Universal Effort to Deceive Now more than ever, there seems to be a universal effort to deceive, exploit and then destroy the leaderless mass of the weak and unfortunate peoples of the world. While in the one breath the world's leading statesmen and leaders speak of the larger humanity, and the desire for peace, we find them in the other, selfishly working for the enthronement of their own peoples to the disadvantage of others. When one listens to the talk of David Lloyd George, or that of Clementeau in the one breath, we would be led to believe that in them is a deep sense of that human love that would make them advocates of that larger life that the Man Christ came to teach, yet following them a little further and studying them well, we find that the spoken word of these men is but a camouflage indulged in to side- wisely would claim for an equitable place in the affairs of life. The analyzed doctrine, or rather action of these men, is nothing else but racial and national selfishness; the glorification of themselves and their respective peoples, without any real consideration for the needs of suffering humanity. In our contact with such an attitude on the part of the world's great leaders, we also fall preys, to the great extent, through our professed leadership, to the camouflage, and for that we find some of the so-called leaders of our race indulging in a false security which, if followed by the mass of our people, will mean nothing else but our doom and destruction. It is for that that I take the stand to warn the four hundred million Negroes of the world of the peculiar situation, and if possible to inspire them to a hope of their own self reliance in evolving from among themselves a new kind of leadership that will not trust to the fine words and promises of others, but that will, with energy and effort on its own part, declare for the rights of the people without any compromise or without any apology. Dissatisfied With Leadership This suggests that we are dissatisfied with the present kind of leadership that we have. And why shouldn't we, when a proper study of it reveals to us that at the best our leaders are but selfish individuals who seek more the betterment of their own personal individual condition, rather than the condition of the mass of the people with whom they are supposed to be identified. The mistake we make as a race is to believe in the profession of anyone who says that "I am going to do this or going to do that," without putting the individual to the kind of a test that will really reveal the character of the man. It is so easy to assume leadership, but it is very hard to prosecute it in the interest of the people, acting always by the people as their rights demand. For leaders to help their MASSES SHOULD LOOK OUT FOR THEM- SELVES BY DEVELOPING THEIR OWN LEADERS BUILDING A NATION ONLY THING TO SAVE NEGROES UNITING THE SCATTERED MINORITIES INTO A GREAT MAJORITY WHOLE respective peoples and even advance them to the higher life in a materialism as that of the 20th century, means a ripping up of the barriers that surround, and a destroying of the fetters that seem to bind, and in the execution of this naturally there must be a conflict with that conservatism that has lived off and fed upon the suffering of the people who seek relief. For a leader therefore to take such a stand, he must naturally suffer by paying the price as all bold leaders have had to do in ages past, even now, and in the future. When we contemplate the histories of other peoples; the rise and fall of other races, we will naturally conclude that there is no other course for the Negro leader at this time, whilst the mass of the people are suffering, than that of sacrifice before the people can be lifted out of darkness into light. But how many of our leaders are prepared for such a sacrifice? That is the problem that confronts us within the race. To measure them by their words and their acts, we would conclude in no other language than that we are being deceived, that if we continue to place our reliance in those who profess to be our leaders, that we are deomed, doomed beyond redemption. Create New Environment: The effort of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is to create new environments, new opportunities for the race as it stands and the highest and best purpose we can serve, is that of creating a nation which will render to the race all the security that it needs. Against this the many leaders of the race do fight. They invariably tell us that to fight for our constitutional rights just where we are and nothing else will be the solution of the problem but who tells them that we should not fight for our constitutional rights wheresever we are? The Universal Negro Improvement Association does not say that. But we go beyond that; we say fight also to create a constitution of your own. For this we are regarded as dreamers, and in doing this we are regarded as being unfriendly to any other rights that the Negro should have. How unreasonable and how unwise? But what do we conclude from our observation, and from our study of those men who oppose the working of the Universal Negro Improvement Association? It is simply this, that they are all willing to follow the line of least resistance, that they are willing to utilize and monopolize the advantages created by the other race, without making the effort to create for themselves, not knowing and not realizing that such people will never yield up such advantages to those who were not fellow workers in the creation; and that is where the great Negro problem comes in, in countries where the Negro form a minority and other races form the majority, even though the assistance of the minority has been used in creating new civilizations and new opportunities, the majority shall always use the opportunities and take advantage of the situations of such civilizations to the disadvantage of the minority because in the reign of popular suffrage the majority will always vote to the interest of themselves, as against the interest of the minority. Therefore how hopeless it is for us to argue that by merely agitating for our constitutional rights, we will solve the problem of race. Agitating for Fifty Years We have been agitating in America for fifty years, and in the West Indies and other parts of the western world for eighty years. What have we gained but a perpetuation of the same problem that deprives us of our rights from the very beginning of this agitation. It is the realization of this hopelessness to ever get a square deal, where as a minority we are at the mercy of the will and caprice of the majority, why the Universal Negro Improvement Association seeks to unite the minority groups of Negroes all over the world such as in America, the West Indies, South and Central America, with the great majority of Africa, for the purpose of creating as a majority that kind of a security through nationhood that will give to us the privileges and the opportunities that we want. Opposing a Movement Sober, intelligent men cannot reason otherwise, and how these so-called leaders of the race oppose a movement like that of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is impossible to tell, except it is based upon the selfishness of seeing themselves removed from their present individual advantages in this life that deprives the mass of their needs, whilst giving to the few the crumbs that fall from the table. So long as one politician can be elevated here, and another there, and one leader can raise enough to enrich himself here, and another there, these people will always argue that the problem can be solved by agitation where we are. But what of the masses who are not getting anything to warrant their being satisfied? These are the people for whom the Universal Negro Improvement Association fights, and the few who selfishly think of themselves because of their own prosperity, are the ones who oppose the program that would seek to elevate the people to the higher life, the life of freedom and larger opportunities: Warning the Masses Therefore it is my duty to warn the masses of Negroes in America as well as the western world, that the time has come for them not to take their guidance from the selfish Negro who, in his own community is prospering, and can see no further than himself, but to evolve from among themselves as a common people, as a common mass, their own leadership, that will feel with them, that will think with them, and will not be afraid to suffer for the ideal of a higher and a nobler life for all the people. Relying on the salwart support of the masses, the Universal Negro Improvement Association comes forward with great hope, feeling sure that the future will tell a new tale, and will bring to the people a new knowledge of themselves. With very best wishes for your success. I have the honor to be. Your obedient servant. MARCUS GARVEY, President-General. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSN. New York, November 13, 1923. ON A TRIP FROM COAST TO COAST Seeing the Beauties of the Golden WestCatching Fish, Seeing Flowers and Observing Men The Tales of Hollywood and the Palaces of Pasadena, the Homes of Millionaires Who Made Their Money From Gum to Pork Dempsey's Spanish Retreat Far From Wills To the Editor of the Negro World: Although I have returned, home so many of my friends have asked me to continue my articles on my trip that I bow to their will. We reached Los Angeles on the morning of the 15th of October. At the station hundreds of colored people had gathered from 6:30 awaiting our coming, they fairly took charge of the station, and we were almost carried to the automobiles in their arms. The white people were amazed and had to stand aside until we were in our cars before they could come or go. I was amused to see a white newsboy waving his paper in the air and shouting, "Garvey in Town-G-A-R-V-E-E." Speaking in Los Angeles At 8:30 P. M. the local division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association held a big meeting at Rev. J. Brown's Baptist Church. The edifice was packed with people, who not only resided in Los Angeles, but had come from all the nearby sections. Journeying by trucks and automobiles to hear the program of the organization explained to them—the message of hope to a suffering, down-trodden people. Wealthy Negroes and poor Negroes were there. Old and young—even the crippled had to be wheeled on in chairs. Hundreds were content to stand in the aisle and at the doors. Such is the enthusiasm of Los Angeles for the Universal Negro Improvement Association—the cause of an emancipated Negro race, and a redeemed Africa. I will not attempt to report the meeting, as the secretary of the division sent in his report already, but I was very much impressed with the juveniles (boys and girls) from the Watts division, under the leadership of Mrs. W. A. Corbin. The little girls were all dressed in spotless white with furaces vells on their heads and black crosses on the fold of the vells that rested on their foreheads. Charming little tots and intelligent-looking, who were being trained at a tender age to be good citizens in the community in which they lived, and to be the future president, senators, congressmen, financial magnates, professionals and indices of the African republic to be. Los Angeles is the center of the activities of Southern California. It is built upon plains sloping seaward from the Sierra Madre foothills, from which ones can get the most inspiring views of the beautiful city. Its surroundings and the ocean in the distance. This section is noted for its wonderful bungalows and fine homes, like Sacramento, but on a larger and more elaborate scale. At this season of the year I found the climate warm in the day, but cool early in the morning and at night. The driving roads are perfectly smooth, and it is a pleasure to go gliding along in an auto. Buying Homes Everyone is home-or crazy here. Every family conversation drifts into the purchase of a home in some newly-opened district. Hope this is a lucrative field for real estate sharks, and this may be the reason of Chandler Owen, the Socialist, resorting to the real estate business in Los Angeles, as announced. The garage is an important to a home as the kitchen. I suppose because gasoline is only 12 cents per gallon (including war tax) and the question of garage rent is eliminated, why the uplift of an automobile is at the minimum, and everybody owns a car-from GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS Recommends Daily Use of Magnesium to Overcome Trouble Caused by Fermenting Food and Acid Indigestion Gas and wind in the stomach accompanied by that full, bloated feeling after eating. It is important of the presence of excessive hydrochloric acid in the stomach, creating so-called "acid indigestion." Acid stomachs are dangerous because too much acid irritates the delicate lining of the stomach, leading to gastritis accompanied by serious stomach ulcers. Food ferments and tours, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach and humps the normal functions of the vital internal organs, often affecting the heart. It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or to treat with ordinary digestive aids which are not necessary. It is better to stomach acids. Instead get from any drugist a few sources of Blurred Magnesium and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eat. It is better to swallow the blight right out of the body, sweden the stomach, neutralize the excess acid and prevent its formation and there is no necessity or pain.

The real estate men do a big business. Land that used to sell at $35 per lot on terms of $1 down and $1 per week, can't be bought for $300 cash today. These real estate men are regular hustlers. They set up a little three by four office on the lots for sale and have agents, who halt passing automobiles and induce passengers to buy their lots. In addition to this, they build bungalows in all the styles known to architects on the lots and put catty advertisements in the newspapers that are bound to attract the attention of home-seekers. Herewith is an example. Who would not fall for it? 45,000 NEGROES IN LOS ANGELES 19,500 NEIGHBORS IN EUG ANGELS "The population is comprised of many nationalities and races, besides native born, of which there are about 45,000 to 50,000 Negroes. The Negro population has increased considerably within the last year, due to the fact that Negroes with a little money leave the South and even the Middle West, and settle there." The Negroes do all kinds of work for a living. Of course keeping within the limited prescript for him by the white man who is ever watchful, ever on guard, saying "Nigger, thus far shall thou rise and no further." Friends: Members of my race, I would not advise you has some of the "big Negroes" have done) to try and break down those barriers, or to pray and hope for a brighter day—a day when that same white man will voluntarily let down the barriers, because to resist the white man in this country is like a bird beating. Its head against the bars of the cage in order to get freedom. It is hopeless to obtain industrial, economic and political freedom in this manner, when we are in the minority and the white majority rules without mercy. And as for praying and hoping that the white man will have a chance of heart, and as a Christian say "Welcome, brother," why, thatz a joke. As I write this article, I have before me on my desk a Washington newspaper, in which appears a news article about the Christian white man. And what is it? You would never guess in a hundred guesses. So here it is: Police Halt Crowd Demanding Colored Citizens Quit Home "Onward, Christian Soldiers" Sung by "Protectors" of "White Neigh- This incident did not happen in the South, but in Washington, the capital city of these United States of America, the sea of government, a civilized, Christian, white mob. Think of it! and our "leaders" tell us of a better day coming for Negroes in America, Men and women! Let us not knock our heade to smithereens against this high thick wall of "white supremacy." Let us not kick our heels against the pricks and hurt ourselves, but it us turn our eyes in the other direction and look toward Mother Africa, where we will be able to rise to the heights of true manhood and womanhood and live in happiness and prosperity with our brothers and sisters over there. To return to my subject, let me say that I spent six days in California and had a delightful time, enjoying the warmth of the climate and the warm hearts of the people. Mrs. Bertha Wilson entertained us in her home at Harvard Boulevard, and Miss Hogue, one of the Black Cross Nurses of the division, gave up her job to help her take care of us; also the lady president of the division helped them. So you see we African habitats were well looked after in the City of the Angels (Los Angeles). Seeing the Life of a Great City I had many delightful walks and rides. One that I small long remember was a drive through Laughlin Park in the evening. The sun had set but yet it was light; the perfume of thousands of flowers hung heavy in the air; the birds had ceased their twitter and gone THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1923 King Tut Held Israelites Mr. Arthur Weigall, famus Egyptologist and former inspector-general of antiquities in Egypt, says: "King Tut-ankh-Amen was the Pharaoh of Exodus. He was the ruler of Egypt who hardened his heart against Moses and the children of Israel, for which he was visited by the plagues. It was King Tut-ankh-Amen, not Ramesses II, as tradition holds, who kept the Israelites in bondage and played the leading part in one of the greatest and most moving dramas in the world." Mr. Weigall was present at the opening of King Tut-ankh-Amen's tomb and is considered one of the greatest authorities on that period in the world. to rest. The air was calm and still; and as our lone car followed the serpentine road winding through this billy park, nature seemed prepared for the majesty of night to spread her pull-like wings and envelope all. Slowly and steadily we followed the path, until we reached the summit. Night had come. And behold! Streethed out before me lay the city, the illumination of which appeared to me like stars twinkling from behind 'finky clouds.' I fell into a recove as I thought of the thousands of souls living and working together in that city, of their hopes and aspirations; of their strife and quarrels; of their sufferings and woes; of all the good and all that 'make up this eternal struggle for existence, and as I thought I prayed "Almighty Father, Then, in Thy infinite wisdom, knowest best, Help, Oh, help us" The dew was fallen and dampened my clothes, but I reentered the car, removed and refreshed in spirit, one of the struggles in the eternal maze of life. The anti-Japanese feeling has subsided somewhat since the terrible catastrophe in Japan. I do not believe this has come about because of any real sympathy of the whites towards the Japanese, but due to the fact that the Americans are the greatest bidders for re-reconstruction work in Japan and most of the material used in such work is imported from America. So these sharp business men are smart enough to let their people know that they must not at this particular time do anything that would hurt the feeling of the yellow men in this country, as the stream of yellow gold may stop flowing from Japan to America and be diverted somewhere else. There are about 10,000 Japanese in California. They have three daily newsletters in Los Angeles, printed in English and Japanese. Also two banks. One of the places of interest that I visited was Eagle Rock—a large boulder jutting out from the side of the hill, on which is perched a huge cross. I learned that early Easter Sunday morning this cross is illuminated and thousands of people gather on this hill to take part in the divine service, which is conducted in the regular way, with the help of an organ and a choir. I understand it is very impressive as it is cabled in the morning so many people of people shimply lit in the open air. The residential section around is called Eagle Rock. Los Angeles boasts of a number of nighbouring cities and town that enhance her commercial importance. Among them are Hollywood and Lasdens. They are so compact that a stranger can hardly tell when he crosses the boundary. 'Where the Millionaires Live' Pasadena is charmingly situated in the San Diego valley. It is the famous residential center for rich people; one can ride for over an hour and view the spider and luxury of the palace occupied by white people who revel in all the comforts that this western civilization affords. 'One of the most picturesque boulevards is nicknamed "Millionaires Row," bordered by trees, whose branches interlap overhead. I saw the prominent home of Wrigley the man who made his millions out of chewing gum. Think of it. RIOT SENTENCE TO BE COMMUTED LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Governor T. C. McLate announced that he will commute to twelve years' imprisonment the sentences of six Elaine Noyes who for four years have been held at the State prison, awaiting execution and whose sentences of death have been confirmed by the State Supreme Court. The six are: Edward and Frank Hicks, Frank Moore, J. E. Knox, Edward Coleman and Paul Hall, who with six other Negroes were convicted November 3, 1919, of murder in connection with riots at Elaine, Phillips county, in which four white men and an unknown number of Negroes were killed, and which resulted in calling out for duty a force of regular troops then stationed at Camp Tikke here. The other six were freed last June. When a statute of limitations was invoked by their attorneys. The case attracted nation-wide attention. Clemency in behalf of the six still held was requested in a petition from Phillips county, bearing the names of leaders in the community, including the committee which investigated the outbreak. Mr. Villard Accused of Soft Pedaling on Voting and Hard Pedaling on Drinking—White Friends Blow Hot and Cold (From the Washington Tribune.) Like a cow that gives a pall of good milk and then kicks it over, so "The Nation," in its current issue, printed an excellent article by William Hard, on "White, Protestant, and Dry," in which he points out the inconsistency of the present stir to enforce the Eighteenth amendment on the ground that it must be enforced because "it is hay," when, as he says everybody knows that in many states the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments are dead letters. But on its editorial page, it "kicks the milk over" by soft pedaling Mr. Hard's article in these words: "This plea is a fine one and we agree with him, but we must admit that there is a degree of actual overt, dishonesty and corruption in the liquor situation that is not involved in these old sores. [the failure to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments]. In any case we can hardly object to the enforcement of a law simply because other laws are not enforced." First we wish to state that Oswald Garrison Villard, the editor of The Nation, is a vice-president of The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The editor in "The Nation" appointing for Mr. Harp's appeal for the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments as well as the Eighteenth is characterizing the white members of the N. A. A. C. P. They are ever blowing hot and cold. The N. A. A. C. P. pretends to champion the Dyer anti-lynching bill, and yet a white vice-president of the association in an editorial of his nationally circulated weekly states that it is not as important to enforce the enfranchisement amendment to the Constitution as the liquor amendment. Oswald Garrison Villard and the whites associated with him in the N. A. A. C. P. think that all Negroes are guilful and will fall for anything that white "friends" propose. Therefore they "endorse" an anti-lynching bill as the host bait for revenue raising for the N. A. A. C. P., when they know full well that the enforcing of anti-lynching law would be left to the same hands as is the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments. If the Southern Ka Kluxers will not permit the great Government of the United States to enforce its Constitutional amendments, how can, Mr. Villard figure that the Ka Kluxes are going to permit the enforcement of a law that will deprive them of much of their pastime-whipping, tattoo and lynching. Mr. Hard does not object to the enforcement of the Eighteenth amendment on the ground that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth are not enforced. But he says: "Many Negro inhabitants of Washington, however, think that the numbers fourteen and fifteen come before the number eighteen, and while it may be a very good thing to have a special Federal department for enforcing the Eighteenth amendment regarding prohibition, it would also be an equally good thing to have a special Federal department for enforcing the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments regarding particularly Nero software." And he also says: "In any case they see no reason why their constitutional amendments, which have been law for more than half a century, should not have a special Federal enforcement department if such a department is to be granted to a favorite constitutional amendment which has been law for less than half a decade." There is certainly not anything in our statements as to those apologies for or soft palate, as the editorial referred to does. Instead of an apology, Mr. Herd's appeal should be endorsed. Just as the "Citizenship Conference" sponsored by the National Council of Churches failed to ask for full law enforcement but centered on the Volunteer law, Villard and his group of the N. A. A. C. P. have shifted from the enforcement of the real for the imaginary. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the sacred Constitution $\textcircled{2}$ the United States are real. The proposed Dyer bill is only imaginary and will never be any service nor bring any relief to the oppressed Negroes of the South. The Federated Council of churches at its Citizenship Conference here played the hypocrite and Oswald Garrison Villard, a vice-president of the N. A. A. C. P., is endorsing its action in his weekly, "The Nation." Stops COLDS LaGrippe Influenza Pneumonia Keep strong. Be healthy and free from winter complaints.

