The Negro World

Negro World ONE GOD, ONE AIM, ONE DESTINY THE WHITE MAN'S CIVILIZATION A SPLENDID EXAMPLE TO NEGROES FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: As one journeys through the great United States of America he is bound to come in contact with the white man's progress in industry, science and education. On every side you see evidences of his great work. He has built a civilization upon the surface of a wild and neglected country. He has planted city life where only a desert existence was once manifest. The Early Colonists Whether you live in New York or in Los Angeles you are sure to come in contact with the civilization that the white man has wrought by his labor, sacrifice and endurance. I am left to think whether the Negro of this twentieth century is able to rise to the heights of the white man. When we contemplate America a few hundred years ago, we see a vast wilderness, a forest, a prairie country, unkept, undeveloped, rude in every element of Nature's make-up. Then suddenly we see a ship crossing the tempestuous Atlantic. It makes port, it anchors off the New England coast, the passengers disembark, they settle at Plymouth. From there I see the beginning of a mighty colonization. I see these colonists land, I see them suffer, I see them die. Their numbers diminish, and yet they are not discouraged. On and on they go, until gradually they become acclimatized. Steadily they made their encroachments upon the rights of an aboriginal race; yes, I see them strengthened in their courage and determination to colonize a new country, to develop a new land. Years passed, decades came and went, and still on and on they go. One hundred years have rolled by, two hundred years have rolled by, three hundred years have gone, and today we see a great civilization standing to the credit of an ancestry most grand, most noble. Can I lay claim to that ancestry? Unfortunately, no! The men and the women who laid the foundation of American nationality and American progress and American civilization were not my forebears. They were the ancestors of another race; yes, the white race. Do you wonder, therefore, that the white man boasts that America is a white man's country? Do you wonder that he takes pride in the development of his own nation? Do you wonder that he Jim-crows, segregates, murders, burns and lynches the black man when the black man shows a disposition to rival him in industry, in politics, in social life in the country that he, the white man, has suffered for, has died for, has built for his own convenience? You may argue that my ancestors worked as slaves to build up alongside of the white man the great American nation. But, ah, when the circumstances under which we were brought here as slaves are keen into consideration we will immediately realize the fact that the white man owes no obligation to the Negro. Not because I employ the bricklayer or the carpenter to build my house should I in turn give over my apartments to him as his property. If he was paid for his work for the building is erected, he goes; I take possession. I will say that the slave was not paid for his work. The man believes that the slave has been well paid for its soever service he gave, even though not of his free for the building up of the great United States of America in that the white man claims that he has given the two civilization and Christianity; the white man claims he rescued the Negro from the jungles of Africa, otherwise would still have been a barbarian, a savage, a cannon. The white man claims that he has within the twentieth century given the Negro every opportunity to do for as he, the white man, has done; therefore, he argues, he more reward do you want for the labor that you need for 250 years as a slave?" If we are to admit the fact, then we must come to the conclusion that the town's heart cannot be touched even with the most devout prayer, in asking him to share America with the black man. He is not going to black man to tell him how to run the city, to run the nation. Not after he has suffered so A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1922 MAN'S CIVIL D EXAMPLE T WHITE MAN HAS PLANTED CITY LIFE WHERE ONLY DESERT EXISTED WHITE MAN WILL NOT YIELD UP AMERICA OR EUROPE TO NEGROES NEGROES MUST CREATE UNITED STATES OF AFRICA APPEAL FOR SUPPORT FOR THIRD INTERNATIONAL RACE CONVENTION much for the building of this nation, for the founding of this great republic. The white man who has built New York, who has built Boston, who has built Philadelphia, who has built Chicago, who has built Milwaukee, who has built Kansas City, who has built Washington, who has built Portland, who has built Los Angeles and San Francisco, who has built New Orleans and Atlanta, is not going to yield up to the black man that which he has worked for, suffered for, and died for. 'A Temporal Age Tell me that a better time will come when there will be an amicable settlement between black and white as far as the life politic, economic and social goes, and I laugh at you in derision, because no sensible student of political economy, sociology or economics could come to any such conclusion. As one studies the country and the people the more, one is bound to realize that this great white man is going to make a death struggle to maintain the civilization that he has founded for his own convenience. If any Negro in America or anywhere thinks that the white man is going to lay down the railroad tracks, put on his Pullman and other cars for the purpose of conveying himself from one part of the country to the other, to his own comfort and convenience; that he is going to establish his own government, and divide them up into various departments to suit his own convenience and comfort; that he is going to build his own homes, public halls, hotels, theatres and playhouses and adorn them to his own comfort and convenience and allow the Negro to monopolize them, he makes a big mistake. The white man is not thinking about the Negro or any other race but himself, and no sensible human being will blame him in an age so material, in an age so human as this twentieth century. We are not living in a spiritual age; we are living in a temporal, material age, and it is unreasonable for any set of human beings to expect another set to give up to them what they themselves would not give up. It is well we return to reason and thereby understand and know ourselves as a people and as a race. If the Negro wants the comforts of modern civilization, if he wants the happiness of city life, if he wants the privilege of governmental control, then he must create these things for himself. If he wants to ride in Pullman cars from New Orleans to New York, from New York to San Francisco; if he wants to occupy the orchestra seat in the Metropolitan Opera House; if he wants to sit in the front seats of a trolley car; if he wants the first job on the industrial list; if he wants the opportunity to represent his district in the House of Congress or in the Senate; if he wants to sit in the White House as President of the nation; if he wants to sit in the Department of Justice as Attorney General, he will not expect these things in the United States of America. He shall go out and create for himself the United States of Africa. America is not going to yield these things to the Negro! Great Britain is not going to yield these things to the Negro; neither in France, Italy or Germany, so there is no use trying, there is no ZATION A TO NEGROES aggravating this great white man, because he is not going to do it, simply because it is unreasonable—it is not human. The Japanese Empire Negroes, let us take inspiration from the white man's achievement in America and in Europe. If we do not desire to pattern the white man's civilization of Europe and America, then to have a fair and splendid example of what man can do, take the achievement of the great yellow man in Japan. In the space of seventy years a few million Japanese have built up a mighty empire that occupies today not a second place, but is numbered among the first rate powers of the world. England in the space of a few centuries has built up a vast empire where she was but an island kingdom, and if forty-five million Anglo-Saxons could have done that to their own honor and glory, four hundred million Negroes, united under the leadership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, can do it for themselves in another hundred years. An Appeal to Africa's Sons I am appealing to the manhood of the race everywhere in America, the West Indies, South and Central America and Africa to let us get together now and put over this great program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Let us take inspiration from our own experiences and settlements. You who are in the West Indies, will be drawn in the inspiration of the life that surrounds you. You in North America, South and Central America can do the same. Let us unitedly then apply our knowledge of western civilization to the development of Africa. Africa needs her mechanics, her scientists, her industrial captains, her teachers, her ministers, her business men, her statesmen. Scattered as we have been for the last three hundred years, and educated as we have been in the different schools of adversity, can we not rise with this higher education to save ourselves and our country? Surely we can, and that is why I am this week appealing to every Negro to support the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. You can support it morally and financially. Those of you who have the education, it is for you to throw yourselves in body and soul and contribute the little you can mentally to the putting over of the program. Those of you who have no ability educationally, you can help with your money; yes, you can help by donating $1, $2, $5, $10, $50, $100 to help us in the great work. Do so now by subscribing to the African Redemption Fund by writing to the Secretary-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association, 56 West 135th Street, New York City, N. Y., U. S. A., or help us in subscribing to the Convention Fund of 1922. A large sum of money is needed to successfully put over the program of the forthcoming convention. You can help with your $2, $5, $10, $50, $100 by writing to the Registrar, Universal Negro Improvement Association, 56 West 135th Street, New York City, N. Y., U. S. A. With very best wishes for your success, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant, MARCUS GARVEY, President-General UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION Los Angeles, Cal., June 5, 1922. P.

MALONEY "The Logic of This Policy," He Says, "Is as Inexorable as Fate—It Has Historical Precedent and Biological Sanction in Works in Brazil, Central and South America" The sage of Tuskegee, in a speech which made his name immortal in a day, enunciated a policy which was immediately accepted as the course which the race-problem should traverse in its march toward solution. This policy was illustrated by the use of a striking figure—a figure which sticks to the memory like a picture stamped on the mind as the result of some vital crisis in life. Holding up his hand by way of reinforcing word with gesture he declared to his vast Atlanta Exposition audience "In all things purely social as separate as the fingers in all things making for mutual progress, one as the hand." He had conceived a philosophy of race adjustment, and his conception as he made it incarnate, represented the feelings, hitherto inarticulate, of the majority of white folk, North as well as South. The North was dependent upon the South as the source of supply for the grist to keep their mills running, and the South needed the Negro to supply this grist. So the South hailed the utterance of the so called spokesman of the Negro race with vociferous applause, and the sauve North acquiesced. Thus Washington's "let down your bucket where you are" as the condition-procedent to the effectual carrying out of the policy was entirely satisfactory. Forceforthewashington was pampered and potted and provided with every means, personal and official, for the working out of his program. ```markdown ``` No one at that time seemed to have had the insight to see that that policy was built upon a philosophy of non-venus. The old compartment theory of psychology was already beginning to be super-annuated, but the dead form of an hypothesis lingers long after life has departed to guide the unthinking masses. Laboratories, once busy dissecting man's mind, isolating one quality from the other and imprisoning each in hermetically sealed chambers, were daily being closed down or recognized. But the influence exerted by this antiquated psychology was still potent in other fields. And the policy enunciated by Booker Washington and seized with avidity by the entire nation was the direct sociological counterpart of this moribund psychology Mr. Washington drew an arbitrary line of differentiation between man's organic faculties, forgetting that such sundering could only be done at the expense of the life of the organism. If Mr. Washington were as good a biologist as he was an orator he would have known that what holds true with regard to the affairs of the individual holds true in a larger sense with regard to the affairs of the group—that there is a general analogy between the philogenetic and the ontogenetic processes of life. Place a glass of liquid on a table and try to move it with one finger or each finger taken separately and see what success you would have. The only thing the fingers, working separately, could do would be to push over the glass and spill its contents. The same holds true if in place of the glass there was a coin on the table; one finger could push the coin off the table, it could not transfer it from the table to your pocket. The value of the fingers as individual units is nil when regarded as instruments making for constructive ends. They can but destroy But working in concert, however, they can fell a forest, write a Bible and in motion the wheels of industry. But when they work in concert they do so by virtue of the unitary force transmitted to them from the hand—the common source of agnity. The logic of Booker Washington's philosophy, based upon ignorance of biological laws and articulating the sociological counterpart of an affete payology, has led to what we are experiencing today. "In all things purely social as separate as the fingers" has given tacit sanction and has unwittingly sanctified Jim-crowism, segregation, a dual judiciary system and all the satanic satellites of race prejudice in america. It has winked at unfairness in economics as much as it has fertilized the growth of social castes. Every Negro knows well the reduced purchasing power of the dollar in his hand against the same dollar in the hand of a white man. Every Negro who has traveled has had the experience of discomfort in spite of the fact that he has had money in his pocket with which to purchase his comfort. It has widened the chasm between employer and employee, between dispenser and consumer, and has left the Negro minus a "bucket" with which to let down into the well of opportunity that he sees before him trying there only to taint him with his fertilizing wilhary of attractiveness. Assuming that protocols are to be let down, where we are, the only logical alternative to racial, economic and social civilism is to be found in miscategorical. The logic of this policy, accepting the given situation, as in apparentable as false. It has historical precedent and biological function in its myth. It has worked in the old world from these immensely. It works in modern and parts of North and Central America. It is working gradually in the United States under newer today. "There are issues with that that presentation calls for premature and moral sacrifices—more MR. BRIDGES ON NEGRO FINANCE The Negro World this week begins a series of articles, the first of which is entitled "The Inside Working of Corporations," by Mr. William Bridges, the vitriolic editor of "The Challenge," and a well-known student of economics and high finance. THE INSIDE WORKING OF CORPORATIONS BY WILLIAM BRIDGES Editor "The Challenge" In speaking of corporations headed by Negroes and in which Negroes are the sole investors, they are usually referred to as Negro Corporations Financially speaking this is incorrect There is only one kind of corporation which is a form of business that has replaced the old type partnership and these, whether headed by colored men or white, retain the same identity in a legal and financial sense. Another serious mistake made by various colored persons in criticizing corporations under the control of colored men is in saying that in the absence of early dividends and in case of failures, dishonesty is the cause. This is no more true of corporations managed by colored men than it is of those managed by white men and the fact that those managed by colored men are slow in declaring dividends is due entirely to the fact that they usually begin business with a limited amount of capital, which is in continual fluctuation. I a surplus is created. It cannot wisely be used in paying dividends if the business is ever to expand, for the simple reason that our corporations, unlike those controlled by white people, have no means of raising quick additional capital for expansion or for any other purpose. This capital must come from the profits, if there are any if there are no profits it is a certainty that the company will not succeed New York is full of such example. It is, therefore, to enlighten the Negro public on the various phases of investments that I have consented to write a series of articles in the Negro World Agitation and social organisations are splendid. The only hope, however, of establishing the Negro as a recognised unit among other races is in thorough instruction on the theoretical and practical phases of finance. It is this knowledge that has placed the Jew in the very vanguard of human affairs In these articles it is not my purpose to select sound investments or to criticise any corporation. My sole purpose is to so enlighten the thousands of colored people who have invested in our corporations so that they will thoroughly understand the peculiar operations that either make or break any company and in this way relieve the almost universal pain of apparent indignation that is at present so prevalent. This is by no means a personal consideration. it is a public duty. rifices which would not be compensated for by the converse eleemosynary good. That's the crucial question. The variety of answers to it determines the present alignment of racial leadership. In one camp there is a group which declares for the final merging of whites and blacks; in another there is a group which reprobates the idea. Both policies have their merits, both their disadvantages, both their difficulties. A comparison of their relative values will engage our attention for next week. Note—Our analysis of the political outlook of the Negro in the United States has been most strikingly corroborated by a letter which the editor of "The Monitor" of Omaha received from New York over the signature of the K. K. K. and published in that paper in the issue of May 28. The letter reads, in part: "Mr. Nigra Editor! Your ideas are all wrong here. What you advocate here must not and shall not be, as long as there are any white men in this Country. White Supremacy is our slogan and we are going to rule this Country without the aid or consent of any Nigra or bunch of Nigra, no matter how smart they may be. You may as well put away the fool notions expressed in this yawp. This is a white man's country and we are checking up on you while you are dreaming and having a good time. "You've lost out politically and you can't recover. We've put the thin edge of the wedge under Oregon, and Omana comes next. New York will follow, for we whites are determined to eliminate the Nigra from State and National politics. "... We are one family, North and South and, like you, Nigrae, we sympathise with each other when our lives and liberties are managed by an alien race. There can be no importment in Impurity here. We haven't the space." THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1922 Commissioner Copeland Confers with Social Workers on Negro Death Rate COL CHARLES YOUNG POST ORGANIZED HERE A group of young en-service men recently got together and formed The Colonel Charles Young Post, No. 222, of the American Legion. The post, according to a press notice issued from its headquarters, bases its activities on a platform of service to the Negro group. Its function is to cooperate with all organizations to this end. All en-soldiers who have been out of work for a period of at least 14 days and can trace disability to their army service, are entitled to make inquiry at legion headquarters, 2350 Seventh avenue, concerning State aid for veterans. Headquarters are open every afternoon between 3 and 5 o'clock. The officers of the past are Thomas H. Waiters, commander, William Service Bell, first vice commander; Nathaniel A. Burrell, Jr., and McDonald Spencer, second and third vice commanders; Emanuel A. Romeo, adjutant; Alonze F. Burham, finance officer; William H. Coper, second vice-officer, and Rev Marshall L.

