Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting:
As I journey West through the great United States of America there rises before me the vision of a new world in the accomplishment of a new people.
American Progress
To glance back to the depth from which America has climbed to a place second to none among the nations of the world is to feel inspired with confidence and hope that out of what is called our dream will rise in the future a great African commonwealth upon which future generations will look with as much pride and satisfaction as the white American citizen of today does of his country.
White Man's Country
Isay white American citizen because the pride and honor are his, in that whatever contribution we as a race have made to the progress of America was exacted of us, not of our free will, but by enforced conditions over which we had no control. It is true that in single instances we have voluntarily added our part to America's glory, but our white fellow citizens do not regard such a contribution as a title to the rights that we now claim under the Constitution. They have beyond the shadow of a doubt, made it plain that America is a white man's country—discovered, pioneered and developed by him for the benefit of his generations. In the face of this feeling we endeavor to press our claims, but, with a preponderance of competitive strength against us, we feel that the battle is lost, and that is why we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association advance the program of a country of our own.

of this American civilization, erected through the genius and perseverance of the white man, so do I feel encouraged that one day we will likewise duplicate a civilization of our own in Africa.
Pictures of Great Cities
The pictures of New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Chicago, St. Louis, Los Angeles and San Francisco will inspire us to build like cities within the Commonwealth of Africa. In the pursuit of such an object we will find much to do, and that is why each and every Negro should find a place in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Our program is large enough and embraces every phase of human activity. There is room for every one to play his part, and that is why we make a common appeal to the four hundred million members of our race to gather under our standard. With a united purpose we can march forward, making our impress upon an observant world and carving a place for ourselves in the niche of human achievement.

We who make up the Universal Negro Improvement Association are full of hope. We feel happy to live in this age of progress and change, for while men of other races are endeav-

oring to promote their interest through the changes that are necessary, we also are determined to make a change that will elevate us to the standard of progressive humanity.
Resistance and Opposition
It is not expected that we will achieve the things we desire without resistance and opposition. The good worth while has always been accomplished through the daring and dashing perseverance of those of a set purpose. The progress of other peoples brought about through their organized ingenuity stand out as encouragements to us in the struggle that we are making to reach the top. Our objective should become fixed in our minds, and we should steadily work on without ceasing or without becoming distracted.
Hopes for Renaissance
The Universal Negro Improvement Association hopes for a renaissance among us as a people that will include us among the world's active nationalistic progenitors. Our children shall, we hope, inherit our glory, and thus give to the race a perpetuation of that honor that is worthy of the ablest of the human race.
Will Not Give Up
Those of us with vision will surely not give up, but press on, hoping that by our determination to achieve we will unerringly help the cause of Africa's redemption.
With very best wishes for your success, I have the honor to be

Despicable Attempt to Disrupt Cincinnati Division Foiled OKLAHOMA KLANSMEN RIVAL BELGIAN ATROCITIES IN THE CONGO
The Pittsburgh American gives the following ipsidian account of the appearance of Hon. Marcus Garvey in the "mosey City":
Marcus Garvey. Negro nationalist and founder of the, Universal Negro Improvement Association, appeared at People's Gospel Tabernacle Monday night, October 2. Fully 5,000 people gathered to hear him. Standing room. Was at a premium inside and almost as many people were outside the tabernacle as there were inside to do honor to the provisional president of Africa and hear him speak.
The U. N. I. A. founder received a greeting never before accorded a public speaker and propagandist in Pittsburgh. It was testimony of his strength and the growing faith of the people in both his leadership and program. He was applauded to the echo from the moment he appeared, and the great audience heard him with enthusiastic and sympathetic attention.
H. L. Keith, Pittsburgh American editor, was master of the ceramies which began promptly at 8 o'clock with the audience singing "From Greenland's Icy Mountains" after which the chaplain of the local U. N. I. A. division led the assembly in prayer. "The Star Spangled Banher" was sung following the prayer, after which President Gill, of the Pittsburgh Division, outlined the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. in a brief and interesting speech. It was midst of President Gill's speech. Mr. Garvey, accompanied by Mrs. Garvey and Secretary-General Boston of the U. N. I. A., appeared. This was the signal for a great demonstration which lasted until the party had been seated on the platform and the master of ceremonies had quieted the enthusiastic audience.
At the conclusion of the address of President Gill the audience sang "God Bless Our President," after which M. S. Hunter, president of the Steel City Bank, was introduced. He delivered an address on welcome in which the enthusiasm of the audience was stirred to the very highest pitch. J. W. Gumble, of Homestead, responded to the welcome address delivered by Mr. Hunter.
The John's Family of singers followed the addresses of M. S. Hunter and J. W. Gumble. The audience was entertained by original music sung by the family of singers and a poem by the leader in which he related the virtues of Marcus Garvey and emphasized the big objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.
The master of ceremonies then gave the great audience a pleasant surprise by introducing Mrs. Garvey. She was received in a most pleasant manner and the audience insisted on having some words from her. Mrs. Garvey had not even expected an introduction to the audience and expressed herself as unprepared to deliver a speech of any kind. Yet she did speak briefly and the clearness of her thought and utterances left no doubt in the muda

Negro Thought
"The U. N. I. A. is different from any other organization. The Negro race is divided into two schools of thought. One of these schools follows the thinking of the white man. The other follows the thinking of the Negro. The U. N. I. A. follows the thinking of the Negro. It is a function of man to think independently. I would not give a snap of my finger for a Negro who cannot think from the standpoint of a Negro." —MARCUS GARVEY AT PITTB.

LARGER NEGRO EDUCATION IS NEED OF RACE
Racial equality begins with racial self-respect. Negroes can never hope to be, considered the equals of other races until they are so much in love with themselves that they show by their thoughts and actions that they believe they are as good as other people. Two points of view are impeding the growth of racial self-respect among Negroes. One must be done away with if the race is ever to take its place with the other people of the world.
The distinguishing characteristics of the Negro are too easily, submerged by environment. We too readily conclude that Negro achievement and well-doing must have the white man's stamp of approval before it should be accepted as good, better or best. In this way we emphasize racial dependence. Our persistence in imitating the white man impairs the initiative and creative instincts of the race. Until we look upon the world in its relations to the race and interpret: this meaning by purely Negro thought, our progress in mental emancipation will move slowly.
We have too many educated men and women teaching Negro youth from books produced by the authors of other races. Education is the hope of the world and its people. Education is a source of inspiration. The succeeding generations of Negro school pupils will receive their inspiration to careers in the schools and colleges of today. It is important, therefore, that Negroes turn their attention to producing textbooks to be used in the instruction of the youth of the race.
Each succeeding generation of Negroes will continue to see the world and themselves through the eyes of other people until schools and colleges include the text-books of Negro authors in their courses. It is not enough for any ambitious member of the race to contine himself to the preparation of a Negro history. He should address himself as a historian to the task of producing a history of interest to all the world because of its comprehensive character. We must produce a good crop of authors of text-books in the English branches as an incentive and inspiration to unborn generations of Negroes. This will constitute a good foundation for the larger education of the race throughout the world - Pittsburgh American.

WASHINGTON D. C. Sept. 27. President Coolidge is "seeking" the "Brother" and the "Sister," is this indicative of Durham good will in the face of the "Slump of Sleep?" Henry Lincoln Johnson, from Georgia, sir, is the latest individual of national prominence to be received at the White House. Johnson was preceded by William H. Lewis, of Massachusetts and Boston—an alumnus of Amherst, the alma mater of the President.
A group of Negro women and a delegation from a secret fraternity are among those who have been able to "ease by" the Virginia secretary and opponent of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and get the immediate and direct ear of President Coolidge. All visitors came away smiling and with hope in their hearts.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sept. 20. Mystery surrounds the shooting of Prince Addison, a Negro, who claims that a white man in a speeder automobile shot him last Wednesday night as he pussed. Addison says that he does not know the man. At the time of the shooting Addison was on his way home from work. The authorities are investigating the affair.

VILE ATROCITY OF HOODED MEN IN TULSA, OKLA.
Negro Politician Tells Military Court Hooded Gang Tried to Make Him Eat His Bleeding Ear
Governor Walton Appeals to Judgment of Civilized World on His Action in Tulsa
An interesting sidelight on the astounding events now being enacted in the State of Oklahoma is shown by the following instance of barbarism, perpetrated by white men on a Negro at Tulsa, in a dispatch to the East Tegnessee News of Sept. 27:
The first opportunity that J. H. Smitherman, well-known and highly-respected Negro, of Tulsa, has had to tell the story to any constituted authority of the atrocious acts of a masked crowd of men, said to be members of the Ku Klux Klan, perpetrated upon him, was when he was called before the military court, appointed by Governor J. C. Walton for the purpose of bringing to light the conduct of the Ku Klux Klan in the State of Oklahoma.
The court summoned Smitherman, who is a well known political leader of the State, to Oklahoma City and asked him for the facts concerning his having been kidnapped and greatly mistreated on the night of March 10, 1922. He told of having been summoned to his door on that night and when he opened the door twelve men, eight of whom wore white masks forced him into an automobile at the point of pistols and took him into the country, where he was stripped of his clothing, handcuffed and died to a tree, where upon his captives accused him of registering Negroes as Democrats and advising them to vote against the city administration.
"After accusing me of 'ugentleminally conduct toward a white woman,' said Smitherman, in testifying before the court, 'one of the men spit in my face, and two proceeded to beat me unmercifully. One would, whip my naked back until he was exhausted and then another would, whip me. Finally,' Smitherman testified, 'the man who spit, in my face stuck a gun to my head and said, 'I'm going to kill you,' but one of the unmasked men disentented, so they talked it over privately for a few minutes. 'There the same man who wanted to kill me walked up to me, pulled a knife from his pocket and cut off my right ear.
"He struck the bleeding car to my mouth and demanded that I eat it. I refused and he took the battl of the heavy whip which he held in his hand and best me in the face with it until he was exhausted, all the time trying to make me eat my car. They finally turned me loose and warned me to leave Tulsa and to leave Oklahoma or I would be killed by one of the twelve there."
Smitherman testified that he told his captors he had advised all the Negroes he could to register and vote the Democratic ticket, because he himself was a Democrat. "There was nothing else to

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Oct. 8. "You can't keep a good man down," nor a good race. That attaches the keynote that has been responsible for the success of the People's Ice and Fuel Company in this city. It is the outgrowth of white prejudice and unfair business methods on the part of whites.
This city has been peculiar in that for a number of years Negroes retailled practically all the ice made in this city. There is a long, dry spell here which makes the ice business peculiarly profitable. The whites were doing all the manufacturing. Eventually they became concerned over the Negro retail business. They drew the line. One Negro, who was operating ten wagons for his trade, found that he could not get any ice. Others met with the same difficulty. White retailers sprang up. The Negroes would drive their wagons up for a supply and would be kept waiting all day; while the whites, the new retailers, came and went, their wagons loaded to the bein
The Big Four
Garvey, Gandhi, Lenine and Woodrow Wilson, says Prof. Kelly Miller, are the big four of the human race. Garvey, Kitting black man from the back yard of the white man's civilization; Gandhi, revivifying the antonionous life of India; Wilson, positing League of Nations, to usher in federation of the world; Lenine and Trotsky, two in one; laying the axe at the foot of the tree of capitalism—all paying the price the seer must pay.
NEGRO HATRED
RUNNING WILD
Those who saw Washington and Jefferson play Lafayette at the Polo Grounds last year are likely to remember the game, an a perfect exposition of all methods of football attack and defense. Nor are they likely to forget the work of Charles West at fullback for W. and J., and how he led his team through a splendid rally in the last quarter. West seemed to inspire his flagging mates, passing and running with such skill as to change defeat into victory in the closing minutes of play. It was all the more-striking because West is a tall, powerful Negro.
Because of West's presence in the W. and J. line-up Saturday, at the eleventh hour Washington and Lee declined to play the scheduled game at Washington, Pa. Supposedly the men from Lexington had come to Pennsylvania knowing of West's prowess in the field. The coach from Virginia regretted calling, in his men, but was acting on instructions from Lexington. The Virginians did not refuse to play until it was certain West would not be withdrawn from the line-up. They made overtures to have him withdrawn.
It is unfair to say that Washington and Lee was inspired by $ \beta $ desire to dispose of the oneym's champion without striking a single blow. It is not unfair to say, however, that they were not good enough sportmen to risk defeat at the hands of one they regarded as a social inferior. And it is not unjust to say that as Virginiaans they maintained a shabby tradition, and as sportmen they deprived themselves of all claim to recognition among those who maintain the brighter traditions of sport. -Editorial, New York World.

