The Negro World

OF RACE---PUTTING BEGGARS AND MISLEADE Meet Me at CARNEGIE I.ALL, 154 West 57th Street, NEW YORK CITY FRIDAY NIGHT, February 23rd, 10 AT EIGHT O'CLOCK SHARP Hear MARCUS GARVEY in His Greatest The Universal Negro Improvement Association, in its existence of five years, has done more to present the Negro to the world in his true light than all and any of the other movements of the last three hundred years. The world seems to have today a better understanding of the aims and aspirations of the black man than secretofore. Once the impression was created that the Negro was a sycophant, a parasite, a beggar. This impression was created because of the humiliating attitude adopted by our so-called leaders of the past, who, under the guise of race uplifters, would approach our white friends and neighbors and make them believe that the race was composed of the most dejected, uncouth and unapproachable of mankind; that our condition was such as to create us generally a menace to good breeding; culture and civilization. The Doling Out of Gifts to Negro Beggars In the portraying of this pitiable condition the sympathetic white philanthropists would dole out small gifts and sums of money for the so-called promotion of uplift movements. They did this themselves. This is the kind of leade ing the Universal Negro Improvenc this organization steps out, backed by program that says to the world, "The he is not a sycophant, or parasite; he is a and demanding the rights of men." This pro does not coincide with the old-time leaders why these leaders fight us, openly and under cover. Manhood Rights of the Race The Universal Negro Improvement Association for the manhood rights of the race; it asks for a free independent Negro go- siment, to be controlled and de- nated by Negroes. This is quite in contrast to what the leaders said the Negro wanted, "only his food and a pla- to sleep, only to be a good servant to his master." The thrived on this misrepresentation for years, but the Unive- sial Negro Improvement Association is determined to mak it hard and difficult for them to further misrepresent us to the great white race. Want a Square Deal The four hundred million Negroes of the world want a square deal. We do not desire what belongs to someone else; we do not desire to interrupt or interfere with the white man's progress and civilization. All that we desire and demand for ourselves is a place in the world where we can move with freedom unfettered and unholested, wherein we can give to the world a civilization of our own, wherein we can expand ourselves to become a great people, even as others have done and still are doing for themselves. The Eternal Existence of All Races The Universal Negro Improvement Association believes in the eternal existence of all races; whether they be MANHOOD RIGHTS OF RACE DEMANDED FIGHTING FOR A PLACE AMONG MEN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE UNIVERSAL NEGATIVE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION AND OTHER MOVEMENTS G A FUTURE FULL OF ACHIEVEMENT. We yield to the white man the right to own sphere and in his own way, and in like all upon the four hundred million Negroes of support a program of their own by which they to develop by themselves and contribute theirization through themselves. A Secondary Position So long as the Negro forms bureau of the civilization others he is bound on ordinary reason forced into our fore. are or the are; the solution can only the Negro's of his own national exist crein he will d, where he will be rendered do for him is the opportunity that the Universal Negro Im- ment Association seeks for the four hundred millions Supporters Who Would.Help ightful men of all races sympathize with such a task as outlined by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We have as many white supporters who will be able to help us develop such a cause, even as we have had women of our own race; but we have never been able to them for that support, because we felt it inconvenient as a people to at least make the effort first to do so. No One Loves a Beggar loves a beggar who will not at least make an or himself, and that is the position our leaders in—that of beggars. They still desire to give the impression that the Negro at his best is a hopeless child to be nurtured and taken care why the Universal Negro Improvement Asss from the National Association for the Adf Colored People. That organization believes gro can only develop by the intellectual and ership of the benevolent white race. It is for that their executives are all members of the Negro Developing by Himself nting that the race could develop even under the p of the National Association for the Advance- Colored People, there would still be a question of 14 Negro could develop by himself. success of the National Association for the Ad- E I,ALL, 154 West 57th Street HT, February AT EIGHT O'CLOCK SHARP GARVEY in His G vancement of Colored People will never prove the ab of the Negro to develop by himself; but the success of Universal Negro Improvement Association, whose leadership is of its own race, is bound to prove to the world that the Negro has reached the point and place where he can be depended upon to do for himself. If Japan developed under the leadership of a foreign race, the great empire would not be recognized today to the extent it is by the other great powers of the world. It is because Japan has developed by her own distinctiveness that other races and nations great regard and respect to the rising empire of the East. The Negro must prove of what mettle he is made. He must demonstrate his originality and his initiative by building a standard civilization comparable with that of other races. That cannot be successfully accomplished upon ship of an alien people. That cannot be plished within the area of control of other be done by an independent existence. people stimulated with the same feeling and other races of mankind. It is for you, therefore, to get behind the Negro Improvement Association and give it your and financial support. Solidly Support Program Let us as members of the organization and of the race, let us as active Divisions and Chapters, make up our minds to get solidly behind the program for 1923 and put it over. No member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is regarded as being loyal at this time who does not in a financial and moral way get behind the parent body and help it to carry on its campaign against the enemy who is let loose to do all the harm possible. Enemy Within Our Ranks The enemy of our movement is within our own ranks, therefore, it is our duty to first adjust ourselves within the race before we can carry out any other kind of adjustment. Feeling sure that everyone will rally to the standard and give the support that is necessary, with very best wishes I have the honor to be. Your abedient servant, MARCUS GARVEY, President-General. UNIVERSITY NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. NEW YORK CITY, February 21, 1925. All members and Divisions are urgently requested to send in immediately their Annual Assessment Tax to the headquarters of the Parent Body to enable the Executive Council to carry out its program for 1923. All members and Divisions who fail to make the regular report, including the Assessment Tax, will be regarded as being rebellious against the constitution of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. All members should see to it that their officers make their report by questioning same at the membership meetings so that each Division can be secured in its relationship to the great world movement.

N. L. A. is encountering. Mr. Garvey ex- tained, was the inevitable corollary to the attempts that are made by those who fear the influence of the asso- ciation to get a proper understanding of the real aims and objects of the movemen- t. This opposition, however, he declared was anticipated by the leaders of the movement, and that is why they are not moved nor shaken while the storm of attack and criticism was waged around. With sound logic Mr. Garvey pointed out the absolute inefficiency of the attempt to solve the problem of races by a domestic adjustment between the races, as was advocated by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. There can be no such adjustment between a strong and weak race, declared Mr. Garvey, as long as the colored man forms a minority part of a great majority civilization without being able to stand behind his own resources, to long will the question of injustice be perpetuated; so long will the question of denial of constitutional rights confound him. The only adjustment that will lift the race and protect it is that adjustment that gives to the race an independent power and strength which it can invoke at any time in its own protection and in its own behalf. That was the stand which the U. N. I. A. took, and since it was impossible for two races to live side by side where one was in the minority and the other in the majority, the only alternative was for the race which suffered in common throughout the world to come together in one united effort and build up a government sufficiently strong somewhere (and in no more logical a place than Africa) which will render us the protection we will not get by any other kind of adjustment. In conclusion he said that the effort of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was not sentimental or emotional; it is a practical effort on the part of 400,000,000 colored men and women to strike a blow for unity; to bring together and to unite what physical force they have to free themselves from the domination of other races and people. The other speakers were Hon. R. L. Poston and Hon. Vernal J. Williams. Mr. Poston discussed paragraph by graph the infamous letter by the "Eight," pointing out as he many inconsistencies which it contained. od the letter clear-cut commission. We have taken the side that it is better for the Negro to aid today and most opposition that comes from alien races and suffer now the penalty that comes with liberty and freedom than it is to follow the line of least resistance and cater to the other man's wills and wishes and hand down to our posterity the same damnable oppression that we are now suffering. HON. MARCUS GARVEY'S SPEECH Mon. Marcus Garvey spoke as follows: We have reached the point of our organized existence when individuals, rival movements and even governments are feeling the pressure of our activities. That so much is said and so much is written about the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this time is far too positive of the impression, the movement is making on the observant minds of the world. When we started this movement years ago very little notice was taken of us; very little attention was paid to what we said and what we did. But after five years of organized effort we find that not only the ordinary individual speaks of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but that recognized institutions and statemen not only speak, but write of the movement and at a tremendous cost. First Negro Movement to Command Universal Attention Sement in the hir ce in the West that to investigate and then write of their findings and interpretation to these magazines for their conveyance to the world. Since the "World's Work" docens and hundreds of other monthly magazines and weekly journals, as well as daily newspapers, have written about the Universal Negro Improvement Association and our activity. For what reason have these newspapers, these institutions and these great journals paid such large sums of money to eminent journalists to write about this movement? Simply because it is a minute? Simply because it is a passing show? Simply because some of the leaders as they say, appear in robbery. If you think that way you are mistaken. They have paid thousands of dollars in France, in Italy, in England and America to write about the Universal Negro Improvement Association because of the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association a program for the advance of any other program ever introduced by any New organization or individual, for 50 years in the Western World. They have not done much writing about the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; they have not done much writing about the Negro church; they have not done much writing about the Negro in domestic politics, because their program led nowhere in the rearrangement of the organized systems of the world; but the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its program arrest their attention because the program seeks to reorganize an existing system which means a great deal to the established powers of today. Seeks to Emphasize a Race The Universal Negro Improvement Association in its program seeks to emancipate a race and redeem and declare for the freedom of a country—a country that is very much desired by the ruling powers of the world, and because of that they spend thousands and millions of dollars writing about us so that they can have a proper understanding, and get a proper interpretation of the real aims and objects of this movement, and in the rocking of the knowledge of the aims and objects of this movement there springs up a counter-propaganda to distort and disrupt the minds and intentions of those who are behind the program; and in this propaganda to distort and destroy the vision of those who stand behind the movement, called the great question that confronts us at this time, whether we of ourselves are conscious of the fact that this propaganda is to be accepted—that this propaganda is even necessary for the real existence and for the growing and testing of the real world in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. These words lead the movement, are sufficiently conscious of the fact that the things that confront us now in the shape of propaganda, in the shape of propositions are the things that we know would come of the life and work of our association.

