The Negro World

W. E. BURGHARDT DU BOIS AS A HATER OF DARK PEOPLE FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: W. E. Burghardt Du Bois, the Negro "muleader," who is editor of the "Crisis," the official organ of the National Association for the Advancement of "certain" Colored People, situated at 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, has again appeared in print. This time he appears as author of an article in the February "Century" Magazine under the caption, "Back to Africa," in which he makes the effort to criticize Marcus Garvey, the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Black Star Line. This "unfortunate mulatto," who bewails every day the drop of Negro blood in his veins, being sorry that he is not Dutch or French, has taken upon himself the responsibility of criticizing and condemning other people while holding himself up as the social "unapproachable" and the great "I AM" of the Negro race. But we will see who Mr. Du Bois is, in that he invites his own characterization. So we will, therefore, let him see himself as others see him "Fat, Black, Ugly Man" In describing Marcus Garvey in the article before mentioned, he referred to him as a "little, fat, black man; ugly, but with intelligent eyes and a big head." Now, what does Du Bois mean by ugly? This so-called professor of Harvard and Berlin ought to know by now that the standard of beauty within a race is not arrived at by comparison with another race; as, for instance, if we were to desire to find out the standard of beauty among the Japanese people we would not judge them from the Anglo-Saxon viewpoint, but from the Japanese. How he arrives at his conclusion that Marcus Garvey is ugly, being a Negro, is impossible to determine, in that if there is any ugliness it is on the part of Du Bois and not on the part of the "little fat, black man with the big head," because all this description is typical of the African. But this only goes to show how much hate Du Bois has for the black blood in his veins. Anything that is black, to him, is ugly, is hideous, is monstrous, and this is why in 1917 he had but the lightest of colored people in his office, when one could hardly tell whether it was a white show or a colored vaudeville he was running at Fifth avenue. It was only after the Universal Negro Improvement Association started to pounce upon him and his National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that they admitted that colored element into the association that could be distinguished as Negro, and it was during that period of time that Weldon Johnson and Pickens got a look-in. But even Pickens must have been "ugly" for Du Bois, for they made it so warm for him up to a few months ago that he had to go a-hunting for another job, the time when Marcus Garvey was willing to welcome him into the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Du Bois and White Company It is no wonder that Du Bous seeks the company of white people, because he hates blacks as being ugly. That is why he likes to dance with white people and dine with them and sometimes sleep with them, because from his way of seeing things all that is black is ugly, and all that is white is beautiful. Yet this professor, who sees ugliness in being black, essays to be a leader of the Negro people and has been trying for over fourteen years to deceive them through his connection with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Now what does he mean by advancing colored people if he hates black so much? In what direction must we expect his advancement? We can conclude in no other way than that it is in the direction of losing our black identity and becoming, as nearly as possible, the lowest whites by assimilation and miscegenation. This probably is accountable for the bleaching processes and the hair straightening escapades of some of the people who are identified with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in their mad desire of approach to the white race, in which they see beauty as advocated by the professor from Harvard and Berlin. It is no wonder some of these individuals use the lip stick, and it is no wonder that the erudite Doctor keeps a French beard. Surely that is not typical of Africa; it is typical of that blood which he loves so well and which he bewails in not having more in his veins—French. Lazy and Dependent In referring to the effort of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Movement Association to establish a building in Harlem, he says in the : "There was a long, low, unfmished church basement roofed over. designed as the beginning of a church long ago, but abandoned. Garvey roofed it over, and out of this squat and dirty old Liberty nausea screams his propaganda. As compared with the homes, the busier and church, Garvey's basement represents nothing in accomplishment to my waste in attempt." NEW YORK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 GHARDT DU TER OF DAI CALLS HIS OWN RACE "BLACK AND UGLY," JUDGING FROM THE WHITE MAN'S STANDARD OF BEAUTY NEGRO WHO LIKES SOFT CARPET AND LIFE OF EASE, BORN POOR, BUT DESPISES POOR MASSES Trick of National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to Solve Problem by Assimilation and Color Distinction IS PICKENS HANDSOME OR "UGLY," ACCORDING TO DU BOIS NEGRO LEADERS USING LIPSTICK AND POWDER PUFFS THE MAN WHO IS FRENCH, DUTCH AND AFRICAN ALL IN ONE—WHAT IS HE? effort of his race to create out of nothing something which would be useful to their ownership, in that the utility did Liberty Hall. the speaks of israel property of Negroes, while in another section of his article he praises the "beautiful and luxurious buildings" he claims to be occupied by other black folk, making it appear that these buildings were really the property of these people referred to, such as, according to his own description, "a brick block on Seventh avenue stretching low and beautiful from the Y. W. C. A. with a moving picture house of the better class and a colored 5 and 10 cent store, built and owned by black folks." Du Bois knows he lies when he says that the premises herein referred to were built and are owned by black folks. They are the property of industrious Jews who have sought an outlet for their surplus cash in the colored district. The Y. W. C. A. is a donation from the good white people; but he continues by saying "down beyond on One Hundred and Thirty-eighth street the sun burns the rising spire of an Abyssinian Church, a fine structure built by Negroes who for one hundred years have supported the organization, and are now moving to their luxurious home of soft carpets, stained windows and swelling organ." He also knows that this building has been subscribed to by the Church Extension Society, which is white, and therefore the building is not entirely owned by the members of the Abyssinian Church. Finally, he says "the dying rays hit a low, rambling basement of brick and rough stone." This in reference to Liberty Hall. Independent Negro Effort Liberty Hall represents the only independent Negro structure referred to in the classification of Du Bois about buildings up in Harlem, but he calls this independent effort "dirty and old," but that which has been contributed by white people he refers to in the highest terms. This shows the character of the man—he has absolutely no respect and regard for independent Negro effort but that which is supported by white charity and philanthropy, and why so? Because he himself was educated by charity and kept by philanthropy. He got his education by charity, and now he is occupying a position in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and it is felt that his salary is also paid by the funds that are gathered in from the charity and philanthropy of white people. This "soft carpet" idea is going to be the undoing of W. E. B. Du Bois. He likes too much the luxurious home and soft carpets, and that is why he is naturally attracted to white folks, because they have a lot of this; but if he were in Georgia or Alabama he would now be stepping on the carpets of Paradise; but that is not all of the man, as far as that is concerned. He ridicules the idea that the Universal Negro Improvement Association should hold a social function in Liberty Hall on the 10th of August, 1922, at which certain social honors were bestowed upon a number of colored gentlemen, such as Knighthood and the creation of the Peerage. Social Honors for Negroes In referring to the matter, he says in the article: "Many American Negroes and some others were scandalized by something which they could not regard as a simple child's play. It seemed to them sinister. This enthrancement of a demagogue, a blunt boaster, who with monkey-shines was deliberating the people, and taking their hard-earned dollars; and in high Hells there arose an insistent cry, 'Garvey must go!' Indeed Du Bois was delicately by the creation of a Peerage and Knighthood by Negroes, and in truth the person who is responsible for the creation of such a thing should be, because Du Bois and those who think like him can see and regard it for conferred only by their white masters. If Du Bois was created a Knight Commander of the Bath by the ave advertised it from cover to cover of by some white Potenate, he woy written a book and told us how he was the "Crisis," and he would hich a Potenate, but it was not done that way. recognized above his fellows Negroes, in which Du Bois could see nothing This was an enthronement and the "Garvey must gol" program started in worth while He was the enthronement, because he realized that Gary Harlem immediately Negro Improvement Association were usurping the vey and the Univer to himself as being the highest social dignitary, not right he had arrog to himself as being the highest social dignitary, not only in Harlem throughout the country. Lucus Garvey and His Birth and Du Bois In the tenth paragraph of his article Du Bois has the following to say: "Look note the facts. Marcus Garvey was born on the northern coast of Jamaica in 1887. He was a poor black boy, his father dying in the almshouse. He received a little training in the Church of England Grammar School and then learned the trade of printing, working for years as foreman of printing plant. Then he went to Europe and wandered about England at France working and observing until he finally returned to Jamaica. He found himself facing a stone wall. He was poor, he was black, he had no chance for a university education, he had no likely chance for preferment in any line, but could work as an artisan at small wage for the rest of his life." Now let us consider Marcus Garvey in comparison with Du Bois. W. E. B. Du Bois was born in Great Barrington, Mass., in 1868. Some wealthy white people became interested in him and assisted in his education. They sent him to Fisk University, from Fisk to Harvard, where he graduated as a commencement orator. He raised part of the money for his later education by giving recitals in white summer hotels. Where he was born, that is, in Great Barrington, Mass.—he had early is born with white surroundings. poor whites in his neighborhood, although he was a poor, penniless and humble Negro. As proof of that he wrote the following on the tenth page of his book known as "Dark Water": "I greatly deserved the poor Irish and South Germans who slaved in the mills (that is, the mills of the town in which he was born), and I annexed myself with the rich and well-to-do as my natural companions." Marcus Garvey's father, who was also named Marcus Garvey, was one of the best known men in the parish in which he was born, St. Ann, Jamaica. For a number of years he held prominent positions in the parish and was regarded as one of the most independent black men on the island, owning property that ran into thousands of pounds. Through his own recklessness he lost his property and became poor. His poverty did not in any way affect Marcus Garvey, Jr., in that the mother of the latter assumed the responsibility that the father failed to assume, and he therefore got an early education, not through charity, as did Du Bois, but through the support of a loving mother. Marcus Garvey, Jr., never knew the consideration of a father, because at the time when he was born his father had already lost all he had, and had shifted his obligation to his children to the shoulders of their mother. With the assistance Marcus Garvey got from his mother he educated himself, not only in Jamaica but traveled throughout South and Central America, the West Indies and Europe, where for several years he studied in completing the education that he had already laid the foundation for in his native home. All that was not done for the charity of any one, but by Marcus Garvey himself and the support he got from his mother. While, on the other hand, Du Bois, starting even from the elementary stage of his education up to his graduation from Harvard and his passing through Berlin, got all that through the charity and philanthropy of good white people. Admitting that Marcus Garvey was born poor, he encouraged a hatred for the people of his kind or class, but to the contrary devoted his life to the improvement and higher development of that class within the race which has been struggling under the disadvantage that Du Bois himself portrays in his article. Marcus Garvey was born in 1887; Du Bois was born in 1868. And shows that Du Bois is old enough to be Marcus Garvey's father. But what has happened? With the fifty-five years of Du Bois' life we find him still living on the patronage of good white people, and with the thirty-six years of Marcus Garvey (who was born poor and whose father, according to Du Bois, died in a poor house) he is able to at least pass over the charity of white people and develop an independent program originally financed by himself to the extent of thousands of dollars now taken up by the New peoples themselves. Now, which of the two is poorest, cheaper and in manhood? The older man, who had all these opportunities, would rather be a parasitic living off the good working mother, such as the younger man, who had difficulty all respect to need and short to do his business, though in his later life he constructs a "drover's building" from which he sends out his propaganda on race relations and self-interest. race their real solution for the Negro problem because they are that they would be turned down in their intention.

Now this is the kid problem in the West National Association for the Advance a settlement that we and in America, and they have not been honest got Colored People want us so, that we might act accordingly. This will come out and tell black blood in his veins. This is why he rega Du Bors bewaits the Universal Negro Improvement Association Marcus Garvey and why he calls Marcus Garvey "black and ugly" possible. The meant in Jamaica and the West Indies satires. Unwhile this settlement would satisfy him in America he must realize that and probable colored people in the United States of America do fifteen million settlement; that outside of himself and a halt dozen miles such a of thought, who make up the Executive of the National His school the Advancement of Colored People the majority of Negation for studying him and his solution of the problem.

