The Negro World

LET'S PUT IT OVER The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro Negro World Reaching the Mass of Negroes The Best Advertising Medium A Newspaper Devoted solely to the Interests of the Negro Race MARCUS GARVEY'S PROPHECY IS COMING TRUE---FOOLISH LEADERS KILLING THE RACE VQL. XVII. No. 10 MARCUS IS COMING LEADERS It takes more than the ordinary to arouse the sleeping consciousness of the Negro. You may tell him about the terrible havoc and disaster wrought by a volcano or earthquake, but he will not immediately grasp the meaning and significance until he personally experiences an eruption of the volcano or the tremors of an earthquake, and that time only will he be able to appreciate the disaster and havoc that follow in the wake of such phenomena. And so, we have been warning the Negroes of America for nearly six years about the dangers of the future, as foreseen from a careful analysis and study of social, political and industrial growth of the nation and the races within the nation. We have been pointing out for six years or more that the Negro has no abiding place in the western world and that he is only a quarter of it, removed at will by the stronger races as they devote to the point of demanding better accommodations for themselves to the exclusion of those who by accident do form encumberances in their way. In making such prophecy the unthinking Negro leader laughed at us and called us crazy, when we told him and the people that the only salvation of the Negro is in Africa's redemption and there to build up a nation of our own. They said we were fit subjects for the asylum, but since six years ago every month and every year of our existence has brought about certain experiences and happenings to further justify our stand and to more prepare the thoughtful of our race for universal action for our own salvation. Organization Doing Harm to Race The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, led by J. Weldon Johnson and W. E. B. Du Bois, as we have said before, is doing more harm to the Negro of America than can be calculated. Their annoyance of certain people in their thoughtless agitation for what they cannot get by mere constitutional and political demand is causing a reaction that will ultimately deprive every Negro in America not only of his citizenship but of his manhood. The people who cannot take heed by history and experience are fools not worthy of their own lives. All peoples who have risen to heights of progress racially and nationally are those who have benefited by the experiences of others and by history. The Negro doesn't seem to pay any attention to either. Those who try to ridicule the idea that America is a white man's country are going to find themselves sadly disappointed one of these days, homeless, shelterless and unprovided for. Some of us do harp on our constitutional rights, which sounds reasonable in the righteous interpretation thereof, but are we forgetting that righteousness is alien to the world and that sin and materialism now triumph, and for material glory and honor and selfishness man will slay his Brother? And in the knowledge of this, is the Negro still so foolish as to believe that the majority of other races are going to be so unfair and unjust to themselves as to yield to weaker peoples that which they themselves desire? Depriving the Negro of His Citizenship. And so, we have it in the latest development of certain elements not only to socially and industrially curtail the privileges of the Negro, but now an effort is sought to deprive him of his citizenship. The following bit of news will no doubt interest such Negro "gas bags" and "windjammers" who have prated of their resident security and ignored the higher calling of Africa's freedom for the Negro as Roscoe Conkling Simmons, Robert Abbott, Fred R. Moore, George Harris, W. E. B. Du Bois, William Pickens, J. Weldon Johnson, Chandler Owens, A. Philip Randolph and Robert Bagnall. Oh, if these misguided men could only see the light of truth and use their wasted energy to the real purpose to which all of us should dedicate ourselves, then we would not be drifters on the mighty ocean of time, but as a race we would stand forth with an object and sublime purpose like all other peoples and nations. The Negro of America is warned, even as we have warned the rate before, that it is only a question of time when we will be deprived not only of our social and political rights, but our industrial opportunities also. The Negro is facing now the most difficult period of his existence in the western world. If he fights not for the place of security established by himself, it is only a question of another century when he will have passed away, crushed beneath the trampling heel of stronger and more progressive men who are determined to hold their own and live on in a world of material rivalry and competition. The same type of men of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and Negro politicians who caused the Negro to have lost his vote in the South are now working to cause the Negro to lose the franchise in the North. Not very long ago we stated from the platform of Liberty Hall that the foolish and undiplomatic agitation of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People would cause the Negro to suffer and that it would not be long before the Negro in the North would be deprived of his vote to place him in the same status of the Negro in the South. Gradually efforts being made toward this end and now we have the direct manifestation of it. The Negro is short-sighted and foolish. Before he can obtain higher posi- EFFORT TO DEPRIVE NEGRO OF HIS CITIZENSHIP EFFORT TO DEPRIVE NEGRO OF HIS CITIZENSHIP WOULD-BE "WHITE" NEGROES CAUSING UNTOLD TROUBLE TO RACE "HAVE LOST NOTHING IN AFRICA," BUT PICKING UP TROUBLE HERE! MASSES OF NEGROES SHOULD CURB SELF-SEEKERS AND PREVENT THEM FROM FURTHER INJURING THE RACE SEEK JOBS FOR THEMSELVES AT EXPENSE OF ENTIRE RACE tions in government he must first lay the foundation of all governments, and that is industry. Until the Negro has established a stronghold in industry he has nothing to rule, nothing to govern and other peoples who have laid such a foundation for themselves are not naturally foolish enough to allow others who have not done so to govern them. That is the crux of the whole matter. The Negro has religion, he has a lot of education and frothy logic, but he lacks the essential that really constitutes government and makes races and peoples progressive and respected. Tell the Negro about building railroads, building steamship lines, starting big factories and mills, having a country of his own, he laughs at you; but tell him about wanting to be Comptroller of Customs, Secretary of State, Secretary to the Governor in another man's country, he feels happy and tells you it is his constitutional right. Thoughtful men know the limit of black men's constitutional rights in countries created by white men for white men, notwithstanding the idle boasts of men like Rosie Conkling Simmons and W. E. B. Du Bois. VALIDITY OF 14TH AMENDMENT ATTACKED IN NEW ORLEANS SUIT Action, If Successful, Will Disenfranchise Every Negro Voter in United States NEW ORLEANS, La. Oct. 5. A suit attacking the validity of the fourteenth amendment from a new angle will be filed in Federal District Court here tomorrow in the form of a petition seeking to enjoin Walter L. Cohen, Negro Comptroller, of Customs of the Port of New Orleans, from exercising the duties of that office, according to the Times-Picayune. The action, if successful, would have the effect of disenfranchising every Negro in the United States. The petition, as published by the newspaper, charges that Cohen "faisely alleged himself to be a citizen of the United States," when he took the oath of that office. It asserts that the defendant is not a citizen of this country, but is "a person of African blood and descent and is inherently incapable of being a citizen of the United States." The suit is to be brought in the name of H. Edwin Bolte, an attorney of Washington, D. C., according to the newspaper, which declares that the grounds upon which it is based never have been the subject of decision by the courts. Not Ratified. In Charge The petition sets forth that three-fourths of the States did not ratify the amendment nor was it adopted by the required two-thirds vote of both Houses of Congress. Mr. Bolte was quoted as saying that, although he and his associates had examined all of the more than 200 decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States, which had to do with the amendment in not one of them were the points raised in his action passed upon nor were they made an issue. The petition charges conspiracy to the authors of the amendment in Congress and various sections are cited in an effort to show that they put the amendment into effect unlawfully. As to Cohen, the petition charges that when lie took the oath of office in Washington, April 16, 1924, he swore falsely to his alleged PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GREATER NEW YORK TEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U.S.A. TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES PROPHECY FOOLISH THE RACE citizenship, claiming to be a citizen under "the provision of the alleged fourteenth amendment of the Constitution of the United States." The petition alleges that article fourteen never was legally proposed by two-thirds of both Houses of Congress, that it never was ratified by three-fourths of the States, that eleven States of the Union at the time of the adoption of the resolution "culminating in the alleged article fourteen" were unconstitutionally deprived of their equal suffrage in the Senate, that six States were by coercion forced to ratify it and that Congress "did without power or authority unlawfully declare said amendment to the Constitution adopted and a part of the Constitution." The petition then requests the issuance of an injunction from serving further in a court officer from drawing attention for that office. Cohen, a leading Republican politician of Louisiana, has been a storm center ever since his nomination to the post by the late President Harding. The Senate refused confirmation on the ground that he was personally obnoxious to the Louisiana members of the body. President Harding then issued a recess appointment and he served several months, without pay. President Coolidge later sent his nomination back to the Senate and again confirmation was denied on the same grounds as before. Upon reconsideration, however, the nomination finally was confirmed. An Alarming State of Affairs The above but of news published by the Associated Press and scattered all over the country on October 10th reveals an alarming state of affairs. Whether the suit is successful or not is not the question. The bringing of the suit reveals the attitude of the majority group, and that is what we must take into consideration if we are thoughtful. We may state for the information of Negroes that not only will the Negro be possibly deprived of his political voice, but immediately after the forthcoming election for the unscrupulous, harassing and annoying part that the Negro has played in politics, especially in centers like Chicago and New York, he is going to find himself thrown back on his own resources without a job and without the possible hope of employment and the bulk of the race, the masses of the people, should be warned at this time not to listen to and follow the advice of Negro political jobbers, men who are only seeking positions to themselves at the expense of the people, because when they have secured the appointment that they have bankered after, they will leave the fifteen millions of us in the cold to suffer and die. By Cohen's stubborn tight in the name of the race to secure the position for the vanity of it, he is now inflicting a terrible punishment upon the entire race with the possibility of each and every one of us losing our citizenship because of the aggravating and annoying position he has taken to advance his own interest in the expense of the race. When to Fight for Rights The Negro must realize, when to fight and how to fight for what wants. There is no sense in a weak and defenseless man flaunting a red flag in the face of an angry bull, or in a man, with his hand in the mouth of a lion, provoking the beast to rage and anger. That is just what crafty and selfish Negro politicians are doing for the purpose of securing positions for themselves and then leaving the rate exposed to the worst possible danger. The positions they seek will come and in greater abundance when they will become thoughtful enough to lay a proper foundation, but no man is going to build his house and then turn it over to a stranger simply because the stranger can make a great amount of noise under the pretense of constitutional rights; and so the Negro had better be warned and the masses also take an immediate stand to curb the selfish Negro leader who is doing the race more harm than good. Trusting each and every one will realize the seriousness of the situation and make an effort to do what is right for the preservation of the race. I have the honor to be.

