr. Wilfred L. Griffith, associate secretary; Mr. William A. Corbin, general secretary, and Mr. Williams, executive secretary of the Boston Division, who made an eloquent appeal for subscriptions to the Black Star Line.
On Sunday the hall was filled to capacity and those who were fortunate enough to hear Lady Davis were held spatbound by the magic of her voice and the excellence of her oration.
Lady Davis said in part: "Mr. President, officers and members of the Cambridge Division, I count it a pleasure and a privilege to be with you this afternoon. I have been quite busy during my stay in Boston, but having a letter from Mr. Garvey asking me to visit the Cambridge Division, I wrote your president and notified him I would be over. I first met Mr. Garvey during my tour in the West Indies as an locustist. I also had the privilege of to the islands on a ship of the Black Star Line. I can still picture the enthusiasm of our people. Before we docked I could hear the hurrahs as our ship came in, flying the colors of the Red, the Black and the Green.

that the U. N. I. A. is opening the doors of opportunity. He, who would free himself must strike the blow. This war has instilled the awakening of the Negro. The blow was struck at the psychological moment and the Negro is asking for his economical and intellectual independence. Mr. Garvey is a man chosen by God to lead his people, he is more than a Moslem, he is the saving, he means to save them in spite of themselves. There are Negroes who have been inoculated with the fever and lost their race identity. We have as much request to pound there under false pretense. We are struggling for the same thing, no matter where we may come from, and such prejudice should not survive. It has no given the Negro's breast. We have joined the U. N. I. A. because it has given hope to a hopeless race; there were no outlet for the Negro. They were taught that Africa was a land of cannibals. The European nations are looking to Africa to build up their treasures, but under the leadership of Mr. Garvey we mean to redeem it by Negroes themselves. That same bravery that fought on the field of Flanders, that fought in Mesopotamia, will redeem Africa. Let us join the ranks of the U. N. I. A. buy shares in the Black Star line, so that we may take passage and go to Africa and rally to the clairion call of "Africa for the Africans, at home and abroad."

chapman said, in part, that this passage referred to God's closest person, who was undergoing a period of long war, taken in Egypt at last God sent them a fallower in the person of Momma. His servant: "He said that no one the commander was given to Mosel the people were free. In this instance, if the 500,000,000 Negroes will lain to the call of Garvey, they will be free from nominally, socially, intellectually, and financially, and they will also have their beds in the sun. The service was brought to *m* close by singing the Ethiopian national anthem; and the scene was changed. All that early hour of the day, 6:32 a.m., people were soon wending their way to the grounds, given for the occasion by the Tola Railroad Company, to make ready for a good time. The Refreshment Committee was first on the grounds, and was able to serve coffee by 7 o'clock.
As the smaller hours grew larger so grew the crowd, and when the sun was in full meridian everything was in full swing. Games of all sorts were engaged in, and as the band (which had been got here for the occasion) discoured sweet music, the young, middle-aged and old danced and gambled to their heart's content, with the flag of the Red, Black and Green floating in the breeze. The day having been exceptionally fine the folks loltered on the grounds until 6 p. m., when they dispersed for a white, to be reassembled at the theatre hall to close the day in dancing, where, at about 4 o'clock next

Mr. John Branctis, the chief structurist, and his assistants did not find it an easy task in serving the nice things to their many applicants, while Mr. Kennedy and staff must be congratulated for order maintained among the hundreds of Negroes on the ground of the plight of the African heads of the Wife Refined Company, operating here, readily gave the day off to the Negro employees when applied for.
It was only in a few instances where a few employees could not get off, owing to the nature of their work, much to the regret of all concerned. Those who did not go purposely absented themselves in many cases.

PUERTO BARRIOS, GUATEMALA STAGES GREAT WELCOME TO DEPUTY BOURNE RETURNING FROM 2D INTER NATIONAL CONVENTION OF NEGROES
Editor The Negro World,
At West 135th St. New York.
Dear Sir:
Please allow me space in your most
valued paper to report to the parent
body and the entire membership of the
U. N. L. a. the great welcome accorded
our deputy, Mr. C. S. Bourne, on his
return to us from the Second International
* invention which was held in
Liberty hall, as also the great part
which the Universal Negro Improvement
Association played during the
celebrations of the Centenary of the
Independence of Central America.