Deception and Hypocrisy To show the deception and hypocrisy of Du Bois, he pretends in the above-quoted paragraph from his article, as it he were not thoroughly acquainted with the problem in the West Indies, when, in another paragraph, he states the following. "This is the West Indian solution of the Negro problem: "The mulattoes are virtually regarded and treated as whites with the assumption that they will, by continued white intermarriage, bleach out their color as soon as possible. There surface therefore the white Colomals save newcomers, who are not of Negro descent in some more or less remote ancestor. Mulattoes, intermarry, then, largely with the whites, and the so-called disappearance of the color line is the disappearance of the line between the whites and mulattoes and not between the whites and the blacks or even between the mulattoes and the blacks." "Thus the privileged and exploiting group in the West Indies is composed of whites and mulattoes, while the poorly paid and ignorant proletarians are the blacks, forming a peasantry vastly in the majority, but socially, politically and economically helpless and nearly nonexistent. This peasantry, moreover, has been systematically deprived of its natural leadership, because the black boy who showed initiative or who accidentally gave advice to the educated man gained the recognition of the white-mulatto group and might be incorporated with them. Additionally, if he married one of them. Thus his interest and efforts were identified with the mulatto-white group." This is the kind of settlement that Du Bois speaks of, and this is the kind of settlement that he wants in the United States of America. Du Bois, you shall not have it! Garvey Challenges Du Bois Du Bois says that "Garvey had no thorough education and a very lazy idea of the technique of civilization". Du Bois forgets that Garvey has challenged him over a dozen times to intellectual combat, and he has for as many times failed to appear. Garvey will back his education against that of Du Bois at any time in the day from early morning to midnight, and whether he be in the classroom or on the public platform, will make him look like a dead duck on a frozen lake Is Du Bois Educated Du Bois seems to believe that the monopoly of education is acquired by being a graduate of Fisk, Harvard and Berlin. Education is not so much the school that one has passed through, but the use one makes of that which he has learned. If Du Bois' education fits him for no better service than being a lackey for good white people, then it were better that Negroes were not educated. Du Bois forgets that the reason so much noise was made over him and his education was because he was among the first "experiments" made by white people on colored men along the lines of higher education. No one experimented with Marcus Garvey, so no one has to look upon him with surprise that he was able to master the classics and graduate from a university. Du Bois is a surprise and wonder to the good white people who experimented with him, but to us moderns he is just an ordinary intelligent Negro, one of those who does not know what he wants. The Man Who Lies Du Bois is such a bar when it comes to anything relating to the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Black Star Line and Marcus Garvey that we will not consider his attacks on the Black Star Line seriously. He led before in reference to this corporation and had to swallow his vomit. He has led again, and we think a statement is quite enough to dispose of him in this matter. This envious, narrow-minded man has tried in every way to surround the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Marcus Garvey with suspicion. He has been for a long time harping on the membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association as to whether we have millions of members or thousands. He is interested because he wants to know whether these members are all paying dues or not, in that he will become very interested in the financial end of it, as there would be a lot of money available. Du Bois does not know that whether the Universal Negro Improvement Association had money or not he wouldn't have the chance of laying his hands on it, in that there are very few "leaders" that we can trust with a dollar and get the proper change. This is the kind of leadership that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is about to destroy for the building up of that which is self-pacificing; the kind of leadership that will not hate poor people because they are poor, as Du Bois himself tells us he does, but a kind of leadership that will make itself poor and keep itself poor so as to be better able to interpret the poor in their desire for general uplift. He hates the poor. Now, what kind of a leader in he? Negroes are all poor black folk. They are not rich. They are not white; hence they are despised by the great professor.

If there were any among the thousands of people who attended Liberty Hall tonight whose faith in the Universal Negro Improvement Association had created and who believed that religion was stationary because of weight of opposition which time is pressing so heavily they left Liberty Hall tonight convinced that the Universal Improvement Association is as a factor and is firmly enjoined the lines of the American and in the world at large as no other association among Negroes is at the present time, that enthusiasm for the cause is still at its zenith and that the principles for which it stands are so fundamental that no undermining influences can divert the association from the path to freedom and emancipation which it is showing for the race. If ever there was a time in the history of the Negro race when an organization was needed to instill race pride into the minds of Negroes when there are so many disturbing elements as work, training, duty, the race the time is now and the universe Negro impoment Association under the leadership of the Hon. Mat is Carvey and his colleagues is courageously facing the situation in a changing order out of chaos and getting Negroes in all parts of the world unified in thought and action with a common destiny in view—the ultimate entailment of a government of their own on the continent of Africa. How William Sherrell, leader of American Negroes was at his best tonight and delivered an address which for powerful eloquence and oratory will rank anion, any of the best speeches or delivered from the platform of any publ. forum in America. He joined issue with those traitors of the race who sought to impress upon the white America on public that the University. Negro improvement Association was germinating on seeds of hatred toward white people branding their statement a criminal he and deploying the depiction to which they had hung in bringing such a matter to the attention of the public. Declaring that the N I A does not perpetrate hatred against white people Mr Sherrell, however went on to show that if the Negro did hate he was not to blame for it. To justify his statement he recalled what the Negro had done for two hundred and fifty years in contributing to the making of America and how he had tried in every way to cooperate with the white man, but in vain He drew a beautiful word picture of the Negro joining hands with the white man and fighting side by side with him, spitting his blood in every war beginning from Boston Commons on the Revolutionary War at Valley Borgs in the Civil War, at San Juan Hall in the Spanish American War and in the World War of France and Blandera in the late World War, to make the world for Democracy. In spite of all this the Negro was still regenerated, defended, raised and trained and sounded the rights of citizenship and called Mr Sherrell with dramatic effect of black men have got a job of hate whose fault is at the applause which met Mr Sherrell at the end of his wonderful person who was deafening and laced for several minutes. Never before had an audience in liberty Hall been more thrilled on this occasion and at some points of his speech the audience was held so spellbound that beside the speaker's voice not a sound was audible in any part of this great building. Mr Sherrell wound up with a forceful declaration of the principles of the association. The N I A he said knew no turning back, we have settled to make for the Negro a national home, we have started to get freedom and独立发展 an opportunity for the Negro race we have started having the foundation for a mighty Negro Republic and nothing between him and Heil is going to turn one versed Negro Association back. Hon Mary Tarey (followed with a speech that was inspiring forful and logical in defense of the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.

He treated with contempt the theory of the assimilation of the races advocated by Du Bois as the solution of the Negro problem, and the theory of James Weldon Johnson that the problem would be solved through the Negro development in musk, art and literature. With an emphasis that was significant Herman Marcus Garvey said that he would like to see the Negro with a rope around his neck trying to sing himself into the souls of 500 white men who are determined to have him dead. The Negro will continue to sing and pray, but with that he was determined to create the kind of power for himself which would make the world respect him. He issued the warming to Negroes to be up and doing for the purpose of getting a foothold, or they would find that three hundred years the entire world would be extirpated even as the American Indian was exterminated from the continent of North America. In conclusion he urged the four hundred million Negroes of the world to rally around the standard of the Red, the Black and the Green indicating as it did, the longing and yearning of black people throughout the world. Among the announcements made was that of a monster mass meeting to be held at Carnegie Hall on Friday evening, February 23 at which the American public both white and black would be properly informed of the aims and objects of the I L A and to correct the misinformation which had been propagated by the enemies of the association. Following use the preamble. HON. WM. SHERRILL'S SPEECH Mr Sherrill spoke as follows: I am indeed glad to see such a crowded house tonight of enthusiastic, desirous Negro men and women, for it portrays this fact. That the Negro here in Harlem is still anxious about his condition and is still desirous of helping to carry forward the greatest organization that has ever been created among Negroes. I regret very much that I was not at the afternoon meeting, because whenever I miss a meeting at Liberty Hall I feel as though I have missed a link out of my life for that day, but I want this afternoon to hear Mr Kelly Miller speak at the Y M C A. to about 435 bright intelligent young Negro men of Harlem, conforming a race conference for the purpose of bringing all Negro organizations and factions together, among one line of effort and endeavor. And as I listened to Prof Kelly Miller that struck me most was this. That in that auditorium at the Y M C A, crowded with young intelligent, ambitious, aspiring young Negro men, as he pleaded for race unity and race co-operation and race solidarity—as he pointed out the direction in which the race is drifting, as he pointed to the disaster that faces the race if they keep up this constant fighting among themselves, and as I heard those young men cheer time after time, one could readily understand that the Negro in this country is desirous of co-operating in desirous of coming together, is desirous of fostering a program of unity and solidarity, and that the fighting and the kicking and the wrangling that you hear are simply on the part of a few self-appointed leaders who are ambitious to carry forward some of their own petty schemes or to satisfy some of their own selfish desires. The Famous Letter to the U. 8. Attorney General This brings my attention to the letter which was signed by eight Negroes and sent to United States Attorney General Daugherty. For a few minutes tonight I want to call your attention to the first paragraph of this letter. One need only read the first paragraph to find out how low some Negroes in the race can sink. It reads: "As chief law enforcement officer of the nation we wish to call your attention to a hurtful menace to harmonious race relationship. There are in our midst certain Negro criminals and potential murderers both foreign and American-born, who are moved and THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 A Lie of the Most Malicious Kind We know that this statement is not true. We know that this statement is a lo of the most malicious kind, but I want to call your attention to this. Suppose the statement were true: suppose Negroes were tired of the burdens strapped to their backs, suppose Negroes were so disgusted that they had begun to hate it, suppose Negroes had endured Jim Crow laws, suppose Negroes had had the lynchers trapped around their neck so many times until they had begun to hate, suppose the slave was beginning to resent those things, suppose the slave was beginning to hate his market—it the duty of Negroes who are supposed to love their race to report these things? Even if it were true, can you imagine Negroes born and raised in America—can you imagine Negroes who have come in contact with all sorts of oppression—can you imagine Negroes who have the same load that was strapped to the backs of others strapped to there—can you imagine Negroes taking upon themselves to call white folks' attention to the fact that the slave is getting tired—that the slave is organizing to throw off the burden, that the slave is beginning to hate! Can you imagine eight Negroes supposed to be leaders, working out the destiny of a race, sinking to such depths when they signed this letter to Attorney General Daugherty, saying that the Negroates A Denial and a Justification We know it is not go. But we are an organization know that this organza dress does not peripatate hatred against anybody, but, ah, friends! if the Negro does hate I wonder who is to blame? Who Is to Blame? If the Negro has got a lot of bitterness in his heart I wonder who is blame. If the Negro has made every effort to cooperate with his dominant master and yet retains on the same status that he has today, I wonder who is to blame. Has not the Negro tried in every way. Has not the Negro at first given 20 years of unquitted to make this country bloom like a rose? Did he not tuned the moe "it a bridge, the streams"? Did he not clear up the swamps? Did he not make harbor earth give birth to vegetation? Has not the Negro tried to cooperate with his dominant master in an effort to get justice and fair play? Has not the Negro watched from election to election and from year to year, hoping that the next year the next election will bring in better conditions. And has he not seen these hopes dashed to the ground? The Negro's Portion After the War What Negro acting beneath the sound of my son would have thought that after the great war of 1914 the Negro would have continued to have been aggregated, uninched and disframed in some parts of this country? What Negro hopes did not rise to the highest point when this last war was fought? What Negro did not feel that after we had shouldered gums side by side with the white man and died on the battlefields of France that conditions would have changed? Directly after slavery the Negro started immediately cooperating. He started by educating his children thinking that if these children were educated they would be given every right of citizenship. He started by making Christians of his children thinking that if they were Christianized they would be given every advantage of citizenship. Mothers toiled over the washtub and fathers worked hard to put their boys through school, and they came out and found that they were subjecited to the same conditions, they found that they were barred from the same public places, had the same ballot annotated from their hands. But the Negro under those conditions did not lose hope, he still retained a spark of hope, which was fanned into a flame when this last war was fought Answered the Call to War The Negro heard a cry this time a cry that he had never heard before. He heard the nations of the world crying for democracy. He heard the nations of the world saying, "Come, black man and help us make the world safe for democracy." The Frenchman called from the French colonial possessions England called from her --- colonial possessions in the West Indies. America called from Mississippi and Alabama and Georgia. They said, Come, there has arisen a Kaiser who is a destroyer of justice, who is bent upon conquering the world that he may rule with an iron hand all the nations of the world, he is the incarceration of the devil himself, come, black men help us rid the world of this killer! And black men answered the call of the Stars and Stripes, black men answered the call of the Union Jack and black men answered the call of the tricolor of France. They forgot the injustices that England had mistreated out to them, they forgot the atrocities that had been inflicted upon them by the liegians in the Congo, they forgot that America had lynched and burned them. Several Negro prophets said that regardless of what the priest had given to the Negro if they died in the tremens of France in this war times will be better and Negroes believed in their leaders and believed in their dominant masters and heart wife and mother and sweet heart good wife and sailed away when the mighty deep beneath whose eyes woke lurked a deadly marine seaking whom it might destroy, and after a few days of attack, they offered the other side and, after offering up a prayer to God for the protection of men who they left behind they took their treasures and advanced to our enemy's line. They cared not for their lives as they rushed on in the wake of shell fire and the burning of shrapnel. They fought on the fields of France and Flanders, while their folks they had left behind in America was subscribed to War Savings Stamp and Liberty Bonds and their wages and so the warships damaged for admission to the ranks of the Red Cross nurses. A while they were dug up in the grim monster prophets and offer a while they were given an opportunity to make their comeback to the green war. But Negroes fought out that after this war on account of their suffering and sacrifice they would have the Jim Crow law abolished, would have the ballast placed in their hands, would have the right of admission to where they had been excluded. But one day the beleaching cannon ceased to behelf, the guns ceased to roar, victory was on their side and the black man started back, going back to a world made safe by their blood—going back to a democracy—the had bought and paid for, going back to a world they hadrid of a fierce warrior, black men going back to the North Carolina town, going back to the West Indies, black men going back to Mississippi and Alabama and Georgia. But before they even left they discerned the cunning on the part of our masters. Before they even left white men sent one of our supposed to be leading Negroes to the fields of France to tell the Negro his place when he got back here and even on board the transport Negroes had their flags taken away from them and crammed in the storage. And when they returned home they found the same Jim Craw car, they found the same segregation, they hid the same ballot snatched from their hands, and some of them before they even got their uniform from off their backs were strung up in Mississippi and Alabama and Georgia. Whose Fault Is It? If the Negro has got a bit of bitterness in his heart, who o f it is! Is Has not the Negro made every little contribution, and has he not done everything to be or has a condition and the condition of the very one who has away over him? If the Negro贮位, Mr. Pickens—if the Negro does hate, Mr. Owen—if the Negro does hate, Mr. Bagnoll—whose fault is it? Has not the Negro laid down his life in every conflict in which this country has engaged and does he see conditions getting any better? Has he not tried the path and spilled his blood all the way from Boston Commons to somewhere in France? If Old Guild could talk she would tell you that. Whose fault is it? If Old Guild could talk she would tell you that he laid down his life on Boston Commons. Old Guild will tell you that at Valley Pier black men like white men left the bloody prints of their feet on the freezing ceil that they marched up San Juan Hill and as they dashed up the heights of San Juan Hill they sang. There be a hot time on the old town tonight? They dashed across the border into Mexico. Black men have never shot a President of the United States, black men have never mounted the Stars and Stripes, black men have never become traitors, black men have never run in fear, and if black men have got a bit of hate—suppose they have whose fault is it? (Great applause.) Stop Following Tailor Made Leaders It seems though on the part of those who are criticizing—that they think it is a crime for black men to hate a little bit. I want to tell these hypocrites of the race, those traitors of the race, that I have looked the Get an Appetite Your food won't do you good unless you enjoy it.

