TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES NEGROES GETTING TOGETHER EVERY- WHERE FOR SELF-IMPROVEMENT Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: Lest we forget, it is well that the Universal Negro Improvement Association emphasize and ring the changes that have come over us. We are now face to face with a tremendous, yet pleasant, proposition that we, as men, have undertaken to put over. Universally, we have decided to bend all of our energies and efforts in the direction of nation building, and now an opportunity presents itself for us to co-operatively help in not only building, but permanently establishing the undisputed sovereignty farms, from the work shops, from the classrooms, and from our commercial and industrial activities in other parts of the world to her hillsides and broad acres of undeveloped lands and to there establish those marts of industry that will help to change her economic condition and make her one of the standard commercial nations of the world. Will we do it? And the millions who make up the Universal Negro Improvement Association answer, "Yes, we shall." We shall do it because it is our duty—a duty for which we have been preparing ourselves in the western world for three hundred years. The experience and education that we have gained, even through the rigors of slavery, shall now be placed at the disposal of the one country in the world that offers the Negro the hope of real freedom, the practice of real liberty. The fathers who established the little Republic of Liberia on the western coast of Africa truly expressed themselves when they declared that "the love of liberty brought us here." Liberia has been free ever since her establishment; free to the movement of one's person. This beautiful history she has maintained up to the present, until she is able to extend her hands to the scattered sons and daughters of Africa and bid them welcome; welcome to her hospitable shores; welcome to her hearths and fire TO BUILD A NATION AMONG THEMSELVES LIBERIA INVITES ALL INDUSTRIOUS NEGROES TO COME HOME HELP DEVELOP THE COUNTRY INDUSTRIALLY AND COMMERCIALLY GET IN TOUCH WITH UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION sides; welcome back to the land of our fathers, and so we go with a determination to do our Answering the Call What Negro will not answer this call? The Universal Negro Improvement Association feels that as soon as our scattered race in America, West Indies, South and Central America become convinced of the fact that there is much to do in Liberia through and by our own initiative, and that there is every welcome to do it, then we shall indeed see a new day in the rise of scattered Ethiopia. Venture a Success We are now preparing on every hand to make the venture of Liberian colonization a success. We want ships, we want materials to make the venture a possibility. Every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and of the Negro race who is serious in the promotion of the aims and objects of the Association should now make every effort to do his and her best in financing the program for ships, more ships, and for the purchase of materials to enable our workmen when they get to Liberia to start that constructive work that must be done for the accommodation of all. Navigation and Trading Company The Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, Inc., again appeals, through the Universal Negro Improvement Association, for support to secure its ships. The corporation wants every Negro who is touched with a sense of duty to loan it the necessary amount of money needed for capitalization. Those who can loan $1,000 for five years should now do it, and those who cannot loan more than $500, $400, $300, $200 or $100 for the same period of time should not delay in so doing, because the capital is now needed to push along the project of ships and more ships. The corporation is borrowing these loans from each and every one who can afford to subscribe for the periods of five --- or ten years, bearing an annual interest of 5%. This money is to be used for the conduct of the corporation's business in trade between Liberia, America, West Indies, South and Central America. It is expected that everybody will help in this direction, and as we unitedly do our part through the promotion of the plans of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, we shall at the same time prepare ourselves for the forthcoming International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, at which we are to discuss the most important program ever submitted to the race. Getting Together We are going to get together in 1924 more than ever. We are going to register a change that the world shall never forget in the rise of our once great and scattered ancient glory. Let every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association redouble his and her energy in fostering the work of the organization. Let everybody get behind the Convention Fund and push it along, as well as help the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. We are going to do this. We must do this if we are going to carry the program as it is and bring success to ourselves. We are all looking homeward, and sooner or later we will get there, and then in the days to come we shall sing our songs of gladness and chant our hymns of praise under that vine and fig tree of our own, and send up our thanks to the great King who inspired the prophecy that "Princes shall come out of Egypt and Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands." We are stretching forth our hands now industrially, educationally, socially, commercially, politically and religiously. Trusting we will all keep the faith until the day of success comes, with very best wishes, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant. MARCUS GARVEY. President-General. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. NEW YORK. June 17, 1924. P. S. - All members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who are collecting for the Convention Fund are asked to make their weekly reports to the Secretary-General's office, Universal Negro Improvement Association, 56 West 135th Street, New York City. Send in immediately all that you have collected for acknowledgment in The Negro World. Chapters and Divisions are reminded to make every effort to become financial, so as to secure a standing at the next convention. Let everybody co-operate and do the best possible. M. G. Shall! What is blink? It is the instrument that the worldly wise uses to confound those who have the temerity (?) to reuse themselves from a condition of stupor to cry "Halt" to the tactics of the would-be oppressor. In the modern operand of every bully the would persecute a certain enforced condition, whether moral or physical. Its ramifications are ubiquitous. You find it in the "Cracker" who钻进 from the oracle that the Negro is inferior, that he has no rights the white man is bound to respect, grows, lives and dies practicing his self-deception. You find it in the Negro, who, preening himself on a false assumption of superiority, would convince his fellows that to oppose his will and his inclinations is to court disaster dire. Bluff is a powerful instrument, no que can gainay, but its efficacy, unfortunately for the agent, depends entirely on somebody's stupidity. And all men are not stupid. There are some men alas, who can x-ray another's design. And no the "Cracker" will fall. So will he, Negro or Nordic, who seeks to make capital out of the supposed stupidity of his fellows. What, black men, must do, if they must climb, is call the other fellows' bluff. When, convinced you are on the right path, you are dared to tread that path, reach down and unearth a stone to dare the blinderer to say you may. If your personal liberty is amused, and liberty is man's dearest possession, believe that you are free and act as a free man. A friend of the writer recently paid a visit to some relatives in Merigold, Mississippi, Mississippi, one of these United States, the home of the brave and the land of the free. The day after his arrival in the little town, at noon time, he was sitting on the verandah, smoking a cigarette, in shirt sleeves, taking in the scene. There were white men and Negroes going to and from work, and the conversation indulged in by the various knots of working men, as they passed by, was furnishing him with an interesting sidelight on the Negro problem as it protrudes in this enlightened country. Deep in thought, "he was suddenly jarred by a raucous voice. "Say, nigger, what are you up to?" (or something to that effect), a white man thus yelled at him from the roadside. Mr. nigger was disgusted, so he said. He recognized that. "You should be at work. Get busy. One of them Northern niggers. I spose. We don't train our niggers like that this way." The young man addressed, as much gentleman as his interlocutor was savage, heading the advice of his host to "come inside," rose from his chair and went into the house. The "Cracker" passed on, muttering an oath. --- Therein lay the rub. The white bully, bluffer, rather, went on his way chuckling to himself, rejoicing that he had "scared a nigger." The next day, exulting in his conquest, he would be "scaring other niggers," framing a constitution for Mississippi. The Negro in question should have stood his ground. As it happened, he had the cutest automatic in his hip pocket. Were any violence attempted he could have defended himself and right manfully, but he chose to run, thereby giving comfort to the enemy. In the army they riddle with bullets all those who give comfort to the enemy. And they are right. But, had he stood his ground, the chances are that it would have been the "Cracker" who would have run. Yes, he would have run. My experience is that the bully and the bluffer have no use for "fireworks." There is illimitable courage in a team of "Crackers" when the goal is ONE Negro. But one Negro, one "Cracker," Page the "Cracker." They say, those who feel the end justifies the means, that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is in alliance with the Ku Klux Klan. Now, if perchance, there is a Negro on the face of the earth who does not know what the U. N. L. A. and the Ku Klux Klan respectively symbolize, he should be dead. But this is you-safed so that he may advance an argument for clinging to life. The Universal Negro Improvement Association believes God created all men equal; that God is not white, but a spirit, that if by any chance He is possessed of color, then He is possessed of all the colors of the rainbow—that He is black, brown, yellow, white, and so on; that Negroes stuiltly themselves when they hang pictures in their homes of a white Jesus and white angela and black devija; that black men are capable of doing whatever other men can do. The Ku Klux Klan holds to the belief that the Deity is white; that black is the color of Satan and his imp; that black men were made to be heirs of woods and drawers of water; that they are fundamentally inferior to the white race; that between whites and blacks there is an eternal, fundamental and inescapable difference, an President Harding dogmatised some time ago at Birmingham, Alabama, to please white "crackers"; that the Negro has no rights which the white man should respect. Between the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Ku Klux Klan is a great ruined fixed. Yet THE MAYOR OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK Top (left to right)—Mr. Salomao, Mr. Herculano Pimentel, Sir J.

WILLIAM WARE ON THE VALUE OF THE BALLOT The New Negro Is Alive to His Own Interests and Will Vote for Men and Measures Helpful to Him —Best Weapon CINCINNATI, June 12.—Commenting on the address delivered by President Coolidge at Howard University, at which it was said that the American Negro's progress was one of the "marvels of the world," William Ware, president of Division No. 146, U. N. L. A., of Cincinnati, said that the Negro's further advancement was a matter of votes, and that the new Negro would move ahead even faster and farther than in the past solely by his collective voting power. "The President of the United States," said Mr. Ware, "has at last taken notice of a fact that other students of current events have been observing for a very long time, and that is the awakened mental state of the new Negro. He does not mention it in the commencement address he delivered at Howard University, but what he meant was that the strength and courage of the modern Negro grew out of the realization that he could move upward by employing the collective voting force of the race, as against the older methods of some years back, when his organized forces, scattered all over the country, were compelled to vote individually, or as the ward-boss instructed him. "What is it that the white man fears in the awakened Negro more than bullets or open warfare? It is the Negro's vote. It is the apprehension that all exploiting races feel when they realize that the objects of their oppression have awakened to the meaning of true liberty, real democracy. "The new Negro's education began when he learned that his vote was his most prized possession. He began to climb when he found that by his vote alone could he control his destiny, his future, his life. His real freedom commenced with the knowledge that it is the vote of the combined Negro forces that would make the white rulers respect him." "The day of the political trickster has gone, never more to return, thank heaven. The new Negro knows the power he wields in the ballot and that by giving away that power to any person or group of persons he gives away his freedom, his self-respect and all hopes for a better life on this earth. "As evidence of the new understanding achieved by the race, let it be known that millions of Negroes will never again cast their votes for anyone or anything except that it profit not only themselves, but the race as a (Continued on page 5) some tell us that the U. N. I. A. is pro-Ku Klux; that Garvey is a Kluxer. It is to laugh. What Garvey has been trying and is trying to tell the world is that Ku Klux is a spirit, not an attitude. When, travelling in the street-car or in the subway, a white man or woman prefers to strap-hang rather than to occupy the empty seat beside you, a Negro, he or she is a Kluxer. When, because you speak correct English, or because your tie reposes neatly between your collar, the white man is demonstrative in his admiration, be sure he is a Kluxer, and there are as many members of the Ku Klux Klan, in spirit, in England, in France and in Germany as in America. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1984 NOW HAVE TWO MEMBERS OF NATIONAL COMMITTEE Johnson, of Georgia, and Howard, of Mississippi, Win Out—Porto Ricans Defeat Americans as Delegates CLEVELAND, June 10.—Affirming the action of the National Committee, the Credentials Committee voted overwhelmingly, today to seat the delegation from Georgia, headed by Henry Lincoln Johnson, Negro National Committeeman, and that from Mississippi under Perry W. Howard, a Negro Assistant United States Attorney General. Immediately after the Mississippi decision the delegation from that State formally ratified the election of Howard as National Committeeman to succeed M. J. Mulvihill of Vickaburg, whose delegation lost its fight. The Georgia and Mississippi contests were the major ones appealed to the Credentials Committee, and after they had been disposed of the committee went into night sessions to clean up the appeals in contests from Texas, the District of Columbia and the 10th Tennessee District. Sciplo A. Jones abandoned his appeal from the decision of the National Committee in seating the delegates at large from Arkansas under National Committeeman H. L. Remmel. The victories gained by Johnson and Howard, who argued their own cases, were greeted by wild cheering on the part of their delegations, as well as many Negro spectators. The failure of M. J. Mulvihill to lend his support to a written agreement entered into with the Howard faction for a consolidation of the contending Republican forces in Mississippi proved the turning point in that contest. As was the case before the National Committee, a letter written by President Harding shortly before his death, was a deciding factor in the decision in the Georgia case. In the letter to C. Bascom Slemp, one of the members of the National Committee commissioned to reorganize the party in Georgia, President Harding said he had made a "blinder" in recognizing J. L. Phillips as head of the organization in Georgia. In the Texas case, the committee unanimously approved the action of the National Committee in seating the delegation under National Committeeman Creager over that headed by E. H. R. Green, son of the late Herty Green. Robert H. Todd of San Juan, Porto Rico, oldest member in point of service on the Republican National Committee, and E. Mont Kelly of Kansas City, former Governor of the island, were unseated as delegates to the National Convention tonight by the Credentials Committee, Juan Soto and Raven Mados, who arrived today from Porto Rico, were seated in their place. Soto was elected as National Committeeman to succeed Todd, whose service has extended over more than twenty years. South Africa May Secede If Smuts Is Beaten From The New York World LONDON. June 14.—The recession of South Africa from the British Empire, with possibilities of serious trouble, will become an immediate political issue if events turn out as now indicated by reports concerning the general elections to be held in South Africa on Tuesday. It seems likely that Gen. Smutta, who is supported by the whole English press, will be beaten by a coalition of Dutch nationalists and laborers. The hope of the loyalists is that if Smutta Jones, the victorious Boers and labor leaders will quarrel before the recession movement gets under way. DEADLY SEED SOWN BY WHITE PROPAGANDISTS Inferiority Complex Overworked and Bible Teachings Twisted to Rivet Their Rule and Fill Their Pockets To the Editor of The Negro World: If I were asked to name the factor I think most responsible for the failure of a more rapid Negro progress, I would unhastily say ouritoo willingness to be influenced by designing propaganda, untiringly disseminated among us by white intelligence. If you will permit me I will give a few examples of what this insidious agency can do and has done. Since the dawn of nation, perhaps even in the evolutionary family and tribal state of primitive man, propaganda has proved a powerful instrument in the gaining of certain objectives. Imperial Home, to give you but one of the many uses she made of it, has succeeded, to an astonishing degree by its potency, in blasting the reputation of the Huns and the Vandals, two of her conquerers. To this day, when we wish to designate some deed as being particularly atrocious we refer to it as "an act of vandalsm," when a careful and unprejudiced study of ancient history far more justifiably stamps it "an act of Romanism." Rome's "Vandalism" Did not Rome, the unrivalled butcher among the nations, utterly and without warrant destroy Carthage, even to the plowing of her ruins, in that most appalling of all sieges (146 B. C.)? And savony-three years later, when the slaves, many of whom were the vaunted Anklo-Saxona, driven to desperation by the most abominable cruelties, rose, under the leadership of Spartacus, a gladiator, did not Rome make of the Appian Way a veritable "vib dolorosa" by lining it with crosses on which writhled in frightful agony the crucified bodies of 6,000 of the captured insurgents? And yet, in spite of all these revolting perceptions, the world in general believes the fallacious Roman accounts of wholesale vandal atrocities. As a matter of fact, the sorry oppressed subject peoples of that nation that delighted and reviled in heinous practices, such as gladiatorial combats, were but top-tier to escape, convinced, as they were, that no other power could be worse, from under the life-crushing heel of the tyrant. Reliable authority computes that during her world domination Rome crucified hundreds of thousands of unfortunate victims, for the perpetration of which nauseating infamies she offers the filthiest of excuses. The Superiority Myth Another illustration of the effectiveness of propaganda is the Negro inferiority myth. Emanating from the ancient Hebrews, this particularly vicious specimen has done, our race incalculable harm. For its invention they offer, in gist, the following ridiculous reason: A certain worthy among them, by name Ham, coming on a certain occasion upon his old soak of a father doing an impromptu vaudeville act in a state of nudity, during one of his fits of drunkenness; and believing more struck by the comical than the undignified aspect of the performance indulged in an immoderate and somewhat inappropriate fit of laughter. Whereupon, for this vigorous exercise of his risible muscles, he and his descendants, supposed to be Negroes, were subjected to an eternal curse by their god, who, to say the least, must have had a queer (Continued on page 3) BISHOP GREGG SORT OF MAN FOR AFRICA He Is Familiar With the People and Languages of the Country and Dedicated to the Work Your splendid editorial of June 4 entitled: "An Educated African Ministry Needed," opines the transfer of Bishop W. T. Vernon from the South African field. And, yet, you were so very gracious in your remarks regarding his successor, Bishop J. A. Gregg, the president (the still president) of Wilberforce University. You say, "We have faith to believe that Bishop Gregg will make a good success of his Work in South Africa." That faith is shared by all who know Bishop Gregg. But let me remind you, Mr. Editor, that Bishop Gregg, before becoming a bishop, did spend several years in South Africa. He is thoroughly conversant with conditions there. He can speak the two dominant languages of the natives there, which carries with it ability to exchange thoughts with natives who speak several of the dialects. I do not think that Bishop Vernon can boast that preparation. He has done a great work, indeed, but I am satisfied that Bishop Gregg goes to the task relinquished by Bishop Vernon with a preparation far superior to that now possessed by the latter, gained by him during several years of effective labors there. A delegation of native African ministers came all the way from South Africa to Louisville to pray the General Conference to give them Dr Gregg for their bishop. They know his work. They know his preparation. They know the man. Bishop Gregg, like Bishop Sampson Brooks, is likely to stay for years to accomplish a definite task in the field of his choice. Bishop Gregg could have been sent elsewhere, but he preferred to be sent to labor in South Africa, a land in which he had spent many years as pastor, school principal, manager of large church holdings and presiding elder. Africa is no new field to Dr. Gregg Fraternally yours. A. H. MALONEY. Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio, June 12. Welfare Co-ordination In New York City The Social Workers' Association, including representatives of the various welfare agencies in New York that work among Negro people, met at Grace Congregational Church, 308 West 130th street, Thursday evening, June 5, 1924. Dinner was served by the Harlem Community Center. Miss Marie J. Bell, executive secretary. An address on the "Father Co-ordination of Welfare Work in New York City" was given by Mr. George A. Hecht, editor of "Better Times." Mr. Hecht outlined the various plans submitted at the "Better Times" dinner at the Hotel Pennsylvania for co-ordinating the 2,000 or more social agencies in New York. A three-reel film on the "Menace of Tuberculosis" was also shown. James H. Hubert, president of the association, presided.

