The Negro World

LET'S PUT IT OVER The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro The Negro World Reaching the Mass of Negroes The Best Advertising Medium A Newspaper Devoted solely to the Interests of the Negro Race VOL. XVI. No. 22 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1924 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GREATER NEW YORK TEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U.S.A. TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES BIG GATHERING OF NEGROES WILL BE HISTORY-MAKING Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: We are now in the thick of our activities in the promotion of our plan of economic salvation. Today the Universal Negro Improvement Association stretches forth its hands to the Negro peoples of the world, asking for their undivided support in the fostering of the program as laid out for our racial redemption. We are now actively, everywhere, working for the building up of Liberia as a great commercial and industrial state, where Negroes will find a peaceful We have gone far in the arrangements toward this end. Our expert engineers and mechanics are now on the spot, ready to blaze the way in the building of a new commercial commonwealth, and it is our duty to fall behind them with all the financial and other help necessary, to enable them to complete their work. The Home of the Blacks We love Liberia, because it is the only country in the world that offers a home to the distressed black man. The people of Liberia, who are part of us, realize that by a unity of purpose and ideal we can build up a nation of which each and every one of us may be proud. Let us concentrate in doing this, and we can do it in no better way than by universally falling behind the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this time. Get Ships Now Our chief need now is for ships and money; ships to convey the Colonists and to remove the raw materials from Africa to the western world, and money to finance the plan of construction. The Association is now endeavoring to raise $125,000 more for the purchase of the ship to carry our first group of Colonists. Every Negro who has any sympathy for the Universal Negro Improvement Association is asked to make a PROGRAM MOST IMPORTANT EVER PRE SENTED TO RACE ALL ORGANIZATIONS INVITED TO TAKE PART IN GREAT DEMONSTRATION PEOPLE COMING FROM ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD HELP SECURE SHIP FOR AFRICA MAKE YOUR LOAN NOW loan, and immediately, to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. It can be a loan of $50, $100, $200, $500, $1,000; but make that loan now, so that we can "strike while the iron is hot." Give Your Support Surely no member of the Association, and no friend of the race, will withhold the support that is needed at this time. Everybody can help. Those who are now willing to loan the Corporation to secure the ship will address their loans to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, 56 West 135th Street, New York City, N. Y. You may loan any amount as above stated for five or ten years, bearing an annual interest of 5%. This money that you loan to buy ships is practically a loan to yourselves, because in the acquisition of ships we naturally help ourselves to a higher commercial and industrial rating in the world. More ships will mean more development of industries, and if we are to become a great people naturally we must have an industrial and commercial rating in the world. Preparing for Convention And, at the same time, we will not forget the great convention that is just a few days ahead of us. Every Division, Chapter and Branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association should send its delegates to this, the greatest of all conventions. An invitation is also extended to all churches, lodges, fraternal organizations, civic movements, newspapers and clubs to send delegates to take part in the general discussions affecting the entire race. Men and women will be coming from all parts of the world to be a part of this Fourth International Convention. August I will be a redletter day in New York, when thousands upon thousands will join in the great parade that will march through the streets of Harlem. All Branches, Divisions and Chapters are requested to send their banners along with their delegates, and all fraternal organizations, clubs and fraternities are also requested to march behind their respective banners. Celebration at Carnegie Hall The convention will open with divine service at Liberty Hall, 120 West 138th Street, at 10 o'clock on the morning of August 1. The parade will assemble at 1 o'clock before the Association's headquarters, 52-56 West 135th Street, New York. The official opening will be at Carnegie Hall, 57th Street and Seventh Avenue, New York City, at 8:30 P. M., August 1, 1924. Everybody should make an effort to be in New York by the first of August, to join in these demonstrations. All uniformed ranks and auxiliaries are also requested to be in line for the parade. Let us all unite to put the program over, and make 1924 the most brilliant and successful year in the history of the great Universal Negro Improvement Association. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be MARCUS GARVEY, President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association New York, July 8, 1924. All well and good as far as the inclusion of the Shaheed police are considered. All well and good perhaps, but the standpoint of the public welfare. But where was the Shaheed police surgeon when the water-ship abolition man was soaked? Abinance must have come only after adolescence, and 1924 is a far cry from 1844. Was the requisite honor paid to age in this instance? Did the authorities satisfy themselves beyond a psychoanalyst's perseverance that the old gentleman had not inherited an averaged in water? All these, I submit, are permanent questions. When murder in university and kindred circles is committed nowadays, it is the thing to tear the family tree limb from limb, loosening the weevil. Our twentieth century civilization surely demands that this research work be extended to all offenders, high or low, rich or poor, clean or unclean. And—who knows?—the gentleman might have been a conscientious objector. He might have been a firm believer in the doctrine enunciated by a certain medico some time ago that bathing weakens and is not altogether necessary. Here's hoping, in the interest of tolerance, that Brlesenden's relatives will seek redress from the British Home Secretary. William Ward, a Negro, was banged at dawn June 20 at the State Prison, Florence, Arizona; for the wanton murder of Ted Grosh, an Arizona University, student. Ward, the story goes, laid the blame for his brutal deed on the white race, which, he said, burned in his memory a hatred for Caucasians when he witnessed the burning of six, negroes by a mob in Paris, Texas, a few years ago. There are those who will scoff at Ward's explanation. But they need not. For every Negro lynched, for every Negro abused and wronged, ten human beings, perhaps, at some future time, in some way or other, will pay the penalty. Hope springs eternal in the human breast, 'it's true, but revenge lurks in the best of systems, waiting on opportunity. The Negro is patient and loving. He praises and hopes and prays, but being human, he does not forget. Give the Negro a square deal now and men need not look with fear and tremble at the future or Africa's millions. Kick him and bruise him now, and the future feud may be more devilish than that in which the Moors and the Spaniards are at present engaged in Northern Africa. News comes from Louisville, Kentucky, of the maltreatment of two Negro teachers, young ladies, by two park guards. And why? Some Negro children being given an oating in Iroquois park instead of Chickensaw park. The former is a real park, a place of beauty. The latter a park only in name. They compare, I am told, as the Pullman car compares with the Jim-crow car. White children enjoy God's free air at Iroquois; they have never heard of Chickensaw. At sight of Negro children romping in Iroquois park, the Ku Klux spirit blazed in two stalwart white guards. The result: two young ladies assaulted and thrown in jail; Negro children left to wander. The story is told in another column. And now the Negress of Louisville are filled with righteous indignation. Dr. Parrish goes complaining. To whom? To the white children's parents. "If my people are legally prohibited from the public parks," the doctor is credited with saying, "tell us, and we will obey the law." Dr. Parrish is a gentleman, peace-loving and law-abiding. But the doctor can do more. There is a division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in Louisville. It is in dire need of a strong local leader. Let the good doctor join the U. N. I. A. and use his influence in rallying to the division the Negroes of Louisville. Spread in Louisville the doctrine of the U. N. I. A., tell of the Negro's fight for nationhood in Africa. Fight abuses as they occur in Louisville, but fight also for the possession of the real and only weapon which can right abuse and redress wrong—POWER. Until then, Dr. Parrish, however courageous and law-abiding he may be, is crying in the wilderness. On July 4, Hubert Jullan, a Negro, between seven and eight o'clock in the evening, left the East river. New York, in an airplane fitted with pontoons on his heralded round-the-world flight. His itinerary, announced a couple of hours before, gave Atlantic City as his first stopping place. Unfortunately, ten minutes after leaving the East River, Julian and his plane came to grief in Flushing Sound. One and then the other, ponpon fell off, and Julian was recused by the position in a motor boat and taken to Flushing Hospital. The plane was wrecked. Julian is now at his home in New York City recovering from shock. A crowd estimated at ten thousand persons, nearly all Negroes, occupied every vantage point, from river rock to beach, from early morning to evening in the visibility of the Harlem IN SOUTH AFRICA PRACTICE ABUSES AND TALK OF SPREADING THE GOSPEL Bishop of Johannesburg at Anglican Synod Exposes Some Abuses—No Justice for the Native in the Courts or Anywhere—People Burdened With Oppressive Taxes SOME BEADLY RESTRICTIVE LAWS The Arabblishop of Canterbury, speaking of the great meeting in the Albert Hall, London, organized by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, said that "the care of the backward people in Africa was a sacred trust of civilization." Methinks we have heard that phrase before, and also seen what it means in actual practice. The Bishop of Johannesburg, following the lead of "His Grace," lashed out on the native question at the local Diocesan Synod last Sunday. The Fear Complex "He could not help feeling that they were suffering from the fear complex. It was fear repressed, viz., working unseen and unacknowledged. They were dimly conscious that not only were there six millions of natives here in South Africa, but very many millions more to the north in this great continent, and the whites were but a handful; and, he believed, that this fear produced two things. First, a certain synicism, due, possibly, to the belief that the problem was too great for any solution. "What was their policy with regard to the native? He believed a great part of our present policy in Johannesburg served to manufacture criminals. They forebade the natives to own land; they brought them here in shoals to work for us, and provided practically no opportunity for recreation or enjoyment (e.g., there are scarcely any books printed in the native languages), and then when they turned them loose into the streets, if they don't bobhave like angels, came down on them with no light hand. They forced upon them a complicated pass law, which served to bewilder the simple native from the country, but had no terrors whatsoever for the town-bred criminal. A native plicantynn of 15 came to town and was detained by his master one night till 10 o'clock; on the way home he was arrested for having no pass; he spent the night in gaol without any food; was up before the magistrate the next morning and given the option of a fine of $s., which he didn't possess, or four days in gaol. To send a boy like that to gaol was practically asking that he might learn vices, and his education as a criminal had begun. The Native In the Courts "Throughout the country the word of the European was believed as against the native, and in a court of law, when conviction depends upon the word of an European against the word of a native, what hope had the native? Consequently fear and hatred began to take possession of the heart. There was no question that among the natives there had grown up a very grave distrust of our methods of justice. All this helped to the manufacturing of the criminal. It was not the slightest use telling him that it was dangerous to say these things; it was more dangerous to repress them. "These questions were discussed daily by thousands of natives in this town, and they were rapidly losing all belief that there was any chance of justice for them. And, no wonder. Go into the Magistrates' Court on a Monday morning and see one harassed magistrate trying to cope with 600 cases. They would be told that a great many of them pleaded guilty. Many were encouraged to eatstreat their ball- profitable and thoroughly unworthy method of revenue, of which we ought to be ashamed. In the name of justice, if a man was guilty, why should he get off by paying bail and then clearing off? Often, too, natives pleaded guilty because they found it was the safest thing to do. The fear that they had of the police and the rough handling that they knew they would receive was another step in the manufacturing of criminals. "He said this quite deliberately, because he had seen men, quite defenseless, being knocked about in a brutal manner. No doubt the police had many difficulties; and no doubt many sincerely believed that they could never handle a mass of natives unless they knocked them about. But the spirit was very bad, and all helped to the manufacture of criminals. "To get back to the motive. They must get rid of the fear complex. They must have a vision of what they were really out for, instead of drifting along. "If their policy was to keep the nigger down as long as we possibly river, heedless of the sweltering heat and the lure of holiday outings, while mechanics made ready the hydroplane for towing to the starting point. It was an eloquent testimony to the great interest of the awakened Negro in anything that savors of Negro uplift. And when the tide receding fast, left the plane in the mud, the amazing sight was seen of men in holiday garb wading through water and mud propelling the plane from mud to water. It was a splendid demonstration of the fine spirit of a people who are slowly but surely emerging from the shadows. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1984 could, let them say so, thought it was foolish to believe that they could forever sit on 5,000,000 people. It would be well for them to consider if they followed the policy of repression what sort of a situation would the children have to face in forty or fifty years? If, however, the policy was to treat him as a member of a child race, and slowly, carefully, wisely give him opportunities of such development as he showed himself to be fitted for, let them act accordingly. Let them once have a vision of a real future for the native peoples of this land, and there were plenty of ways in which they might begin: The simplification of the pass law, and, above all other things, a solution of the land question. "The 1913 land act still remained uncompleted; in consequence, the native remained a serf on many a farm, with very little opportunities of redress against injustice; and last, but not least, let them see to it that there was equal justice meted out to black and white. "In the Transvaal alone the natives paid £400,000 in direct taxation, and, indirectly, far more, and only receive back £48,000. Out of every £1 spent on education in the province not much more than one tickle went to the native. "As one looked at those great problems, sometimes a feeling of despair came, over one; a sort of feeling that so many people were content to go on fiddling while Rome was burning, and of one's own utter helplessness." The right reverend gentleman can see the results of the treatment of the native worker and some of the more superficial causes, but he will have to look deeper to find the fundamental reason. TROOPS OF SPAIN CUT OFF BY MOORS Revolt of Tribes Spreads to Tetuan and Gunfire Is Heard in Tangier TANGIER, July 2.—Distant gunfire has been audible continuously since morning from the Spanish zone and tonight the firing of heavy pieces at no great distance from Tangier is very distinct. This indicates the spread of the rising of tribes in the Tetuan district. News received today from Tetuan confirmed reports of Moorish success and, although the Spaniards are sanguine they will be able to reopen communications with their military posts on Wady Lau, which have been isolated by the revolt of the tribes, the situation still remains very serious. Spanish troops, which, during the last few months, were being collected in the Riff to bring Abdel Krim to reason, are being hurriedly dispatched by sea to the western part of the Spanish zone. Abdel Krim, who is a master of strategy, seeing his position being menaced from Melilla, sent a strong Riff contingent through Ghomara, which suddenly attacked the Spanish posts on Wady Lau. The Spanish native forces were driven back as far as Amas, about six miles from Tetuan, leaving the Wady Lau forces entirely cut off from their base at Tetuan. 28 Spaniards Fall MADRID, July 1 — Twenty-eight Spartards, including four officers, were killed or wounded in attacks by rebel- ious Moors in the western part of the Moroccan battle zone during the night, said a dispatch from Melilla. Dantes Bellegarde Makes It Unpleasant for Americans Chickens do come home to roost. Of all our imperialistic aggressions in the Caribbean nothing has been quite so flagrant as our reaching as our invasion of Haiti. It is a stench that cannot be aired abroad without embarrassment to any American present. Hence, we are always glad when somebody takes off the lid, for there is nothing more likely to bring sober self-analysis thar to be shamed when company is present. At the Pan-American Conference in Santiago Haitian representatives, although denied a formal opportunity to state their case, nevertheless succeeded in getting the floor, to the obvious discomfiture of the delegates from the United States. Now Dantes Bellegarde, Haitian minister to Paris, has made it equally unpleasant for the American delegates at the sessions of the League of Nations Associations. At a meeting of the political commission, he presented a resolution reciting that without ever having declared war upon Haiti the United States has been in forcible occupation since 1915; he demanded immediate withdrawal. The American delegation succeeded in sidetracking this respiration for one of polite inconsequence, but every time the lid is raised it is harder to keep the mess from smelling to heaven.

HOW NOT TO BUY A BRITISH TITLE TOLD IN COURT London Gasps as Plaintiff Tells How He Paid $15,000 on Account for Knighthood He Didn't Get (Evening Post Foreign Service) LONDON. June 20.—(Wireless.)—Another scandal centered in how titles are obtained in England again is arousing interest here. This time it seems from evidence given today the late Princess Christian, aunt of King George, was led into the scheme purely as a dupe, along with a man, clamoring for a handle to his name, gave up money and got nothing. Some of the alloged values placed upon titles are astonishing, it being mentioned that a peerage would cost a modest $500,000; others are reputed to have obtained them for much less, while a baronetcy would be worth $125,000. A plain knighthood, which is the honor involved in today's case, was quoted at $100,000, but when that was not forthcoming $15,000 was accepted on account. It is charged the money was paid, but no knighthood arrived. Lieutenant Colonel George Parkinson, director of a firm of building contractors, is the present plaintiff against Ernest Harrison, managing secretary of the College of Ambulance, Limited, a company organized to instruct in ambulance work and which had some recognition from influential folk interested in that field. Parkinson's counsel announced in opening the case today that his client was approached some time ago by a person unknown to him who asked whether Parkinson was interested in getting a title. Naturally, he was, whereupon he was passed on to another person and finally to Harrison. Council asserted he was in a position to prove that Harrison told Parkinson he would get him a perage for $500,000, a baronety for $125,000, or a knighthood for $100,000, through the influence he had with Princess Christian. This seemed a bit steep to Parkinson, who arranged to call later with his lawyer. It then was agreed that Parkinson should pay $15,000. Apparently things did not run smoothly, whereupon a woman was injected into the situation. She provided a letter introducing Parkinson to a prominent Conservative party leader, who promptly told Parkinson he had been fooled. In view of the fact that Parkinson, so his counsel maintained, had received a letter from Princess Christian, as president of the College of Ambulance, thanking him for his gift to the college to which his check had been made out, he was nonplussed. Finally he decided to bring suit against the College of Ambulance. Limited. MR. AND MRS. GARVEY IN AUTO SMASH IN NEW YORK Touring Car Collides with Taxi Containing Party of Four on the Way Home From Liberty Hall Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Garvey were in an automobile accident on Sunday night, fortunately without serious injury to either. They were on their way home about 11:30 from Liberty Hall. New York, in a taxi cab when, as they reached 131st street and Seventh avenue, a touring car collided with the taxi. Marcellus Strong, who was riding beside the chauffeur, was severely cut about the face and was later treated at the Hapleton Hospital. Mrs. Garvey and Mrs. O'Meally were severely shaken and suffered from shock. Mr. Garvey was uninjured. A FAMOUS PRINCE OF AFRICA WILL VISIT NEW YORK His Highness, Prince Kojo Tavalou Houenou, Counsellor-at-Law, Court of Appeals, in Paris; Professor of the School of High Sociological Studies (Paris), and President of the Universal League for the defense of the black race, will visit New York during the month of August. The Prince, we learn, will attend some of the sessions of the Fourth International Convention of the Negro peoples of the world, which will be held in August in New York, and during his stay here he will be presented to the Honorable Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Guns for Soviet Seized by British LONDON, July 3.—Two tons of contraband machine guns consigned to Leningrad, Russia, for the Soviet have been seized by the British authorities, it was learned this afternoon. One shipment of arms is said to have got away before the plot was discovered. The authorities are keeping watch at all ports for a ship which was expected to load the contraband. Court proceedings, alleging "conspiracy to ship machine guns from England to Russian illegally, are probable. Anti-Russian newspapers hint that the Russian delegates who came here to attend the Anglo-Russian treaty conference were involved. Anglo-Egyptian Crisis Over Sudan Control LONDON, July 1.—The Anglo-Egyptian crisis on the question of the Sudan as a British possession is taking a prominent place in both the British and Egyptian parliaments. Lord Parmaur's recent emphatic announcement in the House of Lords that the government under no circumstances would abandon the Sudan, has resulted in the Egyptian Prime Minister, Zagoul, tendering his resignation, which, however, King Foud has refused to accept. Premier Zagoul after protracted deliberations, has agreed to continue in office. Jan Christian Smuts Gets Seat in Parliament CAPE TOWN, Union of South Africa, July 1—Jan Christian Smuts, former Premier of the Union of South Africa, whose South African party was defeated in the recent election, wag returned unopposed from Standerton, Transvaal, today. He had accepted the offer of Colonel G. M. Claassen, member of the Assembly for Standerton, to contest his seat. British Cabinet Decides Against Channel Tunnel LONDON, July 2.—The Cabinet, accepting the views of its military and naval advisers, is understood to have decided against construction of the Channel tunnel between England and France. The supporters of the scheme will, however, press for a public inquiry and for an explicit statement of the strategic objections taken by the defense authorities to the project. K. K. K. Name Candidate For the White House GREENBURG, Pa., July 5 — The Ku Kluq Khan candidate for President of the United States is Judge G. O. Nations of Washington, D. C. it was learned here today. His campaign was launched, though not in the hood and bedsheet regalia. Natipsa was nominated by the American party on a Kluq plank. It is undeferred he will receive solid Kluq support at the presidential election. SUBTLE PLANNING FOR THE NEXT TERRIBLE WAR For What? "To Make the Far East Safe for Wall Street?" Perhaps It Looks That Way Future historians would do well to take notes these days on preparations for the next war. For stage settings seem now in process of construction and the time may not be far off when the curtain signal will be given. Meanwhile, what do we see? A series, nay, a crowd of events, of lies, of misconstructions, all which, if correctly sled, would be pouced in an envelope entitled "American-Japanese War." And what is it all about? For many years we have heard about the "yellow peril." In Japan there is equal talk of "white supremacy." In short, American service wants to get more and more firmly entrenched in the Far East. There is only one way, and that is through Japan. Impossible to subjugate China and Chinese resources without first smashing down the door. Japanese finance, on the other hand, would prefer to retain its influence in China and Korea, as well as to keep its own national prestige. We have enacted Japanese exclusion. We disclaim any intention of insulting Japan. But Japan thinks otherwise about it; already talks of boycott; talks of Asia for the Asiatics; turns cold shoulder to American dictators and American missionaries. But on the same page with our reasons for exclusion appear columns about the dangers of the "yellow peril." Five cent weekiles publish the same thing in fiction form. The net is being spread. And all the fishes are beginning to gather. In the moving picture houses school children are hoarded either by invitation of the Tribune or by complimentary invitations of the management to see such glorifications of war as "Powder River" and "America." And to see the enthusiasm with which they "hiss" the "enemy" is to be certain that when the time comes they will rush to war with the same eagerness and the same ignorance as their elder brothers and their fathers did a few years ago. The minority who don't fall for bunk and see through propaganda are already being card catalogued for future persecution. Pacifists are related in some mysterious fashion to Moscow, where, paradoxically, the red army is the pride of every radical citizen. Students and religious bodies standing for international relationships are "victims" of "Japanese propaganda." Now comes another event destined to hasten the conflict. The "United States Navy Department will play a war game" next spring in Hawaiian waters, "the greatest it has ever played," and for a whole month almost the entire United States fleet will practice scouting, screening and formation manoeuvres near Japan. After playing war in Hawaiian waters the battle fleet will move on to Australia. Together with other "games" on the Pacific Coast, the navy will recreate altogether for a period of five months. When this is over, all that will be needed to ring up the curtain will be an American slaughtered by a Japanese or the wife of an American "innailed," at which point we will all gather up arms to make the Far East safe for Wall Street. And He Should Control These in His Own Interest and Not That of Others, but Does Not. Why? From the Birmingham Reporter In a muted situation, such as the Negro finds himself, in these American States, and especially in certain sections, it is wise to keep a watchful eye in order that no condition will escape his attention, and the whole program will be constantly under his perview. This attitude has been styled as suspicion, lack of confidence and mistrust, but with the existing facts and conditions surrounding the Negro there is every reason for suspicion and lack of confidence. The American black man has but one real weapon of defense, in state and nation, and this is his labor and his trade. He is accepted as a trustworthy, faithful and endurable laborer. He is a free spender. He makes but little investigation of where he spends his money, or how he spends it, therefore, he is as likely to share largely with his enemy as he is with his friend. Precaution should be exercised and friendly disposed white people should use that missionary spirit that will force the Negro out of this harmful disposition. We should not be too free to work for our enemy. Our friends are many, we should find employment with them, and under no circumstance, and for no consideration should we spend our money with persons, stores or individuals who are against us, who oppose our well-being, who terrorize our communities, and who regard us as something less than Americans. Such enemies should not be fed or encouraged from the pockets of Negroes. We have made great sacrifices for this government. We have served the South as no other race has. We should have the protection of its laws, and against terrorizing by supposed superior people setting themselves up as the government. We can best judge our friends by their attitude towards our situation. We should watch the newspapers, ask white people questions take stock of ourselves, find out where we are, and whom we may depend upon. Let our enemies draw the line as tightly as they desire it drawn, our position should be that we will not aid them in hindering our progress. We should be opposed to any race, any individual, any group who is opposed to Negro education, manhood, and happiness. We should flee from every position that opposes a lawful disposition of all matters, persons and things. A great many of our friends and institutions are patronizing The Birmingham Reporter. These businesses and friends we recommend for your consideration. They are friendly, to our cause, and respect your publication, and their advertising space with us is a special appeal for your trade. You need not fear them, they can be depended upon. We should spend our money and labor for those people and concerns who are interested in us. There is a strong effort to wrench from the Negro his place as a laborer, and any careless move may prove disastrous to our cause. We must exercise prudence and common sense. Use the weapon in hand to the best possible advantage, and do it now. We would do well to stay away from our foes, find our friends and court greater friendship. Brazil Celebrates First Centenary of Revolution PERNAMBUCO, Brazil. July 2.—Brazil celebrated today with elaborate public festivities, fostered by the Government, the first centenary of the revolution which proclaimed an independent republic in the five northern provinces of Brazil under the name of the Confederation of the Equator.