Madame Mamie Hightower BENEFACTRESS of OUR RACE Wins Point to Amend Protocols Defining Domestic Issues and Provocation for War-Aimed at the United States From the New York Evening Post Disavowals by Tokio that the issue of "racial equality" was back of the Japanese refusal to accept the original Geneva protocols are not borne out by her representatives at Geneva. They make no secret about it. They have emphasized that Japan's stand opens up the whole question of Asia's demands for "racial equality." Japan, in fact, made herself the mouthpiece for the brown and yellow world now spilling over its ancient boundaries. Her words were addressed not only to the United States but to the Dominion of Canada, the Union of South Africa and the Commonwealth of Australia. She came to Geneva conceding immigration to be a domestic question, not hitherto subject to international arbitration. Nevertheless, she hoped to make it so subject. She felt that any great international body would side with her against the American and Dominion immigration acts, since Eurasia and South America have no "color line." It turned out that the League plan tended to support America's position, based on the law of nationalism, domestic questions are not subject to international meiding. Under that plan a World Court decision that immigration is a domestic question would tl Japanese hands. She could no longer make war because she believed immigration acts or other issues robbed her of her rights. She would be in danger of being declared the "aggressor" and suffering the "sanctions" and penalties laid upon her by the League. Japan then exploded her first bomb. She proposed that any nation, League member or not, signer of the protocols or not, that refused arbitration or its findings, should be judged the "aggressor." She insisted that this apply even in those cases where a reluctant nation held the issue to be one affecting its own domestic welfare and sovereign rights. Then if America refused to permit her immigration or other domestic acts to go before an arbitration board, Japan might have her declared the "aggressor" and make war with the blessings of the League. The League refused and Japan balked. She demanded the suppression of the protocol clause which proclaimed that any state refusing to accept a World Court decision would be marked as an "aggressor." At any cost she would keep her hands free. Her stand threatened the ambitious scheme of the protocols. In the end the Japanese won most or what they asked. A new amendment gives the right of appeal from any decision of the World Court, which may hold, an issue to, be one of domestic concern. The appellant may go to the Council of the League and pray, not for a reversal of the decision, but for friendly intervention. In case this way to relief is not sought by the nation feeling itself wronged, and if that nation refuses to follow the court's decision, it will be regarded as the "aggressor." Under this compromise Japan is in a position to keep the racial issue to the forefront, as she has done since the Peace Conference at Versailles in 1919. She crowded it forward in the Fourth League Assembly and has forced it again upon the Fifth Assembly. It was the cause of great tension between America and Japan last spring. It crops up continually between Japan and the greater British dominions. Geneva is making it possible for Japan to drag before the League such matters of national jurisdiction as the American Immigration Act of 1924. Similar laws of South Africa, Canada and Australia may become objects of League intervention if Japan denounces them as possible causes of war. These are broad concessions, so broad that should America place an embargo on cotton or gold or copper the long finger of the League might be poked into her domestic affairs. Should one power withhold raw materials from another, the League might intervene on the broad ground of preventing atrife. Should France, say, protest our Eighteenth Amendment to be a matter of international concern, destructive to the vineyards, trade and well-being of a part of the world, we might be hailed to court. So long as the League attends to its own business and that of its members its action do not concern us. That is the way for it to keep its American friend. It cannot keep them by threatening American rights and sovereignty. Coercion is not the way; yielding to Japan is not the way. The Japanese half victory at Geneva is significant. One more turn has been given the screws by which Europe is grimly resolved to coerce us into the League.

The glories are lost in the songs. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, must have been intensely composed by Negroes whose emotions took this occasion, and must have good their fortune with the race of large. Only some of them met with the kind of response which perpetuated them. The others fell and died asounds die when there are no care with the sympathy to understand them. The surviving songs are, therefore, in a true sense, the possession, if not the positive creation, of the race. If they do not bear witness to the talents of individuals, to the private impulses of the compassers, to their methods and schools of some they have chosen whom to the degree impersonal the body of the one which inhabited them. Their baptism, succession, what of it to the enslave whom the race had in its headdress, "Wouldn't know the troubles I hope," the burden of oops of them, might almost be the burden of all of them. The black voices lifted up in these songs came from throes which asked. Yet with what pathetic faith they alight to the hope of exsolution which their religion promised them! This world was full of grief, but just beyond it lay the Jordan, over which a sweet charter might as day moment swing to carry the slave to a long and joyous home. Shouting salvation, he would enter the promised land, where he would: have shoes and be permitted to walk all over God's spawn. Though the conclusion of premature wars of the simplest, if the most deadly crimes. It was alleged by a proclaimed man and apologist without other endorsement. At the root of the optimism lay what Miguel Domingo has called the tragic sense of life in men and in people, one of the great recurrent notions in all the wisdom and all the minds of the talk everywhere. For this reason, perhaps, these songs persist while the bravery, compositions of the white evangelists go their way to unremembered and well-deserved oblivion. The dominant race, spurring itself to offercont optimum, could not listen to the undertones of human life. But negligently left them to its bondsmen. But in the long run it will be the bondsmen whose voices are heard. EDOAR CONNOR, one of the greatest comedians who ever played Broadway, known as "Half Pint" in "Shuffle Along." Uses Golden Brown. large measure of intelligence and self-determination. It is the same way with people in large and small communities; those who have the industry and the thrift and the intelligence dominate those who do not have them, and gather to themselves in the development of the community most of the influence and wealth of the community. The intelligent ones are not always scrupulous of the means they resort to in securing the influence and the wealth of their community, whether it be as small as a city block or as large as the State of New York, or the government of the United States; as a matter of fact, they are oftener than otherwise more or less unscrupulous. Because it is so those who are made the victims of the greed and oppression of the intelligently industrious and thrifty are groaning and squirming and protesting in all lands today, more so than in former times, making for world-wide discontent and unrest. THE LITTLE OF LIFE A MAKE BIG By T. Th The Negro people do not appear anywhere to be a commercially disposed people. They do not appear to be naturally traders, buyers and sellers and financiers, who gather money and use it to make more money. American and European traders search out the remotest corners of the earth in selling what they have and buying what they want of those to, whom they sell, and to, facilitate this buying and selling they have their banks and banking agencies everywhere. You can find a Negro anywhere with nothing but his labor to sell and which suffices only to keep body and soul together, and he often has to, sell that so cheaply as to impoverish him. As for buying for the purpose of selling at a profit, or manufacturing or producing for the same purpose commodities that others want and are willing to pay dearly for, everywhere he seems not to have the knack and to be engaged in that sort of thing. This makes him the "poor man, beggar man" everywhere, to be ruled and robbed at the same time, with no redress anywhere. They say we have 200,000 Negroes in Harlem. We all know that it is difficult to buy anything of a Negro from a shoe string to a suit of clothes, or from a cabbage to all the necessary things that go with it to make a square meal. That is to say, the 200,000 Negroes of Harlem are wage-carners, and poor, who buy everything they need from others who steadily grow rich from the profits of their trade. As it is in Harlem, so it is in the West Indies, in Africa, according to the race newspapers we receive in The Negro World office from those countries and of the United States. This condition should not be. We shall never command the respect and influence we need and without which we are poor indeed until we change it. It should be the business of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to labor to help change it wherever ten or more of them are. How? By buying and selling among themselves, as far as this is possible. It is the only way out. A CHALLENGE TO THE NEGRO'S RIGHT OF CITIZENSHIP ASUIT has been filed in the Federal District Court at New Orleans that attacks the Fourteenth Amendment from an entirely new angle, and which, if successful, would disfranchise every Negro in the United States. The petition seeks to enjoin Walter L. Cohen from exercising the duties of Comptroller of Customs, at New Orleans, alleging that he was not a citizen of the United States when he took the oath of office, but "a person of African blood and descent and inherently incapable of being a citizen of the United States." It is further alleged in the petition that "eleven States of the Union at the time of the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, or the resolution culminating in such adoption, were unconstitutionally deprived of their equal suffrage in the Senate, that six States were by coercion forced to ratify it, and that 'Congress did without power or authority,' unlawfully declare said amendment to the Constitution adopted and a part of the Constitution. The petition requests that an injunction issue which will prevent Mr. Cohen from further serving and drawing the salary of Comptroller of Customs. Mr. Cohen is a Negro leader of Republican politics in Louisiana. President Harding appointed him Comptroller, but the Republican Senate refused him confirmation because the Democratic Senators objected. President Harding then gave him a recess appointment and he served without pay. President Coolidge sent his nomination back to the Republican Senate and confirmation was again refused on the same grounds, but later the nomination was reconsidered and confirmed. The petition alleges that the points raised have not been passed upon by the courts. It is highly probable that it will reach the Federal Supreme Court after a long time. What effect the petition would have, if the injunction asked for should be granted by the Federal District Court, restraining Mr. Cohen from exercising the privileges and immunities of a citizen, would have upon the citizenship of the whole race, pending the life of the injunction, is a speculative question, but one with which the entire race is vitally concerned in the United States, and incidentally outside of the United States. Even if the contentions set up in the petition should be sustained by the evidence, there are so many interests affected by decisions already rendered by the Court based upon the amendment that it is inconceivable that the Supreme Court should vote to declare the amendment null and void.

