ENEMY ORGANIZATIONS THAT FIGHT UNDERHAND AGAINST GREAT MOVEMENT
VOL. XIII. No. 24
FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting:
The enemies of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, namely, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the so-called African Blood Brotherhood, Friends of Negro Freedom and some of the Negro newspapers have descended to a very low level when they can find no other means of fighting our organization than by misrepresenting us to the white race and to the Government. This reminds us of the attitude of the Jews toward their countryman and Savior, Jesus. They hated the man who was called Jesus, who had come to save them, because he was a Jew like themselves, they claimed, and that He should thereby have no special privilege over them except He was born to immediate temporal authority. Because of their jealousy of the humble Nazarene, they sought in every way to discredit and subsequently to kill Him. They found out that they had no power to interfere with the career of the man Jesus, because all authority was vested in the Roman Government. The result, therefore, was to misrepresent Jesus to the Roman authorities and to get them to do what they as Jews were unable to accomplish. They ultimately succeeded in crucifying Jesus, even though the Roman Governor and Judge persuaded them to the knowledge that Jesus had done no wrong, and even though through an enforced conviction when he besought of them to allow him to let the innocent Jesus go as an act of executive clemency, they said, "No; we would prefer Barabbas go than Jesus," yet Barabbas was the greatest menace to the race and to society at that time.
THE ENEMIES OF THE U. N. I. A.
These Negroes who have been unable to do any harm to the Universal Negro Improvement Association because of its potency, and because of the impotence of Negroes to harm each other, have sought the majesty of the United States Government to get the Federal authorities to do what they of themselves could not do. But there may be a sad disappointment in store for somebody. The Jews were disappointed, because after the crucifixion of Jesus the doctrine He taught took a greater turn and scattered itself around the world, and today man in every clime professes His faith. I wonder if these Negroes realize that they are but laying the foundation for a greater Universal Negro Improvement Association when they attempt by their wicked propaganda and tactics to hold up the only movement through which the race will see salvation. We are not disturbed, we are only amused at the action of these traitors of the race. They have written all kinds of letters, they have made all kinds of misrepresentations to the white press and to the Government authorities, but it generally turns out that the fellow who digs the pit for the other falls into it himself. What these Negroes hope to achieve by so designedly and wickedly misrepresenting a Negro movement that is seeking the interest of the four hundred

million Negroes of the world it is impossible to imagine. If it were possible for them to do harm to the Universal Negro Improvement Association what would be the result but that in time harm would be done to themselves by the very agency that they are using now to defeat this great organization. If you show a thief how to break into your neighbor's house it is only a question of time when he will break into yours. So that we are giving these fellows all the rope they want; one of these days they will hang themselves.
THE U. N. I. A. NOT ANARCHISTIC
It is strange, however, to see that the officials of the Government could be so carried away with mis-information as to allege that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is anarchistic and desires to overthrow the government. Why, the very people who gave them the information are the ones who are anarchists and who are no doubt plotting to overthrow the Government. If they want anarchistic literature they will not look for it in the meeting places or offices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but if they will investigate a little more they will find that their informants, who are agents of the Bolshevists, are the ones who have all the anarchistic literature in their possession, in that they openly receive money from Moscow and consort with the Soviet Government for the destruction of all other governments.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association is not Socialist, Bolshevist nor anarchistic. We have absolutely no connection with any other organization but oursleves—we are proNegro. We believe that to be Socialists, Soviets, or what not, would be like being anything else among other people, and we are tired of following; we lead ourselves. The only connection we have is that which will make us a free and independent race of people on the continent of Africa. We have not to go to Russia for that; we have not to join the Socialist party for that. We can work for that ourselves.
No one needs fear that the Universal Negro Improvement Association would waste its time joining any radical group of white men in any way for the overthrow of any government. No one could claim ever giving the Universal Negro Improvement Association one penny for spreading propaganda. Everything that we have done

came through our own dimes and dollars, so that we have absolutely no obligation to anyone to make us anything else than what we are.
THE CRITICS OF THE U. N. I. A.
The Negroes who lead the anti-Universal Negro Improvement Association movements are of the type who have never been any use to the race, and will never be any, in that they fear the success of any real Negro movement which would detract from them the notoriety that they desire, which they generally use for the purpose of exploiting the ignorant of the race by presenting themselves as great leaders. The people are, however, gradually being awakened, and one of these fine mornings it would not be surprising if these so-called leaders find themselves deserted and despised by those whom they have deceived for so long.
Since these enemy organizations are determined to fight the Universal Negro Improvement Association by foul and unfair means, we promise them that we shall spare some time to present our case to the world as it should be and make it much harder for them to collect from the philanthropic whites whom they have tried to exploit for the last fourteen years. We shall let some of these men find useful occupations after we are through with them and not continue to live upon the charity of the sympathetic white people who have fed them under the belief of helping the race. Each of these leaders has his own pet group of white patrons to collect from, and that is why they viciously attack the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in that they realize that their occupations are going, and it is not so easy to collect now as before the organization came upon the scene, in that the white race is getting to understand that all Negroes are not beggars and that the representations that have been made to them before are false and inaccurate; hence, the tightening up upon these fellows who have had an easy time in collecting for philanthropic and uplift movements among Negroes.
THE NEED OF UNITY
Let all members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association unite the more throughout America and the world for the carrying through of the principles of this great organization. Now is the time for every loyal member to stand firm to the colors. The organization must be protected, and now is the time to do it. All divisions and members are requested to make an effort to pay their $1.00 assessment tax for this month of January, so as to enable the Parent Body to meet its annual budget. It is understood that no member will be regarded as financial except the $1.00 tax is paid. Pay this tax to your local immediately. With very best wishes for your success. I have the honor to be

DEFENSE FUND FOR THE NEW ORLEANS
DIVISION OF THE U. N. 1. A. AND DYER AND
SESE INNOCENT MEN CHARGED
WITH THE DEATH OF J. W. H. EASON
‘The enemies of the Universal Negro Improvemeht Association are
endeavoring to fasten upon the organization the responsibility for the
shooting and death ot JW. H. Eason in New Orleans. Two members
uf the New Orleans division of the association—Dyer and Shakespeare
— upon the false charge of one of Eason’s women, are now held for the
crime
These men have declared their innocence, and it now becomes the
duty of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association
to defend then:
Subsequent to the arrest of Dyer ond Shakespeare the police
authorites of New Orleans raided a meeting of the New Orleans
thvision and arrested all of its officers, including the first assistant sec-
retary-general, Hon, Thomas W. Andefson, who was sent from head-
ainarters to investigate the arrest of Dyer and Shakespeare.
The enenuies of the association are responsible for the above occur-
rences, as t will appear that they are endeavoring to use the authorities
to mumidate the Universal Negro Improvement Association, as they
shenselves were unable to harm the greatest Negro movement in the
world
It becomes the duty of every member throughout the world to rally
to the defense fund for the New Orleans division,
All chyts:ons throughout the United States of America and shoes
are hereby requested to lift a special collection next Sunday for the
defense fund of the New Orleans division and to telegraph on Monday

