FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE. Greeting: I think it but my duty to explain, and sometimes expose, to you the hypocrisy and deception of that class of Negro haters and exploiters, unfortunately so-called members of our own race, who, by their movements, are more dangerous to our progress than any alien outsider can be.
Socialist Turns Capitalist
News has been received that Chandler Owen, the rank "red" Socialist of yesterday, has become a capitalist out in Los Angeles, Cal.
Secretary of the Uncle Toms
Everybody will remember Owen as the Negro who acted as secretary of the "infamous committee of eight" that signed the stool-pigeon and Uncle Tom "telling" letter to Attorney-General Dougherty, asking him, the Government and the white people of the United States to hurriedly convict Marcus Garvey and send him to Atlanta and destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association, as it was more dangerous than the Ku Klux Klan.
Teaching Socialism to Negroes
Owen is the Negro who, in company with his partner, went up and down the country for years preaching to Negroes the doctrine of Socialism, telling us that we should link up with the white working man to destroy capital, and that we should be against all Negro individuals and movements that sought to foster capitalism among the race. This is the gent who fought against the Universal Negro Improvement Association and who helped to destroy the Black Star Line, to satisfy the white Socialists who were against Negroes going into business, and who, for over a year, fought under the slogan, "Garvey must go."
To Live in Los Angeles
According to press reports, it is alleged that this same Owen is now to take up his residence in the City of Los Angeles as president of the Los Angeles Development Company, a concern to deal in real estate, etc. Can this really be the Chandler Owen who advised Negroes under the direction of white Socialists to discard property and capitalism? Is this the man who so viciously attacked Marcus Garvey and the Black Star Line as capitalists?
The "Boasting Educated?"
How sad it is for these "boasting educated" Negroes to take advantage of the poor people whom they take pride in referring to always as "ignorant" and "benighted." Do you wonder why the so-called "intellectuals" of our race call us "ignorant"?
Collecting for Magazine
But isn't this the same Owen who, with his partner, has collected thousands of dollars year in and year out as annual subscriptions to the Messenger, which magazine appears probably three months out of every year, and when it suits the youngsters to make a "new drive" for annual subscriptions? Is this the fellow who, it is alleged, received moneys from white Socialist organizations and white labor unions and organizations to deliver the Negro, bag and baggage? Is this the fellow who, it is alleged, received money from the radical white Socialist-revolutionary ring to link up Negroes to undermine the democracy of America? Is it true that this Owen has become a capitalist? The following bit of news, clipped from the New York Age, speaks for itself:
"Chandler Owens Moves
"Chandler Owens, widely known locally as a Socialist and editor of the Messenger magazine, has given up his citizenship in New York and located in Los Angeles, Cal., according to the California Eagle, a weekly newspaper of that city.
"According to the Eagle, Owens recently returned, to Cali-

HOW MUCH WAS PAID TO "GET" MARCUS GARVEY?
WHERE DID THE MONEY COME FROM?
NEGRO, "ALMOST" WHITE, CLAIMS THAT HE IS "ROCK OF GIBRALTAR" FOR RACE, AND WANTS NEGROES TO INVEST THEIR MONEY WITH HIM AFTER HE ASSIDUOUSLY WORKED TO DESTROY BIGGEST VENTURE OF THE RACE—THE BLACK STAR LINE AND THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION
THE REASON FOR ATTACKING THE BLACK STAR SHOW
fornia after a lecture tour of several months and organized the California Development Company with offices at 12011/2 Central avenue, with the following officers: Chandler Owens, president; M. G. Stokes, vice president; Dr. J. T. Smith, treasurer; Elijah Cooper, secretary: Thomas J. Blow, R. C. Owens, Dr. F. At Pearl and Dr. E. C. Nelson as directors.
"The company will deal primarily in real estate and development projects, and it is said to have already purchased a 12,000 acre piece of property. The company has also announced through the Eagle that it will provide for the locating of thousands of Negroes from the South in Los Angeles.
"Apparently Owens has been converted from his social views since leaving New York and is now a full-fledged capital."
Was He Afraid of the East?
Why is it Owen has gone to California as a capitalist? Was he afraid of playing the capitalist in the East, where he is so well known? Is he afraid of facing his black Socialist dupes who followed him for years and listened to his bunk at the street corners of Harlem? Or he is afraid of being called upon to return the "annual subscriptions" to the suckers for the "only" Journal of Scientific Radicalism?
Is He the Some Man?
When the writer met one Chandler Owen in 1917 or 1918, the young man had contemplated marrying a white lady whom he claimed was nearer to him in the world than anybody else. I wonder if this is the same Chandler Owen who, after much talk about Socialism, and who, after attending several free-for-all Socialist dances, where it was the craze for black men to dance with white women, changed around after Claude McKay got his daubing for being too close to Max's sister?
When Did He Chance?
When did Owen change heart? Was it before or after he wrote the letter to the Attorney-General? Was it before or after he campaigned on the slogan, Garvey must go!? How much did Owen get for writing the letter against Garvey? How much did he get for campaigning against Garvey? If he got anything, where did it come from? And if it was a large amount, is it the reason why he has become a capitalist immediately after Garvey has been convicted? Was the job finished?
Quick Change Artists

Socialist Owen, in the face of all he has said and done, becoming a capitalist! And we must not fail to take note that his activities will be, according to report, among Negroes leaving the South for Los Angeles. Have these Negroes ever heard of the "Socialist twins"? Will some one not enlighten them on the Pacific coast? But Owen is not singular in his game of "quick change artist;" for we have Cyril Briggs, the Crusader man, who fought the Black Star Line out of business and the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Marcus Garvey, claiming that they were capitalists, making a "swing around." Briggs is the highly "colored" West Indian on Seventh avenue, New York; whom it is hard to tell at midday from a white man. He, it was known, was a "Red" or Bolshevik, and against all forms of government and capitalism except Communism or Sovietism. Briggs' Crusader that disappeared, his Crusader service that included himself and the "wit" Domingo and the so-called African Blood Brotherhood, made a terrific bid for Bolshevism in the United States, denouncing all the activities of the Black Star Line, the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Marcus Garvey in favor of the new program of Communism. Yet, now we find this Briggs and his African Blood Brotherhood copying the program, and even the constitution, of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and making efforts to induce
improvement Association, and making efforts to induce Negores to start banks, grocery stores and co-operative enterprises under the auspices of the African Blood Brotherhood. How much African blood Brie veins is hard to tell, or daylight, nevertheless, brotherhood is the "Negroes' Rock of Gibraltar.
"Crusader" Magazine
These Socialist and Bolsheviki gentlemen have, no doubt, changed with the wind that blows from Moscow, but they haven't the common decency to at least serve notice upon their clients. No one can tell what has become of Briggs' Crusader magazine and his Liberator, to which the public paid annual subscriptions.
Should Investigate
The Government would do well to continue its investigation of frauds among Negroes by investigating the activities of the "gentlemen" who signed the petition to the Attorney-General, for by so doing, not only the "Rock of Gibraltar" would show up in conjunction with the Grusalr and Liberator but at least one of our bogus real estate "millionaires" in New York and the "New Effort" far out West, as well as Black Swan, may fall into the hand of the investigator. We hope Kelly Miller's, "Sanhedrin" will give us a permanent leadership that will not take its dictation from Moscow and deliver all of us over to Bolshevism under the guise of the "Rock of Gibraltar," but make us see things and ourselves from the Negro's point of view.
Paper Display Organizations
We must also warn our race about accepting every and any organization forced upon us by mere paper display. We would like to know more about the so-called African Blood Brotherhood. Who are its officers? What is its purpose or object, and why a Negro whom you can hardly tell from a white man should be its executive head, when, by affliction; he is in an hour unable to stutter out a coherent sentence of explanation? The hour has come for Negroes to watch their steps, and this is a warning in that direction.
With my best wishes for your success, I have the honor to be
Your obedient servant.

