HOW NEGROES SHOULD CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS
FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting:
In another short while we will be celebrating the greatest of all anniversaries within the Christian realm, that of the birth of the MAN known to us as the Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Christmas is looked forward to with a joyous return, year by year, by millions of those who profess the Christian faith. It is one event that is somewhat universal. It comes at a time when civilized humanity resolves to make new arrangements for the work of the new year, and so we, the millions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Christians as some of us are, and Mohammedans others, do join the joyous crowd at this time of the year—if not to give thanks for the birth of Christ—to be a part at least of the great multitude who see salvation through the rearrangement of our own human affairs.
Universal Grasp
The grasp that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has upon Christian and Mohammedan is one and the same. The two Characters who are leaders in these two religions were Colored men; therefore, we should take special pride in worshiping at Their shrines. Jesus was disrated, spurned, abused, imprisoned and subsequently crucified, not because He was a Jew, but because He was a Colored man, and the one that answered to the description of the Son of God. It was the disappointment and the prejudice of those who expected some one in another personality than that in which Christ came that caused them to have insisted upon His crucifixion as a means of getting rid of the "imposter." The crucifixion of Christ was prompted by the same prejudice nearly two thousand years ago as prompts the mob that lynches the innocent Negro in Georgia, Texas and Mississippi of the United States today. We are glad, however, that the entire Christian world of all races has come to acknowledge the fact that the Saviour of all mankind is the Christ, the Black Man who was nailed on Calvary's cross for the redemption of our sins.
Celebrating Christmas
Yet, as we universally celebrate Christmas, we as Negroes are not going to forget that it should not be all amusement, frivolity and joy, but that we should inject into it, outside of its religious demands, that serious service to race which the Universal Negro Improvement Association has always demanded from its members everywhere. Let us not overspend ourselves riotously during this Christmas season. Let us not for the whole year put away all that we earn to spend it out in one day and then to wake up in the new year penniless, helpless and still dependent. In certain parts of the country and of the world it is the disposition of the Negro to dissipate all his wealth and earnings in the couple of days joy that Christmas brings. This has been an ancient mistake on the part of the race. We want our people to be more intelligently and soberly guided, and so, before Christmas actually comes, we want to warn each and every one not to fall a prey to the old custom and habit, but to let us use Christmas and the seasons thereof as inspirations for greater work and greater service to ourselves.
Looking Forward
We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are looking forward to 1925 as a helpful year in our effort

to reach the top. It can only become so by our disciplining ourselves to the kind of support that is necessary to bring good results. Instead, therefore, of dissipating all that we have financially during the Christmas season, let us carefully and economically spend but a part of what we have and use the other part for some good and useful purpose in the development of the race. No better purpose could be recommended to you than financial support to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, which is endeavoring, through the efforts of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, to herald in for the race a new commercial and industrial era. As Christ, our Brother, nearly two thousand years ago gave us a new Christian era that has become the guide and help of the ages, so the Universal Negro Improvement Association today brings to you a new industrial and commercial era, a foundation that we in the generation of the present must lay for the amelioration of the conditions of succeeding generations and for the general betterment of the race that is to follow. Every Negro during this season should rigorously retrench upon his expenditures and save a part of that which he would riotously spend to further loan to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company to help the Universal Negro Improvement Association to put over its plans. Where you contemplated spending $200.00 for Christmas, spend $100.00 and loan to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company the other $100.00. Where you anticipated spending $100.00, spend $50.00 and loan the rest. Where you anticipated spending $50.00, spend $25.00 and loan the rest to a good cause, and if each and every one of us in America, West Indies, South and Central America does this, we will not only emerge out of Christmas into a new year with better spirits but with sounder pockets and greater hopes to face the future as it stares.
I am also appealing to all those who can afford it in America to make every effort to see the West Indies and Central America aboard the first ship of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company that will sail away from New York on the 11th of January, 1925. This tourists' cruise is especially arranged for the benefit of those Negroes
in America who desire to see the beauties of the tropics during the winter months. The cruise will take 31 days. The ship will return to New York on the 7th of February, after having touched such important points as Havana, Cuba; Kingston, Jamaica; Colon, Panama; Port Limon, Costa Rica, and Bocas del Toro, Panama. Every Negro, as we have said before, who can afford to make the trip should do so. The S. S. Booker T. Washington is one of the best equipped ocean liners afloat. The ship is 5,300 tons. Her accommodations are of the best and most upto-date. The ship will be manned by an experienced group of White and Colored officers, men who have had years of experience in the service of other steamship companies. The Captain is an able Norwegian officer who has seen service in his country's merchant marine as well as the merchant marine of the United States. The passage to and fro on the cruise will be $350.00, first-class accommodation. Overworked professional men of the race and business men who seek recreation should take advantage of this trip. Husbands and wives who have never had a real good holiday should embrace this opportunity to make a cruise of the West Indies and Central America in 31 days.
Wonderful Cruise
Each section of the United States should be represented in this cruise, and it is expected that a goodly number of tourists will go from the Negro sections of Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Washington, Philadelphia, Boston, St. Louis and New York. Passages can be booked up to the 31st instant. No passports are necessary for those who intend to make the round trip. A limited number of passengers will be booked one way also to accommodate those who desire to go to the tropics and not return. In such cases passports must be provided before the passengers are booked, but for all tourists who intend to go and return on the trip in 31 days there will be no passports. Write immediately to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, 56 West 135th Street, New York City, and book your passage. Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association should ask their friends and acquaintances in the different cities to make this trip to Central America and the West Indies aboard our ship. We are willing to accommodate any and everybody who desires to make the trip.
With very best wishes for your success. I have the honor to be
UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. DETROIT, MICH. December 9, 1924.
P. S.—All members, Branches and Divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are hereby requested to make all possible efforts to become financial with the Parent Body, closing up the accounts of the old year. All members should pay up their dues and all Divisions should see that their local officers make a proper report to have their Divisions financial by the 31st of December, 1924. We desire to enter the new year with clean accounts for each and every Division and each and every member. Everyone can help to make this possible,

‘The costs of our national and local gov-

close to $108 for each inhabitant of the

Tt ts an ominous fact that only the
natlowal government ia “reducing ite

about $1,000,008000 each year. The de-
pression that .evertook business, the
disaster experienced in agriculture, the
Jack of employment and the terrific
shrinkage in all values which our
dountry experiences in a most acute
form tm 3930, resulted Inno small
‘measure from the prohibitive taxes
which were then levied om all produc-
Uve effort.” ‘The establishment of a

SO SAYS HON. G. E. CARTER IN WONDERFUL SPEECH ON "GETTING OUT OF THE RUT"—THE MEMBERSHIP OF THE U. M. L. A. HAVE GOTTEN OUT OF THE RUT—ARE DOING THINGS THAT ARE CALCULATED TO BRING A WORLD OF GOOD TO ALL NEGROES
Men and Women Who Are Determined Cannot Be Defeated or Turned Away From the Path of Duty—Garvey Is Thinking Different From the Oldtime Leaders—His Wisdom Has Accomplished a Steamship Line for Negroes
NEGROES NEED NOT BE THE CREATURES OF THEIR ENVIRONMENT—MUST STAND UP LIKE MEN AND CARVE A NEW WAY IN THE WORLD—THE PRINCIPLES OF THE U. N. L. A. WILL TRIUMPH
LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, December 7. Liberty Hall was alive with enthusiasm tonight and the two thousand or more members and friends of the New York local who attained manifested, by their moral and financial support, their loyalty and devotion to the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association which they have so gallantly upheld during the passing years and to which they have everlastingly pledged themselves to support until the program shall have been put over.
In the absence of the President-General, Hort. Marcus Garvey, the meeting was presided over by Hon. G.A. Weston, First Vice-President of the New York local. The meeting was much enlivened by the presence of a new band of music under the direction of Mr. Saltus, who voluntarily gave his services and those of his men in order that the patrons of Liberty Hall might be suitably entertained. This was brought about through the instrumentality of Mr. Jas. Brown, the newly elected chairman of the Board of Trustees, whose plans for the New York local promise to bring new life into the organization.
Hon. G. E. Carter, secretary-general, was the first speaker. He spoke on the subject of "Getting Out of the Rut," and characterized the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association as a class of Negroes who, figuratively speaking, had "gotten out of the rut," in that they were following a line of advanced thought that was distinct and at the same time calculated to do a world of good for all the Negroes. Said he, "If this race of ours is to accomplish the purpose for which it has been created, we have got to get out of the rut; to get out of the rut calls for thinking, and thinking calls for action, and action will beget for a race and the individuals that race something well worth having in the affairs of mankind." He urged the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to use their thought in such a way that the world shall know that they possess a power that will not down; a power that is sufficient to overcome every opposition and enable them to go through in such a way that the world will realize that men and women who are organized and determined, cannot be successfully defeated or in any manner turned away from the path of duty.
Hon. G. A. Weston, in a brief address, took issue at a statement recently made at a public meeting, that "The Negro is a product of his environment." It is not so much the environment, he said, that shapes the individual, but it is whether the individual will submit to his environment. In support of his contention, he cited the Hon. Marcus Garvey as an example, who, he said, was born in an adverse environment but refused to become a part and parcel of that environment and struck out into the world to reach out for a national home and for the emancipation of a race. Continuing, he said that no matter what the surroundings of the Negro in the United States or in the West Indies or in other parts of the world may be, they should not subject themselves to their environment but stand up like men and carve a new way in the world and reach out and take hold of an ideal and objective and carry on in the face of opposition.
Following is the text of the speeches:
The Gland That Causes Men To Get Up at Night
The gland that causes getting up at night is known as the prostate and is a motorous trouble maker. It is estimated that sixty-five out of every 100 men past forty, and many under that age, have prostate trouble, 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 pains 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. Anybody wishing to prove the value of the formula can get a full-size, two-dollar treatment of the pills under a money-back guarantee by sending the attached coupon to the address given therein. If you prefer, you can pay the postman two dollars and postage on delivery, instead of sending the money with your order. In any case, if you report within ten days that you are not entirely satisfied, the purchase price will be refunded at ease, upon request. This is a thoroughly reliable company, so you need not hesitate about ordering the rexx if you need it.