Our deputy arrived here on the B. S. B.
ship while he was on the sea and was
met at the docks by a special com-
mittee delegated for the occasion, and
after the official greetings to him from
the officers of the government our deputy was marched under the banners of the Red, Black and Green right on to
the ship. We were very hearty
welcome was accorded him.
On the morning of the 18th insti-
centenary Day, a grand procession was staged by the government's military and civil authorities, and the U. N. I. A. was in attendance, displaying fully our colors the Red, White, and Blue, which were entertained royally, as well as the council, by the government officials, and under the distinguished directorship of our two worthy leaders. His Honor the High Commissioner Bourne and President L. A. Davies, we took first place in all the ceremonies that were carried on during the festivities which lasted for the entire week.
On the 18th inst. (C. N. I. A. Day), which was especially dedicated to us, we staged a grand parade. Our Black Cross Nurses were in full uniform under the direction of the lady president, Mrs. Amy Dronauer, the guidance and counselor, our worthy colleague, Mr. S. E. Taylor, and we met it through the principal streets of the town and thence to the municipal peace where our deputy and high commissioner, Hon. C. B. Burne, delivered a scholarly speech to the governor of the Port in the city, and to the president if the most courteous mankind, offering his unconditional supply to the association.
On Sunday, the 18th, a great mass meeting was staged at the Cosmopolitan Church, where our deputy delivered his official report of the Second International Convention, and every member had a dignified manner in which our deputy explained so satisfactorily the works of the convention, and his great news has filled every member with new inspiration, and I am sure the energy of every man is strong. We are President General and also our Commissioners. Our mission is making the U. N. I. A. and its called corporation a perfect unit. I am sure there are very few deputies among us, and if there are no, we intend to wipe them out. We are sure that with the help of our deputy, they and our local co-workers like Daures, Bourne and President Davis, and our other executive officers, along with the spirit of the members and officers of the various divisions in Guatemala, more especially Los Amatitos branch, shall serve be in the line of the first standard bearers of African adoption.
And when the colors of the Red, Black and Green shall have been unified on Africa's hills, and the well done is being pronounced to the remaining pioneers of Negro liberty, every division in Guatemala shall be given prominence and in importance must through the Negro World give three cheers for our worthy President General, three cheers for the deputai in convey on who save and the form of our liberty, and three cheers for Commissioner Bourne, our most worthy representative. The addresses presented to Commissioner Bourne on the night of his official report, also his representative speech in Spanish, Kindly publish same in your very first issue.
Assuring you of the unlimited supply of our entire emblem and obedient servant of that your humble and obedient servant.

We admire you, you, in this official way as our honorable date and delegate, we colonize in direct, thanking the Competent and Honorable God who has so destined that you moved from an honorable and respectfully accompanying, the high executives to whom from a little bit of time in your own role, representative, and defender, also all round, understand the way time straightens the universal journey, landing all safely in New York in time to make our Second Convention a great success.

WELCOME ADDRESS TO HOU
C. S. BOURNE IS PRESENTED
BY PRESIDENT L. A. DAVIS
To His Honor the Deputy, Vic-
President, Chairman of the Honor-
able Advisory Board, Lady
Denise. Officers and Members of
the U. N. A. and A. C. L. of the Guat-
mala Division Under Charter No. 84.
I am, indeed, pleased to see you all
here this evening.
We have gathered to welcome our Brother
whom we had delegated to the Second
Great Convention of Negroes to represent
us—the Negroes residing in Guatemala. You will all please note that he did not leave these shores to represent the few Negroes residing in Puerto Barries only, but the whole of Guatemala. In his representation he not only represented those of you who are friends of the great cause, he not only represented his friend, but his enemies likewise. When I say he, I want you all to know that I speak not of personal enemies, but enemies of the U. N. L. A. and A. C. L. he represented that Negroes with whom he stands and watch until victory is won, then you will, all then victory is won, to march in the grand parade with the victoria. He represented those of you who will not now buy your shoes in the Black Star Line, until you hear that dividends are being paid at the rate of at least ten dollars per man. He represented you also whom, though registered members of the U. N. L. A. and A. C. L. would not even pay your fees to help pay expenses of the delegate and he being so broadminded a man, doing good for all alike, has come out more than conqueror. He left us as Deputy to the international office on the man he was commissioned to us as Commissioner of State Organizer, having jurisdiction not only over all Guatemala, but British Honduras may also. Whatever his detriment may say, but as you all should know, it is an impossible thing to keep a man of standing worth down. It is not possible to keep a man of bottom of the sea it will float to the top again, and so it has been with the man who we have had representing us.
