The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro VOL. XII. No. 21 Marcus Garvey Who Critic VOL. XII. No. 21 FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: For quite a while a large number of self-appointed critics have been endeavoring to criticize the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Black Star Line Steamship Corporation and Marcus Garvey. I have noticed that on more than one occasion the Literary Editor of The Negro World editorially commented on the criticisms of some of these critics. In last week's issue of The Negro World I saw an editorial reference to criticisms of Marcus Garvey by Messrs. Chandler Owen and Randolph, Socialist editors of the little, irregularly published magazine known as the "Messenger." I have not personally seen the published criticism of the editors of the "Messenger," but from what I can infer from the comments of the editorial of The Negro World I readily understand that the criticism was of such a nature as to cause the readers of the magazine to believe that from a business point of view the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Black Star Line and Marcus Garvey were not very successful. I am further constrained to believe that that is the nature of the criticism because of previous criticism by the said gentlemen and by others of their ilk. I understand also that they have compared the business projects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association with the failure of the True Reformers and the Metropolitan Realty Company. Of the Do-Nothing Group These two young men, Owen and Randolph, are wickedly malicious for writing in that strain, because they know that the Universal Negro Improvement Association's business projects are all alive and bid fair to be the most successful business enterprises undertaken by the race, while the True Reformers and the Metropolitan Realty Company are out of business. These young men belong to a group of "Negro-do-nothings" who cannot tolerate the success of others of their own race; hence, they find all kinds of excuses and reasons for maligning all legitimate business efforts on the part of men who are capable of doing things so as to hold them up to public ridicule. Before Owen and Randolph can speak of the failure of any business and the incompetency of any individual to do business they should first prove their success and their competency to handle business, not big business, but small business. These fellows and their ilk are always very ready to criticize the balance sheet of other people's enterprises, but, unfortunately, we have never seen their balance sheets so as to be able to gauge their great ability for business. But everybody who knows the "Messenger" ought to know that the magazine has no balance sheet. Everybody knows that it is published irregularly, and it is alleged that the reason is the non-availability of funds. Sometimes, you know, the stock in trade of Soviet Russia goes up and sometimes it goes down; sometimes the bank pays and sometimes it does not; sometimes the Socialist bank pays and sometimes it does not, and some of us are DEPENDENT upon the good will of the stock market for our existence, especially in the journalistic field. If Soviet STOCK goes up we are all right and we can make a big noise. When the stock goes down we sneak back into our holes and peep out at progressive men and try to come back at them by maligning their character as well as their effort. Swapping Stories of Success If Marcus Garvey were to compare himself with Messrs. Owen and Randolph he would say this to the gentlemen: "Four and a half years ago I started the movement All Roads from the Four Corners of the 31st of August, 1922. If You Haven't Seen Be in Line for the Parade at 1.30 P. M.; Aug When 50,000 Persons Will Be Present to He A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 Asks Maliciousize Him to Pro CRITICS HAVE PRODUCED NOTHING ON THEIR OWN ACCOUNT GARVEY CHALLENGES IRRESPONSIBLE MEN TO COMPARE ACHIEVEMENTS DECLARES IF PLACED ALONGSIDE OF DU BOIS TO CREATE HE WOULD OUTDISTANCE HIM TEN YEARS OUT OF FIFTEEN GARVEY WILLING TO START LIFE OVER ON EQUAL TERMS WITH DU BOIS TO PROVE ABILITY WHERE CRITICS TAKE UP THE CRITISE? for the unification of the Negro race and for their general uplift without the assistance of anyone, not even a Soviet government. All the stock in trade was a little intelligence, a little personal cash and a determination to do." Now, what has happened after four and a half years? We see the great Universal Negro Improvement Association a worldwide movement thoroughly organized throughout the United States of America, Canada, the West Indian Islands, South and Central America, Europe, Asia, Australia and Africa. We find millions of Negroes professing a new faith and husbanding a new hope. We find the sentiment of Negroes revolutionized everywhere. We find hundreds of Negro enterprises springing up in America, the West Indies, Africa, as well as South and Central America, caused through the successful propaganda of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We find established a successful Negro weekly newspaper, the greatest in the world, known as The Negro World. We find established to the credit of the Negro a line of steamships known as the Black Star Line, which has sent out two of its ships on the high seas and has registered the Negro as a competitor in maritime affairs. We find enterprises, namely, grocery stores, restaurants, laundries, tailoring and dress making establishments established at different points of the country in the name of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We find this organization owning property in America, Africa, the West Indies, South and Central America. We find this organization giving employment to thousands of Negro men and women, and all of the above mentioned have been brought about by one individual starting out actively four and a half years ago with a determination to do, and without the assistance of anyone but those who had confidence in his ability to put the program over, and who subsequently became members of the organization. Now, if Marcus Garvey has done these things, is Marcus Garvey a success or a failure? The public will answer for Owen and Randolph, because I hardly believe that they are honest enough to pass fair judgment. And now what have Owen and Randolph done in the like space of time? They have been agitating, they have been talking Socialism during the time Garvey was organizing the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and Owen and Randolph are still on stepladders on Lenox Avenue, New York, trying to sell a few copies of their latest publication; at 15 cents per copy, that they happened to get out of the printers' hand by chance. If Randolph and Owen have nothing standing to their credit by way of commercial success, how dare they Globe Lead to LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, for Years, Meet Me at LIBERTY HALL. Be first 1st. Meet Me at the 71st REGIMENT ARMOR by the Greatest Orator of the Race Speak for Life criticize someone who has something to his credit—and as of Randolph and Owen, so of the many men who have criticized the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Black Star Line and Marcus Garvey for the last two years. There is not one of them, from Du Bois to Cyril Briggs, that has made a success of anything that stands to their individual credit. Du Bois started many papers of his own without success. He never became a recognized personality in the race until he was sponsored by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, an organization promoted by philanthropic white men and women. And yet these men who have nothing independently standing out to their credit are the ones who are criticizing others and telling how incompetent they are as business men when they themselves have not proved even good office boys in a good business establishment. Parasites I trust the public will pay absolutely no attention to the ravings of these men who are non-producers; they are only consumers, that is all that they are. Yes, the fellow down in Fifth Avenue can consume the salary of $6,000 that somebody will plan and get for him; the other fellow up on Seventh Avenue will consume as many dollars as the Soviets will hand out. But let them produce the goods. They cannot, simply cannot. Marcus Garvey will bet the last dime he has, and put his last suit of clothes in the pawnbroker's hand, on a wager that if he were placed alongside of any of these men who have criticized him for the first one to make good that he would surpass them by the space of ten years in the race of life if life lasts but for fifteen. Marcus Garvey does not hold himself up to be a door of the impulse. Marcus Garvey is not a man; he is not a man who does not enter a given room; he is not a man who does not Garvey for a ship of the Black Star Line not making a success at sea as a fool, because no head of any steamship company can guarantee what will be the action of the captain of one of his ships when he clears port. If a captain wants to sell or confiscate your goods; if a captain wants to pile up debts on a steamship company for his own selfish profit, what can the president of that corporation do, especially when the individual may be in league with some powers that be, and especially the only powers that could punish him if he creates a criminal offense against the corporation? Not Until Then What can Marcus Garvey do if men are employed to do their work and they prove to be dishonest and dishonorable in the performance of that work? What could Jesus do dealing with a dishonest man but to wait and punish him at His judgment? and judgment is not just now. What will happen in the meanwhile—Jesus would be robbed. Let those who criticize the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Black Star Line and Marcus Garvey prove to the world their higher ability by doing things, and when they have succeeded in doing things better than Marcus Garvey, the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Black Star Line, then we will listen. Until then all the vaporings of Du Bois, Chandler Owen, Randolph and Cyril Briggs count for naught. No sensible Negro will pay any attention to their ravings. I trust the Literary Editor of The Negro World will no longer pay any attention to the carpings of these irresponsible individuals. The columns of The Negro World are too precious to be used on such unprofitable characters. I am now making another appeal to the four hundred million Negro of the world to send their best representatives to our third annual international convention to assemble in New York from the 1st to the 31st of August. We are expecting the biggest assemblage of Negro intelligence ever brought together at any time in the world's history. The program to be discussed in one of vital interest to every black man, woman and child. It is incumbent upon all of us, therefore, to give our moral and financial support to make the convention a bumper success. You can support us morally by seating in the information of our good work, and financially you can send in your contribution to the convention list of 1922. Send $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 addressed to the Registrar, Universal Negro Improvement Association, 54-56 West 135th Street, New York City. You can also help the movement by subscribing to the African Redemption Fund. Send us your $2 now, and swell this fund, so as to enable the organization to carry on in propaganda work in the cause of a free and independent Africa. --- GUERRILLA WAR FEARED AS HOTTENTOTS BEGIN NEW UPRISING Cape Town Government Alarmed Over Concentration of Forces—Local Hottentots Joining Rebels CAPE TOWN, June 18.—The special correspondent of the Cape Argus, writing from Kalkfontein, Southwest territory, says the settlers there believe that the trouble with the Hottentails is far from over. A prospector whose headquarters are near Alaia, on the Great Fish River, forty miles west of Kalkfontein, reports that the main body of the insurgent Bondelswarts are gathering there, and mean to fight. "We shall have to dig them out, and it is a wicked country," he added. Nicholas Christian, chief of the Bondelswarts tribe, told him they were out against the Dutchmen. Englishmen were all right. The main grievance appears to be concerned with the branding of cattle. The natives labor under the impression that their cattle once branded with government implements, will cease to be their own property. The dog tax is another sore point, and the informant expressed the opinion that the complaints on that subject were not unreasonable, as there was abundance of game, and what mattered it if the poor devils did kill a few springbok. "We are up against the finest guerrilla fighters in the world," remarked this authority in further conversation "The Hottentots can beat the Boers out of sight. They are skillful in planning ambushes, they waste no ammunition, never firing at a range of over thirty yards. We have only had affairs of outposts so far. Go down the Orange River and see what monuments the Germans have left. It is a vast cemetery. For seventy miles down the river it is a mass of graves. The Germans employed 6,000 men to clear the Fish River, and could not do it. The country is like the Alps, and aeroplanes will be no good." The leader of the revolt, the speaker added, is unquestionably Morris, and everything depends on his skillful leadership. With reference to the above alarmist report, which is partially confirmed from other sources, it may be explained that it is no part of the Union Government's policy to dig out the enemy, and other measures will be taken. Meanwhile the forces engaged are having trying times, and there are indications that Cape Hottentots are slipping through and joining the enemy. WASHINGTON, June 30.—To better the desperate political situations of Senator Lodge (Republican, Massachusetts) and some of his Republican associates who seek reelection this fall, the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was modified today and favorably reported by the Senate Judiciary Committee. Efforts will be made to secure action on this measure in the Senate, but the Democrats will solidly oppose it. Although every member of the Judiciary Committee except Shortridge (Republican, California) regards the proposed legislation as unconstitutional, the vote for a favorable report stood to 6. The eight were Republicans—Dillingham, Brandegee, Cummins, Colt, Sterling, Ernst, Shortridge and Nelson. Borah (Republican, Idaho) and five Democrats voted against the report. They were. Culberson, Overman, Reed, Shields and Walsh of Montana. Norria, Republican, and Ashurst, Democrat, were not present. Sesk Negro Vote Since the latter part of January, when the Dyer bill passed the House, Senator Lodge has labored early and late with members of the Judiciary Committee, imploring them to bring in a favorable report. He explained that organizations of Negroes all over the country are continually on his back demanding protective legislation. He insisted that some showing must be made to propitiate and hold the Negro vote. Otherwise he might be beaten in Massachusetts, Freling, even endangered in New Jersey, Beveridge would be menaced in Indiana, and so on down the line. It was essential, Senator Lodge declared, that I Senate go thro' the form of attempting to enact antitrusting legislation. He urged that a bill be passed and the Supreme Court permitted to pass on its constitutionality. Borah was chairman of the subcommittee that considered the Dyer bill for weeks. He and his associates hold it to be constitutional. Borah insisted his vote for a favorable report must meet circumstances. Other Republican members of thebury Committee took a different view. They were willing to modify the bill and said it along to the subcommittee. Hence the measure was enacted and the favorable report ordered. JUSTICE H. I. C. BROWN APPOINTED JUNIOR PUISNE JUDGE OF JAMAICA be recoverable from the county in which a lynching occurs. If there be no relatives this reverts to the Federal Government. The modification added to the bill today follows. "Provided that it shall be charged in the indictment that by reason of the failure, neglect or refusal of the officers of the State charged with the duty of prosecuting such offense under the laws of the State to proceed with due diligence to apprehend and prosecute such participants the State has denied to its citizens the equal protection of the law. It shall not be necessary that the juridical allegations thereon required shall be proved beyond a reasonable doubt, and it shall be sufficient if such allegations are sustained by a preponderance if the evidence" EARTH GOOD TO EAT IN VALLEY OF HEBRON Also Natives on Banks of Amazon Nourish Themselves When More Substantial Food Is Lacking (From the Detroit News.) In several parts of the world the dearth of food compels men to nourish themselves with certain kinds of earth which possesses a true nutritive power. The fact is mentioned in the old and curious book of Naude in defense of the great men accused of magic. It is there said that certain earths of the Valley of Hebron are good to eat. Toward the mouth of the Orinoco the Ottomacs, a native tribe, at certain seasons of the year nourish themselves to a great extent with a fat ferruginous clay Spix and Martius say that a similar custom is found on the bans of the Amazon, and those learned travelers relate that the natives there eat this earth even when there is no lack of more substantial food. It is also known that an edible clay is sold in the markets of Bolivia, Glddon, and that there are a number of earth-eating tribes in North America, and there are clay-eaters in the Carolinas and Georgia. But nature has now and then produced a perfect animalised meal. It is well known that in times of dearth the Laplanders nourish themselves with a white mineral dust, which they substitute for cereal products. Retzius, who examined this meal found that it was composed of 19 species of infusoria, similar to those now found around Berlin; and the scientist has shown that this skeleton dust, which is also found in Finland and Sweden, owes its nutritive qualities to a certain amount of animal substance which chemical analysis detected after so many ages. PROFESSOR AGGREY FOR SOUTH "West Africa" learns that Dr. J. E. Kwegyir Aggrey is taking up an important position at the South African Native College, Fort Hare, and that he is at present completing his Ph.D. course in the Department of Sociology in Columbia University, New York. This will be a distinct loss to West Africa, since we have been building on the hope that the doctor will one day come over to Macedonia and help us. And yet the Gold Coast government might have employed Professor Aggrey at the head of the Education Department with effective results and lasting benefits to the race. In the French African colonies native genius, wherever discovered, is promptly harnessed to the development of the race, and the presence of the author of "Batoula" and M. Diagne in important official positions is a testimony to French recognition of merit in a black skin.—The Gold Coast Leader. In the legal profession the Negroes and Negroids have always been prominent. In fact, the Negro has ever been possessed of exceptional oratorical gifts, and these gifts have shown to advantage wherever or whenever he has been accorded equality of opportunity. He has frequently seized the opportunity when his surroundings were most discouraging. We have the examples of Frederick Douglas, Booker T. Washington of America, and the Hon. Marcus Garvey of Jamaica. These three Negroes, together with the late Prof. Price, notwithstanding early disadvantages and almost insurmountable obstacles, are several regarded as the formest orators of their time. It is indeed true that they were not lawyers, but the late Sir Samuel Lewis of Sierra Leone was a legal luminary and an orator of the first rank. This is equally true of that other Hon. William H. Lewis of Boston, who was assistant Attorney General of Washington, D. C. He was Sir William Conrad Reeves, the late Chief Justice of Barbados; Hon. A. P. Brown of British Guiana, Sidipullod of Trinidad, Solicitor General House of Barbados, and now we have His Honor, Mr. Justice H. I. C. Brown, Junior Pruse Judge of Jamaica. This gentleman, who was a K. C. and Registrar of the Supreme Court of the Colony, has recently been passed to the Yankees Judge of the National Senate as second Pruse Judge of the National Senate Court by Mr. Windows THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 NEGRO WOMEN OF BOSTON WILL HOLD IMPORTANT CONFERENCE THE LA CEIBA, CUBA, U. N. I. A. PROGRESSING --- For one year and more the La Ceiba Division of the U N I A and A C L has made little or no progress. Great credit is due the officer of this division for their courage and perseverance. Though fighting against great odds they have been local Garveyas bravely upholding the principles of the U N I A. The La Ceiba Division has passed through a fury ordeal, but is now on the high road to success. Here in La Ceiba we have many Negroes who are bitterly opposed to Garveyism Home are too aristocratic, while others are too religious to become U N I A members. In the early part of the month (March), we received a send from Mr D E. Thorpe Commissioner for Spanish Honduras. During his stay in La Ceiba two mass meetings were staged, with good results. Our Black Cross Nurses were inaugurated and fourteen persons were converted to Garveyism and are now stunnch members of the La Ceiba Division. We are looking forward to another visit from the Commissioner in the near future. Brother Jethro Dilbert, an active member of the Porvenir Branch of the U N I A and A C L (Chapter 110) departed this life on Friday, April 14 at Rincon, Spanish Honduras. Brother Dilbert was one of the last persons in Porvenir to become U N I A a member. He showed his interest and enthusiasm by converting his family to Garveyism and trying to do whatever he could to enhance the progress of the Porvenir Branch. His dwelling in Porvenir was used as a local Library Hall until the branch was able to procure its own hall. Being financially embarrassed, he went to Rincon seeking employment. A short time after his arrival in Rincon he became ill and this illness terminated in death. Brother Dilbert has left a wife and three children to mourn his loss. HARRY P DISS. Reporter LADY DAVIS VISITS INDIAN HARBOR DIVISION INDIAN HARBOR, Ind—Commissioner H. F. Carroll visited the division of the U.N. here on his regular monthly tour to collect members for the organization. He made a four-day trip for the African redemption and convention funds. After the Commissioner's visit the international organiser, Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, visited the division for the first time and made a stay of three days in a membership drive. A reception was held for Lady Davis before she departed for Terre Haute, Ind., where the High Commissioner had arranged a meeting for her. The Race women of Boston are becoming very active in the interests of their people. This is as it should be. It is obvious that any forward movement in the direction of Race uplift must have the support of our women. Their activities in church work has been an evidence of their organizing ability and now that they have the vote they should be encouraged to use it in the direction of racial uplift, for it must not be forgotten that the mother has much more to do with the training of the man than the father, and the impressions of childhood, for good or ill, are rarely eradicated from the adult. It is therefore with pride that we draw the attention of our readers to a conference of Massachusetts women which will be held in Charles Street A M E. Church, Rev. Dr. U. G. Leeper, pastor, at the corner of Charles and Mount Vernon streets, Boston, Mass. Thursday, July 6, 1922, beginning at 10 o'clock a.m. The meeting is called to devise ways Churchill, Secretary of State for the Colonies. Mr. Justice Brown was educated at York Castle High School and at Pembroke College, Oxford. He won the Jamaica scholarship in 1992 and decided to study law. He proceeded to England and was called to the bar, Lincoln's Inn, in January, 1989. He acted as Bollitor General from April, 1905, to April, 1906; assistant to the Attorney General from April, 1906, to January, 1912; acted as Attorney General for various periods in 1907, 1908, 1909 and 1911. He served as a nominated member of the Legislative Council from 1909 to 1912, and was acting President of the Marine Board at various periods in 1907, 1908, 1909 and 1911. He was made a reference of titles and appointed registrar of the Supreme Court in January, 1912. He has acted as Judge of the Kingston Court for various periods in 1913 and 1914, and again in 1918 and after the death of Mr. Justice Cargill. He also acted as Pulsus Judge of the Supreme Court on more than one occasion. He is also a Justice of the Peace for Kingston. We are sure that members of the legal profession—indeed, the majority of Jamaican, and Negroes generally—will be pleased to learn of the permanent elevation of Mr. Justice Brown to the Supreme Court bencht, a seat on which on several occasions he had filled with great credit to himself and honor to his country.