(2-30) SIDELIGHTS ON BLACK AND WHITE CONFERENCES IN SOUTH AFRICA Prof. James Thaill, B. A., contributed the following article on "Garvey and Garveyism" to the "Africa Voice," published at Cape Town, South Africa, September 22: Among the combinations and permutations that go to make up the kaleidoscope of human history, Marcus Garvey, the potentate of the Universal Improvement Association, will indeed remain a shining constellation. His is a movement, the success of which has started the world. It is therefore but plain that as a master-psychologist he has been able to interpell the yearning wants and racial aspirations of the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world to the tune of African Redemption—the land of their forefathers. Can a message that comes from Tombs Prison, New York, to the 400,000,000 of his kin and kith scattered throughout the universe fail to have an abiding faith among his followers? This is indeed not possible. The twentieth century Negro spiritually and philosophically is a new Negro. His conclusions, which are seasoned by time and experience, are philosophical rather than spasmodic. He has stopped the tomfoolery business of pussy-footing and stalking about himself, and he is now up in the doing; he has read the lessons and calculated the cost of martyrological history; he has learned from history that Japan has solved the seemingly and inescapable race problem by developing a greater Japan; he has read and he is reading with unusual interest the mably stand of Eamon De Valera, as well as the Silamant stand of Mustapha Kemal Pasha. It is therefore feasible that he (the twentieth century Negro) should raise this race problem by developing a Greater Africa. He has taken as his corollary in doing this "that he, likewise, should change his tactics by becoming a Mirabeau, a Napoleon, a Toussaint P'ouverture of his race." There can be no doubt that a message like the following from Tombs Prison in pregnant with thoughts and a great deal of truth in it. It, indeed, offers a fruitful thought to the thinking educated black men everywhere to rally to the standard of the "U. N. F. A." Note the message: "The wonderful force of organization is making itself felt in every branch of human effort. Whether in industry, society, politics or war, it's the force of organization that tells; hence I can advise no better step toward racial salvation than organization among us." "No human apologies are needed for the moving or going forward of any people, so none will expect that we will apologize for the efforts we are making to unite our race the world over, and the creating for ourselves of a political superstate where we will find the representative and protection that will make us secure in the seismic adjustment of a material world." Fuss and Hypocrisy Time reads the portpouss message (Continued on page 1) (From the Johannesburg International) The proceedings of the Government Conference with natives hold at Pretoria this week resemble, as we predicted they would, the recent conference between Sir Wim. Joy not to mention General Simuits at Irene) and certain railwaymen. Affecting, of course, a far greater body of people, this conference is just another "Negotiation" preparatory to a further tightening of chains, the object being to talk over the representatives and then say: "See, we have obtained the consent of the people concerned." It is difficult from newspaper reports to ascertain exactly how far this process has gone, but it looks as if certain leaders had already been persuaded, for one thing, to approve the introduction of pass or registration provisions from which Cape natives have hitherto been free, by the empty argument that uniformity all over South Africa is desirable. It is not altogether the fault of the natives that they have not yet learned what opposition, and especially organized working class opposition, really means; for those who do know have hitherto left them entirely to government and pro-government (i.e., capitalist) agencies like the churches, which have used and are using their opportunities to -the full- No wonder the conference thanks the government for "allowing" it to discuss its own affairs; labor has not even done that. Once more, the white labor organizations must realize their duties and opportunities before it is too late.

C., Nov. 7.—A thousand white men and women assembled at 6:45 o'clock last night at First and U streets northwest and marched to the homes of Negro property owners with an "ultimatum" that they vacate their homes. The police reserves of the Eighth Precinct, led by Captain C. Plemmons, were called to disperse the crowd, which scattered without protest. The action of the men and women of the Bloomingdale section followed the adoption by the North Washington Citizens' Association of a resolution at a special meeting Monday night in the United Brethren Church, North Capitol and R streets northwest, calling for a demonstration. Henry Gilligan, chairman of the housing committee of the North Washington Citizens' Association, was selected as spokesman. Those in charge of the demonstration included Robert M. Yost, president of the Citizens' Association; Guy Numbers, secretary, and Philip Grumbrecht, treasurer of the association. Warned Against Violence Mr. Gilligan outlined also purpose of the meeting. He admonished the crowd to be "level-headed," not to threaten and, under no circumstances to resort to violence. While the crowd was assembling more than 200 automobiles gathered. The crowd first went to the home of William F. Clark, 143 U street northwest, at the crier of Plagler place. Mr. Gilligan and his committee mounted the steps and in response to their ring for admission the door was answered by a woman. Before the spokesman could hand her the printed ultimatum a news photographer, taking a flashlight picture, threw a scare into the crowd when the powder exploded. The door of the Clark home was quickly closed. The crowd then went to the home of Dr. D. W. Woodward, a Howard University professor, at Flagler place and W street. Dr. Woodward answered the door and was handed the "ultimatum." Mr. Gilligan requested it be read then. The crowd had surged up and surrounding the house. Dr. Woodward read the "ultimatum," but made no comment. An occupant of the home drove up in an automobile and was halted and questioned by the crowd. Hymn, Sung by Marchera Then the crowd, singing, "Onward, Christian Soldiers," marched to the home of Lawrence Prince, a Pullman porter, living just around the corner on Plagier place. After the door bell was rung without a response being received, someone noticed a light in the house and several climbed to the front windows and rattled the glass. "the native problem" in the country. It seems that no representative of labor organizations as such, still less of labor political parties (other parties can get in by a side wind) is being admitted, although the working class is very vitally interested—a position which would be reverted and combatted if we were more wide awake. Similarly the Johannesburg Joint Council of Europeans and natives, though it includes a "Tpoo," has refused to admit the secretary of the Communist party, for reasons which need no exposition. Workers, white and black wake up and hold a European and native conference of your own! Prince finally came to the door. He too, was served with the "ultimatum." It was while the crowd was staging the demonstration in front of the Prince home that a riot called was sent in to the Eighth precinct. The arrival of the auto patrol filled with policemen was met with cheers and handclapping, especially by the women and girls in the crowd. Captain Plemmons sought out the leaders of the movement and told them that the crowd must disperse. Chairman Gilligan told him the purposes of the demonstrations, but Captain Plemmons ordered his men to clear the streets, and told the men and women to return to their homes. It was learned last night that the demonstrations were the aftermath of the purchase of a home by Dr. Woodward two months ago and the buying of a home by William Clark a week later. Prince moved into his house yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Following the purchase of the house by Dr. Woodward, residents of the neighborhood called on him and requested him to move. Policemen of the Eighth precinct were detailed in the house to prevent trouble. The "ultimatum" presented last night read: "These men and women here the property owners of Bloomingdale, and they want you to know they resent the limit your purchase of the property in this section, and particularly your moving into the property. You may not have known that you were laying property in a white neighborhood, but, whether you knew this or not, you did buy, and we want you to know that we expect you to vacate these premises. We will help you find a purchaser for the property and will co-operate with you, in any and every possible it you will indicate to us that you will do the wise and courageous thing—move out." They Heard Marcus Garvey In Oakland. and Frisco The citizens of Oakland, were given an opportunity last Monday evening, and the citizens of San Francisco, last Wednesday evening, to hear Marcel Garvey, the most talked of Negro in the world. And it mattered not whether they liked Garvey or not, even his bitterest enemies, who forced to admit that Garvey is a man of unusual mental endowment. Garvey delivered two able addresses. They breathed the spirit of the new Negro. And as Garvey told of the hopes and aspirations of the race his measure caught, the ears of the attentive audience, whose heart beat in perfect accord with him. The Uncle Tom element were conspicuous by their presence, and that all who were well present belong to the Uncle Tom bunch. But it does not mean that many of our so-called leaders, better known as bleachers, were complained by their absence. Yet men and women in every walk of life were in attendance and gave him a full measure of their support. Garvey came with a message to red-blooded man and the message was received in the spirit given. An able and fearless exponent of the principles of empire building, he held his audience and gripped their attention from start to finish. There was not much humor in his remarks, yet at times he had his audience enveloped with laughter. But in the main, he dealt with the serious question of welding a race. He dispelled the fear of those who believed that he planned to depopulate America by taking the American Negro to Africa, but he urged that the American Negros do what they could to aid in the redemption of Africa. The lecture was well received and made a lasting impression upon his hearers.

Hahdur Spru, speaking for the East Indians, whiche Indians are loyal subjects of the King and claim other subjects, said: "I fight as a subject of King for a place in the household and I will not be placed in the stables." That was said bravely and, but General Smuts told him very bluntly that he content with "a place in the stables," not only at home, but in South and East Africa as well. Smuts not to press the matter too far. Generally, this reply, which covered Africans as well as East Africa is still greater. We have a majority of blacks in South Africa, and if there is to be equal manhood sufficiency the whites would be swamped by the blacks. We have a distinction between Indians and Africans and you and by an invisitable force of logic to go the whole hog would be that not only would the whites be swamped but all over Africa by the blacks, and the whole positive have striven for 200 years or more now would be South Africa is concerned. Therefore, the question is and his colleagues say quite rightly for India that this dignity.

THE Daily Chronicle of Georgetown, Demerara, of October 11, carries a long leading article on "Marcus Garvey," in which it says he gets more space in the newspapers of the world than "prime ministers and statesmen, and even sovereigns of many a European nation," which, in itself, "is no mean achievement, and indicates a capacity to command attention which may be taken is a measure, or proof, of some degree of greatness. To get upon the front page of the New York World, to the exclusion of the news of the world, may be said to be about as difficult as to get upon some thrones." In concluding its editorial the Daily Chronicle says that, when all extraneous matter shall be dissipated by time and the march of events, "the Negro will come into his place in the sun throughout all the world; but the name of Garvey will not be forgotten, nor will it ever be thought that he lived in vain." A man who has made a record which warrants such a conclusion as the Georgetown Daily Chronicle has reached, while still young in years, and while very much alive and on the firing line, can afford to go on without faltering to higher and better things in his own life and the life of the Negro people of the world. The Negro people are entitled to a place in the sun, and they have begun to fight for it, and they will have it. GENERAL SMUTS SAYS ALL BRITISH SUBJECTS ARE NOT EQUAL LORD MANSFIELD once laid down the dictum that "No man can breathe the free air of England and remain a slave." But that was long ago, and much water has gone over the British dam since. Indeed, British citizenship has since undergone many changes, in the home country and in the colonies. These changes have been coincident with the growth of British colonies, culminating in the pronouncement in a recent meeting of the Dominion premiers; of the death of the British Empire and the birth of the British Commonwealth of Nations. General Smuts, the brutal premier of the Union of South Africa, recently, in discussing the status of the East Indians, declared bluntly that all subjects of the British Crown are not equal, that is, upon equality. Sir T. E. J. Bahdur Spru, speaking for the East Indians, while affirming that the Indians are loyal subjects of the King and claimed equality with other subjects, said: "I fight as a subject of King George, but I fight for a place in the household and I will not be content with a place in the stables." That was said bravely and manfully enough, but General Smuts told him very bluntly that he would have to be content with "a place in the stables," not only so in the East Indies, at home, but in South and East Africa as well. He warned General Smuts not to press the matter too far. General Smuts made him this reply, which covered Africans as well as East Indians: "But our difficulty is still greater. We have a majority of blacks in the Union of South Africa, and if there is to be equal manhood suffrage all over the union the whites would be swamped by the blacks. You cannot make a distinction between Indians and Africans and you would be impelled by an inevitable force of logic to go the whole hog and the result would be that not only would the whites be swamped by the Indians, but all over Africa by the blacks, and the whole position for which we have striven for 200 years or more now would be gone so far as South Africa is concerned. Therefore, the question is impossible. "Sir Badhur and his colleagues say quite rightly for India that this is a question of dignity. For white Africa it is not a question of dignity, but a question of existence, and no government could for a moment ever tamper with that position or do anything to meet the Indian point of view." The black and off-color people, subjects of Great Britain, in the West Indies, Africa, East India and Australia, are told bluntly that there is no equality of citizenship for them in the British Commonwealth of Nations, and that if they want it they must fight for it. They will fight. They are now protesting. The Cape Indian for September says: "Of all the nations of the earth South Africa is extremely soaked in racial prejudice. The only voice that counts is of white Christendom, and the only one who can have any choice is the South African European." The African newspapers on our exchange list are all protesting against British misrule and arrogance and robbery of the political and economic rights of the natives, and when you have the protest against misrule once going it will fetch up somewhere with a smash the oppressors will respect if they do not appreciate. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has aroused the sleeping Negro people everywhere, and nowhere more than in Africa itself, and having been aroused they can never again be put to sleep. White Europe has challenged the manhood, the self-respect, the inherent power, of the black and off-color people of the world, and they are accepting the challenge all along the line. African redemption and a square deal for Africans in all lands where they are scattered as denizens, citizens or strangers within the gate, has gripped the black and off-color people of the world as never before, and they are bound to get larger freedom, juster economic benefits and greater respect of those who imagine that might make right out of the conflict. Each black person must consider himself a soldier in the place where he is, of whom a soldier's work is expected.

