HELPFUL TO
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."

S: NEGROES BUILD
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.

‘[*. modern world is overran with people who are talkers
. rather than doers of the word, and who, constructing noth-
‘ ate , es
1 ~".os ing-themselves, find their chief occupation and Pleastire in
critcising apd 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 ‘ot always possiblé to understand how
Vian Wor : agg :
“Our esteemed contemporary, the Cotton Farmer, of Scott. Miss,
“Sees-the matter a8 we do. In a recent issue; it has-the following to
gay: 7 : .
“We'know one thing, and phat is, the same clement pursu-
ing Garvey to his persecution and desired death is the same
clement that pursued Booker Washington to the brink of his
* grave, and even now throws black ink on his monument.
Booker created payrolls, and was x constructive race
builder, and the clement 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 detruction and persecu-
tion. But they have nevet hesitated in their work, even if it lead to
imprisonment, or the scaffold, or the lynchtree. Dr. Washington
recognized the Biblical truth that “sa man's enemies are those of his
caen household,” but he went on tote end doing things and en-
couraging others to do them! Marcus Garvey has the like feeling
und the like determination. Ile sees clearly what he wants to do
_and gots abotit doing it, which is the enly safe way to get anything
done as it should be, undisniayed 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 thet ajertidid
work? Is theré'a-nobler work? We think not.
VIRGIN ISLANDERS SHOULD HAVE RELIEF
K call attention to the article in this issue of The. Negro
W World, headed, “Exodus From the. Virgin Islands,” he-
cause 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 #landers 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 thag 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 Americam’ control has brought
upon them, but the gestrictions are such that only « few of them can
do so.° Conditions such as the American Government has forced
upon thé people of the Virgin Islands should ‘not be possible any-
where.under the American flag, and‘we believe that’ proper presenta-
tion of the facts, and constant agitation, will lead the administration |
to recommend to the Congress some sort of representative Severn:
ment. Naval or military administration is never satisfactory in
titers of war, and nobody expects it to be so in times-of peace,

‘The condition of affairs in the State of Oklahoma, which threatened
civil war for a time, provoked by the efforts of Governor Walton to
:eurb the lawless acts of iviembers of the Ki Klis Klan aigaifist white
persons, was nothing: more than was to have been expected. giW’hy?
Because the Ku Klux Klan did business for fifty years ia the South-
ern States without substantial’interference by the State or Federal
authorities, the whole nation standing by consenting. Why?. Be
cause 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 storckeepers
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 wiib controlled affairs in-the
South and found it’ profitable to tyrannize over, humijiate and ‘rob
the Negro, reached the conclusion that it would be good and profit-
able to treat the poor and unfortunate members of their own Tace in
the same way. Selfishness and grecd grow fat on what they 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 Statas tliat it has been decided
to transfer the national -headquarters from -Atlunta, in Georgia, tu!
Indianapolis, in Indiana, in which State it is now said to be strongest, |
and’ m which if is said to control the Republicam party, which is re-
sponsible for allowing the Kian to exist and gtow to natiorial cénse-|
quence. If it should destroy the Republican party in the North aa}
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 blond f
and tears, and they are not always allowed to know what they have |’
Neen guilty of that they should be punished so severely in their pride, |,
in their wealth, and in their blood and tears. 2 '
The dangérous condition brought about in the State of Oklahoma]
iy the lawless acts of the Ku Klux Klan is liable to-break out in |t
ny of the States of the North and West at any time. Why? e-
rause it was not crushed in the reconstruction days and was given |
1 new lease of life-by the late President Harding and the. Republican |*
majority in the Congress. |
THE LYNCHING OF THE JEW
EVEN years ago Leo M. Frank was accused of the murder of a
S factory girl fourteen years of age, at AUanta, and the nation
was stirred to fever heat by the sensational trial and convie-
tion of the factory manager and his lynching in the State prison. ‘The
Jews of the country exhausted all of the resources of thé law to sive
Frank from being railroaded by legal pricess and lynched by the in-
furiated mob sentiment of the State. noe /
The authorities of Georgia are now striving to locate a Negra 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 respon-
sibility 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 orboth 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 compariy all along that murderous highway. In this =
2 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 liké manner
for the trimes of white men. Innocent, though they were, it mat-
ered not. ‘They were lynched, burned and slaughtered.

NEGRO-HATING MAYOR
- WANTED KLAN SUPPORT
JOHNSTOWN, Pa. Sept. 27.—Deputy
Attorney General English was “hero
this week, Inventigating conditions
among the Mexicans and colored peo-
ple on the demand. of Governor Pin-
chot that -constitutional rights of all
people be safeguarded.
Investigation followed an .order by
Mayor CauMel that all colored people
and Mexicans not residents here more
than seven years feave at oncé
Following this demand protests from
all parts of the country flowed into hie
oMce Even the Mexican Government
took cognizance of fils action and in-
atructed dts counsel at Philadelphia to
make an investigation.
Under the stress of protests from
leading white and colored citizens of
Johnstown and vicinity, Mayo Caaf:
fiel finally declared:
“I have done nothing more than use
that power I have as mayor of this
city to protect white citizena and Ne-
groen, and I do not foar investigation
by the governor or anybody else.”
CauMol's order (Ne ndW' . claims
was merely @ request following a gun
battle in Rosedale a fow days ago when
two-policemen were shot dead and four
others seriously wounded.
It {3 nald that since Mayor Caumel
issued the “order” two weeks ago he
has sent more than 100 Negroes to the
county fail and about 2,000 Negroes and :
Mexicans have left Johnstown and
vicinity. All brought before him on
trivial offenses were fined $100.
CauMel was a candidate for the Re-
publican renomination last Tuesday at
the primary election and -ran a,poor
fourth with four men in the field tor
the nomination. He wan accused of
taking thesstand. against the Negroes
as “grandstand” play fn an effort to at-
tract klan support, ft ‘fs claimed, on
the eve of the election. x?
The mayor thin ‘week received a
message from J. S. Wanamaker, ‘pres-
{dent of the American Cotton Asso-
elation, offering to sco that: all legal
fees and fines of Negroes are paid and
offering work for them in the South,
where he sald their services are badly

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.

In recognition of their valuable services to the division the executive held a banquet in their honor on Friday, evening last. Twenty-five persons were present.

Several interesting and highly instructive papers were read, and among the contributors were Mr. Butler, Rev Stewart, Mr. Chambers, Mr. Ramsay, Mrs. Wheatley and Mr. Dashield.

The years the spiritual leader of the awakened,

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.
Certain Divisions and Chapters of Eastern Virginia have formed themselves into a union or league, known as, or to be known as the "Tidewater Union."
This union is looked upon with disfavor by the Parent Body, as it is contrary to the Constitution of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, therefore illegal.
All Divisions and Chapters constituting this union, or interested in same, are hereby WARNED and INSTRUCTED to withdraw both their membership from said illegal union, and use their influence to disband same forthwith.
Further, all other Divisions and Chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are also warned and instructed to disband all leagues and unions organized among themselves without written consent of the Parent Body forthwith, and are expected to attend, no such action, or to take no part in any such effort without the written consent of the Parent Body.

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,
BENJAMIN WALSH.

Moren Division No. 511 held a special demonstration in order to bid farewell to Mrs. Bone Dumman, an unpaid and loyal worker in the state of Africa. 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. Osborne, lady president, in which she paid worthy tribute to the work of Mrs. Rose Duncan in the local, and particularly the efficient manned, in which she carried out the duties of secretary to the Black Cross nurses.

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.

NEGRO WORLD
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
Japonesas
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.