A-3787 75¢ Columbia Records New Process Records ung ago the moves of the enemy, and that is why we are not shaken by their actions today. You who follow and you who make up the rank and file of the Universal Negro Improvement Association must realize that the fight for racial existence is the most adrenuous effort of the present century. It is this consciousness that caused the Irishman to fight as tenaciously as he is fighting for the preservation of himself and his homeland; it is that consciousness that causes the Jew through the effort of the Zionist movement to make such a fight-towards the restoration of Palestine. You yourselves must realize that the great opposition that is hurled against us as a people is in no one section, but throughout the world, by your everyday contact with the world. You meet it at your work place; you meet it in the street car; you meet it in the subway; you meet it in every step you make—an organized opposition of the world against races and people who are not strong enough to resist and to hold their own. An Effort for the Survival of a Race The effort of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is only an effort for the survival of this race with which we are identified; the sight of the Universal Negro Improvement Association differs from the agitation of other Negro movements in that we seek a national life, a national existence of our own, as we know it to be the only institution of the great problem it con- sists. When we look in when we in world them, against social injustice, is a fight that we face our relationship as we are no other people who form the main group of the country. If the Nat. Association for the Advancement Colored People should exist for eternity they would have the same fight at the end as they are having now. Because of what? Because of the difference between two peoples who form and make up the civilization of the day. As long as the colored man forms a minority part of a great majority civilization without being able to stand behind his own resources, without being able to stand on his own backings of any kind, so long will the question of injustice be perpetuated; so long will the question of dental of constitutional rights confront him. Those are the things that the Universal Negro Improvement Association realise, and that is why the Universal Negro Improvement Association makes no effort to solve the problem by a domestic adjustment between the race, because there can be no such adjustment; there can be no such adjustment between a strong and a weak race. When the strong desires a thing to make him strong and the weak desires the same thing to become strong there can be no adjustment between the two individuals. So long as there in this proportionate difference between black and white in countries, so long will discrimination between black and white be kept up. There can be no adjustment socially; there can be no adjustment industrially or economically; there can be no adjustment politically except an adjustment that will If You Cray the race—the only adjustment that will protect a race—is that adjustment that gives to that race an independent power and independent strength which puts one call upon and invokes at any time in its own protection and in its own benefit. That is where the Universal Negro Improvement Association differs from all the other organisations in the world. They are endeavoring to create an adjustment between the great race and the strong race living within the cannons of the same country. It is impossible; it has never been so where justice and equity are concerned in all history, and never will be unto eternity. It has always been so in all countries where two races live side by side one in majority numbers and the other in minority numbers, the majority number has always oppressed the minority number, and it is not going to be different in America. A thousand years from now it will not be any different from what it is now. The only alternative as the Universal Negro Improvement Association sees it is for this race of ours, which suffers in common throughout the world, is to come together in one united effort and build up a government sufficiently strong somewhere (and in no more logical a place than Africa) which will render us the protection we will not get by any other kind of adjustment. The Language of the U. N. I. A. The Universal Negro Improvement Association therefore speaks not in the language of the theology and religion; not in the language of social reform, but the Universal Negro Improvement Association speaks in the language of building a government; of building political power and all that goes with it. (Applause). The Bible goes with religion, and light literature goes with social reform, but we are not talking religion; we are not talking social reform; big guns and cannons go with political independence and freedom. Systems of government come with political independence and that is what the Universal Negro Improvement Association is talking about. We are talking about a system of government that will give to Africa and the Negro race the same kind of utilities that the other races and nations use in their government for the protection of their people. We are talking about battleships; we are talking about hundreds of dreadnoughts and hundreds of cruisers; we are talking in terms of mands of aeroplanes; we are about armies of organized is what the Universal Negent A relation is talking ica. ion. No, I to him e solved the problem because made that appeal nearly two ed years ago and up to now efuses to listen. Marcus Gar- all never be able to be an elf. at as Christ; Dutton will never be able to be as eloquent as Christ and the Negro reformers part, present and future will not be as eloquent as the Man Christ, who made the most impassioned appeal to humanity which the World turned down. Therefore, it is logical for us to conclude that no ordinary sentimental appeal to humanity is going to solve this problem: the only appeal you can make is to big guns and destructive gas (Aphelause). The man who will not hear you with the Bible and the Prayer Book will hear you with a good Winchester rifle (Laughter and applause). And that is where we differ from the other organizations as far as the African program is concerned, and that is why Marcel Garvey is not a preacher. If I knew that we could relieve this thing by the Prayer Book and Table I would be a bishop now; but it cannot be solved that way. You cannot touch men's hearts by religion; you touch men's heart by letting him down and letting him feel the blow. The Negro Needs Organized Power The Negro needs organized power and organized strength, and since we cannot have it in America the only logical place for us to have it is Africa. Let me tell DuBois and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that fifty years hence—and I hope I will be alive then, and I want you, therefore, in Liberty Hall to get the difference between the other organizations at the present time and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The Universal is not sentimental, is not emotional; it is a practical effort on the part of 400,000,000 colored men and women to strike a blow for unity; to bring together and to unite what physical force they have to free-themselves from the domination of other races and other peoples. (Applause). In conclusion, he said, that while the enemies are raying all these things against us and trying to tear down we are building and urging ahead, believing that the program can be put over and that some may the flag of the Red, the Black and the Green will be raised on the hilltop of Africa.

Paragraph 34 speaks of a. Socialist judge as saying that the U.N.I.A. is not a very nice thing. That was natural, Mr. Poston said. For a. Socialist to say about the organization. Paragraph 26 said that the association has only 20,000 members all over the world, which means possibly about 6,000 or 8,000 members in the United States, and in another paragraph they call upon the Government to destroy the influence of this association, which they consider a measure in spite of the statement that it consisted of only 6,000 or 8,000 people in the United States. Consistency, the said, meant nothing to the writers of the letter because, when they started out to lie they did not stop to consider that somebody was going to check up what they say, and see the emptiness of it all. The protest itself showed clearly that the writers are conscious of the mighty influence and the mighty numerical strength of the association throughout the country. In paragraph 27 they said that the association is more objectionable than the Ku Klux Klan because it attracts the lower type of people. "I want to know," said Mr. Poston, "if they mean to infer that the men and women who take our people and thorn them at the stake, who frighten them away from the polls to keep them from exercising the franchise, who inflict all sorts of abuses and tortures upon our people are not the low class of people, but are the cultured and refined and high type of people? If so, he added, give me the very lowest type of people. of the UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMATION, who has been most wieldily and the Negro Press by a gang of unscrupulous has decided to address a series of mass SIKI TO BOX AMERICAN PARIS, Feb. 16 — D'Aut密特朗 the manager of Battling Siki will fight one of the best of the American light- weight pit bulls at an early date.

NOTICE The Division No. 112 in Santo Domingo City, Republic of Dominica, of Which When we were at what position they be trained the point of our responsibility by the opposition said that we were to avoid business we constituted the radical element in our social order. They said that we were something skin in America to what the Bovists and the Bolshyists were to the new Russia. That argument, however, was ineffective in retarding the progress of the association, and then they said the association should be avoided because the business enterprises fostered it, but it were not a success. But when the people said "we are a rising race; we are an inexperienced race surrounded by Anglo-Saxon and Caucasian systems of economics and quite naturally we could not be expected in a short time to achieve the highest position in the business world." When they found that the people inside and outside of the movement looked upon these business enterprises as honest attempts in the path of progress—as mighty foundations; on which those who came behind us were going to build, when they found that the people counted these so-called business calamities as signs of a determination to go forward, they said: "We will change our argument" and passed on to what they thought was a new argument. They said the Universal Negro Improvement Association is all right but we object to its leader Garvey." They charged upon the argument; they tried to bring all the charges they thought of and finally they charged him with creating an alliance with the Klim. But the people said that this man who brought the ship so far through storms of poverty, through storms of economic setbacks to a haven and a port and a harbor wholly by commanded the attention of the entire civilized world—if this captain had led the ship thus far they were willing to stay on board and keep him as captain (Applause). They attempted once more to press the argument. They laid the ship was all right but it needed a new captain and a new pilot, and the people responded that the ship was all right the captain was all right and the pilot was all right. The people responded with "if you try to sink the ship the captain will go down and we will go with him." Then, after a those arguments had failed, we saw the enemy in another attempt to carry their native, and that was an attempt to crush the Universal Negro Improvement Association. They wrote a letter to the highest prosecution attorney in the high paying the U. N. L. A must be estimated. After characterizing the whole letter as a tissue of the Mr. Williams' said, because of the lying statements made in the letter, the writers had lost the confidence of the people and could advance nothing to restore their confidence and trust. There is no argument, he said, that they could advance that will arrest the attention of people anywhere in this country or outside. sociation was placed on the defensive side and we would be less then and so soon if we remained silent in this struggle. Most people did not understand the issue. They think it is an issue between the U. N. A. and other racial organizations. That is not it. The issue is clear-out and it is this: whether the Negro people of the world are going to stand on masse and agitate for those things—those ideals of liberty, independence and freedom in order that this generation and the generations to come may be benefited, or whether we are going to remain as scars and pores under open domination? We have taken the soo that it is better for the Negro to stand today and meet opposition that comes from other races and suffer now the penalty that comes with liberty and freedom than it is to follow the line of least resistance and enter to the other man's wills and wishes and hand down to our posterity the same damnable oppression that we are now suffering. There is but one choice and we have made that. We have taken up the cudgel to fight on behalf of the liberty of black men and black women the world over and to talk about Africa until we die. Afraid to Talk About Africa Most Negroes, both were ashamed and afraid to talk about Africa, fearing that they will be scorned and will be the outcast of society. But while they were ashamed and afraid it pained him to think that over there at Luxor tonight Europeans are there digging beneath the sands of the Nile, excavating the treasures of the now extinct Ethiopian empire. They are going to transport to Westminster Abbey in London those treasures of Egypt—these treasures that bespeak the black civilization of earlier days. They are taking from the soil of the mother country the last vestige of a people that gave civilization to the world; they are taking from Africa the things for which black men ought to be proud; the very evidences we have of the integrity of our descent; and yet black men are afraid and ashamed to talk about Africa. The Negro Needs a Revision of Thought What the Negro needs is a revision of thought; we need a resilience and relish of our thoughts and our mental inclinations. What the Negro needs is to think longer in terms of alien civilization; the Negro will have some day, if not voluntarily, by force, to transplant his mind and his heart if needs be to the motherland; he will have to think of Egypt and the Nile as his rightful heritage, and those of us who are waging this campaign tell the people everywhere that the black man's place eventually in this world will be and must be Africa. The peoples of the world are turning their hearts, their minds and their footsteps to their respective habitat. The world is on fire and the day is coming when every man will have to turn his heart toward his own vine and fig tree, and where will the Negro be? He is in the cold now. We are hero because of the white man's tolerance. Where will we be when this tolerance is over and his patience is ended. In conclusion, he said: Let us keep. M. S. S. Y.

