The Negro World

A Newspaper Devoted Suffly to the Interests of the Negro Race L. XV. No. 6 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1923 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GREEK CENTS SEVEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U.S. TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN CENTS NEGROES DRIVEN FROM INDUSTRIAL CENTRES - PLAN OF THE FUTURE Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: A few days ago the Mayor of Johnstown, Pa., United States of America, gave an order to drive several thousand Negroes out of town. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People immediately sent their usual $2 telegram protest, and the Mayor answered in the following terms: "I don't care what authority I have; for their own safety and for the safety of the Johnstown public, the Negroes are going out of this city. Most of them are out now, and the rest of them are going fast. "If the rest of them don't get out soon, I will arm the police and send them into the colonies to walk the Negroes out of town at the point of a gun." Industrial Rivalry Johnstown is an industrial center, and it is reported that within the last couple of months there has been a great deal of unemployment among the white workers, leaving the town overrun with unemployed whites and Negroes, as well as employed Negroes. The unemployed whites were waiting for an opportunity to run the employed and unemployed Negroes out of town, so as to brighten their prospects for employment. The opportunity presented itself when two policemen were shot in one of the labor districts of the city. It is apparent that the white labor leaders seized upon the opportunity of getting the Mayor to take immediate action, which he did not fail to do. The result was that the thousands of Negroes were driven out of town by the Mayor with the above declaration as his ultimatum which This, we hope, will fully satisfy the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that they are indulging in a "wild goose chase" in trying to correct American white prejudice against Negroes. Unemployment Among the Masses What has happened in Johnstown, Pa., has happened in East St. Louis, Tulsa and in many other industrial sections of the country already, and will happen in hundreds of instances again, and more so as the reaction sets in in the American labor market. As soon as the country returns to normal, and as soon as employment for the working classes becomes more remote, we will be having not only the Mayor of Johnstown but hundreds of other Mayors all over the United States of America making similar declarations. How the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People fails to see this is hard to imagine, if we are to believe that intelligence leads the association. The Solution of the Program The Universal Negro Improvement Association has but one solution for this great problem, and that is to work unceasingly for the bringing about of a National Homeland for Negroes in Africa, so that when this wholesale declaration against Negroes takes place we can have a National Home of our own to look to. The Hand of Prejudice We once stated that when the time comes for the white mob to show its prejudice against the Negro no law, constitutional or otherwise, or no Presidential edict will save our race from the fury of the crowd that is bent upon crushing us as competitors in the industrial activities of the nation. Pushing Forward a Program Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association all over the country will now make up their minds the more to push forward our program so that the time for its realization and accomplishment will be hastened. We would like to be in a position to start real nation building for the Negro in a short while, but this can only be done when we have succeeded in bringing together sufficient Negroes who are determined to stand behind the idea. If we can get eight or ten million out of the fifteen million Negroes in UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION WARNS RACE OF DANGER WICKED NEGRO LEADERS TRY TO MISREPRESENT UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION AND EMBARRASS LIBERIA A RACE THAT DOES HARM TO ITSEL. TIME FOR MASSES TO FORCE HANDS OF HYPOCRITES AND MAKE THEM KEEP QUIET OR STOP DOING HARM TO THE RACE the United States, and the millions of other Negroes in other parts of the world, to stand behind us, there is absolutely no reason why we cannot get the American Government, along with the governments of Europe, to acquiesce in the demand of creating for the Negro an independent nation in to be driven from pillar to post at the whim and caprice of any Governor or official of white governments or communities. Self-Preservation It can plainly be seen that in the question of self-preservation and self-interest the whites nowhere, whether in America, England or France, are going to give way to the Negro to the detriment of their own. We need not look for constitutional protection, or even for philanthropic Christian sympathy, because if that is to be shown it will be to the race that is able to bestow it. Blocking Our Own Progress While we find ourselves overburdened with the prejudice of other races, we ourselves as a people seem to do everything to block our own progress and endeavors. The Universal Negro Improvement Association some two and a half years ago made an effort to assist in the industrial and educational development of Liberia. With the very best of intentions, the association declared its program and went so far as to have sent out to Liberia pioneers, and succeeded in getting the organization itself chartered in that country for its development. We had not gone far in this direction when W. E. B. Du Bois, the editor of The Crisis, made efforts to misrepresent us to the white public in stating that we were endeavoring to build up an organization to use Liberia as a military political base against the white governments of Europe and Africa. To strengthen his effort to destroy us, he voluntarily wrote to the Acting Secretary of State of Liberia suggesting the motives that he (Du Bois) had in mind against the Universal Negro Improvement Association, so that that official could openly denounce the organization, as would be natural for the self-protection of the Liberian Government. Now, after Du Bois did his harm in proclaiming to the white world this misrepresentation of the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we find the editor of the Afro-American, one Murphy of Baltimore, resorting to the same method; and yet, again, we have a press agency in Chicago writing to President King, asking him to make a declaration as against the imaginary military designs of the Universal Negro Improvement Association against white governments. This goes to show how spiteful and FIRST EDITION GOING FAST THE BOOK AND OPINIONS OF M SEND FOR YOUR COPY NOW Address Book Dept., U. N. I. A., 56 West 135th St., or M wicked and malicious Negroes are to themselves, and how obstructive they are to their own progress. Driven About While the prejudiced whites are driving us out of industrial centers in America and suppressing us in all parts of the world, and depriving us of our rights, Negroes among themselves are working to dispel every legitimate effort on the part of their own race for the securing of protection whereby we can live in peace and happiness among ourselves. Corrupt and Despised People As the world can see it, we are the most corrupt (and may I not say despised?) people in the world, in that we work without harmony and unity among ourselves. We hate each other; we do everything to block the progress of each other. We are just living devils among ourselves. At this point I desire to draw the attention of all of the race in the insincerity of leadership among us, because these fellows who have done so much harm in trying to misrepresent the Universal Negro Improvement Association to the white world so as to prevent us from accomplishing its aims and objects in the founding and making of a nation or nations for the proper government of the race are known to us as race leaders; Du Bois claims to be a race leader; Murphy of the Afro-American claims to be a leader in his community, and yet these leaders will resort to such methods that they know well do not tend to proper and conscientious race leadership. Liberia a Great Country Among what race will you find any group of men so ready and willing to expose any honest effort on the part of their own to others, especial when to do so would mean a detriment to the efforts of progress? We have reached the state where we must clean our racial house and displace this kind of hypocritical leadership that has ruined us in the past and will surely ruin us in the future. The whole world knows that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has no designs about any government in the world; that, as far as Liberia is concerned, our one and only interest is to see the country developed to the point of real national independence. We would like to see Liberia become one of the great first-rate governments of the world. We would like to see Liberia a progressive country of blacks. We would like to see a great commercial and industrial Liberia, and knowing what we can do in this direction we are glad of doing it without any motives; yet, just for the purpose of spite, other race leaders in America would try to prevent us from doing this good for the little black republic to the extent that they would not even stop vilifying us and placing the republic in an unfavorable position among the other nations of the world. The Mischief of Du Bois What could Du Bois hope to gain by making such wicked statements about the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Liberia when he knew that England and France had designs on Liberia? What could the others hope to gain by doing the same thing, but placing both Liberia and the Universal Negro Improvement Association in embarrassing positions, yet these men call themselves race leaders. May God save us from such leadership much longer. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. New York City, September 16, 1923. P. S. - I write to ask all members, divisions, chapters and branches of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to make extraordinary efforts in financially helping the Parent Body by pushing ahead with its program of 1923-1924. If each and every division and chapter will keep up with its constitutional obligations, there is no reason why the Parent Body will not be in a financial position to meet its demands and carry out the program set before it. THE LOVE AND DEVOTION OF A RACE IS POURED OUT FOR ITS INDOMITABLE LEAD M. CARTER, IN AN EARNEST, ELOQUENT TRIBUTE, VOICES THE EXPRESSION OF THE DIVISION TO ITS BELOVED LEADER In Jail, Out of Jail, First, Last, and All the Time, Marcus Garvey Holds First Place in the Esteem and Affection of His People, Not Only in This Country, but in Every Part of the World Where a Negro Lives Among the distinguished guests on the platform were His Lordship Bishop McGuire and his chaplain, the Rev. Fred A. Toote, Rev. E. McKegory Mr. D. A. Tobias, Hon. R. H. Tobbit, all the officers of the executive council, and the ladies of the Royal Court. Offerings of garlands of flowers to the President-General and Mrs. Garvey were placed on the dais from Messrs. C. W. and G. A. Watson, little Bernice Linton, Mr. and Mrs. Eunston Matthews and the Ladies of the Royal Court of Ethiopia. The meeting opened with the recital of the association's motto: "One God, One Alm, One Dentinly." "God Bless Our President," was sung with devotional rapture, the voices of the vast multitude swelling out in one grand paen of praise. The band under Prof. Arnold Ford, the capable talented musical director of the organization, played the overture, "Home Circle," and her William Sberrill in a few well-known works called on the Nov. D. E. Carter, as Vice President of the New York local, to make the address of welcome to the great leader. ADDRESS OF WELCOME Mr. Carter, who was received with applause, said: "This is indeed a very joyous moment for us all. Humanity is benemined in by so many influences, until it is difficult to stem the tide of human existence without incurring the displeasure of the stronger group or even the individual, who may find his scilish motives thwarted. The tide of human existence must eventually in the interest of all under the powerful influences of truth. Hence it may be expected in the course of human affairs to find great leaders, appearing only at great intervals. "Once in the life of a nation, race, or people, a Christ is born; once in 10,000 years a moral and spiritual genius is born, such as the Apostle Paul; once in a thousand years is a sincerely, absolutely fearless and determined leader of a whole people born. Such a leader came to us in the person of the Hon. Marcus Carvey, who so demonstrated his loyalty of purpose, until he found himself imprisoned for the cause and people he leaved." The Past and the Present "Some one said, 'The past is contended in the present,' but I want to say it is more than this. The past lives in the present and can be read as accurately as if the observer had been present at the time of its original existence. The past of less than three months has grown to such gigantic proportions, until in the return of our honored guest we are able to present him an improved whole, which he committed, to our care and keeping. Say Bayer and insist! BAYER Genuine Unless you see the name "Bayer" on package or on tablets you are not getting the desired dose. Be sure covered by physicians over twenty-two years and provided safe by militants for "As we pause to question the causes for this improvement, we are compelled to admit that it comes because of the seed-planting in the past. He laboured so well and ardently while he was present with us, until the fruition of his labors had to produce an improved article. An ennations proceeding from magnets, crystals and human bodies are not only seen by sensitive, but felt by them; so the influences proceeding from His Excellency can in like manner be felt by every new Negro, not alone in New York City, but throughout the world. (Applause). The Philosophy of Growth "The spirit of Garvey lives with greater freedom in the present, because in the past his real mission could not be understood by the scientific minds. For you must know that science can never deal with what the senses do not recognize. Bence's is, however, compelled directly or indirectly to acknowledge the existence of a spirit not only in man, but in all organic life. What is it in the oak that determines what it shall draw from the soil by its million mouths? What determines the shape that its leaf and blossom shall assume, and what shall be its fruit? Nothing that the senses can perceive. Is it not a spirit possessed by the scorn that permeates it, watches over it, determines the law of its growth and character of the tree it produces? "So the spirit of the U. N. L. A., born in the brain of Marus Garvey, nurtured and cultivated by his fertile resources of thought and power, sent its influence throughout the world, and black men everywhere have been born uneven, have caught on fire. (Applause). Their beings have emanated their power, until in every walk of life you find an awakened and determined black folk, whose courage will not down, whose spirit will not be broken, until Africa is redeemed and Marus Garvey's dream has come true. (Uproarious applause)." First in Affections "But we welcome you here tonight first, because you hold first place in our esteem and affection as President (general of the U. N. L. A. and as our dearly beloved President of the New York Local. In jail, out of jail, first, last and all the while, our one and only President. (Prolonged applause). We welcome you because your leadership has been of such a nature as to inspire greater heights by those who follow, for without this kind of leadership we cannot go very far. Think on the lines of Ella Wheeler Wilcox, when she wrote: "I hold it the duty of one who is gifted, and specially dowered in all men's sight. To know no rest till his life is lifted fully up to his great gift's height. He must mould the man into rare completeness, for gema are set only in gold refined. He must fashion his thoughts into perfect sweetness and cast out folly and pride from his mind. Great gifts should be worn like a crown beating. And not like gems in a beggar's hands. "We have learned in your absence that many aspire to your heights; but only few can appreciably attain even unto the outer edges of your vision. We welcome you back to further inordinate the principles, until young men who follow in your wake shall know that the true sign of real greatness is not in seeming, but in being. That it comes not forth seeking to advance on the rules of its follow; but rather it enters in and possesses with might and main the task set before it, and ceases to labor, only when it has accomplished. We welcome you back because each unit has patiently awaited your coming, and, as they wailed, all evidences of their loyalty were expressed in their willingness to serve your greatest wish. We welcome you back because all Liberty Two Officers of the Organization Are Rewarded for Meritorious Services At the welcome meeting to the President-General of the U. N. I. A., on Thursday night, occasion was taken to announce the conferring of the distinguished honor of K. C. C. A. R. on two deserving officers of the U. N. I. A. for meritorious services rendered the organization. Both men, angled out for distinction, are Negroes who are a credit to their race, and men who have gained distinction in their respective spheres of life. Sir James O'Meally, as High Commissioner, read out the patents, conferring and appointing the two officers the Supreme Deputy had, under the Constitution, knighted. It was right and meet, said the High Commissioner, to recognize and reward those who had rendered unselfish and distinguished service to the Negro race, and he looked forward to the day when they would be able to confer those titles in the motherland. He then read the Proclamation of the Supreme Deputy, Hon. G. O. Marke, conferring the order of Knight's Commander of the Cross of African Redemption on Mr. Atonzo Pettiford, Counselor-at-Law, President of the Detroit Division, and Mr. Levi Lord, Executive Secretary of the Detroit Division. Hall, which mourned your going, caught the spirit of your indomitable courage and said we will carry on as you wished; because the enemy cannot imprison your spirit, though they may hold your body. (Loud applause). "We welcome you in the spirit in which you left us, accentuated by greater power and force of being than ever before; and us the spirit originally in the acorn urges it on, through blustering, winter and balmy summer, to its eventuation in the sapling, the tree, the forest monarch; so your spirit shall ever urge us on, trials distressing and tormenting, storms blasting and withering, until a new Liberty Hall shall greet you and an increased membership, shall come to swell our numbers; until we shall realize our cherished dreams in a free and redeemed Africa. (Loud and prolonged applause.) Therefore, let us sing loud and strong: "I know as my life grows older and mine eyes have clearer sight—That under each rank wrong somewhere There lies the root of Right; That each sorrow has its purpose. By the sorrowing oft unmessed; But as sure as the sun brings morning Whatever is—is best. I know that each sinful action, As sure as the light brings shade; Is somewhere, some time punished. Though the hour be long delayed. I know that the soul is aided Sometimes by the heart's interest. And to grow means often to suffer But whatever is—is best. I know there are no errors. In the great Eternal plan; And all things work together. For the final good of man. And I know when my soul speaks onward In its grand Eternal quest. I shall say as I look back earthward Whatever is—is best." (Pro- longed applause). SIR R. L. POSTON SPEAKS Sir Robert L. Peston, secretary-general, was the next speaker. He said: "To-night I am really too full for utterance. I am glad to be alive in a time like this. I am glad that I have the opportunity to feel the thrill of entering this building to night and beholding this sea of faces. I could not make a speech to-night, if I wanted to, because I am just waiting to hear one word from the lips of the man whose suffering has given us so much courage and so much inspiration. "This is a wonderful time, a great time for the entire race ofours, and this occasion shall go down in history as marking another step toward our goal as a race of people seeking abo- Our daily prayers to God on high have been answered! And to Him we show our heads in acknowledgment, for He in the Father of all men and the Guilding, Spirit of the universe, so, let us shout: 'Glory, Glory, Hallelujah. (Signed) Universal African Royal Guard The announcement was received with a splendid ovation, and the President-General called for three cheers for the Supreme Deputy, which was right royally responded to, Mr. Marke bowing his acknowledgment. "PROCLAMATION TO THE NEGRO PEOPLES OF THE WORLD "By the power vested in me through the constitution, as Supreme Deputy Potentate of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, I hereby order and confdr upon Alonzo Pettiford, President of the Detroit Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and Levi Lord, Executive Secretary of said division, singly and separately, the title of Knight Commander of the Cross of African Redemption, as a mark of appreciation for exemplary service rendered to the Negro race. "All Negroes, by their sacred vow of loyalty to the cause Afric, shall honor these noble knights for the honor bestowed upon them. "Given with my authority this 13th day of September, 1923. lute freedom and absolute liberty. I have had some wonderful experiences since the incarceration of our President-General. But there is one thing that I shall never forget. Mr. Shegrill after one or two visits we had made to the Tombs, said to me, 'Why, Boston, we have gone there to carry cheer to the President-General, but he has always given us more cheer to bring away than we carried to blim' (Anplause). "Now I Know" "Such is the man who has given us courage to face the enemy; such is the man who has given us power to carry an opponent each terrifying. Since the President-General's incarceration, as one of the committee of management: I have had a little experience, just a little, of course, of what this great man has to hear. And, though the weight has fallen on the shoulders of three of us, I feel and I know now just what it is this man has to hear daily, and I am in a better position than ever before to sympathize with him and to work with him toward the realization of the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Heur: Heart) "There is no question about the Negroes throughout the world carrying on. It has been my great pleasure to visit several divisions since the inocercation of our President-General. Not only are the old members, who were once different, coming back into line, but even those on the outside who criticized the program, who fought against us, are lining up behind the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association as never before. (Applause.) Give us two more years and we will not only carry America, but we will be able to unite all the world behind the program of African reemption. An Invisible Power "The light has been hard, but there has been an invisible power behind us. Had it not been for that power and the people, we would not tonight be able to look upon the man we love so well. All of the forces of evil were at work to keep, behind the bars and to keep him away from us, but his spirit has prevailed over all and his spirit shall march on until four hundred million Negroes are united in one strong band and Africa, our motherland, shall be redeemed. (Applause.) "I know you don't want to hear me speak tonight (laughter) and I could not speak if I wanted to. But, friends, I repeat this is a wonderful and a glorious occasion—and I am thankful for the little part that I have had to play in it. My parting words to you are to hold on a little longer. Has not this demonstrated to you just what we can do through unity? Has it not shown us that if we just hold on a little longer our enemies will not dare stand in our way? "Hardfought and long the fight may be. Though powers of wrong be slow to yield. But right shall win the victory. And freedom hold the battlefield." Chairman's Reiliant Address Chairman's Brilliant Address Sir William L. S. Sherill, chairman, was the next speaker. He said: "Our hearts tonight are happy. Our souls are on fire. Words are inadequate to touch our feelings. This is the moment we have looked for for a long time. And when I say a long time, three months has been a long time. If the English language had ten million additional words and we had them all at our command, if we had the eloquence of a Webster and could speak with the tongues of angels, we would still be unable to express the feelings and emotions which are coming, and going in our breasts as we sit in this hall tonight, and look upon the face of that damnation leader who dared the very brave of the preacher, who giv NEGROES SHOW THEIR SYMPATHY FOR THE JAPANESE $500 Is Subscribed by the Members of the U. N. I. A. to Give Aid to the Sufferers In last week's Negro World we expressed the sincere sympathy of the Negro peoples of the world with the Japanese nation in the dire calamity that has overtaken them. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has always been found ready and willing to do its share not only in expressing sympathy when sympathy is called for but to show in a practical way that sympathy. And so on Thursday night at Liberty Hall, when thousands of members of the race came out to do honor to their distinguished head, the chairman of the meeting, Sir W. L. Sherrill, took the opportunity of making an appeal for subscriptions to aid the Japanese relief fund. "At this time," he said, "the press is full of the suffering of thousands of persons in Japan who have been the victims of a terrible earthquake. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are in hearty sympathy with suffering peoples, anywhere, it matters not from what cause they are suffering, being a suffering people ourselves. Our sympathy, our money, our time and energy must be devoted to help and aid peoples of all kinds, races and nations who happen to be the victims of any kind of suffering. In view of this fact the President-General has sent a telegram to the Emperor of Japan, expressing our sympathy. I will read to you the telegram sent by the President-General, after which I shall read the answer from the Emperor of Japan. Message to Japan "Cable to the Emperor of Japan, sent on the 5th day of September; "Emperor of Japan, Imperial Palace, Tokyo, Japan; Imperial Palace, Tokyo, Japan: "Please accept the deep sorrow and sympathy of the four hundred million Negroes of the world and the Universal Negro Improvement Association over the catastrophe that has befallen your empire.

