England Changing Hands in Government Conservative, monarchical, aristocratic England is gradually losing her high-toned political policy, and at the same time falling into the hands of the man lowest down. We will, therefore, expect in a short while to hear that England has become a new social republic, for the working man's feelings is the same the world over; and if we are to judge from the attitude of others there is no reason why we cannot conclude that the monarchy is passing away. Working Man to the Front As of the change in England, so may we calculate for it all over the world. It is this kind of change that is going to give the Negro his day, out of which he will evolve a new order in society, even as the English working man is about to take the place of the Tory Lord. The Laborites who have won such a signal victory in the last English election were able to do so through organization. There was once upon a time when the Laborite was a lone voice in the Parliament of England. Today he forms His Majesty's opposition in government. In like manner, we hope that the Universal Negro Improvement Association will so perfect organization and stick by its principles that in another decade or two we also will be able to boast of the kind of accomplishment that will standardize the race and justify the effort of today. Labor Party Scores The great Labor Party of England was not built up in a day, a month, or a year, but for several decades its leaders fought their way, battling against strong and terrible opposition, until they have reached the coveted position they now occupy in British politics. A similar struggle lies in the course of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but as the Labor Party was prepared, so are we. We are going to fight our way on and on, until we have BREAKING THE WAY FOR A MORE LIBERAL WORLD The Negro Sees Signs of a Great Opportunity and Chance Keep Organized and Fight Our Battles and We Are Bound to Win Universal Negro Improvement Association in the Politics of the World succeeded in strengthening our race for the great battle of racial preservation. The Vision of the Future Those of us who have the vision of the future have absolutely no doubt in our minds that the principles and aims of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will triumph. In fact, we realize the truth that strong and integral parts of the race are now unitedly working for the consummation of the idea, and with the satisfaction of minor accomplishments before us we need have no fear that the future will bring about the realization of the bigger things. Fighting Steadily On Let us therefore fight steadily on. Our whole hearted desire is to see the race emancipated economically and politically. Before this can be achieved, we must lay the proper foundation which is quietly being done by this organization of ours. We are further advanced in the politics of the world today than we were a year ago. We are better considered not only by individuals but by race groups and nations than we were years ago. Everybody who is thinking, realizes that the destiny of the Negro lies through the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We shall unitedly therefore march toward destiny: Be Not Discouraged Be not discouraged with the barriers and the handicaps laid in the way. These are naturally but stepping stones to the achievement of greater things. Let us take new courage as well FIRST EDITION GOING FAST THE BOOK AND OPINIONS OF SEND FOR YOUR COPY NOW as firm confidence in our effort, and let us be inspired through the achievement of the Labor Party in England and the Labor forces all over the world. The ascendency of labor in politics will bring about a new political order which cannot be as senseless as the one to which they succeed. The Politics of the World When we contemplate the politics of the different political machineries that now govern the world we can conclude in no other way than that they are senseless in their acts and attitude because out of their action comes nothing else but war and rumors of war. Labor may have enough sense to know that the best course it could adopt toward its own prosperity is to be fair and friendly to all human groups. We would not contemplate labor going out to fight other peoples for the adventurous exploitation could not think of Ramsey McDonald as Premier of England declaring war against native Africans who seek to protect their native rights, but we would expect it of David Lloyd George or an Arthur J. Balfour, who represent the Tory element and the capitalistic crowds of their country. Let us have more of labor in government and we will naturally have a better human consideration in dealing with the affairs of the world. We are glad of the downfall, therefore, of the Tory Government of England. We also rejoice when other monopolist political organizations tumble down to be succeeded by the control of that element of the people who know what human love is, who know what justice is. Working for the Right As members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Negro race, let us continue to work as assiduously as the Laborites did in England for years, for indeed our time will come when we ourselves will be the rulers and shapers of our own destiny. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be, Your obedient servant, MARCUS GARVEY, President-General, UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSN. NEW YORK, December 11, 1923. On the Other Hand, a Negro Writer Believes That Negroes Should be Taught to Measure Up to Meriting the Concessions Made Them by Other People By AMY JACQUES-GARVEY I have heard many solutions to what is commonly called the race problems, but the most malicious one, as coming from white men, is the re-enslaving of Negroes in America. About a year ago my husband (Marcus Garvey), in a public address, warned his pararens that if the Negro race did not make plans for its future existence, the day was not far distant when the white man would make efforts to re-enslave Negroes. Some of the "professional critics" laughed at him, and said it was hot air talk; no white man would even dare to think that way in this present civilization, this highly developed period. But here are two white thinkers, Measra, Menken and Nathan, the retiring editor of the Smart Set Magazine, advocating the re-enslaving of the Negro, as a relief from the slaves he now suffers as a citizen. The Smart Set is called the aristocrat among magazines, therefore, it is well for all of us to know the kind of propaganda that is being disseminated among the class of white people who read this monthly aristocrat. The following appears in the December issue under the caption "The Crime of January 1, 1863"; "The present parous condition of the late Confederate States, with the native blackameurs emigrating to the rolling mills, illicit distilleries and jazpapes of the North by the Hundred thousand, will probably give some of the sustaining proponents of the old deities that chattel slavery was economically sound. Was it indeed? Then try to imagine Georgia under chattel slavery, getting into the appalling economic condition that it labors under today. One of the leading bankers of the State is authority for the estimate that the departure of field-hands will cost its cotton growers $20,000 this year. Certainly they will be under slavery. The slave may have been an indifferent workman, but" he at least did some work. The truth is that the plan of romedying the acknowledged evils of slavery by abolishing it altogether was as ex-ravagant and imprudent as the plan of cutting off a man's head to cure his headache. As a matter of historical fact, it was not adopted with any such nonexistent intention; it was adopted simply as a device for harassing and punishing the confederates. Unluckily, it set a president which still harms and punishes all of us. . . . If, as was widely held at the time chattel slavery was full of detections, then the obvious remedy was to search them out and remove them. Most of them had been detected and cured nearly 1,500 years before by the Romans of the empire—for example, the custom which allowed a slave-owner to separate a slave family. A few simple reforms of that sort, most of which would have been supported by the overwhelming majority of Southerners, and the slaves would have peased to fret under the bondage. As everyone knows, the complete freedom that was so audacious for the slaves allowed them almost unanimously, and brought upon them a host of woes. Before ten years had come and gone, the white Southerners, in self-defense, had to take their liberty away from them again by extra legal devices—this setting another evil precedent. In most parts of rural Georgia today the black field-hands is almost as much slave Sufferers From Indigestion of Stomach Trouble. CUT THIS OUT. "Stomach trouble, dyspnea, indigestion, journure, gas, heartburn, food fermentation, vomiting, irritate, in ten by chronic acid stomach," says a well known authority. Burning hydrochloric acid develops in the intestines as the acid irritates and infumes the delicate stomach lining and, often leads to gastritis accompanied by dangerous stomach acid that can damage the stomach with pepin or artificial digestives that only give temporary relief from pain by driving the oar, ferr. acids, or out of the stomach into the intestines. us his grandfather was on December 31, 1882. He is not permitted to exercise any of the common rights of citizenship, he is deprived of equality before the law, being denied a trial by his peers, and flow the alarmed cotton-growers are even trying to take away from him his right to free movement. The only right that remains to him is the right to acquire and hold property. This right was enjoyed by many of them now far richer than any Southern Aframerican is today. In addition these Roman slaves got honest justice in the courts, and many of them were permitted to travel. The free Aframerican is thus worse off than they were. More important still, his vain efforts to obtain his theoretical rights have caused him to be disliked intensely; the Roman slave was popular; and often rose to positions of public aminance. These blacks moor shiver when they hear the word SLAVERY, though the thing itself would unquestionably rescue them from most of their current troubles. They are chained up in a tight railight with a pyre of fat pine-knots burning under them, than "slaves" in a comfortable cabin, with plenty of hog-meat in the smoke house and no tax bills to pay." This statement is brutally frank, but any one who knows anything about H. L. Mencken knows that he is one of the keenest minds of America, and one of the most outspoken of his group. Here are these two editors, Messrs. Mencken and Nathan, stating in plain language that the abolition of slavery was an extravagant and impudent act, and that the defects of slavery should have been remedied rather than have the institution abolished, and, finally, that if Negroes were re-enslaved it would rescue them from their present troubles. Perhaps these white men do not know that there are leaders in the Negro race today, who are not paid by white folks to be their addict. By the addition of the race to think and act for the race, and to the interest of the race, and that these leaders are determined to so work and plan that Negroes will not become so economically bankrupt that they will have to submit to enployment in order to exist. The idea is now to squeeze the Negroes out of jobs and fill those jobs with white immigrants from Europe. The Negro, after a few years, will find starvation staring him in the face; then slavery, in a modified form (modified to suit present-day civilization), will be offered to him as a relief for his condition. He will either have to accept the offer or starve and die. This is one of the plans of the thinking white people to deal with the Negro, and sometimes an outspoken member of the white race spills the beans and shows us in what direction the wind is blowing. The white men are flaring without these ideas, they are thinking and planning for the Negro of fifty years ago not for the Negro of 1914 F18 and of today. The Negro of fifty years ago might have been satisfied with a cabin and plenty of hog-meat, but this New Negro wants everything that the civilized, progressive white man wants. New Negro wants nice homes, and the means to protect them. He wants the bigges 'industrial' and political jobs in a nation. And since this New Negro knows that the white man has only such luxuries as a cabin and hog meat to offer him, he is planning and working toward establishing a government and a nation of his own, where he can satisfy his needs and ambitions as a MAN. If any re en ure, it is to be done, it won't be do to this progressive, forward-looking New Negro. Unfortunately a few of our writers are wickedly blind, and in the face of the attitude of the white man toward the race, they tell us of a better future, and sit with foiled ends waiting for the day to dawn. I came across a Negro newspaper published in a mid-western city in which a Negro writer states: "The white man has made many concessions that it was thought he would not make. What is needed is to teach the Negro to measure up to meriting the concessions he demand." "What concessions in the name of God, could the white man make the Negro that he did not merit? Can you imagine a Negro writing such nomenSES? Are we in America set of uncivilized barbarians? Or are we as civilized and Christianized as the white man in his western hemisphere? I hate to think that the weakling who would write such puny ret is a member of this noble坡 of gore, and it contaminates others with such psychological statements. I would like to know that the writers of the rose, in fact, that all Negro men are MEN, that they we women can feel proud of; that that can protect us and plan for; not that we have to apologize for, not that outflow of curvature of the spine and shaking base; or other words. "Mama, boss, good women." "Penny, Lord, straight off their back, bopen, and strengthens their shining bones, so that they all be good men." (From the Norfolk Journal and Guide) Dr. George F. Bragg, Jr., of Baltimore, one of our men who has gained the right by his good work over a long period of years to speak with authority on questions affecting the race and its relations with other race groups, takes the position in his letter to the Southern Churchman, quoted in our issue of November 17, which the Journal and Guide, took, also, that forced segregation is one thing and voluntary segregation another, and the two are very different. When left free to do it we flock by ourselves, as other race groups do, preferring our own to others in our social and church life, but when forced to do it, we resent violence, even when backed by a law we had no part in king, implied in the force; because there is no constitutional justification for segregating citizens by law. Commenting on Dr. Bragg's letter to the Southern Churchman goes out of its way to confuse the whole matter in the concluding paragraph of its article, as follows: "Of course, we all know that there is a certain type of Negro leader whose ambition is to bring about the intermingling of the races. No method of combating this form of leadership is no effective as a means of combating the conspiracy of Negro within the urban sections occupied by them, and of doing them justice along every line without racial intermingling." This "racial intermingling" business is our old enemy, the "social equality" humbug, which the law has nothing to do with any more than it has to do with freedom of religious worship and who shall and who shall not belong to the same church and communes at the same table, and has no relation whatever to the main questions, being voluntary in their operation, civic segregation in something else, such as accommodations in public places, on land and see, separate voting booths, separate living districts—there can be in legal civil segregation or justice to those compelled without their consent to accept such. Experience has demonstrated the truth of that. Those segregated will always get the small end of the tax appropriation out of the common fund and the worst accommodations for which they pay equally with others. We know of no type of Negra leader who has not compelled an action is to hear about the intermingling of the race; and we doubt if the Southern Churchman could single out by name a baker's dozen such. White Christianity falls down flat when it draws the color line in the pews, in the pulpit and at the communion table, and it is doing that, it has done that, and it has suffered greatly for doing it, and it is suffering for doing it. It will suffer for doing it. And those who draw the color line in citizenship and the benefits of citizenship, do they not suffer for so doing? Even so. "MR. GARVEY HAS AN IDEA; IT WILL REDEEM AFRICA; YOU CANNOT DAM UP AN IDEA" By DAVID W. PARKER In the Birmingham Report. I don't know what impression Marcus Garvey made on his Birmingham audience. I did not hear him; neither have I heard any one express an opinion, Garvey has a great idea, and like Ceril Rhodes is a dreamer of empires. Columbus was a dreamer, and for years was held up to scorn and ridicule until a Catholic priest prevailed upon Queen Isabella to finance his voyage in the discovery of unknown lands. Ben Harrison, the father of one President and the great grandfather of another, said to the signers of the Declaration of Independence: "Unless we hang together we will hang separately." The framework of this whole American government was the dreams of the fathers of the Republic: No one can knoole a great idea in the head.

