N. I. A. Reaffirm Their Confidence in Garvey's Leadership PUTTING OVER THE PROGRAM MUST BE THE SUPREME OBJECT OF MEMBERS AND LEADERS IN THE NEW YEAR EVENTS SHAPING THEMSELVES FAVORABLY IN AFRICA FOR THE RACE THE DEFIANT ATTITUDE OF THE NATIVES IS AN EXAMPLE Liberty Hall Is Filled Despite Bitter Cold Spell Members Turn Out in Their Usual Large Numbers LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, December 21. Notwithstanding the zero weather that gripped New York today, Liberty Hall showed no signs of diminution in the attendance. The men and women who make up the Universal Negro Improvement Association have shown time and again that they are made of the sterner stuff that makes them more determined in the face of adverse conditions, hence nothing—nay, not even the elements, can deter them from answering the call of the organization and from worshipping at the shrine from whence the doctrine of manhood rights is preached, that has in the past served to inspire other races to rise up and throw off the shackles of oppression and proscription and which, under the auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is destined also to bring the Negro race out of darkness into the light of a new day. Among the executive officers present were: Hon. Marcus Garvey, Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, Hon. Rudolph Smith, and Hon. Percival V. Burrows. After the usual preliminaries and a splendid musical program, Lady Davis delivered the opening speech in which urged the members to maintain their hope in regard to the putover of the program of the organization, saying that events are ing themselves favourably in South Africa and the day was not tant when the race now resident in the Western hemisphere shall be able to claim not only a small spot in Africa but all of Africa. Percival V. Burrows made a plea for more missionaries for the cause now that the influence of the organization was showing itself in the deliant attitude which is being taken by the natives in certain parts of Africa. Hon. Rudolph Smith pleaded for co-operation and declared that the time has come for every Negro to stand together in their efforts to build up Africa. Hon. Marcus Garvey in his speech called attention to the fact that the Negro not only in America and the Western world, but all over the world, was facing the most tying period of his racial existence, and the need of intelligent leadership was more vital now than ever. The organization, he declared, has reached the stage of an institution where its leaders must not only be mere talkers but they must be deep thinkers and planners for the future good of the people. The world was watching and judging the trend of the Negro's thought through the expressions and attitude of their leaders, hence it was for the Negro to present the best possible leadership. In doing so, if it were necessary to remove Marcus Garvey from leadership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the good of the race, he was willing to step down and help to get some one better. To this remark the audience responded "No!" in unison, and removed any doubt as to whom they desired for leadership of the organization. Mr. Garvey, in concluding, expressed the hope that in the New Year the members and leaders will go forward with the one supreme object of putting over the program in the best manner possible. Following is the text of the speech. Daily Thursdays Vinton Davis works as follows: "I am pleased to be with you tonight, qualified to see you move out this cold evening. And as I looked over the Auditor, scanning the floor, I thought of the six years of work of the many changes in the personnel of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, especially in the changes of the people who attend the Sunday night meetings. We expect to redeem Africa overnight. It is an impossibility, friends. It is our objective, must even be our objective because we are allied by heredity to that great continent. It is the call of the blood in our veins. We cannot give it up, we shall not give it up." HON. P. V. BURROWS SPEAKS Hon. Percival V. Burrows was the next speaker. He said the large number that was present in spite of the cold spell proved conclusively that the majority of the members to the Universal Negro Improvement Association Gifts That Last Buy Your Jewelry Direct From Manufacturer Present This Ad and Receive 10 Per Cent On Anything in the Line of Diamonds, Watches, Jewelry or Silverware 14-Kt. Ladies' Wrist Watch, $7.00 KARN JEWELRY CO. 600 Putton St., Brooklyn New York 10010 Starting 4079 are courageous and willing to answer the call of the organization. Tonight, he said, marked no step backward in the Universal Negro Improvement Association but forward. The members that make up the rank and file of the organization are men and women with visions of usefulness to humanity—men and women who are willing to serve their race and who are going to serve their race at any cost. We are past the stage of imaginary things and have reached the place where we must do and prove to the world that we are, worthy of the cause that we represent. MORE MISSIONARIES WANTED We want more missionaries in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Not only the officers, but every member should become a missionary of this great work. The call for missionaries has sounded throughout the length and breadth of this country and has carried to the four corners of the globe. The African is wide awake to the condition of affairs which confront the race in this part of the world and when we read the papers and watch the action of government who at present control certain portions of Africa we can see the defiant attitude which is taken by the members of our race resident in our fatherland. A Great Work to Be Done Therefore those of us who still are standing, by this great organization focused for the specific purpose of bringing together the entire family of our race scattered throughout the world have a great work to do as missionaries. Instead of criticising it is our duty to go out as missionaries and hide the faults, if there be any, in the ranks of the organization, and laud its every effort. We have before us a wonderful proposition; wonderful plans are being made and it behoves every man and woman to be up and doing—to be on tiptoe ready and willing to spend every dollar if possible to carry out this project. The steamship proposition calls for every ounce of support, and each one of us must do his part nobly and unstintingly. Africa is our home, and each one of us must work toward the end of redeeming Africa if not for ourselves for our future generations. Smith Pleads for Cooperation Hon. Rudolph Smith, was the next speaker, and in the course of his remarks pleaded for whole-hearted support of the organization. The redemption of Africa, he declared, depended upon our honest and sincere co-operation in the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and if we will stand together we will put the program over. The Negro, he said, must help to build up Africa. This is no time to turn out backs against our brothers in far-off Africa; they are waiting for us. We in the Western world have had the advantages of education in the various institutions of learning. We know enough to go back to Africa as good agricultrists, as scientists, as mining engineers, as civil engineers and make it possible to till the soil and to provide means of transportation on sea and land and in general to build up a great empire in Africa. His closing advice was to stick together and love one another, and the program will be put over. HON. MARCUS GARVEY SPEAKS The Hon. Marcus Garvey spoke as follows: "What We Have to Do" That is the subject of my discourse tonight. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and, incidentally its leaders, have a tremendous responsibility resting upon their shoulders at the present time. Now more than ever if behooves each and every one who is a leader of this race of ours to have a true and correct interpretation of his responsibility. We as a people are facing the most trying period of our racial existence, not only in America, not particularly in America and in the Western World, but all over the world. The Purpose of the World As we have often said, the purpose of the world is to supply the needs and wants of the people therein, and the purpose of the people in the world is to get the most out of the world, to get the most that the world yields. And in this getting out of the world the most that the world yields a struggle ensues between the different people who make up the inhabitants of the world? During the time of plenty there is not so much need for rivalry among the people who move up the world to get what is desired out of the world. But in the time of scarcity it becomes a logical law of self-preservation for the strongest element in the world to grapple with the weaker or weaker elements in the same world and get from them the things they desire most. The world has reached such a stage when there is no condition of plenty, but when we are gradually approaching a period and condition of certainty when every man will have to mangle for his own. As of every man so of every race and nation and people. We have reached a point now where all peoples who are related by means of ties of blood are struggling as a compact whole to get from others out of the world that which is not enough to be divided for everybody. The Negro Facing Danger Period. And so the Negro faces the most dangerous period in his existence. Some of us may not see it from the placarded house-top because of our indifference to that which concerns all but ourselves. Selfishly most of us use not beyond our own pursuits and the particular condition or affection on reaches us. That is so, if typified is in the neighborhood, or if the "flir" is in the neighborhood, some of us cannot reach out in sympathy for the neighborhood because the affliction is not in our houses. We cannot imagine the sufferings of the rest of the family or the relatives, and we cannot get ourselves in that sympathetic condition or apprehensive condition of what the "flir" means until the "flir" comes right into our homes and takes out one of our loved ones; then we start to cry and realize what a serious thing it is; so long as it was not in our houses we did not give it a thought. So long as some of us are not feeling the result of this condition that I am endeavoring to show the world is in, we do not pay any attention to it because we are far removed from it. The majority of us are people who go to work because we have something doing. But do we fail to take into consideration the great numbers who are not here or who could not get here tonight, who could not buy the shoes, who could not buy a hat, who could not take his or her clothes out of-pawn to get here tonight; who has not been on a job for the last six months, or nine months or twelve months? That is the condition that I am trying to point out to you, of the Universal Negro Improvement Association all over the country, all over the world. It is the condition that the leaders have to study now and in realizing this condition, to assume thoroughly and completely the responsibility that falls upon their shoulders to get the people up to an appreciation of their condition—to get the people to do what is possible and practical to get out of the condition or otherwise to flow on with the condition. Deep Thinking and Planning Needed Now the Universal Negro Improvement Association, as I have said, has reached the stage of an institution when its leaders must not only be mere talkers, but they must be deep thinkers and deep planners for the future good of the people. In truth that is my responsibility at this hour, and I tell you that my heart is heavy and sad. It is heavy and sad not entirely because of the condition itself, but because of the laxity of this race demonstrated for years when they had an opportunity, each and every one of us to prepare against or to ward off such a time as we see now. There is not a Negro in the United States of America, there is not a Negro in the Western World—if he tells me so I know he is lying, except he was afflicted with the palsy, except he was a confirmed invalid—there is not a Negro within the sound of my voice tonight, there is not a Negro in this Western Hemisphere that had not an opportunity, that had not a chance for at least five years of plenty to make preparation for the five lean years that were to follow; what did we do? We turned a deaf ear we laughed and danced and frivolously went by and paid no attention and by that attitude we have brought upon ourselves the condition that we are face to face with. Unless something unforeseen happens in another ten years then the American Negro will pay the price, of that which has been arranged for him by the better thinking men of the race that knows how to live and how to move. I am sorry that I am placed in such a position that I cannot talk all that I would like to talk, because everything I say whilst you do not read it and do not pay any attention to it, those who are most concerned about the disarrangement of any plans that they may have, read every word and digest every word and give the proper meaning to every word and take no chance against the meaning of the words. So that I have to be as conservative as possible not for my own good, because personally I am not afraid of anybody, but for this race of our Personally, nothing like, intimidation can ever stand in my pathway between hell and earth; nothing can ever intimidate me; the only force in the world that can intimidate me is the great Divide and omnipotence of God. So it is not because of myself that I do not want to speak, but it is because I am mindful of the good of the four hundred million of the race. I could get up here and make a lot of big speeches and you will cheer me, but I cannot afford to do that, now because you are not in a position to help yourselves and I am not in a position to help you. So it is foolishness for me to say things to you, even though I had to say those things to you five or six years ago to arouse your consciousness of race and service to yourselves. I could afford to say things then because what I said could not affect you; in the bus rush and the hysteria the world was in everybody could say anything; anybody could get up in Liberty Hall and say anything; but it cannot be done now, and the pity of it is that when we could have said it, all the people would not hear or understand so that we could put over the things that we were talking about. The world attention put so much to what the average person can go down Lenox Avenue and say anything and the policeman would not even look at you, but the moment Garvey gets up in Liberty Hall and says that same thing the whole community is talking about it. Why? Marcus Garvey is a leader and people listen carefully to what the leaders say and come to conversations about what people are thinking. When England wants to lose France, when France is taking about, she does not listen to the one outside France, but she listens to what different says of her is Premier of France, or to what Ponçate says of he is Premier of France, or to what Clement can says if he is Premier of France, and England will say that is the way France is thinking and then England will be prepared to meet France from the expressions of the leader of France. France wants to know what England is thinking and saying they do not send a million Frenchmen over to England, they listen to what Lloyd George says in Parliament, if he is Premier, or to what Ramsay MacDonald says if he is Premier, and then France says that is the way England is thinking. When America wants to find out what Japan is thinking, they listen to the Japanese ambassador in Washington or the Japanese Premier in the House of Lords or Parliament in Japan. So with the leaders of all the races of the world., If they want to know what the Negroes are thinking they do not listen to what the man in the street says, IMPORTANT! Bout for the Week LARRY ESTRIDGE COLORADO MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION VII. PAUL BERLENBACH 11 ROUNDER Madison Sq. Garden Friday Evening, Dec. 26 but to what Marcus Garvey says. And so, while we could have said a lot of thin a five, or six years ago and did not care what interpretation people put on them, those of us who are cognizant of our existence must be more than careful of what we say now because of the result that it might have upon the bulk of the people everywhere. Intelligent Leadership Needed That is the kind of intelligence that we want to guide the ship of state of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this crucial hour. It is only the leadership that is going to win out in the great program final we have talked about for the last seven years in this country and probably for the last ten years in other parts of the world. The world calls for the best of leadership of all people now and we, as a type of people, cannot fall below the standard of expectation of all peoples. At the Critical Point And so, my friends, we are at this critical point. I want to give you a practical talk from experience. I have been traveling: I have spent very little time in Liberty Hall. The world has returned to normal, the country has returned to normal; the excitement of war has passed away and the world is gradually readjusting itself to pre-war plans, pre-war purposes and pre-war attitudes. Every Negro leader of this country who has a grain of common sense knows that before the war of 1814 and before the war of 1917 there was a plan. Let me tell you now that the world is now returning to that plan. I have told you before what that plan was. It was a gradual process of elimination through common force. The war system and experience broke up and destroyed the plan and the leaders were unable to pay much attention to the exponent of the plan and the plan was suspended. But the exponent has passed and threw it nothing else for them to do but to fight to the plan. The plan is being worked out more time well to the result and if so and I list down and tilt the times we will find ourselves where the plan tended we should be. It is to free ourselves from it and there no other way than to get down comfort and seriously to put it into the gram of the Universal Negro League Association. I am not going to talk to you the African redemption because you have heard me on that already. You do not want to hear the same thing ever for you will get tired. But please take it for granted that everything I have said I meant they and still mean now and then you will have in your mind the position of the Universal Negro Improvement. As you go without the need of the having to tell you every thing. We are following someone and from them we have to tell them from them. Sir the University of Negro Education in the United States today took the new of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this time, and it calls for the greatest depth of thought; and surface to now we must not Not by surface intelligence must we lead and guide, but we have to lead and guide from the profoundest depth of whatever intelligence and judgment we have, and I do hope that in the New Year as all of us face it the we members and leaders will go forward with the one supreme object to par- over the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the best manner possible.

