WHITES IN SOUTH AFRICA WANT
SOCIAL EQUALITY WITH COLGREC
Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting:
I am today reproducing below a news item published in the Evening News of London, under the date of October 15, 1921, having its origin in Bloemfontein, South Africa. The item reveals the minister confession of General Hertzog, the leader of the Nationalists Party in South Africa.
General Hertzog is a white man leading a large number of white people in South Africa, with the political design of an independent South African Republic. The Nationalists party of South Africa has been in existence for several years and has made great inroads in the political policies of that country. Just a couple of years ago the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Negro peoples of the world started a propaganda for an independent African nation for the Negroes of the world, thereby creating consternation and fear among the aliens who inhabit the continent of Africa.
General Hertzog, like the rest of the aliens in Africa, has been very much disturbed by the universal slogan of "Africa for Africans." They perform have had to change their talk and their policy.
Four years ago General Hertog was uncompromising in his attitude toward the colored and native peoples of South Africa. He was hard on both classes; he had no more respect for the se than the other. Both natives, who are black people, and colored, who are the offspring of white and black, were treated as inferior, and were heyed together in the compounds of South Africa and made to know that all men were not for them as far as equality with the white race were, industrially, medically, educationally and politically. Now that the native Africans and the Negro peoples of the world are determined to free their country from the overlordship of aliens, these alien are endeavoring to initiate a new program for Africa, by which they will be able to weaken the spirit of solidarity through which Africans hope to free themselves.
The following is the news item:
NATIVE SEGREGATION SOUTH AFRICAN NATIONALISTS
"BLOEMFONTEIN, Friday (Received Saturday).—On lining the parties' policy at the National Congress today, National Hertzog said a distinction had to be made between the natives and the colored people. They were two totally different groups, and they could not be treated on the same basis. This new desire for an education and civilization could not be denied, yet the industrial development of the native means to the white man. The surest policy was territorial segregation, to lead finally to industrial segregation. The native would then have an opportunity to develop and become a more valuable member of the community. There had always existed the color fair, but there should be equality of rights for each color in its own territory. Native segregation would open the way for just treatment of colored people, who, partly Europeans, would finally have to be treated as whites. The whites cannot ignore the awakening among the natives and colored people. He advised, therefore, segregation for the native, and final absorption of the colored people.—Renter."
We have heard a great deal of buncombe about "white superiority," "the purity of the white race," etc., and the would was led to believe that at no time and nowhere would the white race desire of its own accord an admixture of colored and white in the social life. We were led to believe that each race had a separate and distinct social destiny, and that there could be no coming together of two opposite races, the one being white and the other colored or black, but here we have an ultra-professed white South African, General Hertzog himself, advocating the absorption of the colored people of South Africa by the white race.
Now let us see what is the cause of it. To my way of thinking, this talk about social superiority is all tommy-yet. It is not meant, and it is not tak seriously. Only when the one-race finds itself stronger than the other, industrially, commercially and politically independent, then they assume the idea of race, and social superiority. But when their boasted superiority is threatened in any way, they are always willing to say, "We are all one, all brothers, let's get together." as General Hertzring is now taking the colored people of South Africa to get together with the white people, and become so, because General Hertzring realizes that the white people of South Africa are too few in number to offer the rump spirit of the colored and black in South Africa, with the grand and noble triumphs of "Africa."
NEGROES SHOULD STICK TOGETHER AND REFUSE TO YIELD UNTIL THERE IS A FREE AND REDEMED AFRICA
now that we are all one, whether we are blank or whether we have but one-sixteenth of Negro blood in our veins. The courts, judges and white lawyers everywhere hold that one drop of black blood makes you a Negro, and now we are going to get together on this proposition. Black men did not say so, the white man it was who said so, and he is not going to change this policy to suit his convenience. He feels that the policy cannot work in South Africa, but it may work in America, where the whites outnumber the blacks; it may work in other parts of the world where the whites outnumber the blacks, but when it comes to Africa, they realize that that cannot work there, because black men outnumber white men, so they are trying to change the policy in South Africa, but, thank God, the whole thing has made a circuit of the world, and Negroes everywhere have got to realize that they are all one, that one drop of their own blood makes every man a Negro.
I am appealing, therefore, to the colored and black peoples of the world not to allow the other races to deceive you to suit their own convictions. If you were Negroes in 1913, you are still Negroes in 1921. If in 1915, before the great European war, you were not fit to associate with the whites in South Africa, West Africa, North Africa, and in the United States and everywhere, you are still not fit to associate with the white man. Do not let any race use you for their convenience. The Japan is always a Jap, the Anglo-Saxon is always an Anglo-Saxon, and the Negro is going to be always a Negro, even though it displaces the convenience of General Hertzog and his ilk.
This game has been played against the race in several parts of the world other than South Africa. It has been played in the West Indies for nearly eight years, and has nearly caused the defeat of the West Indian Negroes in their higher ambition toward industrial, social and political freedom. It is only the advent of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that has brought about a change in West Indian affairs. Because the Negroes outnumber the whites in the West Indies, the whites several years ago began to say, "Why, we whites are not numerous enough to overbalance these blacks under one constitution of equality; therefore, the first thing we can do is to separate the blacks from the colored, and tell the colored that they are better than the blacks, and be more lenient toward the colored, and now and then let us intermarry with the colored, let us absorb them gradually, let them believe that they are like us, so that we can play them against the blacks," and they have been playing the colored against the blacks in the West Indies for the last eighty years, and this has brought about the demoralization of race pride and race loyalty among the Negroes in that part of the world. Now they are going to play the same game in South Africa.
When they found out that the native Africans had great respect for the white man because he was white, and they saw no danger of the native ever getting to see that he ought to possess Africa, and not the alien adventurer, they were satisfied just to rest upon themselves for superiority and trade their occupation of Africa, and through their informal and illicit confair with the native, they brought out a colored population, and even through their colored people were the children of their own bastardy, they said, "You are not our equal; you are inferior; go among the natives; he compounded with them; sleep with them; work with them; die with them, because you are inferior." But now there is a pinch in the shoe of this racial superiority stuff. They are going to the old West Indian colonial system of dividing the natives, the blacks from the colored, and playing them one against the other, so that by a confusion with themselves the whites may have an easy time to rule. Yea, divide and rule. They have divided, and have ruled for the last five hundred years, because as a race we were ignorant of their tactics, but today the Negro who is a graduate of the college, the university and the high school is going to play his brains against that of the white man; now it is for us to let South Africa know that there must be no division among the colored and black people. It is for us as a race of Negroes to unite the colored and Black people of South Africa.
natives and rob and exploit them. What colored man with the experience of the last fifty years will stand for such a thing? This meaning of color is not very well understood in the United States of America, because the white people of America have had no reason to play the Uganda against the Negroes of this country, because they outnumber us have but for the color question to be well understood you must play it in the West Indies and Africa, where the blacks outnumber the whites.
PRESIDENT HARDING HAS RENDERED A SIGNAL SERVICE NOT ONLY TO AMERICA, BUT TO THE WHOLE WORLD ALSO, SAYS MARCUS GARVEY, DECLARING HIM A SAGE AND MAN OF GREAT VISION, DESTINED TO RANK WITH WASHINGTON AND LINCOLN
LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 1931—The Hon. Marvin Caron Hall tonight, before a large gathering here, in speaking on the topic, "The Statesmanhip of President Harding." gave an interesting analysis and criticism of the President's Birmingham speech last week, that has stirred the country from coast to coast—in fact the world even, as no other witness by a president of the United States has done. He said that President Harding was a great vision, of great vision, inasmuch as his Harding signs the signs of the timer, and realizes that a great change has come over the country, and over the world in respect to the Negro question. No other president has ever spoken so broadly and in such a manly way as he, despite the fact that in doing so, he staked the displeasure of the mass of "white" people throughout the country, since he advocated political, industrial and economic equality, for the Negro.
Competing upon what President Harding said as to that's being need for a divergence in matters social and social; Mr. Garvey said that there is much hypocrisy on the part of the white man in dealing with the question of social equality. Their contention that there should be no social equality between the two races was adopted only for convenience, while they are in the ascendancy numerically and politically, but that when conditions become reversed, they would abandon it as a principle. As evidence of this, he referred to the present attitude of the white; people in South Africa toward the colored population and the natives there, as expressed by General Herdin. Four years ago the colored people and natives of South Africa were regarded, as being inferior to the white, as being destructive and violent. All words of life set against them. Now, besides the colored people and natives of South Africa, through the influence of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, were grouped to a sense of the wrong perpetrated against them, and made conscious of their inherent strength and their rights as men, the white people are anxious to let down the hands of social equality and take them on a social footing with themselves.
of their own, that all the world will respect, in their motherland, Africa. The counsel general had not spoken in Liberty Hall for a considerable time, and his presence and address were highly welcomed and enthusiastically appreciated by the members and friends who were present. Before the adjournment, the president-general announced that, in the interests of the municipal political interests of the colored people of Harlem, arrangements had been made for holding two political mass-meetings this week in Liberty Hall: one on Thursday night, to be held by the Democratic Party, which Mayor Hylan will speak; the other on Friday night, which Curran, representing the Republican Party will speak. He declared that the U. N. I. A. takes no particular interest in politics, and leaves all its members to follow their own individual judgment as to which party they wish to support. He pleaded, however, for a respectful, courteous hearing to be accorded the speakers representing the two parties, and hoped that at both meetings there would be a creditible showing and representation of the members of the association. The president, the police must answer and pagenst in Liberty Hall on Armistice Night, Nov. 11. These pagena, he stated, would be hold once each month in Liberty Hall. PRESIDENT-GENERAL GARVEY'S GREETING
The President-General spoke as follows.
My subject for tonight is, "The Statemanship of President Harding" (Applause). I feel sure that every Negro within the reach of my voice must have read the speech of the President of this great republic delivered at Birmingham, Ala., on the 28th inst. That speech now, and the circuit of the world, and feel sure it will carry its effect wherever it goes.
The speech that President Harding made leads me to believe that--at least, we must admit that--he is one of the greatest statesmen of the present day. (Applause.) He is great, because he sees not only for his day, he sees not only for his generation, he has a vision of the future, which all sensible statesmen ought to have just at this time of world readjustment among races and among nations. The statesman who fails to read the signs of the times, as far as that applies to Negroes, is a statesman of narrow vision; and if President Harding wants other statesmen to be held in this country, stirring from November 11, with the vision of the Bribery ingham speech, then surely the world dimenions. And I trust that the other statesmen who are to take part in that Disarmament Conference will accept this vision of President Harding, because unless they have such a vision there will be no peace.
Quotes President Harding
I will read to you one or two of the pointed sentences in President Harding's speech, and after that I will read to you one or two paragraphs from the reported comment of Senator Harrison, of Mississippi, on the speech as made in the speech of President Harding. South. Among other things President Harding said:
" Hate amalgamation, there can never be! But it may to you now, whether you like it, of whether you don't, unless our democracy is a lie, you must recognize that equity. I say that to all America, North and South, black and white. He means equality of rights, and he spoke these words to an audience, chiefly of white Southerners. He said them as a Republican President in that part to the country. Hare the Democratic Party holds away. He will then courting the friendship of the Regent because the friendship of the Negro has been a result of court. No white man in his country. You that matten, has any real, spack to court the friendship of the Negro, because he can exist. Without the Negro as far as politics is concorredly. The majority votes that make presidents, that make governors, that make senators, and that make compresidents, are in the hands of white men; so, no Republican President has anything to lose, or anything to gain, as far as the colored people are concorridith, in speaking as the President did at Birmingham—nothing whatever, other than to lose the friendship and the support of the rest of the white people in the country, and President Harding risked losing that friendship, because he had to have done something, not for the reason he was doing it, or doing it, but the most important thing is going on the world, and he got them at the public where he said: " I say so, you know, whether you think it's the problem of whether you don't see this. The problem is like you must recognize that equity is the

The current state now down沉睡 that the country has was the only one that they were. What was the reason why President Harding made such a step in the heart of the South. It was that President Harding's position was all kind of unknowing and unknowing. It was the most important thing to the North.

the whole paragraph, so that you may get the intelligence of it:
"I can say to you people of the South, both white and black, that the time has passed when you are entitled to assume that this problem of races is peculiarly and particularly your problem. More and more, it is becoming a problem of the North; more and more, it is becoming a problem of Africa, of South America, of the Pacific, of the South Sean, of the world."
Explains President Harding's Meaning
Explain President Harding's Meaning
What does President Harding mean by that? He means that the prejudice which has created a conflict between black and white is no longer a problem of the South; it is a problem that will find an echo even in the heart of Africa. Further explaining what President Harding means, he means this: "If you attack a black man in the South, because he is a Negro, remember the problem does not and here; it will end up in Africa when he meets you there." (Applause). That is what President Harding means, and that is what all sensible, intelligent statesmen of the white race ought to realize—that 400,000,000 Negroes are going to strike back with a vengeance. (Applause.) So, the question of the Negro is no longer one of the Southern States of America, it is a universal question; a universal problem, and will be fought out on the battle plains of Africa. (Applause.) I hope that the Disarmament Conference will take that into consideration.
Harding a Man of Great Vision
President Harding, I repeat, is a saga a man of great vision, and only because of the weight of this new NEG problem, I believe, did he make such a bold statement in the heart of the South. President Harding has rendered a signal service not only to America, but he has rendered a signal service to the world by the utterances he made in his Birmingham speech. How long can America continue to lynch and burn Negroes? How long can the world continue to oppress, to brutalize to murder, to deprive him of his freedom, to kill Negroes not organised, and they are getting organised now. (Anasus.) As I said to you before in many a speech, the problem and question with you, the question that keeps you weak, is a question of disorganization.
Negro Question Made Prominent by U. N. L. A.
No President within the last twenty years, within the last twenty-five years it America, has come out as boldly in a statement touching the Negro as President Harding did on the 15th of this month. Why? Because a great change has come over the country; because a great change has come over the world, and it is caused through what? Through organization. And what can you trace it to? No other organization than the Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Applause.) The Universal Negro Improvement Association in its four years of activity this country and in other parts of the world has brought the Negro question prominently to the doors of all statemen. Whether they wish to credit us with it or not, we all know