He has been a star in Nigerian performance; he has been a legislator among the legislators, and proud we are of him; proud to have him amongst us once more; proud to be led by such a man; proud to know how his voice and will not go astray. Your Honor, I, as president, in the name of the full membership of this Puerto Hurricane Division of the U. N. I. A and A. C. L. under Charter No. 34, welcome you home; thrice welcome home—welcome to wife and children, welcome to Guatemala and welcome to our Liberia Hall. Honored by him, it be known unto you that since you left us, in company with His Excellency and Lady H. V. Davia our Liberty Hall has never seen some of the faces that you see here tonight; whether some were seen here or not, the banner of the Red, Black and Green, the future will surely show, but I may as well now plainly tell it out.
To the doubters, the desertions to the mean sneak, fool Negro, who will allow themselves to be devoted by this foe of the Negro race, those few words. When success shall have been achieved by this great called all Negroes will be partakers of said success, and, in like manner, if through your treachers to your race you cause this, our grand endeavor to, fail, you, the toward, will feel the sting of the high a great deal more than us, for we will be proud to die defending our and your eats, while you blinded trattains will arrive and, plead for mercy and note will be consoiled to you; you all will die un- honored and, unaging, curing your decolives, who will then stand by meeting at your cowardly faces. Some, now, brethren of the race, do not be fooded any longer. Have you all not been graduated in the same university, have you yet, not yet, to know, that except you, help your race to succeed all the success you personally may achieve until the end of the next year will you come like a shakes in your mouth? Awake to, eat, condomshipers. Oh, my brother, awake to this realism, Oh, my sister, come forward, and be mean, come forward, and be the唯一 known that in 2200 we have a goal
and trying through ignorance, through cowardice, through being fooled by those of an alien alien, those of you who disregard your honored mother, who would be white and fear every man born, white and fear every man born, white and fear every man born, white and fear every man born, and know that if you eat in this cause you will not have long to wait before vicious, like a dove, will sight on our most beautiful fish, with the colors of the Red, the Black and the Green. Can we, whose souls are lighted with intelligence, permit the special unnightlight to this evening glorious day more quickly than we did, do not be like the Jews of old, who never knew of the Saviour's birth until he shepherded, while wise men from the East were journeying months before His birth, to arrive in time to welcome Him on earth.
We now await your official report with anxiety. You left us to do your best for us, and we fully believe that you have done all which mortal man could do, and now I have the honor to lend you my love, your love, your loyalty, welcoming you again among us under the Red, the Black, and the Green. L. A. DAVIS.
EAST-END LIVISION 102
NEWPORT NEWS, Va. Sept. 22—Everybody here is so delighted over the outcome of the meetings and their desired effect upon the people that everywhere the only thing that you can see is a smile. The people are coming to realize and to appreciate the truthfulness of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Under the present industrial slump, which seems to be fait by everybody, our people are showing a delightful interest in the cause for which we are struggling with "One God, one aim and one destiny."
On our meeting night, last Wednesday a week ago, some of our other members who were late in family to the meeting, had to stand for the rest of the evening. They claimed that this, or their interests were due to the fact, that on their arrival at the hall they saw so many people there that they thought the Knu Klux Klan was trying to play a trick on them. So they remained outside until they could steady their nerves. Of course, no one did this. However, for some of our members to show their keen appreciation at the results of their efforts here they had to tell a big one, purely in a spirit of good fun.
Last Sunday, September 15, was another banner day with us. Even though it was quite warm, our hall was almost filled. This mass of people turned out to hear Mr. S. A. Owens of No. 8 division of the international convention that just closed its $1-day meeting in New York City. Indeed, it was a source of pleasure to have this young man of talent and interest to portray as vividly to the happenings at the convention. Mr. Owens is in possession of a keen sense of humor and worth. We wish to say to Mr. S. A. Owens that Division No. 103 of East End holds out to him a standing inyation. Our latchstring is on the outside and the door stands ajar. The only thing that he has to do is push the door open and warm and heartfelt welcome. I come to see us any time.