He placed course him to be a lover of architecture, of gambling, of painting, of the power with which he is understood enables him to choose from these planetary desires the best one. Many of us have made the mistake of our lives by choosing the one that we best, regardless of aspirations. Instead of forcing ourselves to like the one which will elevate us, although we make rapid progress, we are only progressing toward an ultimate goal of degradation. Friends, think soberly, though you are fond of gambling more than architecture. It is hard for us to resist the false allurements, but it's a certain that we will, by a determined will. An illustration: To obtain the grand and noble ideals which architecture demonstrates, we first have to abolish from our minds all other ideas and keep in view the one supreme idea of becoming an architect; and also we must ourselves entirely from everything that is opposed to the achievement of this noble purpose. Friends, it is hard, I can assure you, to rid minds of certain tendencies in which we enjoy the greatest pleasure, but providing that such are opposed to the achievement of our aim, we have to get rid of them if we want to arrive at the desired goal. We have to find pleasures and enjoyments in something else which contributes to the accomplishment of our desires.

AT YOUR BROADCAST OR DIRECT FROM Queens Mail Order House P. O. B. O. JAMAICA, N. Y. We fail in developing our long for nature we contribute to our accomplishments in "divine affair." Now, after this we have to be careless and honest in our words. Knowing, alas, that this is a world of sin, and, as the poet may, God did not pressure skies over blen, dowsers strewn pathways always for you," we should not be discouraged because of difficulties and embarrassments. We should take them as Anugusted blessings from a loving Father who cares for His children. Then we should find life as a school hickered of a torment, as some people take it. Again, we should be persevering in our efforts to rise and renew our determination when the road appears dark and dreary, knowing that after "darkness" comes "light." I am going to exercise these rules here laid down on myself in the highest sense, and I'll see if there is any "evil" force that can prevent me reaching the goal lost in the streets. "There is no death where there is determination to succeed," says Mr. Garvey. "Neither is there any failure where there is determination to succeed." If the present or the future God-sent leaders of the Negro race do not succeed in convincing these men to the principles of truth and righteousness we sincerely trust that sooner or later the Creator of mankind will kindle in their hearts the fire of brotherly love and bring them to a realization of the principles of truth and righteousness. We do hope they will be changed and with their intellect and inspiration spread the doctrines of this true and righteous cause to every corner of the universe. F. REDVERS McINTOSH.

To the Editor of The Negro World: Please allow me space in your valuable paper to express my bliss in the wonderful success of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company in procuring our first ship. I am one of those "new Negroes" that can always be heard promulgating the necessity of ships owned and controlled by Negroes. From time to time our people are so badly treated with the prejudiced feelings of segregation that I feel sure Negroes should inhale the essence of pride and be proud of the race owning and controlling ships for the purpose of developing our program industrially, commercially and otherwise. I, as a traveler, am proud, and pledge the support of the healthy solution of same. I also appeal to members of the Negro race to keep the standard high, remembering that the enemy of progress is always knocking, and the only way to keep him out is to give our support every way possible to the name Agrin. May God help you all of downroadless. so to o w direct our thoughts to the higher calling, of nat- turalism, so that we may be able to conjugate the many climates that may have arisen against us, in our racial advancement, also to be loyal and liberal, irrespective of existing circumstances, when we shall be able to send into oblivion the prejudiced feelings attri- ted to the Negro race.

Accentiated Stress Put On Mercantile Ventures To the Editor of The Negro World: Will you please allow me space in your "Forum" of "The Negro World" to express my gratitude to the Hon. Marcel Garvey, as well as yourself and staff for the "education in up-to-the-minute world events" handled out to us in your valuable columns. The Negro World is certainly full of vital race information, which every week I await with buoyant expectancy. Emulating our indomitable leader, the "Suretka Chapter" is forging its way ahead, using "dumbling stones" as "stepping stones" in assisting to put the program ever. If reasonable arrangements could be made with the famous race comedians, Sissie and Blake Company, their cosmopolitan brethren here - in Central America, Panama and the West Indies would be glad to hear them in the theatre available during the tour of our ship. My suggestion is intended to accentuate the financial status of our mercantile venture. With continued wishes for success. P. W. MORGAN. Suretha-Bocas del Toro. Indian Girls to Rank As the Best Typists LAWRENCE, Kan., Dec. 6.—Which nationality furnishes the best female stenographers? Ten guesses and it's a quart of Mumm's 1889 extra dry against a bottle of 1924 one-half of 1 percent that you're wrong. And that's some odds these days. To settle the matter quickly the answer is: The American Indian. According to government officials here they make the most accurate, highly efficient shorthanders and typists in the world. It is one of the lines of work that Indian maidens who attend the Haskell Institute here are taught. So great is the demand for them that the institution cannot turn them out fast enough. One of their real recommendations is that they know no such thing as time. If necessary they will stick to their work eighteen hours a day without frowning, looking at the clock or being sick the next day. Another is that in a room full of them there will never be any chatter. Complete silence all the working hours. Gifts are scorned where givers are despised.

NEGRO DOLLS II The spirit of the canonization of the Virgin Mary as the mother of Jesus, the "Black Man of Sorrows," still lives in the hearts of the new Negroes, which make up the rank and file of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. At the sitting of the Fourth International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World in Liberty Hall, New York City, the greatest subject for consideration was the Delification of Christ as the Black Man of Sorrows and the canonizing of the Virgin Mary as of Ethiopian Hinege. Burrowing on the altar of the hearts of these followers of this great spiritual movement, is the desire to set up a standard for the present and coming generations of our race. The wise men and shepheards were as much of Ethiopian blood, while our Caucasian brothers prefer to make us look up to his ideal of the star of Bethlehem as all white, significant of purity, thereby creating in the minds of our youths, white supremacy. The New York local can thereby boast of some of the most stalwart geniuses of the race, for from the rank and file of this local the most colorful, educational programs are arranged among Negroes anywhere. It is putting it mild to tell you that an extraordinary event in the history of the Ethiopian race, in the way of atmospheric splendor and largeness, will be yours for your benefit, when you attend this Dramatic Tableau on Sunday evening, December 28, at Liberty Hall, 138th street. Nothing more original and more beautiful will ever be seen. It battles for supremacy and will get it. For once, the realization beat the anticipation; assuredly this triumphant happening of the season, further cements our ideal and principles of One God, One Alm, One. Desist. The portraying of the Christ as an Ethiopian brings us neater to Him, and causes us to love and serve Him better, because it is unnatural to willingly love and serve a master whom you repulse on sight, since He is pictured always as white, and we are compelled to feel the pangs of segregation, discrimination, lynching, burning, outrasing our women, even in the land where He was born. Therefore, to love Him as we should, to show that unreserved gratitude for His birth, that He may grow and live here on earth among us, that we may return to God through His death, it is imperative that we Negroes behold Him, as the Black Man of Sorrows, and the bond of sympathy will never be broken. Since God has created us all in His own image, then we must see and worship Him. We as such, as far as the mind's eye. We realize that He, too, is a holy spirit, but it is His delight to be ever near to us, that we may almost touch Him. Consequently, if we bring ourselves to think of Him as "Ours," then He must be "Ours, an Ethiopian," when pictured. The idea of the manger and the Holy Child as caring a part of the Sunday evening's program, at this fitting season, came from Hon. George A. Weston, which was turned over to our spiendid designer of propaganda, pageants, floats and special decorator at headquarters, in the person of Mme. M. M. Shinperson-Young, will be enlarged upon, giving you the full story of the taxation period of the Roman empire, a decree from Caesar Augustus, the shepherds of the seven hills, watching their flocks, the Angel of Comfort, who said unto them "Bear not, for behold I bring you good tidings! I great joy, which shall be to all people." The three wise men carrying gifts to the Holy Child. The audience will then be permitted to pass by the manger, where Mary, Joseph, and the Babo are domiciled, since there was no room in the inn. Liberty Hall Choir of 50 voices, will sing fitting Christmas carols, and our silver and gold offering will be received by two Black Cross nurses who stand at the entrance of the manger. This offering will be used to further the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in its efforts to establish the one great truth: that Christ is in opus, because we believe we look like Him, and it is that holy bond of relationship, and He being our Elder Brother, which will cause us to become a great and prosperous race. They all want to pay taxes, every one unto his own city, therefore, Joseph went up from Galilee, out of the City of Nazareth into Judah, into the City of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David. THE CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLE OF TAKE WHAT YOU WANT It Has Individuals and Nations in Its Grip and Leads to All the Strife and Wars That Desolate the Earth Just how far the individual Christian has got away from the Christian philosophy of brotherhood and do unto others as you would that they do unto you is to be found in the very general disposition of buyers and sellers of the necessary things of life to get the best of the bargain. The disposition to pile on the price of things as far as the traffic will stand goes hand in hand with the protest against the price by the buyers, who go away and dicker the same way for anything they may to say, the average Christian has become selfishly self-centered and callous in getting the better of any transaction to which he may be a party. It may be pleaded that this is human nature. Yes, human nature at its worst and against which Jesus spent three years of preachment and a few hours of agony on the Cross. Jesus made the atonement for us all in the moral ethics of our relations one with the other, and what He gave us as an example we have either to live up to or suffer for falling short of. "All Scripture is given for ensample." And the spirit and the words and acts are as one for justification or condemnation. As it is with Christian persons so it has become with Christian Nations. The eternal principle of statesmanship appears to be to get the better of the other nation and to take and have and hold what you desire of the nation that is weaker than yours. It has been the loadstone of Christian statesmanship and is responsible for most of the wars which have desolated the earth from the crushing of Jerusalem by the Romans to the crushing of the Germans by the Allies. But crushed and crusher suffer almost as much in war's mad delirium. Since the Spanish American War the United States has followed the example of Europe in grabbing what is desired of weaker people for trade and strategic advantage, and justifying the wrong in the same way that European statesmen do it. But there is no justification, except by the rule that Might makes Right, and we all know that it does not, however self-interest may determine. And those who sow to the wind in these matters always reap the whirlwind.

A crista has arisen in the politics of Europe, because Great Britain has taken over virtually a Protectorate of Egypt and the Sudan country, because some radicals at Cairo murdered Genegal Stark. The Egyptian Government was not concerned in the murder, but the British hold it responsible, in the same way that Austria hold Serbia and precipitated the World War. The British have effected a bloodless revolution in Egypt, but the discontent in Egypt and the Sudan, and in all of the countries in Africa dominated by Europeans, will be increased and is liable at any time to break out into a devastating war. It is easy to indict an individual, but well nigh impossible to indict a nation. European oppression of Africans and Asiatics is fast coming to a crista which may easily become a tragedy of the nations.—Norfolk Journal and Guide. AWAKEI ARISEI AND GO By MINNIE SIMMONS AWAKE!

