GREAT LEADER SUFFERING FROM A COLD BUT OTHERWISE WELL AS HE IS LOCKED AWAY FROM THE RACE AT ATLANTA
The Hon. Marcus Garvey is suffering from a cold, according to the latest information received from Atlanta, Ga., but otherwise well and enduring with splendid fortitude the suffering that has come to him in the course of his presentation of the Negro's case to the world and his valiant efforts to ameliorate the condition of the the race.
He sends greetings to the Negroes of the world and appreciates more than words can tell the unflinching loyalty to him which they have displayed in this his hour of trial.
In the last issue of The Negro World an installment of a recent article from his pen was published. The remainder of this article appears below and is entitled to careful thought by members of the race throughout the world:
Solving the Problems of the Human Family
(Conclusion)
Realizing all that has been written is the reason why the world's greatest reformers have striven to make a human race with love and sympathies, not having the one group, whether white or black, hating the other, but living in peace, good-will and brotherhood, without endangering the rights of either. It is such a reformation that will save the world; not the building of battleships, guns, aeroplanes or the invention of gas, but a reasonable coming together of the human groups that will rescue us from our human doom.
Forget Race Selfishness
If the great statesmen and religious leaders of the world would only forget the selfishness of their own races, and call their conferences and give out their edicts, not from the Anglo-Saxon, Teutonic, Celtic or Anglo-American point of view, but from the view of all humanity considered, then we would indeed come face to face with a new world evolving a new civilization.
Friends, white, cannot prosper to the disadvantage of black; yellow cannot prosper to the disadvantage of brown, for in so doing we but pile up confusion and remorse for our children. This is history; it tells the tales of the past; it will of the future; then why not make the future right?
Few the reformers are who struggle for such an ideal. Here and there a white man and a woman, a yellow, brown, or black man, while the great story of selfish pleasure sockers and their slaves
NO RACE, NO GROUP, HE SAYS, CAN PROSPER INDEFINITELY AT THE EXPENSE OF OTHERS
THE FEW WHO CRY OUT FOR JUSTICE TO ALL HUMANITY WILL EVEN TUALLY BE HEARD
NEGROES WILL HAVE A NATIONAL HOME LAND WITH PRIVILEGES AND OPPOR TUNITIES LIKE OTHER PEOPLES
march on to their doom. Gandhi in prison, a George V in his castle, a Congo native massacred; an Albert of Belgium drinking his wine: a Senegalese Negro kicked on the plantation of his master; a Poincare driving in his landau in the Champs Elysses; a Negro lynched in Georgia; a Wilson, Harding, or Coolidge talking about a world court or league; a Chinaman shot down at Kia Chow and the Emperor of Japan drinking tea in his palace at Tokio; a Jew murdered on the borders of Eastern Europe; and his Holiness the Pope seeing no further than the Vatican, will not save the human race; but that lonely man or woman of whatsoever race who cries out for justice to all humanity, including Europe with its whites, Asia with its browns and yellows, Africa with its blacks, and America and the rest of the world with their mixed populations, will, even though there be persecution and injustice done to him, bring succor and aid, late though it be, to the rest of us mortals that we may see everlasting life.
Working for the True Solution
There is a fraternity of humanitarianism, unknown though it be, that is working for a true solution of our human problems. Wilberforce, Clarkston, Buxton, Lovejoy, John Brown, white though they were, had the vision of the future of men. They worked for the freedom of black humanity; therefore, in the midst of our sorrow, and in the racial thought of revenge, come up the spirits of such great humanitarians that silence the tongue of evil. As in the white race, so among the blacks, our beautiful spirits stand out—for were not there a Douglass, a Washington, and even the typical "Uncle Tom"? We hope that the humanitarians of today of all races will continue to work in furtherance of
that ideal—justice, liberty, freedom and true human independence, knowing thereby no color or no race.
National Homeland for Negroes
The Negro of the world, and America in particular, needs a national homeland with opportunities and privileges like all other peoples. If we work and fight for this, why should others jeer and laugh at us? Why should they say that we are "ignorant" and "benighted"? Was it ignorance to free Britain from the grasp of the invader? Was it ignorance to free America from the heel of the oppressor? Was it ignorance to liberate France from the yoke of the tyrant? Surely not. Then why is it ignorant for Negroes to work for the restoration of their country Africa?
Broad and liberal minded white men, although surrounded by the selfishness of a material environment, will not condemn and persecute the work of even black reform, but for justice's sake give unto each and every one his due.
MARCUS GARVEY.
We are here making an appeal to the members for immediate support to the Parent Body. If the organization is to be held intact and the work go on to a glorious fulfillment the Parent Body must receive the full support of every division and chapter.
We call upon you to rally now more than ever to the preservation of your organization. You can help, first, by seeing to it that you are financial by paying not only your monthly dues but your yearly assessment tax; second, by seeing to it that your division or chapter is financial with the Parent Body. As each member must know, even though you pay your monthly dues, you are still unfinancial if you fail to pay your yearly assessment tax. Your division is also unfinancial if it fails to collect this tax from the membership and forward same to the Parent Body.
The Universal Negro Improvement Association expects every man, woman and child to do his or her duty.

THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION
POLLOWERS OF THE ORGANIZATION SET APART FIRST SUNDAY, OF EACH MONTH IN COMMEMORATION OF GARVEY'S SERVICE TO THE RACE AS CHAMPION OF NEGRO FREEDOM AND AFRICAN REDEMPTION—FIVE THOUSAND PEOPLE ATTEND PATRIOTIC EXERCISES IN LIBERTY HALL AND PAY WONDERFUL TRIBUTE TO THEIR IMPRISONED LEADER
Garvey Honored as Martyr to a Worthy and Righteous Cause—His Memory Is Cherished by Millions of Black Folks Who Look for Deliverance to the Program of the U. N. I. A.—Garvey, Though in Prison, Is Still Their Acknowledged Leader
VAST AUDIENCE UNANIMOUSLY. ENDORSE TELEGRAM TO PRESIDENT OF UNITED STATES. REQUESTING CLEMENCY FOR. GARVEY—ELOQUENT EULOGIES ARE DELIVERED BY BISHOP McGUIRE, DR. RAWLINS AND HON. WILLIAM SHERRILL
LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sundy Night, March 1.—Throughout all the divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, today was observed as "Garvey Day," marking the inauguration of a series of "Garvey Days," which will be set apart on the first Sunday of every month during the imprisonment of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, in commemoration of the services which he has rendered the race as the pioneer of the cause of Negro freedom and African redemption, and as a token of the loyalty of the followers of organization. The New York local, which in everything sets the example for the other divisions, celebrated the day with exercises befitting the occasion, and tonight five thousand people assembled and paid tribute to the man whom they regard as a martyr to the cause which he has championed, by participating with alacrity in the patriotic program that was rendered, consisting of speeches in praise of Marcus Garvey and songs and recitations composed in his honor and dedicated to his memory.
The speakers tonight were Dr. E. Elliott Rawlins, His Grace Archbishop Geo. Alexander McGuire, Primate of the African Orthodox Church, and Hon. William Sherrill, each of whom delivered an eloquent eulogy on the noble qualities and indomitable leadership of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and which the audience received with round after round of vociferous applause.
Before the speeches commenced, Hon. G. A. Weston, Vice-President of the New York Local, moved that a telegram be forwarded to the President of the United States, requesting that clementy be extended to Hon. Marcus Garvey. The telegram was as follows:
"To the President of the United States, Hon. Calvin Coolidge, White House, Washington, D. C.—Thousands of Negroes in this city assembled in mass meeting here today greet you and pray that you give consideration to the appeal of millions of our race for clementy for our leader, Marcus Garvey." The motion was seconded by Hon. P. L. Burrows, Assistant Secretary-General and was unanimously adopted by the vast audience with acclamation.
Following are the speeches:
BISHOP McGUIRE'S SPEECH
His Grace, Arbishop Alexander McGuire spoke as follows: We come tonight to honor Cae ar and not to mourn him. The first question that I want to answer at the time is: Why have a Carvery day?
Why Have a Garvey Day?
For some of us there is no necessity for a "Garvey day" for every day with us (Garvey Day, (A plause). As we arise in the morning and Invite Delly to give us this day our daily bread, and ere we retire at night and say "Forgive me Lord for Thy dear Son. The ills which this day have done," we also hear in our petitions a thought of our absent president, Marcus Garvey. But less there be that are inclined to forget him, it is meet and right that the high officials of this organization set apart a monthly Garvey day. There are some people who,