Over this, the general asserted 600 000 tons of raw materials will be shipped annually from the Niger-products which France today buys in foreign markets at a cost of 5 000 000 000 francs. Aside from its economic value such a railway General Estienne declared would be invaulable from the military point of view. Had it existed during the world war he declared it would have provided the most valuable railroad in all the aided countries. Since South American foodstuffs could have been shipped via Dakar instead of having to venture into a submarine-infested zone.

Another article in the same paper states that the French are developing a system in Morocco. Theae Against the African Program We have before us in America and in the West Indies a large number of Negro who claim to represent the highest intelligence of the race who have no idea that the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is a dream and is impossible; that they have absolutely lost nothing in Africa and are not interested in any way in Africa. While these men have positively declared themselves against any African program on the part of Negro peoples of the world we find that the great European nations namely England, France and Italy have and especially since the late war have utilized every bit of energy on their part toward the exploitation and development of Africa as a new center for the white race. France according to the statement here and which has been discussed long before by the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is desirous of building up in Africa a vast French Empire. The same thing is true of the Italians, as well as the English, to build up in Africa commercial empires, out of which they will extract wealth that will not only rehabilitate destroyed and bankrupt Europe, but out of which they will extract the kind of wealth that will render the white people of the world permanently secure. The statement reveals the fact that France can get out of her colonies in Africa enough raw material to supply our needs of France and save her 5,000,000,000 francs annually, which she will for the same raw materials then from other parts of the world. By the powers of exploitation France will at least 5,000,000,000 francs Tropic Strength the Backbone of Nations Every day knows that the backbone of race or nation is the economic strength of the race or nation. Show me the nation that represents wealth of my kind and I will show you the nation or race that is respected by all mankind. It is admitted, it does not need any sage or great philosopher to tell you that, it does not need a graduate of Harvard to tell you that. Every ordinary student of economics and politics knows that Africa is the richest center in the world at this time. Europe is practically over-exploited and has but very little more to contribute to her own unkeep. Africa has become the center of attraction for exploitation for the rehabilitation of Europe' and the permanent security of the white race of Europe France. England and Italy are determined to exploit Africa for her mineral, coal, iron, copper, gold, diamonds, oil, rubber—for all that Africa is able to produce today; YOUR EDUCATION!

Africa, therefore, becomes the most valuable bit of land in the world at this time, to the extent that French statesmen, Italian statesmen and English statesmen, backed up by their financiers, are making a determined effort to control the 12,000,000 square miles of that continent for the purpose of strengthening their financial position, and in the face of the fact that finance makes a race, that finance makes a nation; in face of the fact that Africa today is the most valuable bit of land in the world, we are told by the so-called intellectuals of our race that we have lost absolutely nothing in Africa. While, on the other hand, we remain in America we remain in the West Indies working for what? Working for an economic opportunity for the purpose of providing ourselves with the wherewithal to face the great competition that confronts all the races and nations of the day. Whilst we are willing and whilst they tell us that we must beg a chance to become mixed in the arranged economic condition of the western world they tell us that we must ignore the great possibilities and great opportunities of Africa that are now to be exploited by those who have already fixed an arrangement under which we struggle and suffer in this western world. Lacking in Thought It shows, therefore, that these men are not thinking; it shows that they absolutely have no conception of things as they are. Africa as everybody knows has been undeveloped for hundreds and hundreds of years. During that period of undevelopment the natives were left alone with all the vast wealth that Africa contains. During that time Europe was regarded as the foremost continent of the world—the richest continent—for all the wealth practically was there until America started to develop this western section of the globe. But in the war Europe destroyed all her wealth; Europe became bank rupt in the war and Europe had to seek new fields of exploitation. They could not go to Asia or they could no go to the western world because, by arrangement already out, it was impossible for them to pass the Japanese who guard on guard in Asia, in could they pass the United States, we stands on guard in the western world through the Monroe doctrine. The only place was Africa, the undeveloped continent. And here we have France desiring to build up in Africa a great commercial empire, Italy desiring to build up in Africa a great commercial empire and England desiring to build "California Fig Syrup" is Child's Best Laxative Hurry Mother!

Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. "COLORED" PSYCHO-ANALYSIS? UNDER the captions, "Who's Who--The Mirrors of Harlem-- Studies in 'Colored' Psycho-Analysis," Floyd J Calvin, an associate editor of the Messenger magazine, is turning the searchlight upon the prominent "cullud" citizens of Harlem Mr Calvin is a very bright, witty and ambitious young man who sometimes wades beyond his depth. He trained his guns upon the literary editor of The Negro World and the editor of the New York Age in the February issue of the Messenger magazine. This is very flattering to the literary editor of The Negro World because the Messenger never goes gunning after small game. And when the Messenger shells a man it is recognition of the fact that he is some pumpkin, is in the big gun class. We don't find any psycho-analysis in Mr. Calvin's article. There is psycho-observation, psycho-description, but no psychological analysis in his youthful attempts at psychologizing. The attempted dissertation indicates that Mr. Calvin has very keen perceptions, a breezy style and an original method of presentation, but that he needs severe training in explanatory psychology and inductive and deductive logic. That is, Mr. Calvin can see and describe splendidly what is on the surface, but cannot discern the forces working unseen beneath the surface. Mr. Calvin characterizes Ferris' "African Abroad" as "two big volumes very little read." Before the World War distracted attention and intellect with the foreign sales there was a steady demand for "The African back bad." Judging from the fact that the book is usually in the hand, some reader when one asks for it in the Harlem library, and judging from the fact that so many white and colored writers are now expressing views and opinions which first saw the light of day when "The African Abroad" first made its bow to the reading public, although few acknowledge their indebtedness, we were under the impression that "The African Abroad" was a much read book. Then Mr. Calvin contradicts himself. He says in one breath that Ferris wrote two big volumes and had the courage to stand against an entire convention, and in the next breath intimates that Ferris is easy going and lacks principle. He intimates that a man can be weak and at the same time can be strong enough to lift a ton. "Rote" Learning va. Originality Then Mr. Calvin proposes to revolutionize modern education He says in conclusion: "Prof. William H. Ferris represents the consequences of 'rote' learning without the balancing force of originality." Now this is something new in educational theory. Mr. Calvin believes that philosophy, psychology and sociology can be mastered as a foreign language is mastered, simply by exercising the memory. What a relief this will be to those students of philosophy who have knitted their brows and scratched their heads in wading through Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason," Kant's "Critique of Practical Reason," Hegel's "Phaenomologie des Geistes," Rieh's "Philosophical Criticism," Lotze's "Microcosmus," Ladd's "Metaphysics," Bradley's "Appearance and Reality" and Royce's "Conception of God." The conclusion of the matter is that Mr. Calvin is talking through his hat—has never read "The African Abroad" or taken an advanced course in philosophy, psychology or sociology in any of the big universities of the East. Plato thought differently from Mr. Calvin. He wrote over the door of his temple of philosophy: "Let no one enter here who has not studied geometry," meaning that one who has not braius enough to master geometry and who had not trained his reasoning faculties in demonstrating mathematical propositions couldn't master his philosophy or follow the dialectical processes of his reasoning. Mr. Calvin's conception of "originality" is on a par with that of a man we once met who was writing a treatise on sociology or anthropology. We asked him, "Have you read this work or that work?" He said, "No, I am not reading any books on the subject because I want to be original." We met another man who said he very rarely read any books because he wanted to be original. These three men revealed indeed in that blissful state of which the poet said, "Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise," and exemplified the saying, "Fools rush in where agels fear to tread." But that was not the course pursued by the men who thought out the Brooklyn Bridge, the tubes under the East and North rivers, the Woolworth Building, the Platium Building, the big locomotives that pull the Twentieth Century Limited and the Empire State Express, the Littania and the Titanic, the Rolls-Royce car, the linotype machine, the telephone, the telegraph, wireless telegraphy, the airplane and the submarine. That was not the course pursued by Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo and Sir Isaac Newton in their epoch-making mathematical and astronomical discoveries. They learned all that their predecessors could teach them about bridge building, engineering, architecture, physics, mathematics, mathematics and astronomy, and either made additions to their knowledge or applied it to practical problems. The greatest philosopher and greatest psychologist of modern times followed the same mode of procedure. Inmanuel Kant of Konigsburg, Germany, was the world's greatest metaphysician, the Copernicus of modern philosophy, the man who revolutionized modern thought. After Jesus had raised him from his dogmatic alumbe he spent twenty-five years in thinking out and seven months in writing his "Critique of Pure Reason." How did he spend those twenty-five years? In dreaming and reverie? No. He critically surveyed and examined the philosophical thinking of the world from the days of Thales to his own, embracing a period of nearly twenty-five centuries. tling camps of the vari has been expended and each other. So it wove Dove of Peace reign for next week We were fortunate in studying under William James of Harvard, who produced the most brilliant, suggestive and original work on psychology the world has yet seen, during the two years that he was preparing his Oxford lectures and that philosophical attitude known as pragmatism. The first year he carefully surveyed Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason" and Lotze's "Microcosmus." The second year he carefully surveyed Bowie's "Philosophy of Theism," Royce's "Conception of God" and Bradley's "Appearance of Reality." We discovered also that he had made a careful study of Wundt and Paulsen of Germany, Hergson of France and Ladd of America. In a word, he was in touch with the development of German, French, Italian, English and American thought in the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and also kept posted regarding Hindu, Japanese and Negro thinkers. Then take Ralph Waldo Emerson, America's representative thinker who preached the doctrine of self reliance and said "Be yourself. Be true to your inner convictions. Don't be an imitation." What sort of a self was Emerson? He was a broad and comprehensive, not a narrow and restricted self. He graduated from Harvard and explored Hindu, Greek, Swedish, German, French, English and American thought, commuting with the Hindu seers, with Plato, Swedenborg, Montagne Goethe and Carlyle, enlarging his mental horizon and the boundaries of his knowledge. Then we must remember that Karl Marx, the founder of modern Socialism, was not an ignorantus. He studied law and philosophy in Berlin and immersed himself in the Hegelian philosophy. Neither was Dr. Edward Wilmot Blyden an ignorantus. Mr. Calvin is a very bright, promising and ambitions young man. He is very clever and has natural ability. He has the making of a journalist and writer. But he is a quintate and not a college graduate. He means well, but doesn't know much. And he needs considerable study before he can be an expert at psychoanalysis or can play the role of critic that Sante Benue, Matthew Arnold, Carlyle or Emerson played. We therefore recommend the following four years' course of study for Mr Calvin. After he has read and digested these twenty five books he will be able successfully to bore in the subsoil of psychoanalysis and psychological criticism. Until he has taken copious draughts of these books we would advise him to content himself with observing and chronicling what he sees on the surface, for which he has natural tastes and aptitudes, rather than to attempt to luxuriate in psychoanalysis and philosophical generalization, where he is like the ass in the house skin that Esop immortalized. FIRST YEAR'S COURSE IN HISTORY, SOCIology AND SCIENCE Hegel's "Philosophy of History," Buckle's "History of Civilization," Wells' "Outline of History," Ferris' "African Abroad," Ward's "Dynamic Sociology," Carl Snyder's "New Conceptions in Science," Carl Snyder's "World Machine." White's "Warfare of Science with Theology" and Kennedy Duncan's "The New Knowledge." SECOND YEAR'S COURSE IN LITERATURE, PSYCHOLOGY AND EDUCATION. Taine's "History of English Literature" Carlyle's "Heroes and Hero Worship." Emerson's "Representative Men." James's "Principles of Psychology," Rosencranz's "Philosophy of Education," Harris's "Psychologic Foundations of Education" and N. M Butler's "Meaning of Education." THIRD YEAR'S COURSE IN PHILOSOPHY. Paulsen's "Introduction to Philosophy," Royce's "Spirit of Modern Philosophy," Ladd's "Philosophy of Religion," Lotze's "Microcosmus." FOURTH YEAR'S COURSE IN PHILOSOPHY—Ladd's "Philosophy of Knowledge," Ladd's "Metaphysics," Royce's "The World and the Individual," Bergson's "Creative Evolution" and Browne's "The Mystery of Space." This list is not a list of the twenty-five greatest books in the world. We would include the Bible, Homer's "Iliad," Homer's "Odyssey," Vergil's "Ænead," Dante's "Inferno," Milton's "Paradise Lost," Goethe's "Faust," Carlyle's "French Revolution," Darwin's "Origin of Species," Spencer's "First Principles of Philosophy," Adam Smith's "Wealth of Nations," Karl Marx's "Das Kapital" and Dumas's "Three Musketeers" in the group. But Mr. Calvin is desirous of becoming a philosopher, a psychologist and a critic, and we have prescribed the intellectual diet and the intellectual regimen best suited for that purpose. We regard Lotze's "Microcosmus" as the greatest of these twenty-five books. We believe that after Mr. Calvin has knotted his brow and scratched his head a few times grasping and comprehending the meaning and significance of some of these books he will be able to write intelligently about "rote" learning and originality. We wish him good luck and gud speed. The literary editor of The Negro World has a forty-page critical analysis of Royce's "Religious Aspect of Philosophy" and "Spirit of Modern Philosophy," in which he takes issue with the celebrated metaphysician on several points. It was written while he was still a student. If Mr. Calvyn thinks that he is intellectually equal to the task of understanding it he is at liberty to inspect the manuscript. But the writer doesn't think that Mr. Calvyn will be able to cope with or tackle the essay at present. After he has lived for three years on the intellectual diet that we have prescribed his mental faculties will be able to absorb, assimulate and digest the contents of that essay. But there is still hope for Mr. Calvyn, because he is young yet; and while he has much to learn he has plenty of time before him. We wish him bon voyage on the intellectual journey on which we have seen him. WERE THE EGYPTIANS NEGROES? THE special cable dispatch from Luxor, Egypt, to the New Evening World for February 6 says of the tomb of Tutankhamen: "It was an almost life size bust of a queen, presumably Akhnaton's daughter, Tutankhamen's wife, exquisitely carved in wood, over which is a thin coating of plaster pasted in a lifelike manner. The face and neck are colored that brownish yellow which is the conventional hue for the feminine skin in Egyptian art and the eyes and curving eyebrows are painted black." The fact that Pharaoh's wife and other women were painted brownish yellow in color, the fact that their hair was somewhat curly and their features were more or less Negroid, making them look like the mulattoes and quadroons to be seen in America and the West Indies, indicates that there was a decided strain of Negro blood in the ancient Egyptians, who were a mixed race, some with one-fourth Negro, others one-half Negro, others three fourths Negro, others seven-eighths Negro. According to the modern view of one drop of Negro blood claiming everything it touches, the Egyptians were Negroes. DEAN MILLER'S SANHEDRIN DEAN KELLY MILLER lectured before the Y. M. C. A. last Sunday on "An All Race Conference." He desires the representatives of varied organizations and agencies of nation-wide aim and purpose to meet in Washington, not to perfect an organization, but for a real conference and heart to heart talk. He said: "Merely to issue a sudden call of the wise ones to meet and deliver fiery orations and adopt healed and lasty resolutions would accomplish nothing." tling camps of the various Negro organizations. Too much energy has been expended and is now expended by Negro leaders in fighting each other. So it would be well to call an armistice and let the Dove of Peace reign for a few months. We will comment further next week DR COUL swept down upon America like a bolt from the blue, propagated his auto-suggestion and then departed for Europe. He said that if you are sick and say "Day by day in every way I am getting better and better" your physical condition will improve. The papers poked a good deal of fun at Dr Coue, but there is a great deal of truth in his doctrine of auto-suggestion. Then, again, he threw light on the question of the will. James showed that motives and desires determine the will. And Ladd said that instead of speaking of the freedom of the will we ought to speak of the freedom of the mind in willing. And now Dr Coue comes along and shows that the imagination is more powerful than he will and powerfully influences the will. But this is nothing but a restatement of the old-fashioned Christian doctrine of regeneration—change a man's thoughts and ideas and you change the man. CORRECTION IN DU BOIS EDITORIAL W. stated in our editorial last week that the Brussels conference was held in 1895. We were a year too early, it was held in 1896. The Brussels conferences on sugar began August 30, 1888, and closed August 28, 1907. The conference to which we referred was held August 1, 1896, instead of 1895, when the bounties offered by Germany and Austria-Hungary were doubled and when France proposed to increase hers correspondingly. Mr Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary, wrote on November 9, 1896, that the importation of cheap bounties fed sugar to British industries might involve the turn of British sugar producing colonies. One of the British commissioners sent to the West Indies in December, 1896, who reported in 1897, "denounced the bounties as the real cause of the utter breakdown of trade and of the grousing distress which all three had witnessed and fully acknowledged." The article in the Uncyclopedia Britannica which tells how the protectionist countries of Europe stimulated the beet sugar industry by bounties on exports is found under Sugar, rather than Brussels. ARE AMERICANS TOO LAZY TO STUDY? AN examination recently held at Lafayette College sheds new light upon the question whether the study of Latin should be continued in the school. For several years many practical men have been advocating the discontinuance of Latin and Greek, and their arguments at first glance seem impressive. They argue that Latin, a dead language, should be supplanted by the study of living languages, that it does nothing to fit the student for practical life, that the time now given to Latin should be put into studying English. This last argument was riddled by the Lafayette College test. Two groups of students, one of which had several years of Latin, and the other had never studied Latin, were the best of English words to define. The list included in equal proportions words of Latin derivation, of Greek, of pure Saxon, which was the original English tongue. The students of Latin showed an overwhelming superiority, not only in words of Latin and Greek origin, but also in those of pure Saxon lineage. Thus the study of Latin had extended their vocabularies to languages unrelated to Latin; had developed in them a sense of language which was lacking in the non-Latin students. If, as the enemies of Latin say, English alone should be studied, one cannot deny that one of the best aims in mastering English is good, hard study of Latin. It is a matter of common observation that men who have studied Latin speak and write better English than those who have not. It is useless to argue that Abraham Lincoln, who never studied Latin, wrote better English than Latin students. Lincoln was an exceptional man and we should not confuse a man's ability with the point at issue. If we could compare our Lincoln with another Lincoln who had had Latin we should have something to go by. To come right down to the root of the question, the objection to Latin comes from laziness. Latin is a hard subject, it makes a student work, and present day students want something easy. Higher mathematics is objected to for the same reason. In these subjects no instructor can do the student's work, the student must wrestle it out himself. This generation has been brought up on motion pictures, which entertain them without making them use their minds as they would have to in reading great books. The whole business shows the softening of the American intellect. Mechanical inventions have already made our bodies soft. What with subways and steam heat and telephones and faucets, we no longer have to walk long distances, or chop wood to build our own fires, or go out and pump hard for water. Now the labor-saving devices are invading the intellectual realm. Having been spared from physical labor, we now wish to escape mental labor, and that wish is at the bottom of the proposal to do away with Latin in the school—The Negro Times. CORRESPONDENCE A VINDICATION OF THE U. N. I. A. Editor Negro World Dear Sir I am seeking through this letter or article, if you will—to convey to the reading public especially to our group, the inspiration that the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its dauntless leader have given to the thoughtful and practical members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association I pay practical because all that is done by the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in a large industrial and commercial way was inspired through the doctrines of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Mr. Editor, the reason for my attempting this article is because of the various attacks by some of the leading Negro papers in the country, which are trying to magnify the seeming failure of some of the business enterprises ventured by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. I notice in the "Cincinnati Champion" as well as the DR. COUE'S AUTO-SUGGESTION "Amsterdam News" and other periodicals, the fact that our laundry is another failure of the Universal Negro Improvement Association's business schemes. I, as one of the loyal members of the greatest Negro movement in the world, wish to inform these so-called newspaper editors that would be Negro leaders that these small enterprises in and around New York that seem to have failed, as they call it, are nothing more than a drop in the bucket of the larger things that the members of the Negro Improvement Association are doing outside of New York and for that matter throughout the country. As, for example, here in Pittsburgh And permit me to say that it was all inspired through the preachment of a lurcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association We have the spectacle of the world today attempting to engulf itself in another military upheaval. Land is the past and that will even cause the Armageddon to be fought. We look today and we are France to collect reparations. Now these idiots, as I am forced to call them, are so superficial that they Feb 6. 1923. never take time to find out what the Universal Iegro Improvement Association and its members throughout the country are doing in a large way, but would rather deal with trivialities for the sole-purpose of prejudicing the public's mind against the movement by pointing out certain failures, as they call them. There are 110 acres of land owned and controlled by the members of the Pittsburgh Division, which land is heavily underlaid with coal and upon which are hogs, cattle, horses, chickens and fruit trees of various kinds. With and fruit trees of various kinds. this property we are able to conti- not only the skepit of our group, but even the white people in section are compelled to commi- spirit of the movement to launch an industrial and commercial war are being sought here not only by tens, telegrams and other means communication but also by long dis- tance telephone for the right to drill for gas on this property, which we own in Fayette county, by some of the leading white concerns in Western Pennsylvania. If some of these empty headed Little Tom and what-not Negroes would follow the doctrines of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the principles as laid down by Garvey instead of trying to alienate Gaines the race would be respected Take too Mr. Editor, this fact that we have here in the City of Pittsburgh one of the most outstanding Negro business men in the coal industry. If B. Sterling one whom the white folks seek daffier information in the mining and operating of coal, He, too, is a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and one determined to do all in his power to put this great organization where it properly belongs. These aren't all the things that I might be in a position to point out to these real ticket journalists, but, suffice it to say, however, that with all the failures, flaws and faults of our leader that they seem to point out we are fired unbelessess with the spirit of liberty, freedom and national independence, instilled into us by this champion of Negro rights and manhood. Business failures if that is a fact doesn't change the fact that the philosophy of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is timely and is all important because "Man can not feel otherwise than he is affected" says C F Volney, "and if a truth he palpable and of importance let us pity him who misconceives it, his punishment will be derived from his blindness." Therefore if all is said and done and we destroy the Black Star Line we will say the Negro factory, the chain stores and laundry and whatever else you may choose to name there is one for coming that it Negro has a cause and a case at all. and no one will bring it to treat but himself. No one can feel like the Negro and we welcome always criticism because criticism can be nothing other than helpful, but we condemn yes, condemn stigmatism, especially from those who should be helping to guide the Negro in this trying time and shape some future policy that will eventually produce the desired product. I saw this, Mr. Editor, with surety and with propriety, that the onleader and editors whom we have at this time that understand the time and period in which we live are Marcus Garvey William H. Ferris and John E. Bruce GEORGE A WESTON Pittsburgh, Pa TO DIAGNE AND HIS KIND Dec 12 12:22 Edward The Negro World: Sir-I am a loyal member of the U N I A. and a constant reader of The Negro World for over two years I have read many articles about Messrs.

These men ought to be more careful and not go blindly, for they will surely fall headlong into the ditch. Then it is that they will utter the oft repeated If I had but known," but then they will be just a bit behind time.

BY ORDER UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION MARCUS GARVEY, President-General By MODGE KIRNON Though I recall having seen a few copies of the Messenger prior to 1918, I usually date my real acquaintance with it in the deeper and truer psychological sense from March, 1919. From that time up to the present the Messenger has become one of my regular periodicals, which is always read with much interest. From the outset I was always impressed with the Messenger's its selection of subject-matter, its style and vigor, its method of presentation and general journalistic tone have always pleased me but above all these considerations, its impression was most effective because of its decided radical fearless and uncompromising manly temper. It seemed to have scorned the contemptuous apologetic and servile spirit which was so characteristic of the old Negro journalism. To me it was reminiscent of the days when the Voice, a weekly papered by Hubert Harrison, spoke for the Negro who had radical inclinations. It stirred my revolutionary impulses in much the same way as when they were first fired by speakers like Emma Goldman and Journals like the Messes and Mother Earth. More and more I was strengthened on the conviction that the Messenger was destined to make some control buttons to the race, a long line of radical thought. Another point from which quite clearly honesty is the most important reality a person must have. It was a radical propaganda. WOMEN!