People will be coming from all parts to listen to the brilliant speeches that will be made by the great leaders of the movement in defending the rights of the organization against its enemies. The congregation will be made up of white and colored citizens of New York and elsewhere. No one can afford to miss this glorious opportunity of listening to the leaders of the movement upon whom the responsibility is in pursuing the gospel organization to success. The enemies have had their day in misrepresenting the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but on Friday night the organization's position will be set clear to the world. No one can really afford to miss the glorious opportunity of being present. The President-General of the association, Hon. Marcus Garvey, will speak on the subject "THE FUTURE OF THE BLACK AND WHITE RACES THE BUILDING OF A NEGRO NATION." It is expected that this will be his greatest speech in defense of the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. You should come and hear and see. EXCURSION RATES ISSUED A Round Trip of One-and One-half Fare on the Identification Certificate Plan Authorized INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.-From the Sunday School Congress Headquarters-Special-The securing of an exposition is to this city from every section of the United States on account of the Sunday School Congress, which must June 15 to 18 was announced at the Congress headquarters, this city, today by the chairman of the local Congress forces, Dr. B. F. Ferrell, and the secretary, Dr. Charles W. Lewis. This announcement was made on information received from the Sunday School Congress secretary of Nashville, Tenn., in which it was stated that the New England Poster Association at Boston Mass. the Southern Poster Association at Atlanta, Ga.; the Southwestern Poster Association at St. Louis, Mo.; the Trunk Line Passenger Association at New York and the Central Passenger Association at Chicago, Ill., had promulgated these reduced rates on the identification certificates. They stated that the certificates would be furnished to all Congress messengers and dependent members of their families by Henry A. Boyd, the secretary from the Nashville, Tenn., office. The Indianapolis, forces here are celebrating the occasion in a get-together meeting, as it is said here that it vir that one point of the program con- tionously in our minds. We are con- cermed with our concern development here. If a true we are concerned with our immediate environment it is true we are concerned with the things that we contend daily for here and every- where, but we are concerned with something greater than that. We are concerned with the undying program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association—the program of a united, consolidated black race the world over. A united race is the first platform in our program and after we have got that, united face we plan to have that race enter into a great governmental power to dictate the policy of black men the world over. (Applause.) I do not see anything impossible about that; it only takes time, and it after 3,000 years the white man can go back to Africa to restore the glories of lost Ethiopie. I say that in time black men will go back to Africa and restore the governmental power of Ethiopie.

He linked the prohibition amendment with the Fifteenth Amendment, which was proclaimed in 1870 and granted the Negro suffrage, as "two important and law-made influences which now are making and seem likely long to make for lawlessness in American life." The subject of his address was "Law and Lawlessness." He asserted that "methods of Czarist Russia and the Spanish Inquisition" are being used to enforce one provision of law, and said there are "a dozen verboten signs in the United States to every one that Prussia can show." "In form and in fact," he said, "and judged by all the usual tests and standards, these two amendments are part of the organic law and with all the rights and authority which attach thereto. Nevertheless, they are not obeyed by large numbers of highly intelligent and morally sensitive people and there is no likelihood that they ever can be covered, no matter at what expenditure of money or of effort, or at what cost or infringement or of neglect of other equally valid provisions of the same Constitution." "The practical question is not whether the colored man could vote in the Southern States, but whether the American people frankly will face the problem presented by the multilocation throughout a large part of the land of a most important provision of the Constitution of the United States. Revolt is Nation Wide "The situation with regard to the Eighteenth Amendment is even worse, because the revolt against it is not confined to men and women of intelligence and moral sensitivities in one section alone, but is nationwide. It will not do to attempt to alience these persons by abuse or by catch phrases and formulas. "These men and women don't entirely from the grounds, upon which the case for the eighteenth amendment was rested; and they regard its provisions and the penal invasion of their private life and personal conduct." "No one who is familiar with the practical workings of our political system would expect either the fifteenth or the eighteenth amendment to be repealed within measurable time. So far as on can see, therefore, we are up to the alternative of their attempted enforcement by soldiers and police and special agents and detectives and aides, or to their abrogation over a great part of the land by local initiative and common consent. Either alternative is humiliating and degrading." THE PRESS amphlet "TOM' NEGROES" Woman of the Negro Race "famous Letter" to the Corney-General DT DUBOIS AS DARK PEOPLE" GARVEY retail 15 cents.