THE MIRRORS OF CIVILIZATION
WE have already referred to "The Mirrors of Downing Street," presumably by Mr. Oliver; "The Mirrors of Washington," by a correspondent, and "Toward Higher Ground," by Dr Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University. There are two attitudes that thoughtful Caucasians assume toward the regnant Anglo-Saxon civilization. There are those who, like Lothrop Stoddard, Madison Grant and Henry Fairfield Osborne, think that it is perfect and that the Nordics are the "Uber Mensch"—the supermen among mortals. And there are those who saw like Emerson, Norton of Harvard and Sumner and Ladd of Yale, and who see like the authors of the two books and the address previously mentioned that it can be improved.
There is no doubt that the buildings, the bridges, the subways, the tubes under riverbeds, the automobile, the locomotive, the palatial steamships, the microscope, the telescope, the X-ray, the radio, the electric light, the vitascope, the graphophone, the telephone, the telegraph and the wireless telegraphy, the submarine and the airplane, which enable us to transform night into day, move rapidly over land or water, go under the water like a fish and up in the air like a bird, to bridge chasms, tunnel under riverbeds and annihilate space, transcend the wildest dreams and imaginings of the Periclean or Augustan age.
There are more marvels and wonders in New York city alone than there were in Rome, Carthage, Athens, Cairo, Alexandria, Thebes, Damascus, Ephesus, Jerusalem, Babylon and Nineveh combined in ancient times. There are more architectural, bridge building and engineering masterpieces in New York city alone than there were in the ancient Roman Empire, which stretched in its palestest days from the one end of Germany to the Sahara desert, from the British Isles to the Indian empire in Asia.
There are seven marvels in and around Harlem alone that could share with the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. These are the college of the City of New York, one of the buildings of Columbia University, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Morningside Park (out of the rocks), Riverside Drive, and the Broadway and Bronx subways.
Then the big railroads, the big factories, the big department stores and the representative government in the United Stats would have dazzled the ancients. But resplendent as is modern civilization on its material side, the judicious have observed that there is considerable room for improvement on the spiritual side.
"THE MIRRORS OF DOWNING STREET"
"The Mirrors of Downing Street" is a remarkable book. It shows that England is producing clever politicians and opportunists instead of great statesmen. It shows that David Lloyd George, the Rt. Hon. Mr. Asquith, the Rt. Hon. Arthur Balfour and the Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill lost their grip and influence upon English affairs because in crises they sacrificed principle to expediency. It shows how they lacked the courage and high principle to boldly indorse and back up Lord Haldane, Secretary of State for War, when he was falsely accused of flirting with Germany in delaying war preparations. But in reality his splendid preparations paved the way for the mobilizing and speedily dispatching of troops across the English channel to the Continent. And he, more than David Lloyd George, won the war for England.
The book also refers to Lord Fisher, blunt but brilliant, courageous and whole souled; to Lord Kitchener, mediocre but courageous, and to Lord Haldane and Lord Carnock, men of vision, intellectual grasp, courage and high principle, who are and were the silver lining in England's dark political cloud. "The Mirrors of Downing Street" was written by a statesman, a prophet and a preacher of righteousness. And the author will go down in history as a moral force in English life and politics.
"THE MIRRORS OF WASHINGTON"
"The Mirrors of Washington" is a brilliant hook. It aptly summarizes the careers and sizes up the personalities of Warren G. Harding, Woodrow Wilson, George Harvey, Charles Evans Hughes, Edward Mandell House, Herbert Clark Hoover, Henry Cahot Lodge, Bernard Mannes Baruch, Elihu Root, Hiram Warren Johnson, Philander Chase Knox, Robert Lansing, Boies Penrose and William Edgar Borah.
It runs somewhat afield when it states, that it is a disappointment that Mr. Lodge accomplished so little, that Mr. Knox might have been President but for his superciliousness and that Elihu Root might have been President of the United States or Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, or given to the United States Senate greater weight and influence or been Secretary of State under Mr. Harding if distrust of him had not barred the way.
It is a matter of general knowledge that some of America's greatest statesmen and most brilliant orators, like Alexander Hamilton, Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, Charles Sumner, James G. Blaine, Roscoe Conkling, Thomas Brackett Reed and Charles Evans Hughes, did not land in the White House. The masses do not warm up to an intellectual man. If he is intellectual, magnetic and courageous the political bosses will be afraid of him. If he sacrifices principles to expediency the masses will distrust him. If he is a brave crusader, like Teddy Roosevelt, the bosses will endeavor to head him off. So if he is an intellectual giant, whether he compromises or does not compromise, he will find it difficult to land in the White House.
"TOWARD HIGHER GROUND"
"Toward Higher Ground," a published address by Dr. Nicholas Hunter Butler, president of Columbia University, stamps him as a col-
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1923
lege president of the type of Dr Theodore Dwight Woolsey and Dr. Charles W. Eliot of Harvard, men of vision and courage, men of breadth of culture and high ideals, who endeavored to lift the moral tone of American life as a whole. The address begins by saying "The panorama that unfolds before the traveler who goes directly from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific is unexamined in its varied and compelling interests. The large, quickly succeeding cities of the Atlantic seaboard are followed by the flat country beyond the Alleghanies, and that by the prairies, with their score of cities, towns and villages, their busy factories and their fertile farms. After the prairie come the plains, rising from the Missouri River like the great ground swell of the ocean and carrying vast acres of corn and wheat and enormous herds of horses, sheep and cattle. The Rocky Mountains, with jagged peaks and fertile parks between, divide the waters of the continent. Then for hundreds of miles are arid lands, bad lands and desert, dotted with oases and having a charm that is all their own. Finally, the traveler, going over the top of the Sierra range, plunges down into the golden gardens of California and the waters of the Pacific come up to his feet."
This is a powerful and picturesque bit of writing, and brilliantly characterizes America. There is so much thought and wisdom and sound political philosophy packed and compressed into the eighteen pages of this pamphlet that we have not space to do justice to it here, and will reserve consideration of it until next week. But this pamphlet and books like "Mirrors of Downing Street" and "Mirrors of Washington" are needed in England and America today to reuse them from their smug complacency and to let them know that the millionum has not yet arrived. W H P
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF PRESIDENT LOWELL
WE have received letters asking our view of the significance of President Lowell's action in excluding colored students from the Harvard freshman dormitories. It indicates two things. First, that President Abbott Lawrence Lowell no longer views the Negro with a sympathetic, but with a critical eye, secondly, that viewing him with a critical eye, he has not been overimpressed by the intellectuality and personality of the colored students, colored representatives of Southern schools and colored citizens of Boston that he has met in the fifteen years that he has been president of the university to which Dr Charles W. Ehlot and his associates gave world fame.
It only means that the Negro is now up against the "struggle for existence" and "the survival of the littest." He cannot hope much longer to expect sympathy because he is colored, but only recognition because of his individual worth and intellectual, financial and political prestige. Let the Negro get knowledge in his head, grace in his heart, skill in his hands and money in his pockets, let him become a factor to be reckoned with industrially, commercially and politically and he will win his way in spite of opposition, as the Jews have
There have always been two types of Caucasians in the North. They existed in antebellum days, in reconstruction days, and they exist today. The one type is represented by Dr. Charles W. Ehlot, president emeritus of Harvard University, who believes that the worth of a man resided in the gray matter in his brain and the nobility of his soul rather than in the color of his skin. The other type is represented by Dr. Abbott Lawrence Lowell, who says in substance, "The Negro is inferior. I am from Missouri. You must show me." It is up to the Negro, by the cumulative force of his personality, character, deeds and achievements to convince Dr. Lowell and other Doubting Thomases that the Negro is made out of the same clay as the rest of mankind, that he can keep abreast of modern civilization, make contributions to it and is advanced intellectually, aesthetically and ethically to the point where he is fit to dwell under the same roof which houses the descendants of the Nordic race, which borrowed its civilization from the Romans, Greeks, Hebrews and Arabians, and now crowds like the cock that St. Peter he'd after he denied his Lord and Master.
THE FORCES OF LIBERTY
At this moment the forces working for a liberalism are beset on all sides by the howls. On one hand the Ku Klux Klan is determined for white democracy, on the other the street are emitting a trail of pale green smoke to the radical challenge.
Then, it is hell! It is hell to live! It is hell!
Once on the other side of the fence—on liberalism—it is impossible to turn back! On and on the mighty emancipated soil there is no turning back.
And of the hour is courage Courage to stuff jaws, to put the fear of God into our heels. Negro needs at this moment For a crisis in black man is ready to back up by a flawless for the rights and privileges society accol. On all sides the enemy is testing us A courage? Are we really in earnest about this? Are we really?
Couraging. A unified front is the only to Negro. Scanning a single edition of the more Henry Ford is to publicly speak at a meeting we find the Negro population of an Indian 400 white miners because a twelve-year-old have been raped supposedly by a Negro man staking his life to "Keep Negro what are we drifting to?" War, civil war seems to be the only way out Society as it osperping on the lust and promises of bigotry in this cloud of dust and darkness and traps most better to be dead than to be black
Just at this moment the forces working for a broader sweep of liberalism are beset on all sides by the howling capitalist pack. On one hand the Ku Klux Klan is determined to make America safe for white democracy, on the other the silent pyramids of Wall Street are emitting a trail of pale green smoke—the bourgeois retort to the radical challenge.
Black men, it is hell! It is hell to live! It is hell to be black and radical. Once on the other side of the fence—on the fence of progressive liberalism—it is impossible to turn back. There is no turning back! On and on the mighty emancipated soul stalks, on, on, on. There is no turning back
The need of the hour is courage. Courage to stuffen our backs, to steel our jaws, to put the fear of God into our hearts. That is what the Negro needs at this moment. For a crisis is ahead of us. Unless the black man is ready to back up by a flawless united front his demand for the rights and privileges society accords a man—he is doomed. On all sides the enemy is testing us. Are we strong? Have we courage? Are we really in earnest about this human rights business? Are we really?
It is discouraging. A unified front is the only thing that will save the Negro. Scanning a single edition of the morning paper we find that Henry Ford is to publicly speak at a meeting of the Ku Klux Klan, we find the Negro population of the Indiana town driven out by some 400 white miners because a twelve-year-old girl is alleged to have been raped supposedly by a Negro, we find a "Brooklyn" man staking his life to "Keep Negroes in their places"—What are we drifting to? War, civil war, Anarchism, Chaos. It seems to be the only way out. Society as it is today constituted is prospering on the last and promises of bigotry and prejudice. For the Negro in this cloud of dust and darkness and tragic disillusionments it is almost better to be dead than to be black.