In the pre-mecting groups the common topic ef conversation was the colonization pro- gram just launched and the splendid effort being-made by the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company to secure a steamship by September, It was evident-that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has succeeded in stirring the Negro in New York to his very depths and that"he is determined to sacrifice, if need be, so that the association's plans may come to fruition. Hon. Matcus Garvey, President-General, presided, and with him on the platform were his wife, several af the executive officers of the association, and distinguished visitors. After a splendid musical Program was rendered, Mr. Garvey stated the progress being made in regard to the securing of the steamship, He repeated that $125,000 more was needed to acquire ‘the ship, a photegraph 6f which ap- peared in last week's issue of The Negro World, and his appeal to the New York Division to make itself responsible for an additional quota of $25,000 met with a fine response. He also~announced that in regard to the .colonization project another shipment of material would leave New York for Liberia on “the 25th of this month—an announcement that was grected with cheers. He called upon the members of the division, the friends .and well-wishers of the association, to assist in making Rose Day, which is to be held in New York on July 15, a conspicuous success. The funds obtained, he explained, would go to financing the colonization undertaking, Several dadies volunteered to sell roses on that day. SELF-RRESERVATION Ty bre cobs caf ty evening, Mr. Garvey was at bis best as he deelt on the meamng ef the new immigration law of the United Star and heaw it affects Negrons, It was in the natural order of thing. he dierhared, for the cavernment of this country at this time, in thys stage of its development, to restrict immigration. It was a duty, he said, which they owed their fathers, a course planned by the ‘latter and whieh the present generation intended to carry éut te the letter The davtaf the apen deer was past, and Negroes wontd do well te face the facts and prepare themselves. for the imevitable hon: when the white man’s policy of self-preservation would, in its pursuance, hit them hard and, possibly, thrust them hack inte the condition that obtained before Lincoln signed the Dechtation of Fmaneipation America, he declared. has decided that this country must be an Angie Saxe nation, a Nordic nation Tt has made up its mind that this past be a white wan'ecomntry, and what the immigration Taw | is sreking to de de merely what the Ku Klux Klan has been talking | Alwort u ° “The Ku Klux Klan is’ not an organization.” he emphasized, “it is a spirit; and how pawerial the Ka Klux Klan is in the exhibition af this cpirit is-made manifest in New York at this time at the Demoeratic National Convention ‘The ‘Klan spirit is sa dominant, the Klan spirit ef shye ‘supremacy and intolerance and theasu- premacy ei the Ang wSaxan, Nordic type. is <a reoted inthe country hat they, cannot even nominate a candidate for the Presidency, of the United States withont satisfying that desire, “And do you know what is going to happen, men?" he asked, and answered: “If the Negro plays thé fool around here for another fifty years he goes back into slavery ae suré as God Almighty mad Moses.” % During the meeting the Hon.

Marcus Garvey. There is no other body of Negroes in existence like unto that which will gather in Liberty Hall. It is unique. It is in a class by itself. It is not an irresponsible conference of people who gather at the call of one or more persons and without authority to speak for others than themselves; it is an international gathering of people in local organizations who are singled out by their fellows and elected as delegates to speak for them. That is to say, it is a representative body made up of many representative bodies, not only of the United States, but of the West Indies, of Latin America and of Africa—Negroes in all parts of the world who come together actuated as by one mind, and that one mind to better their condition in the places where they are, to assist in the redemption of Africa and to help build a nation in Africa which they can go to and remain in at their pleasure and with none to hinder or make them afraid. Already delegates in far off lands are on their way to Liberty Hall, and those nearer are preparing to leave for it. Soon the hosts will be on the ground and Liberty Hall will resound with the united acclamation: "One God! One aim! One destiny!" August I will be a memorable day in the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and of the Negro race. SMASHING THE LIE IN LIBERTY HALL THE effort to get in the way of the Universal Negro Improvement Association's plans to repatriate Liberia and to help make that Black Republic, on the West Coast of Africa, one of the great nations of the earth, an asylum for the Negro everywhere who is dissatisfied in the place where he finds himself and wants to get into a place he can call his own, is on a par with all of the other efforts, and they have been many, to do so. So far all such efforts have failed, and this one to get in the way of making Liberia safe for the Negro will fail. This effort has more of weakness in it than any of the others that have gone before it and failed. Malice, and slander, and falsehood have a rocky road always to travel, with plenty of valiant men to front them and challenge their right to deceive and defame and destroy those they do not oppose and whose plans they do not approve. It is permitted any man to begin a warfare and it is also permitted the man to whom the war is taken to defend himself and his interests. The law of self-defense is older than the Garden of Eden. The man who does not appeal to it when his life and property are placed in jeopardy is a coward and a sneak, and nobody knows that better than the coward and sneak. The earth is full of cowards and sneaks. The Negro race is full of them. They are a sterile in the nostrils of those who strive to do something to make the earth a better place to live in. Those who read the Liberty Hall section of The Negro World of last week, June 28, must have been gratified at the open and frank way in which Rev. R. Van Richards, a native of Liberia, smashed the lie, broadcasted in our newspapers, purporting to come from Liberia, and authorized by a subordinate official, that the Liberian Government and the people of Liberia are opposed to Marcus Garvey and his plans to repatriate and build up Liberia to the extent of the ability and resources of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Mr. Van Richards came to this country to attend, the recent Quadrennial Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, at Springfield. In the course of his address Mr. Van Richards said, among other things: "Let your slogan be, 'United we stand, divided we fall,' and you will stand in this great movement, reared by the Hon. Marcus Garvey, until we have succeeded in putting over the wonderful program of establishing colonies in Liberia for the good of our race and country. "The Chief Justice of Liberia asked that the first colony to be established be on the Cavalla River, and my only regret is that the first colony did not come to my district instead of his. But I sincerely hope, as the days and months and years go by, I will have the pleasure of seeing a colony set up in my country. "I am with you in this great movement. "Now, I want to correct a most damaging article that was published in a paper called the Afro-American. I do not know how many of you read that article, said to come from Liberia, published by one Mr. Butler, signing himself major of detectives of Liberia, or something. It is a most damaging article for those to read who might be joint hearted, who might become easily discouraged. It says in large letters, 'Liberia Bars Garvey.' "I want to say this, I want is to go on record that Liberia does not bar Garvey and those who may go to Liberia. (Applause.) It is one of the most false statements ever put in print. Liberia does not bar any black man that desires to go there. How absurd, how unreasonable for a black republic to debar men and women of color from going there! Liberia welcomes anybody who desires to go. It welcomes Mr. Garvey and any colonists he desires to send there to help in the development of the country, and don't let that article daunt you or make you worried. "I am here tonight as a Liberian citizen and as chaplain to the Senate of Liberia and as one of the district superintendents of one of the churches in Liberia. I have under my care 2,200 members, and I am prepared to tell those members what a great work you are doing here and to get this work deeply fixed in their hearts and get their undivided support to further this great cause. "Another thing. Do not believe that this man, Butler, wrote this article. The composition is not his own. It is the work of some who oppose this great movement. But this work will not fail. Mr. Garvey's plans for good will not fail, and this program to help Liberia develop will be put over in God's time and in God's way." DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION SCANDAL BY T. The The National Convention held its six in Madison Square York, and those able to attend the person "listened to owned or had a ragged in" some set. I live with when I am in New could "listen in" or afternoon and Radio is a great thing to "listen on going in places." And Rev. Van Richards asks, pertinently, if former Presidents Barclay and Roberts and Chief Justice Dossen of Liberia would endorse and support the repatriation plans of the Universal Negro Improvement Association if the Liberian Government were opposed to those plans. The question can be answered in only one way. Liberty Hall is the proper place to smash the lie. It is not the only lie that has been smashed in Liberty Hall, and it will not be the last one. YES: THE WORLD OWES EVERY MAN A LIVING and so many men who are not tribesmen whom it is difficult to classify, that the average mind becomes confused when it undertakes to differentiate them into their proper grouping. And there is as many people of as many minds as there are people. Sometimes it is said of them that they are of one mind; but when the matter is probed it will be found that the agreement is upon one thing or a limited number of things, in which all of those concerned have a selfish or sentimental interest. The person who is willing to do unto others as he would they do unto him is a rare creature; the person who loves his neighbor as he loves himself is hard to locate; the person who does not covet something his neighbor has and is ready to go a long way in the wrong direction to obtain it, resorting often to sharp practice, to robbery, to murder, the main thing being to obtain it. That is to say, human nature is at cross-purposes, hopelessly so in the vital things of life. "Am I my brother's keeper?" rings down the ages, the guilty in thought or act always begging the question and striving to conceal his guilt. As it is with persons in their relations one with another, so it is with nations. What they cannot obtain by scheming and bluffing they strive to obtain by force, by might. When they succeed they promptly vote that it is right. The great Napoleon said that God is on the side of the biggest battalions; that is, might makes right. That is the theory; it is not the fact. We believe with the poet that "Truth crushed to earth will rise again; the eternal years of God are hers." Those who believe and practice the contrary do so at their peril and pay for the wrong. When? In the Even. When is that? Always from the first unto the third and fourth generation. As with the person, the race, so with the nation. There is no escape. Yes; the world owes every man a living, and the laborer is worthy of his hire. But no man can collect his living, or get the worth of his hire without a struggle, in the civilization of which we are a part. Most economic legislation is aimed at taxing some for the benefit of others; at protecting those who employ the laborer from giving him his proper wage, and at favoring those who sell at the expense of those who buy. The eternal struggle is right here, as between persons who buy and sell in a block or district and as between nations that buy and sell in the markets of the world. The disposition to secure advantage, at whatever cost, is as strong with the persons in the block or district as it is with nations striving to getting the better of the trading. The barter may be in labor, products or in lands; always the struggle is to get the better of the bargain, with little regard for what is just and fair. This condition may well be characterized as a corrupt one. Is all flesh corrupt? He is a fortunate person who gets out of the struggle the living the world owes him. Mankind are growing better in this respect, we believe, because of the diffusion of education among the people, who are forcing better government and juster economic laws, but the gain is very small, not only in the United States but in all Christian lands, in which the masses and the classes are at open war with each other. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS A pilot in the home should be there for only one purpose—family protection. The practice of demonstrating examining and otherwise fooling with them has reaped a heavy death toll. As play toys in the hands of curious children they have recorded a long casual list. Will people ever learn that pistols are not to be fooled with, and the supposedly unloaded one is never unloaded until its every chamber is counted empty a dozen times, if need be?—Norfolk Journal and Guide. There is an old adage that "hit dogs howl when a rock is thrown into the pack." On that theory the people who spend trying to find out "what's the matter with leash" or what "the Clarion is driving at," are diligently engaged in turning the title of suspicion toward themselves. A newspaper is a public utility; it should always be true to the masses and strive to promote honor, integrity, justice, and fair play, without regard to intellectual accomplishments or social environment—Nashville Clarion. Last, but not least, if you go "fuzzy" with capital, jump in the swim of NEGRO BUSINESS. It's the principal thing that's eventually going to be your economic savior. It's a young child, but it's growing stronger and better looking each day. It needs your training, your capital, and your patriotism. Some day it will give your kiddie a job when he/she has turned down elsewhere. "And the last shall be first."—Seattle Enterprise. Let us seek always to improve our manners, not only in dress and deportment, but in every other way; not only when, we know we are being observed by others, but at all times let us do the right thing for virtue is it nown reward.-Portland Advocate. Some colored people worry about whether they should exercise common sense and as far as, possible patronize the members of our group. Along this une of reasoning, dear brother, have no fear, for the American white man will think a deal more of you and hold you in a higher esteem when you demonstrate that your ambition is to build up industries and to play the same part of all other citizens along all of the various avenues of business—California Eagle. Some people are satisfied to live on easy street and they do not strive to patronize any other thoroughfare. The road to independence, prosperity and final happiness does not run that way, and every one of us should know it—Richmond Planet: There is plenty of courage within the Negro race. It may lack training and, therefore, be inefficient, but we are not cowardly. The bombing out on 25th and Montgall has aroused a host of volunteers who are willing to defend the property at whatever risk. It is well. Men vary in ability, but among all races there is a degree of manliness that commands respect. It is foolish of those who have conspired to endanger the lives and property of Negroes, to think they do so with perfect immunity. They need to remember that the Negro having accepted all the rest of the Anglo-Saxon standards is very likely to act upon the presumption that a man's house is his castle—Kansas City Call. Many of our group have become discouraged and are looking to the formation of the third party, others joining the ranks of the Democrats in the hope that through a division it may be shown to the Republicans that our massed vote without a proper representation can never more be depended upon. These few are in earnest, but they are martyrts to the cause they espouse, and will in time do its own good. Local results have been obtained that have been beneficial to the whole community by this method, a direct argument that through a division in The National Democratic Convention held its stormy sessions in Madison Square Garden, New York, and those who were not able to attend the convention in person "listened in," if they owned or had a radio set. I "listened in" some on the Leonard set. I live with the Leonards when I am in New York. But I could "listen in" only on the late afternoon and night sessions. Radio is a great thing. It allows persons to "listen in" on what is going on in places where a black or yellow face would not be allowed to show, or where one's social and other standing and bank account would not warrant him to expect to be present. Which classification do I come under? It is to guess. The proceedings of the convention which I "listened in" on were very exciting and excitable. At times it seemed like the riot call would have to be sent in to police headquarters. White Democrats are just as querulous and fussy as Black Republicans when they come together in convention. Everybody wants to talk and everybody wants to make off with the honors that are to be had. Human nature is much the same, whether a black or white, skin covers it, and there is but little real good under any sort of skin. All flesh appears to be corrupt and needs only time to make itself smelt. Well, the National Democratic Convention was scandalized in many ways. The Ku Klux Klan was drawn into the open and mercilessly lambasted and the convention divided half and half on condemning it by name, and Old Man William Jennings Bryan was hissed and jeered by the rabble on two occasions, when he was allowed to address the convention. These two incidents were highly scandalous and I never expected to live to see them come to pass. When, on Tuesday, Senator Byron Patton Harrison of Mississippi was delivering his keynote speech, he came upon a burst of applause that interrupted the flow of his words, and he sat down and mopped his brow and received congratulations. While he was so absorbed and oblivious, Miss Anna Case, a real songbird, who had sung her song, took advantage of the occasion and occupied Mr. Harrison's place, and riveted the attention of the convention with a brilliant rendition of "John Brown's Body Lies Moundering in the Grave." She woke up the echoes, but the convention was dumb, scandalized that such a song should be sung in such a place. Then, again, on Tuesday night, when Mr. Irwin of Georgia was making an impassioned appeal to the Georgia delegation to vote to name the Klan in the platform and repudiate all its works, pandemonium broke loose. While it was at its height the band struck up "Sherman's March from Atlanta to the Sea." That brought the convention to silence in short order. Whoever thought that military anthem could be played in a Democratic convention? Not I. Of course the convention was scandalized, and the Georgia delegates are still kicking and growling because the thing did happen. But, "what has been has been." The Lynching Record for the First Six Months of 1924 TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., July 1.—The following statistics on lynching for the six months of the year 1924 have been compiled by the Department of Records and Research of Tuskegee Institute. Total number lynched, 5. Offenses charged, rape, 3. attempted rape, 1. killing officer of the law. 1. Record by States, Florida, 2. Georgia, 2. South Carolina, 1. Comparison of records: first six months of 1924, 5; first six months of 1923, 18; first six months of 1922, 30; first six months of 1921, 36. It is gratifying to note that the record, thus far for the year 1924 is the lowest for the first six months of any of the forty years during which the record, has been kept. It is an encouraging sign of progress toward the elimination of this evil, which is condemned by public opinion. It is an indication of the growing sentiment against lawlessness in general, and in my judgment a result of the spread and influence of interracial co-operation. All of the persons lynched were Negroes. Yours very truly. our rank, some good, was accomplished.—Omaha New Era. But may we add with emphasis that it is not, parties that moan the salvation of our race, but our unity of purpose and action, integrity of heart and righteous conduct.—Rocky Mountain Voice. WHAT WE BELIEVE THE Universal Negro Improvement Association advocates the uniting and blending of all Negroes into one strong healthy race. It is against miscegenation and race suicide. It believes that the Negro race is as good as any other, and therefore should be as proud of itself as others are. It believes in the purity of the Negro race and the purity of the white race. It is against rich blacks marrying poor whites. It is against rich or poor whites taking advantage of Negro women. It believes in the spiritual Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. It believes in the social and political physical separation of all people to the extent that they promote their own ideals and civilization, with the privilege of trading and doing business with each other. It believes in the promotion of a strong and powerful Negro nation. It believes in the rights of all men. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSN. MARCUS GARVEY, President-General January 1, 1924. HEALTH.TOPICS Of the New York Tuberculosis Association "Hard as Nails" The condition known as gallstones is of interest to those who have to lead a sedentary life, for it is people who get no exercise who seem to be most liable to get this trouble. Gallstones are actually like stones—very hard, as a rule—some small, some large, irregular in shape, they form pebble-like structures which may cause considerable discomfort. There is no place in the body which was meant to take care of this sort of thing, and when they are formed, and when it is attempted to pass them along to other portions of the body, trouble arises. The stones are made of certain mineral salts, which normally remain incorporated in liquid form as part of the bile. Sometimes, foreign material finds its way into the gallbladder, a little pouch-like organ, which is located in the upper right hand quadrant of the abdomen near the liver, and once there starts an inflammation which upsets the normal conditions. It may be that bacteria get into the gallbladder and, using them as a nucleus or center around which to gather, the salts accumulate and, getting out of solution, they form "stones." There are certain predisposing factors in the production of stones, which are as follows: Age is a factor, for gallstones are rare before the age of 30; they are more common in women; lack of exercise, followed by the relaxation of the abdominal muscles; chronic constipation; tight clothing, especially laring; obesity; tumors in the abdomen—all these things seem to have an influence in the production of this condition. Pregnancy, because it tends to produce a permanent relaxation of the abdominal muscles, is a decided factor in the occurrence of gallstones. The gallbladder has a connecting passage between itself and the intestine, and through this duct flows the bile which has an important part to play in the digestion of foods. Stones may pass out through this duct into the intestine and so on down, to be eliminated without the knowledge of the patient. They may get stuck in the narrow passage way and cause decided disturbance, however, and it is rare to have stones without there being some symptoms of which I will tell you in my next article. High Hand and Long Arm Rule Continues in Hayti To the Editor of The Negro World I am writing to inform you that Mr. Jollipois Fills, the Haitian leader has been thrown again in jail for hav- dened denounced in the press the re- eling, manu militari, by the U. S. M. C. of the balance of our institutions and the expulsion of the natives there- from. In response to the protesta- tions of the people, who are on the verge of starvation, High Commis- sioner Russell, who is the supreme chief of the island, claims to be merely carrying out orders from the Wash- ington government. Needless to say that the people are reluctant to be believe such a statement. Telegrams have been sent to President Coolidge and Secretary of State Hughes, ac- quainting them with, the here-mentioned facts. Tours very sincerely. JOSEPH MIRAULT. New York, July 8. Yes; It Would Be a Very Profitable Investment (From New York Evening Journal) This is an appeal to builders and to those that lend money for building to undertake on an extensive scale, on a sound and by no means philanthropic, the task of supplying good homes for colored people. The very men that complain that the spreading of the colored population "injures their property" will not lift a finger to supply decent living quarters at reasonable rents for the colored population that must live SOMEWHERE. The colored people have no desire to intrude upon the whites or to "injure their real estate," as the real estate men put it. They must have living quarters. They must and they WILL live somewhere. For SELFISH reasons or for BETTER reasons, those that have capital to invest and land appropriate for the purpose, should build for colored people at reasonable prices, and for a fair return on the money, the apartments that they require. Contractors say that they have failed to build flat houses for the colored population because "financials will not land money for such building considering it an unsound risk." It is not an unbound risk; on the contrary, it would be one of the SAFETE possible investments. The colored population of New York City is sufficient to guarantee indefinitely responsible, desirable, financially sound colored tenants, enough to fill a hundred great apartment houses, ten times over. The man that will first undertake this work, either as contractor, or as a financier behind the contractor, will render public service to the city and to a hard working and deserving class of the city's population. War Scenes in Flanders At Lafayette Theatre Actual war scenes filled at the fighting front in Flanders in the uncertain days of 1918 form a picturesque and dramatic feature of Emory Johnson's new production, "The Spirit of the U. S. A." now playing at the Lafayette Theatre. Despite the presence of these unusual scenes, which were photographed by army cameramen within range of the big guns of the enemy, the Johnson production is not an outright war picture. The stupendous field of battle serves merely as a dramatic background against which the young predator has painted his vivid story of the most important hours of American history. Jaws Contribute $8,500,000 For Rebuilding Palestine PJTTSBURGH. July 1—American Jews have contributed $8,500,000 toward the rebuilding of the Jewish homeland in Palestine under the British mandate within the last three years.