ARTICLES DEALING WITH GARVEYISM ARE CONCLUDED
RACE WITH ITS OWN GOVERNMENT AND COUNTRY WILL WIN RECOGNITION AND RESPECT NEGRO ORGANIZATIONS MOST PERSISTENT IN PERSECUTIONS LOSING GROUND
We reproduce the final installment of Editor Keith's brilliant series of articles on Garveyism in America. The articles which have been published in his paper, the Pittsburgh American, and reproduced by us, have been written with a simplicity and fire that won our hearts. As we feel sure it did the thousands of our readers all over the world. It was a faithful, impartial, accurate array of facts given in a clear concise style that held the reader with a grip. Mr. Keith is a writer whose language is opuscule without exuberance, exact without constraint, and easy without weakness. We want to publicly express our appreciation of the fairness that prompted him to deal with a subject that so many others, either from prejudice or sheer inability to think, could not grasp, and to excuse him that his contribution to the cause will be cherished by every right thinking member of the race.
You are blind like us. Your hurt no man designed, And no man claimed the conquest of your land. But gropers, both through fields of thought confined We stumble and we do not understand, You only saw your future bigly planned, And we, the tapering paths of our own mind And in each other's dearest ways we stand, And hisis and hate. And the blind fight the blind. When it is peace, then we may view again With new-won eyes each other's truer form And wonder: Grown more loving-kind and warm. We'll greep firm hands and laugh at the old pain. When it is peace. But until peace, the storm, The darkness and the thunder and the rain."
The Universal Negro Improvement Association truly represents the dreams of Mareus Garvey—as thinker, philosopher, builder and pathfinder for people of African descent. It includes the logic, the psycheology, the experiences and characteristics of all Negroes. It has been considered and denounced as impractical by some, while making a passionate appeal to others. This is to be expected. No ideals are practical, and none ever become so but those men strive with all their might to realize. Mareus Garvey and the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are firmly convinced of the worth of their ideal: faith of this kind will contribute to making it possible.
imation, Marcus Garvey came into direct conflict with the ambitions of others trying to plant a big future for people of African descent. Thus began the hissing and hating of opposing forces, which can block the roads to Understanding, Unity and Peace. The darkness and storm will pass when these forces shake hands, and with the dust out of their eyes behold the best there is in each other for the good of all. It will not help the case of the Negro for either faction to persist in upbraiding and denouncing the other. It is a good sign to observe growing big-heartedness on the part of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the factions hitherto bitter and relentless in their efforts to destroy Marcus Garvey and the organization he has founded out of his interest and love of his race.
Some few man contents persist in their efforts to stamp Garvey as a criminal by contributions to white publications. Some have gone for enough to assert that the Universal Negro Improvement Association should be destroyed as representing the spirit of Marcus Garvey, demoralizing the fight of Negroes for economic, political and social betterment. Those "bitter endorses" charge that the U.N.A accepts the dictum viz: "that a Negro has no rights which a white man is bound on respect." Nothing is more ridiculous than Negro keeping from his black corner in our American life to a white newspaper or monthly periodical with copy intended to daunt a number of has nothing more dangerous to the future of Negroes everywhere. Fortunately for them, the time has come when the opinion of a man in a type weighs very little with the great majority of people whose cars are clobbed to the Negro type persistent in the ambition to keep before the public show, whether by pretending to build up or plainly bent upon teasing down. Even the host of whites mark this Negro type as a renegade unworthy of the trust and confidence of anyone. Many of the uncertainties and most substantial white friends of the Negro have expressed themselves as being distressed at the growing proportion of the race

"The Wasted Million Dollars."
If Marmo Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association have "wanted" a million dollars, then every Negro organization has been "wasting" the money collected with the intention of doing some good for the cause. Marmo Garvey and his people have been shooting the money with the same sincere and honest motives prompting them. Undoubtedly this money has been spent by them trying to further their ideal. It has found its way back to the problems of the white people from which it came and in the same way, the money gathered by every other Negro organization and its spokesmen, from Negro "washersmen and workers," has turned its way back to the problems of the white people from which it came. If Garvey and his people have "wanted a million" then by all the gods above or below, all Negroes in America are "wasting" their money. Under their present system of living, striving, struggling and attempting to do, they couldn't keep from "wasting" it if they tried ever so hard to do so. However, whether the money has been really wasted by either depends upon the value of the service attempted by the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the opposing organizations.
The Matter of Values in Service.
Existence is value, and must be considered in every valuation; that which has no existence has no value; it is in the air and a dream. Value must be attached to every evil which is the source of the creation of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and other organizations. Values must be attached to the good service each has rendered in its own way, remedying the evil for which the organization was founded; they work each has done in approaching the goal of Truth; encouraging Goodness as the ought-to-be in successful moral effort, and Beauty as an essential in the self-recognition of Negroes.
Some may say, the idea of "Africa for Africans" and an "African Redemption Fund" in a dream and foolish to contemplate. Others may just as well and fairly say, the idea of a "Million Dollars" to stop the lynching of Negroes in America is just as dreamy and foolish. Back or the possibility of any final success in redeeming Africa for people of African descent; behind any possible success in putting a stop to the lynching and burning of Negroes in America must stand. Force—the cruel, merciless and bloody monster which is the god of all revolutionary changes in our civilization.

over to any organization to wage a successful war on lynching and injustice will be wanted unless American white, people make up their minds to put a stop to lynching and the unjust treatment of Negroes. When they make up their minds the American white man will be behind the ballots and bullets that put a stop to lynching and injustice to Negroes in this country. The idea advanced by one small element of U. N. I. A. enemies, that the organization is a menace because it accepts the dictum "that a Negro has no rights which a white man is bound to respect." is looked upon as worse than foolish by many others. A white man is bound to respect no right of any Negro without Force to compel him to do so. Morally, he may be bound to do so and it may be right. But in the eyes of the world today—Might is Right. Where is the might of the Negro with which he can furnish convincing proof of his convulsions about any matter involving liberty, justice and opportunity in America? It has no existence, no value. It is in the air and a mere dream of mental wanderers too stupid; too inexperienced, too lazy and cowardly to face a fact walking nude before every Negro in America today.
In the New York Prison
The body of Marcus Garvey is in the bombs prison of New York. His spirit is free. Negroes put Marcus Garvey there. The white man merely followed the orderly procedure of his government when the jury found Marcus Garvey "guilty" and sentenced him to five years imprisonment as the result of the persecution of Marcus Garvey by members of his race, who to accomplish their designs inspired some weak-kneed members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to help in doing the worst to injure the career of Marcus Garvey and damage the work of the organization.
The imprisonment of Marcus Graves under the circumstances has hurt the spirit of every Negro in America believing the least in fair play and a square deal for all men. The Negro individuals and organizations most persistent in his persecution are losing ground in the estates of Negroes who love their kind, and do not take kindly any sinister and malicious effort to deprive them of their natural right to select their own leader; invest their (Continued on page 5).
The Appointment of Bascom Slemp
To the Editor of the World: In general of your editorials you put forth the idea that Mr. Coolidge, in appointing Bascom Slemp as his secretary, was moved by political motives; that he had his eye on the Solid Sinclair as a reserve from which to extract votes in the event that he is nominated for President. I think, however, that you are wrong.
Mr. Coolidge comes from the most cultured section of the United States, where every schoolboy knows his history well. We cannot measure his intelligence with the same rule that used to measure Mr. Ford's. He know that when we say Solid South we mean an unbreakable something. a part of the world where the Republican Party is looked upon as a plague, and who a Republican politician, no matter if he is a Presidential aspirant, is as much out of place as a Christian would be in the mosques of the Easterns. Mr. Coolidge is not a Roosevelt, and Mr. Roosevelt toured the South vainly in an effort to give his party a little standing. He came out, a popular man, but he and his political faith were more popular out than in. This all being true, are we to believe that Mr. Coolidge would deliberately cast aside what he certainly holds—the Negro vote—to gamble with such an uncertainty?
If, as you have stated, Mr. Coolidge was moved by political motives in making Slemp his secretary, I do not believe that these had, anything to do with an expected Presidential nomination. He must know that the very presence of Slemp in the White House is an insult to Negroes, and that this vote is far to him. Perhaps he doesn't know this. If he doesn't, then he has not been in touch, with the affairs of his party in the South. He is not familiar with the pathetic mess stirred up by Mr. Slemp in Virginia several years ago that resulted in a general break of Negroes from Republican ranks and the running of John Mitchell, a Negro, for Governor of the State.
I can searchly believe that Mr. Coolidge does not know that it was his secretary who refused to admit a single Negro to the Republican State convention of that year, and that those who attempted peaceful entry were thrown out and threatened with jail. If Mr. Coolidge really does not know anything about this, he will be acquainted with every detail between now and 1924. Wm. BRIDGES. New York, August.
Negro Hopes in Coolidge
To the Editor of the Tribune, Sir: The Negro problem is as important as any other as a constituent factor of the political equation. No feature of the policy of President Coolidge will be watched, with keener interest than his attitude toward the Negro as an American citizen and also as an essential factor in Republican politics. His declared purpose is to carry out the policies of his predecessor. This declaration will not be assuring or entailing, so far as it affects the Negro
THE TYPE OF NEGRO WHO ACCOMPLISH NOTHING. BUT WHO BATTENS ON THE RACE
Every race has its mental wanderers, says the Pittsburgh American. The Negro race has more than enough.
Mental wanderers are people without any record of good, solid achievements, and service in anything, who have an opinion about everything and everybody. They cannot point to anything worth while done by themselves, but they have a ready opinion about the service others are rendering. Mental wanderers are generally blissfully ignorant of their own shortcomings, but quick to discover and magnify the faults of others. The habit is the result of their lack of experience in religion, education, industry, business and politics.
The mental wandersers are the peats of earth; of every community; of every organization; every movement, and every person or thing with the prospect of doing the slightest good.
race. President Coolidge enterpises in office free from political commitments or ostangling factional obligation. He has authorized no bargaining and is therefore bound by none.
So far as the Negro is concerned, President Coolidge's record is contained on a carte blanche, with only the word "conscience" written at the top. Mr. Coolidge is the only Puritan to occupy the White House for three generations, if indeed, he is not the very first who embodies the full, unadulterated measure of the Puritan spirit and genius. The Adamson, Quimney, Lowells and Cabell, who have dominated New England politics and politics for the last hundred years, have been Unitarian in religion and aristocracy in birth and premonition. Mr. Coolidge is the product of the Confederate nationalist of the geography of New England. The righteouness of the his is his. No one can forgive what he will do in an emergency, but all those in the feeling that he will do right. It was the New England conscience and its homotype, the Quaker sense of right, that had the moral foundation of the Negro's freedom and self-confidence. It is hardly thinkable that a genuine son of New England would prove recept to these traditions. Surely the Negro, like all other interests in the hands of President Coolidge, because his principles are good.
For the last forty years candidate for the Presidency have found it expedient to appease the Negro vote with flattering pre-election promises whose unfulfillment has led to the bitter fruit of disappointment.
The President is not only the head of the government, but the leader of the majority party which is responsible for his elevation. He is committed not only to promote the welfare of the nation, but also the interest of his party. The Negro in a Republican, not only by tradition and conviction, but also by compulsion of circumstances. The managers of the party have been disposed to rely too far upon his unwieldable devotion to its fortunes. He has not received recognition of his just claims from the hands of the grand old party which has commanded his loyalty and his love for two generations.
The continuance of his attachment and devotion in the future will depend upon tangible results rather than traditional considerations. The Presidential campaign of 1824 is rapidly approaching. Devotions of the Republican party believe that it is the best existing instrument to deal with the involved issues of this nation and of the world. The Negro vote is essential to the success of the Republican party. Repeated misfreatment at the hands of his political friends has made the Negro voter sulky and suilen. He must be kept in good humor by meeting his just and reasonable demands. This is required not only by the sound principles of political righteousness, but by political expediency as well.