I was desperately working and spitting and crying, and I was trying to work out of the serious pains and all nature, but I can also appreciate that they are taking the remarkable new
If one is absent from them, have not learned to forget. To be absent is to be forgotten, or as the old adage has it "out of sight, out of mind." And as we do not want it to be said anywhere that there is any member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who has forgotten Marcus Garvey, it has been decided upon that the first Sunday of every month shall be observed in remembrance of our peerless leader; and it to be a day of universal remembrance so far as this organization is concerned.
Extended All Over Negrodom
The Universal Negro Improvement Association has extended its vast ramifications all over Nexrodom, and it is our duty that on one day of each month our thoughts shall be as one, our memories shall be as one, that we are all determined when that day comes every month to make it our motto "all for one because that one is for all of us." You will remember that after the Man of Galilee had been taken away from his disciples, they met and decided that they would have a Lord's Day; and they came to the conclusion that the first day in every week would be observed as their Lord's Day, the day on which he became victorious over death and Hades; and ever since the time of those Apostles until this twentieth century, mankind everywhere have reserved the first day of every week in memory of their Lord, "We, too, in honor of our leader, have decided that though every day may be for us a Garvey Day, yet we also, following the illustrious example of those Apostles, shall set apart one day not in every week, but one day in each month—the first Sunday thereof—and to call it, the day of remembrance.
A Memorable Day
February 8, 1925, was a day on which Negro history was made. You and I were assembled on the evening of this day in this cradle of liberty, and our thoughts carried us down to Atlanta. We were in sympathy with our leader; to us it was a day of sorrow; but since that, having adjusted the circumstances—having been able to draw because in our calmer moments, we have decided that it was not a day of humiliation for Carver, but a day of victory. February 8, 1925, at the hour of 5:20 he walked into the Federal Penitentiary at Atlanta Georgia, as a prisoner. His inmates thought that he deserved both some of the jail and for sure their thirst that would be the end of Carver and the beginning of the end of his previous organization. They then carried without their back. Carver and the world will ever con-
absement shall be noted in the annals of the Negro race as the day of his exaltation. Let this day, February 8, 1855, be celebrated annually, because it is a parallel to another evenful day. On that which men have since called Good Friday, the Nazarez went up Mount Calvary. His enemies had been victorious in the courts of Pontius Pilate: the sentence went forth that he should suffer crucifixion with male-factors, and as the custom was, He carried His cross up Mount Calvary assisted by Simon the Cappadian, a son of Hum, and when he expired upon Calvary excalmed "It is finished." His victory was accomplished.
And so fellowmen of the Negro race, on that day of that year's scandal humiliation when he walked in and exchanged his civilian clothing for those of a prison, and his enemies chuckled with delight just as a few days before a young man of our race telegraphed to the assistant district attorney and said to him "All Negroes admire you, for you have called the tiger at last"—just an Christ's enemies glotted over Him, so there were many on February 8 and the days previous who glouted over him whom they considered their victim.
Feb. 8 a Great Day in Negro History
While we shall celebrate February 8, 1925, as the victory day of Garvey, we shall also celebrate every first Sunday in the month in his honor. Good Friday has become, in the annuals of human history, the greatest day in the world, and in Negro history I predict that February 8, 1925, will be regarded as one of the greatest, days in Negro history—Garvey's "Sunday, and every month "our leader's day." America has all sorts of days; there is Memorial Day, Washington's Day, Lincoln's Day, Frederick Douglass Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving Day, Mother's Day, Fathers' Day, and all sorts of days, and because we are citizens by birth or naturalization or residents of this hospitable country, we also join with zest and enthusiasm whenever the population of this great country celebrates one of the days of its memorials; but we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have one day which is the day above all others; and February 8, 1925, and each successive Sunday of every successive month, of every successive year, until he comes home again to us, we shall celebrate the day of Marcus Garvey. I have answered the first question—why have a Garvey day?
Why This Haste?
Let me answer the second—Why this haste then? Why this haste in observing a Garvey Day? Other people wait until their heroes are dead before they set apart a day in memory of them. Christopher Columbus, the explorer of the Atlantic—for I deny that he was the discoverer of lands that were populated by every kind of tribe of Indian, not only on the mainland, but in the islands of the sea, because there were Caribbean Indians. It took, I say, the white man, 400 years before they set apart a Columbus Day in memory of this great explorer. So also the Englishman even as there are friends in America that have been just as lax, because William Shakespeare had to wait in his grave fully 300 years before his fellow-Britishers kept his birthday. Now, we do not propose for Marcus Garvey to die and have to wait in his grave 400 years like Christopher Columbus. We do not propose that he shall have to wait after his demise for any 300 years. We set aside Marcus Garvey Day, for whether he lived or whether he died, he lives or dies for the Negro race. And whether he lived or whether he died his work will go marching on.
Garvey Cannot Die
To us Garvey cannot die. To us already he is a memorial. His flesh will some day go the way of all flesh, but that spirit within his noble body—that noble black body—will migrate. Or ordinarily, I do not believe in transmigration as men ordinarily do. They believe that, when a man dies his spirit enters into some animal and lives on in that inferior house; but I do believe that the spirit of Marcus Garvey will migrate into the bodies of the fellow-men whom he leaves behind; the spirit will divide itself into infestional and innumerable parts and enter into the bodies of the rising generation. The mighty oak standing in its lofty heights drops its little acorns upon the ground beneath the thick foliage, or perchance the storm comes and drives them to some remote distance, but in due time whether beneath the branches of that mighty oak or wheresover the winds have blown them, those acorns germinate beneath the soil and then above, aground, they appear, and they grow, and at last where there was a lonely oak, there is a great forest of oaks.
And so the spirit of Marcus Gervary sets dividing itself, will enter into these little boys and girls. Already there are hundreds and thousands of little Gervaries, and the last one I heard about came from a West Indian island. A minister of the Anglican Church sent me a paper two or three days ago with a letter. He said, "Read the paper first on page no.2 and then; born to Rev. and Mrs. He and so—I shall not call their names—o can baptised by his father so and such a church with the name Marcus Gervary McGhull." (Anglican). I remember it to share you that not only in New York—far on the platform when I was christening general nearly every Sunday in June.

Garvey So and So I was baptizing. I mention it, my friends, to show not only here in New York but in the islands and on the continent or motherland Africa, they are inspiring the infants now to name them, so that they shall like white men carrying the name of Washington, carrying the name of Lincoln, carrying the name of Roosevelt, deem it an honor to be named after such a man. The little Garveys are already here.
At present however, his chair is vacant. When I made a suggestion which was unanimously endorsed by you and by your executive officers, to leave his chair vacant with his robes of presidential office hanging thereon. I meant it as a symbol of the fact that though he be absent from us he shall be president indeed until he returns.
Nobody Can Fill Garvey's Chair
Who does not miss him. It is idle for us to deceive ourselves and say that we do not miss Marcus Garvey at Liberty Hall on Sunday nights. I missed him as I came in here; missed him as the program proceeded: missed his inspiring message; misled his magnetic personality; missed his persuasive eloquence. They have called him the silver tongued orator, but I think that is an injustice to him, for he has more than a silver tongue. In the good early days of the church there was one of the greatest fathers and preachers whom they called St. John Chrysoston. Chrysoston is Greek word made up of two other Greek words meaning "golden tongue." This man known to Jesus and St. Paul was the greatest prescher the church eger saw, and so the Greeks named him "golden tongue" or Chrysoston. But I admit because I believe it, Marcus Garvey, has more than a silver tongue; he has more than a golden tongue; he is the peerless diamond tongued orator of the Negro face. (Apoplexuse). In this particular as well as in his official responsibility there is none yet in sight to fill the seat of Marcus Garvey.
A few years ago there was a story going around Washington, D.C. the

capital of this nation. It seems that some newspaper started offering prizes on this question: who is the most polite and courteous man in the city of Washington? All sorts of answers were sent in in the hope of winning the prize, some of them ridiculous and some of them ingenuous; but the prize went to a wag who said "The Chief Justice of the United States, William H. Taft, ex-president, is in my estimation the most polite and courteous man in this great city; my reason" he said, "is this: that whenever he and I are on a public conveyance and it is crowded I get up and give my seat to a lady, but when ex-President Taft gets up he gives his seat to three ladies." (Laughter.) That is a comment on the ponderous avoidupolls of the ex-President of the United States. And so, I want to figuratively speaking, it would take three men to try to fill the place of Marcus Garvey, and he seemed to have known it because he appointed three to try to fill his seat, and they are going to have a mighty hard time trying to fill his seat. It will take three time three to fill his seat. None can wear his armor, and if any of us aspire to the armor

Garvey Is Victorious and Npt- Humil-
The message I am going to broadcast tonight from Liberty Hall is not the message that we broadcast on February 8. That message was "Carry On." Tonight from station LINY (Liberty Hall, New York) the message that we broadcast is this: "Garvey is victorious and not humiliated." The picture of Marcus Garvey shackled to a deputy marshal of the United States is as picture: "that every Negro' should own and pass down as an helooom to his descendants to the nth generation. I would that I were a rich man, for I would have that picture of him painted lifesize to be displayed here at least unfil his return, and beneath that picture I would have inscribed "Victorious but not humiliated."

HON. WM. SHERRILL'S SPEECH
Hon. WM. L. Sherrill spoke and follows: Eight fleeting years have passed into eternity since Marcus Garvey landed in New York city, New York. He came not amidst the blast of trumpet or the beat of drums; but quietly and ordinarily as thousands of little black men have come year after year to these United States from other parts of the world. Yet he differed from others in that he held within him a great ideal, a wonderful dream, a gigantic program destined to advance and promote the interests of his race. He came not to disturb the tranquility of the American Negro nor to antagonize those we then looked to as our leaders; but being a man with a message God had given him, and with a vision, his only ambition was to tell it to his people. By whom it was told mattered little to Garvey.
Garvey's First Move
His first move was to get in touch with the leaders of the Negro race in this part of the country and put before them his program. Those of us who are a quainted will the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association remember full well how Garvey visited Tuskegee, visited Dubois, visited other Negro leaders of this country, putting before them his plan of Negro proclamation and African freedom. These Negroes to whom Garvey brought his plan of freedom and independence for the black man in Africa, treated it lightly and assured Marcus Garvey that the Negro in America was in no mood nor did he relish any special love for Africa and things African. They assured him that the black man was willing and contented to continue on giving his little bit to the missionaries to do their religious work, but as for forming a great organization for the creation of a consciousness in the black man for. African freedom and African redemption, the time was not ripe in this country.
Organized the U. N. I. A.
Nevertheless Marcus Garvey, being a man of strong determination and will set about to organize the great Universal Negro Improvement Association. After a few years of struggle, a few years of labor, a few years of sacrifice, the great Universal Negro Improvement Association was organized. Almost simultaneously with the organization of the Universal Negro Improvement Association there started in this country a movement fostered by jealous and short-sighted Negroes to get rid of one father to destroy the power and leadership of Marcus Garvey. In their effort to destroy this leadership they stared at once trying to laugh Garvey off the scent by calling him and the methods of his organization he used clown and clownish. Marcus Garvey measured up to the situation, took the abuse and scorn without even hardly a turn of the head, and continued on with the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association until he established here in New York the headquarters of the greatest Negro movement in the world.
Opposition Created by Jonlouay
The journey to three Negroes urged them to another skin and program of destruction and his organization. Almost overnight they board of this Marlouay Curry coaching delegation to all parts of the world. They board of this Marlouay Curry buying and operating stanchions upon the high road; they board the name of this Marlouay Curry grounded far and wide end, realizing that if the Univest Negro Improvement Association succeeded it would
And hence tonight Liberty Hall is minus Marcus Garvey because the courts tell us that he has committed crime. Regardless of this, we, the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the followers and sympathizers of Marcus Garvey, do not believe that Marcus Garvey is guilty of any crime or criminal intent, but, being law-abiding citizen we have willingly submitted to the law and its course. Hence because Negroes are wicked and vile, jealous and prejudiced, shorthighted and ignorant, because white men both hate and fear the Negro, there is imprisoned in Atlanta one of the race's most illustrious sons.
The imprisonment of Marcus Garvey affects not only the Universal Negro Improvement Association but the race as a whole. It sets a precedent for the falling upon some filmmaker legal protocol of Negro leaders who agitate too strongly for the race. It takes from the race one of the most far-sighted and courageous leaders this western world has yet produced. His work is benefiting not only his followers in the Universal Negro Improvement Association but the entire race is advancing in racial co-operation and self-love and racial consciousness and solidarity because Garvey lives. It is no exaggera-