DEAN·MILLER'S SANHEDRIN PROF. KELLY MILLER, dean of the junior college of Howard University, well and favorably known as a teacher of mathematics and sociology, a lecturer, pamphleteer and author, is desirous of bringing the warring African chieftains together, so that they may settle their grievances, bury the hatchet, smoke the pipe of peace and, while differing in non-essentials, present a united front in voicing the black man's claim to recognition. When we read of a distinguished man of letters and supposed leader of the colored race referring continually in a magazine article to the blackness and peasant origin of another leader and to his followers as peasants, laborers and servants; when we read of eight aspiring Negro leaders, five of whom are connected with newspapers, magazines and organizations which are classified as radical, writing to the Attorney-General of the United States to call the hand of another radical leader and suppress the organization that he leads, we can well recognize the timeliness of Dean Miller's suggestion. At present the Negro leaders are like the disciples of Jesus, who were wrangling over the question as to who should occupy the chief places in heaven, like the Homeric warriors at the seige of Troy, who were quarrelling in their own camp, and like the crusaders around the walls of Jerusalem, when rivalries and jealousies between different kings and princes prevented their devoting their full time and energy to wresting the Holy City from the Saracens. We believe that while Dean Miller's armistice is very much needed at present, that he has a task on his hands which would make Hercules' job of cleaning the Augean stables pale in insignificance. This is the situation that confronts us at present. In ante-bellum days there was a practice known as carrying the news from the kitchen to the big house; that is, some slave would run from the slave's quartiere to the master's mansion and tell him that some slaves were inculcating rebellious thoughts in the minds of other slaves. Now in America we find various Negro leaders fretting because of the attitude of some labor unions toward colored workmen, fretting because of disfranchisement, jimcrowism and lynching in the South, and starting newspapers and forming organizations to protest against the obstacles that impede the black man's progress and render insecure his right to life, liberty and the purpsuit of happiness. But when they go from the kitchen to the big house instead of telling Miss Anne and Marse Charles about the thought and feelings of their brothers and sisters, they tell them "That other crowd of blacks is rising in arms against you; that other crowd of blacks does not represent the better element of the slaves; the other crowd of blacks does not represent the tallest telegraph poles on the Ethiopian line, the biggest pebbles on the African beach and the hottest tomalis rolling down the 'culled' turnpike, but we represent the tallest telegraph poles on the Ethiopian line, the biggest pebbles on the African beach and the hottest tomalis rolling down the 'culled' turnpike." Now that has been more or less characteristic of Negro leaders since the death of Frederick Douglass in December, 1894. Instead of there being one outstanding and recognized leader, there have been a group of powerful feudal lords, barons and chieftains, some with large and others with small following. But the Negro is not wholly to blame for this condition of affairs. Just as in the A. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion churches, black men rise to the bishopric, so if the Negro had been let alone, in the course of time Negro leaders would naturally arise who were real leaders. But the Caucasian friends of the Negro twenty-five years ago did not think that he had brains enough to select his own leaders and, they selected leaders for him, some of whom lacked the intellectual equipment and the personality to command the respect and challenge the admiration of their fellows, and others of whom possessed the required intellectual equipment and the required personality but who were too aristocratic and high toned to sympathize with the masses of their race. And so for twenty-five years the question has been asked and answered in different ways, "Who is the biggest tin can on the African dump?" Dean Kelly Miller's call for a Negro Sanhedrin is nothing new in Negro history. Nearly thirty years ago Mr. J. P. Peaker of New Haven, Conn., formed the State Sumner League of the Nutmeg State. It held great conventions, sent Dr. Jackson as United States Minister, to Cogneer, France, and split on the rock as to whether Mr. J. P. Peaker should remain president or as to whether G. Grant Williams of Hartford, Conn., later editor of the Philadelphia Tribune should be honored with the position. THE AFRO-AMERICAN COUNCIL Twenty-five years ago Bishop Alexander Walters and Editor T. Thomas Fortune appointed a clarion call. And on the last week in September, 1878, a gathering of Negro leaders of every walk of life assembled in Washington, D.C., for a three days' convention. Nearly all of the prominent lawyers, editors and politicians, many of the prominent Indians and divines and some of the foremost educators and busi- many of the race were there. Men who sat in the Congress of the United States and served as Lieutenant-Governors and Reconstruction leader were present. It was a gathering representative of the entire Negro case in America. Within a year Postmaster Baker of Lake City, S. C., had been killed, the Wilmington riot had occurred and President William McKinley had decorated Confederate graves. Excitement was at fever heat. The Afro-American Council lasted about six years and then died a natural death. The clumsy resolutions annually drawn up, the strike for office, the attempt of Negro politicians to exploit it and the attempt of Dr. Booker T. Washington to muffle and muzzle the voice of protest, all contributed to the undoing of the council. OTHER MOVEMENTS Out of the ashes, William Monroe Trotter organized the New England Suffrage League. The idealists and politicians in the organization locked horns. They held a stormy, all-night session in Washington, D. C., in December, 1903, and wrangled over the question as to whether the administration of Colonel Roosevelt should be endorsed. It did not die, but became sick. Then, in the summer of 1905, Dr. Du Bois gathered a group of brainy and manly men and formed the Niagara Movement in Niagara Falls. In September, 1906, they let themselves go at Harper's Ferry. They marched around John Brown's grave and sent out resolutions that impressed the country because of their dignity of thought and beauty of style. The hand that penned "The Souls of Black Folk" probably shaped them. Dr. R. C. Ransom delivered an address which reached the high-water mark of eloquence, an address that had sense as well as sound, that was not only sonorous and resonant, but profound. We were in South Carolina at the time. The Associated Press heralded the convention. The Columbia State devoted a column editorial, taking the Niagara Movement seriously. Great hopes were held out. But in the summer of 1907 the warring gods on Mount Olympus wrangled as to who should be patronesses, at a "Peter's Pumpkin Patch" on Mrs. Ole Bull's lawn; wrangled as to who should be the Massachusetts leader; wrangled as to who should direct things—the editor who advertised and boomed the movement or the writer, whose scholarship lent prestige to the movement, and wrangled over the question as to whether "fully exonerate" carried with it the idea of "reinstatement." It died a natural death in Scal Isle City in the summer of 1908. Then, in the summer of 1909, the N. A. A. A. C. P. was formed. For five years it largely devoted its time, thought and energy in determining "who was who" in the Negro race, determining who were fit to be introduced to eminent Cicasions, determining this Negro's and that Negro's social status and deciding whether he cut his hair, trimmed his beard or wore his clothes in the latest style or whether he entered the room gracefully or dined properly, etc. Then the Equal Rights League and the Universal Negro Improvement Association were organized. The result is that we have a group of powerful clans, with the U. N. L. A. the most powerful; a group of powerful leaders, with Marcus Garvey the most powerful, but no towering figure like Saul, son of Kish, as Frederick Douglass was, commanding the universal homage of his race. If Douglass were living today he would find it very difficult to reign supreme, because there are many more brilliant men of color than there were in his day. We believe that a minority group which is more or less economically dependent upon the majority group, should make as many friends as possible in the majority group. We believe, also, that organizations like the U, N, I, A., which aims to train the Negro in self-reliance, are also needed. The program is very large and big enough for the various organizations, both those under colored and those under white leadership, to function without friction and strife. --- BOOKS ON A DESERT ISLAND LAST week six Princeton professors were asked: If you were to be marooned on a desert island for the rest of your life, what ten books would you choose to take with you? The idea, of course, was to find out which books were considered the most valuable. The six men named about thirty-five in all. Everyone chose Shakespeare as indispensable, which shows how time has hallowed that bard. Four men chose the Bible. It is possible that not all the books chosen represent the professors' preference, for the condition was that they should be cast upon a desert island, thus they might select books which they would never find time to ready anywhere else. In the hope that it might do our readers some good, we append here a list of books which would keep us company on a desert island. Unlike the professors, we cannot keep to the ten. We must name twelve. We chose some that they omitted and omitted some they chose, freely admitting that some we shall leave out are better than some we put in, it is a matter of literary taste. The Bible. It is the greatest piece of literature in the world, combining religion, history, philosophy, poetry, drama, prophecy and the purest English we have ever read. Shakespeare. He is a poet for every mood and emotion, a great sea in which every human feeling and aspiration is set forth in the most poetic language. No other man ever lived who could do so much with words. Lalgrave's Golden Treasury. A collection of the very best English poetry from Chaucer to Browning. Buckle's History of Civilization. This is history written from a purely scientific viewpoint, a study of humanity in its reaction to its climatic and topographical environment. Homer's Iliad and Odyssey. The greatest epics known to man. Their stories of gods and heroes have shaped the thoughts of men for twenty-five centuries, and they are written in verses that roll and thunder like the ocean. Plutarch's Lives. Here the great men of antiquity are portrayed as they really were. Macauley's Essays. Selected because each one of them is a condensation of many volumes of history expressed in masterful English. Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. Considered the most profound of all works of philosophy. We have never read it and do not think we ever shall, for to master it would take several years of hard reading and harder thinking, and we would not spare the time unless we were on a desert island. Herbert Spencer's Principles of Biology. On a desert island we would have time to study the plants and animals of our environment, their function in natural history, and uses, and this book would be a guide. Henry Esmond, by Thackery. The best of English novels. Balzac's Lost Illusion. A marvelous depiction of the splendors and the miseries, the bright side and the seamy side of society, the punishment of weakness and the reward of strength. Monte Cristo, by Dumas. A pure romance, fantastic, enthralling, a little unearthly, a book that can be read as eagerly the tenth time as the first. Such is our list of twelve books. We do not contend that they are the twelve greatest, but they are the twelve that would best console us for being cast away on a desert island.—The Negro Daily Times We grant a man has a right to oppose that which he believes to be wrong; even more, it is his prerogative to oppose that which he knows to be right. But that is not our point. While followers of the Garvey movement are accused of having killed this former leader, nowhere have we read or heard of them having been tried and found guilty of the crime, yet in several newspapers that have come to our desk since the unhappy occurrence, we have read editorials condemning the whole Garvey movement because a follower or followers have been accused of firing the shot that proved fatal to a former leader of the movement. That is the point. That is, thh, thing we charge the white man with doing; holding our whole race responsible because one man of the race is accused of committing some crime or other. Then why should we do it? We are not a Garvey organ, nor do we condone crime, but on the other hand, we believe in "giving the devil his dues" and think every criminal should pay for his criminal acts, but we are not in favor of branding people guilty of committing crime until they are proven guilty by a regularly constituted court of law with proper jurisdiction, and we are most certainly not in favor of condemning a whole institution because a member or member of that institution are accused of committing a crime. —The Portland, Oregon, Advocate. PRESIDENT JONES CALLS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE EVANSTON, Ill. (Special).—A call was issued here today by President Edward P. Jones of the National Baptist Convention, calling the Executive Board to meet at Indianapolis, Ind. June 13-18. He stated today that this was in keeping with precedent set some years ago, holding the executive session in connection with the congress to afford every officer an opportunity to make both meetings. The meeting of the Executive Board summons the officials of the National Baptist Convention, consisting of its president, the secretaries, treasurers, vice-presidents, the chairmen and secretaries of the various boards and the vice-presidents from the sixty or seventy State conventions. In all, it means an added attendance to the congress of between one hundred and fifty and two hundred persons. At this meeting President Jones states that a program will be formulated for the Annual National Baptist Convention that will hold its next session in Forth Worth, Texas. In sondage out the call he has urged upon the Baptists Throughout the Country to make every preparation not only to be present at the executive session but to see that their Sunday schools are represented in the congress. REV. EDWARD P. JONES APPROVES OF INDIANAPOLIS CEVANSTON, Ill.—In a statement issued here Dr. Edward J. Jones puts his stamp & approval upon the selec- THE 24TH INFANTRY So much has been said and written about the Twenty-fourth Infantry since it has been stationed in Fort Benning, Ga., where it was ordered by the War Department, that I do not my duty towards the race, my regiment and commanders to say a few words through your columns to refute the many erroneous and absurd things that have been sold and written which have been instrumental in conveying to the public and especially to my race a false impression of our state in ticorina. The War Department issued the orders that sent us to Georgia. Whether we liked it or not, it is not for us to say our duty was to obey only. Soldiers, I mean soldiers, do not criticize orders. The 25th Infantry has not uttered a word of criticism of the War Department's decision. Some scalawag may have voiced his opinion, but he is only a small percentage in this regiment of disciplined soldiers. During my 23 years as a soldier I have been stationed at many posts, viz. Madison Barracks, New York; Jefferson Barracks, Missouri; Fort Sheridan, Illinois; Presidio of San Francisco, California; Fort Myer, Virginia; Fort D. A. Russell, Wyoming, and foreign service in Cuba and the Philippine Islands and other minor posts. Prejudice and difficulties existed in the communities adjacent to the above posts, so why expect different from the commuting adjutant to Fort Benning, Ga.? We outlived it. They hated to see us come, and they hated to see us go. The article written by Rev. Mr. Byrd and published in the Cleveland Gazette was absolutely without foundation. The reverend has been misinformed. So I take this liberty to try to undo the injustice that has been done my regiment, commanders and all concerned. We are indebted to our educated race leaders for efforts put forth in our interest. We are American soldiers and you are Americans; therefore, we are yours. We are now in Georgia, and have got to work our own salvation out ourselves just the same as we have had to work it out at other places where we have been stationed. Whenever colored soldiers have been ordered the populace did not want them there, but whenever they were ordered away these of Indianapolis, Indiana, on the place he served the most annual Sunday day School Congress. No matter in his statement the hospitality of the citizens of the capital of the Hunger State, Dr. Jensen says: "The Baptists throughout the United States will find at Indianaapolis during the session of the Congress, in June, a reception for which Housers are noted. Dr. Lewis, Morris, Leonard, Young, Parrell, gymour, Hendon, Lillard and others are all strong characters and with them are united congregations whose endeavors are to make strangers welcome. Our city had expected the congress to come here but the choice is a wise one; and my congratulations are extended to the Board upon its wise, selection. Rev. Dr. B. J. Prince and Dr. H. W. Knight are already busy securing rates and accommodation, and from Chicago and vicinity an army of inspired young men and women will come to learn and greet those coming from all quarters of the country." THE FRENCH AT ESSEN The world today has before its eyes one of the most dramatic scenes in history. That is the presence of a dominating French force at Essen. The significance of this has been little appreciated. It arises from what Essen has meant for two-thirds of a century to Germany, and also to France: strength and victory to the one, disaster to the other. For it was in Essen that the list of Germany was mailed. There were constructed the engines of war which defeated the French armies and bombarded Paris in the "Terrible Year," and which in the World War battered into dust the master forts of Brialmont, hammered Rheims and the unconquerable Verdun into ruins, bombarded Paris again from afar, and came peripherly near to striking down civilization, itself and the freedom of the world. Sixty years ago Atlanta was the army, the army—the machine shop of the Confederacy. That and vastly more has been seen to militant Germany. That is the circumstance which invests with so much dramatic significance the occupation of the place by a French army. French soldiery marching in triumph past the statues of William II, Bismarck and Motte and assuming control of the Krupp foundries and machine shop—imagination can picture no more striking scene. We should do it to grave injustice, however, were we to overlook the transformation which has been effected in the purport of Essen and the unique errand of the invading army. Military in gulse and in potentiality, the French occupation in civilian and pacific in its immediate purpose, which treaty of peace, and under that treaty Essen must no longer stand for the production of the engineering of war, but of the appliances of peaceful industry. If Essen's new mission be made permanent and be accepted by the German people, the present occupation of the place by polls in horizon blue may betoken more real good for both nations concerned than any temporary humiliation for the one and triumph for the other—New York Tribune. the War Department has invariably been flooded with letters and petitions urging that the order be revoked. This shows that the 21st Infantry will eventually work its way into the hearts and confidence of her Georgia neighbors. Someone has spoken about the disarming of the regiment. Why do you into this? I am sure you know nothing of the War Department's policy or plan, or the orders of the commanders here. We are not disgusted by any means as some people have said. The United States does not have disgusted soldiers in the service, but duties here are just as honorable as any other soldier's in this camp or elsewhere. A soldier's duty is to obey orders. If we are ordered to dig ditches and carry the order out it is just as honorable as if ordered on the firing line and carrying the order out. When ever a soldier becomes disgraced as you call it, or his conduct and habits are such as to render him unfit for the service, he is dishonorably discharged by orders, so by this you may note that we have not been disgraced nor dishonored; in fact, it is the reverse. We should feel proud of being a member of one of the most important posts in the country. Let's wake up and be nice. Don't expect every day to be smooth and peaceful. When we come in contact with other people don't expect to be idolized. Stand up, have courage and contend for that which is right. We should not expect any more. Don't expect to receive any more, consideration than is due you. Don't go around with a slip on your shoulder thinking the world is against you, because friends when you least expect are working for your interest. Once there were three men in jail. Late one night a mob came after two of them. The third man recognized one in the mob and greeted him by calling his name. So they took him along also. His tongue cost him his life. So, friends, since we are here in Georgia, why not leave us alone. The 24th Infantry is not being molested. Everybody is trying to extend a helping hand to us. The light is getting brighter and brighter each day. We are here to make another record for ourselves. Our bain here will add another page. the history of the Negro man. You must help us to stay here in peace and Larmony, by talking about and lauding the good deeds we do. By the help of the Almighty, we are going to make good. So, comrades, watch and wait and take the chip off your shoulders. C. W. GREENE. Sergent, 416th Infantry. to little genuinely that can philosophical writing in the English language. The Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Celtic people have expressed themselves in much noble poetry, and in political institutions of the greatest value and importance, but their positive contributions to constructive philosophical thinking have been meager. Of writers in English, during the last decades of the nineteenth century the two Cairns, the two Wallaces, Green and Harris, stand almost alone in their ability to reach really exceptional heights in the task of philosophic criticism and interpretation. They have all enjoyed the advantages of what is—so conspicuously lacking in most contemporary writing on philosophy, namely, broad and deep philosophical scholarship. After the human race has been at work on its chief problem for thousands of years the man who ignores all that has been accomplished and is consumed with an ambition to be original, is pretty certain to end by being simply queer.

