The Negro World

URGE OF A HIGHER AND NOBLER RACIAL AND NATIONAL SERVICE FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: Proud as we are of the fact that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is the greatest, best organized and most compact organization in the world among Negroes, yet it is our desire to reach out for the welding together of a more perfect movement. It is true that in six years we have rolled up a membership of millions of our race, and that we are established in every civilized section of the world, yet when we come to consider the great amount of work that is yet undone, we feel that a supreme appeal should be made to each and every one for better service within the organization and without. The 12,000,000 Negroes of America There are twelve million Negroes in the United States of America with the millions in the West Indies, Central and South America who should be brought together into a closer racial relationship for the general improvement and development of ourselves, and not only should we in the western world draw ourselves into a closer bond of fellowship, but we should continue to exercise every bit of energy and influence at our disposal in bringing the African North, South, East and West into a great fraternity of race, so that individually we may be able to stem the tide of human prejudice and solve the problem of our universal backwardness. The Urge to Duty The urge now is for a higher industrial and economic life. Each race group of humanity is now called upon to shoulder its own responsibility. As the patriotic Jew clings to the ideals of Jewish race and does everything to promote the interest of Judaism and all thereto connected, and as the Irish makes the supreme effort to promote the ideals of his own cause, and as the other nations and peoples of the world are now rightly adjusting themselves to their own racial needs and desires, so should the four hundred millions of us redouble our energies in every direction in forcing ourselves forward in the promotion of those loftier and higher ideals that tend generally to the well being of the human mind and the human soul. It is everybody's duty to look after himself, and as of the individual so of the race and nation. Attend to Your Own Business The Negro cannot reasonably expect that other groups who have their own racial interest to look after will ignore them for that of others. As far as the white man and the Negro is concerned in America, and even in the British and French worlds, he has done as much already as he will ever do. He has brought the Negro into a closer contact with his civilization and has encouraged him to drink in all of its good, and even of its evil, so that the Negro of today is a full-fledged partner in the civilization in which he lives. He is well acquainted with every detail of it. Nothing has been hidden away from him, but it is natural to expect that the white man is not going to do much more for the black man than has already been done in the direction of educating him to take care of himself. It is for the black man to now seize out of the civilization in which he lives the best that he desires and start out immediately doing for himself as others have had to do to insure their permanent holdings in the world. The Negro must cease relying absolutely upon others and begin more to rely upon himself. Taking His Own Stand In the religious, social, industrial and political fields the Negro should take his own stand and promote his own interest. It is only by so doing can we develop a keener and more profitable racial idealism that will be the safeguard of the race from utter defeat in the great struggle of races, peoples and nations to reach the top. Racial and National Development Look all around us, we find nothing else but the great urge of racial and national development on the part of each and every one. The keener English patriotism forces the Englishman toward the accomplishment of higher aims and objects for the good of his country and countrymen, and so America, France, Italy, Germany, Japan and China, and BLACK CROSS NAVIGATION AND TRADING COMPANY TO OPEN THE WAY OF CONTACT now comes India, Egypt and Palestine. Can we blame them? Surely not. It is the call that nature makes to self, and if we find it stronger in the Jew, the Anglo-Saxon, the Anglo-American, the Indian or the Japanese than in the Negro, we will attribute the fault not to nature's self, but to the indolence of the Negro to think and act on his own account. We must think more and act more independently. The Christian doesn't think for the Jew, neither does the Jew think for the Christian, and so the Anglo-Saxon doesn't think for the Anglo-American nor the Japanese for the Teuton, so the Negro should not allow any one to think for him, but he should soberly and intelligently think for himself. Arousing the People to Action It is in this direction that the Universal Negro Improvement Association desires to arouse the four hundred million scattered members of our race. We want to think not only in the terms of a higher racial education, but we want to think in the terms of higher nationhood. Like the Jew who desires Palestine, the black man should also reach out for a country of his own, and for six years we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have been promulgating the doctrine of "Africa for the Africans, those at home and those abroad," based upon the same racial and national urge as Europe for the Europeans and Asia for the Asiatics. Thinking for Ourselves It is true that some of us who do not think look upon this as a forlorn hope, but those of us who are acquainted with the strange character of history know that all things worth while in the higher accomplishments of mankind have always been regarded as impossible, as strange and as forlorn in the early stages when idealists and reformers launched out in the deep of thought to convince the people of the possibilities of the future. The idea of African nationality for the blacks is as possible as the realized nationalism of America today was for the colonists of one hundred and fifty years ago. What men have done in one age for the promotion of their own interest can be duplicated by men of another age, and so long as man has not lost his power to conquer and sway, then it becomes possible for man to achieve in the future what man has accomplished in the past, so that there is absolutely no reason why the four hundred million Negroes of the world should hang their heads in hopeless fatalism, but, on the contrary, there is every cause why we should lift our hopes, our aspirations and our ambitions to the highest in the accomplishment of the Negro race. So let us go forward and perfect, and even to a greater degree, the great movement of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Let each and every one of us of the millions of its membership become another active missionary out in the highways and byways and convert men to our way of thinking and to our vision of the future. Arouse them to a new life of economic conquest so that in the years to come, not far distant, probably the Negro may hold his place in the world of industry, commerce, politics, society and education like the rest of the people around us. We in a small way have started to forge this link of closer contact in sending out our ships upon the high seas. The Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, a commercial auxiliary of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is to bring into closer trade relationship the Negroes of Africa, South America and the West Indies with the Negroes of the United States. Let us develop a closer trade with each other. Let us exchange our commercial and industrial ideas. Let the Negroes of the West Indies indulge in closer business contact with the Negroes of America and let the Negro of America reach out to the business opportunities presented by the Negroes of South and Central America and Africa, and as the great white man, who has become the pattern of the world, has forged a trade link with Asia, Futone, Africa and the American of which he has been able to build up powerful nations and empires and rear a commercial structure that shall last forever, let us imitate him in this direction. As other great commercial empires flourish and rise in importance even to the high heavens, so shall commercial and industrial Africa rise out of the chaos of today and become, no doubt, one of the mysteries of the new world. Let us contribute our part to this change that is to come over Africa at home and abroad. Let the high intelligence that we have imbibed out of the sacrifice of the ages, let the price paid by our parents of 250 years in bondage of slavery be not in vain, but let us with this high intelligence that we have taken from the civilization around us rise to our true position in the world, so that in the final reckoning of all things the Negro will be able to hold up his head with all other members of the human race and justify the existence that God Almighty gave him: Rally Around Black Cross Let us rally around the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company and carry the flag of commerce around the seven seas. You can do this by putting more energy and life in the development of our commercial and industrial plans. The best way for you to show your interest in this direction is to help us to secure ships and still more ships. Three thousand of us have already secured the first ship of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. We want three thousand more of the membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and of the Negro race to help us secure in a short while our second ship. You can do your bit by loaning of your means to the corporation as others of us have done. You may loan us $20, $25, $50, $200, $500 or $1,000 for five or ten years at an interest of 5% annually so that we may be able to purchase more ships and capitalize our company to carry on its work in the interest of the race. Do your bit and do it now. Write to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, 56 West 135th Street, New York, U. S. A. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. NEW YORK CITY, November 4, 1924. P. S.—All members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are again reminded to impress upon the local officers or divisions, branches and chapters to keep their divisions financial with the Parent Body. The demand for service is greater now than before and the responsibility falls upon the shoulders of the Parent Body. We can only keep up this responsibility by the support that we get from the members and the local divisions, so that members should see that their officers make the regular monthly reports to the Parent Body to enable us to successfully carry on the work of the organization. M. G. CLESSMAN WELLER AND JUDGE CHURCHILL MAKE APPEAL FOR NEGRO VOTE ON THE GROUND OF THEIR RECORD HON. MARCUS GARVEY, IN INTRODUCTION SPEECH, RECALLS CONGRESSMAN WELLER'S SERVICE TO NEGROES IN SECURING APPROPRIATION FOR MEDICAL SCHOOL AT HOWARD UNIVERSITY Sir William Sherrill, American Leader, Points to Recently Acquired Ship as Testimony to the Faith and Confidence of the Negro in the Leadership of Marcus Garvey—In Eloquent Vein He Bids Negroes to Be Sane and Thoughtful in Choosing Their Representatives Only Men Who Are Proved Friends of the Race and Able to Secure Relief From the Common Oppression Must Be Supported LIBERTY HALL, New York. Sunday Night, November 2. Liberty Hall was packed with an enthusiastic crowd tonight—many who came because of the duty they owe to the Universal Negro Improvement Association to show by their presence and their support that they are in accord with the principles which it advocates, and many who on the eve of the forthcoming election on November 4, came to hear the last word that the leaders of the Universal Negro Political Union had to say so as to guide them in casting their vote in the right direction and supporting those candidates who in the judgment of the organization would best serve the interests of the time in all parts of the country. In addition to the executive officers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, there were on the platform Congressman Royal H. Weller, candidate for re-election, and Judge Thomas W. Churchill, candidate for election to the Supreme Court bench. Hon. Marcus Garvey presided over the meeting and after reminding the audience of their obligation toward the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the imperativeness of contributing by loans and otherwise to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Co., for the purpose of carrying out the steamship proposition initiated by the purchase of the steamship General Goeshals (now re-christened the Booker T. Washington), turned the meeting over to the candidates mentioned above, to express their views and present their claims for the suffrage of the colored voters. Hon. William Sherrill led the speaking and delivered two speeches in one—the first landing the steamship project and the gening of Hon. Marcus Garvey, which was responsible for its accomplishment, and the second, making a plea for the support of the candidates whom the Universal Negro Political Union had chosen as the men best fitted to represent the race and best serve its interests in the affairs of the nation and the State. Hon. Marcus Garvey, in a brief but pointed speech, advocated the choice of Congressman Royal H. Weller as the representative in Congress from the 21st Congressional District as against the candidacy of Dr. Charles H. Roberts, the Republican candidate, and also pleaded for the election of Judge Thomas W. Churchill to the Supreme Court bench. Both Congressman Weller and Judge Churchill delivered speeches which were well received and made a wonderful impression upon the audience. In these gentlemen the followers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association feel they have men who have the interests of the Negro race at heart and who will, if elected, use their office to promote the interests of the organization and of the race generally. HON. WILLIAM SHERRILL SPEAKS Hon. William Sherrill was the first speaker and said: I want to make two speeches. I want to make a Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company speech and also have a desire to make a political speech. I am going to make a cross between the two and let you call it what you will. Accompanying me is S. R. Parker Washington Acquiring the 8. 8. Booker Washington Let me say-repeating some of the things that I said this afternoon at the ship, for the benefit of many of those who were not able to get there—that the task the Universal Negro Improvement Association has just accomplished in acquiring the steamship Booker Washington is one of which every Negro, whether he be a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association or not, should be proved. The acquisition of that beautiful ship stands there at Pier 65 in tought as a monument of achievement—as a symbol of co-operation to Negro symbol and worth stood. It stands there tonight marking another milestone in the history of the race. It stands there tonight a grand, more historic of the struggle between the legislative 寸 ness, the determination and doggedness of our great and fearless leader Marcus Garvey. (Applause.) Only a few weeks ago this leader, whose mind dashes ahead of the average mind and feels the pulse that shapes the destiny of this race, decided that the time had again arrived for the Negro to make his second venture into the steamship business, and, over the advice of some who thought themselves giving friendly advice, with that same independence of mind, with the same perseverance and determination, he organised a new steamship corporation and set about to purchase this first ship. When Mr. Garvey started a few weeks ago to make this venture, there were friends of his who told him he couldn't do it; he wouldn't be able to raise enough money at this time to buy, a ship for the Universal Negro Improvement Association or, rather, for the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. But Garvey, being made up of the staff that all leaders of men have been made of, having thoroughly laid his plans and mapped out his program and, being fully cognizant of what was necessary to put this company over, went right on and in the shape of a few dunes we have now acquired and almost completely paid for the first ship of the Right Group Navigation and Trading Company. many to the desperate and perseverance of Marvous Gervor. But it stands there as mute testimony to your faith and confidence in his leadership. Had it not been for those of you who with your dollars have made possible the purchasing of this ship, we would not have the ship at Pier 65 tonight. To those of you who have not made yourselves a part of this new venture, I want you to see to it. While we are making the final payment and preparing for operation that the purchasing of the first ship does not name without your having a hand in it. The steamship Booker Washington is the ship that will blaze the way for the many other ships that will be owned by the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. Ships may come and ships may go, but no ship will take the place on the pages of history that the steamship Booker Washington is destined to occupy, and those of you who want to hand down to posterity your names as pioneers of Negro freedom and independence should take advantage of this opportunity before the steamship Booker Washington is fully paid for by making your learn now, so that when the scroll containing the names of Negro pioneers is placed in the archives you can feel and confident that children unborn will read your name and your contribution and sing praises of the days that you lived here on earth. So much for the ship. Re The November Election Now I start on my second speech. Here tonight, just on the eve of the great election to take place on November 4, everybody's mind is turned toward politics. Mr. Brisbane, of the New York American, said Saturday that the right thing said by any candidate just at this particular time would mean a million additional votes. I am not going to attempt the momentous task of trying to say the right thing just a time; but, realizing that I am talking to men and women of my race, many of whom have become frenzied over the coming election. I want to call to your mind a few of the things we have been saying all week, in order that you may have them in mind when you go to the polls November 4. Living, as you are, under a democratic government, you are going to be given the opportunity of expressing yourselves as to the candidates you desire to have as representatives of your interests in the government of that country. Democracies believe that those who are governed should have control of affairs that concern them in State and in government. You will vote on November 4 for those individuals or for those measures you feel are for your best interests as citizens of this country. Over the chance to vote everybody is excited. But let me stop long enough to ask this question: What does the election mean to you as Norwegian? What does the election mean to us as black folks, by virtue of our color, find ourselves in a very peculiar condition in America? To some of us the election simply means a chance to carry the banner and get $5. To some of us the election simply means a chance to make a speech and collect $10 or $25 for it. To some of us the election simply means perhaps a chance to get some political job; and to others it means to get a good drink for our vote. That is individually. But what does the election mean to us as a race? What the Election Means If the coming election means anything to the black man as a race, it means a chance and an opportunity to place in the positions of power men and women who will be of service to the cause of the black man here in America. (Applause.) Some broad-minded fellow might say whatever interests American citizens interests us. That is all right to talk; but when we realize that at least 75 per cent of this race to which we belong is tonight Jim Crowed, segregated and disfranchised in certain parts of this country; when we realise that there is pending now in the courts of this country, such as in Oklahoma and New Orleans, at- TIS TRUE!

And if there is anything we want in Courts, in the State Legislature, in the Governor's chair, and in the White Man, it is man and woman who will stand up fearlessly and boldly against certain damnable conditions the black man has been compelled to suffer for the last sixty-odd years since he has been supposed to be free. (Appease.) If the election means anything to us on November 4, it means the attempt to try to put in office some more Abraham Lincoln and John Brown. (Appease.) Opportunity to Make Friends It matters little to us whether the private concerns continue to run the railroads or whether the government takes over the railroads, whatever way it goes the same job we will before the change was made we will have after. To the Negro who is fighting in this country for a chance to enjoy not anything more than any other citizen but simply for a chance and opportunity to enjoy what the Constitution is supposed to guarantee, the election on November 4th should bring serious and same thought and consideration: Voting for the Right Men Now, we are going to vote for man to represent us. The Negro occupying the position I have just in a brief way pictured, cannot afford at this stage of his development to antagonize those who perhaps would be his friends. What do I mean by that? I mean this: That at this time when there is a cry over the country of white supremacy; at this time when prejudice seems to be ruling from the capital city of the nation to "Toogoooo," Georgia, the black man cannot afford to flash—as Mr. Garvey puts it—a red flag in the face of the bull and perhaps lose the opportunity of making those friends who would be of most use to the black man in getting through and backing up certain measures which would bring progress and advancement to the race. We want to escape the Jim Crow law; we want the ballot placed in the hands of the black man in Mississippi; we want laws that will prevent men from "intimidating the Negro and frightening him away from places where he has got the constitutional right to vote; we want the lyncher's rope taken from ground his neck; we want such laws passed that will make it expensive to lynch a black man. To get those things through we want men who can do it. To get any measure through the legislature; to get any law on the statute books it takes in the House of Congress or in the Senate or in the halls of the legislature, a man who is able to bring around him the friends who will support certain increases; it takes a man who is able to get friends who will stand behind such legislation. Why U. N. J. A. Supports Weller Why do we support at this time? In Harlem we have got one group of Negroes who are saying "let us send a Negro to Congress." As far as sending a Negro to Congress, that is exactly what we want. The Universal Negro Improvement Association looks forward to the time when black folks will represent black folks. (Applause). But the Universal Negro Improvement Association, an organisation that is trying to lead the race is the fulfillment of its destiny, having thought seriously over the present campaign, knows what it is talking about and is absolutely confident that now is not the time to antagonize our friends by placing in Congress a black man. (Applause). Now is the time that we need men in Congress who can fight effectively for us and who will not prejudice our people by simply stumping up on the floor. We need also in Congress who can speak the other fellow in Congress and for that refrain the Universal Negro Improvement Association with its 20,000 members here in the City of New York to send us solidarity behind Congress. Women You Like to Look at Royal H. Wether and we are going to get big sign (Applaise). And those of you who have followed the association know that such advice would not come from this platform if we did not think it was for the good and welfare of the race. We have studied keenly the man who runs and fights office in this present election; we have studied their records and we have watched them; we know where they stand, and when we bring them before you we bring them as friends of the race. And let me say to you, these of you who think soberly and amply, go to the polls November 4, and in marring your ballot do not forget to put, the X directly behind the name of Congressman Royal H. Weller. I am sure that the Negro who thinks anlyst of the welfare of his race will do more other at this time than that which means most for his race and that he will also encourage his friends to place in Congress a man who has proven himself a friend to us and we are is gledged to go his length to see to it that everything in the interests of the eNegro race is done. We are for, Congressman Royal H. Weller. (Applause.) Congressman Waller Introduced Hon. Marcus Garvey in introducing Congressman Royal H. Weller drew attention to the splendid work which Mr. Weller had performed in the last season of Congress in securing an additional appropriation for the Medical School at Howard University. Howard University, Mr. Garvey explained, is one of the great schools of this country which has been placed at the disposal of the Negro race by the government for the purpose of helping to train the Negro technically and scientifically and fit him for his place not only in the nation but in the world. Howard University was established for no other purpose than to fit the Negro for his place in the world, not only to fit him to remain where he can only rise to the position of pulling an elevator rope, but to fit him for his particular place in the world wheresoever that place is, and at this time when backward calls for technical, scientific and other help from his own race, what better service could Howard perform than preparing such men to take their races in the world. Africa that has been suffering for thousands of years needs men of scientific and technical training; and it way with that in view, in view that the white people established in this country institutions like Howard University, like Atlanta University and subalized institutions like Tukegee to fit the Negro for a higher course and calling, and when the time came that Howard was in need of greater medical facilities for training its students—when they found they had not equipment necessary to train the hundreds and thousands of men who were going there to prepare themselves medically for service in, this country, in the West Indies, Central America and in Africa among their own people, they appealed to Congress for an appropriation, and when there were others in Congress who were not willing or who were not kindly disposed to see the Negro helped in that direction, we had a man there from this neighborhood who was instrumental in forcing through that appropriation so that the Negro could be helped to help himself. "We want man in Congress," said Mr. Garver, "who can reader such useful service to the race, because we are not in a position to help ourselves. If we had to depend upon ourselves for that $200,000, which has been appropriated to Howard we would be talking and bargaining for it for the next ten years; but because we had friends who were willing to support us we were able to obtain that money from the United States Treasury so that it could be used for the purpose of technically developing the mind of the Negro to move himself and his race. Such a man who gave himself over to the support of such a measure is worth of the consideration of the Negroes of this district whom he represents, and therefore it gives me great pleasure to introduce to you Hon. Royal H. Weller, whom we feel sure we are going to return to Congress as representative of this district. (Applause.) MR. WELLER & PEAKS Hon. Royal H. Welter mid: After listening to the complimentary and generous remarks of Mr. Sherrill and of your distinguished trader, I felt the prickles going up and down my back. I am a modest man. I do not like to talk about myself, but I find during the past three weeks I have talked a lot about myself and I have got to do it because, although I have received the Demerative nomination for Congress—to be re-elected I trust,—I find that there is a campaign on foot directed against me in this district that is an insidious campaign or what we might call a whispering campaign. They are trying among some of you folks here in Harlem to stir up religious and racial feeling which all of us want to see buried, and buried eternally. It is not fair, because I come to you as a boy who was born in Harlem within a mile of where I stand now. I have lived all my life here in this neighborhood, and, having worked and lived here with my family, I want to live here as long as the Lord will let me; but I will be frank with you—I would like to go back to Congress. (A voice: "You are going back.") All right, fine. For Full Residential Liberty Now, what has happened? The man who is running against me has never taken the platform in public debate where I have been. I stand before you in the work that I have done in Congre- sion, some of which work has been stated by your distinguished leader. I am for such religious liberty, and full racial liberty, and our party has stood for that eternally. No man shall be questioned about his religious belief, as it is agreed to us and guaranteed by the Constitution, it comes from the author at our birth and shall not be questioned. Continuing, Mr. Weller said: It is the democracy that really means something. You people have gotten to know me and to know of my work in Washington. You people know what the Democratic party has done for the colored people of Haitam. You know of the men who have been rewarded by the Democratic party, and the Republican party holds forth no such opportunity to you. We come to you based upon our record and upon our experience. We say to you we have played fair with you. You elected me two years ago to represent you; your leader has said that my work has been satisfactory, therefore why not send me back? I ask you to cast your votes not only for me, but for all the candidates of the Democratic party—the party that believes in equal opportunity and the safeguarding of the rights of all peoples and all classes. Mr. Weller urged his hearers to vote the Democratic ticket from top to bottom, saying that all the candidates on the ticket were men of standing worth and character, and if elected would represent the interests of all the people. The Democratic party, he said, is the hope and the salvation of the colored people of this country and if placed in power was pledged to keep all its promises. HON. THOMAS CHURCHILL INTRODUCED Mr. Eugene Corbie then introduced Hon. Thomas Churchill, a candidate for justice of the Supreme Court. Mr. Corbie cullored the work of Judge Churchill as head of the College of the City of New York, an institution where he said Negro students were given equal opportunities with other students. Judge Churchill, he said, has been responsible for the liberal attitude of City College. He was also 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' "Glands Awakened in One Day" Is the Amazing Statement of a Seventy-six-Year-Old Veteran.