HON. G. E. CARTER SPEAKS
Hon. G. E. Carter, secretary general, spoke as follows:
I want to talk to you tonight on a very commonplace subject. The thought was suggested to me as I scanned the New York American this morning and looked at the editorial page. There was a most wonderful picture, to my mind. It showed a line of individuals from all walks of life who were trudging, as it were, forward; but as they went forward the rut in which they were travelling became deeper and deeper. And then there was one striking thing about the whole picture. There was a young man who had long atrides and a gladaon smile upon his countenance; he had climbed out of the rut and he was moving on in another direction, and one of the individuals paused in the rut and called to him: "How did you do it? How did you get out of the rut?" And he said: "I climbed out and moved on."
Getting Out of the Rut
There is a wonderful lesson for us who are,members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Not only is there a lesson for us who are in the association, but there is a lesson for all Negroes, because it is a fact that for hundreds of years we have been moving in the same rut, and everyone who came upon the stage of action to do anything at all for the advancement of this particular race of ours usually moved in the same rut. No one dared to advance a thought that was distinct and at the same time calculated
to do a world of good for all the Negroes. The chief object sought by the leaders who came previous to five years ago was to get a number of Negroes together and start them in a certain direction, and as long as that set of Negroes would go and accomplish that thing which that one Negro had in mind, he would be perfectly satisfied and the rest of the world could go to Hades. But if this race of ours is to accomplish the purpose for which it has been created, if it is to achieve the 'things whereby we can call for distinction because of our achievements, surely we have got to get out of the rut; and to get out of the rut calls for thinking; and thinking calls for action, and action will beget for a race and the individuals of that race something well worth having in the affairs of mankind.
The Nearest in the World War
When the World War was declared the white man was determined and satisfied that he could settle the war without having any Negroes in it, and he did essay to accomplish something without the Negro. But when the German proved too much for the Allied forces, then it was that the Allies realized the fact that the real power and force, so far as fighting was concerned, rested, not in their fair sons, but rather in the black men of their colonies and their possessions. And, thinking in that direction, they called upon the black men from the West Indies; they called upon the black men from the colonies in Africa. And then, when America joined the ranks, she took up the same kind of cry, that the Allies had and she said, "We will fight this war without the American Negro." But when the battle got hot, and when the German did not respect the American any more than he did the English, any more than he did the French, the Americans said, "We better fall back on that power and force which we know will bring the bacon home." As a result of falling back upon that power, she began to insist and to train her men. She had been training the white man anywhere from six months to a year in camp, but she hustled the Negroes in camp, trained them only for thirty to ninety days, and sent them over the sea; and when she sent them over there, then it was that Negroes, realizing that they were fighting for that which they believed to be a principle, did something in a distinctive manner, and they did it in such a way as to convince the world that the Negro had in him a wonderful power, and all that power needed was simply something by way of manning it. What was the result? The Negro proved himself equal to the task and the World War went into history with this one thing as a recorded fact: that the Negroes, wherever they came from, who took part in the World War, covered themselves with glory.
The Call tionhood
As an outcome of that World War there came upon the scene of action a certain individual who had got out of the rut and who happened to be born in the island of Jamaica. He had climbed out of the rut. In his thinking he was above every other Negro that had ever come upon the stages of action, and that Negro saw the necessity of sending a call that would reach around the world and say to all black men, "You have fought for world democracy; now link up and muster your courage and begin to fight a little bit for your own nationhood." Some of the Negroes heard that call; thousands, yes, millions, of them still are walking along in the rut. But God is to be praised, and you are to be given the glory that some men and some women, yeas about six million of them, in America and the West Indies, have had their eyes opened and they have jumped out of the ruts of life and they make up the advance guard going forward to accomplish something in the interest of nation building. That you represent the advance guard is something worthy of commendation; and the proof that you are in the advance of the other Negroes is to be found in the opposition that you have encountered from time to time.
The Pioneers of Advanced Thought
Friends, don't you know that to be a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association makes you a marked woman or a marked woman? Everybody knows you, and when you face the world you may rest assured that the people look upon you as having some advanced thought.
Let me give you a concrete illustration to substantiate that position: The President-General, Hon. Marcus Garvey had an invitation from the North Harlem Forum to address them at their place of meeting last Wednesday night. Mr. Garvey, as you know, was out of the city, and he sent me. In the let-
ter that they wrote him they asked him to come and talk on "The Negro and World Peace," and they undercovered the words, "We want your views." The President of the council in introducing me said that the forum was in the habit of having men with all kinds of views come to them who were Radicals, Anarchists and everything else. That was a suggestion to those who were present that they were going to Have some radical views because the Secretary-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was present. However, I did the best I could. I carried along with me "The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," and I quoted from that book very largely and laid the foundation. In that gathering of men you could easily see and understand that they looked for something quite different from the ordinary, coming from a representative of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.
Since you are somewhat different from the other Negroes because of your thought, I am saying to you, use your thought in such a way that the world shall understand and know that you possess a power that will not down; a power that is sufficient to overcome every opposition; a power that will say to the world, "You can put everything in my way, but in spite of your outting, we will be able to go through in such a way that the world will realize that men and women who are organized and determined, cannot be successfully defeated, or in any manner turned away from the path of duty."
Garvey Had the Right Vision
I want you to think, and because you are thinking people, I am talking to you in this strain. To prove that the Hon. Marcus Garvey had the right vision, and that he was different from the other Negroes in the thought that he advanced—all the other Negroes had sought to get the Negroes together in a national way, but Marvus Garvey began to think about Africa, and when he thought about Africa he had to think different from any other Negroes. Prior to that, Negroes who thought about Africa only thought about sending a few missionaries there with a hymn book and a Bible and a pint, of something else in the ship pocket; they always carried something in the hip pocket to keep away the fever—so they told you and me; but they hit this so frequently that it was more likely that it gave them the fever than kept away the fever. So they thought they would go in with this idea; but Marcus Garvey came on the scene and he realized the fact that the best way to get to Africa was for Negroes to become interested in the things that would carry them across the waters. He knew that millions of Negroes could not swim across the Atlantic; he knew very well they couldn't build railroads to span the ocean, so thinking ahead of the other Negroes he conceived the idea of a shipping line, and everybody who knew Marcus Garvey began to poke fun and accuse at him, and say that Negro is crazy, who ever heard of Negro running a steamship line! But Marcus Garvey is not as crazy as you thought him to be, because he knew very well that if Africa was to be redeemed, certainly the natives should be stirred and you cannot reach the natives of Africa by sending white missionaries over or a few men and women who go into representing the white man's interests rather than the truth. So, he had in mind a plan that would so stir Africa up, that the natives would become awake and when they became awake they would stand up like awakening giants and begin to stretch forth their hands, and in the soil—thing forth of their hands there would come a mighty power, and this power would expel the ingenious alien people from its shores. He was thinking ahead of others, and in this thinking they sought to defeat him and they did everything to destroy the idea; they succeeded in putting him in jail and, at the same time they thought that by putting him in jail they would put out the life of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. But thought will not be downed by men who are not capable of producing a thought. Thought has in the life the power of revealing to the world the secret belofts in the hearts of men; and in this thought there came forth another determination, and as a result of the suspension of the Black Star Line there came into being the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. Out of the rut he began to climb, and being out of the rut he took with him men and women, and on the 13th day of August $30,000 out of the pockets of black men and women were invested in another ship; $30,000 in cash was put into the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, and we paid the first sum on the contract. From that time up to the present $65,000 have been paid by you. Now, only thinking Negroes could do that kind of stuff. Being out of the rut we are determined to put it over, and I am appealing to you in Liberty Hall tonight to rally to the cause and do your share in putting over the program.
MR. BROWN PLEADS FOR CO-OPERATION
Mr. Brown, the newly elected chairman of the board of trustees, made a few brief remarks in which he told of certain plans he had inaugurated and others which he had in mind for the good of the organization and made an appeal for the support and whole-hearted co-operation of the members in the efforts that word being made to put over the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.
MON. G. A. WESTON SPEAKS
The last speaker web Men. G. A. Weston, whose remarks were directed toward commenting on a statement made recently at a public forum that "The Negro is a product of his environment." "It is not so much the environment," said Mr. Weston, "as the environed." There was no more corrupt civilization than the one in which Jesus Christ lived, and yet he was not the product of his environment; he carved a new pathway and proved himself to be not subject to environment because he realized that it is not so much the environment that shapes an individual, but it is whether the individual will submit to his environment. Marcus Garvey, the speaker said, was born in an adverse environment, but he refused to become part and parcel of that environment, and so he struck out into the world to reach out for a national home and for the emancipation of a race.
Carving a New Path
Continuing, Mr. Weston said: Too many of us are willing to render eye service as against idealism. Only two Sunday nights ago I heard from this rostrum the president general himself declare that "Marcus Garvey will die, but the principles of the Universal Neo-Gro improvement Association must live on." Do you know why these principles must live on forever? It is because an individual who was environed refused to be subject to his environment and struck out and carved a new path and left the footprints on the sands of time in order that posterity may follow therein. It proves to you, there-
Legion Notes of Interest
Legion Notes of Interest
By MAJOR H. VINTON: PLUMMER.
Adjutant General
We are in receipt of a very flattering report by Brig. Gen. Jacob D. Chambers, president of East St. Louis division, No. 226, of the interest taken in the work by the various uniformed units. He reports the Black Cross Nurses doing excellent work and are receiving regular instruction in first aid work and nursing.
We are sorry the nurses are to lose the services of their efficient leader, Mrs. S. C. Johnson, who has had twenty-five years' practical experience as a trained nurse. Her services rendered to the unit is commendable. The appointment of Cohnel S. L. Stubbs as colonel of the regiment is a good one, he having the former training in the United States army. He will be communicated with officially in a few days.
What is the matter with Springfield, Ohio, uniform ranks? Co-operation under constituted authority will surely bring you out on top. The uniformed units or legions are only a part of the membership of a division, chapter on branch and therefore should not and can not interfere in any way with the regular work of the division under its president. The president of a division is ex-officio a brigadier general of the uniform units, and should have the cooperation of his staff and line officers who have actual command of the companies or units, respectively. The president of a division does not attempt to interfere with the actual drilling or training of the men or women of the uniform ranks; that is left to his comnels, captains, lieutenants, sergeants, corporals and instructors in the drill manual and first aid training. But, on the other hand, the president of a division has a general supervision over all units for the good and welfare of his division and he alone is held responsible to the president general of the U. N. L. A., keeping in mind that all members of the uniformed units are still members, financial members of the division. Let's have peace at this time not war, that may come later.
Sergeant Major Nibbett of Columbus Ohio, Division No. 152, sends in a splendid account of its Legion's meeting in Liberty Hall on last Sunday. An excellent program was rendered, with Leutenant Earl Goldman master of ceremonies. After selections by the Universal Rand, an appeal, for the Motor Corps was led by Mrs. Minnie Walls and by Mrs. Margaret Bryant, head of Black Cross Nurses. The executive secretary of the division, Mr. V. D. O. Christian, spoke on "Bronte Love," and Sergeant Major Nibbett on "The Use of Soldiers," Mr. Utah Johson, executive secretary from the Midtown Division, was a welcomes visitor, and addressed the meeting, Mr. Z. G. Burroughs, president of the division, is to be congratulated on his executive ability in creating the interest and unity that he has in his division, and especially among the uniformed ranks.
Baton Rouge, LA. Division No. 489,
has been heard from. The uniform
ranks will hear from headquarters in
a few days.
We are glad to see old Homestead,
Pa., uniform ranks come up to the
front. Success to you. Captain R. H.