The result to us is as fatal as two broken Hindenburg line was to Germany. This rupture expresses itself unquestionably in two schools of thought, namely, the one advocated by the N. A. A. C. P. and the other by the U. N. F. A. The two rival organizations are engaged in a bitter controversy. The fight is being waged at such a white heat that the lenders of each organization have become temporarily insane. So much so that each has foolishly violated every law of propriety and decey. They have descended from the lofty planes of caftal leadership to the bottomless depths of degradation. They are engaged in a mud silencing contest of the ugliest sort, have lost sight of issues and are maligning characters each is denying the other the right of free speech, one of the basic fundamentals upon which this government was established. Having fired their own groups with their nefarious conduct is not eagerness; like the old antebellum Negro, they have carried it to the white man. The most reliable as well as the most unreliable white magazines and Ballies are filled with this "bunk." One organization is accusing the other of being too white, while the other is accused of being too black. Stop this "tommyrot." If you are right, for God's sake observe the rules of saliva. Stop fouling by hitting below the belt. Because you are drunk, don't think that the whole republic is. The N. A. A. C. P., which advocated a national program, was defeated in its efforts, to portray the Dyer Anti-Lynching Hall. It accused the white, majority of its defeat. It recommends a concerted punch at the enemy in the next election. Can't you see that this outlaw method of conduct is dispatting the punch? The U. N. L. A., which advocates an international program, was defeated in many of its projects. Along with its own it acquired the antagonistic whites. Can't you see that the whites who defeated the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill were the same whites, who defeated the Black Star Line? Can't you both see that you are losing memberships because of this "punk"? "Cut it!" Put on the brake! Direct your energies along constructive lines. If your cause is a righteous one it will win over the unrighteous. Dame long enough to listen to Mr. Grinke. "I see sure that right will conquer. And evil will find its doom. The cause of right. Though subdued by night. Will break from the strongest temp." Now, what does all the "caveman stuff" mean, anyway? Is it a challenge to modern leadership? Does it mean that the young trained Negro who knows how to differ and still retain his poise is called to the field of action? If not, then "Who shall decide when doctors disagree?" If America is to be made safe for democracy and Africa is to be redeemed we must learn to disagree in order to agree.—Ulysses Simpson Poston, In National Star, NATIONAL STAR FEATURES DEBATE AND RECEPTION A debate aid reception was held in Renaissance Casino on Friday, February 9.

Holman: I truly hope that some poor orphan girl, homelife, and friendship, will be imbued by the conduct, daily-routine, ambition and integrity of the one girl in this story and I pray that every girl will be warned by the untruthfulness, disobedience and fall of the other. Ever since Eva, man, like Adam, has fallen a victim to woman's gulls, and ever since Adam, as Eve corrupted the earth, so woman has corrupted her children unto the third and fourth generations. Likewise, ever since Jessebell, woman has painted hot face and fallen lower and lower, generation by generation. A corrupt tree can not bring forth good fruit, nor can a good tree bring forth corrupt fruit. This is also true with women. When once she has violated the law of nature and the law of her God, whether it be kept a secret throughout her days, or whether the mark of sin is so obvious that it can be seen by the world at large, this woman's children must suffer. And how they suffer is too obvious to amplify. For how many are there who have not heard ill remarks made concerning such innocent children? Very few girls, even in this enlightened age, when the world should not only be at its height of integrity and education, but at the height of virility and Christianity as well know that when once their madly virtuous is wretched, plucked in its bloom it dies like a plucked flower under the scorching rays of the moon-day sun.

IMPORTANT NOTICE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION MARCUS GARVEY, President-General Only altright years out of childhood days, thoughtful, penitent, conscientious and yet none too affable is the one girl beautiful little Miss Ida Smith. Her mother died about three years ago. She knows nothing of her father. But her mother, in her lifetime, led such a spotless life before this thoughtful little girl that it was destined to tide the girl, over the angry tides of life which are ever and anon threatening to crush her beneath their relentless waves. Upon her mother's death Little Ida, left penniless, had to quit public school, from which she would have graduated that year, and go into the kitchen. But her resolution to finish her education is unahaken, for she is a contest for the New West Magazine. For 2,000 subscribers this corporation will put her through any school she wants to go to. Ida has very nearly "played the line." She shows more "get-up" than any other girl of her race in the town. Supported, and with their parents and friends, they "simply graduate from high school, go home and sit down and hold their hands. What useless bags! On the other hand, Ida never goes to a dance. She shuns young men, she fears their perfidy. She never powders or paints her face. "Powder or paint my face? No indeed! That is the last thing Jezebel did, and the dogs ate her. I simply use soap, says beautiful little Ida. And she is always clean and tidy. She continues, "I know everybody thinks me very common, but that is all right. I shall need my money when I'm in school, to buy little things. Things have gone hard with me since—Oh! If I only had the chances other girls have! I am only a little girl fighting alone in a big hard world. But I will win!" Ion Hindmana words are good: "Life is a great wrestling match, it is a mental and physical struggle. We often get falls and go to the mat, but it is up to us whether we stay down or not." I went on: "Now is the time for me to lay the foundation for my future. Other women of my race are being great things, and I will not lag behind. Ih determined that my future shall be all sunshine. My future days all morning. If only mother had—" Word failed her, and she sobbed. As the old saying is, "I shall call no name, therefore I shall have to bear no blame." But the other girl in question is an altogether different type of girl from Ila. A high school graduate with parents and friends. All that the heart of a well-to-do could wish, yet she lies to her parents, palms and mothers her face, slips on to frolics, battered, bloody, figurative and wretchedly make love with a young man who is not worth the salt that goes into his bread. Now she is the mother of twins. The wretch is gone, and I will add from Shakespeare: He dicked from her her good name; I kissed her of that which did not en- "He filched from her her good name; Raised her of that which did not entrench him. Will make her poor indeed." Iowa, my little doves, of these serpents, why responds they are. They will sting you, leave with you their poisonous incurable venom and flee whether they knowest not.

