The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro Reaching the Heart of Negroes The Best Advertising Medium A Newspaper Dedicated Safety in the Interest of the Negro Race VOL. XVI. No. 17 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JUNE 7, 1934 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN CREATIVE TIME SEVEN CENTS ELEVEN WEEKS IN CREATIVE TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN CENTS BIGGEST NEGRO CONVENTION IN HISTORY OF THE WORLD Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: Once more our minds are turned seriously to the forthcoming Fourth International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, at which are to assemble men and women, representatives of the race, from every section of the globe, there to discuss and carry out such programs as will tend to enhance the better interests of this down-trodden race of ours. The International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World is our parliament, it is our congress. It is where we find scope for the unburdening of ourselves of the bitter and hurtful feelings forced upon us by a wounded, heartless and sinful world, and where, out of the unburdening of this feeling, we are better able to understand ourselves, and thus be rendered able to arrange the course in which universally we should travel. Conventions Made History The conventions of the past have made history in their deliberations. Out of them we were able to formulate a world program that is now changing the whole aspect of the Negro problem. Out of these conventions we have built up a world institution that is today a recognized force in the world, as far as the shaping of the destiny of Negroes is concerned. We have had our trials and our troubles. We have had our tribulations, but they are all stepping stones to the achievement of greater things. Our heart achs, our palms, have been sore and deep, but what do we care, realizing that all such forms a part of the great problem of reform. We must suffer, some of us must die, before we, as a race, can attain the heights of higher and better things. So there is no regret for those who have suffered and those who have died. It is but a duty, and gladly those of us who lead perform it. Looking Forward to Brighter Day With all that has been achieved, we are now looking forward to a brighter and a greater day. It is for that that we are preparing for the Fourth International Convention. Out of it, we feel sure, will come great reforms and great changes to affect the four hundred millions of us scattered throughout the world. This year, more than ever, we shall make our impress upon the world that shall be indelible—an impress with a hope and desire for a larger humanity and a more equitable distribution of those things that go to make man happy, peaceful and brotherly. As by indication, all the nations and groups of humanity are endeavoring to formulate a program whereby there can be a better human understanding, through which we can have the peace that the world longs for. Humanity is right in such a desire, and that is why four hundred million Negroes, under the leadership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, desire to impress the heart of the world, the heart of the white world and of the yellow world, with a sober realization of the rights and needs of hundreds of millions of black men who are as much human beings as the rest of those of God's creation. Rights of All Mankind The Universal Negro Improvement Association is appreciative of the rights and needs of all mankind—white, yellow and red—and, naturally, we are appreciative of our own rights as Negroes. All that we want is justice and fair play. We demand it. We have organized for it, we are working for it, we have struggled for it, and, if needs be, half of us are going to die for it. But why should humanity die for the principles of freedom and liberty in an age like this? All of us should know that each and every one of us is entitled to it. Then why not give it up without a struggle? Why not let Africa be free, as Europe is free? Why not make Asia free, as America is free? Why not each nation be free without endeavoring to force upon the other the will, strength and might which we have made right? If might is to be right, then all of us shall fight for might. Then where will it end? Let us be sober men—white, yellow and black—and come to a realization of the truth. Let white men have the things that are theirs. Let yellow men have the things that are also theirs, for four hundred million black men demand the things that are theirs. Return to the Negro His Property Let England peacefully give up to the black man that what is his. We ask France to give up peacefully to the black man the things that are his. We ask America to treat us decently until we have found a home. That is all we want. At no time do the black peoples of the world ever desire to interfere with the rights of white men, and we trust that white men will be liberal enough in this twentieth century, if no other time, to give to the black man the things that are his. We demand it in the name of humanity. We demand it in the name of justice. We demand it in the name of what is right. We demand it in the name of God.

Best Minds of the Race to Be Present The above program will be exhaustively discussed at our forthcoming convention, and it is natural to expect that the best minds of our race will be sent as representatives to take part in these discussions. All branches and chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and all other organizations, societies and churches are invited to attend the convention and to take part in its general discussions. Delegates, as usual, will be coming from Africa, Europe, Asia, the West Indies, South and Central America, Canada and the forty-eight States of the American Union. This will be a big time for the Negro race. During the night sessions of the convention (the convention will be night and day for the thirty-one days of the month of August) several of the prominent white leaders of America will speak to the delegates. We are expecting the presence of several Senators, Congressmen and leaders in American public life and educators. Negro Political Union Among the important items to be discussed, as outlined by the above program, will be the formation of the Negro Political Union. This union will consolidate the political forces of the Negro through which the race will express its political opinion in America, in the islands of the seas and in all communities where the Negro forms a part. The Political Union shall represent the political hopes and aspirations of the fifteen million Negroes of the United States of America on American questions, domestic to America, and shall represent the interest of the millions of Negroes of the West Indies in their different and respective islands affecting domestic political questions, and so also in the scattered communities of Africa. The union shall have a sympathetic relationship politically, with Negroes all over the world, but each country or community will have its own domestic program for the betterment of the race in that country or community. But the strength of the union will be given to any community or country to politically assist it in putting over its political program. As, for instance, if the Negroes of America were politically agitating or working for the passage of any special measure for the benefit of the race, the entire strength of the union would be placed at the disposal of the American section. If the Negroes of Trinidad desired to carry out any political measure for the benefit of that community, the union would use its strength in assisting them, and so with any community where the Negroes live throughout the world. No longer, therefore, will individual politicians represent the interests of the Negroes, but the Negroes unitedly will be represented by the Negro Political Union. Let us all, therefore, work for the successful consummation of the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, so that we may be able to glory in a brighter day industrially, commercially, socially, religiously and politically. I am also appealing to the members and divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association all over the world to now rally to the immediate assistance of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, to enable the Association to carry out its program of sending its first ship to Africa in September. We can have a ship of our own in September only if the members subscribe to the loans. Let us do so whole-hearted, so that at the rising of the convention on the 31st of August we may look forward to the sailing of our ship for the carrying of our colonists who will engage themselves in the industrial development of the black Republic of Liberia. Liberia, as everybody knows, is the Negro's country. All Negroes should concentrate in helping in her industrial and agricultural development. Her forests should be chopped down, cities should be built thereon, the virgin land should be tilled and waked to produce the products that her native soil is capable of. Why shouldn't we bend our energies in this direction? That is a part of the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association for 1924 and 1925. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be. Your obedient servant; MARCUS GARVEY, President-General. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. New York City, June 3, 1924. P. S.—All divisions and chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are again reminded that the time for getting financial with the Parent Body is now. Be sure to send in your reports and be in good financial order for the convention of August, 1924. All members are also requested to immediately pay up the annual tax which became due on the 1st of January. Members are also asked to do their best in pushing along the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company for the securing of the first ship. No, they cannot understand. And already the psychanalysts are busy. No one will be amazed if soon these high-matured experts fashion some high salutin theory of maniacal perversion; present the picture of a couple of youths, more sinned against than sinning, converted into pittable paltroons by over study. And who knows but some jury may turn from hanging on the words of expensive counsel to exclaim, "Father, forgive them; they know not what they do." What a blessing for the Negro race the world over that Leopold and Loch are not Negroes! Apart from the fact that they would now, perhaps, be hanging from a tree, their bodies riddled with bullets, the propagandists would be busy—an agonized clamor for keeping "the Negro barbarian" in his place would be resounding from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The perilous sentiment, prevailing in certain places, against admitting the Negro to universities would be fed fat. Negrophobists would be waging their heads and saying. "We told you so." If this deplorable incident points to anything, it is this, that college walls do not angels make; that to vaunt intellectuality as the hall-mark of all the virtues is as foolish, as to place a premium upon crass ignorance. It once again exemplifies that the talk of white race superiority, moral and everything else, is so much cant and humbug. And this brings to mind a little paragraph, tucked away in an obscure corner of a New York newspaper, telling how two Negroes were lynched recently in a small town in Florida for attempting to attack two white woman. "Attempting to attack!" The author writes in the latter, failing to appreciate the splendid and unusual virtues to be found in his own womanhood, harkers after the women of another race. The mohocratic spirit, a symptom of barbarism, of course, makes his blood boll, and, if his head is anything but a hatrack, shakes him out of his self-compassion, but, taking a view from an obtuse angle, he murmurs, "Serves him right." But "Attempting to attack." Any one who has traveled in the South knows that in some places you can attack a white woman by the simple process of looking her in the eye. And suppose a white woman, a super-intellectual, one engaged in scientific research, say, sex perversion, takes it into her head that it would be helpful. In the interests of science, to "note the reaction, sexual, mental or physical, of a human, a Negro, dying under certain conditions," what then? Suppose she, knowing the point of view of her community, shrieks and faints, pointing a timid finger at some Negro, what then? A Negro would soon be writhing in agony, handing from a tree, merely for "attempting to attack," a splendid student subject. The other afternoon the writer was travelling on the subway in New York city. Seated near him was a young Negro gentleman, well-dressed, with every show of refinement. I made a mental note that he was a student. A white young lady was seated opposite. Prepossessing in appearance, she sat, legs crossed, eyes glued to the pages of a novel. Taking advantage of her inverted eyes, most of the men in the car-there were about a dozen—feasted their gaze on her shapey ankles. Chambers station was reached. The young lady rose to leave the car. As she sought the door door for pleasure fell to the door, but she did not know it. The Negro student was in her wake and he retrieved the fallen garment. The young lady was at the door, waiting for it toslide open. The Negro in the mort carousel, unconcerned manner, lightly tipped the runaway garment over the lady's shoulder and walked on to the door at the other end of the car. The lady turned and, looking in the direction of, the young man smiled her thank. But he was unaware. He was leaving the car. Paris place, the next station, was my nation. As two white men and I sought across, this is the conversation I overheard: "What do you think of that nigger?" said one. "Got a nerve," replied the other, and added, "If I had recovered from the shock fast enough before the door closed, I would have socked his head off." And the other hissed, "Give me the South." I removed my hat to cool off, pondering over the narrow margin by which I had escaped a pretty scrap. In spite of the signs of the times there are still many Negroes who afraid to believe that battleships and amphiphaeus stand invincibly in the way of any downstream group grapping with the terormenter. Tell them the Negro will surely some day redeem UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION RAISING FUND OF TWO MILLION DOLLARS FOR BUILDING FIRST COLONY IN LIBERIA EVERYBODY ASKED TO HELP WITH A DONATION NEGROES TO HAVE HOMELAND OF THEIR OWN FOUR SEPARATE COLONIES TO BE BUILT—ENGINEERS TO SAIL IN FOUR DAYS The Universal Negro Improvement Association is now starting to carry out its colonization plans for helping in the cultural, industrial, agricultural, economic, educational and social development of the black republic of Liberia, West coast of Africa, as a permanent home for the scattered Negroes of the world who desire to live in a country of their own where they can enjoy the benefits of real freedom, liberty and democracy. The good people of Liberia anxiously welcome to their country, their hearts and their ideals the soberminded, industrious, lawabiding, ambitious Negroes of America, West Indies, South and Central America and Canada who desire to settle among them and become a part of a peaceful, growing black nation. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is now helping in this direction as the Jews are helping to build and restore Palestine. The Association has undertaken to develop four colonies in Liberia, the first to be built on the Cavalla River, to which the first group of colonists is expected to sail in September of 1924 from New York and regularly thereafter. The Association is to spend two million ($2,000,000) dollars on the development of each colony for public works and other utilities. They are now raising the first two million ($2,000,000) dollars for the building of the Cavalla colony. The following plans are to be carried out for the building of each and every one of the four colonies, all government buildings, however, to be under the direction of the Liberian Government and all persons shall observe the laws of the Republic of Liberia accordingly. All those who desire to help the Negro under the auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in developing himself are asked to subscribe to the fund of two million ($2,000,000) dollars now being raised for the promotion of the Cavalla-Colony. The first group of engineers will sail in a few days to start construction work for the accommodation of the first group of colonists who will leave in September.

Japanese Commits Harakari as Protest Against Exclusion TOKIO, May 31 (By Associated Press)—An unidentified Japanese today committed suicide in the street near Africa and they chant. "Tomahawks will do when with tomahawks they meet, but rifle and revolver are pretty sure to beat." But this is how Maximillian, Hardcn, German, thinks: "Laboratories preparing deadliest war of history. Those who, looking back at the ancient cultures of Egypt and Hellen, lose their belief in progress, can find it here in our scientific barbarian. For mind will conquer howitzers and the inventor's brain unsided will conquer massed battalions." the ruins of the American Embassy, destroyed in the earthquake and fire of last September, as a protest against enactment of the American immigration law excluding Japanese from the United States. The Japanese, dressed in the formal dress of a Japanese gentleman, committed hankari with a short sword in the fashion prescribed by ancient custom. Two letters were found on the body, one addressed to the American people and one to the Japanese people. The police withheld their contents, but it is understood the one addressed to Americans condemned exclusion in bitter terms. That addressed to the Japanese, it is said, urged the nation to rise to avenge the insult embodied in the action of America. The incident has created a sensation in Tokyo. JAPANESE AND NORDICS WEIGHED IN THE BALANCE The Whole Question of Japanese Exclusion Based Upon False Assumption of Racial Superiority Mr. Heywood Broun, the brilliant and big-hearted columnist of the New York World, has the following to say about Japanese exclusion: I wish I knew more about the Japanese problem which no distracts the citizens of California. No spokesman of that State has made it clear to me just why specific exclusion is desired instead of the condition which prevailed under the gentlemen's agreement. Indeed, I do not understand just why the Japanese is so foured and so hated by native-born and naturalized Americans of the Pacific Coast States. He works more chenely, to be sure, but so do immigrants from many other quarters of the globe. He is not roadly assimilated, but this again is true of other racial strains to be found in America, and quite often the attitude of the American community is that it would rather that these alliens did not try so confoundedly hard to dive head first into the melting pot. At any rate, a number of American universities and colleges have done their best to discourage the matriculation of various groups which seemed to the administrative authorities a little strange and foreign to our national traditions. Certainly, I am not disposed to say that the Californians have not good reason in self-interest to limit the immigration of Japanese as far as possible. Still, I was under the impression that no more than the veriest trickle came in under the arrangement which existed prior to the bill which Coolidge has just signed. If this is not so, I am willing to listen. But above all, I wish that when America decides to do something from sheer self-interest it would plainly label it as that and not insist on calling the situation alarm and unintentionally 'cutin' adjective in the street is fond of saying that racial mixture between divergent types are biologically bad. That may be so. I don't know. I doubt if the man in the street is really profoundly informed on the matter, and I am not even convinced that the best of biologists can speak with complete authority. The most curious thing about America's present policy of closely restricted immigration is the successful attempt to call it 100 per cent, Americanism. That is less than a just label. After all, America was founded on the theory of the latch-string. This was to be the haven for all the oppressed. It was to welcome all in the Oh. World, who dared the adventure into the New A vision of open-handed brotherhood was the dream of the men who signed the Declaration. Now. I am not among those who contend that anything must be right and proper merely because it was the will of the forefathers. They were not divinely inspired. They could not foretell the future. Much that they planned ought to be radically revised. Perhaps they were in error in their vision of an open door. If so, it is meet and right that the national policy of America be changed; but when we do a right-about-face, let's call it that rather than insist that it is a move to uphold and maintain old and cherished traditions. We are all monkeys, every one of us. The man who can trace his ancestry back three or four generations of the same racial or national strain calls himself pure-blooded. But back of his farthest ascertainable ancestor there were blood streams. Follow them up and assuredly they will run into queer places. Out of the desert, down from the mountains, from plain and jungle have come some rivals. Ages later some monkey raises his head and call himself a Nordic, and he decries that the uneasy title of race Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN Resentment at Statements of the Herald Tribune as to Leadership and Character of Dead Man MR. GARVEY DRAGGED IN We have been requested to publish the following article, which was addressed to the editor of the New York Herald Tribune, on the late Barron Wilkins, who was recently murdered in Harlem by a degenerate. Dear Sir:—Under the date of Monday, May 26, 1924, an article appeared in the "Herald Tribune" entitled "Barron Wilkins Slayer. Given Up." For a Negro as the subject the eulogy was lengthy and unusual. I have known better and more important Negro men whose passing received far less attention from the Herald Tribune. It is not the intention of the writer to criticize the effort of the Herald Tribune in trying to make up for past failures along this line, by overdoing the Wilkins' eloquence. But there are certain statements made in the article which I cannot allow to pass unchallenged. That Mr. Wilkins was a power in the underworld I question not. That he was considered by the Herald Tribune a political power among his people I do not question, for the average white man's conception of Negro political leadership is twin brother with that of the Herald Tribune's. But to characterize Wilkins as "one of the most notorious Negroes in America" in one breath and laud him as leader of the "influential group of American Negroes" at the same time is something which only the Herald Tribune itself is capable of explaining. Perhaps what the Herald Tribune meant to say at first is what is said later—"It was generally understood that he was powerful under the surface in politics." An American Negro, I present most emphatically your effort to fasten upon me and my race an underworld character and cabaret proprietor leadership in any respect whatsoever. The Herald Tribune falls to understand that the time has passed when Negroes allowed white newspapers or white anything, else to choose its leaders, political, or otherwise. For our experience it has that white-picked Negro leaders are dangerous leaders for Negroes. The Negro has his own conception of Negro ownership. It is a conception that the white man fully understands, but which he does not sympathize with nor endorse. We no longer follow shepherds whose voices we do not know. Among other things, you stated that Wilkins, the deceased, "disliked and mistrusted Marcus Garvey." Supposes he did, what of it? Does that redound to Wilkins' credit and Marcus Garvey's discredit? Is Garvey the only man that Wilkins "disliked and mistrusted"? It would appear so, also we tait to see the motive of the Herald Tribune in mentioning such an "important matter." But why mention Garvey? What has this to do with Wilkins' importance or non-important? What is it? Tribut. We have a lingering suspicion that "someone else" dislikes and mistrusts Garvey. Why use the Wilkins matter as a means to an end? Your article further states that Wilkins "led the influential group of American Negroes opposed to Garvey." This is news indeed, and another attempt of the Herald Tribune to show its ability in forcering out Negro "leaders." If the Herald Tribune means by "intellectual group," the underworld, pizz-crazy group, then its statement goes unchallenged. "Where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly to be wise." Who made the Herald Tribune a judge over and for the Negroes of Harlem anyhow? Your article continues in the same rambling and untidable strain and says that Garvey's "chief support comes from the West Indian element." Wrong again. Socrates, your ignorance is refreshing. Marcus Garvey's chief support comes not from the West Indian element, but from the American Negro who has grown tired of "Uncle Tom leadership." But what if it did come from the West Indian element? What has this to do with Perron Wittkins who, to use the Herald Tribune's own phraseology, was "one of the most notorious American Negroes." "a power among the Harlem Negroes," "and empowered under siege in politics." I am an American Negro. My forebears fought in the Revolutionary Civil, Spanish-American and World Wars. We have from the first chosen our own leaders; we shall continue to choose them. We have been careful to see that they are not of the Herald Tribune type. Frankly, we like the Marcus Garvey type of leadership, the type that the white man despises and seeks to crush. We can sleep more at ease with this type of leadership in the saddle, even though he be a "Cincinnatus from the West." I wonder if you will publish this Of course. I doubt it. Very truly yours. THOS.