The collection was then taken, the chairman announcing that the amount subscribed would be supplemented by the Parent Body so as to make up $500 and which amount was wired the following morning to Japan. fered for our children, who suffered for poverty, who suffered for our race, that the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association might go on until Africa stands free and redeemed. When Words Fail "This is an occasion which seems to defy all utterance, of human speech. This is an occasion that cannot be expressed in introductory remarks or in welcome addresses. The only true, the only adequate expression of the feelings which the coming of the President-General in our midst has created would be the waving of fingers, the booming of cannonns, the shouting of voices, the ringing of hells and the throbbing of hearts. If we were in our African republic tonight, we would give—— (A tumultuous outburst of applause and cheering halted the speaker for a full minute.) If we were in our African republic, we would give him a welcome that would be beating such a courageous character. The Red, Black and Green would be flying at topmast. Our aeroplanes would be humming overhead. (Applause.) The beils of our cathedrals would be ringing. Our African dreadmoughts would be spitting fire. (Applause.) Submarines would be dipping and dashing. Black legions would be standing at attention, while four hundred million Negroes the world over would sing. MARGUS GARVEY, IN HIS FORCEFUL, VIVID STYLE, ROUSES THE WARM ENTHUSIASM OF THOUSANDS WHO CAME TO HEAR HIM Expresses His Belief That the Higher Courts of the Country Will Not Allow Prejudice to Stand in the Way of Justice and Condemn a Man Because He Is Black and Attempts to Do Good for His Race On Thursday night, September 13, a scene was enacted at Liberty Hall, New York, which will long live in the memories of those who witnessed it. It was the occasion of the first public appearance of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, President, General of the U. N. L. A., since his release from the Tombs prison. New York, three days before, on ball. As early as 6 o'clock crowds thronged around the entrances to Liberty Hall seeking admission, and at 8 o'clock, half an hour before the meeting was timed to begin, every seat was filled and later comers had to be content with standing room. As Mr. Garvey, with his wife, entered the building at 8:30 a.m. clock, the audience of six thousand, persons rose to their feet, climbed on chairs and from every point of vantage roared their welcome. The demonstration lasted for fully ten minutes, the cheering only subsiding when the band struck up "O Africa Awaken," the signal that the procession of the executive officers of the U. N. I. A. and the various units of the New York local was about to begin. The great leader did not take his accustomed place in the procession, fears being entertained that the enthusiasm of the assembly might break all restraint and cause the procession to develop into an orgy of illizing, to the personal discomfort of the man whom the people had thronged Liberty Hall to see. So when the executive officers had taken their seats on the platform and the units were going through their exercises, Mr. Garvey, accompanied by his wife, made for the platform. But the vast assembly was on the lookout. No sooner did he come into view than the greatest ovation was launched that can possibly be imagined. Men and women cheered and laughed and screamed and hurnahed and shouted and stamped and cried out their welcome. Bowing as he smiled his thanks, Mr. Garvey took his seat beside Sir William I. Sher Assistant President General, chairman of the reciting, and His Highness, the Supreme Deputy, Hon. G. O. Marke. It was another ten minutes before, order was restored and the proceedings could begin. But the acme of enthusiasm was reached later in the evening when Sir William L. Sherrill invited the guest of the evening to speak, and Mr. Garvey rose and came to the front of the platform. As the lights shone full on his face, revealing him hearty and well, a smiling, familiar figure, smartly uniformed, enthusiasm went wild. The house cheered in sections for fifteen minutes, while the recipient of the tremendous ovation stood slightly embarrassed, handkerchief seeking his mouth now and again in characteristic gesture, smiling and bowing and acknowledging his thanks with movements of his right hand. As soon as he would prepare to speak, the applause would grow even more deafening, and, finally, executive officers were forced to come forward and appear to the assembly to have quiet restored.

But we have not reached that yet. We are just on our way. And we are hoping, since we have not got the things at our disposal with which to give this ovation and welcome, that he will understand by the clipping of hands, the shouting and screaming of our voices, we are glad to have him back again in Liberty Hall. (Loud applause.) What the Enemy Discovered "We love him. We love him. We love Marcus (Garvey tonight) as we never loved him before. (Cheers). We love him because he has had the courage to stand against impregnable odds for the cause of his race. We love him because he has been willing to suffer and sacrifice in order that the cause may be held up. We love him because of his courage, because he is not afraid to do and dare where a race is involved. He has stood up for us amid many criticisms. He has stood buffalo hera thinking when he was beaten here the Negroes would doze him, but they found opt that Marcos Garvey behind the bars was stronger than Marcos Garvey outside. (Loud applause.) And they came to the conclusion they had better open up those doors and let him out. The U. M. I.

Organizing is going on at a fever heat in South and Central America. The West Indies is standing on thte gazing toward the East. Africa is awake. Black men everywhere are tramping, tramping, tramping. Martial music is playing. Marcos Garvey has kindled the fire of freedom and independence in black men's hearts, and all hell cannot—(Uprourous cheering and applause drowned the remainder of the sentences.) "It is this courageous leader that we have come tonight to welcome back to Liberty Hall. It is this courageous leader for whom we have come tonight to give this oation. It is this courageous leader that we want to know that the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world are sticking behind him and are determined to stick until he has realized his dream of planting the Red: Black and green on every hilltop in Africa. "At this particular time I present to you an orator unparalleled in modern eloquence; a reformer as dauntless as Martin Luther; a matriarch as sublime as Crameror. Savonarola and a leader as courageous as Toussaint L'Ouverture, in the person of His Excellency, the Hon. Marcus Garvey." (Loud and prolonged applause.) The applause which marked the final words of Mr. Sheerill's eloquent address became vociferous as the Hon. Marcus Garvey rose to speak. When finally quiet reigned, he said: MR. GARVEY'S ADDRESS "Ladies and gentlemen." "It is needless for me to say that I please be meeting you in Liberty all the shrine of Negro inspiration, after an enforced absence of three months, is beyond my ability to express. "The news of the total of the celebrated case of fraud, and my so-called conviction, have made the circuit of the world, and black humanity everywhere, even to the remotest parts of our homeland Africa, have formed their opinion of Western twentieth century civilization and justice, as controlled and administered by the white man. "My absence from you did not leave me despondent, nor desolate, for in the daily silence of the passing hours in my cell I thought of you, the warriors of true liberty, who were working for the consummation of our ideals a free and redeemed Africa, and my meditations led me into greater flights of hope that shall strengthen me for the noble work of self-sacrifice for the cause, that we represent. The Trial "The anewing part of my trial is that I was indicted along with others for conspiracy to use the United States mails to defraud in the promotion of the Black Star Line Steamship Company, yet any conviction was void of conspiracy, in that I alone was convicted, and, if I understand my conviction clearly, I was convicted for selling stock in the Black Star Line after I knew it to be insolvent. The difference between us and the trial court is that they wanted a conviction, caring not how or some about, and they had it to cut themselves, to the extent that all the others, who had more to do with the actual selling of stock than I, went free, because they were not wanted, while I received the fullest penalty that the law could impose-five years in the penitentiary, the maximum fine of one thousand dollars as provided by law, and the entire cost of the case a condition not generally imposed but, maybe once in twenty-five years.