LET'S PUT IT OVER KEEP ALIVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE AND TO BE VOTED FOR EVERY reader of The Negro World, every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, wherever he is a voter, should read and ponder the good advice of President Coolidge, at the dedication of a monument to the veterans of the First Division of the American Expeditionary Forces, in Washington, October 4, as follows: "In our land the people rule. The great truth cannot be too often repeated that this nation is exactly what the people make it. It is necessary to realize that our duties are personal. For each of us our country will be about what we make it. The obligation of citizenship is upon each one of us. We must discharge it in the actions of our daily life. If we are employed we must be true to that employment. If we are in business we must be true to that business. What is always of the utmost importance, if we have the privilege to vote, we must inform ourselves of the questions at issue and going to the ballot box on Election Day and there vote, as we claim the sacred right of Americans to live, according to the dictates of our own conscience." That is a clear statement of the duties of citizenship. We can all afford to heed the advice and live up to it. And it is the sacred duty we might any obligation, of every Negro in the United States, of every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, to keep alive by the exercise of the voting privilege the right to vote and to be voted for. JAPAN QUEERS THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS THE universal hope that the League of Nations would in some way work out a program that would insure the peace of the world, would make wars impossible and insure to small countries some measure of equality with the large ones, has fallen far short of the hope. It is too early, however, to say that the League has failed, or that it has not accomplished great and asting good, and that it may not accomplish much good in the future. It would have accomplished more if the United States had seen a member, as it has become the largest creditor as well as producing and consuming of the Nations, with larger reserves of wealth and with greater possible future expansion and development. Japan came near breaking up the League of Nations at the recent Geneva meeting by reviving in a way the "racial equality" question, by an amendment to the proposed protocol more clearly defining, causes of war and responsibility for war and extending such auses to include domestic questions, like that of immigration, raised by the United States in Japanese exclusion, as it had theretofore existed in the Dominion of Canada, Australia and the Union of south Africa, and by forcing the League, in order to save its face, concede the point raised by it. Great Britain felt constrained to like sides with Japan, although in doing so she was compelled to ntagenize the exclusion policy of the British Commonwealths we ave named here. It is noticeable that President Coolidge, in his Washington address at the unveiling of a monument to the American Expeditionary Force, recently, with the amended Protocol in mind, said, "We do not propose to entrust to any other Power or comination of Powers any authority to make up our own mind for us." Speaking upon the same subject, at Melbourne, Premier Bruce, f Australia, said, in the House of Representatives, that "Nothing one at Geneva, by the arbitrary compromise and security protocol the League of Nations binds the people of Parliament of Australia without their consent"; he regretted that the question of domestic jurisdiction should have arisen, as Australia could not low its stand in this matter to be questioned, as his Nation was determined to maintain a "White Australia." At this time President Calvin Cooke has the advantage of his opponents, and if his popularity and strength continues he will be returned to the White House by a decisive majority.—Birmingham Reporter. Too many have been trying to be "boss" in Lake county anyway. These would be "bosses" appear about election time expecting to be well paid for doing nothing. They constitute the political trash Negroes most sweep out of their civic household in Lake county, and Gary. These Negro "bosses" usually represent and stand for the worst menace of good government and prosperous citizenship—organized vice and corruptive—Gary Sum. The Dominions of Canada and South Africa maintain a like policy Australia, and the defection of the three Dominions would go toward weakening the British prestige in world affairs. That is already happened. Canada's insistence upon diplomatic representation of its own with the United States, which the other Dominions are likely to also insist upon. The Japanese have queered the League of Nations on the question "racial equality," and the end is not yet. Japan is working sadly towards a union of China, India, Russia and Turkey for the assertion of the principle of "racial equality," and developments in Near and Far East and in Southwestern Europe go far to show it is having remarkable success. The peace of the world is in the balance, which all who love peace none the less but since all the store cannot but regret and deplore. Mobs in any section of the globe are unreasonable and are actuated by a false sense of justice. Whether in these civilized United States attending the lynching of a suspected Negro, whether it is in Boston smashing the windows of stores during a police strike or whether in Persia murdering a vice consul they should be summarily amputated - Boston, Cincinnati. INNESS GROWTH AND EXPANSION NECESSARY TO RACE INDEPENDENCE There is one thing certain, if we are to make our calling and election sure in regard to the security of our citizenship, we have to start with the home affairs. We have all along had a false impression as to the importance of national matters with regard to our citizenship status, and for that reason we have overlooked the true purpose of our country.

A circuit judge reprimanded a No- THE LITTLE THINGS OF LIFE AND LIVING MAKE BIG THING By T. Thomas Fortune The little things in life make for the big things. Some of the greatest and most decisive events in the history of mankind have been the result of what appeared to be the smallest and most inconsequential things. Dr. Washington ascribed his success in life to the sweeping of a room at Hampton Institute in such a thorough way as to command the approval of a person whose influence was worth everything to the young student at that time. Those who knew Dr. Washington when he had come to occupy a large and influential place in the world can very well understand the importance he placed upon the sweeping of a room at Hampton Institute and the influence it had upon his after success. He was a poor and friendless boy at the school, which he had reached by walking and working his way, and it was necessary to have much help from those in authority at the Institute, and this could only be had by his show of willingness to do the small things expected of him in a thorough way. It was characteristic of Dr. Washington that he paid the greatest possible attention to the smallest thing which he had to do as with the largest. He never forgot a promise and he never kept it an hour or a day after he had promised it. He was always on time in fulfilling his engagements. When he was at Tuskegee he gave personal attention to all of the details of the work; when he was away from the institute he had daily reports from all of the departments of the work. By regulating his life in this way people came to know that he was thorough and dependable, with the result that students and institute officials labored to do things as the principal did them. The small things of life cannot be neglected without impairing the effectiveness of the large things. Those who get the reputation for being thorough and dependable always outdistance in the race of life those who are not. Those who do not succeed, on this account, are puzzled at the success of others whom they know are not as bright and capable as they are. They even complain that there must be injustice somewhere. So there is, but it is in the person himself and not in others. And in every person there are always three persons, sometimes more, who work at cross purposes and often destroy the one person responsible for the thought and words and acts of the others. This principle of human life is not generally understood, although most of us are interfered with from within and thwarted of our desires from within and thwarted of our desires from without and not understanding it all in the least. "Ye be men and beethorn." That applies to each of us in his individual person. The Negro people have much to learn in the matter of caring properly for the small things that make for the big things; for the thoroughness and dependability that make for character and respectability; for time, which is precious and should not be fritttered away, and for promises, which are binding and cannot safely be ignored. We all need self-examination in this matter, because we all want to have our own self-respect, and we cannot well have it unless we so shape our conduct as to have the respect of our neighbors; we all want to succeed, and we cannot do so unless we learn to care for the small things that make for the large things. Take care of the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves. Bring up a child, in the way it should go and when it becomes a man it will go as it should. right. Right to jury service is one of the foundations of citizenship. Personal liberty and property ownership are involved in courts, and courts depend upon jurors. White men ought not ask to be exempted, and Negroes must not ask. We cannot afford it. The three dollars a day for the service is enough to permit us to sacrifice for the good of all. In any case, where an employee would discharge an employee who serves on the jury, the court will intervene. There is no place in America for such an unpatriotic employer—Kansas City Call. Newspapers, of course, frequently print an political advertising, views to which they do not agree, but it is generally customary to indicate that such notices are admitted advertising. It seems a broad and liberal policy to admit such contrary views to a publication, but those who seek to express them ought to pay a reasonable fee for the opportunity to get them VIRGIN ISLANDERS WHO HAVE NO CITIZENSHIP Placed in Position of Men Without a Country by Ruling of State Department and Are Up in the Air at Home and Abroad Now that election time is near it will surprise most New Yorkers to learn that, besides ex-convicts, there are Americans in New York City and in other parts of the United States who are incapable of voting. Yet such in the case. "But perhaps," the reader may say, "they are foreigners who have not yet completed the process of naturalization." Then He will be further surprised to hear that these people can neither begin nor complete the process of naturalization for they owe allegiance to no king or country from whom they might forwear it. It shall perplex him no further, but will proceed to tell the story of a singular contradiction of democratic principles perpetrated in these latter years by our national office. State Department. When the Virgin Islands were acquired by us from Denmark in 1917 there were upwards of 10,000 Virgin Islanders resident in the City and County of New York and a few hundred scattered over the rest of the United States. The terms of the treaty by which their islands had been acquired provided that those residents of the Virgin Islands who did not wish to become American citizens should file in official declaration to that effect. Where no such declaration was filed the people would be held to have acquired statis as Americans. The Virgin Islanders took it for granted that this arrangement applied to them and that their acquiescence made them Americans. None of them filed any declaration of intention of remaining subjects of the King of Denmark. They felt all the more certain of their status as American citizens since their young men in the United States were taken, under the Selective Draft Act, which obviously applied only to American citizens. But when some of them, after the war, applied for passports to enable them to travel in other lands they were officially informed by the then Third Assistant Secretary of State, Mr. Alvin A. Adee, that they were, not American citizens. Thus, their present status is like that of Tomlinson's soul which was refused admittance into Heaven because he had done no good, and was excluded from the other place because he had done no evil. But Tomlinson had the advantage of them in one respect; he was returned to his house in Berkley Square to begin all over again with a chance to fit himself for either Heaven or Hell, as he might choose, while the Virgin Islanders are unable to go back to their original and unquivoal status. At the present time, should Virgin Islanders in the United States visit their islands they find it very difficult to return. Their case is absolutely unique in the annals of American history. They are neither American citizens nor Danish subjects, and they cannot become American citizens nor Danish subjects. What will America do for these people without a country? It should seem an act of simple common sense for the State Department to declare that they are American citizens and thus cut the Indian Knot of its own creation. These people desire to become American citizens. In the meanwhile these citizens of Shadowland away under the weight of naval rule; the hood-wink is pulled tight across the eyes of justice; a deaf ear is turned to their apical, as the late act of Governor Philip Williams (a naval captain) will testify. Official America should wake up to the conditions that obtain in one of Uncle Sam's insular possessions. Not so very long ago there was a pending appointment to the Supreme Court judgement in the Virgin Islands, an appointment by the governor, mind you! An act directly against American judicial procedure. The one named for the position was one who had made an unsavory, repudiation there—George Washington Williams, a Southern Democrat under a Republican administration. Virgin Islanders at home and in New York filed a protest with Governor Philip Williams stating that Washington Williams, if appointed would use his personal animus against the unfortunate natives who may come before him. This appeal was backed up by another from the American Civil Liberties Union, an organization which represents thousands of American citizens, but Governor Williams, having the power of the late Czar Nicholas vested in him, paid no attention to the appeal of thousands of Virgin Islanders nor of the American Civil Liberties Union, and Washington Williams was appointed. All this, coupled with judicial oppression, plus Washington Williams, is the great burden Virgin Islanders must bear. But Virgin Islanders have great faith and believe that the promises made by President Calvin Coolidge will be fulfilled. We have had promises of reform for the Virgin Islands from the Democratic, Republican and Progressive parties, but I am sure that Virgin Islanders and their legion of sympathizers will cast their bet with Calvin Coolidge. In the meanwhile Republican America should see, to it that a Southern Democrat not be allowed to supers the high office of prince Court Judge of the Virgin Delaware, as in the case of Washington William, who is a juror in the Southern Democrat, holding a high administrative office in a Republican administration. This appointment is politically indemnifiable. The United States Constitution does not need to apply to the smallest persons of U.S. Army, although the Highbush Sampson does. Their affairs are not administered by the State Department, but by the Navy Department, a procedure without precedent in American history. There is more of the mailed fat than of the vested glove about it. The governor is a captain in the navy, who officially combines administrative, legislative and judicial functions, as he proudly declares a combination of public authority, which our more democratic government has never granted either to George Washington, Abraham Lincoln or Theodore Roosevelt. All in all it would seem that the Hon. Increase D. O. Place was right when he told us that "Besides, there's a wonderful power in latitude To shift a man's married relations an altitude." And as Mr. Hosea. Biglow insists: "There's nothin' for folks fond o' liberal consumption eral consumption Free o' charge, like democracy tem ation." HEALTH TOPICS By Dr. B. B. HERBEN Of the New B. U. Tuberculosis Assn. First Signs of Pneumonia As a rule, pneumonia begins by knocking a person down so suddenly that there has been no chance to ward off the attack. There are occasions in which pneumonia comes on gradually in a way similar to some of the other infectious diseases, such as influenza, or scarlet fever, etc. It may be preceded by a bronchitis, or a cold in the head, or some other apparently mild form of infection in the breathing apparatus. In adults, the common mode of beginning is with a sudden chill. I mean by this, a real chill, of more or less violence, in which the victim shivers uncontrollably and steadily for a period of some length, to fall subsequently into a fever which steadily mounts upward. There may be pain in the chest, headache, vomiting and other signs of illness, with a cough and hurried and perhaps difficult breathing. In children, a similar attack may be noted, but in young children and in babies there is usually not a severe chill or cough and no raising of mucous, but rather less definite symptoms are present. In any baby who shows a sudden attack of vomiting or a convulsion, together with evidence of pain in the back or abdomen, with fever and a manifestation of nervousness or delirium, pneumonia should be suspected. In these infants there may be excessive indifference, bordering at times upon actual unconsciousness. What is the first thing to do in such cases in either adults or infants? Get the patient to bed and send for the bed doctor you know. Pneumonia is a disease which requires the most care of treatment and the soundest of judgment. If possible, get a trained nurse if the patient must be kept at home and not sent to a hospital. The disease may end by crises; that is, there may be a sudden change for the better or worse; and after that crisis the patient either shows immediate improvement, which steadily goes on into a rapid convalescence, or, if the reversbe true, the outlook Is a dark one and the patient is in grave danger of death. Some cases of pneumonia do not show this type of termination, but the patient slinks gradually into weakness and death or he rises gradually from the poisoning and slowly grows stronger until the temperature is normal and the return to health seems assured. Mr. Garvey Visits Plant Of the Kansas City Call From the Kansas City Call Marcus Garvey, president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was an informal visitor at The Call office yesterday. He was accompanied by Mrs. Garvey, who acts as his personal secretary. Mr. Garvey smiled off an attempt of a reporter to interview him. "No, I have no formal statement to make for the press," he said, "I called to visit my friend, Mr. Franklin, as one publisher to another, and to congratulate him on the progress of The Call." Mr. Garvey stopped over in Kansas City for just part of a day on his way to the Pacific Coast. He addressed a mass meeting last night on the Kansas side and left immediately for Denver High Praise for Editor Fortune and Negro World From the Christian Record The Negro World, the official organ of the so-called Garvey movement, is a sixteen-page paper and one of the best edited weeklies of the country, regardless of race. However, much one disagrees with Garvey, it must be acknowledged that his is one of the most informing and readable weeklies published. Besides its English section, it has a French and a Spanish section, and is international in its point of view. The Mouth Is a Useful Member Wisely Used From the Richmond Platet Dean William Pickens says that Marcus Garvey's greatest enemy in his mouth. It may be that at times his utterances are indiscreet and his gestures bewildering, but what in the world would become of him and his organisation without his mouth? Spreading propaganda for revolutionizing the thoughts and customs of a people can only be accomplished by the use of the mouth, and in this respect the title educator is something of an adapt him-sel. Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN Unless you see the "Bayer Cross" on tablets you are not getting the genuine Bayer Aspirin proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians 24 years for On Sunday, August 31 last, the Jobbie Division, 223, of the U. N. I. A. held a large mass meeting at 6 p.m. The meeting was called to order by 221 John E. Campbell, assistant president, who acted as chairman. The audience sang "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," followed by the chapel's prayer. The chapel read as his first lesson St. Matthew's Gospel, 224 chapter, and his text was taken from the 22d verse: "When they had heard these words they marveled and left him, and went their way." Myra No. 24 was sung by the audience, "Stand Up, Stand Up, for Jesus," after which the chairman made an address with regard to the rising of the Fourth International Convention and the departure of the delegates to their respective homes. The following program was rendered: Address Mr. John S. Edwards, second vice-president of the division; reading of The Negro World by the 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' "Glands Awakened in One Day" is the Amazing Statement of a Seventy-six-Year-Old Veteran. Lost vigor, deadened glands and muscles, and weakened teeth, dehydrated and half-a-hour a feeling need not be dreaded any longer since the discovery of a well-known chemist. Now it is possible for those who feel "prematurely old" to become "rejuvenated" and regain the "vital force of youth," often in a day's time, with Mando Forte, who has taken the treatment. This famous discovery is bringing "renewed youth" and "strength" to thousands where everything else had failed. "I want to say that my lost vigor was restored and 'glands renewed.' I took care of Kansas City, Mo." "Today I am 76, but I don't feel a day over 40. Before I started taking it, treatment I felt I was an old, worn, worn, man, but now I am enjoying a reliable 'gland restoration' and am convinced my 'rejuvenation' is complete and permanent. May such a boon to humanity." This wonderful formula, prepared by one of the largest, laboratories in the world and generally known as Mando, will help you know how and seems to work the magic in your reality on people of all ages and sexes. No matter how bad your condition, no matter what your age or occupation, no matter what you have tried, if you have a Mando formula, you will have the force of youth" we are so confident Mando Formula will restore you that we offer to send a large $3.50 bottle for only $1.95 on 10 days' free trial. If the results are not satisfactory and you are not used in every way, it costs you nothing. "And no money—just your name and address to F. L. Carlin, 608 Baltimore Ridge, Kansas City, Mo, and the treatment record to the simple directions. If at the end of the 10 days you are not showing "wonderful improvement" and "rejuvenation," just send it back and your money will be refunded without charge.