Of this sum the Palestine Foundation Fund has raised $6,000,000, the balance being obtained by sixteen other agencies, Mr. Neumann said. 1,000 Hooded Klansmen Initiate 150 "Aliens" PERTH AMBOY, N.

MYSTO 88, 100 Church Street, Dept. 717, New York City Journalist Fernandez Defends Good Name and Reputation of Mr. Joseph Tanner From a Newspaper Allegation BOARD OF TRADE MEMBER To the Men. Editor of "The New York Age." New York City, N. Y. Dear Sir and colleague:—In conjunction with the expositions published in "The New York Age," weekly newspaper, under your direction, dated June 28th and July 8th, respectively. I notice you have begun a moral campaign against the well known game "NUMBERS," and in the first place, in a decided and open manner, you accuse as one of its prominent factors Mr. Joseph Tanner, who, to the best of your knowledge, is within the radius of said business, and as you say, exploiting the salaries acquired by heads of families and even influencing their children, which constitutes a violation of a precept of our "ACTUAL PENAL CODE." Permit me, my most distinguished colleague, in character of JOURNALIST, and as a fervent admirer of the highest principles of EQUITY, to take the liberty of assuming his defense before the public, thus placing the truth in its righteous place, and devil-ling any erroneous impression formed by the public, upon reading the articles above referred to. I respect your authorized opinion with regard to the immorality of said game, as well as any opinion, verdict or resolution that might have been issued by any court in this regard, and it is not my intention to enter into a controversy to decide if there exist fundamental precepts to determine and punish the game, as well as if the evidence presented in all those cases lies within the judicial limit, and if any of the cases already brought to court have established a precedent in the way of jurisprudence, although the only court with jurisdiction to base any jurisprudence is the Supreme Court of the State. I have taken his defense to clear the personality of Mr. Joseph Tanner, and inform my distinguished colleague and gentleman Editor of "The New York Age" that his exposure regarding Mr. Tanner in connection with the game of the "NUMBERS" is most unreasonable and, doubtless, the gentleman Editor of "The New York Age" has been either surprised or misinformed, and in either one of the cases, this matter requires an honorable rectification and once this procedure has been followed, an act of due justice has been realized. Mr. Tanner has never been connected with the "NUMBERS," nor has he ever had relations whatever with forbidden games; he has been all his life an example of a citizen, with a clean record, a perfect gentleman, having so demonstrated in all the acts of his life. He has been in New York for the last twenty-three years, and enjoys a well earned prestige for his many virtues. He was born in Brooksville, Fl., and was educated in Key West, wherein he learned the cigar making trade, later coming to this city around the year 1201 and working as a cigar maker; with privations and savings he saved some money, which led him to business where he saw better hopes. In 1310 he began his direct efforts towards the real estate business, where, with perseverance and honesty he has succeeded in creating a brilliant financial position for himself, having around ten properties in this city, all of them acquired due to his efforts and perseverance. Hon. Editor of "The New York Age." Mr. Tanner did not need to relate himself with the "NUMBERS" to buy an automobile. In the year 1917 he bought a magnificent car, a "DANIEL" and after that date he has been buying different cars with the money he has been getting from his businesses, the profits of which allow him to live splendidly and in a position to buy a car every year. If he wanted to. He has been a good son, a true and sincere friend, and is a good husband, all of which makes him he entitled to the highest of esteem. He is a prominent member of the Democratic party in the Harlem district, a member of the Board of Trade, and is also a member with high degrees of Masonry, belonging to many charitable institutions of the city; with all these qualifications, my distinguished colleague, you can judge the man. "Men are judged by their morits and their deeds." Until now, the eloquence of the proof is not substantiating the eloquence of the facts. Mr. Joseph Tanner is a perfect gentleman, entitled to the highest respect and consideration, and until the contrary is proven, his reputation will continue to be unstained in the heart of all who esteem and like him. I invite now the Hon. Editor of "The New York Age" to rectify in time and an act of true justice will be realized. Trusting that my distinguished colleague will give this request his best attention and thanking you in anticipation of same. I beg to remain Yours very truly. JULES DEL TORO FERNANDEZ New York City, July 7, 1924. TWO LOUISVILLE SCHOOL TEACHERS BEATEN AND JAILED BY PARK GUARDS White Guards Displeased at Negro Children Romping in Same Park With White Children Vent Spleen on Young Negro Women Teachers-Children Left to Wander About MIGHT RULES IN LOUISVILLE—AND THE MINORITY GOES COMPLAINING From the Louisville Leader (June 21) As all fair, minded white citizens should be, the colored citizens of Louisville are aroused as never before in the history of the greatest and fairest of cities, well within or near the borders of the South, over what they regard as one of the most flagrant acts of injustice on the part of officials of the city, and the most inconsiderate and brutal treatment on the part of officers of the law known to this community, surpassing that of many of the dirty and rotten boroughs of the farther South. On last Friday Missee Naomi Anthony and Margaret Taylor, young lady teachers of the Coleridge-Taylor school, of which Prof. Joseph S. Cotter is principal, programmed to take twenty-two of their pupils for an outing at one of the city's public parks. Miss Anthony's mind guided her to Chickasaw Park, an unfit plot of ground far out of the way, secured for Negroes by the Republican party, detested, insured and disregarded by hundreds of respectable, rigid thinking Negroes who understood the motive of Republican leaders in making such a place for "their niggers." On the verge of catching a car, for this place one of the children of the party remarked that they had rather go to a park they had not been to; another mentioned the fact that a little boy was drowned there, and she preferred some place else. It was after these remarks that the teachers finally decided to go to Iroquois Park. Reaching this park in the early afternoon, and with a feeling that they were entitled to, and likewise welcomed to all the parks afforded for the recreation and fun of the children, the program was carried out without a hitch, until a few minutes before catching the car for the return to the city. The Trouble Starts The park guards might have had some feeling of displeasure at having colored children romp about the park, but not until the children attempted to return one of the swings, while waiting for the car, was any opposition to the rights of the teachers and children made known. On this approach the children were informed that they could not further use the swings and that they were not wanted in the park, had no business there in the beginning, that "niggers" should go to the "nigger" park, meaning the plot of ground designated as Chickasaw, a park for Negroes. Chokee and Arreata Teachers Feeling within the law, and within their rights as citizens, and taxpayers to use any of the public parks of the city, the teachers told the guard that they would take up his orders with the Board of Park Commissioners Enraged by the intelligence of a colored lady, one of the guards, Judd Bass, attacked Miss Anthony, with cusses and abuse, grabbed her by the throat, choking her to his own satisfaction, while the other, Bon F. Taylor, took charge of Miss Taylor. They had the young ladies consider themselves under arrest, and calling the patrol, threw the teachers in, carried them to jail, where they were locked up until gotten out through the efforts of Attorney W. H. Wright, while the little children, left alone, to get home as best they could, wandering about in the park scared and lost. Several did not manage to get home until a late hour, and it is interesting to know how some of them finally arrived back home, with parents worried and waiting impatiently. Call on the Mayor The news rapidly spread over the city of the inhuman treatment of Misses Anthony and Taylor, two young women of splendid characters, the inconsideration of the guards of the value of the lives of little colored children, their disregard of the rights of the colored citizens, who in the largest measure are responsible for the positions held by them and nineteenth of the city officials, little and big, a large committee was gathered together early Saturday morning to register their protest against the brutal injustice to the Mayor of the city, Mr. Huston Quinn. Facing the committee of civilians headed by Dr. C. H. Parrish, president of Simmons University, as spokesman, Mayor Quinn did not want to hear the committee, Advising that the complaint should be made to the Board of Park Commissioners, of which he was a member, and he would then hear the story. Dr. Parrish, feeling it the Mayor's duty to hear him, was as persistent in his efforts to tell the Mayor about the outrage as the Mayor was in his Phone Morningside 1811 LAFAYETTE THEATRE 7th Ave. At 132nd St. New York City NOW PLAYING Remember MARY CARR and JOHNNIE WALKER in "Over the Hill" See Them Now in "THE SPIRIT OF THE U.S.A" See them in their glorious hour of triumph!

Dr. Parrish continued to talk and when he had finished, the Mayor had heard his speech. The Mayor advised further, however, that the case be taken up with the Board of Park Commissioners which met Tuesday morning at 11.45. From the Mayor's office the committee went to the court of Maristrate Levy, where warrants were taken out against Tyler and Bass, the park guards, charging assault and battery. The case against the teachers, charged with disorderly conduct and resisting park guards, was continued until Tuesday, June 24, when called in the police court. Saturday morning. CAPITAL FOR PALESTINE Zionists Plan Drive at Pittsburgh Meeting PITTSBURGH. July 2.—A study of the economic possibilities of Palatine with the view of enlisting capital for its upbuilding will be made by a commission of American Zionists and business men, the Zionist Organization of America decided here last night at the closing session of its annual convention. Appointment of the commission, election of officers and adoption of resolutions marked the session. Louisa Lipsky, New York, was re-elected chairman; the Rev. Hirsch Maslainky and Reuhen Brainin, both of New York, were elected honorary vice chairmen; Other officers named were Judge Bernard A. Rosenblitt, New York; Max Schulman, Chicago; Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver, Cleveland, and Miles Henleitza Szold, New York; vice chairmen; Isaac Melster, New York; treasurer, and David Tannenbaum, New York, associate treasurer. The Palestine Commission will be headed by Bernard A. Rosenblatt, New York, chairman. Resolutions call for the raising of $500,000 this year for the purchase of land in Palestine; indorating the movement to establish a conservatory of music in Palestine as a memorial to all Jawlah soldiers who died in the World War, and suggesting a day be set aside each year for observance as Palestine Day by American Jews. "Sincere gratitude" of the organization for his "support of the Zionist movement" was extended to President Coolidge. JAPAN OPENS OIL REGION Tokio's Navy Prepares for Supply in Event of War PARIS, July 4.—The Japanese Navy is busy preparing an oil supply which will make it independent in the event of war. A company acting for the navy is opening new oil and oil shale regions in Manchuria. Japanese activities in Sagkallin, also with navy backing, are reported. It is said the steamer Vankanoura Maru has sailed with oil development equipment for the island. GENEVA, July 3 (By Associated Press)—Representatives of the Italian Government have been asked to reserve apartments here in September for Premier Mussolini. The Italian Premier is expected to attend the meeting of the League of Nations Assembly with Prime Minister MacDonald and Premier Herriot. HAMPTON, Va., July 7.—"The thing that impressed me most in Africa, was the tremendous variety of nation," said Dr. James Hardy Dillard, of Charlottesville, Va., president of the Jeanes and Slater Boards, in his recent address before a mass meeting of ministers, teachers and farmers, held in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute. "The nations differed among themselves more than the nations of Europe—In habits, customs, language and religion. I was longest in Kenya, an English colony five times as large as the State of Virginia. There were at least a dozen nations and languages in Kenya, not to speak of the differences in the people. The national differences are very striking. "Another striking thing is the improvement in the condition of the women. The men used to do the fighting and the women do the work. Of their own accord, this has stopped. This is a great step forward. There are government workers going about showing people how to raise things better. The natives raise good tobacco and cotton. In one country the production of cotton is growing appreciably. England is determined to raise her own cotton. Africans Seok Education "The one thing that struck me on the way down the coast is the determination of the natives to have an education. They are going to have it. I went out in the country and saw what the people themselves were doing. Those people are finding out that there is something that helps to keep their interest; that is, education, and they are determined to get it. Missionary students have started schools. In one school forty or fifty students were being taught. They were working on slates and all were interested in my seeing their slates. They appreciated my interest. "There was a native college in Africa where the students who attended had to pass an examination harder than any college in America. There were seventy genuine college students, and a fine medical school is going to be established there." "Every child of God has to have a chance." We simply have to go on working to do the best we can. It is spreading the kingdom of heaven. It means more light, the light of education for all, and each one can in his own humble way so do his task that he will help this work." Right Work the Test Doctor Dillard, was introduced by Principal J. E. Gregg of Hampton Institute as "a friend of all men everywhere." Doctor Dillard said in part: "Farmers have to work hard, teachers have to work hard, but the hardest worker of all, if he does his job right, is the preacher. Jesus Christ never did talk about groups of people. The right thing is to think about human beings. Think about that individual mother, thatIndividual father, that individual child. Get out of the habit of talking about groups, or putting people into a maze. Talk of individual men and women. "No calling is any better than in other calling in a new. The difference is not the difference in calling or work. The difference lies in the handling that you put into the work. I cannot conceive of a farmer doing nothing but plow his fields and care for his crops. I cannot conceive of a teacher teaching the children and nothing else. It is the spirit, the attitude, that we have, and if your work is really preparing for the great positions of life we have to look out for the way in which we do that work. "We must think about our relations to others that will be affected by our work and by our attitude. We must not think about ourselves. The less you think about yourself in your work the surer that work is to be the right kind of work. Think about what you are to do with reference to the work itself. It must be good work."

NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF SOCIAL WORKERS Eugene Kinckle Jones Elected to the Executive Board— Liberal Sentiment Toward Negro Work and Workers At the fifty-first annual session of the National Conference of Social Work, held in Toronto, Canada, June 28 to July 2, Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, was elected to the executive committee. This was the first time in the history of that organization that the conference at large, consisting of nearly 6,000 persons—5,500 delegates present—has voted a colored person into this office. As evidence of the fact that Mr. Jones was a popular choice, the audience applauded vigorously when the announcement was made by the president at the general session on Tuesday night. There were thirteen candidates for the five positions on the executive board that were open. Mr. Jones standing third on the list of candidates. The other person is elected to the board were Edith Abbott, dean of the School of Social Administration of the Chicago University; James F. Jackson, chair of the Section on Family Welfare of the Cleveland Council of Social Agencies; Julia C. Lathrop and Robert A. Woods, former presidents of the National Conference of Social Work. At this instance there were some forty colored delegates. There were nineteen places on the program at which the Negro was discussed in some form and fourteen of the speakers were colored. This recognition of the problems among Negroes and the part which Negro social workers are playing in efforts to improve the community life of the nation is considered most significant by students of interracial problems, it being considered JUDGE FOR YOURSELF The Madam C.J.