STEWART & BURRELL 100 W. 190th St. New York, N. Y. Phone AYBOURN 1923 promoting the Book Star Linda, for the idea of a line of steamship, operated by Negroes for the promotion of their industrial commercial, material and material well-being and never be involved or bankrupt (applauded) for, as long as the race lasts and as long as humanly indulges in the pursuit of progress and achievements, the new Negro will be found doing his part to hold a place in the affairs of the world. It is true that we have been defrauded, but it was done, not by those of us who love our work and our race, but by distal and dishonest ones, whom we thought had the same feeling as we do, and by crooked white men, who were not even ashamed of hiding their crookedness. One white man said in court that he sold us a ship when he knew it was not worth the money paid for it. Another took $25,000, and an additional $11,000 to buy the Phyllis Wheatley to go to Africa, which never materialized, and which money was never returned, the reason of which supplied the legal cause for my indictment. And yet it is said in the law of those who tried me that there was fraud and I should pay the penalty. The Black Star Line "The Black Star Line, as we all know, was but a small attempt, or experiment, of the race to fit and prepare ourselves for the bigger effort in the direction of racial self-reliance and self-determination. (Hear, hear). To say that we have failed, because a few black and white unsurrupulous persons deceived and robbed us, is to admit that the colonization scheme of America failed because a few Pilgrim Fathers died at Plymouth, and that the fight of the Allies to save the world to a new civilization failed because the Crown Prince met with early success at Vedun. The Black Star Line was only part of an honest effort on the part of real Negroes to re-establish themselves, as a worthy people among the other races and nations of the earth, and but a small contribution in the plan of a free and redeemed African nation for the Negro peoples of the world. The idea of a Black Steamboil Line, therefore, can only fall when the Negro race has completely passed away, and that means eternity. (Applause.) The Reason Why "I was convicted, not because any one was defrauded in the temporary failure of the Black Star Line brought about by others, but because I represented even as I do now, a movement for the real emancipation of my race (Color of Yes). I was convicted because I talked about Africa and about its redemption for Negroes. (Renewed eries). I was convicted because an atmosphere of hostility was created around me. I was convicted because wicked enemies, malicious and jealous members of my own race, misrepresented me to those in authority for the purpose of discrediting and destroying me. "I would not blame the few white persons who contributed to my conviction, neither would I blame the Government and the illiberal of the white race who had prejudices against me. They knew he better than the information they received from treacherous, malicious and jealous Negroes who, for the sake of position and privilege, will sell their own mothers." "I feel, however, that there white persons and the Government have now the opportunity of learning the truth, not only about my care and my conviction, but about the differences in the Negro race, that set one against the other. Appaling the Case I have no fear of the ultimate outcome of my case. I shall take it to the highest courts in the land, and from there to the bar of international public opinion, and even though I go to jail because of premise, I will have left behind for our generations a record of injustice that will be our guide in the future rise of Ethiopia's glory. (Appearance) Nevertheless, I believe that the higher courts of this country will not muzzle prejudice with justice and condemn a man simply because he is black, and委屈 be good for his race and his fellow men. "The Jail Has No Terrors" "Whatsoever happens, the world may know that the jail or penitentiary has no terrors for me. Guilty men are afraid of jail, but I am as much at home in jail for the cause of human rights as I am in my drawing room (Laughter), the only difference being that I have not my good wife's company even as I know how glad she would have been to show my lot, but hers must be a life of sacrifice also, painful though it be. When my life is fully given for the cause, and she is left behind, I trust that you will give her the consideration that is due a faithful and devoted wife, who gave up her husband for the cause of human services. During my trial cowards tried to blemish her character, but it is an accepted truth that character is not blemished from without; it is from within, and the noblest souls that ever peaked this world were those maligned and outraged by the vile and wicked. "Service to my race is an undying passion with me, so the greater the persecution, the greater my determination to serve. (Loud applause.) America Friend of Negroes "Ax leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which the Black Star Line was an auxiliary. I must state that the millions of our members in this country and abroad look to America as a national friend, and, citizens and residents as we are, we are jealous of her fair name among the other nations of the world and seafolio in the effort to be to her loyal and true. (Applause.)" "The Upliteral Negro Improvement Association seeks to do for Africa similarly what the Pilgrims, and, later, George Washington, sought to do for Americh. We Negroes want a government of our own in Africa, so that we can be nationally, if not industrially and commercially, removed from competition in race, a condition that will make both sexes better friends, with mailoo toward more, but respect and appreciation for each. "Our greatest trouble, however, is with our own people. There are some of the race who are not by sympathy with an independent Negro nation. To them they have lost nothing in Africa. They believe in the amalgamation of races for the production of new social and national types; hence, their doctrine of social equality and the creating of a new American race. Feeling as they do, divides into two separate and distinct schools of thought, and, apparently, we are now at war with each other, and they have gained the first victory in having me, through their misrepresentation, indicted and convicted for the purpose of rendering me hors de combat. "We who believe in race purity are going to fight the issue out for the salvation of both races, and this can only be satisfactorily done when we have established for the Negro nation of his own. We believe that the white race should protect itself against racial contamination, and the Negro should do the same. Nature intended us morally (and may I not say socially?) apart, otherwise there never could have been this difference. Our sins, will not make the world better; hence, to us of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the time has come to rebuild our ancient and proud race. Personal Suffering. "My personal suffering for the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is but a drop in the bucket of sacrifice. To correct the evils surrounding, our racial existence is to undertake a task as pretentious and difficult as dividing the sea or uprooting the Rock of Gibraltar; but, with the grace of God, all things are possible, for in truth there is prophecy that 'Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hand' and 'Princes shall come out of Egypt' (Aplause)." "We are expecting the co-operation and support of liberal White America in the promulgation of the ideal of race purity, and the founding of a nation for Negroes in Africa, so that those who, after proper industrial and other adjustments, desire to return to their original native homeland can do so in peace and security. "Now that the world is readjusting itself and political changes and distributions are being made of the earth's surface, there is absolutely no reason why certain parts of Africa should not be set aside absolutely for the Negro race as our claim and heritage. If this is not done, then we may as well look forward to eternal confusion among the races. Superstate for Negroes. "Negro men will never always feel satisfied with being ruled, governed and dictated to by other races. As in my case, I would never feel satisfied with being absolutely tried and judged by a white judge, district attorney and jury, for it is impossible for them to correctly interpret the rech' feelings of my race and appreciate my effort in their behalf; hence, the prejudice from which I suffer. A white man before a black district attorney, judge and jury would feel the same way, and thus we have the great problem that can only be solved by giving the Negro a government of his own (Loud and prolonged applause). The Black Star Line was an effort in this direction and here a relationship to the Universal Negro Improvement Association as the Shipping Board does to the Government. My effort was not correctly understood, and that is why some people have become prejudiced toward me. Yet in the final presentation of truth the fair-minded is bound to come to the conclusion that the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is reasonable and proper for the solution of the vexed question of races. "Africa at this time affords a splendid opportunity to the creation of a super Negro State, now withstanding the machinations of France Italy England, Belgium and Portugal. The peace of Europe and of the human race will only be settled on a proper adjustment of the African situation, and selfish European nations should not be allowed to transfer the theatre of war and human bankruptcy from Europe to Africa, for if their present plans and schemes are carried out without check or hindrance it will mean that in another fifty years another Napoleon or William II will be attempting to create out of Africa another European empire at the cost of countless millions of lives. (HEAR hear). "I have but briefly outlined some of the things in my mind, but I must assure you that my imprisonment for three months has not left me so far. I am not vexed with anybody. I calculated that my own people would be against me for serving them, but I also feel satisfied that the masses are with me, and that it is with their support that I find it possible to be here tonight. But for the constant illness of my wife I would have had no sorrow. Returning Thanks "At this juncture I want specially to return thanks to you, the members of Liberty Hall, who stuck by the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association when your leader was removed from you. I can understand and appreciate the struggles that were undergone by you while I remained, in the Tombs. You had, for the purpose of dragging me from behind bars, fight the lip service and insufficiency of those who pretended that they wanted me to be free yet were working to keep me in jail. But for you, the people, and a few, of those who associated themselves with me as members of the council, I would not only have remained in the Tombs, but I would have been sent to Atlanta. The Part Mrs. Garvey Played "I publicly have to thank my wife for the incitement that she made along with Mr. Bourne, Mr. Boston, and Mr. Sherrill, of the Executive Committee, and Mr. D. E. Tobias, to secure my release to fight the battle to the end. When she started to present my case to America and to the world, govern of those who should have good behind me, who pleaded, they would have stood behind the principle of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, attempted to deter, that poor, little woman, to strike fear and terror into her heart and told her girl was doing the wrong thing. But, obedient wife as she is and loyal as she has been to me and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, she carried out the instructions I gave her, and tonight, with your assistance and the assistance of the other members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, I am able to be with you in. Libert's Hall. (Applause.) When she started the fight and this little woman took my commands to carry them out, several of the men got weak-kneed and said we could not afford to fight the government. We will fight hell. (Uprourious applause.) We were not fighting the United States Government. We were not fighting the government, but we were fighting injustice, and we shall fight injustice to the gates of hell. (Applause.) Counted the Cost "Who tells them, whether they be leaders or followers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, that we will stop at anything when we started the light of African redemption? Who tells them that anything in the world beside God can strike terror and fear in the hearts of twentient century black men? Who tells them that Garvey is afraid of jail? Who tells them that Garvey is afraid of five, twenty or thirty years in Atlanta? Garvey is as ready to go back as he was ready to age in the first instance. The jail has no terrorors for me. As I said before, I am as much at home in the Tombs as in my drawing room, and but for the pale face of my wife and the suffering depicted in her countenance every morning as she came to see me I would have been as happy. Have sending out the messages of inspiration and hope to 400,000,000 black souls as speaking from the platform of Liberty Hall. As I told you more than once, I counted the cost of being identified with the Universal Negro Improvement Association as one of its leaders before I started. And, therefore, I have no sorrow. I have no tears, I have no regrets for what has happened to me and for what may happen to me in the future. To hell with the jail. (Appeause). The jail was not made for me, but if I get in jail, my brain can be as resourceful in jail as out of jail. And the three months they kept me if jail supplied me with new ideas - (daughter and appeause) - and with a new program. And if they want to give me five years' rest then I will have edited an encyclopedia of ideas, and if I become too old to execute them I will pass them on, one by one, to others who I know are working as assiduously as I have done and I am doing for this great cause of ours. (Appeause). "Why I Tried My Own Case." "Some of you have heard many things; you have heard many discussions during my trial and during my continence. Some of you said I should not have tried my own case. If I had not tried my own case, at the time I would be facing a sentence of thirty years. I would have been found guilty on six or seven counts, would have been given five years on each count out of the twelve on which I was indicted. But I was not sued to foot it to my Negro put me in jail for thirty years without opening my mouth. So on the second day I took over my own case and got five years where I would have gotten thirty years. "Now I am not going to throw the case. It is not proper. It is not within the law. But I tried the case not because I wanted to go free, because my best legal mind said at a certain time that we can get you free by fighting this thing only on the law. It is purely a commercial case, and we do this and we can do that, and there is no offense committed by you against the law. But it meant that if I had tried my case with prejudice to the best attorney in this country, Morning Grey would have gone free and the Universal Negro Improvement Association would have been convicted up. Now you must understand that we had a complicated affair. We were before a law court and not before a jury gathering. I was indicted to bring the United States mails to detain in the promotion of the Black Star Line, not in the promotion of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. "It was purely a circumstance from the viewpoint of the law. If I had gone to trial on only the viewpoint of the law as some lawyers wanted to do, I probably would have been acquitted with the other men because no wrong was committed. We did the best we could but for those who tried to rob and piller us. But in the law's little things said about the Universal Negro Improvement Association would have been irrelevant. No lawyer could have introduced them, because no court would have tolerated it. And, therefore being a layman and the president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, my duty was to save the Universal Negro Improvement Association and save the ideals of the people even at the cost of imprisonment for five years. So that there was much more to be considered than the case on the surface. I feel sure that every honest-minded person knows no wrong has been done in the promotion of the Black Star Line. We are satisfied to carry the case to the highest court of appeal in this country and hire the best lawyers to protect my interests. Good News from Africa "I come back to you feeling happy, feeling glad, feeling satisfied you have done, nolly. You have done well. I remained in jail long enough to get the news. Do you know what 'news I got?' I got the news that West Africa was on fire. On the twenty-eighth of August the Chicago "Tribune," the second largest daily paper in this country, published a three-column article, a special radio dispatch from West Africa, stating that the blacks of West Africa and of the Southern of Africa were agi- helping and maintaining for a black African appropriate (apprehension)—because they were impounded over the imprisonment of Nairobi survey. So we will reside for three months in to get the African in one position securing for a republic. I am willing to retain five years to bet all Africa. (Apprehension.) "Now I am not going to keep you longer, because I want to meet those of you, who are my friends one by one and shake your hands. I have to thank those of you who subscribed so liberally and freely from your meagre means to assist in securing bond for me. Every effort made to secure bond was blocked. When we complied with one thing the bonding companies wanted another. Our enemies were at work to block every effort to free me, and when the last resort was to get $25,000 in cash you got it in twenty-four hours, between New York and Detroit, noble Detroit, You in New York in the space of twelve hours subscribed $12,500. Detroit in the space of twenty-four hours subscribed $7,000. Between New York and Detroit and Cincinnati and Philadelphia, $25,000 or $27,000 were subscribed in forty-eight hours, and when we had the $25,000 it was reduced to $15,000. Stick By the Principles And me links at this hour, looking at this vast assembly, that I see Negroes assembled not only in New York, but in other parts of the world. As I go along I shall see vast thruings in Philadelphia, in Detroit, in Cincinnati, in Kansas, on the war in Ww. when I hope to send a few weeks' holiday. I am going to off to Leavenworth and tell the law. I will soon be in Charleston. God it will soon be good and productive applause. Two Work hours The classmate of the His Hunting in the Hunt G. O.

SUCCESSFUL CONCERT AT PORT LINKON DIV. NO. 110 --- On Wednesday night July 1 at 7 P.M. hundreds of people could be kept wading there way to the Liberty Hall of Port Lyman on the purpose of attending a great concert which was sung through the instrumentals of Mr. G. B. Cox. Before 7 o'clock the speeches held was adjudged to its utmost capacity although anyone waiting to come to the program is inside of the face that the Hon. Marcus Garvey is conceived which curved a spirit of the sneeze among our people the large gathering was rather enthusiastic. The members of the Port Lyman Division were not surprised to a great extent at the conviction, as we are aware that all leaders of reform movements are likely to suffer. It is our intention to adhere closely to the principles laid down by our great leader. The conviction of our leader has caused an increase of membership; we have obtained greater patronage for our business since the upheaval. The grand concert was attended by many of the government officials, also many of those who are opposed to the movement. Great credit must be given to Mr. Charles Swarton, who presided at the piano, and to Mr. Q. B. Cox, who spared no pains in making the concert a success. Mr. Cox is a true Garveyite and is doing all that he can to uplift his race. A varied and interesting program was remembered and greatly enjoyed by the audience, who showed their appreciation, by heartily encoring the various selections. G. E. WELLINGTON. De Omnibus Rebus I read today in the New York World that Mayor Joseph Caufiel of Johnstown, Pa., has ordered more than 2,000 Nogroes to leave the City of Johnstown immediately. Reading the whole account, the thing which is most striking ing is, not that Negroes have been ordered to leave, but the source from which the order comes. It is no new thing in the life of Negroes to receive orders in various sections of the country to leave immediately. Orders have been received before by such organizations as the K. K. K., by irresponsible citizens of a particular locality or rival industrial organizations, but this is the first time where constituted authority as represented in a mayor has ordered a large group of Negro citizens who pay taxes and other public subscriptions for the upkeep of the community and support of the mayor to leave their homes without any provocation on the part of these citizens themselves, but simply because a member of their race happened to run amuck. If white people were run out of every town where some irresponsible white man had run amuck, both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans would be filled with the entire population of America. But, of course, we know no mayor would even think of asking the whole or part of any white community to leave that community because one white man ran amuck. The thought is in itself absurd and preposterous. Even this mayor himself would not think of such a thing, yet he doesn't hesitate to issue a proclamation ordering 2,000 Negroes to leave Johnstown. This act on the part of Mayor Caufal is a general example of the Negro's position in this country which is shaped by white public opinion. Although the Negro in this country helps her to fight her battles, bridge its streams, tunnel its mountains and by their earnings pay her taxes, his political, economic and social development is entirely dependable, not upon his privilege and oppa entirely depend onity as a citizen, but the good grace finds himself. The law of the coun- tries at clashes with white public crimes enty and local law are written can happen to the Negro. This act on a for indication of what can and will be clash with those of the whites mains a weakly organized group, depr place of habitat on the good praises of nurses and presidents be able to remo- least prosecution. The Negro has but and build for himself somewhere, sew- ly every interest. This recent acti- tory material age the feelings, ambitions, received or hardly tal in account but somebody. county as a citizen, but the good gracer of the majority group with which he finds himself. The love of the country mean little or nothing to the Negro where it clashes with white public opinion. As long as segregation, race, race unity and lynching are written in the attitude of the white man, anything can happen to the Negro. This act on the part of the Mayor of Johnstown is a fine indication of what can and will happen to the Negro whenever his ties clash with those of the whites about him. As long as the Negro remains a weakly organized group, depending for his livelihood, existence and place of habitat on the good praises of other people, so long will mayors, governors and presidents be able to remove him from one place to another on the least provocation. The Negro has but one alternative, and that is to establish and build for himself somewhere, somehow, a power strong enough to protect his every interest. This recent action is food for much thought. In this material are the feelings, ambitions, hopes and wishes of a people are not respected or hardly taken into account unless that people is strong enough to hurt somebody. For every 3,191 Negroes in the country we have one Negro physician, while the whites have one physician to every 552 whites. For every 20,500 Negroes the race has one dentist, while the whites have one for every 2,070. The dentist, while the should start the Negroes thinking who in the race. We may have too many many in the race. The average Negro has over-crowded certain localities especially in the North where the Negro doctors. We need more also in the South, where millions of Negro living out a mere existence in a big service to the race if he had the course some of the new Negro communities which on. The figures stated above should should start these Negroes thinking who assert that we have too many doctors in the race. We may have too many doctors crowded in one place, but not too many in the race. The average Negro doctor's ambition to live in the big city has over-crowded certain localities with doctors, while many small places especially in the North where the Negro has migrated recently, cry for efficient Negro doctors. We need more in the small towns and rural districts, also in the South, where millions of Negroes still live. Many a Negro doctor cling out a mere existence in a big city would do well and render great service to the race if he had the courage to open a new field for himself in some of the new Negro communities which have been made by northern migration. The figures stated above should also be a source of inspiration for the THE N. A. A. C. P. IN KANSAS CITY The General Association for the Advancement of Volunteer People is holding its fourteenth annual conference in Kansas City, Mo., the week, byng convened Wednesday. A significant matter worthy of notice is the fact that Washington, byng the largest membership of all the branches in the country, did not send a delegate. The executive secretary is in 'Atlantic City, on a two-weeks' vacation. The meeting in Newark last year had the smallest attendance of any of the annual conferences, and the fact that Washington, the largest branch, is not represented at Kansas City, this year, does not look encouraging. This is a clear demonstration of the fact that the N. A. A. C. P. is not a democratic and representative organization. Its cohesive and automatic distribution has hampered the service that it is supposed to render the race. A national racial organization must represent and serve the race. Washington Tribune.