CELEBRATES ITS 2D ANNIVERSARY Holds Four-Day Conference —Prominent Persons BALTIMORE MD - The Baltimore Division No. 72 of the U N I A celebrated its second anniversary on June 1 to 4 at the new Liberty Hall, 1430 34 Pinnacle avenue. The president, Prof J R L. Diggs presided over each day. He is a man of great ability. Too much cannot be given him. The American leader, Hon J W H Eason spoke at one of the meetings and his speeches awakened Baltimore and when he entered the hall he was greatly applauded. The Hon Kanausana a native of India, also spoke and enlightened his audience on conditions in India. He stated that the people of India are taught to believe that the colored people of America are barbarians. He was very much surprised to find our people so intelligent. He brought greetings from India and informed his hearers that his people want to join hands with us and if such a thing is achieved great things can be accomplished. The Black Cross Nurse headed by their president, Mrs. L. D Johnson, were present each night in their uniforms and added grandeur to the occasion. There was a musical program each night headed by Mr. Joshua Duvat, who composed a song in honor of our American leader, entitled "Our American Leader." The song added greatly to the meetings. Quite a few new members were enrolled. On Thursday a reception was tendered in honor of our distinguished visitors. Lady President Mrs. Cora B. Earle was chairman of the committee and expressed her gratitude to the members for the success of the meetings. and means and to formulate plans for the following objects, namely — 2 To direct especial attention to the great responsibility, now reating upon women, to bring about better and more efficient government in our commonwealth and in the nation. 3 To secure increased participation of women in all activities and in every line of human endeavor, civic, economic, and industrial, which tend towards the highest interest and best welfare of the community. 4 To appeal for concerted action and the aid, assistance and sincere cooperation of all true women and men in our effort to make our country in deed and in fact what it proclaims itself to be—a government of law and order wherein every citizen has a fair chance, the same opportunity and the equal protection of the laws. An evening session will be addressed by excellent speakers and will have fine music, commencing at 8 o'clock. Quito a comprehensive program and one that should be fraught with far-reaching consequences to the Negro. We note the name of that tireless worker, Mrs. Mary E.

BRINKLY In the ordinary run of the day's news of nearly all Southern newspapers we read stories of offences committed by some members of the colored race. On the other hand how many stories do we read giving encouragement for the great strides that they have made since 1865? Why should sharp cleavage of race be stressed to the point of denying them space in our Southern dailies in which to set out their many accomplishments? It matters not what theorists may think the fact is that the white and colored people of America and especially of the South must and will continue to live in the same communities. It is the plain duty of the whites to give them every encouragement proper to help them lift themselves, to give them and in their efforts to make themselves good citizens and of value to the community in which they live. Southern newspapers as a rule play up the unfortunate deeds of some of their race, but how often does one read articles about their banking interests, their social welfare work, which is well organized and ably managed to their domestic schools, to their business and professional activities, to their part in various branches of community work, to their large church membership to their attendance at institutions of learning to their increasing share in developing projects for the betterment of their race and to engage in other philanthropy." I want to say right here before going further: "I want to am a member of the white race reading in Virginia, and I can say positively that race hatred does not exist here, except among a few of the narrow-minded This statement is, of course, contrary to the opinion held in other contrary to the opinion held in other sections of the country. We white people know that the colored people of this Stato represent the best of their race here in America and have, as before stated, made wonderful utrikes since 1865. If that is true—and unquestionably it is true, why should they not be encouraged and give them public credit, for what they have done and are now doing? Surely they deserve it. Why should they be denied space in the white press of the South in which to set out their accomplishments? One enterprising evening daily in a prosperous Southern city has already announced, editorially, that it will devote space two or three times each week for this purpose. Will other papers throughout the South follow the example of this farighted publication? When Uncle Sam issued his draft, call the colored men of the South lost no time in registering. They wanted to go and fight for those left over here. I remember well one evening passing an old colored "mammy" crocheting a sweater for one of her boys who was over there. I said, "Auntie you seem to be busy this evening." Yes, honey, she said, "I can't do much good. I'm just 70 now, but I am making a sweater. I'm doing what little bit I can. That a the spirit of the colored people in the South. KNONVILLE, TENN —Sunday June 11, was a red-letter day in the city of Knoxville Tennessee, when over five hundred people gathered at Jem Hall to witness the unveiling of the charter of the division of the U. N. A. here. At 12:30 p.m. a parade was formed on Payne avenue, reaching into Vine avenue at a distance of one-half mile in length. William Holmes bore the colors of the Red, Black and Green G. Beasley carried the colors of the Stars and Stripes. The Black Cross nurses were dressed in their uniforms. Dr W. W. Derrick was master of ceremonies. Miss Athelstein Derrick was the pianist. Among those taking part in the program were L. Simpson, G. W. Bibbs, Miss Calley Honeyworth, Miss Banka, Dr D W Crawford, Mr Charles Mere, T M N. Bll, N D. Mrs McGhen, Mice Talmor Williams, Dr J H Parnell, Rev. Jinkins, Miss Velone Williams, Miss Emmaline Nichols and Miss Florence Mickens. Rev T C. Glashen, High Commissioner for the State of Tennessee, spoke on "Principle and Determination." MR. GARVEY STORMS BATON ROUGE, LA. BATON ROUGE, La. June 21.—This was red letter day in the city of Baton Rouge, when His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey visited the city. A parade consisting of about 2,000 members of different divisions was held in the afternoon. The legion, in their uniforms, and the Black Cross nurses and juveniles led the parade. After the parade a mass meeting was held in the Progressive Baptist Church. There were fully 7,000 people in the building. When Mr. Garvey arrived he was greeted with applause. He held the audience spell-bound for one hour and 20 minutes during his address. Mr. Garvey also spoke at 7:30 at the High School on Government street to a large crowd. BRUCE-"GRIT" IS RECUPERATING IN MASSACHUSETTS (By a Special Correspondent) CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 30.—That dean of journalism, Bruce "Grit," is here recuperating for a few weeks. He deserves this much needed rest, for he has been in harness for almost fifty years, and it is very doubtful whether any other journalist has done the amount of spade work he has accomplished on behalf of the Negro race at large, and those of America in particular. Real journalism has no boundaries of race color or creed and John E Bruce skates with T T Fortuna and Mr Brathwaite of the Houston Transcript" the honor of being among those few journalists of African descent in the United States who have been permanently engaged on the staff of a white publication. In addition Bruce "Grit" has had more articles and letters on the Negro question published in the white press of America than all of the other colored writers combined. Bruce has always been a public character. A gentleman in the truest sense of the term.

Beginning just a little over two years ago, in one small room of a music school, it has more than quadrupled in size and is moving rapidly forward to take its place among the foremost business colleges of this country. Graduates of this institution are locating in various parts of the country and from most of their reputations are reflecting great credit upon themselves and upon their alma mater. Mr Jennifer, the president and founder of this institution, is highly gratified over the recent progress of the school and the outlook for a bigger future. He feels that the present teaching staff and student equipment and office appliances which the school offers are second to none in the race. He wishes to thank the public in general, his many friends in particular and his colleague for their loyal support in making the school a success. The school is now located in the beautiful new building erected by the Southern Aid Society of Virginia at the corner of Seventh and T streets, N W Washington D C In connection with the Jennifer Business College the management operates and controls the Criterion Commercial Service which renders the public service in typewriting and stenography, stenographic reporting, mimeographing, multigraphing, addressographing, printing, advertising and their correlated subjects.

In the selection of Mr. Thomas Gibson as its manager, the U N I A. emphasized its policy of recruiting its parts of industry from the ranks of those most capable and efficient. Mr Gibson was employed for years by the J E Dixon Wholesale Grocery Co. and later by the Sheffield Farm Produce Co., finally operating a successful grocery business for himself in West 123d street for a number of years. He was already car-marked for this job when the organization took over this store in account of his loyal support of the movement.

Universal Grocery. Store No. 3 is situated in the heart of the black belt 552 Lenox avenue, corner of 133th street, the largest and most flourishing of these markets. Like the other Universal stores it is apacious, well lighted and sanitary. This enterprise comprises a meat fish and poul- --- try market, the only one of its kind in Harlem Although surrounded by white competitors, this store is giving a good account of itself. The grocery department is in charge of Mr Charles G Walrot who was among the pioneer Negro grocers to invade Harlem, and who formerly operated a grocery in West 133th street. He was selected for his present position on account of his previous experience and fitness, Mrs Alice Tobias, his assistant is an experienced saleswoman and stockkeeper. This store has one of the most inviting displays of goods on the avenue. Mr Walrot gives two reasons for the assured success of the Universal stores, viz., the co-operative purchasing of goods, enabling them to compete with such stores as the James Butler and the Daniel Reeves chains of groceries, even though the Universal stores are sometimes compelled to profit less than the latter, and the growing tendency of the race to patronize its own industries when these industries can compete in price and quantity with others, as emphasized by the U. N I A. program. "This is the practical application of Mr. Garvey's propaganda," said Mr. Walcot. "It keeps some of the money in the control of the race, opens up avenues of employment, and trains them in the marts of industry." Mr Walcot predicts the successful operation of large department stores by Negroes within the next decade. The meat, fish and poultry department is operated by Mr. C. W. Anderson, the first Negro butcher to hang his meat-hook out in Harlem. It is said that Mr. Anderson knows every bone in a fish and the anatomy of fowls and domesticated animals better than a veterinary. He gained his experience in the stock yard, and has the reputation of having slain and cut up more beef, sheep and hogs than any colored butcher known. Rumor has it that he once saw a bean. Be that as it may, Mr. Anderson is not a vicious man; on the contrary, he is mild and conservative. A recognised master of his craft, he is a valuable aid to the supervisor in the selection and purchase of the meat, fish and poultry for the organization. Mr. Anderson believes that his patrons are partial to pork, and estimates that the consumption of pork in all its forms daily aggregates many tons in Harlem. ```markdown ``` Whitlock Cylinder Press A.

Universal Restaurant No. 1 is functioning under the management of Mrs Jennie Jenkins. It solved the problem of providing wholesome food at a nominal cost to U. N. I. A. members who come from other cities daily to visit and attend the conferences at Liberty Hall. Mrs. Jenkins is a dietitian of ```markdown ``` no mean ability. After some hesitation, she tells her story, as follows: "Our organization work must be constructive, if we would succeed. Each enterprise should have for its motive the solution of a problem. I had worked hard for the U N. I A., and I felt for my co-workers who came from neighboring cities and had no adequate facilities for boarding. They were compelled to patronize lunch counters and portable refreshment stands, where they paid a high price for the most inferior and unpalatable food. Knowing that our program was cooperative, the idea occurred to me to open a restaurant and furnish sub- stantial and palatable meals to our out-of-town members at a reasonable price. After I secured permission from the powers that be' to use this space for restaurant purposes, and while waiting for the grant of the money with which to begin the enterprise, I borrowed enough money to launch the project. At the end of the first month I had paid the loan and had a surplus on hand. This surplus has continually increased, and I have been able to add more equipment and to have extensive repairs made as the business progressed." "We began with the intention of catering to our non-resident members, but others found us out, and swarm in, and it would be most unwise and unbusinesslike to turn them away; the project here has forced the organisation to recognize the exigency of this very human problem of reducing our customer population from the spread THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 OPERATED BY THE PARENT BODY.

Johnson, the author of this article, is a graduate of the University of Nebraska, and is at present a student of journalism at Columbia University.—Editor. The restaurant normally, seats fifty persons, but is being arranged to accommodate a hundred. The menu consists of everything in season, and is served in liberal portions, less the frocks and frills of the cheap profiteering grill rooms, and devoid of the assumed cast of certain Negro cafeterias that charge an exorbitant price for food and sweeten the patrons' coffee at the steam-table. Soft drinks and ice cream are served at all hours. Mrs Mary Lawrence a food chemist, and formerly a hospital dietitian, preides over the culinary department, and has the reputation of tickling the palate with her home-made products. The up-keep of the place bepeaks the ability of the manager Mrs. Jenkins, who, by the way, is unfortunately run down, physically, and will enter a sanitarium this week to rest and recuperate. During her absence the place will be under the management of Mr Simeon Taylor who has been a valuable aid to Mrs Jenkins. Universal Restaurant No. 2, 78 West 135th Street Universal Restaurant No. 2 is situated at 75 West 135th street. Using restaurant No. 1 is a model, the bill of fare and prices are accordingly uniform. The place is smaller and a laer acquisition, and is open day and night. It has not functioned long enough under the U N I A to acquire a permanent status. According to Mrs Maud Smith, the business fluctuates. Mrs Smith is the day manager, and brings to the enterprise her years of experience in the operation of city and seashore hotels and tea rooms. "My aim," said Mrs. Smith, "is to study my patrons and to please them. We are not in business for a day or a week, but for all time; or, as our leader, Mr. Garvey, says, 'until Africa is redeemed' Every day that we accomplish something, however small, brings us nearer to the goal. This enterprise may be small, but it is a part of the great U N I A. and no chain is stronger than its weakest link." Mr James Reese, the night manager, is listed among the ardent supporters of the organization. He combines the experience of a club stewardship and head-waiter. He is not an easy task, with a white competitor on other sides, and eight eating places in the same block. While we talked with him, Mr Reese exclaimed. "You see, we are between 'the devil and the deep sea'." Just at this moment a truck vender of "hot dogs" and lemonade stopped his cart in front of the place and proceeded to supply thoughtless colored patrons. It is our opinion that the U. N. I. A. would render the public a signal service by establishing more restaurants in Harlem, furnishing wholesome food at a fair price, thus conserving to the race the immense profits for cheap and unsanitary lunch stands, which have sprung up like mushrooms of late The Bee Hive Printing Plant, 2305 Seventh Avenue The Bee Hive Printing Plant is another thriving industry of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and does the bulk of colored Harlem's job printing and magazine making. The plant occupies two floors of the building situated at 2205 Seventh avenue, near 135th street. This enterprise is under the management of a most competent and capable young woman, Miss Lillian Galloway. This young woman knows every feature of the printing business, and is an example of what a woman can do to make her male competitors sit up and look both wise and otherwise. Miss Galloway brings to the Bee Hive a Normal School training reinforced by a course in the Breathwalt School of Business and Shorthand, to which she has added a course of training, for her particular forte, in the New York Employing Printers' Association. She has the splendid support of Mr. Foston and Miss G. A. Floodburn. Both of the latter trained at Columbia University for their present vocation.

As we observed the idiosyncrasy of the place Miss Galloway remarked: "You see we are tidy here even though we were not expecting any visitors." Indicating a bale of waste paper, she said: "We sell that for thirty-five cents per hundredweight." "Do you like your job of being 'boss'?" "Yes, I have always felt that one must be in love with one's work." Then she hastened to point out that the Minister of Industries was her superior in the matter of "boss." The Universal Steam and Electrical Laundry, 62 West 142d Street The Universal Laundry is conducted in the building designated as the Mart of Industry, 62 West 142d street. The operation of the laundry utilizes the ground floor, basement and part of the second story. This enterprise after struggling for existence for two years is now on a successful footing. Its manager, Mr. I. Swift, spent two years of apprenticeship in order to master every detail of the work. His administration as manager of the laundry has doubtless eliminated those rotating features that his predecessors strove to overcome. Associated with him is Mr C. H. Powell, secretary of the laundry enterprise, who checks and marks the articles. "Nothing successes like success," said Mr. Swift, but he declares he could not have that success were it not for the assistance of Miss Jacques, who assists the Minister of Industries in supervising the enterprises in this building, known as the Mart of Industries. The laundry continues to add modern machinery and modern methods, and at present employs a force of sixteen persons. The work is deposited in a big receiving room where it is checked and marked; it is then passed on to the washing department, where, under the supervision of Mr. Henry Brown, it is sorted and put through its several processes. These consist of a number of large washing machines, some with separate compartments for family wet wash. These are automatically shifted to rinsing tanks and those that require it are put through the starring tank. This is all performed by modern machinery, except those delicate fabrics which require hand work. Other equipment consists of a number of mangles for piece and flat work, a machine for ironing gullies, fixing irons and electric trons conveniently arranged at long work tables. The process winds up in a large shipping room, where the work is sorted, checked, wrapped, and shelved preparatory to shipping. The laundry employs two tractors which are busy collecting and delivering, besides the establishment of agencies throughout the basement. The power is produced by a dirty horse power steam engine located in the basement, and governed by the James Gayen engineers who are acquiring his experience in the field of waves. While giving the "sail tubber" an example of his medical skill, he is often seen summoning the plaitative moulder. When are the wild sea waves saying?