How often have we admired and cared the men and women who glided easily through life, admired by everyone on account of their handsome hair and neat appearance. Perhaps some such attractive handsome person has fallen into affection and grief or man while stood helpless to present. Or perhaps the good looks and snappy appearance of some fellow without half your brains enabled him to get the job which should have been yours. Good Looks Result of Care Did you ever stop to think that people are not born with beautiful hair? Good looking hair is simply the result of a little care. If you want to succeed in modern life MUST LOOK your best. Don't hide your light under a bushel. For many years expert scientists have been experimenting for a preparation which will make the hair soft, long, and wavy which will not turn the hair red no matter how often it is used and which will do the work in a few minutes without the use of hot combs, fuss or bother. The result of all this experimentation is ZURA KNOCK. People Overinvolved A large stock of Zura Kinkout was laid in when its manufacturers put it in the market, but even the most intricate could not anticipate or figure out what an overwhelming response. In an incredibly short time the entire supply of Zura Kinkout was gone. It disappeared like magic. The Zura offices looked like a beehive and were. For Sale A Chicago, Illinois. The B. & G.

SUBTLE ARTICLE CRITICIZING U. N. I. A. ANSWERED BY LADY PRESIDENT OF THE OAKLAND DIVISION The following article appeared on the front page of the California Voice in its issue, dated January 26: Mrs. Milam, Writes on Assassination of Dr. Eason To the Editor and Readers of the California Voice. Dear Sir, Will you allow me space in your valuable paper to voice my sentiments against the Garveyites. In glancing over your paper, Mr. Editor, I saw where a Garveyite shot an Americanite, and it shocked my spiritual soul and touched that Golden key that unlocked that bright and shining door above, that showers her children with wisdom unknown to man. Where did Mr. Garvey come from? Who sent him? Did my living God send him? Was Moses ever guilty of murdering or attempting to murder any of his followers? What did Moses do when God threatened to wipe out Israel? Did not Moses pray to God to save them? Did not Moses share persecution with them? Did not God choose Moses from his own people there in Egypt to lead Israel from Egypt to the promised land? Did God choose anyone from a foreign land? No, he chose a man that was born a slave there in Egypt. Moses was familiar with the king, with the country and conditions. God clothed Moses in spiritual wisdom. Who clothes-Marcus Garvey? Carnal wisdom will enslave a man or people. Spiritual wisdom will set him free. It was the carnal wisdom that captured our forefathers on the shores of Africa and bound them on the old Dutch vessel and rocked them into slavery. It was alright. God suffered it to be.

The day has come that justice is sounding her supreme gavel. That means for the Garveyites to take that concealed weapon and bury it in old mother earth and cease her folly. The carnal mind or wisdom enslaved is fast until she enslaves her own self. The black and white Americanite is alright. God has got the proposition, who can take it out of his hand. He handles all creeds and all colors. He will handle the African proposition through a black and white Americanite. Don't mind Marcus Gurray at all. he is dismissed from the service. We have black Americanites who will be abt: to handle the earth, and lead us any place. If God wants us to go back to Africa. He will send us an American leader and we will follow. The black and white Americanite we know him. We have been here with him for over 300 years. We have worked for him, we have fought for him and we fought him, and we love him, and we will follow no one else but black and white Americans, and when we are separated it will be by the hand of one who said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Light." I pray that the black Americans will not let the Garveyite separate them from their supreme engagement above and plunge them into an everlasting destruction, then it will be too late for us. But the moon will sail on in her wedding veil. MRS. MARIA ISAAC MILAM. Letter Addressed to Editor Resenting This Attack Oakland, Cal., Jan. 28, 1922. Mr. E. Marshall. Dear Sir: According to the principles of your paper, "No good cause should lack a champion" and "No evil thrive unopposed." I therefore claim the right to answer the letter of Mrs. Maria Isaac Milam, and urge that you show good sportmanship by printing this reply. In the first place, the American system of jurisprudence is based upon the assumption that all are innocent until proved guilty; furthermore, "that every man is entitled to be tried before a jury of his peers before the pronouncement of his sentence. That is the main reason why we Negroas object to the lynchings of the South by those who, without duo examination into the facts, take an accused Negro and hang him to a limb of a tree, roast him, and otherwise mutilate him. I wish to call to your attention the fact that this letter exhibits in its last analysis that same spirit of injustice. We have here in Oakland clippings from the Louisiana papers reporting the news as they found it, yet in none of them does the white man say that the two men arrested for the crime had orine does not prove guilt. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is not an organization that stands for radicalism and murderous tendencies, and if one of our members is found guilty of the same we would most certainly condemn such actions unreservedly. I am led to think that the writer of the foregoing article must have been joking when she sent it. If so, I must say that it is a very poor joke. That a woman of my race should say in this day and age that when our forefathers were captured on the shores of Africa and bound on the old Dutch vessel and rocked into slavery, that "it was all right: God suffered it to be to show a distinction between the two races," is indeed a shame. Dr. Du Bois or Dr. Moton would not say anything like that for publication. To quote from the Bible is to handle a double-edged sword, but I seem to remember that, in the first chapter of Genesis, God said: "Let us make man in our own image, after our likeness; and let him have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the fowl of the air, over the cattle and everything that creepeth upon the earth." A little farther on he said: "He fruitful, multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it." I do not see where the loving Father said or did anything to show any distinction between races, but, so far as I have read, He is no respecter of person, but upholds justice, mercy, and right. I would say to Sister Millam, even as Christ said to Paul on His way down to Mamascus "Sau, Saul, why persecutest thou Me?" If we reason, from the birthplace of a man, it would be just as reasonable and logical for us Negroes to refuse. to follow Jesus Christ, simply because He was born a Jew! What does it matter where a man comes from—if he brings the light and hope to an oppressed or down-trodden race? The Negro needs to be saved physically and spiritually in this world, as well as in the hereafter; and it is undeniably true that his body is burned and lynched, segregated and Jim-crowed . . . and for anyone to say that we love the spirit moving the hand, that deals that sort of stuff to our people—is rank treason to the race. Replying to, the question as to whether God sent Marcus Garvey, the 11th verse of James I, says, "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of Lights, with whom there is no variability, neither shadow of turning." He who comes bringing hope from lynching, Jim Crowish and segregation to any race, bringeth, indeed, a gift from God. Complete freedom to improve our race industrially, socially, educationally and politically under our own vine and fig tree in a free and independent Africa is the only hope and light to this race of ours. A government founded that will guarantee the protection of Negroes everywhere is our only salvation; and to question whether God had inspired Marcus Garvey to stand unfinishingly and fight for such because is ridiculous. Conceding that he was not so inspired, I would still stand for those principles because I know they are right, and no thinking Negro can help but agree with me. Yes, we have worked for him and have fought for him. Last New Year's Day in Rossowood, Fla., one of his mobs attempted to enter the home of one of our race who had harbored a brother accused of having committed a crime; then, in a picture published in the Literary Digest, all that remains in the town of your brother and mine is scattered here and there twisted scraps of steel, hearing resuscitation to bodies, mute evidences of mob violence. We fought for him, you. In the Congress of the land, the daily papers noted in the last part of the year just passed that when a senator was speaking still, toward our race, your brother and mine, whose injuries will forever bear evidence of the fight made for Democracy, clothed in that same uniform in which he fought; rose to ask a question in defense of his home—was he locked down and told that it mattered not how many uniforms he wore. We fought for him year. Your brother and mine was laundered on demandation from overseas before he could get the uniform off his back. All these things we have done, and all these things have happened to us. We have appealed to the higher, new making body in the land for relief, and have been turned down a la Dyer antitrue laughing bit. When my heart was in despair after reading how your sister and mine were hung by the heels to the limb of a tree, her body ripped open, her baby yet unborn falling to the ground was crushed by the heel of him for whom we fought! there cometh Marus Garvey saying "Never mind. Negroes. Africa is over there—ours by right of birth and of God, let us prepare a home where we can have peace of mind and complete freedom of body." Now, because he comes from the West Indies, I shall not listen and follow. When Marcus Garvey succeeded in placing before the League of Nations our claims, and owing to the influence of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, caused Great Britain, who held a mandatory control over German South Africa, to abolish slavery in that territory—we should not follow him?

The absence of Ginger juice defies the ability to dehydrate and cool tears, causing the digestible symptoms which every comminous suffer knows so well. Artificial digestants are not needed with large acids and may do well burn. The treatment does not do the job and needs to go from any druggent to a few minutes of Uranated Magnesium and take a tensiveful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of stomach acid and pain.

He said that all the leading diplomats of the world know Hon. Marcus Garvey, and recognize that he is a great man; while some Negroes say that he is nobody. He said that it is the Negro himself who is keeping himself back; that it is the Negro that has carried the race to destruction; that villainous Negroes encourage other Negroes to put their money in their banks, but do nothing to relieve the sufferings of the race. That any time a Negro gets so rich that he thinks he is a white man, then we cannot use him; that the U. N. I. A. is preparing to make Africa a colored man's country. * That the time has come when the Negro should love his race. That Negroes should see the sufferings of their boys, and come together as one man, let us pray, and go to our Motherland, Africa.* * That Negroes are the most dependent and begging people in the world.