Those who drink know thus, at least a majority of those who drink it cannot be important of the true conditions. Why then do they drink? First, there is the acquired appetite, but another reason is resentment against interference with their personal habita. This is a phase of prohibition that we cannot escape. Liquor is contraband. Any individual dealing in it is a lawbreaker, and it idiocy to believe that a man who commercializes a purpose to commit crime will act in good faith with his patrons. He takes many chances and doubts, from his blurred viewpoint, he imagines he is justified in almost anything he does to increase profits. The pregnant truth is this: Poison is being peddled, and there seem a way of preventing it. --- Mere ee Pet ts nem Ap Me Rhine oni yi Sk ge Ye Su Fo Sat orld ee eee | ee q {5 i ae ee: (ee Na eee sree” Wires att aren eri th Baraat, Mee Ver, TK Balto Beggs? idaspers norton Set : re ee f oc Os evrtag ie the iverens ot she Negroes ‘and 58 iS ikeromener lation by the African Communities’ .

We of this xencration-can no lotiger be fooled by the lying, hypoeritical-anxiety which perfidious Albion professes to have for the backward races. We could respect her if she would frankly announce that she holds her empire hy force and force alone ; that her ‘colonies and dependen- cies are held for the benefit of her white citizens and that the interests cf the subject races are secondary and'subsidiary. The colored sub- jects of the British Empire have grown tired of the arrogant and insolent attitude adopted by white Englishtien towards the native races, and if they appear loyal and patriotic it is because for the time being it is expedient-to be so. The Indians have lost in their fight for political efuality, and we regret-this very much, A victory for the Indians ‘would have meant partial emancipation for the millions of Negroes who, at present, seem to be treated more like cattle than human beings,.It is worthy of note, however, that it‘is precisely on account of these’ same natives that Great Britain has denfed to the Indians equal rights and upheld the practice of the white settlers in ‘segregating the non-whites and compelling them. to live in the un- healthy lowlands while they keep the highlands for themistlves. ‘This is indeed protection with.a vengeance, anda safeguarding of tative rights, Thus Great Britain exploits the Negro, segregates him, denies him any political freedom, but announces to-the World that she wishes to protect him from exploitation by the Indians, hence she etnnot give the Indians equal political rights. ‘The sad part of the whole affair is that the poor Negto is entirely ignorant of the let tat two alien races are striving for the mastery wf his rf txnds, DE ONMIBUS REBUS .

Has Entered Politics for the Furtherance of Its Program—Urges Members Who Are Citizens to Take an Active Part in Politics and Those Who Are Not to Get Naturalized—Speeches Delivered by Hon. William Sherrill, Hon. R. L. Poston and Hon. Rudolph Smith LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday night, September 16. — Looking at the picture of health. Hon. Marcus Garvey feeds his first Sunday night, audience face his release from prison and was given a rousing ovation. The hall, which is capable of accommodating just six thousand persons, was filled capacity; every available seat was keen and the stables were crowded at 10 stands, while around the doors windows hung a large crowd each was satisfied to look on even they could not hear the message which the President-General brought his faithful after his absence on them. Three months ago Mr. Garvey left a band of followers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who, though none the less enthusiastic for the cause, was synthetic towards him because of his living fallen within the clutches of law, but who nevertheless were preful and prayed for his deliverance. To light up returned to and from increased in numbers, more enthusiastic than before and more loyal an ever toward him, his sacrifice living convinced them of the sincerity his leadership and his devotion to cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the uplift a betterment of the race. Mr. Garvey has lost none of the prerelentness that has characterized his leadership and which has sent his one around the world to the fearless imam of Negro rights and advocacy of African government in Africa. As subject of his speech was "The sign by Which We Conquer," and the course of his remarks he commended the membership of the association for the perseverance and determination which they had managed and which had brought about entire change of feeling throughout the world in favor of the Universal Igno Improvement Association. Tight, said Mr. Garvey, the organization that a few founded four or five years ago has become the talk of the world and has made such an impression on the world that statesmen everywhere, not only in America but throughout civilization, are worried as the outcome; we, however, are conscious that the outcome will be nothing more and nothing less than an independent government for Negroes. His imprisonment for three months, Mr. Garvey said, was one of the averages through which we would get our program presented to the world, and was not one big sorry to contribute to their direction so as to at least impress the world some more about the懒ness of the Universal Negro improvement Association. Further on his address Mr. Garvey spoke actually of the resuscitation of the lack Star Line. His remarks on this slit were wise and humorous and ought, many laughs from the audience, yet they did not fail to strike me and impart the feeling that the lack Star Line, although temporarily spended, would again be revived and of service to the race in the working out of the program for the redemption of Africa. Snoking of the plans of the association, Mr. Garvey said that since her organizations had used politics to defeat the program of the U. N. A. It was the purpose of the association now to enter into politics and to politics as a plank in its platform, so therefore advised all those who are qualified to be active and get registered wherever they are. Those who are not citizens he advised, for their convenience and for the compliance of carrying on the program, get naturalized. If the N. A. A. C. P. id. Mr. Garvey, feels it can play politics with two hundred thousand and it one man in jail, we can play politics with two millions and get a dozen in jail. The other speakers were Hon. William Sherrill, who presided as chairman; Hon. R. L. Poston and Hon. Rulph Smith. Following is the text of no speeches: PENING REMARKS OF THE HON. WILLIAM SHERRILL The Hon. William Sherrill in open- the meeting said: "We are in- ed glad to welcome to Liberty Hall its vast audience of black men and men who demonstrate by their respect that at least they are inter- ested in the Negro and these things fighting the Negro. We simply want may in welcoming you so this hall- night that you are now in the sum of the New Negro. Our plat- form is brief and yet precise. We are empty Negroes who love white men, a love yellow men, we love brown but we love ourselves a little Caucasian. (Adapted.) We are Joe- groes who are proud of America; we are proud of England; we are proud of all countries and nationalities, but we are still proder of Africa. Applause.) We are Negroes who believe that white people may be able to give us some assistance in working out our destiny; brown people may be able to give us some assistance in working out our destiny and yellow people may be able to do the same, but we believe that the ultimate working out of the destiny of the black man lies within the hands of the black man himself. In other words the Negroes represented in this organization simply represent black men who are thinking of black men first, everybody else second. (Applause.) If you feel that you would like such a program for your race; if you feel that you would be interested in the putting over of such a program for your race you are welcome not only to sit in this auditorium and listen to the many speeches that come from the platform from time to time, but you are welcome to come to this table and enroll. As I have said before, we have no password; we have no skins; we have no grips; the black in your face and the nap in your hair is your grip and password. (Applause.) "God Bless Our President" Just at this time we are going to stand and sing "God Bless Our President." I feel that we can sing that with clear voices, for indeed, God has blessed our President to the extent that again we have him in Liberty Hall with us on Sunday night. (Applause. The audience rose, and joined heartily in the singing. Presenting the Hon. Marcus Garvey in presenting the President-General, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, to speak, Mr. Sherrill said: "God indeed, on the poet says, 'moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform.' We, to-night, are still pibilant and fröbeling because of the fact that the founder of this great movement which is now shaking the world—in the person of the Hon. Marcus Garvey—has returned to us. Wanting a Leader For a long time the Negro has been wanting a leader—a real leader. Just before the Hon. Marcus Garvey appeared upon the scene the Negro was just about at the point where he was discouraged. He had about reached that point where he felt there was hardly any Negro who was absolutely honest and sincere as regards the interest of his race to the extent that he was willing to make every sacrifice, even to the supreme sacrifice for that race. The four and a half years that His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey* has been in our midst has convinced Negroes not only in America, but Negroes everywhere, that indeed and in truth there has come among us one who is willing to make that sacrifice; one who is willing to wear out his very life for the service of his people. It is indeed with pleasure inexpressible that I will now present to you the founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the leader of the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world in the person of His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey. (Vociferous applause.) Hon. Marcus Garvey rose amidst great cheering and spoke as follows: My subject for tonight is "The Sign By Which We Conquer." Perseverance and determination on the part of any people lead ultimately to the goal which they seek. That you are here this evening and hundreds of thousands and millions probably of Negroes are so assembled in different parts of the world in mass meetings tonight carrying out the exercises of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is proof that perseverance and determination will ultimately bring about success for any people. A Changed Attitude Towards the U. N. L. A. When we started our movement a few years ago with just a few, the world of other men spurned us, laughed at us, and said that we were wasting time because we could not improve the world. Today that opinion has changed. It has been changed because of the perseverance of the few and the determination of the few. They persevered long enough until they were able to improve not only their immediate community but attract the entire world. And tonight the organization that a few founded four and a half or five years ago has become the talk of the world and made such an impact on the world that customers everywhere not only in America but throughout civilization are worried, as to the outcome. We are conscious of ourselves what the outcome will be. The outcome for us will be nothing more and nothing less than an independent government for Negroes. (Applause.) It was that vision that attracted us five years ago when just thirteen or a few more of us founded this organization; it is the same vision that attracts us now that we are six million organized; it is the same vision that will attract us until we have completely brought into the fold—if not in active labor, with sentiment and sympathy—the 400,000,000 Negroes of our race. (Applause.) The Effect of His Imprisonment. My imprisonment for three months was one of the avenues through which we would get our program presented to the world; and I was not sorry one bit to contribute in that direction to at least impress the world some more about the seriousness of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. That impression of seriousness—the compliment of it, is for you not for me, in that I was placed in a position that I could not help myself more than to write to the world; but that could not move men. The impress that was made upon the world for the last three months was made by you—by your perseverance and by your determination. The world knows that human achievements and human movements are carried on and conducted not by everybody but by the direction of those who lead, and the strategy of a few people has always sought to remove the leaders of movements and if successfully cornered they calculate they would destroy the movement. Experimenting With Garvey. Well: they were experimenting with me. They put me in jail to try out if they could destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association and then they found a greater Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Applause). Now I suppose—they will change their tactics. Nevertheless the three months has convinced me everywhere that the new Negro is here. Now what they did to me for three months with the intention of destroying the movement represented by me would have succeeded in another age, and another time prior to this. Ten years ago—twenty-five years ago if anyone attempted to start a movement as big probably as the Universal Negro Improvement Association and they did what they did to me, naturally as from the attitude of the Negro himself they would have destroyed the movement; but that was the time of the old Negro. They had the plan all right, but they worked the plan in the wrong time. If they had worked that plan ten years ago or fifteen years ago they would have succeeded, but they can- ANSWER DO U WANT TO FORGE AHEAD? Is your business undertaking bringing you net returns?

There is no doubt about it that the man who way to being smart is never far off in anything. I do not see why the world should be worried about the Universal Negro Improvement Association and worried about Marvin Garvey. If the world has not done anything to Negroes why should it be worried about the activity of Negroes. The world must know that we as a people are not seeking to create any disturbance—to affect the peace of communities and the harmony of races. We are not disposed that way.

