The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro Negro World Reaching the Mass of Negroes The Best Advertising Medium A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race NEGROES OF THE WORLD MOURN THE DEATH OF A GREAT WHITE AMERICAN FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: The hand of death has removed from our midst Warren G. Harding, President of the United States, and a voice that was once loud and clear, that resounded around the world, is now silent, to be heard no more. A Friend of the Negro Race Notwithstanding opinions to the contrary, Harding was, to my way of thinking, a true friend of the Negro race, as far as we can expect friendship from members of the opposite race who have not yet discovered their souls. His Speech at Birmingham The President's speech at Birmingham in 1921 on the race question was one that revealed his depth of thought for the Negro and marked him as a careful student of world psychology. System and Environment If President Harding didn't openly do any good for the Negro it was because he envir turm and i leack things out re he tho associa Washu opinion Roosev. he believed it was right, and he opinion be hanged, if it flares against the resident Harding was too physically kind, gentle rate to knowingly offend by introducing inno-hanges, and that is why, although he felt for and with the Negro, he was unable to openly do him, because he was just afraid of hurting good, and that which must be permanent, we and public opinion. No better example of the is to pay in doing good can be found than that the Man Jesus, who, in a life of public activity, at to do good is to offend, and to suffer therefor. His Soul Humanly Right President Harding's soul was humanly right. He had a deep sense of human love. He desired to see all men free and happy. He prayed for that. He loved peace and justice, but he was not a Christ; he was not a Reformer. He was but a courageous and sympathetic twentieth century leader, who dared not break the bounds set by human public opinion. He was bold and courageous, however, he gave gone further than anyone else, excepting Wilcox, pointing to us that which we should do. If he had himself he would have been a Christ, and who knows if life did not fail Warren Gamaliel Harding because he failed to act the Christ? He failed to do the deed that would justify the righteousness of his own soul and elevate him above the rest of men. The Children of God If the world is God's, if the creatures therein are the children, if God, and we essay to lead believers, we know better than the rest of those who sin and miser, than it NEW YORK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 11, 1923 THE WORLD M OF A GREAT WH President Harding Was a Friend of the Negro, and Did as Much as His Environment World Allowed Him to Do HE HAD A BIG HUMAN SOUL, BUT THE WORLD NEEDS A CHRIST The Voice of Leadership Must Be Spiritual if It Is to Permanently Benefit Humanity WILSON AND HARDING WENT UP TO THE CROSS, BUT NOT THE CRUCIFICATION President's Speech at Birmingham Will Long Be Remembered becomes our duty and obligation not to only act human, but to act as a Christ in dispensing justice, love and mercy to all those who look up to us example we should follow, and those who must lead man after Christ cannot but expect to fail if they act not as He would. The Spiritual and Human of Leadership We cannot mix the human and spiritual of life in leadership of humanity. We cannot love and then hate We cannot be merciful and then revengeful; we cannot take from Paul and give to John. All these irregularities can be, however, if we do not lead; but if we lead, we must do as Christ would do, or else we ourselves suffer and not those whom we lead. Wilson and Harding Nearest the Christ Wilson and Harding came nearest to playing the Christ in the leadership of the American people, and in their lessons to the world, than any other human political leader of recent times. Wilson and Harding went up to the Cross, but they were afraid of the crucifixion. One fainted on the wayside; the other, because his life and works were in the immediate hand of God, died, and in his death we mourn, because we know he was only man, and not a Christ. The responsibility of leadership in a modern world after Christ is exceedingly great, and none of us, because of our imperfections, can see the glory of our work. In our sins of omission, caused through the preponderance of our human over our spiritual, we destroy the good of our work, as, no doubt, planned from the most righteous desire of service to humanity. No one will doubt that Harding planned to do good; and all will believe that he did his best as far as the human, in him went. No one will dispute that Harding was a successful, illustrious human being, that he attained great things for humanity as a leader, but his soul fajled him as a Christ in being just to all men. The loverable of the soul must be of the soul and not only of the heart but also of just to our fellows and win the love of God. This does not mean to say that our leaders should be bishops and priests, rather than statesmen. The bishop or priest is not the statesman, but the statesman must be bishop, priest and himself. To lead, and be spiritual, does not mean than we must be all humility and obliging; we must be ourselves; we must be like Christ; we must resist, yet not resist; we must fight, yet not fight; we must be JUST. Leadership Not a Mockery How just Warren Harding was, his God will tell, but those who follow him, and those who must lead, should learn that the responsibility is great, that it is not a mockery; it is a calling, and to each and every one there will come a summons to report the deeds of love, justice and mercy to the greatest of Judges, who pardons not after the judgment. The World Still in Chaos Harding has left the world still in chaos although he has been able to make a difference in the lives of the people. He has been able to save lives and to help people who are in danger. He has been able to provide justice to those who are in distress. Harding has been able to make a difference in the lives of the people. He has been able to save lives and to help people who are in danger. He has been able to provide justice to those who are in distress. Africa's Lesson to the World Africa has still its lesson to teach the world. We will teach man the way to life and peace, not by ignoring the rights of our brother, but by giving to everyone his due. We glory in Africa's new responsibility, for we know that the Psalmist made no mistake in prophesying that "Ethiopia shall stretch out her hands." The hand of justice, freedom and liberty shall be extended to all mankind, so that in the death of our leaders not only man will mourn, but the angels will rejoice in admitting into the kingdom of everlasting glory the faithful servants of the Son of Righteousness. Pray for Soul of Harding We pray for the soul of Warren G. Harding, deceased President of the United States of America, and trust that God's blessing will fall upon him for the good that he has done. With very best wishes for your success, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant, MARCUS GARVEY, President-General, UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. TOMBS PRISON, NEW YORK. P. S.—May I not ask all members, divisions, chapters and branches of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to make a special effort this month to get in constitutional financial standing with the Parent Body? The Parent Body of the Universal Negro Improvement Association needs all the help possible to continue and put over the big program connected to it. We cannot do more than with the help we get let it be your duty this month, and all through the year to send in your support. This is our convention month, and all local divisions are requested to keep up the organization spirit. Hold your meetings every night, if possible. Make a rally for new members, and keep the colors high. M. G. SPLENDID CELEBRATION OF INDEPENDENCE DAY OF U.N.I.A. Historic Anniversary Is Observed by Negroes in Every Part of the World WITH BEFITTING POMP AND CEREMONY NEW YORK LOCAL LEADS THE WAY NEW YORK LOCAL CELEBRATES THE ANNUAL ANNIVERSARY OF THEIR CONVENTION WITH POMP AND DIGNITY THE DAY STARTED WITH DIVINE SERVICE A Magnificent Parade, Which Brought Thousands of Spectators, Came as a Great Surprise to Harlem and Elicited a Wave of Enthusiasm for the Absent One Wednesday, August 1, was U. N. I. A. day in Harlem. To U. N. I. A. members throughout the world, August 1 has a special significance. On the 1st of August, 1920, the Negro peoples of the world held their first Convention under the auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in New York City. That Convention lasted thirty-one days and thirty-one nights. Delegates to that Convention, from far and near, returned to their communities inspired, and with a program; and proceeded to make history. Thereafter every year on the first day of August there was a re-union, when the chosen representatives of the people assembled to valve plans for the cementing of the race and for its uplift. August 1 accordingly became a U. N. I. A. holiday. The year 1923 has been an eventful one for the U. N. I. A. August 1 arrived to find its founder in a New York prison, placed there by the chicancery and craft and cunning of an unscrupulous group. But it arrived to find U. N. I. A. members throughout the world more closely welded together than ever more determined than ever in the history of the Association. It was decided that there be no annual Convention of the Negro peoples of the world this year, but that each branch of the U. N. I. A. should hold local Conventions, stage a great revival, and lay the foundation for the greatest Convention of In the ongoing a mass meeting was an excellent place for another good held as Liberty Hall when the staff within the room and but in the hearth auditorium was packed to the doors stand firm and see that the cause The various auxiliaries went through the gallant leader so fully exposed their exercises, after which an excellent went matching transpherically on left manual program was presented to Morus Garry he deceived in range which the Universal Baptist and Choic ing times was the Negro hope.

Great Mass Meeting In the evening a man meeting was held in Liberty Hall when the great auditorium was packed to the doors. The various auxiliaries went through their exercises, after which an excellent musical program was presented, to which the Universal Band and Choir, under the direction of Prof. Arnold ASPIRIN Say "Bayer" and Insist!

G., a Negro poet of ability and a credit to the race on the chairman said in his introductory remarks. Mr. Hestings declared that nothing was to be a cricket to chance. What to our finite needs was more chance was simply unproved law. The Negro was bound to rise more to dominion and power, for life moved in a cycle. He bid Negroes to be self-reliant. Too much dependence on the yellow man who next seemed slated for power, should not be encouraged. If Hone was not sufficient unto himself he might find that he was worse off under Shem than under Japheth. He ended with an appeal to Negroes to subdize their men of vision, whatever rijge so that the race's men and sorrows, its struggles and troubles might be preserved for future. He hid them not be unintended over Marcus Garvey's inauguration, for greatness always carried a sacrifice, and the greater the sacrifice he had to make. They must strive and so act, their actions en to show to the world that their leader's sacrifice was not vain. Owing to the lateness of the hour protocols prepared by Sir Wm. H.

It adds: "They will undoubtedly henceforth see in them nothing but Frenchmen because Frenchmen, and will recall that their own country, like ours, accepted during the war the co-operations of black troops." "The editorial concludes by pointing out that Frenchmen willingly submit to the "dry" regulations when in the United States, and adds: "Our foreign friends will as willingly submit to a regulation not imposed by law but by our character and habits."

Well, somebody may say, "Why in the world they want to go there, since it is so hard and rough." You can no more jump out of your destiny than you can out of your skin. You just have to do certain things. The great criticism of Marcus Garvey is that the Black Star Line went under.

The state man, especially in Europe, was going strong, and the Negro was following him in his work. But the must not lose its spiritual means. This was a train age. Given it, we must take on the uphighway of children who must be equipped to the struggle ahead. The Negro gave his life on the fields of blood on Flinders and France, the Negro remained here and contributed the Red Cross to the work and every cross but their own. The Negro took the first second third, fourth and fifty Liberty loans. The Negro did everything he should do. The Negro who during the war, was the faithful Fidel to this country, once President Wilson would not contide his personal protection of night but colored White House bodyguard. The Negro returned to find the burial legions of race pride trace buried, infiltrations, insults of oil sorts, inqualities, and the result of it was near Negroes from the borders of Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, from the Atlantic to the Pacific had fallen under a wet blanket of flood.