LAW OF MIGHT AND LAWLESS PUBLIC OPINION RAMPANT IN PIEDMONT, CALIFORNIA Mob and City Council Unite to Deprive Sydney Dearing, a Prosperous Negro, of His Home in Fashionable Residential Section—Major Loving's Property Also Menaced Mr. Arthur S. Gray, of Oakland, Cal., has sent us a large batch of newspaper clippings, bearing on the efforts to drive Sydney Dearing, a prosperous Negro, out of his home in the fashionable section of Piedmont. Mob threats and mob.violence, with two bomb attempts, failed to move Mr. Dearing. The city council then stepped in and condemned his property for public uses. Thus, in one of the most enlightened communities on the Pacific Coast, the city authorities join hands with mobocratic public opinion to create a lawless condition of terror and to rob a Negro of his property by condemnation proceedings. The Negro World is also advised that Negro domestics in Piedmont are being discharged on account of the property wrangle and it is rumored that white women are signing resolutions to refuse employment to all negro women "because of the defiant racial attitude." The Oakland edition of the San Francisco Examiner of June 6 has the following to say about the matter: cratic East Bay City of Sydney Deurnin, its only negro resident, were taken by the Pledmont city council last night. By unantimously adopting a resolution to condemn Dearling's property at 67 Wildwood avenue under the right of eminent domain, and run a street through it, Mayor Oliver Ellaworth and members of the Pledmont city council said, last night, that the perplexing negro resident problem had been solved. Under the terms of the resolution, Dearing's beautiful home, in one of Piedmont's most exclusive residence sections, is to be razed to make room for an extension of Fairview avenue through to Wildwood avenue. Thirty Seek Street Measures, which residents of Piedmont declare to be both expeditions and SOUTH AFRICA AS A BLACK NATION When? Fifty Years Hence —British Judge Figures Native Population Will Then Be 20,000,000 to to 3,500,000 Whites WHITES HAVE NO POLICY From the Cape Argus GRAHAM STOWN, Saturday. Speaking at Bathurst Show, Sir Thomas Graham referred to the native question in the course of a striking address. "Have you ever asked yourself," he said, "what this South African nation is going to be like if we proceed on our present lines of development? There are some statistics which are so very important that I should like to force them upon your attention. "A couple of years ago a commission was appointed to deal with industrial questions, and government experts made a forecast of the population of South Africa in fifty years' time. "The European population, at our present rate of progress, will be 3,500,000, and the native population nearly twenty millions. "Let those figures burn into your minds. That is the great burning question of today. "How are we going to increase the while population of this country?" whole population of this country? "If we do not increase it by importing settlers of the very best type from all parts of the world, we shall establish a nation, but it will be a black nation, and not a white one." "Our native policy, such as it is, is a matter for politicians, and not a matter for a judge, but have we any native policy?" "The other day a great man came to interview me, and he asked the what our native policy was. I told him that if he went down to Kogle Beach and saw a lot of children playing with sand castles he would realize our native policy—little barriers to keep the sea out, and when the sea advances down come the barriers and you retreat a few yards inland and erect further barriers. That is our native policy." Continuing, Sir Thomas observed that an enormous native increase was inevitable. The native, quite rightly, was protected by all kinds of laws. He was not able to squander his substance. He could not get rid of his land without the corset of the government. He was not allowed to indulge in intoxicating liquors, and he was allowed to have as many wives as he pleased. The white moth could squander his substance in any way he liked, and he was limited to one wife. (Laughter.) It was no use biping these facts. We had to look at things as they (Continued on page 5) BUSINESS SCHOOL GRADUATION The eighth commencement of the Braithwaite Shorthand and Business School will take place on Thursday evening, June 26, at St. Mark's Hall, when ten graduates who have com- pleted business courses will be awarded diplomas.

The exercises will be followed by a dance. --- effectual to rid the exclusive and artelo- Action by the Pledmont city council was taken last night in response to a petition signed by thirty property owners. The resolution directs City Attorney Girard Richardson to proceed at once with the necessary legal steps for the acquirement of the wealthy negro's property for city purposes. For weeks Dearing has been the center of a storm of indignation. Upon one occasion more than 500 Pledmont citizens gathered in front of his newly acquired Wildwood avenue home and served notice that he must quit the city. Last Sunday night, a bomb, fused, capped and filled with dynamite, was found under the porch of a residence adjoining the Dearing home. Autoist 8shot At The following day several shots from ambush were fired through an automobile which stopped in front of Dearing's place when the engine stalled. Dearing, a former Oakland resort keeper, acquired the Wildwood avenue property last January and immediately he became the center of protest. A committee from the Piedmont West End Club demanded he give an option on the property. This he refused to do. Then followed a night demonstration of citizens, and Dearing caused his home to be guarded by armed men of his own race. On May 19 the Piedmont city council offered him $8,000 for his property. He not only refused the offer, asserting that he had paid $10,000 for the property, but added that he would accept $25,000 for the house and lot, $15,000 of it being for the "surrender of his constitutional rights." The Oakland Tribune of June 6 gives the following account of an effort being made to drive Major W. H. Loving from his home in the East Bay section by condemnation proceedings. Major Loving gained fame in the Philippines by creating a band of native Philippines which was considered the best in the East, and which made a successful tour of the United States. During the World War Major Loving was employed in special work by the War Department. He is a most accomplished gentleman. The Oakland Tribune says: Another attempt to oust a Negro exclusive residential district in the East Bay was revealed today by Commissioners W. J. Baccus and Albert Carter, who said that the Lakeshore Improvement Club had requested the city to condemn property owned by Major W. H. Loving, a Negro, at the southeast corner of Lakeshore avenue and Lake Park avenue. According to J. A. Monroe, one of the members of the association, the residents of the neighborhood have been negotiating for this property for some time for a location of a branch library. On April 9 of this year it was sold to Major Loving, who now occupies the home. The improvement club requests the city to condemn the property as a library site. Attorney W. B. Bunker, 558 Excelsior avenue, is the president of the club. The action was taken at a meeting held on May 15. Commissioner Carter said today that he would favor rejecting the condemnation. "We can't start condemnation proceedings every time someone objectable to his neighbors occupies a home," he said. "We would be flooded with requests of this sort if we started."

Pluko HAIR DRESSING Black and White Gums 10+ Green Gums 25+ LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK Sunday Night, June 15—By far the most outstanding feature of tonight's meeting was the enthusiastic welcome accorded by the vast assemblage of people in Liberty Hall to the Hon William Sherrell, and the Hon Rudolph Smith, second and third vicepresidents of the Universal Negro Improvement Association; who have just returned from a circuit of the divisions in the South and West of the country respectively. These stalwart leaders have by their powerful and convincing oratory and their unequivocal stand in behalf of the Universal Negro Improvement Association won the esteem and admiration of all with whom they have come in contact and are more especially considered as the New York local's favorite sons. Fresh from the field they were replete with information regarding the association in those sections of the country which they visited and spoke in terms of the highest optimism of the wonderful progress that the organization was making—the unabated zeal and enthusiasm of its followers, and the intense interest manifested in the Liberian colonization plan undertaken by the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the first step toward the accomplishment of which was made by the sending off a week ago of a group of pioneers to start construction work. Mr. Sherrill in a masterful speech characterized the colonization program as the greatest movement undertaken by Negroes looking toward their advancement. He pictured the Negro in America and in the West Indies living under conditions that were inimical to their best interests, fired with a new ambition and longing for an opportunity to give expression to their new ambitions and racial desires. This he said, presented such a program as the Universal Negro Improvement Association has undertaken in the building of Liberia commercially and industrially. Condition, he asserted, were such as prompted and urged Negroes to better themselves by removing to new and better environments and the Universal Negro Improvement Association looked to Africa, because in Africa Negroes have the numerical and territorial advantages which they have not elsewhere to establish a gigantic autonomy and to establish the place of government they were looking for and were hoping for. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, said Mr. Sherrill in conclusion, is striving and working to give to the world not a civilization the equal of any civilization that we now see or enjoy, but a civilization which will be greater than any the world has yet seen, thereby making not only a contribution to the race, but making a contribution to humanity. The Hon. Marcus Garvey, speaking on the slogan, "We Are On Our Way," drew attention to the changing world conditions as was evidenced in the governments of France and England, and the change in the government of South Africa, about to take place shortly. These changes, he said, were predicted by the Universal Negro Improvement Association when it first came into existence. More and more, he said, its organization needed to meet these changing conditions and he was glad that the Universal Negro Improvement Association had not faltered on the way, but year by year has been building up a stronger organization to meet the exigencies of the times. The hour is drawing near for Africa's redemption, declared Mr. Garvey, without the Negro-striking a blow in that direction; because it is not so much force that will redeem Africa, but organization among Negroes, such an organization as the U. N. L. A. was endeavoring to build up among the Negro peoples of the world. The other speakers were the Hon. G. E. Carter and the Hon. Rudolph Smith. Between the speeches, Mr. Garvey introduced with appropriate eulogy two distinguished gentlemen who sat on the platform—both members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association—in the persons of the Rev. Van Richards, D. D. brother-in-law of Chief Justice J. J. Dosson, of Liberia, and the Hon. G. L. Young, a member of the Legislative Council in the island of Jamaica. MR. CARTER'S ADDRESS Hon. G. Emonei Carter, Secretary-general in a brief address, captivated his audience. Quoting from a feature article and campeon in a New York newspaper, Tell your little boy about the President; he showed where the customary did not engage Negroes. He huzzed the opinion that the President of a bishop was the only president a Negro would hold in the country, and issued referring appeal for Negroes to support the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The message conveyed in the newspaper was a message to the minority group and he challenged contradiction. Mr. Carter also referred to the thought brought out in the article in THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1984 question, that the public school was the place for the development of the ambition of the youth of the land. How could the mind of Negro youth be so developed, he argued, in the face of white literature calculated to destroy confidence in self in the Negro. When white men spoke, he said, of the public school being the training ground of real Americans, they were not thinking of the Negro, and it was for, the Negro to support with might and main the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, to the end that they might attain to similar positions in their native land, Africa. OVATION FOR HON. RUDOLPH SMITH Hon. Rudolph Smith, third Assistant President-General, received a great ovation as he rose to address the gathering. He spoke of the splendid spirit elevated by the members of the association wherever he had gone. In Buffalo, Cleveland, Columbus, Kansas City, Kan.; Kansas City, Mo., and Youngstown, Ohio. From all he had been able to gather, the fourth international convention, which will be assembled in August, promised to be the greatest in history. There were several Negroes, he added, wealthy men, who convinced of the logic and righteousness of the principles of the association, were prepared to give of their finances, no less than of their moral support. They were coming to New York in August to discuss the details of their support with the President-General, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and to attend the convention. Everywhere he visited he found the greatest enthusiasm for the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, and he predicted for it a wonderful success. HON. WILLIAM SHERRILL'S SPEECH Hon William Sherrell received a great ovation when he rose to speak. He said: "I have just returned from my itinerary in the South, where we had much success, and we discovered that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is gaining ground and making hegway every day. I must especially commend here, publicly, the divisions in the South who so nobly stood by the campaign and did their very best to see to it that the campaign of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was a success. Remarkable Progress in the South Remarkable Progress in the South "The Universal Negro Improvement Association is making remarkable progress in that part of the country. We have thousands of little divisions dotted all over Alabama. Texas, Tennessee and Mississippi, many of them who have just simply formed themselves into little African bands to carry on the propaganda of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, if not so publicly, silently, and do more work for the cause of African freedom. You know it takes a whole lot more courage to be a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in Texas than it takes here in Harlem, New York. For that reason, we should especially be proud of those men and women in that part of the country, who are holding up the standards of the Red, the Black and the Green (Appeal). They are locked on the drip line, they are down where the light is hotter, they are in the front line treasured, and in spite of it we have those of today men and women who are standing in Georgia and Mississippi and Florida and Louisiana for the propaganda of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, not afraid to truth the truth of Caracolum where they go. They are very much enthusiastic over our big job of colonization that we have now undertaken. I think that since we are in the PROMINENT and RESPECTED RACE MEMBERS RESTORED to VIGOR of YOUNGER DAYS mildest of our program of colonisation it would be well tonight if we would speak a little bit along that line. You know the Universal Negro Improvement Association is in the midst of carrying forward the greatest colonisation program the Negro has ever tackled. A colonisation program that is not taken up simply for a pleasant pastime; not simply for a matter of experiment; that is not simply taken up to engage the energies of those who are carrying on the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but a colonisation program that is absolutely necessary at this stage of the development of the plans of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. A. colonization program which the Negro with his new ambition and his new hopes and his new desires demands and insists upon. Perhaps if we could bring about the things that we want without undertaking this gigantic program we might not take it up; if we could get those racial advantages, those racial opportunities for expression that we so much desire, we would go another way; but the condition in which the Negro finds himself in this country and in other countries necessitates such a program PROMIN RACE N to VIGO METHODIST PASTOR GIVES THANKS FOR “REJUVENATION” Mississippi Preacher Tells How His Energy Was Restored KEV. J. P. WAITS The Reverend J. D. Watson greeted loved parish of the Rivers M. F.

Without going to the expense of a gland operation and after having considerable money without space in search of his strength he was that he had about given up hope when one morning he led about a wonderful method that others had to love living with great finesse.

IS SAVED FROM "LIVING DEATH" Misery Confined Buffalo Man Two Years—Now Vigor- Mr. A Board of Buffalo New York and one of the most active and vigorous citizens also makes a similarly amazing report about a rapid recovery from premature old age and lack of vigor. For two years Mr. Beard had a misery that confined him to his bed most of the time, according to his own statement. "All my neighbors thought I would done cash in," is what he says about it. "I was, so weak I could scarcely walk two blocks without being exhausted. I tried specialists and various treatments and finally lost all faith in medicine. I just about gave up hope, when I read about korex compound and what other sufferer said it was doing for them. So I tried it. Before finishing the second box, I felt ready to go back to work. Today I am strong and vigorous. I am doing very heavy work, working from 10 to 12 weeks. I lost a day in nine weeks. That's what korex compound has done for me." Many who have felt themselves losing their hold on life, who felt old age coming on rapidly, and were generally discouraged, weary and worn out and who were seeking a corrective for exhausted glands and nerves praise korex compound for its effect upon them.

Enthusiasm All Over the Country This is halted with great enthusiasm in all parts of the country. Why? Because the Negro everywhere is anxious for an opportunity to express himself; the Negro in Georgia wants to express himself; the Negro in Mississippi wants to express himself; the Negro in America and in the West Indies want to express themselves, and seeing in this new colonization program an opportunity for racial expression they have taken to it enthusiastically and have, sworn to stick by it until the Universal Negro Improvement Association succeeds in placing in Liberia twenty or thirty thousand American families. (Great applause). Everywhere we see the urge for something to be done for the Negro, and those of you who enjoy a few more opportunities in this part of the country than your less fortunate brothers do in the Southern part of this country can hardly appreciate really what the Negro has to go up against. The Negro in the South lives every day face to face, with a humiliating condition that is almost unbearable. Even the law under which he lives gives him little or no protection. I am reminded here of an incident in Jacksonville where a white collector came into the home of a Negro woman and failed to take off his hat; she asked him to take off his hat and he cursed her, whereupon she struck him. They went to court and they fined her $220 for assault and battery. That is only one incident in a thousand where the Negro in that part of the country is wrong even, if he is right: when you are right you are wrong, and when you SPECTED STORED R DAYS RAILWAY TRAINMEN'S LODGE OFFICIAL ENJOYS NEW PEP Granc Secretary-Treasurer of Race Railway Organization Was "Made Young" GEORGE H.

Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. NOTICE TO READERS AND AGENTS From and After the Issue Dated July 5, 1924, the Price of This Paper Will Be 10 Cents Outside of New York City and Abroad The Paper Will Continue at 16 Pages THE MANAGEMENT LET'S PUT IT OVER BLACK BELTS NORTH AND BLACK BELTS SOUTH THOSE who make a business out of speculating on the many phases of the race problem have spent many profitable hours, for they get paid handsomely for their work, writing about the Southern Migrants, who have done so much to cripple the cotton and other industries of the Southern States, and about the Black Belts North and the Black Belts South. Most of them think the migration bad for the Negro, which inclines us to think it must be good for him, and most of them picture in the gloomiest way the conditions prevailing in the Black Belts of the North and the West, but they have precious little to say of the conditions prevailing in the Black Belts of the South. We know something about both Belts, neither of which is perfect, but which is the better must be determined by those who elect to "know for themselves and not for others." The law of population movement is simple enough, and is older than the Flood of Noah and the gathering at and dispersion from Troy, which was the most far-reaching migration of the ages. People do not move from one point to another if the conditions of living are satisfactory, or tolerable. That is all there is to it. Rollin Lynde Hartt, in an article in the current World's Work, finds unhappy conditions in the Black Belts of the North and West, conditions which prevail also in the White Belts of the same places, and which are inseparable from all populations, whether of one race or many, as in New York city, but which the Hartts do not always find it profitable to search out and hold up as "horrible examples." The Natchez (Miss.) Democrat seizes on Mr. Hartt's viewpoint to go after Marcus 'Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association without knowing much about either." It says: "Downright of all whites is spreading, mainly as a result of the attitude of Northern whites toward the black man. We do not believe he is right in this assertion, though the work of such charlatans as Marcus Garvey among illiterate Negroes is building up a low prejudice against the whites in all sections of the country. Ignorant Negroes of the South are now pouring thousands of dollars into Garvey's coffers every year, on the belief that he is going to establish a home and a government for them somewhere in Africa, and cowardly Federal officials, who belong to Garvey's political party, have permitted him to use the mail for this purpose. Leaders of this kind have for years preyed upon hard-working Negroes of the South, and are responsible for much of the discontent of the black race in this section. Moreover, white labor leaders, including Samuel Gompers, have made bad matters worse by seeking to get the Negro into the labor movement, on the theory that the white man is oppressing and plundering him." The Natchez Democrat is not a reliable authority on the Negro question at all, because its viewpoint is entirely white, as the Constitution and the laws of the State are white, and it sees and writes white, and that is the reason why so many Negroes have left the Black Belts of Mississippi and gone to the Black Belts of the North and West, where the conditions of life and living at their very worst are better than they are in Mississippi at their very best. Marcus Garvey is no more of a quack than is Editor Lambert, of the Natchez Democrat Marcus Garvey never has built up "among illiterate Negroes a low prejudice against the whites in all sections of the country," or one section, but he does insist that the Negro shall have as high opinion of himself and contend for his personal and Constitutional rights in the same way as the white man does. There is nothing of the charlatan about that; but there is much of the charlatan in the teachings of Editor Lambert, which have reduced the Negro in Mississippi to a citizenship without a vote, or the protection of his life and property by due process of law, when a white mob for its own brutal purposes determines to despoil him of either or both. The Negroes who want to go to Africa under the auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will know where they are going when they start, and what to expect when they get there. Liberia is on the map. It is a member of the League of Nations, and the United States is not, and it has a black President who is not white, and it speaks the English language and professes the Christian Faith, and that is more than the average white Mississippiian speaks fluently, on the one hand, and practices consistently, when he professes it, on the other. There is nothing in Mr. Garvey's work that requires any interference of the Federal authorities, but there is much in Editor Lambert's with which the Federal Government should interfere, because most of his work has been and is in violation of the Civil War amendments to the Federal Constitution, which the Constitution and the laws of Mississippi, backed by a perverted public opinion, outrage by direct provisions or adroit evations. It is Marcus Garvey's business to wake up the black man every- where to his just rights, "privileges and immunities," as a man and citizen. And it is lawful business, created and supported by black men for their benefit and protection against wrong and outrage. JAPANESE FARMERS SETTLE IN BRAZIL Publishing Company, of Brazil, which country has 3,275,500 square miles, with 30,000,000 souls, and which "is in need of a greater population to develop the industry of the country and has been importing laborers from outside countries. The Mainichi disclaims any militaristic purpose in the movement: Japan is overpopulated, and as Brazil needs more population advantage is taken of the need. The Mainichi further explains the purpose of the movement as follows: "Our aim in sending farmers to Brazil, however, is not purely economic. We believe that the proposed plan will bring about a harmonization of the civilizations of the East and West, which is denied in America and Australia. The charge that Japan is intending to carry out her militaristic foreign policy by sending her nationals into foreign countries is too senseless for refutation. We hope that the 200 representative farmers, who shall cultivate the virgin soil across the Pacific will show the world how the Japanese can become harmonized and welcomed immigrants." We have no doubt that the Japanese settlers will prosper in Brazil, and contribute a helpful influence to the mixed population of the country. The Japanese do not leave their home country because they are dissatisfied with it; they leave it because the country is over-populated, and the surplus people hope to better their economic conditions by going to countries that need more population and intelligent labor. It remains to be seen how far driving the Japanese out of California and other Western States, will affect the fruit and vegetable industry, which they had brought to a high state of production and values. The fact that Negroes are said to be filling their places will be watched with interest, and with the hope that they will make a big success of their labors. THE WHITE MAN'S RELIGION IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM; YES YES, the white man's religion is good enough for him, although he is supremely ignorant of the proper interpretation of the word "religion," but it is becoming painfully apparent that it is not good enough for Africans and Asiatics. It is not a religion based upon the Bible, and especially the New Testament; it is a religion evolved out of the self-consciousness of the white man's desires, his selfishness, his greed, his utter contempt of the rights of others, and his repudiation of the Christian dogma of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. He has appropriated the Bible as his own inheritance, and he has twisted its philosophy and prophecies to meet his physical and cultural desires and needs. We find, constantly, mutterings in our African exchanges against the teachings of the Christian whites and their practices, which do not harmonize at all. The Christian whites teach the doctrines of brotherhood and respect, for the rights and feelings of others, and the Christian statesmen and traders practice all of the tricks of land grabbers and hard task, masters on the one hand, and greedy tradesmen and exploiters of labor unable to protect itself by due process of law on the other. We find the same condition of affairs in the United States, especially in our Southern States, where whites and blacks have their separate denominations and communion, and do not preach nor practice always the same Christian doctrine, nor have any personal fellowship, with separate grayeyards as well as church houses. The growing chestiness of the dear "Nordies," who are mentioned in no Scriptures, we are familiar with as heirs of anything, and who made themselves felt and heard at the Versailles Peace Conference on the Japanese demand for "trail-like equality," and in the Chinese and Japanese legislation in our Western States, and in the restriction against the Japanese in our new immigration bill, following the exclusion of the Chinese, are beginning to find that they have not all of the last word in the two cornered controversy. The Japanese are making a great stir because of their exclusion from the United States, and the Chinese and East Indians sympathize with them. Aside from the loss of trade advantages with the Japanese which may be affected by the immigration restriction, a Tokio dispatch says that, according to the Hochi and other newspapers, the smaller native Christian churches have been dealt a damaging blow by the immigration restriction, and made Japanese distrust the missionaries and their teachings, and caused many Japanese to leave the churches. What then? The Christian Japanese are looking to a separation from the white missionaries and the establishment of a Christian church of their own. That is the proper thing for the Japanese to do. The Coreans, Chinese, Filipinos and East Indians should do the same, and if they should make a United Asiatic Christian church of it they would have great success, we believe, in developing their own spiritual ideals based on Biblical history, philosophy and prophecy. The native Christian churches in Africa will ultimately unite under their denominational unions, and adopt a system of Christian morals and philosophy consistent with their spiritual hopes and physical needs. Indications are that they are drawing to that determination now, as dissatisfaction with white missionary teachings and practices is steadily growing and finding a voice in their public gatherings and in their newspapers. God made man "in his own image." If a black man does not find God in his image he will look in vain to find him in the image of a white man, whose image is not black. The white man's God can never be the black man's God, judged by the selfish way the white man has worked out the Christian religion to be of one race and color, in which the white man must be "the first and the last." "the beginning and the end." in the whole scheme of life and living. We are unable to see it as the white man pretends to see it. The Way Burron Wilkins Lived and Passed Out From the Norfolk Journal and Guide When pistol bullets snuffed out the life of Barron D. Wilkinson in front of his place of business in New York, a few days ago, there was rewritten an old, old story. A life-time spent in the association of shady characters and in the pursuit of questionable business is at all times subject to an untimely ending. Barron's tragic death, though shocking and regrettable, need not have been surprising. There is no safety in dealing with social scavengers. For forty years he had lived among them, been a part of them, knew their intimacies. herbited them and oftimes protected them from a deserved fate, and it was one of them who exacted his life. The old adage, "there is no honor among crooks," holds true in more instances than one: The famous New York sportman and cabaret owner left wealth, a reputation "known from const to const," thousands of admirers, and many friends, and yet, he left an example unworthy of emulation by oncoming generations: He was kind, and kept his hands in his pockets for his friends, it is said of him, but it is to be recalled that much of his benefice was mindedirection. It would have been better for society if many of those, whom he kept out of jail, had gone there; and, no doubt, hundreds of aspiring youth have looked upon Barron Wilkins as an idol; to be imitated; and have shaped their lives with hopes of emulating him. OUR POLITICAL ECLIPSE APPEARS TO BE COMPLETE By T. Thomas Fortune The rise and fall of the Negro in politics, is one of the tragedies of the past fifty years. In every other avenue of thought and effort he has made what is regarded as remarkable progress. His church and business development has been of the most encouraging nature. In scholarship and the professions he has steadily forged ahead. But in politics, in the places where he used to be strongest he has steadily grown weaker and weaker. And the Republican party, which has run out its course as the party of human rights, from which it has been steadily drifting since the close of Reconstruction Days, has been showing less and less interest in the race as a political asset, came finally, in the. Harding Administration, to regard the race as a burden which it strove to unload, and would have had not death cut short the life of the President. The party went all to smash at Cleveland, the old leadership, with Senator Lodge as the chief of the old order, being driven out entirely, and a new leadership set up, with President Coolidge as the master mind. The Negro had less representation at the Cleveland convention at at any previous one I remember. The new leadership appears to have reversed the Harding policy, and to have given us a new lease of life as Republican partisans, out of which we got two members of the National Committee and the control of two States at least, Georgia and Mississippi, with Henry Lincoln Johnson dominating the former and Perry W. Howard dominating the latter. In short, the Coolidge policy gave the Southern white movement a death blow, and did it at a time when the Negro's political eclipse appeared to be complete. There may be better days ahead for the race in Republican politics than there have been since Theodore Roosevelt occupied the White House. But the race has grown away from the Republican party in the past sixteen years. Bad treatment by the party has sourced it. The Republican Congress, in its two last sessions, simply showed that it had no sympathy whatever with us as partisans, and strove to drive us out of the party by side tracking, necessary legislation sought by us, and by refusing to contain the few Negro nominations sent the Senate for confirmation by the President. Discontent with the party is rampant among thoughtful Negroes in all of the Northern and Western States, and a lot of wise business has got to be done to hold the rank and file in line when the voting begins in November. The unexpected and unwelcome influence which the Ku Kluck Klan has demonstrated that it has developed in Republican politics, with the maintaining of Klan headquarters in Cleveland, and even demanding that its candidate for Vice President, Senator Watson, of Indiana, be nominated as President Collidge's running mate—the thing has confused hundreds and thousands of Negro waters, who hate the Klan as the devil hates holy water. Right now, confusion prevails among the Negro voters of the country. It will be interesting to see how they will come out of it as the campaign proceeds. That they are thinking as never before is one of the most hopeful signs for them in the situation. From every sort of eclipse there is always an emergence. Don't overlook that fact. 1,500 Indians to Get $10,000,000 of Land ABERDEEN, Wash. June 11.—Approximately 1,500 Indians of the Quincy Reservation will share about $10,000,000 worth of timber land. It was estimated recently, as a result of the Supreme Court decision whereby the allotment policy of the Department of Indian Affairs for the past twelve years is rendered invalid. Each Indian's share by this computation is about $6,700. The territory to be allotted to the Indians constitutes about three-quarter of the reservation area. The remaining fourth was allotted prior to suspension of allotments as agricultural and grazing land. Work of allotment will be started immediately, according to advises from Charles H. Burke. Indian Commissioner at Washington, D.C. The lands to be allotted include some of the finest tracts of standing timber in the State. In 1920 there were 90 less children under five years of age per 1,000 Negro women between the ages of 15 and 45 than in the year 1910, as compared with a decrease of only 13 among the white women. If anyone had suggested a sixty-year age limit for bishops at either of the general conferences he would have been mobbed 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 Brotherhod 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. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS We must organize prior to the November, election, for the purpose of studying the qualities of the various candidates. We will organize, and we will concentrate upon the candidate that means most to our group. If we can attain victory being unorganized, how much greater our strength should we join hands for the common good.—Wheeling Advocate. The seating of the delegation from Georgia, headed by National Committeeman Henry Lincoln Johnson, by the Republican National Committee, will be hailed with joy by the colored people throughout this country. You may say what you will, but that able statesman of color ranks with the heat, irrespective of color, that this country has ever produced. Despite his "ups" and "downs" he has remained true to the Republican party. His only rival for this kind of recognition is R. R. Church of Tennessee and he should be accorded the same kind of recognition. The two are friendly and they represent the highest type of Negro political endeavor. We are standing solidly behind both of them—Richmond Planet. We now have two, as Perry W. Howard will represent Mississippi on the National Committee—Ed. The Negro World. Opposition to segregation upon the part of the colored American is simply his right for the status of a man and not that of a mere animal or chattel—Omaha Monitor. "The strength of the wolf is the pack. The strength of the pack is the wolf."—Can't we learn a lesson from that?—St. Louis Argus. It would have helped hasten this better day if a spirit of tolerance for the Chinese had led Congress to apiece them the gratuitous insult of race pro- HEALTH TOPICS By DR. B. S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association Adding Salt to the Tale I have been asked why salt is eliminated from the diet of a person suffering from kidney trouble. Kidney disease brings a long tale of woe to the victim and adding salt to that tale makes more woe. When there is chronic trouble with the organ which normally secrets a great deal of fluid, it stands to reason that there is going to be difficulty in handling the liquids. Then, too, in kidney trouble the poisons left in the system do damage to the circulatory system, which, in turn, has much to do with the elimination of water. You have observed that in those who suffer from kidney disease, there is apt to be puffiness under the eyes and in the face and sometimes elsewhere. That is a condition similar to dropy, that is, the tissues become "water logged." In some conditions, the water collects in the abdominal cavity and a puncture has to be made so that the extra fluid can be drawn off. Salt attracts water. On the damp days of summer, you know how the salt-shaker behaves. The water collects and makes it impossible to pour the salt upon the food. So in the human being, the more salt taken in the diet, the more water is attracted from all sources and retained by the body. In a condition which carries with it the possibility of producing dropy, it is not safe to court disaster by adding to the possibilities. It is not wise either to cut salt out of the dietary entirely as the food without this material becomes so flat. scription. Their action savors of the spirit that made kings feel they wield divine, and lords treat their subjects as so much cattle. Men are men, be they white, yellow or black, all children of a common Father, to be dealt with in a spirit of brotherhood. This divine law, summed up by the Son Himself, will prevail—Kansas City Call. The time may come when something virile, something definite, and something manly will be done to impress the leading parties of the country that some Negroes, at least, know the difference between jobs for the few and POSITION for the WHOLE—Pittsburgh Courier. Parents whose children are finishing the ward schools will be reminds in duty if they do not put them through high school. A little reading, a little writing, is not enough any more. A man must think. The places a pair of hands on all these days are few. Men are paid most for that part of them above the eyebrows—Kansas City Call. What steps Japan takes will have to be seen. Her standing among the enlightened nations is secure and it is the opinion of the writer that the action of the United States Congress will only emphasize to the rest of the world the danger of desired white supremacy and to the perspective from which the United States views any but those of the white race. It is a dangerous piece of legislation and in taking its present stand, the United States probably has taken a position that some day it must relinquish.Strict immigration laws have proven a benefit to our group in many sections. The pressure put on the would-be American has been a blessing in discourse from many viewpoints.—Omaha, New Era. and distasteful that the appetite loses some of its edge and the patient is in danger of not getting enough food to support life and build resistance to the disease which is present. Therefore, we advise that on suffering from chronic Brights disease at a little salt as is compatible with keeping up the desire for food. In passing, let me say that kidney trouble usually gives the puffy eyes before it attacks the lower extremities. In heart trouble, a droops condition may start in the feet rather than in the face. Tokio Stores Boycott (By the Associated Press) TOKIO, June 3—Several Tokio stores today displayed signs which read: "No American Goods Sold Here." A number of the vernacular newspapers assert that the movement to boycott American products, started as a protest against passage of the new American immigration law, including a clause prohibiting entry of Japanese, is gaining ground among the middle and lower classes, despite efforts of the government to check it.

DAWES OF OHIO AS RUNNING MATE OLD GUARD AND CONGRESSIONAL DOMINATION OF THE PARTY THROWN DOWN AND OUT Platform Declares for Coolidge Policies With Strict Law Enforcement, but Silent on Liquor Question and Reduction of Southern Representation H. LINCOLN JOHNSON OF GEORGIA AND PERRY W. HOWARD OF MISSISSIPPI MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE Thursday of last week the National Republican Convention, in session at Cleveland, Ohio, nominated President Calvin Coolidge, of Massachusetts, to succeed himself. He was nominated on the first ballot, the vote being: For Coolidge, 1,065; LaFollette, of Wisconsin, 34; Hiram Johnson, of California, 10. Coolidge sentiment ran away with the convention. The effort to secure an acceptable running mate for the President proved a very difficult task, as no one appeared to want it who should have it. Former Governor Frank O. Lowden of Illinois was nominated, but refused to accept, as he had repeatedly declared he would not. General Charles G. Dawes, of Ohio, who can also be assigned to Illinois, was then nominated. He will give strength to the ticket, as he has a record of long and meritorious service in war and peace. The Old Guard, as it is called, and the Congressional domination of the party, which have consistently opposed and blocked the policies of President Coolidge, was thrown down hard and trampled under foot, being allowed no quarter whatever, which should be gratifying to all Negroes, as these forces have in the past sixteen years turned their backs upon Negro partisans and came near driving them out of the party. There ought to be a new policy towards the Negro by the new management of the party, and we think there will be. Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Georgia, and Perry W. Howard, of Mississippi, were acknowledged to be the leaders of the party in their States and will be members of the National Republican Committee. We reproduce here those platform planks which affect the Negro people most directly. The policies of the President, which the Congress has set its face against, were endorsed; but liquor enforcement, Klan menace and reduction of Southern representation, one of the most dangerous and mischievous demands insisted upon by certain ignorant Negro leaders who think they are educated, were not referred to, except indirectly. The following are declarations from the platform of special interest to the readers of The Negro World: JUDGE FOR YOURSELF The Madam C.J.

Name St. Add. City State Tetter Salve This Company Serves Top Quality—Not N Today The conservation of human resources is one of the most solemn responsibilities of government. There is an obligation which cannot be ignored and which demands that the Federal Government shall aggrie as lies in its power, give to the people and the States the benefit of its counsel. The welfare activities of the government connected with the various departments are already numerous and important, but lack the coordination which is essential to effective action. To meet these needs, we approve the suggestion for the creation of a Cabinet, post of education and relief. In Line of War We believe that in time of war, the nation should draft for its defense not only its citizens, but also every re- source which may contribute to success. The country demands that, should the United States ever again be called upon to defend itself by arms, the President be empowered to draft such material, resources and such service as may be required, and to stabilize the prices of service and essential commodities, whether used in actual warfare or private activities. Immigration and Nationalization The unprecedented living conditions in Europe following the World War created a condition by which we were threatened with mass immigration that would have seriously disturbed our economic life. The law recently enacted already with us who is seeking to secure an economic foothold for him self and family, from the competition that would come from unrestricted immigration. The administrative features of the law represent a great constructive advance and eliminate the hardships suffered by immigrants under the emergency statute. We favor the adoption of methods which will exercise a helpful influence among the foreign-born population, and provide for the education of the alien in our language, customs, ideals and standards of life. We favor improvement of naturalization law. unstaffing devotion to the Constitution, and to the guarantee of civil, political and religious liberty therein contained. With us, parties are essential instrumentalities of government. Our government functions best when the chief executive is supported by a majority in the Congress of the same political faith, united by party principles and able, by concerted action, to carry out, in an orderly way, a definite, consistent, and well-balanced program. In urging the people to elect a Republican President and Vice-President we urge them to elect to the Senate The Phillipines policy of the Republican party has been and is inspired by the belief that our duty toward the Philippine people is a national obligation which should remain entirely free from parties and politics. In accepting the obligation which came to them with the control of the Philippine Islands the American people have only the wish to serve, advance and improve the condition of the Philippine people. That thought will continue to be the dominating factor in the American consideration of the many problems which must inevitably grow out of our relationship to the people. If the time comes when it is evident to Congress that independence would be better for the people of the Philippines with respect to both their domestic concerns and their status in the world, and the Filipino people then desire complete independence, the American Government will gladly accord it. A careful study of the conditions in the Philippine Islands has convinced us that the time for such action has not yet arrived. We urge the Congress to enact at the earliest possible date a Federal antilynching law, so that the full influence of the Federal Government may be wielded to exterminate this hideous crime. We believe that much of the misunderstanding which now exists can be eliminated by human and sympathetic study of its causes. The President has recommended the creation of a commission for the investigation of social and economic conditions and the promotion of mutual understanding and confidence. Orderly Government The Republican party reform its devotion to orderly Government, under the guarantees embodied in the Constitution of the United States. We recognize the duty of constant vigilance to preserve at all times a clean and honest government and to bring to the bar of justice every defiler of the public service in or out of office. Disloyalty and corruption are not political attributes. The recent Congressional investigations have exposed instances in both parties of men in public office who are willing to sell official favors and men out of office who are willing to buy them, in some cases with money, and in others with influence. The sale of influence resulting from the holding of public position or from association while in public office or the use of such influence for private gain or advantage is a perversion of public trust and prejudicial to good government. It should be condemned by public opinion and forbidden by law. We demand the speedy, fearless and impartial prosecution of all wrong doers, without regard for political affiliations, or position, but declare no greater wrong can be committed against the people than the attempt to destroy their trust in the great body of their public servants. Admitting the deep humiliation, which all good citizens share, that our public life should have harbored some dishonest men, we assert that these undesirable do not represent the standard of our national integrity. The government at Washington is served today by thousands of earnest, conscientious and faithful officials and employees in every department. It is a grave wrong against those patriotic men and women to strive indiscriminately to heaslm the names of the innocent and undermine the confidence of the people in the government under which they live. It is even a graver wrong when this is done for partisan purposes or for selfish exploitation. The Republican administration has already taken charge of the prosecution of official dereliction, and it will continue the work of discovering and punishing; but it will not confuse the innocent with the guilty, nor stipulate, for party advantage, the enforcement of the law. We must have respect for law. We must have observance of law. We must have enforcement of law. The very existence of the government depends upon this. The abdication of private will for public law is only another name for oppression, disorder, anarchy, and the mob rule. Every government depends upon the loyalty and respect of its citizens. Violations of the law weaken and threaten government itself. No honest government can condone such actions on the part of its citizens. The Republican party pledges the full strength of the government for the maintenance of these principles by the enforcement of the Constitution and of all laws. Women Delegates We extend our greetings to the women in delegates, who for the first time under Federal authorization sit with us in full equality. The Republican party from the beginning has espoused, the cause of women suffrage, and the presence of these women delegates signifies to many here the completion of a task undertaken years ago. We welcome them not as assistants or as auxiliary representatives, but as co-partners in the great political work in which we are engaged, and we believe that the actual partnership in party councils should be made complete. The Republican party reaffirms its unyielding devotion to the Constitution and to the guarantees of civil, political, and religious liberty therein contained. Constitutional Guarantee The Republican party reaffirms its unimpelling devotion to the Constitution, and to the guarantee of civil, political and religious liberty therein contained. With us, parties are essential instrumentalities of government. Our government functions best when the chief executive is supported by a majority in the Congress of the same political faith, united by party principles and able, by concerted action, to carry out, in an orderly way, a definitive, consistent, and well-balanced program. In urging the people to elect a Republican President and Vice-President we urge them to elect to the Senate and House of Representatives men and women who believe in the Republican principles, acklowledge party responsibility and who can be relied on to keep faith with the people by carrying, out the program, which the Republican party presents and pledges itself to fulfill. DEADLY SEED SOWN BY PROPOGANDISTS (Continued from page 2) conception of justice and no sense of humor at all. This inferiority myth has been so assiduously fostered in us that there are, thousands of Negroes today who believe that as a people they are forever doomed. In effect, to be "thewers of wood and drawers of water." Coming down to modern times, the extensive and intensive use made of this potent agency during the late war should be too well known to need such elaborate comment here. It is sufficient to say both sides very successfully employed it. The foregoing examples of propaganda are of a political and racial type. I will now discuss the religious kind. And let me state at once that, in my opinion, it has the most harmful results of all of them, for the very good reason that it is hardest to eradicate. Silly Superstftions We are taught by white teachers, misakenly called Christians, to dislike and despise thousands of our brothers of different religious persuasions whom they are pleased to call heretics, infidels and heathen. These apologes to the beautiful teachings of Jesus of Nazareth have incubated in the minds of credulous Negroes the most silly superstitious and harmful beliefs. They would have us take the symbolic sayings of Jesus in a literal sense, for instance, such a one as "Lay not up for yourselves treasures on earth, etc., but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven." It is clear, in this case, that Christ did not mean to teach thriftlessness, but only to convey to us the duty of not something the ideal to the material part of our nature, "Heaven" or "the kingdom of God" being within you as we, Himself, expressly stated. But it well suits these "hypocrites" and "whited sepulchres" to have Negroes satisfied to be poor in the expectation of being rich in a heaven of whose very location we are utterly ignorant, if not of its actual existence, and which, like castles of our childhood's fairy tales, is made attractive with hypothetical embellishments of "streams of gold," "crystal streams," "many jewelled gates," "just mark you, these self-same white decorations continue to lay hands on at the money and property they can get. We are also taught to humble ourselves to our "letters." And begin Paul advised certain slaves to return to and obey their masters, a piece of adduce that some believe is tantamount to his advocacy of slaves, thousands of white, so-called Christians, and justified and would again justify Negroes are For Other Days The trouble with the manner of Christianized Negroes is that, stressed in the infallibility myth of the Bible, a book which is but an old historical record (or rather set of records) interspersed with much legendary matter and entertaining, if silly, notation, we fail to realize that much of the exhortations contained therein were solely meant for the people of its day. The white nations, quite aware of the ignorance said exhortations had, consequently their personal and national progress is not funded. Paul is very popular with the whip- preachers and no wonder.