The factory is under the management of Mr. Claud C. Ifill, a skilled designer and tailor, who acquired his experience during years of employment in a large tailoring establishment. Here are assembled all the material of cloths, brushes, and the official insignia for the manufacture of the organization's uniforms. Here are displayed the different official uniforms, caps, and regalia of the several uniformed ranks, such as officers of rank, guards and bandmen. Three electric machines hum like a bee hive in July in this factory, which is designed to supply the other branches at a nominal cost. These orders are turned out with neatness and dispatch and shipped to the other branches. The larger program, however, will be to establish like factories in convenient territories, and thus distribute these industries throughout the length and breadth of the world where the organization is growing by leaps and bounds. Manager Ifill is assisted by Mr. C. C Nichols, an expert cutter, and by Mr. Allen, who brings to the work his practical skill as a tailor. Mr. Hill says: "Watch for our big exhibit in designs of regalia and organization uniforms at Liberty Hall during the August convention." Women's Manufacturing Department and Bazaar The third floor of the Mart of Industry, 62 West 142d street, is occupied by the Women's Manufacturing Department. At the head of this factory is Madame H. Weeks, assisted by Miss Amy Jacques, secretary to the president-general. Miss Jacques, though busy in her official capacity as secretary, lends her executive ability to the Minister of Industries in the supervision and supplies that feminine factor and foresight that the minister lacks. Madame Weeks, the manager, is also the proprietress of a fashionable dress- making establishment of 218 West 140th street, this city. Madame Weeks is more than a modiste and designer, she is a creator of fashions and novelties in women's and children's garments, as well as a dexterous maker of man's shirts. She is aided in the factory by Madames Louise Daniels and G. Jaycox, both skilled in the handicraft of millinery. We watched them with adept hands make up the flowers and herbage that adorn women's hats, and saw them assemble these parts into beautiful creations before our astonished gaze. Here are manufactured every form of the women's organization regalia, which was formerly let by contract. These include units, forms for woman of rank, surplices for the choir, uniforms for elks, attendant, and Black Cross nurses. An order has been placed for more equipment to re-enforce the two busy electric machines for stitching, hamming, tucking and other purposes. "We intend," said Madame Weeks "to make this the banner factory of the organization: we are the first in the field, and we feel gratified by the results thus far obtained." "Yea," said Miss Jacquae, "and our manufacturing enterprises here will obviate the necessity of letting our orders to other people by contract. We will employ our own people in these enterprises and keep the money within the race to improve and increase our industries." But that is not all the women's factory has to exhibit. One room which we will designate as a bazaar contains an exhibit of the products and byproducts of these women's creations.

Ministers Would Not Hear Dr Du Bois, Editor of Crisis, Programmed to Address Bishops' Council, But Small Party Forms Conspiracy to Hoot Him Down—Program Is Changed." Then the Age went on to say that the local committee of the Bethel A. M. E. Church invited Dr. Du Bois to speak on Thursday, June 22, at 3:30 o'clock in New York City, after the formal opening of the connectional council of the A. M E. Church by President Henry Y. Tookes. It was further stated that President Tookes approved of the invitation, but Rev. John Harmon and Rev. J. A. Lindsay of Georgia, Rev. J. D. Robinson of Detroit and Rev. J. H. Claybourn of Arkansas formed a conspiracy to hoot the erudite scholar down. Then it was said Rev M. W. Thornton prevailed upon Dr. Du Bois to withdraw his name from the program and that the Bishops' Council sent Dr. Du Bois a letter of regret. This states the actual facts fairly well enough, but not the underlying causes. One of the editors of The Negro World chanced upon three groups of A. M. E. preachers on the evening after the group. General officers were in two groups and an eminent preiding elder in another group. The representative of The Negro World said, "How comes it that a council of A. M.

And that is why they didn't give Dr. Du Bois the full hour that he was scheduled for. MR.

They are looking for a land where they can recline upon a bed of soft, downy grass on a hilltop, where their brows will be kissed and fanned by refreshing breezes, where they can lie on their backs, open their mouths and permit luscious fruit to drop into them, where they can roll over on one side and pick up nuggets of gold and roll over on the other side and grasp diamonds, where no insects, mosquitoes or snakes will disturb them and where no other men will butt in and insist on sharing their wealth, prosperity and happiness.

Wherever the black man takes his habitat, he will face the struggle for existence and the survival of the fittest. No one will disturb the black man in deserts and swamps, but if he desires a resting place that is healthy, beautiful and prosperous he will find himself in the presence of others. And it will be a case of the best man and the best race winning. CORRESPONDENCE CLAUDE McKAY, AND THE CRISIS, VERSUS MARCUS GARVEY LONDON, June 6, 1922 To the Literary Editor, Negro World. Dear Sir!—The Crisis for June has just come to hand, and on page 81 there are some extracts taken from the Liberator and headed with great gusto "Without Honor." The plaint always brought forward by the Crisis—that Marcus Garvey is a West Indian—is referred to in the above extracts under discussion thus: "The peculiar significance of Claude McKay's article on Marcus Garvey in the Liberator is that it represents the estimate of one compatriot of another For both are Jamaican." That is so. But what is the object of the Crisis in reproducing these obviously vaporous and iniquitous outpourings, which can be the outcome of no other source than that of sheer vindictiveness of the most puerile kind. In the Crisis endeavoring to put in its spoke in the Garveyites' wheel of progress because the Negro World discussed the treatment of Claude McKay at a social function at which he was unceremoniously treated, and at which, as one of the editors of the Liberator, he certainly had claim to better consideration. McKay was in London in 1919-1920, and associated himself with the "Dreadnought," the workmen's medium, and certain suffragette movements, hence I presume he writes in the usual intangible and abstract way of most poets. Psychology teaches us that poets cannot by any stretch of the imagination be materialists, and from all that any reader can gather from cuttings about McKay, he is a post in the true sense, and therefore cannot be a radical in the proper meaning of that hacknaked word. I make bold to say that Garvey and his movement is winning more hearts among Africans in and from the Homeland than Claude McKay or the Crisis care to admit. What has any other movement done to uplift the racial dignity of the African race, particularly those in the Western hemisphere, as the U. N. I. A. has done among the rank and file? What has been done? I say. Until there is an up-to-date State where Africans can meet without mobilisation and sedition bills to impede the upward progress of the modern African in and out of Africa, so long will the African be kicked about and frightened to the Negro World relations had occasion to animadvert upon the address of the Virgin Islands for print, with American activities in Santo Domingo, the official rebuke, "Where there is not of this government to muzzle them and those gentle war-time editorials, the violence is always to be deplored" being like a suggestion that to cloud luck and honor among men.

And it will be a case ofunning. CONDENCE that McKay was at that social function given by the Liberator's staff As a race we cannot expect to imbibe that indescribable atmosphere which only those who have been blessed with a visit to Africa can realise is a physical impossibility in any other land on this plane but Africa, when the working out of the black man's destiny is in question. The internal dating of the said extracts is evidently a time immediately subsequent to Marcus Garvey's arrest, some six months ago, for he was arrested somewhere about December 12, 1921. What good does a paper like the Crisis gain by reproducing such extracts? This only proves that the Crisis and its satellites are far less broadminded than they claim to be. I have seen Claude McKay, and I think he would do well with a little of that 'huge, ugly bulk' which his vignacious vision sees in our beloved leader, instead of a stalwart and healthy son of Africa from whom such piny being like our challenger gain strength and vigor to outlive the European or Caucasian race in these periods of modern stress and world-wide sophilitic age. Yours in racial progress and unity. NEFERTARI. A JEW ON NEGRO MOVEMENTS Editor The Negro World: Dear Sir—Grant me space in your peeled journal to mention the happy impression that I obtained Saturday, June 3, during my visit in New York. While in the office of a large business concern there by attention was called to the passing silent parade staged as a protest to lynching. A colored employe in the office, not knowing how informed I was on the cause and object of these two great associations, acquainted me with the different societies that made up the parade. He stressed mainly upon two of the associations which he claims to be the premiers of them all among Negroes known as the U. N. L. A. and the N. A. A. C. P. The former, he said, is commonly known as "the Garvey movement" of international repute, comprising millions of members throughout the world. The latter, a local association, comprising hundreds of thousands; he claims a membership in both. Unfortunately, I am not a member of either one of these two great associations, because I am a Jew and a physician, having scores of colored patients. However, I read every issue of the Criss magazine and also every --- therefore I am not foreign to their alms. FOREIGN AFFAIRS BY DUSE MOHAMED ALI My happy impression came when I saw these two great associations, the U. N. L. A. and the N. A. A. C. P. parading side by side with that grim united determination in protest of a common wrong and to attain a common goal. At length we are getting at the truth about the alleged activities in Asia Minor. From a report before me, issued at Angora on May 20, it appears that Mr. Yowell of the American Relief had been expelled with some of his colleagues from Asia Minor "on account of the agitation they had engaged in and intrigues they were guilty of". It will be remembered that we made a similar statement in these pages a few weeks ago, and the official Turkish report I hold gives the lie to the members of the American Relief who circulated the atrocities report. Furthermore, Mr. Gillespie, trade attache of the American Embassy at Constantinople, in an interview given by him to a correspondent of the Asia Minor News Agency, said: "Yowell's statement published in the Times about atrocities perpetrated against non-Muslims in Anatolia is nothing but a repetition of the lies which appeared in the European and American press some five or six months ago." The correspondents of the Chicago Tribune, Associated Press and the Chicago Daily News refused to accept the reports of Yowell because they knew them to be pure invention. The report was subsequently sold to the Armenians, who had it published in the London Times, and Miss Billing, of the Near East Relief, sent a telegram on the 14th of May to Admiral Bristol, the American High Commissioner at Constantinople, which read as follows: The question that occurred to me was, Why not a conference between the leaders of these two giant associations for a ciliation of them, thus culminating into an impregnable phalanx for their common racial good? As one who has interested himself in the history of your and my race, I am, as a conscientious sympathizer, forced to state that it is imperative to your racial interest and progress that these two powerful associations unite for your common good. In my modest opinion I believe that the man who accomplishes this blending of the two, whether it be Mr. Marcus Garvey, Prof W Ferris, Dr. Du Bole, Prof Moton, Prof. Kelley Miller, James Weldon Johnson, Dean Wm. Pickens, Mr Monroe Trotter, Mr R Bagnal or Mr. Walter White, would be the greatest living Negro of all times and an immortal patriot of his race. L. A. GOLDFINE. Chicago, Ill. "I heard rumors of fresh massacres having occurred at Kharput circulating in Constantinople. I am in constant communication with the Americans in Kharput. I have also seen Americans who have recently come from there. I believe rumors are without foundations." (Signed) FLORENCE BILLINGS. THE PEOPLE WILL SUPPORT PRESIDENT KING Why, we are asked by the opposition group at Monrovia, do we take a stand for President King at this juncture after leading the independent party in the County for nearly twenty years? Why do we dodge is the question put by the enemies of President King to the Editor We reply no, no we are not dodging; we see in President King an efficient, loyal, honest, broad-minded statesman, who is able to rise above part, and support measures to the saving of the State. The position of President King on the Loan question is fair, honest, and consistent and while he does not claim to be perfect in his ideas of administration, yet it is admitted by the best thinkers of the country that his connection with the Plenary Commission at Washington, he did the very best thing that could have been done under the circumstances. Mr Jaquith, the Director-General of the Near East Relief, who is at Angora, not only expresses sorrow for the false accusations, but states that Yowell on his expulsion from Asia Minor ceased to be a member of the Relief Commission and "circulated the reports in his private capacity." The conclusion is obvious. The British Foreign Office is using every means legitimate or otherwise to influence and inflame British and American public opinion against the Turks in order that the peace negotiations at Ismid might be nullified and that Americans may be intimidated and prejudiced from taking up concessions in Asia Minor. * * * It is a great game, this game of international diplomacy which is more secret than ever before, although the late war was intended to put an end to it for all time Lloyd George and Poincare, in their recent London conversations, have had the subject of Tangiers before them again and the poor Moors are to be placed under the heel of France in order that the republic might recognize England's sovereignty on the Suez Canal zone and her flagrant violation of Egyptian independence by the retention of the Egyptian Sudan. It should be borne in mind that these conversations over Morocco began as long ago as 1904 when the late King Edward engineered the entente between Britain and France by the revival of the proposal made by Napoleon III to the late Lord Lyons, the then English Ambassador to France, in which it was proposed that the Mediterranean African littoral should be split up between France, who was to have Morocco; Sardinia, who was to be allotted Tripoli, and England, who was to be given Egypt. Lord Palmerston, who was then Prime Minister of England, declined to have anything to do with the questionable transaction because England had not then adopted its latter-day policy of exploitation and enslavement of the dark and weaker races. King Edward's move in the direction of the French entente was twofold. In the first place because of his anxiety to cement a friendship between a bellicose France, who, smarting under the Fashoda incident and the humiliation of Major Merchant by Lord Kitchener of Khartum, was out to make any trouble she could for "perfidious Albion." And in the second place because of the fact that, as Prince of Wales, Edward, by reason of his extravagance, had been under financial obligations to the Jews and other financiers; and these harpies, whilst unable to touch the head of the State for the return of certain timely monetary considerations, which they felt honored in wiping from their private ledgers, did not hesitate to seek his aid in the direction of African exploitation. The King, who was an honorable man, as honor is accounted nowadays, obviously considered it inminal to his kingly state to be laboring under any obligation to any of his subjects, and therefore he became an unwitting tool in the advancement of the designs of his former creditors. In this way the entente was made an accomplished fact by the one Englishman who—by reason of his extraordinary popularity in France—was immune from the virulent anti-British attacks of the French press No sane man will for a moment attempt to place President King in a false light before people by accusing him of signing away any of the rights and constitutional privileges of our citizens. It was charged by those who opposed his election that if elected he would sell the country to the English, in that, all have the good pleasure of finding in him a true, loyal, patriotic executive, one in whom the Government at Washington considers to be a safe leader for the country at this juncture. — The Monravia) Agricultural World. HARVARD OR AMHERST? Perilent reports that Harvard University is considering the beginning of discrimination in one way or another against Jew and Negro continue to alarm liberal and civilized alumni and citizens. A Harvard man is writing this editorial, and he is only one of many who feel that no matter what the difficulties are, or the material loss in diminished number of students involved in being faithful to the old Harvard spirit, such difficulties and such loss should be accepted as a small price to pay for spiritual purity and high renown. If Harvard deserts its fine ideals and its unworldly standards of tolerance for all, irrespective of race or religion, it will surely lose its prestige. Some other university is bound to appear which will carry on with energy and without compromise the standards which have made Harvard what it is. Perhaps a college like Amberat, which of recent years has made a notable effort to meet courageously and with imagination the needs of the new time and to give full value to the self-controlling ideal of democracy, may be able to unite the old traditions and the vital problems of today successfully. If so, the sons of some Harvard men will go to Amberat with the feeling that they are not departing from Harvard, but, rather, are following its true spirit.—New York American. * * * The German Kaiser, jealous of England's success, landed at Tangiers in 1905, and by promising his support to the then prospective Sultan against the prospective encroachments of France, backed by Great Britain, he almost precipitated a crisis. In due course the French occupation was recognized by Britain with the distinct understanding that in addition to France's recognition of England's operations in Egypt, the republic would be compelled to adjust a Spanish "sphere of influence" in the Riff country of Morocco. Spain has had a very costly colonizing task, as I have previously shown in these notes. France, however, holds Bizerta in Tunis, and if she is also permitted to permanently occupy Tangiers, which had been internationalized by agreement between France, Britain and Spain—but which on account of German propaganda operating from that place during the war, was occupied by France with the consent of Britain and Spain—her dominance of the Mediterranean would be complete, and this consummation would hardly be pleasing to Britain, Italy and Spain, whose Mediterranean interest would be jeopardized by a dominating France. WEDDING BELLS Meanwhile the greater portion of the French sphere in Morocco has been subdued. Spain is still wasting men and money in her unavailing efforts to maintain an empty prestige in a country which, but for its mineral resources, would be very barren indeed, and where Spain's conquest—if she does conquer the Riffans—will deplete her financial resources in the struggle, making it quite impossible for her to find the necessary means to develop the raw materials which are fairly abundant. Moreover, to continue the fight might perchance result in the extermination of the population, for the Riffans are prepared to fight to the last man. They are hardier than the men of the Sherifan empire, and under the sagacious leadership of Abdul Kharin Spain is likely to lose more men in this mad adventure of conquest than the Riffans. The imbroglio thickens. "The best laid schemes of mice and men gang aft agley"—as do the plans of diplomats. Africa, the Orient, and their retention and exploitation by the Europeans, is a rock upon which there is likely to be a split at no very distant date. The embers are smouldering. Armageddon has not yet been fought. Germany is being goaded into desperation by France. There is a treaty of alliance between Russia and Germany. Russia, with an army of 1,600,000 fighting men, is well equipped and she is still arming, arming, arming. Japan is consolidating herself within her island kingdom. She is making her peace with China. The Chinese are settling their internal differences. They have an army of 2,000,000 men well armed and equipped. They have tasted of the blood lust. The Afghans are said to be on the warpath. Turkestan is crueting. Armageddon—THE ARMAGEDDON—is not far off. Greed and the jealousies born of greed are destined to fan the embers into a flame which the Europeans will find unquenchable. For an insatiable greed has wrought jealousies among them and that very greed has also caused the people of Africa and the people of the Orient to cry out in their anguish to an all-seeing God for deliverance from their oppressors. The God who hearkened to Israel in her trial will hear the cry and all the lethal weapons of science which the European has made will not avail him when the black people, and the yellow people, and the A fashionable wedding took place Wednesday, June 7, 1922, at the Church of the Crucifixion, 41 West 140th street, New York, when Arthur Murrell and Miss Sillyen Smith, both of New York, were united in holy matrimony by the Rev.

