XIII. No. 13 IN THE NOR COMES TH FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: About eight years ago the peace of the world was rudely disturbed by the cry of war in Europe. The bloody conflict which was the outcome stirred the entire human race to a high pitch of military excitement. Men, races and nations everywhere were called upon to play their part in the terrible clash of arms. Everything during the period was subordinated to the prosecution of the unholy holocaust. The entire industrial system of the world was disarranged and disorganized. An overcrowded labor market suddenly relieved itself by the opening of hundreds of thousands of war-time industries, mills, factories and other plants which were compelled to call into active service millions of idle men and women who were thrown off during the time of peace by the industrial magnates. In the clamor for men and women to fill the vacant places in the industrial world millions of black men and women were called into service. They who were not wanted before were welcomed everywhere. Under normal conditions they had a set place in the industrial and economic life of the nations. It was so arranged that no Negro could have a responsible office, no Negro could find lucrative employment anywhere in big mills, factories or plants. He was to be but a serf in the lower walks, and in the higher sphere he was to be an outcast. Because of this attitude millions of us prior to the breaking out of hostilities in 1914 were thrown into a condition of pauperism, suggestive of very little hope for the future. The plan for the great white race was to gradually close the Negro out of those avenues of progress and economic security, thereby forcing him to starvation and ultimate death. This plan was universal in North America, and but for the war, the nine years following 1913, would have seen a condition of suffering among Negroes, even comparable with the famines of India. THE EFFECT OF THE WORLD WAR But, as Providence would have it, the war came and changed the aspect of things. The people who were doomed to starvation and death were suddenly ushered into an era of prosperity. Black men who never had a square meal for days were suddenly placed in positions of opulence. These new opportunities lasted for fully four years, during which period of time the entire race ran riot over a golden chance. Very little was saved if anything at all by the millions. Whilst other races carefully laid by during this period of prosperity for the rainy days, the Negro indulged in a continuous career of waste. In many of the large American cities on any one day you could see the Negro parading THE FOOTBALL CLASSIC OF THE YEAR WASHINGTON, D. C., THANKS ADMISSION: Box Seats, $2.00 each; Grand Stand by Post Office Money Order NEW YORK, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1922 MALCY OF THE DOOM OF THE NEGRO'S PLACE IN THE ECONOMIC ADJUSTMENT OF THE NATIONS THE NEGRO'S PLACE IN THE ECONOMIC ADJUSTMENT OF THE NATIONS THE RACE THAT WILL BE STARVED TO DEATH THE RIOT OF WASTE THAT DOOMS THE RACE his fortune on the side walks, either in diamond pins, rings, expensive trinkets or fine clothes. What was not spent this way was riotously spent in the saloons, cabarets, dance halls and on the gambling table. Outside of the Universal Negro Improvement Association no one took any thought of the morrow. The leaders of the race were as drunk as the unthinking mob. Headlong everybody went. The leaders of the community and of the nation indulged in the highest living possible. New automobiles were bought, new pleasure and excursion trips were undertaken at long distances, and in one long procession everyone marched as spendthrifts through the avenue of national waste. THE WORLD RETURNING TO NORMALCY What has happened? We now find the world returning to normal, each community taking on its pre-war adjustment. As men planned before to starve the Negro by closing him out of profitable industries, so is he to be kept out and pushed back today to make room for the strong race that is planning to survive. Undoubtedly we live in the age of the survival of the fittest, when only those who are sufficiently prepared will survive the rigors of a soulless civilization. The Negro unfortunately has made no step in advance. He has laid himself down upon the altar of public sympathy and charity, and now everyone knows that the world is void of these two ancient virtues. Man no longer thinks in terms sympathetic of his brother, this is the time when each must do for himself or die. Realizing the seriousness of things, the Universal Negro Improvement Association has for the entire period of the war, up to the present, been fighting to arouse the sleeping consciousness of the millions of Negroes everywhere to their own future, but unfortunately to a large extent, the seed of hope has fallen on barren ground. Not only in one section of the world, but universally, the Negro has refused to hearken to the voice in the wilderness crying out, "Black men, prepare, prepare, prepare." Can we not ask, can we not realize that without action on our own account, we are doomed forever? Can we not realize that the normalcy of world industrialism means the doom of the R"—LINCOLN UNIVERSITY VS. HOWARD LIVING DAY, THURSDAY MORNING, AT 10:30 $1.50; General Admission, $1.00.

From chattel slaves we have grown to become mental slaves, and as the great white race plans for our doom and destruction, so headlong do we follow not even having enough vision to know that through them and by them the Negro shall never see salvation. THE NEGRO IN NEED OF WISE LEADERSHIP All other peoples are struggling to blast a way through the industrial monopoly of races and nations, but the Negro has failed to grasp its true significance, and seems to delight himself in filling only that place that is created for him by the superior man. Now more than ever we are in need of leadership, and now more than ever our leadership seems to be visionless and dead. Instead of co-operating for the common good, we find the individual leaders of the race fighting each other, planning each other's destruction, hoping that the one might not succeed in his particular effort in directing the race toward destiny. No other race at this time is as hopelessly unprepared as the Negro. Let it be Irish, Jew or Egyptian, each and everyone in his own sphere is making an effort to find a place in the rearrangement of modern civilization. The Negro sleeps on, hoping still that chance will come his way and save him from perdition. But, chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people; action, self-reliance, the vision of self and the future have been the only means by which the oppressed have seen and realized the light of their own freedom. THE WORLD-WIDE CAMPAIGN OF THE U.N.I.A. I deem it my duty to again ask the support of Negroes everywhere in assisting the Universal Negro Improvement Association in its world-wide campaign of race adjustment. We want all the people to come together as never before, to stand united for our industrial, commercial social, educational, religious and political advancement. This can be done if every man and woman will make a determination to do or die. Co-operation is necessary for the successful promotion of the ideals of human liberty. This co-operation the Universal Negro Improvement Association seeks. You can help the great cause morally and financially by advocating its principles everywhere, and by sending in a donation to its headquarters, 56 West 135th Street, New York City, N. Y., U. S. A. Whatsoever help you can give, let it be $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $30, $50 give it now so that the great work can be continued for the redemption of the race.

He added further that never in all his life hau he seen on- thusiasm manifested by colored people about @ movement as he had scen on is last trip. On his trip he found the enemies of the organization had boen at work, but they had failed to do any Gamage to the Association, becouse they h.* found that the Negro in the Gouthland is a different Negro from what he was four or five years ago In coriclusion he sald that this is the only serious organixation that has ever been called into being by colored pso- CRAPS AES.

A. is the only Negro organization in the| world. It is accepted as a power, and ft is up to us to put our shouldors| behind it and put the program over. Hon. Vernal J. Willams, in an olo- quent speech delivered with the fire of & man who ts convinced of the soundness of the Fropodpion walsh be ia eubmitting, pointed Sut that the Great issue that transcends ahd over- shadows all the other collateral issues that-may arise in discussing the future of the Negro was this: “Is Africa going to be redeemed and be inde- pendent?” This great overarching question, Mr. Williams declared, has been brought before the world and before international public opinion tines the sfrent of thé Univoreal Negro Improvement Association. The program of the organisation, he anid, could not be compared with any other Negro organization. in that it had car- ried tho struggle of the black peoples of the world into the great unlimited sphere of governmental power. The purpess of other Negro organizations was almply to contend for certain Umited rights where the Negroes aro, but they forgot that wherever there ere rights to be gained there were certain corresponding obligations, and for any; people to maintain their rights they’ must lve up to the corresponding pbligation of backing thoso rights.

Unsworth Relates Tales of Devotion — Warns of Black and Yellow Peril in Address in Local Citadel The stupendous task of conversion engaged in by the Salvation Army throughout the world and the dominating spirit of self sacrifice devotion and concentration which permeates every phase of that work was told in suriring tones by Colin Leask this worth before a capacity audience in the Salvation Army clublet last night Col Unaworth is the international representative of General Bramwell Boot London Ltd. chief executive of the Salvation Army. He was accorded a rounding office and he briefed the building also the vision of his talk F Mature Nurseries Board Chamber of Committee Commissioner predeed Colonel Imaniwasha's address was not statistic ladder but rather it contained reminiscences leading from the inception of the Salvation Army in London, England, over forty years ago, to the present organization on preaching Christianity the world over. His areas of self-sacrifice unfolding devotion and the martyrdom of the Salvationaries threaded were of a soul touching nature and moved his audience to a deep sense of silence. Work Abroad Colonel Ussworth told of the accomplishments of the organization at home in darkest corners of Africa India and the Dutch Indies. In speaking of the work in India he related tasks confronting the women among the heathens, and of south Africa he uttered warnings regarding the problematical racial difference. The Salvation Army is breaking down the racial hatred and I hope that the great black cloud of upheaval which seems pending will never break. The cry of Africa for the African is still heard though. We are not only working under a black cloud, but under a yellow peril, which if it ever materializes will prove a sorry day for the tens of thousands living in that country," he said. In India there are 200 salvation Army officers, the speaker asserted. Work Among Lepera Colonel Unsworth deeply moved his hearers when he told of the army work in Java, especially among the lopers there. In the Dutch Indies, he pointed out, there are 75,000 lopers and about 2,000 victims under the care of the Salvation's仕. "You back home we can do well to remember our dear nurses out there. Remember, those who serve among those lopers are not appointed for such work but are volunteers—people who have a sacrificed their own personal identity to complete the task." A hearty vote of thanks was voted by Colonel F H Laing responded to by Dr P A Iewal both of whom spoke in highest praise of the speakers' address, commissioner Scanders before introducing Colonel Unsworth also paid high tribute to the work of the Salvation Army, since its organization.

