XVIII. No. 7 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1925 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GREATER NEW YORK SEVEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U.S.A. TEN CENTS IN POREIGN COUNTRIES HON. MARCUS GARVEY DISCUSSES PRINCIPLES OF THE U.N.I.A.; TELLS WHAT THE ORGANIZATION STANDS FOR Hon. Marcus Garvey sends greetings to the Negroes of the world and presents for their careful consideration an article on the principles of the U. N. L. A., the first installment of which follows: The Principles of the U. N. I. A. Over five years ago the Universal Negro Improvement Association placed itself before the world as the movement through which the new and rising Negro would give expression of his feelings. This Association adopts an attitude, not of hostility to other races and peoples of the world, but an attitude of self-respect, of manhood rights on behalf of 400,000,000 Negroes of the world. We represent peace, harmony, love, human sympathy, human rights and human justice, and that is why we fight so much. Wheresoever human rights are denied to any group, whereoever justice is denied to any group, there the U.N.L.A. finds a cause. And, as at this time among all the peoples of the world, the group that suffers most from injustice, the group that is denied most of those rights that belong to all humanity, is the black group of 400,000,000. True Emancipation Is the Aim Because of that injustice, because of that denial of our rights, we go forth under the leadership of the One who is always on the side of right, to fight the common cause of humanity; to fight as we fought in the Revolutionary War, as we fought in the Civil War, as we fought in the Spanish-American War, and as we fought in the war between 1914-18 on the battle plains of France and of Flanders. As we fought on the heights of Mesopotamia, even so under the leadership of the U. N. I. A. we are marshaling the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world to fight for the emancipation of the race and for the redemption of the country of our fathers. New Line of Thought We represent a new line of thought among Negroes. Whether you call it advanced thought or reactionary thought, I do not care. If it is reactionary for people to seek independence in government, then we are reactionary. If it is advanced thought for people to seek liberty and freedom, then we represent the advanced school of thought among the Negroes of this country. We of the U. N. I. A. believe that just what is good for the other folks is good for us. If government is something that is worth while; if government is something that is appreciable and helpful and protective to others, then we also want to experiment in government. We do not mean a government that will make us citizens without rights, or subjects without consideration. We mean a kind of government that will place our own in control, even as other races do in control of their own governments. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION IS THE MEDIUM THROUGH WHICH THE NEW AND RISING NEGRO EXPRESSES HIMSELF STANDS UNCOMPROMISINGLY FOR MANHOOD RIGHTS ON BEHALF OF 400,000,000 NEGROES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD NO EFFORT TO DESTROY OR DISRUPT SOCIETY OR GOVERNMENT NEGROES DETERMINED TO BUILD CIVILIZATION OF THEIR OWN WILL NOT BE DISCOURAGED BY MISUNDERSTANDING AND MISREPRESENTATION unreasonable. It was not unreasonable for George Washington, the great hero and the father of the country, to have fought for the freedom of America, giving to us this great republic and this great democracy; it was not unreasonable for the Liberals of France to have fought against the monarchy to give to the world French democracy and French republicanism; it was no unrighteous cause that led Tolstoi to sound the call of Liberty in Russia, which has ended in giving to the world the social democracy of Russia, an experiment that will probably prove to be a boon and a blessing to mankind. If it was not an unrighteous cause that led Washington to fight for the independence of this country and led the Liberals of France to establish the republic, it is, therefore, not an unrighteous cause for the U. N. I. A. to lead 400,000,000 Negroes all over the world to fight for the liberation of our country. Therefore, the U. N. I. A. is not advocating the cause of Church building, because we have a sufficiently large number of churches among us to minister to the spiritual needs of the people, and we are not going to compete with those who are engaged in so splendid a work; we are not engaged in building any new social institutions, any Y. M. C. A. or Y. W. C. A., because there are enough social workers engaged in those praiseworthy institutions. We are not engaged merely in domestic politics or in church building or in social uplift work, but we are engaged in nation building. Misunderstood and Misrepresented In advocating the principles of this Association we find we have been very much misunderstood