FRANCE FREES NEGROES IN WEST AFRICA AND TOGOLAND
FRANCE FREWES
FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting:
Cabled information has reached us that the French Mandatory Government has made a step forward in abolishing slavery in West Africa and in Togoland. This comes to us not as a surprise, but as a proof of satisfaction in our having sent our Ambassadors to the League of Nations last September, to lay before that august body our demands for a free and more independent Africa. You will all remember that a couple of months ago the British abolished slavery in their Mandatory Colonies of East Africa, and now comes France doing the same thing in West Africa.
The enemies of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will now be satisfied that it took more than promises on the part of the other races for more than one hundred years to bring about the results of to-day. Were it not for the fact that the Negro Race was represented at the League of Nations by the Ambassadors of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, there would have been no change in the political and economic status of the natives of East and West Africa.
We are satisfied that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has made a valuable contribution to African freedom, and it is only a question of time when not only the natives of East and West Africa will be liberated, but the entire four hundred million members of our race will be emancipated to that higher state of freedom that will make us one people, living under the influence of one great united African Government.
ROME NOT BUILT IN A DAY
Rome was not built in a day, neither will we get all the things that we are working and fighting for in that short period of time. But by a continued application to the program that we have laid out there is absolutely no reason why we will not in time accomplish the realization of our great vision.
Let the race everywhere glory in this new change that is gradually coming over Africa. We in this western world have had our time of slavery, which extended beyond a period of two hundred and fifty years. We can all appreciate therefore the state or condition of our brothers

in the homeland who had to undergo a similar suffering for an unlimited period. In this new freedom that is coming over Africa we are hoping that the race will find an expression that will not be misguided, but will be directed in the one and only course by which we shall ultimately see and enjoy the larger freedom, that of independent control of our own affairs in the land of our fathers.
THE U. N. I. A. DELEGATES
The Universal Negro Improvement Association has more than justified its existence, and the work accomplished by our Delegates to the League of Nations in 1922 will go down in history as the first glorious ambassadorial triumph of Negroes in modern politics. While practically we did not get all the things asked for at the League, we are gradually, through our pressure there, bringing about changes helpful and beneficial to the race everywhere, and especially in Africa.
The Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society of England and the other anti-slavery societies of Europe have worked for more than a century in the effort to bring about the abolition of slavery among the natives in Africa, but were unsuccessful. But the first organized attempt of the Universal Negro Improvement Association toward that end has been crowned with success, so that it is expected that the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and all well-thinking members of the race will give the organization the kind of support, morally and financially, that will be necessary to have our Ambassadors always representing us at the various International Conferences held for the adjustment of racial and political affairs.
The work of the Universal Negro Improve-

ment Association must be kept up and must be subscribed to by each and everyone near and far. We must remember that no one act will satisfy us in the hope that we have taken to ourselves in the improvement of our condition, but by a continuous and unrelenting support to the general program we will ultimately bring about the accomplishment of those things that are needed.
THE NEW EMANCIPATION
It may be the abolition of slavery in East Africa yesterday, and that of a new emancipation in West Africa to-day, and then to-morrow it may be the complete independence of the entire country and the assumption of a universal control by the Negro peoples of the world. So let us not be weary in well doing; let us steel our hearts and minds for the great work that is to be done. Let us go ahead doing it without flinching, without faltering; let us be steadfast in the prosecution of these ideals that we believe to be necessary and helpful to our existence.
The year 1923 should be a year of devoted service on the part of members of the race for the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Let us get ready for the universal drive that is to be made not only for more members, but for the presentation of our case to the other races and nations to whom we have been misrepresented.
All members are asked to remember to pay in immediately the $1 annual assessment tax for the upkeep of the parent body. It must be remembered that no one will be counted as financial and an active member of the association who has not paid up this assessment.
With very best wishes for your success, I have the honor to be
Your obedient servant.

Mr Smith convincingly proved the

BISHOP JOSHUA JONES DISMISSES MISS HALLIE Q. BROWN FROM WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY
(Special Correspondence to Associated Negro Press)
"Staid and orderly old Wilberforce will soon be the center of a storm that will sweep into every corner of this country where African Methodism has got a foothold." Thus spoke an influential member of the University group to your correspondent a few days since. The storm has already started. Just how far it will spread depends on what steps those chiefly involved in its complexities of movement take to assert its temper into a more pacific mood than appears on the surface at this particular time. Bishop lost Jones and Hallee Q Brown are the two big figures standing in the lightlight of the trouble at this time. The Bishop is the denominational head of the university. Miss Brown until recently was one of the chief instructors and probably the most prominent woman associated with the institution.
The first step taken in the present warfare seems to have been the unloading of Lost Stairway. The second step was a proposal that Miss Brown like the directorship of the Vocational work of the school. This move is declared to have been a coup of the Jones crowd, but after Miss Brown declared a willingness to accept the vocational work her former place was declared vacant and she found herself out in the cold outside of the institution. Bishop Jones subsequently gave off all notice that Miss Brown was no longer connected with the university.
This is the straw that is likely to break theamel back. It appears that his highness has been ruling things about him with an iron hand. There is also a rumor that wild
I provide a summary of that good smell that should attach to the college of one of his churchy standing. This is rumor-pulp and simple but into the removal of Mrs. Brown it has grown more audible and more insistent. One fails to find convincing proof of these notions, but the disgusted boy unanimously to the campaign is being waged to rebuke Shotter Hall the administration of which it is asserted is being handled exclusively by the good Bishop. Those who oppose what they are pleased to term one man administration insist that some reputable banking institution should have been designated as deposo for it. Collections and reports to the public of disbursements should come to the public from such a fiscal agent. The Bishop and those most in sympathy with his efforts are said to affirm that "we have confidence in ourselves."
But the chief bone of contention at this moment is the summary dismissal of Halle Brown by Bishop Jones. The breaking to light of these other contentions is on the background of this bigger consideration now growing in size in the minds of the women of the country at large. Miss Brown is the President of the National Association of Colored Women. This organization, it will be remembered, is the largest and most powerful civic and social organization of the race in the United States. If his great body of women get into their heads that their chief executive has been treated unfairly, the university authorities they are in a position to make it truly hot for Bishop Jones despite his commanding position in the great African Methodist Church.
Already, the Ohio Branch of the women's national organization are on the eve of withdrawing their support from old Wilberforce because of the attitude of Bishop Jones toward their national president. The Ohio women are openly declaring that the Bishop has constituted himself the sole custodian of the university monastery. They do not seem to be in a position to establish specific charges in the matter but they are pointing significantly to the plans for the new building as almost continuing proof that bad judgment and old-fashioned ideas have been permitted full way.
Your correspondent missed Alisa Brown because she left these unhappy surroundings to take up the national

work of the National Federation. I learn that she steadily refined to enter into any controversy with the university's executive authorities, of which Bishop Jones appears to be the ruling spirit. But the storm seems to be gathering strength with the passing of each day. Where it will finally end and what the damage will be after it has passed no one can foretell at this time. For some years past I am told here Bishop Jones has been a thern in the side of the African Methodist organization itself. Yet, despite an undercurrent of dissatisfaction with his disposition and official attitudes he holds on it is said here because he is on the trade of a machine that has dominated the organization since the time of the late Bishop Payne's death. I am not in a position to confirm this statement.
But something of trouble is in the air
Hallie Q. Brown seems to be the
increase cause of it. It would be indie-

BISHOP CLAIR SAILS
FOR LIBERIA
Bishop Matthew W. Clair, Formerly Pastor of the Aabury Methodist Episcopal Church, Washington, D.C., Sails for Liberia
Bishop Matthew W. Clair, resident bishop of Liberia for the Methodist Episcopal Church, sailed from New York aboard the steamship West Needle, set off the Hull Line for Monrovia Liberia to resume his duties directing the mission forces of his denomination in that field. With Bishop Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, Bishop Clair was the first of his race to be elected to full rank in the episcopacy of his denomination at the General Conference at Des Moines, Iowa in 1920. For many years, previously he had been recognized as one of the most able leaders in the Church.
In Liberia Bishop Clair has made tours far into the interior through the jungle paths visiting the native chiefs and local kings, all of whom begged him to send teachers and preachers among them. Bishop Clair has been in this country for some months in the interests of his mission field and has spoken many times to audiences of white and colored people upon the problem of spreading Christianity among the black bushmen of Liberia. These people are regarded by travellers and ethnologists as being in the front rank of African natives in natural intelligence and other endowments promising rapid progress toward civilization.
HOWARD'S RELAY TEAM
PREPARES FOR SPRING MEETS
WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 29 — Howard University's Colored Intercollegiate Champion Relay team is gradually getting into condition for the spring meets in which it will participate.
One of the most important events in which the relay team will be entered this year is the Penn Relay games to be held under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania on Franklin Field, April 27 and 28. Howard's relay team, composed of Perry, Craft, Contee and Robinson, won a collegiate championship at these games in April 1921. In 1922, upon being moved up into Class II, Collegiate Championship of America comprised of Boston College, Pittsburgh and a number of other institutions, the team made up of Craft, Wyndon, Contee and Robinson acquired itself creditably by taking 6th place in this faster class in which there were thirteen teams entered.
Howard's relay team this year is expected to be the fastest in the history of the university. Last year's team has reported in full to competition for place is expected to be keen because of the exceptional quality of the new men who are also reporting Among the new men who are out for the squad are H. A. Bridge, who starred on the University of Pittsburgh's freshman team, and the relay team of the Scholastic Club of Pittsburgh last year, and who ran on the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity team which won the inter-fraternity championship of the Panther University. Maco Morris former star of Lincoln University. H O Bright, star anchor man of last year's freshman team George Pendleton of last year's freshman team, Walker of Abury Park High School, New Jersey, a veteran of three years experience, R Brown, of Morgan College, H P. Williams, of Howard, and many others "Humpty" Brown, former captain and star 440-man of Dunlair High School. Washington, D C, is expected to report at the beginning of the spring quarters.
All of last year's veterans have reported to Capt. Bob Craft and Athletic Director L. Watson. The diminutive captain is already showing much of his old-time form, and indications point to a great year on the "dancer" for him. Emmett Wendon, after a splendid season with the football squad, is in fine condition. Former Captain Raymond Center who played halfback on Howard's varsity last fall is already jogging around the cinder path in his well-known form. Leo Robinson, star anchor man of Howard's relay team for two years, and whose great back trench running that brought victory to the Howard relay four as the University of Pennsylvania games in 1921, will always be remembered by those who witnessed the event. Despite the lack of time for training due to his work in the medical school, he is daily seen "biting" the track with the avowed intention of climaxing his athletic career by amusing a record.
T. J. Anderson, Howard's star-weight man and hammer thrower, who was an entrant in the field events at the Penn games last year, is entered again this year. He has been busy practicing with the weights since early fall, and his superb conglition points to a banner year for him.
PEN SKETCHES OF PRESENT-DAY NEGRO NOTABLES
By W. H. A. MOORE
For the Associated Negro Press
Charles c. Gipkin—Acer
We shall show a worthwhile concern in life when we manifest an abiding interest in the drama. We must remember the drama is most concerned in the accountability and the responsibility of life. We must also intensely bear in mind that the burdens and the exaltations of life are universal in extent and eternal in spirit. The academism of Europe has been shaped and held in place by the Greek impulse to attain perfection of form form as an abstraction whether applied to art or to government or to
social conduct Perfection has simple outline, but it is never the truth. Nothing is arbitrarily sound but the Cosmic law, and that only because it creates existence Europe—and that includes America—has affected the outward aspects of perfection, but it has long since come to know that it is a vain affectation and can lead nowhere but to destruction and final elimination. These slight reflections have to do with drama because drama has to do with life. For another brief moment let us turn our thought to a consideration of the interpretation of the drama, and to one who brings rare artistic power and spiritual insight in its visual translations. The Negro life impulse is stressed emotionalism. Charles Colpina acting in Eugene O'Nell's "Emperor Jones" is possessed with a heightened emotionalism, softened if may so term it by an artistic verity of purpose surely accented and beautifully toned. Fear, not as a fitting ephemera but as a fixed and primal emotion of life, is the theme of the play. The Negro Jones is but the dragged figure of its vocal outcry and is purely incidental to the presentation and development of the theme
But Charles Gilpin's acting in the part is specifically Negro, irregularly true, totally resonant and marvelously transfused with that barbaric freshness of spirit that strips us naked of the thin veneerings of civilization and stands us—black and white alike—silhouetted in the startling outlines of a common humanity set against the common sky of life. It! Negro deeply haled within the light of a universal emotion. It is art. Art in its higher exaltations simplifies the complex and thereby brings it the more clearly within the ranges of intelligibility I therefore believe. Charles Gilpin's "Emperor Jones" raises this actor to the very first place of whatever we have to give of honor to those who are doing the bigger things in the name of the race.
I have the privilege to name him among my friends. It is now some twenty years since I came to know him. He was then a great actor. Far beyond any man I have intimately known he revealed to me an intuitive recognition of the spiritual actualities of acting. I remember distinctly his portrayal of an old Negro in one of the Pekin Theatre productions some seventeen years since. It was a notable performance. It stood quite above its setting of a Negro musical comedy and accented a really beautiful intimation of interpretive power and inspirational expression. To his actor associates he was "Charlie" Gilpin. To me he was a realization—one of the gifts of promise that came to me out of the darkness of the past, rich in power and full to the heart with the tonal beauties of the African soul And we communed over the cups together. Ah! there was there much of joy in the meetings for "Charlie" and I What dreams we had! Of he being some day a great actor, and I—I dare not tell you what I dreamed. But they were big moments. Simple childlike but big with a fine impulse of life.
"Some day 'Judge' well strike it!" Some day, 'Charlie', you'll hit it! But, anyhow, there came out of it a fine fellow feeling. And often as the data have mellowed into years I have thought of them, thought of them with the hurt of a hungry heart and dreamed of them in the exaltation of a deep faith in the sincerer verities of life. A friend—a lover of the drama—said to me not long since. "What if Gilpin should prove to be a one-part actor, what then?" "Impossible!" I thundered, "you don't know the man" Edwin Booth's Petruchio revealed to me more clearly the breadth of his artistic powers than did his Hamlet. The character of Petruchio is more variable in its tempers and therefore more exacting in its requirements of interpretation. The great Booth met these exotices with an unnering instinct and therefore with a most convincing measure of artistic inflection. "Emperor Jones" runs the gamut of life's eliciting to life. And it is because Gilpin meets its demands squarely and with artistic truth that we are duly bound to account him a great actor. I am glad to know and to love him.

