The Negro World

THE FIGHT FOR NEGRO RIGHTS AND LIBERTY BEGUN IN REAL EARNEST Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: There comes a time in the history of every race and nation when the supreme effort must be made to save that race or nation from its enemies, those within as well as those without. Such a time has come in the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the fight for Negro liberty and African redemption. Enemies and Their Plans For over three years the enemies of Negro progress laid their plans by which they hoped they would ultimately destroy the new effort on the part of Negroes for the realization of a freer, economic, social, educational and political life. The Foundation of the Opposition When the Universal Negro Improvement Association aggressively started its program in America five years ago, following up its activities in the West Indies four years prior, the enemies of Negro freedom within the race, as well as without the race, started to lay the foundation of an opposition which they calculated they could have used for successfully destroying the great program of this organization and dash back forever the hopes of a rising race. They calculated that out of the activities of this great organization they would have been able to so undermine our efforts as to make them appear as failures, and thereby strike back at the movement with what they would think to be irrefutable arguments of the organization's unworthiness. They tried many schemes, among them the laying of plans by which the Black Star Line Steamship Corporation would fail and other business activities connected with the Universal Negro Improvement Association, so that in their argument to the people who make up the Negro race, they would say: "We told you so; we told you so. It could not be done!" The estimates have contended without their hosts. Now is the time for the four hundred million Negroes of the world to stand together firmer than ever before, because, in truth, "the enemy shall not pass." The Black Star Line The so-called business failure of the Black Star Line was but a trap set to destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association. But how silly and simple these small-minded enemies are. Do they believe that they can destroy a spiritual movement in this kind of way? Can they believe in themselves that the Universal Negro Improvement Association can die because of the failure of any business enterprise? The idea of the Black Star Line has not failed, can never fail, because four hundred million Negroes are determined that out of Africa shall spring one of the greatest governments of the world, and with the rise of a mighty nation and a great people will come all that contributes to human effort and human endeavors. There shall be a greater Black Star Line; there shall be a Black Star Line that shall belt the world with the industries of black men. So let us think not of failure in the sense that the enemies have laid the trap for it to be. The Calibre of the Enemies Smart, brilliant, great and intellectual though you enemies believe yourselves to be, but, gentlemen, you are yet school boys in your conceptions. Real men laugh at opposition; real men smile when enemies appear. If you believe you can intimidate and destroy the courage of a race through the destruction of a business enterprise, or by the persecution of an individual, you are crazy, you are foolish, you are mistaken. It might have been so easy with the old Negro, but not with the new. Behind the Universal Negro Improvement Association stands a spiritual force that can never die; no power in the world can destroy it. It is the spirit of liberty, it is the spirit that faces death and smiles. We welcome the opposition of the world, because we are determined to see the battle through. Africa's battle-cry is not yet heard. What of the day, gentlemen, when Africa shall indeed unfurl her banner of liberty? The persecutions and the sufferings of the past shall be but our breast plates and shields and armor to fight until victory perches upon the banner of Negro liberty. We who are sober in our minds, and our vision, and our outlook, laugh at these children who believe that they can tear to pieces and destroy the principles underlying the Universal Negro Improvement Association as embodied in a Black Star Line, or any other business operations thereto connected. We have not yet started the battle for liberty, gentlemen; we have just been talking about it. It is a fight that will continue down the ages; it is a fight that is confined to no one generation, but succeeding generations shall THE ENEMIES OF HUMANITY'S CAUSE AT THE OLD GAME JUDAS REINCARNATED IN TRAITOROUS NE GROES OF TODAY ON WITH THE FIGHT FOR AFRICA'S REDEMPTION fight, the more especially when we write in the present for them a history of injustice and persecution, a history of sufferings as we now undergo them. Garvey and Persecution What does Marcus Garvey care about persecution by the enemies? If the enemy could only know that Marcus Garvey is but a John the Baptist in the wilderness, that a greater and more dangerous Marcus Garvey is yet to appear, the Garvey with whom you will have to reckon for the injustice of the present generation. The Swords of the Enemy Gentlemen, you may as well sharpen your swords, because it is going to be a bloody conflict. History has been the inspiration of generations past, and what we record shall be the inspiration of black generations yet unborn. Marcus Garvey of the present shall so write a history that Negroes one hundred, two hundred years from now shall not forget, shall not forget, shall not forget. Gentlemen, remember you are dealing with a serious time. Marcus Garvey does not give a snap to the singer for anything human but justice, and that which is based upon right women. With all your trickery, with all your plots, you are just like "shall before the wind," which shall in a while be blown to atoms. Prestige generations have flirted with and fooled with Negroes' liberty. Today it going to be a battle to the finish. We have no apologies, we have no promises, we are not begging the issue; we are just determined we are going to live free men or die free men. So let the whole world of Negroes realize that the hour is approaching when black men shall be called upon to talk their stand, to play their part, and play it well. The Hour Has Come Let the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association all over the world realize that now is the hour for the manifestation of loyalty and devotion to the cause that we love so well. The enemies think that they are at our door; some of us feel that they are there; now let us get ready to dislodge them. The enemies are not so much from without as from within the race. In the final reckoning, when Ethiopia shall have written her name on the new scroll of empires, when Princes shall come out of Egypt and Africa take her stand in a new civilization, we will then reckon with the generation of vipers whose names and their children's shall go down to undying posterity. A Battle of the Centuries Fight on, enemies, fight on; it is a battle of the centuries. It is not of Garvey today; it shall be of all times. How long, how long, how long! Answer that for yourselves. Some men believe themselves smart, some believe themselves wonderfully keen. But, ah! there is no sage who hath not a master! You who think that your small schemes and your secret propaganda to destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association through its own members can be accomplished make a big mistake. We see that your ambition is to get Garvey out of the way and everything will follow. You said: "We will get Garvey out of the way if we destroy the Black Star Line." Well, Garvey did not go then. "We will get Garvey another way; we will undermine all his business entrprises, and try to make them failures; and then tell the people, 'Oh! you see what has happened,' then Garvey is bound to go after that." Well, Garvey did not go. "Well," they said, "what is the matter? Let us attack him in person, then let our slogan be, "Garvey must go." But Garvey did not go. "Well, we will try to get him otherwise, because this Universal Negro Improvement Association idea must be throttled." Ah, but Garvey is here, and both of them shall go down the ages. If Garvey dies, Garvey lives; if the Universal Negro Improvement Association is embarrassed, a greater Universal Negro Improvement Association arises. Gentlemen, what are you going to do? You must first destroy the souls of black men before you can destroy Garvey, and destroy the Univer- sal Negro Improvement Association, and you will have a h— of a time doing that. Garvey cannot die, the Universal Negro Improvement Association cannot die, because, gentlemen, the thing is not only physical, the individual is not only physical, but there is a spiritual motive, there is a spiritual force back of it that cannot be destroyed. Great Ideals Great ideals, great principles, great truths never die. Individuals die, the Christ died, Mohammed died; but you did not destroy Christianity or Mohammedanism. Garvey in the flesh can die, and he is ready to die at any time; but, gentlemen, the greater force will live on; one, I repeat, that will do down the ages to tell the story, tell the story of the traitors, tell the story of those who stood in the way of a glorious redemption for Negroes; tell the story of those who tried to block the passage of the rising Ethiopia, of the new Africa. What shall be your defense before the bar of African redemption, gentlemen? Will you plead innocence; will you plead not knowing better? Ah, ignorance will be no excuse. Our history of the traitors shall go down the ages and shall be written in the black book of time, and even the Angel of Eternity shall lay it before the judgment seat of God. The Traitors at Their Worst The traitors are working hard, the enemies are doing their worst; but we smile in their faces. There are combinations of forces working against the Universal Negro Improvement Association, against which it is written by these enemies. "That association and Garvey must be destroyed." They have been using men once placed in positions of trust in this association to help destroy the movement. These traitors we have had to dismiss. Today they, with the rest of our enemies, are determined to tear down the structure that we have built. They have all entered into a conspiracy to sue and embarrass the Universal Negro Improvement Association. to forward we must so long as there is a God, so long as there is a world, so long as there is a human race. But, members, I repeat, these traitors are endeavoring to embarrass us before the courts, suing us for salaries, trying to force judgments upon us at a time when we are supposed to be fighting the common enemy, so that they could glory in the downfall of the movement. They also are mistaken. Members and friends, let us pay these traitors, let us pay them off in their bits of silver. Therefore, I appeal to each and every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to do this bit of service now; send to the Parent Body whatsoever financial support you can give to help us pay off these traitors who are endeavoring to sue us. Let us dispose of them that way, and then let us continue the fight against the common enemy. These "bits of silver" shall bring them tears in the years to come. Let us hand them over now, the thirty pieces of silver. That which Judas received did not help him very long; he was willing to return it, but nobody would receive it. These enemies, these traitors, may yet rue the day when they turned their backs upon the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the organization that made them. Did we not make them? Making Men We picked some of them up from the lowest and poorest of the race and made gentlemen of them, because we believed that by their sufferings they would be able to appreciate the service to which they were called. It takes a slave to appreciate liberty; it takes a man who suffers to understand freedom, and that was why we thought that in taking these men and making them gentlemen that we were rendering a service to the race. We made a terrible mistake. It is true all of us make mistakes. Some of these Negroes who never earned more than $25.00 per week because of their intelligence we thought we could give them a chance to make good and make something of themselves. We gave them grand and noble positions. We tried to make statesmen of them, but they fell by the wayside. Yes, you know that, and you will see them drift back to the condition they were in before they came into the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Our generation and posterity may yet smile in their faces, but let us pay them. And you can do it now by sending your contribution to the "Bit of Silver Fund" to the Secretary-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association, 56 West 135th Street, New York City, U.-S. A. P. S. I make another appeal to all members. Branches and Chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world to rally now to the assistance of the Parent Body in helping to push through the big program that we have undertaken and make the fight that we are engaged in victorious for the four hundred million Negroes of the world. You can do this by paying up your dues, or assessments, and seeing that your monthly reports reach the Parent Body regularly. M. G.