Numbers ' ‘ é : LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, December 21.— Notwithstanding the zero weather that gripped New York today, Liberty Hall showed no signs of diminution in the attendance. The men and women who make up the Universal Negro Improvesment | Association have shown time and again that they are made qf the sterner stuff that makes themi more determined in the face of adverse conditions; hence nothing--nay. net even the elements, can deter ther: from answering the call of the organization and from wor- shipping at the shrine from whence the doctrine of nianhood rights is preached, that has in the past served to inspire other races to rise } up and throw off the shackles of qppression and’ proscription and which, under the: auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is destined aise to bring the Megro race out of darkness into the light of a new day. Lo. Amgng the executive officers present were! Hons Marcus Garvey. Lady Menrieua Vinton Davis. Hon. Rudolph Smith, and Hon. “Percival \. Burrows. After the usual preliminaries ‘and a splendid musical program, Lady Davis delivered the opening speech in which she urged the members to maintain their hope in regard to the put- ting, over of the program of the organization, saying that events are shaping themselves iavorably in South Africa and the day was not far-distant when the race now resident in the Western hemisphere. shall be able-to claim not only a small spot in Airica but all of \ Africa. " : - aS a0, Percival V. Burrows made a plea-for more missionaries for the cause now that the influence of the organization was ‘showing itself in the defiant sttitude which is being taken by the natives in certain parts of .iriea. : ; + Hon. Rudolph Smith pleaded ior co-operation and declared that the time has come for every Negro to stand together in their efforts | to build up Africa. . Hon. Marcus Garvey in his speech called attention to the fact that | the Négro not only in America and the (Vestern world, but all over | the world, was facing, the must trying period ai his racial existence, and the need of intelligent leadership was more vital now than ever. "The organization, he declared, has reached the stage of ati institution where itstleaders mes: not only be mere talkers but they must be | deep thinkers and pinuners for the future gued of the people. The, world wis watching and judgiay the trend uf the Negro's theugint| through the expressions amd attitude of their leaders, henee it was | for the Negro ty present the best possible leadership. In doing so. | if it were necessary to vemove Marcus Garvey from leadership of; the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the good ‘of the { race, he was willing to step down and help to get some one better. | To this vemark the aindience responded “Nu!” in unison, and re-| moved aay doult as to whom they desired for leadership of the} organization. My. Garscy, in Concluding, expressed the hope that in the New Year thé members aad leaders will go forward with the one supreme wbicet ai patting over the program in the best manner possible. . . : Bomkoins $6 (he yeaa tee since : .

It will be a week of transition from the old to the new. It means a great deal in the life of persons, races and nations, more than appears on the surface. The world has been in travail and agony for quite a full quarter of a century. The warlike spirit was abroad in the nations and there were wars almost over the entire period, beginning with the Russian-Japanese war, and while there is a condition of peace now everywhere the influences that make for armed strife are active on all of the continents. In this season of the year, with all that it means to Christians in their relations with each other and those who are not Christians, let us all hope that it will be a long time before there shall be another general war of nations. The good work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association continues to grow in scope and grasp and never exercised a more and better influence upon the Negro people of the world than at this time. The future is big with promise. The staff of The Negro World extends greetings of the season to its readers and to all the members of the association and to its high and responsible officials, with the hope that the incoming year may be the banner one in the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its President-General, Marcus Garvey.

Almost any day one may find in the papers some new piece of comedy about racial relations, solemnly delivered by a so-called thinker. The latest caper is that of the Rev. Dr. Samuel M. Zwener, who addressed the Federal Council of Churches, Dr. Zwener tells them to look out. Morocco and Egypt are making trouble and the rising tide of color is getting busy. As a final peril he says that 12,000 Mohammedans are scattered through America, working on us with the evil propaganda of Mohammedan religion. Well, what if they are? The Moslems have just as much right to spread their religion among us as we have to spread our religion among them. We send missionaries all over the world. At Constantinople we have Roberts College, a Christian institution. If this is just, and we believe it is, why would it not be just and proper ior the Turks to establish a Mohammedan college in New York or Boston? Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, and the world is beginning to see that the gander eats his sauce. THOSE WHO DREAM DREAMS AND SEE VISIONS FOR many years people have discussed telepathy, which may be defined as communication between human beings without word, look, gesture or other movement. Many have said that the so-called telepathy was merely hyperaesthesia, or exaggerated sensibility, and for want of scientific proof to the contrary, their view has been generally accepted. Now comes the Earl of Balfour, not only a renowned statesman and former Prime Minister of England, but a scholar and philosopher of considerable repute, who says that telepathy is an established fact. We always respect the opinions of a British Prime Minister even in matters unrelated to statesmanship, for England never puts a man in that office unless he knows what he is talking about at all times. Lord Balfour recently participated in some experiments at the meeting of the Society for Psychical Research. A man was found able to receive and report accurately the thoughts of a party of men seated two rooms away from him with the doors closed. Lord Balfour was convinced that "there is a wholly unknown method of traversing space between two conscious organisms." That much is certainly true. Two sympathetic people often have the same thought simultaneously or in close succession. Why is it that some one else, often a stranger, says the very thing you were going to say? Why is it that a woman can tell that a man loves her, though he may never look at her or speak to her? Try this experiment: Enter a trolley or a crowded store, pick out some person who is not busy at the time, and without looking at him or her, concentrate all your thoughts upon him or her. After a minute or so he or she will turn and look searchingly at you. Of course telepathy is still in the empirical stage. Like love, it is not a science, but it is a fact. Is it too bold to predict that some day people will converse by thoughts instead of words? HAT keeps us alive? In the last analysis we say food. Our stomachs rule our entire body, therefore we should be very careful what we eat. Many of us eat what we do not what we know is good for us. In the first letter the average college student writes home to the tell about dissatisfaction with the meals. The letter has the usual pathetic ending. "Really, mother, if I was home, some of your hot biscuits laden with butter would certainly go good through here." At home, mother thinks nothing if you have a second helping to everything on the table, and thinks you are ill if you don't eat heartily. At college there is many a wry face at the dinner table when the meal is over. That same student realizes before the end of the term why mother's table differs from the college table, much to his advantage. Science teaches us that all foods growing under the ground are good for the blood, they all contain a certain amount of iron. A member of the staff of The Negro World asked, in a lunch room, the other day for a lettuce sandwich. It created much laughter. The usual request is for a "ham and egg," or "rast pork sandwich." By the time you finish that you feel as though you have had a meal. Anyway, the little lady bought her lettuce sandwich and a big red apple. She seemed perfectly satisfied when the lunch hour was over. Her brain was not overburdened with a gang of meat, and she went banging away on her machine with a clear head. THE HOPE OF THE FUTURE WORK OF THE PRESENT. By T. Thomas For There is a familiar saying half the world does not know the other half lives, and do care. That is a very sw statement, but there is truth in it. After all, the we live in is a very small. Have you ever considered matter? The people we are our families and neig and we do not always know If our women and mothers would give more consideration to food values for the children, the children would get along much better in their studies. The foreign boy and girl open their lunch at school and take out an orange, apple or a bunch of grapes. Maybe they have one small sandwich. The Negro boy and girl have two large meat sandwiches, and either a piece of pie or cake, not a dainty slice but a "hunk." They generally always have a nickel or dime to spend for candy or more cake. When test time comes, the poor little Negro child holds its head from overweight, and wonders what the answer should be. The fruit-fed child answers the queries with ease. This is not true of all Negro children, as there are some of our women who read continually what to do for the benefit of the household in general. We want our children well fed but not over fed. It means a high food bill, and a hindrance to the child's education. A child can not be given too much fruit or too many vegetables. The best chocolates now and then are all right, but less meat and pastry will give fewer stomachaches and healthier children with a well nourished brain. And most of our grown-ups eat too much meat and pastry and too little vegetables, fruits and nuts. STRANGE WAYS OF 1NVENTORS CHESTER T.

CROWELL, writing in the Saturday Evening Post, reminds us of the old truth that you never can tell who will turn out to be an inventor. Contrary to the popular belief, many of the great inventions were made by the men least expected to make them. No one would expect a dreamy portrait painter to invent the steamboat, but Robert Fulton was an artist. So was Samuel Morse, inventor of the telegraph. Eli Whitney, a schoolmaster, invented the cotton gin. How many people know that the swivel chair, so common in business offices, was invented by Thomas Jefferson, better known to posterity as the writer of the Declaration of Independence, third President of the United States and eloquent exponent of political democracy? Thomas Paine, known as the great infidel, invented the iron bridge. Abraham Lincoln, in his early days, invented a contrivance for lifting flat-bottom boats off sand bars. Stranger still, a mini-ter invented the power loom. The spinning frame came from the mind of a barber, yet it was not a barber who invented the safety razor. Doubless his commercial instincts were against it. It seems that Edison is a great exception; that most of the famous inventors were not of a mechanical turn of mind, but were poets, artists, lawyers, clergymen and government officers. Perhaps no other line of human endeavor presents such apparent contradictions of human nature as the field of invention. It is another proof of the poet's saying that "God moves in a mysterious way." EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS While it is true that any organization be conducted about business lines and according to business principles, the trouble with the organized church day is that it has exhalted the business end of its adapts to the document of the spiritual end. It has placed temporal success and power above spiritual need and well-being and as such has become distinctly a large business institution, looking to dividends and profits, investments and returns the same as any other organic business institution.—Chicago Enterprise. The white race should seek to have the friendship of the other races. Friendship is predicated upon mutual respect and just declaims. It is too bad that man will waste life's short day on strife and hate against his fellowman, when there is a better way—Indiana's Freeman. It is a sign of the times that our race men and women are demanding the best things for their money and are fast waking to the fact that we must demand some measure of business reciprocity for the large pay roll that is going into the tills of the white merchant.-Omaha Ira. During our recent campaign, we discovered our political strength, and in order to benefit therefrom, we must have a oneness in purpose and a unity of action. Individual strivings must be set aside for racial interests. Another central organization should be discouraged; until we have failed, after sincere efforts, to make what we have ideal.-Bectrot. Independent. The man who really reads a modern newspaper and does not merely skim through it, receives a liberal education in the arts and sciences, the humanities, the psychology of human nature, and is informed upon a variety of things which only a few years ago no one man could hope to know. Echo (Red Bank), N. J. Advertising From the Ato-American. While advertising has helped millions of farm homes to greater efficiency, it has also raised the standards of business. It is the word of the house to the customer. Manufacturers and distributors realize that readers must receive exactly what is promised, in advertised products. No man of experience will put his name or brand on inferior articles because, it is plain business suicide to advertise an unworthy product. Hundreds of successful businesses have grown from a good idea, nurtured with advertising. Advertising attracts new customers, broadens the market and quality brings repeat orders.