There was another point which he could not help thinking the people who made the forecast of our population of whites and natives had overlooked. In Port Elizabeth the other day he tried a case in which a native came before him who was the secretary of an organization representing 11,000 natives. He was a highly intelligent native and gave his evidence with the greatest possible clarity, although he had to go into a large number of intricate figures and details. He did so without making a single mistake and without hesitation for a moment. Asked where he came from, the native said he came from Navasaland.

MARTIN DE VERE STUART Brooklyn, N. V. WILLIAM-WARE AND VALUE OF THE BALLOT (Continued from page 2) whole. The power of the intelligent Negro vote in America and elsewhere will be felt as never before. For with the increased knowledge of the political strength that is thus, the Negroes have come to accept the advice of men like Marvin Garvey, and those gentle leaders among them whom they can be trusted to guide them for the welfare and profit of the poor, and not for personal ends. No intelligent Negro will even think of casting his vote from the time of ward, unless instructed by Garvey or those authorized by Garvey or impart such knowledge. For the new Negro knows that the moment he gives his vote to any person or person whose platform or belief have not met with the approval of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its leaders, just as spells he has known an anglote, an upperity to impose his belief and the limitation of his vote. It all means that the new Negro will not vote for that party, that he acts for the cause and that he serves the purpose of the Negro. DR. M. N. W. BAKSON, P. O.

Text, Rom. v.8, "God commandeth His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." We have seen, my friends, that character of each one of us is gradually, but steadily, approaching fixity; that a moment will arrive when it will attain the main direction toward its final state; that it will attain the main direction toward its final state; that it will arrive with at least apparent auddenness, and that the future destiny of the soul depends upon that final directing at the coming of Christ. Such is the law of preparation applied to character. Again we have seen that if the action of that law law us is to be fruitful and pleased then, above all things, one powerful principle must away our being; to if we must submit with the promptitude of a trained slave before an Eastern depot, under its attraction our inner life must rise and fall, with the precision of a calm or crested, but always excellent to governing forces in its mounting and receding tides. We must in all things cease to be the willing victim of a lie, we must aim, we must struggle, to be true. Such is our law, such our principle of preparation. But now we must travel further today. This wants precision. We must enter more completely into the inner penetralia of the temple of the soul. We must pass to a more religious, a more entirely spiritual truth. If all this be so, we are, as a result, the possibility of—what I may call—a supernatural temper, by which we can "prepare to meet Him"? St. Paul's mind was saturated with truth. I had rather say it was so swept by the currents of the grace of God, that, like a long closed chamber submitted to the action of a freshening breeze, like a long barred cavern swept by the dissolving torrents of a mountain stream, it was clear of all obstructions; his soul was guided by, the principle of utter, thorough truth. How did that principle act upon the soul, to bring it within practical range of the truths of eternity? The text, a passing but important statement in a weighty, dignomatic argument, suggests shortly but vigorously the religion, the Christian application of our law and our principle. If, by the grace of God, the soul be entirely true, Revelation points to the effect of such a power in two important directions, within and without; within the soul in its inner life, and also in its relation to an eternal world. It needs no inspired teachers to convince us of the fact, the marvellous fact, of our inner life. Sometimes, doubtless, it is obscured, sometimes almost forget, but partially at least it must be by all of us felt. Some men are for more deeply alive to it in others. Unselfish thought and teaching, for instance, seem to have been almost shaped and colored by the sentiments of his perception of the fact—the inner solitude of the soul; its constant intercourse with, reflections upon, itself. The war of life may draw the voice; but in still moments, certainly in the still moments when you stand upon the verge of the grave, you are aware that you are alone. Again you are, my brother, equally aware, naturally, of the probability by revelation of the certainty of eternal truth that, whether you sleep or wake, dream or act, eternal truth (though your relation to it may vary) itself does not change. Now, submission to the principle of truth brings out and decimus within the soul a sense of important realities in both directions—in the experience of inner life, and in the world of Revolution. The soul gains a true sense of the reach and range of one terrible and intimate fact; in other words, a sense of sun. St. Paul states plainly a real condition—real whether felt or not—of which he had, however, acquired an interior and deep perception, when he describes himself, and others, objects of His Master's affection, as being "yet sunners." There are two very different ways World's Biggest Bargain Biggest Bargain Ever Offered $30 Style Hand Beaded Genuine Tussah SILK Dress ONLY $398 C.O.D. MAGAZINE PAGE of dealing with any spiritual faces, with results, accordingly, profoundly different. Donatele, the bright, the light-hearted Florentine boy, worked earnestly enough, and with real intention, we may be sure, at his carving of the symbol of Passion, but he worked so to speak ab extra. He had grasped the thought of shape and color in the fair faces and lithe and graceful forms of the companions of his busy life at Florence. Framo work is not everything. There may be technical skill in the poet or the painter, but never is the mere framework; however, wrought with technical skill, either in word or line, in itself a sufficient expression of a serious truth. Too great is man, too real his struggle, too tremendous his destiny, for that. Donatello with his keen eye and practical hand placed on the cross a mere peasant, a contadina, scarcely a Christ. It was the work of a young, sweet spirit, only in the stage of imitation and in the glow of joyous life. Brunelleschi, his friend, leas lovable in many ways, at least had the gift of a meditative spirit. "He was given," says Vasaril, "to constant meditation upon difficult questions." Striving at his work of the crucifix, he worked ab intra; the lines should be perfect, indeed, but is from the depths of the immortal spirit, from those remote entrance doors, through which stream into the soul the forms and foiless thoughts of eternity, that it gains inspiration to deal with spiritual truth—working ab intra. Ellippe's figure was no longer a centadino, but a Christ. We may (class) how many do2) work merely on the surface ir dealing with sin. Work with it somehow we must. We cannot ignore the spectral form gigante, terrible. So men look outside, content themselves with acknowledging in some form or other in patent, an incontrovertible, reality. Sin is to them an uncontested fact of humanity; of themselves, therefore in a sense, that is, of themselves, because they do, of course, form a part of the human race, but of no further interest, needing no further tribute of abstinence than belongs to the possession of a mind, a hand, or any other common feature of the family of man. Hence, sin has its poetry. Hideous in itself, it is robed in garments not its own to render it poetical, practically it is treated as misfortune, and looked upon as pathetic, not punishable; the romance-writer—many a modern novel is an example in point—paints its worn features to simulate the glow of health; wraps its spectral form in glorious robes to cover deformity and gives it the gift of graceful movement. Many a time, the stage exerts its powerful—what surely might be its emobbling—attractions to cast a glitter of false sentiment over the deprivacy of sin. It is treated as inevitable and, therefore, excusable; another form of the sad human habit of submission to a lie. Unmask it and half the danger is gone. Pity and love the suffer as much as you can, and you only can when you realize his danger—but unmask the ugleness of the cursed thing. The effects of a wrong method of treating sin are plain—sadly plain—in society. More anon. But remember it is this fatal, maudlin method that endangers true, and therefore vigorous, thought in the practical relations of life. In our own times society, for instance, learns often enough to treat the marriage tie, and with it the sacred objects of true hearts that are connected, with it, as a bond of necessary, possibly respectable slavery, while a glow of romance casts unreal beauty and licentiousness of ignoble and infamous passion. There is here no real, no true sense of sin. Thank God, however, the soul may work all intra. By grace it, wakens to realize, wide-eyed, that this as a personal, an intimate, a moral fact, that it is an act of self, the real self marking the soul, and when the soul is left with it, with no distractions, displaying its utter horror. Then, like the fugitives of the ruined cities, dazed, terrified, by the fine ashes of Vocuvius, he feels he must—if only he can—he must flee. Then, like any of us in an unlabeled street in the midst of a chill December fog, he feels he wildered by a real force affecting himself, confusing his acts. This is personal, therefore doubly terrible; this also blessed fact!) is to be conquered, because, even in its full power, conquerable. To waken up to the personal horror, to the need and to the possibility of conquest is to have some true sense of sin.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1984 BEDTIME STORIES IN A PULLMAN SMOKER BEDTIME STORIES IN A PULLMAN SMOKER "Pardon me, sir," said the porter to a gentle who seemed to be mad at the world, in response to his rather sharp order for more matches, which had given out under the assault of the smokers, "but there's a lady ahead, sir, in number six, with three kiddies, and she having quite a time with 'em. I've been helping her all the evening, but I guess they'll be in bed soon, now." "Too bad about her. Wonder why her husband allows her to travel alone?" asked the grouchy smoker, as he slammed his paper on the car seat. Before he had, finished speaking, though, the busy porter had dashed away in response to a violent ring from No. 6. He was gone quite ten minutes, and although he was full of smiles when he returned, to the smoker, his perspiring brow showed that he had been hard at work for the occupants of No. 6. "What berth did you say those kids had?" asked the grouch, with a scowl. "No. 6, sir." "Well, I'm in No. 3 and I guess there's no sleep in store for me tonight," responded the grouch, as the sound of a childish yell came down the Pullman alley, and two sharp bells indicated that the porter's services were again needed. "They're all right now—gone to bed," said the porter gleefully as he came back to the smoker and snapped on another light, under which he fondly gazed at a crisp, brand-new ten-dollar bill. "Don't wish you no bad luck, sir, but I could wait on 'em all night at this price," continued the happy porter, while the grouch gazed at the bill in astonishment. "Did you get that from her?" he asked, in a feautous tone, as his interest increased visibly. "I sure did," answered the porter. "Well, it ought to be split among the other passengers as a refund for the discomfort they'll be put to. Kids and troublesome women have got to right to break the rest of hard-working 'business men,' the grouch concluded, as he lighted a stole. "By the way, she told me to stop and see the kids some time whim I'm in New York, and gave me this photograph of 'em as a souvenir,' said the porter, as he proudly exhibited a small picture of a three handsome little brown kiddies, who looked as though they might be about, four, six and eight years old. "She said their father and mother would be back next month, just as soon as the government's settled up with 'em. Wanted to get the kiddies home before the warm weather began." "But," gaped the grouch, "they're just colored children. They must be foreigners." "No, they're Americans," responded the porter quickly. "The father's heen over assisting the Brazilian government for two years at a big salary. And she said: the government granted him a $100,000 bonus and designated her to escort the kiddies home. After that, she's going back to Brazil. "Oh, yes, I nearly forgot," said the porter, just as the hel. rang again and the indicator registered No. 6. "She asked me to find the name of a reliable broker in New York who would be interested in some Brazilian bonds." "Won't you please give her my card," said the rejuvenated grouch graciously, as he handed the porter half a dozen embossed cards, and tell her that I be most delighted to meet her at her convenience," he added, as he anxiously followed the porter to the car aisle. "A-a-n," she stuttered, as he dashed his hand in his change pocket, "give the kiddies two bits a piece, will you?" Negro Migration Swings Back and Forth Monroe N. Work in Southern Workman The Negro migration of the past eight years, while it may be considered as one movement, has two important phases—that of 1915-1920 and that of 1922-1924. The first of these really began in 1915, reached its maximum in 1917, and continued at a decreasing rate up to 1920, when because of the economic depression, it almost ceased. Estimates made at the time of the number of Negroes who went north ranged from 150,000 to 1,000,000. The 1920 census showed, however, that, in spite of the great movement of Negroes northward during the previous four years, the number of Negroes from the South living in the North had increased in the decade 1910-1920 by only 330,260. Estimates of the number who have migrated in the past three years vary from 100,000 to 500,000. It is very probable that if a census was taken this year it would show that there are probably not 250,000 more Negroes from the South living in the North and West than there were in 1920. As a matter of fact, many Negroes who went North in 1922-1924 were persons who had already been North and had returned to the South during the economic depression. It is probable that during the past ten years several hundred thousand Negroes have moved from the South to the North and back again. This movement both North and South was taking place during the winter of 1923-24 and caused many Southern newspapers to publish the statement that Negroes were returning South and that the peak of the migration had been reached. What was taking place was that many Negroes who returned South during the winter went North again during the spring, and carried with them additional migrants. -Out in Missouri 52 percent of the people who have reached the age of 109 years and over are Negroes. "Let's put it over." Try again. Don't linger by the way. Do all you can with might and main To meet the welcome day. "Let's put it over." Be sincere. It is no idle task. It calls for all—one here, one there To pull—that's all we ask. If all unite, though fast, though slow, But truth must have its way. "Let's put it over." Gentle friends, Why stand ye gazing on? Qn you, and others, it depends, Hence, let us get along. The captain's cry, "Let's put it over," "Let's put it over," he says. So must the program move and move, Go upward to our gaze.

Shall We Have a Man Equity Congress met in regular session Sunday afternoon, June 15, at 4 o'clock, at Killis Hall, 162 West 123th street, with Speaker Charles H. Bailley in the chair. After the reading of the minutes, all further business was adjourned, and the discussion of the subject for the day was taken up. The chairman, Charles H. Bailley then presented Ex. Alderman, George W. Harris, who told his audience of the splendid possibilities of sending a colored man to the Congress. He gave the audience a clear outline as to how they should proceed to win in the coming election, Mr. Harris was just back from the Cleveland convention. He also had visited the President on his trip, and had discussed this matter with his secretary, who approved of Mr. Harris' desire. At the end of his speech, the audience gave Mr. Harris a rising vote of thanks for the splendid message he had brought them. The chairman, Charles H. Bailey, then announced that on the coming Sunday there would be moving picture exhibition given in this hall, reviewing the history of Equity, and setting forth its present campaign to send a colored man to Congress, and have the Fifteenth Infantry of New York officered from colonel down to lance corporal. The Rev Mr. Woodson then told the audience of several churches in which moving pictures would be shown, and the names of the ministers who have given their consent to co-operate with the movement. The house then elected Charles H. Bailey, the speaker, by unanimous consent, to represent Equity Congress at the Democratic convention, and Clerk William DuFolio was elected over Congressman Lefkowitz as alternate. The speaker urgently requests and invites all its members and friends to be present Sunday, April 22, to see and hear the history of Equity Conkre- and at which time he will render his report as delegate to the convention.—Ady National Urban League Activities—Note And Comment The Executive Board of the National Urban League met in regular session on Monday afternoon last at the Russell Sage Foundation Building, New York City. Engle Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the league, re ported in part the following accomplishments for the past four months: The Baltimore Urban League has gone into temporary organization and a committee on organisation has been appointed to recommend a permanent plan of organization and a program. The Waterbury (Connecticut) organization, established on recommendation from the report on the survey of the Negro population there, made by the Department of Research and Investigations of the Urban League; has opened an office with a secretary in charge. Under the auspices of the Department of Research and Investigations of the National Urban League a survey of the Negro population of Morristown, N. J., in being made, same to be used as a basis for practical work to be inaugurated in that community. As an outcome of the success of Urban League activities in St. Paul and the increasing industrial problems of the Negroes of Minneapolis, we have been requested to come to that city to look into the possibilities for establishing a league in Minneapolis. The Tampa, Florida, Urban League has been formally accepted as a member of the Community Chost of that city and the Birmingham (Alabama) Urban League has gone into temporary organization through the work of Jense O. Thomas, our Southern field secretary. The National Conference of Social Work, as a result of the efforts of the league, has placed thirteen colored speakers and four, white speakers on colored subjects on its program at its conference this year in Toronto, June 15 to July 2. The sections in which the discussion will take place are COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION, THE FAMILY, CHILDREN, INDUSTRY and HEALTH. The Carnegie Corporation of New York has renewed for a period of two years its grant of $5,000 a year to the support of the Department of Research and Investigations and an anonymous gift of $1,000 has been made towards the support of OPPORTUNITY magazine. To date, over $600 has been plied by colored men to OPPORTUNITY magazine because of their appreciation of this anonymous gift. The plan for establishing the National Industrial Department of the League has received encouragement through additional contributions and pledges to the sum of $4,500 per year for three years pledged by Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. There are now contributions and pledges amounting to $1,025 towards the $8,000 budget, making a balance needed of $1,575. Unique Negro School.

This year the organization is to discuss at its convention all those vital problems that effect the race and to lay down a solid base for the industrial elevation and development of our people.

Pay your dues and annual assessment regularly, so that the Association can have ready capital to carry on its work. 3. Read and study from cover to cover your Constitution, so that no one can take advantage of you by infringing upon your constitutional rights. 4. See to it that your local Secretary makes a monthly report of all moneys received and disbursed, and let him read the copy of his report to the Parent Body and produce receipt of acknowledgment for remittances, so that you can be sure that your Division is financial. 5. See to it that no Officer or anyone starts anything by way of raising money or doing business or creates any financial obligation on the Division without the proper consent first of the Parent Body and members of the Division at a special general meeting duly and properly called. 6. Look out always for sharpers and self-seekers, who are always anxious to promote new schemes for their own purposes. 7. Put down at all times disloyalty to the Parent Body from Officers or members. 8. Pay no money without getting a receipt. 9. Don't loan your money to individuals. 10. Don't take anything for granted. You must be shown. 11. Don't go into anything you don't understand. 12. Don't pay your money to anyone except a duly elected or credited Officer of the Association. 13.