We are greatly in need of young men of this type. Men with cool heads and deliberate minds. Several members and friends who have heard Mr. Owens whose subject was "I There Any Good in Organization" have told us about loyalty and its final results on the outcomes of things in general. But Mr. Owens' discussion of the boe's love for his queen opened their eyes to many alliant facts pertaining to life. Mr. Owens was at his best while discussing this subject, for he was on familiar ground. In the past, he was the boe's industry in very much evidence, therefore those of us who had not the opportunity, to see this industry upon a large scale learned much, not only from the sense of a practical illustration, but from a means whereby we can talk about the sub-
joet with some degrees of intelligence.
The discussing of the subject And the report of Mr. Owenx. A man who brought clarity to the minds of All present that we are sight. The U. N. Y. A. the A. G. L. and all affiliated organizations hold up before the Messy everywhere the fact that they are the only sources of information that can be used in any field, works as a. Protections against those who aim to place a stamp of disapproval upon every thing done by the Negro. The noose at industrial and economical oppression is already being used with such suppression, so when we are Negro, everywhere, swinging, the use of indifference right and left and striking, obeying, nothing. Then the thought, readily comes to our minds, that
Editor of The Negro World, 86 W. 153th Street, New York City; U. N. L. A. and A. G. L. Kenggej
Dear sir-Permit my space in your valuable organ to vote the opinion of this branch of the U. N. L. A. and A. G. L. In these remote parts of the motherland here in Ludderia of what seems to be a tyrannical system of serfdom and slavery, to come out to some if not at least of the race of Negroes. In Ludderia, or at least the Protectorate, so-called, and in South West Africa, the Negro stands wholly and solely in the majority here, and according to mandate that was issued to Union of South Africa, with the exception of trading in arms and liquor, he is at liberty to buy and sell, and no one of them is beneficial for him to earn a livelihood.
Now, Mr. Editor, as is well known the world over, in particular in our motherland, we are aggregated, discriminated, disfranchised,晶-crowded in cattle trucks, coal boxes, and last, not no the leather, butchered by the men of our army, gun bullets. But what we are dealing here with mostly is aggregation wholly in its aspects in the former regime of our oppressors the Germans. The Negro was located a distance from the city a mile or more, and a demaration line died so that black and white men could see each other in quenches that no white trader was allowed in the Negro quarters, but the oppressors were so ravenous after the Negroes' paltry earnings that he was compelled to break his own law and rush to the Negro for support in the line of trading to smite his bewilderment. We have only four small businesses, two general groceries and two eating houses, and as is known, the Negroes, or I may say, part of them, can't gather as yet the principles of organization, brotherly love and racialism for instead of husbanding their sons, we deal with the white man when there are stores at their very own doors to acquire the same commodities from What we have received in return for our ally and supporting the white man is that the three capitals, that have followed our ally, are articles to municipal authorities, this week demanding them to flood businessness?
Kindly publish this broadcast, so that the League of Nailers can see and know what is going to become of their accord, mandates, colony. It is known that this was originated from the law we are testing for our co-educated law. What mandates us here is that we are not blessed with one of our own
DOINGS OF THE MILLETON DIVISION, SASK., CANADA
Editor The Negro World.
August 81 was a great day for the Milton division, for on that day we celebrated with a picnic the first anniversary of the U.S. A. in this piece. The day was a memorable one, for never before have we had the opportunity to celebrate a day and call it "ornu." One of the features was the display of our colors. The president, assisted by the secretary, fixed the Union Jack (the national emblem of Canada), and underneath it the Red, White and Blue floated proudly, thrilling all hearts.
We had "all things in common," including an entire carcass of beef (barbecue) and other refreshments. There were many who came from afar, despite the rush of harvest. The program was led by Mrs. G. Gibdon, and horse and race teams. At 3.45 p. in, we all proceeded to the microbuilding, where the teacher had everything spick and span, and on our arrival we were delighted to find the door posts decorated with the colors. At 3.40 our program began with the singing of "Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory of the Lord." The prayer was then recited in union, led by the secretary.
Mrs. J. G. Gibdon, vice-president of the woman's division, delivered the opening address, after which the regular program consisted of recitation, songs, cakes and addresses. was held, and the school children drilled with the school children-Ethiopian drill and Magnolia drill. The teacher spared no patience to have the children properly trained.