But it is kind of use explained still as we watched a Kaffir mo her arranging her daughter's hair Girls in all countries follow the fashion observed Pro.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, Y, NOVEMBER 11, 2022 Head of Harlem Business School Pleads for Great Commercial and Industrial Efficiency Among Negroes By I. NEWTON BRAITHWAITE Principal Braithwaite Business School There is an increasing trend on the part of the Negro people of this country to go into business, which is indeed gratifying since it is universally recognized that the greatness of a nation or a people is measured by the extent to which they are engaged in commercial and industrial activities. These are the wealth producers, and the world now recognizes wealth as the proof of greatness. Commercialism, therefore, is the determining factor in the prestige of a country, hence it is that America stands out today as the financial mart of the world because of its vast commercial and industrial activities. It is a hopeful and healthy sign therefore, to find that the Negro people of this country are seeking this avenue to rise to independence, the effect of which will take a large extent be the breaking down of the impenetrable walls of prejudice and racial antagonism which have for centuries encom passed the Negro as a race, because of the fact that in the commercial world he has been but a negligible quantity. It is observed, however, that while the maturer element of the race is making strides toward commercial heights there is an amazing indifference on the part of the younger element to prepare themselves by proper commercial training to carry on the work and accelerate the pace which has been set. Business has been reduced to a science, and as such cannot be undertaken without a certain amount of intensive and specialized training. It is a mistake to believe that a man can enter into business promiscuously and compete with the other fellow who has spent time, energy and money in mastering its intricacies and preparing for the broad field that lies ahead of him. Thus the value and importance of the business school become more and more emphasized as an institution that forms an integral part of the community life of a people. There was a time when colored people were denied the opportunity for acquiring the requisite business training because of the fact that business concerns of their own were comparatively few and there was an absence of institutions where they could go to learn the fundamentals of business. The white business school, with but few exceptions, did not as old them a welcome, and it was simply a question of going out on their limited business initiative and taking a chance at success or failure—more often the latter was the result. This, however, is no longer true, and there will be found in nearly all large communities of colored people one or more Negro business schools which offer the same advantages for commercial training as many of the white schools, thus affording those who are thus inclined an opportunity to enter and pursue a course along the lines that will equip them and make them eligible to enter business for themselves or to serve as aids to others who are conducting business. The business man as he launches out finds that he needs a stonographer on whom he can depend to inform the public through correspondence of his existence. Then, as his business expands, he needs a bookkeeper to make accurate records of his transactions and enable him to keep track of his accounts, so that he is in a position at all times to know whether he is operating at a profit or loss. He also needs the services of a clerk to meet his customers at the counter to dispense his wares to them or to meet his clients at the desk and talk intelligently to them. Hence it will be seen that with the growth of business the services of young men and women thoroughly trained as stenographers, bookkeepers, accountants, clerks, salesmen, office workers, secretaries, etc., are needed, and it is astonishing to find how few there are of our people who can be classed as really efficient in those capacities. There is the constant cry of business men that they cannot get competent workers for their offices. Not so long ago, in conversation with a lawyer, he said to me: "You will be rendering an invaluable service to the community if you can turn out from your school real stenographers who can take down in shorthand what is dictated to them and transcribe their notes correctly." The shortcomings of the colored stenographer may be attributed to one of several reasons. I have found that students are invigiled into school with the idea that after a course of rapid study lasting two or three months they can emerge as full-fledged stenographers. As a result they go in and come out with a mere smattering of knowledge which inevitably produces failure. Moreover, it is found that students are lured by flourishing and catchy advertisements to place themselves under the tutelage of schools where the teachers are not fully qualified from the viewpoint of those who "Fulton, N. Y. 18 July. 1921. "I have signed my wife on this 18th day of July to Grover Coat for his touring car and all the considerations, including one tire, one pump and all the tools in the car at the present time. I let all bonds drop on my wife this 18th day of July, nineteen twenty-one. (Signed). "Frank B. Woodruff." The irony of the affair reappears in with the announcement that Woodruff has lost the car because he failed to meet certain financial obligations, while Mrs. Woodruff has filed from Coast's home and is now in Utica, her address being unknown to either of the men who "swapped" her without bothering to ask her consent. are to employ their product. It is wise therefore, for the student who has made up his mind to make a start to stop and investigate the merits of the school and the ability of its teachers—to find out whether they have by virtue of experience or proven ability demonstrated their fitness to teach others. In other words, make sure they know thoroughly what they pretend to teach, and know it not only theoretically but practically. The simplicity of the proposition is apparent—that as it takes lawyers to teach law, doctors to teach medicine, carpenters to teach carpentry, so it takes short-hand writers to teach shorthand. The stenographic student will find that his time is spent in vain trying to learn under a theorist whose knowledge does not take him beyond the textbook or the classroom and who has never sought or had the opportunity to put his theory to a practical test. In conclusion I desire to say that there are golden opportunities for competent stenographers bookkeepers, secretaries etc. The demand for them will always exceed the supply and the problem of finding persons who are capable to satisfactorily function in these capacities calls for earnest attention if the commercial progress of the race must go forward without any serious handicaps. FOLLOW ME What the Philadelphia Tribune Says About "Follow Me," Musical Comedy, That Is to Open at the Lafayette Theatre, New York City, Week of November 13 Twenty-five thousand patrons of the theatre attended the fourteen performances of "Follow Me." A marvelous production, which in its glorification of mimetic art surpasses anything ever witnessed on a local stage Beats are all sold before the doors open, and standing room is at a premium. These vast audiences that fill each performance seem tireless in thundering its approbation and its pleasure The book is by Billy Higgins and F. R. Whitman, musical numbers by Stanley Bennett, and it is staged by Jerry Mills. The entire production is under the personal direction of I. M. Weingarden. The success of this theatre, marking a tremendous step forward in Philadelphia theatricals, is a fitting place for the presentation of this wonderful production. "Follow Me" is romance and spectacle, musical comedy and vaudouille Its music is so good and its situations so amusing that it holds any sort of audience in its spell There could hardly be a more imposing figure than that of our old friend the sonorous and impressive Ernest Whitman, who takes the par, of Mephisto, and who can be remembered some months ago in stock; he can sing, too, and he demonstrates that he has not lost his voice in songs. He is a masterful fellow, whose determination is ever to permit no opposition to his will, and his introductory prologue is rhymed with good intent, as the impas, Ims Johnson and Evelyn Shockley, who act as pages, pull aside the large curtains and expose to your vision the stars and the entire personnel of the company Stanley Bennett, who wrote the music has in several instances provided melodies that, while tuneful and rich in color, strike one as more ambitious than ordinarily are heard in the modern comedy. There is not an abundance of melodies that may be regarded as striking, but there are songs and ballads to affect each hearer pleasantly and also to provide splendid singing opportunities for Alice Gorgas, Dorris Hudson, Iola Young, Mamie Smith, Walter Brogsdale and Al Curtis. Several of the big hits are "The Dancing Ponies." "The Persian Snake Dance," by Billy Burgeynge; "Just Harmony," by the "Follow Me Four," and the Leggatt Sisters, and the lyrics, be it said, fitted splendidly the numerous spirited or delightful melodies. It would not be surprising soon to hear the dance melodies that numerous adorn the work played by all of our orchestras and danced with enjoyment by appreciative couples. It provides good opportunities for comedy work on the part of the principals. Billy Higgins, with his educated arms and his droll saying she has amused the剧egroes for some years, and Clifford Rosa, another blackface comedian, who has made good. Of course, the story, as far as you can understand, is of absorbing interest with just enough seriousness in well developed spots to hold your interest. There are thirteen scenes with romanticism set in this country, and winding up in taking you any place and everywhere. They are all of admirable creatm. There are twenty-two musical numbers and there is a host of minor characters, with a number of finely danced dancers and choristers, who aid in giving seat to the tuneful melodies sung in illustration of the tale. More garments are worn, sometimes more revealing than otherwise. The unusual nature of the apparel displayed on girls of beauty and of wondrous figures is bewildering. This adds charm to the presentation. "Follow Me" is a musical comedy that sets the foot to tapping with the rich melody of its songs and leaves delicious memories of its Elysium-like plot, but, after all, it is the name part that is the fascinating and enthralling creation, and to it must be accorded the high praise due a super-achievement in theatricals. POWER OF THE U. N. LA SWEEPING THE COUNTRY (Continued from page 2) sent Negro from what he was four or five years ago. Today he is a Negro that you do not have to urge to do things, but you have to restrain him somewhat, because he is conscious of his condition and he sees far more than the Negro here in New York and in many other places the need of an organization of this kind, and the people of the Southland are going to have to reckon with that restless, contending Negro in the Southland, made so by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Applause.) Prominent Negrees Joining U. N. I. A. Prominent Negress Joining U. N. I. A. You would be surprised to learn of the number of Negroes of prominence who are coming into this association in New Orleans since the actions of the police officers. Before we left there Governor Parker of the State of Louisiana was making an investigation of this matter, which shows you that the people recognize this association as an issue to be seriously contended with. The Only Serious Organization The Only Serious Organization In conclusion, I want to say that this is the only serious organization that has ever been called into being by colored people, and the very fact that the organization is maintained entirely by colored people's money, the very fact that we are dependent upon colored people for everything is causing some people to have sleepiness nights. Some weeks ago I was speaking at the national capitol, in Washington, and found it necessary to say some things about the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People—thing that I rarely ever do—and I called attention to the fact that practically all of the important officers of that association are white men. Some weeks after I left Washington, the Washington Tribute quoted me almost to a word. They did not mention my name, but stated not only what I said, but some things that I did not know about the N A A C P. Listen at this just a moment. The president of the N A A C P. Moorfield Storey, is a white man, the treasurer of the N A A C P. Jel Spinga. n. is a white man, the chairman of the Board of Directors of the N A A C P. Mary White Owington, is a white woman; the director of publicity of the N A A C P. Herbert Selgman, is a white man, three of the vice-presidents are white, including Villiard. This is the association that some men want to accept as a colored organization, and the colored press is up in arms because of the deceit of some of the men connected with that organization. Only Negro Organization We have the only Negro organization in the world. It is accepted as a power, and it is up to us to put our shoulders behind it and put the program over. In closing, let me say that some one talked about going out on the field and destroying the U. N. N. L. A., but if every officer in this association, from the highest down to the lowest, went out on the field now and preached against the Universal Negro Invasion Association this association has taken such a place in the hearts of the people that they would not be able to endanger it; and that will give you some idea of the strength of this great organization. (Applause) Hon. V. J. Williams Speaks The next speaker was Hom. Vernal J Williams, who said. The one great issue, in my opinion, that the Negro peoples of the world are called upon to decide, the one relevant question in my mind that seems to transcord and overshadow all the other collateral issues that may arise in discussing the future of the Negro is this. Is Africa going to be redeemed and be independent? Long before the European struggle began between church and state there had always been raging in the minds and hearts the eternal struggle whether or not supreme governmental authority should be vested in an entire population politically organized or whether or not the government of any people should be repressed in the hands of a fow. The African undoubtedly has felt this burning issue in his heart and undoubtedly has powdered over the question; but quite naturally he may not have been able to give expression to his thought, to his opinion, to his desire because those who had him under their control would not permit him to discuss the question.