The Hampton Institute students, in addition to their recent presentation of The Drum-Major, a romantic opera of the First Empire of France at the commencement season, have recently presented several stage productions which have won the thanks and praise of critics. The Shakespeare Dramatic Club assisted by a boys orchestra which was directed by R. Nathaniel Dett presented "Julius Caesar with appropriate costumes and stage settings" Edward L. Dahney, of Hampton, V. played the role of "Caesar" B. Miller Johnson, of Thornton, Ark. "Mark Antony", Olivia B. White, of Norfolk Va. "Calpurnia", Harry E. Cook of Beirut Va. Brutus Bertha Q Ages of York, B. C "Portia" and Stuart L Whiting of Norfolk Va. Octavius A number of the Hampton Institute girls, under the direction of Miss Wilhelmina B Patterson, teacher of vocal music in the academy, presented, in costume "Gitanos," a Spanish operetta, written by Samuel Coloridge-Taylor whose father was a native of Sierra Leone, at one of the school assemblies, held in Ondal Hall The Sophoclean Dramatic Club presented Stephen Phillips Ulysses, a dramatization of "The Odyssey with artistry and keen insight into dramatic values. R. Nathaniel Dett, in a review, expressed this appreciation. "It must be said that the Sophoclean players made the most of their chances. They throw themselves into the portrayal of the classic legend with such zeist and spirit that the effects which they obtained rivaled those of the professional stage. Artistic color schemes and well-designed costumes made each scene a delight to the eye. It was the excellent delivery of the lines, however, which made most of the success. It is noteworthy that costumes and scenery were made by the hands of committees which had been drawn from the membership of the Sophoclean Club." In the annual prize speaking contest at Hampton Institute the winners were First, John H Calhoun, Jr. Greville, B. C. Kipling's "The Explorer", second, John T Jones, Montgomery, Ala., Hugo's "Jean Vallon", and third, Annie B. Wilson, Eheart, Va., Van Dyke's "The Tolling of Felix." 135TH ST.

The office of the New York Urban League was filled on Thursday evening with social workers, physicians and others interested in public health, who listened to a discussion of health conditions in New York city, particularly in Harlem, by Dr. Royal S. Copeland, Commissioner of Health. Dr. Copeland called attention to the excessive death rate among colored babies, and emphasized the need of playgrounds, better housing conditions and observance of the laws of right living. He stated that he came to Harlem not so much to instruct, but to be instructed, as he is anxious to do everything in his power to improve health conditions in the Harlem district. Many suggestions were made by those attending the conference. Among those taking part in the discussion were Dr. Peter M. Murray, Charles H. Roberts, Charles Mayfield, Miss Clara Harris, M. A. M.

ANTI-LYNCHING PARADE BY WM. SAVVILLE BURKE In reviewing last Saturday's Anti-Lynching demonstration of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, there are two outstanding features which commend themselves most satisfactorily to the thoughtful observer. They are indeed the chief contributing factors to the marked success of the undertaking. In spite of the indications of rain and the subsequent downpours, hundreds of Negroes, men, women and children, bravely stood in their places of assignment fell into line and marched. Most of them were drenched before having proceeded a block. The consciousness of duty to the group, however seemed paramount to any physical discomfort, and the stretch of over four miles was covered with a determination that would have done credit to seasoned soldiers. The Negro seems to be gradually awakening to a realization that his greatest service to civilization is through loyalty to and belief in the means of his own group. This observation is cause number one for satisfaction in Saturday's demonstration. Cause number two was emphasized during a conversation held by a group of college fraternity men relative to the fundamental differences between the two most important Negro movements. The opinion affording food for greatest thought was expressed as being the fundamental difference between the American and the West Indian Negro. That there is a difference is purely a matter of mental concept. A difference that is characteristic of many Negro groups regardless of nationality. This will remain so until the press for the most part learns its functions on the interest of the group. The press is in a large measure re- sponition for the alignment of the Negro- ses into two distinct groups which while aiming to secure the position of the white group has rather weakened the battle front. For Saturday's demation, however, the spirit of self-identification to the common cause commendably prevailed. The U N I A and the A A C P marched side by side to save the American dem- ocracy from the tentacles with which the still rebellious South is drawing it into certain disruption. Are not these two outstanding features sufficiently contributing factors to be considered just cause for satis- faction with Saturday's undertaking?

William Randolph Hearst, in an interview given in London to the London Evening Standard, advocates a co-operative agreement between all white peoples. He also suggests, which, of course, strikes the English as most unreasonable, that any white race agreement should be headed and largely controlled by the United States inasmuch as this is the biggest and most powerful country in the world. Now, who is William Randolph Hearst, and what do you learn from the above statement made by Mr. Hearst? Mr. Hearst is one of the biggest publishers in the English-speaking world, owning and controlling a chain of newspapers in this country that find their way into the homes of more than 7,000,000 families. Mr Hearst might be called, and truthfully so, the mouthpiece of the United States, and his newspapers, through its editorial columns, create and mould the public opinion of the country more so than any other agency in existence. Mr Hearest advocates a co-operative agreement between all white peoples, ignoring and overlooking the 16,000,000 Negroes, who are his countrymen, so we have been told, to say nothing of the 400,000,000 Negroes throughout the world, who are striving and hoping for the beat there is in manhood and life, even as Mr Hearest and the rest of the white people whom he makes the appeal to, for a co-operative agreement, through the English and American newspapers. When we read such a statement as made by Mr Hearest, and the word White used in exclusion to Negro citizenry and coming from a man who stands high among his people and sways the thought and opinion of that people, one wonder what is the significance of that lily white propaganda to the millions of Negroes and peoples of Negro extraction who form no small part of this country and this world. The advocacy of illly white co-operation as put forth by Mr Heairst can only mean to the Negro one of two things, or both. And these two things are That the white world will never and does not intend to consider Negroes in the general scheme of things, or they feel that the Negro should paddle his own canoe and look out for himself, and therefore they ignore him in any program that they bring forward. And this attitude of the white world strikes at the very hearts of those who advocate the amalgamation theory. They will be kept busy for a long time, trying to explain away and color such outbreaks as we have read above from Mr Heairst and other leading and influential thinkers of the white world It only proves that we are a long way from the brotherhood of man and no doubt it will be many more centuries before it is realized and it will come in a different way and from a different source than most of us expect and, will surely not come from the man who now wields the power The W wisdom and Foresight of Jarvey Marcus Garvey the great leader of the Negro race, and the spokesman of millions of Negroes writes in the Negro World, issue of May 27, this thought of wisdom Read it then think of what you read from Mr Heart and what it means then tell it and explain it to your children Mr Garvey made this statement in the World to Negroes throughout the world. If we sit supinely by and allow the great white race to lift itself in numbers and in power it will mean that in another five centuries this full-grown race of white men will in turn exterminate the weaker race of black men for the purpose of finding enough room on this limited mundane sphere to accommodate that race, which will have numerically multiplied itself into many billions." The writer firmly believes that there never was a time in the history of the Negro race when a united front was more necessary and expedient than it is today. It is due time that Negroes through- WACO, Texas, June 2—One white man has been killed and three others wounded and five Negroes slain in race fights between Negroes and whites two and a half miles south of Kirwin, according to a telephone message sent late today to The News-Tribune from The Mexia Evening News. The white man killed was reported to be a relative of Miss Eula Awley, whose slaying recently was followed by the burning of three Negroes and the hanging of another at Kirwin. Mr. King, grandfather of Miss Awley, was reported among the wounded. Four automobile loads of county officers have gone from Mexia to assist officers of Freeport County. Officers male had feeling had existed in Kirwin between whites and Negroes since the burning of the three Negroes. out the entire world who desire to achieve and live should throw all their strength, morally, financially and intellectually, to the Universal Negro improvement Association and present a united front of economic independence and self-determination, expressed in nationalism, protected by their own government and its strength. in order that they may be able to stay the bloody march of oppression and call a halt to anything that even looks like an attempt to further exploit or exterminate the race. There are many more shining qualities in the mind of man, but none so useful as discretion. Let us all make good use of ours. An Outpost of Greenwich Village and a Vanguard of These Unique Haunts to Invade Harlem By GREENLEAF B. JOHNSON Paris has its Latin Quarter Chicago has its Hyde Park Bohemia. New York has its Greenwich Village Each of those unique districts, with their bohemian populations and romantic haunts, is given over to persons of letters science and art. There these lovers of wisdom and worshippers of art pursue their particular vocation in both cathetic and liberal arts. Come now into Harlem the White Peacock Inn, a reproduction of the Greenwich Village Tea Room, situated on the ground floor of No. 204 West 138th street, the first of its kind to invade Harlem. The White Poncock is a scheme conceived by Mr Douglas O Howe, its proo ristor, to bring into closer association, to encourage and to strengthen that group of Negro men and women in Harlem who aspire to the attainment of proficiency in literature, science and art. The enterprise meets a long felt need, and has already become the randevous for both acknowledged and struggling artists who are pursuing their several avocations. Harlem, with its mot.ay Negro population, not only teams with lettered persons, but is also possessed of many persons engaged in skillful adaptation and application to some purpose of the use of knowledge or power consequently, one expects aestheticism to find expression in this heterogeneous group. Mr Howe himself, who belongs to the young and aggressive element of Harlem's smart set, having made some pretensions to music and drama both as a concert artist and as a director, promises the public a treat in formal grand opening of the White Peacock Inn when the remodeling process and the decorations have been completed. The decorations are being executed by H Curtis Brown, artist and decorator. The color scheme is orange and black, supported by fancy tints and shades, with the usual fantastic effect peculiar to bohemian tastes. Mr E. H. Margeston, a well known knight of the brush, has enhanced the walls with two very striking silhouettes which contrast oddly with the painting of a strutting white peacock on the opposite wall. The present library is being remodeled to comprise a cozy den, which will be equipped with writing materials, and it will be amplified by the addition of a choice number of books and will contain all leading newspapers and periodicals. The White Peacock opens daily at 11 o'clock a.m. and closes at 2 a.m. the following day Tea, coffee, light lunches and refreshments are served at popular prices during this period. The White Peacock is operated on a democratic basis, women being accorded the same courtesy and privileges as men. There one will be able to smoke like a chimney-pot, refreshments like a modern "dapper," write a social letter, pore over literature, and visit with kindred spirits where like attracts like and where the wine of high converse passes around. The Negro World congratulates Mr. Howe, the proprietor, and wishes the White Peacock success in proportion. of the race difficulty at Kirvin had been received and several thousand men heavily armed were rushing to the scene. According to reports received at Corsicana, between 78 and 100 Negroes are lined up about three miles southeast of Kirvin, heavily armed. All citizens of Streetman, eight miles north of Kirvin, except a few left on guard, the report said, have responded to calls for help. FORT WORTH, Tex. June 2—Telephone communication between Fort Worth and Kirvin is cut off and all telephone lines between Dallas and Kirvin, except one line through Wortham, have also been cut. Teague reports that 500 men left there tonight for a place near Kirvin where it was reported armed Negroes were preparing to march against the white residents of that section. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1922 NEGRO COLLEGE MEN AND WOMEN UNITE TO URGE PASSAGE OF ANTI-LYNCHING BILL K. K. K. ACTIVE IN OMAHA The Monitor, a Negro weekly edited by Rev John Albert Williams, is in receipt of a letter signed "K. K. K." and censibly mailed from New York, protesting against an anti-lyning editorial published in the Monitor two weeks ago. It is evident, from the tone and construction of the letter, that the writer has made a desperate—but futile—attempt to be low-browed. RIGHT ABOUT FACE AND GROW By ROBERT L POSTON White America has always been a self-contained and a self-contented nation. Her attitude has been. "If it is worth while, we have it." Being a country rich in natural resources she has been able to maintain this attitude without any serious inconvenience to herself. She has enjoyed the condition which makes the rest of the world seek her favor. She has concerned herself in little else besides herself, hence she has denied herself the lead in the affairs of the world, which she could easily take. This grievous error is reflected in her own proud children, who are o match for some of the foreigners who come to us inspired by different motives. It is becoming noticeable that the man who seek our shores by the thousands each year bring to us something which we could not be well without. Drawn to our country because of oppression they come with their faces set against oppression. Cursed in the fatherland because of low economical condition they are desirous that their children should have it better. They furnished that flow of new blood necessary to relieve that state of anemia brought on by the native stupidity. Thus we have Gompers, an Englishman, heading the great American Federation of Labor. We have the clothing industry in this country, owned and controlled by Jews from Russia and Germany. The restaurant industry has fallen into the hands of the Greeks, and right on down the line of industry you will find that this same condition prevails. And all because the native son has been chloroformed by a sense of his own importance and has fallen into the easy way of saying, "Let George do it." Perhaps this condition of affairs would not trouble us so much if it were not for the fact that the Negro in this country, quite imitative, has fallen into the error of his white masters. He is beginning to think that there is nothing worth knowing which is not already known in this country. He looks upon the outer world as a wilderness, and even speaks of Africa as "that country." Of course, it may seem strange to see the Negro take this attitude, in view of the fact that this country means so little to him, but when we reflect that he has been living all his days in a country given entirely to introspection with a Monroe doctrine as a safeguard, we can account for the narrow, unhumanitarian, self-contained attitude of his. This attitude has not served to help this country any. The Negro least of all can afford to continue it, in view of his great outlying interest throughout the world. He would render the country a great service if he would lead off in a crusade against this narrowness. We are missing many good things because of our isolated position in the world. The American white man cannot give us freedom, because he is not free himself. He will not give up his prejudices. But shall we let him impose them upon us? Forbid it. Almighty God I know not what course others may take, but as for me I shall face the world and grow, WASHINGTON. D. C. June 5.—One of the important steps being taken in behalf of the passage of the Anti-Lynching Bill now before the Congress of the United States is the combined effort of the Negro college fraternities and sororites to promote the holding of the Ani-Lynching Day, to be observed throughout the United States, when the whole story of the atrocious crime of lynching will be told from every pulpit and before every social, religious and fraternal organization in the country. Inter-Fraternal Committee on Public Affairs Farmed a result of the Inter-Fraternity Conference recently held in Washington, a council was formed composed of representatives of the four largest Negro college fraternities—the Alpha Phi Alpha, the Kappa Alpha Pal, the Omega Psi Phi and the Phi Beta Sigma—and the three Negro college sororities—the Alpha Kappa Alpha, the Delta Sigma Theta and the Zeta Phi Beta. In order to carry out the recommendations of the conference, the Inter-Fraternial Council, with the following members: Dr. Sadie Tanner Mossell, chairman; Mr J Alston Atkinson, secretary; Mr A. L Taylor, treasurer; Miss Joanna R. Houston, Mr. Raymond P. Alexander Mr. George F. David and Mrs. Lorraine R. Green, formed a committee on public affairs to be located at Washington, D.

PORBES Kingston Jamaica, May 15 On Tuesday evening, April 25 there was a monster gathering at the St Marks Hail. West street, to mark the opening of the Dorcas Society and Child Welfare Department in connection with the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Kingston Division. This department is managed by Mrs L B Alken, Mrs B. Alkina, Mrs Ada Jones and Misa Lydia Miller. The meeting took the form of a musical evening at the conclusion of which light refreshments were served. The chair was occupied by the Rev S M Jones, president of the association, assisted by Mrs. A. T Walker, president of the Ladies' Division; The Hon. Jas. O Mealy, High Commissioner, and Mr F W Bailey. In opening the meeting the president outlined the necessity of the Doreas Society and Child Welfare Department, and endeavored to bear out his point by referring to a number of ragged children, fifty in all, assembled at the rear of the building, which were our guests of the evening. He also referred to some prominent men of today who were raised in rescue homes in other parts of the world and of the ladies of the division for some time now. The president also called attention to the pittable condition the children were in through no fault of their own, their parents not having the wherewithal to provide suitably for them, and as they were human beings as other children are, it was the duty of every man and woman to see that some kind of help be extended to them. The lady president also gave a very forceful address, pointing out her feelings as a mother and calling upon all the women to rally to the aid of the poor unfortunate children, and do whatever was in their power, as there was no home provided for the rescue and better training of these children, especially the girls who were to be the mothers of other children. The Hon. Jas. O'Meally then gave a short but inspiring address, at the same time pointing out that while Jamaica and the Jamaicans are always willing AND WOMEN UNITE OF ANTI-LYNCHING BILL Committee on Public Affairs recently met at the call of Mr A L Taylor, treasurer of the Inter-Fraternal Council, and elected as permanent chairman Miss G. Dorothy Pelham, of Delta Sigma Theta sorority, and as permanent secretary, Mr Norman L McGhee, national secretary of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. The committee went into a full discussion of the matters presented for its consideration, and decided that it would undertake to promote, through the chapters and members of the fraternities and sororities having membership on the Inter-Fraternal Council, an Anti-Lynching Day. In this connection it will seek to have a message on anti-lynching given from every pulpit in every city and town in the United States on that day; have every social, fraternal and religious society hold meetings, and have a monster circulating program and distribution of posters, hand cards and pamphlets. An interview with the Senate Judiciary Committee, which has the Anti-Lynching Bill before it at the present time, is being asked at an early date. F. E. MILLER, OF "SH ALONG" FAME, EL OF MANASSAS I The annual spring meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Manassas Industries School was held at Manassas, Va., on May 10. During the course of the meeting F. E. Miller, the ranking Negro comedian of the country, was elected a trustee. This action resulted from the recommendation, of Prince L. Edwoods to Edward D. Howe, principal. Mr. Miller had signified his willingness to serve if chosen, to Mr. Edwoods when interviewed concerning the matter. Such singular recognition of the --- assert that the morale of this division is second to none. When the news of the arrest of our leader the Hon Marcus Garvey, was taken to us by the Honorable Commissioner Mr C B Bournes, this division like one man stood behind him, declaring, 'stentorian voice through a cablegram that we were behind him with our money and our blood also if necessary Little did those traitors know that in trying to ridicule Marcus Garvey they were enhancing the cause of Africa. New members are continually swelling our ranks, and the words of our Chaplain, the Hon George Knight, on this solemn occasion shall always be remembered by us 'Stand for the right,' he said, which cannot fall'. Let them kill Marcus Garvey if they can, but Ethiopia shall yet stretch forth her hands unto God. V.