de," he said he told the men. He told he denied the accusation concerning his conduct toward a white woman.
In making public the story of Smitherman as related before the investigating court, Governor Jack Walton stated: "This is only one of the hundreds of such crimes committed which the civil authorities of this State refused to prosecute.
"I ask the people of this civilized world, in the presence of such testimony, if I was not justified in proclaiming martial law in the city of Tulsa."

as Oust Negro Retailers—
ir Own Ice Plant
It took a Negro preacher to solve
the problem, the Rev. R. M. Caver,
pastor of Mount Zion Baptist, Church.
Rev. Caver told his people to make
their own ice. The idea sounded good.
Backing was received from D. H.
Rainea, an oil millionaire, Negro, with
holdings in Louisiana, and residence
in Hot Springs. Haines became presi-
dent of the company to manufacture
ice and Caver, secretary.
The result is their present modern plant, capable of turning out thirty tons of ice each day, located in the manufacturing district of the city, with their own spur to the railroad. They now have a demand in excess of their supply. All the stock of the People's Ice and Wool Company is paid in and carried dividends. The Negro company has found that it cannot only sell ice to Negroes, but the Negro retailers who had white trade previous to the Jim Crow tactics of the white retailers. Find that all their old customers among the whites stay with them. What everybody seems to want is good ice, promptly delivered.
White Organ Tries to Sow
Discord Among U. N. I.
A. Supporters by Wanton
Distortion of Facts
An attempt, characteristic of enemies of the Negro race, to malign the leaders of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and to create dissonance within the ranks, has just been made in Cincinnati, Ohio. A Cincinnati sheet, called the "Times-Star," has recently aimed a blow at the U. N. I. A. Division in that city, one of the strongholds of the organization, by a bare-faced misrepresentation of statements made by William Ware, president of the Cincinnati division, in a letter to Prosecutor C. S. Bell.
The following article, taken from the Cincinnati "Union" of October 6, tells the whole story:—
"The following appeared in a daily paper Saturday evening with big headlines:—
"Prosecutor C. S. Bell said Saturday that he would accept the invitation of William Ware, president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, to tour the 'black belt' in the West End., and see first-hand the dangers which Ware alleges menace the safety of the city. Ware declared in a letter to the prosecutor that the Negroes have been arming themselves for a riot with the whites, and that such a riot is inevitable unless the Negroes are disarmed. Ware said pawn shops should be eliminated in that section and poolrooms, which are breeding places for crime and incendiary ideas."-Timca-Star.
"The news was astounding. Many persons called us up in reference to the matter as they could not understand why President Ware would make such remarks concerning disarming Negroes. Knowing Mr. Ware well we had no hesitation in telling them that he never would have made such remarks. No Negro, unless he was an unprincipled tool, or damnable foot, would say that "a race not was inevitable, unless Negroes were disarmed." As a matter of fact, the better Negroes are armed, the less danger of a riot. The whites are wire people they never attack Negroes unless they have everything in their favor. In every big race riot, the first move was to have the police disarm the Negroes and then the slaughter proceeded merely onward. Mr. Ware has loudly sent us the following copy of his letter to The Times-Star:
October 1, 1923.
To the Editor of The "Timemachine
Times-Star" Times-Star Building,
City.
Dear Sir, In your final edition of
Saturday, Sept. 29, you carried an
item on page 13, under the caption,
To Investigate Allied Menace
in West End" that for sheer
insanity is hard to equal.
Beginning on eighth line of the article, you wrote this sentence: "WARE DECLARED IN A LETTER TO THE PROSECUTOR THAT THE NEGROES HAVE BEEN ARMING THEMSELVES FOR A RACE RIOT WITH THE WHITES, AND THAT SUCH A RIOT IS INEVITABLE UNLESS THE NEGROES ARE DISARMED." I am writing you with the express purpose of asking you where you obtained the authority to publish such a crazy statement, for at no time have I ever sent out letters that contained even remote suggestions of the thought: this abominable line expresses; that, "Negroes have been arming themselves for a race riot with the whites," etc. etc.
What Mr. Ware Said
Here are the exact words as contained in my letter to Mr. Bell: "That unlaws you (a reference to a letter sent to the Mayor on some previous occasion) who are in authority enforce the law and eliminate the conditions that now exist in the West End, there will be one of the bloodiest wars ever known in the city of Clinch.mat." Mr. Editor, can you find any reference to Negroes "arming themselves for a race root with the whites" in this statement?
As to the arming of the West End citizen, here is the only part of my letter that mentions arms in any sense: "That unless these poolrooms, from Mim street in the Southern, bridge and from Third street to Liberty street, are put out of existence, you will never be able to stop gun toting and crime in the city of Chattainville, because both white and black men frequent these places 265 days in the year."
Mr. Elliot, if you would only take time to think about this matter in the same way I and my black brother do you would easily understand why I take
The Ku Klux Klan with a feeling of confidence in their victory over Governor Walter of Oklahoma say now boastfully that they will unmask as soon as the Governor is impached. "We had intended doing so some time ago,"
says the Klan, "but did not because Governor Walton, who is an opportunist, wanted to grab the glory by forcing us and thus crowning his demagogic self with public approval." It is easy for the Klan to tell us what it intended to do now that they have been cornered by the Governor. It appears that they, thinking impeachment stares the Governor in the face, are hoping to ingrate themselves with the people by publicly stating what they intended doing. Does the Klan really think that it is hood-winking the public by this statement? Whether they realize it or not, the Governor has "grabbed the glory" of unmasking and putting the Klan on the run in Oklahoma. One who is unbiased can come to but one conclusion regarding the warfare of the past few weeks between Governor Walton and the Ku Klux Klan, and that is that the fight of Governor Walton has forced the legislature of the State to promise the people publicly that they will pass a law, forbidding the hood and gown and making the penalty for flogging more severe. If the Ku Klux Klan think they have won any victory in this fight, they are badly mistaken. No one believes that this signal victory over the Klan in Oklahoma would have been won by the people, had not Governor Walton waged such spectacular warfare as he did. Whatever good results come from this fight, Governor Walton gets the credit. It may cost him his seat in Oklahoma City, but this is the reward of all who render great service. If there is any glory in the Governor's fight, the Governor has grabbed it.
"Scandall Scandall Have you read it?" shouted a newsie, holding up to me an Amsterdam News, a New York NegFe weekly, which carried this headline, "Society Scandal Out." Thus he shouted to all who passed, knowing that it created a great demand for his papers.
Filth, dirt and scandal. How we do like it! We peruse the paper daily looking and hunting for every bit contained therein. Our daily and weekly papers team with it. In fact, they do not sell well unless the glaring headlines and noisy newsboys cry Murder! Rape! Suicide! Scandall Filth. News buzzards we are looking for filth and dead carcasses. When the character is morally healthy it attracts but little attention. Headlines do not proclaim the fact. The public is not concerned. It is only when our characters stink with scandal that the public desires every bit of information about us with joy and glee. Many of us decry the printing of so much muck. We damn the papers for filling their columns with filth. We lament the fact that our leading Negro weeklies have turned news scavengers. The papers are not wholly to blame. They operate for money and will only print news the public wants. They give us filth; dirt and scandal because we want it. We will pay for it. This news-paper men know.
The majority of us are news buzzards. Filth, rot and decay are what we thrive upon. Nothing arrests our attention unless it has begun to small yelp with scandal, gossip or some poor soul had run attack by stealing.
murdering or committing suicide. City editors know this. Reporters are always on the hunt for it and will continue to be so long as our mental appetite demands it. When the public demands an appetite for that which is sound and healthy in humanity; for its strong and noble points, for its sweetness, then will city editors and newspaper reporters cease to rake up all the trash in our lives. When we develop the appetite of the humming bird which flies on over the dead carcass and rotting fifth to the sweet nectar of the flowers. When we will be given only the nectar in the news, but as long as we remain news buzzards, attracted only by the stink of scandal and human weaknesses so long will we be fed that upon which buzzards feed.
The man who achieves in this life must be capable of being his own boss. He must be more exacting upon himself than anyone else. He must drive himself harder than any superintendent, manager or foreman. He who would
achieve, accomplish and take his place at the head of men and affairs must be one who gives himself orders to go on regardless of heat, cold, light or darkness. While others trip the fantastic toe, enjoy the plays and many frivolities of youth, the man who would master, drives himself on to libraries, might schools or his own fireside to search for deep truths and knowledge in one line or another. If you are your own boss, if you do not have to be watched, if you do not have to be told over and over again what to do, if you have the power to order yourself, you may be wise of success in any field. In other words, if you are self disciplined, you will some day demand a high premium in your field of endeavor and become a leader of men. Go into any field of labor and you will find that the fellow who is lagging back is the one who must be watched closely to see that he discharges properly his task while the advance fellow is the one who has learned to be his own boss.

offense at the "misstatement" in your Saturday paper. Imagine yourself a member of a race that has always, and even now, is the white man's football-a race that has been lifted almost by its own bootstraps in a brief half century from the depths of slavery to one of intellectual equality. In spite of the white man's "civilization," and you will see that I have just cause to feel hurt at such tactics on the part of the press. I could easily have ignored the article, as I ignore thousands of alarms and sardines during the course of every month of my existence, but the potential harm it carried was a bit too much—even for a mere Negro! I verily believe that if the present friction between the races ever causes a serious conflagration, it will be almost entirely the result of such baiting methods as the single sentence in your Saturday's article expresses. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is an organization that stands for all the beautiful things in the white man's civilization and none of the brutal, bestial, debasing things that have made a shambles of God's green earth in the past ten years. You, as an editor of a large newspaper, should help instead of hinder us in our great work.
But it appears that the more we appeal to the white people the less heed they pay to our earnest efforts to improve our social and economic situation. Be it so. The fruits of our victory will be the sweeter for having been obtained through sacrifice and pain. Respectfully yours.

LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK. Sunday Night, October 7 — Liberty Hall thronged with a huge audience tonight among which were many strangers who came to learn and know more about the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and its principles which have touched the hearts of millions of Negroes in all parts of the world, and the amazing spread of which has mystified the white nations of the world, especially in Europe. Hon. William Sherriil, First Assistant President-General, who is appointed as chairman, in opening the meeting and extending a welcome to the audience made a comprehensive outline of the aims and objects of the association, and of the work it had accomplished and expected to accomplish. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, he said, is a world-wide organization made up wholly and solely of Negroes, an organization whose membership totals about six millions, scattered in all parts of the world; an organization which has more than 200 branches in all parts of the world; an organization whose aim and object is to bring about a unification of Negroes everywhere, regardless of place of birth, and, finally, to establish for Negroes a national home on the continent of Africa. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, he continued, is about the years old in America. It started in Harlem with about thirteen members, and in about five years it grew to a membership of more than twenty. It is an organization that is constantly changing the power of Negroes everywhere. The organization is led by the Hon. Morales Garvey, the moving spirit who by his generosity has brought his people together. He is not only bringing about the modernization of Negroes everywhere, but also bringing on a new splendid and new animation. Such meetings are thus called. She is now being held in all parts of the world tonight. Negroes everywhere are tonight in their various library Holls. Entering to
STOMACH TROUBLES ARE DUE TO ACIDITY
Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy Relief For Acid Indigestion
So called, stomach trouble, is an indigestion gas, sourness, stomach ache and inability to retain food, in probably rare cases out of ten, simple evidence that excessive secretion of acid causes the formation of gas, gass and acid indigestion.
Gas distends the stomach and causes that tull, oppressive, burning feeling of the stomach, the acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely in the excess development or secretion of acid.
To stop or prevent this souring of the food contents of the stomach and to neutralize the acid, and make it bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of fusurated Magnesium, a good and effective beverage, of a glass of hot or cold water after eating or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens the stomach and neutralizes the few moments and is a perfectly harmless and inexpensive remedy to use.
An anticidil, such as Bisurated Magnesia, which can be obtained from any mineral formable other than or of a formable enables the stimulus to work properly without the aid of artificial digestants. Magnesia comes in several forms, so be certain to ask for Bisurated or Bisurated Magnesia, which is especially prepared for the above purpose.
the preachings and teachings of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.
· The association at this particular time, Mr. Sherrill explained, was waging an intensive campaign. It was undergoing incomplete reorganization, and all of the executive officers are on the field, including the Hon. Marcus Garvey, who is supposed to be on his vacation, but who is resting a little bit and working at the same time, for he was speaking tonight at that very moment in Kansas City on his way to the coast.
After his preliminary remarks the chairman introduced Mr. Tom Davis, a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the West Coast of Africa, who arrived in this country about ten days ago. Mr. Davis, because of his limited knowledge of English, could say only a few words, which he intended to express his pleasure at being present in Liberty Hall. The next speaker was Mr. Ebenezer Thomas of the Brooklyn division, who gave cent to the burning passion which he possessed for the U. N. L. A. Following him, Hon. James O'Menly, High Commissioner, spoke in his usual intellectual and cultured strain. The last speaker was Hon. William Sherrill, who delivered a masterly address on the subject, "Our Great Opportunity."
The text of the addresses are given below:
SIR JAMES O'MEALLY'S SPEECH
Sir James O'Meally at the outset dwell on the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which, he said, should be the guide of any lover of Negro freedom. He pointed out that the white man had arrived at his present position, had reached his present stage of civilization after crossing rivers of blood and it was no wonder that fearing retribution, he was trying to get Negroes to forgive and forget.
"The white man," the speaker continued, "tells us to forget is noble, to forgive is cruel. My friends, it is true that if a person on forgive, and his forgiveness is corrupted on the right occasion, so that matter amends thereby, he shall find his reward in Heaven. I am not advocating unconditional forgiveness. Forgiveness does not mean that when you forgive a person you are to forgive unconditionally, that you are to practice the non-resistance of evil on every occasion. Nor does it mean that the punishment is to be re
mitted under any circumstances. We must excuse our judgment and see whether in occasion calls for punishment or forgiveness. If the offender would unearn certain circumstances be payed for forgiveness, and amend his ways, then we can forgive. But, we have practiced this forgiveness so often that the white man has interpreted it as weakness. We are, therefore, going to stop forgiving and exact payment. And that is why we are in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We have a debt to collect. (Applause.)
The Despicable Sort of Forgiveness
"Excess in mildness, just as excess in vengeance, leads to dangerous consequences. The person or race which forbears to revenge an attack upon its honor and upon its very life itself is certainly practicing forgiveness, but that forgiveness is a despicable sort of forgiveness. It is the sort of forgiveness that offends against self-respect. And so it is that we want to get the right idea of forgiveness. The word 'forgive' means to forego, to give over, to forget. When you forgive, you must forget. And, what Negro in there, who can forget, unless he is a crawling worm, the injuries done to this race
and the wrings from which we are
suffering?
"Today while I was in Philadelphia I heard of a case that the Philadelphia Division is taking up, that made my blood boil. A Negro, one of those leaving the South, leaving that hell and coming North, seeking better conditions, was arrested only last week because his former master lapsed a warrant for him on the ground that he had stolen $60. But what are the facts? The facts are these: The man worked for four years for that white man tilling the soil. His wife and four children were actually slaves on the land. That man cannot read. As is the custom down there, you have to buy your goods from the white man, and he kept the accounts. The first year the man was fifty dollars short. The second year he was one hundred dollars short, and so on. And the man saw that to remain under that base system of slavery, there would be no hope for him or for his wife and children. He quit the South and came up North, and now the State of Carolina is trying to get out extradition papers for him. But, glory to God, this is the day when we have Negroes organized (applause)—when we are looking out to protect Negroes, and believe me, the people in Philadelphia are determined to stand by that Negro (applause). The Negro of today is desperate. And when we make the prosecution of Negroes so expensive in blood and money for our persecutors, they will stop hounding us" (Applause.)
The speaker concluded with an appeal to his audience to continue agitating for, and showing their unfaltering determination to get the things which are rightfully theirs.
HON. WILLIAM SHERRILL SPEAKS
Hon. William L. Sheerill spoke as follows: My subject tonight is "Our Great Opportunity." In the struggle for nationhood there are many discouragements and obstacles. There are many who start in the great process who later become tired to the extent that they fall out or drop by the wayside. This fact makes it necessary at all times to be continually giving people a little hope and little encouragement; continually bolstering them up in order that they may not wane in their efforts toward the goal they started out to attain.
Determination to Stand by Principles
In the last few months the Universal Negro Improvement Association has demonstrated its indispensable determination to stand by the principles of the association and not to allow anything to turn it to the right or to the left. But the danger is that in our great victory—in our standing so gallantly and so nobly by the organization during the time of this great stress we may become overconfident in our strength and ability of organization to the point of stopping or standing still instead of continuing to press on to the mark of the high calling of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.
Opportunities come as an old sage has said, but once in the life of man. As in the life of an individual so in the life of a race or nation, a great opportunity generally presents itself once that particular opportunity does not come again for dear the hope.
unity come in that same way of fashion. It means that the race of nations or individuals who are to make a success must be able to know an opportunity when they meet it and be prepared to take advantage of that opportunity. America is a nation which has demonstrated her ability to see and take advantage of opportunities. America could never have been the great nation she is today had she not been able to see the opportunity presented to her when the British Empire was engaged in foreign wars when Great Britain had in hand full trying to protect its own shores when the British Empire was being harassed by the great Napoleon. If the American people, or rather the colonists, had not been able to have seen that that was their opportunity to strike a blow at the great British Empire, America today perhaps would be one of Great Britain's dominions, but America saw her opportunity at that time to strike the blow which gained her freedom. Perhaps the Negro would not have been free unto this had not Abraham Lincoln—had not the Abolitionists—had not those who were in sympathy with the slave seen in the great war an opportunity to break the shackles that bound four million slaves.
The Negro's Opportunity
Now there is a great opportunity to present itself to the race in the near future. When we look at the world today we see a world torn with strife and hates of all kinds. Europe today is all but a seething, burning volcano about to erupt at any moment. The governments in Europe are working nothing like in harmony; there are wars and suspensions and fears on all sides. It simply means that the least alteration—that the coming together of two governments will set afire the whole of Europe. Today France is the undisputed warlord of Europe; France today is building stronger fortifications; she is bringing on the scene newer inventions; she is placing in her army thousands more young men; she is training in her African colonial-pos-sensible millions of Negroes an order that France may realize the dream of French world domination. Today the nations of Europe are standing in a state of fear watching France; Great Britain, her temporary ally, stands today watching France as she arms, as she builds mighty airplanes; watching her as she continues to encroach upon the territory of Germany; watching her as she takes unto herself the coal regions of Germany, making France not only the undisputed war
lord,耳 making France, the undeveloped commercial, giant, of the continent. England, herself dreaming of British world dominion, has watched France not with any good intent, but watching for the least provocation that she might be able upon some pretext to stop France in her mighty advance.
What does that mean to the Negro to see Europe so disorganised? What does it mean to the Negro to see France and England at longer heads; to see Russia siding with Germany; to see each little government in Europe standing to itself? It simply means that there is coming an inevitable war in Europe which will present to 400,000,000 Negroes an opportunity to present and press their claim on Africa. This will be a greater war than that fought in 1914—a war in Europe which will make the war of 1914 look like child's play. When this great war is fought in Europe it will be on a different scale than wars have been fought in the past. War at this particular time in Europe will mean the destruction of European civilization. There was a time when wars were fought between men on the fields of battle, but wars are not fought that way now. When two countries go to war now it means that children, sweetcarts, mothers and wives will be annihilated. It—means that all the science in the grip of these mighty nations will be put in use, and with these scientific inventions, such as poisonous gases, liquid fire, poisonous and mustard gas, whole towns and whole countries will be annihilated. War waged on the new scientific, scale means suicide for Europe if started.
I was reading today in the Hearst's paper that an American scientist has discovered the means of controlling lightning itself. He looks forward to the time when the American Government will be able to so control the forces of nature that they can ultimately hurt a boat of lightning all the way across the great Atlantic. That may seem impossible at this time, but who can tell to what point science is going to develop? Scientific research is not only going on here. Germany today is endeavoring to bring about as many new scientific inventions as they possibly can. America today is busy inventing as many new devices to kill human life as she possibly can. Great Britain and France and the governments of the world are busy inventing bigger guns, (inventing gas more poisonous—inventing everything to destroy man, because at this time one government has no faith in another. Every government is afraid of the encroachment of another, and every government tools that they must build to protect themselves.
War Is Inevitable
As long as nations abide themselves in building and inventing weapons of warfare, war is inevitable. France's policy in Germany is making a configuration in Europe metastable. Germany is not going to be always crushed. Germany is not going to always unite the bodies of French and German. The German people will one day coin for a greater German couple than they were when they went down Russia that she should pose an sympathy with Germany. Europe speaks, indeed, that since Germany is sympathically with Germany and assumes that she is willing in any way to aid Germany. That means that Russia sympathies with Germany is going to enable Germany, whether it takes a generous offer, imagining lock on feet, and mock my good Germany will not use the application of France. Germany will come forward with revenge and will bring about that inevitable conflict in Europe, when it comes, together with the greater scientific institutions, it will be the downfall of European civilization.
The Negro Comes in Here.
The Negro comes in here. At a time the Negro will be presented with the greatest opportunity for complete freedom and redemption. With England and France and the whole of Europe which controls Africa today jumping at each other's throats, estimating their man power, exhausting their wealth, in the death struggle for the balance of power on the European continent, millions of Negroes in Africa, just as George Washington and the Colonies did in America, will take advantage of the opportunity to strike their mighty blow on the soil of Africa for African freedom and redemption.
It is the that the Universal Negro Improvement Association sees. We do not know whether it will be five years.

on such police off, but seeing that the favorable conflict is ongoing, and knowing that France, together with other European nations, are expecting the black man to play his part in this conflict for the preservation of their governments, the Universal Negro Improvement Association is working asidiously and ardently to awaken Negroes to the need and necessity of, them not fighting for somebody else's battle, but fighting their own battles when the time to fight comes. France knows this, and France is giving Negroes every opportunity under the French Government strictly. You see much in the papers about French justice—where the French are telling the American people where they get off. You hear much talk about how they must treat Negroes in France, but you must remember that Negroes are treated that way in France proper, but in the colonies Negroes suffer the same as Negroes in the British West Indies: in the same way as Negroes do in the British colonial possessions in Africa. France knows that her birth rate is below high level, and France expects millions of blacks in Africa of fight her battles of the future. When the great conflict comes, France expects to throw millions of blacks into the trenches; France expects to throw millions of blacks as gun fodder to protect the great French Republic; but Marcus Garvey came on the scene just about five years too early and he is telling Negroes that if there is any fighting to be done in the future that black men must fight for black men only. (Applause.)
Our Job
"Therefore it is the job of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this time to awaken the Negro in Africa. This is our big job. Somebody remarked tonight that we get discouraged when we don't see our banks, our stores, our business enterprises. I want you to remember that the real job of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is to help the native in Africa to a common enemy of the mighty powers that he occupant in him and give him to understand that who he goes to his lands are exploiting and robbing him and that American Negroes, and West Indian Negroes are with him and when the time comes to strike we will be with him with money, we will be with him with sacrifice and we will be with him with service. (Apulance.)"
Propaganda
"That must be done through propaganda. The U. N. L. A. at this time is in its stage of propaganda. We are doing all our tall talk on the side of the ocean. We are talking through the Negro World. We are sending representatives to the League of Nations. We are sending agents, aptly to the continent of Airlines. For what? We know the American Negro will not be able to miss three of Nebraska, America, and several them on the right."

are not going to be able to lead all the Negroes in the West Indies and South and Central America and send them to fight the great battle. But what is the ambition of the American Negro and the West Indian Negro? To awaken and unite the Negro to a complete consciousness of himself.
Economic Opportunity
The Negro in America has the greatest opportunity to make money of Negroes anywhere. While he may not have as great political opportunity, he has a great economic opportunity. It takes money to spread propaganda. We all know the great benefits of propaganda. We all know to what great advantage Germany used propaganda in the past war. We all know to what great advantage America and the Allied used propaganda in the last war. We expect the American Negro and the West Indian Negro, having a more economic advantage, then the African Negro to advance a program of propaganda for African redemption. We want to awaken the African to the same consciousness that the Negro here in Liberty Hall has been awakened to. You talk about reeducating Africa about the possibility or the impossibility of reeducating Africa. If we can reeducate in waging a propaganda through the Negro World and our agents in Africa, if we can awaken the native African to a full consciousness of who he is and what he is capable of doing as we have awakened Negroes in Harlem when the Negroes of Africa become fully awakened and you can convince are Africa will be reeducated, for the Negroes there will grow up and regain their life and prosperity.