WHAT WE HAVE TO BE THANKFUL FOR THE President of the United States has set aside Thursday, November 29, as a Day of Thanksgiving. What have we to be thankful for, we Negroes of the United States and of the world? The question appeals to the individual member and to the race as a whole. The question calls for self-examination and for race examination. Specifically, and without going into details, we are thankful that we have the Universal Negro Improvement Association, with Marcus Garvey as its leader, as the gathering point of the Negro people of the world in their struggle for social, civil and economic justice and fair play everywhere, and we are thankful that Negro people everywhere are waking up to the fact that they "also are a people," that they have a Continent which the white races should not be allowed to push them off, and that they have equal rights with other race groups of nations of which they may be citizens or subjects and for which they fight and for the maintenance of which they are taxed equally with others. We are thankful that Negro people everywhere are looking to the future and not to the past and are beginning to do for themselves the vital things which they have been expecting others to do for them. We are thankful that "we are living, we are moving, in a grand and awful time" that tries men's souls, and that we feel the urge, the compelling impulse, to a higher and better life in the "grand and awful time" in which we live. THE SOUTH AS THE STINK HOLE OF AMERICA It is not often that we find in any newspaper or periodical of the times a square-toed characterization of the Southern States and the white people who have made a hell of the choicest section of the country. Merchants want Southern trade and politicians want Southern votes and churchmen are afraid to "give offense" by speaking out and sparing not, because they must have plenty of money for the general work of the churches and there are high-honors to be gained by the diplomacy of subtlety and the cowardice of side-stepping and dodging. Whoever, therefore, handles the stylographic brush gives a word picture of the South, its conditions and the character of its people, in which the imagination riots the falschools of mirages. Mr. T. N. Thomas, writing to the New York World from Louisville, Ky., discussing conditions in Oklahoma, that No Man's Land of lawlessness, as presented by Mr. Hand, a staff correspondent, approaches the South from an entirely new, if not original, angle. Mr. Thomas is an ex-service man and served overseas, and he is a Catholic. He says he is affected with nausea every time he reads any of the mouthings of the 100-percenters. Who is not? He admits that "nine of every ten people you meet in Oklahoma, and the South, are American born," but is sure "many of these same people have little else to recommend them." Ain't it the truth! Mr. Thomas then goes on to tell us some truths which are good to read and should help us all to understand the Southern stink hole situation better than most of us do. He says: As one New Yorker who has traveled extensively through the entire South, even as far West as the teaming metropolises of Tulsa, Oklahoma City, Muskogee, Sapulpa and Claremore, I have learned much that I never dreamed before. The South of romance and chivalry is a myth. The delights of Southern cooking are a myth. The South of ignorance, illiteracy, lawlessness (and not the lawlessness of a professionally criminal class, but the lawlessness of the "best citizens"), of intolerance of every kind is a fact. New Yorkers may be associating with Negroes in many places and Oklahoma may be slow to follow, as Mr. Smith tells us, but it is a networthy fact that mulattoes do not grow on trees and there are ever so many mulattoes in Dixie. I am American born, an ex-service man who saw service overseas with the Twenty-seventh Division during the war and also on the border before the war, but I cannot qualify as a 100 per cent. American for, also, I am a Catholic. How much worthier to have been a 100-percenter and have stayed home! Who could draw a stronger and more truthful picture of the south? A lawless aggregation of States ruled by a lawless aggregation of people, white people, all of whom are expected to go armed, and be ready to shoot upon least provocation, and to go unwhipped of justice if the victim be a Negro, a Jew or a Catholic, where government is based upon insurrection and ruled by force and fraud; where a large part of the citizenship is taxed without representation and receives but a beggar's share of the benefits of taxation; where the worker is promised the smallest wage and robbed often of most of what he earns without any redress in law and is shot down as if he were a ferocious beast if he demand his just wage; where every person walks abroad by day with the fear of trouble of some sort coming upon him and goes to bed expecting always that the worst may happen to him and his possessions between suns—that is the sort of hell, the Southern white 100-percenters have made for themselves and all of the other groups of their citizenship. Will such a condition of government as the whites of the South have made for themselves, and the other groups of the citizenship survive? How can it? Already they have begun to rob and flog and murder each other; already the better sort of whites are beginning to protest and to act to do away with it; already the Negro people have begun to protest and fight back and to leave the South by thousands. The spirit of protest has been aroused in the South and it will not be satisfied until decent government has been established and law and order are made the rule and not the exception. is touring many cities in song.

In these narratives we have repeatedly referred to President Coolidge's wonderful economy of speech. Now; the widest acres are saying that this remarkable faculty has advanced him toward a full term in the White House. In politics as in war, the element of surprise is the greatest contributing agency to victory, and it is becoming beloved that the silent man at the helm of the government must have required his lesson by heart. "Rendering unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's," has been modernized by cautious Mr. Coolidge to permit the triangular branches of the government to function in a constitutional way, and neither Democratic guru nor Republican anxiety has been sufficient to "smoke him out" from his old-trained adherence to the principles of co-ordinate courtesy in administrative affairs. Mr. Coolidge is running the executive branch of the greatest insult on earth, which is in itself a big job, and he is attending to it strictly. But the stage is being set for a most interesting drama which begins next month, when the statemanic solos gather on the hill, and it is being confidentially predicted that the President will hold his own in the matter of preferential advantage on account of his inherent predisposition to Americanism. There is a continental axiom that reflects the New England Americanism, the one which Senator Brookhart messed up so laughably in the closing hours of the last session of Congress: "Where the Lowells speak only to Cathols and the Catholics speak only to God," or something like that. Anyhow, this seems to be paraphrased in the new order of things that the people speak to Coolidge and Coolidge speaks to—well—he just nods comprehension and doesn't speak to any god, until it is time to speak. Everybody has despaired of "smoking him out." Thanks! He doesn't smoke. But those who are enjoying close contact with this conscious worker say he has a grasp on the big problems that is almost uneasy. When everybody else is confused he shows in a word or two the way out. From this sensible silence the colored people see nothing but assurances of a square deal. They will not expect a fuller hand than is given other American citizens, but they believe that as far as is humanly possible they will receive a square deal from the White House. The President doesn't appear to be saying it; but he is not saying anything. He acts! There is an atmosphere that surrounds him which seems to assure fairness and interest. No one will gainay that there is a sinuous winter ahead of the President, Congress, the party, and the people; but with the prime leadership reverting to old-fashioned Americanism, as Mr. Coolidge is doing, a feeling of confidence prevails, like that of our ancestors, who sang for "The Old-time Religion." By brining the public conscience back to the ways our fathers tried, simple though they were, the President is doing a great service for the perseverity of real Americanism. Coolidge has the silent determination of General Grant; the simplicity of Jexcerson and the humanity of Lincoln.

Egyptian Research in Religion (By the Associated Neuro Press) (By the Associated Negro Press) CHICAGO, IL. Nov. 5—Desire to know what might have been the ancient religious beliefs of Egypt has led the Oriental institute of the University of Chicago to send an expedition to the "Queen of the Nile" to study micrographies found inscribed on the inner surfaces of the sides and tops of the collins of the Egyptian female era. The texts contain the religious beliefs prevalent in Egypt at 2,000 B. C. The expedition is to be under the direction of Prof. James Henry Breasted, chairman of the department of Oriental languages at the University and director of the Oriental institute. Prof. Breasted was present when the excavations around Tut-ankh-Amen's tomb were made last year. THE PASSING SHOW By JOHN EDWARD BRUCE Some thirty-old years ago I wrote and taught to F. G. Berridge, formerly of California, and at that time a citizen of Washington, the following notification of the election of delegates and alternates to the convention of the American Citizens' Equal Rights League at Cincinnati, Ohio, May 4, 1991, which was going to revolutionise things in this convention and bring on the millennium for which we have all been waiting and praying. "Dear Sir: I have the honor to inform you that at a meeting of the American Citizens' Equal Rights League, held on the 13th inst., at 328 Pennsylvania avenue, the following named gentlemen were duly elected delegates and alternates to represent the District of Columbia at the forthcoming convention of the American Citizens' Equal Rights League at Cincinnati, Ohio May 4, 1891: John F. Cook, John S. Gray, John H. Smythe, T. G. Steward, Alternates, W. H. Smith, Ex-Lieut. Gov. R. H. Gleaves, Perry H. Carson, A. G. Davis. Very respectfully, John E. Bruce, secretary." Well, the convention assembled as per schedule, resolved, speeched and adjourned, leaving the Negro question exactly where it was before the bombardment. This has been the result of all the fox-fire conventions, conferences, etc., called by the Negro since the Civil War. At these gatherings the learned and wordy have filled the chrysanthemum air with eloquence and noise and the folks back home have had the honor, if not always the pleasure of saying the score. This is 1923 and the condition of the Negro, politically, socially and economically, is worse today than it was thirty-odd years ago. There is no way for a convention of Negroes to enforce any demands made in convention against the powers that be for a change of the conditions that have hampered and oppressed us as Colossus since the close of the Civil War. All that we have been able to do is to talk about them and make faces at the administration in power and velled threats of reprisal in state and national elections, with young too much certainty of unanimous action in the matter of reprisal for the average Negro is none too firm a believer in mass action, especially when the gold of the enemy is freshly minted or slightly used and the greenbacks are crisp and of large denominations. are crisp and of large denominations.

NOTES OF OPINION BY RACE EDITORS The measure of every colored man's value in the elevation of his people is the consistency he displays in appreciating the concrete efforts of his people to become independent in business, independent in thought and independent in action.—Portland Advocate. Mark the preacher who is always trying to get an amen to his platitudes about heaven. He never tells you how to fit your Christian profession to the earning of a better living here. He never tells the worker that honesty, industry, integrity, persistence, theft, and the other every-day duties are part of his Christian equipment. He dwells on song and prayer, and leaves out work. Worst of all, he deceives himself by thinking he has done his duty. If we could utter one prayer that would embrace the one big need of our race, it would be "Lord, as ministers, give us men!"—Kansas City Call. It is a very difficult matter to make people do by law what they don't want to do, and a very large number of people want a more liberal construction of the prohibition amendment than is to be found in the Volstead act. We believe in prohibition, and fought to make it possible, but if a large body of the citizenship don't want it and defy successfully efforts to force it upon them—there you are. The reconstruction policy failed of enforcement in the Southern States more than fifty years ago because of the same rebellious spirit which is making Federal prohibition a failure. History is always repeating itself—Norfolk Journal and Guide. That Henry Ford would receive the support of many colored voters throughout that part of the country where they are permitted to exercise their constitutional right of franchise goes without saying, this applies in a large measure to the younger element of our group and those who Waiting, Micawber-Like, For Something to Turn Up Our race will be accursed as long as we must depend on the other races to open employment for our sons and daughters. There is enough wealth in Los Angeles among the Negroes to take care of the present labor problem. Millions of dollars of Negros' money lies idle in the big banks and the white man is using it to build big cities, and industries where he can employ his children while we just go along and are content with the mop and the bucket. Some of us have the nerve to get angry because the white man won't give our sons and daughters a place in these institutions. You might as well quit resolutely and stump-speeching and do something worth while. You are not going to get any, consideration until you organize big industries where the bulk of the race folk can find employment. Forty-five thousand Negroes in any city can make their own way, and there will be no race problem then. If these forty-five thousand Negroes would pool just one dollar a month toward an enterprise we could build dozens of factories and not miss the money invested. Let some one with the vision make the attempt and let all of us fall in line. "There is no miscera without great effort." Negro conventions and conferences called to influence existing white public sentiment toward us. Hitherto white political managers, when threatening situations, have arisen have been able to go into executive session with some of our convention promoters and leaders and iron out the differences so smoothly that none have seemed to exist. Having watched Negro conventions for over forty years I don't see much danger in those promised to add to the gayety of nations and to the fund of experience of their promoters. A minority race must steal its way to place and power without the use of a brass band and great swelling words which it has not yet been able to make good and cannot make good because it is not able. We are unconscious fokers. We overestimate the quantity of water we draw in this republic and seem to be unable to distinguish the difference between rights and privileges. One is inherent, the other is a grant which may be withdrawn or denied at the will and pleasure of the grantor. This to me appears to be about the situation which the Negro in 1923 occupies. Jan Smuts, who like Rudyard Kipling in verse, expresses the inward feelings of the dominant face, has recently given expression to a few thoughts which will be indorsed by the entire white world. You have read them. Academic discussion in opposition to them will not alter the belief among the white races that Jan Smuts' views on this subject are correct. What you and I think on the matter will not count in the eighteenth degree. It will be simply another case of the little dog barking at the moon, and the moon keeps on shining. What fakers frogs are! To Mr. John, Reseday Smith, Alderman-elect, friend of the people: Long ago to Vez Misther John Smith May you die both late an ally. No seen in duty an' you done it. I heck!

His candidacy would be welcomed by many colored voters in Kansas who have become practically disgusted with the selah and discriminating policies pursued by the Republican machine crowd, headed by Dave Mulvane et al, who have demonstrated beyond a breaddrive that other than playing the part of political serfs, they have nothing more for the colored voter to do.—Wichita (Kansas) Protest. Just how many more theories will he advanced by our self-appointed leaders as to the thing that does need for the advancement of the race is problematical. Each one has an individual theory that according to his own version is the only panacea for race life. They try to teach the rank and file a lesson that they themselves have failed to learn in all their acquisition of knowledge—race co-operation. They oppose every man whose thinking does not coincide with their own each leader fighting for individual supremacy and branding every proposition as wrong except the one he supports. We seriously wonder if these fighting-one-another leaders ever pause to consider what the public thinks of their grand show-off without their putting into practical usage the theory they so earnestly seek to encourage others—Saint Paul Northwestern Bulletin. President Coelledge is not talking any more than he ever did, but he is acting with the same decision that has characterized his whole career. The President is among those who talk when they have something to say and who keep still when silence is the best of oratory.

As one of our ministers in this state very often says: "All the wise men are not in Congress." We say that all the good men will not be elected Bishop nor all the worthy men general officers. But we should and can find men worthy of connectional honors whose family records are pure and whose service to the Church is not impaired by jail sentences. We should not elect a man to any position of honor or trust whose record for moral attitude is very much in question. Our general officers and bishops should be men above reproach.