The American people from coast to coast and from the lakes to the gulf, and in the territories beyond the seas, bowed their heads, in grief, for their President was dead. In the early hours of last Thursday, after a day which had brought renewed hope of recovery, death came suddenly of cerebral apoplexy. The end came suddenly and without even a second of warning at half-past seven o'clock on Thursday August 5. There was no time to summon additional physicians, no time to call the members of his official family, and no time for medical skill to exercise its knowledge. It was all over in the twinkling of an eye, and it left a nation and the world shocked and in grief. Face Peaceful in Death As in life, so is President Harding in the quiet dignity of death, calm, composed, and of peaceful mien, wrote a special correspondent from San Francisco. In a gray draped room far above San Francisco's busiest street, all that was mortal of America's twenty-ninth President reposed. Death in coming had left no mark upon his countenance. So suddenly, so painlessly had the end come that his face, but for its pallor, might have been that of a man in sleep. But for the closing of the eyelids by loving fingers, it was as it had been a moment after the President, pleased by what Mrs. Harding was reading to him; had said: "That's good. Go on; read some more." President Harding's mind was clear to the last. Never for a moment, according to the Secretary Hoover of the Commerce Department, who had been extremely close to him, did his mind wonder even under the burning of the fever from which he suffered, and his demonor throughout his illness, was composed and collected, even occasionally verging on the humorous. President Harding died at half-past seven o'clock Thursday night from a stroke of apoplexy, after having almost won his fight against blinfcho-pneumonia and other complications. Two nurses were the only other persons in the room, and there was no time for a last word from the nation's leader, either to his wife or to the republic he served. A shudder shook his frame, weakened by seven days of illness and worn by a fire was out, our seven days of silent though intense suffering had left their mark, and a stroke of apoplexy came without an instant's warning and before physicians could be called members of his party summoned or remedial measures taken. Mrs. Harding had only time to rush to the door and call 'Fred Dr. Hope and the other's quick!' meaning the physicians Brigadier General Charles E. Sawyer, personal physician to the President, was in a near by room, but when he hurried into the President's chamber medical skill was assesed. The four members of President Harding's Cabinet who were in San Francisco when their chief passed away and Speaker Gillett joined in a statement which, speaking for themselves and Mrs. Harding, expressed gratitude and thanks for the sympathy shown by the people. Warren Gamblei Harding, twenty-ninth President of the United States, was an outstanding example of the self-made American, rising from the humblest of beginnings to the proudest position in the greatest country in the world. And his life was one of slow but steady progress, with no sensational leaps over the rougher spots, and his conduct ever has been that of the honest, clean-living, God-fearing man, with a firm belief in himself and a respect for the rights of others. Although practically all of his time since leaving college has been spent in the newspaper business and in politics, it is said that Mr. Simmons, says: "I have been in the drug business nearly fifty years. For a long time I have been troubled with indigestion, water brash, sour stomach, etc. Last winter I contracted a severe cold and took a bottle of to break it. To my surprise it not only cured the cold but while taking it I was not bothered with indigestion or acid stomach. It does me more good for this trouble than anything I have taken." Mr. Simmons' initials are M. D. and his address Harrisburg, Ark. Being a druggist of more than limited experience, Mr. Simmons knew perfectly well what he was doing when he selected Pe-ru-na for his own use from among his large and assorted stock of medicines. CHAPPELL, Neb., Aug. 5.—A serpious wreck of the special train carrying the body of Warren G. Harding and the Presidential party to Washington was barely averted near this station just before 5 o'clock this afternoon when a tire on one of the engine driving wheels slipped loose and came part of the way off. Only the fact that the engineer had slowed up slightly to pass through the crowd gathered at the Chappell depot saved Mrs. Harding, the Cabinet officials and the remainder of the party from a dangerous crash. With a series of bumping jerks, the engineer slapped on the emergency brakes. Examination showed that the tire, a piece of steel three inches thick, was half off the driving wheel. Wreck Would Have Followed Had it come clear off with the train running at high speed the special had been maintaining all day, railroad men declared it would have torn into the engine and thrown it off the track. Telegrams were immediately dispatched to catch the safety pilot engine which is preceding the funeral train by 20 minutes, and the special was delayed until the pilot returned. Beating the time of the crack overland flyers, the Harding funeral train is speeding eastward with few stops, slowing up only as it passes towns where groups of mourners stand. All the speedy transcontinental trains have been ordered side-tracked so as to let this train go by. Early today two overland trains were shunted to side-tracks near Medicine Bay, where they waited for hours to let the funeral special pass. Every time the train stops the question is asked from reverential crowds standing by: "How is Mrs. Harding?" The country's heart goes out to her in unmistakable words and she knows it and is cheered by it. But instead of being made weak and self-pitying by the sympathy that surrounds her, Mrs. Harding appears to gain strength from it. She said today she wished she could express to everybody the deep gratitude she feels for the thousands of expressions of sympathy that have reached her. "I can't ever tell these dear people how they have helped me and aphold me in this hour," she said, her hand on a stack of telegrams that keep pouring. for generations have worshipped in the Baptist faith. After completing the customary courses in the grammar schools Mr. Harding was enrolled as a student at Ohio Capital College, now defunct, at Berlin, Ohio, entering in 1579 and being graduated in 1587. He married Florence King of Marion, Ohio, July 8, 1891, and his wife always has been his candidate and adviser in his newspaper and political endeavors. He began his newspaper career in Marion in 1884, and at the time of and for some years preceding his election was president of the Harding Publishing Company, which published the Marion Daily Star. Even before he began his business career Mr. Harding took an active part in politics, exposing the cause of the Republican party. In 1960, he was elected to the first office, member of the Ohio Senate, which post he held for four years. Then he was Lieutenant Governor of his home State from 1964 through 1966. As the Republican nominee for Governor he was defeated in 1910, but the years later was elected to the United States Senate for a six-year term. In 1920 he designed, following his nomination for the presidency on the Republican ticket, at the national convention held in Chicago, and was elected on November 4 of that year by what was generally termed a "landslide vote." In the Electoral College he received 404 votes, while James M. Cogus, his Democratic opponent, was given burt 127. His inauguration took place on March 4, 1921. Garvey Sends Condolence On Behalf of Negroes of the World ALL FAITHS MOURN IN CHURCH AS ONE FOR DEAD LEADER Pastors of every religious faith in the city, held special services of tributes on Sunday to the memory of the late President. In those churches where the services were not especially in his memory prayers were offered and there was general mourning for him. President Harding was eulogized by preachers of all the Protestant creeds, by priests' of the Roman Catholic and the Greek Catholic churches, and by rabbis of the orthodox and reformed Jewish synagogues. Although a Baptist all his life and a trustee of the Trinity Baptist Church at Marion, President Harding never made his church, or any other, dominate his public affairs. Although a religious man, he was never called intolerant. So clergymen of all faiths devoted all or part of their sermons on Sunday to the late Chief Executive. Bishop William T. Manning delivered an address of eulogy on Mr. Harding at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. He declared in his sermon that the keynote, in the late Chief "Executive's life was "loyalty—loyalty" to home, to friends, to country and to God." "Our whole nation today is bound together in the bond of a common grief," he said. "Our people all over the land are in sorrow for the death of our beloved President. In sorrow such as this we regret the lesser things which separate and divide us. We realize we are one great family suttering a common loss. "There were four things which stood out in the life and character of President Harding and which had won him in singular degree the respect and affection of all his fellow-citizens: 1. His genuine kindness and consideration for others in all his dealings with them. 2. His strength of conviction combined with respect and tolerance for the views of others. "3. His deep loyalty to his country and his desire to do whatever was for the country's welfare, a loyalty which did not keep him from realizing our fellowship with all men and our responsibility for helping to bring peace to the world. 4. His simple and living faith in God and reverence for God's law. In his life three was a simple but deep re- igious note. Again and again in his BILLBRAND SUNDS HUMPHREY, MARY A. B.

Madam—The word has been one of its greatest advocates for justice and justice and America one of its trust and noblest song. Not only nation but the world of grateful people loving humanity mourn the loss of illustrious husband, and shall not forget the courage, manhood and character of Warren Gamaliel Harding. For hundred million Negroes of the world and fifteen million of America, particularly will ever remember the dear husband as a true and sincere friend of our race. His speech and advice to our race at Birmingham, Ala., is classic in the utterances of American statesmen on the race problem. We believe he was true and honest in his desire to see the Negro elevated to the standard of man, therefore, how could we do other then mourn with you from our deepest feeling of sorrow and regret in losing a true friend who was your loving and devoted husband, the like of whom the world may never see again. In the history of our race your beloved husband, as a friend and well-wisher of our progress, shall have a place, and our children shall be taught and they shall remember that amidst all the horrors of prejudice and injustice to the Negro in the civilization of the twentieth century they had one, in the person of your husband, who was always kind and considerate and who never called to lend a helping hand. Be assured, dear Madam, that the world of Negroes at this hour mourn with you and pray for the entrance of These were the last words of Warren G. Harding, spoken to Mrs. Harding as she sat by his bed in the Palace Hotel, San Francisco, reading from a magazine. The story was a laudatory one dealing with his activities in the White House. Once during the reading Mrs. Harding paused and glanced at the President reclining on his bed. "That's good," he said, referring to the last paragraph she had read. "Go on." And that brief sentence from the lips of the late President is pregnant with meaning for every one of us in every walk of life, and particularly to the leaders and members of the U. N. I.

CALVIN COOLIDGE GAINED FAME IN BOSTON POLICE STRIKE CALVIN COOLIDGE GAINED FAME IN BOSTON POLICE STRIKE Calvin Coolidge, who now becomes the thirtieth President of the United States, in the sixth Vice-President to succeed to higher office through the death of a President. In Massachusetts, where he spent more than twenty years in public office, the name of Calvin Coolidge is a synonym for independence, rugged honesty, simplicity of habits, courage, devotion to duty and the austere virtues generally associated with the farmer stock from which he sprang. Coolidge, who is fifty-one years old has constantly shunned publicity, living up to an adage of his own, "Let men in public office substitute the midnight oil for the light." Gained Chance Overnight When the Republican National Convention was held in June 1920, only a few months had elapsed from the time when overnight Calvin Coolidge, then serving his first term as Governor of Massachusetts, became the talk of the motion for the important port he had played in 'breaking' the police strike in Boston. What he did in 'gray cross' to stay the forces of disorder, to uphold American institutions and vindicate the principles of law won him communication训练 centers, United States Senators, members of the House of Representatives, and from a host of men of prominent life. Woodrow Wilson, then President of the United States, although of the opposite political faith, took occasion to send a message to Governor Coolidge, in which he lauded George upon him for the counsels and he had taken in that Why has been termed, The Great Adventure, in the public career of Cooke that called for the exercise of those qualities of courage and devotion that had been patient within him and only awaiting an opportunity to assert themselves, came in September, 1819. In thirty-seven cities in different parts of the country, missions had been formed within the uniformed police forces and became affiliated with the American Federation of L. Law Firms. He then immigrated to the museum and lived there for many years. He then died in the museum and his daughter was born here. She continued to live there and was the mother of the current woman.