and very much misrepresented by men from within our own race, as well as others from without. Any reform movement that seeks to bring about changes for the benefit of humanity is bound to be misrepresented by those who have always taken it upon themselves to administer to and to lead the unfortunate to lead and to direct those who may be placed under temporary disadvantages. It has been so in all other movements, whether social or political; hence, those of us in the Universal Negro Improvement Association who lead do not feel in any way embarrassed about this misrepresentation, about this misunderstanding, as far as the Aims and Objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association go. But those who probably would have taken kindly notice of this great movement have been led to believe that this movement seeks not to develop the good within the race, but to give expression to that which is most destructive and most harmful to society and to government What We Stand For Not Seeking to Disrupt We ask for nothing more than the rights of 400,000,000 Negroes. We are not seeking, as I said before, to destroy or disrupt the society or the government of other races, but we are determined that 400,000,000 of us shall unite ourselves to free our motherland from the grasp of the invader. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are determined to unite 400,000,000 Negroes for their own industrial, political, social and religious emancipation. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are determined to unite the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world to give expression to their own feeling; we are determined to unite the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world for the purpose of building a civilization of their own. And in that desire we desire to bring together the 15,000,000 of the United States, the 180,000,000 in the West Indies and Central and South America and the 200,000,000 in Africa. We are looking toward political freedom on the continent of Africa, the land of our fathers. Two Chicago Friends Call the Editor of the Newspaper to Account and Show Him the Wrong He Has Done Mr. Garvey and the Negro Race to the Editor of The Negro Worlds. A cartoon of large dimensions of a black man behind the barra, with only the white of his eye balls to be seen out of a dark background. This in a newspaper supposed, to be fighting the battle for Negroes. A paper having protested against the caricature of Negroes by the barra, made a large through the barra shows, in the image with cartoons (such as Uncle Tom's Cabin) fame); having complained of lynching, burning and general injustice in the Southland, this name "World's Greatest Weekly" now takes up the cudis of vicious fear and adopts the same tactics of white psychology to bellittle, degrade, beimch, separate and disburse those of the members of the same race, though the editor and proprietor of this name "World's Greatest Weekly" be as black as the man his paper pokes fun. And this man, as it is well known, is in prison, not because of any crime he committed, but because of the venomous envy and dishonesty of Negroes, who could not control or use him, nor were able to organize Negroes, as he has done, for the purpose of doing something for themselves. Negres who were no eager to get Marcus Garvey out of the way and destroy the powerful organization built up by him, that they prepared an outrageous petition clamoring for his deportation and the dissolution of the Ui. N. I. A., and forwarded the same to the United States Attorney-General. Seven of them signed it, Garvey's personal enemies; and of all that notorious saven, only one lived outside of New York at that time, and that one was the editor of the "World's Greatest Weekly," the solems itself the governor of the rice, that man now in its conception of racial consciousness that it goes out of its way to endeavor to besmirch one of its own members, who has done more to awaken the Negro to his own power in the world, and bring fear and trembling to his enemies than all of the other Negroes combined. It sounds like the prattle of an imbecile to proclaim the headquarters of the U. N. I. A. at Atlanta, Ga. when out from the offices. In New York the work so well-planted by Marcus Garvey goes on as though he were present, and the members everywhere rally to the program of the U. N. I. A. as the only one to bring emancipation for the Negro everywhere. With our women crucified on the cross of the passions of members of the white race, our man hung upon the gallows of their prejudice, and our race murdered on the altar of their greed and avarice, yet the Chicago Defender finds time to stoop to the level of a common mud-slinger and try to dirty up the greatest Negro personality the world today knows. With our race crying for justice everywhere in America, West Indies, Hayt, Philippines and Africa, with brutal Infringement upon our rights in all localities, the Defender seeks to bring