A Correction - In my nugget of a few days ago I handvertently said that Charles Lenox Reason was a noted engraver. I should have said that he was a breeder of fine horses and the owner of a stock farm. Patrick R. Reason whom I had in mind at the time of writing was a noted engraver and was the designer of a famous medal which was popularized by the Art-Paloo Society. His brother, Charles Lenox Reason, was for many years a leading educator in this City.

Another clergyman, Dr Alex Irvine, who writes a daily article for an evening newspaper in this city, has in answer to a correspondent who asked him to answer the question "Is Nulcule a Sin?" given this reply. "The conventional view is that suicide is cowardice. I do not share that opinion for me personally to give up the right would be II matura" (Note Harmuita) wrote a word used by Jeanne he ex-pired and meant in or missing the mark). What it would be for another I have a right to judge." If suicide isn't cowardice why do suicide suicide? Why are they afraid to face the world, after repeated failures? Missing the work in business love affairs? Be it a charistic trait of a brave man or woman to take his own life simply because he or she has been unresolved in a compiling a certain object?

This will be joyful news of true (a lot of old hardened cunning who ought to be coached to a turn, when they shuffle off and shuffle in).

DR BUTLER ON LAW AND LAWLESSNESS
DR. NICHOLAS MURRAY BUTLER, president of Columbia University, has steadily forged forward during the past quarter of a century until today he is recognized as one of the leaders of American thought. As professor of philosophy of Columbia University he wrote a book dealing with educational themes which attracted attention. Then about fourteen or fifteen years ago he delivered an address before a philosophical congress in France, we believe. Dr. Wm. T. Harris, former U.S. Commissioner of Education, characterized it as the best summary of nineteenth century philosophy which he had seen. Then in an address in England, which was commended by the Outlook and the Independent, he spoke of the Ten Greatest Americans and included Prof. Villard Gibbs, the scientist and mathematician, and Prof Wm. D Whitney, the philologist of Yale University, among the group. Then in June, 1916, at the Republican National Convention in Chicago, Ill., he made a nominating speech which reached the high water mark of thought and eloquence. Dr. Butler, then, may be characterized as an idealist who is endeavoring to harness his steeds of sun to plough in the world's furrows, sometimes successfully and sometimes not.
In his address, "Toward Higher Ground," which we have already referred to, he showed why there was a need for the progressive liberals in the Republican and Democratic parties to form a new party, as powerful politicians and political bosses were using the party names, symbols, history and traditions of the two great parties to perpetuate themselves in power.
Law and Lawlessness
In an address delivered before the Ohio State Bar Association at Columbus, Ohio, on January 26, 1923, on "Law and Lawlessness" Dr. Butler speaks of the growing disregard for law in America and traces it to its psychological roots in lax educational training and discipline. Then he claims that the fact that the Fifteenth Amendment, proclaimed in 1870, and the Eighteenth Amendment, proclaimed in 1919, are unenforced and seemingly unenforceable makes for lawlessness.
Dr. Butler says "When the Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery, and when the Fourteenth Amendment provided for the reduction of the representation in Congress from any State which abridged the right of any citizen to vote, except for participation in rebellion or other crime, the matter might well have rested there. All that was needed was the courage and the public opinion to enforce the Fourteenth Amendment and speedily the several States would have made provision for their own protection by, which the intelligent colored man would have been permitted to vote. General Robert E. Lee himself testified in this spirit before the Reconstruction Committee of the Congress. The Civil War had just ended, however, and passion ran high. Therefore, the Fifteenth Amendment was proposed and ratified, and the right of suffrage was given a national basis and protected by a national guarantee. What has been the result? After a half-century the colored man votes in those States where he voted when the Fifteenth Amendment was passed, but he rarely votes, and certainly does not freely participate, in public life in those States where he did not vote then. Every attempt to enforce the Fourteenth or Fifteenth Amendment has been denounced as a force bill. Oddly enough, it has been so denounced by those very Senators and Representatives who will go to any length to enforce the provisions of the Eighteenth Amendment.
"If the American people stand idly by and see the Fifteenth Amendment unenforced and unenforceable because it runs counter to 'the intelligence and moral sense' of large elements of the population, must they not either move the offending cause from the law or leave off bewailing the lawlessness to which its presence naturally leads? . . . It is a fair question whether, if the Fifteenth Amendment were repealed and the Fourteenth Amendment were enforced, the political and social condition of the colored man in the Southern States would not be vastly improved."
The Two Great War Amendments
In his books, public addresses, management of Columbia University and participation in politics, Dr. Butler shows that he is a philosopher who takes life seriously and endeavors to translate ideas into actualities. Whether one wholly agrees with him or not, he makes a serious attempt to get to the bottom of things. We have not the time or the space to go into a detailed history of the steps which led to the passage of the three war amendments which conferred freedom, citizenship and suffrage upon the former slave. Dr. Sinclair's "The Aftermath of Slavery," Congressman Lynch's "Reconstruction" give a detailed history of that period. The chapter "The Negro in Politics" in the second volume of "The African Abroad" gives a resume.
Dr. Butler raises a very delicate question. What must be done when a law "ruths counter to the intelligence and moral sense of large elements of the population?" But there is a distinction between the Eighteenth and the Fifteenth Amendment. The Eighteenth Amendment is like some of the minor laws of Moses. It forbids people from imbibing certain liquids. But the Fifteenth Amendment is like the Ten Commands and the Sermon on the Mount.
It proclaims a principle of justice and righteousness appliable to men everywhere. It is a necessary corollary to the Declaration of Independence and to Lincoln's Gettysburg address. It does not forbid depriving a man of the ballot because he is rebellious, a criminal or illiterate. But it says that you cannot deprive a man of the ballot because of his race, color, creed or previous condition of servitude. That is, you cannot disfranchise him merely because he is black or is a Jew or Catholic. An educational or property qualification, or both, applied impartially to both races alike in the South is in harmony with the Fifteenth Amendment. But the "grandfather" and "understand-