Don't sell your property or anything you have without first seeing and knowing that you are going to profit by it. Look out and don't allow self-seeking Officers or members to sell the Organization's property to buy others, so that they can make a commission for themselves.

Bulgarian Tea is a great blood tonic just a few doses of Bulgarian Herb Tea and you begin to feel your health improve. If you are tired, weak, nervous with no appetite or lack the energy and vigor to perform your work ... don't wait another day... get some Pop in you and feel 10 to 9 years younger. 17.

THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.I.A. DIVISIONS NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA Support for Steamship Co. Long before the hour set for the meeting had arrived, a large and enthusiastic crowd had gathered in our Liberty Hall, and by the time the meeting was called to order there was not even standing room. The motor corps, Black Cross nurses and legions stood at attention while the choir marched in singing "From Greenland's Ice Mountains." Every one was struck by the fine military bearing of the units. The prayer of the organization was solemnly repeated, after which the president, Prof. I. S. Chambers, addressed the crowd. He thanked the members and friends for turning out in such large numbers to hear one of the greatest orators and statesmen the black race has ever produced, and also to help out the program over. The choir then rendered a beautiful anthem, "Let Us All Give Thanks Unto God." Our worthy president introduced the Right Rev. Dr. Gibson, pastor of the Oriental Baptist Church. Dr. Gibson expressed great pleasure in having the opportunity of addressing so great a gathering of Negroes, who had found out that racial unity and solidarity were the potent factors in the making of a nation. He spoke from Ephesians 5:14, subject: "Awake thou that sleepeth and come from the dead and Christ shall give thee light." The learned Dr. Gibson soundly scored the sleeping preachers for not preaching the true doctrine and also for occupying the pulpits for a mercenary object and not for the good of the race. He also urged the women of the race to practice more morality and fidelity, to the end that the purity of the race may be maintained. In his concluding remarks he urged everyone to stick to the principles of the U. N. I. A. and help to further its advancement. At this juncture the assistant president general, Sir William 'Sherriell, entered, being escorted by the captain of the legions, a heuteman and a private. The president introduced Mr. Wesley Holder, secretary to Sir William Sherriell. Mr. Holder opened up the campaign, one accustomed to such work. With his helpers, well organized he placed campaign busters' tags on practically every man and woman in the audience. The rally was glorious and enlightenable. Sir William was then introduced to the audience, who received him with great applause. After the applause had subsided Sir William began his address, which was as full of inspiration as it was of logic. With much force he urged the people to support the colonization program of the U. N. L. A. and with equal echequence explained that the association had passed through an acid test and emerged 100 per cent perfect. The great task was to get the Negro in a receptive attitude that he might receive the principles of the U. N. L. A. He said that thousands of dollars had been spent by the association for programs to make the Negro love him. By the appended to the audience to lead the presentation and Black Cross Nationalism and Fidelity Committee their moral and social support. Mr. Ausman the Ambassador to the best person to give the Mrs. R. J. Wall, Dr. P. H. H. of support of the Black Cross Nationalism, the award to make a presentation of Dr. J. S. Chamberlain, Dr. J. B. and Mr. Fred D. in the Council. The meeting was brought to a close with a conclusion.

NEGRO WORLD NOTICE Any division of the U.N.L.A. not now receiving the Negro World regularly every week is asked to communicate immediately with The Circulation Dept. Negro World, 80 West 130th St. New York City toreeting shipping secured by the president was concerning the intention and plans of a white shipping company to exploit and market the products of western Africa. A very lengthy list of the products and articles available was itemized, to the astonishment and surprise, of our audience. (Hurry up, Negroes, and launch our Black Cross Navigation and Steamship Company.) The alver-bongued orator, W. A. U. Deane of the San Francisco division, was present and delivered a valuable exhortation on the economie and financial possibilities of the Negro by a consolidation and amalgamation of his forces. Several important statistical facts were brought to our attention by the gifted speaker. A clear and intelligent solution of the Negro's economic and industrial condition was outlined in unmistakable terms and illustrations. A liberal collection was taken to defray the expense of publishing in the "California Volce" an answer to a wicked and malicious attack made on our noble leader, Hon. Marcus Garvey, by Dr. W. E. B. DuBois. The reply published was none other than the answer, of our President-General appearing in the Negro World of May 17. We are fighting propaganda with propaganda, determined that all persons may know the truth. BASSETERRE, ST. KITTS --- June 13.--The meeting was called to order at 5 p.m. by our president, W. J. E. Butler, in the usual manner, followed by the reading of the Hon. Marcus Garvey's message. This was received in the usual way. A chorus was rendered by the audience. "Onward Christian Soldiers." Mr. John Whytt gave us a reading which explained the patriotism of a son of Scotland. The president asked the audience to be patriotic toward the cause Afric, even as that son of Scotland was. Mr. Nathan Hendrickson gave a brief speech. The choir then rendered "O, Africa Awaken." Mr. Stanley Clarke, the next speaker, took for bll. topic "Love." He explained the many excellent things that love dominates, and eloquent the audience to keep in harmony and love with each other. Mr. Charles Thompson also gave an illustrious speech on Loyalty. A duet was rendered by Messrs. Stanley Clarke and Eric Glastford. "Blest be the tie that binds." Mr. Arthur Longols, our most radical speaker, spoke next. He kept the audience spell-bound throughout his entire speech and asked them to say anything of their race in the face of heaven or hell. A trio was rendered by Misses Lillian Joseph and Uncle Jeffers and Mr. Stanley Clarke. "Star of Promise." Mr. Lewis, our last speaker, gave the finishing touch. The speeches were all greatly received, and a few comments from our president brought a pleasant meeting to a close at 5 p.m. CTRIL H. MANNING. Pro Secretary GEORGETOWN, DEMERARA Under the able leadership of our esteemed president, Mr. C. Henry, the Louisiana chapter, Division No. 133, is making rapid progress. The members are enthusiastic and willing to do their best for the redemption of the motherland. We are extremely grateful for the help and the cooperation given us by the Parent Body and we mean to stand to the association, come what may, on Tuesday evening, the 23rd of May, the members and friends of Lacoytown division turned out to witness the inauguration of the charter. The hall was tastefully decorated with the colors, the Red, Black and Green. Several delegates from the Charleston division and 81 Chapter division and the British Guiana labor union were present. Prof. B. A. Osborne took the chair and conducted the meqing in a most climatic way. He delivered a wonderful and eloquent address which went straight to the hearts of the audience. Several addresses were given and enthusiastically received, after which the chairman called for the unveiling of the charter. The charter, which was mounted in a beautiful frame and also decorated with ribbons of the association's colors, was then officially presented to the division. We take this medium of thanking Brother J. B. Harris, who made the frame for the charter. The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the anthem. MONTREAL, CANADA Under the administration of our esteemed president, Mr. Trotter, things are moving rather smoothly in this division. Several plans are under way to improve the social condition of our people, but lack of funds tends to impede the progress of the efforts put forth. However, nothing seems to chill the optimism of the president. In a recent meeting Mr. Potter reviewed the political situation in Canada. The dominant note of his address was the need of Negro centralization in Montreal in order to secure political recognition. He concluded by saying that the white man will recognize one Negro who needs assistance but he would not give consideration to the race as a whole or to any group of Negroes who may call upon him for help or consideration of their grievances. Mr. Potter's address was well received. The following is the program rendered: Selection, orchestra; recitation, Miss Knight; flute solo, Mr. Sealy; remarks, Mr. Dean, Thwaites; selection, choir; address, Mr. Potter. The meeting was closed with the singing of the Ethiopian anthem.

The meeting was called to order at 4 oclock p.m. with the president in the chair and opened with the singing of the ode "From Greenlands Ice Mountain," followed by prayer led by the chaplain, Mr. McAdory. The president gave a very interesting talk on the objects and aims of the association and then requested the secretary to read the telegram from the president-general to the members of the Ida May division, which was received with great aplause. A splendid program was arranged and rendered. The program was as follows: Welcome address by Mrs. Lillie Reid, Recitation by Henrietta Kelley, Recitation by Jordan Jones, Recitation by R. West, Recitation, "Our Eternal Home," by Eva Kelley, Recitation by Silveren Wright. Song by three juveniles. Quartette. Reading by Wm. Timerson, "The Redemption of Africa."

The offering was then lifted. The Rev. W. E. Cook, vice-president of the Farmington Division No. 47, gave a very interesting address, which held the attention of the audience from the start to the finish. Then followed the Rev. G. A. Dalvis, president of the Farmington Division, who made a short but very forceful talk on the organization. We had with us the Rev. A. D. Culpa from the Monongah Division No. 306, who also delivered an inspiring address. The meeting was brought to a close with the pronouncing of the benediction. EGG HARBOR. NEW JERSEY On Friday, May 23, Egg Harbor Division opened its series of meetings for the purpose of raising funds for the African program. Lady Hendretta Vinton Davies and Mr. Arden Bryant were the principal speakers at these meetings, which were well attended by the members, friends, and also enemies of the movement. Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis became slightly indisposed but nevertheless she convinced us that she was one of the greatest women orators in our race. Mr. Arden Bryant delivered wonderful addresses, which held his audiences spell-bound and did much to convince the sceptics that the U. N. L. A. was the only association to solve the problem with a practical program. We have to thank the Atlantic City Division and the Pleasantsville Division for the enthusiastic manner in which they helped to make the meetings a success. One of our members, Mr. Ben Lee, wishes to announce to the members of the U. N. L. A. that the stork paid his home a visit and he is now the happy grandfather of a fine health-girl, who was dedicated to the service of the race, but more especially to that of the U. N. L. A. GREY TOWN. NICARAGUA The Grey Town Division of the U.N. A. held its election of officers on May 15, 1924. The meeting was called in order by Mr. A. Glover, president of the division. The opening ode was sung and followed by prayer. The business of the division being transacted and finished, the president announced the election of officers. Only financial members were eligible for office. The result of the election was as follows: A. Glover, president; Iris Hodgson, secretary; A. Wilson, assistant treasurer; C. Grayham, chairman of the trustees board; Miss Alice Hodgson, lady president; Mrs. Justa Wilson, first vice-president; Miss Anna Chambers, second vice-president. The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the autumn Witnesses Are Heard on Foster-Celler Bills (Lincoln News Service) WASHINGTON. — Heardies have been recently had on the Foster and the Celler bills, H. R. 3225 and H. R. 5564, respectively, to create "commissions" for the studying of interracial conditions in America, and the making of recommendations for the solution of the so-called "problem." Dr. J. Stanley Durke, president of Howard University; Hoh Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General; Col. Giles B. Jackson, attorney, of Richmond, Va.; Prof. Jesse Lawson, president of Frelenghuysen University; Attorney Isaac H. Nutter, of Atlantic City, N.

Mossell Griffin, chairman of the Legislative Committee of the Federation of Colored Women's Clubs; Attorney James A. Neill, of Washington, D. C., and Dr. William N.

We appeal to all for support. W. S. Yaughn, president, 517 Lincoln avenue, Youngstown, O. Mrs. H. R. Barnes, secretary, 1299 Central avenue, Youngstown, O. COMPOSTELLA, VIRGINIA Compostella Division is forgiving ahead and determined to do its best to help put the program over. For the past five months the divisions in Tide Water, Va., have been treated to some excellent lectures from Mr. F. H. Mingolly and Mr. J. H. Elkive of Kamerun, West Africa. Their lectures were full of information and inspiration. We know now more of our motherland than we ever knew before. On each and every occasion that these two gentlemen spoke to the division the hall was packed with an eager and anxious crowd. Our loyalty stands firm, and whatever decree the parent body sends out we are ready to obey it to the head of our ability. Our Race Editors Try to Tote Fair The Indianapolis Ledger in last week's Jesse reminds its readers that it gave them information and warned them time and time again about the pernicious activities of the Klan of the grand old State of Indiana. It calls their attention to the fact that its predictions have come true. It chides them for their misdeed. It bakes "these weak knee Negroes who still contend that things will come at all right." Nexo newspapers make no claim to the Parable of the Snow in the Time Book; "Behold a snowy winter forth sow; and when he swept, some snow fell by the wayside, and the snow came and deserved them, some fell upon snowy places, where they had no much earth, and forthwith they sprang up, because they had no ground on earth; and when the sun was up they were searched, and, because they had no root they withered away, and some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprung up and choked them, but others fell into good ground and brought forth fruit." There are all sorts of responsibilities good, bad and indifferent. Some are advice worth following; others on most cases uninterested also give advice that it would be better for the race not to follow. But in most cases our papers are competent and shower their highest amity to guide the race right. Notwithstanding, they have the same experience as the driver in the parable, so much of the really good, sound, well-mean advice falls on poor sell and among themes and on rocks. The real editor feels his responsibility to get the facts about his people, to study the conditions, to watch the tendencies, then to think all over, to analyze it all carefully, to draw correct conclusions; and then out of his interest in his people and because his position and study have qualified him to speak with confidence and courage, he publishes the facts, he advises his people, and, if necessary, he warns them. He does this over and over, and he must continue to so do. Doubtless if the race had headed its newspapers, it would have been much farther along in every way. The Ledger has plenty of company. While race papers have reasons to rejoice, still the weak knee brother is a provoking article and it takes a lot of patience to keep punching him in the ribs and whispering in his ears to wake him up to a saving sense of his condition and his duty.

East, Corresponding Secretary of the Foreign Board, Spent Two Months in Liberia and Tells of Richness and Needs of the Country The Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention decided to launch a new program of industrial mission in its endeavor to help evangelize the millions of our heathen brothers and sisters in benighted Africa. After carefully choosing seven of the best workers they could secure, their secretary, Rev. J. E. East, was sent out with them to Liberia to visit their mission stations in West Africa to study conditions, to secure a large tract of land, and to launch an industrial school in the most suitable place that could be obtained. Rev. East reports as follows: We reached Monrovia on the thirteenth of February and landed with all the missionaries in the best of spirits, the voyage having been a most pleasant one. It was gratifying to see the Negro republic with its president and all officials, men of color, the chief justice, the judge, jurors and all the attorneys' black men, the soldiers with all the officials of the army men of the Negro race. Some of these were born in America and have gone out recently. Most of them are descentants of America-Liberian colonists, who left here seeking an acylum where they could enjoy the highest rights of freedom and develop in an atmosphere of liberty without hindrance by prejudice of other races. While they have regretted may and no incurring a compulsion is manufactured, yet they must be highly congratulated for having held their own in the face of hostile and barbarian natives who have often attacked them in overwhelming numbers within the Republic; while their powerful neighbors, the French and English colonies, have more than once threatened their very existence. Let us thank that somehow the republic exists until this very day to the credit of the few American Liberals, who, through great bravery and sacrifice and the shielding of much blood, through prayer and diplomacy, have preserved in our little soil an ally to our equal people of color, especially the American Negro. There may be something to criticism but there is certainly more to praise in the Liberal government. The constitution of the republic is formed after our Constitution here. They have a certain law for the welfare and happiness of the citizens. These laws are enriched with justice and freedom to all the factions could be, even in our best hope.

S. A. dance of valuable oil which is a great food product for the people of West Africa. It is one of the greatest exports. Nature has already planted these trees and each year they yield abundant crops. All that is necessary is the reaping, preparing for food and putting on the market. There is not nearly so much work in this preparation of palm kernels for food and the market as there is for cotton, while the former may be more valuable. Then the rubber trees and vines exist in varied species throughout many parts of the republic; there are said to be seven varieties. Cotton, corn, rice, watermelons, vegetables and many other farm products grow abundantly in Liberia. We saw a number of beautiful cattle, though of small size, all very fat. It is evident that the breed could easily be improved and a better milking variety could be introduced by cross-breeding. Not one cow did we see milked, nor did we see one drop of milk or home-made butter while in Liberia. Condensed milk and canned butter are imported in large quantities. Mineral Deposits It is also known that there is great mineral wealth in Liberia. It is common to see beautiful gold bracelets, earrings, breast pins and fine finger rings made from Liberia gold. Diamonds and ore are also found there. These valuable mines are yet to be tapped and developed. Along the coast in various places are the American-Liberian settlements. Beyond fifty miles from the coast we have only the natives and very, very little has been done beyond that limit for the spread of the gospel. Liberia has a gold white to harvest with a very few laborers for the Master. The roads for vehicles are very limited. There are not a hundred miles suitable for automobiles, wagons or cars, all told consequently, all traveling must be done on foot. We spent two months in the Republic, constantly on the go from place to place, most always on foot; sometimes making an as much as an eighty-mile journey within two days. It was touching to see the Americas' settlements, with their little children retrograding for want of schools. It was far more touching to see the many native villages and towns not a herald of the Creeks, not a Sunday school, not a day school; while hundreds of little children gathered with their half-children and pleaded that a teacher he also sent to them. Our missionaries in Liberia were found in high spits, much elated over the increase in support they have gotten in recent years. The seven workers we carried out were placed and began joyfully their task of preaching and teaching the gospel. Three thousand, two hundred acres of land were purchased. Our industrial school was launched with eight competent work- are in charge. Who fusing building material, blockmaking stuff, on other articles were taken to the app, and an honest beginning was made of our Suang Mission to establish our industrial school. Before leaving, eighty-six boarding students, mostly from raw human, had overcrowded the Little Mission, and still heathen parents, came up every path leading, toward the school, bringing their children. It was indeed, and so see those half-child people coming from their distant villages leading the Little children to the institution, only to be told, "We have no more room. The children are now sleeping on the floors. Wait until we make further preparations and then we will take your children." They could not understand that. Our board is doing mission work at seven different points in the Republic of Liberia. We have twenty-one paid workers on the job in addition to those at the central school. We have a fine school at Grand Basas, which is also industrial. It was most encouraging there to see the beautiful coffee farms, the students' working in the printing shops, the large amount of rice that had been recently reaped, and the beautiful fat cattle walking about the school grounds. At that institution we have three hundred acres of land, and it is our hope to do more industrial work there. Their cry was for more fresh blood, for more missionaries from America. We have returned with greater hopes of Africa's redemption than ever. Let us save Liberia and that will be our best argument to the world that other doors of Africa ought to be opened to us, and that the black man can do something if only given a chance, for he is given the opportunity is Liberia to demonstrate his ability along all lines. CENTRAL MACARENO; CUBA Our division had an election of officers on Sunday, May 11.