but had a thin condition in the government of the people of Cairo, Porto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and several Philippines.
The unfortunate condition of the people of the Virgin Islands should appeal to the Federal Administration for relief in a more positive and helpful way than has been true so far. The United States and Great Britain represent in a more direct and positive way the principles of the Christian religion than other governments, and they have been the most favored nations on that account, but they have not come up to requirements of the spiritual law of their profession of faith in dealing with those over whom they are in authority and "the stranger within the gate," and they are being constantly called to account for their shortcomings in troubles of their own for which they cannot find any satisfactory reason. They cannot wrong the off-color peoples they rule as subjects, or who are a part of their citizenship, as in the United States, without having to pay a very dear price for doing so. We know that much because it is written in the book, is recorded in our national history, and is blazoned for us in the signs of the times, which they who run should be able to read.
THOSE WHO SOW TO THE WIND
THERE are some truths that stand the test of the ages. They never grow old. It is one of the contradictions of human mentality, however, that accepted truths are disregarded with a blind persistence that challenges the admiration of those who are able to read and understand the writing on the wall as it is written out in the signs of the times. Individuals learn nothing, nations learn nothing, from accepted truths and from the experiences built upon them. They live over again and again the mistakes that work the destruction of the individual as well as of the nation, largely because selfishness and greed occupy such a commanding place in human thought.
"Those who sow to the wind reap the whirlwind," is one of the truths that most people and nations accept, but promptly forget. When they imagine they need something which belongs to some one else who does not wish to part with it, and can only be induced to do so by fraud or force.
The condition of affairs in the State of Oklahoma which threatened civil war for a time, provoked by the efforts of Governor Walton to curb the lawless acts of members of the Ku Klux Klan against white persons, was nothing more than was to have been expected. Why? Because the Ku Klux Klan did business for fifty years in the Southern States without substantial interference by the State or Federal authorities, the whole nation standing by consenting. Why? Because Negroes only were disfranchised, intimidated, jim-crowed, lynched and burned. Why? That the white citizens might control political power and rob the Negro of his earnings, his services being largely in the nature of the slave for the planters and storekeepers for whom he worked and who must be protected in their robbery by controlling the agencies of legislation and law enforcement.
Naturally the time came when those who controlled affairs in the South and found it profitable to tyrannize over, humiliate and rob the Negro, reached the conclusion that it would be good and profitable to treat the poor and unfortunate members of their own race in the same way. Selfishness and greed grow fat on their feed. Then, the new policy was adopted by proscribing not only the Negro but the Jew and the Catholic and the foreign born. That is the policy developed during the past few years. The Klan has grown so fast in the Northern and Western States that it has been decided to transfer the national headquarters from Atlanta, in Georgia, to Indianapolis, in Indiana, in which State it is now said to be strongest, and in which it is said to control the Republican party, which is responsible for allowing the Klan to exist and grow to national consequence. If it should destroy the Republican party in the North and West by boring from the inside, it would look like the retributive vengeance of the Almighty God of the Republic. Stranger things have happened in the history of mankind.
We believe that those who wrong the Negro people because they are poor and unorganized, in the United States, in the West Indies, and in Africa, have to pay for it. They have to pay for it in blood and tears, and they are not always allowed to know what they have been guilty of that they should be punished so severely in their pride, in their wealth, and in their blood and tears.
The dangerous condition brought about in the State of Oklahoma by the lawless acts of the Ku Klux Klan is liable to break out in any of the States of the North and West at any time. Why? Because it was not crushed in the reconstruction days and was given a new lease of life by the late President Harding and the Republican majority in the Congress.

G FOUR OF THE HUMAN
SEVEN years ago Leo M. Frank was accused of the murder of a factory girl fourteen years of age, at Atlanta, and the nation was stirred to fever heat by the sensational trial and conviction of the factory manager and his lynching in the State prison. The Jews of the country exhausted all of the resources of the law to save Frank from being railroaded by legal prices and lynched by the infuriated mob sentiment of the State.
The authorities of Georgia are now striving to locate a Negro who is said to have confessed in prison, seven years ago, that Sam Conley, the chief witness against Frank, was the murderer. The main point is that the friends of Frank are determined to clear his memory, and are being assisted by the lawful authorities in the effort. If responsibility for the crime can be shifted from the Jew and hitched upon the Negro, Sam Conley or some other, why not do it? The white people of Georgia are not likely to lose much sleep over the matter, as they are against the Jew as well as the Negro, and think it good and proper to persecute and lynch either or both of them upon any sort of pretext. The Jews want Frank's memory cleared of the awful crime for which he was lynched, and they are sure to follow the trail as long as there is any of it to follow. Suppose Negroes were equally concerned and zealous to protect the memory of those of their number who are judicially murdered or lynched, would it not help greatly to relieve the situation and better the standing of the race? Of course.
There have been hundreds of black Franks. The white Frank found company all along that murderous highway. In this instance a white man is alleged to have suffered for the crime of a black man. That is bad. But scores of black men have suffered in like manner for the crimes of white men. Innocent, though they were, it mattered not. They were lynched, burned and slaughtered.

THOSE WHO BUILD NOTHING
ing themselves, find their chief occupation and pleasure in criticising and trying to prevent others from constructing something. Perhaps the world has work for those who tear down as well as for those who build up, but it is not always possible to understand how it can be so.
Our esteemed contemporary, the Cotton Farmer, of Scott, Miss., sees the matter as we do. In a recent issue; it has the following to say:
"We know one thing, and that is, the same element pursuing Garvey to his persecution and desired death is the same element that pursued Booker Washington to the brink of his grave, and even now throws black ink on his monument. Booker created payrolls, and was a constructive race builder, and the element opposing him, so far as this paper knows, has never done a thing but stand afar off and curse about economical conditions."
Those who try to do something tangible to benefit mankind, or their own group, have always had to endure detraction and persecution. But they have never hesitated in their work, even if it lead to imprisonment, or the scaffold, or the lynchtree. Dr. Washington recognized the Biblical truth that "a man's enemies are those of his own household," but he went on to the end doing things and encouraging others to do them. Marcus Garvey has the like feeling and the like determination. He sees clearly what he wants to do and goes about doing it, which is the only safe way to get anything done as it should be, undismailed by the obstacles that are thrown in his way. To wake up the African people of the world, to redeem Africa from the blight of White Overlordship—is not that grandlid work? Is there a nobler work? We think not.
VIRGIN ISLANDERS SHOULD HAVE RELIEF
We call attention to the article in this issue of The Negro World, headed, "Exodus From the Virgin Islands," because of the desperate condition of life and living which purchase of the islands from Denmark by the United States has brought upon the natives, and because Mr. Casper Holstein, the author of the article, has presented the case with such force and clearness. The islanders have good reasons to regret the change of citizenship from Denmark to the United States. They have had nothing but misfortune and unhappiness under the Star and Stripes. Under the Danish rule they enjoyed a very much larger measure of citizenship and economic prosperity than they enjoy under the sort of naval administration the United States has forced upon them.
The enforcement of prohibition in the Islands has destroyed one of the chief industries the people depended upon, and the destruction of the shipping by the port regulations deprived another portion of the people of sustaining work. The 25,000 inhabitants of the islands would get away from the conditions American control has brought upon them, but the restrictions are such that only a few of them can do so. Conditions such as the American Government has forced upon the people of the Virgin Islands should not be possible anywhere under the American flag, and we believe that proper presentation of the facts, and constant agitation, will lead the administration to recommend to the Congress some sort of representative government. Naval or military administration is never satisfactory in these of war, and nobody expects it to be so in times of peace.
There is plenty of evidence that English speaking countries, in all forms as well as in the colonial policies, do not make good and administrative administrators of off-color people, simply because the language that governs both British and American policy is that such persons inflictors and should be allowed the least possible participation in the activities of their own affairs. This policy, this attitude, and the constant among the subject people and keeps them in a state of unease and unhappiness. Great Britain has found the necessity of her administration of the affairs of the West Indian colonies of Africa and India, while the United States

tered with the shocks of doom. The audacity of the innovator, awakens their timidity into opposition. When Jesus said 'tear down this temple and I will build it up again, in three days, the audacity of it so started the conformative Jews that they made it the chief charge in the bill of indictment which led to his conviction and death. Carvary says—'I will lift the continent of Africa to the level of European civilization and culture through the scattered fragments of that blood who for the past three hundred years have been playing in the back yard of the
H. G. Wolls, one of the greatest of modern writers, and one of the world's most advanced thinkers, has written an article for the New York World from which we make the extracts that follow, and which are of vital interest and interest to the readers of The Negro World. Mr. Wolls says, among other things:
Continental Europe is being dissolated and destroyed by intellectual incapacity, by the failure to recognize the obsolescence of its political ideas and traditions. But Europe is not the world, nor will its decline fall be the end of the human story.
In the United States of America, in this so-called British Empire, and now in the United States of Russia, we must recognize a breaking away from tradition complete as when the Roman Empire broke away, from the forms and traditions of any previous political synthesis. These new systems arise not to inherit, but to supersede.
It is this conception of the history of the world during the last four centuries as being essentially in its broadest aspects a belated, forced and largely unconscious process of political adaptation to changing conditions; of vast subconscious and unwilling trials and experiments in new and greater political associations to replace that formerly dominant imperial ideas that I wish to put before my readers.
"The United States of America, the Spanish, Dutch and British colonial empires of the eighteenth century, the Russian Empire and the second British Empire of the nineteenth century, the British Empire of this present discussion, must all from the angle of this conception be seen as things experimental and transient, destined to the most extensive coalescence, readjustments and modifications in a few score years.
"Disentangle from India, draw nearer to America, come out of and keep out of ententes and alliances upon the continent of Europe"; these are the broad lines upon which I conceive the British system may best serve itself and mankind.
So far I have considered the British Empire only from the points of view of the English-Speaking dominions and of India. I will leave Egypt and Palestine, as they ought to be left, outside the discussion. They are, I take it, relaxing protectorates. Nor will I say more than word or so about purely strategic possessions, Malta, Gibraltar and so forth; they are part of our armament and their destiny is dependent upon the possibility of a world association sufficiently convincing to make disarmament possible.
But there still remain great areas that are neither populated by kindred communities nor subject civilizations, barbaric regions that have been taken over in order to exploit their natural resources and prevent their being monopolized and closed against us by some hostile power.
The Americans decided a century and a half ago that one necessary condition of existence for a federal union of sovereign States was universal free trade. All interference with the free movement of another community's trade, all tariff barriers and the like, are a mild form of war.
It must be plain to every one that the present division of Africa is extremely unstable and that if the system of competitive powers in Europe is to go on, it is only a question of how long it will take France to feel secure enough against Germany to get about fighting for the whole of new-material Africa. The organized peace of the world, the coming world civilization, demands not only a cessation of armaments, but a cessation of commercial discrimination and such-like material injuries.
In any world federation that may arise in the course of the next century or so, the English speaking communities which already number over 200,000,000 people, must necessarily play a leading part. How far it will be the leading part depends very much upon the educational and general creative energy of these communities during the years, immediately before us and upon their power of casting aside crippling prejudices and outworn ideas. It needs no impossible effort to make the English-language even now the lingua franca of India, and China, and the creative imagination embodied in English literature a fertilizing power throughout the earth.
If as a consistent republican I find a little joy in being a subject of a king-emperor, and if I find much of our British imperialism repulsively base, narrow, short-sighted and sulcidal, that is rather, because I overestimate that underestimate the share that our English language and civilization and peoples may play in the future of mankind.
white man's civilization. 'Gandhi declares,' it will throw off the yoke of alien overlordship and revivify the autothonous life of India by repudiating modern science, and by adopting the method of Jesus whose name the western world worships but whose gospel it ignores. 'Woodrow Wilson posits the League of Nations to usher in the parliament of man, the federation of the world. Lennine and Trotzky, two in one, startle the world with a scheme of salvation that lays the ax at the food of the trees of capitalism. Garvey and Gandhi are in jail. Woodrow Wilson is a physical wreck. Lennine and Trotzky are anathema marathas on the topside of the wise man of the world. Such, alas, is the price for which the seer must pay for his adadacty whether his vision be true or false.
THE PASSING SHOW
To the Editor of The Negro World:
Sir—"Where was the New York police force twenty years ago?" "In Ireland."
That was a popular foot in New York about twenty-five years ago, but it carried no direct reflection on Ireland and the Irish. On the contrary, it was a reflection on Ireland's rules (the English), who had so fearfully mismanaged that beautiful island that all the Irish who amounted to anything were leaving it in ever increasing numbers. Ireland was the only country in Europe, which at the end of the nineteenth century had a smaller population than it had at the beginning.
The Negro population of the Virgin Islands are hardly likely to become New York politemen. Nobody knows just what they will take to, nor do they know what opportunities will be open to them in the United States (the lack of promise); but it is quite clear that they are leaving the islands in great numbers (all who can get permission to leave), and are coming to the United States, particularly to New York city. A month ago one of the ordinary steamships flying between America and the West Indies brought a hundred and seventy-five Negroes from the various British islands. They were leaving their homes for the same reasons that had driven Irishmen out of Ireland. There was also on this steamer a number of Negroes who came from a single one of the Virgin Islands of the United States for similar reasons. And the number of people from the one Virgin Island was exactly the same as the number which came from all the British islands in the West Indies.
In the face of such facts the American occupation of the Virgin Islands must have something wrong with it. When a subject people begin to face their home as they would face the plague there must be a tremendous amount of distress and misery from which they would escape. These Virgin Islanders are a home-loving people. They are devotedly attached to their native soil, yet today their love of the soil in overborne by the miseries which they are called upon to endure on that soil. This simple but terrible fact has greater value and significance than all the official reports, excuses and explanations which the government fill the islands can ever assemble or put out.
Whether we consider the case of the Irish, that of the other white foreigners who flock here, or the Nero migrants from the South, or the Virgin Islanders, the fact is unlinkable that such general migration is an absolute proof of misery—and distress. And for such misery and distress in the case of the Virgin Islands the American government is indictable before the bar
BY JOHN EDWARD BRUCE
American justice is fast becoming a travesty—a by-word and a hissing among those who believe that justice is or should be impartial. The Ward case is a horrible example of how justice can be diverted from its course when the lives and liberty of rich and influential defendants are at stake, against a poor white or a poor black complainant. Had Clarence Peters been a Negro the Ward case would never have been reopened. The State of New York has spent thousands of dollars of the people's money to convict W. S. Ward of murder and the jury, true to the follow feeling of the home guard, has acquitted him. And the Daily News weeps salt tears for having lost its case, which served as a great advertising stunt and helped the counting room.
This wealthy resident of Westchester county, whose friends never intended that he should be convicted, was, as was expected, acquitted. When the dollar gets busy in such cases it runs a swift and winning race. American justice is a joke, a bigger one than the Eighteenth Amendment. Its rigor is only meant to be applied to helpless, poor white men and Negroes who run afoul of it, and are too timid to combat it, or too poor.
It is reported that the Wards settled a substantial sum on the parents of young Peters for the loss of their wayward son. The incident is closed. Ward is free. A jury has declared, him innocent, although he murdered a fellowman. O justice, what crimes are committed in thy name!
Garvey is growing more and more famous every day. Dean Kelly Miller ranks him with Jesus, Tolotoy, Gandhil Lonina, Trotsky-all splendid company. Josephus somewhere alludes to the former of these "cranks" as "a man calling himself Jesus." he is now universally acknowledged and accepted as the greatest and wisest man that ever existed, despite the fact that in Josephus' day he was regarded with snapleton, mocked, acourged, despised and even spat upon by the worldly wise men of his day, who considered him to be a crank, a mover of addition, a friend of publicite and slaves, a mok of no account generally, because he did not conform to accepted ideas, didn't about with the Sanhedrin, with whom "wisdom" began, but did not always end," did mismee when it took snuff. Time is the arbitrer who decides "who is who" in more holiness and so heaviness, and so shall see "who is who" when we look at them at the final glance. Marcus Garvey is a Hundred
of enlightened public opinion. Such
cynical and heartless indifference, as
is expressed by the enforcement of pro-
hibition, which destroyed the main
economic support of the islands, $35,000
inhabitants—and the present part regula-
tions, which effectively drive away
all the ships whose loading and unload-
ing furnished regular work to thousands
of the black working people,
would never have been permitted to go
unchallenged if these people were white.
It almost seems as if the policy is to depopulate the Virgin Islands. For if the present conditions and the present exodus should continue for two more years it is hard to see what the Naval Administration will have to govern except goals, sheep and cattle. Still, it may be just possible that the intent is to goad these people to the point of exasperation or riots, so that they may have a handy excuse for shooting them down and thus completing the process of colonisation as that process is understood under the present form of government.
Nor is this theory as far-fetched as it may seem at first glance. Just consider that when any of these poor people want to leave they are forced to wait for from three to six months, and in many instances one year. And even then (as recent arrivals stated), unless they pay from five to fifteen dollars more, than the regular rate they may not leave at all. After economic conditions make it next to impossible for them to exist on the islands the powers that be make it next to impossible for them to leave. In the light of that fact the hundred and seventy-five passengers mentioned above have a more than tragic significance.
Nearly four years of rainlessness, the consequent lack of water, even for protection against fire; such economic depression that the most that can be had is 'two days' work a week at 40 cents per day, while meat and sugar, flour and other necessities cost as much as they do in New York, and sometimes more; the restriction of the ballot to the natives, only a few of whom can vote; and on top of all this the democratic form of government in an American dependency which was acquired through treaty between two friendly nations—what a sample is this of American rule in the Caribbean. Surely here is a call to every ounce of patriotism which the Virgin Islanders can muster. For never was there a greater need for earnest effort and helpful co-operation on the part of a small people. With the continuance of the present unfair conditions the Virgin Islands will only need a watchman. Very truly yours.