Mr F W Bailey next spoke, and brought out the necessity of looking after the girl, as without the women no community could be a success, and to raise successful women we must first start on the girls. The musical program was under the directorship of Miss L. Miller, the or- ganist, who has spared no pains since she has taken up her work in connec- tion with the musical part of the U N I A. Special mention must be made of the baritone solo by Mr McCormack, also the imitation violin solo by Mr Stew- art, the human gramophone. Among the donations for the Dorcas Society and Child Welfare Department were a new Singer sewing machine, several yards of cloth, some ready-made clothing and a locker. A contribution box was also presented and received a number of visitors. The function was brought to a close about 10 p.m. after the youngsters had filled up on the dainty prepared for them by the ladies in charge of the society are at present doing credit to their country. These children were collected from all parts of the city and have been under the care of Mr. Nixon and some ETHICS OF NURSING For Members of the Universal African Black Cross Nurses By ISABELLA LAWRENCE, R. N. Ethics is defined as the science of moral conduct and duty By moral conduct and duty we understand the relationship of our acts to and effects upon our fellowmen Nursing ethics may be divided thusly 1. The nurse's duty toward her patient. 2. Her duty toward the attending physician. 3. Her duty to her patient's friends or the household wherein she serves. 4. Her duty toward her fellow-nurse. 5. Her duty to herself. We shall now discuss the last two-named. The nurse's duty to her fellow-nurse may be summed up in one word, "loyalty." Nurses should endeavor to cultivate the spirit of loyalty. We are confident that they would if they think seriously enough of the havoc disloyalty works among the ranks. No nurse is responsible for the faults of others, but she is responsible for her own words and actions. If we cannot sincerely praise those with whom we work we can at least be silent. Beware of gossiping and grumbling, the qualities of a small soul, a distorted mind. Every nurse can help to check the tendency to gossip by refraining from doing so herself and by making a kindly remark in answer to a bitter attack on some fellow-nurse. Any woman who possesses the moral courage to show plainly by her manner or by words that she is not interested when idle and undesirable conversation is going on exerts an influence for good that is bound to be felt. Grumbling is a most depressing habit; it depresses the grumbler and all those who are unfortunate enough to be her companions. The influence of the grumbler is distinctly harmful; that nurses should refrain from grumbling does not mean that they should endure everything or BUFFLE ECTED TRUSTEE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL pralsworthy efforts of the entire "Huffle Along" company and the New York colored public cannot be disputed. Through the united cooperation of the entire cast the Manamos Industrial School cleared $1,032.67 off a Sunday night concert at the Sixty-third Street Music Hall on March 6. The choir of Mr. Miller is a compliment to the public-attended attitude of Kirkman and the "Huffle Along" members.

For the sake of all that is noblest and best within you retain from tildy spreading a feeling of discount that help nobody and binders many. "It is better to fight for the good than to rail at the ill." Set a high standard for yourselves and undeavor to reach it; awaken the best qualities that are latent within you, for only by so doing can you ever hope to "measure up" to what is expected of you. The nurse's duty to herself should be to conserve her health and strength by following the rules of personal hygiene with which she is supposed to be very well acquainted. We are anxious for nurses to bear in mind that it ultimately depends upon themselves whether their services are to be considered valuable and helpful and their presence longed for and welcomed when the necessity arises or whether they will prove themselves unworthy to wear the uniform. A nurse cannot always help other people manner toward her, but she can usually by her department make it what she wishes it to be. Miss Eva C. E. Lucken, late matron of the London Hospital, truly states. "There is no work more directly affected by the character of the worker than nursing." Our nurses would do well to think seriously of these words originally addressed to artists. "Whatever of dignity whatever of strength we have within us will dignify and make strong the labors of our hands. whatever littleness degrades our spirit will lessen them and drag them down. Whatever noble fire is in our hearts will burn also in our work; whatever purity is ours will chasten and exalt it for as we are so our work is, and what we sow in our lives that, beyond a doubt, we shall reap, for good or for ill in the strengthening or defacing of whatever gifts have fallen to our lot BAKHMETEFF READY TO CLOSE EMBASSY Last Recognized Russian Envoy to Leave, Hughes Announces Washington. June 5.—On June 2. Boris Bakhmeteff. Ambassador of the last recognized (Keronsky) Government of Russia, will terminate his service in the United States, bringing to an end an anomalous diplomatic situation. This fact is disclosed in correspondence between the Ambassador and Secretary of State Hughes made public last night by the State Department. The Russian envoy is notified that the State Department will cancel his credentials June 30. In the correspondence cognizance is taken of the charges of misuse of Russian Embassy funds, produced in the Senate early in May by Senator Borah (Rep. Idaho). A detailed statement of the Embassy's expenditures is given by Mr. Mellon, who said that the $187,000,000 advanced by the United States was "used solely for the purchase of obligations of the Russian Government in accordance with the Liberty Loan Acts." Friends Restrain Him, However, Believing Calder Has G. O.P. Nomination Sawed Up Washington, June 6—Friends of Theodore Roosevelt, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, have been "witting on his neck" during the past two or three weeks to prevent him from making what they think would be an ill-advised announcement of his intention to become a candidate for the Republican nomination for Senator from New York against William M. Calder. So far they have prevented him from making any statement on the New York Senatorial situation but they fear Teddy, Jr., one of those days will say something to the newspapers that might mean a political setback for him. Roosevelt desires to lead a more active political dife. Washington politicians know he is politically ambitious and exceedingly anxious to go to the Senate. He likes neither the idea of making the race against Senator Wedsworth nor the prospect of waiting until 1928, when Wedsworth will be up for re-election. He thinks this is the propitious time for him to become a candidate. Deep in their hearts his advisers believe that nothing short of a miracle would make it possible for their protege to make the race in New York with a fair chance of success. They believe Senator Calder has the Republican organization sewed up tightly enough to make his nomination a sure thing, no matter who runs against him.

Tourgee. This nation will have to pay the penalty either in this generation or the next, for the bloody carnival of lynching which has disgraced it in the eyes of all Christian peoples. There is no escape; no way by which it can be avoided. It must Pay! Pay! Pay!!! THE POSSUMIST AND THE PESSIMIST FEW years ago Rev Dr. John Chadwell, secretary of the Allen Endeavor Society of the A M. E Church, electrified a Christian Endeavor society in Atlantic City in a short, impassioned speech. He said: "I am a 'Possumist' rather than 'Pessimist' because 'Possum' in the Latin means 'I can.'" This speech occurred to us on our lecture tour through New England. We met two black men who came to the North in war times and found no difficulty in working with white men in work that called for skill. We met another black man equally as intelligent, who found considerable difficulty in working with white men in work that called for skill. The first two men always had two jobs at their beck and call. The third experienced considerable difficulty in getting and holding a job. So we made a study of the psychology of the three men. In the first place, the first two men owned their own homes and owed very little except the small mortgage on their homes. The third man did not own the shack he lived in and owed more than one creditor The first two thus had a natural advantage, as they were regarded as prosperous citizens, while the third was not regarded as a prosperous citizen. Then, too, the first two men were bright and alert mentally. They were optimistic in temperament. They were surrounded with an atmosphere of joy and cheerfulness and they radiated joy and cheerfulness. They possessed magnetic personalities. The third man possessed a keen and analytical mind. But he was pessimistic in temperament. He was a doubting Thomas. He was surrounded with an atmosphere of sadness and melancholy and his personality radiated sadness and melancholy. He was not magnetic. Then we thought of the adage, "Laugh and the world laughs with you, weep and you weep alone." Then, again, the first two workmen tackled their jobs with vim and vigor and talked about the current events of the day. The third workman was bowed down with sorrow and oppressed with grief because he was black and his race was despised by the rest of mankind. Then we thought of the adage that usually men give you the treatment that you expect of them. The first two men, with erect head and confident bearing, felt that they were and expected to be treated as men. And they were. The third man with sad face, melancholy voice and pensive manner felt that he was a Negro and expected to be treated as a Negro. And he was. Now the first two men were as keen and intelligent as the third. They, too, were conscious of the fact that they belonged to a prescribed and prescribed race. They, too, were conscious of the disadvantage of their lot and condition. But by an effort of will they shock off the feeling of pessimistic fatalism that was taking possession of them and, like a strong swimmer, shook off the water from their eyes and struck out for the shore. And the white workmen saw in the two black men men of heroic caliber, cast in the same mould as the men who crossed the Atlantic in the Mayflower and planted a commonwealth in Massachusetts, and who crossed the Alleghenies, battled with Indiana, wild beasts and the forces of nature and built up the Western section of this country. And instinctively they accorded heroism the respect and admiration which it always calls forth, even though it manifests itself in ebony hue. But the third man was bowed down and oppressed by the yoke of hate and oppression that he and his race had to bear. He was overcome by the feeling of pessimistic fatalism, felt that it was no use to struggle against the inevitable, threw up the sponge and ripped out, "I give up the battle. I am whipped." And the white workmen saw in him the type of man who does not wrest victory out of defeat; who does not tunnel mountains and bridge chasms; who does not in pioneer fashion blaze a path through the forests and reclaim the wilderness. Hence they did not accord him that respect and admiration that they accord heroes, men who can rise above the discomforts of a toothache and stomach ache, disappointments and obstacles andhew out the path to victory. The third man was slightly older than the first two, not quite as perfect in health and had experienced more disappointments. He was a man of unusual intelligence, but couldn't realize that white employees gave the first two men work because they regarded them as assets and him because they sympathized with him and that hence ```markdown ``` there were not as many jobs at his command as were at the command of his two friends. This is the way of life. 'Tis sad, but 'tis true. Nothing succeeds like success. The tendency of man is to flutter around the prosperous man like moths around the flame, and to kick the under dog. If men think you don't need help they are always ready to give or lend . dollar or treat you to a dinner. If they think you are up against it and are on the rocks financially they will pass by on the other side, as did the priest and Levite when they saw the man who fell among robbers. And there are ten priests and ten Levites to one good samaritan. Now we have analyzed the mental attitude and philosophy of life of these three black men, not so much because of our personal interest in them as because they represent the two types of Negro mind and the two types of mankind in general. We are told in Proverbs, 16th chapter, 32d verse. "He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city." This is true because it requires more faith and a more heroic outputting of the will for a man to triumph over his own doubts and fears than to charge a citadel. The thing for our pessimist and other pessimists, black and white, to do is to rise above their doubts and fears, change their mental attitude and philosophy of life and substitute the "Possumist," the "I can," for the Pessimist, the "I can't," philosophy of life. Then men will unconsciously see in them heroes and instinctively give them the recognition that heroism, whether it wears a white or saffle garb, calls for. For a man who can shake off the feeling of fatalistic pessimism and say with Terence, Rome's tawney-hued poet, "I am a man and nothing that is common to humanity is here go to me," is a hero. HARVARD AND THE JEW CONSIDERABLE excitement prevailed around Boston Mass. when the Boston American stated Friday morning, June 2 that prominent Jews claimed that the "limitation of enrollment" campaign under way at Harvard was cleverly designed to cloak a subtle drive against Jewish scholars. It was also stated that Jews have not been welcomed into the college fraternities and that most of the 375 Jewish students "have already felt the sting of the lash of racial prejudice in scholastic competition, in social life and in athletics." The skies cleared, however, when the evening edition of the Boston American stated in headlines "Jews Win at Harvard—Faculty Decides Against Ban—Admission Board's Powers Will Not Be Extended for Present at Least." The article began as follows "The faculty of Harvard College, at a secret meeting, voted to bring a halt to the furore aroused by the alleged campaign against admission of Jews to the famous institution by voting not to give the Admission Board more powers as planned." And Arthur Brisbane under the caption "No Harvard Race Line," stated that Dean Greensough announced "that there will be no discrimination at Harvard against Jews or any other citizens." As we have been away from the Hub for more than seven years, we know absolutely nothing about internal affairs at Harvard. But if what the Boston American said was true, the anti-Semitic spirit started in September, 1915, when Jewish students sought to have President Abbot Lawrence Lowell postpone their entrance examinations because the examination day fell on the Day of Atonement, the Jewish New Year. The Jewish students made a mistake there because they raised the race and religion issue by asking special favors and concessions because they were Jews. That meant that the faculty would have to prepare and correct two separate sets of examination papers. It would also establish a dangerous precedent because a Roman Catholic, Hindoo or Mohammedan student could ask for postponement of examination day if it fell upon one of his sacred days. The Seventh Day Adventist student could ask to be released from attending classes on Saturday because that was his Sabbath day. We are, however, glad that Harvard, which in the past has meted out scholastic and athletic honors and rewards upon merit, and has not permitted race, color or creed to blind her to the worth of a man, will maintain the lofty traditions which were set in motion by President C W Eliot, Dean Andrew Peabody, Dean C C Everett, Dean Briggs and Professors Royce, James, Palmer, Toy, Thayer and Norton. The tendency of some American universities is to be metamorphosed from institutions of learning into social clubs where the sons of the rich hold regal sway and dictate "Who Is Who." Therefore, in the words of a former colored porter of the Old Colony railroad station "We rejoice that Harvard has not hoisted herself down from that elevated position which she has held so long." The Boston Saturday American pictured Dr Richard C. Cabot, assistant professor in the Harvard Medical School, as a Jew baiter. From his discussions in the seminar of the late Prof Josiah Royce, from his writings and from conversations with a physician who called him into consultation and from a patient that he treated, we could not conceive of his hating a man simply because he belonged to a different race or professed a different creed. Universities are more or less affected by the Zeit Geist. And the tendency of the present age, the drift of American civilization, is away from the life of high thinking and plain living, which was the idealistic dream of Ralph Waldo Emerson. As to whether Harvard will be engulfed by the crass and sordid materialism of the modern age, which underestimates spiritual value and blindly worships riches, whether obtained by fair means or foul, or whether she will resolutely set herself against the rising tide of American materialism, race prejudice, caste prejudice and artificial social distinctions, calling the world back to the forsaken ideals of the lowly Nazarine Father Time alone can tell. THE NEGRO INTELLECTUAL THE Negro intellectual is a certainty Everybody knows that by this time. Even the distinguished editor of the Crisis takes cognizance of the fact! Organize the intelligencia of the race and then look out! It is bound to accomplish far-reaching results. For a long time the Negro intellectual was like a wandering sheep, lowly, starving, disillusioned. Then, like an oasis in the Sahara, a spark of sympathetic response began to flicker; soon the horizonal wasgleaming with stars of hope and communion. One by one the ebony sages began to gather together. In barber shops and basements, tea shops and railroad flats, art and education, literature and the race question were discussed with an abandon that was truly Bohemian. Let us hope that the Negro intellectuals will come together. If they do it will be the forwardest step in the growth of FOREIGN AFFAIRS BY DUSE MOHAMED ALI It transpires that Horatio Bottomley, the Negro-hating editor of "John Bull," the weekly London publication, has been sentenced to seven years' penal servitude by the English courts for fraud on the British poor, as well as upon the ex-soldiers who were "taken in" by his financial schemes, which were presumably operated in their interesta. Bottomley, who was the greatest financial humbug of modern times, was a great imperialist. His idea was to exploit Africa and Asia, so as to make these two continents, or such portions of them as happened to be under the British crown, pay for the war and thereby relieve the British taxpayer from his oppressive burdens. During the war he advocated the drafting of African troops to fight the battles of the empire. He said, in effect, that the sacrifice of African manhood on the European war front on the altar of European cupidity did not matter as long as European lives were saved to the British nation, and that this would be a comprehensive means of solving the African race problem on the principle that the only good "niggers" were dead "niggers." He defended the action of the whites in the Liverpool, London and Cardiff riots, where hundreds of colored people—Africans and Asiatics—were slaughtered by Englishmen in cold blood, in the dock districts of these cities, merely because these colored people, who had taken care of their earnings and who treated their white wives with greater consideration and respect than the average Briton did, were the most law-abiding and self-respecting members of those rather low-class white communities. As was to be expected as a result of the recent accusations by the head of the American Relief Committee in Asia Minor of Turkish massacres of Greeks and Armenians, that the Nationalist Government would have something further to say in the matter, the Angora Government has also now demanded that the relief should be universal and not be confined to Greek and Armenian orphans as heretofore, but that Arabs and other Muslims must be included in the scheme and that the distribution of relief must be carried out without distinction as to creed or race. All relief parties in Asia Minor must first obtain permission from the Turkish Government before passing from one town to another, and all relief must be distributed through the local Turkish police, who are henceforth to control the distribution. This is as it should be. Nationalist Turkey is at war with Greece. The Greeks have many American sympathizers who have never understood the real situation in Asia Minor and theakkans. It naturally follows that those members of the Relief Committee who may be seen pathetically inclined towards the Greeks and Armenians would very conceivably give most valuable military information to the Greeks. This could not be tolerated, whatever the cost to the Nationalist Government. No insult is intended to Americans in Kamel Pasha's decree, nor does he nullify the humanitarian character of the committee. In taking necessary precautions he is doing what any other government would do in similar circumstances. The official report from Peking, which states that Japan has signed to the Chinese Government her intention to withdraw from Hankow, in accordance with the resolutions of the Washington conference, goes to show that Japan is substituting pacific methods for her hinter to domineering manner in China. Hankow is a highly important center on the Yangtze River, 600 miles from the sea, and is not only the southern terminus of the great Peking-Hankow Railway, but is also one of China's largest cities, as well as the principal trading emporium of Central China. Japan has occupied Hankow for many years for the purpose of safeguarding Japanese interests along the Yangtze valley. Stragetically the position was good and there was no doubt about its economic value to Japan. As a matter of fact, Japan used the anti-Japanese roots, resulting from her presentation of the notorious twenty-one points, as an excuse for sending an army to this key military position, from whence she hoped to dominate China. It must be conceded that successive American statesmen and diplomats have consistently sought this withdrawal, and it is due to the Washington conference that China once more regains one of her most important commercial centers According to a report published in Washington on May 30 by the American Commission to Promote Self-Government in India, Mohandas Gandhi is being treated with less consideration than is usually shown to criminal prisoners. Gandhi is incarcerated in the Yeravda Jail, near Poona. The superintendent of the prison has ruled that India's Nationalist leader shall not receive more than two visitors every three months. The Indian patriot was visited by his son Devdani and C Rajagopalacharcear in April. The latter reports that Gandhi is given a diet of goat's milk with two oranges daily. To this the superintendent has generously promised to add raisins' The day's supply of goat's milk is served at one time and must be consumed promptly, otherwise it is spoiled by the intense heat. The poor man is not allowed a pillow, which the superintendent declared to be a luxury. He is not permitted to read newspapers nor books. Even strictly religious works are denied him. He is kept during the night in a solitary confinement cell which is locked. The report states that though the jailer claimed Gandhi had put on weight, he did not appear to be in good health. This is the fate of all patriots—especially those of the colored variety—who dare lift up their voices in protest against the rule of the European alien Millions of Indian money was sunk in the late war. Thousands of India's sons died in the trenches of France and Flanders for British freedom, and nearly one hundred thousand have been sacrificed by shooting, hanging or imprisonment for life within the last few years, exclusive of the Amritsa, Punjab and Malabar massacres, because they dared ask for that freedom for which their brothers fought and died on the French war front to save England from extinction. Does England think that the blood of these men does not cry out to heaven for vengeance? Does England believe that she can hold a determined people in the bonds of subjugation? According to the British idea of justice, Gandhi is a political offender, not a common criminal. He did not incite the people of India to root and bloodshed. He stood for the freedom of his people, which is the inalienable right of all mankind, regardless of race, color or creed. The ethics of common humanity demand that he should be entitled to greater consideration than the prison superintendent appears willing to grant. This kind of treatment is not calculated to enhance British prestige, nor is it likely to stem the rising tide of Indian Nationalism. It is rather calculated to inflame the minds of the timid and strengthen the hands of those who strive for India's freedom. Emanuel Hertz, president of the Washington Heights Jewish Congregation, New York, in unveiling a bronze tablet dedicated to the members of the congregation who fell in the late war, said. "It is a striking phenomenon of this country that in none of the conferences, in none of the sessions of the great powers, from Versailles to Genoa, has the fate of the Jewish people in the different countries ravaged by the great war come up for discussion," and that "here indeed is the 'unknown soldier' of the world—a chilly and ungrateful world." He further asked if it is not time that at the conference which is about to take place at The Hague that this question of the Jews he taken up and finally settled. It must be admitted that the Jewish question requires—may, demands—the consideration of humanity at large, but there is another question of equal gravity and importance which demands a final settlement. The Jews have been granted Palestine, where they are being allowed to form their own government. That country is not their real homeland. They occupied it under Joshua, the Jew, and they drove the inhabitants out. In turn they were driven out by Titus, the Roman, and have been wanderers over the face of the earth for nearly two thousand years. On the other hand, the African is indigenous to the soil. A large portion of the population has been enslaved by Christian Europeans, both at home and abroad. He also fought in the great war, but he has not received a mandate from these same great powers, of which Mr Hertz speaks, to govern himself. On the contrary, the result of his sacrifices in the great war has been a further term of enslavement in his own homeland at the hands of those men whom he helped to free with his blood and his labor. If anyone has a rightful claim upon the title of "unknown soldier," there can be little doubt that that title is the property of the African, who has only obtained political, economic and territorial disadvantage by way of reward. The Jews have their money and the 111 "STRUT MISS LIZZIE" Outside of Spain Blasco Ibanes is feted as the best of Spanish "best sellers." At home, however the Spaniards—and they ought to know—don't think a dickens of a lot about Ibane's works. Likewise, the Negro artists—with the exception of the "Shuffle Along" company—who desert Negro audiences, pack up, and hit the trail for Broadway, are on the lowest rung of the comic and dramatic ladder. This is especially true of Strut Mise Lizzie which opened Saturday night at Musky's National Winter Garden. Second avenue at Houston street. Because the Negro is associated with the traditional buffoon legends of this country and is a curio, this is no reason for bad actors and painful chorus girls to go downtown and make asses of them selves. In the entire show there were two single redeeming features—the handsome Mexican looking a in Rudolph Valentine, Mr Halliday (?) and Creamer and Layton's delightful singing. Oh those chorus girls! And those black-faced comedians! The lady with us is blonde, and is a diligent connoisseur of the theatre. "I've seen some bimbo shows," she declared, "a whole lot of them, I want to tell you, but this one boats all I can't even get up a laugh." The songs were old—"Dear Old Southland for example, the jokes we willish," the store stuff, "at amateurish If it lasts longer than a week it will be a positive miracle. ON "COPY" The lintoptist is on our neck, yelling. Here, how about that copy? Hurry up, willing. We are at a loss to know what to write. We scratch our bald head and gaze at the incandescent light before us. The music of the machines is beautiful. It soothes our nerves. Above the noise of the shop we can hear the jargon of the make-up man and the proof chasers. It is a glorious place to be in. Only under such catharsis circumstances is it possible for us to sit down and serenely think. We must have the smell of ink at our nostrils, and the buzz of the machines in our ears before we can do anything properly. It is the only way. Yes, we are a creature of temperament, and overwhelmingly adaptable. Yesterday for instance—but the printer, a savage gleam in his eye is at us again. How about that copy?