Westfield, quartermaster sergeant.
Many requests have been made for
drill regulations by the many units.

The Triumph of the H..N..J.A.
The Trump of the U. N. I. A.
So that no matter what the world says about the Universal Negro Improvement Association, no matter how they crack their ribald jeets at Marcus Garvey and the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, one of these days, as they throw their ribald jeets at Booker T. Washington, and as they cracked their ribald jeets at Frederick Douglas when he caused the foundation of two continents to quake under the weight of his oratory and laid the foundation for the emancipation of the Negroes in this country, so will Marcus Garvey and the ideals of the Universal Negro Improvement Association triumph and men and women will be rocking to those ideals.
In conclusion, Mr. Weston said there are men and women in the Universal Negro Improvement Association that have not "bent the knee to Baal," knowing that they would by so doing destroy the ideals and objectives of this great movement, because they realize that never in the history of the world has an anyman been offered to Negroes until the ideals and objectives of this great institution came into being. There are men and women, he continued, in

C.—Before the largest audience ever assembled at a Howard-Lincoln game in Washington, loyal followers of the two outstanding colleges in America specializing in the training of colored youth, Lincoln broke the 6-to-6 tie of last year at Philadelphia. Pa., by an overwhelming victory of 31 to 6.
The invaders brought down a smooth-working machine from Pennsylvania, which was headlined by the inimitable "Jazz" Byrd, the greatest broken field runner to "strut" the gridron since the days of "Fritz" Pollard. The "Bison" were equally spectacular in the variety and effectiveness of plays, but were unable to match the "Lion" in the speed of their backfield offense or in the power of their forward line.
Lincoln scored in every period except the final quarter. In the first quarter, after Howard had held Lincoln for down on her six-yard line and Dodson had pointed out of danger to his forty-yard line, Goodman, Lincoln, heaved an eighteen-yard forward pass to Lancaster, who traced across the goal line for the first touchdown. Crudup added the extra unit by a placement kick.
In the second quarter, after a touchdown was ruled out because Crudup had stepped out of bounds, Goodman tossed a pass to Crudup, who was brought down on Howard's one-yard line. Taylor took the ball over. Crudup too made the count 14 to 0. Three minutes late Lancaster picked up a fumble on Howard's forty-seven-yard line and sprinted across the goal line. Another goal after touchdown made the count 21 to 0. Lincoln was holding Bird, their star performer, in reserve for the second half.
Immediately after the second score in this quarter, McLean received the kick-off for Howard and ran it back thirty-eight yards. He was brought down by Byrd, the safety man, after eluding the entire forward defense. Two passes, McLean to Braden, netted forty-seven yards and planted the pick-skin on Lincoln's one-yard line. An off-side penalty against Howard at this point robbed the "Bison" of an almost sure touchdown.
In the third quarter: Lincoln added 10 points to her total in way of the placement kick route by Crudup from the twenty-two-yard line and a spectacular end run of forty-nine yards by Byrd. Crudup kicked the final point from placement with Byrd holding the ball.
Many substitutions were made by both teams in the fourth quarter. Howard's players seemed to recover their pulse and fought off every attempt of the Lincolnites to score. Byrd made two sensational runs during this period, but Howard's new end was too alert to let him break through. The final score was: Lincoln, 31; Howard, 0. Byrd and Lancaster excelled for Lincoln, while McLean and Brooks stood out for Howard.
After the game the Howard rabblers formed a "solid phalanx and marched around the field several times in order to demonstrate to the multitude that the "good old Howard spirit" still survived in defeat as well as in victory.

A BLACK. MAN WHO HAS CONQUERED WITH THE
WITCHERY OF SONG 7
TN ARNEGIE HALT. is a large place, but it was none too large
( for the multitnde that gathered Friday night, November!28,
to hear Roland Hayes sing. In all that vast auditorium
we saw just two vacant seats, whose destined occupants were prob-
ably: ton sick to get to the hall. The parquet flour was filled, the
* three balconies were filled, afd the stage itself was so crowded that
there was hardly room for the singer and the piano,
We tonk our seats some time before the program began, thus we
had a good lock at the audience, We saw them filing in, people
froma all the hiziter, walks of life, people with every racial strain in
this cosmopolitan city. .“Editors, critics, artists, bakers, brokers,
society leaders, all were coming to sit for two hours and hear a
young black man sing. Our thinds flew, back over the years, Two
decades ago such an audience could not have beeit collected to see
a Negro atiempt serious art. For’clog dancing, banjo playing, or
blackface comedy, yes; but not to hear classical music from a: black
mouth. In that day.a Roland, Hayes would have had to waste ‘his
sweetness on’ the’ desert air. In spite of discouragements here.and
there, the public attitude toward the Negro has changed decidedly.
‘These well-bred, whispering thousands—would to God that John
Brown and Garrison had lived to bee tem .
Suddenly the whispering was drowned in a wave of applause.
Roland liayes appeared on the stage, grateful and springy and too
healthily black to be‘called anything but a Negro,
He began with a Bach song and followed it with Beethoven,
‘Biandel, Brahms and Schubert, all great names,in German music.
He was applauded again and again, arid he deserved it. The Ger-
man language is very difficult for a non-German to sing. Its chief
sounds are rough"consonants which can hardly be made"to sound
‘musical, and its dipthongs are difficult to- pronounce and more dif-
ficult ‘to sing. Roland Hayes with his soft, rich -voice, took the
harshness “out of the’ consonants better than. anyone we had ever
heard, Even he, however, had a little: trouble with the: “ch,” which
we defy any sigger, even a German, to make musical, Words ‘like
“doch, auch and nicht” are not meant for singingx Long before
the late wae when there was no violent anti-German feeling, one
“ot our professors at college said, “When you seek. clarity, talk
French; in-singing, use- Italian; woo your-sweetheart in Spanish;
‘when you shout at’your horse or dog, speak. German.” All the more
honor to Roland Hayes, that he can sing sweetly in such a language.
-: The next‘part of the program brought even more applause than
‘the first. Two songs made from Shakespeare's lyrics, one of them’
‘fhe famous “Blow, Blow, Thou. Wintry Wind,” were very well re-

It is difficult for any nation to outrage the decent opinion of the

Great Britain has not only flouted the Geneva Protocol but it has
given notice’ to the League of Nations that while it appeals to it to
confirm what it has done in Egypt it will not tolerate interference.
It claims rights in Egypt whicly are easily subject to dispute, and
which Egyptian radicals do dispute, sich rights as other small and

cisely at the place it was before the World War made scraps of
paper of international treaties and "good faith of nations. We are
right back where a.small spark may kindle a great war.
Great Britain, France, Italy and .Spaif’ are all having trouble with
their African subjects, because their Africari subjects have been
aroused to the fact that the white.man’s primary aim is, to conquer
and rule them for civil and economic advantages in which their
tights and interests are ignored. France, pethaps? ig the best. and
most generous: of tketn all in her colonial policies,’ but even this
fairness is being questioned of late, which places the French ad-
ministration on the defeasite. ; oud
The Universal Negro Improvement Association believes that agi-
tation is the breath of social, civil and economic life, and that ‘each
peaple is entitled to rule itself and enjoy all of the advantages of
its social, civil and economic life. There is no more reason why
white Americans and Europeans should rule and tax without rep-
wesentation Africans and Asiatics than that these should rule and
tax white Americans and Euwopeans. The rule that works only one
way and always against the one in favor-of the other is a had and
dangerous rule. ‘The white races. do not think so in their, dealing |
with Africans and Asiatics. “The necessity is thus created of show-
ing them that the rule is wrong and can only be made to work by
the law of might, which is seldom right, and always breaks down
ia the long run. .