ROUSING OVATION GIVEN GREAT LEADER ON RETURN FROM TOUR WARNST THE RACE AGAINST SHAM LEADERSHIP-MASSES MUST PRODUCE THEIR OWN LEADERS The Hon. Marcus Garvey, President- General of the Universal Negro Impro- vement Association, and his wife received a tremendous ovation on their appearance at Liberty Hall, New York. Thursday night, November 8, on their return from a six weeks' tour of the United States. As the great leader and his wife entered the hall they received a welcome equalled only by that accorded him on his first public appearance after his release from prison. An excellent musical program was presented, after which the chairman of the meeting, Sir William L. Sherrill, Second Assistant President-General spoke. He was followed by the Hon. P. L. Burrows, First Assistant Secretary-General; Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, Fourth Assistant President-General, and Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey, who called on to say "Hello to the great gathering," delivered a very entertaining speech and expressed her pleasure at being once more behold ing the familiar faces of Liberty Hall. Mr. Garvey spoke on the subject, "The New Call to Ethiopia's Sons and Daughters." The full text of his speech follows: "Fellow members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, it goes without saying that I am pleased to be with you once more in Liberty Hall. I have just returned from my trip to the West, where I took my wife for a little rest and change, and on my travels through the country going to California and back to New York I and the good fortune to speak to the many divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association along the route. I met bodies of enthusiastic Elroy Manufacturing Company Makes Great Strides Elroy Manufacturing Company Makes Great Strides McHurst of Chicago Endoreas Company Chicago, November 5, 1923—One of the outstanding achievements made by Negroes in the manufacturing field is that made by the Elroy Manufacturing Company. The company has produced that same product for the past five years, some of the finest caskets on the market, the excellent quality and high grade workmanship of which are unquestioned. Besides the excellent quality and high grade workmanship factures its own embbling fluid and makes its own shoins and robes. After pioneering in the field for some length of time, the offices—which consist of J. W. Bromaugh, president; H. I. Cross, vice president; J. H. Revelis, secretary; and T. Nolen, treasurer—deployed to establish their own offices in Chicago. Presided the present well-appointed office and administration office in the Overton Building, the Elysoy Company maintains a warehouse and office for decorated display rooms on the North West Side. St. Louis, which was formerly the home office, is now a branch office. The second branch office is located in New York City. The written and oral administration office and laboratory. A very pleasant impression greeted him for he saw an unusual abundance of method, system, efficiency, skilled workmanship and executive ability being put into actual practice through the entire administration of the firm. It is a treat to the tenure so many coloured men and women, trained in each particular operation, working away in absolute harmony and contentment for the further development of the Elysoy Company. Although the Elysoy Company is still in the past, it plans to do still greater things in the near future. Through judicious conservative management, it has built up a business national in scope, which has gained the endorsement of the underwriters of the associations of New York, Philadelphia and well-known National Negro Underwriters' Association. side from the heavy endorsements of these organizations there come more many others a single outstanding embarkment from a Chicago munition firm, a first president of Division No. 313 of the U. N. L.A. He is a gentleman of character, retirement and rare attributions, whose many favors and contributions have been appreciated, the kind of many other prominent people in various sections of the country, Mr. Mifflin, eminent citizen of Chicago, is a through believer in the Eligro Company—its future and its vast possibilities. GREAT PLANS FOR THE FUTURE The company has just organized to buy the Eligro Company. The Eligro's products will be offered for sale not only to every Colbert Undertaker in America, but every White Undertaker as well. This means a great deal for the Negro, because he is entering field of competition where the meritorious vehicle is the uppermost consideration. It is a revelation to know that Nexros are doing such wonderful things in the field of big business. The organization of them upright, energetic, clean-cut men of integrity and vision of bigger business. Their is afty purpose for they realize that the salvation, safety and independence of the Negro must come through his commercial and industrial development. He must own large factories, business and financial institutions to supply the Negro and his plans not only well but on gold foundation. In the coming years this company will expand, ever reaching toward new and more distant goals. In fact, the Etoy Manufacturing Company has just put a few shares of stock on the market for the benefit of the Negro. The company purchased by the officers and directors of the company who believe produstively in the institution they have created, since the public has realized the unqualified merit of this company, it is believed that these shares will be sold within a very short time. The Etoy Manufacturing company it has acquired its motto and a worthy of the world's support.-Advert. men and women whose love and devotion for and to this cause cannot be surpassed. In looking into the faces of these thousands upon thousands of people whom I had the privilege of addressing I found that there was no rest for me in body, in mind or in spirit because of the great expectation of these people. When I took somewhat tired in body, and even in mind, I see before me the anxious faces of these old women, old men, earnest men and hopeful children that biny me up, and strengthen me anew for the great work to which we have given and dedicated our lives. Expectation Is Great I come back to you in New York with a stronger sense of my responsibility because the expectation is great. It practically brings tears to my eyes to see the condition of the people all over this country. When I speak of the people I mean the poor, helpless, leaderless people, the people whose only hope seemingly is in God, because they have practically lost all hope in their fellow men, the people who have been deceived more than once, the people who have been deceived more than one hundred times, the people who do not know in what direction to turn, whether to the east, to the west or to the north, this leaderless mass of people grouping in darkness, wandering in the wilderness, and no, shepherd to lead them in the direction of hope, in the direction of peace. Saving the Masses "I have had occasion to study the classes of people of our race who make up the country and I have discovered two classes, the people of the masses whom I have described a while ago and the people who seem to belong to that group now enjoying some kind of a privilege and some kind of an opportunity, who for this privilege and opportunity are willing to sell the masses of the people back even into slavery, even sending them to hell—that conscienceless, that soulless class that has stood in the way ever since our emancipation, that class which will ultimately mean our doom and damnation, if from the masses some one does not arise to point the people to salvation and to redemption. "Yes, the masses of the people are looking towards the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and, being the President-General of this association, I feel doubly my responsibility. It is grave, it is serious, and as God has given me the vision to see and as he has given the people the insight into following and supporting the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we hope to carry on this work for the salvation of the masses of this country and the masses of our race throughout the world. (Aphelus.)" Enthusiasm in the West "Your enthusiasm for the redemption of Africa, I hardly believe, can be compared with the enthusiasm of the people out West, especially in California. I spoke to the people at Los Angeles, in Oakland and in San Francisco. I had occasion to shake the hand of everyone to whom I spoke at those meetings and I had occasion also to speak to large numbers of the people at the conclusion of the meetings and at the places where I stayed, and every second man who camps to me was anxious to know if the time was ready to go to Africa. (Applause). They demanded of me an answer, and I was so sorry that I was not in a position to give them the answer that they desired, because every man was ready for Africa just now. Why? "Because the people saw themselves without hope, they saw themselves facing a terrible cabinity, a terrible danger, and they are as anxious to join Africa as the white man is anxious to make America a white man's com The Association's Strength I say to you, men and women of Liberty Hall, you have done a wonderful amount of good, not only to yourselves, not only to the people of this country, but to the Negro peoples of the world. You have made, I believe, stronger converts than yourselves. Because, when the call comes for action, when the real appeal is made for support for this cause of ours, I believe that every section of this country will answer, and if New York does not look out nearly every section will answer stronger and quicker than New York, and you know how quickly you answer the call of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. And if you can appreciate your own loyalty, then you will know the strength of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout this country when I speak of the loyalty of the members of the other divisions throughout the length and breadth of the United States of America. "You need not be afraid. You need not be despondent. You need not lose heart or hope. The day is coming. And with the new consciousness of my responsibility, with the new vision that I have, I feel that twelve months from today will bring great changes to the Negro peoples of the world. (Loud applause). I have come back to New York. I say, with stronger faith and confidence in myself, stronger faith and confidence in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, stronger faith and confidence in my God, and I feel sure that a brighter day, a brighter time is in store for us, those of us who follow the standard of the Red, the Black and the Green. (Applause). Human problem that concerns us now is one of racial human solidarity, when every man seems to be looking for himself, when every race seems to bepathy. Wise, such good and so gentle people can mean in any country, to any other Washington, Society Turns Out "Among some of the places that surprised me on this my last trip was the capital city of Washington. All the visits I have made to Washington—and I have made many visits, beyond the dozes—from the year 1918 up, to the visit before the last, brought out the people of Washington in the two hundreds or three hundreds or four hundreds. But I was surprised when I arrived in Washington last Tuesday night and was escorted to the church. I found a congregation running into thousands with no standing room, with people still outside clamoring for entrance and an audience made up of some of the once proudest colored people of Washington, of the common people of Washington, of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association of Washington, of Congressmen and Senators of the nation. (Applause.) The most enthusiastic crowd of people that I have addressed for the last two years were the people of Washington last Tuesday night; made up of all classes of Washington society. (Applause). The statesmen, the Senators and the Congressmen cheered and clapped and were in enthusiasm as some of the oldest and most loyal members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Laughter and applause.) Impressed with the Program And this is the spirit that has greeted on this last trip throughout the country. Not only in Washington, but in the other parts of the country the leading men of the community of the white race and the masses of our people came to hear, and all of them were impressed with this program of ours, and with those I have spoken to all of them have concluded there is but one solution for this great problem, this great conflict, and it is the redemption of Africa by the Negro peoples of the world for themselves. (Appease.) It would appear I feel more inclined to speak of the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association outside than I do in Liberty Hall, but all of you in Liberty Hall are educated in the doctrine of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Each and every one of you in Liberty Hall can make as good a speech as Marcus Garvey has touching the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (laughter), because you have graduated from the greatest university and the greatest school in the world. (Appease.) And I am going to ask you to take some of my work and to make your speeches in interpreting the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association wherever you go, because for the next twelve months we have to settle down and put over a large part of this program that we have been talking about for the last five years. Time is shortening on our hands. We have no such time now as we had last year or as we had the year before. Gradually this country and the world are returning to normal, and in the assumption of their normal responsibilities and duties to their respective peoples you and I are going to find a harder phase living alongside and competing with the other races. There is no provision for us except to be trampled under, to make room for and to give opportunities to the other races that are dominant. Your duty is to search out a way for yourselves. The Philosophy of Self-Help That is why we feel the concernness of our responsibility. That is why, we feel the stronger sense of our duty toward you and toward our people throughout the world. And, men and women of Liberty Hall, I want you to appreciate individually and code诚ly your responsibility and your duty. The mistlethood we make is to saddle one else with the responsibility for our condition. As I said to the people in the South, as I said to the people in the West, our condition is not blamable to the white man, is not blamable to any other race, is not blamable to God—our condition is blamable to ourselves, in that reasonably and logically no one can keep you down. You keep down yourselves. If you have made up your minds in satisfaction to remain down, you shall be down. But if you make up your minds, full of ambition and faith and hope, you are bound to rise and no one can keep you down. So that I trust that you will in your every day life prepound the philosophy of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the philosophy that must reach the four hundred millions of our people; that is, they must rise, they must rise by themselves. They must not expect to rise by the sympathy, even the help and the encouragement of others, because others have their own responsibility, have their own duty. Expect Nothing from Others Expect Nothing from Others As I said elsewhere and as I intend to say for a very long time more, it is unreasonable for us to expect the white man to do for us what he will do for himself. It is unreasonable to expect the white man to do for us what he will do for himself. It is unreasonable to expect anything from this American white man or from the white man of the world, because he has a duty to himself and a responsibility to himself. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association differ from other Negro movements and other Negro organizations in that they place their faith and confidence in others, believing others will be touched with the spirit of Christ to give to them, to do to them, what only a Christ would do, what only a Christ would give. We are not living in the age when men practice the real religion of Christ. There was but one, Christ, and that Christ was named to Calvary's cross nearly two thousand years ago. And He has no duplicate and will have none until He himself returns to the world a second time, which may be one thousand, ten thousand or a million years from now. Therefore, any faith on your part in any other race to do for you as it would do for itself is unreasonable and unfounded. Expect nothing from the white man. Expect nothing from the yellow man. Expect all from yourselves, because the great human problem that confronts us now in one of racial human relationships, when every man seems to be looking for himself, when every man seems to be looking for itself, when every nation seems to be looking for itself. Therefore, what can you expect but to look out collectively as a need for yourselves. Self-Balance "When we get to understand ourselves, when we get to know, when we get to realize that, as men, God Almightly placed us here to function independently, to carve out our own destiny, to be architects of our fate, then will we gradually rise, rise from this condition of peonage and slavery, rise from this condition of servitude into the real position and condition of men and women. That is the hope of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the hope of changing the minds of the people in causing them to look into the direction of self-reliance, having faith in themselves and confidence in themselves. And I am not mistaken in coming to the conclusion that in the Far West, in the Middle West and in the Southland we have succeeded in inspiring the people in thus looking forward, and I hope you in New York will not fall short of this greater vision, the vision of service to ourselves, the vision of self-reliance, of hope and dependence upon ourselves which will be the cause of our liberation, which will be the cause of Africa's redemption (Applause)." Changing the Political Map "We have stirred the world to a jealous understanding of our desires. There is no doubt of it. More is being said about the Universal Negro Improvement Association in this country than any one hundred Negro organizations put together. More is being said about the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the world than any one thousand Negro organizations put together. Why? You have the program that seriously arrests the attention of thinking men. (Hear, heart) You have a program that arrests the attention of, not the ordinary man on the street, not the loafer and the tramp, but you have the program that arrests the attention of the serious statesmen and leaders of the nations of the world (Applause). Your program is being discussed among governments, and, as I said to the members in other parts of the country, I found myself in jail the other day, not because I was preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ without fear or trembling. I was incarcerated not because I was a social disturber of domestic peace. But I was incarcerated because my desire and the desire of the organization that I represent was to change the political map of the world. You can hardly imagine the amount of attention that you attract, through this program that you have enunciated within the last five years. You are causing men everywhere to be anticipating them alive and anticipating you. As early as you are ready for the presentation of that demand, that, you must make, as readily will the world hear you and yield to your request. Unity of Purpose "But, men, you must realize that it cannot be done through a division of opinion; it can only be accomplished through a unity of purpose. And it is for that we appeal to you to make a burrow entry into the Universal Negro Improvement Association, because the longer you keep out of the fold, the longer you keep away from a movement like the Universal Negro Improvement Association, by so long do you put off the day of Africa' to corruption and the day of your own emancipation. You' help me wiserfully be offensive to your purpose and be by striking the plains of the association in a scandal out of your self. The difficulty that we have had leaders of this movement has been the kind of always courageous men and women. That should not be. When a man once enters the field of the University Norfolk Improvement Association it duty should be compelled, his obligation should be compelled. He should not give us the double work of making a survey of him a second time because that but problem the accomplishment of the great work that we are calling upon the four hundred million Norfolk of the world to put work or to accomplish. And I have new hope, I say, of you in New York and trust that all of you, those who once joined those who are members now, will realize it by your steadfastness, by your continuing morally and thanly to support this organization will you have in the day when we will be victorious in the great object, in the most ideal that we have out before us. What the South Expects "I want to say this, that the people of the south with whom I have come in contact are expecting touch of you, their brother and sister in the North. You who enjoy some a larger freedom, larger liberty, are expected to press on the more, because, empowered as they are it is impossible for them to come out with the openness. My expression as you can in centers like New York, and Chicago. But even though they are corrupted, even though they are entrapped with hostility, when you get into the hearts of these people you will see there a boiling cagerness, a steadfast enthusiasm, that you can in no way discount, that you can in no way deny. "I spoke to the people in cities like Birmingham and Atlanta and in Louisville and in Norfolk. In their great mass assembly they exhibited no fear. They were as courageous as people you could meet anywhere. Why? Because the great mass was together. They only exhibit fear when they scatter themselves sinister and individually and when they seem to believe, that the other-colored man is not interested in whatsoever happens to him or whatsoever happens to her. There seems to be a spirit of disinterestness as the people go about their daily avocations, because they are somewhat afraid to trust each other, not knowing each other. But when you get in the mass gathering, mass assembles such as I spoke of, when they can feel the heartbeat or the heart-throb of the other fellow, there is a commonness of sym- pathy. What, many people are as really and as politically as any other part of this country, in any other part of the world. The people are meeting for fellowship, they are leaving for the bringing together of themselves for the common cause. And I know that when you in the North and when the people in these free parts are ready for the great march that will be made one day the South will be as ready as you are, because the South is anxiously awaiting the day of Africa's redemption.

ANDERSON Minister of Labor and Industry DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND INDUSTRY 56 West 135th Street, New York City bring to me an admiring use and calling to us our liberty and my right to everyone who is willing to purchase it. I am sorry that I have no ability to the intelligence of the Negro of the twentieth century in this way, but my keen study and observation have brought me to this conclusion, and I warn the Negro peoples of the Western world against the kind of leadership that we have now, professional and otherwise. We have to develop among ourselves, I say, from the common people who suffer. You have to develop from among yourselves and, with the best intelligence you can, produce your own leaders, otherwise you are doomed forever. Now, I say this and I mean it from the profoundest depths of my soul. I say it from the fulness of my belief and my conviction. The intelligent, educated Negro of the twentieth century is a crook, a liar and a thief. He has no soul for leadership. He has no soul for sacrifice. He has no soul for devotion to his people. And I warn the muses of Negroes in this Western world against the present intelligence of the Negro that professes to lead him in the different walks of life. I could say much more than I say tonight, but I believe a word in that direction is enough to warn you and prepare you. Prostituting Intelligence "There are more plans and schemes among a certain class of intelligence in this country and in this Western world to profit the disadvantage of the masses of the people than you can calculate and count. And, as I said, the thing that paints me, the thing that brings tears to my eyes, is the picture of the old men and old women and hopeful crying children that I see all over the country. Otherwise, in disguise I would desert the ranks, feeling myself dishonored to belong to to a group of people who can so prostitute intelligence when the call is for service in the redemption of a race suffering and struggling and bleeding such as ours. It makes me feel disgusted when I come up with the intelligence of this race of oil." You can see how heartless a old ad which it is, and I trust you will may to God to evolve from among you. The common people, a new king of leadership that will save us from the doom that the nations. I trust out of this Negro race will come the kind of leadership start the Anglo-Saxon race has given to the world. I trust that one of the free and out of one condition of the common people will spring forth a leadership such as the Anglo-Saxon race of today has had once. It is only that conscientious leadership that sense of duty and responsibility to face and to nation such as the Anglo-Saxon leaders demonstrate such as the Anglo-American leaders demonstrate in this country that will save a race and a people. The Need of the Race I thank the foresee that you young men and women are going up from among the people will take on the vision of love, the vision of human sympathy, the vision of racial responsibility, and lead, not for the profit that leadership talks so elitantly, but lead on for the service we can render to humanity, lead on for the service we can render to our God. I trust that the great God who loves and loves would strike dead every Negro who attempts to lead this race. CAN YOU SLEEP ALL NIGHT? Or Must You Get Up Frequently by Reason of Bladder Trouble?

The law is duty that men could be called to do the duty of service to raise services to a people.

(Loud and prolonged app. pause.) BROOKLYN CHAPTER On Sunday, November 4 the members and friends of the Brooklyn chapter had the pleasure of listening to a most inspiring and instructing lecture by Dr. B. Osborne on the "Immaculate Conception." Bearing in mind how the prophets, the Christ and the apostles suffered in their day for imparting self and not knowledge to the masses and the confusion that ensued among the bishops in discussing this intricate question during the reign of Constantine and the unpreparedness of our own people on the vital question of life. I was somewhat doubtful of the doctor's ability to discuss the subject successfully and its reception by such an audience. But as the lecturer proceeded with ease and grace to trace out on the canvas the various parts of the human body, calling each part by its biblical name, and explaining in minute detail their functioning in the propagation of life and human happiness, doubt was changed into admiration. The clinician was reached when the time for asking the doctor questions came. As was to be expected, some of the questions were somewhat peculiar, but the masterful way in which they were answered by the lecturer evoked round after found of applause. JAMES F. SAMUELS.