Getting Garvay on the Wrong Side of Law
Not being able to destroy the confidence of the Negro in Garvey and his leadership, they set about using tactics which are as old as civilization itself, namely (as Kelly Miller said in his article last week), to get Marcus Garvey on the wrong side of the law in this they succeeded, for it has always been easy to get a great leader or a great reformer on the wrong side of the law. When McSwiney was proving a terror to the English, it was easy to direct McSwiney on the wrong side of the law and imprison him. When Gandhi was proving more than a match for the English in India, it was easy to get Gandhi on the wrong side of the law and imprison him. When Jesus Christ was in this world working and talking with men, it was easy for the Jews to agree out that he had broken the law and to crucify him.
Fell a Victim to the Courts

LET'S PUT IT OVER
"WHAT MORE CAN WE DO?"
IT has been true in all ages, as Lord Byron expressed it in "The Prisoner of Chillon," that "Stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage." They do not because the spirit cannot be imprisoned. However you torture the flesh the spirit remains untouched. But you must have the spirit. All are not born with it. We can always recognize those who lave it, because they always stand out from their fellows, "like some tall cliff that lifts its head above the storm," as Oliver Goldsmith has phrased it. These persons with the spirit are always doing something that rivets the attention of their fellows, sometimes for law and progress and sometimes for lawlessness and violence, but everywhere they are storm centers.
No man is stronger than the law, than the government, but every man can register his protest against bad laws and bad administration of good laws. He is obliged to do so. He does not always do so, he does not set the example for others to do so, and intolerance and lawlessness grow apace on what they feed. If we allow injustice to go unchallenged, unprotested, unrebuked, it will soon get such a stranglehold as to overcome us entirely and leave us without hope. Think of the millions of Negroes who are so ruled and overawed that they have no hope. Such a condition prevails in the United States, in the West Indies, in certain parts of British Africa. It is our business to register our protest against it and to labor to correct the abuses and thus make life more tolerable.
In his epiphidid address at Liberty Hall, January 8, published in The Negro World of January 14, Hon. Percival L. Burrows, the Assistant Secretary-General, among other wise and timely things, said:
We can accomplish much more by taking our medicine like men and women than by flying in the faces of superior odds at this time. We must pray continuously that the suffering of our leader will not be in vain. We must pray because prayer is the key to heaven; it unbocks all doors, even material doors sometimes, but we feel sure that it unlocks spiritual doors. Let us, therefore, use our energies in the right direction; not vauntingly, not boastingly, but manfully. My advice to you is to keep silent on matters concerning the imprisonment of our President-General, but work assiduously towards the one objective, that of seeing that his case goes to the highest-court in order that we may be vindicated as members of this organization. His last message to us was, "What more can we do?" We are now confronted with that question, and we want like men and women to show what more we can do. As law-abiding citizens we bow in submission to the law of the land, but let us realize that only one thing will help us at this time, and that is to refrain from doing or saying anything which will bring harm or detriment to the association, of which we are a part.
No better advice was ever given to the hosts that gather in Liberty Hall. It is the duty of every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to be "as a light set upon a hill," in every community, a member of light and leading, taking the leadership in every good and worthy cause, and especially in the moral and material betterment of the condition of the race. Obey the laws, when they are good and just and administered in a spirit of fairness, and when they are bad laws and unfairly administered labor to correct them, enlisting the sympathy and support of your neighbors who may suffer as you do. When you can't change the condition move away from the place to some other where juster laws and administration prevail.
"What more can we do?" President Garvey asked in Liberty Hall, before leaving us. The answer is easy enough; it is on the tongue of each member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Obey the laws, as Mr. Burrows advises; make the most and not the least of our social, civil and economic resources, wherever we are. Stand squarely by the organization, whose principles these are, looking always to Marcus Garvey as the inspiration of our great hope, and we cannot fall.
came in both cases, and destroyed the money values and the confidence of thousands of people. Thousands of white concerns fail for the same reasons every year, but that does not destroy the public confidence in banks and insurance companies. It should not do so with us. We can't afford to have it do so. We can't get along very well without banks and insurance companies. They are necessary things; therefore, let us multiply them as far as we can, and don't get discouraged because we have an occasional failure.
"PRIDE GOETH BEFORE DESTRUCTION"
THE Editor of The Negro World has not given any attention to the many unfeeling and brutal things said by our contemporaries of the Negro Press about the misfortunes that have befallen President-General Marcus Garvey. They are entitled to their opinions, and some of them have been rotten enough in all conscience, but we have not deemed that it would serve any helpful purpose to answer them. Like Ephraim they are joined to their idols, and can see no good in those who do not think as they think, when they think, and who are incapable of seeing above their eyes, or of judging a man or his ideals if they look into the future but a little space. It is better to treat the outgivings of such people with the contempt of silence. We should gain nothing by jawing back at them. Such people should read what King Solomon said of them and their sort in Proverbs xvi., 18. He says:
"Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly than to divide the spoil with the proud."
Pew think that way. Most, especially those whose work prosper under their hands, for the time being, scorn the humble spirit and association or sympathy with the lowly, and walk the earth with a big strut and a long arm and a high hand. They are proud, and show it, until the lightning of Jupiter strikes them and they wither. We are all poor, weak creatures and travel always with the "pride that goeth with destruction," but most of us do not know, being unable to learn from the life of others through ancient and modern times. "The fight for freedom, once begun, bequeathed is from sire to son."
Africa will yet be redeemed. The Negro will yet have a decisive voice in the social, civil and economic conditions which make for the life and happiness of men.
READY TO SERVE MR. GARVEY'S SENTENCE FOR HIM
THE test of leadership is in the ability of a person to have an idea and be able to communicate it to others, who straightway follow him and are ready to sacrifice all that they have for him and his cause, which they have made their own. Marquis Garvey is such a leader. Mahatma Gandhi of India is one. Mohammed and Jesus were such men. Although the principles they gave to men have been assailed from every quarter, they live on and influence the lives of great masses of people, and the names of the authors of the principles become as imperishable as the principles. It must be an astonishment to a large portion of the Negro race, who have not learned to stand together and fight, under one leader for the accomplishment of given ideals, given principles, to note the loyalty with which millions of Negroes stand by Marquis Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement. Association, although the President-General has been removed from among them, and the large number who have signified their willingness to serve Mr. Garvey's term of imprisonment for him, if allowed to do so. Only a very great and dominating character could create that sort of membership and inspire it with such sentiments of loyalty and personal sacrifice. It is worth while to have lived and labored to create that sort of sentiment in the breasts of millions of Negroes. Marquis Garvey has done that.

What the Negro Has Done For Harlem of New York
Ten years ago, that square mile north of Central Park in New York, city, which goes by the name of Harlem bounded a prosperous section of Jews and Italians, with a sprinkling of Negroes about the fringe. Today that same Harlem, equally prosperous, in an American city in shadow of black and brown and yellow, the capital of the Negro race. Never before in the history of the world have so many Negroes been brought together in one community. They have come from the South in tens of thousands, from every island of the Caribbean gas, from Africa—the Dominican republic, the plains of Africa, with the makings of Harlem have grown, work, business acumen, and so on, which bathes the old city with effervescence of the Negro. In a little more than a Negro Negro city, my observations of real estate and commerce have been valuable homes. In the city streets, impoverished slaves graze, shoppers, they buy their lives, they have baskets and furniture of the common

For the first time it brings together an interpretation of this new.