THE NEGRO AS HE IS PORTRAYED IN BRITISH AND AMERICAN LITERATURE Shakespeare Had a Low Estimate, While Cowper Had a High One—Before and After Civil War Types Were Not Always Depistied True to Life THE NEGRO AS HE IS BRITISH AND AN Shakespeare Had a Low E a High One—Before Were Not Always Dep By J. MILTON SAMPSON In Opportunity for June In the last few decades many books on the so-called Negro problem have been written by representatives of both the white and the colored groups. Most have purported to be rather of a scientific, economic or sociological than of a literary nature. This article is intended as a suggestive study of Negroes as they have figured in the literary life of the Anglo-Saxon. In that literature they have played many parts, and many sad ones. That Negroes were felt as inferiorors not only in our own country and that color discrimination was not unknown in much earlier times is shown by Shakespeare's treatment of Moorish characters. For our purposes it is immaterial whether a Moor is a Negro or not, but it is significant that even in Elizabethan England a black skin was looked at askance. In "The Merchant of Venice" the Prince of Morocco asked Portia not to dislike him for his complexion.— "The shadowed livery of the burnished sun." Fortia again, after the Prince has chosen the wrong casket, says— "A gentle ribbiance—draw the curtains; go." Let all of his complexion choose me so." Another Moor, Othello, is called a black ram, his thick lips are anered at, and Brahauito, in accusing him of enchanting and abducting his daughter, says: "I'll refer me to all things of sense. Whether a maid so tender, fair and happy." Would ever have, to incur the general mock. Run from her guardage to the sooty bosom "Of such a thing an thou, to fear not to delight." Coleridge, in commenting upon the same play, wrote: "It would be something monstrous to express this beautiful Venetian girl calling in love with a veritable Negro." There are three general types, as they may be called, which emerge from the mass of written matter. Oftentimes, however, it is the attitude behind the creation of the character rather than the resulting character upon which emphasis will be laid. These are the slaves: the ante-bellum Negro, the Negro in mahdhah stature. Doubtless the desultory reader knows more about the slave type than about the others. Nearly everybody has read or heard about "Uncle Tom's Cabin" the poems of Longfellow and Whittier, and the palimonic writings of William Lloyd Garrison. In the writings of these distinguished persons our attention is directed not so much to what the Negro is as to what he suffers. Among prose works, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is the standard. The venerable, white-headed old man, obedient alike to the good St. Clare and Little Eva, and to the cruel Loyce, is well known. His obedience and his humility are his outstanding characteristics. The other characters are not more or less human than Uncle Tom. Some are resentful, openly or coverly, of bad treatment, and some are stubborn, even under the lash; others yield themselves to gain the good grace of the master, but only do so that their chances of escape may be the greater because of the master's confiding in them. The murder is characterised by a very strong and altogether natural love for her child. In a word, they are all people; but Uncle Tom is a somewhat idealized type of a patient and plaus and long-suffering fortunate. The author has arrived to be fair, for she has pointed the good master as well as the bad, the bad slave as well as the good. But she wished to arouse sym- MAKE MONEY Big Profits to Agents New Catalogue Ready Full of Good Things To Buy and Sell Premium, 5 and 10 cent goods, varieties, bazaars and fair goods.

DEPARTMENT 12 2193 Seventh Avenue NEW YORK CITY MAGAZINE PAGE pathy and her-book, therefore, emphasizes the sufferings of the unfortunate rather than their capabilities, their humility rather than their humanity. Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) prefers to treat Jim, the runaway slave of Huckleberry Finn, for his humorous possibilities, but not without enlisting sympathy on his side. Mark Twain says that he was reared to believe slavery a divine institution. However, in this story one of the strongest of scenes is that in which Huck tries to decide whether to write Jim's owner, apprising her of his, whereabouts. Being a son of the South, Huck knew that helping a slave to escape was an offense unpardonable on earth or in the beyond. So he wrote the letter to save his soul; but to save his own self-respect he decided not to send it. Again in this scene probably, the strongest argument presented to Huck's mind is Jim's pathetic plaint, "Massa Huck, youse de only white man dat has treated me year." Jim is also a superstitious, faithful kind-hearted victim of circumstance. Lowell, in "The Biglow Papera," also treats the question humorously. Lowell is opposed "to slavery," but satirizes those in favor of it and their arguments, instead of condemning the institution. A few instances will suffice to show his peculiar treatment: "Slavery's a thing that depends on complexion. It's God's law that fetters on black skins don't chafe." In the more serious poetry, of course, there is not the same chance for development of character as in prose, but by the treatment of incidents and individuals one can very readily arrive at a comprehension of the different views on the subject. Cowper, Longfellow, and Whittier were writers more or less on slave topics. Cowper's contribution was small, but one of his poems is often quoted, especially the lines: "Fleecy locks and black complexion Cannot forfeit Nature's claim; Dwells in white and black the same." These words the poet puts in the mouth of the Negro, and he ends with the reproach directed against the whites that they are slaves of gold, and that they should find a better reason than color for regarding Negroes as brutes. In that poem the Negro is represented as intelligent, with power to present a logical argument. Cowper expressed his feelings in his own person in the following way in "The Task": "He finds his fellow guilty of a skin. Not colored like his own; and having power" T" enforce the wrong for such a worthy cause. Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey." And later, in the same poem—"I had much rather he myself the slave. And wear the bonds than fasten them on him." This is only mildly interesting. It is abstract, academic, formal—it shows a recognition that suffering existed to his own knowledge and that, consequently, his gentle, merciful disposition was disturbed. Just as gentle was Longfellow. To the recognition of the physical suffering he added a glimpse of the mental state of the slave as in the "Slave's Dream": "Again, in the midst and shadow of sleep. He saw his Native Land." Or in "The Psalm of David," exultantly sung. But there is nothing in Cowper or Longfellow to compare in depth of passion with the fiery lyrics of Whittier. Whittier covered the whole field of slavery from the slave ship to death. Brutality speaks through one character and is rebuked through another, and it is a question which is more effective: "Gloomily stood the captain. Growled through that matted lip— 'The blind ones are no better.' 'Let's lighten the good ship!' 'Hark, from the ship's dark bosom, The very sounds of hell! The rinkling clank of iron— The starving infant's moan, The horror of a breaking heart Poured through a mother's groan." Again he describes the farewell of a Virginia slave, mother to her daughters sold into bondage further south; "Gone, gone—sold and gone. To the rice-swamp dank and lone Tolling through the weary day. And at night the spoiler's prey. O. that they had earlier died. Sleeping calmly, side by side. Where the tyrant's power is oer. And the fetter galls no more. Gone, gone—sold and gone. To the rice-swamp dank and lone. From Virginia's hills and waters— Woe is me, my atoken daughter." (To be continued next week) THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1984 (From The New York Sun) Prof. Charles P. Fagani, of the faculty of the Union Theological Seminary has now come out with what might be called "A Modernist Epistle to the Hebrews." In it he pleads for a better understanding between Jew and Gentile, advocating the eradication of prejudice on all thoughts relating to religion. "It is high time that men of good will everywhere, no matter what uniform or label they may wear, should emerge from the theological trenches into which they have dug themselves and go over the top," he declares. "We should try not to engage in fratricidal strife nor work with a view to competitive proselytizing, but to talk things amicably and devise ways and means of co-operating for the general good in those practical matters which, all agree, are of vital consequence to the human family, while continuing to abide in the religious groupings which inheritance, environment or individual choice have made habitual. "There is one, and only one, religion that is different from all the others, and that one is to be seen in the teaching of the great prophets of Israel whose line culminated in the last and greatest of them, Joshua-ben-Joseph of Nazareth, better known under the Greek form of his name, Jesus. "This 'prophetic' religion, as we may call it for convenience, has the unique characteristic that it presents God as not being concerned or interested in worship offered to himself—in rites and ceremonies, the distinctively, religious' activities, an usually understood; but an putting supreme insistence on the practice of Justice, righteousness and friendliness among men. Compares Jew and Gentile "We must now consider the question of whether it is Judaism or Christianity that comes nearer to presenting to the world this prophetic religion. "Judahism was born of the coming together of Canaanism and Prophethism; Christianity, of the merger of Prophethism with Hellenism. "It is a fact that must more and more attain to general recognition that historical Christianity goes back to Paul as its founder and not to Jesus. "Jesus lived and died a loyal Jew. He was not a Christian. "For 2,000 years the Jews have been martyrged because of their rejection not of Jesus, but of Christ. "Protestantism committed a fatal blunder when, after throwing off the yoke of the Papacy, it substituted for it the more disastrous tyranny of an 'inspired' Book. "Is it not an infinite pity that the synagogue, in giving up and showing the sublime prophet that belonged to her, should thereby have ignorantly connived at the appropriation and monopoly of Him which was made by the Christian church? "But the synagogue knew not what she was doing, and may not the time come when she will assert her indisputable claim to the Jesus of the Synoptic Gospel, leaving to the church the Christ of Paul and of John? Net Jesus but Christ "So it is that when the Ghetto Jew executes the name of Jesus, it is not Jesus that he thus ignorantly condemns, but the Dablinie Christ on whose account he has borne the badge of shigga and contempt all down the ages. "When the reform Jew honors Jesus in the company of Amos, Hosea, Micah, Isaiah, Jeremiah, as the supreme exponent of Israel's prophetism, it is not because he has leannings toward Trinitarianism, nor is it with a view to becoming a candidate for baptism. The Jew believes in the religion of Jesus, he cannot bring himself to accept the religion about Jesus. "Christianity centers on the doctrine of salvation from hell through the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ, who died to satisfy the justice of God, thus enabling Him to pardon men for the sin inherited from Adam. "This, in substance, is the scheme worked out by Paul starting with the belief common to his time that the second and third chapters of Genesis give us actual history. "In the religion of Jesus, God is a just and tender father, who forgives a prodigal son when he comes back simply because he loves him and not because an innocent victim has suffered in his stead. "Blames St. Paul for Theology. "It is the Pauline belief in a fall in Adam that makes necessary an atonement through Christ. But if Adam is not historical and the fall is not historical, then the atonement is not necessary and the religion of Jesus stands forth freed from all the additions and complications that the theological speculations of the early church have added to it. "Is it possible that the movement called Modernism may turn out to be a new and greater reformation in which there will be a development away from the philosophical elaborations of the Pauline theology back to the simple religion of Jesus with its two sublime assumptions; the love of God and the worth of man? "Is it possible that Judaism will lend more and more to minimize its belief in the divine obligation of its ritual and its age-long practices, and will put its main emphasis on the pure religion of the greatest of the phophetes—the Jewish Jesus of the Synoptists?"

Dhassi Will Tell You FREE Statement of Activities of the American Civil Liberties Union Shows That Mob Violence Is Increasing in the Country Interference with meetings by the police and sometimes by State and Federal authorities, "constituted" the largest number of violations of civil rights" during the pa- year, according to a report just issued by the American Civil Liberties Union. The year also saw a "serious extension" of mob violence, due chiefly to the growth of the Ku Klux Klan, the report states. The victims of mob violence were mainly white persons, the record of Negro lynchings for 1923 being "the lowest in 30 years." Pennsylvania led the country in the number of "lawless police interferences" with labor and radicals, the report declares. Texas and Oklahoma led in mob violence, and California in prosecutions under the criminal syndicalist laws. The Federal government was "radicallyally" active against radicals "depending chiefly on the personal attitude of the head of the department involved." The Department of Justice under Daughterhose is charged with having centered its houses "of breaking up radical activity" in the trial of the constituents in Michigan "which the department had instituted." Though the "big national drive" were over, a chart for the year published in the report shows that "local anti-racial groups still expressed themselves vigorously as a result of the nation-wide propaganda designed to serve larger interests." But the year also saw "a healthy farmer-working class reaction against the forces of repression, with the result that the chart shows a decline in some forms of 'active intelligence with civil rights.'" Stating the facts of civil liberty in 1923 and summarizing the present condition of civil rights, the report outlines the work done by the American Civil Liberties Union during the past year. Impunctions gag laws and court decisions affecting opinion are set forth, and the work for amnesty for Federal political prisoners which resulted in their release by President Coolidge, is described. State prosecutions under criminal syndictist and anti-seduction laws and the campaigns waged to have these laws repealed are dealt with in the report. The fear of radicalism persisted "almost unimittual" during the year, the report states, but organized anti-red agitation was continued to a "few of thirsts" from Samuel Gompers, William J. Rums, Ellis Searles of the United Mine Workers, Ralph M. Esterel of the National Civil Federation, and R M Whitney of the Amnesty in Defense Society.

WEEKLY SERMON BY G: EMONEI CARTER Subject: "Money an Essential." Text: Beel. 19:19. Money answereth all things. In every walk of life the need of money is evidenced. Some of the world's greatest crimes have been perpetrated because of the desire for money. Some of the world's greatest deeds have gone forward through the use of money. The world has been enhanced through the use of money, and the world has been enclosed through its use in a selfish manner. But it is an essential, because that it is a necessary medium of exchange, adapted to this age and generation. Map is ever wanting. And usually he desires the greatest and best values. To possess these he must have money or its equivalent in goods, real or personal. When he has neither, he is of very little value to himself and has community. He is certainly not respected in his neighborhood as a mark of frquality and thrift, nor is he able to away the community, as one who has money values. Since all great and lasting, as well as permanent, material values have their rise in this valuable medium of exchange, he had just as well face the inevitable, and address themselves to the task of acquiring in large amount in a legitimate manner, this essential. In a school some money is an essential, because every transaction between min and main corporation and corporation is based upon confidence that each has in the other, and the confidence test in the financial standing of each or his ability to keep his work in office and centers or its equivalent. The branch has received money and accused it. Society has demanded money and received it. The nation has received money and commanded respect because of its wealth. And that race which is to have its rightful place in the affairs of men must become a race of processor of something more better than a nurse. The name must have a single and can be expressed in more than three names. Money is not an mine for money value without the thought of how it is acquired, but it is an urge to greater effect by the money, and the proper inserting of this money when once acquired. People nowiment to be careful in multiplying your money and need. Proper investment does not mean what all time you can consider with other investment, but it does mean in the selection of such "future" that possess the greatest potential possibilities, and whose ultimate end will benefit not only the individual, but the more as well. My obsession in the dressing vest has the forgoing statement: "That a rose we have very little for sight, but much bind right. I should for greater fortune. The ability to see money values in clothes must, moving to be moved into domestic force for good and grandiose. I should that we honour labor and acquire money to be used for the administration of yourself and grace. I should with you a moment of joy to see the wisdom in cooperative effort with a individual effort, and the belonging to pass the coming time, this thing through many sogle efforts combined. I know that money widely expended return in manifold values. Let us then, use this essential in such a manner in the next few days, until the world shall come to know that a determined few can become a commanding many through the proper investment of the earnings of the masses. Any prayer you may be praying can find its answer in sufficient money. You cry out treason. There is no exception but one, and even in this there are mitigated circumstances.

I expected to find His Holly neas seated in his library digging up Graeck roots, and I found him in a business office, discussing with remarkable clarity the European situation and making highly practical comments on the workaday world. I expected to find him a theologian; I found him a wide-awake business man. "Not only is he wide-awake, but he has instilled business principles in his assistants. Upon entering the Vatican I was struck with the different air that pervaded the place since my last visit. It plainly said, 'Let us get down at business.' The Holy Father leads the van in business alertness, and everybody from the veriest mental up to the highest dignitary is following in his footsteps. "His Holiness is the real Pope. There is no power behind the throne. He used the expression It is my will not fewer than six times during our short conversation. His is the determining voice; others are supposed to carry out his mandates. While he demands implicit obedience from his subordinates, he gives such obedience to his Divine Master. He seeks direction from the Most High for every move, spending five hours daily in prayer, communing with the Infinite. "I left the Vatican impressed with the belief that the Roman See was in thoroughly capable and efficient hands, and that the Holy Father was tremendously in earnest and divinely consecrated to his work."

Gittens for the benefit of the East Brooklyn Chapter on Sunday last, June 28, at their new hall, corner Troy avenue and Fulton street. The million-dollar talent, as the participants were later styled, began to assemble at an early hour and at 5 p. m., the president, Mr. Fred Brathwaite, called the meeting to order. After the invocation by the chaplain and a few remarks, by Mr. Gittens, the band rendered the national anthem, following which the welcoming address was delivered by Miss Florence Forehand. The numerous talent were of the best in the borough, among them being such stars as Mr. St. Elmo Taylor, Miss Assota Marshall, Mr. E. Sulkridge, Miss Winifred Gordon, Mr. Algon Williams and the Misses Forehand. While the selection rendered by the band were well received, the choir also came in for their mead of praise, especially in their rendering of the "Farewell" chorus, which terminated a day long to be remembered by members and friends of the East Brooklyn Chapter. The chapter, which is officered by some of the most intelligent and wideawake minds of Brooklyn, is moving forward by leaps and bounds, both numerically and financially, the credit for which is due, no doubt, to the harmonious working of its executive body.

We had a successful and interesting "pleasant Sunday Afternoon" at our Liberty Hall on June 22. The community had been attending our meetings for several Sundays in goodly numbers. The meeting was called to order at 5 p.m. by the president, Mr. Thos A. Ford, who asked Mr. John Callam, the chaplain, to open the meeting in the usual way. The chaplain then opened with the singing of the Ode from the Ritual, "From Greenland's Key Mountains." The motto was repeated and then ensued prayer. Instead of the customary address the president read passages from the well-known book, "From Superman to Man," by J. A. Rogers. He read from the 5th to the 9th page and commenting favorably on the author and his work, commending the book to everyone present. Thereafter, the president called on the Misses Elsa A. Franklin and Ruth Ferron for a duet, "Just One Touch." The singing of these ladies, who were accompanied on the organ by Miss Catherine Josephs, was loudly applauded by the audience. After a further reading from Mr. Rogers' book by the president, a trio was rendered by the Misses Franklin, Ferron and Josephs, accompanied by Mr. Joseph McField. The president again read extracts from Mr. Rogers' book and promised further reading at the next meeting. At this stage of the proceedings, Mr. Alfred Cain, the treasurer, read a short notice in the "Independent," an organ from Belize, British Honduras announcing the expected visit of Miss Henrietta Vinton Davis to that colony. He expressed the hope that Miss Davis would visit Puerto Cortez. MRS. EDITH. VALPT, Assistant Secretary. Puerto Cortez Div. No. 186.

Death of a Brother It is with much regret that we have to report the death of Mr. Wilfred Samuels, which said event took place on Thursday, June 19. On the Sunday previous to Mr. Samuels' death, he was having his usual choir practice for mass meeting when, unfortunately, a heavy downpour of rain interfered with the practice. He went to work the following Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, but returned home later on Wednesday complaining of pains in the abdomen. On Thursday, as he grew worse, medical aid was summoned, but to no avail. He breathed his last at 4:10 p. m. At 3 p. m. the next day the funeral rites were performed in Liberty Hall. Mr. Samuel's caught the vision of Garvyleism in March, 1821, and on the 31st he became a member of this division, which he served faithfully, holding various offices, viz., executive secretary, vice-president, and chair master. The latter position he maintained up to the time of his death. Mr. Samuel's has left a host of friends to mourn his loss. To the bereaved mother and sisters now in Jamaica, the Rio Canto Division tenders its deepest sympathy. CYRIL H. HEPBURN. Secretary. MUNDIN, BERKLEY, VA. The U. N. I. A. spirit is running high in West Wintem, Va., as a result of the recent visit of two African natives, Bros. T. H. Mingelly and J. W. Ekwke, who were fully able to represent the movement and to disclose the many problems concerning our motherland. Many people that at one time stood up against the U. N. I. A. are now ready to embark for Africa, and many of those that were one time members but lacked courage, to stand pat, have taken on new life, Mr. Mingolly, who is an enthusiastic speaker, urged his audience not to neglect so great a salvation as that offered by the U. N. I. A., considering that this organization was the only hope of the four hundred million Negroes of the world. We should rally to the colors of the Red, Black and Green. He asked the Hon. Marcus Garvey the savior of the Negro race and remarked that as the Jews rejected Jesus without being able to stop his great spiritual movement, so have certain Negroes, arrayed against the great organizing genius of Garvey, been impotent to stop the movement. The speaker scored the so-called missionary movement, which he characterized as hypocritical. He had found more heathens in the nine months he had been here than he had seen all his life. Moreover, the heathen here was totally devoid of racial love and racial self-respect. His compatriot, Brother Ekwae, explained several interesting African customs and exhibited many interesting products from the Motherland. Indeed, these gentlemen opened our eyes to the cruel propaganda that had for its object the destruction of our race consciousness and the alienation of the Negro from the land of his ancestors. H. J.