H. MALONEY Competition is dying out, co-operation is taking its place in the social affairs of mankind today. The collapse of the "balance of power" arrangement because it failed to maintain the peace of Europe paved the way for a new alignment of the little ring making up the oligarchy of the world under the name of the League of Nations. A sense of their identity of interest rather belated, but quite impressive is driving the workers of the world together. Kept in state of internal dissension by the press, which is owned mainly by the ruling class, by the church, which is subsidized by the same class, and by "intellectuals," who have been their vassals, the world's workers have been the subjects of exploitation at the hands of her rulers. But the internationalization of the working class is gaining impetus daily. The anomaly of a hundred discordant voice" in Christendom causing endless confusion in the mission field and culpable inefficiency everywhere is giving rise to a general desire for the reunion of Christendom. Here in America the Federal Council of Churches of Christ is trying hard to speak, with a harmonious voice, the mind of the majority of the influential Protestant sects. The merging of industrial organizations forming great and powerful trusts and combines, linking up a long chain of complementary industries shows how keenly the captains of industry appreciate the economic advantages to be gained for them by concentration of resources and energy. An increasing group of working men duly appreciating the private nature of these industrial concerns, namely that they are social things manipulated for private profits are pooling their political and economic forces to wrest industry and government from the hands of those who exploit and ravish society. "In one domain after the other the individual genius and arbiter of human destiny, the hero" of Carlyle is being dethroned and subordinated to the collective human fraternity." For good or ill, all these instances show forth the definite and undeviating move on the part of class-conscious groups in the direct, of organic union for offensive and defensive strategy. Now, by pressure of circumstances, the race-problem has become a true class-problem with all the psychological qualities that go into the make-up of such a problem and calling for concerted action on the part of the race to safeguard its interests and secure its objectives. Of this fact there can be no question. It is therefore to the advantage of the Negro race that it work out a comprehese sive racial program that will lead it on to the attainment of its peculiar deity It has always been the policy of the exploiting class to keep the exploited class in a condition of internal turmoil and dissension. And so long as it is possible to do this just so long is it possible for exploiters to exploit. Whether by intrigue by baiting, by bribling, by polluting the stream of news transmission and thought transmission, or what not, so long as the parasite class can keep the members of the laboring class clawing at each other's throats just so long will labor be the dog, the host for the capitalist flee. So long as the banking houses, the prospecting companies, the commercial expansion syndicates can succeed in using the instruments of government to foster imperialistic designs by invoking false sentiments of patriotism and national honor just so long might the world expect to have organized murder and have the people believing bene et delecte est pro patria mort. Bo white folk have persistently pursued the policy of keeping Negroes divided amongst themselves. The old Roman system of making every subdued race or nation believe that it was a part of the citizenry of Rome, coupled with the Greek method of progress through opposition, has lingered with us to give direction to government, to economics, to society, and to all our institutional life. Competition is a healthy thing where a homogeneous group decides to indulge in it by way of diversion for a given time, ax, for instance, in athletics or in debate. But no homogeneous group can expect to thrive on a philosophy of unfriendly competition. To keep Negroes contending with each other is a sure way to keep them down. But if they are united those who try to keep them down have got to stay down with them. Hence the policy of keeping the race divided. Towards the working out of this policy politics has contributed its quota. Here was a field in which the Negro found himself possessed of an asset which is as much a commodity as any marketable article. He might have bartered his vote selling it to the highest bidder on the political market, but he was misled into a blind alley and made to sign away the article, together with the right to barter it in one and the same contract. Today his commodity has practically no market value, and the Negroes are spending their energy debating the abstract question as to where the blame should be fixed for this deflation, or mourning the demise of a lost cause. Education has done its part. The ideals of a people are kept alive by the quality of that people's education. The ideals of the governing class are fed up to the governed by means of the instruction given them. "Give us the rearing of the children," says the Bohan Catholic Church, "and we will have no anxiety over them when they are grown." And the Romanists are right. Through the text-books and the general attitude of the schools in the matter of public instruction, the mind of the Negro is inoculated with germs of the ideals of the class which exploits the race. So there is a constant clash going on. The mind of the Negro is made a veritable battle ground upon which there is being waged a war between his natural ideals and those that are being forced upon him without. Anglo-Baxon Christianity has made its contribution also. I don't know—and don't care—what good a divided Christendom can be to the empirical whites, but I do know that it is a bad thing for black folk. The "white church" and the "colored church" are not the same thing. They represent two distinct psychological phenomena. In the former the people congregate to render "service," as Ruskin puts it. They pay God a call to offer their help to Him in the difficult problem of guiding the course of the world. They make God their debtor. They bring Him down to them. To the latter the church is a "meeting place." It is the center of the entire higher life of a people. It is there that their social instincts and ideals find a field for expression. It is there that the talent for racial leadership is developed. It is there that the literary and dramatic faculties of the race have the freedom of range to revel in the more refined and ennobling regions of art. It is there that the problems of the home and of the community are thrashed out. It is from this social meeting place that the souls of Negroes soar up to "to meet their God in the skies." The Christian Church is torn into a hundred fragments on matters of abstract creedal expressions, unintelligible to those who squabble over them, and more so to Negroes, who know little and care less of what the squabble is all about. That will be a great day in the life of our race when the Negro churches come together and quit wasting time fighting battles about theological "nothings." To keep the Negro churches divided is to keep the Negro race divided. Consigned to a given group and made the object of scorn and contempt, it is the part of prudence for the Negroes of America to assemble their scattered and distracted forces, to wield them into one effective instrument, and to focus this instrument upon the fortress of the common foe. To bring this to pass is the task of the leadership of the race. Our leaders have got to practice amongst themselves the principle of harmony and co-operation which they ask of the rank and file. Are they sufficiently big of heart and mind to do it? If they are not, they must step aside and clear the way for others. Thriving Business Enterprises names we cannot recall. These articles are surprisingly cheap, because the profit of the middleman has been eliminated, they range in price from 48 cents to $10. Moreover, the women have not forgotten the men; they have made up a number of plain and fancy shirts and neckwear, and are prepared to receive orders for wholesale or retail lots. These fabrications comprise a variety of designs in material, from cotton to silk. The prices range from 98c to $5.50, retail; liberal discounts are allowed on wholesale lots. Black Cross nurses' uniforms are sent by mail on receipt of the price. Arrangements are being made to publish a universal catalogue and to ship these articles to customers as in a mail-order business. One of the big features of the August convention will be Fashion Show Week, when all articles and inventions of the U. N. L. A. will be placed on exhibit at Liberty Hall. The men and women are vying with each other for the prize exhibit, in which the "eternal woman" leads the men by many lengths. Mr. Ulysses S. Pestan, Minister of Labor and Industries Before taking leave of the subject it may be well to give the public a brief sketch of the man whose office encompasses the supervision of these and other enterprises of the U. N. I. A. His name is Ulysses B. Poston. He was formerly editor and publisher of the Cottender, Detroit's most progressive Negro newspaper, which rendered signal service to the U. N. I. A. in winning Detroit against the strongest opposition that the organization has encountered in any northern city. Mr. Poston is a native of Hopkinsville, Kentucky, and received his normal school training in that state and in Missouri. Later he attended Flake University, where he became interested in the racial relations and the sociological problems, and sought to further qualify himself to ameliorate these conditions by spending a year in the Chicago School of Theological Pedagogy. He found a field for the application of his training in journalism. With his brother, Mr. Robert L. Poston, now assistant secretary-general of the U. N. I. A. he was conspicuous in the solution of the economic and inter-racial relations growing out of the abnormal condition of the World War, in Detroit and other Northern cities, whose war industries drew thousands of Negroes from the South. His work and his journalistic aid were recognized by the Governors of several States. He was appointed Minister of Industries and Labor at the U. N. I. A. convention last August in recognition of his THE BROADWAY Minister of Labor and Industry economic ability, his knowledge of the social problem with its interracial relations and for his loyal support of and service rendered the Garvey movement in achieving the conquest of Detroit and northern Michigan. Industrial enterprises like the U. N. I. A's were advocated by the late Booker T. Washington, but that great captain of industry could never make his enterprises obtain in the North, from which he obtained millions of dollars of support. This failure was due to Dr. Washington's advocacy of the return of the Negro to the Southland and live in subjection to the white man and support him by efficiency in productiveness, while the white man lived in idleness. Marcus Garveys program of race patronage and race industries has obtained in the North because the movement has as its goal the redemption of Africa and the restoration of the Ethiopian empire. Surely, if practical demonstration of capacities for doing things engender courage and 5th, these enterprises owned and successfully operated by the Universal Negro Improvement Association should complete the Negroes' consolation to the organization.

MARCUS GARVEY is an invitation and an opportunity to build up the individual and at the same time strengthen the race and to elevate it toward the goal of an independent nation. This principle of nationality is in process of evolution and is therefore universal. This spirit of race consciousness—this yearning for nationality, long dormant in the scattered tribes of Africa—has shaken off its lethargy, and Negroes everywhere are joining the ranks of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, whose program is to repatriate the Negroes, to restore them to their motherland, to redeem, reclaim consecrate and sanctify the continent of Africa as the home of the Negro peoples of the world for all time. SOMERTON DIVISION Somerton, Arizona —The division of the U. N. I. A. here held a big meeting last Tuesday night. A large and enthusiastic crowd attended. Rev Calman Johnson delivered a brief address.

You may be the exact type we are seeking, even though you have not had previous experience. The three essentials, however, are determination, courage and that invaluable something called personality. FLORENCE MILLS CROWDED HOUSE This Most Famous of Co Harlem by Storm By LUBRIE Florence Mills, with her Plantation Revue, received an ovation in her first appearance at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday night, June 16, which would make any girl feel proud. It is safe to say that no performer coming to the Lafayette Theatre was ever better received or better appreciated by a Harlem audience. She was enclosed repeatedly after each number, and the famous star responded good-naturedly. Some of the songs she sings were quite new to the audience, but in answer to numerous encores she sang two of the numbers which gave her fame in the "Buffle Along company and first started her on the road to success which she so richly deserved Miss Mills was a star among stars, for she was surrounded by such per- DUNBAR, BRAITHW Mc ROBERT L. PO8TON Tuesday, June 27, was the fifth anniversary of the birth of Lawrence Dunbar, great poet. The poems of this great artist have been recited this week with renewed interest throughout the length and breadth of this country, and possibly in England, where he is favorably known and appreciated. There has been some effort of late to compare Claudie McKay with Dunbar as a poet. This is unfortunate. For these men are of such different schools of poetry that a contrast would be more in order Dunbar depicted the life of his people with the emphasis on "Love and Laughter." McKay is a militant poet who can hardly escape the consciousness of his fortunate surroundings even when he describes a rose. After we have read Dunbar we have no other thought but that of the thrill it has given us, of the lovely disposition of a people capable of the sentiments he expresses and of the deep untrampled love in the heart of Dunbar himself, which permitted him to stand within his police or furnace but impress the world against his viewpoint, sometimes with McKay. With a good number of his best poems our first impression is to question before we admire. For McKay believes in indictment—terrible indictment against a system which almost overwhelms him. Of course, the admiration comes, but only after we have analysed the feelings which McKay's writings bring over us. Dunbar never could have written "If We Must Die," nor could McKay have written "Life" or "When Malindy Singa." But that does not make Dunbar or McKay any less great poems because they expressed different sentiments sometimes differently. The poetry of Dunbar will always live, because like Bobble Burns he has set the history of his group to music. But as a poet to lay claim to everlasting fame McKay will have to run this danger: As I have stated McKay is quite often a propaganda poet. This is true in spite of the effort of Max Eastman to make it appear that he writes with disinterestedness, with no particular axe to grind, and that the appeal of his poetry is universal. SURGEON-GENERAL DEPARTMENT INTESTINAL CATARRH (Diarrhea: Catarrhal Enteritis) Definition—A condition in which the stool is too frequent and too liquid. Like dyspepsia, it is a symptom of many pathologic conditions. Cause—Warm weather, childhood, improper food and bad hygienic surroundings are general predisposing factors. The disease is usually exacerbated by irritating products in the intestinal canal or by sudden changes in temperature. Polysomes produced in the decomposition of milk and other foods by bacteria are the most common excitants. Pathology—The mucosa is swollen, slightly infected and covered with a mucous exudate composed of desquigulated and degenerated epithelial cells and leukocytes. The lymph follicles are enlarged and occasionally ulcerated. Chronic enteritis may result from AGENTS WANT Unusual opportunity for qualified requirements. You may be the though you have not had previous this, however, are determination, thing called personality. CALL OR V MINOR & P 232 West 1 NEW YO MAGAZINE PAGE formers as Shelton Brooks, Edith Wilson, Chappelle and Stinnette, and the Seven Nusical Spillers, all big-time performers The chorus girls were trained to the minute and contributed to the success of this most pleasing program. There was not a lag in the whole performance, which went off to the full satisfaction of the audience. Will Voderys Plantation Orchestra furnished the music. The Tasmania Duo and the Plantation Quartet were among the pleasing numbers. The company is now playing at the Lafayette its second week and it should be seen by all those who love anny music and artistic dancing. The show is a real blues chaser and well deserving of the splendid patronage it is receiving When we find McKay injecting certain viewpoints in poems where they are least expected to be found and where we are almost tempted to say they do not belong, we are compelled to take exception to Eastman's estimate. McKay writes some splendid poems without propaganda, but he is essentially at present a propaganda poet, and some of his poetry will stand the same danger of not attaining overlasting fame as some of the poems of John Greenleaf Whittier written during slavery. Changed conditions may bring about a changed interest in some of his poems. Yet it can not be denied that for the present they serve a splendid purpose. Dunbar is yet the greatest Negro poet produced, and his greatness, contrary to public opinion, does not rest altogether upon the poems he has written in Negro dialect. Dunbar's best poems were written in choice English as many of the prominent critics will attest, and one of the sad disappointments of his life was because of the fact that he was not taken seriously by publishers when he attempted these poems in King's English. William Stanley Braithwaite and Claude McKay are often spoken of as the greatest living Negro poets. Braithwaite, because of his anthologies and his connection with a great white daily and because he does not in his poems indicate his racial extraction, is taken by many, who do not know him personally, to be a white man. McKay, though writing for a great white magazine, lets you know at once what race he belongs to. Of these two poets McKay holds the greater place in the hearts of the Negroes who have read both poets. But it cannot be expected that McKay would at this time replace Braithwaite in the affections of the white people. Because Braithwaite has become so Caucasianized in his writings, that he has lost his racial identity entirely. If he ever had any, and the white people claim him as their own, let his "House of the Falling Leaves" has a universal appeal and is good poetry. Both Braithwaite and McKay have many years, before them, and it is hoped that "Ere sleep comes down to soothe their weary eyes" they will have reached that stage of efficiency as poets rivalling, if not excelling, that of Paul Lawrence Dunbar whose anniversary we celebrate this week. coute attacks of passive congestion in consequence of heart or liver disease. The mucous membrane is pigmented and in the early stages usually thickened from proliferation of the fixed connective tissue cells. In the later stages atrophy may ensue from distraction of the glands and shrinking of the stroma. Symptoms—The chief symptoms are slight fever, with its attending phenomena, colicky pain, rumbling noises and frequent thin, watery stools, of a greenish color, offensive and containing undigested food. The attack usually lasts from a few days to a week. Chronic enteritis is manifested by frequent liquid stools, which vary in color and character according to the seat of catarrh; colicky pain, impaired nutrition and anemia. Preventive Measures—My advice to mothers during the summer is to prevent their children from eating too much green fruit, drinking too much ice water, lemonade and ice cream; see to it that all green vegetables be wall cooked. Should an attack come on, take a large dose of epsom salta. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 WIFE OF EXILED EGYPTIAN WILL FIGHT FOR HUSBAND'S FREEDOM WIFE OF EXILED EGYPTIAN WILL FIGHT FOR HUSBAND'S FREEDOM FOOTPRINT OF ADAM ON ROCK OF MOUNTAIN Peak So Steep It Must Be Climbed With Chain Fastened to the Drowsing in the Indian Ocean and about three times as large, the State of New Jersey, lies the beautiful tropical island of Ceylon, an island of Asia, known as far back as the time of the ancient Greeks and Romans, but conquered by Great Britain in 1796, and now one of her colonies, ruled by a governor chosen by the Crown. Its main feature the island of Lilian, but in its jungles today wild elephants live and roam at will. One of its mountains is called Adam Peak, from an old tradition of the Mohammedans, who believe that a great footprint on a rock at the summit of the mountain was made by Adam when he was driven from the Garden of Eden. This mountain is more than a mile high, is conical in shape and so steep that it has to be climbed by means of a chain which is fastened to the summit. One would think that being ac steep it was not often climbed, but two factions make it a shrine, and every year hundreds of pilgrims venture the steep ascent to see the holy footprint in the great rock. UNIVERSAL AFRICAN BLACK CROSS NURSES CHILD WEL- FARE DEPARTMENT By CLARA MORGAN, R. N. Questions of general interest on the care and feeding of infants and children will be answered in this column. Address Child Welfare Department; Negro World, 54-56 West 135th Street, New York, N. Y. In preparing the baby's food all feeding bottles should be sterilized by boiling Hands, tables and all utensils used should be scupulously clean, all water used for preparing the food should be boiled. The number of feedings necessary for the baby in twenty-four (24) hours should be prepared at one time. The amount needed for each feeding is put in a separate bottle, bottles are then stopped with cotton, placed in a stand with separate compartment for each bottle and put in the icebox it practicable, keep on a shelf by itself. To prepare the bottle at feeding time it should be taken from the icebox and warmed by standing in very warm water, which must be deep enough to cover the milk in the bottle, shake it well and adjust the nipple. Do not put the nipple in the mouth to determine whether the contents of the bottle are warm enough. A few drops may be poured through the nipple on the back of the hand, where it should feel warm but never hot, or before the nipple is adjusted a little may be poured out in a spoon and tested. Always remember to shake the bottle thoroughly after it taken from the warm water.

This was the dramatic statement made by Madame Zaghloul, wife of the excited liberal leader of Egypt. The interview was granted the International News Service on one of the Ramadan nights. Ramadan is the Moslem month during which all Mohammedans fast from morning until night. At sunset they break their fast and eat and drink with revelry. Mma. Zaghloul was receiving her night receptions when she met the writer. As the correspondent was of her own sex, Mma. Zaghloul dropped the veil which usually curtains her face. Sees Nation's Triumphs Giving a graphic description of the manner in which her husband was spirited away into exile, Mme. Zaghoul declares that she feels that the movement for his return from exile will eventually prevail. "It is quite natural that the Egyptian nation should claim by every peaceful means the return of their father and should not cease to protest against his exile," she said. "Ultimately the nation, I am convinced, shall triumph." Though she had requested that she be permitted to accompany her husband into exile, she was refused, and Mme. Zaghoul stated that for days she waited for the desired permission to be granted. Then one day, she declared, "a sudden inspiration came to me—You must not leave the country; your first duty is to remain and fight for the cause of independence like your husband." Believes in Liberty Questioned concerning the present situation in Egypt, Mms. Zaghoul said: "I cannot understand a so-called independence which keeps the land under marital law. The liberty of the press is an empty word. "I am of the opinion, as all the nation is that the framing of the constitution ought to have been entrusted to a national assembly, and not to a government. In all civilized countries national assemblies are convoked to TO A WINSOME MATRON I dreamt I had the magic power To travel o'er the Past, And that I'd lingered many an hour To see thee as thou wast, When, under Mischief's merry rule, A winsome, sportive girl at school.

KOBAN LEKYL termined to continue to ignore (until near election day) the more than 125,000 Afro-American voters in this State. Apparently they seem to think, he says, that the Negro is entitled to no consideration until after all the nominations are made from among white aspirants, and the demand for black votes becomes acute. The above statement by Mr Smith is quite true as to conditions in other states. And, from all indications, two years from now it will be a common thing to see Negro candidates for high offices in nearly all the States, as a protest against just such treatment as Mr Smith mentions in his statement We congratulate Harry C. Smith upon his effort to become the chief executive of the Buckeye State. We hope he will receive the nomination and election—St Louis Argus. CHINESE COMPASS HAS NEVER CHANGED (From the North China Herald) In the reign of the Chinese Emperor, Ho Aug Tl. in 2523 B. C., a certain celestial discovered that if a narrow splinter of loadstone, or natural magnetic iron ore, found in Asia Minor, was placed upon a piece of wood and the latter allowed to float in a bowl of water, the iron would invariably point in a north and south direction. This crude device was improved by the addition of a circular wooden card on which 24 rays were drawn. Each one of these lines was given a name and the whole thing was called the "tingnanching," which is the Chinese word for compass. The south point of the circle was dignified with a distinguishing mark, in the same manner as other nations today indicate the north point of their compasses by a fleur de lis or an arrow. The Chinese compass of the present day shows only the 24 points given to it 5,000 years ago. YPTIAN WILL USBAND'S FREEDOM form a national constitution.