Now it is possible for those who feel "prematurely old" the "vital force of youth," often in a day's time, with Mando Formula, is the amazing statement of one who has taken the treatment.

Do not write today and give this "remarkable formula" a trial. Mr. T. David, a valued agent of The Negro World residing in London, England, sends us the following article from the London Daily Herald, contributed by Mr. Harry Snell who, as a labor member, went on the Empire's Parliaments' Delegation. to South Africa; and has been studying that dominion's problems at first hand: Throughout the territories of South Africa there exists in the mind of the white man a haunting and depressing fear. It appears to color all his conversation and to influence all his judgments. In places like Natal, Zululand, Basutoland, and the Transkalan territories, it has become almost an obsession. What is it that is so troubling the white man's soul? It is the sufficiently ominous fact that whereas the white man comes to Africa in very small numbers, and the natural increase of those already there is low, the millions of black and colored men by whom they are surrounded are breeding at an enormous rate, and that the civilization which the Dutch and British peoples have built up through centuries of blood and sacrifice is being overwhelmed, and may in due time be extinguished. I have listened to many schemes, such as restriction of the native to definite areas, the imposition of heavier but taxes, etc., the effect of which, it is hoped, would be to abolish plurality in wives. There are other proposals which, while looking well on paper, might not produce the results desired. The native problem in South Africa is indeed difficult, but I do not regard it as insoluble. In Canada, in Australia, and to some extent in New Zealand, the native races have died or become negligible in quantity, as the civilization of the white man has touched them. Nothing of the kind has occurred in regard to the Negro. He has stood up to "civilization" and has increased abundantly. The difficulty is that it agrees with him rather too well. He is not exterminated by tribal wars, or decimated by disease, or famine, and on many ways his conditions have been bettered. Like every other creature on the earth he tends to increase up, to the limit of the sustenance available, and as he does not appear to take the remotest interest in the subject of birth control, the pressure of his kind upon the subsistence available at any given time is likely to be kept up. What them is the position? The statesmen of South Africa do not appear to have any definite plan for dealing with the problem. 'It is on their minds and hearts, but they have no accepted plan of escape. An Englishman cannot presume to offer advice upon so difficult and delicate a matter. He can only observe and comment on the facts as he sees them. The prevalent fear in South Africa is that the black man is gradually but surely driving the white man out of industry except in so far as he is a trader who caters for the native.' The Gland That Causes Men to Get Up at Night The gland that causes getting up at night is known as the prostate and as a notorious trouble maker. It is estimated that 85 out of every 100 men past 40, and many under that age, have prostate disease, which, if unchecked, often leads to a serious operation. The prostate surrounds the neck of the bladder like a washer. Naturally, when the bladder becomes inflamed by poisons which the kidneys filter out of the blood, the irritation spreads to the prostate. As the gland swells, it closes the neck of the bladder, making urination difficult and painful and causing pain in the back, head and legs. An easy way to treat these annoying and dangerous conditions is to take one or two renex pills after each meal. The renex formula has been victorious in thousands of such cases. One authority says it also has a valuable tonic effect and tends to renew vigor.

The individual employee is not to be painted for conforming to the single diligent policy of those active labour which has been adopted, for his lack in the pride of arithmetical competence. But he cannot have his duties granted for more white citizens in South Africa if he makes it impossible for the white man to live and thrive. There are two ways in which this adapt of a very difficult problem could be faced. The employees of South Africa could, if they wished, reserve for white men those skilled and semi- skilled occupations upon which white men are engaged in other lands. This is not a policy for which a Socialist could give any support. He could never adopt, a principle which would restrict to low or menial tasks the members of a particular race. Each individual of every race is entitled to the freedom which will enable him to perform the highest work of which he is capable. There remains, then, as an immediately applicable policy our universal labor principle that a job should be paid for at a standard rate no matter by whom it may be performed. If the capitalist wishes to employ black labor he should be free to do so, but if the black man does a white man's job he should receive a white man's pay.

LET'S PUT IT OVER SOMETHING NEW UNDER THE SUN THERE are so many things new under the sun now which were not dreamed of as possible by those of old times that we sometimes do not realize that it is so or place any special significance upon them. So many inventions of the most marvelous character have become commonplace, so many new ideas, radical from all viewpoints, have overcome old ideas we deemed unassailable, that it takes something very unusual to surprise us or be regarded as new. The political campaign which has just come to an end furnished several new things under the sun which the oldest inhabitant never expected to live to see. It brought forth the Democratic party endorsing as a national principle opposition to invisible government and discrimination against citizens because of their race, religion or nativity with a candidate with the courage of his convictions, who appealed to Negro voters on a platform of the broadest liberality, and who did so on one occasion in the closing days of the campaign by personally appearing and speaking to thousands of Negroes assembled in Liberty Hall. We say it was something entirely new in American politics. And it was not an isolated instance of a leading Democrat so doing. All through the campaign, in New York and the Eastern, Middle and Western States, Democratic candidates for office appeared before Negro audiences and appealed to Negro voters for their support. What the Southern Bourbon oligarchists think of that is an interesting phase of the matter. We have it that they do not like it at all and that it may go far towards breaking the Solid South, which, we firmly believe, would be the best thing that could happen in the politics of the nation—as far-reaching as the splitting of the Negro vote, which was accomplished on a large scale for the first time in the elections on Tuesday of this week. But the something new under the sun we started out to write about happened in the Sunday night meeting of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, when a large number of influential Democratic candidates, including Lieutenant-Governor Lunn, made an appeal to the members of the Universal Negro Political Union for support. It will be recalled that President-General Garvey advised members of the Union to support Coolidge and Dawes for President and Vice-President and Governor Alfred E. Smith and the Democratic ticket in New York State. When Governor Lunn asked the 6,000 people present if they were going to vote for Governor Smith and the other Democratic candidates they thundered "Yes." Then he asked them if they were going to vote for Davis and Bryan for President and Vice-President and one man answered "No!" All the others were silent. The speaker was terribly upset, but he may not have known that the people he was addressing had been advised not to vote for Davis and Bryan. The editor of The Negro World considered the incident as illustrating something new under the sun in race mass action which had never occurred before. It envisaged the loyalty and devotion of the membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to their leader, President-General Marcus Garvey. FALL OF THE LABOR GOVERNMENT IN ENGLAND Tory party, with Stanley Baldwin as the outstanding figure, was not unexpected, but will be of vital interest to the British people and their subjects in all quarters of the globe. The fall of the Labor party was inevitable, as it only existed by a coalition with the Liberal party, and coalitions are always makeshifts that cannot be relied upon for long. The marvel is that the Labor party was so strong as to make a coalition which would enable it to have its first taste of power. The success of Labor was a revelation, and there were many who imagined that the ends of the earth were reached when a Labor Prime Minister was able to take over the government, but nothing radically startling came out of it, except a precedent, as important and far reaching as when Benjamin Disraeli, the great Jew, was called to the premiership. It is the sort of revolutionary precedent that stands and refuses to be moved. We shall have another Labor Government in England and it will have a freer hand than the coalition with the Liberals permitted to Ramsay Macdonald. Some of the things that the Tory Government will stand for, with Stanley Baldwin as premier, are: Rejection of the Anglo-Russian treaty negotiated by the Labor Government; support and strengthening of the League of Nations as a cardinal principle of British foreign policy; imperial preference, a system of preferential duties within the empire to boost imperial trade. The Dominions are opposed to the principle of selling their raw material and buying their manufactured products in England, and are developing manufacturing industries of their own, but the colonies are helpless and will continue to suffer in consequence of the Tory system. The Negro subjects of Great Britain in the West Indies and Africa and the brown people of the East Indies, will have to continue the struggle for more determination in their own affairs and for less ONE of the most remarkable developments of modern life is the rapid growth of the newspaper. Within the memory of some of us the newspaper in its daily, Sunday and weekly issues, was but a small sheet. It had its influence, but that was wonderfully restricted. Its news was of the scantiest and its editorial opinion seldom discursive, but both were wonderfully free from vulgarisms, scandals and reports of crime. It was a clean newspaper, for the most part, which went into the home as a friend and teacher of a sound patriotism and a sound morality. The typesetting machine and improvements in printing presses have changed the size and morality of the newspaper. It is now made up of more columns than can generally be read as to all of its parts by the average person in the week days or on Sundays, and the slums of the earth are searched for news matter which is mostly of interest to the people of a small locality and not fit to be read generally in the home. Indeed, the wide publicity given to crime and scandal and court proceedings of such, has a tendency to impair the morality of the person or of the nation. The news and opinion worth while are often crowded out in order to give the sensational and flashy which appeals to the morbid and helps to make morbid those not so inclined. The Negro World has received the following letter from Mr. Darnly Evans of New York City, which we are sure will be read with interest, as touching upon this vital question of the newspapers and the home: Sir:—I am a reader of your interesting weekly paper and noted that you recently made a plea in one of your editorials for clean literature in the Negro papers. I am in perfect agreement with your idea, as it is indeed sickening to see all Negro newspapers, except yours, magnifying the crimes committed by members of their own race, which carry a detrimental effect to the rising generations. I personally do not read them, but, when passing the newsstands can't help noticing the senseless way these Negro editors demoralize the race. The white folks in some of their papers do the same, but to every crime recorded there are also printed to their credit many achievements such as Negroes never have. All they apparently can show is their criminal record. Keep up the agitation for "CLEAN LITERATURE" until these Negro grafters come to their senses, and magnify the achievements and virtuous deeds of our men and women and thus inspire the rising generation to higher things, rather than teach them the path of crime and violence, which leads to the electric chair, and then to hell. The editor of The Negro World has always maintained that nothing should be published in a newspaper that a person would not want seen or read in his home. The Negro World is edited with that end in view. We think all newspapers should be. We appreciate the fact that Mr. Evans has written us about the matter. We dare say thousands of others quite agree with us in this matter. The newspaper should stand for all that is highest and best in the hope and aspiration and achievement of the people, and not the lowest and worst in social, civil and economic morals. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS No physical warfare between the races will do the world good. Neither can cowardly surrender in mental combat help any. American Negroes will win their battle by moral victories and a better expression of their lives as citizens in those things that make a self-governing and self-helping citizenship the most desirable assets of our nation.-Gary Sun. Keep your weather eye open to opportunity now calling on these Western shores and as the Japanese retire from the field of production let the colored citizen enter therein to all the enamels which lefall the producer from the soil of the earth. Opportunity is yearning for you to enter and it is clearly up to you to accept the invitation. For many years the Japanese people have regulated the market of produce and became one of the integral units of progress. The opportunity is now yours to do likewise.-California Eagle. A prominent preacher has been found who believes that the modern girl is no worse than her mother of another generation and that jazz and bobbed hair and all the rest of it has not made her any the worse for wear. Perhaps. It all depends on the viewpoint. Meanwhile yolling folks are still young folks and need guardians to keep them in the middle of the road.—Norfolk Journal and Guide. We have our troubles and so have other folks.—John Mitchell, Jr., in the Richmond Planet. It is true that the African abroad will have to unlearn a good deal before he can be of practical help to the African at home in racial development, but all the same there can be no question about it that the two need each other very badly, and that, in the natural order of things, nothing can prevent them coming together eventually.—Gold Coast (West Africa) Leader. The complicity of oddness is undesirable.—Star of Zion. Sure. Who said it won? Parents whose boys are among our little news dealers will find that experience will develop them. Contact with other men is broadening. It is the making of a man to have a boy make good. A quarter of a dollar earned himself builds strength of character, while another quarter given by a doting relative may help change a capable boy into a do-nothing dependent.—Kansas City Call. Colored people who have valuable property holdings in the south should think wisely and soberly before they sell them at a great sacrifice. The situation here may not be ideal, but there is a chance to improve perplexing conditions, if remedies are sought in an intelligent, sane and sensible manner.—Nasville Clarion. Men with moral courage still survive, willing to espouse a just cause.—Omaha Mopitor. Let the little boy dream. As his imagination stirs, his ambition is pursued. But a dream that causes him to become a successful farmer is more likely to come true than a dream about becoming a great man in the great city...shreveport sun. The goods of the white race flood the markets of the world. Ships crowd every sea. Clerks, bankers, engineers and what not, push and help each other. Strides in learning, invention, wealth and influence are a daily experience with the American white man—with the race throughout the world. Truly the American Negro should see in the white race an example of human possibilities unsurpassed in the universe. Why in the name of God does he not make more use of his brain power in production? His eternal thought is about getting the white man to do something for him that the Negro ought to do for himself and prove his boasted worthiness of racial respect. There is the answer—his subject need of mental self-reliance. Gary Sun. HEALTH TOPICS By D.I.: B. S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association Food for the Pneumonia Case (Continued) In order to give a pneumonia patient or any patient suffering from an acute infectious disease, twenty-five per cent more to eat than he would eat if he were well, a knowledge of food "values" must be acquired. Most of my readers who have followed the articles during the year have a general knowledge of the relative importance of certain foods, that is, how much heat and energy will be supplied by certain foods. For instance, they know that a quart of milk with its cream will give about 620 calories. They also know that certain foods have different quantities of fat or protein which is necessary to build tissue, etc. Let us say that the patient will require 3,000 calories in twenty-four hours. Being a patient, he will not feel like eating much at a time, and he will not be very hungry at any time. How shall we provide this amount of food and give him enough protein to repair the damage the germs are doing in the lungs and the fever is doing throughout the entire body? (Let me say here that only so much protein can be handled by the body in a day, and if an excess of the heat or protein foods is given, the kidneys, etc. they must work harder than they should. In infectious diseases, the kidneys are already over-burdened by the poisons, so we must not add to their work by giving any more than the useful amount of this type of food. If we supply enough calories by giving almost five quarts of milk, we will be giving too much protein. Therefore, we cannot give milk only to these cases.) Cream, sugar, cereal, egg, custards; soups with strained vegetables and fruit juice drinks can safely be given by the doctor and the nurse in proper amounts. Water, either plain or in the shape of broth (which has no food value), or as lemonade, or in some other fruit juice form, should be given every hour. I like the open spaces of the rural districts. I like what is called country life. I find in such a life the conditions and the activities that appeal to me. I do not feel as if I am elbowed at every point I move by a multitude of people I do not know and for whom I have only a sentimental interest. I do not care for large gatherings of people. I seem to be out of touch with them. Perhaps it is because I know that they are seeking after something they will not find and are at bottom selfish and cruel and vacillating ready to crucify today him they glorified yesterday. It depends. Anyhow, average human nature is very fickle, very selfish, very savage, when things go wrong with it and its passions are aroused. A very small partition divides the impulses of a vengeful mob from the enthusiasm and acclamation of an applauding audience. Have you ever considered that? We take Jesus as a supreme example in most things. When he could address the multitude without danger to it, when he could feed it as well as instruct it and sometimes surprise it with miracles that dazzled and confused and parables they could not understand, they were His devoted servants, his to command. And Jesus loved the wide open spaces of Palestine. He felt cramped and narrowed in the village, and the city. But, when the law laid its hands upon Jesus, when suspicion pointed the finger at Him and wagged the tongue, even Peter, the rock on which he built his church, denied Him, and when the hour of crucifixion came He was quite deserted, save for a few women. The multitude that had been fed and instructed faded away. It is much that way with the average when misfortune comes knocking at the door of the benefactor, the teacher—they just sidestep the trouble and have a mind only for their own safety. You say it is human. Very well. I don't like it. I don't find it in the broad country spaces, where you are alone, for the most part, and live and labor alone, except for the few whose lives are wrapped in yours. And they are always few, mostly members of the family. We have neighbors, yes; but they are separate and apart and have interests and families and troubles of their own, with only a few joys. In the open country life I appear to absorb everything worth while. In the big city, it is different. I feel absorbed by everything, and neutralized. And the absence of forestation and vegetation and bird and animal life in the big city pains me, gets on my nerves. All in all, the farmer's life is the most independent and carefree and happy, if he can be satisfied with the farmer's life. And those who cannot do so and go to the big cities are never contented. They miss something and they never find it in the city. Solitude is a splendid thing, if you like it. If you don't, it is much like prison walls that shut you in and deny you even an unobstructed view of yonder blue skies and blazing sun. Lecture on Haiti Sunday the 26th, at the Colored Branch of the Y. W. C. A., Miss Theodora Holly attended vespers and spoke on Hayti. Miss Holly in a delightfully interesting manner discussed the four periods of Haytian history and closed the lecture with the recitation of a French Ode to the Flag. The lecture was illustrated with engravings, a map and a Haytian flag of velvet fringed with gold. Miss Marguerite Kennely of Washington, D. C., contributed some choice piano selections to the o casion. or every two hours. This should be done whether or not the patient asks for it or desires it. Two or three or even more quartz of fluid should be given. Even four quartz is not too much. You can see that to sustain the patient's strength and overcome the effects of the infection, the question of food is the one which will require the greatest thoughtful care. A trained nurse will know how to plan this food supply, but one who is untrained must consult a physician and have him prepare the menu, or ask in doing so. Children require food proportionately to the adult, and the physician should direct the planning of a child's dietary in sickness. Discrimination in New York Theatres From The Taliller It has been apparent to The Tattler for some time that there was a strong concerted movement in the Harlem district, at least of New York City, to draw the color line on patrons of the theatres more tightly. Tickets are often refused for certain sections of the house, and selling seats to colored people in such a way that they will all be segregated, congregated by themselves, is a very common thing in some of the theatres, as we have observed. When reservations are secured the holders are often turned down and the seatings withhold when it is discovered that the patrons are colored persons. A big rumpus is sometimes caused by this rank business, but it seldom gets into the hands of the police, and the aggrieved parties are so humiliated that they do not care to institute a suit at law. They swallow their pride and allow their civil rights to be trampled upon because they do not care for the unpleasant notoriously court action entails. We have ample laws in New York State to protect us in our civil rights, but we do not always resort to them. We prefer to allow some other one to go ahead and fight injustice and the other one does the same thing; with the result that theatre managers and managers of other sorts of public places of accommodation and amusement feel certain that they can draw the color line on us and get away with it. as for some reason we seldom fight it. This conviction gives them encouragement to go ahead with their dirty business. Some of the trouble is caused by the rude conduct of some of our group, who do not appear to know how to behave themselves in public places. They are offensive to any sort of person. We have time and again been put out of countenance by this sort. They dress well; they seem to have plenty of money; but they have no behavior that entitles them to include into the association of decent people in a theatre or anywhere else. When they manage to squeeze in they make it uncomfortable for everybody about them, shaming their own and disgusting the other people victimized by them. White persons of the same shoddy sort do not usually force themselves where they do not belong, and when they do they are generally made to behave themselves. Be sure you are right, and when discriminated against make the proper protest and appeal to the courts for justice. That is the only way to meet and overcome any sort of unlawful discrimination. Vicious Tendencies Among Negro Young People Is Increasing From the Washington Tribune The wantain murdering of a sixteen year old boy of the Armstrong High School Thursday, by another boy of 15 years, brings forcibly to our attention the vicious tendencies that seem to dominate the young men of the race. Last fall a high school boy practically forced a man to kill him on U Street, northwest, because of his unrestrained criminal tendencies. The public show houses of the city are constantly confronted with the problem of what to do to curb the criminal or rowdy tendencies of boys of twelve to twenty. The managers of two or three of the places have had to use, physical resistance against boys bant on the breaking up of the performances for no other purpose than to appear tough. Naturally the responsibility reverts to the parents. There is too little restraint exercised by the parents of this city upon their own children. How lamentable to hear a parent say: "I just can't do anything with my boy," and he is only ten or eleven years old. That same boy at sixteen becomes a criminal for the lack of proper instruction and restraint in the earlier days. It is not uncommon to see children, some of tender years, on the streets of Washington after nine and ten, and sometimes eleven o'clock at night. Those children early form the habit of night curiosity and the result is they soon form civil associations and are led off into crime, when a little restraint at the proper time would have convicted the evil tendencies and saved many sleepy nights and sorrowing hopes for the parents. Reports of the murder at Armpringam on Thursday, it was one of the unpleasant affairs, so far Osman Digna Released After Twenty-two Years Kipling called him Fuzzy-Wuzzy. That was because he had a 'ayrick 'ead of 'air, the pore benighted heathen but the first-class fightin' man who fought Kitchner to a standstill in the desert. Fuzzy-Wuzzy he has been for all the schoolboys with a piece to speak, the summer-boarders playing mandolins, the after-dinner orators who used him for an encore to the death of Gunda Din. But his name was Oman Dinars. For twenty-two years Oman Digna has been a prisoner in solitary confinement at Wadi-Halfa, no loot to the world that even the British Foreign Office had forgotten him. Schoolboys have gone on speaking Fuzzy-Wuzzy. But because his own camp followers betrayed him almost a quarter of a century ago, and delivered him into the hands of the British Army, Fuzzy-Wuzzy himself has been paying the penalty of opposing Empire. Now he is released, for no apparent reason save that it occurs to some one in London to think of him, and with nearly a hundred years on his shoulders starts a pilgrimage to Mecca. Africa has grown up while he was waiting. The Lower Nile is Egypt, and Egypt has a Premier. The Upper Nile, where Fuzzy-Wuzzy broke a British square, is old enough to talk of self-determination. All over Kipeling's Africa and Asia brown-skinned men, with the best training Western schools can give them, wrestle with problems of sanitation, education, politics. Never mind. When the mandolons 'begin to twang on summer porches they are Fuzzy-Wuzzy still. West 135th Street Y. M. C. A. Briefs The Boys' Department and Y. M.