WARREN G. HARDING THE President is dead. With appalling suddenness, at the close of the best day since his illness, the end came. He was fifty-seven years old. His devoted wife was at his side. A stroke of apoplexy was the cause of death. Warren Gamaliel Harding, twenty-ninth President of the United States, was singularly endowed by nature for a public career. Cast in heroic mold, he possessed an amiable disposition and a winning personality to which even political adversaries were compelled to bow. He was a high type of American who, born in lowly circumstances, had the ambition, the intelligence and the application to make his dreams come true. A gifted orator, intensely American, kindly in manner and with a democratic air of cheery good-fellowship, yet nevertheless he possessed the unconscious dignity that becomes a President of the United States. It is too early to attempt to appraise in detail the accomplishments of President Harding's all too brief term of office. That belongs to history. Much of his work needs time to reach fruition. The old, trite admonition to say nothing but good of the dead is scarcely needed in this instance. President Harding did some things upon which there was not universal agreement among his friends, but his mistakes, if they were mistakes, were of the heart. A kindly nature and keen sense of loyalty—a quality not so profuse these days that we can afford to carp at any display of it—at times led him astray, and the positiveness of the man's patience to recant. Take him all in all he was a very human be booke are balanced on his achievements in only just commenced to administer the task be found to overbalance the other to an extent The President, like all others in the limelight, had to face attacks of all kinds on his policies. And there will still be found those who will pursue that policy even now he is beyond the smiling and the weeping, even now he is where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest—beyond the reach of utterances that common decency (if courtesy is unknown) would forbid in chivalrous natures. But such is the lot of those who rise beyond the ordinary level, and such is the nature of those whose greatest aim indifference is to tear down and destroy. We repeat the words of condolence sent by Marcus Garvey from the Tombs—the full text of which message will be found in another part of this paper—that not only the nation but the world of grateful, peace-loving humanity mourn the loss of this illustrious man and never shall forget the courage, manhood and character of Warren Gamaliel Harding. The thoughtful of the fifteen millions of Negroes in America will ever remember the late President as a sincere friend of the race. His speech and advice to the race at Birmingham, Alabama, is a classic in the utterances of American statesmen on the race problem, and will remain a living monument to the man's sincere desire to see the Negro elevated to his rightful place in the eternal fitness of things. The President is dead, but the government at Washington still lives. Born of experience resulting from other untoward removals, the succession is provided for. It is automatic. There is no hiatus. The dead chief saw to it that his official house was set in order before he entered upon the trip which has ended in that long journey from which no traveler returns. The stalwart figure is removed from the helm of state, but there is no cessation of official work. The President is dead. Long live the President! The whole world shares in the nation's grief, as is evidenced by the messages of condolences from the crowned heads of nations, from democratic rulers of states and principalities, from organizations of every political kind and creed, from every race in every clime under the sun. And the world mourns with that pathetic figure who yesterday was "the first lady in the land," and who but a few brief months ago was nigh entering the "Valley of the Shadow" with the noble figure now forever still at her side bidding her take heart. And while we say peace to the soul of the departed, The Negro World takes the opportunity of expressing its loyalty to Calvin Coolidge, the new head of the state. We realize he inherits a difficult task. But he has in the past given indications of a firm character and solid judgment so convincing that the country feels secure under his guidance. May he show, as his friends and well-wishers feel confident he will, a spirit of forbearance and patience, wedded with needful firmness, worthy of the example set by his predecessor. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE DAY THE anniversary of the Independence Day of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was celebrated with dignified ceremonial and pomp, unostentatiously but impressively, last Wednesday; by every division of the U. N. L. A. throughout the world. In Africa, in America, in the West Indies, in Central and South America—in fact, in every community where there is a Negro population—public observation of the day was kept, and men and women devoted to the cause rededicated themselves to the redemption of our motherland and renewed their pledge of One God, One Aim, One Destiny. The anniversary of the date means much to the Negro peoples of the world. On the first of August three years ago, a date that will ever be memorable in the history of the Negro, Marcus Gavay sounded the first trumpet blared and reverberated over five continents. It also marked the book the exploiting would be race leaders to their very foundations. It stirred great nations and caused them to sit up and take notice. It was that blast that made England—proud and perilous Allion, the scourge of freedom-loving, down-trodden peoples—arouse herself to prevent the teachings of this new Gospel of Freedom from reaching her darker subjects all over the globe. It kicked the ear of France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Italy and all the nations who held territory in Africa. That slogan "Africa for the Africans!" broadcasted in stentorian tones broadened out from the ripples at Madison Square Garden into waves that enveloped the earth. It will never be forgotten by those who heard it. Posterity will yet hear it and rejoice, and then look back to it as the day that started them off on their way back to the home of their ancestors, who were rudely snatched from the bosoms of their loved ones to be shackled in the service of an alien people. We congratulate the New York local for its celebration of the day. The program, admirably arranged and effectively staged, was joined in by every class and carried through with commendable unanimity and harmony that rebounded to the credit of all concerned, from Mr. Carter, the vice-president; to the humblest worker in the ranks, who contributed so largely to the success of the event. OFFICIAL DISCRIMINATION OUR white contemporary, the New York World, can generally be counted on, regardless of race, prejudice, to strike the right note when glaring cases of discrimination in high places occur. All of us will remember the recent stand it took in the Harvard discrimination edict aimed against a talented son of the race. And Negroes who think must have read with pleasure its admirable editorial last week on the case of the Negro youth from New Jersey who, having passed the tests for the army's civilian training course, was informed that he could not be admitted to the fellowship of summer camps where white officers were being trained. The lieutenant detailed to write the letter conveying the information, says the World, "must have been struck by the hopelessness of making a dirty task seem white." He regretted that Negro applicants were not numerous enough to justify the establishment of a separate camp. At the same time he sincerely hoped that the Negro youth's patriotism and willingness to serve his country would not be impaired by this seeming rebuke on the part of the country itself. He made it plain, however, that admission to the camp would be incompatible with army policy. Whatever proof the army may cite in justification of its policy of exclusion, it seems indefensible not only as a matter of social justice but of military efficiency. It is reasonable to believe that the army is eager for competent reserve material, and bases its refusal to admit the Negro on grounds that the admission might drive away prospective officer-candidates from the summer training camps. On the other hand, a great many such candidates might not be deterred from applying for training. Certainly in the case of Harvard and other colleges, equality in classroom and on the athletic field has not depleted the roster of these institutions. These institutions also have turned out some fairly valuable material for officer-training camps. It seems that in a choice between two types to determine which shall make the better officer—between the youth willing to extend fellowship to a youth of another, color in the hardships and pleasantries of camp life and the one who wishes to be an officer only if there are no Negroes present—there can hardly be a difference of opinion among students of military character. Titere may be a grain of wisdom in the idea that one way to combat the often-complained-of arrogance of some reserve-officer types is to give them the choice of abandoning racial insolence or turning in their swords. JAMAICA EDITOR IS REPLIED TO [Mr. Editog I sent the following to the Daily Glomer of Kingston, Jamaica, K. W. L. for publication in answer to their editors on the Garvey case, which I ask you to print in The Negro World:] In your issue of June 23 and subsequent issue I notice you took pleasure in trying to hold up to ridicule the Hon. Marcel Garvey, who was being tried in a court of the United States on a charge of using the mails to defraud. I noticed lbs. where you made mention as beel interested in the washer-women in Jamaica, the cane-cutters in Cuba an the servant girls in America, whose arduous money, according to youMr. Garvey has cheated. I want to right here on behalf of the "cane cutter" in Cuba (as in your estimation allamaleans in Cuba who put their mory in the Black Star Line Corporation are supposed to be cane-cutters) but we do not thank you for your sympathy or interest on our behalf, knowing as we do that you have never do anything for the Negro race exce to hold them up to ridicule in the pos of your paper, which is only an actister of crimes. Strang it is, yet how true, that thousand of us "cane-cutters" in Cuba have leoof' every dime which was DE OMNIBUS REBUS organizecourageous as Toussaint L'Ouvverture, a martyr as sublime in his devotion his cause as a Stephen, Huss, Cramer, or McSweeney. In his fight for human rights he allows nothing to move him from the path of his goal. Is the mighty rock of Gibraltar he stands with one faith, while a short-sited, unbelieving race laughs. He stands with one idea, while a race igant of its depth and gravity criticizes. He stands with one purpose bold; we the cowards of a race shudder and tremble. He need not have any fear for the fulfillment of his dreams, for God is at work in the affairs of the rick man, bringing the race epoch by epoch and sun by sun up to a perfection and an ideal civilization. Every Negro should raise his voice daily the deliverance of this transcendent soul. Professor George Washington Carver, director of agricultural research and chemistry at Tuekagae, has added another star to the crown he justly wears as king of the soil by winning the Spingarn medal awarded each year for the Negro of American descent making the A NEO'S CLIMI TO FA highestlevement in any field of human endeavor. Prof. Carter, who has been ausgekept for many years, has distinguished himself by his production of oven hundred products from the sweet potato, such as dyes, silks and cottonrystallized ginger, tiploe, flour, cattle food, etc., and by his finding one hred and fifty uses for the peanut, such as the making of shaving creamilk, cheese, chocolate bar, breakfast food, coffee, axle grease and one hred and forty-three other products. These scientific contributions made him have not only won for him the Spingarn model, but has caused him to make a Fellow of the Royal Society of Great Britain. The scientific achievements of Prof. G. W. Carver, of Tuckness, should be a source of inspiration to every struggling black boy. When he reads how from the lowest depth, ignorance and poverty this slive boy raised himself over every obstacle today he stands as one of America's foremost scientists, he should encouraged to stand like a man and face the world, making no guess, the color of his skin, nor complaining of his handicaps, for G. W. Carver demonstrated that brain has no color and knows no laded aside for "rainy days" in the different savings banks in this country only to be told in the time of the moratorium that the banks have failed and therefore our money was lost. Where were you, Mr. Editor? When and how did you sympathize with the poor laborers? Of course, we know that those money in the various banks were used up by white people and therefore there could have been no fraud in that, but because this champion of Negro freedom, this hero of our race, started out to do something which hitherto the world thought the Negro could not do—viz., running a steamship line—it aroused, the fire of his enemies, who left no stone unturned in their effort to bring about his downfall, and they have succeeded as far as landing him in fall on false accusations—a scapegoat bearing the sins of others. But let me say, Mr. Editor, and please understand that I am voling the sentiment of 90 per cent. of the community of Negroes, let Marcus Garvey he in jail br out of jail, he is our accepted leader, or her, and as such we love him, respect him, adore him and will follow him. We hope, too, that the day will come when the truth will have a hearing, for Truth crushed to earth shall rise again. The eternal years of God are hers. But error wounded writhers in pain. And dies amidst her worshippers. In the issue of The Negro World of July 28 you have made several seriously erroneous statements concerning the "Negro Sanhedrin." The Sanhedrin has never asked for a million dollars nor for any other sum of money beyond requesting members of the committee to contribute $5 each towards defraying necessary expenses. It will require not over a few thousand dollars for promotion and publication. Every cent contributed will be received, receipted and accounted for by the treasurer. Prof. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. In the second place, Mr. Brigge is not secretary of the Sanhedrin. Your erroneous statements must be due to your imperfect means of securing accurate information. The All-Race Conference, or Negro Sanhedrin, is in the hands of a committee of which I am chairman. This committee has full and final powers, including the power of co-operation. Mr. Brigge is secretary of the Race Front Conference, a sort of co-operative committee of several civil rights organizations, which gave its moral backing to the movement. The All-Race Conference, as the name implies, is a movement which invites all Negro organizations, agencies and activities, functioning on a national scale, to come together and calmly deliberate upon the state of the race. No one organization or set of organizations has any power or authority or control above the rest. The U. N. I. A. has been invited precisely as others have been. Tyrian and Trojan shall be treated without discrimination. Do not be frightened at the use of the term "Sandhedrin." It has only harmless synonymic connotation. In my first proclamation, issued on January 1, I used the term "All-Race Conference." In a subsequent announcement I made use of the term "Sandhedrin," because of a certain historical parallel in the history of the Jews, causing Napoleon Bonaparte to summon a sandhedrin of that race in 1806. I am sure that your sense of fairness will prompt you to give this letter the same publicity as your provocative statement. With best wishes, yours truly. KELLY MILLER. Chairman Committee, All-Race Conference. [Editor's Note: — Professor Kelly Miller has tried in the above letter to deny some of the things said about her "Sanhedrin." He has not deigned all I have as much right to form my opinion about the professor's "All-Race Conference" as he has in forming his about me and about the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which he promises to write with no doubt as much "imperfect means of securing accurate information" as myself. The professor becoming a leader does not "self-appointed and self-styled," and will not, therefore, become nervous about and over criticism, as he himself indulges a great deal in writing of others. Doesn't the professor know that Hirgues is a Communist and a worker for the Soviet, by "Red," principles? No one would doubt the integrity of men like Professor Hawkins, but what about some of the "others" who have been so active around the "Sanhedrin" or "All-Race Conference"? There are more things, professor, known to us than are dreamed of in your philosophy. Whoseover the printer's devil was, somebody spilled the information about a million dollars, so that, if I got the information, "imperfectly" it was not my fault. Will the professor he informed that the Universal Negro Improvement Association never received an invitation to be a part of the "Sanhedrin" or "All-Race Conference" until I was securely locked away, but, probably, "there is method in madness." The Negro World and the professor will not fall out, but we are only sorry that he started his leadership so late as not to be ceased to good and bad criticism, even though he indulges in himself at times to the disadvantage of the other fellow.-MARCUS GARVEY. Managing Editor.-The Tombs.] COOLIDGE TO SERVE 1 YEAR, 30 WEEKS, 3 DAYS Mr. Harding had served two years, twenty-one weeks and four days of his term. The unexpired portion, for which Mr. Coolidge has taken the oath, is one year, thirty weeks and three days. Albert B. Cummins of Iowa, President, pro tempore of the Senate, will assume the Vice President's duties as presiding officer of the Senate, but there will be no Vice President until an election is held. Should President Coolidge die, the succession, by act of Congress, would descend in the following order: Secretary of State, Secretary of the Treasury, Secretary of War, Attorney General, Postmaster General, Secretary of the Navy, Secretary of the Interior, Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Commerce and Secretary of Labor. Charles R. Hughes, therefore, is next in line for the Presidency. SIDELIGHTS BY A SCRIBE-VI. Marcos Garvey, every one known convicted on one count, received the maximum penalty. But I doubt it more than a paltry few know what the penalty really was. Ask and you will be told, "Five years' imprisonment and a fine of $1,000." Is that so? No, my good friends. You omit something. What about the costs of the trial? Don't you know he was mutilated in the costs, which are sold to run into several thousands of dollars? Don't you know that the trial lasted twenty-seven days, several days longer than it would have lasted had Garvey not conducted his own defense? Yes, indeed. Judge Julian Mack declared—that time his features took on the aspect of a judge delivering a death sentence—"Five years' imprisonment, a fine of $1,000 and the costs of the trial." And, if you won't take the word of "Scribe," then send a query to the inquiry column of some leading journal. And why should you hesitate to be believe? Why think you that I am flirting with Sapphire? What if this costs business is somewhat unusual? Why give me my way with the statute book and I would fashion a law compelling judges to inflict costs, plus fine, plus imprisonment. Of course, I would make a quaint exception. If for example, the victim were of my race—it would be attupated—my compulsion clause would not apply. But if the victims were of another race, say the white-rise, it would apply. You see, I would be amazingly attricult in terms of race. My compulsion clause would have a complexion proviso. Being a Negro, I would make it my chief care that victims of the opposite race would be thoroughly avenged, while victims of my own race would receive no such consideration. And, peculiarly, if the culprit was of my race, I would be lenient. But if of another, I would be hard. Yes, sir, very hard. Imprisonment, fine and costs—all would apply. In brief, mine would be just a wondrous exposition of law-making and law-enforcement a la race. And here I sit neglected, a potential Solon, bemoaning my obscurity. But now and then a ray of sunshine breaks in upon the gloom. Now and then some eminent jurist does the thing I fain would do. Make no mistake about it. Far be it from me to pick a quarrel* with Jude Mack for nucling Marcus Garvey in the costs. His action fits in perfectly with my scheme of things. You must understand that the "victims" were "poor Negroes." "To make matters worse, Garvey himself was a Negro. Fiat justitia! Let justice be done, though the heavens fall, But, rigorous justice is oftimes rank injustice. That is where my compulsion or compulsion clause—call it what you will—collapses. That is where Marcus Gavaye made his fatal blunder. "I do not ask for mercy," he thundered in his able summation, "but justice, justice, justice." And justice he received—justice, stern, hard, cruel, illogical, unreasoning. It only the great Negro leader had emulated the wise, eloquent Portia—who knows?—a race might not be sorrowing today! The lady who pleaded Antonio's cause, when all else had failed, talked of mercy and justice to the hard Jew, Shylock. But it was for mercy she pleaded. "Though justice be thy plea," she told Shylock, "consider this, that, in the course of justice, none of us should see salvation." "Let mercy jeason justice," was her cry. Portia's pleas for mercy was, of course, quite lost on Shylock. But—who can tell? where Portia failed in the sixteenth, Garvey might have succeeded in the twentieth century. With Judge Mack, I repeat, I have no quarrel. He entered into the spirit of the occasion. He realized the gravity of the issues. When the history of the Negro combo to be written, it shall be told how Garvey, adventurer or true patriot—it depends on the point of view, as the New York "world" said—qualifying Negro figure of a generation, fared in New York city in the year 1922. Judge Mack, projecting his gaze on the future pages of Negro history as told by white historians, delivered sentence. But there was a trifling inconsistency, which the Negro historian may not overlook. And had the learned judge but dwelt more in the present than in the future, he might have avoided this inconsistency. Judge Mack's breast was filled to overflowing with sympathy for the "poor Negroes" whom Garvey victimized. He knew that all their money had been squandered on unprofitable ships. He knew that Garvey, as a result of an orgy of high, riotous life, was as poor in the moment of his extremity as the "poor Negroes" he victimized. As the London newspapers blazoned forth in two-inch type for the consumption of England's faithful subjects in Africa. "Twenty-five ladies of the harem on board Garvey's million-dollar yacht had completely dissipated the life savings of a people." Garvey was broke. Garvey was guilty. His victims, were broke. His victims were sad. Garvey still retained the unshaken confidence of his "victims." "Of this paradox all we were aware." Judge Mack must have known that to fine Garvey would be to fine his "victims." To mulet him in costa was to mulet them. He must have known that the publicing new Negro, the same Negro the rapacious tiger mauled, would give his soul to unlock the cage. He must have known that if $160,000 was the price of Garvey's release, it would be forthcoming from his "victims" within a month. He must have known that these same shareholders in the Black Star Line's Steamboat Company, if or when Garvey served his term, would exempt each other in their mad rush. to the treasury with fine and costly and everything, deportation notwithstanding. Then how could Judge Mask find it in his heart to pity a people bury denied, and then probed further to burden them? Oh, trifling moan elastency! But, there is something, at least, to be thankful for. After sentence had been pamed, in a wave of loyalty Judge, Mack, urged Garvey to choose Kansas and not Georgia as his place of exile. If only Garvey said the word he, the judge, would make a special order that Garvey's last wish be expected. And Garvey said the word To Leavenworth he must go and not Atlanta. Not Atlanta, where a year ago Garvey, tiger man, hold conference with the Imperial Kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan. Not Atlanta, the seat of Ku Klux Klan cult. At Atlanta, perhaps, he might be among friends, for is Garvey not a member of the Ku Klux Klan? A witness for the prosecution, a white man, a lawyer, stated this on oath on the witness stand, and who knows but that he was believed by some? Can it be that, even this seeming consideration on Judge Mack's part 'sprang from a desire to separate Garvey from friends? Perish the thought! Judge Mack did not believe Mr. Healy, any more than he believed the N. A. A. C. P. He know what Garvey and the K. K. K must, of necessity, be like oil and water—they could not mix. And, so, to avoid a national scandal, he placed hundreds of miles between the greatest champion of Negroes and the valdest despoilers of Negroes' rights, the Ku Klux Klan. This, surely, is something to be thankful for. --- And now to sum up these articles, in which I have tried to afford the public a glimpse of the trial and the trials of Marcus Gavrey. As day by day I sat in the old Postoffice building, as I beheld, the comedy being enacted before me, I felt like doing as they do in the Hiprodrome—give way to laughter uncontrollable. But the shadow of a jersey prison restrained me. There, in the old Postoffice building, for about 200 hours, men sat weaving the plot for a play such as Plautus might envy. And the vaudeville offerings between the acts I shall never forget. See an old woman clamoring at the courtroom door for admission. The secret service man stationed there is adamant. "You cannot pass," he says, "Full house." "But I am Amos' mother!" Presto! The door is thrown wide. She enters in. A portly Negress, a shareholder of the Black Star Line, sees, hears, and receives inspiration. She hurries to the other door and works the oracle. Yes, in those days when the "Garvey Comedy" was running, it was good to be kin to Amos—Amos, Negro, Rooseveltia bodyguard, Garvey's "investigator." And while two different women in the space of a few minutes claim him as their offspring, the hero, who has earned his niche in the temple of fame, sits at the prosecutor's right hand, innocent of the magic of his name, manuscript in hand, prompting the star actor. Marcus Garvey may never get ball. He may serve full five years in Leavenworth, Kan. He may be deported. But history will accord him his rightful place among men of honor and achievement. He may die, but his work and his spirit will live. The epochal doings in the old Postoffice building in the month of June in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and twenty-three may yet be satirised by some Negro Juvenal. FAITH IN THE CAUSE Editor Nogro World-Dear Sir: Please allow me space in your valuable paper to be able to express my feelings toward the Hon. Marcus Garvey's case, as I am also asked to voice the sentiments of the awakened Negroes and fighters for racial uplift, of those living in such remote places. We, as new Negroes, patriotic to the cause of Africa for Africans, advocated by our leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, whether he be dead or alive, at large or in jail, we are prepared not to allow our morale to be broken, while we keep the truth of George Washington of America before our mind's eye: DeValera of Ireland, the great leaders of the independence of Egypt. Last, but not least, Mahatma Ghandi, of India, though exiled, imprisoned, or even dead, the movements worked for the better. Liberty or death is our watchword as new Negroes, full determination to rally around the Rod, the Black, and Green, until our cause be won. This is the time to show the world that we are prepared to uphold and protect our manhood and our womanhood as an example to our children and generations—yet unborn. The time is not far distant when the persecutors of the Hon. Marcus Garvey will experience the greatest upheaval which is working as an under-current, awaiting an opportunity, he be black, or white, he shall not be spared. Every nation had its leaders, which were highly respected. Why must we as Negroes not have curs? He has been shown. We accepted him, and we are determined to live for this cause, for the cause. I need be, die, and take cause. Our leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, is innocent. May the Abundance God save him, and lead him triumphantly. As was to be expected, Marcus Garvey has been found guilty by a jury of white men of using the United States trails to defraud. Many believe that the charge was only a sham to get Garvey with the hope of destroying his work. The whole thing seems to be made up of an international plot which will shortly expose itself. Several Negro men and organizations have been parties to what some regard as a "frame-up," but Truth shall have a hearing. An appeal must be taken to the highest courts of the land to further test justice; therefore, every Negro of loyalty and manhood is asked to subscribe to this fund. The sight for Africa's liberty is just begun; let us all help. Send in your subscription addressed to the Secretary, Marcus Garvey Release Committee, 56 West 135th Street, New York City, N. Y. I. MARCUS GARVEY, have appointed Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey, Mr. William Sherrill and Mr. Clifford Bourne, as a committee to receive and disburse all moneys for my Appeal and Defense Fund. (Signed) MARCUS GARVEY, SPECIAL PARENT BODY NOTICE TO ALL DIVISIONS AND CHAPTERS EVERYWHERE To the Officers and Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association: It has come to our notice that since the incarceration of the President-General a few designing officers, and members are trying to create strife in the divisions in order that they may put over the things that they could not put over when the President-General was actively in harness. As loyal members of the association we are calling upon you to discredit such individuals wherever they show their heads. Inform us of their activities and they shall be expelled from the association. We are firmly resolved to keep inviolable the principles and aims of this great organization of ours and will do all and everything to continue the work as if the President-General was not temporarily deprived of his liberty. We desire to affirm that Marcus Garvey will remain President of the U. N. I. A; so long as he lives. His opinion is more respected today than ever by the four hundred million Negroes of the world, and when these plotters attempt to embarrass the Committee which he has left to carry on the work during his temporary absence they are enemies to the Honorable Marcus Garvey and the great movement he has founded. This warning comes from the Committee of Management as appointed by the Eresident-General to "carry on" in his absence and we propose to "carry on" in spite of the few designing persons within and without the organization, who are wolves in sheep's clothing. These particular busy-bodies are active in the Universal Negro Improvement-Association for reasons very clear. Put them down as the enemies they are and "press on" in the fight for a free and redeemed Africa. W. H. SHERRILL, 2nd Asst. President-General, C. S. BOURNE, Chancellor, BOBERT L. BOSTON, S. ROBERT E.