THE PEOPLE'S VOICE THE HON. MARCUS GARVEY, on his first public appearance at Liberty Hall, New York, on Thursday night, the 13th of August, was accorded an ovation such as few men can command. It was a personal triumph of the most convincing nature. The crowned heads of nations, chieftains who have deserved well of their country, have been, of course, the recipients of ovations launched on a grander, more pretentious scale. But no acclamation which ever greeted them could excel in depth of feeling, in spontaneity and fervor and wholeheartedness and sincerity that which hailed the Hon. Marcus Garvey, patriot and great leader, as he faced five thousand of his constituents after an enforced absence of nearly three months. And as coming from a Negro assemblage, in honor of a Negro, the demonstration was all the more remarkable. It was a significant sign of the times, a striking commentary on the revolution in thought which has been accomplished among Negroes by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. One of the greatest, glaring weaknesses of the Negro has been an unappreciiveness for his own. We had almost said—a hatred of his own. The Negro, to whom Marcus Garvey issued his clarion call, was a Negro who would sooner acclaim George Washington on the Duke of Marlborough than Toussaint L'Ouryture; to whom the memory of Sir Walter Scott or Charles Kingsley was dearer than that of Alexander Dumas or Terence; to whom Napoleon Bonaparte was a demi-god, and Hannibal, a raw, crude, untutored warrior. That a prophet had no honor among his own kin applied with peculiar aptness to Negroes before Marcus Garvey came. Shortly after the meeting on last Thursday night, a man brought to us a Greek Testament and asked that we give it to the proper authorities, so that it may be returned to the rightful owner. "I don't know what sort of writing is in it," he observed. "Arabic on something it looks like," he ventured. "It is Greek, a Greek Testament," we replied. "Greek! How do you know?" he returned: "I know Greek when I see it," he blustered, his puzzled expression giving the lie to his words, even as he uttered them. "Suppose a white man had told you it was Greek" we inquired, "would you have believed him?" "Well, yes," he drawled. "Are you a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association?" we thrust. "Not yet," was the admission. "Well, join up as quickly as you can," we pleaded, and departed. Here was a sample of the mentality of some Negroes, a mentality hammered into them through long years during which they have been prey to the insidious propaganda that virtues and knowledge are to be found only in a white setting. This is the mentality that the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which Maren Carvery founded, is tearing up for the roots. The wonderful, never-to-be forgotten creation accorded Marcus Garvey, a Negro, by an assemblage of thousands of Negroes in the heart of the metropolis of a white man's country was an event of the first magnitude. It shows a revolution of thought, a return to race consciousness on the part of the new Negro which augurs well for the success of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the eventual emancipation, true and complete, of Negroes everywhere. The Hon. Marcus Garvey had just left a prison cell, in which he had been confined, as the world was asked to believe, for defending Negroes. He was still being subjected to a furious fustilade of criticism, the convulsive effort of a despairing enemy, designed to discredit him in the eyes of Negroes and all the world for all time. Day in, day out, he was being held up before the world as the most despicable type of Negro, a parasite, a tiger to be caged, if the flow of Negroes' life-blood was to be stanched. And then—his release! A reception, stunning in its intensity, accorded by his "victims!" For him and the cause he represents, a triumph extraordinary, the first fruits of martyrdom. To his enemies, a paradox appalling, a cup of bitterness. As five thousand Negroes gave their man of destiny their tremendous welcome last Thursday night, they reiterated their warning to the world that at last the time has come when the slumbering giant has awakened from sleep and, conscious of his strength and the potentialities that proceed from obedience to the divine injunction, "Know thyself," is on his way to a future that knows no serf-eign, no pronage, no jim-crowism, no segregation, no slavery. LEAGUE OF NATIONS DOES NOT JUSTIFY ITS EXISTENCE The nations who are members of the League which is now in session at Geneva are without doubt very angry with the fiery, impetuous and swash-buckling Senior Mussolini for having shown so clearly to the world the impotence of the League to handle questions of vital importance when the so-called honor and integrity of strong and sovereign powers are involved. The League is without doubt an excellent body for settling unimportant disputes and minor differences between the smaller nations; for rushing help to distressed Armenians and refugee Greeks, and endeavoring to suppress sex publications and limiting the license of painter and sculptor. They are, however, utterly impotent to reduce, not to say abolish, the traffic in opium and cocaine, because the big powers are directly interested in this traffic, and are determined to block any move on the part of the smaller nations to have the trade in these drugs stopped. The League is dominated by England, France, Japan and Italy, who, instead of bending their energy towards a world's readjustment which would help the smaller nations and the backward races send their statesmen to Geneva to get as much as they can from the weaker nations. Some of these smaller powers being heavily indebted to Great Britain and France are compelled to vote in favor of either France or Great Britain or else incur the displeasure of these powers. The League is rather unfortunate in that every time they are in general session some fire-eating general or statesman starts something which shows up the impotence of the League and its uselessness so plainly as to cause the most ardent admirer of the society to doubt its ability to handle matters of real importance and carry out its aims and objects. Last year Kemal Pasha started to chase the Greeks out of Turkish territory, defy old England and kick up a general rumpus. He told the league that he would not submit the matter to them and called for a special conference at Lausanne. This year Senior Mussolini waited until the League was in session to bully the Greeks, occupy Corfu, and look longingly towards Fjume, and then told Greece that he was ready to submit the matter—not to the League—but to a council of ambassadors. The supporters of the League of Nations are now casting about for some one to blame for the League not functioning, and they have decided that Uncle Sam is the cause. They claim that if Uncle Sam would join the League whenever anypne started to make trouble all that would be necessary would be for Sam to furnish the money and some young American citizens in order that they might go in for bloody coercion. They believe that it would be better for the Americans to spend their energy upon the battlefields of Europe or Asia than to waste it lynching a poor Negro, and their money in financing the schemes of the League than to be buying tar, rope and white sheets. The League is now busy laying plans for a universal peace which will surely give us another world war, but in the meantime we sympathize with the League and especially with Lord Dolbert Cecil for their idealistic intentions. Impire of all the honowed words and fair promise made by the British statesmen to the Indians that "the principle of British justice and fair play would be upheld," that "the empire is a commonwealth of free nations existing for the common good and advancement of all its subjects of whatever race and color and having a special responsibility to the backward races. Great Britain, in giving her decision on the Kenya question in favor of the white settlers, has shown that when she is called upon to practice what she preaches regarding equality within the empire, she is always ready to retract her promises made to the colored races. We of this generation can no longer be fooled by the lying, hypocritical anxiety which perjudicious Allion professes to have for the backward races. We could respect her if she would frankly announce that she holds her empire by force and force alone; that her colonies and dependencies are held for the benefit of her white citizens and that the interests of the subject races are secondary and subsidiary. The colored subjects of the British Empire have grown tired of the arrogant and insolent attitude adopted by white Englishmen towards the native races, and if they appear loyal and patriotic it is because for the time being it is expedient to be so. The Indians have lost in their fight for political equality, and we regret this very much. A victory for the Indians would have meant partial emancipation for the millions of Negroes who, at present, seem to be treated more like cattle than human beings. It is worthy of note, however, that it is precisely on account of these same natives that Great Britain has denied to the Indians equal rights and upheld the practice of the white settlers in segregating the non-whitees and compelling them to live in the unhealthy lowlands while they keep the highlands for themselves. This is indeed protection with a vengeance, and a safeguarding of native rights. Thus Great Britain exploits the Negro, segregates him, denies him any political freedom, but announces to the world that she wishes to protect him from exploitation by the Indians, hence she cannot give the Indians equal political rights. The sad part of the whole affair is that the poor Negro is entirely ignorant of the fact that two alien races are striving for the mastery of his lands. many young and ambitious Negroes who are struggling through the medical schools of this country, for it portrays vividly the fact that there is plenty of room at the top. If 553 whites necessitate the services of one physician and 2,070 whites necessitate the services of one dentist, then there is no reason why Negroes should have only one physician to 3,194 or one dentist to every 20,500. These facts should cause young Negroes who are aspiring to fields of endeavor to look toward the medical field. Greece ungovers nakedly the true worth of the League to the world as an instrument of peace. "I deny absolutely the competency of the League of Nations to middle in the affairs touching Italy's honor. I might even go so far as to say Italy would withdrew from the "League of Nations," is Mussolini's statement, about which nothing has been done, proving conclusively that the League, as far as peace is concerned, is simply making meaningless gestures. Up to the present time the League of Nations has not been able to settle any dispute or misunderstanding arising between any other than minor governments. Whenever a major government has any dispute to settle, it ignores entirely the League of which it is a member. When England found herself face to face with the Near Eastern crisis, she ignored the League, even though certain delegations prevailed with Lloyd George to accept the intervention on the part of the council of the League. When France made up her mind to enter the Ruhr, she took no notice of what the League might think. Now Italy desires Fiume and a portion of the rich coast of Greece, therefore, in spite of the League's attitude, Italy maintains an attitude of her own. on the part of those who are supposed to be establishing world peace, there will be no peace. The League of Nations can only be an instrument of peace when petty ambitions and national desires and interests of each nation subject themselves to the combined interest of the whole. If the League of Nations is to serve the purpose for which it is supposed to be created, it must serve humanity at large. If each nation is going to bring in the League its own national ambitions, desires and petty jealousies, then the League of Nations will last no longer than that point where these jealousies and ambitions cross which, when crossed, will necessitate settlement, as of old, on fields of battle. The truth is that the past action of the League do not IS THE LEAGUE portray honest intent on its part. It appears that in the final analysis the League of Nations is only an instru- them brought into being by arrows diplomatic who are determined to keep by diplomacy that which they Have won in fields of battle. The League is on trial and the Negro peoples of the world are watching with keen interest this trial. Watching because we have very much at stake as a race in the success or failure of establishing peace. Our hope is that the League will be fit to embrace the interest of all humanity because we realize that there can be no peace so long as one grade, one nation or one race is elevated at the sacrifice of the other. Whether the League will be viciousized or condemned will be determined by their future establishment of faith and confidence not only with the powers which have plenty of liquid fire, poisonous gas, big guns and battalions but with weaker who are fast becoming strong.

If it be to protect the right of the weak, whoever objects, do it.' Also, Let the laws preclaim to the humbleest citizen, performing the most mental task, the recognition of his manhood, the recognition that all men are peers, the humbleest with the most exalted, the recognition that all work is glorified." "Mr. President, the carrying out of that recognition of the law and of the manhood of these millions of weak people and the doing of the day's work in these behalf would exalt the President of these United States as the greatest humanitarian since Christ walked among men. May we hope for your 'recognition' of the manhood of the humbleest citizen and the enforcement of the Constitution in his behalf? In recognizing the manhood of the humble citizen and doing the day's work, Mr. President, you will find that all the railroads of the South discriminate against 15,000,000 Negro citizens of America and force them into humiliation by compelling them to ride in Jim crow cars, by forcing them into discriminated waiting rooms at railway stations. And this position by the railroads is sustained by the United States government, of which you are the chief executive. This government has failed to recognize the manhood rights of 15,000,000 of its most loyal citizens. May we expect you to take steps to right these wrongs? "In doing the day's work, last February you dedicated the Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala. Built expressly for Negro veterans, with the tacit understanding that it would be manned by a Negro personnel. However, someone has 'objected' to the government taking care of its own ill and malmed veterans in its own building, on its own ground, by a personnel of the race of the patients therein. And this great government has failed to 'do the day's work,' because of the un-American objection of two or three persons. May we expect the President to 'recognize the manhood rights' of the Negro in this case and see that simple justice is carried out and that the government will keep faith with its humble citizens." "In doing the day's work pertaining to the nation's capital, Mr. President, you will find rank discrimination running rampage here, fostered and enforced by officers under your jurisdiction. Will one-fourth of Washington's population continue to suffer humiliation and discrimination in public buildings and on public grounds of their government under your administration?" DEMPSEY RETAINS HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE Ring generalship, intelligence won the fight for Dempsey. This is the consensus. Sporting writers are agreed that the champion was in danger, that his triumph was due to headwork more than to anything else, and that the South American put up a game battle, but he thinks too slowly. It is so in all athletic contests. More brawn, strength, is not sufficient. There is psychology in boxing as well as in practicing how to be successful the Lexer must use his head in other ways than as a target for blows. It is further agreed that the battle at the Polo Grounds was fairly staged and that he was managed with an eye single to good sportsmanship. The championship title remains in the States, which, to a certain extent, is gratifying to our pride, although Demsey is not a popular hero, and never can become one. He will have a following all successful main have, but not a following loyal and ready to go the limit, as Sultivan bad, as Pitz-simmons bad, or as some of the middle-weights of today have. He may be the victim of circumstances, but they are circumstances that cannot now be altered. The question now is will he give Wills a chance, or will some new pretext he made for ride teaching the one man who can meet him on more equal terms than any other man in the fictitious media. HE TALKS LIKE NORTHERN NEGRO; ALMOST LYNCHED PINE BLUFF, Ark, Sept. 1.—Having in his possession clippings which showed that he had been delivering lectures in Louisiana and Mississippi urging Negroes to stay in the South is all that saved J. W. White, a colored visitor, from a severe flogging by whites at Crossett, Ark., recently. Five white men had taken five miles west of Crossett, to either Irish or flog him because he was believed to be a labor agent, and that he had enticed many Negroes to go North. White was well dressed and is said to have "talked like a Northern Negro," and this war why he was mistaken for a labor agent. When his captors became convinced that he was "on their side of the fence," they brought him back to town, loaded him down with good clothes and other refreshments, and sent him on his way refining—Keho. Owing to pressure on our space the subject selected to be dealt with under this head had to be unavoidably held over. It will appear next week.

Today we reproduce a special article from the Chicago Tribune, a leading white daily, which not only confirms the news published by us, but gives in greater detail the extent to which the awakening in Africa has reached and the peeking of the Black Man for political freedom in his own country. The Tribune's Article. "ST. LOUIS, Senegal, Aug. 25. — The name of Marcus Garvey, 'provisional president of the Republic of Africa,' and reports of fabulous financial backing by American Negroes, are being used in an attempt to forcent an uprising among the blacks of northern Nigeria, according to information reaching white river settlements in the French Sudan. "Garvey's proclamations translated in Arabic, have been circulated throughout Nigeria, and are being used to urge the natives to revolt against the British authorities in the northern provinces. In the southern provinces where thousands of Negroes have become English speaking, the propaganda is reported to be even more widespread, due to the awakening desire among the educated blacks to possess more of the white men's liberty and culture. Spread Propaganda. "The British have discharged telegraph and post office employees from the southern provinces who held jobs in the northern provinces because it was found that the southerners disseminated revolutionary doctrines. Other measures have been adopted in an effort to stamp out the spread of propaganda for a revolt, which was set for August. The French authorities in Nigeria, Dahomey and the Cameroons report that the population is legal and tranquil. "In the Sudan I found the Nigerian revolutionary movement among the natives, but not supported on account of religious differences. Among the Sudanese, both Musselmans and Pangara sewn black converts to Christianity, and all the Nigerian accultation is considered by them to be of Christian origin. "The French Catholic order of White Fathers has opened several cloisters in the French west and equatorial Africa, but no white Protestant missionary work has been tried. The French keep to their policy of not interfering with matters of native religion, morals and customs. Call Garvey a Saint. "Garvey is pictured as a great patron saint and an emancipator of the black race in propaganda credited with being of American origin. This propaganda has for its slogan, "Africa for the blacks," and refers to the capabilities of American Negroes who hold directing positions in educational, banking, political, commercial and transportation fields. It states that these Americans are ready and willing to supplant the white men who now occupy the controlling positions on the black man's contipent. In America the Negroes claim that prejudice prevents their racial development, and they erave an opportunity to develop a country of their own. "There is considerable to indicate that this propaganda may be as much antitribist as pro-black, and some East Indian and Egyptian independence influences are find their way from Abysinla and across the English Sudan to the affected territory in northern Nigeria. As usual, the Turks also are suspected. Propaganda reports the existence in New York of a supreme council, which is said to be composed of representatives of the black and yellow subject races of Asia and Africa who are trying to work for their common interest and to prevent elements of one subject race from being used as soldiers against another subject race. Eight Hundred Miles Up the Niger "These are some of the disturbing echoes which reached The Tibure's transe-Saharan expedition after 1,300 miles of travel from east to west French Sudan. From Timbuccu the expansion poted of paddled its way or was towled 800 miles to the Niger, which well deserves the name of the French Nile. Small experimental stations for cotton cultivation have been established along this rich river territory, which some day will produce France's entire cotton supply. I found one American cotton expert from the University of Arizona working for the French government, and he exhibited small experimental fields of cotton grown with American seed und cultivated with American machines after American tractors had cleared the heath. "The country abounds in peanuts, which grow side by side with cotton, and the French have a newly perfected motor which they claim uses peanut oil as fuel. Many Violent Storms "The swift river current impeded our upstream progress, which was further irritated by a number of violent torrential, and equatorial storms, accompanied by startling electrical activities. This is the height of the rainy season and the rivers in Nigeria have raised more than fifteen feet. In northwest Mopti the river Gaj 'left' the banks, imbuating vast areas on its sides. "The expedition crossed the great Niger basin, and in some places outsmall boat was entirely out of sight of land although in many regions the water was not more than four feet deep. "The storms were followed by intense humidity and heat. Our garments and beds were damped night and day, while the atmosphere was stifling hot, like the interior of a steam laundry. A nexious ground vapor rose from the steaming banks, spangled with tropical vegetation. Hordey of mosquitoes, flies, and gnats contributed to the discomforts of the exposition. We were constantly cleaning, disinfecting, and preventing destruction of photographic materials by juvenile guits. Buy Quinine by Pound "As we reached Koulikore we ran into a tornado, which increased the turbulence of the water, already foaming from it; passage through the Bamako rapids. One wave hit the stern of our boat and swept half our kitchen supplies overboard. "In purchasing supplies the expedition bought quinine by the pound, but we had to replenish our stocks at Niger, where yellow fever killed hundreds of natives during the rainy season at this time-last year. Of sixteen whites taken with the fever last year seven died within five days and were buried in a small plot near the town. Most of them were sturdy young French agricultural engineers engaged in assuring the future of France's cotton supply. "Crews and passengers of boats arriving in any town in the fever zone are subjected to close examination before being allowed to land. If suspected of having fever they are quarantined in midstream under armed guards. When the towninfo theme solves go into quarantine no whites or blacks are allowed out of the house at night when the mosquito bites my work."