Mrs. A. P. BAIN, president of the Woman's Work, delivered a sitting address on "Get The Woman." Mrs. Eaward Brown, president of the Women's Work, introduced interest, enthusiasm. For all above, she said "Africal" to the aid of "Makonnen." Mitsuka La Puyette, the daughter held us all spoolbound by the masterful minder in within the hands the subject of "A New Negro." This was indeed. Each speaker was thoroughly prepared, and every reference to the Hippie Macaron Hayes was met with welcomes, a applause.
kin who knows the arts of the judiciary and have to respond to one of the jury kind. But Mr. Editor, the real facts are these, that they are content to leave the court, and that the vengeance of the attack waged on our 'organization', as you will see from the clipping that is inure tooled, which I trust that, as a noted scholar of our race, you will decipher. They say that it is (i) a good gift, that is (i) a gift, given my poor, downrodden brother intelligence, and if we haven't or do not accomplish anything else in Ludfrids we have compelled them for once to take notice of our renowned leader's work. Long may they lead us on to the desired goal!
This article, sorry to say, the covards won't take on any publications whatsoever here from a colored man, but I have relied in writing to the magistrate, as he himself is chairman of the Municipal Council. Borrow my words, if you want to write or otherwise I would be able to forward copy of latter for your entense. approval. But as far as I can gather from certain sources, the magistrate has advised the Council not to attach discredit to the organisation at all. I outline the record of bus first six months pregnant, and I have asked what progress has been made in keeping down the high roll of offenders that the prisona are almost empty. Hospital accommodation with us here there is none and caring for sick, needy and destitute was one of our main objects. Embodied with our constitution an auxiliary bearing a staple for and among us, all men of all ages and all ways progressing. Providing to our Government, here should sickness or death step in on us we were left to the government and Providence up on high should death intervene, town prisoners were told off with sometimes a blanket. In fact, the one you did on what wrapped around your neck, you were buried without the least sign of spiritual rights. These are only a few of the mild facts that, were disclosed to him, for he has only lazily, arrived to take up his duty as magistrate. His reply, I haven't received, yet, so if any, I am eager awaiting him. Even my centilites, which I have been certified to the such that we are better payers than their own although our earning is a way below those on our white brothers.
Thanking you for open public

HIGH COMMISSIONER DUVAL HEETS WITH SUCCESS IN CONNECTICUT
A very enthusiastic meeting was held last Sunday, September 18, 1981, at East Granbury, Conn., the occasion being that, through the efforts of New. C. Lowry is now division was set up to manage the movement of leaps and bounces. On this occasion he had present with us Mr. Wilson¹ the president of the Hartford Division, with his assistance the movement by leaps and bounces, twenty-four paid-up members. The moray was raised for the quarter at once. At the close of the meeting many speeches were made by different ones expressing their respect to Dr. David leaving New England. He married to Mary of New York State. He will take his duties October 1. Dr. David in speaking of Mr. Lowry, said that, he is indeed a Garrevite². He said he found him similarly engaged in health and friendship formed by expressing himself with Mr. Lowry throughout the months of Confectionation. It is hoped that this conference will therefore he may, will give his attention to this particular discussion. For we find there are structured numbers of persons there to be taken up for the movement in need of some of the movement for they are ready to aid them time to take hold and make readiness.
the witness, so as to the witness, that the defendant, people, be bound by the purposes of, this conviction, with a view, to enforcing these purposes;
If, in perhaps, unfertility that than, to the four, delegates, namely, Messrs. Lodge, Highes, Underwood, and Rook, the two first mentioned have indicted by their public utterance a difference in their individual views as compared to the unrestrained, and the other order, of the movement, which were called in the calling of the disarmament confession.
But thwarting all of these questions are experienced diplomats. They know that that cannot get something for nothing. But it can be, said with no disrespect and with almost truth that, under certain conditions, diplomacy is a wieldy occupation. I must nation will doubles, instruct its delegates as to what it seeks to harry away from this conference, and the approximate price it can afford to pay. For this is the essence of international diplomacy. I am inclined to believe that there is a considerable amount of the American people who complete that our government needs and Italy, the immediate payment of the interest overpayment applicable to the vast sums which we loaned to them in the prosecution of the war.
I am equally convinced that it is not the desire of the American people to consider for one moment the gratuitous cancellation of these debts, either in respect to intents or principal.
Furthermore, I am heartily in accord with the popular learning for disarmament and world peace, the diversity of which you have so often valued.
(Signed) I. A. H. Hopkins
Executive chairman, Committee of 48
in connection with the above, Mr.
Hopkins.