On the 4th of November, the case of Captain E. L. Gaines, against the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in which he sued the association for $12,208.26, was called before Mr. Justice Ford in the Supreme Court in the County of New York.
Mr. Taussig, of Mosars, Avery, Taussig and Flake, represented the plaintiff, and Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, represented the defendant organization.
Captain Gaines sued the organization, claiming that he was entitled to a maximum salary of $3,500.00 per year. The association disclaimed the liability, stating that Captain Gaines held office at a minimum salary as was voted by the convention of 1921.
The trial continued through the 18th, 19th, 20th, to the 21st. Much against the charge of the learned judge, the jury, who seemed to be prejudiced against the association, brought in a verdict for $6,608.44 for Captain Gaines. The association is appealing against the judgment.
Following are the summations of Mr. Tausig and Mr. Garvey, representatives of plaintiff and defendant, respectively, and the charge of the judge. In another issue of this paper we will publish the testimony on both sides:
E. L. Gaines vs. Universal Negro Improvement Association.
Mr. Garvey's Address to the Jury Gentlemen of the jury:
I do not intend to weary you with a long summation, because you have listened carefully and attentively to the testimony in the case before you for trial. You are the absolute judge of this case, but before you make up your minds I want to impress you with the seriousness of the situation, in that the defendant in this action is not merely a commercial defendant, but is a defendant with a spiritual object, and this plaintiff was a member of this defendant and so to serve this defendant and abide by its constitution and laws, not only by lip service, but with his whole life, fortune, and all that he had in him, he swore to give it to the defendant in this case.
The constitution that is in evidence reveals that the promise of the association explains the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, as "to social, friendly, humanitarian, charitable, educational, institutional, constructive and expansive society, and is founded by persons desiring to the utmost to work
for the general uplift of the Negro peoples of the world. And the members pledge themselves to do all in their power to conserve the rights of their noble race and to respect the rights of all mankind, believing always in the Brotherhood of Man and the Fatherhood of God. The motto of the organization is, 'One God, One Alm, One Destiny.' Therefore let justice be done to all mankind, realizing that if the strong oppresses the weak, confusion and discontent will ever mark the path of man, but with love, faith and charity towards all, the reign of peace and plenty will be heralded into the world and the generations of man shall be called blessed."
I will read briefly the objects of the association in the same constitution, Section 8, "Objects and Aims":
"The objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League shall be: to establish a Universal confraternity among the race; to promote the spirit of pride and love, to reclaim the fallen, to administer to and assist the needy, to assist in civilizing the backward tribes of Africa; to assist in the development of independent Negro nations and communities, to establish commissionaries or agencies in the principal countries and cities of the world for the representation and protection of all Negroes, irrespective of nationality; to promote a conscientious spiritual worship among the native tribes of Africa; to establish universities, colleges, academies, and schools for the racial education and culture of the people; to conduct a world-wide commercial and industrial intercourse for the good of the people, to work for better conditions in all Negro communities."
Gentlemen, for me to point out to you that we do not owe the plaintiff the amount claimed here, we desire to show that this plaintiff swore to abide by the constitution. In that constitution there is a maximum and minimum salary laid out by the law that governs each and every officer, and when this officer was elected on one occasion, and then appointed on another, he swore by an oath to abide by this constitution in which a minimum and maximum salary was laid down, and this was his oath: "I, E. L. Gaines, do solemnly and sincerely declare that I shall obedient to the constitution and by-laws of the Universal Negro Improvement: Association, and to the commands of the executive council. I shall obey, those in authority over me and perform all those duties assigned
go to the best of my ability. I shall uphold and support the Declaration of Rights. I shall not encourage the enemies of the cause of African Redemption. I shall refuse to associate with those who may be proven enemies of the cause of this organisation. I shall uphold its principles everywhere and at all times. The cause of this organisation shall come first to me in my deliberations. Should I fail this cause, may the Almighty Architect fail me in the purpose of life. To this cause do I pledge my life and my fortune for a free and redeemed Africa. Being therefore in possession of all my senses, I subscribe my name and endeavour myself in the presence of all those assembled and Almighty God to serve the Universal Negro Improvement Association faithfully. So help me God." E. L. Galnes, 1920, and again in 1921 and 1922, when he was appointed Minister of Legions under the new amendment of the constitution.
To expedite your conclusion, gentlemen, I prepared a tabulation of our claim. The general claim to the general denial, and the counter claim as a separate cause of action. You have heard witnesses testify to these various amounts that I will read to refresh your memory:
Items of payment claimed by defendant, United Nero Improvement Association, made to E. L. Gaines, plaintiff, including $1,666.66, counter claim:

I have also prepared an analysis showing the period of time that Gaines worked. He claimed before this court that we owe him salary as from November, 1920, to July, 1924; then he came on the stand himself and proved that he was paid up to January 15, 1922; so that we take absolutely no cognisance of any amounts he is claiming beyond January 15, 1922. We are basing our defense on monies we have paid him from January 15 to June 15, 1924, when he was dismissed from the association.
That is clearly understood, I feel sure, in the minds of the jury, that he admitted himself that Garcia, who made entries, came and said Gaines was paid up to January 15, 1922. His attorney got him to state on cross-examination that he was paid up to January 15, 1922; so there is absolutely no dispute about our owing him anything so touching the period before January 15, 1922; so that you will focus your minds on his employment to us.
o from the 10th of January, 1898, to
the 18th of June, 1924.
Now, gentlemen, we have raised the question as supported by our constitution in evidence about the maximum and minimum. We have also allowed you that in 1931 a law was passed by the convention fixing the salaries of officials at a maximum and a minimum, and this man swore, and took the oath after that law was passed to abide by the constitution; and again in September, 1933, he in the executive council, as a member, agreed to by the unanimous adoption of a resolution that the law should apply to and affect his salary, and all the other officers, as from the time the law was passed; so Games owes us money, even though in 1931 and 1932, under the minimum, because he was paid above, the minimum from 15th up to the time of the 15th of January, 1922, so that, when we come to calculate, you have to figure and see whether by law, by right, by justice, this defendant is entitled even to more consideration than we are claiming, in that the man himself, apart from the resolution, agreed to the terms of employment.
With men of the type of Gaines, Garcia, DeBourg and Anderson, do you wonder that Marcus Garvey stands convicted before you wherein he is head of the organization wherein such men are members who take money, spend it, and do not report? Can any corporation exist? And if a corporation falls for taking people's money, who is held responsible but the head of the organization? Is he not held responsible for the conduct of those subordinates? When he is hailed before the court, what will the court say? The subordinate is not responsible—the president should have acted. And you heard the lawyer question the witness on the stand and ask him if he was convicted for using the mails to defraud. It is no wonder if tomorrow morning that Marcus Garvey is indicted for using the mails to defraud.
What account can Galnes give for the wilful dissipation and waste of the people’s money for which he is held responsible? He can resign. But can Garvey resign? Garvey has to remain and face the battle—five, ten or twenty years—after such aoundreels are gone. And if Garvey he indicted twenty years from now, what apology can he make to the court—that Ganes was there in 1920 and pocketed the people’s money and said I got it? Can I give that excuse to the court and the jury if I was indicted twenty years from now? This analysis, gentleman, if the court will permit, I will give for the convenience of the jury, shocking the facts of the defense as laid before you. We have arranged here a maximum at $3,000 per year from November, 1920, to June 15, 1924, at $3,000. We have also arranged a minimum for the same period, which would be $1,500 from November, 1920, to June, 1924. Then we again have a maximum from November 1, 1920, to August 81, 1922, at $3,000; and then a maximum of $3,500 from September 1, 1922, to June 15, 1924, to suit his convenience, so that you will be able to arrive at a conclusion by having something to work on. And then we have a statement showing you the minimum for that period; and then we show $3,000 from 1920 to September, 1923, when he took up office in Chicago as president of the Chicago division, remaining so from December 23 to June, 1924; so that he did work as minister of legions up to December, 1923, and then as president of Chicago to June, 1924. You will have all that before you to come to a proper conclusion. We have given you the maxi-

mum and the minimum rate, therefore, so that you can find either for the defendant in the one way or the plaintiff in the maximum as shall be proved to you.
Now, gentlemen, the question' of the constitution came up, and we want to bring that before you, because this is really, where, you have to decide whether this man is entitled to a maximum or a minimum. We have read to you the amendment to the constitution again in 1921: 'The order of the day (August 19, 1921. continued). Honorable R. Austin, of Brooklyn, N. Y., sponsored the following resolution: 'Be it resolved, That the salaries of all elected members to the positions of officers in the high executive council be regulated at a minimum and a maximum. The minimum to be fifty per cent less than the maximum. That said officers shall commence their duties at the minimum salary, which shall be raised from time to time, according to the com

two or three years hence. Look at Garcia, who had the books of the corporation in his hands, issuing a loan book for himself without telling anyone about it. He did not make it out until when he was going so he could sue the organization. Men who have sworn their lives, their fortunes, their all, to uphold the constitution of the organization.
I feel, gentlemen, you have hardly any doubt about these minutes. The constitution speaks for itself, the same constitution in evidence is the law. The State of New York may pass a law, the law probably has been passed since 1922. Simply because it is not circulated if you should violate the law do you think it would mean that you are not liable to the jurisdiction of the court. The law is there, and it is the law under which you are governed, so that is immaterial, and I trust you will pay absolute no attention to it whether it was printed in The Constitution of 1921, 1922, or 1923, or 1930. It is immaterial, the fundamental law is there.
The power of the President-General was questioned. What right had he to dismiss Gaines or do other things. We will read the duties of the President-General, and Administrator, section 14, page 17, of the Constitution in evidence. "President-General and Administrator." Gentlemen, I told sure you know the complete meaning of the world Administrator. "The President-General and Administrator shall be the working head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, and he shall be held responsible to the Potentate for the entire working, and carrying out of all commands. He shall attend Convention and make a speech in reply

A good looking, stylish coat that's 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 cost. Now, Comer Coats are not sold except for all our orders, come through our own expressment.

pence and service of the individuals, on the recommendation of the president-general and administrator of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to the council assembled in regular session. The bill shall require a two-thirds majority vote of the members of the council present to carry it. The Hon. Allan Hobb, Norfolk, Va., seconded the resolution. It was then put to the house, and after much debate, pro and con, it was carried by a majority vote.
The plaintiff has not shown anything that from that law was passed in 1921 that the President-General ever called a special meeting of the council to raise his salary, but, remember gentlemen, he signed the new contract in the month of August, 1921, therefore, he was employed by that convention at the minimum. That was the contract, he was employed at the minimum to earn the maximum. Nowhere is it shown that the maximum was ever granted him by the President-General in executive council or the President-General personelle. The burden of proof rests on him, therefore.
Then we take another meeting of the Executive Council held September 29, 1923, where this very man Galanos was present, where he said some very good things about himself, he said he remembered that, but when he came down to the resolution which he did him down he said, "I do not remember anything."
We introduced witnesses to prove that this meeting was held, minutes were taken, and the minutes are here gentlemen. There was some confusion as to who moved the motion; that is immaterial, the resolution was moved and carried. These men put in a word here and there to suit themselves, having in mind what they intended to do.
I want to make you a special offer whereby you can earn from $100 to $1,000 a month cash. And I am going to tell you how to get started immediately without waiting or delay.
You can be your own boss. You can work just as many hours a day as you please. You can start when you want to and quit when you want to. You don't need experience and you get your money in cash every day when you earn it.
These Are Fact...
Does that sound too good to be true? If it does then let me tell you about Professor W. J. McCray. His regular job paid him only $2.00 a day. He accepted my offer. I gave him the same chance I am now offering you. At this new work he has made $16.800 in three years. If that isn't enough, then let me tell you about Spencer Warren. Here are just a few of the big promises a profitee can make my proposal to me. $424.82 in September. $400.82 in October. $449.86 in November. E. J.