President's Speech in the Language of the New Negro
President Harding's speech really wan in the language of the new Negro. So I will let him speak for himself and not in any way interfere with his thoughts as he, expressed them until I am through reading his address.
He says again "The black man should be encouraged to be the best possible black man, and not the best possible imitation of a white man" (Laughter): That in a direct slop or hit at Dr. Dubola. That is "the unkindest cut of all" (Laughter) I never believed that President Harding would have been so hard on Dr. Dubola (Laughter). It is "the unkindest cut of all" (Laughter). Because, at one blow, the Chief Excuse of this nation made us understand that trying to imitate white men, trying to be white, will in no way bring better appreciation from the white man than if we try to be what we are. On the contrary, by the expression of President Harding they would appreciate us the more if we try to be what we are, what God made us, what God intended us to be, rather than try to imitate some other race.
Another Plank in the U. N. I. A's
Programs
And that is another glank in the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, strengthened by the High Executive of this country, because we have been teaching that doctrine all the time—that you are as good as a white man; therefore, you should think more of yourself than any other person in the world. (Applause.) It is best to be yourselves; and he, a white man, comes out and tells you that it is best to be what you are (laughter) than try to be something else. I hope Dr. Dubois will take that to heart and join the Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Laughter.)
Stands with President Harding
President Harding continues by saying: "Men of both races may well stand uncompromisely against every suggestion of social equality; indeed, it would be helpful to have that word "equality" eliminated from this consideration; to have it accepted on both sides that this is not a question of social equality, but a question of recognising a fundamental, eternal and uncompatible difference. President Harding will call on you to call on equality; he wants only to call it 'a difference between 'we people'; a difference which ought to be respected, because God created you and nature created you so. That is what he wants. He does not want to offend anybody by talking about social equality. He wants to draw it closer and nearer to everybody, that God created you as you are; therefore you should be what you are. (A voice, "Sure! Laughter.) And he advises, "men of both races must stand uncompromisely against every suggestion of equality." Note his words. I like that (Laughter) if "social equality" means that I must not want to mix with your women, and you must not mix with
mine, then I say I am with President Harding (Applause). And, therefore in Negroes start to attack back on white men trying to get too close to black women, then we will be carrying out the eternal question that there should be no social equality. I trust so, because the South was loud in applauding the President on three points. The white people, who made up the majority of those who listened to the President in Birmingham, remained quiet when he said there should be industrial quality, that there should be educational quality, that there should be social equality, that they quilt them. But when the President said that there should be no social equality, all the white people present cheered. I trust they understood what they cheered—that they must not endeavor to mix up with colored people in their social life.
Defines Social Equality
Now, what do I mean by that? They say social equality means that black men want to marry white women. We accept that as the meaning of social equality, for convenience, if for no other reason, when they say that social equality means that black men—colored men want to be associated with white women. We accept that as the meaning of social equality, for convenience. Then, if colored men must not do that, white men must not do that to colored women. (Applause.) And President Harding advances that "the men of both races should stand uncompromisingly against this New York law, are you going to stand uncompromisingly on the question, and follow the leadership of President Harding" (Loud replies of "Yes"). I think I hear the echo of the Negroes of the world saying, "Yes, we shall carry it out."
Application of Doctrine Will React
The Difference Between Here and South Africa
Now, what is the difference between the two statements? The one speaks for the first statement, the other for the second, number the blanks, and because of the blanks the affair can be set on any line.
of demarcation they please; because they are overwhelmingly stronger numerically, they can adopt any policy they decide upon. In South Africa the whites dominated the natives for years and years, for decades and decades because the natives of South Africa accepted the declaration of the superiority of the white man, they accepted the belief that the white man had something to teach them, they accepted the belief that the white man had something from which they could learn. But a code can carry four years ago.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association got organized in South Africa just about three years ago and conveyed to the natives that there was absolutely nothing in common between black and white as far as social life was concerned—as far as the political life of the peoples was concerned. We pointed out to them that in America men were lached because they were black, men were brutalized because they were black and in three years we have created a new feeling—a new sentiment—in South Africa, which gives rise to the grand slogan of "Africa for the Africans." And now that the South Africans have started to organize to take control of South Africa for themselves General Herzog, who was against social equality four years ago, comes out now and says "we must assimilate with the colored people and make them enjoy the same social privileges as ourselves."
There is a moral. The moral is this: that there is nothing like a social bar between strong people. This social equality question is a farce. It is a bar only for the convenience of the strong against the weak. The moment the weak becomes strong, those who were strong before are willing to accept social equality. But are you going to be fool in South Africa to attempt social equality there when you are about to win out? When the white man is coming to you to give you social equality it means he is losing something. He has started to lose in Africa and he has to thank himself for it, because we never started to draw the line. It was not the Negro who said there should be no social equality. It was the white man who said that there shall be no social equality, and he must make up his mind to stand and fall by it.
Social Equality Not To Be Tolerated
That is what I mean by saying this thing is to react. It is going to react. Men of America, men of the West Indie, follow President Harding's great lead, stand uncompromisingly against the idea of social equality, because with unity of purpose you will become one of the greatest peoples in the world. You have started already to pull South Africa your way. The Boer in South Africa was the most prejudiced man in the world. You talk about the Southern cracker—he is not one-tenth as prejudiced as the South African Boer. The South African Boer had no mercy in the South African native or colored people, and when you gave a Boer like General Herzog to them, we must now be social equality between white and colored it means that you have great some' and you will be given so foolish compromise just before the dawn of victory. If social equality was not good four years ago it is not good now. (Applause). If you throw away the victories won by the Universal Negro Improvement Association and after throwing them away you find that five or ten years after you have been reverted to the old-time conditions, do not blame the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Blame yourselves.

a great deal to bring about such a change in the attitude of Presidents.
Presidents went in and Presidents went out of the White House and never had anything to say on the Negro question. Woodrow Wilson was heralded as being one of the greatest statesmen during the war. He went into the White House and came out of the White House after being for eight years, and never had anything of great significance and importance to say about the Negro question. But during Wilson's then we just getting organized, and he did not then feel the power and potency of the Universal Negro Improvement Association during our great President Harding's time as being recognized worldwide as are being recognized must be reckoned with by Presidents and statesmen and Premiers and Kings.
(Applause.) My advice to you of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, therefore, is to keep organized because the silver lining will soon show itself; and surely we have suffered long; we have suffered patiently for this day.
Mississippi Senate's Comment on
Harding Speech Ridleyed
President Harding said among other things, that there should be, industrial equality, educational equality, etc., and after all, those things were published, we have Senator Harrison, then, the first saying these things, the President's speech, was unfit.
tumult and to have made it in the heart of the South where in some States the Negro population predominate was unfortunate in the extreme. Of course every rational being destiny to see the Negro protected in his life liberty and property. I believe in giving him every right under the law to which he is entitled; but to encourage the Negro who in some States exceeds the white population, to strive through every political avenue to be placed upon equality with the white, is a blow to the white civilization of the country that will take years to combat. If President's theory, namely that a black person (either man or woman) should have full economical and political rights with the white man and white woman, that means that the black man can strive to become President of the United States, hold Cabinet positions and occupy the higher places of public trust in the nation. It means that white women could work under black man in public work as well as in all trades or professions. It implies that any such theory because I know impracticable; it is unjust, and it is destructive for the best ideals of America. In the Negro upon economical and political equality with the white man or woman and the friction between the races will be aggravated. The President is right in that the race question is a national one and not confined to any section, but this unfortunate and mischievous utterance on the subject will be deprecated by people in every section of the country and people under the preservation of the white civilization."
Now you have the thing in a nutshell. You really do not want any comment on that. That explains it self. That is Senator Harrison's idea of justice. He says "Yes, I believe in justice under the law for the Negro. What, what is the law? The law is the fulfillment of your constitution and your constitution does not recognize black or white. It is a constitution for all, and why should not a black man be President of the United States even as a white man if he has the ability to fill the position" (Applauses). And then you tell me that if I am not a man, then he is the beating boy you say, am, but I am going to anger monkey. (Laughter). If I am, I want the rights of a man, and if you deny them I am going to demand them, and being a man I have a certain number of senses: I have intelligence and I know this, that it is ignorant and it is foolish to knock up against dreadful odds; therefore being a man and in possession of all my senses as fifteen million Negroes in America, and knowing that this country has one hundred million people or more and the majority of them are white folks and the majority of them think really as Senator Harrison thinks—that there is justice without equality and there is justice without rights—then why should I waste time in a place where I am outnumbered and where if I make a physical fight I will lose our advantage. Why waste all my energy right to fight somewhere else to fight where I have the advantage in numbers and where I may demand the highest position within the State? Therefore if I cannot be President in the United States of America as I desire because I am a man and not a monkey, am not going to let anybody fool me. I am going to be President in Africa.
Let us as a race undevele ourselves if a Negro cannot be President, cannot be a Senator, cannot occupy government positions, be head of government departments where white or black can work under him, then what is that Negro's hope anyhow. Don't see you if they want you to behave yourselves and they say "all right I believe in justice for the Negro." it means they are only using you for convenience? If they fooled my father with that stuff they will have to go some to fool me.
Any Negro who is a citizen of any country, whether it is America, Great Britain or France, and has not the ambition to rise in that country to be President, to be Premier or to be Minister or Secretary of State, such a Negro ought to die, because God almighty made a mistake in creating him. If I find myself a British citizen or a British subject, my ambition would be to rise to be Prime Minister of Great Britain. If I find myself to be a French citizen my ambition would be to be President of France. If I find myself an American citizen my ambition would be to be President of the United States, and if my citizenship carries no right of that kind

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1921
Dixon, Joe Gams, Joe Wolcott, Sam Langford and Jack Johnson, and such athletes as Howard P. Drew, William H. Levis, William C. Mathews and Williams. This is not intended as a criticism of President Harding's masterly address, but to prevent any one drawing false conclusions and corollaries from it.
But these are academic questions which students of psychology, sociology and ethnology can thresh out. But the most suggestive paragraph in President Harding's address was when he said, "I can say to you people of the South, both white and black, that the time has passed when you are entitled to assume that this problem of race is peculiarly and particularly your problem. More and more it is becoming a problem of the North more and more it is a problem of Africa, of South America, of the Pacific, of the South Seas, of the world. It is the problem of democracy everywhere, if we mean the things we say about democracy as the ideal political state." This statement is such a clear recognition of the world aspects of the color question that no further comment is necessary.
P.A.F. HARRISON
the thing about Presidency statesmen and the Governor Benjamin Trower several years ago he cleared your daughter to a Senator Bailey of Northern white man as the South has repurposed in mind over the coming comes along and economic and political equality, amalgamation in this statement that itsts and hurrah. But Jackson of Georgia, South of Alabama see the South is concerned fixed the limits and but an living can be brought to light the white civilization to show that the cry of that the legal and greatest service of the has brought to light theinal status of the New York will say that while the special gifts peculiar to such a monstrosity no known psycholo-ical laws will account for the ear sung these days. Some colored people sing it; others say an argument, with a it should be. There are equal view is growing on music issued to us, its authenticity. The slaving slave which coh prompted them—God. No person can bring in some of the origins in a heart of charity where he is one of the seven bands of jubilee music which gives us reason is not all fun. It makes us cry when itattend an affair when by a male quarter he forward, said some. The lady accompanies in some of the most be interrupted by the unexpected time. It as suddenly as they either with the peculiar laugh. A gentleman says: "Sonny, you show of our foreparents." Oh, how well of our foreparents, for chamed of the fellow foreparents were there. There is a lil music or else there may we should not sit that even where there is slight reluctance not far enough reiterated to be entirely free for it sung. But when the tendency always in when they hear it sum up answer in a sententious jubilee music? we wow.
But the most unique thing about President Harding's address is that it smoked out Southern statesmen and forced them to show their hand. When the late Senator Benjamin Tillman spoke in the North on the race question several years ago he closed some of his addresses by asking, "Do you want your daughter to marry a Nigger?" In the summer of 1907 former Senator Bailey of Texas stated that he felt himself superior to the Northern white man who regarded the Negro as his social equal. Thus the South has represented that it was very much disturbed and perturbed in mind over the question of social equality.
Then President Harding comes along and states flat footedly that he favors educational and economic and political opportunity for the Negro, but opposes social equality, amalgamation and intermarriage. One would suppose from this statement that the Southern statesmen would throw up their hats and hurrah. But Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, Senator Watson of Georgia, Senator McKellor of Tennessee and Senator Heflin of Alabama seemed dissatisfied. Senator Heflin said "So far as the South is concerned we hold to the doctrine that God Almighty has fixed the limits and boundary lines between the two races, and no Republican living can improve upon His handiwork." Senator Pat Harrison said "I believe in giving him (the Negro) every right under the law to which he is entitled, but to encourage the Negro, who in some States, as in my own, exceeds the white population, to strive through every political avenue to be placed upon an equality with the whites is a blow to the white civilization of this country that will take years to combat."
These statements show that the cry of social equality is a camouflage in the South and that the legal and political status of the Negro is the real issue. The greatest service of President Harding's memorable address is that it has brought to light the fact that the political and legal and not the social status of the Negro is the real issue in the sunny South.
In conclusion, we will say that while the Negro, like other races, has racial traits and racial gifts peculiar to himself alone, he is not such a freak of nature, such a monstrosity and such an exotic in modern civilization that no known psychological, physiological, physical, chemical and biological laws will account for him and explain him.
A SIN AGAINST JUBILEE MUSIC
We very often hear sung these days jubilee music by colored audiences. Some colored people take the position that we should not sing it; others say that it is the proper thing to do, and thus we have an argument, with a good many supporters on both sides. And this is as it should be. There are good reasons why we should sing jubilee music. There are equally good reasons why we should not. And the latter view is growing in popularity in proportion as the brand of jubilee music issued to us these days opens doubt regarding its genuineness, its authenticity. There were songs born out of the hearts of the suffering slave which come down to us today pure in the sentiments which prompted them—rich in their longing for the sublime and the good. No person can hate such music without proclaiming himself lacking in some of the nobler characteristics of man. Jubilee music had its origin in a heart of love, and it very often moved the enemy to acts of charity where force seemed impotent to overcome. Jubilee music is one of the seven wonders of the age. We mean real jubilee music.
But there is a brand of jubilee music which professional song writera offer today which gives us reason to doubt its authenticity. It is real funny, yet it is not all fun. It makes us laugh when we should be crying and it makes us cry when we should be laughing.
Not long ago we attend an affair when one of the late jubilee numbers was to be sung by a male quartette. Four very intelligent looking young men caffe forward, said something in unison real fast and then stopped short. The lady accompanist at the piano then filled three brief moments with some of the most beautiful strains imaginable, when she was suddenly interrupted by the four impatient voices breaking in at the most unexpected time. They sang on a little while, when they again stopped as suddenly as they had begun. The peculiar words of the song, together with the peculiar way in which it was rendered, caused us to laugh. A gentleman sitting behind us touched us in the back and said: "Sonny, you should not laugh at that song. It is one of the songs of our foreparents, and you should not be ashamed of our foreparents." Oh, how we felt like telling him that we were not ashamed of our foreparents, for they sang no such song as that; but we were ashamed of the (fellow who wrote that song and blamed it on them.
It is a fact that our foreparents were simplicity personified, but they never were ridiculous. There is a limit we must set for these wild writers of jubilee music or else there will be justification in the position of those who say we should not sing it.
We must consider that even where there is no doubt of the authenticity of the music there is slight reluctance on the part of many to sing it, because we are not far enough removed from the conditions which brought it forth to be entirely free from certain unpleasant emotions when we hear it sung. But when the geniusness of the music is questioned the tendency always is toward disgust, and that men laugh sometimes when they hear it sung is not difficult to explain. Were we asked to answer in a sentence the query, "Whether or not we should sing jubilee music?" we would answer: "Yes, when it is genuine."
white, is still very, human, and that the drastic reforms which he proposes the better to settle the problem for the existence of his own race is largely responsible, will not be so easy of accomplishment as he believes. We believe it is facial purity as firmly as does President Harding, but we do not believe, he is seems to, that it can be brought about by official pronunciation. The man has muddied his hair, still furious at his brow, if he who must take the initials because it be who has done all the harm and made possible the Birmingham, Ala., speech of the President.