Has Entered Politics for the Furtherance of Its Program—Urges Members Who Are Citizens to Take an Active Part in Politics and Those Who Are Not to Get Naturalized—Spoeches. Delivered by Hon. William Sherrill, Hon. R. L. Poston and Hon. Rudolph Smith LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday night, September 16. — Looking the picture of health. Hon. Marcus Garvey faced his first Sunday night audience since his release from prison and was given a rousing ovation. The hall, which is capable of accommodating about six thousand persons, was filled to capacity; every available seat was taken and the alces were crowded with rudeges, while around the doors and Jows hung a large crowd which was satisfied to look on even they could not hear the message. Then the Pillow at General brought this faithful flock after his absence on them. Three months ago Mr. Lively left a hand of followers of Universal Negro Inc. movement Association who, though none the less absurd for the cause, was synthetic towards him because of his having fallen within the clutches of the law, but who nevertheless were hopeful of and prayed for his deliverance. Tonight he returned to find them increased in numbers, more enthusiastic than before and more loyal than ever toward him, his sacrifice having convinced them of the sincerity of his leadership and his devotion to the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the uplift and betterment of the race. Mr. Garvey has lost none of the fearlessness that has characterized his leadership and which has sent his name around the world as the fearless champion of Negro rights and advocates of Negro government in Africa. The subject of his speech was "The Sign by Which We Conquer," and in the course of his remarks he commended the membership of the association for the perseverance and determination which they had manifested and which had brought about an entire change of feeling throughout the Nation. the world in favor of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Tonight, said Mr. Garvey, the organization that a few founded four or five years ago has become the talk of the world and has made such an impression on the world that statesmen everywhere, not only in America but throughout civilization, are worried as to the outcome; we, however, are conscious that the outcome will be nothing more and nothing less than an independent government for Negades. His improvement for three months, Mr. Garvey said, was one of the avenues through which we would get our program presented to the world, and he was not one bit sorry to contribute in that direction so agit to at least impress the world some more about the seriousness of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Further on in his address Mr. Garvey spoke assuredly of the resuscitation of the Black Star Line. His remarks on this point were witty and humorous and brought many laughs from the audience, yet they did not fail to strike home and impart the feeling that the Black Star Line, although temporarily appended, would again be revived and be of service to the race in the working out of the program for the redemption of Africa. Speaking of the plans of the association, Mr. Garvey said that since other organizations had used politics to defeat the program of the U. N. L. A. it was the purpose of the association now to enter into politics and to use politics as a plank in the platform. He therefore advised all those who are qualified to be active and get registered wherever they are. Those who are not citizens he advised, for their own convenience and for the convenience of carrying on the program to get naturalized. If the N. A. A. C. I. and Mr. Garvey, feel it can play politics with two hundred thousand and put one man in jail, we can play politics with two millions and get a dozen men in jail. The other speakers were Hon. William Sherrell, who presided as chairman; Hon. R. L. Poston and Hon. Rudolph Smith. Following is the text of the speeches. OPENING REMARKS OF THE HON. WILLIAM SHERILL The Hon. William Sherrill in opening the meeting said: "We are indeed glad to welcome to Liberty Hall this vast audience of black men and women who demonstrate by their presence that at least they are interested in the Negro and those things meeting the Negro. We simply want to say in welcoming you to this hall to-night that you are now in the forum of the New Negro. Our platform is brief and yet precise. We are simply Negroes who love white men, the love yellow men, we love brown men, but we love ourselves a little bit. (Applying.) We are Ne- gross who are proud of America, we are proud of England; we are proud of all countries and nationalities, but we are still preponder of Africa. Applause.) We are Negroes who believe that white people may be able to give us some assistance in working out our destiny; brown people may be able to give us some assistance in working out our destiny and yellow people may be able to do the same, but we believe that the ultimate working out of the destiny of the black man lies within the hands of the black man himself, in other words the Negroes represented in this organization simply represent black men who are thinking of black men first, everybody else second. (Applause.) If you feel that you would like such a program for your race; if you feel that you would be interested in the putting over of such a program for your race you are welcome not only to sit in this auditorium and listen to the many speeches that come from the platform from time to time, but you are welcome to come to this table and enroll. As I have said before, we have no password; we have no signs; we have no grips; the black in your face and this map in your hair is your grip and password. (Applause.) "God Bless Our President" Just at this time we are going to stand and sing "God Bless Our President." I feel that we can sing that with clear voices, for indeed God has blessed our President to the extent that again we have him in Liberty Hall with us on Sunday night. (Applause). The audience rose and joined heartily in the singing. Presenting the Hon. Marcus Garvey In presenting the President-General, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, to speak, Mr. Sherrill said; "God indeed, as the poet says, 'moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform.'" We, to-night, are still jubilant and soiling because of the fact that the founder of this great movement which is now shaking the world—in the person of the Hon. Marcus Garvey—has returned to us. Wanting a Leader For a long time the Negro has been wanting a leader—a real leader. Just before the Hon. Marcus Garvey appeared upon the scene the Negro was just about at the point where he was discouraged. He had about reached that point where he felt there was hardly any Negro who was absolutely honest and sincere as regards the interest of his race to the extent that he was willing to make every sacrifice, even to the supreme sacrifice for that race. The four and a half years that His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey has been in our midst has convinced Negroes not only in America, but Negroes everywhere, that indeed and in truth there has come among us one who is willing to make that sacrifice; one who is willing to year out his very life for the service of his people. It is indeed with pleasure inexpressible that I will now present to you the founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the leader of the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world in the person of His Excellency Hon. Marcus Garvey. (Vociferous applause.) HON. MARCO GARVEY'S SPEECH Hon. Marcos Garvey 'rose amidst great cheering and spoke as follows: My subject for tonight is "The Sign By Which We Conquer." Perseverance and determination on the part of any people lead ultimately to the goal which they seek. That you are here this evening and hundreds of thousands and millions probably of Negroes are so assembled in different parts of the world in mass meetings tonight carrying out the exercises of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is proof that perseverance and determination will ultimately bring about success for any people. A Changed Attitude Towards the U. N. I. A. When we started our movement a few years ago with just a few, the world of other men spurned us, laughed at us, and said that we were wasting time because we could not impress the world. Today that opinion has changed. It has been changed because of the perseverance of the few. and the determination of the few. They persevered long enough until they were able to impress not only their immediate community but attract the entire world. And tonight the organization that a few founded four and a half or five years ago has become the talk of the world and made such an impress on the world that statement everywhere, not only in America but throughout civilization are worried as to the outcome. We are conscious of ourselves what the outcome will be. The outcome for us will be nothing more and nothing less than an independent government for Negroes. (Applause.) It was that vision that attracted us five years ago, when just thirteen or a few more of us founded this organisation; it is the same vision that attracts us now, that we are six million organized; it is the same vision that will attract us until we have completely brought into the fold—if not in active labor, with sentiment and sympathy—the 400,000,000 Negroes of our race. (Applause.) The Effect of His Imprisonment. The Effect of His Imprisonment. My imprisonment for three months was one of the avenues through which we would get our program presented to the world; and I was not sorry one bit to contribute in that direction to at least impress the world some more about the seriousness of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. That impression of acerousness—the compliment of it is for you not for me, in that I was placed in a position that I could not help myself, more than to write to the world; but that could not move men. The impress that was made upon the world for the last three months was made by you—by your perseverance and by your determination. The world, knows that human achievements and human movements are carried on and conducted not by everybody but by the direction of those who lead, and the strategy of a few people has always sought to remove the leaders of movements and if successfully cornered they calculate they would destroy the movement. Experimenting With Garvey. Well; they were experimenting with me. They put me in jail to try out if they could destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association and then they found a greater Universal Negro Improvement Association. (An apology). Now I suppose they will change their tactics; nevertheless the three months has convinced me everywhere that the new Negro is here. Now what they did to me for three months with the intention of destroying the movement represented by me would have succeeded in another age, and another time prior to this. Ten years ago—twenty-five years ago if anyone attempted to start a movement as big probably as the Universal Negro Improvement Association and they did what they did to me, naturally as from the attitude of the Negro himself they would have destroyed the movement; but that wait—the time of the old Negro. They had the plan all right, but they worked the plan in the wrong time. If they had worked that plan ten years ago or fifteen years ago they would have succeeded, but they can- ANSWER DO U WANT TO FORGE AHEAD? Is your business undertaking bringing you net returns?

They is no doubt about it that the man who is doing right is never harmful of anything. I do not see why the world should be worried about the Universal Negro Improvement Association and worried about Marcus Garvey. If the world has not done anything to Negroes why should it be worried about the activity of Negroes. The world must know that we as a people are not seeking to create any disturbance—to affect the peace of communities and the harmony of races. We are not disposed that way. We are too appreciative of other people's rights to go out of our way to offend them.

Firp has smashed an American idol who wasn't idolised by Americans because he was a draft dodger and a willing Wills dodger. Were the black men who fought aide by side with white men in the Revov lutionary War, and in all the wars down to the great World War, American citizens? If so, why were they and their descendants treated as aliens, strangers, interlopers, and compelled to bag and plead with white men, their late comrades in arms and fellow citizens, for rights and privileges which are the constitutional guarantees to all citizens? What right has any group of white citizens to deny or withhold from any group of black citizens—all things being equal—the constitutional rights which they demand and enjoy as white citizens? This raises the question: are Negroes really citizens? If they are, why the Sandhdrin, the N. A. A. C. P., the U. N. I. A., the N. E. P. E. R. A., and the 401 other racial organisations that are clamoring for recognition as American citizens? When one is already a citizen, why should he still insist on being recognized as a citizen? The cold, frozen facts are that the Negro is no more an American citizen, except on paper, than he was before the fiction that he is was transferred to paper. The legal fiction proclaims him to be a citizen. We accept the fiction as fact by asserting and teaching that we are citizens merely because we have been placed in the attitude of citizens by certain legislative acts which neither the State's governments availing them nor the national government have had the moral courage to enforce. I don't believe that any living American Negro can establish, by written or oral argument, that he is as good a citizen in the sense that he has the same freedom of action and utterance, the same rights, privileges and immunities as his so-called white fellow citizen. If this can be successfully established then it is time to disband all organizations and to suspend all efforts now being made to make black the equal of white in social, religious, and political progression of the two races. We better stop talking about being American citizens until we are indeed and in fact American citizens. Just now we are merely beggars at the gate, a race without a country or a flag. I challenge any wise Negro American patriot to prove the contrary, and will give him two columns on this page to display his historical erudition and citie proved facts. If you are game, dig in! Captain E. L. Gaines (Daddy) and Nig Wm. Sherrill have been spilling the atmosphere of the capital of the State of Mind, and the habitat of the sacred cod and the juicy bean, for some time past. The captain, God bless his soul has been wrestling with the knotty problem which made John Jasper famous, viz. "de sun do move an de earth am square." I haven't heard the captain speak on this topic. I have only heard of it—and that he handles the question as skillfully as a man with rheumatism in the "jints" could do. The captain will do well before plunging too steeply into this subject, however, to take a trip around—not across—the world to get his hearings. He'll find the world just as round as his headpiece. In certain parts of Germany he may run across a few square heads, who think and feel as he does about the shape of the earth.

The people of Boston who have heard him are very much pleased with his optimistic and happy style. 'His logic is freestilistic and his extreme modesty commands our admiration. I was glad to hear this flattering compliment paid him' and I know that he will be sensible enough after he will have read it not to have the size of his hatband increased because of it. Compliments such as this sometimes have a disastrous effect on some public speakers, who forget to remember that "applause is only the stinking breath of the multitude," and they soon begin to imagine themselves to be modern Ciceros, or Haynes, or Fred Douglasses or Edward Everett. I am glad to note that up to date my friend Sherrill has not been obliged to carry his head in a saling, but is keeping it in its place on his shoulders, 'where nature intended it to be and stay. In this he shows wisdom and great common sense. He is building for the future a more solid foundation on which some day a really great Negro orator will stand to startle the world with his fiery eloquence and practical thinking. This boxfire oratory does not amount to three hurrahs in the heated hence. It is more noise, rot, bunk! Sherrell is a young man yet, and if he keeps his head he will make of himself one among the really great Negro orators of the future. A common bedbug or a dog flea can rouse more commotion in one minute if rightly placed than any other insect doing business in the United States. Size doesn't count, but its the way one dig in. Dig in! Mr. A. H. Grinke, replying to the question as to what he thought of the Garvey movement, said: "I am against it because it hurts our cause." This is a most regrettable piece of news. The Garvey movement ought to stop hurting our cause. And pray what is our cause? Negroes in certain parts of the country appear to be losing weight and sleep because President Coolidge appointed C. B. Slemp secretary to the President, or some such job. I do not think and I refuse to believe that there is any good reason in this arousal of Africa over Slemp, or that there is absolutely any danger of the slempification of Coolidge from contact with Slemp, an appointee who is to take, not give, orders to his employer. Mr. Coolidge is a clever enough tactician, we hope, to examine very carefully the lay of the board before making a move. Clever chess players always watch their step and the king row. Last Sunday afternoon at about 10 p.m. the author of the "Fledgling Hard," George R. Reginald, Margotson Esq., poet, philosopher, vegetarian good fellow generally, and the only Negro literary person I have ever known or heard of who was ever held up on the public highway at the point of a gun, as he was recently, and ordered to hand over his wallet—or else—came to my lodgings in North Cambridge and transported me to a car to Liberty Hall, in Rockbury, where I found an atmosphere akin to that of old Liberty Hall in New York city. The Uniformed Nurses, Legionaires, surplied chair and band and all the other uniformed branches of the organization functioning with intelligent precision. I was treated with the utmost courtesy by officers and members who seemed pleased to have me in their midst. I was perfectly tractable while there and we were all happy. The president of the division, a splendid man, the personification of courtesy and hospitality to the stranger, left nothing undone that ought to have been done to make my visit enjoyable and memorable, and all the rest were enjoyed every minute I was present. The short talks of the speakers, the fine singing by the choir, the incomparable band and especially the way the leader of it handled and blew the trifonbene; he was the proudest man in the band and all the rest were jealous of him. When the president announced that there was a cry from Garveybiama for help toward making up the amount of his bail, $25,000, there was a rustle in the hall and in a few minutes coins and bills were tossed from the galleries to the floor by those eager to show their sympathy for our highest available defendant. The ushers passed the baskets and in less than twenty-five minutes $75 was added to the sim, which was at that moment being raised by every division of the U. N. I. A. throughout the United States. How can such a movement be beaten when such order and system prevails at the very moment its enemies raise their little hatchets to chop it down? What other Negro organization can raise $25,000 cash ball in so short a time as the U. N. I. A.? Better stop treading on the U. N. I. A. or it will sting you and sting you hard I am deriving great benefit from the salt air of this section and I am hoping soon to return to the big city somewhat improved in health, and later to make a visit for the purpose of comparison to all the divisions throughout the country. The Boston Division is going to be hard to duplicate. It is a body of hard-headed, practical Negroes whose eyes are on the mind chance. I saw them looking at it when I was in their midst. They are going to have some kind of a business going in Boston in less than a year and they are going to make it up. When black men and women look at an determined as these do it means they are going the bank, and you better not bother them. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1923 INTERESTING INTERVIEW GIVEN BY MR. WARE ON MIGRATION OF THE NEGRO To Make His First Appearance in America at Lafayette Theatre All This Week The Coleman Brothers, managers of the Lafayette Theatre, are sure enough out to secure the very best for the patronage of their theatre, in that they have booked our Negro hero of France, whom we have read so much about, who will appear for the entire week. We should be very glad of such considerat on on the part of Sikl for giving his fellow race men first chance of meeting him, for in doing this he has created admiration in the hearts of every Negro in New York. Therefore, let us journey toward the Lafayette this week and give Batting Sikl the glad hand. Other noted Negro fighters will make their appearance also. LIBRARY NOTES In the September magazines, which have come to the library reading-room members of this community are represented, "The Century" has a poem "My City." by James Weldon Johnson, while Eric D. Walbrook has contributed an article on Negro migration to "Current History." His article appears with one by Marcus Garvey and one by Judge R W. Winston, of North Carolina, and the magazine announces the three articles as "a symposium approaching the Negro question from different angles." You will find the discussion worth reading. Mr. Weldon has also a story of Negro life in the September "Smart Set." A copy of this story may be had in the reading-room. The art exhibit continues to attract visitors. Several paintings by Mr. E. Harleston, of South Carolina, have been added to the collection. Notwithstanding the alarm from various sources picturing the future in the North as being bad and the unattainable climate for the Negro, the loss of jobs and the pain of hunger andprivation, he continues his pilgrimage. Thousands are going every day and labor agents become more active as the reports of bad conditions are emphasized. The Southern Negro seems more determined in his program than any he has engaged in. His attitude takes the form of a portion of the present marriage vow: "For bitter or for worse." Somehow he has continued himself that it can be no worse, and if a little worse, he would rather be among strangers punished than among his supposed friends. Happening, to meet Mr. William Ware, president of the Chincinnati Division of the U. N. F. A., and whose keen interest in all that affects his race is so well known, a representative of the Negro World asked his opinion on the burning question of the South just now—the continued migration of the Negro. "The present exodus of Negroes from the South," said "Mr. Ware, "marks a great evolutionary epoch both in the history of the Negro and in that of the United States. "There is something so remarkable in this sudden flight of the Negro, from what his former economic masters term's his "natural home," that everyone has been struck with wonder by the courage exhibited by those who have holdly determined to seek new soil in which to develop the better instincts of their race. The Negro forced by conditions that have become intolerable in the sight of even conservative citizens, migrating to lands where he might be permitted to work out his own destiny unmolested, a movement has commenced which assumes many strange aspects, the leading feature of which is that the Negro migration is being accomplished without a Moses and without a Joshua. "The only friction occurs when Negroes are forced to settle in contested areas, usually the former aggregated districts of the larger cities. It is not the fault of" the Negro that fate has forced him into insanitary dwellings and that he is compelled to live as no white man would ever dream of living. It is strange, though, that in spite of the fact that the laudable purpose of the migration is plain to even anti-Negro elements, the Negro is exploited mercilessly at every turn he makes. "When one acts to these conditions, the increasing number of injustices the Negro has been forced to endure both before and since the migration. It is not surprising that the Negro should be termed a source of unrest which appears to multiply so rapidly in the United States. I have on my file many grave instances of deliberate abuse of the Negro by certain railroads whose agents had persuaded them to leave the South, promising larger pay and improved conditions of living. When the railroads had the men, where they wanted them, they deliberately went back on their promise, in some instances not paying as much as the Negro had been getting on the farm in the South. I will also one instance alone that illustrates the many-causes for unrest that such intorests directly are responsible for Laqt wint, our league housed and fed 12 men between the ages of 18 and 25 who had been brought by a great railroad to work on one of its lines near Cincinnati.