Well, here is your chance to find out, for this is the same proposition that enabled George Garon
to that of the. Potentate. He shall instruct minor Officers, on their duties, and see that such duties are properly performed. He shall be empowered to exercise a veto power on any financial matter initiated by any individual or by the Executive Council that may tend to jeopardise or ruin the finances of the organization. Such veto power shall only be used by the administrator in financial matters, and where from his best judgment he is convinced that it is not to the best interest of the organization to permit the carrying out of such financial measurer. An appeal may be made to the convention against the veto of the administrator on any measure, and he shall be held responsible to the convention for the exercise of his judgment on the matter."
I need not read further, but I will read another section, 4 of the Constitution, page 7, "Officials, Officers Elections and Appointments." Section 2, "The Offices of the Provisional President of Africa, the President General and Administrator, the First Assistant President-General, the Second Assistant President-General, who shall also be titular leader of American Negroes, the Third Assistant President-General, who shall also be Titular Leader of Negroes of the West Indies, South and Central America; the Fourth Assistant President-General, all of whom shall be elected, and their term of office shall be four years, providing their conduct conform to the best interests of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, Section 2a.

OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey
THIS is a season of first come first served in all of the shopping districts. To the average woman it is a most interesting season. The eye rests on many beautiful things the horse cannot always afford. The receptive mind gets new ideas from the numerous gifts in the shops. Then, too, there is the constant brain battle, as to what would be the most useful gift for relative or friend. How pathetic, that we see none of our race women handling Christmas gifts! We buy, but sell not. Wherever there are fifty or more Negro women, a store could be started on a small scale.
Those who are efficient in the millinery art, tailoring, fancy work, flower making, and other arts too numerous to mention, could each do her bit. So many of our women think they need Mme. Walker's wealth to start, but she started with little money. She had a will and found a way. You can do so.
The Greek and the Jew start in a wee corner and branch out, and we help them. Strange, we never quarrel about prejudice in the department stores. We can get more attention for a dollar in a department store than for all our printed words of censure of the white man in our papers, where space is so valuable. Could we offer a better suggestion than that the women of the Universal Negro Improvement Association consider the business phase of their lives and take steps to improve it?
Just a word about laundries. It is a deplorable fact that we haven't one steam laundry in Harlem, and a hand laundry only here and there. Yet, we seem perfectly willing to take our laundry to the Chinaman or the Pollock or American white man, where none of them employ Negro help. As with laundries so with little notion and grocery stores.
We trust this Yuletide will cause many Negro women to think carefully over this business matter, and not find the same condition next year.
WOMAN'S PERSONALITY
THE subject of our editorial platform, and in the pre personalities of their rule all nations, because of her human siveness to what is best and high. Webster-tells us that personal tion of the person. In woman position. Of course, the culture tion of all those around her. goes about the house, doing in housekeepers find to be daily dry an inspiration. Cheerfulness makes those in the house want to. The woman who possesses a pe is the community favorite. She l when something definite is to be to be chosen. Personality is being body. We look upon woman's p than man's, because we still beli that rocks the cradle rules the w. At this season of the year, the Improvement Association are pla those in whom they are intereste ciation, it is well that they do so compact and so devoted to the
act of our editorial has been discussed in, and in the press. Republics rise in qualities of their rulers. Queen Victoria house of her humane, sympathetic man is best and highest as wife, mother, us that personality is that which person. In woman, the distinction in course, the cultured woman holds the nose around her. The very mannish house, doing in a cheerful manner to be daily drudgery, instead of Cheerfulness makes the daily task the house want to stay with the cheek who possesses a personality is indeed favorite. She lives for the people definite is to be done, the cheer-sepersonality is being brinful of good upon woman's personality as being we still believe in the old adage rules the world." Of the year, the women of the U.S. association are planning many please they are interested. In the high way that they do so, as there is no other devoted to the work of sisterhood.
THE subject of our editorial has been discussed from the pulpit, platform, and in the press. Republics rise and fall by the personalities of their rulers. Queen Victoria was loved by all nations, because of her humane, sympathetic nature and responsiveness to what is best and highest as wife, mother and queen.
Webster tells us that personality is that which constitutes distinction of the person. In woman, the distinction is her loving disposition. Of course, the cultured woman holds the undivided attention of all those around her. The very manner in which she goes about the house, doing in a cheerful manner what so many housekeepers find to be daily drudgery, instead of daily duties, is an inspiration. Cheerfulness makes the daily task lighter, even makes those in the house want to stay with the cheer-sender.
The woman who possesses a personality is indeed born rich. She is the community favorite. She lives for the people. The result is, when something definite is to be done, the cheer-sender is the first to be chosen. Personality is being brimful of good cheer for everybody. We look upon woman's personality as being more effective than man's, because we still believe in the old adage, "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world."
At this season of the year, the women of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are planning many pleasant surprises for those in whom they are interested. In the high work of the association, it is well that they do so, as there is no other organization so compact and so devoted to the work of sisterhood and charity.

Try This PROVEN WAY TO STOP FALLING HAIR and DANDRUFF
Dandruff, falling hair, itching scalp and baldness are enemies to scalp health and the growth of long, lustrous hair. Scientists admit they are "germ" diseases and to cure them the germ must surely be destroyed.
There's no longer reason for having poor, unhealthy scalp and dull lifeless hair. It has been proven that MADAM C. J. WALKER'S WONDERFUL HAIR PREPARATIONS are directly opposed to harmful germ life, that they attack only diseased tissues, tend to keep the scalp free from dandruff and itch, allay falling hair, enrich the scalp, stimulate growth and make for long lustrous hair.

The very manner in which she a cheerful manner what so many ludgery, instead of daily duties, is makes the daily task lighter, even stay with the cheer-sender. Personality is indeed born rich.

a proposal requiring men as well as women to wear wedding rings.
The question arose during discussion of the revision of the marriage service, which earlier had been altered so as to eliminate the time-honored word "ohey" from the bride's response in one of the two passages in which it occurs in the ritual. The proposal for the double ring ceremony was argued with much heat before it was rejected.
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1824
To the Editor of The Negro World:
Please permit me space in your valuable paper to say that Negroes must not be dormant when conditions of late seem to be so critical or that economic pressure is so great and is becoming worse. In Cuba, it is affecting us greatly, and I believe it is so with all Negroes the world over.
I do not agree with the writer of Central Vertientes, whose letter was published on the 8th of this issue of The Negro World that the Negro is refused employment because the white engineer claimed that we are (Negroes) forming a government in New York, but for the fact that we are Negroes and that he is looking out for his brothers first. I am of the belief that that writer's statement will just give food to the few fools who feel themselves justified in saying that the U. N. I. A. is a hindrance to the Negro. "To keep the Negro down and out has always been the white man's policy too long before the U. N. I. A. came on the scene." Such is my objectionable feature.
A bit of news which appeared this week is the Havana Post in its special news column, needs the attention of West Indian Negroes who are residents here, as I am. The question is vital and should impress our people.
The news is as follows: "Dr. Alfredo Gonzales, consul for the Centro Castellana, petitioned Secretary Betancourt, of the Agricultural Department, asking authorization for the Spanish association to enter a strong contingent of Spanish maids and cooks into this country."
"Permit me to say that I am strongly of the opinion that the petition will be granted. The motive can easily be perceived. In spite of the fact that our men are steadily thrown out of employment, we, the women, will soon have a bitter time. The gravity of the situation can be easily realized. Soon, Spanish women will be taking our places before the stoves and wash-pan.
The Hon. Marcus Garvey is more than a student of psychology. Reading The Negro World of Nov. 15 I see where he said in his speech, the economic conditions are troubling the Negro more the world over. That is very true. At least, it's coming to its last stage in Cuba. Conditions in the West Indies are stagnant, the immigration restriction of the United States is still on. Where will we go? What will we do?
Let us rise to a sense of duty; let us provide for the rainy day; let us help the God-sent Marcus Garvey, which means helping ourselves.
ETHEL A. AUGUSTIN,
Camaguey, Cuba.
REALIZATION
By CLARA TROTT DE SHIELD
Hark, from under the apple tree
Comes a ripple of happy laughter!
Bolsterous in their childish glee.
Nature's own true son and daughter
Why, he is black and she is white—
But aren't they a pretty sight!
Tripping along the dusty street.
Swift on the way from school to home.
Two little pairs of happy feet,
See how jauntly they come!
Why, he is black and she is white-
What an uncommon sight!
Heedless of curious passers by;
Why, he is black and she is white—
What an astonishing sight!
Comes the day when the flaxen head
Is upward tossed with angry fling;
Cruel, indeed, were the words she said,
Words that left a bitter sting:
"You are black and I am white"—
Alas, what a sad, sad sight!
Now the youth has wiser grown:
Truth's awakening spirit has he;
His love has a skin like his own,
For what has been should never be.
So both are black and neither is white,
And aren't they a noble sight!
Montreal, Canada.
PRAISE FOR MRS. GARVEY AND OTHER RACE WOMEN
To the Editor of the Woman's Page:
I am a member of the U. N. I. A. of Columbus, Ohio, No. 142. I am eager to see this glorious work go on. I read of nearly all divisions 'rallying to the cause.
I am interested in the woman's page of The Negro World, and we all should thank Mrs. Garvey, the first lady of the land, who made it possible for the women of her race to express their opinions publicly. We love her and look to her for example, as other races look to their great women.
So long may she live and be more able to inspire us on our way until Africa is rededged for the Negro race. We as women have an important part to play in this job of nation building. God bless our great women such as Mrs. Garvey and Lady Henrietta Viston Davin. We hold such women our precious jewels. Three cheers for these women who are at the heart of the Red, Black and Green.
WHAT WOMEN ADMIRE IN MAN AND THE IDEAL
To the Editor of the Women's Page:
Women naturally admire courage and fraternity in men. The ideal man in a woman's eye must be heroic, and brave. Women despair in coward and have no respect for a man who is ashamed to stand up for them.
Women who object to being bossed by men who are strict and firm, nevertheless admire men who can rule. The average Negro man of today gets very little respect from his women because the latter have become the breadwinners for themselves and families, and the colored man is content to say that white folks won't give him a job, and in some cases he is too lazy to accept any job at all. Hence a poor Negro woman is compelled to go out and brave the rebuke of white people in seeking employment for the support of herself and children. These conditions prevail, particularly in this country.
It is time for all men to get busy and make jobs for themselves, instead of parking on us poor women and always complaining that they cannot get a suitable job.
Men of other races consider it their first duty to protect and support their women and will brave all dangers to get money to lay at their women's feet. We Negro women admire white men in this respect and deplore the weak (can't be done) attitude of some Negro men.
Another quality in man that woman admires is intelligence. This is illustrated by the following story: A colored soldier was summoned to the war in 1917, leaving his sweetheart behind. He wrote back to her saying: "I have lost an eye, a leg, an arm, and am so badly marred that you could never love me again. Yet I love you too well to make your life wretched by requiring you to keep your marriage vow with me. Therefore, choose another, who is more physically perfect, whom you can love better."
She answered as any genuine woman would answer: "Your noble mind, splendid talents, martial bravery, which malmed you, are what I love. As long as you retain sufficient body to contain the casket of your soul, which alone is what I admire, I love you and long to make you mine."
Therefore, men, if you desire to win the love and respect of your women, he intelligent, generous, self-supporting, gallant and honest. With these qualities, along with the teachings of the U. N. L. A., and following the footsteps of your leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, you will be able to make your women superior to other women on God's earth.