It is deaf, dumb and blind to the appeal to reason, justice and complete sense, and pursues its venomous way with reckless indifference to consequences. It is intolerant, vengeful, narrow, heady. It loves strife, hates truth, and likes to "crucify on a cross of suffering and smile at their agonies, the helpless and defenseless." It is malicious, conceited, vulgar, arrogant, over-bearing and self-willed. It is the mythoshes of crass ignorance, which is inexorable in its domineering insistence upon having its own way. It delights in inflicting pain, mental and physical in mortifying and embarrassing sensitive minds.

Morgan of Alabama, who, compared with Tillman of South Carolina, with a halo. Morgan was much well read in the classics and of the presence, cool headed and a thinker. He could adorn any subject approached by the witcheryrence, and make black-app or vice versa. But there gentleman in the Senate one George R.

And senator Hoar adjusted his and caught the President's Morgan, whose complexion by florid the was a good more florid, and the its Senator would tear his to tatters, smiling most as he did so. fear possessed a wonderful omination about conditions Morgan's State, Alabama. Nixon unwieldy, the nation tumors surpassed that Schorter by telling him about things that were going on there of which he had no knowledge whatever. John T. Morgan was, as I have stated, a gentleman enemy of the Negro, who could say mean and cutting things about us with a profusion of smiles, that helped to make his libels, respectable and stick in the memory of those who heard him utter them. The effect of the work of the Morgans and others I shall name is just now beginning to tell, for they were master builders, and they understood the psychology of the American white man. They knew that; patience worketh all things. General June B. Gordon, of Georgia, and Alex Stephens, one-time Vice-President of the Southern Confederacy, both of whom I knew well, were the mild-mannered sort of opponents of the Negro. They both had a sort of tolerance and sympathy for the Negro, due doubtless to the influence upon their lives of their black "mammies" which forbade them doing or saying anything of a drastic character about us in open session. Both were Southern gentlemen to the managers of the South with then were white men of the South with well defined views as to the Negro's place in the human economy. Stephens had years before in a famous speech declared that "the Negro is fundamentally and eternally inferior to the white race." And no hard feelings obtained between himself and other noted Southerners because of his views on this subject. I, Q. C. Lamar, J., Z. George and J., R. Chalmers of Mississippi were a trot who might be depended upon to do any piece of dirty work required in Congress to forestall the political aspirations of the Negroes of Mississippi or the South. They were not great talkers, but instructors and great doors. M. C. Butler of South Carolina was a scholar and an archeologist who took pride in the knowledge that he once had a man of Red Skirt who his State must exercise their constitutional right to vote. And he seemed to glory in the fact that he had helped to kill some of these blocks. No less infamous than these was Bountiful of Georgia who had a pace like Bashun's bull and a mouth like the entrance to a railroad tunnel. He was a wicked, visionless, and Senator Rose Conkling of New York sometimes put him on the spot and roasted him to a turn. He was a mild-eyed, fond-voiced and so narrow in intellectuals that a piece of ordinary writing paper placed before his eyes edgosew could conceal both optics. George Gray of Delaware, Arthur Gorman of Maryland, Wim, Pinkey Whyte of Maryland (twiner) and Wallhall of Louisiana were a part of the board of strategy of that period where still helped to put many a Negro to sleep, actually and metaphorically. They were not Frankmasters in the art of deception and were not unfamiliar with the science of Negroology. Their successors are still doing business under the Dome at Washington and they have a stranglehold which the Negro will difficult to break. TO HON. MARCUS GARVEY They sentenced John Brown, too; Yet still their souls go marching on As heroes ever do.

Because he spikes for justice And hath no cause to frost; the orbital of the the heart of God The brotherhood of man the weight wherever he stood A modern Simon of France he bears the cross of souls the history will write his deed the corridors of fame LILLIE AREW DUNLAP Watts, Col. Dame Fashion whispers that the new fall colors are to be russets and browns, with a brand new shade of brown named by the French B. Hubert. And embroidery! Embroidery everywhere. So get out your needles, hoops and rainbow-hued silks and prepare. The skirts are still worn long, as is comfortable. You may, if you are slender and tall, wear them bountiful, like mother used to; or if you are plump and short, wear them along the straight lines. But a word of warning: shake your dresses on the simple lines, especially your bodices—they are much more youthful and wear easier. Hats are my favorites in all the world of clothes, for though, as you all know, your shoes and gloves are what people look to see if you are a gentlewoman, I suspect it is, the becoming that first makes them turn their heads. It's a little harder to be sure about the fit of a hat than it is to be sure about the fit of some other thins. Shoes, for instance. If shoes don't fit, they usually hurt. Sometimes they blister. But hats, unfortunately, don't blister, even if they ruin the chances of your face. An ill-fitting hat just sits on your head like a wicked imp, and sits, and sits, and sits. Till some day a merciful shower or a sudden wind and a mud puddle puts an end to it. "Watch your step!" is a familiar slogan. When it comes to hats its "Watch your crown!" All crowns should be at least the width of the face. A close-fitting crown makes the face look bigger, and is best for the small featured, while a crown that's a little wider than the face, and that frames the hair line is better for the heavy, broad face. Incidentally, the popular crown made of pie-shaped pieces is very good for the big head. The eye unconsciously follows the lines into the center, you see. Brims are important, too. A wide brain makes the face look smaller, and apparently shortens the figure. Very short girls should not wear extremely big hats if they want to make the most of their inches. This season trimming have not been heavy—a ribbon coarse or a knotted scarf for the sports hat; a single big flower a little applique or a long ribbon streamer for the dress hat. But remember, when heavy trimming are in style, to look out for them. They dwarf the little face and the small body. Girls with small faces may wear the little white hats and the popular small cloches (bell-shaped hats). The popular small hat (small season) has been the small turned-down hat, or, perhaps more fashionable, the one that, turns up in the back and down the rest of the way, they come in felt, they come in straw and they come in fabric. And if they are not trimmed with a coarse of ribbon they are trimmed with a cluster of flowers, almost always at the sideback. From Paris comes news, also of a small side-roll shape that they say is going to be good for fall. It is a trifle early to talk about the new fall hats, but ruler has it that fashion has decided that they will be of bright hued velvet, of ribbon in quantities and, perhaps, a bit more trimming to the hat. Speaking of hats, news has just arrived from Drus telling of the new fall styles. Quant little hats have been designed. Kylie Jenner, some shaped like a Chiffon panda, with an elaborate design of blue and gold applied to scarlet leather and trimmed hanging tassel. These little hats are worn with a three-piece costume, made of two different materials coat and skirt of one, while the blouse of another material in either one of the dresses used on the hat. Again, says the Irish, embroidery. Small designs, trump designs, large designs. Both Orléal and peasant, but is used, too. In trimming this fall to quite an extent, especially on the coats and street dresses. As to materials, one practical designer uses blue silk and blue gauze, while another more daring us black velvet with scarlet cloth trimming.

While a heritage of the German regime, the new British "owners" (they call themselves mandatories, nowadays) have done little in stamping it out.