The Negro in America thinks white.
Marcus Garvey thinks black. The destiny of the Negro who thinks white is not co-ordinate with that of the white man. The white man does not intend it so to be, and Marcus Garvey fully realizes it, and so he thinks black with all the intensity of his nature and power of his intellect, and he is inducing thousands of the face who are able to see with tolerably clear vision that thinking white by Negroes is no part of the business of Negroes in a day like this, when the white race, the wide world over is leagued against the darker races for supremacy. In the irresponsible conflict which is inevitable, unavoidable and — THINKING WHITE.
Hon. George W. Harris. It appears from the accounts given of the results of the late primaries, ceased to be the regular Republican candidate for alderman, and will cease to be, after the votes are counted in November, even if he runs as an independent. The order has gone forth to trim Mr. Harris, spank him in the pants till he pants, whether he runs as a regular or on his own hook. Since he has been repudiated by the organization, he will probably take another route to the aldermanic chamber and beat that man Smith, who recently grabbed from him the honour and the salary and what was left of the illumlight. But Uncle Marcus, who is a good waiter, has deserved that Georgia must not shine again, politically, in this balltwick, and he won't. For he went out of his way to put a crimp in the U. N. I. A., and the U. N. I. A. is under contract to put several deep- tucks in his political robe and it will do it, as the Lord Ivveth. Don't tread on the U. N. I. A. if you would survive and flourish.

Individuals Must Look Inside for Salvation

A contributor writes congratulating The Negro World on the artifice which appear in every issue from the pen of "Le Van." As he read "Le Van's" "Dogmas and Creeda," which appeared in last week's issue, he says he was reminded of some striking remarks made by Prof. Benjamin A. Osborne in his lecture on Sunday, September 30, at the Cosmopolitan A. M. E. Zion Church, 595 Classen avenue, Brooklyn, where he spoke to an interested audience on "The Chemistry of the Human Body."
It is interesting to note that Prof. Osborne is a staunch member of the Brooklyn Division of the U. N. I. A. and is just as happy in his racial addresses as in his scientific lectures. He is delivering a series of lectures at the above-named church, every Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock until the last Sunday in October. Admission free.
After explaining the various chem-
icals of the body, Prof. Osborne said:
"The old-established statement that
the individuals that make up the race
are imperfect is no more true than that
a pile of lumber is imperfect that is to
be afterward reformed or built into a
house; for as it is the carpenter's busi-
ness to take the lumber which is per-
fect in material and build the house, so
it is the legitimate work of spiritual
man to take the perfect material every-
where present and build, by the perfect
law of chemistry and mathematics, the
perfected harmonious human being,
and, with this material, employ the
same law to build up society collectively."
He then explained the wonderful opera-
tion of the heart, lungs, etc., and
then said:
"No wonder the seers and alchemists
of old declared that 'your bodies are the
temple of the living God' and the

Dear Reader:
kingsdom of heaven is within you.' But man, blinded by selfishness, ignorance and impatience, searches here and there, secures the heavens with his telescope, digs deep into earth, dives into ocean's depths in a vain search for the elixir of life that may be found between the soles of his feet and the crown of his head. Surely our human body is a miracle of mechanism. No work of man can compare with it in accuracy of its process and the simplicity of its laws."
He then began to describe with the aid of charts, the bones, muscles, etc., which was very interesting, his explanations being clear and comprehensive. Continuing, he said:
"At last, we have seen the 'travail of the soul and are satisfied.' No more temples of the Magi now, but instead the glorious human beth (Temple). At last, we have seen the true church of God—the human body. In this church or temple spirit, operates like some wizard chemist or electrician. No more searching through India's jungles or scaling the Himalayan heights in search of a master—a mahatma or ancient priest, dwelling in some mysterious cave, where occult rites and ceremonies are supposed to reveal the wisdom of the past. But instead you have found the kingdom of the real within the temple that needs no outer sun by day or moon or stars by night to illuminate it. And then the enraptured soul becomes conscious that the stone has been rolled away from the door of material concept where it has slept, and it now hears the voice of the Father within in saying 'Let there be light,' and feels the freedom that comes with knowing that Being is one."
"When man finds out what he really is and how much he has always had to do with the making of himself what he is, he will then be ready to grasp some idea of the wonderful possibilities of every human body and will know how completely and entirely is every man his own savor. Just so long as he denies his own powers and looks outside of himself for salvation from present or future ills, he is indeed a lost creature. If the race is to be redeemed, it must come as a result of thought followed by action. If the race is to think differently than at present, it must have new bodies with new brains."

WHEN THE MORON TO MORON
Fewer Trains Ignore
South—Women Suff
Freedom
No more solid trains of twenty coaches densely packed with colored humanity from the South to roll into Union Station carrying its human freight into Northern industries. Not that the movement of colored workers from the South to the North has stopped completely, for every day a few hundred are anticed sprinkled, among the other passengers stopping over here. Workers will continue to trickle North all winter, but the big stream of northward migration is temporarily stopped. Reason for this is the advent of cold weather—one thing the Southernner fears more than anything else. He knows that it takes time to get a house, have it furnished and get some coal in the collar. For this reason he prefers the spring for his big advanced movement.
Another reason is that large industries are not pushing out for men so strongly as they did last spring. Jobs paying good money are open in Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Detroit and Chicago, but the rush to fill fall orders is over. How fast colored people have come northward in the past ten years can be seen from the colored population in the big centers. Chicago has grown from 44,000 to 120,000 in the past ten years: Cleveland from 8,400 to 35,000 and Detroit from 5,000 to 50,000.
Women migrants, generally speaking, are not going into domestic employment. Instead they are increasing in the industries. In Chicago many of them are now in the needle work trades. Numbers are in factories making lamp shades, while in the laundries they are extensively employed. Many work as charwomen and cleaners, wallresses, cooks, milliners, and dressmakers, but at the employment offices comparatively few seek positions as domestics.
NEGRO-HATING MAYOR WANTED KLAN SUPPORT
JOHNSTOWN, Pa., Sept. 27.—Deputy Attorney General English was 'hero this week, investigating conditions among the Mexicans and colored people on the demand, of Governor Pinchot that constitutional rights of all people be safeguarded.
Investigation followed an order by Mayor Caufiel that all colored people and Mexicans not residents here more than seven years leave at once.
Following this demand protests from all parts of the country flowed into his office. Even the Mexican Government took cognizance of his action and instructed its counsel at Philadelphia to make an investigation.
Under the stress of protests from leading white and colored citizens of Johnstown, and vicinity, Mayo- Caufiel finally declared:
"I have done nothing more than use that power I have as mayor of this city to protect white citizens and Negroes, and I do not fear investigation by the governor or anybody else." Caumfalis order he now claims was merely a request following a gun battle in Rosedale a few days ago when two-policemen were shot dead and four others seriously wounded. It is said that since Mayor Caumfalis issued the "order" two weeks ago he has sent more than 100 Negroes to the county jail and about 2,000 Negroes and Mexicans have left Johnstown and vicinity. All brought before him on trivial offenses were fined $100.
Caulfield was a candidate for the Republican renomination last Tuesday at the primary election and ran a poor fourth with four men in the field for the nomination. He was accused of taking the stand against the Negroes as "grandstand" play in an effort to attract klan support, it is claimed, on the eve of the election.
The mayor this week received a message from J. S. Wannamaker, president of the American Cotton Association, offering to see that all legal fees and fines of Negroes are paid and offering work for them in the South, where he said their services are badly needed.
"The South does not approve," he said, "the migration of Negroes to the North."