DAVIS SAYS THE POLITICAL FUTURE OF THE COLORED MAN IN AMERICA LIES IN AN EXHIBITION OF POLITICAL INDEPENDENCE SAYS THE NEGRO DID SHARE IN BUILDING UP OF COUNTRY AND IS ENTITLED TO EQUAL OPPORTUNITY Equality of Right Before the Law Must Be the Negro's Demand That winning personality we all admire is the result of care and cleanliness, as well as good health and happiness. WRIGLEY'S makes for clean, sound teeth, for agreeable breath, for better appetite and digestion. The cleansing action of WRIGLEY'S upon the teeth, tongue, throat (and breath)—its antiseptic effect—its digestive aid—its wholesome refreshment—these are all positive benefits that doctors and dentists freely affirm. WRIGLEYS after every man JUICY FOOT Different Flavors Some Quality Mr. Davis spoke as follows: Ladies and Gentlemen—I have some hesitation in rising after the very kindly introduction that Commissioner Morton has given me, for he has made for me a far better speech in my own behalf than I think I could dare to make for myself. But to everything he has predicted and all that he has been willing to promise on behalf or myself I cheerfully subscribe my name. (Applause.) I am a Democrat. (Applause.) And I think I know what democracy means. And the underlying principle of democracy, the great principle that breathes through the Democratic party and gives it life is the principle of equal and exact rights for all men and special privilege to none. (Applause.) And there is no limitation in that motto of race or creed or color. (Applause.) And I for one will never write such a limitation there. (Applause.) The commissioner has been good enough to allude to some slight services I was permitted to render when I served the Government of the United States as its solicitor-general. In the opening of this campaign, discussing what my program was to be, I announced to one of my friends that I proposed to leave no uncertainty as to my determination to enforce the Constitution of the United States and all the laws made in pursuance of it. And he said, "How can you say that in the face of the three wartime amendments, the 13th amendment that abolished slavery, the 14th that forbade the States to deprive any man, white or black, of life, liberty or property without due process of law, and the 15th amendment that made it impossible to deny the suffrage to any man an account of race or color, or previous condition of servitude." A: I answered him that no man could embarrass me by that question for I had individually and officially endorsed every one of them. (Ap- plause.) It was the 12th Amendment that forbids involuntary servitude that I invoked when I struck down the Alabama Contracting Labor Law, which was but another name for peonage. (Applause). And the 14th Amendment is now become so much a part of the life of the American people that we even forget the purpose for which it was adopted. Primarily framed to defend the rights of the new freedmen of the South and prevent the chain of slavery being re-imposed upon them under any disguise or pretence. it has now become the great charter of liberty for all the citizens in this country of whatever race or creed or color. (Applause). And the 15th Amendment, which strikes down discrimination in suffrage on the ground of racial origin, that amendment it was that stood in the path of the Grandfather Clause in the Oklahoma Constitution and compelled that great son of the South, one of the greatest leaders who ever adorned the Supreme Court of this or any other country, the great Chief Justice White himself, an ex-Confederate soldier, to declare the Constitution of the State of Oklahoma null and void. (Applause). Protecting the Rights of Minorities And what is the lesson, my friends, for this gathering tonight from those occurrences? Something more than mere personal compliment to myself. The great lesson those cases teach to you and to me and to other citizens in this land is the way in which the Constitution of the United States protects the rights, not of majorities alone, but protects the rights of minorities no matter how small. (Applause). So long as that great document stands, so long as the Bill of Rights that it contains remains there as our guard and protection, the humblest citizen in all this land, no matter what his price, need not fear the A great political meeting was held at Liberty Hall, New-York, on Tuesday evening, October 27, when Hon. John W. Davh, Democratic candidate for President, Governor Alfred E. Smith, candidate to succeed himself, Mayor John F. Hylan, and several of the candidates on the State ticket addressed a packed assembly. Hon. Ferdinand Q. Morton, Civil Service Commissioner, presided over the meeting, which was declared to be the most remarkable meeting of its kind ever held in the United States, in that thousands of Negroes hung breathlessly on the words of Democratic candidates and rooted for them as enthusiastically as they ever rooted for exponents of the principles of Lincoln's party. Governor Smith in particular received a tremendous ovation, and his re-election seems as certain as the Negro vote of Harlem can help to make it. The full text of the speeches delivered by Hon. J. W. Davis and Governor Smith is given in this issue. power of any man, for neither his right to vote, nor right of free speech nor his right of worship can be impaired by any mah, any organization of men or any law, no matter whence it comes. (Applause). My friends, Mr. Morton lays before me here a memorandum asking would I make some reference to my attitude in the Democratic State Convention in regard to a jim-crow car plank. You know those of us in politics or who have ever been in politics take our defeats along with our successes, and we carry our bruises and make the best of them as we can. I was in a Democratic State Convention in West Virginia, and that convention did debate a jim-crow car plank, and I was the worst defecated man that ever walked out of a convention when it was over. (A plause). I was run over, and my county was run over as if by a herd of buffalo, and I think out of something over 100 votes I was able to muster 61. That is the story of that accurrence, Commissioner Morton. (A voice: You are honest). (Mr. Davis: I tried to be). The Negro Did His Share Now, my friend, it is a great state we have in this country. It is a great state that you of your race have got in this country. Why should you not have it? You have ploughed the fields, you have raised its crops, you have built its houses, you have helped to clothe and to feed and nurse and nurture your fellow citizens of your own and of the white race. And when battle came you have helped to fight its battles and your blood equally with the blood of your white brethren has flowed in defense of the flag we love. (Applause). Why should you not feel it to be your duty, as it is the duty of any other people, to guard its institutions, to care for its future and to protect and preserve the institutions that foster you as they foster all the rest of us? Why should you not join the Democratic party in the great ambitions that it has for this country? (Applause). Political Independence I am not here tonight to advise any man as to his duty, but I do believe profoundly that the political future of the colored man in the United States lies in an exhibition of political independence. (Loud and prolonged applause). Your ancestors—and I say your ancestors because the generation that saw the disappearance of slavery has almost passed over the Great Divide—your ancestors got economic equality by shaking off chattie slavery, and it caused four years of bloody war to accomplish that great result. And you yourself will get entire political equality when you shake off anything that remotely resembles political slavery. (Applause). Whenever the colored man is ready to demonstrate—and I think the day is coming more rapidly than most of us imagine—that he is not the mere shock troops of any political party, that he is not to be thrown into the forefront of the battle and sacrificed until the reserves can be called up, but that he is ready to fight as an enlightened citizen, forming his own opinion and making ready to defend it—applause)—when that day comes, when that day comes, you will count for something in American politics. (Hear, hear and applause). (A voice: That will be next Tuesday.) Equal Opportunity It is very clear to me you still have a few prophets alive among you. (Laughter.) And what is it you want in this country? (A voice. An honest man for President). Well, I will change the question, then. (Laughter.) I will change the question and ask you what you hope to obtain by an honest man in office? (k voice: Equal opportunity.) That is the answer, and that is the answer every American ought to make. What we want in this country first of all for every man born under the American flag, and—yes, for every man who leaves his homeland and comes to live under it, is equality of opportunity. (Applause.) We want every man to feel, and, every woman, too, that honesty and thrift and industry and upright living may bring them a better day than they saw today. We want every father and mother to believe that it is going to be possible for the little children, who cluster around their knees to lead purer and better and more useful lives than they themselves have ever known. (Applause.) And that we may have that equality of opportunity we must have something else with it, and that is equality of right that every man shall stand before the law on exactly the same terms as any other man. (Applause.) That wherever the Government touches the citizen, or wherever the citizen touches the Government there shall be no notice taken of race or creed or color or anything else save good character and obedience to the law. (Applause.) Now that is what Democrats be- lieve in; that is what the American people ought to believe in, and that, and nothing else, is true Americanism. (Applause.) And I am glad to find in this assemblage tonight that sentiments of that sort provoke such hearty response. And if you are alert to the things you have the right to expect from your Government and equally, alert, I trust, to the things your Government has the right to expect from you (applause) when the 4th of November comes, I hope you will demonstrate your agreement with me by returning Royal Weller to Congress (loud applause) by sending him back to Albany, New York's best Governor, Al Smith (vociferous applause), and then, if you have time left (laughter) and then if you have time left to vote the Democratic national ticket it will be very much appreciated. (Loud and prolonged applause.) HAITI OCCUPATION BY AMERICANS TO END SOON That Is the Latest News in Haiti From Washington President Borno Said to Oppose Evacuation of Island I am writing to inform you that, according to the last news I received from Haiti, and which has been published in all the nationalist papers in the island, the Washington Government is contemplating the withdrawal of the occupation, which has been and is still the cause of so many sufferings and humiliations to the people and a stumbling block to their progress. It is also said that Mr. Borno, the Guadelopeau who deserted his flag (the French) during the World War and, who, in spite of our protestations, was forced on us by High Commissioner Russell as president, has written to President Goodliffe, at the suggestion of the unlatter, telling him that it would be unwise to take steps to that effect at the present moment, as the people would start fighting between themselves should the occupation evictate the Island. But Mr. Borno knows it is not so; he knows he is telling a lie just to retain his position of figurehead president. How in God's name could a people who have suffered as the Hattians have and who have been practically passing through hell for the last nine years, under the iron hand of the Occupation, misbehave in 'such a way?' But the Hattians are not disturbed at all by the action of Mr. Russell's instrument, knowing that President Coolidge will not take heed to the statement of such a low and unnatural creature, whose only purpose is not to lose his present position, which was given him by the High Commissioner. What the people want and are really clamoring for, is that the Washington Government let them, without interference on the part of the Occupation, reconstitute the legislative chambers and elect a president through popular suffrage, and the turning over to them of all their institutions. That will have the advantage of preventing a repetition of last January, when voters were intimidated, beaten, and in some instances thrown into jail. So long as the Washington Government is sincere in this project we should not worry about what the servant of Mr. Russell says. Yours very sincerely, JOSEPH MIRAULT, 105 West 141st street, N. Y. C.

STANDARD PRODUCTS CO. 438 Lenox Avenue, New York ROOSEVELT VOTED AGAINST THE FIRST RENT BILL, ONE OF ONLY TWO TO SO VOTE—DID NOT UNDERSTAND IT Recalls the False and Fatal Economy of the Last Republican Administration I Will Give You a Chance To Earn $200 a Week Governor Smith spoke as follows: Mr. Chailman, Friends and Neighbors of Harlem—I am about commencing this week, the fourth solid week of the campaign. I have been throughout the State of New York, and I have made the campaign as much a recital to the people of this State of the constructive achievements under my administration and a detailed report of the condition of the government as I have a plan for real action, because I feel that the people of this State are possessed of that degree of intelligence to be able to know whether or not to say to me on the 4th of November, "Well done. For your good and faithful service, continue, from the record," or whether they are just going to say it through a matter of course. I just came from Queen's County where I was speaking on a very interesting subject, the subject of housing, and I was led to that subject tonight by something that the candidate on the Republican ticket for governor said both here in Harlem and in the Bronx last evening. Now he asked at the beginning of the campaign that we campaign according to the record. That is exactly what I have done, but I am having an awful time to get him to do the same thing. The Housing Record Let us look at the housing record. What originated the theory that the government should interfere in that question of proper and adequate rentals for property for housing? The lack of proper housing facilities was the natural outgrowth of the conditions of war. The government called upon her people throughout the Right now, today, I offer you an opportunity to be your own boss—to work just as many hours a day as you please—to start when you want to and quit when you want to—and earn $200 a week. Does that sound too good to be true? If it does, then let me tell you about W. J. McCrary. His regular job paid him $2 a day, but his wonderful new work has enabled him to make $16,800 in three years. Spencer Warren is another man I want to tell you about. Mr. Warren made $424.82 in September, $480.82 in October, $119.86 in November, and $272.34 in December. Yes, and right this very minute you are being offered the same proposition that has made these men so successful. Do you want it? Do you want to earn $40 a day? A Clean, High-Grade, Dignified Business Have you ever heard of Comer All-Weather Topcoats and Raincoats? They are advertised in the leading magazines. A good-looking, stylish coat that's good for summer or winter—that keeps out wind, rain or snow, a coat that everybody should have, made of fine materials, for men, women and children, and sells for less than the price of an ordinary coat. Now, Comer Coats are not sold in stores. All our orders come through our own representatives. Within the next few months we will pay representatives more than three length and breadth of the land not to divert either men or materials from the purpose of the government in winning the war, and, as a consequence, in the reconstruction period following the signing of, the armistice here in the great state of New York particularly, and in a milder degree in other centers of population, we find ourselves without adequate housing facilities. And the landlords took advantage of the law of supply and demand, and when there were few houses and plenty of tenants, up went the rents. I committed that problem to the Reconstruction Commission in the early part of my administration in 1919. By Republican friends in control of the Legislature were unwilling to recognise that commission nor any of its works nor any of its deeds for fear that any constructive suggestion coming from it may be placed to the credit of a democratic administration, but the problem of housing was nevertheless something that they could not pass up because the suffering on the part of a great number of our people was too apparent and in itself it suggested that it must be attended to. Well, what did they do? In order to checkunate the activity of the Reconstruction Commission they appointed a legislative committee that you afterwards hear referred to as 'the Lakewood Committee. The First Bent Bill In 1920, in the spring of the year during the regular session of the Legislature, the Lakewood Committee on the Reconstruction Commission brought in their first report, and from that report grew the first Rent bill. That was a bill designed to let a ve You a n $200 a hundred thousand dollars for sending us orders. And now I'm offering you the chance to become our representative in your territory and get your share of that three hundred thousand dollars. All you do is to take orders. We do the rest. We deliver. We collect and you get your money the same day you take the order. W. J. McCrary You can see how simple it is. We furnish you with a complete outfit and tell you how to get the business in your territory. We help you to get started. If you only send us four average orders a day, which you can easily get, you will make $100 a week. Maybe You Are Worth $1,000 a Month Well, here is your chance to find out, for this is the same proposition that enabled George Garon to make a clear profit of $40 in his first day's work—the same proposition that gave R. W. Krieger $20 net profit in a half hour. It is the same opportunity that gave A. B. Spencer $625 cash for one month's spare time. June 2, 1906, the writer: — "For twenty-three years I were constant sufferer from the catarrh. I had a severe misery and burning in the top of my head, a continual dropping of mucus from my throat causing frequent expulsion. My entire system became involved and I grew worse. It seemed as if I could not recover from a constant, cough and frequent attacks of billious colic. My bowels were affected, causing alarm hemorrhages. I tried many remedies and finally took Pe-ru-na. In three days I was relieved of my bowel trouble and entirely cured by five bottles. I most cheerfully recommend Pe-ru-na." June 30, 1984, Mrs. Bourland writes again. "I will soon be seventy-nine years old and enjoy good health for one of my age. I still recommend Pe-ru-na and take it myself when necessary." For more than half a century Pe-ru-na has a proud record of good done. Men and women the world over stand ready to testify to its value in the treatment of all catarrhal disorders. Send 4 cents postage to the PE-RU-NA COMPANY, Columbus, Ohio, for book on catarrh. Pe-ru-na in either tablet or liquid form sold everywhere. tenant, who believed that his rent was forced up beyond the point that was reasonable into court and offer as his defense unreasonable and oppressive conditions surrounding the proposed increase. That was the very first attempt the city made to bring relief to the people of this city from the oppressive rents due to the shortage of houses. Two men in the Assembly voted against that bill. Just two. And Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was one. Now as long as he wants to talk from the record let us keep right on the record, and any time the record is a little bit disagreeable we call it out just the same, because he has behind him all the forces and power that the Republican organization in this State can bring to his command; he has the right and the privilege to lay my record just as bare as he chooses to lay it, but the trouble is from his viewpoint there is nothing in this record open to honest attack.