NATIONALISM IS THE SYMBOL OF RACE EQUALITY
Many writers, black and white, in their analysis of the Negro and his future, have suggested many methods that they "believe would aid, the so-called "race question" and ultimately solve this vexious problem that has annoyed both white and black for years. In all of their expositions, so far as I have been able to glean, not a single writer has come out squarely for Nationalism for the Negro race. Why is this timidity on the part of these writers? Are they afraid to tell the truth? Is not the Negro capable of functioning independently as a race? Must he wait indefinitely to he give a chance to demonstrate his ability as a legislator or administrator? No one can deny the fact that every other race of people who are now functioning as cultured races and administrators were once a novice in the art of government and administration. If where is ever a time when conditions favor the Negro race to serve for nationalism, the time is now. The Negro's knowledge of the governments of the various countries where he domiciles, his education and other innate qualifications, is a wealth of knowledge for his foundation to operate. The experiences of association among the various groups of the human family certainly have given him valuable data that no other race in the entire world can boast of. Hence a background of knowledge and experience to formulate a government of his own that is unsurpassed in the history of the world. Yet with all this knowledge men, even in the Negro race, remain skeptical and even scorn the idea as if it were something not worth while having.
Observe for a moment the keen interest manifested as well as aimed at by the various races with whom the Negro comes in touch. Everyone arriving and hoping for a national home, if he has not one yet. The spirit of independence permeates their soul, because "nationalism" is the symbol of race equality, race achievement and race supremacy. Martin's supreme effort in the universe. A race with its own government and its own country is assured recognition and respect. A hearty welcome by those who share the fruit of independence is assured it, because it has achieved something that they have accomplished. Hence the hand of fellowship as so equal and collaborator. Every Negro should appreciate the efforts of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the center, of a delegation to the League of N° 20 last year to request that body to turn over to the Negro peoples of the world the German colonies in Africa of Togoland, Cameroons and German Last Afta. A such a step is a practical lesson to the world that the Negro is awake to his abstraction and is only seeking an opportunity to demonstrate his fitness to cooperate in the affairs of the world. Attribution with such an organization as the U.N.I.A. means a great deal to the Negro, because it is the link or the stepping stone to unites great and civilized. Look at the political on which it has already placed the Negro race. It has made the entire world stop to give the Negro race due attention, residing probably for the first time there in such a thing as a Negro race on this earth that must be given consideration.
We cannot go very far without a nationalism. Hence the importance of nationalism for the Negro race. It offers the Negro the only chance to exercise the dormant abilities to long pent up by limitations and prejudice for constructive work. Denying him the opportunity is to retard civilization's progress and retarding the progress of a great branch of the human family.
Ministers, teachers and leaders of our race should preach the gospel of "race nationalism" to our people. It means upliftment for Church, State and people alike. Besides, it will arouse pride, hope and happiness for ourselves and for the generations of our children yet unborn. Then can historians write the details of our pioneers of achievement, so that Ethiopia's sons and daughters can lift their heads as proudly and nobly as the sons and daughters of the great Caucasian race are doing today.

HARLEM'S NEEDS DISCUSSED
AT MEETING CALLED BY SMITH
Alderman John W. Smith, 145 West 138th street, who was given the Aldermanic seat from the Twenty-first Assembly District a short time ago, held a meeting the other evening at the Palace of Joy. Seventh avenue and 133th street, at which conditions which would improve this section of the city were discussed.
The purpose of the meeting was to have all the people, organizations and churches of the district discuss their views as to the needs of the section, looking to the improvement and bettering the condition of the streets and for the safeguarding of life and limb.
Some very good suggestions were made to Alderman Smith at the meeting, and he states that he will take them up with the various city department heads in an effort to fulfill his promise to the people.
De Omnibus Rebus
"The film deplates Negroes in a ridiculous and edible light," said Deputy Deputy Goussoune, French Commissioner of the Interior, thereby signing the death warrant as far as France is concerned for David Griffith's motion
picture, "The Birth of a Nation." Although commercial interests are fighting for the right to paddle this infamous place of propaganda to the French public, Boussetet, who in a Nazi deputy, is reported to have the force against, so well lined up, that death is sure. This damnable film, created for no other purpose than that of sowing mischief and discrediting the Negro, was shown in many places here in America, while from several places it was driven out by citizens who had the moral courage to stand up for right. Having created as much mischief in America as public sentiment would permit, it attempts to blow its foul breath on fair France. While we are acquainted with the history of France in her colonial passages and know that her record of cruelty and exploitation is but slightly different from many other countries, not exceeding Belgium, we must admit that it speaks volumes for France when we realize that she stopped "The Birth of a Nation" simply because "it depicts Negroes in a ridiculous and edious light."