NOTICE TO ALL MEMBERS And Divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Negro Peoples of the World J. W. H. EASON Is no longer connected with the Universal Negro Improvement Association All Divisions, Branches and Chapters Are Hereby Warned Not to Receive or Entertain This Person BY ORDER UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION The adven of the Universal Negro Improvement Association into the life and existence of the peoples throughout the world has done for the African at home and abroad that which his masters or overlords did not permit him to do at home. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has brought before the world and before international public opinion this great overreaching question—Shall Africa Be Redeemed? No Comparison Is Africa to Be Independent? Is Africa to be independent? That is the big issue. Our enemies try to measure the success of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in dollars and cents. It cannot be done. If the power of a government—if the power of a people—is to be measured alone in dollars and cents, Russia and Germany to night would not be as respected by the other governments of the world as they are respected. And don't forget yourselves: America and England and France and Italy have as much respect for Germany and they have as much respect for Russia as they had before the great international holocaust of 1914. Germany as a political factor in the world remains unbeaten, even though her currency is at a low ebb. Therefore you cannot measure political or moral significance in more terms of dollars and cents. The Test of Governments The great test, the acid test, of the strength and the power of any government or of any organization or movement is to retain the unity of those who go to make up its membership and in maintaining the unity of its membership as the Universal Negro Improvement Association has undoubtedly done, and if there is evidence and proof by any other factor, it is evidenced and proved by your presence here tonight—by your enthusiasm displayed here tonight. I say that by the very maintenance of the unity of its membership, not only in New York but throughout the length and breadth of this country, throughout the length and breadth of the divisions throughout the islands of the seas, throughout the length and breadth of foreign countries, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in maintaining that same continuity of unity it had from its very inception, has proved to the world that the Association is here and here to stay. What of Africa and Her Independence? What then of Africa and her independence? It means that all the other questions, all the other issues, dwindle into oblivion, and that big question still remains on the horizon. I feel that the paramount question for us to decide is Africa. If we lose sight of Africa then we are going to certainly decline, because Africa is the key that is opening the door of success to all the nations. The wealth of Africa, the resources of Africa are regarded by the nations of the world as the things upon which they are going to build their future, and certainly if that is their objective then the black peoples of the world ought to do the same; and that is why the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association challenges the program of any other movement, because on the African question we and we alone are right. (Applause). If the Universal Negro Improvement Association continues to carry the fight of Africa—the fight that was begun in the very inception—the fight that Adams and Sherrill and Marks and Bellagarle took to Geneva—the fight that today challenges white supremacy in Africa—the fight today that causes the powers of the world to be trembling and asking what next is the Negro going to do, I say, my friend, if the Universal Negro Improvement Association continues this fight for Africa it is going to gather in its fold every man, est, righteous-thinking black man and black woman, regardless of where they come from on where they are going to (Applause.) The white man could have no other interests in Africa, but such interests as will help his country; the black man could have no other interests. In Africa but such interests as will help black peoples throughout the world. Clash Between Black and White interests It is a clash between the interests of the black man and the interests of the white man, and in precipitating this clash the Universal Negro Improvement Association has performed to the race, to humanity and to the world at large a greater service than any other Negro organization throughout the world can accomplish or achieve.

In the late eighties the Darwinian theories of ‘evolution, biblical criticism, the new psychology and the discoveries im astronomy and geology showing that the universe stretched further out in space and reached further back m time than the churchman had been taught to believe created a sensation, Then pious and religious souls began unxiously to inquire whether the new science, psychology and knowledge of the Bible would undermine the faith of the fathers and the eternal foundations of religion Then champions of the eternal verities leaped to the fore, Ru- dolf Lotze, Prof Taulsen, Rudolf Eucken and Prof Otto of Ger- ‘nany, Dr James Martineau, the Seth brothers and the Cairds of England. Dr: Wm. T Harris, US Commissioner of Lducation, Prof John Watson of Canada, Dean C, C. Everett. Prof William James and Pref Josiah Royce ot Harvard, Dr George Irumbull Ladd of Yale, Prof Borden P. Bourne of Boston University and President Jacob Gould Schurman of Cornell University and Prof John biske filled the libraries with books that were penetrating, analytical and profound and eloquent in passages showing that modein science had not undermined fasth in God, freedom and immortality But these works were for .he most part too subtle and profound for the undergraduate and for the layman who only had a high school education or a grammar school education supplemented by general reading ‘Then a group of brillant preachers cane along who acted as the interpreters of the thoughts of the master minds Dr. George A Gordon an! Dr C ( Dole of Boston, Dr ‘Theodore Munger and Dr Newman Smythe of New Haven, Conn, Dr \mory Bradford of Montclair and Dr Lyman Abbott of Brooklyn, NY, shone brilhantly in this galaxy who distilled the thought of the great scholars and philosophers and gave it to ther hearers ur the general public in homeopathic doses Among this group Dr Lyman Abbott was the most conspnu- ous. He occupied a strategic position, as he wan the successur uf the famous Henry Ward Beecher and edited the most popular re I-gious weekly Then his clear and vigorous stvle and his fath and enthusiam, which manifested themselves both im speech and writing, gave him a wide hearing We remember how the main auditorium and the anteroums of Dwight Hall, Vale University, were packed and jammed one Sunday evening ty hear Dr \bhott discourse eloquently for one hour on evolution atid rckgne — Not a great philosopher himself, Dr Abbott was a remarkable pow larizer of sem-philosophical thought, Dr. Abbott and the Negro Dr Abbott was alsu intensely interested in Neuro: clic ation | but while a progressive im relxion, he was a reactwsnary on the race problem While a radical im theulugy, he was a Conservative when tetng the strivings of the black mane believed in the indus: trial, but not the higher education of the Negro, and did not think | that the time was ripe fur the Negro tw press bye climes te cise and political recognition We do not think that this was due go much te prejcilice per se as to lack of information about the Negro [i 4 talk with hum while he was college pastor at Harvard for a few weeks we found him frank, courteous and cordial, but he had not known intimately Negro men of real scholarship like Dr Alexander Crummell and Dr. Edward Wilmot Blyden, nur had he read of the distingtushe | foreign Negroes of the eighteenth century Ie dit not seem to know of the civilizations that black men erected wi [gypt, Filiopra and Timbuctoo Possibly he had heard of these things, but had not taken them seriously or myestigated them for iuimselt, and that lis perhaps why a semephilosophical thinker im relurion and thee: logical thought, the great divine was only a surface thinker in ethnological thought But we must not criticize Dr \bbott too severely He came upon the scene of action and arrived at manhoud's state ‘ong hefare the researches of Sergs, Ripley, Buaz, Fimot, Chamberlam, Weimer and Major Felhx Du Bors revealed the part played by black men i American, medieval and ancient civihzation, in an age when Gre- goire’s Enquiry was not taken seriously mm \menca and on an age when the American translation onutted the splendid tribute tu the Negro in Volney’s Ruins and the Meditation on the Fate of \ucient Empires.

In intellectual things he was a more philosophical thinker but in things that concern the plum, common. every day man he was not as keen a psychologist as the great Brooklyn preacher. but im the main problem of his tines, the problem of theological readjust. ment to the demands of modern thought, Dr \bbutt ably fillod his niche.

THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE SEERS DLUUY HE Chicago Tribune is evidently doing its very best to pre- I cipitate another race riot in the Windy City. Its blood lust was not satisfied by the riot of the summer of 1919 Not enough black men and white men were killed and wounded to satisfy ite desire to sce blood flow like milk and water. So the Chicago Tribune by a subtle propaganda 1s endeavoring to stir the blood and arouse the warlike passions of its Caucasian readers. Recently it had a misleading cartoon, “The Rising Tide of Color,” which we commented upon in the columns of The Negro World. Now again in the October 28th issue of the paper it has 2 misleading editorial entitled “Advice to Negro Leaders,” which we quoted last week. ‘This editorial in the Chicago Tribune exhibits the dense igno- rance of some of those editors who attempt to dogmatize regarding the colored brother. It made three misstatements regarding the Niagara movement. In the first plgce, the Niagara movement no longer exists. In the second place, when it did exist it was an organization of black men. In the third place, when it did exist, race mixture was not its slogan, but civic and political equality and economic and industrial justice. What the editor of the Tribune probably had in mind was the N. A. A.C. P. Now if the editor of the Chicago Tribune does not know that ape Ningara movement passed Out of existence in 1909 and that the N. A.A. C. P. stepped upon the stage, it shows how little he knows of:affairs Afric, The editor of the Chicago Tribune seems to have experienced a Rip Ven Winkle elumber physically for twenty y-:r2 2nd men- tally for thirty years. When they began ta disfranchise the Negro tility and forty years ago, when they began to pm-crow the Negro in the Sonth thirty years ago, they cast upon the canvas the bug- bear of social equality. It was a camouflage to pull the wool over the eyes of the friends of the Negro. They were trying to keep the Negro away from the ballot box and humiliate him in public travel while they pretended that they were only trying to keep him out of their dining rooms and bedrooms. ‘What, however, we would like the Chicago Tribune do is to define Siki’s ethnological status. He was a brave soldier who was decorated for valor and he was the conqueror of Georges Car- pentier, the fistic idol of France, in the roped arena. Does the Chi- cago Tribune regard Siki as a brave man or a trained ape? Does the Chicago Tribune regard the Negro as a man or as the missing link between man and the monkey that Darwin sought for and found not? Sometimes the Chicago Tribune talke as if it regarded the Negro as @ human being and at other times as an animal. - Why should the Tribune worry so much about Siki? He is not-the first Negro gladiator to reach the top. Molyneaux, Peter "Jackson, George Godfrey, George Dixon, Joe Gans, the Harlem Cof- ‘fealCaoler, Joe Walcott, Sam Langford, Joe Jeannette, Sam McVey, Jack-Johneos and Harry Wills have also been in the limelight. Of these Molyneaux, Peer Jackson, Sam Langford and Jack Johnson won athletic laurels ‘n Europe, Peter Jackson was very popular in : Bngtasd, and the ro Sam McVey was called in Paris “The Black -Bispa of the Boulevards.” 2 We do not sse-any logical relation between an African knocking . atm Frenchman: in Europe and the question of intermarriage and ‘gecominture is America.

YOUNG POST, OF NEW YORK, SENDS OPEN LETTER TO THE SECRETARY OF WAR REGARDING THE NEGRO SOLDIERS Octbr 24, 1922. Honorable John W. Weeks. The Colonel Charles Young Post No. 398. American Legion, regrets the discrimination being tolerated by the War Department. The attention of the secretary has already been called to the incident with reference to Mr. Walter Bradley at the citizens' training camp at Plattsburg. The matter was at first taken up with Congressman Martin G Ansorge Later, Senators Calder and Wadsworth referred the matter to the War Department, which promised, over the signature of the secretary, an investigation. The findings of the investigation, while proving satisfactory to the department were anything but complimentary to the nearly 400,000 Negro soldiers who labored and fought while the nation fenced for democracy Conciliatory to the situation, the excuse given for rejecting colored applicants was, "No citizen's military training camps were planned or held in the Second Corps area for colored candidates, since those camps are held for the purpose of filling up the organized reserves and there are no colored reserves organizations in that corps area." We appreciate the information relative to the existence of a camp for training colored citizens in the Fourth Corps area, and invite the attention of the secretary to the fact that at Camp Devens, Mass, where no distinction was made, eight colored citizens attended, two of whom were commissioned and a third given honorable mention As American citizens whose history in the land antedates the Mayflower, a people whose blood stains every battle ground in the nation's history, and above all as warriors whose records stand unchallengeable, we feel justified in protesting. We are certain that such conditions are bound to obtain until taken into serious consideration at the fountain source of American life. Until the high offices and powers of the United States Government cease to consider these matters in terms of racial difference, color and geographical sectionalism, there can be no hope of national homogenization. We look to the day when the stamina and morale of the high functions of the United States Government shall be sufficient to face truth and deal with conditions in the traditional American manner. There is only one solution of the American problem, that is, by squarely facing naked facts. An American is an American, a soldier a soldier. When the next battle call is sounded Negroes will be called upon as always before. They will be commanded by Negro officers even more in the future than heretofore. As heretofore, black and white man will mingle on the battle field. The earth will not recognize white blood nor black. The present is a forecast of the future. The morale of one affects that of the other. Unity in peace is the best security in war. The regrets of the secretary are expressed for the occurrence of the aforementioned circumstance and assurance is given that there is no intention on the part of the department to make any discrimination on account of color. The attention of the secretary is respectfully invited to this—that in the ordinary functions of citizenship, the question of color is submerged as much as possible; in the functions of the War Department special emphasis is placed upon color. The intention cannot overweigh the fact. This organization, with many other Negro organizations throughout the country, is aiming to perpetuate or rather contribute to the 100 per cent program of the American Legion. Whether this organization or any other shall in any measure succeed in this undertaking depends not upon the vacillating North or the solid South, but upon the conscience exercised at the seat of Government at Washington. The American people must face this fact and effect a sensible and intelligent disposition of the matter. The situation is too serious for us to continue fooling ourselves in believing that there is any other salutary means of strengthening the nation. In matters of taxation and other contributions which go to make operative the machinery of the land, we beg to note that special consideration in so far as color is concerned is quite overlooked.

PLAIN TALK TO THE JAMAICA GLEANER To the Editor of the Jamaica Gleaner Sir, I have noticed that you have received a curtain lecture for your so-called defense of Jamaicans by a countryman of yours, some time ago in the Negro World, of which you are well deserving, and I. the undersigned, am desirous of adding one more stripe to your penalty, sir. You have pretended to be very friendly to your countrymen, by encouraging them not to hand out their "meager earnings" to an organization that is not founded on honest principles, or words to that effect. But you seem to be one of the many men who cannot fall to see the mote in another's eyes, but can never see the beam in yours. If you want to be of valuable service to your "countrymen," I urge that you take a vacation, and tour the island of Cuba, and become acquainted with the miserable hardships that not Jamaicans alone, but all foreigners of Negro descent, have to put up with to obtain their meals, and not even the good kind at times, and then you would be able to see if the organization known as the Universal Negro Improvement Association is not the right organization for Negroes to support. Otherwise, you may stay right there and ally yourself with the representatives of your government, and legislate in the interest of us sojourners in the island Republic of Cuba. There are thousands of us here now stranded, many have returned to their so-called homes and other climes, in like manner, after rolling under the most disadvantageous conditions known to a so-called civilized world, and a piece of white paper given from 1920 until the present time has found no space in the exchange markets. Many of us have been inhumanly treated, sometimes killed, some have been accidentally killed while working for the railroad companies, others damaged while working for sugar companies, and what is the redress? Sometimes the insurance company pretends ignorance; for instance, a Freddie Robinson was accidentally killed while at work in the THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, MEMBER 11, 1622 toy employ of the Norte Cuban Railroad, on January 12 of this year. His sister, Miss Beatrice Robinson, after being twisted and turned, was told by the insurance company in Havana that they had no record of such an accident. Meanwhile the family of the superintendent of the same railroad, who died from the cause of the same accident, was well looked after. Why don't you become a little more interested in these things, which are of such vital importance to your "countrymen" and which the Universal Negro Improvement Association is endeavoring to rectify? Respectfully yours. JOSEPH A. TODD. Moron, Cuba. APPROPOS BISHOP HUTSON'S DISCUSSION OF THE NEGRO PROBLEM IN WEST INDIES Editor The Negro World A discussion of the Negro problem in the West Indies by the Rt Rev Edward Hutson of Antigua, B. W. I., was only a desire on the bishop's part to be interesting. He spent one year at the General Theological Seminary in New York as a student, hence he has experience with the American "point of view." He must find a point of contact with his audience. To be fair to the bishop, I do not think that he intended to reflect in any way upon the morale or intelligence of his countrymen. Yet it is not the intention of a speech that counts, but its results. He has exaggerated a few points for effect. This is unfortunate at this time when Roscoe Simmons ceases to by night or day his anti-West Indian crusade. I lost my respect for the gentleman when he attacked the late Bert Williams. No white man attacks another successful white man by reference to his native home, he finds other grounds. Justice Sutherland was born in England. He came here at the same age that Bert Williams did, yet President Harding appoints him to the Supreme Court. "He isn't nothin': but an Englihman." Bert Williams "came to our terms." He was "more American than most American." It amuses me when "culud folks" talk about prejudice. They practice the thing they are fighting in others. It amuses us who "pass." Here is where we find joy to pass by like the Levite. Your ants won't hurt; we can help I hold no brief for Garvey I don't belong to the organization. I was graduated from the leading American university, so I am a disciple of fair piay. The Chicago "Defender" of October 14 carries an editorial criticism of the Chicago "Tribune" for its continual unfairness in giving prominent place to those things which show the bad side of the Negro. Also many of the "Tribune's" articles are grossly exaggerated. This criticism is fair. Yet the Chicago "Defender" caricatures Marcus Garvey and gives prominent place to some of the most ludicrous stories about the working of the organization. If Marcus Garvey "must go" and for this purpose you should vilify and exaggerate, then you are justified in using your newspaper r for this purpose. Granting that he is a public menace, but on the other hand it the editor of the "Tribune" has certain innate beliefs about, the Negro isn't he justified in giving expression to such beliefs? Of course, neither of you is justified, for a journalist must be impartial and just. Must criticize, that is, pass judgment To do this, one must point out the merits and demerits. I wonder how many Negroes can do this. One must think accurately and impartially. To return to Bishop Hutson. I must be brief. HAIR LIKE POLISHED EBONY ZURA, famous Queen of the Moors had soft long hair which shone like the Raven's wing The Ancient Moorish Secret of shampooing the hair, now accessible to the race How often have you admired people with long, shining hair, soft and luxuriant? They were not born with beautiful hair, but have learned the secret of hair health which is simply a matter of caring for the hair Nature gave them. People of discrimination are now using the ZURA SHAMPOO which is a compound of bland Moorish and imported olive and opossum oil, prepared by a $15,000,000 company. The use of ZURA SHAMPOO will absolutely eradicate dandruff and leave the scalp with a cool, refreshed feeling.