There are singers who have naturally fine voices; there are those who excel in artistic polish, but Mr. Heyes had an unusual combination—a tone of appealing beauty and a wide range of volume and expression. With this there was no affectation, no pose, and the tenor could show a thorough aptitude for German lieder, for instance, and then sing, spirituals with the appealing quality which only negro singers fully grasp. It was Saturday, a notoriously bad concert night, but there was one of the largest audiences that ever had visited Town Hall. Mr. Hayes began with eightieth century numbers—an artiste by Parrallist; "When I'm Lald in Earth," from Pucellil's *Dolce and Aeneas*; "Would You Gain the Tender Creature?* by Handel, this remarkable for exquisitely shaded soft tones; and Bach's "Bist du bel mier." Schubert and Schumann followed, and here Mr. Hayes seemed a thoroughly equipped lieder singer. With a quiet manner, he knew how to bring out the varied expression of his numbers with subtle shadings of planisimo in a tons of full, rich quality. There may have been a slight tilt in his louder part in opening group, but not during its successors. Mr. Hayes had an excellent German diction, readily understood by any one knowing a word of that language. French numbers followed. Ocean Franck, and Faure, beautifully sung, although Mr. Hayes's French was not as clear as his German. Then came one of Dvorak's Biblical songs. It had been announced that Mr. Hayes was adding Japanese to his other four languages, and he proved this by singing a song in French and a language as an encore—and then the Dream arie from "Maman." All this was most pleasing, but the greatest eagerness was for the final group of spirituals. With the combination of power and refinement in Mr. Hayes' voice those had an unusual effectiveness and pathos, especially the unaccompanied "Crucifixion," handed down from a preacher of about a century ago. Other numbers were "When I Goe" arranged by H. T. Burleigh; the joyous Lawrence Brown's arrangement of "The Spirit of God," told the Spirit with a inestablishable poise and Mr. Hayes's own version of "Sit Down." The qualit, touchful, theme was told by Mr. Hayes before he sang, William Lawrence, a negro pianist, was the accompanist. There was no doubt that the recital here out of the various laudatory comments that have come from Europe, and more recently from Boston, and it is to be hoped that another will follow. not walk around the corner to lock him over, but the man has a great idea. It is not new, for in the early part of the nineteenth century Captain Paul Coffee, the noted Negro navigator and philanthropist of Massachusetts, enlisted the support of many of the greatest men of his day in his project 16 colonize the American Negro in Africa. It is always easy to get the attention and sympathy of the oppressed, and as long as there is hope in the breast of a human being he is ready to see beautiful stars beyond the clouds. John Brown had an idea. That idea suffered and died at Harper's Ferry, but the same idea had a glorious resurrection at Appomattox. It may not be practical to colonize all the Negroes into Africa, but when capital, which knows not color or creed, tunnels, the mountaintops, and spans the rivers of Africa for the development of the marvelous national resources of that continent will be a scramble of all nations for territory just as England, France, Spain and Holland fought for the beat lands in America. Garvey has an idea which may be two hundred years old, but his biggest idea will restore Africa to the glory that was here when old Solomon kotowed to the Ethiopian Queen Sheba, and begat Mezrid, whose descendants continue unto this day to rule the great Negro empire of Abyssinia. As long as Garvey has dreams and visions of a greater force, where a persecuted race may find rest, just so long will he have believers and followers. It is human nature and you cannot dam up an idea. "Nagara gave daughter $2,000,000 wishing to show her rattle what it could be." — *Histories from New York World, December 2, 1923.* Game showing: Who will follow this hand? By F. D. PERKINS Mr. Garvey Gives Something New — Movement Positive and Dramatic— Redemption Programme Worthy of Consideration By PROF. KELLY MILLER In the Boston Chronicle The pull of the contigent of Africa turns constantly as the heart strings of the race. It may be due to the fact that the African constituent is not fully acceptable in other lands. Du Bols informs us that the French deleteries have withdrawn from his Pan-African conference because they were perfectly satisfied with their status as Frenchmen. Even if the saints among whom the African is disposed should treat him with consideration of 100 per cent equality, I somehow wonder if the race would not still hear and lied the call of the continent of their nativity. About the year 1820 the colony of Liberia was founded as a foothold of the, transplanted, race in the land of their mothers. This was the atrinsic conceit of an alien mind. The whole Liberian scheme represents what the white man thinks the Negro should think about his native land. Enthusiasm for Liberian colonization gave way to the emotional wave of racial equality engendered by the Civil War. It was quickly revived when the war ended and the liberation of the Liberian movement was enkilled with considerable force and terror. Dr. Edward W. Blyden, the famous Negro scholar, was the master mind in this awakening. Prof. Hugh M. Brown and Thomas McCant-Stewart responded to the call. But soon the wave of fervor recalled, only to be revived in our own day and time. Dr. Du Bols is fostering the Pan-African conference composed of representatives of the mother continent now scattered among the various nations of the earth. Marcus Garvey heads a more positive and dramatic movement, with a program of immediate or early effectiveness. He writes with the assistance and finality of his proposals. He puts the world at gaze like a new comet that blazes suddenly in the heavens. The one fundamental difference between the newer and the old American schemes consists in the fact that the one relies upon the philanthropy of the whites to put it in execution, while the present African renaissance depends upon the Negro himself. In this respect Garvey has given something new. He believes that there is sufficient potential in the race to reclaim and develop its native continent if only it might be released and given efficient expression. It would be absurd to attempt to prophesy the outcome of any of the proposed schemes of African reemployment. They are all worthy of consideration if not of acceptance. But whatever may be the outcome of this scheme or that, we may confidently expect the more or less regular recurrence of the African repatriation, at least until the scattered fragments become fully satisfied with the lands in which they sojourn. THE BRITISH THRONE PARIS, Dec. 7. Remenonation of the British throne by the Prince of Wales has practically been decided upon according to a sensational article by Lodie Thomas in this afternoon's "Intransigent" which says: "After his return from India it was reported the Prince of Wales would renounce U. S. throne, owing to poor health. Denial followed, but it is now remarked the denial was only that he would renounce the throne on account of ill health. "Meanwhile the Duke of York has been given girdles of honor, usually only accorded the heir of the throne. Now the Duchess of York has been expressly forbidden by the King to dance in public restaurants, which is hard to explain otherwise than that she is on day to day to be Queen. "The reason for the Kinz and Queen's decision seems to be the obstinate refusal of the Prince of Wales to marry, and also his "beirucoi taste," especially as regards girls."

New York Telephone Association, Inc. 10 East 39th Street 4 New York We've all waited for it. We've all appointed us it. It has been delivered. We've all read it. We are now thinking it over. A few of us are using it. The press is discussing it—some command, others condemn. Some are deflated, others disappointed. Wall Street is glad, ex-soldiers are mad. Presidential aspirants have selected from it a fighting club; while black men easily recognize in it the same old policy of using meaningless phrases, and employing the art of "fence-straddling" when the denied constitutional rights of Negroes are being discussed. One hundred and fifteen million Americans have read this message. One hundred millions of them have noted with interest the President's discussion of "Foreign affairs," "The World Court," "Russia," "Debt," "Timal conditions," "Tariff Law," "Shipping," "Public improvements," "Railroads," "Highways and Forests," but the eyes of fifteen million moved over these swiftly, for they were anxious to see—see what? What he said about us. Of all groups in America none looked with as much anxiety for a word about themselves as the Negroes. What a pity that the spirit of America is such as to keep fifteen million citizens hysterically anxious about liberty, life, and the pursuit of happiness. A shameless system renders us almost incapable of thinking, or acting, in any terms other than race. Our condition forces us to use the press, pulpit, public forum, and every other agency at our command for the purpose of putting our case to the world. With few exceptions, every song composed, book written, or picture painted is a protest against some wrong doe, or a plea for some right denied the race. A system in any country which keeps the thought, genius and energy of fifteen million of its people thinking and acting in a groove of group-interest instead of national interest is a shameful and wasteful system. Who knows what America or the world is losing by cramping the genius of black men? The latest thing out in the way of organization is the THE A. S. C. Anglo-Saxon Club of America. According to an extreme article written by one John Powell, the A. S. C. of America has twenty-five posts in various parts of Virginia, while Mizalisippi, Texas, New York, Georgia, New Hampshire, Missouri and several others have sent in requests for charters. These requests from the several States should serve as the most omnious signs of the times. Mr. Powell further informs us that the aims and objects of this new club are the preservation and the maintenance of American ideals, and the prevention of whites and blacks mixing their blood. Primarily, there is but little difference between this organization and the K. K. K., for the A. S. C. is organized for the same purpose as is the Klan, namely, the maintenance of "white supremacy." Having watched the experiences through which the Klan passed on account of its religious prejudices, this new organization has deemed it wise to leave out every mention of religion in its program. So, after all, the name of Catholic and Jew in the program of the Klan is simply a ruse to pull the wool over the unsuspecting and cover the real intent of their program. This is the third organization of the kind that has come forth since the war—each crying race-preservation and white supremacy. Since the great war the white man has become much disturbed about his supremacy and the perpetuation of his ideals. Several books have been written, pointing out the dangers ahead, if the white races fail to unite their strength against all who do not look like themselves. Statesmen have come forward preaching for the preservation of white ideals, and white civilization. The birth of these organizations is but an attempt to stay the inevitable breakdown of white civilization. Why should it not break? It has brought little to be preserved! It must give way to the greatest age mankind has yet to see—the spiritual age. A spiritual people must usher into this age. The white man is not spiritual, therefore he must pass. The organizations of the Anglo-Saxon Club and the Ku Klux Klan and others similar are but vain attempts. TOPICS OF INTEREST "New Anglo-Saxon Club Draws Color Line in Fear of 'Civilization's End,' " is the title of a three-column article in the second news section of Sunday's New York "World," by John Powell of Richmond, Va. It tells hot and cold alternately and lacks that reasonable truth that must take in the human race as a whole in any attempt to review a specifying group. Whether you have read the article or not, this writer suggests that you obtain a copy of J. A. Rogers' Superman Man" that gives a wealth of historical information on the human race and especially of the Negro. This enables anyone to have at all times the findings of true scientists, ethnographers, historians whose knowledge and reputation give the lie to false statements. The Anglo-Saxon Club should be denied the chance they seek to arrest the attention of thoughtful Negroes into a perilous controversy. Self-reliance and a purposeful life are an outstanding feature of the doctrine of Hon. Marcus Garvey, leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. As members, friends, well-wishers and observers are we really measuring up to the required standard? Self-reliance calls for ability, knowledge, power, inspiration and optimism; in other words, the doctrine calls on Negroes everywhere, men, women and children, to obtain those qualities, goods or positions that create in reality the ideals of Mr. Garvey's philosophy. A purposeful life assumes that you know where you came from, why you are here and where and how you intend to make your mark in the world. Just a little self-examination. Do you know something about yourself in this connection that can stand investigation? All the books you read and the things you see are the best that you can certain of yourself and that they are you to overcome real or imaginary obstacles? Self-reliance and a purposeful life should mean to you more than so many words. "Go thou, and do likewise." After you have won by preparedness the fundamental worth of these instructions, you will be slated for promotion and a more responsible place in the new order of human affairs. Business industries are the big factors in the world today. All the opportunities in the less developed countries point the way for us to create the sort of attention that will change the attitude now held about us; because money and force talk loudly and are respected. The time has come when the profession of medicine, law, religion, music, literature and art must extend into the new field of economical commerce, business, industry, and land reclamation. The development of natural resources and various industries to nurture home development of native students and the introduction to foreign markets of all other businesses that we can have a ready site. message is broadcasted in all effort to overcome the intentional restraint placed upon Negro peasantry in many parts of the world. Your chambers of commerce and agricultural societies must be approached with proper plans by representatives who know your needs as well as ways and means to gain the approval of capital that will give local and foreign progress to any places with the advancement it deserves. Banking and finance are two major advantages that big men of affairs hold over small nations and partly organized groups. These two terms contain sound information and facts about countries, population, products, resources, mineral and vegetable wealth, dispositions, outlook and possibilities that are not found elsewhere by the keenest research. In the new order evolving under the guidance of our own responsible control, it is suggested that all the possible information of a general character, including the definite conclusions of scientific research, will find more. Negro students than in the past. Knowledge is power when correctly used, and efficiently applied. The press and its responsibility, and by that I mean journalists educators, authors, publicists and executives in charge of printing and its allied branches, must now mold the asphid masses who look up for information. No chain is stronger than its weathered, therefore, the vanguard is only certain of its strategic gains by the reserve forces, a disposal of the responsible guides, a calllightened self-interest calls for harmony and discipline of all ranks. As a body the men referred to hold a key position; trained to think, observe, decide logically. They must defend indirect attacks because they know the truth and the whys and whereofs of many things. A word about our klinen in other parts of the world. Many of us paint glowing pictures of facilities for improved education, in America, Europe or other parts of the world, without saying a word about the distractions, cheating will, o' the whips, that must be fought and conquered. Very often we have forgotten the intention behind the travel we make from country to country. Instances multiply, themselves where a complete change has been effected. It does make progress easier, however. These changes should never influence we seeking advancement to forget the silent forces seeking to destroy and devour one group of the human family. Now, that we are aware of all kinds of attacks, direct and covert, everywhere, there must be a greater will to hold on to the gains already achieve. white working carefully for a better future for this and the coming generations. There are 58. Negro farmers per 1,000 of their racial population, as compared with 58 white farmers per 1,000 white inhabitants. These enslaved farmers operate land in farm signals in 2.3 per cent of the total land area of the United States, and if the land was owned by them we would see more it would form a big body about two- male half sizes wide. That would mean the earth of the African continent.

N. L. A. who debated even the elements rather than miss the inspiration which they can receive only from the platform of Liberty Hall—an inspiration that dries them and gives them greater determination to push forward and onward in their right to uphold the principles of the association and bring the race nearer and nearer the goal of a free and redeemed Africa. The chief executive, it was well represented, amused those present being President-General Hon. Marcus Garvey; Hon. William Sheridh, First Assistant President-General; Hon. James O'Megley, High Commissioner; Hon. P. L. Buttigroux, Second Assistant Secretary-General; Hon. G. E. Carter, First Vice-President of the New York Local; Mrs. M. Sharpson-Young, Representing the Lodge of the Royal Court of Ethiopia. The meeting was opened with the usual formality, namely, the procession of the cliff, the legions and other uniformed auxiliaries of the association, which was followed by the singing of the opening ode, "From Greenland's key Mountains," in which the abdomen Joined. Then followed the musical program, which included vocal and piano solos, recitations and selections by the U. N. L. A. Band, all of which were creditably executed. Specials were then delivered by Hon. Wm. Sherrill, Hon. G. E. Carter and Hon. Marcus Garvey. Mr. Sherrill, who spoke first, drew attention to the recent activities of the white race to organize themselves for the purpose as they were to preserve the American past and to be unification and basic education between the black and white races of America. These efforts to save and rebuilt the direction of which the white is blowing regarding the Negro base in America He depicted, however, the much valued American spirit which the white man was forever beckoning about.