IT is difficult to credit the news from St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, that Thomas McCants Stewart is dead there. It was only in the late holidays that he sat in our office and went over with us some of the exciting times we had gone through in the early struggles of the race in New York City to secure a place on the political and civil map. Beginning way back thirty years ago, Mr. Stewart was not only in the thickest of the fight but a leader in law, in politics and in church and civic upl it work. He helped dig the foundation of everything the race has in New York City and Brooklyn. He and Dr. William H. Brooks of St. Mark's Church and the editor of the Negro Times were co-workers in those days with many other able and devoted men and women, most of whom, like Mr. Stewart, have answered the call to reward from labor
Twenty years ago Mr. Stewart went to the Territory of Hawaii at the instance of British capitalists to represent them in some valuable interests. He stood very high at the New York bar and became a leader at the bar in Hawaii in so far that he was authorized with two others, who left the work to him, to codify the laws of Hawaii. When the editor of the Negro Times was in Hawaii, in 1900, the brother of General Armstrong and many other strong men in Honolulu said that a strong movement had been on foot to have the President appoint Mr. Stewart as Governor of the islands, so commanding was the position he had made for himself at the bar and in
politics, but the movement fell through, perhaps because Mr. Stewart did not care for it. The same British interests that induced Mr. Stewart to go to Hawaii induced him to go to Liberia, West Africa, where he made a big place for himself and was advanced to the bench of the Supreme Court. It was impossible for Mr. Stewart to live in any place without taking a leading and commanding position. This was shown to be the case when as a young man in the reconstruction days he became a partner in the celebrated law firm of Elliott, Straker, Dunbar and Stewart at Charleston, S. C., and exercised an influence out of all proportion to his years and experience. After practicing law in London for some time Mr. Stewart went to St. Thomas and soon became one of the leading men of the Virgin Islands.
He was a scholarly gentleman a brilliant orator and a devoted worker for the best interests of the Negro people, for whom he made conditions better wherever he labored, and died in harness at sixty-eight years of age, strong for the work in which he always had delight — Negro Times.
BISHOP BENJAMIN TUCKER TANNER
THE death of Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner at Philadelphia was no surprise to those who have known that he has long been an invalid, but the general regret will be nonetheless been at the passing of one of the great preachers, editors and lishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. He distinguished himself in every one of the departments of church work to which he was called, but in none was he more brilliant and effective than as editor of the Christian Record.
Bishop Tanner was one of the most tireless workers in the church and made a record of his ministry which will always be of value to the historian and the seekers after historical truth. We need not despair when we can have the life services of such capable and loyal race men as Benjamin Tucker Tanner—Negro Times
CORRESPONDENCE
PROF. KELLY MILLER ON THANKSGIVING NIGHT IN WASHINGTON AFTER THE LINCOLN-HOWARD GAME
---
Dear Mr. Editor
I have noted with much concern Prof Kelly Miller's letter which appeared in the Pittsburgh Courier and was reproduced in several other journals describing the peculiar psychosis of the 'cream' of our race as expressed in the revelries of Thanksgiving night in Washington following the Lincoln-Howard game. With him and with all other serious minds of the race I deplore the event. That was indeed a time of crisis, and a time of opportunity too, but the opportunity slipped and the crisis terminated disastrously. The Diver Bill, figuratively speaking, hanging in the balance of death on the very night was hung dead on the scaffold in the Senate following this night of wasted opportunity.
Proof Miller asks the question: "Is it not time for the leaders of the race to call attention to this frivolous to a dency?" To this would a grand chorus of sources respond. "True." But it seems to me Mr. Editor that the professor's question ought to be preceded by this one namely, "Is it not time that the leaders of the race WAKE UP and LEAD or else sleep on and let a new crop of leaders have the right of way."
Let us fix blame where properly it belongs. It is only thus that truth is served. Is it not a fact Mr. Editor, that the leaders were on this occasion like Ahaba god on Carmel's peak? They were either 'on a Journey' 'anicep' or else mixed in with the crowd held up for consure. They were certainly not on the job. And what are we to expect of the crowd?
Please permit if you will, sir, to make two observations and state a conclusion
1. The intelligence of the crowd is usually below the intelligence of the average members of the crowd. I think that all those who have had experience with crowds, who understand crowd psychology, would subscribe to this statement. Now it is quite true I guess, that those held up for censure represented the cream' of the race as the Christian Recorder purse. At any rate a cameraman that dream they were quite a representative crowd. According to Prof Miller, the government clerk's school teacher the professional man, the waiter the cook and the servant folk were there. So much the better then, for our observation—what better could be expected of a heterogeneous group, unharmed unhitched and unbridled.
2. My second observation is that, as in the case of the individual so in the case of the crowd, yes, more so, the "set" or "frame" of the mind is a powerful determinant of the nature of thought or deed that will be sequent to thought or deed that is antecedent. Now, there is nothing to be gained by closing our eyes to the fact that the mind of the crowd was "set" upon just the thing that the crowd did do. That thing had grown from custom to habit. Ithilicity had been the annual climax for the great football classic. To have turned the thought-stream from its habitual course into a channel that would have been more profitable meant that such a channel should have been dug by the engineers of our race driving.
In all frankness a 1 in fairness to Professor Kelly Miller, I have to over that for the crowd to have gravitated in a direction contrary to the course actually taken, under the circumstances, would have been to expect too much. And when I say so I am making every allowance for the antitrenching propaganda broadcasted by the various socio-civic organization, of which the N. A. A. C. P. is the accepted leader. It is true that the propaganda has been carried on with relentless vigor and persistency, but
BRUCE GRIT'S COLUMN
was applicable to this situation it was
decisively non-specific.
Prof Miller quite unintentionally lays heavy hands and sturdy strokes upon the backs of the "leaders" when he declares, "Every dance hall in the capital of the nation, as hired long in advance by the pleasure-loving colored citizens." To validate the truth of that statement is to minimize the leadership of the race. Just what were they doing when these contrary preparations were being made—when these halls were being preempted in advance for purposes of fidelity? Surely they must have been blind leaders. I recall a very significant statement of Jesus of Nazareth when on one occasion he declared that "the children of this generation are wiser than the children of the light." Such a declaration seems quite propos here. Th were wiser in that they were up and doing while the leaders slept. For sleeping they surely must have been when all around them "the pleasure-loving" were making ready to furnish entertainment for the crowd and they were doing nothing to counteract it. Crowds, like individuals, are of the monotony of the "thou shalt not." Positive substitutes for mere prohibitions must be furnished them. I was not in Washington, and I know not what the leaders were doing to slave off this thing, but absence of information to the contrary leads one to suspect that they were doing nothing
The lament of Professor Miller is shared by every serious-minded member of the race. But Mr. Editor it is rather belated and its driving force comes to not a few of us as an indictment against the morbund, old-crowd leadership, primarily, and only secondarily if at all, as a censure of the irresponsible, leaderless crowd "Where there is no vision the people perish" is an old saying, but it rings true today.
3 My conclusion is the conclusion shared by many a young man. Here it is. You may take it for what you think it is worth. We need, today, a leadership that stands on the watch-tower, a leadership that is not dreaming dreams but seeing visions, a leadership that is (1) alive, (2) awake and (3) vigilant. Until that type of leadership gets the right of way we may expect the crowd to fiddle 'while the fire burns.

