Paper Cover, $1.25 Address Book Dept., U. N. I. A., 56 West 135th St., or Mrs. Marcus Garvey, 133 West 129th Street, New York Surely the soul of liberal, philanthropic, liberty-loving, white America is not dead. It is true that the glamour of materialism has, to a great degree, destroyed the innocence and purity of the national conscience, but, still, beyond our politics, beyond our soulless industrialism, there is a deep feeling of human sympathy that touches the soul of white America, upon which the unfortunate and sorrowful can always depend for sympathy, help, and action. It is to that feeling that I appeal at this time for four hundred million Negroes of the world, and fifteen millions of Americans in particular. Solution of the Negro Problem There is no real white man in America who does not desire a solution of the Negro problem. Each thoughtful citizen has probably his own idea of how the vexed question of races should be settled. To some, the Negro could be gotten rid of by wholesale butchery, by lynching, by economic starvation, by a return to slavery and legalized oppression, while others would have the problem solved by seeing the race all herded together and kept somewhere among themselves; but a few—those in whom they have an interest—should be allowed to live around as the wards of a mistaken philanthropy; yet, none so generous as to desire to see the Negro elevated to a standard of real progress and prosperity welded into a homogeneous whole, creating of themselves a mighty nation, with proper systems of government, civilization and culture, to mark them admissible to the fraternities of nations and races without any disadvantage. Feelings and Sensibilities I do not desire to offend the finer feelings and sensibilities of those white friends of the race who really believe that they are kind and considerate to us as a people; but I feel it my duty to make a real appeal to conscience and not to belief. Conscience is solid, convicting and permanently demonstrative; belief is only a matter of opinion, changeable by superior reasoning. Once the belief, was that it was fit and proper to hold the Negro as a slave, and in this the bishop, priest and layman agreed. Later on they changed their belief or opinion, but at all times the conscience of certain people dictated to them that it was wrong and inhuman to hold human beings as slaves. It is to such a conscience in white America that I am addressing myself. Negroes Human Beings Negroes are human beings—the peculiar and strange opinions of writers, ethnologists, philosophers, scientists and anthropologists, notwithstanding. They have feelings, souls, passions, ambitions, desires, jut as other men; hence, they must be considered. Has white America really considered the Negro in the light of permanent human progress? The answer is NO! What Will Happen Men and women of the white race, do you know what is going to happen if you do not think and act now? One of two things: You are either going to deceive and keep the Negro in your midst until you have perfectly completed your wonderful American civilization with its progress of art, science, industry and politics, and then, jealous of your own success and achievements in those directions, and with the greater jealousy of seeing your race pure and unmixed, cast him off to die in the whirlpool of economic starvation, thus getting rid of another race that was not intelligent enough to live; or you simply mean by the largeness of your hearts to assimilate fifteen million Negroes into the social fraternity of an American race that will neither be white nor black. Don't be alarmed! We must prevent both consequences. No real race-loving white man wants to destroy the purity of his race, and no real Negro, conscious of himself, wants to die; hence, there is room for an understanding and an adjustment, and that is just what we seek. Let white and black stop deceiving themselves. Let the white race stop thinking that all black men are dogs and not to be considered as human beings. Let foolish Negro agitators and so-called reformers, encouraged by deceptive or unthinking white associates, stop preaching and advocating the doctrine of "social equality," meaning thereby the social intermingling of both races, intermarriages and general social co-relationship. The two THE SOLUTION OF THE NEGRO PROBLEM "CONSCIENCE IS SOLID, CONVINCING AND PERMANENTLY DEMONSTRATIVE" NEGROES ARE HUMAN BEINGS, THEY HAVE FEELINGS, SOULS, PASSIONS, AMBI TIONS AND DESIRES A NEW GENERATION OF NEGROES WILL ARREST THE ATTENTION OF THE WORLD extremes will get us nowhere, other than breeding hate and encouraging discord, which will eventually end disastrously to the weaker race. Some Negroes, in the quest of position and honor, have been admitted to the full enjoyment of their constitutional rights. Thus we have some of our men filling high and responsible government positions; others, on their own account, have established themselves in the professions, commerce and industry. This the casual onlooker, and even the men themselves, will say carries a guarantee and hope of social equality and permanent racial progress. But this is the mistake; there is no progress of the Negro in America that is permanent, so long as we have with us the monster evil-prejudice. Permanence of Prejudice Prejudice we shall always have between black and white, so long as the latter believes that the former is intruding upon his rights. So long as white laborers believe that black laborers are taking and holding their jobs, so long as white artisans believe that black artisans are performing the work that they should do; so long as white men and women believe that black men and women are filling the positions that they covet; so long as white political leaders and statesmen believe that black politicians and statesmen are seeking the same positions in the nation's government; so long as white men believe that black men want to associate with and marry white women, then we will ever have prejudice, and not only prejudice, but riots, lynchings, burning and God to tell what next and to follow. It is this danger that drives me mad. It must be prevented. We cannot allow white and black to drift unthinkingly toward this great gulf and danger that is nationally ahead of us. It is because of this that I speak and now call upon the soul of great white America to help. It is no use putting it off; the work must be done, and it must be started now. - Very Much Misunderstood Some people have misunderstood me. Some don't want to make tand me. But I must explain myself for the good of America, and for the good of the world and humanity. Those of the Negro race who preach social equality, and who are working for an American race that will in complexion be neither white nor black, have tried to misinterpret me to the white public and create prejudice against my work. The white public, not stopping to analyze and question the motive behind criticisms and attacks aimed against new leaders and their movements, condemn without even giving a chance to the criticised to be heard. Those who opposed me in my own race, because I refuse to endorse their program of social atrogance and social equality, gloat over the fact that by their misrepresentation and underhand methods they were able to have, me convicted and imprisoned for crime which they calculate will so discredit me as to destroy the movement that I represent, in opposition to their program of a new American race; but we will not now consider the opposition to a program or a movement, but state the facts as they are, and let deep-souled white America pass its own judgment. The Growth of Population In another one hundred years white America will have doubled its population; in another two hundred years it will have trebled itself. The keen student must realize that the centuries ahead will bring us an overcrowded and overpopulated country; opportunities, as the population grows larger, will be fewer; the competition for bread between the people of their FIRST EDITION GOING FAST THE BOOK AND OPINIONS OF I SEND FOR YOUR COPY NOW own class will become keener, and so much more so there will be no room for two competitive races, the one strong and the other weak. To imagine Negroes as District Attorneys, Judges, Senators, Congressmen, Assemblymen, Aldermen, government clerks and officials, artisans and laborers at work while millions of white men starve is to have before you the bloody picture of wholesale mob violence that I fear and against which I am working. The Power of the Mob No preaching, no praying, no presidential edict will control the passions of hungry, unreasoning men of prejudice when the hour comes. It will not come, I pray, in our generation; but it is of the future that I think and for which I work. Ambitious Negroes A generation of ambitious Negro men and women, out from the best colleges, universities and institutions, capable of filling the highest and best positions in the nation, in industry, commerce, society and politics! Can you keep them back? If you do so they will agitate and throw your constitution in your faces. Can you stand before civilization and deny the truth of your constitutoin? What are you going to do then? You who are just will open up the door of opportunity and say to all and sundry, "Enter in." But, ladies and gentlemen, what about the mob, that starving crowd of your own race? Will they stand by, suffer and starve, and allow an opposite competitive race to prosper in the midst of their distress? If you can conjure these things up in your mind, then you have the vision of the race problem of the future in America. The Solution There is but one solution, and that is to provide an outlet for Negro energy, ambition and passion, away from the attractions of white opportunity, and surround the race with opportunities of its own. If this is not done, and if the foundation for same is not laid now, then the consequence will be powerful, for the spoken sense of the Negro people and shocking to our civilization The Negro's Country The Negro must have a country and a nation of his own. If you laugh at the idea, then you are selfish and wicked, for you and your children do not intend that the Negro shall discomode you and yours. If you do not want him to have a country and a nation of his own; if you do not intend to give him equal opportunities in yours; then it is plain to see that you mean he is, even as the Indian, to make room for your generations. Contribution to America Why should the Negro die? Has he not served America and the world? Has he not borne the burden of civilization in this Western World for three hundred years? Has he not contributed of his best to America? Surely all this stands to his credit, but there will not be enough room, and the one answer is "Find a place." We have found a place; it is Africa, and as black men for three centuries have helped white men build America, such generous and grateful white men will help black men build Africa. Africa and America And why shouldn't Africa and America travel down the ages as protectors of human rights and guardians of democracy? Why shouldn't black men help white men secure and establish universal peace? We can only have peace when we are just to all mankind; and for that peace, and for the reign of universal love, I now appeal to the soul of white America. Let the Negroes have a government of their own. Don't encourage them to believe that they will become social equals and leaders of the whites in America without first on their own account proving to the world that they are capable of evolving a civilization of their own. The white race can best help the Negro by telling him the truth, and not by flattering him into believing that he is as good as any white man without first proving the racial, national, constructive mettle of which he is made: No Flattery Stop flattering the Negro about social equality, and tell him to go to work and build for himself. Help him in the direction of doing for himself, and let him know that self-progress brings its own reward. I appeal to the considerate and thoughtful conscience of white America not to condemn the cry of the Universal Negro Improvement Association for a nation in Africa for Negroes, but to give us a chance to explain ourselves to the world. White America is too big and, when informed and touched, too liberal to turn down the cry of the awakened Negro for "a place in the sun." MARCUS GARVEY. President-General. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. Youngstown, Ohio, October 2, 1923. A Panama Estimate of Marcus Garvey and American Justice THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS LOOKS TO AMERICA FOR CO-OPERATION White Plundering Brokers Received a Sentence of Less Than a Year After Pleading Guilty to Swindling Clients of $6,000,000—Disproportionate Sentences Make a Comedy of the Serious Crime of Fraud-Evil Star Instead of Black Star Enmeshed Garvey THE NEGRO'S PLACE IN THE NEW WORLD A. H. N. MARCUS GARVEY AND AMERICAN JUSTICE Under the above caption, the "Financial World" of New York, in a very impartial and highly equitable article comments adversely anent the maximum sentence handed out to Marcus Garey. Any one after listening to the masterly and impartial summing up of Judge Mack to the jury would have expected that in case the jury did find a verdict in favor of the Government—which they did—the maximum sentence would have been inflicted, and, least of all, by the same judge who charged the jury. But this is exactly what happened. We therefore heartily endorse the comment of the "Financial World," a powerful and influential periodical published in New York City, in comparing Garvey's, sentence with the one meted out to two Wall Street brokers who were charged with a similar offense, involving a sum six times in value to that it is claimed was collected in Black Star Line shares, and who, on being found guilty, were given sentences of a little less than one-fifth the compassions seen before. The article from the "Financial World" reads as follows: Striking contrast is drawn by the difference in punishment meted out in two notable cases of fraud recently concluded in New York City. Certain defects in our statutes which could well be remedied are indicated. Otherwise their tendency would go to encourage crime instead of to curb it, as is the intention of punitive laws. "Here we have Fuller & McGee. the Reading recently of the treatment of the Negroes and their being driven by the hundreds from Oklahoma and other places, reminds me of certain happenings in England in January and February, 1919, and which, when thought of together, go to show that the time has come in the Providence of God when the Negro must wake up to his responsibilities and seek his place in the new world. The unparalleled upheaval that has been going on for the last ten years, and which has shattered thrones, destroyed kingdoms and dissolved dynasties, are all pointing to the ushering in of a new world in which the Negro is bound to claim a place. The Negro is unquestionably one of the virile divisions of mankind. Certain members are strong, while one or more are weak. Thus the Mongolian branch of the human family, the branch which embraces the aboriginal peoples of the American continent, of the West Indies and the Pacific, has, as a result of contact with the Caucasian branch, all but melted away. Indeed it was the inability of the native Indians to withstand the remorseless rigor of the Spanish servitude that led Las Casas, Bishops of Chilpa, to importune Charles V. of Spain to substitute, as slaves, Africans for Indians. The system of Negro slavery, having been thus introduced into the West Indies, was subsequently extended to the American continent. Negro slavery, which began in Haiti as early as 1565, did not cease in all the islands of the West. Indies until 1868, when the Moret Act was passed in Cuba for the abolition of Cuban slaves. On the American continent it continued till as late as 1888, when Brazil gave freedom to her slaves. For nearly 400 years, then, the Negro in the Western Hemisphere has endured the storms, the stress and the shock of the most debasing of human tyrannies and villains. And that he did not merely survive but even ingrusted under its ruthless away, is manifest from the fact that today, in every part of the West Indies, he is immensely the dominant Meteor. And as the American continent itself he embraced this upward tendency. Those which upon the persecution of the slave an effective means of breaking and crushing that are miserable Negroes into the Jaw, has plundering brokers, who succeeded in getting away with more than $6,000,000 through their crooked bucket shop, receiving a sentence of less than a year, after pleading guilty in the State Court. "Over in the Federal Court Marcus Garvey, an intellectual Megro, did not fare so well. He was sentenced to Leavenworth for five years, after a jury found him guilty of using the malia to defraud his colored breathen in connection with the sale of the stock of the Black Star Steamship Line. "These disproportionate sentences almost make a comedy out of the serious crime of fraud. In the one case the loss amounted to $6,000,000. In the other, it did not come to more than $1,000,000. Yet it would appear as if, in the eyes of the law, that the greater the loot the less severe is the penalty upon conviction. At least this is how the victims of these frauds will feel. "In the same degree would appear the tolerance shown for the mentality behind fraud. The more stupid its nature the softer is the hand of justice. To lead people to believe he would establish a new Republic for them in Africa, as Garvey proposed, was more difficult than inducing people to buy stocks through them as did Faller and McGee. In this respect the black culprits' mentality was superior to that of the white rogues in Ludlow Street jail. Yet he gets five years while they receive less than a year. "As Garvey thinks this over he may conclude it was an evil star instead of a black star which omitted him in the Federal statutes." Panama Workmen been the most presented people on the earth, yet they have survived it all and today they are looking forward to the home which was given them by the Almighty 6,000 years ago. Will they obtain it? Yes! He, who gave it to them, "is not shack concerning His promise." After enumerating the cause of race riots in London, Cardiff, Barry and Liverpool, all West Indian Negroes in these places were interned and 140 deported. There were men, who had served the government in various capacities during the war. These had painful and heartbreaking stories to relate. One said: "The newspapers did not print what was due to us. They only printed what we did in self-defense. Not a minister, be a bishop, or a member of Parliament, in a sermon or in a speech, said a word in our defense; our homes were wrecked; our furniture thrown on the streets and burned; pools and chattels stolen from our homes; children of white women and black men were roughly handled and . . . A funeral procession of a colored man was broken up, the coffin kicked about, and the dead . . . A black man was closed into the sea and drowned. It was a reign of terror. They say that England is a white man's country, and Negroes must be kicked out." In commenting on the riots Sir Ralph Williams, a recent governor of Grenada, and once colonial secretary of Barbados, penned the following arrant nonsense to the Times. He says: "It is an undeniable fact that to almost every white man and woman who has lived a life among colored races, intimate association between white and colored is a thing of horror and yet this feeling in no sense springs from haired, between the races. The cause is far deeper. It is an instinctive certainty that sexual relations between white women and colored men revolt our very nature. But fairness to color demands that we should resit the position today. Large numbers of black and colored men have been gathered here without their women, and it is not wonderful that their possessions should run high after a long period of abstinence. These men now find white women of a certain temperament encouraging their attention, and allowing themselves to be known in perseverance and sometimes as AMERICA NEEDED President of Assembly Says U. S. Aid Vastly Important for Future of Mankind GENEVA, Sept. 29. After a month's session, during which the Greco-Italian crisis was passed through to solution, the fourth Assembly of the League of Nations adjourned today in an atmosphere of satisfaction. Speakers declared future hope was planned largely on collaboration by the United States, whenever it could be obtained, with the constructive plans of the League, even if America should never actually join. Dr. Cosmo de la Torrente of Cuba, President of the Assembly, declared American aid vastly important for the future of mankind. Spontaneous applause greeted this, and broke out anew when the Cuban stalwart said: "I hope that once an agreement is reached regarding the form and manner of their co-operation, we shall be able to welcome the representatives of that great American nation which gave birth to Washington, Lincoln, Wilson and Harding, that people which represents so powerful a moral and material force in the world and which for that very reason cannot, although it has not ratified the covenant, refuse the League its valuable assistance. "Until that day," he went on, "I trust that, just as American representatives recently collaborated in the settlement of certain questions, so when, other problems of world importance arise, in the solution of which the United States can assist us, we shall see them working side by side with us in that high faith and enthusiasm they have always displayed in every kind of disinterested endeavor." The Council for the League for the ensuing year is unchanged, except that Czechoslovakia was elected to take the place of China. This the Little Britten has achieved its ambition for a voice in the effective body of the League, which will comprise representatives of Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan, as permanent members, not subject to election, and the following non-permanent members chosen today: Uruguay, Brazil, Belgium, Sweden, Czechoslovakia and Spain. The draft of the proposed pact of mutual assistance among the nations, which provides for military aid when a signatory state is the subject of aggression, and which seeks reduction in armaments in proportion to the security the various countries may feel the pact affords, was discussed at length today. Because it embodied too vast and important a project to be hastily decided, the assembly voted to send the text to all governments, including the United States, for study. Article XVIII of the draft provides that the treaty shall come into force in North America when ratified by the United States, and the document stimulates that states not members of the League may adhere to the pact with the consent of two-thirds of the high contracting parties; also that a country may, with the consent of the Council, modify its conditional or partial adherence, provided it has reduced or is prepared to reduce its armaments in conformity to the provisions of the treaty. Henry Morgenthau, former American Ambassador to Turkey, will head a special commission appointed tonight by the Council of the League of Nations to supervise the status of a million refuences now concentrated in Greece and, for, whom a loan of about $20,000,000 will be floated by the Greek Government under auspices of the League. The Bank of England has promised to take £1,000,000 of the loan, and it is expected a large amount will be subscribed in the United States. wives. What blame to the colored men if they take advantage of it? And what blame, too, to those white men who, seeing these conditions, and loathing them resort to violence? Today every colored newspaper in every land where color predominates is seething with journalistic indignation, at what they deem to be the ill-treatment of their brethren, who have come over to aid us in the war, to the lasting will of our good relations. The foregoing remarks draw out a crushing reply in the "Times" from Mr. F. P. M. Hercules, a coedred man. Mr. Hercules is the editor of "The African Telegraph," published in London, and general secretary of the Society of People of African Origin. The reply is as follows: "To the Editor of the 'Times'— "Bir, my attention has been drawn to a letter appearing in your issue of THE GOLD COAST LEADER ASSERTS THAT ONE UNIVERSAL SPIRIT MOVES ALL AFRICANS EVERYWHERE TODAY With Larger Vision Than Any Other Leader He Is Solving the Problems of a Race—The Alleged Delinquency of Marcus Garvey Is a Mere Blind to Defeat the Great Racial Movement—Yet to Be Shown Africa Cannot Come Into Her Own Without the Shedding of Blood The American and other papers are full of the trial and conviction of Marcus Garvey, and we should be wanting in sincerity if we pretended that the matter did not interest us. At the same time there is no need to go into hysteria one way or the other. It is possible calmly to study the facts, and to deduce the lessons that may help the race. Marcus Garvey was the founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association of which he is the President-General. He promoted at the same time the Black Star Line, a shipping concern, which was intended to have supplied Africans at home and abroad with an object lesson in the way of industrial development and progress. Apart from certain vague and visionary aspects of his doctrines, he has preached in the main racial unity and co-operation, the reliance of the African upon himself in taking his proper place in world order, and the doctrine that whatever other men and other races can do that the African can do for himself. It is true there is nothing new in all this; but it is also true that he has driven these lessons home upon the African mind and sentiment with a vision and a force of character which his very enemies must, and do, admit. From this standpoint he appears to have made many enemies both within and without the race; and it is quite probable that without the former there would have been no trial and conviction of this singular character. He appears to have antagonized the Dufosfies, the Weldon Johnson's, the Chandler Owenes, the Pickenses and others of Afro-American public life between whom and him there has been a bitter feud for some considerable time. Marcus Garvey has represented to the world, rightly or wrongly, that most of these men are not true representatives of African interests in that they are put up by white philanthropists to thrust upon the African a line of progress that would make him perpetually the subservient tool of the white explorer. He points out that the funds by which their organizations are supported come mostly from white pockets, and that that becomes a danger and a snare to an independent attitude on the part of the group he denounces. He suggests that if the masses of our races accepted this view, there would be an job of these would be leaders. Hence the bitter antagonism between the leadership of Marcus Garvey on the one hand and of DuBois on the other. It appears that Du Bois considers that the ideas of Marcus Garvey are revolutionary, and that rather than help the race they may retard progress and the 14th instant over the signature of Sir Ralph Williams, who has served the Crown in the West Indies and in Africa. "Sir Ralph expresses the view that intimate association between black men and white women is a thing of horror to almost every white man or woman. Would it surprise Sir Ralph Williams or the British people in general to know that there are in South Africa 600,000 half-castes 'who are the offspring of white men and black women, and that a similar number of half-castes with a like parentage are to be found scattered over the various West India Islands. Are we to take it then, that Sir Ralph's fine sense of honor and delicacy is not shocked at the intimate immoral association between white men and black women? Speaking as a man of color, I might say that I am volging the feeling of my own race when I decide that my whole mind revolts against the seduction of my women and girls by white men. Young girls of 15 and 16 years of age used to gratify the base-lust of white educators and left with half-caste children on their hands to motivate the "honor" of the civilized white man. "I do not believe that any excuse can be made for white men who take the law into their own hands because they say they believe that the association between men of my race and white women is degrading. "Sir Ralph Williams and those who think like him should remember that writing in this way gives a stimulus to those racial riots and can have only alienate the sympathies of the ruling classes. Beyond this we are not aware that there is any intrinsic difference as to the promotion of African welfare between the two leadership, except that Du Bois is seeking to solve the problems of the Afro-American merely, while Marcus Garvey widens and takes in universally the whole race. And the larger vision, we are persuaded, must command greater attention and interest. He is blind, he is deaf, who cannot see or hear that one universal spirit moves all Africans everywhere today, and that is for the African to take his right and true place in the economy of life. That place, as has been pointed out, is not to remain the serf and the burden-hearer of the world, to be tossed about by the whims of governments and economic exploiters, but to stand up as a man, demanding and receiving manhood rights. This being the issue which transcends all others, the significance of this trial consists in a consideration whether of set purpose the alleged delinquency of Marcus Garvey is made a mere blind to defeat the great racial onward and upward movement. We are afraid that the majority of thinking folk, both within and without the race, would be inclined to regard it as such. And that is the trouble. When a whole race makes up its mind to move onward and upward, not all the powers of hell, we conceive, can stop it. As for the revolutionary intentions charged, they seem more sentimental than real, more theoretical than practical. For it has yet to be shown that the African cannot come into his own without the shedding of blood. Garvey appears to have been indicted under the postal laws of the United States for conspiracy to use the mail to defraud, for which he has been convicted. There were twelve counts, but only one was proved, and according to some of the reports of his honesty was unassailed, "his good judgment alone impugned." But whatever view he accepted, it is unfortunate that he was refused bail upon his appealing from the judgment of the court, which, according to his counsel, within his experience of twenty years of the American bar, was never known to be refused, even in cases of murder of the second degree. This may lend weight to the view of some that he has been persecuted rather than prosecuted, and it may be hoped that the petition to the President of the United States will have such a result as to free the Federal Government from being considered to be down on man who, rightly or wrongly, feels himself called upon to lead a great movement. Perhaps Garvey had been wise if he had left the Black Star Line venture for private enterprise, and in that consists the great lesson of the situation. one ultimate result, the downfall of the British Empire, and I most emphatically say that Englishmen who argue that the intercourse between white women and black men is immoral are guilty of the foulest possible libel on the white women of the Anglo-Saxian race. I desire also, to urge that, in my opinion, it is to the credit of my people that they marry the girls with whom they associate instead of leaving them with illegitimate offspring to face the sneers of the world, and if Sir Ralph Williams thinks that the problem can be solved by sending every black or colored unit forthwith back to his own country, then we should be compelled to see that every white unit is sent back to England from Africa and the West India islands in order that the honor of our sisters and daughters over there may be kept intact. "We are taking our stand on this fundamental principle of the British Constitution, that for every British subject there shall be equality before the law, regardless of the color of a man's skin. "All honor to the broad-minded Englishwoman who can see behind skin and behind superficial differences and recognize the man inside, and shame Sir Ralph Williams and others of his kind, who having exploited them and experienced every kindness at their hands, and who even now, in enjoyment of a pension which black men are contributing towards, still, show such a lamentable lack of decency as Marcus Garvey is out of jail and breathes again the free air of Harlem, and it is our fond hope that prison doors will not again close upon him. He may have made mistakes and errors, who has not? Every man who attempts big things makes mistakes, and yet through it all a great lesson has been taught and today, in spite of what his enemies might say the race has renewed confidence; in the value of co-operation. The Universal Negro Improvement Association stood pat and fought to the last ditch. They may have been wrong, but they believed they were right and they stood by their convictions. Let us say what we will or may it herald a new day in the life De Omnibus Rebus The prevailing tendency in the church has been to spend too much time on the discussion of theological subjects, dogmas and creeds and altogether too little time on the practical questions which make up the actual conduct of man. The preacher has been discussing the inspiration of the Bible, the Trinity, incarceration and the atonement, while the practical needs of men's lives have gone neglected. The last thing in any religion the people accept is its dogmas or theology. The people accept a religion when they see it is doing something practical, when they are able to see its fruits in the happier life and a greater character. That religion which does the greatest amount of practical good will have the greatest following regardless of its creeds, dogmas and theology. The church today is a failure. Christianity is not a failure, but the instrument through which it is administered is today inadequate to give expression to it. While we have bigger churches, finer organs and more elaborate furnishings, we have less of the true spirit and correct interpretation of Christ's teachings. The church today fails to satisfy and serve mankind. Man today tormented by fear, worry and anxiety, wants a church and a minister that will teach him how to subdue and live these down. Tell Us How to Do the Hard Things Tell Us How to Do the Hard Things It is easy to say, "Accept Christ and have faith in Him," or "Work out your own salvation," but how—how? This is the question. We are trying to have faith in Him, we are trying to work out our own salvation, but we know not in what direction to work regardless of our faith in work, still conscious of strife and turmoil within. We are conscious that there is little peace within our souls. Anger, hates and superstition still rack our brain. Yet we hear from the pulpit, "Build up yourself into a Christ-like character?" How? Where do we start? What is the first step? Tell us a practical way. These are the questions and demands of the laity today. They are calling for a religion which tells them not only what to do, but how to do it. Christianity as interpreted by our fathers will not interest nor impress the young people today. Young men and women will attend church, sing in the choir, throw coins in the collection plates; they will play on the church basketball team or attend its many entertainments, but they are not, interested nor are they making any efforts to practice that unexplained "religious life" the preachers talk so loudly about. In this material age the world is calling for a religion which meets the material needs, a religion that helps them to live and face the responsibilities of everyday life. A religion that does not do this is of but little use to the world today. If the church is to serve the present generation, it must meet the needs of the present generation.