Demon Runge
The Negro has been ridiculed and discredited so long as a Race, that the civilized world almost believes him a SEES THE FUNNY Joke. All of the white world seems tickled at the Negro and ready at any moment to break out in a big laugh. Even when he assures them that he is serious, they think he is joking. So cunning and subtle has been their alliant propaganda against the Race, the Race itself has been very much affected by it, not realizing that it has been only a part of the white man's great scheme to materialize white supremacy and world control by making other races feel themselves inferior to the whites. Negroes have seen themselves burlesqued on the stage, on the funny page in the newspapers, on the screen, signboard and in the book an long and with such persistence, that he almost accepts the funny role as his part in this great drama of life. When the average Negro comes in contact with a white man, he thinks that it is his job to be funny. Eveg when some of our most intelligent Negroes speak to white audiences, they fill their apeses with jokes or act the clown themselves. When the average Negro holds conversation with a white man, he can hardly for a moment be serious, but finds himself grinning and laughing, not because either has said anything humorous, but he feels out of place being stern or serious with the white man.
THE time has come when the Negro must stand erect, well poised, keep his hat on his head, his lipa closed tight and looks the blue-eyed Caucasian straight in the eye and talk to him seriously, asking him if he attempts to grin, smile or laugh us off, "what is funny?" The easiest way to destroy man is to destroy the respect and confidence in himself. Likewise you can destroy a race. It is for this purpose that the Negro is oftener depicted in a ridiculous and edious light than any other. The world may see only the funny side of the Negro now, but the day is fast approaching that will turn the sarcastic smile of the world into a hysterical laugh born of desperation.

to meet other challengers because he feels himself entitled to a bout with Dempsey. The attitude of Harry seems to be, "if I can't get this bout with Dempsey, I will meet none of the 'in betweens' which is the wrong attitude. If Wills, thinks Mr. Runyon, had continued taking on everything that challenged him, there would be no doubt about his name being on the dotted line for a fight with the champ now. Runyon, continuing to speak, says, look at Jack Johnson when he was following Tommy Burns all over the world. He turned down nothing, thereby fighting every inch of the way "right jam" up to the title. But Harry Wills, our black idiot, in so many words, says this: "That may be true, Mr. Runyon, but I refuse to take set-ups and bambooze the public. Yes, I could fall everyone of these little fellows as they stick up their heads, but why rob the public of their money with fake fights? When men and women pay their money to see a fight, they want to see an honest-to-goodness fight and not simply see knocked down a human dummy set up before a real fighter, simply for the purpose of drawing crowds and making money. Yes, I know the fight game has been commercialized and I could have made plenty of money by taking these set-ups, but when I fight, I want to fight and if I cannot really fight, I will get fake, for the fight sport should be at least kept honest."
Pretty good expressions coming from a prize fighter. The significant thing about Willa's stand is, that for the first time a prize fighter has stepped on the side of honest sport at the grievance almost of his career. That which makes our hearts swell with pride is—he is a Negro.

There is no need for further wondertment, for Dr. Moton speaks and here is what he says: "I stand today where I have always stood-for a Colored personnel from top to bottom. I could not do otherwise and be true to my people. There has been much said about me in connection with the Veterans' Hospital situation. I have refrained from making a statement because I did not think it necessary under the circumstances." Short, brief, but yet encouraging is this expression of Dr. Moton's. It clears up a multitude of suspicions regarding the doctor which have been harrassing us. Thank you, Doeeter.

THE-NEGRO IN WORLD POLITICS
WITH the departure on Wednesday last of Professor Jean Joseph Adam, of Haiti, for Geneva, Switzerland, to attend the forthcoming meeting of the League of Nations, the Negroes of the world, for the second time in a year, make a grave gesture of impatience to the world. Monsieur Adam goes to Geneva under the auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to influence and learn the verdict of that august assembly on a petition, which was presented last year by the U. N. I. A. delegation of four, in the name of the Negro peoples of the world.
That petition, which was sponsored by a sympathetic member of the League, asked that the ex-German colonies in East Africa be turned over to the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It set forth that Negroes had arrived at a stage in their political development when they were capable of administering their own affairs and sought the opportunity to prove this assertion. The petition was received by the League of Nations Assembly and placed on file to come up for consideration at next month's meeting.
The presence of Professor Adam, a member of the former delegation, will furnish additional evidence to the statesmen assembled at Geneva that the Negro is now alive and alert and will not be content with his present-day billet of world menial. His presence at Geneva cannot but strengthen the spirit of his brethren from Africa and elsewhere, who will be present at Gevena clamoring, as he is, for the things that belong to them. For more than half a century the native African—that same African whom some parricidal Negroes pretend to disdain—has been filled with disgust of the complacency of Negroes who have seen together the crumbs that fall from the lips of the western overlords rather than exploit them in the exploitation of their own rich resources. For more than half a century the Western Negro has been received with greater suspicion and distrust on the part of the native African, when he has set foot on African soil, than has been the case with the national stranger. This attitude within recent years has been undergoing a change, thanks to the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Suspicion and distrust have given way before the incoming tide of fellowship, and Negroes everywhere are forging the bonds of unity.
Professor Adam takes with him to Geneva the good wishes of all right-thinking Negroes. He is eminently fitted for his great task and may be depended upon to acquit himself with credit to his race. The eyes of the world of Negroes are trained on Geneva, as the Negro makes his ominous beg.
Sir Edward Grigg, self-styled "unrepentant Englishman," in a recent splutter of glorification of England's imperialism, likens those who denounce England's imperialistic ideas as unjust and her motives mean to the conscientious objector. "Civilization," he says, "is guided by two economic laws. The first law is that where a native people cannot clear the jungle and develop the talent confided to them in the wealth of their soil, the task shall be undertaken for them by the civilized powers. The second law is that where the jungle has once been cleared away, civilization shall not allow the jungle to return. The principle of self-determination will sweep the world into a new chaos of competition, if these laws are not observed."
It is a waste of time to bandy words with the unrepentant, but it is well that British civilization know this. Negroes for the last three hundred years have sat at the feet of imperialistic, civilized Albion and learned their lesson. They now desire the chance to reflect the credit of the pupil on the teacher. Well equipped from contact with "civilized powers," they seek the opportunity to assist the native people of Africa in clearing the jungle and developing their talent. They feel themselves abundantly fitted for this task and long to do some pioneer work on their own. The jungle is their shame. No glory can come to them from its perpetuation. They feel that the white civilized powers are not doing the clearing fast enough and are presenting their righteous claim for the job. The new Negro is determined that the jungle shall disappear, never to return. He is afire with the principle of self-determination, but is unwilling "to sweep the world into a new chaos." He therefore seeks the accepted path of peace. If or when his peaceful efforts fail, it will be time to prate of world chaos. For with four hundred million Negroes disgruntled, there can be no world peace.
The fateful question is put to the statesmen of the world. What will the answer be?
THE BLUFF THAT FAILED
THE striking success of the Turks at the diplomatic battle at Lausanne is now history. Kemal Pasha, great patriot, soldier and statesman, won all along the line, forcing the skilled and seasoned veterans of European statecraft to give ground at all points. The Mohammedan world is jubilant. Some Christian peoples are inexpressibly shocked and chagrined.
When the Lausanne meeting was in session, deadlocks and heated exchanges and recriminations were rife. Above the din, Curzon, England's hadgerty Foreign Minister, could be heard bidding the Turks to remember they were dealing with Englishmen. Supporting the grand gestures of her spokesman, Great Britain now and again would send her super-dreadnaughts racing to the Levant. The newspaper of London, Paris and New York would have readers believe a tragic conflict, that hinged on Kemal's recalcitrance at Lausanne,
was impending in the Near East. Curzon bluffed and bluffed, and Kemal called and called. And invariably the showdown was embarrassing and expensive to the former.
The justice of the Turks' cause and claims at Lausanne was transparent. But the Turks did not win merely because their claims were just. It was the conviction, which Curzon and his colleagues carried, that the Turks were not afraid, were not too proud to fight, that yielded them the victory. Curzon and the rest knew that the best fighting men in Europe were being led by a man, who was, at least, their equal in wit and courrage, and they feared the consequences of a clash. The "terrible Turk" was on the warpath, and to be valorous was to be discreet.
THE FAITH STANDING

The victory of the Turks at Lausanne should serve as a forceful reminder to the Negro peoples of the world of the value of preparedness and an uncompromising patriotism. The Romans rose to greatness on the crest of a conviction that nothing was more glorious for a Roman than to die pro patria. With this religion the Japauese conquered Russia. The Turk's greatest lament is that a man can die but once for his country. When Negroes everywhere beget this spirit, the day of their liberation from the oppressor's wrong and the proud man's contumely will have arrived.