President Virgin Islands Congressional Council This Christmas in the Virgin Islands will not be like other Christmasmas that have recently passed from the memory of their inhabitants. Even the oldest growth on the islands agrees that not since the Americans look over the islands in 1917 has there been such genuine and widespread rejoicing among the people. The reasons for this are twofold and the first of them is not easy to set down in cold type. It is the realization that their brothers and sisters, their sons and daughters, cousins and friends in America have not forgotten them, and never intend to, that the spiritual bond of patriotism and blood-brotherhood can reach across fourteen hundred miles of sea as though it were a living thing and give practical assurance of its presence and strength. The second concerns these practical assurances themselves which take form as help for the poor and distressed—money and foodstaffs, clothes for the little ones and the old people—and tons of things that join in one vast stonitorian voice to say, "Merry Christmas!" so loud that it can be heard from New York to Uncle Sam's Virgin Islands. For today in the Virgin Islands they are shouting the praises of the people in New York, those who emigrated from the islands to better their conditions and have not forgotten those whom they left behind. Only a short time ago a foolish "old man" in St. Thomas was scolding the Virgin Islanders in New York for presuming to instruct themselves in the governmental affairs of the Virgin Islanders at home. In August occurred the hurricane which devastated St. Thomas and left hundreds of the inhabitants destitute. Immediately upon news of the disaster the Virgin Islanders in New York under the leadership of the Virgin Islands Congressional Council, got together and raised the sum of $1,000 to be disbursed by the local branch of the American Red Cross for relief. Today in St. Thomas no man of color can be found to maintain that the folks in New York are not one with the folks at home. And so it has gone on for three years—a record of voluntary co-operation of a people few in numbers, separated by the sea and different social conditions, yet one in the district of their hearts—fighting the devil of race prejudice, the sting of Congressional neglect, the sweeps of trafure and the discouragement of dew rds; quietly THE HOPE OF THE FUTURE WORK OF THE PRESENT. There is a familiar saying that half the world does not know how the other half lives, and does not care. That is a very sweeping statement, but there is much truth in it. After all, the world we live in is a very small world. Have you ever considered that matter? The people we know are our families and neighbors, and we do not always know them but think we do. And the average person's world is narrowed to his immediate family in the finality of it, and he can't always depend upon his own family. It was only after his crucifixion that the family of Jesus, the son of Mary, began to realize that he was not as one of them, but something entirely different. In no family of many children will you ever find any two alike in feature and purpose. They are seldom as one with the father or the mother. They get along together as children but as soon as they can they break away from the family circle and take up with strangers and make family ties of their own. Why is that? We don't find it so among the other animals, which reproduce themselves in their likeness and habits and thoughts from generation to generation. Man is the only animal that produces over and over a family of differentiates, with no two alike and few like their common parents in anything. Here is a mystery. But at this season of the year we all turn to the family and the children as the best that life gives us. This is so even with those who have no family ties or such as are broken and a source of sorrow and regret, and Christendom is full of such people. It is said that the author of "Home, Sweet Home" never knew the joys of home after the passing of his childhood. He wrote out of the longings of a broken heart, as many of us have to do, and expressed the idealism which is the aspiration of every normal person. But because we realize so few of aspirations is no reason why we should not have them and cling to them and seek always to translate them into facts. And that leads necessarily to the conclusion that the hope of the future is the work of the present. That is to say, if we do not build for the future, near and remote, if we do not save, we can have small expectations in the outcome. That is the main reason why families, fathers and mothers, make such great sacrifices and deny themselves so many of the things of life they would care to have, in order to give their children the proper education, the proper training, to meet the hard exactions of life - education and training which many parents were unable to receive when they were young and looked into the mysteries of the future and seeing no further into them than most do. The present generation of Negroes will never properly appreciate the sacrifices and denials that their parents, right out of slavery and empty handed, made that their children should have some education of the schools, some training, which they could not enjoy in the slave days. And we should not forget those dear fathers and mothers. Their sufficient monument is the success those sons and daughters are now having in all of the walks of American life. Let us prepare, provide, today for tomorrow. Let us look way ahead in the future and help in the present to make that future a better one than we have known. Sobriety, industry, thrift, civic and race pride—busy today with the works that will live and make for strength and happiness—that is the duty which the lessons of this transcendent season impresses upon us all. Greetings of the season are mine to the readers of this column. We have had a pleasant association the past year; may our association the coming year be more pleasant. co-operating to improve the general condition, waging an impressive propaganda warfare against the Yorces of greal, unrighteousness and pride; teaching themselves the lessons of mutual-help and self-confidence—this is the essence of what. Virgin Islanders have achieved in less than three years, and this is what makes the Christmas in the Virgin Islands a thing which the people treasure. And, as the joy bell flies forth their Christmas greetings, the ear of fancy hears them on either side of the side: "Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas—and a Happy New Year." THE "PEACE ON EARTH; GOOD WILL TO MEN" All through the spent ages, As runs the sacred story, In the blank and covered pages, From Eden, the Den; mystic, dread and gory, In the old and new fest of men, We nothing know of whence or when! Are we detelved in all— Believing and hoping, only to find However oft we rise, we fall. Moving always in confused doubt, blind. Seeking salvation, but ignorant Of the Word—vague, ugly, ghostly, gaunt! The Atonement—what is it? The new test of men—who can say. What that may signify? Priest nor prophet Has told us in the light of our day. Can there be light where mental darkness reigns In baffled hopes and agonizing pains? John lost his head. And Jesus lost His life upon the Cross. That all be saved; yet, all are dead. And, living, die! The gold of life is dross. There is no "Peace on earth, good will to men!" The rule of greed and hate and strife Still dominates in all of Life. HEALTH TOPICS By DR. B. B. HERBEN of the New York Tuberculosis Association The Baby Whose Head "The other day a mother asked me to explain why her baby's pillow was always wee after the child had been sleeping. She also said that the little forehead would be damp during the sleep. The good neighbor next door had "sort of pooh-poohed the idea" that it was a sign of something wrong, but the mother remained anxious and finally wrote to me about it. I am glad that she did ask me, for the reason that between us we discovered what the trouble was and sent the little chap to the doctor in time to prevent serious trouble and perhaps deformity. The child had rickets. What is rickets and why should it be feared and prevented? To begin with, tickets is a disease due to some trouble with the digestion, or the supply of food. It shows itself in many ways, but principally in the deformity of the bones which cannot develop properly without the necessary food materials. This deformity may be so severe that when the child grows into maturity he or she may have difficulty. This is particularly true of girls, for the bones of the pelvis must be of proper shape if it is to be possible to live through the ordeal of child birth, or to have a normal delivery. And right here I might say that the time to begin the care of the mother is when she is a baby herself. This food defies new which causes rickets may begin before birth because of a lack of proper food taken by the mother. It may begin after birth, particularly if the baby has to be fed by bottle. A baby may show symptoms of this trouble at a time between the ages of six months and three or four years. Some of the early signs are tired. The baby may become restless, he may not sleep so soundly, or to be at a time. The baby perishes and particularly about the head and face. The pillow may be damp or really wet. The child is pale and looks as though it were not getting enough to eat. There is apt to be constipation and sometimes there are convulsions. (To be continued) FOR THE NEW YEAR LET THE NEGRO WORLD BE YOUR PAPER Negro Press Marks Rapid Development of the Race From the Denver Star Within the past, decade no factor of Negro growth has marked a greater stride forward than has the Negro press. The journalistic infant of yesterday is nearly full grown today, and the reading public is being served weekly and, in fact, daily, by Negro newspapers, magazines and bulletins financed by Negro capital, male-up and set-up by Negro printers and linotypers, and put on the streets and into the mails from Negro publishing houses, manned with up-to-date equipment and supplied with material gathered by skilled Negro reporters. In fact, the 81 printers and bookbinders apprentices: 78 electrotypes, stereotypers and lithographers; 1,244 printing and publishing laborers; 1,595 semiskilled printing and publishing operatives, and the 101 pressmen and plate printers, to say nothing of the linotypers, make-up and lay-out men, working upon Negro presses, and the many feature story writers, reporters and operatives working upon some of America's most famous white presses prove that the Negro journalistic venture has taken a broad leap within the past few years. The most significant result of this progression, however, is found in the new habits of Negro readers. This class of reading clientele has learned to 'put dependence upon the Negro press. Strange though it may seem, Negro people are now looking to their own papers for the truth—the whole truth—abort Negro events. These readers know that the white press aims, first, to tell a story which is most pleasing to its hosts of white readers. When features too favorable to Negro narrative subjects are gummie to a story, Negro readers have learned that their white contemporaries will "cut" the story to suit them. THE ONCE VIRGIN ISLANDS UNDER AMERICAN FLAG (From the New York World) Stop for the moment to consider those fifty-three small bits of land we bought from Denmark, called the Virgin Islands. They cost us $25,000,000. We have forgotten them as completely as last winter's overshirts. But for six years they have enjoyed the blessings of our rule. It seems that they have even begun to look a little like us. Freshly stamped, and printed, there comes from Washington a report of Secretary of Labor Davis of these islands of the Blessed Virgin. Why the Secretary of Labor should be reporting on our overseas possessions may appear a mystery; but the islanders it seems, appealed for an investigation and, with Mr. Coolidge's approval, Secretary Davis set about it. He appointed a commission. Now comes its report. It is a most instructive document. These islanders are "clean, bright, genial, honest." They have very little crime, live principally on farms, are "peaceful and intelligent." Ninety-eight per cent, of them can read and write, which is "excuse it, please—a little better than the rest of us at home. Not all of that, however, has kept the Islands happy. Times are hard. Imports in 1922 were less than half the importor for the year before. Exports fell from $3,500,000 to a fifth of that figure. Mr. Davis's commission gives four reasons why. There was a drought. There was shift of steamship routes which placed the islands' by. But ahead of those two factors the commission lists another two. First, that we have "treated the islands as an outpost of defense for the Panama" Cavalry Second, Prohibition—"which crippled the bay-rum industry of the islands." Now, it is this bay-rum point which intercepts us as good Americans. For it is a point not altogether by itself, but accompanied by certain other manifestations of the great American tradition. Here were certain peaceful islands governed by the Danes, inhabited by black men owing what property they had to balsam for the white man's hair. The Virgin Islands, little as we may have known about the fact, produced the best bay rum in Christendom, exporting annually some 60,000 gallons. Along came Prohibition. It was decreed by law that the importation of bay rum he stopped, left white men drink other's hair tones. The bay-rum industry was forced to seek a distant and less profitable market. We have sent these island folk one sample of our all-suppressing morals. It seems that we have given them a state of politics as well. Under the Danes they were accustomed to a governor who lived among them, long enough to learn his business. We Americans have sent them seven governors in thirty-seven months. It is part of the American tradition for as many people as possible to take turns in public office. Politics and moral: we should like to send these people our own ethics too. They are, Mr. Davis's commission finds, "as moral as any people in the West Indies." Yet their ways of marriage are not our ways. And the commission finds that mournful. "It is advisable," says this report, "that all marriages should conform to our own standards of marital relations." Why not? We bought these islands. They are America. And you cannot be American without marrying the way we marry, eating the way we eat, and wearing clothes that smother the human body regardless of the temperature. What nation was it, if not our own, that passed a law for bathing-trunks on the beach at Walkikki? Far out in the Atlantic, lapped by tropic waters under a turquoise sky, sleeps the latest conquest, of this Northern Nation: a little laboratory in Americana. selves. Hence the former lean heavily upon its own press for the last word. The Negro press is performing a wholesome service, which has only begun to be felt. It has caused its readers to think as never before. They are not easily influenced by propaganda. They know that their own papers will fight their cause. First, last and always. They know that the destinies of their sons and daughters are bound up in the whole, rather than the part. For the final truth as to the whole they look to the Negro press, which has at last come unto its own. May it long live and preserve. Threatens the Cotton Growing Monopoly of the United States-One of the Reasons Why Egypt Was Forced to Surrender Her Independence and the Sudan Country From the Nation In her recent demands which have been accepted by Egypt, England to up the Sudan treaties and eliminated even the shadow of Egyptian control in that region. Some of the economic factors behind that action and behind the demand for an unlimited extension of the Gezira irrigated area (hitherto limited to protect Egypt's water supply) are indicated in the following article in the 1923-1924 annual edition of the African World published at Cape Town: Mr. F. Eckstein, chairman of the Sudan Plantations Syndicate, Ltd., is engaged on a work in which there is none bigger in the empire today. That work consists in bringing to fruition the aims and ambitions of his company and its subsidiary, or sister, concern, the Kassalg Cotton Company. Together they are achieving in the Sudan the most gigantic cotton-growing proposition the world has ever known. The stay-at-home individual, or even the Lancashire cotton spinner, does not realize the immensity of the proposition. Measurements of fields are not in acres or thousands of acres, but in hundreds of thousands; localities are not restricted, but extend to the north, south, and east of Khartum-along the Nile and, in the Kassala region, in the delta of the Gash River, whose waters never reach the sea but spread on, mundulating fertile fields. When the Geera and Kassala plains are in their first stage fully planted the acreage and in cotton will be over 500,000 acres to be harvested as these creeps on and displacement works stride forward. The crop over practically all this acreed territory will be under the auspices of the Sudan Government. In the hands of the Sudan Plantations Syndicate, who will leading spirit is beyond doubt Mr. K. Hikshim himself. Compare these figures, a modest estimate ten years hence, with America, where the biggest single cotton operation held in one hand is only 15,000 acres! So much for the size of the Sudan Plantations Syndicates' operations in the Sudan. The real significance, however, of the work they have undertaken does not lie in the colossal screege under their control, but in the cotton they produce. Rockoning at a rough estimate there to four (the doubt more bales of cotton to the feddun or type of cotton an output of compile grown cotton that contains respect. Add to it the fact that this cotton is of the quality available, the cost of cotton that can be most amenable to purchase for her intitial demand. Sudan proportion acquires name and a new respect. Moreover, commercial places of even green or import or will be afflicted by the Gegha and Kisala undertakings. It is noted that the cotton growing in the Nile is the decision and has been in the memory of the past ten years. Labor is expensive or unmanageable, so much so that certain spacing operations have now already to be undertaken by aeroplane, thus greatly enhancing the cost of production per acre and the selling price of cotton per bale. These questions do not arise in the Sudan. At first it was thought by some that the question of labor would kill any cotton-growing promotion on a big scale. The Mahldīt's work, they argued, had designated the native population, and Egyptian fell the finch-breed by, and having the Sudanese, could not, even if such had been the intention of the authorities, be coaxed south of Wadi Halk. But what has happened? An era of peace and prosperity having settled on the Sudan under the British flag, the population is increasing within the country, while without there is a continual inflow of "Hansa, Fellata, and other tribes from Nigeria and other places". Obviously, therefore, the labor question may be regarded as by no means so dangerous as small-minded or short-sighted little owners in the Kirkum area originally thought. This being so, one can assume that at no very distant date, the Sudan Plantations Syndicate will be able to market a fine quality cotton on a big and ever bigger scale at a lower cost of production than that marketed by the Americans. The effect, at first, will be small, but it will gather and grow like an avalanche, and in the end it can have but one economic result, namely, the freeing of Lancashire from serfdom to the cotton speculators of New York and the Mississippi, whose refined cotton operations cost in Lancashire industry a loss of £1,000,000 per week! That is the meaning, the real meaning, of the work now being undertaken and rapidly pushed by the Sudan Government in happy conjunction with the Plantations Syndicate. It is imperial and not local in nature; in aspect it is vast, and the possibilities attached thereto are so immeasurable that to analyze them, or to picture an empire freed from dependence on America for one of the world's most valuable raw products, is utterly impossible. But, at any rate, viewed from this commanding angle, the digging and sowing and planting and building now being hurried on in Kassala, Makwar, Zedidab, Tulur, and elsewhere will convince us that the vision of the men who conceive this plan years ago was not that of ordinary individuals intent merely CONGRESS OF ISLAM MAY RE- STORE CALIPHATE Many Mohammedans Displeased with the Action of Turkey in Deposing the Head of the Church Three Leading Candidates for the Office Early this winter a Pan-Blahamic Congress will convene to discuss the question of the Caliphate. Representatives from every country and province where Moslems dwell, including America, will gather to decide what action Mohammedans shall take to meet the unusual situation created by Turkey's abolition of the ceded office of the commander of the faithful and the expulsion of its last occupant from Turkish territory. Tentative plane call for the convocation of the Congress in Cairo; but as of late objections have been raised to this choice in certain quarters. It is possible that another place will be designated. Probably not since the conquest of Egypt by Turkey in 1517 and the assumption of Caliphal authority by Sultan Salim has a question of equal importance agitated the minds of Musulmans. The problem of the on floating humidigm concerns. They looked ahead. Nevertheless, it must not be premised from the foregoing that these men, these empire-builders—in the same sense, though not along the same path as Cecil Holmes—were casting bread on the waters for an idea only. One of the happiest features of the work of the Sudan Plantations Syndicate is that, while planning the great scheme, its board of directors, always in close touch with the Government at Khartum, were able, long before the big work was put in hand, to lay the foundations of a solid business paying very acceptable dividends. Starting in a relatively small way on a purely experimental scale in various parts of the country, they made these experiments pay, thus proving that cotton-growing in the Sudan could be made exceedingly profitable, and that, if any one syndicate or group could, by private enterprise, daring, and ability help the government to exploit such potential territories as the Gezira, that group was the Sudan Plantations Syndicate itself. Having proved which, they ipso facto reaped the natural reward. If we may say so, they are still on the threshold of their career: ten years hence they will be among the most powerful and influential organizations in Africa, and certainly the largest cotton-growing and marketing organization in the world. We have not dealt here with figures and statistics. . . . Suffice it that the experimental state is over; that by next July the minor irrigation canals for 300,000 acres will have had to be due; that plowing will begin by next October, and that in 1825 the Makker Dam, being constructed by the Sudan Government, will have been completed and water begin to flow down the new channels into the prepared fields. This latter work is itself stupendous, and were it not for the consensual energy of the company's staff on the spot it would be nigh impossible. But we can rely on its being done to time, and then will begin the real career of the syndicate. It cannot be other than successful. For, as stated, the foundations have been too well built for failure. In conclusion, we must frankly admit that for the men at the head of the Plantations Syndicate, who nursed it from its infancy sixteen years ago, and waving cotton fields, we have the very are now looking ahead into a land of greatest admiration. Imaginative and undaunted, diplomatic and able business men, organizers and men of tireless activity, they have created a new created, or assisted in creating, a new Sudan beside which the fields of Georgia and Alabama pale. They are carrying out, or assisting thereto, the dreams of Cromer, who, according to Mr. Bohotun, dreamed that one day rallyways would be constructed from Kunik from Albaen, from Khartum to El Obid, from Albaen to Kosana; that one, or two dams would be built on the Blue Nile; and that the Gunin Plain would be developed. Caliphate touches the very heart of Mohammedanism as a religious-political system, and its solution, new again pressed to the fore after centuries of adjustment, may have a far-reaching effect on the great masses in Islam. Followers of the Prophet have not given up their belief in the need of his representative on earth. The terming millions of Moalms in Asia, Africa and Europe is silent; antir over the brusque manner in which the leading Islamic nation by a decision of Parliament has deprived Mohammedanism of a spiritual head. Even in Turkey grumbles are beginning to be heard against Kemal Pasha's sweeping reform. The opposition which, according to the newspapers, the president of the Turkish republic recently encountered in the National Assembly from his, former close friends and associates is said to be founded largely on the growing resentment on the Turkish people against their radical leaders. Another question which the Pan-Islamic Congress will be called upon to settle is the Emirship of Mecca. It is now vacant owing to the flight of Shefid Hussain, King of the Hedjaz from the Holy City, which has been occupied by his age-long enemy Sultan Ibn-e-Saoud, the Arab warrior and leader of the Wahabis inhabiting the neighboring native principality of Neld. In the eyes of Mohammedans Hussain is guilty of a double crime. Appointed by the Turkish Sultan, to the Grand Sherif of Mecca, he rebelled against his sovereign in 1915 and became an ally of the British, who made him King of the Hedjaz. Later when the Calliph, Abdul Mejid, was banished by the Turkish Government Hussain aggrogated to himself the office of the Commander of the Faithful. He now lives in a secluded spot in Akabah, where, according to some who are in a position to know, he has brought with him a personal fund of £3,000,000. He is therefore considered out of the race for any of the posts of responsibility and honor within the gift of the Mussulman Congress. There are three important candidates for the Caliphate. The old Caliph Abdul Medjid; the present ruler of Egypt, Khediys Fuaad, who is anxious to retrieve the holy relic and resaint the Caliphate which had been taken away by Turkey, and Sherif Al Haidar, Emi of Mecca, who replaced Hussein and was himself compelled to withdraw by the defeat of Turkey in the recent war. The former Caliph is still hopeful of reclaiming his post, an spiritual head of Islam. His candidacy is understood to be supported by India. Residing in Paris, he is receiving a monthly allowance of £2500 from the Nisam of Udehdad, ruler of a native Indian State. His rival and chum, Al Haidar, is backed by the Mohammedan races and tribes of Asia Minor and Egypt. Arab, Syrian and Egyptian papers at the present time are devoting considerable care to praising All Haidar. They refer to him as the only man possessing the qualities of spiritual leader-hip and worldly wisdom necessary to unite the Moslem world, which is threatened by external dangers and internal dissension. While All Haldar's elevation to the Caliphate may not be regarded as certain, there is very little doubt that he will again be elected Emir of Mecca, if he chooses to accept the office. The entire Mosleh world is unanimous in its desire to see him restored to the office of Haldar. Sultan Husain Sound, who now holds the City of Mecca, has invited Ali Haldar to return to the Holy City and become its Emir. This, however, the latter declined to do for the time being. Recently a large delegation of Musulman leaders called on him in Constantinople to urge him to accept the Emirship, but the visitors were told that he could not consider their request unless it came from, some official, well recognized Mosleh authority. That his election is certain is attested by the fact his oldest son, Sharif Abdul Medjid, who is in Lebanon, Syria, has been paid an official call by the heads of the local and French Governments. King Ali, son of Hussein, who also fled before the Wahabis, is reported to be gathering his forces to free Hedjaz from the invaders. It is real at all unlikely this represents the first step in a military campaign to forestall the action of the Pan-Islamic Congress in appointing All Haidar Emir of Mexico. At the same time the inhabitants, of Akabah are said to be uneasy over the presence of the fugitive Hussein in their midst, and, realizing the dangers to which this presence exposes them, are using the fallen King to leave. Their fears have probably been aroused by the report that Ibn-e-Saoud has again left for Hedjaz, where his troops, said to be the best trained Arab fighters, number 200,000. Sharf All Hildar is an erudite Moslem scholar who is also highly cultured in the European sense. He has only one wife—the daughter of an English general. Faisal, one of his sons by an earlier marriage, is a graduate of Cambridge University, and two other sons, Abdul Medjid and Mohindind, hold degrees from the University of Constantinople. His two daughters attended the English High School for Girls in that city. According to Prince Sharif Mohidhudin, his son now in this country, All Haldar, when elected will endeavor to introduce school and other reforms to make his kingdom more advanced culturally, and independent economically. America is his ideal in all matters educational and industrial. The prince is anxious to help his father, put into practice some of the ideas which he has learned to admire in this country. The soil, the climate and the industrialism of the Arab population favor the success of the reforms. All Haldar takes great pride in the native talent of his people for arabicque and instructional work. Professor C. Baldam, noted Russian painter, who is now in this country, speaks of some of the EXPLORENS SEEK TRACES OF AN AFRICAN 'JOAN' "La Kabena," Berber Heroine, Was Inspired by Voices and Visions Count de Prorok Hopps to Find Her Secret Tunnel On either side of the Mediterranean history is attempting to harmonize its "Joan of Arc" legends with tangible fact. In France, churchmen, psychists, and scholars representing all factions of the old controversy, ransack the archives to subglantate or refute the "voices and visions" of the martyred Maid of Orleans. Ever since Jeanne's colonization there has been a continuous delving into diplomatic papers, treaties, memoirs, and the records of her own trial and the 1450 trial of rehabilitation. Now among the ruins of dead cities on the southern shores of the Mediterranean archaeologists are searching for traces of the African "Joan of Arc," Like the Maid of Orleans, La Kahena, the Herber heroline, was the emancipator of her people. She, too, led an army to victory, succeeding in driving the Arab hordes back to Tripoli. "Voices and visions" and the gift of prophecy also guided her struggle for freedom from a foreign domination, at the close of the eighth century. As her title "La Kahena" implies, she was a priestess or sorcerer. It was believed of her, as of the simple Joanne, that her power was coded in supernatural inspiration. In any event it was absolute and eduring, and throughout her leadership she was regarded as the incarnation of the spirit of patriotism. Basking a Lost Tunnel Exploration x. El Djem by Court Byron Kiah de Prins, under the auspices of the Seychelles Atlas of the French Government, him to discover a subterranean passage that, according to tradition, "La Kahena" built during her warfare with Hassan of Egypt. The Arab chronicle Roi Khaldoun relates that it connected her fortress—the largest and most perfectly preserved Roan amphitheatre in North Africa—with Sallena on the sea, a distance of twenty miles. He describes it as "a wide enough to accommodate three houseboats aboard." This year a preliminary survey was made of the site of the amphitheatre. Next it ing a detachment of the Franco-Italy expedition will begin excavations. Meanwhile the amphitheatre encroaching sea at Salutea is is situated in the uncovering of Paraclysm with which the rocks are buried. It is hoped that this excavation at this point soon will lead to the discovery of the mouth of the river among the tombs. The true name of the Marian Bish of Arc is unknown. She is supposed to be of the family of Dumma, daughter of Taleaia son of the daughter of Taleaia son of the her title of "Dahahi" or queen comes from her rank as Queen of the Dumma quinch, a Berber tribe of the Amazons that had been converted to Judaism. So far it has been impossible to place the origin of the Dari family. After pedigree is lost in antiquity, although they are the oldest known of North African peoples, and the descendants of the Libyan general of the Dari tribe are fairly trained, blue-eyed and of first complexion. The feet are not found on some of the earliest Libyan cultures. The herds influence in Dari Carthage is seen in the Lahani customs and in the point of Tangy the supreme deity of the Carthagian Etymologists are stirring to look the appellation of the goddess of the words of the ruler of the Carthagian prehistoric Africa (Call) the Prince holds the thouls that the Dari through their Lahani ancestors descendants from the Ati-tepees who survived in the Hongar plate of the Sahara, after the submergence of their stand home.