EDITORIAL NOTES Some of our public characters and leading journals of news and opinion discuss public questions and international problems as seriously and with quite as much clarity of reasoning and forcefulness of logic as white man to whom those problems are more nearly related than to us, and who feel keenly the weight of the burden their solution imposes. We, unfortunately cannot enthuse over them as the brethren aforementioned, because we do not enthuse easily. The State of Georgia is becoming more and more notorious in recent years through the disreputable characters it sends to the Senate to represent and disgrieve it. Tom Watson is the last affliction. He is a bully and self-styled prize fighter and wants to smash in the faces of all who disagree with him.

FERRIS Assistant President General of the U. N. I. A, and Author of "The African Abroad" The Automobile Craze On Saturday, May 31, Mr George W. Perdue, A. M. Assistant Library and Book Review Editor of the A. M. E. Church Review, took us for a three-hour spin in his car. We went through Commonwealth avenue and the Penway, and by the side of Charles River, crossed Harvard Square, speeded through North Cambridge and Somerville until we struck the popular road to Revere, and climbed a hill which gave a magnificent view. Then we retraced our steps and edited our journey in the home of Lawyer Clement G. Morgan, Harvard's first class erator. We passed by beautiful residence, splendid parks, lots where boys played baseball and streams of water. But what impressed us most was the constant stream of automobiles coming and going in every direction. It seemed as if nearly all of Boston was taking a holiday on four wheels. On the afternoon of Decoration Day we sat on the plaza of the residence of Rev. John J Banka, on Bridge street, Middletown, Conn., facing the calm and peacefully flowing waters of the stately Connecticut river. Across the river could be seen the green fields and lofty trees of Portland. But what impressed us the most for an hour was the steady stream of automobiles on Bridge street, the popular auto road to Hartford and Springfield. The Loomobile, Packard, Paige, Peerless, Hudson, Cadillac, Mitchell and Ford cars speeded by. Some cars were large, some small, some closed, some open, some new, some old, some well furnished, some caked with mud, some rolling on large wheels, some on small wheels. But all were filled with happy parties, many of them going nowhere in particular, but just riding around. Why the joy and rest? There are six reasons why an auto ride is enjoyable: First, you get over ground rapidly; secondly, you see a great many beautiful sights and some splendid bits of scenery; thirdly, you get plenty of fresh air; fourthly, you can lay back in the car and take it easy; fifthly, if you are at the wheel you feel the joy of the mastery and control of the forces of nature, and sixthly, when you ride in an auto you have the appearance of prosperity and give the impression of wealth, the twin gods before which America reverently bows and worships. Just as the Roman aristocrats revelled in the luxury of the charlot, just as the Englishman and American of a generation ago revelled in the coach and four horses, so the modern American ravals in the luxury of the automobile. The owning of a Locomobile, Packard, Pallud and Hudson is the thermometer which registers the surplus cash of a person. The Disadvantage of the Auto And yet much as we enjoyed that auto ride, we enjoyed as much the trulley ride from Worcester to Newton where we changed cars for Wollestey Hilla. We enjoyed the invigorating breeze, the passing rapidly by lakes, streams, meadows, fields and cluster of bills. But what we enjoyed most was the two-mile hike after we alighted from the car. In an auto ride you move so rapidly that scenes and views pass by with the swiftness and rapidity of motion pictures, and you can not drink in the full beauty of the magnificent views. Then, again, you can't foot it through the woods and by-pass, where you unexpectedly run across new visions of beauty. But the latter disadvantages are overcomp in a hike. A Miniature Garden of Eden We walked for over a mile and finally ENGLISH EDITION BATOUALA BATOUALA The Wonderful Book of the FRENCH NEGRO RENE MARAN that was awarded the GON- COURT LITERARY PRIZE for the year 1981 at PARIS, FRANCE. WILL BE DISTRIBUTED BY R. G. MINOR & Q. M. PATTEROON SUBSCRIBE AT ONCE, as the first edition will be limited and quickly absorbed. The Living Age, in a dattering com- ment on the book, says: Uncounsell's attempt to kill the other than with his sword during a hunt, and its own death by the blow of a gonner's paw, all set against a background of primitive life in our own day (from the novel's directly contemptuous) make a tale so strange, so powerful, and so unnatural that there is small difficulty in seeing why the ten rebels of the Academic Goncourt awarded it their prize. The Negro and Music The Negro World this week begins a series of six articles on "The Negro and Music," by Mr William Isles, Bandmaster at the headquarters of the U N I A Mr Isles is an indefatigable student and as able to combine art and propaganda in his articles in a remarkably congenial way. His print about the "Colerduguation" of Negro folk songs is worth considering we came to a miniature Garden of Eden. We climbed a hill that rose from a valley. On the hill we could see the green grass and clusters of cedar, spruce, pine and sim. And when we looked abroad, what a glorious vision we beheld! On the west we looked down upon a spacious farm. The growing vegetables were symmetrically set in even rows. The garden ran into a well kept lawn on the north side, which rose to a hill that was crowned with a large white house in colonial style, the home of the owner of the farm. Across the farm was a country road bordered by groves of trees. And the play of light and shadow on the farm caused by the glancing rays of the afternoon sun added to the beauty of the scene. On the west and south we looked down into meadows and fields studded with farm houses here and there, which gently ruse into forest covered hills. But the most magnificent spectacle was seen on the north. We looked down into a beautiful valley varied with farm lands, green fields and meadows, grove, hill and dale, which rose into clusters of verdant hills. Here and there on some hill houses could be seen nestling among the trees. They seemed like citadels commanding and overlooking the plains. Finally, about three or four miles away, running from east to west, was an encircling hill, teeming with forests and trees and overtopping all the other hills. That hill must have stretched from east to west a distance of fully five miles. It crowned the landscape. It was so high and so wide that it shut out the view of what was beyond. It was the end of the domain which our eyes surveyed. On the middle of that hill stood a very large white house, majestic in its proportions and dimensions. It was easily the largest and most imposing of the score of houses that we could see from our point of observation. Its breadth was impressive. It was evidently the home of a very rich man. From the plaza of that house his view can sweep a valley, out of which many small hills rise, twelve miles long and seven miles wide. Perhaps he can look even beyond Newton. Upper Falls, Wellsley Hills and Needham Heights. Perhaps his vision can sweep in all of Needham, all of the Newtons, all of Wellsley, Brookline and can discern, sixteen miles away, the glittering gilded dome of the State house and the sun kissed tower of the Custom House. Perhaps he could see the sun as it rose in Massachusetts Bay and set in Framingham. The hand of man completed Nature's masterpiece. For that house, like a mighty fortress, seemed to add the touch of human might and power to the might and majesty of Nature. It seemed to personify and typify man's power to overcome environment and triumph over hostile nature. The Value of the Hike Now this scene and those views, the most magnificent that we have witnessed in thirty villages, towns and cities that we visit in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut, would escape the autolist. The road leading to this beautiful view is off the popular automobile highways, because it does not lead from one large city to another. Then, the road is narrow and rough and rocky. And that is a road that the joyrider and auto tourist always avoids. Of course, the autolist will journey to Stonham, the Felia, alight at Spott Pond and walk around. But we believe that there are many similar garden spots of nature best reached by foot or on horseback, off the popular auto thoroughfares, that the autolist frequently misses. We observed, too, an auto driven by a fat man in which a fat young woman and a fat middle-aged woman and two dogs were riding. We saw the fat man and the fat young woman get out to get some gasoline. The fat man was in his forties, the fat woman was in her early thirties. He was slightly below the medium height and weighed over two hundred pounds. She was slightly above the medium height and weighed close to two hundred pounds. The fresh air, the invigorating breeze, t. sensation of being rapidly whirled through the air and the landscape rapidly passing by did them good. But the health of all of the occupants of the car would be greatly improved if they devoted part of the holiday to hiking. A temples daily walk on the part of the gentleman and a five-mile daily walk on the part of the lady would greatly assist in reducing the surplus arundinis. Necrea Owning Automobiles We waited one city where a colored man could not be regarded as prosperous unless he owned a car. A car is a necessity to a physician with a large practice, and to a business man whose business necessitates his being first in one part and then in another part of the town. It is a comfort to a person with a large parish, and it THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1922 is very handy to avail yourself of the auto when you are on your way to or from a railway station and are loaded down with luggage. But we have never seen the wisdom of blindly aping the Caucasian, and of doing a thing simply because a white man does it. The prosperous colored man and the prosperous white man who apes the style and manner of living of the millionaire always impressed us as being of unwise as the man we read of in the scriptures who built his house on the shifting sanda. A millionaire can buy a Hudson seal coat, with beaver or skunk collar, and a bird of paradise hat for his wife, he can buy and stand for the upkeep of a Locomobile, a Packard or Peigle car, and only spend from the top of his pocketbook. If a colored or white man worth $80.000 essays to do the same he will spend from the bottom of his pocketbook. If a colored man has his home paid for, has a few thousand dollars in the bank, and has income to pay for the upkeep of an automobile without exhausting his surplus income. It is well and good to buy a car. But if a man has to deplete his bank account to buy a car and then exhaust his surplus earnings in maintaining the upkeep of the car, in order to give the appearance of prosperity and wealth that he does not possess, he will ultimately come to grief. Two Types of Caucasian In one Connecticut town some Polish and Italian carpenters refused to work on the same building on which a Negro painter was employed. The boss, who was a Swede, yielded to the wishes of the men. In another Connecticut town some Italians refused to work on the same job with black men. The boss was a Yankee. He sent down to Virginia, imported some brawny and sinewy black men, then told the Italians: "I am boss of this brickyard. I employ whom I please. I allow no workmen to dictate to me whom I shall and shall not employ. If you do not care to work with black men you can take your hats and coats and look elsewhere for a job." The Italians bowed to the inevitable and now find it easy to work alongside of black men. The Swedish and the Yankee basses represent the two types of Caucasian. The Brookton Picture of a Negro Regiment A few weeks ago Mr Brown, of Brockton, Mass., sprang a pleasant surprise upon us. He carried us to the new City Hall, a splendid building. On the second floor we came to a large hall, decorated with historic paintings. The first large painting that we saw on the south side of the hall represented the heroic 54th Massachusetts Regiment charching upon Fort Wagner in the late Civil War. The Springfield Church The Springfield Citizen On Sunday evening, May 28, we proached in the Third Baptist Church of Springfield, Mass., of which Dr. Garnett R. Waller is pastor. It is the largest Negro church in Springfield and is well organised. It gave over $1,000 last year to the Baptist Forward Movement. Its pastor, Dr. Waller, is a (Continued on page 7) SURGEON-GENERAL DEPARTMENT TYPHOID FEVER SURGEON GENERAL'S OFFICE Definition Typhoid is a continued fever characterized mainly by its insidious onset by a peculiar course of the temperature, by marked abdominal symptoms occurring in connection with a peculiar ulceration of the bowels, by an eruption upon the skin, by its uncertain duration, and by a liability to relapses. This fever has received various names such as gastric fever, abdominal typhus, infantile remittent fever, slow fever, nervous fever. A clear distinction has been established between the two fevers not only as regards their symptoms and morbid features but also as regards their origin. While typhus fever is a disease of overcrowding and poverty, typhoid may occur where conditions are entirely excluded; and the connection of this malady with contamination of food or water by the bacillus of the disease is now established. Causes It has been completely proved that a bacillus discovered first by Eberth in 1880, and known as the bacillus typhosus, is the direct cause of the malady. The bacillus, just as in the case of the poison of other infectious diseases, is not equally hurtful at all times and in all circumstances. Thus where the discharges, sheets, etc. from t-phalloid patients are carefully disinfected, there is little risk of direct spread from person to person. Within recent years some cases presenting all the symptoms and morbid signs of a slight case of typhoid fever have been found associated with bacillus closely resembling, though different in some of important tests, from the bacillus typhosus. To these cases the name of paro-typhoid fever has been given, and the bacillus are known as "Paro-typhoid bacillus." The bacillus resides in the stools and urine of typhoid patients and when these decompose it seems to multiply and to acquire increased virulence. Thus in badly drained drains, where the contents are stagnate, the bacillus may increase indefinitely and by the contamination of drinking water in places where wells or cisterns are exposed to sewage pollution convey infection to a whole community. Dust may also act as the medium which conveys the benzil, in cases where the discharge of typhoid patient or the sewage is allowed to dry, and so be blown into drinking water or onto food. There is abundant evidence that milk may readily be contaminated by the bacillus and from the cause of an epidemic when a case of the fever has occurred in a dairy. The source of an epidemic has also been traced to the eating of oysters taken from oyster beds near which contaminated sewage is discharged. During an epidemic it can be readily understood that flies may also form a means of contamination between uncovered stools and uncovered food. In almost all cases, therefore, it may be said that the spread of typhoid fever depends upon food or drink contaminated by bacillus which is derived more or less directly from the discharges of previous typhoid cases. Typhoid fever is most common among the young, the majority of cases occurring between the ages of fifteen and twenty-five, though it does occur in rare instances at or beyond middle life. It attacks the well to do as frequently as the poor. The greater number of cases appear to occur during summer and autumn, and it prevails in all countries, though some of its features may be modifiable by climate and locality. Symptoms The symptoms characterizing the onset of typhoid fever are very much less marked than those of mast other fevers and the disease in the majority of instances sets in somewhat individually. Indeed it is no uncommon thing for patients with this fever to go about for a considerable time after its action has begun. The most marked of the early symptoms are headache, lestitis and discomfort altogether with sleepiness and feverishness partitions at night this last symptom is that by which disease is most rapidly detected in its early stage. Bleeding at the nose is also an early symptom in many cases. The potential course of the temperature is also one of the most important diagnostic evidences of this fever. During the first week it has a morning range of moderate fluride rise, but in the morning there is a marked ascent with a fall again toward morning. Morning and evening howsoever showing respectively a higher port that of the presure day will abide the eighth day when in an average case the highest point is attained. This varies according to the severity of the attack but it is no unusual thing to register 104 dog or 105 dog R in the evening and 103 dog or 104 dog F in the morning. Although the patient may during the earlier days of the fever be able to move to heels languid and uneasy and usually before the first week is over he has to take to bed and soon the effects of the attack becomes more apparent. He is restless, hot and uncomfortable particularly as the day advances. The pulse in an ordinary case, although more rapid than normal is not accelerated to an extent corresponding to the height of the temperature, and is at least in the earlier stage of the fever rarely above 100 dog. In severe and protracted cases where there is evidence of extensive intestinal ulceration the pulse becomes rapid and weak. The tongue has at first a thin whitish fur and is red at the tip and edges. It tends, however to be dry, brown or glazed looking, and fissured transversely while sores may be present about the tip and teeth. These is much thirst and in some cases vomiting. (To be continued next week) DISEASE—IS IT A FRIEND OR A ENEMY? By DR GERTRUDE MILLER FAYDE BY DR GERTRUDE MILLER FAYDE Whenever you purchase anything ranging from a furnace to an automobile, from a dog to a race horse, the first thing you do is to learn how to care for that thing intelligently. You want to get the best results possible from your investment. Why is it that we are all better inform 'as to the care of anything' under the sun than we are of our own bodies. The human body is the most perfect piece of mechanism ever put together. The best investment you and I can ever make is in ourselves—in other words, in good health. Bad health is a handicap in business, love, and any walk of life. This was clearly demonstrated in the late world war. The country that had the best chance of winning was the one whose army had the greatest endurance. Therefore each country started out to improve the health of each individual soldier. They say that a cat has nine lives, but man must have ninety-nine. There is no living creature on the face of the earth that could exist under the same living conditions that the average human being endures. Take any wild animal from the forest—the strongest lion—make him eat three meals a day whether he desires it or not, let him eat as much white bread as we do, and he would soon be so terribly constipated that he would in a short while die from one or more of the many diseases arising from improper eating. The body is at all three trying to maintain perfect health. When, from improper eating, too much impurity gets into the blood and circulates through every organ and every muscle, the body seeks to throw off or in some way get rid of this impure matter. The pain and distress we feel at this time is a warning that the body is having P A G E a grand housecleaning, or is trying to have one. The fever and pain is a warning that we are not treating our bodies right. If we heed the warning and correct our habitus, we will save ourselves serious illness and probably death. If we did not receive these warnings in the form of fever pain or as we call them disease—the body would go on and on being poisoned and mistreated and without any warning we would just suddenly die without a fighting chance. Disease is no more a mysterious calamity a matter of luck than it is mysterious when a coal stove refuses to throw out enough heat when the grate is full of ashes and clinkers. Disease is a friendly warning not an enemy and an ounce of prevention it worth a pound of cure. The world since the war has begun to study more closely the mechanism of man's body and respects it more than ever before. It is a sign of progress on the part of the U N I A. When we seek to instruct not only our Black Cross Nurses but every man and woman as well, on how to intelligently care for the wonderful body God has given him. I shall be glad to explain to you in simple language from time to time the different kinds of disease we may suffer from and how to avoid or correct them. How to eat and what to eat to build up a race of supermen and women. The strength of our organization depends upon the physical strength of its members.