He says: "There is virtually no social intercourse between the two battles, but we all worship together and go to the same altar." Yet his first cousin married a Negro—Mr. Walk. He was at one time assistant auditor-general. He couldn't "pass" in America. The aforementioned lady is the daughter of a former bishop — Bishop Branch. 3. He was elected as a "dark horse" as we say in American politics. 4. He is not looked upon as a representative bishop; not because of his blood, but his brains. At Codrington College, Barbados, he finished with a "pass" degree. The college at one time refused him a "D.D." on this ground. He came to America to the General Theological Seminary for a year's training. Brilliant white men go to England Brilliant colored men come to America and Canada.

Oct 28 — Relative to your editorial that appeared under date of October 28, under the caption. Advice to Negro Leaders," permit me to offer the following comment You have made the same mistake that is so common of most white people who express their views on the so-called race problem. In that your source of information belies the real thought of the Negro today Like the average white man who thinks of the Negro in terms of conclusions drawn from bootbacks, juntors, porters and washerwomen, you have quoted the Chicago Defender as your source of enlightenment on what the black man is thinking, and the Chicago Defender is a newspaper enterprise, a commercial institution, representative of the thought of reactionary Negroes, and does not reflect the sound and intelligent thoughts of Negro students, thinkers and statesmen This old crowd Negro leadership whom you quote in the Chicago Defender, who have been appealing, begging, pleading, petitioning and playing the cry baby for fifty years, in their search for equal opportunity, amalgam- mation and justice, have been relegated to the background by the new leadership in the race, who are determined to make the Negro stand up as a man by his own merits and his own accomplishments. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, with its $4,000,000 members, are out to do this, and in due time they no doubt will prove to the world that what white men have done Negroes can do.—J. Jackson Tillford, in the Chicago Tribune. NEGRO PROGRESS Those who believe in the capacity of the Negro to become a good citizen of a civilized state will receive much encouragement for this faith from a British parliamentary report. The author is Mr. E. F L. Wood. Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies. The subject is the British West Indies. It is created from the political standpoint. Mr Wood shatters some old theories regarding the incapacity of the African Until the present popular estimation of the Negro in England and in this country has been based on the book, "The English in the West Indies," by J. Anthony Froude. This historian declared that any attempt to establish in those islands native elective representatives with authority would be a fatal mistake. It would ultimately lead to the exodus of the white population whose presence is the chief hope of preventing the islands from falling into barbarism. Mr. Froude had also the belief that the mulatto partook of the vices of both the white and black races. Needless to say, this prejudice against persons of mixed blood as a class has been proved as lacking foundation in fact It remained for Mr Wood to give the official quietus to this doctrine of Mr Froude. In Jamaica the Negroes have had the franchise for three decades. After this experience, he declares that the colored element there is a valuable, progressive and increasingly influential body. He further says: "What I have seen of the elected members of the Legislative Council of Jamaica, taken as a whole, gives me no reason to doubt the essential sanity of the electors in their choice of representatives. The body of the elected members appear to be animated by a high sense of public duty and a full consciousness of their responsibilities in the business of government." The members of whom he writes are predominantly colored men elected by constituencies in which the great majority are Negro peasant proprietors. His report is regarded as proving the ability of the transplanted West African native to develop his qualities for good citizenship. Mr. Wood further recommends that Jamaica receive a greater degree of self-government. He is convinced from the experience IF IT'S ABOUT AN AUTOMOBILE, C JONES Young Men, Grasp Your Opportunity!

JONES, Manager KORAGE JONES, Instructor HUDSON G. PEYER, Superintendent there that the Negro can become litter for rule in a free state. Mr. Wood's report has a certain bearing on Canada. When the question of confederation with the West Indies came up a few years ago, one of the principal arguments advanced against it was the barrier imposed by the presence of the black population. These objectors were steeped in the errors of Froude and unacquainted with the genuine ability of the Negro for self-development and progress. Under the more liberal system of government in Jamaica, moreover, the island has become prosperous, and white men are now making more money there than in the days when colored men were without the franchise. The example of Jamaica should give encouragement to the friends of the Negro in the South. Education and good treatment are what he requires there to become an industrious, prosperous and creditable part of the population. It also opens brighter prospects in the day of self-government and self-development for the British Empire.—The Border Cities Stan Windsor, Ontario. THE INCONSISTENT CIVILIZED MAN The refined, cultured modern gentleman of present-day civilization usually is legally married to just one woman. He criticizes the African because of his polygamous nature—that's his plurality of wives — notwithstanding the fact that they are all his legal wives—even if they amount to a small army at times. It is possible that one would be the favorite among so many. Nevertheless, that is a part of his social system, and he strictly abides by it. Considering all things he is honest to his convictions. This, however, cannot be truthfully said of the refined, cultured modern man of the existing civilization. He will be legally married to one, woman and entitled a horde of others secretly. Irespective of this conditioning he now it fit to criticise his so-called semi-barbatic brother. Many men use by nature polygamous — some secretly — some openly. This is principally responsible for many of the great evils which disturb or beset the present social system. We believe it would be using good judgment if the modern Chesterfieldian would stop criticizing the African or any so-called semi-barba-io people, when he honestly considers the idioyncrasies of his own social system. lai : y \ | 4 oo ae EN a _ ve 6 THE NEGRO WORLD, } [RDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1922 oa ee Sra 7 “ eases as eS GEZG A CORKING COMBINATION OFFER!