He often visited the former Emir, at his palace in Tekamidjish, near Sultan, where he had occasion to observe the Sharific dignified Life and love for art and music. Once, while painting his host and engrossed in the act of bringing out the details of the altars hand, Professor Feldman was surprised to see the prince get up, leave the room and return with a book in Arabic, from which he read with pride an observation that a qur'an hand was a true index to his character.

In reality they clung to their old beliefs and maintained their racial identity. In the struggles that convulsed North Africa they remained aloof, content with merely watching the conflict. From time to time they were compelled to seek refuge from the more ruthless invaders in their mountain mastresses on the front of the desert. At the show of the long and bitter wars of Islam, the Arabs were strong enough to punish their first footwork in North Africa by chasing the Byzantine power. It was the signal to shine off the yoke. The Berbers prepared for resistance under the banner of Kovno, king of the trade of the Aourelia. In 1652 he retained the Berber independence by his defeat of Obla, whom the Khallah had appointed to rule the new provinces. Koelia fell, but "ta Kahena" rose to take the place as the self-appointed defender of her people. In a battle of the cost of the Akies Mountains she repelled the incursion of Hassan governor of Egypt and drove his Arabs back into Gibes. The enemy forces numbered 40,000, while her army numbered only 22,000. Unity of Hassan's bodyguard were taken prisoners, and with one execution "La Kahena" sent them unrestrained to Khalifa, a former youth of the time of Gad'i, who adopted him as going to the present Berber cere- CLOSE TO NATURE By ALFRED GORDON I see myself I don't care to go Where, here, don't ring nor whistle a blow.