HAS CAUSED THE LEADERS OF THOUGHT TO CHANGE THEIR OPINIONS ABOUT NEIGHBOR-STATE MEN AND UNEASY OVER THE PROGRESS OF THE MOVEMENT AND, SAYS GARVEY, ANYTHING MAY HAPPEN FAVORABLY FOR THE NEGRO IN ANOTHER TWO YEARS The U. N. I. A. Has Done More in Bringing Together Men With the Consciousness of Self and Determination for Service Than by Any Other Race for the Last Three Hundred Years—Garvey Is Given a Hearty Send Off on a Four Weeks' Vacation Trip Alderman Smith Speaks Word of Praise for U. N. I. A. and Its Great Leader—Returns Thanks to Those Who Supported Him in the Primaries and Brought About the Defeat of His Opponent, George W. Harris—Harris Is Held Out as an Enemy of the Organization and Should Be Blackballed by Them in His Candidacy for Public Office LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday, Night, September 30—Hon. Marion Garvey bade farewell to Liberty Hall tonight on the eve of his departure on a four weeks' vacation. trip, during which he will travel across the country to the Pacific Coast. Four thousand loyal followers of the New York Local of the Universal Negro Improvement Association were on hand to whist their leader and his devoted wife Godsped and an enjoyable vacation, which they unanimously agreed was well earned and richly deserved. As an earnest of this the contributed liberally to a vacation fund which was raised and presented to Mr. Garvey to defray the expense of his trip. Doubt was freely expressed however, that the trip would be an ideal vacation one, for knowing as they do of his untiring efforts for, his intense interest and entire absorption in the Universal Negro Improvement: Association, which he has fathered, he will not resist the temptation to address the hundred of thousands of his followers and sympathizers who will clamor for a word from or to catch a glimpse of the most talked of Negro of today: the man who was not afraid to sacrifice his freedom for the cause of his race, but was willing to suffer incarceration for a movement which he believed to be just and righteous, a movement which, his vision leads him to, believe, will bring the Negro back into his own again and establish him in the land of his forefathers with a government of his own. The program tonight was of the usual interesting character, and again little Master Samuels captivated the audience with another wonderful oration and demonstrated in himself one of the future leaders of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The speakers were Hon P.L. Eburne first assistant general counsel Lady Henrietta Union Patterson Hon Marion Garvey and Hon William Smith, Alberkleen for the 23d African American District and candidate for reelection. Mr. Hayes is one of those who was the principal address of the evening and was presented to with great attention. He spoke on the subject, "Lifting the Way," but before entering on the theme of his talk, he spoke in terms of peace of the temporary entailment in which was already growing his recent visit to the institution in Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Detroit and Cleveland. The enthusiasm in poity and devotion, he displayed in three places on his appearance for the Universal Negro Improvement Association was astounding. At first he thought it was born of curiosity to see a man just from jail but but there were other men from jail who did not attract such a crowd, he took it for granted that it was a curiosity to hear the last word of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. At each place, he added, the people turned out by the thousands and packed the building, paying 50 and 75 cents to gain admission. This, he said, showed the enthusiasm of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the colored people at large for the program of the organization—an entailment cultivated and brought about by his being in jail for three months, and he ejaculated in a humorous vein: It Neutralizes Stomach Acidity, Prevents Food Fermentation, Bour, Gassy Stomach and Acid Indigestion Doubts if you are a sufferer from indigestion, you will have pains, churned, drunk and various digestive nids and you know these things will not cure your trouble—in some cases do not even give relief.