Queens Mail Order House L. O. JAMAICA, N. Y. Paris." Aug. 20.—Follicle action has halted the presentation of D. W. Griffith's picture, "The Birth of a Nation," when the management of the Salite Marlvaux were ordered to suspend prosecution on the grounds that the film had been adjudged "disturbing to public morals." This renews the racial controversy that has swept Paris for several weeks, causing a Montmartre cabaret to close because of the all treatment of two colored patrons. The police prefecture's decision to ban the film was based upon the scenes showing negroes undergoing harsh treatment at the hands of whites. In announcing the ruling the police, who say they received orders from higher up, claim a fear that further clashes between the white and colored citizens might result if the picture is allowed to run. The film was submitted to the censors' three times last year, and again less than ten days ago, when important cuts were ordered, reducing the length of the film from 3,500 metres to 2,400 and changing one word in a subtitle. Thereupon its projection was authorized, and the house has been crowded, hundreds of persons having been turned away. Notled of the new decision, early this morning, the managers of the Marivaux found a squad of twenty detectives around the theater who ordered all posters advertising the picture torn down. As it cost the exhibitors 2,000,000 francs, frantic people have been made to flock, who replied that "The Birth of a Nation" probably would be banned indictedly in France. first pay they were astonished to find that the money was barely enough to live on, and so they let the employ of the road and came to Cincinnati, where we took care of them. I do hope that the city administration will do something to alleviate this distressing condition, for it certainly cannot bring good results. I am sure there are many public-spirited men and women who would be glad to help if these conditions were brought home to them. And I ask the press of Cincinnati to help our league in making these facts known before it becomes too late." "I have dozens of vases on the wherepoor Negro laborers' guest pay $10 a month for one room, which, were they able to see it who censure the Negro's impulse to live a better life would explain much of the vice that exists in Negro districts. A case came to my notice a few days ago in which a Negro family had been paid to pay a most cruel increase in the rent of the house in which they lived. They paid $22 a month for an inexpensive dwelling with not even a semblance of the conveniences so vital to city dwellers. Then the property changed hands and the new landlord raised the rent to $62. There is up place to move, and so they are forced to pay this extortation rent simply because the landlord is in a position to demand it. "Between Central and Freeman avenue, in the Negro districts, there are at least 3,000 children who are forced through circumstances to witness the vilest scenes and to hear indecent and shameful language every day in the year. The schooling they receive cannot undo the harmful knowledge they must come in contact with every day of their lives. Blind tigers, gambling dens, disreputable houses of all kinds and all in the very midst of a heavily populated district certainly do not tend to make for good citizenship. The streets are random cleaned, the sir is polluted at all times and vice courthouse—let it be said to the shame of those who could easily prevent it—in the everyday struggle for existence, and not, as our accusers say, out inherent perversity.

FRENCH NEGROES ORGANIZE KLAN French Negroes are banding them selves together into a sort of Ku Klux Klan to show the American tourists "their places." Negroes from the French colonies, who have come to Paris and other parts of France in large numbers since the war, are determined to combat the tactics of the Americans who refuse to frequent cafes and restaurants accepting Negro patronage. The self-appointed king kleagle of the French K. K. K. is Prince George Tovalon, a prominent physician, a hero of the World War and the son of the former King of Dahomey. Prince George has appealed not only to members of his own race, but also to Frenchmen, to stop the "outrages" of the American visitors. "If the whites in the United States see fit to organize a Ku Klux Klan to intimidate the Negroes, I don't see why we shouldn't have a similar organization to protect our rights. I am what they call the kling kleagle, and if any of my folk want to join my organization they will be most welcome. "But we do not intend to apply tar and feathers to Americans who insult us in this free country. We plan to apply the law. For that reason I have already caused trouble for two cafes frequented by bishopless Americans and intend to cause trouble for others who refuse to serve me just because the tourists object.

AFRICAN ORTHODOX EPISCOPAL CHURCH MAKING PROGRESS Wednesday evening, September 5, we saw the opening of another red letter day in the ecclesiastical history of the Negro peoples of the world, when the third General Synod of the African Orthodox Episcopal Church convened in the cathedral chapel of the Good Shepherd, 224 West 135th street, New York city. His Lordship the Rt. Rev. George Alexander McGuire, D.D., M.D., bishop and primate, attired in his episcopal robes, attired and ponifin all evening, which was sung by the Rev. Fred. A.

The synod remained in session for six days and six nights and consumed its work with the closing services, at which Miss Marie Montague, founder and president of International Humanity League, spoke, which were held in the Renascence Casino, 818th street and Seventh avenue, New York city, as the cathedral chapel was not large enough to hold the crowds attending these sessions. A few items of note legislated on by the synod was the election of a second bishop for the African Orthodox Church, when the Rev. W. E.

The usual Sunday afternoon meeting of the Philadelphia Division, Universal Negro-Improvement Association was called to order on September 2, at the Salem Baptist Church, on Twelfth street. Despite the continued uncomfortable hot weather, there was a representative gathering, eager and anxious for any news that might come from the parent body, New York, and especially of the release of the President-General. After the song service and local speakers, Mrs. Rosa Lamink, of New York, organizer for the Women's National Civic League of America, was introduced, Mrs. Lamink spoke in glowing terms of Negro womanhood, bringing in some very timely advice to both women and men. Women of Mrs. Lamink's type, with her personality and public, spirited ambition, should be more numerous in our race; and now is the time for them to show their mettle. Dr. Francis Speaks Business Meeting Called A business meeting was called for Tuesday night, Sept. October 4. At this meeting we saw the largest gathering of members (all financial) to be seen at such a meeting in months, if not years. What we weary want to point out here, however, is the spirit of democracy that prevailed at this meeting. The president does nothing without the full consent and cooperation of the others and members, which is the explanation for the absence of treason in the division. The peace, harmony, law and order that prevailed at this meeting have given food for thought, in that to conduct business with any large group of people has clearly always resulted in "tap." UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION Pursuant to the authority vested in me in the President Negro Improvement Association, and because of my inability to actively continue my administration of the affairs of the Association through my office, I hereby notify you that I have named and appointed the following persons to educate as the Executive Committee of Management of the Association until its next International Convention when the proper election and appointments will take place: WILLIAM SHERRILL, 2nd Asst.

Movements may come and movements may go, but the movement inaugurated by the Universal Negro Improvement Association will go on forever. Any person doubling this declaration need only pay a visit to the mass meetings now being held at Carpenter's Hall in Oakland, California. The most chronic critics and faultfinders are beginning to recognize and admit the powerful influence of this great organization, individually and collectively. Last Sunday afternoon went on record as one of the best mass meetings held since the monster protest meeting of July 15th. An unusually interesting program was rendered. Vice-President L. A. Brown was the first speaker to address the audience. His opening remarks were: "T believe that every day in every way the U. N. I. A. is getting better and better." It is this attitude of loyalty and faith that confounds and literally overwhelms the enemies. One significant development particularly noticeable is the spirit of Garveyism actuating the younger folks. Determined to keep the colors flying through toughness prevented their instructor from meeting them, a carefully prepared program was arranged by Miss Ruth Clark, a diminutive and energetic little madman, that awakened and dispersed all doubts of the skeptics. The first number announced by the juveniles was a recitation by Miss Mary Clark, entitled "It Couldn't Be Done." and all agreed that the logic was very good. (For he buckled right in with a bit of a grin and tackled the job—and he did it.) The next contribution was a pleasing instrumental selection by the organist, Miss Geraldine Inman. The climax of the young people's program was an original recitation by Miss Edmonia Johnson, "I Believe in the Garvey Movement from the Beginning to the End." This number received vigorous and continued applause, and seemed to properly set the stage for the balance of the meeting. "Liberty" was the title of a soul-sitting recitation by Miss Ruth Clark, which was highly appreciated. For a fitting conclusion Master Joseph Johnson was called on, and nobly responded with one of his favorite selections that have won for him a host of admirers and friends. Lady Vice-President Mrs. Letha Bush then made some very encouraging remarks pertaining to the work outlined for the women of our race. Mrs. Leona Ellis read from The Negro World the President-General's appeal to all members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to line up for a united political program behind the parent-body for 1923-24. Mr. W. A. U. Deane, of the Panama Division, was introduced and chose as his subject, "The Nationalism of the Negro and the Effect of Garv雁 All Over the World." Mr. Deane proved his loyalty and respect to America by asking the audience to stand with bowed heads for a period of two minutes in honor of the deceased chief executive, Warren Gamaliel Harding. A speaker of exceptional oratorical attainments, dignity and composure, he held his hearers intensely interested and enraptured by his eloquent portrayal of historic facts. So vividly were the truths of Hon. Marcus Garvey's persecution revealed that a spark of opensity was kindled in the most hardened heart and the cruel injustice relentlessly exposed. A beautiful peroration was made, when, in reciting the illustrious martys of the past, the name recorded on the scroll of time, the name of the indomitable champion of Negro liberty, Hon. Marcus Garvey, would appear in letters of burnished gold, high and above all the rest, as the greatest leader of the age. (Cheers and prolonged applause.) Several new members joined as result of his irresistible appeal, in which he volunteered to pay for the first person responding. The happy handshakes, congratulations and indorsements of our program for recial solidarity handsomely rewarded all so fortunate as to attend. ARTHUR S.

After a brief silence of a few months Chapter 1 of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, New York, held a large mass meeting at Derrick Memorial Church, 262 West Sixty-second street, and so great was the enthusiasm manifested that the organiser, Mr. J. E. Samuel's, who presided, directly made use of the opportunity by laying down the foundation for the continuance of the great work which was in progress just a short while before. The members and friends of the organization seemed to have taken on a new spirit for not only spiritually did they demonstrate this, but by giving tangible expression of their sincerity, in that they contributed to the different appeals made to them without the least bit of effort on the part of those who were in charge of that end. As in the case with every work that is honest in its origin, honest in its motive, in its progress, and honest in its ultimate results, the Universal Negro Improvement Association has made such a marked inroad on the conscience and reason of the people of the community that it was with much difficulty the past officers were able to stave off those that were desperately clamoring for the revivification of the great work in their immediate locality. Although there has been many arrows directed at this, the only twentieth century organization for the Newo (not Colored) peoples of the world, the members of the race everywhere look and acclaim the Universal Negro Improvement Association as the only organization in which they can trust their destiny. Nothing is more easy than to criticize, and were they warranted we would have welcomed them; but as they are the result of morbid minds frretted with petturance and influenced by the rancorous animoities of envy and foliage, we cannot but meet the attacks of these agitators on the vantage-ground of public opinion, and so perceptible have been our victories within recent weeks that the clemand for the fostering of the doctrine of Garveyism is becoming more and more pronounced. It is better to attempt to stop the onward flow of the mighty sea than, in like terms, to check the great onrush and progress of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, as this was manifested by the awakened Negroes at the resuscitation of their work last Sunday at the above-mentioned church. On this proptious occasion the special speaker was the Hon. Rudolph Smith, third vice-president, who capably explained the aims and objects of the movement, and in an address brimful of educating remarks, he gave a geographical survey and a historical description of the great continent which "Colored" folks don't want to hear anything about and which, on the other hand, is baffling white people who are trying day by day to tighten their hold on her.

Mr. Jarrett stated the motive prompting us to call these meetings, and among other things showed the urgent necessity of calling upon the most influential and intelligent Negroes to lay definite and lasting plans for the successful carrying through of the program that shall be mapped out. Mr. W. A. Petruga spoke, showing his pleasure at meeting no many intelligent men of the race, and was impressed in believing that a civic note had been struck, and that a candle had been lighted which we hope by God's help will not be easily put out. Comparisons were made with this division and that of Port Limon, referring to the progress of that division in relation to the financial ventures they have made in the planting of a respectable institution and a paying concern affording at the same time an agreeable meeting place for all grades of Negroes, with consideration for their social differences. That we are aiming at doing the same thing in Squirrels with the intention of making it the mecca of a social center for Negroes of every hue and color, where the benign influence of association will afford its advantages to such an extent that even the other races shall award us that amount of respect as we shall merit. Plans were made for selling part of the lands of this division, as also to levy a tax on all members to solicit loans, and as a result the augmenting of the present membership so as to raise the necessary funds to carry through the building proposition. These several points were discussed in detail by Messrs. Bins, Shaw, Mowatt, Stewart, Hoyt, Mull and Smith. A vote was taken on the issue, which was unanimously carried and which will be submitted to the general membership for approval thus bringing to an end an enjoyable evening well spent and not easily forgotten. MORON DIVISION IS FORGING AHEAD SATISFACTORILY MORON. Cuba—It is a pleasure to state that Moron Division is forcing its way through. I can assure you that 80 per cent. of its members are loyal. Therefore the 10 per cent. can go and hang themselves. Like Judas As Nogues we are trying to show ourselves to the public and to the other rites, that the N. L. A. has come to stay, and without flattering or gas a foundation of our work will be left. In spite of the heavy downpour of rain on August 21 a plenice was held. Although not a financial success, yet we feel that success cannot come to us at all times, especially when unprenuptious conditions intervene. Our programme to December is as follows: September 3 was our third anniversary, which was celebrated then, Sunday, November 15, harvest festival service and on Monday, November 19, will be sales of the offerings. December, 17 to December 22 there will be a ladies exhibition to which all the ladies of Moron Division and others will be allowed. Compete, irrespective of their connection with the division. Any information that non-members are interested of will be furnished by Mrs Leonor Osborne lady president. On December 25 there will be a day at night point at the Happy Repose" at which Baxter Band of five pieces will discourse the latest hits. One behalf of the division I beg to convey to the parent body and the many divisions of the association our sincere good wishes. R. C. RUSSELL.