himself. He listened to them, gave up his dreams of a New York law practice, and buried himself in the South for four years, with indifferent success. Next he came to Washington and tried hard to build up the Negro school system. For ten years he worked like a Trojan. And for what? Only to be turned upon by the people, hooted, jeered, and virtually forced—or at least moved—to give up the job. Now he is doing his best in a little place in West Virginia. Today, with his wonderful dialectic skill and cogent oratory he might be arguing great corporation cases before the highest courts in the land, and we stoutly assert our belief that he would be a much more conspicuous, commanding figure and better able to serve his race than he is now.
ing" clauses of some of the Southern Constitutions endeavor to hold to the letter and evade the spirit of the amendment. We must get to bedrock. We would translate Dr. Butler's phrase "intelligence and moral sense" to "self-interest." This was the problem of the framers of the Constitution of the United States. One section of the country—the Southern section, representing one-third of the country—had special interests—slave-holding interests—to conserve. They desired special privileges. They desired to count their slaves as a basis of representation. And since they have disfranchised the Negro in the Southern States, they still desire to count the Negro who has been disfranchised and who cannot vote as a basis of representation in the Lectoral College and House of Representatives, so that the vote of one white man in Alabama or Missapp counts as much as the votes of two blacks in Massachusetts and New York.
Why should we, the Negro race, be expected to do what no other race has done? How many of the great figures in American life today are driven primarily by the idea of serving the white race? That race has been served and helped by them because they are serving and heaping themselves, and the benefit to their race is incidental. Save for those who are born missionaries, the inner driving force of every successful man is personal ambition exerted in the manner and direct on most conn. to his nature. It is a strange logic which holds that a Harry O. Lamar should have cast away his brush, a Dunbar his pen, a Roland Hayes his voice and a James Reese Europe his baton, to bury his talents to work he was totally unfitted for. If Negro college graduates are now individualists they have become so from observing the bitter experience of their predecessors and learning that a man best serves his people by doing God's God made him for.—The Negro Daily Times
In the Fourteenth Amendment it had been enacted and the South's representatives in the Electoral College and House of Representatives had been cut down the South would probably have permitted intelligent coloured men to vote. But the North has granted as many concessions to the South during the part of war that it probably would not have enforced the Fourteenth Amendment to see the North have been passed. And if the Fifteenth Amendment were rejected the Fourteenth would probably remain unenforceable.
The Fifteenth Amendment represents a principle of governent ent of justice and righteousness. The problem is to educate the people of the South up to it. The Negro is educating his children, buying houses and fighting in the wars waged by his country, and day by day in every way fitting himself for the duties of citizenship. If the Fifteenth Amendment remains on the statute books as a law of the land, as a great principle of justice and righteousness, the South will in time be educated up to it. Under no circumstances ought universal ethical principle be abandoned because it is at variance with the self interest of a minority of the total population of the United States.
DR. DU BOIS' DILEMMA
I said that Homer sometimes nods and that the wisest and best of men sometimes make mistakes. Well, our good friend, Dr Du Bois, with the poet in his nature stronger than the scientist, following his usual custom of getting information second hand and sometimes third hand and fourth hand, erred somewhat in the New Year issue of the Crisis regarding two very distinguished men
THE APPRAISERS OF THE U. N. I. A.
W hear so much about the critics of the U N I A that the reader may wonder why we use the words "The Appraisers of the U N I A" A critic is commonly supposed to be one who looks at an object for the purpose of finding and detecting as many defects as possible. That is not the ideal function of criticism. But an appraiser of a store or business estimates the value of the store and stock. the bank balance and the debts and mortgages and strikes a balance.
Dr Du Bois opens his editorial under the caption "Democrats" by saying, "Once we hoped an offer of our support would induce the Democratic party (a) to curb the Bourbon South, (b) to work for the human uplift of the black and lowly
"We thought Wilson wanted to when he wrote to the late Bishop Walters, promising us 'Justice and not mere grudging justice' After election he called the Bishop to him 'Er—Bishop, what is this I hear about some letter I wrote you during the campaign? I don't seem to recollect its terms.'
Dr. W E B Du Bois in the current issue of the Century Magazine, and Mr Eric D. Walrond in the current issue of Current History attempt an appraisement of the U N I A Dr Du Bois' appraisement is inclined to be critical and cynical, while Mr Walrond's is inclined to be appreciative and sympathetic
"I have it right here—right here," answered the Bishop proudly.
"Yes-yes" hummed the great war President as he read it and carefully tucked it away in his pocket
Both err in characterizing the so-called Garvey movement as a "Back to Africa" movement. The "Back to Africa" idea is only one of the three big ideas which enabled the U N I A to sweep over the world like a tidal wave. The Black Star Line idea, the redemption of Africa idea and the confraternity idea were the three big ideas.
"The Bishop never saw the letter again."
We have always admitted that Dr. Du Bois has the making of a great novelist and that sections of "Souls of Black Folk" and "Darkwater" indicate that he has a genius for telling a story. We do not know whether he could produce masterpieces if he would try his hand turning out long novels. But there is no greater short story writer in the country today than Dr. Du Bois.
From the August convention of 1921 to the August convention of 1922 was the time when the commercial development of Liberia, the procuring of a ship to transport Negroes to Africa and the African empire idea was stressed. Four times as many brilliant speakers toured America, the West Indies and Panama than toured those places between the summer of 1920 to the summer of 1921, when the Black Star Line as a venture in the commercial world was the theme and talk of the hour. The speakers who pleaded for the Universal Construction Loan received bigger headlines and much more publicity than the speakers who made the Black Star Line a realized possibility. Their program involved less risks. And yet, with a greater number of speakers and with the increased publicity and with less risks involved, the champions of the "Back to Africa" idea only raised one-fourth of the amount of money in twelve months as the promoters of the Black Star Line did
Now this story related about a conversation between a former President of the United States and a late colored Bishop, regarding a much-discussed and much-advertised letter, is admirable and superb as a story per se. It is short and sweet. It gives the imagination something to feed on. It moves as swiftly and as lightly to the chimax as a tiger stalking a prey. It vividly contrasts the wary, wily, watchful and self-possessed former President and the good colored Bishop as frank and unsophisticated as a school boy, who, flattered by the President's interest, proudly produced the letter, on which the President, upon receiving and reading, transferred to his own pocket. A Victor Hugo, a Dumas or a Zola or a Balzac or any of the reigning French novelists could not have told the story more cleverly. We fancy that Dr. Du Bois was proud of that little bit of writing.
This indicates that it was the voyages of the Yarmouth to Panama and the West Indies, rather than the "Back to Africa" ideal which made Marcus Garvey famous and put the U.N.L.A. on the map. The objector will say that the colored peoples of the Western world had more money in the bank and were making bigger wages in the year 1920-21 than in the year 1921-22. Quite true, but there were more speakers in the field in 1921-22 than in the preceding year, and they addressed more large, well advertised meetings and
Mrs. Lelia Walters' Letter
But Mrs. Lelia Walters, the widow of the distinguished Bishop, a lady of remarkable intelligence and nobility of character, steps upon the stage and introduces a new element in the drama. In a terse and trenchant letter to Dr. Du Bois she characterizes his story as fiction, pure and simple, as something that was woven whole cloth out of someone's imagination and not as actual history. Translated in plain Anglo-Saxon, the episode that the learned editor relates was good as a story, but seems to be a lie, pure and simple, what some might term an unmitigated prevarication.
The fact that the Yarmouth twice made two return trips to Cuba, Panama and the West Indies with colored captain and crew and one trip with white captain and colored crew thrilled the black peoples of the world as no event has since Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. The news of the first journey of the Yarmouth under Negro captain and crew penetrated to the interior of Africa. It liberated the imaginations of the colored people who are classified as Negroes. It opened new vistas of the Negro's entrance as a potent factor into the commercial world. The new industrial program that the sailing of the Yarmouth under Negro captain and crew opened up caused a spiritual awake using a tone black folk and made possible the great convention of 1921, with its imposing services in Liberty Hall, its spectacular parades and vast press meetings in Madison Square Garden.
Mrs. Walters' letter to Dr. Du Bois regarding the matter reads as follows
Dr. W E B Du Bois.
Editor of Crisis.
New York City
My Dear Dr. Du Bois.
In the current issue of the Crisis there appears an article from your pen that purports to say that former President Wilson filched to the late Bishop Walters the letter which the colored people were pleased to term "That Famous Letter of Justice."
THE U. N. I. A. AS A BELIGION
But after the Black Star Line, the U. N. I. A. AS A RELIGIOUS and African Colonization Plan did not allow the promoters after the African Nation as a dim, far-off hope, the U. N. I. A. the majority of the members felt that people could be formed and held respect inculcated, great good work.
In reference to this publication I wish to say that no such incident ever occurred.
A few months ago an officer of the Anti-Lynching Crusaders rehearsed this same story to me, saying that she intended to use it as the basis of an article that would subsequently appear in the Crisis
That is why one member w
from Panama in December, 1919. 1919
your movement as a religion and look upon the egro World a Bible
Just as a religion teaches the believer that he is so nobody and counts
for something in the sight of the Almighty, so the U N I A taught the
black man to feel that he was somebody, that he was created in the
image of God and can carve out his destiny and write his name on the
pages of the world's history the same as other men
At this time I stated that there was not a scintilla of truth in the statement, and if it were published I could have none other recourse than to brand it as a wanton and malicious falsehood.
I am pained and surprised to know that the, Crisis without investigation or any attempt at verification—on mere unsupported rumor, would publish an article defaming the living and belittling the dead—a write-up which the Hon. Mr. Joseph P Tumulty, who was secretary to former President Wilson at the time, characterizes as a deliberate fabrication.
The inspiration impulses that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has quickened in the souls of black folk will grow and develop and live on when those who nominated the work have an awed the last call and their souls have come back to the God who created them. Psychic impulses, spiritual forces cannot be measured and estimated in terms of dollars and cents because mind and transient matter, and matter is valuable only as a vehicle of mind
Let us, Dr. Du Bois, fight our battle with none other than the invincible weapon of truth.
If this letter is not convincing I would beg to suggest that you interrogate Mr. Wilson as to the truthfulness or falsity of your accusation.
Respectfully yours.
NEGRO COLLEGE INDIVIDUALISTS
THE NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS in a recent editorial on the Bruce-Lowell incident draws an unwarranted inference.
Mrs. Walters, the wife of the Bishop, one of the two parties in the interview, characterizes the Crisis' story as "A wanton and malicious falsehood." Mr. Joseph P. Tumulty, former secretary to former President Wilson, the other of the two parties to the interview, characterizes the Crisis' story as "A deliberate fabrication." The wife of the late Bishop and the former secretary of the former President both emphatically deny the Crisis' story. What should Dr. Du Bois do, who seems caught on the horns of a dilemma?
It charges our Negro college graduates with being individualists rather than Negro and with trying to get away from their race when the race needs their unstinted service. That statement is more easily made than proved; in fact, it is not provable. The exact opposite is true. For fifty years our graduates from Harvard and other colleges have gone straight into the backwoods, filled with the idea of serving their people, teaching in poor, half-equipped schools that paid them hardly enough to keep body and soul together. A graduate might be intended by nature for a business man, a lawyer, a statesman, an artist, an author; but no, he must strangle his talent, the best thing in him, and go South to try to help his people. Such has always been the ideal of the Negro university man. And even if he remained in the North it was because of some great business, political or artistic scheme for the betterment of his race's condition.
He must either go to a higher authority than the wife of the Bishop and the secretary of the former President and say that he received the story in person directly from the lips of Bishop Walters or former President Wilson, or else he must retract his story, saying that he meant it in good faith and did not intend to traduce the memory of Bishop Walters or injure the reputation of former President Wilson, but only mistook kitchen gossip and vague, floating rumors for the pure and unadulterated truth.
We can readily understand how a literary artist and a prose poet in his desire to produce dramatic effect could indulge in the luxury of rhetorical exaggeration. But it is always advisable for a scholar with a reputation to investigate and verify his statements from the parties or families involved instead of scattering broadcast to the four quarters of the globe vague, floating rumors which have not the basis of truth.
The case of Roscoe Conkling Bruce, cited by the Amsterdam News, illustrates exactly what we have said. In 1902 Roscoe Conkling Bruce, Harvard class orator, prize debater and Phil Beta Kappa member, especially cut out for a lawyer, wished to take up law as his profession. But older people beset him with talk of serving his people rather than
Alumni Bulletin Takes Up Bruce Matter—Calls Denial of a Privilege to Negro a "Reversal"—Declares Name of Shaw Habcome Symbol
Harvard's Alumni Bulletin, in an editorial last Friday on "The Colored Student and the Freshman Dormitories," expresses the view that Harvard's policy on this point is not a closed question. It says in part
"The personal form in which the question now arises and the correspondence between President Lowell and Roscoe Conkling Bruce, '02, have given a dramatic turn to the issue. Unobligatedly also the recent discussions of racial discrimination have sharpened public interest in the Harvard attitude on any racial problem. Yet it is rather, we suspect, the tradition of the university on this particular question which gives to public comment its serious tone and makes it so widespread.
"For Harvard to deny to colored men a privilege it accords to whites appears inevitably as a reversal of policy if not as positive disloyalty to a principle for which the university has hitherto taken an open and unshaken stand.
This question, we assume, is not closed, for President Lowell has stated the existing practice, with the reasons which led to its adoption, rather than the basis for a permanent policy. Before that ultimate settlement by the faculty and the governing boards which is to be anticipated in the ordinary course of university procedure, we expect further expression of alumni opinion on this matter.
"Harvard played a conspicuous part in the Civil War, as she did in the World War. In the one case as well as in the other she identified herself with a cause and sealed her devotion with the blood of her sons. The human principles on which these wars were fought and won have been embodied in the Harvard tradition; they have become a part of that ideal Harvard which is the object of Harvard loyalty.
"The name of Robert Gould Shaw, who died at the head of his colored troops before Fort Wagner and was buried there with them, has become a symbol which cannot be disowned without the loss of something very substantial from the life of the larger Harvard community. We do not believe that any Harvard man, be he Northerner or Southerner, would for a moment wish to disown it."

CROSS NURSES' CHILD
WELFARE DEPARTMENT
By CLARA MORGAN, R. N.
(Questions of general interest on the care and feeding of infants and children will be answered in this column. Address Child Welfare Department, Nogro World, 56 West 185th street, New York, N. Y.)
Question: My little boy. 3½ years, weighs 28 pounds. I understand he is under weight, and I have tried for months, doing all I have been advised at the nutrition clinic, with no result.—Mrs. R. G.
Answer: Your little boy is five pounds under weight. If you have been giving him a sufficient amount of the right kind of food, and teaching him good food habits—eating slowly, chewing food properly, eating regularly and not between meals, seeing that he gets enough rest and sleep, that his teeth are in good order and that he has no enlarged tonsils or adenoids, if you have given attention to the above common causes of continuous underweight in children, then you ought to have your child thoroughly examined by a competent physician to determine the cause of his being continually underweight. Again it may be constitutional a condition inherited from delicate parents.

Ridiculating the action of Imperial Giant Clarke of the Ku Klux Klan in formally opening the ranks of the Klan to Catholics. Columbia, the magazine of the Knights of Columbus, will state in its forthcoming issue:
"The spectacle of the Ku Klux Klan opening the klaven doors (if they have doors) to admit Catholics is almost as touching as the picture of a burglar club condescending to heatwarm membership on the burglar's victims. It has been definitely proved by news papers exposing the Klan that the Klan has exploited religious prejudice especially prejudice against Catholics. The Klan gloats over the success of the anti-Catholic fight in Oregon—but in time it will discover it is the gloating of the idiot who detaches his nose to epilepsy his face.
"Of course the average Catholic has too much of a sense of humor to consider the Klan's new noisy as anything but a by-product of the kotasan-katkeoining scheme which is the essence of Kluxism. Apart from the klownishness of the Klan, its reputed practice and advocacy of anarchy would make it morally impossible for any Catholic to join it."