It is important to know that magnesium is essential in body and health. It is important to know that magnesium is essential in body and health. It is important to know that "Suppose I had been in jail for five months." The organization, he continued, was gradually winning the favor of opinion of the thoughtful world, the opinions of critics notwithstanding. It was the only organization of Negroes that has caused the leaders of thought in the world to change their opinions about Negroes. During the last twelve months the members of the organization had so conducted themselves that they have made an impression upon the minds of thoughtful men, responsible men and real leaders of other peoples and nations to the extent that anything may happen favorably for the Negro in another two years. In making a comparison between the U. N. L. A. and other race movements, he said that the U. N. L. A. differed from the others in that it was organizing not to beg but to demand the things that other races were enjoying. The U. N. L. A. has done more in the twentieth century in bringing men together with the consciousness of self and determination for service than has been done by any other, race for the last three hundred years. It has set the world on tip-toe looking for the march of four hundred million Negroes. At the conclusion of his address Mr Garvey introduced Alderman John William Smith, who, he said, was a friend of the association. In doing so he complimented those in the audience who had supported Mr. Smith, in the primaries, defeating his opponent, George W. Harpis. He took opportunity to remind his hearers that George Harris was the man who opposed the Rose Day celebration, which was planned some time ago by the U. N. I. A. and which was sanctioned by the white members of the Board of Aldermen, but was opposed by Mr. Harris, the only colored member. This same George Harris, he added, was one of the eight who wrote the infamous letters to the Attorney General of the United States stating that the U. N. I. A was a bond of anarchists and that Garvey was deloyal and should be in prison. Mr. Smith spoke briefly, indulging the aims and objects of the association and his adoration for the leader of the movement, Mr. Garvey, for his courage and manhood and for the stultest fight he was making in the interest of his race. Following are the text of the speeches: HON. P. L. BURROWES' ADDRESS HON. P. L. BURROWES' ADDRESS "I'm human events things common and uncommon even. Today in the history of the world we notice that a history of errors is being played. The fact that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has come upon the scene to adjust this comedy of errors is proof enough that the Negro is awake. This is something to the test of the world uncommon. The common things, the every day things, were the things that contended the race before the fact that they were considered to have nothing to be proud of, that they were looked upon as coming from nowhere and that, as our future, they were going to no particular place. But at last we have discovered that the Negro, like other races, has found out through the determined efforts of our emancipating readjuster, not only of the whole human race, but of the whole human family, that it has something to strive for. When the Negro has attained his proper place and is able to enjoy the rights and opportunities which rightfully belong to him, other races and nations' will also find their particular places. The U. N. I. A. All-Embracing The Universal Negro Improvement Association has come upon the scene through the instrumentality of the indomitable leader of 400,000,000 Negroes, whether they care to admit, it or not, whether they care to accept it or not. If tomorrow our alma and objects are accomplished, Negroes throughout the world will be found running to the colors of the Red, Black and the Green. (Applause.) The program of the Universal Negro improvement Association is not only for you and for me, but for all the scattered sons and daughters of Ethiopia. Marcus Garvey, has come upon the scene, the only great man among Negroes, to be found capable, determined enough, strong enough, both tough, many enough, strenuous enough and honest enough to tell the rest of the world that the Negro demipsis this particular place. (Applause.) And so we did and skimmed the world wide for the Magen. While Whitman mung his soul of smoking, the world was for darkness, we had this great The House of Unique Work, inviting and dependable. No job is too big or too small us. Ours is a modern equipped plant: Special rates to Divisions, Lodges, Churches and Clubs. All works to our prompt and direct attention DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND INDUSTRY 86 West 136th Street New York City Well Earned Vacation Tenight marks an epoch in the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. And what is this epoch? This epoch marks the first vacation of the Provisional President of Africa and the President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Tenight, we are and ought to be proud to be able to send him on a vacation which he has well earned and has well deserved. I only hope, Your Excellency, that you will enjoy the vacation, but I am doubtful, friends, whether he will spend one moment otherwise than working for the cause of African redemption. "I feel proud to be able to speak in the interests of my race. I feel part of the great responsibility of helping to lead this significant movement, and those who must lead cannot be numbered with the race ensmen, but we stand shoulder to shoulder with other men of other races, who are willing and ready to do their part. we stand by this determined leader through thick and thin, and we shall stand until the colors of the Red, the Black and the Green are planted upon the hilltops of our motherland, Africa (Applause.) CAPTAIN GAINES SPEAK8 CAPTAIN GAINES SPEAKS Capt. C. E. Gaines spoke on the subject of "The Political Ramifications of the Universal Negro Improvement Association over the World." Four years ago, he said, Negroes in America had no political aspiration beyond the political parties in the United States of America; their aspiration was continued to the political status of men in this country only, but since the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Marcus Garvey came, we are not only interested in the two millions of the race who works to the polls at election time, but are stretching out across the seas and taking a part in the politics of the world. Not since the palmy days of ancient Egypt had Negroes sent a representative of their race to mix with the white people of the world in their councils, but tonight we were proud to say that sent from tatterly Hall, New York city, is a full-blooded representative of the race at Geneva, Switzerland, who is taking an active part in the affairs that will determine the destinies of mankind. He, the speaker, was glad that Hom. Marcus Garvey had chosen Mr. Jean Joseph Adams, to do political work for the Universal Negro Improvement Association because he was qualified in every way to represent the race and he had no doubt that he would acquit himself nibly in his efforts to look after the interests of the race to the end that the Negro will be accorded the rights which other races were enjoying. LADY DAVIS INTRODUCES MR. GARVEY Lady Hennette Vinton Davis was called upon to introduce Hon. Marcia Garvey as the principal speaker of the evening, and said: 'I indeed down it a very great privilege as well as a pleasure to introduce to you not only the greatest leader of Negroes, but the greatest man standing shoulder to shoulder with all the great men of the world.' (Applause.) man and Patriot Combined We have had great philosophers, great statesmen, great military and great patriots, but in this one great personality of Marcus Garvey we have all these combined. There will be before you a man who has dared in all for his race: a man who has suffered and is willing to suffer twice, suffers gladly, who suffers proudly in an endeavor to lift four hundred million of human beings out of oblivion to the summit of prosperity. Marcus Garvey, this great character, is indispensable. He has come across the like a brilliant meteor, passing for a whirl that we might admire as well as wonder at. Those of us who have the privilege of being near him often wonder "what manner of man is that that God has sent unto us." Certainly he is divinely sent; certainly he is a messenger of the great Almighty who rules over the destinies of races. This man has fought with the tenacity of a bulldog—knowing no obstacle, inspiring his followers with the ambition to go on, and we say to him "We will follow Marcus, where then leadoff." (Applause.) When this great magnetic personality shall travel across this country from the Atlantic to the Pacific there will be millions upon millions who will press forward to catch a glimpse of him—who will press forward to touch the hem of his garment—who will press forward to get into the radius of that wonderful magnetism that they may be "We say to him tonight: We pledge you our loyal devotion; we pray for you unceasingly; we see the vision just as you see it; we are determined to press forward as you are pressing, never faltering, never weakening, until we reach the goal of the ambition of the greatest living haro—the Hon. Marcus Garvey." (Aplause). HON. MARCUS GARVEY SPEAKS Hon. Marcus Garvey spoke as follows: "My subject for tonight is 'Blasting the Way.' I have just returned from a visit to four of the other divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, principally those that assisted you in raising money for my ball bond; namely. Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Detroit and then Cleveland. Enthusiasm Astounding Enthusiasm Around It "The enthusiasm, loyalty and devotion displayed at these places on my appearance for the Universal Negro Improvement Association" astounded me. First I thought it was the curiosity of seeing a man just from jail (laughter), but there were many other men from jail who did not attract such a crowd; so I took it for granted it was not only the curiosity to see a man from jail but the curiosity to hear the last word of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. In Philadelphia we used a fighting ring; we could not get any other place large enough to hold the crowd, and on the first night they packed that place up to the ceiling; paying 75 cents and 50 cents to come in. Now that is where we want to discriminate between the enthusiasm that follows the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the enthusiasm that follows other movements. Our enthusiasm is a practical enthusiasm, in that the people pay for it and pay for it in advance; the other is come as you like. In Philadelphia we had fully 6,000 people in that building. In Chicago we had a building larger than the one in Philadelphia and they packed it to the last seat. In Cleveland we had to turn away of 4,000 people who could not get in. I had to address an overflow meeting, one on the main floor and one in the basement. The crowd was so large that there was no building in Cleveland to hold that crowd. In Detroit, the second division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, you can imagine—we had the biggest attorney in town and every seat was taken in that armory; and as I said, every one of those people paid 50 or 75 cents adulation to these meetings, and if I had been speaking there now, all the time, there would have been people willing to pay the same price. That shows to you the enthusiasm of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the educated people at large for the program of the association an enthusiasm enhanced and brought about by my being in jail for three months, suppressed. I had been in jail for two months. (Applause and laughter.) So it is not a bad thing to go to jail after all and stay there for three months. But we are not going to discuss it tonight; we are going to discuss the progress of our movement. Gradually Winning the Favor of the World We are proud of winning the favorable opinion of the thoughtful world, the philosophers of the notwithstanding. We are the only organization of Negroes that did not the ordinary man in the street but the middle class man in the street but the leaders of thought in the world to change their opinions about Negroes. We are the only organization that has caused that in the last 12 months, you have impressed yourself upon the minds of men thoughtful men, responsible men, real leaders of other peoples and nations, real individuals to the extent that anything may happen favorably to you in another two years. Not because the world willed it to you, but because you have demanded it and have demonstrated your intention of taking it. Other Organizations Beg the Question "The difference between us, and other movements of the race is that they bog the question and are satisfied to continue begging the question. We are organizing not to bog, but to demand, and we do not want anybody to make any mistake about that. Some people think that we have gotten away from ourselves and that I personally have gotten away from myself. There is no getting away from self now; that is to say, in the estimation of the other fellow, the demanding of the things that are yours and ours is not become Why the U. N. J. A. Talks No one loves us more than the Universal Negro Improvement Association. No one loves us more than the those who lead the Universal Negro Improvement Association. And that is why we talk so much and tell every one of you how we want and who we want. If we continue to follow what we want and who we want, we will be in trouble. which is published strictly in the interest and for the enlightenment of God's people of the negro race, the world over, as the Greatest Hut ever made by the Almighty for the success the making great and deliverance of any people in the history of the world.

The other fellow has been thinking for a long while that it is uncomprehending, by the Neuro to demonstrate anything like manhood. He is making a splash if he thinks that we are now surmised by the influence of that fellow who was always afraid to assert himself within the race. We are, as we have often said, having a policy to make for our assertiveness. The thing that we are talking about is the thing that we want and is the thing that we are going to get. When men come to consider me personally one of the leaders of the movement, they will readily understand that there is nothing in the world that can make me fearful of any consequence leading up to this thing that we want. Those of us who lead are conscious of ourselves, and, speaking for myself, I am more than conscious of what I am doing. Heaven, Hell or the Jail I have three choices to make in life; the choices are heaven, hell and the jail. Now any one of these three that I takes to emancipate 400,000,000 Negroes and reacme a lost country, I am going to do. [Applause] and nobody will make any mistake about it. "You see, there seems to be a peculiar idea in the minds of certain people that all men can be cowards—that all men are fearful. Some of us are not made that way at all. There is nothing in the world that can make some people afraid. Some people are afraid of ghosts [Laughter] and are afraid to walk the streets after midnight. But there are some people who if they believe that there is a penny on the eye of a dead man will go and pick it off. [Laughter.] That is the difference between people. Some are fearful—naturally born timid and cowardly—and others have absolutely no fear at all. "Well, mugk the 400,000,000 of us all of us are purely not cowards and surely some of us are made up of the stuff of the fellows who have had the courage to bare their breasts in the cause of human liberty as was done in the Spanish-American war, as was done in the Revolutionary war and as was done in France and Plainsboro. These are the people and that is the sentiment that we are developing in the Universal Negro Improvement Association and we are serious about it. I know what I am talking about. You sit down in Liberty Hall cannot imagine the strength of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. You cannot imagine what you have done. Believe me, you have done more in the twentieth century in bringing men together with the consciousness of self and determination for service than has been done by any other race for the last 300 years. Why, you do not know what you have done. You have set the world on triune looking for what" Looking for the march of misunderstanding Negro. There is no pretense in Europe who knows easily and quiesces at this time because at any moment they are listening for the trump of the 000000 block mea. And one of these days they will not be disappointed. I first wanna to think about that. We are asking the Negroes a man to bring and we are saving that we are not going to take anything in the world because what other human beings get from the world. That is why we want me, and if other people who yellow think we men on anything, then they have a big thing coming after that, because we men are less than that. We mean that we are going to ask for, demand and be right for the things that we have are not (Applause). And the men are not about it; there is nothing to be about it. We are not told in the world!

That is a Christ-like attitude, even though it is foolish in an age like this. That is the way we like to go. We like to tell the other fellow that you have committed a mistake and you have got a chance to mend your ways. The Universal believes in this policy, that if your brother has something belonging for you, do not short off fighting him, but start off telling him that he has made a mistake, that he just had something that is yours and that you are asking him to give it back to you. Then, if he is a little hard of hearing, you touch him and say, "Brother, I am talking to you." (Laughter). Then, if he cannot easily and cannot feel quickly, the next thing is to knock him down. (Applause). And that is the attitude of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and 200,000 Negroes toward the redemption of Africa. "We differ a great deal from other Negro initiates and leaders and movements. At least we have divided ourselves into two schools of thought. There is absolutely no mistake about that. We represent the one school at the one extreme and organizations like the National Association represent the other school at the other extreme. The differences between us and the other organizations is that they for fifty years have been telling us about the other fellow and what he has been saying and what we should do. Dr. Du Bols, Johnson and Pickens and that group, who claim to be graduates of the best colleges in this country and the universities of the world, have been telling us of the philosophies of other men—what Shakespeare said, what Plato has said, what Brown has said, what Newton has and what Darrow has said, what Huxley has said and what Rowsley has said and the rest.