about further division of our ranks and lessen our strength for constructive action, by using its great circulation as a medium to vent personal spite and abuse its opportunity for good. May the God in heaven help us and save us from misguided friends, and awkward 'them' from their dreams of amalgamation and assimilation, bring them into a racial 'consciousness through' which they will realize that the Negro must come together if he expects to win for himself better things and conditions. And, instead of trying to win for himself, he U, X, I, L, let them, get on the job watchfulness to protect the perpetuity of the race and safeguard the interests of our women by familiarizing themselves with such facts that not only is "Glande Removed in One Day" le the Amazing Statement of a 76- Year-Old Veteran Lose sight, demeaned glands and nerves, and that weak, worn-out, depressed and longer since the discovery of Kandé Pamur- nay, the ancestor of the present-day "premature old" to the ancient "prematured" and regulate the " vital form of pity." Most in the world, the most of all, who has the amazing selflessness of one who has to bring "removed pity" and "wrought downwards where everything else had been done." one State trying... to pass prohibitive laws against inter-marriage, but that Union have deprived you of that citizenship right by adopting such laws. These are things that will be more worthy of the pen and power of the "World's Greatest Weekly" than endeavoring to weaken; frighten or discourage thousands of us who have determined in our hearts, and souls that only Negro men shall be our leaders who stand for Negro liberty, opportunity and preservations everywhere. "Live or die, survive or perish, we fight it out on this line." As it was with Patrick Henry and the American white man, so it is with Marcus Garvey and the U. N. I. As "Give us liberty or give us death." And the soonest such as the "World's Greatest Weekly" awakens to this and throws off its white psychology and seeks to advance Negro self-assertion and joins with Marcus Garvey and the U. N. I. A to put over a program of racial cohesion and aspiration everywhere for the betterment, improvement and protection of Negroes, the sooner will not only Africans in Africa come into their own, but Africans in America and everywhere as well. W. A. WALLACE. 3638 Indiana avenue, Chicago, Ill. Mr. A. Bewell of the Chicago Division has sent the Editor of The Negro World a copy of an article he has sent to the editor of the Chicago Defender, dealing with the brutal cartoon appearing in that newspaper. The article is as follows: "My attention has been called to your paper, 'The Chicago Defender,' issued under the date of March 14, containing a cartoon headlined, 'Atlanta Headquarters, of the U. N. I. A.' and just under the headline of the cartoon itself, the name 'Marcus Garvey.' The cartoon shows two supposed eyes peering through the darkness, and two hands gripping the hars of the prison cell. Above this cage are signs reading thus: "General Sherman had nothing on me. He marched through Georgia, I stopped at Atlanta." "Office hours, 1925 to 1930." "Drop small change here," "Back to Africa at reduced rates," "See Uncle Sam as to why I moved my office to Atlanta" and "Black Star Line selling time as soon as I get out of here." "Since seeing this cartoon, I have been very busy thinking, trying to picture just what kind of man one could be who would make himself responsible through his own paper. The World's Greatest Weekly," a Negro paper, for such a display of stupidity and resolution of ignorance as to produce a cartoon in an effort to own this own righthand in the cases of intelligent people, for certainly the cartoon will never reflect dishonor upon Maruse Garvey. Such a captain, Mr. Editor, may amuse some very small people, like yourself, but I can insure you that the majority of the decent, clean people, race-loving Negroes, look upon your cartoon with disdain and upon you as a more shadow of a man, Mr. Editor, do you know that you cannot discredit and dishonor one Negro without yourself, in 'Negro, belge proportionately discredited and dishonored? When you attempt to make light of, and poke fun at the Negro, Marcel Garvey, a superior, at least your equal, you add to your face. You, Mr. Editor, should know that it is not only 'Mr. Garvey you would humilate, but your race and yourself as well. If white paper should have produced this same cartoon about another Negro than Mr. Garvey, you, Sir, no doubt would have been one of the first editors to attack it; you, Sir, are not only guilty of this same act for which you would condemn others, but by the production of this cartoon you have gained the condemnation of decent Negroes and decent whites as well. You, Mr. Editor, should know that you are, but a Negro and accordingly have everything in common with the Negro race. If the race goes up, you go up with it; if down, you also fail. I very much fear that it is men of your type who will be responsible for the retrogression of the race if that unfortunate time should come. You should not think that because you are an editor you can with propriety produce cartoons in derision, and make light of any Negro whose work you are not in accord with to the satisfaction of the public. Your very dignified cartoon, I take, Sir, not to mean so much of discredit to Mr. Garvey as a reflection and stigma upon the Negro race. A reader of your paper for many years, I am now coming to feel a disgust for it, for from time to time you use proving yourself to be an agitator, a contentious and an obstruction to our rules of conduct, rather than a constructive power and builder. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1936 PRESIDENT KING, OF LIBERIA, WHO REPUDIATED HIS AGREEMENT WITH THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION FOR BUILDING UP LIBERIA FOR THE BLACK RACE NQW "HONORED" BY FRANCE AND ENGLAND PRESIDENT KING, OF LIBERIA, WHO REPUDIATED HIS AGREEMENT WITH THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION FOR BUILDING UP LIBERIA FOR THE BLACK RACE NQW "HONORED" BY FRANCE AND ENGLAND Charles Dunbar King, President of the Black Republic of Liberia, has been rewarded for his amazingly indecent treatment to the UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION, which was to assist in the building up of a great Liberia for the Black Race. For denying his own agreement with the organization and for blocking the progress of Africa in general, and Liberia in particular, President King has been "honored" by France and England, the two greatest imperialist countries in the world with their millions of black "subjects." France has made him a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, in other words, has "knighted" him, and the English sent a gunboat to escort him and his wife from Liberia to Sierra Leone, a British "colony" on the West Coast of Africa, where he was received with "equality" by the Governor. Surely President King will go down in history as the betrayer of our race and Africas Time was when the native African was induced to part with his valuables, his gold and diamonds and ivory, in exchange for red handkerchiefs and beads. And in the year 1925, when Africa is waking from her slumber, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to fool even the most simple-minded, an "intellectual" black would lose his soul, if only he gain a title and a ride in a warship. Surely Charles Dunbar King will go down unhonored and unsung by black men. Although advised to the contrary, I had faith enough in the man to believe that he would not have sold his race for the usual flattery, but, lo and behold, the thing has happened. Thanks, however, to the youth of the race, the light is still on. Black men will yet be free men. The cry of "Africa for the Africans" will not be made in vain. HAITIAN APPEAL TO SECRETARY OF STATE KELLOGG To Hon. Mr. Pelloge, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C. Sir, I have been requested by the Patriotic Union of Ithil and the Haitian people as a whole to congratulate you on your appointment to the premiership of this country. From the mere fact that you have been chosen by President Colloquio to fill this important office, we are convinced that you will apply a new Caribbean polley, which will hasten the end of our sufferings. For last ten years we have had the occupation in the island, countless orders, have been committed in the name of the American people without their knowing anything about it. Those who are responsible have tried to make us pass for a lot of avagues. The poor country people are sometimes forced to disguise themselves as cannibals and to suffer themselves thus to be photographed. Afterward, these horrible pictures of our people are sent over here for the purposes of disgery us. Twenty-five high schools have been closed throughout the country. And the press has been gagged to such an extent that a journalist dares not raise a voice to denounce misapprehension of public funds or exactions of any kind by our present masters, least he is arrested and thrown into jail, where he is subjected to all kinds of sufferings and humiliations. Since the landing of the occupation in Haiti, it has snuffed out over 5,000 lives. To justify that barbarous act, the victims were said to have been Brigands, or Cazes, in the dialect of the country. Likely, those who wish to have the occupation remain in the island indefinitely, will endeavor to persuade you to believe that it is necessary for the maintenance of peace. Quite probably they will tell you that we have a president. Yes, we have; but he was appointed by High Commissioner Russell, despite the protestations of the entire nation. He is nothing more than a tool in the hands of the latter, which he uses to give legal appearances to all his misdeeds. Mr. Borio (the name of the de facto president) is not even an Haitian; he is but a French subject, who deserved his flag during the World War. Whenever