Gilson, pastor, on Friday evening, January 26, and most currently ad- ressed the audience, leaving no stone turned to enlighten the people. This meeting was staged by Mr. G. A. Hollman, president of Division No. 114. The pastor of this church did not show up at all and the meeting was delayed, awaiting his coming, which did not mature. There were several members added to the association, however. On Sunday afternoon, January 28, a meeting was held at Zion I. M. E. Church, Johnston street, Itev, C. Itoe, pastor.

We are also pleased by the gratification in which these honorable gentlemen have given to the race at their first speaking at the conference. We are also proud of the glad tidings they have brought to us. The move that the U. N. L.

Hoping, dear sir, that at our coning convention, when the election of a delegation for the League of Nations takes place, that these honorable gentlemen will bring us better new, so that this dark race of ours will have their place in the sun.

Many members have grown lukewarm or cold, evidently from the unpleasant rumors and maladministration of some of the divisions in these parts. Nevertheless, we have been plodding, and with the dawn of 1923 we are trying to revive the U. N. L. A. spirit, and already there are indications of marked improvement. On December 21 last the division held its members' social, to which were invited the officers of the Red Tank Star Lodge and the St. Patrick's Social, both colored organizations, co-operating influences for good in this domain. This function was well handled by the committee in charge and proved a credit to the division. During the function the "Flood Will Tree" was laden with presents and gifts which the members and friends brought for one another. Refreshments were lavishly served, after which Mr. Neely, secretary of the Paralso Club House, stripped the tree and handed out the gifts, which were all wrapped and labeled by the donors, after which he (Mr. Neely) gave a beautiful address, expressing his pleasure at being present and helping in such a function, handling the good work being done by this division and promising to render whatever assistance he could at any time possible. One or two of our officers, after trying to play "Peter" with the association, were forced to resign officers or quit and yield their places to faithful U. N. L. A. & A. C. L. Workers during 1922. We regret very much the resignation of our esteemed and devoted chaplain, Mr. T. S. Baugh, where dutiful compelled him to take a course. Mrs. L. Holder is now lady president; Mrs. Z.

Wallace, our High Commissioner, having a week at home in Chicago, stepped into his home division, Chicago Division No. 23, on Sunday afternoon, and delivered one of the most wonderful, profound and enlightening addresses that have been delivered here for some time. The membership and large audience were simply taken by storm, and the enthusiasm ran to a very high mark. Then again on Wednesday night at Old Fellows Hall he joined in a debate on the subject, "Resolved. The Negro has a permanent future home in America." Hon. H. W. Kibby president of the division, spoke in the affirmative. Mr. Wallace took the negative, in which he clearly showed that both by prophecy and condition of environment, the Negro has no permanent future home in America. There were no double left in the minds of the great audience assembled as to the truthfulness of the negative. The Chicago Division, under the presidency of the M. H. W. Kirby and the co-operation of our Honorable Commissioner Wallace, is taking on new life and bids fair to become a contestant with New York for the convention of 1824. The open declaration favorable to our great chief, the Right Honorable Marquis Garvey, by one of our Chicago papers, is credited largely to the work of M. Wallace, who seems to be always on the go with all classes of people, and the useful work done by him in the interest of the U. N. L. A. cannot be fully estimated nor appreciated.

Nihamos de niloño en cliertos diarios y revistas articulas en contra de nuestras actividades como organización, producto de los enemigos de nuestra organización, elementos de nuestra propia raza, quien por el mero hepho de tener, un poco clara la piel que cubre un alma negra, mirán con desprecio al hermano de tez mas oscura y fratan de destruir con su politica de intrigas, los poderosos cimientos plantados por el Negro progresista del presente, sobre los cuales ha de eregirse el gran edificio de la libertad de nuestra raza. Algo semejante a esto se trata de llevar a cabo por Francia e Inglaterra. El fracaso de las negociaciones con Turquia ha sido como un aviso para el gobierno francés. Comprende que buscar acuerdos pos separado con Turquia hubiera sido como, jugar una carta equivocada. El gobierno inglés comprende que la política de Lloyd George de apoyar a Grecia era un lamentable error. M. Poincaré dijo en la camara francesa que la entente anglo-francesa sólo podría subsistir mientras cada uno de los pales conservara en ciertas circunstancias una completa libertad de acción. Pero la acontezimiento han demostrado que Francia e Inglaterra deben mantenerse una al lado de la otra en el problema de Oriente o separarse por completo. La cooperación internacional está tomando un gran impetu en ambos hemisferios. La intención de estos enemigos de sí mismo es detener a su propia raza en el camino del progreso, detestando la aceptación y confianza que nuestro movimiento ha obtenido entre los elementos concientes de la raza negra, con manifestaciones como los artículos a que hacemos referencia, los cuales ponen de relieve su política malsana. Las ideas generosas y progresistas de cierto número de elementos de nuestra raza iniciaron el mas sólo de todos los movimientos en pro de la unificación y progreso general del Negro, constituyendo una organización con el objeto de poner en práctica un programa sablamente preparado de antemano. En el corto periodo de seis años, época de su iniciación, nuestro movimiento ha esparcido su influencia por el universo entero. Francia Revoca la Descalificacion de Sikl Como resultado de la práctica eficaz de dichas ideas, vemos actualmente a la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra concientemente organizada en Norte; Centro y Sur America, en las Antillas, en Australia y en Africa; vemos que millones de elementos de nuestra raza, bajo su influencia y protección, profesan una nuevo fe y abrigan una nueva esperanza; vemos que el sentimiento progresista del Negro evoluciona rápidamente en todas partes y que centenares de industrias pertenecientes a dicho elemento se desarrollan de un modo soprendente, por medio de las actividades de nuestra organización universalmente. Siki piensa venir a los Estados Unidos para medirse con los mejores boxeadores de su categoria, especialmente con Harry Greb, el campón americano de peso liwano. El senegalés sin embargo espera que se le restituyan los titulos que arrebato a Georges Carpentier; a la mayor brevedad posible. Estas informaciones fueron hechas exclusivamente a uno de los correspondales del International News Service una entrevista celebrada con el poderado de Siki, Charles Brouilhet. Declaro también M. Brouilhet, que iba a hacer la solicitud para que se le concediera la licencia para poder celebrar encuentros y comenzar innadamente el entrenamiento de Siki para el match McTigue en Irlanda el 17 de marzo próximo, dia de San Patricio. Tal ha sido el resultado de la labor realizada por aquellos individuos cuya entereza de caracter y determinación incomparables han puesto en práctica sus ideas progresistas. Nada eficiente, ningun resultado práctico hemos notado que hayan obtenido los que por envidia y otras causas sin justificación, continuan aun utilizando las columnas de la prensa para atacar nuestro movimiento, cuyo lema es: defensa y protección de los intereses generales de la raza. El vencedor de Carpentier se halla por ahora en Checoslovaquia en donde sostuvo un encountre de exhibición en Praga. M. Brouilhet declarar haber enviado un telegrama a Siki comunicando la buena noticia y urgiendolo a que regrese. Paris tan pronto como haya cumplido los compromisos contraidos en csa. En pro de la realización de sus ideales, la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, con su nuevo espíritu de determinación, batallará hasta el fin por adquirir la libertad absoluta del Negro y la emancipación de su hogar. Tal espíritu será imperecedero por ser el espíritu de los millones de seres oprimidos que reclaman el derecho a la práctica. de todo principio democrático, derecho perteneciente a todo ser humano. Italia - Reconquista a Tripoli Italia ha emprendedo la dificil e ingrata-tarea de reconquistar las colonias tripitanas que acquirió como resultado de la guerra contra Turquia en 1912. Las tropas regulares de Italia reforzadas por tropas de la Cirenaica, han estado luchando casi por dos semanas en la región de la costa entre Tripoli y Homs contra cuerpos bien equipados de ...bus tripitanas. El gobierno de Roma acaba de anunciar que los italianos han libertado a Homs, que habia estado en poder de los tripitanos durante ocho años, y que habian sido restaurados también las comunicaciones entre aquella ciudad y Tripoli. Los diversos grupos que constituyen la humanidad hacen esfuerzo sobrehumanos en esta nueva época de intranquilidad social, para sobreponerse entre si. Nuestra raza no debe ignorar las consecuencias de la desorganización; la desorganización ocasiona ruina; los pueblos débiles y desorganizados siempre han sido victima de las razas y naciones fuertes. El deseo de nuestra organización es ver a nuestra raza levantarse con la marea de la civilización, en vez de descender con la inundación de desperdicios humanos. De la consolidación de una raza surge el reconocimiento y respeto a ella; de su desorganización surgirá su exterminio; en todas las edades el débil ha sido la victima del fuerte; no solamente debemos prepararnos, sino que es necesario su fuerte para no ser victima de nadie. Esta noticia demuestra lo debil que ha sido el dominio de Italia en Tripoli desde 1915. Los italianos han estado en posición de la ciudad de Tripoli, pero fueron incomunicados de Homs, en la costa, en una distancia de cien millones al este, excepto por el mar, y habran tenido que abandonar las posiciones avanzadas que habían establecido en el interior del país. Los resultados fueron mejoras en la Cirenaica, la cual habían conquistado al mismo tiempo que Tripoli, y allí no solamente existen bien establecidos en la costa, sino que han aventado al interior cast hasta el principio del desierto de la Liber. Hace unos dos años emporatar thomas con los jeses mormón, con objeto de no ser moleculo en las cempas, y depeñ entonces fueron establecidos con éxito colonias implicadas en un capítulo la luna más alta de los jeses indígenas. La época actual y sus circunstancias claramente nos demuestran que cada individuo, cada comunidad, cada raza debe proveer para si misma. La rivalidad existente priva la ayuda mutua, siendo además los elementos meterjales de vida muy escasos para ser distribuidos, resultando una lucha interminable por el uno acumular todo lo posible, aventajedos de la debilidad del otro. La labor de nuestra organización es profunda e inmediata, no mitra; ¿por qué quedar fuera del amparo de sus dominantes que perguías la administración del gobierno? ¿Por qué críticas y atenciones las actividades de sus ministros obligan a nuestro fuerza depende principalmente en los medios de comunicación. A la mesa de la casa desmonta junto a la mesa y la mesa de la Almacén y la Almacén. La guerra tripoli me estuvo en medio del asesinato de los impuestos centrales porque los estancias en una almacén diléctel al tener rida decidir entre Italia como una parte de la Triple Almacén y Turquía, cuya unidad estaban tratado de ganas por todos los médios. Culando Italia entró en la guerra mundial no tenía tropas que enviar a Tripoli; porque requería cuatro podia tener para contener el avión de los austriacos. De este modo hoy Italia vuelve a emprender la conquista de Tripoli, precisamente en el mismo punto en que estaba en el momento de terminar su guerra contra Turquia. Sin-embargo. Italia tiene una ventaja ahora; por no tenia al luchiar al principio por este territorio; no es concedida por una aliada y cuenta con empoyo de Francia y la Gran Bretaña. La situación en la costa norte de Africa no es satisfactoria para ninguna de las naciones que tienen intereses en el Mediterráneo. Los exitos del Rif-y de las tribus berebes contra España tenian una tendencia a envalentonar a los rebeldes marroquíes de la zona frauesa en Marruecos. Los exitos de Tripoli contra-Italia serian un incentivo más para el descontento en toda la costa. Y este es el desconto que los agentes y propagandistas turcos estan cultivando actualmente. Acuerdo de las Repúblicas Centroamericanas El acuerdo logrado por las republicas centroamericanas ha constituido un acto de importancia, ya que representa cierto progreso hacia la union federal. Cuando cinco republicas rompen la barrera formada por sus tarifas, reducen sus armamentos y convienen en sostener un gobierno republicano contra un golpe de estado y establer un organismo para spivatar sus diferencias, puede afirmarse que han dado un gran paso hacia la concución de la paz entre ellas. Han puesto en practica los principios que América defendió en la guerra mundial. Su problema, sin embargo, ha sido de más fácil solución que el que se presento a las naciones de Europa. Existen marcasadas diferencias entre esas pequeñas republicas con una misma cultura y los Balkanes y los países de la Europa Central. Pero la gran diferencia es esta: las republicas de Centro América no se han visto minadas por intrigas de las grandes potencias. Trotzky Aconseja la Union a Nuestra Raza Trotzky, comisario de guerra de la república roja, pronunció un discuro con motivo de la proximidad del quinto aniversario de la creación del ejército soviético, y animo a todos a prosiguer, sin descanso el entrenamiento militar. Nuestras victorias, agregó, han sido debidas a nuestra abnegación; espero que se difunda el entusiasmo; que se aumente nuestro número y que se perfeccione nuestra técnica, con objeto de poder obtener nuevas victorias con el menor derramamiento de sangre posible. Dirgiendose juego al, negro americano Clarence Makay que asistía a la fiesta, prosiguió Los negros deben unirse, para defenderse de la tirania de los Estados Unidos. Trotzyk culpó a Samuel Gompers, porque no se opone resultamente a la vil explotación de los negros en América. George Tehitecherin, comisario de relaciones exteriores declaró que la acción de Francia en el Rühr, era perjudicial a Rusia e hizo de ello responsable a Inglaterra. Elia, dijo, contemple el desastre sonriente; su intervención en el asunto seria decisiva.