THE COLOR LINE AT HARVARD
To the Editor of The World
This morning I have read with interest The World a striking editorial on the Color Line at Harvard. I call it striking because it hits not only the nail but some other heads. I was a student at Phillips Exeter Academy at the time when Lincoln a
It is to be regretted that the secretary of the interior Hon A B. Fall, who on taking the office made as one of his first appointments that of Henry O. Flipper, Esq. known to him personally and professionally as an engineer and linguist of acknowledged ability, is to resign this post to take up other work Henry O. Flipper has been for the last forty years trying to get justice from the U. B Government for the bad treatment accorded him while he was lieutenant in the army. He was one among the first young men of the race to pass an examination to enter West Point and like all of his predecessors and successors, he was bedevilled, but finally graduated.
The retirement of Mr Fall will probably mean the demotion or a transfer of Mr. Flipper to some other division of the department where he will exercise less authority than he does at present as special assistant to the secretary. I trust neither of
son, Robert Tod Lincoln, was fitting there for Harvard. At the same time Richard Greener, the colored student, was skip at Exeter fitting for Harvard, during the Civil War Greener was probably the first colored boy that had entered the school where Daniel Webster had also fitted for college.
Young Lincoln and Greener attracted no more attention than any other students. Both went to Harvard and, as at Exeter, Greener at Harvard moved about as any other student, conducting himself with the courtesy of a gentle man, but unobtrusive.
It seems strange and anachronistic that Harvard today should slump or "flunk" back seventy years on the question of human rights in the land of Lincoln.
Last summer I viewed the status of William Lloyd Garrison on Commonwealth avenue, Boston, and that of Wendell Phillips on Boylston street and I recalled with pleasure that when I was at Harvard I had listened to each of them in Boston, both apostles of freedom

WORLD WONDER OIL CO.
FORGING ITS WAY AHEAD
The World Wonder Oil Company plans the biggest drilling campaign this year in its history.
At a recent meeting of the board of directors plans were outlined to make 1973 the most successful year that the company has had.
Plans were outlined for the immediate completion of its well at Mexia Tex., which is now 2,700 feet deep, and to drill two other wells, one in Oklahoma and one in the great oil fields of Smackover, Arkansas.
Mr J J Allen, president of the company, together with his loyal coworkers, is determined to prove to the people that Negroes can successfully operate an oil company and make money for its stockholders.
Mr. Allen in addressing his board of directors is quoted as saying "Our people as a whole have been led to believe that the oil business is a fake and that it is not a paying business for the small investor, when in reality it is the greatest business in America and the only one whereby the small investor can hope to receive real large returns on his money." He further stated that, "as a rule the oil companies operated by the better class of white men didn't offer their shares to our people and that the majority of white companies which offered their shares to our people were the dislown promoters who never intended to produce any oil and pay dividends to its stockholders."
He says that our people own up to millions in valuable oil lands and it is our duty to put our money together and get the oil out of the ground and sell it and distribute the money among our people in dividends.
J. J. Allen I. O. Mitchell George W. Hedgepeth V. C. Foudamore and E. A. Whitfield have formed a combination and have pledged themselves to raise the required amount of money through the sale of stock to enable the company to carry out its drilling program. We are very desirous of enlisting the services of other salesmen and sales women throughout the country.
We have also decided to publish a monthly paper, to be known as the New Groo World for the purpose of keeping our people informed on the activities of our company and of the business in general.
If you are interested, write us. Address World Wonders Oil & (as) World Wonder Building, 1710 East Eighteenth street, Kansas City, Mo.
these things will happen but one can never tell which way the cat will hop when a big braided broad minded, square dealing, white public official leaves office and behind him a Negro appointee whom he respects for his ability and rewards with office because of the injustice he has received in the past from the Government which it for some reason refuses to rectify. H O. Flipper is a mining engineer who has done good work in New Mexico. Arizona and for mining interest with which Hon. A B. Fall has been identified. He speaks and writes Spanish like a native and proved useful to Senator Fall in translating Spanish deeds to old mining properties in New Mexico and Arizona, operated by the syndicate of which Mr Fall was a member. It is to be hoped that the tenure of office of this useful and professionally accomplished member of our race will not be affected by the retirement of Secretary Fall from the office of secretary of the interior.
DR. RAWLINS' LECTURE ON THE EFFECTS OF NORTHERN CLIMATE ON PEOPLE FROM THE TROPICS
Popular Medico Deals in an Interesting Way With a Subject of Special Interest to a Large Number of Colored People in Harlem, Who Came Here From Tropical Isles of the West
SOME EFFECTS THAT AFFECT THE HEALTH
At the 135th street branch of the New York Public Library on Thursday night, under the auspices of the North Harlem Community Forum, Dr Elliot Rawlins delivered a lecture in anticipation of Health Exposition Week which began on the 22nd inst. There was quite a large and appreciative gathering and the topic proved very interesting. It was entitled "The Physiological Effects of a Northern Climate on Persons Born in the Tropics." Mr Chloe Jemmott presided and the lecturer said in part
All that I shall say on this subject has a bearing only upon persons born in the tropics who come to a Northern climate after the age of sixteen years, for before this the cell structures of the various organs of the body have not developed to their full and complete growth, and the colder climate does not have any appreciable effect upon the organs of the body. The blood circulating through the body from finger tips to the tree helps to keep the body warm. The haemoglobin of the blood cells absorb as it were, the oxygen from the air and this during the process of metabolism is burned up and heat of the body results. In those people born in the tropics who have lived there during the first sixteen years of their life the physiological activity of the blood making organs which manufacture the haemoglobin has become used to producing an amount of this material just sufficient for a hot climate and thus when suddenly these same individuals come to a cold climate in which an excessive haemoglobin is necessary to take the large amount of oxygen needed, the sudden nervous impulses needed to do this quite often are not equal to the task, and thus the required heat needed for the body is deficient, and these individuals catch cold because of the cooling of the body. The skin is the greatest heat regulator of the body; through the sweat gland over the surface of the skin water evaporates and chills the body. In the tropics there is an excessive and continuous activity of the sweat glands in order that there will be sufficient radiation of heat through evaporation to reduce the excessive internal heat of the body. The sweat glands necessarily are overactive, when the sweat glands are active the kidneys do not have an much work to do for much poison of the body is removed through the sweat of the skin. When people from the tropics come to a cold climate the sweat glands of the skin do not have to be overactive, for the atmosphere is cold, thus there is a sudden strain placed upon the kidneys, for the individuals, not sweating as much as before, more poisons from the body have to be excreted through the kidneys, thus there is a sudden and new overactivity of the kidneys, quite frequently the kidneys weaken, the burden being new and the kidney cells being used to just a certain amount of work and kidney congestion and retention of body pores quite often result.
Within the nose are what are known as the swell bodies, these are erectile tissues which, according to the surrounding atmospheric temperature, swell or contract. In the tropics, where the air is warm or hot, these bodies are continuously contracted; to give plenty of space for a large amount of air to be breathed into the lungs; when one who has lived for a long time in such hot climate comes to a country where the atmosphere is cold, it is imperative to have these "swell bodies" to enlarge. This is necessary to make the nasal passage smaller in order to prevent an excess of cold air getting into the lungs. In a large number of these people these erectile tissues refuse to function, having been used for so long to being in a contracted condition, and thus an excess of cold air finds its way through the widely open passages of the nose into the lungs. In this way colds, bronchitis and lung congestions quite often develop.
The toatls are glands on either side of the throat in the region called the pharynx. In hot countries these glands are small and inactive. When one comes from a hot to a cold climate there is a sudden shock to the cells of these glands and they become congested, swollen and inflamed. Thus toatllis and pharyngitis are frequent in those people from the tropics now living in a colder climate. Above each eye and connected with the nose are spaces called the supra orbital spaces. When we breathe part of the air passes from the nose into these spaces through a small opening. People from the tropics coming to a colder climate frequently have this passage stopped up by the cold air congesting the mucous lining of this small opening. These