CANT AND HUMBUG SIR EDWARD GRIGG is certainly a master in misrepresenting facts regarding the attitude of the dominant races towards the subject races, and he is untruthful when he states that Great Britain exercises her imperialism on behalf of the subject races which the rules. Sir Edward is an Imperialist who believes in employing military force against weaker people, when these will not submit to exploitation. He also stated that the stronger nations should treat the backward peoples politically and economically in the same manner that they stamp out plague and epidemic. Perhaps Sir Edward, when he made those statements, was playing to the gallery and endeavoring to please the white audience, before which he lectured at Williamstown, Pa. His remarks are quite in keeping with the idea of "white supremacy." It is a well known fact that the colonies and territories held by Britain are governed by her for the best interests of her white subjects, and that the interests of the native races are secondary and subsidiary. The colonies serve as a convenient dumping-ground for English boneheads, shell-shocked army incompetent, and individuals who at home are considered failures. Hence every effort on the part of the colonies to acquire a larger measure of self-government is blocked by the friends of these parasites in Downing street, and the usual excuse given that the natives are not yet ready for self-government, the Britishers realizing only too well that, under native administration, only competent white men would be employed. Sir Edward, in endeavoring to justify the occupation and exploitation of the British colonies and the mandatory territories, said that British stateship demand a safe and adequate share of raw materials and markets and, naturally, their trusteeship is likely to be exercised over unprogressive peoples who, he might have added, are too weak to protect themselves from the onslaughts of the dominant race, and whose territories contain unused raw material. True to his kind, the noble knight is advocating that "Might is right." Let us be frank and acknowledge that Great Britain and the other powers hold their territories by force, and not by the expressed wish of the natives, and all this talk about sacred duty to backward peoples is all cant and humbug. When the demanding of raw materials from unprotected peoples is made so expensive in blood and money to the dominant races that the game will hardly be worth the candle, then, and not till then, will they act squarely by us. As for Sir Edward, we know no pseudo-statesman who can be as ridiculous as he, when, in his periodical fits, he rants about the "white man's burden." THINK IT OVER THE Negro race has been drifting, because its leaders were of the drifting sort. Some leaders, particularly the self-appointed, are still drifting. They drift from one program to another, always seeking the line of least resistance. The least convenient program is instantly discarded for the more convenient. Principles do not count. Gain, personal gain, glory fleeting—this is the need they prostrate themselves before the god of Mammon for. The people! They do not count, except as they may be used as stepping-stones. It is a terrible indictment. It is a true indictment. The average Negro leader speaks only for himself. In religion he resorts to schemes worthy of the Pharisees to gain for himself the bauble, the empty title of "big preacher." In politics, he will sell the votes, even the very souls of his race for a few gleaming ducats or a political job. Ong day he is a Communist. In the dawn of the succeeding day he is a capitalist. Yesterday he proclaimed his love for Caesar. Today, with Caesar stricken down, he screams his affection for Brutus. If God were not the God of the masses, the Negro race would have perished in Stygian despair long ago. A clan of parasitic leaders we still have with us today, each man for himself, none for us all. It is a pity. Negro leaders, instead of getting together on the things in which they agree, spend their days in seeking out and magnifying non-essentials upon which they do not agree. We must have local leaders. We must have national leaders. Who will deny that we should have an international leader? Negroes are but Negroes, though they come from the ends of the earth. What affects Negroes in one section in time will affect Negroes in another section. Once Negroes were only lynched in the Southland. Now they are lynched in the North, West and East. Once upon a time only the ignorant, uncouth black was lynched or burned at the stake. Now the more intelligent he is, the more cultured he happens to be, the more liable he is to lose his life without the due process of law. Why? As long as merely Southern Negroes were lynched, Negroes in the North felt secure. While the victim was the man lower down, they smiled, confident of their security. So the race drifted and found itself confronted the country over with like conditions. A law prohibiting that a sure one. In South Bend he must run. In conditions he must get out. It is his fault. He has allowed himself to be left and getting out leaders so long, that the race has become one kind of running, and getting out is out of date. He must move, moving habitats. He must learn to play the man. He must learn to must out of every burden or so-called leader in every discipline. He must learn to calm him. And we are. We must love Editor, Negro World, Mr. "Will you kindly allow me space in your paper for the publication of the heroin employed letter to his Bro- klyn, Mr. Coolidge. "I want to inform him that since his taking possession of the Presidential chair things seem to be getting worse in Haiti. Yours very truly, JOSEPH MIRAULT. 100 West 141st street, New York City. Correspondent for the "Courier Haitien" organ of national defense. To His Excellency, Mr. Coolidge, President of the United States of America. I have the honor to write you through the medium of the press to inform you that, in continuance of the systematic destruction in Heilt, the wholesale murder of our leaders is now being contemplated. The plot has been engineered, it is said, by some of the officials of the occupation during a private meeting held at the bureau of gendarmie in Fort-au-Prince. But the scheme leaked out when one of the would-be murderers, a man of bad character of the name of Laurent, refused to carry out their instructions. He is in hiding now for they intend to make him pay for having divulged their inhuman project. According to those officials in whose brain that Machiavellian plot took birth, by getting rid of the leaders (Mr. Jolibolla File, director of the daily "Courier Haitien" is the first on the death list), the resistance that is being encountered will subside, and ultimately die out, and the internal taxes effective on October 10 will be applied without any serious kick coming and nothing more will be heard A GLIMPSE AT THE WORLD By J. W. STREETER, JR. In Rome and all over Italy the people are celebrating the anniversary of Rome's founding. The story of Romulus and Remus, pugnacious little boys suckled and raised by a she-wolf, is told again to all the pugnacious, energetic little sons of modern Italy. The great men of Rome are extolled to the skies, and Mussolini, believed to combine in his person Cicerole and Caeser with Augustus and Marcus Aurelius is praised even higher than the skies. Best wishes from all over the world for the new Italy, worthy daughter of ancient Rome. May all her hopes be realized and all her past glories excelled. Montesquieu justly calls the world. In a form later Jam American for their a sort from one than a war a request make him There is to quarrel, manner of. There is no in fighting, vide more nations we "The founding of Rome." How far back it sounds to us who buy "Early American" things and call eighteenth century trinkets. "Antique." But how ancient is Rome, compared with Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, observed by our Jewish brothers Thursday. When the shofar, ancient sacred trumpet, was blown at sundown, all Israel heard the sound repeated every year without interruption for 65 centuries. There you have ages and continuity. "Hear Israel, the Lord is thy God, the Lord is one." That cry had been heard for ages, when Robe's seven bells were bared, before the oldest stone of the oldest Roman ruin had been cut from the quarry. There's a little earthquake tremor in England, just enough to rattle windows and remind us that even "this land this realm, this England," with her chalk cliffs, built by little marine animals, and pushed up out of the sea by nature's power, might be pushed down by the same power. Forbid it, kind heaven! The earth needs British common sense, British ability to colonize, while leaving native populations their liberty. And the earth needs the example of democracy set by the British government that THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD As everyone who has followed the proceedings of the historic trial of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and his co-workers of the Black Star Line will fully remember the accusations hurled at him and the organization he represented by the prosecuting attorney—namely, that his followers had an arsenal in Harlem and was going to start an insurrection because he was convicted will not brand those utterances as malicious and wicked, for since the incarceration of our leader no race or group of people has ever conducted themselves as we have. Instead of using the sword to our utter destruction we have used the pen to a glorious advantage, and by the pen the peace and promote it. And we do. But when the armed mob, the rabble, comes, with wild cry and grim destruction in their eyes, lift up your heads, son of Haim, stiffen your lip, stretch forth your arms, and remember that Shakespeare wrote a play called "Measure for Measure." Meet the ruffians with the same sort of weapon, and forget not that black men, though badly in good of leaders, chose to die rather than sum up or fall with their backs towards the foe. The black man himself can stop all lynching, riots and "getting out." Only he himself can stop it. The sooner this is fully fulfilled, the better. about the loan of $44,000,000 adopted against the will of the people and prejudices of their protestation (which sums in being wasted by the meeting of the bear) and the American cooperation will have accomplished its aim and object in Haiti—that is to say our enslaving for eternity. In the new laws which have been enacted it is specifically stated that people who fail to pay their internal taxes will be expropriated. How on God's earth can a people pay internal taxes when they can't afford to buy a piece of bread to relieve their hunger? You know, Mr. President, that public meetings are being held all over Haiti urging the people to resistance; you must know too, perhaps, that we have reached the point where we cannot stand that unbearable situation any more. Since you took possession of the presidential chair, which event was greeted with joy by the Haitians, you have been receiving cablegrams from all parts of Haiti, asking you to recall the occupation so as to permit us to exercise our rights as citizens and free people. The presence of Mr. Borno, the Guadeloupean, who was forced upon us by the occupation, is odious to us. We know that you will not fall to take the necessary steps to see that justice is done us, but you must hurry; Mr. President, especially as the fatal day is drawing near, October 10, when the murderous internal taxes will take effect. We know that the presidency won't change the Coolidge of the past; that is to say, the man whose guide has always been justice and fair play in all his dealings in politics as well as in private. I have the honor to be Mr. President, your devoted servant. Montequille more than 200 years ago justly called the best government in the world. In a formal letter from Prime Minister Yamamoto, Japan thanks the American government and the people for their aid in the earthquake. That is the sort of message that should pass from one nation to another, rather than a war message—an ultimatum or a request to pay impossible sums or make humiliating reparations. There is no reason for the nations to quarrel, if they would adopt the manner of a decent civilized individual. There is more pleasure in helping than in fighting. And the earth would provide more than enough for all if the nations would devote to science and the conquest of this globe one-quarter the amount they so gladly contribute to international killing. The earth is near a change to come with air passenger traffic across the ocean. The ZR-3 built for the U.S.A. in Germany is expected to fly across and reach here in November. Continuous men of the navy will experiment in ocean travel with Zeppelins that this government has wisely ordered. And air travel around the earth is not far away. When it comes man will have conquered space in his little corner of it. Geography that children now learn, looking at the classroom map they will learn looking down from a flying machine in flight. Now you are above the ocean; those black mountains are the Azores, once they were flaming volcanoes; those little specks are water ships, carrying heavy freight. Men used to travel on them—and even rely on the wind to blow them where they wanted to go. Now you are approaching the shores of Europe. We shall pass over London soon and a few minutes later over Paris. Thus the children will be taught one of those days. Who will provide the flying schools? A few years ago the same question would have been asked about the public schools! Hon. Marcus Garvey has set himself free. At the same time we will not forget the kindly help given from the various pulpits by some of the good ministers as well as the militant and courageous attitude of The Negro World, through its editors. But the climax came to the pen when the Hon. Marcus Garvey made known through the New York World last August that his rise in world affairs from the cradle to the Tombs, in which no one could doubt his sincerity in doing, good for his race as well as the article in the Current History Magazine, put his detractors to shame and brought forth his real friends. "And there we have the pen standing in all its glory and ever. ready to fight. But there is no doubt that if we follow the great leader from his entry into world affairs we see him, winning all his fights with one weapon—the pen. JULIUS MARSON.

