NEGROES SHOULD SUBSCRIBE FOR LOANS IN NEGRO STEAMSHIP COMPANY AND HELP IN RACIAL COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT
Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting:
This week I write to you hoping that each and every one will think over seriously and act upon the suggestion made. We are all glad to know that the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company has secured its first ship, the Booker T. Washington, which is now on the waters of the Caribbean completing her first trip to the tropics, carrying thither the first group of American Negro tourists to have left this country aboard a Negro ship for a cruise across the waters. The S. S. Booker T. Washington has cost the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company a tremendous amount of money to purchase, equip and send to sea.
Regular Trade Route
A regular trade route is now established between America, the West Indies and Central American ports, and the company now needs further capital to run the ship successfully. Fifty thousand dollars of ready cash is now needed for the purchase of cargoes so the ship can keep her schedule with regular freight and passengers as intended. There is no reason why we in America cannot ship out to the people of the West Indies and Central America those commodities that they consume in large quantities, and why we cannot receive from them the raw materials and other products that they produce and which are consumed and used in this country. There is an ocean of possibilities lying between us as a people if we would only take immediate advantage of same, and it is to this end that we appeal to the thoughtful members of the race this week to support the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company financially so as to enable us to successfully put over the project that we are all interested in.
Subscribe for a Loan
Every Negro should subscribe to a loan in the Block Cross Navigation and Trading Company and help us to raise the needed capital for the investment per first ship, to say nothing of the investment in ships. You should take
CAPITAL NEEDED TO RUN SHIPS SUCCESSFULLY

out a $20, $25, $50, $100, $500 or $1,000 loan immediately, bearing an annual interest of 5%. This loan taken out just at this time will help the company to meet its obligations in successfully running the first ship of the corporation.
Don't Sleep—Work
We must not sleep upon the success we have already achieved. Our satisfaction should not only be in owning the boat, but in successfully running the boat and acquiring others. This can be done only by solid financial support. Everybody who means well by the race commercially and industrially should now rally to the effort that is being made to put our ships on the high seas. When it is considered that only 3,500 of us have purchased the Booker T. Washington, we can readily see that if our groups will only organize themselves we can have a ship launched every three months until we have successfully built up a large merchant marine for the carrying of our commerce to and fro. Not only must the West Indies, South and Central America be linked up with us in the United States, but we must also link up our peoples in India and Africa; therefore, we must have more ships immediately. But the purchase of other ships will depend largely upon the success attending the first venture of the launching of the S. S. Booker T. Washington. We must not wait for tomorrow, next week, next month or next year to do our part, but we must do it now. Now is the time when everybody's help is needed, and we are appealing directly for this because of the needs of the Black Cross Naviga-
tion and Trading Company. Send in your loans addressed to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, 56 West 135th Street, New York City. With very best wishes for your success, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant,
MARCUS GARVEY.
Universal Negro Improvement Association.
P. S.—To the members and divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association we make an appeal for immediate support to the Parent Body. Members and Divisions must know that the Parent Body of the Universal Negro Improvement Association can only carry out its program and work towards its fulfillment when it receives the whole-hearted support of members, branches and divisions. It is surprising to see that within recent time some of the large divisions of the organization have not been supporting the Parent Body as they should; that they have been dissipating the funds of the organization in their local communities without making the proper reports to the Parent Body and giving the necessary financial help to the organization to carry out its program. Members of divisions should see that this method is not continued for the new year, because the world and everybody is looking toward the Parent Body for the carrying out of the program of the organization, and if the local divisions do not make their regular reports and give the financial help it becomes impossible for us to meet our obligations and carry out the different projects. It is easy for the members and local divisions to blame the Parent Body for not doing one thing or the other, but it is impossible for the Parent Body to carry out its obligations when the branches do not give their support. All moneys collected for the annual tax and for the expense of the Parent Body should not be kept and dissipated by the local divisions, but should be sent to the Parent Body for its upkeep. Every member should pay this annual tax and secretaries should send same to the Parent Body without delay. If every member will pay his annual tax and every member see to it that it is forwarded to the Parent Body, great relief will be tendered to the Parent Body at the present time.
UGGLING WITH STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY'S INTERESTS
Gobbled Up by the Southern, a White Concern—Policy-Holder Shows That President Perry Betrayed His Trust and Is Striving to Deceive the Members and the Public—Statement by Atlanta Negro Civic League
Standard Life Insurance Company. Life has not been changed. Finally, Home Office: 189 Auburn Avenue, Atlanta, Ga. Jan. 16, 1928.
Dear Policyholder: You will be glad to learn that the security and protection behind your Standard Life policy was more than doubled yesterday when the stockholders of Standard Life voted to merge with the Southern Insurance Company of Nashville, Tennessee, the new company to be known as the Southern and Standard Life Insurance Company.
No doubt you have long ago learned that this is the day of big business. In all lines various businesses are combining for greater strength and larger service, and your company is only following the course of the larger and more successful organizations. The merger gives combined assets of nearly $5,000,000 and outstanding business of $25,000,000.
Not only have we added financial strength, but by merging with a Southern white insurance company we have gained a host of friends among the other race who now become personally and very definitely interested in the happiness and prosperity of the colored people throughout the entire Southland. And this economic and moral interrelationship between the races must result in a better understanding and more friendly spirit wherever the two races touch each other in the several States where the combined companies will operate. The merger, however, does not change the operating personnel of Standard Life. You have the same board of directors and the same officers and assistants in charge here in the very same headquarters where the old familiar faces will greet you.
We rejoice with you in this forward step. Urge your friends to get a Standard Life policy and hold on to it. It is the surest way to protect your loved ones and provide for your old age. We have a policy for your every need. Don't you need more protection than you are now carrying? Write us freely.
Teams for a larger service,

Mr. Meman Perry, The Standard Life
Insurance Company, Atlanta, Ga.
Mr. dear Mr. Ferry: I am in receipt of your letter addressed to me as a policyholder of the Standard Life Insurance Company. It is surprising in many particulars, in view of the facts that are current regarding the financial condition of the Standard Life. It is indeed more surprising in view of the history of the Negro business development in this country.
In the first paragraph you tell us that there is an occasion to be glad, for the stockholders of the Standard Life have voted to merge with the Southern Insurance Company. You justify the action on the part of the stockholders in the second paragraph by saying that it is in line with present business development. In the third paragraph you peak of the advantages of the merger with a white insurance company. Then you would make us believe that the operating personnel of the Standard
'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS'
"Glands Awakened in One Day" is the Amazing Statement of a Seventy-six Year-Old Veteran.
Lost vigor, demeaned glands and nerves; and that weak, worn-out, depressed and half-alive feeling need not be relieved by every of a well-known chastity. Now it is possible for those who feel "prematurely old" to become "rejuvenated" and often in a day's time, with Mando Fondo formula, is the amazing statement of one who has taken the treatment. This youthful and "strength" to thousands where everything else had failed.
"I want to say that my 'last vigor' was restored and 'glands renewed in the heart of Kansas City, Mo.' today I am 19, but I don't feel a day over 40. Before I started taking the treatment I felt I was growing a remarkable 'gland restoring' and my convinced my 'rejuvenation' is complete and permanent. May God bless just on the discovery of this wonderful formula, prepared by one of the largest liberators in the world and generally known as Manda, who gave the life shape in its great lily as people of all ages and ages.
Life has not been changed. Finally, you seem to think there is occasion, to relocate in this go-called "forward step."
In the first place, it is a known fact that the Standard Life merged with the Southern Insurance Company because the Southern Insurance Company acquired the majority of the stock of the Standard Life after the Standard failed to redeem the stock which it had given to secure a mortgage. This is in no wise a merger. So the first paragraph is simply an attempt to misrepresent the situation to the policyholders.
"The second paragraph is nothing but pure blather." If two insurance companies should really merge they would merge, as equals. You know as well as I that the so-called merger means the turning over to a white company the result of a decade of Negro enterprises. It is sad to read what you, or those who dictated what you were to write, say concerning the alliance with white friends. You business men have always criticized that Negroes who have protected against insult and injustice. You have told them to acquire wealth and economic independence and respect of white men would follow. Just as this seemed to be partly realized in the building up of a large Negro enterprise, lo, what do we find? This enterprise built upon the savings of the race and giving employment to a large number of colored people who are thus freed from subsistence to white people, is deliberately according to your letter, turned over to a white enterprise.
Not even ignorant Negroes will accept your explanation of the merger. The Standard Life failed because of gross mismanagement, for it is as easy to run an insurance company honestly as to make doughnuts according to a recipe. You might as well tell the race you have failed. If the building up of Negro enterprises means simply turning them over to white bosses as soon as they attain a respectable size, then deliver us from economic development.
Intelligent Negroes, perhaps, will not let their policies lapse and lose what they have placed in them, but they will not buy any more insurance to enrich the present white stockholders, although the latter have Negro hireships. If the standard Life has failed, then, the world should know it, so that it will know where to place the responsibility. Why did you not tell us who the stockholders were who voted to subordinate themselves to the lovely white people of the South? Since they have brought so much benefit to the race we would like to know who our benefactors are.
The personal and definite interest in the happiness and the prosperity of the colored people throughout the entire Southland, which you say our white friends have acquired, is very plain to every one. You could at least have shown some respect for our intelligence by not sending your letter to pollyholders who are neither fool nor willing to deliver our colored enterprises into the hands of white boozes.
I am writing you freely as you adhere.
Statement by Atlanta Negro Civic League
The greatest blow that has ever struck the business side of our racial group during the past decade was the knowledge that the Standard Life Insurance Company had been bought out by the Southern Life insurance Company, of Nashville, Tenn. Assets of over $2,000,000, which should have remained under the control and management of our racial group, now go to a group of Southern white men whose traditional attitude has been during the past three centuries that the place of the Negro was that of a serf and mental.
The Standard Life was strictly a Negro institution built with the money of Negroes for the benefit of Negroes, in the hope that their soils and their daughters might some day have the opportunity of working in an institution manned by men of their own race, for only in such an institution can any Negro hope to live and really work as a free-American citizen. I hold the above to be true and self-evident, for though we have thousands and millions of dollars in white banks and white institutions we hold no positions with them other than that of porter and scrub woman.
The Standard was built on race pride and race co-operation. A small group of Negro men (traitors) betrayed the race when they sold the majority of this stock to a white institution. On the other hand, the map or group of men who loan money with the primary object to group that which is not them, that is, not for a fair and legal rate of interest, but with the sole purpose of taking that for which they have not loaned. I may point to a man or group of men in one law for the association of benefactors. It is this clause of white business pursue that now covers the plunder. Left, the high point of the supreme condition of the white stock group being the only just injury entreaty a white business group puts upon a white stock group by giving it to accompanying Negro will make the business
women of our race that created this wealth and brought this great institution into being; for even though the material organization has been sold we believe that the man of our racial group who created this institution are still great racial giants; too loyal to their race and the ideals on which the Standard was built to give any of their efforts to the further building of assets for white pirates.
We thank God further that the sale of the Standard stock does not mean the sale of 80,000 policyholders, for these policyholders are all Negro loyal to their race and to their God. They will not be discouraged by this sale, but they will rededicate and reconcentrate themselves to the task of building up racial enterprises and will demand the cash or loan value of their policies and place their membership with some other Negro institution and thus out of the ashes of the Standard will rise a greater North Carolina Mutual, a greater Atlantic Life, a greater National Benefit, a greater Supreme Life and Causally, greater safe Negro institutions everywhere. The loss of control of this institution will not shake the confidence of our race in Negro enterprise, but apur on Negro manhood to deeds of greater achievement.
Look to God, oh black men, and swear to Him that liveth forever that pride in Negro manhood, pride in Negro womanhood, and pride in race achievement are assets that cannot be bought and sold, and though the material assets of the Standard Life, go out the race, the Negro manhood and womanhood, the agency force, and the policymakers will exercise their manhood rights and demonstrate to the world that they themselves cannot be sold, that they are above the price of gold, that they are free and independent human beings and will continue to support their race by commanding the cash burrencer value of their policies and lining up with some strictly racial institution.
Arlise, oh black men in the North,
the South, the West, the East,
linking hands and hearts create and
build newer and mighter institutions
wherein the manhood and womanhood
of the race will have a fair opportunity
of unhappened expression and advancement.