they make a loan they divide the amount by paying themselves fabulous sums. Practically every petty officer owns an expensive car. They will tell you about roads that have been built; but they were built through hard labour, by our peasants and prisoners, without one cent of pay. They will tell you about the presidential palace; but it was almost completed when the occupation landed in Haiti. The people are starving, while the members of the occupation are living in luxury. We are not at all disturbed by the untrue things they will not fall to tell hood at my command your cartoon, so despitefully displayed against Mr. Garvey in this issue of the 14th last, against a Negro who has insisted so much in trying to arouse in the Negro a spirit of self-help, of feeling so worth consciousness, while fear, for the dire condition of your race, would marrione so much as one drop of sweat from your forehead. The "Cotton Farmer" Says President Coolidge Should Pardon Marcus Garvey From the Cotton Farmer, Miss., Feb. 21 This cotton plantation paper holds no brief for Marcus Garvey, is not a member of the organization of which he is "Provisional President of Africa," and we never expect to be to the editor has always believed that while Marcus' intentions were good, he was and is mistaken in the remedy for the file, some real and some supposed, with which our race is afflicted, and that he could-use his great talents to a better purpose in the American. He was convicted some time, time since and he regained in fall, not being allowed bond for some time pending an appeal, to which he was plainly entitled. He was finally allowed bond while the higher courts were considering his case. Now the court of appeals has sustained the sentence and he must now serve five years in the pendulum. He was also paid a fine of one thousand dollars for the fraudulent use of the mails. Now doubleslave Marcus in his zeal to have a ship owned by "miggers" and flying some sort of a raig, did technically violate the postal laws. It is passing strange, however, with as many men we have, who have robbed we "niggers" out of our lodges money, grand lodge money, bank deposits, insurance and even the floor treasure of the church and lost it playing craps down at Mister Mamle Crawford's and now strutting around with stove pipe hats, diamonds and silk shirts, that Marcus should be singled out, for using the mala to defraud niggers. Who is it so solicitous about "ingrigs" not being robbed, and what are their real motives? There is a rat in the meal tub and the cat will soon catch him. One thing about Garvey and his gang, they are not fussing with white folks in an effort to associate with them. They are not with hat in hand begging the white folks for money for them to have a "talking meeting" to save the race, and they are not fussing with white folks about the man's skina, but were trying to have the man come even if he failed. President Coolidge would do the right thing, he would pardon or parole Garvey. It would be best to pardon him for they would frame up on him we fear. Now, whether President Coolidge has the courage to march Dan Garvey in the face of the opposition of that element of northern hoiled shirt, white collared, "colored curb statesmen, who never have done a thing but have talking meetings, at the expense of some white philanthropist, and yearn for the day to come when they could entirely divorce themselves from their own race and associate with white folks," is very doubtful to the mind of this cotton plantation paper. Gayvay and his wife have been to the United States—this enemy pursuers and time will prove it. you; because we know that you will be fair to us and your utmost to better our exacting conditions, which are unbearable. I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant. Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN Say "Bayer Aspirin" INSIST!

DETROIT DIVISION STAGED GREAT MASS MEETING From the Detroit Mirror, March 4 The Detroit Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association staged the biggest and best mass meeting that has ever been staged in the city of Detroit on Garvey Day, March 1, at Turner Hall. The hall was packed to its capacity by Negroes who came to pay homage to the greatest Negro who ever lived. The Hon. Marcus Garvey." The association has set apart the first Sunday of every month as Garvey Day, and Negroes all over the world shall respect this day. Marcus Garvey founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the purpose of bettering Negroes' conditions, financially, educationally, religiously, commercially, politically and industrially. The objective of the association also is to build on the continent of Africa a super-government for the protection and representation of all Negroes regardless of nationality. He succeeded in six years in organizing six million Negroes, and because of this enemies of Negro liberty have sought to destroy him; but, ah, how little do they know that Marcus Garvey cannot