DO NOT FORGET The First Annual Military and Full Dress Ball That Will Be Given by THE AFRICAN ROYAL GUARDS at NEW STAR CASINO 10718 Street and Leathington Ave. THURSDAY NIGHT, JUNE 8, 1924 Music by the Famous Tempo Orchestra Mr. Garvey Starred at Dr. DuBois—The Latter Pretended He Did Not See the Former—Some Very Tense Moments in the Lobby of Hotel Sterling, Says Editor Dabney The National Conference of Social Work, with its 5,000 delegates meeting in Toronto, Canada, June 25 to July 2, will discuss problems of the Negro in many of its sectional meetings. Migration, health, children, community, organization and industry will be among the subjects to be discussed. Mrs. Mary McL. Bethune, principal of the Daytona (Fla.) Normal and Industrial School, will speak in the section meeting dealing with rural social work In relation to child welfare on the subject of "The Negro Child in the Rural Community." Dr. George E Haynes, secretary, Commission on Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, will address a general session on "Negro Migration and Its Effect on Family and Community Life." In the health section, the subject of Negro health will be discussed by Algerson B. Jackson, of the Howard University Medical School, Washington; C. V. Roman, of Mehary Medical School, Nashville, Tenn., and Louis I. Dublin, statistician of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. The discussion will be opened by Dr. Charles H. Garvin, of Cleveland, Ohio. Due to the special industrial problems growing out of the migration a special round table will be held or "The Negro in Industry," at willigene Kinnick Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, will preside. The speakers in this section are John T. Clark, executive secretary of the Pittsburgh Urban League; Miss Helen Sayre, personnel director of colored women of the "Machinism" design-fold Company, Chicago, Ill.; George B. Fout, personnel manager of the Youngstown, Ohio, Sheet and Tube Company; C. L. Peake, Department of Industrial Relations of the American Raditor Company, Buffalo, N. Y.; Robert L. Mays, president, Railway Men's International Association. The discussion will be opened by Forrester B. Washington, executive secretary of the Armstrong Association, Philadelphia, Pa. This conference is one of the broadest and most liberal of the various national bodies considering social problems in America, and it is thought that a large number of colored social workers will attend as delegates. British Exploiters In East India Are Denounced From the Johannesburg International Mr. Saklatava, the ex-M. P. for Bat- tarsuea, has been speaking very plainly on the relationship between natives and British workers in India. "Unfortunately," he says, "many English fordmen and tradesmen (some of them alleged Specialist) have not only failed to give their share to the workers of India in such a fight, but are rendering daily assistance to their capitalist paymasters, who pay them at a much higher rate in the East than here at home. "The most disgraceful part is really played by those British managers, fore- men and technical experts who go out to the East and become slave-drivers over human beings without ever standing up for those who are put to work under them. "They are not only a gang of terrorists over the poor dumb Indian workers, but they are the blacklegs who go out to the East and create a situation which makes the economic position of British workers in Britain impossible. "There have been numerous strikes in India which have been spontaneous and which have been carried on under circumstances of great hardship by the Indian workers. In not one of these strikes have the so-called British trade unionists and Socialists who are out in the East sided with the men, and in almost all the strikes these European foremen have been chiefly instrumental in calling out the armed police, or even the soldiers, with the sola purpose of terrorizing over the ignorant workers. So far there was only one man, Mr. Miller, of the Indian Railways, who sided with the strikers, and he was sentenced to six months' imprisonment—and was abandoned by all the Europeans, including many chiming to be Socialists, because they are all—subject to the great obsession of preserving the white man's prestige. Three Die in Flaming Plane MADRID, May 21.—A Spanish airplane, employed in the Moroccan campaign, has fallen in flames at Melilla, burning to death two captains and one lieutenant. CINCINNATI, O.-Last week Monday morning, Prof. "Alphabettal" (W. E. B.) DuBoil, editor of The Crisis magazine, was in this city and had 10 a.m. breakfast at Hotel Sterling with Prof. W. P. Dabney, editor of our local publication, The Union. But let the latter tell about it: "As I (Dabney) journeyed to the hotel, I thought of how DuBois in The Crisis, only last month, had assailed the doctrines of Marcus Garvey, and personally called him 'everything he was big enough to call him'; in short, things the reverse of complimentary. We were saddened; for we knew Garvey's foreign blood (West Indian) and fiery temper. We prayed that the two would never meet, unless surrounded by minions of the law. We entered the Hotel Sterling office, found DuBois, and, as we were early, the time was agreeably spent in a tote-a-tote. * * * Fringrant odors waited from realms below told that a feast fit for the gods was in process of preparation or materialization. To the elevator we went. Waiting a moment, the door was suddenly thrown open, out stepped a guard of honor, consisting of several ladies splendid costumed, and a stout dark gentleman, gorgeously apparelled in military costume. Ye gods! "Twas Garvey. He saw me, a smile of recognition, then a glance at DuBois. His eyes few wide open. Stepping aside, he stared; turning around, he stared, while DuBois, looking straight forward, head uplifted, nostril quivering, marched into the elevator, seemingly 'all the world forgetting,' but not by all the world forged for Garvey was still gazing, petrified as though, uncertain whether 'twain really his arch foe who had been near and yet was getting farther away every second. A sigh of relief escaped the as we entered the club. Immediately, I remarked, I must compliment you upon your wonderful nerve, your colossus, your poise. The only sign I saw of nervousness was the quivering of your nopiles.' "What are you talking about? said "Why, about your meeting with Garvey, just now. I expected him to attack you at once." "Are you crazy? Garvey? Where is Garvey?" "Why, he stepped out of the elevator as we entered." "Stepped out of elevator? Garvey" "Why I did not know it. I saw a man in uniform, but paid no attention, I was deeply thinking about something." "Well, if you did not know it was Garvey, why was your nose twitching so?" "That was caused by thought. You see, I smelled the breakfast, and was wondering how soon we would reach the table." "We ate, he chuckling with laughter as he thought of the meeting, and I a little serious at the thought of what might have happened. But 'All's well that ends.'" DABNEY. Debs Sent to Hospital In Serious Condition TERRE HAUTE, Ind., May 31.—Eugene V. Debs, Socialist leader and often candidate for president, was removed to a hospital in Chicago today. His conditions was reported serious. He had been ill at his home here of heart trouble for several months. "The River of Jordan" in Palestine has at last got to go to work.