MR. MARCUS GARVEY IN SOUTH AFRICA
High Appreciation of the President General and of the Negro World for the Work They Have Done in the Work of African Redemption
To the Editor of The Negro World: Herewith, on behalf of our people in South Africa, I desire to thank you for the inspiring editorials and articles published in The Negro World. Since I have been read to be called a Negro, I am a native of Africa, although my parents came here from Martinique. French West Indies. If the black race could only digest the utterances of the Hon. Marcus Garvey appearing on the front page and elsewhere, in your columns for our uplift, we would command the respect of all nations.
We need more race pride and respect for our own leaders. If we follow the lessons now being taught us, we shall be able, when asked what we have done, to point to our achievements in commerce, finance, science as well as religion.
We have long needed a leader like the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and all Negroes everywhere should strive to hold up his arms. In his honor I have composed a poem entitled "Work and Walt." a copy of which I enclose, and for which I trust you can find space. DANIEL WILLIAM ALEXANDER, South Africa, December, 1924.
Poem Dedicated to Hon. Marcus Garvey by the Very Rev. Daniel William Alexander, Vicar Apostolic of the African' Orthodox Church in South Africa
WORK AND WAIT
Up brothers! 'Tis a mighty deed
Angels would covet to begin,
Clapping their wings in eager speed,
A universe to win.
Toll out! It is your Master's will;
His own bright world in chaos stood
Waiting the labors of His skill
Eve He pronounced it "good."
Union is strength! A phalanx stand
Breasting the world's contempt and
scorn.
Een should, no palm-branch weigh
your hand,
No crown your brow adorn.
Truth-holy truth, deathless, divine,
Engraven on the immortal scroll:
With God's eternal throne for shrine,
Empire from pole to pole.
Does this demand your reverend care?
A martrydom of faith and zeal?
Armed for the battle, bodily dare
The issue, woe or weal.
DECISION IN CELEBRATED CASE AGAINST MARCUS GARVEY
At the last minute as we were about to go to press the news was received that the New York Circuit Court of Appeals had handed down a decision confirming the conviction of the Hon. Marcus Garvey in the case of the alleged using of the United States mail to defraud.
An appeal will be taken to the United States Supreme Court, and all friends of Mr. Garvey are requested to do their bit in rallying to the Appeal and Defense Fund to be raised to fight the case for justice.
Mr. Garvey feels that the Negro race will not lose the opportunity of fighting against prejudice and injustice to the end and to make a record for future generations of the race, demonstrating the tremendous opposition encountered in the fight for the true emancipation of the race.
TROUBLE IN THE VIRGIN ISLANDS NOW INTENSE
Freedom of the press in the Virgin Islands from arbitrary interference by white officials will be tested in the U. S. Circuit court at Philadelphia in the appeal of Rothschild Francis, editor of the Emancipator, sentenced to thirty days on January 10 on a charge of criminal libel for an article charging brutality against a policeman. The American Civil Liberties Union which will assist in carrying up the appeal states that Francis was tried without a jury before District Judge Washington 'Williams at St. Thomas, who is "known to be his political enemy." According to the Union the conviction is "the climax of a long political feud between Francis and the naval administration, particularly Judge Williams, whose appointment the editor opposed."
Efforts on behalf of Francis will also be made by the Associated Virgin Island Societies of New York, headed by Caspar Holstein. He will be represented by A. A. Berle, Jr., New York attorney, who has specialised in Virgin Island matters.
The article for which Francis was indicted appeared in the December 27 issue of the Emancipator under the heading "A Native Batesko," and read as follows: "Something is wrong with our police force," everybody in saying. Recently a policeman fired a shot which lodged in the tub of a private citizen, then he attempted a false arrest, and before we are about to go press he used his club in a brutal manner on a woman that he was ordered to take home; we understand. Merchants and other citizens are indignant. How long, O Justice, how long?"
Francis was arraigned before Judge Washington Williams on January 6. He pleaded not guilty and was tried on January 9, and 10. The indictment filed by Government Attorney Charles H. Gibson named Phillip Mathias, a member of the St. Thomas police force, as the policeman meant in the Ennacopter article. Francis was charged with publishing "a certain false, scandalous, defamatory libel of and concerning him, Phillip Mathias, containing false, scandalous, wicked, malicious, and defamatory and libulous words and matters." Francis's request for a jury trial was denied.
The following statement on the case was issued today by the Civil Liberties Union: "Boththle Francis was tried and found guilty by a man whom he has opposed as hostile to the wel-

fare of the Virgin Islands. In reply to criticisms by Francs appearing in the New York Times Current History Magazine, Washington Williams, when Government Attorney and Police Judge of the Virgin Islands, published an article in the January 26, 1924, issue of the St. Thomas Mall Notes, attacked Francs as 'the loudest-mouthed howler on the subject of the freedom of the press' and a 'calamity howler and publicity secker'.
"On July 7, 1924, Francs published in 'the Emancipator two protests against the appointment of Williams to his present post of district judge. One protest was addressed to President Coolidge by the Associated Virgin Islands Societies of New York, the other to Governor Phillip Williams by the Civil Liberties—Union, specifically warning that 'the feeling between Williams and the inhabitants of the islands has been no notoriously bitter that they fear he would use his new post to battle old scores."
"Articles criticizing the naval administration appeared in the Emancipator in August and September. Attempts to punish Francis were made several times unsuccessfully. Government Attorney Charles H. Gibson, who filed the present indictment, threatened Francis with a litalic suit following articles of election irregularities appearing in the Emancipator on September 27 and 29. "Under these conditions it is a travy oty on justice for Judge Williams to try Francis without a jury. The article for which Francis was indicted is purely political. His conviction" by a political foe is a dangerous form of press censorship."
Judge Washington Williams is a native of Maryland. He has often been accused by Virgin Island papers of anti-Negro prejudice. Frequent protests against naval rule in the islands have been sent to the government by Virgin Islanders and their friends. A bill establishing a permanent civil government in the islands is now pending in Congress.
GARVEY'S VIEWPOINT OF AFRICA FOR AFRICANS
GARVEY'S VIEWPOINT OF AFRICA FOR AFRICANS
From The Omaha Monitor
Marcus Garvey, if we understand his position, maintains that the black race can never come into its own in America and that its only salvation is to migrate to the 'land of its forefathers and build up a great and powerful empire in Africa. We believe that, stripped of details, fundamentally this is his contention. Is Garvey right? That race prejudice is increasing rather than decreasing as our race advances in thrift, intelligence, wealth, moral worth, character and self-respect, cannot be denied by the thoughtful student of social phenomena. In striking contrast, however, to this increasing prejudice is the ever-enlarging number of thoughtful and fair-minded white men and women—who realising the injustice, as well as the danger of this attitude are doing all within their power to combat it. Then, too, it must be noted that in spite of opposition we, as a group, have made, and are making wonderful progress. This progress we hold answers Garvey's charge that the black race can never come into its own in America. It is coming slowly, we grant, but steadily into its own. That Africa offers golden opportunities for those who have the pioneer spirit and the spirit of the pioneers is doubtless true. That as knowledge of this group among our people ventureures youth will seek their fortune there cannot be doubled, but that there will ever be the evacuation of America by vast multitudes of Negroes full, quite possible, is scarce probable—While one views the growing prejudices against Negroes in America it is easy to account for Garvey's contention and those who believe he does. Then, however, one asks other significant factors that cannot agree with him. The Negro who has governed so long by the meeting of America will come from his own and his native realms—just on speaking there in a German town. Garvey will power Africa and give prosperity to its American will develop America and plant one born here the American by his own.

GREAT FIGHT FOR NEGRO OFFICERS FOR FIFTEENTH Unreasoning Opposition From Influential Sources Discredit the Movement and Show They Must Be Prejudiced in Favor of White Officers
The movement sponsored by Equity Congress to secure an all colored officer personnel for the Fifteenth New York Infantry has met with country-wide approval. General indignation is felt at the wholesale requests for resignations made upon colored officers of the regiment, and the congress is in receipt of letters of encouragement and support from large numbers of substantial citizens of the race. It is the almost universal feeling that, since the ranks of the regiment are composed solidly of colored men, the officers should be colored, too.
There have been some three or four discordant notes on the part of citizens viewing the matter purely from a political standpoint. Equity Congress is not fighting a political battle. Its fight is racial. Mr. Fred R. Moore one of the leading editors of the race, does not approve of the present campaign of the congress. He says the contact between white and colored officers is good. If that is so, why is not contact between white and colored privates equally good? Resultantly, why not mixed regiments all the way down the line? Editor Moore's theory does not seem to be a consistent one, unless he still retains the feeling of that ancient and fast dying out element that nothing can be worth while unless there is a white man at the head of it.
Another gentleman who does not approve of the campaign is Mr. Michigan Brown, clerk of the Seventh District Court, and it is understood that Counselor Poe M. Billips is also in opposition to the movement, notwithstanding the whole-hearted support given Mr. Billips by Equity Congress in the recent election. However, there are just a few of these dissenting voices. The rank and file of the race and country over are substantially in favor of the proposition, and Equity Congress is daily receiving letters and telegrams of congratulation and pledges of support.
The battlefield of the black regiments on the battlefields of France conclusively proved that the type of military leader has now been developed within the race who is thoroughly capable of leading military organizations, and we propose to see that these men do lead. Altogether too few of our race have risen high above the ranks in the regular army, and when those few reached a certain grade that the War Department considered "high enough for a Negro," altogether too many of our editors and leading citizens sat pumphly by and saw the other side tracked, assigned to inferior duties, and other humiliated and belittled in a way to make impossible his further advancement.
With Negro militia units capably officiated by men of their own race, in the event of war and the necessity for raising large numbers of regiments from the ranks of the citizens of the country, these officers and those of the regular army would be eligible for advancement to even higher grades, rather than demotion and assignment to inferior duties, and the country would see to it that they were so advanced. And never again would a Secretary of War, indeed a President, have the temerity to by subterfuge shunt aside an officer, simply because of his color, and prevent the promotion that was rightfully and meritoriously his.
Ex-Governor Sulzer in his magnificent letter to the "Amsterdam News" has absolutely clarified the situation with respect to the intent of the law as regards the officers of the regiment. When he signed the bill it was his understanding that the real intent was that the entire personnel, officers and men, should be colored. At the time there was a law that before a member of the militia could be eligible to receive a commission, he must have served three years in the State Guard. This law automatically prevented the appointment of colored officers when the regiment was organized, but large numbers of men have now served more than the required three years, and such of these men as are competent should have opportunity for advancement.
Furthermore, in 1918, Assemblyman
Healy (Democrat) introduced a bill
making eligible for appoinment as of