EUROPEAN IMMIGRANTS AND NEGROES. ‘oe R ACE Here Failing, Dr. Cutten Finds. Melting Pot Theory * "of Equality a Fal‘acy, Says Head of Colgate University. a Some Southern European Immigrants Lower Than Negrors __in Intelligence, He Asserts.” ” Such were the Startling and striking head- “"THines.in the: New: York Hétald for May 15. 3 HOON, o "To paraphrase Dr. Coué, day by day in every way, the Negro’s status is being’ lifted by scientific and historical investigation. “Scientists and historiatis’ have now. discovered there was.a strain of Negro: blood _in the anelent Egyptians and a decided and predonthant strain of Negro blood in the Ethiopians. And now comes. Dr. Cutten, saying that some . Southern European, immigrants are lower than Negroes in intelligence. Twenty, thirty and forty years ago the doctrine was taught in the schools and colleges that there were five great haces—the white, yellow, copper colored, brown and black—color was the distinguishing mark.of race; and that the whiter’ the color the more superior the race. Max Miiller’s pet Sghskrit theory was.eXploited for all that it was worth. ‘The fact that thie‘Sinddos, Greeks, Romans, Saxons and Tgutons had ‘similar words for father, mother, brother, ctcn led to the conclusion. that they were all members of the Aryan race, which scattered.over the’ world: fromr the ‘hills and. plateatis of Central Asia and started to propa- gate such civilization as the world has since seen. This theory was, strikingly expressed in Colonel Mayfield's Weekly, published in Hous: ton, Tex., on March 24,°1923, when he said: “The principle of white supremacy is fixed, immutable and eternal in the Caucasian breast...

SSR ce ee ‘ - THE MEDITERRANEAN RACE But two ethnologists, Sergi and Ripley, came along and showed that not‘color and language, but the shape of the skull, determined ‘race, and that the Pelasgians, the Grecks of Homer's day, and the Etruscans and early settlers in Rome .were not members ofthe Aryan race, but were members of the Mediterranean race, from which the Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Arabians, Egyptians and Negroes sprang. And the glory that was Greece’s‘and the grandeur that was Rome’s were not wrought out by the Anglo-Saxon race, but by a race that represented a blending of Mediterranean race and Aryan Hellenes. But, as these things have aheen thrashed ont in: The Afiican Abroad” and in ‘The Negro World, we will not linger and tarry on this theme. | THE NORDIC RACE Recently Df Henry Fairfield Qshorn, Dr. Madison Grant, Lothrop Stoddard and Dr. George P. Cutten came along with their theories of the Nordic race, showing that there are divisions in the great white race and that the Nordics, who sprang from’Scandinavia and the forests of Germany, and were represented in carly days hy the Vikings, _Tanes, Angles and Saxons, were racially superior Jo the Latin and Slavic populations of Southern Europe. ‘That is to say, there are gradesand gradations in the white race. Dr. Gearge P. Cutten, president of Colgate University, at a banquet af the Canadian Society of New York on May 4 in the Hotel Rittmore [ an honor of the newly elécted president, T. Spencer Smith, stated that there are only 13°4. per cont, af superior minds in the United States, and said: “The great fallacy of the melting pot was that we thought environ sent played so mutch larger part in life than heredity, and if we could only. get peaple here and surround them with proper environment it mattered not who they were. they'd become intellectual, cultured and . moral according to our standards, Experience has proved the falsity | ofssuch a supposition.” ; 4 We will say;in passing that the New England type represented by | Male, Sanborn and.

During the fast thirty or forty years 70 16 75] per cent. of the total imniigration has been Alpine or Mediterranean. |! About 350 in 1,000 of the Alpine’ and Mediterranean types are below |! the average Negro in intelligence. Since 1901 almost 10,000,000 Alpines -and Mediterraneans have come here, which, allowing for returns to] their native lands, would give us 2,000,000 immigrants below the average Negro." . : vs - "That is to sap, Dr. Cutten states, that at least one-third of the] Southern European immigrants who come to America are below the|' average Negro. in, intelligence.

E are asked frequently “What of the U.N. I. A.? What has W. it accomplished? What are its future prospects?” A sini- lar question was asked in Isaiah; “\Watchman, what of the night?" His immediate reply was, “The morning cometh and also the night.” ‘The watchman-was asked “What time of night is it?” His Feply was, in-substance: “It is night now. But the day will soon break. ‘The rising sun will soon cast « crimson glow over the Eastern sky and then ride in meridian splendor as god of the day.” So it is with the'U. N. J. A. Those past and present officials of the organization and the invéstots in one of the industrial auxiliaries of the U, N. 1. Avsvho expected within four year to be riding around the country in a Kolls-Royce car.are grievously disappointed, and those who thought Marcus Garvey carried an Aladdin's Lamp, by which he could perform miracles, are grievotsly disappointed. But when we take an Jnventory and consider that in four years the U. N. I A. has belted the globe with nearly a thousand organizations and enrolled hundreds of thousands of members, we can see that just as the A, M. FE. Church and the A. M. E. Ziop churches are potential finangial assets, so the U. Nv 1. A. is a potential, financial asset, because it has nearly one thousand organized divisions and hundreds of thou- sands of members behind it. It is still a young organization and by no means has yet exhausted its spititual, educational, industrial and com- snercial possibilities and potentialities. . “Lis true that all of its industrial auxiliaries have noi floated on the crest of the wave, but when we reflect that the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad had hard sledding some-nine years ago; that Mark ‘Twain failed as a publisher and went on’a lecture tour to earn money enough o pay off his creditors: that ‘George Westinghouse was twice on the verge of bankruptcy; that Tom Lawson and other men of finan- cial brains met with’ business reverses and that some steamship lines have found the way rough and rocky during ‘recent. years, we must not get discouraged. _ The motto we learned in our school days was, ‘If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.” 2 ie 5 We leave as the closing Words of this editorial the remark of Dr. Arthur Twining Hadley, a noted political economist. and president emeritus of Yale University, at the Yale alumni dinner at thé .com- mencement exercises in June, 1922. He said, in substance, discussing the League of Nations: “We must remember that progress is caused by making many experiments that turn out badly and by taking many false steps hefore-the true step is taken.” ad The U.

There..was one suggestion ‘in these articles that we desire. to emphasize, That is the Woctrine that an ounce of prevention-is worth a pound of cure, and a stitch in time saves ‘hine. Hardening of the arteries, high blood pressure, diabetes, heart, kidney, liver, stomach, bronchial and-lung trouble can be cured in some cases and arrested for a few years in others if-a competent physician be consulted before the ailment becomes chronic and has reached the incurable stages, Unfor- tunately many people, especially women, wait until they are flat on their backs and some-disease has a strangle hold on them before they call in a physician, And then it is too late for him to cure them and set them on their feet again, All that he can do is to prolong their lives a few: days by the administering of injections of atropine, strychnine, sul- phate, caffeine sodii with benzoate, potassium iodide, Burman’s soluble iodine, watery purge, enema, saline solution or oxygen. We trust that our readers will reread Dr. Rawlins’ suggestion if they have preserved The Negro World, and consult a physician and: combat their various ailnients in the initial stages. . —$ $$$ HOWARD ANNOUNCES Com WEST INDIAN FEDERATION WASHINGTON, D.