CARTER The celebration of the anniversary of the annual international convention of the E. G. I. A. began at Liberty Hall on Wednesday morning, at 10.30, with service Rev. G. E. Carter, president of the New York Local, officiating. The hall was well filled as the president and executive officers of the E. G. I. A. preceded by the choir, priests and Black Cross nurses, went in procession to the rostrum. The first curture lesson was read by Sir William Perria, A. M., after which "God Bless Our President" was sung. The second lesson was read by Prof. J. J. Adams. Prayers were said by the Rev. Carter, after which a musical selection was rendered by the juveniles. country, far away from their homes. It was the prayers of those mothers ascending to the throne of God, pleading that freedom, liberty and truth would be the guiding influence of a people born under such unfavorable circumstances. It was a vision of that people, and the sons and daughters of that people, who were not educated according to the white man's standard in the islands of the sea and on the mainland of the western hemispheres. It was that vision of disintegration within the ranks of that class of people who should be cemented into one strong force, marshalled for good and to put over a program worth the white. It was this that caused this man to The Sermon Rev. Carter preached from the text: "And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision; for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves. Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength, yet heard I the voice of His world."—Dahl K. 7-9 verses. Daniel, he said, had a divine vision. There are various instruments of sight. Physical is the lowest grade. "Intellectual sight is nobler far, the eyes of the understanding," as Paul said. But Daniel's vision was yet of a subliterary order, for his faculty of sight was spiritual. The heart's eyes see the greatest realities of the universe. But what did Daniel see? He saw the Christ that was to be. Jesus the redeemer of the world. It really seemed as if our Lord was impatient for the "fullness of time" to come. He longed to be incarnate. He had from all eternity a brother's heart toward the human race and deeply desired to pitch His tent among us. In the fine phrase of Tertuillon, He was "schooling Himself for the incarnation." "How much depends on our conception of Christ?" Mr. Carter asked his hearers. "What think ye of Christ? is a test question," he proceeded. "It is to be feared many-have not a great vision of Him. I want to live in the vision of Daniel's Christ and John's Christ, the Christ of fine gold and the beryl and the lightning and fire and the polished brass and the voice like the voice of a maltitude. Is your vision that of the glorious Christ? Is that the prevailing vision of our organization? Is there a law of vision-seeing? In other words, are there certain conditions essential to a noble, spiritual vision? I think there are indications of such conditions in the case before us. In verse two we read: "In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three full weeks." What for? For the world of sin within his breast and for the world of sin without. The vision came after that sorrow and because of it. After three weeks of mourning he saw the glorious vision. There would be more visions today if we had more mourning. Liked are they that mourn, they shall be comforted. A depleted sense of sin in ourselves and in the world is the sure preparative for the vision of the Christ." The Lessons of the Vision The preacher then went on to show that Daniel's vision was unshored by those who were with him; it influenced those who did not share it; his vision humiliated him; but it was reassuring, "Let us turn," he said, "to the lessons to be applied to the organization. First, like Daniel, Garvey alone of the Negro leaders who came upon the stage of action saw the vision." What was it? Christ—truth. It was that sight of days past and gone, the sight of black men and women who were snatched from the shores of the motherland and budded into vessels and brought into a strange country and sold as slaves in a foreign land. It was that vision of the treatment that was meted out to those black mothers and fathers, for more than 350 years were in slavery in an unknown NOTICE Vickburg Division, No. 626, Miss.

It was the prayers of those mothers ascending to the throne of God, pleading that freedom, liberty and truth would be the guiding influence of a people, born under such unfavorable circumstances. It was a vision of that people, and the sons and daughters of that people, who were not educated according to the white man's standard in the islands of the sea and on the mainland of the western hemispheres. It was that vision of disintegration within the ranks of that class of people who should be cemented into one strong force, marshalled for good and to put over a program worth the white. It was this that caused this man to come along and make a stand for truth and, that truth shall be heard, become an apostle of truth and stand and declare to the world, "I saw a vision, and that vision was for the liberation of the sons and daughters of black men and black women." Achieving the Goal "Garvey's vision was unshared by those who were with him. When he announced that he had seen a vision, men and women came to him in great numbers, but just to get a view. They came not because they saw the vision but because he called. They came simply because of selfish purposes; they came that they may share in the beginning of a great movement, and because they did not have the vision, one of the best proofs we have had is the fact that one man who was the first to take the stand to testify against him was one of the first to answer the call. Friends, you cannot be of service unless you have the vision. On the thousands of names on the books of the New York Local I am fearful if one hundred have the vision. When you have the vision you know how to treat your fellowmen: when you have the vision you realize you must be instrumental in putting over the program; when you have the vision you cannot stop to fight over petty differences. Let the good and the bad stand side by side and God will weed out the bad. You have got to have the vision. And the vision is nothing more than a free and redeemed Africa. And all that has a tendency to obscure, all that is restless must be cast out and our efforts concentrated on achieving our goal. "In the third place, it influenced those, who did not share it. Millions of followers who did not have the vision have found themselves, in the fold of the Association. Ask them why they came and they cannot tell you. But somehow they will tell you some strange feeling moved them and they joined. They did not have the vision at the same time, but the influence of the leader, the influence of those who saw the vision with the leader had such an effect that men and women felt constrained to join the movement. "And like Daniel, Garvey, too, in solitude realized his vision. Time and time again he was alone in the great city of New York. In the history of the movement there were times when this man walked the streets of Harlem with barely shoes on his feet; clean but his suit was threadbare. A bundle of books under his arm, he had the vision, seeking to convert others that they might see the glory, that they might understand and realize that his life was dedicated to a people that needed his help. In solitude, in such solitude that no one knew even where he stayed. I have learned of a little room where night by night the man who is now incarcerated and who gave life to this movement spent his time on a little ballet in a little room in the district of Harlem. He had the vision. He could not stop. There was an impelling motive behind. Selfishness was not in his breast, for selfishness cannot suffer. He was being prepared in solitude for the mighty work he was to push on. Friends, it is strange, but the man who must understand the hungering masses must of necessity he hungering himself. The man who must do something for suffering, humanity must suffer himself. The man who has the vision and who, in spite of the hardships that will come to him will go on his course, is the man that will lead the forces, for God is with him. In solitude he saw the vision, and then The Vision Humiliated Him "It brought him to the place where he said, I live not for Garvey. I live not for the praise that may come to me from the mouth of men and women, but I live rather that a whole race shall go forward." And because of this humiliation he finds himself today incarcerated. I know there is a spirit of humility here; for this man in the mad rush to lead his people has SEND NO MONEY 20 SHOT Ammo worth ONLY $9.75 30 shots with ammo loaded with 100 rounds ammunition in 10 gauge ammunition. $9.75 ammo loaded with 100 rounds ammunition. $9.75 ammo loaded with 100 rounds ammunition. $9.75 AMMO SHOT BRAND.

If you show me one leader who has come upon the stage of action and who has said he is leading the people, who did not get himself a home when he was called on to lead, saving Garvey, then I will eat this Bible up. All of them, their first duty was to themselves and their family. And they thought themselves a home. Here is a man who is leading the people and who lives in a rented house from which, when he does not pay, he will be ejected as any other person. And the very salary which he got, the greater part went back into the work of the organization. I know, friends, what may be said to the contrary, I know the various rumors scattered around, but I am convinced that if this man had salted down and put away something surely there would be some evidence somewhere in the world. The time to use money is in trouble. Oh, my friends. I know the cost of leadership, and one of the best proofs that this man is honest, and sincere in trying to be instrumental in helping his race is the predicament in which he finds himself today. "Last thought. His vision, like Daniel's vision, is reassuring for us today. He sees the fruit. And though he is incarcerated in a prison cell, and as we assemble ourselves here this morning and gaze on the place where he is wont to stand the first of August for the past three years, this morning finds him down in the Tombs dictating letters, working that the cause might go on. My friends, while it may be impossible at this time to restrain our tears, the spirit of Garvey hovers about us and as it hovers about us it seems to be saying, 'Take courage, ye children of men. Though I may not be with you in the physical sense, my spirit still leads the hosts. I am willing to pay the full price, if need be that Norkens shall understay some day, shall realize some day. Africa belongs to black men and black women'. God has given us the vision, on until our life's week is over, and when we have been removed, from the scene of activity, our children shall take up the gaudlet and in the spirit of a father and mother that had the vision they, too, shall carry on. It may be fifty years, it may be one hundred years, it may be two hundred years, five hundred years, but as certain as I stand here--for without a vision the people perish—we who have got the vision will go on until then. Red, the Black and the Green shall float on the hillslopes of Africa and our sons and daughters shall climb the hills and go down into the valleys of Ethiopia and make of it a home for those who have the desire to accomplish in the light of the vision given to Marcus Garvey." After the singing of a hymn, the service was brought to a close with the pronouncement of the benediction. BOCAS DEL TORO DIVISION GREET COMMSR. BRYANT BOCAS DEL TORO DIVISION GREET COMMSR. BRYANT --- On Friday, July 20, 1923, the members of Bocas Del Toro Division No. 44 were filled with enthusiasm welcoming Hon. Charles H. Bryant, Commissioner of Panama, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua, in their midst after an absence of two months going to Panama to see after the lifting of the ban in order that the different branches can operate once again with freedom and independence. Commissioner Bryant, after his arrival on the 20th, had intended to take two days' rest from his hard and strenuous labor and unpleasant voyage on his trip from Colon, but on learning that a meeting had been staged for that night, he immediately changed his plans and made preparation for the advance. The Namidian Lion, so named by the Colon residents, made his appearance in our Liberty Hall, San Miguel, and after the shaking of hands with members and well wishers, the meeting was called to order and our opening ode was sung by the entire audience. Rev. R. N. Whittaker conducted the prayer after our battle hymn was sung. The Rev. Whittaker in his opening address said that we were quite pleased in welcoming our honorable and highly esteemed commissioner in our midst once again. He spoke of the hard work which was thrown on our commissioner with the government in lifting the ban, and secondly, with the branches, chapters and divisions in Panama and Coloq, especially No. 18 Division, where the amount of graff, robbery and exploitation were carried on and when many others who could not remedy the cause. The young tiger of the breed of the New York tiger went in to face the battle and start the ball rolling. His address was very spley and kept his hearers spellbound for over an hour and a half, after which the Ethiopian anthem was sung and the meeting brought to a close with the singing of the Doxology. On Monday night, July 24, Mrs. Sarah E. Gordon staged a concert on behalf of our High Commissioner, Hon. Charles Henry Bryant, P. C. R. & N. which was well attended. Commissioner Bryant's work has proved so magnificent that all who hated him have begun to show their love and appreciation to this honored officer and his supporters for the good services they have shown in Keeping the association alive in Bocas, Del Toro. Commissioner Bryant, in the opening of the concert, was presented with a program by the Rev. Whittaker. He gave an inspiring address and then started the proceedings as the chairman. The program was a lengthy one consisting of songs and recitations. Each number was well received, and a most enjoyable evening spent by all. BRITISH U. N. I. A. DIVISION IS GOING STRONG IN ENGLAND AS NEGROES TEACH THE GOSPEL OF FREEDOM Enthusiastic Meetings Are Held in the Great Center of Manchester Where Negroes in That Part of Great Britain Find a Mecca in Their Liberty" Hall to Exchange Their Views on Africa's Redemption MANCHESTER, England, July 19.—There was a great gathering of Negroes in Liberty Hall tonight. The meeting was opened promptly at 5 p.m. with the singing of the opening hymn, "From Greenland's Loy Mountains," and prayer be the president, Alpha S. Coker, who presided. The president gave a very impressive address to the audience. He appealed to them as loyal members of the race to forget all the obstacles they had to put up with through no fault of theirs, but to remain as loyal as ever and do everything within their power to support this great organization, and thus enable its leaders to push over this great program of Africa's redemption. He was loudly cheered at the end of his address. The secretary was the next speaker. Ho arose amidst cheers, as this was his first address since his re-election to the general secretaryship. The secretary, Joseph W. Sare, spoke in part as follows: "Hon. President officers, my friends, I am more than pleased having the opportunity to address you tonight," commenting upon the sea of facks. He said that he would like to lay stress on that particular point "Prior to my resignation," he said. "I've never witnessed such a gathering of Negroes in this hall, but it is quite evident that the new president has brought with him a new spirit which is taking the members by storm. Now what I want to impress upon you is this, with the exception of two, the gathering in this half-tonight are Africans, and a few West Indian Negroes. Now I want you to hear this in mind, that we are all Africans. But, speaking strictly to those who came to this country from Africa, the subject of my address to you tonight is "The Spirit of Love." He then went on to expound to them TY IS HOW TO BEAUTIFY THE SKIN No matter how dark your complexion, it is easy to get it "first right" by using Dr. Fred Palmer's Skin Whitener Ointment—promoted by thousands of men and women as the most delightful, most remarkable and most satisfactory of all skin whitener preparations—it quickly bleaches and is perfectly safe.

"This movement," he said, "is founded partly to promote the spirit of pride and love. The founder, knowing that this spirit, as far as the Negro was conceived has been living dormant for centuries. This spirit we are trying to awaken within the new Negro. All black men, no matter what part of the world they come from, are Africans, and all Africans, be they British, French, American, Spanish, Italian or Portuguese, Negroes, are no better off for being the subjects of allen pations. And, therefore have no right to call others. Now another point is this in Africa, the British possessions on the west coast are; Sierra Leone, Gold Coast, Colony, Togoland, North and South Nigeria. Now the British policy on that part of the coast is to spread propaganda among the various tribes, their policy being to preach and teach hatred. That one tribe is better than the other. Brothro, you all know, this propaganda has. Sed out wonderfully to their advantage. But the U. N. I.

Washington, followed by a few selections, by the choir, a violin solo, and a piano solo by Masters G. and B. Hinkins. The speaker of the evening, Dr. Benjamin Osborne, was then introduced and delivered a forceful address. In opening, Dr. Osborne said, interlax: "We are being camouflaged and hypnotized by the white race and the time has now come when we must be dehypnotized from the benevolent influence of the dominant race. Negroes the world over are asking for justice and opportunity, and if they will give us these things we will show the world that we can carry out the plan of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, of building up a powerful government in Africa. (Aplaurea.) The church is no longer an institution which can command the respect and patronage of the intelligent, Mr. Osborne said, "but rather a temple of awareness, greed, and deceit." In speaking of lynching, he claimed that the sending of a million petitions and telegrams to Senator Lodge would not stop the evil which could only be removed by united action on the part of Negroes. The audience maintained an intense interest through out the address and expressed their enthusiasm and appreciation by hourly applauding the doctor. WILLIAM WOOD.