NATIONAL CAPITAL AROUSED BY MASTERFUL ADDRESS OF MARCUS GARVEY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE, BLACK AND WHITE, LISTEN ENTHUSIASTICALLY TO PRESIDENT GENERAL OF THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVE- MENT ASSOCIATION THE SPIRIT OF A MOVEMENT CANNOT BE CAGED BIRINGTON. D. C. Nov. 6.—John WOODSON, A. M. E. Zion, was killed on overcrowding on Tuesday night. November 6, by an onthusistic crowd, composed of all classes and including many of the white citizenry, in order to greet once more the world famous orator and President of the U. M. I. A., who was in the city on a flying visit. Undoubtedly the crowd, which approximated two thousand, desired to see Hon. Marcus Garvey and hear some more of his views, after his incarceration in New York. He was, as usual, full of his subject; he showed that his enthusiasm for the cause, far from being diminished, was considerably heightened, and with that enthusiasm which he so richly possessed he was able to carry away the feelings of the house, his address being interpersed with appliance. He said nothing here. But what he repeated, showed that the fire of independence and love for his race burns at brightly as it ever did. There was prepared for the entertainment of the audience a select musical program, in which several artists took part. Special mention has to be made of the East Washington male choir who rendered some very soulful selections in the host style and won repeated applause when they sang, among other items, some of the old Negro Spirituals. We hope that the choir will continue to keep up the excellent impression which they made on the audience. Mr. Saraldi D. Washington is the able leader to whom we wish to extend our commiments. The meeting was opened by the president of the Washington Division, Hon. Attorney Joseph H. Stewart, after which the chaplain led the meeting in prayer. The U. N. L. A. choir under the leadership of Professor Edward Rhymes rendered a selection which was followed by a piano solo by Miss Helen Young. Presentation to Mrs. Garvey At this stage, the president announced that the ladies, of the division had decided to make a presentation to Hon. Mrs. Garvey, and called upon the Hon. lady president, Mrs. Louise V. Munroe, to represent them. Mrs. Munroe then in a near little speech spoke in very appreciative terms of the word of the famous leader and legged her to accept from the ladies of the division, as a token of their appreciation of her work, and assistance to the president-general, a little silver set. She was also presented with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Reply by Mrs. Garvey Mrs. Garvey, in reply to it, gave to thank you kindly for your gift in representation of the little device I am rendering to the race. It is my duty as a Negro woman to detail how in my power to partner the caper of the L. N. L. A. ladies that mercy the bettlement and uphold of the Negro race in every well and endeavor of life. With my impressions of the character of Her Majesty, Garrard, and his bravery in the pursuit of him to reach on this task. Therefore, I will I have no comment on the nature of the services I am rendering to may render the future. However, I thank you kindly and will also give the thanks of appreciation that the President, introduces the President-General. Hon Joseph J. Garrard, of Shannon and Garrard, we have been particularly fortunate to collaborate with you in one of the most productive years of the world. In fact, he is the eminent man in the world, receiving to my views. He is a man of great skill within the culture of the other blacks in the world. He looks at the problem of the poor, not as a man of skill in the face of it, but as a man of strength in the face of it, and speaks the mind of the people he leads. WOMAN SECRETS YOU MUST KNOW Life is organized by the new science of life, the care of married happiness—why women give children or live more emotion-starved lives—the vital secret of imagination or personality. All these interesting subjects are explained by a well-known physician who wrote this booklet to explain to women patients, especially those who were children and craved for family life, things that they should know. This booklet also tells about a simple home treatment that has had marvelous results in satisfying the heart, hunger. This booklet is Free.

I ask that you give him careful attention, and weigh profoundly each thought as the speaker advances it. I therefore take great pleasure in announcing to you the Hon. Marcus Garvey, president-general of the U. N. I. A. and of the African Communities League. MR. GARVEY'S ADDRESS Mr. President, Fellow Citizens: It is indeed a pleasure to me to find myself in Washington again and to speak to you, its citizenship, in the interest of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. I am just completing a trip around the country. I started for California, a little over a month ago to give my wife some rest and change, and in so journeying I had to stop off at many points to speak to divisions of the U. N. L. A. in making the circuit back to New York, I would not do so without taking in the South. I like the South of the United States of America better than any part of the country because it is the part of America that is going to make the Negro of the world; it is the one part of the world that is living long consciousness home to the Negro. I wanted new inspiration for my work, and I decided to see the jum-cars come more, to take in the actions and attitude of my Southern white fellow citizens some more; and now I am going back to my work full of inspiration gathered from the South. I could not return to New York passing through the South, without since to Tuskegee I want to pay homage to that dead hero. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON. the greatest man the western world has produced up to the twentieth century. So few of us seem to know and appreciate the work of Booker Washington. Later on we will realize the value of the man. Washington has done a work that will live forever. He not only helped the American Negro, but the Negroes of the world, with his philosophy, and the institution he has given us in this country. I spent two days there. I took my wife to see the work of that great man. The International Solution I am not sure what time I was when the notice if he has been will it be being after himself. I have always come here to notice the white man, as I have no time for me. I care about the rest of the white man just as I care about the rest of the limousine for me. I have the highest regard and respect for him. I hold him. I say in the highest respect, and if I were a white man I would just ask that they are doing if I were a white man my supreme duty would be to look after the interest of other white men, and if possible, keep other folks down. If I were a Japanese my supreme duty would be to look after the interest of the Japanese, and if possible, keep other folks down. Bourn a Negro, however, my supremacy is to look after the interest of our hundred million Negroes of the world. We are not going to keep any duty down, but give everybody a chance and opportunity to rise. The white man has risen to his power and glory. He can stay there. We do not want to pull him down. The yellow man is gradually rising to his power and glory. We wish him back. The U. N. L. A. is now organizing four hundred hundred Negroes to rise to their power and glory, and anything that stands in their way had better look out, because we are coming four hundred million strong. Again I say we offer no apology for the program of the U. N. L. A.; neither do we offer any compromise. I did not come to preach a sermon, nor have I come to ask you to build a new church or a new Y. M. C. A. I have come to ask the citizens of Washington to help the six million members to lay the foundation of a new nation, and establish a government for the Negro peoples of the world. I have come to ask you to help us out over a big job. I am not going to matter you about it --- THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1923 at all. I am here to tell you that we are the most backward people in the world, and we are the laziest set of people in the world when it comes to doing anything for ourselves. I know some of you do not like this kind of talk, but it is the kind of talk that is going to save the Negro, and lend him to realize that he is still at the foot of the great human ladder; and so long as he flatters himself and keeps himself there, the whole world will keep him down. I am here to emphasize again what the white people of this country are saying. What the White Man Is Saying I am here to emphasize what the Ku Klux Klan is saying, and what every white man in America is saying, whether he is honest enough to admit it openly or not—that this is a white man's country. And the Negro who believes that the white man is thinking about handing it over to him has a second thought coming. (Appease.) I have traveled from New York to Los Angeles, to San Francisco; back through Kansas; then through Atlanta and other cities up to Washington. And let me tell you this: That any Negro who thinks that the white people are thinking about larger opportunities for Negroes, to one day making them Congressmen, Senators, Mayors and Governors, members of the Cabinet, with the constitutional right to be president of the nation, will be waiting for the song day when Cabriel blows his horn. Minority Groups I say I am not here to flatter you because my duty is to study not only America, but the world, as for as they affect the interests of black men; and my study leads me to the conclusion that it is waste of time for Negroes an minority groups in the majority civilization of other races to ever hope to have equal chances and opportunities with those of the majority races. I do not like to waste time, life is too short, and I believe that every man should count every minute for something accomplished and something done. I repeat, I do not believe in wasting time, and the rising New Negro and the ambitious Negro is wasting time if he believes that he will ever rise to equal rights with the other races where the government falls into the hands of the other race, and where this other race forms the majority of such governments or in such civilization. Why do we look to the program of the U. N. L. A? It is because we realize we are a minority group sufferer of over the world, not only in the United States, but only in South and Central America, and in the West Indies, under the British Government. We are coercing to link up these minority groups into one minority whole to the purpose of creating out of this minority whole a government of our own. "Carys and Blast" I repeat that of government is good for the white man in need for the yellow man when government is also good for the black man. The world today needs to be other senses cannot hope and should be to ever keep the Negro as a shine shining, a partner of a bellows. The Negro is being to blink things, and the Negro is looking to tilt himself in the world according to his ability. It is unlikely a him for nothing better than a show shirt, he is satisfied if his ability fits him for nothing more than a bellows he is satisfied. If his ability, on the other hand, fits him to be a Senator, Congressman, Mayor, Governor or President, then he wants the job, and is going to fight, and if necessary do for it. (Applause.) And since two mills cannot rejoin in the same pool, since you cannot have two governments in one, and since a limit has been placed on the Negro's ambition all over the world, the new Negro, through the U. N. L. A., says that he is going to carve and blast a way for himself. He is going to create for himself; he is going to build for himself, and we are going to do so without offending anyone. Because it is our right to do it wrong is the only hope of this race of ours. Crazy and Radical other people's liberty. Some people believe that half of the world is still asleep. Some people believe in continuing the old-time propaganda, to tell part of the world to look up whilst the other pilfers your pocket. The New Negro is looking up, but is also looking down. He is looking up with one eye and looking down with the other. Therefore, somebody seems to be somewhat mistaken, as touching the attitude of this New Negro. Some people think that you can suppress him by locking him up jail, and nailing him in a box. U. N. I. A. Spirit Cannot Be Jailed The spirit of the U. N. I. A. cannot be jalled (applause). Neither can it be nailed in a box. It is the spirit of liberty which is at large, and has taken hold of the people everywhere. I know some of you have come out to see a man just from jail. I am glad to satisfy your curiosity, to let you know that jail has no terrors for those who lead the U. N. I. A. (applause). Everyone is ready and glad to go to jail, and go anywhere, as Patrick Henry was ready; as George Washington was ready, and as the Fathers of American Independence were ready when they struck the blow for the freedom of this great country; as Robert Emmet of Ireland; as O'Connell was ready to buy down his life; as was Roger Cassetment, McKinney and DeValera. Heaven, Hell and Jail Being in my sober sonse and being conscious of myself and my responsibility, I have decided to make one out of three choices. In the execution of my duty as leader of the U. N. I. A, and more responsible duty as provisional President of Africa, for the cause of Negro freedom, for the cause of Negro liberty, I have the choice between heaven, hell and the jail. Any one of these three that it takes to emancipate four hundred. Illion Negroes and redeem the country I am going to make the selection. Somebody seems to think that we are still living in the last century, in the time of Uncle Tom. We have buried the old Uncle Tom and we are burying the remaining ones every day, and in a short white they will all be gone. The New Negro is here, the Negro of France and Flanders and Mesopotamia; the Negro of the Spanish-American War; the Negro of Ashantee and of the Dauro wars. They are here and are appreciative of the rights of man and of the spirit of democracy. The new man is here who wants his place in the world. (Applause) Now, understand that. The Negro is here who wants his place in the world. Not a boy's place, but a man's place. (Cheers). Notwithstanding the concept of a David Lloyd George, who believes that Englishmen and Anglo-Saxons are made to rule the darker peoples; notwithstanding the opinion of Potenciar that Frenchmen are fit to shape and rule the destinies of the darker people; notwithstanding the opinion of the Italian, Russian and German leaders that the darker peoples are not fit to govern themselves; with all respect to their opinions, we want to say now that if somebody does not clear the way there is going to be trouble for somebody down here. (Applause). There is going to be trouble for England and France, Italy and Belgium, Portugal and Spain, if they do not clear the way when four hundred nations get ready. A Nation and a Government And the U. N. I. A. is now little, them up. This is my duty; my duty is to organize the Negro peoples of the world. For what? I establish a nation and a government of their own. Because in the tree of what has been said to us being not deaf, we have heard. The great white man of America says America is a white man's country, behin not that we have heard. The white man across the border in Canada is a white man's country. Being not deaf we have heard the white man across the Atlantic, the waters in Australia, say there is a white man's country. Being not deaf, we have heard the views of white man in Europe say "Europe must be made safe for the white man. Being not deaf and being not dumb, we declare on our hand, that Africa shall be made safe for the black peoples of the world (giplause), and anybody who thinks that the Negro is going without a home is crazy. Everybody wants a national homeland. Even the slow has deserted the money bags for the power of government, because he realizes that property and money and education and life without power to protect them amount to naught. Therefore, even the Jew that holds the money bags of the world is asking a government of his own in Palestine; and therefore we of the U. N. I. A. have all come to the conclusion that there, is only one solution for this great problem of ours. It is not a solution of prayers only; it is not a solution of our petitions only. "Sing not how violent we word them. No; the only solution of the Negro problem is the accumulation of power among the Negro people es of the world. (Giplause.) No Trouble Wanted Power, that when it speaks, every man will hear; or if they do not hear they will feel, and somebody is crazy, I say, who thinks that the Negro of the twentieth century is going to battle his way through the world without rising to the position of a real man. Now, we do not wan, any trouble; we like peace. We love humanity too much to disturb the order of society, and do anything that would disrupt the peace of the world. It is because we love peace why we advocated this program and tell the world our needs. Some people of the world are still rating us back in 1865. They are mistaken. The New Negro is here; a new feeling, love, passion and ambition is here, and he is dissatisfied with his present condition. Now this is honest, this is wise. I could go to my white stands and tell them "Oh, you need not worry about the Negro problem, it is all right, it will solve itself." I would not put out that lie to the white man an 'deceive him' that wouldn't take us anywhere. He would not believe that I would be satisfied to shine his shoes and be his gardener. Why should I deceive them? It would be a lie. I am looking for the larger opportunity, for the New Negro wants the same job as the White man. It is no use lying about it and camouflaging. The Negro we turn out of the colleges, universities, and high schools wants his place in the nation, and the white man is not going to give it to him. With all your prayers, and with all your hopes, he would be crazy if he did. Now let me ask you this: Suppose you were in the white man's position, what would you do? To be honest as Christians you would do just what the white man is doing now. (Hear, hear! It is human nature; we cannot help it, were we black, or red. Therefore, do not expect too much from the white man. The white man is not Christ, but a human being. Christ is the only human being who ever decided that He would give to the other fellow all that would make the other fellow comfortable, and take nothing for Himself. But there is no Christ down here now. (Laughter.) That Christ was crucified on Calvary's cross and sent back to His God, and we told He is to come back a second time; it may be tomorrow; it may be a thousand years from now; it may be a million years from now. We are not going to take the chance to wait all that time. Therefore, knowing that there is no Christ down here now, we are not going to expect the white man to play the part of Christ. Complacency There are some Negroes around Washington and America and around the Western world who expect that the white man is such a big fool as to give him that which, they want for themselves. Now I want you to reason this out as intelligent, sober man and woman. If there is something that you want, and want badly, would you foolishly give it up to somebody else who wants it? Self-preservation is the first law of nature, charity begins at home; and the Negro who is thinking that the white man is so crazy as to be contemplating giving up his job to some Negro now or in the future. I say, he has a long, long wait. To contemplate that President Coolidge would give him his job to contemplate that the Governor of New York would give up his job to some Negro, the President of the Pennsylvania railroad; the Senator from Maryland; the Archbishop of the Diocese of the District of Columbia would give up his job to some Negro. Yet this is the expectation of some Negroes. There it is, and they are crazy enough to believe that the white man would be such a fool. Now, we have to look at this thing soberly, and dis it soberly. If you and I are satisfied, as I said before, to be bellows and porters, then there will be no trouble in the future because our place is already cut out in the nation. But if you contemplate to be anything else, something that is worth while, brother, there is going to be trouble. There is going to be trouble. If you have amputation, the force that cannot be satisfied where you are, your one duty is to satisfy that amputation in the best possible way; and the N. L. A. is pointing the way to Negroes who do not desire to be porters and railroaders and farm hands. Those who are satisfied may remain just where they are, but all Negroes who hope to be men, who hope to be Servants, the Congressmen and statesman, and big industrial magnates and captains, and better start to create a place for them. Conditions Changing We are divided from the other Negro organizations of this country in this that we force us to treat in these parts of the world, especially in the United States of America, in the conflict between black and white for position, and for a place in the nation. To prevent, and to solve it is our work. In another fifty or a hundred years we are going to have changed conditions in America, the professions of our friends notwithstanding. Perforce the time is coming when the white people of America will have to look out for themselves in an unsympathetic world, in an overcrowded world, in a world of limited opportunities. In another hundred years, the white men of this country, who will have multiplied to hundreds of millions instead of ninety-five millions today, being overcrowded in the great cities and industrial centers of this country, will perform be compelled to look out for themselves regardless of Christian feelings and human sympathy for others. Now, some of you will say that I am Important to All Women Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it. Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or pain. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and maybe despondent; it makes an upset. But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions. Many send for a sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer's Company, you will be able to may receive sample bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase specimen, and large bottles at all drug stores.