BAILEY 101 West 141st Street REGISTERED CHIROPODIST NEVER IXORNE BEST TROUBLES— THEY INJURE THE NEVER Manhattan Y. W. C. A. Notes HOLY CARPET SACRED TO MOSLEMS GOES TO MECCA Dispute About It Has Strained Relations of Egypt and Persia During the Past Three Years (From the New York Sun.) The dispute that for the last three years has seriously strained the relations between Egypt and Arabia and that at one time threatened to involve these two Mohammedan countries in warfare has apparently been settled. The evidence of this to the non-Moslem world was the departure yesterday from Cairo of its most ceremonial procession for Mecca with the Holy Carpet and contributions to Islamic shrines. Another evidence might be found in the fact that, Premier Zeghil, the leader of the Nationalist party, having come to peace terms with the King of Hezaz, had time to return to his favorite sport of prodding the British lion. The dispatch of the Holy Carpet and an empty camel howdah with two copies of the Koran has for years been a great religious ceremony at Calre. Last year it was not observed. The reason was that the King of Hofar refused to receive at Mecca the medical commission which was to accompany the Egyptian pilgrims. The Egyptian government instructed upon this medical commission because it desired to protect its nationalists and also to make sure that proper provisions were taken to safeguard Egypt and the West from the spread of cholera and plague. Many of the cholera epidemics which took heavy tolls of lives in Europe were traced to pilgrims who had returned to Egypt from Arabia. A quarter of a century ago the Egyptian government with the aid of the international medical commission established quarantine stations on the Red Sea coast and by the exercise of strict preventive measures halted on a very considerable extent the westward spread of Eastern plagues and cholera. Egypt received such decided advantages from this method of prevention that its government maintained that it had a right to begin its preventive campaign at Mecca. The King of Hezaz, who is proud of his acceptance of Western governmental and sanitary ideas, saw in this instance of Egypt a reflection on his ability as ruler. He declared that his decree could control the spread of epidemics from Mecca as well as an Egyptian medical commission. The dispute was finally adjusted by a compromise by which Egypt will still control the quarantine stations, but not mediate with the King of Hezaz's sanitary control of Mecca. The cutting off of the bounces and prefests which Egypt each year brought to Mecca had an effect no doubt, in causing the Arabian government to come to terms. The demeaned of the people of Cairo for the restoration of their greatest religious ceremony gave the present Zachiul government a good excuse for accepting the proposed compromise. How far these terms represent the feeling of the people of the two countries will be best determined by the reception accorded to the Egyptian pilgrims at Mecca by the Arabs of Hezaz. Great Britain has had a difficult position in this situation. The British established and have since backed the Kingdom of Hezaz, and they have endeavored to cultivate the good will of a united Arabia. At the same time they have not entirely abandoned their interest in Egypt or ceased to exercise an influence in Egyptian foreign affairs. The more raided nationalist groups of Egypt accused the British of trying to keep alive the enmity between Egypt and Arabia in order to weaken the unity of Islam. The Holy Carpet had scarcely left Carro for Mecca, than Zaghilh made his attack upon Great Britain, declaring that Egypt would insist on its rights in Sudan and would not accept the agreement made with the British by a former Egyptian government. He at least appears to believe that the trouble with Hezaz was over and he was free to lambast the British.

Dept. M012 1286 Broadway, N. Y. MR. GARVEY ON NEW IMMIGRATION LAWS (Continued from page 3) often said, is not philosophy; the human question is not music; the human question is not religion. Let me tell you, the human question is bread and butter; the human question is bread and meat. As you would not give your bread and meat even to a hungry man so will the white man not give his bread and meat to you, caring not how badly you want it. The scramble in the world today is for a larger share of bread and meat and any race in America or the world who will stand up and fight to the last man for the preservation of his bread and butter is bound to improve. It is your duty to organize your forces and intelligence in the same direction; and that is why the Universal Negro Improvement Association advances the program of an African nation for the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world. America is not in a short while going to yield enough for two competitive peoples or two competitive races; you understand that. The world in its different national confines is not going to yield enough for two competitive peoples; the worker must go down for the benefit of the stronger. And so we face this American problem. Today it is a problem of readjustment where the white man has the advantage. In another fifty years the adjustment will work itself out; and, let me tell you, in that adjustment you and I. If we know around here, are going to find ourselves in the same position we were in 1863 when Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. There are white folks looking for free labor as they got it up to 1865, but I went to one of the laborers, because every white man knows that sooner or later the Negro is going to find his level. Some leaders of the National Association say we are making progress with members of our race on the staff of the district attorney, we have started with members of our race on the bench and among the judiciary of this country, we have started with men in government positions. That is the battle. Do you know that that was the argument of the Ku Klux Klan was for all the time to argue the relationship spirit of the white people of this country? Every Negro who occupies at this time a government position a position of importance becomes a man to the Ku Klux Klan They say, "Do you see that? Do you mean to tell me that you are going to stand for Negroes being judges in your courts and for a Negro being a district attorney?" That is the argument that is around the white people of the country to a determination that the spirit of the Ku Klux Klan shall prevail. What we carried in 1931 and 1933 is going to be a terrible time and 1936 is between now and 1938. Our progress is superb all it is not real. No progress is real except that progress that is made by a people themselves. And that is why the Union of Negro Improvement Association makes this call at this hour for national-immuned row and forever is the way of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. And let me take a look at the composition, by way of elaboration, that whether Garvey lives or dies for another 10 or 20 years, it be your resolution; let it be your determination, that every hour of the day, every minute of the day, every day of the week, every week of the month, every month of the year, will count for something gone in Africa recollection, let that be your resolution to night. If we do that unjustly we need not be afraid of the future. That is my message, men and women, and I trust you will take it home. *Applause.* Land Settlement Scheme Advocated for St. Kitts The Union Messenger of St. Kitts is ennobled with the land settlement scheme initiated by the Antigua government, particulars of which appeared in the Magnet and it publishes the attaching information that the Presidency of St. Kitts does not possess the stale and valuable asset of a peasantry. The Messenger suggests that the government should buy two or three estates and cut them up into lots for the purpose of establishing a peasant propriety. If the Emigrants Protection Act is not repealed, and if it is intended that its provisions should be strictly executed then the government will have to do something to find employment for those when it forcibly detains at home.

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) severad 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. NEGRO POLITICAL UNION Among the important items to be discussed, as outlined by the above program, will be the formation of the Negro Political Union. This union will consolidate the political forces of the Negro through which the race will express its political opinion in America, in the islands of the seas and in all communities where the Negro forms a part. The Political Union shall represent the political hopes and aspirations of the fifteen million Negroes of the United States of America on American questions, domestic to America, and shall represent the 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. SECCIÓN EN ESPAÑOL Ciento veinticino mil pesos más necesarios para adquirir el primer vapor—Cuatro semanas para reunir dicha cantidad—Cooperación requerida de parte de nuestro elemento—Aportemos con todo cuanto esté a nuestro alcanse—Una gran empresa que redundará en beneficio mutuo Los planes para la colonización con el propósito de cooperar al desarrollo agrícola, industrial, económico, educativo y social de la república de Liberia, como un hogar permanente para el elemento de nuestro pueblo diseminado por el universo, quienes desean vivir en un país que puedan llamar suyo propio y donde puedan disfrutar de los beneficios de la verdadera libertad y democracia, han de ser puestos en práctica dentro de poco mediante los grandes esfuerzos y mayores sacrificios de nuestra organización. El pueblo hondadoso y hospitalario de dicha república recibe en su senc toda idea de adelanto de parte de nuestro elemento industrioso, amante a la libertad y con respeto a las leyes, constituyendo de ese modo una nación pacifica y progresista. Nuestra organización proyecta estableceralli cuatro colonias, la primera de las cuales en la sección del rio Cavalla, y cuyo primer grupo de colonos ha de partirde esta en septiembre del presente año. Para ellos se hanpresupuestado dos millones de pesos, cantidad que ha deseifir invertida eficientemente en el establecimiento y enel desenvolvimiento de cada colonia en aquella nación. En el transcurso histórico de un pueblo, de una raza, de una nación ó de un movimiento de progreso, llega el instante en que tenemos imprecindiblemente que solidifican nuestro poder por medio de la unificación de nuestras fuerzas, y tal momento se aproxima en la vida histórica de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. Por tal razón convincente ella recurre a sus miembros y en particular a nuestro pueblo universalmente, para que luego de compenetrado de los grandes beneficios que sus ideales han de reportar a la raza en general, aporte su grano de arena a la construcción del gran edificio de la civilización contemporánea, templo sagrado de una raza emancipada y de una patria redimida. Para poner en práctica los planes de colonización son imminentes los medios de transportación, y con tal objeto se organizó en marzo del presente año la nueva corporación naviera como auxiliar de esta organización. Ciento veinticinco mil pesos son necesarios para adquirir el primer vapor, cuya negociación esta actualmente en progreso. Esta cantidad debe ser reunida en el corto periodo de cuatro semanas; de otro modo hemos de perder la oportunidad de posesionarnos de una embarcación de once mil toneladas, com comodidad para más de noveceintos pasajeros, lo cual es una adquisición de gran valor para llevar a cabo el programa de emigración en que estamos empeñados. La denominación de las acciones, préstamos a la corporación, es de cincuenta, cien, doscientos, dosciento cincuenta, quinientos y mil pesos reembolsadas en un periodo de cinco años, redundando un interés de cinco por ciento anual. Cada dia, cada hora, cada minuto que transcurre contribuye extremadamente a nuestra victoria ó a nuestra derrota en este gran proyecto de adelanto. Porqué desperdiciar un instante cuando nuestra inmediata cooperación material, nos ha de facilitar los medios, para llegar al éxito? Doquiera recibamos este mensaje de apelación para un medio cooperativo, debemos responder en sentido favorable, demostrando así nuestro interés en toda empresa concientemente planteada para que ésta sea felizmente resuelta, y todo aquel accionista que haya enviado solamente una parte del importe de su acción. acciones, debe enviar inmediatamente el balance en cuestión directamente a la corporación naviera, oficinas del cuerpo directivo de la organización. Esta nueva corporación naviera, institución auxiliar de nuestra organización, ha sido creada no solamente con el objeto de transportar el elemento colonizador al continente africano, sino que también para construir y comprar toda clase de embarcación y propiedad en relación con ella, usada, en concordancia con las leyes vigentes, en el intercambio comercial a través de los mares, lagos, rios, canales y cualquier otro medio naviero, transportando cargo, correspondencia y pasaje entre aquellos puntos en-donde la raza-tenga la imperiosa necesidad de estos medios de transporte, estableciendo, por consiguiente, mayores relaciones commerciales. Además de la ruta americano-africana se establecerá, mediante previo contrato, otra ruta en el Atlántico a lo largo de toda la costa oriental de los Estados Unidos, Cánada, Nueva Escocia, las Antillas y centro y sur America, incluyendo todos los puertos ensenadas, bahías y rios navegables que a estos alfuyan; en el Pacifico, en la costa occidental de todo el continente americano, incluyendo además la navegación, en los grandes lagos, linea divisoria entre este pals y el dominio del Cánada, y en las vías navegables de otros continentes según será determinado en lo sucesivo, siendo el propósito de esta provisión el que la corporación se vea permitida a conducir sus negocios de transportación a cualquier punto del globo. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1984 El restablecimiento del gobierno constitucional en la República Dominicana ha despertado investigaciones extraoficiales sobre si el gobierno de este país pensará dar pasos similares en Haiti. Dante Bellegarde, exministro de instrucción pública, haitiano ganó un renfisimo debate para traer a la federación internacional de la Liga de las Naciones la cuestión de la ocupación militar. Una polémica preliminar ocurrió entre la comisión política, y los delegados de treinta naciones y la federación. Por temor que la discusión de la apelación de Haiti pudiera aumentar la hostilidad de los Estados Unidos hacia la Liga de las Naciones, los delegados se esforazaron por sofocar la apelación, hasados en quag la federación es incompetente para discutirla. No obstante haber ganado Bellegarde sobre este punto una controversia probando la competencia de la federación, la comisión rechazó su resolución expresando fa simpatia de la federación Haiti, pero recomendando la resolución de los Estados Unidos, sin incurarse de las acusaciones de Bellegarde y expresando satisfacción por las recientes declaraciones de Hughes que de los Estados Unidos intentan retirarse de Haiti tan pronto lo crea conveniente, pues hay ciertas obligaciones va contraidas. El exministro declaró que durante los nueve años del régimen militar, la ley marcial que los Estados Unidos impuso al país, no imprimió el más ligero progreso moral educacional; que como ministro de instrucción pública no le fue posible asegurar la autorización del consejero financiero de los Estados Unidos para los fondos destinados a la educación pública en Haiti; que igualmente, las exportaciones del país especialmente de café, no habian aumentado, precipiando la más gravy crisis comercial, que ahora investiga la cámara de comercio haitiana. Manifesta asimismo que la entera vida política, económica y moral del país se hallaba disurbada por la imposición de un gobierno inconsistencial por los Estados Unidos. El demandará en la sesión del próximo martes la adopción de una resolución más efectiva que la recomendada por la comisión. Sobre una disputa internacional La ruptura por Inglaterra de sus relaciones diplomáticas con Méjico parece a primera vista una cosa sorprendente en un gobierno laborista. Pudiera pensarse inconsistente con el anuncio de su política exterior hecho por el primer ministro MacDonald ante una gran concurrencia en el Royal Albert Hall el 13 de mayo. Declaró entonces que su gobierno habia resuelto modificar la conducción de los asuntos extranjeros y adoptar una nueva política en un nuevo espiritu. Iba a haber una política de amistosa razón abandonando enteramente todo pensamiento de meterle los puños por la cara a nadie. Era su determinación especial, declaró, contemplar los intereses y consultar la dignidad de los menores países. Dijo que su corazón estaba con las pequeñas naciones. Naturalmente, hablaba principalmente para Europa, pero la doctrina amplia que estaba exponiendo debería necesariamente aplicarse a Méjico. En la mala inteligencia diplomatica con ese pais ha habido al parecer descortesias y provocaciones por ambas partes. El gobierno mejicano, tiene evidentemente el derecho de solicitar el relevo de un agente diplomatico británico que no es va bien acogido en Méjico y no rinde ya ningun servicio a su país alli. Pero el objeto debería cumplirse sin emplear palabras ofensivas, y esto, de parte de gobierno de Méjico, es al parecer lo que ha resentido a MacDonald. Aunque sea por convicción un pacifista, o al menos por sus anteriores gestiones, y aunque sea un primer ministro laborita comprometido a procedimientos dulemente razonables de intercambio internacional, y al desarme general, no puede olvidar que es el representante del Imperio Británico, y debe velar celosamente por su prestigio entre las naciones. Su actual actitud habia Méjico es indudablemente enderezada a convencer a Inglaterra de que sus asuntos extranjeros se hallan en manos seguras. En ese sentido es buena tactica para el partido laborista. Pero requerirla algún tiempo al mundo extranjero evitar el asombrarse ante el espectáculo de la actitud de MacDonald coportandose en una disputa internacional.

IRTEV Presidente General. Tecnicismo de una ley El comienzo de unímigra a un de esta cueva del llama. Ejemplo con el columna de que la organización por la limitación de la cueva baja la nueva ley esta lista para funcionar. Si funciona según los planes, no la brá mas regresas para llegar al puerto con tiempo de desemburtnamiento en Niuea York. No habrá más rechazo de inmigrantes en esta ladera del océano a causa de que sus cuetas han quedado agotadas. Los consíles americanos expedran certificados a los inmigrantes en perspectiva hasta que las cuetas estén llenas. Entonces no se expedirán más certificados. La cuenta se llevará automáticamente al otro lado del océano. La prueba de la nacionalidad continua siendo el lugar de nacimiento pero se hacen importantes excepciones a esta regla. La nacionalidad de un niño menor de edad es determinado por la de sus padres si le acompañan. Cuando le nacionalidad de una mujer difiere de la de su esposo, y la cuota dentro de la cual sería contada normalmente está agotada, puede asumir da nacionalidad de su esposo. Es de esperar que la mayor parte de los trágicos absurdos de tan intiqua le sean ahora evitados. La nueva ley de inmigración ha empezado a surtir sus efectos y dos familias se hallan en cuarentena llorando las consecuencias de lo que podríamos llamar tecnicismos de la lay. La señora Lucarelli, esposa de un prospero comosciente de esta, ciudadano de los Estados Unidos y que lleva en este pais muchos años, ha sido detenida por haber llegado de Italia con un hijo de dieciocho meses de edad pacido en aquel país. Los otros seis hijos son americanos y la madre está extenta de cuota; pero el niño como e nacido en Italia; no puede ser admitido a no ser que se le conoce un permiso especial por el departamento correspondiente. El otro caso es el de la señora Aquina, nacidad en Nueva York y casada con, un rico importador de esta ciudad que habiendo llegado en primera a este país hace unos días rehuso salir de cuarentaena porque se le nego la entrada a sus hijos de corta edad que nacieron en el extranjero. Esta, cuyos padres y abuelos eran residentes de los Estados Unidos desde hace más de cuencita años, se casó hace cuatro años con Thomas L. Aquina y salieron de viaje para Italia acompañados de la madre del novio que debido a la enfermedad continuada de la señora se le aconsejo permaneciera en el extranjero, donde los dos recien casados llegaron a tener dos hijos. Con su niño de tres años y la niña de uno y tres meses, llegaron a Nueva York en el vapor Conte Rosso y aunque venía en primera clase, fueron detenidos. Las autoridades declafan que los padres pueden entrar; pero que los niños deben de ser deportados según el acta Dillingham que la cuna de nacimiento determina la nacionalidad del individuo. Por no ser separados de sus niños, los esposos Aquina han aceptado quedarse en la laisa como extranjeros acompañantes y esperan todos juntos la orden de ser deportados. La causa filipina en Nueva York La convención democratica será requerida a incluir, en el programa o plataforma del partido para la proxima lucha presidencial, una clausula en favor de la completa e inmediata independencia de las Filipinas. La mission de independentistas que dirige el ilustre y viguro presidente del senado de Manila, tiene esperanzas de trunfatar en su gestión. Ninguna causa más diguna de total victoria. Y ninguna, en la impareciabilidad política a que La Prensa se cíne, que tenganas vibrante, incondicional y sincera simpatía para nosotros en los delatos del Madrón Sutera Garden. Filipinas debe compur un puerto en la consideración de los pueblos de puerta a tazac que no puede para elido.

Los envases de España pudieron colgar en madera España para combatir sin madera Cumido el último soldado la partida de Filipinas. La claura de España estaba en determinio a los oper- naces se hacían con los enemigos de la supervivencia de en memoria Peno lo que percibe pedido con el desastre militar y pointe lo, lo salvo el espíritu popular filipino. Luchando con la invasión de cultura sajona que los maestros de los Etochos Undos han sentrado por todo el país, el idioma, la religión, el español y el recuerdo de España surgión con más impetu, con más arraigo y con más sinceridad que cuando sus administradores y su soldados los imponian por ley. En regiones donde no llegaron a Suenarse los acentes de nuestra lengua, se habla hoy español. En provincias que lucharon contra los españoles furiosamente, se reconoce y admira hoy lo que tuvo de bueno su gobierno. Y en todo el país, conno un latido profundo y unificador, por los centenares de islas y a través de las poblaciones de dialectos distinidos, el español, que no se enseña en las escuelas se habla en competencia con el inglés y dominando el cuanto es popular, nacional, filipino, en fin. Esto es lo que Flipinas' trata de preservar y conservar con su independencia. Raramente podra señalarse el caso de un pueblo que tan consciente y serenamente pida la secesión, probando con dignidad y reclamando con firmeza sus. derechos al gobierno propio. Filipinas, que ya ha elaborado una raza pro- pia, está orgulloasa de su afinidad hispanica. Sus más ilustres reprepen senantes lo proclaman, la juventud lo grita cuando un Blasco Ibáñez pisa tierra nacional y el pueblo con consagra en una manifestaciones políticas constantes. Filipinas tientanto derecho a la independencia como cualquier otra república dispana. —La Prensa, N. Y. Les révolutions in France (Le Courrier Haitien.)