Broadway Tailors Dress J-129 Chicago journal for the diffusion of a specific radicalism in economic thought. It was somewhat or bodys in its judgment of men and events, that is, they were nearly always measured and judged in accordance to their relationship with a given standardized scheme of thought in much the same manner that orthodox Christians, judge other religions. Of course, this method may be of service for propaganda purposes, but no one will lay claim to it as being scientific. Immeasurable service has been rendered by the Messenger in its emphasis on the economic aspects of the race question and more especially in their more indirect relations. The real import of the economic interpretation of the race problem in its many and varying forms which has now become common thought is to be largely credited to the Messenger for its popularization of that point of view. It also coined and familiarized such terms as New Negro and Me-too-boss-hat-man and Negro". By sharply contrasting their different connotations they were tremendously instrumental towards the growth and enhancement of the new spirit. The Messenger Inconsistent An consistent and perplexing feature of the Messenger is that while it some decision to radicalism and the New Negro it actually utilizes more space in critical and critical comments and structures of Negro characters of what it calls the old crowd, yet strange to say it is not at all keen in its detection and recognition of men of worth and budding achievement of the new spirit and school of thought. Aside from a broad passing mention of comparatively recent date the Messenger failed to recognize J. A. Rogers until Harrison Ferris (the writer) and others who concerning his work Ferris work, "The African Abroad," has never even been mentioned in its pages. Though it is doubtful as to whether the two volumes have ever been read throughout by anyone save the author, yet they contain a great deal of valuable matter on history, education, anthropology and philosophy. Above all, the Messenger has yet to speak of Hubert Harrison and his notable work in behalf of radicalism and general modern thought among Negroes and whites alike. Harrison was the first Negro to introduce liberal and radical ideas in the various departments of learning among Negroes in New York. There is no doubt of the fact that the editors of the Messenger have derived much of educational worth from him. He is a man whose wide and accurate information and critical ability have astonished men of learning of both races. "A. Rogers considers him the most effective Negro thinker of modern thought, yet up to this date he is yet to be recognized by the editors of the Messenger. The Messenger has always shown a provenness toward fancy writing as well as indulgence in intellectual bombast Passing over the Moors incident, which is an instance of the latter, I cite the following taken from the September 1921, issue as another illustration of this charge "We have in store for our readers some veritable treats this winter [1921]. We shall enter discussion in two most interesting fields—domestic relations and medicine. What we shall have to say of marriage, divorce, prostitution and love will be scintillating, whereas our discussion of the fetish of the germ, the drug, vaccination, super-surgery, along with our exposure of the fallacy of most of the M D practise and an explanation of etiology will keep the physicians scratcing their heads." However though over a year has passed, the THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 promised articles are yet forthcoming. RUST OF PHARAOH'S which was specially desi Garveyiam nation for his queen. Nat The editors of the Messenger started some time ago an aggressive campaign against Garvey and Garveyism. Their slogan was "Garveyism must be destroyed!" Since then there have appeared in the Messenger several articles draining with Garvey and the Garvey movement. It is to be regretted that these articles have stamped a most deteriorating effect upon the Messenger. Its hitherto much-lauded journalistic dignity and high standard have been seriously marred by these articles. They breathe hate, malice and ill-will. The best that can be said of them is that they are good examples of chap. tenth-rate abusive journalism. The commonplace abuse and vitupitation which run through them have vitiated the whole career of the Messenger. Randolph's article, "Reply to Marcus Garvey," is a fair specimen. Opposition to Garvey and his teachings could be pursued in a dignified journalistic tone without any fear of being classed as a straddler or compromiser. Dr. Du Bois' titles on Garvey are worthy proofs of this. Owen advocates the deportation of Garvey. Not only is this opposed to Socialist principles, but it is also petty and unmanly His article, "Should Marcus Garvey Be Deported" is a piece of journalistic trash that is entirely unworthy of him. It now appears as if the anti-Garvey propaganda is being extended to an East West Indian propaganda. This is indicative of nothing but an intellectual and moral collapse of the editors of the Messenger. At present there is no doubt of the fact that the Messenger is steadily regressing. Instead of waging a battle and indiscriminate war against carvey, it should take due cognizance of the fact of race consciousness and the general moral effects of carveyism which could be directed into channels quite helpful to the race in its spiritual and economic airnings. It is impossible in this age for any Negro to rise to leadership who ignores or undervalues race consciousness. The editors of the Messenger should also adjust themselves once more to internationalistic principles. In the November 1922 issue they informed us that while everybody is interested in great persons, they were interested in the twelve smallest persons in America. Perhaps this accounts for the non-reognition of Harrison and others. The best that can be said at present for the Messenger is while there is life there is hope. February 1 1923.

The face and neck are colored that brownish yellow which is the conventional hue for the feminine skin in Egyptian art, and the eyes and curving eyebrows are painted black. The arms are intentionally cut off below the shoulders, like those of sculptors' models, and the body, over which is painted a plain white robe fastened at the neck, ends at the waist, the breast being only slightly indicated. The features of the face show that soft, tangorous expression which Akhnaton's artists loved to portray. The lobe of the ear is pierced, as though to receive a jewel. The mouth amiles slightly in a tired, rather bored manner, as though the ennui of existence had become a matter almost for jealot, and the eyes are sleepy and enigmatic The finely chiselled, haughty nostril and clear-cut, full lips give an impression of great dignity, but the beautiful curve of the cheek and a slight suggestion of girlish plumpness under the chin are natural and most entrancing.

BUST OF PHARAOH'S WIFE DISCOVERED IN LUXOR TOMB The Haughty Beauty Painted a Brownish Yellow Color LUXOR Egypt, Feb. 6.—The tomb of Tutankhamen was surrounded by visitors yesterday, when a native appeared at the mouth of the sepulchre carrying one of the most astonishing objects which has yet been brought out of this astonishing tomb. It was an almost life-size bust of a queen, presumably Akhnaton's daughter, Tutankhamen's wife, exquisitely carved in wood, over which is a tin coating of plaster pasted in a life-like manner. On her head she wears a crown. Good Looka Result of Care People Overloved whereon his robes were hung, but actually it is a sculptor's authenticated model of the queen's features, somewhat in the style of those found in the sculptor's studio at Tellelamarna. It bears some unknown significance, such as that of recalling to the Pharaoh's memory in the underworld the beloved features of his girl wife. Among other objects brought out this morning were another chariot body, much decayed and with one wheel decorated with gold, the lid of a wooden, gold-colored casket, a small box, inscribed with Tutukhamken's cartouches, and some gold-colored cenor. 135th Street.

FLORENCE MILLS, BROADWAY'S LEADING NEGRO STAR, WILL APPEAR AT HARLEM'S LEADING THEATRE THIS COMING WEEK BRUCE GRIT'S COLUMN BRUCE GRIT'S COLUMN Colored Harlem will be pleased to know that one who is today at the very top of the theatrical profession and fully appreciates the support given her when from a mite of a girl they gave her intently the applause that lent encouragement and inspiration to her efforts has seen fit to make her last appearance before leaving for a European engagement in this section this week. As the reader will have already supported, we have reference to Miss Florence Milla, one of the most successful and at the same time modest artists today enjoying salvos of applause at the hands of those who have made Broadway the name to be conceived with, not only in America but all over the world. ~ much has been written about Miss Is since she won the hearts of thousands as a member of the Shuffle The name's sportmen of the Caucasian race are not as game as they in print. Mr Dempsey, the great American white champion, having been forced into a corner in the fight game by a gentleman of somewhat dark complexion named Wills, with a punch with which Mr Dempsey is unfamiliar with which the aforesaid dark gentle-ies is willing and anxious to deliver to Mr. Dempsey at any time or place that can be arranged for it. Mr. Dempsey has been out of town taking chumsel and fresh air and has only recently returned with his lungs full of urine, a pair of new spats, several new suits and a willingness to fight anybody with whom his manager can arrange a fight for him. His manager, he says, has charge of the fighting end, while he, Dempsey, does the fighting. The Wills-Dempsey match has for a long time regarded as a certainty, and the we been looking forward to it buying emotions. Now come commissioners with an edict declaring Wills-Dempsey match can be in this city. The edict of its final maybe. Anyhow, it willless made Mr. Dempsey feel appy and given him the oppor-tate announce in the press and to have charged him with in the color line, that he was and willing to fight Wills, but the commissioners vetoed the hit. This very likely saves Dempsey from a black eye, a broken pose many various and assorted bruises pains of the body resulting from unfamiliar Wills punch. It is not difficult to understand the psychology of the action of the fight commissioners, or whatever is the title of the magnates who control the fight in this State. It is a clever ve, and those who are on the oute looking in do not misinterpret it too, with Battling Siki in Europe gland has barred him from fighting that country.

The diplomacy of white champions like Dempsey is shrewd and clever. There never will arise again the color question between white champions and Negro would-be champions. The matter of matching the white hopes will be determined hereafter by the board whose action cannot be reviewed. Great is the white man for ways that are dark and tricks that are plain. Whenever one of the great down town magazines wishes to sell thousands of Copies of a Slur Periodical to Harlem Negroes and out-of-town Negroes, it selects some white man looking for some easy money, or some well-known Negro hunting for more fame, etc., to write a special article about Marcus Garvey and his organization. These articles do not really interest white people, as they have no financial interests in Garvey's enterprises, and less in those whom Garvey represents. So that the labor and brains spilled on Garvey in these articles only create a nine days' wonder and give the able writers a little more fame and the colored brethren an opportunity to admire and applaud him for his success in burning his name on the pages of the Monthly Echo and reading the notes of his swan song. Meanwhile, the colored brethren, especially the intelligentia, buy the magazine, half dozen at once if they are rich enough, and the coins roll into the business manager's office of that magazine like marbles down a hill. Now, what possible interest the readers of any white magazine can have in the affairs of a Negro undertaking which has made mistakes, just as white undertakings have done and worse, is not quite clear to an obtuse person of my limited experience. It may be that when it is done by a colored man, a sort of a report to the donors to some colored organization tending to show up the incompetency of Negroes, and that if white men had directed the business of the organization being criticized in the report, it had not failed, or if the head of the organization criticized had been as learned and vorsaille and business-like as the critic, a different result would have followed.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 Weekly Sermon Weekly Sermon Text. And Micah at the house of Joseph with him in the midst of August 3, 1921. Subject. The house of Joseph at the house of Jesus. I We cannot lust after ourselves from the Last. This fact has an admirable aspect it has also the luminous side. An admitted fact, however, assuredly in We have good illustration in the incident before us. The course of Israel was indeed a new departure. A fresh chronology takes inception and history begins again. All things are become new. Purify in Israel save the past in forever abolished. Not as I look upon the march of the last triumph I say. What does wonder come bear? It has a strange column burden. It carries, as some of the embalmed body, but seeing he has been dead upward of three hundred care more probably the disty bones of Joseph, the ever in honor of Prime Minister of Egypt the immortal Israelite. So even the new history in the very dawning has associated with it the pathetic and prized signs of the part. And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him. This is a truth none of us can afford to forget. In all our exoduses we carry the bones of Joseph with us. We cannot ignore the past. As Dr Punshon expresses it. Part of the past to all the present cleavers." A wonderful thing it is that we can never wholly quit ourselves of the past. How significant it is that as Israel sets forth Canaanward it bears the bones of him who fell asleep more than three centuries before. Consider carefully how this very principle applies in our case. You cannot forget the bones of Joseph, perhaps you do not desire to, perchance you do not need to, but whether or no you cannot. There is a historical past from which we desire never to be severed. We are its heirs. Our temple has amply storied walls and is affluent in storied windows, rightly dight. How much we own to the makers of history who bequeathed us such generous legacies? Thank God for the noble past. If we could cut ourselves off from the holy past we should be paupera. There is a past we long to be dissatisfied from, the evil of history. We have its taint in our blood today. We are fettered today because of the wicked who have lived before us. We come out of Egypt, but the bones are with us. Then the personal past follows us. There is an individual past from which we would on no account be divided. Praise to God for our blessed past! Our past of holy thought, holy feeling, high endeavor, our past of elevating experience. It is with us still. We are better today for being better yesterday. But our past of evil shadows us. Would we could get clear of it! Did you ever read Thomas Hardy's striking picture of agricultural life, "Par From the Madding Crowd"? In it he speaks of a man to whom "memories were an incumbrance". Ah, me! we all have memories that are a sore incumbrance. Oh, if we could destroy the past by drinking of some infinite Lothel! Beeing we all have a painful past—all at least whose consciences are awakened—what is our wisdom? Ever to have recourse to Him who can expunge the guilt of the past "There is no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus." Ever make the most of the present Soon our present will be our past. Oh seize and improve and glorify the fleeting now. Whatever we do let us use the present with telling effect for good. II. The Past Gives Inspiration for Future Experiences. Oft as Israel were distressed or dejected, oft as their faith faltered and their hopes grew dim, oft as they in climbed to say, "We shall perish in the the babbling of the house servant whose reward was either a dress or some discarded finery, if a woman, or if a man, a coat or a pair of old trousers. Des Vernier, a South Carolina colored man, betrayed the leaders of the insurrection started there by Denmark Vesey, by joining them and reporting to his master nightly what was said and planned. His reward was $5 in gold and a frock coat from his master. The white people of the city, after the Negroes in the plot had been punished by either hanging, banishment from the country or flogging, set this colored informer up in the draying business. History has a curious way sometimes of repeating itself. Our white brothel of the press rarely detail or invite Negroes with fat brains and a plethora of words to write the rotten business failures of white organizations that have failed for millions. These tasks are performed by white journalistic surgeons. Still, as the old lady remarked when she saw another kiss a clobbering cow. "There is no accounting for tastes." Marcus Garvey will survive all this kind of propaganda and will be doing his work when the propagandists are forgotten or dead, some of them—Negro Times. LOVE'S GREETING LOVE'S GREETING Accept these lines I send to you With my best wishes true. With duo respect, good day, my dear. Your lips so sweet and face so fair.