NEGRO HOTEL SERVICE AND THEIR PATRONS
Written for The Negro World
By VIRGINIA WESTON
People who have traveled and are used to hotel life have many quiet laughs to themselves. There are folks who say, "Indeed, I wouldn't eat 'th a restaurant or live in a hotel. You never know what you are eating, and hotels are so expensive." As for the eating part of it, were we to analyze everything we eat we would die from starvation. Hotel expenses depend on your business or profession. Theatrical folk and advertising agents are on the road constantly. Anyone belonging to the former profession will tell you he has no pathway that is strews with roses.
A business firm always selects a man who laughs at disappointments, because one can easily meet them stopping at some of our Negro hotels. It would be very inconvenient for a prospective customer to be interviewed in a private home.
Arriving in a town at a late hour of the night, ringing someone's doorbell, one would receive anything but a hearty welcome.
Whether it be day or night, should you enquire of some elevator boys in New York city, if a certain person lives in the apartment house, they will perly inform you that they are no public information bureaus. The greater you hurry to get upailts, the longer the elevator boy prolongs his conversation with the switchboard operator about the "numbers."
The average Negro is very liberal, but there are such a meeny few who give efficient service that those who do find that their services are not appreciated. I have seen some very courteous boys pampered and ignored by some of our "elite" as though they were objects in a museum.
One thing that can be said in behalf of a hotel, there isn't a half dozen victoria playing at the same time, with someone over your head, walking the floor with a royal baby who is cutting its first imperial tooth. In these New York hotels one doesn't have to be disturbed hearing the bellboys run up and down the stairs, as they have no bellboys. When you give the chambermalt any instructions of any consequence, be sure you don't stand near a window and distract her attention, for she will blankly turn and ask, "What did you say?"
If a telegram comes about midnight, don't expect it until the next morning, as the desk clink will tell you he thought you were out. Make it a point to have your own towel, as the laundry man may be late. You'll never get scalded from the hot water, although the rooms are fairly comfortable. The Negro business man can smoke more cigars, tell someone else what to do, and drag more ashes in an hour, than all the essential work he would do around his own place in six weeks. There is always something for busy hands to do, and if the hands cannot be soled, then the brain is still in its place, and there are always new plans to be made and carried out.
What a pity we are after the white man in everything but business. Success to the boy or girl who is making the best of his or her opportunities in the commercial world depends upon efficiency. The world is crying for efficient men and women. Efficient men and women can command their pay. When you know your work and do it people only bother you when seeking for information. We all admire the person who is bright and efficient.

Busi Lo
jusiness Methods
The venturesome' but uninitiated
spirit, faring-forth into the practically
unexplored and uncharted land of
Negro business, mitt recognize the
fact that success In buNiness seldom,
if ever, comes by accident. The suc-
cegstnl merchant has, consciously or
unconsciously, adopted certain methodn
as old as business Itself and as noces-
sary ‘as capltal and stock. A diste-
gard of theso findamental principles
in the conduct of trade Invariably ro-
gutts in dissatisfaction on the one hand
and failure on the other.
Negro merchants might well observe
the methods of successful tradesmen
of other races und take for thelr own
those which they believe to be good.

Success Hes in uniform and harmonious
cooperation between tho two, For either
side to fall short usually means failure.
But always, always, a merchant needs
to bear in mind. that competition ts,
great and upon his shoulders rests the |
burden of pleasing the buyer. First of
all: the buying public expects and often
demands courtesy. .If It fs not extended,
the managers may not receive any com:
plaints but a slow and sure decrease {a
volume of business will Inevitably fol-
low. This acems to be the last consid-

attitude of some Negro business men
would lead one to believe that they
confer the grestest favor upon the
buyer by serving him at all. Indifter-
ence, curtness and many times impu-
dence are outstanding characteristics of
many Negro merchants. For some rea-
4on or other they get {t into their heads

'°. LETS PUT-IT OVER ‘|
‘WE. FREE SHIP AND THE- SLAVE SHIP. AND
OTR SHIP
: ARLY in the seveniceyth ctntury, within a’ year, two ships
Ee for America. ‘One was the Mayflower;'it carried s
SSR band of Puritans who were leaving ‘their beloved England
‘or. of liberty. The other was a slave ship; it carried a
argo of blgck.men who were-torn from their native Africa for the
wke-of slavery. These two ships; representing opposite -principles,
+ carried: with them the conflicting elements that were destined to
—eatsse the greatest civil war in history. They-almost tore this:country
A new history just off the press goes further than that; it reminds
—1we-0f the—well-Known_historical_fact that the conflict between _free-
dom, and slavery almost prevented the establishment of the United
States. That book is “The American States During and After the
Revolution,” by Allan Neviris, It treats of the.colonies up to the
year 1789, when, Washington became President. :
People nowadays think that the four years of the Civil War were
the most critical period: of. American history. They do riot realize
that the sixeyears from 1783 to 1789 were the greatest crisis. It
was 8 giant’s job to get thirteen states to pull together. Besides
ordinary jealousy they had conflicting ideals, customs, and material
4utevents. New England was the stronghold of democracy; Penn-
“gytwania was dominated by the pacifist Quakers; the Southern
colonies, with their system of serfdom, were founded upoa aristoc-
meay.” Massachusetts and Virginia were direct opposites. George
Washington, whea:he took command of the Revolutionary army
fa Massachusetjs, called the Yankee farmers “exceedingly dirty and
nasty.” Wastington, by birth and wealth, was an aristocrat; he
never cared for the common people, black or white.
* At the Constitutional Convention the Northern States wanted
slavery abolished and the Southern delegates were ready to quit
and go home. Slavery was the mainstay of the South. Years after- |
ward, when the first protective tariff bill was passed, in 1816, the
Southern States refused to obey it and President Andrew Jackson
had to threaten to send Federal troops to South Carolina. The tariff
‘Dal gps passed to keep cheap European goods oyt of the country,
thas protecting American business men. But the South wanted
these cheap goods to be traded for her own cheap goods apd her
goods were cheap because she did not have to pay her laborers, who
were slaves. Finally she seceded from the Unioi on the slave issue.
Thus, from the beginning of ‘the United States, and before the
beginning, the Negro question was paramoiint jn all the conflicts
between the South and the North. The dissensions often carried
other names, such as the States’ Rights principles or Tariff Nullifi-
eetion, but the main underlying reason was the possession of slaves
by..the South. Those two ships of the, year 1619 and 1620 were
broken up for firewood three hundred years ago, but the conflict]
they brought to this country is not settled to this day. =
. None of. those who came over here on the free ship and the slave
ship, some three hundred and five years ago, could have dreamed
that the slave system would have passed away in fire and flame and
blood, and that the descendants of those who, came over on the slave
ship would own and operate a steamship of thei? own, and call her
mame the S. S. Booker T. Washington through the masterful efforts
of Marcus Garvey;, backed up by the membership of the Universal |.
Negro Improvement Association. Surely the old order passeth and
th> pew order js at hand. |

“CRITICIZING- THE CHRISTIAN MARRIAGE
RELATIONS
JHE NATION is a liberal magazine and its subscribers hold
I a banquet every year at which things are discussed from a
. liberal viewpoint. We were hardly prepared, however, for
the subject of this year’s dinner discussion. It scems that the ques:
tion was, “Ig Monogamy Feasible?” Elsie Clews Parsons and others
threw a lot of doubt on the-institution of matrimony as we know it
One: man said that in many cases it is hypocrisy and in others it is
only dignified prostitution.” In short, most of them seemed to think
it was hell. . .
What we want to know is, what can they do about it? If they
follow their criticisms to the logical ‘end they must advocate cither
polygamy or no marriage at all—free love. Oi course such critics
‘never have the practical courage of their convictions. Ax.advanced
woman will advocate free love from the rostrum and then proscente
anyone. who calls her a free lover.” She will rail against marriage
and then marry the man she wants—if she can get him. .
After all, mankind is wise?-than any one man or woman, “These
advanced thinkers do not seem to know that what they’are advo-
cating is old stuff, as old as the history of mankind. Men tried it
out a hundred thousand years ago. Lctourneau’s book on the origin
and history of the family would open some of these liberals’ eyes.
First, men tried promiscuous free love. just like the beasts, in
which the father had absolutely no respousibility for his offspring.
They found it wouldn't work; it was too hard on the woman, for
one thing. Then they tried polygamy. which means the marriage
of one man to a flock of women. ‘They found that that wouldn't

Those ‘people who have, read
the agtictes in the December and
January is3ties of Opportunity, by
Mr. Eugene F. Gordon, “Out-
standing ‘Negro Newspapers,” will
haye not-only learned a great deal
about Negro newspapers, but
about How success in newspaper
work must be achieved or not at
all. A very great mariy people
have a mind that they’ can write
anything, that is on: their, mind,
and with which they are very
much in love, without: knowing
anything about thexrules that
govern the sort .of composition
they want to write. You would
be ‘surprised at the number of
people who have a mind like that,
which is funny enough in all con-
science, df-it did not give editors
so much ttoublé in going through
vast masses, of manuscripts to
try and find'if there is any val-
uable thought in it ail and the
authors ‘so much disappointment
and, vexation when their articles
are ‘rejected. =
By’ czading Mr. Gordon's ar-
ticles closely people who want. to
write correctly will learn a whole
lot they’should know. Think of
a man trying to do the work of a
brick mason “ar carpenter, or a
woman trying to do’ the work of
a school teacher or seamstress or
good cook. without first learning,
hoy he should go about and do.
the work, And, yet, all sorts of
people think that’ they can write |
prose or verse on any-sort of sub- |
lect without learning first how |
it must be done. Must! If it is not
done as it should be it generally
is not accepted..whether it be a
newspaper or -magazine article
ara book. In that case the editor
has wasted his time and the writer
las”a big “disappointment coming
to him, which hé usually: loads
thé editor with and not himself.
le thinks the editor i¢-ignorant,
and’ some have written me can-
lidly they so think, or that he is
prejudiced in some way. \ real
editor can't be ignorant and hé
an't. have any prejudices; he
nust be open-to evaluate work
imply on its merits, That is
ually the case, but the person
who fails to get -his article ac-
epted seldom thinks so. *
In news articles all that ‘is
eded is to. get the facts and
tate.them plainly and without
spressing any ‘opinion . about |
hem. ‘That is not the business
f the reporter but of the editor.
nw urticles of opinion have a sub-|