"At a time when we are growing
under the burden of excessive taxation,
it is appealing to realize that over
a per cent. of our national budget has
been sent aside to pay for past wars
and to prepare for future conflicts. The
reason for this lies in the fact that
our banking group which controls both
the Republican and Democratic parties
has become immortalized in an
impressive account accumulated at 48
million dollars and seeks more money
than ever to maintain its exploitation
demand the guarding of their
investment tax, as all powerful army
and navy.
The supreme issue is the breaking up
of our present financial empire.
The Committee of 48 has already
bought out this institution cannot
be ignored."
of a new civil service party, proposed by
The Aboriginal of Australia. Commission
feels that among the past, government
public service should be made public, central to our national commerce,
through the mission of land as its actual value.
"Just a party, a party to the Committee of
is obligated to treat it. The new party will
be formed, will be members of the
1822 General Council, in preparation for the presidential election of
1854."
"But the coming disarmament experience, a
important for the public to know what it is being the suggestion that Bergenburg Mullin have given a free hand in dealing with the financial obligations of European nations to the United States, arising out of the take war. It is equally important to guarantee why England, France and Italy have not paid their debts and what steps they are taking to bring about a settlement. The ultimate call for a new dawn and opening the way to a better agreement that would be mutually beneficial to all concerned."
"Torture it might seem to be designated as in the nature of our open covensal of peasons openly arrived at."
Italiano, otro Japonés, otro Chino, y ahora llegamos al punto en que nosotros seremos Africanos.
Apesar de ser malo el hombre y huber perdido el esplítio en si milismo, respeta lo físico y material de todas las epocas. Si usted tiene propedad, si usted tiene fuerza, su semjante le respetara porque por medio de su propedad usted se independiza económicamente; por medio de su fuerza usted podrá protejer su propedad y su persona; como individualidad y como nación. Si la nación es prospera y tiene su fuerza física bien mobilizada, todas las demas naciones la respetarán; y así tenemos una Gran Bretagna respetada, unos Estados Unidos de America respetados, un Japón respetado, una Francia respetada; y nosotros los cuatro clientes millones de Negros del mundo, estamos ahora organizándonos para tener un Afrika respetada. El trabajo de LA ASOCIACION UNIVERSAL PARA EL ADELANTO DE LA RAZA NEGRA es profundo e inmenso en sus miras. Yo, por consigulente pido a todo Negro viviente en el mundo el unirse ahora y ayudarnos a conducir nuestro programa, que quiero decir libertad para todos. Porqué se queda usted fuera del manto de esta gran organización que persigue la emancipación de la raza?
Mundo En Que Vivimos Nos Tiene Muy Poea Simpida. Dito El Leader Do Nucatro Gran Movilento—Los Fuertes Conquistan a Los Dibiles y Los Hacem Esclavos—La Raza Dehe Organizarse Para Hacerse Puerto—El Hombre Es Pecedor—El Hombre Es Dhill—Mensaje Sensacional Del Hon. Marcus Garvey
El Nuevo Año de LA ASOCIACION UNIVERSAL PARA EL DESARROYO DE LA RAZA NEGRA empezó el primero de Septiembre, y los miembros de esta organización se han comprometido a trabajar sin cesar, cuyo resultado ha de ser una unión de la raza en 1921-1922. Nuestro deseo como organización es el de traer la Raza a una unión en todas partes. Queremos que los cuatro clientes millones de hombres, mujeres y niños con sangre africana circulando por sus venas, se unan en un cuerpo adulto. Con, y por medio de una raza unida, tenemos la esperanza de abrir un camino a la liberatad industrial, social, educativa y política.
e Porqué critica usted y halla faltas a una organización cuando su propia libertad depende de la prosperidad de ella? Yo recurro a ustedes hombres y mujeres de la raza para que aporten sus rescuos financieros, educaciones y físicos por el presente y trabajemos por la realización de nuestras esperanzas. No es necesario el decir que no podemos hacerlo.
El mundo en que vivimos nos tiene muy poca simpatia como raza, y quizás ninguna. Los varios grupos de humanidad se están dedicando todos y cada uno de ellos, a trahajar por su propio interés con la exclusión y desventajas de los otros. Los negros por consiguiente, no pueden ignorar la consecuencia de la desorganización. La desorganización de cualquier pueblo ocaclona ruina. La historia nos enseña que grupos débiles y desorganizados han sido siempre la carnada de las razas y naciones fuertes. Cuando Gran Bretaña era débil, Roma conquistó su pueblo; cuando los estados y principados esparcidos de Europa eran débiles, Grecia los conquistó; cuando tentiamos un mundo débil y sin preparación, Napoleón subyugó a la humanidad. Asi ha sido en el pasado y será en el futuro; el débil será siempre victima del fuerte.