be destroyed and the seed that he has planted will bear fruit even a thousand years hence. Negroes are determined more than ever to resolem their motherland, Africa, and build thereon a government for Negroes. The evil designs and machinations of France and Britain have sought to kill the seed of Negro Nationalism; but have they succeeded? No, a thousand times no. They have added immensely to the work of African redemption. They thought that by sending Marcus Garvey to jail they would have been able to destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association; but instead we Negroes who were not even an sympathy with the Ideals and ideas of Marcus Garvey are now coming in the Universal Negro Improvement Association so much so that we believe "that Marcus Garvey in Jail is more powerful than Marcus. Garvey out of jail." The outrage done to Marcus Garvey shall form a splendid chapter in Negro history that will give-them inspiration to go on and build for their posterity. The program rendered on Sunday is one not to be forgotten. Among those who addressed the meeting were Drs. Stewart, Rainwater and I. A. Moors; Rev. McDuffie, Hon. Fred Williams, ex-president of the Detroit branch of the N. A. A. C. P., and Rev. Joseph Gomes, pastor of the Bethel A. M. E. Church. His resolution was unanimously passed to be sent to the Hon. Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States of America, requesting eleency for our leader, Marcus Garvey. These men spoke with eloquence of the good work Marcus Garvey has done and is doing, and they dedicate themselves to the working of the U. N. I. A. The keynote was touched when Rev. Gomes said that W. R. P. DuBols and his cohorts were responsible for the incarceration of Marcus Gervey. Whites men, he said, were accustomed to pick Negro leaders, so much so that the mayor of Detroit is trying to try a leader for the Negroes of Detroit, but the three has come when Negroes will no longer tolerate any hand-picked leaders. As Roy Gomes pictures Rufus Gervey of the way to Atlanta hand-picked to white mariners, how the pay-for way to the trade who bribed, and as he now and now we are in God's hand, I have no doubt we are in Gervey, and we have no doubt we are in the same way as the men who have been in Gervey. FOR SOME SELF-DETERMINATION The Question Is Up to Congress, but Unless Those Interested Work Early and Later There Will Be Nothing Done to Give the Islanders More Self-Determination in Their Affairs Only two weeks ago at the local lecture forum of the New York Board of Education, the question of the Virgin Islands came up for discussion, growing out of the lecture on the problems flow facing the Sixty-ninth Congress. Among those, in the audience were many men and women from the islands, and their questions and comments helped to shed additional light on the subject, as presented by Dr. Hubert Harrison, the Board of Education's well known lecturer on the trend of the times. One of the most significant features of the lecture forum was the way in which all the Negroes present made their matter and were just as deeply interested in the moment of the Virgin Islanders as they were in the Senate Bilbuster against the anti-lynching bill. The subject was sufficiently aired for the public opinion of Negro-Harrison to blow through it. And the white portion of the audience also seemed to enjoy the discussion and handling of the subject. This local and timely interest, in the Virgin Islands on the part of New York-Negroes is to be utilised by the Virgin Jatlands Congressional Council, which proposed in the very near future to secure the services of Dr. Harrison for a public lecture on the same subject, the proceeds to go to the educational fund by which the young students from the Virgin Islands are supported at Hampton Institute, Virginia. But the timeliness of the topic is not merely-local. Certain recent reevaluations of the President Coolidge on March 4 seemed to have been made with an eye on recent developments in the Virgin Islands. The President expressed hope and good will in that unique state document with so much fervor and sincerity that it gives encouragement to our people to persevere in their efforts to abolish naval, government in only added thousands of members to the U. N. I. A. by sending Garvey to Atlanta, because men who have never thought of the organization before have told him that owing to the injustice done to Marcus Garvey they will from now and forevermore support the ideals of Garvey, both morally and financially. The lawyer's statement to the press of injustice done to Marcus Garvey and Marcus Garvey's Message to Negroes of the World were read by the executive secretary, Mr. J. A. Cralgen, with "amphibians and clearness, and tears from many eyes, were visible." There is a question of supreme importance that should be seriously weighed by every well-thinking member of the Race, more especially as their attention is being daily engaged in the progress of