N. 84 held its regular mass meeting in Liberty Hall. Revillaggedo, 88. Owing to the inclementy of the weather, up to 8 p. m. there were only three members present; at 8:10 p. m. the number had increased to seven, and by 8:20 p. m. the hall was filled, mostly with ladies. From the appearance of the hall, one could see the growing enthusiasm of the people, everyone realizing that the program of the U. N. I. A. through its intrepid leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, must be put over. The meeting was called to order at 8:15 p. m. by the president. Mr. F. Wharton, by the singing of the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountain."

The meeting was brought to a close by the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem. Everyone left the hall with new determination to put over the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. WILBERT E. BARNES. Reporter. COLP.

Among some of the notable present were the Hon. Commissioner S. V. Robertson and the Hon. Charles W. Jackson Executive Secretary. The president delivered the opening address, which was followed by the reading of The Negro World by Philip Clinton. The Hon. Rudolph Smith, who was the center of attraction, entered the hall surrounded by a body of Legionnaires, the motor corps and the Black Cross Nurses.

Some business was discussed, after which the meeting was brought to a close. PHILIP CLINTON. San Pedro de Cacocum, Cuba The San Pedro Division of the U. N. I. a held a grand mass meeting on August 4. last. The meeting was opened with the singing of the ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains," followed by prayer. Dr. Sally, wearing the colors of the U. N. I. A., arose amid thunderous applause and delivered an eloquent address. He explained the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. to his audience. His hearers, both Cubans and English, listened to his speech with rant attention. After the close of the meeting the people asked for a branch to be opened in this district, to the great delight of Dr. Sally. Two propagandists who, having misunderstood the aims and objects of the organization, told the rural guards that Dr. Sally was tellish Negroes to hate the white man. They arrested Dr. Sally, who spent a very bad night in the lock-up. Dr. Sally showed the constitution and other documents to the judge, after which he was given his release. Dr. Sally went to the capital city, Holguin, and obtained a standing permission to hold meetings. After he obtained permission he returned and opened the meeting in the usual way. The constitution was read, and according to the constitution the following officers were elected, namely: Executive secretary, Brother R. A. King; general secretary, E. Thomas; treasurer, G. E. Winter, and A. C. Sharp, chairman of trustee board; Mrs. S. Goodridge, lady president; Mussia Holthan, lady secretary; A. Hamilton, chaplain; A. Dyer, secretary of the trustee board. These officers were elected for the division by the members, with the exception of the president. A motion was then made by the executive secretary, Brother R. A. King, and seconded by Brother A. Dyer, that the organizer, Dr. Sally, set in the place of president. This was heartily agreed upon. Dr H. Sally then instructed the officers in their respective duties. The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem. MILWAUKEE . WISCONSIN On Sunday, September 7, the Milwaukee Division held a reception in honor of our president, Mr. Bosy Hale, on the occasion of his return from the convention.

S. J. Manning. The next speaker of the evening was our lady president, Mrs. Josephine Ferrell, who addressed the division on "Loyalty to Our Cause." Mrs. Ferrell has held this office for three years and is, therefore, well qualified to speak on the subject. She cautioned our members not to weaken and fall by the wayside but to press on toward the goal, fighting the enemies with zeal, and giving service and money as a sacrifice for the redemption of our motherland, Africa. After the program a delightful supper was served to the 500 persons present by the Sunshine Club and black Cross Nurses. The success of the reception was largely due to the unfiring efforts of our wide-awake vice-president, Perry Love, who never seems satisfied unless he is putting something over for the uplift of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.

For long, and sorrowfully so, the selfish Negro politician has sold our race for a mess of pottage. We have been called upon by crafty Negro newspaper men and other political jobbers to vote for Mr. So-and-So, to the injury of the race and the enrichment of the Negro political grafter who sells his services for dollars and not principles. The old gang of Negro politicians has sold the race for ready cash and jobs for a few. The time has come to call a halt. We will vote for and support men for election to office, not for payment in dollars, but for principles and policies. If you receive pay for your vote, directly or indirectly through our so-called political leaders, then we may expect nothing in return, but when you vote for candidates because of principles and politics, then you have all to gain. The old Negro politician is crooked and self-seeking. He has no character and no soul. He sells the vote of his race for money. He doesn't of himself subscribe to party funds, but he hankers after what he can get from the campaign funds subscribed by others to sell the Negro's vote. The Negro must learn to support his own political principles or policies, not only with his vote, but with his money; hence, the Universal Negro Political Union supports candidates at its own cost and doesn't ask for financial return. Ninety-nine and one-half per cent of the old Negro politicians who are now serving in the campaign are paid parrots who have no opinion of their own, but who are selling their conscience and vote for the highest prices. For one price they start out Republican and for a higher price in a fortnight they are something else. Everybody has found out that the old Negro politician is tricky and deceitful and nobody will believe him. He cannot handle a dollar straight. We vote no longer under his instruction, but under the leadership of the Universal Negro Political Union. Let every Negro register and vote on the 4th of November for principles, policies and faithful men who are friends of our race. The four million members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in America are being directed by the Universal Negro Political Union to vote for and follow the candidates and individuals we have recommended. Vote for and follow every one of the men we support, for they are tried and true friends of the race. No true member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will fail to cast his vote on the 4th of November for the men of our choice. Don't follow the old type Negro politician; he will sell you into slavery again. UNIVERSAL NEGRO POLITICAL UNION WILLIAM L. SHERRILL G. E.

OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey EARLY two months ago ninety physicians, sanitarians and statisticians held a medical conference at Kingston, Jamaica, British West Indies. Only white men attended this conference, the purpose of which is briefly stated by Dr. William Dodds, medical superintendent of the United Fruit Company, in his opening speech as follows: "There is a belt of land, extending many miles on either side of the equator, adequately suited to cultivation and capable of producing food for millions, the use of which is denied to the white race unless they live under conditions which are irksome, and at time insupportable. This is the territory we have got to clean up. We must make it habitable because a failing coal supply, deforestation and increasing rigors of living in the North yearly are driving more and more people to the tropics, where food is less difficult to obtain and where living conditions are easier in every way." It is peculiar that although this convention met in Jamaica, where Negroes are in the majority and far outnumber the whites, and for a purpose so detrimental to the natives, no word of protest came from the colored press of that island or that section of the globe. It may be that some of our men have not grasped the significance of the conference. Then it is our duty to enlighten Negro women on the purposes and plans of the doctors and those who sent them to the convention. It is well known that tropical diseases are the same the world over, hence the diseases that are peculiar to the West Indies are more or less peculiar to Africa. It is not surprising then that England and France should have sent the largest number of medical experts to the conference; it is all in keeping with their plans of exploitation of the black man's countries which are in the tropical belt. It is fortunate that in the divine order of things the white man was not made physically fitted to withstand the rigors of the tropical regions. If he had, Africa and the West Indies would have been well populated by white men, the majority of black men buried under the sod and a few left to be the servants of the invaders. White occupation and exploitation of the tropics as it is today is enormous, but the lands are not entirely lost to the Negro race, if black men will organize and pledge themselves to redeem their native habitats and use the knowledge gained from their contact with white civilization to protect their country, their nation, and their homes. White men are working day and night in their council chambers, in their chemical and research laboratories, on their platforms and writing literature for the expansion and supremacy of their race. It is time for black men to stop fooling themselves that they are the wards of the other race and as such the latter will think and plan for them. White men are only interested in themselves and intelligent Negroes who can't see and understand that, are just too lazy and selfish to get busy and plan and work for this weak, down-trodden race of ours. Surplus white populations must find room to live. Bankrupt, half-starved Europe must find fields from which she can get raw materials for her economic and industrial livelihood. Cut off all outside supplies from Europe today and in a few weeks her population would starve. It is a desparate situation and white men are using desperate methods to save themselves. Why should some black men remain inactive and censure the white man's actions and appeal to his moral ethics? It is a struggle for existence. It is life or death for his children and their children, and the white man, unlike our men, think always for the future. The medical experts did not confer for the humanitarian purpose of teaching the natives hygiene and sanitation, but they were explicit enough in their statements and as Dr. Decks states, "the work will be done little by little until the tropics will be just as safe for the white man as little old New York." West Indians particularly will remember the construction days of the Panama Canal, when black laborers were allowed to live on the zone, but as soon as the place was made habitable for the whites, the blacks were segregated and until now are made to suffer the same humiliations and injustices as their brothers in the Southland of these United States. The Canal Zone has been made safe for the white man and naturally so safe for the black man that his property is not his and his life is not his, if the white man feels like taking either. In short, he lives on the tolerance of the white usurper. But who is to blame, and who will remedy these conditions before the world is lost to the black man, as a nation and race?

NOTES OF INTEREST NOTES OF INTEREST The Destiny of Weaklings of America "We have been told that the increase in the world's population in the last century or two, because of improved social and economic conditions, will soon fill the world to capacity. "In this country we do ourselves the pleasure of maintaining the weaklings of society at the expense of the community. We can do this because we are not pressed by the hard conditions of existence. But as our population rises and our land fills to capacity we shall no longer have sympathy to expand on other individuals and nations. Of all forms of national aggression the most aggressive is to maintain an increasing population and an area fully utilised. What form of international inquiry and publicity can adequately control such a menace to world's peace?"—Admiral H. P. Huse. Japan Leads Asia For Racial Equality Japan's position at Geneva points invitably to the conclusion that Japan is aiming at racial equality in the only way she sees a possibility of getting it — by establishing; a world position so strong that the white race must yield or be crushed. Dictator of Asia: first; then will be time enough to raise the immigration issue in earnest and dare the combined resistance of the United States and the British empire. Dictator of Asia: How? By unification of the yellow races, peres, that is to say, by complete domination of China by Japan. By an alliance with Russia, perhaps—an alliance forced, mayrap, through Japan's hold on the island of Sakhalin, which is one of Russia's rare spots—invent Fort. Shall We Obey? English women are starting another fight to eliminate the word "obey" from the marriage ceremony. Their objection is well founded not merely on the ground that no woman should have to pledge herself to obey a husband as her lord and master, but because it no longer means anything. No man, of course, has the right to demand abject obedience from his wife, and no woman in these days would give it if he did—Harlem Home News After the Bob Comes the Wig When women hob their hair, as most of them do, they cannot keep it looking well unless they curl it every day. If you wear your hair long, that is different. You can arrange it quite nicely as it is. It's the constant curling that wears out hair. Lots of them, too, dye their hair and blight it. All that helps to wear it out, so that pretty it begins, to get thief and strangely. Only the strongest kind of hair can stand the strain. There's no way but to get a wig. It hasn't taken long for the girl with the boy to realize that. In fact, half the good-looking girls you see walking down Broadway are wearing wigs. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2024 Civilised humanity is becoming shorter in stature. Future generations will be still shorter. And the motor vehicle in the cause. Modern civilization, with its intricacies, its artificial safeguards in the struggle for existence, its substitutes for our natural qualities in the performance of our work and the substitution of machinery for man-power, not content with dulling the acute senses of sight and hearing which mankind possessed in its un civilized state, is now shortening the height of people. The motor vehicle is the devil's instrument in this work of destruction in Harlem, Yorkville and Washington Heights. Shortening Height According to Dr. Benjamin Lavine, 1000 Union avenue, graduate of the New York Homeopathic Flower Hospital, Sixty-eighth street and East River, United States army doctor during the world war, surgeon and general practitioner, people's legs are growing shorter from riding about too much in autos and consequent lack of exercise. "For the last five or six years I have noticed that many automobile drivers are suffering from congestion of the bones of the foot, due to lack of exercise," said he. "This bone congestion in the foot causes the centers of ossification to become more compact. The bone coils then lack room to spread out, causing the bones to be a little more compact and harder than they should be normally. This condition will eventually cause a shortening of the extremities of the bones of the foot." "Only recently," he continued. "I had a few cases of adolescence, ranging from 18 to 20 years of age, where the bones of the foot have infringed upon one another, all due to excessive motoring, thus preventing the normal disposition of the bone to grow to its proper length. "I believe that eventually this will affect the height of future generations. Savage Better Physically" "The savage's sense of hearing, of smell, of taste is more acute than that of his civilized neighbor. He is a better man physically than the civilized man, although both have been originally endowed by nature with the same faculties. The primitive man made use of these qualities; his environment compelled him. The man of today does not find their use as essential, with a consequent deterioration. His food is obtained and his work done by mechanical means. So, gradually, he is losing control of those senses with which nature endowed him. "The position that the motorist is forced to assume in driving causes abnormal body curvature. The bones of the hip, called the pelvic bones, are taking up an abnormal curvature, their respective outlines causing an abnormal position of these bones in relation to the bones of the leg and spine. "Women drivers especially should beware of this cramped position. It may lead to a contracted pelvis, which will hinder childbirth. "When we push the clutch or the brake with the foot we force the pelvic bones backward, thus disturbing the regular contour of the pelvic structure. Will Affect Childbirth? "I would venture to say that in two or three generations this abnormally shaped female pelvis may constitute a permanent difficulty, that medical men will have to deal with in childbirth, eventually leading to the common use of the Caesarean operation for childbirth." The ordinary type of shoe, according to Dr. Levine, does not allow us to walk as we should. Most shoes, he says, are for purposes of adornment and not for utility.

SETTING EXAMPLES FOR CHILDREN Parents Who Live Correctly Find Less Necessity for Scolding Children The mother of a small daughter was planning a visit to her sister in the country. As part of the preliminaries, she was telephoning her sister and to do so had first to ask for the rural operator. Several requests met only a busy signal, and the mother became occupied with other things. But the little girl, impatient for her country visit and inclined to frown at anything which might postpone it, sought out her mother and said: "Mother, don't you think you'd better call that 'ruel operator' as you?" Underneath her amusement at the misused word that mother had a lurking feeling that something in her own attitude had given the child the idea that the operator was cruel. In fact, she had noticed, as most mothers do, that children are especially adept at aping the manner of their elders when using the telephone. Watch any child with its play-telephone and one will see it using the mannerisms, the expressions and the forms of address which exactly duplicate those of its mother or father. Setting Right Examples Setting Right Examples The parent has to talk with the proud enjoyment of parenthood the continuous responsibility of setting right examples. For sometimes children's alert eyes and cats see and hear more than their limited reasoning powers can properly interpret. Consternation was caused by a tiny girl's remark when one of her father's bachelor friends was present. The father was called to the telephone by a friend who asked him to join a party going on a fishing expedition. Out of a clear conversational sky the child finished this devastating comment: "Well, I do hope daddy can go, for he never gets to go anywhere, and if he even stays down—a little while mother just scolds and scolds him." Now, the real explanation of this sweeping statement lay in the mother's having disapproved the night before of her husband giving up his whole evening after an unusually busy day to arduous but gratuitous committee work of doubtful importance. But imagine any wife convincingly explaining such a remark to her husband's bachelor friends: In this particular instance she was perfectly certain that their visitor was in no wise convinced of the sincerity of even the light-hearted laughter with which she and her husband received this joke on themselves. Twas a wise philosopher who said that children need more models than critics. It's a bit hard on parents to be continually cast in the role of model, but when they play it successfully they lessen the likelihood of having to shift to that of critic. A young father and mother of two boys found that by permitting the children to take part in the discussion of household problems and by giving to their every question seriously put a serious reply to the boys very early an ununderstanding of how the home and the community operated and of the contribution due from each individual to his environment.