STAGES INTERESTING MEETING A NEW ORLEANS CREOLE ON THE U. N. I. A. October 28, 1923. The Miranda Division, Charter No. 608. On Sunday, Ifnd. a pleasant Sunday afternoon was held by the Miranda Branch, which was fairly attended. It was opened by an address given by the president, Mr J Watson, who, after speaking, introduced our honorable vice-president, Mr Rickett, as the chairman for the service, who, after giving a short address of welcome, took the chair The first was a song by the choir, "Sabbath Greeting," followed by a duet rendered by Mrs. E. Foster and Miss B. Thomas, a chorus by the choir, "On to the Field." A recitation by Mr. Dwyer, followed by another by Miss B. Blake, 4 years old, the audience being delighted with one so young participating in the service. The next a song by Mrs. Snipe, a recitation by Miss D. Foster, next, song by choir, Mr Jones, the vice-president of the Palmarito Chapter can, forward and gave a very eloquent speech. He said our leader, the Hon Marcar Garve, who has now put himself in the place of Moses leading the children of Israel to the Promised Land, so is he. God has now ordained him to be our leader to lead us on to that our native land, Africa, and therefore he expects every member of the race to do his duty and to do it faithfully do it truly and sincerely, which spells immediate success, never mind what others may say and do, but remember that Africa is crying to us for help and it is absolutely imperative that we do all that lies in our power to help our mother land, Africa. He ended his speech by unveiling the photo of the Hon. Marcar Garve, which was given as a present to the community by Mr J. Thomas, which was highly appreciated by many HIS HIGHNESS THE POTENTATE G. M. JOHNSON VISITS THE NEWARK DIVISION, THE QUEEN OF NEW JERSEY: GREAT WELCOME GIVEN HIM Never were more interest and enthusiasm manifested in the Newark Division than on Sunday, when His Highness the Potentate visited the Division. Although the notice was very short, the hall was packed to the uttermost and standing room was unavailable. All of the officers and members were out to welcome him on his first official visit. He was met at the railroad station by Dr. T. T. Wright, who operates a sanitarium in the city. Deputy John O'Loughlin and a detachment of Legions and Motor Corps headed by Lieutenant Corrish, and was taken to Adelbahia Hall by automobile Another detachment of Legions, Motor Corps, Black Cross Nurses and Juveniles, headed by Major Irving, formed a guard of honor and escorted His Highness to the hall where he was received by the President, Mr Oscar Dawson. The Lady President, Mrs. Emma Brown, was conspicuous among the officers for the manner in which she received His Highness. A queen could not outclass her in the manner in which she acted. The meeting was opened by the President, Oscar Dawson, in its usual form, after which the hymn, "God Bless the Potentate," was sung. The welcome address was made by Deputy John O'Loughlin, after which a musical and "literary program was rendered which culminated in a few remarks by the President and the presenting of Dr By WALTER DECOU His Excellency the Honorable Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Representatives, Ambassadors. Delegates, Officers and members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and all its auxiliaries of the African Communities League, friends and enemies: I am here before you as a spiritual instrument in the material called Walter Decou, an organ, a form of producing an articulated sound. An articulated sound is a sound that comes from the organ of speech. I am here to speak for the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and to inform the enemies and readers it is not only an association, it is also a spiritual movement. Therefore, unto the enemies who are striving to overthrow our association, they are losing their time, wherein we shall stand the more as a spiritual congregation. That determination already within you, greater determination is within me, and it is why I come spiritually to tell you positively, "Africa shall be free." Concerning myself, I am of French descent, and so as I have been handed down from France, I am raised up a Negro like you. And as I am of French descent, so I am a Negro resurrected. I am here to speak concerning the head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Honorable Marcos Garvey. I am the tail, and it is for that reason that I come spiritually, making both ends meet unto your ocheers and singing of the National Anthem. The next, a duet by Misses Ramsay and Thomas, entitled "Over the River of Light" (cheers), followed by a speech by Mr. Francis, the president of the Palmarito Chapter, who said he felt proud of standing in the midst of the congregation to speak in behalf of the U N. I. A., and now is the time of delivery and we should always have in view the motto, "One God, one aim, one destiny." Let us all say, as Nelson said in the battle of Trafalgar "England expects every man to do his duty," so do we. Our honorable leader expects us to do our duty. Join hearts and hands with determination to get the program over The president, Mr J Watson, then came forward, reviewing and laying special emphasis on the very important points raised by the two last speeches. The next, a duet sung by Misses Rammy and Foster, entitled "A Welcome to Our Sabbath Home" next. recitation by Mr Dwyer, 'U N I A A's Privilege,' which was quite appropriate. Mr Marke, the executive vicepresident, Cayo Mambi Division, came forward, giving a short address, telling us that he has devoted himself to this great movement and he wants every man to take the word U N I A A intp consideration and what it means. We all join the association, not for criticism, but for improvement He was then followed by a song by the choir, "O Bells, Peal Forth." The chairman then rose from his seat and thanked the audience for their presence and good behavior and the services came to a close by the singing of the National Anthem BLANCHE M THOMAS Central Miranda. Oriente. Cuba. T H Wright, who had the honor to introduce the Potentate. Upon rising to speak he was greeted with applause that shook the mammoth hall. His Highness modestly acknowledged samo with a bow, and proceeded to address the large audience. He said that God had a purpose in permitting the Negro to come to this Western world. Just as He had when He permitted Joseph to be sold as a slave in Egypt, and we should consider it our duty to educate the Africans in the arts of Western civilization. He also told of the wonderful work the other divisions are doing, and urged the race to assist in building up the community. The members and friends were then given the privilege of shaking the Potentate's hand. This opportunity was taken advantage of by all present. The meeting then adjourned and dinner was given in honor of the Potentate. After the dinner was over the Potentate was taken for an automobile ride through the city, where he visited Dr. Wright's sanitarium. He was profoundly impressed with the work Dr. Wright is doing for the benefit of the race in Newark. He visited several patients, and so great was his impression that he said that he would come there should he be ill while in the United States. The doctor told him that he has one of the best surgeons in the country employed, and that of the 164 operations performed they had not lost one. He left there for Montclair, N J. Thus ends the visit of His Highness to the largest Division in the State of New Jersey. On Sunday evening the secretary read the incorporation papers of the Newark Division. It will be remembered that the division was the one that had the U. N. I. A. registered in the State; now it is incorporated so that it will 'be recognized in the courts. JOHN O'LOUGHLIN. $ Sixth avenue, Newark, N. J. success. The one end is the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the other end a spiritual congregation. Therefore forming both ends together, we now form a Universal Negro Improvement Association and a spiritual congregational circle, and within that circle we have all members of our race, even unto our little Negro, Eason. This is our movement, which is moving all our little Negroes towards Africa, and are going to place them on the soil of Africa, under our African government, under our spiritual doctrine and under our Red, Black and Green. Therefore as I have left my home and met an enemy who said unto me, "Why are you a follower of Marcus Garvey, wherein he has a silver tongue?" For I said unto him, "Why are you not a follower as it?" It is for that reason I will go, and as I came here I found him not with a silver tongue, but with a spiritual gold one. Therefore I want to say unto the enemies that you believe in God, the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost, but I believe in the more the Father, the Son and Holy Ghost and a man like myself. So as the Father a man, the Son a man; so as the Father, Son and Holy Ghost a man; so as a man is a man in the name of God, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and unto those who do not understand, why not believe? For it is those that believe the same shall be saved, and as you can see of Thee, America is for the American Indian. For that reason I will go that you may see of we that "Africa shall be free." So said the spirit. NOTICE All members of the Universal Negro Improvement and especially those of the Los Amates Division in Guatemala please take notice that Mr C. A. Drummond is being expelled from the association, and this division shall not be responsible for any business transacted with him in future. (Signed) WILFRED M. BROWN, President THE BANES, CUBA, DIVISION ON THE HIGH- WAY TO SUCCESS October 22. 1922. The Banes Division is still on its way to success. Borry to say, we have had to perform some duties that were painful to us, but we believe it is for our good we have used the broom which the President-General used when he returned from Jamaica last year. All our leading officers have to relinquish their offices, some for disloyalty, others for misappropriating the funds of the division. We have to do our best to retain those who are faithful and loyal. I am very glad to say we have elected a new cabinet whose administration is working very well. Our former President, Mr A G. Burrell, who was on leave, tendered his resignation, as he has been unable to return to Cuba on account of conditions now existing. On that account we were bound to elect one of our worthy members and former Chaplain, in the person of Mr R C F Blake, a man of sterling worth and unblemished character. We feel sure that Mr Blake stands as Marcus Garvey in our division. He is fearless of criticism and a man of no mean order. We trust that having a man like him, our goal will soon be reached. Next comes another worthy character, Mr Joseph Blake, as our First Vice-President, a man who we know is conscientious and will make a noble leader of his race. We need say nothing of the other two Vice-Presidents, as they are men of ability and standing in the community, and beloved of all. Again we have many other officers who have proved themselves men of sterling worth and good character, such as Mr Charles Lewis, our former Chairman of Trustees, now Treasurer, Mr G Douglas, Executive Secretary, and many other faithful ones. The Ladies Division has also elected and installed in office the following Mrs. Mary Campbell, Lady President Associated with her are Mrs E Rhoades, Mrs. A Jones and Miss Brown, all of whom are well informed in the work and are earnest workers. We also have in the ladies department Mrs Engleton, daughter of our present Chaplain Mr C M Clarke. I am also very pleased to report that Sunday, October 22 was a day of much blessing to us as a division. At our office service the son of our esteemed President, Mr Blake, was dedicated and received under the color of the Red. Black and Green by our newly-elected Chaplain, Mr C M Clarke, and at the mass meeting night all the above mentioned officers were installed. After the preliminaries the Chaplain in a few well-chosen remarks, introduced the chairman in the person of our First Vice-President, who in a very stylish and forceful manner cogitized the President. In the course of his oration he said that without real love and unity we cannot achieve success, and asked for three hearty cheers for the President. This was well done He further expressed himself by saying that we have had Presidents in the past, but that the present one seems to excel all for his manly way of doing the business of the Association, and he encouraged our leader to lead on and on until our motherland is redeemed. Other races have their leaders, and we must have a leader in the Negro race. At this stage the President arose amid tremendous applause and installed the other officers and received one member who was present and told them that they must stand fast and fair, for there is a goal and it must be reached, and it is only through perseverance and sticktottiveness that we can achieve success. The hymn, "Fight the Good Fight," was sung by all, after which a recitation was given by Miss A. Rhoades, which was followed by a collection, taken while the Liberty Hall Choir sang the anthem, "God Reigneth." After this Mr. R. G. Murray addressed the meeting, taking as his subject "The True Leadership," referring to Moses and Paul as true leaders and trusting that our Godgiven leader, Marcus Garvey, will prove to the world to be such a leader, so that he and other leaders of our race will go down on the pages of the world's history. I am very sorry also to chronicle the death of Jeremiah Clarke, son of Mr Aaron Clarke, both of whom are members of the Division. The youngster was ill a few weeks before passing to the Great Beyond. He was about 16 years old and a member of the Boy Scouts. The funeral took place on Monday evening. A large congregation, headed by the Chaplain, the Liberty Hall Band and all the auxiliaries, marched from Liberty Hall to the home of the deceased, and from thence to the cemetery, where he was laid to rest under the colors of the Red, Black and Green. You will be done. Through all the changing seasons the faithful few fought bravely to guard the nation's life. You're for racial uplift. R. G. MURRAY. Secretary, H. A. B. Bance, Grita, Cuba.

The president of the division, Hon. Robert A. Barrett, called the meeting to order with the ode, "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," followed by the constitutional prayer by our chaplain, the honorable Thomas G. Murphy. The president made his remarks and then introduced the chairman of the evening, the honorable vice-president of the division, Mr Sydney F. Hugh Miller In taking over the chair, he said I am, indeed, glad for the honor you have conferred on me in making me the chairman for tonight. He turned to the audience: Ladies and Gentlemen— The progress of any meeting depends on the person who occupies the chair, and since we are living in such an age where every nation is looking for its rights, so I am today doing a part for the 400,000,000 Negroes.