INDIAN OFFICERS LEAVE
Segregation of Certain Un-
“Black” Distas
W. I note with a great deal of pleasure the interest manifested in the Local Conventions by the branches of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world, and we trust that, as the month of August closes, the confeees will find themselves imbued with even greater zeal to put over the program. These local community conferences cannot but be productive of the greatest good, constituting in themselves a world-wide membership campaign and establishing better feeling among members and non-members, resulting in a closer relationship of our people generally. Invitations were extended to all persons interested in racial uplift, members and non-members. The latter were invited for the express purpose of stating their point of view, so that any antagonism based on a misconception of the real objects of the Association may be removed.
INDIAN OFFICERS DECLINE TO LEAVE BRITISH REGIMENTS
Segregation of Certain Units Breaks Down—Label of "Black" Distasteful to Natives
CALCUTTA. July 15 (Special Correspondence)--Military matters have as usual, coupled much of the time of the session of the Legislative Assembly at Simla. It is well known that the scheme for Indianizing the regular army by selecting or regrouping certain units has broken down because Indian officers serving with other units liking and getting on well with their British brother officers, proud of their regiments, have declined to transfer to regiments labeled as "black." The army authorities instead, however, of admitting their mistake—into which they had as a matter of fact been pushed by the zeal of the politicians,ignant of the soldier's point of view have decided to draft Indian cadet from Sandhurst and Dehra Dun to the eight regiments without giving the officers concerned any option.
An interesting statement made by Mr. Burdon, Secretary of the Army Department; disclosed what action had been taken regarding the resolutions of the Esher Commission, the commission which in 1920 drew up a scheme for the post-war organization of the Indian Army. Indians are eligible for all ranks of the infantry and cavalry, but not for the Royal Engineers, the Royal Artillery or the Royal Air Force, which are exclusively British, and the units of which only serve for a short time in India. Indians are eligible for all the subordinate services such as the Indian Army Service Corps. A certain number of holders of Viceroy's commissions (these have been in existence for a long time, and the holders of the rank are equivalent to senior non-commissioned officers and warrant officers) had been promoted to King's commissions.
Officers are a rule have been selected from those classes contributing most recruits to the Army on the recommendation of the Esher Commission that no less than 25 per cent. of, the King's Commission (these hold precisely the game rank as British officers) should be given to Indian subjects. Mr. Burdion, the secretary of the Army Department stated that it had not yet been practicable to give effect to a higher proportion than ten commissions out of fifty, or 20 per cent.
No final decision has yet been reached regarding a reduction in the number of units as recommended by the Inchcape Committee, though the War Office have agreed that the personnel of British infantry battalions shall be reduced by 130. The Inchcape Committee had in particular recommended that three cavalry regiments should be withdrawn from India; and so the War Office has fairly declined to consider any further reductions in the fighting service of the British Army, some delay has ensued

The latter were invited for the point of view, so that any antagonist the real objects of the Association being discussed simultaneously by no decisions, however, being taken and matters.

COLOR LEGISLATION
"Color legislation is responsible for a condition that does much to lower the standard of sexual morality and the home life of the naughty, says the Los Angeles Earth. "In All the Southern states are laws prohibiting white marrying Negroes and yet every other person you meet has the Caucasian blood in their veins. The record shows, eight out of twelve millions are mutate outs. There is no law in the South to protect the young Negro women, and even the married, against the way of these deplorations of outraged women. She is inferior in the day and onset at night. The only time a Southerner will wake up is when a Negro crosses his fireside and gives him a dose of his own medicine. There are enough Negroes in the South to wipe out, eternally, this stain upon their lives. It cannot be done in running, whining, or fighting single-handed, but by organization, by standing together—man for man—even until death, for rights this government has sworn to give to every citizen, regardless of color, or creed, or conditions of service. If the other races can burn, lynch, and erase the black man for crimes some of them commit upon their own women, then why can't we do a little dying for our own women, and stand pleading, begging and praying for protection against the human ingresses—the debasere of character—these 100 per cent Americans who preach race purity for themselves and race segregation for discrimination and hate for others. If we were together as the white man, peonage, the worst form of chattel slavery, would not exist, we would not have to run away from our farms, our homes and families because we reentreat the wrongs of our oppressors. Let the South make all the laws it wants to keep in our place, let it build, mountains around its firesides to keep us out, but let us too do, some building around our fireside and keep out these vultures of the night who are too proud to be seen in the day with us. Don't be too afraid of dying. You died like sheep to protect the white man—can't you do a little for your own race? You are going to be killed anyway—why not for a principle? Until the South changes its attitude toward the black man; until her laws are written for him as well as his own; until the negro woman is safe in any part of the South and this color prejudice is buried in oblivion, will there be a problem and a growing unrest between the two races."
By HUBERT, J. COX
When the feelings of novelty have passed away, when credulity gives place to inquiry, when reason is supported by faith, the spirit of progress moves toward its goal with the assurance of victory. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Committees League representing the bulwarks of strength, in that they voice the organized sentiment of the Negro peoples in the world under allen direction and the aspirations at home, have, by their uncompromising behavior, stalwart manhood, clean-cut policies, fearless and intrepid courage won thinking men and women's attention everywhere news is read.
The faith that never tires goes on demonstrating a greater knowledge in the cycle of time which will in turn support the succeeding steps in our conscious, intentional, environmental and evolutionary progress. Whether the situation calls on the responsible leadership to clear away the mists that becloud the eyes of anyone pleading lack of knowledge, it will be agreed that more than ordinary publicity has been given to the organizations above mentioned with the historic task and bold program, they sponsor and carry out.
It is for this reason that many people are led away from the ranks; they want the finished article—great patience is required in showing them that they belong in the structures now in development and furthermore they have a duty to perform at the present time giving to the unborn generations of a noble race a place worthy in the minds of all people. Therefore, in this onward and upward march to the heights of individual betterment, racial solidarity and national grandeur, we pause awhile offering to the ree Guard the vision of a purpose that carries us on. We believe that fundamentally we are in accord; it is only practice and methods that there is a difference. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League have by their open conventions, national and international policies opened up the way for a just understanding of all issues affecting the Negro peoples of the world. Must there always be a parallels between the knowledge we have and the action to follow? In the light of a true purpose weighty responsibilities that calls for men and women of capacity?
The faith that never tires points the way, Watchman, what of the night? Here and now decide. With the Infinite mind let us declare that we are in harmony and unity holds us always so. The prophet is in the wilderness—men and women of Ethiopia, listen. The liberation of 400,000,000 Negroes and the continent of Africa have begun in earnest; the darkness clears away giving place today with its light which inspires, brightens and invigorate the minds, hearts and souls of Negroes everywhere.
Rinking down the ages of time, religious liberty, political liberty, economic liberty, national liberty and self-preservation have been won by sacrifice. In addition to courage, determination, will, self-impiration and righteousness of purpose, martyrts to the cause of Negro freedom will calculate for the blood of redemption, resolute, unafraid, unconquerable. The way to our historic home lies across the desert treacherous, selflessness makes, hyperspace, cant, humming and decit. Who is afraid because the journey is set with dangers? If the Negro as he declares, one God, one aim one destiny realizes the dangers then nerves himself and herself for the conflict, we are more than a reclaimed people. Indeed, we are of the spirit and will play the next part in the new spiritual drama of creation. Organization and standing organized are the towers of strength on which your feet must rest, opine to the contrary, notwithstanding. The severity of an enduring inward peace helped by time in its unrelenting eye-match shatters the potty schisms of men in opposition to divine will. The Supreme Archi-t of the Universe, the all-seeing and all-knowing (who holds man in the palm of His hands having heard the cry for ages, now sounding the trumpet—make ready your gifts, let praises fly into the throes of grace for Jehovah will triumph His people are free. When Simon the Cyrane came to the aid of Jesus Christ who fell under the burden of the heavy cross he hore, he was the forerunner of the time when the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord would raise up for Ethiopia and all Africa, a man capable of that sacrifice. The maidens of Africa and stalkart sons of Ethiopia all sojourners in the land of your temporary stay—come forth and declare your faith that never tires.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League in their interpretation of the divine will, says he steadfast, be of great courage, quit yourselves like men. Hold the banner high, onward, upward within the capacity of mortals attain the sublime heights of perfection, hold fast.
An abiding love coupled with unlimited charity and a boundless love now circles Negroes everywhere.
God in His Infinite mercy has raised up unto Ethiopia they who can and must pay the price of redemption.
The faith that never tires knows that capable men of affairs in business, commerce, shipping sciences, industry and government are on the threshold kept in reserve for the proper season.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association and Africa Communities League are the guides that point the way; they live, feel and grow with increasing years. The faith that have made them cannot fade or falter; the faith that have made them will not now or ever exercise the personal angle for preservation; the faith by which they live will never tire so long as there is a world and a single Negro is alive. The faith that never three
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.—Some idea of the kind of man President Cookings is may be gathered from this story told of him when he was not so prominent in the public eye. It appears that he was a patron at a boarding house where infrequently the chef provided hash for those, who did him the honor to put themselves outside of his culinary creations. One morning when Mr. Coolidge sat down to breakfast he discovered a big platter of hash in front of him. Eyeing it somewhat suspiciously and looking around for the house dog, who was not in his accustomed place, he called Maria, the waitress, and asked where the dog was and was (old) that he was in the kitchen. "Bring him in, Maria; let's have a look at him." Maria, brought him in and Mr. Coolidge gave him the "once over," satisfying himself that Fido was really alive and not a part of the dish before him. "All right, Maria, you may take him away," he said. And then, like the cautious man he is said to be, he proceeded to investigate the hash and to partake of some of it for his breakfast with apparent relish.
I find the sentiment for Coolidge for president pretty strong in this section and that the people up this way refer to him affectionately as "Cal," and speak of him as a man who knows how to do things in the way that they ought to be done. He is popular with the plain people, who feel that he is one of them, because he works with his hands and can do good work with his head-piece. "Cal ain't nobody's fool lemme tell you," said one of a group of men I met in a small grocery store here recently who were discussing the probabilities of his election a year hence. "He's got plenty brains and mother wit, and he'll show the 'merican people before a great while that he's the logical successor of Harding. Cal's got the nine points of law in his favor—possession—and inside of a year he'll have the confidence and the support of the people." A new armchair, The Negro voters, those Ive talked with, speak very highly of Mr. Coolidge and seem to feel that he will be the candidate to succeed Mr. Harding, and that by every right he ought to be since the late President was scheduled for renomination and re-election. The party might go farther and fare worse. A New Englander in the presidential chair for four or eight years might not be a bad thing for the country. We have and no man in the White House from New England since Franklin Pierce of New Hampshire, a Democrat, flattened the hair cushion of the presidential chair in 1855. And now that there is a qualified Republican candidate from New England for this high office he ought to be given an opportunity to show what a New England Republican can do with the job:ince a New England Democrat did so little to honor New England.
Well, we are going to have some interesting politics between now and 1924. There are some clever politicians in New England, who will, from now on, match wits with those of the "wild and woolly west," who have been naming Presidents for over 50 years. If New England wants Coolidge in the White House it will come very near to getting him. The colored man is pretty tired of the Ohio idea and would welcome a change just to see what will happen, and nothing worse could happen to him than what has already happened. A great many things are going to happen within the next 20 months, I think, to hearten the Negro and strengthen his faith in political parties, i.e., if Mr. John Calvin Coolidge and his political managers and advisers are not carried away with the idea that the Lilly White Republicanism of the South is necessary to the salvation of the party of Lincoln, Grant and Roosevelt, and the elimination of the Negro as a factor in the equation is a condition precedent to its return to its ancient prestige and power. If these ideas become as popular with the new administration as they seemingly have been with past ones, then the deom of the G. O. P. is sealed and the Coolidge need not go into training to become the elegant successor of Mr. Harding. He won't be.
I attended church in Sonerville on Sunday and after service mingled with people and greeted old friends I met last summer when I was here. They asked about the U. N. I. A. movement and Marcus Garvey's trial. The consensus of opinion among them was that Mr. Garvey had been given a dirty deal at his trial and that the District Attorney's refusal to accept bail for him was the limit of persecution, a thing unheard of in the courts of this State and which would not be tolerated by the people who know their constitutional rights. The U. N. I. A. is making friends here among people hitherto unfriendly toward it, because of the arbitrary attitude and seeming determination of a court officer to crush its life out. I was most agreeably surprised to hear the expressions of sympathy for Mr. Garvey and commendations of his manly attitude voiced by parsons and people.
know the reality of things unseen and believes the spirit of the physic world that exists everlasting from generation to generation. The faith that never tires believes in the Negro and knows that the Negro believes in himself, that, guided by his maker who in his appointed time, has not "declared what we shall be." The faith that never tires welcomes all to the fold. The line forms at every Liberty hall everywhere, and in the hearts of Negroes at all times and at all places. Forward! March!
HUBERT J. COX
clever, calm, careful, calculating incumbent of the White House, it may be interesting to note that coming originally as he does from the State of Vermont where they grow marble he's as hard as nail, and that living in Massachusetts where the sacred cod and the succulent bean have their habitats he knows beans and can scale the heights in the American game of politics. What he has forgotten or doesn't know his friends stand ready to supply. All they require is fair play and no favors for popular "Cal". Coolidge, Deacon Hamlin tells me that he once gave Mr. Coolidge the "Pontifical" blessing. It was before his election as Governor. The blessing was accompanied with a prophecy which, fortunately for the Deacon, came true, and when the twain again met and compared notes there was much rejoicing and some expansive smiling. The Deacon is going to Washington in November to perform another operation on Mr. Coolidge—if they can find each other. The Deacon says Mr. Coolidge is IT.
I haven't had as yet an opportunity to pay my respects to his Excellency, the Mayor of Cambridge, Hon. Edward Quinn, by whose courtesy I was given the freedom of Cambridge last summer and a dinner at Young's Hotel with a half dozen of my friends, after which we were taken in autos to the principal places of interest around Boston and its suburbs. I understand Mr. Quinn is again a candidate for re-election as Mayor and I want to see him win, not only because he has made a good Mayor in previous terms, but because he is an unfinishing friend of the Negroes of Cambridge, who have abiding faith in him because he is on the square. I know him, and I like him, and I want all my friends in Cambridge to support his candidacy by voting him back into office.
U. N. I. A.. KINGSTON. TO TAKE ACTIVE PART IN JAMAICAN POLITICS
U. N. I. A.. KINGSTON. TO TAKE ACTIVE PART IN JAMAICAN POLITICS
On Thursday evening, August 9, at 5:30 the Jamaica Political Reform Club, an organization established under the auspices of the Kingston Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association held its first meeting in Liberty Hall, King Street. The club is the result of certain reproduction decided upon by the August session of the local convention that ways and means be taken to improve the political and industrial condition of the poor people throughout the island.
Filled with the spirit of Garveyism and now conscious of the injustices meted out to them by the overlords, it takes very little to form a club of this kind among Negroes. At the first meeting 54 members were enrolled. The chairman of the evening was Mr S. M. Jones, president of the U. N. I. A. Division 100.
The chairman pointed out that all persons resident in the island of Jamaica can become members of the club. Continuing, he said in part: "We are here constituted as a band of citizens to form this political club, because politicians move a community its good or for evil. Lawns must come from the people, and we as natives ought to know what is best for us in this country, and when we agitate through a strong and well organized club we are more likely to be listened to than when one individual speaks." Several other addresses were given by the members and officers, after which the meeting was brought to a close.