S. A. talking about one hundred years from now, and you are not opaque. That is where we differ from other people. We tak our condition as it is. We do not worry or the tomorrows, but only of the todays. In another hundred years the spectacle that confronts me is this that there will be millions and millions of hungry white men and, women in this country clamoring for a chance, an opportunity, to live. And such a chance and such an opportunity will be limited to millions of hungry men and women of the white race; and I want you to contemplate the progress of the black race in the face of a starving number of the white race. If you can imagine East St. Louis, if you can imagine Tulsa, then you will have a picture that will confront America in another hundred years. Such a Helpless People You and I are marking time to the tune of danger—the danger that is ahead of us. You talk about a solution of the Negro problem. The white man is no longer as he was. He has the solution in his pocket, and in a short while it will be made effective. We are such a helpless people that sometimes I feel sorry, I feel dejected. But because of this inspiration, because of this vision, I take hope that I will be able to convert the people to a realization of their responsibility and their duty to themselves. We talk about our boasted progress in America. We talk about our boasted progress in the Western world us Negroes; that in fifty years we have made wonderful progress in America and in eighty-five years in the West Indies. Negroes, do you know we have made no progress at all? It may sound strange, paradoxical, but nevertheless it is true. You will say I am crazy, that I do not know what I am talking about, because we have our beautiful homes that we have built within the last fifty years; that we have so much in property—hundreds of millions of dollars; millions of acres of land that we have acquired since Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. We have accumulated millions of dollars in property, education and culture. Yet I say that we have accomplished nothing. Negroes, we have nothing in the Western world that the white man cannot take away from us within twenty-four hours. Something—Nothing You have something when you can protect that something. You have nothing when you cannot protect that which you have. (Applause) And there is nothing that we have as a race in this Western world or in the world that we can protect or that we can keep if the other fellow makes up big mind to get it. And nobody knows when he is going to make up his mind to get it. That is the trouble and that is the fear. Nobody knows when the burglar will come; but the sensible man is always preparing for the burglar. He always has something near by, so that if the burglar comes at midnight he will be ready to surprise him. Negroes, the Negroes position in the world will be made safe only when he has succeeded in accumulating the kind of power that the world respects. Not the power of petition, not even the power of our prayers to Christ, because He hears them but does not answer them immediately. Time to Him is like a million years, and He may take all that time to answer your prayers. You will be waiting a long, long time to get what you want in that way. Money Power You must understand that there is only one thing the world respects today, and that is power. The accumulated power of America in finance, in resources, in man power, in intelligence, compels the other nations of the world to respect America, and American ideals. If America had no money, no man power, no resources. David Lloyd George would not be running around here; Clemenceau and Diaz would not be running around here, either as representatives, ambassadors, or special ministers plenipotentiaries. It is the money power of America that attracts the world; it is the resources of America that attract the world. It is the accumulated power of America that drives fear into the hearts of the nations of Europe. When you can accumulate such a power in the United States of Africa, the Negro problem will be solved. (Applause.) You and I may talk as much as we like. We may hold meetings as much as we like, but we are not going to move and touch anybody around here. When we shall have started out to show the world what we, as men, are capable of; show to the world that we are capable of making our own independent contribution to civilization, to the human race, then everybody will hear us, and everybody will respect us. It is not so much your color, it is your condition. Have nothing, and the world refuses to associate with you, have something, and everybody wants to know you. Now, understand, we are not fooling with this Negro question, we are serious about it, as serious as the white man. We are as serious as the yellow man. We Want An Equitable Division of the apola of the world. We are satisfied that the white man should have his, and we will uphold him in having his, and, because of our liberality, because of our largeness of heart, we will light with him to keep it, mtt, brother, we are going to have ours (applause). And whatsoever it takes to get it, four hundred million Negroes have it. In the face of dreadful odds, for our higher ambition, we are satisfied to give up America, because we know that that higher ambition will never be satisfied here; for the sake of our higher ambition we (Continued on page 10) THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.L.A.

Address all mail and money orders to Royal Chemical Company JAMARA, NEW YORK (Address this page) KINGSTON, Jamaica, B. W. I, Oct. 26, 1922. — Among the events of the above division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that have been "washed out" owing to the incarcerant rains that fell last week are: First, the function for the swearing into office of the Hon. S. M. Jones, president of the division, as organizer and general supervisor of the U. N. I. A. in the island, of Jamaica, B. W. I.; second, the by-weekly medical clinic; third, the usual Saturday night promenade and dance in aid of Liberty Hall Building Fund; fourth, harvest festival; fifth, the Sunday school picnic. A few hours' break in the weather on Sunday evening, the 21st, however, made it possible for a fair membership to turn out and take part, soon after the religious service, in bidding farewell to the honored and loyal lady president, Miss Eva Aldred, who sailed for Nassau on the 22d. Mr. G. P. Llewellyn, third vice-president, presided, and among those on the platform were Hon. S. M. Jones, organiser And general supervisor of the U. N. X. I. A. in Jamaica; Dr. Bruce Forbes, executive secretary; Mrs. Ada Hyatt and Miss Susan Pussey; second and third lady vice-presidents, respectively, and Mrs. Ada Jones, secretary ladies' division. Mr. Llewellyn, on taking the chair, expressed his regret that, owing to the inclemency of the weather, there was not a larger attendance to take part in the "sending off" of their beloved lady president, but he felt sure that the hearts of the absent ones were there with them that night. He then paid a glowing tribute to the career of Miss Aldred and her unswerving honesty of purpose as an officer and member of the U. N. I. A, which had won for her a distinguished place in the hearts of every member and friend of the division. She had given of her best whenever called upon to assist in the cause of Africa, where the local was concerned, and he trusted that her example would be followed by those whom she is leaving behind. He also regretted very much that necessity called her from her island home and mother division, but he was certain her zealousness in the work of the U. N. I. A. would not relax but would be a tower of strength to the divisions she links up with, and so gain for her that ardent affection and friendship which she is leaving. Farewell Address Among the addresses of farewell was the following, which was read by Mrs. Ada Jones on behalf of the ladies of the division: Dear Miss Aldred: It is with profound regret that we have to say goodbye to you tonight. On behalf of the ladies' division we beg to say how much we appreciated your self-serving services among us. For the past few years we have associated with you we have found you faithful, trustworthy, honest and true to the best of your ability. "During your years we true service you have formed many auxiliaries for the benefit of the U.N. A.U. and the benefit of your people. Among these are the Black Cross Society, the Mothers' Union, the Girls' Guide and the Ladies' Workroom. You have not only formed them, but as a faithful worker, you have given all your energy that they might be a success. We have found in you a true woman and the position which you occupy requires A so that you are the right woman in the right place. We can further any you have been a hard worker. You have maintained to the nails; you have answered to the call of the needy; you have comforted the end. Your kind and courtyard words to them that would ask of you have been a source of relief. "We have never found you abhiking. At any call you promptly answered. "We have esteemed you very much as lady president of the Kingston Division No. 100 of the Universal Negro Improvement. Association for nearly two years. Your intelligence, capability, efficiency and lady-like manner have won the respect of all. The vacant place that is left by you will not easily be filled, but Divine Lord that has led you into this division we hope will also lead another like you. "We love you dearly. We miss you, and in saying this you can be assured that we are voicing the sentiment of the entire division. We therefore have the greatest pleasure to present you this small purse, not for its intrinsic value, but as a token of love and appreciation of your true services rendered in the U. N. L. A. "We know that the U. N. L. A. is everywhere, and we hope wherever you go you may cast your whole soul into the work, as you have done among us. And may God's richest blessings go with you; may He prosper you with long life, health and prosperity. "In closing, let these words of the poet be your guide: "The lesson of our life is this: That woman's sphere in wide; That what by women has been done By women may be tried. "You may not win a noble name— That honor falls to few; Whatever work lies next your hand That work God means for you. Then do it wisely, do it well. Be brave and pure and good.

TORONTO, CANADA Sunday, October 28, the Toronto division was treated to a real literary evening, when several well-prepared papers were presented to the audience. Mr. Garter, our president, introduced Mr. Meyers, who acted as chairman.

COAST TO COAST TRIP made from chicle. Chicle runs wild in Africa, and some black men say, "They have, lost nothing is Africa." Wake up, fools! If you can't mine for gold, diamonds and other minerals in Africa, go find chicle and become, black millionaire. I saw the big estate of Busch, the man who made his millions from beer. Tea, beer, that some of us Negroes could not do without before prohibition, and would our last dollar on. Well Busch, the white man, got it, and he is a millionaire today. What fools we Negroes be. I saw the mansions of pock-packers, miners, manufacturers—all in Millionaires' Row. Men who had started out in life penniless and worked their way up to be controllers of industries, and then—millionaires. Mount Wilson loomed up in the distance, on the summit of which is a great astronomical observatory, in which I learned is the largest telescope in the world. This place is reached by auto or trail. John D. Rockefeller once owned a home here, but he only spent one winter in it, and gave it to the city as an institution. It is large and sumptuous, like a hotel, but John D.'s taste is fickle, and after spending only a paltry few hundred thousand dollars to acquire it he gave it way. Hollywood the Land of. Pictures Now for Hollywood. Dear, familiar Hollywood needs no introduction. All movie fans know their geography, but the history of Hollywood has been badly taught you. The naughty things you hear about your white heroes and heroes occur in their homes and in the road houses at night after the day's routine is over. And then these beauties scrape off grease and paint, and relax. Even though they are all movie folks, they have their social standards and classes. Stars, managers, directors, actors, extras, etc. The studios are like towns in themselves. Most of them are walled in from the eyes of the would-be audiences. I will not describe one here, as I intend to write a special article soon that will fully describe a studio. I saw Charlie Charlin's home and studio on Brea avenue, which takes in a block, but I learned that he had recently moved, and I could not locate his mustache and large shoes anywhere in Hollywood or Culver City. Driving through Reverly Hills I saw the palatial home of Doug Falchanks and Mary Pickford. Please don't ask me to describe it, as the manager of The Negro World will soon be charging me for space, and I must hurry on. However, their home is set in a semi-tropical park of the most gorgeous foliage and flowers. Movie stars do not hold the monopoly on nice homes. Jack Dempsey owns a Spanish-looking palace on South Western avenue, in Los Angeles. He is the white man who got $500,000 in ten minutes for knocking out Firpo, the South American. The white man, who is afraid to fight Harry Wills, our Negro heavyweight champion of the world, because he knows that no white man can honestly stand up under the superior strength of our black men. God! If our men would but use their brains as well as their muscles, backed up by our numbers, we would — Well, never mind, friends, that's of the future. Is it not? Meeting Friends Westwood, another section, is fast becoming a second Hollywood. By the way, we went to Santa Monica, a seaside resort, to fish. I blush to say it, but I was the only one that caught anything—two large fish. Mr. Garvey is evidently a fisher of men, and not a fisher of fish. We had several invitations to dinner, etc., but could not accept many of them, as our stay was short and program large. We attended a luncheon party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Coleman, a prominent family, in Los Angeles, and had the pleasure of meeting, personally, about twenty of the prominent citizens. We also had many callers. People came from San Diego, Riverside, and even from Arizona to see my husband. Our old friend, Mr. Noah D. Thompson, the former president of the Los Angeles Division, of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, called on us. He seemed in the best of health and was warm in his greeting. He said he had been very much misunderstood in his recent attitude toward the Universal Negro Improvement Association, that he is a friend of the organization, as he has always been, in so much that the owner and publisher of the leading "Negro yellow sheet" induced him to give evidence against Marcus Garvey in the recent case in the Federal Court, and offered him ten dollars per day for his time in court, and a bonus if Garvey was convicted, besides having his expenses paid, and yet he turned down the magnificent offer on principle, because he was a friend of the organization and a Negro like Marcus Garvey. I have heard many similar tales of the easy money offered to anyone who would testify against my husband in the court. I can spot many a man that wared fat after his conviction—men who had risen to prominence through the organization. Men who had come pleading distress and want, and were given jobs and lucrative jobs to do by my husband. Men to whom he had stretched out the helping hand and dragged them out of the mire of want. But the mills of the gods grind slowly, but exceedingly fine, and as they have sown so shall they reap, and many shall, like Judas, throw away the thirty pieces of silver and, go out and hang themselves. But let me pass on and tell you of the flowers—beautiful flowers—God's messengers of love and cheer. Here they abound, Rosen, carnations, verbena, dahlias of all shades and descriptions, satera, chrysanthemum as small as pinks and come in large or grapefruit. I could fill a column trying to name the flowers. Every room on the house in which we stayed had vases, and bowls filled with beautiful and sweet-smelling flowers. Fruits are as plentiful as bowls, and cheeses. Every morning before breakfast I could afford to take three large oranges juiced. Los Angeles and its surroundings would be a real Eden for Negroes if it were put for that viper, race prejudice, with its fangs of hate over ready to strike and kill the rising ambitions and hopes of Negroes. The time is far spent; let me close with very best wishes. Yours truly, A. JACQUES-GARVEY. GARVEYISM IN AFRICA (Continued from page 2) from Marcus Garvey in New York prison, "where the interests of Great Britain and France have put him with the hope that the National movement he has initiated will suffer from social disintegration. What fuss and hypocrisy! Let the hypocrites know that no power between heaven and hell can stop or crush the racial aspiration of any group. Rome failed; Great Britain is on the verge of collapsing. We have become alert to its subversive propaganda of "divide and rule" among the subject races. So, the incarceration of Marcus Garvey can mean nothing to us but force multiplied by momentum. It was to be expected that his fearless agitation for race rights would sooner or later result in martyrs to the cause. Martyrdom is both the brand of a great cause and the unmistakable sign of its approaching triumph. Every great cause has had its martyr, and many causes that were not in their own virtue have been made so by the shedding of blood—martyrly blood. The history of Christianity is the history in lesser degree of every great cause. No ideal was ever so terribly persecuted, as Christianity, and no ideal was ever so gloriously and grandly victorious as Christianity. No proponent of an ideal was ever so bounded and gravely persecuted as was the Nazareth, who was crucified by the white people because "the strength up the people." And yet the centuries have seen the ideals of the "theanthropos" triumphant over land and sea, if yet without a place in the hearts of the capital-imperialists, of which class he stated that "it would be harder for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven." The Lot of the Reformer So true it is that martyrdom has ever been the portion of those who have essayed the championship of the down-trodden and oppressed, that the radicals of today-black and white—are quite aware that they court martyrdom by fighting the cause of the oppressed against the oppressor, and have all along known that persecution and attempted repression would be the ultimate answer of the oppressors, who, in whatever age they lived, have never learned that ideas cannot be shot out of existence. The progress of the A. M. E. Church ought to convince the doubling Thomasases of the opposite race. The Doers in the Northern Provinces flogged and fruitlessly put in goal the native proponents of this militant Negro religious organization; today this black man's church is doing a remarkable work religiously, educationally and racially among the aboriginals in this country, and it simply goes to show that the Negroes—may I say the Afrikanes abroad—have and are in sympathetic accord with our nationalistic aspirations. The students of social forces tell us that the leader or a leader of any social group must necessarily be autochthonous, which is true. Then it follows that if Negroes are but black men, men of our race, and having then among us shining constellations of the first magnitude—the Garvies, the Agreys, the Vernons, the Abdurhamam certainly we can by virtue of this intelligence develop a Greater Africa with our civilization. Solution of the Problem Hence territorial segregation (and rigid); I mean in the sense of restricting the movements of any group or pro bono publica) is indeed in preferment to partial segregation. This is the aim and goal of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and in its platform lies the solution of the "black problem." But this the white race is too hypocritical in its attitude to see. Hence we are still to have in our segregated areas the ministers of the Dutch Reformed Church (the apologists of capitalistic (tranny) with their oblivious legislation. Can you beat it? Indeed it is a ploetora of derogatory allusion to allude to it as a church of the Living God. The kind of segregation which our government wants is not the "Garvey segregation" because this is too good, as it will make you not to vengebe before the other fellow; it must be a segregation based (mind now) on the principle that only through his learning to create values in the service of the white man, that is to say, in the service of their progress and of his own, does the native attain to moral right to his existence: The Garvey program must be studied by the Bantu politician in season and out of season. His adamant stand in championing the sacred cause of freedom for the Negro peoples of the world must be nurtured in our mind as leaders; his uncompromising attitude before the court and jury of "Pontius Pilate," his declaration before them that the black race has its nobility and artistryocracy which it must uphold, are and will indeed echo and reverberate imperishably across the border are through his successive generations of the race to the unborn positivity! SPECIAL NOTICE TO DIVISIONS IN VIRGINIA Certain Licenses and Chapters of Eastern Virginia are named themselves into a union or league, known as, or to be known as the "Tidewater Union." This union is booked 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 and support from said illegal union, and use their influence to distand same forthwith. Further, all other Divisions and Chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are also warned and instructed to disland allagues and unions organized among themselves without the written consent of the Parent Body forthwith, and are expected to attempt no such action, or to take no part in any such effort without the written consent of the Parent Body. SECRETARY-GENERAL. Universal Negro Improvement Association SPECIAL WARNING In view of the fact that many persons are representing themselves as being sent out by the Universal Negro Improvement Association but bearing no credentials, take warning that In the future "no person or persons must be entertained without having in their possession proper credentials signed by the President-General and Secretary-General of the Association." Only these signatures must be recognized. By order of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. On October 31 the Binghamville Division of the U. N. L. A. met in one of its monthly drives to swell the membership of the division. The audience was the largest seen in Liberty Hall for many months and was a representative gathering. After the devotional exercises by the chaplain the president, Mr. Hedgman, announced Mr. Robt. Bonnale as the first of the three speakers selected to speak on the occasion. Mr. Bonnale's speech has an instructive-as it was interesting. He said in part: "If we great and harmful consequences in the neglect of parents and guardians to train their children in the doctrines of the U.N.I.A. The success of the move depends upon the training of the children in the principles of the association. If this movement should fall, our children will not be chastened with whips as we are, but with scorpions." He appealed to the fathers and mothers to testify into the minds of the young ones a love for race and liberty. Mr. John Williamson was then presented to the audience. Mr. Williamson spoke on the subject, "Love," which he handled in a very creditable manner and along racial lines. One could tell that this speaker was interesting the audience by the marked attention which they paid to his address. Dr. Mr. P. Willis, the third speaker, was then introduced to the audience. The doctor spoke with a great deal of earnestness as he impressed upon the members the necessity of having a comfortable building where the race could meet to receive inspiration and instruction. Our people would not find it necessary to go elsewhere to seek inspiration and amusement. Dr. Willis is a fluent speaker who holds without effort the attention of his audience, and he is the pride of Bluefields. After the closing remarks of the president and the sking of the offering the meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian anthem. VICTORIA LAS TUNAS Division No. 623 is doing useful work in the spreading of the propaganda of the U. N. L. A. and in bringing Negroes together. If the division is now in a position to report progress, we owe it to Dr. H. Sully, a loyal and true-hearted man in the cause of Africa. We do not intend to burden ourselves with barcodes who will retard our progress. We have elected new officers, whose names are as follows: G. S. Barnes, president; J. C. Thomas, first vice-president; Mrs. J. E. Barnes, lady president; Mrs. M. A. Ditters, first lady vice-president; Mrs. Agnes James, treasurer; Mr. A. G. Brown, executive secretary; R. H.