We see native owl corks at marshs from stitto to a hundred pounds per annum, becoming enormously rich. After less than a decade's service, it is quite the usual thing for such an official of Color to erect a bungalow costing a thousand pounds. His district officer remains acquiescent; it is simply an effect of "the system, don't you know!" We see interior chiefs bitterly resentful of the "casual" manner these young white officials, executive, police, military. They simply "skim" through the villages at irregular Intervale, and they are freezing "un-get-at-able." Discussions of the health, and good-fortune of the smaller towns are not now observed with the "big men." The court clerk is more than ever a little tin God on wheels. We see roads, distant from the main trade routes of each division of the province, in such a deplorable state that even a cycle has difficulty in passing through the undergrowth. We see even the few trunk roads themselves in a state of disrepair, that has not been equalled since 1914. In the Onitaha township itself the trade routes are shamelessly neglected. Yet there dees (somehow) always seem enough revenue to make good the routes that link government bungalows with the centres of recreation. (Like, the parrot, one thinks a let and says little, when confronted by such aspects of the rights of Official V Trader!) We see general delay in routine work, in almost every government department. It would be an easy task to find in this district alone half a dozen trading concerns who have waited for land deeds over a year. To sum up, instead of being "certainly overworked and numerically inadequate" we are officials multiplied and multiplied until they are all over the place like rabbits. Why argue the point, when the Nigeria Handbook is there to establish statistics? Compare 1910 with 1924—and yet trade is comparatively less, while taxation is unbearable more. Trade is being strangled by taxation, and the native is at breaking point. But, West Africa must, dear me, be right! And dear me, a mere trader must, willy-nilly, be wrong. So, dear Mr. Editor, the world wags. "For a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter." Yours faithfully, J. M. STUART YOUNG.

Soon after the news of the hurricane reached New York City, Virgin Islands' residents, under the leadership of Mr. Camper Holstein, got together to raise funds with which to help the islanders restore their property and homes. A Relief Committee, of Virgin Islanders was formed, with Mr. Holstein at the head, and held its first meeting September 16. Upwards of fifteen loyal natives of the Virgin Islands responded to Mr. Holstein's call and expressed a willingness to serve on the committees. On the 16th of the very same month the committee made its first report, showing over $500 collected in the interest of the noteworthy cause. The very next day Mr. Holstein was able to cable $500 to the American Red Cross at St. Thomas as a contribution to the relief work being done under its auspices. Following this up, the Virgin Islanders in New York last week sent an additional $500 to the Red Cross at St Thomas, making a total of $1,000 donated by Virgin Islanders in the city and forwarded in the interest of such a worthy cause, all in the space of four weeks. The man who should be congratulated for this noble contribution to charity and uplift is Mr. Casper Holstein, who more than any other leader of his time, has a genius for extracting harmony out of discord, and unity out of chaos and dissension. ROLAND HAYES' CONCERT One of the most important concerts of the season now beginning will be the appearance of Roland Hayes, the remarkable Negro tonor, in Carnegie Hall on Saturday afternoon, October 25. Roland Hayes, as is well known, returned to America last season with the very highest regard of Europe to commend him to us. His introductory tour of his own country left no shred of doubt as to his greatness. Indeed, no singer in years has had such a reception by our public. Wherever he went, North, South or West, there came the same expressions of enthusiasm and of surprise—despite preceding high reports. Roland Hayes immediately placed himself among those enviably few artists who need only announce a recital in order to fill the hall to overflowing. Standing on the stage, before he begins to sing, he presents to the eye no striking or unusual trait. The song engrosses him completely, and stricly in his singing lies his powerful appeal. The numberless eulogies of his volco and of his utter command of it cannot adequately convey the peculiar charm and stirring beauty of Roland Hayes' singing. His grasp of style and diction, in Old English-songs, French songs and German lieder, is perhaps best attested by the praise his singing of them has met in their own countries. The poignancy of the Negro spirituals has surely never had so inspired an interpreter. The truly great personalities in musical performance, each of them a unique figure, may almost be counted on one hand. Roland Hayes has definitely taken his place among them. The program for the coming recital will include: Mozart, Concert Arla, "Per pieta, non ricercate"; Schubert, "To the Lyre"; Schumann, "The Spirit's Presence"; Hugo Wolf, "Reflectiona"; Griffes, "In a Myrtle Shade"; Whepley, "I Know a Hill"; Storey-Smith, "A Caravan from China Comes"; Negro Spirituals, "I've Got a Home in That Rock"; "Poor Sinner's Found a Home at Last"; "Ride on Jesus." THE NEGRO INTRODUCED THE JAZZ SONG AND DANCE There are a good many reasons why the Sisle and Blake show, "The Chocolate Dandies," at the Colonial Theatre, justly ranks among the big musical comedy successes on Broadway. Productions like this, in the first place, are the agarest thing to the old-time colorful entertainment; the typical Southern comedy and Dixie song and dance once largely confined to minstrel shows are the mainstay of presentations like "The Chocolate Dandies." The popular liking for this sort of diversion seems to be as keen as ever. The Southern Negro introduced jazz song and dance and has played a prominent part in the development of this typical American style of music. Naturally, Jazz is a striking feature of "The Chocolate Dandies," with Euble Blake, who composed the music, directing the big Symphony Orchestra, and Nobile Sisle, the other star, jazzing through songs and dances with a gusto no black-face star can match. The race-track scene makes way for the principal comedians, Johnny Hudgeons and Low Payton, two comics who have few rivals. It also makes a feature of the most exciting race staged since the charlotte rattled gloriously under the spotlight in "Ben Hur." Then, again, where, oh, where did Sissie and Blake corral that bevy of bewitching, bouncing brunettes, who form an ensemble which for neon singing JULIAN MITCHELL WIZARD OF STAGE CRAFT SAYS: "WHEN IT COMES TO SWUFFLUN FEET THESE CHOCOLATE DANDIES BEAT SO IT'S 100 TO 1 SHOT SUSCLE - BLAKE COUNTRY AUTHOR SHUFFLE ALONG AND CAST SHORES 125 FAMOUS UNSTERS WILL BE THE CITY THOSH WHO KNOW DOWNS LIMITED & MARKET COLONIAL THEATRE WARDROBE 8.20 AM, 3:40 PM ONLY SHOWING TWO HOURS ON DAYS CONVENTION AND GENERAL FUND OF UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION FOR 1924-BIG GATHERING OF NEGROES FROM ALL PARTS OF WORLD aid dancing has not been equaled by any other musical production appearing in New York to date? It certainly is a joy to the eye and a delight to the ear.

DISCRIMINATION IN PUBLIC SERVICE A CRYING SHAME Possibly the most exasperating evil from which the colored people of this country suffer is discrimination, and segregation in the employment of this government of ours. It seems very hard to make the people outside of Washington realize that there is such rank discrimination and segregation by the present Republican administration. Un-American, and unjustifiable segregation exists in practically every department of the government here in Washington. In addition to the wholesale segregation in the departments, there is the application of the principles of the Ku Klux Klan to the colored applicants by the Civil Service Commission and the appointment clerk of the various divisions and bureaues. Here is where the rankest of discrimination takes place. First, by requirement of photograph with application for examination; and second, after the applicant has passed that outer defense there is the main obstruction—the petty, cheap, niggersky assistant appointment clerk, who, by instruction or assumed authority, arbitrarily turns down a colored-applicant after he or she has passed the examinations, been duly certified by the Civil Service Commission and actually received notice, by letter, to report for duty. Our economic and property rights are involved in this rank discrimination and a court test should be made to prove our equity in the matter. During the war, we were conscripted according to our population, to fight to maintain, or rather to make, this country as well as the world safe for democracy. We demand the right to employment in the departments of our government in the same proportion as she conscripted us, to fight. If we were CONVENTION AND G UNIVERSAL NEGRO IN CIATION FOR 1924— NEGROES FROM ALL The Universal Negro Improvement Association is now appealing to the members of the organization and members of the race everywhere to do their best to make the convention of 1924 the greatest of all our world concludes. This year the organization is to discuss at its convention all those vital problems that effect the race and to lay down a solid base for the industrial elevation and development of our people. This year's convention will be far ahead in importance of all the other meetings and will call for a great deal of expenditure on the part of the parent body of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, hence this appeal is made to each and every one to contribute to our general and convention fund. Let every Negro give freely as much as he can afford toward this fund so as to assist the Association to carry out its work. All members should collect and send in to the fund.

As poor people this economic discrimination against us by our supposed friends, the Republicans, can not be remedied by a few individual political appointments as yesteryear. We will not permit our political steedores to sell our rights, as native citizens of this country, to undiscriminated employment by our government, for a few appointments for the political hacks, leaving the masses untouched, non-benefited and unemployed.