Secretary-General Robert, L. Poston was next introduced. He delivered some effective remarks regarding the progress of the U. N. I. A. and won the sympathy of the audience by his direct appeal for the Garvey cause and the support of its leaners. He was cheered again and again.
The master of ceremonies then introduced Mr. Garvey, who delivered the main address for which the people had assembled to hear. In making the brief introduction, Mr. Keith said:
"Enough has been said on this occasion in fitting praise of the service Mr. Correy is rendering his people and generation. I want to congratulate you people here—every one of you—for the interest you display and the loyalty you have manifested toward this man of your race and blood. It is a credit to you, to all of us, and we must feel glad that we have arrived at the point where we can stand by our kind through thick and

Healthy Signs
More expression, more activity, more development, more results are, healthy sign of these stirring times. The rebirth finds us undaunted, confraid, unyielding, standing together in unity a solid body of consciously intelligent people, alert to the increasing responsibilities of each day as they bear directly or indirectly on the course mapped out by a superb leadership of foresight, calculating courage and persistence of effort. The petty strife, jealousies, uncharitableness, rivalries and hindrances clear a path of mutual understanding and coming cooperation inside and outside our ranks.
The acid test finds that a powerful magnetic attraction holds each individual true to racial consciousness, self-reliance, mass action and the program of a free, redeemed Africa. The enthusiasm, coupled with the invigorating effect of a grand incentive, relieves our minds of mental bondage, continental blindness, insular stupidity, inter-national mistrust and personal aloofness. In spite of the alchemy of mortals unready to greet the new day and the changes that come with it, times in its unrelenting march—arbiter, of men, circumstances, environment and education—witers away the artificial barriers and devices, leaving unimpaired the original brain, muscle mind and spirit, with their inherent power to place man on the next step of progress.
Knows No Fear
Why fear man? Whoever he is, the same blood and other chemical ingredients that are in his body are in yours. Death comes to him as it does to you or me. Whenever death is the last resort from unjust aggression, die bravely, with courage, give a good account of yourself. "The path of glory leads but to the grave."
The dominant factor in achievement is a right purpose, a true ambition, an honest discontent, a feeling to live and leave clear guiding points to those in the rear. Men and women of Ethiopia, the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League say that it is only in proportion as you have merited a claim to amity, justice, goodwill, individual and national advancement that history will record your deeds. In the interval, you gain the respect and support of your fellow travelers on earth, themselves engaged in the task of national protection.
The contributions made to art, literature, science, medicine, industry, machinery, agriculture and government by the Negro people of the world will have no recognition of a lasting character until they are stabilized and properly broadcasted from the responsible people charged with the duty of advancing our national culture and safeguarding to our posterity the fruits of our endeavors and the success of our army.

enterprise success by association to detail and the harmony of all its working parts. Like armies with sound stomachs, healthy in mind and body, with capable and efficient leaders, taking their objectives with success, an example is set to win each goal by sound principles.
The millions that tramp under the banner of the Red, Black and Green flag, colors that Negroes are proud of, impress the ear with its sure and constant tread. Watchman, what of the night or day on which the army arrives? Be steadfast. Be firm. Be of good courage. Each man to his post, every duty well done.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League march on to their objectives because of their sincere leadership—opinions to the contrary notwithstanding.
In addition to welcoming every shade of opinion and in accepting discussions, constructive criticism and the like, we believe in the honesty of those who want to help us in that direction. It is time that we understand how to do and to dare to do. Merely thinking over and about, the barriers that we must cross or remove from our path has not helped in the past and leave little hope or the future. To begin action right here and now is the blow that weakens the weight that rests on anyone; the big issues are then responsive to treatment, due to the fact the worker assigned to that task is capable and efficient in person, therefore, he or she brings to the duty to be performed, deep thought and mature judgment. These things are stressed because the children of today must catch the actual demonstration of these qualities in those with whom the come in contact; the result; the result will be a progressive young party in complete harmony with a set desire and the means to attain it.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League as they urge Negroes everywhere to check up on those in whom they have entrusted their welfare, desire to make it possible for executive and worker to adjust to their mutual benefit the plans undertaken in their common interest.
Environment
The complex conditions making up modern life, including the peculiar conditions under which Negroes live, make it an imperative duty on the part of writers of our race to atom the tide that sweeps us on to a proper port under strict orders. The organizations above mentioned are more than patient in that they are suggestive, rather than dictative. In the event of the necessity to come more in the open with these issues, it may be forgotten that we have been frank in this direction. If the assumption is that there is unreadiness on the part of the Negro masses, then it is high time that they be made ready to take their place in the new order of things. It is easy to declare what has pot been done—then there is reluctance on the part of those wanting things done to assail—also they are people who stand in the way of things being done; in this queer set of conditions a broad understanding and a keen intellect are required to make a strong impression, influencing action in the right direction.
Strong exception may be taken to the statement that the learning or education of Negroes has not been towards a purposeful life—that is to say, that no Negro up to the present time has been educated, advised or inspired to consider himself a unit in the body politic of his dominant overlord or his relationship to the national life with corresponding duty to the coming generations.
"Looking these vital levers which release energy to accomplish big things, the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League step in to their part. It is earnestly hoped for that the time is not far distant when forward looking men and women will rise to the occasion and, instead of feeling themselves able to withstand the difficulties that must be met, will buckle on the armor of strength and service, reading out everywhere, in the general improvement of a race anxious to reward true service.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League does not fall to measure the service of those courageous souls before our time who played great parts on the stage of human experience; neither is it their intention to detract from efforts in other fields.

By G. EMONEI CARTER
Subject, "Missionary Responsibility of Youth"
Text: "Thou hast the dew of Thy youth." Ps. 110:3.
(Continued from last issue.)
John Wagley, the Martin Luther of the last century, was but two and twenty when he began his immortal campaign. In early life Fred W. Robertson, that prophet of the Lord, "was called of God as was Aaron." Charles Haddon Spurgeon moved the metropolis before he was twenty-one. William Morley Punshon began his truly missionary ministry in very boyhood. Marcuss Garvey aroused, awakened, and put to thinking 400,000,000 black-folks, before he was thirty-two years old. In pass days as today Christ's youth has been to Him "as the dew." If you would see how factual is the prophecy of my text, read the records of the Christian struggle, and watch the soldiers of Christ as today they set forth "marching as to war."
You realize the scale on which Christ has the allegiance of youth when you survey the missionary world of, today. In the, say 250 missionary societies extant, a vast majority of the workers and of the adherents are young men and women. Of the some 72 women's missionary societies, which exist, a colossal proportion are young women. It is significant of which that we have today such noble missionary effort under the auspices of Student's Volunteer Movements, Young People's Societies of Christian Endeavor, and Young Men's Christian Associations. In the 7,800 churches of the mission field youth is enormously represented. Of the, it is computed, over 44,000 native laborers abroad, a great percentage is youth. Nay, it is allowed that there are 185 associations of native young men, who are connected with Young Men's Christian Associations. Of the 900,000 church members in heathen lands, youth is a conspicuous element; and still more emphatically may this be said of the 3,000,000 adherents of the missionary churches.
In the youth of the mission field today history again repents itself. It has ever been true, alike as an concerns workers and 'converts, that Christ has the dew of His youth. Carey, Duff and Livingstone were young men when they began their work in Africa. Today, and ever, some of the grandest trophies of our God have been won from the ranks of youth; and, as I see the ever multiplying concourse of converts, I thankfully cry, "O Christ. Thy youth is to Thee as the dew."
O youth, pledged to the Christ, rest not until universal youth is in the glorious Lord as the dew drops of the morning!
"The manifest appropriateness of such responsibility."
Here what is said must be outlined rather exhaustive. It might easily be shown that for every purpose youth should identify itself with the Saviour. But supremely congruent it is that such alliance should take place for the purpose of the salvation of the world. This is the central thought of our text. It is for conquest, for missionary purposes, that the royal Conqueror's "youth" are to Him "as the dew."
On what reasonable grounds may the missionary appeal to youth be urged? I can only now assign but one or two. Reluctantly we must all but pass by the suggestive fact: Christ himself was a young man. No marvel, the young Commander's seismon rouses the
devotion of young goldsmith: Like dream life. The Son of Man lived a young man's life, and died a young man's death. Oh, the pathos of it!
"Not a golden hair was gray upon His Crucifixion day."
Significant it is that His earthly achievements are the achievements of youth. No wonder the angel, who sat in the vagant sepulchre, was a young man! It was a Young Man who left the world blessing it, and who returned to his original home evermore to make intercession for the world. He had redeemed. It is still a young man. Divine, who sits, expecting till His enemies be made His foottool. All this in the personality of the Divine Man may well-inspire the enthusiastic devotion of young men.
We cannot linger, either upon the wonderful appeal which Christ's teaching makes to youth. There is something in it which fires the blood; it is splendid idealism; its superb ethical purity; its practical helpfulness; its gorious altruism. Explain it as we may, the teaching of Jesus casts a spell upon youth and charms it. Youth over waits a teacher and responds right, readily to the authentic voice of Jesus. This should mean intensely, and mean good for the sublime causes whose interests we seek.
But I desire specially to indicate certain distinctively missionary considerations which morally demonstrate the appropriateness, of the allegiance of youth to the missionary Christ. (a) The history of missions should appeal to youth.
Youth has strong historical instincts. It is attired by an appeal to the heroic past. It finds many of its choicest inspirations in the study of history. Let us, oh, black youth, search the revolutionary pages of history, alluding to black men, until our hearts are fired, our visions broadened, and our minds made up to stop only when Africa is redeemed.
(b) The wonderful opportunities of missionary work today appeal to youth. Youth loves new occasions. Youth is the season of endearment. It delights in the spheres of prowess. The white youth has had his eyes opened to the wide door of opportunity, and Africa

does not wait for youthful white missionaries.
Awake oh, black youth, young men and midsome, and to the task before you. Find in Afric, that which you have sought in America, and Western civilization, and yet you are still looking for. Grasp the opportunity—and make glad many hearts.
c) The assured consummation of missionary work should profoundly appeal to youth.
Youth delights in ideals; shining goals; radiant prospects. Then, indeed, this sacred cause makes an irresistible appeal. What is the final of missionary work to be? There is but one admissible reply: Triumph indescribable.
The ends of the earth shall see the salvation of God. The Son of God shall have the nations for His "inheritance." O young men, seize on this sure and certain hope. "Every soul shall bow at last and yield allegiance to its Lord." Let this sublime outlook nerve you. Let it thrill you with unquenchable optimism.
The Gospel is every creature's birthright; let every creature receive it. Sympathize: Labor! Give! It is the day of Emmanuel's army. Let His people offer themselves willingly, and let His youth be to Him "as the dew."
TRIBUTE TO BANES, CUBA
In a letter to the editor, Mr. Richard Hilton Bachelor, who represented the Guantanamo Division at the convention held by the Banes Division, Cuba, writes in part: "I was deeply impressed by the wonderful display given by the uniformed ranks of the Banes Division and particularly the discipline among all the units. On my arrival I was given a hearty welcome and every one tried to make me feel at home. The convention, which lasted three days, was well attended by the members and friends, and those who took part in the discussions and the debates exhibited a high order of intelligence and showed a thorough knowledge of the

One thing is certain, and that it's that the Banes Division in the best organized division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the Republic of Cuba. I can never forget the farewell address of Mr. B. Norton of Baneg. As I sat and listened to his eloquence it seemed as if I were filled with a new energy and spirit to go on in the work of uplifting a race, and greater faith also came to me in the ability of the U.

Last week we promised you sketches of the work, being done by the various auxiliaries of this division. We are writing about the police force at this time, simply because we desire to stress the value of "loyalty" and find in this body many admirable points upon which to write. Mr. Charlie Johnson, who is in charge, is well known, as a U. N. I. A. enthusiast, and, aided by the other officers and men, is responsible to the president, Dr. Lionel A. Francis, for the preservation of order at all public meetings. This they do without friction and to the satisfaction of the entire membership. They not only give their services in this special manner, but also believe that as members of this great cause, individually and collectively, they must contribute financially at least as much as any other member or auxiliary, and in many cases more. We shall cite as an example the contribution to the defense fund of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. We were all equally perturbed at the confinement of this super-race advocate, and desired in like measure his early release. We gave from our hearts our all. Many did this openly, and still many privately, but the police force was to the front every week with an amount, whether small or large, gathered from the body, and which went down on record as such. For devotion and zeal we feel safe in saying that this body of Negro manhood stands out as a shining light of determination, backed by effort, to put our race on equal footing with the other races of the world; yea, governments.