people of Africa, with a constituency thoroughly Christian, with leaders and pastors of that, own race and color, supporting and administering their own church in affiliation with the parent church in this country as a part of a federation of Methodism.
Indian Leaders for Indian Church
This tendency is now being studied in all fields in which the Board of Foreign Mission e of the Methodist Episcopal Church is operating. It is regarded as a natural outgrowth of the world war and the accepted ideal of self-determination According to Bishop Fred B. Fisher, resident bishop of Calcutta, India, recently in this country, the machinery of the Methodist Episcopal Church is so constructed that, without any violent readjustment, it may be expanded into a federation of self-supporting, self-administering Methodist churches around the world in a kind of Christian League of Nations Bishop Fisher, who is the youngest bishop of his denomination and recognised as one of its most eloquent orators and far-sighted statesmen, was instrumental in the adjustment of Methodism in India to meet the growing spirit of independence and nationalism which has evolved there in the past three years. He was quick to note upon his return to India in 1830 as a newly elected bishop the restlessness among Indian leaders of the church there, due to their desire for greater responsibility and self-expression.
Methodiste Give Indian Leaders
Chance
Through him a man of full Indian book, a consecrated Christian and the son of a high-caste Brahman, was made president of Lucknow Christian College, another was put at the head of Collins Institute, Calcutta, others were made district superintendents, and all possible leadership given into their hands. White missionaries from this country are still retained on the faculty of Lucknow Christian College and many more are doing local missionary work under Indian district superintendents. According to Bishop Fisher, this adjustment is new conditions and new progress there has evoked wides, read approval among the Indian people and even the British government itself. Bishop Fisher is a friend of Tagore, Gandhi and many other independence agitators, and has been entertained by the Viceroy, Lord Reading, at 3:11 the summer capital. He was recently elected a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, London, because of an expedition of exploration made by him in Thibet, from which he bought much valuable scientific data. He tells also of the tribute from Lord Reading to Methodist missionaries in India, who are credited with founding the liberal system of education now being evolved in India.
Building African Church for Africans In Africa the missionary work of the Methodist Episcopal Church has been pursued along much the same lines, according to officials of the board Although India and China are the most populous mission fields and have received the largest outlay because of the transition stages through which both peoples are still working, the development of Africa as an important and growing opportunity for spreading Christianity has been emphasized.
For the past two decades and move our mission work in Africa has been going through the slow early stages of development in the fundamentals of civilization in isolated parts of the great bush country, said Mr. Donohugh before sailing. "Our veterans there can remember when to see a black man wearing a single garment other than the native loin cloth in their local clothes was unusual, whereas, today, in many places scattered throughout the continent, there are whole Christian villages with all the essentials of civilization. We have had to educate native preachers and teachers, establish schools, primary and secondary, with many types of vocational training to enable Christian folk to earn a decent livelihood. It is the ultimate purpose of this board to establish an extensive training school and industrial farm for instruction of Christian youth in Africa at every mis on station now in existence. However, this is a matter of time and tremendous expense under the many handicaps of distance and location. But the fine results in human progress and devotion shown by many of the black folk in Africa when given an opportunity to improve their condition, are now beginning to appear, and Africa is coming for: did to be in time one of the great missionary fields of the church, where the destiny of a numerous and promising race may be

moulded along Christian line-"
Mr. Donohugh will visit Monrovia and the hinterland of Liberia, where the native chiefs are begging for teachers and preachers of Bishop Matthew I. Clair, the resident Methodist bishop. He will go to O White Plains, where an industrial farm is in progress of establishment for mission operation, and inspect the college of West Africa, a Methodist institution at Monrovia. Also he will visit Nana Kru, where Walter B. Williams, Liberia's "Little Giant," has one of the thriving mission establishments of the West Coast. The Kru people are known to be among the most virile and intelligent in those parts and Christianity has spread among them in proportionate rapidity.
Loanda and the hinterland of Angola or Portuguese West Africa will also be visited by Mr Donohugh; also the Transvaal and Johannesburg, where Methodist missionaries and teachers are maintained to work among the native miners in their compounds. Later Mr. Donohugh will tour Rhodesia, naving for his headquarters the famous mission station of Old Umtail, the strongest Methodist mission establishment in Africa, with a hundred outlying stations, chapels, schools and demonstration gardens in addition to the large educational and industrial establishment at the home base.
In the Congo Belge Mr. Donohoug will inspect the mission work at Elizabethville, Kambova, and journey by caravan into the depths of the bush for days and weeks, visiting Kobongo, the capital town of the Luba people, and Mushumba-wa-Mwata-Yamvo, capital of the powerful Alunda folk. At both places, due to the friendship of the paramount chiefs, the Methodists have thriving mission stations with Christian villages surrounding the stations.
Mr. Donohoug will be absent from this country about a year on his tour of Africa, and upon his return will report to the Board of Foreign Missions at length upon his findings. This journey of the Secretary for Africa is regarded as indicating the growing importance of Africa as a mission field and to presage more intensive cultivation of it by the Methodists in educational, evangelistic and medical lines in the years to come.
SUBJECT: HOW TO BEGIN THE SPIRITUAL LIFE
Text: Rom. 12.1.2. "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And he not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of the mind, that we may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."
In this text, through the Apostle Paul, God is calling His church to consecration.
It should be noticed that these words of the apostle are not addressed to the unbelieving world, but to those whom he recognized as brethren.
Brethren, too, who had something holy and acceptable unto God to offer in sacrifice; for only those who are justified by faith in ransom blood of Jesus are rocked of God as holy and acceptable.
Let us look through this text, take it apart, so to speak; that we may get a deeper spiritual into this glorious message. And we should let each word be seasoned down in our hearts by the Holy Spirit, and our souls will be lifted to God; then we shall have a fountain of love springing up to an everlasting joy.
"Present your bodies a living sacrifice holy (as a ransomed justified) and therefore acceptable unto God, which is reasonable service."
And when, in obedience to this call, we fully consecrate our justified humanity to God, a living sacrifice, side by side with that of Jesus, it is at once accepted of God. In that very act the spiritual life begins.
Such find themselves at once thinking and acting as the new mind prompts, even to the crucifixion of the human desires.
Previously we might enjoy anything that was not actually sinful, for the world all its good things was made for man's enjoyment. The only difficulty being to subdue the sinful habit. But the consecrated, the transformed, in addition in effort to subdue sin, must sacrifice the present good things and devote all their energies to the service of God. And those faithful in service in sacrifice will indeed realize daily that this world is not their resting place, and that here they have no continuing city, for they have a building of God, a building not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 Cor 5-1.
In John 14:2-3, Jesus said, "In My Father's house are many mansions, if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
"And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto Myself, that where I am, there we may be also."

SAFE, QUICK STRAIGHT
CHEMIST NOW AVAILABLE
Wavy Hair in 3 Minutes Now Possible for ANYBODY to Have Beautiful Soft Wavy Hair
Greatest Scientific Discovery of the Decade is Belief of Many
WHY NOT BE BEAUTIFUL AS NATURE INTENDED YOU TO BE? A NEW, SAFE, QUICK STRAIGHTENER DISCOVERED BY MODERN CHEMIST NOW AVAILABLE TO THE RACE
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 man and women who glided easily through life, admired by everyone on account of their handsome hair and neat appearance. Perhaps some such attractive women have taken to the care of your girl or your man while you stood helpless to prevent. Or perhaps the good looks and snappy appearance of some follow 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 red 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

Though the acceptance of the heavenly call and our consecration in obedience to it be decided at one particular moment, the bringing of every thought into harmony with the mind of God is gradual work; it is a gradual bending heavenward of all that which natural bends earthward.
In the second verse of this chapter the apostle terms this process a transforming work, saying: "Be not conformed to this world, but be yo transformed."
It is commonly believed that when one is converted or turned from sin to righteousness and from unbelief and opposition to God and reliance upon Him; that is the transforming which Paul meant.
Truly, that is a great change, but not the transforming that Paul here refers.
That is a change of character; but Paul refers to a change of nature promised to believers during the Gospel age on certain conditions, and he was urging believers to fulfil those conditions. A. W. CARRINGTON, Evangelist. 32 West 129th St., New York City.

THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.I.A. DIVISIONS
TURNING THE IMPOSSIBILITY INTO POSSIBILITY
By E. B. GRANT
President of Hamilton, Bermuda, Division of the U. N. I. A.
It is said, and believed, that the Negro never will be able to rise and take his place as a man among the peoples of the world. Its refutation of this most debasing doctrine there is at least one man whose efforts to free himself from the iron chains that so tightly bind his race are truly wonderful. This man is Marcus Garvey, and the world is at a loss to learn how he managed to escape the oppression of doubts and fears that enslaves the mass of Negroes
Influences That Cannot Be Stopped
What a tremendous influence the Universal Negro Improvement Association, under the guidance of God and the leadership of Marcus Garvey exerted to break the chains forged upon the Negro race' Negroes are, of course, not begging to have removed the hard-cuffs placed upon them by their oppressors for no chin is strong enough to destroy the influence of the U.N.A. under the leadership of Marcus Garvey with Jesus Christ to guide the way as a polar of fire by night and a cloud by day. Even if Marcus Garvey is imprisoned or put to death, his work will go on, for it is a symbol of justice and truth. Trying to end the influence exerted by the U.N.A. by arresting Garvey is like trying to climb up every stream that flows into the sea to prevent tides from blossoming in the spring.
The Greatest Thing in the World
To the popular view there is a remarkable contrast between the old Negro in the now. But the spirit of Garvey and other leaders of the new Negro, acting through the Universal Negro Improvement Association is still a vital force in shaping the world.
The Mistaken Idea
We are very trade in our measurements. We are apt to measure or estimate to the importance of a thing by the amount of money, makes, Japan makes no money. Nothing was heard of the Japanese until the Russo-Japanese War. So it will be with the U.N.A. in Africa it will change the destiny of the world.
Making the Future
It ought to be the concern of everyone to be sure the efforts of true life are linked up with the forces that are making the future. Are you linked up with an effort an institution, a movement which is deceived to go on and on? There is real satisfaction in working to build up the N I A I an organization which is bringing about better conditions for the N I A I all over the world. One of it, most noteworthy, is accomplishments of the N I A I was the changing of an important into a possible under the guidance of Marcus Garvey. He was involved with the chains of fear. He had his desire of one thing. He could have deserved the right to escape and compelled, he could make pleaser for a movement whose object was liberty and freedom. He chose to do the latter. By constant hammering his efforts were crowned with success. Much of what we today consider to be an impossible could be changed into a possibility if we look at them through the eyes of Marcus Garvey.
Doing the Impossible
When Germain was asking the world General Koch thought victory for France an impossibility. General Joffre at the Marne said. The hour has come to advance at all costs and to die where you stand rather than to give war. My right has been rolled up my left has been driven back my center has been ammended. I have ordered an advance." Marshall Haig said. There is no choice but to fight it out. Every position must be held to the last man. With our backs to the wall we must fight it out to the end for the safety of our homes and the freedom of mankind.
If these be the white man's resolutions, what of the Negro' Cheer up! Let us take courage' God is no respecter of person We have gone through hard times Eve yone of us has had a heavy burden to bear—anxiety mourning, grief and tribulation on but the greater burdens has fallen on the shoulders of Marcus Garvey Upon him we centered our confidence, and permitted him to bear the sorrows of the entire Negro people of the world We have often taken false paths, expecting victory in a day. But the Lord through the hard school of experience, showed us our errors and pointed out the paths we should take. The world, however, is not on the right track. The Lord Jesus wishes the peoples of the earth to dwell in peace for the angels have said it. But peace on earth can come only when the people strive to do what is right, good and just.
The U. N. I. A.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association is the only movement in the world attempting to better the condition of all Negroes everywhere. We contemplate with deep interest an ancient river. No one ever looked upon the Mississippi River. for the first time without emotion, or upon a venerable elm or oak, that has stood while the winds of many winters have howled through its branches, while other trees that grew beside it have long since withered and died. So with an ancient castle, or monument or work of art. Whatever stands alone, living while

others died, excites our admiration. Therefore the U N I A deserves additional interest from the many attempts that have been made to destroy it. No monument has weathered such opposition as experienced by the U N I A. It has survived every attack, however, which power, talent and eloquence have made upon it. Now we and we alone should feel an interest in anything that has survived repeated attempts to destroy it. The remnant of an army that has survived a battle and that has successfully resisted great numbers in the conflicts of war, the tree that has stood firm when all others in its neighborhood have been prostrated, the ancient taste that has sustained many a age and still remains impregnable, the solid rock that has been washed by floods for centuries and that has not been swept away—all excite a deep interest. We love to contemplate these and we should deem ourselves destitute of all right feeling if we should pass them by without attention.
But what of the Universal Negro Improvement Association? It has survived up to now all conflicts that have come down to us, notwithstanding all the efforts that have been made to destroy it. And while the stream of time has rolled on and hundreds of other movements have been engulfed, the U.N.A has been triumphant up to the present. Its past history proves that it is deceived to go forward to the end of time floating upon the wings of justice and righteousness.
If God be for us, who can be against us?
JUVENILE MEMBER OF SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, DIVISION PASSES AWAY
JUVENILE MEMBER OF SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, DIVISION PASSES AWAY
January 16 1923
The time has come when the angelic call to one so young and considerate of the feelings of other children that he was never known to say an unkind world to mother child, either in the public school room or in the juvenile classes of the K. N. L. A. William Joshua Wilson, the only son of Mrs Mary Wilson Costello, whom we lovingly term the mother of Division so as it was in her home the charter members met for three months before the charter was unveiled.
The death of her son was audden and unexpected. Taking a severe cold on Saturday, it developed so rapidly that he was only sick five days when the end came. He loved his mother so clearly. It is hard on her to realize he has gone before her to a land brighter and fairer, where is He who said, 'Suffer little children to come unto Mr. for of such is the kingdom of heaven.'
The funeral took place from Liberty Hall December 24, 1922 and was well attended by members and friends of his mother. All officers and members loved little Billy as his playmates loved to call him, and he will live in our memorial.