OUR WOMEN GETTING INTO THE LARGER LIFE THE world wide movement for the enlargement of woman's sphere of usefulness is one of the most remarkable of the ages. In all countries and in all ages men have arrogated to themselves the prerogative of regulating not only the domestic but the civic and economic life of women. In many countries women were subject entirely to the whims and legislation of men. It is that way now in most Asiatic countries and among some of the tribes of Africa. The recent upheaval in Turkey has carried with it condemnation of the harem relations and the sanction of the family life as it has developed in Christian countries. Madam Kemal is the leader of the Turkish women for larger freedom in the ordering of their lives, but the innovation, which is bound to work for the betterment of men as well as women, as the harem life is a blight on womanhood which degrades manhood as well, could only have been accomplished by the separation of Church and State, the Sultanate and the Caliphate, which amounts to negating the hitherto predominating influence of the Mohammedan religion in the affairs of State as of Church. However far the innovation will extend to other Moslem countries, and what influence, if any, it will have on the domestic life of the people of Asia and Africa, where the Mohammedan religion is strong, remains to be seen. In Europe average womanhood has been held at a very low valuation until it got into the recently developed currents of modern innovation, and the average still remains low, peasant life for the man and the woman and their children being of the lowest and hardest. Only in Great Britain has the movement for the larger and better life for women, by allowing them reasonable voice in making and enforcing the laws, made any appreciable headway. The United States has gone further than any other nation in giving woman a share in making and enforcing the laws and in regulating her economic life to her advantage and not entirely to the advantage of man. She is now given an equal part in political matters, and she is allowed a freedom in earning and controlling her earnings which is a great improvement upon the former of old things. In social and personal matters the American woman has attained to an independence and freedom which it will take centuries for the women of other nations to attain to. Negro women of the United States share equally in the larger life which has come to women, of other race groups, and she has met every test in the home, in bread winning, in church and social upbuilding, in charitable uplift work, and in the school room which could have been expected of her reasonably. She has yet to develop as active interest in political affairs as the women of other race groups, but she is bound to grow in this as in other matters in which her interests are involved. The women of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have shown an interest and a helpfulness so far flung as to make it doubtful if the organization could have reached the high point of strength end effectiveness it has without them. To take woman and her sympathies and work out of the association would be like taking the wife out of the home of the husband. The women of the association are a tower of strength. They know it and glory in the fact, and their men are proud of them, and justly. The success of the Negro race thus far has been largely due to the sympathy and support which our women have given to the cause. Our women are getting into the larger life which has the womanhood of the world in its sweep. We are sure they will be equal to all of the demands made upon them in the future as in the past, and the demands are going to increase in volume and importance as we go along. It stands to reason. Japanese Women Join To "Lift" Themselves TOKIO, June 25—Following the lead of "emancipated" women in other parts of the world, the women of Japan have joined hands in an effort to "t lift their social plane." And, more than that, they predict that they will take a hand in politics. The organization known as the Women's Labor Party is comprised of three classes: Wives of wealthy men and women from prosperous families; women of the middle class, and working women. The wealthy women will do the financing, the middle class women the work, and the working women will reap the benefits. One in a Million BUFFALO, -- Patrolman John J. Gleason on trial before Mayor Schuh for failing sleep while on duty, declared he worked so hard for his wife in the daytime that he could not keep awake at night. Mayor Schuh dismissed the charges. A THOUGHT There are better men behind an hour dishonorable success Crowning Glory Her Life Saver Unhobbed hair probably saved the life of Mrs. Bertha Zwicker when she was struck over the head with a heavy iron bar by a bandit who entered her apartment, at 1356 Clinton avenue, by posing as an inspector for the New York Edison Company. A physician who treated Mrs. Zwicker said the skull likely would have been crushed. If the neck coll of hair had not stopped the force of the blow. The bandit worked an hour over the electric meter in the place before getting into action. Noting two diamond rings, each worth $400, he asked Mrs. Zwicker to write a letter explaining that he had been seriously at work on the meter. He struck the blow as she was writing, but frightened by her outcrops, fled without taking the rings or the iron bar. SMILES SMILES The Boomerang A dairy farmer living in a small town was recently summoned to appear before the local magistrate on a charge of selling cheese under weight. The complainant was the village grocer, who felt he was being wronged when he discovered that every pound of the farmer's fell below the weight that a pound ought to be. "Have you a pair of scales?" asked the magistrate of the farmer. "No, your honor, I have no weights." "You have no weights! How, then, can you weigh your cheese?" "That is very simple, your honor. Since the grocer has bought his cheese from me, I buy my bread from him, and his one-pound loaves serve me as weights to weigh my cheese. If the cheese does not weigh what it should, it is the grocer's fault, and not mine, you see." RECIPE RECIPE Scalloped Hominy Arrange in a baking dish alternate layers of boiled coars hominy (this may be obtained in cann, bought in many marketa cooked, or purchased by the pound, dry), alternating with minced sausage, ham, lefever meats or grated cheese; add a cup of white sauce and bake for thirty minutes. Another balanced, appetizing one-dish dinner served with a sael: Strips of bacon across the top would be an addition when cheese or only a small amount of fresh meat is used. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1924 WOMEN WHO REFUSE RESPONSIBILITY OF PARENTHOOD TRAITORS TO RACE, ASSERTS COLLEGE PRESIDENT VOCATION FOR WOMEN MEANS OF SUPPORT BEFORE MARRIAGE AND SOMETIMES AFTER The question that is invariably put to children: "What are you going to be when you grow up?" might with more sense be asked of young college students male and female. In their case, however, the reply is pretty sure to be vague, and very often they frankly admit that they, do not know, because they have no particular bent. The little boy knows he is going to be a brakeman or a street car driver (motorman), and his sister has ideals quite an exact. Here is a point that some people make to count against the innocent college. President Morgan, of Antioch College, a vocational college for men and women, said in a recent interview that he heard a man on a train express himself like this: "I have given my daughter the best education I know how, and now she has gone and married a farmer." This father's disappointment grew out of a mistaken idea that scholarship should be the controlling idea or aim, and that marriage and a home are a throwing away of the fruits of education. That his child should select a farmer was only adding fuel to the flame of frustrated ambition. Every Girl Wants a Vocation The case was somewhat unusual. How many young college graduates among women, would look forward to a happy life on a farm after commencement, no matter how deeply in love they might be with the farmer husband? How many, indeed, are able to see the possibilities of a full life on a farm? To have studied in a school like Antioch College might and undoubtedly would have given the girls a different viewpoint. "Our girls," said President Morgan, "have come to have too much respect for themselves to be content to sit weekly in the marriage market waiting for a proposal. Naturally they desire home and family, but they desire these things on terms of dignity and honor." To protect themselves from the necessity of angling for a biddor or from accepting the "crooked stick" rather than be left a burden on a brother of other male relative, women see the necessity of preparing themselves for a calling. "Every girl with a purpose," proceeds Mr. Morgan, "wants a vocation which will permit her to live with dignity, usefulness and interest. Antioch girls are preparing themselves for a great variety of vocations; Librarians, nurses, institutional managers, journalists, domestic school teachers, doctors of medicine, high school teachers and many other positions." President Morgan, who admitting the willingness of American young women to adopt this new view of education and life does not fall to see a dilemma which he describes as follows: "The tendency of the vocational school is to emphasize the attitude of self-reliance too far sometimes. By the time a woman has put several years of good hard work into the preparation for a calling and perhaps a few years into the practice of it, she tends to become a business woman, and to give up all hope and expectation of home and family. "Vocational schools have emphasized that attitude. The habit of the vocation becomes so strong and its interest so fixed that home means sacrifice. A young woman said to me: "Here I have spent years in becoming thoroughly prepared for my calling, and I love it. I can't follow my calling and bring up babies and I can't come to the point of giving up the results of all that hard work of preparation just when success is coming to me." Ignorant Motherhood Causes Barbarianism. "There have been periods in human history," said President Morgan, "in India, Egypt, Greece and Rome when women came into their own, when they were highly, respected, and had freedom to live as they chose. It was left to themselves, each for herself, to choose the exacting, even though satisfying, life of home and children or the easier freedom which childlessness permitted. Too often they chose freedom, with the result that to a very large degree women of intelligence and culture were childless, while motherhood was left to a lower type of women, too stupid to take part in general and varied interests. The inevitable result of such a course was a lapse into barbarianism as soon as intelligent motherhood had eliminated itself. "There is no divine assurance that America will keep its greatness. In any community where intelligent people do not assume the responsibility of parenthood barbarism will follow in a few generations. "Our intelligent young men and women have inherited all that is fine from the ages that have passed. Only through them can that inheritance be transmitted to the future. The woman who decides that she personally will not assume the responsibilities of parenthood is a traitor to the race. No amount of social service or skillful government can make up for that irreparable loss, and no idignant revolt of feminism can alter that fundamental biological fact. "An education which sees the end and aim of women's education to be preparation for a calling, with 'the probable or necessary sacrifice of a home and family, is far from the last word." These questions are very poignant today, with young women who are seriously preparing for a life work. Each one has to answer for herself whether she will prepare thoroughly with the aim to pursue a "business" or profession all her days or just enough well so that she can hold on to it till the "right" man comes along and asks her to marry. The Proper Training for Girls "For the girls a training in home management is required. The aim is to develop all around general intelligence and interest in the world about them, to make them suitable companions for men and women of intelligence and culture and prepare them for effective citizenship. "But what about vocation?" Antloch fully believes that a woman should be prepared to live a useful and interesting life, so that a home and family will be an opportunity to be accepted if it comes as a fulfillment of her hopes and ideals, but not as a necessity to be waited for and grasped under any conditions. The Value of Education "Every girl with a purpose, therefore, wants a vocation, a means by which she can live a life of dignity, usefulness and interest. She can fit herself for it, and it will give her an honorable support until she has a home, it will prove a resource to fall back upon should she have to support herself and her children. Or, if not, it will give a renewed interest when her children are grown. "She will retain some at least of her vocational interests during her whole life. Through practical contact with people she will have learned how to become an effective member of society and a good citizen. Whatever fortune may bring to her, she will be tempered to it and ready to make it serve her life purposes. The greatest of these, life purposes, whether in a home or in business, will be to preserve unimpaired her inheritance from the past of aspiration, character, health and friendship, and to pass it on strengthened, puffed and ennobled because she has done a woman's work in the world"—N. Y. Times. An Observer Describes Women's Customs in Legendary Greece Men and Women Dress Much Alike By FRANK G. CAMPBELL In The Globe I wish I could lift up a half dozen of farmers, from the back districts of Greece by the papes of their necks and drop them down into the heart of St. Louis or Boston. In their Sunday dress one could hardly tell whether they were women or men, except by the boards of the latter. The men seem clad for the stage rather than the field, and they might pose as ballet dancers. They wear knee breeches and leggings, above which are several white skirts which stand out from the body like those on the maid in the flesh-colored tights which dances on the horse in the circus. 'Reaching to the waist and covering the shoulders and arms is a vest, richly embroidered, and a few cap tops the outfit. Their shoes, of red leather, turn up at the toes like old-fashioned skates, and have fat, red woolen tassels at the tips. What the Women Wear The costumes of the Greek country women vary according to the locality. Their dresses are usually flowing, and they look well on the long-legged maidens. A common field gown is of linen homespun, falling from the neck armort to the feet. Over this is worn a sleeveless sack of white wool which reaches to the thighs. The headwear is a knit or felt cap of bright red, or perhaps a gay-colored handkerchief. These girls are uniformly straight; due largely to the heavy burdens which they wear on their heads. They are intelligent, industrious and thrifty, and they add to the earnings of the farm by the industries they carry on in their homes. Every girl is expected to spin, weave and embroider her own wedding gown, which has a linen skirt loaded with silk. There is so much silk decoration on some of the gowns that they alone weighs one or two pounds. The Story of Persephone The dances of the Greek country girls carry one back to the days of the classics. I saw one at Eleusis, where Demeter was worshiped, and the art of agriculture was its beginning. You may remember the story. Pluto, the god of Hades, had carried off Persephone, the daughter of Demeter, and Demeter was hunting her. She came to Eleusis disguised as an old woman and the King there entertained her so well that she gave seed corn to his son, and taught him to farm. She found Persephone and ar- FACE BEAUTIFIER If your FACE is to show or dark, it your SKIN to full-of-PADS, LIVES, SPOTS, "BURPS", TAN, JEWELERS, WHAT to want to/OLEAR up BRONZEEN up the SKIN-if you are to MOTIFY your compilation; LOSE NO TIME!

PEDRO MIGUEL'S OLD MAIDS CLUB HOLDS OPEN MEET Toonerville's Star, Bachelors Awarded 'Honorable Mention and Declared the "Sea-Serpent's Adenoids" With the Ladies PANAMA.-The Old Maid's Club of Pedro Miguel met in open session at the local clubhouse Thursday evening. June 13, their expressed object being to acquaint the bachelor element and unattached married men of Toonerville and environs with the charms of their members and incidentally to broadcast the aims of their organization—with the paradoxical hope of depleting their membership at the expense of the male eligibles of the town. The meeting was called to order promptly at 8 o'clock by Spinister President Ewing, and following roll call the secretary's report was read and the past activities of the club and their expenditures for the past year published and discussed. The largest expense item was for matrimonial journals, but a more economical program for the ensuing year was suggested by the reporter present by means of intensive advertising in his periodical. The suggestion made was adopted by the club and several desirable advertising contracts were secured, some of the members wisely entering into annual contracts for daily publication of their ads. The only man present at the club meeting, in addition to the reporter, was Mr. Doolittle, brother of one of the invalid members, Mr. Doolittle was Summer Sale COOL Summer Dress of Newest Material, Raised Dot VOILE & Embroidered Chiffon Organdie ONLY 298 C.O.D.

It is on account of this legend that the Greek still hold their farming festivities there. The Bride's Dowry At the dance the girls wore costumes of silk embroidered with gold. Their heads were covered with vells of fine silk, the ends of which were gold-striped, and on their breasts were squares of gold coins, so strung that they extended from shoulder to shoulder. I was told that the breastplates are the girls' dowries, and that each represents the money she will bring to her husband in marriage. Every bride here is expected to have a dowry and to add her share of the fund which the groom has laid up for starting housekeeping. In some parts of Greece the father's daughter is supposed to bring a trousseau of at least three costumes. One is for every-day wear, one for Sundays, and the other for festivals. The Sign of Happiness The wedding party comes to the church mounted on mules, with a man in front playing the flagpipe. After him come the bridegroom and his friends, and behind is the bride, who must be silent all the way there. Following her are the mules bearing the doxy. As the married couple leave the church their friends throw candles at them. The couple goes to the house of the groom. Here the groom enters first and shuts the door. After that the bride is led up. She first sineares the closed door with honey and then throws a ripe pomegranate at it. If the pomegranate breaks and the seeds stick in the honey, it is a sign that her marriage life will be happy. As the pomegranate strikes the door, the husband opens it and offers his bride bread and salt. She dips the bread into the salt and eats it, and then touches some water and oil. After this the husband lifts her inside the house and puts her in a corner with her back against the wall. She stays there, without speaking, while the man and his friends are eating the wedding dinner, and it is not until the last guest leaves that she may turn around and make her if at home. This is probably the one time of her life when every Xylophone is silent. Suggestions to Housewives Sour your milk basins with salt every week to keep them sanitary and clean. Clear hum fat is best for frying eggs. With butter they burn or blacken, and lard gives them an unpleasant taste. When the whites of eggs have been used and the yolks are not required immediately, put them in a dish and barely cover them with cold water. Place a plate on the dish to exclude the air and stand in a dark, cool place. Black mosquito notting used as a foundation in darning boys' stockings will greatly lessen the trouble of darning, and will prove a good foundation for the darn.

After routine business was disposed of the gum drops were passed by the secretary, following which the individual members reported on their experiences with the rabid male element of the town since its last meeting, and in this connection Julius Bashner, Jim Cook, Lou Wright, Charlie Buttera, Stauleg Wright, Sap Hartman and others received honorable and much envied mention. These bachelors must certainly be the sea-sperant's adenoids with the ladies. There was much heated discussing regarding their highly developed methods. After consideration of new applicants for membership, one of whom precipitated an undignified hair pulling match by her refusal to swear obliance to the club's president, each of the members rendered a discourse on "Love" and its ravishings, and as a finale the club sang its "Anthem" and gave its club yell in chorus. The meeting adjourned at 9:30 p.m. This public meeting of the Old Maid's Club of Pedro Miguel is a playlet very credibly rendered by the ladies aid for the benefit of their society and the performance will be repeated at Balboa and the army posts.