HARLEM NEGROES TO HEAR WORLD'S GREATEST ORATOR
Eugene V. Debs, for two score years the spiritual leader of the awakened workers, of America and most outspoken, apostle of economic and social equality, will speak to the Negroes of Harlem on Tuesday evening, October 30th, at 5 P. M., in the Commonwealth Casino, 189th Street, between Fifth and Madison Avenue.
Says Debs, "Everytime I meet a colored man face to face, even in prison, I blush with a sense of guilt that prompts me to apologize to him for the crime perpetrated upon his race by mine. I aspire to no higher honor than to stand side by side, fighting the battles of the workers, black and white and all other colors, for industrial freedom and a better day for all humanity."
The General Administration will be 55c. Reserved Scott, 85c.
It is with no small amount of pride and joy that I send you this contribution with the hope that you will find space for it in your valuable paper. We, of the Banes Division, have noted very carefully the untiring efforts displayed by our officers in New York and the general membership of the U. N. I. A. throughout the world on behalf of our gallant leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, which efforts have brought about his release. We wish to extend to the four divisions which so quickly raised the amount of the ball bond our alcense congratulations. You have made your mark in the world led on by your love and esteem and admiration for Mr. Garvey, and we promise to follow in your footsteps.
Thank God, the "African tiger," which is tearing away the chains from around the necks of Negroes, is once more free. Thank God, no prison bars could silence the clarion voice of this instrument of Jehovah, which has never ceased to speak forth words of truth and send out messages of inspiration to his fellow men throughout the world. Once more our enemies are dumfounded and critics silenced. The Hon. Marcus Garvey has shown his sincerity of heart and the unquenchable love which dwells in his bosom for his people.
Fellow men of the Negro race, let me implore you to carry on. "Liberty or death" is our password. Would to God that all Negroes would stand together with one determination! Would to God that Dubois and Pickens and Johnson and the rest of them would lay aside their Jealousy and envy and fall in line with us and help us to make one desperate effort to lift up this'race of ours and place it in the vanguard of nations!
I am glad to be able to report that the Banes Division is now more determined than ever to continue in the fight until Africa is redeemed.
Yours for racial uplift.
R. F. BLAKE.
President Banes Division.

issues of Harlem on Tuesday evening, October
On Sunday, September 30, the Friar Division of the U. N. L. A. held a press meeting, which was fairly well attended. The meeting was opened with the basting of "From Guatemala to Mexico," followed by prayer. The chief, rendered some beautiful selections after which the president, in a few remarks, encouraged the members, to be loyal and to keep on until we shall have attained our goal. Rev. Mr. Sellers was then introduced and gave an excellent talk, in which he endeavored to show that the Hon. Marcus Carvey was an instrument in the hands of God to lead His people out of bondage. Mesera, Miller and Blake also spoke on the objects and aims of the association, which they said was the greatest association for Negroes in the world. The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.

PETLYN U. K. L. M. WORKER
BELATES IN MEMORIAM TO
TRIAL AND CONVOLTION
OF PRESIDENT - GENERAL
As a constant worker of the Universal Negro Improvement Association since 1912, I thought that there was nothing to increase my assiduity for this great cause, but I was mistaken. The trial, conviction and imprisonment of our beloved chief shattered this deception. While others were hovering around the court buildings and Liberty Hall on that memorable Monday night awaiting the verdict, I was lying in bed pondering over what course of procedure under the circumstances would be productive of the best results. Knowing that the enemies of human justice care nothing about reason, the first thought that crossed my mind was whether I should re-enact Peter or Guy Fawkes.
Being an agent for the Negro-Times during this trying period, and thereby having the opportunity of coming in contact with so many members, once members and non-members of the U.N. I. A., and listening to their opinions on this momentous question, it was apparent that the harvest was ripe, but that the laborers were few. It was then that the thought came to me that a more vigorous street campaign should be waged in the interest of this great comfort that God has sent us, and the question of Negro nationhood.
In my search for harvesters I came in contact with Mr. E. Borne, N. Y.; Mr. E. Thorpe, 148 Jefferson avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y.; Mr. W. Med. Holder, 240 West 64th street, New York city; Mr. Alfred Edow, 204 West '62d street, New York city; Mrs. Alice Simmons, 229 West 63d street, New York city, with Master George Ingram Taftford Sumuels, like a mighty twentieth century, watchman on the African tower, sounding the alarm that, since Europe is for the Europeans, Asia for the Asiatics, since white Americans claim all of America, in spite of the fact 4,000,000 sons and daughters of Africa labored for 250 years without pay to lay the foundation of this great Republic, then by God Africa shall be for the Africans. Although the enemies tried to disturb our meetings by creating arguments with our audiences, we are able to report as a result of our efforts an increase in the membership and finances of Chapter No. 61, East Brooklyn, and the reorganization of Chapter No. 1 of New York. There were other members of our field corps who did not prepare up so well this year, but we hope to be able to place them on the honor list for 1924. J. E. SAMUELS.
TORONTO DIVISION'S SPLENDID TEAM WORK
TORONTO DIVISION'S SPLENDID TEAM WORK
The Toronto Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is making rapid progress under the aha management of their newly elected president, assisted by the royal officers of the division. There is now a wonderful spirit of harmony and love existing among the members, and everyone seems anxious to cooperate in the work so as to build up a large division. In spite of the inclemency of the weather a large number of members and friends turned out to the Sunday evening meeting. Promptly at 3:30 the meeting was called to order by the president and the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains," was sung. The devotional exercises were gone through by the chaplain, who read from the first chapter of Isaiah.
At the close of the religious part of the meeting the president delivered a sano and timely address, which was listened to with rapt attention by the entire audience. Mrs. Alfred Harewood was then introduced by the president, who spoke highly of her service to the association, after which Mrs. Harewood was asked to take the chair. The following program was then rendered: Solo, Mrs. Colston; address, Mrs. Harewood, address by the first vicepresident; plano solo, Mrs. William; reading, Mr. Mayers; recitation, Mr. Harewood; plano solo, Mr. Fred Robinson; address, Riley.
The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the National Anthem.
DONORA DETERMINED
Donora Division No. 500 is more determined than ever to go on with the fight for a free and redeemed Africa. We are sure that under the noble leadership of the Hon. Marcus Garvey we shall achieve success, and we are proud to follow such a leader. We had a visit from Mr. Joseph Wright of the Buffalo division, who spoke of our Sunday evening meeting, and fired the audience with a stronger determination to keep on with the fight and help to unfurl the red, the black, and the green in our motherland. Africa. We are expecting a visit from some of the members of the Pittsburgh division in the very near future. Our president is working hard to build up the division, and the members are making every effort to help him make Donora a model division. We extend a hearty welcome 'to all members and friends who may find themselves in. Donora are nearby to attend our Sunday afternoon meetings, which begin at 2:30 p.m. and close at 5:30.
P. BEAL, Secretary.
The following is a list of the officers of the division: Mr. J. D. Monday, president; Mrs. Lila, McIntire, lady president; Mrs. Martha Reynolds, vice-president; Mr. Chas, Harrison, financial secretary; trustees, E. D. Reynolds, chairman; C. L. Harrison, M. McConnell, J. W. Whitaker, C. L. Dale.
ST.-THOMAS DIVISION
The St. Thomas division No. 84 is still alive and is trying to keep the Red, Black and Green adout in the island of St. Thomas. In spite of all opposition and the peculiar conditions under which we have to work, we are still strong in our faith in the U. N. L. A. and its undisable leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey. We are small in numbers but are prepared to give our financial and moral support to the last man, and we will not shirk our duty in the fight for a free and redeemed Africa. The U. N. L. A. is without doubt the last hope of the Negro. If this association should be eroded then the Negro race might consider itself doomed forever and ever. Your sincerely,

This lady, during the four months she has been with us, has endowed herself to every member of the local. She has given of her best whenever called upon to help in the work of the local, and we trust that her example will be followed by those whom she is leaving behind. Mrs. Dumman came to us from the Kingston division; and we regret very much that necessity calls her back to her home. We are certain that she will be a tower of strength to the Kingston division and will gain many friends there friends as true and as faithful as those she is leaving.
Several farewell speeches were delivered at the meeting, but special mention must be made of the address made by Mrs. L.

As man to be expected, Marcus Garvey has been found guilty by a jury of white men of using the United States mails to defraud. Many believe that the charge was only a sham to get Garvey with the hope of destroying his work. The whole thing seems to be inside up of an international probe which will shortly expose itself. Several Negro men and organizations have been parties to what some regard as a "frame-up" but Truth shall have a hearing.

Sugen noticias publicadas en la presa de Puerto Rico, al governor-Townner visitara la república dominicana en el presente mes, acompañado de otros dios funcionarios de quel gobierno. El viaje dura pocos días, y tanto el governor como sus acompañantes lo haran de incognito por ser esta una excursion recreativa.
Una Apelación al Sentimiento Humano del Nueva Mundo
—La Solución de Nuestro Problema—La Concienciación Sólida, Convincente y Demetrativa—El Negro en un Ser Humano Con Sentimiento, Con Alma, Con Pasiones y Con Deseos—Una Nueva Generación de Nuestra Raza Atraerá la Atención del Universo
El senor Such, director de la compañía de vapores Bull Insular Line, prepara al efecto un hermoso vapor que amo no ha puesto en servicio, el cual desea inaugurar con el viaje de dicha excursion.
El viaje presenta a los funcionarios portorrquenos una oportunidad para cambiar impresiones con sus vecinos dominicanos, sobre el mejor medio para establecer un intercambio mas provechoso entre los dos paises.
El alma del blanco americano liberal; filantrópico y amante de la libertad un no ha muerto. Si hemos de admitir que la ambición material, la política y las represalias industriales han destruido hasta cierto grado la inocencia y pureza de la conciencia nacional, existe todavía un profundo sentimiento de simpatia humana que toca el alma del blanco americano, del cual el sufrido y el infortunado pueden siempre depender. A tal sentimiento apelamos al presente, en beneficio de los cuatrocientos millones de nuestra raza en el universo y de los quince millones en el coloso del norte en particular.
No se cree, sin embargo, que la visita a aquier país concida con la celebración de las proximas elecclones, por la interpretación que en los circulos políticos pudiera prestarse a la noticia.
Nobleza Rusa Viaja en Calidad de Emigrantes
No existe un verdadero blanco en America que no deseca la solución de nuestro problema como raza. Cada ciudadano tiene probablamente su propia idea de como la cuestión de razas deba ser solucionada. Para unos el Negro puede ser anulado por medio de asesinatos, de opresión económica y de esclavitud; para otros el problema puede ser resuelto congregando a la raza en general en un sitio determinado; para muy pocos, y estos son aquellos que tienen interés en nuestra explotación, se puede permitir al Negro convivir con los demás como un beneficiado de una filantropia equivoca, sin embargo, con muy poca generosidad en el deseo de verle elevarse a un estado de verdadero progreso y proporidad, creando una nación prepotente, con su propio sistema de gobierno, de civilización y de cultura, que le conceptue admisible en la fraternidad de las nacioncs y de las razas sin desventaja alguna.
En el vapor griego Constantinople han llegado al puerto de Nueva York treinta y nueve personas rusos, quienes en un tiempo, pertenecieron a la alta aristocracia de aquel país y aun ostentan titulos ponpos de los antiguos dominios del Czar. Esta representación de la nobleza rusa hizo la travesia en un union de secientes tres, emigrantes rusos, quienes venian en la tercera del buque. Puede formarse una idea de la situación económica de estos futuros ciudadanos americanos, al saber que la cantidad de dinero de que disponian entre todos ascendía a la infima suma de treinta y seis rublos.
En el libro de registro del Constantinople constaban once principes, doce princesas, seis barones ocho baronesas y seis condes. Entre ellos solamente uno hablo en ingles en nombre de los demas, manifestando que ellos en la epoca actual estaban anulados y eran simples emigrantes.
No ha sido ni será nunca nuestra intención ofender a aquellos amigos de la raza, quienes realmente creen ser bondadosos y considerados de nuestro pueblo; pero como uno de nuestros grandes deberes apelamos a la conciencia y no a la creencia. La conciencia es sólida, convincente y demostrativa; la creencia es simplemente una cuestión de opinión, suceptible a razonamientos superiores. En clierta época la creencia general estribaba en que era adecuado el mantener al Negro en estado de esclavitud; mas tarde esta opinión sufrió un gran cambio, pero en todas las edades la conciencia de cierta parte del pueblo ha dictado a los demas el que es inhumano someter a esclavitud al semejante.
La mayor parte de ello permanecieron algún tiempo en Constantinopla, en donde se refugiaron después del fracaso sufrido por la expedición de Wrangel. El pasaje a este país les fue pagado por varios co-merciantes americanos establecidos en el Oriente.
El Prejuicio Origina Incidente Fatal
Juan Fernica, barbero de origen italiano, perecio a manos de Julio Rodriguez, joven de la raza, por haber reusado el primero afecitarle a causa del color de Rodriguez. Este habia sido del mismo modo reusado, poco antes del suceso, en otra barberia contigua donde se le manifesto que alli no se servía a gente de color.
El Negro es un ser humano, con sentidos, con alma, con pasión, con ambiciones y con deseos exactamente iguales a los de cualquier otro ser, por cuya razón debe ser considerado como tal. Ha tomado el blanco americano en consideración todas estas cualidades naturales? La respuesta es indudablemente conclusiva.
Toda vez que no se actue definitivamente la solución de nuestro problema, presagiamos dos consecuencias funestas: O se nos continua avejando hasta que se haya completado, la gran civilización americana con su progreso en arte, en ciencia, en industria, en política, y entonces, celosos ellos con su propio éxito y realizaciones, y mas celosos aun al ver a su raza libre de toda mescla, se nos arrojará al vendabal de la presión económica, descartandose de otra raza que no fue suficientemente inteligente para subsistir, ó por bondad ó por cualquier otra circunstancia se nos asimilará en la fraternidad social de una raza americana que no será ni blanca ni negra.
Al ser reusado por Fernicia, Rodriguez sacó sur revolver e hizo dos disparos los cuales caauaron la muerte instantanea de aquel. Al salir a la calle perseguido por la multitud que se habia aglomerado frente al local, fue arrestado por un policía quien en union de varios compañeros, tuvieron que tomar precauciones para librar a Rodriguez de las iras del público. Rodriguez habia llegado a esta ciudad-hace pocas semanas procedente de Mejico, en donde ha trabajado como vaquero por muchos años.
No nos alarmemos; tenemos que prevenir ambas consecuencias. Ningun blanco amante de su raza desea destruir la pureza de esta; ningun Negro conciente desea verse avejado por mas tiempo; por consiguiente, queda aún espacio para un entendimiento y un reajuste, siendo este nuestra mas serviente.aspiración. Nuestra raza no progresará en America siempre que sea ella la victima del mostruoso mal del prejuicio. Este ejercerá su influencia malefica, toda vez que el uno intente usurpar los derechos del otro; ocupando puestos en la agricultura, en la industria, en el comercio, en la política, en el gobierno, todo lo cual trae por resultado una rivalidad abominable.
Matanza de Hebreos
Rumania
Ha empezado de nuevo la matanza de hebreos en Rimania y los semitas huyen a las fronteras despavoridos. La prensa excita una intensa campaña en contra de intensa campaña y en reuniones publicas se incita la exterminación de los hebreos.
En el período de cien años mas la raza predominante en esta parte del globo habrá duplicado su población; el observador realizará que el transcurso de los siglos convertirá a este en un país extradamente, población, en donde las oportunidades escasearán a medida que la población aumente; la competencia entre el pueblo de su propia raza será mas tirante y no habrá espacio para que dos razas distintas, la una fuerte y la otra débil, compitan.
Se asegura que uno de los instigadores del movimiento es el profesor Kouyi de la universidad de Jassy. Los estudiantes de dicha universidad han amenazado de muerte a todo hebreo que se arriesgue a pasearse por las inmediaciones de la institución.
Imaginemos fiscales, jueces, senadores, representantes, alcaldes oficiales del gobierno artesanos y peones, todos elementos de nuestra raza en sus respectivas ocupaciones, mientras millones de las ótras razas con igual derecho sufren privaciones. Cuál seria el resultado de este estado de cosas? Ninguna ley ó disposición gubernamental podria contener la pasión de individuos con prejuicio cuando se llegue la hora. Esto no ocurrirá en el presente y laboramo para prevenir el que ocurra en el futuro.
Enemigo de la Razza Anulado
Los resultados de las elecciones primarias celebradas en la ciudad de Johnstown, estado de Pennsylvania, indican que el alcalde Cauffiel, quien despertó una tormenta de protestas con orden, requiriendo a todos los elementos de la raza que residieran alli por menos de diez años a dejar la localidad, ha sido derrotado como candidato para el mismo puesto.
Podría este país ocultar la verdad de su constitución, negando el derecho a una riqueva generación de elementos de nuestra raza, procedentes de los mejores colegios, universidades e instituciones, capaces para ocupar puestos en la industria, en el comercio, en la política y en el gobierno de la nación? Existe una sola solución y esta es el proveer un sitio adecuado para el desarrollo de nuestra energía y de nuestra ambición, lejos de la atracción de otras oportunidades, rodeando a la raza con las suyas propias; de otro modo las consecuencias serán funestas para la raza y sus ideales de justicia y de progrreso se esfumarán en el espacio del eterno prejuicio.
En Pro de la Industria Haitiana
Con el fin de estimular el desarrollo agricola e industrial en la república haitiana, se ha puesto recientemente en vigor una ley en la cual se provee la reducción en los derechos de importación, sobre un gran número de artículos clasificados como maquinaria y otros aparatos accessorios.