"WILLING WORKERS OF PHILADELPHIA DIVISION In the Philadelphia division, the auxiliary known as the "Willing Workers" is made up of a body of women members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and actively connected with this branch. They are silkers (belters and ardent workers, who spare no pains in taking care of the unyed members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and of the "race." The chairman is Mrs. Susan Dillard; who is respected and loved by all, thereby making co-operation in this particular auxiliary easy and the work a pleasure. As proof of some of the work already done, we shall cite the recent case of James R. Miller of Chasefield, South Carolina. After his release the "Willing Worker," as is the custom, took up the personal side and made sure that he was well supplied with food, clothes and furniture. Another proof of the serviceableness of this auxiliary is the case of Henry Thorn, 112 Millin Street, of this city, who, with his wife and eight children, was driven from the above address by a hand of "white hoodlums." This case was taken up by the organization and fought to a successful finale. As with Miller, it was with Thorn. The family was fed, clothing and furniture collected from various members was given to them. This division is making rapid strides and promises greater possibilities in the next administrative term. REPORTER CENTRAL FRANCISCO, CUBA The members of this division are determined, in spite of the difficulties which have to be surmounted, to keep up with the fight and build up a division which will be second to none in Cuba. On the evening of October 20 a new meeting was held, and was presided over by our second vice-president Mr. S. Pitken. The meeting was opened in the usual way, and a very interesting program, consisting of songs, solos and recitations, was presented. Our worthy chaplain gave a very interesting talk, which deeply affected the audience and gave them food for thought." Mr. S. Crossdell was the next speaker called upon to say a few words to the audience. He drew attention to the fact that today we have better and more opportunity than twenty years ago and that this was due in large measure to the determined stand taken by the association of associations. All of the addresses were heartily applauded by the audience and a pleasant and profitable evening was spent by the members of the division. C. O.

The division met at the Symphony Hall, Sunday, Nov. 4, when an interesting meeting was staged. The speaker of the session was Mrs. Virginia Fitch Turner, who delivered an inspiring and forward address. Her subject was "Working Together" which she handled in a majesty manner, stressing the value of united action. Rev. L. C.

Bet yon FF oa Un capafol, sopespado de haber compuesto un hecho de sangre y detenido en una carol americana, ha hecho declaraciones concreta acusando a la policía de brutalidades sublevantes. En su decisión de obtener a toda trono un confesión de Ricardo Luestres los detectives, se fun la declaración del detenido, gotpearlo salviamente, causando lesiones tan serias que le tuvieron casi inconsciente por dos dias. Como detalle revelador, Lustres refirió a nuestro representante que uno de los mismos polícias sintiço indignado por lo barbaro del tratamiento que se daba al preso. Labor de un Gran Educacionista de la Raza—El Centro Docente de Turkegee un Monumente del Genio y de la Abilidad de Booker T. Washington—Grandeza del Hombre en las Ideas Realizadas y No en la Critica—Africa Necesita Mas Educacionistas y Menos Criticos—La Raza Debe Honrar el Propósito de Dicho Centro Docente No es un caso nuevo. No se trata de un atropelo cometido contra un español, contra un extranjero a quien no ampara la ley tan ampliamente como a un nacional. Lustres ha pasado por las misinas prácticas que constituyen el famoso "tercer grado" aplicado indistintamente, según se afirma, por los detectives en el país entero. El procedimiento parece definitivamente adotado por algunos policías, para obtener de sus interrogados las confesiones que esperan lograr. Y el hecho, denunciado por los diarios americanos reiteradamente, se repite a despecho de todo con una reguidad realmente desconcertante. En mi viaje por el sur de los Estados Unidos, como director de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, consideré parte de mi deber el visitar el Instituto de Tuskegee, en el estado de Alabama, el gran centro docente fundado por la mas grande personalidad de nuestro elemento en esta parte del globo, Booker T. Washington, en pro de la educación industrial y del adelanto de la raza. El Instituto de Tuskegee es una obra que refleja el alto crédito en un hombre que luchó, sufrió y murió sin haber sido debidamente entendido y meritoriamente gratificado. En el caso de Luestres, como en el caso del filipino Luzado, la situación se hace más dolorosa por la condición de los supliciados, extrafios al medio, acorralados por extranjeros en una hora de angustia y sometidos a la barbaritades y atropellos que, en sus propios paises, habían sido imposibles o, al menos, producirían un correctivo inmediato al denunciarse. Con todo cuanto se haya dicho en pro y en contra del gran fundador, ante mi se levanta éste como el ser mas abil de la raza nacido en suelo americano, y a excepción de Touissant L'Ouverture, libertador de Haiti, el caracter mas prominente en el hemisferio occidental. El compararle con otros que se denominan intelectualidades de la raza, es comparar un gigante roble con la mala hierba; aquél fue el iniciador y constructor de la institución educativa e industrial mas importante de la raza en los tiempos modernos; estos han sido los fundadores de discordia y no han hecho otra cosa que hablar de su inteligencia con la vanidad del pitre, tratando de atraer la atención del vulgar y del poco pensador. Hasta ahora, sin embargo, nada ha llegado a causar una radical y definitiva intervención de las autoridades para poner fin a la aplicación del "tercer grado." Y la odiosa practica, el salvaje despliegue de barricar por parte de los detectives que olvidan la verdadera y alta misión del policía, para convertirse en torturadores inquisitoriales, sigue casi ante la sanción oficial. Ante tal situación, en el caso de un español sometido a ellos atropellos, aparte de la acción judicial y legal abierta a todo ciudadano y que el espíritu de los codigos de justicia de este pueblo acepta sinduña plenamente, se impone la intervención de los representantes de España en Nueva York y en Washington. No puede dejarse que se siiente el precedente de que un español puede ser atormentado impunemente, contra todo derecho y toda justicia, sin que los que deben velar por sus derechos le defendan resueltamente. Los representantes de España en este país deben investigar a fondo lo que haya de verdad en las declaraciones hechas por Lustres. Y si son exactos, elevar inmediatamente la protesta ante quien corresponda. Lo contrario seria acertar taicentamente la licitud de estos procedimientos. Y dejar para el porvenir a los españoles aquí residentes, a merced de los desafuores de functionarios que se extralimitaran en su cometido. La memoria y el nombre de Booker T. Washington, el constructor e iniciador, vivirá por siempre en la mente de nuestra raza, pues nadie podrá mirar al gran monumento, el Instituto de Tuskegee, sin dejar notar en él la revelación de los sacrificios y de las dificultades de aquella gran inteligencia industrial. Al crear su obra impercledra nunca critico sino que constituyó, apelando asidiosamente a la consideración de las necesidades humanas y por medio de una aplicación práctica de este amor humano, atrajo hacia el al rico y al pobre, quieness con su cooperación fortificaron esta gran obra de construcción, tan necesaria para la raza. Preguntadme lo que Booker T. Washington ha hecho por la raza y os significaré los espaciosos acres de terreno del Instituto de Tuskegee con un hermoso sistema de educación para la nueva generación de nuestra raza, en donde un cuerpo eficiente de profesores prepara a los miembros progresistas hacia un grado mas alto de vida en el desarrollo de la diseminada Etiopia. Podré indicaros además, los centenares de hogares felices en America y en otras partes del globo, posibilidades por su labor y sus enseñanzas en menos de medio siglo. Habla el N. Y. World No hy sido aún revelado si la visita oficial del general Leonardo Wood a las antillas holandesas tendrá el carácter de un viaje educativo de una misión de cortesia. Existen otras escuelas donde podrá más provechosamente buscar lecciones de méjores procedimientos administrativos coloniales. La política holandesa no ha sido preparada con el objetivo de estimular a los nativos al gobierno propio, o a la educación y progreso racial. Comenzaron, bajo el dominio extranjero, con el status de una raza atrasada y no han sido estimulados a avanzar más allá de esa situación. Si me preguntáis acerca de las realizaciones de los intellectuales de la raza, he de indicaros la critica viciosa hacia hombres con mas ability y determinación para ejecutar, mientras ellos se vanaglorian de la sociabilidad con tal o cual blanco en tal o cual hotel 6 mansión, cuya compañía hechan de menos mas tarde. Booker T. Washington fue una bendición para nuestra raza; estos han sido una aflicción y una maldición. Si tuvieramos centenares de constructores, cuando simplemente hemos tenido uno, nuestra raza hubiera dejado de sufrir mucho tiempo ha. Necesitamos al presente hombres del carácter y ability de aquel gran iniciador para que reconstruyendo a la madre patria, esta pueda aportar al mundo su nuevo óbolo de civilización. En sus viajes el general Wood podria adquirir valiosa instrucción sobre lo que debe no hacerse si los declarados propósitos de los Estados Unidos en las Filipinas han de ser alcanzados. No fuiimos al archipiélago con la intención expresa de explotarlo para el beneficio de los residentes o capitalistas extranferiros, y no lo hemos conservado por un cuarto de siglo con el propósito ostensible de convertirlo en una empresa comercial. Todavía proclamamos nosotros que los filipinos van a ser preparados para el gobierno propio y la independencia, aunque a veces hemos tenido razones para poner en duda la pura de nuestras intenciones. De todos modos, el general Wood ha encontrado motivos para enfriar el ardor de los nativos por la liberación de la dependencia extranjera y, aunque sin exito, sus instrucciones recibidas de Washington no le concedieron pretexto alguno para procer contra sus propias inclinaciones. La aprobación del secetario Weeks es una justificación tan completa como pudiera descar. Existen aun espacio y oportunidades para muchos Booker T. Washington; tal vez no necesitaremos muchos mas Tuskegees en America, pero si necesitamos centenares de ellos en el continente africano; roguemos por consiguiente con gran fervor al Creador para que nos provea con el suficiente número de caracteres de tal naturaleza. Necesitamos iniciadores y constructores para la madre patria y no vanidosos ycriticos maliciosos; necesitamos elementos que honren a su sangre y a su raza y no individuos inconformes con su ansestría, los cuales glorifican la impropia mezcla accidental con los explotadores del resto de la familia humana. El ver el gran monumento, el Instituto de Tuskegee, es elevar a su fundador a la altura de los dioses; el pensar en las intelectualidades de la raza es descender a un mundo de pigmeos en busca de compañía. Como presidente general de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, apelo a los miembros de la organización y a la raza en general, para que en prueba de reconocimiento honremos el nombre de Booker T. Washington, el educador, el iniciador, el genio, el constructor, el hombre. Con el mejor deseo, por vuestro éxito, tengo el honor de ser vuestro obediente servidor. No obstante, en las antillas holandesas varia como la paz y el orden y el desarrollo comercial son amparados por la autoridad superior, sin ayuda o interventión de los legisladores nativos o sus functionarios. Bien que funcione no o a su entera satisfacción, no podrá dejar de reconocer que es demasiado tarde para pedir prestado el sistema colonial holandesas paga implantarla ahora por nosotros en Manila. Resolución No. 24, de veintiinte de septiembre de mil novocientos veintitres, por la cual se concede un permiso. Vistos: El señor Rev. R. N. Whittaker, Presidente de la División No. 44 de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra y Liga de Comunidades Africanas, en memorial de fecha veinticimo del presente, pide que se le permita teter meetings y reuniones en the Distrito para el beneficio de la referida asociación, compremetiéndose a observer y respatar los Decretos y Reglamentos que el Gobierno ha dictado y dicte en lo sucesivo, y para resolver este asunto se considera: 1. Que según decreto del senor Alcalde del Distrito de fecha diez de agosto de mil novecientos veintidos, los meetings que tengan lugar al aire libre con armas y uniformes militares, que provoquen con estas insignias sublevación en la clase obrera, quedan terminetemente prohibidos. 2. Que siendo la U. F. Co, propriaria de vastos terrenos que ha comprido a la Nación, constituyendo de esta manera titulo que le da derecho para prohibir en su propiedad cualquier reunion que tienda a intermurir su tranquilidad y reglamentos de la misma, derechos que el suscriente tiene que hacer respetar. 3. Que aunque es cierto que el párrafo 5 del referido decreto no permite sino reuniones de esta clase en la ciudad cabecera con permiso del suscriente, lugar en el cual puede vigilarse muy bien por la policía las reuniones de esta naturaleza; 4. Que el memorialista en representación de la referida. Asociación se compromete a verificar dichas reuniones con un carácter enteramente pacífico, extendiendo inimicable su radio de acción a hacer la progana pasiva en beneficio de la Asociación. Se resuelve: 1. Concedidase permiso al senor Rev. R. N. Whittaker para que pueda celebrar meetings de reuniones en el Distrito, que tiendan al menesivo y encalizamiento de la raza que representa, siempre y cuando, observe en dichas reuniones todo lo que al respecto determinan y ordenan se cumplen los artículos 900 a 907 del Codigo Administrativo, permiso este que otorga de conformidad con lo prescrito en la Constitución de la República, en sus artículos 17 y 18 de la misma. 2.

Estado Caótico en Alemania Las turbas hambrientas se sublevaron de nuevo en Berlin. Muchos establecimientos furon sapiedados. No obstante el llamamiento de la policía al público, este se negó a apoyar a las autoridades contra los amotinados. Una persona fue muerta y varias quedaron heridas en los tumultos de Pirma, en el corazón de los campos carboniferos de Sajonia. La policía hizo fuego sobre los amotinados. El gobierno de Dresdert ha sometido la controversia con el Reichswer a la corte suprema de Leipzig. La situación de Berlin aumenta en tension por momentos. Más de cien personas han sido arrestadas en las ultimas horas, acutadas de tumultuaries. Noticias llegadas del Rhin dicen que los separatistay se habían apoderado de las prensa de inprimir papel un medida y estaban inprimiendo sus propios valores y que el conisario aliado del distrito habia obligado a las susursales basanarias a acepturlos como legítimos. Las noticias recibidas hoy del grente bavaro indican que ha disminuido el peligro de una marcha sobre Berlin por los fasestas bavaros. El almirante von Scheer, excomandante de la flota alemana, que habia enviado a la frontera de Turingia a investigar la posibilidad de una "invasión bavara", informa Se que como clerto que una ver que los nacionalistas hayan entrado en el gabinete, los socialistas pedirian que se llevara a cabo una sesión plenaria on the Enlighstag y presentarian immediatamente una resolución en la cual se diera un voto de censura al gobierno. Se Intenta Penetrar de Nuevo en al Tumba del Faraón Son serias las dificultades para recamar los trabajos en la tumba del rey Tutt-ank-hamen, que los egiptólogos dejaron defendida obstruyendo su entrada eon mil seiscientas toneladas de barro y piedra. La mano de obra es muy escasa, y Luxor, la célébre ciudad, está aun anegada por la última inundación del Nilo. Howard Carter espera poder penetrar de nuevo en la camara donde reposa la montia del faraón desde hace tres mil años. Las operaciones iniciadas hace días para recamar los trabajos en la tumba del rey Faraon Tutt-ank-hamen quedaron suspendidas de nuevo a causa del litigio existente entre los representantes de todos los periodicos extranjeros. Howard Carter, egipiologo que tiene ahora a su cargo los trabajos de excavación salio precipitadamente para el Cairo con el fin de ponerse de acuedo con las autoridades sobre el derecho que quieren irrogarse los periodistas para estar presentes cada vez que se vaya a hacer algún nuevo, descubrimiento. Carter desca que solo el periodico que ha comprado los derechos de publicación, sea el que asista a todos sus actos y trabajos. El gobierno egipcio, por más puede ha prometido a los demás representantes de periodicos que tomara en consideración su deseo y hara que diariamente se publique un leoletin. En caso de que no se apreuebe la exclusiva vendida, Carter se retirará. Informacion General REQUISITOS NECESARIOS PARA SER MIEMBRO DE LA "ASOCLACION UNIVERSAI PARA EL ADELANTO DE LA RAZA NEGRA."