PRESIDENT HARDING VS. PAT HARRISON
NOT since Col. Theodore Roosevelt declared nineteen years ago, when Dr. Crum's appointment as Collector of Customs for Charleston, S. C., was hanging fire, that he would not shut the door of hope in the face of any man because of his color, has any American President uttered such pregnant and far-reaching words on the race question as did President Harding in Birmingham, Ala., on October 26. He declared unequivocally for educational and economical opportunities for the Negro and for the political rights which are guaranteed by the Constitution. President Harding recognized that this did not involve that the Negro be invited to the pink-tea functions, drawing-room receptions and bride and whist parties of his Caucasian friends and neighbors.
Other presidents have given the Negro problem a lick and a promise and have handled it with lidd gloves. But we do not recall any President of the United States or any American statesman since Charles Sumner who has discussed thoroughly every phase of the perplexed race problem, the educational, economic, political, social and world aspects, as has President Harding. And he did it not in Boston or New York, but in Philadelphia, Ala. His comprehensive grasp of the varied aspects of the race question, his courage, frankness and sincerity stamps President Harding as a real statesman. Whether one agrees with everything President Harding says, everyone must admit that he seriously gruppled with a delirious subject in a calm and dispassionate manner.
There was one point in which a student of psychology might ask for further light. President Harding said: "This is not a question of social equality, but a question of recognizing a fundamental eternal and inescapable difference." The student of psychology would desire to know whether this means that the psychic difference between the Negro and Caucasian are so great that the Negro's mind functions differently from the Caucasian's mind, so that with the Caucasian two plus two equals five; while with the Negro two plus two equals five; whether this means that psychically the Negro is part human and part simian and psychically more removed from the Caucasian than the Japanese, the Chinaman, the Hindoo and the Indian are; whether this means that the Negro's mind functions according to different psychological laws from the rest of mankind, and whether his body obeys different physiological laws, so that you must write out a new science of psychology, a new science of physiology and a new science of biology in order to understand the Negro?
We are all aware that different races have different psychic gifts. The Semitic race manifested genius for religion; the Greek adaptability for literature, art and philosophy; the Romans a genius for law and administration; the Germans a genius for abstract speculation and scientific investigation; the French a genius for artistic and literary detail; the Andeo-Saxon a genius for law, perfecting machines and applying science to practical problems; the Hindoo a genius for abstract speculation, and the Negro a genius for music, eloquence and religion. And it would be well for the Negro to develop his peculiar psychic gifts and follow the dialectics of his own nature. But we do not believe that the Negro mind is so different from the Caucasian mind that it cannot master the science, the mathematics, the law, the language, music and philosophy of the Caucasian mind.

GREETINGS FROM YOKOHAMA
JAPAN
Sept. 11, 1921.
Negro World, New York.
To our most honorable president, officers, members and friends of the U.N. I A & A.C.L & B.S.L. I send you my best wishes, to the fact that I was unable to be in New York to express my wishes at the second International Convention of the Negro people of the world.
My heart was filled with overflowing joy when I read the Negro World of August 20.
It compels me to write you this letter, sending you my best wishes and greetings from Tokyo, Yokohama and Kobo, Japan. It gives me great pleasure to see the great cause of the U.N. I. A & A.C.L. in my traveling through the war J, so full of promise, so much so that I am compelled to express that here in the Orient there seems to be no opposition to the great movement; and that my race has freedom, independence and an absolutely equal footing with that of any other race.
It makes me proud of the great movement and our great Hon. Marcus Garvey, the Moses of the race, who is trying his very best, not only to secure for us our freedom and equality in one or two places, but throughout the entire world, as other peoples are doing.
I must also hope that in the near future we may have ships running to and from the Orient, taking a hand in the great commerce now entirely monopolized by the Caucasian and Japanese races.
I remain,
Yours fraternally,
EMANUEL MCDONALD,
Tokio, Yokohama, Kobe, Japan

PRES. HARDING VINDICATES GARVEY'S DOCTRINE
Editor The Negro World
Sir—it was with profound admiration and satisfaction that I read President Harding's address to the Southern people of Birmingham, Ala., on the Negro question, as published in the New York Evening Sun of the 20th inst.
It would appear that President Harding has been reading The Negro World regularly, for the very same things promulgated by the Hon. Marcus Gayvoy for the last four years. President Harding contends, in unrelenting measure, or to quoque him verbatim, he says: "The Negro must have a chance to make good." "The Black Man must receive political and economic equality as a matter of justice and national welfare." "Surely we shall gain nothing by blinking at the facts." "The South should cease narrowing the Negro's political rights." (Special notice to "weak-knuckle white Negro.") "The Negro should seek to be the best possible black man and not the best possible imitation of a white man. Racial amalgamation there cannot be."
Opposed to social equality
"Men of both races may well stand uncompromisingly against every suggestion of social equality." "Expectedly would I appeal to the self-respect of the colored race. I would indicate in it the wist, to improve itself as a distinct race, with a heredity, a set of traditions, an array of aspirations, all its own."
Well, we have read this in the columns of The Negro World as "we are so accustomed to every week it wouldn't have attracted so much attention, but when it is set forth by the highest Caucasian, of the United States, truly we

We wonder what our Caucasian
members and their Negro puppies will

the doctrines of the Hon. Marcus
Garvey.

EDITORIAL NOTES
The impassive and resourceful Japanese are now accused of having raised the question of "racial equality" at the Versailles Peace Conference, with the view to winning the sympathy and moral support of all darker subject races, and not particularly because they (the Japanese) love them or believe in racial equality (except for themselves). The aforementioned of the Japanese in this country from the Americas, particularly noticeable. Their statements, writers, artists and publicists have not gone out of their way to say anything particularly strong or striking about the American Japanese problem in this country. Their impassiveness, evasiveness and diplomatic craftiness and cunning, discovers that "our oriental Japanese brothers" in the desolation of despair, have been playing and still are, both ends against the middle, and the fear that they will be finally classified as Negro race, not white race, and that they are a white race, which they are not because they have been amused with the tar brush and "the damned spot will not out."
The Chinese are not so snippish as these little Japanese bantams, and have not that polite and studied aversion to Negroes as the Japans. The Chinaman feels a sense of brotherhood to the black. He is frank and sympathetic socially, agreeable and not ashamed of contact with black men. The Chinese Government has recognized the worth and ability of black men, who have given to China residency, and who have paid the noble价位 of so many character. The writer personally knew one such who was selected by one of the great Chinese shipping companies to be its manager, and he acquired himself in that position to the entire satisfaction of the Chinese people, and the directorate. We have never heard of (though there may be) instances where a Japanese firm has shown equal consideration to a Negro sojourning in that country. Li Hung Chang and Wu Ting ting freely criticised in the interviews the lynching actures in America and even went so far as to suggest remedies for the breaking down of race prejudices and the ultimate solution of the vexed problem. We haven't heard of any Japanese, of light and leading, going quite as far as this.
The clever British, who control all the cables, kept us well informed about the troubles of the Spaniards in Morocco, but they have been as silent as clams about the attack of the fighting Abysinineans against the British outposts in East Africa recently. One of these famous punitive expeditions was being organized in East Africa against the Abysinineans, which the Abysinineans had to fight in a hostile function organized by the British in Africa, to possess themselves of the lands and treasures of the Africans, as for instance, Bonin. It is more than likely that the Abysinineans gave this expedition and the British invaders a good liking, and that the English press had to record it.
We heartily commend the spirit of the following editorial from the pen of Chester A. Franklin, an ablo and brilliant young editor of the West. We Negroes can, if we will, win in the same way the respect of other races as that accorded to the Jews by observing with religious devotion, the history and traditions of our race. The U N I A is endeavoring to awaken the racial consciousness of the Negro, and to bring him to see that "In native hearts and native sworda the only hope of freedom is to be raised once said." Race is the key to thirsty self-Respect Wins Admiration for the Jew
"The observance of the Jewish New Year Monday and Tuesday of this week brings once again into sharp relief these wonderful people who are our neighbors. Out in the residence districts where we live and down town amid the tall buildings and canon-like streets, the closed door of the Jewish merchant attack4 the respect he felt for the customs of his father, his recognition that there are finer things than money, and proved his willingness to live his own life no matter what other man think of him. Because he respects himself, he wins our admiration. It is not the money of the Jew, nor his racial integrity; it is not his education or his good manners, but his respect for his own that we pay tribute to most of this. As it should be, he can look up, and think up. Lot him see the stars even if he must live on the earth. Let him feel in his breast a touch of the Infinite Spirit that makes him superior to difficulties, and he then is of the stuff of which heroes are made.
"What matters it that the fire burns the flesh if it purifies the spirit Martyrdom in Russia is grievous, but out of the persecution comes the strong heart, the abiding faith, that has made the splendid Americans who took a holiday Monday and Tuesday. Whatever is, is right. Nothing really worth while is bought cheaply. Out of the storm and strife of maintaining their identity, Jaws have come to be the philanthropist, the soul leaders of the world. If you doubt, read the list of donors to the men whose time is most available to do works of service. "We only hope that our trials and tribulations will make us able to express ourselves, in larger expiations, bigger fellowship, and show enduring patience, as it has the neighbors whose stories were silent this week." - Edith Kanner Kansas City Call.
The Negro has set a long journey.
shad, and it behooves all of us. *pjg* guard on our armor, stop bragging and dreaming and try our best to catch up with the procession. We have much to learn and much more to unlearn respecting our real status socially, politically and economically in this country. One of the things we have got to learn is that we will serve be permitted to merge our destiny with that of the dominant race, and that we must be people. Nothing is more certainly written than the fate of this. We have been feeling ourselves for more than fifty years, but the period of distillation has begun—wake up Negroes.
COL. ROSCOE CONKLING SIMMONS
A lady trader of the Negro World has sent us for comment a clipping from the Dayton Evening Herald, containing an extract from an address delivered by Rococo Conkling Simmons before the M C A. of that city, in which, among other men, he advised colored men to think less of Africa, which he designated as a "Fool Parade." We gained these shores almost in the hour that welcomed the American white. We have brought together, driven back every face and presented to history the greatest of all governments. Though passion may now and then embitter, they can never separate the hands that God has joined to this task." Then the "distinguished phrasemaker" discussed disarmament and emitted a mouthful of language that must have sounded oracular. He said, on this subject, "As long as the oceans divide and ambitious survive, war will stir hearts to action." This is an old saw, vit. "And there shall be wars and rumors of war," etc.
"White people will find that their great support in time of trouble is the American Negro at their door."
The good lady who favored us with this cutting evidently takes the loquacious Rosace as seriously as he takes himself. As a word painter and phraserman, Rosace is a sul genera.
He is eloquence personified, but eloquence and the ability to spill it before gaping audiences is as sounding brass and tinkling symbols if the man behind them is not so bright for whom he essays to speak with great sounding words and in well rounded periods, as though he were authorized to do so.
What does Roscoe Conkling Simmons represent politically, racially, morally? He has been before the country for some years, and we have yet to learn what or whom he represents politically or racially or what he has ever done e-cept to commercialize the slight strain of Negro blood in his black and tan anatomy, and to pose as a leader, and whom he lead* We refuse to take this freckled adventurer seriously. To us he is one of a large group of "Colored Men" who are interchangeably Negroes, "Colored Men, and Cubans, who have found the Negro race a profitable source of revenue in political campaigns, and in between—and who have applied to their own personal uses all the cash that white people have given them for taking the kind of rot and nonsense which has made the Colonel conspicuous as the dean of the profession of dead ones," who persist in believing that they are still alive. The Colonel is a joke.
A CONSTRUCTIGE PROGRAM FOR THE NEGRO
A CONSTRUCTIGE PROGRAM FOR THE NEGRO
October 24. 1921
October 24, 1921
The Editor: Negro World, 58 W. 182th Street, New York City
Hit Believing that the policy of the "Negro World" was sincere when I first read a copy of the paper at Winchester, England, I did not time after my arrival in Canada to gain a complete understanding of the principles and why we have built such a magnificent structure of Negro culture, supported by intellectual, social, economic and political aspirations of our noble Race.
Accepting your declaration to the world—to Negroes especially—of "One God One Alm One Destroy" the charism call on us to an alertness by which we can achieve Unity. Your integrity, honesty, high ideal and courage are a beacon light on the hill-top illuminating the immediate surroundings and spreading its offulent rays far and wide bringing out latent ability, enervating our consciousness with a will to do and a determination to act without reservation or humbly towards all that we have been taught these few years to be our immediate wants; also to build that the future can testify to our progress.
On this account I desire to enreach on your space to voice an opinion on a topic which has been raised by a Negro weekly paper, published in this city on "West Indians and Citizenship." It is suggested that a canvass be made and after dinding out if there is no cause which can be fully taken as an objection why they should hamper the progress of colored Americans and do not function, which should in view of the fact that their voice is powerless in bringing about greater advantages and facilities to our Race. The loyalty and patriotism shown by Negroes all over the world to governments under which they may be domiciled or are in sympathy with have been proven by such an array of evidence that no doubt exists as to their sincerity on this score.
The world war brought into bold relief the wrongs and injustices under which Negroes were living; it also created a spirit of inquiry and investigation as to whether our best interests were served and if it were the concern of those to whom we were in allegiance; or perhaps, it were more self-hypnosis influencing us to supraplow how it was the result of our lives. Altallahoff, in line of disgrace this, inquiry, and investigation have proven that our best interests were not served because we are the ode to serve ourselves in all phases of human endeavor. As taught in all degrees of education.
WHITE SOUTH AFRICAN LEADER WHO WAS AGAINST SOCIAL EQUALITY WANTS IT NOW THAT NATIVES ARE GETTING TOGETHER FOR A FREE AND INDEPENDENT AFRICA
Colored People of South Africa Should Ignore Flea of Hertzog
WITH THE CONTRIBUTING EDITOR
HUERTT M. HARRISON
Bloomfontein, Oct. 15, 1973. Outlining the party's policy at the Nationalist Congress today, General Hertzog said a distinction had to be made between the natives and the colored people. They were two totally different groups, and they could not be treated on the same basis. The native desire for education and development of the native development of the native meant to the white man. The guest policy was territorial segregation to lead finally to industrial segregation. The native would then have an opportunity
THE BROWN MAN LEADS THE WAY
A Review of The New World of Islam," by Lothrop Stoddard, M. M. S.H.D (Harv.) Published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, 1921. (Concluding Part)
[I trust that I will not seem unduly assertive if I take this opportunity to protest against the 14 glaring typographical 'errors' and the others not so glaring which the printers put into the first part, this is the week, and I make bold by beg that they henceforth have morey on my stuff]
The new and awakened Islam had its roots in the consciousness of humiliation with which the lenders of the people faced the fact of subjection to white Christian Europe. This subjection was not only political; there was also the cultural superiority of the European peoples. Their were the new advances on the older knowledge of the world and its importance, which they had harnessed up the mighty forces of earth and air and sky and converted them into servants of their "will to power" over other human beings. The leaders of the brown man's world forsoak was that truth which has been stated in "When Africa Awakes," namely that "Never until the black man's knowledge of nitrates, machinery, textiles, on-gipering, etc., shall at least equal that of the white will the black man be able to be successfully with him." They made up their minds that, brown man must go to school—even if he had to learn from the white.
But they also perceived that a part of the difficulty they inside their world and that its removal must precede the removal of that part which lay outside and illuminated great and important issues, must first be grappled with. The first great necessity, therefore, was one of Regeneration. And to this task of regeneration they first addressed themselves "The messianic hope of Mumbaid" and its bloody but abortive uprising accustomed to the violence of Sudan under the powerful Nakechabba in Turkey and China.
It was a more strong fire flaring up here and there then, divided into two sides, sloned masses more discouraged and anathetic than before.
Outbursts of local fascism against the methodical might of Europe and the United States long preparation and complete coordination of effort were necessary if Islam was to have any chance of surviving. Much men also realized that they must study Western methods and adaptech of the Western technique of power.
This new realization expressed itself on the one hand through the new type of religious fraternities like the Senusira, in Algeria, the Khwan in Arabia and the Balad movement in India, and, on the other, through the propaganda of a new group of thinkers like Djelmian and Ahmed Bey Agayoff. The new fraternities, of which the Senusira is a fair type, devoted themselves to elevating the morals of the people, giving them education and enlightenment, uplifting their souls and welding them together in a discipline, inner and outer, which is as great as it is unprecedented. Mr. Stoddard describes these organizations, but as makes no mention of the Bahal Movement—a most significant off-shoot of the Mohammadan Information. For even though the Bab and his successor, Bahal'allah suffered martyrdom at the hands of Mohammad tyrans, they and their more famous successor Abbas Efandi (better known as Abdub Ha) must still be reckoned as Moslem reformers. This purely spiritual who follow the Bahal teachings in western lands are a living proof of the spiritual superiority of regenerated Islam over obsessive Christianity. The work of the thinkers and scholars has been manifold. In all the Islamic countries they have striven to evoke a group response to their native heeds. Sometimes the appeal was put in terms of religion, sometimes in terms of that shifting reality of Islam, and this has been born within the great Far Islamic movement in and in the various movements of Islamic nationalism in Egypt, Turkey, Pakistan, Turkistan and elsewhere.
to develop and become a more valuable member of the community. There had always existed the color bar, but there should be equality of rights for each color in its own territory. Native segregation would open the way for fast treatment of colored people, who, partly Europeana, would finally have to be treated as whites. Whites could not be segregated among the native and colored people. He advised therefore, segregation for the native and the final absorption of the colored people.—Evening News, London, October 15, 1921.
joint result of these is a real "international" of Islamic peoples (mainly brown, but also black and yellow) which keeps England and France in a perpetual fit of the jumps at the thought of what might happen should Japan, the foremost colored nation and the leader of this group, assume the leadership of this group or cast in her lot with it. Every Moslem country is in communication with every other Moslem country, directly, by means of telegrams, telegrams, traders and postal exchanges; indirectly, by means of pamphlets, leaflets and periodicals. I have met with Cairo newspapers and Punisher, Constantinople, newspapers in Barna and Bombay; Calcutta newspapers in Mohammerah, Kochi and Punisher. All of which give point to the thesis which I expounded in this column some time ago on "The Theory and Practice of International Relations Among Negro-Americanes." And, in spite of mutilum ignoramuses, it still remains a necessary part of our preparation for ultimate "codemation." In late war that intensified the unrest in the Middle East, as Mr. Stedard abundantly proves. In the first place, when the Sultan Abdul Hamid who was also the Caliph of Islam—sand the call for a Johad or Holy War
It was not the fat failure which Alasie gave at the time. As a matter of fact, there was trouble in practical commander Allied troops. Script broke into a tumult smothered only by overwhelming British reinforcement, and insurrection that drove the Italians headlong to the const. Persia, who was free from Turkey only by prompt Russo-British intervention; while the Italian scene of fighting that required the presence of a quarter of a million Allies, the government has officially admitted that during 1915 the Allies Atlantic Africa possessions stood within half a mile of a cataclysmic insurrection. Colored men of commonness can now see how salty and shortsighted was the advice given by our educated but ignorant editor-leaders when they worked, and how hard work, fight and pray for Allied success. For it is obvious that if the Allies had lost before America went in the colored peoples now under British subjection in Africa and Asia would have won their freedom at the game time. In another way the war made for a tainting of the strings of Italian domestic pretense of the Allies furnished a ferment which is still at work.
During the war years the Allied statement had officially proclaimed that numbness had been being used to establish a new world order based on such nationalism and the liberty of all peoples. These pronouncements had then treasured and memorized the new order, the impulse for the East saw a peace settlement, but not upon those high professors, the impulse for the West, the treads, the fires with a moral indignation and sense of forebear.