G. May 19. (Pacific Coast, News Bureau)—"Did the Negroes of the South feel the energy, industry and power of leadership possessed by the Japanese the whites would have been entirely excluded from that part of the country," declared Attorney-General Wehb... of California, in his argument recently before the United States Supreme Court on the four alien land cases brought from California, and Washington. In the lower courts the constitutionality of the laws of the Pacific States, which prohibit aliens who are not eligible to citizenship (particularly the Japanese, Chinese, Hindus and native Africans) not only from bearing and owning real estate, but also from holding stock in land-owning corporations, was sustained. The lower courts, however, held that aliens could lawfully enter into contracts with land owners under which they undertook to farm the land upon a crop-sharing basis. Violates 14th Amendment Louis Marshall, counsel for those, challenging the law, contended that the legislation was invalid in that it constituted an unconstitutional discrimination against persons of their color and race and violated the 14th Amendment to the Federal Constitution. Another Race Problem In completing his argument Attorney-General Webb of California, in an answer to an order from Chief Justice Taft to speak plainly in stating what the Japanese were doing to which he (Webb) took objection, replied: "The white people refuse to assimilate with the Japanese and, as the Japanese line advances, we retreat, and we do not like to retreat. We had one race problem which was settled, by the Civil War," continued Mr. Webb. "There is another growing up on now the Pacific Const that is more threatening. We have already lost the Philippines. The Japanese dominate there now." Reason for Alarm According to Cornellus Vanderbilt Jr., in a series of articles on the Japanese question published in the Los Angeles Examiner. "On Jan. 21, 1933 figures for last year's birth rate for Calgary, were announced. The number of Japanese births had decreased 5 per cent. Still, at that, it was found to be three and a half times greater than that of the Caucasian race. There were 63 born to every 1,000 Japanese, and 19 born to every 1,000 whites. In 1922 66,363 whites and 5,033 Japanese were born in the State. "Our coast is our heritage. Today there are in the States of the Pacific slope approximately the same number of Japanese as there were Negroes south of the Mason and Dixon line at the outbreak of the Civil War. The colored races of Africa are slow, shifttless, assimilable. The yellow races of Asia are quick, energetic, unassimilable."

ANTHONY ABRY HAMPTON, Va., May 17.—The State agents for colored schools in fourteen Southern States, who recently met for a three-day conference at Hampton Institute, were introduced by Principal J. E. Gregg as the "group of men who are doing the most important work that is being done in the South for the improvement of colored public schools." Leo M. Favrot, Baton Rouge, LA., referred to Hampton's service to the South through its graduates. He stated that in Louisiana the colored school population had increased 3 percent in nine years, while the number of colored teachers had doubled and the salaries paid to colored teachers had quadrupled. In 1913 two-thirds of the white school children were enrolled, white only one-third of the colored children were enrolled. In 1923 three-fourths of the white school children and two-thirds of the colored children were enrolled. "There is a growing sentiment," he said, "that we must do more for our colored children." N. C. Newbold, Raleigh, N. C. stated that North Carolina is now spending between $3,500,000 and $4,000,000 annually on its colored schools. "We have built," he said, "257 Rosenwald schools at a cost of over $1,000,000. Forty more Rosenwald schools must be completed by June 1. These schools will cost $120,000. Three years ago North Carolina had 1,000 colored teachers with State certificates. Today the State has 2,250 North Carolina is making an earnest, sincere and faithful effort to do its duty by its colored people. Some of us have a hope and an ambition that we may live to see not only in our State, but all over this country, such conditions obtain as will make of the races friends and helpers and co-operators for the unbuilding of our country." W. T. B. Williams, Tuskegee Institute, field secretary of the Jeanes' and Blater Boards, said: "American Negro have had stimulated within them the sense of responsibility for those who have been less fortunate than they are. That impulse has sent hundreds into the work for the uplift of others." Dr. James Hardy Dillard, Charlottesville, Va., president of the Joanes and Stater Board, declared that he discovered many years ago that all the millionaires in America could not educate the people. "There is only one way to do the job," he said, "and that is by public taxation. That is the way it must be and ought to be." Dr. Dillard said that the Humpton Institute students are chosen ones, who must through service give their less fortunate brothers and sisters a fair chance. "These Stato agents," he said, "are making it possible to bring the school out to' the little child in the country, and, please God, we are going to keep at this work until every child shall have a good school to go to, where he may get the light of knowledge and good will and good training to be a good citizen." Other members of the conference included Dr. Willhee Buttrick, Trevor Arnett and H. J. Thorkelson, New York; B. C. Caldwell, New Orleans; O. H. Bernard, Nashville; J. H. Brinson, Tallahassee; F. C. Button, Frankfort, Ky; W. F. Credle, Raleigh; E. A. Duke, Oklahoma City; J. B. Felton, Columbia, S. C.; G. H. Ferguson, Raleigh; Wm. D. Gresham, Richmond; Bura Hilburn, Jackson, Miss; W. B. Hill, Atlanta; J. W. Huffling, Baltimore; J. S. Lambert, Montgomery, Ala; J. A. Presson, Little Rock; L. W. Rogers, Austin, Texas, and S. L. Smith, Nashville. Addresses were also made by Laurence H. Parker, Amherst, Mass. editor of "World Agriculture," who stated that no permanent society of nations could be organized without the proper adjustment of those economic difficulties which center about the world's food supply; by Jackson Davie, Richmond, Va. field agent of the General Education Board, and by Dr. Francis W. Shepardson, Chicago, secretary and acting director of "The Julius Rosenwald Fund." LADY HENRIETTA VINTON DAVIS SPEAKS TO LARGE CROWDS IN CINCINNATH Sunday afternoon and night the Cin- cinnati division turned out en masse to guest Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis on her first visit to the division for nearly a year. At both meetings the hall was packed to its utmost capacity, with all standing room taken. The afternoon program was cut shorter than usual in order to give Lady Davis as much time as possible. A short paper by one of the young ladies of the juvenile department, two brief preliminary speeches by local speakers and three selections by the deputy mailer to make up the program preceding the address of the evening by our distinguished visitor. Once being presented to the audience Lady Davis was greeted with a warmth of affection which lasted no doubt as to the diversity of her hearer enthusiasm. Her subject for the after- and a few selections by the child, as in the afternoon, suffered to make up the program, after which LaTeX Davis was presented to the audience for the second time that day. She chose as her themes for the evening "The Negro and the Door of Opportunity," and her bearer thrilled to her every remark as she pursued her subject to a rounding elimax which brought thunderous applause from the packed audience. Lady Davis, in the course of her speech, elaborated on the wonderful opportunities which were presenting themselves to the race through the instrucntality of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and on the great possibilities for race development through the united effort of the membership of the organization. She made a strong appeal to those present for their continued loyalty to the association and for their wholehearted cooperation in the carrying out of the program of their local division. In order that the success of the great cause might become an established fact in the city of Cincinnati, and that the larger program for the ultimate redemption and restoration of our motherland Africa might speedily terminate into a complete success and triumph for the Negro peoples of the world. Lady Davis will be with the Cincinnati division for a week, or more New Gland Invigorator Restores Vital Force Remarkable Scientific Discovery Makes Glands Active.