IMPLAINT DEPARTMENT al Negro Improvement Ass The President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, on his tour of the nation, has been approached by hundreds of loyal members and well-wishers of the Association in complaints against, the treatment they have received from several of the various departments of the Organization at headquarters, and from individual officers and employees at headquarters, as also against the conduct of certain Executive Officers whilst on the field. The President-General is grieved of the many complaints and hereby begs to announce that a Complaint Department is now established and attached to his office. All persons having complaints to make against any department officer or employee of the Organization will please write to COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT P. 3. If you love the Organization and desire to see it improve the service to the race, then you will not fall to report any irregularity in the part of officials officers and employees of the Organization, caring not whom the person be if he or she has done anything improper or unconstitutional report. It. If you have any complaints send them in, new and don't wait until it is too late. Come Clean Oh, the white man, he is a great propagandist. He is a smart and slick fellow, and you have to take off your hat to him. Believe me, he is worthy of himself; he is worthy of his character. Blame him not for it, but blame youselves for your ignorance in allowing the other fellow, created, in the same mould as yourself, to put it over you. He was smart enough to put it over my father and grandfather, but, brother, you will have to come clean now to put it over me. (Anplause.) Men, let us come back to our sober senses. There is, I say, but one solu- tion of this problem. To contemplate J. D. Rockefeller giving up the oil fields of Oklahoma or Texas to the Negro race; to contemplate the Carnegie trust giving up the coal fields and iron of Pennsylvania to the black race; to contemplate the white people of this country giving up this country; with all its mineral resources to a minority group is to expect the impossible. But God did not forget us and did not leave us unprovided for. While He created the oil fields of Oklahoma and Texas, the coal and iron fields of Pennsylvania in the United States, he did not forget to create the oil fields of Timubuctu. Africa: He did not forget to create the iron fields of Nigeria, the Cameroons and Togo Land; He did not forget to create the diamond fields of Kimberly and the gold fields of the Gold Coast of West Africa. Therefore, we are glad that we have an equitable division of the spoils of the world. The white man says America with its wonderful resources is for the white man; we declare that Africa with its mineral and agricultural resources is for the black man. And we have a fair and honest proposition—half for you and half for me. That is all we ask for, and somebody is crazy if he thinks he is going to keep Europe and Africa The Old. Old Game Believe me, the Frenchman is trying to play the old camouflage game of the British. The British played that game of colonization for hundreds of years, and got away with hundreds of millions of acres and millions of square miles in Africa—South Africa, Central Africa and North Africa. They got away with it, and the French are endeavoring to play the same game. They have got away with French colonial possessions in Africa, twenty times as large as France in Europe. Imagine it, gentlemen, you black men of America, fifteen millions, and you black men of the West Indies, over ten millions, you black men of South and Central America, over twenty millions, remaining here for over eighty years since emancipation, and over three hundred years since our contact with Western civilization, and allowing a handful of men to rob and ravish our country, the land of your fathers. Imagine forty-five million Frenchmen remaining in Europe and holding colonial possessions twenty times as large as their country. Or imagine Belgium with seven million men, insignificant as she is, holding possessions in Africa, one thousand times as large as Belgium in Europe, and controlling nearly forty million men. Imagine that, and you will see the condition of the Negro, the sleeping backward condition of the Negro. It is from that sleep that the U. N. I. A is endeavoring to awgken four hundred millions of the world, and like Rip Van Winkle, when we are awakened from that sleep, what a tale would be told if somebody has not returned to his sober senses. If Poincaré takes the advice of a foolish Negro, he will give up his scheme and plan of colonial expansion in Africa, because he is going to make Frenchmen sorry one of these days, if they continue to pursue the object he has in view. If Musolini would take the advice of a lone and foolish black man, and stop his program in Africa, he would be wise. I say, that somebody is crazy if he thinks he can everlastingly keep that Negro down. It cannot be done, it cannot be done. Facing the Problem It is well that we face the question: to go well we face the problem. The problem must be answered, the problem must be solved; because the Negro should go home to tell God, or he should go plain why. Yes, we are ready. Because we have been commanded the world; we have been commanded the world to go past, and we are commanded the football of the world. We are tired, and we are weary, the because we are tired and weary, the fall has no burrow, the grave has no drown men, for the New Morrow, we are determined to take his place in the world, and to hold it until thy kingdom come. (Apphamp.) Tell me that I must turn back, and I laugh you to scorn and despair. Turn Seek from the sacred dows of liberty; turn back from the sacred cause of freedom, turn back from the cause of humanity, democracy, and I will laugh at you, my friends, for the terrible mistake, that you make believing that men will turn back in the twentieth century. Monkeys, and dogs, and cows and mules, but not men, not men. This question also I want you to answer tonight, whether you are men or not. Oh, my fellow Negroes, how many of us believe, that we are men that we are not something else. It is not every fellow who wears a suit of clothes and who walks around in a real man. Any monkey can do that. Man is a fellow with character, a fellow who has faith and confidence in himself and in his God. That is a man. Man is a creature who refuses to bow before another human being. (Applause.) Man is a creature who refuses to create false gods, because, the moment you accept the superiority of another human being, you have accepted the power of a new god. And there is but one God, God the Father, the God of Heaven, who is no respector of persons. That God who loves all mankind, and who loves white humanity, red humanity, and black humanity alike. That God who has placed man here without color or creed, as the lord of his creation, not a beggar in his creation, not a porter in his creation, not a farmhand in his creation, but Lord of His Creation. And I want you to realize, therefore, that the blame we put on the white man, the blame we put on God, is unreasonable. We say that the white man is responsible for our difficulties. It is a life, a damnable life! We say that God has forgotten us and is responsible for our condition. It is a lie, and is a sin against God and the Holy Ghost. God is not responsible for our physical condition, nor is the white man responsible; you are responsible for your condition. (Applause.) God never made bankers; God never made shoe, blacks; he never made beggars; he made man, and man selected his own job. If you want to be a beggar, that's your job; if you want to be a shoe black, that's your job; if you want to be a banker, that's your job; if you want to be president of the P. R. R., that's your job; if you want to be President of the United States, that's your job. Blame Yourselves So if you haven't got a job, don't blame the white man, and don't blame God, but blame yourselves. I want you to realize this, the philosophy may sound strange, and some of you may not agree with me, but we of the U. N. I. A. believe in the dual lives of man. We believe that man has two lives—the spiritual and the physical. The spiritual life is God, the physical life is yours. God takes care of the spiritual life, and when you are weak and in need of strength, you pray to Him, and he gives you grace and strength, but when the physical life is weak, Negro, if you have sense, you will go out and supply it with what it needs. Negro, if you want three square meals a day, you better not sit down here and talk about praying to God, but go out and work for it. Negroes, if you want comfortable homes to live in, money, property, material strength and progress, do not worry God about it, but go about and get it for yourselves. (Appeal.) God of Love Some of us handle this problem of life as if God was some politician or some economist or some large employment agent, whom, if we want a job we take up our telephone and ask Him to give us that job. We would look upon that God as a God of inequalities, a God of injustice. If you would expect Him to make a man just to be a beggar or a worker on the farm, or a show black, while He makes another man to be a banker, or President. He would be an unfair God, a cousin of John D. Rockefeller and a stranger to Marcus Garvey. There is no such God, a God of inequality; there is but one God—a God of Love, who, as I said, is no respecter of persons. That God loves John D. Rockefeller as he loves Marcus Garvey. He gave them both the same number of senses, the same physical body, the same faculties and intelligence to make themselves men. He gave, to black men the same faculties and the same senses as He gave to white men to make themselves masters and progressive peoples of the world. Think and Then Act And that is why I am calling upon you men and women in Washington, in Amarita, the Negro peoples of the world, to think, think, and then act. Ah, that word think, you have to say it. Among Negroes, I hardly believe one per cent. do ask, thinking. I do not believe even that one per cent think anything except about getting up at 8 o'clock every morning, getting a hearty breakfast, and talking about lunch time, dinner time or supper time, or having a good time at midnight and going to bed. This is most of the thinking the majority of us Negroes do. We will, therefore, get no further than our belles if we think that way. The white man, the great white man, has divided up his day into certain periods, and he has a time for everything. A time for eating, a time for dancing and a time for thinking. And he is not satisfied to leave part of that time for the majority of the people, but he has selected a certain part of it, during which he thinks, and that is most of the time, from sixteen to twenty hours a day. The Williams, the Bryans, the Balfour, among the Anglo-Saxon Policnare, Clemenceau and Briand of the French; the Kates and Jabils among the Japanese—they all think from sixteen to twenty hours a day. Negroes how many hours do we think? You will find on our first dancing us to who two hours of the morning daily you will find in our meetings up to the war season of the months! Which a sure that movie always shows the own form. If we must rise, we must stop to think, and our thoughts must be independent throughs. (Applause.) We long as you and I continue to think in terms of any other race we shall be slaves to that other man. So long as we accept the philosophy of another race we shall be the slaves of that other race. Negroes, the poor has sturk for you to advance and present your own philosophy to the world; the hour has sturk for you to develop your own thoughts and give them to the world. And that is the function of the U. N. J. A. the organization that I have the honor to represent. No Hats in Program If we can succeed in emancipating the mind of men, we have made them free. If the mind of man is shackled, he is still a slave. I prayed God to give you the sight and the vision, to give you the intelligence to interpret the program of the U. N. I. A., realizing that the program is not one to offend others. It is not one of hate. We of the U. N. I. A. I repeat and emphasize do not preach hate, but we preach the love of humanity. We desire peace and because of that we are advising our erring brothers to return to their sober sense and to realize that we are all children of one common father; that we all belong to one great, big, human family, and that each and every one of us has the right to life, to liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Happiness and life and liberty were not intended for the white man and the yellow man, but also for the black man, and anyone who tries to deny them to the black man is flying in the face of God, for God has His time for everything, and He will not fail to work out in His time His plan for the human race, for His creation and for His creative purpose. God inspired the psalmist or someone else, who said and declared that "Princes shall come out of Egypt, and Ethiopia shall stretch out her hands." Neither Marcus Garvey nor the white man can keep that time back. It is bound to happen, bound to come, and it is coming now. A Clearer Vision Therefore we cannot send it to jail, nor can we, send it to an untimely grave, because the power is God's. So I say to you friends, those who were glad, at the incarceration of Marcus Garvey, that you, have not offended Marcus Garvey one bit. He feels as happy in jail as out of it. (Applause) Marcus Garvey is working for the cause of human liberty, and he does not care where he goes—up or down. He is willing to go and answer the call at any moment, even at midnight. Marcus Garvey has no regrets for what he has done. He sees now with a clearer vision than ever he saw before. Marcus Garvey has before him the picture of a new world. Yea. I see before me a new spectacle. I see before me a new people, a new race and a new world. What is that? I see before me rising cities with their beautiful cathedral, with their beautiful public buildings, with their executive buildings; I see before me a vast throng of people going to and fro. Yea, what is the matter? There is great commotion. What is that? There is a mad rush toward that beautiful modern structure. What structure is that? It is the new parliament building. What is the noise about? It is a black man in the midst of a great organized and well disciplined throng of men, making his way towards a platform, an elevated stand. What is he there for? He is the President of the New African Republic, the United States of Africa, and he is about to issue a preclamation. "Free, Once and Forever" What is it? It is a proclamation of liberty, declaring free, once and forever, four hundred million black men and women. Yes, it is that proclamation that I hear read. I hear the language of peace and justice and merry to all mankind. What is that? It is the noise I hear of hells roaring, joyously the people are playing. What is the noise? Oh, I hear the cannot roar. What are they doing? They are riting a sailble for the departure of the first black ambassador of the United States of Africa to the United States of America. (Applause) Oh, the vision clears before me, and I see a people returning to their beautiful work and labor; I see the furnaces burning day and night; I see me engaged in their daily avocations, not a race of peons nor a race of serfs, but one of free men capable of rising from the lowest to the highest position in the new state created by a new people. Do not tell me that I must turn back. You must first destroy the vision. It has been said, somewhere, that where there is no vision the people perish, and surely we shall not perish today for the want of a new vision. The Greatest Democracy We shall look forward, forward to a better day, and before I close let me pay my compliments and my respect for this great country, America, the greatest democracy in the world, the greatest. Republic in the world, America, the greatest motion in the world for white men. (Applause.)

I am not sure of America, neither am I aware at the death. Now, I have some popular notions. I am a bit different from other folks and you will please him if my argument does not agree with the last argument of the other folks here. But I have a respect for America because of its honesty toward the Negro, because of America's ready desire to help a people struggling toward the achievement of higher things. When these people become a conscious of this and when these people know what they want, things will change. Our mistake, in America, is that up to now we do not know what we want. Up to now we are struggling for the impossible and for what is wrong. We are asking for the other fellow's job and he is not so foolish to give it to us. Ask for the chance and the opportunity to create a job for ourselves and I believe white men will be the first to lend a helping hand. But so long as you are asking him for his job you are crazy if you think he will accommodate you. I feel that the hour is set hand when the liberal-minded men of America will be the first to help the black man if he shows himself willing to work for his liberty. And that is what the U. N. I. A. is endeavoring to do, to ask the white peoples to give to Negroes what is belonging to Negroes and nothing more, but nothing less. And before I close again, let me pay a compliment to the Southern white man. I revere and respect the Southern white man because among all white men at the present time he is the most honest. Some of you will say, "Well, they say you are a member of the Ku Klux Klan." Can you imagine a black man being a member of the Ku Klux Klan? They associated me with the Ku Klux because I went and asked them about their attitude toward Negroes. They were honest enough to answer me and say that their sim was for a white supremacy so long as white and black people lived together. I respected them for their honesty in telling me what they meant by that, so that I would go out and look out for myself. Which of the men would you prefer? The fellow who would come and tell you. "You can come and see me at any time, come at the front door, or come at the back door." If I make the mistake of believing him, and if I go to his door one night, he comes out with somebody else and puts a rope around me. Or the other fellow, who says: "If you want to speak to me, speak in the street; but if you come near my house at any time he ready for what you get." Which do you prefer? That is why I prefer the Southern, white man. He tells you you can ride side the same one with him from New York to Washington or in the miph Pulaski; you cannot visit his home; you cannot drive with his family; you cannot drink a coke in his drug store, nor see you eat in his restaurant. I have more respect for him than for one who fatties me, telling me that I can do these things and when I attempt to do it, he acts differently. If I am, I lose my life, then give me time to prepare for my God. You know why. If the Negro is to be anything in the twentieth century, he will thank the Ku Klux Klan for driving I, to him the spirit of independence, racial pride and self-conceitfulness that will ultimately make us men and a nation. Immaterial So anything you want to call me is immaterial. If you want to call me a knight of the Ku Klux Klan, a knight of Columbus, or a Zionist, it is immaterial. I know what . . . want. I want freedom, a larger liberty; I want a real democracy, and any road that it takes to travel on that way I am prepared to take. I have to thank you very much, white and black alike, for the patience, with which you have listened to me, and I trust, you have at least to some extent come to an understanding of the work and aim of the U. N. I. A. God bless you. I thank you. CONGRATULATIONS At the close of the meeting the whole audience advanced to the rostrum, and there was a continuous round of hand-shakings' and congratulations and wishes for success. Meeting terminated with the singing of an anthem, "Good Night," by the East Washington Male Chorus, and the singing of the national anthems of the association and of America. Benediction by the chapain then followed. The committee responsible for the meeting consisted of Mr. Lionel L. Oxley executive secretary; D. J. F. Smith, general secretary; Miss Louise V.

The following is a report of our Sunday afternoon meeting at Liberty Hall which was well attended by members and friends of the division. The meeting was called to order by our worthy presider after which the opening age was sung, followed by prayer by the chaplain. A selection by the choir followed a few remarks of the president, who turned the singing over to Mrs. Josephine Terrel, lady president. The first speaker was the Rev. Williams, who took as his subject "Where There Is Unity There Is Strength." He spoke convincingly on the subject and his discourses was both interesting and instructive. A varied program-consisting of songs, recitations and readings was rendered and highly appreciated by the audience. The president, Mr. B. Hale, then introduced Mr. T. Nmaa Bll of Liberia, West Africa. The speaker chained the audience with his subject, "Out of Egypt." His address was inspiring and full of information. After the lifting of the offering the meeting was brought to a close. At the meeting held at 8 p. m. another large number of friends and members turned out. After the meeting was opened in the usual way the president called upon Mr. Perry Love, second vice-president, for a few remarks. We were favored with a visit from Mr. Harry Mayponyane, of South Africa, who delivered a very eloquent address Mr. Mayponyane is an able speaker and told us many wonderful and interesting Every Man Who Has Force of You Scientist Makes Wonderful Disco Years Shou Every Man Who Has Lost the Vital Force of Youth May Be Restored The difficulty encountered by the medical world has been to find the right invigilator who can be perfectly harmless; inexpensive, and can be taken in the privacy of the home.

As a compensation to the Hon.