Our author makes some comprehensive analyses of the present effects of Western contacts on the structure and institutions of the Mohammedan world. The chapters on The "West" and The "West." Political Change" and The "West." Economic Change" and "Social Change" will prove a liberal education to the Western American who may wish to know what's what in the international world of color. The book has a broad sweep: it utilizes Mr. Marcosson's "An African Adventure," it is not at all superficial in its treatment, Mr. Stoddard's errors are few and venial. He really considers the face of the wide social scope of the Arab world, and similarly limits his criticism of its economic program—which is far from being the gist of the thing—as his critical attentions must have shown him. He sometimes intimidates Europe.
President, at Birmingham, Urges That Political and Economic Equality Is Black Man's Right—Race Problem Is World's—Rids His Own Party Drop Plan of Lining Up the Colored Race as "a Mere Political Adjunct"
Birmingham, Ala., Oct. 11—For the first time in history a Republican President came into the heart of the South today and delivered a straight-from-the-shoulder talk on race problems. President Harding spoke to a great throng of Alabama, white and black, and told them pizпtly that, unless the United States is false to its professed democracy, the Negro must be accorded equality in things political, business and educational. He said:
“Race amalgamation, there can't never be. But I say to you now, whether you like it or that, you don't, unless our democracy is a lie, you must recognize that equality. I say that to all America North and South, and black and white.”
possible imitation of a while."
In his race problem speech, the President said:
“Man of both races may well stand in uncompromising against every mediation of social equality. Index: it would be helpful to have that word 'equality' eliminated from this consideration; to have it accepted on both sides that is not a question of social equality, but a question of recognizing a fundamental, eternal and incapable difference.
“Take first the political aspect. I would say let the black man vote when he is fit to vote; prohibit the white man voting when he is fault to vote. People would I appeal to the self-respect of the colored race. I would indicate in it the wish to improve itself as a distinct race, with a heredity, a set of other people, a group of people who are not the people who are not the problem of Africa. In America, of the Pacific, of the South Sea, of the world. It is the problem of democracy everywhere, if we mean the things we say about democracy as the ideal political state.”
Whitea Are Silant
The President was encircled by a great crowd of thousands who milled restlessly on their feet under a torrid Alabama sun. Two-thirds of his audience were white. From the colored section of the crowd came cheers and from the white section a silence that lasted for hours. Only one slight flutter of applause came from the white side of the semicircle during the entire address. That was when the President said: "The black man should be, and he should be encouraged to be, the best possible black man, and not the best pean moral turpitude as to he ignore the deliberate 'takery' of the Milner commission to Egypt. While Lord Milner's sincerity is vowed for, as we know on independent ground, by Mohammed Abdou, the roctor of Hassan, yet those who seek him to delude the Egyptians with false hopes while they settled with India and Russia well know that they were using his sincerity as they had previously used that of Colonel Lawrence with the Arabs. The fact that the Egyptian leader now in England is likely to get a qualified "independence" for Egypt is not due to any original sincerity of the English government, but rather to the fact that he has been chosen to than leader whom the British rejected because he really wanted independence unqualified.
Homer sometimes nods, and once in a while Mr. Stoddard tracks on a fact. There was no massacre in Alexandria before the British bombarded that city with a bomb. He lished on French and Egyptian authorities on the spot and on some unimpeachable British authorities like that of Wilfred Scawen Blunt. But at the worst, this is a small peek of "errors" in the book. The dard's book is a masterly splod of the facts of international Islam and as such is a welcome handbook into which the readers of The Negro World can deliver with pleasure and profit.
That Questionnaire
So far there has been but one response to the questionnaire, and that I did not see until it appeared in print. May I say here that I was not looking for answers to the questions to be answered, but I did not know how long the respondant may have looked in a book before answering. The only value of the text is in 'off-hand' answers. What I looked for were discussions on the merits of such a test and what it imports. But in any case, Judy had to pounce judge; and the acts which her name were not political, but punitive. They panalized any expression of opinion, even in a private letter, that carried any criticism of the British regime, and provided such forms of trial as are permitted for the trial of jury, the right to be faced by his accuser or to know who he was, and the right to have his case judged on good evidence or even on the original bill of indictment. So the answer given so cockurly is sheer nonence. But the judge still remain unanswered. But that's no matter, as I intimated before.
Moreover, my questions are not fair as a test for "the masses." They are fair, however, as a test for the "intellectuals" who should be able to teach the masses these things. Of course one must first learn in order to teach, and insolence and "ambiguousness" do not put one in the proper mood for learning. I am aware that anyone who feels like unamunterably to me may safely do to the Negro World as I never answer personal stirs in it? Whenever I do answer it is on a point of public importance to racial concerns, as when I carried on the "Crab-Barrel" controversy. H. I. H.

In his race problem speech, the President said: “Both races may well stand uncompromising against every suggestion of social equality. Index”, it would be helpful to have that word equality eliminated from this consideration; to have it accepted on both sides that is not a question of social equality, but a question of recognizing emotional eternal and inescapable difference.
“That first the political aspect I would say the black man vote when he is fit to vote; prohibit the white man voting when he is unfit to vote. Especially would I appeal to the self-respect of the colored race. I would indicate in it the wish to improve itself in race with a hardness, a set of traditions, an array of aspirations all its own.
No Loss of Rights
"Out of such racial ambition and pride will come natural segregations, without narrowing any rights such as are preceding in both rural and urban communities now in Southern States, assimilating incincentions and adding notably to the happiness and contentment.
"On the other hand, I would insist on equal education opportunity for both. This does not mean that both would become equally educated within a generation or two generations or ten stage where things as they then were mit the approval of its self-appointed judge.
Subject to the laws of all countries Norway example, the states fail完全 be given by Parliaments and constitutions on account of their inherent contradictions.
At a time when our Race is concerned with the big issues that face us as a people, it is not a question of citizenship or allegiance or even the repudiation of established loyalty which will show us up for the first time as ingratiate. Our loyalty has been proven by blood sacrificed and all of its people.
It is our inherent rights to these passages which are the natural heritage of all peoples; the ways and means to connect our broken history; our development without let or hindrance; self-exercise; self-preservation; the building of a State embodying all we can accomplish and a preparedness to meet the future unfaired. A conviction that we cannot manhood and womanhood a better place in the affairs of life.
Negroes everywhere, I cry with a stonentian voice "Be ye not deceived" for when the hour of our deliverance is near there shall arise false doctrines, disseminations shall be forced upon us. Steady therel: Steady: Hold the line Call out our reserves of defense-unity, solidarity, organization, steadfastness, unyielding faith to stick more fully to the course mapped out by the incompatible man of destiny on whose shoulders rest great burdens very little understood. Let your major thought be at all times, all places, race first. Negroes first, last and all the time. Negroes, whether West Indian or of other origin, are an important factor in every community in which they live and have contributed to the welfare of these United States by their brain, brain, intellect and lifeblood. What greater contribution and evidence can be given as their well wishes and friendly attitude, when at the building of the Panama Canal work that involved almost 100,000 people to back up General Goo, W. Goebbels, so that the opening can be accomplished on time and the occasion heralded as an achievement of American engineering genius; also characterizing the lofty spirit of the American people. This is only one of the several enterprises which prove that their support is not weak but strong, a way drawn to the American nation, far less that of our own race.
Mr. Editor, I feel confident that our colored American cousins after these many years of an amicable relationship will not give credence to an impugned incompatibility. The occasion calls for an open dental against the school of dentists, and the result of the response to think with any degree of seriousness that the article in question reflects the minds of our cousins whose advantages and sufferings have our warmst sympathy and active support for their amelioration. There is too much, at stake for us to start quibbling hi issues that are an impediment to progress. We can only try by way the enforcement of a cultural principle, an orderment—the whole army of quit.
In conclusion allow me to stress the matter of education. Every Newry publication must go on recoord and actively mold the characters and opt-look of the community striving for a worthy leadership and a confidence that will know no indirection when his own media may be offered to be its defense of those rights.
As we stand: Your-spirited to "very, challenging, thankfully" vision our solidarity, the forces of disintegration will retreat and the light of an ambient Negro culture will be a bulwark of strength and a tower of sergei against all marvel of byproudness, giving that the future of the world is the most important. I am so旨byday and bialing that I am a small, "Nero" of all people of Africa; no matter, detying, from what even so far, all the others, the world, and all the
generalities. Even men of the same race do not accomplish such an equality as that. They never will. The Providence that endowed men and widely unequal capacities and capabilities and energies did not instant any such thing.
Problem World-Wide
"I can say to you people of the South, both white and black, that the time has passed when you are entitled to assume that this problem of races is peculiarly and particularly your problem. More and more it is becoming a problem of the North and most of the South, in forcing on the black roots in America, of the Pacific of the North Sea, of the world. It is the problem of democracy everywhere, if we mean the things we say about democracy on the ideal political state.
"Let there be an and of prejudice and of demography in this line. Let the South understand the menace which the discouragement of dangerous passions lie in persuading the black people to forget old prejudices and to have them believe that, under the rule of whatever political party, they would be treated just as other people are treated, guarded all the rights that people have in the South, and to short, to regard themselves as citizens of a country and not of a particular race."
ground of habitation or silly differences which do not hold an ounce of sense. This is a clear, clean-cut issue and Negroes everywhere will govern themselves accordingly.
There is a wide field of legitimate subjects of interests to engage the attention of any anths, publicists and controversialists, and the foundation for stifle should be things of the past.
It may perhaps be suggested that this letter has left out more far-reaching ideas on the subject. I do not intend to engage in a controversy and will be glad if it serves the purpose of letting the reader be the end of an anterior enterprise.
Any man, or group of man, who strive to influence the minds or conduct of any other group by introducing far-fetched issues outside of their knowledge take a responsibility on themselves skin to looking after the third party. It should be self-evident to all who think for any length of time that nothing else but a harmful purpose is the reason for advocating such a dastard policy against ourselves. A constructive program must become the concern of all those who would lead our race somewhere. Thanking you. Very pleased.