IN EARMEST THOUGHTFUL PLEA FOR GREATER UNITY IS MADE BY A NEGRO TO NEGROES OF EVERY CLIME Co-operation of Activities Guided by a Common Will for the Common Good Is the Remedy Needed at the Present Time to Cure the Malady Affecting Negro Groups Everywhere The time has evidently come for us to understand each other; we have got to that point where it is highly necessary, for us to talk it over, leaving out the hysterical and melodramatic. All the Negro groups are suffering from the same malady, which needs a common remedy, co-operation of activities guided by a common will, for the common good. Sometimes the American Negro feels that Marcus Garvey as a West Indian has funged himself at his head as a leader, and naturally reacts this. Our kinsmen no doubt have been looking for the orthodox, but this one fact stands out clear, and has come to be recognized in the affairs of humanity today; that it is more the unorthodox than the orthodox, through which history influences the destiny of nations; If our American knismed will recognize this truth, then a great stumbling block will have been removed from our common pathway, and barriers of opposition will have been definitely lowered, to allow us to get in communication with each other over all questions which concern our future. Handicap to Unity. Our greatest handicap to unity is that the different groups of our race are laboring under the misguided impression of superiority; and the superiority manta is undermining our strength and sapping our vitality and gives the white man the laugh of not because he seasons shrewdly, that the different groups will never affiliate on common ground. He quickly figures that the American Nego lying in a large, rich and manufacturing country, will never, condescend to meet his West Indian cousin coming from the economically poor West Indian Islands on a common level. The same arrangement holds good with the Latin American Negro, and the same extends to the African Negro. Roughly speaking these are the rare groups. Now the traditions, manners and customs of each also plays its allanating part, because coming together we have the language and customs of different white nations, which cannot be easily eradicated, therefore certain progrananda will have to be employed to pave the way for mutual success, as only such can crown the Negro's effort for liberty in the true sense of the word, and a country he can fearlessly call his own. Nebd For Leadership. If we should carefully sift out the question, we could easily remove the barriers, we would see that an unbiased leadership is the most important thing necessary for us all. The different groups cannot all provide a leader at the same time. It can only be done one after the other. We see that even in the most radical democratic countries only one president is allowed at a time, when his day is done he is succeeded by another; if he work has been done well, then there is another chance for him, but because question he must be a man of different leadership to endure himself to the hearts of his people. The most hard-suckers have no port in the modern construction of the modern society for we are not living in the middle age. So a great deal of the work of the moment will disappear, if all the race groups consider it their moral duty to help Marvin Gates and not hinder him in his manifold work, for all the blind one will fail to appreciate the noble sacrifice being made for our No man is trying to do more well less at his command that he is. Our American colonists should therefore forget his West Indian instability and only see the need to indulge our purpose for in the light of Gettysburg as taught in West Indians have almost forgotten it, origin, and do you deserve to think he will fail simply because he was not born in the United States? History repeats itself most strikingly both with black and white men, for when the heir strikes the must he up and doing. Napoleon Was Not Born in France. Amid the wonderful glamour and glory of Napoleon few men remember he was an Italian first, and a Frenchman after, having been born in Corsica while the island originally belonged to Italy. Did this make him load the Frenchmen less faithfully? Did this prevent him from raising France to the highest pinnacles of greatness at a leader? And the noble Christopher Columbus the man from Gerson, who led the Spanish across the unknown watery wastee, did he fall them in hiding what he so earnestly sought, because he was not born in Spain. And to seek a closer parallel, did Wellington lead the British armies less sincerely because he was an Irishman, and a feud existed between England and Ireland for generations? Now we see the instinct for leadership, so eminent in Arthur Wellingly that he did not even waste his energy, during his college career, which passed quite uneventful; he entered the British army and we soon see him conducting campaigns in India, the most notable of these being the one against the Maharashtra, the battle of Assaye, begun in 1803 which closed his Indian mission to England he was sent to India and there the true leadership shape out in his numerous veterans sent against him one after the other. Finally closing his brilliant military career at Waterloo in 1815 and securing the peace of Europe. Lafayette today is more "American than French because he placed himself on the side of the right against might; in many obscure places in France today are to be found the names of those who enlisted in the cause of American freedom. And did George Washington's British ancestry worry him any when he had once declared for a country free from British domination? No, being a descendant of the Squires of Sulgrave Manor did not influence him to the contrary of being distinctly faithful to his ideal of broad common justice to humanity. It is the personality of the man which counts in the making of history, and these men are born, with destiny, and the power to achieve runs like fine gold through their actions. NEW YORK LOCAL LEADS THE WAY (Continued from page 2) ris and the Hon. Percival L. Burrow could not be delivered. The chairman then addressed the meeting briefly. He drew attention to an instance which appeared in the Evening World of July 51 on the subject of the Negro's migration from the South to the North and West. The article stated that the Southern Negro was no longer needed in labor centers, that the real test of competition with white workers was soon to come, and that various cities were reporting that blacks are being laid off in large numbers. That article, he said, bore out what the Hon. Marcus Garvey had been telling Negroes for the last five years—that in the great struggle for bread between the white and the black races the Negro would have to give place to the white man. Attention, he said, was called to the fact that great immigrant vessels were hovering off New York ready to rush in some 11,000 or 15,000 allens. Blood was thicker than water. It was for Negroes to head the words of their leader and get together, study conditions and be resolved to institute businesses to take care of their own and give them employment. A Thoughtful Act A pretty little function marked the evening's proceedings. After Mrs. Amy Jacque of Garvey had read the President General's message from the Tomb prison, a Black Cross nurse presented her on the platform with a baggage fleet of bouquet. In making the presentation the Black Cross's ambulance delicately and simply: "From the Black Cross nurse to the Royal National Infirmary of an honored President of the nation." When the shoes which broke off held shelved Mrs. Garvey, visibly moved and said, "I have to thank you very much to your little token and I hope you have it. I shall always merit your appreciation." I thank you, very much for your loyalty and devotion to her husband during his trial and since his incarceration. Many of you have been good enough to come to the house and comfort and cheer me. It makes her happy. But only to receive your cheerful attention but to feel and know that through she assures you are caring enough in the same spirit as if he was here. I thank you all." (Ap-phrase.) An appeal for the Defense Fund was made during the evening and a hand- canon was realized. Mr Garvey's Birthday Mr. Curtis announced that August 11 was the anniversary of the President-general's birth and would be marked by a special observance, the details of which would be glanced later. A full report of the morning and evening proceedings is given elsewhere.

BELL (Continued from Page 2) my faith in Christianity as the fundamental need of the world and of all struggling groups today. Really Christianity is clamoring in this hour of humanity's great travail for a fair trial. Genuine Christianity is essentially brotherhood, and the conviction has never firmer in my heart than now that Christianity groans to make itself articulate through the medium of a people humane enough to accept, and brave enough to dare to express the principle of world brotherhood in terms of life and practice. And may it not be that in the divine scheme of things Ethiopia comes to her awakening for such an end as this? Brotherhood Within the Race Brotherhood Within the Race but my friends, in order to give adequate expression to brotherhood between the races, we must first of all be willing to express brotherhood within the race. And herein lies both a danger and a hope. The danger is that we may be tempted to forget that before we were Northern Negroes or Southern Negroes, we were Negroes and again, that before we were American Negroes or West Indian Negroes, we were Negroes, and again—whether you please or not—that before we were muleattoes or high-browns, chocolate-browns or chonies, we were Negroes, all of us. (Applause.) And finally, that before we were Mohammedan or Christian, Roman Catholic or Protestant, Episcopalian or Baptist, Congregational or Methodist, Presbyterian or Spiritualist, or what not, Booker Washingtonite or Garveyite, or neither or both, that first, last and a day after, we are Negroes, and unhappy he be, whoever he be, that dare to attempt to divide us. In Christian spirit we are one common and ultimately one united brotherhood of Negroes. (Loud applause.) The Negro's Hope But, thank God, there is a hope as well as a danger. There is also a hope. And I speak here tonight neither as pro or anti anything. I speak first of all as a Negro interested in Negroes. This is the hope—that in the fullness of time a Negro has arisen with faith enough to believe and courage enough to attempt to prove that Negroes universally could be taught to forget their differences, inspired to hope and nerved to strive, for a better and brighter day when the world would be compelled to admit again that Negroes can function successfully elsewhere than at the woodpile and well. (Applause) It may not require an inspired leer, a Pittsburgh lawyer, nor a Wall Street broker to find a flaw in the plan or system of the U. N. I. A., but when it comes to the matter of Ethiopia's awakening and of Ethiopia's organization, you've simply got to hand it to Marcus Garvey. (Loud and prolonged applause.) Christianity Socially Militant Now, our second observation is that all our notions to the contrary not withstanding. Christianity is socially dominant. And I repeat it: Christianity is initially malignant. I must concede the point again that interpreters with minister and selfish designs have contributed to present Christianity to help an altogether different aspect. They boldly omit all the Masters' teachings about liberty, equality and brotherhood to place hammered emphasis uponrants' "Servants," obey your masters'. If men would take the time to study their testimonies over currently they should certainly discover that Jesus is all the time trying to call out the best, the noblest and the manliest in men and women. You hear all too much about turning the other check, but all too little about the condition, under which and the ends for which these particular words were spoken. And so you say Christianity is the re Lotion for women and old women so that. Is that any? Content of Court? Well, when I have commanded them to saint Jesus, He looked that yellowowl of ours in the face and challenged him, "I have done evil, testify of me, but if not, why commandest thou me to be written!" How's that for turning the other cheek? And when, under similar circumstances the high priest, commanded them to smite St. Paul, that prisoner looked his judge square in the face and retorted, "God, will smite thee, thou whited wall." How's that for, contempt of court? (Laughter). And, they tell you with pious faces how Jesus commanded Peter to put up his sword, but you should observe that He did not say, "throw that sword away, Peter." He simply said, "put it up." Keep that for future reference. (Laughter). They forget to tell you that this same Jesus once called Herod a fox, called the scribes and Pharisees a generation of vipers and a crooked generation, and that He said, "I come not to bring peace, but a sword." And they dread not tell you also that on another unpleasant occasion Jesus said to His disciples: "Any of you here haven't got a sword? Yes? Well, sell your coat and buy one." Personal Sacrifice And herein lies, my friends, what we may call the genius of our Christianity as applicable to the program of race redemption. Christianity teaches us to equip ourselves for heroic racial endeavor even at the price of personal comfort. "Sell your coat and buy a sword." In other words, "make a personal sacrifice in order to bring into realization a better day." It is the voice of militant Christianity speaking through a military Christ. And I know, I submit to you, of no voice nor message more suited to this hour to the Negro peoples of the world in general, and to the members of the U. N. I. A. in particular, than this word of Jesus Hear me. Do, the preacher tell us to fight?" Somebody said, "Nothing different." I did not say that. But I answer to that by "me" quite myself in an article published a time ago in "The Veteran" entitled, "Must the Negro fight?" Must the Nearer Fight? Must the Negro Fight? In that article I wrote: "Must he who fought across the seas to save the world, fight again at home to save himself? Must he who feed death and braved it to make the world safe for democracy, face and brave an unfortunate issue to make America a safe place for his sons and daughters to have? Must the Negro fight? There is a fight ahead of the Negro and the sooner he gets it, it and carries it through-victory the less intense and prolonged shall be the struggle. But where is he to get his weapons? The answer is patent. What is that in thine hand? In the hand of the Negro at the North is the ballot, an effective weapon when rightly wielded. With this weapon he must make his fight fiercely, relentlessly. In most Northern cities the Negro easily constitutes the balance of power. His vote thrown to either of the dominant parties spells defeat to the other. At the primaries his support given to one of two or several closely contending aspirants means victory for that candidate. In the hand of the Negro at the South, is economic force, the most terrific of weapons, more terrible even Chambers of Commerce Your Trans-Continental Freight Rates Carefully Attended To Authentic Information Relative to Shipp- ments to and from Foreign Countries.

Please be warned that we know nothing about the matter, and that it is apparent that a list of the membership of our organization has been stolen from the office. Look out for all new circulars and letters sent by persons asking you to buy stock in such enterprises as Exploration Companies and steamship enterprises. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION than the better because it gives the basis of the斗法. The Negro is the economic cornerstone of the Southland. By the Negro's assertion of the rights in fields and turpentine and other industries of the Southland poweries, public officials have suddenly become embud with strange power and legislation have set in earnest about firing their own remedy for mob violence and discrimination. The Negro feeds and clothes the Southland. He constructs its factories and railroads. He produces its wealth. He clothes the dominant with power. The poor whites eat their bread from his hand. What a weapon he holds in his hand. Really, he could desire no other. The wholesale exodus of Negro labor from the South has done more in one half-year toward revolutionizing the social conditions under which the Negro lives than a score of industrial schools with their doctrines of servility, combined with a score of advancement societies with their doctrines of mere protest, could hope to accomplish in a generation. (Ap-place) Political and Economic Force. With these weapons the Negro must fight. With these weapons, at least, the Negro must fight. I was making a speech like this once and I said, "Political and economic force must be the Negro weapons. That is the balance of power." There was a soldier there who turned to me and said, "Well, charplain, I have just come from France. I was wounded over there. I left a family here. All you say about economic force and political force constituting the balance of power is all right, but when I get back home the first cracker, that tries to intrude on me or any of my family will find this colored gentleman carrying the balance of power in this hip-pocket." (quarterly). But, I only contend tonight that we must use these weapons of political and economic force, and this, my friends, is the only course consistent with the true spirit of our military Christianity, "Onward Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before Christ, the royal Muster, leads against the foe." They made Him on the cross, but this truth still goes marching on. They have incarcerated your leader in the Tombis prison. But shame he upon you if at the cost of personal sacrifice you don't see to it that the cause he so manfully and heroically and fearlessly espoused, wee unto you and shame be upon you. Young men educated in the schools of Porto Rico are fully equipped to come to the United States and compete with boys trained in the States, according to Francis Casanova of Ponce, Porto Rico, a representative of the United Drug Company, now with the Boston branch. Mr. Casanova was educated in his native country and speaks feelingly about its opportunities. "I feel that Porto Rican boys have my advantage over those trained in the States. Inasmuch as the former are thoroughly conversant with both English and Spanish," said Mr. Casanova, who is at the Hotel Pennsylvania. "For this reason, and because of the far greater opportunity offered in the States, young Porto Ricans are flocking to the United States in search of employment. Business opportunities are very much restricted in Porto Rico because there are no industries other than the sugar industry and the operating of plantations, and these are for the most part passed down from father to son. No doubt when American capital has opened up other fields of activity in the island it will no longer be necessary for the young men to leave home. "Political unrest is still general in Porto Rico. Demonstrations and violent attacks in the newspapers are matters of daily occurrence. There are three parties, the Unionist, which will be satisfied with nothing but independence; the Republican, which desires to become a forty-ninth State, and the Socialist party, which is gradually being absorbed into the ranks of the Republicans. The Republicans are strong in number, but most of the capital is in the hands of the Unionists. "Former Governor Riley was un- If you do not see to it, at whatever personal cost, that this cause that your leader espoused goes marching triumphantly on. (Loud applause). "Still your coat and buy a sword, remembering that while yesterday Ethiopia grummed and endured, while today she smiles and trives, tomorrow, please. God, she shall exult in glorious achievement, (Prolonged applause). "Pop" is that quality more beyond for social and business success than any other.