UNIVERSAL NEGRO POLITICAL UNION FOR BENEFIT OF ALL MEMBERS The time has come when the Negro must defend the honor and political reputation of his race. 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.

Canvass your neighborhood on their behalf and see that they get all the support necessary for their election: WHEN we think of the achievements of the Negro in the high art of government our mind goes back to three thousand years ago when Egypt and Ethiopia led the world in art, science, literature and government. The withering mind of time wrought many changes in the affairs of men and women, and the race of men who gave civilization to the world became a race of slaves. It is this slavery that scattered Negroes all over this Western Hemisphere and brought us, in direct contact with modern white civilization. God, chance or the first cause (call it what you may), freed us. As freed men we have been taking advantage of every opportunity to measure up to the standards of other men in science, art, literature, and even government, in spite of the fact that the race that a short time ago enslaved us, places every obstacle in our march to progress and ridicules our failure precipitated by its opposition. It is not the policy of white people to give publicity to the achievements of Negroes. On the contrary the most colorful articles are written about the failing of a single Negro, and the race suffers because of such exaggerated tales. The individual achievement of Negroes in the sciences, for instance, in the countries of their adoption, although being contributions to the race's progress, benefits the country and not the race. In the last World War Negroes invented many instruments and devices used in warfare, and white people took good care that these contributions to modern warfare should not be credited to Negroes. England, France and America benefited by these inventions, being the countries to which the majority of Negroes in the Western Hemisphere owe their allegiance. Our race may even suffer through the uses to which these powers may put these inventions. They may be used against our brothers in other parts of the world, and who to tell, in some manner or other they may be used against ourselves. Hence the development of the Negro along certain lines, in countries ruled by an alien race, strengthens the hands of those who seek to retard his progress. When a Japanese invents certain instruments, or through research discovers certain processes, the Japanese government uses them for the good of Japan and the progress of the yellow race. As of the Japanese, so of other peoples. Even the wandering Jew is concentrating his energies on Palestine so as to make his distinct racial progress count for something in a government of his own, and to counteract the idea that the Jew has no aptitude toward independent politics and self-government. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, through its farseeing leadership, is making every effort to strengthen existing Negro uations and to ultimately reclaim Africa for the Negro people scattered all over the world, so that their scientific achievements may enhance the prestige of their own nations and race, and not be dissipated in the countries of aliens. The black man may yet retake his place as the dispenser of civilization and those who oppress us may yet go to the United States of Africa to learn the ethics of true religion and culture. Negroes, concentrate your efforts on helping weak, black nations and redeeming Africa. Be good citizens in the countries in which you live, but be loyal sons and daughters of Africa. Ethiopia shall once more come into her own. ADVICE TO FIRST VOTERS "Men and Measures," Slogan of Universal Negro Political Union Vote to Insure Racial and National Betterment By G. EMUNCI CARTER In New York City there will be several hundred thousand first voters. This army of young people is to be rightly and safely guided into that wonderful experience, which means much in their political careers. The old line politician will be on hand, dishing out to them the usual sauce—"vote 'em straight boys." But a majority of this group, who have learned to think will say "not so, we want a reason for so doing that will hold water." A majority will stick long and well before swallowing the sauce, and when action is bad it will be to the tune of "Men and Measures," rather than parties. Sanity, reason and economic freedom, rather than sentiment, radicalism and industrial slavery. A word of advice is, therefore, timely to this noble army. First, you are to realize that the instrument of power—the bullet—is to be wielded not for personal gain, but for racial and national benefit of the whole people. It is to be an instrument of defense, but the experiences of same, rational thinkers, given in advice, will prove of value to you in shaping your course. You are to learn the value of selecting men and measures rather than parties because of influencing reform. Parties represent measures and are sorely neglected, and men who are long on promise for their parties are short in action toward the voters for their parties, put into office by your suffrage. You are to know and understand that in singing out measures and sup- STOP PROSTATE PAINS IN 24 HOURS Inlargement of the prostate gland is responsible for getting up frequently during the night, that draggy dull ache and burning sensation.

Party obligations are not germane to your choice, nor is it obligatory on your part to vote for the party of your cathere. In a word, your value is to be seen and realized in your ability to think. Thinking will lead you to draw conclusions, and these conclusions will at least reflect independent action and courage to resist the easiest way. One of the best lessons in voting may be given the young folks of our group by showing them how to support the Republicans in national affairs and then give their support to the Democrats in State and county politics. This is done because the measures in which we are interested are best cared for by these, respective particle, and men voted for, while not representing in all instances all that we would like them to be, yet come near serving our interests and are more friendly to our cause than the other fellow. Finally the young voter must be schooled against the erroneous idea of voting so that your vote is always on the winning side. Win whenever it is possible, but to be sure you have conserved the best interests of your race and nation when you have voted. A GLORIOUS WORK By ISA CHRISTIE There's a glorious work before us, A work both great and grand; Every man at once should join us, And help with heart and hand. There are homes now full of sadness, Whence peace and love are flown; We must fill these homes with gladness And make the Savior known. There are wives and mothers weeping. Whose hearts are cold and sad; We must give them joyous greeting, And bid them yet be glad. There are crowds of little children. Deep sunk in sin and night; We must raise them from their dark- ness. And lead them to the light. Bartle, Cuba. SUNRISE SUNRISE By MARGUEBITE, LYONS HORNE A golden maid awakens from out her dreams And smiles upon a dew-wet, scented world; Pleased with the promise of the new-born day, She dons her neglige of shimmering russet rose. L. and, laughing, shakes her tawny locks from out her open And golden sunbeams fall from out the morning skies. Movie star debut! Keep dreaming up for the big screen. Inspired by Sidney Lowe. Advancement Gained Through Attractiveness and Not Ability Relations between employer and employee should be both business-like and cordial. The employee should understand the duties expected of him or her, and should be left undisturbed in the due performance of same. The day of driving folks has passed. Slavey was abolished decades ago. Slave methods are therefore out of date. The day of expecting the employee to be servant to every whim, like and dislike of the employer has also passed. The employee is now considered a human being, with certain and positive rights. These rights may not be denied him, without the usurper being forced to answer for same. The State has thrown around those who seek and find employment certain safeguards. These rights and privileges are the results of much labor, and heroic strength. More employers are humane. Some, however, are otherwise and force the employee to be ever on the alert to keep inviolate his rights. Employers are in most instances of the latter type. They feel that they must have the best from their employees in return for a mere pittance and under almost impossible conditions. This is especially true as regards female employees. The employer does not always select his female employees on the basis of merit, and real ability, but because of attractiveness, her susceptibility to his desires, and willingness to yield to them. The colored female employee receives from the employer scant consideration unless she is of his sort. He draws no line. He forces his attentions on both married and single women in his service and condemns those who may be inclined to speak up against such tyranny, and low practice. In the average large concerns conditions as effect female employees are almost unbearable to the women of intellect and good breeding. These men fail to realize that when a woman seeks a job, that in the seeking is shown the desire to earn her living, and not to barter herself for a morsel. The female employee who tries to do the clean thing is looked down upon, harassed and finds her job hard to keep. While the easy going ones, who forget their home training and future are always secure in their jobs. As a rule she is elevated and favored over and above. More honest and clean living sister. This is bad, but it is true. Although it may be difficult for a woman on a job to keep her soul unspotted, though she may suffer, and she shunned, it is better all worth while for virtue has in itself its own exceeding and high reward. It pays after all. The employer who preys on his female help is a vile and unimpeachable wretch. If he is a husband and a father, he is less than a man who violate his marriage vows, and somewhere, down the road he will pay. He must pay. The lay of nature's will demands that he pay, and pay he will. The little deeds that we do two by two, must he paid for one by one. And the woman who allows herself to become the victim of her employer cannot hope for permanent adjustment and position. Men sooner or later despise that which they can use, as they wish. The woman who allows herself to enter into the life of a ma of family and obligations, only heaps coals of fire on her own head. The time will come when she is thrown aside as a useless vesture with her future gone and her honor vanished. She is shunned and looked down upon in the end. There are men who prey upon women, just as wild beasts prey upon each other. These men are to be shunned. You know them and I know them. Keep out of their glutches. Such men take advantage of the woman who for reasons may be working for her living. They greep and slide into one's life in various manners. Sometimes they appear to sympathize with her in her unpleasant surroundings. Often it is a man older than she, who attempts to play father, or, a big brother, or who wants to help her. In this way he causes into her life and blights it. A single woman should have nothing in common with a married man and should be careful of the single ones. A married man who approaches a single woman, or any woman for that matter, means her no good. He may love her, but he honors his wife, and when a choice is made, the wife wins out. Married men are usually the ones who ruin young and unprotected girls. No man wants a woman who has had an affair with a married man, or with any man for that matter. Men know this, yet they continue breaking hearts and ruining lives, and destroying souls. No man can long prosper who does this. And their victims are lost for both time and eternity. This article is a plan for clean working conditions: for clean employees which will make for clean business and clean employees. Give the honest woman a chance. There is no sure way of elevating the race than by thus honoring and elevating your women.

CHARPLASS FUR COMPANY Staple, 4, Champaign Hills, Chicago OUR LETTER BOX Solving Mother's Rainy Day Problem To the Editor of the Woman's Page: I am a constant reader of The Negro World, and am exhausted over what our women think. Being the mother of three small children (the eldest only four years old) and very young myself, I find the following method very useful in amusing the children: Very soon now we will have cold and rainy days. We mothers know the question often asked by children during this uncertain weather: "Mother, what can we play next?" Since the sunny days of summer are gone and our little ones out-door play is cut off, the question which rises before us is: How can the little ones be amused? This question may sound simple but it is a difficult one, because of the variety demanded by our little ones who so soon tire of one thing. Dolls, trains and other toys are played with a very little while then discarded for some new form of entertainment. Mother, of course, has her household duties to perform, therefore the little ones must be taught to amuse themselves. A pencil and paper will keep a child happy for a long period. Encourage a child's natural instinct by letting it reproduce on paper what it sees around it, by this method the little mind and fingers can be kept out of mischief for an indefinite time. Next we have drawing. The infinite variety affords the little mind the change it craves, and the color effects it can produce with crayons are so beautiful that he is supremely happy to think he did it all "his own self." Since paints are too mussy for one ones nowadays crayons are made that are as clean as lead pencils. They are inexpensive and come in such a bewildering variety of colors that the child is fascinated and works on and on completely absorbed. You can't imagine how quickly the children will learn the alphabet if the letters are of different colors. Very often pictures in fashion books and discarded magazines will afford many opportunities for the most beautiful color effects. After the pictures have been colored they may be cut out and pasted in a scrap book. To make a scrap book take a few sheets of brown paper, fold the desired size, and let the child stitch down in middle. To keep the little ones off the floor out of the draught—if high chairs are discarded—place a few thick books in the chairs and let them sit around the table. Nearly every child has an eye for color: The drawing, will not be perfect by a long way, but the color scheme, the green of the meadow and the deep blue of the sea, will all show. Now, dear mothers, we have solved our most vital problem. Also we will help develop the little brain and teach it to see and to remember what it has seen. MRS. H. HARRISON. We Are Bound to Win Despite Embarrassments To the Editor of the Woman's Page: Please allow me a little space in your valuable paper to express my sympathy with the U. N. L. A. and our leader.

But never mind, let us put all our trust in God along with love, work and prayers and we are bound to win, for Africa is ours. We of the Kingston division are progressing nicely, thank God.

WOMAN AS AN EDUCATOR By AMELIA SAYERS Woman above all other educators educates humanly. The man is the brain, but the woman is the heart of humanity; he its judgment, she its feelings; he its strength, she its grace, ornament and comfort. Even the understanding of the best woman seems to work chieftly through her affections. And thus, though the man may direct the intellect, the woman cultivates the feelings, which chieftly determine the character. While he fills the memory she occupies the heart. She makes us love what he can make us only believe, and it is chieftly through her that we are enabled to arrive at virtue. Home Life and Virtues The poorest dwelling presided over by a virtuous, thrifty, cheerful and clean woman may thus be the abode of comfort, virtue and happiness; it may be the scene of every ennobling relation in family life; it may be endearced to the man by many delightful associations, furnishing a sanctuary for the heart, a refuge from the storms of life, a sweet resting place after labor, a consolation in misfortune, a pride in prosperity and a joy at all times. Therefore, from this source I say to the women of my race let us demand, the respect of our men. Do your part in teaching them moral principle. Lack of Self-Control Means Failure Many of our young men lack moral principle. They cannot look upon a beautiful woman with a pure heart and pure thoughts; they have not manifested or practiced that self-control which develops true manhood and brings into subordination evil thoughts, evil passions and evil practices. Men who have no self-control will find life a failure both in a social and in a business sense. The world despises an insignificant person who lacks backbone and character. Stand upon your manhood and womanhood, honor your convictions and dare to do right. True Beauty Not of face but of Heart and Soul To be a woman in the truest and highest sense of the word is to be the best thing beneath the skies; it is something more than dressing, being a good wife or a mother. Beauty and style are not the surest passports to womanhood, some of the noblest specimens of womanhood that the world has even seen have presented the plainest and most unprepossessing appearance. A woman's worth is to be estimated by the real goodness of her heart, the greatness of her soul and the purity and sweetness of her character, and a woman with a kindly disposition and well-balanced temper is both lovely and attractive, no matter how plain her face may be and how homely her figure; she makes the best wife and the truest mother. SMILE Hard Problem SMILE An American in dear old London was bragging about his automobile. He ended his culgy by declaring: "It runs so smoothly that you can't feel it, so quietly you can't hear it, has such such perfect ignition you can't smell it, and as for speed—hoy, you can't see it." "But, my word, old dear," interrupted the Briton, anxiously, "how do you know the bally thing is there?"—Blue Baboon.

W. NIMMON, 1130 West 40th Street, CLEVELAND, OHIO.) LONDON, Oct. 31. Prime Minister Macdonald met his Cabinet today. A decision was reached to step out of office before the new Parliament assembles. The resignation of the Labor Cabinet probably will come early next week. This course will permit Stanley Baldwin, Conservative leader, to meet the new Parliament with his Still Going On—Alteration Sale EASY TERMS ON ALL VICTROLAS, PIANOS, RADIOS MORRIS MUSIC SHOP LENOX AVENUE, Cor. 143d STREET PIANOS 918 UP. PHONOGRAPHS 918 UP. REDUCTION ON RECORDS AND MUSIC BOLLS Cabinet fully-organized. The conservative party won the election by the largest majority received by any party in nearly a century. The result can be ascribed to three influences: First, the political duplex inevitable with three parties and a minority in office. Second, socialistic flirtation with the Bolsheviks, which obscured the fight right through election day. Third, the vacillating policy, or rather, almost entire lack of policy, of the Liberals. The Liberals suffered most. The Liberals' strength in the last Parliament of 158 seats was cut to a mere forty, which it is predicted, taken with the fact that their popular vote dropped more than 500,000, means the amplification of the Liberals as a party. With the Socialists, although they had forty-one seats in the Commons, the situation is different. They increased their popular poll by more than 1,000,000. Thus, although weak in the Commons, and with a voting strength of only 149 against the Conservatives 400, they are a power to be reckoned with. The vote was the heaviest in history, 16,000,000 out of an electorate of nearly 20,000,000, going to the polls. With the smoke of battle clearing away, it becomes increasingly apparent that Mr. MacDonald's attempt to explain the Foreign Office's attitude toward the "Zinoviev letter" was a great factor in the Conservative landslide. At that moment the Socialist program became obscured, and, since the Liberals had not much of a program, the old traditional 'British chargeter proclaimed itself by people, high and low, simply going to the polls and voting "safe." In the minds of most was the Conservative record, which points toward tranquility and away from revolutionary change. Woman Vote Big Factor And in that it was very evident the women played a big hand. The women voted stronger this time than at any time since they were enfranchised in England. Their main complaint was that the price of food, notably bread, went up under the Labor Government. The Labor argument that possibly the political campaign in the United States and had an effect on the price of wheat, believing the British Government of responsibility, did not convince them. This leads to one of the stranded phases of the election. Despite the turnout of women at the polls, only four of the forty-one women standing for Parliament were elected. Three of the eight who sat in the last Commons were returned—Lady Astor, the Duchess of Abbott and Mrs Hilton Philipson, all Conservatives. The new member is Miss Eleon Wilson, who until a few months ago was an out-and-out Communist, but MOTHER AND BABY So many married couples years for children that thousands of copies of a new book by Dr. M.