After an absence of nearly two months from New York, Hon. Marcus Garvey, President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was accorded a rousing welcome in Liberty Hall tonight by fully five thousand members and friends of the New York local who packed the hall nearly to capacity. Returning with him was Hon. Samuel R. Haynes, ex-compromissioner of the State of Virginia, who accompanied the president general as secretary, during the tour through a section of the country visiting the various divisions of the association. Mr. Haynes spoke in terms of the highest optimism in regard to the morale of the membership of all the divisions which they had visited and said that the major impressions he had gained while on the tour was that the officers and members of the organization were ready for nation building, and were ready to start laying the cornerstone for a great African empire. He was also impressed, he said, with the high regard in which the late Sir Robert Lincoln Poston was held, not only among the members of the association, but among Negroes in all walks of life, who were not affiliated with the movement and many of whom were not even in sympathy with it. Mr. Garvey spoke on the subject of "The Eternal Human Conflict." This conflict, he pointed out, was due to the lack of trust and confidence of mankind, one for the other—one group for the other group, and it was this state of afafra that induced the Universal Negro Improvement Association to strike out for independent leadership. The white man, he declared, can no longer lead the yellow man; the yellow man can no longer lead the red man, and neither of them can no longer lead the black man. He deplored the failure of the Negro for 300 years to have the consciousness of self, which was responsible for his subservience to others, but rejoiced that the coming of the Universal Negro Improvement Association had given to the Negro throughout the world a new outlook on the world of affairs and, inspired him with the courage to go forth and accomplish what others had accomplished. As white men have rendered service to Europe and to America, so, he declared, the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall not cease in its agitation—shall not cease in its propaganda until it, has brought four hundred million black men, women and children to render service to Africa. Following is the text of the speeches: NEGROES READY FOR NATION- BUILTING Mr. Samuel A. Haynes, ex-commissioner of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, who accompanied Mr. Garvey on his recent tour as secretary, was the first speaker. He said one of the major impressions he had gained while on tour was that the officers and members of the organization were ready for nation-building, were ready to start laying the cornerstone for a great African Empire. They were found to be ready with their physical strength, with their finance, with their intelligence and with their prayers to put over the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The tour had given him wonderful inspiration. One striking impression was the deep regard in which, not only members of the association, but the Negroes of America in general hold the late Sir Robert Lincoln Poston. The people were now serious and in earnest and conscious of the part they are destined to play in the affairs of the world—they now have the higher vision. African redemption was at hand, indeed. Some Negroes of New York talked of the redemption of Africa being an impossibility, but, it seemed to him, since nation-building was a human heritage it could not be impossible for four hundred million Negroes to build a nation of their own. Any man who talked about the impossibility of an African nation was an impossible being himself. In conclusion, the speaker predicted a great influx of members and appealed to the present members of the organization to put aside all selfishness, all jealousies and band themselves together solidly to the end that their objective may be reached. FAITH IN SELF Hon. G. E. Carter, first vice-president of the New York local, followed. Referring to a cartoon which appeared in Sunday's New York American depicting a man, sword in hand facing an armed squadron, strengthened by faith, he pointed that faith made all tasks easy and made for a peaceful life on this earth. It was the Negro's faith in himself, his new-found faith, his faith in God, his faith in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, his faith in the founder of the organization that made him assemble in large numbers every day every week, working towards his goal. Such faith must surely win success. The unbounded faith of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, their tenacity of purpose and their determination to do the things their bonds find to do with might and main can have but one result—the attainment of the goal they seek, the building of a nation, the redemption of Africa. HON. MARCUS GARVEY'S SPEECH Hon. Marcus Garvey spoke as follows: My subject tonight is "The Eternal Human Conflict," augmented by a passage from the book, "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," and the quotation from Byron: "Freedom's battle, once begun. Bequenched by bleeding sure to son, Though baffled off, is ever won." Humanity is engaged in a tremendous battle. Each of its groups fighting for a place of security, each section of it taking its new course and sealing things only from their particular viewpoint. Those of us who are real, who are serious and appreciative of our existence, realise, in the midst of sin, that there is no other course to take but that which is particularly ours. Hence we find all of the intelligent groups fighting, each and every one in a different direction, but with the same objective—many and position in a world of sin for which we in the present generation are not responsible. We are not responsible of ourselves in this generation for the sin that exists in the world. We found it here, and we have to face it. We have to recognize truly and thoroughly its existence. Because of sin man becomes heartless, man becomes selfish, man loses all his virtues. And if ever there were an age in which man lost his virtue, such an age is that of the twentieth century. The whole world in which we live now is but a huge deception—a huge camouflage, if I may so term it—wherein the one group seeks to deceive the other, seeks to fool the other, for its own particular advantage and interest. And that is why the conflict is so severe; that is why the fight is so bitter, and that is why none of us trusts the other. The white group does not trust the yellow group; the yellow group does not trust the white group; the red group does not trust either the white group or the yellow group. And, unfortunately, we find ourselves in the same world unable to trust any of the other groups. Striking: Out for Independent Leadership And that is why the Universal Negro Improvement Association strikes out for independent leadership. That is why all self-conscious people, self-conscious races and self-conscious nations strike out independently for their own leadership. The white man can no longer lead the yellow man; the yellow man can no longer lead the red man, and neither of them can any longer lead the black man. (Applause.) That is the decision that we have come to. They came to it long ago; they came to it before us, but, late though it be, we have arrived at the decision. That is where there is a divergent purpose in this great human program, yet every one of us is traveling toward the same objective, marching toward the same conclusion; the same end, the same destiny. Man, being naturally selfish, seeks all for himself. As of the individual, so of the race and so of the nation. The responsibility, I repeat, is not ours. Place the responsibility, where you may; place it on our early fathers; place it on the shoulder of Adam or Eve; place it where you may, the responsibilities are not even indirectly ours. We find ourselves here in this peculiar environment, and we have to live up to it. Hence the Universal Negro Improvement Association has mapped out a program of its own, facing the world with a program admitting of no advice from the world; admitting of no compromise from the world; admitting of no apology to the world for the object and for the destiny that we have in view. The World Deceptive I repeat myself when I say that the whole world is a linge deception, the one group trying to feel the other. We all know it; and the group that allows itself to, be fooled is the group that remains the poor underdogs of the world; is the group that remains the slave group of the world; is the group that remains the sort group of the world; and because we have been fooled for 300 years we have been that group for that period of time. The Hour of Wisdom Has Come But formally, the hour has come the hour of wisdom when all men seem to be in the softer possession of The wisdom of self-reliance; the wisdom of initiative; the wisdom of self-consciousness; the wisdom of wisdom one's self the highest wisdom in the world. How unfortunate it has been for the Negro not to have known himself for all this time when the rest of the world was conscious of its own existence, knowing itself thoroughly and completely? Why we have failed and for so long is simply because we failed all during that time to have known ourselves. If a man does not know himself he cannot thoroughly guide himself; he cannot thoroughly direct himself; and because we did not know ourselves we naturally had no accept others as our guide; we naturally had to accept others as our directors, in the course in which we should travel and, naturally, because of self-interest they guided us in the channels they wanted and directed us in the avenues that they desired. Know Yourselves But men of Liberty Hall: men of the Negro race throughout the world, we are now calling upon you to know yourselves; find first yourselves and then know yourselves and know yourselves thoroughly. What do I mean by that? Few of us of the many thousands here in Liberty Hall tonight could really give a true account and knowledge of ourselves as nature made us and as nature intended us to be. Just for a second, start to search yourselves, from the cradle up to your present age, and find out how few of you really know yourselves and know what you are capable of. Nearly all of us in here tonight are but chance livers. We live by chance and not by a proper knowledge of ourselves. If we were conscious of ourselves tonight in Liberty Hall, the thousands that we are; if we were conscious of ourselves the fifteen millions of Negroes in America that we are; if we were conscious of ourselves in the world, 400,000,000 as we are, we would move mountains; we would have a song of sorrows, no hymns of moaning and no prayers of supplication, but we would be a great and grand and noble and happy people, living as God intended, man should live. God in his knowledge of man never, intended man to be miserable and unhappy and uncomfortable, nor even as meek as we are. The one meekness that God intended man to accept was the meekness of service to Him—the humility of always acknowledging Him as God. But when it comes to meekness to other man God never intended that. God is not a God of inequalities; He is a God of equality; He is a God of justice; he is a God of love, and naturally out of His creative mind—out of His creative purpose, he could have no other purpose in creating man than to make man equal, make man happy and make man—as He did—master of his world and master of his Universe. Did God not create man master of the universe? Did God Almighty not place upon the shoulders of man the responsibility to look to his creation? Did God Almighty not exact from man whole obedience and service to Him? Other then that He gave man full control of the entire Universe. Because of lack of knowledge on the part ourselves we have failed to live up to that high estimate set by the Creator. No Fundamental Difference If I can inspire some hearts in Liberty Hall tonight; if I can inspire some minds in Liberty Hall tonight; if I can inspire some souls in Liberty Hall; if I can inspire Negroes throughout the world tonight. I will have done my duty in serving you. DO NOT FORGET The First Annual Military and Full Dress Ball That Will Be Given by THE AFRICAN ROYAL GUARDS at NEW STAR CASINO 1037 Street and Leington Ave. THURSDAY NIGHT, JUNE 5, 1924 Music by the Famous Tempus Orchestra and serving the Universal Negro Improvement Association. My duty is to assist the black man to find himself. My duty is to assist the black man to re-discover himself. But how timid some of us are in our feelings in our actions. In our deeds, because of this lack of consciousness of ourselves. Black men, do you not know that there is absolutely no difference between you and any other man in the world that God created, but the difference, you yourselves have created in your own minds. Outside of the difference that you have created in your own minds there is absolutely no difference between man in God's creation. What makes David Lloyd George different to Marcus Garvey? What makes George Clementeau different to Marcus Garvey? What makes Woodrow Wilson different to Marcus Garvey? What makes Theodore Roosevelt different to Marcus Garvey, but the minds of the man The man who will be high and climb to them because the possible is only different to the other man because the other man has ideals and is climbing to none, and there shall be an elephant, between them so long as the mind of some man grows at the action and the minds of other men grow among Negroes, pick your mind, from the ground, Negroes look down to much in show. Negroes that come for you to look in. The time has come for you to face the world (Applause). Face the world with a grim determination of seriousness, face the world with a grim determination of death for the man, not ready to die is not ready to live. Because of sun, if we must live we must be every root to die. And that is why we live in such a highly string world, and that is why the conflict races, both and there is as it were, no compromise. There is no compromise between the ideals of an America and a France. There is no compromise between the ideals of a Great Britain and a Germany. No Compromise Man to be path of that which renders him happy adjourns of no com- promise. Hence all desiries in the way of man must be destined for his happiness and peace and comfort. And that is why man has saddled the animals—the hearts of the field—the tiger, the lion, the elephant and everything that would stand in his way to happiness, to comfort peace, to honor and glory. Man does not only destroy the beasts of the field but man destroys man so as to teach the height of his ambition. And that is why we have war; and that is why we hear of these rumors of war, because of this in his desire of man to teach the pinnacle the name of that which is worth while of that which is given by God to man. The average Negro, not knowing him, does not respond to the shoulders of somebody else and upon the shoulders of a High Omnipotent the Almighty God. But, men, it is high time for us to assume a part of that responsibility that we desire to place upon God. Christians as we are, it would be wi- f for us to understand God a little more. Christians as we are, wouldn't it be better and higher and bitter for us to really know our God? Don't you know that nearly 90 per cent of us Christians do not know anything about what God is? Some of us build up in our minds false images and pictures of God—that God is some charitable distributor of material, physical In your **BABY** you down, walk tired? In your **BABY** path, "pause" them, watery? In your **BABY** WARDOW, dip up? In your body, shaving, and are you wetting with Are you losing WEIGHT? Are you always TIRED out and KNOCKED out? Do you walk around without any DOUBLE yourself! Take a step away from the gravel. Don't miss this opportunity! Come aline Time Size! Order the gifts; that God presides over some charitable institution and any time you want anything you go to Him and try to get it. God is not a philanthropist in the physical, material sense. God is not a plaything. God is an infinite, sensible, and intellible, at being that decides and acts; a being that does not change His Mind every minute of the day, but whose purpose is fixed. He is today like yesterly; He is tomorrow like a million years. Have you ever seen some st. corn men whom you call bull-headed, who, when they make up their mind you cannot change it at all. Well, imagine God far above such men in determination. Except God has made up in His mind you are entitled to a thing, you may pray till doomday, you are not going to get it. Negroes are praying for a lot of things they are not going to get; therefore, save the time God save the energy. A World of Sin Negroes, this is a world of sin, and because of sin materialism was brought into the world. Materially there is nothing you can pray for that you are going to get. That is a strange philosophy and different from what the preachers have been telling us, but in this world, the world material, there is nothing you can pray for that you will get, because you are living in the time and reign of sin, and God does not increase sin and does not satisfy sin. You pray for spiritual grace that is splitting to another kingdom, but not the kingdom of the British Empire, not the kingdom of the American commonwealth, but the kingdom of God. You pray for that, and those who want to get there easily, that will serve you when you get there. But if you have sense and know your responsibility and link and connection with God, you won't get there before your time, because the gate will not be open. Therefore, pray fatigently, praescientifically, pray knowingly for the things that you really want, that can be given by the one you are praying to. What is the use of praying to God for food, for your meals, for a place to sleep for money to spend, for display Shift? God is not a god of salvation of the things. He could not be. The moment sun came into this world, inequality came into the world, and God Almighty could not be a party to inequality. Before sin came into the world all things were common to man, and God disliked it to man but after sin came into the world man be baptized and dived into and became a material body responsible for his own existence, plants an and material form from the time of the Creation of Adam to the time we were known on our own material and physical forms. Na Manna New And if they will matter does not feel from even any more. That is why we only show them from here. We used to get them in the drive gone by; we could not show now. You are living in each piece of world of human being and physical, made of things. Watch the white man. Watch how he pays, how he wipe, and if you do you will need to pay, ditto simply to the Niger. He pays, apparently sometime, the Niger. He is not knowing that he is not paid, but paying for so much. And that, who we have nothing now. Niger, we want you to have an unshakeable and inti- tle sense of your own so that you would waste all this time and this eno- ring doing what you should not do, but put in what you should do. What Not to Prox For Now listen. To repeat myself, if you want clothes, if you want food, if you want money at yet want position that is your responsibility. Go out and join in a hard days work, a hard week work, a hard month's work, a hard year's work, and you will get that, and during the day, during the week, the month of the year, if you have to fight like hell to get these things. (We please.) Eight to get them, because that is the only way the world is going to yield to you. You don't get things for the asking, for the losing because of sin. You get things both why you are strong enough. When we are alert enough to grapple with the competition around you and get your share and portion. Then, in the spiritual, when you want grace and blessing, we pray and go to God in prayer; we take Him in the sacred corners of our chamber and pray to Him, "Our Father." But in the material, physical things of life, pray to yourself. Let your "be your prayer," let your acts be your prayer, let your deeds be your prayer, and you will see how quickly the condition in which we are placed now and in which we have remained for the last 300 years will change. What the Other Fellow Is Doing Aye, look at the other fellow and limitate him in that direction. Look at the great English people who are organized for the mastery and control of the world; look at the great French people, who are now organized for the mastery and control of the world. Pluko has more to do with her charm than you think Few of the thousands of admirers and friends of our Miss Lilian Routell, realize how much of her charm is due to her glamorous beauty, long, straight, glossy black hair. Yet charming, beautiful, and popular as this talented young woman is today, she says: "Take away my beautiful hair and I would love the greater part of my popularity at once. I know only two of those true, because I try at night. I would eat make an herbal way towards popularity and more until I started using PLUKO HAIR DRESSING, and the regular use of this wonderful preparation made my hair long, soft, glossy and beautiful as you see it today." From the experience of this popular woman, you can see it is easy if you want to be charming, attractive and popular to have beautiful hair. You can get PLUKO HAIR DRESSING at your drugstore or merchant and the regular use of this wonderful preparation will quicken, lengthen, straighten and bring new gloss to your hair and health to your skin. It is doing for Miss Routell and thousands of others a useful and successful men and women. To prove its merit and popularity, PLUKO HAIR DRESSING is now being used by race men and women at the overwhelming rate of more than a million packages a year. Pluko HAIR DRESSING Black and White Cans 40¢ Green Cans 25¢ If You want Long, Straight, Beautiful Hair, Use Pluko and look at the great Anglo-American people who are similarly organized. What are they doing? Are they praying or working? You see the deeds and work of the British people and emplied reflected through the uncompromising attitude of their Labor leader, Rumgay-MacDonald. You see the attitude of the French people revived through the statesmanship of Briand. You see the attitude of the great Anglo-American people demonstrated, and splendidly, through the actions of men like William Jennings Bryan, Hiram Johnson, men like McAdoo, men like Calvin Coolidge who realize their responsibility and duty to themselves, to their people, to their nation and to their God. Call to Service Let me inspire you Negro men, I say, to a sense of your responsibility, to a sense of your duty. God and nature and humanity call you at this hour to service, and none must any nay. Africa calls us to service, and, as white men have rendered service to Europe, as white men have rendered service to America, so the Universal Negro Improvement, Association shall not cease in its agitation, shall not cease in its propagation until it has brought four hundred million Black men, women and children to render service to Africa (Applause). And what service has the white man rendered that the black man cannot also render? It is only, I repeat, a difference of ideals. You black men of the world who will hang your ideals on the stars, you shall climb to them. You who hang your ideals down, you shall tremble them. But thank God, those of us who make up the Universal Negro Improvement Association have hitched our ideals to the stars and we are going to climb to them. We are going to climb to them in the accomplishment of nation building. In the attainment of company we are going to register our presence here, and when our names are called and the pages of the book of life are turned, the Negro surely shall answer "Here." Not "Here," as the disgusting and indolent servant with the one talent, but we shall answer "Here" with an equitable development of the talent that was placed in our hand by the common of tribes who gave each and every man, each and every page and group in this human family, its talent to use and multiply. The Negro has hidden his talent for the last three hundred years. This generation is going to dig it up. Anywhere my father buried the talent I am going to show. In fact, I have found it already, brother, and I am using it now. It is on that stock exchange. I am gambling with it every day like the other fellow. The white man is gambling every day with the talent given him. He is gambling for big stakes, for world expansion and world domination. Garvey is on the stock exchange, the same stock exchange, for four, hundred million Negroes. (Anplause.) We are going to take the same human chance—stock going up and stock falling down. The good broker knows his business. It is seldom the experienced broker goes out of business. He plays safe all the time. The white man has been playing safe all the time, and we have found out the science of playing safe. Better Day Coming Do you know, in the game of dice some follows dumbo lose. They know the science of playing with loaded dice. (Laughter.) We have discovered the science of multiplication. We gave multiplication to the world, sayhow, and we will use it to good purpose. We are going to use it to build a nation, an empire that will stand four square to the world. We also going to build or rebuild an Ethiopia; we are going to rebuild Egypt, a Timbucun; we are doing to rebuild to the glory of God and the salvation and redemption of our own race. Do not be disheartened; do not be discouraged. Disheartened for what? Discouraged for what? A better day is coming. A better day is coming, boys, a better day is coming, but you are the creators and makers of that day. That day shall be as you want it. Make it what you desire it to be. We are going to make it a day full of sunshine, full of gladness, a day whereon the flowers bloom, whereon the lilies look brighter. That day is the day of Africa's redemption, for which the Universal Negro Improvement Association is gathering four hundred million black souls throughout the world. We are going to put it over. We are going to put it over with our combined intelligence, with our combined ability, with our combined effort. We say it without fear of contradiction; we say it to the other selfish groups of the world who constitute humanity; we say it to the selfish English group, to the selfish French group, to the selfish Anglo-American group, and we are saying it with a full conclusion (Continued on Page 6).

LET'S PUT IT OVER JAPANESE PEOPLE GREATLY OFFENDED BY THE EXCLUSION ACT THE Japanese people are not excitable in temperament. They are rather stolid, phlegmatic, as we say of the Germans, speaking deliberately after mature thought. When we were among them we could not discover that they are ever in a hurry, in the American sense. They appeared to have plenty of time to do what was necessary as it should be done. Such a people are slow to anger and slow to forgive and forget. Indeed, they are said to have long memories, as have the American Indians, and will nurse a grievance against the time when they are ready to exact vengeance. The Japanese showed to the full this disposition to remember grievances in the case of the Russians, who for many years nagged and harassed the Japanese, who bore it all with outward calm, but who were secretly preparing all of the time to be ready to measure arms with the big bully, "The Great White Tsar of all the Russias," who had quite three times as many people as had the Mikado. When the time came the Japanese began to strike, and kept on striking from Port Arthur to Mukden, always advancing and never retreating, until the Russians were whipped to their knees and were glad to retire out of the war. Yes; the Japanese have long memories, and nurse a wrong until they are ready to avenge it, and they smile and look pleasant while doing so. It will be well to keep these facts in mind in our dealing with the Japanese people, whose national pride we have offended by excluding them entirely from our immigration desirables, on the ground that they are not a white people and cannot, therefore, assimilate with the white American stock, which is decidedly much amalgamated and largely mongrel, with some of everybody ground up in the whole of it. That is to say, the Japanese people are told that they are not as good as American white people and cannot, therefore, be tolerated by them on terms of equality. The Japanese regard this attitude as highly presumptuous and insulting, and they resent it. The American Congress and a large section of the American press affect not to understand the Japanese sensitiveness in this business any more than they affect not to understand the sensitivity of the Negro when his feelings and his constitutional "privileges and immunities" are outraged. It is a case of malignant race and color blindness gone daft, and it is right now affecting English speaking white people everywhere. It is riding for a fall in the United States, in India, and in Africa. That is the reading of the handwriting on the wall as we see and read it. What are the facts? Our Ambassador to Japan, Mr. Wood, has resigned, and will return to the United States, on account of the immigration restriction question, and the Japanese ambassador, Mr. Hanibara, will soon leave the United States for the same reason. The former soldiers of Japan, 10,000 reservists, recently held a meeting in Tokyo and expressed their readiness to fight whenever they should be called, and called upon their reservist comrades throughout Japan to do likewise. Shinkichi Uyesugi, noted Nationalistic publicist, taking the ground that it was no longer possible to reach a compromise with the United States, said: "If history teaches anything an eventual collision between Japan and America on the Pacific is inevitable." Lieut-General Bunjira Hirinouchi, told the ex-service men: "We must be determined to undergo whatever hardships are necessary in avenging the insult which America has done our country." War is a horrible thing. The world should have had enough of it, but it appears not to be so. Let us hope that there may be no war between the United States and Japan, but the emens now are not reassuring. The race worm trod upon has begun to turn upon its tormentors. WHEN A PREACHER HAS SOFTENING OF THE BRAIN It is not expected of preachers that they shall be as other men. By the nature of their high calling they are supposed to be better than other men and to so conduct themselves as to be a light set upon a high hill for other men to see and be guided by. It is credible to the gospel ministry that most of its preachers strive to live up to the high calling. Set them by the lowly Nazarene, but there are speckled apples in most barrels and black sheep in most flocks, and we are told that the wheat and the tares grow together in the same field, and sometimes the tares choke the good grain. So in the ministry; some good and some bad is always to be expected. When a preacher does have softening of the brain and goes off his stride we all regard him as a horrible example. We sympathize with and pity him, but we are not always able to save him from himself, because such misfits do not want to be sayed. They want to go it blindly until they fall down and can't get up. Dr William A. Byrd of New Jersey is a Preacherian alumna. Dr. William A. Byrd, of New Jersey, is a Presbyterian clergyman who seems to be unable to find rest for his feet or posture. although he has striven to do so in Arkansas, New York and New Jersey. He is chronically grouchy, discontented, never satisfied with any place or anything not built just as he is. Such a man may not have softening of the brain, but he is liable to have it, and of malignant type. Dr. Byrd is also a staff contributor of the Cleveland Gazette. In a recent issue of that paper he has a paragraph on Mr. Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in which he expresses himself with the violence of one having softening of the brain, his viewpoint being the same as that held by many of our alleged intellectuals who do not see men and measures as Mr. Garvey sees them. Among other violent sayings we quote the following from Dr. Byrd's outburst: "Marcus Garvey has shown himself unworthy to be at large. At the door of this man much is laid. His philosophy of life is wrong. He is unscrupulous in attempting to get what he desires. His greatest menace lies in the fanatic following he has. Many of these persons will commit any crime to further the interests of Gafvey and his mercenary plans. The back to Africa propaganda is foolish and impracticable. The great nations of the earth have parcelled Africa so that no one power has control. The civilization of Garvey and his followers is not such as to warrant turning over to their guidance the smallest island now inhabited. There should be no black man's country, as there is no white man's country. This country is as much the black man's as it is any other man's. What the black man must do here is to fight his way intelligently and economically until he comes into his own. He must learn the science of government and be able to get his share in the administration of the government here. Garvey's unwarranted attacks upon colored men who do not agree with his dishonest methods are reprehensible and dangerous. The best thing for Garvey and the people he is misleading is for the strong arm of the law to imprison this man or deport him." Now, does not this outburst sound as if the victim of it has softening of the brain and should have a guardian lest he commit some of the crimes he imagines Mr. Garvey and his followers capable of? Imagination is a dangerous guide. Mr. Garvey certainly has a "fanatic following," a following that believes in him and stands by him through thick and thin; and that is more than any other Negro was ever able to create, and that it is that troubles Dr. Byrd and other intellectuals of the race, who can't understand it and imagine vain things about it. There is nothing criminal or mercenary about Mr. Garvey or the membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Because Dr. Byrd and others of his ilk allege it does not make it so. There is nothing "foolish and impracticable" about the "back to Africa" propaganda with those who want to repatriate Africa, among whom Dr. Byrd cannot be counted by his own say so. And to say that the Great Powers have so apportioned Africa that "no one power controls," is to deny the independent sovereignty of Liberia and Abyssinia, both of which are members of the League of Nations and both of which, especially Liberia, are open to repatriation by understanding with the authorities of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. To say that "the civilization of Garvey and his followers is such as not to warrant the turning over to their guidance the smallest island now inhabited," is equivalent to denying the ability of any like group of intelligent Negroes to rule themselves. That is what the statement amounts to, and it is refuted by the fact that Liberia is governed by such a group of the race and invites the co-operation of other groups of the race. Yes, this is our country, and we should make the most of our citizenship and in just the way Dr. Byrd suggests, but that does not destroy our desire to see Africa for the Africans and a government of our own on the Continent where those of us who want to go there can do so with none to say to us nay, or make us afraid. When Dr. Byrd declares that "the best thing for Garvey" and the people he is misleading is for the strong arm of the law to imprison this man or deport him," he shows that he is a barbarian at heart, who would imprison or deport those he disliked violently and without due process of law. American law does not imprison or deport any one without due process upon conviction of a violation of law, and preaching the "Back to Africa" gospel, backed up by a fanatical following, who believe in their leader, is not criminal but legitimate business, entirely within the law. Dr. Byrd should have sufficient normality in his brain tissues to know and understand that. Some of our intellectuals are very barbarous and ferocious in their mental concepts and attitude, and they would have a tough time keeping out of prison or remaining in the country if those they do not agree with should do unto them as they would do unto those they do not agree with. Fortunately most of us have no softening of the brain and firmly believe in the fact of alleged criminality to be determined by law and legal process. Where no criminality is alleged there is necessarily an absence of necessity for law and legal process to determine the issue. Dr. Byrd does not appear to understand that. More's the pity. If he has not got softening of the brain, softening of the brain must have given him.