Sir Valentine Chirol States the English Viewpoint of the Conflicting Interests of British and Africans and How They May Work Out By ROWLAND THOMAS In The New York World A world wherein a white man is mercyly the acknowledged equal of a colored man would be a hard world for the average white man of this day and generation to visualize—a still harder one to get along peaceably. But Sir Valentine Chilcol is right, such a world is in the making. The present uncle of Egypt is at a low level, but a symptom of a world-wide condition which must bring vast changes to pass. Very timely, in view of the assassination of the Sidar and the de facto recompensation by God Britain of the protectorate she formally relinquished only two and a half years ago, let the publication of "The Occident and the Orient" a volume made up of the Harris Foundation lectures delivered at the University of Chicago this year by Sir Valentine, former Director of the Foreign Department of the London Times. From betrayal of the pages of his book a spectacle leaks. He warns against the bitterness of a racial discord, already to his thinking widely existent, which if it spreads and depens may threaten the future of the whole human race. "All the manifold decontents of the Orion, declares Sir Valentine, 'are bound up together in the clash of color. This is nothing else.' But it has acquired a dangerous antiface with the white man's assumption of superior and undefeated pride, based on the superbity of his race. He may couple the excesses of these rights with a true sense of duty, a Kuping impulse when he wrote of the white man's burden. But a moral or sympathetic, the Oriental, who for a time admitted, and acquitted with almost identical accusation, in the whole man's supernatural detest. One Loss of Prestige Relations between the two segments of humanity lie below, and are entering on a new phase which may be roughly described as a general movement of revolt against the accommodation of the Oldenstein. This result pertains to the entire East. It is based either on the belief that the current has enforced all the West has to teach us to the West, prescribing to a so-called and bloodless Europe has been a very blow to Occupied Palestine all through the Orient." And there also he says: "can there be found a better illustration of the past of freestyle material and moral forces on the relations between the East and West than in Egypt that laid the foundation for those which after almost obsolete, was the close of the eighteenth century, and most intimate to the great obliquities of future Israel, Benjamin Barneche and Mohammed I." Egypt in the Money Market Egypt in the Money Market Mohammed Ali Mkhediul successors locked his reged qualities. The Khedive Ismail, in particular, struck out on a new and dangerous line as the first Oriental potentates to become a reckless borrower on the European money markets. He spent his loans like water, on plasure, on courtly pomp, on folly armament and vast schemes of aggrandizement in Abbasinia and the Sudan. And when the creditors grew expecting, Jasmail sent out hordes of tax-guilty and blood while the writhered penalty on whose shores the whole burden ultimately retreated. The outcome was the first Egyptian nationalist movement, the proxits of Arab Day and the intervention of European powers in Egyptian internal affairs, which dealt in fact dents Sur Valentine sums up as follows: "The end came in 1872, when Ismail was deposed by the Sultan Abdul Hamid at the instance of France and England, who at once introduced a rigid, financial control in the interest of Egypt herself no less than of her bondholders abroad. The misery into which Ismail had plunged the Egyptian people was intense, and in their despair they were unable to discriminate between the oppression of their own rulers, the greed of the bondholders in the background, or the somewhat severe discipline of the foreign administrators brought in to extricate them from the morass. Arab, the Egyptian, headed a crude movement of popular revolt and carried the army with him into open rebellion against Ismail's well-meaning son and successor, the Khedive Tewfik. Many elements contributed to this upheaval, for Western education had spread sufficiently in Egypt to produce an educated or semi-educated class which had imbbed some occidental conventions of freedom together with Europe's nineteenth century faith in the saving principle of nationalism as opposed to the old order of paramount dynastic interests." But there was also a darker background of Mohammedan famed militaries, Muhrendad popular outbreaks against footwear in Alexandria led to the bombardment of that port by a British fleet in the summer of 1852 and the landing of a purely British expedition. Sir Valentine says England had first vainly tried to get Fignae, Italy and even Turkey to join her in putting down the Arab rebellion, on Sept. 14, 1852, the whole European Army was scattered to the winds at the battle of Talaikebi, near day a British army entered Vaito, the capital, and has remained there ever since. For explains Sir Valentine, when the first Egyptian nationalist movement collapsed like a picked bubble, it carried down the framework of government and administration, leaving the invaders in an awkward dilemma. They had included the occupation would be only temporary. But they could not leave the country helpless and beganted. International treaties and French hostilities precluded them from amassing the country or proclaiming a monarchy. Vaito into a acceptance of responsibles never nearly defined beyond the rough description of putting Egypt on her legs against the warlord of the popular system known as 'British control' Egypt remained an autonomous force of the Ottoman Empire, retaining most of the military rule, an amalgamation of an European Council of Ministers and an European administration. He印象 that for the British ex- ercises in the right of advice and discipline through the representatives of official experts. It was a difficult task and Sir Evelyn Gomper, Lord Cromer worked it successfully for a number of a century. He restored ma- sual Egypt completely, and did much for the intellectual and moral ad- mendment of her people, according to Sir Valentine. Number of Schools rowing in Palestine A report of the Palestine governments Department of Education, made public yesterday by Samuel Unternepzer, president of the Palestine Foundation Fund, says gradual but not noticeable is being made toward the elimination of litteracy among the inhabitants of the Holy Land. For the first time the natives now are being instructed by trained teachers. The number of schools, government, non-government and denominational, is 711. These are attended by 82,648 pupils, who are instructed by 1,593 teachers. The government operates 316 schools, which have 673 students and 19,331 pupils. The report reveals the still uprising of the Boy and Girl Boost movements in Palestine. The Girl Boost calls themselves "Girl Gadolin" after whom forms an important part of the school curriculum, rugby football and volleyball being the principal sport.

When there are political disturbances in India it is treated differently to like troubles in Ireland. The Indians are fanatical and unorganised; the Irish are organized and good fighters. Contrasted to the saintly Gandhi, who did penance by fasting, for even a minor fatality on the part of his countrymen, imprisoned Irishmen fasted to death, while their uncaptured comrades shot down as many Englishmen as they could. It was only till then she became somewhat considerate and said: "Come now and let us reason together." Collins and Griffith, erstwhile contemptible "rebels," met the august Premier of England, and an honorable treaty of peace was signed. They were honored and respected in life, and telegrams of praise and condolence were received at their death from Britain's rules and molesmen. Our gaze is presently centered on Egypt. It is possible that the tragic drama is not yet over. Britain's Egyptian policy must be determined by the organized strength, fighting powers, and intelligence of the Egyptians themselves.

A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR Dr. Scott Sums Up the Conditions in This Season Which Indicate That the Race Problem Is Solving Itself for Good to the Race By DR. EMMETT J. SCOTT. Secretary-Treasurer, Howard University, Washington, D. C. January 1, 1955, marks another anniversary—the sixtieth—in the history of the American Negro as a freeman. Within this past year new proofs of the autobiography, the Negro citizen has come to be in American life have come of a light in education, in politics and in education. New achievements have been provided. The Negro citizen is coming into the world through the subtle influence and power of the own merits. The local community of using the past, present and future and courage of the Ngozi people in the industrial world to bring upon the levels of interest, with there was a great need and desire to the need of letting down to the land and in that a large number of foreign land might come to the area to challenge the state part of the other part of the North, and assimilate and had been depleted of labor. By the return of tiger formers, employed to their native land, he opened the world conflict.

The new environment caused the experienced man also given the Negro an opportunity which killed to had been denied.

I would be very glad if we could start up such a scheme and would be unmolested by the native, as the people of today have no respect for law the world over. Now, members and friends of the U. N. I.

Death of Mr. Dixon, Prominent Texas Member To the Editor of The Negro World: The members of the U. N. I. A. of Dallas, Tex., mourn the loss of a loyal leader, Mr. Thomas F. Dixon, Mr. Dixon has been affiliated with the U. N. I. A. ever since its was first organized in the State of Texas in 1918 by the good Rev. M. Christian of Nashville, Texas. Mr. Dixon was closely associated with the Hon. E. J. Skinner, one of the greatest Negro leaders in Texas for the U. N. I. A. and who holds the honor as representative of the U. N. I. A. and A. C. L. M. Skinner declares that the Hon. President Thomas E. Dixon's body is dead, but his spirit still lives and will forever exist in the State of Texas. Mr. Dixon was a race man as well as a leader. We pray for Widow Dixon in her great grief that God may bless her. We also trust that another leader will be sent to guide us in this great movement. Dallas, Texas. A MEMBER. a fuller life, for facilities for the education of his children, for creature comforts and for much that makes life worth living, an unrestricted voting franchise, have come to him, and he has found a contented state of mind which evidences itself in the new stability of his employment. No longer can he be designated the itinerant laborer in industry, for he remains on the job, in season and out of season. In politics the Negro is expressing an independence in a manner which challenges the admiration of other racial groups in America. His voting is now determined not by the color of his skin, but by the measure of his intellect. In the recent National election there were Negro followers of the three leading parties. The fact that the major portion of his voting strength was given to the Republican party was not due wholly to historical leanings, but was due more particularly to individual decision guided by intelligent reasoning. In education the Negro in 1924 has accomplished outstanding results. Howard University, Lincoln University, Willisforce University, Morehouse College, Hampion Institute, Tuskegee Institute Atlanta University, Fisk University and numerous other of the leading institutions of the country specializing in the training of Negro youth have sent forth thousands of students related with the spirit of service to their place, to their country and to their Goal. It is well that a reflecting glance should seen the accomplishments of our race during the year 1924, as we gird for the struggles of 1925. True, there have been errors and shortcomings, but even the most unconscious account will find that the Negro people in America are still on the asset side of the labor in their relation to the obligations of American citizenship.

CARVER AND BOOKS, SCIENCE AND INSPIRATION From the Baltimore "Afro-American" TUSKEGEE, Ala., Dec. 11—When Dr. George W. Carver, famous Tuskegee scientist and wizard, told an audience in New York recently that he had been able to make hundreds of chemical inventions through divine inspiration, he did not say that this inspiration took the place of books. Seated in his working apron in his laboratory, Dr. Carver looked the part of a man who has been honored with the Spingarn medal and who has just been recently made a fellow of the Royal Society of Great Britain, and who has to his credit hundreds of processes by which such articles as paint, flour, medicine, milk and the like are made from the peanut and potato. Dr. Carver told the AFRO today that one newspaper had even gone so far as to say that he accordeed books and was not interested in what other chemists are doing. The great scientist labelled these reports of his address as "grossly untrue." Especially did Dr. Carver take exception to the report and editorial in the New York "Times." He said several friends had sent him letters they had written to the "Times" telling him unfair the report was. He gave the AFRO a copy of the letter he himself had written the "Times" in part as follows: "I regret exceeding that such a gross misunderstanding should arise as to what was meant by "Divine inspiration" in inspiration is never at variance with information; it is fact, the more information one has, the greater will be the instillation. "Paul, the great scholar, says Second Timothy, 2:15, 'Study to show myself approving into God, a worker that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.'" "Again he says in Galattas 1:22: For I neither received of man neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ." "Many, many, equally strong passages could be cited, but these two are sufficient to form a base around which to cluster my remarks. In the first verse, I have followed and am yet following the first word study. Dr. Carver and I am a graduate of the Iowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, located at Ames, Iowa, taking two degrees in Scientific Agriculture. Did considerable work in Simpson College, Indiana, along the lines of Art, Literature and Music." "In chemistry, the following persons have been an inspiration and guide for family: Justin Voel Liebing, Dr. Loren J. Bihin Dr. Ita Remem, Dr. L. L. De Konink, E. Ducz, Robert Muller William G. Valentin, J. Mertz Matthews, Edwin S. Sisson, M. Lennesse Harrison E. Howe, Charles Whiting Baker, Rene Albert M. Bard, Mad Curie, Geo. J. Brush, Charles F. Chatterjee B. Bragdenbush, Frederick, H. Hoffman, Moore Jeffrey, Arthur C. Worrell, M. W. O'Drane, Lainton Goss, Nyman, Stallman, Wiley, Dana, Richards and Woodman, Harry Snyder, Colman and Addison, Meade, Ostwald, Warren, Wright, Windows and a number of others, all of whom are in my own library, with but few exceptions. In botany, Lodder, Wood, Conifer, Severs, Krauss, Hiley, Do Carrade, Pammel, Desy, Chapman, Gray, Goodale, Youmans, Myers, Britton, Brown, Small and others. These books are also in my own library, Dietaries, Henry, Richards, Mrs. Potter Palmer, Miles, Wong, Eileen Berry Kellog, Nilson and others. "In position to the same I have the leading scientific publicist. I thoroughly understand and that there are scientists to whom the whole world is merely the result of chemical forces or material electrons. I do not belong to this class. I fully agree with the K. R. Rey, Bryan Peake Johnson, Dr. D. Bishop of Colorado. In a little pamphlet entitled "Religion and the Supernatural," it is published and distributed by the Trinity Parish of your city. I defy anyone who has an open mind to read this leaflet through and then deny there is such a thing as Divine inspiration. "In evolving new creations, I am wondering of what value a book would be to the Creator if he is not a master of analytical work, both qualitative and quantitative. I can see readily his need for the book from which to get his analytical methods. The master analyst needs no book; he is at liberty to take apart and put together substances, compatible or non-compatible to suit his own particular taste or fancy. "While in your beautiful city, I was struck with the large number of Taros and Yautias displayed at many of your markets; they are edible roots imported to this country largely from Trinidad, Porto Rica, China, Dutch Gulana, and Peru. Just as soon as I saw these luscious roots, I marveled at the wonderful possibilities for their expansion. Dozens of things came to me while standing there looking at them. I would follow the same or similar lines I have pursued in developing products from the white potato. I know of no one who has ever worked with these roots in this way. I know of no book from which I can get this Information, yet I will have no trouble in doing it. "If this is not inspiration and information from a source greater than myself, or greater than any one has TUT—St. Luke II, 12: "This shall be a sign unto you." From the historical the human family has been interested in signs and astens. Some of our interests in this direction has cost us much by way of advancement in the spiritual, mental and physical world. We have dared not go forward without a sign. Caution by very commendable, but over-cautious man proves a real setback to handle venture. But what has this text, to do with Christmas and the human family of today? First, it was spoken of Him, who proved Himself the world's best and greatest Ensign, Guidepost and Redeemer. Secondly, the human family needs today as it did then such a token of real manhood, with God-given powers, rightly interpreted for our existence here. For more than 4,600 years the Jews especially had looked for a sign, which spelled for them deliverance from oppression, maltreatment, derision and acorn. They felt the need of and longed for this token as we now look forward to Christmas and its pleasant reminders. They wanted an emblem of power, respect and goodness, but, like all men, who expect great things, are least prepared to accept the things when they come. He came. They were disappointed: First, in his birth. Truly greatness cannot come out of lowly and humble surroundings: Truly kings and leaders are not born of sufferings and near poverty! They did not know that the sign of greatness rests not in birth nor condition, but in possibilities of mind-development, in the willingness of the individual to grasp a thought, control think thought and use it for its real potency. For thoughts are deeds and deeds are actions, and actions affect the affairs of men, the world and Christ. If we understand Christmas and its meanings, surely it is a sign for real awakening to thought, that is likely to advance our existence. If we rightly real the sign it is saying, our tokens are the best for the greatest number of persons and not to enhance our selfish designs. If we comprehend the sign of Christmas, it must say to each of us that the world needs our bit of sunshine and happiness. It needs our cheer and gladness. This cannot be forthcoming unless we have this light within, this cheer abiding in our being, and the ability to send it broadcast, not to friends, but to the suffering, hungering masses. If we can conceive of the greatness of this sign, surely it spells new thoughts, new ideas and new undertakings. This calls for a leaving off of the old ways and old actions and an entering into of a larger endeavor. FOR THE NEW YEAR LET THE NEGRO WORLD BE YOUR PAPER As a face let the sign point us to that place in our advancement, where we can feel secure in our positions. Let us know that Christmas for our face as it now exists, does not has spoken the best and greatest good available to a loving, trusting, honest, hard-working folk. That it doesn't give us the vision indicated by the sign. Therefore, it behooves us to gather the lessons and adhere to the tasks, which mean racial independence and freedom tokened in the coming of Christ. $9.35 PRICES SMASHED! 37 CAL.