Continuing, he said, after making reference to President Coolidge's recent message to Congress in which he onched on all the vital issues confronting the country, but had little to say about the black man and nothing at all on the Ku Klux Klan, which was fast becoming a national issue—that a system in a country which keeps 15,000,000 of its people thinking and working and acting only in terms of itself instead in terms of the whole is a wasteful and a shameful system. The silence on the Ku Klux Klan by the leaders of this country, especially the political leaders, said Mr. Sherrill, simply impressed upon us of the U. N. I. A. the necessity of us as Negroes continuing our fight for self-expression and endeavoring to work out our own destinies. In conclusion, he predicted the ushering in of a spiritual age by black men—a great spiritual age which will treat men as men and make the world realize by precept and by example that of one blood God made all the nations of the earth to dwell together in peace and unity. Mr. Carter took up the thought expressed by Mr. Sherrill about the ushering in of a spiritual age; andGuid since that was a tradition as well as a prophecy it is well for us to be looking into our affairs in the material age in order that we may be fitted as spiritual beams in evolving the mighty age that is to follow. Mr. Garvey took issue on the question and, while admiring the altruism of the previous speakers' thought of a spiritual age being ushered in by the black peoples of the world, he doubted whether man in his present sinful state was capable of initiating a new spiritual age, and, furthermore, whether if it were at all possible the black man should be the one to undertake the big job of brigging man back to the state of purity and universal love from which he had strayed since the talk of the first man. Adam. This job, he said, could only be accomplished by the Almighty, *n* that *Christ himself had failed to accomplish it*, and much less so would the Negro, who was the humbest of all human beings on the earth. His opinion was that the Negro should concern himself about the things affecting his physical and material life and leave the things spiritual to God. HON. WILLIAM SHERRITT SPEAKS Hon. William Sherrill said that, in view of the fact that so much was being said in the papers here of late in regard to the organization of the new order among whites, which has practically the same object in view that the Ku Klux Klan has in view, he would make a few remarks on that subject. I mention this he said, "not because this organization has grown to any large strength; neither because this organization is at this time large enough to be of very much bhindrance to the Negro and his progress, but because it simply indicates to us the direction in which the wind is blowing regarding the Negro here in America." White Race Organizing Against Mis- This organization is known as the Anglo-Saxon Club of America, organized in Virginia, and Mr. Powell states that it was indorsed by the leading universities of Virginia and that several States, including New York, asked for charters. The primary purpose of A FEELING OF SECURITY A FEELING OF SECURITY You naturally feel secure when you know that the medicine you are about to administer is safe and contains a harmful biotecting agent. Such a medicine is Dr. Klumer's Swamp-Root, kidney, liver and bladder medicine. The standard of purity, strength and excellence is maintained in every bottle of Swamp-Root. It is scientifically compounded from vegetable herbs. It is not a stimulant and is taken in teaspoonful doses. It is not recommended for everything. It is nature's great helper in relieve- ment, in keeping kidnes, liver and bladder troubles. A worm statement of purity is with every bottle of Dr. Wilmer's Swamp-root. You need a medicine, you should have the heat. On sale at all large stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. However, if you wish first to try this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Wilmer's Swamp-root in a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper. this organization is to preserve the American spirit and to stop amalgamation and miscegenation between the black and white races in America. This is the third organization of the kind, including the Ku Klux Klan, that has come into being since the great war. The great war, which did so much to amaken Negroes, not only awakened Negroes but it awakened $50,000,000 white people of the world to the necessity of their co-operating and bringing about between them a more effective solidarity for their own preservation. Especially America has been awakened to the necessity of the white man co-operating in order that he might preserve the civilization built up by whites. Safeguarding the American Spirit Mr. Powell discussed at length the American spirit. I notice in the speech of President Coolidge that he also emphasized the American spirit.. There is much emphasis being laid upon the American spirit, and the white man feels that it becomes necessary at this time to safeguard this spirit and to protect his blood against the entrenchment of alien spirits and alien bloods. In President Coolidge's speech there was no mention made of the Ku Klux Klan. He declared himself on almost every issue except this. I am not speaking for or against his attitude in this matter: I am only stating to you this. It has been said by the Hon. Marcus Garvey and through The Negro World that the white man in this country in all of his calculations is not taking the Negro in consideration; instead, he is seeing to it that every safeguard will be made that the Negro will not press himself into this consideration. The Necessity for Negro Self-Expression The silence on the Ku Klux Klan by the leaders of this country, and other political leaders simply impresses upon those of us of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the necessity of us as Negroes continuing our light for Negro self-expression, and for Negroes to work out their own destinies. "The white man sees further: 'Coming events cast their shadows before them.' He expresses plainly his attitude at this time toward the Negro and toward all races his antithesis of the breaking down of white civilization. 'Pride guilt before destruction,' and we see this proud man already at the apex of his achievement and accomplishment working feverishly to protect that which he has built up and daring any to encroach on or to attempt to adulterate his civilization and his American spirit. Not a Spirit for the Negro to Feel Proud of The Negro does not feel that the white man has developed the greatest spirit that could be manifested among mankind. The Negro in the Universal Negro Improvement Association feels that there is a spirit manifested to ward mankind to be ushered into the world greater than that which the white man has brought. What does the preservation of the American spirit mean to the Negro? A spirit which permits fifteen million of its people to suffer all kind of prejudices and humiliations. A spirit that permits fifteen million of its people to go without the protection of their lives in certain parts of the country. A spirit that prohibits fifteen million of its people to acquire to the highest point of success, manhood and responsibility in the country. A spirit that permits one hundred million of its people to sample on the other fifteen million in not a spirit that the fifteen million who suffer could be very proud of. A Shameful System As I read the President's speech the thought struck me that there were millions of Negroes in this country reading that speech. Although he talked about tariff, cast line protection, railroads, I know that the eyes of millions of Negroes reading that speech can swiftly over all, hoping to find out what was said about the black man. That not be. A system is a country which keeps fifteen million of its people thinking; and working and acting only in terms of itself instead in terms of the whole is a wasteful and a shameful system. Ninety per cent, 95 per cent, 98 percent of the Negro's energy and time and talent in this country through his press, pulpit and public forum is spent stating his case. Negro gengos and Negro intellect perhaps that could better engaged along the lines to contributing to science and art and literature is compelled to run alone in a little special groove thinking about themselves. And that not only oblivious here; it obtains wherever Negroes live in large groups in white communities. Spiritual Age to Be Ushered in by Black Man The Negro, having become fully awake to the necessity of him protecting himself and building for himself, is determined to utter in a greater age and a greater spirit than the present age and spirit. We believe that the next great age that will be ushered in in the spiritual after this material age; and we do not predict that the white man, not being a spiritual being, is capable of ushering in this spiritual age. We look forward to the great age that will be ushered in by a black man—a great spiritual age which will treat men and men and the world realize by example that of one blood God made all the majors of the earth to dwell together in peace and in unity. MR. CARTER'S ADDRESS Mr. Carter said he little expected to be called upon to spenk, and so he laid no set speech, for the occasion; but the association's motto was preparedness, and if he must present a thought, as he should, it must be from the subject given to him by the Hon. William Sherrill, when he said that the next age will be a spiritual age, and that it will be ushered in by the black peoples of the world. "Since that is a irulism as well as a prophecy," he continued, "it is well for us to be looking to our affairs in the material age. What preparation shall we make in order that we may be fitted as spiritual beings in evolving the mighty age that is to follow the material? You must understand and know that all development is from within outward, and since this is true, then our big job is to take self in hand, and when we shall have gotten self well in hand we will be able to make contact with humanity in general. And this contact will be of such a nature or character that the world will understand and know that the color of men's skins or the texture of the hair has nothing whatsoever to do in the evolving of problems calculated to work for the general good throughout the entire world. You must understand and know that if you are to be the spiritual beings that the world can trust, surely you must have a viewpoint in life that will be indicative of the fact that you possess certain qualities that will emulate the example of the great Teacher that came into the earth. No Such Thing "Therefore it is necessary for us, in this practical age to understand what the Christ life is like and how it is to be interpreted in a material age. Now the man is foolish—I do not care, whether he be preacher, or teacher, or lawyer, or doctor—who in a material age will teach people positively that when a man shakes one cheek you must turn the other cheek to be skipped. Christ never taught any such thing as that, and anybody who tells you Christ did is telling you a falsehood. That which we find attributed to the Christ has been put there by those who compiled and wrote the Bible. This may seem miserable to some, some may say it is verging on infidelity, but take it from me, the Bible in toto as you have it today is just as much a book of propaganda as any other book you meet with." The white man has used it for his special advantage. Take the greatest Apostle that ever lived on earth, the Apostle Paul, a moral genius—and moral geniuses are only born one in ten thousand years—and yet Apostle Paul tells you in plain words, or these words are attributed to him, "Servants, you must obey your masters." And that was preached to us, and some of us so believed it that when freedom came to us, we said, Lord, have mercy. How will we ever get on without Massa Joe? And some absolutely refused to bear Massa Joe to make an existence in the world alone. And that has been so well taught us that until this day and generation we find right here in New York city members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, not in large numbers, thank God, though we have been training them and teaching them, yet we have a few lotters who believe wholly and solely in this doctrine of the white man, and we are ready to kick any man out who has the courage to stand and tell you you cannot accept the Bible in toto. Understand and Know Truth Understand and Know Truth If we are to be fitted for this spiritual age, if we are to usher in this spiritual age, we must understand and know what truth is like. It is absolutely naked, it misses no compo­nise and any man or woman who would declare a whole truth must understand and know it is calculated to make somebody angry, and whenever a man handles a great deal of truth with force and meaning, somebody will be angry, somebody will make a noise. It is like throwing a stone in the dark when you throw it and a dog follows you know it has hit something. So with the truth. You know truth has come home with a great deal of meaning when you hear a noise. And if you would hold the truth in the right way when we are preparing to enter into that great spiritual world and I am not thinking of a world when we leave here and go up yonder, but I am thinking of a world in which men will contact with each other in the spirit of love, in the spirit of Christ's brotherhood and fatherhood—we shall be in that harmony pictured to us as the milieuum dawn. It will take place right here. Leadership "You men and women of the Universal Negro Improvement Association must know you represent the new Negro because of your advanced thought and courage and your teachings for these part five years by this majestic leader the man who stood alone. It is a great thing to be a leader, at the same time it is a sad thing, too, leaders have their moments of hardiness, for they are misunderstood they are derided, the are misinterpreted and the views they present are misconstrued, because the world is slow to accept truth. Therefore leaders sometimes are lonely and sad. But there comes to him a mighty spiritual force that gives him consolation, joy and peace. That is the source that never falls. It is that one source that the Christ sought and found out in His own being when He left the busy crowd and went into the mountain until He gained renewed spirit and came and gave out to the world. So it will be with our faithful leader as he promulgates the truth. Sometimes there will be, take moments of loneliness, when those he has trusted will leave him and go away and he will be made to fold his hands and wonder if, after all, he cannot find men and women who can be trusted to play their parts, and then will come the real assurance from God, who is able to lead, who he given the vision, who has said to him. Thou shalt lead the people I have called you to lead, and because, of this he will give him assurance and the necessary strength to go forth. In conclusion, think of these lines: D) you ever feel downhearted or dis- couraged? D) you ever think your work is all in vain? D) the burdens thrust upon you make you tremble? Do you think you should ne'er the victory gain? Have faith in God, the sun will shine. Theo dark the clouds may be today. His heart has planned your path and mine. Have faith in God, have faith always. HON. MARCUS GARVEY SPEAKS Mr. Garvey said he had no set subject on which, to speak but would discuss the remarks of the, the prajurious speakers on the Negro in the spiritual age. "If I understand Mr. Sherwil correctly," he said, "and Mr. Cavier following, they are advocating that the Negro should bring in the spiritual age, I am not so sure of that matter. I would not advise the Negro to undertake any job that the other groups of humanity at this time are not undertaking for themselves. I think it is unfair to expect the humblest and the lowest class of the human race—that group that suffers most—to be so illogical as to initiate that kind of an effort that would soothe the fills of other men. It is not fair to him. I think, if the higher benefits of the spiritual life are worth while, the people who are up—the people who are enjoying the most out of life should be the first to initiate such a thing, and that, if they have shown no disposition of doing it, they must have had some good reason. "The spiritual life is dourful, awful how. We do not know anything about it. We only assume about it. People have different opinions about it, and the most progressive peoples in the world seem to think that the time is not just now when so much noise should be made about this thing; and if they seem to feel that way—and they have most to lose and most to gain, I do not see why we should go out of our way and search for something that we do not know anything about and leave unattended and unattended the things that the world seems to know most of at the present time. Amore than once we attended to things that affect your spirit and the life of the care of the teacher. And that who misunderstands the world superficially and to make more love and charm has but one way that will never end, because Christ tried to help her was unimaginable. You have a clean-out job before you. Your entire material environment and of the sunful world can bring about changes at all it will come through power and force. Therefore ensure yourselves in getting better and power. Everything will come after. That is the program of the University of New Improvement Association. You cannot see the spirit, but you can see posture and ham and eggs (laughter). The spirit, I say, will eventually take care of itself, but the physical body must be cared for by you yourself. That is the program of the University of New Improvement Association, and that is the program of the world. It is the spiritual condition we was a possibility of the folks who control the affairs of the world would have tempered it long and but they have been impressed if because the job they have done is the best for the other fellow. We are only saying that what another fellow has done we can do. We are ordinary beings like the rest of the world, and if Jesus failed in the job we are not going to undertake 6. "Let Negroes get it out of their heads heads that they can convert the world. It is an impossible job. Get something practical in your head. Convert the white man! Convert the yellow man! Why, they have gotten too far away from conversion for you to bring them back to the idea that you have in mind of a spiritual life—a life of love and giving to the other fellow what you yourself want. It is impossible in this material world and has been impossible since the fall of man. So you cannot do the impossible.

This world and until that sin is corrected you will be unable to make man a real spiritual being worthy of his God. Adam was a perfect man—a man who was capable of doing everything and anything, spiritual, but when he displeased God and sinned he brought a reign of temporal and material grief into the world and we are still undergoing that reign, and so long as we continue that way it is impossible for you to convert man to the original state in which he was before. That is the spiritual life spoken of. When man is really spiritual he will find himself in the original state of Adam without sin and beauty, and that cannot be done today so long as he exists. Every other fellow in the world thinks differently because he believed if he had not sinned, then everybody in the world would be thinking spiritually the same way. Don't misunderstand me. The Universal Negro Improvement Association's platform is that the spiritual life must be taken care of, but that is God's duty to man. The physical life must also be taken care of, and that is man's duty to man, and we are engaged only in man's duty to man and playing that God will continue to take care of us spiritually. Do not interfere with God's province. God in His good time will bring about the spiritual reign. Do not before that time undertake to do the impossible. Recognition Life as it is now is made up of certain elements. The strength of them all is the material element. The fellow who has something, the piece which is something of the nation that has something is the fellow race, one that is a piece of the nation, which it is apparently composed of. It is that the universal Names of the nation, the Names of the people, is the materiality of their way on those lands. And when you have some kind of an imminent threat to the world will turn toward you. Any other effort in a spiritual direction to attack the objection of the world will arouse concern to be met in the world and not to now be taken over the Names. He has always led the nation that threat to bombarding the precious earth and transmitting with the thing that would matter more to the world would be a better man, to the more of this world. You can be taken over the nation now. The best citizen in town might be the fellow within the most prosperous place. The best down to the bottom of England could be down to the bottom of Aberdeen to the bottom of the government, and to the other off the coast. You have dealt with the people and asked them why you are not better citizens and if they will tell you the whole thing is more practical on the fellow with the most property. Solving the IIs of the World tends to build up the BLOOD, MUCILLE, MUSCLE. It brings it to bloom. It brings FLEXION. It does you so much good that you WORK and SLEEP and MAY AND ENJOY the food better. If you doubt me, make me prove it. I will send you the sands of others. It is up to you now—nobody to blame if you don't try to get it right now.

Box 47 Hamilton Grange Station New York City thing, everything else is possible, and the philosophy we have always advanced in this association is that the poor man cannot find it possible in this age to be a true Christian. You may further explain that, as I have done before. In the arrangement of the world, since an aim into the world it has become hard and impossible to the poor man to be really spiritually good and spiritually worthy. Before he can become such he has first to take a part of the world, of the world's goods, of the world's satisfaction before he can become perfectly spiritually and comfortable. So you must not any time get into our minds that to being purely spiritual individually you are going to solve the problem of the world. You may satisfy your own feelings, but that is not going to alter the other fellow's attitude at all. A Sinful World. To further emphasize my point I all the Negroes in the world be the best Christians you can find, just how won't commit to you. Do you think that would impress John D. Hickok teller? Do you think that would press the grocer you have to do with? Many a sanitized man or holy fellow cannot get five free credit.