After the meeting of the National Business League in Chicago, in 1901, Dr. Booker T. Washington invited me to join him in "a camp out" on the Gauley river, in West Virginia. He was president and I was chairman of the executive committee of the league, and I remained such until I resigned in 1907, because of nervous breakdown. I accepted the invitation. The year was a memorable one because of the assassination of President McKinley and the inauguration of President Roosevelt. We were at the camp when all this happened, and we had trouble in getting such news of the terrible tragedy as we desired, as the camp was five miles from the nearest post office. There were many peculiar incidents connected with this outing, but none of them impressed me more than the fact that among other trappings Dr. Washington had ordered for the camp equipment there was a great big bath tub. He was an inveterate bather, but he did not use the bath tub. It leaned up against the water oak tree, where it was first placed, until we broke camp. Instead of using the bath tub, Dr. Washington, as the others of us did, took his dip in the pure waters of the Gauley every morning. We soon discovered that there were no fish in the Gauley river. If there were any in it they were too wise to bite. So, then, we had to hit upon other ways than fishing to kill the time, and we hit upon many. Dr. Washington liked to fish and hunt and ride horseback, but he was a mighty poor hand at doing either. But I never told him so, because he thought he was an expert and got all sorts of pleasure out of the thought. One day Dr. Washington suggested that we climb to the top of the mountain, on the opposite side of the river, whose table land was reputed to be expansive and to give a fine lookout over the surrounding country. The mountain did not look to be very high, but, O. Boy! We made an early start, Dr. Washington, the late Philip H. Waters of Charleston, I, and an Indian boy as guide. Dr. Washington took along his gun, a fine towling piece. We toiled up the mountain slowly, as it grew steeper as we climbed. We had not gone far up before a little bird hopped into a tree a few yards from us. Dr. Washington took deliberate aim and fired. The little bird flew away, chirping, and alighted on another tree some distance away. When we came near it, Dr. Washington nured again. Three times he shot, but the little bird would only fly away chirping. "That is a spirit bird," I said. Dr. Washington gave his substitute chuckle he called a laugh. We were far up the mountain, and the little bird was still in front of us. The top looked far away. We were all tired. Dr. Washington sat down on a log, with the gun between his legs. "I want to tell you a story," he said. "Once upon a time a party of white men were camping out, hunting for bear, but they could find none. They had a good Negro cook with them. One morning, very early, when they had gone to take the morning dip, they came running back pell-mell, and yelling like mad, "Get the gun!" He got the gun, "Come on, we have found the Bear," they screamed. "Susse me, Loss, I ain't lost no bear," he said. That is the way I feel about the top of this mountain, which seems as far off as when we began to climb it—I simply have not lost the top of this mountain." We all laughed and soon began to descend the mountain. The little spirit bird followed us down, hopping and chirping from tree to tree behind us, and when we reached the starting point it was still behind us on a tree, chirping merilily. "Dr. Washington, that is a spirit bird." I said, "I haven't lost any spirit bird," said Dr. Washington. And we crossed the river, failed to extend to him an invitation to visit them and cut some of his comedian-like capers on the platform of the institution in an effort to speak. The sooner misfeits like Pickens are silenced and relegated to the class of undesirables the letter it will be for all men and the work of bringing about good harmony will proceed—East WHAT WE BELIEVE THE Universal Negro Improvement Association advocates the uniting and blending of all Negroes into one strong healthy race. It is against miscegenation and race suicide. It believes that the Negro race is as good as any other, and therefore should be as proud of itself as others are. It believes in the purity of the Negro race and the purity of the white race. It is against rich blacks marrying poor whites. It is against rich or poor whites taking advantage of Negro women. It believes in the spiritual Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. It believes in the social and political physical separation of all people to the extent that they promote their own ideals and civilization, with the privilege of trading and doing business with each other. It believes in the promotion of a strong and powerful Negro nation. It believes in the rights of all men. HEALTH TOPICS By DR. B. S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association Invisible Fire Why do people get thin when they have high fever? How do you stay warm at any time? You are quite warm, you know. The thermometer placed under your tongue registers about 98.6 degrees F. All the time, if you are well. A temperature of almost 99 in the shade is not what you would call cool. Some of the food which you eat goes to building your tissues and the rest of it is burned up and heat is given off constantly that the body may be kept at a temperature which is necessary to maintain health. If you could get no food, nature would have to keep the "home fire burning" somehow, for nature will fight to keep life in you until there isn't anything left with which to fight. Say you are starving, or you are so all that you cannot eat. Nature, unable to get fat foods, meat foods, etc. obliged to start burning your own tissue. She starts drawing on the storehouse. You have a storehouse which we call the liver and here your body has been laying aside a goodly supply of extra material, for just such an emergency. This is brought out and burned for the sake of the body. When that supply is gone, nature will take the fat which you have spread out in layers under your skin and else- DO NOT FORGET The First Annual Military and Full Dress Fall That Will Be Given by THE AMERICAN ROYAL GUARDS AT NEW STAR CASINO 10th street and Pelham Ave. THURSDAY NIGHT, JUNE 5, 1921 Music by the Famous Tango Orchestra where and will burn that. Fat all gone she will next burn up the muscle tissue. Bone she does not care to use for this purpose and before the muscle is entirely gone, life is usually gone too. In a state of fever, the body is maintaining an unusually high temperature, and, therefore, must use more fuel. Food will be burned more rapidly then is it not so? Now, if you have a fever, you do not feel hungry as a rule, and food is either not given or it cannot be given in large amounts, so your own body substances are thrown into the invisible fires and the longer the fever remains and the higher it is, the thinner you get. There is another interesting thing about burning your own body, and that is, During staryation, without disease, it is as though nature becomes a little frantic, and, not being able to get food from outside agencies, she uses too much of the body tissues and produces a fover. This makes a bad matter worse, as you can readily see. The practical lesson to be learned from all this is that, when people are ill and suffering from a high temperature, food must be given in easily digested form and at frequent intervals, so that the body itself may be saved from the fate of being used as fuel. —A reform edict has been issued that pellea-boo, is no longer to be to be worn in business by women.

The Man and Woman Should Be Man and Wife From the Baltimore Afro-American The increasing problem of litigativism and the unmarried mother as shown in a news story in another section of this paper is one that should receive the serious attention of the churches. Second only to that of the State is the obligation of the church to keep intact the family unit as it relates to child life. It may be true that the legal machinery should make it harder for men and women to tag innocent babies with the stigma of bastardy by preventing much of the open living together out of wedlock. But there are certain phases of the problem that must be considered as an internal social one. Here the responsibility of the church commences. An effort is being made to establish a home for unmarried mothers. This movement should be encouraged in addition, a study and consideration of the matter should be undertaken with the object of prevention. The matter cannot be safely brushed aside by parents or regular status and highly developed homes, for the fate of every boy and girl is wrapped up in the lives of some boy or girl IN OTHER FAMILY.

J. Walker, but she is not forgotten. After all, however said it to realize that in the natural course of things we all must go, on the other hand it is heartening to know and feel that if we serve well and unselfishly we will not be forgotten. Madam-Walker will not only live in the charities that she added and the good that she did, but will live in the heart of every colored boy and girl and in the grateful consciousness of a struggling race. Madame C. J. Walker stands out as the premier philanthropist of her race, not because she was the first to give largely to the Y. M. C. A., but because her total philanthropic gifts are not even approached by any other person of the race. It must be remembered that in addition to her many other gifts, the large trust funds created, she left $60,000 in cash bequests to individuals, schools and colleges throughout the country. Yes, Madame C. J. Walker will be remembered, loved and honored on down the ages. Japs Move Out and Negroes Move In From the Oakland California Eagle It has recently been brought to our notice that throughout lower California there has been for at least a month a continual stream of Japanese pouring into Mexico from all quarters, while in the meantime their places are being rapidly filled by our colored people from the South and West Indies. Most of these places being filled by our people are vast stretches of fruit lands, oil plants and truck gardens.

Mr. E. D. Hubbard, Recently Returned From Liberia, Gives His Impressions of the Negro Republic— Says Country Is in Need of Settlers With Agricultural and Industrial Training—Warm, Healthy Climate and Fertile Lands NEGROES WHO KNOW HOW TO WORK AND WILL WORK SHOULD SETTLE THERE To the Editor of The Negro World: I beg to inform the public through the columns of your great paper, that after two years sojourn in Liberla, West, Coast, Africa, I have returned and am now touring the States in the interest of our work in Africa. I find so many who are anxious to know about Liberla and conditions as they exist there, that I thought it wise to give through the columns of your paper the gist of a conversation recently held by myself and an inquirer. Q. Rev. Hubbard, they tell me you have been two years in Liberia. A. Yes, I have worked very hard there for two years. Q. Well, reverend, tell me all about the country and conditions. A. I can't tell you all about it for I do not know all about it. You proceed to ask me such questions as you desire and I will answer them as best I can. I have only been over a small area of Liberia, hence that is the part that I can tell you about. Q. Is Liberia a Negro government? A. Yes, Liberia is a purely Negro republic, owned and controlled exclusively by Negroes. Q. Are there any white people there? A. Yes, there are a few white people there trading. No white people can hold office there. Q. I the land is fertile? A. The land seems to be about as the land of America; some places rich, and other places not so rich. Q. Can one make a living there? A. They can, if they will work. Q. What can you raise on the farm? A. Any product that is suited to a warm climate, such as corn, rice, sweet potatoes, sugar cane, cassava, eddoes, coffee, cocoa, water melons, cucumbers, okra, and garden vegetables of many kinds. Plantains, bananas, oranges, pine apples, and many other fruits and vegetables not mentioned. Q. If what you say is true, why then is it necessary for one to suffer over there? A. No industrious man need suffer for food there after he shall have built himself a house, cut, planted a farm and made one crop. No one should go there without money to build, cut and plant a farm and money enough to sustain him or horse and relatives until they can gather a crop. Q. Well, how much money will it take to do that? A. That will depend upon three things: The size of the family, the kind of house, size of farm you cut and how you spend your money. I should think that a man and big wife could make it very nicely on $1,000 after they are properly located. Agricultural Training Q. In your judgment, what kind of training is most needed over there? A. Agricultural and industrial training. Q. You don't open to impress me with the idea that the people there don't w how to farm, do you? A. Yes. That is just what I want to tell you. The people do not know how to farm so as to make a living. Q. How do the people farm over there? A. They cut the under or young bush and when that I do what takes about three four weeks, they they cut the large bush, big and little, I mean everything, and when that is dry they burn it off as you an old sage field. In the midst of whatever remains unburnt, they plant cassava, and when that comes up they sow rice broadcast and the women scratch the ground with small pieces of iron called a hoe. That is all the cultivation the land gets and whatever is made that way is what they have to live on. Q. You don't mean to tell me that they do not plow the land as we do here? A. Yes, that is what I mean. I have credit for being the first and only man who ever plowed with a horse in Liberia. Q. Did you have a horse? A. Yes. Q. Does he plow well? A. Of course, we had to train him to plow, after which we had no trouble with him. Q. Where did you get a horse? A. I got him over there. Q. Do they have houses there? A. If they did not have houses there I could not have purchased one there. Q. Do horses cost very much over there. A. My horse cost me fifteen pounds, English money, which equals $72. American money (Standard rate). Q. Did you get good results from cultivating the land with the plow? A. Yes. I had splendid results.

They are not expensive either 60 tablets 60 cents, and children take them like candy. One skinny woman gained 9 pounds in 24 days. "Get McCoy's, the original and genuine Cod Liver Oil Tablet." I planted one-half acre in sugar cane, and before I left there I rented a cane mill and ground, my cane and made syrup, and I made 134½ gallons from that one-half acre; 75 cents per gallon is cheap for syrup over there, so, figuring the syrup at 75 cents per gallon, you will find that we made $98.43% worth of syrup. I thought that was splendid results, don't you? Other products gave as good results. So I am very pleased with my experience thus far. Q. Do you think we Negroes ought to go over there? A. Yes; Some of our people should go over there and some should stay here. Q. Why not all the people go? A. Well, we have some people that are a nuisance anywhere. Q. What class of people do you think should go there? A. That is a vital question, yet, feel safe in answering it by saying that Liberia needs people with money, who know how to work, who are willing to work and who will work. Q. Isn't it so hot there that you can not work? A. No, my force goes to work at 7 o'clock in the morning works until 11:30 and begins work in the afternoon around 1:30 and 2 o'clock. Really, the heat does not worry us as bad as the heat in America. It is never cool enough for you to make a fire to warm by. Sometimes, in July and December if you have a fire you will feel like sitting by it. Q. Isn't there plenty of gold, diamonds and other minerals there? A. There is some gold and other minerals there, but as yet they have not been found in paying quantities. Q. What about the gold mine that LET'S PUT IT OVER was being operated there before the war? A. By reason of the war, the gold mine operations ceased, and, notwithstanding the thousands of dollars worth of machinery there being eaten up by the rust, those who operated the mine have not returned to work it again. This says to me that they were not getting gold in paying quantities. Q. Is there no one digging gold there now? A. Yes; there are two colored men there digging gold, but I was informed by one who is in position to know that they were not making expenses, and if they did not do better soon they would cease to dig. Q. What about the wild animals? Do they not disturb you? A. The worst animal we have in the section where I was is the leopold, and he will not attack a human until after he has been wounded. LAW and Citizenship Q. What about getting land after you reach Liberia? A. I have been informed by one of the prominent lawyers there that the government will give to every one who becomes a citizen ten acres of land. That is, the husband ten acres and the wife ten acres, making twenty acres, and then you can purchase more from the government at a reasonable price. Q. Well, I guess you are tired of me asking so many foolish questions. A. Well, I would not consider them so foolish, for the truth about Liberia should be known. There have been many false rumors about Liberia, hence I delight to answer your questions. Well, I will see you another time, revered, and then we will talk more. All right, my brother, any time will suit me. Respectfully yours. E. D. HUBBARD. Detroit, Mich. [Picture of a man with a high collar and a tie.] Dhassi Will Tell You FREE LET'S PUT IT OVER HON. MARCUS GARVEY SHOULD WE HAVE OUR OWN CONGRESSMAN NOW? Equity Congress Discusses the Subject and Decides That the Time Is Ripe for the Movement to Secure One Equity Congress met in regular session Synday afternoon, June 1, at 5 o'clock, in Elks Hall, 163 West 129th street, second floor front, with Speaker Charles H. Bailey in the chair. After the reading of the minutes and transaction of routine business the speaker announced that discussion of the subject of the day was in order. The subject was, "Why Don't We Send One of Our Group to Congress." The speaker of the hour was the veteran journalist, T. Thomas Fortune, editor of The Negro World, who made a running narrative of what we have received in politics as compared to what we have failed to secure. Mr. Fortune drew much applause by his good-natured witfulness, mixed with his statements of fact and good advice. It is believed that we are now well on the way to achieve the end that is so much desired; that is, direct representation, by electing one of our own race to the national House of Representatives. By motion the chair was authorized to appoint a committee to take up the question of selecting a candidate to be Indorsed by our organization. The subject for the coming Sunday was then announced, namely, "That It Is the Feeling of Equity Congress That All Officers In the Fifteenth Infantry Shall Be Race Men, from Colonel Down to Lance Corporal." This is a matter that affects us all very vitally, and it is hoped that all members will be present and join in the discussion. These meetings will continue until the above two principal objects have been accomplished, and it is promised that our candidate for Congress will be named in the next five weeks. The speaker called on all organizations, churches, societies, etc., to co-operate in naming for and electing to this office a candidate thoroughly equipped and fitted to represent the race in the most approved manner, and all present heartily promised their enthusiastic moral and financial support.