New York City The Negro is here are some mum- biles of Union that there are or- ganized for fighting for the we- re to fight for. One that African were brought to this country down the outbreak of the Civil War that African lore was thus long conti- nually renewed among the Ameri- can Negroes. And another fact that the slave lived two, a one servant of the white and the other life of his own with which that was African in its traditions and its cultural background. This life was de- plied or good immodely liberated by the whites, but we are learning that some respects it was richer and more original than the white European liv- ization dominating it. This collection of folk songs shows us a little of the Negro cultural life. It is unsatisfactory because with a few exceptions we have on the words and the words here of the least account. The pasture songs the dance songs need the music and the motion. Without this they compare unfavorably with the arts and games of white children. The songs and games that are still played by street children (though the all kindergarten and public school songs have largely banished them from our playgrounds are often medieval in their origin and of lonely imagery. Take our May Day songs or London Bridge. The African songs as shown in this volume are poor in vocabulary and sometimes reminiscent of a Mother Goose tale as Gooseie Gooseie Gander or Patty Cake, Patty Cake. But this is natural as English was a foreign tongue to the African and he did not as yet made himself the master of that he is today. If it were not for Mr Tallies a lengthy and adverbial study of these rhymes, we would not half apreciate them. He interprets for us for instance, such a song as Jonah's Band Part: Betch a kickin up suan' Jonah's Ran' Betch a kickin up suan' Jonah's Ran' Hans' up sixteen' Circle to do right' We's gwine to git big eatings here tonight' This is a dance rhyme and one must first conjure up the swaying figures in their boisterous dance. The drum, the instrument that was used for the dance in Africa, was absent in America, and so the dancers pat hands and foot to the measure, unconsciously recalling the boom to which they formerly kept time. This is a "Call" and "Response" or "Bonse" verse, "Betch a kickin up suan'" is a solo, and If you are troubled with Eczema, Pimples, Blackheads, Tettar, Ringworm, itching Soap and Dandruff get Joyzone Skin Ointment at once.

EMONEI CARTER Subject—The Want of Spiritual Appeal Text. Matt 5 6—"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled" It is as natural for the human family to crave and long for the good things of this life as it is for water to seek its lowest level. Very often the things desired may appear good to us because of our selfishness, but when rightly considered those very things may prove our undoing. The Christ knew man, in all his changing moods, and spoke to him with understanding. 1. Desire is a condition and a prophecy of religious attainments. Wanting things enough to seek them earns before getting them. The successful men of the world are the men who hunger after wealth, honor, fame or wisdom. It is a law of death the lower life that appetites goes before eating and that desire for a dinner urges men to seek it. We cannot get either the higher or lower in life without wanting it. God puts spiritual attainments under this condition. We become righteous after and through desiring to become righteous. There is a real dearth for this righteous appetite. Most of us want anything else but righteousness. The price to be paid for it seems to dampen our ardor and we hesitate to purchase or to satisfy the growing desire the innate urge that comes us all in our sober moments of reflection. 2. This law of desire explains our spiritual powers. We do not want to be righteous in the first area, in the high sense of likeness of life. We are often even afraid to be righteous last we may not prosper in life or may have to suffer some cherished sin. If we wanted to lighten our areas as we want human love, we would honor power fame or wisdom, we would be rich in faith. Here our poverty would vanish and the world would be made happier by our heritage. The seeming indifference in things Jonah's Bun" the response by the rest of the party. We have this dance rhyme with the music. We are most grateful when ever the music is given. Heavy jump from him to him. Anpected Brier Riot to do akim or Riot to do leapn a k We want me to fall an k im By WILLIAM IBLEB Bandmaster, Headquarters of U. N. I. A. (W. G. is received) In doing comments past and present on the Negro and music, I observe that there has been a ten- tle in admirable and encouragas- s as much as possible and in varius of the songs of the days of slav- ery. We are not afford to overlook as important a matter which is of vital importance to the race therefore, I will throw some light on the subject which I hope will be of future guid- ance especially to those members of m race in this branch of science and art. It is an acknowledged fact that the Negro is an important cultural music. Music is one of his natural gifts. Music is his soul. So itself. Further comment here is unnecessary as we can follow the pages of history and even back to prehistoric periods. Then surrey our good friends, when writing about us can find other works of high art worth mentioning rather than the songs we used to sing while in slavery on the cotton plantations as though they were the highest musical attributions of the Negro. Not that I detect these songs (God forbid!) They were born out of the suffering souls of our formers. That we should forget them. No! I can hear those chants as they rose from their bruised and heaten bodies. That the melody of the work songs should be discarded. No! I can again hear the syncopated rhythms as they flow from the banjo. Yes it would get you a go-ahead. Under the swintering heat and burdensome toll it has kept their spirits alive. Yet there are many reasons why we should object to any attempt on the part of anyone to hold us to this standard, whether by encouraging the singing of these songs daily in our institutions or by having them thrust wholesale upon us in the form of jubilee eligera, etc. A careful analysis of these comments reveals to us that their causes are psychological and, comfort, what a relief! No more sleepy less night! No more scratching! You look hundred times better now! You feel a hundred times better now! You feel a hundred times better now! No more Easea, Ringworm or Tetra. Your skin becomes velvety clear and smooth. No more itching Dandruff. Your scalp shows a firm programm. Runt THE NEGRO and MUSIC ```markdown ``` spiritual today can be traced directly to our poor appetites for things spiritual. Most men think of things spiritual as related to things had through the door of death. They do not know that spirit is man and that man is spirit that it is his privilege to live after the manner of the spirit or to live after the manner of the flesh that in living after order of the spirit his greatest usefulness is evidenced and he proves a benefit to humanity, himself and God. We need a tonic to stimulate our appetites. I would prescribe the greatest builder of all the ages, the one sure specific, the Christ desire the Christ longing, the Christ urge for things that are right, just and honorable. As we drink daily of this tonic shall grow to that stature of womanhood and manhood which will command the respect of good men and God. 1. This want of appetite for right sequences is the course of mankind. The sweet blessings of Christ is for us in such small measure! A little crumb suffices us, we have no true hunger Grace has to be forced upon us and is then refused by many. To be filled—who desires this as starving men want food or thirst men seek water* To be filled—who longs and sighs for the moments of quiet, when self-splits away and the "Comfortor" steals in to shed His wonderful influence* To be filled—who wants his glory flooded his soul and driving away the many cares and worries of the day* To be filled—who would deny himself the peculiar joy of being filled unutterably full of his glory and power just for a season* None, saving those who are cursed because of their unwillingness to desire. Wanting spiritual desire, we lack spiritual manhood, lacking such manhood we fail from our best estate and wander outside of the spiritual Eden because we do not wish to return to its blessed life. Increase your desire for things spiritual and thereby enhance your being. Go forth and do TO HOPE O thou bright Star of Hope that shineth ever. That chaseth gloom that guide each brave endeavor. That giveth fainting souls new life and vigor. That comfort cheer sustain, revive inspire. Let blest beams upon my pathway linger. Resusitate my will my life end. Depril the gloom and doubt that I am stronger. May onward press with halting step no longer S. BANDOLPH MURRAY therefore I will treat them from the point of view First of all what is psychology Psychology is that branch of science which treats with the human soul and its operations. The practical possi- bilities of psychology are now, gener- ally conceived by psychologists in all branches of human endeavor. No problem today but has its psychological solution, be it financial, social or political. To statemen, business men and professional men alike, psychological solution is the final and hopeful appeal when all other explanations have failed. Musical psychology plays a great part in the life of the individ- ual of groups and of nations and that matter in the world of human affairs. Just pause and think for a moment of the hundreds of thousands of men and women engaged in this branch of art. Think of the opera houses, the theatres, the schoola academies and private institutions, the colleges, cafes and dance halls, the army and navy and all the various churches and then think of the mime- tions of dollars expended annually the upkeep of music and immediat will unfold to you the greatness of influence of music and this is but instance.

Wonderful lessons were taught by that silent parade ‘The first thing that occurred to me as T saw mes Ike Bagnall and James ‘Weiton Johneon—men who have a national reputation behind them—es I caw them walking the streets In that parade I thongbt of the insignificance of Importance.

And do you know these two things must go to- gether if we as a race expect to accom- piish anything. Those who are im- portant must ipso facto consider their insignificance and those who are un- tmportant—those who are insignif- cant must recogpize thelr importance, This Univgea!

(Applause) Utter Determination The next thought that ocourred to me was thie ' the utter determination—the utter determination on those allent faces as they marched. You know dur- ing the Spanish-American war, when the group under the leadership of Col- onel Roosevelt was marching on San Juan Hill, and the guns were leveled upon them, they were being mowed down like brute beaste—the command. ing officer eaid to the mon—because he aaw they were going Into the very jawa of hall—he said “To the rear”, but those men eaid “To hell with the rear,” and they marched on. And ! saw that determination on the tade of those men and women as they dared the weather. as they dared the rain, walking in the rain, refusing to be stopped by It, go- ing on, on in their allent, solid deter- mination to see to It that lynching shall atop. WIIl Not Btand for Injustices of White Men 1 say, that was enough conviction— if the white man bas any capacity for conviction, to know that we are not go- ing to permit him to trample upon us, to deride us and kill us and spill our blood forever. We will not stand for it The last thought that came to me as I saw the parade was this: Shall we whose ayes are lighted with wisdom, Shall we to men benighted the torch of Ute deny? Members of the Universal Negro Im- provement Association, do you know that we have a light, that the world is in need of.