El pueblo americano no piensa en esta hora en el lugar que la historia asignará al presidente Harding. Está deprimido por la sensación de una perdida personal y de una calamidad para el país. Ha visto a Mr. Harding salir de entre el como uno de su propia clase y asumir obligaciones de lo que, quiza, es el cargo más elevado del universo con la mayor sencillez, y sin embargo, con diguidad; sin deslumbrar por el poder, y siempre presto a responder a los llamamientos humános, que nunca miro como extraños a si. Sea lo que quiera lo que sus contribuidanos pensaran de su política pública, sentiase bajo el injullo de sus encanto personal. Ahora que ha partido las gentes se dedicarán a expresar variaciones sobre el antiguo tema: Que deleznables somos y que deleznables son muestros objetivos. Se recordará el cuatro de marzo de 1921, cuando el nuevo presidente, radiante de salud rebosante, se dirigió al Capitolio con el presidente saliente, encanecido y abismado y tullido. Ahora el hombre fuerte se va mientras el invalido se queda. Seguramente las cosas mortales producen lagrimas. Si el presidente Harding pudiera hablar a sus compatriotas hoy, pediriales que tuvieran buenos augu- rios para el futuro de su gobierno. Janás se presentó a si mismo como un superhombre, indispensable al bienestar nacional. Su concepción favora el gobierno americano era la de una gran institución meno- dependiente de un individuo cualquiera que del impulso tras de el ejercido por una inteligente y bonita democracia. Como dijo Gatfield en Wall street en 1865, ese gobierno vive aún cuando su jefe incidental sea abatido. La tristeza que la nación experimenta ante la muerte de un bien amado presidente no necesita ser tefida hoy con aprehensions. La elección de la cartera de Mr. Harding no seria debidamente aprendida si no nos ayudara a sentir que los cimientos de nuestro gobierno estan basados demasiado profunda y anchamente para ser estremedidos ni siquiera por una sacudida como la causada por su partida de la escena del mundo.—N. Y. Times. El Conflicto Entre Cuba y Washington La evidente tensión entre Washington y Cuba ha adquirido delimitativo estado con el llamamiento de embajador Crowder para conferenciar con el secretario Hughes. N° cabe dudar de que la situación debe ser seria, cuando se ha obtenida las dos camaras del congresso cuhano han votado una resolución conunta consumando la intervención de las Estados Unidos en la política interior de la república. Hablando con el lenguaje convencional y contratroducente, que se emplea para tratar de las relaciones con Cuba en este país, ello no dice gran cosa. Pero en la realidad cuenta un hecho inolito que su duda la Casa Blanca va a tratar en escenarios internacionales y en forza inmediata. Conviene, por tanto, dar alunto un verboten gravedad. Lo es practicar cultar los amores de una atención de hecho y ocultar, como los avenciones, la caballo bajo la crema al atrasoarse la tamaña star si Cuba no tiene muy bien copatos si Cuba no tiene muy bien copatos si envuelve en el mismo leño en una profunda perturbación internacional. Y lo menos que puede e intereses que los potríotas examinan de apasionadamente las cuarces de ella, para buscar uniedad pronto que indica uniblemente existe. No hay utilidad en pretender que la existencia internacional de Cuba realiza en los mismos caucas que académicamente, establece la letra de su constitución. La enmienda Platt condiciona la libertad de acuerdos del gobierno de la Habla y sujeta a la nación a un genero, más de menas desemozado, de supervisión de Washington. Ànte la realidad, hay dos caminos. O chozar con ella, esperar del confío el resultado que surja, seael que fuere, o reconocerla, considera sus imposiciones y amoldar a ellas quantas iniciativas tengamos para evitar, con la propia reserva, la corrección ajena Cuba está indecluenablemente en esta posición. La supervisión americana es un hecho. Edulirla sólo es posible por la violencia o por un estricto amoldamiento nacional a las restricciones de la realidad. Lo ha hecho siempre Cuba? Evidentemente no. Han sido inevitables las contravenciones de esos limites que le impone la ley de los hechos fatales? No siempre. Lo es en el caso actual? La ley de Lotierias aprobada por el congreso cubano en forma arrolladora, pasando sobre el veto del presidente Zayas, examinada a la distancia, sin demaisios elementos de juicio todavía, es discutible en muchos aspectos. Y en algunos resuelfamente censurable. De todos modos, el congreso de la Habana, al interpretar ese asunto como netamente interno: procedia dentro de una lógica académica. Y era, así explicable su protección contra contra la intervención del embajador de los Estados Unidos. Pero la realidad es otra, muy otra. La pequeña república ileva agrogadas a su constitución en letra en espiritu, con lo invocable forzada de lo consumal determinadas imunitaciones a su libertad de acción en problemas internos de ocierta indole. Esto se debe en Cuba y debe no olvidarse. No para compaginecer su autoridad, su sofrimiento para ponerla a sus ritmo de movimiento peligros mercer. Ato no para no buscar choques y con la FUERZA MAYOR tancicana. El gran periodista Márquez Sterling dijolo en frase lapidaria en 1916, en momentos identicos a los actuales bajo el gobierno del presidente Menocal. "Contra la ingerencia extraña, la virtud domestica". Y en eso, sólo en eso, encontrarios los patriotas cubanos la solución.—La Prensa, N. Y. El Pueblo Filipino Apoya la Política de Quezón El vicepresidente del partido demócrata filipino, señor Sumuloui renunció a consecuencia de la crisis gubernamental que dio por resultado la renuncia de muchos miembros del gabinete. El motivo de su renuncia, según manifestó, era que su factitud no tenía el apoyo de su partido. El presidente del mismo partido, señor Montinola, debia llegar de Iloilo y se cuenta también con su renuncia. Estas renuncias causarán necesariamente un nuevo realincamiento político. La noticia de estas renuncias es importante, porque se deja que en los partidos filipinos habia una escisión con motivo de la crisis entre el gobernador Wood y los dirigentes filipinos. Deciase que los dirigentes democratas apoyaban al gobernador Wood, lo cual implica, de ser cierto, que esta actitud no tenía el apoyo del partido que representaban, por el hecho mismo de la renuncia. Deja ver, también, que los filipínos están haciendo causa común en la presente crisis ministerial. A este efecto se recuerdan las palabras recientes del héroe filipíno Agumaldo al dar a su pueblo el alerta de que debian precaverse contra toda división que se pretendiera en el seno de las agrupaciones filipinas. El presidente del senado, señor Quezon, traera así ante los Estados Unidos la representación eleva del pueblo filipíne, cuando espenga el caso ante el presidente. Cables anteriores de presta bianian dicho que el portillo denotativo no apoyaba a los presidenes del senado, señor Quevén, v de la camara, señor Rojas. Nhora se acuerda que seite cette diputación y en dores han puesto la reunión de un respectivo representante. La crisis así permanece en pie, no odiendo los senadores an alumbrar las pregrantías de la reunión ni la otra prueba. Lo está la reunión hacer, la convención pasa, el nar las nueve vescitos. Derecho al Sufragio Denegado Luego de dicha en la comisión del senado sobre el proyecto no sentado por elgreso, senadores en que se concele a la mujer prejuveniente el decreto de intagua con motivo de una exigencia de su grupo de dynasty que no han pasado la mujer a tal detrata, el entro en votación en cuando el proyecto negado por el senadores.

El senador societa Iglesia, cu tivo hablando luego tanto en lavor del proyecto, lo mi mo que el señor Hernández López el licenciado Tous Soto. Dirigio la oposición al proyecto el senador Cuevas Zequeua. Tous Soto arguyo que así como se habla aprobado la abolición de la pena de nuerte debin decrearse el sufragio feminino. Cuevas Zequeura le re- plico que las mujeres eran las que mandaban, poniéndole como ejem- plo que si su señora se empenaba en que el no fuera al cinematógrafo el senzador Tous Soto no iria. Cuevas Zequiera termino diciendo que el consideraba que lo más grande, lo más noble que habia en Puerto Rico era el hogar como estaba constituido y que el quería conservar, de acuerdo con la educación y tradiciones de los antepasados. Agregaba que seria la destrucción del hogar permitir que la mujer tuviera el derecho de yoto, pues se desvincularia de hecho de las santas obligaciones de la familia para trasladar sus actividades necesarias en la casa. ing them on one another with compound utensils. What is the use of Marquis Gravy, this was right in the Timber Life Moved to Cycle Mr. Hastings then proposed his philosophy of world change. God, he said, has expressed Himself just an powerfully through the black hosts as He has through the white or the yellow. He allows no people the monopoly of the magnificence and grandeur and beauty and power of the universe. The ancient Egyptians and Ethiopians were once a people of invincible dominion. They passed their scapecro on to the yellow Yokos, the Assyrians and the Chaldeans, who in turn had to give way to Darlus and Cyuns. And today the signs of the times were that the Japanese were coming into their own. Nothing in the world happened by chance. What is called chance to the finite mind is simply unrevealed law. Molecular physics showed that all space was matter and all matter who life in various stages. And since life moves there was nothing like death. Death was simply a chance. Life moved in a cycle. Ethiopia shall yet stretch forth her hand into God. The speaker next lade the race not to place any trust in an improvement in their condition because of the yellow man's rise to power. "The Chinese and Japanese look like our composite type," he said, but they are no friends of ours. I want to tell you something about the yellow race. It is not so much a matter of prejudice as of a difference of psychology. Their minds are made up differently. A Chinese man, a Japanese, an East Indian looks at things and feels differently. He belongs to life with different eyes, his customs are different, his whole concept of a future life is different. He does not understand us and we do not understand him. When these yellow folks come into power, they will be yellow folks. And if Hope is not sufficient for himself, he will be worse off under them than under Tapiroth." (Apparent.)

Marcur Survey had awakened the Negro, and for that he should have the undying attitude of Negroes. The hour had eluded for the Negro to prepare for the historical march of hostility and Negro must ensue against their men of religion. The poetic pathflegs, musicians, musicians, and sculptors of the people who must preserve for future ages the feats and surpass the struggles and triumphs of the Negro must be so insulted. The world traps too busy that is not going to admit anything to the chairman, Mr. Carter. He spoke as follows: "Southern Negro no longer needed in labor centers. Real test of competition with white workers is soon to come. New problems seen. Various cities report that blacks are being laid off in large numbers." This was taken from the Evening World of July 31. This article deals with the very thing that the Hon. Marcus Garvey has been telling Negroes for the last five years. He has been telling Negroes that when black men come in and compete for jobs with white men, when the struggle for meat and bread became keen, that the white race would be taken and the Negroes would be put out. This same article says that there are fifteen ships loaded with aliens who are acceptable laborers waiting for the August quotas to become effective that they may come into the United States and get the jobs held by Negroes. The white man is the same the world over. Blood is thicker than water. The white man will put a Negro out to make room for a white man, the matter where he comes from. And the paper quotes Mr. Abbott of the Chicago Defender for the Chicago Offender, as Mr. Poston calls it, who says something like this: "To the average man in the present migratory movement of the Negro is something new, both man and the big man in industry who show their own business it is not strange it is the most natural and bogged-up in the world. There is one feature which, of course, is new and that is the volume of the migration. There are two basic reasons for this. He then went on to say that the war created a need for additional labor in the North and then he philosophized to Mr. Abbott a satirical Mrs. Mc Gaffer proceeded to state, who faced well at the Negro's expense, could intend to give white men such new shoes that he for the first remained alone in Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Vienna, New Cleveland and Cincinnati, in the West as well as in the Northeast. He there was a hard winter common. The end of Negro's who have come from the Southlands would be shown out of employment.