PROVEMENT ASSOCIATION IN THE UNITED STATES ARE AND DEMONSTRATIONS. ALL MEMBERS ARE ALSO INV NEGRO IMPROVEMENT AS NEGRO IMPROVEMENT A THE PARADE AND DEMONS SAL NEGRO MAR MARCUS GARVEY, President-General A DEMOCRATIC ESTIMATE OF MR. COOLIDGE New England Puritanism His Background - He Knows the Political Game and How to Work It to His Advantage Editor of The Negro World believes that the readers of the paper, without regard to their partisan leanings, will read with interest and profit what, the noblest and most influential Democratic daily newspaper in the country thinks of Calvin Coolidge and Charles G. Dawes, the nominees of the National Republican Convention for President and Vice-president. The nation has taken its keynote from the New England Puritan Culture and Morals from the beginning, and it is more largely influenced by it now than by the culture and morals of any other section of the country. Speaking of President Coolidge and General Dawes --- --- CONV THE CLAVE O RTS OF THE WORL D PROTECT RIGHTS OVEMENT GANIZATIONS, CIVIC AND THE NEGRO PEOPLES OF 31st, 1924 of the World. The Progr UNITED STATES ARE REQUESTED ERS ARE ALSO INVITED TO MENT ASSO general not make out Calvin Coolidge as too remote and too unsympathetic to suit the popular taste. The country had had all the hot, moist hand-shaking it could endure. It turned with utter relief to Calvin Coolidge and endowed him with all the antique virtues that are appropriate to the golden age of American memories. He was a quiet man, he was a man who lived simply, he came from a background that is the background of all American history. It was that contrast which made Calvin Coolidge. For whatever the national origins, whatever their creeds or the habits of the people who compose this country, it is from New England of the Puritans that they have taken the touchstone of public virtue. "That does not mean that Calvin Coolidge has all the virtues or that he is 'supremely American' in any such unique sense as Dr. Burton implied. Calvin Coolidge has been an orthodox, ambitious machine Republican all his life. He was the protege of Murray Crane, and history has yet to record any heroic effort on his part to impose the Puritan virtues on the Republican machine. To Mr. Coolidge authority is authority, and whatever has existed very long is very imposing. The Republican party, its organization and its beliefs, are and always have been to him something solid and above question. He climbed up through the party in the regular way, and never at any time has he been tainted with heresy. In the course of his life he has seen much that no Puritan can approve; but never has that broken --- PROPAGANDA the New York World says: "The bones of Mr. Collidge's Puritan ancestors must have shuddered yesterday at the speech of Dr. Burton. For in that frantic rhetorical effort all that is spare and serene and stern in the New England character was overwhelmed in purple extravagance. The man of few words was described in so many words that the convention committee had to edit them down. The man whose habit it is to understate was buried in hyperbole. At the end the dry, quiet, pale man in the White House had sunk beneath the flaming edges of Dr. Burton's masterpiece. "Yet he will survive it, and perhaps even his friendship with Dr. Burton will survive the embarrassment of it. For Mr. Coolidge makes a very genuine appeal to a mood in America which is wider than agreement with his policies or administration for his statesmanship. Mr. Coolidge came into office as the successor to an administration of which the American people down in their hearts are deeply ashamed. It was not only dishonest. It was extraordinarily cheap. It was self-indulgent, loose in its habit, vulgar in its tastes and sorbid in its ideals. The atmosphere which prevailed in the gatherings around Forbes, Fall and Daugherty outraged the feelings of the country. "The accession of Calvin Coolidge afforded a sharp contrast. Here in place of the hand-shaking, back-slapping, lazy-minded gang was a Puritan of the Puritans. It was ice after fever, and the colder the better. You could 14.

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) severed 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 education. 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 interests 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 shall 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. NEGRO POLITICAL UNION LONG LIVE AMERICA !!! his conformity. He has neither the crusading zeal of a Roosevelt nor the convenant faith of a Wilson. "He is, in fact, contented in the place to which he has been called. He is very cool, indeed, so cool that he can restrain quite easily his sympathy and his hope. The troubles of other people do not trouble him profoundly; he has none of Roosevelt's varied generosity and none of Wilson's concern for what will come to men after he is gone. His feet are on the earth, and his eyes recognize the familiar nearby things. He does not stray far afield, and the evidences of things not seen disturb him little. Mr. Dawes's reputation became in ternational when his name was affixed to the report detailing the plan for settling German reparations, in framing which he bore a worthy part. His is in some ways a more colorful personality than that of the head of the ticket. Nevertheless, they go well together. General Dawes is still primarily the financier. The ticket Coolidge and Dawes is consistently conservative. General Dawes "General Charles G. Dawes, selected by the Republican National Convention as President Coolidge's running mate; after Frank O. Lowden's positive declination of the honor, needs no introduction to the country. Pictureque speech and conspicuous deeds have united to make him one of the best-known Americana. Our Women Voters (Lincoln News Service) WASHINGTON. Of the nearly three million colored females of voting age in the United States, slightly more than 800,000 live in the Northern and border States where their votes will be counted in the coming national election. The State of Tennessee leads in this respect, and is followed, in the order named, by Pennsylvania, New York, Kentucky, Maryland, Illinois Missouri and Ohio. Due to the call on industry the colored males of voting age in these same States out-number the females, and our total number of voters will closely approximate 1,750,000. "Up to the time of the war General Dawes was distinguished only as a financier in public and private life. His chief official post had been that of Comptroller of the Currency. The war called him to France, where he exhibited in a new field qualities of energy and resourcefulness which later made him the logical choice for director of the newly formed, federal Budget system. His deliberately adopted resources of sulphurous language advertised the activities of the system as nothing else could have J eS * . 7 * * Be al te Ee ee a ee eee fm oy - ' ee i ‘ Pace ee + ew ea : -f a Z ic = oo - = : eee * aj ae tae ee ae ila eae’ ST .

WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1924 | - a” z coe UR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Bdited by Mis. Amy Jacques Garvey a VERY human being that is born into this world is bora for* FF purpose. The Almighty Creator, in the arrangement o . this earth, made 2 place for each and.every one of us; there fore, it is the duty of every individual, on attaining the age of wis dom, to ask ‘himself or herself the question, “Am I in my righ place, according to the Divine arrangement of things?” The nex great duty of man is to, find the purpose for which. he was created .»: A.woman may be born into this’world for the purpose of mother. ing and.training the President of a nation; another may be born tc * be the wife of a great statesman, whose single word could decide “the destinies of millions of people; yet, these women may be born in very humble-stations in life, but, having 'seized every oppor- tunity that presented itself and done the most trivial and menial " jobs conscientiously and well, they fitted themselves for the big purpose of thrir Tives. : Shirking duties and ignoring opportunities shunt us right off the track of the big purpose, and when we come to the end of our life's journey and ask ourselves the question, “Have I fulfilled my pur- pose in'life?”. That wee, smali*koice within us will whisper, “No, pal,-you left the track years ago.” It is the little particles that form the whole; likewise it is the little things in life, well done, that lead to the goal. One gets very little happiness out of life in living for oneself; the greatest joy in life being the joy of living for others. The sight of happiness makes one happy, and the knowledge vf having con- tributed to another's happiness makes one profoundly happy. It is said that man's duty is to gnan—meaning that each individual owes a duty ‘to his fellow man, that each one of us should contribute something towards the well being of humanity. . It is well, therefore, that at the end of each day, just befores we retire to rest, we should ask ourselves the question, “Have I made my contribution to humagity? Have,l dorie my ditty to my fellow man?” This persotial daily reprimand will help to keep us near our purposs and make our lives worth the living. Christ died that, we should live and enjoy life more abundantly We should so live that mankind can eniay life more abundantly. In this we wonld fulfill eur purpose in life and partake of the joys of living. ‘ | ‘The port, Bailey. clothed hit thought» in beautiful language when he wrote: : .

Ce programme n'est pas seulement pour la génération actuelle il est aussi pour le bien-être des génération futures. Nos regards sont fixés sur un avenir glorieux, un avenir qui nous donne de l'inspiration. Aussi nous fondons une grande espérance sur les hommes experts qui représentent les connaissances intellectuelles et techniques de notre état-major. Ces hommes partiront bientôt pour Liberia oir ils vont poser les fondements d'une colonie dans cette République Noire. Pour l'exécution de ce programme de construction les Négres de toutes les sections du monde sont entrain de concentrer leurs forces et leurs ambitions. En Amérique, dans les Antilles, partout où il a plu à Dieu de nous assigner notre place, le destin nous a préparé pour un service tel que celui que nous sommes appelés à donner à nos frères de race, et en toute probabilité, sans le savoir, nous avons trémoussés à la musique barbare de nos maîtres; nous nous avons soufferts pendant trois cents ans pour absorber une civilisation méritoire et progressive, civilisation dont nous pouvons nous servir aujourd'hui pour la construction et le développement d'une contrée appartenant à la Race. Et puisque nous sommes préparés, préparés par trois siècles de rude préparation, pourquoi ne pas aligner nos forces dans la direction précitée? De nos universités, nos collèges, nos lycées et de nos écoles, enfin, de chaque sphère de l'activité humaine nous devons requisitionner nos hommes et nos femmes pour servir notre Race dans les différentes branches, les branches les plus importantes, les plus perfectionnées de l'effort humain. Certes, un grand nombre des hommes intellectuels de notre Race dédaignent l'idée d'un Libéria développement, d'un Libéria comme la Nation Négre par excellence. Pourquoi ne pas vouloir une destinée aussi gloticuse pour notre Race? Pourquoi ne pas vouloit la rehabilitation de la Race quand toutes les indications, comme des signes précurseurs, nous disent que déjà l'Imperial matin commence à huire pour notre Race. Noire? Tôt ou tard ces hommes retardatantes se revelleront à la réalisation que le programme de la Université Negro Improvement Association a pour devoir d'aider dans la construction et dans le relèvement des Nations Noires et Indépendantes; ce programme, disons-le, est le seul apte à résoudre le problème compliqué de la Race Noire. Nous voulons avoir le pays de Libération en bonne voie de progrès intellectuel, commercial, industriel et agricole; un Libération où la Race Noire trouvera sa rehabilitation. Les 100,000,000 de la Race doivent se cohabser pour faire de Libération une nation Noire exemplaire aux yeux des autres nations. C'est en vertu de cette confluence que nous avons en nous-même, c. a. d. dans la Race qui aujourd'hui encore la Universal en appel à l'immagination à l'ambition et à l'activité de ces millions qui font profession de la foi prouce de par ses "leaders." Nous avons besoin des hommes industriels, des gens de peine, des gens frugales de notre Race pour être en Libération et en devenir partie intégrante de ce pays qui est entram de notre son évolution. Nos ingrédients et nos experts ne quèrent portent en quelques jours pour commencer l'oeuvre de construction pour pouvoir accommoder les négociations colons qui l'asseont New York abord du S. S. de la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company en mois de September, a. c., à destination de Libéria. Plusieurs millions de dollars doivent être recueillis pour achever l'oeuvre de la colonisation. Les colonies à construire en Libéria seront à l'instar des villes modernes. Pour pouvoir transporter nos congénères il nous faut des navires; à cette fin la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, organisée sous les auspices de l'Association Universelle pour l'Avancement de la Race Négre se charge de la besogne de cueillir les souscriptions, les prêts et autres contributions de chaque membre de la Race qui est en sympathie avec les programme de colonisation comme ânoncé par ailleurs. Nous demandons à chaque membre de souscrire à la vaissé d'emprunt, pour permettre à la Cie d'avoir aux ordres de la première colonie, à la date du ler Septembre de cette année, le premier navire de la marine marchande. Conformément à une annonce publiée dans ce journal, nous voulons de cent préteurs de notre Race pour nous avancer, c. a. d. pour préter à la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company une valeur de $1,000.00 chaque; 200 personnes, aussi à titre d'emprunt pour souscrire chacune la somme de $500.00; 300 souscripteurs à la caisse d'emprunt à raison de $250.00 chaque; 1,000 personnes pour avancer à cette dite caisse contre des obligations garanties par la Cie. une somme de $200.00 par tête, et enfin 5,000 personnes à raison de $100.00 chaque. Ces valeurs en emprunt sont remboursables en deux termes, savoir: par des obligations de cinq ans et de dix ans. Ces dites obligations seront liquidées à l'écheance avec un intérêt de 5 % l'an. Avec cette valeur globale, la Cie. sera à même de se procurer les navires nécessaires pour desservir la route Américaine-Antillienne-Centre Américaine et trans-Libérienne, dans le transport de frêt et passagers nécessaires au développement de Libérira en particulier et de la Race en général. Si vous avez de disponible une somme de $1,000,000, ou de $500,00, $250,00, $200,00, $100,00, prétez la valeur à la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Co. Sans aucun doute vous aurez l'occasion de vous rejouir dans le succès de la plus grande entreprise de la Race. Que tous ceux qui résident en Amérique, que ceux qui habitent les Antilles, et nos con- génères en Amérique du Sud et Amérique Centrale font leur possible pour le relèvement de la Race Noire.

PROGRAMME DE LA COLONISATION DE LIBERIA NOUS DEMANDONS A CHACUN D'AIDER LE GRAND TRAVAIL PAR UNE DONATION Les Negres auront une Patrie appartenant a la Race NOUS AURONS A BATIR QUATRE COLONIES La Universal Negro Improvement Association a déjà entamé son programme pour la colonisation de Liberia. Ces activités comportent la culture et le développement industriel, agricole, économique, intellectuel et social de la sus-dite République Noire, comme la Patrie permanente des Négres qui sont éparpillés dans le monde, étant sans patrie, et conséquentment sans protection, et qui, nonobstant, désirent de vivre dans un pays appartenant à la Race, et où ils pourront bénéficier de la liberté réelle et de la démocratie vraiment digne du nom. La bonne population de Libéria accueillera très favorablement chez elle les Nègres, leurs frères, des États-Unis, des Antilles, d'Amérique Centrale, Amérique du Sud, le Canada qui sont ambitieux, industriels, qui respecteront les lois, et qui veulent s'établir en Libéria et faire partie de la dite nation qui est entrain de faire un remue—ménage dans sa vie économique et industrielle. De la même façon que les Juifs sont en voie de reconstruire et d'instaurer la Palestine, ainsi l'Association Universelle pour l'Avancement de la Race Nègre est entrain d'aider dans l'ocuvre grandiöse de la réhabilitation d'une Nation et d'une Race. La Universal Negro Improvement Association a entrepris l'ocuvre du développement de Quatre Colonies dans la République de Libéria. Le première établissement colonial sera dans la vallee de la rivière de Cavalla. Pour cette destination partiront en quelques jours les avant-coureurs de la colonisation africaine, et au mois de September de cette année les premiers colons laisseront New York. Conformément à son programme de construction la Universal Negro Improvement Association dépensera $2,000,000 dans les travaux de développement et de construction de chaque colonie, pour les travaux publics et autres utilités publiques. A l'heure actuelle l'Association est en bonne voie de recueillir les premiers deux millions pour la construction de la Colonie de Cavalla. Les plans ci-dessous seront exécutés dans la construction de chacune des quatre colonies; la construction de tous les edifices gouvernementaux doivent être sous le contrôle du Gouvernement de la République de Libéria, et toutes les personnes doivent se conformer aux lois du pays.

Chaque membre, chaque ami peut aider à la réalisation complète du succès auquel nous travaillons. Nous devons en même temps nous préparer pour la Quatrième Convention Internationale des Pouples Négres du Monde. Ce Conclave constitue la plus grande réunion dans l'histoire da la Race. Nous attendons des délegués de toutes les parties du monde. Le programme ci-coure en embaisse chaque phase du grand problème par lequel la Race est confrontée. Conque déjà annoncé, la Convention sera en session pendant les 31 jours et 31 nuits du mois d'Aout; et le lendemain de la Convention—le ler jour du mois d'September—partira de New York, à destination de Libéria, le premier steamer de la marine marchande de la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Co., ayant à son bord les premiers colons. Travailons serieusement et assiduent pour le succès de notre programme et pour le relèvement de notre chère et bien-aimée Race. HAITI NOTES ET COMMENTAIRES La Question de Races (Le Courrier Haitien) La société haitienne-pour la ligue des nations a fait publié sa correspondance avec le Département des Relations Extérieurs, où il demande au gouvernement d'inviter le représentant d'Haiti à Genève à prendre position dans la question des races en faveur de la thèse de l'égalité. L'association aurait du être dispensée de faire une telle leçon et le gouvernenient, déjà aurait du comprendre son devoir. Depuis la discussion du traité de Versailles la question de l'égalité des races a été posée par l'empire du Japon. Notre Gouvernement avait il pensé à ce moment à passer des instructions à Mr. Guilband alors notre délégué? Parmi ceux de la question à l'association haitienne pour la ligue des nations se trouvent deux anciens ministres de l'Epoque. Peuvent-ils nous renseigner et nous dire s'ils avaient fait envoyer des instructions à notre représentant? Dans ce cas, le governement actuel serait encore plus unparadoxable de l'avoir pas suivi un tel exemple. Si, d'aventure, les instructions n'ont pas été données, ces membres du Conseil de la ligue vousbrount-ils expliquer les raisons quizout fait crainre d'agir la question à la bathe des ameuirs? Cette question de "L'Equité des Races" a été soulie par le Japon lors du Traité de Versailles. Consultions les documents y relatifs, et listes en même temps L'ouvrage de M.

THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Oh, Yes; We Need Cash And Plenty of It As the Edition of The Negro World: Allow me a few words concerning our preacher, who preaches so much and sings, "You May Have All the World," but Give Me Jesus," and that he has his greatest trouble. We have all of Jesus and the other fellow all the world. That makes it quite hard to get our rights. We must have some of Jesus to treat a man right; so we shall divide it. We want our share of this world's goods as well as our share of Jesus. G. BOOKENBAUGH. He Never Gets Tired Talking About Marcus Garvey To the Editor of The Negro World: I am not a member of the U. N. I A., but I do believe in that great leader, Hon. Marcus Garvey. I don't even g tired of listening to such wonderful opinions when I used to go to big gatherings. I never had much to talk about, but ever since I have been reading The Negro World I have something to talk about, and never get tired of talking about that wonderful leader Marcus Garvey. R.E. KNIGHTON. Dawson, Ga. We Should Fight Harder For African Redemption To the Editor of The Negro World: I know my feeble effort is somewhat late, but I hope not too late. We, the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, have felt the loss of our prince, Sir Robert Lincoln Poston, and language fails us when we try to express how we feel. He knows best. We should fight the harder for our ultimate redemption. JULIUS G. M. PREVILLE, Cristofol, Canal Zone, May 25. To the Editor of The New World, I am a girl only 14 years of age, but oh, dear. I love to think of our dear motherland, Africa, and it makes me glad to think of our great leader, Mar- cus Garvey. I am hoping and trusting that I will live to get to our native land. I feel glad to know that God sent a man who is not afraid to speak and stand up for his rights. May God bless our great leader, Hon. Marcus Garvey. MISS S. LEE KNIGHTON Dawson, Go. To the Editor of The Negro World. It is my desire to draw your attention to the fact that the article appearing in The Negro World of May 3 concerning British treatment of Negro laborers and this Dominican Republic signed "Alert," has been detrimental to the progress of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in this immediate district of San Pedro de Macoris, and more so to this chapter No. 53 of Estate Consulte. It has been my desire with the cooperation of the officers and members to elevate the morals of our chapter as also to preserve the familiarness of the Consulte administration. Mexico BISHOP I. E.

Fourteen-Year-Old Girl Wants to Go to Africa Conditions in the Dominican Republic Bass and Kilbogua, to the end that they have given their every consent for the thorough functioning of said chapter, and have commanded the moral status of our people, brought about by the presence of such an organization; and, further, they have given permission to erect a Liberty Hall with their material assistance to serve our purpose. Pending the erection of the structure, they have been so very kind as to permit us the use of the local theatre for four nights weekly for the functioning of our ideals, for which we cannot but thank them and commend their broad-mindedness. The administrator at Estate Angelina, Mr. Jose Maria Arlarkuro, too, has also given his consent for our functioning on his Plantation. By the foregoing, Mr. Editor, I feel sure that you will be able to judge the minister effects of such an article as introduced by Mr. "Alert"; especially when you note that the majority of our people remain dependent upon the administrators of the various plantations for work. This Mr. "Alert," we cannot say whether he is a friend or foe to the cause. My conviction goes that he is not an active member of our association; hence his idea is to prejudice the minds of the administrators of the various plantations in order to retard the progress of our work for the cause here. In the interest of the cause, which we hold sincerely dear, and the promulgation of the work on these plantations, where our people settle in large groups, we would beg that no such articles sent from St. Domingo in general be published without the proper name of the sender. This would serve to relieve our association of the various embarrassments it encounters, and place us in a better position to know who is who.