tissues are not used to this cold air, and they swell. The result of this is that no air during the act of nosse breathing passes into these supral orbital spaces, and so whatever air is in there before it became closed finally becomes stagnant and produces a terrific headache. In other words, this cold air produces a nasal congestion, because the cells of this delicate membrane have not been used to its irritation.
Several questions were asked the medicine, to which he suitably replied. At the conclusion he was accorded a hearty vote of thanks for his illuminating discourse.
EXORDIUM TO POST-HOLIDAY RESUMPTION OF LECTURES ON CRIMINAL LAW
By PROF. WM. H. H. HART, A. M. LL. M.
Ladies and gentlemen, I congratulate you upon meeting here in the new year in our first session—having gone through the holidays—to resume the regular hard work which brings us here in preparation for a life of usefulness, of honor and, last but not least, of profit
Your presence here indicates that you believe yourself, individually, and yourselves, collectively, to be endowed with the exceptional qualities of human leadership, and that you propose to take your place among that body of men and women in the world who shape its destiny and who promote its progress. Many things are happening, almost in your personal presence, that have a world-wide significance. It is happening in your native country and in your native language, and in deference and honor to the service of your native social and political institutions.
It seems to me, without any degrees of self-oxegregation, that you are indeed at this moment in the very forefront of that march of humanity which is to change the world from that which it now is into those things flowing from your labor, your aspirations, and your ideals. I think that it is a great blessing for you to have been born at the time you were, and now at the very crest of your manhood to be entering into the strife for better things for the whole world. But, gentlemen, we cannot shape the world, nor society, nor even our individual selves, according to our own particular and peculiar wish or ambition. We come out of the past, with its force and power, its children begotten of its life, and whether we choose to call ourselves privileged inheritors of that past or its helpless victims does not alter the case—that we cannot escape it. We are ruled and served and limited by the hands of the dead, the same as if they stood in our bower and clamped the chains of their institutions around our necks. Tradition, history, the record of the forces which gave us life inevitably shape the present and determine what our future is to be.
(Just prior to the hour of opening, while the class was rapidly gathering. Messas, Henry Penn and Woolsey Hall, members of the class, with seeming amug satisfaction, alluded to their attendance upon the meetings of the American Negro Academy during the holidays just closed.]
We have been having in this community, very recently, a widely advertised and exploited "Negro Academy," so called. An interesting thing, I should imagine, that would deserve to bear that name—"Negro Academy," a Negro institution of learning, learning the history of the past, the opportunities of the present, and the duties of the future. But the term "Negro Academy," in the real sense in which it is used among us, is woefully misleading and unless you understand the exact nature and character of this institution operating among us, it is calculated to do you a great deal of harm, because it will fill you with erroneous ideas, and erroneous ideas lead to false actions, which involve individual loss. The truth alone can make you free and the truth alone can put you in a position and a condition to
THE NEGRO-WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1923
make the very utmost of the powers which you have acquired and help you to put them under a course of discipline, which will increase all of your powers—spiritually, mentally, morally and naturally—up to the very limit of the possibilities of your individual character. So the truth is worth more than all else, because it is the indispensable possession by which all else most come to you, or be lost to you.
When I stated to you that nature, the resultant of all the forces which stamp vegetable and animal organisms, had predetermined what we are generations before we were born, I had in mind what this same resultant force has done for the Negro. The untold millions, and cones, and ages of time have made him a mere creature of the tropical jungles of Africa, and there he is, and there he will abide forever, changing little, because it is almost impossible for him to change himself, for the reason that he can not change the forces which are elemental and cosmic which have created the environment in which he must live and dis. Looked squarely in the face, whatever happens to the Negro in Africa is of little consequence to you. You have little time to waste on irreversible and inevitable forces that you can not alter or improve. You can only sacrifice yourself to them without results beneficial to them or to you yourself. You are not Negroes! Look at your faces. There isn't a Negro in her courses in story one of your veins. You are slowly being changed from a Negro to a European, an Aryan, a trajanian—that is what you are.
And nature is doing it for you. She is not asking you to do it. She is fading you out with this change of your blood through untold generations, in both the material and the paternal sales. Its mixture has begotten a friction that is creating within you a physical possibility which no man can see the limit of, and it is not the possibilities of an African Negro. He has little. It is the possibility of the civilization of the West, under the sons of the forest, whom you are, and that all there is to it. The language you speak, the ideals you cherish, the aspirations you entertain, your hopes, your fears, your destiny are all Caucasian. Ten millions of people of color—or mixed blood—being absolutely benevolently assimilated and absorbed so that not a drop of its African ancestry will in the coming years, be visible, or important in any respect. What you eat, what you drink, what you wear, as well as what you hope and what you think and what you fear is Caucasian, created for Caucasians. You comb your hair with a comb and not with a card, because you have got hair and not wool, and all this talk about being a Negro, and Negro brotherhood, and a Negro civilization of Africa is poppycock; and ought not to deceive sensible men able to pass the entrance examination for the law department of Howard University.
So let these savants gather themselves in their so-called "Academy," with a few fatties with exaggerated lies of the past, if they want to enteral themselves in that sort of way, but don't let them feed you on that kind of fodder. Put yourself in harmony, mentally and orally, and by resolution, by y ir will, with the forces of which you are a part, and work in harmony with those who will make those forces shape the world in the future to what the needs of the world will require. Don't think that you are a thing apart and different. Let others think so, if they want to, but don't fool yourselves, nor imprison yourselves within a small group. You belong to the American nation of 110,000,000. You are of just as much importance in it as anybody else. It belongs to you and you belong to it. You are tied together by fate and fortune, and you have got to live and work and prosper and flourish, or fall and fall with it. And let the Negroes take care of themselves outside of: the United States of America, and you take care of yourselves inside of it, is my advice to you, January 3, 1922, and given without fear or favor of any being that walks the earth, and with absolute disregard of whether you like it or not! It is for your benefit. (Prolonged applause.)

A WONDERFUL new discovery now makes it little short of criminal and slovenly for anyone to go through life with ugly, nappy, crinkly hair. How often have we admired and envied the men and women who glided easily through life, admired by everyone on account of their handsome hair and neat appearance. Perhaps some such attractive handsome person has atoled the affections of a man whose man while you stood helpless to prevent. Or perhaps the good looks and snappy appearance of some fellow without half your brains enabled him to get the job which should have been yours.
Did you ever stop to think that people are not born with beautiful hair? Good looking hair is simply the result of a little care. If you want to succeed in modern life YOU MUST LOOK your best. Don't hide your light under a bushel.
For many years expert scientists have been experimenting for a preparation which will make the hair soft, long, and wavy, which will not turn the hair ped no matter how often it is used and which will do the work in a few minutes without the use of hot combs, fuss or bother. The result of all this experimentation is ZURA KINKOUT.
A large stock of Zura Kinkout was laid in when its manufacturers put it out in the market, but even the most optimistic could not anticipate or figure out such an overwhelming response. In an incredibly short time the entire supply of Zura Kinkout was gone. It disappeared like magic. The Zura offices looked like a beehive and were