prejudice, discrimination, Jim-crowlain, segregation, and disfranchisement whose colossal magnitudes are self-evident. We cannot doubt the fact that the teachings of Marcus Garvey will change conditions which have stood for centuries in the world. Nothing happens to any people without God's cognizance and permission, thus the wicked acts of men He often turns to glory. God allowed us to be taken from our quiet, homes in Africa. Like the children of Israel who-groaned under Egyptian bondage for over four hundred years, God in His inscrutate wisdom also permitted the sons and daughters of Ham to be brought to the Western Hemisphere of bondage, and during this period of time Marcus Garvey was born to shape the Negroes' destiny. When some future historians shall take up their pens to jot down notes in comparing the rise, progress and decline of nations of the times, there will also arise in the horizon of their dark past, the brilliances which shall blend the then existing glare of the fast rising meteors which shall dot the celestial dome of the canopy of existence in one harmonising whole as to illuminate with inexpressible brightness the pathway of their march from a land of alvish bondage to the dignity of a noble nation and a potential people. Yes, when Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto God and Mgrcus Garveys' idealism and dream shall be realized. the Virgin Islands, and win for their inhabitants the status of citizens of the United States. For these things we look to Congress. But the last Congress was faced with 18,000 legislative, bills in the course of two sessions on all sorts of subjects, and if we want results we must go up and if we want results we must go up and must be brought to beat upon Congress so that they may know that the people of the Virgin Islands are disposed to ask that the government preserve its own self-respect by redeeming the promise which it made in 1917 when it took over the islands. Already there is a bill before the Senate, presented by Senator McLean of Connecticut, which, if passed, would provide a civil government for the Virgin Islands and American organic law for the people. But the hands of the Senator should be unheld. If Virgin Islands' here and in the islands were to write him by scores and by hundreds, urging him to incorporate in the bill the changes already suggested by the Congressional bill, the bill would cease to slumber in committee, and would soon be up for a hearing. At such a hearing the people of the Virgin Islands would have a chance to be heard on the merits of the changes which they feel that they have a right to ask of Congress in the form of government, and in other vital details of the management of the Colonial administration. The only organization which has been especially created for this particular task is the Virgin Islands Congressional Council, which for three years now has been holding its crowded meetings at Lafayette Hall, on the second and third Sunday of each month. Its program, however, is not restricted to Congressional action, but includes educational, economic and social self-help. Branches of this organization are about to be established in the Virgin Islands, where the inhabitants have been in position to study their methods and results and compare their results in the same field. The council has always held out a friendly hand to every other organized group, and still continues to do so. That is one of the reasons why it has so many friends, even among those on the outside. The greatness of its venture has saved it from petty selfishness and mean spite into existence for the good of all people from the Virgin Islander. When the time comes and its objects shall be then realized on behalf of those objects will then be utilized for those objects, which will then have become more pressing and urgent. In the meanwhile, the Council does the work of clarifying the conscience of the country and the Congress on the rights and wrongs, of Uncle Sam's latest necropsy and nephews.

Two Letters The first written twenty years ago, the second recently by Mrs. J. H. Dowland, Franklin, Towns. "For twenty-three years I was a constant sufferer" from chronic catarrh. I had a severe misery and burrowing in the top of my head, a throat clipping of mucus into my throat and tortoration. My entire system became involved and I grew worse. It seemed as if I could not recover from a constant cough and frequent attacks of billion coli. My bronchus were affected, causing my cough to become more severe and many remedies and finally took over. As a few days I was relieved of my bowel trouble and completely cured by fire baths. I most charitably recommended For-wu." June 20, 1916, Mrs. Browland writes applicant. "I will can be devoted thirty years of and order and skillful for one of my wife. I will recommend her well and she is my friend, when died." Mrs. Browland left a memory floating in her mind, of each time she met and served for the army in the command of the army.