Suggestions to Housewives
To wash chiffon squeeze it gently in warm, soapy water until clean, then thoroughly rinse it in warm water in which a hump of sugar has been dissolved. This will give it a little firmness after being ironed. It is best to dry the chiffon before ironing.
Icing for cake may be prevented from cracking by adding one teaspoon of cream to each unbeaten egg. Fill all together, then add sugar until as stiff as desired.
In making cake or creaming butter and sugar for hard sauce always add a tablespoon of boiling water. This greatly lessens the work, produces a fine creamy mixture and makes the cake more moist.
SMILE
Little Edward, 2, is very much afraid of thunder and lightning. One night during a severe electrical storm his mother tried to comfort him by telling him he must not be afraid, for it was all the Lord's work. Just as the finished there came a violent step of thunder?

Wife Can't Divorce New Jersey Convict
TREENTON, N. J.-Imprisonment for life for murder does not make a man liable to divorce on the ground of desertion, Vice-Chancellor Buchanan explained in denying a decree to Mary Kolus, of Carteret, N.

Kolus was sentenced three years ago by the late Supreme Court Justice Bergen for the alleged murder of Fred Kunman, husband of Mrs. Margaret Kunman, named in the divorce action as the correspondent. Kolus was taken from the prison to the State House to testify and immediately afterward was sent back to the institution.
A Tired Woman's Epitaph
Here lies a poor woman who always was tired;
She lived in a house where no help was hired.
Her last words on earth were: "Dear friends, I am going
Where washing isn't done, nor sweeping nor sewing;
But everything there is exact to my wishes.
For where they don't eat, there's no washing of dishes.
I'll be where loud anthems will always be ringing;
But, having no voice, I'll be clear of the singing.
Don't mourn for me now; don't mourn for the news.
I'm going to do nothing for ever and ever."

DON'T TALK "BABY TALK" TO THE BABIES
DON'T TALK "BABY TALK" TO THE BABIES
the worst thing to talk to a baby is "baby talk." From his earliest years a child should be spoken to in correctly and distinctly articulated words, put together in simple but complete sentences.
Dr. James Sonnett Greene, one of the foremost opponents of "baby talk," makes the foregoing statement in an article on "The Child's Speech" appearing in the November Hygela, popular health magazine published by the American Medical Association.
"The most evil outcome of talking 'baby talk' to babies, and particularly of imitating their omissions and substitutions of consonants because this mutilated speech sounds 'so cute' is that such speech often becomes confirmed in the child as a habit and thus remains throughout his adult years when it is far from sounding cute to anyone. Hardly anything could be better designed to confirm defective speech in a child than for him to hear it constantly imitated." Dr. Greene declares. Dr. Greene is medical director of the National Hospital for Speech Disorders in New York, the first public hospital devoted solely to the defective voice and speech conditions.
Many parents think the only attention they need to give to their children's speech is to see that it is free from poor grammar and what are called bad words, says Dr. Greene. The general idea seems to be that straightforward, normal, standard speech is something that a child picks up naturally, and that even if he has a bad speech defect, such as stuttering, he will outgrow it in time. Many children never outgrow such habits, or since they overcome them only after a long, hard stuggle.
Training in speech should begin, according to Dr. Greene's idea, just as soon as a child's intelligence awakens sufficiently to cause him to struggle for speech. A child's training in school and college, his happiness in social life, his success in business, all depend upon speech, and parents should take this into consideration.
Yes; "We Have Some Bananas" by the Billions
(From, the London Daily Herald)
What our consumption of bananas is in a year is shown in an article on "The Banana and Its Cultivation, With Special Reference to the Empire," published in the current issue of "The Bulletin" of the Imperial Institute.
It is shown that in 1922 bananas were imported into the United Kingdom to the value of over £5,300,000, of which amount only about £600,000 represented produce of British possessions.
Of the British West India Islands, Jamaica is the only important banana producing country, and last year exported, largely to the United States. 12,500,000 bunches, valued at over £2,250,000, whilst in some years the exports have exceeded 16,000,000 bunches.
In Australia considerable quantities are grown for local consumption in Queensland and New South Wales, and there is also a large import from Fiji, where banana growing is one of the staple industries.
We have no true leisure class in America except those who play checkers.

that the very method’ through which
the organisation should get its Income

od thie man used to get money for
himself, tor Gaines or daddy... The
organization has wo other means than
by this. Article 8<page 24, Constitution
of 1921, in evidence, revenuer, incomes,
etc, “The revenue of the Universal
Negro Ii. covement Association shall
be derived from monthly subscriptions
which shall not be more than 36 cents
per month being authorized dues of
each active member, donations, collec-
tions, gifts, profits derived from busl-
nesses, entertainments, functions or

nature, and « death tax of 10 cents per
month.”
Gifts, donations, collections, this te
how we get our money. This man, an
executive officer In the pay of the or-
ganization, Instead of raising collec
tons for ‘the orzantzation, da so for
himself, and called it gifte for daddy.
You heard about the $200 in Chicago.
$200 voted out of the treasury of the
organization to give a man in the em-
ploy of the organization. Ien’t that ®
crime? It. had been brought out that
he waa shot. Why didn’t the plainufts
counsel ask him why he was shot. irs.
Dentena teatifed that $360 was paid to
fm private secretary. That $350 wan
taken up for daddy when he was sick.
Was daddy aick on account of the Unt-
versal Negro Improvement Associa;
tion? Why should moneys of the Uni-
versut Negro Improvement Association
be used on auch = man? He never
asked him how much he got out of
politics, He never questioned him
whether {t wae true that he collected
money from the Republican and Dem-
ecratic parties of Chicago. Ah, gen-

We have paid Gaines up to June 15,

Le voyage durera trente et un jours. Le bateau touchera à Cuba, Haiti, Jamaique, et les pays de Panama, Bocas del Toro et Costa-Rica. Pourquoi ne pas aller voir ces beaux pays, ou croissant de les bananiers, la canne à sucre, les coctiers et les svêtes palmiers? 11 faut aller voir cette belle nature toujours verdoyante et où les oiseaux modulent des chants, sans jamais discontinuer. Allez vers ces pays de révés et d'enchantement ou les bouillanantes cascades jamaïne ne se congelent. Alles contemplez dans leur joie exhérente les indigenes de ces les dont l'hospitalité est si franche et si accueillante. Des millions d'Américains blancs vont aux Antilles tous les ans. Voici une occasion qui s'offre aux Noirs d'en faire autant. Allez voir le canal de Panama, cette oeuvre de genie de première force accomplie par des Noirs sous la direction du Général G. W. Goethals, pour qui ce mène Bateau fut nomnie auparavant.
Ce bateau est splendidement amenable. Ses cabins sont aussi spacieuses et commodes que celles des autres grands transatlantiques, et le prix en est aussi doux que possible pour les trente jours que doit durer la traversée. Le voyage aller-re retour coûte $350.00 tous frais compris.
Ce bateau sera monte-par un groupe compétent d'officiers blancs et de couleur. Les branches locales de la U. N. I. A. préparent des réceptions en honneur de ceux qui feront le voyage. Ceux qui feront cette tournée excursioniste ne manqueront pas de jour de mille agreements. Il y a encore la possibilité de faire de ce déplacement, un voyage tant d'agrements que d'affaires. De nouvelles associations peuvent se former au cours de ce voyage de nouvelles prises de contact, de nouvelles relations d'affaires telles qu'en forment les commis-voyageurs pour compte des grandes maisons de commerce blanches dont le chiffre des affaires sont accrues. Si ce premier voyage résultat favorablement, la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company mettra à la disposition des membres de la race des facilities bi-annuelles de visiter les tropiques. Donc que tout le monde travaille à la réussite de cette première tentative. On peut arrêter des maintenant sa cabine en cérivant a la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, 56 West 134th street, New York, et en envoyer soit l'integralité de la somme, soit la moitié à condition de verser le solde avant le premier Décembre. Le bateau laissera la rade de New York, à 135th street et North River Pier, le Dimanche après-midi, 11 Janvier 1925 et reviendra le 7 Fevrier 1925. Point n'est besoin de passeports.