Association that the prejudice uf this country and the world-against the

A Very Timely Discussion of the Feminine Tendencies of the Times That Is Making Themselves Felt in the Life of the Race
This formidable array—K. K. K. K—does not signify the fourth dimension of the Ku Klux Klan, as the cacophonous aggregation of Ks might suggest, but rather an assemblage of the essential feminine functions, according to the philosophy of the late Emperor of Germany. The deposed despot used to be fond of saying that woman should confine her energies to "Kinder, Fuchs, Kleider Kirche," which, being translated into English means: "Children, Kitchen, Clothes and Church." The chief object of this proletarian policy was to produce soldiers to fight for the state and workers to feed the fighters. Under the stimulus of this idea the German multiplied in numbers and increased in power still she became easily the first state in Europe. On the other hand, France has followed the will-o-the-wisp of the "sage female," which has reduced her population to the verge of extermination. These rival countries contain about the same area. The early start and prestige were in favor of France. A hundred years ago she had more than twice the population of Germany. But today the more prolific race has not only outstripped her sterile rival in population, but has surpassed her in every feature of material and substantial power. During the World War France could no more have stood alone against Germany than a piggy against a giant. Even today, if the allies should go the Teuton nation could master the Gaul with one hand tied behind her back. This relative superiority is undoubtedly due to the temperative fecundity of the two nations.
The most fundamental problem before the human race today is the problem of sexes. It transcends in importance the issues of race, the adjustment of capital and labor, or the conflict of creeds. Historically, woman has been treated as the inferior and subordinated set. Woman has been dominated and exploited for the selfish uses of the more lordly male members of the species. She has been fondled as a toy, a tool or a plaything. Man has never taken her seriously as a competitor or as a coworker. But in this progressive age the whole basis of sex relationship is being reformed. Women are asserting their claims, as a co-equal with man. She is fast becoming a factor to be felt in industry, education and in politics. The biological function of the female is to bear their children, which, if effectively performed, will necessarily engage the chief energies of the

producing sex. No scheme of philosophy or social-reform can alter this basic responsibility imposed by nature from the foundation of the world of living things. The liberalization of woman must always be kept within the boundary fixed by nature. Tampering with the decrees of nature jeopardizes the very continuance of the human race.
'Anyone who stands athwart, the path of the advancement of woman may rightly be called a fossil or a mossback. One had just as well stand against the movement of the stars in their courses as try to keep woman in her traditional and accustomed place. Indeed, a mere man is risking his composure and peace of mind when he even ventures to discuss these things.
I have laid this broad basis for a limited superstructure. Indeed this is the penalty which I am constantly paying for being black. I find myself in possession of a world mind limited to special racial environment. When I would essay a universal theme I am soon reminded of the narrowness of its application. And I must not now discuss the subject of sex in its general bearing upon human welfare, but must limit the thesis to the special situation of the Negro race. Just as the sex problem is the greatest question which engages the attention of mankind, so it is of paramount importance in relation to the racial community now under discussion.
The Negro woman labors under the double disadvantage of belonging to the weaker sex and to the weaker race. Her status and its betterment therefore form a problem of deepest social concern. Her progress has been marvelous, whether measured from the starting point or by the high place which she has attained in our social scheme. Indeed, so rapid has been her advancement along the line of general progressive movement that we have neglected the inquiry as to how far she has failed in the essential function of motherhood. Whatever other attainment the sex may achieve it will all prove to be but racial vanity and vexation of spirit if there is failure in this high and holy function. The time has come for Negro statesmanship to study carefully and to think soberly upon these things.
Several years ago I undertook a study in eugenics, based upon the 55 colored members of the Howard University faculty. In the families from which these teachers were derived there were 363 children, or an average of 6.5 for each family. On the other hand, these 55 teachers so far have contributed 37 children or an average of 0.7 of a child for each potential family. Twenty-two were married and 33 single. The number of children to each family so far formed as 1.6. Four of the families were barren, and four had one child each. The average age of the single members was over 32 years, which clearly indicated that even if they should subsequently marry their offspring would be few. From a wide acquaintance with the upper section of the Negro race under a variety of circumstances and conditions, I am fully persuaded that the Howard University group is typical of the like element throughout the race, so far as secuity is concerned. A study of the teachers in the public schools of Washington' the physicians, lawyers and other educated groups would tell the same sterile story. The teachers in the public schools are mainly women who fall to marry for economic reason. About ten years ago, the Washington School Board passed a regulation by which a female teacher might retain her position in the schools after marriage. Since that time, a great many have availed themselves of the opportunity. But the number of children resulting from such maturing is practically negligible. The city of Washington is filled with bachelors and old maids. The number of childless families is astounding. One or two children constitute the average.
I wish to call upon observers in other communities to look into local situations, and determine for themselves if the picture which I have painted of Washington does not apply throughout the country. The cause, is obvious. The prolonged period of education delays marriage. The high standard of living which the forward looking Negro feels that he is forced to observe causes still further delay. The frantic endeavor to keep the pace set by the more favored race militates to the same end. The conscious purpose of race outside also contributes somewhat to the low birth rate. There are many of sensitive and timid spirit who shirk the responsibility of parenthood because they do not wish to bring Negro children into the world with the birthmark of prescription branded on their birth. Will this tendency which threatens the extinction of the advanced section of the race continue to spread in the future as at present? Or is it merely first effects of the first generation after alluvium under the severe storm and plains of sudden rainfall? The sudden from the home to the upper floor of life is a bold and intelligent fact that cannot be inaccurately attributable to the magnificent may it be induced from the
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1925
bottom stratum which follows the unlicensed law of instinct. The vacuum in the upper stratum will be filled by the vigorous element pushing up from below. The real danger lies in the fact that the self-destructive tendency will be handed down to the masses. Every communication corrupts social practice as well as good manners. An eminent scientific authority has declared that the human race would speedily become extinct if all women should delay marriage until twenty-six.
It is not manly. Adam like, to place the blame on the woman. The male sets the social standard which the female follows. If the small family or no family at all is the prevailing social mode, it is because the male prefers it so. The whole idea is bad. The zest for frivolities and gayeties of the hour tends to defeat the ultimate social aim. We should think in long units of time, and not give over ourselves to the evanescent pleasures that are born and dies in a day.
The race should subject itself to serious self-examination. Are the present tendencies laying the basis for a better future or are we building on a foundation of sand? Are we preparing our girls for future motherhood or are they being led astray by self-destructive flippancies? Are our high schools and colleges teaching them the things essential to home and family building? Whatever else a woman may know, her education is sadly deficient if it does not fit her for her essential function in the social scheme. Our newspapers are giving too much attention to crime, frivolous sports, social excrescences, gossip and scandal. The young people whose mind feeds on such things will have poisoned imaginations. The fabric of the family is subtly undermined. The jazz manners, bobbled hair and bobbled dress of our young women do not promise serious future life life.
Let me formidable myself. I believe in the enlargement of the woman's sphere. I believe that superior women, equally with superior men, should have the fullest opportunity to develop and exert their higher capacities. I do not believe in the old Puritanic regime for other sex that wars against human nature. I believe in the free play of the spirit giving unhindered scope for the outlet to the playful instincts of youth. I take little stock in the derogation of these degenerate days. I do not believe that the cost of hair or style or style of dress is a co-efficient of character, nor that girlish liveliness is inconsistent with womanly loveliness and worth. But I do believe, with an unshakable conviction, that our women are venturing too far from the four K's—Kinder, Kuche, Kleider, Kirchle.
WEEKLY SERMON
By G. EMONEI CARTER
Subject: "Secure Building."
Text: "Again, I will build thee, and
thou shalt be built."-Jer. xxvl. 4.
The text implies that in the life of
Israel some building had been done by
some one. And this building had been
largely "jerry-building," but the time
had arrived when a "Master-mind"
would direct the building. To insure a
durable building it is necessary that
its guiding intelligence should be of
the highest, and that which was true
in the life of the Israelites is true in
the life of our people.
I. A right foundation is essential. Superstructures endure, withstand and remain in proportion to the lasting, hardiness and durability of its makeup. Any building that crumbles and falls has had its foundation lines insecure. Any race or nation that builds on an uncertain foundation is sure to fail. Truth and righteousness are essential as foundation elements, and without these little can be accomplished that even savors of permanency. The foundation must certainly conform to the lines of the superstructure. That is to say, a square building cannot rest on a circular foundation, nor can a triangular superstructure fit a rectangular base. So it is with races and nations. Square actions circumvent circular movements, and triangular doings are misfit in rectangular requirements.
What we want and what we must have in our foundation laying is proper management or guidance, as well as the necessary elements to insure safety. I plead for a laying aside of selfishness and a daily manifestation of liberal, Christian sacrifice. I plead not a lost cause but a cause that is sorely neglected, because men delight in doing the easy things, whether building or what not.
Our race is to be fully emancipated. The right foundation is to be laid. Jehovah-God is to be the cornerstone, and upon this Rock everlasting we can build with security. Upon this Rock we can weather every storm. Upon this Rock we can refuge when the flames of persecution are sweeping o'er our, pathway. Upon this Rock we can anchor when the tides of destruction ascend in their turbulency. Here we rest until the storm has subsided and our foundation has been tested in the most severe manner.

MY BROTHER'S FACE. By Dhan
Gopal Mukerji. E. P. Dutton &
Company. $3.
AMONG THE BRAHMINS AND PARIAHS. By J. A. Sauter, Translated
from the German by Bernard Miall.
Bont & Liveright. $3.
These two volumes, both dealing with present day India, are far apart in spirit and purpose. Dhan Gopal Mukerji is a native of India, a Brahmin, who for twelve years has studied and absorbed the West. Not unsympathetically he has lived the life of Europe and America, but, with all its creature comforts, there is something lacking in his soul. The longing to go back to his native land, to seek there the spiritual satisfaction which the West has denied him, fills his heart. Appreciating the benefits of Western material progress, Mr. Mukerji is persuaded that India, in her spirituality has a greater gift for mankind than anything that Western science has produced. With all his Western training he remains enough of a Brahmin to believe that this spirituality, this contemplation in the immediate presence of the soul, is a possession far surpassing all Occidental values.
Just before reaching India, Mr. Mukerji has a conversation with an Arab. They agree in condemning the barrenness of Occidental speech. They miss such Oriental epithets as "Soul of excellence," "Thou Jewel of speech," "Thou Very Self of Felicity," and when Mr. Mukerji tells his companion that an American gentleman of his acquaintance called his wife "Honey" the Arab was sad indeed. "What dumbrek! Even love cannot set fire to their tongue."
Inspired, perhaps, by this conversation, the author strives mightily to ornament his English phrases with these jewels of Oriental speech. He achieves much the same effect as would a gentleman in golf togs by adorning himself with the rubles and diamonds of a maharalah.
But this is manner. In the matter of the book there is much to record and the reader. India's new appreciation of the leaders against Britain is interesting. The author describes his brother as a man of serene nobility, deep in his religious meditation, in which there is no trace of fanaticism and with no suspicion of rancour in his heart. Yet he was the head of the militant Nationalists of India, a political rebel and for six years a fugitive. To the British he was a "terrorist," a "subverter of law and order" "a monstrous anarchist." But, the brother this his own life story to the end that we may see that he was more of these. German influence and Bolshevik influence are alike scournefully denied. The final proof of his disinterested sincerity comes in his contact with Gandhi. Overcome by the Nathman's spirituality, convinced of the truth of his doctrine of "soul force against sword force," the erstwhile militant rebel disperses his adherents, makes his peace with the British Raj, and becomes a follower of the new prophet.
Through the book runs the note of Gandhi worship. If a ship is successfully docked the onlookers about "Victory to Gandhi!" If a play arouses enthusiasm the cry of the audience is "Victory to Gandhi!" With men and women in all walks of life the coming pilgrim talks of the political situation, and all of them, with exceptions so few and so well selected that they but emphasize the approach to unanimity, all are disciples of Gandhi. It is remarkable that a people so wrapped in spirituality and meditation should be so universally keen on politics. The most politically inclined
of the nations of the West cannot compare with these dusky sons and daughters of India, however high or lowly be their station. And Gandhi is their prophet.
Some indeed are too restless, too much in a Western hurry, to brook the restraints of the muster. The author had "an unforgettable afternoon" with a group of university students. Not a single one of them had any respect for the Western mind. "Civilization comes from the East as does the sun. The West has nothing to teach us." Hindu medicine and chemistry. Hindu mathematics. Hindu music, art, philology, if they are not self-sufficient, have: host as much as the West as the West has given them. And where India herself did not suffer, Chholea, China, Japan were called to redress the balance in favor of the Orient. "Should we how to the Western savage simply because he has the lung power to chout that he is superior? He has invented poison gas, liquid fire, and peace proclamations, then he comes to us, Bible in one hand and hand grenade in the other. Which is savage—he or we?"
This sort of talk saddened the returning pilgrim. When these students left he felt "dreamed in melancholy." This was crude, vulgar, of a type with the assumption of certain Westerners that the Nordic race was ordained to rule (as slaves) all other races. Such doctrine waters the seed of war race; arrogant West against arrogant East. But this is not one of the chief influences which are moving India. "Today there are two powerful forces in India: men and Gandhidhan, modern industrialism and the Spirituality of medieval India. The two have come to grips. No one can foretell the outcome. The most peoplexing thing in the struggle is that medievalism is now master of resilience and speed; it may outspread industrialism."
We would finger over a holy man's explanation of Wilson's failure at Paris, over Oriental criticisms of Faust, of Hamlet, and over other delighting interludes; we would repeat the biographical version of the Aurora affair; we would tell of the author's visit to Tagore and his newly founded university, but lack of space forbids. In the course of his visit Mr. Mulkey finds much of Western influence to complain of. Mismatched Gothic buildings, ugly London suburban homes, telephones. Forces a misunderstanding of clothing hiding the beauty of brown bodies, some of the results of Christian mission work, the antiquities of the scales of justice between European and native, all the evils in the train of industrial revolution, the commercialization of the Indian arts, factories on the banks of the sacred Ganges, garments and evening dress among the newly Irish and but not least the cinema and substitution of Chopin for Kallidas. Nevertheless, he tries again to the West and, through the nights that blur his vision perceives far away on the horizon that there, too, is the brother's face.
If the reader is careful away by Mr. Mukeraj's enthusiasm the potentiality of his native land the antidote is at hand in Mr. Sutter's volume. The author is a German who has wandered so long in India as to be able to make his way into the inner life of the people as few foreigners can hope to do. Here is no preparatory, no polygons, no argument. Mr. Sutter is a traveler after the manner of Ossendowski. While we wonder how many unique and stirring experiences could possibly fall to the lot of one man, the writer's manner, his utter sincerity, convinces us.
Whatever the apportionment of credit between author and translator, here is an English style which, ignoring the flowers and jewels for which the Mukeraj pleads, attains a measure