If you really knew How I love you. wild take we a herre freah the land of promise when the smoked upon the house of Joseph the were instred and strong the They might will be Joseph be freed we would fresh the glorious land he was sure the he built us carry the house will be When a rebuke to the de pressed laft la the on the pilgrim agreed the house of Joseph We too know that the past gives us inspiration for future experience. We can help from the ever present past for duties often are duties burdened. The path of duty in the way to glory that is frequent in unplorious paths has duty beaten easily monotonous. Work degenerates into labor and later into drudgery. Drudgery is the grayscale of success. But the angel is a white grayscale and his relationship with the environment remote. We need amel the routine of duties all manner of inspiration and here is a type. Remember the past. Recognize what his grayscale others have been and done. God did not fail on fathers and they did not fail God. Take the bones of Joseph with you and all they portend will inspire you am I the duties of the house of your pl grimage. The past inspires us for trials and sorrows. In verse 15 we are told, "I fed the people about. We know what it is to have a roundabout course in life and what trial and sorrow it of an involve. But it surely nerved Israel to look upon that hallowed burden" and by it they received a former faith. What God has done for tired and suffering humanity in the past He will again. The history of the church and biographies of Christians are repaired with inspiration for the chequered experiences of the unknown tomorrow. III. Moses took the bones of Joseph with him." Yet Gods Presence is the Essential Presence The sombre presence of the dead was not the supreme presence among the ler萨ites as they marched to the bounds of Canaan. What other and more potent presence was there? And the Lord went before them. Without that august presence it is vain to have 'the bones of Joseph.' The Lord went before them. He is everything in He with us. He will be to be. Alike in heat of the day and the solemn darkness of the night. He profiles to be with us. Is the Lord among us or not? Whoever fails or leaves us all a well of He with us. Lord it! The presence go not with us, carry us not up home. But Thy presence shall go with us and Thou wilt give us rest.

NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE RECEIVES $10,000 GIFT Steady increase in the forces making for cooperation between the North and white races was emphasized by I. L. L. L. with Wood chairman of the National Urban League at its eleventh annual meeting in the Russell Page foundation Building Wednesday afternoon. He reported that the year 1922 had been the most important in the history of the Urban League movement which started with a small group in New York spending $2500 in 1910 and has grown to a national movement with branches in more than forty cities spending more than $250,000 a year. The greatest hardship to better inter racial relations has been the indifference of the great mass of whites and this indifference has been due largely to the limited knowledge by the whites of Negroes said Mr. Wood. The last few years have shown a new and a grim ant change which has come about through the great migration of Negroes from the South into the industrial centers of the East and Middle West and through the attention which has been brought to interracial relations by the export of Ku Klux activists by the Congress,inal debates on the Iber Anti Lynching Bill, by the public discussion of President Lowell's attempt to scrap one of Hari-sa's most prominent traditions and by similar actions in which the Negroes had taken in the news. These indefensible have made the great civilization of focusing attention on this matter and for every person who prejudice have been fostered, we have had many real enemies. We have accepted the challenge to treat it as of justice and fair play and have become armed to throw their influence with the constructive forces. The result has been an increased interest in and support of the Urban League movement and a like stimulation of the other forces for cooperation such as the Commission on Interval Relations, which is becoming important an influence in the South and the activities of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. As material evidence of this increase of interest, the Urban League announced that four new cities had organized affiliated groups in 1922 and that the income of the national organization had increased from $15 000 to a million of $74 440. Announcement was also made that friends of the late Mrs. Harry Plotz who died in Paris last spring, had raised $10 000 which had been given to the National Urban League for the establishment of the Little Sons Plotz Fund the income from which is to be devoted to the development and training of some Negro man or woman especially fitted for social and civic service in the community." Mrs. Plotz, who was a daughter of Samuel Bache, was an active member of the Urban League Board and a trustee of Fisk University. Irving S. Merrell president of the Merrell-Soule Company of Syracuse and a trustee of Tuskegee Institute and C. C. Spaulding, secretary-treasurer of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, the largest Negro insurance company, were elected to the Executive Board and among those re-elected for a term of three years were Felix Adler, Mrs. Julius Rosenwald, Mrs. Booker T. Washington William G. Wilkox Miss Nannie Burroughs of Washington, and James H. Dillard of Charlottesville Va. The officers, including Mr. Wied, chairman, Dr. Robert R. Moton as vice-chairman, William H. Baldwin as secretary, and A. S. Russell as treasurer, were re-elected The executive secretary of the League Eugene Kinckle Jones, presented his Annual Report showing the establishment of four new branches of the League the establishment of a new monthly magazine "OPPORTUNITY," a journal of Negro life, surveys of the Negroes of Hartford and of the industrial opportunities of the Negroes in Baltimore. Record of the work in local communities was also presented.

U. O. O. F. will celebrate its 79th anniversary by holding its 85th masquerade ball at New Star Casino, 107th street, Tuesday night, February 27th. For more than 50 years this lodge has held masquerade ball, which have been looked forward to with pleasure by the public. This lodge being the second oldest lodge in America, it has numbered among its members some of the most prominent men of the race in New York. Among its charter members may be mentioned Dr J McCuno Smith, who was the first colored physician to practice in New York and was its first presiding officer. Thomas Hamilton, a leading merchant, Patrick H Reason, one of the most celebrated engravers of New York, Thomas Hoffman, Wright Nerman, Wm Penweck, Peter Paul Simmon and many other leading colored men of that day (1844). In later years this lodge has included among its members the leading business and professional men. The committee in charge of this ball are endeavoring to make it one of the greatest and most pleasant in the history of the lodge. If the pressing demand for tickets and boxes is an indication the attendance will be very large. This is not just an ordinary ball, but it is one that was looked forward to by the old New Yorkers from year to year as an event not to be missed. Owing to the war and conditions their prevailing, the masquerade has been omitted for several years. Many visitors are expected from Washington, Boston, Philadelphia, Providence, New Haven and other cities.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 ECHOES FROM AKRQN OHIO, DIVISION 215 I desire to comment on the most excellent work now being done by the Akron division of the U. N. I. A. The work of the division has not been given the publicity it should have received. Therefore I take this opportunity to make known what the division has done and capest to doj. The division is small, but we are proud of the work it has already accomplished in the face of many obstacles. We are all 100 per cent I. N. I. A and have no cowards among us. Every member stands in battle array for the things for which our great leader, Marcus Garvey, contends. We have begun to make the people of the great Rubber tity sit up and take notice of the fact that we are here and here to stay. We are glad to say that we have purchased one of the best situated lots in the city of Akron, coating $12,500. It is located on the corner of Hill and Center Streets, only two minutes' walk from the court house, in the heart of the city. It is wonderful to record that each member gave from $10 to $20 toward the purchase price. We are glad to say that the U. N. A. is the only colored organization in the city that meets in its own hall. Under the leadership of such men as the Hon. Marcus Garvey, R. L. Polton and others of the parent body we feel that we can do anything that men of any other race have done. In the near future we hope to be able to erect a five-story brick building for the Negroes of Akron. All we want our leader to say is we can do it, and if he says we can do it we can. We must do it because Mr Garvey says we can do it. The deal was made by Thomas K. Greene, the best colored lawyer in the city. We desire to thank Mr Greene through the columns of the greatest paper the world has ever known for his donation of $10 to the I. N. I. A. We are hoping to do a great work in 1923. We are going to show our great leader what we can do since he has given us an objective. Mr Garvey has done more for the Negroes of the world in four and a half years than all of the alleged leaders have done in fifty-eight years. We are thankful to the Almighty for a man like Mr Garvey and pray that he may live long and do much untiling the Negroes. And that he will not be called from his labor to his reward until he shall have seen the fruits of his labor namely, the 400 000 000 Negroes of the world standing upon our motherland under the Red, the Black and the Green when he can truly say I have fought a good fight.

Secretary Camaguey Division NEGRO DELEGATES TAKE RICHMOND, VA., BY STORM; DIXIE PAPERS COMMENT U N I A Division 124 held a mass meeting last Monday night, January 21 at which time it presented two of the U N I A delegates who attended the League of Nations Assembly at Geneva, Switzerland, last September. The delegates who spoke here were the Hon William Sherrill and the Hon G. O. Marke of Sierra Leone, W. C. Africa The speakers were inspired and urged to the heights of eloquence by the softerous plaintics and authority of approval. Mr. Sheerall proved himself a master of oratory and capable of taking care of the situation in any forum. Mr. Marke is a diplomat of note having served in a plenipotentiary capacity herefore. He is said to be the very next man to the Hon. Martin Curve. Mr. Samuel H. Green, former president presided (Chaplain J. H. Burk conducted the devotional services after which Mrs. L. P. Johnson recited an original race poem. Musical numbers were rendered by Mineer Annie Jones Gandol Shaw, Ethel Brook and Fannie Ville Lawse. W. F. Branyt the colored pleader, introduced the speakers with well chosen remarks. Mr. Sheerill gave an account of his trip to Geneva v. Paris, and after a detail I account of his experience launched out into a defense of the reasons for Negroes striving to reach racial perfection through self help in economic and social spheres. His plea for the Carvey plan for African redemption was oratorically superb, his peroration at times literally lifting the enthusiastic hearsay from their seats. He said: "No race can get positioned in this world that is not strong enough to hurt somebody." Concerning the Negro inspiration for a home and government and his effort to secure the mandate over the German African colonies, he said: "The Negro felt like writing and he reached for a pen, he felt like reading and he reached for a book, he felt like sailing the bosom of the mighty deep and he reached for a ship, he feels like ruling and is now reaching for a government." Mr. Marke's Address Mr. Marke's address dealt with the mission of the U.N.I.A delegation to the League of Nations. He said they carried a petition asking that the League of Nations grant the U.N.I.A mandatory rights over the former colonies of Germany in Africa, which colonies at present are under the mandate of Great Britain. He outlined the diplomatic procedure necessary for such a venture and gave an outline of the workings of the world's court, with its ramifications of committee procedure. He stated they finally succeeded through one of the signatory powers in setting their petition before the league, and the same will be acted upon next September. Officers of the U. N. I. A., Division 123, Richmond, Va. are H. L. Johnson, president, W. H. Walkins, vice president, Mrs. L. P. Johnson, lady president, Mrs. Ida Scott, lady vice president, W. H. Scott, chairman Trustee Board, William Randall, Jr., chairman Advisory Board, Arthur C. Lewis, executive secretary, Miss Madeline Dahney, recording secretary, W. H. Howard, treasurer. The people of Richmond are looking forward to the early return of the Hon William Sherrill and the Hon G. O Marke, for the impression they made upon the hearts of Richmondians will live forever. May God a kind and well directed incarnation keep them and protect them and send them back again to Richmond. ARTHUR C. LLWIS, Exec. Sec STOMACH TROUBLES ARE DUE TO ACIDITY Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy Relief For Acid Indigestion So-called stomach troubles such as indigestion gas sourness stomach ache and inability to retain food are in probably nine cases out of ten simply evidence that excessive secretion of acid is taking place in the stomach causing the formation of gas and acid indigestion. Gas distends the stomach and causes that full oppressive, burning feeling sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely in the express development or secretion of acid. To stop or prevent this souring of the food contents of the stomach and to neutralise the acid, and make it harmless a teaspoonful of Bisurated Magnesia, a good and effective corrector of acid stomach, should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water after eating or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens the stomach and neutralizes the acidity in a few moments and is a perfectly harmless and inexpensive remedy to use. An antacid, such as Bisurated Magnesia, which can be obtained from any druggist in either powder or tablet form, tablespoons of it may be poured up within the aid of artificial digestives. Magnesia comes in several forms, but it is certain to ask for and take only Bisurated Magnesia, which is especially prepared for the above purpose.