Mr. and Mrs. Wm. A. Sampson, 431 Parker Avenue, open their home to the members of the Dayton Division 214, on Friday evening, August 17, in order that the birthday of our beloved president-general should be celebrated in a fitting way.
At 9 o'clock in the evening the meeting was opened with the singing of the Opening Ode, followed by prayer by Mr. Sampson. The members then marched around the room, which was tastefully decorated and draped from the ceiling to the floor with the red, black and green. In the center of the room was a table on which a large cake with 36 burring candles in honor of Mr. Garvey & 36 years. After a few appropriate remarks by some of the members assembled, the cake was cut and a piece given to every person in the room. A silver offering was also taken up for the Black Cross Nurses and a telegram sent to the President-general in the Tombs prison to encourage our leader in his fight for justice.

U. S. JEWS CONTRIBUTE
$2,750,000 FOR ZION
Approximately $4,300,000 has been raised for the Palestine Foundation Fund (Kerren Hayesod) since its inception two years ago. Of that amount Jews of the United States have given about $2,750,000, or more all other countries together, it was shown in the report of the fund presented at yesterday's session of the World's Zionist Congress here. The fund is being used to further economic and social activities by the Jews in Palestine. Canada ranks next to the United States in the amount contributed, although its Jewish population is only 100,000. Africa is third and 707 land fourth. This is an example we as a race should bear in mind, and a spirit that we must emulate to carry out our program.
Chairman Casper Holstein Lays Foundation With $563.85, Which Represents the Proceeds of a Dance Given June 14 by the Virgin Islands Congressional Council
In keeping with the utilitarian phases of the imposing program of the Virgin Islands Congressional Council, the Virgin Islands Alliance, which is a consolidation of all the Virgin Islands societies in New York, and of which Casper Holstein, president of the Virgin Islands Congressional Council, was chairman, met on Friday, Aug. 10, at the 135th street branch of the New York Public Library and laid the foundation for a Scholarship Fund which will be used to bring deserving boys and girls from the Virgin Islands to the United States to be educated, with the understanding that they return to the Islands and use their training and knowledge toward the ultimate betterment of conditions there. Exactly $663.85 was laid down to start the Fund and by the time this is in print the first candidate to participate of its privileges, Mr. Franklin James, a brilliant young student just graduated from the Christianized Junior High School, will be well on his way to New York in order that he may be here in time to be escorted to Hampton Institute where he will matriculate this fall.
Election of Officers
At the epoch-making meeting Friday night the delegates representing the various Virgin Islands societies met to carry on the work of this great educational program. Mr. Casper Holstein presided. There was also a goodly number of interested visitors, Virgin Islanders and Americans alike. After the meeting was called to order the chairman asked for a word of prayer, which was given by Mrs. Matthews. Mr. Lionel Frazer acted as secretary pro. tem. In his opening remarks the chairman said that we were gathered here to put into effect this great educational program. He said that we were about to make history, in that we are commencing on this night in one of New York's historic buildings—a night that will never die in the annals of American history—the night that our late President was buried. He said that the environment is befitting this historic occasion, and that perhaps in the next ten or twenty years, when many of us will have left the scene of action, those of us who are left behind may look upon this great institution (educational) with reverence and profound pride. He then said that they will go into the regular routine of business and the nomination and election of officers followed. The following officers were elected:
Mr. Alfred Dickerson; chairman; Miss Lisa Edwardi Edwards; vice-chairman; George Jackson, treasurer; Miss Edna Joseph, recording secretary; Patrick Andrew, financial secretary, and Miss Emma Williams, chaplain.
After the election the chairman requested of the newly elected officers whether they would like to thank their colleagues for the honor bestowed on