It is a difficult question to know the change that take place from time to time which are a benefit to our group.] These was a time when sugar required supreme as the principal product of the West Indies. The money earned from this commodity and its buyproducts kept the colonies and included on their feet. The strategic operation of Germany, with the advantage that Great Britain was to gain, brought beef root sugar to the front, causing the decline of the sugar case. Hit in a vital spot, the West Indies were forced to oke out resistance from other products. The women was barely able to meet the one of administering the government; the planting community looked to England for aid, which did not come. In desperate need of relief, an attempt was made to stern the tide of disaster by some sort of hinter-colonial trade. Commerce Then it was that the benefit of federation was taken into account. During this time a fair amount of emigration took place to the more prosperous colonies or islands as the opportunities showed themselves. The small trade engaged in covered only the wants of the people to a limited degree; behalld this were the more important factors that pressed with greater demand for attention. The pooling of the resources of the several chambers of commerce, together with the help of the planting community (Royal Agricultural Society), was suggested as a means of solving the problem; also the idea gained widespread acceptance that trade between the colonies and islands was possible on a large scale. It was hoped that imports, especially of food stuffs, would decrease holding in large sums which found its way into foreign markets. Lowering the cost of government was one of the hopes indulged in. The necessity of closer trade development between the West Indies is conceived; the benefit of contact and the general improvement of these places a immediate attention on the West Indies is it to MORRIS SPECIAL OFFER GOLUMBIA G-2 1923 Model BEEN REDUCED—$25 $5 DOWN Easy Payments Morris Music Shop Lenox Avenue, corner 143d Street NEW YORK Records Special Release No. 80062—ARGOS PAPER No. 80060—DON'T BITE ME PARAMOUNT Dear Lord, Remember Me; by Clark 6 P E C I A L German Portable Phonograph, $14.50, guaranteed BISHOP I.

Separate and distinct in some instances each place hold an advantage that it does not desire to give up. There is no particular antipathy that lies between these group; however, when an attempt is made to weld the mass into a harmonious whole points are raised which must be settled to the benefit of all concerned. Barbados This island, living under the most representative form, of self-government and holding a central position to Europe, is not willing to lessen its standing by merging its interests in the federation. Jamaica This island always progressive and far-fetched, doing a large trade with the United States and Canada, does not desire to enter its credit in the federation because it was the result of its own efforts. Trinidad This colony, recovering from the setback through the development of its pitch lakes, feels that its needs are covered and it does not desire to enter the federation to the detriment of its foreign trade. Leeward and Windward Islands Too numerous to mention by name singly, they welcome the federation because of their smallness and on account of the possibilities in entering places with which they are familiar to advance their progress. British Guiana. 8. A. British Guiana, S. A. The colony of British Guiana holds the hinterland with its undeveloped resources in rubber, balata, timber, gold and other mineral wealth that came to the aid of the colony are sufficient to meet its every need; in addition to its 90,000 square miles of territory, which it believes can surmise the hold of the surplus from the West Indies and still have plenty of room for expansion, is unwilling to join the federation, to the detriment of its advantages. Political The political situation is the plovet on which rests the solution; in theinate the staff of officers who administer the government. It will take into account the most favorable place for the executive control. It will bring the West Indies and British Gulana past the Secretary of State for the Colonies, right into the House of Commons and Parliament. It is here that rivaries will begin and the most effective opposition will be encountered in that it calls for changes in Constitutions, Acts of Parliament, Seals of Privy Council and the host, of treaties under which the several places became part of the British Empire and exercised the right of limited self-government. The U. N. I. A. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League believe that these obstacles in the path of solution are not insurmountable barriers; they believe that the awakened racial consciousness of the Elective Section of these places will adjust themselves to the needs of the hour in that it brings to a large mass of Negroes a greater portion of the opportunity. They believe that these representative men can give up big gains for greater and a more conspicuous place in the affairs of the world, that their deliberations will be deep, frank and brave. Time While many years have elapsed since the conditions outlined were in effect and many more may roll on before the end is reached, it is the duty of everyone to bring to a favourable place information now in their possession by seeing that the goal Africa, on which our hearts are set, maintain and advance her steps in keeping with every advantage gained. The West Indies and British Guiana have the moral support of forward-looking Negroes everywhere and it is hoped that the federation will come into being without undue delay. PROF. MALONEY ADDRESSES ANTIOCH (WHITE) COLLEGE On Thursday night, April 26, Prof. A. H. Maloney, of the Department of Psychology of Wilberforce University visited Antioch, College (white), of Yellow Springs, Ohio, at the invitation of Professor Chatterjee, the head of the Social Science Department there, and delivered an address on "The Case of the Negro" to a group of professors and students. The address which consumed one hour stimulated so much interest that fully two hours more were consumed in the asking and answering of questions germane to the issue. The "case of the Negro" was handled in mastery fashion. A return engagement was scheduled. Accompanying Prof. Maloney on the trip were Prof. Pyrtle of the Department of Natural Sciences, Prof. Jones of the Department of Engineering and two students of Wilberforce University, Mr. Addison and Mr. Shilto. These all entered heartily into the informal discussion and contributed materially towards the decidation of knotty-problem incident to the contact and attrition of the race. While you finger in your illness Words can not frame your worth. And I ever pray to Christ That you may not yet Be resolved back to earth. I prayed that Death wield not his weapon. As I stood aloof, yet near, And the voice from the couch, feeble, Low, mild and gentle, I could hardly hear. Your sweet mother, calm, devoted, Tended you with pains, To save your life From falling from existence, As to the flowers does the rain. Your father, suave, well poised, Looked upon his child with care, Lingered closely by your side, As if death he would dare. Then a voice, low, yet clear, ; "Called me to your couch; My heart sink within me; Not a word uttered my mouth. You laid so limp, pale and wan. Your eyes sparkled not with pride. Only For a moment your hand, Fever scorching, laid in mine. My sorrow I could not hide. Wealth, honor and luxuries, And you, refined of another race; Reproach me nor my poverty; Nor soorn the shallowness of my grace. Today my heart goes out to you: For you tried to fit me for better days; With the blood of a true American, You assiduously my lessons gave. When all had turned their back upon one With true blood, you gave me aid. It is not in me to essay it, But my heart at your feet is said. O death, sting not my tutor! Flee, flee, come not near so soon! I pray you, master of her destiny, Pluck her not in her bloom! Your inspiring words stay with me: "If I die, stalk with your will. Fight, fight, and you shall win! Some day, you'll give all a thrill." Would you but take back The strength of youth, And help me to learn the truth. Take again life's fresh spring, And help me to learn the wise men's ways. I am puzzled with my studies, And my lessons have been stayed. I can look to no one but you, For the world is down on me. Your words ever sustain me: "Tis Gods will, you'll a great man be!" Today I ride away in my chariot, Far beyond the fleecy clouds. And return with glad tidings, Tidings to make you proud. My prayers are my charlot to Take me to the Most High. I go before His Highness, and say, "O Father, let not my tutor die." He's a merciful Father, compassionate, The Ruler of heaven, earth and man. He will hear my prayer, pity you; And tell death to stay his hand. When God your strength gives back, You will come and make me a man. And we shall praise the Most High Because death stayed his hand. You will help me again in my struggle, When you have regained your strength. Push me onward and upward ever, With my ambition, to reach the zenith. My confidence is placed in you, My hopes, my attainments and my all: You will help me to reach the top; Recognized by great men. I can't fall! When I have reached the pinnacle, The pinnacle of my wanted fame, To you I will hear honor in my bosom, And will ever praise your name. Kind gentle and so full of sympathy. Of another the world can't hold such; A palace and its splendor await you; No words can frame your worth! Of course, we may have lots or nice things and all the pleasure and enjoyments besides. And, after all, we may not lessen our personal affairs, self-development and future attainments so greatly. But far-sighted and ambitious boys and girls who observe life from every angle—know how to value life by his melts and demerits, who set their eyes on their future goal, never relaxing their struggles until it is reached, prefer the practical common sense route to peace, power and plenty. Naturally, they make use of every spare moment—apply themselves to study. JAMES-W. STREETER, JR., 125 E. Third St., East Liverpool, O.