At Dennison House yesterday one found less than a score of Negroes meeting under the chairmanship of Dr. DuBois. Pew of the prominent Africans in London seem to be attending the Congress, and the great communities of Africa itself seem hardly to be represented at all. Still the Congress is only in its infancy." Yes, the Congress is still young, but it appears to be weaker in the number of its membership and attendance: at the age of three years than it was at the age of one. We say it so appears. And the indications are that the Pan-African Congress has fallen down flat, because it is a Conference and not a Congress, an individual and not a representative organism, and because, by no fault of his, Dr. DuBois is not a leader of men. THE AX MURDERS OF BIRMINGHAM THERE is no terror comparable to the theoretical Sword of Damocles, hanging by a hair, always, over the heads of wrongdoers. It is in the same class with invisible government, a sort of War of the Roses, in the thirty years' reign of which those of York and those of Lancaster struck down each other as often in the dark as in the light and as often in the back as in the stomach. The Invisible Empire of Dr. William Herod Evans of Texas and Georgia is of this character in our times, with a continuous record of lawlessness for half a century even unto the present. To carry the invisible business to an absurdity, little children are frightened out of their wits by a masked face without knowing what is behind the mask, and grown-ups are afraid to pass a graveyard and run like mad if a ghostly shadow confronts them in the dark. The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. There appears to be a mysterious organization in Birmingham Alabama, dedicated to the proposition that if Negro women associate with white men in the dark they shall both die at the psychological moment their sins find them out. It might be called "The Ax-ionatic Association for the Protection of Negro Womanhood." The police, so far, of Birmingham, have been baffled in all of their efforts to run down the ax wielder. The other night a pretty mulatto girl of nineteen and a wealthy white man of thirty, with whom she was known to associate in the dark, were found dead, cut to pieces with an ax, in Second Alley. A Birmingham dispatch in the Louisville Leader gives the following particulars of the grusome murder and the foul moral conditions prevailing in Birmingham, to wit: PRESIDENT COOLIDGE TALKS STRAIGHT THE PEOPLE IN his first message to the Congress, and in his revelation of himself to the American people, President Coolidge, in simple, direct words and snappy sentences, which the average person can easily grasp and understand, disregarded the wishes of the warring groups in the Republican party in the Congress, which weaken party effectiveness and threaten party continuance in power, and appeals directly to the common sense and diversified interests of the people of the country. He believes that the paramount issue before Congress is the reduction of tax burdens, and he does not favor the soldier bonus, and on both these vital questions he speaks out bravely and without hedging. He believes that the prohibition laws should be enforced, and that Congress should enact proper legislation against "the hideous crime of lynching," and that a commission should be authorized to study conditions and bring about a better understanding between the races. Discussing the Negro question, he says: This brings the ax murders to twenty-two. Over ten colored women have been slain under similar circumstances, eighteen persons assaulted with axes, most of them white, have recovered. The alley where the murder occurred is in the downtown section, inhabited by whites. The woman was chopped in many places about the head and body, and her companion met a similar fate. The couple were found in the dark alley by Officers Tully and Cobb, who called an ambulance and conveyed both to the hospital, where they died. The body of the pretty woman was found lying face downward in the alley. Her face had been beaten into a pulp. Her clothes were torn into shreds. Detectives inferred that some Negro secret society has a movement on foot to prevent relationship between white men and colored women, and have adopted the ax system to frighten them from the practice. It is a common occurrence recently to see such men and women promenading in the public thoroughfares. It is alleged that business and professional colored men have been warned against associating with many pretty women of their race who are admired by the opposing parties. The details surrounding the vice conditions is appalling and to be deplored. Miss Jackson, the murdered woman, was very young and was handsomely gowned prior to the tragedy. However, in spite of these ax murders of colored women and white men, every month or two, a pair of lovers are caught spooning and subsequently struck down with an ax. Numbered among our population are some 12,000,000 colored people. Under the Constitution their rights are just as sacred as those of any other citizen. It is both a public and a private duty to protect those rights. The Congress ought to exercise all its powers of prevention and punishment against the hideous crime of lynching, of which the Negroes are by no means the sole sufferers, but for which they furnish a majority of the victims. Already a considerable sum is appropriated to give the Negroes vocational training in agriculture. About half a million dollars is recommended for medical courses at Howard University to help contribute to the education of 500 colored doctors needed each year. On account of the migration of large numbers into industrial centers, it has been proposed that a commission be created, composed of members of both races, to formulate a better policy for mutual understanding and confidence. Such an effort is to be commended. Every one would rejoice in the accomplishment of the results which it seeks. But it is well to recognize that these difficulties are to a large extent local problems which must be worked out by the mutual forbearance and human kindness of each community. Such a method gives much more promise of a real remedy than outside interference. The 100 per cent. Americans who insist that white purity must be maintained have been corrupting it by lecherous association with black and colored women in the dark, and leaving the children to be cared for by the women, for fully two hundred years, and they are still on the job, too much so, in all of the Southern States. We do not speak from hearsay we know. The Axiomatic Association for the Protection of Negro Womanhood, in Birmingham, is a standing answer to the 100 per cent. white lechers who associate with black women in the dark, and repudiate their colored bastards in the light, and who insist that white womanhood shall be inviolate while actively engaged in the dirty business of corrupting black women. It is a notorious fact that white Americans and white Britishers, in their colonies and travels among alien off-color people, cohabit with the native women and leave their offspring to be cared for by the women. Could anything be more inhuman, more brutal! In our travels through the Philippine Islands we could always tell by the color of the children if a white American regiment had been stationed in the district during the Spanish-American war. At Vancouver we came upon a beautiful Australian woman, with an infant in her arms, sitting on a bench near the railroad station, weeping and refusing to be comforted. She told us she had married an English youngster, who layed her and wanted to take her to his home in England, but when they reached Vancouver he received a telegram from his parents saying they would disinherit him if he should fetch his native wife home. He had deserted her and his child in a strange land and gone his way. Can you imagine anything more inhuman, more beastly! But that is the character of white men in association with black and off-color women, and makes necessary and possible the existence everywhere of Axiomatic Associations for the Protection of Negro Womanhood. We do not believe that the commission which the President thinks well of, and which was suggested recently by a cheap lily-white Republican of Arkansas, would accomplish any lasting good. The difficulties of the problem are, as the President suggests, local in character, but we have depended upon the good will of the local whites for more than fifty years to correct them, with the result that they have grown worse every year, and are worse now than ever before, in so far that large bodies of Negroes are leaving the South for other States, thus lessening the productive man power of the South and exposing its vast farm acreage to uncultivation and desolation. The President could have said something about wholesale disfranchisement, Jim Crow laws, race discrimination in the public service, and the vile Harding policy of excluding Negro Republicans from appointment to public offices at home and abroad, and of forcing them out of political leadership and association in the higher councils of the party, but he said nothing, so that the discontent and rebellion of Negro Republicans remain and are likely to go on and menace Republican success in the Presidential elections next year. The Negro has grown weary of Republican neglect and insults and kicks. ROLAND HAYES FRESH from his triumphs in Europe and recent appearance in the Boston Symphony Concert, as a lyric tenor, Roland Hayes appeared in New York, at the Town Hall, recently in recital, accompanied by William Lawrence. He was greeted by one of the largest audiences that had ever gathered in the Town Hall. It was a mixed audience. The admission prices ranged from $1 to $2.20. Unless the reputation which Mr. Hayes has made in Europe and America, and the extensive advertising which he has secured by his singing, had justified it, 2,000 people would not have turned out on a Saturday night in New York to hear him. To get a big audience by extensive advertising is often easy, but to hold the big audience by the wizardry of the master is another and more difficult thing. This Mr. Hayes did. He held his audience and was applauded to the echo upon the rendition of every number. THE PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS FALLS DOWN THE way to have a Congress is, first, to have constituencies that elect representatives; that is to say, a Congress must necessarily be composed of elected representatives. The Pan-African Congress is, therefore, misnamed, as those who compose it are entirely irresponsible; they come together of their own motion, and make long addresses, and adopt resolutions which bind nobody but themselves. There may be a dozen such or a thousand, yet they are not a Congress but a Conference. Mr. Hayes rendered numbers in four languages, including the Japanese, and a number of Spirituals. He rendered the classic selections from Schubert and Schumann, and others, with splendid effect. We think he showed best in these renditions, but the writer for the New York Evening Mail thinks he was at his best in the Spirituals, perhaps because the prejudice among whites has grown to be very general that a Negro can do nothing well or in an extraordinary way unless he sticks to jazz and ragtime and "drawing water and hewing wood." He must stick to the slave education, with its agonies and hopeless hopes, or he will fall down flat, the big idea being that he cannot excel in the cultural exaltations which are the common property of mankind, to be mastered by him who can, whatever race he may belong to. The big idea is based in pure rot. Dr. DuBois, who is a master of the English language, once declared that Negro editors do not understand the proper use of words or something to that effect. Perhaps not. Many of our editors, and perhaps the best, never enjoyed the advantages of a liberal education, but they have done a splendid work in laying the foundation of the great and growing journalism we have today and in standing four-square for the full privileges and immunities of the race guaranteed by the Federal Constitution, a Constitution which they have glorified by their blood and sweat in war and peace. It appears to us that Dr. DuBois made an improper use of words when he named his baby the Pan-African Congress instead of the Pan-African Conference, and we are directing his attention to the fact. The Baltimore Afro-American devotes two columns to a London later furnished by the Associated Negro Press, which does business in Chicago, telling us of the success of the third meeting of the Congress in London. It may have been a success, but there were but a baker's dozen of undegregated people in attendance. The London The writer in the Evening Mail says, in including his article: "Though he did some especially praiseworthy singing in songs by Schubert and by Schumann, it was in the Negro spirituals at the end of the program that he was in fullest command of his voice and therefore of his art. But they were spirituals of an exceedingly refined, almost of a drawing room, mildness." That is one way of looking at it; but the daily newspapers which gave notices of the recital, and especially the New York Tribune, gave Mr. Hayes full credit for his mastery as a lyric tenor of the classics, as well as of Spirituals, music. His triumph was complete. The Negro race everywhere is measuring up to the world's highest standards in the necessary and worthy things of life. fut to be less talkative. I wonder if the dear gentlemen are worrying about their congregations, so innocent of men, at least, young men, or is it their virtuous desire really and truly to please Harlem? I do not seek to be offensive. I would not antagonize the gentlemen of whom I speak for all the gold in the world. By them, since infancy I have been taught to believe and understand, of necessity must my bones be held in mother earth, by them the list rites performed, if I must enter the "Pearl's Gates." I only give vent, as is my wont, to some impressible thoughts raidded to me from headquarters as I ponder the why and the Give us men and women, O Lord; give us men and women! When Hanbali, the indomitable swarthy skinned king of Carthage, brought his army across the mighty Alps, he pointed down to the Valley of the Po and exclaimed: "Beyond you lies Rome. Take it!" With a courage as great and a heart as tearless, one to say can point the eyes of the Negro to an unlimited field of opportunity and cry: "Beyond you log success. Take it!" Success is not within the power of another man or race to give. It is within ourselves, Portland (Ore.) Advocate. The announcement that the race banks of Tidewater, led by the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company, of Norfolk, will pay to Christine's saving depositors $175,500 in news gratifying to this community. There is no doubt that during the past year migration of our people to the North in large numbers has made serious inroads upon our economic life in this south. Thankfully, by the showing of these banks it has not been serious enough to provoke great alarm among us who have decided to remain in the South. The tide of migration may alight next year, or it may continue to flow, but whether or not, we who do remain must not see things hail. We have made wonderful works in this section, not ill. In the 60 countries that beset us, and with the growing spirit of racial co-operation being manifested in many parts of the South, there is still plenty of opportunity for our advancement—Norfolk (Va.) Journal and Guide. The person who has regular employment usually has no time to get into mischief.-Baltimore Afro-American. White men generally take things as they find them as to conditions as they are described by men of the race with whom they come in contact. Many of them are beginning to lose faith in us when they see the incredibility with which we swallow the propaganda distributed to injure one and another without examination, then accept it as their own, and then get hysterical in defense. not have them? But they are given us to conquer, to overcome—not to conquer and overcome us. Keep that in mind in the darkest hours, when there seems no way out, no hope remaining. The Salvation Army people say that "a good man may be down but he is never out"—never, until despair enters his soul, until he deserves himself. Now, then, let us look on the bright side of life some, and keep on striving, keep on coming. It will help us knock the bottom out of the dark side of life. LET US LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE By T. Thomas Fortune A person can make himself believe anything he wants, to if he tries hard and keeps at it long enough. In the same way, large masses of people can be educated to believe anything if he, who wants them to do so, goes about it in the proper way. Jesus had only twelve disciples in the beginning. How many Christians are there now in the world? Mohamet had only himself in the beginning, and Allah, but now a large part of the people of Asia and Africa, are Mohammedans Mahatmia Gandhi, who is now languishing in prison, had no one with him when he began to arouse the millions of East India to the, wrongs Great Britain forced upon them in their own government. And Mareus Garvey stood alone and was discredited by race intellectuals and white skeletons when he appealed to the sleeping Africans of the world to wake up and assert their God given right to a voice in their own government and a proper share in their own economic values. Now Gandhi and Garvey have millions of devoted believers and followers. Their governments have made martyrs of both of them, singled them out and pursued them unto prison, but the ideas they stand for live. Why? Because you can martyrize a man but you can't martyrize an idea. By the same token you can indict a man but you can't indict a race. The 100 per cent, whites who have undertaken that job now have 100 per cent, blacks to consult about the justness of the indictment. One of the puzzling things of life, I find, is that liars sometimes have as much success in propagating their dangerous ideas as truthers have in propagating their safe and good ones, and honest people often beg bread which rogues have robbed them of, King David complained about this, and many of us can do so, if we will. It is one of the mysteries in the human complex which makes the wisest of us marvel that it should be so. But I have never had any respect for liars and rogues. They have never caused me to lose any sleep, because I have known that their sins would find them out, and that, sooner or later, they would hang as high as Haman. I have refrained to be cast down or dismayed because of the machinations of liars and rogues, and most people have a little of the one or the other in them, because "I know Man and what is in Men." And the two are far from being the same. I have striven always to look on the bright side of life and to encourage others to do so. There is nothing so horrible as to see nothing but the dark side of life, as a person or a race, and to feel that the present is desperate and the future without hope. I can always see that "behind every cloud there is a silver lining." In the darkest hours of the Civil war, President Lincoln called his cabinet about him for the purpose of reading to them the draft of the Emancipation Proclamation he had prepared. The members found him, as the late Col. Robert G. Ingersoll used to tell it, reading snatches from Petroleum V. Nasby's crossroads stories of the war, and laughing to beat the band. This offended Secretary Station of the War Department, who was always as solemn as a funeral, weighed "own by job, and he to be by job," until he was well off if he known he was to listen only to Nasby's foolishness. The Great President yawned and stretched his long legs under the table and said: "Well, gentlemen, if I could not relax a moment in this way, if I could not forget the great responsibilities of the war that rest upon me, and laugh and forget with Nasby and his foolishness, my heart would break." So, as individuals and is a race, don't let us look on the dark side of life only. Don't let us always feel like a funeral, dead, although alive: unable to smile, unable to see the sunshine, some of which enters into every life, unable to see and make the most of the beautiful and necessary things in life, unable to see and to embrace, wherever we are, and make the most of the opportunities within reach of us all to cultivate our minds by associating with good people and reading good books, and by making and having and enjoying some of the wealth we help create and without possessing some of which life is very hard if not very empty. As a race, as individuals, we have troubles a-plenty of our own, obstacles a-plenty, but what race group, what individual, does THE WAY OF THE WORLD EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS If I were a preacher, as I am a new Negro, while a secret order or a jaws hand remained in my territory I would never lay down, my arms—never! never! never! (Aplloogles to PtT.) Smitten. This silly thought emote me as I perused Lester A. Walton's article in the New York World on Sunday last, in which I was reminded that the pustors of Harlem had banded themselves together to support the editor of one of the Harlem Negra weeklies in making Harlem a 'fit place for Negroes to live' In—Harlem, in whose conlines are gathered together more Negroes per square yard than anywhere else on God's green earth. Alpha and Omega You see, this editor, or rather the newspaper he edited, had inveigled against a useful habit of Harlemites, to wilt, their incontinent swallowing of the vile loehe; denatured alcohol, sold to them by some un-Christian, law-breaking; mercenary white men, to whom exploitation of the Negro's much advertised love of a "good time" and a big bankroll, are alpha and omega. Given a straight head, the gentlemen of the cloth were not slow in following, and now we have, them making plans for a campaign on not only the deadly hooft, but dancing—where the partners approach closer than the finger tips, Sunday funerals, so annoying to the poor undertaker, Sunday basket ball and secret orders, and fraternities, their parades and other outward manifestations of gregariousness, unity and camphness, of love of pomp and ceremony. Let Live So he be it. I am at one with the ministers of the Gospel when they seek to make Harlem cause from its wickedness and live. I am their co-adjutor when they seek to make men shun the netafics, death-dealing, delicatessen store, within which pohom passages are ignored, but to proscribe the Secret Order shows, balm to Harlem men folk's souls, Sunday basket ball and dancing, if the latter savor not of the early Victorian era, is a bit too thick for me. Since I am young, and forward-looking, I believe, I am anxious to see Harlem cause from its wickedness; but, since I am young, I wouldain have Harlem LIVE also. I Wonder wherefore of their avowed campaign, The Judge Expossiorary. If Hariem pastors desire to make Hariem clean, if they desire to put the wits, heartless sailor of booth, Jack Johnson's cabanal, daily growing in popularity, specialists in Sunday funerals, contiguous dancers and all of the other, doors of ill, to, which Hariem is heir, out of business, they need not hold conferences and frame and pass resolutions and inspire Leaster Walton. Let them but sit in their studies and ask themselves this question: "Why is it we fail to attract to our places of worship the young men of Hariem or even a slim percentage of them?" Let them do this, and Conscience will speak, as it unfailingly does, and will state the reason why. Children, Obey Your Parents' For my part, whenever I enter a Harlem place of worship, I come away regretting I did not heed the advice and entreaty of my father and become a gentleman of the cloth. That is about the only reflection I bring away with me. But that is, perhaps, because the materialistic instinct is too strongly developed in me. I go to have my outlook on life informed, my, being strengthened, and I come away doured and disgusted; I come away a cynic, a pessimist, not because in middle service or at the close DOLLARS figure so harshly and vulgarly, but because, rightly, or wrongly, I feel that could I not put a dollar bill, at least, in the collection box I would not be considered a good Christian, perhaps not a Christian at all. Just Seeing Black Yes, preachers of Harlem, dear friends or mine, brighten up your sermon. Tell me more of life, less of death. Tell me of the tomorrow, if you must, nay, since it, is meet, but have more thought of life PRESENT and living NOW. Tell me less of the "Pearly Gates" and more about the "Black Gates" to spiritual and physical communication. "Pearly," after all, connotes no more purity than "Black." Don't stress, the "Pearly" stuff, for I am seeing black, and when I see black I am seeing clear, I am persuaded.