Poston, secretary-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and a member of the Committee of Management appointed by the Hon. Marcus Garvey to administer the affairs of the U.-N. Poston had to wage legal battles under person during of war. His own Lieutenant Colonel confined to camp, in the matter. N was head of the batsuicide a few days I. A. during his recent incarceration. Mr. Poston is a typical example of the young Negro gentleman, who, fearless of expression, imbued with a fervent desire to promote the welfare of his race, has dedicated his life to the cause Afric. It is but natural that he should be found in the ranks of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, sounding the call to Negro men and women to be up and doing. Of an urban disposition, studious and earnest, a fine speaker and a brilliant writer, quietly and unostentatiously he is daily rendering yeoman service to his race. His record gives the lie direct to detractors of this great movement, who state that the U. N. L. A. is not attracting and utilizing the best talent within the race. The office of secretary-general of the U. N. L. A. is a big one and can be filled only by a big man. Mr. Poston is big in the things that matter—honesty, unwarying loyalty, training, ability and efficiency. He is a man in every sense of the word. If any one is inclined to doubt the unselfish nature of Mr. Poston's service to the U. N. I. A, we need only remind them of the sacrifice, he made when he was literally forced to choose between giving wholehearted support to the U. N. I. A, as continuing the work he loved of placing the "Detroit Contender" of which he was editor, in the van of national papers. The "Contender" was achieving a remarkable success, when its editor used its powerful columns in the interests of the U. N. I. A. This did not please certain persons and interests to whom talk of Negro progress and achievement is plain heresy, and a shrewd proscription followed. Finally he left Detroit and, arrived in New York, was soon carrying on as an executive officer of the U. N. I. A. Mr. Poston was born in Hopkinsonville, Ky., in the year 1830. His parents were school teachers, his father, instructor at the State Normal School at Frankfort, Ky.; his mother, county supervisor of schools of Christian and Trigg counties. After graduating from common school in his home town, Mr. Poston entered Walden University, Nashville, Tenn. After his third year he left Walden and entered Howard University, Washington, D. C. From Howard he went to Boston, where he took a course in elocution and expression. Returning to his native city for a visit, he was induced by his parents to accept a position as teacher. He taught several years at the M. and F. College at Hopkinsville. During this time the war broke out and along with the many others, he entered the service of his country. Mr. Poston was promoted to the rank of sergeant three days after entering Camp Taylor, Louisville, Ky., and in less than a month he was recommended to enter Camp Pike, officers training school, for the commission of postmaster, which was considered an unusual record in Camp Taylor, where prejudice existed against the colored society. Immerse with a high sense of justice and the play, Mr. Poston soon found himself in serious difficulty with a white allegiance with southern tendency of a rank below himself. To keep from going to Leuvenworth, Mr. Foston had to wage one of the greatest legal battles undertaken by any colored person during the whole period of war. His own company commander, Lieutenant Taylor, was demoted and confined to camp, because of his part in the matter. Major Luedke, who was head of the battalion, committed suicide a few days after the camp was disposed of. Another captain, who was sent to take Lieutenant Taylor's place as commander, had a nervous breakdown and was committed to the base hospital for the insane. Mr. Foston himself was reduced in rank and made a clerk in the discharge department of Camp Taylor. Eleven months afterward he was honorably discharged from the service without having had the privilege of engaging in the activities across the seas. Not at all embittered with his experiences in the army, but made more determined to fight for fair play because of what he had undergone, he returned to his home town and began editing a paper called the "Hopkinsville Contender." Soon after, his arrival, the county gave a celebration for all of the returned soldiers. It was arranged that the colored soldiers would march on the end of the parade. Mr. Poston protested against this in his paper, and, because of this, he was not permitted to print his paper in Hopkinsville. Not willing to be outdone in the matter, he boarded a train and, went to Nashville, Teen, where he arranged with the National Baptist Publishing Board to print the paper for him, and each week he would have the paper printed out of state and delivered to him, sometimes finding it necessary to go to Nashville for the papers. He soon found this way of getting his paper out too expensive, so together with his brother he decided to go to Detroit, Mich., which was gradually becoming a city of opportunity for ambitious colored young men. He arrived in Detroit and was offered the position of advertising manager of the "Detroit Compass," a weekly paper. He accepted this and worked about six months, after which he, together with his brother and a young man by the name of Arthur Turner, began publishing a paper of their own by the name of the "Detroit Contender." This paper, because of its independent stand, soon became the mouthpiece of Negroes, not only in Detroit, but throughout the State. It established the unusual record of excelling in eight months' time, all of the other papers in circulation, one of which was twelve years old. It was while editing the paper in Detroit that Dr. Poston became interested in the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. After hearing the Honorable Marcus Garvey's speech at Utopia Hall. He joined the local branch of the movement and became an ardent supporter of its principles. Mr. Garvey had in some way become acquainted with the work Mr. Poston and his associates were doing with the 'Contender' to advance the program of the Universal, and when Mr. Poston attended the second international convention of the Negro people of the world in 1923, Mr. Garvey nominated him for the position of second assistant secretary general. He has since been promoted to the position of secretary general, which position he holds at this writing. ABYSSINIA ADMITTED TO LEAGUE OF NATIONS GENEVA, Syltmanned, Repa, XI. Kittipa (Kingdom of Abysinia) was admitted to the League of Nations as a member, the assembly being notified that so form of slavery was being in their country. The Abysinian delegates divided a vote on Soy that they made it in picturesque and splendid ruben. "The Constitution is not self-perpetuating," said the President's letter, "if it will survive it will be because it has public support. It means making adequate sacrifice to maintain what is of public benefit. "The Constitution of the United States is the final refuge of every right that is enjoyed by any American citizen. So long as it is observed, those rights will be secure. Whenever it falls into disrespect or disrepute, the end of orderly organised government, as we have known it for more than 125 years, will be at hand. The Constitution represents a government of law. There is only one other form of authority, and that is a government of force. Americans must make their choice between these two. One signifies justice and liberty; the other tyranny and oppression. To live under the American Constitution is the greatest political privilege accorded to the human race." President Coolidge is one of the best students of the American Constitution in public life today. His devotion to that fundamental instrument of our government has been constant and his support of it upon all occasions has been vigorous and unquivocal. In an address to the Massachusetts general court on January 8, 1920, Mr. Coolidge said: "Our government belongs to the people. Our property belongs to the people. It is distributed. They own it. The taxes are paid by the people. They bear the burdens. The benefits of government must accrue to the people; not one class but to all classes, to all the people. The functions, the power, the sovereignty of the government must be kept where they have been placed by th Constitution and laws of the people." In his capacity as governor, he vetoed a bill passed by the Massachusetts legislature providing for the manufacture and sale of beer. In his veto message he said: "By the solemn, adoption of an amendment to the fundamental law of the land, jurisdiction of this subject had been placed in Congress. It ougl to be left, there until it is declared it... equal solemnity by the Supreme Court that such amendment is valid. . . . That which the court hesitates to decide, I shall not hasten to declare. My oath was not to take a chance on the Constitution. It was to support it . . . "We have had too much legislating by clamor, by tumult, by pressure. Representative government ceases when outside influence of any kind is substituted for the judgment of the representative. This does not mean that the opinion of constituents is to be ignored. It is to be weighed most carefully, for the representative must represent, but his oath provides that it must be faithfully and impartially according to the best of his abilities and understanding, agreeably to the rules and regulations of the Constitution and laws." Opinions and instructions, do not outmatch the Constitution. Against if they are void. It is an insult to any Massachusetts constituency to suggest that they were so intended. Instructions are not given unless given constitutionally. Instructions are not carried out unless carried out constitutionally. There can be no constitutional instruction to do an unconstitutional act." CAPTAIN EDISON MCVEY, NEGRO AVIATOR, IS NOW AT HOME CONVALESCING WE were very glad to learn of the home coming of our friend and comrade, McVey, who some two months ago while making a test flight in his plane at New Jersey met with a serious accident, the cause of which was when he had ascended about one hundred feet in a test flight the motor of the plane suddenly stopped running and made a nose dive in a pile of bricks, causing him serious injuries to his legs and arms. He was immediately rushed to a hospital in New Jersey where he was given excellent attention. Captain McVey is a member of the Universal African Royal Guards, attached to the Colonel's retinue as an attachance on this staff. He has performed very good service. Our advice to you Me is to continue the good fight and victory will be yours. BAPTISM Edward A. Sower was baptized at Liberty Hill, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward M. Sower of New York, and Master B. bofers of said Division No. 14. Master B. is the youngest member in the Divi- tion 1898. --- Linous Charles, a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, who was sentenced to two months' imprisonment on May 24th for last alleged contempt of court, is now lamenting the loss of $1,000, all his savings, handed over by his young wife, it is alleged, to two individuals who promised to secure his release. It will be remembered that shortly after the trial of Marcus Garvey was begun Charles was arrested in the corridor of the court building and taken before Judge Mack, charged with contempt of court for intimidating a witness. Captain "Mulzac, and Sidney de Bourg, ex-employee of the Black Star Line, Inc., and the U. N. I. A., respectively, who were appearing as witnesses, for the prosecution and on whose complaint, Charles was arrested, testified that Charles had threatened to get them if they gave evidence against Mr. Garvey. Charles vehemently denied the allegations and told the court he had been framed up. He was found guilty, Judge Mack sentencing him to six months' imprisonment, taking into consideration, as he said, the fact that Charles had served with distinction in the war and had been wounded several times. This sentence was later reduced to two months following a plea for clemency by the defendant on the ground that his wife was soon to become a mother. But further misfortune was in waiting. As he served his sentence in Essex County jail he received three visits from his wife and two other persons, who, it is alleged, represented themselves as anxious to procure his release on bail, and was induced to part with his life savings. Released after serving his term, he tried in vain to get back his money, and court proceeding, which promise to furnish some interesting additions on his troubles followed. Police Court Proceedings On Wednesday last Alice Salitch dressmaker of 201 West 147th street, New York City, and Julius Rainford, real estate dealer, of the same address, 46 and 38 years of age, respectively, appeared before Magistrate McKinley at Heights Court, New York, charged with acting together and in concern with each other to steal $1,000 from Mrs. Charles, wife of Linous Charles, by representing that her husband, who was in Essex County Hall, was under $10,000 ball, and that if she would give them $1,000 they would put up the balance and have her husband released in said ball. Mr. Walter H. Carpenter, attorney (white), defended Mrs. Salitch, and theendant Rainford was represented by Mr. C. W. McDougall. The District Attorney conducted the prosecution. Complainant Testifies Mrs. Catherine Charles, a mere girl, 16 years of age, was the first witness. She said she knew Mrs. Saltch for about three years. She knew Defendant Rainford only since her husband was incarcerated. On the night of the 24th of May last she went to Mrs. Saltch's apartment as a result of a message she received, and there saw the two defendants. Mrs. Saltch told her she saw her husband was in trouble and under $10,000 ball and asked if she had any money. She replied that her husband had $1,000 whereupon Mrs. Saltch told her to get it and she would get Mr. Rainford to put $10,000 with it and get ball. She SALE OF WOOL Embroidered SERGE DRESSES $374 told. Defendant Salich, she would have to consult her husband, and, accordingly, she, with the two defendants, visited her husband at the Green County Jail on three different occasions and secured his signature to certain papers, after which the $1,000 was withdrawn from the Post Office Savings Bank, and the Gotham National Bank. The money was given to Mrs. Salich in three amounts. First $450, then $400, then $150. She would give Mrs. Salich the money, who handed it to Mr. Rainford, and the latter would give the receipt. Subsequently Mrs. Salich asked her for the three receipts and she gave them to her aunt received a receipt for $1,000: A Threat, Red Candles and Cards "She went upstairs," Mrs. Charles continued, and "came back and said, 'Let me see if the receipt is right. Something is missing, and I want to change it.' I asked her two hours after for the receipt and she said she will keep it because I was nervous. When my husband came I asked again for the receipt, and she would not give it to me. I asked for it repeatedly and she said my husband will get back all his papers, and, if he talks, his life would not be worth two cents." The witness then told of her final effort to get the money, when, with her husband, she went to Mrs. Salitch's apartment. There were many people there, she declared, adding there were red candles burning and card reading was going on. Subsequently she went with her husband to the District Attorney's office and laid a complaint. Evidence of Linous Charles Lincoln Charles was next called. He testified to signing papers brought to the Essex County Jail by his wife so that the money could be drawn. He corroborated his wife's evidence in regard to the visits of the defendants to the jail and their promise to get him out on ball. Describing one of the vials, he said: "Mr. Rainford and Mrs. Saitch and my wife came back again. Mr. Rainford asked me to sign. I did not sign very good. I was excited: The officer said the visiting time was up and Mr. Rainford took $5 to give the gentleman at the desk to let me sign. The gentleman said, 'I don't take graft.' He didn't take 'the money. I finished signing.' What An Attorney Said Continuing, the witness said shortly after his release, he went to Mrs. Salutch's apartment and met his wife crying and saying that Mrs. Salutch had said the detectives were looking for him and he must not go to 125th street. That same lawyer (pointing to Attorney McDougall) was upstairs. Mr. McDougall told me not to go and tell the priest anything about the $1,000. If I did, I would get the people in trouble. That they will get me a good job and I will make more money; that several other men have cases before and they take it in hand and they win the case." The witness then related an offer by Mr. Rainford to give him $700, telling them the rest of the money was spent for graft. He refused the part. He did not see Mr. Rainford with any money, however. It was said to be in the safe. He then complained to the Legal Aid Society. Mrs. Saltch visited the office of the Legal Aid and, after an interview with the officer, left to bring back some of the money but never returned. Dougall asked: Q. You say I was in the apartment since your release from prison? Yes, you were there. Q. Do you know I was Marcus Garvey's attorney at the time you were sent to jail? Yes. Q. And you know that you were convicted for contempt because of alleged threats to do injury to witnesses testifying against Marcus Garvey? (No answer.) Q. On what grounds were you convicted for contempt of court? It is said I threatened witnesses who had testified. Q. You know I was Mr. Garvey's attorney at that time? Yes. Q. You know Mr. Garvey and I had a misunderstanding and as a result I withdrew or was dismissed from the case? I know nothing about it. Q.-You know I was not fit the case when you were sent to prison? I saw you that day at the court before my case was called. Q.-You do know I conducted the case for Mr. Garvey for two days? I do not know. Was the day you were sent to prison the first time, you were there? The first day in my life I went near the old office building. golden worm: do so. The correspondent the lawyer used on—Charles, and Mike Smith said 12 Charles would get $1,000 (the Mike Smith) would get her county to put up $20,000 and supply ball. The witness was examined briefly by Attorney Carpenter. Legal Aid Officer Testifies Mr. Fabrigan, counsel at law, was next called. He said he was an officer of the Volunteer Aid Society. In the early part of September the defendant Saitch visited his office in company with Mr. Limous Charles. Mrs. Saitch and a lady with her sat down on the ground floor of the Criminal Courts Building and he started the conversation. He told Mrs. Saitch he would ask Charles to repeat a statement he had made to him after which he would question her about it. Before doing so, he told her he wanted it to be understood she was in the office of the Volunteer Defense Society, she was not in the district attorney's office. He then called upon Charles to narrate the story previously told. Charles did so at some length. Then he turned to Mrs. Saitch and said: "Charles said his wife gave him Rainford $1,000, and it was to be used to get him out on bail." Did you get the $1,000 as Charles said?" Mrs. Saitch replied: "That is true." He then asked: "Did you use the money for ball?" Mrs. Saitch replied: "I cannot tell you anything about that. I am not a business woman. I know nothing about business affairs and am not in a position to tell you anything about that." He then said: "You came here for the purpose of settling with Charles. Of course you have not got to tell anything." Mrs. Saitch said: "I think it would be better to bring my husband down." That happened about 10 o'clock in the morning. He then said to Mrs. Saitch: "Are you going to bring the money down?" She said, "A part." He said: "Can you bring half?" She said, "I will. I will be here about noon." He then asked her to make an appointment for 12:15 p. m., and she did. At 12:15 he was in his office waiting for her to appear. Charles came, but neither Mrs. Saitch nor her husband came. He had never seen them since. This closed the case for the prosecution. Referred for General Sessions Attorneys Carpenter- and McDougall moved to dismiss on the ground that a prima facie case had not been made out. The motions were denied. The attorneys then waived examination of the defendants, and defendants were held in $2,500 ball each for the General Sessions. UNLUCKY? Then wear this Mystic Perpetent.

The world was more open to right than left, and slaves and slaves than the working world of the name of human history. Every year that is slavery, and those other difficulties, is properly understood. are presented more than the greatest things of human history and steppeous biodiversity. Now one of the world's greatest expositions has unsparked palaces, more spacious than the astrologer whose name is seldom remembered. Every word is the palace of a human thought, and in scientific astrology we possess the charm with which to call those ancient thoughts back to fullest life. A concept cannot exist without a word. No concept can exist without a sign, whether by word or anything else. Does the concept exist first? sometimes ask. No. The concept and sign are simultaneous, but, in strict logic, the sign, being the condition of a concept, may really be said to come first. After a time words may be dropped. It is then when we try to remember the old word that gave birth to our concept. Then it is when we are led to imagine that concepts come first and words afterwards. Difficult to realize this may be, but 'tis true. We are so acquainted to think, without words that we can hardly realise the fact that originally no conceptual thought was possible without these or other signs. AFRICAN ART Attention in Paris has long been attracted by African art, and now collectors everywhere are procuring specimens of it. Some time ago the Brooklyn Museum exhibited a collection which represented the arts and industries of the Negro tribes of Central Africa. Stewart Culin, of the museum's staff, gathered the objects in Europe. "Of all the exotic arts," says Mr. Culin, "the most popular in the last quarter of the Brooklyn Museum." "From which our world is seeking stimulation, the writer regards it as the most vital, far outclassing that of Polynesia, with which it has affinities. "The first notable appreciation of the aesthetic value of Negro sculpture, the form in which this art finds its most obvious expression, occurred seventeen years ago in Paris among a small society of amateurs, collectors, sculptors and painters. From Paris the interest extended to Germany, and subsequently, through the efforts of one or two individuals, to America. "The art of the Negro has no chronology, nor can we say whether the objects exhibited be new or old. While their patterns seem to date from the beginning of time, it may be assumed that for the most part the things themselves are of recent manufacture. Whatever their age, it is oblivious they are the product of a living art, an exceptional, amazing, living art, with nothing that is mortuary, and all instinct with life, with human life, too, for its elemental forms are almost exclusively anthropomorphic. Wild animals occur, and, rarely, birds and reptiles, but plants never. Has Stimulating Influence "Direct, confirmation of what is here asserted is to be found in the way in which this art excites the activities of those who come under its influence. First shown among the painters and sculptors of the new school in France, it stirs all who understand it. Direct evidence of this stimulation, not only of the pictorial arts, but of kindred activities, is to be found in the new textiles and furniture which graced the museum's exhibition. "The art of wood carving is highly esteemed among the Bushongze, and sculptors in wood hold a higher place in the court than the representatives of the other crafts. An intimate relation exists between the textiles and carving industries, for not only is the form of many of the carved boxes borrowed from basketry, but the carved wood itself is ornamented with textile patterns." "Wood is the material employed ordinarily by the Negro carver, but we find also sculpture in ivory, horn and stone, the human figure being a favorite motive. Objects of carved wood are in the greatest variety and display their highest artistic perfection in the portrait Statues, the masks and folklore images and other objects in which the human form is portrayed. Of these the portrait statues of the Burhonga kings, of which examples exist at Tervueren and in the British Museum, are the finest and most notable. "Although their forms have been simplified and conventionalized, unlike the marvelous Egyptian statues which are more ornate, they have all the qualities of the African images, which are highly decorative, are more ornate than the one considered for the human form, and are and --- We live in an age when the past has barely a ghost of a chance with the future. It is in an era of most wonderful understandings and unspared prejudice, in spite of those who persist in trying to turn the world upside down, with the best minds of today revel in the past as the foundation of the accomplishments of the present and future. But in the face of these facts the Negro mind persists in marking time rather than marking paths. We continue to prepare to die instead of making preparations to live in the way we ought. This should become an important part of our thinking if we hope to keep within hailing distance of the world process forward. Negro thought must be shifted from its present trend. Too much emphasis is being placed upon the white man's responsibility for the future of the race—too little upon our own obligation in this respect. We have been pushing our program of trying to make the white man carry our burden to a criminal length in our efforts at organization. It is true that existing inequalities impede our progress. Yet we cannot rest our future upon changing these by a surplus of protest and agitation. We must think more of the urgent need of Negroes mobilizing their brain and money for achieving substantial results in the solution of our economic difficulties in America. We must have a racial aim big and broad enough to include the fortunes, and arouse the interest of the entire American Negro population. -Pittsburgh American. "BRUCE GRIT" (Dedicated to Mr John L.

