The Negro World

ARE MOROCCANS AND ALGERIANS NEGROES? VOL. XIII. No. 23 FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Grecting: A few days ago the New York "World" gave out a statement in which the French were quoted as saying that the Moroccan troops they are using in the invasion of Germany are not to be classified as Negroes because they are not of that race. The same paper on Monday, January 15, published a confirmatory statement of Drs. Clark Wissler and Franz Boaz, the latter a professor of anthropology at Columbia University. These gentlemen uphold the statement of the French that Moroccans and Algerians are not Negroes. How the French and these gentlemen arrive at such a conclusion is marvelous to understand, but I feel it is the old-time method of depriving the Negro of anything that would tend to make him recognized in any useful occupation or activity. With these anthropologists it is always the custom that whenever a black man, whether he be Moroccan, Algerian or Senegalese or what not accomplishes anything of importance, he is no longer a Negro. The question therefore suggests itself, "Who, and what is a Negro?" The answer is: "A Negro is a person of dark complexion or race, who has not accomplished anything and to whom others are not obligated for any useful service." If the Moroccans and Algerians were not needed by France at this time to augment their occupation in Germany or to save the French nation from extinction they would have been Negroes as usual, but now that they have rendered themselves useful to the higher appreciation of France they are no longer members of the Negro race, but can be classified in a higher type as made out by these two professors above mentioned. PREJUDICE CAUSED BY CONDITION This proves the argument of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at all times that the prejudice against us as Negroes is not because of our color but because of our condition. If black men throughout the world will render themselves so independent and useful as to be sought out by other race groups it will simply mean that all the problems of race will be smashed to pieces, and the Negro would be regarded like anybody else, a man to be respected and admired. But whether these professors or France desires to make the Moroccans other than Negroes we are satisfied that their propaganda before has made these people to understand that their destiny is linked up with all other men of color throughout the world, and now that the hun- A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race NS AND ALGERI FRENCE AND TWO AMERICAN ANTHRO- OLOGISTS SAY NO FOR CONVENIENCE! CAN A BLACK MAN CHANGE HIS SKIN? ALL GOOD AND CREDIT WHEN VISIBLE TAKEN FROM RACE! ONCE A NEGRO ALWAYS A NEGRO, IF WE MUST BE NEGROES! dreds of millions of darker peoples are looking toward one common union and destiny through the effort of universal co-operation we have no fear that the Moroccans and Algerians will take care of the situation in France and Germany peculiar to the interest of Negroes throughout the world. Let us not be flattered by the anthropologists and statesmen who from time to time because of our success here, there or anywhere try to make out that we are no longer members of the Negro race. If we were Negroes when we were down under the heel of oppression then we will be Negroes when we are up and liberated from such thralldom. The Moroccans and Algerians have a splendid opportunity for now proving the real worth of the Negro in Europe, and we would not be surprised that one of these fine days Africa will colonize Europe, even as Europe has been endeavoring to colonize the world for hundreds of years. We trust the Moroccan and Algerian troops of occupation in Germany will come to their senses and realize that their first duty and their interest are linked up with the four hundred million Negroes of the world, and whatsoever they do should be done from that point of view. THE POSSIBILITIES FOR 1923 The year 1923 opens up brilliantly with suggestive opportunities for the Negro race, and we should not fail to take advantage of them. From indications we are led to conclude that the European disturbance of 1914-1918 is but half patched, and at any time the old sore of hatred and animosity will break out which will result in the infliction of a larger political wound than Europe has experienced before. Any political upheaval in Europe similar to the one of 1914-1918 is bound to present the opportunity to the four hundred million Negroes of the world to further advance their cause for African liberation, and we hope that the Senegalese, Moroccan and Algerian troops will not forget that the Negro's first duty anywhere when the tide turns is to strike the blow for African freedom. Reaching the Mass of Negroes The Best Advertising Medium PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GREATER NEW YORK TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES SEVEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U. S. A. We are tired of being shunted and shifted here, there and everywhere to please the fancy and change of mind of anthropologists and statesmen. When it is to their interest they make us Negroes or something else, but if we were Negroes yesterday surely we are satisfied to be Negroes today. THE SOUTH AFRICAN A similar situation arose in South Africa not longer than twelve months ago when the natives started to press the limited white population to the wall in the demand for "Africa for the Africans." the prejudiced Boers and South Africans were willing then to let down the color bar and admit to their ranks, socially and otherwise, the half-breed colored people whom they once classified as impossible hybrids to be despised both by whites and natives. Now they are making an effort to make common cause with these so-called half-breeds of South Africa so as to strengthen their position against the threatening ascendancy of the demand for a free and redeemed Africa for the blacks of the world. These people, anthropologists and statesmen will seek every opportunity to fraternize with any race in the world, even the one despised yesterday, if by so doing they can strengthen their position, whether it be in Europe, Africa or elsewhere, but it is for us as four hundred million people who have been discriminated against throughout the world to take a decided stand so that whether we are Moroccans, Algerians, Senegalese or Western Negroes the time is for us to stand together as one mighty whole and strike a universal blow for our liberation and for better recognition. LET NEGROES STAND TOGETHER Let every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association fight toward the end of a united race. Let Negroes everywhere make it the higher purpose in life that we stand together and fall together. Let us support the Universal Negro Improvement Association, therefore, to further scatter its propaganda throughout the world. Send us your financial help and give us your moral support, and if this is properly done we feel sure that in a short while we will bring the drunken world to its sober senses.

The program was as follows: 1 Selection by the University Band. 2 Summary of the work of the Ladies of the Royal Court of Ethiopia by Miss Sidra Parham, general secretary of the court. 3 Holo by Miss Agatha Cook, a loyal member of the Ladies Court, accompanied by Prof Harvey Baker. 4 Draft reading by Mrs Charles J.

Special notice must be made of Mrs Scott's dream reading, which was executed with great art and feeling and the tedious emotions applauded. The secretary Miss Parham, in a most lively speech, described the history of the court and explained in a brief way its conquered plans for service, which she and were unlimited. The program over the speeches followed Hon Marcus Gaynor discussed on the subject, "The Pleasure of Service. Service is given through the Universal Negro Improvement Association, he said was delightful in the universal responsiveness that was found among the people whom he served. Of the association Mr. Gaynor said that no other complaint could be arrived at than that at this time the association is undergoing the greatest period of success for it has laid a foundation that will last forever. We are passing through at this hour he added a period of spiritual supplication which will ultimately break out in a free and new enthusiasm the like of which was never seen before. The association he said, in spite of its setbacks and handicaps, had accomplished things which were astonishing and that amused the world, and now we are about to off our banner anew to go forth in the year 1923 to fight a battle for African freedom as it never was fought by man before. He pointed hopefully to the tense situation in Europe with a degree of certainty that out of it would come the complete emancipation of the Negro and his repatriation to his motherland, Africa. He urged strongly, however, that preparedness was necessary. The Negro lost out in the last war because he was not prepared, he had no program nor policy, and none was given no consideration. When the next war comes he declared we must ready with a program and our program will be a free and independent Africa and an industrially educational and politically emancipated Negro race everywhere. While making the announcement on the evening Mr. Garvey referred sympathetically to the death of the late W. W. Eason who was formerly committed with the orphing. His reference to Mr. Lason was mentioned in the fact that two members of the institution in New Orleans had been as rested and lead on a new way. He was the city of the most important place in the world. The Pleasure of Service the subject.

She took her place at the board alongside the other girls and the teacher observed that this girl was not writing and questioned her about it. The girl replied that she could not write what was given her, and the latter was reported to the principal. When the girl saw that the thing was getting serious she wrote on the board that 'the white race is the greatest race in the world - so they say' (Applause). They wanted to put her out of the school, but the girl held out, and, like a true member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association she won out (Applause) Time to Call a Halt It is time, continued Mr Boston that we call a halt to the white man's propaganda, which tries to discount everything in the world that is not white.

It is a titing, may I add in all candor, which all self-respecting Americans of color do not desire. And he deserved the son of mine will ever deny the name or his blood on his tradition. To proxibe a youth because of his race is a procedure as novel at Harvard until one introduction as it is unnatural. However unpopular the Jew the Irishman and the Negro may be in certain minds and certain sections and at certain times wartime not being one, the fact remains that the distribution of human excellence in each of these races as in the case of every other race begins at zero and ends at infinity. Shall Harvard Be Less Humane? The difference in racial excellence consist in the comparative numbers of individuals to be found on the higher ranks of the vast number of human quality and serviceability. And the relative values of the racial stocks of mankind enlarge as one must concede an exceedingly delicate and difficult indeed perilous task. Shall Harvard Be Less Humane? Who shall prescribe a Straus, Humbert to a longgess of his eye? The particular individual may be a personality of charm and power a prospect absolutely apart from the theoretical frequency of inferiorities in the race. From kindergarten to university I wouldain believe the spirit of education approaches children and youth as individuals, not as racial symbols. Even courts of law deal with men upon their ascertained merits as individuals. Shall a world-famed nursery of the humanities be less humane? After Charles W. Elliot, Harvard cannot escape the grave responsibilities of leadership in American life. And one leads by ascent to higher levels after the manner of scholar and statesman, of poet and prophet—and by descent.

A., places the whole responsibility on the shoulders of Halph De Chabert for the present revolting economic chans in the state. I have written this declares Mr. Abramson, to let the world know how this Negro Judas Isacriot has betrayed his own people" Mr. Abramson's letter follows: Dear Mr. Editor—please publish in your valuable paper the sufferings of our laboring people in St. Croix. The people are suffering today, and I say the cause of it all is due to the wilful ignorance of Ralph De Chabert, former president of the St. Croix Labor Union. This cringing Negro in 1921 wrote the planters demanding $1.33 per day at a time when he knew they could not get it. At this same time, during a strike which lasted for thirteen weeks, he, as head of the labor union, was obligated by his union laws to support the people. He gave food to some, and to many others nothing. The government appointed a Labor instruction nor a social club, but a center of enlightenment and idealism and service rendered holy by aspiring centuries. "Few words in the English language, I submit, are susceptible of more polignant abuse than two you have seen fit to employ. The first is 'race', the second 'incessity'. As the one is often nothing more than a term of social convenience, so the other is quite often a means to buttress prejudice. But veritas is less elusive." DR.