But in Liberty Hall thousands of persons rifianning the intense heat unheeded in their longing to hear the weekly message of the Hon. Marcus Garvey from the Tombs prison, set to carry on their Sunday night meeting, the despair of the enemy who expected a waning of interest to follow the great leader's incarceration. If, after Independence Day's celebrations, after the increase in enthusiasm displayed ever since Marcus Garvey's imprisonment, by the New York Division there was still a single individual who doubted that the fame of liberty, kindled by the man, was burning brighter than ever, a visit to Liberty Hall tonight would have convinced him. Far from there being a falling off the attendance seemed larger than that of a week ago. It was a remarkable demonstration of the determination of a group to achieve their goal, a splendid tribute to their absent chieftain. The New York Division has rightly been called the burmeter of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. T. New York the divisions throughout the world look for inspiration and guidance. And New York's splendid conduct in this hour of the association's trial has given its sister branches a lead which they have not been slow to follow. The result has been a worldwide simulation of effort which augurs well for the future. The reading of the President-Genral's message was received with great applause. The chairman, R. G. Emonel Carter, Vice-President of the New York Local, announced that Mrs. Garvey was prevented from attending the meeting by illness and called upon the Hon. Sir Clifford S. Bourne Chancellor, to read the message. When he concluded there were insistent calls for a second reading and the longer applause. The message was a follow- We Are All the Creatures of Our Environment "The Tombs. "Centro St., New York, "August 4, 1923. "Members and Friends. Liberty Hall: "We were severely shocked a couple of days ago on learning of the death of President Harding. "The Nation's Chief Executive, of himself, was a friend of our cause, and I believe that he, as a man, felt a deep interest in the struggle of our race to reach the top. He was only man, and therefore had unfortunately, no doubt, to yield his desire of recognition of and service to a cause to the environments that generally hinder us at times from doing just that which we ourselves believe to be right. President Harding, with all that can be said, was indeed a great man and liberal soul. "We should mourn his loss, and I ask that our Liberty Hall remain in mourning for the entire month of August, as a small token of our bereavement and sorrow in losing so great a friend to the cause of humanity. "We should believe that the President's work was not finished; that he intended more than he did; but that he was only a steward who had to give account of his stewardship, and he was hurriedly called. Presy for the repose of his soul and, as you rise, may I not ask also that you chant a psalm of life for the entry of the spirit of our friend into the realm of eternal bliss? "Keep up your good work and hold fast to the ideal of your choice, as the prayer of "Your humble recipient." "President, General, Universal Negro Improvement Association." The chairman announced that a memorial service for the late President of the United States would be held in Liberty Hall on Friday evening, Aug. 10. It was also announced that Aug. 17, "Garvey Day," marked the thirty-seventh anniversary of the birth of the President General and the day would be fittingly celebrated a special outing and more meeting having been arranged. The meeting was preceded by the usual exercises by the auxiliaries and musical items. The U. N. I. A. band under Prod. Arnold Ford, musical director, gave excellent service, its marked improvement being much praised to its leader. Master Schoeffer. was warmly applauded for can excellent recitation. The chairman stated that it was his intention to make a speech in reply to an article by William Pickens, headed "Emperor of Africa," appearing in the current number of the Forum Magazine, but, owing to the late hour and the unusual heat, he would postpone his speech until Wednesday night. Able addresses were delivered by two visitors, Councillor Freeman L. Martin, of St Louis, Mo., and Mr. Wilfred L. Griffith, executive secretary of the Cambridge Division. Mass. Below is the full text of the speech: COUNSELLOR MARTIN'S ADDRESS Councillor F. L. Martin spoke as follows: "Mr. Chamman, ladies and gentlemen I come before you this evening to extend to you greetings from the St. Louis Division. The St. Louis Division is not larger as the New York Division, but I can truly say it is 600 per cent loyal to the parent body and to our matchless leader, the Hon Marcus Garvey (Applause) I want to say to you to have patience. All of you know Rome was not built in a day. The great enterprise in which you are now engaged, and in its scope. Divine in its inspiration, and I want to say to you, 'Go on! You must keep the faith. Like the apostles of old like the first messengers of old you must keep the faith so that when the summons calls you from this world to the world above you can save. I have fought a good fight. I have kept faith and have all I have the hope of the world. You many of us have the hope of the world with unlimited hope. You must keep the faith you will be able to say like David. I have insisted. Do not leave with uninsured business and do not leave this life to insure with uninsured business. Do everything the President may need to do in the ordinary and the fortunate cases of the world. A Bare on Trial Why should do you know this is the hour of our trial? The Negro race is on land. Morris Givney is only an incident to the trial. Instead of Murray Givney on trial, the Negro race is on trial. The whole intelligent world is looking to see what you are going to do when your garrison and forensic border is in the tools of the law. And I want to see, while the news reports travel, greatly misrepresented you to sets of prejudices and sets of prejudice, that there is no race under the sun, that there is no savage tribes of Africa to the most enlightened nations of the earth, which if its leader was not incarcerated or being trampled down would not make a supreme effort to have its leader released. And want not to be ordered and ordered at war. Let the law be a science. That is the only manly thing to do the only world way to succeed. Let me do this in memory of our distinguished impatient Bessold Harding. You own governments are foundation men, but the government of Jesus Christ must be on. Leaders may go but tried has always raised up a man able and ready to take the place. And though our great leader is temporarily out of commission, there are others who are carrying on the work, and some day soon I predict, your leader will be here among you in this Liberty Hall once more (Applause). "Gasoline on Fire" I want to say to you the Negro race on trial. Please do not let the verdict be 'guilty.' I know you will be acquitted from your action since your leader's incarceration. And the world known or the powers that he known that you would have responded so publicly since his incarceration, they would never have incarcerated him. But they thought that by incarcerating him this movement would die, your spirit would be crushed, but instead of your spirit being crushed (it was like pouring gasoline on fire) (aprairie). My fellow citizens, life without liberty is slavery. Everybody wants liberty. We fought at Bunker Hill Christopher Attucks was the first to christen liberty with his precious blood, and in every war, in every conflict in which the Stars and Stripes have been involved you have marched the blood so are march- will eliminating for others will eliminate for others will eliminate for others intud Neurosis se Activam me. He noticed my Masonic emblems and congratulated me for having secured my thirty-two degrees in Masonry. But he could not understand my button. He said, 'Friend, I am glad to see members of your race so high in Masonry, but I am curious about that button there.' I said, 'What is it if you wish to know?' He said, 'What does U. N. I. A. mean?' I said, 'It is very simple. Nothing special about it. It simply means, United Negroes In Action.' (Laughter). I want to tell you, friends, we must be united to advance. Without unity we will not get anywhere. You remember the old lesson taught with the seven sticks. Unity is strength. And at no time since the coming of Christ, have Negroes been getting closer together than the present time. The Spirit Must Live "I want to tell you Marcus Garvey is the martyr of his race. He is the plumed knight of democracy, the mourning star of Negro inspiration and cooperation. When Christ was here walking the shores of Galilee, they followed Him everywhere trying to find fault, seeking to take His life. On every hand they cried, 'Crucify Him, crucify Him.' So it is today with the greatest leader that has been on the scene since the coming of Christ; on all sides you hear them say, 'Crucify him, crucify him.' But, ladies and gentlemen, you may crucify him, but you cannot crucify his spirit, you cannot crucify his inspiration he gave to the world. If this organization stood for nothing more than to inspire these boys and girls, it will have justified its existence. St. Louis' Loyalty. "In conclusion, let me say that the St. Louis Division sends you hearty greetings. They have sent me to convey these greetings and to offer any assistance possible to our great leader in securing his release, and when I return to them I will have something to tell them. I will be able to tell them of the courageous, spirited manner in which you are standing us under this load. St. Louis may not be as strong as you are but I am proud to say, we are just as loyal and strong as you are." (Loud applause) greetings from the Cambridge Division We are small in numbers compared with you, but we are 100 per cent of the light for justice for the Hon Marus Garvey. (Applause) Someone in speaking about your Liberty Hell described it as a law, rumbling, and smelling building from which the General Negro Improvement Association ran out its propaganda. But are the members of the University we do not deserve it that way. We do describe it as the capable of theory from which has emanated that good inti- tribution to Negroes to go out and achieve. When we look back to the day when the Negro was taken from his native habitat and sold in the market of the world, we cannot help but be thankful that we have not born in such a time, the time when men con- didered shattered slavery a necessity of the age. The Neare's Gothsman One hundred years ago the condition of the Negro in this Western hemisphere was one of untold misery. Forced from early morning until late at night to do his master's bidding, whipped to death it became the whim of those for whom he tailed the Negro and marvelled that God would bless his burden or take him from this earthly vale. No mention of freedom no reward for service was there to strengeth him. The future for before him dim dark and distress. In his imagination he seemed always to hear the clark of the slave chant to feel the lash of the slave driver driving him on and on in the heat of a sorrowful sun. Hunger and footwear he became the child of circumstances. Drawn into the verbs he was given freedom by Alisham Lunia, a freedom his countrymen in the West Indies had received thirty years before from Queen Victoria of England. From his social redefinitions condition he strove to redeem himself, but he lacked the predecessors most essential to the realization of his ambition. The former slave owners did not take kindly to the changed conditions. They could not accept any form of legislation which attempted to place former servants on an equal footing with themselves. They were determined that though the Negro was free from chattel slaves he should still be a slave. With this object in view they began to spread a sinister propaganda that taught the inferiority of Negroes to the other races of the world, that black men could not achieve, for the Negro was destined to be nothing better than newers of wood and drawers of water. And Negroes so drank from the poisonous well that they practically remained in their former condition. But all were not misled. Some endeavored to build up the morale of their brothers and help them to gain their constitutional rights. A Leader Arrives The, the man got hold of those Negroes and by brill brought anank and fl the cards their longing up, and at last like a aky there appeared a uttering character, of it purpose-there apo scene that character- stalwart Negro people of the Marcus Garvey. (Ap- anized the Universal Association, butders, who have been thouf that finding the they must travel, told at Garvey's program is must go, to Africa, we have lost nothing In Africa, and we are quite content to seek a place here and there rather than leave our good white friends." But the Negro heard the voice of Marcus Garvey cryin' in the wilderness, and the voice said, Fellow members of the Negro race, stand up for your rights. You may seek a place here, you may seek a place there, but remember the greater goal, the greater object, a national home of your own on the continent of Africa. A Negro Intellectual's Legacy A Negro Intellectual's Legacy "A few weeks ago we read in the Chicago Defender where one of our so-called Intellectual Negroes who has been working so hard for social equality has now come out flat-footed for segregation, because, she said, his daughter, is a product of a Jim-Crow school and he inherited that feeling from his white grandfather. While these Negroes are advocating segregation we members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are seeking to improve morally, socially, and economically, and we are advocating a national home for the Negro because we have received that great love of freedom from our African forefathers. The Negro of today has studied the Universal carefully, and after careful study he has come to the conclusion it is the only movement which aims for the complete unity and emancipation of the race. Heretofore he has been content to travel his life following the line of least resistance, submissive and at the beck and call of the other races of the world, but at last a change has taken place. He is anxious to learn of his own achievements, and so, he has turned back the pages of history and has found out that black men once ruled in Africa and were the dominant people of civilization. He has awakened to racial consciousness. He has not lost confidence in Marcus Garvey, and he will not lose confidence in Marcus Garvey. He faces the future with a great object in view. He faces the future more closely united. He faces the future with the realization that he has lost something in Africa, that Marcus Garvey has shown him the only way in which to region what he has lost, and therefore the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall be put over" (Loud applause.) The Chancellor's Tribute was their hope that the president-general would soon be restored to them. As a member of the Committee of Management he must say that when he perceived the splendid manner in which members were rallying to the cause it gave him great inspiration. The respected executive of this great nation had been taken away, but the work of government would go on. So with the U N L A. Though the great leader was temporarily removed from their duties, the work must go on. Marcel Garvey was suffering because he had the spirit of true and unselfish leadership. Founder of the Monavian Decline where he was taken before the Emperor out then he was told to retreat, refused preferring to suffer death. Marcel Garvey too, preferred to suffer rather than retract one word. But though he might suffer the principles of the I. N. I. A. will stand forever. The meeting closed with the success of the Ethiopian national authority. STABBED IN THE KNEE Dermatologic pain sometimes feel if someone is stabbing you with a knife.

The Story That Will Go Down in History to Tell a Tale to Our Children and All Negro Posterity THE ONE WHO SEES, JUDGES THE AFFAIRS OF MAN, AND WEIGHS AT BALANCES THE DESTINIES OF RACES AND NATIONS, SMILES AT OUR ACTS AS "WE KNOW NOT WHAT WE DO" Not Russia! Not the "Wilds" of Asia or Africa; but New York, and Under a Republican Form of Administration THE MAN WHO RUNS MAY READ!!! Read for Yourself and Then Hold Your Peace, for Justice Will Be Done Three men are convicted, two white and one black. One white man was convicted on July 13, 1923, in Brooklyn, New York, for fraud to the extent of $610,000. He was found guilty on thirty-four counts, each count carrying a penalty of five years each and a fine of $5,000, making an aggregate sentence of 170 years and $170,000 in fines. After the jury returned the verdict of "guilty," this man was given bail in the amount of $15,000 to appear for sentence. When he was sentenced a few days after, he was given two years and fined $2,000 with bail on appeal. His crime was committing fraud on a bank in which thousands of people placed their savings. The other white man, a minister of the Gospel, was convicted in Denver, Colorado, on July 25, 1923, on two counts, for forgiving permits to supply liquor to rich residents of his city. The penalty for the crime on each count is five years' imprisonment, and a fine of not more than $10,000.00. On the 26th of July he was sentenced to two years in Federal Prison for each count, to run sale of stock to help me take stock in a commercial improvement. All the money collected was spent for the promotion of the company that bought three ships. The case lasted twenty-seven days. It could not be shown where Garvey got one penny of the money for stock for his personal use, but on the contrary he was the largest stockholder and greatest loser in the unfortunate failure of the concern, caused through the wiles of his enemies. He was indicted on eleven counts. He was found guilty of one count on the 18th of June, in an atmosphere of prejudice. The maximum penalty on the one count was a fine of $1,000 or five years, or both. After conviction before sentence, he applied for bail pending sentence. His application was denied. When brought for sentence, three days after, he was given the maximum of five years and a fine of $1,000. Application for bail pending appeal was denied. He is still in jail. Three other applications for bail were made and all denied. We have three cases, one a bank commercial fraud for personal gain; one an unnecessary and unusual violation of law; the other the effort to help a race by an experiment, in fact, that teaches self-help and self-reliance. The first two are given the fullest opportunity to prove their innocence; the latter, "fortunately" a black man, in a white country is deprived of every opportunity of proving his innocence and especially that he tried his own case counsel.