The Honorable Marcus Garvey has been prevailed upon for the good of the public, to edit in a series of pamphlets, his important writings as the means of setting forth the aims, objectives and purpose of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. He will edit a series of 52 pamphlets for 1923. The first three will be off the page for another couple of weeks. They will include the following subjects: "Speeches delivered before International Conventions of Negro Peoples of the World, 1920, 1921, 1922." El Senado Rechaza una Proposición Sobre la Independencia Para las Filipinas "The cause of the defeat of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill; The Flag that Leads to Liberty; Social Equality Between Black and White in South Africa; The Statesmanship of President Harding After His Speech at Birmingham."

On the one hand they have accepted from Christianity and our European practitioners; on the other they excel us and their love of denominational social and encourage our unhygienic fashion. While they have not yet formed their prominent nations for collective bargaining of industrial matters, they have learned new methods of violence, as we shown recently in a Hand compound, when they hurled at the police—luckily without effect—homba, extempured from tin cans, dynamite and fire. Along with this tendency to imitation goes a susceptibility to propaganda which has brought upon them so much trouble in the past. How often have they not sacrificed lives and lands at the instigation of some false prophet. That blind belief in inspired persons and fantastic ideals which led to the cattle killing of the Amaxosa led also to the fanatical attachment to Enoch Mgijima and the tragedy of Bullhook, and even today there is a new prophet in the Tranekel preaching the end of the world, emphasizing the novel of a black church, and generally hovering on the brink of sedition. Away in the northwest of the Cape Province, in the country known as Little Namaqualand, and settlements of bigterd Hottentots, originally the scattered descendants of Dutch pioneers and Hottentot women, but now settled communities with an established form of government and a strong pride of mama and race. Abrham Morris, the ill-starred leader of the Bondelzwarts in their pbellion, was of these people. The distards occupy land on the mission reserves, granted to them and the early missionaries by the Cape Government, and here they have lived a quiet, unventful life under the guidance of the European missionaries and the supervisee of a government unit. Of late, however, bad seasons, the increased cost of living, an unfruitful system of education and inadequate missionary leadership have caused them to be disatisfied and unsettled. They have become ripe for the agitator, and he, has not been long in coming. He has come "to unite the people of Little Namaqualand," as they say, and "to make them free." The way to freedom involves the leaving of their ample and fertile lands in the reserves and trekking to the 400 morgen purchased on the installment plan by the Grigua Independent Church of South Africa and the Grigua Land Bank, Factories and Townships, Ltd., in the district of Van Rhyndesp. Hither have come nearly 400 bastards, with 1,000 of their stock, to take up small holdings. There I not nearly enough land for this number of people; there is little or no work in this district; the stock will soon be sold or consumed for food, and the people will be hungry. At the best they will be thrown on the pauper roll of the province; at the worst they may indulge in stock theft. In any event there will be distress, followed by a deep resentment, not against those who led them into disaster, but against the white man and his government, whose fault the failure will be made out to be. Attempted Reprieve of Stassen It is not, however, the pecuniarily interested only who are prepared to exploit the natives for their own ends. The history of our country shows that while South Africa has sternly and rightly set its face against the use of natives in wars between European races, she is not unwilling to introduce natives into her political and industrial disputes. The danger is greatest in the Cape Province, where, although the native may not sit as a member of Parliament, his vote can, it is said, determine the result of the election in a dozen constituenties.

A., 86 West 180th Street people, do not write the sentence of the police to be arrested out. Now for this was from the real sentiment of the people can be seen from the views expressed in the native press (including the paper with which the native delegates are connected) and the resolution passed at a meeting of natives at Ndabombi (Cape Town) expressing confidence in the government. As a matter of fact, the execution of a white man for the murder of natives, and the decision to repay to the natives money collected illegally from natives under the Transvaal Poll Tax Ordinance, has done much to restore the white man's reputation among the natives. A new phase in native life in this country which springs from an increasing mistrust of Europeans in seen in the remarkable belief which the natives are beginning to have in propaganda spread by members of their own race. On its good side, this is seen when we remember the extraordinary influence obtained over natives by Professor Aggrey, who visited this country a couple of years ago in connection with the educational survey undertaken by the Phelps Stokes Fund. Although this West African native could not speak a word of Kaffr, the fact that he was one of themselves, coupled no doubt with his remarkable oratorical gifts, made him at once a power in the land. On its bad side, we see the power of black-propaganda in the increasing influence of Carveyism in Africa. In spite of the police action which was taken against Marcus Carvey in America, and in spite of the ridicule which has been cast upon his movement, the creed of the "Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League," to give the movement its full title, is capturing the imagination of the black people of Africa. I will return to this subject for fuller treatment later; here it is sufficient to summarize its doctrine. In the words of Garvey's own paper, "The Nairobi World" "As the social relations between black and white are impossible, and as the whites are too prejudiced against the blacks to treat him as an equal either socially, politically, or industrially, therefore the black man's only hope of redemption is the creation of a distinct type of civilization in his mother land/ All this, says the paper, is to be accomplished under the slogan, "Africa for the Africans at home and station." U. N. I. A. and A. C. L. At almost every West African port the inquisitive voyager has only to get into the "black quarter" and to scratch a little below the surface to find signs of the orkization. They are at least two branches south of the Zambesi, and it is well known that some South African natives have sent Garvey money for investment in his Black Star Line of atcampship. Garvielism as preached today advocates the use of force to accomplish its ends, and is therefore incompatible with European control over Africa. No doubt the government will watch very carefully the spread of this and other anti-white propaganda in the Union, but it will easily be realized that mere suppression of these movements as they arise will not be sufficient. The native people are growing up, and some healthy counteracting methods to enable them to express their growing ideals will be necessary.—The Cape Argus, Friday, January 6, 1923. thus Sir.

Much of the attention of his organization was devoted to the help of the newcomers who were then coming from the South. The most conspicuous result was the finding of over 50,000 jobs. His organization also served as a pay station and food station for people who were financially embarrassed as a result of the riots. Again, in the period of unemployment two winter ago he originated and executed a plan by which over 41,000 meals were served, and over 16,000 tickets for a night's lodging were issued. Mr. Hill may, therefore, be considered as a man who is capable and whose unselfish record suggests that he will work for the interests of the citizens of his ward. JAY PETERS. Division 25.