J.) Echo. We never cease to give thanks that we do not run a blackmilling newspaper—Kansas City Call. To an impartial observer of the signs of the times it is very evident that our race must depend very largely, if not wholly, upon itself for its support, progress and development. The disposition to help carry us, which was once quite prevalent upon the part of the better class of the dominant race, if not entirely past, is rapidly passing. We are being thrown more and more upon our own resources. It is well that we are. It forces self-help and self-help develops self-respect. An individual or a people who is willing to be always carried is not worth carrying.—Omisha Monitor. The migration has already shown that the Negro is gradually becoming a factor in the politics of the North. This is right. The Negro needs to learn to use the ballot and to use it for his own protection and for the advancement of the best interest of the community. One of the things necessary is to have officers in the government. In Philadelphia at the last elections there were no colored persons elected, though there was a candidate for judge and one for council, both of whom got respectable votes. We have, however, from Philadelphia, two members of the State legislature, and the good work of both of them has already been seen—Christian Recorder.

WHY JIM GROW IS FLYING NORTH By, W. O. SAUNDERG From Cellier's, the National Weekly A SOUTHERN white man, reared with a Southerner's aversion to the black man, tells here how he was awakened to the new problems that the new type of negro has created. It is no longer, he says, a local problem to be left to the South to solve in its own way. The great Northward movement of settled labor mailing in the city of New York meant it a daisy-tail problem and one that all of us must understand and deal with. Mr. Southerns has traveled for Cellier's through much of the South, and he tells in this series of articles what the new negro is, what he asks for, and what he gets—and leaves it to you to do your own thinking about it. I am a Southern white man, born and raised in an old-fashioned Southern country town where the population was about half black and half white. I have lived nearly all my life in the South and close to colored people. When I was a child I loved my 'old black mammy' and played with negro children without prejudice. But I grew up to shilke negroes generally, just as almost everybody in the South does, for no particular reason at all except that 'a nigger is a nigger.' I came to manhood with a Southern dislike and contempt for black folks. Once or twice I searched my heart and mind for some basis for this dislike. At such times I satisfied myself by contemplating only the vicious, indolent, shiftless, improvident, dirty, ragged, ignorant, offensive type of negro. I did not give much thought to any other kind or recognize that a new type was growing up. And then, a few years ago, a song awoke me. It was more of a chant than a song; it was a new and strange song, the like of which I had never heard before: Bob Wooll here, holl weevil there, holl weevil everywhere. Oh, Lord, isn't I glad! It was a negro singing. He was a Georgia negro, who, with a scord or more of his kind, was employed on road construction in North Carolina. This was one of the songs that he had brought from the fartherouth. That song haunted my. There was a note of genuine gladness, almost of exultation, in the voice singing it, not unlike the note one hears between lines in the Old Testament songs of Jews triumphing over the downfall of their enemies. It seemed a song of empathy. I tucked the words and the music away in my memory, because I pretty well knew that there was a story there somewhere. "Nergio songs have meaning." One who lives among the negroes and studies them comes to know what is in their hearts and on their minds by the songs they sing. If a negro hasn't an old song to fit his moods or thoughts of the moment, he improvises a new song as he works. He sings his hopes, his fears, his loves, and his hunger. A negro dissatisfied with his job and planning to quit the works on the morrow may suddenly start from a fit of mind. Silence and sing as he swings his ax or his shovet: I am a givine to trabel, trabel, trabel, in no moment. And in the morning he will have traveled, and the overseer will have to hunt another laborer. And so, when I heard that black boy from Georgia singing his gladness that the boil weevil was everywhere, I suspected that nothing less than a romance or a tragedy in Negro life had inspired these words. I have never heard them since, and Mr. Monroe N. Work, that wonderful Negro satistician at Tuskegee who has tucked away a million facts about the colored people, can find no song like it in all his files. But I have found out for myself what it meant. I have looked into the exodus of Negroes from the south for Collier's. I have traveled through Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and parts of Louisiana and Tennessee in recent months. I have talked with Negroes in Atlanta, Montgomery, New Orleans, Vicksburg, Memphis, and elsewhere. I went to Tuskegee Institute. I went into the only town in the United States, that is populated solely by colored folks—the only town that has a negro mayor, a negro policeman, and a negro postmaster. I talked with Negro farmhands, lawyers, preachers, editors and business men in several Southern states. I rode in a railroad coach with CHRISTMAS SALE NEGRO DOLLS No. 411- This brown skin doll is one of hot, hot, hot, hot. It is 11 inches high, walk up to 12 inches wide, and greatly greatly dressed and unbreakable. She has long black curtains. Price $4.99. Negro migrants leaving the Yasoo and Mississippi Valley via Memphis for Cincinnati and other points north. I know now why a black boy from Georgia salting hot asphalt in the broiling sub on a North Carolina highway back in 1917 was singing joyfully: Boll weevil here, boll weevil there, Oh, Locusts alike! glad! To millions of hungry and oppressed blacks laboring for a more subsistence on the cotton plantations of the south, the invasion of the Mexican boll weevil, laying waste the acres of the plantation owners, was nothing less than an act of Providence. To these blacks who read the Bible and believe every word of it, the plague of the boll weevil was but the hand of God laid heavily upon their taskmasters. Who Will Pick the Cotton? The Negro in the towns and cities was most exultant; he beckoned to his brothers and sisters on the farms to lay down the shovel and the hoe; now that actual starvation confronted them, and come into the cities, where employment awaited them at certain wages. The Negro on the bankrupt plantation laughed at the holl weevil and made his way to the cities. And the penniless, inflicted, care-free, everlasting, change-seeking Negro of the towns fell in line with this movement and moved on too. (To Be Continued Next Week) PHILADELPHIA, PA. Election of Officers The Philadelphia Division No. 10 of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was honored by the visit of the "Delegation to Africa" and the presence of the Hon. Marcus Garvey on Wednesday night. December 5. The delegation comprised Lady Dempire Vinton Davis, fourth assistant president-general; Sir Robert L. Poston, secretary-general; and Attorney Vanow of the Detroit division. Because of the admirable selection of representation we are looking forward to big achievements and great reports on the return of the plenum tenacities. We are mindful of the fact that these warthees are going to the motherland, the land of future possibilities for Negro independence and self-government. On Thursday night, December 6, was held an election of officers for the division, under the supervision of the president-general, Hon. Marcus Garvey. With the exception of a president, the vacant offices were filled as follows: First vice-president, Mr. Henry Hodge; third vice-president, Mr. George W. Rice; general and financial secretary, Miss Mazle King; secretary of the ladies' department, Mrs. Mary Sharp, chapelin, Rev. J. H. D. Underwood. All financial members of the Philadelphia division will please turn out on December 20, at 8.15 p.m. when the president-general will supervise the election of a president. This meeting will take place in the Salon Baptist Church, 12th street, below Rainbridge. The coming of the Hon. Marcus Garvey has brought satisfaction to every loyal member of the organization, and thereby re-established peace and harmony in the division. We are ready now to go right on doing big things. PAPERBACK Bird's Eye View of Jan Christian Smuts Jan Smuts, the Boer bird of South Africa, blew up at an English meeting the other day because some of the Englishmen proposed to give the Hindus of South Africa the right to vote and say something 'as to how the burg should he bossed. Jan let out a howl that was a cross between a feyena's yell and a Lion's roar. He said that if they handed the vote to the Hindus, they would also have to slip it to the cultled population and that the two of them together would make the offay colony look like a hunk of cheese. Jan is the same boob who fluttered around the Peace Conference and got the name of being the generous goat with an over supply of the milk of human kindness. But that was the bunk. Ever since Jan came into the official arm chair he has played 'the strong arm act to a frazzle and a fare-you-well. England is getting rather uneasy about the dispositions of her shady populations and figures that it is time to do something. Of course Jan hollered. It was hollering time. Because South Africa is a long ways from base. Juvenile Orchestra of 40 An annual treat is in stores for Harlem on Friday evening, December 14, when at St. Mark's Hall, 87 West 188th street, a juvenile orchestra of the city, consisting of over forty children, will make their bow. The little performers are products of the David Johnson Music Studio, and Friday's recital is the first of a series of annual events, unique in Harlem's musical life. Dancing is scheduled to follow the recital, which begins at 8:30 p. m. and lasts two hours. THE NEWOR WORLD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1988 NATIVE CLERGY NEEDED (From The Gold Coast Leader) (From The Gold Coast Leader) We publish today a circular letter which was issued by the Venerable Archdeacon Crawther, D. B., to the friends of missions and others during his last visit to the western province. It is an appeal for funds in aid of the "Nativo African Bishopric's Fund"; and, as the name implies, it is a call to support an institution-purely African, of African initiative, and which will give to West Africa in time a purely African church governed and disciplined by its own clergy. It is thus, in a sense, a national church and one of those avenues of self-help, which we as a people cannot afford to ignore. The work in the Niger Delta it appears, has been carried on for the past thirty years, and its history is both interesting and fascinating. It will be remembered that some years back the Rt. Rev. Bishop James Johnson, D. D., toured the Gold Coast and chorewhee, trying to interest the people in the founding of the Native African Bishopric's Fund, and he had in view the raising of the sum of £8,000, which invested would yield sufficient revenue to provide for the pay and unkeep of an African Bishop, one of the conditions which appears to have been imposed by the Primate. It is obvious that, if the Delta pastorate was to be an independent African church it should be free from foreign support. The archaeology tells us that this sum of £8,000 has all been reached gave a few hundred pounds, and the appeal is for patriotic Africans to come forward with the balance required. We have before us the example of Sierra Leone, where friends have recently con- tributed as much as £150, and here in the Gold Coast we cannot afford to do less, and we ask our people to do all they can. The Path of Nationhood It is true we have many churches and creeds and systems in West Africa; but we have not to alm at a church after the doctrine of Christ, which takes account of our individuality as a people, and which can aid in the production of a healthy African manhood and womanhood, free from cant, hypocrisy and humbling, and free also from the cult of modern civilization. We live in an age when men fear the truth and hide from the truth. It is like a person of weak sight blinking at the sun. We cannot stand the truth, and if Christ came back and insisted upon telling us what we are and what we must do to be saved, we would probably stone him and crucify him. What is worse, we have eyes, but we see not; ears but hear not, and our understanding is stunted because of our unwillingness to learn, our stubbornness in thinking that we are past saving, and that we ourselves are past masters in the art of salvation according to our particular church tenets. We do want an awakening in the churches as in the State, and, for ourselves, we shall welcome original thought in the church, something that will strike at the root cells in the church and guide us in the path of nationhood. By and for Africans We fear we have drifted from our main purpose, but we do not regret it, and our only regret will be, if any will out of resentment refuse to give in a good cause. We do not say that the Niger Delta Pastorate is going to revolutionize thought and conduct in West Africa, or that it has any inherent merit of its own not common to others. But this much we do say, that it is a church apart as originated by Africans and to be controlled by Africans. We do not say that it is to, or should, supersede other churches directly of foreign origin, but what we do urge is that if other churches merit support at African hands, much more deeply should the Delta Pastorate claim our sympathy and support. We do not think it is the policy of the church to step in where others are actively at work, but we see no harm where a deliberate invitation issues from a given community for communication with a particular pastorate. And in this respect we should say there is at least room in the Gold Coast. We know what difficulties our Gold Coast friends have had recently in: the matter of church management and affairs at Acea and Secondlee, and how difficult it has been for the voice of the churchmen to be heard in its councils and in its educational policy. A corrective, we say, would be in these enlightened days the introduction of an African pastorate in the Gold Coast, and we commend the idea to those who have experience in the matter, to men like the Hon. T. Hutton-Mills, Mr. Mark Hansen, Captain P. A. Renner, Mr. Crowther Neol and others. Spirit of Truth Above all things do we in the Gold Coast require an educated clergy. We want men of light and leading commanding the confidence of the people to lead us in the way of God. We want men of humility to point us to the cross; we want men of character to lead us to the Christ. We do not want it said that anything will do for us in the Gold Coast. In point of culture our clergy are decidedly below par, and we must set to work and remedy the deficiency. In this connection we A. K.

GARVEY IN DETROIT Enthusiastic Meeting of the Division in the Interest of the African Delegation From the Detroit Independent (Dec. 1) On Sunday afternoon and night, Dec. 2, Marcus Garvey, founder and president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, spoke before a large gathering in the Detroit Armory, Brush and Larned streets, and in Turner's Hall, 1448 Sherman street, at night. The meetings were well arranged and president-over by the Hon. Rudolph Smith, third assistant president-general, who spoke on both occasions, receiving many plaudits from his bearers. The afternoon meeting program was quite a treat, with the beautiful musical selections from the choir, the band, and quartet solo sang by Mrs. Sarah Smith, accompanied by Mrs. Inez Morrith, after which Prof. J. Renli Barbour rendered a piano selection, followed by a solo by Mr. George Rundall. The Hon. Abina D. Petitfond, ex-president and honorary commissioner for Michigan, gave a very interesting lecture on the seriousness of the times and explained how Negroes should unite now to build up for themselves industries and commerce; also a government to protect their rights everywhere. He finally made a strong appeal for members, with a good response. Mr. Leonard Smith, first vice-president, made an interesting talk, which met with great approval from his hearers. Bey, A. D. Chandler, time and again captured his hearers on the subject of leadership when he touched upon leadership of the past and drew a comparison with the present, to which he praised the fighting spirit of the U. N. I. A. leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and all of his loyal assistants. The Hon. Rudolph Smith then rose and touched upon the conditions of leadership by the race and how the Negroes accepted this fearless man who suffered for the cause of a suffering race from the incipiency of the movement up to the present age, and how, despite suffering, this man still holds the reins for a redeemed Africa in the person of His Excellency, The Hon. Marcus Garvey. Mr. Garvey then arose amid Gunnerous applause, and launched out to lecture upon his mission to the city of Detroit for the raising of funds to send delegates to Africa—numbering four—two of whom are members of the Detroit division, namely: Sir Robert L. Boston, secretary-general of the U. N. L. A., and Attorney Van Lowe, assistant to Attorney Alonzo B. Petitford. The other two are the Supreme Postulate and Lady Humbertia Vinton Davis, fourth assistant president general of said organization. The meetings, both afternoon and evening, met with financial success and the citizens of Detroit will not forget them in a hurry. Also the inspiring lectures of the Hon. Marcos Garvey. 135TH ST.

LAWRENCE In the march of events the human family travels hither and thither, clamoring for greater changes within their respective groups, seeking inspiration from every source. While certain reconciliation prevails, a spirit of unrest seemingly spreads in many sections of the world, winning adherents as it moves along, because of a self-determination spirit and the right of each respective group to govern itself. The world's unrest has now become a very serious problem among the powerful nations of the earth because of the asservicences on the part of the weaker peoples to govern themselves. Deception of the Europeans When the self-determination spirit began to take root in every part of the world, and the Egyptians, Indians and members of the African race attempted to establish a government for each respective race group, dissatisfaction prevailed among European colonizers, who exclaimed that these members of the darker races were incapable of governing themselves. Much pressure was brought to bear against these people by the Europeanans. Meanwhile members of the white races in Europe were given more attention and a proper understanding was reached, to the benefit of the weaker people of the white race groups in Central Europe. Though they were apportioned certain territories and divided up into small nations, such as Czecho-Slavakia, Judeo-Slavia, Lithuania, Poland, Estonia and Latvia, they were permitted to govern themselves, while the darker peoples, such as Africa, India and certain sections of Asia Minor, were ignored by these European colonizers. While it is true that Egypt secured independence, Great Britain's power may be seen dictating the affairs of the Egyptians, with many motives beneficial to the Anglo-Saxon. This member of the dark race has had to fight its way along energetically to bring about self-government, while other darker peoples of Great Britain's colonial possessions failed to receive a complete privilege of governing themselves, even though they show their ability to do so. India, with her teenage rallions, and Africa with her like amount, suffer because of European solitary aggrandizement in exploiting their colonial possessions of their mineral wealth for their own benefit. France's Hold As is known, many European governments control large interests in Africa. The most prominent of these governments in Africa are Great Britain, France, Belgium and Portugal, while Italy and Spain are having difficult times with their African subjects. France, however, must be considered as a large colonizer, ranking in second place to Great Britain universally, and exceeding Great Britain in Africa. Her colonial possessions in Africa have an area of 4,500,000 square miles, with a population of about 50,000,000 subjects, who are depended upon in wartime to protect France's interests as well as in time of peace to labor for her enrichment. Africa possesses great natural wealth of every variety. Great Britain, France and Belgium exploit their African possessions to the greatest extent, which is largely consumable for their increased wealth, with a firm grip on their colonial possessions. France has turned her attention to her possessions in Africa, which is the most important PE-RU-NA For COUGHS & COLDS And Every Catarral Ailment The Family Standby for Over Fifty Years Tablets or Liquid Sold Everywhere SPECIAL OFFERS FOR XMAS Direct from manufacturer to consumer at factory prices, for Christmas, Candies, late, at 98c, 25b, 25h, 12.4h, 12.4h, Chocolate Covered Cherrie, 98c a, 12.4h, $11.00, 13.00, lay in tray, Chocolate, 12.4h, lay in tray, Chocolate, 12.4h, lay in tray, Chocolate, 12.4h, lay in tray, Chocolate, 12.4h, Apricot, Nougat, 1-1b, Boston Cranberry, 1-1b, Boston Cranberry, 1-1b, with mention of this paper, dealers and salesman wanted everywhere.