The Negroes are wrought up to the prelude of the kindest tell me what it is. "And ye shall lift the truth and the truth shall make you free. John 8:33." "Science is should" the truth about anything. "I just believe in God, and that God is better than man, and more than man, and he best suits it to talk." "Why do that matter?" I fully believe in and try to be up to show 3,6,6. In all the ways we know Him, and He shall direct our paths. "Very intelligent people now believe in a God and Deeve revelation. It is amusing the letters, poems, books, etc. on the subject that are here and are yet coming in, so that I am not alone in this. "The only American music we said our music is said to be inspired if ever music was inspired. May God deepen and strengthen our relation as a race rather than destrozy it." "Results count, here are the things before their very eyes. Can they beat it or even duplicate it?" The difficulty encountered by the medical world has been to find the right invigorator for the glands. This new discovery is simple, perfectly harmless, inexpensive, and can be Gottenhard and will subscribe to a moral refinement, whose plans and imagination come from God. The world needs a real token and design of power. We have their need at hand. Will we use it? It is the idea of Negroes doing for themselves the things that will bring to them the larger freedom and light, which this sign came to bring. This freedom cannot be obtained in following the old avenues or the old lines of thought. It will come when our visions are cleared, our minds attuned and our lives dedicated to the one cause that will emancipate all the Negroes, those at home and abroad. The sign is our guide-post. The way is clear. Let us read and understand; because "His understanding becomes our inspiration; and our inspiration leads us to heights rarefied with His love and light. Beholding the sign, does it spell for your success or failure? Nobody wants to fall at Christmas. Nobody wants to be checkered at this season. But you will be unless you realize that Christ lived not for Himself, nor did he come-bringing gifts to his friends; but He came bringing life and gladness to a desistute, sin-sullied world. Milled with misery and deceit, corruption and ruin. He stayed, until His mission was declared. His truth established and the foundation laid for greater work good. Let us then, black men, engage in making the world better, us achieve world conquest in thought action. Let us see the gloom rapidly receding through our internal power, expressed in the glorious light of freedom. Let us exclaim, "A Merry Christmas" because of that innermost conscience saying, it is "Merry," because the world's suffering has been made lighter by our effort. It will be a Merry Christmas given that truly so, because the sign has been read and understood by a mind mode-free through this Christ Spirit, which was given to us nearly 400 years ago as a sign to call the people, regardless of race, color or need. --- 10:10 Fortune Telling Globe!

Marcus Garvey, Directeur-Editeur A tous mes congénères, Salut: Encore quelques jours et nous serons à célébrer le saint et joyeux yours de Noël, le jour ou naquit le Seigneur et Sauveur du Monde dont la mission fut d'opérer la rédemption spirituelle de la famille humaine. Le but pour lequef il se dévoua ne s'est pas encore complètement réalisé cependant, depuis environ deux mille ans que son sacrifice s'est accompli, nombre de ceux qui l'avaient renie, ont accepté sa doctrine, se sont courbés sous sa loi et luttent aujourd'hui pour la défense des Vérités qu'il a enseignées. Des contenues de millions d'individus professement, à cette heure, la religion chrétienne; cependant, il semble que très peu de piété sincère s'allie à la forme de la religion dont ils se reclament. Par suite de cette fausseté, cette absence de réalité dans la pratique, nous nous trouvons encore dans un état de confusion, de malentendu, de haïne et de lutte mortelle les uns contre les autres, au point de rendre nécessaire le retour de notre Seigneur et Maitre afin de corriger tout le mal que nous avons accompli et rétabir l'ordre que nous avons été inaptes à maintenir. Nous vivons dans un monde ou, nonobstant la prétense d'être chrétien, une race veut picter une autre, et une nation ne demande qu'à subjuguer, exploiter et apparriver une autre. C'est une confusion universelle. On ne saurait dire au juste qui a tort ou qui a raison. Il n'existe qu'une gross spéculation qui paraît devoir résulter en une confusion de plus en plus grande. a moins qu'un changement immédiat ne survienne pour nous apporter quelque soulagement. Ce changement et ce soulagement, nous les appelons de tous nos voix; et nous espérons qu'ils viendront surtout en ce moment où l'univers entier reporte, par la pensée, son tribut d'hommage et de veneration, à l'étable de Bethlehem ou naquit Jesus, le Fils de Dieu et le Frère de l'Homme. En commemorant la Noël ne perdons pas de vue le côté ideal. N'en faisons pas uniquement une journée de sport, de frivolité et d'amusement; mais rappelons-nous que cette date représente la plus grande de toute colère qui sont inscrites dans les annales de l'Histoire. Si nous nous tous pe sonnes un l'ennemi de notre frère. La pensée dominante ou elle repr de était universellement comprise et accepte serait cause que L. s serait disposée à jeter has ses armes sans plus chercher à in. le matheuraux Egyptiens. La France oublierait son deir de se ve. de l'Allemagne et se rendrait compte que le Christ est tiort pour l'Alenand comme pour le Français. La race blanche cet serait de se vander de sa prétendue superiorité et se dirait qu'aux yux de Dien et son Fil Bainiém, tous les hommes ont été créés égaux. Nil était possible, en cette saïl-on de Noël de convertir les prétendue- race supérieure et les detourne de leurs michanectes; les porter à compendre qu'il n'existe qu'une seule fraternité qui est la fraternité humaine sans égard à la question de nationalité alors nous aurions accompli une œuvre dont l'influence serait incalable. On ne sait, vraiment comment qualifier ces predications que coment du haut de la chaîne tous ces venerables prélats qui, chargé de conduire dans la voie spirituelle, les nations et les peuples, leurs enjoignement, d'une part, d'écrive justes, affectueux et charitables les uns envers les autres, de l'Alteur, soniment tous les arguments matériels de destruction quavancement leurs nations et peuples respectifs pour justifié leur troit de subjuger les peuples plus faibles et moins fortunes. Ainsi donc, quelles raisons peut bien alléger Sa Grandeur l'Archeveque de Cantorbery pour justifier l'attitude criminelle de l'Anglterre envers les indigences de l'Afrique qui sont sous sa domination? Quels arguments peut bien presenter le Clergé de France en faveur desirs impies de la République Française vis-à-vis des Colonies? Et quelles théories peut formuler Sa Saintette le Pape pour démontrer que l'Italie a raison d'opprimer tous ces millions d'anges qui pleulent l'Afrique? Et cependant, nous tous, Italiens, Anglais, Français, Américains, Allenands et Africains invoquons le même Dien et reconnaissons le même Sauveur qui est notre frère et notre Redemutateur. Cela ne vous fait-il pas l'effet d'une vaste plaisanterie, d'une farce, d'un mensonge? Cependant nous vivons dans Vespoir que le genre humain retrouvera un jour sa conscience et qu'ailors l'Anglterre ne croira piadevoir vivre au dépens de l'Afrique et des Indes, ni la France au dépens millions de noirs illettres; mais que tous nous devons vivre dans les liens d'une commune bienveillance et d'une commune sympathie, partageant les neiges et les saffrances les uns des autres. C'est-là l'espoir de l'U. N. I. A., et nous formons le voeu que la Noël de 1924 nous amène plus près de cette réalisation sont souhaite. Nous émettons le voeu que tout les Noirs gardent une attitude digne, sobre et correcte durant cette saison de fête. Sobre, non-seulement dans le sens de l'abstention des exces de boisson, mais dans leur conduite générale. Cet à notre peuple se rappeler que la Noël n'est pas, une suspension pendant laquelle ils doivent s'abandonner à la dissipation, la bamboe et le gaspillage d'argent; mais bien une saison durant laquelle ils doivent réfléchir et mediter profondement, en cherchant à resoudre le problème si ardu et si complexe de leur avenir. Aussi le meilleur conseil que nous puissions donner à cette heure, est qu'on consacre un monte de consideration sympathique aux buts et projets de l'U. N. I. A. et que chacun de son côté, nous fassions tout ce qui dépend de nous pour nous solidariser mentalement, matériellement et par tous les moyens possibles afin de réaliser un esprit de fraternité parmi les membres de la race. Nous avons pris pour devise "Un même Dieu, un même but, une même destinée". Que pourrions-nous faire de mieux que de promulguer cette noble et sublime pensée. Oui, nous ne sommes qu'un, nous souffrons pareillement; par conséquent, nous devrons vivre comme fères; et quand viendra, la fin de toute chose surment nous serons rassemble dans le même bereail. Ne formons qu'on faisceau dans notre determination de soutenir les entreprises de l'U. N. I. A. La Black Cross Navigation and Trading Co. a besoin de concours de tous pour mener son programme à bien. Ne le lijuf refusez pas. En offrant des cadeaux aux amis songez aussi à vous offrir un cadeau personnel en achétant un coupon de l'emprunt de la B. C. N. & T. Co.