La Grande Bretagne usurpe l'Egypte et le Soudan
L'ultimatum britannique à l'Egypte a été catégoriquement rejeté. La Grande Bretagne appuiera ses réclamations par la force armée. Il est dit qu'aucune intervention ne sera toécerde de la part de la Ligue des Nations par la Grande Bretagne. Il est possible qu'une longue guerre s'ensuite.
Le point saillant de la note présentée par l'Empire Britannique à l'Egypte stipule que l'Egypte doit effectuer l'évacuation militaire du Soudan.
Les dépêches de Londres ne laissent pas de déclarer que la souverrainet de l'Egypte sera respectée, mais il est évident que avec une garnison anglaise sur les lieux, des Conseillers britannique dans les principaux bureaux et départements gouvernementaux, la censure de la presse et l'interdiction des manifestations publiques-il est évident que l'intention de Londres est d'opérer une main-mise complete sur l'Egypte.
L'exécution de ce plan laisserait l'Egypte en possession de quelques 260,000 milles carrées d'territoire dont environ 12,000 milles carrées sultent sont cuivées; tandis que la Grande Bretagne controllerait plus de 1,000,000 de milles carrées environ le quart. du continent européen dont la plus grande partie est susceptible d'exploitation.
L'Angkterrete, d'après la note remise au Premier Zaghouil, contrôrait également les sources du Nil, sur lesquelles dépendent les 12,000,000 d'Egypteans pour l'firrigation de leurs fermes et cités, et serait libre d'en détrouner les caux de terres soudues.
La Grande Bretagne convoite la possession du Soudan à comme du rendement immenses qui resulterait de la mise en execution de certains

LE NOIR DANS LA
SCIENCE
La visite récente du Dr George W. Carver à New York a démontré les possibilités insouponnées du Noir. La race qui a produit Blind Boone, Flora Batson, Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Roland Hayes et Charles Gilpin est considérée comme possédant des talents potentiels sous la rapport artistique. Le Dr Carver, membre de le Royal Society de la Grande Bretagne, décoré de la médaillé Spingarn oblige le pays à tenir compte aujourd'hui des possibilités scientifiques du Noir. Le Dr Carver a développé 118 produits de la patate: 176 de la noix de pistache; 85 du pecan et 300, de l'argile ordinaire du Sud.
De tels travaux sont remarquables par eux-mêmes; maia ils acquièrent une tres grande importance quand on considère qu'ils sont dus à un Noir. De son laboratoire à Tuskegee il ne serait pas impossible que le Dr. Carver lance des élèves qui exerceront plus tard une influencie dur les destinées de la race; car ce sont de tels exemples, produits par la race, qui contribueront à la faire respecter par les autre*.
Le bruit court que le poste de Ministre de Pologne aux Efats-Unis servit offert à Paderewski, le célébre virtue*. On ne sait s'il acceptera cette offre.
La souverainité multifocale et l'Indépendance économique scolaire peuvent assurer aux noirs la justice sociale a laquelle ils ont droit
Mr Marcus Garvey, l'éminent president-general de la 'Universal Negro Improvement Association, declare que la souveraineté nationale et l'independance économique sont les seules forces sur lequelles le Noir doit compter pour obtenir la reconnaissance de ses droits sociaux, civils et autres.
Il considère comme une heureux presage que Haiti, Liberia et l'Abyasinie sont membres de la Ligue des Nations. Il dit:
"Le membre le plus faible de la Ligue a autant de voix et de vote que le plus fort. Le rang égal qu'occupée Haiti, le Liberia et l'Abyssinie avec les plus grandes nations de la terre (et les Etats-Unis ne font pas partie de la Ligue) ne fait que confirmer la justesse de notre assertion que le cri de ralliment "Afrique aux Africains" ou la conquête d'une nationalité propre est la seule voie par laquelle the Noir peut espérer obtenir la justice économique, sociale et civile à laquelle il a droit et que les nations de la chrétienne s'obstinent à lui dénier. En proportion et à mesure que le Noir développera sa force nationale, il conquerera le respect du reste du monde; respect quon dénie à ceux qui ne sont pas l'également privilégiés de s'asoir dans les lieux où s'assemblent pour délibérer les Conseils des Nations.
Il faut proner partout, dans toutes les Liberty Hall, dans toutes les localités que le seul moyen pour le Noir d'atteindre à l'indépendance économique est de s'unir, de s'associer, de s'organiser et de travailler en commun en confondant leurs resources intellectuelles et économiques si faibles soient elles pour la création d'une entreprise commerciale quelconque, des agences d'assurance ou de transactions bancaires. Faites des negociations entre vous-niemes; trafiquiez les uns avec les autres. Créz-vous une occupation, un commerce quelconque. Faites quelque chose. Consacrez vos énergies à une activite quelconque. Developpez une entreprise dans votre localité. Faites quelque chose par vous-mémes et pour vous-niemes. Personne ne le fera pour vous."
Le président Coolidge dans son message relatif au budget demande que la plus stricte économie soit pratiquée
Il prévoit un surplus de $373,743,714 à la Tresorerie à la fin de l'exercice fiscal de la présente année.
Les dépenses ont été réduites de beacoupl l'exécutif évaluent les frais courants du Gouvernement à $3,267,511,367.
El primer vapor de esta nueva línea, hemos de repetir, saldrá de Nueva York en la tarde del domingo once de enero de 1925, llevando a su bordo el primer contingente de turistas norteamericanos de la raza hacia las Antillas y America Central. Se hace extensiva una invitación a todo nuestro elemento que desee visitar dichos puntos, a que obtenga su pasaje correspondiente para este cruce y con anticipación conseguir todas las comodidades que brinda nuestro amplio vapor Booker T. Washington, ya en condiciones navegables para esta empresa.
"Je suis en faveur de mesures économiques", a dit le Président, "Si nous poursuitons notre campagne d'économie, nous préparerons la voie à de nouvelles reductions des taxes fédérales. "En ce qui concerne les choses dont l'exécution s'impose, nous travaillons à réduire aussi rapidement que possibles les frais au strict minimum compatible avec un service efficient."
Pour mieux souligner ses recommandations de réduction et d'économie dans les dépenses gouvernementales, le Président a annoncé son intention de se rendre à Chicago assister à l'Exposition des produits de l'Elevage en voyageant dans un compartiment du train ordinaire, pour éviter au pays les frais excessifs nécessités par la sortie du train presidentiel special.
Los hebreos también propónense llevar turistas de su raza en excursión a la Palestina y a la Tierra Santa, de manera que los descendientes de Moisés y otros tantos que deseen visitar la reedificación de la ciudad biblica, lo hagan obteniendo por el más bajo costo, las mejores comodidades apetecibles. De igual manera nuestra organización respalda la nueva corporación naviera, ofreciéndole oportunidad a nuestro elemento en este país, para que visite a sus congeneres y estudie sus actividades en otros puntos del globo.
Voyageront avec lui, à cette occasion, Mme Calvin Coolidge, le Sénéator et Mm* Medill McCormick, et d'autres notabilités et amis.
No hay razón por la cual no deban derivarse mejores y más sabias relaciones comerciales, entre nuestro elemento norteamericano y el de las Antillas y Centro America. Nuestro elemento en los trópicos produce gran cantidad de material virgen, materia prima que puede ser usada ventajosamente por la inclinación comercial del norteamericano, de la raza, al igual que lo hace el comerciante blanco inglés o americano en iguales condiciones. Todo cuanto se necesita para el efecto, es la voluntad y el valor para establecer mejores relaciones entre ambos elementos; es un sano entendido entre los mismos. Esta nuestra primera excursión ofrece esa gran oportunidad y debemos aprovecharla.
LA · MUTINERIE
KHARTOUM
L'Associated Press, en date du 29 Novembre, annonce que les survivants de la mutinérie de Khartoum se sont rendus aux Anglais. Deux pelotons du 11 bataillon soudanais s'étient mutinés. Après le bombardement des bâtiments ou se trouvre l'hopital militaire egyptien les survivants se sont rendus. Deux officiers anglais ont été tués et huit hommes blessés. Les rebelles étaient au nombre de 200; il y aurait 60 tués et blessés.
Es deber ineludible de todos y cada uno de nosotros, guiar nuestros esfuerzos en tal dirección y por ello apelamos una y otra vez al espritu de libertad, de progreso y de confraternidad de la raza universalmente. Hagamos un estudio minucioso de lo que emancipación industrial y comercial de una raza significa, y llegaremos a la conclusión de aportar con todo cuanto esté a nuestro alcance en pro del éxito de un movimiento que labore en tal sentido. Huelga exponer de nuevo los fines y propósitos de nuestra organización; importa a la raza en general la realización de estos y para ello debemos cooperar a nuestro mejor modo de entender.