CHORAL WORK SPREADS AMONG COLORED GROUPS Self-expression in music for colored Americans has lately been advanced through the work among colored people conducted by Community Service. That national civic organization maintains a special music organizer, George L. Johnson, for work among the colored groups which operate under the local Community Service organizations. Several recent concerts illustrate the opportunity that is being given for the development of musical talent among the colored people. For instance, in a program given by Douglass Branch, Community Service in Huntington, W. Va., numbers were given by a mixed chorus and by a men's and women's glee club, in addition to offerings of talented solitaires. The music used included not only the best output of Negro composers, but other standard works. Dr. W. R. Franklin, the chairman of the music committee, carried on that branch of the work in Huntington. A similar alignment of choral groups appeared in a program at Coffeyville, Kansas, under the direction of Mr. Johnson, who offered several favorite concert songs as solos. A feature of this and the other programs was the singing of the national Negro anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," composed by J. Rosamond Johnson. The Annual Spring Musicale presented by the Federation for Social Service in Dayton, Ohio, introduced the Jubilee Chorus in several spirituals; the H. T. Burleigh Glee Club, the latter named for the eminent Negro composer; the Girls' Glee Club of the Steel High School; the Malleable Iron Works Glee Club; a double quintet in the "Misereer" from "Il Trovatore"; and the Community Service mixed quartet. Bertrand Brown's song, "Baby," was sung by Mrs. Maude Walker. Another annual spring event was the Music Festival presented by the Community Choral Club of the N. L. Edwards Community Service of Bluerfield, West Virginia. Several choral groups participated, their offerings including not only Negro spirituals, but such numbers as Goinnol's "Unfold, Ye Portals," and MacDowell's "Ho, Every One That Thirsteth." NATIVITY'S CALL I will sing the songs into Egypt dear; I will don the hues that she wears, for pride; I will read the silies of her splendid beat: For my blood's a drop of her ancient tide— Ebbed, to roll in the subilmer, some day— I like the waves bear foam to Arabla's bay. I will wander thru Karnak's ruins and dream. Where eternity's symbols speak, sublime. Of the race that rose to immortal heights And covered the threads of the webs of time; For its pulse is mine, and its heat has throbbed. With the current of life of habitat robbed. I will muse where the saffron waves of sand Dash the siphing with their awiring desert of foam; For it calls to this restless heart of mine: "Return, alien child, to thy native home; For the mighty works, which thy fore-bears wrought. Are a part of thy intent, unshaped thought." I will ponder where fifty thousand years Have surged away in the veins of the Nile. To inspire the songs of immortal bards, Until acorns seem but a little while. How oft in my dreams the strokes of mine ear Fling spray over the lotus of my fair shore. Ah! nations may rise and their glory wane; But the heart will thrill to the blood at last. And gallantly rise, like a knight of old. To shield the heritage of the past: And I will not war with this soul that cries: "Return to nativity's haunting skies." ETHEL TREW DUNLAP. Watts.-Cal. Box. Cor. Ramsaur and Compton.

PHYLLIS WHEAT UNIVERSAL NEC PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR Well may Ephimias be proud. Of the paths o'er which Dunbar hast trod. His literary works provide food for thought. He must surely have an inspiration caught. Those who thought that all of us could be bought. He has surely set their thoughts at naught. His heart was true, his heart was broad. He learned the Fatherhood of God. He wielded his pech as a man. For the Brotherhood of Man. He sang of black, he sang of white. He sang of darkness and of light. He dipped his pen in the finest imaginary ink Which sends us in wonderland to think His lines on the wicked mob Make our hearts sadly throb And o, those beautiful lines that ring Bid our soul joyfully to sing. He was mightily proud that his skin was black. He sang so perfect, he soared on high as a lark He conquered fear, he did not rest While fighting the cause of his race oppressed When his race they maliciously did slander He proved himself to be a worthy defender. Well did Ethiopia weep When her poet son went to his eternal sleep Her heart beat sadly, her eyes became dim Her cup of sorrow was full to the brim A cold air blew over the black world When Paul Dunbar to rest was called. No more his mighty pen shall write Of gloomy times nor pleasant light Oh, if he could now sing of Ethiopia's rise And chastise those who heed not to her cries! But ah! he has handed down his mission To those of us who have caught the vision. His undying letters live In his prophecy we believe On every hand in every land Proud Ethiopia's swarthy children stand Indeed our souls and eyes Follow Ethiopia's continuous rise.

Ernest S. Headley, First Vice-President; Mrs. Priscilla W. DeGenesta, Lady President, and Corporal Ringwood of the U. N. I. A., of Boston Division, Electrify Audience in Lynn, Mass. By ERNEST H. HEADLEY, Boston Chronicle So much has been said pro and con of the Universal Negro Improvement Association by those who have only a surface impression that it was for the first vice-president, Ernest S. Headley, and the lady president, Mrs. Priscilla W. DeGeneste, with Corporal Ringwood of the U. A. L., who motored to Lynn, Mass., on Sunday, April 8, to propound the doctrine of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The meeting was held at the Groveland Street Association Hall under the aupices of the Lynn Sunday Forum. After the regular opening of the forum the representatives of the U. N. I. A. were introduced to the audience by Mrs. Robinson, a member of the Black Cross Nurses of the Boston division, U. N. I. A. The remainder of the meeting was turned over to Mr. Ernest Headley, who thanked the association for the courtesy they had extended to him and his party. Corporal Ringwood was called upon to represent his department, which he did in his usual masterly style. The preamble of the U. N. I. A. was next read by the first vice-president. Mr. Headley, so that the foundation of the organization might properly be understood by those who have never heard it before. The lady president, Mrs. DeGeneste, electrified the audience with a brilliant address. She gave numerous reasons why all Negroes of the world should affiliate with the U. N. I. A. During her discourse she pointed out the undomocratic spirit which exists between the young women of our race who are college graduates from such schools as William and those who and wisdom and these are less fortunate. She hoped that the day is not far distant when these college graduates will impart some of their knowledge to those who really are in need. If this is not done then their education will benefit the race nothing. She emphasized strongly her birthplace and under what conditions she was forced to live. In her closing remarks she cited the heroism of Toussaint L'Ouverture, meanwhile making a fervent appeal for membership in the U. N. I. A. She took her seat amid prolonged cheers. To satisfy the audience she recited one of her original poems on Marcus Garvey. The president of the Lynn Forum, Mr. Hargrave, spoke very encouragably, and his remarks were full of inspiration. First Vice-President Headley took for his subject "A Voice of One Crying in the Wilderness." He kept the audience in good humor while he drove home with telling force some practical thoughts. He said it is for him to inform them that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is an organization that seeks to unite into one solid body the .400,000,000 Negroes of the world; to link up the 15,000,000 Negroes of the United States of America with the 20,000,000 Negroes of the West Indies, the 40,000,000 Negroes of South and Central America with the 200,000,000 Negroes of Africa for the purpose of battering their industrial, commercial, educational, social and political condition. He emphasized very strongly that every Negro, man and woman, should respond to the appeal of the Hon. Margus Garvey. He explained the meaning of "Back to Africa," which is so often used as propaganda against the U. N. L. A. He concluded by saying that God Almighty has preserved us after 200 years of tribulation for some purpose, and it behooves us as a people to listen to the voice in the wilderness, which is the Uhiversal Negro Improvement Association, accept its doctrines and be prepared to take our place as a recognized empire among the other nations of the world. He also drew comparisons from the career of George Washington, and showed that Hon. Marcus Garvey was a man with vision, perspective and courage. Create Gas, Sourness and Pain How to Treat. Medical authorities state that nearly nine-tenths of the cases of stomach trouble, indigestion, sourness, burning, gas, bloating, nausea, etc., are due to an excess of acid in the mouth and in the stomach and not, as some believe, to the lack of digestive juices. The delicate stomach lining is irritated, digestion is delayed, and food spurs, counting the disprotable symptoms which every stomach sufferer knows so well. Artificial digestants are not needed in each case and may do real harm. Try laying eggs all digestive aids and instead get from any drugist a few ounces of Hematite Magnesia and take a tempeous to a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of oxybenzoic acid and there is no sourness, and be painless. Hematite Magnesia (in powder or rubble form—never liquid) is humourous to the stomach, digestive to skin and is the most abundant form of magnesia for stomach ailments. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with so HON. R. L. POSTON, SECY GENERAL OF THE U. N. I. A. WARNS HIS NATIVE STATE Bv S. J. JOHNSON As meetings of Louisville Division No. 160, Universal Negro Improvement Association, held on May 2, 4, 6, Hon. R. L. Poston, Secretary General, explained the aims and objects of the association to the citizens of Louisville. The following program was rendered: Opening ode, "From Greeland's Icy Mountains," by the U. N. I. A. choir. Invocation, from the Constitution. Address of welcome by Capt. G. G. Yourof. Response by Samuel Hopkins. Selection by the People's Glee Club. The lady president than made a few encouraging remarks, and Vice-President Hugh R. King did likewise. The speaker of the evening was then introduced by S. L. Johnson, who said that it afforded him great pleasure to introduce the man who is steering the ship of liberty, the ship of freedom and the ship of Africa's redemption for the Negroes of the world. Hon. R. L. Poston, secretary-general, spoke for about an hour, holding the audience spellbound by his fervent and lucid explanation of the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. The following day the secretary-general visited Simmons University and Central High School, creating much enthusiasm among the students for the association. Dr. C. H. Parish, president of Simmons University, said that the association had been misrepresented in this city. The following contributed to the association: S. J. Johnson, Jr.; $5; Oliver Jackson, $5; Jeff McClain, $2; Charles Telley, $2; Frank Wilson, $1; Tom Johnson, $2; Richard Devey, $1; Wm. Talbott, $1; Wm. Griffin, $1; Tom Kittrell, $1; H. R.