"JUST A BLACK MAN" SAVES WOMAN; HERO REVEALED AS TUSKEGEE HEAD When the lights in the Fifth avenue towers stopped traffic at 11:15 o'clock yesterday morning pedestrians in 24th street started to rush across the avenue. A taxicab whirled around the corner, foot traffic stamped in its effort to escape and horror struck the scores who saw a woman dodge from in front of the wheels, collide with a man in the crowd and 'abound directly at the car. Many turned away to avoid the sight of a fatality. The man shot out an arm, grasped the woman and planted her feet on the sidewalk. She stammered her thanks, looked up and saw that her rescuer was a Negro. Then she was lost in the crowd. The policeman at the corner saw the act and realised that that Negro had risked his life to save the woman. He tapped the man on the shoulder and asked his name. "Why," asked the man, "are you going to arrest me?" "No," replied the officer, "but that was a brave act and I want to report it." "All right, then; just say a black man did it." was the quick answer, and the Negro want about his business. A reporter for the World got his name but not from the Negro. He followed him to a hotel, learned that this rarely modest American was Dr. Robert Russa Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, successor to Booker T. Washington, major in the American Army, who led his people to France and, rendered notable service to his country, harrow in figure and conduct, but in his own estimate of his service "just a black man."—The New York World. Weekly Sermon Weekly Sermon PIMPLES ECZEMA Subject "Five Things God Cannot Do." We are so accustomed to think of God in terms of the positive it is difficult for us to apply terms of negation to the action of Him. But in spite of the fact that we have been taught that all things are possible with God, the truth remains that there are some things which God has not the ability to do. Let me show that the word of God avers that there are somethinghs He cannot do. "The Lord God is a Sun." and He circumcises His own orn. According to revelation some things he cannot do. God's inability is moral. In the material world he can do everything; in the moral and spiritual world God is confronted with glorious impossibilities. This principle is at work in the lives of good men Men who bear the image of God. There are certain things they cannot do. They have reborn in them the spiritual ability of God as well as the inability of God. 1 "God cannot countenance sin." Hab. 1 13, "Thou canst not look on iniquity." The sin here specially referred to is the injustice toward Gods people. God in his purity cannot look upon sin with favor. He cannot condone it in any life, be that life of high or low estate. A God lentent to sin would be a perpetual menace to His world. God's hate of sin is the necessary consequence of His love of good. If God is light he must of necessity be a consuming fire Hell is therefore in the heart of God. A grace of His magnetic eyes sends home the flaming conviction of wrong in the life of men, and those who are thoughtful understand His look and accept His love. The Great Father's children have turned out badly. Grieved love divine mourns over an erring world. God intended that man should march on to victory without the slightest impeded progress, but man through choice selected the rigorous way. Let us emulate God's inability to countenance sin. Let us hate sin, even our pleasant sin. We may deem it pleasant, but God cannot look on it. Hell is the essential corollary of sin. Hell is the concrete expression of God's estimate of sin. Hell means the covered place, and God thrusts the finally impenetrable into hell because he cannot look on sin. There must be a hell if God cannot behold iniquity. It is the function of the Holy Ghost to convince men of sin and to bring us all to God's standpoint; then we, too, shall be unable to look on iniquity God hasten the time. 2. "God cannot endure unreal ceremonialism." Isa. 1.12 God says of certain religious observances, intermixed with iniquity, "I cannot away with them" Cheyne renders it "I cannot bear them" The speaker's commentary renders it — I cannot endure them" God cannot bear even a solemn meeting if it is dissociated from truth purity and zeal What a lesson for these times! We have form and ceremony on every hand. Yet in the New Testament there is only one rule to be adhered to, and that is "Let everything be done decently and in order" Even with the simplest ceremony you may affront God by unreality Sin may stain any ritual, elaborate or elementary, then it becomes unreal, and God says, I cannot bear it Put your soul into your orchid Let your rites express innermost feeling and convictions and aspirations. III "God cannot be inconsistent with Himself" Tim 2.13. "He cannot deny Himself" It would be inconsistent with God a character for Him to treat the faithful and unfaithful alike in this world or in any other. He cannot deny Himself eloquently urges upon us the importance of our attitude toward God. He is evermore true to righteousness, whatever we are. What a stimulating truth this for faithful souls! We may be inconsistent. We may believe not. But God can never be inconsistent. Take comfort in the thought that we have a God. Who is always consistent, in whom we can trust. IV. "God cannot consider His own comfort." Matt. 27.42. "He saved others, Himself He cannot save." Those who uttered these words spoke sneeringly. It was an unwitting tribute to the self-abnegation of God. It was spoken of Christ as He hung on the atoning cross; but in this, as in everything, Christ is the reveler of God. "I and my Father are one," said He. And They are one in this. He saved others, Himself He cannot save." Grandly true. None who saves others can save himself. If a man aims at self-preservation he cannot deliver another. Self must go down before others. When you are spent in the service of others you are left without energy; but those you have served are benefited. What a wonderful God! The revealed history of God is a succession of self-emptying. Was not the act of creation a self-sacrifice to God? Why did he need an order of dependent beings? Providence is a perpetual self-sacrifice on God's part. Think of the vigilant labor of God in behalf of the millions of His universe. But what did our redemption mean? The self-immolation of God. Who knows what Christ's incarnation and atonement cost the Father? We only know something of what it cost the Son. God through all the ages has been bent on saving others and has been unable to save Himself. We should count it a joy to serve such a God as this. What an inspiration to serve such a God! How we ought to love him and count all things lost to serve him! God acts as if he was self-leas. The true Christian should never consider his own comfort. Great men seek to please others by giving out the truth, but never seek to please themselves. Garibaldi once said to a friend, "Thoughts of self love never troubled me. How many of us are like him?" Refuse to serve self Get a taste of real joy in this life by serving others. Many of us will have splendid crowns in glory because of our unremitting self-sacrificing lives. Dr Drods says, Selfishness in its last analysis is sin. This is true. Pray earnestly 'Oh, hide this self from me Paul admonishes us that Christ laid down his life for us and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren! God cannot deviate from the truth.' Titus 1 2 'God who cannot lie' Men can and do lie. But God cannot. The idea of Gods inability to depart from the truth runs through the Bible Balaam said. God is not a man that he should lie etc. Samuel said. The strength of Israel will not lie. The writer of the Epistles of the Hebrews says God has so conditioned himself that it is impossible for God to lie. What a blessed inability God trusting ones have always found him never failing. We may build on Gods word as men build on solid rock. Blessed are all, they put the r trust in Him. God's verity makes doubt madness and faith the highest reason. Man can do what his creator cannot. Let us long and sigh to be like God in this one inability. The world needs less liars. God cannot lie. Oh, test Him he who labor and are heavy laden with your sins. Weese puts it thus, 'Come for the pardon God cannot deny. "Oh, to be morally unable to do the things God cannot do' Let us be followers of God as dear children." We often sigh for God's ability Let us long yet more for His glorious inability. You wish you could do what God can do' Desire fervently to be unable to do what God cannot do.

We 'Marcans hew always discriminated against the Jew as much as we dared to an' he has always come back at us with his money, hitting us where we least expected to be hit, and forcing us to compromise with him on his own terms. Now if the darkies emulate the Jews by acquiring education and wealth with which to fight more effectively race discrimination, we shall hew a problem to confront within the next quarter of a century that will require all the scientific education possible to attain, to meet the combat the attempts of these alien and non-assimilable elements to force themselves into warp and woof of Anglo-Saxon civilization."

The law of the Survival of the Fittes' is universal and it takes in all races, those that are strong enough to rule are going to rule no matter whether they is darkies, Jues or Chinamon. If they possesses the force and power of leadership, you may always look for 'em at the head of the procession. We can't localize a law that is made for the benefit of all peoples and to be used as the test to determine their fitness for rulership and leadership. The fittes' only survive.

GREATEST MASS MOVEMENT OF NEGROES IN THE WORLD Liberty Hall, Sunday Night, July 2, 1922.—Time and again have the followers and friends of the Universal Negro Improvement Association demonstrated that nothing shall stand in their way or distract them from the cause to which they have pledged themselves. This spirit of determination was strikingly exemplified tonight, for despite the intensely hot and humid weather that prevailed today which drove thousands to seek relief at the seashores and other places of amusement, there was no appreciable diminution in the size of the audience nor was there any lack of enthusiasm, every one as usual taking a lively interest in the proceedings and giving visible expression of approval and satisfaction with those who are guiding the deathes of the movement. An outstanding feature of the meeting tonight was the liberal and generous contribution made to the offering on the appeal of Hon Rudolph Smith, leader of the Eastern Province of the West Indies, and Dr W. W. Lucas, a visitor who has a peculiar knack of saying things in a manner that touches and produces results. The offering far exceeded that of many previous Sundays and gave proof of the fact that the followers of the movement realize that in order to put over the gigantic program of the association it is necessary to back up their enthusiasm with dollars and cents in the same way that other races have done with the organizations that are working in their interest Hon G E. Carter, special assistant to the President General, presided over the meeting and introduced as the speakers for the evening Mr C B. Curley, representing the Harlem Economic Association, Hon Rudolph Smith, who has just returned from his itinerary which took him through New York State as far as Buffalo and also certain parts of New Jersey, and Dr W W Lucas, a visitor Mr Smith gave a brief resume of the work which he had accomplished and in doing so alluded to the counter-propaganda which he had encountered during his tour. You here in Liberty Hall, he said, do not realize the counter-propaganda that is applied to defeat the program of this organization. He said that the enemies of the movement were using the setback to the Black Star Line as a means of discouraging the members of the association but he was able to successfully frustrate their efforts with the result that in the city of Buffalo where he found a membership of 800, he left there with the membership around 1,000, who sent greetings to the parent body and Liberty Hall. In Atlantic City Mr Smith also reported (available results) He was able to win the favor of the white press, who published lengthy articles in their newspapers, giving their indulgence of the movement. "I would like to say," added Mr Smith that the white people there have indored this movement more than many of our own people, and they have said through the press that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other various organizations of Negroes should come together and make this Universal Negro Improvement Association one giant program for the self-defeatation of Negroes. In conclusion he said the movement was making rapid progress and there is nothing in the world that can defeat it. Mr Curley gave a practical talk on economics and made some very favorable statements that made a very favorable impression. He characterized Hon Marcus Garvey as the foremost organizer of Negroes that ever lived and to be a wonderful organizer in times like these, he said was a tribute that must go down to man's credit in history. He emphasized the necessity of Negroes making themselves economically independent for said he, our salvation lies along two channels—one of them is in the field of economics. His advice in summary was to save and own some hung and then we would be in a position to successfully fight the things that are adverse to our interests. In conclusion he reminded his hearers that the Universal Negro Improvement Association was a big movement that could not be put over by one man. The Hon Marcus Garvey, he said, cannot do it himself, you have got to work with him, you have got to form little groups around your own fires.de, you have got to get your heads together to turn to the financial pages of the newspapers and learn how the white people get their money.

So while you are putting over this big movement you want to remember that Hon. Marcus Garvey cannot do it by himself. You have got to work Addressed by Prof. and Madame Alexander Greetings: I have, pursuant to an order of the president, to notify you that Professor and Madame Alexander were in our midst for quite a while; also Mr White. We find them strictly patriotic to the cause pertaining to the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. It would be like attempting to paint the rainbow to say all we know of them for their short stay here, and we trust they will carry some pleasant remembrances to their home, as they have left some strong impressions on us that will always cause us to grieve over their absence. We have had the privilege of having them for three successive meetings, in which the professor illustrated to us the different things he experienced in the world's war. We can also assure you that we do believe he will be one of our great heroes and victors of the U. N. I. A., and we can also see that he is one who is always prepared to meet the enemies. This second and third evening spent in our Liberty Hall brought tears from the eyes of the members, and his special words were preparedness and how we are to get prepared. Afterwards we were privileged in hearing Madame Alexander, who pleaded to the members to stick to the society and its cause, and in pleading begged of the non-members to become members, and in her beseaching voice gained the victory of twenty-one members during her stay among us. Also her brother, Mr. White, is always willing to help us in encouraging the members. At the eve of their departure a farwell concert was given in behalf of our worthy visitors, wishing them God-speed. We beg to remain, youre for racial unlift. Association was the greatest mass movement of Negroes in the world. Among the announcements read by Mr. H. Vinton Plummer, publicity agent of the association, was that of the special monthly membership meeting on July 10 and the appearance of Hon Marcus Garvey at Liberty Hall on July 4. This latter announcement was the occasion for an outburst of applause, for His Excellency is returning from a triumphal tour through a large number of States, and has met some startling incidents which he will disclose to the membership, chief of which is his interview with the Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, which has been puzzling the white press as to the nature of the interview The Ladies Committee under the direction of Mrs. Sharperson Young, which has charge of making arrangements for the Fashion Show to be held during the convention, was introduced from the platform, and Mrs Young gave an outline of what the show would be like, and urged all who could to help in making this feature of the convention a success. Before the meeting closed the chairman read the following telegram from the American leader Hon. J. W. H Eason "Chairman, Liberty Hall" Charleston looks to Liberty Hall for inspiration. Thousands send greetings "Much applause greeted the telegram, and this brought the meeting to a close Following are the speeches MR. C. B. CURLEY SPEAKA Mr Benjamin Curley, representing the Harlem Economic Association, was the first speaker and said he was working with a little movement which is trying to supplement what the Universal Negro Improvement Association was doing "I always like," he said, "to work with any other group that is working in the same direction, because there is enough for all of us to accomplish. It seems to me that one of the big things that we have to do at present is to take care of the younger generation that is coming along. We often complain because there are certain people among us who do not like their color and I have just been wondering whether we have been doing anything to make them like their color. The reason some people do not like to be black is because we never associate anything good with black, you always talk about white, and one thing I noticed when a boy attending Sunday school that seldom was there any picture in any of the religious books of dark people. I think they have the sunchuck shown as a black man. I certainly do believe that in those times there existed some intelligent black people as well as white people. Somewhere in history those things have been and somebody has been cruel enough to let those things get away from us and they have not been handed down to us. Church Leaflets Should Have Negro "I am trying to get as many people as I can to bring pressure to bear upon the Negro Church to see if we cannot get them to put in the leaflets they hand out to us every Sunday just a few words of Negro history. (Applause.) We want to let the colored boys and girls know that there were some Negroes at some time in the past some where in the world who did something and then there will be an inspiration given them. Propaganda Not Enough Used Propaganda Not Enough Used I have said that just to be able to get down to my main subject—the Harlem Economic Association has a little job to put over. The merchants have been suffering, as you know, for the reason we have not got together as a people, and we are simply trying to start a little propaganda. Propaganda is a wonderful thing, but we have not used it enough. The only person whom I know that has used propaganda effectively is Hon. Marcus Garvey. (Applause.) I consider Mr Garvey the foremost organizer of Negroes that ever lived, and I count it a very great privilege to have known him. To be a wonderful organizer in times like these is a tribute that must go down to a man in history I am glad to come representing this association, because we are trying to get Negroes to realize that for the time being, at least, their salvation lies along two channels—one of them is in the field of economics. It is said that when the Southern Railway wanted to run a two-track system in the South it needed $80,000,000 to be able to put it over. They approached the banks for a loan of that amount and it was decided to let them have it. It has further developed that $80,000,000 of that amount which they secured from the banks belonged to Negroes in the South, yet that money was loaned to the officials of the Southern Railway to put in a two-track system. Suppose that $80,000,000 had been in a Negro bank. When white people get ready to get money they do not quibble over where they get it from, they will borrow money from them and pay you interest in the same way they do to others of their race. Suppose that $20,000,000 had been in a Negro bank and they had approached them for it. I suppose the bankers would have said, "Yes, we will let you have it, but we want to ask a question or two—we want to know what kind of accommodation you are going to give Negroes on the double track system; if you are going to Jim-crow them we won't let you have it; but if you are going to give equal accommodations we will consider it." You see the power of the dollar! Here in Harlem we have 165,000 Negroes and we do not control anything hardy. Negro merchants are being closed out day by day. The chain stores and chain restaurants and chain groceries and chain bakeries are running us out as fast as they can and throwing our people out of employment. The individual store cannot compete with the chain store, and I have again to congratulate you on the system of stores you are inaugurating and I THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 So Says Dr. W. W. Lucas in Speech at Liberty Hall—Large Attendance Despite Intensely Hot Weather—ENTHUSIASM Runs High and Large Contributions Made to Support and Carry on the Work HON. RUDOLPH SMITH RETURNS FROM ITINERARY THROUGH NEW YORK STATE —BRINGS ENCOURAGING REPORTS OF INCREASED MEMBERSHIP—COUNTER PROPAGANDISTS HARD AT WORK TO DEFEAT U. N. I. A—ENEMIES ARE, HOWEVER, CONQUERED AT HIS HANDS Mr. C. B. Curley, of Harlem Economic Association, Delivers Practical Talk on Economics—Characterizes Hon. Marcus Garvey as Foremost Organizer of Negroes That Ever Lived—A Tribute That Must Go Down to His Credit in History—Urges Members to Stand Back of Their Leader as the Movement Cannot Be Put Over by Him Alone urge the Negro public to support these stores, but see to it that they are properly managed so that you can buy by the carload in the same way as the A. & P stores and Andrew Davey, and others. You must give support to your concerns that are operating, for if you do not come to their assistance quickly they will have to go to the wall. The good ones ought to be maintained, those that are not operating properly ought to go to the wall. I do not ask you to support any enterprise that does not merit support. Seek out, look out, ask some one who knows to find out the merits and if it is worth patronizing, patronize it, for it means much to you. Start Out and Own Something I want to urge everybody to start out to own something. You cannot get anywhere renting. You will find that there are a great lot of problems that you will be confronted with and that you will master when you own something. Those of you who rent have no idea how much you can learn from owning a house, because when you own a house you have got to get the taxes straight, you have got to learn how to take care of the water bill and the electric light and gas bills, you have got to know how to take care of the interest on the mortgage, you have got to learn about signing and endorsing notes. You have got to know all of that when you own property. And, further than that, have you ever noticed that where a person rents a house and has children in that house, those children usually break the window panes? If you own that house you are going to protect the windows, because you know that when they are broken you have to replace them. If you own a house you begin to instruct your children that they can not break the window panes because you will have to put them in, and your children will thus learn to take care of property, and thus we will be able to obviate the theory that colored property depreciates and is a bad risk. Movement Cannot Be Put Over by One Man THE U. N. L. A. IN CENTRAL DELICIAS, ORIENTE DE CUBA --- STANLEY C. ARCHER, General Secretary; WALTER A. FORD, Executive Secretary; VIVIANA SAMUELS, Lady Secretary; PRESTON STRICKLAND, Pierceland with him, you have got to form your little groups around your own fireside, you have got to get your heads together. Turn to the financial pages of the newspapers. Study about stocks and bonds, learn to know how the white people get their money. They get it from stocks and bonds, and won't tell you anything about it. They only tell you about the kind of religion that will keep you quiet. They tell you about guarding your health, because if you keep well you cannot contaminate them. They tell you about industrial schools because industrial workers make good workers for them in their factories. They tell you about religion because it keeps you looking on high, but they have never told you anything about making and saving the dollar. This you must learn for yourselves, and in doing so you must also learn about the running of politics. You cannot put over this movement unless you learn politics and learn the dollar (Applause).