PROP. M. A. FIGUEROA, Editor
Sesor Director de la sesión Española de El Nroso World:
En las páginas del illustrado periódico El Negro World el señor Luis Torres Colón publicó bajo el nombre "Cuestión Masónica" un artículo donde pretende dar luz sobre un asunto que por más de una centuria, en la ciudad de Nueva York especialmente y en los Estados Unidos generalmente viene preocupando los hombres ignorantes, los peritos, los blancos y los negros en asuntos masónicos donde funcionan los negros. No hace mucho tiempo que el señor Colón Torres publicó en los periodicos de Harlem un artículo como Gran Logia "organizada" bajo las leyes del estado de Nueva York como una sociedad benéfica por unos individuos pretenciosos, que aún viven en la irregularidad de creer que ellos mismos tienen por la derecho alguno de levantar logias en territorio donde existe logias cubriendo la jurisdicción con patente de gran logia soberana. Ahora viene el señor Colón Torres y nos presenta sus impressions "el commerce a que ha estado sujeto el desarrollo masónico dentro de la raza de color de los Estados Unidos, es altamente bochornose." Esto es verdaderamente lamentable y no debe cabe duda alguna porque el señor Colón Torres ejerció el puesto de Gran Secretario en una colectividade que hasta hoy carece del alivio y el amparo que debe manifestarse dentro del circulo de la asociación.
Elemento Norteamericano de la raza irá a las Antillas como turista en su propio vapor—Visitará los trópicos y gozará de las delicias de su verano eterno—Nueva actitud y grandes realizaciones en perspectiva—Excursión hebrea—Mejores relaciones comerciales entre los distintos pueblos de nuestra raza—Deber includible de todos
Es altamente alentador el saber que la raza se prepara en todas partes, para entrar en un nuevo periodo de la vida de asociación con gran interés y celo, en ayudarnos en la causa que perseguimos para alcanzar el objetivo que nos proponemos. Examinando el texto de las comunicaciones recibidas de los cuatro puntos del globo, nos produce un gran placer y estamos altamente satisfechos al realizar que la labor que hemos emprendido en los últimos siete años, ha alcanzado un éxito insuperable.
La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, tiende su vista hacia el año 1925 como año de enlistamiento universal, cuando cada grupo y cada sección de la raza esté, en condiciones en todas partes y se inflame con el fuego del entusiasmo, para llevar más adelante el trabajo de redención y se vean coronados todos los esfuerzos y glorificados todos los sacrificios de la gran raza africana diseminada por la superficie de este planeta.
La fiebre del escritor toma forma loca cuando dice "Que la Negro Americano confunde la masoneria con su política". Los masones Prince Hall nunca han permitido política ni fueto extraño percular dentro de su censo, y creo que hablo con bastante seguridad en los veinte años, como miembro de la logia Prince Hall No. 38 de Nueva York, anteriormente Sol de Cuba No. 28. Puede ser que los individuos con quien el profesor se pasa las noches son personas indignas para asociarse con los altos preceptos y meritorias cualidades que la caridad masonica demanda. Puede ser que se ha olvidado del refrían "Dime con quien antas y te diré quien eres".
Aquí en Norte America nosotros estamos realizando todo cuanto está a nuestro alcance, y nos sentimos realmente satisfechos de que nuestros coparticipes de las Antillas, Centro America y Africa, prestan su ayuda en igual paralelo. Preparación y gran desenvolvimiento de caracter será nuestra guia, y progreso será la palabra de pase para el año de 1925.
Mucho de lo que debiera decirse debe silenciarse, por el temor de que se diga demasiado y el oido del público pueda defraudar el gran propósito que tenemos en mente, para beneficiar los cuatrocientos millones de irredentos que representamos. Silenciosa y quedamente debemos hacer nuestra entrada por las barreras de dificultades que se nos presentan a nuestro paso. Decir poco y ejecutar mucho, será nuestra actitud, siendo esta nuestra divisa para ganar la solidaridad y presentar un cuerpo nutrido, que responda a los embates que impone el campo de evolución del porvenir.
El talentoso profesor nos recuerda y le acerciaramos en la verdad que los Negros Americanos fueron elejidos a la masoneria por la logia militar de un regimiento irlandés situado en la ciudad de Boston, estado the Nueve Inglaterra hoy el estado de Massachusetts, bajo el mando del General Gage durante el año 1773 cuando Prince Hall; un hombre cudo y respetado por el pueblo con doce otros individuos descendientes de Africanos fueron inicados, pasados y levantados a los grados simbolicos. Estos mismo individuos mas tarde presentan una petición à la Gran Logia Soberana de Inglaterra y se le expidió patente en el año 1784 bajo el nombre de Logia Africana número 459. Todo esto es verdad indiscutible; se encuentra en el fallo de la historia. La historia de esta logia es la misma que nos ofrece las logias blancas que fueron formadas durante el periodo de la revolución contra las fuerzas Inglesas. Tan pronto se organizan la logia mencionada cuestiones de raza tomaron vuelo y en las historia, de Wm H. Upton y Samuel Clark; puede leer las dificultades que el padre Prince Hall-de la masoneria, dentro las personas mencionada sufrieron y vienen friended desde 1784 hasta hoy, como también, de la persona de una persona que vive dentro de su barrio en la personal del señor Torreque lanza sus rayos de colerro cuando dice "Los titulados Prince Hall son cueros clandestinos con jurisdicción local inicamente". Puede ser que el escritor carece de suficiente conocimiento de la verdad de lo que escribe. Someto para el juicio de personas desinteresadas la aldea del municipio de la
La preparación industrial y comercial de la raza se impone, para que esté apta al nuevo sistema de reajuste que se avecina. Sin una preparación firme y robusta que nos garantize, no podemos levantarnos al nivel tan serio y lleno de responsabilidades, que presenta la actual civilización. Es por esta razón que nosotros redoblamos nuestros esfuerzos y nuestras energias, para que se un exito nuestra nueva corporación naviera la Cruz Negra.
una de las gualmas de la gaja jurisdicción soberana, jurisconsulto y juez de la Corte Supreme del estado de Washington, escrita en defense de los masones descendientes de Prince Hall, titulada "La Luz Sobre un Sujeto Obscuro" siendo un examen de la critica contra la legitimidad de la masonera que existe dentro los Negros de la America" por William H. Upton, AM, LIM, Gran Maestro del Estado de Washington. Seattle 1809. Y no obstante la critica que dicha obra produjo sobre la cabeza del jurisdiccionulo y juez por las grandes jurisdicciones Soberanas de los blancos de los Estados Unidos. La calma de mas de trecino y cinco años, nos presenta el juicio de este redentor y aquellos que lo denunciaron hoy revelan la verdad masónica pronunciado en favor. de los Negros.
Tenemos que investigar el conocimiento que ciñer Torres posee de la historia masónica; nos dice que la gran logia de Méjico, la gran logia soberana de Puerto-Rico y el gran consejo español de la misma isla son reconocidos por la Gran Bretafia. Bero la gran logia de Méjico y Puerto-Rico, etc., no fueron ample reconocida por los masones de la Gran Bretta 6 por todos los masones en el mundo. La gran logia
soberanas de la República de Liberia fue originalmente forzada por Prince Hall masonas de los Batasianos Unidos de America. Esta gran logia es reconocida por cani todas las logias del mundo y floreciendo de las masonas matriz anteriormente notadas la Logia Afekana número 450. Si este es verdad de la gran logia de Liberia porque nº lo ou da las logias que emanocen en este país. De manera, si esto es verad de Mejico y de Puerto Rico lo fue también de muchas otras gran logias soberanas que con el tiempo y la justicia han recibido su reconocimiento.
La historia de la esclavitud en este país come en las islas de Ultramar han ocasionado sufrimiento a los colonos y aun suge la memoria de dicha lucha en todo el continent de America. El escritor Torres se queja de la "pigmentación", pero es la base donde circula la corriente que de vez en cuando le aprieta al collero del amigo que sufre. El blanco, el casi-blanco, el que pasa-por-blanco, vive alegre en este país donde su mismo color sin pigmentación alguna le protege. Ahora, el que tiene la piel como Torres y el que subscribe sufren de la dificultad Americana que directa o indirectamente prohibe, como un veneno de las Borgias, la asociación de "moros y cristanos". Esto me recuerda que en Puerto-Rico Brindis de Sala fue invitado al Casino Español, como el famosa violinista que había honrado con su presencia los salones de Emperadores, Reyes y Principes de Principes de Europa. Estos honores lo recibió el distinguido Cubano por suibilidad artística y su genio de maestro. Pero tan pronto quiso bailar con una señora blanca en el Casino Español de San Juan, Puerto-Rico, fue insultado. Prque Sr Torres? Oh! Solamente porque era moreo. No seolvide que enel terreno las preocupaciones de raza aun surgen, como surgieron en los tiempos del padre Rafael y que militaron contra la virgenes del famoso pintor Campeche.
El historiario masónico Ossian Lang, de la Gran Logia Soberana de Nueva York en su obra Historia de la Masoneria en el estado de Nueva York, página 158 dice: "La Gran Logia evidente mantiene una línea de distinción entre la relación fraternal con una gran jurisdicción masónica y el reconocimiento de su regularidad o la legitimidad de dicho gran cuerpo. De esta manera puede reconocer tal Gran Logia de Prince Hall compuesta de ciudadanos Americanos desconcientes de Africanos, correctamente constituidos por la Gran Logia de Inglaterra y como tal es legitima, pero consideraciones que enveluate el principio fundamental de estado soberano a que se adhierce las Gran Logias Americanas, son razones suficientes que justifican negarles relaciones fraternales con este cuerpo."
La defense de la cofradia de los Prince Hall masones se denuestra en las treinta y seis gran losias soberanas de los Estados Unidos con una hermandad de más de 400,000 masones, dueños de edificios masnicos con un valor mayor de ocho millones de dollars, dando sojourn a los hijos de la viuda, protejiendo a los desamparados y practicando la caridad, dando alivio a los cuerunos y sepulhora a los que han pasado la cadera simbolica.
Soy de opinion que al señor Torres se le debe dar una oportunidad para poder estudiar la verdad de lo que exirte con referencia a los masones Prince Hall. Por esta razon se frece la librería masónica del historiario y publicista Harry A. Williamson y la del que subsiste para que la luz pueda plantearse en el corazon del amigo peregrino.
Teigu una duda sobre las questiones masúicas que se debaten en las columnas de la prensa. El masón sufre en silencio con la esperanza que el tiempo y la perseverancia nivelan las dificultades de la vida.

Gran Secretario de los Prince Hall Masones del Estado de Nueva York.

‘World, Te my suggestion regarding
Jan@ not under cultivation In Cubs,
which could be utilized by forming a
syndicate among our race.
This I did not expect to be handled
by. localg: but by, the Parent Body
Uteelt, when may take steps to or-
ganize a corporation to be known as
the U.N. I A.,Cuban Sugar, Corpora-
tton. F
This: corporation would. then call
upon all tte branch societies to 0o-
operate with the Parent Body by tak-
ing shares, at-a given figure, to enable
the sald body to cirry out: Its scheme
succeantully. This, I am sure, would
develop into « powertul company, as
every man working’ on @uch an estate
must take an interest, considering it
ja part of his own property. It would
‘also cause other companten -operating
here to handle our people with f9r
more reepect, when taking. into edR-
aideration that we have an, orgahlza-
on working slde by.side with them
and are paying equi prices for labor,
and that each laborer would be ex-
necting = premiym-dt the end of each
year, or at a given time. This, I say,
would be such @ blg scheme that it
would not at all be advisable to leave
tt in ‘the hands of locale omy. It
mould be taken up by tha Parent Body.
and its Iocais combined: :
It would then open the eyes of other
races, who would ace that we are a
people capable of doing for ourselves
and therefore claim equality in com-
mercial industry. Oe
We as a race must be-up and doing
nomething ‘In order to be respected as
a raco,-and I am aure if this fe‘done
It would net us on a’ good footing.