A., after a long and bitter struggle to prevent the disintegration which threatened during the last months of 1922, when the terrible economic depression that prevailed made the disbandment of the division a strong probability, has come to life with renewed vigor and is prepared to climb the winding paths of progress with enthusiasm. The dogged determination, the undaunted courage and the unparalleled perseverance of Mr. E. Blackwood, a former president; Mr. Denton Burke, the executive secretary; our first vice-president, and a number of other notable members of our ladies division, cannot be too highly commended. The new year, however, bringing with it improvement in the financial condition of our people, has afforded us the opportunity to cease marking time and move forward, onward and upward, with vigor. Enthusiasm runs high and keen interest is being taken by all classes in the progress of the Universal Negro improvement Association at home and abroad. This division notes with pride the progress of our sister divisions, Barnes, Moron and Neuvitas. With the inborn desire of humanity to be always among those at the top, we urge the residents of our vicinity to back up the cause financially, morally and intellectually, thereby restoring Camaguey division to its former position of honor among the other divisions of Cuba and other parts of the world. For some time the rainy season has hampered the work of this division, but we are undaunted, realizing that the enforced short rest will leave us in a better position to push ahead when the opportunity presents itself. Camaguey division sends greetings to her sister divisions all over the world, and pray that they as well as ourselves will always hold steadfast, immovable, will help to emancipate 400,000,000 Negroes throughout the world and at last enable them to redeem their old home, Africa. Yours in the cause, AUBREY J. JONES. President Camaguey Division. April 18, 1923. We wish to think The Negro World for its aid in helping it to boost our union work.

On the second Sunday, in this month the union meeting was held in the hall of No. 163 Division. East End. Even though it rained, this did not dampen the ardor of these Universal members and friends. The program, headed by Master J. Stanford, a twelve-mile Garvayelle, who usually electrifies the audience, was pleasing and entertaining. No. 6 Choir, under the masterful direction of Mr. Snead and Slater White, with her Black Cross Nurses, lent color and enthusiasm to the occasion. After seeing the place, where our meeting was to be, President Johnson, of No. 22 Chapter, Norfolk, Va., came over and gave a short talk. Mr. Spivly, outlined the political situation surrounding the jittery question in this city. President Godfrey put snap and life in the meeting by emphasizing the fact that time, as an important factor, had to be observed under his leadership. On the second Sunday in May, which is the 13th, the union meets at Sater Creek Chapter. All Universal members and friends in this vicinity are expected to avail themselves of the opportunity to attend this meeting. W. COLATUS DREW, Sec. 2805 Chestnut avenue, Newport News, Va.

No authority has been given for the organization of such a chapter nor has a charter been granted. All members of the association as well as the public are duly warned and instructed to beware of any person or persons connected with this so-called chapter. Certain persons suspended and expelled from the Kingston division have allied themselves with and formed this so-called chapter, to the detriment and embarrassment of said division.

What does he mean when he says that he shall expect all help possible from your excellent paper to put his new church venture properly before the Negroes of the world? Again, he says that in the near future he shall be trailing extensively in the interest of his denomination and that he will do all in his power to assist in a general way in increasing the circulation of your paper. Mr. Editor, am I to understand that The Negro World is to be used only as a convenience by those who wish to foster something for their personal aggrandizement? Isn't it the fact that Mr. West not very, long ago was in the employ of the U. N. I. A. as commissioner, where he had every opportunity to prove himself worthy of leadership? Has the power of the U. N. I. A. waned and is it no longer capable of aiding in solving the problems of the race, leaving it an easy prey to the learned doctor to be used in directing our attention to his new church venture? Has not the Rev. West given the world proof I have not questioned the honest learned from him who he entitled them to shores as commissioner of the W. N. I. A., when he probed to be not only a miserable failure, but a coward and first-class hypocrisy as well.

The motion was refused and the hearing dismissed on Friday. The indictment The defendants were charged under two indictments, which were consolidated and which set out in part the charge as follows: That at all times from June 21, 1819, to the time of the filing of this indictment the Black Star Line, Inc., was a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the City of Delaware, with the City of New York and through of Manhattan, that the capital stock of said corporation at the beginning was $500,000.00, divided into 100,000 shares of par value of $5.00 each and that on December 22, 1819, the capital stock of said corporation was increased to $100,000.00, divided into 2,000,000 shares of the par value or $5.00 each; That on to wit, the dates specified in the last paragraphs of the counts of this indictment, at the Southern District of New York and within the jurisdiction of this court, Marcus Garvey, Ellis Garcier George Toblin and Orlando M. Thompson, named as defendants herein and hereafter referred to as the defendants, had therefore devised a scheme and artifice to defraud Louis Schenectady, a sponsor Scotch Whiskey, St. Paul, Addie Still, and divers other persons whose names are to the grand jurors unknown (a class of persons residing within the United States and not susceptible by reason of their great number and lack of information on the part of the grand jurors of being named herein, to present any and all persons whom the defendants could induce to purchase stock in the Black Star Line, Inc., said persons being hereafter referred to as the victims) of their money and property in and by inducing fraudulent representations, pretenses and by promises and by deceptive artifice and with their money and property in the purchase of shares of the capital stock of the Black Star Line, Inc., said scheme and artifice being more particularly set forth as follows: that one or more ships, and be secured and an excursion boat should be operated by said corporation and that, in substance, it should be falsely said, fraudulently represented, presented and promised, in literature circulating, by said corporations, of said corporation that the operations of said ships and said excursion boat were the visible evidence of the prosperity and success of said corporation; when, in truth and in fact, said ships and said excursion boat, as said defendants then and there well knew, were, and at all times would be, operated at a loss, it being the intent and purpose of said defendants in so representing, pretending and promising that said victims should be decived into being, and so after excursion was and would be worth the price at which it was being sold and offered for sale. It was intended by said defendants as a further part of said science and artifice that it should be represented, pretended and promised that a stewardship larger than any which they, the said defendants, had therefore intended to secure and to be known as the "Phyllis Wheatley" should be taken over by the said corporation after inspection, and that such stewardship should sail for Africa with passengers and freight; when, in truth and in fact, no such stewardship existed. It being the intent and purpose of said defendants in so repreparating and protesting to secure money and property from old victims for freight and passage to Africa and to deceive" said victims into believing that the stock of said corporation was and would be worth the price at which it was being sold and offered for sale; It was intended by said defendants as a further part of said scheme and artifact that financial statement should be prepared and should be spread upon the minutes of said corporation that such financial statement should be false and fraudulent. In that it should be made to appear that said corporation had an organization expense of $268,066.27, when, in truth and in fact, as said defendants and then three knew, no such sum had been so spent; and in, order that such statement should create a belief that a great corporation had been built up and should be effective in stimulating stock sales and should deceive said victims and the public generally, it was intended further by said defendants that it, the said false and fraudulently, financial, statement, should be copied into and circulated by the "Negro World," a newspaper controlled by said defendants; It was 'infended by said defendants, so it further, part of said scheme and ordinance, to sell, offer (to sale and cause to be sold) and offered for sale in safe time shares of the capital stock of the Black Star Line, Inc. and for the purpose of inducing the said victims with their money and property the purchase of said stock so in order to be sold and offered for sale, and to entertain (in the remainder of the paragraphs referred to as "wr" to the remainder, intended informatively to inform, pro- sued and promised to aid victims and each of them that the Black Star Line offered a great opportunity to over-Negro to invade, against insurrections that there would be a smaller demonstration at Madison Square Garden October 26, 1918, to celebrate the launch of the Black Star line, the steamship S. S. "Frederick Douglas," that the S. S. "Frederick Douglas," the first ship of the Black Star line, had been launched on the Stairway of October 2918, and made history for the Negro; that three ships were about and that we must host one every three months until we build up one more, that amidst difficulties we are able to bring into real existence a corporation that now holds a high place among the great business institutions of the day; that we have placed the race 100 per cent among the great commercial institutions of the world; that we now have under our control three ships and we are making a desperate effort to acquire the greatest ship of all, and one that is to convey to Africa our workers and materials for the building up of the great Republic of Liberia for the race; that the Black Star Line S. S. Corporation has made up efforts to add ships of large tonnage to the ships now under and to control the dollar concern; that the proceeds of the dollar drive will be used to donate mother ship supplies and specially conveniently for the airy trade; that all our time, all our energy, all our ability as the greatest nation in the world; that between these three agencies, the African Redemption Fund, the Black Star Line S. S. Corporation and the looming to the Universal Negro Improvement Association's construction loan, you (referring to the victims) will enable us to cement the finances of purse as to make it possible for us, through this organization, not only to build a nation, but to blind ourselves as one industrial power among the other races, and nations of the world, and that whatever might have been the errors of the past, the present administration of the Black Star Line is composed of trained business men and specialty service help, equally equal in the aforesaid representations, pretences and promises, as said defendants, and each of them then and there well knew, was and would be false and fraudulent, and the said defendants, in making them intended thereby to deceive and defraud and victims by inducing them to pave with their money and property in the purchase of sold stock as aforesaid. And it was further part of said scheme and sclence that the said defender should each appropriate and convert to this own use the form or clause of salary, drawing account, expenses, commissions and profits, a part of the money and property which would be paid by said victim in the purchase of stock of the said Black Star Line, Inc., as a soresaid, but the exact form or clause in which each said defendant intended to convert and appropriate to his own use such part of said money and property and the exact amount thereof that each said defendant intended thus to appropriate and convert, is to the grand jurors unknown: And said defendants so having devised and intended to deceive the filiora said scheme and artifice did, on the 21st day of December, 1926, at the Southern District of New York and within the jurisdiction of this court, for the purpose of executing said scheme and artifice and attempting to do, unlawfully, knowingly and wilfully, placed and caused to be placed in a postoffice of the United States, that is to say, a post office in the City and County of New York, in the Southern District of New York, to be sent and delivered by the post office establishment of the United States to the addresses thereof, a certain letter enclosed in a post-paid envelope, addressed to: *Louis S.