Attack on Kenya Colony by Abyssinian Raiders Considered Pregnant with Significance
LONDON, Oct. 26. A press telegram from Stahobi announces that "Abyssinian raiding parties have crossed the border in to the Kenya Colony." It concludes, "The situation is believed to be serious." This last phrase is pregnant with significance.
By WM. ANTHONY AERY
HAMPTON, VA., Oct. 27.—That the time has come for the black people of the world to play their part in helping to Christians the 400,000,000 Africana, who are suffering and dying through ignorance and exploitation; that Africa must contribute to the spread of Christianity through the work of American Negroes who feel some responsibility for their brothers in Africa; and that Mohammedanism can only be checked by Christianity, through the consolation of educated leaders who will make sacrifices for their fellow-men—these ideas were recently presented at Hampton Institute, by Prof. J. E. K. Aggrey of Livingstone College, Salisbury, N.C., a Gold Coast native, who came to America at the age of 23 and, after 23 years of training, was eventually selected as a member of the African Education Commission, which spent 14 months in travel under the leadership of Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, educational director of the Philips-Stokes Fund.
More raids by the Abbasinians and Gallas upon the rich nomad tribes of the north, the Turkana, Suk Rendille, and Samourn, are of frequent constriction at this season, and are guarded worth recording by telegram, in that they do not in any way affect the European settlers. To such raids, however, has been attributed an increase of cattle disease in the colony, and posts of King's African Rifles have been established along the frontier to prevent them. This may explain what the press correspondent means by saying: that the British have evacuated Gadmaqquana and Sulemuddo without any casualties.
Gynecological Division of Bellevue to Be Directed by Him Irrespective of Patient's Race
NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—Despite a busz of underground protest by nurses and internes at Bellevue Hospital, Dr. Russell Nelson, a young Negro physician, will come to Bellevue January 1 as an intern in charge of the gynecological division, handling maternity cases, among others, without regard to the race or color of patients. There have been other negro physicians at the hospital, but never, as far as is known, in the division Dr. Nelson will have charge of.
Kenya *Colony* is protected on the north by a trunk of arid country, with little water, about 200 miles deep from the Guangxi River to the frontier.
This makes it almost impossible for Abyssinian "tride" as such, to cause a "fearful situation." What, then, can be the meaning of this note of alarm? Are the reported raids really advance operations of an organized attack? This may well be since during the war the British undependently lost considerable prestige among the native from Alexandria to Cape Town, and on all sides there is considerable disaffection.
Dr. Nelson was an interne at Believe for the six months prior to January 1 of this year, handling tubercular patients. Since leaving Believe he has been at the Sea View Hospital, Staten Island, also working in the tuberculosis division. His application to be returned to Believe as an interne, specifying gynecology, was recently accepted by the hospital trustees. It is expected he will be at Believe for the next year or year and a half.
Professor Aggrey, who was introduced by Prindipal Gregg of Hampton, gave a vivid account of his $20,000-mile journey through Sierra Leone, Liberia, Gold Coast, Nigeria, Cameroon, Belgian Congo, Angola, South Africa, and East Africa. He said:
The Afghanians argue that we have been forced to code the port of Kushmary to the Italians, whom they defeated with immense loss at Adowa; that we are being driven from Egypt, and that our hold on India is weakening; they have before them, too, the means impiens of the Moors against other Europeans.
Dr. George O'Hanlon, General Medical Superintendent of Bellevue and allied hospitals, described Dr. Nelson to a reporter for the world as "a competent, polite and efficient young doctor." He said Nelson is twenty-four, but did not remember from medical college he was graduated.
If you would not be difficult for them to send a force of 10,000 horsemen to garrison the settlement of Usasin-Glan, Taifalim and the Rift Valley. To meet this is doubtful whether the colony could raise more than five to eight hundred armored soldiers and a certain number of native troops on whose side it would be unwise to rely entirely, maintain their loyalty in the campaign against the Germans was unquestioned.
Dr. O'Hanlon made it clear there has been no petition signed or other formal protest made in any way to the Bellevue authorities. He recognises, however there has been critical talk clinically by a group of young white internets. He said a member of the hospital staff had gone to those men and informed them in no uncertain words that Dr. Kline would undoubtedly come to the hospital, intimating that internes who objected might get out.
"Black people do not prefer to worship the god of Mohammed. The white man, however, comes and says, 'God is white and the devil is black.' The Mohammedans say, 'Our God is just like you!'

Oh, lily, inflict the folds!

And let them shield the only Flag
That black man ever knew.
The stave both walled through fire

Three hundred years of pain.
Protect the emblem of his gree
That freedom be not vain.
He kneels beneath the Stars and
Stripes
To breathe this humble plea.
Let Lottery light the path of slaves.
Who struggle to be free.
If spanned banner thrills your heart.
His emblem do not hate;
His flag is martyr heritage—
Its price deeds brave and great.
The hand that holds it has been
chained—
It burns its shockless bold;
The bain has striped the son who
wraps
In its protecting fold.
Do not bath the banner won.
Peace be with you.
How can you hope that God will save
The Red, the White and Blue?
White man gaze not with haughtiness
Upon the black marie flag?
It means a new-born nation's hopes—
So deem it not a flag.
It is his fundest hope and pride—
His spirit's sweet dream.
So do not hang your hand in pride
When light its color rose.
The slave has been your faithful
friend.
Help save the flag for you.
Respect his banner as he did
The Red, the White and Blue.
For every nation has a flag.
Look on the struggling slave.
And vow you will not envy him
The emblem heavegain.
The slave is green in his
As Glory stare are thine—
The slave reward bought with a price
As precious and divine.
Paid for with stripes and martyrdom
His life for us he gave.
Corn not the Red the Black and

OLD GLORY'S DEFENSE
I can not insult at our flag.
But I reverse the slaves:
Whom God prepared for liberty.
On this side of the waves.
I what shall I do that I
Cast shadow of defense.
Upon our emblem—God forbid!
I love its very name.
No other banner have I known—
Never guard on foreign sky;
I lived beneath Old Glory's folds
Perchance neath them may die.
It was the flag I waved in youth
and in death.
I folded it over virgin breast.
Wrapped dreams within its fold.
My tears have mingled with its stars
On Decoration Day.
In agony I've clipped it tight
When soldiers marched away
I ve trembled when the Kaiser sent
His taunts across the seas.
Old Glory's old friend
I had to comfort me.
However dark the night may be,
I'll hold our banner tight;
If I should perish it naught;
But let our colors fly.
No traitor I because I love
The flag God gave the slave:
The reward he gave him
Reward that he gave
The heart that pitles not the slave
Who won through grief and pain;
The emblem that he waves beats on
For freedom all in vain.
The captive has fought hard to save,
The Red. the White and Blue;
The black has the only flag
That black man has the waves.
Despite not dusky hands that wave,
The Red. the Black, the Green.
But cheer the slave who turns his eyes
Toward the southern queen.
Thus patriots well truly be.
And lips beyond the waves:
Will whisper "Glory's stripes were
enough to sled the slave."
"They educated Afro youth.
And not proved the flag they won;
And proved all the world they loved
King Minelle's brave son!"
Shine on, Old Glory, through the gloom
The star shall ever glow.
If they were slaves of slaves
For God will make it so.

I've forgotten the song of the Homeland.

And have lost the audacious ring
Of the old, old song, played by the band
Back in the sweet Homeland.
I've forgotten the song of the Homeland.
To let me to Tejera's strain.
Like the notes I've heard played by a band!
In Liberty's hall of fame.

O Anglo-Saxon mothers, hark!
How would you like to see
Your boy eased by a mademed mob
In this land termed as free?
Alas! He was a man
You brought to manhood's blood
Bound to the stake and watch his flesh
Writes while the flames consume?
Behold the faun hair you smoothed
Light up his face with dame.
While you looked on and valyled called
On heaven's outraged name?
Hear daring lips imploring you
To break the captain's臂.
While you saw his pies
And bound your frantuish hand?
Ah! could you bear to see the hands
So ill white and fair
Break into souvenire for men
Who had gone mad to share?
Ah! when you take your blue-eyed boy
into your loving arms
And pray to God to keep him safe,
To protect from all harm.
This is a great power
And when you breathe a power
Ask God to save the boy that's black
As well as yours that's fair.
God made all mothers' hearts the same;
Beneath the colored skin
There beats a heart as warm with love
As thine which throbs within.
Lest charred remains and broken heart
Some day should be thy lot.
Ak God to shield the youth that's
Lest thine should be forget.

WE have lost our president of Detroit 122 Division.
A man of great tact and lofty vision.
He could talk eloquently without ever causing any verbal collision.
He could talk on any subject, from politics to religion.
Many felt as though they could cry
When the time came to wish him good-bye.
Others felt what a treasure they had lost.
While others wished him success at his new post.
Our president was a man who was very wise;
He could keep off anyone who came to him with lies.
Many people thought that he was a fool.
Because under any condition he was always calm and cool.
We are glad that through many a trial success he has won;
It shows to others if they desire success that the mits of detriment they must do.
And when they show to the world their worth
Success will be theirs ere long.
Long shall we remember these. O worthy president.
Our minds shall ever be on higher things bent.
We hope that the cries of joy will the air rent.
And that success shall be yours wherever you are sent.
At night before we lie down to sleep we should pray

CHRISTIAN GOSPEL A SOLVENT FOR RACE PROBLEMS
Dr. Hunter Saya That "All Africa Is Restless"
HAMPTON, Va. Oct. 21—That South Africa has a very big race problem was the opinion expressed by Dr D. A. Hunter, of Lovedale, South Africa, who for many years has been connected with the famous missionary school, at Lovedale—a school similar to Hampton in aim and method—in his recent Sunday evening address, delivered in Ogden Hall*Hampton Institute.
"Some men dream of a white South Africa," said Dr. Hunter. "We have the problem that you have in the United States with the ratio reversed. We have a ratio of six to seven million natives. We have three in Africa. I think we will all agree, that the solution is the Gospel and the Spirit of Jesus Christ."
Dr. Hunter described in some detail the all-round work that is being done. Loveville, to steer the natives toward a better training work. The Africans are showing deep interest in educating their children in spite of hard times. During the past five years there has been developed, within one mile of Loveville, a new College. This institution will minister to the needs of the Bantu people.
Dr. Hunter declared that, on account of the general restlessness throughout all Africa, the right time had come to do something worth while for the natives of this vast region.
The challenge has come from Africa for the reason of the world—particularly the colored people of America—to rise up and help Africa. There are 5,000,000 in South Africa calling for help; 4,000,000 in Angola; 17,000,000 in Nigeria; 2,000,000 on the Gold Coast; 3,000,000 in Liberia, and 2,000,000 in Sierra Leona.
“Africa needs about 1,000 young men and women now. In one place out of all the countries, there is no nurse there to teach the people. There is no doctor there at all. The men are dying for the want of the right kind of food.
“The time has come when somebody from here, either by her or by person, should make up his or her mind to touch Africa and give that continent to young people. Young people, expects to go soon. He is going to be an entrant wedge to that great continent.
"All Africa is restless. In this country there is also restlessness. Africa is bubbling and is anxious to reach up its hand to God. The time has come when black people themselves ought to do something. Hampton educated Booker Washington, who showed that black people are appreciative by standing up to the white people who help carry on the work that Max Yergan is going to do. I hope that you Hampton boys and girls will not fail.
"There is no Y. M. C. A. in Nigura,
none on the Gold Coast, none in the
Cameroon, and practically none in
South Africa. There are over 60,000,000
people among them. We are sending only
Max Yergan.
"The white man will bring his gold, business acumen and railways but the Negro is going to bring his child-like faith. What the black man wants is faith. What the white man wants is faith. We believe in Him and we are going to teach the world that child-like faith. "We must make our contribution to Christianity. If Africa is going to contribute anything to Christianity, it must be done by our brothers on our kinship, teaching our brothers so that we may make that contribution."
Dr. Aggrey spoke at one of the public meetings of the colored student T. M. C. A. Officers' Conference of the Middle Atlantic Territory.
Rev. Channing H. Tobias, one of the secretaries of the F. M. C. A. colored men's department, expressed the belief that American Negroes, who have been well trained, will give head to Africa's call.
HAMPTON DEFEATS SHAW, 7 TO 6
By CHARLES H. WILLIAMS
HAMPTON, VA, GOT 27 — Although
Hampton and Shaw began playing
football in 1907, Hampton played its
first game in the League Park at
Raleigh on Friday, October 11, 1911.
Understaffed skies and with weather made to order, the two teams battled for three quarters without either being able to score. The Shawites entered the game with considerable confidence, and 18 to 9. Hampton had two chances to score and Shaw one chance in the three periods. The defensive work of both teams was effective. Porter gentilhomme and 22, "against" for Hampton, added Shaw, but she could not stop. The punitive work of Hampton for Hampton and Young for Shaw received and advanced kills well; Delhouset, for Hampton, all center played in old-time form, while Legon at full for Shaw played statue ball. The last quarter was exceptional. It opened with both teams trying to score. Hampton scored 19 points, Appleton 16, Williams 16, Shaw's defense and for team touchdowns. His interception was perfect, scoring Hampton miss but of the play. The goal was missed. The Shawites won.
eleven inquisitive punishing players
very seemed certain.
Thomas received the black out.
In the first four minutes of play they
stained the jiggle behind their goal
line without once hitting it. Goal was
bucked and the score stood 7 to 6 in
both teams; displayed, some of the
old-time, fighting spirit that has made
their school famous. The game was
the cleanest and hardest fought
games ever witnessed in Raleigh. The
wrestlingman, exhibited, added much
to the pleasure of the spectator.