KINGSTON GLEANER AND ITS SNEERING EDITOR
He Can't See Any Good in Marcus Garvey or the Ownership of Steamships by Negroes Because He Is Built Wrong
Editor of The Negro World:
A few weeks ago the editor of the Jamaica Gleaner published a very discriminating article against our honorable leader, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company and their supporters. The following are some of the many unreasonable things he wrote:
"It is regrettable to see how foolishly the Negroes are giving to Garvey their hard-earned money for the support of an imaginary steamship line. Just think of the idea!"
Now, let us reason out this man's attitude toward his race. In the years 1921-1923, in Cuba, there were hundreds of Negroes who worked for the owners of colonies, and, when they were to be paid, all they got was a slip of white paper with a promise written on it that they will be paid as soon as he gets money.
In some cases where the poor Negroes attempted to exercise a little determination to get their money the master of the colony placed the money over the muzzle of his revolver, with his finger on the trigger, and defied the Negroes to take it off.
The Negroes, realizing the fact that they had no one to see into any disadvantages that they may encounter, had to leave their money with their employer so as to get away with their lives.
During this same period there was a proclamation of a so-called moratorium in the country, and all the banks (except the Royal Bank of Canada) had been closed, with thousands, of dollars of Negroes' money.
This editor, who is so good, friendly and interested (?) in the Negroes, was informed of all these things, but never gave even a line of his Jamaica Gleaner for comment.
Was 'this money honestly earned? in his opinion, no. But as soon as the Negroes started to co-operate financially in a good cause—a cause which will surely help to put our race on the plane of equality in this modern civilization, up comes this "white-washed" Negro editor of that Jamaica Gleaner giving a whole page of his paper, telling us that we must not support a steamship line, it is an "airy vision and our moneya have been hard earned," etc., and the idea of Negroes organising a steamship line is a vague one.
Just think of such a Negro's idea! We would like to let him understand that he may succeed in fooling a part of the Negroes all the time, but he will not succeed in fooling all the Negroes all the time.
In the year 1920 a few Negroes of this editor's type, in Jamaica, started to organize a steamship line that would work between Jamaica and Cuba. They sent representatives to Cuba, who collected a vast amount of Negroes' money for the support of the said steamship line, and up to now not even a canoe can be produced in the name of that shipping company, and nothing more is heard about it.
I suppose such money was not earned hard enough, owing to the fact that he said nothing about it. I know these to be facts, for I have friends who suffered greatly by the snout, and had I not been too careful I, too, would have suffered.
This goodly editor, in describing the S. S. General Goethals, which is now known as the Booker T. Washington, said: "It is a little, insignificant ship of only 5,000 tons, and can carry only 160 passengers." How strange! When the S. S. Gen. Goethals was the property of the United States Shipping Board it was a big ship, it was a good ship, it was a beautiful ship, but the moment Negroes owned that ship it got too small. It got insignificant and good for nothing, in the estimation of the "white-washed" Negro editor of the Jamaican cleaner.
In this article he said that Marya Calvay and his satellite followers are laboring under windy dreams and airy visions. Navarrethia, a crop on the windy dreams and the airy visions of prophete and apostles have been materialized; the vision of Marcus Gervery of a free and redemined Africa, an African empire, a great Nearctic army, a great Nearctic navy, a great Nearctic maritime states shall also materialize. We have not being example the materialization of the vision of the North Coast Nearctic nations and Trading Company in dry regions, and in a way as no other fellow that shall the existing history of our vines plant and maintain for the hemp.
EGYPT THE MOTHER OF CIVILIZATION Written for The Negro World by J. ELMER WORRELL
O. land of famed ancestors,
O. land of mighty kings,
Of pyramids and temples.
And other wondrous things!
And teach perfidious Albion
No weaker to despoil.
Teach her that red Amritsars
Can never justice foil.
Teach her that great dominion
Should rest on great restraint;
That junker sword and pistol
Proclaim her junker taint;
That gilded cross and altar
But bomb and bullet mean
To "poor benighted heathen"
When Christians set the scene;
"With Maxim gun and Bible
We Gordon laid to rest,
In good old English manner,
The way they love the best.
Where is the Church of England,
Where prayer is outpoured:
"For king and country save us,"
For others save the sword?
To Mafi of vengeful valor
A pleasing sight must be
This "Christian indignation"
Surpassing savage glee—
But Egypt of the lotus,
And of the scarabee,
Unwearied in thy waiting
Till princes come of thee!
Let tyrants know and foemen
Who now outrage thy land,
That nothing is but passes
To lie beneath the sand.
Some day, too, proud Britannia
Must yield her to the foe,
Some day she of the trident
Must wear the weeds of woe.
And right prevail, my brothers,
Though darkness reign supreme
Till, smitten sore in smiting,
Base Albion ends her dream.
Then Isis, mother Isis,
Be near at Freedom's call
To rear those early altars
By vandals caused to fall!
Then Egypt of the lotus,
And of the scarabee,
Unmatched in ancient splendor,
Thine own shall come to thee!
They Will Wait and Labor Until Mr. Garvey Returns
Editor of The Negro World:
Please allow me space in your valuable columns to send a few words of consolation to our esteemed leader, who is now behind prison bars for what I term his 'daring courage in doing the impossible'—that of arousing the Negroes of the world to race consciousness with the aim, and determination of forming a government on the continent of Africa under the colors of the red, the black and the green.
If the tears shed for him at this time could serve any purpose, then it would be enough to form a stream which would carry him from Atlanta. Ga., to Liberty Hall, New York; but, as tears can do nothing, please tell him we are 'behind him to the last man and shall never give up the fight for justice till God in His own-due time shall give us the desires of our hearts. We shall not fall him, we shall not falter, but we shall so carry on the work he has so nobly begun, and this I know will cheer him up in his moments of deepest agony.
When he shall return to us, as we hope he will, he will not have need to ask the question asked by Jesus to His disciples when He came from the Garden of Gethsemane: 'Can ye not watch with Me one hour?' for we hope he shall and every member doing his duty. This I know to be the sentiment of all loyal members of the cause that is no dear to us.

HEALTH TOPICS
By DR. B. S. HERBEN
of the New York Tuberculosis Ass'n
Why Be Nervous?
"It is a difference in the nervous system. It is a difference in temperament."
In North Dakota when a hurricane swept away the great wings of the windmill and destroyed some of the other buildings, a friend writes, "the robins did not make a sound for a week and the wrens chattered night and day and are still at it." Some people are robin-like in disposition and others whom I know are like the wrens, of a highly excitable nature. After all, though, if there were no difference in temperament, what a dreary place this world would be.
Herdity is, of course, the basis for the particular reactions which we have. Everything which we do is the result of "nervous reactions." If we were not nervous, we should be more lumps of clay. When people speak of nervousness they usually mean fussiness, irritability, uncontrolled muscular actions, unreasonable fearfulness, depression and allied symptoms.
Those who are so unfortunate as to have inherited peculiar nervous diseases should be under the supervision of the doctor. Those who have been well and do develop nervous symptoms should take thought. Sometimes nervousness is a sign of lack of sufficient sleep. This is more true than ever in these days of high television. Lack of sufficient food, chronic constipation, inadequate recreation or too much, or, in other words, all the indiscretions which spall improper living may cause nervousness. Much conditions are contagious.
Those who cannot adapt themselves to unpleasant but necessary circumstances suffer from a nervousness which has a poor fault at the bottom of the trouble. The higher the intelligence and the more healthy the individual is the easier it is to combat it. At times it requires a physician to help in the adjustment. Ill Health, which is due to some corruptible defect such as diarrhea, toxin followed by depression), or to a disorder of some organ, which provides in "mental secretion" to symptoms, or to other other conditions should be given treatment. These diseases who are nervous but healthy and not yet painful are equal to any by the disorder of the nervous system in body for the treatment and to a degree in their condition in the onset of the disease.

In yet another corner, two African stalwarts, adolescents, whose grace would have charmed Alma Tademo, were struggling in the clutch of the wrestle. And in a fourth allowed position, an abony incarnation of the Discobolus by Prometheus posed and curveted and pressed himself. His animal beauty justified the rights of Africa to a share of little good things as no racial mandate could ever hope to do. About him a little group of fellow-athletes waited their turn to occupy the middle of the stage, meanwhile rolling expectant eyes toward the veranda, and utterly anticipatory cries, of thanks for the coins their grace would soon earn.
"Is the Ogdi Afala as good as this, always?"
"Oh, very much better; very much better!" was the reply that rose to the lips of one of my companions. By this time, we four were pouted, oh! so gingerly, on the edge of a long sette. Our garments still clung to our benumbed limbs like the hands of jealous partners. There was a monotonic drip, drip, drip from the eaves; and I, for one, felt that life would not be worth living until I had got on the outside of a stiff glass of brandy.
A steward approached with champagne (!) and cake (!). I waved him impatiently aside, and whispered: "Brandy, for the love of Mike, my lad."
Ontsla was six' mud-washed miles away; and I would have given the first joint of my left-hand finger for a complete change of clothes.
"What pluck the darlings haven't said a female voice behind me. I started, in the sudden thought that my companions and I were arousing well-deserved commiseration in high quarters. But the voice went on. 'Think of it! This rain has been beating dolorously down for nearly an hour, and yet the fun goes on without a moment's interruption. We were fortunate to get here before it started, weren't we?'
Ah, fortunate indeed, dear lady judging from my own dental teeth that (at long last) we were cleaning themselves against the rains of a heart of "Hennery, please." The cooing warmth that stole us after the "tot" had been grilled, and a worth a thousand comings. I felt emboldened at last to join in the conversation.
"Happy is the bride." I quoted: "you know the old tag. We can supplement that proverb with the thought that threes happy is the King whom the clouds rain on, but do not prevent admirers from showing their esteem." A smiling acquiescence was the answer. I had learned already that the King was retired to his room. He had shown himself to the populace several times, duly garbed in crown and regalia, but was now fatigued by the strain of a long day's hospitality. His sons and daughters, meanwhile, remained sedulous in their attention; and we remained on the veranda, appreciative listeners and observers of the pageantry about us, until the dusk began to fall.
And ushered in that heavenly grace! There is nothing then dear for one to take When in his Blessed arms you behold his face.
NOTICE
The weather had been as unstable as an African October, the fing-end of the rainy season, could well make it. But rain or shine, bleakness or writh, the populace still "erlested in hir-ing its annual "Wanes."
As our garments slowly dried upon us, and we took a little more nourishment, we four "lost arrivals" were glad to dislurse our loose silver with the others. It was a relief to one's sense of moral responsibility, thus to empty one's pockets in favor of the black atlocs below, who wrestled and danced, and sang, as enthusiastically as though the sun were shining overhead. Nothing in life could exceed the joy with which, whether the coin' was worth a penny or a shilling; these naked adolescents scrambled and fought in the mud. Notis Forest or Everton could not have produced so fine a scrimmage, even in these palmy days of football.