CHINE L'accord avec les Soviets One mande de Pékin qu'un décret a été publié, ratifiant l'accord sino-russe. Le gouvernement chinois a répondu à la note du Japon, insistant pour que ses intérêts et privilèges sur le chemin de fer de l'Est chinois ne soient pas affectés par cet accord. Il déclare que la Chine ne peut pas accepter de telles réserves. Une réponsesemblable a été faite à l'Angtletterre et à la France qui avaient adressé à la Chine.des notes analogues à celle du Japon sur le même sujet. L'envoyé des Soviets à Pékin avient la Chine et étabir une ambasade à Moscou. L'ANNIVERSAIRE DE L'INDEPENDENCE AMERICAINE Par le DR. ALONZO P. HOLLY Le 4 Juillet, 1924, a marqué le 148e anniversaire de l'Indépendance americaine. Lets citoyens, comma de coustume, ont patriquement. observé l'anniversaire de la Grande République Etioile. C'est un anniversaire qui deyait être observé dans le monde entier, non-seulement par les citoyens américains propriment dits, mais par tous ceux qui ont bénéfici, directement qui indirectement, des bienfaits innombrables dont ils ont joui, et qui découvert des principes, consacrés dans la constitution americaine, par les patriotes qui, ont proclamée l'indépendance de cette république, le 4 Juillet, 1776. En effet, et à vrai dire, la constitution des Etats-Unis de l'Amérique du Nord est dévenue l'égide des libertés morales et politiques des peuples opérimés. Il en est résulté que les Etats-Unis sont devenus le "MECCA" de ces peuples qui ont pu évoluer, sans entraves, sans les plis protecteur du "Star-Spangled Banner." Mais, à part ces considérations d'ordre politique, il y en a une autre qui mérite une attention toute particulière. Cette considération est celle qui a fait de la nation américain, LA GRANDE BIENFAITRICE du monde entier! Les malheurs qui ont frappé les divers peuples ont toujours touché et attendir l'âme nationale des Etats-Unis, dont les citoyens ont versé leur or par des millions incalculables, dans leurs efforts à soulager les victimes de, ces malheurs. A chaque fois, donc, que les patriotes américains observent l'anniversaire de leur indépendance, les peaches du monde entire qui en ont bénéficie de raient rendre de sincères actions de graces à Dieu, à l'occasion de cette date si memorable 4 Juillet! LES HOMMES DE COULEUR A PARIS *(Journal de la Guyane Faurais.)* Le journal Pairs-Soir a ouvert une enquête. De quoi se compose Paris à laquelle participent des écrivains et des hommes politiques: M. Jear Ajalbert a parle des Auvergnats M. de Moro-Giafferi, des Corses M. Gouyba, des Frances Gomtois; M. Henri Briand, des Lyonnais, etc. Le député du Senegal, M. Blaise Diagne a participer à l'enquête de Paris-Soir en parlant des hommes de couleur—appellation des noirs et de ceux qui en sont issus, dit-il. Nous sommes heureux de reproduire le passage suivants de l'article de M. Blaise Diagne. Des noirs et des hommes de couleur dans Paris? Je crois qu'il y en a, et dans tous les miheux, et de toutes les nationalités. Cest l'Amérique noire notamment, avec ses jazz et ses boxeurs parmi des hommes d'affaires et des intellectuels hommes ou femmes. Cest Haiti, dont la culture française est ici représentée par des diplomates au talent d'orateur remarqué jusqu'à la Société des Nations, des medecins, des hommes de lettres, des étudiants, et des hommes politiques que les révolutions locales exilient passoirs. C'est nos colonies, surtout, qui fournissent la majorie partie de la population parisienne noire. Depuis le quartier Latin où une nombreuse jeunesse colorée lutte d'émulation pour le développement de jour en jour agrandi une elite coloniale prometteuse d'un bel essor, jusqu'au quartiers ouvrir de la capitale, partout. Thonne de couleur affirme sa présence. Cest tout la laventir d'une race qui se forge ici avec une belle tonicau pour le profit certain de la plus grande France. Hier, les Français, ignorants de la géographie univériselle, savaient à peine que les colonies existaient. Un noir sur le boulevard, c'était, pour beaucoup, la réclame du savon du congo, ou d'un fabricant de cirage . . . quand il n'était pas pris pour le manger de lapin' cru à la foire de Neulilly. Et, même à l'heure actuelle, je ne suis pas bien sur que pour certains, Bastling Siki, puéril phénomène répondant à son milieu professionnel, ne soit pas le prototype du noir parision. Cependant la guerre, avec ses phalanges de combattants de toutes races, a fini d'ouvrir tant soit peu les yeux de beaucoup sur la France noire. Créoles des vieilles colonies Sengalais, Soudanais, Guinenc, Dahomens, Congolais et Malgaches, tous ont marché au feu et y ont laissé du sang pour la patrie commune. Aujourd'hui nos colonies sont mieux connues dans leur représentation sociale au sein de la vie parisienne. Poetes, litérateurs, peintres, sculpteurs ont à qui mieux mieux traduit la part des noirs dans l'Epopée. Mais, ce qu'on ne sait pas assez c'est qu'à coté de ce que la guerre a directement fait surgir. Paris a toujours eu sa colonie d'homme de couleur qui, dans tous les domaines, apportent leur part de lustre à l'orgueil l'imitime de la race. Cela, avant et après 1848, date de l'Emancipation définitive des noirs. Nous avons vu et voyons dans l'élite des universitaires, des diplomates et des hommes politiques. Citer des noms d'actualité? Pas tous à coup sur, mais quelques-uns dont les autres s'enroucheiront. Au Barreau, Delmont et le senateur ancient sous-secrétaire d'Eatat Lémery qui honorent par leur talent leurs confrères blancs. Dans la marine et l'armée, le capitaine de vaisseau polytechnicien Mortenol, colonel d'artillerie de réserve, à qui Galliéni confia la défense contre avions du camp retranché de Paris pendant la-guerre, le médecin inspecteur des troupes coloniales Dumas, et le colonel d'infanterie coloniale Maritz. A la Chambre des dépôts, mes excelents collègues Gasparin, Iagrosilière, Bois neuf et Candace, qui marquent brillant leur place. Dans les lettres, Maran, prix Goncourt; dans le journalisme, Gerville-Réache et Isaac; dans la médecine, le docteur Vitalien, ancien médecien et conseiller de Ménèlick; à l'Opéra, la grande cantatrice Mlle Lubin, et bien d'autres encore. Nous sommes, nous aussi, on le voit, noirs et gens de couleur une grande province d'outremer dans Paris qui nous reserre tous, du plus grand au plus humble, dans une solide cordialité fraternelle. Cela nous permet de rester fier-men nous-mêmes, car nous sommes parmi les meilleur ouvriers de la plus grande France de demein c'est-a-dire de celle qui n'aura plus a craindre qu'auuc peuple, Allenmages ou autre, ose l'assaillir et las distraire de l'oeuvre-fénde de la paix. Le lieutenant Maughan vole de New-York a San-Francisco en une journee Chaque jour nous vaut un nouvel exploit d'aviation. Le lieutenant americain Russel Maughan vient de traverser les Etats-Unis, soit 4 200 kilomètres, et une journée. Voici la dépche annoncant la prowesse: San-François, 24 Juin — Le lieutenant-aviateur Maughan a effectué entre Laube et le crepuscule, le par cours New-York-San-François, soit une distance de 4 200 kilomètres. Il a fait cinq esciades en cours de route. Cest à 3 hqures 59 que Maughan prit son vol, lundi matin; son moteur ne lui donnant pas toute satisfaction, il change d'appareil à Dayton et perdit de ce fait 40 minutes. Il fit escale ensuite à Saint-Joseph, Cheyenne, Saldupo et Reno. Il attent à San-François, oligotif de son voyage, 21 heures 48 minutes après départ, ce qui donne une mouvement horaire de 192 milomètres 500. Cette performance extraordinaire fait le plus grand honneur à Flahille te et à l'endurance du pilote. Le heintenant Maughan n'est d'ailleurs pas un incompa. C'est lui qui, à la fin de 1922, batt le record du monde de Sadi Leconte avec une moyenne de 355 à l'heure. Son vol ne fut pas homologue et c'est celui du général Mitchell qui fut officiellement. Duil, en 1925, leque Sadi Leconte en recoupi que ce qui semblait jusqu'ailors son bien, réalisant en février le 375 à l'heure. Maughan se remit en pièce et le levitui recordman, pas pour longtemps d'ailleurs, le heintenant Brown tait un mieux le lendemain et ctant vite détrône à son tour par le heintenant Williams. Adipitions sans reserve de nouvel exploit aérien et faion remarquer qu au cours du vol lavandre, changé trois fois diaparet. Cela ne fait, pratiquement, qu'il monter à la valeur du raid. Il est certain que, plus tard, c'est avec des relais que effectuerent les longs voyages et il est bon de démonter unesemblable entreprise est des maintenant réalisable. L'offensive américaine contre les records a repris avec ensemble Avant-bier, les lieutenants Wead et Price ont reçu à bafire ceux de distance et de duree en hydravision. Tournant sur un circuit, ils ont convert 1,550 kilomètres en 13 heures 23 minutes. Nous signalerons, comme fiche de consolation, le beau voyage que vient d'effectuer le pilote Vanuer sur la ligne Toulouse-Maroc. Sansedi, il quitta Malaga, à 9 heures, avec le courrier du Maroc et arrivà à Toulouse à 19 heures. Le lendemain, il s'elevait de Toulouse à 5 heures, 30 et atterrissait à Malaga à 15 heures 30, ayant ainsi couvert 2,650 kilomètres sur un avion commercial en moins de deux jours. JAPON Les relations ruso-japonaises On mande de Tokyo: Il est très probable que le nouveau cabinet japonais manifestera la plus grande conciliation à l'égard de la Russie. On estime généralement que le Japon annoncera une date pour l'évaluation de Sakhaline, comme préliminaire à la conference russo-japonais. Saint-Domingue—Le Traité conclu avec les Etats-Unis prévoyant l'évacuation de la République Dominicaine par les troupes américaines a été signé—Le Gouvernement Provinatoire était représenté par le Général Vasques, Président Elu de Santo-Domingo ainsi que par MM.

Des innovations ont été introduites dans notre projet de Constitution. Ainsi, il y est dit: pour être député, il faut être né dominicain; la dominicaine sachant lire et citer pourra être électrice, etc. etc. Haiti représentée au Bureau de la presse Latine à Paris Sur la proposition de M. Maribona, le Bureau permanent de la press latine, a décidé d'accepter, à l'avenir, dans son association, tous les journaux qui appartiennent à des populations de culture et d'expression latine, sans tenir, compte du statut politique les lequel vivent ces populations, étant donné que la presse latine a affirmé suffisamment, depuis son, premier. Congrès de Lyon, qu'elle poursait seulement un objectif de solidarité sentimentale et de civilisation spirituelle, parfaitement compatible avec le loyalisme de ces diverses populations envers leur drapeau politique. Sur la proposition de M. Lesca, il fut decidée que les journaux du Canada, de la Louisiana, des iles Maurice, Haiti, Philippines, Porto-Rico et autres pays quise trouvaient dans les mêmes conditions, seraient conviés à faire partie du Bureau de la Press latine a Paris. MAHTMA GANDHI L'Inde l'a surnommé Mahtma—la Grande Ame—l'Anglerette a trouvé en lui un adversaire contre lequel ne puit rien toute la coalition des forces de l'Empire. En realité, il se nomme Mohandas·Karamchand Gandhi, c'est un homme pétit à visage d'ascète, son corps est débile, et sa voix sans ardeur. Il est mortel et n'use d'aucun sortilège. Cet homme cependant a ébranlé le British Empire, et sa volonté tient les rêves de trois cent millions de consciences indiennes. Après les biographies de Beethoven et de Tolstoi, Romain Rolland nous devait l'histoire de cet autre Grand Initie. Si Gandhi die estieu, c'est à force d'aprendre. Cet indien, qui n'ignore rien de a civilisation occidentale, a un jour compris l'ianité de sa puissance. L'esprit seul est naître, la souffrance seule est souveraine, et par trois fois il vient de le prouver en figueant l'Inde entière dans la non-coopération. Il abomine la violence, il exerce la demagogie. "Non-violence oppose toute la force de l'ame à la volonté du tyran." Un seul homme peut ainsi défier un empire et provoquer sa chute. dit-il quelque part. Et où puise-t-il tant de surhuainaire et de générence révolète? Dans sa souffrance, la grande loi, l'insigne de la tribu humaine. De telles vertus s'accordent admirablement avec la légalité. Pendant longtemps, l'Anglerteer ne trouva pas une fissure dans la conscience de Gandhi qui lui permettet de faire intervenir le levier d'une loi et de forcer ainsi l'édifice. Mais il y a les mauvais disciples et ceux que le Mahutna nommes les "voyons". Les uns deformèrent les pensées du maître, les autres tombèrent dans la violence, accordant ainsi au British Empire des armes qui furent vite retournées contre Gandhi. Libérer la vie matérielle de L'assurer vissement étranger ne serait rien encore, dit Romain Rolland. Il faut l'iberer l'esprit. Gandhi voulut que son pays secouit le joug de la culture européenne; et un de ses sies efforts fut de jeter les bases d'une education vraiment indienne." Il daftrait citer toute la vie de Gandhi et démontrer piece par piece le mécanisme de son œuvre, pour monter toute la sainteet de l'homme et toute la pure et formidable enprise de son pouvoir. S'il voulait abdiquer son principe de non-violence, Hinde balayerait la domination brutanique en quelques heures. Il préfère armer de plus en plus les consciences. Il préfa subir la prison, la trahison et le mécontentement des vieux. Il sait que l'Amour et la douleur finissent toujours par triomoucher. Buddah, Christ et Mahomet ne furent jamais plus grands. Même sil ecoute Tagore, l'Amour grande lumière de l'Orient, nième "il restreuve dans son coin de pointe et si se prepare à accepter la diction et la disgrâce populaire", l'Inde regièncie le recommandait dans les gloeces compune un dieu. Il a l'aimant a promesse : "Avant de semer, al faut saucer . . . arranger le ma." En sa superbe humilité le Mahma n'a jamais espéré une autre glorie que celle du laboureur. A son peuple de récolter les gerbes. La réelection de M. Diagne (Les Contents) Nous applaudissons à la réflexion de M. Blaine Diagne, depuis communiste du Sengal. Nous dions bien communiste, et clest la qualité qui le depuis ne voir voudrait voir agécel à son titre. Nest-il pas en effet, l'élu de Quatre communes: Dakar, Saint-Louis, Ruffuisse et Gorée? Cet Africain exhément subil et remarquablement autorisé pour défendre les indigènes et leurs intérêts, va donc continuer à représenter l'A. O. F. et l'A. E. F. au Palais-Bourbon. Le mandat qui lui est ainsi dévolu, nous semble un peu trop lâgè d'envergure et un peu loud de responsabilités pour un seul homme. L'A. O. F. et l'A. E. F. méritient au moins chacune leur député. Les republicains de 1793 et de 1848 étaient plus magnanimes que ceux de 1924. Après les deux revolutions toutes les colonies d'aurent échacué leur député. Elles n'en portent jamais mal. La Réunion, la Martinique, la Guadeloupe et nos colonies d'Extreme-Orient purent toujours faire entendre leurs reven- décations à la tribune du Puritien et c'est ainsi que leur sort fut indé- mionné là enquel de la métropole qui a fini par les considérateur com- me de lointains départements. Toutes les colonies d'Afrique meritent cet considération. Donnaz-hour des sup- presentants en nombre, suffisant pour qu'elles puissent se mélor activement à notre vie économique et politique. Quand elles auront compris nos besoins, et qu'elles se sentiront, aux moins partiellement libérées, de la tutelle administrative, alors elles rangeront aux côtes des nos départ- ments, comme de grandes filles emancipées. Elles choisiront leurs maitres, et se ceux-ci les maitraient, c'est à eux seuls qu'elles s'en pre- dront. Nouis espérons, que M. Daigne, qui est le premier à reconnaître que l'Ouest-Africain est une famille, trop grande pour lui, défendra au cours de la nouvelle cession, cette thèse qui vise à remplacer simplement un mal par un moindre. Car si le régime parlementaire est souvent inique, le régime parlementaire n'est guère plus saluteire. Mais, entre deux maux, n'est-ce pas, il faut bien choisir le moindre. Les Compagnies Pétroliferes du pérou Selon une information officielle qu'il nous a été possible de recueillir de source autorisée, il résultat que les compagnies pétrolifères anglaises ont pu se rehendre maitresses de la situation dans les champs pétrolifiers de l'Equateur et du Pérou. Bien qu'en réalité l'exploitation des gisements de ces nations se trouve encore à l'état embryonnaire, cependant, la production augmente chaque jour et les experts assurent qu'elle pourra atteindre des proportions fabuleuses, étant, soumise au capital étranger. La Grande-Bretagne a développées activités industrielles chez ces deux nations, en dépit des procédés peu honnées des capitajistes américains qui ont déjà fait de grandes dépenses . . . en sondages et en reconnaissances. Les compagnies les plus importantes qui, avec des capitaux étrangers, opérent, sont actuellement les suivantes: La International Petroleum Company, de Londres; La Lobitas Oil Fields Company, Ltd.; Anglo-European Oil Fields Company, Ltd.; la British Controller Oil Fields, Ltd. Elles sont toutes contrôlées à Londres. La International Petroleum Company, enracinée au Pérou, est centralisée par la Imperial Oil Fields, Ltd.; qui, à son tour, dépend de la Standard Oil Company, de New-Jersey. La Lobitas Oil Company dispose de 30 mille acres de terre et possède des sucursales à Kallao et à Puesto de Davia. Les autres compagnies possèdent de grandes étendues de terrains, tant dans le Pérou que dans l'Equateur, et traitent d'acquirir de nouveaux gisements. . . Dans les champs gistrolifiers qui s'étendent au Sud du Pérou, les capitalistes anglais ont déjà acquis 20000 hectares de terrain. L'Arrivée prochâne de S.

Administration et redaction. 322 Rue de Muxique, 322, Port-au-Prince, Haiti TOKIO, July 1 (Associated Press).—Both houses of the Japanese Dist. at their first sittings of the current session today and almost as their first business, passed resolutions strongly opposing the action of the United States in enacting as part of its new immigration law a clause prohibiting the entry of Japanese. The passage of the resolution in each instance followed the presentation of addresses by the premier, Viscount Taka-Skira Kato, and the foreign minister, Baron Kijuro Shidehara. The House of Peers, in its resolution, expressed approval of the action already taken by the Japanese Government with regard to the American enactment. That passed by the lower house asked the Government to take all proper measures demanded by the situation. Both drafts assert the enactment is discriminatory. The lower house's resolutely declares the exclusion clause violates the principles of justice, and fair play and stands in the way of the seventy-year-old friendship of Japan and America. It adds: "Resolved. That the House of Representatives expressed profound sentiment opposed to this discriminatory enactment; and be it further "Resolved. That the House requests the Imperial Government promptly to take all proper measures the situation requires." In his address Viscount Kato said: "An examination of world conditions reveals that the powers are developing national strength with a view to extending their influence abroad, and Japan needs a general awakening of the popular will." Expressing regret at the passage of the American exclusion act he said the Government would do its utmost to seek a new solution. He promised electoral reform, including universal manhood suffrage, measures against corruption, State economy, national thrift, and the discontinuance of former Premier Kiyoura's loan policy for the present fiscal year. The premier said that the supplementary estimate prepared by his predecessor would be introduced with only a few alterations. An unidentified Japanese cut down the American flag flying in the American Embassy grounds yesterday. City Is Placarded Papstotic societies last evening placarded virtually every telephone and telegraph pole in the city with the following: "Japanese must never forget John when America inflicted an intolerable insult on Japan. Always remember the date. Prepare for such steps as are demanded by the honor of the fatherland when the occasion comes. Every Japanese must remember the following rules: "1. Alter your mode of living so as to improve the date lastingly upon your mind. "2. Hate everything Ameet in, but remain kind to American indians. "3. Deny yourself all luxury. "4. Never forget national honor for private gain. "5. Never enter a church supported or guided by Americans or United States missionaries." Americans Guarded The police guarding the American Embassy and Consulate and battles in which foreigners live were reinforced. The "Association for the Preservation of National Traditions" a lead arm of patriotic organization, has issued a manifesto through the newspaper urging the people not to permit the American nation to cause them to do violence to resident Americans. Similar warnings were sounded to the editorialists of the leading newspapers and in statements by prominent men. Details of the cutting down of the American flag in the United States Embassy compound have been brought to light by police in police, also the identity of the Japanese who stashed the halvards and thus unceremoniously removed the engrish had not been uncovered several hours after the affair. The officers inquiry disclosed that about 12 fpm in a Japanese stole into the compound, climbed the flag pole and cut the flag from the rope with which it is hoisted, escaped before the police arrived. The cutter seized an opportunity to enter the compound when there were no Americans in that part of the enclosure, which formerly surrounded the Embassy buildings destroyed by the earthquake and fire of last September. Until recently a body of marines was encamped within the compound but now only three of the party are left. The Embassy offices are being housed in the Imperial Hotel pending the erection of a new building. This is half a mile away from the compound. None of the three men remaining in the compound saw the cutting. However, persons who did, reported the affair to Charge d'Affaires Caffery, who hurriedly called on Foreign Minister Shidehars. The police promptly placed a guard around the compound and took up the work of investigation. The flagpole stands on diplomatic property, it was pointed out, which made it necessary for the cutter to invade what is really American soil in order to carry out his project. To the Editor of The Negro World: Please permit me space in your valuable columns to explain how low some of our race will stoop to hamper the progress of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its divisions scattered all over the world. In the year 1921 a division of the U. N. I. A. was organized in Central Manatl which was progressing favorably up to the present year. In this same locality there is also a branch of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States of America which has as its Lay Reader a Negro whose name is Josiah Paris. In the year 1921, when we got the inspiration of Garveyism and was about to organize, our first thoughts were for a hall in which to hold our meetings. This locality, being a private property, we had to ask the permission of the authorities. A delegation was formed for the purpose of presenting our petition to the administration requesting permission to organize in the name of the U. N. I. A.; also for a hall in which to hold our meetings whether rented or free. At the presentation of our petition the administrator informed us that owing to the scarcity of houses he could not, at the present time, find one to give us with the exception of an old hospital 'building' which was abandoned after the influenza, but that it had already been given to Mr. Joshua Caris to be used as a church for West Indian employees of the company. On searching the list of signers of the petition he found the name of said Lay Reader Joshua Paris, as one of the signers, he, therefore, gave us permission to hold our meetings in the said building used for church. We, therefore, proceeded upon his instructions to use said building alternatively with Mr. Josiah Paris who was also elected chaplain of our division. Our division made rapid progress, especially in the year 1923, stirring the colored population of this locality to a sense of race consciousness such as never before was seen in Central Manati, which caused empathy and jealousy to arise in the heart of said Josiah Paris that caused him to neglect his duty as chaplain to such an extent that he had to be called down by the president and some of the members; he resigned his post and returned to be elected again. Along with a few disloyal members of this division he opposed the progress of this division. In September, 1923, unknown to us, he went to the second administrator, informing him that the building was given to him for a church and that we as members of the U. N. L. A. went to rule him in the building in that he objected to us practicing our band of music in the building and we refuse to obey him; also that we are running a propaganda to overthrow his church; and he, therefore, asked him to turn us out of the building. The administrator without hearing the other side of the story sent him to the chief of the town, who gave him full authority without taking into consideration the other West Jap. district employees members of this division, who form the majority. When we were informed of the step taken by Mr. Pitts and the action of the administrator we at once drew up a letter of protest, signed by the officers of the division, and sent same to the administrator. He then referred us to the chief of the town, who methodized the division to appear at the office at 11 o'clock next morning. We did so, and during the conference, he found out that the situation was contrary to how he was informed to Mr. Joseph Parks. He therefore withdrew the letter of authority that he had given but and gave us authority to continue in the use of the building automatically without molestation from other cities. But Mr Pritchard did not stop there, but waited for a certain time when the Minister from the university, who visits this facility occasionally in the Fortress, man of its duties, and complained to him. The Minister being an Englishman, and you know, there are few Englishmen today who favor the progress of the L.N.L.A. went to another Englishman. military, to collect his help. The auditor went to the second administrator and asked him to have us cease operation. But Mr. Paris, determined not he to outdure by us this time, did not await the result of the minister's visit to the auditor, but went himself to the administrator general. The second administrator sent for our executive officers, Mr. Wm. Holness, and notified him to stop further activities of the U.N. I.A in this locality. The president and other officers, after being informed of the second administrator's decision, drew up another letter of protest, got it signed by loyal members and sympathizers, to be sent this time to the administrator general. The president was delegated to present the letter of protest to the administrator general. He did so on May L.1, 1924, and was informed by the administrator general that he was met one morning early in his office by Mr. Josiah Paris, who told him lots of things concerning us, some of which he remembered and some he did not, but chiefly that we, as members of the U.N. I. A., are preaching against religion and the white race, therefore, he is not with us, and decided to stop our further activities. As for another hall, he did not have to give us, but that we must go back and make up with Mr. Paris and if he (Paris) agrees it will be all right with him. But the president, officers and loyal members of this division, thought it would be below the dignity of the U.N. I. A., to stoop to compromise such a noble, and glorious cause as that of THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1924 the U. N. I. A. with such a spineless, cringing, cing-in-hand, Uncle Tom, water boy of the Protestant Episcopal Church, such as Josiah Paris, but have decided to obey the orders of the administration and cease our further activities. In this locality, but link ourselves up with the two nearby divisions, namely Bartle and Las Tunas, to help them put it over, leaving Josiah Bartle to continue as the water boy of the Protestant Episcopal Church and to the conviction of his own conscience. JOSEPH A. LLOYD. Central Manassas Orlando, Cuba Wants Every Member To Get a New Member To the Editor of The Negro World: I am a reader of The Negro World and have been for three years. I was a member of the U. N. I. A. for one year at Blythenville, Ark., but moved to Gary, Ind. January 4, 1923, and lost my membership and stayed out for one year. I am now a member of the Gary Division, No. 185. I am now asking every member of the association the world over to get one more member before August 1, and add the numbers to the membership we have and see what a great thing you have done. You can do it! There is not a member of this great movement but can get one more in two weeks' time, we need them, morally and financially. E. W. PINKARD. 2666 Penn Street, Gary, Ind. Canal Zone Preparing For the Great Convention To the Editor of The Negro World: Again I feel it my duty to say something concerning this great movement of ours, especially at this time, when Negroes from the four corners of the world are looking forward to that great day, August 1, on which starts the biggest Negro convention ever held. I have always been interested in The Negro World, but ever so much more during the convention period. The programs for the past conventions have always been great, but that of 1924, as outlined in The Negro World of June 7, is indeed the biggest. Therefore, I say all Negroes, and especially those of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, look forward to the greatest of all days, August 1, 1924. Isn't this a movement all Negroes should be proud of? But, alas! How few have seen the reality of an Africa redeemed? Would to God all men could be seized with the spirit of this great movement, as on the day of Pentecost, when the spirit of God descended on the heads of the disciples and those assembled to hear them preach, wherein all men testified. When Negroes shall have been convicted by the spirit of the U. N. I. A., then shall they, also, testify. I am confident that a day will come when Negroes who are out of the U. N. I. A. will be converted into the folds of this movement. May God hasten the time. I am made up of Garveyism, therefore, I am confident of the redemption of Africa. (MRS) BETSY ATKINS. Ancon, Canal Zone. Right Now Is the Time To Be Up and Doing To the Editor of The Negro World I remember reading a poem once in which the following line occurred: "Great eaks from little acorns grow! It is time now for every black to cultivate himself so that he can grow. It is very hard to tell what fate has in store for you unless you strive. The black man must realize that God made the world and created all men equal. No man should expect to enjoy that which he did not labor for. We well know there are tools and rituals in every flock and the rarest doing all that is in his power to take advantage of the fool; yet, the black man can make his way and not make of himself a fool or racal. There are three kinds of men ruling the multitude today: That is, the educated man, the financial man, and the honest man. It is easy for any one to strive for all three, and a fair trial will accomplish one; then you have laid the foundation for your following generations. Bestow careful culture to the sapling, and when the tree arrives at maturity it will bring forth good fruit." DICK WILLIAMS. Plaquemine, La.