I am opposed "President Lencertius E. W. wired The New York World, 'to every form of racial discrimination in the universities of our heterogeneous democracy. Any such discrimination would violate such precious Harvard traditions." Dr Elliot's message contradicts the statement of Dr Lowell, who in a letter to Rousee Coomling Bruce of Kendall W.

JANUARY 20, 1923 Contradicts Lowell --- Boston Was Shocked When the Boston Daily Globe State "Old Time Graduates Protest Jim-Crow Policy in Excluding Negroes From Dormitories" By WILLIAM H. PERRIS HARVARD'S GORGEOUS RECORD This caused a garp when it was recalled that Harvard had ignored an irrational color prejudice in the past and honored men of color who had been elected class orators, served as commencement speakers, won scholarships and fellowships, literary and oratorical prizes and represented her on athletic and debating teams. Harvard has stood foremost among American universities in championing and building cultural, Christian and democratic ideals. She has dared to practice what churches, other universities and patriotic orators have preached. She has stood with her feet firmly planted on the earth, but with head looking towards the eternal state, minored by the idols of the crowd and the marketplace, by the gifts of millions, the smiles of aristocrats and the flavors of natu From the days when Dr Charles W. Elliot, president emeritus, established the elective system amid protests, made the Harvard Divinity School an undenominational school for the study of religion and, with Prof C. Langdell, introduced the case system of studying law at the Harvard Law School. Harvard has been a leader rather than a follower of publication. She was fortunate in having upon her faculty men of wealth and so prestige like Charles Ellis, Norton and A. S. But men of distinguished family and exceptional ability like W. J. James and Dean C. C. Everett and men of amuseative genius like J. Rosey, whose bread and butter and intellectual and social standing did not depend upon their connection with taoic severity. These, coupled with her close proximity to Boston with her traditions of freedom and liberty has created Harvard to be bold and fearless in championing the ideals of the true good and the beautiful whether the mob, the new man and the a-tac politicians applauded or not. The Growth of Southern Prejudice Harvard has been like a powerful man living in a malarial climate. He must always be careful not to let his system get run down and take quinine occasionally, or else the insidious disease will get a stranglehold upon him. Some twenty-five years ago the South began to inaugurate the "Jim Crow polley" on her railroads and to extend it to her street cars. Twenty years ago, with his delegate optimum Dr Booker T. Washington made light of it. The American Negro as a whole did not become alarmed until the late spring of 1913, when President Woodrow Wilson began to extend it to the government departments. And he did not fully realize the real power and strength of the insidious Jim Crow propaganda until it sought to take captive fair France in the year 1918, where the Negro soldier went forth to battle manfully and shed his life blood in order to save the white man's civilization and make the world safe for democracy. As long as Southern attesters were willing and content to confine the Jim Crow' policy to the Southern States of America, to the small section of the earth which they ruled, no one seriously objected. But when they sought to spread a doctrine at variance with the ideals of culture civilization Christianity and democracy over the entire civilized world then it became not only a challenge to the black man but a slander upon the Almighty and blasphemy against the Most High.

The mention of Negro at tendency is being in societies with special respect to Harvard was to ported to have aroused heated discussion.

Burlingham 79, New York, Alfred Jareczki 81, John Reynolds 07, and Edward Eyre Hunt, 10. Two Negroes were permitted in the freshman dormitories during the year 1904. C. Hunt and V. M. Knox, Jr., were excluded, taking quarters elsewhere. A storm promises to develop over the university's stand on the question, as intimated by President Lowell. President Lowell in his reply to Mr. Reynolds, a reckless report and emphasized his decision He wrote I am sure that you do not feel the responsibility of our position about the freeman dormitories. It is not a departure from the past to refuse to compel white and colored men to room in the same building. We owe to the colored man the same opportunities for education that we do to the white man, but we do not owe to him to force him and the white into social relations that are not or may not be mutually coadjunct. Would Increase Preludice. We give him freely opportunities for room and board when it is voluntarily, but it are as one that for the colored man to obtain that he is entitled to have the white man compelled to live with him is a very unfortunate innovation which for from doing him good would increase a prejudice that as you and I will thoroughly agree a most unfortunate and probably growing. On the other hand to maintain that compulsions residence in the freshman dormitories—which has proved a great benefit in breaking up the social classes that did much injury to the college—should not be established for 29% per cent of the students because the remaining one-half of 1 per cent could not properly be included, seems to me an untenable position. He getting very much that we should not agree upon the wisdom of the policy adopted for the freshman dormitories, I am. "Very truly yours." very truly yours Mr Bruce, in a reply dated January 9, made an earnest plea that Harvard should not join in the growing preju gins to overcome the poison, urio acid, your blood becomes pure. No more sore, stiff, aching joints. No more Solistias, Lumbago; all the rheumatic, neuralgic pains gone. Don't delay. Why suffer any longer? lice which Dr Lowell mentioned: The reply follows: "Yes, the wind just now is blowing in the direction of increased prejudice toward Americana of African descent. The same phenomenon is observed in the case of Irish Catholics and of Jews. But the course of high-minded leadership is not determined by the shifting of such winds. Harvard is under no obligation, you inform me, to "force" the man of color and the white man into "social rela- tions that are not, or may not be, mu- tually congenial." The rooming of boys in the same building is the present Social Intimacy Voluntary When I go to New York City I stop at the Astor. Should I reach Boston tomorrow I should stop at the Parker House. In either of these buildings there may be at the same time men and women of pure Anglo-Saxon blood and tradition from the Southern States. We live for the time being under the same roof. We walk the same halls and floors. We sit in the same lobby. A social relation is constituted thereby in the same sense that residence in the same block or city or State or nation or ruling in the same street car constitutes a social relation of a certain order; thus social intimacy there is none—unless it be entirely voluntary on both sides. Social intimacy is no more compitable in the case of the Freshman Hall of Harvard than in the case of the hotel. Here are Smith from Texas and Jones from Mississippi illly-white freshmen, living in the same hall. Does the university undertake to force Smith and Jones into social intimacy? Certainly not. A college dormitory. I know is not a hotel, but in essential the analogy holds. Beullons and thieves may sleep under the same roof with aristocrats and saints, but social intimacy does not result necessarily, nor does the question of this congeniality of the mechanical relation of abode even arise. "Of Course | Protest." I suppose that none may deny that being members of the same college class is a social relationship. Being members of the same university is certainly one. If the principle which you are applying to the present case of rooming in the same building is conceded, the day may come when it will be applied to the class, the classroom, the campus, the university itself. Of course, I protest. "Is it fair to say that this Is not a departure from the past?" Hitherto Harvard—and it is not the attitude of a group of private persons, but that of a renowned university affected by a public interest that is at issue—has looked upon the individual student as an individual and not as a racial symbol. It has extended to him all its facilities with exclusive regard not to his ancestry but to himself. And one does not, I submit, determine questions of principle by percentages. "Wanted that the wind just now is blowing in the direction of reaction, does it behove a great and responsible centre of enlightenment to be caught like some paltry straw, in the gust?

But a policy that officially recognizes and sanctions and accentuates racial incompatibilities among the diverse elements of our population conduces not to the stability of our institutions. "Impress, if you will, upon the Irishman (not forgetting the 'Roman Conquest' of Massachusetts mentioned by Mr. Many), or the Jew or Negro the idea that the oldest and noblest of our universities shares the conviction of the Ku Klux Klan that, no matter what his charm and gift and serviceability as an individual, he can be no full-fledged American because of the very blood in his veins, you manufacture griefs in the present and prepare for the future—strife. ... "And I speak not as a radical, but as a conservative." James Weldon Johnson, as Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, wrote President Lowell in part as follows: "May I be permitted to amend your statement so that it will accord with the facis? Your statement should read: "I am sure you will understand why, from the beginning, we have thought it expedient to compel men of different races to reside apart." "May I further suggest that Harvard's surrender of its traditions and the traditions of liberal America to the slaveholder's prejudice intensifies the very problem which you as Harvard's spokesman are professing to meet. Such amelioration of race problems as has been brought about in this country has occurred in large measure through Southern students who were met in Northern universities by an uninchilling affirmation of the equality of all men in the realm of the arts and of learning. "One of the most liberalizing influences on the Southern racial situation has been that the traditional stand of Harvard has offered to Southern white students the opportunity of coming to know as human beings their fellow-colored students with whom they were associated. Deprive those Southern students of their last opportunity to learn the tolerance that comes of living with and understanding men of all races, man with whom they will have perceive to live and mingle in the United States, and Harvard University helps mightly to darken the future of the United States; for by capitulating to anti-Negro prejudice, in the fresh man domiciliaries or anywhere else Harvard University affirms that prejudice and strengthens it and, in quite into effect the program proclaimed the infamous Ku Klux Klan and apologists."

GAS IN STOMACH IS DANGEROUS Recommends Daily Use of Magnesium to Overcome Trouble Caused by Fermenting Food and Acid Indigestion Gas and wind in the stomach, accompanied by that full, bloated feeling after eating, are almost certain evidence of the presence of acid in the stomach, creating so-called "acid indigestion." Acid stomachs are dangerous because too much acid irritates the dilute lining of the stomach, often leading to gastritis, accompanied by serious stomach ulcers, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the vital internal organs, often affecting the heart. It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or to treat with ordinary digestive aids which have no effect. It is better to treat instead get from any drunken, few ounces of Bisurated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after part. This will dilute the gas, wind and bleat right out of the stomach. It will also trazalize the excess acid and prevent inflammation, and there is no source of pain. Bisurated Magnesia (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk) last harmless to the stomach, insensitive for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion.