En todas las épocas y en todas las edades ha tenido lugar la préctica de esta politica malsana. Aun refresca nuestra mente el recuerdo del sinndmero de sinsabores que, por medio de la critica mal fundada de esta plaga de pardsitos, ocacionaron al ilustre Booker T. Wash- ington, paladin de la Universidad de Tuskegee, en el estado de Alabama, colegio fundado a costa de sus grandes esfuerzos y sacrificios, para dar a la nueva generacién de nuestra raza una educacién basada en un principio fundamental Apesar de todo lo que se dijo ¢ hizo en contra del gran maestro, Booker T Washington se irgui6 como una magestuosa pirdamide en un valle de rocas. Esta claramente demostrado que a estos criticos de profesién solamente les interesa la cantidad de monedas que puedan colectar de las masas para liquidar sus propios sueldos. Les vemos siempre dispuestos a comunicar al mundo sobre el fracaso de los que se esfuerzan por realizar algo practico, pero se abstienen de comunicar a su vecino sobre sus propios fracasos. El universo entero sabe que la Asociacién Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra y sus corporaciones aladas es una insneucién que tiene por basc el enslteci- miento econémico, politico e industrial de nuestra raza, exclusivamente patrocinado por nuestro pueblo. Las aso- ciaciones creadas por estos intelectuales, patrocinadas por elementos de otras razas, para atacar los principios funda- mentales de nuestra orgamizacién, no han expuesto aun a Ja sancién publica, la eficiencia de un programa que revele sus propésitos loda vez que estos intelectuales poseen toda la sabiduria del mundo, ¢porqué no cooperar con el Hon. Marcus Garvey, nuestra organizacién y sus corporpora- ciones aliadas, cuyo esfuerzo no es simplemente la ayuda de individuos para individuos, sino realzar la raza de la actual condicién poco favorable a una era 4° prosperidad ? Si estos genios poseen la abilidad de ejecutar conciente- mente, ¢porqué no dar a su propia raza el beneficio de tales virtudes> Cuando los tal llamados directores e intelectuales de la raza aprendan a cooperar y a ayudarse mutuamente con el objeto de mejorar las condiciones de las masas, entonces y solamente entonces podran ellos interpretar lo que direccién significa. Direccién no significa oposicién, critica destructiva, malicia, envidia, intrigas; direcci6n| implica cooperacién con todos y cada uno de aquellos que, se interesan en el bien comin. Estos sefiores i debieran aprender algo mas acerca del significado de direccion, en vez de hablar de su inmaculada perfeccién y de los defectos de los dems. Nada eficiente, ningun resultado practico hemos visto que hayan obtenido los que han criticado y aun critican nuestras actividades en beneficio de los intereses generales de la raza. Tal actitud tiende a detenernos en la marcha de avance que hemos emprendido en el camino del pro- greso, delineado por nuestra organizacién. Una y otra vez hemos ofrecido a nuestros opositores la oportunidad de adherirse a este magno movimiento, para que demuestren sus abilidades como directores, sin haber obtenido aun la cortesia de una respuesta adecuada. La Asoclacién Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra esta determinada a que los enemigos del progreso del Negro no hayan de destruir la gloria de nuestra esperanzas.

Les Bareos Como Territorio La decision del juz Hand, suple- mentaria a la de hace una semana, -de que los buques de los Estado ‘Unidos, donde quiera que ee hallen, ‘son territorio amertcano, y estén por ‘consiguiente sujetos a la déctmoc- ‘tava enmenda y a la ley Volstead, y, bao la prohbicién fe conduen licores, era de esperar ¢ inevitable. Aparte del luyfnoso razonamiento del yuer Hand'¥ de su examen de los precedentes, el profano, himedo 6 seco, adlo tiene que seguir el sen- ‘udo comun ordinario para convent con él en que “seria una cosa curio- sa el que un pais, que declarara bajo sus leyes fundamentales prohibit el uso de intoxicantes, hubiera de de- jarlos sin reparo en los buques que navegan bajo eu bandera.” Para el profano, en espera de la decision de la suprema corte en es- tos fallos sobre el problema de los icores en los barcos, un parrafo en el decreto del juer Hand puede ofre- cer un poco de reflexién y duda. “Un buque de matricula de Ins Estados Unidos que ee halle en el ‘mar 6 en un puerto extranjero se halla dentro del alcance de la en- mienda y de la clausula 3.” Esto es, st ponemos dos opiniones juntas, resulta que un buque amers- cano en alta mar 6 en aguas tern- ‘toriales es. en cierto sentido, terri- toro americano y esta dentro del al- cance de la octava enmienda y la ley Volstead Esto parece una gran extension de la hasta aqui limitada aphicacion de la ley muntcipal a los buques extranjeros en nuestros puertos y aguas jurisdiccionales Variedades Sobre el Aisla miento | La reciente protesta contra el de- partamento de estado en relacion con los asuntos del cercano oriente ‘recuerda la comunicacion del pre- sidente Monroe al congreso hace cien afios. En 1822 los sufrimien- tos de la poblacién cristiana deGre- ‘cia inspiraron un parrafo elocuente jen el mensaje presidencial que pre- -cedio solo en unos cuantos meses a ‘su gran documento sentando los Pineipies de la Doctrina Monroe. 1 prudente secretarto de estado, John Quincy Adams, era inquietado por indignados lamamuentos ur- ‘giéndole a alguna forma de inter- vencién en favor de “nuestros her- ‘manos en creencias”. Uno de los apelantes que tenia tendencias a las metaforas declaré que 3,000 tira- dores de Kentucky se hallaban listos “para coger sus largos fusiles y saltar como ardillas” en protecci6n de las muyeres y nifios oprimidos de Morea Fue solo la determinacion de Adams de seguir los principios de Washington y Hamuiton los que im- pidieron la inclusién, un afio mas tarde, de alguna reftrencta activa a los griegos, en el gran manifiesto sobre la politica de los Estados Uni- dos. Tal politica, declaraba, impli- caba en cambio una rigida absten- cidn de los asuntos puramente de interés surepee El paralelo histérico pudiera ha- ber sido seguida hasta incluir la po- litica_britanica lo mismo que la de los Estados Unidos. Bonar Law recientemente empled la frase de Canning pronunciada un siglo antes delante de las potencias de ia Santa Ahanza Inglaterra debe reasumir su asslamiento. Trazar una linea de separacién entre una politica de razonable alejamiento y una de “prejuicio insular” ha ‘do una difi- cil tarea para generaciones sucesivas de estadistas. Canning fué acusado de insularismo por Metternich y to- dos los estadistas reaccionarios de las potencins que formaban la “Liga de Paz” del zar Alejandro. No obs- tante, ef desenvolvimiento de la st- tuacién demostrd que é! era el mis sincero de los idealistas. El resulta- do de la “sublime idea” del zar fué una ciega devocién al principio de Ia solidaridad europea que terminé por sostener los derechos legitimos del sultén a exterminar como “rebeldes” a las poblaciones cristianas del im- perio Tal paradoja no ha sido re- petida hasta que los politicos fran- ceses “trataron de sdquirit Prestigio en tos paises islamicos a expensas de su descrédito en los Estados Uni- dos”, con su apoyo de un smperialis- no turco milagrosamente resucitado.

W. H. MOSES PRESIDENT OF NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION OF UNITED STATES President Sims of New York Colored Baptist Convention Writes Leaders of Three Million Baptists to Meet at St. Louis, Mo., December 6-11, 1922 To the Baptists of the United States of America, Greetings; In keeping with the request of "The National Baptist Voice," the official organ of the National Baptist Convention of the U. B. A., to submit the names of candidates for president of the convention, as president of the New York Colored Baptist State Convention I wish to announce that New York Baptists will nominate or give the convention the opportunity to nominate Dr. W. H. Moses for president in the coming session at St. Louis, Mo., December 6 to 11. The Platform The platform upon which we offer Dr. Moses to the country is as follows: 1. That he will carry out the purposes of the original organizers of the convention; as set forth in its constitution in Atlanta, Ga., 1893, and as revised and amended since that time and as it may be amended. 2. That he will endeavor to unite the colored Baptist family in the one original "National Baptist Convention of the U. S. A." in keeping with the spirit, purpose and efforts of Dr. E. C. Morris and R. H. Boyd, who were the most distinguished founders, and their followers, and their followers who held a "get-together" meeting in Memphis and Nashville. Tennessee, since the division in Chicago, and in keeping with the "get-together" spirit expressed by Dr. Morris in the following letter sent to Dr. Boyds: Helena, Ark., Aug. 28, 1832. Editor J. D. Crenshaw, National Baptist Voice, Nashville, Tenn.: Dear Brother—After coming to Little Rock today I learned of the death of Dr. Royd and that the funeral will be Monday. I regret very much that it will not be possible for me to attend its memorial. I first met Dr. Boyd in 1883 and our acquaintance grew into warm friendship and remained for many years. It was due largely to his influence in 1891 that I accepted the presidency of the National Baptist Convention. At that time we were very warm personal friends. He was a man of broad vision and very profile in thought. We did not always agree, but our disagreement never broke our personal esteem for each other. He was one of the promoters of the organization of the National Baptist Convention, which grew out of the three conventions which met at Atlanta, Ga., in 1895, and was a hearty supporter of that organization until 1914. I met and talked with him on board the train going through Mississippi in 1920. At this time he was dealing very keenly the effect of the division which had taken place among the Baptists, but seemed to have been surrounded by inflows which he could not control, but Dr. Boyd had his own ideas upon these matters. To him was very largely due the co-operation between the Southern Baptist Convention and the National Baptist Convention in missionary work. In later years the Southern Baptist Convention opened a declaration of opposition to board control, but Dr. Boyd had his own ideas about these matters. His death moves from among Baptists of this country one of the most unique characters that have lived in the last half century. The sympathy of the people throughout the country goes out to his bereaved family. E. C. MORRIS. Before the echo of that splendid tribute to Dr. Roya's spirit of peace and organic union had time to ring the walkin throughout the colored Baptist family. Dr. Morris joined his company in tribulations and life-long descentimental endeavor. Dr. Moses, who was a young admirer and bosom friend of both to the day of their death, said is as: "The denomination owes an enduring debt of gratitude to Dr. Morris and Boyd which can be practically paid by furnishing their deepest dying desire for a united colored Baptist family to efficiently complete the work which they began and to that and I will dedicate the supreme efforts of my remaining days." world, in which all are for each and each for all. 7. That, if elected, Dr. Moses will do all in his power to reunite the National Baptist Convention without violating any principle or policy which the majority of those electing him may deem vital, with the distinct understanding that he purposes to voluntarily resign whatever "get-together" negotiations shall have been perfected to the point where each group desires to have a fair field to elect a president upon which a majority of the "get-together" representatives may agree, and that he will use his influence to have the convention so amend its Constitution that no president may succeed himself more than two or four consecutive years.