EACH IN HIS OWN TONGUE
BY IONA E. MOLENON
A fine mist and a planet,
A crystal and a cell;
A jellyfish and a saurian,
And caves where caves men dwell,
Then scene of law and beauty,
A face turned from the cloud—
Some call it evolution,
And others call it God.
A haze of the far horizon,
The infinite, tender sky;
The ripe, rich lines of the cornfields,
And the wild geyes sailing high,
All over the uplands and lowlands,
The charm of the goldenrod—
Some of us call it autumn,
And others call it God.
Like tides on the crescent sea beach.
When the moon is now and thin,
Into our heart's high yearning.
Come, welling and surging in,
sine, from the mystic ocean.
Those rum no foot has trod...
Some of us call it longing.
And others call it God.
A picket frozen on duty.
A mother starved for her bread.
Sorrates drinking the hemlock.
And Jesus on the wood.
Millions who nameless and humble.
This straight land pathway plod—
Some call it consideration.
And others call it God.

of perfection which my well rank this book as literature. Mr. Snutter is gifted with an artist's eye. His pen is the brush of a master. He has painted a series of pictures and hung them for us in the gallery of this book. What excellence of line? What brilliance of color? What artistic intensity? What vivid reality! The earlier scenes depict the serene beauty of the life of the upper caste Hindu. But it is not this by which the artist holds up. He grows in power as he brings before us the wretched, the poignant, the gruppant, even the bloatheous, which has beneath the surface.
Being a German he has no compunction—and apparently no malice—in getting forth the shortcomings of the British administration where it comes in contact with the individual native of the masses. The supreme indifference, the explicit heartlessness even the crass brutality of a British police inspector are set out in light colors. Cells, dimensions, klecks and clubs for accused men and old women, while their younger sisters must minister to his host. His mounting wealth on the merger salary of an inspector is derived from tribute levied upon the lawbreakers whom no allows to feed the evil appetites of their followers. Gambling hell, lawfully house and opium den all contribute their share. Even in turn is compounded before us in all its unsettled detail on the mad touch of the aristro.
We come before the beleaguered result of the Gujarati curse, from the disgusting custums of some of the lower castes, easily at the neggedy contests of godly introspection of opposing Christ son sects, shiver at the repulsive detritious of the lepers, feel the grief haggardness of women, small before the horrible deprivation of the plague. And last we have not had our even the monkey people are called upon to furnish a scene at once potent and revolting. As we proceed down this gallery we stand to confess how one scene after another repelled yet devastated by the horror it so vividly depicts. The climax is reached in the story called "Buried Alive."
Mr. Sutter does not answer Mr. Muktaeng. One can hardly think of him caring to do so. Yet he has vividly depicted a side of Indian civilization

Another Drawing Card on the Order of "The Demi-Virgin" Presented at the Popular House at Popular Prices
As further evidence that it is the intention of the management of the Lafayette Theatre to give its patrons only the very best the amusement market provides, it has been decided to present another one of those highly diverting French farces that scored such a triumph in the case of "The Demi Virgin". Beginning next Monday and continuing for one week, "Getting Gertie's Garter" will be the attraction at this popular home of up-to-date entertainment.
"Gertie's Garter" is another one of those rare andracy. Avery Hopwood effusions, only this time he wrote in collaboration with Wilson Collison, another of our most brilliant writers. Mr. Collison has been responsible for almost as many successful plays as Mr. Hopwood, and when two such master-minds conspire to give Mr. and Mrs. Public something worth while their mental offspring can be absolutely depended upon to give a lusty account of itself. No play, not even "The Demi Virgin," achieved greater success on broadway than did "Gertie's Garter." It ran for nearly two years, that at the Fitzlinge Theatre and later it was moved to another house where capacity business followed it. It is a typical force comedy of French school of farce. Filled to the brim with trite, spicy lines and situations it quickly submerges the audience in an ocean of unsmpressed laughter, followed alternately with thrills and gasps born of its daring.
The company to present the "Garter" at the Lafayette will be of the same high degree of excellence as that which so recently presented the "Virgin." in fact there will be many of the same organization in the cast next week. In this case Alonzo Fenderson will be the featured one. He will be assisted by Marle Young in the title part, Rudolph Grey, Marlon Taylor, Bardington Cagney, Daisy Pizarro, Baby Green, and others. Fenderson was made for the part he is to play and his sense of humor is so infectious that it becomes epidemic. It has been sold of Mr. Fenderson that he is the only human being who ever brought a relaxation of the immobility of feature that has lasted through the ages and caused the Sphinx to smile. We cannot verify this report, but we are willing to admit his rare ability as a light comedian. He firmly established this by his work in "The Demi Virgin." The story of "Gifting Gertie's Garter" is more or less an audacious one with the search for this dainty bit of tenemna wearing apparel as the foundation. From this pivotal center radiates screams of laughter in every direction. To tell more of the story here would sound much of the pleasure that comes of surprises and these are endless as the elastic circle itself. There will be the usual daily matinee and evening performances and at the customary Friday midnight performance an extra surprise or two thrown in for good measure. The scale of prices will return to normal and the best seats can be had for $1.00.
which now well temper the new arrangement of her university students. The first as much to give, but its needs also are great. Mr. Mukerji might well be "showed to melancholy" in completing this darker side of Indian life.

Miller, Mr. Joseph Ward and Stephen Henry. After a long march about the town the musicians returned to the hall. Thus was a most pleasant and orderly outing brought to a close.
On Thursday night, January 1, 1935, a concert was held by this division. Mr. M. Goldborne and Mrs. C. Burrowes were at the organ. Beautiful songs, dialogues and recitations were rendered by various persons. A drama entitled, "Marcus Garvey's Reception in Africa by the Prince" and Princess of Ethiopia," was staged by Mr. M. Goldborne, Miss C. Archer and our executive secretary, Mr. R. S. McNish. The drama was wonderful, and was enjoyed by all present. This division extends the season's greetings to all divisions.

BARBADOS DIV., B. W. I.
On Tuesday, December 9, 1924, at our general mass meeting, the vice-president called the meeting to order at the usual hour and the opening ode, "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," was sung. The prayers of the association were next recited, after which the roll of officers was called and the minutes of the previous meeting read and confirmed.
The front page of The Negro World was next read, and at the conclusion the treasurer, Mr. John Beckles, entered the hall amid cheers. There was an unusually big gathering, for it was reported that Mr. Beckles, the president and treasurer of the division, would be chairman for the evening. The vice-president, Mr. Albert Blackman, expressed to Mr. Beckles on behalf of the members their usual cordial welcome, and then called upon Bro. Small to introduce him to the chair, whereupon Mr. Small. In his usual forceful manner, recalled all the good things done in the association by Mr. Beckles, the unstinted sacrifices which he made and still makes in the same direction, and the silent good work, such as agitating for the "Abolition of Child Labor" and his strenuous efforts in assisting to place one of his race, Mr. Christopher Brathwaite. In the House of Assembly. He then asked Mr. Beckles to preside over the business of the evening. Mr. Beckles appropriately responded and assured him that with the wholehearted support of the division he would attend meetings as often as convenient, his non-attendance being chiefly due to pressure of other duties.
the chairman, in fulfilling the important duties assigned to him, was not long in impressing his audience with the fact that he is a speaker of no mean order. In his lengthy but pithy address, he clearly deplored the N. U. I. A. at Barbados from its inception and onward, stating how he had been installed as its first president, and the overwhelming obstacles which he has had to combat from time to time by enemies within and without. He therefore urged the members to continue the struggle, and in the near future their hopes would be realized. Referring to the charter, he carefully depicted its history and the means by which it came about, mentioning also the names of those who assisted in its application. The next gave a detailed account of the life of Toussaint O'Dovert, a great son of the race, and declared him to be a far greater general, statesman and warrior than any England or France has ever produced. At this stage he produced a pamphlet entitled "The Nigerian Students," stated how he received it from some unknown person in England, and explained how the Nigerian students in England had recently given a demonstration in honor of Sir Henry Carr, the first African Resident of the Colony of Lagos, Nigeria, and mentioned that the addresses and toasts made by the students and the mistress of ceremonies displayed very high intellect. He then called upon the secretary to read the addresses of the students, the address of the mistress of ceremonies, and the toast given in honor of the Negro race. They were of a very high intellectual order, and the reading of them was frequently punctuated by cheers, thus showing the high appreciation and enthusiasm elicited at the intelligence of the race, and its gradual bent for uplift and improvement socially, intellectually, politically and otherwise.
The 'chairman's explanations during the course of his remarks left nothing to be desired. His ingenuity, affability and tact will ever enable him to succeed where others fail, and there is nothing injudicious in saying that in him the Universal Negro Improvement Association at Barbados possesses a gem of rare value. At the conclusion of the reading the Ethiopian National Anthem was lustily sung, thus bringing a spirited and enthusiastic meeting to a close.
On Sunday, January 11, the Central Macarano Division of the U. N. L. A. and A. C. L. was privileged to entertain a distinguished guest in the person of the Hon. R. H. Broucher, a delegate to the Fourth International Convention of the Negro People of the World.
The meeting was opened with the singing of the preconcertal lyrics. Tupa on Normal Lake joined the orchestra, followed by the soloist, W. H. Broucher, who was also accompanied by the instrumental lyrics. All of the soloists, accompanied by the organ, were joined by the orchestra. Mr. A. Broucher, who was also accompanied by the organ,

after which the hymn, "O. Africa Awaken," from the ritual was sung. There was a fair attendance at this meeting, and this division has been able to hold very successful meetings for three consecutive evenings. It was a very delightful sight to see members, well-wishers and critics wending their way to Liberty Hall to hear the good news brought from the convention. Credentials of the distinguished visitors were then read by the general secretary, Mr. Joseph, after which he was introduced to the house by Mr. R. G. Fuller, president of the division, amidst thunders of applause, Mr. Bachulor's address was very eloquently delivered. He explained to the audience the most striking features in the work of the last convention. On each succeeding night the gathering increased, which showed a splendid enthusiasm. It is very evident that the visit of this young champion, in the cause of liberty has brought a revival in the vicinity. He has also put new life into those who were lukewarm and silenced many critics.
During the collection, the lady president, Miss B. A. Kerr, rendered a gala. A few new members have enrolled, and the enthusiasm of the indifferent members has been rekindled through the soul-stirring address, delivered by the Hon. R. H. Bachelor, Mr. R. G. Fuller thanked the audience for their attendance on the three nights, after which the meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.