It has come to the knowledge of the parent body that occasionally self-seeking and unprincipled individual or officers of divisions would make effort to induce the membership to promote or start new corporations or enterprises separate or distinct from the U. N. L. A. for the purpose of serving their own personal ends, under the guise of speaking disloyally against the parent body to win the sympathy and approval of such local membership in their schemes. All members are, therefore, advised to keep a watchful eye to see that no new enterprise is put over by any one among the membership and that all matters involving the investment of money be first approved by the parent body. Please remember that it is only when all the divisions act in unison, according to the constitution, can the parent body carry out its program. Watch for persons who desire to use the local membership for their own personal benefit and not for the program of the U. N. L. A.

Secretario de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanta de la Raza, Negra.
Tenemos el honor de exponerle que en la junta general celebrada en la noche del 17 del pasado por este Capítulo No. 71, se acordó se le pasara una comunicación a este Cuerpo Directivo, dando a conocer la imensa satisfacción y regocijo que ha causado entre los componentes de este Capítulo, al tener conocimiento de la libertad provisional de nuestro honorable presidente general Marcus Garvey.
Y, ao era de esperar otra cosa ante la inocencia demostrada por ese inmaculado y prestigioso ciudadano, pues el civismo, la dignidad y el prestigio demostrados en esos días de duras pruebas antes los demas, hombres por nuestro digno Presidente, le ha hecho acreedor a la unánime distinción de propios y extraños, de amigos y hasta de sus propios enemigos sistemáticos.
El honorable Marcus Garvey, Presidente General de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra y Liga de Comunidades Afriacanas, acaba de apurar la copa amarga, sacrificindose en aras de su ideal sagrado, de una causa justa y noble que muchos no han podido comprender, y por ello la gran equivocación y el error conetido a base de indigidad, por los modernos caines de esta época. El, el Moises de la raza, ha dado una prueba mas de su imponderable valor, de su resuelta decisión demostrada en el calvario de los sufrimientos, sin hacer el menor gesto de sumisión ni cobardia, lo cual hubiera dado lugar a la censura, captándose la mayor estimación y el mayor respeto de sus semajantes, por lo cual el Capitulo Cubano No. 71, integrado por hijos de este país, en acatamiento a esas excelsas virtudes, le felicita y le ratifica su confianza, hasta verle convertido en el primer magistrado universal de nuestra raza.
Por tal motivo nos regocijamos y nos felicitamos a la vez, al formar parte integrante de una organización que se dirije por medio de estas exposiciones, demostrando lo que siente y lo que piensa, teniendo la firme seguridad de que la salida de esa prisión ha de ser de una vez y para siempre, porque entendemos que los magistrades, que son todos honorables ciudadanos, sabrán escudriñar todo lo necesario antes de imitir su fallo, y cuando den fiel cumplimiento a los mandatos de la ley, lo harán con toda la imparcialidad que se require en ellos delicados asuntos, en atención a las dotes de caballerosidad y grandes virtudes civicas, encarnadas en ese ilustre ciudadano y la inocencia que es la mayor gloria que le asiste como hombre digno y puro, conocedor de sus derechos y cumplidor de sus deberes.
Asi lo espera que Capitulo, y saluda respetuosamente a todos los hermanosanas y pasivos que siguen con nuestra causa, a ese Cuerpo Directivo y a los familiares de nuestro presidente general, el honorable Marcus Garvey, al que siente no poderle abrazar cuisivamente, para demostrarle personalmente lo mucho que se le estima. Sin mas que exponerle, quedamos a vuestras ordenes como sus servidores y hermanos.
Socorros Para las Victimas

La catastrose sufirida en el japon ha despertado que se traduce en socorros para las víctimas. En la ciudad de Seattle, estado de Washington, hay provisiones alma-cenadas que incluyen treinta mil sacos de harina, algunos centenares de toneladas de comestibles en conserva, de carne, pescado, cereales, legumbres y leche condensada, ademas de ropa, calsado y utiles de casa. La suma reunida en efectivo asciende a cerca de diez millones. El departamento de comercio calenda, según datos oficiales, en mil millones la pedida total experimentada por el imperio japones, a causa de los últimos terremotos.
Patron Monteario Con Mas
Valor Como Papel Viejo
Los marcos alemanes valen mas actualmente como papel viejo que como moneda. Segun las ultimas cotizaciones, un million de marcos equivale a siete decimas de centavo; y esa misma cantidad en papel moneda vendida al precio corriente del papel viejo, ascenderia a cuatro pesos moneda americana. En este país existen grandes cantidades de marcos, pero su valor es casi nulo delido a la exhorbitante baja sufrida en dicho cambio.

A Remarkable Home Treatment Given by One Who Had It.
In the year of 1893 I was attacked by Muscular and Subacute Rheumatism.
I suffered as only those who are thus afflicted know, for over three years. I tried remedy after remedy, but such relief as I obtained was only temporary. Finally, I found a treatment that cured me completely and such
a pitiful condition has never returned. I have given it to a number who were terribly afflicted even bedridden some of them seventy to eighty, years old and the results were the same as in my own case.
I want every sufferer from any form of muscular and subacute (swelling at the joints) rheumatism to try the great value of my improved "Home Treatment" for its remarkable healing power.
Don't send a cent simply mail your name and address and I will send it free to try. After you have used it and it has proven itself to be that long-looked for means of getting rid of such forms of rheumatism, you may send the price of it, one dollar, but understand I do not want your money unless you are perfectly satisfied to send it. Isn't that fair? Why suffer any longer when relief is thus offered you free? Don't delay. Write today.

WASHINGTON, D. C.—It has been officially approved that Dr. Charles M. Griffith has been made head of Potter's Hospital, No. 91, at Tuskegee, thereby supplanting Dr. Robert M. Stanton, who resigned and was sent to New Mexico. Dr. Griffith who first assistant to Stanley. Attention has been called by the Civil Service Commission to the fact that Negro applicants for the various positions have not materialized as rapidly as was hoped for. It is pointed out that there are many positions, both professional and civil, still unified and that Negro control will be delayed until qualified people have been secured, and shown themselves competent to handle the various duties. The Veterans' Bureau indicates that the chief issue involved is the best possible care of the patients, but that now the road is clear for Negro people to assume the various positions. It is up to the group to produce the applicants for places. Negro physicians and civilians are being urged to apply and stand examination.
MOREHOUSE COLLEGE
Athletic Squad Starts Training
ATLANTA. Ga., Sept. 29. Forty-five men reported to Coach B. T. Harvey. Several new prospects were present. The whole week has been spent in teaching the squad the fundamentals, so that the new material has had no chance to make a showing. The team has lost four letter-men. The remainder of last year's squad is back with the exception of the two ends. Gayles and Starr. Coach Harvey is putting the squad through strenuous practice. Most of the time is spent running back punts, kicking, bucking and throwing forward passes. The Tigers have a hard schedule this year. The first game is with the hard-playing Twenty-fourth Infantry of Camp Benning on October 6. This team suffered only one defeat last year and is out this year for a clean record.
Capt. Charles Kelley, "Red" Williams,
"Key West" Irving and the rest of last
season's first-string men are showing
good form. Great things are expected
of this year's team.

U. M. I.A. FORGING AHEAD IN KINGSTON, JAMAICA
Birth Place of Founder of Movement Going Over the Top
Encouraging news has been received from Kingston Division No. 100. Those who are acquainted with the peculiar conditions of island and color, which exist in the island of Jamaica, know that it is not only the opposition of the whites that the U. N. I. A. has to face, but also that of the would-be-white Negro. Shade prejudice has held the island in a vice-like grip, retarding its progress, and greatly assisting the British in enforcing measures detrimental to the interest of the masses. It is noted with pleasure however, that the U. N. I. A., by its widespread

proposals and the ethical and intelligent management of the affairs of the Jamaican division, is slowly but surely breaking down the 'shade pr. judea' and bringing the people together socially, politically and industrially. Garverson is sweeping over gamalee like an galanche and is destined to play an important part in the affairs of the island.
In a letter to the High Commissioner-General, President B. M. Jones, the able and genial president, the man whom Marcus Garvey placed at the head of affairs in Kingston and under whose control the division has made such wonderful strides, writes:
"The division in resource, which you organised while you were in Jamaica, is making splendid progress. Although this division has only been in existence one year, they have almost completed their Liberty Hall. I am also pleased to inform you that Spanish Town Division has taken on a new life, so much so that I sent this week $63.64 for sup-
pilson, etc. Liberty Hall, in Kingston, has become the centre of attraction meetings are well attended on Sunday, Monday, and Friday night, and there is hardly any standing room on Wednesday night.

In the light of that we are calling upon all the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association everywhere to renew your faith. It is for you to renew your courage to pledge your strength to the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We are simply entrancing ourselves deeper now. We are preparing now to climb the hill. We are preparing to meet the great inevitable conflict that is to come. We are preparing now, with our organizing of Negroes, in order that when the time present itself for black man to strike the blow for freedom, Negroes will be so thoroughly organized that at one command—let us hope at the command of the Hon Marcus Garvey—they will strike the blow that will give to posterity a new Negro nation and a new Negro people."