U.N. 1. A. a Redical Organization Others are itberal, but ours is radical: \t takes things from the root, it goes to the bottom and to the foundation of thing. The world needs that light, for after this period of silent protest we are going to have our legion march out with thelr swords opon and ready to fight We are going to have them march out demanding that which all- ence will not get—that we must have It, that we demand it and they will see that by the sword and by the right arm the thing is done And we who are members of this organization, we who foster the legion, must see to it that foe : biisce 5a ae fe: arts baie as,\ fae ea Lo \ fs we dia Bee poe Gs ey ' oe bie Ga fa Ki Uy 7 See iN eat fee J i Was (an A uc ma CS es) Aeecead a0 Vag!

Executive Secretary, Havana Division, U N I. A., Revillagigodo, 88. Havana. Dear Friend and Brother. Knowing the intense interest that both officers and members of the Havana division have in me, I take great pleasure in informing you of my speedy recovery from the severe could I caught during my visits to the Guanabacona division. On arriving at Jatibonica I was requested to remain there until I was completely better, by orders of the president, Mr Philip Simon, the lady president, Mra. Anna Simon, and the treasurer, Mra. Sarah Milla, a of whom took an active part in the fighting the cold to the best of their ability Such loyalty and sincerity of purpose only help to cement my determination into a more concrete form, to continue the good fight for Negro solidarity and economic emancipation. Permit me to here thank you, the president and the general secretary for the unfinishing support you gave while visiting the Guanabaca and Ceiba de Mariana divisions, and I hope you will ever continue to visit and strengthen there. Give my best regards to all officers and members, tell them I ask that they continue to be faithful and loyal to the noble cause for Africa's freedom I hope you are all preparing to send a delegate to the Third International Convention, but in making your selection be sure you select and elect a man—a real man—whose interest in the Negro peoples of the world has been proven, and not a j: basekor or one who will stoop. The starling worth of the Havana division must be registered in this convention. You will hear from me again as to the exact date of my arrival in Havana. I am on my way to Oriente. Wishing you all a never-ending success, I remain. Yours fraternally for Negro progress (Signed) EDUARDO MORALES, High Commissioner to Cuba. Revillaggedo. 98, Havana, Republica de Cuba.

Dear Sir and Brother: Through the medium of The Negro World we are answering youre of the 8th inst. because we deem it the best means of getting in communication with one whose duties are of such a nature that he may be considered an itinerant ambassador. The good advice given this division by you is already bearing fruit. You may expect in the near future to read about our laundry and barber shop. It is for us to thank you for the spirit of enthusiasm you left here rather than for you to thank you for any little act of kindness we may have shown you. We do not hesitate in calling you great, for service is the measure of greatness, and we know of no one who is serving the cause of Africa with greater self-sacrifice than you. We are glad to know that you recovered from the bad cold you caught while laboring between Havana and Guanabana, and we sincerely hope that this may find you enjoying excellent health. We remain. Yours for Africa's cause. THE HAVANA DIVISION. Per William P Stout.

Then came a representative of the U. N. L. A., Inspector General of the Universal African Legions, Wilfred P. Brazil, being the only one to be seen with the tri-color flag of the Republic of Africa. Inspector Brazil was a decided curiously. Several white people went up to him and asked him what the red, black and green stood for. Diplomat that he is, Inspector Brazil's replies were inexplicably evasive. BAXLEY, GA.-The division of the U. H. I. A. here suffered the loss of its first president, C. H.

LINDSAY AGAIN STRESSES NEED OF BRAINS AT AUGUST CONVENTION Asks Division to Use Discrimination in Picking Delegates—Pertinent Questions Raised COMMISSIONER WEST ELEC- TRIFIES MONTE LIRIO DIVISION GORGEOUS RECEPTION WAITS PRESIDENT GENERAL AT LOS ANGELES LOS ANGELES. Cal.-Gorgeous preparations are being made for the reception of Hon. Marcus Garvey who is expected here early in June. William A. Corbin, Executive Secretary of the Division, has secured one of the largest halls in the city, and a monstrous parade is planned in honor of His Excellency LINDSAY AGAIN ST BRAINS AT AU Asks Division to Use Disc gates—Pertinent By A. N. LINDSAY In my previous letters I insisted that divisions while selecting representatives to our next international convention, should strive in obtaining such delegates possessing broad intelligence and practical knowledge pertaining to legislative affairs and above all common reasoning with foreseeing and scrutiny. Men who cannot be fed up with sentiments, thereby losing sight and substance of the real issue, are what we want. The coming convention should be the one determination that will securely lay the foundation for this great organization for all time. Remember nothing is secure where finance is uncertain and magegr. Hence the precaution for system and methods of assuring tangible progressive basis. Again if water is be poured through a sieve how can you hope to rot? If it matters not how much is poured in, economy and thrift with same methods must be applied. Let me again impress upon your minds that industry and commerce can only progress under the direction of such men ripe with previous knowledge and experience, amateurs experimenting can accomplish but ought to the disadvantage and expense of the unfortunate The greatest needs and chief demands of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this opportunity moment to successfully push the program over the hills of difficulties are such men who have already applied hands and brain and know what it takes one to pass through the mills for accomplishments. Then such must not necessarily be weaklings, yielding easily to dictates of one who knows nought on the matter, surrounding manhood, principle etc., merely to retain feelings of friendship to the detriment of purpose. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is advancing and is outgrowing small, narrow minds, and those who must necessarily cope on equal terms of the situation must be big men, stout in ambitions with steel hearts, and yield no grounds except to the popular will and opinion of the majority. There can be no superbrain with knowledge and ideas of everything, neither must there be any singular mandatory commands. The U N. I. A. while universal in scope and broad in principles and purpose, should stand out on the greatest and grandest planes of democracy. No narrowing methods of singular control—the popular vote of the council should be the ranking decision. Remember a tree cannot be bent or shaped after years or centuries of overgrowth. then the time is now and can be no filter time for setting the tree to grow right and in order. Cowards are not riled on in ways useful, because they fear offending, but much rather mutter up their sleeves what they have to say. There are to be COMMISSIONER WE TRIFIES MO By A. James McDonald Permit me space in your most valuable paper to give my impression of a meeting at the New Providence Division during the visit of the High Commissioner, Rev. Edgar C. West. At about 7.25 p. m. on the 19th inst. the Commissioner entered Liberty Hall while the members and visitors stood and sang the Ethiopian Anthem. At the close the anthem the president of the division, Mr, W. G. McCarty, called the meeting to order. The opening ode was sung and the anthem's ritual read by the Commissioner. The president then delivered a short but appropriate address, after which he called upon Mr. Fred Johnson, the chairman of the Trustee Board, to read a welcoming address to the Commissioner. That the address was appredicated child be seen in the fact that he (the Commissioner), accepted and promised to publish it in the Negro World. The program consisted of song_anthony THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1922 CAUTION TO DIVISIONS AND MEMEBERS OF THE U. N. L. A. Horon Division No. 574, Cuba. May 22, 1922.—Be careful who you entertain. There is a man posing as Prince Aqua, from Camaroon (Africa) of whom I made mention some time ago in a recent issue of the Negro World. We are not in authority to dispute his Princeship, but what we do know, is that his character is very questionable. The people of this community are always waiting to receive any comer with open and outstretched arms. This goody gentleman was received in like manner, but it wasn't many days before the warm corners in the store houses of reception were invaded by a snow storm of some of the poorest principles adopted by this "Prince," and can be therefore termed as a breach of privilia. Respectfully submitted by JOSEPH A. TODD. Executive Secretary TRESSES NEED OF AGUST CONVENTION crimination in Picking Dele- Questions Raised regarded as dangerous enemies in disguise. One of the Negro's weakness is, he cannot view things or persons from both angles. He is so unfortunate he can hardly discern the good and bad at the same time. The best he knows is spout out in glee today—wonderful grand' great! Tomorrow he condemn it as no good. Then why not get down to real business methods today, thereby advancing to greater perfection tomorrow. Negroes must cease being so hypocritical and be more conscientious. This is no time for conniving friendships or throwing faded bouquets. One's history lives after death, and deeds and actions are of greater value than empty babblings. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is not of man's doings or is it an organization of chance. It is the plan and will of God. It is the Lord's. Then may we not repeat with the Psalmist (Psalm 115), "Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy and for thy truth's sake." If Negroes are to escape a similar fate to that of the children of Israel wandering in the wilderness, then see that Moses adhere strictly to the commands of God, then to the wise councillors of the tribes. Negroes of the world, the call of the hour is men—and your best men. Men tried and found true as steel. Men who proved friendship for the race and cause. Men who bury selfish aggrandisement and harmful jealousies. It does seem so hard for Negroes to put in practice what they preach. In laying the foundations which the whole structure of the U N I A must imperatively rest, we need mon capable of ability with past experience, past knowledge (not favoritism) real service, such as John Mitchell of Richmond, Va. Such and such only can Marcus Garvey be aided in putting over so magnanimous a program, Negroes of the world, the command ye obey come shoulder your burdens and upward and onward along your way be doing.

The Commis- sor is a man of sterling quality His subject was divided into two parts due to the fact, he said, that he could not spend more than one night with us. "The Old and New Negro" was one part and "Honeyset of Purpose" the other. After a most magnificent demonstration on the subject, given in true Garveye fashion, the characteristics of the old and new Negro, he embellished it with the aims and objects of the U. N. L. A. Indeed, the reverend gentleman's dissertation was one of high quality, and like a true Garveye he sometimes gives us some of Mr. Garvey's gestures which were very pleasing and effective. At the close of his address the lady president, Mrs. Boye, rendered a solo in good style, after which the Commissioner said he was instructed by the parent body to change the charter number from No. 1 to No. 18. The change was made on imperial by the membership. --- THOUSANDS ATTEND UNVEILING OF CHARTER AT CAYO MAMBI, CUBA Cubans Swiftly Falling Into Ranks of Garveyism Whole Isle Throbs with Spirit of Negro Freedom BY BDNEY A WILBON CAYO MAMBI, Cuba, April 16. For the unveiling of the charter of the Cayo Mambi division of the U N I A and A. C L no day was more fitting than Easter Sunday, April 16, 1922. At 4 p.m. the crowd which had gathered before the eastern door of the large Liberty Hall started on the march to the measure of the processional hymn 'Onward Christian Holders' led by a band of music. It was beautiful to behold this mass of moving humanity on the principal streets of the vicinity in the soft light of a setting sun. The president called for a halt at the cuartel (soldiers' barracks) In military style he gave the order to face the building, and it was obeyed. The government soldiers lined up and stood at attention while the Cuban national anthem was played and saluted. This action was repeated at the singing of the Ethiopian hymn. President Bennett's people, or rather, Captain Bennett's army, bowed as a token of respect, and with a right turn was on the return march. The crowd came back. It circled before the building and then entered the apsa hall. Seats were now at a premium, standing space was no more and there were more persons outside than in the building. On the platform were R A Bennett president, C M Edwards first vicepresident, Mrs C E Prince, lady president, Mrs Lucina Phillips, first lady vice-president, T N Campbell executive secretary, B O Dallon, general secretary, W G Nelson treasurer E L Oabourne, chairman Advisory Board, E Wobley, ex-president of the Macane branch The hands of the clock pointed to five when the president declared the meeting open. Speech followed speech in quick succession punctuated by recitations, solos and anthems. The choir was par excellence. A debt of gratitude is due Mrs Prince for its careful training. The trio entitled Jerusalem, My Golden Home," sung by Mr E Henlon, was so appreciated that the roof quivered because of the thunderous applause which rent the air. The decorations were superb Flags and buntings were everywhere displayed, ferns, palm leaves and other overgreens bedecked the walls, and at nightfall the newly installed electric lights lent enchantment to the scene. The president explained the purpose of the meeting and expressed the hope that the event would prove memorable. He then introduced Mr. F Webley, former president of the Macane division, as the master of ceremonies, and referred to him as an able and capable man worthy of the position he was to fill. Mr Webley on taking the chair said Mr. President Executive Officers Members and Friends of This Division. I am glad to be here because I breathe the spirit of the U N L A and A C L L We meet with a twofold purpose—to commemorate Our Lord a resurrection and to unveil your charter. This then is a red-letter day in the history of Cayo Mambi. The charter is a declaration of the rights of the people who are asking for something. I shall not deal fully with the charter, but confine my remarks to the resurrection of Christ. Christ came to establish a universal brotherhood. For years we wore under an amount of serfdom and peonage, and now the Negro is demanding his rights. We can already see the Negro bridging the gulf of prejudice, and they are soaring I think I see the flag, with the colors red, black and green floating in the breezes on the billiops of Afri a (Cheers) Mr W Francis, among the many forceful remarks he made said he had such a lengthy speech that would close the evening, but he would be brief. He commented on the decorations and in brilliant style outlined the aims and objects of the U N L A and strongly appealed for new members. Mr R. Patrickson wished the audience a happy Easter. The season had a special significance to him, he said as that was the time he openly acknowledged Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Saviour. He told of the influences which drew him to the U N I A. how he quickly became a member of the Neuvitts division and a shareholder in the Black Star Line. "I am a little man," he said but a hardy one and I shall do all I can towards the redemption of Africa. Mr George Tulloch spoke on two words of the association's name. He chose "Negro" and improvement. He brought out many interesting points which proved the Negroes are improving. The choir gave an exquisite rendition of an anthem while the offering was being taken. Now to be performed was the most alluring part of the program. There was a solemn hush as little Miss Mavis Pottinger walked up the rostrum and took her stand on the right of the veiled charter. She was thankful for the honor conferred on her to perform so pleasant a duty. She hipped herafter to be better able to support the cause of Africa's redemption and work untimely for our Motherland. The congregation arose; Miss Pottinger slowly pulled the screen, the charter was revealed, and hearts, voices and musical instruments made the notes of the Ethiopian anthem float upon the air. Clearly and distinctly did the acting chaplain read the words of the charter and the dedication prayer was offered by the president The congregation listened to the electrifying speech of President Bennett. Pointing to a flag which he designed after the pattern of that of the Cuban and with the colors of the U N I A red, black and green—he asked. Soon that flag* it appeals to our race. The black star represents the Black Star Line whose boats we have seen. The red represents our grievances and the green suggests the grass over which our Savior died*. The speaker was proud of the efforts of his people, who were striving after the true liberation of their race. He hoped they fully realized the meaning of the charter. They were to think seriously of the plodge they had made. They could understand what the Magna Charia meant to the English people, so also must the unwilling of the charter bring satisfaction to the people of Cayo Mambi. The Negro was fighting for liberty. We read of America's Washington and England a Cromwell and a Roland Taylor. As others have done, so might we cultivate race pride and making for ourselves a place in the sun. The meeting closed in the accustomed way and the delighted people dispersed to return at 7.30 p.m Big Mass Meeting Liberty Hall became more crowded at night with an assembly of people with increasing enthusiasm. The preliminaries were carried through by the acting chaplain and the chairman Mr. Webley made his openic address. Lack of space prevents a full report of his intensely interesting speech. The outstanding remarks were. We have realized ourselves to be Negroes. It was difficult to think that Negroes could unite. But today it is recognized that what man has done man may do irrespective of his shade or complexion. Though we are not slaves and peons as our forefathers, we yet we are living a sort of semi-slavish life. Jesus died to set us free and He is not going to see us perish. The Red Sea is before us and it must be crossed forward, therefore with your God-given guidance. Mr Charles Osborne recited Tom Robbins. We Are Matching to Conquer the Future" with alterations, which made the poem appropriate. That Mr Osborne will be the next general secretary, as a prophesy which time will prove true. Mr F Simms call for true blooded Negroes to follow the standard of the Hon Marcus Garvey was very effective. With strong imagination the speaker put uniquely described a set element of new Negroes in a more modern Montreal. Mr Samuus urged greater determination to put the program of the N.I.A. over. The white man was coming a lot for the Negroes and it was time he did something for himself. The speech of H. O. Dalton was in a minor key. It was full of pathos and the listeners were deeply touched by the parting words which fled from his lips. Announcing his early departure to his native land Jamaica he began his encouraging speech. He took a back glance at the road covered by the division, saw that there was rapid improvement which foretold Caye Mam- THE GREATEST BOOK EVE On the Negro by a THE GREATEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN THE NEGRO WORLD Says of it It is a masterpiece of sociological handling science, science and history bringing up to the many interesting suppressed facts about the race begining to end.