'On Sunday, January 18, 1925, a general mass meeting was called to order at 7:50 p. m. by M. Francis, Indy-president, who occupied the chale. The
singing, of the processional hymn "Shine on Eternal Light" was followed by the ode, "From Greenlands' Ice Mountains," Mr. F. B. V. Roman president, who acted as chaplain, offered prayer. The scripture lesson was read from Isaiah, 25th chapter and was followed by reading from the ritual, "For our ship at sea." After hymn No. 62 from the ritual was sung, the acting chaplain took as the text of this sermon, Daniel 3rd Chapter, 24th verse. While the collection for the evening was being lifted, the hymn, "Lord of our Life and God of Our Salvation" was sung, after which the religious part of the meeting was brought to a close.
The literary part of the meeting was opened with an address by M. Francis, lady president.
The following program was rendered: Duet, by Messrs Ramsay and Mathias, "Blessed be the Fountain of Life"; solo, in Spanish by Mrs. Maria Gabriel; address, by J. Webster, executive secretary; address, by F. B. Van Roman, acting chaplain; solo, by M. Francis, lady president, "How Firm a Foundation"; hymn, No. 107 from the ritual, "Through the night of Doubt and Sorrow"; by the congregation. The meeting was brought to a close at 9:50 p. m. with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.
DR DUDLEY HUSTLING FOR A BIG APPROPRIATION
President Dudley is spending considerable time in Raleigh these days conferring with the Budget Commission and members of the Legislature. He is asking for nearly $100,000 from the General Assembly for the expansion of the work of the college and he is putting forth numerous efforts
to secure this appropriation.
The College Glee Club sang at the North Carolina College for Women Sunday evening at the regular Venper services. The program consisted of Negro melodies and spirituals. For some years the College Glee Club has been invited to sing at this institution and the young ladies always enjoy hearing them.
On Friday evening, January 9, the First Year High School Class in Civics rendered a very interesting program in the chapel. The program consisted of a mock court trial and very interesting talks on "Our State Judiciary" and, "The Sources. From Which the National Government Derives Its Income," by Messrs. F. I. Sledgo and Freeman Ledbetter, respectively. Prof. Meghney was in charge of the program and the young men showed that they had been thoroughly trained.
On January 21 and 22 the State Farmers' Conference will be held at the College. Prominent speakers of both races have accepted invitations to address the conference on this occasion. The college is expecting the largest number of farmers that have ever attended a conference here and every effort is being put forth to make the conference a huge success.

une nouvelle jeunesse des vieux espoirs.
Le départ du Booker T. Washington en croisière, initiale dans les Antilles et l'Amérique du Centre a démontré une fois de plus ce que peuvent la coopération loyale d'un groupe et la persévérance inlassable d'un leader.
La réalisation de ce projet n'a pas été une tache des plus faciles eu égard à l'inmense opposition que la Universal Negro Improvement Association a rencontrée la où elle s'y attendait le moins, et aux difficultés inliérentes à l'inauguration, par des noirs, d'une entreprise si différente de celles dans lesques on s'était habituer à les voir s'engager, depuis les quelques soixante ans qui les séparent de l'Emancipation.
Aussi, ce fut un évientement. Plus de quatre mille membres et souscripteurs ainsi qu'un grand nombre de spectateurs étaient accourus pour assister au départ du bateau. Et bien qu'un droit d'entrée d'un dollar avait été réclamé on dut refuser du monde.
Il est incontestable que cet événement a marqué une étape de plus dans les progrès accomplis par la race. Ce qu'il y a de plus admirable c'est que rien n'a été épargné de ce qui pouvait assurer le prestige et le crédit d'bateau. Les promoteurs de l'entreprise ont bien fait les choses. Après acquisition du navire, vingt-eingang mille dollars furent dépensés le remettre à neuf, quoqu'il fut déja en bon état. Le commandement du bateau fut remis à un Norvegien. Pour le reste, tous les sous-officiers et marins sont des Noirs. Les operateurs radiographes sont aussi des Noirs.
A cela, ricin de surprenant; cette disposition étant en tout point conforme aux principes de L'U. N. 4. A. La sécurité des passagers eventuels de la ligne n'en est pas compromise de ce chef; les membres de l'équipage étant tous des mixtels eutrines. D'ailleurs, il est évident qu'aucum capitaine sériue n'aurait accepté la responsabilité de courir les hautes mers avec, sous ses ordres, des subalternes incompetents. Et c'est précipient la beau coté de la chose; c'est qu'on ait pu trouver des noirs possédant les aptitudes et connaissance vouches en un siècle si hostiles au développement des noirs. Ce n'est pas sans un sentiment de profonde fierté que les membres de L'U. N. 1. A. ont vu, ces jours derniers, un des leurs, un jeune noir portant uniforme, penetrer dans des milieux ou les noirs n'avaient point encore obtenu accès, s'occupant des diverses et multiples formalités qu'exige la sortie régulière d'un navire.
Le succès qu'a obtenu S. E. Mr Garvey dans la réalisation du rêve qu'il caresse depuis si longtemps, est un succès racial et mondial plutôt que personnel et local; car partout où le sans-fil a porté la nouvelle que la U. N. L. A. a définitivement lancé son premier bateau, les commentaires de la presse mettant une manière que "verbale" n'ont pas manqué de le désigner comme étant le bateau des noirs. Quant à la réaction morale, elle a été immense. De ce di là, on renouce des gens du peuple qui affectent de railler l'incident; mais, dans les milieux officiels, dans les milieux coliratifs, les gens qui comptent après tout, on regarde le négre avec des vents où se lissent un commencement de respect.
Ce résultat colossal est l'Oeuvre de 3,500 noirs. A eux seuls, ils ont souscrit les fonds nécessaires à l'acquisition de ce steamer; et ils ont payé tous les traits de réparation d'approvisionnement et d'assurance. Le Booker T. Washington est sorti de la rade de New York ne devant pas un sou à quiconque. Et cela disons-nous, est l'Oeuvre de 3,500 sousscripteurs; rien qu'une poignée, quand on considère la densité de la population moire du monde. Il est à souhaiter que l'Oeuvre ne s'arrêtera pas en si beau chemin, paralysée par manque de fonds. A présent que le premier pas est fait, il faut espérer que chacun se fera un devoir, une obligation de soutenir l'entreprise, soit par des contributions volontaires, soit en souscrivant à l'emprunt ouvert par la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, soit encore en accordant à cette compagnie la préférence pour le transport des irrets. La solidarité et l'amour-propre nous le commandent: sachons y obtempérer. Car cette entreprise, si elle devait s'étendre et se développer, contribuerait plus que toute autre forme d'exploitation à asseoir les bases de la prospérité des communautés noires et à affermir leur respect auprès des races avancées de la terre.
Le mot d'ordre des populations noires du globe, si toutefois elles tiennent à sortir de l'ornière ou la misère materielle et morale les fait croupir, doit être, à l'égard de tout mouvement progressiste et hardi: "Coopération et persévérance." Persévérance infine, coopération mondiale.
Vous, qui me lisez, apportez votre pierre ou votre grain de sable à l'edifice qu'on tente d'eriger, car qui sait si par suite de développement imprévisibles survenant dans les conditions sociales et raciales du globe, vous n'aurez par, par ce geste banal, préservé vos arrière-neveux du carcan de l'esclavage.

De tous les articles celui qui nous intresse le plus, maturelement, est l'etu le de Dantes. Bellagarde con acré à Pétion el Bolivar. Notre ami y raconte en détail le deux séjours en-Hatji du Liberateur.
"En accusillant à son foyer Boli-v ferugitif en eui demandant, pour prix concurre qu'elle il offre la libération des excités de l'Amerique espagnole. Haki ne faissait quoffrir au fidèle à une glorieuse tradition. Alors qu'elle était St Domingue, elle avait envoyé quinquefamille, nous le comme d'Estaining, pour l'intégration des Etats Unis de l'Amerique du Nord, fruit ensuite de son fille dont la légible sang le détaîte du destin de l'Estain.
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1928
vamah. Mais le sacrifice fut vajn, puisque les Américains gardentrent Jesclavage. (En mars '185 Dessaliens avait donné arines et munitions à Mirand!)... En 1916 Haiti eut mis toute son armée et toit son trésor au service de Simon Bolivar si le souci légitime de sauvegarder son independance quore menace ne l'avait obligée à menerager ses réserves. Mais ce qu'elle put donner elle le donna, de tout son coeur. Et le jeune héros de 31 ans qui était venu rechaucer son enthousiasme à la flamme ardente du patriotisme haïtien, fut encourage à poursuivre son dessin par le spectacle d'un peuple qui sort ier de la hul plus degradante servitude s'efforcait de s'organiser dans l'ordie et dans la liberté.
"C'est la grande fierte des haitiens d'avoir pris une part, si effective à l'émancipation des colonies espagnoles d'Amerique. L'histoire retiendra qu'ils risquèrent d'entrer en lute avec l'Espagne à un moment où leur propre independence était en peril. Les Etats-Unis restent eux mennes indifférents au sort de l'Amerique Latine jusqu'à ce que le triomphe leur cité certain en mars 1822. Et ce furent pourtant ces ans de la dernière heure qui mirent opposition, à ce que la République d'Haiti fut invité au Congo de Bogota de 1826!
"Ecartons ce souvenir désagrable. Haiti est heureuse de participer à la joie qui exalte aujourd'hui les coeurs dans toute l'Amerique de langue espagnole. Elle revendique avec orgueil sa place dans la grande famille latine. Et c'est son bonheur de pouvoir associer au nom de Simon Bolivar celui d'Alexandre Pétion, de l'homme qui mérite. et éloge supreine de l'avoir fait verser des larmes qu'à sa mort."
Hommage aux noirs des
Etats-Unis
Dans une conférence qu'il a prononcé le 21-Décembre de la Société d'Histoire et de Géographie d'Haiti sur "Le sentiment religieux chez les Négres a St Domingue", le Dr Price Mars, de la Faculté de Port-au-Prince, Haiti, a dit ceci:
"Je ne sais pas, vers l'an 2050 et les années suivantes ce que deviendra ce pays d'Laiti. J'y vois une élite avide d'après jouissances, sans ressort le sens des solidarités sociales et ethniques. Car, voyez-vous, mulle injure n'est plus grave que de dire à un homme de notre élite qu'il est un négre.... Je ne sais donc ce que deviendra ce pays dans un proche futur.... Mais par contre, je pressene un immense avenir pour les communautés négres des Etats-Unis de l'Amérique du Nord. Je pressene une éclatante victorie pour les communautés négres de l'Afrique. Et toutes ces choses se réalisent par l'élan spirituel qui galvanise ces peuples marchant sous la double hammière de la race et d la pouce." *Le Nouveilliste*, 22 December, 1924.
COMME LES ROSES
Marcha el Booker T. Washington hacia otras tierras. Ello es un hecho patente de la realización de un esfuerzo mútuo, coordinado con sana inteligencia, mejor administración, gloriosa integridad e indiscutible honradez. Para que la corporación naviera de la Cruz Negra prosiga tam gigantesca obra, es necesario que todos aquellos que deseen ayudarnos en nuestra tarea, lo hagan a su mejor pronitud, suscribiándose como lo hemos explicado antes con préstamos de veinte, veinticinco, cincuenta, cien, doscientos, trescientos, quinientos ó mil pesos, cuyas cantidades devengarán un interés de un cinco por ciento anual. Estos préstamos serán usados en la promoción del negocio de la corporación y en la ampliación de la espansión industrial de la raza.