BROTHER BRANNER, MEMBER OF SEATTLE, WASH. DIVISION, PASSES AWAY
January 16, 1253
The hour has come and the clock has struck when another of our beloved brothers has been called to sleep in that eternal sleep from which no man returns in the flesh.
Brother Harrison Branner departed this life at the King County Hospital on the morning of November 3, 1922, at 4:50 o'clock. The body was brought to Liberty Hall from the undertaking parchors of Johnson & Blackwell trellors for the funeral ceremonies on the Ninth and by his personal request the ceremonies were conducted by the president, using throughout the U. N. L. A ritual for the burial of the dead At the door of Liberty Hall, as the basket was about to be returned to the hearse, the last rites for the dead was read. As the body was to be treated there was no other ceremony. Brother Branner was one of the first to join the U. N. L. A. after the unveiling of our charter April 5, 1920, and many friends outside the membership as well as within.
Blessed be his name in Division 50

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1923
ECHOES FROM WHEELING, W. V., DIVISION NO. 511
BY WILFRED F SHELLMAN, Lawyer
and Vice-President of Baid Division
Editor of the NEGro World—Please
allow me space in your paper for a few
comments on the most excellent work
that is now being done by the Wheeling
Division of the Universal Negro
Improvement Association and African
Communities League. So far as my
information goes, the work of the
Wheeling; Division has not been given
to the public through the medium of
the press. For this reason, if no other,
I have taken this opportunity to pro-
claim aloud just what we are doing and
what we hope to accomplish in the
future our division is small, but
are proud of the work that we already
been accomplished in the face of so
many obstacles. We are all 300 per-
cent. Universal Negro Improvement
Association and African Communities
League. We have no coward members
in our band. Every member stands in
battle array for the things for which
our indefatigable leader Marcus Garvey
contends. We have been to make
the people of Northern West Virginia
sit up and take notice of the fact that
we are here and that we are here to stay.
We wish to thank the parent body and through it our President General for sending us such a splendid Christmas present in the person of Hon. Rudolph E. Smith Mr. Smith was with us for several days and may say also that the whole city of Wheeling and the inhabitants thereof know that a high official of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League was in town" Mr. Smith took the time and pleasure in setting forth in unmistakable language the objects and purposes of our organization. His manners were gracious, his gestures were characteristic of his dignified position and his language was perhaps more beautiful than Wheeling had ever before heard flow from mortal tongue. So you can see that we have had and still are having many things of which we are doubly proud.
The Business Association of Northern West Virginia
The business association of the Universal Negro Improvement Association of Northern West Virginia convened at Wheeling January 6, 1923. We made special efforts on this occasion to impress the public by having a grand parade made up of representatives and delegates from fifteen or more divisions. All necessary precautions were taken to avoid friction and in the main to let the public know that the Red, Black and Green flag of our organization still flutters in the mountain breeze of Northern West Virginia. The city rendered us all necessary protection. The line of march was from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad station to our place of meeting at the Ried Hotel, 4138 Watera street. We marched through the business sections of the city by way of Market street to Eleventh street, thence west on Eleventh street to Main, then across Main street by way of the Pennsylvania Railroad station, thence south from said station on Watera street to the Ried Hotel.
The Legion under the command of Captain James Sims of the Wheeling division assisted by Lieutenant Walter Hodge made a very imposing march. The grand marshal of the day was Trustee J. A McKoy. The most impressive scene was that of the Black Cross Nurses, under the leadership of Mrs Eileen Steper and Mrs E. Allen. Many of the inhabitants of our city had never seen Negro nurses in such aplender before, especially when they noted that these persons had not the red cross, but on the contrary a black cross.
The officers of the business association are as follows: Prof L. R Jordan, A B, president, Clarkburg, Rev A. Nole, Clarkburg, vice-president, Lady S B Keith, Ida May, secretaries, L W Dodson, Clarkburg, executive secretary. An soon as the members had assembled at the Reed Hotel the president called the association to order and the following program was carried out: Welcome address by Rev D L Reed, president of Wheeling Division No. 511 Rev Reed's remarks were short and right to the point, so much so that he even welcomed our distinguished guests, visitors and delegates to the sleet and snow that was falling fast and thick upon the streets at that time. The response on behalf of the association was made by Lady Queen Davis of Fairmont, who seemed to have accepted the welcome so fittingly

made by Ivy Reed with the exception of the snow and sleet, as she thought that Fairmont had plenty for the present. There were many short speeches made by visiting delegates. A deputy was appointed to visit all the divisions with a view to rallying the members to the business cause of the association. The association plans to open a chain of groceries in Clarksville and Fairmont. As soon as these shall have been put upon a working basis we plan to establish the work in every city in West Virginia. The next meeting of the association will be held at Enterprise, W. Va. February 8.
As a result of the visit of Hon. Rudolph E. Smith and the Business Association, twenty new members have been added to our dayion. There will be a meeting at the Liberty Hall Hallday at 330 p.m. at which time Attorney Wilfred F. Shellman will address the division on 'The Part Negroes Have Played in International Law' The speaker was formerly professor of international law in the John M. Mangston School of Law, Washington, D. C., and seems to be equal to the occasion
GREETINGS FROM PITTSBURGH, PA
January 22 1923
Prof W. William H. Ferrie,
55 West 135th street
New York, N. J.
My Dear Professor —
Permit me to congratulate you on the splendid editorials you have been feeding us upon for the past three months, especially must I congratulate you and thank you for the editorial of January 20, as well as those for the three preceding weeks.
It is true that what we need in the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this time are counterpropagandists. Garvey Boston and Ferris are among those whom I live in mind "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty" True as that is, how few among us realize that truth. In referring to Professor Bruce you are the only one capable, I believe, to remind him of the things he has left undone. I am contemplating, however, sending him the editorial of January 20, and feel that I should instruct him to read it backward, then forward. Shall we not quote A C. Stewart in this connection
"Men garble sounds and symbols in intellectual plane.
And yet for all their gimbals this giant fact remains.
The good hail earth, God bless her bills all her sons to sleep.
And never itome's confessor can socrut sounder keep."
We are benefited always when we read after you on the editorial page, because you do not seek a point on your opponents or those whom you might advise, but rather deal so logically with the things that none can escape its truths.
Yourse faternally,

HON. JACOB S. SLAPPY,
HIGH COMMISSIONER, ELEC-
TRIFIES CHARLESTON DIV.
Hon Jacob S. Blappy, High Commissioner, electrified a Charlestown audience Wednesday evening, January 17 when he spoke at the I M E. Zion Church, on Concord street, of which Rev. Parker is pastor. His exposition of the doctrines of the U N I A. I was most convincing. His subject was, "God has heard the cry of His people." The commissioner said that he was like John the Baptist "criing in the wilderness." He admonished Negroes to awake from their slumber and let man know that they are men, and urged them to stick together like other men that what is good for the other fellow is also good for the Negro, that the proper leader for the Negro must be born of his people, to lead the people right
The commissioner said that no one had ever put forth a program such as that promulgated by Marcus Garvey, namely, that Africa in the God-given country of the Negroes, and if they cannot claim it where in the world are they going* He stated that the white man owns this country and that all the Negro has is a little faith in Christ The I N I A is pulling the covering off those asylophan Negroes who do nothing. He said that the other race is tired of "doing" for the Negro, who like a calf at waning time, when its mother kicks it off, still sticks. The white man wants to wear the Negro, but he still hangs on, in spite of the kicks he is receiving. Rey C Roc delivered a very fitting address on the necessity of the members of the U N I A sticking together. He also stated that the commissioner is a man of ability, and he felt that every Negro man and woman should be in the I N I A

Wednesday evening if desired. Three were two members added to the association and one application. One of these, Mr. Cyrus Collins, a merchant, offered the use of his hall at any time to the U. N. L. A. Thus we have a temporary Liberty Hall.
"On Monday evening, January 22, the Commissioner spoke at Calvary Baptist Church, Ashley avenue and Sumter street. Rev Charles Dandridge pastor. This meeting was staged by Division 113, whose president is Mr. G. A. Hollman. The pastor welcomed the commissioner in a few felicitous words, expressing his pleasure at being honored with the privilege of receiving an officer of one of the largest organizations in the world to Calvary Baptist Church of Charleston. He stated that to be a member of such an organization was indeed a privilege to be proud of. A brief talk was then made by President Hollman, who wound up by saying that the organization had no password but "Get together."
The High Commissioner was then introduced. He expressed himself as feeling at home in the Calvary Baptist Church, and then began to speak of the apparent indifference of the young men of the race to things of material good for them but were exceeding. Interested in the frivolous things of life, such as the theatre. He told of the Universal Negro Improvement Association having heard the cry of the people in the Southland, and so had sent him to say a word to the race. He spoke of his love for banks owned and controlled by colored people, but he did not believe in their taking all in and putting nothing out. He said that some business should be opened for the race by which they can earn a livelihood.
The commissioner said that these banks mean wealth to a certain group, who need nothing about the welfare of the masses, yet they expect to be supported by the race. He admonished people of means within the race to do something to relieve the sufferings of the masses, the time has come when Negroes should provide industries for Negroes. He said the greatest suffer-

ing within the race is caused by the race itself.
Negroes, he said, do not believe in each other; that being true, they do not believe in themselves. He stated that every nation has had its sacrifices and that the Negro must make up his mind to make sacrifices and die as other races of the world have done.
He said that there is no greater work that a man can do than to spend his life for the unborn children. He also urged unity, brotherly love and financial support.
He urged that Negroes teach their children to know that there were other great men besides George Washington, that they should learn to know something about Toussaint L'Ouverture and other great black men. He further said that Negroes gave civilization to the world: Nimrod, a black man, built the first government. The commissioners said that the Negro has fought everyone's battles but his own, and urged them to do something for themselves. He said that if Negroes do not accept Africa it will be thrust down their thorats.
This speech was so dory and convincing that the audience was spellbound; it was indeed a masterpiece.
On Sunday, January 21, the commissioner visited the Maryville division ELISI DORSETT,