| La nueva del nombramiento del
General Enoch H. Crowder, exre-
Presentante personal del presidente
Harding en Cuba, para ministro
plenipotenciaria de los Estados Uni-
dos en la reptiblica, sera bien aco-
gida por cuantos han conocido el
desenvolvimiento de la crisis eco-
nomica.
E1 general Crowder, en conjunto,
parece haber realizado una gestion
acertada, dentro del cuadro que le
marca la misiOn poco franca del
presidente de Washington, en el
momento algido de la perturbacién
cubana. De indole insdlita ya que
los Estados Unidos,mantenian en
la Habana un mmustro pleaipoten-
viario debidamente acreditado el
cargo del general Crowder le forzd
a ejercer una autoridad extraoticial,
pero amplisinia, en fa solucién de Ia
crisis, (Jue esta ha pasado ya del
periodo dificil y se encamina a una
solucion cs indudable. La situacién
del pats se cncauza hacia la nor-
mahdad, Es facil ya preveer dentro
de pocos aiios una aueva y sdlidg
prosperidad para Cuba que tanto la
merece por todos conceptos.
Cabe, sin duda gran parte del
honor de la evitacién de una ca-
tastrofe que parecia innainente, al
enviado personal de Mr. Harding.
Asi lo reconocen cubanos de todos
los partidos, Pero si su actuacion
ha sido eticaz, y por ello debe felici-
tarsele, no deja de ser conveniente,
ahora que su status oficial en Cuba
Va a regularizarse, anotar que, im-
plicitamente, su designagion como
ministro plenipotenciario, reconoce
que, hasta ahora, ha estado actuan-
Uo en una posicion irregular y fuera
de toda base normal.
Ya lo habia demostrado con elo-
cuencia diplomatica, la retirada dis-
creta del mimstro titular americano,
Mr. Long, a poco de iniciar el ge-
eral sus gestiones extra oficiales de
dictador prictico econémico y algo
‘mas que econédmico en fa Habana.
Por eso, ahora que todo parece pa-
‘sado, felizmente, y el mismo nom-
bramiento del general para repre-
sentante diplomatico anuncia la res-
tauracion, hasta en Jas apariencias
oficiales, de la normalidad, deberian
los cubanos dirigentes examinar la
transcendencia de misiones como Ia
que Crowder desempefié durante un
largo periodo en que, virtualrhente,
imponia su voluntad al ejeecutiva y
a Jas camaras cubanas en bien de su
propio pueblo, tal eomo se inter-
preta en Washington este bien. . . .
Cuba ha salvado definitivamente
la crisis mas peligrosa de su existen-
cia, La riqueza que parecia perdida
para siempre volvera pronto, en la
era de prosperidad que los peritos
financieros y econdmicos amuncian.
Pero hay otro tesoro que Cuba debe
cuidar y velar con mas celo que el
de sus Tiquezay naturales, provida-
mente reparadas dia a dia por la
naturaleza. Y ese tesoro es su so-
berania y su espiritu de nacion in-
dependiente de raza hispana. Cuba
podria arruinarse econémicamente
una docena de veces, segura del re-
torno de la prosperidad una y otra
vez por un proceso de leyes natu-
rales inmutables. Pero Cuba no
puede ita fa ruma de su nacionali-
dad sin que los patriotas cubanos y
Cuba siempre ha sido nueblo de pa-
triotas tengan que llorar, perdida
para siempre, en forma mas 6 me-
nos dis(razada, la independencia.
Misiones como 1a del general
Crowder hasta ahora. no fortalecen
moralmente a wm pais. Los cu-
hanos. como un solo hombre, deben
impedir que las causas que produ-
ieron la “representacién personal
del presidente de Washington”,
vuelvan a producirse en su noble,
hermosa y_ fecunda patria.—La

ZSon los Marroquies, Algerios y Senegaleses Negros?
Francia y Dos Antropélogos Americanos Dicen que
No, Por Canveniencia—Toda Is Bondad y Crédito
Son Negados a Nuestra Raza, Cuando Estos Se Hacen
Visibles—Una Vez Negros, Siempre Negror, Si Hemos
de Ser Negros
Face algunos dias ¢) iNew 10OrkK wens eee
esta ciudad, hizo una manifestacién, referente a que
Francia habia dicho que los ejércitos marroquies que ella
usa actualmente en la invasién de Alemania, no seran
calificados como Negros, porque no pertenecen a dicha
raza.
El mismo periédico, en su edicién del 15 de enero,
publica otra manifestacién de los Doctores Clark Wissler
v Frank Boaz, este ultimo profesor de antropologia de la
Universidad de Columbia. Estos seftores confirman las
manifestaciones de Francia. de que los marroquies y los
argerius no son Negros. El modo cemo Francia y estos
seftores hayan lIlegado a esta conclusién es dificil de
entender: sinembargo, sentimos que es simplemente el viejo
método de privar al Negro de algo que tienda a reconocerle
como una utilidad en alguna ocupacién 6 actividad.
Es costumbre de estos antropélogos, toda vez que
algun elemento de nuestra raza, ya sca este marroqul,
algerio, senegales 6 lo que fuere. realiza algo importante,
deja de ser Negro. Este modo de pensar de esos seflores
nos sugiere la siguiente pregunta: <Quién, vy qué es un
Negro? La respuesta, segun ellos, es: Un Negro es una
persona de piel oscura que nada ha realizado y a quien
los demas no estan obligados por ningun servicio util.
Si Francia ffo necesitara al presente de los ejércitos
marroquies y argerios para aumentar su ocupacién en
Alemania 6 salvar su nacién del exterminio, ellos serian
Negros. naturalmente; pero ya yue han rendido servicios
de gran estimacién para Francia’ dejan de ser miembros
de las raza Negra y pueden ser clasificados-como tipos mas
clevados, segun las manifestaciones de los dos profesores
antes mencionados.
Toda esto corrobora la politica de la Asociaci6n Uni-
versal para cl Adelanto de la Raza Negra, la cual una y
otra vez ha manifestado que el prejuicio existente en
contra del Negro no es simplemente por su color, sino
principalmente por su condicién. Si los Negros del uni-
verso rindieran independientemente servicios utiles a su
propia raza, los cuales llamaran la atencién de las demas,
todos luvs problemas de razas serian destruidos a pedazos
v cl Negro, como cualquier otro ser, podria ser respetado
y admirado
Ya quicran estos profesores 6 Francia hacer cualquier
otra cose de los marroquies, de los argerios 6 de los
senegaleses, estamos satisfechos de que sus propagandas
han hecho quc estos pueblos comprendan que sus destinos
estan ligados con el de todos los demas pueblos Negros del
universo v va que los cientos de millones de éstos ambi-
cionan una unién comin, por medio de un esfuerzo uni-
versal cooperativo, no dudamos que los marroquies y
argerios se haran cargo de fo situacién en Francia y en
Alemania, cn lo que respecta a los intereses generales
de nuestra raza. |
No han de vanagloriarnos las flores de los antropélagos
¥ estadistas quienes, por el hecho de que elementos de
Nuestra raza obtengan éxito aqui, allé 6 mas all4, mani-
fiestan que éstos no pertenecen por mas tiempo a nuestra
raza, Si éramos Negros cuando nos hallabamos bajo el
talon de la opresién, hemos de ser Negros cuando nos
veamos libres de tal arbitrariedad.
los marroquies y argerios tienen al presente una
esplendida oportunidad para demostrar en Europa el
verdadero valor del Negro. No ha de sorprendernos el
que cualquier dia en esta época de evolucién universal
veamos al Africa colonizando a Europa, del mismo modo
que ésta ha venido colonizando cl resto del mundo por
centenarcs de afios. Nos abriga la csperanza de que los}
ciércitos africanos de ocupacién en Alemania realizen que
cs su deber el adherirse a la causa de los cuatrocientos
millones de Negros del universo y todo cuanto éstos hagan
sea hajo tal punto de vista. é
Este nuevo ato abre sus puertas con brillantes
oportunidades para nuestra raza y no hemos de pasar por
madvertidas las ventajas de éstas. De acuerdo con Aes
ultimos acontecimientos, legamos a la conclusién de que
la herida que sufrié Europa en la ultima conflagracién
universal ha sido pobremente atendida y en cualquier
momento Ja vieja inflamaci6n de intrigus la abrird de
nuevo, cuyd resultado seré una herida politica mayor a
la anteriormente experimentada.
Cualquier disturbio politica en Europa ha de presentar
a los cuatrocientos millones de Negros del univgrso la
oportunidad de avanzar en su causa por emancipacién y
confiamos qué los ejercitos del Senegal, Marruecos y
Argeria no hayan de olvidar que el deber principal del
Negro es dar el primer toque de Illamada para la reden-
cién de Africa, cuando Ilegue el momento oportuno.
Estamos ya cansados de ser estirados y encogidos
aqui, allé y mas alla para copiplacer el modo de pensar
de antropélogos y estadistas. Estos nos Ilaman Negros 6