PEPT. RIBS, CITY 1400 Santiago' division held a grand feite in honor of our leader's birthday on the 17th of August. Nearly all the members turned out, to do honor to the greatest Negro of modern times. We had our convention on the 29th and 30th of August, and our efforts were crowned with unprecedented success. Convention was opened in the usual way and was followed by spirited addresses. Among the speakers were our noble and popular delegate to the Guantanamo division convention, Sororita Rufellina Tomas, who spoke with such eloquence that we feel that we have in her a second Henrietta Vinton-Davis. She spoke on the aims and objects and demonstrated beyond the shadow of a donor that she is perfectly cognizant with the purpose of this great organization. The next speaker was the delegate from the Cuban chapter, Senor Felix Machado, who kept the house spell bound with his aidout and caret plea for a better understanding among Negroes regardless of language or country. "Arlegan," he said, "could only be redeemed when all the Negroes of the western world cast aside their petty jealousies and fear of each other and come together in one solid block, speaking as one man." Santangue division takes this medium of thinking the various divisions throughout Cuba for their kind thoughts and cooperation. MERIGOLD DIV. HOLDS ITS CONVENTIONBEFOREBLACK AND WHITE AUDIENCE The Mergeold mission of the Universal Negro Improvement Association held its local convention on August 20 and 21. Being the first of its kind to be held in Mergeold the convention attracted the attention of many of the white audiences. The meeting was called to be by the Key, S. Humphrey, Vice President, followed by a reception by the clergy. The meeting were then declared open and in order for business, by I. E. A. Newsam. Several items on the record were gone through in a quiet and businesslike manner, after which inspiring addresses were delivered. The Hon. S. V. Robertson, commissioner for the States of Louisiana and Mississippi, was present and explained the objects and aims of the presentation on advance and future war before an audience of over 1,000, a great many of whom were members of the white row. Subjected to the honor, was a great speech and we were terminated to present to them a this downtrend of one of the deemed FEEL YOUNG, LOOK YOUNG AND BE YOUNG Science Discovers New Home Formula Superior to Gladiolus Superior to Gladiolus "Tep" is that quality more inclined for social and business success than any other.

Ford, general secretary of the Puerto Cortes division, La Curva, in a letter to the News editor, flays the so-called Big Negro, who, he claims, are sudly lacking in racial consciousness. Instead of working for the uplifting of the race, they spend their time knocking those who are doing their heat for the race. They hurl accusations at the officers in order to discourage the members. Mr. Ford continues, as follows: "I call upon such friends with the spirit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to pay no attention to what they are doing. Your propaganda, my friends, is against yourselves in the present, against what you have said in the past, and will nantly be a stimulating block for you in the future." "I call upon you," my friends, to maintain your honor, your loyalty, to sustain the organization that you have said is dearest to your soul, and for which you promised to die. "Where are you today? You are trying to mar the progress of the very division in which you labored, and for such actions you can be treated no otherwise than as traitors, but, my friends, this is not the time to fawn, the softness of flattery will not do for improvement. "Now that the parent body more than ever needs your co-operation, as loyal members, to carry on the atm and objects of our organization and the pride of its founder. Now that he is in the Tombs, there deprived of his liberty, for your and my future settlement, as the greatest and most Negro leader that ever lived, spite of what any may say, he is satisfied to give himself in service for our great work, and our prosperity. Therefore, my friends, the noblest friend we can pay him and to the parent body is to give all the help possible to carry on the work of the I. N. L. A.-a. work that is not an easy task and that needs the support of every member of our noble race.

Some people say the Black Star Line has failed. Now, stars don't fall every day. (Laughter). Like the gun, some times they go into collapse, but they come again, don't they? And sometimes they shine more brilliantly than at other times. And when the Black Star Line comes back she is going to shine far ever more. (Deafening applause). The Black Star Line is the rising hope of a race. And we have placed that star in the firmament of stars. And the Black Star Line shall only fall when the great firmament of stars has passed away. Don't be discouraged. We have been temporarily embarrassed because we did not know ourselves. Believe me, I did not know the Negro when I started to work with the Negro, I had a mistaken notion of the Negro. I believed all Negroes felt like me. What I suffered from the other fellow, what I went through at the hands of the other fellow I thought every Negro went through the same suffering and hardship and felt like me. But all Negroes did not feel like us. We have to part ourselves. And the big mistake we made in the Black Star Line was that we believed when we started everybody felt that us. But we now know we have a lot of sorting to do, and once bitten we shall be twice ally. So that those of us who are stockholders in the Black Star Line, you need not lose heart. And I trust none of you will tear up your stock certificates or give them away, because these very stockholders think little of you. will turn up like the German mark twenty years from now. You cannot keep a good thing down. You cannot destroy a good thought. You cannot destroy great minds, great characters. The whole world laughs at Germany now because the mark is low, but the German mind is not low. The whole world of curious, foolish people laughed at the Black Star Line, but the mind of the black man is still active and infallible. Before you can successfully destroy the Black Star Line, even as before you can successfully destroy German activities, you must destroy the minds of men. Imprisonment cannot destroy that. You cannot destroy the mind. You can only imprison the body. The mind is ever active. Gotten Away It is impossible at this time to tell any person in the world to hold the minds of the twentieth century Negro. They may as well keep us out of jail as in jail. The thing has gotten away from them. You know we told them. The more you look, the less you see, and they were looking in one direction and not in the other. They thought Garvey was the whible show. (Laughter). But they did not seem to know that we have some Garveys scattered all around, and all of them are not in America either. The most of them are now in Africa and raising hell down there. (Loud applause). That man remember this. You all this time can only be destroyed by ourselves. Then within and not from without. You have reached the point where the victory is to be won from within and can only be lost from within. The time has come when we have, as I said a while ago, to sort ourselves. I have been placed recently in a very embarrassing position. I have no secrets to keep from you or anybody. I like frankness, honesty of expression of thought and deed. I calculated when I started this movement that we would have worked together and kept our own counsel as a race of people without mixing much with other folks, without going to other folks, and I was successful in keeping tb that policy up to three months ago. I calculated that not until the proper time had we to approach the other fellow and tell him what we wanted. That time naturally would come. We could not do everything on this side of the Atlantic without ultimately telling the white man what we want. But I believed the time had not come yet. I do not believe. In doing anything, prematurely and I calculated we would have just worked among ourselves until we were ready and then gone to the other fellow and said, 'We are ready, and we are asking you to let us come to terms and get this thing done.' But apparently, some of our folks are forcing us to talk with the other fellow before the time comes. The U. N. I. A. New Attitude "You know we are in a white man's country, not a black man's country. That is our disadvantage, and you can't very well move around the other fellow's country without telling him what you are doing. He becomes suspicious. And we have been moving around for all these years not even paying the other fellow the compulsion of letting him know what we are doing. And, because of that, others went and lied and told what we were not doing and got me into a pickle and you in a bad fix. Every fellow believed he was doing a great deed when he started to talk and tell. Well, there are two sides to a story. They told and they thought by telling they would have done us a great deal of harm. They caused me to be sent to jail for five years and caused you to have to put up $25,000 to get me out. But they alone are not going to do some of the talking, too. It is going to be tell for tell. You understand, what I mean. Our people are so wicked to themselves, that they are not satisfied until they are telling the enemy something about themselves. And because they have resorted—the N. A. A. C. P. the African Blood Brotherhood, the Friends of Negro Freedom—because they have resorted to telling the white man what they do not know about the Universal Negro improvement Association for the purpose of destroying us, we are notools to keep our mouths closed, but we are not going to tell about them as they told about us. We are only forced to approach the white man quicker than we anticlimated. We were only going to approach him when we were fully organized, but we cannot wait until that time, because if we do, the enemy will destroy us. So if you see me talking to white folks now, you will know what for. Politics to Count "I am not going to let Du Bois, Weldon Johnson, or Pickens, or Randolph or Owen lie the Universal Negro Improvement Association out of its purpose of emancipating a race, redeeming a motherland. That means, we are going to play politics, too. And I am going to ask something of you. I did not intend to ask you so early, because I felt the time had not come yet. I was hoping in two, three, four, five or six years, politically, we would go to the President of the nation and to the different parties, the Republican and the Democratic, and say, 'Our program is six millions of us want to go back to Africa. We want you to make it a plank in your platform.' We wanted to do that in six years' time. But they are forcing it on us now. I am saying to you now: 'Get registered wherever you are.' If you are not citizens, for your own convenience and for the convenience of carrying on the convention you must get naturalized. It won't do you any harm. It will do you a great deal of good, because when the final time comes, we are not going to beg this question, we are going to force it. And if the N. A. A. C. P. feels they can play politics with 200,000, we can play politics with 2,000,000. If they can get one man in jail with 200,000, we can get a dozen men in jail with 2,000,000. So now you quite understand if you see us talking to white folks and bringing them here, you know what we are up to. It is because the other fellow is trying to undermine the cause. And, remember, we are in a white man's country. That is why we have to play this game. We are hoping the time will come when we will be able to deal with our folks other than through the white man. I may not be living then, but my son may be a judge. (Laughter.) My son may be a warden of the Tombs some day and he may lock the Tombs and throw away the key. (Laughter.) A Fight for All Time "I thank you for this good humor and I have to thank you for your deep and sincere interest in me. I have no doubt about that. I felt that you appreciated the little service that I had rendered, and I was in no way doubtful during the three months I remained in the Tombia, because you expressed that inter- est on me day by day. I must thank you for the she bounce you made to raise my bail bond so that I could be with you tonight and will be with you al- ways. We are still in this fight. Be excited, however, that if one general gives down in the fight, other genera- tives will then. It is a fight that must be brought on, and for a dog, not for a human friend, but for all things and I LADIES OF THE ROYAL COURT OF ETHIOPIA Universal Negro Improvement Ass'n INVITES YOU TO ATTEND THEIR Universal Fashion Show AND Historical Ball Royal Wedding of His Supreme Majesty Pharaoh Tut-Ankh-Amen of Egypt TO HER ROYAL HIGHNESS Bolenia Princess Royal of Abyssinia Universal African Royal Guard, Guard of Honor-Military Excort Thursday Evening, September 27 The Lilliputian Display of Children's Dresses and the Appearance of Gentleness in Evening Clothes, on Our Program This Year Will Be Sensational and Marvellous.

However, we have our little duties to perform and we called upon like good soldiers we like to face the smoke. The Way to Independence "I was talking to a group of young men this afternoon at the Y. M. C. A. and I tried to impress them with the sense of independence. I tried to appeal to their manhood. I tried to appeal to their pride. I tried to appeal to the race consciousness. It is unfortunate that we have a group of young men here in New York and in other parts of the world who receive their thinking tailor-made from other sources and who accept without question everything given them by the dominant race of the world. We are constantly speaking of ourselves as the poor defenseless Negro. We are not a poor people, neither are we a defenseless people. I tried to show them how powerful we would be if we were organized as a unit thinking and acting in the same direction. I tried, without making a propaganda speech, to point them to the way as outlined by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. You know the colored man is constantly saying, We are doing fairly well under the circumstances." Why the condition? Some of them say, "Considering the opportunity we have, I think we have done well." Why not a greater opportunity than we have? Some say, We would be better off today if it were not for the fact that we were once slaves. Why were we ever slaves of anybody? The Great Mistake "And that is the great mistake some of our leaders make. They date the history of this race from 1865 in the United States of America, when the Negro was like the white man from the beginning. If we are behind in the march of civilization we have no one to blame but ourselves, and the time has arrived when we ought to quit crying about the matter. One thing about us is we are hypnotized and mesmerized by the other man's psychology. And I said to these young men, "You have a right to question any kind of authority in the form of humanity; So many of us think that if Professor Hart of Harvard said we ought to occupy a certain position in the world we ought to occupy it, because Professor Hart has made a study of sociology, a study of the races. And and that does the student learn how to write. But a woman of our numbers must have learned Harvard and who have studied the University of Berlin, when they want to give us authority for some of their writings and weakened policy, quote them once. I told them they had a right to question any authority that intertwined with the independence of mind. Mind is supreme, and mind knows no dear, and mind knows no bar. If we could get four hundred million Negroes thinking in the terms of independence, thinking in the terms of nationhood, thinking in the terms of liberty, no force on earth could keep our race from succeeding. Not a Poor Race I say we are not a poor race. I say we are not a weak race, because four hundred million people never were poor in the sight of God nor in the sight of themselves if they realized the strength of unity. I will tell you, why we feel weak so much. The twelve million Negroes in America isolate themselves from the great number, and when they think of themselves just as twelve million and no more naturally they are weak. But the time has come when we must think of ourselves as a mighty and as a great race. We must remember our strength in the West Indies, we must remember our strength in Australia, and in Africa, and, remembering our strength, we can, if we are sincere, if we are determined and if we are persistent, move the world. Think, friends, what we have done in four and a half years. Think how we have changed the viewpoint of the world as concerning ourselves, and how we have even revolutionized our own thinking when it comes to ourselves. Today we are not afraid to question. Today we are not afraid to reject, whenever it falls to measure up to logic, whenever it falls to measure up to reason. The white man has recognized this fact, and he is fearing the consequence of unity of the four hundred million Negroes of the world. "Our hope rests, friends, in the spreading of the doctrines of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Tilere is no other way open for us. There is no other course. And that is our appeal to you from time to time—unity under the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. And, if this is achieved, soon we will be able to plant upon the hilltops of Africa the flag of the Red, the Black and the Green." (Applause.) Hon. Rudolph Smith's Appeal Hon. Rudolph Smith, Third Assistant President-General, was the next speaker. Requested by the chairman to take charge of the lifting of the collection, he prefaced his appeal with one of his characteristically fervent discourses, "As the Rt. Hir. Mr. Poston said," he told his hearers, "you do not want to hear any of us speak to you. You came to hear somebody else speak, and that somebody is going to talk, and when that Hir. roars it shall not be in lip service, but it shall come direct from the shoulder and make you realize now is the appointed time. Friends, when I stop to think of this laws mandated which shall be are identified, when justice is the goal of the proceeding at such great movement, which I hope may back in 1816 when a struggle of my race, came to the country and knowing the sufferings of his race, expired to Negroes irresponsible of nationality to stand up like other race groups and declare for themselves an independent nation, I say, "Barely" the time is at hand when Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hand unto God and princes shall come out of Egypt." The speaker then dwelt on the early vicissitudes of the movement and the trials and opposition that Hon. Marcus Garvey had to face, over all of which he triumphed and proved himself a man of unusual courage and determination. Marcus Garvey stood the test, for God had told him to go out and bring together the scattered sons and daughters of Ethiopia so that they might redeem their native land. For this, men were jealous of the great leader. But, with God showing him who were his standard-bearers, with God showing him who were the earnest and interested co-workers, nothing could stop the onward march of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Negroes everywhere were dissatisfied. It mattered not whether they came from the West Indies or from the United States. Negroes were dissatisfied. He hoped, the time would soon come when it would be unnecessary even to mention "West Indies" and "United States." But at present there were so many tricksters and schemers trying to advance their own selfish purposes that, he regretted, it was still necessary to emphasize that birthplace did not enter in: You must get a government of your own, Mr. Smith concluded. You cannot get it in the United States. This is a white man's country. You are not Englishmen; you are not Americans. FEET EXAMINED All Foot Alligments Treated. Fallen Arches Corrected.