"Is the Ogid! Ofala, always as good
as this?"
Mrs. Flint learned across her husband's shoulder to propound the question. We had just arrived by motorcar, a storm-pelled party of four, looking woe-begone and dejected. In our dripping garments, we must have seemed altogether out of the picture. For we were disencerted to find ourselves amid a score of fellow Europeans, already on the King's veranda before the rain began to fall, and looking entirely happy and at ease. Well protected from the elements (which still raged like an uncontrolled spasm of Jazz), exenced in cory armchairs, and regulated with the choicest of liquors and vials, we could only vote that compliment to King Walter Amobl's stagecraft as subtle a tribute as human heart might desire. "Is the Ofala always as good as this?"
In the open compound, contemptuous of the weather, thousands of natives were gathered. Near the arched portal Mwan, the temporarily embodied soul of one departed, waited sedately, with elephantine grace. He (sic) was surrounded by his satellites, armed with nim-ile fans. Quite, gratutiously ey agitated the air in his environment for coolness, even while the rainings twinkled at the end of their wrists, or glanced down their naked

pilita?" asked one of the ladies at last. "Miss Elma has invited us allot tea." There was a general movement toward the waiting car. Through the congested areas of the town, surrounded to the last by happy natives, we bowled rapidly down the road toward Ontika. Evenu is, as it ever was and will be, the half-way house from Ontika to "Bush."
Miss Elms and her co-workers complain that in these days of rapid road transport, people do not "drop in" as they were want to do. But we all at Othnisha know a good thing when we find it; and the fame of Miss Elms' confectionery is great. Like the small boy who thought he might like for his birthday present a copy of Samuel Smiles' "Self Help," but had definite convictions that an air gun would be more appropriate, we knew that "three clock" with a charming hostess would be more acceptable than the hurly burly of King Walter Amold's compound, no matter how hospitable he might have proven to be.
Farewell, then, to royalties, trumpeters and guards; and hall to the dearest social rite known to the British heart. We had left behind us many of the King's colored guests, seated at a table in the "puritor," and all engrassed in the good things before them. If one might judge by appearances, and the goodly supply of rice and four-four about them, they scarcely would be able to give to every mouthful that legitimate number of chews, which William Ewart Gladstone once held down as necessary.
But here came Eyem, Our cars swept away from the road, through the rain-drenched flower-bells, on toward the group of buildings which represent Outisha's Native Samaritum.
We found Miss Eung, diminutive and plump and smiling, waiting for us, the quintessence of hospitality. This typical woman missionary of Nigeria was both eager and willing to entertain us, though we must have been, at least a score in number. Seated on her cozy plaza, with its shining walls of polished clay, "a roseted cottage, half as old as time!" we were soon slapping tea, eating delicate little cakes, and dwelling the responsive motions of life at home and in the tropics. Nigeria here also palm, in spite of Mosquito, "White Carrots" and Malaria!
Miss Eung's fellow worker, the cheerful Miss Jowitt, "Sister" of the Junior Wash, now proposed a gourmet broth the heirthfies before the students went to sleep for the plum. Nothing both, we passed in Indian life through one building after another greeting the beds on either side with gusty words that were just as eagerly returned.
'Na, onchea! E di kwemna? Na,
na, ma!
Sometimes we poured, especially with bodies, to cuddle one or other of the babies; or to exchange notes with the Slater-about its aliment. The bright clearness, the undeniably spiritual atmosphere, and the wholesome optimism of all concerned with the care of the words, make a tribute to the golden heart of Miss Elms that mere words may not poitray. 1 God created man. It was the Christ examine that made woman, the ideal woman of modern life who is incarnate symbol of Labor, Sacrifice and Love.
Miss Elma will need no epitaph beyond the wonderful work she has done during so many patient years at Eyena.
At one window, though the night was nearly come, a colored boy of fifteen sat hard at work on his lessons. A Pagan but a few months before, he would not waste, even the rest and recreation of hospital; but must still further familiarize himself with the good tidings that are sent to men of all colors!
Fortunately, the Mortuary was empty, but we lingered to admire the wealthy display of surgical instruments in the operating theatre. We endorsed Slater Jewitt's claim that the African is gloriously amenable to the knife, when other remedies have failed. Miss Elma has a reputation for skill in this direction which would set up many a "more male" for the full term of his medical career in Harley street, as a highly-feed specialist. She rights always to win.
As we wended our way back to the plaza, Sister Jewitt told us hilariously of the 'little London giltzznupe who described rubarb as "colory gene bloodshot". She had pointed to the permanganate bottle and whispered that the natives always regard the scarlet infusion of potash, used for wound dressings as a liquified form of blood. The Negro's credence in miracles is still toughly child-like. It was not quite dark. We were then to part from our two hostesses and to turn our faces toward Quincy Waterside. The rules had ceased, as the rivers had in view, and a new minister had begun to aid.
At the junction of the two principal roads we halted a white before departing.
"Why not make a night of it?" she continued.

Each then to his own bungalow, with the intention of reassembling at Stuart Young's old quarters (unply named The Little House of No Regrets), for a musical melange. The ladies having had a full day at Ogidil did not reappear, but fifteen Europeans were soon sitting around the library, ready for whatever might transpire. Under the skilled chairmanship of Gomersal, possessor of the finest light baritone voice this side of Lagos, "songs round or recittoftons" became the order of the hour.
Hardcore oblified with "The Vetorian," Bales with "Nilevan" tribute and derive cries of "not much silence on your bench, old bird" as he started away with Weatherley's declamatory, "I come from the silent Forest, my beautiful-lotus flower?" Flummery presented a splendid piece of milture in which he became George Formby, Gus Elen, Mark Sheridan and R. G. Knowles in rapid transition, and then the host was called upon for his best poem, "Men of the Coast."
As usual, Stuart Young broke downimentably half a dozen times (alas for the West, Coast memory) in a reproduction of his own work, but he was word-perfect in Watson, Kipling and Service. As an encore he gave "The Law of Averages," with its philosophic reasoning, so consolatory in these hard trading times that "Yer losses on yer kernels ver杰 averages on lie" and then came a few humorous stories from Meyer of the Posts and Telegraphs, followed by a brisk little ditty of the Music Hall type by Harrison of the industrial Mission. Gomerault himself rendered finely, two solos of quite opposite quality: "Pennsylvania" and "Friend of Mine," and there were gems of varying talent and interest from the others.
After the concert was over, a gramophone was put into requisition, and Stuart Yauga's wheezy old accordion had finally aside. Being of German origin (Christian firms will not fill the breaches still open as a result of the wart) its compass, food limited to the open chromatic scale of $C_3$ and its high notes, were an indisputable strain of colour that were either baritone, basses or Worthington?

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 14. Word has been received from Rev. M. J. Key, J. O. Hathcox, K. H. Burress and S. J. Jones, now touring Palestine is guest of the Madam C. J. Walker-Manufacturing Company of this city. The party is all well and happy and enjoying the matchless sights of their extensive tours. Apparently, nothing worthy of note is escaping their view. In the Holy Land many biblical passages are being more indelibly impressed upon their minds by their sight of the things and places of another day which remain unchanged by the on-rush of time.
Their complete program of alight-scoiling in Palestine has taken them to many interesting and sacred places among them the Church of Holy Sepulchre, covering the spot, where Christ was crucified and buried. In this church is the Rock Cavalry, the stone which covered the mouth of the Sepulchre and a stone with two imprints said to be the footprints of Christ; the Church of the Ascension, covering the spot from where Christ ascended into heaven upon the third day the Russian Excavation Church, which encloses the original gates of Jerusalem; the Garden of Gethsemane, situated on the road to the Mount of Olives, in a quiet secluded spot surrounded by a wall. A rock near its entrance merks the spot where Peter, James and John slept. Near this is the spot where Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus with a kisr. Bethlehem, the home of David and Christ, has been visited, where was seen the Church of the Nativity erected over the birthplace of Christ. Bethany and Jericho have been visited; the Dead Sea, where stands the traditional Pilgrim of Pilgrim, the River of Jordan, by which is the Valley of Meah, overlooked by Mount Bea in which Moses is buried. Other places of biblical importance to pilgrims to mention have been visited by these men and their trip is proving that imagination could make it. As the members of the party wrote, "The expedition has brought more to me, than I had anticipated."

It was a pleasant evening, February 16, when a friend and I decided that we should deviate from the general after-suppose custom of working crossword puzzles. At first the decision was agreed upon, but when we remembered that at that time of the evening it was not an easy task to invent another pleasure that could absorb our attention with equal interest we began to deliberate. There was one suggestion and then another. At one time it was reading over old love letters; at another it was perusing Thackayan. Anyhow, we finally decided that it would be wonderful to turn aside from dictionary's vertical and horizontal lines and holdie in something that would appeal to both sight and hearing.
What could that be? My friend suggested dancing, I the opera. It is not so much that I cared for opera in preference to dancing, but immediately before making my son's question I remembered an advertisement I saw in The Negro World announcing the presentation of Miss Caroline Reed on that very evening at Liberty Hall. This appealed to us more so because of the "Miss." Not very long after we left the home, dispatched to the subway station, and, as if by chance, it seemed that Nature had it all played for us to have a glorious evening. The weather was of that very kind which calls for the latent romance of a manic temperament, filling his mind with muscle and disposing him to quote poetry and dream of ecstasy.
In this mood of musical and remote susceptibility we entered Liberty Hall, the home of the grand opera. To an artist the scenery of Liberty Hall would have been sufficient inspiration to paint himself big immortal picture. Much influenced were we by the fine scenery. The hall was decorated with flags, these were plum trees bither and thither, which gave it an Appearance of boundless plains waving with spontaneous verve. The illumination was extraordinary.
We were there but five minutes when we heard a command as coming from a military general, directed to the major of the Royal Engineers, the sponsors of the occasion. Immediately as the command was given the men paraded down the aisle and climbed the rostrum. On reaching there, Major Dorsett treated us to a military exhibition by his company. This was the most unique I ever witnessed. The commander and chairman was the Hon. George Weston. In a very befitting manner he presented the Major, who in turn introduced the guest of the occasion, Miss Caroline V. Grob, professor of Wisconsin Conservatory of Music and song bird of the Fost. Her first condition was an ode, and after that a solo to the Hon. Marcus Garvey, entitled "Soul Through Your Tears," Among other selections she sang "Swallow!" "Indian Love Song," by Liaurance; "Cryplan, Night Song," by Lohr. The accompaniment were Prof. L. Dyer, piano; J. Dias, flute. Assisting them was L. V. Lavier, the innitable cellist. The program was brought to a close with "Home, Greet Home" by Miss Reed.