And that is the real issue at stake in the so-called American rate problem. Every man knows that he does not take as a social companion everyone who lives 1 the same block. lodges m the same hotel, boards in the same restaurant or rides on the same bus, atreet car, railway train or steambout with him. He, asa tule, only confabs with 5 or 10 per cent. of the group, sometimes vith unly 1 or 2 per cent. The high and holy students of Harvard recoxize this fact. But the fact is that, regardless of what- ever transe, want ability or character a Negro posscsses, they do not regard hi «> a man, ‘They regard him as part ape and part man, as a vertebrate ammal of the genus homo, but not of the genus tir. It follows hence that all black men, the good, the bad, the 1n- different, the high toned, the low toned and the no toned, the bril- hant, the mediocre and the half-wits are all placed in the same cate- gory and classified alike. If the souls of Poushkin of Russa, Samuel Goleridge Taylor of England, Gen.

Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to {nvite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. THE IRONY OF FATE T seems indeed the irony of fate that Prof. Roscoe Conkling Bruce I should be the one to have his son discriminated agamst at Harvard, His father had been a United States Senator and Registrar of the Treasury. Ils record hoth im and out of college was brilliant. He spoke on a victorious Harvard debating team; won the Coolidge prize in debatmg,, was clected class orator, received ls degree with a magna cum laude, delivered the memorial address at Harvard; served as prm- cipal of the acadenne department of Luskegee and as Assistant Superin- tendent of Pubhe Instruction im Washington, D.C. _ Then both im and out of college Mrofessor Bruce was what the sunny South would term “a good Negro", that 15, one who way hari: less. He never actively identified himself with any of the radical ajgta- tion movements, Both at Harvard, Tuskegee and Washington, D.C. he followed perfectly the line of least resistance. Ie studiously re- trained by word or deed from saying or doing anfthing that would give offense to the sensibilities, tastes or prejudices of his Caucasian neigh: bors and associates. He easily and comfortably swallowed the indus- trial fad, and smiled calmly at disfranchisement, jim crowism and an occasional lynching. Seemingly he and his would he the last ones to be discriminated against. What was the fly in the omtiment, then? In June, 1901, the writer and Professor Bruce by the accident of fortune chanced to ride on the same train, in the same car and in the same seat from New York City to New Haven, Comn . where the former alighted while the ‘atter rode on to Boston and to Harvard, where he was stepping from one triumph to another. It was a dehghtful conver- sation, The wisdom of young Bruce, the elegance of his language and the modulation of his voice made a pleasing impression upon the writer. Quite naturally, after discussing for nearly an hour the philosophy of Royce and Ladd, the psychology of James, the sociology of Sumner and the philosophy of art of Nortan ws -yould descend from the heights of Meuxt Parnassus to the mundane sphere and discuss such terrestrial affairs as industrial traming, disfranchisement and jim-crow cars. Young Bruce thought the passive rather than the active attitude was the ideal one for the young colored scholars, “because.” he said, “race }1-c)- udice is a fact which, like the law of gravitation, must be reckuned with.” We remembered that phrase, for it recalled the saying of Prof. Josiah Royce that a woman's will is a fact to be reckoned with like the fact of gravitation. In watching the subsequent career of Professor Bruce we observed that he acted out his thought. When other conservative scholars, who had positions at stake, like Dr. W. E B. Du Bois, Mr 1. M. Hershaw, Prof. C.C Cook of the department of English at Howard Unversity and Prof. William H. Richards of the school of law, had the courage, the spirit and the high principle to speak out boldly in behalf of Ingher aspirations of black men and black womten, Professor Bruce was a serene philosophic spectator as the black man was slowly but surely being robbed of the civil and political rights guaramteed him by the Constitution of the United States. He made no move to stay the ad- vancing tide of caste prejudice and caste proscription as it mounted higher and higher until it swept his own son off his feet. Perhaps if when Professor Bruce delivered the memorial sities at Harvard some eighteen years ago last May, instead of indorsing the current attitude towards the Negro, which favored industrial education and self-effacement from politics, he had adopted the idealistic and courageous tone and attitude of his letters to President Lowell, lie would have assisted in moulding and crystallizing an enlightened public seati- ment which would have made impossible the recent attitade of Har- vard's president. “Eternal vigilance 18 the price of hierty.” The old saying is “better late than never And although Prosessor Bruce was late—extremely late—in raising his voice for liberts, freedom, juste equality and democracy, we are yet grateful for ns brilliant and forceful vindication of the idealistic strivings of the Negro in language that charms us with its simplicity, chasteness and elegance BRAN V ANY AS 8EEE UU Done why was a student in the Harvard Divinity and Harvard A Graduate. Schvol in the last three years of the nincteenth century, when Harvard had the finest philosophical faculty im the world, when (harles Eliot Norton defied public opinion in airing ils views upon the Spanish-American War, when Wilham James was the principal orator at the unveiling of the Robert Gould Shaw monument, when Swami Abhedanada lectured at the Cambridge conferences, when Mozoombar preached in Dr. Edward Everett Hale's church, and when Bita Chaudra Pal clectrified the audience at the meeting of the Free Religious Association and when James Coolidge Carter of the New York bar pictured Harvard as the shrine of truth at the alumni dinner, quite naturally I would be interested in observing whether Harvard would preserve those ideals and tra- ditions of culture which made her foremost amoung American uni- versities. I read with interest the correspondence between President Ab- bott Lawrence Lowell of Harvard and Prof. Roscoe Conkling Bruce relative to the exclusion of the son of the latter from the freshman dormitorica because his presence would drive away Southern stu- dents who have certain preconceived notions as to the Negro’s place in human soclety. President Lowell said in his first letter to Prof. Bruce: “I am sure you will understand why, from the beginning, we have not thought it possible to compel men of different races to reside to- ether.” He said in his second letter: “But it seems to me that for the colored man to claim that he le entitled to have the white man compelled to live with him is a very unfortunate innovation, which, far from doing him good, would increase a prejudice that, as you and ; will thoroughly agree, is most unfortunate and probably Growing. = “On the other hand, to maintain that compulsory residence in the freshman dormitorics—which has proved a great benefit in breaking up the soeial cliques that did much injury to the collego—chould not be established for 99/4 per cent. of the students because the remain- ing one-half of 1 per cent. could not properly he included, seems to me an untenable position.” In running away from one evil President Lowell is running into the arms of a greater cvil. He is endeavoring to break up the social cliques at Harvard, but he is also sanctioning u custe prejudice based upon the color of the skin or ancestry of an individual, which is at varlance with the highest democratic, Christian and cultural ideals. The real question at issuc is not whether white and colored men whould be compelled to live in the same building, but whether a colored man should be regarded and treated as a man, the same as) other men, and estimated not by the social status of his grandfather, but by his intrinsi. worth as a man. The Zeit Geist While the presidents of and professors in universities, hke the President of the United States and the Congressman, mould public sentiment, they are also affected by public sentiment. They are in- fluenced by the Zeit Geist. The members of the faculties are not gods, but men, and they feel the force of the sentiments of the alumni and the undergraduates. Consequently they arc as much straws which indicate the way the wind blows as rudders which guide and direct ships. At present two powerful forces are at work in the American \ civilization at the bottom and at the top. First there is the Ku Klux. Klan, whose members are confined to white American protestants. ‘This puts the ban upon black men, Jews and Irish Catholics. Then at the top of American society are aristocratic Anglo-Saxons, some of Northern, ofhers of Southern birth and breeding. They are too cul- tured and refined to indorse the coercive measures of the Ku Klux Klan. But they feel themselves immeasurably superior to Negroes, Jews and Irishmen, and they desire not only to avoid social contact ‘and-feilowahip, but even the semblance and appearance of social can- tact.with supposedly inferior races and socie! groups. ‘For a long while Harvard University has been boom-proof against the artificial distinctions of human society and has upheld “¢he aristocracy of culture and character as well as the arisocracy of spirth.and wealth.

The reparations question, as it is revealing itself as we go to press, is the solution to the mystery of the handwriting on the wall as seen in that remarkable book, “The Economic Consequences of the Peace,” by that British super-economist, John Maynard Keynes, fellow of King’s College. In his book Mr. Keynes predicted Germany's inability to pay the enormous indemnity imposed on her by the allied Premiers. Now, after fout yeara of normalcy, Germany who. of the nations of the entire world, alone knows the real mean‘ng of that word—ig unable to live up to the provisions of the Treaty of Versail'es. At the Paris conference Mr: Bonar Law washed England’s hands of France's petulance. Am- bassador Harvey backed out. Poincaré, urged on hy a reactionary Chamber of Deputies. flung down the gauntlet, and the die was once more cast. Mr. Harding, up to that time reticent, recalled the 13.000 American troops on the Rhine, but, in the words of the New York Wald, “again Mr, Harding's gesture is too fate and too feeble to be effective.” And eo France sent her Moroccan troops galloping into the Ruhr. ‘What is the meaning of all this? It means that another big war is ahead of ys, It means that France is ag relentless as when Georges Clemenceau was(in the saddle. It means that Belgium is the Belgium Of-colonial tHiditions—the chef the Cango horrors.’ Andin Germany, the only country today that is not swept by cyclones of unrest and-indus- trial disorganization, is taking it passively—is yielding to the onslaught of the French imperialists. It is interesting to note just at this point that American anthro- pologists like Franz Boas and Dr. Clark Wissler are trying to say that the Moroccans are not really Negroes, but “Negroid,” being but “a blend of Arab, Jew and Berber.” “I should say.” Dr. Wissler is quoted as having said, “the Moroccans were approximately 50 per cent. Negroid.” This excludes them. In the eyes of white Americans it 1s O. K. for them to occupy the Ruhr Valley. Anti-German propaganda? Yes, Or it might be an attempt to justify France's war gesture. But whatever 1t 15, 1t somehow misses fire Surely people—dark-skinned people—who are 50 per cent. Negroid are, if not Negroes, what, then, are they? We are not begging the question. It 1s the white race that legislates that one drop of black blood makes a man a Negro. It is this same white race that 19 contradicting itself when 1 says that “50 per cent. Nogroid” does not make “Negro” This decision, come to think of it, imght result in a complete revolution of the statutes of the South It might put a half-million “blacks ' on the other side of the fence.