CONTEMPORARY COMMENT
THE FRUIT AND VEGETABLES WE CONSUME
The volume of fruit and farm truck the dwellers in Harlem consume is so large that the imagination plagages at an estimate. Fruit and vegetables are among the essentials of our foodstuffs. The high, prices we have to pay for such in Harlem makes the thrifty housewife blue in the face very often, but she has to pay because she must have the foodstuffs most from the Southern States and the West. Ida, and upon which most of us have fed from our childhood.
Mr. Thomas B. Patterson and experienced farm demonstration agent of the government who has done splendid work in North Carolina and Virginia has been writing instructive articles for the Negro Progress Record, published at Hampton, Va., on "Waste on the Farm" and "Cooperative Marketing," in which he says the troubles of our farmers are aggravated by criminal waste, which is a national failing, because we have so much of everything that we have not learned how to economise in anything, as Europeans and Asiatics have and to bad marketing conditions, which have constrained farmers to lose enormously because they were not so organised as to gather and ship their truck to the markets.
Mr. Patterson thinks that our farmers in the South are gradually being taught by Federal and State agents of the agricultural departments to waste as little as possible and to gather and ship their produce to market to the best advantage. This is a very great gain. The Southern whites are being taught also, as it is foolish to imagine that they are all wise in this matter or in any other matter. They also are not only human but often beautiful in dealing with themselves as well as with us. Mr. Patterson is one of the best informed and faithful workers the race has in the country. He has done wonderful uplift work among our farmers in Itawan county, N. C., and is doing like work on a larger scale in Virginia. We cannot sufficiently evaluate the services of such uplift workers in the Southern field as Mr. Patterson.
We again direct attention to the fact that we should have commission merchants' associations of our own in New York to engage in the Southern States and West Indian fruit and truck trade. It would help our farmers in both parts of the world. The field is very ripe for the harvest. We should get busy more generally in the fruit and vegetable commission business. The race needs the business and the money li the family.—Negro Times.
P. S.—Messra Poston, Dix and Jones, commission merchants, have organized a commission company to put Harlem grocery stores and restaurants in touch with the farmers of the South
THE WAY A NEW RACE IS MADE
Clement Wood, in this week's issue of the Nation, has written the frankest and most daring article on racial miscognition that ever came from a white man's pen. Mr. Wood is so fair-minded, so truthful, so unsparing of Caucasian sensibilities, that one would take him for a Negro if he was not a graduate of the Alabama State University, where Negroes are not admitted as students.
"Alabama: A Study in Ultra-Violet" is the title of the article and the substance is this. The two races have mixed and are still mixing their blood; white men cohabit with Negro women and white women with Negro men; white Southern men of high position declare amalgamation to be the only solution of the race problem; the Southern whites in their effort to keep down the Negro only stunt their own growth; and, as a result, the South has made no signal contribution to the culture and progress of the Nation.
Coming from a Southern white man such statements are epocalyx. Yet they are nothing more than an open admission of what everybody knows. Ostrich-like, the American public hides its head in the sandhill of self-complacency and denies the presence of mountainous facts. Every person of average common sense knows that white men have Negro mistresses and white women have Negro lovers. How could it be otherwise with two races living side by side? It has so happened since mankind began.
A natural law will have its way. Fire burns, water seeks its level, the force of gravitation attracts bodies to the earth. As these laws are to the physical world, so is the law of racial fusion to the biological world. Whenever two populations dwell together they will tend to coalesce, the larger gradually absorbing the smaller. This is especially true when the smaller is an object whose women in large numbers are defenseless against the men of the other race. Be a

years of misregulation in America we
have 4,000,000 murders fully a thirti-
dge of the rate and probably 4,000,000
of us are partly white. Perhaps more
than one in every 10 of us are
pure-blooded Negro. Bearing in mind
that we are absorbed are only one-
third of numerous as our observers
what will happen in the next 300 years
in 600's in a thousand.
But cry the whites and the blacks too, this is abhorred of the kind of sense here, for each thing in it bastardization of women, in nature's way of getting to work done. She takes no breed of human enemies, of sexual or legal enemies, she is blind, she neither knows nor cares that her mud and to waterloo, logging the movements of Napoleon's heavy artillery, decided the fate of Europe. Nor did the white hats of Venus dig its side because the beautiful cities of Pompeii and Her alumne stood in their path. It is so with this thing this law of racial fusion. Men demean at they shoot and burn and hang to defeat them and they owe it to deed of grief to make men the instruments of the very thing they abhor.
All the signs point to the American of the future as a compound in which the Negro shall be a prominent ingredient -The Negro Times
THE FUTURE AMERICAN TYPE OF PERSON
Mr Lathrop Stoddard of Boston author of The Rising Tide of Color in which he asserted that the black and yellow races are preparing for a grand assault upon white supremacy is worried again. In the current Saturday Evening Post he expresses his fear that Americanism as we have own it will become adulterated by the shoddy ideals of our hordes of immigrants from Southeastern Europe. He pleads for the purity of the old American stock and its traditions.
American stock and all traditions. How can Mr. Stoddard or anyone else expect the old America to endure? No nation that finally develops a distinctive racial type remains what it was originally. The pure English breed of which Mr. Stoddard speaks is the resultant of a mixture of Scotch, Plets, Romans, Norwegians, Danes, French, Angles and Saxons. The pure French stock is a compound of Goths, Franks, Celts, Itomans, Norwegians and Moors. Each successive wave of peoples was an invasion, which is nothing but a violent immigration, and each people brought in its own ideals and customs. After a thousand years of residence in one spot the different elements coalesced and formed a population homogeneous in blood, language and customs. No European people even approximates racial purity except the Jews, who themselves are far from pure. How can Mr. Stoddard expect America to escape the common lot of nations*
Americans are not fond of regarding this country as an exception to others. Of course we all prefer the old American type to the recent immigrants who just now may seem to be a shoddy lot in speech and manners. But just so did the Romans look upon the barbarous German invaders, and the Saxons on the Normans, the Spanish on the Moors, and the Britons on the Norse pirates who settled among them. A long look ahead, a thousand years or so, shows us these same Southeastern Europeans and the present American stock all blended into one type. Professor Boals of Columbia University believes that in three centuries the population of this country will be chiefly Slav and Negro. At least it is certain that when the people of that day speak of the American type they will mean something very different from what we mean now. There is no use quarreling with a natural law, which has always worked from Eden to Harlem towards the making of one race or national race type by the crossing and blending of many race types. The future American type of person will have, now has, plenty of Negro blood in it—Negro Times.
THE NEW BISHOP OF HAITI
The people of the Haitian Republic are mostly Catholic in their religion and French in their language. Some of us remember James Theodore Holly, D.D., a splendid scholar and devoted worker for Christian doctrines as a Negro among Negroes, who went to Haiti and after a long struggle and labor built up the Protestant Episcopal Church work and made it possible for his denomination to elect him as Bishop of Haiti. Since his death the work in Haiti appears to have fallen greatly.
We had hoped that a Negro priest would be designated to succeed Bishop Holly, but it was not to be. Rev Harry Roberts Carson has just been consecrated Bishop of Haiti, at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, in New York, the Right Rev. Daniel Sylvester Tuttle acting as presiding Bishop at the ceremony. Bishop Carson was selected, for the Haitian work because of his many years of missionary labor in Latin America.
It is reasonable to desire and expect that the black Episcopalians of the British and American church in American and British colonies, should have bishops of their own race, and we believe: they, will ultimately have them, even if they have to recode from the method chaprobe to do it. The white Methodist Episcopal Church of America has received from its non-Negro Episcopal, policy and the Pr testant Episcopal Church will have to do it. The Negro Times.
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1923
I have something about the controversy between Horace Conkling Hueen and President Lowell of Harvard in the way the newspapers have taken it. There was some reason to fear that on this day of bucking the newspapers might side with Mr. Lowell. But they agree that Mr. Hueen had much the better of the advantage.
That is a public respectful way of saying that Bruce made a foot out of Lowell. He certainly did. With his talent and training as a debater with his brilliant power of analysis he made Harvard a president book. He attended a M. Lowell's argument. He showed the compelling student to lie under the same roof with two hundred other students than not only in between them but more than presence in the same roadway each group intently. It is widely known that for fifty years Southern students at Harvard have slept and often under the same roof with No grades and not next to them in place without a word of praise.
Mr. Lowell also bluntly body when he said that prejudice increased when men of different races lived together. The truth is just the opposite. Throughout the New England colleges Southwestern mass. N. H. S. S. and physical strength against Negroes and have learned to respect and like them, man to man. These Southwestern have gone back home with new ideas and the increasing liberalism of the better class of Southwestern toward the Negro is due largely to them
Mr Lowell a chagrin must have in a complete when he found a opinion taking Mr Bruce a side. Mr Lowell, himself a distinguished lawyer well known that Mr Bruce has been him. He now suffers the fierce humiliation of having abandoned the traditions of his noble university, and his illustrious family of being deplorably worried in debate by a Negro and of being branded as an opponent of the best standards of his country. The crowning humiliation is that he must know, as an intelligent man, that public opinion does not think him too enough to be the president of Harvard University — Negro Times.
NEGRO MOVING PICTURE
In the February number of Cassau motion-picture magazine Eric D. Walrond of the editorial staff of The Negro World gives an interesting account of the Real Motion Picture Company, which produces Negro photoplay by Negro authors and with Negro actors. The Real company has done a great service in raising the Negro screen play from buffoonery to a higher level, and the response of the public has been very encouraging. The company should go on to greater success.
To insure that success, however, we must have a Negro literature to support it. It is a well-known fact that practically all the best motion pictures are based upon novels which were written without thought of the screen. Only the common run of motion picture stories were written directly for the screen and none of them has the vitality of a book. Therefore the screen must depend on novelists instead of scenario writers.
For the death of Negro literature there is a good reason. On the whole we are not a reading people, though we have improved in the last twenty years. Our reading public is not welded together by any great literary publication. If we had such a magazine able and willing to pay its contributors, we should soon have a worthy body of literature. It is somehow hard to convince our present Journalists that it pays to use fiction and that story-writing is hard work and should be paid for. Our Negro literary talent is languishing for lack of a medium and whoever owes or finances one will have done our race a signal service. Negro Times
THE BRITISH WILL HANG 172 HINDOOS
The British Government in ruling the black people of Africa and the olive colored people of India appears to believe firmly in the Christian maxim that "the blood of the martyr is the seed of the church" and that the more martyr they make to their tyrannous rule the more blood will grow out of the seed to harass therants. That it is the old soning of dragon teeth over.
News comes from India that the British at Lucknow have pronounced the death sentence upon 172 Indians, accused of murder and arson, as a result of the non-commissioner rioting at Chauri-Chauri last February. The original number of the accused was 228, but 47 were acquitted, two received two-year sentences and seven died while awaiting trial. They were accused of killing seventeen police
There are estimated to be some 400,000,000 East Indians under British rule in India. They are in a ferment of discontent with the Gandhi non-co-operationists strongly enforced by the other organization groups of the Empire, who, through their All India Caliphate Congress have just placed themselves on record as ready to revolt against the British Government if it goes too far in its policy against the Moslem Turks.
Scan the political seavens carefully and it will readily be seen that the British Empire is in a raging storm and may be going the way of the Spanish after Samson at Santiago and Dawey in Manila Harbor destroyed Spanish naval strength. Those who sow to the winds reap the whirlwild.