Miss Margaret Bondfield, the pride of the Labor party, was defeated, as were the two Liberals in the last House—Lady Terrington and Margaret Wintringham. Puzzle the Foreign Minister Puzzle the Foreign Minister The Socialist extremists, who indeed have little to be happy over, are overjoyed at Miss Wilkinson's victory. And, strangely enough they are overjoyed at the defeat of Frank Hodges, the miners' leader, and a Laborite. To their minds, he had become too much of a trade union pluteocrat. The argument against Hodges at the mining sections was his advocacy of the Dawes report, which British miners believe, works against them. All of which means that, although the battle for his Premiership is over for the present, Mr. MacDonald will have a hard right ahead of us to keep solidarity within his own party. It seems perfectly reasonable to say that, with the Liberals reduced to almost nothing and without their veteran leader, Asquith, and the Socialists busy with their internal quarrels, Mr. Baldwin, as Prime Minister, backed by the counsel of Lord Birkenhead, Winston Churchill, Austen Chamberlain and the others, brought into the Conservative fold by this fight, can be the virtual dictator of England's policy for the next five years. The big question today is who Stanley Baldwin will select as Forester Secretary, because it means so much immediately to the Empire. Lord Curzon would, like to take the position again, but because of his unfortunate personality, which has made him disliked generally in the Chancellories of Europe, his appointment would not be popular. It is rumored in the Conservative quarters that 'Austen Chamberlain' is being considered for the post. Mr. Garvey Stirs Them in St. Louis From the St. Louis Argus Marcus L. Provisional President of the Black Republic, addressed an overflow crowd at the Argus Hall last Wednesday evening. Many of the members of his organization, which claim 1,000 in this city, were present. His eloquence was dazzling and his enthusiasm true, but his plea though full of wisdom at times, were often tarnished with fallacies and impaction abilities. He based his appeal upon the liberary freedom and manhood of Negroes, and as a solution for these things he gave the founding of a Republic in Liberia where the Negro could establish his own culture and civilization. "This is a man's time to hold ground, not a puppet," said Gareth. "Supose the world had to depend on us. We would, perhaps, be going into our caves under the trees. Everything we have belongs to the white man. We are just dressed up monkeys." At this point there was a loud burst of laughter and Garvey had to stop a moment until it stopped. He did not discontinue to stress the eligandess of his countrymen, however. "We have made no progress in the last 10 years. Let us stop glittering ourselves. Let us work and contribute something to the world. The barriers of prejudice will be broken down when we stand on equal ground with all men. So long as we live on the borrowed goods of a white civilization, we will be kicked around. We must learn to use our heads as well as our hands and feet." Garvey's main appeal of the evening was for the Negro to recognize the great possibilities for him to have a kingdom in Africa. "Negroes fear no man but God. Too long you have bowed. Go forth in conquest of a kingdom," he emphasized. "God has created the world out of darkness so you can build things out of your imagination. Negroes," he shouted, "go out and create your own culture and civilization. Live the life that when you are gone they will know you passed this way, that the world shall read of what you have done for humanity and civilization." Hearings in Chicago and Washington, by the Senate committee investigating campaign funds ended yesterday. Treasurer Hodges revealed that Republican collections up to date are approximately $3,750,000. The Democratic total is $553,268, and that of La Follette $171,815. Members of the committee she dedicated Congress will be asked to limit campaign expenditures, probably to $1,000,000 or $1,250,000 for any one party. Joseph R. Grundy of Pennsylvania, champion G. O. P. collector, admits his total is now $521,000. ROBBING ZULUS OF COTTON LANDS A Native Protest and the Discriminating Conclusion of "The International," the Communist Newspaper From the Johannesburg International Whilst Parliament was debating with more or less heat the question of what class of settler should be given the cotton lands in Northern Zululand there was not one voice raised in protest against this latest example of land grazing from the nation. The president of the Zulu Congress, Mr. Goedemel, is reported by "The Burger" to have said in an interview that "sometimes one asks whether all the promises and assurances given by Great Britain have been thrown overboard as publish. We have never been able to take a share in the government of our country. We are only tools in the hands of others, and that is what makes the future so dark. Our land is our heritage. Who has been guilty of the transgression of these physical boundaries? It was the white man, and are the white men now going to wipe out the artificial boundaries." The ruling race loses itself in the mists and seas of selfishness, to which their power tempts them." We hear a good deal about the intrigue of the Kolsheviks in confeatating land and property in Russia, but in no case were the peasant cultivators driven off their land in the ruthless manner that the natives of Zululand and other parts of South Africa have been dispossessed. Only the big landlords were dispossessed in Russia and their land added to the peasants' small forms. Here the opposite policy obtains, on the principle that "to him that bath shall be given." We doubt, however, whether the protests of the Zulua will have any more effect than the protests of the English villagers against the land enforced a century or two ago, or the light of the handcuffs against the factory system and the introduction of machinery. Land here as elsewhere will be used by that section which can for the moment and under existing circumstances use it most usefully from the point of view of the demographics. Cotton is wanted by British imperialism. Zulua can grow cotton, and the Zulua men and women in pots must appear before King Cotton, as they have vanished before the advance of sugar cane and tea. He will be for a time and more in the ranks of the problem, and will hardly through intimate suffering, and rarely through only by paying his force and opposing the organized might of the sufferer to the organized good of opinion he will in the first place be able to make the edible and from the prize to a satisfactory freedom which will be a higher plane than the relative mutual comfort and liberty of total life. Mr. Geopendie will effect nothing by calling upon the British government to keep its promises. No government ever keeps its promises if their entitlement is unenforced. And it will help him just as little to call upon God the tribute of all people to restore the ancient boundaries. The necessity it may be required that the Zulu empire extend their territories to the very remote regions from inner Africa. What is needed to the Zulu workers in common with all others, to get to understand that for good or evil the old condition are going and will can be gone, that they must as sinfully as possible adjust themselves to the new problems confronting them. The lovely dove and church staff stuff about a living Saviour is not going to help them, any more than it has helped their white fellow-workers for thousands of years. Organization and education on scientific lines, an understanding of the causes underlying their envelopment and misery, will lead them as it is leading millions of toilers in this and other countries to the conviction that it is not race, creed or color which should divide men, but economic interests. That the international working class has one interest in common which transcends, all the differences and prejudices which divide it, and that is the destruction of the capitalist system of society and the substitution of an international federation of workers' republics based on co-operative production of all useful and pleasant things and their distribution in the most equitable and expeditious manner to all who assist in their production.

Name St. Add City State Tetter Solve With Europe Series You Have—See N Today To the Editor of The Negro World: The people of the Pacific Northwest were highly honored by having as their guest the Hon. Marcus Garvey, who brought to us some home-coming truths such as the Western people have not had for a long time. Unlike most of the previous leaders who have visited the West, Mr. Garvey did not boast of the Negro's progress, nor did he attempt to make a speech of pure eloquence, which often is nothing but hot air, but he brought to the people some rock-bottom truths which were sorely needed. One of the outstanding points of Mr. Garvey's speech was that self-reliance is so sadly lacking in the Negro race. When the Negro does not blame the white man for his condition, then he blames it on God and the angels. Mr. Garvey inspired the hearts of his hearers that God created all men with a physical body and a supply of gray matter for their development and use, and God gave to man his five senses, and it is his business to use them if he will or let their he dormant. In spite of the fact that Mr. Garvey has been accused of being ignorant, egistical, illiterate and all of that, he has certainly proven to the United States and to the world that he is truly the man of the hour. So one could sit in the hall under the voice of Marcus Garvey and not be impressed by his broad-mindedness. As an individual he impresses us as modest, but withal strong and courageous. During the six years of existence of the U. N. L. A. he has shown himself a leader in every sense of the word. He has withstood gidicude and misrepresentation; he has walked through the burning life of jealousy and he has come out even more determined to do and to share. Of all the leaders who have been in the West within the past six years, Mr. Garvey is the only one thus far who has really attempted to do anything. Just as Theodore Roosevelt stood as a representative of a 100 per cent type of American manhood, so does Marcus Garvey stand as a 100 per cent type of the awakened Negro, standing for his rights and those of the race, and battling the demons of ignorance, slothfulness and jealousy among his people. Deep, clear, truthless and all that goes to make a masterpiece of oratory were evident in the speech of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. One great fault of the Nine to that. One great fault of the Negro is that he hates to give credit where credit is due. Some people even lead- Remove Your Fat and Be Happy BY THE DAILY USE OF Wayne's Reducing Soap Very can quite be to take a good sign of the event. Frage, Exercise, Dose of Holea.

The 1938 budget, by 1939, for 222.29 was formally adopted yesterday by the Board of Estimate and Appointment, with Comptroller Craig casting the only opposition vote. This budget—by far the largest in the city's History—is now virtually an accomplished fact. It must go before the Board of Aldermen, who have twenty days in which to consider it and make cute, but who are not authorised by law to make any additions to it. Should the Aldermen make any cuts, the Mayor, would have the right of veto over them, and it then would take a three-fourths vote of the Board of Aldermen to override the Mayor's veto. However, with the Board of Aldermen overwhelmingly of the political faith as the members of the Board of Estimate, there seems small chance of any cuts being made. ers, hate to admit that Marcus Garvey is a man who uses his gray matter, and that he has done more for the race of Negroes not only in the United States but in the whole world in six years than some of the would-be leaders have done in fifty. To its young people of the West, Marcus Garvey is a source of inspiration. The Negroes of the world have a right to feel proud of Marcus Garvey, put for what he says he would like to do, but for what he has done and for what he is now doing. A great many leaders tell us what we ought to do, but so far as doing it themselves, nothing doing. Marcus Garvey is a leader who does things. The work that Marcus Garvey is doing is a credit to birth races. It is a work that will uplift the Negroes in their standing with other races of the world. Finally, we young people of the Earth, Northwest shall not forget that speech, for we know, and all the world knows, that "Marcus Garvey once pressed this way."

M. L. A. & A. C. L. here who are abate with the fire of Garveyism, which is spreading slowly but surely in the hearts of Negroes of this republic, decided to celebrate the Fourth International Convention of the Negro People of the World in such a manner that the day chosen for the function would be memorable in the history of the Negroes of this community. To that end elaborate preparations were made for weeks in advance under the capable direction of Mr. Abram Labega, the energetic president of Chapter No. 53. Invitations were sent to several sections of the republic inviting chapter No. 58 and Division No. 26. Preparations for this grand demonstration were nearing their completion when, like a storm, which suddenly appears to blight the prospects of a fair day, something intervened and retarded the progress of the whole plan. Consequently the grand parade intended by Chapter 53 had to be postponed. Notwithstanding this great setback, the spirit of the new, Negro was not crushed, and Sunday, August 21, found the Liberty Hall of Chapter No. 53 filled with Negroes gathered from all parts of the district, to participate in the celebration of the Fourth International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World. Prominent among those present were representatives of the Dominican government, representatives from the local societies, officers and members of No. 26 Division, San Pedro de Macoris. The members of the Condujo amateur brass band in full uniform, the African Legion, the members of the choir and the Black Cross Nurses, all in uniform, lent a great lustre to the appearance of the gathering. The function commenced at 3 p.m. with the Ethiopian anthem, which was beautifully rendered by the C. A. B. band under the masterly direction of Band Master Albin T. Armante; its zealous and indestructible founder and leader, who is doing all he can to discipline the young men of his race and raise their musical status. The President, Mr. Abram Labega, then delivered a short address explaining the object of the gathering and introducing Don Juan M. Mondez, lieutenant of the municipal police and representative of the Dominican government, in honor of whom the Dominican National Ambassador was played by the C. A. B. Band. The opening ode was next sung, after which the chapelin, Mr. Charles Thwaite, performed the religious exercises. A stirring ad- CHRISTMAS OFFER TO AGENTS AND DEALERS Our sample outfit is now ready.

How Year's events and holidays for Bush was such influenced by Dr. T. Milton, a native of the German Protestant state of the Cameroun, West Africa. He was born in Dunia in 1860 and educated in Germany and graduated from William the Second University as medical doctor on Jan. 3, 1914. He is also an active member of the London Division of the U. N. L. A. and A. C. L. and in 1917 received from the British government for valuable medical services rendered the degree of G. C. M. Dr. Milton is at present on a tour in this republic. He is a stance supporter here of the reopening of Africa and is doing much to arouse enthusiasm among the Negroes here in the interest of the U. N. L. A. Other speakers of the evening were Mr. Thomas Darle, the vice-president; Mr. Charles Martin, secretary; Mr. Anthony Bastian, treasurer of Division No. 26; Miss Josephine Labeges of Chapter No. 53, and the representatives of the various local societies on Consulso estate. Refreshments were next served, at which time the C. A. B. band rendered several beautiful selections. The audience afterwards went in a process headed by the band and the African Legion to the staff, on which floated the Red, Black and Green. At the lowering of the flag the band again played the Ethiopian anthem, which was a very impressive sight. The next day, September 1, the officers and members of Chapter No. 33 went to San Pedro de Macoris to join the members of Division No. 26 in a procession, the first given by that division since that fatal procession which led to the arrest and subsequent repatriation of the former officers of that division three years ago. At 2 p.m. the procession went through the streets of the, town and back to the hall, where a gigantic mass meeting was held. There were present on the rostrum several officers representing the Dominican government and an address was delivered by the captain of that department, slating Santo Domingo is a Negro republic. This declaration was received with great approbation by the audience. Addresses were also delivered by Mr. Abcam Labega, president; Miss Amelia Parett, lady president, and Mrs. Ann Abbott, first lady president of Chapter No. 53, Consuelo. Among other speakers was Mr. J. Harley, one of the former officers of No. 26 Division. Refreshments were served and the vice-president of the Division, Mr. Thomas Darle, thanked all present for the loyal manner in which they responded to the call of the U. N. L. A. & A. C. L. The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Dominican anthem. The third and last phase of the celebration was a grand social held on Wednesday evening, September 3, by Chapter No. 53, at which were present officers representing the Dominican government, Alz. I. Senores Alabedes Guerra, captain of the municipal police; Caminere Alferez and Caesar Valaquez, second lieutenant of the municipal police. The captain seized the opportunity of assuring the Division of the friendly attitude of the government towards the U. N. L. A. & A. C. L., stating that it would not only get the support of the municipal police to function in this republic, but the help of the entire Dominican government. The African Legion pardoned to the admiration of the officers and a short program of recitations by the children and songs in Spanish and English by a few ladies were rendered. A stage dance to the strains of music by C. A. B. band was given and an enjoyable time was brought to a close by the singing of the Ethiopian anthem. The whole demonstration from beginning to end exhibited two marked features: Aim: The determination of Negnes here to stick to the U. N. I. A. & A. C. L., and the willingness of the government of this republic to support this grand organization and assist it in carrying out its aims and objects.

Triscott Tucker, who was an active member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is reprinted from The Bermuda Midocean of October 18. Dr. Tucker died on October 3 from injuries sustained in an automobile accident in Harlem. The remains were specially prepared for shipment to Bermuda by C. Leon Estwick & Bro., capable undertakers, and embalmers of 158 West 136th street, New York City. Doctor J. Triscott Tucker, third eldest son of the late Joseph P. and Isabella C. Tucker, of Warwick East Bermuda, was born January 16, 1886. He received his early education in the public schools and the Berkeley Institute. After completing his primary education, his thirst for knowledge forced him to the higher walks of life. This led the young man to the Academy of Howard University, Washington, D.C., where he completed a scientific course. Doctor Tucker, when young, always showed signs of an ambitious, energetic and faithful student. He was never too proud to help himself for the advancement in his courses and at no time did his pride prevent him from allowing to his fellowmen that he was energetic and faithful. His love for the higher things of life created a determination to accomplish intellectual pursuits. Finally this young man entered the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. At the completion of this stimulating course he was awarded the degree of B.Sc. (Bachelor of Science). His eagerness to serve humanity at his utmost capacity could be answered in no other way than by entering the School of Medicine at Howard University. His keen wit, clear cut judgment and persistent efforts were ever with him in the study of Medicine. This enabled him to complete the course in its prescribed time, consequently this permitted him to carry out his heart's desire and he was awarded the Degree of M. D. (Medical Doctor). This completed a thorough course of study of 10 years, graduating with the class of 1921. After serving as a Medical Intern at Believee Hospital, New York City, Dr. Tucker took the State Board Examination of New York City and was admitted and registered as a practicing physician and surgeon of New York State. He practiced in New York City two years, during which time he associated himself with many institutions of scientific and medical services. Dr. Turker was connected with several institutions and organizations in New York City. He died at Harlem Hospital, New York City; Oct. 2, 1924, death being due to an automobile accident at 121st street and Lenox avenue. New York, while on his way to examine two patients. Services were held at St. James Presbyterian Church, Monday, Oct. 6, 1924. A large number of friends filled the church to its greatest capacity, among them being members of the North Harlem Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association and of the Howard alumni; also a large staff of doctors and nurses in uniform from Harlem and Lincoln hospitals to pay the last tribute of respect to one whom they highly esteemed. The body arrived in Bermuda by the S. S. Fort St. George on Friday, Oct. 10, and was buried with honors of the G.U.O.O.F. Lodge No. 1026 in the family vault at the Presbyterian Church, Warwick, on Sunday, Oct. 12, 1924. BANES, CUBA The Banes Division of the U. N. I. A. held a series of meetings during which time the Hon. Richard H. Bachelor, who attended the fourth international convention of the Negro peoples of the world gave his report of the convention. He was elected as delegate to the convention to represent the divisions of the U. N. I. A. in the Province of Oriente, Cuba. The speaker delivered several addresses in an eloquent manner to the satisfaction of all who attended the various meetings. Despite the heavy downpour, of rain the meetings were always well attended and standing room difficult to obtain. Mr. Bachelor returned from the convention overflowing with the spirit of Garveyism. It is a credit to the organization to have such men as representatives. This division wishes the Hon. Richard K. Bachelor a very successful career, and hopes his life will long be spared to represent this grand and noble cause of Africa. ARNOLD O. CUNNING. CAPETOWN, SOUTH AFRICA A grand unveiling of the chariot took place at the West London Division.

A series of meetings were held under the auspices of the Trenton Division-No. 227, of the U. N. I. A. They have done much to revive the spirit of the staunch and faithful members. Although it rained the first part of the week, and the Trenton annual fair was going on, quite a large number of members and friends attended.

Great was the pleasure exhibited by the audience when they were informed that the infant, Mardous Emanuel Robinson, was to be baptised by the Rev. W. E. Bartley, and also dedicated to the colors of the Red, Black and Green. The reverend gentleman in presenting the infant to the audience, urged the parents to see that their children were brought up in the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The chairman, Dr. J. T. Barton, after thankning the audience for their presence, reminded the parents and guardians of the great responsibility resting upon them for the proper bringing up of the little ones. A. N.

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.