ALPHA PHI ALPHA CONVENTION PORTRAYS EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS OF THE NEGRO IN AMERICA Serious Attitude of Delegates Towards Important Problems Appeals to St. Louis Citizens ST LOUIS, Mo. Jan. 8—Nothing more vividly portrayed the educational progress of the American Negro than the appearance in St Louis Mo., of more than 300 representatives of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity from sixty of the leading colleges and universities in the United States in attendance upon the fifteenth annual convention of their fraternity, which was held during the days December 27 to 31 1922, inclusive. The occasion afforded the first opportunity for the citizens of St Louis to come in close touch with such large numbers of young Negro college men from all parts of the country and get an idea of just what place a fraternity occupies in their college life. The Epsilon Lambda, graduate chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha, located at St Louis, and the citizens of St Louis saw to it that every delegate and visiting member of the Alpha Phi Alpha was comfortably situated throughout the period of the convention The opening session of the convention was held Wednesday afternoon at 230, at the St. Louis headquarters Pine street branch Y M C A, with over three hundred college men as delegates and visiting members of the fraternity from the various colleges and universities in America stretching from Harvard, Boston University and Yale, on the New England coast to the University of California, on the Pacific coast, and from the Universities of Michigan and Minnesota on the Great Lakes to Atlanta University and Morehouse College in the South. The business of the convention was successfully handled under the direction of the national officers of the fraternity Bimeon S Booker, president, Dr J H Hillburn, first vice-president, Raymond P. Alexander, second vice-president, Norman L Methee, secretary, Dr Homer Cooper, treasurer, and Carl J Murphy, editor of the official organ The Spinix --- Report of National Officers At the Friday afternoon session the national officers of the fraternity made their yearly reports. The national president, Simeon S. Booker, reported that the fraternity had made great progress during the year, especially in the results from the annual "Go to High School, Go to College" campaign and in the increasingly important place which the organization is taking in collegiate life. It was noted from the report of the national secretary, Norman L. McGhee, that during the past year chapters of the Alpha Dbl Alpha have been established at the University of California, Berkeley, Cal., the State University of Iowa Iowa City, Iowa, the State College of Iowa Iowa, Iowa, the University of Denver Denver, Colo., Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass.; Springfield College, Springfield, Mass.; Northwestern University, Evanston, Ill., and a graduate chapter at Indianapolis, Ind., which added to the chapter roll of thirty-six as reported at the last convention, makes a total chapter roll of forty-four, with a membership of over 2500 Of these forty-four chapters thirty-six were Won't You Try This Free For That Nasal and Throat Catarrh?

A wreath was placed on the monument by the fraternity and brief exercises were held Successful Public Session Held in Poro College Auditorium Pehahs the best public impression of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity was received at the public session which was held in the Poro College auditorium on Sunday afternoon, December 31. The seriousness of the program and plans of the fraternity were effectively presented to the public by Raymond P. Alexander, vice-president of the fraternity, in his discussion of the subject "Alpha Phi Alpha's Task" Mr. Aaron E. Malone, president of Poro College and an honorary member of the Alpha Phi Alpha, gave to the public a very definite idea of the relation which Alpha Phi Alpha bears to it in his sound and common sense analysis of his subject "Alpha Phi Alpha's Relation to the Public." The address delivered by Dr. E. P Roberts of New York City, an honorary member of the fraternity, was an appealing interpretation of the "Ideals of Alpha Phi Alpha." "Go to High School" Campaign Continued—Conlumbus, Ohio, Selected as Meeting Place for Sixteenth Annual Convention The final session of the convention was held Saturday afternoon, at which time action was taken respecting the plans to push the annual "Go to High School, Go to College" movement in every State of the Union during the month of May, and recommendation was made to the forty-four chapters asking the establishment of additional scholarships to aid men in staying in school. Much interest was exhibited in the selection of the meeting place for the sixteenth annual convention. After a spirited campaign on the part of the delegates from the six chapters located in the State of Ohio, who urged that Columbus, Ohio, be selected, the convention decided in their favor, despite the enticing bids of the delegates from New York and Detroit. Officera Elected for 1923 At the end of the final session, the following officers were elected to guide the Alpha Phi Alpha through the year 1923: Nimone R. Booker, Baltimore Ml. president, Raymond P. Alexander, Boston, Mass. first vice-president; R. W. Cannon, Minneapolis, Minn., second vice-president, Norman L. McGhee, Washington D.C., secretary, Homer Cooper, Chicago, Ill., treasurer, Oscar C. Brown, Indianapolis, Ind., editor of the official organ, "The Sphinx." On account of the remarkal growth of the Alpha Phi Alpha in the far West, it was decided to add an additional vice-president to have charge of that section, and James W. McGregor of Los Angeles, Cal., was selected for that office.

Citizens of St. Louis Pronounce the Convention a Success The fifteenth annual convention of the Alpha Phi Alpha officially closed with the fraternity banquet held at Zoro College on Sunday evening, December 31, with the assurance from the citizens of St Louis that the prevailing idea which met the members of the Alpha Phi Alpha upon their arrival that the main object of a fraternity convention was for social entertainment had been completely changed by the seriousness with which the delegates of the fraternity had undertaken the important work before their organization.

Lawrence Lowell of Harvard excluding the son of Roscoso Conkling Bruce, well-known Negro graduate, from the freshman dormitory was the discover that the matter never has been put before or acted on by the Board of Overseers of the university. The Board of Overseers is one of the two governing boards of the institution. The other is the "Corporation," consisting of the president and fellows. Whether the matter has been laid before or acted on by the Corporation could not be learned yesterday. The question of which board is superior in authority is one, it is said, that has never been settled in 300 years, but joint action of both boards is required on all important matters. No decision can be said to represent the policy of the university, it was declared, that has not been favorably acted on by both, and doubt was expressed as to whether action by the president would be hold valid if the boards failed to approve it. Overseers to Take It Up It is known the question of barring the freshman dormitories to Negroes, which has been brought to a head by the case of Bruce, probably will be taken up by the Board of Overseers, but no member could be reached in New York yesterday who would discuss it or give any opinion as to the probable attitude of the board. The strength of the graduate protest against what is declared to be a departure from the university, a historic tradition of tolerance is indicated by the fact, ascertain yesterday, that the memorial drawn up by seven prominent graduates lost June when other cases of exclusion from the freshman dormitory were reported, had the signatures of 138 graduates of classes ranging from 1850 to 1820 when it was presented to President Lowell. It was in reply to this memorial that Dr. Lowell met a committee of graduates at the Harvard Club last Wednesday and gave his reasons for his decision. "Jim Crow the College." Declaring the action would "Jim Crow the college," the Rev. Dr. William Channing Gannett of Rochaster yesterday gave The World a state- ment of his views on President Lowell's action. Dr. Gannett is a Unitarian clergyman and an author. He was a member of the class of 1860, matriculating at Harvard in the very heat of the Abolitionist movement, and he headed the committee that drafted the memorial to President Lowell. He said: "I think the proposed exclusion policy at Harvard would violate all her best traditions and certainly her best ideals. In its measure it would 'Jim Crow' the college. It would show her siding with those disposed to increase rather than lessen the birth burdens of the colored people in our land, and this at a critical time when inter-racial and international questions are pressing to the fore, demanding noble adjustment. Ideals of justice and democracy are certainly part of a Harvard education. "Nor do I believe the best element in the South would be won by a surrender of our Northern conception of such ideals to their social preferences. As proposed, it might be but a slight exclusion, the educational opportunity, as I understand it, not being withheld, but it would be a great racial insult, undeserved and it is too late in history to do such a thing—above all, for Harvard, with her record, to do it. In less than a generation we should all be ashamed of it."—New York World, January 12. FOUR NEW SPEAKERS ARE ANNOUNCED FOR BUILDERS' CONFERENCE HAMPTON, Va., Jan. 15.—The first annual Hampton Institute Builders' Conference, which will be held for three days, beginning on January 29. will bring together a large group of national experts who will give free instruction to colored builders and others who are interested in the building industry. H. Whittimore Brown, who is in charge of the newly organised department of building construction in the Armstrong-Slater Memorial Trade School at Hampton Institute and who is in charge of this builders' conference, announces four new speakers: Frank R. Walker of Chicago, well-known author of textbooks on cost accounting and estimating; Walter C. Allen of Stamford, Conn., president of the Yale and Towne Manufacturing Company; Dudley F. Holtman of Washington, D. C., construction engineer of the National Lumber Manufacturers' Association, and T. Alfred Fleming of New York, supervisor Conservation Department, National Board of Fire Underwriters. The colored speakers will include R. R.

Drugg, principal of Hampton Institute, will deliver the address of welcome, and H. Whittimore ROSEWOOD, Fla., Jan. 3—Rosewood is quiet Monday, following the racial disturbances of the past few days, in which seven persons were killed as the result of a search by officers and citizens possessed for Jesse Hunter, Negro, wanted for an alleged attack on a young white woman at Summer last Monday. Officers are still without a clue as to the whereabouts of Hunter. Officers are inclined to believe that the burning of twelve houses, all that was left of the Negro quarter of Rose- Brown will speak on "Alms and Ideals of the Hampton Builders' Course." Through the generosity of Albert Farwell Bemis of Boston the establishment of the builders' course and the new department of building construction has been made possible. MADAM IDA B.