Because of the great potential wealth of Africa many white nations are not willing to have the African natives govern themselves, and for that reason every obstacle is placed in the pathway of these people, who attempt to bring about self-government. Because of this unfair treatment and the hypocritical methods applied by European colonizers, whose propaganda is scattered in every part of the world and financed by them, to divide the Negroes in education, religion, color and nationality, the Universeal Negro Improvement Association came on the scene, with the infention of uniting the Negroes of the world into one solid whole, to build up industrially and commercially and establish a government in Africa to protect Negro life and property, like other races and nations are protected through their respective governments. SHERRILL ENUNCIATES AMERICAN SPIRIT therefore with a false doctrine or a false idea. We are Christians, we believe in Christ, but you must realize that the world in which you live expects something of us, and that something must be in conformity with the systems that regulate the world. We are in a world of sin, we are under our own reign, our own government because of that sin, and if you must exist alongside all other men you must partake of the world's attitude. That we fell from grace, that we shunned and made it possible to take on these different things we see, today is known to God, and in His own good time is going to bring about that spiritual change that will affect all of us at the same time. God has no more love for the black man than for the white man. God loves all humanity and he is not going to give you any special privilege, pay you more courtesy than anybody else. It would be unfair to the others. Do not believe you have any special mission from the spiritual side. You are a sinner like everybody else. Attend to your duties, believing in God and knowing that Christ came to redeem the world, but do not take on a job that was not yours and was never intended for you. If God intended to make Christians of the Negro race he would have made us. But he intended to make human beings. Do not mistake your calling. You will lose out.

Colonial fiction has been for generations now a synonym for provincialism and secondate aesthetic values. Rarely has it even attempted to be fair and humane, scarcely ever has it achieved pure artistry or sterling humanism. And only in the novel of local color has the colonial scene come into the hands of the masters. There was both in England and France, a promising flare when the cult of romantic exoticism turned toward the South Seas and the Tropics, but the paths of Pierre Loti and Conrad, unfortunately for the portrayal of African life, turned to farther, more exotic, ports and left Africa to the exploiting charitarians, the incompetent romancers, and the moralistic misfortries. And from these tainted or in-artistic sources, what is known as "colonial literature" has sprung. Buenin France not only is there developing a new colonial literature that is the portrayal in fiction of widely divergent human cultures. In other forms of art and art appreciation, aesthetic cosmopolitanism has been achieved, but fiction has always seemed to reflect the narrower, more stunted values, and to have absorbed the worst provincialisms and prejudices of the Caucasian and European blues. However emancipated the elite, the masses will never respond to the broader view until it expresses itself in the forms of the popular taste and the arts of the masses. Thus the importance, the peculiar social importance, of a broadening view in drama and fiction—the popular arts. When they begin to reflect cosmopolitan humanism, then to the wakeful eye the great day of humanity almost dawns. And whatever else may be said of it, Rene Maran's "Batoula" and its tremendous vogue are very largely responsible for this chance, at least with respect to contemporary fiction. Before Maran, it was either landscape with the native. Incidentally thrown in as a conventionalized figure, or the life of the white colonial with the native life as an artistic fall. Even more so than in the American school of fiction was the native in colonial literature merely a dark note by which the false high-lights of the painting were keyed up; or as General Anglovant aptly puts it—"In most of the novels, the Negro plays but a secondary part appearing only to enhance the interest of the story by acting as a toll to the European characters described in the romance or drama. But a revolutionary change has occurred—there is a strong interest in the human portraiture of native life in and for itself, and without the hold realism of *Naturalia* this never would have been. So, however rife this point of view may have been among artists and authors, without the creation of a new taste in the reading public it could never have come to public expression, but the public mind, with its predisposition for fake and hurdled chromes, by this brilliant, dating etching of Maraus has led to so speak, resurfaced for a new impression, at once more artistic and true. With the stylistic capacities of *Chaetan* or *de Manpassant*, Maraus almost to have chosen to be the role of colonial literature, and with itself modern and cutting hyphenated to drive the idea and hypnotize BISHOP I.

Browne. out of its traditional point of view. It was herocic work—and required to be done by the Negro himself—thijs revolutionary change from sentimentality to realism, from caricature to propagation. And if I am not very mistaken, Maran's real thrust is more anti-romantic and anti-sentimental, than anti-immoralist; it is the literary traduces whom he would annihilate. Let us have the unbiased truth and the same angle of vision for all; that is Maran's literary creed. Gaston Joseph's "Korn" is written from quite another point of view—more humane, less objective—it is by his sponsor, General Anglomant, ex-governor-general of the Colonies, characterized as an antidote for "Batouil." It is an important book, in itself—as the winner of the Grand Prix de Literature Coloniale for 1933, and as reflecting the more enlightened official colonial attitude. Not any too well translated in the English version this romance in the original is a smooth, competent, restrained narrative, the work of, Gaston Joseph, a French colonial "official whose fifteen years' service in Senegal, on the Ivory Coast, in the Cameroons, Gabon and the Middle Congo and whose authorship of a splendid monograph on the Cote d'Ivoire" (1917) guarantees competence and sincerity. Korn is the outstanding figure. All else, colonial officialdom, wife, natives, nature, are but so much background for this sober, full-length portrait of the man as a lad, a village runaway, at the coast in turn seoul-apprentice, house-boy, cook, trusted dragonman to M. Lere, colonial administrator, and finally as a climax to a seemingly successful career, through merit and his good offices, interpreter and chief of the Asséancell. But at the height of his career comes a sudden decline of fortune—caught midway his efforts at tribal reform between reactionary factions of the medicine-men and the inroads of disease. Korn succeeds to the environment—and passas, a discredited and deported exile, to a doctelle, resigned and in the Gaboons. It is an unprofitable life, but not an unprofitable story. Many of the peculiarly difficult forces in the life of the native engaged in government service and living in the penumbra of the two civilizations are for the first time realistically and truthfully depicted. This psychological borderland of civilization has its special types and its peculiar problems, and Koffi is one of the best available ways of exploring it. Efts we cannot quite share the exhilaration of General Anglonavant in hauling Koffi as "dilling a void in our tropical colonial literature" for the book seems really to be of greater documentary than artistic interest and worth. Humane, comprehensively attempting to free it from the attitude of condescension, with a painfully strained readme, it is throughout a landable effort, and in part a success. Nowhere is the book more successful in breaking through its limitations than in the account of Koffi's love affair and eventual marriage with Afone, become in life the muse of his absence the mistress of Mr. Martin, the white tradesman. It is a brilliant bit of writing, in which French literature exceeds by virtue of its combined candor and subtility—the woman, torn between love and gain, facing the certainty of motherhood; the two men, each uncomfortably separated behind his tribal ideals,pathy and respectability, awaiting in creature but genuine rays the attitude of patternity which only Nature could solve. And fate that has eventually to be rewarded Koffi a son. fut post. Kellil's is a life of social but not of moral defeat; in this, I think, it is typical of his inadequate but inevitable compulsion; the buffer class between the black and white. What a combat it is, especially for the fallate mind, to strain between the forces of two powerful but inconvenient cultures, to be forced to live in terms of two compiling but incompatible systems of habit and thought. Kellil's defeat is not taken lightly by the author, however it may be by the supernatural reader, nor by General Anglouwant when he says: "Where authority and our will combine to try to lead the peoples combined to our guardianship toward higher social conditions, by creating a picked body of natives to act as leaders and cultivating their development, how many powerful secret force oppose our actions! The description of the new king's life, a target for the attacks of the witch doctors, opposed by all the representatives of an ignorant post, is all the more striking because of the enforced restraint of a style which nevertheless evokes so many sights familiar to colonials." Another remarkable book; also with a noteworthy preface, is "Samba Dlouf's Adventure," by the popular romanceans Jean and Jerome Tharand. Among their popular successes the brothers Tharand seem to have turned inside to an unusually mature purpose, and, for all that their accustomed "purple patches" turn up occasionally, give us a very vivid and accurate and tasteful chronicle of the life of Samba Be a Winner THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1983 Dlouf and "his great but unexpected adventure to the battlefields of Europe. This book makes one peculiarly regretful that as yet no artistic narrative of the very peculiar war experience of the American Negro in France has been written. Painful as the contrast might be, such a companion picture must eventually be painted, and for the double purpose of inspiring it and of recalling the French version of the Nemo in arms I have asked permission to translate La Rondonne de Samba Dlouf. "Already in its eleventh edition, the work has promise of very considerable vogue, and it deserves it, not merely as the romance of Samba Dlouf, but because there in the background, not overobtrusive but still quite real, looms theole of the 113th Black Battalion. The book is dedicated to Andre Demaison in these charming words: "Few have penetrated the psychology of the West African native as yourself. From the Niger to the coast, from Senegal to Gambia, you have mastered subtle tongues and learned their curious folkways. In their villages, deep in the bush, and forest, you have passed years and years, living their life; you have ridden at large with them, navigated their vast rivers; wandered from lake to lake in their long canoes or by motor launch, heaving their palavers day in and day out; and when they came to fight on our shores you followed fortune in one of their battalions. And all this vast treasury of the people and ways of Africa you have prodigially shared with us that we might write this story, woven out of the fragments of your talk, and to render it more true to life you have furnished a thousand details, now from the pouch of the Outloof, now from that of the Mandingoes, which are to you as familiar as your native Perlgord. "Only—my friend, your blacks talk like academicians," we had constantly to be saying to you—to which you have always answered—Good! heavens! That would you have me do? I give you their words as they speak them. If their appeach is subtle and rich and full of fine shading, that simply reveals the speech of the Outloof, now from that not quite the brutes that a mediocre colonial literature has been pleased to paint them. These blacks could not speak as they do but for a background of civilization which, however simple it is, is nevertheless a civilization. "In his true dignity as a man of his people, may Samba Dionf hear favorable witness for his race." This is the story of a simple Dakar fisherman, premier craftsman in his calling, who, on the verge of a successful courting, sets out through the jungle to bring back from the distant land of his mother the patrimony of cattle left him by his mother's brother. He reached a village of the Mandingo just as they arguing be called upon for their quota of conscripts for the French colonial army, and at the end of a palm-wine debauch recover himself bound with thongs on the way to Manse, an unwilling substitute for the schoning château's son. Here he is enrolled and eventually embarked for France in a heterogeneous battalion of all the races of the French coast hinterland and Soudan. We are transported with them in rapid impressionistic word pictures, the best of which, with the possible exception of some brilliant sketches of the jungle, are those of the camp scenes of the black troops behind the lines. Their native contests, their hardships, their illnesses, their daily chatter are a triumph of descriptive art. And then occurs an incident which, remarkably, is exceptionally French. The men hunters, traders, tillers of the soil warrior chateau under the " slave work" to which they have been assigned. They rapidly want to see the war and mandfully want to bear it. Lomine Cassé, with the corporals of four companions, is commissioned to take their points to the adjutant. The adjutant lasts there is logic, there is sincerity, there is courage, he reports to the commandant the commandant to the colonel, he in turn to the brigadier and then happens what in the English or American army would have been a muscular in three days the battalion is ordered to the taming line. It is Simona Dínguis fortune to be galantly wounded in the first assault attack, and then the story follows his fortune, his hospital experiences, the native letter from home, one with the disunfortunate shadow of gossip about the idiosyncrasy of his betrothed, his patient, good-natured convulsion, his decoration with the croix de guerre, and finally, after three years in all, his transhipment home by way of the country of his mother, where he expects at last to come into possession of the cattle he started out to fetch. There also fate awaits him—in cunning chechery his uncle palms off on him the oldest and fiddle animals of his herd; a hurricane in crossing, a river carries off the greater part of the paltry flock; but another owl awaits. The feast of the home-coming is spoiled by the suspicious absence of Yanima and her father, and finally comes the disillusionment of old rumors as he encounters her next day with her nursing infant. And then, robbed of his occupation by his wounds, dependent solely on his government, pension, disillusioned—there seems a likelihood of a total breakdown in his life—and the native African stoclism scares happiness out of the rules, as he goes to Yanima, he without parimortry, she without honor, but for each the more necessary to the other for all that. There is an Enoch Arden and almost illicile charm to the story; for all that there is a true epic in the background; the night of his home-coming, his battalion and his compatriots go "over the top," and even a sophisticated reader reads the last lines through a moist, old-fashioned blush which is, after all, I suppose, the acid test of romance. Notable as these books are, they loot something when contracted with "Batouala," with which indeed must be contrasted all colonial fiction of this decade. They are, the one condescendingly, the other sentimentally, more favorable—they will both be more liked and preferred by the average man. But they lack the great artistry, the daring objectivity, and more than that they leave the great dilemma of colonial imperialism conceived behind the cloaks of optimism and rhetoric. "Batouala," gains its universality of appeal and interest and its greater artistic validity from the very fact of its candor, its ruthlessness, and its humana but emotional human portraiture. Instead of reinforcing that decadent cult, of the primitive which is the pastime of the sophisticated, Rene Maran insists upon treating the dilemma of the primitive life of Africa of today as it stands between the stagnant virtues of simplicity and the corrupting half-civilization of exploiting economic imperialism. The message—and there is one, for all that is not preached into the story, is this: "If you insist upon civilizing, civilize on the pattern of good virtues and not on the scheme of your vices. Do not discredit your civilization at its core; only as it is sound there, it is sound 'at home.' There has scarcely been a more forceful indictment of the defects of expansive European civilization than the mute gestures, the sad reproach and the shrewd commentary of these simple folk of Ubangi-Sharik. With this creed, Rene Maran enters the lists neither of the race partisans nor of the colonial apologists and propagandists, but those of the social surgeons, the indicting idealists, if you will—the prophetic reformers. While rendering due praise to others, we can take much satisfaction in the fact that the path to candid portraiture, of the colonial system and of native life has been shown by one from whom it was least of all expected, but through whom it comes with the greatest acceptability—an educated Negro colonial official. But we must not forget that the glory of all these writers, Maran's as well, is the common glory of the tradition of French culture and the great gift, as yet unaccepted, of the French genius to the western world. One will not say it is exclusively French, exceptional individuals elsewhere have had and still have it—but only of the French can we say that it is characteristic. But of the three possible angles of literary approach, quite uniquely illustrated by these three novels, which shall prevail, which has the greatest artistic potentialities—the humanitarian, the sentimentally romantic, or the aesthetically objective? We predict the eventual triumph of the non-moralistic and purely aesthetic approach—art for its own sake combined with that stark cult of veracity—the truth, whether it hurts or not, for the sake of eventual peace of human understanding. We have further encouraging signs of the spread of this point of view in the approach to things African, "Ebony and Ivory" of Llewellyn Powys is an especially welcome work as one of the first English books that carry this point of view consistently. And quite recently, again in French, we have the charming travel sketches of a French woman traveler, artist and educator, Lucie Consturier, whose work, while it is not fiction, exemplifies this new tendency by differing as widely from the average travel sketch as the new colonial novel differs from its predecessors. Her sketches alone show that she has been able to find the common human denominator, through the search for beauty. Her prose text, detailing her trip through Upper Nigeria from Kankan by an unrequited route through Keromane to Macronla, shows that the eo that sees beauty sees without bias, and can look at human life as objectively and profitably as at nature herself. She applies to social values the same graceful touch. Of the short-sighted ethnographers and their preconceptions, she has this to say: "I am not over fond of ethnology. I would respect it more if it were merely a science, more or less exact, like the rest." But it is too often an art of columnist peoples through invidious comparisons—like so much history. To set out the external customs and trappings of the life of a people for the life of the people itself—that is the still more serious failure and confusion of ethnography. It exhibits the chain and collar of the dog and says to us, "Behold, the dog."—Shows us the cell and dungeon for the prisoner, the string and binding wrappings, and insists, "Here is the garland of fruits and flowers." Throughghout she is true to her intention to extricate human values from more externalities of manners and customs. It is a charming book, born of a sympathetic, but more important still, an amenable mind. Let us take as an example her purely artistic impressions of a 'fetish-dance at Zorecore. She found the fantastic pantomime of the Niuomuns to have all the complexity and dexterity of a sophisticated ballet-pantomime, with charming conventionalizations, artistic, refinement, grotesque, but, decorative. "I was aware," she says, "at hearing the ensemble of the native orchestra of a completely of rhythm perhaps more subtly than that of any other land, even African, which by default of special musical training I could not record, but which seemed almost to surpass notation. . . . The phases of the pantomime, making allowances, were essentially those of our own best ballet conventions, which were achieved—a more difficult task, in spite of an excessively grotesque masking of the body which seemed quite to rob it of semblance to the human form." And a little further on more interesting still, these observations—"Far from having, as even the Greeks, the built of nakedness, here we had the aesthetic passion and motive of pure abstractly decorative art. There was in the dance movements that same rigid and precise conventionalization as in the plastr art of the fetishes—it was an evocation of symbolism, profound, but ornamental, a creative artistic representation, not merely a crude imitation, moor or less happy, of natural forms. I seem to recall having read in the narratives of travellers, apropos of African dances, that they were gestures and contortions. Such descriptions create a false impression and lead to false expectations. They suggested to me a primitive, almost bestial, character and I expected to see that. On the contrary, I found quite the reverse. Everything among these Negroes was artifice and discipline, and the deeper I advanced into the forest, the more rigorous and conventionalized I found their life and ways. Their art shows crude realism, and for that very reason the dancers saw me men exclusively, never women." But, pirdon—one should read the book itself. How far such points of view will upset the stereotyped interpretations and preconceptions, one cannot say, but we can safely predict a great reappraisal when Africa is eventually seen, as it must be, not through the traders', nor the military surveyors', nor even through the missionaries' but with the artists' eye. Thus we look at our own culture, or we could not endure the sight of it. We know what the conception of Oriental culture was: curious, perverse, childish, general, until our eyes were artistically opened and we saw it to be disciplined, profound, aesthetic, ultra-sophisticated; and through the same medium, Africa will ultimately be estimated as a land of its own unique beauty and civilization. A Washington audience composed of colored people recently hissed an orchestral rendition of that old familiar ballad, "I wish I was in Dixie."