Great no doubt was the riot of difficulty and doubt that raged in his mind before reaching the great decision. He was born, bread and nurtured in the household of the Republican party. He was fostered and fondled as its favorite child. He was elected to office by a Republican constitutency, and appointed to high position by two Republican administrations. He was elevated to the rank next to the cabinet portfolio which records the high water mark of Negro official recognition. He, if any colored man, was bound to the grand old party by the double tie of racial and personal gratitude. He was a school mate of President Coolidge and a classmate of Attorney-General Stone. As a renowned member of the Boston bar, he had easy and influential touch with the New England crowd which is now dominating the fortunes of the Republican party. Able-bodied, able-headed, of facel speech and pleasing address, he stood in many ways as the ideal leader of the hosts of Negro re-enforcement in the army-of Coolidge. But the clap came out of the clear sky. The Sunday morning papers of August 21 astounded us with the announcement that William H. Lewis, Ex-Assistant Attorney-General, had severed his affiliation with the party of Coolidge and joined his fortune with the forces of Davis. When men change their long continued and generally expected associations decent respect for the opinion of their former and future associates requires that they should set out in clear form the reasons that impelled the transference. This Mr. Lewis has done in his release which set forth in clean pellucid style, which characterizes his learned legal utterances. They who run may read; many who read will run in the direction of his leading. In physics, they tell us that action and reaction are equal and in opposite directions. What is the response of the colored race to the attitude of Lewis? How do they regard his shift of allegiance? Twenty years ago he would have been denounced as an angrate and a traitor. Pulpit and press would have vied in condemnation of his conduct. Last week I intended to write a release on the Lewis revolt. I wanted to involve the comprehensive opinion of the Negro press and other organs of public opinion. One week after the event, the colored press seemed hardly aware of the happening. Only a few journals took any notice whatsoever of the most significant event in the political history of the Negro race. There was no violent condemnation. Some carried the news item with approving headlines; others indulged in mild criticism as if clapping him across the wrist with a flexible ruler. At the end of the second week after the release, I find that the Negro press is still mildly concerned or wholly unconcerned over the conduct of the brilliant Bostonian. It will seemingly take a great time to fatho the deep significance of it. The revolt of Lewis is not merely the result of an individual whim; it is a symptom of wide spread unrest and dissatisfaction with existing political tendencies. Mr. Lewis has translated into action the feeling of Negro leaders who think on these things. Outside of the professional politician who affect a spasm every time the masters take snuff, there is little political enthusiasm left in the race. The only genuine enthusiasts are those who follow the line of least reflection. To the normal mind of the race the political situation is equivocal. The tossing of a penny may as well as not determine his decision. The candidates are all good men, each of whom if elected would as much as he felt was safe, and prudent which in any event would he but little. Like the potato, the best part of the Republican party is under the ground. The worst conduct of the Democratio party let us hope, is in the past. Today, the two are actuated by principles which are not widepart. The time has arrived when the Negro can divide his vote without self-reproach or sacrifice of self-respect. This he could not do a generation ago. SUBSTITUTION B. H. M. DEW The flower, beautiful and fair, must fall; But in its place will then appear the fruit. Three-quarters of a million dollars is added today to the fund of the Federation of Jewish Philanthropic Societies of New York city. Also the federation is in receipt of high praise from President Coolidge. A dinner, held jointly in the Waldorf-Astoria and Pennsylvania hotels at $100 a plate to raise funds for the societies, attracted 2,500 persons who pledged $500,000. In addition, the entire proceeds from the sale of tickets went to the fund, as an anonymous donor paid the expenses of the dinner. Praise of communal charity organizations which have "sought to substitute sense for sentimentality", in their donations was voiced by President Coolidge in an address to the federation. From the executive offices at the White House the President apko directly, by telephone, to the members assembled at the dinner. He praised the methods of the federation in its adoption of the budget plan as the basis of its charity system. "The plan," he continued, "has eliminated the waste of indiscriminate charity; but that is not by any means its most commendable, accomplishments. Far more useful. I think, is the service it has done in organizing these works of human helpfulness so that we may be sure they will not do any more harm than good." The President criticized misdirected charity efforts. "There is an impressive array of testimony that the average dollar of indiscriminate, well-meant, ignorant donation to charity is mostly wasted," he said. "Many such dollars are for worse than wasted. You do not seek the cold and heartless elimination of sentiment from your charitable works. You have, however, sought to substitute sense for sentimentality; and that is altogether to be desired." Mr. Coolidge praised the federation as "one of the monuments to the independence and self-reliance" of the Jewish people. "It may well be an inspiration to every charitable agency in the land," he said. Mortimer L. Schiff, chairman of the Dinner Committee, opened the proceedings at the Waldorf, while Joseph L. Buttenweiner, president of the federation, presided. Félix Warburg, chairman of the board of trustees, presided at the Pennsylvania Judge Proskauer and the Rev. Nathan Knuss made appeals.

CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE AT LIBERTY HALL (Continued from page 2) responsible for Negro teachers being put on the Civil Service list, and it was Judge Churchill when he had control of the DeWitt Clinton High School who condemned the action of another football team that resented the presence of a Negro student on the DeWitt team, and refused to allow the game to be played unless the Negro student was included. Such a man, he said, deserved the highest commendations and the fullest support we can give. JUDGE CHURCHILL SPEAKS Judge Churchill then spoke. He referred with pride to the fact that he was also a graduate of City College and during his term there, although there were no colored students in his classes, there were students of every other race and creed. In the public schools and in the City College he had got the best education that a man could get, namely, that of having no bias or prejudice against people whatever their color or religion may be. He spoke of the reforms which he had wrought in the school system of the city when he was president of the Board of Education and of the fact that he was responsible for the appointment of the first Negro woman as assistant principal in one of the New York public schools. Furthermore, he was instrumental in having the flags on the schools of the city placed at half-mast in honor and deference to the great Negro educator, Booker Washington, when he died. White president of the Board of Education he definitely repudiated and condemned an attempt of the boys of competing high schools to abstain against a Negro fellow-studying of LAND! LAND!

"More Needed Than Fun" In explaining his attitude toward the colored race, Judge Churchill said: I think you will probably believe me when I say to you, irrespective of your vote, that I love the colored race. I have seen enough of the men and women of it to respect and revere their innermost nature. Of course, there are two kinds in all races. In mine there is crime and in mine there is scum. The only way for you to reach the plane you deserve in the world is to be calm, unjudged; not vicious, not getting square, but being placid. There is more needed from you than from the white people, because you have a higher road to climb. I say to you while I am proud that God gave me life. I am proud that if God had made me a Negro and I did what Mr. Garvey is doing—trying to prove that there is some insult coming from me to my race. (Applause). It is only an accident of birth that I am what I am; it is only an accident of birth that you are what you are; no one of you made a contract before you came here. Speaking of the Democratic Presidential candidate, Judge Churchill said Mr. Davis is an unstaining man in spite of the fact that he is from near the South. He is not prejudiced to people because of race. Ho (the speaker) had no particular love for Southern Democrats; he know how bloused and prejudiced they are and what they have done that put ablemish upon them, and maybe if he were down there he would be a Republican because of the friendship, he has for those that they abuse. But, he added, "Are you going to bring the grudge from the South to the North? Don't you know perfectly that the Democrats here are your friends? You must take human nature as you find it; you have judgment enough to know how to gauge a man and extract, as it were, his sentiments from his counswers." In conclusion he admonished his hearers to vote the entire Democratic ticket on Election Day.

Eso no significa que haya de poder impedir o detener una guerra civil con la que afora esta descendadenada en China. Ni podria hacer imposibles las hostilidades en Irlanda, ni entre el norte y el sur, ni entre una Irlanda afirmando su total independencia y un gobierno que lucha por conservar la integridad del imperio. Pero las guerras entre naciones, todas esas formas de conflictos internacionales que han desolado tantas veces el mundo, se proyecto por la liga acorralarlas de manera que no tencan escape. Ha habido denasiado hablar inutil sobre "declarar ilegal la guerra". La Liga está tratando de poner la frase en práctica. Los mejores cerebros de Ginebra han estado trabajando desde hace semanas en la formacin de un protocolo que hasta los no miembros puedan verse solicitados a firmar, y que hasta donde la inventiva y el bien deseo humano pueden lograr, haria virtualmente imposibles las guerras entre naciones. Nuestra corporación naviera es dueña de su primera embarcación—Recorrerá las Antillas y centro América en su viaje de iniciación—Ello constituye una derrota en el campo enemigo, en su esfuerzo por interrumpir el progreso de la raza—En camino del dasarrollo de nuestra relación industrial y comercial universalmente Nos place sobremanera el manifestar que esta asociación ha conquistado un nuevo triunfo, por sobre el sinnúmero de dificultades dimanadas de las maquinaciones de sus enemigos, realizando uno de sus principales objetos para los cuales ha sido organizada. Durante el mes de agosto próximo pasado y cuando nos hallabamos reunidos en asamblea internacional, la organización firmó contrato para la compra de su primera embarcación. Después de dos meses de grandes esfuerzos y mayores sacrificios, contamos hoy dia con uno de los transportes más modernos en servicio en este lado del Atlantico. El procedimiento consiste ante to do en prescribir el arbitraje, la solicita judicial, de todas las controversas internacionales, cualquiera que sea su indole. Si una nación rehusa, respetar la decision, se convierte en el acto en "agresor" y cono tal esta segura de ser opuesta por todas las fuerzas morales y económicas, y al fin, si es necesario, por las fuerzas mixtas de los miembros de la Liga. El gran progreso está en esta nueva definición de la agresión. Todo el mundo ha estado, o ha declarado estar contra la guerras de agresión. Pero la dificultad ha estado en decidir cuando una guerra determinada era de agresión. En la teoria de que el ataque es la mejor defensa, podría presentar un argumento, y se ha intentado y cierramente por los alenamientos, de que la invasión de Belgica y de Francia, no fue en realidad agresiva. Ahora todas estas obscuridades y equilibrios acerca de palabras han sido eliminados, y una definición clara y practica del agresor en una guerra entre naciones se ha adoptado. El país agresor es el que, habiendo rehusado el arbitraje, o una apelación a la Corte Internacional, procede a sostener sus demandas por la fuerza. Esta es una concepción americana. La idea furda dada por un abogado, un soldado y un profesor procedentes de los Estados Unidos y fue corraladamente aceptada por la comisión de la Liga designada para redactar un plan de desarme y de paz universal. Esta nueva embarcación debiera estar al presente en camino de la república de Liberia, conduciendo el primer contingente de colonos de la raza, pero debido a la poca lealtad y debilidad de dos oficiales de aquel gobierno, hemos tenido que suspender el envio de ellos, en espera de la resolución del Congreso de aquella república. Estamos en pleno convencimiento, sinembargo, que el noventa y nueve por ciento del pueblo de Liberia esta ansioso de recibir la cooperación de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, en pro de su desarrollo y de su progreso. Hoy más que nunca sentimos la pérdida de aquel gran patriota libero el honorable J. J. Dossen; inudablemente fué el uno de los grandes caracteres previsores del país, dispuesto siempre a adherirse a todo movimiento con tendencias al mejoramiento de su pais y de su raza. Nuestro infortunio estriba en que elementos de nuestra propia raza anidan en su alma el espiritu maléfico de la envidia, y recurren a cualquier medio para interceptar los esfuerzos de otros,, aún cuando estos esfuerzos sean inspirados no solamente en el rejoramiento de la actual condición de millones de la raza, sino también en la constitución de su propio gobierno. Pero no hemos de desmayar, toda vez que esta organización tiene ante si un gran programa que llevar a la realización, en lo que respecta a colonización y al progreso industrial y comercial de nuestro pueblo. No debe olvidar se que la tarea ha sido realizada dentro de los cuatro muros de la constitución de la Liga de Naciones. No se ha subtraduida nada de ese documento. Se agregan unas cuantas cosas por vía de supplemento y de explicação. Se hacen de vocabulario más preciso uno o dos artículos de la constitución. Pero el concepto original, el espíritu que animó a los forjadores de la constitución desde el principio, esta conservado. El nuevo protocolo no intenta en lo más mínimo suplantar a la Liga. El unico y gran propósito es fortalecer la hacería aún más efectiva. Nos abriga la esperanza de que en su proxima reunión, la Liga de Naciones, particularmente Francia e Inglaterra, resuelva en favor de la petición firmada por veinte millones de nuestro elemento en Africa y America, quienes moral y materialmente contribuyeron a la victoria en la última contienda universal, garantizandonos concesiones en el continente africano que abiliten al negro a constituirse en una entidad nacional, demostrando así su capacidad para gobernarse y poder colocarse a la altura de cualquier otra raza civilizada. Los que formamos parte integrante de esta organización, nos sentimos felices al presente por hallarnos, apesar de los muchos contratiempos y mayores dificultades vencidas, en el amplio camino del éxito. Con gran regocijo anunciamos el viaje inaugural del primer vapor de nuestra nueva corporación naviera, el cual tendrá lugar en la tarde del domingo 11 de enero del año próximo, con rumbo a centro America, las Antillas y puertos del sur de este país, llevando en excursión un gran número de nuestro elemento quienes visitaran las otras secciones de la raza en dichos puntos. Ellos fendrán el privilegio de estudiar condiciones en Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica, Panamá y Costa Rica, y estamos en el convencimiento de que este viaje ha de ligar más y más los lazos de confraternidad entre el elemento de este país y el de los puntos en cuestión. ¿Qué hará el gobierno american cuando llegue esta nueva invitación a unirse a las otras naciones del mundo en la abolición de la guerra? Puede negar su propia obra? Porque efecto, es un plan americano el que se ofrece a los Estados Unidos. Se han tenido varias miserables y prolegadas disputas acreña de la Liga de Naciones, principalmente sobre bases teoricas. Alora se va a proponer una gran y práctica medida. Se ha encontrado un medio por el que puedan dar nuestra cordial adhesión en toda vía pedal pleno y formal ingreso en la Liga. Es increible que se reserven más amo. Naturalmente, la administración de Washington no desea o no se atreve a mostrar una decisiva orientación en el asunto hasta después de las elecciones presidenciales, pero al menos debería ser capaz de reunir valor bastante para ver esta gran proposición como es y acceptarla por lo que ha de hacer por ellos por el resto del mundo. Comoquiera de que es la aspiración de la organización obtener no solamente uno sino varios vapores, ella ha entrado de nuevo en otra negociación para adquirir-su segunda embarcación, y con tal propósito recurre a sus miembros y a todo aquel elemento de la raza interesado en el éxito de dicha empresa, para que coopere a la realización de tal adquisición. Ella advierte al elemento de la raza en centro America, las Antillas y Africa que tenga productos para la venta, que los reserve dando una oportunidad a nuestra nueva corporación naviera, la cual intenta transportar dichos productos a los distintos mercados de este y otros países. Mejico y los Estados Unidos Con ocasión del paso por Nueva York del general Plutarco Elias Calles, presidente electo de México, esta produciéndose una evidente reacción en el sentimiento público favorable hacia aquel país. El azucar, el café, el tabaco, el cacao y otros tantos productos naturales cultivados por nuestro elemento, debe formar la base de comercio entre los agricultores y los manufactureros de la raza. Los millones diseminados por el universo entero que han sido ligados por la influencia de un movimiento fraternal y espiritual, pueden facilmente, ya que contamos con medios de transporte, contribuir materialmente a la solución de nuestro gran problema económico, aportando toda clase de cooperación a nuestra organización y a su auxiliar la nueva corporación naviera de Cruz Negra. Fuera inocente ocultarse que, estimulando y quizá imponiendo esa reacción, aparecen los leaders industriales, financieros, conerciales y hasta políticos más interesados en Mejico. Pero es indudable que, justamente, el hecho de que·los sean quienes encabezaban el movimiento da a este valor y fuerza excepcionales. Ellos, en efecto, sou los más capacitados para juzgar, en delinitiva, si los intereses americanos y mejicanos pueden confundirse y precipitar la inteligencia y el acercamiento que han estado bacindose sentir por su ausencia hace ya muchos años. Méjico, en estos momentos, parece a punto de conseguir de gope lo que ha venido tratando de obtener, siquiera, gradualmente. No ya el reconocimiento del país entero con sus problemas, sus peculiaridades, sus limitaciones y hasta us nismos errores. Hasta ahora, en efecto, se ha hablado sempre aquí de Mejico en forma condicional. Se pretendía siempre, implicita o abiertamente, que Mejico y los mejicanos, para llagar al acuerdo con los Estados Unidos, ajustaran su diferencias interiores, orientaran su conducta exterior y, en general, organizaran su vida nacional completa, en forma que se adaptara a un patron o concepción de Mejico al modo americano. Si se examina bien, en el fondo de tantos años de extrañamiento y dificultade entre los dos países, esta punto de vista americano. Ahora, por el contrario, se admite ya que Mejico deberá resolver sus problemas del nuevo de sus tradiciones, desde su punto de vista, con sus propios métodos. Y esto, que es racional y sencillo, puede ser y debe ser la clave de la olución ansida. Significa la eliminación del espiritu de intervención espiritual y indirecta que los mejicanos, con mucha razón, tan rechazado sin menor repugnancia que la misma improvisación material. De este cambio debe concederse el crédito a diversos factores. De entre ellos, quiza, al predominante el convenimiento logrado aqui ya de que este pais, tan grande, tan rico, tan poderoso, ... necesita a todo trance, y rapidamente ganar la amistad sintera, cordial y utilizable de los países limitrotes. Y de que estos sean lo muerta posible. Méjico aparece en el porvenir de los Estados Unidos como la incognita más importante. Méjico hostía revelo, es un peligro inmenso. Méjico amigo y seguro, es una tranquilidad... La conveniencia está en estimularle a la prosperidad y al orden y es solo dejando desarollar sus problemas, encontrará sus soluciones por mismo, puede hacerse. La elevación al poder del presidente Dante Lera será transcendental para su patria. Tendría el nuevo ejecutivo una amplia base en que trabajar por la prosperidad de su país un credito de benevolencia, de optimismo y de cooperación, abierto aquí en su favor. Cuantos aman al hermoso país del sur, cuantos admira a su bravo, sufrido y generoso pueblo, sólo pueden tener un deso: de que la paa se imburba hacia el que todas las energias se concentren en laarea de la reconstrucción.—La Prensa, N. Y. Bosquejo biográfico de José C.. Barbosa De humilde cuna, hijo de un zapatero en un pueblo del interior de Puerto Rico, de color ocurro, fu el aquel gran patricio, doctor en medisina, prominente político, de un corazón noble, José C. Barbosa. A mediados del siglo XIX, en un día de sol iluminando la pobre cabana, nació el primero de los apistoles del pas. En su nítez, como buen hijo de los tripicos corrió las vastas sabanas cercanas a la vivienda con sus compañeros de jugos, creciendo al lado de los arboles de la montaña y bañándose en las frescas corrientes de sus riachuelos en la exuberancia que de la vida al aire libre. Susprimero estudios en la escuela de la aldea le dieron la buena reputación de muchacho estudioso e inteligente, y su maestro le distinguiso por su aplicación y conducta en el pequeño plantado. Alii en pocos años hizo su instrucción primaria, pasando luego con grandes sacrificios de su padre a la capital, donde se preparó para cursar estudios superiores en una Universidad americana, donde se graduó de doctor en medicina. El robusto joven de color oscuro, volvió a sus queridas playas, puertorriqueas, ostentando un hermoso título adquirido por el esfuerzo de un padre de coañón pollo. Desde en plante de columna in house. Deses estos días y delhido a las luchas políticas en las cuales se empenaba el país, hizo sus primeros pasos político, en el partido liberal criollio, partido que proclamaba mayor suma de libertad política, económica y social, donde se dio a conocer, como un prestigio, como un director. Cuantos fueron sus esfuerzos? Más de un disguito tu que soporat; pero alma grande y sufrida, al fin triunfo en sus empenos, obteniendo la confianza de los nuevos dominadores del país adquems de sus concuidanados que le ensalzaron fué su jefe máximo, en al partido Republicano Puertorriqueño. El líder, el preclaro hijo de la cindad de Bayamón, en el apogeo de su carrera profesional y política, sufre un rudo golpe: la parca inexorable le avisa que debe como todos los mortales rendir su tributo, y, rodeado de todos sus amigos y familiares, termina su mission en la tierra el dia, 21 de Septiembre del año 1921. Cayo el roble; bajo sus ramas habianse cobijado las muchedumbres portorrquenas por medio siglo; su muerte fue un duelo general, porque sus ejecutorias como politico, como médico, como amigo y como un benefactor para su país, no tienen sobreras, son claras y brillarían para siempre en la historia de nuestro Puerto Rico. No podemos terminar sin traer a la memoria de nuestros amigos aquella célebre asamblea en el teatro "La Perla", la ciudad de Ponce. Se discutía en ella la conveniencia del pacto con el ministro español señor Sagasta. Nuestro doctor Barbosa era contrario a esa resolución, y no sucidole posible triunfar de los reactionarios, en un momento de exaltación patriotica se dirigio al escenario, tomo la bandera del partido y pronuncias aquelas memorables palabras que no podemos olvidar los hombres que fuimos sus-admiradores de toda la vida: "Llevo la bandera de la libertad de Puerto Rico; seguidne el que quiera. Ella sería el enblema de toda mi vida. Es preciso poner el honor de los Pugrturriquíos a salvo." Progreso en Nuestras Divisions. Algo irduo seria para nosotros y mayor espacio requeriria en nuestras columnas el numerar las realizaciones, debido ellas a la labor eficaz de cada una de las divisions establecidas universalmente por esta organización. Pero en esta ocasión hemos de hacer especial mension de una de las recienteamente constituidas—la División de Buenaventura, en la República de Colombia. Este nuevo ramo de muestra organizacion, fundado pocos meses ya y bajo la activa direccion del compañero Sr. Gerardo Vivas M. su muy bien seleccionado presidente, cuenta ya con un número considerable de miembros, y por medio de la determinacion y mayores esfuerzos de estos, dicha Division cuenta además con su vocero, el periódico "Iris," cuya publicacion no será solamente un medio de propaganda, sino también un arma de combate en defensa del derecho. Adjunto al No. 3 de dicha publicacion hemos recibido un cuento, el cual reproduciendo a continuacion: AVISO IMPORTANTE El Sindicato de la Raza Negra, organizado en la cidad de Buenaventura, Departamento del Valle, Republica de Colombia, se permite invitar a todos los pertenecientes a la raza para que roadyuguen a la organización. Esta organización persigue el mejoramiento y el progreso de la colectividad, y espera con ferviente anhelo a todos los elementos de muestra raza para formar una compacta general, bajo cuya bandera podamos aleanzar un porvenir alquenido, el cual traera para nootros grandiosas y beneficas soluciones en el futuro. En esta asociación encuentran nuestros amigos un campo amplio en donde poder-habitar tranquilos y pacificamente, aqui donde se respeitan las ideas de los individuos, sean estas políticas o religiosas, pues, agrupados al pie de esta gioriosa bandera, soo basecamos el progreso, la fraternidad y la libertad dentro del orden. Nuestro centro de organización ha emprendido una importante labor, con el fin de intensificar la campaña de organización en todo el territorio colombiano, y como tal, exitamus a todos los intelectuales de la Raza Negra para que nos ayuden en la lucha gigantesca que en beneficio de nuestros proletarios compañeros hemos emprendido. La asociación nos salva para porque ella busca el mejoramiento de sus hombres; va educandolos y formando en ellos las buenas costumbres y reglas higiénicas que necesitamos para nuestra vida practica dentro de estas condiciones. Trazaremos unainea de conducta que nos hará comprender los deberes que tenemos que cumplir, aprendemos a respetar el derecho ajeno y haresmos que el nuestro sea respetado. ventura, Septiembre de 1924 Puestos en libertad Cinco prioneros de la raza pertenecientes al cuerpo de Infantería de este país, los cuales fueron sentenciados a prision perpetua por supornerse haber tomado participación en los motines de Houston en 1917, fueron puestos en libertad bajo palabra en la penitenciaría federal de Leavenworth. La sentencia de estos prioneros fue commutada por una comisión de oficiales del ejército, quites practicaron una investigación en surril pasado y los declararon elegibles para posterior en libertad. El dia 12 de julio pasado, quedo inaugurada en Santo Domingo, la restauración de la tercera república, después de ocho años de una bochornosa ocupación del territorio nacional, por fuerzas invasoras de los Estados Unidos. Es gran dia de su dolorosa historia, llevose a efecto con el más desbordante regocijo de un pueblo que ama su libertad, y que no obstante su desdichada suerte, sieumpre la ha sabido defender con el más ardiente patriotismo. Esta restauración de la república se esla ejecutando de acuerdo con el ultimo plan de validación concertado en Washington, y firmado por los representativos dominicanos señores. Horacio Vásquez. Federico Velasquez y Franisco J. Peynado, después de haber, sido sometido a la aprobación del pueblo, que no tardó en aceptarlo, ya que contenía condiciones menos exigentes que los planes anteriores, y porque no comprometían o no ponian a riesgo en el futuro, la libertad y soberanía de la república. Los nacionalistas, o señor los de la oposición a que el plan se llevé a cabo, han tratado y tratarán de que ese plan sea declarado nulo por el mismo pueblo dominicano, pues ellos sostienen que ese plan contiene, porrafos que son inacceptables para un pueblo que tiene legítimos derechos a ser completamente libre, y que por consiguiente, si se legaran a ejecutar, pondrian en peligro la soberanía de la república, o sea la subordination de la República Dominicana, a la codicia imperialista de los Estados Unidos. Este grupo de patriotas dominicanos está formado por cindadanos probos e incansables luchadores porque la república sea execuada por las tropas norteamericanas, sin que su soberanía quede en absoluto sometida a ninguna influencia por parte de los Estados Unidos. Así fue que al ser efectuadas en marzo pasado las elecciones generales para elegir un gobierno propio y constitucional, para el pueblo, según al plan de calidad este partido de la oposición, encabezado por un cindadano patriota, señor Americo. Lugo, trato de impedirlas, pero ese fue en ván, debido a que ellos solamente componan una minoría del pueblo. Esa actitud patrónica que le cindadanos de la oposición sostienen de que la república debe de quedar al aberra evacuada pura y simplemente libre, bajo ningun acuerdo con los Estados Unidos, es en realidad, desde el punto de vista de la actitud que los Estados Unidos han tomado en cuanto a ese respecto, es intructura- sa, puesto que los Estados Unidos no hubieran evacuado el territorio domicano, sin antes habbarlo, de- jado bajo un previtado En cuanto a esto de la desocupación pura y simple, todo el pueblo dominicano insistió patrioticamente en ello, pero ya que después de ocho años de una ocupación cruel por una nación extranjera sobre otra cien veces más pequena y débil, ocupación que es la más vergonzosa ignominia para un pueblo que siempre ha sabido deramar su sangre por su伯rial, y ya que todos los esfuerzos y resistencia que hacía el pueblo dominicano porque su territorio fuera desocupado bajo ningún tratado era en vano, y ya siendo no posible sopotar más esa usurpación a su soberania, habia que buscar, del modo más conveniente, la manera de que los Estados Unidos evacuaran la república, que la habían invadido violentamente en 1916 sin ningun derecho, cosa que hicieron por la una razón de la fuerza so pretexto de que sus intereses estaban en peligro: En esta lucha de emancipación, como podriamus llamarla, no ha habido héroes ni libertadores. Todo el pueblo dominicano, desde el primer momento en que vio sus más sagrados derechos violados, se levantó como un solo hombre y protesto energicamente ante el mundo de la arbitraried de que era objeto y su resurgimiento ahora es debido a su arrogante y constante perseverancia por su independencia. Y ahora que la republica surge de nuevo, el pueblo dominicano ha puesto en esta horas de imminente peligro toda su confianza en el patriotismo del integérimo ciudadano general Horacio Vasquez, quien resultó triunfante con una mayoría abrumadora en las últimas ecciones celebradas.