DR. RILEY IN WILMINGTON, DEL.
Dr. Goe. B. Riley of the parent body spent four weeks in Washington, Del., and we wish to say that never in the history of the Negroes of our city have we ever enjoyed the stay of any person so much. He held meetings in every church in our city and also made house to house visits among our people, the member and friend of the organization, and appreciated. We certainly had glorious meetings with our membership was largely built up and much good was done by Dr. Riley in his uniting efforts in explaining the true Garveyism as founded on the U. N. I. A. and the Unconditional Freedom of Mother Africa. The members gave him their loyal and heart support, turning out every night to greet him and the public in greeting him to him and the followers of the great cause of African freedom. We want to say also for this division, though small as it is and some of our members have not had a day's work to do for more than six months, we raised in public collection, African Construction Loan, and the Black Star Line more than $10 per benefited member. We were making a light to purge, helping to build for a meeting place, but we also announced to us that the parent body was at this time in need of our help financially to true friends as loyal friends and true followers of the great cause, put away our plans, rolled up our sleeves, went in our uphoards, trunks and cheets, got all of our rusty pennies, nickels and dimes for the parent body and advised all of our friends to do what they could. Those who could help have done so, and encouragement to the great and noble cause to make in every way Dr. Riley's trip a great success. We want to say for Dr. Riley he is the right man in the right place. He knows no failure, he invaded every church in our city—colored—and was made welcome by their pastor and officers with a warm handshake and greeting. "God bless you, come again, you are welcome, nothing that has never been said in William Jennings' speech to the members of any organization, not even religious bodies. Dr. Riley, with his persuasive manners and his gentlemanly conduct, has won the hearts of not only the members of our organization but the people at large and we as members

Remarks on Negro Equality "Unfortunate and Mischievous" Says Harrison—Address Ill-Advised View of Some Senators—Calder and Edge Declare Birmingham Talks Was a "Courageous Step"
"Of course, every rational being desires to see the Negro protected in his life, liberty, and property. I believe in giving him every right under the law to which he is entitled, but to encourage the Negro, who in some States, as in my own, exceeds the white population, to strive through every political avenue to be placed upon equality with the white as a blow to the white civilization of the country that will take years to combat.
"If the President's theory is carried to its ultimate conclusion, namely, that the black person, either man or woman, should have full economic and political rights with the white man and woman, should have equal economic and political rights with the black man can strive to become President of the United States, hold cabinet positions, and occupy the highest places of public trust in the notion. It means that white women could work under black men in public places as well as in all trades or professions."
"I am against any such theory because I know it is impracticable, it is unjust, and it is destructive for the best ideals of America. Place the Negro upon economic and political equality with the white man or woman and the friction between the races will be aggravated.
"The President is right in that the race question is a national one and not confined "to any section and his unfortunate and mischievous utterance on the subject will be deprecated by people in every section of the country who believe in the preservation of the white civilization."
Senator William Calder of New York and Walker Edge declared that the President's Birmingham speech was a courageous step on the Executive
GRAND OPENING
THIS WEEK
"I applauded the President's speech," Senator Calder said. "It was a timely speech, and right to the point. I heartily endorse the President's view that the Negroes should have political equality, even if it enables them to elect colored men to the United States Senate.
"We have one Negro on the New York State Assembly and two on the New York City Board of Aldermen and I cannot lift the highs of their service."
Senator John Hook of Nebraska said: "All these digital questions give out of population feeling. I think it is right in principle, but I don't believe the race question can be solved by argument. For that reason the President's talk will not do anything to improve the situation."
Senator Watson, Democrat, of Georgia, said: "It is an unfortunate thing when the President of the United States accepts an invitation to speak in such Southern States as Georgia and Alabama and then find it necessary to lecture their people about the treatment of the Negro. As the President

ENTHUSIASM IS ONE OF THE BIG KEYS TO SUCCESS
INDIFFERENCE never changed plg from into steel and steel into engines; nor perfected radio-activity for busi-
ness and private use.
From the time Marcia Garvey was twenty, he hold an enthusiastic vision of great accomplishment for himself and his race. He believed in himself and his race.
Mr. Negro man or woman, do you believe in yourself and your race?
You need enthusiasm, vision, imagination. You need all these things in order to visualize the possibilities of yourself and your race and just in that proportion you have enthusiasm, vision and imagination you will contribute to the great accomplishment of your race.
ENTHUSIASTM; VISION and IMAGINATION are important factors in an individual as well as a race's development, but above all the Dallas must accompany these otherwise we can't get very far.
Great prizes always can be won by enlisted energy, absolute integrity, immense courage and a great vision.
Mr. Negro man and woman show that you possess these qualities by using the coupon below and buying as many shares as you can in the Negro Factories Corporation.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 27—President Harding's Birmingham speech on equal rights for Negroes was most unfortunate, to use the universal comment of Southern Senators and Congressmen here today. Northern political leaders in Washington for the most part approved of the President's views, though some of them doubted the wisdom of uttering those views in the heart of the South. Almost without exception Southern-her们 declined to comment publicly. Then, the plegmates of the President although they were proud would should be in good end and would be in good social feeling again. They predicted that the President's remarks, if they were intended as a wedge to split the "Bold South," would have the opposite effect. "It will make the Democrats more solid than ever," several of them remarked.
Time inappropriate
The First Southern Senator to comment for publication was John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, who though approving of the spirit of the President's address, stated that the Negro should be confined to the political presentative granted by State laws. Senator Pat Harrison, of Mississippi, at noon today made the following statement, which accurately expresses the views of a number of other Southmarshes who say that the time was inappropriate for public criticism of the President's act on words. The President's speech was unfortunate. Harrison of Mississippi, "but to have made it in the hearts of the South," which in South States of the Negro population presentables, was unfortunate in the extreme.

is a native of Ohio, he cannot possibly understand our situation in the South, where the population is almost equally white and black.
"There is no such thing as economic discrimination against the blacks in the South. They compete on equal terms in the production of our simple products. They get equal treatment from our merchants and from our bankers. They, themselves, have made no complaint of racial discrimination in economic matters."
"We are not going to permit any social or political equality of the kind the President advocates, because we know that it would make the destruction of civilization which our ancestors handed down to us."
INTERESTING COMMENTS ON EVENTS AT QUITTAN, AFRICA

Editor The Negro World:
Sir—While reading the different news items in your most valuable weekly dated October 1, 1921, I came in a contact with the "Notable Events at Quittan," by J. M. Stuart Young, as to be on page 11. The more I read the valuable bit of correspondence the more I became interested.

HOWARD EASILY BLANKS VIRGINIA NORMAL TEAM IN 26 TO 0 SCORE
HOWARD EASILY BLANKS VIRGINIA NORMAL TEAM IN 26 TO 0 SCORE
WASHINGTON. D. C. Oct. 27.—Howard University overwhelmed the eleven of the Virginia Normal and Industrial institute, 18 to 1, in the football game on Howard Athletic Field, Saturday, November 23. The Virginiaans were big, bussy players who probably outwitted the Howard boys slightly, but their expected offensive did not materialize. Neither team was able to score in the first quarter. Both showed powerful offensive work, and, although the Virginia's line appeared quite strong on the attack, its drive was not quite strong enough. When the "Blue and White" finally broke through the visitors' defenses, they smothered them under the two touchdowns which were credited to them so quickly in the second quarter that the Virginia boys were fairly amused. The further the game went the more pronounced became Howard's superiority.
During practically the entire second half Howard kept the ball in its position, but the Virginians held well when their goal was threatened. Four times the visitors held the Blue and White seven off, after they had pushed them up to their five-yard line. Once when the Virginians held Howard for downs on their five-yard line and upon the attempt to kick out, Howard blocked the ball and recovered it for a touchdown. Howard broke through three times and blocked the Virginians kick out.
For the visitors, the work of Captain Spratley, right-back back was good, and the painting of Full Back Dykes was a conspicuous feature. Howard had the ball and gave the game down fine, and made the touchdown one of two touchdowns, one of which netted about 25 yards. For the third time this season, the Howard machine emerged not only victorious, but unscored upon.

EDITOR: The Negro World!
Sir—While reading the different news items in your most valuable weekly dated October 1, 1921, I came a fact with the "Notable Events at Brush," by J. M. Stuart Young, as to be read on page 11. More, I read the valuable it of communication the more I interested.
Seeing that this "interesting and impressive ceremony took place on Wednesday, August 8, when the Commissioner Colonel Harding invested the Fla. of Awunqa with the King's Medal for Chiefa" and further seeing where the writer stated that "this was quite a unique occasion and the first time that a public function had been made of the investiture of the King's Medal." I became suspicious, and taken a retrospective view of British diplomacy as being manifested from time to time. It vividly brought back to my memory the cunning way in which England does things.
It must be remembered that that very day marked the third day sitting of the Second International Convention of Negroes at Liberty Hill, New York city, where Negroes from all parts of the world, including Africa, were gathered in one homogeneous whole to discuss means and ways for the redemption of the entire continent of Africa; therefore, England, being a professional cheker player, made the first move. This being a violation of the rules, it is up to to "carry" her, for this stock should move first. Stunt No. 1—Native chife and white folks came rushing in automobiles from all the surrounding districts, amidst loud detonations of cannon," white folks seating themselves before the Fear. Stunt No. 3—The Fox and the Crow" and "The Spider and the Fly" story began:
"Colonel Harding then turned to the gathering. In a spirited address he referred to his twenty-five years close fellowship with the Negro race of Africa, south east and west. He declared that this occasion was one of peculiar pleasure to him (I should say it was: to me it is both peculiar and suspicious), inasmuch as he had grown affectionately to recognise the sterling worth of the Fla of Awunaga. He (the Fla) was a man of sound character, one of nature's gentleman, agi he was proud to have been deputised by His Excellency the Governor to perform the present ceremony.
Stunt No. 3—Believing that his fastening words were not sufficient to knock suspicion and fear out of the Fla, he next proceeded to chain that the poor fellow by his neck with a "silver chain" while soothing the place, with the oil of fattiness, and at the same time informing him of the reasons why they were having that great joke at his expense by expressing "his confidence in his (the Fla's) loyalty to the Crown, and complimented him on the popularity which was proven by the great throng of well-wishers who had gathered to witness his success (7)."
Not being satisfied with the one big fish he had caught—turning around to the assembled crowds around the state umbrella, he hoped that all the chiefs there gathered would continue to show allegiance, and would be guided by the Fla's sound common sense (not intelligence) and perfect integrity."
The Fly Gaught in the Spider's Web
"In a brief but convincing reply, the
Fla then thanked the colonel" and continued by telling him "how ardently the Arwunagas had hoped to regain their lost peoples over the border. That Lome had been given to the French instead of remaining under British guidance, had hurt them in high degrees."
Stunt No. 4. "Seeing that they" had
him self," congratulations begin to be showcased on the Fla with the shaking of hands by both white and colored, French and English administrators; ex-commissioners, counsel-com missioners, captain, white folks singing, dancing, eating, drinking and breast bandaging and devil knows what all, all done just to keep the U. N. L. A. out of the Fla's heart, and the colors of the red, the black and the green from flying over Togoland.
These diplomatic honors seem to have electrified the poor fellow, so he continued to split a little more of his loyal promises by expressing "his gratitude to Excellency the Governor, and His Gradious Majesty the King for the honors conferred on him his pledged the rising generation of the Awunaga district to patrolion and obedience."
This simply goes to show that the fight is on. They are chaining down the native chiefs to British and French loyalty against the U. N. L. A. & A. C. L.
Negroes, wake up! We cannot afford to lose one moment longer. Put away your petty feasibles and personal hatred from among you! Stop trying to revenge your fellowman to satisfy itself. Subscribe to the African Redemption Fund! Gird yourselves with the armor of self-determination! Take the sword of perseverance in one hand and the Red, Black and Green in the other, let us use the power of Confidence, and march boldly armored to the city of victory, where we shall unchain the Flas and chiefs, and set our motherland free!

GO BIRDIE, GO AND TELL THEM
Go beautiful birdie, and tell them.
That I am going to them quite soon.
To join the band of the pure and true.
And to share with them creation's boon.
Go birdie, do go, tell them truly.
That it was not my wishes to roam;
And that it was not my own choosing;
To be so far away from my home.
Let them know it clearly and truly.
That it is one of their own from birth;
One of whom God has surely fashioned,
And has made from the pure and dark earth.
Tell them my locks are also woody.
And that my complexion too is dark;
That I cannot, could not deceive them.
For I have the true creation mark.
Tell them I will share in their pleasure.
Gladly partake in their sorrow too;
Be willing to join in anything.
In whatever they may have to do.
Birdie tell them how much it paines me,
How pitifully I sigh betimes;
To see that I'm not just now able,
To be forever with them of mine.
But birdie, do fly to them quickly,
And carry my message true and clear;
Assuring every dear Afrika's child,
That their own brother is very near.
That blessed land of purest creature;
I shall be waiting to welcome you.
With joy and gladness without measure.
But I doubt if once you should get there.
You will ever think of coming back;
For all good report said of that clime.
Is known to be an absolute fact.
But stay birdie and share the blessings.
For what I sincerely wish to know
Is placed I want to send you.
You will surely and willingly go.
For with gladness of heart I force;
As ordered by the Prodigial boy;
That when they shall receive my message.
Their hearts will be filled with pride and joy.
They'll be pleased to know I remember.
Though so very far I want to room;
That though, be it ever so humble.
Them, no, never, no place like

Sir: Some weeks previous to your arrival we had received several inquiries through our home office, Philippines American Co. Inc., Chamber of Commerce Building, Los Angeles, Cal. re the selection of American teachers in the United States for service in the Philippine Islands.
Apparently some friends of members of this firm are under the impression that colored American teachers not been given the encouragement nor consideration accorded others, and through us desire to learn all facts in the case.
Being personally acquainted with you and having been associated with you on several carnival occasions, is my motive for taking this matter up

BASS MEETING HELD IN BINCINN, TROUILLO, BANISH BONINIRAS BY U.N.E. A., SUBJECT: CONVENTION
On Sunday evening July 17th, the members of the U. M. I. A. and A. C. L. of the Trollie Branch Charter No. 158, passed a very loyal trust being entertained by members of our noble speakers on the subject of convention.
Our acting chaplain, Mr. Bennett, opened the meeting in the usual manner, but much praise has to be given for the column member in which he prayed God's guidance to be with those our honorable delegates who will be engaged in the second annual convention.
The speakers for the evening were Messaq, Bennett, our acting chaplain, H. F. Hunter, treasurer, W. J. Clark, evangelist, W. Douglas, teacher.
Each of these gentlemen gave up stirring addresses on convention, and each and every member was quite pleased, having spent each a happy Sunday evening.
Teacher W. Douglas, who was just from Cuba, gave a most lengthy address, and although the subject of the evening was Convention, he was permitted to speak to us of his travels in Cuba, and also of the good work done, or being done in Cuba by the U. N. L. A. workers.
We were quite glad to have such an enthusiastic speaker in our midst, and very much pleased we were, to know that Mr. Douglas had the pleasure of bearing our Excellency Marcos Garvey and was able to tell us of many things that we had to do. It was with very much regret that we had to close our meeting, draping our president, vice president and general secretary, of a chance to address the audience, but as we are always hearing them and still hope to hear them, they were excused. The meeting was brought to a close in the usual manner.