to the motionless form of my companion? Could it be that he is entrained by the liquid strains of my body wafted into the air. Ah, yes; he was lost in reverie; the grandeur of the occasion was too great for him. Anyhow, after a while I succeeded in awakening him from his dream. Then away we went after spreading a glorious evening listening to strains of music as they fell from the lips of the unmatchable song bird, Miss Caroline V. Reed.
LID ON RADICALS LIFTED YEAR'S SURVEY SHOWS
A sharp decline in interference with civil rights is reported by the American Civil Liberties Union in a survey of conditions during 1924 as compared with the two previous years. Power free speech prosecutors, police interferences with meetings and cases of mob violence have been reported than in any year since the beginning of the war. The Union accounts for this decline by three factors, the presence tendency to control public opinion through propaganda; the absence of any serious industrial conflict and the increased freedom of opinion in usual in a presidential campaign year.
In 1921, the report shows, there were 233 prosecutions involving freedom of speech or assembly by state and local authorities as against 310 in 1921 and 846 in 1922; 41 cases of mob violence as against 80 in 1923 and 125 in 1922; 28 meetings interfered with as many as 58 in 1923 and 28 in 1922; and 16 tyrannies as against 25 in 1923 and 61 in 1922. All of the 16 tyrannies took place in Southern States, except in Illinois. The victims were all Negroes.
Mob violence centered chiefly about the Ku Klux Klan, the report specifies adding that "the violence was more often against the Klan than by an in previous years." Klan gatherings were attacked in Lilly, Pa., in April, Niles, Ohio, in August, and November and Lancaster, Mass., in August. Armed battles between Klan and anti-Klan forces took place in Herrin, Ill., and Buffalo, N. Y., in September.
As in previous years, California leads the country in the number of prosecutions, with 202 persons, all members of the I. W. W. arrested under the criminal syndicalism act. This number, the Civil Liberties Union report states, is lower than in previous years, I. W. W. prosecutions in California having practically ceased in the last five months. Communities and I. W. Ws were also arrested in New York, New Jersey, Maine, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Nebraska and New Hampshire.

tion to say that Garvays teachers have raised the standard of the race and give it a consciousness of itself and powers never before realized.
Since the days of Frederick Douglass no Negro has lived whose name has traveled so far and wide over the face of this earth. No Negro whose name alone so passionately moves the hearts of millions of men. While, Douglass impressed the world, as one born a slave crying aloud for the freedom and advancement of a small section of Negroes who by chance were brought captives to America, Garvay has become in the minds of millions of Negroes settled the world over a savior of the race as a whole; the champion, yes, theless champion, of a downrod and oppressed people. He has written his name indelibly in the hearts and minds of Africans, at home and abroad, as the first patriot and martyr to African redomption. Say what you will or may, whether it fifty years or five hundred, and fifty years, when Africa is redeemed and her history written—when the black man comes into his own and monuments are built—posterity will set the name of Marous Garvay high above all as Africa's most stalwart son. (Applause.)
The Pity of It
the pity of, it all is, that the Negro himself, and especially that Negro, is so much needed at this time to save the race, is unable or too short-sighted to correctly appraise the worth and value of Marcus Garvoy. It appears that man always has less sense and understanding when he should have most. Just at this time when the activities of the race will determine whether or not the Negro will remain a permanent race among men or be destroyed as a people, we need all the brains and genius the race can muster, and yet in the face of this need some of the most outstanding figures in American Negro life have made themselves active in the persecution of Garvoy.
The Cause Made More Sacred
The attempt has been made to destroy him, but it has only served to make greater the man and more sacred the cause. When these petty men are dead and forgotten and their bones rotted, the name of Garvey will be alive upon the lips of men. That which adds to Garvey's greatness is the time in which he lives. He lives not like Frederick Douglas at a time when an intellectual Negro was a curiosity and literacy was in great abundance. Instead, he lives at a time which sees a race of black geniuses dashing forward in every field of endeavor, paving to the world by their work and contribution, the future possibilities of the black man. Garvey lives at a time when the race is rich in bright Negro intellects able to hold their own and match their wit, with the formost men of their age. He's at a time when he might have watched Dr. Williams, the noted surgeon of Chicago operate upon the human heart, or have listened to the melodious strains of Rommond Johnson or Harry Burleigh. He might have heard the witless
might have smiled at the wink and hum of Bert Williams or bowed in reverence to the genius of Dunbar. He might have looked into the eyes of Madam C. J. Walker, Chas. Young and Booker T. Washington, or have held conversation with Kelly Miller. T. Thomas Fortune, and other Negroes of literary achievement.
Garvey Towers Above Them All
Garvey Towers About Philip All
There are Negro giants in these days, and in their midst stands Marcus Garvey. He does not possess the medical skill of a Williams, the musical aptitude of Burleigh nor the poetic genius of Dunbar. He may not be able to invent like Ellijah McCoy, nor preach like a Chas. T. Walker, yet above all these Marcus Garvey towers head and shoulders as the greatest history making personality of his race; for he has opened a new world to Negro enterprise and a new area to Negro progress. He has paved the way for Africa's redemption. His has been a contribution not of brick or mortar but of racial confidence, love solidarity and backbone. Under the influence of his teachings the Negro Everywhere is straightening up, throwing his shoulders back, and beginning to feel
$500 Reward If I Hai
the throb of manhood in his breast. Great was his opposition, but Garvey fought on. Threats reached him from every; quarter; still he fought on; friend turned their backs upon him, still he fought on. He was maligned, lied about and accused; called by some a thief and robber; called by some a hypocrite and imposter; some called him crazy, while others branded him as a dreamer and a fanatic. Still he fought on with a tenacity of purpose, a lofty and inflexible courage with an unbending will which never qualified or finched; before - human - antagonists, prison gates or death, for the cause of the race as he saw it. He continued to cry about in the language of Patrick Henry. "Give me back Africa, the land of my fathers, or give me death." (Applause.)
Garvey. Not Faultless
In offering this tribute to Marcus Garvey I do not wish to conceal any of his faults, mistakes or shortcomings. If he has made mistakes which need covering—if he has faults which need concealing, be it far from me to cover them with falsehood and misrepresentation. God forbid that I should attempt to cover them with the flowers of rhotoric. But if he has made mistakes which, should be covered, let them be covered with the pure white mantle of love and sympathy. If they cannot be covered with love and sympathy they must remain bare to the world as a grievous blight against a great and courageous character and a vastly influential life. But what means Garvey's faults when we remember that no man—it matters not great he is or was—has been without them. When we have examined the lives of some of our greatest characters, even in the holy writ, when we have looked unbizzy upon the lives of Luther, Voltaire, Goethe, Bacon, Savanorea, Byron and Shakespeare; when we have scrutinized Solomon in all of his glory, Belshazzar exulting in his Babylonian splendor, Alexander in the full way of his greatness and dominion; Pericles in his Antheanian pride and prosperity; the Caesars in their imperial supremac; the Stugrats and Tudors, the Napoleons and Burbons in the pomp and magnificence of their reign, and have viewed their many faults, mistakes and shortcomings, we are compelled to look upon Marcus Garvey with a kindler eye and pray that God may soon restore him to his people that he may continue to advance.
We honor him tonight for what he has meant to us, for the hope he has given, for the light he has shown. He has been taken from us for a reason. Millions will yearn and hope for his return. His hand has been stayed and his tongue chained, but the cause of Africa still goes marching on. The hope which he planted in Negro hearts will live forever. The seed which he has sown with such a copious hand shall still germinate, bloom and bear fruit. He will forever, be our guide and leader. As protestantism had but one Luther, and Christianity but one Christ; as France had but one Joan of Arc, and America but one Washington, so will Africa have but one Marcus Garvey. (Great applause.)
DR. RAWLINS' ADDRESS
Dr. E. Elliott Rawlins said: It is with a great deal of pleasure that I stand here tonight, on this rostrum of Liberty Hall, and give expression of approval and laudation to "the greatest Negro of modern times." Marous Garvey is without a doubt a "great Negro"; great because no other man of this age has so fired millions of Negroes, ignorant, uneducated and learned alike, with the unquenchable spirited urge of "race building" and "racial cooperation." He has, for example, taught and inspired even so educated a man as Burgadh Dubols "to see the feasibility and importance of Africa's future regeneration," so that now, Dubols speaks and writes continuously of Africt this, Africa that, Africa today, and Africa tomorrow.
If Marcus Garvey did nothing more than, this, inspiring the lowly Negro and inspiring "Negro aristocrat" to "prisonize and to plan for the future keeping of Africa for black men, then he has contributed enough, to place him among the great men of modern times. This to my mind, dear friends, is the reason for Marcus Garvey's persecution; inspired, fostered and pushed in the details of its execution, by the white race, who sees a menace to its present over-lordship by the inspired, potent and vigorous leadership of Marcus Garvey.
You know the program of the Uni-
THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1925
versal Negro Improvement Association is not national in scope; it is international. Negroes are scattered over the earth's surface, and wherever they are, they have been the underdogs, in the affairs social, educational, industrial and political. The white race has taken unto itself the "good-things of the world" by keeping the black man down, so that he hews the white man's stone and carries the white man's water for which he is paid little, even though the white man gets much. Marcus Garvey sensed the injustice of this, and with the clarion call of an inspired leader, he has awakened the slumbering consciousness of the black people of the world—and the governments of white men seek to assail him and silence his tongue, and thus crush the awakening consciousness of his people. But even in prison, still Marcus Garvey's persistent spirit is in the hearts of every true black man. There is still that urge. "Africa for the Africans."
The indomitable leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is also counted among the great men of our time, because of the methods he is using, to scatter his propaganda of racial cohesion. His critics and opponents say, Marcus Garvey is born bastic. Marcus Garvey is "half zeal and half fakir"; Marcus Garvey is his "idle dreamer," he is not practical; Marcus Garvey estimates the "Negroes as inferior," and he wants them "segregated from the society of the world," and unto themselves develop a land, of which generations back the Negro people of America knew nothing."
Friends—great men are always misunderstood. Marcus Garvey is no exception of this rule. Bull" thanks he to God—those who misunderstand him are in the minority, and the majority of Negroes today are singing "Te Deum" of praises to his name.
Marcus Garvey with the genius of a great leader uses methods that are "new to Negro leadership. He appeals first to the hearts and souls of the lowly of his race. And why not, is it not the lowly class of Negroes who bear most the "crushing burdens" of the white man's over-lordship? He appeals to the crouching spirit of the Negro, who was fast losing heart; and now after seven years of propaganda, preaching and education, in the principles of the U. N. I. A., the Negro masses, both in America and abroad, are standing firm, with cheats out, heads upright, and are looking white men in the face, and saying, "Here stands a son of Africa, like the Ethiopian of old, proud of his motherhood, and planning for its 'old-time glory.'"
Such an attitude amthis, in the hearts, mind and souls of the Negro peoples of the world has been the crowning achievement of Marcus Garvey's teachings. The seed has been sown. The future well bring forth its fruit.
Mr. Garvey's personality has been assaulted by many people who wish to have some logical cause for their opposition. To my mind the program of the U. N. I. A., the people with which he has to deal, the crooks, the khives, the selfish motives of self-seeking officers who surrounded him in the past required a personality such as Mr. Garvey has. He is determined and he has an adamant will. God knows Mr. Garvey needs these qualities. The Negro has been and is still a divided race, Mr. Garvey has a vision. He knows what he wants, and he is determined to get it. These are merely the qualities of a great leader. Ghandi has the same adamant will and determination. Napoleon has the same dosed personality. What looks like pugnaciousness and obstinacy is only the driving force of a masterful mind, honest to his convictions, and determined to break down opposition. There is one other quality that makes Marcus Garvey great. The seven years in which he has toilled for the building up of the largest Negro organization of the world have been used completely, in the interest of the masses. Not one moment has he thought of self. He has not been restrained by any consideration of self-interest. He spoke as he felt. He has worked incessantly for the interest of all the Negroes of the world, regardless of princes, government officials or landed aristocracy or fear of place or pocketbook. This is something new in Negro leadership, and it has made him great.
These, then, my fellow members, are the qualities of our great leader, which inspire you and me to a loyalty that is unbreakable to Marcus Garvey, the man and to the cause which he has up to now so matchlessly espoused. Let us never falter. Let us never wane; the program of the, U. N. I. A. must, and will finally win. Let us "carry on" for the cause is just. In no other way can we repay this great man, who tonight lays on his couch in Atlanta prison, still thinking and planning for the future regeneration of Africa and the unity and cohesion of the black peoples of the world.