them. All the newly elected officers then delivered brief addresses of thanks. The chairman in his closing speech spoke as follows:
Chairman Holstein's Speech
"Members of the Educational Committee. Ladies and Gentlemen: I cannot convey to you in words the feeling of joy and satisfaction that I should in presenting to you this evening the sum of $583.85. This money represents the proceeds of the dance given by the Virgin Islands Alliance at Renaissance Casino on June 14, 1923. In presenting this I am profoundly reminiscent as I think of what this Fund is going to mean to our posterity. As I see it, this is a moment that will live in the history of our people. Our posterity will look-back upon it with gratitude, with tears in their eyes; will revere it. will immortalize it as the beginning of a new period in the history of the Negro people of the Virgin Islands. For me it is a moment representative of a great racial ideal.
"In this highly modern, this highly scientific world, the man who is educated and who has character is one of society's greatest assets. This is one of the axioms of progressive science. Character and education make real men. And men moulded through these virtues are the butwarks of civilization. Our younger generation, inculcated with these virtues, character and education, will be able to establish a greater institution for the generations yet unborn. It is with these in mind that this Scholarship Fund is being established. We want to help deserving students of both sexes on the islands to come to America, acquire a mechanical or scientific education and return to the islands to help their less fortunate brothers and sisters. This is one of the logical ways by which conditions in our islands may be bettered.
"The United States Government might, as I hope and pray that it will adopt measures to better conditions economically, politically and officially in the islands, but conditions will never be any better no matter how great our sacrifices may be; until the people themselves learn to be unselfish, learn to help their fallen brethren, learn to minister to those who have been left by the wayside. I feel very keenly on this point, ladies and gentlemen, and I want you to feel likewise.
"Administer This Fund Wisely"
"As a parting word to you, I say administer this Scholarship Fund wisely. There is always the temptation to abuse a trust that has been reposed in you, but hark not to the wiles of the serpent. Choose wisely your candidates after due consideration. We do not want students to come here study at the expense of our Scholarship Fund, and then decide not to return to apply the knowledge and training they got here to better conditions in the islands. No, we do not want that. Those who will benefit by this Fund must live up to its conditions; must partake of it with the idea of ultimately rendering service to their home and people. It is under these conditions and under these conditions only that we can ever hope for a brighter day for our wronged and much maligned people in the Virgin Islands."
"So Easily Misquoted"
Mr. Holstein then requested the members to appropriate funds to defray the expenses of the student Franklin James, who is now awaiting passage to enter Hampton Institute in the early week of September. He could have, he said, taken the expenses from this Fund and send for the candidate, but he did not want to do that; he did not want to go on record as being a dictator in this Educational Committee because, he said, "we always are so easily misquoted." And he felt as though he should go about it with dignity in order that it will be a precedent established for the future guidance of the other members of the Educational Committee. A question was then asked the chairman as to what would the expenses of bringing young James here be. Mr. Holstein replied that he did not think it a good procedure to have any of the candidates come up other than first-class. "Because," Mr. Holstein explained, "if he did—if a candidate came lower than first-class—it would mean that his spirits would down and the ambitions of the candidate would grow less and less." So Mr. Holstein said he thought $100 would suffice. The assemblage was unanimous in its assent. After which the chairman said he would entertain a motion on the matter. Motion was up and it was unanimously carried. The chairman then took $100 and he said he would cable it to Mr. D. Hamilton Jackson of Christiansted, who is the sponsor of the candidate. He also begged the committee for the privilege of taking to Hampton the candidate, at his own expense, in order that he may have time to coach and advise the boy. The meeting was then adjourned in prayer by the newly elected chaplain, Miss Emma Williams.
At the expiration of prayer the chairman thanked everyone who had contributed even their moral support to this great undertaking and said that he saw no reason why we should not go on to bigger and greater things. It was quite an inspiring meeting and one that should live long in the hearts of Virgin Islanders of New York.
CONCLUSION OF SERIES OF ARTICLES ON GARVEYISM
(Continued from page 2)
confidence and money in his legal and believe in the program they think best for themselves and all those agreeing with them. Marcus Garvey endures no hardship; no suffering, no humiliation, and no inconveniences of prison which those believing in him do not share. It is a certainty that any effort to destroy the Universal Negro Improvement association will fall, for the opposition of its enemies has established cohesion among the great majority of the members of that organization and will hold together, thus improving the accusation that Negroes can hold together in nothing.
"By Every Rule of Law and Reason"
Henry Lincoln Johnson—than whom there is no better lawyer in America—says:
"By every rule of law and reason, Marcus Garvey is entitled to ball-pending his appeal to the Circuit Court of Appeals for the reversal of judgment of the district court convicting him.
"The dental of ball to Marcus Garvey was in largest measure produced by the admission of illegal testimony, that is to say, the district attorney produced allegation that Garvey's organization had an arsenal and weapons for offense and that directly or indirectly his sympathizers had engaged in divers threats upon the lives of the trial judge and the district attorney.
"None of this was proved but was allowed to go on.
"Emma Goldman was admitted to ball on a far more serious offense than Garvey's conviction. Big Bill Haywood was admitted to ball and there is no earthly comparison between the thing for which Garvey was convicted and the enormity of the charge against Bill Haywood.
"In my judgment, the dental of ball to Garvey in the circumstances is far more dangerous than all the crimes even charged against Marcus Garvey."
The Supreme Opportunity for U. N. I. A. Enemies
Here is a great opportunity for the organizations which have been fighting Marcus Garvey and U. N. L. A. to prophe their worth, sincerity and value in the service they assert themselves working to render in behalf of Truth, Justice and Liberty. Are they big enough and their platform broad enough to include Marcus Garvey? They have the published statement of one of the ablest lawyers in America, that Marcus Garvey "by every rule of law and reason, is entitled to bail," the words of Henry Lincoln Johnson, who is a match for any lawyer in America—white or black; a man and leader known from one end of the country to the other as fit to wear the mantle; known for his bigness of spirit, his breadth of view and the loyalty with which he has labored for the higher development and advancement of his proule.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is a leader, an appeler and fighter for a rule of Justice; a contender for the triumph of Right according to the interpretation of the meaning of Right;

EFENSE FUND SUBSCRIBERS WHOSE LIBERALITY WE GRATEFULLY ACKNOWLEDGE
THE MARCUS GARVEY APPEAL AND DEFENSE FUND The Expected First Blow Has Been Struck at the Race's Liberty
Everybody Must Subscribe Now to Test Whether the Black Man Can Obtain Justice
As was to be expected, Marcus Garvey has been foined guilty by a curf of white men of using the United States mails to defraud.
a jury of white men or using the United States sham 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 fight 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,
NOTICE
Owing to pressure on our space, we have not been able to acknowledge all subscriptions sent in to the above fund. With a view of catching up with our contributors, we are devolging a page of the paper this week to acknowledgments, and will continue to do so until we get abreast of the lists we have received. We are anxious to see their subscriptions acknowledged, and as the need for funds are pressing, we are adopting this mean of publicly thanking all those who have no readily and cheerfully responded and will see the necessity for continuing their efforts to enable the Defense Committee to carry on the fight until justice is obtained. Correspondents, whose matter does not appear, are also asked to be with us with their contributions will get our earnest attention. EDITOR.