Salut. Au milieu de la grande confusion mondiale qui regne à cette heure nous sonnies appelés à contribuer pour notre part à la realisation de l'ideal général, de mieux vers lequel convergent les aspirations du genre humain. En tout lieu, les unites qui composent la grande famille humaine élèvent leurs voix et prodiguer leur influence en tout et partout ou il s'agit de faire triphorer les adees de paix et de bienveillance générales. Nous aussi, nous devons lutter et combattre dans ce sens. En tant que race, nous voulons obtenir, parmi les changements qui actuellement s'opère dans l'économie du monde, obtenir une situation industrielle et économique plus avantageuse. C'est à dire nous voulons jeter les bases d'un avenir économique que nous pourrons acroirre et développer jusqu'à devenir nous-mêmes, comme peuple, une des forces humaines aveu lesquelles il faut compter. Pour la réalisation de ce voeu la U. N. I. A. a conçu et élaboré le projet de relier tous les groupements noirs généralement quelconque en une vaste combiné industrielle et commerciale. Une observation attentive des choses, nous a permis de nous rendre compte que les relations commerciales tendent à développer les peuples, races ou nations son-seulement au dehors mais au de-dans également. C'est par ces sortes de relations que l'Angleterre, la France et les Etats-Unis doivent la place qu'elle occupent aujourd'hui dans la grande famille des nations. Par conséquent nous qui sommes jeunes encore et novices dans cette voie devons faire des efforts dans ce sens, pour que, dans les temps à venir nous aussi, visualisant les progrès realisés, contemplant les étapes parcourrures, puissions nous rejoir de les avoir accomplis au prix du laboreur commun et des efforts perseverants de tous et de chacun. Si nous devons réaliser effectivement la consolidation de la race dans cette grande combine commerciale, il nous faudra encore et encore des bateaux. "Il nous faudra une flotte assez nombreuse pour aller quirir sur les cotes d'Afrique et les ports de l'Amerique du sud et du centre au Nord que ceux des Antilles, les matieres premières avec qui alimenter les usines et les ateliers negres des Etats-Unis, d'ou elles seront redistribuées sur les marches du monde, sous forme de produits manufactures, a notre grand avantage materiel. A cette fin nous voulons faire tout ce qui est humainement possible en vue de réaliser les $48,000 qu'il nous manquent pour parfaire le solde de la première unité de notre marine marche. Le SS. Général G. W. Geib's, dont nous avons fait acquisition sera rebaptise le Booker T. W. Washington. Il faut que ce bateau soit entierement degreve avant de passer en nos mois. Pour cette raison il nous faut obtenir le concours material de tous les membres de TU. N. I. A. et de toutes les personnes de la race. Cette somme nous fait un besoin, immédiat, il nous la faut sans retard; ce qui veut dire aujourd'hui, a present même; pas demain en au-demain, maintenant même. Par consequent, ce message a pour laurier de demande, a tous et chacun de faire son devoir. On ne pourra nous en souhaiter qu'en envoyer à la Black Cross Navigation and Leading Company une suspension de $20, $25, $50, $100, $200, $300, $400, $500, on antient pour laura, pour cing on six ans, et rapportant na meridie de 5% dans Ne nous refusez pas cet argent s'il est en votre pouvoir de nous le consentir en emprunt, car en le cédant à la corporation vous lui permetrez de séabir france de dette, et de lancer dans de homes conditions cette entreprise commerciale et mondié de la race. Noirs: bien, MM., que l'efort qu'on sollicite de vous est très minime en comparison de ce que d'autres ont en à produire pour pouver et le legume infime d'on sont sorties, plus tard, de ces instituitoires giganteques qui sont aujourd'hui les piliers sur lesquels repose la stabilité du monde. Avec ce faible noyau comme point de depart, nous pourrons edifier gooduellement une Afrique et une Ethiopie complément rédiminés, et redevenues comme nageure les premiers peuples commerciales de la terre. Des bateaux, des bateaux, tel est le besoin le plus urgent de la race. Des bateaux qui coignent le globe; des bateaux qui ont cette envisage, les groupement negroides; qui servent de trait d'animation entre les noirs d'Amerique, leurs frères de L'archipel de Antilles, ceux de L'Amerique du Sud et du Centre et ceux d'Afrique, la mété-patrice. Le pouvons-nous? Oui nous le pouvons; mais à la seule condition que tous et chacun fasse son devoir et le fasse instamment. Et nous le ferons. Noirs d'Amerique, et des Antilles, l'appel que nous vous adressons est l'expression d'un besoin urgent pressant, immédiat. Eaites votre devoir sans delai. N'attenderas à demain, à la semaine prochaine, à l'année prochaine. Ce qu'il est en votre, pouvoir de faire, faites le sur l'heure. Nous qui dirigeons l.U. N. L. A. comptons absolument sur vous; et nous sommes fermement persuadés que d'ici quelques jours vous aurez complètement souscrire le montant de la solde qu'il nous reste à payer pour que ce bateau devienne de fait le propriétaire absolu de la race noire. Persuadés que vous ne vous ferez pas défaut en cette pressante conjuncture, mais que vous vous empressiez de contribuer pour votre part a la réussite de cette entreprise si vitale aux intérêts de la race noire, et formant pour vous les voeux les meilleurs. L'ihonneur d'être. PARIS. — On admet officiellement que les troupes françaises ont traversé hier la frontière du Maroc espagnol sans que cela signifie leur intention de demeurer la zone envahie; on explique qu'à l'issue d'un combat de trois jours, les français ont repoussé les Marocains au dela de la Ligne du partage du Riff espagnol, les troupes françaises ont suspendu les hostilités au sud du Riff, mais attendent la fin de la campagne Espagnole pour avancer si les espagnols sont obligés de se retirer complètement. Les observateurs indiquent que le dictateur Primo de Rivera, joue sa dermière carte, dirigeant lui-même les operations des troupes Espagnoles, car en cas d'un désagre une grave situation interne surgne en Espagne. 135TH STREET BETATS UNIS D'AMERIQUE Nice Harlem 2877 Araissant chaque samedi, publié dans et de l'Association Universelle pour et la Ligue de Communautés etus Garvey, Directeur-Editeur NEMENTS: Etranger 3 Mois ..... $1.25 6 Mois ..... 2.00 1 An ..... 3.00 sont invariablement payable d'avance ation et Rédaction NEW YORK, E.

GERMAINE MALATERE-SELLER Dans Le Newswrite Il y eut à Lyon, au cour du récent Congrès de l'Union internationale des Associations pour la Société des Nations, une minute de poignante emotion. Ce fut lorsque le délegerue de la petite République d'Haiti vint, devant l'Assemblée plénière, demander justice contre les Etats-Unis, en exposant la douloureuse situation de sa patrie. Un petit pays de race noire, contenant à peine 2½ millions d'habitants, se dresser en accusateur devant les représentants de 30 nations du plus puissant des Etats du Monde! . cela sema bien audacieux à quelques délégués. Ils tentent d'étouffer les plaintes du petit Etat, dans la craine de mécenteret/jagrande République américaine, à moment où son entree dans la Société des Nations et si ardement souhaitée. Mais l'Asssemblée plenière soutient haudement le délégué d'Haiti lorsqu'il déclara: "Je suis envoyé ici par le peuple haïtien qui son par sou a reuni l'argent de mon voyage. Les procédés de la vieille diplomatie secrète sont perimés. Vous représentez l'effort de tous les peuples du monde pour realiser par la Société des Nations la justice internationale et vous ne voudrez pas étouffer le cr; et d'tresse d'un Etat, parce qu'il est faible parmi les plus faibles". M, Belegarde, délégué d'Haiti, put done, au milieu de la plus vive sympathie, narrer l'angoissante situation de son pays. La République d'Haiti est un Etat souverain et indépendant. Comme souelle, elle a sa représentation diplomatique; elle signe le traité de Versailles et est un des États Membres fondateurs de la Société des Nations. Et cependant en 1915, les Etats-Unis sans aucune déclaration préalable d'hostilities, sans qu'aucune agression ou aucun malentendu justifiat le action, débarquement des troupes et depuis occupent militairement l'Ille d'Haiti. On sait ce que toute occupation militaire compo te de vexations et de souf frances . Mais il faut avoir entendu le douloureux récit du délegué, pour devoir ce que peut-être l'occupation des Americans qui sont encore, helas! si fortent soum aux préjuges des races. Pourquoi cette occupation, diria- ton? M. Buckler, délégue des Etats- Unis, tent de la justifier, devant le Congrès de Lyon, en disant que la République d'Haiti était en proie à de continuel des révolutions et que les Américains sont venus rétabilir Lordre et la tranquillité. A cela, M. Bellegarde avait d'avance repondu qu'aucun pays ne peut imposer sa loi à un autre, et il avait rappelé que le President Wilson, au nom de la liberté des Peuples avait refusé d'intérvenir dans les affaires du Mexique au moment où celui-ci était en pleine révolution. Mais seule, la république d'Haiti ne peut scourer le joug étranger qui pousse sur elle. La Presse Haitienne est sous le controle sévère des États-Unis, les élections à tous les grés sont supprimées, les Haitiens sont arbitrairement soumis aux plus durs travaux, arrachiss à leur famille et transportés de force à l'Auret bout du pays. Certains journalaux américains tentent d'accréditer la faible d'une nation d'une civilisation fort arrierée, presque cannibale. Mais on fait vite justice de cette allegation mensongère, lorsque l'on a entendu M. Bellegarde s'exprimer en un français d'une élégance et d'une pureté irroproachables et declarer: "J'ai fait toutes mes études à Haiti. J'ai préparé mon certificat d'études dans une école primaire de Port-au-Prince; j'ai passé mes baccalauréats et j'ai fait mon droit dans les universités et facultés de mon pays." Et avec une émotion profonde, en apprend qu'à Haiti, l'enseignement est obligatoire et gratuit à tous les degrees et que le programme des études primaires, secondaires et supérieures est exactement le programme des études françaises. . . . Cest que l'ile lointaine se réclame de la civilisation et de la culture française. Les esclaves haitiens brisérent leurs chaines en un clan irresistible lorsqu'ils apprivent en 1789 que la France venait de proclamer les Droits de l'Homme et du citoyen, et lorsque Napoléon Premier voulut rétablir l'esclavage de nos colonies les se soulevent au chant de la Marscillaise et exigent lour liberté, au nom même des principes de la Révolution Française. Cest à la Société des Nations qui appartient de faire cesser au plus tôt l'opression qui pese sur ce petit peuple et, pour que le verdict de la Société des Nations soit plus opérant, il faut souhaiter que les États-Unis en fassent bientôt partie. D'ailleurs, en Amérique même des espirits généreux et éclairées se sont amis et protestent contre l'inquiétude commune. Mais nous croyons que l'opinion publique française ne doit pas rester indifférente à la juste cause d'L'Italie. En écoutant le délegué d'Haiti L'EMFANT NOIR Un Poème de William Blake William Blaha, poète anglais, né en 1827, fut, dans l'histoire de la littérature et de l'art anglais, une figure des plus originales et des plus remarquables. Ecrivain, desinateur, pointeur, graveur, il illustrait lui-même ses ouvrages et les imprimait avec des caractères et des encres de couleur de sa propre fabrication. Il publia, en 1889, un recueil de petits-poèmes, intitulé "The Songs of Innocence ("Les Chants de l'Innocence"). On y sent une âme d'artiste et de vrai poète et aussi un coeur tendre aux faibles et aux désherités, indigné des injustices, humaines, des préjugés absurdes. L'un de ces poèmes, "L'Enfant Noir," exprimé bien sa conception de la coefraternité des races. Ma mère m'enfant dans les déserts éranges Et je suis noir, hélas! mais mon coeur est tout blanc. L'enfant de l'Angleterre est blanc comme les anges; Moi, je sus nos comme la nuit, bien quinnocent. Ma mère, sous un arbre, un jour voulu m'instruire; (Les feux brûlants du jour ne daraient pas encor). Assis sur ses genoux, je l'entendis me dire. Me mcontrant l'orient et n'embrassant bien fort: "Vois le soleil levant, de Dieu la résidence. Dieu donne sa chaleur et sa lumière aussi. Homme, arbres, pêtes, fleurs, à chacun il dispense. Réconfort le matin, allégresse à midi. "Nous sommes ici-bas pour un très court espace." Pour apprendre à sentir les rayons de l'amour. Notre corps basané, et notre noire face. Sont un bocage ombreux, un nuage d'un jour. "Quand notre coeur saura soutenir cette flamme." Le nuage fuira. Dieu viendra nous parler. Disant: "Sors du bocage, o mon souci, mon âme." Prés de mes tentes d'or, agneau, viens follâtrer." Ainsi parla ma mère en baisant mon visage. Et moi je le répète au petit enfant v. blanc. Quand mon nuage noit et quand son blanc nuage. Auront fui, pres de Dien nous iron- follâtrant. Je le protegeai contre le fen qu blesse. Devant Dien notre père al Sage nouillera. Sur ses chèvoux d'argent je nettrai ma caresse. Je lui ressembleai mon fré- minera.