DISTINGUISHED DELEGATES
INSPIRE OAKLAND DIVISION
"Venl. Vidi. Vici," they came, they saw they conquered all doubts, all misrepresentation and all existing prejudices concerning the merits, growth and progress of the greatest of all Negro movements, the Universal Negro Improvement Association founded and guided by the indomitable leader the Hon. Marcus Garvey, when for two consecutive evenings Frida) and Saturday December 29 and 30 at Parka Chapel the members of the Oakland Division No. 18s and other interested literally fenated from the fountain of hope, inspiration and information, supplied by these able orators, statement and international diplomats, His Highness, Hon. G O Marke, of Africa, supreme deputy of the U N I A and chairman of the delegation, also His Excellency Hon Wm Sherrill, second assistant president-general and titular American leader
Hon Wm Sherriill was the first speaker and held the audience spellbound as he coached from one ontological height to another. After relating many incidents pertaining to the delegation's activities abroad, Mr Sherriill paid a beautiful tribute to the ambitious youth and the many possibilities and opportunities within their grasp.
Hon G. O. Marke, the chairman of the delegation, then related in detail the many obstacles and difficulties experienced by the representatives of our grand and noble race. Though possessing a faint foreign accent, his remarks were highly entertaining and educational. Mr. Marke is an exceptionally intelligent speaker, and has at his command a most extensive vocabulary. Occasionally the speaker would relate some amusing experience that delighted and entertained his hearers.
The first evening's program was presided over by Vice-President T E Smith. A splendid musical selection was rendered by Dr. Wilson's talented sons, accompanied by their accomplished mother, after which Mrs. Lois Pittman, lady president, delivered the welcome address on behalf of the citizens of Oakland, and very creditably did so perform the task. Unique and original was the program staged by two members of the juvenile department. First to appear was little Bertha Collins, who when asked what her greatest aspiration was, replied, "To be the first lady in the land of Africa." After being introduced as the future "first lady" she recited a number entitled "Black Psychology." Then Master Joseph Johnson, the boy phenom of the juveniles, was asked to state his greatest ambition and replied: "To be the future President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association," whereupon he was introduced as the future "President-General" amid thunderous applause and laughter. The young aspirant then recited "Stand By Your Post" Hon. C. E. Ware, commissioner-elect for District 12, then on behalf of the State of California, urging the delegates to go on until the wonderful work so nobly started might soon be realised.
Oakland's chief regret was that more of this interesting discussion could not be heard. But hoping that time will favor us again with their presence, and wishing them Godspeed and heaven's richest blessings as they continue their great and noble work, was the parting message from the membership of the Oakland Division, Local No. 188
A. B. GRAY,
Chairman of Publicity
SANTIAGO, CUBA, NEWS
Jan. 17. 1923.
Last night the Legions and B. C. Nurses held a meeting, partially divinere. There were present Capt. R. A. Brown, in the chair; First Lieut. W. A. Rose and Second Lieut. N. A. McCatty, also Mrs. A. M. Lightburn, lady president and matron B. C. N. This was the first meeting of its kind held in our division. After opening in the usual way, by singing the ode, Capt. Brown gave a lucid address explaining the tenor of the meeting, which was nicely attended, there being thirty young men and about eighteen young ladies present on the B. C. N. book. After singing "Lead Kingdin Light," our organizer, George Rawlings, addressed the audience with speech. His address was an enthusiastic one. He expounded to us what we really can do for this cause. Then he told us to rise from our drowningness and swell the ranks of舷 auxiliary. He exported the young ladies to do things decently. Then he told them how they will be made good appeses without fear. He told them everyone has their part to play, as all the high officers; therefore there is no way for fun, but serious business." After the singing of Hymn 151, the chairman introduced the secretary "From Mirrida, E. Gabay. With the sounding of the gavel and the rising of the audience, the gentleman
rose and gave us a warm and encouraging address. He quoted how the world at large is getting into this movement and how even Jamaica, our homeland, was suppressed a few years ago and now how it is swimming to the goal. Then he challenged us to be careful and aware as Miranda was coming up thunderingly to rob us of the honor of being headquarters as its numbers are increasing and its work is encouraging Hurrah for Mirada amid cheering applause. The speaker retired to his seat
The next was a limelight address to our valiant Mr McIntyre. He put stress on the legions to obey. He showed them in no mean way the joy there is in obedience and the day honor there is in disobedience. He further to the gilts not to be afraid of their duties and they must stand by each other and form a big ring to help, not only our noble leader but our own family. And he showed us the great good our leader is doing and that he needs our support. This address was very interesting to the legions. He said disobedience is many word, but obedience is God. Then he quoted in the days of Adam and Eve in the garden After this inspiring address Hymn 183 was sung with enthused voices and uplifted hearts.
Next was a young legion who did not help us any, as I do not consider the youth to be ambitious. Then came the warrior hold, the inflammable speaker ex-Capt Hyrillo Ernesto Arnoldo. This might Jim's surely electrifies his hearers, as far as militarism is concerned. He spoke in glorious voice. How he deprived the action of the young legion and any other militarism, as also the remarks of a bygone speaker. He lights the house ablaze with raidy fire. No one could be comfortably seated. No, his words were mixed with nitric acid. The speaker told the legions how he recruited over 4000 men for the British army during the last war when he was down in Panama and Colon. He told the young legions what their duties will be and what will be desired of them. He told them war is ahead. Get busy. No time for ole scouring. Be prepared if they should be called by the honor minister of the legion. What will they do, what will they say, are you prepared my young lads? Was the question he asked. Silenced prevailed. He told then they should not be ashamed of anything regarding militarism.
He was point blank in his speech. He spoke seriously on the subject: "Discipline," and emphasized his energy to do all he can to make the legion what it ought to be, as he also was the organizer of these legions of Division 194. He asked them to be cheerful and induce all others to come and enroll their names. He mildly rebuke Sergt Duff as an example-setter to his men. Then he wound up his lightning-space speech with good cheer, amid the greatest form of aplause that was ever given to any local speaker.
Hymn 1 was sung, the matron of the B. C. N. then gave an encouraging address, imploring all the ladies, young and old, to fail in rank, as their services will be needed. To this, most of the ladies replied. The ex-secretary should have prescheduled a sermon to the audience, intimated that it was growing late, and the legion had enough to keep their minds occupied, so he would defer his sermon for the next meeting, but he asked them to go home and study the chapter of First Samuel 17. Commit to memory these words. "And David took the head of the Philinite and placed it in his armor under his tent, etc. After this many legions enrolled their nancee Mr. Rovilina gave out the announcements and invited everybody to always be present at all our meetings Hurrah' for Africa's sons and daughters. With the singing of Ethiopia's Anthem, a most enjoyable meeting came to a close with the benediction
We regret to hear of the tragic end of Dr. W. Eason and we tender our heartfelt condolence to his bereaved family, but we hope that from what we have heard of the late Dr. Eason, others who fell from grace like the Muqtahirite may learn to serve Almighty God with honesty, zeal and true love for their fellow men, so that they will be kept clear from the abominable sin.
Our Santiago division, the headquarters of the Oriente, is pealing forth the gospel of a united Negro race of Cuba. We have added another link to our chain, on Friday night last when through the ardent zeal of our president and secretary, we opened up a Literary League Society so as to keep our young people together, as also to fit them for the platform height. I cannot pause from mentioning a little of our mass meeting progress despite the fact that there are knockers and chickens of the vilest type environed us. yet our progress is rapid; the various speakers are making the audience warm over the redemption of Africa.
Mr A. L. Allick stirred the hearts of many of our people last night when he had a heart-to-heart talk with us on the divisional matters; also the strength he emphasizes in the loyal support of our noble leader He elucidates in no mean way, then he exhorts us untenuously to take for our motto "Obedience." This speaker is figurative and brave. In him is an addition to our platform. This being his first time, we wish him a likely career and great indulgences.
Our first male vice-president, Mr. J. J. Francis, reasoned with us keenly on the topic of obedience. He said in part that unless we learn to obey and put our obedience into practice we will never be the Negroes that the Hon. Marcus Garvey needs to help him to put the great program over. He spoke of the actions of the unscrupulous Negroes. He then defined the prosperous actions of the scrupulous ones and showed us that our destiny is in our own hands and that we should no longer be playing with this great cause, but be serious and settle down to business, as our leader wants work and not fun. He in part told the audience that every Negro is requested to become an active member
the tomb in conjunction with other Egyptologists. The letter said in part.
As we entered the first doorway it seemed more like a dream than a reality. Before us lay piled to the ceiling paraphernalia of an Egyptian king, golden councils, golden chariots inlaid with precious stones a golden chair, chrysanthemum with ivory in patterns or horrifying pharaohs, chests of all descriptions.
"One was especially beautiful with painted designs of hunting scenes, with animals and proscriptions so delicately drawn and colored that it would vie with any Japanese art of the highest description.
These chests were all filled with precious artifacts.
Under the couches were many cases of food. Some of the food was in the form of animals and fowl. Between the two couches on the floor stand four armed alabaster cases of such a quaint workmanship that for beauty alone to say nothing of their age they would be priceless."
Then Professor Breatesta a letter described the second chamber of the tomb which, he said, had not been covered.