Charmant a ete arrete a Jacmel et amene sous escorte a Port-au-Prince 一 Encore un nouvel acte arbitrale au compte de M. Borno. Relativement à l'article publié ici, initiune "La fermeture des écoles de Jacmel", M. Borno, "L'amant trop passionné du peuple et de la masse passanne", a fait arbitrairement et il légalement arrêté à Jacmel et achémine ici, sous escorte. Me Akins Charmant, Senateur de la République. Tout le monde sait que le loint principal mais indirect de cette arrestation est d'essayer d'empêcher la manifestation patriotique et paciique de Jacmel, dont Me Charmant en était Un des principaux organisateurs en son domicile. En verre, c'était mieux pour M. Borno de stopper à ce que cette manifestationait lieu aux États-Unis, en demandant à M. Coolidge d'arrêté ces hommes de couleur qui ont pris cette initiative; c'est probablement ce qu'il va faire. . Entin, passons, M. François Étache Joseph Louis Borno, s'est déclare entrée dans le sus-dit article où il n'est nullement nonmé. Dans cet article, il est parle de gouvernement, mais M. Borno ne forme pas le gouvernement. D'après nos leis et constitutions, un gouvernement pour être gouvernement se compose du pouvoir exécutif, legislatif et judiciaire. Or, il est un fait averé que M. Borno voulait se venger de M. Charmant, à cause de la discussion qu'il curent ensemble sous Davilmar, ensuite pour l'article dans lequel il cut à flageller M. Borno en 1915, dans le "Reveil National." M. Charmant va demander à ce qui soit remis à ses juges naturels qui sont ceux de son domicile. Le Courrier Haitien protège energiquement contre ca noïvel acé savage du pseudo-gouvernement de Mr. Borno et demande au Senat d'Haiti et à l'Union Patriotique de rediger des protestations constatant leur indignation.

G.: GRAND MEETING POLITIQUE A LIBERTY HALL DIMANCHE DERNIER—UNE FOULE IMMENSE ETAIT VENUE ENTENDRE LES DISCOURS DES CANDATS L'union Politique Universelle des Noirs appuie la Candidature de Mr. Coolidge a la Présidence; mais réclame Al. Smith comme Gouverneur de New York, avec d'autres amis démocratiques—Congressman Royal H. Weller a été ovationné a Liberty Hall—Lieutenant-Gouverneur George R.

Deux aviateurs militaires ont réussi à détruire des accumulations de au-dessus de Boiling Field, en se servant de sable électrique, d'après un procédé imaginé par le Dr. L. Francis Warren, de Harvard. Des petits groupes de nuages furent entierement dispersés par leur ataque, quant aux amoncellements importants, ils furent sillonés de déchirures artificielles à travers lesquelles les rayons du soleil passaient librement. Nous sommes heureux de pouvoir annoncer que la U. N. I. A., malgré les percusions et les machinations sans nombre auxquelles elle a été en bat, a pu une fois encore triompher de ses adversaires et réaliser le but que'elle gétait proposée. Lors du Congrès International en auût dernier, nous affrons contracture pour l'acquisition du steamer General G. W. Goethals. Un premier accomplé fut immediatamente versé et nous nous engageaîmes à envers deux autres à courts intervalles avant d'entrer dans la jouissance du navire. La dette que nous venions de contracturer était lourde; surtout si l'on considère que nos membres et délégués avaient du concentrer tous leurs efforts pour courvrir les frais du Congrès; d'autre part, que nous venions de déhousser $50,000 dans le développement de notre plan de colonisation de Liberia projet dans lequel nous fumes contrariés par M.M. Charles King et Edwin Barclay, respectivement Président et Secrétaire d'Etat de Liberia. Cependant, à force de résolution et de sacrifice nous avons pu faire face à ces nouvelles obligations; si bien qu'à cette heure, nous possédons un des bateaux les mieux équipés du service maritime américain. Il y a bien un reste de $25,000 a payer; mais nous sommes sur que d'ici quelques semaines nos membres auront reçu de quoi l'amortir. Bien que les conditions fussent loin d'être favorables, les spectateurs purent se rendre compte facilement de l'exploit des aviateurs, le Capitaine A. L. Eagle, et le lieutenant W. E. Melville. Ceux-ci furent obligés de monter à 13,000 pieds avant d'attendre les conches principales de "cunuli" sur lesquel ils voulaient opérer. Avec des huitets d'approche on put les voir disparaitre derrière un mage, et réapparaître soudainement, comme le mage "seffritait sous la pluie de sable electrise", envoyée par un appareil centrifuge place sous la nacelle. Les aviateurs dérivent un cercle au-dessus de la couche des mages, et ce cercle se trouva reproduit dans le mage-même comme une tranche nettement découpe dans la masse. Il sembla, vu de terre, que le mage diminuait sensibilement d'épaissir. Un promoireur de mages fut réduit à nant, après que les aviateurs suivant ses bords, l'évent arrose de sable. A cette heure-ci notre bateau devrait être en route pour Liberia (Afrique Occidentale) important le premier groupe de colonisateurs mais par suite de la taibesse et de la deloyaute de deux des Autorites de l'endroit, nous avons été obligés de surseoir à ce projet en attendant la decision du Congres libérien. Nonolstant cet echec, nous avons la conviction que 99% de la population de Liberia attendent avec impatience l'arrivée de la U. N. L. A. pour aider au développement de leur pays. Nous regrettons infiniment due la mort est venue nous priver de la collaboration de feu le Magistrat J. J. Dosen. Il fut, à n'en pas douter, un des hommes les plus-provoyants, un des patriotes les plus celaires de Liberia. Esprit large et perspicace, il ne n'issrait aucune jalousie contre ceux qui desiraient supporter leur part de contribution au bien-être de son pays et de sa race. Il est profidement à regretter qu'il puisse setronver des personnes de la race qui s'entre-jalousent tellement, quelles n'hesitent pas a bloquer les efforts tenets per d'autres pour aller la situation de la masse et hater le développement des pays negrés. Nous n'allons pas nous en chagrin, pourtant; car il reste le beaucoup à faire dans le sens du développement industriel et commercial de notre peuple. Nous nourrissons la conviection que cette même Angleterre et cette même France à qui le Président King a voulu plaire en bloquant l'ocuvre la U. N. L. A., seront les nèmes qui vientront au secours de la race lorsque nos revendications auront convenablement presentes à la Ligue des Nations. Nous ne doutons pas pour un instant qu'à la prochaine session de la Ligue des Nations, lorsque nous aurons renforcé la petition d'elle a été saisie depuis tant deux ans de la signature des 20 millions de négres de l'Afrique, de l'Amerique et des Antilles qui avaient contribu dans une certaine mesure à l'heureuse issue de la Grande Guerre, cette Assemblée, y compris la France et l'Angleterre, ne manquera pas de faire acte reciprocité et de Justice, en concedant en dehors de Liberia, des territoires ou le noir pourra se reconstituer une entité politique et démontrer son aptitude au self-development et au self-government. C'est tres curieux, tout de même, comme le noir s'entrave soi-même pour faire plaisir aux autres. Les aviateurs déclarent que leur *entative était un succès*, mais ils *n'essayerent pas d'émettre un avis* quant à son utilisation sur une grande celle. L'institut international de coopération intellectuelle On se souvient de l'offre générale du gouvernement français qui par l'intermédiaire de M. François Albert, ministre de l'instruction publique, a proposé de mettre à la disposition de la commission de coopération intellectuelle de la Société des nations les fonds et les locaux nécessaires pour la création à Paris d'un institut international de coopération intellectuelle. Acceptée avec enthousiasme par tous les membres de la commission de coopération intellectuelle, la proposition du gouvernement français et le programme du future institut, établie sur la demande de la France par M. Bergsm, vont être soumis au conseil de la Société des nations. Nous de la U. N. I. A. sommes on ne peut plus heureux de constater qu'en dépit de tout ce qui a été tenté pour nous barrer la voie, nous nous retroussons, en fin de compte, avoir fait de notables progrès vers le succès définitif. Aussi est-ce avec une joie et un contentement indicibles que nous annoncons le depart de notre premier bateau pour le dimanche 11 Janvier 1925, Dieu vousoul. Des personalités de la race voyageron à son bord pour aller visiter nos congenères de Cuba, Haiti, la Jamaïque, Panama, Bocas del Toro et Costa-Rica. Nous espions que de ces visites résultent des relations d'affaires plus etroites entre les industriels et les commerçants de la race. Au retour du bateau en février, une nouvelle excursion safaite vers la Guyane auglise, la Trinité, la Barbade et Vénizuela; ensuite on fera voile vers la cote occidentale d'Afrique. Toutes les personnes de la race desirant prendre passage à bord de ce bateau à la date du 11 Janvier son prix de s'intérêt immédiatement aux bureaux de la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, 54-56 West 135th street, New York City. Nous prions tous ceux-la qui n'ont pas encore souscrit à l'empirn de s'inscrire pour un coupon de $25-$500 afin de nous permettre d'effectuer le paiement des $25.000 qui sont dus pour solider les comptes de ce bateau. Qu'on se rappelle que plus nous aurons d'emprassement à liquider cette dette, plus il nous sera aisé d'obtenir la concession du second bateau pour lequel des negotiations sont déjà entamées. Nous prions également les noirs du Centre-Amérique, des Antilles et d'Afrique qui auraient des produits à céder de vouloir bien les wéserver pour cette Compagnie, parceque nous avons l'intention de commencer sous peu l'exploitation de denrées provenant des noirs pour importation aux EE. UU. Il n'existe aucune raison que nous sachions pour que les noirs des localités sus-nommies ne traficient avec leurs congenères sous les anspices de la B. C. N. & T. Co. Les sucre, café, cacao, cocoa et bananes cultives par les noires devraient former la base d'un commerce entre ces indigenes et les EE. UU. Bandons-nous ensemble pour le développement de relations commerciales inter-raciales. Nous, les millions qui avons été rapprochés par les liens d'une union spirituelle et fraternelle, sommes maintenant en mesure de contribuer mairiellement à la solution de nos problèmes particuliers. C'est pourquoi nous en appelons à tous pour qu'ils viennent en aide à B. C. N. & T. Co. Par une lettre daté du 20 août, rendue publique, M. Herriot, président du conseil, vient en effet de prier le. secrétaire général de la Société des nations de porter la proposition française à l'ordre du jour de la prochaine session du conseil. Le gouvernement français, écrit M. Herriot, entenda par ce geste prouver sa sympathie profonde et agissante en faveur des principes qui sont la raison d'être de la Société des nations. Par-dessus tout il affirmait son amour de la paix. La commission de coopération intellectuelle a bientuil témoigner dans un télégranme chaleureux qu'elle adressait à M. Francois Albert combien elle apprécie l'attitude du gouvernement et les sentiments de la nation française. Elle a donné un avis favorable à la proposition que lui transmittait son president. J'aid donc l'homme de prior le secretaire général de bien vouloir inscrire à l'ordre du jour de la prochaine session du conseil la question de la fondation à Paris de l'institut international de coopération intellectuelle. Offrez-vous un voyage dans l'Amérique du Centre. Voyager est un moyen de s'instruire d'étendre ses connaissances. Ceux qui n'ont pas encore eu le privilège de contempler les splendeurs naturelles des tropiques devraient profiter de cette occasion unique. Le bateau ne portera que des passagers de première classe.