Subject: "Missionary Responsibility Youth" Text: "You have the dew of Thy youth." Pa. 110.2. This is to be an external feature of the conquering Christ. He is to lift up His glorious head and march on in per- petual triumph surrounded by a happy host of valiant youth. But can we con- fidently make this claim? Do the words of our text warrant so splendid a vision? May we, with rhythmic empha- sis, declare that the loyalty of con- crusted youth is to be among the per- ennial glories of the missionary crusade? I venture to may assuredly, yes. If there be a Messianic psalm in the Paufter, this is one; and if there be a missionary strain in the ancient hymn book of the church, this is indeed such. The psalm is Messianic. In unique degree. The best and safest biblical scholarship decides not only that David pined this glowing ode, but that it is more than typical; it is "directly prophetic." In a word, it describes. Jesus the Messiah, and not even intermediately any other. When teachers like Dellitzah, Perowne and Macharen gave their adhesion to such an interpretation, we need scarcely hesitate to accept the strength and stimulus it yields. The psalm is the more notable because it irreverses such singularly abundant recognition in the New Testament, Our Lord drew emphatic and repeated attention to it as Messianic, and there is no single portion of the Old Testament so frequently alluded to by New, Testament writers. We stand, then on the rock of assumed truth when we declare this psalm to be a graphic portraiture of the crowned Lord of all. In the verse from which we read our text the kingdom of the heavenly King is described in relation to its subjects, and we have a wonderful picture of the army of the royal Conqueror. All the subjects of Messiah-King are soldiers. They are "free-will offerings". Some read it: "Thy people shall be willingnesses"; their great mark of individuality is their voluntariness. Each is an embodied willingness. It is "the day of" His "power". Better, of His army, or warfare, or array. And a "marvellous" "day" it is! His volunteers are with Him. As in brave Deborah's day "the people offer themselves willingly". They are all "in holy attire". Remember the military character of the Jewish priesthood, and you will see the big significance of the statement. All the soldiers of the heavenly King are priests, for it is a sacred war. A marvellous scene indeed! Yet, still the wonder grows! The strangely grand feature is that an in- numerable host of young men are marching with the glorious Lord. Cries the thrilled sea: The margin of the Revised Version reads it still more 'decisively: "Thy youth are to thee as the dew." So, in noblest poetry expressive of yet noble fact, the young men who shall light with Christ and for Christ are compared to the bustrous dewdrops of the morning. What an imbibing and signiflnt indecision of the missionary agency of young men! For, be it noted, that the special reference is to young men. A great expositor and scholar remarks: "The word youth in this picture-que statement means young men and women." But it is in special accord with Oriental modes of thought and life that Christ's young men, as distinguished from His young women, are singled out and representatively referred to. How great a part young men are designed to play in the wars of God! The youth are to thee as the dew. [As] from the womb of the morning. Perhaps a hint, as gaudious as it is portent, that from the very motions of their life they are to be devoted to Emmanuel's service. "The youth are to thee as the dew"; their service is of our mistress and heavily origin. "As the dew"; their influence shall be wide diffused over the whole earth. "As the dew"; they shall be an innumerable host, comparable to the copious dowelf of an Eastern land. "As the dew"; they shall joke the earth beautiful and fruitful. "As the dew"; bright and refreshing shall their ministry be. "As the dew"; a strange blending of pruneness and potency shall mark their devotion. "As the dew"; starting oftimes from silence and concealment, with sudden and surprising power they shall light upon the world as the dew falleth on the ground. Says good Matthew Henry: "The dew of the youth is a numerous, illustrious, hopeful showoff young people flocking to Christ, which would be to the world as dew to the ground, to make it fruitful." Says Dr. Morison: "It is delightful for young men to realize that there is in the volume of the Book so interesting a representation of such of them as by faith have given themselves up unreservedly to the military service of their Lord." I want to regard my text as suggesting: (1) The responsibility of youth to Christ in His conquest of the world. (2) The manifest appropriateness of such responsibility. (1) This sure word of prophecy is at home and abroad, a present-day fact. Never warn it no gloriously true as now. "Thou haint the dew of Thy youth, O Christ." "Thou haint Thy young men in the war as never before!" Look at the splendid devotion of consecrated youth in the work of the Lord at home. What would the churches be without the dew of the youth? What religions or philanthropic institution but would fail, if it did not fall, were the dew of the youth withdrawn? The Christianist congregations of America present a splendid proposition of youth—moth-grader than is often supposed. Rebbbath schools are largely taught by A LARGE SIZE PICTURE OF MARCUS GARVEY sew gray boards upon the tank. Temperance work is greatly adapted to appreciate youth. New lay is part of the middle evangelism of Methodism is conducted by youth. And as in the maintenance of the most Christianity of all seasons—the foreign missionary propaganda—it is perhaps, but finally realized how growth it depends upon the dew of the youth. Think of the vivacious host, the journ company, of juvenile collector! And how large a proportion of so-called adult collectors are young men and women! And how impressive a manifestation of goal for the salvation of the world is found in the ranks of godly youths and maldens! This, too, is but the repetition of history. Nor can we marvel; for the Bible itself makes so much of youth and its gracious possibilities. The oldest book of our literature shines with uning youthfulness. All along the vistas of Christian history Christ has had the dew of His youth. Shakespeare in "Cymbellino" speaks of one "who in his spring became a harvest," and in the spiritual world there have been full many such—from the apostolic days downward apostolic deeds have been done for Christ by youth. There is no more immortal apostle than John, and he was the youngest of the band, "acceded beyond heroic fame." Luther shook the world when under thirty. St. Francis of Assisi—sweet St. Francis—bade the godless world adieu when but four and twenty. St. Francis Xavier—the marvelous missionary—was in full swing of his wonderful work at thirty-six. (To be continued next week) A 1923 love market, where it is alleged four young gypsy girls were sold in marriage by their own fathers for a cash consideration of from $2,500 to $3,500 each, was revealed in statements of one of the young, husbands to Sheriff Chester Conner of Wichita, Kan. "I was told one of the girls was sold by her father for $3,500." Sheriff Conner declared. "The lowest price was $2,500." Two gypsy girls, sold to be Anha and Mary Sperro, sisters, were sold to Tom and Miller Costello, brothers, according to Sheriff Conner's information. Two sisters of the bridegrooms, Wolkey and Rosa, were also sold to the brothers of the brides, whose names were given: Steve and John Sperro. A wild celebration of the marriages brought the sheriff to the gypsy camp, four miles north of the stockyards, in the northern part of the city. Leo Mike Mitchell, twenty-one, was taken into custody. He says he bought his bride some time ago for $2,750. "I had $3,000 when I saw this girl six months ago in St. Louis," he told Sheriff Conner and Deputy Sheriff Criwell, in speaking of his wife. "I paid her father $2,750 cash for her, and now she won't work. She's got too many other husbands. I want to find her old man and get my money back," the husband added. SIR JOHN E. BRUCE Sir John E. Bruce, contributing editor of "The Negro World," is at present an inmate of the Presbyterian Hospital, Madison avenue and Savontie street, obtaining further treatment for his eyes. He expects to be discharged in three weeks' time. Every hope for his speedy recovery is entertained by the doctors. Third Assistant President General, U. M. L. A. During this diplomatic period of world affairs much has been said about Negroes as being only the subjects of white governments that never gave them the opportunity to govern themselves. Negroes are the most loyal to any governments of which they are subjects, as history will prove, but they have never been tested by these governments as to their ability to govern themselves. The Negro was continually circumscribed with very limited opportunities afforded him whenever he wished to accomplish anything creditable to the race, which brought about uneasiness and distrust with the possibility of reaction and retaliation upon certain governments—that were responsible for these deplorable conditions brought to bear against—them most loyal and defenseless subjects. In every direction criticism has been hurled against the Negro, while he was denied opportunities within these governments, so that he may imagine himself as being an inferior race, incapable of doing anything without the assistance of the other race groups and thereby incubating the doctrine, among these victims of peculiar circumstances, of the superior and inferior races that make up the human family. This education has caused many Negroes to believe that they are inferior to other races, along with many other 'obnoxious, utterances about their brains being too small and more like that of the lower animals that caused-them to be eceptric, inconstant, lazy, etc. This kind of criticism against the Negro brought about fear and dependency among many, while others became serious over the matter and sought to free themselves from this unjust criticism and false education. Since emancipation Negroes realized something must be done to better the conditions that affect their every existence, and so they traveled to different parts of the world studying conditions, absorbing much for their benefit and taking it back for the enhancement of the race industrially, commercially, politically, religiously and for all other means of development. Many of these young men and women could be found wending their way into the various institutions of learning in different parts of the world fitting themselves, for the greater things In life that would be a credit to the race. As the months and years rolled by these descendants of Africa began to see clearly the obstacles that impeded their ancestors' progress, which necessitated organization of the entire Negro race at the earliest period. Having participated in every trade and profession, as architects, mechanical, electrical, civil and mining engineers, navigators, chemists in medical and surgical science, bankers, bookkeepers, stenographers, glass manufacturers, glaziers, carpenters and masons, clothes manufacturers, tailors, cutters and pressers; in politics, religious and educational affairs, the Negro is now able to estab- both the government and world along side the millions of the world. All of the states have a degree deal from Geneva, Oslo and many other nations, who believe in four democracy. When the nation that have made it permitted the Polish-German Slovakia, Jamaica, Lithuania, Ireland, Latvia and Slovakia join their independence, tutu their adherence to the Negroes and help them to secure their independence along with other weaker races and nations, only then can we talk about world peace. Persons have always wondered what does the movement founded by the Hon. Marcus Garvey mean, and occasional off-hand statements made by person unacquainted with the organization that the U. N. I. A. is only concerned about taking all Negroes back to Africa, many people have accepted as true. The U. N. I. A. is not expecting to take all the Negroes back to Africa, because such a move is impossible, but, with trained minds as professionals, tradesmen, skilled and unskilled laborers being sent to Africa as ploneers, the redemption of Africa would become a reality. This is therefore the age when all Negroes should be constructive and set out to do something for a struggling race seeking help from every direction.

The president of the division then gave a wonderful address on the alms and objects of the U. N. I. A. The secretary read the history of the division, followed by the chaplain, who spoke briefly on the importance of a charter to a division. While the band was playing the "Hilmno Bayames" Master Elpidio Morales and Miss Jemima James lifted the Cuban flag and Master Morales recited, "Cubra Libro y Afrika sera libre" then the tri-color was raised amidst great applause, while the U. N. I. A. anthem was sung. The swearing in of the officers was the next item on the program and was duly executed by the chaplain in a very creditable manner. REPORTER. NEGRO BUSINESS WANTS COLLEGE TRAINED MEN AND WOMEN NEGRO BUSINESS WANTS COLLEGE TRAINED MEN AND WOMEN WASHINGTON.D.C.—Reports from educational institutions of every character throughout the country to the U. S. Department of Education indicate that colleges and universities are opening under auspices conditions, many of them being filled to over-slowing on the opening day. Particularly is this true of colleges and universities specializing in the training of colored young men and women. The important trend in connection with the latter is the number of students who are choosing courses giving preparation for careers in the field of business. Particular significance is attached to this growing tendency among colored students to seek careers in the business world. It denotes a marked change from the idea, which has long prevailed, to encourage the more promising college men and women to enter the fields of medicine, dentistry, or pedagogy as a life work. The change, it is stated, is caused by the appeal which is being made by colored banks, insurance companies, and other colored business enterprises to colored institutions of learning to devote more attention in the future than has been true in the past to the training of men for careers in the field of business. As evidence of the interest being manifested in this matter, at a recent meeting of the National Negro Insurance Association, a resolution was passed authorizing the appropriation of funds to establish chairs of insurance at Howard University, Washington, D. C.; Wiley University, Marshall, Texas, and Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga. Among the insurance companies underwriting this appropriation are the Standard Life Insurance Company, of Atlanta, Ga.; the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, Durham, N. C., and the Mississippi Life Insurance Company of Memphis, Tenn. Indicative of this demand for trained men, a broadcat message has been sent out by W. H. King, vice-president of the Standard Life Insurance Company and former director of agencies, in which he urges colored college men to adopt business as a profession. Mr. King in his message invites attention to the great opportunities offered in the insurance field, stating in connection with his company that "as fertile as our territory is, which covers twelve States and the District of Columbia, in which more than 7,000,000 colored people live, within a few months Standard Life will be licensed in nine other States, where some 3,000,000 additional colored people live." The appeal to young, colored women to enter the business world was recently made by Dr. Sadio T. Mossell, in which she set forth the important part which colored women are now playing in the successful business enterprises operated by colored people. CENTRAL FRANCISCO DIV., CAMAGUEY, CUBA On Sunday, the 9th, there was an enthusiastic gathering at the mass meeting held at our Liberty Hall. The meeting was opened with the singing of 'the opening ode,' followed with prayer by the chaplain. The first vice-president, Mr. Stephen Pitkin, presided and gave a brief address, taking as his test Galatians 5:1. 'Stand fast, therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage." The address was impressive and thoughtful and was well appreciated by the audience. Miss Francella Coleman gave a soil entitled "The Joy of Serving Garvey." Miss Evelyn Hamilton delivered a timely address, which merited the hearty applause which was accorded her at the conclusion of her talk. The choir rendered a fine selection entitled "Pleasant Are Thy Courts." At 10:30 the meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian anthem. SECRETARY.

Hair Seed Magic Wonder Hair Grower $500 Reward If I Fail to Grow Hair PHILADELPHIA DIVISION IS TAKING CARE OF ITS MEMBERS PHILADELPHIA DIVISION IS TAKING CARE OF ITS MEMBERS Up-to-Date Medical Clinic Doing Valuable Work From week to week we shall recount the work of each auxiliary and department of this division. This week we made inquiry into the actual working of the Medical Department. We not only found it a great help to the members, but dare to recommend each division of the U. N. I. A. to create such a department. Because of the cleanliness and sanitation of the little room on the second floor at 1810 South street, one Ands himself attracted, and thus it we asked Dr. Francis, president of the division, what caused him to create this medical department that controls the wonderful little clinic downstairs. "Our membership is large," said the doctor, "and many of them are poor working folks. So many sick reports would come in that we were not satisfied to have the Black Cross Nurses visit them only, but we wanted them to have medical attention practically free. Putting it to the membership was the next step. They readily agreed with the idea and—but suppose you run down and see Dr. Hosen, he will tell you all about the work were doing." I thanked the doctor and hired me to the second floor, "Come in," said Dr. Mozan Hosien. My first question brought the answer that Dr. William Benjamin Cooper is in charge. "I simply ask him" he said. "Oh, yes! This is a modern little office. Look!" A Thompson & Plaster x-ray machine was what I looked at, and provisions are made here for developing the pictures. Fine! There are fitted appliances for any minor operation and diseases of a not too serious nature are being combatted. Most of the prescriptions are filled right on the spot. Nurses, indeed! A trained nurse is employed by the association, and she has assistants. If there is need for one in any case the doctor orders, and it is finished. All of which is the production of one unit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Only members have the privilege of this clinic, and from five to twenty may be seen waiting daily for consultation or treatment. Besides each sick person, if in financial straits, is given $3 per week for four weeks, thereby cutting down want and privation. These are the things that Christ taught and the churches of today fail to do—tend the sick, feed the hungry, care for the needy. Let other Negro organizations do this and stop criticizing the U. N. L. A. In Garvey's dream of a government, the Negro's standard has been raised. Dreams and visions are essential to twentieth century progress. Keep on dreading, Marcus Garvey, until 300,000 Negroes shall well then solve into a great nation. If we do so more than put our doctors, lawyers, and mechanics to the threat, we shall have done well. Let our members and friends watch. The Negro World every week for the work of one of the departments of the Philia tephra Division. Let Negroes join hands and hearts with Negroes.

At 6 a. m. the National Anthem of the Republic of Nicaragua was played while the Nicaraguan flag was hoisted aloft, then the tri-color of the Universal, the Red, Black and Green, was also hoisted, while the cannons under the charge of our gunners roared out a salute as each flag was unfurled to the gentle tropical breeze. Great credit must be given to the ladies of the division for the manner in which they decorated the hall. Divine service was held at 10:30 a.m. our chapel officiating.

We must say that the merchants have always helped us in our program. The governor of the city also closed his office in honor of the day. The procession started at 1:45, and consisted of the units, officers and members of the association, the Odd Fellows with their banners and flags, the Moravian school, children, the Anglican brigade, and other benevolent societies. The procession came to a halt at the large enclosure in front of the governor's palace, where addresses were delivered in Spanish and in English. The day will long be remembered in Bluefields, and on this day we take this opportunity of wishing the divisions all over the world great success in the coming year.