NEW PRESIDENT AND RECEIVED EXECUTIVE SECY
DETROIT DIVESION ELECTS
NEW PRESIDENT AND RECEIVED EXECUTIVE SECY
---
The Detroit Division of the U. N. I. A., on the 18th of October, 1821, elected Lawyer Alonzo D. Pettiford as its new president, to succeed Mr. W. O. Smyer, who has the privilege of another appointment. The new president is a man of both jurisprudence and business ability and shows good signs of administrative quality. Under him and from him much is expected. The masterful management of his second business meeting stammed him as a cool-headed, positive, and uncompromising personality; the most unique in our division's president Ridleyan educated dry-bone, self-conceived menace and scholastic narrowness must be brought to the judgment sent of mock respect by the intellectual hammer of the lawyer-president, Alonzo D. Pettiford. With the election of the new president the Detroit division has been reorganized and will be considered a security. On the 17th of October, 1821, building 1848 Russell street, with exception of the laundry, was leased by the division for one year with option to buy. The new president pledged to uphold constitutional government. Every bit of it." He was elected by a popular majority.
Mr F Levi Lord, the newly appointed executive secretary from the civil service department of the T. N. I. A., arrived in London on the 11th of October.
Mr Lord displayed signs of efficiency and fair play. His first financial report proper was better than any the people ever had from his department and proved satisfactory by the manner in which the members voted the bills to be paid with promissitude.
Mr. Edie left to teach music in the University of Frankfort, Kentucky. Mr. Edie was a member of our orchestra and is a graduate of both the Detroit and New York Conservatories of Music. The gentleman has also a marked degree of chemical knowledge and was cheered by the audience upon his introduction; he also joined the movement before he left. We wish him a sample success. The program for the 26 of October was very much of good taste. The orchestra played "Pearson." Mr. George Taylor sang a solo; Mr. C. Holmes, a baritone solo, and Arthur Owen gave us a splendid address. Mr. Owen is one of our new and energetic members and was cashier of the Northcross bank. He has caught the spirit of the U. N. L. A.
Church
The Rev M. M. C. Wright, pastor of Ebensart A. M. E. Church preached a splendid sermon Sunday, Oct. 22. His text was taken from the first chapter of Genesis: "And Jacob met Eaaw and said 'I have seen thy face as though I have seen the face of God.'" It was a real sermon and a splendid text. There will be a concert in the Church on November 10, at 8 p. m.

ST. LOUIS. MO.
The visit to this division of the secretary general, the Hon. F. A. Tohta, was the occasion for much pleasurable excitement. The honored, widest arrived here on the evening of November 11, to the energizing young man she had been meeting. His exerted arrival was announced by the division, only a day ahead of time, as a welfare committee was hastily arranged and posted, but not announcing the visit. The arrival at the call with Dr. Tohta, Mam the
to this division, he found a goodly turned to welcome him. After the formal introduction to the Critic, J. President Wheels of the new executive secretary and an admiss of welcome by the general secretary, M. C. A. Winthew, the Hm. F. A. Tooth took the stand and held applause.
The subject of his address was "Vacavium, the New Religion" and his hearsen all agreed that they had never before been so offended. The musical part of the program was taken care of by our excepteur Black Crown maître, the excepteur Abbey, the pieces rendered one of his own competition, entitled "When We Get Home" and "Iver There." The songs are a great credit to their composer. (A verse of each is reproduced at the end of this report.)
His Honor remained with this division for one week, during which he spoke to increasingly large audiences every night, reaching the south of successful appeal on the night of Sunday, October 18, when he spoke on the subject, "The Handwriting on the Wall." The visit of this great young man on October 18, Louis division, for he outlined the duties of officers and heads of auxiliaries so plainly as to leave no room for conjecture.
We can now see in the light of his remarks that the internal disunity which wrecked the division was the outcome of ignorance as to where authority belonged. But the Hon Touche has made the crooked path straight" and we are now making rapid headway under the able leadership of President S. R. Wheat. The St. Louis division unanimously passed a vote of thanks to the president general for sending them an executive secretary to take care of their affairs, and we hope before next convention to make everybody "cut up and take notice." Already we have started our own clinic. We have a community kitchen where out-of-work members are fed by their more fortunate brethren, and members are coming in daily. We hope to pay the first installment on our new hall before the end of this month.
Following are extracts from Mine.

The Editor
Dear Shr: Since, I have found it impossible to draw the attention of the foreign correspondent clerk in the Secretary General's office, by direct correspondence to said office, I think it my duty as a Negro to get it published that it may be read by one and all, and then, only then, that it may be read by C. Eclermon is in no way connected to the Branch No. 18 of the Cloe de Avila Division.
So far as I can understand this branch was organized by Mr. Cleghorn in April, 1839. The gentleman was made secretary of the said branch, and during the months of April, May, June and July he worked cheerfully for the upfit of the branch, everything going directly under the management of himself and Mr. A. O. Christie. But, unfortunately, he got reluctant just at the time his services were most needed. The president, Mr. Christie, was in some way dependent on his former secretary, who was the secondary tool his chance in ruling association and president. The decline of Branch No. 78 began at this juncture, and although the association had a bank account of $128, the secretary allowed the branch to get indicted to the parent body for the sum of $23.88.
During this period the officers and members of the branch had not yet fully grasped the meaning of the U. N. I. A. and A. C. L. But getting more and more intelligence of the association and more acquainted with the constitution, the members got determined to change officers.
Dr. G. A. McGuire sent several communications to the secretary giving information as to his first visit and reasons for came to the branch, these were kept by the secretary as though they were his own private business. And on arrival of Dr. McGuire he even tried to persuade him from paying visit to Liberty Hall. But Dr. McGuire was not to be decrypted. He left U.S.A. a commission of the U. N. E. A. and was determined to find out the wrongs of the branch. He proposed and then after investigation gave orders to his field secretary, Hon. Arnold Cunning, D. U. C. to reorganize Branch No. 78 on the 4th of March. This was done accordingly, and in a crowded hall. The present officers were nominated, elected and installed in office.
Mr. H. B. Clashborn was then put out of office. The members, were fully satisfied with their change of office and started anew, until this gentleman and other colleagues started a propaganda to help the branch. He has openly told the public that the U. N. I. A. and A. U. N. I. Cops. A. J. A. was beaten up and wrestled against, to the public hearing the profile of the branch the sale. A. J. A. was nearly said, the three he has been in for.

gives safe benefits and the association goes soe. The bankruptcy is sufficiently influential to spread any propaganda of any sort. Government to the U. N. I. A. and after the office of the secretary General has been advised of the change.
I fail to see why correspondence must be continually sent to him. Such things only tend to impair the progress of any division, and we here openly protest against it. In Ciego de Avila we have got a good many Mgrores who sit on the fence and give their opinions when the other fellow guts down to business. We have got here men who will join anything or do anything to the progress of the race. And we sincerely hope that the officers of the U. N. I. A. will not lose their heads to grant anything like charms or chapter to any one in Ciego de Avila.
We have here a charter, No. 18, and even when seven or ten of us will hold on to it, we are determined to keep it. This gentleman, Mr. Caghorm, has informed the public of Ciego de Avila that the branch is non-financial. I would also like the Secretary General to inform me, if it is reasonable that we pay the debts of this branch before it was renamed. I am sure we are comfortable for it, Mr. H. II. Caghorm is a paid secretary by the branch, and so far as I can remember the members bluntly refused to pay him two months' pay, as they claimed he did nothing to merit payment for two months.
Grace March I am sure that we have paid up to May, and are indebted for four months, which I am sure will be paid before the end of October. But the question of this old debt that was not paid through the negligence of the former secretary, we need a decision from the parent body. Inform us, we are a bit tied up through the financial standing of the present day. But we openly defy Mr. H. B. Cleghorn to challenge the honesty of any officer of this branch. His old bodies are here and the old cards from various members are here. Whatever may be his aim we are desirous of finding out, for we are sure he is an enemy to the association. Let his followers in Ciego de Avila say and think as they may, we are determined to keep Branch No. 73 alive. Whoever doubts this they can stand aside and look on.
He claims that the two letters he got from the President General and Secretary General advise him to find out what is the matter.
The answer is the evil he has worked among the members of the branch has divided it, and now they are ashamed to return. We are all living in Ciego de Avil, and if the gentleman dare deny any of the above statements let him answer in the Negro World to prove his innocence. We are not vowed with him, but it is our aim that he understands he is a Negro and the N. U. I. A. and A. G. L. must be respected by all Negros, and further that he remembers the U. N. I. A. is the greatest of all lodges, as it tends to unite together the entire universe wherever Negroes are to be found.
Thanking you, sir, for space.
Your name
JOEN BARNARD.
Executive Secretary.

N. U. I. A. INTERESTS LOOMING
Sufferton, Oct. 24, 1831.
We are indeed glad to announce to the World that the interest in the Garvey movement hereabouts is increasing and the people are opening their droopy eyes and also their thinking abilities. Everything and everybody are becoming surcharged with the spirit of industrialism and the establishment of enterprises. The local U. N. I. A. is now rendering Sunday afternoon programs of Masonic Hall, where the public is invited to come out and learn of the principles of the organization as well as other important data promulgated by the various speakers. We most earnestly urge the people to read The Negro World and quit, disgussing the U. N. I. A. or anything else until they have learned something of the movement. The smallest thing to announce is the fact that Negroes seem so stupid and seem to hate to read newspapers and magazines and become informed.
On Sunday, October 12, a spindled U. N. L. A. program was rendered at the Masconi Hall. Those participating were: H. R. Alexander, president; T. L. Edwarda, chaplain; Clyde Renicka, address; Imman E. Foster, address; Miss Edith Bradley, recital; E. L. Rogers, address; A special liturgy and musical program, with able speakers will be arranged November 12. A chorus is being organized under A. Meek and a U. N. L. A. orchestra under C. Chapman.
MR. JOHN BARNARD IS
THE NEW SECRETARY
Mr. John Barnard is the new secretary of the Utego-de Ayla, Cuba. Division of the U. N. L. A.
Our Liberty Hall of Johannes once more swung open to welcome the heartened and new Negroes of the division to a mack meeting held on Sunday, October 16. The meeting was properly attended. We had a fine gathering, better than we have had for months on account of rain. The program was as follows:
1. Opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains"; 2. constitutional prayer, by the chaplain, Thomas E. Corbett, followed by his address, in which he referred to Koege leading the children of Israel and also to the future success of the U. N. L. A. all of which we were glad to bear. 2. Hymn. No. 84, from the Negro Ritual. 4. Address by our new elected president, the Hon. Sir Luther Haldane, R. O. A. R.
Our president arose from his seat, and in good humor called the attention of the people to the future success that is in store for the new Negroes if they will but unite. He read a very encouraging letter from Jatmonica, Cuba. Lither on September 18, had gone there to attend his niece's wedding, and being a man converted to a noble cause found it necessary to start a branch there, for which the Negro people were very desirous. From correspondence from the newly organized branch we can see it is going splendidly. He is expected to return there to make a report of the same to the parent body.
was well 'rendered. Her voice rang out like chiming balla. Aplause. 6. Address by the newly elected Lady President, Mrs. Randolf Moore. She spoke as follows: "To you, fellow men of our race, it is not necessary to make a long address, as I feel certain that you are in accord with my sentiments and will agree with me." She encouraged us to buy shares in the Black Star Line Steamship Company, the Labarian Construction Loan, the Negro Factoriel Corporation, and said that by doing so we shall redeem our fatherhood Africa. And through that we shall have every ingredient that makes for national success and prosperity. She continued by saying that we were led to believe that Africa has but one gold mina, so that we may close our eyes to the other vast natural riches which give guarantees of lasting prosperity which will come through the influence of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Our own energy is now dispelling this ignorance. She appealed to us with the utmost condidence of Africa's great future to help our leader financially and educationally to lead us to Africa to reap what we have sown.
7. Solo by Mr. Z. Island, very well rendered and received with much apliance.
8. Address by R. A. Colleman. He showed that he is devoting his time for the future betterment of our race.
9. A吟 from the Ritual No. 98.
10. Address by L. A. Allen. This speaker is always hitting us with racial facts.
Collection.
11. The President called attention to the long-range gun of Hon. Vip-Freeman Sir Frank Knuth, he being a member of commanding tons of voice, who was killed during the attack on Hindenburg line to encounter. His speech was touching and remarkable as well and it was encouraging to hear him declare he was ready to sacrifice his life for freedom. Tears flowed down his checks while pronouncing this last sentiment.
12. Address by visitor, Dr. A. H. Clementon, a member from Panama.
13. The Executive Secretary read to the audience from the parvint body.
14. The Executive Secretary read with the Chaplains' benediction.
At 4:58 p. m. all had left the hall rejoicing.

DIVISION 194, NEWS
The division held its first annual anniversary at 6 a. m. on Monday. October 10, as follows:
Thanksgiving service during the day, the doors of Liberty Hall being thrown open to all members of the race. It was a banner day, the hall being crowded, as the weather was fine.
At the night meeting a joint concert was held. The program was highly appreciated and was graced with the presence of some of Santagno's elite, including Dr. Portuondo, one of the city's ablest lawyers. His speech was inspiring. He spoke in highest terms of Garveyism and what it stands for, and he exhorted his hearers to fight on for the great cause, as it is sure to win if we stick together with one heart and one mind and give the cause our loyal support. He manifested his love for the race and expressed his desire to uplift it, and his words gave strength to every one to persevere in the struggles of the Negro's cause. He was greatly appauded.

The regular meeting of the Philadelphia Division under the able leadership of Dr. L. A. Francis presidend was convened Sunday afternoon, October 28.
The singing of "From Greenlands,
Irvy Mountain" followed by prayers
marked the opening ceremony.
The vice-president, Mr. J. Underwood occupied the chair, his timely remarks breathing grititude and radical inspiration, were well received, and I deduce credibly on the strength of his moral convictions.
Mr. B. Pinita, a distinguished African gentleman, delivered a very interesting address, taking as his subject the word, "impossibility" he proved to the audience that there is no such word as "impossibility" to the man dace who has the strength, of will enough to say, "I will overcome."
Mr. Benjamin Smith, in his imitative style, waxed warm in his cloakqueen denouncing the knickers or the pants. The Hon. Commissioner for the State of Pennsylvania, Mr. W. O. Simmons, was then introduced and with sophistication, warmed his way into the hearts of the people of Philadelphia. His address being continued to the international problem of the Race and

its solution as outlined in the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. His mastery of the subject led to his leadership the wide knowledge of international politics, and we are very glad to have in our schools such an able statesman.
Mine E. J. Johnson, graduate nurse of the Douglas Hospital, and assistant instructor of the Black Cross Nurses gave a few words of encouragement to her chapters, showing them the necessity for every nurse to imbibe the fundamental principles of nursing, and to visit the clinic where practical demonstrations are given. For the information of our readers, I will inform state that the Philadelphia Division has a medical department and clinic, which is an asset to the association, and the first of its kind to be organized in connection with the organization.
A big drive at now being staged by the Philadelphia Division and it behooves every loyal Negro to the cause to prepare themselves to make it a banner time.