Cette rose que vous m'aviez donnée
Qui, tout un bal embauma votre
sein.
Comme toutes les roses s'est fanée....
Les ors de son pistil se sont éteints.
La pourpre saigneuse de ses pétales
S'est enfuie, ainsi qu'un rêve trop
beau;
Ainsi qu'un rêve aux nuances
d'opale
Donit on n'a plus que le dernier lam-
beau.
La fleur que vous m'aviez offerte,
un soir.
A vu mourir son âme parfumée
Et je pleure mainteient à la voir
Connie, on pleure une morte bien-
aimée.
No solamente necesitamos el Booker T. Washington; estamos propuestos a que dentro de otro año nuestro radio marítimo se ve engrosado por otros vapores de igual 6 mejor calidad. Las tres mil quinientos personas que se han suscrito para comprar este primer vapor, deben tener por divisa el orgullo que les corresponde de haber hecho de una manera voluntaria y leal su mejor esfuerzo, para ayudar a levantar el interés comercial e industrial de la raza. Cada tres meses esperamos que otros grupos hagan lo mismo y no dudamos que de esta manera en corto periodo de tiempo la enseña de la nueva corporación naviera la Cruz Negra, se verá flotando en todos los principales puertes del globo.

Vayamos hoy mas que.nunca mas solidamente unidos para impulsar este movimiento, esta gran empresa nuestra. Todos aquellos que puedan cooperar tendrán la noble oportunidad de hacer un algo beneficioso para nuestra causa. No hay duda de que esta nueva empresa requiere capital para promover la industria naviera que hemos de fomentar. Los elementos de la raza, especialmente los de Centro America y las Antillas que tengan cargo, deberán utilizar nuestras embarcaciones para su transportación, protejiendo de ese modo los intereses de la corporación. Nuestro elemento en este país interesado en las actividades comerciales y que desen, establecer una relación más estrecha, deberán redoblar sus esfuerzos cooperativos en tal dirección.

El senador Dill, de Washington, al protestar contra el fratado de la isla de Pinos, pidió en el senado que se exigiera a Cuba comenzar inmediatamente negociaciones para el pago de una deuda de veinte millones a los Estados Unidos, que Cuba ba ignorado durante veinte años. El senador es así uno de los que ultimamente han atacado el tratado en que se reconoce el derecho de Cuba a dicha isla en el Caribe.
Realización de grandes ideales por medio de cooperación—El vapor Booker T. Washington en su primer viaje inicia una nueva era de prosperidad para nuestra raza—Mayor relación entre nuestro elemento en el hemisferio occidental—El éxito de nuestra nueva empresa naviera depende principalmente del interés y las actividades de la raza
Manifesto que en 1906, a solicitud del presidente Palma, quien temió que no podía conservar el orden ni acabar con una revolución pendiente, el presidente Roosevelt consintió en que las fuerzas de los Estados Unidos intervinieran para conservar el orden en la república de Cuba, conviviendo en pagar todos los gastos originados por la dicha intervención. El costo a los Estados Unidos es de difícil calculo, pero en la memoria presentada por el secretario de guerra el 30 de junio de 1909, se demuestra que durante la ocupación se hicieron gastos militares por valor de seis millones. En estos no estan incluidos los gastos navales e incidentales. El congressista Stevens, en una compilación cuidadosa, estableció que el costo total fue de diez millones centidad que de devengar un interés de cinco porciento aumentaria a veinte millones de dólares.
Cooperación, energía, habilidad e inteligencia han traido por resultado el que nuestro primer buque titulado Booker T. Washington, de nuestra nueva corporación naviera la Cruz Negra, haya zarpado felizmente de este puerto, apesar de la tremenda oposición que sostuvicramos para llevar a vias de hecho tan gloriosa tarea.
Nuestra raza ha triunfado apesar del gran número de personas, quienes pensaron el que nos era imposible hacer efectiva la promesa que habíamos ofrecido al público, de establecer a la raza en una base de poder maritimo comercial. La adquisición del Booker T. Washington no completa la labor en que tenemos empñadas todas nuestra energías en esta dirección. Demos por sentado que este sea un principio modesto y de pequeño efecto; dada las circunstancias que han rodeado nuestra árdua labor; pero circumuestra las posibilidades, arrestos que tiene la raza en almacen hacia una gran prueba su habilidad y cooperación, para llevar a cabo tan sublime esfuerzo.
Dijo que ello constituye una obligación legal de Cuba a los Estados Unidos. El congreso tomó nota oficial de esa deuda cuando en 1907 el presidente fue autorizado por resolución para recibir pagos de deuda de parte de la república de Cuba. Tiene informes de que el secretario del tesoro Mellon, en respuesta a investigaciones recientes, declaró que Cuba no habia dado pagos de ninguna naturalez hacia la liquidación de esa deuda. Anadio que si los hechos que acaban de emñarse, son exactos. Cuba no solignora su vieja deuda sino que también insiste en que debe entregarse la isla de Pinos, el noyenta por ciento de la cual es propiedad de los colonizadores norteamericanos.
No estamos satisfechos el haber lanzado sobre la rugosa superficie del ocano, el buque que a estas horas surca el proceloso azul hacía los trópicos, con una nutrida representación de nuestra raza y un cargo miscelanio, como iniciación de lo que podamos hacer en este orden, determinando un paralelo civico comercial industrial con aquellos elementos caucásicos, quienes por su esfuerzo, su audacia, su inteligencia y sus cuantios medios de competencia, le han hecho adquirir la supremacia que hoy dia hay que concederle en la amplia esfera del negocio en el mundo civilizado.
No estamos satisfechos, hemos dicho, hasta que no redoblemos nuestras energias y esfuerzos en toda dirección para financiar la nueva corporación naviera la Cruz Negra, de manera que ésta esté en condiciones propiciadas para conducir eficientemente sus negocios, dentro del radio marítimo en que se ha establecido. Orge la finanza para comprar el material necesario durante las travesias periódicas de la escala de nuestra primera embarcación, así no dependa solamente de los intriguingles de mercado de conpetición, viéndose nuestra corporación en condiciones tales con las distintas unidades de la raza, dentro y fuera del radio de nuestra acción y las evoluciones se resuelvan en un contacto mas cercano obteniendo mayores beneficios, sin atender a ese intrincado proceso que tanto dificulta la realización de intimidades comerciales, industriales y fábiles entre uno y otro elemento de las Tres Americas.
Los colonizadores norteamericanos alli dicen que en los veinte años desde que el general Wood arrío el pabellón norteamericano, sin autoridad, a los militares cubanos, el gobierno de Cuba no ha hecho el malabsolutamente para el desarrollo de la isla. El senador por Nueva York, Royal S. Copeland, que como se sabe es uno de los más decididos partirarios de que se prive a Culg de la Isla de Dinos encantura ahora su posición adversa al tratamiento muy fortalecida.
Restricción rigurosa de una producción
De la contencia interna del opio, en Ginebra han nacido thrrenencias que dan motivo para dulat de la buena te de algunas de las naciones representadas alt. Si el mercio del opio ha de ser controado y reducido, si se han de adoptar mueras restricciones por convenio general con el fin de reprimir el uso de drogas narcóticas, no ha de ser creando dificultades acerca de los procedimientos que ahora se emplean en el Lejano Oriente. El sistema de monopolios de gobierno en la manipulación interior y regulación de la exportación, ha sido completenemente puesto a prueba. Sus mejores defensores son los que estan en favor de hacer lo menos que sea posible, y de hacerlo en el más lejano porvenir posible.
Al fin la única cura,comfortadora de la situación existente, el unic remedio que promete ser eficaz, es el plan, presentado por la delegación de los Estados Unidos en Ginebra. Esos delegados han asumido su actitud resuelventa a favor de la restricción rigurosa de la producción del opio, que no tenga por fin las necesidades médicas mundiales. La India, donde el gobierno ejercita una estrecha supervision de todas las etapas de la producción; no esta preparada para un tan rápido paso hacia adelante. China, después de un excelente principio aboliendo el cultivo de las amapolas productoras del opio, en los últimos años ha retrocedido debido al relajamiento y corrupcion de la autoridad, del gobierno. La mayoría de las colonias europeas del Lejano Oriente sancionan el comercio del opio bajo control del gobierno por razones de expedencia al lucro.
Los Estados Unidos no tienen tal problema del opio. No producen el opio bruto. Su población no ha sido, por tradición y practica, desde hace generaciones, como la India, consumidora del opio, con cuyas contumbres establecidas podria causar perturbaciones una intervención repentina. Al propio tiempo los Estados Unidos, a pesar de toda su política radical, no aparecen, como limpios de calpia. Pólogo, proposo
nieudo la imposición de las reformas en otras partes, han permitido el transporte y exportación de las dragas narcóticas a países a los que ahora insisten que sus propios gobiernos priven de todos los suministros menos los necesarios para finermedicos.
Si accidentalmente, por convenio internacional, la producción del opio donde de hecho se cria pudiera ser reducida, a un limite mínimo; si mediante una honrada cooperación, pudiera reducirse progresivamente la existencia hasta equiparla con las necesidades conocidas del consumo médico, el plan americano habría sido justificado. El mundo, ante los formidables obstáculos presentados en Ginebra, está todavía muy lejos de su objetivo.
Extendiendo la prohibición
La ley Volstead y la décima octava cumienda constitucional que le diba cabida, estan produciendo nuevas automalias e irregularidades. Esta vez la perturbacion no tiene por teatro el territorio de la Union. Al parecer la prohibicion es bastante absurda para extender la esfera de acción de sus conflictos hasta más alde de los limites del país. Las Filipinas son ahora el teatro de las controversias y choques prohibicionistas.
Pero contra lo que se creería, y parece legíneo, el archipielago de Magallanes, más bien que perder derechos y libertades por la anomala reforma, como ha acontecido en los Estados Unidos han encontrado, inexperadamente, un campeón importante de su libertad.
Este no es otro que al gobierno general Wood. Cuando el departamento de Justicia y el departamento de Estado de Washington deciden que la ley Volstead se aplica también el territorio de las Pilipinas, sobre las que los Estados Unidos gestionan y ciercen dominio y control como poder solicitó, el general aparce de darando que al archipielago no le acampa la profilización. Y por ende que la soberanía americana tiene allí una limitación categorica y considerable.
Nadie pudiera esperar declaración semejante del general Wood, que la manifestado que el pueblo filipino no esta apta para la independencia y el abandono del paternal tutorado de los Estados Unidos. Ahora, sin embargo, ante su propia actitud, alberra y franquece opuesta a la prohibición alcoholica, cabra que los políticos en Manila se precunten que aptitud tienen los Estados Thidos para discarles leyes, cuando el congreso de Washington las aprueba tales que el propio gobernador general de los Filipinos, en un recurso imponente para evitar su aplicación, de la mano no pueden regir en aquel teorico.