Con el mejor deseo por vuestro exito, tengo el honor de ser. Vuestro obediente servidor, MARCUS GARVEY, Presidente-General, Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. Lugarra mundial que arrastraria a Almania, Franca, Rusia y Polonia es inevitable, en caso de que cualquier estado extranjero intervenga con planes para una revolución roja en Alemania, declararon los funcionarios de la Tercera Internacional. Esta institución está considerando la apelación por ayuda de los comunistas alemanes. Es probable que se llegue a una decisión antes de fines de semana. La rendición incondicional del gobierno aleman a Francia sobre la cuestión de las reparaciones precipitará los acontecimientos. Nuestro Honorable Presidente Express Su Gratitud a las Mases—La Traición de las Clases y de los Elementos que Compliran—La Lealtad de las Mases Indíaye Grandemente en la Dirección Para Continuar su Labor—La Historia de Nuestro Movimiento Será Escrita y Explicará la Actitud Hipócrita de loq Tal Llamados Directores de la Raza Se ha pedido extraoficialmente a los dirigentes comunistas alemanes que no traten de derrocar al presente el gobierno de Berlin, prometiéndeles sin embargo la ayuda de Rusia en caso de que estalle alli una revuelta, inmediatamente. La actitud definitiva del soviet depende en gran parte de la que asuman las otras potencias en caso de que estalle en Alemania una revolución comunista. A vosotros en este día reintegró mi mas profunda demostración de gratitud por la expléndida manifestación de lealtad hacia mi conferida, durante mi reciente proceso por defender los derechos de la raza. Vosotros habeis satisfecho mis aspiraciones con vuestra conducta al convertíros en un pueblo que se afana y labora por su propia emancipación. Desde días antes de la rendición, los rojos alemanes estaban amenazando con revueltas y en muchas regiones del país se presentaron batallas entre los comunitas y la policía. El soviet está afento a los movimientos de la dictadura en Munich, tras de la cual están los fascistas y se dice que el general Ludendorff. El que fuimos juzgados por el caracter de nuestro elemento de antaño, no cabe la menor duda; pero vuestras manifestaciones han demostrado una vez mas que sois un nuevo pueblo que posee nuevos ideales. Por medio de vuestra fe, habéis establecido un nuevo estandarte por el cual nuestra raza, bajo la dirección de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, será juzgada en el futuro. El desarrollo de la dictadura militar de essler dira si se presenta la lucha entre las filas conunistas y republicanas de una parte y de la otra las monarquias y militaristas. Rusia no dejará perecer a los obreros alemanes. A vosotros, las masas, es a quiénes tengo que agradecer por vuestra consolidada ayuda. Elementos de las clases intentaron traicionarme, entregándome a aquellos que temporalmente me privaron de la libertad, pero por vuestro valor y determinación, pronto me halle, en posición de poder presentar mi caso ante el mundo y los hombres de conciencia no pasaron por desapercibido vuestro clamor de "hágase justicia." La acción de Baviera, que acaba de nombrar un dictador, es un paso de lo más grave, una señal de tormenta. La cuestión critica es esta será obligado el gobierno de Von Knilling a ceder el puesto a un dictador? Es posible, se pregunta el pueblo, que Munich, haya meramente descerrido la cortina tras la cual los fascistas bavaros han estado activos por semanas. Puede se hayan preparado para cosas mayores que la demostración de su fuerza. De todos modos, Baviera ha lanzado la pelota y Alemania confronta su prueba suprema. Al relatar la historia de mi proceso y de mi labor, de nuevo he de ilustrar con hechos la actitud hipócrita de individuos de nuestro propio pueblo, hombres que se conceptuan directores. Debemos estar alerta para contrarrestar sus artimañas, en nuestro esfuerzo por escalar la cúspe de nuestras aspiraciones. Para traición hipocrecia no creo podamos hallar miembros de cualquier otra raza tan inclinados a ello como en la nuestra. La cuestión está planteada entre la república y la monarquia, con los fascistas al lado de la ultima. No obstante, los fascistas bavaros no están unidos. Todos van en distintas direcciones. Las principales figuras del movimiento son el doctor Hitler y Von Kahr. Indudablemente que una lucha a muerte se empenara entre los partidos políticos. El proceso en contra de mi persona ha añadido a mis conocimientos nueva información de intrigas a las cuales-han descendido unos con el propósito de injuriar a otros en la rivalidad por influencia, soporte y posición. Sin embargo, yo estoy sumamente agradecido, porque vosotros, las masas, abrigáis en vuestro corazón el espíritu de reconocimiento y de apreciación, recompensando a aquellos que con la mejor intención y desinteresadamente rinden sus servicios a la causa. Baviera ha declarado el tratado de Versalles nulo y vicioso. Los dirigentes nacionalistas estan abiertamente denunciando al gobierno de Berlin por haberse rendido a Francia. El general Ludendorff ex-jefe de estado mayor de von Hindenburg, aparece como el primer autor del golpe nacionalista. Ahora reside en Baviera. Estoy fortificado por vuestro incomparable soporte, para continuar en la lucha por la reconquista de nuestros derechos y la emancipación absoluta de la madre patria. Nuestros amigos y adeptos a nuestra justa causa constituyen en gran número; tenemos, sin embargo, entre nuestro elemento un pequeño número de refractarios, pero el triunfo final de nuestro ideal sagrado, justificará el tiempo invertido en combatirles en el camino hacia nuestras realizaciones. En Baviera se ha proclamado la ley marcial. Los dirigentes bivaros niegan toda idea de despolismo, calificando a su movimiento de dictadura constitucional. Herr Gessler, dictador de Baviera, ha nombrado al general Von Lossow comandante en jeffe del Reichswer. Os aseguro hoy mas que numca mi mas alta apreciación por vuestra bondad manifestada durante mis ultimos días de prueba y por vosotros y los vuestros estare dispuesto a someterme al mayor de todos los sacrificios. Permaneced firmes en vuestra advocación al respeto de todo derecho humano y mantened en alto el estandarte por la práctica de la justicia. Zayas Denuncia Rumores Perjudiciales a Cuha En la replica que el presidente de Cuba, doctor Zayas, dio a los interpretaciones sobre su contestación a la asamblea de veterinarios y patriotas cubanos, replica dirigida al director de un diario de la oposición, consta el siguiente parrafo que ha sido comentado excepcionalmente por el diario en cuestión: Los enemigos de nuestro movimiento quienes una y otra vez han intentado destruirlo con su politica vengativa, tarde o temprano han de recojer el fruto de sus maldades. Esos individuos han puesto en juego todo su maquiavelismo presentandonos antes la opinión pública como una manada de demagogos, pero en no lejano día la luz de la razón iluminará su conciencia y cual Judas Iscariote, con gran arrepentimiento implorarán al cielo la purificación de su alma. Ha parcido mal, dice el presidente de Cuba, que yo deplore que la exposición de los veteranos y patriotas, pueda inducir a pensar que vivimos en la mayor depravación, y así se manoscabe nuestro crédito. No he querido ofender, pues no acostumbro hacerlo, ni al repeliendo ofensas, pero conciente de las asechanzas que rodean a nuestra nacionalidad he debido señalar un peligro, que claramente es esboza cuando a diario circulan absurdos rumores estableciendo similitud entre supuestas exigencias de otros gobiernos, aunque amigo, extranjero, y las aspiraciones espuestos por veteranos y patriotas; no siempre con ecuanimidad y frecuentemente cop amenzas. Por medio de nuestra determinación y de nuestros esfuerzos supremos, he de repetiros nuestra raza se verá reconocida y nuestra Africa se verá emancipada y vosotros y yo nos hallaremos en el lado derecho, sosteniendo los sagrados principios de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, por la cual al presente somos aun avejados, criticados y perseguidos, labor malévola de los que en cincuenta años de dirección parcial, no han adquirido una infima parte de lo que nuestra organización ha realizado en el corto período de su instalación. Pugilistas de la Raza en Exhibición La lucha por nuestra emancipación y la libertad de nuestra nación ha de continuar sin interrupción hasta conquistar la victoria. No podemos ni debemos rendirnos al menor signo de oposición; prueba de ello lo testifica vuestra demostración reciente, con motivo del proceso a que fui sometido. No solamente el continente americano y las antillas han demostrado la potencia de nuestro movimiento, sino que también la madre patria ha despertado del letargo de tantos años y dentro de poco el universo entero esouchará su voz. Siki, el puiglista senegales, excampeón mundial de peso semimáximo, y Jack Johnson, excampeón del universo de peso hiáximo, contenderán en un encuentro a seis Desde lo mas profundo de mi alma os doy las gracias por vuestra nobleza de espíritu manifes- apuntes de tablica de Quintos Chicas. El lago hace poco a los Estados Unidos, pero a pesar de sus adriñas, los promotores americanos la han concedido muy pocas stencilla y todavía no ha logrado que en le conciéte un buen encuentro. Monarcas a la Moderna Jorge III debe revolversa en su tumba ante el espectáculo que presentan los monarcas del dia. Estalla una revolución en España, encabezada por el ejercito y la marina. Ordena acaso el rey Alfonso a un noble grande que salga y amenace a los jefes-con la decapitación si no adican de su insensatez? No lo hace. En vez de ello, se entretiene en las cercanias del telefono y cuando suena el timbre descuelga el receptor y escucha atentamente mientras el general Primo de Rivera le dice que el, Primo de Rivera, tiene la mayoría de votos y penso que a Su Majestad le agradera saberlo. Alfonso contesta "si" y se va a dar un paseo. No es precisamente la forma que usaba Jorge III pero hasta ahora no le ha costado ninguna colonia. Uno de los pocos monarcas que quedan es Guillermina de Holanda que hace pocos, días celebrara su vigesimo quinto aniversario de reinado sobre los Paises Bajos. Hay un rumor, lo dice alguien, de que los salarios de los funcionarios del gobierno deberian ser reducidos. Afirma Guillermina, "magnifico, eso significa otro tanto para mi? No. Muy a disgusto de Jorge III escribe una carta al ministro de hacia informandole de que si ha de haber alguna reduction en salarios debe haber una correspondiente reduction en la asignación regia. Para un soberano a la antigua esto podria no parece magnificiente, pero, ahora probamente no cause ningun sentimiento hostil en los Paises Bajos. Corre la anectoda de que durante la guerra Jorge V pregunto al otro Jorge que era primer ministro, si la Gran Bretaña se sentiria agradada con su abdicación, asegurando su disposición a hacer el sacrificio, y se dice que Lloyd George replicó que no era necesario; de hecho, para el rey, era extraordinariamente aconseble mantenerse en el empleo de rey. No puede uno imaginarse a un monarca de los tiempos antiguos haciendo tal consulta, pero en alguna forma no debilita el respeto que siente por el soberano que la hizo, ni el trono de ese monarca ha trepidado visiblemente a consecuencia de la publicación de la anectoda. Indudablemente, la forma de conducirse un monarca de los tiempos modernos no habrá sido adecuada a un monarca de los antiguos, pero la actual no es una de las épocas pasadas. Era de Paz en la República Dominicana El consul general en Nueva York, de la república Dominicana, señor don Manuel de J. Canacho, trasmite para publicación en la prensa una nota oficial de su gobierno, dedicada a desmentir las talsas noticias en circulación y que pueda crear dudas respecto, a la situación política del país, que es actualmente de paz y reorganización, y sin que aparezca ningún sintoma de malestar interno que pueda alterarla. La nota procede de la secretaria de estado de relaciones esterteriores y dice así: Ultimamente han circulado en la prensa de varios países de América y Europa alarmantes tumores acerca del estado político de esta república, legandose a almirar la existencia de una revolución en el país. Aseguro que take noticias somplamente falsas y que en los actuales momentos reina la más completa paz en el territorio dominicano. La inicia agitación que existe en el país es la que naturalmente provocan en todos los pueblos del mundo las varias etapas del proceso eleccionario, especialmente cuando cómo en el caso nuestro, se trata de ir definitivamente a la organización de un gobierno perfectamente constitucional. En la Gaceta Oficial No. 3455, de fecha 16 de agosto de 1923, el decreto del presidente provisional de la república convoca al pueblo dominicano a asambleas primarias. Estas asambleas se verificarián el 14 del mes de noviembre de 1923 y teindrán como objeto la elección de regidores, sindicos de ayuntamientos y sus respectivos suplentes; los miembros de los colegios electorales y de los consejos provinciales; gobernadores de provincias y representantes a la asamblea constituyente. Posteriormente los colegios electorales procederán a la elección del presidente de la república, y los diputados y senadores que deberán constituir las camaras legislativas. Finalmente y en la fecha que se designe, prestará el juramento constitucional el nuevo mandatario que asuna la presidencia de la república: Con la cantidad de centavos (0.60) todo el elemento de numera rush puede ser miembro de la "Associación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra".