(Signed) WILLIAM HAYWARD. H. S. Attorneys Panelling the Jury The panelling of the jury occupied the greater portion of the day on Friday and the right of challenge was freely exercised on both sides. Mr. McDougall subjected each juryman to a searching examination. The first question was: How long have you resided in the United States? Have you heard of or have you read in the newspapers of Marcus Garvey and his work, and if so, has it prejudiced your mind against him? "You see the defendants," said Mr. McDougall. "They are all colored men. Will that fact prejudice you in any way against them? Would the fact that they are offenses of another country that they come from the West Indies, or anywhere else, influence you? Would the fact that they are charged with using the marks to defraud, influence you? Would the fact that large sums of money had been invested by stockholders? Would the fact that large sums of money involving thousands of dollars invested by small investors, and lost, influence you against the defendants? During the trial, if the evidence presented is not sufficient, and there be a reasonable doubt in their merit would you give the defendants the benches, are before you? Would the fact that the defendants were engaged in a charity lawsuit carrying merchandise between the West Indies and this country or between this country and African influence you in any way against the defendants? Will you, in listening to the evidence in this case, keep an open mind and not reach a decision, until all the facts are before you? District Attorney Matlacks submitted with reference to the question of "reasonable doubt" that it was a matter for the judge to direct the jury in his charge to them. Judge Mack: The judge will charge the jury, as he is bound to charge that unless the government, prove guilty an illiquid doubt an equitable of the defendant must follow. Mr. McDougald proceeded with the examination of the jurymail. "Have you any prejudice against the particular form of charge—using the mails to defraud? "Have any of you gentlemen had any business transactions with the U. N. J. A. or with the Black Star line. "Are any of you associated with any organization for the advancement of colored people? "Are you opposed to any lawful effort on behalf of the colored people of this country or of any country to establish and maintain as they think best for themselves a government of their own? "Are you interested in any of the governments dominating and controlling any part of Africa? "Are you interested in the promotion of any stock company? "Are you interested in the most part answered satisfactorily. Those who did not come up to the standard were challenged and another juryman balloted for. He Had Formed an Opinion A Mr. James Lord was called in the place of a gentleman asked to stand down. "How long have you resided in New York?" was Mr. McDougall: first question. "Twenty years," replied Mr. Lord. "Have you ever heard of the defendant, Marcus Garvey, or have you read anything of his work?" "I have read a great deal of the Garvey case, and have formed an opinion—a personal opinion." "Very well," said Mr. McDougall blainly, and Mr. Lord made way for another taleman. He Would Be Influenced Mr. Michael E. Hirkey was called in place of Mr. Lord. "In place of you, I resided in New York, Mr. Hirkey?" asked the learned counsel for the defense. "Forty years," was the reply. "You see the defendants—they are all colored men. Will that reason prevent you in any way from passing impartially upon them in this trial?" The juror shook his head. "Have you read anything about the work of Garvey and have you formed any opinion as regards to it?" Another shake of the head, indicating a negative reply. "Will the fact that they are not citizens of this country enter into your consideration at all?" "No," was the laconic response. "Was it throne telephone? "The fact that they controlled large sums of money of the corporation--money amounting to a million dollar--proposed to me against them?" Another shake of the head. The next two were excused by both sides. **Challenged by the Government** Thomas Reilly, an elderly man, said in answer to Mr. McDongall he had resided in New York all his life. He had read something about the Garvey movement and that they contemplated establishing a republic in Africa, but that fact would not prejudice him in the trial of the defendants, nor would the fact that they were all colored men and not citizens influence him in any way. Mr. Reilly answered all Mr. McDongall's questions satisfactorily, but he evidently did not satisfy the District Attorney, who challenged him. During the examination of the jury in the afternoon Mr. McDongall proposed a new question: "Should it develop during the trial that from the evidence they were guilty of some other charge other than that for which they were indicted, would that prejudice their minds in arriving at their verdict." The District Attorney now took a hand in the questioning, but his questions were put in a tone inaudible to the reporters. He made quite a number of peremptory challenges, consented to some, and after examination, asked quite a few to step down. One juryman admitted he had lost a lot of money dealing in stock on the stock exchange and for that reason he would be prejudiced against the defendants. The Jury Selected The following were finally selected and sworn "to return a true verdict according to the evidence" and for the next three weeks it is expected they will be engaged hearing the case. William J. Carr, 81 Clifford avenue, Pelham; C. Delanna Knapp, 214 Riverside Drive; Samuel J. Moorehead, 155 W. 79th street; Martin J. Cregan, 389 Engle avenue, Bronx; George B.