N. I. A. To the Editor of the Negro World: I have read The Negro World for some considerable time, and I find that Marvin Gacey has shouldered the greatest burden ever shouldered by a black man for the betterment of his own setting a country and government of our own so that our future have may be spent to our own benefit. Although my capital is very small, my intentions toward this great movement are exceedingly great. I am now coming to the parent body $2 so that my wife and I may become members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. I am making every effort possible to aid this great organization in every respect. Why shouldn't we die for a black country of our own if need be? Our black soldiers have died on the battlefield like flies for white America, and we still have some black folks at home in America fighting for equal rights. I am one for the redemption of Africa. Wants Government Control Of Howard University WASHINGTON, D. C. June 13. (P. N. S.) Federal supervision of June University, through the Bureau of Education, is proposed in a bill introduced in the House last Tuesday by Representative Cramton, Republihan, of Michigan. "The university is performing a very important and effective work of a truly national character." Mr. Cramton said. "The Limited supervision by the Bureau of Education, which I propose, will be helpful. "The appointment of the trustees by the President is a deserved recognition of the institution and is further desirable because of the Federal contribution which the bill authorizes. That authorization is of real importance, the continued welfare of the institution being often menaced by points of order, the appropriations which have been made annually for forty years or more being without statutory authority." birth date THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1984 are wrong you are doubly wrong. . Those are the conditions that Negroes live under. Those are the conditions which prompt and urge Negroes to better their conditions by removing to new and better environments. U. N. J. A. Seeking to Satisfy the The Universal Negro Improvement Association is trying to supply the demand of that now ambition: is trying to supply the demand for this new environment; is trying to supply the demand for this new racial expression which is now being manifested in the actions of Negroes everywhere. Not only are Negroes being circumscribed in legal affairs, but even in the school system. These things are urging Negroes to seek better and larger opportunities somewhere else. In New Orleans where they have a high school system they have taken out of the system their physics and chemistry and higher mathematics and Latin, while they carry the same subjects in the white schools and will not have any principal who contends for exactly the same curriculum that is had in the white schools. The same things obtain in Hot Springs, Arkansas, and they are removing a principal because he fought for having in the Negro curriculum that which the whites have in the IPS school curriculum. Those are simply a few of the conditions that exist in that part of the country where the majority of our people are. Even the Negro who is outstanding and leading cannot speak the truth to his people as he sees it and as he feels it; if he does he jeopardizes his job and runs the risk of being run away from his home, losing his place and his livelihood, and runs the risk of even losing his very life. These conditions Negroes are beginning to see more vividly since the Universal Negro Improvement Association has come on the scene, and, since it has begun to spread its propaganda among the Negroes in all parts of the country, telling them the truth about these conditions and pointing out that if they are to ever right those conditions, if they are to reach that point where they can enjoy exactly those things they are denied in New Orleans and Hot Springs and in all parts of this country, they have got to strike out along other lines and open up a new country of their own and build for themselves educational institutions, and build for themselves a government and everything that government carries with it for the benefit and advancement of themselves as a people. An Opportunity for Bacial Expression An Opportunity for Racial Expression The colonisation program that we are advancing is offering to the Negro an opportunity for racial expression. We have had an opportunity in a small way for individual expression; but the thing the Negro wants now is an opportunity for racial expression. Individual expression helps us but little; individual progress helps us but little; individual advancement helps a race but little. The thing that helps the weakest man in the white race is the strength of his race; the thing that helps the weakest man in the Japanese race is the strength of his race. The Negro Has no Racial Strength The Negro has no racial strength; the Negro can boast of no racial strength, and it is for that reason the Universal Negro Improvement Association looks forward somewhere perhaps it would look to South America if they had the numerical advantage and territorial advantage in South America that they have in Africa; perhaps it would look to America if they had the same advantage; perhaps it would look to Europe or to Asia, but the Universal Negro Improvement Association looks to Africa because in Africa they have the numerical and territorial advantages to establish this gigantic autonomy; to establish this place of government they are looking for, hoping for and working for. Individuals in our race who have made a little progress and advance are in little or no position to help us as a race because they are part of the system that has damned, brutalized and crushed the Negro. The Negro in the South, who is the most advanced, can do and speak least for the race; the Negro who is higher up in the South, his mouth must be closed tightest; the Negro in the South who has made economic progress in the South is the one who can do little or nothing for those of his race who are grovelling in the ditch because the other fellow is watching him—watching for the opportunity to make him leave his business—make him leave his position: to make him leave all that he has worked for and built up Are You Reaching for the Truth? future prospects, happiness in marriage, friends, enemies, success in all undertakings and many other vital experiences by ASTROLOGY, the most ancient, and interesting science of history?

Therefore, this Negro, although he sees and understands the conditions under which his race must tell struggle and work, is afraid to open his mouth in defense of his race and in defense of his people, because it costs (too much). Produce a Higher Type of Negroes Another favorable aspect of this colonization program the Universal Negro Improvement Association has undertaken is that it will produce a higher type of Negro. You must remember that we are not preparing to carry on a wholesale migration of Negroes; we are carrying a selective migration of Negroes. What does that mean? It means that a higher type of Negroes will be selected; for only those Negroes who have that adventurous spirit, that have that daring and who are not afraid of hard work and are capable of improving themselves in the first place, are going to make application for such a job as we have undertaken. Only Negroes who are not afraid to put on their working togs and carry their tools under their arm and strike out in a new country and build it up and make what other men have made of their country will go. Negroes who are fired with the same blood of the Panjitan fathers; Negroes who are fired with the same blood of the Pilgrims who landed at Plymouth; Negroes who will be fired with that blood and determination which will not let them turn back until they have reached their alim; until they have accomplished their objective, are Negroes who will make up the new colony. The Higher Type of Negro In the second place, all those who make application will not go along. Even in the making of applications there will still be further selection. Only those Negroes who are able to contribute something to Africa in one way or another will be selected from that adventurous, courageous, group that makes application. Then, that means the higher type of Negro The Universal Negro Improvement Association in that light will not only be benefiting the race, but will be benefiting humanity, because the higher type of Negro will give birth to a higher type of ideals, a higher type of culture, a higher type of civilization. It simply means this (as I have said several times before) that the Negro of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is now striving and working to give to the world not a civilization the equal of any civilization that we now see or now enjoy, but a civilization which will be greater than any the world has yet seen, thereby making not only a contribution to the race, but making a contribution to humanity. Mr. Garvey, speaking on the dogan "We Are on Our Way," said Gradually the world is reforming itself. In the reformation each and every one has a part to play. If you were to take stock and pay careful attention to the activities of the different peoples of the world at this time you will find that the Universal, Negro Improvement Association is not so much composed of dreamers after all because indeed, things are coming to pass. Years ago, when we started this great movement, those of us of vision prophesied that there would be world changes, that in the midst of these changes would come the opportunity the chance that we desire. They have not all come yet, but they are gradually coming, and we are on our way. Great Britain has changed within the last five years. France has changed within the last forty-eight hours. The whole world is changing and is traveling our way. On Tuesday by 12 o'clock midnight South Africa will have changed even as England and France have changed South Africa will pass from being one of the strong outposts of the great British Empire, and will be on the way toward an independent republicanism which will ultimately spell the ruin of that section of the Empire. World Change and the Negro All that we had in our minds six, seven, eight years ago when we organised the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It is only a question of patience and organization and preparedness and we are bound to get where we want to go. As the world has changed wifftim the last five years, so will the world change in another ten years, so will the world change in another twenty years, so will the world change in another fifty years. And those peoples, especially the oppressed. who have yonl and forsight enough and who have organization, will ultimately walk into those changes that they have dreamed about, that they have organized for, that, they have worked for, and with very little resistance. Progarsa for the Scramble The greatest instrument today for world-control is organization. And I am glad that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has not faltered on the way, but year by year we have been building up a stronger organization to meet the exigencies of the times. Let m tell you, men and women of Liberty Hall, let me tell you, Negro men and women in the world over, the hour is drawing near for Africa's redemption, even without the Negro striking a blow in that direction. It is not even so much of arms that will redeem Africa; it is not so much gunpowder that will redeem Africa. It is organization among Negroes that will redeem Africa. And that is the organization that we are endevouring to build up among the Negro peoples of the world, because Africa, certain parts of Africa, will be going a-begging one of these days, belonging to nobody. Anybody can occupy, because everybody will be engaged. I have a vision, and you may call it that of a lunatic, or I have a vision that in another fifty years the West Indies and Africa, as far as colonial possessions are concerned, are not going to belong to anybody; it will be a scramble for anybody that wants it. And this is why we are getting ready for the scramble, because we are going to be in it. We don't want to kill anybody, to tight anybody. Get ready, keep ready, get organized, and you will pick up something of these days. What Japan Says What Japan Says If I understand the papers correctly, Japan is all up in the air now. And Japan is talking loud, so loud that they have to be organizing a proper system of suppression, suppressing the newspapers because they are talking too much. You know what Japan has said within the last fornight? Japan has said openly in the press of Kokio that the time has come for Japan to line up Asia and call in all Africa. (Applause.) And Marcus Garvey did not say that. The press of Japan said that this very week. Last week they said that. Marcus Garvey did not say that, but Marcus Garvey "cursed" that six years ago. And that is why he brought into line the Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Applause.) Something is going to happen. You are not going to writ it, but you are going to finish it. We are not troubling anybody. We are too helpless and too weak and too poor to interfere with anybody or start anything, but we know the world is getting ready to start something that only four hundred million Negroes can finish. Look out France has gone into the hands of the socialists. England has gone into the hands of the workingmen. Germany is already in the hands of the socialists. You know what that is going to lead to? It will lead to a world upheaval, a world upheaval between capital and labor, between socialism on the one hand and the philanthropy on the other, and when all these regimes start to fight you look out and get your share that is all. Don't start anything, but keep ready to pick up what is going by. And if you keep ready there will be lots to pick up down in Africa and in the West Indies, too. Uncle Sam is going to keep his hands off, and so long a fifteen million of us are still here we are going to play that policy that we see that Uncle Sam keeps his hands off. If anything is going a beginning in the West Indies, Uncle Sam will help us pick it up anyhow. Another Ten Years Something is on the air. Don't be discouraged, boys. Another ten years will tell the tale, will tell the tale of a tree and independent India, will tell the tale of a free and independent Canada, will tell the tale of a free and independent Australia, will tell the tale of a free and independent South Africa. Everybody is going to scramble for himself and you get ready wherever you are to scramble for the things you want. And I am not going to tell you what you want, you know it more than I do. All you have to do is to keep in good form, keep organized. What we are doing today as an organization was not made possible by Marvin Garvey and two or three people, but is made possible because we are a powerful organization in this country. There are things we can get today, cars that we can reach today, that if it were for Marvin Garvey alone, never could have been gotten, never could have been reached. But because of the tremendous motive power of this organization, of six million men and women who are dedicated to one purpose, one supreme object, that is why the Universal Negro Improvement Association is being talked about not only in America, but in Europe. U. N. I. A. Still a Puzzle Continental Europe talks and thinks more about the Universal Negro Improvement Association than you think about it. Not the Internationale, not the Socialist movement, not even the non-co-operationist movement of India, but the movement of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is the coming movement of the world. They have reckoned with Socialism already; they have reckoned with the Internationale already; they have reckoned with the non-co-operationist movement already, but they do not know yet to what extent they have to reckon with the coming movement of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that is backed up by four hundred million black men and women in the world over. (Applause). We are having now the ear of Europe and we are going to have it more. We are having the ear of this country and we will have it more, because we have not yet given our platform and presented our program entigly to those who should know about it. We will do it this year. August of this year will be the biggest month and year in the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. This year we are going to change world opinion.

For Framing and Hanging in the Home, With His Autograph Signature, the Only Official Picture in Circulation With Copyright the other day, in commenting on one or two items, that we gave out to be discussed at the convention, said among other things, that the Negro was always willing to accept everything as it is and never attempted any originality, and it is surprising now to see they are contemplating, discussing the idealization of a God of their own race. That is a big thing. You hardly imagine how far around the world that thought has gone. The white man knows the gravity of it. He feels and understands the meaning of it. And we are going to discuss a programme in Liberty Hall in August that is going to revolutionize the thought of the whole world as far as the Negro goes. In this very hall we are going to selfy a Man of Sorrows looking like ourselves. You know what that means. It means this: That we are going to make Jesus look like us. It simply means that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has led the Negro to the point now where he has created his own ideal and refuses to accept the ideal of others. That is going to create a world revolution that was impossible five years ago. But it is not impossible now because of the authority and strength of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. A Right to Lead The Universal Negro Improvement Association leads and has a right to lead at this time because it represents a larger group of thinking Negroes than any other movement in the world. We are bound to lead, and lead in a manner and way of giving directions to the rest of those who must follow, and we have been followers and nothing more for the last 300 years and without the proper leadership. We started out after emancipation to follow a false leadership that had ideals that were not of our own making, and church and State and all of us followed in that direction for long years until we have reached this point where we have become the laughing-stock of the world. But the Universal Negro Improvement Association assumes the authority, the sovereignty to redirect the mind, the vision, and the ideal of the Negro, and as white men have misused us for fifty years since emancipation in America, for eighty odd years since emancipation in the West Indies, for 300 years in this western world, the Universal Negro Improvement Association is going to take a decided and definite stand in seeing that the Negro is properly led for the rest of eternity. (Applause). Call it presumption, call it what you may, it is as much the right and authority of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to give a system and a code to the Negro race as it was the right of the white people in days of yore to give a system to their race and to give to their race a code by which they should be guided and led. It was not God Almighty who directed, in all things, the affairs of men. It is not God Almighty who has built up all these human ideals. The ideals that men worship today and foster today, these ideals that lead the world, that direct the human race, were created and built up by men in ages past, and we have as much right now in the twentieth century, to build our own ideals as they did in ages past. Cuta Both Ways The critic asks why Garvey wears a red robe. Marcus Garvey flings back the retort, "Why does the Pops wear a red robe?" "Why does the King of England wear purple robes?" The same authority that made them wear robes indicative of the spirit of their movement is the same authority that leads Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. (Applause.) Man's authority in things temporal reaches no higher than man, and since man is the creator of human ideals, and white men have created such ideals for the guidance and leadership of their own people, we as Negroes have as much right to create such ideals within the twentieth century, if not earlier. Man has taken upon himself the right and the pre-operative to idealize a god in his own emblance, and since man has taken upon himself the right to idealize a man of sorrows in his own physique, countenance and semblance, and since we did not know better when we standard the gallion and made the mistake, now, that we know better, we will correct the mistake. (Applause.) God Is a Spirit God Is a Spirit The editor of the New York World is crazy if he thinks that after all this schooling we have had on this side of the Atlantic and which we paid for so clearly, he is going to tell us that we must continue to worship the idea of a white God and white Jesus, since they have made them so. The books we have studied from did not tell us Jesus was a white man. The books we have studied from did not tell us God was a white man. They said God was a spirit, a divine, mighty, omnipotent spirit. But since whites are seeing him through the eyes of whiteness, we are going to see him through the eyes of blackness. (Uproarous applause.) And any white man, who think Marcus Garvey should not do that, he had better go down himself in the Hudson river, because Garvey is not going to change his mind, until they change their minds. God is with us with all peoples. God is love. God white can have the white part. We will have the black part. (Loud again as much black as he is white. He is divided up into many parts.

LAND OWNERS' COVENANT AND CURTIS CASE Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia Upholds the Right of Property Owners Not to Sell to Negroes THE LAW IN THE CASE The decision of the Court of Appeals in the case of Corrigan et al. vs. Buckley, generally referred to as the "Curtis case," was delivered by Mr. Justice Van Orsel on Monday and is printed in full elsewhere in this issue. As this case is likely to be far reaching in its effects, it is to be hoped that its scope and effect will not be misconstrued nor misunderstood. The sum and substance of the decision is that a covenant whereby the owners of certain parcels of land agree among themselves that none of them will sell, convey, or lease any of such land to a Negro is not invalid as contrary, to the provisions of the United States Constitution, nor void as against public policy. In so far as the decision holds that the covenant therein described is not within the inhibition of the Constitution, it seems to be agreed by lawyers generally that it is in accord with the great weight of authority on that point. It has been held by the Supreme Court of the United States in a number of cases that the 14th Amendment, invoked by the defendants in the Curtis case, applies exclusively to action by the State and has no reference to action by individuals.

C. SALTUS, Advertising Dept. in the Curtis case, however, has not been before the Supreme Court of the United States; but, in the only Federal case directly in point (Gandolfo vs Hartman), such a command was held to be repugnant to the 14th Amendment; and, as this was the case relied upon by the defendant's counsel, it is to be regretted that no reference was made to that decision by the learned Justice in his opinion. Nevertheless, we have nothing to gain by a lack of candor and fraakness in the discussion of matters of public interest and we must therefore admit that not only the greater number, but, as it appears to us, the better regarded cases, which have dealt with the subject hitherto, are in accord with the opinion in the Curtis case so far as the Constitutional question is inolved. But, as far as the court holds that such a contract is not contrary to public policy, the decision is more open to question. Of the cases relied upon to sustain this point, Queenborough Land Company vs. Caseau (a Louisiana case) was based upon a construction of statutes in a system derived from the civil law, whereas, in this jurisdiction, questions of public policy are settled upon principles of the common law of England, as modified by statutes and the customs of our country. The two other cases cited in support of his opinion by Mr. Justice Van Oradel are Koehler vs. Rowland (a Missouri case), and Los Angeles Investment Company vs. Gary (a California case). In the latter of these a sharp distinction was made between covenants designed to prevent the USE AND OCCUPANCY of lands by and those designed to prevent TRANSFER OF TITLE to Negroes. This distinction seems to have been entirely overlooked by the learned Justice who wrote the decision in the Curtis case. In the Gary case, the California Supreme Court distinctly said: "The condition that the property be not sold, leased or rented to one not of Caucasian blood is clearly a restraint on the alienation.....and is, therefore, repugnant to the interest created by the deed.....The condition, however, that the property should not be OCCUPIED by persons not of Caucasian birth is in a different category. It is not a restraint upon the ALIENATION (transfer of title or sale), but upon the use of property." This distinction may be of no practical moment as far as the property, or rather properties, that gave rise to the controversy of which the Curtin case is one are concerned; still it seems to us that the force of the declaration is lessened by the failure of the court to take notice of the distinction between attempted restraints upon ALIENATION and -those upon the USE to which real property may be put. The difference is substantial and important and has been expressly recognized in many cases. In the California case, the Supreme Court of that State calls attention to this distinction and approves a case in that State where the precise question involved in the Curtis case was treated with elaborate and apparently unanswerable legal logic, and where the court reached a conclusion entirely at variance with the conclusion of our Court of Appeals. Unfortunately, this case (Title Guranty Trust Company vs. Garrott, 153 Pacific Reporter, page 411), does not seem to have been called to the attention of the court in the Curtis case. Just what effect it might have had upon the minds of the learned justices of the Court of Appeals we cannot say. It may not have appealed to them as it does to us, as unanswerable in its legal logic. In the Garrett case the Supreme Court of California expressly notifies the Queensborough Land Company and the Kochler cases as being "the only cases which have come under our notice where the courts have passed directly upon a condition in a deed such as that now before us"; and of them it says: "As we are constrained to disagree with each of these cases, a somewhat more elaborate presentation of the reasons for our conclusion is demanded than ordinarily would suffice." After an elaborate review of the authorities and an extended history of the rise and growth of the doctrine announced, the court concludes, "for these reasons, we hold that the conditions against alienation (i.e. to any person of African, Chinese or Japanese descent) is a condition repugnant to the few simple estate created by the grantor of the deed and is . . . void." It is difficult for a popular organ to discuss the intricate questions involved, but we refer the curious minded to the cases above noted, which were relied upon by the Court of Appeals, and to which we have adverted. It is to be hoped that the decision will not be allowed to stand unchallenged. It is impossible to predict the practical results that will flow therefrom. Conditions in the real estate market are controlled by the laws of supply and demand. Changes in neighborhoods are more the result of fluctuations due to normal and natural growths of the community than to decisions of courts. The efforts of individuals to limit and restrain, according to their whims and prejudices, the alienation of land are generally abortive. We feel that the worst evil to be expected from the decision is the lowering of the morals of our group. Rightfully or wrongfully, it has long been the impression of the Negro that his rights are not as jealously guarded by the courts as they should be; and it is to be regretted that a decision so contrary to the hopes of so large a part of the community should not have been based upon more persuasive legal reasoning. Those of us who know from long experience that the courts of the District of Columbia are religiously zealous to do even handed justice between litigants regardless of color are always ready, willing, and anxious to justify decisions that are distasteful to our own people.