You here in Liberty Hall do not realize the counter propaganda that is applied to defeat the program of this organization. I have seen circulates distributed from many parts as well as letters sent to some of our members in which much was said against the Black Star Line in order to defeat the principles of the organization. Knowing my race as I do from careful study I had to apply my psychology to the best of my ability and I made it plain to the people that the Universal Negro Improvement Association had nothing whatsoever to do with the Black Star Line funds and that this organization is run by the support of its financial members who pay their dues and assessment taxes and so forth so that the work could be carried on. I explained that the Black Star Line and the Negro Factories Corporation were both subsidiaries that are both helping to carry out this wonderful program in creating a spirit of self-determination.

When I received my itinerary from His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey, I proceeded to Camden, N. J. and found just a handful of members there; but I left Camden with a membership of over 800 and a challenge to debate with any one on the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement A-sociation. Although I gave the challenge some time before I left Camden, up to now no one had come forward to accept it. I had also the pleasure of visiting the Atlantic City division and there I met some of the strong opponents of the association. Through my efforts there the white press became very favorably impressed about the movement and carried articles about it nearly every day. I would like to say that the white people there have endured this movement more than many of our own people, and they have said through the press that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the other various organizations of Negroes should so: together and make this Universal Negro Improvement Association one giant program for the self-determination of Negroes. Let me say this, friends, that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is making rapid progress and there is nothing in the world that can defeat this program. The Atlantic City Division where I spoke last night has something like 1,000 members. We have defeated the counter-propaganda of the enemies and have the press of the city in our favor. (Applause.) THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.I.A. DIVISIONS JAMAICA COMMISSIONER PUTS DIVISION ON ITS FEET W. F. Bailey, Founder of Jamaica Union of Teachers, Elected President—Commissioner O'Meally Doing Splendid Work BY BRUCE A FORBES KINGBTON Jamaica B W I June 39.—For some time it looked as if the Kingston Division would come to grief owing to the dissatisfaction of the members in general, but the action of Commissioner O'Meally with his fearless method and unbiased actions has at last brought the long-looked-for peace which has been sought. In the name of the parent body Commissioner O'Meally took complete charge of the division after the resignation of all the officers and started to plan a new election, which was successfully carried through on Tuesday, June 13. The commissioner, having planned the nomination, impressed upon the minds of the members the importance of having none but active and financial members exercise the franchise, which action showed that the chief trouble makers were the members who did not intend to pay any dues and were the instigators of all the disturbances. list took a man of the bulldog tenacity of the commissioner to hold the division under the present conditions, and despite all the would-be trouble makers who threatened to break up the election unless their pet crooks hold office, all went as smoothly as a liner on the Atlantic on a calm day. The night of the election brought praises from all quarters of the community, the voting having been done by balloting with an uninterested party tallying the votes. The result of this gave to the division a president in the person of Mr. W. P. Bailey a man of wide influence in the community and the founder of the Jamaica Union of Teachers. Of the 74 votes cast, Mr. Bailey received 61. On Friday, the 10th, the new officers were installed, not in pump and splencher, but with the solemnity of men and women who have pledged their lives in the cause of racial upift and African freedom. The commissioner, in the chair, made one of his masterly addresses so eagerly sought after by the members. He appealed to the newly made officers in the name of the U. N. I. A. and the race to stand firm, fearing none but God. To the president he handed the gavel, appealing in the name of God and the U. N. I. A. to rule in the manner of a just and fearless man in the cause. At this stage the band of the organization rent the air with the Ethiopian national anthem and the new president took the chair. Refreshments were served in aid of the band fund during a short intermission, after which the president made a short address and brought the meeting to a close. The following is a resolution handed in at the close of the election in appreciation of the services rendered the division by the Hon. James Augustus O'Neally, High Commissioner: "KINGSTON, June 14, 1922. To the President, Officers and Members of the Kingston Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association; "As a member of this division I desire to express my appreciation of the able manner in which the Commissioner and Executive Secretary have conducted the affairs of the division during the difficult times through which we have just passed, and for the capable, fair and business manner in which the election was carried through. They but did their duty, it might be said, but every one will admit from personal experience that to do one's duty under unpleasant conditions is no easy matter. I am sure that every member present will agree with me in this, and therefore it gives me great pleasure to move the following resolution: That we, the members of the King- don Division of the U. N. L. A., desire to express our hearty thanks to the High Commissioner, Mr. Jas. A. W. McNeilly, and the Executive Secretary, Mr. Bruce Forbes, for the able manner in which the affairs of the organiza- tion was carried out during the time between the resignation and the re- duction of the executive officers of the division, also to express our high appreciation of the able and judicious manner in which the election was car- ried through. We also desire to call to the attentia- tion of the members that more respect should be shown to the officers than heri- gien, he is doing all the other divi- sion that when such as the commis- sion, executive secretary, president, the president, and others enter the hair, the members show respect by bringing their teeth. We will not only tend to despo- sure the existence of national dislocation of sec- tary offices, but will necessitate the establishment of a new beginning to the national government. We will also extend for the well being of the nation a special merit. SAYS BASUTO BOY FOUND DIAMOND, NOT ANGLO-SAXON President of Luderitz Division, South West Protectorate, Refutes Statements Made Regarding African Diamonds President and Commissioner replied in very baffling words The Kingston Division of the U N I A Possesses a Real Band Music charms the savage breast And with the advent of the band of the Kingston Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the fearless masterly and diplomatic actions of the Hon Jas O Mealy, High Commissioner of the Island of Jamaica, all bids fair for a grand and rolling time with a man like Mr W F Bailey, our newly elected President, and champion of the cause of Negro liberty. After months of longing and waiting the band has become an actual thing, rendering the sweet strains of music at our mass meetings. Too much praise cannot be given to Mr U A Loo Grand, treasurer of the division and chairman of the Band Committee. On Friday the 9th, the members were given the benefit of a band concert at the hall, the music being rendered by the band for two hours. The hall was packed to its utmost with hardly standing room every one anxious to be present on such an occasion. The chair was occupied by the Commissioner, who gave one of his short forceful addresses, at the same time encouraging the members of the band to continue and exhorting the members to give their support to make the band a lasting success. The program was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian national anthem. Editor The Negro World Will you kindly grant space in our journal, the mouthpiece of the oppressed millions of the Negro face, to correct a statement appearing in an article entitled "German Southwest Africa Yields Huge Diamond Crop," in your issue of March 11, 1922. So far as the yielding of diamonds is concerned the story is quite correct, for Southwest Africa is a paradise for all possessing the white paint of naturo, but further on in the narrative the writer states that it is an uninviting land. Far from it, Mr. Editor; for, as one that has been domiciled in the colony for the last thirteen years, I've witnessed the deportation system enforced by the Union authorities in order to expel the Germans, who shed a sea of tears on leaving Luderits for the Vaterland. But they are again pouring into the colony with all haste whenever opportunity offers, for the colony abounds in minerals of all kinds. Then, again, dealing with the third paragraph of the story about the Cape boy finding a diamond, you say that he had Dutch or British blood coursing through his veins. Such is far from being the case. It appears that your correspondent was bent on lauding anybody and everybody that has a yellow streak. Suffice to say, however, that the discoverer of the diamond was a Basuto by the name of Plat Liwala, a full-blooded native, and he turned it over to a Mr Stauch, who at the time was engaged in plate laying work and having the rank of sacmaster (l. e. chief plate layer), whose rank in the German colonial army is fieldbevel; that is sergeant major. Pete has since gone to the Union, where he engaged in mining diamonds at Kimberley, on the Barkley West diggings. He has since been hung for a murder committed while engaged in a robbing expedition. All that Pete received from Stauch for making him a millionaire was to be relieved of heavy labor and given lighter work to do. With what he saved out of his paltry wages he set out for the Kimberly diggings, where he paid the penalty of the law for murder. Speaking as one that has traveled extensively through the Protectorate, I can say that it is far from being an uninviting country, for the Southwest contains millions of acres of arable land suitable for producing such foodstuffs as incornia, cate, hay and vegetables of all descriptions in the Winnipeg district particularly, where can be found some of the finest ranching fields in the Falkland and native cattle raised to none on the continent, known to be the finest specimens of cattle for slaughtering purposes to be found anywhere. Bufted to say they just at the present time of State is being made in the seaport that be Willett Bay to meet old stock and cattle for the preservation of goods to be shipped to European ports.

A. She put a stress in the need of organizing the Black Tuesdays. In short her address were great. In table neat, and made it delivered. The Hon. Alden A. Iryan speaking lastly each night certainly had the sequence of saying his names. Regardless of the inconvenience of the weather the President, Mr. M. F. Drinkell, put forth every effort to make the meeting a success. The chaplain and other members of this division tendered untold service M. F. DRISKELL, President, MRS. CAROLINE WHITOUS, Secretary. E. DRISKELL POUDER, Reporter CAMBRIDGE NEWS The many friends and members of the Cambridge Division rejoiced when they learned that Mr Walter Barrow, one of their ardent and faithful workers, graduated with honors with the degree of M.D. Dr Barrow received the congratulations and felicitations of his many friends and relatives pleasantly. He assured all present that his eight years in college and in the study of medicine were spent solely to help suffering humanity and the people of his race. Dr Barrow has studied in three universities not only in America but abroad. He is well prepared to serve his race. MY FOUND NOT ANGLO-SAXON on, South West Protectorate, is Made Regarding Diamonds heritage of our narrative land heritage of our narrator a 'desert land' We would be more than thankful if the oppressors would evaluate this "desert land" today and leave it to its rightful owners, but such seems a dream of the past, for speaking as one that has lived in the City of Luderitz for the last thirteen years, when on arriving here in the latter part of 1909, when there was scarcely quarters in the city to house the Kaisers troops, and knowing that the Germans are adept on things military. First, if you please, I have lived to see a township spring up out of a desert of sand and stones into a prosperous millionaire's centre, with some of the latest architectural structures up to 1914, when the European war put a stop to everything progressive. One more word Mr Editor relative to the Cape boy finding the first diamond, on account of his enforced color, which I deem is unfortunate for him, when knowing that his progenitors from the father's side simply look down on him as the lowest type of humanity, suffice it to say that we have Hottentots here who possess just as high a tint of color as any European or Caucasian race, cause of same suffice it to say, will be left into the hands of the bacteriologist. Thanking you for space of same. Yours fraternally. PRES. FITZ H. HEADLY. Universal Negro Improvement Association and A. C. League. Ludoritz Division, Chartered No. 294, South West Protectorate.

Writer Makes Timely Suggestion ADDRESSES THE COLLIER W. VA. U. N. J. A J J Johnson, president of the Collier, W Va division, No. 219, U N I A asked permission to hold our annual celebration in the hall at Logrow which was granted, and the time was set for 5 p.m May 30 We invited many of the white citizens to join with us and had bills printed to that effect. Mr Robert J Lovejoy (white) was slated to deliver the address of welcome the response to be made by Rev W D Kettt. The meeting was opened promptly at Vankok by the president who called for the singing of From greenlands by Mountain Rev Kettt chapman offered prayer Owing to the nature of Tsinghua in which attaches Brother W T Martin, master of ceremonies, requested Rev Kettt to deliver the address of welcome, which he did in an appropriate manner taking his seat amid great applause. The choir sang a very sweet anthem Little Miss Ether Johnson, daughter of the president spoke on Marcus Garvey as a Hero Next on the program was a duet by two gentlemen with Mrs. Borders at the organ. Their selection was an old plantation melody Rev E D W Calhoon was then introduced, and delivered a brief but fitting talk He certainly knows how to interest his congregation who expressed their approbation with shouts of applause The president then introduced the Rev Jacob Slappy, a member and agent of the parent body. As he rose he was cheered and applauded voriferously. Rev Slappy said he had heard many kind things spoken of this division, and therefore he was glad to meet the members of it. He informed his hearers that the people of Wheeling, W Va, were expecting him to be with them, but as Collier division had previously arranged with him he would be compelled to make other arrangements with the Wheeling organization. He was a little disappointed at the absence of the whites as he had heard there would be many present to hear him. He said he was always looking for the other fellows. After speaking for some time on the advantages of being good and moral he carried his audience along with him with an amazingly intelligent address. He concluded by telling us of the natives in Africa and their habits, and finished by extending an invitation to new members. One joined Benediction by Rev Calhoun. In the June 17 issue of The Negro World the Hon Marcus Garvey voiced many ideas that should go home to the heart of every Negro. The wholesale murders in Africa, which occur under foreign rule without a word of protest from the leading dailies, show plainly that the Negro aino must work out his own destiny. Sympathy might be expressed, but denunciation never. For it is only by the subjection of the weak that the strong can claim a higher civilization That technical skill is needed in Africa for the expulsion of the alien and for the development of the natural resources of the continent is true. And it strikes me most impressively that the U. N. I. A. should take the load in advocating a greater appreciation for higher technical knowledge among our colored boys and girls. But the task cannot be accomplished by appeal only. it must be met with sacrifice, denial and perseverance. I know of no better way for the U. N. I. A. to take such a lead than by establishing a scholarship fund for technical appreciation. If one Negro a year is sent to a recognized technical school the organization would be building an imperishable monument to its credit. It can be readily seen that no matter how keen the desire, how burning the anxiety in the breast of the individual there are many financial difficulties to prevent its attainment. But the individual with an organization behind him—one supported by the masses, one trying to develop him—to the full status of manhood in all its aspects—will undoubtedly do good work. From the tremendous growth of the organization in the last few years I look forward to a day when such a system would be instituted. But its advance has been somewhat slow. Probably there are good reasons. However, it is not too late. Japan, for example, has sent her sons to the West to study, assimilate and digest Western ideas and culture. Such a policy the country pursued for many years without any needless propaganda of its real intentions. Had it advertised broadcast its plans insurmountable barriers would have been thrown in the way of Japanese students. Today what is the result? Japan stands a veritable pillar of strength, using all the cunning, intrigue and secrecy the West has taught her. Secrecy is one of the great weapons that the white man uses in putting NOTICE TO STOCKHOLDERS The annual stockholders' meeting of the Pure Aerated Water Co.

The President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, on his tour of the nation, has been approached by hundreds of loyal members and well wishers of the Association in complaints against the treatment they have received from several of the various departments of the Organization at headquarters, and from individual officers and employees at headquarters, as also against the conduct of certain Executive Officers whilst on the field. The President-General is grieved of the many complaints and hereby begs to announce that a Complaint Department is now established and attached to his office. All persons having complaints to make against any department, officer or employee of the Organization will please write to P. S.-If you love the Organization and desire to see it improve its service to the race, then you will not fail to report any irregularity on the part of officials, officers and employees of the Organization, caring not whom the person be if he or she has done anything improper or unconstitutional, report it.

JATIBONICO, CUB June 12, 1922 — To the officers and members of the U N I A. Jatibonico Division No 468 Greeting — It is with sorrow that I have to write you, rather than appearing in person, to let you know of my departure from Jatibonico. You will realize how impossible it is to come and express my admission to you the officers and members of the Jatibonico Division and especially our Treasurer, Mrs. Harah Mills. Owing to my ill health I cannot not remember that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and that is how I feel toward the people of Jatibonico and most particularly those of you who are members of this Division. It is with reluctance that I am forced to resign my position as Lady President so as to make way for Mrs. Elfrida Smith, who at this time is the Lady Vice-President of the Division and will be promoted to the honored position of Lady President. So remember that the strain of my departure lies in the fact of not enjoying good health. Although I am gone, my heart will be ever burning for you and this division. May you keep up the good work you have started and ever continue to hold the banner up the tricolor of the Red, the Black and the Green, and never let it know submission, surrender or defeat. I regret very much that the lady members of the division did not meet at our residence to discuss certain matters which are so important, after I had asked them to attend a special meeting which was to have convened during the last week of my stay here among them, but nevertheless I am making a special appeal to them for their steady support and unfinishing energy to make this division what it can be what it ought to be and what it will be if supported by all its members and especially the Ladies of this division. One of the chief things that I aim to bring before the entire membership is the vacancy made by my departure, that of Lady Vice-President and I herewith submit for your consideration and approval Mrs B Lewis and Mrs E. Denton. You are asked to select one of these two ladies for the position of Lady Vice-President. In conclusion I will ask that the God over his plans. Study him personally, in groups, nationally, and even internationally, and you will find it to be true. On the other hand we lost from the very start on account of too much publicity. Could the eye of a black man at this moment see through the hidden documents of the dominant power it would probably shock all our minor capabilities to see what methods are being suggested thought and planned for Negro extermination. The U. N. I. A., then, in its activities for Negro emancipation must pursue the same paths that made the other nations great. Whether it be a scholarship fund for greater appreciation for technical knowledge or a commission to investigate African conditions only the general ideas should be given and not the fundamental intent. By giving the facts many barriers can be created to present any accomplishment. Always remember that accrety with other things made the white man great. Secrets with other things is bringing him to his destruction. HON. ARDEN BRYAN AND MME. ROBERSON VISIT FITZGERALD DIV. Enthusiastic Throng Attends Three Meetings of the Division There By TERRABEE VARNADOL FITZGERALD D.C. June 12, 1927 We, the members of the Fitzgerald Division, are marching unward to liberty and our motto is. We Can and We Shall." Fitzgerald feels highly honored to have with it two of America's best leaders On Wednesday evening at 8:30 o'clock, at the Mount Olive Baptist Church, Rev T H Davis, our president, made a brief and substantial introduction of the speaker for the evening in the person of Mme Roberson Mme Roberson gave as her subject "Time." In her flight of oratory she brought out some very strong points, saying If all other races are interested in an organization, it is high time that the colored race be interested in an organization that is emancipating the Negro everywhere. On Thursday evening Hon Mr Bryan and Mme Roberson, accompanied by Misses T C Varnadol, Lillian and Eddy Mine Walker and Meara. Alphonso Jones and Herbert Bergs, went over and around the city sightseeing in Mr Riggs' Chandler, after which they were taken to the home of Miss Varnadol and served with three courses. Owing to the downpour of rain on Thursday night the crowd was slim, but, however, all enjoyed the lectures on Friday night, iron Brian, who is a very inspiring and able speaker spoke very emphatically on the subject of The Aims and Objects of the U N I A. The young man is a powerful logical speaker convergent indeed with his subject. He brought it us a practical of heaven and earth keep you together always and may. He watch between us until we shall have met here in Cuba or on the battlefields of Africa where we expect to nurse our soldier men when they shall have been fighting for the emancipation of this grand and noble race of ours and the liberation of our motherland Africa.