French Section THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1984 La Véritable Crise (Dans Les Contiments) De toutes les crises qui sévissent dans notre société, celle qui me parait la plus profonde en même temps que la plus grosse de conséquences, n'est pas que la cashe—celle dont on se proccupe le plus. Crise du ble, crise du charbon, crise du petrole, crise du franc, crises ministérielles, toutes ces crises ont fait couler beaucoup d'encre. Toutes, certes, mécritent quelque intérêt, mais il me parait, opportun de dire quelques mots sur celle que l'on n'aperçu pas ou peu sans doute parce qu'elle est aveuglante. — et dont les autres ne sont peut-être que les corollaires. Cette crise, c'est la crise de la conscience. *La conscience est dans notre société,—qui possède toutes les civilisations, sauf la principale: la civilisation morale,—le fond qui manque le plus, et dont cependant nous aurions si grandement besoin pour vivre bien. Crise de la conscience, chez les acapareurs de toutes marchandises, determinant les hausses illicites et les bénéfices exagérés: Crise de la conscience chez les noindres commercants, trompant le client, non-seulement sur la valeur, mais aussi sur le poids de la marchandise: Crise de la conscience, chez les gouvernants, sacrifiant à des intérêts et à des ventes personnelles la tranquillité des peuples: Crise de la conscience dans les groupements politiques, subordonnant la Vérité et l'Action à l'esprit de parti: Crise de la concience chez tant d'homme laches ! Crise de la conscience chez trop de femmes veules. Du haut en bras de l'écelle—i l'on met de très rares exceptions à part,—crise de la conscience. Crise à l' fait latent, dans une société edifice sur un mensonge et sur une erreur; mais amplifié encore par la guerre et ses succedanes "Système D", "Faut pas s'en faire", etc. Se debrouiller, voilà la grande preoccupation. Peu importe que ce soit au detriment de celui-ci ou de celle-la. Dans la nécel, tant pis pour ceux qui choient. Et l'ambiance s'eend, en tache d'huile, on "faisse tomber"... les sempules. Le sens moral se disend, les egosnes sont laches et la lutte devient après pour ceux qui n'ont pas on ne veulent pas avoir les mouens, modernes d'action. Ne va-t-on rien faire contre cette crise? Oh le homémites gens, n'allez-vous pas faire bloc à votre tour, composer votre programme et lutter, non pour un siege en un portefeuille, mais pour empocher que la contamination s'étonde, et aider à sauver ceux qui sont encore curable! Car, au fait, avons-nous de reelies directives pour aider an dévelopement de la conscience et lutter contre son atrophe! La Religion, me dites-vous? — Heu! — Lecole-lapaque? — Hum! La Science alors? — Oui, peut-être. Mais pas la science officielle, à coup sur, — Une autre done? — Oui. Nous en reparlerons. Mai en attendant, l'évite-moi la veritable crise, c'est la crise de la conscience. Nous sommes surtout malheureux, parce que nous ne sommes inhos, ni inistes. Le problème social est plus haut qu le problème économique ou le probleme politique. Il est moral. Marguerite GUEPLI. ADORATION L'est ne, le Roi du monde. Le Christ, le Liberateur.

Dans toute la vaste salle de spectacle, deux sieges seulement étaient vacants, sans doute à cause d'une indisposition survenue à leur propriétaire. Sauf ces, deux places restées inoccupées, la vaste salle était comble, au parquet, aux loges, aux balcons, il y avait foule. Quant à l'estrade, on avait du y assesoir tant de monde, que c'est à peine s'il y restrait assez de place pour le piano et l'artiste. Toutes les classes, tous les degrés de l'échelle sociale etaient représentées et, naturellement, dans cette grande ville cosmopolite que est New York, toutes les races et les nuances d'épidermes imaginables. Telle est la puissance d'un talent miraculux. Il y a à peine deux décades, réunir a auditoire pareil pour entendre chanter un Noir, ou été une entreprise absolument impossible, à moins qu'il ne se fuit au d'un programme de vaudieu. La farce, la comédie, le burlesque, pour un Nègre à la bonne heure; les danse stupides, la danse au tomom ou au banjo soit de son domine, que dis-jé sa spécialité. Mais un programme classique, et vocal encore, non ce n'était pas fait pour un Noir. Voici, rependant que le prodige s'est realise, et magistraient. Manes de John Brown et de Garrison que n'ussiez-vous veu cet soiré sensuelle, inoubliable. L'artiste au teint d'écheve a parmi il est ovationné. Puis il commence. Il début par un chante, de Beethoven, pour passer ensuite à Handel, Bradmus, Schubert, tons les grands-classique allemands. Enfin, il a module un extrait d'Donar-Khayam, mis en musique par un Italian, Santoliquido. Hayes la chante en italien, et il la chante si bien la Lautoirie la redemandie. Pour clore le programme, il a chante plusieurs de ces "chants spirituels" composés naugure par les ancêtres au temps de leur esclavage. Et lorsqu'il eut attaqué "La Rivière Profond", J'ai cru voil comme dans un kaleidoscope, toutes les angiossès, toutes les tragédies, toutes les souffrances et les supplications que depuis des siècles la race élève vers Dieu, les mains muettement tendues. Ah oui, elle a souffert; mais de ses souffrances naïra qu'quiche chose qui enrichira Phânase a tout jamais. Conseil a la menagere On ne doit se servir de sucre que comme assaisonnement. Le sucre desséche la bouche et la gorge, ce qui rendrait la digestion pénible et disposerait à la constipation, si le n'en faisait le plus souvent uage que combiné avec d'autres substances, telles que le lait, le caout, le aliment. Le vinigre est stimulant ; mais il entraîne l'irriration de la gorge, et peut causer l'anaigrissement et devenir dangereux pour la santé. Le boissons sont des disfléments qui facilitent la digestion. Les cuxs calcaires sont indigètes et purgatives. Les cuxs ferrugineux sont toniques et conviennent aux personnes anémiques. Les cuxs gazes qui contiennent de l'acide carbonique sont stimulantes et exécutent la digestion. Education des Noirs aux Etats Unis Le Professeur N. C. Newland a améliocé que l'Etat de la Carolina du Nord vaut propriété des $4,000,000 par un pour l'éducation de Noirs.

Spanish Section Celebración de las navidades—La fé cristiana—Nuestras luchas—Pensamiento universal la debilidad humana—Una farsa—Como argumenta el hombre—Esperanzas para nuestro futuro—Consejo que la raza debe seguir en pro de su propio beneficio Las navidades, aniversario grandilocuente del nacimiento del Mesias, será celebrado una vez más con todo el explandor y solemnidad con que las razas todas del orbé que conulguen con la santidad espiritual del gran Cristo, crean en la misión del gran Salvador, en tracer hacia nosotros la redención espiritual de la familia humana. Que el estivo con nosotros, no cabe duda; pero su objetivo, lo principal de su venida en descenso milagroso hacia la tierra, como embajador del gran artífice del universo, no ha sido completamente entendido ni sanciónado por el mundo cristiano hasta la fecha. Después de dos mil años su obra ha sido tan magnificente, que la gran mayoria que no creyera en el se ha rendido a la evidencia, ha aceptado su verdad y cual otros apostoles, van por nuestros mundos predicando su doctrina y defendiendo su credo. Cientos de millones de cristianos profesan la fe de Cristo, y bajan su cabeza en reconocimiento de los principios de cristiandad por lo cual el mudo. Desafortunadamente, sinembargo, no parece sino que la verdadera praície de sus principios, religiosos no se ha entendido concreta-mente. Vivimos en una era de confusion todavía: no nos entendemos los unos con los otros; dichamos por destruirnos y esto da prueba de que necesitamos el retorno del Senior, sus practicas y sus consejos para que reajuste nuestros males, regule nuestros centinientos y la paz y la omania rite entre la familia humana. Nos encontramos cara a cara con un mundo que se jacta de cristiano, pero que falta de esa igualdad societaria que nivea los espiritus y las almas de una una fe, presenta un ejemplo de hostilidad, do una sara destruye a otra raza, un puello aniquilla a otro puello, una humanidad explota a otra humanidad y el fuerte subyuga al debil, abisa de un cristianismo mentido, hachiendo irisoria la cause grande y noble del gran Cristo. Si hay confusion; no sabemos quien tenga razon y quien deje de terueria. Todo esto es una grosera especulación que traerá un estado cañico, sino viene a su tiempo la medida necesaria para remediar esa tímida desacentamiento que se deja sentir en el umido cristiano. En esta quinta universario de la venida del Crito, cremos oportuno llamar la acencia al universo de cuan hondos son nuestros males y recomendemos que alla, en la Gailife, en un pequeño estable, en Belen, nació el hijo de Dios, Cristo, el hermano del hombre. Al cieberjar estas Pasencias, no dividemo lo santo y sagrado de las mismas; que todo no se diversion, trivolidad y placer; recordemos lo que ello significa y celebremos las con la dignidad y sancion espiritual, como el más grande de los universarios de la raza humana. Es una creencia universal de que más nos acercamos al sentimiento del amor, cuando no尽imos más cerca de aquel que consideramos nuestros hermanos y no nuestro enamigo. Cuando luglaterra este dispone a enviar un espado y no esclavizar al Egipto; cuando Francia olide en venganza con Venomia y realize que el Cristo hizo lo mismo por el trato que por el almanar; cuando la humanidad blanca olide en idea de su cristalidad; se deje cuenta que ante Dios, ante el Espiritu Santo y entonces la humildad Hífe, todos los hombres fuimos creados agua, entonces podemos llamarlos cristanos, tai como lo pensara y lo cremantó el Dios de Rojas. Siempre se lejamos en los tiempos de esta base, convertir la debilidad de condena del las labios, la tracción superiores, y conseguir que todas ellas tratan con condena del el torno traterramente, y que este sentimiento e por esta el labios, se indiferentes de nacionalidad alguna, entonces ilustran consiguir iniciar en este antiversario de la criatura, la intención trace a para obtener una pary duradera. Le reinmite una bunda el de la base de aquelos que poían man la división del cris, tratando de guiar los centimientos cris, en el mismo, posiendo por encima los detingios traibles y las condiciones de nacionalidad. Por lo mismo le oítes extraor que seamos buenos los unos, los otros, que nos amemos como ingramos, y por otro lado los ejemplos de desinhibión e nismo optimismo, traveno a colación arguido, tratando de detener el como base de detener a un propósito, y con el mismo ingramento que traceno a objeto la detinencia de la magnitud en el los más afortunado! CUESTION MASONICA Contestando al Sr. Arturo A. Schomburg, Gran Secretario de los Prince Hall Masones del estado de Nueva York Lantano matto tenue que entrar en controversia abierta con el Sr. Schomburg. No aosumilo amnclarne ni mucho menos, fungir de intellectual, porque no se nada; no compongo nada, y en cie mundo donde liabitan los sabijondos, lo mejor que he hecho es observar y reunir en la retora de ni experiencia con los otros hombres, todo el detritus de ignorancia de mi congeneres moretales y solito, con mi yo pensante, juzgar, analizar y dar mi fallo de acuerdo con minejor sentido común, deduciendo de mi humilde bagaje sólifico, la torpeza o clarividencia de los elementos que me han salido al paso, con los cuales forzamente he tenido delecta o in- direccionante que estan en contacto - Tenga por entendido, Sr. Schomang, que en su replica a mi articulo - "Question Masonica", ha no sabido Ud. hacer uso de su *uran tajento* m de la soberana capacidad, para desenrar ciertas cuestiones de indole para y exclusivamente de orden pensante. Ha cogido Ud. como dicen nuestros jibaros "el rábano por las hojas" y me indigia un rosario de citas enciclopedicas que como Ud. sabe, todo masa por obturgo que sea debe conocer. Lo especial, lo vendadero y tu damentaimente lógico de mi escribo es la demostración patente de que la masonería entre es mayor número de los elementos de color norte americanos, tiene injectado un mercantilismo que no se encuentra en ninguna otra parte del orbe; y entre el elemento blanco, como bien sabe el Gran Secretario de los Prince Hall, existe un maremagnun indesifrable, donde el egoismo norte americano unico y absoluto en su vida de relación, mantiene una independencia tradicional en sus instiuciones, con sello unico, y unas tendencias de superiodidad, afianzadas en su poderio de nación, en su vida holgadamente economica, fatitud altanente lisongera en el presente, pero que al correr del tiempo le traera esta petulante actuación, consecuencias graves en el orden politico, social, inteño en ese encadenaje de vida internacional a que estan sometidos los puieblos, para poderse entender y armonizarse en el proceso colectivo que encuadra a las humanidades de todos los paises que se jactan de cristianos y civilizados. Mi argumentación es hija de un estudio detenido y no de una posición cualquiera que obedezca a circumstancias obligadas por consideración a prebendas; oíte la renumeración que tal o'cual puesto me pudiera producir para librar mi susentio. Mi observación de este estado cañético en que se encuentra la hermandad masonica en los Estados Unidos, es hija del orden comparativo que establezco con los otros masones, que realmente hacen una labor constructiva, dentro y fuera del simbolismo de la orden sagrada a que pertenecenos los masones verdad. En mi peregrinacion por el mundo, Sr. Schomburg, he aprendido algo de mi hermanos internaciones que no encuentro ni en el mason tamizado ni en el rubicundo norte americano que tanto se jactan de su hermandad. Yo vi la luz en otros valles, mi buen Sr. Gran Secretario. He viajado simbólicamente hasta aleanzar el estudio filosofico del triangulo equilatero y de todas y cada una de las ocho divisiones de la escuadra emblematica que distingue a todo buen mason.