A. lors du dernier Congrès, International tendant à s'intéresser activement, désormais, à la politique tant nationale qu'internationale sous les auspices de l'Union Politique Universelle des Noirs, la branche locale de New-York, à son meeting ordinaire de ceoir, des départie de son programme nusel des dimanches pour donner à quelques-uns des Candidates du bulletin national et étatiste l'occasion de faire connaître au public noir de quoi ils se réclament pour solliciter ses suffrages. Environ 5,000 personnes étaient presentes et congruent avec une attention marquée les discours de quelques-uns des Candidates du parti democratique, parmi lesquels Thonorable George Lunn, lieutenant-gouverneur de l'État de New York; Thonorable R. H. Weller, candidat à la deputation national, et Thonorable Thomas Churchill, candidat à tauteul de la Cour Suprême de l'État de New-York. L'honorable R. H. Welier fut le premier orateur. Il fit le résumé du record accompli par le parti républicain sous la présente administration. Il dit que le programme de la U. N. A. est la liberté des Noirs et qu'elle n'a pu l'obténir du parti républicain. "Ce parti, dit-il, n'offre rien; tandis que le parti democtatique offre tout." Ensuite le lieutenant-gouvernement Lann vint dénonce les tactiques de campagne employées par Mr Roussevelt, le candidat republicain aux fonctions de Gouverneur de l'État de New York. Il tit ressortir que Padministration actuelle de l'État de New York par Mr Alfred Smith ne laisse rien à desirer, économique, compétence, propriété, absence de scandale, tout y est réalisé. "On a célé l'a s'en rendre compte, dit-il, mais on est arrivé entin àetter conviction que la grande mase de nogens de couleur est plus sure d'obtenir des droits égaux sous une administration démocratique que sous une républicaine." COIN LITTERAIRE Le 17 Octobre fut le 118e anniversaire de la mort de Jean-Jacques Dessalines, fondateur de l'Indépendance haïtienne. Après la déportation de Toussaint l'Ouverture et son incarceration au fort de Joux, dans le Jura (France), ce fut Dessalines qui se charge de realiser la mémorable prediction du grand martyr: "En me renversant, on n'a abatu à Saint-Donningue, que le tronc de l'arbre de la liberté des noirs. Il repoussera; car ses racines sont nonbresuses, vivaces et profondes." Jean-Jacques Dessalines est un sur l'habitation Cormiers. Vie Caillé (Grande-Rivière du Nord), en 1758. Les historiens ne sont pas d'accord sur la date de sa naissance. Les uns disent qu'il est ne le 20 Septembre d'antres, le 3 février. Il y aurait lieu de croire que cette dernière date est la vraie. Sous le caractère empôte et violent qu'il avait contracté au contact des rigures de l'esclavage, il cachait un nature affectueux, noble et généreux. Même au cours de cette guerre à outrance, de cette guerre de represalles qu'il livrait aux ennemis de sa race, plus d'fois il se montra magnanime envers un adversaire tonbe en son pouvoir. Revoite contre les traitements inhumains auxquels soin maître L'assujetissait, il s'était octroye une liberté provisoire en se refugiant dans les bois, grossissant ainsi le nombre des negres marrons qui étaient la tergueur de la colonie agonisante. La haime implacable qu'il avait voué, des lors, aux blanes de race française. Nevenimait claque fois qu'il considernait les civrieurs dont son corps était convert par suite des fustigations qui lui avaient été administres. Dessalines, ne savait ni lire ni cire. Ce n'est que fort tard qu'il apprit à signer son nom. A la fois prudent et intrepide, il aimait rencontrer chez ses adversaires une brouvure sur moins égale à la sienne. Comme, Tous-saint, Dessallines avait convolte enjustes noeces. Mine Dessallines, de son prénom Louise, était d'une très grande beauté, d'après le teniogique qu'en rendu le grand écrivain français Victor Schelcher. Douce d'un bonte et d'une douceur sans égales, elle avait reuni autour d'elle, un grand nombre de jeunes filles que la guerre avait rendues, orphélines; aussi sa reputation était elle connue de toit le monde. Il arriva qu'un jour, invant desavant le massacre général des blanches, decrete par Dessalines, deux Français se presentent chez Mine Dessalines en prifiant de les préserver contre le courroux de son auguste epoxx. Sensible à cette requête, Mine Dessalines les invita à entrer mais la cabane n'est pas grande, elle n'est d'autre ressource que de le cacher sous son lit. Sur ces entières arrivée Dessalines. Il est pu ressortir sans être douce que son humble toit recelait des visuels insolites; mais l'un d'eux avant laissecéater un violent etermement, la cachette fut instamment depister Colere violente de Dessalines qui les avant trains hors de leur refuge, se disposit à les sabrer sans merci. Mais sa femme interceda si ooptement en leur faveur, que le tictur empereur cédant a ses instances, lui accerde la vie de ses protèges. Cette anecdote a été racontée par l'un des bénéficiaires: Descourtul, le grand naturaliste français. Un des premiers actes de cet esclave en accéder au trône de l'empire fut de rédiger un decret permettant aux Polonais de resider en sur sur le territoire juif, parce que «c'était des hommes » "ballenieurs et sans patrie." Sa mort tragique, suivvenue dans le guet-apens d'Pont-Rouge est une tache indébide pour le peuple dont il compléta la libération en la commandant d'independance et de soveraineté politiques. Seul, le noble instint de Défile, la folle heronique, a conservé aux Haitiens les cendres de ce grand homme. Le librateur dort aujourd'hui dans le mansole que lui dedia tenu le Président le G. Hippolyte. A ses cotés reposeut Charlotin Marcadieu, son fidèle beantent; et Défile, la folle recommaisante. Lhi-leiro a souligné avec beaucoup d'insistence l'attachement presque passionné de l'Empereur pour Petion. Nous savons que Petion était un elegant et beau cavalier. Une beauté aussi remarquable chez soi ami que chez sa femme semblerait indiquer que Dessalines fut un-shete; qu'il prisait la beauté plastique. Devons-nous croire que c'était la tout le charme qu'il trouvait à Petion? Dessalines l'aime tant qu'il veit remettre à l'avenir le procopeu. Quel est le mobile qui le guide? Il me semble que c'est dans le surnom qu'il donne à Petion qu'il faut rechercher le-charme potent qui l'a si puissamment seduit. Il l'appelle "Papa Borceour"; et Petion, on le sait, était d'une grande aménité de caractère. L'histoire a consigné le fait que, en réalisant l'union de sa DECLANATION DE L'UNIVERSELLE DES NOIRS A LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, DIMANCHE APRES MIDT L'import sur le revenu et les etrangers en France La publication, aux États-Unis, des listes de paiement de l'impôt sur le revenu, a donné aux autorités française une indication sur le moyen de determiner les revenus des américains résidant en France, dans le but de les taxer. Jusqu'à ce jour, les érangers réident en France ont joui du privilège de payer un impôt base sur une somme egale à sept fois le montant de leuroyer.

La reconnaissance de Cuba Pr. l'aide dominicaine Sur la proposition du Senateur Felix del Prado, le Senat de Cuba a voté une loi ouvrant au gouvernement un crédit de 100 mille dollars, pour l'errection d'un monument à St. Domingue, afin de perpetuer la reconnaissance de Cuba pour l'aide que lui apporterent les dominains, pendant la guerre de l'Indépendance.

D'autre part, si en recouillant chez elle tant d'orphélines, sans soutien, Mine Dessalines n'auras pas cru susciter à la maitre de son meignage une ménace perieuse, n'est-il par permis d'en déduire que son illustre epoux accordait à cette protection intempire, à cette multiple adoption. la sanction de son silence et l'adlièction de sa complicité; que, par consequent, c'était précisément cette pitie débordante qu'il cherirait le plus en sa femme?

LIBERTY HALL, NEJVYORK, Dipanche 26 October. Liberty Hall regorgait de monde à l'occasion du meeting populaire spécial qui avait été organisée aux fins d'exposer les bits et objectifs de l'Union Politique Universelle des Noirs. Il avait été également announce que l'honorable Marcus Garvey qui était récemment revenu d'une tournée dans le pays, déduitra les raisons qu'à l'Union pour appuyer la candidature de Mr Royal H. Weller, un blanc, à la réélection au Congrès, par opposition à celle du Dr C. H. Roberts, un Noir. « La question a été beaucoup débattue dans Harlem, depuis que la position du Negro World a été connu; et une coterie de Noir qui "conne les pauvres, sont toujours avec nous", s'empressa d'en faire une affaire de race puisqu'idemment il ne pouvait plus designer la U. N. I. A. comme étanche siege d'un fanatisme de race. Le thème de développement avec maitrise par Mr Garvey; son argumentation étant, chaleureusement appuyée par Louis Lavalle, avocat du barracle de New-York, qui définit le Dr Roberts comme étant un homme "dépourvu d'orgueil et de sentiment de race". L'honorable George E. Carter, secretaire-general de la U. N. I. A., et Sir William Sherrill, leader américain, en firent antuit. Mr Garvey demanda pourquoi avait-on désigné au choix de la communauté négre une personnalité aussi chétive; et recommanda à ses adherents de se rappeler que, pour eux, la question revêtait un carteré double: politique et économique. Il exprima fopion que si les noirs persistaient dans leur efforts pour mettre le Dr Roberts sur les dos de leurs employes blancs; eux, les noirs, se verraient forces sous peu de faire leurs paquets et d'aller ailleurs en quête de travail. En outre, ajouta-til, cela ferait naitre des inquietés sur ce que les Noirs se proposent de faire en Amérique et pourraient leur occasionner des torts immenses. Il termina en conseillant aux Noirs de se rendre industriellement forts, comme La fait le Juif, et de se mettre en mesure de distribuier des employés aux personnes de la race. La, dit-il, est le salut. ANECDOTE HAITIENNE "Messieurs. je vous excuse" Sous le gouvernement du général Nord Alexis, la circulation dans le quelle comprise entre le coté sud de Fancien Palais National et l'ancienne prison des femmes était interdite après six heures du soir. Un soir le Ministre de l'Empire d'Allemagne et le Représentant de la République française, revenant ensemble de pionnade, penserent naturellement que la consigne haitienne n'était point faite pour eux. Malgré les avertissements du factionnaire, feur voiture s'engagea dans le passage interdit. La sentinelle ne titit point usage de son arme et se contenta de jetter quelques pierres qui n'autoirient d'ailleurs par la vêture des diplomates. Aussi les Représentants des deux grandes Puissances, européennes exigérent des exceses du President de la République d'Haiti. En conséquence le general Nord Alexis leur accorde une audience officielle. Le President leur reprocha en terres très courtois, de n'avoir voulu tenir aucun compte de la défense qu'écait faite par la Police haitienne de circuler dans la rue après six heures du soir. Il leur dit très fermement qu'il adressait un double blame au factionnaire haitien, d'abord pour avoir jeté des pierres à des représentants de Nations étrangères amies; ce qui constituit un manque de courtoisie et d'égards; en suite pour n'avoir pas fait usage de son arme comme c'était son devoir. Enfin, continua je général Nord Alexis, tout est bien qui finit bien et "Messieurs, je vous excuse." Le champagne mousse dans les verres; et les ministres étrangers, souriant de la tournure française un peu bizarre qu'ils croyaient in volontairement employé par le Président d'Haiti, partirent satisfaits, salués par la marseillaise et l'Hymne imperial allemand. Mais ceci qui, sous carpe, rhlait le plus était engore le général Nord Alexis. - Le Noëliste. THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Marmalades Not Responding to Death at the Système We have received a letter from Mr. Renaill T. Brady, a valued member of the Association and a reader of the Marmalades World, who writes to say that the articles in the Negro World of Oct. 11 concerning the death of a man at the station in Camagoya and condemning his death and ill treatment by the authorities was entirely misleading. The most came to his death at the house of two Cubans who occupied the same house with him, all of them having been drinking heavily, who set upon him when he complained of the notice they were making which prevented him from sleeping. The authorities of Colonis Verdon of the Ver- 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' "Giands Awakened in One Day" is the Amazing Statement of a Seventy-six Year-Old Veteran.

An Ohio Member With The Will That Wins To the Editor of The Negro World. I am a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, belonging to a small division in Middletown, Ohio. I organized a legion, small in number. I have struggled hard to make this division what the aims and objects of the association stand for—one God, one aim and one destiny. Since I have learned the aims and objects of Mr. Garvey and knowing them to be the only salvation of the Negro. I determined to spend the rest of my life in the service of Africa's redemption. I spent eight years in the defense of "Old Glory." Now, I want to spend as many an God will allow in the service of Africa's redemption. Until we have a great free Africa my life will be only a dream. E. F. MAHAFFEY, Captain of Legion, Middletown, O. Cuban Sugar Planters And Their Workers To the Editor of The Negro World: Allow me space in The Negro World to tell you the way the Negro is treated and regarded in some parts of Cuba. Hon. Marcus Garvey, who has been doing such wonderful work in the eyes of its enemies, has awakened a bitter feeling of hatred of some of the white men towards the Negro. Some of them, being engineers, in Cuban mills, have been using their position to binder the Negro from earning bread. Having read The Negro World, they have learned of the determination of the Negro to have justice and fair plays. Now they have decided that the only course for them to take is to keep the Negro out of employment. Some days ago a West Indian Negro went in the Vertibutes sugar factory and asked the second engineer, a Spamalr1, for employment. The chemiat, who was near by, called him and advised him not to employ the Negro, as the Negroes are trying to build a government of their own in Africa. From that day he scarcely employed Negroes in the mill, although now and then he is compelled to admit one, when he cannot do better. Their idea keeping the Negro out of employment can only be maintained during the dull time, but when the crop starts it will be a complete failure. Their plan has taught some of the Negroes, who generally lavish out their money in sports during the crop, to put up their savings and make provision for the hard time, so that Nature's Way of Forcing the Hair to grow long, soft and healthy.

Hard Times for West Indiana Who Work, in Cuba I wish to show up the world how we are treated in this republic of Cuba. Being weak, we have no protection in Britishers. Here is our weak point. I was employed by a gentleman who was one of the best men in this republic for an poor Negroes. He found me faithful in his service. When he was about to leave he recommended me to the manager and chief as a very good cook. I then started on the first day of July with my new employer, with wages of $125 per month, to run the restaurant with an assistant cook at $25, to be paid by me. I worked for two months under the disadvantage of the restaurant chief. He did not want me to look for an assistant and he was not willing to send me any. He expected me to do the work of two persons, and at the end of each month, after receiving the amount of $125, I must give to him $25 or $30 out of that for his personal use. I refused on two pay days. He got in a rage and immediately discharged me, with a policeman, September 7. Having no one to complain to for justice, I took my chance and saw a lawyer for advice. He took up the case and told me I was entitled to a month's wages. On receiving a suit from the lawyer this is what the beast of a white man did. He went to all the heads of departments, telling them not to give jobs to any more Jamaicans because they would put them in law, and that they are forming a government in New York. So, then, may I here in the follow Jamaalans that Britain is not ruling in Cuba? As a whole we Jamaalans suffer very much in Cuba. May I say to all fellow Negroes, again, no keeping out of the fold of the U. N. L.A., no use criticizing it and its leader. One day sooner or later we have to fall in line, because conditions are growing worse daily with the Negroes. God bless Mareus Garvey! Long live the U. N. L.A.! W. G. NELSON. Member of Camaguey (Cuba) Division. Good and Faithful Workers in Cuba To the Editor of The Negro World: I will be more than glad if you can find me space in The Negro World so that the readers may know of the grand energy put forward by some of our men. Dr. Hubert Sully, the local organizer, is doing his utmost to see that all divisions come to a success. He is one I have seen putting his shoulders to the wheel. I, an old member and ex-office of the Georgetown Division, No. 387, an work glad to help any division that I may come across in my travels. Dr. Hubert Sully has been energetic in this division for the short space of time he has been able to get the people to secure a building whereby the meetings of the U. I. A. will be able to carry on. He has been working for this cause, suffering person and insult from propagandists. The energy of De Sull is a great that he was able to send forward to the parent body for fifty copies of the official organ, The Negro World. This is very good, as I know that when I was assisting the head organizer of Georgetown, Lemmon, to the person of George S. Primo, we suffered greatly, walking miles and defying hunger for this cause, and we could not get the people to subscribe to The Negro World in so short a time. Therefore, now that I have been elected executive secretary for this division, I feel that the organizer has done wonderfully. I make mention of these facts that my erilizing friends may see that they are not the time to talk, but to awake to the spirit of case consciousness and put on the armor of lasting energy and self-determination like this man and others and fight for your national rights. God takes no account of differences of color or rank.

C. — President Calvin Coolidge is well acquainted with conditions affecting the Negro in the United States at the present time. He knows what they need and what they want. He appreciates their ability and in doing all that he can to see that they get the recognition that is due them. In an interview Monday with a staff representative of the Associated Negro Press the President entered willingly into a discussion of what the Republican administration under him has undertaken in behalf of Negro citizens of the country and it is believed, according to statements made by the President, that as soon as he is able to act without injury to the business of the government, he will strike a blow at grievances which have caused many Negroes to complain. Mr. Coolidge is proud of the government hospital at Tuskegee and of the Negro's work there. He believes that recognition of the Negroes ability to handle such an institution will have a salutary effect all along the line in properly bringing forward the professional men of the race. It is pointed out that very few people realize the scene and importance of the Tuskegee Hospital. Recently changed from a tuberculous hospital to a general hospital in which all forms of disease shall be treated with the addition of seven specialists recently, to the staff which carries a personnel of 300 and serves over 600 patients, the plant which is the finest the government has yet erected and which cost $2,000,000, presents an achievement in which every Negro can feel an honest pride. The President also believes that the appointment of Walter Cohen to the position at New Orleans was a signal accomplishment for the Nogro rai and political recognition of the first water. More than that, it was a political victory. Under both President Taft and Rosevelt, similar appointments had been made, but in neither instance, although there was a Republican majority, had they been able to win the endorsement of the Senate making recess appointments. Forcing a hostile Senate, the President won the confirmation of Mr. Cohen. He hopes that Negroes will be disposed to remember also what his administration has done in the way of some diplomatic recognition of the Negro. For the first time in history, the Virgin Island Commission carried out a diplomatic mission for the United States. MAPS OF AFRICA MAPS OF AFRICA Every Negro should have a map of Africa in his home.

Although he is not disposed to dispense with the services of the so-called "Old Guard," he is happy to use everybody who can make themselves serviceable, having no ironbound rules excluding any group. He is glad that the young men of the race are thinking in terms of their country and of a larger measure of citizenship, rather than of jobs. The first consideration of President Coolidge seems to be the efficient conduct of the government as a business. Once that is assured, he hopes to turn his hand to the ironing out of difficulties in governmental service. SPECIAL OFFER ETHIOPIA WATCH CO.