Adams entitled in "The Saturday Dilea," Chicago, IL. Reproduced in "The Negro World," New York City, November 4, 1922.) By MUBERT J. COX There was a time when education was not general, neither were schools aided by the State, printing was limited and the dissemination of knowledge (books) only within the reach of the fortunate. The Negro at this time was a slave in every sense of the word. The scene is changed; stirring events through Lincoln's undaunted courage culminated in his abolishing the physical slavery of Negroes as just in the sight of the law. That the Negro is an "alien and unassimilable material in the body politic of the nation" is nothing new; this is conceded because reason has supplanted vain hope and the Negro finds himself advancing to more creditable place in the affairs of the world. An impartial inquiry and analysis of the Negro in America will discover that the constitution, worked with an understanding of the past, the needs of the present and problems of the future, did not take into consideration the Negro as human, requiring at that time "free and equal" liberty and "the pursuit of happiness." Time moves on making sport of the artificial barriers set by man in his endeavor to keep conditions as they are to his liking or otherwise influence them in the direction he would have them go. We are familiar with the successive stages of events, environment, circumstance and change that have brought the Negro into the limelight and now face an anxious world to meet him without mental reservation, hypocrisy, cant and humbug. A futile attempt to deny the Negro the fruits of his advancement and the preachments of democracy is "the literary test." It cannot succeed. In the South, where the majority of Negro schools in terms of population and taxation is ridiculously small when compared with other groups. Why? In spite of this, understanding is intelligent and "mother's wit" daily confounds white folks. I shall now take up the gauntlet thrown at us. Professor Adams says "today that illiterate Negro may be the chief menace to our democratic government." This is tragic if not amusing in its falsehood. Where is the Negro majority, politically speaking, in any State of the Union controlling its policy? Lacking this it is stupid to ask the same question regarding the House of Representatives and Congress. Will Professor Adams please enlighten us? The quotations used refer to the particular statements of the professor. He desires "a national policy with a frank and clear declaration in our federal constitution that the United States is a white man's government." It is still not sufficiently clear that in the body politic of the nation the Negro is a rank outsider; in the several branches of the federal government a Negro works here and there more as a mascot than an asset. This open request will convince Negroes as to the mind attitude of influential white men; it will cure the light-headed ones among us of their vain hopes. I can almost concede to Professor Adams his point of this being a "white man's government"; while calling his attention to the "not that we are very much engaged in letting the white world know our attitude in this respect. It is not amiss to remind the learned professor that Negroes have an historic home, traditions, customs and usages—these were suppressed and had become almost extinct in our memory while sojourning in a foreign land. The signs of the time should influence the professor to moderate his views and change his dogmatic conclusions. "In the Southern States the qualifications for voting are such that only the more intelligent Negro can qualify, and as a result the Negro is less of a political problem than in the Northern States, where no safeguards are placed about the ballot." Peculiar contradictions and, as it were, a paradoxical situation have always kept the Negro in the forefront of internal affairs in America. I shall summarize briefly a long period of history. The Northern States found it impossible to complete with the South, that hold slave, and consequently were able to sell cotton to foreign markets lower on account of free (slave) labor; during the activities to abolish slavery the Northern States gave help to the cause, as it would then place them in a better position for competition; when, however, the Negro had full political recognition, the Northern States again maneuvered with the South and placed the Negro back into political slavery. It is to be borne in mind that the South lost its proud position when the North through industry and machinery commenced to control and handle shipping by its more favorable position to Europe. If the Negro is a "menace" in the South and the ballot is "safeguarded" in the North, where Negro votes unmolested, he is too much in the minority to seriously affect the several points at issue. Surely the error is not on the part of the Negro. Continuing he says: "It is almost impossible to make of him (the Negro) a superior workman, and it is equally difficult to advance his standards of living." Shades of Brixton ethnography in his "Names of Mankind." Take time, professor. In reply to the first part of Professor Adams' statement, I suggest that he writes to any of the several automobile, industrial and engineering plants in Detroit, Illinois. ATTENTION!

He will find that he is wrong. In regard to the second part, I feel sure that whatever economics the professor knows he does not bring it into play when discussing the Negro. It is an oversight that alips his memory and attention when he fails to recall that an individual cannot live higher than the wages he receives permit. That in slavery the Negro had no redress. He simply reflected the peculiar conditions of his servitude. Millions of Negro homes all over the States show a decided improvement in proportion to better wages. Cleaner recreation is induged in. Y. M. C. A.'s libraries, lecture halls, churches, correspondence courses, night schools are attended, and the Negro gradually advances to the next step in his round of evolutionary development. The Romans said the Anglo-Saxons were too dull to be slaves, yet today the Anglo-Saxons lead the world. Where are the Romans? The brilliancy of the Negro in slavery is known, and his distinct contribution to "Who Made America," recognized at the last exposition held at the Seventy-first Regiment Armory, New York city. "It is his nature to be easily satisfied, and he does not take kindly to hard work or economy today in order to improve his condition tomorrow. the Negro, generation after generation, continues to have no ambition other than a shatter and food for his immediate need and a passing satisfaction for his appetites and fancies." This is a lai. Negroes have the capacity for hard work and have shown greater resistance to fatigue when the other factors have been equal. The ambitions of Negroes are legion, and from out of the most unfavorable conditions shining lights have developed, an inspiration to all mankind. The tendency of all bodies is for rest and ease. Then the Negro resting or appearing his desires within the radius of his powers is natural. The Negro did not take kindly to slavery, as the wars of the Ashanis, Zulus, Basutus, etc., will prove. When the Negro, after his failure to withhold himself from slavery, reaches that conclusion, he by a unconscious diplomacy felt the odds were against him and he must bide his time. Again, miscegenation was a weapon from which he had no redress. Slaves themselves entered the arena of deviltry to escape the hell of the plantation; the more fortunate, the offspring of lecherous drivers, oversizers and even owners, was a willing tool to find out dissatisfaction and report on every attempt the slaves would make to show their inherent dislike of their condition. Again he writes, "The solution of this economic phase of the race question . . . rests in finding some field of labor for which the Negro is especially fitted and surrendering that弱 to him. He can be used to advantage in the cotton belt of the United States under white direction and management." Prof. Adams, why do you fear the release of the Negro in the United States from peonage and serfdom? The majority of the Negroes may remain in the South, but not as a "solution of the race question." When the new racial consciousness has gripped the Negro in the "cotton belt" and he becomes an intelligent factor in that or any other section of the country, he will be an asset to himself and to those who will, of necessity, cater to his solidarity in this ever-changing scheme of national ambitions, avarice and greed. "Lochie's Warning" comes to my mind at this juncture; "for the lowlands did meet them in battle array." The laws of association would not permit any individual, even if he exerts a conscious intentional effort to overcome the indirect influence of contact; then, again, the cumulative effects of constant repetitions make inroads into the deeper feelings only to react at more favorable periods. It is strange that after these many years Prof. Adams refuses to admit that nature has left out no important part whatever in the make-up of the Negro; that this being so, the Negro will play his part on the stage when the time arrives. Is he not doing so now? At least his Herculean efforts for progress and advancement are apparent. In conclusion, Prof. Adams says, "as long as the trainer (white) has his pistol and whip he gets on very well with the lion (Negro), but if he lays aside these agencies (weapons) and attempts to deal with the lion (Negro) as an equal sooner or later the trainer (white) disappears." Very good, professor. What man has done, man can do. The pistol and whip are not invincible. They are not agencies that will baffle the lion without the slightest chance of his ever achieving their stifult use in self-defense than in aggression. It is to laugh. This bluff is going to be called. You admit the possibility of the trainee disappearing at the hands of the lion. To good, even predict their own downfall, I have met you on your grounds with everything in your favor; what of the time when you meet me on mine? In the light of a so-called civilization, democracy and higher ideals would it not be better to face the facts in the light of reason and an honest solution aimed at or based on equity, justice and mutual respect* Millions of the unborn of these opposing groups will face this issue in bloody and serious combat and I predict that the sons of Ham and daughters of Ethiopia will not be found wanting in resourcefulness to bring victory to the land of our forfathers. The Negro, true friend of America, is constantly rebuked, his affections will undergo a change. Prof. Adama, I desire to call your attention to J. A. Rogers' *Supreman to Man*"; the Negro has been discussed scientifically, historically, in the light of reason and facts; the race question is then of easy solution if there is an honest attempt to treat the case according to the finding of competent opinion. Negroes everywhere are wide awake and can only stop now and then from our busy enterprises to set you right and let public opinion understand that we hold our own brief and defend ourselves from any attack NOTICE To All Divisions and Members of the Universal African Black Cross Nursea All Black Cross Nurse units must secure competent instructors to teach in first aid, community health work and home hygiene and care of the sick.

Whom when I hang my sorrow-laden head Attempt to comfort me with words of cheer And tell me that my heart which now seems dead, Will sing with joy again within a year.