It is to be regretted also that the learned justice who wrote this decision, went outside of the issue to discuss questions not therain involved. For, while at the outset the opinion stated: "We are not dealing with the validity of a statute or municipal law, or ordinance," fully one-third of the opinion, if not more, is taken up with a discussion of those matters. And just what legal or logical connection the question of "social equality" can have with the rights of individuals to impose restraints upon the sale of real property, it is hard to see. Yet the learned justice takes occasion to remind us, "Nor can the social equality of the faces be attained either by legislation or by forcible assertion of assumed rights." "As he had previously pointed out, no question of legislation was involved; and we are at a loss to understand the reference to "forcible assertion of assumed rights." May it not be that at point at least, the learned justice himself "misconceived the real question herein involved?" LAST OF DELEGATES WHO HELPED NAME LINCOLN The Cleveland Convention Did Not Care to Listen to the Old Man; Talk About the Great Emancipator and Days of 1860 THE OLD ORDER CHANGES By HEYWOOD BROUN In the New York World CONVENTION HALL, CLEVELAND, June 10—When Theodore E. Burton made his keynote speech for the Republicans this morning he waved every now, and again, as emotion lagged, the name of Lincoln. And then he was done, and after a little while there came on the platform a man who had seen Lincoln and known him. Addison G. Proctor of St. Joseph, Mich., in the last living delegate who voted for Lincoln, when he was nominated by the Republicans in 1560. He Every Man Who Has L Force of Y Scientist Makes Wonderful Disco Years Shout A new discovery is said to have been made by a scientific study of Serbian mountain people who, scientists say, live longer than any other people.

His soldiers stalled but he waited with high head and did not need the arm offered by one of the convention clerks. Mr. Proctor stopped beyond the amplifiers, for those had not been known at that other convention. Mr. Burton stared him into place and the voice of the old man rose loud, strong and impassioned, for his spoke of slavery and of how he and his fellows had decided that it must go no further. "We wanted to save the West," he cried, and flung out his hand to indicate some distant horizon beyond the last row of the deep convention hall. It seemed as if this was again the year 1860 in the mind of the last delegate. He spoke of Lincoln as a man who lived and not as a framed, portrait perched upon the bunting back of the platform. He explained why Seward would not do, and again he cried out, "We had to save the West," and thrust out his hands. A curious thing happened. The delegates who had sat through Burton's long speech began to wriggle and to rustle. It was time for lunch and many got up to go. The feet of the old man were firmly-set back beyond the half-century mark. Nineteen twenty-four was not interested in 1880. It was only too evident that nothing pertinent was in the mind of the man of memories. No Application to 1924 From the name of Lincoln he would draw no moral of the evils of reckless investigation in the matter of oil lands. And when he spoke of saving the West he had no thought of the protection of sound business threatened by the raids of radical agitators. He wanted to make the picture step out of the gold frame. It seemed to be within his hope to resurrect the dead ladder and set to marching down the aisle in the full light of day a tall gaunt figure. That would have been interesting. For if the figure from the game had left the wall and walked into the convention he would have passed, quite closely, John T. Adams. And then if he proceeded straight ahead he might have brushed by Burton, who had spoken well of him. The Speaker Concludes man who m. Joseph, te who nomi- d. He Down from the platform and up the aisle and at his elbow sat Henry Carbot Lodge. It might have been necessary for the gaunt man to stoop a little in order to see the Senator from Masse- chusets.

Murray Butler was beside him Wideworth Street, Longworth, Battersea, Worth and all the glams among his fellow Republicans. The clerk upon the platform plucked at the sleeve of Addison G. Prostor and whispered to him. Evidently the clerk mumbled that it was not necessary to go on and tell precisely what sort of a person was this Lincoln. It was enough to have mentioned the name. The speaker nodded. He stood with both hands outspread. "It had to be Lincoln," he said, "because we knew that we needed somebody bigger than all the others." Again the clerk plucked at the sleeve of Proctor, and the delegates laughed at the old man who wanted to talk about a living Lincoln. They applauded, but they edged toward the door at the same time. Proctor stopped and Burton patted him on the back and said he had done nicely. He reassured the man who knew Lincoln that he had talked just the right length. He pointed out that it was almost lunch time. But he forgot to add that anyhow this was a convention that was going to nominate Calvin Coolidge. 798 598 898 10 DAYS FREE TRIAL YOU SAVE 60% SEND NO MONEY Just name address and number of watch wizard Punjab, India.

UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION RAISING FUND OF TWO MILLION DOLLARS FOR BUILDING FIRST COLONY IN LIBERIA EVERYBODY ASKED TO HELP WITH A DONATION 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 may 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 sober-minded, industrious, law-abiding, 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: BUILDING PLANS Government Post Office.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1924 The Bishop of Accra Has "the Most Difficult Diocese Imaginable," Says the Archbishop of Canterbury NATIVE SCHOOLS NEEDED (From the Gold Coast Leader) On Wednesday, April 8, at the evening of Lent Service at Christ Church, the pulpit was occupied by His Lordship the Bishop of Accra, when he delivered an important message to an overflowing congregation, basing what he had to say upon the text, "Cast thy bread upon the waters and thou shall find it after many days." Probably Bishop Agilobyh had no idea or intention of laying down a policy for the future working of the Anglican Church, yet there was such a deal of practical decisions which cannot be otherwise described than, as the decided policy of the Church. In opening his discourse, he said that it must be an important day for a congregation to meet for the first time their new Bishop; and he was delighted to be among such a congregation. Continuing, he said, that the autumn chosen was most appropriate for the occasion, and the rendering of the Choir had been very good. He had the novel experience of what he said being interpreted. When appointed Bishop the Archbishop of Canterbury had written a letter to the press to the effect that this was one of the most difficult dioceses, imaginable, and before he took up the appointment he had been filled with anxiety as to the prospects before him. The Gold Coast was one aid a half times larger than England and was said to contain 2½ million inhabitants. For his work in this field he had only three European Clergy and four African Priests and one Deacon to help him. Two of the Europeans, he went on to say, were going on leave soon, so that he would have only one European and four African priests and one Deacon for the work. Before he left England he had issued an appeal for £1,200 with which to pay the stipends of the three European clergymen for a year and to cover their passages, and he had instituted an association in which was included the Archbishop of Wales, the Bishop of London, and the Bishop of Winchester, who were going to do the best they could for the Gold Coast disease. Before going on leave His Excellency the Governor had promised that all the Europeans in Acora would give him all the help in their power. The Acora African Communists had also promised the sum of £165 to support one African Priest for one year. The Commissarie Church had promised £75, Taurach £30 and Secondee £75 respectively, for the support of one African Priest each for one year. Moreover, the Europeans at Secondee had also promised to give the best help they could. And there was a question he would ask the Cape Coast Church before he had done. Looking through the window, he could see the little children caining their necks to see what was going on. So he we must start with the infant. He hoped to start an Infant School chart's where the children would be taught. He had asked the Priest-in-charge to take him to their Primary School. He had been informed that there was none. That was a need that must be supplied. In the S. P. G Grammar School the Church had a valuable asset, but there must be a Girl's High School to match with the S. P. G Grammar School, and he had arranged for sisters to come out to start the Girls' Secondary School by September next. Then there must be provision for the still higher training of the pupils. When at Coomassie he was taken to a field where he was told that he must be careful of the serpents, but that that same field would be the site of the future college. However, a beginning must be made at once, and he proposed releasing a portion of a fund in hand of £1,400 in building up infant school at Coomassie, which would relieve the present building used for the infant school and make it available for the starting of the college work for the training of the clergy and teachers. He now asked the question what would the Cape Coast Church do to help him? He intended ordaining four priests to help on the work, and if boxes were put up with the three words, "for the priest" on them and the 500 communicants at Cape Coast subscribed a penny extra regularly for a given period, they would enable him to provide for the priests that he was about to ordain; and he emphasized the appeal by the text, "Cast thy bread upon the water." We welcome Bishop Agilton to the field Coast diocese, and we are pleased that so early in his charge the question of education has been so warmly taken up by him. It is but right that we should start with the infanta, a part of educational work which hitherto has not received the emphasis which it deserves. And we should like, to see a departure made by His Lordship in the quality of primary education that will be given in the schools of the Anglican Church. With the training given at the S. P. G. Grammar School at present we have no fault to find; and if Bishop Agilson will aim at providing for our girls the same sound training as is provided at the S. P. G. Grammar School, he will be helping in laying the foundation for the cultured womanhood of the Gold Coast. For ourselves we would welcome open competition betweer our boys and girls so that in due course the women can take their stand by the men in life's manifold activities. We trust that the Angloin College will not turn out to be a mere stereotyped institution for the training of the clergy and of teachers; but that it will be a real live institution capable of doing the class of work that being done by the public schools and colleges in England and elsewhere, fitting the pupils for any careers they may select. It ought to be possible for such a college to be affiliated to the London University, and for the pupils to matriculate and proceed to the arts course, and, if possible, take their degrees. The success of the educational work of the Anglican Church in the Gold Coast will depend upon its striking an independent and a broad and liberal course with the primary object of a sound, thorough education. Above all, must we have a thoroughly educated clergy. We publish elsewhere in this issue the circular letter sent to us by the direction of His Excellency the Acting Governor, indicating the difficulties that are said to attend students seeking entrance to the British universities. We should have thought that in an enspire such as ours the gates of opportunity and of culture would be thrown wide open to all members of the Empire, irrespective of creed, race or color, and it may be remarked that it would be a wise policy for the educational authorities in Great Britain to encourage rather than to discourage, the effort of the other races of the Empire, in taking advantage of the cultural opportunities of the seats of learning of the Empire. Be this as it may, the object of the African is to traverse every possible avenue in fitting himself for life's struggle in whatever form it may take. AMERICAN VIEWPOINT OF EAST AND WEST Rabindranath Tagore, addressing a student audience at Tokyo, extended the sympathy of the people of India to the people of Japan now chafing under the "indignity" inflicted by our own exclusion "bifl." The distinguished Bengal poet, feels that it is an indignity visited upon both nations "because Japan and India have much in common of cultural heritage." That is true enough in the sense that a good deal of the culture of Japan may be traced to India via China. "What is not so convincing is the picture drawn of Japan as the champion of Original civilization. This is defined by Tagore is differing radically from Western civilization, which "aims at wealth instead of human happiness," and which is "greedy and purified." Unfortunately, Jagore, without meaning to, is paying tribute to Western civilization. The virtues in Japan which would qualify her to play the champion of Asia against the Occident are Occidental virtues. In culture Japan is not the leader, since her civilization is partly derivative. In population Japan is only one-fifth of China or India, Japanese prestige in the world as based on what are usually assumed to be the non-Oriental factors of military strength, aggressiveness, materialism, organization, "hustle" Modern industrialism, against which Gandhi is waging war in India, has made as rapid progress in Japan as in any Western nation. Of "progress" as fostered in the West and abhorred in the Orient, there is no more remarkable example than Japanese history since Commodore Perry. And it is doubtful whether in the whole range of Western civilization there can be found such a contrast as that revealed between the non-resistance spirit of CANTON SILK HAND BEADED HAND SILK Embroidered DRESS ONLY $3.98 FOR THE NEWEST AMARTISY STYLE OF THE HAND BEADED GRAUINE CANTON SILK Newly embroidered throughout Read Beaded and a beautiful beaded embroidered in silk.

RACE MULTIPLYING RAPIDLY IN CALIFORNIA The Divisidera District Advocate, an independent newspaper, devoted to the interests of the Western addition of San Francisco, carries an editorial by Oscar Ahlers, a part of the propaganda of the Western Addition Improvement Club, who are making a fight on the Negroes of San Francisco. The editorial that we reproduce in another column of the Voice, contains a warning to the citizens of San Francisco. In it he claims that one year ago there were five thousand Negroes in San Francisco, today he says the number has doubled and there are ten thousand according to the report of the Real Estate Board-Race Housing Committee. Nobody knows better than the Negroes themselves that this statement is false. Mr. Ahlers further claims that Negroes are coming to San Francisco at the rate of one thousand per month and that two hundred and fifty Negro newspapers throughout the country are urging the Negroes to migrate to the North and West. Mr. Ahlers claims to be the friend of the Negro. He says that the Negro people are to be admired in trying to better their condition and that they have advanced wonderfully during the last fifty years in America; but in the same breath he asks the question, "What are the people of San Francisco going to do about this situation?" He says the Negroes are crowding into sections of San Francisco where they are not wanted. He says that there are five separate Negro colonies in San Francisco and in these sections of the city they are not wanted. He says that the Negroes are so anxious to get a roof over their heads that they are forced to pay ridiculous prices for homes and are exploited by slippery real estate dealers. He claims that they are slipping into homes in white districts by night and that they buy and pay for places which they have never seen the inside of until they have moved in, and he is saying to the citizens of San Francisco that in the Eastern cities, Mahatma Gandhi and the militant virtues of the Samurai. Some Western observers have made the same mistake of setting up the "Orient" as a model for the peoples of the West; forgetting that there is probably as little unity in Asia as in Europe. Within India the comparative solidarity of national feeling with which great Britain is now confronted is largely of British creation; in a double sense. British dominion has held India together as a physical unit, and, by presenting the people of India with a set of common problems, has encouraged a spiritual unity. Karl Marx pointed out that the industrial system, by bringing the workers together into solid factory aggregations, promoted working class co-operation. Gandhi's crusade against the factories and in favor of the handloom is preached to factory audiences! Among the intellectual leaders of Young Asia, whether in India or China, it is to be noted that along with the traditional protest against Western "materialism" runs a program of action strongly Western in tone. where Negroes come in large numbers, they have a problem and that unless San Francisco is up and about, trouble will brew. This is dangerous propaganda and yet it only goes to substantiate our contention that the Negro is not wanted any where. But that he must contend for his rights as an American citizen, and that he has a right to live anywhere that he has money to buy. But today the Negro is facing a graver problem than the housing problem. Such articles as this tend to inflame the minds of those who, otherwise would be friendly to the Negro and economic pressure is being brought to bear on all elders. We are informed and we know that it is becoming, increasingly difficult for Negroes to be able to finance their homes. Pressure is being brought to bear and we have been informed that some of our large banking institutions are turning down applications for loans by Negroes by the score. Notwithstanding that these same institutions hold thousands and thousands of dollars deposited by Negroes. Shall the Negro sit supinely by and see the door of economic opportunity closed in his face or shall he say to the world. I am a man and being a man I am capable of organizing and maintaining my own institutions founded on sound business basis and I will make loans to my own and prepare to meet the economic conditions that are being thrust upon us. Last Sunday a few of Oakland's business men met at the Y. W. C. A. and there proposed organizing an investment company that would have for its ultimate aim the financing of homes for Negroes. These men were far-seeing and they felt that the time for action was at hand and that they could ill afford to middle longer while Rome burns. If the Negro is to succeed and if he is to hold his own against the mass attack that is being made against him by organized forces, he must organize. And he must organize his economic and financial resources in order that the best interest of the whole might be considered and it is to be hoped that this laudable effort, will receive the hearty co-operation and support of all Negroes in the Bay District. While it is true that as soon as the news is heralded abroad and that an effort is being made to urge and conserve these economic and financial resources of our group that the small souls that have never done anything and who can not do anything, will get out their little hammers. But they should receive short shrift at the hands of our group because of the fact that we are passing through a period of economic unrest and much pressure is being brought to hear upon men in every walk of life, and the problems must be met as men. There are any number of Negroes who teach and preach as insidious doctrine that says to the other Negro you can not live, you should not want to live where you are not wanted, yet we find in this editorial that the Negroes live in five districts in San Francisco and they are not wanted in any. Then where in heaven's name will the Negroes live to be where they are wanted? Let the answer be, that we will organize our own financial institutions build whely, sambly and yet in a business-like manner and maintain the great principles upon which our government is founded. By so doing we will command the respect of all men who believe in justice and fair play. RADICAL PARTY ESTABLISH NEW ORDER IN FRANCE France now has a new President and a new Premier. The Radical wing have forced the old order out. An Associated Press dispatch, dated at Versailles, June 13, gives the details of the turnover of the government, which is bound to have an important bearing on international affairs, in the following article: Gaston Doumergue was today elected President of France by the National Assembly, composed of the members of the Chamber of Deputies and of the Senate. M. Doumergue, who was President of the Senate, received 515 votes and Paul Painneve, president of the Chamber of Deputies, 309 votes, with twenty-nine votes for various other candidates and eight blank ballots. These figures were officially announced in open session of the Assembly. Immediately after the election, the new President of the Republic asked Edouard Herriot, leader of the Radical party, to confer with him as soon as the Assembly adjourned. The election result, which would have been a great surprise two days ago, but which had been discounted by unexpected developments, was received with satisfaction by two-thirds of the Assembly. President Doumergue is popular with many of those who voted against him, because party discipline pledged them to M. Painleve. The opposition halled the result as a happy check to what they term "the excessive greed and dangerous aggressiveness of the new majority in the Chamber." When the rattle of drums sounded announcing that a new President of the Republic had been chosen, thousands outside the palace, apparently partisans of M. Painleve, set up a great cheer, which died out immediately it was announced that M. Doumergue had been elected. The President was invested with the new office officially by Premier François-Marsal in the salon of the Versailles Palace immediately after the election. He then left for the Elysse Palace in Paris under military escort. While en route he and his escort were forced to take the side of the road to allow several moving vans containing the furniture of former President Miller and to pass. The vans had come from the Elysse Palace bound for the Millerand chateau in Versailles. Former President Millerand and his family left the Elysee Palace this afternoon to live in a modest villa on the blue Mansart, a few hundred yards from the hall in which the National Assembly today chose M. Millerand's successor. The departure from the palace was a few moments after M. Millerand had received a telephone call from Versailles informing him that the voting for his successor had commenced. Eight hundred and sixty-one Senators and Deputies voted. The majority needed to elect was 431. The voting was amid great excitement and animation than generally characteristically the calm and decorous National Assembly. Each Senator and Deputy was meted with cheers from his supporters and boots from his opponents. He deposited his ballot. Premier François-Marsal received the greatest ovation of all.