The houses burned by a number of white men while a crowd locked out but they could be found who would say they the houses burned, according to the county officers. The burning Sunday afternoon came as a sequel to the previous destruction of a large part of the Negro question and the clashes between white men and Negroes in which the fatalities occurred. Two white men were killed in the confl. and five Negroes fall victims, two of them being shot to death in a rain of bullets on a dwelling in which the blanks barricaded themselves and the other three being slam at different times. Authorities have in custody several Norroes in connection with the clashes, the officials stating that these prisoners, who have been spirited away for safe keeping, were among those who barricaded themselves in a house and were fired on. Officers on Monday expressed the hope of controlling the situation without further outbreaks. The section, however, is still much aroused over the disturbances. PERSON, EVANGELIST OF ST. A. M. E.

Witness after witness testifying at the Bustrop hearings has given names, dates and circumstantial details which not only incriminate the local organization but reveal the existence in the vicinity of underground government and open terrorism known to every citizen. Yet the same evidence which charges the Klan with the most horrible crime within the memory of this generation also brings out the extraordinary fact that the original purpose of the chapter, so far as can be discovered, was to clean up Mer Rouge. The Ku Klux Klan a Mer Itouge thought of itself, at least at first, as the better element, disaffected with its neighbors' morals and embarked upon the righteous job of compelling reform. It intended to run the roughs out of town and deport women of ill-repate. It ended by making Mer Rouge a hideous national scandal and branding the community with an indelible stain—the stain left on the memory by those two broken bodies found floating in Lake La Pourohe. Imperial Wizard Evans insists that the aims of the Klan are legitimate its methods above reproach. He repudiates violence and characterizes attempts to connect the Ku Klux with masked raids as deliberate falsification. In Mer Rouge he has his answer. A secret government encouraging race prejudice and "executing" as its defender claims, the "sentence of God upon evil," is inherently more vicious and vastly more dangerous than any amount of disorganized crime and immorality. A majority of those who join probably accept the statements of the Imperial Wizard in good faith, nevertheless they have cast their lot with a blackhand gang and entered an easy apprenticeship to murder—New York World.

ANTHONY AERY HAMPTON Va Jan 17 — You must light your own torch if was the injunction which was given many years ago by Dr Daniel Cottolman president of Johns Hopkins when he gathered twenty of the most promising young men that he could find in the colleges and brought them together in Baltimore as a noosa for a university teaching staff according to Dr Walter Bettke of New York president of the general Education Board who spoke at Hampton Institute on Education as Self Education and paid tribute to the late Dr Holly Brassel, principal of Hampton where he had engaged for many years in good education service. Doctor Buttrick referred in detail to the life story of Mr. Lutpun, world known professor of electrical engineering in Columbia University which has been appearing steadily in newspapers. Magazine as a constitutive of the truth that men must learn to use the opportunities which they have, if the wish to become a doctor. Doctor Buttrick described that although he has reached the age of seventy he has not begun to have in the past. He proudly worthwhile books each year although he has greatly impressed the sight Doctor Buttrick took. Every educated person in the world is self-educated. You cannot educate anybody but yourself. Nobody can educate you. Teachers are not necessary, libraries are not necessary, laboratories and shops are not necessary, though very important adjuncts. Education is the discipline of your own power by yourself the acquiring of knowledge by and for yourself. That only is true education which is never finished. The education and the educated woman is the man or the woman who is able to say on the 31st day of December of any year I have learned me during these past 365 days than during any other 365 days of my life. "Ever learning, ever struggling toward the truth, ever struggling toward the beat in character, ever fighting for the thing that is a little higher and a little better and a little more worthwhile—that is what the educated person is doing. "Education is a life process, and if there be a future life its only attraction to us should be that we may grow forever and be constantly living ourselves for higher intelligence and better service and deeper and truer appreciation of all that God has wrought and that God is." "WHIRLWIND" JOHNSON IS TO CAPTAIN THE "LIONS" IN 1923 Sixteen Receive Letters for Gridiron Warfare — Sterrett New Student Manager At the annual December election for football manager at Lincoln University John A. Sterrett of Harrisburg was chosen to succeed L. K. Redmond as manager of the Lions for 1923 Sterrett is the third student to manage Lincoln's football team since her usually gridiron transactions have passed the $10,000 mark. It was Sterrett a predecessor, a student of Lincoln, who first put the Lincoln-Hawaii battle on a classic plane by staging it in the city of Philadelphia in 1919. (From so that year neither Lincoln nor Howard had played the game in a big way away from their own campuses.) Besides the honor which came to Bierrett, sixteen of the Lincoln "cubas" were awarded La. (The basis of awarding football La at Lincoln is present, and one which is not altogether satisfactory—is participation in the Turkey Day Classic.) Their names follow: Coston (Capt), Skinker, "Bly" Wood, Diggs, Morgan, Carter, Lancaster, McLean, A. Wilson, "Whirlwind" (R W) Johnson, Goodman, Polindexter, Lee, Brud, Crud and Jacques. Plans and schedules are now being arranged for the ensuing year. Robert Walter Johnson, dubbed "Whirlwind" an account of his wild, streaming manoe and furious whirling in battle, has been elected captain of the Lincoln squad for 1923. He has a flashy record. As "Bill" Shakepeare would put it, "Whirlwind" has all the high additr a of a mighty Archilles and experiences smacking richer than all the host of Greekish vallanta. He has played against Morehouse, Wiborforce, Union, Howard, Hampton, West Virginia College and the little follewa. Tenns he plays well. Baseball is also his tall suit. Won his letters on the b shall arity of Lincoln and led the squad in batting averages. He is twenty-two, married, and tips the scales at 165 stripped. Prior to 1923 "Whirlwind"'s strong point was his defense. During the past football season, of Lincoln's twenty-three touchdowns Johnson scored six, two being made against West Virginia College Institute at Charlesboro, W. Va. Against St. Paul, who defeated Union, he gained 176 Weekly Sermon Weekly Sermon By Q EMONEI CARTER Subject: The Voice from the Cloud Teach St Luke 9 34:35 When the three chosen disciples were with Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration as they communed together a cloud overshadowed them and they feared to enter it but when once foiled within it all their fear was gone. The discovery which they made in the cloud was the greatest that can come to mortals. There they found food and out of the darkness heard His voice. The darkness which shut them out from the world (forgives) opened to them the heavenly glories out of which the divine will came. God's voice is often in no clouds. When we enter a cloud we do not enter it alone. The divine friend is with us and, although we do not see His face, we may be sure of His presence. The cloud is a certain shading out the world and shining us in with Him so that we may be meant to rejoice and be heard to speak. Shortly before when Jesus of the same Philippi made known to His followers the unusually nature of His kingdom He shattered their Messianic hopes with the result that a great defection took place. To fortify the warning faith of the who refused to break away from Him a reasoning testimony to touching His true glory was needed and it was to answer that need that out of the cloud on the Mount of Transfiguration came a voice saying: This is my son, my brother, he is Him. Was the year and indeed the people were. As a comes to us it is inward and provident. His work sought their certain by mouth and in the heart a work of good will with all hearts. AMERICA! Lincoln's Note. The following poem was written by C. S. Lewis in his seventy-sixth year when he lived in an inn as a roomkeeper of the slave owner and orator and who had never tried his hand at putting his thoughts in their words. Before he died, he said that the author has the inn's ability and longevity of spirit of a man in his early forties and that it is never too late to bring it to the Lord of William Lewis who led him in his life.

During the mid-season, when the Lion squad was not ten with a pair of defeats and dissension was kindling, it was "Whirlwind" who united the backfield, manifestly the weakest portion of the Lion eleven.

The form in which God speaks matters little the fact that He does speak is everything. He ever keeps Himself within speaking distance and has many ways of making Himself heard. His voice is the voice of fatherly interest and love. He speaks in the sunshine and in life a happy providence, and he speaks with equal cheeriness in the cloud of earthly sorrow and disappointment and in the whirlwind of earthly disaster. In those dark days through which we have been passing the divine voice has been speaking in the coats of war a message of judgment and rebuiliment and as on the Mount of Transfiguration the All-Father has been directing the thoughts of men to His Son his chosen telling them to hear Him that they may find from His lips the solution of all problem. God's method of communication is direct so that those who refuse to read His written word cannot keep from hearing the voice in His ownward power of demons or as whispered within the soul. To this voice every man should hold a willing and listening ear. But many make no response. They stop there because they do not want to hear "God speak the one you twice the man regardless of not told 23 111. If we are listening to our own voice or to the voices of others we cannot hear Him speak. God says: says: Fratern is it fair and is heard only by those who hear nothing else.

It was indeed a handle, opportunity, and the children of the new bus were in a champ in the first, second, or thirrd. It was all the same. As it was, it was a place for children. The new bus was not so well as it was. Now, let us think for your we were afraid of. I guess that thought hurts. But I am. We shouldn't either who we can't right now, the hurt one makes us right now, we will compel this new year before it has passed out to be the foundation for our future wealth head and upwards. It is sad. Never look back. But it is us. But that we look back with this question in mind. How many of we have ruined our intended goal? How many of us have made tremendous progress in a toward our intended goal and how many of us have other better or worse than we were on this night one year ago. Those who have to watch that goal lives praise them. Those who have made great achievements toward their goal at us overtake them for are no long to march with the new year. But remember that while we are taming all these things we want wisdom and honor for without wisdom we can never get well and very rarely be healthier for the food the very thing that the law of nature forods him to Do. And without honor who want happiness. Our destiny is governed by our will by our thought and by our ability to DO. And when we fail to have faith fail to think and fail to DO, our destiny must needs therefore be governed in others. So we see that we must have wit and think and DO. Let us then not sleep so peacefully on this New Year's night but wake and make a resolution that we will not stand back, but will join the ambitious struggling and surging mass of humanity that we will write our names among those and demand the attention of the ceding men and women of America before the year has past. If we cannot reach our goal this year, let us make it wholly and solely responsible for it when it is reached. Such of you as have parents and friends have the advantage of me, for I have neither.