He referred to his work as general secretary "T." he said, "he an officer always tried o d my best and now that I am leaving, my whole thoughts is with the division." He said he would personally correspond with his friends, and read the Negro World for happly there might be news of Cayo Mambal. He pressed the necessity to hold on faithfully. He intended to get hitched on to the nearest U N I A. branch to his home and tell its members of Cayo Mambal progressive people. Mr Dalton, unassuming and cool-headed, is much beloved by all who know him. This explains the visible sign of regret on the faces of those around him. There was loud cheering as President R. A. Bennett rose to speak. "We have met," he began, "on a day which reminds me of a period when humanity gained pre-eminence or the satanic power of hell through the sacrifice and recuperation of a divine individual Under such circumstances we rejoice over the resurrection of a risen Lord." He laid stress on racial pride. A summary fails to convey to readers the force logic grandeur and effect of his speech. He encouraged self-respect "This thing is no joke. Respect yourselves and you'll command respect." He readily drew many illustrations from history both sacred and secular. He pointed out the necessity of carefully training the young, and like a harm mer his words drove home the truth to the hearts of his hearers. No wonder there was rapt attention throughout until the speaker sat down, loud and vociferous applause and cheers. Mr Prince Henry declared that the harmonious singing of the choir had cast a spell over him. He tried to induce ordinary members of the association to be active members, and to the latter his plaintive voice rang out. Are you going to keep up the U N I A and A C L L? The affirmative reply ran through the building like a ripple over a stream. Mr T N Campbell executive secretary and acting chaplain in well-chosen words intimated a concert and a dance in Liberty Hall on the night of the morrow under the auspices of the Cayo Mambis U N I A. Mr Charles Osbourne took "Democracy" for his subject. He quickly took a retrospective view of the 300 years Negroes were in slavery, dealt with the advent of the Garvey idea of a universal association told what is expected of a loyal member, and gave assurance of its ultimate success. Mr W Francis, a young and bold speaker—a galvanic battery when on his legs—made his farewell speech. He should have left two weeks before the unveiling of the charter, but had extended his stay to take a share in the ceremony. He linked his thoughts around the words—Go Forward. He mentioned instances of perseverance and said the necessity for Negroes to be greater than before. He closed in eloquistic terms of the president Concert on Monday Night Mr G M Edwards first vice-president always practical and far-seeing possessing great breadth of knowledge and unusual good judgment knew that a concert and a dance would be good stimulants after the festivities of the preceding day.

The bar kept a busy bunch of sellers and a large profit was shown This report would be incomplete were there no mention of such names as Mr. R. A Moody who worked unsparingly in the complete renovation of the building. When the chairman openly spoke of his unattested service, Mr. Moody, in all his modesty expressed the wish that his name could have been omitted. Mrs. Lucia Phillips worked strenuously throughout. She made the banners and buntings. Mr. R. A. Love S. O. Dallon M Baker and M Scholob sacrificed much time for the sake of the division's preparations. Well done Cave Mambit! Press on. And may the love which binds all hearts as one to be like Tennyson's Brook. Men may come and men may go. But it gives on forever. Prayer Comonly Called "The Lord's Prayer" Or the prayer that Jesus taught His disciples when they requested that He should teach them to pray as John taught his disciples. Translated in substance and spirit from the original Greek for the Universal Bible class by A Manson. O Father Eternal source of life, who dweltest in the highest realms of wisdom and love, let us mention Thy Name at all times with reverence and obedience and with a full consciousness of its sacred significance to us. Establish Thy promised kingdom when all men nations and people shall serve the cause of Justice, love and mercy only, and when compassion like that of a tender mother for her offspring shall rule in men's hearts. Regenerate us that through love and unity Thy power be made manifest through the now poor, desplaced and down-trodden, even as it is through those of high estate. The bread of life the teachings to strengthen us on our journey towards eternal happiness send us in each day and generation through Thy prophets. And abide in us that we show kindness merely and forgiveness always to our erring few man knowing that it is the only condition by which we can obtain mercy and forgiveness for our own errors. And lead us that we be not tempted to stray into the paths of selfishness and other cells. For Thine is the only real abiding kingdom. This is the only real authority and power Thine is the only real glory and honor that lasts unendingly for ever. Truth is no. IF U DON'T C CONSULT DR.

JUNE 10. 1922 Como noticia fausta para todo el conteo debe recibir la nueva de haber hallado las delegaciones de Chile y el Peru congregadas en Washington, base firme para entablar la discussion del problema del Pacifico. A continuación de una aerie de conferencias y cambio de notas entre las dos misiones sudamericanas, parece encontrado el terreno en qué tratar. Ello significa que, trayendo el problema abstracto a bases de estricta realidad práctica, ha sido ya hallado el punto de contacto en qué establecer una relación fructuosa de país a país, y de cancilleria a cancilleria, en el intercambio de ideas que puede y debe conducer a la inteligencia final. Nuestra Raza se Halla Actualmente Sometida a Una Prueba Suprema en la Competencia Universal Establecida—Afrontnamos la Seriedad de un Programa Economico-Politico—Ninguna Raza ó Nación Presta su Confinanza en la Otrn—El Negro Tiene Que Depender de Si Mismo Para su Propia Salvación Nuestra raza ha de verse sometida pronto, muy pronto, a una de las pruebas supremas de la vida. Nos afrontamos actualmente con los problemas humanos de economía política mas serios de todas las edades. Notamos que la humanidad en todas partes se afana por adquirir la completa libertad en ese sentido. En este afan humano nos vemos afrontados con la rivalidad de los ingenios mas agudos de la época; cada raza y cada nación trata de presentar al mundo la mejor producción. Tanto se espera de cada uno de los distintos rivales, que se hace imposible el llegar a un acuerdo amigable para el establecimiento de una confraternidad universal. Mientras chilenos y peruanos irrevocablemente aferraranse a no abandonar el criterio cerrado establecido años hace y bajo el calor de la contienda aun reciente, era imposible toda tentativa satisfactoria de solución. La insistencia mapelable en una interpretación determinada de las clausulas del tratado de Ancón que cada nacimiento entienda opuestamente, constituya un valladar insalable que por años obstruyó toda tendencia a más cordiales aceramientos. El ambiente creado por todos, en un esfuerzo loailismo, en torno a la reunión de Washington, parece haber producido ya sus efectos. Y en esa via, el primer éxito no puede sino conducir a subsiguientes trunfos y culminar en un completo acuerdo chileno-peruano que América entera celebrara como propio. Puede notarse clara y detenidamente que ninguna raza o nación presta su confianza en la otra. Existe actualmente una desconfianza universal basada principalmente en la conducta de los directores y representantes de cada raza y de cada nación. Esta desconfianza ha limitado el propósito del pacto de la cuadruple alianza en la ciudad de Washington; ha sido la causa del fracaso de la conferencia en la ciudad de Genova; será la quc destruira finalmente muchas de las naciones e imperios del presente, arrojando por consiguiente, en la oscuridad, a muchas de las razas predominantes. Los delegados anuncian la decisión de dar a la publicidad actas y notas oficiales de los cambios de ideas ya celebrados. Este será un importantismo paso para completar las posibilidades todas del acuerdo diplomatico y la sancion popular en los dos países, Chile y el Peru necesitan urgentemente una considerable y sagaz masa de información sobre el proceso y desarrollo gradual de la conferencia, que permita a la opinion pubica evolucional par que sus representantes en Washington y asimilar y sentir las realidades que impongan, aconsejen o sugeran cada concesión encamina cada cerrar el acuerdo. Sin esa compenetración efectiva, palpitante, de dia a dia, entre los pobles y sus delegados en la conferencia, pueden producirse soluciones de continuad muy peligrosas entre la atmosfera que se respire en la capital de la Union norteamericana y la que se produca en centros políticos y se produca de Chile y el Peru. Y seria lamentable que lo que firmaran los plenpotenciones en Washington, requiriera ficiones oficiales por no hablar de imposiciones de la fuerza para ser respetado y aclamado por el pueblo. Nos corresponde el tomar parte en los asuntos de la humanidad, como un ramal de esta y debemos ejecutarlo a conciencia. En la espansión de esta sospecha universal, causa de que una nación desconfie de la otra, tenemos también nuestra sospecha y desconfianza las cuales nos imposibilitan para creer en la honestidad de los demas. Llega la hora en que el Negro tiene que exclusivamente depender en sí mismo para su propia salvación. Si el Negro quiere mejorar su situación individual, racial ó nacional, tiene que obtener ésta por medio de su propio esfuerzo. Esto indicará trabajo y mas trabajo. Si esta mejora afecta solamente al individuo, éste tendrá que proporcionarse, si afecta a la raza, éste tendrá que trabajar en cooperación; si afecta a la nación, entonces sus ciudadanos tendrán que aportar en beneficio del bien común. Como ya escribimos en anterior editorial, es de primera necesidad la "puerta abierta", en una extensión razonable, en esta conferencia del Pacífico. El acuerdo de los delegados viene a anunclar un cambio decisivo en el proceso hasta ahora desarrollado. No ha de tardar en percibir la conveniencia del camino. Las discussions que la publicidad levante en Chile y el Peru serán le mejor guna y seguridad de los delegados. Y el ambiente de cordialidad que se ha hecho entre chilenos y peruanos en Washington, seguramente no ha de correr el más leve peligro, por causa de las auras de opinión popular que llegue de Sud América. Los pueblos, mas que nadie, están interesados en la immediata, definitiva y satisfactoria solución del problema de Tacna y Arica. En ese sentimiento no hay fección alguna —La Prensa, N Y. Los que formamos parte de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra tenemos ante nuestra vista la visión de un imperio; no imperio concedido, sino un gran imperio conquistado por medio de nuestras energías, por medio de nuestra labor, por medio de nuestros sacrificios. Nuestro imperio ha de ser tanto económico como político; tendrá por base el establecimiento de nuestras propias industrias aquí, allá y mas allá, dando ocupación a los millones de nuestras propia raza, quienes por centenares de años han dependido de la benignidad de las otras razas para su subsistencia. En lo que respecta a lo político, nuestro imperio ha de constituirse en una nación respetada por las demas naciones del mundo. Nuestra raza necesita de la cooperación de sus capitanes de industria, quienes han de trazar los planes para nuestra fundación industrial; nuestra raza necesita de sus estadistas, en cuyas manos se ha de colocar nuestro futuro. ¿Por Que No Reconocer a Mejico? Hoy mas que nunca nuestra raza necesita un William Pitt; hoy mas que nunca nuestra raza necesita un Bismarck; un Garibaldi; pero sobretodo, hoy mas que nunca nuestra raza tiene la gran necesidad de un Napoleon. El hecho de que hayamos dependido de las demas razas por siglos y siglos nos ha traidos por resultado esclavitud y servidumbre y esclavos y sirvientes hemos de ser, hasta que nos decidamos hacer uso de nuestra propia iniciativa, constituyendo nuestra propia fundación económica y política. Fuera de su nombre, que tiene valor para ios simpatizadores de la revolución, hay muy poco en Félix Diaz para presentarlo como posible sucesor al presidente Obregon de Méjico, y nada para sugerir que sea preferible a fête. La rebelion es su profesión, la situación tienta a hombres de este tipo para buscar el apoyo de los que tratan de utilizar el desorden. Las ultimas informaciones de un levantamiento felixista en destinadas al alcecer para separar la atención de la visita del secretario de hacienda de la Huerta a los Estados Unidos en una mission importante. Si el Negro desea subsistir tiene proporcionarse un sitio en el universo. Este sitio no le ha de ser cedido expontanea 6 caritativamente; tal puesto tendrá que obtenerlo por medio del poder que obliga a los demas a devolver aquello que ligitimamente nos pertenece. La situación continuará siendo favorable para los conspiradores y se reproducirán los desórdenes hasta que los Estados Unidos reconozan a Obregón. Por qué no hacerlo ahora? Por qué no ayudar a Méjico, reconociéndolo, para que solucione su difícile problema? Obregón se halla en el poder y no hay ningún hombre más fuerte a la vista. El gabado fueon reiteradas sus intenciones de aceptar todas las obligaciones morales. El secretario de hacienda de la Huerta se ha aquí al para transcribir estos principios en arreglos detallados. No debiera hacer que volviera a la país con las manos vacas. El poder ha sido el factor necesario todas las épocas. A menos que el individuo, la raza o la nación tenga poder exclusivo, este individuo, esta raza o esta nación estará subyugada a aquellos que posean esta gran cualidad. Fué el poder industrial y científico de la raza teutónica el que le proporciónó la dictadura de la política europea; fué el poder militar, naval y político el que elevó a Gran Bretaña a una supremacia universal. El poder es el único objeto que satisface el hombre. Posesionando este factor, su semejante le respetará. Por tal razón es aconsejable que el Negro se posesione de este, en un sentido general; poder en educación, poder en ciencia, poder en industria, poder en política, poder en gobierno. Méjico adoptó esenta y cínco afios hace una constitución que fue alabada por los liberales del mundo entero. La constitución de 1917 es atacada como enamina de for-de- recho de la propriedad privada Méjico, principalmente, "ataca a la propiedad" tratando de dividir las grandes propriedades entre los cam- pesinos. Francia lo hizo, Lloyd George nos lo recuerda y ello la hizo prosperar maravillosamente. La Gran Bretiafa exproprió y dividió las grandes propiedades de Irdanla y hasta antes de que intervinieran las dificultades políticas, Irdanla fué próspera. La política que hizo a Francia economica, fuerte y estable, puede hacer de Méjico un vecino mejor y un mercado más halagüefo. De cualquier modo es su politica. Ha sido la política de os re- formadores mejicanos desde hace cien años no es probable que que ser modificada, por lo que respea a la psicología del pucblo mejicano, por cualquiera demora que se haga en provecho de concesionarios americanos.—N. Y World. Obtaculizando In Independencia de Las Islas Filipinas Según los empleados del gobierno el argumento basado sobre el tratamiento cuadruple del Pacífico que empleara la misión filipina para reclamar la independencia de las islas Filipinas, sera contraproduce. Las instrucciones dadas a la delegación por la legislatura filipina, son que haga significar al presidente Harding y al congreso que este tratado remueve el mayor obstruculo para la independencia de las Filipinas, es decir, la necesidad de proveer garantias de que se se concede la independencia de las islas esta ser援ada por otras potencias. Desde que el tratado cuadruple sobre el Pacífico obliga al Japon a resgatar la integración de las posiciones insulares de las potencias participantes, no hay hazon para temer por más tiempo que el Japon se enguya las Filipinas desde el momento en que los Estados Unidos abandonen su protección. Se debe principalmente a este razonamiento el que los jefes filipinos se decidiran a pedir la absoluta, completa e immediata independencia. Cuando se supo el plan de campaña filipino, el gobierno estaba como contrariado. A primera vista parecia que no habia respuesta al argumento. No obstante, un experto del departamento de estado contrarrestro el argumento de los filipinos diciendo que desde el momento en que a los filipinos se les concediera la independencia, sus islas cesan de ser poseiones insulares de los Estados Unidos y, por lo tanto, no quedan comprendidas en la esfera del tratado cuadruple. El peligro para cualquier gobierno independiente filipino, sin embargo no proviene entaramente del exterior, según los empleados del departamento de estado. Se hace hincapie en que abundan los capitanes de varias tribus que desean contrar con la población de las islas. Estos declaran que nunca se someteran a ser gobernados por los dirigentes de Manila, mitad espafioles, mitad filipinos. Créase que inmediatamente después de la independencia de las islas, sobrevendría una guerra santa entre los nativos mahometanos, lo cual eventually vendría a ser parte del denominado movimiento panislámico, que repercutiría en Java, Sumatra y aun in la India La Estatua de un Patriota Puertorriqueño Los señores D Guillermo Shuck, licenciado Domingo Sepulveda y licenciado Luis Yordan Dávila, han recogido de la aduana los 40 bultos que contienen el magnifico pedestal sobre el cual ha de irigarse la herm- estatua de bronce de Muñoz Rivera, desde hace tiempo en poder del ejecutivo Los comisionados son miembros del comité que dirige los preparat- vos de la erección del monumento en aquella ciudad y que tendrá lugar el próximo 15 de Noviembre Dicho pedestal es todo de marmol, artísticamente labrado por el repu- tado escultor catañón Narciso Gosch Boix, bajo la catañón de Alfredo Weicherg, arquitecto residente en Barcelona, España. Debido a la valiosa ayuda del conocido financista española don Manuel Gonzalez, de Salinas, la compañía de vapores de los sefiores Pinillos ha hecho gratis el transporte de la estatua hasta el puerto de San Juan y con la misma cooperación el tren que lo conducira a Ponce no cobrará la traslación. Muñoz Rivera es uno de los hijos ilustres de Puerto Rico. El Emprestito a la República de Liberia El comité de finanzas del senado informó favorablemente la resolución en que se provee por un empréstio de $5,000,000 al gobierno de Liberia. El presidente republicano McCumber, de North Dakota, fue quien informó al senado y anunció que sería puesto en consideración para su probación en la primera oportunidad.