Winning Favorable Opinion (Continued from page 3) plause). And we are not begging the others for it; we are only telling the others that we want a place, and we are going to plug away towards it. "The Stupidity of Garvey" "You know why they pay so much attention to the stupidity of Garvey! It is because Garvey does not pray for the changes that are to come, because Garvey talks about fighting for the changes that are to be. When you pray you don't disturb or move men (Applause). You touch the response in the Divine, but He does not move around these unholy places on the earth, but remains billions of miles away and sees. But He only sees. And when you pray you touch the Divine side of Him, but you don't move men. You can only move men with hard physical, material strength (Applause) so they pay attention to crazy Garvey and crazy L, N, L, A, because we talk about physical, material power and strength. They can appreciate the value of it. They don't trust their preachers nowadays, but reformers not Christian reformers, because they harmless, but political reformers. And the man who essays to lead in political reform who does not make up his mind to suffer hardships and difficulty of the hands of an organized, primitive world, is crazy, in reality, in the leadership unto himself." Prepared for Sacrifice Think God we know ourselves. We know that there will be little patient will be placed in our way to prevent us from reeling the dream and the object that we have in view, and we must be prepared so that when anything happens we will not be disappointed. Take it from me. I feel happy at the one place at the other pleasing us suffering for the law. Negro Improvement Association. And that is the spirit that we want a large number of you to have, of you who want to be leaders and must be leaders. There is no half way about it. You have to go the whole way, and during my recent trouble and this saw how many could go the whole way. We are not such fools. We know who are going the whole way and who are only going half way. But let us say to those who are only going half way, you had better make up your minds to go the whole way, because you are going to fare badly at the hands of those who are going the whole way. Because the real enemy of the cause and of our liberty is not the follow on the outside saying. I do not want to go, but the fellow who says, I am going, and then turns back. He is the fellow doing most harm, and we have our eyes on them. You know things will not always be the same. Then and Now "When you come to contemplate and consider the Universal Negro Improvement Association and just go back four years, you will find me speaking to thirteen men and women while I am now speaking to 4,000 in Liberty Hall. And when we consider I am not only talking to 4,000, but whereover I go throughout this country in one night I speak to 5,000, you will realize we have gone somewhere. And if you contemplate audiences as you see in Liberty Hall tonight in every community where ten thousand Negroes live in this country, if you can contemplate audiences like this in communities in the West Jolies, where ten and fifteen thousand Negroes live, then you will realize the full strength of the Universal-Negro Improvement Association. There is no part of this country or of the western world where we go and, preach the doctrine of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that the people do not assemble in large numbers as you do in Liberty Hall tonight. That shows that you have stirred your race the world over, and that shows that Africa is preparing for that long and glorious march. COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT Universal Negro Improvement Assn. NOTICE! NOTICE!! NOTICE!!! The President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, on his tour of the nation, has been approached by hundreds of loyal members and well wishers of the Association in complaints against the treatment they have received from several of the various departments of the Organization at headquarters, and from individual officers and employees at headquarters, as also against the conduct of certain Executive Officers whilst on the field. The President-General is grieved the many complaints and hereby begs to announce that a Complaint Department is now established and attached to his office. All persons having complaints to make against any department officer or employee of the Organization will please write to COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT P. 8.—If you love the Organization and desire to see it improve its service to the raba, then you will not fail to report any irregularity, on the part of officials, officers and employee of the Organization, caring not whom the person be if he or she has done anything improper or unconstitutional, report it. If you have any complaints send them to now and don't wait until it is too late. THE VILLAGE OF THE VILLAGE "Before me, I would not throw away my life for nothing. Before me, I would not throw away three months for nothing in jail, before me, I would not throw away five or fifteen years for nothing in jail, if I did not see some good in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. If I did not see some here for the Red, Black and Green, I would not waste one second of my time talking about the Unlabeled Negro Improvement Association. But I have before me the vision of the future, the vision of redeemed Africa, of a country of millions of free men who will take unto themselves a power of their own. That vision strengthens me; that vision buys me up for service and for sacrifice. Some men laugh to-day. Others laughed long before, but have changed their laughter. Some people laughed at me four and five years ago and said I was wasting time, and I was throwing away my youth, but I am laughing at them now. Others are laughing at us now, because, apparently, the white man seems to be against us. What the hell do we care?" (Laughter). The Garvey of To-Morrow "We have done nothing to offend the white man. We are not going-to-offend anybody. But you know if somebody steals something from you and shows an inclination to keep it, that somebody is never pleased when you ask for it. And, therefore, if that somebody gets offended, what do you care? All you want is your goods, is not that so? Therefore, if white folks in Africa or anywhere want to be sore or vexed with Garvey, that is their bad luck. All that Garvey is concerned about is getting the goods. And they had better deliver it quick, too. Because the dangers not in Marcuus Garvey of today, I am really a Christian. (Laughter.) I would not do harm to my brother. I would not even do harm to my greatest enemy. I am just a kind of a Sabbath school) but compared with the Garvey that is going to follow. And all I am doing now is preparing the minds of men and asking these gentlemen who have anything for the Negro to give it up before trouble comes. That is all I am asking to today. Three Stages of Approach "As I said, we believe in the three stages of approach. Of the person who has something for us or for you, first, ask for it, in a decent and quiet way. Next, bestow yourself in seriousness and demand the thing. And the third and last resort, tight to get that thing. Now, I am engaged in the first stage of the game. I am just acquainting you and asking you to give the thing up. And whatsoever time it takes, whatsoever time it is necessary to acquaint everybody of the fact that they have something for us and we want it. I am going to take that time. The trait is when we have fully gotten all the people organized to realize they have lost something. And if they wait until that time when we have succeeded in acquainting all the folks that we have lost something, then if they will not give up that something and am still living I will just make a demand, and we are not going to spend much time demanding. If I am still here I am going to wake the fight to the very end of the job to get the job when I leave to it." A New Era Now we are well mind understand that we are talking not the language of George Washington, we are talking not the language of Garibaldi, not the language of Trinity and Lemm, not the language of Musculum, we are talking not in the language of Ghana, but in the language of men who are not forced to approach the states of both our own liberty for humanity. And the world must judge that we are living in a new age and a new era, and the new Negro is here and is going to make his impact that will not be missed. We are going to write more stories about the pages of British history, to tell a new tale, the Ethiopian to the audience and that the name Ethiopia should be briefly known more. And therefore. I am going to leave you for four weeks. I am supposed to be going on my vacation. Nevertheless, I am going to speak all the way up until I reach where I am supposed to me. I would not have gone so early, but my wife must have gone so early, but my wife must have gone so early. I think of everybody the before I think of her, and since I don't like to be a naughty, I am taking her off on the Pacific Coast to see if I will help in recuperating her. She has suffered mentally and physically during the time I was incarcerated, and worked herself to a thread in helping I am grateful to you for your kindness and generosity when you were here. I am grateful for your kindness and generosity and I have benefited from your generosity. I should try to keep in touch with you at least every Sunday night, so that you can know what we are doing at the other end of the country. I may you will continue the good work of the organization, and will take care in this great and honorable cause" (Appeal). Mr. Garvey then introduced Alcornman John William Smith, who he said was a friend of the association. He had to compliment those of his hearers who had given Mr. Smith their support at the primaries. George Harris, who was unsuccessful in the Republican primaries, was the man who, when the association applied for permission to have a Rose Day, when all the white men yoked to allow it, said no. He slipped-by at the last election, but the association was waiting for him. George Harris would also be remembered as one of the eight who wrote the infamous letter to the Attorney-General of the United States, stating that the association was a band of anarchists; that Garvey was disloyal and so forth and tried to imprison him and snash up the association. "I am glad," he continued, "you turned him down at the polls on last primary day, and whenever you come across the name of George Harris in anything political, draw the pen straight through his name. I am going to present to you the man who defeated George Harris in the last election, and the man who is going to run again in the person of John William Smith, who will speak to you for a few minutes. Alderman Smith's Address Mr. Smith then addressed the meeting, he said: "it was a privilege and a pleasure to unseat Mr. George W. Harris, for the reason I honestly was at the last election. Notwithstanding that fact, through some manner of means I was counted out, but has some of that fighting spirit in me that your president has been talking about. I felt I would be a derelict in my duty if I did not wage war and right wrong done to the people of Harlem. I did not come here primarily to anything about myself, because thought Mr. Garvey was going to do that, but somehow I am a little inspired here tonight, and one of things that inspires me more than a thing else in that Samuel boy, I race of people who can produce of his age who can do one half of that boy does, there is no power earth to keep that race down (please). A Worthy Man "Somewhere in the Bible—there in be some preachers here, so I will attempt to quote chapter and verse somewhere in the Book of St. John; there are these words, 'There that be line upon line and prescant upon precept, I do not know whether all of you know what that means, and doubt whether one out of one them sand people you meet know how to interpret them. I hesitantly means, I same thing is going to happen and over again! I was reading Bible today in the Book of Genesis I read of the life of people was behaved just like our President was behaved by some of his people and cast into prison. It was during the time he was in prison though I did not represent him I he was a brave, stalwart Neo-Neo, had the power to unite in thought Neo-Neo from the four centuries of earth, and I considered my man well able to do that was a worth in And so I had the privilege of to say him and I decided of a picture to go and shake his hand after him some little encounters. And I told him when he was that I did not believe the white power to unmightened with what he had stolen a dollar or all the money. I led in the world but I do believe in my heart of that country that is still there was at the back of it all." After committing on the promise of bad not being allowed in the instance, the speaker concluded with the following words of advice: Do let your enthusiasm get away with your good judgment and hurt your friends he has made by virtue has in accordance. Be careful, he direct, and whatever you do, keep permeant in your minds the fact that this movement is a wonderful one as that the U. N. I. A. has set the world thinking in the four corners of the globe. (Applause.) THE AFRICAN NATIONAL MOVEMENT Well Known Contributor Gives Brilliant Analysis of Some of the Impediments There is a keen sense of humor on the part of those who influence and control the immediate affairs of organized society, whether its expression is through Monarchy (Royalty and Parliament); Aristocracy (Clery); Commonwealth (Special Decrees); Democracy (rule of the people by elected representatives from the people), as they sit on great heights looking down on the pawns in the superb game of civic affairs, State, national, international relations, diplomacy, politics, government and war. The interest and attention of these spectators are more determined... especially when within the various solid groups one element commences to disentangle itself, conscious of its own desire to develop its inherent rights and latent talent. On the other hand, there is surprise and a feeling of novelty within the changing group itself in that it is unable in the early stages to use per-spective, get out of the surging onward tide and see its course with calm judgment as the interested observer does. What Analysis Discovers - An inquiry and analysis will discover that gradations of knowledge exist within the higher intelligence of African and Negro parties, that compose the vanguard of the new order, in their aim toward political emancipation and self-government in Africa. The difference lies more in the methods in operation than in the impossibility of the task attempted. "The progressive individuals within our race are quick in understanding, deep in thought, rational in beliefs, thorough in investigation; they are certain that there is scope to advance individually, socially, mentally and economically. They, however, lose balance, become skeptical and with a lack of vision cry out "impossible" when confronted with the work of accomplishing the African Nationalist Movement. If this was up end of the matter it would leave a chance for their enlightenment; they sometimes conciously stand in the light, holding back the growth of a righteous cause. "Africa for the Africans" is more than a slogan, it is a world challenge. As I pointed out in a lecture on "The Influence of Different Ideas on the Negro," they suffer from the effects of environment and the medium through which this dominant psychology is spread, reacting to the various stimuli used in the control of the masses. Whatever may be the historic background of a people—in our case commonly known as slavery—when their organized sentiment is coupled with religious zeal the course they pursue is safe and certain. To win their point on excuse, the fact that national ambition, in its desire for more power, land and wealth agrees to plans in which its interest is safeguarded, is forgotten.

GRACE GRAY DELONG VANSTAHL, GEORGIA scrutiny is not directed into channels portraying how groups of people become nations. A Solution A practice of today is to get within generalities, beg the question, make gestures, or play on popular feelings. "Where is the impossibility?" If there is an impossibility it may be in the minds of those who have never achieved a reasonable goal. Some happenings from everyday life will assist at this point. We are familiar with business and its methods; one man tells, another buys; one man gives, another takes; there is also mutual exchange in consideration for help given in times of stress or danger, unjust aggression, etc.-trading rights, spheres of influence, the use of tactics peculiar to national advancement. Treaties are made by Sovereign States and require competent parties to the agreement. Do we understand our detractors to say that we are capable of using these forces or not? If our students have a cooled the study of nations and how they advance into power, the greatest opportunity now presents itself, in that our diplomatic corps needs them at present, also accomplished statesmen in the near future. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League recognize mandates, spheres of influence, possessions, etc., are to be considered. They know that the sovereign rights of the natives hold good; the inlandable rights to our historic home have never been destroyed. Sharvey and the conditions resulting from it are only a small part in the knowledge of a great people. A Double Claim As a matter of fact, Africans abroad and Negroes in the Western World have a double claim; to wit; claims in equity for improvement in all countries that hold them slaves against their will. Africans did not accept slavery supinely. What about the wars of the Ashantis, Zulus, Basutus, etc.? What are the noble deeds of valour behind them? I feel sure that these parts of our real selves are only asleep; they have not been lost in the mixup that relates to a part of our history. The preschools of democracy are effectively used by numerical groups smaller than the teenage millions of Africa at home and abroad. In Asia and the Far East it has more direct tracing of our ethnic group that holds political ascendency. Africans or Norwegians going to colleges universities, attending political forums, schools of diplomacy and the science of government, will delve deeper into history, geography, international law and statemanship. The Executive Council, fully aware of the intricacies, pursues its way with understanding, the masses continue to educate itself all along the line, taking every advantage of increasing its knowledge by proper direction. Nothing impossible "Impossible" is a blockhead word and does not belong in the company of those with great tasks to accomplish. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League disdain the darkness, painting with accuracy the true state of affairs. The leadership, under which 400,000,000 African wield themselves into an interimning solidarity, teaching self-reliance and self-determination, recognizes" the "rights" that will come up for adjustment when it suggests that in countries where there is partial self-government by elected representatives from the people, it must be understood that legal methods are advised to advance the industrial.

In addition to the historic documents adopted and promulgated from the International Convention of Negro people of the world, we believe our-position was made clear. It is not expected that the program of African redemption will have an immediate general assent in our racial group because the "novelty" is a feeling that must wear off; also ability is required to grasp the trend of the times.

HUDERT J. COX. GREAT OPENING AT WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY The formal opening of Wilberforce University for the scholastic year of 1923-24 occurred Tuesday. September 18. A great throng of young men and women had come from every section of the country and from foreign parts. Students began arriving on Thursday of the week previous, but registration was not begun until the 17th. A larger number of parents accompanied their children to the opening this year than usual. Most of them came to see Wilberforce and the new James A. Shorter Hall. This building was to have been ready for occupancy on the 15th, but the contractors have been delayed, and it will not be ready until the 15th of October, according to them. President Gregg opened the year's work by bidding welcome to the students and teachers, telling them of Wilberforce and the ideals for which it stands, and admonished all to make this the most telling year in the life of this great school. He urged returning students to profit by the experience of the past, and gave every encouragement to the new students. He noted that more new students have entered this year than heretofore and that the college department is enrolling the largest class in its history. The president then introduced the new superintendent of the combined Normal and industrial department, who delivered the opening address. The department is headed by Mr. Richard C. Bundy, for fourteen years in the diplomatic service of his country. For many years Mr. Bundy was in the American Location in Liberia, Africa. Superintendent Bundy spoke to his former connection with Wilberforce, first as secretary to Professor Shorter, who was then superintendent, and later as a teacher. He said that he was entering very enthusiastically into his new work here, and both teachers and students gave him a very hearty welcome. The faculty numbered 65 best years, and some eight or ten new teachers he have added to the staff. All in all the year promises well for Wilberforce University. The interest in athletics is intense this year at Wilberforce. The football squad has been practicing for about two weeks, as the men who wish to make the team had met the coach early. The services of Coach Jefferson, the famous star player of Ohio University, have been secured. WHITE WOMAN'S OUTBURST AGAINST NEGRO CARRIER Postmaster's Rebuke INDIANAPOLIS, IND. That t the United States Government is able to protect all of its employees and has the disposition to do so is the burden of a letter received by Mrs. Otto J. Leeds, white, of this city, from Postmaster-General Harry S. New. Mrs. Leeds objected to having a colored man deliver he, mall and when the local postmaster refused to remove the carrier from his route, she wrote Postmaster-General New, threatening bodily injury to the carrier if a white man was not placed on the district. Postmaster-General New's letter has won general satisfaction from both white and colored people, not only in this State from whiche he holds, but from all over the country. The letter follows: "My Dear Madam—Your letter of July 23, complaining that a colored man is serving as mail carrier on the route on which you happen to live in Indianapolis, has been brought to my attention. I note your complaints and your implied threats directed against this man. I am further informed, as I have been on previous occasions, that you have repeatedly complained of the fact that your route was thus served, employing most intemperate language and threatening all sorts of consequences to the carrier if the matter was not arranged to your personal satisfaction. I have to say that there are a number of colored carriers in the service of the Indianapolis post office, as there are in post offices all over the country. These men have attained their positions in accordance with the requirements of law and the post office regulations. They are entitled to the respect to which faithful employees of the United States Government are entitled at all times and at all places, without regard to race, color or political consideration. The Post Office Department could not if it would, and would not if it could, be so unjust to this man as to cause his removal as the consequence of such a violent outburst as as contained in the letter over your signature, which is now before me, and the Department would remind you that all the power this government has at its command will be employed to protect its employees against violence or wrong resulting from anybody's prejudices, from whatever cause arising, so long as those employees faithfully discharge the duties which have been entrusted to them, which I am assured by the postmaster at Indianapolis, the carrier in question does. "Very respectfully yours. "HARRY S.

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Newspapermen throughout the United States are being notified of the annual convention of the National Negro Press Association that is to be held in Nashville February 15-23, 1923. In connection with this annual convention, it is learner here that the president J. Finley Wilson and the members of the Executive Committee have fully decided to push the exposition feature, so that instead of holding only a three-day's session, the association will hold sessions for a whole week. They have issued special invitations to every editor, publisher and author of any book, to send a copy of his publication (bound volume) to be placed on exposition in Nashville. The name of the publication and its author is to be printed in the back of the volume, so that while it is on exhibition the visitors may know, at a glance, who is the author and publisher. The entire week will be devoted to extolling the work of the members of the race on the line of printing, publishing and writing. The local members in Nashville are organizing to take care of the large number of visitors who will be there during that week. Some of the best talent of the race will be on the program, and will be heard to great advantage. There will be a number of open sessions so that the public will get the benefit of what is being done by the newspapermen of the country toward race uplift and advancement. PAGEANT AND BALL AT LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK A Striking Success The pageant and ball held by the ladies of the Royal Court of Ethiopia at Liberty Hall, 120 West 135th street, on Thursday night, September 27, in aid of the mortgage fund of the New York local, was a conspicuous success. A large assembly thoroughly enjoyed the program, the fashion show being educational no less than attractive. Great credit was reflected on Madame Sharper-person-Young, who worked untrigly to make the function a success. A full report of the event will appear in next week's issue of The Negro World.

SUBSCRIBE TO THE NEGRO WORLD THE INDISPENSABLE WEEKLY Dear Reader : Roland Hayes, the celebrated Negro tenor, who has had such a great success in London, Paris and Vienna, will enter on his American tour in November. His first appearance in this country will be at Boston. Pierre Monteux, the conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, was so impressed by the singing of Hayes that he named him as a first choice for soldier at the regular Boston Symphony concerts for the coming season in Boston. The announcement, of the fact moved the critics of Boston to special comment as follows: Philip Hale, Boston Herald, September 13, 1923—"It is a pleasure to find the name of Roland Hayes in the list of solosets. He richly deserves the honor." H. T. Parker, Boston Transcript, Sept. S. 1923—"Mr. Hayes, the tenor, at last and deservedly summoned in his own country to an orchestra of the first rank." Penfield Roberts, Boston Globe September 9, 1923—"The proportion of first-rate newcomers (in the list of colosse) is unusually high. Many among the local public interested in music will be especially glad to see Roland Hayes' name in the list, where it might well have appeared several seasons back. He is as great a musician as Boston has yet produced and now not without honor in his own country. "He has sung with several, leading europaeus on orchestr, and won the highest praise everywhere, not as a Negro singer, but as one of the few really fine tenors to be heard in this generation, regardless of racial and national considerations." Mr. Hayes is also engaged as so- HOW TO CONTROL OTHERS How to win love and friendship, make money, gain success, cure baskthiness, overcome life's challenges, and live life's marvelous oriental method, introduced into Spain by an ancient Moors.