Saturday, July 29th ... Monday, 30th, 31st, 32nd
Owing to the large number of acceptances of invitations extended to prominent men of both races to attend and address the mammoth mass meeting to be held by Equity Congress to turtur the movement for colored officers for the Fighting Fifteenth, and because of the, widespread public interest in the matter, it has been found necessary to secure larger quarters. The Congress, therefore, announces that the mass meetings, will be held at Liberty Hall, 120 West 133th street, March 4, at 8 o'clock p. m.
It is proposed to make this meeting one of the largest manifestations of race effort that Harlem has over known. The accomplishments of this famous regiment on the battlefields of France are still fresh in the minds of the people, and the fact that we have in our midst an ample number of men eligible and capable of filling all the offices in the regiment adds decided zest to the campaign. Even as Equity Congress originally conceived and fought for the recognition of the regiment, it is now fighting to bring about the fullness that was contemplated by its original campaign, by the bill authorizing the regiment, and by the Governor whose signature made the bill a law. Let us all join in this laudable effort to make this regiment a Negro regiment from colonel down to privates.
A cordial invitation is extended to all citizens, male and female; to all organizations, churches and associations, to be present at the meeting, or, at least, send representatives with authority to speak for each body, to the end that this meeting will make clear to the Governor and the entire legislative body of the State that the colored citizens of this leading State of the Union feel it their due to be represented in the State military organization by an all-colored unit, and that the battle will be unceasingly waged all down the line until such representation is extended. Don't forget the time and place: Wednesday evening, March 4, at Liberty Hall, in 138th street, at 8 o'clock sharp. Come and bring your friends. Also follow up this effort by attending the regular sessions of Expo Congress each Sunday afternoon from 5 to 7 o'clock in the chambers of the Congress at Elkton Hall, second floor front, 162 West 129th street. Admission free, and all friends of the race are always welcome. The great Monarch band of eighty pieces will play.
WHITE NEWSPAPER ON THE TROUBLE ABOUT GARVEY
oil comparative justice, is the fact that this colored man is given a sentence of five years when so many greater offenders are sentenced to but two years, and still others, are enjoying complete immunity from any punishment whatsoever.
The Northwestern Bulletin Appeal of St. Paul, Minn., on February 14 printed the following editorial:
"Conviction of Marcus Garvey
Marcus Garvey lost his appeal to have the verdict of the court that found him guilty of using the United States mails to defraud in the sale of stock in the Black Star Navigation Company. The defendant announces his intention to carry the matter to the court of last resort—the United States Suprane Court.
"We are too far removed from the influence of Mr. Garvey and the evidence, as appeared in the press is too vague for us to form an opinion on the guilt or innocence of the defendant. However, we believe Mr. Garvey erred when he refused to employ counsel for defoise. We do not agree with Marcus Garvey's scheme to establish an emple in Africa, yet, for all of that, Garvey may possess a vision of universality far greater than we are able to penetrate. Who can say that he is altogether wrong? From our standpoint we have the solution of the problems of the American Negro, whose destiny must be worked out in this county, where conditions are more favorable than in fever-striken Africa.
"Garvey is not an ordinary man. He has a large following who have faith in his integrity; in spite of his conviction. That he has accomplished what he has under such adverse conditions proves conclusively his ability to lead, regardless of the fact that he has the co-operation of not more than 25 per cent of the Negroes in America."
Ancestors seem greatest to those who haven't kept the pace the old boys set.
More numbers no longer awe Americans. Think how many laws there are.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 10. The semi-annual meeting of the Board of Trustees of Howard University was held today in the Board Room of the Carnegie Library on the University Campus. Dr. Charles R. Brown, of New Haven, Conn., chairman of the Board of Trustees of the University, presided.
President J. Stanley Durkes of Howard University. In his report at the semi-annual meeting of the board, called attention to the great progress which the university is making in the educational world. The wide scope of collegiate and professional work being done at the university is indicated in the statistics showing the number of students enrolled in the various departments of the university at the close of the autumn quarter, Dec. 31, 1924. The tabulation is as follows: College Department: Junior College, 624; Liberal Arts, 188; Commerce and Finance, 26; Education, 49; Applied Science, 63; Music, 42; Public Health, 1; Evening Classes, 155; making a total in the College Department of 1,148 students: Professional Schools: School of Religion, 109; Law, 99; Medical College, 247; Dental College, 104; Pharmaceutical College, 49; making a total in the Professional Schools of 608 students.
Special Students: School of Pharmacy, 3: Religion (Special Correspondence), 97: Music (Certificate Courses). 24: making a university grand total at the end of the autumn quarter, 1924. 1,580 students. For the winter quarter additions will bring the attendance up to 2,000.
The president commented upon the reception figures that those probably would be a total of 2,400 students enrolled in the university during the school year, 1924-25.
Dr. Emmett J. Scott, the Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University, in discussing his financial report to the Board of Trustees at the semi-annual meeting, gave a thorough analysis of the income and expenditures of the university, explaining in detail the report of the auditors of the university covering the past fiscal year. A comparison with the total assets at the close of the preceding year showed the
increase of $112,524.63, the valuation of the education plant showed an increase of $20,871, representing the surplus of new equipment amounting to $17,574 and expenditures of $3697 on account of the new gymnasium, arsenal and athletic field. Other items contributing to the increase in the total assets of the university, including the increase in the endowment, funds brought about through the endowment fund campaigns in the interest of the schools of medicine and: religion of the university. Attention was also called to the fact that while there has been an increase in the total assets of the university the university's needs have greatly increased and there is necessity for a larger sum for operating expenses.
The Board of Trustees appointed a committee to draft a resolution to express the great loss which the university and the board of trustees has sustained in the passing of Mr. Andrew F. Hillyer, who served so long and faithfully Howard University as a member of its board of trustees. The committee is composed of Dr. Francis J. Grimke, Justice Stanton J. Poeille, and Hon. James C. Napier.
While at the university members of the board of trustees made a tour of the grounds and a special visit to the site where the new gymnasium, armory and athletic field will be situated. The bids for the work on these development projects have recently been made and work on the laying out of the site has been commenced.
Mr. Hillyer served on the Board of Trustees of Howard University for twelve years. He graduated from the law department of Howard University in 1884. His college training was secured at the University of Minnesota.
WASHINGTON, D.C.-Howard University introduced this week a new course in its curriculum. The Elements of Physical Anthropology. The course is-being conducted by Dr. M. J. Herskovits, a student who received his training under the noted anthropologist, Dr. Frank Boas of Columbia University. The new course began on Monday, February 9, and will continue throughout the remainder of the school year. The prequisite for entering the course is nine units of collegiate work. To date, 77 students have been enrolled.

On Friday, January 30, a general membership meeting was called to order at 8.20 p. m. The meeting was opened in the usual manner by the singing of the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains," followed by the prayer, "God of the Right, Our Battles Fight." After a few remarks by the president, Mr. Flavius Wharton, the meeting was turned over to the Hon. Richard H. Bachelor, brigadier-general.
Mr. Bachelor in a few remarks made clear the object of the meeting, and read several articles and sections of the General Laws of the Constitution in support of his argument. The honorable representative forbly impressed upon the minds of the audience, that real men and women were needed to lead, and the officers were the ones to set the example in leadership. He said, "That none should accept an office unless his mind, as well as his conscience, was in the right place." At this stage all officers, seats were declared vacant for a new election. Before the nominations and elections the bradier read the path to be administered to all local officers. The Hon. R. H. Bachelor acted as chairman and Mr. W. E. Barnes as secretary pro tem. The following officers were nominated and elected: Mr. G. M. Goldon Clarke, president; W. Ellington Barnes, executive secretary; William A. Maylor, treasurer (re-elected); Samuel H. Greenle (re-elected), chairman of Trustees Board; Mr. Leonid E. Creary, first vice-president (re-elected); Mrs. Florence L. M. Whittaker, lady president and matron (re-elected); Mrs. Emilika Stropp, first lady vice-president; Mr. Flavius Wharton, chaplain; Miss Lucy King, general secretary; Miss Leonine Howard, associate secretary; Miss Alice Getfield, secretary. Trustees Board; Mr. Caleb Reid, member of Trustee Board.
Appointments: Mr. Cyril E. Arnold
captain of legion; Mr. Jonathan A.
Trought, first lieutenant, legion; Mr.
David Weeks, member of Trustee
Board, and Mr. Alexander Depoca-
member of Trustee Board.
All officers took the oath and after
a vote of thanks to the chairman and
secretary the meeting came to a close
with the singing of a verse of the
Ethiopian National Anthem.