It is possible that Mr. Dose Mohammed who is in America on a business mission, and Prof. F. E. H. Returney, who has only recently returned from America, will also speak before the Academy.
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1021
idea, lo hacen sin prestar atención alguna a estos datos históricos. Hemos leído en periódicos y magazines de nuestra raza, críticas acerca de los millones que llean nuestras filas en favor del movimiento de nuestra organización, como analfabetos e ignorantes. Estamos satisfechos de estar con las masas; estamos satisfechos de ser tan ignorante como las masas; pero las masas siempre han podido ellas mismas salvarse, mientras que las "clases" han sido siempre destruidas por medio de su orgullo. Con sentido común y experiencia, las masas se han guiado ellas mismas; pero con la tal llamada educación superior, nuestros doctores y profesores, han tenido que depender del buen deseo, caridad o soporte de las masas.
las con exactitud; ideas llegan a ciertas tiendas, los bombillas podrían correr las que las y deben aplicarlas en el desenvolviendo la vida.
Toda idea que titular, toda idea que cambios con el objeto que la humanidad nunca es el podrá momentánea. El cído y desenvolviendo la vida.
Tenemos el presentimiento de que la predisposición que existe en América, Gran Bretena, Francia, Alemania, y otras naciones en contra de nuestra raza, ha de desaparecer; pero no hasta que nos constituyamos en un poder, pudiendo así demandar el respeto del mundo entero. No hay fuerza como la destructiva, porque habiendo el hombre perdido sus virtudes, solamente respeta aquella fuerza que el mismo no puede contrarrestar. La única fuerza que el hombre reconoce y respeta es la fuerza de destrucción; mas no queremos decir que seamos destructores, pero es un arma por medio de la cual podemos protejernos. Quizás no tengamos la necesidad de usarla, pero debemos estar siempre preparados para hacer buen uso de ella.
Después de que el hombre pierde sus virtudes, se rebela. El rebelde quitá la propiedad y finalmente la vida al otro; y por su propia protección personal, el rebelde searma en contra del otro. No porque tenga que guerrear, sino por el hecho de estar preparado. Asi vemos hoy una Europa preparada; un Asia preparada. Los dos continentes y razas opuestas quizas no vayan a un extremo, sin embargo estan alertas. Estando Europa y Asia preparadas, Africa también debiera estarlo; no con el objeto de hacer uso del poder de nuestras fuerzas, sino con el objeto de poder imoner respeto. Algunos creen que el programa de nuestra asociación es muy elevado, muy elaborable. Y el programa de otras naciones y otras razas. No son estos también elevados y elaborables? Y el programa de Irlanda, de Egipto, de India? Que persiguen estos? Libertad, completa independencia para los pueblos que constituyen esos pafses. También nuestro programa sigue la misma senda, para beneficio de los cuatro clientes millones de Negros del mundo
Las masas de nuestro pueblo han de gobernar. Las masas no son ya arnalfabetas ni ignorantes; las masas estan despiertas. Hemos de reconcentrar nuestra propia dirección en la base de un propósito honesto y una integridad verdadera, de modo que todos aquellos que se han denominado directores, filósofos y guiñas, noten que el Negro del presente no esta dispuesto a que se le engaje por más tiempo. Realizamos que nuestros peores enemigos no están solamente en otras razas, sino que también en nuestras propias filas. Realizamos que la piedra de destrucción es arrdjada en medio del camino del progreso, no solo por los de afuera, sino que también por los que están dentro de nuestras filas, quienes debieran ser los primeros en engrasar las ruedas del carro del progreso, en vez de interceptar su camino. Por su propio beneficio, estos elementos se han colocado siempre en el camino de nuestro adelanto, y no estamos dispuestos a tolerarlo por mas tiempo; algo debe hacerse, y hemos de hacerlo. Tal es nuestra determinación.
El Presidente Harding Manifiesta En Su Discurso De Ayer La Necesidad De La Cooperacion E Intervencion De Los Negros En La Solución De Los Asuntos Nacionales—"Ambas Razas Deben Luchar Unidas Em Contra Del Prejuicio Establecido"
Nuectra Raza Ha Atrovezado Los Deserteros Y Pruderas De
Los Prejuicios Humanos—El Toque De Llimada Para
Engrosar Las Filas En Favor De Nuectra Libertad—
La Humanidad Se Ha Dividido—Tenemos Que
Luchnr Por Independencia
Hablendo atravezado por centenares de años los desiertos y praderas de los prejuicios humanos, hemos llegado al cruz del destino de nuestra raza. Todas y cada una de las razas existententes caminan en su propia dirección. La gran familia humana se ha divido y cada unidad siente en el singular objeto al cual recurre, y oimos el grato de."Japón para los japoseses," "China para los chinos," "Europa para los europeos," y ahora los 400,000,000 de Negros del mundo gritan en tonos de ostención "Africa narra los africanos."
Ha humanidad no solamente se ha dividido, sino que también ha desarrollado el celo mutuo en mayor cantidad. Ningún grupo cree las intenciones que profesan los otros, y el propósito de desconfianza nos ha rodeado de tal manera, que parece que la verdad, el amor, la honestidad y la caridad han alzado su vuelo hacia otros mundos superiores. Por la ausencia de estas virtudes, el hombre no-se dispone a encomendar su destino al hermano, sino que custodia y desarrolla el propio. En estos instantes es los presentes, por consigulente, apesar de las amenazas de ingresión y ferviente paraparacimiento por parte de otros, la oportunidad de unirnos en un solo cuerpo, y edificar nuestra independencia, poder por medio del cual podemos vivir en seguridad.
El programa de "Africa para los africanos" delineado por la Asociación Universal para el adelanto de la Raza Negra, parece maliciosa y débilmente mal interpretado por clerta clase de escritores y oradores de nuestra raza en los Eslidos Unidos de America. Hemos sido acusados de pernudir a los Negros del emisferio occidental para que abandonen la idea de tomar participación en asuntos locales, tales como política, negocios y religión, y que presten toda su atención y abilidad a los asuntos del Africa, porque todos los Negros son requeridos por nosotros para que regresen a ella. Esta es una idea irronea, y nadie mejor que aquellos que escriben y hablan en contra del programa de nuestra asociación lo saben.
No es el propósito de nuestra organización el de enviar y reunir a todas los mienbros de nuestra raza en Africa, sino el de aconsejarles que ayuden en la construcción de irrAfrica como una gran nación para nuestra raza; y aquellos que deseen ir a Africa y vivir alli bajo su propia democracia, su propia bandera, lo haran así por su propia conveniencia. Todo estudiante inteligente en clencia adquirita immediatamente que el futuro do nuestra raza fuera del Africa estará siempre amenazado por ruina y disastré, a exención de aquellos que organizados y con la ayuda moral, política e industrial, construyuan un gobernio suficientemente fuerte para nuestra protección y respeto conde quilern que se renegerido. Tal ejemplo lo tenemos en el gran desarrollo del Japón, en donde hace algunos años el japón no eru reconocido por su estado nacional pues desarrollado, pero el que ha sido hoy-reconocido un gran poder por la prosperidad de su nación.
Hay elementos en nuestra raza que por su propia convención, persiguen en esta generación el engañar la raza hacia donde creer, que está asegurada, para poder explotarla, sin considerar lo que el futuro nos tenga mucho. Hatas que se titulan ellos mismos directores no ton sino ruina para la raza entera en esta porción del universo. Queda a cargo de las masas el deshacerse deatus hombres y mujeres insensatos, los cuales tratan de finger creer que todo está bien y que todo estará bien, mundo en lo más profundo de su corazon saben que el futuro de nuestra raza no será otro sino caos, toda vez que nos preparamos para afrotrarlo.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Octubre 26.—El Presidente de los Estados Unidos de América, Hon. Warren G. Harding, en su discurso con motivo de la celebración del quinquecesimo aniversario de la fundación de esta ciudad, uno de los centros del prejudicio de razas en este país, trajo principalmente la cuestión racial en los siguientes terminos:
La preparación de nuestra, raza no se limita solamente a hacer uso del sufragio, conseguir una posición o emprender un-negocio propio, tal preparación es necesaria, pero sin la protección política, aquella protección que pueda verse y sentirse, la protección que las grandes naciones dan an un bulidos y ciudadanos en todas partes; entonces nuestra raza será una multidad por el prejuicio que aún existe, apesar del uso del sufragio. Fácil les será el perpetuar violencia por la cual nuestra raza será la victima, y no la godemos contrarrestar ni con nuestra riqueza industrial ni el sufragio. Podrian discutirnos que con el uso de la fuerza industrial y del sufragio se puede obligar al gobierno el que se nos reconozca. Debemos tener entendido que el gobierno es el pueblo; que la mayoría del pueblo dicta la política del gobierno; y el la mayoría del entonces el gobierno es incompetente para protejer aquella pueblo está en contra de una medida o de una raza, medida de aquella raza.
"Ha pasado la época, en que el problema racial se confinaba al Sur de los Estados Unidos o a toda esta nación. Ha pasado a ser un problema mundial, para tratarlo hay que recuerder antes estos principios fundamentales.
Que se conceda a los negros las mismas facultades en cuestiones políticas, económicas y educativas.
Que haya absoluta divergencia racial y social, respetando a cada raza con sus tradicionales, ideales, etc.
No ganariamos nada con disimular la verdad de los hechos; además este no es el sistema americano do tratar las cosas.
Hombres de ambas razas, pueden, marchar de acuerdo, sin compromiso alguno contra los prejuicios sociales de igualdad. Seria mejor suprimir la palabra "igualdad" de esas consideraciones para que fuese comprendido por ambas partes que no se traita de una cuestion de igualdad social sito de reconocimiento de una diferencia fundamental, eterna y perfectamente definida. Follita y economicamente, no ha de haber diferencias permanentes que pongan trabas a las oportunidades del individuo suponenido que por ambas partes se reconoce la abstraita divergencia social y racial. No diría deja votar a los negros capacitados para ello y prohibid que votara los blancos, que no estan dehdamente preparados.
bitantes de esta nación que forman un conjunto tan importante como el total de habitantes de algunos de los más importantes pueblos de Europa."
El Presidente indicó que los Estados del Sur han de hacer algo por educar a los negros y no dejar a ese importante nucleo que se convierta "en un vasto campo de ignorancia que pierda sus frutos por el poder absorbente de otras secclones", lo que hay que evitar laborando por la prosperidad industrial del Sur.
Al hablar de la enseñanza el Presidente dijo que no tenía simpatía alguna por el sistema que llenaria el país de míos y abogados privándolo de operarios.
Dedicó halagadoras frases al aumento de riqueza manifestado en el Sur.
Millares de personas, acidieron a escuchar las palabras del Presidente Harding. El número público en pier- formando semicirculo velase separado por una bien definida "linga de color" en la que figuraban distinntamente blancos y negros. Al hablar de la igualdad de derechos políticos y económicos para los negros hizo un ligero aparte digiendo: "Lo que estoy diclando aqui en estos momentos se repite en toda America, en el Sur y en el Norte, ante, negros y blancos."
las con exacilitud; sino cuando estas ideas llegan a cierto grado de extensión, losombres suelen acceptarias porlar confianza que depositaran los que la aceptaron antes, y deben aplicarlas todo lo posible en el desenvolimiento yo progreso en la vida.
Toda idea que trate de evolucionar, toda idea, que de a introducir cambios con el objeto de procurar que la humanidad marche adelante, nunca es nl podra ser'imposible ni momenta. El progreso, evolucion y desenvolimiento a que nos referimos es al la raza negra. La noble raza etiópica, que por cuatrocientos años ha estado acatando con resignación las inalfibilidades de las otras razas, las cuales han empafalado de virus corrosivo, las puras concepciones de los que han enanado las palabras de "Libertad y Derecho propio de lo suyo en lo suyo."
Hemos llegado a los momentos supremos; nosotros hombres y mujeres de la vaza negra, desendientes de ese fructifero y tan codiciado continente como lo es el Africa, no deberíamos de tener duda ni incertidumbre. Si hemos de hablar, hacerlo con firmea de carácter conciensudo, y si hemos de escribir, hacerlo con la carácterística propia de todos aquellos que han abandonado los habitos de esclavitud moral y material, los cuales son los más grandes impedimentos para el desenvimiento de una raza.
Para que este desenvvolvimiento resurja en la raza, es preciso decisión; es preciso ser negro y ser negro decidido. Decision significa valor, animo, desprecio de obstacul, los convenimiento de lo que se quiere llevar a cabo, a energia acumulada y exteriorizada por un imperio acto fusológico psiquico intellectual. Lo contrario es cobardia, esclavitud e ignorancia.
Me interrogareis, *porque senda debemos transitar para llegar a negr Negros decididos?* Ah. mis querdos hermanos. (digo así porque todos los que luchamos por el enalecimiento de la raza, somos hermanos) las puertas existen abiertas por todas partes; no habes odo hablar de la Asociación Universal para el adelanto de la Raza Negra, y de la Liga de Comunidades Africanas? Ella es la puerta; ella os llama a la casa paso; ella tiene por fin la unificación de la raza negra, conservando los derechos de la raza, y resetando fos derechos de todo genere humano.
En estos momentos supremos en que todo ser viviente reclamation; en que todo ser viviente la reacionado y la podido darse cuenta exacta de lo que le pertenece, reclamation decididamente al mlagreable usurpador. La Asociación Universal para el adelanto de la Raza Negra y la Liga de Comunidades Africanas es la encargada de reclamar; es nuestra arma valiente; espera nuestra ayuda; espera que seais Negros decididos.
Todo negro y seaside hombre mujer o niño es contado como miembro de la Asociación. Pero sereis miembros activos o miembros decididos los que contribuya decidamente a la noble y justa causa del desenvolvimiento y progreso del Negro, es decir, de nosotros mismos, con la simple cuota de treinta y cinco centavos, para ser un membro efectivo de la "Asociación Universal para el adelantado de la Raza Negra, y la Liga de Comunidades Africanas."

De La Piel
Editor del Negro World
Nosotros los de la Legion Universal Africana, (Rango Uniformado de la U. N. I. A.) como cualquier rango uniformado de otras sociedades, descamos tener y producir lo mejor.
Nosotros como raza creíamos que la cultura y la intelectualidad existía solamente en las otras razas, según sus enseñanzas. Creíamos que la superioridad era estimada por el color de la piel y calidad del cabello, según sus enseñanzas. También creíamos que era imposible para que el Negro futura otra cosa sino esclavo y peón. Aun creíamos que era imposible para que nuestra raza llegara a ser un poder y una nación; pero bendido se el Alfisimo, creador de la humanidad, que por medio de Su Bonda para con nosotros, pedentía mediante la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, revelar que nuestra raza en aníyela a cualquier otra raza, física, moral, intellectual y espiritualmente. Todos estos son hechos que no pueden negarse. Demuestren que una tarjeta inmoral en la la fotografía de una mujer de nuestra raza está impresa. Este es un dato que más convene el que la inmoralidad existe, extensivamente entre la otra raza del mundo. Demuestren que la bonda es el etótimo, moderno que has podido revivir, la raza y la mecánica del finido, sin contindo con una raza con el mundo.