City PHONE HARLEM 2877 THE DEPUTY POTENTATE AND AMERICAN LEADER ADDRESS THE NEWPORT NEWS, VIRGINIA, DIVISION Newport News Division No. 6 L. N. I. A. was honored by a visit from his Highneas the Supreme Deputy and William Bhrill. American leader, on Sunday January 28. These distinguished gentlemen addressed two meetings, and in spite of the fact; that the day was cloudy, the hall was packed to capacity and over 100 were forced to stand. Hon G. O. Marke made an impressive address in relation to the trip of the delegation to Geneva Switzerland and to the diplomatic course that they had to take to cope with the diplomatic of Europe. Hon. William Sherrell was then introduced. He spoke extemporaneously for fifty-five minutes, keeping his hearers appalled. One reply concerned that in opinion Marcusey really has the best brain of the country. Named up with wit and talent soon his dream will become a reality. Mr. Sherrell remained a maiden and objects of the ladder. Negroes in the provement Association and paid that it was stronger than that it had been. He told the hearers that the arrest of Mr. Gates was not surprising to the officer and members of the organization because any time a will step out on the platform of leadership it means arrest, prison sentence and sometimes the galaxy. In such cases the organization becomes stronger. It is then that the hypocritical Negro deserts for they cannot stand by the organization when it is facing its worst trials. Mr. Sherrell said that he has been watching every Negro newspaper since his return from the League of Nations conference in Europe to see what the Negro editors had to say about the delegation. Every one is silent. All that he could see was when Marcos Garvey's trial was proceeding the Negro editors wanted to study the real meaning and use of a newspaper before they entered that field of endeavor. One thing to be admired about the white Associated Press is that it prints the news. The white man will print news pertaining to the Negro whether he likes the Negro or not. Mr. Sherrill said he did not want to see the Negro newspapers die, but that they should change their present policy. Let them live by the patronage of the Negroes. Mr. Sherrill said that while the delegation was in Europe it was extended every courtesy at the hands of statesmen and governments. The delegation went there as gentlemen, behaved as gentlemen and returned as gentlemen. We knew that the enemies of the association were watching and listening for the toughest mistake we might make, so that they could rush into big headlines on the front page of every Negro paper in the country. Therefore we watched our step. Some folks style of survey a dreamer, yes, a dream. Do you really know who dreamers are? Dreamers are the architects of greatness—men who piece the land of unborn days. Mr. Sherrill won the hearts of all his members. He convinced many knockers that the U.N.A is a dynamic force and many said that they will never knock it out. A collection of $74 a taken up.

THE LARGE WORLD U. N. I. A. LEADERS EXPOSE THE FALLACIES OF OTHER SUPPOSED RACE LEADERS Continued from page 10 up in Africa a great number of empi- re, and the Du Bois of America tell us we have lost absolute power in Africa. The Designs on Africa The Designs of Africa Do you know what a country is pen of we follow the advice of a leader ship of certain Negroes. We are going to remain in this Western war until the white man has completed colonized Africa and landed up in Africa a civilization even greater that that we come in contact with in the Western world and in some years from now the Negro will be a second part of an African civilization in that the white man's game is to make Africa the white man's country of the future even as he has designed it make America a white man's country of today. The Position of the U N I A Now what is the position of the Universal Negro Improvement Association? If it is good for France to draw out of Africa, that section that she controls-five billion francs of raw material annually for the enrichment of the French race and the French nation what in the time of God can make it impossible for Negroes to do that for themselves. What are you seeking? You are seeking the same economic security as the Frenchman. The whole thing harms itself down to bread and butter. By your labor you seek that which will double you to live, and if the Frenchman is deprived of taking out of Africa that which will sustain him that is the same thing you want and if you have no better sense than to let the Frenchman have a monopoly on that which is your moral and legal right then indeed we ought to be deprived of it. The question is purely one of economics. You want happiness you want wealth you want comfort. The Frenchman, the Italian, the Englishman want the same things and they will leave no stone unturned to get them. What is your position? The position of the critics of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is that we must allow the Frenchman the Englishman and this Italian to get that happiness first and then whatsoever he can spare he will give to us. That is the argument of men like in DuBok. They do not believe in at least thinking the effort to first get those things for ourselves, and that is where the limit we cannot look toward the colonization of Africa and the development of a government in Africa because those great nations, those great difers with the race leaders who have been advocating the progress of the race in America and other parts of the world. They say: we cannot look toward the colonization of Africa and the development of a government in Africa because those great nations, those great IF RUPTURED TRY THIS FREE Apply It to Any Rupture.

Grant all that you mean, tell me that because they already have that which is its right note that they are not to make an effort or attempt to get it base. That is the main argument that has been presented to us that simply because these people are there even though the right of possession of Africa be long ago we must make no effort to attempt to secure it for ourselves. We are going to set down and allow France to utilize not only the mineral and agricultural resources of Africa but to utilize the man power of Africa for the development of a great French communal empire. The going is to build up that empire but as much through white land but they are going to build up that empire through the black Africa themselves. Now if it is possible for Frenchmen to use black men to add to their glory and strength financially morally and in every way why cannot Negroes use the same material to their own advantage. And that is how the Universal Negro Improvement Association feels. It feels that if France can find that much in Africa to make it worth while to them today we also can find that much out of Africa to make at least the kind of place that we want—the kind of government that we would like where we would be protected in any part of the world. Difference Between U. N. I. A. and Other Leaders The difference between the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the other leaders is that they feel that it is too much trouble; it is too much effort. It is too much energy striking out in a direction of our own, thereby they are satisfied to be a second part of any established system or institution of civilization whether it be that of the white man or any other race. The Universal Negro Improvement Association feels that the spirit of self-reliance and self respect impulse the feeling that whatsoever any other race has done for itself we are capable of doing also for ourselves (Applaud). And the effort is being made now. It is all well that France and Italy have had this great start colonizing Africa, but as I have often said the race is not to the swift it is to those who will endure to the end, and the Universal Negro Improvement Association has given out a program to the world. We are in business—as they have tried to misrepresent us—to create antagonism or hatred in the United States of America, the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is to redeem Africa for the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world. If the French government can find good reason to construct a transcontinental railroad for itself, to build up a central emoile in Africa; if the English can, by dumping millions and millions of pounds on the West Coast to improve the harbors for the accommodation of bigger tonnage ships we also can find reason for developing Africa for the good of the Negro race through the world. Are We Prepared to Do the Work? It is a question of whether we are prepared to do the work that must be done. It is not a child's job. It is a man's job and that is why some of these fellows whirk the responsibility. Can the Race Problem Be Solved by I understand that James Weldon Johnson spoke this afternoon at the Y W C A and he told the 50 or 60 people who listened to him that the race problem is to be solved through art and literature, that we must study music, study art and literature and when that is done the white people will soften their hearts toward us and will accept us on social equality. Weldon Johnson says that we must develop our singing because by the spiritual singing of the race we will sing ourselves into the souls of the white people. I would like to see that Negro with the rope around his neck trying to sing himself into the souls of 500 white men who are terminated to have him dead (Laughter). Every subminded and sensible man knows that that man is playing with the question. There is only one thing that is going to settle the question of race and that is power (Applause) Power the Solution of the Problem I do not care how much money you have, I do not care how much art you know, how you can sing, or how much philosophy you can quote or explain until you get your big guns and explosive gas the world takes no notice of and pays no attention to you. It is for the want of those things that other races are persecuted. It is for want of power that the Jew is driven around the world and the black man is kicked around and spat upon and spurned by everybody. It was not for the want of art and literature that the Japanese was not respected eighty years ago, but it was for the want of big Japanese guns that could fire a little further than the other fellows and when the Japanese invented such guns and brought them into play in the SECRET TROUBLES Write to Grace Gray Do Long.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 Russell Japanese war and the whole world saw it then they changed their minds about the yellow man and the Jew. It is not for the want of art and literature and culture and the rest of it that we are presented as we are because of it were for that James Woolf. James and his colleagues would be called by the President in the White House and they could go into the homes of the United States of America, the world trade and the Palimar Wall in any part of the world. Simple items of what comes to art and music Woolf Jobs can be charged with and for the white face or decorated here. When it is presented to him he can be placed against walls in the world and yet they are the same in any building after them in the Mission-Dixon line. Therefore if it is all of us become like the Jews and Woolf Johnson we will put the situation would not be helped and but if it is of our sons and Mussos that is represented with our work 200 model battleships with about 2,000 points of art and model bodies we would work into the White House even at midnight (Applause). That is the difference between the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. They are talking art and literature and music and we are talking government and big guns, knives, big enough that when pressed to hard arm our cruisers or battleships around Navarah Harbor and a mob is about ten miles out in the country enduring to lunch. A black man that the house or the leathing of them will be the mob knows that somebody is in town (laughter and applause). That is when we are talking about When they start to teach a man in London or in Florida in Verailles in Georgia or in Home you can do all the singing in New York you may, but not even the angels will hear you. When they start to laugh a Negro in one of those places and you fill a shell even around California the whole world hears the tones of the cue. That is what we are talking about. We have been singing and playing and we are in the same old condition. We are going to continue singing and praying, but we are going to do something else, we are going to start to be on fire on the continent of Africa. This thing cannot be done in America. This thing cannot be done in the West Indies because of the disadvantages surrounding us. The only logical place for the black man of America and the West Africa (Applause) The land that no man can legally dispute with the Negro and that is the effort of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this time.

Now we see that it is the solution of the problem and that it is the solution of the problem in the Negro developing nation and physical power worked up by strong in a poor Appalachia. We at the time, we impress the prominent Negro of all over the ground, in the land of the Bias and the Green. The State and Stripes agree to eminent American applause on the Union. I am honored the hope of the United States the Black and the Black and the hope of the long and yearning of four million plant cases throughout the world. If Empire and government is good for France what is to be done in Africa, if empire and government is good for France we must do men, women and children. It is true that France has good blood and I am sure that France has good blood and I am sure that France has good blood and I am sure that sun Borne in 1914, and I trust the Negro will not play the tool as he did in 1914, when Negroes were recruited indiscriminately from the West Indies and Africa and all over this country. When this upheaval comes in Europe 100,000 one black men will stand together instead of fighting under other things when we will stand unitedly behind the Red the Black and the Green and native a way to African freedom and African liberation (Applause). That is the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and look for the object of ever one Poston Diagnoses Chargeter of Obstructionists Hon R K I Poston in his address took to task the man who opposed the L N A whom he characterized as obstruction. Having at previous meetings disposed of Du Boe James Weldon Johnson Pickens Robert Bagwell and Robe Abbott editor of a Chicago Defender, he took for his object brought Houson Cochling Simmons. Mr Poston made a search analysis of the life and career of Mr Simmons starting from his birth in Mississippi training him through his career as a newspaper man, in which capacity he was an obvious failure his love for drink at all times getting the better of him the incident which allowed his being brought into the limelight and heralded by the white newspapers throughout the Southland as one of the great leaders of the country. It was during the war when to M Noble pastor of the Chest- but Street C. M. E. Church, a courageous and public-spirited Negro at a public meeting in Louisville, Ky., told the Negroes just what they should demand as men, and Mr. Simmons, who was present at the meeting, rose and got the attention of the people and began to lambaste and criticize this great man and call him disqualified. From that moment he was played up by the white newspapers, one of the great leaders of the country because he assassinated a man who had been and backbone. Prior to that Mr. Boston and Mr. Simmons practically unboard of from them on he went through the county, making speeches in praise of the black man and making Negroes to be held to them. His messages, said Mr. Boston, are always those of absolute confidence in the ability of the white man to settle our problems by and by. Like Du Bois, he never shot into the spine of Continuing Mr. Poston and I the thing that directed him to Marcus Graves was this. He came saving to the young man that they had a right to be the trusted and urging them to make the demands without any promise. IF U DON'T C CONSULT DR.