Mask, Air Tank, Make Up New Diving Outfit MELBOURNE, Australia, July 4.—A revolution in the diving industry is promised by the invention of a new diving appliance, which is stated to dispense with the use of pumping. The new appliance is the invention of a Japanese engaged in the pearl fishing industry here. It consists of a small mask, with face glass and rubber edge, which covers the eyes and nose. The mask is connected to a cylinder, about sixteen pounds in weight filled with compressed air and carried on the chest. not be denied the privilege if they prove themselves fit for it. But that is just the crucial point. The white races in the British Empire are deadly anxious to maintain the supremacy of their group, not so much by murits as by the color of their skin; and, judging by the way some of them go about their business, one would suppose that their only asset now is the color of their skin. The present unseemly aquabble between the white settlers and Indians may be studied by us in West Africa with advantage, as it sums, up the whole attitude of the white races towards the colored races. It demonstrates clearly that wherever the white races could conveniently settle and make their homes, they will have no compunction in doing away with the aboriginal inhabitants and their rights, in making themselves absolute masters of the country and closing the door to those they regard as intruders. And we in West Africa should be grateful that our climate is unsuitable for European settlements, otherwise we would have been overtaken by the same fate which had befallen our friends in East and South Africa. The problem in South Africa raises a very pertinent issue, and the issue is, should the right of free entry to any part of the empire so freely conceded to Britishers be denied to the colored peoples? The answer of the white races in South Africa is that the right of free entry should be exclusive to the Brittisher. In other words, that, whereas the white people can settle where they like, the brown or black members of the empire must not dare do so without the leave of white men, even though, as in the case of South Africa, the white man is as much a stranger in the country as the colored man. Indians Successful in Trade The Indians are an industrious people and are remarkably successful traders. They have invaded South Africa in large humbers and are doing a roaring trade there. That is the head and front of their offending, for the white traders there cannot stand the Indians in competition. This in itself is an interesting commentary on the "supremacy" of the white race, for it shows that a so-called inferior race can outwit the so-called superior race in trade. With their success in business and their wealth, which must mean a contribution to the local exchequer, the Indians have asked for equal social and economic rights with the whites, who are as strange in the country as themselves. This simple demand has created a flutter among the whites in South Africa, as they regard it as something like heresy on the part of the Indians.

It may even alter the whole course of British colonial history, and it, therefore, behooves imperial statesmanship to tackle the problem at the root before it grows and spreads and splits the British Empire into two hostile camps—the white races in the empire on one side, and all the colored races on the other side. Indeed, indications already point to a division of the groups since the colored races are nearly one in aima and aspirations which are opposed by the white groups. Indians have been embittered by their experiences in Kenya and South Africa, apart from what they feel in their own country, and Africans are by no means satisfied with the conditions under which they live in their own portion of the empire. The whole question revolves upon what is called "the supremacy of the white races" and the insistence of the white races on their supremacy, even where there is lacking the ability to assert this supremacy. And so long as the white races insist upon this racial supremacy and will sacrifice every other interest to it, there will be no peace in the British Empire. We have always held that there should be only one test by which men should be judged, and that the test should be merit. An empire like ours ought to have a common citizenship the qualification for which should be merit. Of course, if an ideal like this were set before men facial discrimination would disappear and with it white supremacy. It will not, be a question of whether a man is white, black, brown or yellow, but whether he is fit and worthy, and men will come from the four cardinal points of the empire to claim British citizenship, and they will and Scalp Live, wide, awkward Race woman making sure they can on easy terms, $3.00 per month.

He said: "It was quite certain that it was impossible to do justice to the Indian and at the same time to give protection to the white traders in this country . . . wherever you found an Indian trader there was no white trader near." And, therefore, they must be repatriated, "compulsorily if necessary." The white men in South Africa have very little imagination. They cannot conceive that if the Indians were to go back to India and, retaliate by getting all the British traders there repatriated a very difficult situation would be created. Threatening the Future We have given voice to these thoughts because our sympathies are naturally with the Indians. The policy of repression and suppression with which the Indians are afflicted is our common bane, and we are all being smothered by the conscienceless "white supremacy." Of the South African Natives Sir Abe Bailey has this to say: "We had 6,000,000 natives against 1,500,000 of whites. Figures had been compiled to show that in 50 years' time we should have 19 million natives against 3,650,000 whites. One could only come to the conclusion that South Africa had a threatening future. It was a critical question in South Africa whether the white or the black race should ultimately rule."

"I am for economy," the President said. "After that I am for more economy. We must give the people relief from the excessive burden of litigation." Mr. Coolidge's program contemplates cutting expenditures to the bone. He wants to continue even more drastically the three-year-old economy program. To do so he enjoined those responsible for spending the government's money that every administrative effort be carried on with the absolute minimum of expenses. That means, he asserted, that the government payrolls must be reduced. The speech was the first by Mr Coolidge since the Republican party selected him as its Presidential candidate, and he chose in this utterance to review the financial accomplishment of the administration for the last three years. In this period he said there was not reduction in the great public debt of more than $2,720,000,000, and a consequent saving to the people of more than $120,000,000 annually in interest alone. "What progress we have made in ordering the national finances is easily shown," Mr. Coolidge said. "A comparison of our receipts and expenditures for the last four years illustrates conclusively what has been accomplished during the three years of the budget system. "For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921, the last pre-budget year, our expenditures were $5,558,000,000, and our receipts were $6,624,000,000. For the succeeding three years, which include the year which ended today, our expenditures were $3,795,000,000, $3,697,000,000 and $3,497,000,000 respectively. Here we show a progressive and consistent reduction in expenditures. On the other side of the ledger our receipts for 1922 were $4,198,000,000; 1923, $4,077,000,000, and 1924, $3,935,000,000. An analysis of these figures shows that in the face of a progressive reduction in receipts we have still achieved a substantial surplus at the end of each of the fiscal years—$314,000,000 for 1922, $310,000,000 for 1923, under $498,000,000 for 1924. The President announced that he would submit estimates of not more than $3,000,000,000 for expenditures in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1925. He fixed that figure as the maximum and instructed the officers under him to find a way to cut $88,000,000 from their present estimates, which are of Every Man Who Has L Force of Y Scientist Makes Wonderful Disco Years Shout Every Man Who Has Lost the Vital Force of Youth May Be Restored Scientist Makes Wonderful Discovery—Says No Man Under 100 Years Should Feel Old A new discovery is said to have been made by a scientifically study of Serbian mountain people who, scientists say, live longer than any other people. It is said this discovery should add many years to lives of people in all parts of the world and quickly restore manly strength, youthful vigor, grace and beauty lost by neglect or abuse. Scientists agree that the secret of health and vigor lies in the internal glands and, if these glands are stimulated and kept in normal activity, man might live forever and ailments such as tight, worn-out feeling, weakness, nervous ability, fallow completion, loss of weight, poor memory, premature seniority, scrawny neck, restlessness at night, pains, headache, melancholy, despondency, etc., should die-appear.

If this cut is made, Mr. Coolidge said, the airplane for the year covered by those estimates would approximate $105,000,000. He added that he had faith in the ability of the administrative heads to accomplish the purpose. "We are setting the example for reduction in the cost of government and for a return to ordinary peace time conditions," he continued, with emphasis. "There, can be no faltering. Our duty is plain. As we have progressed in the last three years so we must continue." "When we met six months ago," Mr. Coolidge said, "I stated to you that this fight for economy had but one purpose—that the benefits would accrue to the whole people through reduction in taxes. Taxes have now been reduced. While our immediate need is for tax reform as distinguished from tax reduction, we must continue this campaign for economy so as to make possible further tax reduction. "We owe this to the people of our nation, to the people who must pay with their toll. The relief which has recently been afforded must be only the beginning. So, in all your efforts, in all your sacrifices, you must bear in mind that you are making them for the people of our country. There could be no nobler cause or one showing higher patriotism. Bear in mind, always, that we are here as the servants, of the people and that only as we serve them well and faithfully shall we succeed. "You are now preparing your preliminary estimates for the fiscal year 1926. For that fiscal year it will be my purpose to transmit to Congress estimates of appropriations which, excluding the interest on and reduction in the public debt, and the postal service, will not exceed a total of $1,800,000,000. This tentative limitation is in furtherance of my program for a progressive reduction in the cost of government. "I am for economy. After that I am for more economy.

Address all orders URSAL NEGRO ENT ASSOCIATION West 135th Street YORK CITY APPEAL TO PRESIDENT By CASPER HOLSTEIN President Virgin Islands Congressional Council That Uncle Sam's darker childrens have their weather eye open in this Presidential year is sufficiently evidenced by the stand which the Virgin Islanders have taken in regard to a recent judicial appointment in the islands. Governor Philip Williams recently announced his intention of appointing as district judge, George Washington Williams, the stormy petrel of the various naval administrations and chief champion of the racial-infasiority theory of American colonial government. The appointment was to take effect July 1, but the various Virgin Islands societies of New York, along with protests from the natives in the islands, have decided to meet this challenge with a direct appeal to Washington, which has been made. George Washington Williams, it is asserted, has been the embodiment of racial arrogance in the islands. He has held the office of district attorney, magistrate, chairman of the board of elections and other minor positions, all at the same time; and has shown himself so temperamentally incapable of understanding the idea of civil responsibility that he has made no bones about defining this unique jumbling of police, judicial and administrative processes even in the propaganda which he finds time to write to newspapers and magazines on the mainland. His advocacy of the theories of naval rule has not been limited to the domain of theory. He has found expression in practice. It was he who without any shadow of justification or authority compiled a public school teacher to excuse from a pupil's public address the eulogy to Tougaint L'Overture uttered by Wendell Phillips. He, as an American government representative, wipes his hands after shaking that of a colored native. He it was, who began the arbitrary proceedings for the deportation of the Rev. Mr. Barrow, although in defending his action in an article written for the "New York Times". Current History Magazine, the worst charge he could bring, against that clergyman was that of having made the statement that he (Barrow) had known what good government was by living under it; whereas, his newspaper opponents had not enjoyed that privilege. It is charged by the people in the islands that Mr. Williams considers that she only good Negroes are those who find no fault with anything that he or the naval administration may choose to do. Whenever a Negro dares to disagree with him he jashes out in course abuse quite out of keeping with the judicial temperament. His recent propagandist articles abundantly justify that assertion. In view of these facts the Virgin Islanders hold that his elevation to the circuit court would give him the power of a personal appeal force, which power would certainly be thrown in the scrape against the black people of the islands. The present governor (whose name also is Williams), has been generally helpful, kindly and sympathetic to the people, and that makes it hard to understand how he came to select the other Williams for the district indictment, especially when there are other capable and determined men whose judicial aptitude would be demonstrated in that capacity. The Virgin Islanders, however, are not taking any chances and the associated Virgin Islanders, so citizens at their recent meetings in St. Mark's Hall sent the following cable to Governor Philip Williams: "Virgin Islanders protect Washington Williams' appointment to judge of district court. Request that you reconsider appointment. Protest going forward to President Goddard." The appeal to the President of the United States was put in the following letter. "His Excellency, the Hon. Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States, Washington, D.C. "Dear Mr. President—When our country took over the Virgin Islands for strategic reasons we assumed the resulting bonus of civic helpfulness towards the inhabitants, and you, Mr. President, became in some sense their official and protective father. "It is in the name of that relationship that the Associated Virgin Islands Societies of New York assembled in mass meeting at St. Mark's Hall, West 13th street, city, on Sunday afternoon, June 22, 1924, are asking you to intervene (at least until the facts have been examined into) to prevent the civic scandal and judicial disgrace of having Governor Philip Williams of the Virgin Islands appoint Mr. George Washington Williams as district judge of the Virgin Islands. "Mr. Washington Williams has achieved an unavailable reputation as official propagandist for that very naval regime which inhabitants of the islands are now (by bills in Congress and otherwise) doing their best to get changed. He has both practiced and defended the gross abuses involved in an identification of judicial, and administrative functions in the same person, and the inhabitants who see the hope of removing his sinister influence are now outraged at the thought of putting him in the saddle of judicial-control for a term of years. "The case of Governor E. Mont Reilly should serve to indicate a possible precedent for the present na- legal administration in a given place. At any rate, Mr. President, you would show yourself our administrative father by persuading utilization of this conditional appointment until you have read our presentation of the facts, which follows this communication or scan our personal representative. If the Virgin Islanders on this side will now be held to their ears and back up this exchange of letters and telegrams, with a substantial presentation to the President it is quite possible that the appointment, which does promise to become a scandal, may be rescinded and a more proper person than Washington Williams elevated to the district judgeship. In this connection it may be recalled that the President's own commission to the Virgin Islands recently said in its official report that the administration of justice in the inular courts needed to be so reformed that the islanders could regain confidence in the courts." He is the first fine opportunity that the President has had. Mr. and Mrs. P.

THE COLONIZATION PROGRAM FOR LIBERIA UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION RAISING FUND OF TWO MILLION DOLLARS FOR BUILDING FIRST COLONY IN LIBERIA EVERYBODY ASKED TO HELP WITH A DONATION NEGROES TO HAVE HOMELAND OF THEIR OWN FOUR SEPARATE COLONIES TO BE BUILT 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: Government 1.

Dormitories (2) All those who desire to help the Negro under the auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in developing himself are asked to subscribe to the fund of two million ($2,000,000) dollars now being raised for the promotion of the Cavalla Colony. The first group of engineers will sail in a few days to start construction work for the accommodation of the first group of colonists who will leave in September.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1926 Now Immigration Restrictions Serious Blow to the Hopes of a Suffering People of the Islands (From The New York World) West Indian Negroes living in New York are excited over announcement that emigration from Jamaica to the United States has been stopped, at least temporarily, and that the American Consul at Kingston has been instructed by Washington that only passports of Americans desiring to come north are to be vised. First intimation of the new restriction was received here when a large number of Jamaican planning to depart for the United States during July and August, upon applying for passports were told an American law became effective July 1 putting a check on emigration from the West Indies to the United States. This information was promptly sent by natives of the islands to relatives and friends in New York. Immigration officials at Washington admit that under the regulations of the new immigration act the British quota restriction will operate against British subjects, of the West Indian possessions. "The quota exemption of the Western Hemisphere applies only to the self-governing dominions of the British Empire, which means that the West Indian Islands possessed by Great Britain and other European powers will fall within the quota restrictions." Commissioner Hukband explained to The World. Taking from the insular possessions the unrestricted privileges of the British self-governing dominions will 120 West 138th Street Every Night This Week and S Afternoon and Night He Cancelled His Trip to Remain in N for Pre-Convention Meetings To All Divisions of UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION AND MEMBERS June 16, 1924. Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, who was born in Jamaica, said the new policy made it more logical than before that Liberia should be the goal of Negro emigrants. Harry E. B. Davis, treasurer of the Eastern and Gulf Marine Corps and Stewards' Union, thinks his countrymen are being unjustly discriminated against. Barbados, Grenada, Trinidad and other islands on the Caribbean are said to be affected by the new immigration act. METHODIST FIGHT PUT OFF CHATTANOOGA, Tennessee July 2 (Associated Press).—The Extraordinary General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, which convened today to consider union with the Northern body, adjourned early tonight in the throes of an unfinished debate on a resolution which would force adjournment at least until next May without action on the unification proposal.

In recent years 10,000 or more West Indian Negrees have been Canada Doesn't Feel Ban coming to New York annually. It is estimated they make up one-third of the 200,009 Negro population in Harlem. Boston also has a large number. Commenting on the new ruling, the Daily Gleaner, published in Kingston, Jamaica, says: "From what can be gathered, only 2 per cent. of the population of Jamaicans, resident of the United States in 1890, will be allowed to enter the United States in any one year; and when it is remembered that only a comparatively few natives of this colony had settled down North in 1890 it will thus be seen that the number of Jamaicans, who will be permitted to enter the United States, will be very small; and it will certainly mean that some of the passenger steamers, which, at present, trade between the United States and this island, will be deflected.