The Nation Mr. Eugene O'Neill has at last hit upon tragedy. He has the theme, the intensity, the terror and exaltation. All this will be missed by those who see the play through a curtain of words. Such words as miscegenation, for instance. It will be missed by those who indulge in sociological reflections. Mr. O'Neill has fortunately gone much deeper. He starts with a fact, a credible fact. There is the city slum; there is Jim Harris; there is Ella Downey. It is easy to object: Why mate a first-rate Negro with a third-rate white woman? Because these are the facts. They are credible; they are nearly inevitable. Only this woman would have married a Negro in America today. Only this Negro, on the other hand, would have had both the mentality and the devotion. The woman has been flung aside by a scoundrel of her own race. Jim loves her and wants to save her. In her stark loneliness and insincerity she accepts. An educated woman would never have found herself in quite that position; an educated woman, even if it were conceivable for her to risk the consequences of this step, would never have revealed in sanity or madness what needed to be revealed, what is beyond all else the tragic theme—the immemorial, inexplicable character of race prejudice. It is in revealing this dark and secret thing that O'Neill reaches a height bitherto inaccessible to him. It is profoundly impressive and true that Ella was not happy in France since, she took her soul and its memories and instincts with her; it is a master-stroke that she does not want Jim to pass his bar examination, since that would destroy the ultimate feeling of superiority to which she clings and which, she thinks, sustains her. The case of Negro and White is a terrible case, an executive one, a case surrounded with myth, fear, terror. But it does not stand alone. All deep divisions or supposedly deep divisions have a like effect. A Gentile wife at some moment of crisis muttering the word dew under her breath, a French wife, in 1915, the word Hum—these are other symbols out of which comparable tragedies could have been built. And as Mr. O'Neill's tragedy points to these others, so would those others have pointed to his. I do not mean that he has not very honestly and concretely dealt with his Negro man and his white woman. But the problem he has selected cleves so near the bone of human life itself that it possesses a transcendent symbolic character. There are not many, such themes in the world; this is one of them. It is amusing to contemplate the state of mind of the people who were determined to be shocked by this play, of the critics who excused themselves for trying to view it objectively, of the Gerry Society which, at heart for the opening night, refused to rescue the permit that would have made possible the performance of the prologue by white and colored children. It is amusing since all these things serve but to emphasize the truth of Mr. G'Nell's delineation of Ella Downey's soul. He create Ella Downey and at once found the world full of Ella Downey. The production of the Provinetown Players is notably fine. Mr. Paul Robinson is a super actor, extraordinarily sincere and eloquent. Misa Mary Blatt was a little halting in the earlier scenes; later she rose to the occasion and was literally thrilling at moments. I must not omit to mention excellent work by Frank Wilson and Dora Cole, nor the slum scene by Mr. Throckmorton, nor the directing of Mr. James Coming Events-All Harlem Is Talking About It On Thursday night of this week, June 5th, the biggest ball of the day will be staged at the New Star Casino, 1971th Street and Lexington Avenue, New York City, by the African Royal Guard of the U.N.L.A.

I have seen far more beauty and intelligence and mobility than there are in this production and this play. I have seen nothing that so deeply gave me an emotion comparable to what the driest must have felt at the dark and drenched actions set forth by the older Attie dramatism. And these actions, too, had their origin in inexpennable myth and ancient terror. LET'S PUT IT OVER MR. WALTER R. DUNBAR A Promising Musician Mr. Walter Rudolph Dunbar, a young clarinetist, of outstanding ability, has graduated from the Institute of Musical Art, New York City, as supervisor of music. He intends to take a post-graduate course at the institute, and his future plans also include a stay in Europe. Mr. Dunbar is one of those young men whose success is all the more noteworthy by reason of the obstacles they have had to overcome in their climb to success and the dogged determination with which they pursue the goal. He is a musician of great promise and his future efforts in his chosen field will be watched with interest. His brilliant recitals in Harlem have been the means of giving the public an opportunity to appraise his talent, and when, as he plans, he conducts his own orchestra next season, a large measure of success should be his. SIR ROBT. LINCOLN POSTON By VICTOR G. COHEN When freedom from her mountain height Unfurled her standard to the air, She tore the azure robe of night And set the stars of glory there— For liberty. "Go, Poston," said our Leader great, "And take this message to our Land; Tell them our future is at stake So join us now in this demand— For liberty." When duty called he answered "Yes, I'll take this message to our Land!" Tired and weary, you needed rest, But you obeyed the great command— For liberty. "Come, Poston," said our Maker great, "Your work is done, come home and rest— Come, enter through this nearly gate Where there is peace, Love, happiness And liberty." Brooklyn, N. Y.

FREETOWN, AFRICA In the Gold Coast Leader Freetown, when God made thee, He made thy soil alone; Then threw the rich remainder in the sea. Small inlets cradled He in jet black stone; Small bays of transient blue He lulled to sleep. Within jet rocks, filled from the Atlantic deep. Then God let loose wee harbingers of song. He scattered palms profusely o'er the ground. Then grew tall grasses, who, in happy birth. Reached up, to kiss each palm tree that they found. "This is My gem." God whispered. This shall be. To Me a jewel, in blue turquoise set." Thus spake the mouth of Life's Eternity. There tranquilly lies Freetown, even yet.

Girls Anywhere Can Have Credit Unions of Their Own Gradually there have grown up in the United States some two hundred credit unions or co-operative banks with combined assets of more than $12,000,000, which is safely and bene-socially loaned out among the members. Gertrude Mathews Shelby, who has studied every phase of this co-operative banking movement discuses "The Human Side of Credit Unions" in the June Century. She says in part: "The Boston Telephone Company lends a striking illustration of the fact that employees prefer the increased self respect that comes from having a right to call upon their own association for a lift over the rough places in the road rather than to have agreements affected by the philanthropy of the employers. Six years ago the company was obliged to keep a legal staff to handle cases of garnished wages and loan-shark tangles. One year after the telephone-workers started their own credit union, the company was entirely free of that legal expense. Their organized employees had already assets of $90,000, and the man they elected president, Charles F. Donahoe, had virtually converted all members to paying cash for clothing, furniture, coal, and other large purchases. Even when it was necessary to borrow at 6 per cent, employees could often effect economies. Telephone girls had formerly bought much clothing at excessive prices on the installment plan, shoddy stuff worn out before paid for. A little education, the credit union at hand for saving a little out of the pay envelope each week, and the exploitation of the numerous installment houses was virtually abolished. "Credit unions among telephone operatives spread throughout Massachusetts cities. There are 6,000 members now. Many saved enough in the credit union to buy company stock. Employees now hold a substantial block. Altogether, these credit unions will soon have a million assets." 135th Street Library Notes The Goldenwelser lectures:—In June Professor Alexander Goldenwelser will continue his course of lectures which was interrupted.

Alexander Reid, Cámaguey, Cuba, Esteemed Bard: Greetings from the Golden Gateway, Bard where Carib zephyrs blow. Nightingales were singing sweetly When I caught thy music's flow. Down the alale of my emotions Soft it floated as the light Of the moon' that crowned the glory Of the California night. In the silence and the beauty Twilight held her breath, methought. Like a harp that pauses plaintive When the sweeter tones are caught. As thy "greetings" played the music On the evening's mystic lyre, Carib zephyrs fanned me gently Till the day laid down its tire. Ah! I felt thy gentle presence, Singer in the Carib strand! In the orange grove I loitered, Thinking of our native land. In the sheltered, hallowed shadow, Washed by moonlight spotless clean. Like a phantom spirit waved it. Streamed the Red, the Black, the Green. It was like a hand from glory Soft unfurled it to the gloom That its folds might feel the moonlight And embrace the night's perfume. Then I spake with thee in spirit: See, it's more than phantom dream; For its image is reflected In the garden's moonlit stream. Then I fell into deep musing. When thou left I mayst not know.

Bradley, W.- LISTEN! were holding back. At this stage he introduced the ex-president of the Port-of-Spain division, Mr. E. J. Lewis, who presented his credentials, which were read. Mr. Lewis was sent by Mr. Brathwaite, the commissioner of the island, to represent the U. N. I. A., as he was unable to attend. After a lengthy program and as the hour was already far advanced into the evening, Mr. Lewis called upon Master Jeffries, who unvelled the charter. Several speakers delivered inspiring addresses and, the meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the anthem. It is with regret that we have to report the death of Bro. W. S. Bennett which took place on Friday, March 14. Bro. Bennett contracted a cold from exposure during the revolutionary period in Tela Honouras, which resulted in pneumonia, and notwithstanding the careful attention and medical skill of the doctors of the Tela Railroad Hospital he succumbed: His remains were taken to the Samaritans' Hall, of which order he served faithfully as treasurer and was raised to the exalted position of a past officer. At 7 A. M. the next day, the funeral rites being performed in the lodge hall, his remains were removed to his residence and from there to his last resting place. Brother Bennett was one who caught the spirit of the new Negro, and in June, 1520, helped to form the Tela Division. From its inception he was elected treasurer, and from his careful administration, he has left a record of every cent intrusted to him. During those years he preached Gervasey and had all hopes of hearing the sacred colors of a government over the plains of our motherland, but the fell Destroyer has put an end to all his hopes and aspirations. On Sunday, March 30, a memorial service was conducted in our Liberty Hall when Commissioner Thorpe and President Buckner cologized on the usefulness of the Brother and the loss the division had sustained. Towards the close of the service, words of consoction were extended to a strenken and bereaved mother, sisters and a brother who are now mourning their inpreparable loss, while special mention was made of his beloved wife who was then in Jamaica. To his dear mother, sisters and brother the Tela Division extends its deepest sympathy. During this service the sad news of the death of Sir Robert Poston, secretary general of the U. N. L. A., reached us when a loving tribute was paid to the dead hero of African redeemment. It is necessary access to mention the gloom and sadness that overshadowed all concerned, knowing that one in DON'T BE Unlucky! A 14 inch square board with a large hole in the center.

PORT LIMON, COSTA·RICA PORT LIMON, COSTA·RICA The Port Limon Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League is still going strong. Members and friends of the division hero are now taking the sims and objects of the Universal Negro improvement Association more seriously than they have done in the past. At first it was taken by some as a huge joke, but conditions are changed and they are lining up one by one. Last week the Boy Scout and Girls Guild of the Guabito Division paid us a visit which we appreciated very highly. Their behaviour was excellent, and we shall be glad of their company at any time. The Rt. Rev. Bishop H. Jackson (white) is a friend of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, he is always encouraging the members of his church to join the U. N. I.