Chicago Division No. 23 held one of the most enthusiastic and encouraging meetings at Coleman Public School it has held for some time. Mr. Sumella, the vice-president, praised in the absence of Dr. Peters, who was away on a trip to Atlanta. The program was live one from start to finish, every speaker being filled with resentment at the treatment of our chief, the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Ex-Com. W. A. Wallace aroused great enthusiasm by his earnest address. Senator Adherent Roberts, the Illinois Colored State Senator, was present and spoke for us. A great meeting will be held Friday night on the return of Dr. Peters, the president, who will then deliver the special message-from the President-General, The Black Cross Nurses Institute and juven
files are all progressing. We have the greatest band in the organization, led by Professor James. Our very faithful organist, Mrs. Gertrude Walker, is doing everything possible to develop a good choir. The drive on for our building, and one captain is lying with the others as to who shall have the honor of leading from Supday to Sunday.
SPECIAL NOTICE TO DIVISIONS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD
At this time as a protection for the officers of divisions and as a guarantee against fraud, we are requesting that every division demand credentials from any person or persons claiming to be sent from the Parent Body as Field Workers before they be permitted to speak in divisions.
Any officer violating this rule will be subject to removal from office, if notice is filed in Secretary-General's office by seven financial members of his division.

On Sunday, February 15, our general mass meeting was called to order at 7:50 p.m. by the president, Mr. P. B.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1985
CLEVELAND, OHIO
Exceptionally large meetings are being held at Liberty Hall, 7209 East 40th street. On Sunday last at 3 o'clock the house was filled to overflowing. P. E. Johnson, president, presiding: Mrs Thomas W. Fleming, wife of Councilman Fleming of Fourth Ward, was the principal speaker, and used as her theme, "Don't Rock the Boat," urging the membership to keep cooled head at this particular time, to support the organization as never before, to be loyal and endure, and so reflect the principles of Marcus Garvey, to whom we should call our husbands at the man who has done more than any other one man in the history of the world. Mrs. Fleming's remarks brought much applause, and the association membership appreciates her sincere interest. Other participants on the program were: The late vice-president, Ollie Catlett, who read the preamble of the constitution; the Honorary minister of legions, W. J. Robertson, who read Mr. Garvey's first message to the Negro peoples in the world, Ma. J. Bern Birrbour rendered a piano selection of his own composition entitled "The March of the U. N. I. A." Mme. Eugenia Mayo, noted soprano, sang most beautifully, "Sometimes I feel Like a Motherless Child," accompanied by Mr. Barbour at the 8 p.m. service standing room was at a permium, and at this time the Rev. L. V. Van Pelt of Loraine, Ohio, presided, using as his text "What Think Ye of Me?" In his discourse he portrayed the man, Marcus Garvey, as a man among men, an outstanding character, full of determination and fearless. The minister of legions also spoke at this time, brushing out the fact that Marcus Garvey has organized a most gigantic association, the influence of which is being felt far and wide, notwithstanding it is criticized even by persons who could not do likewise, that the teachings and preachings of Marcus Garvey have taught our people to realize that we are as worthy as the white man; to love our race and to prepare for future conditions. His talk was very impressive, and the audience evidenced the fact by their rapt attention. Little Master Hudson Williams gave a reading at this time on Marcus Garvey.
On Monday evening a special mass meeting was held and Dr. J. J. Peters of Chicago, was the principal speaker. Mr. B. K. Crawford, chairman of the trustee board, acted as master of ceremonies. Mr. W. J. Robertson introduced the speaker of the evening, and he in turn commended Mr. Robertson for his loyalty to the association and his continued interest, notwithstanding he has tendered his resignation as minister of legions. Dr. Peters impressed upon his hearers the necessity of sacrifice on the part of the Negro in order to achieve emancipation. He urges unity among us, and denounces amalgamation, which is being fostered by some of our race men. Dr. Peters has visited Mr. Garvey in Atlanta, and told his audience that Mr. Garvey related to him that he was greatly encouraged, because he knew that the need of emancipation which he had planted in the hearts of 400,000,000 Negroes of the would not be upset. The doctor concluded his remarks by saying, "What Garvey has done no other man can do."
Next Sunday will be observed as "New Members' Day." Come and make yourself a part of the association, and enjoy the privileges which it affords you. The Hon. F. Levi Lord, auditor general of the association, will be here again, and will be the speaker of the occasion at $ p. m. Preaching at 11 o'clock a. m., and mass meeting at 8 p. m. also. Come on time to get the choicest seats.

To the Words of The Nine Wives
To the Editor in the Negro World:
Dear Sir—We, the members of the East Liberty Division, Pittsburgh, Pa., write to perform what we consider a duty. We feel that every faithful member of the organization should express in some manner his grief at the removal of the president-general from our midst.

BOSTON, MASS.
Under the able leadership of our new president and lady president, Mr. Alexander Alkons and Mr. Ernest Headley, the Boston Division of the U. N. I. A. is progressing rapidly.
Notwithstanding the incarceration of our indomitable leader, the Hon. Marcel Garvey, the division has shown no signs of weakness, but on the contrary is growing stronger day by day. The members have all redoubled their efforts and their determination to reach the goal has become greater.
We are now saying to the world at large that the Boston Division stands 100 per cent behind our cheftain, right or wrong, in jail or out of jail, in life or in death. We shall support him to the end.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 10—As a result of American control and penetration, most of the people of Porto Rico have been turned into landless day in boreas on sugar, tobacco, and fruit plantations and allied industries. To a less degree the same is true of Cuba. This process likewise is in an earlier stage of development in Santo Domingo and Hayti. Peonage thrives in Porto Rico, and many of the people live in ville poverty.
These statements were made today by the Social Action Department of the National Catholic Welfare Conference and represent conclusions reached after a personal investigation of the four West. Indian countries for a period of two, and a half months by a representative of that organization.
"A less highly developed plantation system existed in Cuba and Porto Rico before the Americans came," continues the statement. "American business men built up this, extended it widely, bought out the foreclosed native land owners, opened up new lands and got possession of irrigated districts. They are now the dominant element in sugar and fruit in both countries, certainly the dominant element in Porto Rican tobacco and probably in Cuban tobacco.
"Porto Rican coffee has very little market in the United States and is not controlled by Americans. They have a strong inside hold in banking, but here they have able competitors, some foreign and others native.
"Porto Rico is superficially prosperous, but the masses of the people are wretched. They are landless in an agricultural country. Some of them are allowed a minute patch of ground on a plantation. In return they are expected to work on the plantation for a small wage. This is locally called peonage. Others are merely day laborers, and when there is no work on the plantations they are left to shift for themselves. They are freer than the peons, but their poverty is all the greater, for work is seasonal, and there are long stretches when no work is at hand.
"In the Dominican Republic Americans are slowly creating plantations and turning the people into day laborers, continuing it though the marines have left. Because of the sparse population there will be land left over for independent farming for some years to comp.
"Haytit is densely populated. Much of the land is mountainous or arid. Farming is primitive. Marketing is badly organized. But the people own the land themselves, and if trained in good methods of farming and market-

BASSETERR, ST. KITTS
The Basseterre Division No. 201 of the Universal Negro Improvement Association on Sunday, January 11, held a mass meeting for the purpose of commemorating the sailing of the first ship of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, the "Booker T. Washington." A goodly number of persons attended.
The meeting began with the singing of the opening ode, "Front Greenland's Ice Mountain," followed by prayer and the Ethiopian National Anthem.
The president, Mr. W. J. E., Bullier, in his opening address, welcomed the audience in the name of the officers and members of the division and asked for their continued attendance. He gave his audience information concerning the ship. In the course of his remarks he said, "According to divine instructions we should dance to the pipe of our fellowmen and lament when they lament. The C. N. L. A. is piping to you now and expects you to dance and should the time come for it to lament it expects you to do like-

ing, and if the arid plains were irrigated and owned then by small farmers, Hayti could become prosperous and the people retain their economic and social independence. "Throughout all these countries there is an pitch talk of the effect of American imperialism upon land ownership and banking as of the political right of self-government, or quasi self-government."
Supporting Race Business From the California "Eagle"
We hear vehement protest of words against business men of the white race when they from time to time begin to weed out and drop from their payrolls the members of our group. We, too, protest against it, especially so when we are strong patrons of the business firms from which they have been eliminated. Our protest, however, is only on the basis of justice and right and at no time does it extend to funding fault with a firm for dismissal of any body for failing to become proficient in their particular work.
But at that price an empty protest is all that we have to offer and behind this there is a reason, that reason is absolutely a reflection, upon the sagacity, astuteness and lack of enterprise by the members of our very own group. Prators tell you that "he who would be free must strike the first blow" we will venture the assertion if we use in the business world we must create business concerns of our own. The issue is clear and slowly but just as sure as fate places heretofore occupied by our group in many business places will fade away, and if this is not an incentive to support race business concerns we fall to understand even ourselves.
The successful business man of the white race marvels that the members of our group are lacking in concentration and co-operation and his admiration for the progress of the race thus far would be a hundred fold more were it evident that the race could demonstrate its capacity for building up business according to its numbers. The time is ripe, the opportunity at hand to concentrate along business lines, give a strong support to Negro business houses, the stronger the support-the greater business houses you will have, the more positions they will have to fill and after, all in supporting race business. You are but supporting yourselves.
We suggest that as a concentration has been made on the undertaking business, the evidence is complete as to the efficacy of the same, why not use the same concentration along any other lines of business, when we do this we will rise and build up business concerns that are really worth while, not unlike those which have been feared by the Japanese, the Greeks, the Italians, and so on.