THE OPENING ADDRESS Promoter: Trips to Make H Appear That He Is Not Against U. N. L. A. But Survey! Survey! Started to seek to bring the sale to the government. "Department of the Navy," he said, "it is always difficult to determine how much stand is required to defend. These government officers of the Black Star Line and they are charged with misuse of byference and in fact that they were the owners of several shipments which they would operate as passenger ships between this country and Africa and this country and the West Indies and also on the coast of the false and fraudulent pretenses. they induced large numbers of poor persons to part with their money and invest in the stock. He desired to make it clear from the very outset of the case that the government was not interested in anybody's dreams. It was not interested in anything about the formation of a government for the supposed betterment of anyone. All the government was interested in were the inducement offered by which people were victimized into investing their money. There was no law against a man endeavoring to crystallize his ideas or his beliefs into what he considered something for the betterment of his people. But there was a law against a man fooling, against a man scheming and obtaining money by false representations. The government, and the prosecutor in particular, respected the efforts of any people to better their condition, and he wanted it very clearly understood that in so far as the scheme for a social and political betterment of the people was concerned they had no quarrel with the people who were honestly striving to uphill themselves or whose idea of betterment took the form that was outlined in their plan. All the government was interested in. was the methods that were employed in operating the Black Star Line and marketing its stock. He did not propose to go into details of the testimony that would be presented. But he proposed to show very briefly what became of the money. He further proposed to show the medium by which the money was collected. First it was through the medium of advertisement in the Negro World and by speeches and articles written by Garvey in the Negro World and supported by circulars and other literature sent through the mails. The bulk of the material during the course of the trial may therefore may not readily understand. If at any there was doubt as to the meaning of anything he would be only too glad to explain it to the jury. The Black Star Line, as he told them, was incorporated in June or July, 1919, in the State of Delaware. The first boat bought by them was the "Yarmouth" and she made two or three trips abroad. The second was the "Shady-side," which had also made two or three trips; then the boat, the "Kanawa," which made one trip to the West Indies. Then they bought or contemplated buying the "Phyllis Wheath" which, they represented, to take passengers to Africa, but which they never had delivery of. The monies for the three boats were obtained from the inventors of poor people. The Black Star Line today was defunct and was represented by less than nothing, and by that he meant the corporation had more debts against it than it had assets. He asked the jury to discharge from their minds everything except a purely business consideration. He "felt sure these were not one of them who would quarrel with the defendants for trying to help their people, bettering their conditions, but the government contended they had not benefited their people but had used the social side of it to "bucket" their investments, which was wrong. Forty thousand people were today worse off for this concern. Garvey was the moving spirit of it. everybody and Thompson was the only person. But they should have taken survey himself that the widow would. The one would be a complete act, and but he would round them there was a big difference between his untempted endeavor for the backstreet of a people and the victimizing them of their hard earned money. He would put his witnesses before them in strange and he anticipated they would have a difficult job, but he would be ready to explain everything that, they could not understand. All they had to do was to ask and he would lighten them on any point. The jury were asked not to discuss the court-attempted until 10:30 Monday. Dear Sir--I wish to ask you if you will be so kind as to publish a few words regarding our black people in Transvaal. South Africa, which is one of the worst places under the sun for black people. We are being taxed to pay £2 10s. poll tax yearly. We have no voice in Parliament or elsewhere and do not get anything done at all for us. The locality where we live is in such a condition if one of our Negro brethren should come he wouldn't like to live here for one moment. Further, we had a court case about this poll tax, which we lost. We appealed to the Supreme Court of Transvaal and we also lost it there, so I will conclude with our best wishes to the Blackman and its staff. Youra faithfully, H. L. Thumbur. BLACK CROSS NURSES OF MORON, CAMAGUEY May 8, 1973 I desire to announce that the Black Cross Nurses of Liberty Hall, Moron, have under their present management acquired a well-deserved reputation. We beg to make mention that since the Black Cross nurses reorganized we have arrived at the conclusion that they have been the most successful in the history of this division. They have been the means of attracting to the hall a fairly good amount of native visitors, and have done much to invite many promising youths to fall in line with us and to advertise the U. N. I. A. branch in Moron and its various engagements. Much praise is due Mrs. Louise Osborne, matron, and Miss B. Robinson for their great interest demonstrated in preparing our Black Cross nurses for a brighter future. In behalf of all the branches scattered over the world continued success, and that they may face their obligations like harrows whatever they may be, and drive their way to the onward march, never looking back, until the pinnacle of Africa be reached and the song of victory written on the flag of the Red, Black and Green.

Et ambiente de-la con® -ferencia era de serenidad y confian- za. Es necesario tomar en cuenta este hecho al juzgar los-frutos: algo raquiticos de la asamblea. La ma- yoria de las naciones se sentian sa- tisfechas con dejar correr las cosas como iban y con aplazar cualquier iniciativa sobre roposiciones politi cas de trascendencta como las que contenia el.programa uruguayo. El momento no es oportuno aun para una asociacién americana mas oficial. Tal asociacién ha existido por cerca de un siglo y se ha for- talecido con los ajios, a pesar de no estar incluida en un tratado escrito. América es una unidad politica, for- mada por soberanias ligadas amisté= samente. El contraste extraordina- rio entre este sistema continental y el de Europa es uno de los hechos mis salientes de la historia moderna. Por causa-de ello concedidse es- casa atencion a la sugestion de que la alianza ‘del nuevo mundo necesi- t4ba una base registrada oficial- mente. Igualmente, Ja proposician de hacer una asercién conjunta de la doctrina Monroe fué tranquila- mente aband@ada, La*doctrina Monroe, conto Mr. Fletcher, indicd, est extraordinariamente mal inter- pretada en la constitucién de Ia liga de naciones.. No es un convenio regional. No es en absoluto un con- venio siquiera. Es una declaracion unilateral de la politica nacional de los Estados Unidos. Cualquier otra nacidn americana esta en libertad de hacer una declaracion similar, La doctrina Monroe es ya totalmente comprensiva en cuanto concietna a las Américas. El presidente Ed- wards de la conferencia de Chile confirmé gentilmente este punto de vista, al hacer nqlar: El eqpirita de Monroe se ha extendido,por toda la. extension de America: -— EL que la Argentina, Chile y el Rrasil no Negaran a establecer un convenio de limitacién de. sus apres- (os navales no fué un fracaso de ia conferencia, Esa limitacién con- cernia solo a las potencias det AB C. Pueden continuar sus negocia~ cinnes entre ellas. Un, tribunal permanente ameri- ano de justicia puede contarse entre jos constructivos: trabajos para el orvenir. Enearna un ideal que las Américas aceptan. Se ha hecho al- yin avance hacia él con Ia convo- ‘acién del congresa panamericano le juristas en Rio de Janerio en 1925 para codificar las leyes inter- racionales ameritanas.

Una parte de la humanidad esta determinada a destruir Ja otra;-las razas preparan controversias con el objeto de -salvar la existencia de cada cual y en esta rigida com- petencia por un .puesto de superioridad, no ‘podemos ni debemos menos que solidificarnos para lograr nuestra propia salvacién en este periodo de ruina que nos amenaza.

Sera inutil cl tratar de zanjar esta cuestién humana con oraciones 6 con palabras; ella podra zanjarse solamente por’ medio de Ja fuerza, siendo ¢sta el primer recurso de Jas razas v de las naciones.cn este siglo XX. Inglaterra habla contando con suff -’:za y poder; Franciavy las demas Znaciones de ‘Europa: hablan con fuerza y poder en su lenpuaje-y las razas 6 los pueblos que no puedan presentar al mundo una fuerza organizada pereceran:naturalmente, arrollados per la marea de una opresién racial. Estas naciones estan hoy mas que nunca determinadas a sub- yugar y explotar sus respectivas colonias y demas estaria recurrir a cllas implorando miscricordia, pucs sus términos de hermandad cristiana son las libras esterlinas y los francos. Inglaterra, Francia, Italia, Belgica, todas quieren dinero y del tinico sitio que ellas pueden sacarlo hoy dia es de Africa, explotando al fais, tierra de nuestros ante- pasados, sin Consideracién humana, Si ellas pretenden profesar otra intencién que la del oro, estamos com- prenctrados de qirc tales pretencioncs son falsas, mentiras, hipocrecias. Que hablen Cecil, Bryan y Mussolini; sus voces se perderan cn las selvas africanas, porque ninguna atencién hemos de prestar a’ sus habladuriasx Ya escucha- mos antcriormente a Chatham, a Gladstone y a Cham- berlain y de su profesién de amor humano y. de considera- cién ceistiana vemos que el Africa ha pagado su precio con sangre y riquezas para el engrandecimiento del imperio briténico. Nuestra raza csta ‘cansada ya de esta clase de politica hipécrita y cl Negro del-presente no ha de escuchar otra voz.que aquella que Ie determine el entrar en accién. La voz que nos ordena continuar adelante en nombre de una raza emancipada yuna patria-redimida, es la voz que_dice: Marchad adelante con la esperanza de un futuro mas bril- lante y descartaos de las influencias del pasado. Hemos Ilegado al cruce en’ el camino de nuestro destino y noj: hemos de necesitar por mas tiempo: de la guia 6 ayuda politica de otra raza alguna. Cada dia que-pasa y cada aflo que transcurre nos sentimos. mas decepcionadés dependiendo de los demas. ‘En America somos gradual- mente anulados politica y cconémicamente; en el imperio britaénico somos.la unica: victima de una diplomacia mali- ciosamente elaborada; en Francia somos el blango’de una}; certeza estadistica. ~ ; Los dias de esclavitud no han:desaparecido aun de Ia}! superficie del globo; la esclavitud ‘amenaza a cada raza y a cada nacién que permanezca débil y. reuse or-|! ganizar sus fucrzas para su proteccién propia; la esclavitud | ; no tiene dia ni, hora; se presenta toda vez que las razas y Maciones fuertes desean oprimir a Jos pueblos débiles.|' Con tal motivo el futuro de nuestra raza estaria profetizado, |' toda vez que no nos constituyamos en una fuerza racial, |; on-un poder racial,-en una indeperidgencia nacional y|! politica.