SPANISH SECTION La participación de los Estados Unidos en la corte permanente internacional de justicias será uno de los puntos del programa que se someterá al pueblo norteamericano en la próxima campaña presidencial, según aseguraron los miembros del comité de relaciones exteriores del senado, que han reanudado la consideración de cuatro proposiciones en conflicto para incorporarse al tribunal. Unión universal de la raza con el propósito de cooperar al desarrollo de Liberia y de Abisinia—El futuro industrial, comercial y duecativo en Africa—Los descendientes de judea constituyen la Palestina; los descendientes de Etiopia constituyen y progresan en Liberia. Los republicanos irreconciliables del comite legaron a un acuerdo de primera intención con los miembros defuocatras, partidarios de la liga para presentar informe al senado sobre la incorporación en alguna forma de los Estados Unidos. Sobre el mejor método se encuentran todos divididos los irreconciliables, adhiriendose tuios a Lodge, que tiene su propio plan de corte y aspira a que se le tonne, en cunta para su aprobación por las naciones de la Lira. Nuestra organización, indiscutiblemente es, mas poderoso de todos.los movimientos de progresi de la raza, somete a la amplia consideración de esta su programa del presente, siendo su más ferviente anhelo la activa cooperación en pro de una causa común. Ella persigue a todo transe la unificación de los cuatrocientos millones de miembros de la raza dentro de un cuerpo orgazado, con el objeto de laborar por su emancipación industrial y política. Otres -irreconcilables, 'capitaneados por el senador Wadsworth de Nueva York, quieren que los Estados Unidos se incorporen condiciualmente, con una salveda que los mantenga separados de la Liga. Este plan, redactado por el senador Pepper de Peunsylavnia, con la ayuda de otros miembros del comité cuenta con mayores probabilidades. Aspira ademas, no solamente adquirir un país en donde desenvolvere como una fuerza nacional, sino también llevar a la raza por el sendero del adelanto y de la prosperidad. Realizamos que una raza que es dependiente industrialmente, se convierte en una esclava de las demás; y en tal estado de cosas hemos permanecido por mas de tresciento años. Tiempo es ya para que el elemento de luz y de entendimiento haga buen uso de sus abilities y de sus energias, ayudando al establecimiento de una firme base industrial. Los senadores democratas eston por cualquiera o todos los planes, en la esperanza o llevar la proposición ante el senado y ante el público. Un plan separado presenado por el senador Swanson de Virginia, permitiría a los Estados Unidos incorporarse por el extinto presidente Harding y el secretario de estado Hughes. Toda vez que logremos independizar la raza industrialmente, tendremos mejor oportunidad para realizar gradualmente todas nuestras aspiraciones. Con el propósito de hacer esta base industrial lo mas firme posible, presentamos a la raza la consideración del desarrollo de la república de Liberia, a la cual debe ir, todo aquel posibilidad, bajo los auspicios de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Négra, a aportar su óbolo en tal dirección. Las posibilidades industriales, comerciales y agricolas de aquel país no estan aun prescritas, la explotación de las cuales quedarán a cargo de aquellos de preclara inteligencia que descen constituir alli su nuevo hogar. El senador Wadsworth hizo una declaración at efecto de que no se harán esfuerzo para retardar la consideración de la proposición de la corte mundial y que los republicanos están preparando un esquema para concluir las diferencias de los se oponen a que los Estados Unidos se incorporan a la corte, plan que si se LET'S PUT IT OVER leva a cabo habria una verdadera corte mundial, pero siempre que se la separara completemente de la Liga de Naciones. Predice este senador que uno de los varios planes seria presentado a la consideración del senado en las proxximas dos semanas, con el objeto de llamar la atención del público hacia el proyecto. Liberia es una república cuyos destinos estan en manos de elemento de nuestra raza, ofreciendo a nuestro pueblo la mas grande oportunidad para su desenvolvimiento. Nuestra organización advierte a todos, especialmente a sus miembros, el aventajarse de esta gran oportunidad, formando parte integrante de la ciudadania de esta nación que se levanta. Abisinia ofrece también la misma oportunidad, pero no hemos preparado aun los planes para su colonización; actualmente estamos empeñados en la realización de todos y cada uno de los puntos del programa concerniente al desarrollo industrial y por ende al adelanto y prosperidad de aquella república. El senador Lodge considera que no sera posible dejar soluciónada tan importante cuestion en las dos semanas proximas, con la votación del cuerpo, pero que tiene eperanza de que el comité que preside haga alguna proposición sobre la materia al pueblo de los Estados Unidos. Esta organización intenta invertir millones de pesos durante este año y el venidero en la realización de los planes de colonización en pro del desarrollo de Liberia, y presentimos que con la cooperación de sus miembros universalmente, dentro de breve tiempo podemos demostrar al mundo nuestra capacidad para desenvolvernos, toda vez que no se nos moleste. La oportunidad para asistir en la constitución de un país propio, donde la paz y la felicidad esten garantizadas, es para nosotros sin igual. Una y otra vez hemos contribuido a la constitución de otras naciones, habiendo sido el blanco donde dirijeron todas sus arbitrariedades y en muchos casos privándosos del sagrado derecho a la vida; pero en ,sta los cuatrocientos millones de la raza tenemos la oportunidad de consolidar nuestra energia educativa, industrial y financiera, en el establecimiento de un país podemos llamar nuestro. El senador King presentó al senado una resolución en que se proyece que los Estados Unidos entren en la corte mundial, pero cumendan-dela de tal modo que los Estados Unidos queden con facultad para someter a no en disputa a dicho tribunal y que no aceptan ninguna de las obligaciones del tratado de paz de Versailles, pero quedando con el derecho de elegir jueces. Exclusión inmigratoria El presidente Coolidge ha aprobado la ley de inmigración que le enviara el Congreso. Después del resultado del veto a la ley del bono militar, no era humana esperar que el ejecutivo valviera a dar a sus adversarios una oportunidad lucida para arrollarlo. El sentimineto en el Congreso era visiblement favorable a la aprobación del proyecto de ley, con o contra el criterio de Conjude. El continente africano es la cuna de todo el elemento de nuestra raza, y la república de Liberia es la gran puerta de entrada a la madre patria de nuestros antepasados. Esforcémonos por su engrandecimiento, colocándola en un sitio promiente entre las naciones del universo. De la misma manera que el anglosajon, el galo, el malayo y otros laboraron por el adelanto y prosperidad de sus respectivas naciones, hasta verlas figurando en la primera línea de batalla por su subsistencia, laboremos también nosotros en pro del desarrollo de la república de Liberia. Característica especial de la nueva ley es la clasula, categoría y terminante, de la exclución de los japoneses de la categoria de inmigrantes a la Estado Unidos. Todas las gestiones del Departamento de Estado han sido injuítes. La intensidad de la oposición de la representación diplomática americana a la exclusión de los nipones está con sagrada por la renuncia del enajader en Tokio, Woods, inmediatamente después de conocido el final de las negociaciones. Constituyamos alli nuestros nuevos hogares, garantizando de ese modo la protección de nuestros hijos y de las generaciones venideras de una nación propia, suficientemente fuerte y mayormente respetada. Laboremos, hemos de repetir, en tal sentido y utilicemos todo cuanto esta a nuestro alcance para llevar avante el programa que esta organización ha delineado en el presente, de cuya realización ha de resultar la felicidad que disfrutaremos en el porvenir. Por lo dennis, la ley es de restricción franca de la inmigración europea del sur. Los españoles tienen una cuota que no excede mucho, si excede al fin algo, al centenar. No puede darse más radical limitation. De nuevo hemos de advertir a todos los miembros, capitulos y divisiones de esta organización, que nuestra convención del presente año admitirá exclusivamente a los delegados de aquellas divisiones que se hallen al corriente con la oficina general, para tomar participación directa en la sanción de los asuntos que conciernen a los intereses de la misma. Es deber de todo miembro el velar por la buena marcha de la division a que pertenezca, y que ésta remita semanalmente su informe de las listas de los fondos recaudados para los gastos de la convención que tendrá lugar en esta ciudad, durante todo el mes de agosto venidero. Evidentemente, los extranjeros sólo tienen una regla de conducta ante las leyes aprobadas en el pais en que residen: acatarlas con el mayor respeto. Eso hay que hacer aquí con la nueva ley de inmigración. Su espiritu, de exclusión y hasta de hostilidad para cierta clase de extranjeros is lamentable: Sin embargo, hay que reconocer que recoge la opinion de grandes masas populares en todo el país. Cabe especular sobre la posibilidad de que haya inflUIDo en orientar asi la opinión pública, el hecho de que la clausura japonese no podía aprobarse sin otras disposiciones exclusivas en contra de diferentes nacionalidades occidentales. De todos modos, en muchos circulos autorizados hay todavía la esperanza de que en un porvenir más o menos próximo se rectifique la actual tendencia. Y que, en una orientación más en armonia con el espirital democrático y universalista, de este país, se estime que la alfuencia a los Estados Unidos de europeos de otros pueblos, que los favorecidos por la ley en su nueva forma, en vez de perijudivar, al progreso de la nación contribuirán a acelerarlo como lo han hecho desde los primeros tiempos del engrandecimiento de la Unión. Los presidentes no renuncian Guando el senador Glass afirmó en Filadelfia que si el fuera presidente y no pudiera obtener de su partido bastantes votos para apoyar el veto de una ley como el proyecto del Bono, renunciaria, probablemente no establecía ni una doctrina constitucional ni un programa político. Su observación fue sin duda destinada, antes que nada, como un pequeño chorro de vitriol hacia Mr. Coolidge: Es de presumir que Mr. Glass cree que el presidente no ejerció todos sus poderes como ejecutivo o puso en juego todas las fuerzas que controla como jefe del partido con objeto de impedir el bono. Con su candidatura en la imagination el senador Glass indulgeablemente trato de crear la impresión de que si el fuera electo presidente insistiría en el estricto y vigoroso mantenimiento de todas las prerrogativas de su cargo. De hecho, es enteramente improbable que si Mr. Glass se hallara en el lugar de Mr. Coolidge hoy renunciaria a la presidencia. El hacerlo además de poner los negocios del estado en gran confusión e incertidumbre, es contrario a la teoría total de muestro gobierno. Elegimos un presidente para un periodo determinado. No designamos primeros ministros con su estancia en el cargo sujea a las vicisitudes del control de la mayoría en el congreso. Es exacto que el presidente es, puede ser, el jeffe de su partido, como lo es un primer ministro. Pero las dos funciones son separadas, y no deberían confundirse en el sentido de que el presidente pudiera esperarse que procediera en una crisis como lo haria un primer ministro. El presidente Wilson, comodo el mundo sabe, estaba enamoradismo del sistema parlamentario de gobierno y trato de introducir DO NOT FORGET The First Annual Military and Full Dress Ball That Will Be Given to THE AFRICAN ROYAL GUARDS at NEW STAR CASINO at Washington Ave. THIS SUNDAY NIGHT MUSIC BY the Lafayette Band algumas de sus ideas y procedimientos mientras se hallagun la presidencia. Pero cuando su apuesta fracasó no remuneció y evidentemente ni siquiera pensó en encargo. Había sido una gran equivocación en que renunciara. Por aquel tiempo muy sensatamente abandonó laoria de que existía un primer ministro americano y calladamente volvió al plan constitucional de un presidente elegido por cuatro años, cuyo debes era elecuat la leyes y conducir las relaciones internacionales del país sin atención al viven de las mayoras etuel congresso. Se afirma que la remunita pude ser la una arma que un presidente tenga en uso contra un congreso de mastado podetoso y a urapardor. Pero no es evidentemente un arma que se de romperia en las manos. No tendría medios de apelar directa e indirectamente al pueblo para que decidiera entre el y el congreso. Renunciar podía senilitamente ser rendirse a sus enemigos. ¿Qué no habría da el congreso ha securizado años por inducir al presidente Andrew Johnson a renunciar? El congreso era entonces mucho más impulsivo en su desgo de controlar al presidente de lo que hoy. Se trató de deshacerse de el proceso-dolo. El fracaso de aquel procesos mirado por todos más posterioriores historiadores políticos como una hendición para la nación al establecer para siempre la autoridad independiente del congreso. Si Andrew Johnson hubiera renunciado en el impulso de un pánico, habría olvidado su juramento al tomar posición del cargo y su obligación de conservar las facultades de la presidencia maliterables; mientras el congreso jubilamente habria pasado sobre su cadivera para apoderarse de la supremacia en el gobierno que trataba de capturar. En Francia, en estos momentos, vemos la formación de otro esfuerozo para arrojar al presidente antes de la expiración de su periodo. El sistema francés es mixto. Tiene un presidente electo por un periodo preciso y cuenta también con un primer ministro que depende de la mayoría de la camara de diputados—N. Y. Tímese. Coolidge se canoó demasiado pronto de su buena labor como presidente vante. Deberia haber devuelto al Congreso con adecuadas palabras de repudiación al proyecto de ley de inmigración que tenían duras firmen. La clausula de exclusión de los japoneses que está incluida en la ley presenta a un cobarde Congreso en su peor aspecto. Ng hubo la menor excusa para el insulga a una nación orgulosa y anigua. El sistema de cuotas sólo habria admitido menos de doscientos japoneses de las clases prohibidas; el convenio entre caballeros además, habria hecho la exclusión prácticamente total. Ni ha habido tampoco necesidad de poner en peligro de dejar al pais sin una ley de inmigración cuando la actual expira el 30 de junio. El Congreso podria haber vuelto a examinar de nuevo el proyecto de ley en una hora sin la clausula de exclusión japonesa. Este delibrado cabotage de nuestras relaciones internacionales no ha tenido otro propósito que el de aspiración a los votos de los exaltados de los estados del Pacífico. Cuando el Congreso da notas de demagogia profunda, el pueblo vuelve la vista al presidente para interponer su veto. Elijo ha respondido al país.—N. Y. World.

El vijayero accidental que penetraba alli encontraba una antigua ciudad española encaramada sobre las Ames una ciudad ya vieja cuando Nueva York era una pequeña coloma holandesa y las ranatodia cobraban en el actual emplazamiento de Chicago y una pequeña aristocracia, todos poetas o políticos, o ambas cosas, que ha mantenido su sangre espanola más pura quiza que cualquiera de las similares oligarquías sudamericanas. Bogotá es todavía bonita y encantadora, pero el aeroplano, el automóvil, el cine y el rado han transfomado su ambiente en gran parte, no obstante. Los subways laboran bajo las agilidades calle de Buenos Aires. En Santiago de Chile, con el nivalvillo se utiliza de boca de los Andes.

En reunión, por mucho que el sentimiento taquea dulce. Hispano-Americana esta hacecendo una parte del mundo moderno. Simbolo tal el caso, canal será efecto del levantamiento más o menos proletario de Europa, en una región en la que la situación de las más humildes clases de trabajadores ha seguido siendo evidemente atrasada? En una considerable parte del continente del sur el pecho ha vivido y sigue viviendo, bajo un orden económico algo diferente en lo esencial, del de los siervos, o de la esclavitud. Algunas veces las relaciones entre patrinos y labadores son patriciarias y placeranas, lo mismo que lo eran en muchas de las plantaciones del sur o en muchas estancias del antiguo regimen de Rusia; a veces, como en los bosques cancheros, son cabominables. Y los extranjeros no estan enteramente limpios del pecado de aprovechar de estas costumbres y usos locales. Era divertido observar amas de casa de pines rudos del oeste-central, acotumbradas a las criadas alquileras, o hasta a la habitó de hacerse cada una su casa, después de vivir varios años en la ciudad de Méjico y ser servidas por una docena o más de criados de pies descalzos a los que se les pagaba poco o nada, con mezclar a alabar las ventajas de una sosiedad en la que existiera una else de sirvientes bien definida. Era algo menos que divertido ver a sus maridos, en algunas plantaciones acuzarceras de tierra caliente conduciendo a sus trabajadores enganchados fuera de los alojamientos al anamecer, vigilándoles trabajar bajo un sol calcinante, con un rifle a través de la silla del caballo, y después encerrarlos al anochecer. Cuado tales cosas son costumbres del país es apenas justo criticarlas según los patrones de Kansas o de Nueva Inglaterra. En las mejores clases de haciendas los peones inducablemente estaban "contentos". No soblan de otra major. Pere supongase que se ha ganado general la idea y es difícil ver como no ha de extenderse las ideas que apoya la revolución de toda Europa oriental, inchyendo los edificos balticos y Polonia alf como Rusia, pueden mantener alejadas de Sud América supongase que se ha ganado general la idea de que estas "costumbres del país", no son celebritas e inmodificables? Está no es una profecia de un iminente levantamiento bolsheviki en Sud América. El clima, las dificultades del transporte, todas las clases de factores se hallan contra una rapiida extension allí de cualquier clase de ideas. Pero con costumbres de trabajo reconocidamente tan anticuadas como lo son frecuentes en este continente, la acción de la levadura europea de la masa hispanoamericana está destinada a ser uno de los más significativos desagrollos de la proxima generación. UNA DIVISA UNIVERSAL Como un gran escritor Frances entiende que deben ser consideradas las palabras igualdad, Libertad y fraternidad Uni divisa immortal; habrá alguien que no lo sepa? Libertad, Iguallad y Fraternidad. Nunca le hemos practicado desde el 1972 con tant justicia como la conilitad en el momento actual. La tomanos ahora con un significado más completo que cuando fue inventada, formulada a muestra disciplina interna. Entonces eran un tenu nacional por dos circunstancias primarias; erá que nuestros antepasados pretendían a ser libres, a ser iguales, a ser hemanos, y para el inpulso que nosotros hemos hecho para nuestra propia salvaguardia, este se aplica a todos los pueblos. Es que no queremos que nuestros enemigos nos crean sumamente egostas, pues nuestra vehementia, nuestra labor es para todos los pueblos; que todos sean aceptados, que todos giren sobre el mismo nivel y compartan la triple ventaja de Iguallad. Libertad y Fraternidad. Libertad—No queremos que un pueblo por más fuerte y poderoso que sea se abrugue el derecho de egemonia o el dominio sobre otros pueblos; no queremos que solamente bajemos la servis a un rey que domine a un país; no queremos que exista un pueblo despoja y una raza tirinica; que no haya puibles tiranos y puibles ocelavos; que asi mismo la divisa sea por igual; que todo tenga un mismo alcance; que todo esté interesado hacia una misma inspiración, tal como lo demanden les circunstancias, acento lo demanden les ambiciones. Libertad nacional si mas también libertad internacional independiente de toda las naciones, lo que proclama y graveidea la primera palabra de nuestra divisa. Ignidadada - Para que sean libres los pueblos, deben ser iguales. Hay designada el material tiscanico en territorio y población, deben ser iguales en derecho. De la misma manera que se la citado deberan ser iguales ame la ley, y corresumenante los pueblos todos deben ser iguales en derecho. Ningun pueblo protejido por su fortaleza debe tener autoridad para primir al debil. De derecho con siderado a los pueblos debiles debe estar en el mismo nivel para los pueblos fuertes, y así que dan balanceados detechos tan sagrados, tanto para los mismos como para los otros. Una puebla y una justicia: una justicia que no admite grado de diferencia entre las naciones; una justicia que reconoce el mismo derecho a la vida en todos los pueblos; que le asista a los pueblos fuertes el prestigio de asular y de aconsejar a los pueblos debiles, este como también corresponde a los pueblos debiles el condyugar vivir con los pueblos fuertes. Paz e igualdad mate el derecho es lo que debe exigir-e a todos los pueblos que tengan una misma justicia. Así mismo la segunda palabra de mestera divisa para que se debile dulcamente interpretada en su sentido lato, con toda su significado humana, debe ser aplicada tanto a los pueblos como a los individuos, para constituer una democracia universal, lo que es lo mismo a decir, el dominio de cada pueblo por si propio. Fraternidad. -- Una fraternidad que traiga por consecuencia un conjunto más integrado de lo que podemos llamar libertad e igualdad. Para que los ciudadanos todos sean libres; para que sean iguales en derecho, donde el mas fuerte, proteja y respete el derecho del mas débil; donde un individuo no sea oprimido por el otro individuo; donde establecido este completo entendimiento haya una confianza reciproca, una concordia universal que se llamaria fraternidad. Para que todos los pueblos sean libres e iguales en derecho, para que el débil pueda con el fuerte y también en ciertas ocaciones el fuerte pueda contar con el débil, as para ello que debera establecer una confianza internacional que floresca en otras tantas fraternidades universales; para este efecto debera organizarse una in- tanta vida y determinada vida las propiedades que, en general, una tarea necessitada y de una usuión, en compendida en una sólo determinada tarea por de gíaden. Las guerras por la pendencia estén saliendo necesaria y expertense, "instabilidad del das por los desiguales de Dios," de que una frase magnifica del que Lamaritine. Una Ilustración y un grualidad bien compendida, progres samente entendidas, que estuvien una fraternidad como un símbolo to en flor que de su fruta; y que todo una divisa. La divisa divisa pasará a ser una divisa internacional; divisa política convertida de una divisa universal, y esta es la forma por la cual todos nosocor- combatimos. Sera- una honra para la Francia que su divisa nacional se desbrocha no en una divisa de naciones; que no sea- una divisa nacional; que se venga a convertir en el propio espíritu del universo, y que al mismo como alma de Francia, se transforme en el alma del mundo.

Somehow we have .no anfficient history of what otir men and women have done Yo entitle “ther to our admiration and emulation. We have a striking illustra- tion of the general’ ignorance of race history in the sélection of the ten greatest Negroes of the race recently given the country. as the result of the conclusions of an alleged American Negro Students’ something. Only three of those named have any rightful place in ‘the selections made, primarily because they have finished their work jand aré dead. The living selections are all liable to be’ tried and “genter.ced to the-penitentiary or hung dead by the neck before they finish their work,-as the ordinary vicissitude of life, thé uncertainties of fortune, never can be prophesied in advance. Among the*women ofthe race who stand out conspicuously for having done symething worth while, and who are worthy to be con- sidered great, we may mention, among educators, Mrs. Charl.tte Forten-Girimké. Miss) Martha B, Briggs, Mrs. Fannie Jackson Coppin. Miss Maria Ballwin: among writers, Phyllis Wheatley, the Misses Bray. Frances Ellen Watkins Harper,’ Mrs, Bozeman. Mat thews, Victoria Farle Matthews, and there are many women of the race now living. engaged in teaching or literary pursuits, and in music and the drama, whe are making a place for themselves in the history of the race. Another time sw may have something to say.of some vi the living Women of the race who are doing things. And in all of the activities of life our women are measuring up to the highest standard of service, of accomplishment, and always leading our men in service and sacrilice. _PARISIAN WOMEN INVEST THEIR MONEY IN JEWELRY Safe in Case of War za ere et ee I F Will \t Remow: 2 Dep Fe these BEDE = ie rs oe ao My Dear “< se ffyee wat WAS EF) you?