Cullen, a Negro student at New York University, is the winner of the second prize in the Witter Bynner undergraduate poetry contest, the Poetry Society of America announced yesterday. The contest was held under the society's auspices. To Maurice Lessmann of the University of Chicago went the first prize for his poem, "In the Range Country." Cullen's poem, second out of 700 submitted by the representatives of 63 colleges and universities, is "The Bellad of the Brown Girl," a tale of the tragedy of the lover who foresook the "illy maid" for the "dark brown girl" with all her gold. He concludes: Oh! withers, never barter love For gold or fertile lands. For love is meat and love is drink. And love heeds love's commands. who causes me to miss breath his nose. And rue it, till he dies. 2. The poet is the son of the Rev. Frederick A. Cullen, 234 West 131st street, pastor of the Salem Methodist Church. He is 25 years old and a student in the College of Arts and Pure Science. He has written much verse, but says that it is not his conscious purpose to devote his poetic gifts to the problems of his race. "I am interested in poetry for the sake of poetry, and not for propananda purposes," he said yesterday, "but I find that in spite of myself I am actuated by a strong sense of race IF U DON'T C CONSULT DR.

This grows upon me I find, as I grow older; and, without it struggle against if it colors my writing, I fear, in spite of everything I can do. There have been many things in my life that have hurt me and I find that the surest relief from these hurts is in my writing. One thing, for instance, that I have never been able to forget happened when I was 9 years old. A white boy of my own age kept looking at me and I was happy and friendly and smiled at him. Instead of smiling in return he scowled at me and called me 'nigger.' A poem I wrote about the incident only a few months ago has helped me to forget that unhappy moment to some extent. After graduation Cullen plans to teach and to continue his writing.

Se celebra en los Estados Unidos el centenario de la famosa Doctrina y las ceremonias han sido varias y de diverso alcance. Pero, como suele acontecer, ha venido a culminar la memoración en la consagración de otra Doctrina, por lo menos bastante distinta de la original. El Peor de los Enemigos de Nuestra Raza—Iniciación de un Movimiento en Contra de los Inconformes Con Su Linaje—Un País Para el Etiópico—Tentativa Para Capturar Nuestra Organización—Somos o No Somos, Tal es el Problema—Haciendo Historia En la revista literaria "Historia Contemporánea" de esta ciudad y en su número de septiembre próximo pasado aperece en un extenso artículo la biografía de nuestro honorable Presidente, por el mismo escrita, en el cual leemos del siguiente modo: El secretario de Estado, en efecto, pasando revista en forma grandilocuente y solenne a la función de la famosa política, ha sentado oficialmente una serie de coriolarios a ella que, a la luz del examen desapasado, extiende sur jurisdicción y amplian su alcance en forma capital. De drástica política de protección asumida soberanamente por los Estados Unidos sobre el resto del continente en relación con las potencias extranjeras, pasa ahora la Doctorina Monroe, según la enunciara en Fila delfa el canciller de Washington, a ser pauta de acción de la Casa Blanca para garantizar también le estilidad de los gobiernos dispano americanos y la "integridad territorial" no la independencia política de sus naciones. Naci en la isla de Jamaica, posesión inglesa, el 17 de agosto de 1887. Mis padres eran negros. Mi padre era un hombre de inteligencia y carácter determinado, sin temor alguno a las conceuencias. Como todos los hombres de su temperamento se arriesgó a todas las empresas en el curso de su vida, fracasando al final de la jornada. Tuvo alguna fortuna, pero murió pobre. Mi madre era una cristiana conciente, surgamente bondadosa para la época en que vivió. Ella era el extremo opuesto de mi padre; él, severo, firme, determinado y fuerte, reusó siempre rendirse a la fuerza superior, toda vez que creyó tener la razón. Mi madre, por el contrario, se hallaba siempre en disposición de pagar el golpe con la sonrisa y dispensar la caridad al enemigo. De esta extraña combinación, treinta y seis años ha, vince a un mundo de pecados, de demonios y de carne. Digase lo que se quiera por sus partidarios nacionales y extranjeros, la Doctrina Monroe original, no ha sido jamás aceptada abiertamente y gratamente por los pueblos "protegidos" por ella; sin embargo, nadie míga que ha ejercido su misión en forma satisfactoria en determinados acontecimientos históricos del continente. Pero es indudable que la ampliación hecha a la Doctrina por el secretario Hughes, demiente la serie de verdaderas "enmiendas" que enunciaría al commemorar el centenario Monroe, provocará recelos, vivimos en muchas de las naciones hispanoamericanas, por no decir en todas. Creci en compañía de blancos y negros y nunca fui su victima porque hice respetar las fuerzas de mis brazos. Mi educación procedió de distintas fuentes; escuelas privadas, públicas, dos escuelas superiores y dos colegios. Mis profesores fueron hombres y mujeres de variada experiencia yibilidad y cuatro de ellos eran eminentes párocos. Me estudiaron y les estudié; con algunos simpatic despues de algunos años; con otros reñf por el hecho de no permitirles el que se me castigara. El pensar en ello producía en mi un efecto intolerable. Los Estados Unidos, en sus relaciones con el resto de América, deberian proceder ya siempre en la base de absoluta igualdad de personalidad jurídica con todas las naciones. De nada debe servir que las estadísticas económicas, los coefficients de población, las cifras de escudras y ejercitos, indiquen en forma aplastante la superioridad física de Norte América. Es un problema político, espiritual y práctico al tiempo, el que se ventila y no deberia olvidarse, por ello, las modalidades inductables de la raza que se divide con la anglo sajona el Nuevo Mundo. Fui aprendiz de tipógrafo en una edad temprana mientras asistía a la escuela y mi maestro, hombre de gran educación, me enseño muchas cosas cuando apenas contaba aún doce años, y a los catorce tenia yo suficiente inteligencia y experiencia para dirigir hombres, de los cuales obtuye consideración y respeto, debido a la entereza de mi caracter desde mi infancia. En mi edad temprana y en país natal, para mi no habia diferencia entre blancos y negros. Una de las propiedades de mi padre, en la cual vivi la mayor parte del tiempo, estaba junto a la de una familia de blancos, quienes tenian tres hijas y dos hijos, y el párroco, otro blanco a cuya iglesia atendian mis padres, era también vecino nuestro. Este tenia tres hijas y un hijo. Todos jugabamos juntos y la pequeñita de mis simpatías, como yo, no se daba cuenta de tal diferencia: éramos un para de totos inocentes, que nunca soñamos con los prejuicios raciales. Las protecciones, como los consejos, ofen cuando son inoportunos; y cuanto mayor, sea la superioridad de quien los impone, más Reduciendo quiza a un nivel vulgar los vuelos y la significación de la Doctrina Monroe, y sus deducciones actuales, significa una protección que Norte America se arrogo en 1823 el derecho de ejercer sobre diocio republicas independientes del continente. Los hechos consumados consagran casi todo en política y han consagrado, al calco de un siglo, La Doctrina Monroe. Cuando contaba yo catorce años, mi pequeña compañera en diversiones y yo fuimos separados; sus padres pensaron que era tiempo ya de trazar la línea divisoria, y la enviaron en compañía de una hermana a Edimburgo, con instrucciones de no comunicarse conmigo por el hecho de que yo era negro. Fué esta la vez primera en que noté que existia alguna diferencia entre la humanidad y que habian diferentes razas, las cuales tenían su propia vida social distinta y por separado. No preste gran atención a la separación cuando fui notificado de ello, porque durante mi asociación juvenil con los del vecindario, nunca pensé que ellos pudieran ser mejor que yo. Ahora, no es ni opportuno ni pridente agregar nuevos capítulos a la espontancia ley de protección. No estamos en 1823. Han pasado cien años. Los Estados Unidos no son lo que eran; han progresado enormemente. Pero Hispano América, proporcionalmente, ha progresado más todavía. Y empieza a no necesitar ni descar protección.--La Brensa, X. Y Después de mi primera experiencia en distinción de razas, jamás pensé en asociarme con niñas de otras razas, aunque hubieramos sido vecinos; en cambio difera en opinión en lo que a los varones concernia, con quienes y en unión de otros de mi raza continué mi sociabilidad. En nuestro desarrollo, amigos blancos y negros nos separamos, tomando diferentes cursos en la vida, y creci para ver mas y mas las diferencias on las razas. Mis compañeros de escuela, ya hombres, no me renoccieron por mas tiempo y entonces realicé que tenía que luchar por un puesto en el mundo, el cual no era muy fácil de conseguir. Personalmente no luché con grandes dificultades para adquirir colocación por haber sido siempre determinado, y a los diez y ocho años era ya capataz en un gran establecimiento tipográfico, en donde tenía bajo mi jurisdicción hombres de mayor edad. Victima de la Ley Inmigratoria La oficialidad y tripulación del vapor Baltic relataron a su llegada a New York la triste historia de una inmigrante irlandesa excedente que fue deportada por las autoridades americanas en el viaje precedente. Mary Brennan que así se llamaba dio a luz a la curenta horas de navigación y la infeliz falleció en la travésia. La infortunada era natural del condado de Sligo Irlanda, y regresaba por haber llegado cuando la cuota inglesa estaba ya totalmente agotada. Ella arriba a New York el dia primero del mes de noviembre proximo pasado a bordo del vapor Celtic, inmediatamente fue llevada a Ellis Island. El tres de moviembre llegó la orden de exclusión sobre la cual habia estas iniciales tráicas: L. P. G. (Sugeta a la caridad pública.) Entré de lleno en la vida pública; hice política activa en mi país, donde me causó gran disgusto el tratamiento de que mi raza era objeto. Viajé por centro y sur America, las Antillas y Europa y en todas partes hallé la misma dificultad—"Eres negro." Lei sobre nuestra lastimosa condición en norte America, y me pregunté: Dónde está el gobierno del hombre negro? Dónde está su rey y su reinado? Dónde está su presidente, su país, su embajador, su armada, su marina y sus grandes estadistas? No les pude encontrar y entonces declaré: "Yo les avudaré." La joven Bremnan no estaba casada y su alumbramiento debía ocurrir de un momento a otro. Seguir una carta que dejó a sus padres estos no sabían nada de lo que le ocurría y con dinero de una tia que reside en New York llegó a este puerto disputesta a permanecer en los Estados Unidos al menos hasta después de ser madre. Desde aquel gran momento se apoderó de mi ser una intranquilidad natural, por adquirir la oportunidad para ejecutar un algo en pro del adelantó de mi raza, y determinado a que el hombre negro no continuará por mas tiempo siendo la victima de las otras razas. Mi joven ambición me transportó a vuelos de gran imaginación y vl ange mi; como veo aún, un nuevo mundo de hombres negros, no peones, sirvientes o esclavos sino una nación de fuerte, causando la impresión consiguiente en la civilización contemporánea y una mueva luz en la alborada de la familia humana. Parece ser que durante su permanencia en Fellis Island contra un jurte resfriado que degenero más tarde en pulpisonia; al dia nueve del pasado mes salió con rumbo a Inglaterra a bordo el Baltic; según queda relatado a dúz liza en la travesia. La criatura murio a las pocas horas de nacida y la infeliz madre, apenada El Presidente Coolidge en mensaje anual el Congreso trajo a fondo los problemas de nuestra raza en el país, haciendo varias recomendaciones. He aquí el texto: "Entre nuestra población se hallan en la actualidad más de doce millones de individuos pertenecientes a la raza negra. Bajo nuestra Constitución sus derechos son tan sagrados como aquellos de cualquier otro ciudadano y es un deber tanto público como privado la protection de dichos derechos. El Congreso debe ejercer todos su poderes para prevenir y castigar el odio-scrimen del linchamiento, que si bien es verdad el Negro no es el unico que sufre en tal sentido, su raza propociona el mayor número de vivimas. "Ya se ha apropiado una considerable suma para dar a los elementos de esa raza instrucción teorica y practica en agricultura, y cerca de medio millon es recomendado para cursos de medicina en la Universidad de Howard, contribuyendo así a la educación de quinientos doctores de la raza, necesarios en cada año. Con respecto a la emigración de ese elemento a los centros industriales, propongo" la creación de una comisión compuesta de miembros de ambas razas, con el propósito de formular una política mejor en el entendimiento mutuo. Todos debemos regocijarnos en la realización de los resultados que perseguimos. Estas dificultades son hasta cierto extremo problemas locales, los cuales deben ser resultados por medio de la cooperación mutua y del sentimiento humano de cada comunidad. Tales metodos prometen mejor remedio que la intervención particular." En Defensa de los Hebreos El Dr. Chaim Weizmann, presidente de la organización protectora del sionismo hizo una calurosa defensa de los judios, en el banquete que estos celabraron en el hotel Commodore. He aqui sus principales declaraciones: La linea divisoria del barbarismo y la civilización, al menos en lo que concierne a los judios era el Vistula, antes de la guerra; ahora es el Rhin. Desgraciadamente no puede predecir que esta vaya a ser la barrera por mucho tiempo. Las vidas y hacidas de ocho millones de judios residentes en Europa corren inmínente peligro. Los informes recibidos en America, en los cuales se anuncian matanzas y movimientos antisemitas, no son exagerados. El odio contra los hebreos crece en Europa de día en día. Si ning preguntas porque, os diré que el viejo continente parece dotado de la propiedad del carneiro. Sobre los judios descargan siempre sus derrotas. En Europa todo el mundo hace responsable a los judios de las calamidades del bolshhevismo, del fracaso del capitalismo, de la perdida de la guerra por los imperios centrales de la victoria de Francia. Podemos decir que en rarismas ocasionas nos venos libres de ataques directos o indirectos. El Dr. Claiún Weizmann llega recientemente a los Estados Unidos con propósito de llevar a cabo una activa campaña en el país y en el Canadá para recatar fondos con que atender a los gastos de la agencia judía de Palestina. Según el mandato de la liga de las naciones esta agencia será responsable de todo el progreso a retroceso reconstructivo en la zona que se le ha confiado. Este representante de la agencia semita de Palestina ha aconsejado a los Estados Unidos que permanezcan apartados de la liga de las naciones, al menos mientras duren las circunstancias anomalales presentes. Projecto de Ley Sobre la Independencia Filipina Un proyecto de ley en que se provee por la completa independencia de las islas Filipinas para el primero de octubre de 1924, será presentado al senado por el senador democrata King, del estado de Utah. En el proyecto del senador King se prescribe que el pueblo filipino convoque una convención constituyente para que adopte una constitución-para el país en esa fecha o antes. La aceptación del proyecto impfica, naturalmente, la retirada de las tropas de los Estados Unidos del arquipelago. le siguió pocas, horas ma tarde. Entre los objetos que se encontraron en su oimarote figuran ciento sesenta y cinco pesos que habla reribido de su tia para venir a vivir con ella y una carta que la desgraciada habia dejado escrita a su madre. De ambas cosas se hizo cargo al capitan del buque y al llegar a Liverpool se remitió todo a Sligo, pueblo natal de la finada.