Organizaciones Enemigas que en la Sombra Conspiran en
Contra de Nucstro Magno Movimiento—Celosas del
Éxito de la Asociación Universal Para el Adelanto de
la Raza Negra—Campaña Universal Con el Propósito
de Exponer Los Enemigos de la Raza—Grupo de
Negros que Miente y se Beneficia de la Ignorancia
de Los Demas
Los enemigos de nuestra organización y un número de periodistas de nuestra raza, descendiendo al mas infimo grado de conspiración en contra de su propia raza, han recurrido al último medio de exposición denunciando ante los blancos y su gobierno, a su manera, el propósito de nuestro magno movimiento.
Esta actitud nos recuerda el proceder de los hebreos con su conciudadano y salvador el Cristo. Ellos odiaban al hombre llamado Jesús, quien vino a salvarles, por el mero hecho de como ellos ser hebreo y por tal circunstancia no tener privilegio especial alguno. Por celo y envidia del humilde Nazareno, le persiguieron hasta conseguir finalmente privarle del sagrado derecho a la vida.
Los enmigos del Cristo estaban compenetrados de no tener poder para intervenir en la vida y prácticas de aquel regenerador de la humanidad, pues toda autoridad descansaba en el gobierno romano. Resolvieron finalmente denunciarle ante las autoridades romanas, para que éstas hicieran lo que ellos como hebreos no podian hacer.
El gobierno romano y sus jucces en particular trataron de demostrar que Jesús no habia cometido error o crimen alguno y recomendaron clemencia por su libertad. Los hebreos hubieran preferido libertar a Barrabás, el peligro mayor para aquella sociedad, antes de devolver al santo varon a la tranquilidad y para satisfacción de aquel instinto inhumano, el Cristo fue crucificado.
Los elementos de nuestra raza, enemigos de nuestra organización, copiando al pié de la letra las prácticas de los antiguos hebreos, con ningun poder como Negros para injuriarse el uno al otro, recurren a la majestad del gobierno de los Estados Unidos para que sus autoridades federales hagan lo ellos por sí solo no han podido realizar.
Los hebreos sintieron mayor grado de disgusto al notar que, después de la crucificación de Jesús, su doctrina tomo mayor incremento extendiendose por todo el universo. Hoy día vemos que en todos los climas el hombre profesa las virtudes de su santa fe. Los antiguos hebreos, inconcientemente, plantaron la fundación universal de la doctrina cristiana. Los Negros del presente, enemigos de nuestra organización, del mismo modo harán mas prepotente el único de los movimientos por medio del cual la raza en general adquirirá su salvación.
No nos perturba por un momento la actitud de estos traidores de la raza. Ellos han escrito toda clase de cartas y comunicaciones a la prensa de los blancos y a las autoridades gubernamentales, pero generalmente acontece que aquellos que preparan la trampa para que otros caigan, tarde ó temprano la misma trampa será usada para ellos. ¿Qué aconteció al inventor de la guillotina francesa?
Lo que estos entes de nuestra raza esperan realizar con su política malsana, en contra de un movimiento que tiende a protejer los intereses de los millones de Negros en el universo, es imposible imaginar. Si tuvieran poder suficiente para causar algun daño a la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, tiempo llegaria en que ese mismo daño recaeria sobre ellos, por medio de las mismas agencias que actualmente utilizan para destruir nuestra organización. Si enseñamos al ladrón el medio mas fácil de penetrar en la casa de nuestro vecino, en dia no lejano ese mismo ladrón penetrará fácilmente en la nuestra.
Es de extrañarnos que oficiales del gobierno abriguen la crecencia de que nuestro movimiento es un movimiento anarquista, con pretenciones de derrocar al mismo gobierno. Una y otra vez hemos expuesto el objeto de nuestra institución. La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra no es socialista, bolshevista o anarquista; no tenemos conección con alguna otra organización; somos pro-Negros.
Nuestra única conección es aquella por medio de la cual hemos de hacer de nuestra raza un pueblo libre e independiente en su madre patria, el continente de Africa. Para realizar esto no tendremos necesidad de ir a Rusia, ni adherirnos a ninguna sexta ó partido existente; ello será realizado por medio de nuestro exclusivo esfuerzo.
Cómpenetradados del propósito de nuestra organización, no hay temor de que esta tenga que adherirse en modo alguno a ningun grupo ó partido radical de blancos. Hemos de demostrar al mundo una vez mas que la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra es exclusiva en sus principios y no ha mendingado ni mendigará cooperación de organizaciones de otras razas. Todo peso y centavo adquirido e invertido por nuestra organización, es el fruto de la labor de los elementos de nuestra propia raza
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1923
Francia se ha apoderado del rico valle del Ruhr de Alemania, no tanto para obtener reparaciones como para controlar la industria metalurgica europea.
Cuando Francia reconquistó la Lorena, readquirino el 70 por ciento del territorio aleman más rico entre el productor de minerales de hierro.
El valle del Ruhr, de que se ha apoderado ahora Francia, produjo el año antes de la guerra cerca de las cinco octavas partes del mejor carbon producido en Alemania.
Un monopoio del carbón y el hierro, las dos materias primas de la mayor industria de la Europa continental, es el objetivo de Francia, actualmente el más fanfarrón e imperialista gobierno de Europa.
Francia, desangrada y postrada, en lucha valientemente por su existencia, como luchaba contra la más fuerte y arrogante Alemania, ganó la admiración del mundo.
Pero Francia es la arrogante hoy. Es el turno de Alemania postrada al ser tiramizada. La indemnización alemana, treinta y tres mil millones de dólares, fue cifrada en el tratado de Versalles en una suma que hasta el habil ministro francés Loucheur calificó de fantastica.
El appendice al tratado contiene las obscuras palabras que Francia antes proyectaba y ahora emplea como autorigación para apoderarse de lo que desea.
Francia no ha sabido jamás como emplear el poder sensatamente. Cuandoquera que ha triunfado se ha convertido en un tranzo; en la amenaza imperialista militarista de Europa.
Sus grandes monarcas obligaron hasta a los pacificos bábaros a unirse con los ingleses dirigidos por Marlborough para derrotar al matachin francés.
Napoleón, encarnación del espirito de la Francia imperialista, arrollo a Europa cien años más tarde, y después de instalar a sus maniquies en los tronos de España, Holanda e Italia, encontró con su destino en Rusia.
Prusia e Inglaterra uniéronse de nuevo con los lazos del miedo, que son más fuertes que cualquier amor de las naciones entre si. Pusieron un fin a aquelprominente despota francés.
Su debil sobrino, Napoleon III, de nuevo cautivo la imaginación belica de Francia. Atropelló a Méjico, pontando al hermano del emperador de Austria en un trono americano allí. Nuestro gobierno, contra el cual habia tramado y conspirado durante nuestra guerra civil, ordena a su ejército, por su propia seguridad, abandonar este continente. El infatuado gobernante francés entonces desafió al destino, declarando la guerra a Prusia. Sus ejércitos fueron rodeados y elheiro prisonero cuarenta y siete días después. Francia está otra vez sembrando vientos y recogera la tempestad. El presente camno tonado por Francia conduce directamente a otro Blenheim, otro Waterloo u otro Sedan.
El militarismo aleman fue nada comparado con el militarismo francés; una necesidad, una uitacción superficial. El estipiduo kaiser trataba de ser un Napoleón. Todo lo que tuvo de común con Napoleón fue su final; su destierro.
El desastre debería ser el final de todos los imperialismos. El tiempo de las tritanias has pasado. Los dias del despotismo han terminado.
El imperialismo significa, sencillamente, esclavitud forzada. La esclavitud de una persona a otra ha pasado. La esclavitud de una nación a otra esta acabandose. Las naciones no están ya dispuestas a seguir siendo naciones sometidas. Los pueblos no están ya satisfechos con estar en dependencia de otros pueblos.
Las naciones están deseosas de asociarse en federaciones, en estados unidos, para beneficio mutuo.
No están en disposición de estar sujetas y sometidas al deseo de un conquistador militar con el único y solo beneficio de esos conquistadores
Si Francia no sabe esto lo aprenderá en la escuela durísima de la experiencia. la única escuela que puede introducir el buen sentido.
La Recompensa
Cuando, en 1914, la Gran Bretaña estaba estudiando la pavorosa alternativa de neutralidad de guerra, cuál fué el factor emocionalmente decisivo? Fué la violación de la neutralidad de Bélgica. Cual es el pueblo que más orgullosamente figura en los pabelliones ingleses quemados por las batallas? Es IPres, defendido por Inglaterra a un terrible coste de sangre y dinero, porque erá el último sector de Bélgica que permanecía son ocupar por los alemanes. A quiér abrió la Gran Bretagna las puertas de su hospitalidad más ampliamente que a los refugiados de Bélgica? A qué otro pais tan escasamente devastado física o económicamente se le ha dado antelación en las
reparaciones como la que se ha concedido a Bélgica?
En vista de todo esto, queda fuera de la comprensión del pueblo americano con Bélgica puede ponerse tan completenemente en desacuerdo con la opinión americana y británica en el auño de las reparaciones y en la situación creado sobre este problema en la que se ha pasado totalmente del lado de Francia.
La cuestion de las reparaciones es una cuestion económica y debe ser asi considerada. Si Bélgica e Italia, que se ha unido con Bélgica en el apoyo de Francia en oposición a Inglaterra, reconocen el hecho de que es una cuestion económica, entonces claramente Bélgica e Italia no tienen fe en el respeto por los economistas de Inglaterra y los Estados Unidos. los dos principales países industriales, comerciales y bancarios.
Presión Financiera Sobre
Los Turcos
La Gran Bretaha está haciendo presion financiera para que se produzca un pronto arreglo en la conferencia de paz de Lausanne.
Leeslic Urquhart, director de la Ruso-Asiatic Consolidated, ha propuesto la formación de una corporación para el desarrollo económico de Turquia. Este se prometa vastas concesiones y es urgido a los turcus a hacer la paz y dejar de guiar poniendo obstaculos a las proposiciones de paz de los aliados.
Mustafa Kemal Pasha, jefe del gobierno de Angora, sera uno de los cuatro directores turcos de la corporación.
El Español Como Lengua de Cultura
El Dr Guillermo Sherwell, secretario general de la alta comisión interamericana, pronunció en el Atenco Hispanoamericano de Washington un brillante discuro sobre este fecundo tema: El Español como Lengua de Cultura. El orador, que conoce a perfección la lengua española al par que la inglesa, muestra un alto sentido de justicia en el bosquejo presentado sobre la etica y valor cultural del idioma castellano, reconocida en todas las latitudes, vinculado como esta en la historia universal del pasado, el presente y el porvenir a la manera del griego de los tiempos posteriores a la prehistoria y más tarde del latin, vehiculo de cultura universal para todas las razas, con la diferencia de que el español, que permanentemente catalogado entre las lengues vivas.
El orador, quizas recordando aquello que tan bien expreso en sus decimas magistrales del 2 de Mayo Bernardo López Gareia, aquello de que no hay un puido de tier t sin una tumba española, dice como, no tan solo en las latitudes del sur y del centro sino también en el norte, el español lucho por la independencia de las colonias, aquí mismo en los Estados Unidos, a favor de la enamcipación de Inglaterra, lo mismo que en Méjico, en el centro y en el sur por la enamcipación de la Madre Patra, porque como español y llegado a la mayoridad deseaba gobernarse automicamente. De alli que en las antiguas colomas españolas se havan sendo diluendo hasta exturgeur por completo todo lo que de passion se puso en la refriegia libertadora, al punto de que las nacientes republicas americanas, cuando hurgan en su pasado heroico, llegan siempre al tronco inconfundible de la raza, que es su propia raza, como si de aquel batallar no quedara en que otra cosa que el heroismo desplegado en el tricolor de Bolivar, San Martin Hidalgo, O'Higgins y otros y en el al roja y gualda de España
El mismo criterio se va abriendo paso en las tierras del norte, en la América anglo-sajona, el discuro del Dr. Sherwell es un signo revelador de ese sentimiento. Ya era hora de comenzar a poner a un lado los rozamientos de una hora, contribuyendo asi al acercamiento efectivo de la nación descubridora y las dos Americas, porque asi se cooperará mejor a la obra de cultura internacional, hasta que llegue el dia de erigir el bronce simbolico de la concordia y la fraternidad al esfuerzo español en tierra de los Estados Unidos.
El discuro del secretario general de la alta comisión interamericana, por cuyas venas corre también sangre española, es un paso efectivo en el sentido de esa cooperación y mérece todo nuestro sincero aplauso.— La Prensa, N. Y.
Méjico Aceptaría Otro Representante Apostólico
El presidente Alvaro Obregón, de los Estados Unidos Mejicanos, contestando la protesta hecha por el Vaticano, respecto a la expulsión de monseñor Ernesto Filippi, numico apostólico en dicho país, cabelgratifo con esta fecha al cardenal Gaaparri, secretario pontifical de Estado, que el puesto de delagado de Su Sanidad en la república mejicana mantendrase vacante, sujeto al nombramiento de un nuevo emisario del Papa, a fin de que los trajeros inherentes a la iglesia católica pudieran continuar desenvilándose
Los representantes de Chile y el Peru que presentarán los alegatos de sus respectivos gobiernos sobre la cuestión. Tatma-Arica en los trámites del arbitraje ante el presidente de los Estados Unidos, se esperan en Washington a mediados de febrero, según noticias rectbidas por las embajadas de esos países.
El representante de Chile sera Ernesto Barros Jarpa, que fue ministro de Relaciones Exteriores al tiempo de las negociaciones con el Peru en diciembre de 1921 y que dieron lugar a la invitación por este gobierno a ambas naciones para que enviaran aqui sus delegados a discutir el problema.
El caso del Perú será presentado por el Dr. Melitón Porras, exministro de Relaciones Exteriores y presidente de la delegación del Perú a la conferencia del año ultimo, y por el doctor Solón Polo, que fue consejero de la delegación. La embajada tiene aviso de que saldrá el primero de febrero del Perú. En el protocolo Tacna-Arica se provee que se oirá a ambas partes, cuyos argumentos se tomarán en consideración, así como las pruebas y documentos que se presenten.
Italia Rinde Homenaje Bolivar
En presencia de una gran multitud se ha descubierto en Roma una plancha de marmol en una plaza a que recientemente se ha dado el nombre de Simon Bolivar. En dicha plancha se ostentan inscripciones consagradas al gran Libertador americano, nacido en la capital de Venezuela, a la vez que alusivas al sinculo que une a los pueblos latinos del mundo, tanto de la Europa como de la América de habla española y portuguesa. Este acto es expresion del movimiento iniciado recientemente en Italia para el acercamiento de la raza, comenzando por rendir homnaje a sus héroes y a todo lo que sea exponente y la cultura latina. En las plaza Bolivar se levantará un monumento al genio americano.

Relly Renunciará Cargo que Occupará Edwards
Mr. E. Mont Reilly, gobernador de Puerto Rico, cuya administración ha sido objeto de ataques continuos por espacio de muchos meses, se cree renunciar a su puesto que ocupará el general Clarence R. Edwards, comandante de la división veintiise durante la guerra mundial.
Mr Reilly y el general Edwards, encuentranse actualmente en Washington, y celebrarán una conferencia con el presidente Harding.
Como se sabe, los más encarnizados enemigos del governador Reilly son miembros prominentes del partido unionista de Puerto Rico, entre los cuales figuran el señor Barcelo, presidente del senado puertorriqueño; el señor Félix Dávila, comisionado de Puerto Rico en Washington; que se estaba preparando a presentar una moción exigiendo se efectuara en el congreso una investigación del gobierno de Reilly, y otros no menos conocidos coterranos de dichos funcionarios públicos. Se dice que los puertorriqueños ven con buenos ojos al general Edwards, que se retiró no hace mucho del servicio militar activo.
ADVISORY BOARD OF SCHOOL OF RELIGION OF HOWARD UNIV. REPORTS SUCCESSFUL YEAR'S WORK
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 8—The Advisory Board of the Extension Department of the School of Religion of the Howard University, organized January 4, 1922, and composed of representative Christian workers of different denominations, met at the university Thursday, January 4, 1922, the date signaling one year of active work on the part of the various members of the committee in assisting the Howard University School of Religion in its inter-denominational work in behalf of all Negro churches.
are. The Rt. Rev. Alfred Hunting, R. C. Bishop of Washington (D. M.), president (N. P.), Henry Striving Hamilton (Fresh.), associate editor of "Christian Work," New York city, hospital, and Dr. Emmett J. Scott (D. M.), secretary-treasurer of Howard University, treasurer. The reports of the editors and the various members of the board indicated that very definite results have been obtained in teaching and helping the untrained Negro pastor. The whole plan of inter-demonstrational co-operation to bring about a better trained Negro ministry has proved of great value, according to the results already shown.
The certain facts which were presented to the Advisory Board in January, 1922, when it was formed, regarding the need for greater effort in the matter of providing a better educated ministry for the colored churches of our country have been definitely considered during the past year.
The most important matter to be considered was the providing at Howard University of adequate facilities for the thorough training of larger numbers of Negro men for the ministry. This requires a sum of $40,000 to complete the minimum amount, for a building as headquarters for the School of Religion of Howard University; the securing of a $200,000 endowment fund to furnish an annual income of $19,000 to enable the school to enlarge its faculty, and the securing of a $200,000 endowment fund to furnish an annual income of $19,000 to promote the important extension work of the School of Religion.
The Advisory Board decided at the first meeting that Howard University was the logical institution where such a work as providing trained Negro ministers might be undertaken, being the only inter-denominational secondary in the country doing in a large way work among colored students in the field of religion. It was noted that the Howard University, with over 2,000 students of college and professional grade, is the largest university in the world specializing in the training of colored youth, drawing these students from ten foreign countries and thirty-eight states. The results already obtained show that there is an increased interest in this field, and the needed assistance will doubtless be given at an early