(Firmado) HERIERTA DUANY. Secretaria de la División. El 19 del pasado de Abril giró una visita a esta villa en viaje de propaganda el culto e inteligente Alto Comisionado Hono. Eduardo V Morales, celebrandose una reunión en la morada de la respetable Sra Alejandrina Dominguez, a la cual asistió una gran concurrencia, con el deseo de conocer los fines de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. El Hon Comisionado después de referirse al propósito de nuestra organización, manifesto la necesidad de la consolidación de los cuotrocentos millones de Negros del mundo para la construcción del Gran Edificio, una república de, por y para nuestra raza. Los concurrenques quedaron altamente satisfechos, mostrando adherencia a la actitud de la Oficina Central de la Asociación en la ciudad de Nueva York. El Hon Comisionado pidió a la Secretaria que leyera el reglamento por medio del cual ha de regirse esta División. Entre el sinnumero de damas concurrentes recordamos mencionar la batalladora incansable de nuestra organización, la entusiasta Cuca Sarnier, Leonor Dominguez, Tertulina Pascual, Marina y Eliga Ybafé, Consuelo Duany y las niñas Graciela Aponte, Modesta Aponte, Olguita Pascual, Efigena Lapeira y Magdalena y Alicia Rodriguez. La reunión quedo terminada después de entrada la media noche, cantandose el himno nacional de Cuba y el de Etiopia. No Habra Licenciamiento General en Cuba El secretario de gobierno, señor Francisco Martinez Lufriu, ha manifestado a la prensa de esta ciudad que hiciera constar era de todo punto falsas las noticias que con insistencia se estaban haciendo circular en los centros militares, especialmente que el gobierno iba a licenir a las clases de dicho cuerpo por centenares, pues el señor presidente de la república, el y el jefe del estado mayor del ejército habían acordado que a medida que fueran vacando dichas plazas se irian amortizando, pero nunca hacer licencia-mientos a granel. Según el secretario, es campaña obedeca a elementos interesados. El Reconocimiento Del Presidente Obregon Las dificultades ténicas que se interponen en la senda del tratado de amistad y comercio relacionado con el reconocimiento del general Obregón, han sido eliminadas. Admitíose este en los circulos oficiales, donde no se negó el envio de una nueva nota a Méjico. La nota despathada a Mr. George Summermil, encargado de negocios de los Estados Unidos en la capital mejicana, se dijo que tenia por objeto remover los últimos obstáculos para el reconocimiento. Tidiene entendido que la comunicación contiene observaciones pertinentes que han de hacerse al sifor Alberto Pani, ministro de Relaciones Exteriores de la vecina república, sobre el proyecto tratado que se está negociendo actualmente entre dicho caballo y Summerlin. Quienes observan la situación de cerca, abrigan la esperanza de que las nuevas instrucciones enviadas a Mr Summerlin, eliminar las ultimas objeciones ténicas a la firma de las garantias sobre los derechos de propiedad americanos en Méljico, que se concentran en el artículo 27 de la constitución mejicana. Dlen tenor de la nota parece que estas objeciones ténicas es lo único que se interpone para llevar a feliz término las negociaciones del tratado. Caprichos de la Naturaleza Falta de ojos para ver y cidos para oir, Willet Huggins, de 17 afilos de edad, alumna de la escuela de Wisconsin para clegos, en janesville, puede oir y por medio de su nariz y las yemas de sus dedos. Ella demostro su poderes, que son casi sobrenaturales, ante una audiencia de quinientos médicos que asistían a una reunión de la Sociedad Médica de Chicago. Colocando su mano en la muleca, pecho o cabeza de otra persona, Miss Huggins puede repetir exactamente lo que esta dice y sostiene una conversación, en forma intellegente. Una vez que ha "oldo" una vpa por medio de sus dedos, el miembre de la vpa queda grahado para siempre en la memoria de la jovem Colocando sus dedos sobre el audiófono de un telelfono, Miss Huggins puede conversar telofinicamente. Las yemas de sus dedos la sirven de ojos y con ella le los encabezan. dos de los periódicos. Peasando en nariz sobre una fotografía, pende a clencia clerta, decir el número de personas que aparecen en la plama. Hino la prensa con un retrato de dos hombres y una mujer y no solo dijo que se trataba de un grupo de tres personas, sino que especified su sexo. Los médicos dijeron que los dones físicos de la muchacha son realmente prodigiosos. El Sufragio Femenino en el Senado de Cuba El Heraldo de Cuba ha iniciado una campafla con motivo de haberse suscitado en el Senado una discusión sobre si se concedía o no el derecho del sufragio a la mujer cubana. Distinguidas personalidades han respondido a la prensa pública. Reproduciimos a continuación varios párrafos de las manifestaciones del Dr Fernando Ortiz, en los cuales dice Que voten las mujeres si ellas quieren y que gobiernen. Peor que los hombres no habrían de hacerlo. Pero en mi fuero interno me parece triste que cuando la patria esta atravesando sus días más dificiles, nos entretengamos en discusiones congressionales de caracter poco menos que academicas sobre problemas que en nada apreman, sobre artículos constitucionales, que en nada han de influir en nuestro porvenir nacional. Es el caso histórico de los bizantinos que discutían los sutilezas de los dogmas cuando los turcos estaban a sus puertas. Y los turcos entraron. Máximun de Prisión Para Dos Infractores Con el deseo de aterrorizar a los criminales, el juez Rosa洛萨 de esta ciudad sentencio a los apaches Eugene Diaset y Maise Bagnoli, quienes tomar parte en el robo sensacional de que fue victima el millonario Albert R. Shattuck en su residencia de la plaza de Washington, a cumplir una condena de seenta afios de trabajo forzado. Los asaltantes encerraron a los esposos Shattuck y su servidumbre en el sotano de la casa para poder operar sin dificultad. Debido a la actividad del Sr. Shattuck, quien se valió de una moneda de diez centavos y un cortapulma para quitar la cerradura de la puerta, pudieron ellos salir de su encierro. Diaset y Bagnoli prestaron servicios en la última guerra mundial. Su sentencia puede considerarse como una condena a cadena perpetua.

WEST INDIAN NEWS NOTES [Under this heading THE NEGRO WORLD will give a regular weekly summary of the leading and significant happenings in the various West Indian islands. The size of the section will vary from week to week with the amount of news we are able to get from the newspapers, handbills, proclamations and letters that may be sent to us. The editor of this section is responsible for the final form of the news items printed here—except when he expressly quotes other papers. Please send all available papers of recent dates, as well as letters and other documents, to THE NEGRO WORLD, 56 West 135th Street, New York City.] BARBADOS Sir Charles O'Brien's Regime It would seem to be the general opinion that Sir Charles O'Brien when left Barbados on Tuesday on four months leave, was really bidding a final farewell to Barbados. And everybody has been busy summing up the result of his four-year governorship of the island and assessing him generally. We are not at all in favor of the general practice of forming conclusions by looking at the state of a colony's finances at the beginning and at the end of a given period without also taking into account all the varying circumstances that may have contributed to bring about the changes. For instance, suppose Sir Charles O'Brien does retire and a new man within a few months is sent here. He finds the colony greatly in debt. But a wave of prosperity is in reflected here in a large increase in the remittances from overseas. Barbados which remittance always form a very appreciable percentage of the income of the colony, then an oil find of unexpectedly large proportions further contributes, along with the usual industry of the population, to the good fortunes of the country. The Governor might easily at the end of a few years be able to paint a very roary picture. But after all he would have had nothing to do with it. On these grounds Sir Charles O'Brien cannot be blamed solely because he leaves the colony worse off than he found it. He can much more justly be blamed because he did not display any of the initiative or independence of spirit that might reasonably be expected from a Governor. It is claimed that under our constitution Mr. Lloyd George himself would be unable to bring into effect a law on which he had set his hearts if the House of Assembly were against it. But after all when we consider that in many cases, although a majority of the House of Assembly might have been in open arms against the Governor, the whole island outside was behind him, it would not have been difficult for an intelligent and energetic man to have won out. When the Governor is told an allusion to some members of the House of Assembly are fond of saying, that "We are masters in our own house," he is only being told half a truth. And nobody knows that better than a governor, who he may happen to be. But the dollar for mansion condition is much too attractive to a middle-aged man in these tropic climates. Hence, the trouble. It is much easier and pleasanter for a head of the government to apply a salvo to his conscience by pointing out to his advisers the iniquity of some proposed action of theirs and then leave the responsibility for the wrongdoing on them, because after all "they are masters in their own house." ```markdown ``` Such in our opinion is the true measure of Sir Charles O'Brien's failure to come up to expectations. About his goodness of heart, his desire to hold the balance evenly, and to deal out British justice we have no doubt. As to his firmness of purpose, his knowledge of tactics, his ability to manage men and to put his opponents in the wrong before the proper authorities when they are wrong, we have considerable doubt. He has had his chance in difficult times, we confess, but a clever workman would have had something more to show for his labor. FISH GUIANA The sugar producers of Demaraca the moving busy in the direction of obtaining a loan to tide over their present difficulties, the repayment of which is to be guaranteed by that government. The following is a text of a resolution which will shortly be introduced into the Legislative Council of that colony: Do it resolved, What this court hereby authorizes the Governor for and on behalf of the colony to guarantee repayment of advances to the proprietors and representatives of sugar estates on the following terms and conditions: First—The amount to be guaranteed in respect to each sugar estate shall not exceed ten dollars for each ten of sugar manufactured by such estate during the period of 18 months from March 1, 1922. Second—The guarantee to b in respect of advances made by either the Colonial Bank or by the Royal Bank of Canada or by any person or firm approved by the Governor. Third—Advances made as above to be repaid to the bank, the person or firm making the same within three years from the date of such advance or the first installment thereof. Fourth—Where the amount advanced or any part thereof remains unpaid after the expiration of the period of three years as afforestation, the government shall be liable to pay the same to the bank person or firm making such advance, and such amount with interest shall be paid to the government by the proprietor of the estate within seven years of the expiration of the half period of three years, in such installments and so such times to the Governor may present.

DOMINICA PLANT CANES AND PLANT AT ONCE We publish in another column the advertisement of the Dominica Agricultural Society, calling on peasant proprietor to plant canes and to begin planting them at once, in view of the fact that legislation will be shortly introduced by which locally made rum will be given a fair chance of competing against imported rum in the local market. As matters stand at present, our rum is hopelessly beaten in the market, and distillers cannot produce an article which can compete in price with rum imported from Barbados or Demerara. For this varieg causes contribute. Dominica is not a DE BOURG PUTS S MACORIS DIV. A Secretary James M. Halle Tyranny of Po By "REPORTER" SAN PEDRO DE MACORIS, R. do. S. D.-Amid great opposition and overwhalming difficulties His Excellency the Hon. John Sydney de Bourg, has thrown down the barrier and proclaimed himself indeed a champion of the Negro race. Through his untiring efforts and great sacrifice Division No. 26, of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Committee League, again tears its head in trilumph. We were taunted on all sides, enemies of the noble cause laughed us to scorn, declaring that the Universal Negro improvement Association would never again work in San Pedro de Macoris. That our hall would remain a Negro statue to be seen but never entered. But in accord with our prayer, "Not by might nor by power, but by my spirit saith the Lord of Hoste." "The God of right did our battles fight," and today we may easily say, "Jehovah has triumphed, his people are free." On March 31, a letter from the Military Governor to His Excellency announced the release of our general secretary, Brother James M. Halley, after spending six months and 19 days in the public prison here. On the 32nd His Excellency held an interview with Colonial Lyman and his official staff on the "Status of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League," whereupon they immediately gave permission to hold a meeting to draw the members together to explain the object of said interview. Invitations were then issued to the military authorities to attend said meeting, which was held on March 26. Colonal Moses, Secretary of Interior and Police, responded in place of the District Commander. His Excellency took for his subject, "Can Any Human Power Destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League," spoke for nearly forty-five minutes, proving God's hand in the movement. Colonal Moses made some brief remarks among other things saying, that he agreed with the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, as he believed in equal rights for all men. He then invited His Excellency to call on him the next day for a further conference, which I have since learned was held. Than on March 25, in a letter received from Colonel Lyman, he pointed out that the Military Government had withdrawn its control of the organisation and that we were now in the hands of the Dominican Government, and on April 6, in company with the General Secretary who was now released from prison and one of the members of the Trustee Board, we want to the Alcaldia and received all that had been conferred, charter, book, diagno- eti. The criticism of the people ran high, and, on April 25, the doors of our Examination Hall were again thrown open to an eager crowd, when THE NEGRO WORLD. SATURDAY. JUNE 10. 1922 sugar producing country, and canes must be planted and cultivated purely for the purpose of manufacturing rum hence the whole expenditure must be charged up against the rum as expenditure on its production. In Barbados and Demerara, on the other hand, rum is a by-product of the sugar industry, and not merely so, but it is manufactured from what may be termed refuse matter. The stuff from which we are informed the rum is made would but form its usefulness for this purpose be allowed to run to waste. In such circumstances it is not surprising that after freight and all other charges we paid it is still possible for the imported article to be sold cheaper than it can be manufactured on the spot. We are thoroughly in accord with any action the government might take to rectify this position in favor of local planters and manufacturers, and we strongly advise our small proprietors to be up and doing so that they may be able to reap the full benefits of this new industry. It may be said that the difficulty of erecting small factories to convert their canes into syrup will prove insurmountable, but we do not think so. There is already a strong nucleus of such plants all over the island, and with co-operation between the people many more can be erected at suitable points capable of taking off the crops of the surrounding lands. This change in the policy of the government was, we are informed effected at a round table between the honorable Treasurer and a strong delegation appointed by the Dominica Agricultural Society. We hope and believe that this decision will be of great benefit to our people and that this action of the society will long be remembered to its credit by thankful beneficiaries. His Excellency delivered an able address touching on those members who were too weak-kneed to stand by the organization, taking for his subject "Why seek ye the living among the dead." But the day never to be forgotten by the organization as one of supreme triumph was Sunday, April 30, when in response to certain invitations issued, punctually at three-thirty p.m. we were honored with the presence of the Civil-Governor, of the Province of San Pedro de Macoris, Seybo, the Provost-Marshal, representing the Military Government, two members of the Honorable Ayuntamiento, and other distinguished Dominican officials. After the singing of the Dominican anthem the chairman, Brother Joseph Thomas, introduced His Excellency, Hon. John Sydney de Bourg to the audience, who arose and in a calm and dignified manner, bowed to the distinguished officers, then addressing the people took for his subject "Be not as the horse or mule that hath no understanding. This he, with marked accuracy and great diplomacy, beautifully analyzed justifying the opinion of his hearers as being indeed a "bold and untiring plenipotentiary of the race." Among other things to be mentioned is the address in Spanish by Sister Labea Lady Sorciery, which was ended with the recital of the Ethiopian National Anthem in Spanish. She endeavored in z short and simple manner to explain the aims and objects of the Association as set down in the constitution, dwelling large] upon the words of His Excellency. Hon. Marcus Garvey, "That the Universal Negro Improvement Association teaches loyalty to all governments." Whereupon the civil governor arose and expressed his entire satisfaction saying, in part "That as he was now fully convinced that the organization tended to the advancement of the race, he will henceforth give to it all the support and strength that lay within the limits of the law." The military officer then addressed the people. He seemed deeply interested, and said "After listening to the instructions given you by your leader there is little left for me to say except that I am greatly in favor of your laws as set down in your constitution, but this advice I will leave with you remember you have undertaken a great task, that of building a nation, and a nation cannot be built in a year, or two, therefore do not be discouraged at the first appearance of difficulties, for they will come. All you have got to do is to stick to it with a determination to accomplish that which you have in view." The president of the Consulio Chapter, Bro. A. Labega, then held the audience spellbound for about five minutes on loyalty to the cause. Just here it would be well to note the broadmindedness of the administration Consulio, principally Messra. Albert Bass and Kilbourne, who placed their steamboat at the service of the members of the said chapter to bring them to the town and take them back. They left our meeting at about 5 o'clock p. m. when we stood up and joined as in giving three cheers for the administration Consulio. After the departure of the Consuliosia Mr. "AFRICAN REDEMPTION FUND" --- Started by the Universal Institution for the Liberation Asked to Subscribe The Universal Negro Improvement the responsibility of freeing the degrees of the world and with the aid a universal fund to capitalize it.