He has best work written on radio attention to call the attention of the public to its importance and the limited means and wide field in which it is becoming a stator in the every- day witness of men. According to situation it has been established that there are in practical use every day over 2,799,045 radio phones, with an interested audience of about 11,160,180. Now, how many are three of us included in this vast num- ber who are taking advantage of the opportunity to keep abreast of the times and be in touch with the daily affairs of men, as well as deriving unlimited pleasure after a hard day's work? Right now, while sitting at my desk, it would not only be a pleasure to me but of great benefit were it possible for me to "tune in" and hear Philadelphia. Cincinnati, or Chicago and know in a moment's time what is going on, for the radio electric wave travels as fast as do light rays, and it seems that distance is no barrier to one hearing distinctly, provided he has a good radio set and properly tuned up. Last week the broadcasting stations in England made arrangements with those in the United States to try out certain tests with the radio, tending messages across the great Atlantic Ocean. A New York daily paper had this to say about it: "Every broadcasting station in the United States suddenly became silent at 10 o'clock. Eastern standard time, while radio receiving apparatus the country over began listening for England. Eight British stations attempted for the next thirty minutes to achieve eastbound transatlantic broadcasting for the first time in radio history. A darkened ocean, chosen as more favorable than daylight, and an air that was hungled from count to conat, were staked as the best aids for negotiating the task. "At 10.10 p.m. England was heard. In the ensuing few minutes the British waves were being picked up at a rate that led officials in charge to claim success. Sounds of piano playing in Liverpool were heard distinctly at the Garden City receiving station, and shortly afterward the Radio Corporation station at Chatham. Mass. reported by wire that the same music had been picked up." Now, you can see from the foregoing that no one has yet been able to define the possibilities of radio. Each day new discoveries are being made and there is no telling what the future may develop in this mysterious sphere of activity. Just as England, was in touch with America a few nights ago, that etheric wave permitting us to hear piano phying and talking over 3,000 miles away, we can also perfect ourselves, and some day be talking with Jamaica, Bermuda, Barbados, Trinidad, or even South America. We first become "fans," learning all about making and operating a radio, not then some of us who are of a mechanical turn of mind can become experts and be of inducible benefit or use to the U. N. L. A. in carrying out its objects is our motherland. LESSON 2 Last week I told you about building a "crystal self" and how to connect the antenna and lightning switch. This is the most expensive net that can be bought or set up, and its radius for hearing or receiving is, only about 25 miles. This article will deal with a set costing a few dollars more in building or purchasing, but the results are for more satisfactory and amply repay one for his outlay of cash. If he is in a good locality, that is, not surrounded by too many amateur sets all working at the same time listening in, one has the pleasure of reaching broadcasting stations in a radius of from, four to five hundred miles. Now, after you have connected your wires and are all ready, the next thing is to "tune" up your set for listening to. Tuning means only getting your set in connection de shape to receive the ethereal wave so that the sound waves are condensed and then distributed so as to be heard through the phone. At first you will get a "whistling" sound, but, by gradually turning your variometer and adjusting it, that whistling will gradually cease and you will hear distinctly, some broadening station sending out a speech, a song, or an instrumental solo. Next in order to the crystal set is the "one bulb" or one tube set. As I have stated before, with this radio set, you can get excellent results for a distance of about 300 miles. For this kind of a set you can buy the WD 11, WD 12, UV 199, and other dry cell batteries. For storage batteries, you can get the UV 200, UV 201, and the UV 201A. Any dealer in radio supplies will instruct you what parts are necessary to build up a good one tube set. If you intend buying a set instead of building one yourself, then I would advise you to take along some friend who has a technical knowledge of radio trachines, for, although a radio set may look very nice to you from the outside, on thorough examination of it, you will almost invariably find that some makes especially, are loosely put, together, inferior material used in construction, and many other defects, which will cause you great trouble and annoyance after you get your set in working. Take along some one who has a set already working, and who knows something about electricity and how to set up a radio set. Are the History of the Nero World: President Coolidge's message to Congress definitely stamps him as one of America's greatest Presidents. For the short time that he has had the reins of government in his hands it is evident that not a city has passed by that he has not carefully surveyed the condition of affairs of the great government over which he presides. Neither has he failed to take a retrospective view of the situations of the past. His outspoken and clear-cut policies can easily be understood by the most unlettered among the citizens over whom he rules as first magistrate of this great republic. Much has been said in the past about other great Presidents. But whether President Coolidge is returned to the high office he now fills or not, he nevertheless has indelibly stamped his imprint upon the history of this country. Not unlike his predecessor, the deceased President Harding, he stands for the principles of his party. As it has truly been said already, he has not dodged a single issue; neither has he behind the unfinished business of the man whose place he took. This first message, if lived up to, must be productive of good results. In reading between the lines his policies is "Hands off Europe!" "Hands off the League of Nations!" "Let us set our own house in order and perpetuate the principles of the great Monroe Doctrine, whose centennial anniversary has just passed." Neither has he forgotten to consider each phase of decentralized work under his administrative guidance. In dealing text-like with these important phases, none has been omitted, and this message stands out not only as a masterpiece of the United States but as a political diplomatic masterstroke for his government and its future. The Negro has been as carefully considered in as concise a manner as is expedient to the situation. We trust that his counsellors will use care and caution in supporting the principles so fully defined by so conscientious a man as President Coolidge. PERCIVAL L. BURROWS. New York, December 8. WE'S GOOD AND GONE By ZUBIE ERNESTEIN LEMON You talk about a race can stand All miseries that come. A race that got from head to foot What Paddy gave the drum. This Negro race, all burnt and shot. And things too bad to tell. They've tried to make us all believe That we was born for—well! But, anyhow, this thing done changed. And, goodbye, sure as you are born You need not say it's cold up north. For, Bud, we're good and gone. We nursed your South once while you fought To keep us bound in chains; We stood your whip and patrolmen And worked while racked with pain; We ate your ash cake, peas and milk, While you ate toast and broth; But, thank the Lord, the time has come We'll help you eat this cloth; You had a chance to treat us right, But, no, you went right on And classed us with the lower brutes So now we're good and gone. You make and handle all the laws, Just as it suits your taste; You always set some dirty trap To catch this Negro race. We all are humble as a sheep, But still you kick us back And say we're burned to be a tom; That's why 'God made us black; But you'll see better very soon! Some good old sweet dawn, You say the crowd that built the South It sure is good and gone! It's not to mix up with your folks— We naturally love our own, And could always live side by side, And leave your folks alone; But let us feel that we are free To work and walk and talk And vote and ride just where we please And we will never balk; But us done tried you up and down, And been stuck by your them, So now you do the best you can— For we is good and gone! It's true we love the South all right, And, yes, we love God, too, And when He comes to help us out, What's left for us to do? You dare us to dispute your books, Let them he right or wrong; And all the cotton them boll weevil leave It was a clear night, with mellow moonlight streaming in the car, and the smoking compartment was well filled with travelers, many of whom, before retiring, were awaiting their first view of the famous Horseshoe Curve of Western Pennsylvania.' The announcement of the porter that "the horseshoe's three minutes west, gentlemen," was a signal for an exodus of smokers to the car platform where they could partake of the panoramic treat for which they had denied themselves an earlier retiring hour. "Seen the curve, sir?" inquired the efficient porter, as I continued to puff away on my pipe, all unmindful of the horsehoe and its incidental scenic effects. "Many times; and I suppose you see it every day; don't you?" I asked, as I watched the porter's face break into a half smile. "I've seen it every other day for the past two weeks, but today's my last trip this way until next year, I guess," he replied. "How's that? Are you quitting?" "No, not until the end of October," he answered. "I've got a two-week's run out of Pittsburgh, down the Ohio River, then back home to the kids. It's been a great season, too," he explained enthusiastically before. I took time to come strangely interested in the clean-out fellow, of splendid police and refined personality. "You see, I've been up this way the entire season. Had a run from New York to Canada for a whole month. Then, from New York to Washington. Next I was a chair-car man through Eastern Pennsylvania; and after this next run down the Ohio River, I shall have covered the principal cities in the East. I was glad to have the opportunity, because the kids don't know a whole lot about the geography and many other things up this way, and it's going to be a lot of fun to be able to tell them of my personal observations all through the East. Then, too, I've made quite a few notes about the kind of work the colored people are doing up North, and the fine wages they're getting. To tell the truth I wouldn't go back home again if it were not the kids. I owe them something, and I guess I'm duty bound to go back to them," he concluded, as the half-smile gave away to a momentary expression of sadness. "When you say you're going back home, what do you mean," I asked, pointedly. "Florida," he answered in a clear tone. "And it's going to be a pretty full year for the kids and me. We work hard right through to the 1st of May; and this year's going to be a 'hummer' because I've got so many new things to tell them about. Thought I'd have an assistant this year, but from all I hear from home I guess I won't need one." "Assistant?" I fired at him in astonishment. "How many children have you? Isn't your wife all the assistant you need?" "Wife," he stuttered in surprise. "I'm not married. I'm a school teacher in one of the county districts of Florida. Had forty-five kids last year, but I guess there'll be fewer this year. Have some great geography to teach them this year and they're just bubbling over with interest about the 'North. I'll be able to——" Just then the platform door slammed; indicating the return of the travelers from the car platform, and before the first gentleman could push a bell or say a word our porter-pedagogue had caught a glimpse of his face, and as he sprang to his feet he said: "Yes, sir; number nine is all ready, sir." And I climbed into upper 13 with the same feeling I have when Ive found a four-leaf clover or a horseshoe. The Eagle Company of Montgomery, W. Va., has been successfully mining and shipping coal in carload quantities for several years. Colored men in St. Paul in an effort to finance the home-buying activities of their local group have organized a building-and-loan association.

For the Benefit of All Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Friends of Its President-General For Framing and Hanging in the Home, With His Autograph Signature, the Only Official Picture in Circulation With Copyright By G. EMONEI CARTER (Continued from last issue) By regeneration the darkness and blindness, which formerly rested on the mind are dispelled and new views and sentiments are given of God, of Christ, of ourselves, of the world, of eternity, of holiness, of the Gospel plan of salvation; in short, of everything with which we are conversant. Before we had either formed false conceptions of God, representing Him to ourselves as possessed only of those attributes against which the natural heart has no repugnance; stripping Him in our imaginations of those perfections which are opposed to the sinner and substituting a God of all mercy for the three-holy Jehovah; or, if we had a true view of His nature, of that unspotted purity which abhors iniquity, of that inflexible justice which will by no means clear the guilty, we felt no love for these perfections, we wished that God were divested of them. How different are the views of the new-born soul? It sees an excellence and loveliness in the divine character deserving its constant adoration, service and affection. It beholds an unspeakable beauty in everything belonging to God; in His justice and holiness, as well as His mercy and grace; in His laws and His providences; in His works and His word. Filled with admiration and delight, it is often absorbed in God and self is forgotten while it is swallowed up as it were in the contemplation of the divine glories. Once the renewed person could think and speak of the Saviour and His atenuation with profane coldness. But now there are objects in which he sees such excellence as to overwhelm his soul with wonder, gratitude and love. A crucified Christ appears to him now to be indeed "the power of God and the wisdom of God." He sees a divine excellence and suitableness in His mediatorial character and His mediatorial work. If he is asked "What is thy beloved more than another's beloved?" he can answer from the ravishing views he has had of Jesus. "He is altogether lovely." With Paul he counts all things but loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ, his Lord." With Paul he delights to contemplate the grace, the condemnation, the wisdom displayed in the redemption of man; to stand on the brink of his abyss of mercy and, after in vain endeavoring to fathom or measure it, to cry out, "Oh, the height, the length, the depth and the breadth of the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge." He now has different views of himself self and of sin. He before esteemed sin as a pardonable frailty, which might he excused from the weakness and corruption of man, and from the force om temptation; and for his indulgence in which God would not, except he were a hard master, consign him to eternal persecution. He now calls the dead guilty, his infinite obedience. He full desirst of hell. He now open that God must resuscitate His obedience or punish it. He now is humbled and abased under a sense of that corruption which in his natural state he pleased as an extinction of his covenant. His high and lofty ideas of himself are displayed and he feels that he is a poor, miserable sinner. He confessed this formerly with his lips, but when he now cries, "God be merciful to me, a sinner." It is the language of his innermost soul, it proceeds from the center of his heart. He has new views of holiness, of the world, of eternity, Formerly he esteemed as his principal happiness the enjoyment of the pleasures, the acquisition of the honora, the accumulation of the riches of the world. To be encompassed by, the delights of earth, to be esteemed honorable by men, to have his coffers overflowing with wealth appeared to him a happier life than to deny the fleab, to mortify the passions, to live under a sense of the presence of God, in the exercises of the offices of devotion and duties of piety. But now he sees this world is vanity, that eternity alone deserves his cares, that a man who has a God, a soul, and an everlasting state to attend to is a fool if he forgets them for the sake of earth—that a life of holiness is the only life which is safe, honorable, pleasant of reasonable. NEW EDITION OF U. N. I. A. CONSTITUTIONS WILL BE READY POSITVELY NEXT WEEK Every Member Must Secure a Copy from His or Her Division In one word, the 'regenerer' man having learned to estimate things according to their real value, finds a perfect revolution in his sentiments; finds himself, as it were, in a new world and, while he blesses God for His "marvelous light," wonders at the folly of his formal opinions. III. By regeneration a man's chief end is changed. By man's chief end we mean that which he principally seeks after; that which it is the great object of his labors and cares to acquire. The chief end of the unregenerate is temporal felicity; for this they principally exert themselves; this has the first and the best of their thoughts and exertions; they esteem themselves happy in proportion as this is acquired by them, and miserable in proportion as it is wanting. It is otherwise with those that are renewed. As they know that there is greater excellence in God and in Heaven than on earth they have there laid up their treasure and fixed their hopes. The world does not deceive them by its false appearances; they know that it cannot make them happy nor save them from the grave and hell; and they will not, therefore, put it in the place of God and Heaven and take it as their portion. They begin carnely to seek the Lord and eternal felicity. This is their great business, their ultimate aim, their chief intent. If God were now to offer them the possession of the whole world of myriads of years, without the divine grace and favor and the hope of everlasting felicity, they would still esteem themselves undone wretches.