Todos los que estudian historia convendrán en que los pueblos del pasado, laborando en peores ventajas que las del Negro de hoy, pudieron sacudir el yugo de sus opresores, y constituirse en una raza y nacion poderosa. Ellos han podido establecer vastos imperios. Lo que otros han hecho en el pasado podemos hacer en el presente y en el futuro. Todo lo que queremos es disposición y confianza. ¿Porqué no debemos tener confianza entre nosotros mismos, cuando hemos tenido confianza en otros por espacio de 500 años, por cuya influencia les hemos ayudado a construirse en fuerzas prepotentes? Nosotros hemos ayudado a Gran Bretaña a llegar a la meta de sus aspiraciones. Nosotros hemos ayudado a América a convertirse de trece miseros estados, en la república más grande del mundo.
Si nosotros pudimos hacer todo eso porotros, ¿ porquo no organizarnos y hacernoslo a nosotros mismos? Hay que hacerlo, y nadie lo hará sin usted; de modo que empecemos ahora y bajo la dirección de LA ASOCIACION PARA EL ADELANTO DE LA RAZA NEGRA. La raza debe ser organizada, la raza debe ser emancipada, debe haber un Africa libre y redenta, de otro modo los negros del mundo debemos prepararnos a morir srivientes, a morir esclavas, y Porqué? Porque el mundo entero a nuestro alrededor se está organizando. Grupos distintos y separados en todas partes se están untienda; van a ejecutar su fuerza unida en contra de aquellos que están desorganizados. Los desorganizados serán triturados; tal será nuestro destino. El grupo desorganizado será cerrado en el invierno de la adversidad, y el grupo organizado se reunira en la claridad-oportuna de la grandeza de Dios. Por ese digo ahora con una nota de prevision, "preparémonos y formemos parte de LA ASOCIACION PARA EL ADELANTO DE LA RAZA NEGRA." Con toda la inteligencia que se posea en la personalidad de un DuBols, de un Kelly Miller, de un Robort Morton, me permito decir que ésta es la época de organizarse.
Queremos una raza unida, por consiguiente, un'amonos ahora y acumulemos nuestros recursos. Queremos hombres de luz y saber que ayuden; por qué quedarse fuera del amparo de LA ASOCIACION UNIVERSAL PARA EL ADELANTO DE LA RAZA NEGRA? Otra vez, hombres y mujeres miembros de nuestra raza, vuelvo por nuestra ayuda y cooperación. Pode ayudar uniendoos a LA ASOCIACION PARA EL ADELANTO DE LA RAZA NEGRA ahora, y suscribiendoos a la prosperidad financiera de la organización.
Estamos ahora levantando un Fondo para la Redención de Africa, el que será usado para nuestra emancipación y la de nuestra tierra. Puedo inviar su contribución al Secretario General de la organización, 56 Oeste Calle 135, Ciudad de Nueva York. Sea lo que usted pueda. Envíelo para que nuestro trabajo continue.
CON LA AMERICA LATINA
Según la estadística, fácilmente puede calcularse a la América Latina, un cuarenta por ciento comopromedio general en sus habitantes, pertenecientes a nuestra raza; siendo por consigulente, un número bastante considerable de nuestro elemento en el Continente Occidental. Goza dicho elemento de los privilegios correspondientes a todo Ser humano, con el derecho de vivir y evolucionar moral, intellectual y materialmente? Esta es una cuestión, de suma importancia para la realizacion de nuestro desenvolvimiento en todas sus esferas. De nosotros mismos depende el disfrutar de dichos privilegios.
De qué modo? Haciendo mejor uso de nuestros energias interesandonos más en un modus vivendu que nos proporcilen los resultados apetecidos. Angelandonos, como ya antes hemos dicho, y ligando aún más estrechamente nuestros lazos de confraternidad. Es algo extrato pero sorprendente, el modo como los grandes Ideales hanado desarrollados en hechos prácticos para beneficio de las infraestructuras. Gualquier hecho hibernantes con relación a este objecto, puede illustrarse y darnos cuenta exacta de las cuales y consecuencias. Recordando y contrarrestando un adiugo muy vulgar que dice, querrer es poder, no dehemos QUERER, dehemos PODER.