Al mismo tiempo, la irracional orientación de la ley y la fantasía manera con que se observará allí, si se va a seguir el mismo lo que en los Estados Unidos, servirá para pregonar aín entre los más adictos a los americanos que los más entonados ataques que el general Wood dirija a los políticos maniles pueden, seguilamente, devolverse contra políticos compatriolos del gobierno, con actinación dentro y fuera del territorio de la Union.
Un coronel culpable
El coronel Charles R. Forbes, ex-director de la oficina de veteranos de los Estados Unidos, fue convicto de conspiración para defraular al gobierno en relación con la construcción de hospitales para soldados. John W. Thompson, de St. Louis, acusado junto con Forbes, fue también declarado culpable.
El fue el contratista de quien el gobierno dice ayudo a preparar el llevar a cabo la conspiración por la cual. Forbes, Thompson, Elias H. Mortimer, los principales testigos del gobierno, James W. Blanck y Charles F. Cramer deban dividirse los provechos en la erección de hospitales para soldados inutilizados por un valor de diez y siez millones. Mortimer confesó y fue el principal testigo de la acusación. Ni Forbes ni Thompson declararon conio testigos.

in staging the expositions to be held this spring in Chicago, New York City, Philadelphia and Buffalo.
The recommendations in this Code of Ethics will be brought before the attention of at least a half million people who will visit these annual expositions, as are steps being taken to put the Code so it will be available to the public throughout the country.
Never before in the history of business have great national interests gathered around a table and put on paper expert opinion of how an important phase of our national life could be improved. Yet such organizations as the American Society of Civil Engineers, The American Institute of Architects, The Society for Electrical Development, The American Place Brick Association, The Master Plumbers' Association, The Warm Air and Ventilating Association, The National Electric Light Association, The Associated Tile Manufacturers, The Portland Cement Association, The United States League of Local Building and Loan Associations, The American Fuel Oil Burn Manufacturers' Association, The National Lumber Manufacturers' Association, The Wall Paper Manufacturers' Association, The National Retail Lumber Dealer's Association, The National Wholesale Lumber Dealers' Association, The American Gas Association, The Associated Metal Lath Manufacturers, The American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and many others, have joined hands to teach the public how to become home owners instead of rent payments, and then how to build better homes and so protect their investments.
In this connection, officials of these trade organizations state that a wide dissemination of the 'principles included in this code will in time banish unsecrepid contractors', 'building supply dealers, and firms engaged in selling shoddy and filmy material. In addition, it is also stated, that this will not only benefit the general public by giving them better homes, but be of assistance to the reputable firm engaged in selling building materials, plumbing equipment, heating and ventilating systems and other products who are often blamed for faulty construction, and cheap substitutions. In other words, in the opinion of the experts engaged in the preparation of

This unique paper, the public is often apt to blame the exterior atuco used when it cracks or the wall paper when it tears, though faulty construction and defective frame work may be entirely responsible. Similarly, the uninformed are apt to hold guilty the contractor of a well built house if a poor heating plant makes trouble for the owner. The education of the public on correct methods and the use of good materials will, therefore, also protect reliable contractors and reliable firms.
Following are some of the "high points" of the code that have caused widespread comment among the allied trades:
1. The exposition cannot recommend the purchase of homes built for speculation unless such homes have been built from properly executed plans, and honestly constructed under the advice of competent authority.
2. The exposition, opposes the exploitation of the public through the selling of filmsight built, improperly planned structures, or materials and equipment which do not comply with recognized standard specifications of manufacture.
3. In standing for honest construction the exposition requires the possibilities of substitution of shortly for good materials; that poor workmanship will weaken a house, increase the upkeep and reduce its useful life to a very few years; that failure to properly insulate the house will greatly add to the fuel consumption . . . that the home builder or home buyer should learn the fundamental principles of good construction methods in order that he may not be misled into building or buying a badly planned, poorly constructed home.
4. The exposition does not approve exhibits of any real estate firm or corporation unless it is in position to offer with the purchase of the let a definite proposition for the financing of the home.
5. The exposition believes that the laying out of subdivisions or building development sites should be in keeping with a harmonious plan of city or suburban community development along scientific city planning lines, that proper restrictions, be provided, including zoning laws to prevent the damage of property due to the encroachment of factory and business sections or residential property.
6. The exposition believes that the prospective purchaser of a home or a homeite is entitled to what is generally known as the direct investment due to the gradual development of the community after the purchase has been made, and that the sale prices of all property, at all times, should be based on its value at the time of the purchase.
2. The exposition in recognizing the co-operatively owned apartment as a home, realizes that they are many so-called co-operative or tenant ownership plans advanced, many of which have not as yet been given the test of time, and is, therefore, for the present in a position to recommend but one form of co-operative ownership, generally referred to as the 100 per cent tenant ownership plan and organized on the standardized banks approved by the National Association of Real Estate Boards.
8. The exposition believes that home savings accounts should be encouraged by trust companies, savings banks and savings and building loan associations, and that the funds established through such savings accounts should be used exclusively for the financing of homes and that due recognition should be given good construction by granting higher loans.
9. The exposition does not approve exhibits of any building materials unless there is assurance that the manufacturer can finance ample production to supply the demand. nor does it approve exhibits staged for the purpose of financing or promoting stock sales.
10. The exposition, while recommending the use of standard building materials, encourages the production and use of other suitable materials, when such materials have, through tests under proper engineering supervision, proven of substantial value.
11. The exposition recommends that home builders do not attempt to economize in the construction of their homes by selecting poor equipment because it is cheap, and that true economy is in careful planning and then buying good material as cheaply as possible and seeing to it that they are properly installed.
12. The exposition has adopted a rule that no products will be accepted for exhibition unless the manufacturer compiles with such standard specifications as are adopted by their respective national associations or that the product has been approved and recommended by the exhibit committee under whose classification it belongs.
18. The exposition belleaves that the love of home is largely begotten and maintained by using good taste in the decoration of the rooms, choice of furnishings and proper lighting.
14. The exposition believes that an appropriate landscape development, such as involves no extraordinary expense, either in initial outlay or in upkeep, is a very real insurance against deterioration of the home property.
In a paragraph covering the general supervision of the expositions in all four cities, the code states that the committees of administration are unanimously opposed to irrelevant exhibition, interpretation, amusement

Would Take in All Races and Colors and Christian and Mohammedan—Says Zionists Only a Small Party of the Jewish People—Many Black Jews
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21, 1769, of Prince Habib Lottafallah, minister of the King of Arabia at Rome, he left Washington to visit Pittsburgh and the other American cities after a several days' stay in the capital.
The prince is one of those most interested in establishing a Pan-Semitic kingdom in the Near East. His visit to the United States, however, is not in an official capacity, he emphasized to Universal Society while here.
During his stay in Washington Prince Lottafallah met on a private soil basis, most of those prominent national official circles. He refrained from calling at the White House, lost the strictly unofficial nature of his visit be misconstrued.
The project of establishing a Scottish kingdom, the prince sank is a new movement, but is the only method of establishing lasting peace in the Near East. The kingdom would unite the Semitic faces, whether of Christian, Jewish or Mohammedan Earth.
Zionism, be pronounced a purely political movement, which never could be a success, deferring to Lord Talfour's support of the movement, be said:
"Lord Talfour is in error in not taking into consideration the question of race, which now plays the most important part in New Jerusalem affairs. Talfour had declared in favor of mitigating the powers of the Semitic race, then there would have been general peace throughout the Near East. The Zionists are only a small party of the Jewish people, and the Jews are just a part of the Semitic race. The Semitic race is composed of Christians, Mohammedans and Jews."
Prince Leothabh, tall and great speaking poet, French and slightly accented Oxford English, has made the appearance of a European diplomat than of a native of the Near East. His ancestors, Christianus for the first two hundred years, always have played an important part in the affairs of Arabia, as car heir to the time of Haroon Al Husseid, of Arabian Nights fame.
The great kingdom he proposed would have its political center at Lagdad, its geographical and historical center, Jerusalem, for Christians and

Jews, and Mecca, for the followers of Mohammed, would be the religious nuclei of the country. Continuing his discussion, he said:
"The general peace of the Near East—a question dating back to the time of the Crusades—must be determined logically and with sympathy for the feelings of the inhabitants of the countries affected.
"A new organization is being formed, for the purpose of organizing the Near East with a constitutional policy. The open door of course would be maintained in view of the geographical and religious situation of the country, which is of interest to the entire world, through religious or racial ties.
"Organization of the country on this basis will be the only way of securing a state of peace for the world, the Near East again becoming a friendly link between the Orient and the Occident."
EDUCATIONAL CHARACTER OF THE POPULAR MOVIE
EDUCATIONAL CHARACTER OF THE POPULAR MOVIE
From the Nashville Clarion
Probably no other secular institution plays so important a part for better or worse in our lives as the motion picture. To use the familiar allot, the movie, as an institution, can make us or break us. Monsters have said enough to fill volumes about its evils or supposed evils. Educators have pointed it, and not only have pointed out, its virtues, but actually have adopted it in schools of learning. The movie has given employment to many thousands of people; it has become the fourth largest industry in the United States from the standpoint of capital invested. It has amused and attracted millions of people, and paid millions of dollars to high salaried professionals to make others laugh and weep. It has stirred the fires of ambition among thousands who have longed for the magic spell of getting themselves starved on its silver sheet, or to write the colorful plots to which it owes its life and continuance. It has created an entirely new school of thought, of action, of literature. But what has it done for the average man of the street, store, shop or office; for the woman of the household; and for the boy and girl of the school? What else, social and personal benefits can be credited to the flickering film?
To answer but only in the most general terms—it has been a great leavening in the melting pot of com-

Are You Hungry to Enjoy The Blessings of Youth Again? German Scientist Perfects Wonderful Discovery for Restoring the Power and Vitality of Youth.
Every man or woman who has grown old "moons" may be rejuvenated again enjoy the day's light and the day's sunshine, the days of youth. An elegantly successful German scientist, after years of research has discoveredulating and, developing the mysterious ENDOCRIN system, and developing the mysterious ENDOCRIN vitalization of the human body. The Pediatric Laboratory was so enthused over the remarkable work that he arranged to make this treatment easily available to all who realize that they are "too old" for treatment. The pediatric laboratory juvenile clitoris. This treatment, because of its quick, directs, selective action is called GLANOLEM. This treatment can be easily taken by anyone. Thousands who have tried GLANOLEM have been within two or three days, and are announced to feel the wine and strength of youth returning to them. Due to the method of combining the GLAND and

Here the child gets his drama—that, but faultless; his shells—exhilarating, but safe. Two films ever were exactly alike. That makes them himat-like. Leaving out all moral questions, perhaps the worst that can be said of the movie is the utter passivity it not only affords but relentlessly demands. In this mechanical age we need more exercise and physical recreation than we get in our daily work; that we need action with wholesome fun in it. Not the action we pay others to perform, but that we do ourselves. And this is what, from a recursive standpoint, the movie cannot supply. It even stifles mental activity, for it is all too easy to let the film drift