A. Lawrence Lowell, Esq. President
Harvard University
Cambridge Mass.
Dear President Lowell
The policy promulgated by you of excluding from the freshman dormitories at Harvard all colored undergraduates contravene, in my opinion the traditions and ideals which have done so much to develop the greatness of our university as a seat of learning and as a liberal institution.
Your policy of exclusion is the adoption of the Jim Crow method, of the South, the complete negation of the very reason for the creation of the freshman dormitories. As an undergraduate I was an ardent supporter of yours in advocating the establishment of freshman dormitories and mandatory attendance, because I believed it was a practicable way of furthering the democratic aims of the university.
The few colored men who enter Harvard are educated and cultured students seeking higher education and the opportunities afforded for a liberal education. Can it be that these few men can so shock the sensibilities of present-day Harvard undergraduates that they desire to deny them a right to live and to eat in these spacious dormitories? These colored students are not seeking to be introduced into the homes of their classmates, or to attend their team and dance, or to obtrude where they are not wanted, all they ask is a right to live and be live, and to enjoy the same privilege as other undergraduates in purely academic affairs.
It is generally admitted that it is through education that the condition of our colored citizens can best be improved, yet when the leaders of that race, such as young Bruce, grandson of a former distinguished United States Senator, and whose father was an honor graduate, seeks to enter Harvard, are they hopeful to be brutally told that they can enter only at the price of ostracism? Where is this system of prescription going to end? Aro Asiatics to be discriminated against? Is this the same Harvard that conferred an honorary degree a few decades ago on Booker T. Washington?
Harvard is not a private school, but a great national university with its gates wide open to all who can comply with the entrance requirements, based on scholarship, not on race, color or creed.
During the war I had the honor and privilege of serving with a colored National Guard regiment from New York State. Those enlisted men were imbued with the idea that they were fighting to make the world safe for democracy. What a hollow mocker! I would be derelict to the memory of those men in my command who paid the supreme sacrifice in battle if I remain silent on the issue affecting the civil rights of their race. It was good enough then in defense of our country to sleep alongside our colored comrades, but it seems to be too much now to ask undergraduates even to live under the same roof with cultured Negroes, although separated by partition. This is not the spirit of democracy, it is not the spirit of New England, and it is not the spirit of Harvard. Certainly there has been no referendum among Harvard graduates on this amazing divergence from our historic policy. Have we already forgotten the glorious memory of Col Robert Gould Shaw, of the Pifft-fourth Massachusetts colored infamy? What of the uncompromising and fearless fights waged by John Quincy Adams, Charles Sumner, Edward Everett and, in our own day, by Theodore Roosevelt in behalf of the civil rights of the Negro race? I do not believe that such discriminatory action would have ever been considered in the lifetime of Major Higginson and other prominent Civil war veterans.
My interest in the civil rights of colored citizens antedates the world war and might be termed inherited by my grandfather, an secretary of State during President Grant's administration, promulgated the Fifteenth Amendment.
I hope, Mr. President that you will reconsider your edict of exclusion which not only violates the principles of justice but Harvard customs and traditions made sacred by the life-blood of her graduates.
Respectfully yours.
HAMILTON FISH, Jr. M. C.
EGYPT A NATION; SULTAN PROCLAIMED KING
EGYPT A NATION; SULTAN PROCLAIMED KING
In accordance with the British de-
claration abolishing the protectorate, the
Sultan has issued a script declaring
Egypt a sovereign independent state
and assuming the title King of Egypt
A salute of 101 guns was fired.
Lord Allenby, the High Commis-
sioner, accompanied by the residency
sight, called at the Adbin Palace and
congratulated King Fund on the now
sown which Egypt had entered.
The Sultan has sent the following
leaders to Sarwat Pasha, his Prime Minis-
ister:
To Our Noble Natipin—God has graciously permitted the independence of Egypt to be attained at our hands. We are grateful in God, and hereby acknowledge to the whole world that from this day, Egypt enjoys independence and sovereignty. We have taken for ourselves the title of His Majesty the Emperor of Egypt, in order to ensure the country's dignity, and international peace. We ask God and the nation to
bear witness that we will endeavor to
work for the welfare and happiness
of our beloved country. We hope this
day to inaugurate, after it which will
restore Egypt's poor ground.
Million Persons Hear His Secrets of Happiness Advises Plenteous Laughter—Urges Faith in Mankind and an Enjoyment of Present Things
Chambers M. Upew broadcast his stories for happiness, long life and other things. New Year's Eve to an audience estimated at more than a million persons. The speech was made at the American Radio Exposition in Grand Central Plaza and was sent out through WEAK the transmitting station of the American Telephone & Telegraph Company.
Mr Dewey who is within three months of being 87 years of age said. We can best bid farewell to the old man welcome the new by an ex-pression of despair thanksgiving for the age in which we live. The old world concludes its plaque in its seven wonders. They were the Pyramids of Egypt, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon the Temple of Diana at Ephesus the Stature of Jupiter at Athena by Phidias the Muleooleum erected for Mauroine king of Caria, by his widow, Artemisia the Colonus of Rhodes and the Pharaohs of Alexandria. They neither furnished nor symbolized any benefits for humanity but for thousands of years they stood for the best of their centuries.
"The wonders of our time are the conquest of the earth, the waters and the air, and victories for health, longevity and happiness of the people. It is remarkable that the most wonderful and important of these beneficent discoveries have occurred within the memory of those still living. "If I may draw upon my experience, I recall the first message sent over the telegraph wires. It was a dispatch from Baltimore by Mouse the inventor, to the Congress at Washington it read, "What hath God wrought?" It argued very little interest, because few believed it.
First Message Around World
Twenty-six years ago, and fifty-two
years after the experiment over a di-
france of forty-eight miles, which was
generally discredited, the Western
Union and Postal Telegraph companies
decided to join in sending a message
around the world. In the second Central
Palace in New York were installed
two instruments operated one way by
Thomas A. Edison and the other by
Mr. Chambler, one of the most expert
telegraphers and president of the
Postal Telegraph Company. I sent this
message to create, nature treasures
and to utilize electric power
for the grandeur of nations and the
peace of the world. The message flow
across plains over mountains and
under meadows and rivers as it climbed
the globe and returned in fifty minutes.
The world was unified and in instantaneous communication.
In 1864 Cyrus W. Field announced the completion of the Atlantic cable and Queen Victoria called to President Lincoln a cordial message of good will between Great Britain and the United States. The cable ceased to function for some time, and during this interruption the people believed a scheme a fraud and the Queen's message a take.
In 1876 forty-six years ago one-sixth interest in the Bell Telephone Company was offered me for $10,000. The most famous electrical expert of the time advised me not to take it, as he did it was a toy and not good so that. The investment would have given me over one hundred millions of dollars. Lepore and Stallishams are dangerous guides.
"A quarter of a century ago General Miles, John Joseph Aster and I, were the judges of the merits of the then known automobiles in a race from New York to Ardley-on-the-Hudson, a distance of twenty miles. Twenty-one started and only three arrived after several hours, and in two decades the automobile industry has become the most vast and beneficient in the world. Within half a century Edison has given us the phonograph and the incandescent light. The London "Times" declared the telephone the latest American humbug and not so useful as speaking tubes. Within this twentieth century has been discovered and perfected wireless telegraphy, which has made a common and communicating fleet of all ships on the seven seas, and each is in touch with the cities of the world.
"Tonight the toy of yesterday is the wonder and necessity of today. The air-encircling the earth is a vast auditorium whose acoustics are so perfect that the voice of the speaker rises from the platform passes the confines of the hall and enters the homes of the millions over distance as vast as space.
We pass this way, but once. We cannot retrace our steps to any preceding milestones. Every time the clock
strikes it is both the announcement of the hour upon which we are entering and the knill of the year which is grim. Each night memory behalves the books and we know before we ask whether the result is on the right or on the wrong side of our own heart.
"Enjoy Things as They Are"
The older we grow the more we realize that life is worth the living. We think too little of the fun there is at We are the person most of laughter. We do not appreciate it we might the man or the woman who can make us forget while we are amused. We cannot help the part and that man is a food who lives in a day is a heir day than we are still.
A NOVEL PLAN TO SAVE BOYS
Like so, We take pleasure in the New York theater a novel and in comedy as boys. Mr. Lloyd's tells of New Haven town who with his singing comedy and silent film have been invited by prominent philologists and editors.
The records of happiness and longevity in the beginning are in cherished and collected cherished hopeful and basking still. If you don't have them create them later. They are yet to be saved here on earth in human nature. The low affection we are deceived. Do not let feelings destroy confidence in the real honest goodness. Know not off and friendship that exists in the world. The are awakening in the majority.
Howard Elliott chairman of the Northern Pacific Railway Company and a member of the executive committee of the New York, New Haven & Hartford and the Chicago Railway & Quincy Railroad companies planned for cooperation from retired users in solving the transportation problem of the United State. The toll was said to have been the first railroad address ever transmitted by radio.
THE GROWTH OF
THE KU KLUX KLAN
Edition Negro World
Dear Sir, the amazing growth of the buk Klux Klan, with its pronounced purpose in Boston is demanding more than ordinary attention.
Even Negroes称它 will have acquired a little width and felt safe under the protection of the Colony, are showing a marked degree of unease. The white man is really responsible for our presence and separatism in this Western Hemisphere. He has tried every imaginable means to keep us apart, finding that his plan is no longer workable due to our numerical and intellectual increase he has decided to devise means to put us together again. This is manifestly true in the program of the buk Klux Klan.
In the face of the outspoken destruction of this organization, which will soon represent the settlement of every white person in America, the expression of the great thinker of the country which has become a slogan that this is a white man's country, Negroes are still persecuted in their claim thereto.
Some of the arrests to be arrested in the attack of the Kukri Khan on the Jews and Catholics. This attack has for its purpose the reduction, or nullifying of the political power of one and breaking the commercial grip of the other.
In the last analysis, the Negro will be the only and real victim of this organization.
Negroes throughout these United States should not hesitate to make a study which would be very brief of the achievements of the various organizations for Negro uplift and swell the causes of the having accomplished the most.
In spite of the danger, we should of us we are still content to remain apart. The trend of event demand can get together.
If the box klux klan can without an inhuman treatment ask out of us then by all means give us the box Kluxers

Mr John A. Collins was party to sponsor for the rise of the Booker T. Washington. In 1896 with Mr. Forty-two he held a Christian workers convention in Montgomery for a large open meeting. For the last one in the history of that city white and colored workers at and spoke on the same platform in a public meeting. In Washington came all the way from Boston to deliver a five minute address and 100 for New England after the meeting. His time was calculated on minutes. Georgia Northern was impressed by the address and in New York Washington to address a private conference at 11 o'clock on his return. The payed the way for Mr Washington being invited to address the Virginia Exposition in 1895. He honor the Canadian evangelist and temperate creator was another color man who rose to prominence through his Christian Workers convention. We trust that Mr Collins will find a field for his work in New York City. The extract from the New York Colle follows.

In Enright a phrase *calling* throws a barricade across the path that leads to prison for many men. Yet for an important an undertaking the means are modest a room or two for head quarters and a friendly understanding of how nature. The need of there is so thin that no such thing as a ready to be. Appropriately the organising staff and the Friends of Love.

They stop at a part of the city where they offer more information. Running out of the city bounded on the west, they are joined by Third Avenue on the north, which leads south through the city and back to New Haven where they are treated of boys he has been begging down the prison population and adding to the route of good citizens. Police statistics show that first offences of boys under fifteen lead to a number of arrests from the city.
The friends of How do not feed
one or provide diversion on places
of resemblance. They provide only
the Collins method. And
Collins does it to put a wrist
on his own foot and get him to

If he comes on one thing more

sportsmanship to be found in the

sport he can't help to evoke and
develop. The love he deals with are
nothing but the goodly good. They

Police operations is an event of force. In New Haven it is given whole heart to be also after years of experience in the New Haven police headquarters in the Friends of Boys. There the police rarely takes an offending boy to court. He knows if he turns the complaint AFTER to Collins the job will not likely come to him again.
Something like 40,000 boys have passed through Collins hands since he started and nearly 4,000 are under his all the time. When one of them gets into mischief he has to have it out with Collins. Collins seems to see everything. It is the spirit of the man in the streets. The boys that work with him attend it and march in the ofender of the police do not. Often