En el diario de la tarde! La Nuestra Prensa de San José, Costa Rica, y en su número de junio 18 aparcé el artículo que a continuación insertamos firmado por un JUAN JOSE, quien aunque nís bien trágico que dramático, debe ser tambien más blanco que el Kaiser y sangre más pura y más azul que ta de Luis XVI. He aqui el producto (labor de confraternidad) del que responde al nombre del protagonista de la famosa obra de Echegaray: El aumento de la población negra en nuestra República? "¿Como evitarlo? "Lo que todos hablan en la calle, lo que todos piensan y lo que ningun periodico recoge porque eso no es nota sensacional del dia (grave error quiza) eso es lo que nosotros queremos publicar. Y sin necesidad de buscar el tenia, salta a nuestros ojos ese que todos los días promueve una discusión, que al revize de todas las discusiones, concluye por amar los páreceres en una voz de protesta unanime por la incuria de quienes pueden evitar un mal y no lo hacen. Lo que todos hablan es lo que el pueblo piensa. Vox pupuli vox Dei. El peliago negro ¿Es un terror demasiado sin razon el que asombra nuestra retina hacia el mirage más grande un peligro? No, es la noción exacta de un mal que se exitie de que nos hace hablar. Lo que se ha llamado el peligro negro, con igual o mayor-razon que se ha dado el nombre de peligro amarillo a la continua — y aunque lenta y efectiva— invasion de asiaticos que sufrimos. El peligro negro es un peligro real. ¿Quien no se ha dado cuenta del progresivo aumento de la población negra en el Este de la República y aun en la misma capital, del talmana que se sienten las terribles consecuencias de ese aumento? El origen del mal No pudiendo emplear gentes del país para los trabajos agrícolas en la región denominada la lima, la United Fruit Co. trajo unos cuantos centenares de agregos de Jamaica y Cuba. Esa fue tal vez la primera población de origen africano que ingreso a Costa Rica y que multiplicandose de una manera asombrosa, han realizado el milagro infeliz de convertir los centenares en millares hasta llegar a una cifra que no debe de bajar de veinte y cinco mil. De ese manera, si antes protestaban, porque muestro puertor del Atlántico era una posición vanker repensando allegandos, fieles fielmente, que es una posición o a los menos un peligro de Atlántica, eso si bastante probable. Decantando que los puestos, en cadaidal de unmanes centro, todacribes posibles, son tres arcos enLincoln, deliones hacer notar quemuestra capital, y una provincia comoCortago, cuyos climas deletososon orgullo de sus habitantes, no necesen de ellos para nada y queante bien les ocaen un perjuigogrande.

Tome nota de estas manifestaciones la raza en general y principal- De entre la —gran confusion universal existente somos nosotros llamados para tomar parte en el reajuste de los acontecimientos humanos en bien general. Cada unidad de la familia humana hace que su voz sea escuchada y su influencia sea sentida en la promoción de aquellos esfuerzos y de aquellos dieales que tiendan a proporcionar paz y prosperidad. En la operacion de los cambios que hayan de realizarse, nosotros como raza anhelamos el mejoramiento de nuestra condición económica e industrial. En concreto, deseamos establecer una base sobre la cual podamos constituirnos y desarrollarnos convirtiéndonos en una de las fuerzas humanas reconocidas universalmente. Para que todo esto sea posible, la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra ha delineado los planes para fundir en una gran unión comercial e industrial, el elemento de nuestra raza en los distintos continentes del globo. Realizamos que la relación comercial de una raza, de un pueblo ó de una nación, es un gran factor para su desenvolvimiento tanto interno como externo. Tal relación ha convertido a Inglaterra, a Francia, a este y a otros países en poderes predominantes en la hermandad de las grandes naciones, y por la misma razón luchamos nosotros para que en no lejano día podamos mirar hacia el progreso y sentirnos satisfechos de haber obtenido la recompensa de nuestros grandes esfuerzos. Para que nuestra raza llegue al éxito apetecido en este gran unión comercial e industrial, debe proveerse de medio de transporte; necesita vapores y mas vapores. Nuestra organización quiere embarcaciones que vayan a Africa, a sur, centro, norte America y a las Antillas, y transporten de esas secciones los productos materiales a nuestros propios centros manufactureros. El primer vaper que nuestra nueva corporación naviera ha comprado, debe estar libre de todo gravamen antes de su viaje inaugural, y con tal objeto dicha corporación solicita, prestamos como cooperación exclusiva de nuestro elemento. Respondiendo generosamente a esta llamada, prestando a esta nueva empresa todo cuanto podamos, nos veremos posibilitos para establecernos sin obligación alguna libres de toda deuda, emprender nuestra marcha sobre el vasto campo de la industria y del comercio, a nuestro mejor modo de entender. Recordemos que este es solamente un pequeño esfuerzo, en comparación con aquellos de las demás razas que de pequeños también, se han convertido en gigantes empresas las cuales son el punto de apoyo d la humanidad. De pequeños, nosotros también podemos convertirnos en grandes, redimiendo así nuestra patria y nuestra raza y llevando el timón en la dirección de nuestros propies intereses. Vapores y mas vapores, repetimos, es nuestra actual necesidad perentoria; vapores que circunden el universo; vapores que liguen mas estrechamente todos y cada uno de los distintos pueblos de nuestra raza; que pongan en mayor relación cordial a nuestro elemento de norte America, con el de centro y sur America y con todas las islas, del archipielago antillano. Dependiendo del esfuerzo colectivo de nuestro elemento en el sentido de cooperación, los que formananos parte integrante de esta organización estamos seguros de que dentro de breves dias nos veremos en posición de poder pagar el balance del primer vapor, pasando este a ser propiedad absoluta de nuestra raza. miente las diez y nueve divisiones de nuestra organización en el país de Don IUAN IOSI.

Presi- dent Lincoln mid: "You can fool some of the people all of the time, all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time." It is easily understood. Our tools, our buildings, our flying machines, are developed by the few exceptional thinkers of the white races. We ourselves, the Negro race as a whole, should develop and improve only as we think as a race. So think of Africa, think of a government for black men, by black men. Think of a race of 400,000,000 of a race and a people. WILLIAM H. WOOD, Harford, Conn.

Liberia Cannot Shut the Door Against Negro People To the Filler of The Negro World: I have read the letter from a Liberian in your issue of September 13. That letter has opened our eyes to the deplorable condition of our people in the Republic of Liberia. It is a disgrace to humanity, in these days when all people are looking forward to a higher civilization, that the men at the helm of this republic should allow such conditions to exist among their own race. Here we have the common people of Liberia calling to the Negroes of the western world to come over and help them; and on the other hand, we have the president of Liberia and his officials trying to close the door of Liberia in the face of law-abiding, respectable and intelligent Negroes. President King should hear in mind that certain concessions were given to the Universal Negro Improvement Association, under the seal of Liberia; and yet he has instructed his consul in America to appear to the Government at Washington to deny to the U.

The Fourteenth Amendment Will Not Be Abolished Permit me space in your valuable paper to comment on the enclosed clipping from the Detroit News. It's about the recent action taken by a certain white party to denounce Walter Cohen as Comptroller of Customs for the Port of New Orleans. La. According to the statement, Mr. Cohen has been a storm-center since he was first nominated to that office by the late President Warren G. Harding. Well, without going further, I'll stop here to say that the only true salvation for the Negro is the U. N. L. A. Mr. Garvey's words are coming true. Let all the Negro politicians, or "would-be" Presidents of the United States, take notice. They are now at leisure to laugh and jeer at poor Mr. Garvey, who is ready to sacrifice his life for this generous cause. I am tired of reading false statements by certain Negroes in white and colored newspapers quoting the U. N. I. A. and the "Back to Africa" slogan as a menace to Negro citizens. The time is nearing when every living Negro will know his place under the sun. I wish Mr. Gawry may live long enough to see his work accomplished. Detroit. Mich. G. JOSPH. B. JOSPH. Costa Rica Boy Scout Enthusiastic for the Cause To the Editor of The Negro World: I am a young boy of Costa Rica and also a Boy Scout of the U. N. I. A.

I am going to fight until Africa is redeemed and I see the Negro ships sailing around the world and the Red, Black and Green floating on the hill tope of Africa.

Enclosed you will please find clipping from the Fort Wayne News, showing the downfall of one of the greatest enemies of the U. N. I. A. in the State of Indiana, who has been forced out of his pulpit by his dissatisfied members. This man, Rev. Graham Jordan, has caused the U. N. I. A. a lot of trouble in this community; no trick was too disastrally to frustrate the work of this association. When the Hon. Marcus Garvey was about to visit this division last February he was the evil missionary who went to the different homes of this city, telling the people that there would certainly be a riot and to avoid trouble must stay away from that Marcus "Gabbage" meeting. He is the same apostle of Hades who told the writer when asked to attend the meetings when the Hon. Marcus Garvey was about to visit us that it would be better for Mr. Garvey if he would not come to Fort Wayne, because they had a riot here once (when the flag was destroyed), and now that the people were quiet, he would not like the same thing to happen again. This same Uncle Tom Negro, who allied himself with a crowd of hoodlums, mobbed and burned the honored flag of six million worthy souls—yeah, that flag that cheered their souls onward toward the dawn of a better day.

Lost vigor, deadened glands and nerves, and that weak, worn-out, depressed and half-alfa feeling need not be dreaded any longer since the discovery of a weaker, more capable person who feel, "prematurely old" to become "rejuvenated" and regain the "vital force of youth" often in a day's time, with Mando Formula. This discovery has taken the treatment. This famous discovery is bringing "renewed youth" and "strength" to thousands where everything else had failed. My vigor was restored and 'glands renewed' in twenty-four hours, says D. R. Peake of Kansas City, Mo. "Today I am 76, but I don't feel a day over 40. I felt I was an old, worn-out' man, but now I am enjoying a remarkable 'gland restoration' and am convinced my 'rejuvenation' is complete and permanent. My discovery of such a boon to humanity."

Led a Slave Revolt In the State of Virginia To the Editor of The Negro World I am a constant reader of your most instructive and educative paper. To read your paper is an education in itself. I must say its the best paper published, Negro or otherwise. The only paper near to it is the Jamaica Times, published in Kingston some years ago by Mr. W. R. Durle, which has improved a hundred per cent, and has a large circulation since it has such items as "juvenile corner," pupil, teacher's examination prizes for puzzles, and a weekly serial story, yet it cannot be compared to. The Negro World. It is time for the big Negro to stop knocking at the association. And they see its a spiritual movement and don't be successfully handled. God bless Hon Marcus Garvey and his work. I would be glad of you would answer under the "People's Forum" and say who was Matt Turner, as I met so many Turner Halls in the U. S. A. I am tickled that he must have been some great man.