people. He touched on the object of our enemy in attempting to destroy the movement by saying that it is a radical movement and trying to discredit our leader by saying that he is a fraud. He urged the members to be stable minded and stand by the movement that we shall be able to exude the intent of our foes. All who witnessed the program were well pleased. I want to say to all members of the L A I A to stand firm. Remember unity there is strength, together we stand, divided we fall.
Some call our leader an old dreamer because he read that Africa was for the African home and abroad. Even from the beginning of the world pure religion has been the interpretation of dreams. No more notorious or better known example of this to be found than in the Bible, where most frequently told spake his message to men in a dream. And God came to Laban the Syrian, in a dream of the night and said unto him, Take heed that this speak to you to teach other good or bad. We all remember the dreams of Joseph which being interpreted meant that he the youngest Son was to rule over his father and his brother and over the whole land of Egypt and even though his brothers sought to stay him the dream came true. And in the count of Egypt it was Joseph himself who interpreted the dreams of Pharaoh and by the dreams of that monarch was able to tell the time of great famine in Egypt and to prepare against it and go to save God's chosen people. What was true at the time of Genesis is true today for truth is vital and must prevail. All through the history of the world you will see that dreams have proved a mighty in

Swamp-Root a Fine Medicine
Thousands upon their ends of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prey to be nothing but kidney trouble in the result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.

Your health makes you nervous, irritable and may be dependent, it makes any one so.
But hundreds of women claim that De Kalmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.
Many send for a sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root the great kidney liver and bladder medicine will do for them. By enclosing ten units to Dr Killmer & Co. Binghamton N.Y. you may send for a sample size bottle at Post. You can purchase them in medium and large size bottles at all drug stores.

GREAT MASS MEETING AT LIBERTY HALL U. N. I. A NO. 6 ON JANUARY 1, 1923. NEWPORT NEWS, VA.
Hon. Rev. B. Godfrey president called the meeting to order. The opening ode Wassung Prayer was offered followed by remarks by the president who requested that all visiting division officers report Division No. 20 and of Norfolk with their Legions and Black Trees Nurses in their beautiful costumes with present Mr. H. Sound chairman of the program committee and musical instructor produced a special program. The Norfolk division took part in the program and rendered a special quartet and a tribute to the program gave a life to the council. The night for Duplex is a night for Duplex Norfolk is right long to be remembered. The staff was decorated with the colors of black and green in the paper and picture-scene incident of the world be decorated with the stars and Stars of the Red Black and green with the scripture. Man the World Builder in Peace and in War, putting a worthy sight.
The president made a statement that he said we are on the way to stay Nigro leaders of the post taught us how to die but we the new Nigroes are teaching how to live and we will teach this doctrine of the Red, the Black and the Terrible be told on the hours of Alcatraz in the sega of our protection.
Next Hon. N. A. Haynes, from the source of State introduction Mr. George W. Taylor, president of Norfolk Chapter No. 22, who introduced the listing of people in a masterly way. He said it was of important importance to every member to support the Negro League magazine published by Norfolk Chapter No. 22 by the people and for the people with the motto One God One Ace One Destiny. He appealed to the members of the State of Virginia to support the project. With the best support of every member, the magazine will be a benefit to be held in I. A. and the public in general Mr. R. Johnson second vice president of Chapter No. 22 spoke. He is a live wire and has the I. A. N. A. spirit.
At this point the Hon. S. N. Hume
Commissioner of States addressed the
assembly on "What Does Emmanu-
lation Mean to the Negro." He de-
lared it meant nothing to the Negro as long as we are deprived of our liberty given us by the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution, therefore we are not a free people. Mr Haynes as we all know is an able speaker and we are always glad to have him at our meetings. Mr N. C. Drew, president of Division No. 102 in his general way addressed the

centive to heroic and fortunate action. Much was the dream of Judas Macraeus, of Sylla, of Germannus and the dream of the priestess of Prosperine on the eve of Timoleon's expedition from Corinth to Mycenae. It is a matter of historical record that the city of Carthage was rebuilt by Augustus Caesar in consequence of a dream of his uncle Julius and part of the architectural improvements resulting from this dream are tangible things to be seen amid the ruins of Carthage, to the present day. And such was the dream of Oliver Cromwell that he should use Green shall wave up Africa as a people shot another as one big together having big view, and that is to in whatever capitals could get selfish it would lead us to standing of things operated in order to what the earth proclaims live for each other a to a place not have Where shall I have

Green shall wave upon the hilltop of Africa as an ensign of our protection. We as a people should look upon one another as one big family, all working together having but one purpose in view, and that is to serve one another in whatever capacity we can. If we could get selfishness out of our minds it would lead us to a better understanding of things. So let us all cooperate in order to get the best of what the earth produces. We should live for each other and when life draws to a close not have to ask ourselves, Where shall I spend eternity? but How have I prepared to spend eternity? Your fraternally.