JAN 1. The Rev. William H. Sheppard of Louisville, Kentucky of Pioneers in Congo, and a distinguished colored missionary who won for his discoveries in the Belgian Congo, during twenty years of pioneer service under the Southern Presbyterian Church in fellowship in the Royal geographical Society, spoke recently to numerous groups of workers, students and visitors of Hampton Institute on the buffling problems which face the mission in Africa. Dr Shepard described the attractions which he had committed in the Kaiser Valley by armed sentries of traveling warriors, which had recovered from the attack by the warlord of the Belgians, the rhinoceros to gather rubber in the Belgian Congo. He modestly outlined his own share in bringing these attractions to the attention of the Christian world. He described a Yank War Alert has been using to improve conditions in the Belgian Congo. Dr Shep, ardibly described some of his experiences with African wild animals and strange people, including the camphallus Zongo Zaps, and his work among the Lukuba, who represented a high grade of culture. He showed a valuable collection of African curries and related the associations of those tribes with African customs and superstitions. He paid a warm tribute to the F. Samuel N. Lipsby. He also shared the land he received his inscription for missionary service from Dr H. H. Frassell principal of Hamilton from 1923 to 1917.

A., Holds Big Meeting—Marked Improvement Is Shown in Program HIGH COMMISSIONER J. W. SLAPPY, OF SOUTH CAROLINA, ENTHUSIASTICALLY RECEIVED AT CHARLESTON On Thursday evening, January 4, the High Commissioner addressed the Charleston Division at the Young Men's Christian Association on Cannon street. There were representatives from the various chapters in the vicinity, and the forceful address delivered by the High Commissioner on the doctrines of the Universal Negro Improvement Association thrilled the audience. This address based upon divers topics, was insurging and was enthusiastically received. On Friday evening January 6 the Commissioner took for his subject The Fight 'a On.' He explained that the subject meant that Negroes should unite and fight for the redemption of their motherland Africa, not with swords but intellectually and financially. This address was very spirited in instructive. We are very pleased to have the High Commissioner with us, for there is much need for his instructions and assistance. We are also pleased to have our former associate secretary, E. W. Bristow, with us again after an absence of a few months. He has come back with the same ardor to speak at every opportunity on the great work of our beloved U. N. J. A. Mr. S. M. Sanders, chaplain of the division, sang a solo. Mr. Richard H. Bollinger, chairman of the trustee board, and Mr. E. W. Bristow delivered spirited addresses. U. N. I. A. OFFICERS IN COLON NOT GUILTY The U. N. I. A. cause celebre came to an end on December 6, when President Brooks and Secretary Pilgrim were notified by Judge Ayarza that they were absolved of the charge of abuse and confidence preferred against them. The case opened up at 2 p.m. on November 27, in the Second Circuit Court. The prosecution was conducted by Mr Isaac Fernandez, with Prosecuting Attorney Mr Cervera representing the government. The accused were represented by Mr Erfrain Tejada and Mr Ellis Alspuru. The opening was rather dramatic and created quite a scene in court when a star witness for the prosecution broke down under a rigid cross-examination by counsel for the defense; another witness did very little better and tried to prove that his knowledge of the shortage of funds was predicated upon suspicion and his suspicion was founded upon honesty. The case took 4 days for the examination of witnesses. Five witnesses testified in behalf of the defense and their evidence was corroborated in every material point. The defence proved that the association was not cognizant of any shortage of funds, that they did not authorize the indictment of officers, and they affirmed the honesty and integrity of the officers charged and further reiterated their implicit confidence in their administration. At the close of the defence the Prosecuting Attorney addressed the court for about 10 minutes, followed by Mr. Fernandez. For the defense Mr. Tejada spoke for over three hours and his address was closed in forensic oratory. He stared the point of the illegality of the arrest of the officers, and argued that these officers were the victims of spite, malice and revenge, because others were expelled from the association for disorderly conduct and conspiracy against the officers of the association. Both Mr. Fernandez and Mr. Cervera prosecuted the case in a very technical manner. Mr. Tejada in a lucid manner replied to each point raised, and Mr. Alpurpura gave the closing address in a short but pointed speech. Each day the capacity of the court was taxed to the limit. Another case is now pending against the said officers, but this case has been transferred to Panama, and will be disposed of shortly—The Independent, Colon, Republic of Panama.

The aim of the conference was. To unite members of the Student Christian Movement undergraduates or graduates who may wish to join with them, in fellowship, to find a solution for agricultural, racial, national and international problems of Canada, and to promote a spirit of universal brotherhood amongst the different races and religions. Nearly ever, country of the globe and all the races and religions were represented. Seven hundred students besides hundreds of visitors were present. During recess on Sunday I visited the Toronto branch of the U N I A and was pleased to find the hall filled beyond capacity. The improvement while gratifying was no less mysterious, judging from the poor attendance during last summer. A new spirit seemed to have impregnated all Mrs. Francis lady president, was effective in her tribute to Marcus Garvey and her testimony to the integrity of the cause won prolonged applause. I was charmed by the singing of the choir and the religious atmosphere that permeated the place. I thought the Montreal branch was incomparable in rendering good singing but the singers of the Toronto branch showed superiority in technique. President Brett is doing a good work and is worthy of encouragement. He is a man of force and determination. Mr. Riley, the achievement speaker, thrilled in the hearers with an instructive address on Ancient History. Of all I N I A members Mr. Riley has shown patience loyalty and sincerity. Chaplain Dr. Myers was present and made arrangements for the Watch Night service which began at nine o'clock. The doctor contributes regularly to the spiritual needs of the members. Mrs. Blackburn program director thanked the contributors and wished a happy New Year. The program consisted of an address by Mr. Riley: anthem, "My Lord, Thy Will Be Done, piano solo, Miss Clarke address, by Mrs. Francis, saxophone solo, Mr. Giarr, duet, Miss Riley and Moore address, improvement Mr. Francis, anthem, their address, "Recognition of Duty," Mr. Padmore.

This brought forth great applause as the young miss of fourteen summers thrills the heart of everyone. She was encored three times, and the more she responded the more she excelled which caused Mr George Rawlins to ask the visiting friends and members to subserve for a "purse" for the gay reciter, which was responded to instantaneously. We wish the young lady a prosperous and prolonged career. Mamie Robinson, a four-year-old child, and little Alfred Green are to be congratulated. Our executive secretary, Mr Coto who is more of a preacher than a politician, gave us an excellent lecture, also next morning, Christmas Day, when he held a religious early morning meeting. On that night we had an enjoyable dance, which was a bright occasion. Wednesday we had a lively welfare meeting. On New Year's Eve we held another bright mass meeting, followed by a watch night service by our preacher secretary. All these functions were satisfactorily attended. Thus the new year finds us watching and praying for the redemption of our motherland Africa. Later in the day we held a phone, which was very disappointing, as our members did not patronize us, but we returned to Liberty Hall, where we had a general dedication. H STONEWALL JACKSON.

Local No. 188, U. N. I. A., scorned an immense hit with one of the greatest programs it has been our pleasure to enjoy for some time. Miss Corrine Clark, the charming Misset of Ceremonies, was delightfully entertaining with wholesome wit, humor and originality. Her pleasant personality was decidedly magnetic and kept her audience in a happy mood throughout her superintendence of the program. Master Joseph Johnston, the boy wonder of the juveniles, recited another of his interesting recitations. Miss Geraldine Inman, their musical directress, rendered a piano selection, entitled "The Flower Song." Miss Louise Johnson also recited a dainty selection that was heartily applauded. Mrs. H. E. Vann displayed her ability as an elocutionist in a recitation entitled "By the Side of the Road That's a Friend to Man" Mrs. Lois Pittman, the lady-president, delivered an address from the Bible concerning the duties of her sex in this great movement Madame Hill, the spiritualist, was present and spoke on the possibilities of African redemption if we but place our trust in the Omnipotent One and work relentlessly toward our objective. Spirited applause was accorded the speaker—Calif. Voice, Dec 22.

Allowing for an estimated increase of our population in the same period of 87,879, this indicates a decline in tuber- LEAGUE OF NATIONS DELEGATES VISIT THE NEW HAVEN DIVISION On January 3 the New Haven Division was visited by two of the delegates, Ilon. Mosera, Adams and O'Malley, who recently returned from the League of Nations sessions in Geneva. They were sent by the U. N. I. A. for the purpose of visiting the former German colony, whereby a national home can be established for the Negro people of the world. At 8 p.m. the Masonic Hall was filled to its capacity with members, friends, well-wishers and critics of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, all anxiously awaiting the distinguished visitors. The meeting opened at 8:30 p.m with the singing of the opening hymn, "From Greenland's Iry Mountains," and opening prayer by the assistant chaplain, Rev. Mr. Irving. After a brief preliminary the president, Mr. B Murray, introduced the Hon James O Malley, who expressed his opinion of the League of Nations and kept the audience at a high pitch for at least three quarters of an hour. The next speaker was the Hon Jean J. Adams, who gave a glowing report of the good work accomplished by the delegation. It was indeed an evening of inspiration and realization for the people of New Haven. The U.N.A is demonstrating to the world that its aims and objects must be fulfilled and the 400 000 000 Negroes must enjoy liberty freedom and true democracy.

To the many divisions of the U N I A in the Island of Cuba, greetings. You are hereby advised not to entertain any one at the expense of your division, nor otherwise claiming to be members of the Clejo de Avila Division 78 unless such ladies can produce credentials, stamped with the seal of the division, showing their true membership. There are several parties who have received support from other divisions when stranded by claiming to be members of this division, when they are the enemies of the division, and thus make their boast of the loyal treatment they had received. Caution should be taken on whom such fraternal sympathy is bestowed In a recent issue of The Nogr World there was published an article relating to a main meeting held in Central Violitta, province of Camaguey, wherein it was stated that from the issue of that meeting three new members were made for Ciejo Avila Division. Many more for the Moron Division. It further stated that the secretary of the division went over and got those members' names enrolled and their fees, but up to the present time of writing I have not received the names of those members, nor their fees. Therefore, this division will not be held responsible for those members. JAMES D. BOYCE Acting Executive Secretary Narciso Lopez No. 23, Clejo de Avila Cuba. colonia mortality among us of 4 per cent.