FIGUEROA, Editor La Emancipación Industrial y Politica de Nuestra Raza en el Universo Entero es el Lema de Nuestra Orgánización—Los Descontentos y Enemigos de Nuestro Movimiento No Obtendrán la Oportunidad de Intervenir, Interceptando Nuestro Paso de Avance—Un Nuevo Espíritu de Determinación Nos Alienta en la Realización de Nuestros Propósitos Grandes cambios han de operarse como resultado de la actual intranquilidad universal, los cuales han de ser tomados en consideración por afectar directamente nuestra vida como raza, imposición de parte de los que dominan la situación económica y política de las diversas naciones en el universo. Las grandes inteligencias de las otras razas delinean los planes y métodos por medio de los cuales han de dominar v gobierno. Vivimos en un medio ambiente de inconveniencias y en condiciones extremadamente inferiores a nuestro modo de pensar y sentir. Estos grandes intelectuales en el reajuste de sus asuntos, maliciosamente ponen un limite a nuestra raza en sus actividades, convirtiendole en un vasayo de las circunstancias por ella repudiadas, viendonos de ese modo sometidos a servidumbre y esclavitud doguiera fujemos nuestro domicilio. Del sinnúmero de millones de nuestra raza en Africa, en la parte sur y otras regiones de este país, en las Annillas y en Centro y Sur America proviene el grito de emancipación económica y política, demostrando esta pétitud nuestra opresión en los cuatro puntos del universo. La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra esta determinada a que los millones de nuestra raza se vean emancipados de las condiciones del presente. Nuestra organización no esta dispuesta a tolerar por más tiempo la imposición de la política que nuestra raza deba seguir Ambicionamos una libertad que nos proporcione el tomar parte activa en las evoluciones de nuestra propia existencia. La hora se aproxima para que los millones de elementos de nuestra raza se unan con el objeto de concertar sus propios destinos. La organización es una necesidad imperiosa en la realizacion de nuestros ideales. No debemos permitir por mas tiempo que nuestras actividades como pueblo se vean divididas y con un programa fundamental hemos de marchar adelante hasta recuperar nuestros propios derechos. El vasta territorio, los millones de millas cuadradas de nuestra madre patria el Africa, debe ser devuelto a sus huos, la raza debe ser emancipada universalmente y esto solo puede ser adquirido por medio de un esfuerzo cooperativo de parte de todos y cada uno de sus miembros, revestidos con un nuevo espiritu de determinacion. Los diversos pueblos oprimidos tratan en todas partes de aprovecharse de las ventajas que puedan proporcionarles el resultado de los grandes cambios que actualmente se operan en esta época de intranquilidad universal. Las conferencias y asambleas celebradas con el propósito de llegar a un acuerdo político han resultado infructosas y notamos que cada raza y cada nación se prepara con el objeto de conservar y protej su propia integridad. Eupora. Asia y America pueden velar por los intereses de sus respectivas razas v naciones; tiempo es ya de que nuestra raza tome una medida decisiva en pro de los intereses generales del continente africano. En la lucha por la realización de nuestro ideal hemos de hallar oposición, no solamente de parte de los elementos de otras razas sino de parte de nuestros propios hermanos, quienes por causa injustificada atacan nuestro movimiento. Sus ataques aquí, allá y mas allá nos prepararan a fortalecernos con el objeto de combatirlos en franca lucha. Por medio de nuestra determinación, los enemigos del progreso del Negro, los enemigos de nuestra emancipación no han de adelantar un paso en su esfuerzo por destruir el ideal de nuestras esperanzas. Estos elementos de nuestra raza, perniciosos para la sociedad en que viven, no solamente han tratado de influir prejuicio en la opinión pública en contra de nuestra organización, sino que han llevado su propaganda malsana hasta las autoridades federales de esta nación, denunciando ante ellas, a su manera, la labor y objeto de nuestra organización. La práctica es esa política revela claramente el poco respeto que enen a su raza y se deben a su mismos. De nuevo hemos de manifestar a estos traidores de la raza que el Negro conciente, amante de su raza y respetandose a si mismos, esta dispuesto no solamente a levantar su propia raza al nivel de las demas, sino a tomar participación en los asuntos generales de la humanidad, para gran sorpresa de los demagogos: para gran sorpresa de los que con polheza de espíritu, todo lo ven opaco e imposible en esta era de civilización y adelanto. El Negro conciente esta determinado ha convertir su patria no en un sitio donde simplemente pueda existir, sino en una nación donde pueda disfrutar de todos los privilegios, derechos y protección que todo pueblo civilizado reconoce todo ser humano. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 No solamente para el desenvolvimiento de las trascendentes empresas que culminan con la liberación de razas y naciones, sino hasta para la cristalización de las mas cortas aspiraciones, existe la imperiosa obligación del sacrificio y si en la actualidad es mas extenso el número de iniciativas beneficiosas que son burladas por el fracaso que aquellas cuyo triunfo se logra maugurar, no hay que mortificar el entendimiento buscando el origen de la derrota de iniciativas tan ricas en altrusmo, sino atribuirlo a la falta de sacrificios Pero, apesar de la cabalidad con que es entendido lo ante dicho, así como una legión/difusión de genos denodados, cuando una vez emerden su vuelo con el proposito de arrancarle un trunfo al destino, prehieren no haber nacido antes de verse cuvuelos en las redes del fracaso. Así también esta el universo acosado por una plaga de almas mezquimas, cuya unica misión es socavar y diligenciar la babilonización de todos los movimientos que tienta un impulsar su prosperidad Elementos de tanta perversidad, en los casos en que logran ver sus salvares anielos realizados, en vez de levantarse ellos musimos y ha- serse duenos de los trunfos de sus victimas, demostrarlo así alguna civilidad en sus actos, preferen, con la mas satanica sonrisa de conformi- dad, quedar adornulados sobre las rumas de sus adversarios y yacer sin conquistar una victoria plausible, pues su unica doctrina se funda en la sacrilega plegaria de destrucción. La muchedumbre que protesa esa religión de menesosco, la podido hacer la erección de uno de sus exer-cribles tempos aquí en el seno de la patra en que escribo y los fanoticos que lanzan sus zaetas al corazón de la división de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra de esta, lo han querido hacer con tanta obstinación que su propia acertamiento tiene de mazar, que son estos desmayos. Simplemento son agentes que vienen a ex-hortarles su impotencia para luchar en contra de que las más fuertes potencias no pueden menos que admirar. Es sabido que en la Republia Dominicana es muy considerable el número de los partidarios del Garveismo y huelga decir que solo la ignorancia es la causante de la oposición que se le hace a ciertas divisions de dicha organización en el país. Lo peso es que los anatemas con que stuelen amenazar a estas sociedades, son generalmente capitaneados por relementos que nada tienen de que ornuglecerse; elementos que solo ponen en evidencia lo menguado de su entendimiento, como mas de una vez lo ha manifestado desde la tribuna, el ilustre presidente de la division de Sanchez, el señor John Chapmann Pero si en el seno de nuestra sociedad somos retados con afrentas que diligencia nuestro desaliento, ello no hara mas que impulsarnos a eccentuar nuestros sacrificios, para remover y destruir con poderosos impulsos las estériles bovedas del cautiverio moral de Etiopia. Nuestros adversarios saben que no lejano esta el dia en que los pastores de la herega antigarveista tendrán que ser tan inveterados en la práctica de su poca honradez y a costa de la determinación de los cuatrocientos millones de Negros del universo, tendrán que devolverle totalmente a Etiopia lo que Dios ha legado a todas las razas LA LIBERTAD. Ella sera conquistada por el altruismo, sino por medio del sacrificio. ESTABAN VANDERHORST. Sanchez. República Dominicana. Demanda en Contra del Gobernador de Puerto Rico El licenciado José N. Quíñones, por conducto de su apoderado señor R. Rivera Zayas, ha interpuesto el recurso de mandamus, requiriendo se le reponga como fuscal, contra el gobernador Reilly. Depués de hacer una exposición detallada de las razones que le asisten para tal solicitud y la sinrazn de la deposición concluye la netación siguiente. Por todo lo cual, el peticionario al Hon. tribunal suplica, que se siva dictar un auto condicional de mandasm dirigido a los demandados E. Mont. Reily y Juan B. Hukye, gobernador de Puerto Rico y gobernador interino de Puerto Rico respectivamente quienes tienen la autoridad para cumplir lo que ordene el auto ordenandoles reponer immediatamente al peticionario, en el ejercicio de su cargo o en su defecto comparecer en el a exponer las causas que tengan, al alguna tuviesen, para que no se explida un auto de mandasm definitivo ordenandoles reponer en su puesto al peticionario y condenandoles al pago de todos los dafios y perujicions sufridos por el peticionario y todas las costas y desembolos que este plato origine. La incapacidad de Alemania para leer en la mente de otras naciones, tan ampliamente comprobada antes y durante la guerra, evidentemente persiste El editor de "Vorwarts" expresó su asombro por la indiferencia del mundo exterior para con lo que estaba ocurriendo en el Ruhr. Alemania, dice, habia puesto especialmente la esperanza en los Estados Unidos Parece haber pensado que la retirada de las tropas americanas del Rhin indicaba que habian recibido ordenes de marchar sobre Paints. De esa u otra manera se contaba con que los Estados Unidos, así como Inglaterra, demostrarian un repentino y abrumador amor a Alemania y que se resentirian y resistirian a todo desconocimiento de su soberania de parte de Francia. Pero nada de esa ha ocurrido y el quejoso editor de "Vorwarts" se maravilla de que los Estados Unidos puedan mirar con complacencia que le joven república alemania sea victima de la mas grande injusticia. Estas lamentaciones recuerdan el tiempo en que Alemania se manifesto igualmente confundida por que los Estados Unidos no volan a apovar la durante la guerra mundal ni considero al kiser como una delicia de la raña humana. Pero es un error representar a los norteamericanos como endurecidos ante la suerte de Alemania. El toto de la prensa norteamericana una no es de una amnosidad especial contra Alemania sino simplemente la urge a confrontar los duros hechos de la situación real y que haga conocer su determinación de hacer todo lo que esté en su poder para hacer frente a sus obligaciones con Francia. Il gobierno trances acaba de reterer su deseo de entrar en tratos con Alemania: Mr Pointeau la declarado que no rehusara considerar cualquiera oferta procedente de Berlin. Su república alemania se encuentra en peligro, tinto ante el camino abierto de su seguridad. Franca esta dispuesta a celebrar un acuerdo estable, esta dispuesta a garantizararle una moratoria de años o cosa por el estímulo, pero miste en un arreglo definitivo o obligatorio con carácter factorial. Fu vez de maravillarse de la indiferencia de los trajeros, los alemanes serán prudentes si estudan con atención la actitud francesa y la fuerza de la posición de la francia, pactando un arreglo lo más pronto posible. Curado Por Medio de Autosugestión Cone. el famoso mago de la auto-suggestion, tuvo hoy una de las sesiones de mayor emoción desde su llegada a América. El numeroso auditorio que presenciaba sus experiencias con diversos pacientes, comenzaba ya a impacientarse en vista del fracaso de la famosa formula curativa. cuya insistente repetición no lograba efecto alguno en los tempiestres nerviosos de Howard Canter. Varios expectadores comenzaron a sisear como signo de desagrado, menudearon los maullidos y toda clase de ruidos expresivos del disgusto colectivo. El rulido comenzaba a hacerse ensordecer conviertiendo en un escarcho la uagrosa frace, cuando el tullido Otto R Kropf, de Milwaukee, que ha sido transportado a la clínica y colocado junto a Coué, descendido de la plataforma, por sus propios pies, conviertiendo en un trunfo resonante lo que amenazaba, ser aigo mas que un fracaso Protectorado Civil en Marruecos El ministro de estado, señor de Santiago Alba, hizo a los periodistas de Madrid varias declaraciones referentes a la futura conducta que se ha de seguir en Marrucos.

Se dirigio un llamamiento al proletariat francesa para que resista la acción de su gobierno.

THE MOROCCANS AND ALGERIANS ARE NE-GROES BY BLOOD THE MOROCCANS AND ALGERIANS ARE NE-GROES BY BLOOD By Rev JAMES M. WEBB of Chicago The Moroccans and Algerians are quoted by The New York World, "Not Negroes. Prof Franz Bing an an- thorhoe poet at Columbia University, continued in statement that they were not Negroes. Hon Marcus Garvey president-general of the U. I A sons extensively in his weekly greetings in the Negro World, issue of Janu- ary 20 why the statement was made published and confirmed which gives food for thought to the Negro race of the world. As I am the mother of homes and pictures on the origin of the face the statement invokes and interests me. The statement that the Moroccan and Algerian were not Negroes led by saying that the Moroccan and Algerian It in the blood that standardized Negroes and the standard is put down as an outlier of Negro blood which the Moroccan It is not the color of the skin that features on the face that makes a Negro Humana is the father of the Negro Humana is the fourth son of namely, Kush Meglam, Phut and Canaan. From Cush sprang the Ethiopians and the Babylonians (through his son Nimrod), from Mizrama sprang the Egyptians, from Phut sprang the Carthagheans, from Canaan sprang the Canaries. So all of these are Negroes. Out of these offsprings of Ham the first civilization was performed. First on Africa on the River Nile, and on the border of the Mediterranean Sea, and third, on the border of the Libyan River. So the white man played little part in civilization before the third. Why did the white an anthropologist calm the major part when his blood a little represented? This matter has caused me to go to New York in the near future to give some series of lectures on the Negro's true history and show some pictures of the same. The black man and the Jew trade three quarters of the bill's history. The white man has played a very little part in it.