I. A. This is just a little less or more than the number of souls John the Baptist converted on his first day's mission when he began to preach and to baptize at Betharaba, beyond the River Jordan. He is one of those men who are rather famous in lecturing outside, and he can sometimes speak for two hours. Another incident worthy of mention is that he does not gain a member and leave him (or her) to perish, but he cares for them monthly by going around reminding them of their obligation to the cause, i.e., to pay their dues, etc This brother is always busy You can at times see him on the job in solemn communion with one who is not yet in the fold and he will continually spin his silken thread around such a one until he has caught him in his net, and then the next day he says 'Brother Secretary, here is a dollar Give me the properties on Mr or Miss So-and-So. He is proud of the cause for Africa's redemption and, most of all, Carvayism. On his forehead he carries his intention towards assisting the grand move He is termed "Napoleon," bearing in his eyes the determination of the Napoleon of old when he had begun his marching in 1800 to cross the Alps to gain Italy from the Austriana.

ORDER NO IMPROVEMENT ATION THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1822 La Ciudad Africana Tanger Como Punto Estratégico por La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra En la costa norte de Africa, a la entrada del estrecho de Gibraltar, esta la ciudad de Tanger, sobre la cual Mr. Lloyd George y M. Poncaré conferciaron en su reciente reunión de Londres. El destino de Tanger no es un problema que se presentara después de la guerra, porque es un antiguo conflicto, con sus origenes profundamente afrirmados en afiliaciones raciales y aspiraciones políticas. Fué más fácil dividir Marruecos en zonas y decidir sobre su administración que conveir sobre el dorino o el gobierno de esta sola ciudad. Carta Especificando Que America Es Un Pafs Exclusivamente Para Blancos—Superioridad Es Nuestro Lema, Declara Su Autor—Ciertos Directores de Nuestra Raza En Silencio—Nuestra Organización, Constituida Exclusivamente de Negros, Por Negros y Para Negros, Se Afianza En un Programa Que Resolverá el Problema Actual En Que Se Haya Envuelta Nuestra Raza La razon de ello es evidente Tanger por su posicion y sus defensas naturales y su espaciosa bahia domina la entrada del estrecho de Gibraltar y con ello la entrada del Mediterraneo por el Atlantico. Siitado al lado opuesto a la punta más medicional de España, oponese el gobierno español naturalmente a que ninguna otra potencia europea ocupe o administro Tanger No hay un trio de cañon moderno de distancia, a través del estrecho, de la fortaleza de la Gran Bretaña en Gibraltar, y fue en sus origenes parte de la zona de Marruecos en la que ahora ejerce Francia su dominio. Un grupo de blancos de la ciudad de Omaha, estado de Nebraska, miembros de la sociedad secreta Ku Klux Klan, enviaron hace algunos días una carta a uno de los periodicos de nuestra raza, la cual fue reproducida por casi toda nuestra prensa en el país. Desde la publicación de dicha carta hemos esperado con paciencia la opinión de ciertos de los tal llamados directores de nuestra raza, pues opinamos que el sentido de la carta en referencia, concrete de un modo directo . los quince millones de Negros en los Estados Unidos de América. Tanger fue un punto de Marruecos sobre el que Alenania en los dificiles días de la política internacional de la primera parte de este siglo marifestaba un interes que era especialmente irritante para Francia. Como resultado de uno de estos choques diplomaticos, celebró la conferencia de Algeciras en 1906, organizó una fuerza policial para la ciudad y su territorio limítrofe y se asumió el dominio de las aduanas de su puerto por las ootenciencias europeas A continuación publicamos el texto de la carta antes dicha Omaha, Nebraska. Sr Editor. Sus ideas son todas erróneas. Sus aspiraciones aquí no deben ni tendrán lugar de ser, toda vez que existan blancos en este país. Superioridad es nuestro lema y hemos de gobernar esta nación sin la intervención o consentimiento de algun Negro o grupo de Negros, no importe cuales sean sus condiciones intelectuales. Este es un país exclusivamente para blancos y estamos tomando nota, mientras ustedes suefian y se divierten. Ustedes han perdido y no podrán recuperar politicamente. Hemos realizado nuestro propósito en Oregon, Nebraska y New York seguirán el ejemplo Nosotros los blancos estamos determinados a eliminar al Negro de la política del estado y de la de la nación. Fuera de su importancia política. Tanger tiene interes comercial y económico. Es el puerto africano más proximo a Europa y es la ciudad marroquí que Europa conoce primero porque tan remotamente como en el siglo dieciocho era ya un centro diplomatico. Tiene hoy en día una gran población de europeos, especialmente de franceses y espafoles, y con la construcción de varios excelentes hoteles modernos ha straído un considerable número de turistas y visuantes invernales. El proyecto de ley Dyers en contra del linchamiento es una carmada para poder disponer del voto del Negro. No hay modo posible de que tal ley sea aprobada. Ningun blanco que lo intente podra vivir. Nosotros somos una sola familia, tanto en el Norte como en el Sur, y, al igual que ustedes los Negros, velamos por nuestros propios intereses. Nuestras vidas y nuestra libertay estan amenazadas por una raza extrangera. Sus predicas no conducirán al Negro mas lejos de su posición acerval. Nunca habrá aquí Imperio in Imperium; no tenemos espacio para ello. Ha habido mucha contraredad con a administración internacional a causa de las dificultades que creaba a los constructores que hubieran mejorado las facultades de alojamiento existentes y la situación higiénica del pueblo. Las mejoras muy necesitas de la lahía lan sido retardadas de año en año con mucho perjuicio, para e' comercio de la cuidad. Un ejemplo de la incapacidad del gobierno internacional para convenir sobre mingín punto es mencionado por un agente consular, que afirma que en ocasión de darse nombre a una calle el delegado francés propuso el nombre de Hugo el español el de Cervantes y el inglés el de Shakespeare. Se llegó a una transacción dando a la calle el titulo de Adán. Las manifestaciones de los blancos de la ciudad de Omaha no son extrañas a la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, pues en el estudio de la vida de esta nación durante los últimos cinco años, hemos hallado que tales declaraciones son en si la esencia de la política que practica el blanco en los Estados Unidos de America en lo que respecta al Negro. Nunca esperamos a que los miembros del Ku Klux Klan hicieran estas manifestaciones en Junio de 1922, sino que en 1917 organizamos la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra y la Luga de Comunidades Africanas, con la esperanza de proveer un hogar para el Negro, luego que este haya sido arrojado del continente americano por la raza que en su mayoría actualmente lo habita e intenta habitarlo para siempre. El asunto vuelve de nuevo a la actualidad por el deseo de las naciones interesadas de un arregle final de sus reclamaciones y a causa del hecho de que la Gran Bretaña trata de mantener su supervisión sobre el canal de Suez. Francia insiste en que se dominio de Marruecos debiera incluir a Tänger. España solicita que los limites de zona sobre la costa del Mediterráneo sean extendidos hasta abarcar Tänger y el territorio adyacente Ninguna nación parece hallar e en via de llegar a una transacción. La situación de la Gran Bretaña es la de arbitro, pero enteramente desineresado, porque es un asunto de vital importancia para ella que nación sea la que domine este punto estratégico directamente opuesto a Gibraltar. Lloyd George tiene aquilo sobre que ejercitar su talento Debera satisfacer a España y a Francia en el asunto de Marruecos en tal forma que convengan en una modificación de la política del norte de Africa que permita a la Gran Bretaña llevar tropas británicas al Sudán y a la zona del canal de Suez. Con el propósito de refrescar la mente del Negro en America, hemos de recordar que trescientos años ha, nuestra raza vivia en paz en su tierra madre el Africa. El Negro nunca perturbó ni intervino en los asuntos de nadie. Los blancos, dejando sus hogares en Europa y sin invitación, se introdujeron en Africa posesionándose de millares y millones de sus nativos a quienes secuestraron, colocándoles a bordo de embarcaciones y llevándoles a centenas de millas fuera de patria, en el continente occidental, disponiendo de ellos como esclavos. Este cautiverio duró doscientos cincuenta años en el continente americano y doscientos treinta años en las antillas. Durante ese periodo de tiempo el Negro pedía al cielo ayuda y al blanco misericordia. Esta última era completamente desconocida, pero providencialmente por el giro de la marea de la guerra entre los estados del Norte y Sur de esta nación, Lincoln, en esa época presidente de la república, emancipó al Negro, no porque fuera su deseo el ayudar a nuestra raza, sino para adquirir el éxito a que el aspiraba en aquel periodo de devastación y muerte. Su trono bamboleaba y era necesario recurrir a la fuerza yabilidad del Negro para que este cooperara a la realización del triunfo. Ochenta y cuatro años ha, al ocasionarse una gran pérdida en la cosecha del azucar antillano y por medio de la introducción en Gran Bretaña del azucar de remolacha procedente de Alemania, lo cual perjudicó financieramente a los hacendados y dueslos de esclavos en las Antillas, la reina Victoria de Inglaterra firmó una proclama de emancipación, la cual libertó a centenares de miles de esclavos en sus posesiones del nuevo mundo. La Independencia de Las Islas Filipinas La misión oficial separatista enviada por las Filipinas a Washington, traía una encomienda que paireció, sin duda, fácil y llana a los emisarios del pueblo del archipiélago. Tratábase solo de recordar a la administración actual de Washington la promesa solene hecha por la administración de Mr. Wilson, tan americana y tan consciente como la de Mr. Harding. La abolición de la esclavitud no fue un acto voluntario de parte del hombre blanco en Norte America ó en las Antillas. En los Estados Unidos de America fue una medida de guerra; en las Antillas fue una necesidad económica. Despues de cincuenta y siete años de libertad en el continente americano y ochenta y cuatro años de libertad en las Antillas, vemos aun a cliertos de los tal llamados directores de nuestra raza, decandientes directos de aquellos eclavos, predicando el que el Negro daba colocarse bajo la dirección de aquellos que le esclavizaron hace tresclentos años. Contrájose entonces con el pueblo filipino el compromiso sagrado de concederle plena y absoluta independencia, tan pronto el pais apareciera capacitado para desarrollar con exito el gobierno propito. En Manila, la promesa no sa ha olvidado. El pueblo del archipiélago ha realizado indudables progresos civicos. Y esta mielon representativa de las organizaciones políticas más populares, viene a capital de la Unión La carta que reproducimos es, para todo Negro inteligente, una prusba convincente de la actitud del hombre blanco en America, toda ves que las prédicas de nuestra organización por espacio de cinco años no le hayan convencido aun. No podemos contradecir el que America sea un país de blancos; esto fue ocasionado por la conquista. El hombre blanco conquistó y extarmínó al Indio postesionándose de sus tierras, las cuales no ha da ceder a individualidad o rasa alguna; bajó ninguna circunstancia. a inquirir la razon del aplazamiento en el cumplimiento de la promesa. A no dudar del deseo de menter la palabra empendada, los enviados filipinos pinelo tenian una actitud logística que adoptar. Por ese han demandado a a Mr. Harding porque se les considera inaptos aun para concederles el gobierno propio. Pero Mr. Harding, en au respuesta al memorial del senador Quezon, solo ha respondido "que no ha llegado aun el momento de la independencia". Es bastante vaga respuesta para un pueblo consciente que demanda la libertad que se le prometiera. El informe Wood-Forbes, tan poco satisfactorio para los filipinos, que no ha sido mencionado siquiera en el discuro presidencial, pesa con todo, sobre la política americana en Filipinas. El gobierno Wood, por temperamento, por preparación, por conveniencia, no puede representar en la lejana posición americana, sino un poder superior a la voluntad popular, siquera tempera su autoridad, con excelente buen sentido y una indiscuible buena fe. Su permanencia alla no sera en forma alguna favorable al proceso de una prueba de capacidad del pueblo filipino que pudiera ganar hasta el convencimiento de los ahora más opuestos a su independencia. El problema filipino es desconcertante Ningún pueblo ha mercedo más la ayuda de la publicidad, de las campañas de opinion y de la simpatía publica que este Rapidamente, en condiciones a veces excepcionalmente difíciles, el país ha progresado, se ha elevado su nivel civico y la población ha ganado en consciencia de sus derechos sin perturbaciones ni violencias. Los filipinos, como el mismo semo Quezon lo reconoce, contenarian actualmente con bastante menos que la independencia immediatas, les interesa más, justamente, saber en que fecha precisada su país contar con la independencia. No puede dirirse menos Y sin embargo, la publicidad no les es favorable. Filipinas con todo, está ganando terreno gradualmente hacia la victoria. Frente el ejemplo de vartos de los dominos britianos luchando estridentemente por la independencia. Filipinas opone su actitud serena, firme y reposada Esa fuerza hada de imponerse al fin y no ha de tardar en llegar este Desde luego, por el momento, nadie puede darse por sai-fecho con la cordialidad del discurso-o de Mr Harding que, no obstante, solo arirma, sin un soño dato concreto que no ha llegado aún el momento de la independencia.— La Prensa, N.Y. "LUZ DE ORIENTE" El correo de la mafiana nos ha proporcionado una sorpresa agradable. Entre la correspondencia tuvimos el placer de hallar un número de la revista cientifica, literaria, illustrada. "Luz de Oriente" de Santiago de Cobia. La revista en si pone de relieve la ardua labor de su distinguidio cuerpo de reclamation, manifestación del modo de peisar y sentir en el Oriente de la gran República antillana. Desele este otro lado del charco felicitanos calurosamente al nuevo paladin de la literatura, augurándole un exito completo en el inmenso campo del periodismo ¡Adelante hermanos, adelante! Se Organiza en Cuba la Delegación a la Liga de Naciones La Gaceta Official publica el decreto expedidp por el presidente de la republica, Dr Alfredo Zayas, creando en la secretaria de estado un negociado independiente de los que hoy existen en la misma, a cuyo cargo e-tarían los asuntos que se relacionen con la Liga de las naciones. Dispone así mismo que la delegación de Cuba en la Liga de las naciones tenga carácter permanente y se nombran para componer la misma a los señores Cosme de la Torriente y Perasa, presidente de la delegación y Aristides de Aguero y Betancourt y Guillermo de Blanck y Menocal Nombrebá también representante suplete y secretario general de la delegación al señor Miguel Angel Campa y Caravela. La Agitación Administrativa de Puerto Rico La controversia cada dia se acentuas, sobre las complicaciones originadas por la agitación política entre el senado y el ejecutivo en las ultimas semanas. El procurador general radicó ante la corte suprema una solicitud para que se revisa la resolución dictada por el juez Foote de la corte del primer distrito de San Juan, y un auto inhibitoro para que la corte suprema ordena al juez Foote, y al fiscal Arrillaga, que, por ahora, se abstengen de seguir actuando en relación con aquel asunto y temporalmente que debe sin efecto el esperibilidad de desacato que se le hace al Attorney General Mestre, para el caso de que no entregue al fiscal Arrillaga el informe del gran juicio. El Gobierno de Méjico Reusa la Colonización de Nuestra Raza El presidente de Méjico concedió cudiencia a los representantes de quince millones de Negros que de secan ir al país para colonizar algún punto de la república. El presidente Obregón dijo a la comisión que la ley de inmigración de Méjico es altamente liberal, pues no establece ningún distingo para las razas, pudiendo, por lo tanto, venir al país todos aquellos que lo desean, siempre que no hagan labor contraíta a la república y cumplan dobamente los requisitos señalados por la dicha ley de inmigración. Respecto a que el gobierno les conceda alguna extension de terreno para colonizar, el presidente indico que dicha petición deberían formularla ante la secretaria de agricultura para que esta sea la que resuelva en definitiva. D. Ramón P. de Negri, encargado de agricultura y fomento ha tenido la oportunidad de reiterar el criterio del gobierno en materia de colonización ante las gestiones que ha hecho el señor E. A. Key, quien conferió con el presidente de la república para solicitar tierras para ser colonizadas por varios miles de personas de raza negra. El señor De Negri declaro a los periodistas que no seria admitida la inmigración de Negros, por las razones manifestadas antes. que el problema étnico de Méjico, de suyó completo, se complicaria más. Pero, añadió, hay una razón más vinculada al fin de que ha venido a hablar el señor Key. tenemos muchas solicitudes de tierras, por parte de colonos de raza blanca yéstos, al llegarse a un arreglo, serán preferidos. Peor Acontece Aqui El lector abre su periódico y lee que cuarenta americanos han sido capturados por bandidos en Méjico y son retenidos en espera de rescate. Se indigna ante el atentado y se asombra de que los mejicanos se atrevieran a cometerlo. ¿Mas está en lo justo el indignado lector asombrándose de que se someta a tal tratamiento a ciudadanos americanos en un país extranjero? Hace una semana más de cuarenta ciudadanos americanos, que estaban dedicados al pacífico empiezo de ganarse la vida, fueron caturados, acoralados y atados en grupo. Veinte de ellos al fin fueron muertos, igominoosamente fusilados, apufialeados, ahoracidos o ahogados. Esto aconteció en uno de los más grandes estados de la Union. Estos asesinatos en gran escala fueeron cometidos a la luz del dia. Millares de hombres, mujeres y niños tomaron parte en ellos ó presencaron la matanza. Fué una fiesta de horroses. Ha pasado una semana y no se ha hecho ningun arresto. No se ha presentado ninguna acusación contra los asesinos, cuyos nombres deben conocer millares de personas. No se ha dado ningun verdadero paso por el condado, el estado ó la nacion para someter a los culpables a la justicia. Si los americanos son adecuados para ser victimas de asesinatos en los Estados Unidos, por qué no habrian los bandados de Méjico considerarlos adecuados para secuerarlos y retenerlos en espera de un rescate² I Cómo pueden los americanos esperar ser respetados fuera de su propio palis si permiten que el respeto de si mismos sea arrastrado por el sangriento lodo de los campos carboníferos de Illinois? Puerto Rico Espera Su Comisionado Residente en Washington Se espera el próximo 6 de Julio en San Juan al comisionado de Puerto Rico en Washington, señor Cordova Dávila, el cual viene a cambiar impresiones con los directores del partido respecto a la situación política creada por las diferencias entre el senado y el gobernador Reilly. La noticia del viaje fue transmitida en cartas confidentiales desde Washington. En la menclonada correspondencia, según publican los diarios, se afirma que el secretario de la guerra de Estados Unidos Mr. Weeka, habia enviado un telegrama al gobernador indicando que estuviera lista para abandonar el cargo en cualquier momento. El Secretario de Estado Presenta la Formula Sobre la Cuestión Tarea Afica El Dr. Mellón Porras y el señor Hernán Valarde, don, miembros principales de la delegación peruana en la conferencia Tacna Arcin, poscuiles y hilatoros hay, al margarito Hughes, arconalado de un mutilador, paraguay Tacna, epibacterio del peruvian, de El Salvador, al miembros sugerido para el protocolo del arbitraje. La fórmula fus immediatamente transmitida por el doctor Porras a su gobierno, pero rechus hacer nígún comentario acerca de su conferencia en el depasamiento de Estado ni sobre si la proposición de Hughes como se ha explicado ahora a los peruanos, corresponde con su inteligencia anterior. El doctor Porras dijo que tendría que esarar hasta saber lo que diga su gobierno, antes de hacer alguna declaración o comentario sobre la materia, por lo cual es posible que transcurran varios días antes de que se sepa positivamente si la proposición de Hughes está de acuerdo con la opinión chilena o peruana. Los delegados peruanos acudieron al departamento de Estado poco antes del medio día y acompañados por Pezet fueron introducidos a la oficina del secretario, donde pasaron casi una hora en conferencia. De alli se dirigieron a la embajada peruana, donde tuvieron una breve conferencia y se transmitió a Lima el mensaje contentivo de los términos de la formula del secretario Hughes y su explicación.