The throng stopped in front of the police station, carrying a banner, written in letters of gold, in both languages. The band played both anthems. Cuban and Ethiopian, which was much appreciated by the police on guard, who saluted. At the soldiers' camp proceedings were in the usual manner. Thence the throng proceeded to the commons of Central Florida and celebrated the day magnificently with a plenic. At night, at 8 o'clock, the doors of Liberty Hall were thrown open for a tea meeting, at which were representatives of Ethiopia a royal family). There were the features of the day and night, which brought much satisfaction and great hope to our people of Ethiopia restoration. (Nigned) M B.

For quite a while enemies of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association have been working for the purpose of turning public sentiment against Mr Garvey. Different Negro associations have been canvassing the people asking them to testify against Mr Garvey. They have organized opposition meetings in different centers under the caption, "Garvey Must Go." All this is being done to defeat the hopes of our race through the only real Negro movement started in the interest of the race. The fight for African freedom is eternal and you must support it now by supporting the greatest leader of the race.

CUBA Our Christmastide was joyfully spent by everyone in this community, leaving signs of an expectant prosperous new year, and while we have enjoyed ourselves immensely, there is something which stands in the uppermost mind of the Universal Negro Improvement Association which its executive heads can never neglect, and that is to remind our thoughtless members of the race of their past experiences. As executive secretary of this division I cannot blink at plain facts, and this holds me up to ridicule in the entire community. Our exhibition which was so long published, has practically left a gloom on our community. It's no gainsaying that in this town there are many persons, especially women, who are capable of competition along the lines of handicraft with any other women of any other race. But what do we see? We do not know if it lack of knowledge of the aims and objects of the association in their part. We do not know if they unknowingly refuse to admit that they are an integral part of the Nagro race. We don't know if there is any prejudice directed toward the executive staff or the membership in general of the division. But whatever may be the outstanding causes, we should worry. We are only desirous of bringing two of the parables of our Lord and Saviour while here on earth. When one lights his candle and includes it under a bushel, he's yet in the dark, when the other fellow acquires a talent and hides it in the earth, he also is cursed and committed to the dark regions. Therefore we appeal to the people, not of our community alone, but to Negroes all over the world where such gross errors are made on their part to make an immediate correction. Nevertheless, our exhibition went on in fine style, and especially our lashes made a fine showing for the future. Here they go. Miss Beatrice Robinson crochet yoke and knitted cap. Miss Isadora Newman, centerpiece. Mrs Louise Osborne antimacassar and flower pot. Miss Elinabeth Dunkley petitcout, pin cushion and pillowcase. Mrs. Florence Williams, corner cover and centerpiece.

The first for a very long time our Liberty Hall was packed to overflowing on Sunday, December 21, when the Moron Choral Union, under the direction of Mr J. A. Todd, was recorded many congratulations for the splendid way in which they entertained the audience with a number of Lorena's Christmas anthems, duets, quartets, tris, and solos, including the Halleijutah Chorus. In view of the fact that Mr. Todd singularly prepared his choir in a little less than a month and made such a hit is worthy of commend. He intends packing one of the biggest theatres in this town for the Easter season. JOSEPH A. TODD. Executive Secretary. Moron Div. No. 874. $700 in 2 Hours That's what Brian needs by now.

FIGUEROA, Editor Nuevo Prospecto de Guerra en el Viejo Continente—La Unión de los Millones de Elementos de Nuestra Raza Por una Causa Justificada—La Labor de Redención Continuará Por Medio de la Determinación de los Miembros que Constituyen Nuestra Organización Nuevos nubarrones de guerra empiezan a aglomerarse en el cielo del viejo continente y de un momento a otro se desarrollará un nuevo conflicto continental que forzará los designos y tendencias militares de Francia, lo cual envolverá al universo en otro holocaustro. Los cuatrocientos millones de elementos de nuestra raza en el universo se preparan para que en circunstancias como la actual, se les presente la oportunidad de libertar la madre patria y emanciparse universalmente, aprovechandose de los cambios que proporciona el resultado de estas conflagraciones. Estos cambios, indudablemente, traerán en si un mejoramiento en la condición actual de nuestra raza, los cuales no serán instigados por el Negro, sino por los distintos pueblos que le ha explotado por centenares de años. Los grandes gobiernos coloniales del continente europeo, hemos de repetir, darán el golpe por medio del cual los cuatrocientos millones de nuestra raza serán reconocidos como parte integrante de la humanidad y Francia toma de nuevo la iniciativa en tales contingencias. No podemos asegurar el que ésta haya perdido en el uso de sus facultades intelectuales, pero estamos en la completa seguridad de que ella continuará provocando a los gobiernos de Europa, hasta que los pilares del templo de la civilización caigan sobre ellos mismos. Preparemonos, organicmonos mas y mas con el objeto de efectuar el programa de nuestra organización. Aspiramos a la victoria y debemos obtenerla; ambicionamos nuestro propio gobierno y debemos obtenerlo; queremos libertad, verdadera libertau, verdadera democracia. Esta no sera una cuestion de esperar que los otros pueblos nos concedan estos derechos humanos bajo su gobierno; tenemos que prepararnos y obtener estos por medio de nuestro propio esfuerzo El medio mas eficiente de obtener verdadera libertad es cuando, por medio de nuestro propio esfuerzo, deliniemos los planes para la fundación de un gran gobierno propio. Para lograr tal oportunidad esperamos con pacienza la proximidad de la hora. Francía invadirá el valle aleman del Ruhr forzando a Alemania hacia la pared y dentro de poco veremos de nuevo a la vicia Europa envuelta en un incendio tal que serán subcientes esfuerzos sobrehumanos para extinguir las llamas. Las naciones de Europa han tenido sus días de gloria, pero en la época actual se precipitan hacia el abismo. Como el imperio de la antigua Roma, sus poderes y gobiernos caerán a pedazos y en sus ruinas surgirán otros poderes y gobiernos mas prepotentes aun. Si Francia no da su glope de estado hoy, lo dará mañana, si Francia no lo da a tiempo, Alemania lo dará; Italia lo dará, Japón lo dará. Doquiera provenga el glope, el momento hallará a los cuatrocientos millones de nuestra raza listos para marchar hacia la emancipación de la madre patria. Trabajemos con mayor determinación aunque nos tome una eternidad; luchemos de dia en dia por la realización de nuestro propósito. Las filas de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra no serán desalentadas por la rudeza del tiempo ó la propaganda en su contra. Olvidaremos a los traidores en nuestra marcha hacia la victoria, olvidaremos a aquellos que han tratado de interceptar nuestro paso hacia la tierra de promisión. Todas las razas, todos los gobiernos y todos los movimientos han tenido sus traidores; no es nada nuevo el que la nuestra los tenga, pero hemos de prestar en lo sucesivo mayor afención al germen que se debe el sentimiento humano, exterminandolo con nuestra determinación. Hemos de hacer uso de todas nuestras energías en pro de la constitución de su gobierno. En estos instantes en que nuevas nubes ocultan el astro de la paz, consolidemos nuestra determinación hasta que llegue la hora de realizar nuestro propósito, ya tarde ésta un mes, un año, una decada ó un siglo. En todas las épocas y en todas las edades el hombre ha tratado de aventajarse de la ignorancia y debilidad de los demas, pero, en esta época de adelanto, la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra ha puesto coto a esta clase de política de engaños. Ninguna propaganda, ya sea ésta religiosa, política ó social es aceptada por el Negro del presente, sin antes haber hecho un estudio minucioso de su propósito. En lo que respecta a nuestra vida social, política y religiosa, pertenecemos por ley natural al reino animal que nos iguala a cualquier otro ser existente, estando dotado de los mismos sentidos. El japonés, el blanco americano, el anglo-sajón, el francés, etc., todas luchan por el enaltecimiento de sus respectivas razas; nosotros con igual derecho, hemos de luchar por el enaltecimiento 'de la nuestra. Tal es el objeto por el cual vivimos; tal es nuestra determinación.