L'Association Universelle pour l'Avancement de la Race Négre dans le monde entier est unique dans son genre, exceptionnelle dans son programme, et la seule institution de son espèce dont les efforts pour la réhabilitation de la Race Noire se repercutent jusqu'aux confins du globe habitable. Cette dite Association fait appel à l'amour propre de chaque membre en particulier, demandant sa considération personnelle qui n'en visage que le bien-être général de la collectivité. Le bit avéré de l'Association est d'en faire une l'amalgamation des 400.000.000 de notre Race et une federation solide qui, à son tour, aura pour devoir impérioux les destinées politiques, commerciales et industrielles de la Race. Nous seulement que nous voulons avoir un pays à nous appartenant, un pays où nous pouvons évoluer comme un force nationale, mais un pays où nous pouvons travailler pour l'éimancipation économique de notre Race partout où elle se trouve. Nous savons qu'une Race qui est éternellement à la charge d'une autre race finit par devenir une vassale économique et politique de la race à laquelle elle est assujettie. Telle a été notre condition pendant les trois derniers siècles. Le moment est arrivé où les hommes éclairés de notre Race doivent se servir de leur lumière et de leur énergie pour établir une base soifde pour leurs congénères dans le domaine économique, politique et industriel. Dès que nos efforts premiers soient couronnés de shecès, il y aura pour nous toutes les raisons du monde de croire que les autres changements que nous envisageons seront également réalisés par notre Race. Dans le but de consolider, tant qu'il est humainement possible, les bases industrielles sur lesquelles la race doit bâtir son avenir, nous demandons à la race elle-même de concentrer tous ses efforts sur le développement économique de la petite République Notre de Liberia. Nous voulons voir representer dans cette dite République les diverses familles de notre Race qui sont a même de s'y établir, afin d'ajuer dans l'évolution nationale d'un pays essentiellement Négre. Les ressources industrielles, agricoles et commerciales de Liberia sont innombrables, et l'exploitation des dites ressources est une question à résoudre par le sage jugement de ceux qui se décident d'y aller. Le Liberia est une République Noire, il est gouverné par des hommes Noirs. Cette République offre aux Peuples Noirs du monde entier l'occasion exceptionnelle de reconstruire le prestige historique et national de la Race Noire. L'Association est soucieuse de voir profiter de cette occasion d'en devenir citoyens de la République de Libération, les membres généralement quelconque de notre Race, mais particulièrement les unités de L'Association Universelle pour l'Avancement de la Race Noire. L'Abyssinie offre également une occasion exceptionnelle et un accueil très favorable aux membres de la Universal Negro Improvement Association qui desirent aider ce pays historique dans son évolution économique. Jusqu'ici les plans pour la colonisation de ce dernier pays sont toujours à l'étude. En ce moment nous demandons des hommes, des hommes capable, des hommes bien disposés d'aller à Libération et développer les ressources naturelles de ce pays. L'Association compte dépenser plusieurs millions de dollars pendant les années 1924-1925 pour parfaire ses plans de colonisation en ce qui concerne le Liberia et son développement économique. Nous tenons pour bon qu'avec la coopération effective de tous nos membres nous pourrons beaucoup pour réaliser les bonnes fins que nous nous sommes proposées, et par ce moyen démonstrer la capacité du Négre pour se développer et se perfectionner quand l'occasion se présente. L'opportunité de reconstruire notre propre pays sous les garanties d'une paix permanente et durable est donnée au Négres; c'est une occasion exceptionnelle pour la Race. Dans les siècles qui se sont écoulés, nous avons pris part, comme Race, dans la construction des autres nations, et sommes toute qu'avons nous récolté en retour de nos peines et de notre servitude? En retour, nous avons été maltraités, malmenés, et en dernier ressort nous avons été affreusement assassinés. En ce qui a trait à Liberia, le cas diffère; l'occasion est donnée aux membres de la 'Race de coordonnner ses forces industrielles financières et autres pour la construction d'un pays neuf que nous pouvons appeler le notre. L'Afrique est le séjour de la Race Noire et le Liberia est le port ouvert qui nous donne l'entrée à la Mère-Patrie de la Race. Comme les anglais ont travaillés pour le développement de la Grande Bretagne; à l'instar des américains qui ont tant peinés pour développer la grande République Etoilée; de la même façon les 400.000.000 de Négres repandus sur la surface du globe doivent travailler pour la construction et le développement de la République de Liberia. Faison y nos demeures respectives. Garantissons à nos enfants et aux générations futures la protection d'une nation essentiellement négre, une nation à nous appartenant. Chacun peut aider pour la mise en œuvre de notre beau programme en faveur d'une République africaine bien organisée et bien développée. J'ai l'honneur, avec mes meilleurs souhaites, détre. Votre dévoué Serviteur. MARCUS GARVEY. LA PETITION DE L'AMERIQUE NOIRE La pétition que nous venons de présenter à la Société des Nations au nom de l'Association Universelle pour l'Avancement de la Race Noire est fort mal coinue en Europe. Je pourrais même dire que le public européen l'ignore totalement. Elle a cependant son importance, puisqu'elle fut signee ou approuvée par les six millions de noirs qui composent notre association. On sait que les anciennes colonies allemandes sont déjà sous mandat définitif de certaines puissances. La Société des Nations seule pourra toutefois décider de leur sort définitif. Leur attribution arbitraire à telle ou telle nation est une source certaine de conflicts. Voici une première raison pour que l'écho que nous apportons à Genève soit entendu. Notre pétition réclame en effet l'Autohomme-complete de ces colonies avec premission pour notre Association d'y envoyer des honnies prêts à assurer leur développement intellectuel, moral et économique. Nous n'avons aucune arrière-enseignement. Nous ne faisons pas de politique. Nous voulons simplement que les Alliés se souviennent de leurs promesses. Notre pétition demande que le principe wilsonien du droit des peuples de choisir leur gouvernement soit appliqué à la Race Noire. Ce principe a déjà trouvé sa réalisation en Pologne, en Tchécoslovaquie, en Hongrie, en Esthonie, en Lithuania, en Lettonie et en Albantie. Les sollicitations de ces pays ont été agréées sans distinction du camp, ocupés arx au cours des hostilités. Quant à nous, qui avons fait de tout coeur des sacrifices en hommes et en argent n'avons été l'objet d'aucune considération de la part des Alliés, après la Victoire. Partout notre situation reste la même. Haiti, la Petite République noire, a été envahie sans raison par la Grande République américaine. Elle reste place sous son protecteur, bien qu'elle soit membre fondateur de la S. D. N. et qu'elle ait sans cesse contre cette Occupation militaire de son territoire envali si déclaration de guerre. Les pays africains ont changé de maitres, semblables en cela à des marchelisseuses. Cet fut une sorte de traité en gros. Il fallait une protestation. Notre Association à la suite du Congrès Mondial de la Race Noire pit la révolution d'envoyer sa position à Genève. Toutes nos délances y sont inscrites avec conscience et fermeté. Aus-i malgré les intrigues et les propagades hostiles, il fandra bien que notre voix soit un jour entendue. Onatre cent milde des frères ou cie mobilisées aux États-Unis pour aller défendre la cause du Droit et de la Démocratie. Us ont combatt pour des principes qu'en refuse d'appliquer au jourd'hui à leur race! Ceci est inadmissible et non structuré. Mais nous ne désespérons pas, et nous pétition présentée au Secrétariat de Genève par S. A. le prince Arfa Ed. Doulwah a été distribué à tous les délégués. Nous avons consigné d'avoir accompli ainsi une ouverture de Justice et d'Humanité. Nous voulons croire que les représentants de la France se laissent toucher par elle, et qu'ils nous aideront à affermir en face de l'Univers nos droits impréscriptibles, impériens et sacrés.

Nos lecteurs trouveront d'autre part la proclamation de notre ami Gouchard' quij a le grand mérite d'affirmer tres nettement nos idées contre Diagne, l'homme néfaste et à double visage capable de toutes les trahisons envers ses frères de race pour le grand profit des exploiteurs et du sieu en particulier, nous augurons qu'ils sauront faire leur devoir le 11 mai et débarrasser la colonie de l'ex- douanier arriviste.

Il vous appartient donc de bien réféchir et de ne pas vous laisser entrainer ni par les basses questions de couleur, ni par des promesses fallacieuses et jamais tenues. La question de couleur au Sénégal n'existe plus et ne peut être remise en jeu même, pour une question electorale: il n'y a plus, depuis la Grande Guerre, que des citoyens qui ont fait leur devoir, dans des postes différents, pour sauver la Mère-Patrie et qui sont tous égaux devant la loi, le jour du scrutin. Mais si, sur ce terrain, noirs et blancs ont les mémes droits, ils ont aussi un mémé devoir, celui de marcher la main dans la main dans dans l'intérêt de votre vieille colonie africaine pour la reindre chaque jour plus forte et plus belle en mettant à l'écart ceux qui n'y recherchent que des bénéfices immédiats au détriment du cultivateur indigene, du salarié et du petit commerce, pour édifier des fortunes scandaleses dont aucune parcelle n'a jamais été utilisée, en retour, au mieux-être général. Or, ce mieux-être serait assuré le jour où, au Sénégal, nous verrions entre autres: L'instruction primaire obligatoire pour tous; L'assistance médicale plus largement accordée; Une maison de secours et une école professionnelle d'agriculture spéciale pour fes enfants métis abandonnes; L'attribution et la répartition de la terre avec plus les droits et obligations de notre code métropolitain; La collaboration étrie de L'indigène et du petit commerçant; La participation loyale et sincère des cityens'seignalais et métropoli- DO NOT FORGET The First Annual Military and Fail Dress Ball That Will Be Grown by THE AFRICAN ROYAL GUARDS at NEW STAR CASINO 107th Street and Lexington Ave. THIRD SDAY NIGHT, JUNE 5, 1924 Music by the Famous Trompo orchestra tains aux choses publiques, dans les groupements clus de la colonie; L'accueil largement ouvert aux en- fants du pays à tous les employés subalternes de L'Administration et la facilité pour l'élite d'être admis- né aux postes les plus éléves; L'emploi de commerce assure d'un gain recréminateur en pro- portion des bénéfices qu'il procure à ses chefs, sans parler de la retrait indispensable à ses vieux jours, ainsi que le larges secours aux veuve, et orphelis le cas écéléant.

GUADELOUPE Un attentat a la Guadeloupe Ou télégraphie de la Basse-Terre, a la date de mercredi: La nuit dernière, vers une heure du matin, une honne a éclaté dans l'hôtel du gouvernement de la Guadelope, à proximité du cabinet du gouverneur, M. Jocelyn Robert, ne causant heureusement que des dégats-materiels. Cet attentat, qui semble de nature purement politique, avait été soigneusement préparé. Le fil téléphonique reliant l'hôtel à la Basse-Terre avait relié coupé afin d'empecher toute communication rapide avec la gendarmerie. Malgreé son nom et ses prénom bien français, M. Jean-Joseph Adam est Haitien. Né à Port-au-Prince en Haiti, où il achève ses études, il quitta bientôt les Antilles, pour voyager. Il visita tour à tour les Etats-Unis d'Amérique, et le Mexique, confrontant ainsi toutes les civilisations du Nouveau-Continent. A Tuskegee, à Alabama, il s'arreta afin d'étudier une autre civilisation toujours grandissante: celle de sa race. Le système d'enseignement pratique inaugure dans des deux villes par le grand patriarche de la Race Noire Booker T. Washington le passionna. Ces deux, Universités où l'on chercherait en vain, un professeur ou un clève blanc, n'ont rien en aviver à notre Sorbonne, à Oxford, et à Harvard. L'hostilité nord-anéricaine se calme. Bientôt nous pouvons connaître les immenses progrès pédagogiques réalisés par ces deux foyers d'éducation. Labas, ce ne sont pas les boxeurs qui viennent au secours des laboratoires—O Siki—Et toute l'humiliation est pour nous. Ensuite, M. J.-J. Adam enseigna les langues vivantes dans l'Onest. C'est la qu'il fut élu Président d'une des nombreuses sections de l'Association Universelle pour l'Avancement de la Race-Noire. Bientôt, il fut délegué au Congrès Mondial qui s'égea à New York en 1922. Congrès présidé par Marcus Garvey, noble figure d'après des désintérésse, et lafonce. L'un ne va pas sans l'autre. Le déniement systématique rencontré par celui-ci en Amérique en en Europe, n'est rien à côté de l'autorité formidable qu'il exerce sur les quinze millions de noirs américains. La cause triomphe à un tel point qui surgi une huira à cœur offert à Genève par la Société des Nations. Cest M. J.-J. Adam qui Loccupe, Délegé permanent à Genève et représentant de L'Association à Paris, il vient de presenter à la S. D. N. une petition qu'il se charge de developper devant nos lecteurs avecant de Foi et de Logique qu'il fait devant les dégugues des plus grandes puissances mondiales. Navier De Treilles. D'un pays lointain La France recevra bienmt un prince exotique, le ras Taffari, regerit d'Ethiopie. C'est, pour les Français, un pliable toujours nonveu que celui d'Acaciaillir un monatique; non qu'ils soient "affamés", comme jadis, de voir un roi, mais sans douce parue que leur sévence republiqueine les portes à mourner qu'ils n'ont renie anime des éligantes traditions de leur histoire. Dane, le ras Taffari se promène prochainement dans notre capitale. Contemplons à notre tour le pays fabulieux qui nous l'autoie. Les Ethiopiens serait, etymologiquement du moins, les hommes aïribant regard. Les Greeks direct d'aux qu'ils cultivaient la justice et qu'ils entretenaient un commerce familier avec les dieux. Mais les Greeks direct encore - car ils aïribient, comme nous, à contre-dire et àarlier leurs reveries - que l'Ethiopie collait le pays des monstres et des mutilés, qu'on y remontrait des hommes sans tête et des animemobiles par un torse humain. Les marchands alexandriens rapportaient ainsi d'insenses témoignages sur une contre-tee dont ils n'avient pu probablement que fouler les rivages. Car l'Etriopie d'dressé, ses montagnes, comme des forteses et imprenables, entre Nil et mer Rouge, et les voyageurs ont toujours eu containe de tenir pour effroyable ou magnifique ce qu'ils ne leur est donné de considérer que de loin. Ce pays escarpé fut egyptien. Le prêté d'Amon le gouvernement. Sa cité principale, Napata, fut ravagée par les armées romaines, à l'age où regnait la reine Candace, dont les poetes devraient bien, à défaut des archéologues, imaginer la vie coupable et voluptueuse. Cette souveraine au doux nom vit se ternir sa glorie peu d'annés avant qu'apparait Jésus dans la divine étable. Quelque dix siècles plus tard, une juive, Esther, mais qui se nommait peut-être Judith, joua un rôle belliqueux dans la patrie des hommes au regard brilant. La grâce des femmes hante à loisir les ments éthiopiens. Ne fut-ce pas des amours de Salomon et de la reine. de Saba que naquit le premier Ménélik? Les Ethiopinnes jouissaient encore naguere de privièges amoureux qui ne s'accordent que malaisement avec notre morale, mais qui satisfont agréablement notre fout de la romanesque et libertine fantaisie. Sur les flans d'un autre massif montagneux, le Hogar, en plein désert africain, nos explorateurs ont découvert à la femme touaègue un chame à peu près semblable. Cependant, le christianisme égyp. tion vint autemfois charger, sinon, les murs innocens et fibres de ce pau- pie, du mouss les rires de ses ordromonies. Les Portugais, vers la quinzeïne stèle, voulurent lui insulquer la foi catholique. Il s'ensnivit des battilles et des intrigues qui du- rent longtemps. Les Ethiopiens, qui ne sont point encore orthodoxes, pratiquent une religion ornée ob se retrouvent des vestiges des primi- tives Eglises chrétiennes. Ce sont du reste de bonnes genis, cultivateurs et pasteurs, et, aussi, voluntiers soldats. Leur litterature religieuse est d'une richesse complique, et compliqué, et leurs locaux sont si attachés à la lettre des Livres, qu'ils en oublient, dit-on, assez sou- vent l'esprit. Drapés dans leurs vêtements souples, les montagnards ethiopiens ont l'allure qui pait à notre suriosity occidentale. Mais des chemiens de nirs dans l'intelligence des hommes fer sillonent à présent leur pays mouvementé, et ce que nous appelons la civilisation ne leur est point inconnu. Les Français ont entrepris la-bas des travaux dont l'utilité n'est contestée ni par le gouvernement ni par le peuple ethiopien. La paix regres sur cette vicille terre que les dieux aimaient jadis à visitor et qui y ont laissé d'heureux souve-et dans l'homme des femmes. AFRIQUE OCCIDENTALE FRANCAISE. L'organisation de la production coloniale (Le Temps.) On sait que la France dépense à l'heure actuelle un milliard et demi chaque année pour approvisionner en matières premières — de provenance étrangère—son industrie cotonier; celle-ci, au surplus, s trouve menacée dans son existence par le développement constant de l'industrie textile dans les pays produites, qui utilisent sur place un part de plus en plus important de leur récolte. LAfrique occidentale française, sur laquelle l'opinion publique fonde à juste titre de grandes esperances, a apporté encore à la metropole qu'il concours à peu près inexistant en ce qui concerne son approvisionnement en coton. Dans ce groupe de colonies, les indigens ce cultivent guide le préexistence textile que dans la limite de leurs besoins et les exportations de coton de LAfrique occidentale française en 1924 ne se sont elevées qu'à 1,200 tonnes. Le manque de méthode, de coordination et d'esprit de suite qui s'est manifesté dans les efforts fentés depuis un quart de siècle dans le domaine de l'expérimentation cotonier au Soudan, de même que l'absence de communications pratiques avec la mer, obstacle aujourd'hui en partie supprimé par suite de l'achèvement du Thiès-Kayes, ont été jusqu'à ce jour les gues principales de la mediocrité et de la stagnation de la production du coton dans Thinterland soudanais. M. Carde, gonçonne général de LAfrique occidentale française, s'est attachée, des son arrivée à Dakar, à donner au problème de la production cotonier les solutions pratiques qui semblaient décorer des études deja entreprise-et des enseignements résultat de l'expérience des ving-ting demi derniers années. La première mesure que compte son programme est l'organisation du drainage commercial de la production neuelle, drainage qui ingera citera l'indigence à ceder une part plus grande de sa récolte et ouvrir des regions nouvelles à l'action du commerce européen. Cette organisation, qui comporte l'établissement de voies de communications, l'installation d'usines d'égrenage et la création par le commerce de centres d'achats, nouveaux réduisant pour l'agriculture le portage de sa récolte, determinera un accès en rapide des exportations. L'accès-sément de la production sera poursuit par l'emploiation du rendement de la culture en terre sèche du coton indigène au moyen de la sélection des semences et du perfertionnement des méthodes de culture. Des fermes cotomières, créées à cet effet dans les principaux centres producteurs, poursuitront en même temps les essais d'adaptation des espèces américaines que les établissements d'études auront prégalablement expérimentées. Ces mesures seront complétes par une action exercée sur L'indigène envie du développement de la production, action progressive, pressante et soutene des services administratifs et techniques qui arrachera peu à peu, sans contrainte. L'indigène à ses vielles contunes agricoles et Linitiera, pour son grand profit, aux concepts modernes, de la production intensive. Il est nettement établi à l'heure actuelle que l'irrigation est appelée à jouer en Afrique occidentale française un rôle prépondérant, et qu'appliquée à nos grandes vallées africaines elle déterminera un accroissement considérable du rendement de la culture du coton. M. Garde, continuant dans cette voie, le programme, tracé par on prédescense fait, procédé à d'aménagement de la lage de Nigre dans la zone préindustrielle la malle de ce grenouil financier prousse l'étude à pince auprès d'aménagement hybride dans la nigrière qui est appelé, continue delta du Nil, à devoir une tete privilégie pour la grande est irriguée. Toutefois, la développement de la culture économique y méure subordonnée à la sélection variées bien adaptée au climat aussi est-il prescrit au gouvernement du Soudan de compléter l'aménagement des stations expérimentales installées dans la valle du Nigre afin que les études qui y sont entraprises soient poursuivies activement. Il ne faut pas se dissimuler que ces projets ne pourront être réalisées qu'au prix d'un effort financier considérable. Mais il est utile qu'il soit procédé des maintenant à un examen approfondi de l'aménagement du delta nigérien qui, preparant l'avenir, rendra possible l'exécution immédiate des grands travaux de prise et d'adduction des eaux d'arrosage lorsqu'on disposera des ressources financières nécessaires. Les zones d'irrigation seront ensuite aménagées et mises en exploitation progressivement, daprès le développement plus ou moins rapide de la colonisation. Cette colonisation progressera d'ailleurs vraisemblablement très vite qu'le quand le pays soudaina disposera en-abondance de l'eau d'irrigation. Si, dans la mise en valeur des terres irigables, la part-prépondérante revient à la culture indigene, le rôle de la colonisation européenne demeurse important. Les grandes plantations cotonières européennes, tout-en concourant à accroître la production, constituent un précieux outil d'éducation professionnelle des indigences et contribuent à former l'indispensable noyau de la grande colonisation future. Ces exploitations sont d'ailleurs assurées de trouver au Soudan la main-docuvre d'elles besoin, et les instructions de M. Carde à ses lieutenants-gouvemeurs définissent d'une manière très nette l'aide que l'administration locale doit à la colonisation européenne dans le recruitement de ses travailleurs, ainsi que les garanties dues à ceux-ci par les exploitations. Dans ce caste programme figurent également les fibres autres que le coton et la laine. Pour cette dernière seron créés des offices de conditionnement qui procéderont à un classement des produits destinés à l'exportation. Un service local des textiles fonctionnant sous l'autorité du lieutenant-gouverneur misurera, groupera, coordonnera et orientera les efforts; une inspection générale du service des textiles et de l'hydraulique agricole aura pour rôle, en débors du contrôle des services, locaux et de l'exécution de travaux et de missions qui lui servent confiés, d'apporter aux services locaux l'assistance temporaire de conseillers techniques spécialisés. Telles sont les directives qui devront présider à l'oeuvre d'organisation de la production textile dans nos possessions de l'ouest africain, oeuvre considérable de longue haïne, dont les réalisations premières pourrent paraire peu importantes à l'opinion publique, mal renseignée encore sur les délais qui exige la mise en valeur effective de nos terres tropicales, mais qui nous ouvre, pour le moment où elle aura pu être menée à bién, de si belles perspectives d'avoir pour une partie importante de noir domaine colonial, en même temps, que d'allégement financier pour la métropole.