N. L. A. SWEEPING ISLE OF CUBA Liberty Hall, Guantanamo, Monday Night. May 8, 1912.—The usual weekly library debating society opened its sessions at 8:19 o'clock. Chairman for the evening, Mr. Charles A. Thomas, president. The association ode was sung, "As from Greenland's Ice Mountain." The subject for discussion, "Unity of Purpose." The first piece rendered was a song by Alma Dallah, B. C. N. "Sweetheart. I Am Waiting." nicely rendered and called for encourage. The first speaker introduced was Capt. R. A. Charles. The lecturer handled the subject in a mastery and scholarly manner. He was able to tell how much can be accomplished if this is kept in view. Other nations and races have developed and accumulated great wealth and risen to the highest place of human achievement, said he. Owing to pigmies and weak-kneed leaders of the past, and even of today, have not developed that high ideal of national ambition. The U. N. L. A. with its great program and worldwide international fame, through organization, can and shall accomplish what others have done. Called attention to the late Sir Conrad Rewen, Chief Justice of Barbados, when he represented the West Indies in the late Queen Victoria's Jubilee. The manner in which he displayed that statemanate that won for him an oratorial time that caused the Queen to bestow upon him the title of knighthood, and returned to his native land as Chief Justice Sir Conrad Reeves, and so the time today, through unity of purpose, can accomplish great things, said he. There is a tendency in some so-called leaders, "dressed in a little brief authority," most ignorant of what they may assume, played such fantastic things before high heaven as would angel wings. Mr. Charles kept his audience spellbound for nearly one hour and rose to the height of eloquence and took his seat amid applaudation. The next speaker introduced was R. M. Bacchier (chaplain), who said that he was not prepared to speak on the subject chosen for discussion, as he had no time to consider same, but spoke on the cause of Africa. He was able to bring home to his hearers the possibilities of a free and redeemed Africa, spoke for about thirty minutes and received cheers. The next speaker introduced was R. A. Williams on the subject "Unity of Purpose." He handled the subject in an able manner, hold how much good can be accomplished if unity is to exist between Hope and nation. Closing remarks were by Chatman Charles A. Williams on the subject the Ethiopian sainthood being branched to a sun-sustained state at 10 o'clock. Liberty - Hale, Giantanamo, Cuba. Monday night, May 15, 1922-The Weekly Library Society opened as usual. The association ode, "As from Grumbling I lay Mountain" was sung. Messing, mled, to order as 8 o'clock. Chairman for the evening, Charles A. Thomas (institut). Prayer by the Chairman, H. K. Batholay. The first place on the program was a song by Mrs. Mary Modes, "Red, Black and Green." This was nicely rendered and called for repetition. The first speaker PUBLIC INVITATION TO THE THIRD ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION OF THE NEGRO PEOPLES OF THE WORLD Negro lodges, clubs, fraternal societies, churches and missions that are truly interested in the higher development of the Negro race are requested to send each a delegate. Third Annual International Convention of the Negro race the world, to assemble in New York City, United of America, from August 1 to 31, night and day in various organizations, clubs and churches shall send names of their delegates to the Registrar. All delegates must arrive New York by the evening of the 31st of July, so unable to attend the grand opening on the 1st of August, for 150,000 deputies delegates and members will take members of churches should see that their pastors with convictions are as able to render them able to properly serve the movement, in their community; was R. H. Bachelar, who spoke on "Patriotism," heard to great advantage and received cheers. Song by Miss Agnes Malcolm, "Sing the Merry Call." This was well rendered and she gained the name of Liberty Hall song bird. The next speaker introduced was Capt. R. A. Charles on the subject, "Propaganda." The lecturer spoke as never before as he tried to emphasize the significance of the topic. His analysis of what is propaganda, the cause and effect, telling what has been done through propaganda and counter-propaganda, offensive and counter offensive, drew comparisons with newspapers and magazines and books the mediums by which we get to know what is happening on the other side. All great reform movements must have propagandists. The U N I. A. through its peerless paper. The Negro World, has reached the four corners of the earth, where Negroes are domiciled. The aims and objects are so great that it requires scientific teaching, and he. We want men and more men, men with a purpose, men with a vision, men with a will, men with a broad mind, men with backbones, men who will not compromise, men who have will power, men who know the psychology of the race are the kind of leaders wanted. Let us look at our third international convention for bigger brain, full-fledged men, men whom we can safely send out among other men of alien races. Among the noble characters I appreciate are E. W. Hlyden, G. Sir Conrad Reeves, Furgerson, Johnson, Booker T. Washington, Prot. S. W. H. Ferrie, M. A. Duse Mohamed All, J. H. Eason, and Hon. Marc Garvey, the best of them all, and scores of other negro geniuses. Said he, if you men and women sit idle all the day, how can we prove ourselves worthy of the great cause? We want men for the convention, but let me tell you, we want not a good man; we want the very best we have; men who have practical knowledge of conditions surrounding us; men who will be able to legislate, men who will do their own thinking and reasoning. Oh! Can we find such men who can stand up boldly and speak with authority; men who have helped the African Redemption Fund, helped to place ships on the seven seas—those are the kinds of dictator we want, for they have done it; and so they can and are able to tell others to do likewise. Through propaganda we get to know the world’s affairs. Let your secretaries measure up to expectations and adopt a proper method of working, so that there can be no criticism. Let your presidents, male and female, quit themselves like men; let them come forward and teach the people, said he. I believe in a constructive critic. As we have launched a program that is taking hold everywhere, even in far off Trinidad comes mighty work from one who have a purpose, Barbados, Grenada and other places in the West Indies, so let us fight the thing through and not get weary or tired until we shall have planted the colors of the Red, Black and Green on the hills top of our motherland, Africa. Certainly there was food in his discourse as he drove the sledge hammer blow and rose to the height of eloquence, was logical, argumentative, and further by cooperation and a mutual understanding between all concerned. Also announced that at the next literary meeting there will be a special discussion subject; some things we must force ourselves THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 to give up if we, as a race, are to be united and make real, genuine progress." He spoke for 60 minutes before a large and enthusiastic audience, and took his seat amidst rousing cheers, followed by a song by Misses Clairia and Iva Hillhouse. These juveniles are always contributing to our literary meetings and are promoting young Garveyites. Song entitled "We Are Happy Little One," this followed by an address by Corporal Alexander Fredericks (Legion) on "Reconstruction," and made a very good impression on the minds of his bearers, and the wonders that can be accomplished if we do the things necessary He spoke for about 20 minutes. The chairman, Mr Charles A. Thomas, made the closing remarks, after which the Ethiopian anthem was sung lustily, bringing to a close an enjoyable meeting never to be forgotten by those who witnessed it at 10:20 o'clock. Third Week Liberty Hall, Guantanamo, Cuba May 13. The unual weekly literary society opened its sessions in the customary form. Our hymn, "As From Greenland's Ice Mountain," was sung Chairman for the evening as lice President D. Prodrieker The first place on the program was a song by Miss Agnes Malcolm entitled "I Won't Leave You to Wonder." This was nicely rendered and deserves credit. The first speaker introduced was Capt. R. A. Charles, subject "Opposition." The lecturer called attention to the fact that the time has come for the Negroes to awake in race consciousness, said he. The meaning of the word chosen is a political one, also a logical word. Races and nations opposed one another and the bigger brains win. Individuals opposed one another selfily. We want characters like Prof. William H. Ferris, J. W. H. Eason, Duse McAken, Capt. E. L. Gaina, B. S. Poston, and the undoubted leader, Marcus Garvey. I can name dozens of noble men of the race past and present who I believe can match brains with brains, said he. The buildings of Europe having gone over unsettled world affairs, how are they going to settle the race question? There can be no peace when one-half of the human family is perishing for the necessaries of life. The heaps of wrongs committed upon a defenseless people, the terrible privations and hardships with trials, how can the weaker people be satisfied when the stronger ones oppress them? How can those who boast of civilization hold up their heads and talk of humanity when daily atrocities are committed on harmless people? The wanton taking away of another people's country, Negroes, can we realize the seriousness of the times? When we read of the inhuman acts committed by fire occupation of the black republic of Haiti and San Domingo, countries made free by gallant leaders, the former by Toussaint L'Uqurvente, whose name is written on the pages of history. Do you not see that impartial white Americans are advocating the removal and to restore the countries to their own rulers? I must repeat the words of Shakespeare. "Man, proud man, dressed in a little brief authority, most ignorant of what he is most assured, played such fantastic tricks before high Heaven as would make angels weep." The lecturer was in excellent form as he delved into the significance of the subject. It was, indeed, interesting; his voice concise and articulate; so vehement that he could have been heard several blocks off, and drew a large crowd inside Liberty Hall; even the people gathered around the doors and windows when then were no seats, to hear him as he explained conditions under which we live: the uneasiness just at this time, the much talked-of peace, the scrap of paper that the opposing nations always boast of when they want to go at war, and uncleav war is inevitable—nothing more than that. It comes. Turning to the president he more forbable attack, saying that since the literary society started none of them has shown themselves worthy of their office; they have not given or taken part in an interesting manner over its deliberations. Members, these are the kind of leaders you have. I say the man or woman who cannot measure up—make a clean sweep and so let your division reason to the top. He repudiated individuals, saying that they have not been to colleges or universities and that the division has too many learned men. How narrow-minded these men are. Who is responsible for them not having a sound education? following members: Rev. Alexander Charles, George McKenna and Hubert Saunders. Arrived at Guantanamo about 6:30 o'clock and joined mass meeting in Liberty Hall. Meeting opened as usual. The president Charles A. Thomas, who was in the chair, also acted as master of communications, assisted by R. A. Williams Reading of Scripture lessons. Pa. 104. "Bless the Lord, O My Soul." This being over, the literary and musical program follows. The first piece rendered was a song by A. Malcolm. The first speaker was Capt. R. A. Charice, on the subject. The Value of Propaganda." The speaker emphasized the topic in a well-befitting manner, and also reported his mission to Central Isabel with R. H. Bachelor, the good it has done, the observations made, the conditions under which our people live in these remote parts, the new members added to the fold, the earnestness of those longing to hear about Garveyism, and the bright future that is in store for them. He spoke for 20 minutes and received round cheers. The next piece song by Mines Christian Iva Hillhouse, nicely rendered. The new an address by Brother A. Hillhouse. Brother Ramayam of propaganda spoke. The chairman, Charles A. Thomas, paid a glowing tribute to the two officers who volunteered to go out to bring in new members to the division and asked that a vote of thanks be given to the deserving officers. It was also announced that Bundy- j. June 4, the following officers and members will visit Los Canos. David Ramayam, chairman, Board of Trustees and propaganda, R. A. Bachelor, R. A. Williams and Capt R. A. Charles, chairman of Honorary Advisory Board. The Ethiopian anthem was sung, thus bringing to a close an enjoyable evening at 9:40 o'clock. On Sunday, June 4, 1923, at about 8:30 o'clock, Moseby, David Ramsay, chairman of propaganda, R. H. Bacholar, chaplain, Prof. R. A. Williams and Capt R. A. Charles left by automobile for Los Canos, where it was previously announced that a mass meeting would take place on Sunday, 4th inst. We arrived at the above place about 5 o'clock. The news soon spread around and we went about inviting members and friends to come and hear the object and aims of Carvaylam. At 6 15 p.m the meeting began in the Company Theatre. A fairly large crowd gathered. The organ was placed at our disposal and the organist gave us some fine selections. Mr. David Ramsay acted as chairman for the occasion. The first piece was the speech on the graphophone by Hon. Marcus Garvey. The first speaker introduced was R. H. Bacholar, who in 20 minutes gave a wonderful discourse on the cause of Africa's freedom. He also appealed for new members, the convention fund and African redemption fund. He was listened to with rapt attention and received cheers. Selection by the graphophone. "Beautiful Bird, Sing On." The next speaker was Capt R. A. Charles. The explanation the speech and an explanation of the aims and object of the U N I A and A. C. L. He also made an appeal for new members and financial help, giving a 20-minute talk, and captivated the hearers, at the end of which 12 new members were enrolled into the fold of the U N I A. R. A. Williams, member of propaganda, spoke for nearly 20 minutes and brought home many striking facts and so cleared away the many doubling Thomases. Selection on the graphophone, "Shine On, Eternal Light." The organist also gave some fine selections. The chairman made a few brief remarks, thankking members and friends for their attention, and promised to convey back to Liberty Hall, Guantanamo, their loyalty to the cause of Africa's freedom. The singing of the Ethiopian anthem brought to a close a successful mass meeting for the first time at Los Canos. According to scheduled time, we left Los Canos at about 7 o'clock and returned to Liberty Hall at about 8 o'clock, where we met the meeting going on. The spiritual part being ended, the literary and musical side follows. The president then announced that the officers who have volunteered to do field service have returned from a trip to Los Canos. At this stage the chairman of propaganda, Mr. David Ramsay, gave briefly a summary of our visit, and SAVE TIME SAVE LABOR SAVE ENERGY HOW? Let us do your washing. Clothes carefully handled. No destructive acids used. We do Wet Wash, Rough Dry and Finished Work AT THE address to the delight of the audience on the subject, "For What Purposes We Are Here." It was encouraging and interesting. Certainly he is becoming Liberty Halls most popular man. He spoke for twenty minutes. Bro. Eric Hillhouse (treasures) on "Taith and Work." Unlike other members he is one of the few who professed love for the race and the cause of liberty; he also made an appeal to the building fund, new members, convention fund and African redemption fund. Turning to the president, he said: Do not be selfish; you must not listen to all little trifling things; you must have a broad mind; must be a real man to lead; you must be too selfish, petty things and obstacles to one another. And you must be an Alexander Frederiks gave a short talk, also Prof. A. Bolton on the subject, "What Makes the Man?" Closing remarks by the chairman, who thanked all who had taken part in the literary exercises. This was followed by the singing of the Ethiopian anthem. On Tuesday, May 28 a special meeting was called for to consider ways and means to send a delegate to the convention to represent the interests of the division. No. 164. The meeting was called to order at 7:30 o'clock. The president Charles A. Thomas, presided, and certain communications were read received from the parent body. The president explained the object and purpose of the meeting was called for, and according to communications this division must send a representative to the Third Annual Convention. After a lengthy discussion of the present conditions surrounding us, also the non-compliance of the parent body to satisfy the members of this division, with the two death grants of John Smith and James Roper deceased, over the non-compliance of the parent body back in the advancement of the division. Therefore, we do not see the practicability of sending a delegate, but resolved that this division send a recommendation to the parent body of the finances of the members, also that the High Commissioner to Cuba will be furnished with a similar copy to see that this division redeems its just quota. Fourth Week Liberty Hall, Guantanamo, *Cuba*, May 22, 1922.—At the early hour of 5:20 o'clock, Sunday morning, R. H. Bacholar accompanied Capt. R. A. Charles to Central Isabel, where an open air mass meeting took place. On arrival we were met by brothers Mr Hurbert Saunders and William McKen and Charles Lewis. The news soon circulated around and at 11 o'clock a meeting took place near the square, so as to felicitate those who have not heard the Hon. Marcus Garvey on his recent visit to this section of Guantanamo, were given the opportunity to hear him on the gramophone. The meeting opened with the association ode "As from Greenland's Icy Mountains," followed by a speech of Hon. Marcus Garvey on the gramophone, also the alms and objects were explained. The first speaker was Capt. R. A. Charles, calling attention to the speech and explanation of the alms and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities' League. The lecturer spoke for nearly two hours in an interesting and eloquent manner, was logical in bringing organization for thought as he spoke of organization, an earnest appeal for new members, to help the convention fund and the African Remission Fund. A pretty large crowd gathered and before the end of the meeting ten new members were enrolled into the fold, also liberal contributions were given in support of the great work to be undertaken. A selection by the gramophone, "Shine On, Eternal Light," was received with much attention, Mr. R. H. Bacholar (Chaplain) also delivered a forcible address. A wonderful appeal for support, financially and otherwise. He was listened to with rapt attention and received cheers. Another selection on the graphophone, "Beautiful Bird, Sing On." This, too, was well admired. Several other selection on the graphophone, such as "All by Myself," "Sleep on the Rose." Then the audience joined in singing "O God, Our Help in Ages Past," after which the Ethiopian anthem was sung tautly, all standing at attention, at 1:30 p. m. We promised to return in two weeks' time. We were accompanied to the town of Jamaica to take train by the the financial side will be given by Capt. R. A. Charles, recording secretary. The president then called on Capt. R. A. Charles to give his report. After outlining what we have done, the splendid work and the eagerness of those who came into the fold, the new spirit of Garverson having been enthused into them, also read the names of the 12 pew members who joined our ranks; also secured convention fund, thus adding to the division 23 new members during the last fortnight. Therefore we, the four, have assumed the name of the "Dauntless Four" and are prepared to bring in by August over 100 new members. A. H. Bacchol and R. A. Williams gave short talks in an encouraging manner. Selection by the choir, "How Excellent" also solo by Mia. M. Bennetta, during which the collection was taken up. Solo by Mia Alma Saundera.