RETIRADA DE LAS TRO PAS AMERICANAS DEL RHIN La retirada de las tropas americanas del Rhim, Alemania, es claramente una protesta contra la empresa de Francia de poner en plena observancia las estupulaciones de pagos anuales de reparaciones por Alemania por medio de presión militar El voto casi unánime del senado de los Estados Unidos el sabado declarandose en favor de la retirada immediata de las tropas americanas de Alemania es importante en su significación por representar fielmente el sentimiento americano ante la actitud y las medidas de Francia. Nada hay en las relaciones internacionales que pudiese desconcertar mas al pueblo americano que encontrarse en disconformidad con Francia en alguna cuestion. Pero que se ha llegado a esto en cuanto a la actitud general de Francia hacia la nacion deudora, con todo lo que significa en la situacion economica de Europa y la paz mundial, es cierto. Se ha visto venir esto y repetamente se ha enarceado que la psicologia americana es incapaz de entender y simpátizar con el punto de vista frances, porque en los Estados Unidos la cesacion de las hostudades armadas es el principio de la paz. Los Estados Undidos no pueden comprender la resistencia de França a aceptar el concurso recibir con agrado el junco de los Estados Undidos en los problemas transcendentales que se presentan ante ella. Il lugar que Francia tiene en la estimación de los Estados Undidos, el profundo interes que los Estados Undidos tienen por Francia, para no decir nada de la parte de los Estados Undidos en la guerra, hacen exdiente que si la ranca hubiera solicitado con sego de los Estados Undidos en el problema de los reparaciones y en otros seres problemas existentes entre ella y Alemania habría tenido la más sincera y sumatica respuesta de este pas DEPOSICIÓN DE UN FISCAL EN PUERTO RICO El gobierno interino de Puerto Rico, siguiendo instrucciones del gobierno Reilly, ha depuesto al fiscal Quinones Las razones que el gobierno da para la deposición son las siguientes El fiscal Quinones, hallandose en la plaza pública de Guavama, hablo mal de Mr. Reilly El mismo funcionario, utilizaba a veces en sus visitas oficiales un automóvil de su esposa v cobra luego este servicio al gobierno insular El interesado va a hacer que se haga una investigación de los cargos y pedira que se citeen como testigos a algunos altos funcionarios v sus familiares, a fin de que se investigue también el hecho de que estos hacen uso indebido de los autonóviles del gobierno de Puerto Rico. La opinión general se manifiesta sumamente de acuerdo en que se haga la última investigación Automoviles Cruzen el Desierato de Sahara Noticias informa que un grupo de tractores automóviles, tipo "Caterpillar", ha logrado cruzar el desierto de Sahara. Confiase en que de este modo se establecerá un sistema de locomoción que substituirá a las caravanas de camellos. MEJICO Y LA CONFE RENCIA PANAMERI- CANA DE CHILE El cable comunica que Méjico, no habiendo sido todavía reconcidido por los Estados Unidos, ha declarado que se ve en la posición de declinar la instación que se le ha hecho para concurrir a la conferencia panamericana de marzo en Santiago de Chile. La noticia es transcendental y abre un capítulo Ramado a producir sorpresas en los preliminares de la quinta conferencia Desde luego, partiendo de la base de que en el reglamento porque se rigen las conferencias panamericanas no se establece la asistencia sino de gobierno reconocidos en Washington, la actitud asumida por Méjico parece sencillamente logica. Si la conferencia panamericana, en efecto, como organismo oficial de relaciones interamericanas, va a reunirse para discutir v aprobar soluciones de problemas que afectan al continente entero, no es difícil prever que, en el curso de los debates v en el proceso de la aplicación de las soluciones adoptadas, Méjico se encontraria en una posición difícil ante la delegación de Washington, v esta, quiza compelida por la fuerza de las circunstancias, a colocarse en actitud violenta frente a sus colegas leguianos. El punto legal de si la abstención de Mejico es o no obligada, bajo los terminos del reglamento, queda abierto a discussion. Igualmente es debatible apreciar si seria o no conveniente para la republica vecuna afrontar la situación sin prejudicios y aceptar la invitación de Chile para la conferencia, dejando para el momento oportuno dilucidar si su presencia en Santiago era o no autorizada. Lo evidente, lo indiscutible y cada día mas apremiante, es la necesidad de una solución del conflicto internacional yanqui-nejicano que data de hace ya cuatro años. Este estado de cosas que permite que las dos republicas más importantes del norte del continente, vecinas, unidas por enormes intereses, comunes y que deben cooperar para provecho de todos en una política de cordial inteligencia, vivan en un asilamiento hostil y peligroso, debe acabar. Cada dia que se prolonga crea nuevos conflictos y produce renovados peligros. Ni a los Estados Unidos aprovecha, ni aprovecha a Mejice. Y a ambos países, y al resto de America, crea una llaga viviente, un problema palpitante, abierto a todas las complicaciones y a todos los riesgos. Ambas cancilieras deben encontrar un amino para la solución Washington. quiza, se halle en mejores condiciones de dar el paso decisivo en esa vía Y Mexico, llegado el momento, debería abrir más amphaniente posible el camino a la inteligencia. El mundo está demasiado lleno de posibilidades de conflictos internacionales, para que en América, sin problemas de fondo, sin razones trascendentes para ello, se abhenden y se prolonguen situaciones como la que significa la ruptura de relaciones entre Mono y los Estados Unidos. La Preusa, N.Y. NOMBRADO MINISTRO AMERICANO DE CUBA El general F. H. Crowder, asesor general del ejercito de los Estados Unidos y representante del presidente Harding ante el gobierno cubano hasta hace poco, sera el primer embajador de los Estados Unidos en la república de Cuba. La noticia del presidente Harding de nombrar a Crowder para ese puesto fue dada conocer por el presidente del comite de erogaciones de la camara, Mr. Madden, el cual execito a la camara a que aceptara esa designacion. Puesto a votación el nombramiento, la camara lo aprobe por 50 votos contra 38. El nuevo cargo cuesta $17 500 anuales. El general Crowder va a retirarse pronto del ejercito Desde hace días los diarios de la Habana venan publicando despaños de sus correspondales de Washington en que se aseguraba la designacion del general Crowder para el referido puesto y en ellos se decía que, dado el conocimiento que tiene el nombrado de las relaciones existentes entre el gobierno cubano y el de los Estados Unidos, estaba de hecho indicado para el cargo. El general Crowder estuvo primer alli como representante personal del presidente Wilson ante el gobierno cubano, puesto que lo ratificó el presidente Harding al encargarse del poder.

DR. RUDOLPH L. COFFEE ENCOURAGES OAKLAND DIVISION, U. N. I. A. Sunday afternoon, December 31, at Carpenter a Hall, before a most appreciative and attentive audience Dr. Rudolph I. Coffee, distinguished orator, lecturer and rabbi of the Jewish synagogue, delivered an interesting and particularly instructive address on "America and Africa." The noted philosopher dealt impressively with the white man's interpretation of Christianity, and how false it is to the true conception and teaching of the Christ Jesus. The Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man were thoroughly analyzed and explained, and the commandment, Love thy neighbor as thyself" was meant for all mankind irrespective of color race or creed. The failure of the United States Senate to grant the proposed Liberian loan was lauded by the speaker as a wonderful opportunity for the Negroes of America to prove their ability to help their fellow-man in Africa, independently of the other races that exported such exorbitant interest and unnecessary commissions. We were also reminded of the fact that The Lord helps those who help themselves (Deafening applause rewarded this statement.) Having been present at the appearance of the Hon. Marcus Garvey last summer in our city, a most respectful tribute was paid our masterful leader and champion for Negro liberty, Justice and freedom. The lynching evil was forcibly dealt with by the fearless and conscientious speaker namely, that the laws were already on our statutes to prevent moth violence but in the absence of their enforcement... only two things remained for the race to do: either put up with this wrong and suffer or—he a man'' After wishing the division a happy and prosperous New Year, and continued success and progress in our wonderful work, one of our most interesting addresses was brought to a close.

GENERAL NOTICE TO MEMBERS Without Prejudice, This Is to Inform One and All That All persons to whom Mr. Garcia has loan bonds or receipts or conversed with for Improvement Association are requested to a with Complaint Department, Universal Association, 89 West 158th Street, New York ENGLISH WRITER ADMITS NEGRO'S PHYSICAL ADVANTAGES OVER OTHER MEN Ought White Men to Box Black Men When Races Oppose Each Other in the Ring He had passed the age of 70 aspiring and determined to champion the sport of tennis. He had a hard time in the winter and was not as sensitive to the weather as others. He was not as hard to lose his temper. And now through adulthood he never let his troubles stop him. He loved tennis and was very expertly that the sport of tennis makes him the most popular his life. It is all over world that little things which have appeared in the world taking their place with certain hold of fellow hopes during the world when Naka is to be all around that he must be there to be trained to operate the machine he cannot be without and debate the use of it in parent Anger with one he loved is the po- sition doth work like medicine in the beam. That is why the little boy is dealing with rattles with some favorite presents. I hope he will member his long list of games toys and presents that he will be chance of never chasing water pumps. As yet the best thing is the able of rising to our own capacity munityhip the feeling that she is game above the prize and to take specific instance has created us to for give Jilly Wells his many examples of failure. The Color Line But this Nikki Carpenter officer opens an oft discussed question ought contraints between white and black men to be allowed in the ring. In America, ever since the racial protests originating in Johnson's defeat of Jefferson publie opinion has grown more and more strongly opposed to such black and white encounters. And if and when a world's championship contest between Dempsey and Harry Wills, the biggest and best of the Negro boxers out there is finally arranged, I am certain that State after State and city after city will refuse to have it staged within their jurisdiction. Remember that the Willard-Johnson fight had to be taken to Cuba where a hard and fast color-line does not exist. In England we do not possess a large Negro population so that the evil social results of man to man fights between the superior and the inferior races do not arise. Yet I find that a democratic audience such as one sees at the ring or the Liverpool Stadium, does not care for those black and white bouts. And at Cardiff and other places, where the disgust sight of 'flash niggers' going about with white girls has caused racial riots on a small scale, I am told they are forbidden by the police. Many Negro boxers, I admit have fought in a clean, sportsmanlike style and proved themselves decent well mannered men outside the squared circle. Peter Jackson, the greatest of all colored pugilists, had the instincts of a sportsman and a gentleman. Sam Langford that genial humorist with a smile like a red earthquake is a most likable creature. And the Dixie kid fought like an artist and was quite in offensive in his conduct Physical Inequalities Still leaving out of consideration the question of the relations between the two races there are sound reasons why black-and-white prizefights should be taboo. The Negro has physical advantages which other things being equal or nearly so should enable him to beat a white man. He has a lower nervous organization, which renders him far less susceptible to pain or shock. His skull is harder and thicker than the white man's, and in many cases he can take a blow on the chin with impunity, which would destroy the equilibrium of the liquids in the neural channels of any white man, thus bringing about the phenomenon of the knockout. It is often said that the Negro's stomach is a weak spot. That is a fallacy, as ring experience shows and as medical authority insists. The skin is always a weak spot with colored folk (even quadroons or octogonns) but that is no help to the white boxer who would be properly disqualified if he tried to hack the "chunk of smoker" opposed to him. On the whole, I cannot help thinking white men should not fight black men in the ring. And I feel sure SEND NO MONEY FOR THESE AUTOMATICS $12.75 A simple and useful hand gun for daily use.