Sous le contrôle du capitaine Robin, Coupet est parti à 10 h. 44 et a atterter à 12 h. 33, ayant atteint l'altitude de 6,000 mètres environ. Le précédent record était detenu par Casale, depuis le leer juin 1923, à Buc, avec 4,900 mètres. Le barographe a été envoyé hier, aux fins de examen, au laboratoire des arts et métiers.

Blytheville, Ark. He Says Marcus Garvey Will Prevail in the End To the Editor of The Negro World: I have been a reader of The Negro World about two years and I will soon become a member of the U. N. I. A. to do as much good as I can in carrying out the program. In the two years I have found very much enlightenment for the black race and a great deal of criticism and stone-throwing at the wonderful Marcus Garvey, who has done so much to wake up the Negro people of the world, and I am sure, he will prevail over all his enemies. Mollie Bynum Prays For Redemption of Africa To the Editor of The Negro World: I am glad we have a leader, like Marcus Garvey. The only way we can hope to protect our boys and girls is by organizing them into units of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Do it now, before they begin to work. In jobs at starvation wages. I pray God for the redemption of Africa. MOLLIE BYNUM. Africa. MOELIE BY NORM. Blytheville, Ark. To the Editor of The Negro World: I am a subscriber to The Negro World. I think it just fine. I have learned more about our race since I have been reading it than I ever knew before. I am not a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but hope to be. But I am a wallisher. I do hope the association will put over its program. I enjoy reading those inspiring speeches at Liberty Hall, especially those of Hon. Marcus Garvey. I feel, too, that we need a home of our own, because we have been working for the other race so long, and it is time to start working for ourselves. I am a well wisher in Christ. LOUISA A. LOVE.

The Negro of this generation must realize his position as a negative striving to become a positive force. From close observation I see the unchanging Negro with sole intention to impede the progress of others; such Negroes will never realize the good that organizations like the U. N. I. A. have done and are doing. Although much water has swept under the bridges since the creation of this association, credit is due the farseeing founders who measured the present condition of the race in its relation to the future. FREDERICK CAMPBELL. New York, May 26. She Believes in Garveyism And the. Negro World To the Editor of The Negro World: Being a subscriber to The Negro World, one of the greatest newspapers on earth, although not a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we do believe in Garveyism. His teaching is what the Negroes of the South need. Although we may never reach the shores of Africa we pray that those who have started may keep on. We can't praise your paper enough and we are trying to get others in this community to become interested. In it, and what other Negroes are doing. We hope to become members, and we hope for your success. (Mrs.) Jimille L. Dennis. Bluesprings, Miss., May 26, 1924. West Indians Shot To Death in Cuba To the Editor of The Negro World: For the last couple of weeks we have been continually hearing of the "gaming" of members of our race. In a nearby "colonia" yesterday, Uriah George a native of St. Vincent, B.W.L. became the "game" of Pedro Corrales, native of Cuba and "Mayoral" of the colonias Carmen y Bellelas, de los senores Rivero y Frias. We understand that George was shot dead in a malicious manner, by Corrales, after some talking, in which George's rights seemed to be at stake with the latter. Corrales in a miscegenated Negro who hawks the Ethiopian blood in his veins. We hope that the government of which Uriah George was a subject may take the necessary interest in the matter so that the West Indians, who have had to travel to justify their existence, may feel somewhat safe in this country. LEONARD BRYAN. San German, Oriente, Cuba, May 21, 1924. Is the White Man's Religion Good Enough for Us? To the Editor of The Negro World: Christ and White Christianity? What connection is there between these two? The more I have studied this question, the more I am forced to the conclusion that the sole connecting link is a purely nominal one. Is this statement too sweeping and unwarranted? Let us see! First of all, we will ask ourselves, what is Christ? That is, what does Christ, the man, embody? In all the accounts of His life we are told that He stood for the highest nobility of thought and action. His was the greatest and finest manifestation of love for humanity that the world has ever seen. A love that consistently proved itself by unremitting words and deeds of help and kindness. He did not preach and NOT practice. His life was a constant illustration of His sublime ideals, the greatest and final proof of which was Calvary. Calvary, with its utter agony and grimony. Calvary, the Tragedy of the Ages! He was not eager to die—this normal, healthy, human being. He said His soul was sorrowful unto death. He erased out against the impending physical agony of the crucifixion. Witness his impassioned "Father, if Thou wilt, remove this cup from me." But convinced that His death would be for the betterment of humanity He added the sublime, "Nevertheless, not as I wilt, but as Thou wilt." Not less positive than His love for His fellow creatures was His hatred of all things mean and unjust—was His corrosive contempt for all things hypocritical. How He did despise hypocrites! His most caustic satire was directed against them. And were He on earth today, what an inexhaustible field would He find for it among those who are supposed to be exponents of His teachings. We have seen, at least sufficient for birth date our comparison, what is Christ. Now we will examine what is the White Man's Christianity. Instead of the helpful deeds of Christ, instead of that brotherly love, a love that was the very cornerstone of the very keystone of His life, we find seizure of other people's property; a right-handed introduction to the Bible with, at the same time, a left handed one to rum, vicious drugs and other immoralities. History: books prove this. We find Negro slavery; moderated nowadays to segregation, eniracism, Jim Crowism and many other injustices. We find, instead of the useful and lowly Christ, a triple-crowned Pope housed in imperial splendor. We find begemmed and throned cardinals; we find archbishops, bishops, archdeacons and the hundred and one other grades of the Christ of today. We find Roman, Greek and English Catholics; we find Protestantism with its numberless and antagonistic sects. Christ, Himself, told us "the kingdom of God is within you"; but the Ragnar hierarchy still thunders forth, "Ex cathedra no salutem"; which, translated freely, means "out of the Catholic faith there is no salvation." The various Protestant sects practically claim the same monopoly of salvation. Through all these claims and counter claims we hear Christ's scathing "Hypocrites, whited sepulchres, fools and blind," but we still prefer to be hoodwinked by such mummies as confessions, indulgences, masses, litanies, vain prayers and a host of other such palliatives. This is the white man's Christianity; And we Negroes seem to accept it unquestionably as fit for us. But is it Are we getting anywhere under its baleal influence? We are not. And the sooner Negroes realize that Christ and White Christianity are utterly dissimilar forces, the more rapid will we go forward in every branch of endeavor. And the sooner will we occupy the status of a great race and nation; a status, that, looking back to the imperial greatness that was once Africa's, tells us such a position is our rightful heritage.

N. I. A. DIVISIONS (Continued from page 8) spoke from a "white man's point of view" of the situation of the Negro. He advised his hearers not to look for some one else to achieve for them the things they could accomplish for themselves with organization. He also stated that the U. N. I. A. was the greatest organization in existence for Negroes, and he would give assistance to his program. The Silver Pick, Spade and Axe (working tool) of the Ethiopian Woodmen and Women Council were presented for ground breaking by Mr. L. Johnson, chief chief, who received some earth to sprinkle on our "Motherland Africa" as the return. Ground was broken with silver pick by Rev. F. Johnson, president of the Great Detroit division, and with silver apple by Mr. Jas. W. Williams, president of the Hammramek division Rev. F. Johnson, president, made a wonderful address on "Making Music Dissatisfied With Their Present Surrounding." Music was furnished by Detroit's Hyman U. N. L. A. Fund. The African, legions, Black Cross Nurses and Juveniles made wonderful display in line of march and ceremonies. The president of the Hammramek division thanked the various divisions for their hearty co-operation in the eforts of reviving the minds of Negroes, to the sense of their duty and the "Slugger" of the U. N. L. A., "Let's Put it Over." Meeting disbanded by the president ISAAC HARMS. Secretary CINCINNATI, OHIO On Sunday, May 15, 1921 the Chicago-nail division staged a monster parade.

N. I. A. PHOTO SHEET Each and every member of the Association should have a U. N. I. A. photo-sheet of the Hon. Marcus Garvey in his uniform of the Provisional President of Africa—the 1922 U. N. I.

All of these pictures are on one sheet suitable for framing—beautiful oval half-tone pictures on special paper. Address all orders to impress on the minds of Negroes than sense of duty. Owing to the inclemency of the weather we were doubtful if we would have a five day, but thanks to the Almighty we had a nine day, and the entire program was successful. Long before the parade the streets were crowded with all classes of people waiting for the great demonstration of the Cincinnati Division, No. 146, of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Negroes from all parts of Ohio were in line, such as Florence, Dayton, Columbus, College Hill and Walnut Hill. Rt. Hon. Wm. Ware, president of the Cincinnati division, led the parade in an automobile, accompanied by two commissioned officers, followed by many automobiles. Next came Lockland Goncert Band, followed by the African Legions, Motor Cow- Black Cross Nurses and their ambulance, which was under the command of Major Gillespie. Then came the Universal African Boy and Girl Scouts, under the command of the Executive Secretary. They were dressed in the regular Legion uniform—blue, shirt, black tie and small oversea cap in black. They were just ready for action. The girls were dressed in black skirts, middy blouses and white caps. To show the appreciation of the public for the appearance of the U. A. B. & G. Scouts, a large donation was thrown into the flag (which was carried by the girls) by the spectators as the parade was on its way to the Emery Auditorium. The choir came 'tled, led by a commissioned officer. The Y. M. C. A. band came next, followed by the members of the Cincinnati division and various neighboring divisions. The members carried banners with various slogans, such as "One God, One Aim and One Destiny"; "Vote as you are instructed"; "The Negro won the last World's War"; "The Negro is determined to have a homeland"; "We believe in the father of God and the brotherhood of man," and many others. The parade started at 1 o'clock p.m. at 3:30 George street and ended at the Emery Auditorium, where the greatest demonstration which was ever given in Cincinnati was to be given by the units of the Cincinnati disks. Surely, New York has nothing on Cincinnati. It is now I am convinced that Cincinnati division is the parent body of the West. When we were marching down the streets of Cincinnati, Ohio, on Sunday, May 15, we glanced down the line of march and said to each other: "Where are we?" Some said that we were in New York; others said "Oh, no, boy! we are right here in Cincinnati." So, New York, look out! Cincinnati is surpassing you. On arriving at the Auditorium there was about 3,000 people assembled there to hear the Rt. Hon. Marvin Garvey, President General of the association. These people were from Columbus, Dayton, Fiance and other neighboring suburbs. The meeting was opened up with the regular procession, which was composed of the different units, Legions, Black Cross Nurses, Motor Corps and the Universal African Boy and Girl Scouts. The choir was led by a commissioned officer, followed by Leont, Hayes, who led the executives. Coming up in the rear was the Rt. Hon. Marcus Garvey and the Right Hon. Wm. Ware, thanked by four commissioned officers of the Legions. After the regular procession there was a demonstration by the different units, which was heartily applauded, especially when the Unisexal African Boy and Girl Scouts gave their demonstration. "From Greenland's by Mountain" was then sung, followed by the prayer of the association by Prof. A. H. Maloney of Willowerforce University. A selection was then rendered by the choir. Among those seated on the rostrum A new discovery is said to have been made by a scientific study of Serbian mountain people who, scientists say, live longer than ever people. It is said this discovery will help people. It is said that the discovery will help all parts of the world and quickly restore manly strength, youthful vigor, grace and beauty that by neglect or abuse. Scientists prove that the secret of health and vigor lies in the internal glands and, if these glands are blocked, the health might live forever and aliment such as tired, worn-out feeling, weakness, nervousness, memory, premature senility, sorrowly neck, restlessness at night, pain, headache, depression, dependence, etc. should disappear. The difficulty encountered by the medical staff for the island's new discovery is simple: the island's new discovery is simple. were the Rt. Hon. Marcus Garvey, President General; Prof. A. H.