Sin embargo. el acto de Mr.

“universal y la ruina de la Civilizaci6n contempordnea. L
humanidad ha demostrado en todas las épocas en contr
de ese mal, Ja‘responsabilidad por medio de la cual grande
cambios se han operado. ‘Cuando notamos las injusticia
cometidas por Juan en.contra de Pedro, nosotros con poc:
dificultad, vemos la raz6n por la cual éste wiltimo. trata di
,.., vengarse del primero, y asi, al travez de.los acontecimiento:
" “humanos, :podemos observar las causas que originan Ji
-revancha del uno en contra del otro. -
' La Practica de este crimen no concierne solamente a
individuo, sino que afecta del mismo modo a las razas y 2
las naciones. “La historia del-mundo nos enseiia que |:
“ ‘mayor parte de ‘las diferencias entre las razas y entre Ia:
naciones, han sido causadas por la infliccién de injusticis
+ de Ja una para con la otra. En-la vida familiar, el hije
ha de vengar la injuria ocacionada al padre por el vecine
y tal presentimiento pasa de generacién en generaci6n
En la vida’ nacional, el pais libre se vengara de las injus.
ticias con ¢! cometidas, tan pronto“se halle en disposiciér
de hacerlo, como én el caso reciente de Francia vengandose
de las injusticias-cometidas por Alemania en la guerra
) del 1870. oe
Aquellos: que anhelan Ja paz universal y. la solucién
permanente de todas las controversias humanas, debieran
perseguir éstas no por medio de conferencias econgmicas
¥ politicas, sino por medio del establecimiento y prdctica
de la verdadera justicia; no-la justicia basada en Ja simpatia
6 antipatia hacia el individuo, hacia la raza 6 hacia la
nacién. Han sido muy pocos los pucblos que han inter-
pretado el significado de lo que justicia determina. Si
ellos realmente sintieran el modo como administran jus-
ticia’ a los demas, se sorprenderfan al realizar cuan cerca
se aproximan a Ja ruina en Ja exhthicion de sus virtudes
supuestas. ,
El planeta que habitamos esta rodeado de una atmos-
fera de’ maldad e injusticia, cuya continuacién de dicha
prdctica transformara la vida de Ia actual civilizacién en
un algo inesplicable. Iremos del monarquismo, republica-
nismo, sovictismo a quien sabe donde, todos estos cambios
en: persecucién de justicia; pero, apesar de que el mundo
cambia sis sistemas social y politico con el objeto de hallar
en ellos Ja justicia humana, nos encontramos aun a gran
distancia de dicho ideal.
Si tomamos como ejemplo Jog sistemas social y politico
de Inglaterra,.encontramos su pueblo dividido en diferentes
clases, unos luchando en contra de Jos otros hajo la im-
presion de que el crimen de la injusticia cs practicado
sobre ellos; lo mismo acontece en muchas otras nacianes.
Mientras observamos las luchas ‘de injusticia entre las
clases, éstas tambien se operan entrelas razas. No pqdemos |
discutir que Jas injusticia de cualquier raza para con los.
‘japoneses Jes haga vengativos; la misma injusticia puesta |
en practica sobre el indi 6 sobre cl Negro, les induciré }
a crear una unién de espiritu, que pueda desarrollarse en|
una nueva civilizaci6n y en un nuevo ideal. ~
Comd raza, ninguna otra ha sufrido por la infliccién
de injusticia como Ja nuestra. . Ha-sido puesta en practica
sobre nosotros politica, social, industrial, educativa, comer- |
cial, judicial y hasta religiosamente. Por mas de trescientos |
afios hemos puesto el grito en el cielo en contra del crimen.
de Ja injusticia, sin haber obtenido aun remedio para ello. |
Generalmente en el orden de cosas el déhil es siempre}
victina del fuerte; el fuerte es injusto con el débil y’ del:
mismo modo la raza 6 nacién’ fuerte oprime a Jos menos!
afortunados. : = !
Tal parece que la solucién de tal situacién depende |
principalmente del desarrollo en potencia -del individuo,!
de la raza 6 de la nacién. Es)la compenetracién de todo}

However. the nisst tHlumihatins part
of the.report has to do with the finan-
cin] statements of the association and
the “Crisis.” Nowhere In tie report
do we find the number of members
the ansoclation-has, but, a comparative
report of 1921 and 1922 shows a de-
cline, The amount received in 1921
from memberships was $40,582.45,

‘We notice on both of the reports and

“Crista” the printers’ unton label No. 171
and No. 2% It is a known fact that
there are no Nagro local unions amone
the printing: <fraterntty;” therefore: the
conclusion 1s ‘thar this expenditure of
more than $20,000 by this: association
with the name of "Advancemeng for
Colored People” apende thie enormous
amount for printing @ith the other fél-
Iw. This $20,000 would be quite &
actor in the economic “Advancement

efation clamor for the “Advancement of

take more {nxn $20,000 from thesd sams
colored people and turn dt, over to en-
terprixes. where Negroex are not em-

have found cheaper and-mosa unobtri-
sive quarters, buf it seems to us that
loo long the black folk of the world
hava hidden tn the bxck alleys of the
earth.” we find that the association and
the “Crinis" paid ont for rent the amount
of $4.249.06—now they have moved tato
more expensive quarters! That 1s furt
where the association lacks racial con-
cclousness. The men who run the asso-
ciation are evidently an anxious te ax:

Awake! fas sung by. the whole house
whilst the collection wae taken up.”
The: speaker in convention, before
Introducing the first speaker, gave «|
brief review of the entire convention,
naaking thi: members Yor their exost-
jent conduct, together with, the. been

given the many qubettons ae they came
before them. He alse spoke of ls tray-
oe fe Africa anf certain putts of De-
faind'the morals of the Africans ar6:8

‘sal@ ‘that be believes that we are 1
victim. of tie’ white man's ctviltzatior
[im that we do mot possess that brother:
ly léve as exists améng the native
tribes, in. the .Mgtireriand.
Misa Mathilda Parson was then in-
tFodueed ae; the first speaker of the
évening. Teking as her ‘aubdject, "The
Birth of “Marcus Garvey.” she: salc
many. things brimful of inspiration.
among them: “Little did hfs parents
think at his Incarnation that that, son
‘was to take the’stand among the great-
eat leaders and lead this noble race of
‘ours. “Money ‘to, him is a mere trifte.
for .his ideals’ aretoo great. and, re-
signed to'fate. he invstill courageous
and expects every Negro to dot, his
duty, He has impressed us greaily by
having the ‘spirit of hin convictions,
backed by an indomitable will. and as
unity ‘had brought the white race to
ite present Atanding. 26 can ours be
brought. by unity” Her conclusion
\was a strong plea for unity. Sin James
O'Meally was next introduced, He rose
amid rousing cheers and gave ® very
inspiring address. He said among other
things that “Garvey in greqt because
he contributed something to humanity
which will live long after he has passed
Aw9v, ant in spite of prosecution the
flames that ha has kindled into the
hearts of Negroes can never dle.”
Speaking of Christianity, he sald:
“The principles of Christianity are tno
high to be practicul. White mien do
not practice them, but they expect us
to’ practice them.”
Self-appointed Negro leaders would
be satisfied if the Négto problem could
be solved by social equality. But some
of them are so very dumb that it re-
quires neveral volts of electricity to
driv power into’ them, Hence the
electrifying beginning of the program
of the U.N. TA
Continuing he said: “Garvey, a mas-
ter ot'mars paycholory. sawe the pos-
sibifties of the Negro and started out
to awaken him. Garvey also realized
that physteally the Negro Is strong, but
Ineking moral. courage, He differs
from Moten and other so-called lead
orsin that while they mavocate a ering:
ing, begging policy. he (Garvey) con-
tends that the Negro Is a man; theres
fora he should meet every man, give
him A square deal and demand’ his.”
The speaker also sid that "the majority:
of ou present Reneration think white,
MMAit needa a tremendous amount of
will power to have them think black.”
NT. A. the speaker ssid that even in’
London. the capital of the British, Em:
pire, the U.N. TA. has unfurled sts
flag as a challenge to “white suprem-
acy." The white people of the world
are shaking in thelr shoes, as they fear
) confederation of Afriran tribes: hence
members of tribes sand relatives wern
separated to break our tribal atrengtb.
In conclusion he made a strong plea
fr nity, after which? he recited the
following poem: ‘ 3