Bourne Tells of Satisfaction of Claims Against Liberty Hall—No Danger of Its Being Sold LIBERTY HALL, New-York, Sunday Night, March 22.—The drawing power of the Universal Negro Improvement Association continues to manifest itself in the great and ever-increasing crowds of people who throng Liberty Hall Sunday night after Sunday night, despite the fact that the leader and moving spirit of the organization, Marcus Garvey, is removed from the scene of activities. Like faithful disciples of a worthy cause, the followers of the organization having completely recovered from the temporary shock which they suffered when the law laid-hands on their leader and threw him into prison where it was thought his influence would end, are tenaciously sticking to the organization which has been given to them, are supporting it with every ounce of their energy and making it a stronger organization than it was heretofore. Judged by the nature of things, the imprisonment of Marcus Garvey has done more for the Universal Negro Improvement Association than any other single act could have accomplished, for it has proven to the world that Negroes, like other races of people, can stick together and fight together even when the odds are against them and adversity stares them in the face. The meeting tonight was full of enthusiasm and every one was cheered by the message sent by Mr. Garvey and delivered to Liberty Hall by his wife, expressing confidence in his followers and complimenting them on the splendid way in which they were rallying to the movement. Hon. Percival L. Burrows, Assistant Secretary-General, presided over the meeting and the speakers were Mr. Francis N. Quattell, a member of the Port-of-Spain (Trinidad) Division, who has been transferred to the U. N. L. A. headquarters, Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey and Hon. C. S. Bourne, the Chancellor. Mr. Quattell, in his maiden speech, made quite an impression and declared that the redemption of Africa was a certainty if the followers of the organization persisted in rallying to the standard of the Red, the Black and Green, following their leaders and contributing generously to the organization. Mrs. Garvey, whose charming oratory has endeared her in the hearts of the Liberty Hall audience, was given, a warm reception when she rose to speak. She sounded a warning to Negroes everywhere of the doom which awaited the race if they did not, at this time, organize themselves, keep organized and lay for themselves a sound economic foundation. The world, she said, has undergone a chance. Since the World War the statesmen of every nation were so arranging affairs as to take care of the interests of their particular group, and it was for the Negro to follow suit and make-provision for the perpetuation of the race or face inevitable extermination. Hon. C. S. Bourne spoke briefly and informed the members that a satisfactory settlement had been made with the claimants against the organization whose claims had placed Liberty Hall in jeopardy of being sold. He thanked the members for the support they had given in bringing about this result and assured them that their interests were being carefully guarded by the men who were in charge of the affairs of the organization Following is the text of the speeches: MR. F. X. QUATTELL SPEAKS The first speaker was Mr. Francis X. Quattell, until recently a member of the Port of Spain (Trinidad) Division. Mr. Quattell drew a vivid word picture of the horrors of slavery, tracing its history from the day when John Hawkins, of Plymouth, England, landed on the coast of Guinea in Africa and commenced the abomitable traffic, selling for a pittance the native Afri- CATARRH STOPPED IN ONE DAY Hawking, *splitting*, choking *Catarach* and *Bronchial*, *Anatina*, *Head*, *Nibes* and the needles need not be drowned any longer. "Now it is possible for those who suffer from this disease one day's time with the W.-R. Formula," is an amazing statement of one who has taken the necessary steps. Formula is bringing joyous new health and life, where everything else had failed. "I want to say that my Catarach was absolutely stopped the first day," says P. A. L. Hewitt. "My nose was continually filled up, causing my head to be stopped up. I was not entirely hawking and spitting and was a source of great embarrassment before and after and misty, but I was now enthusiastic and joyful, and I was going left the day after that this result was treated called W. Formula, and I feel God gave me." The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. cans, who were there transported as slaves to different parts of the world. That disgraceful blot and stain on the annals of the human race, he said, will not be erased until the plans of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, under the indefultigible leadership of Hon. Marcus Garvey, for the redemption of Africa, shall have been executed. The redemption of Africa, he said, is the only event that can annot for the atrocious crimes committed on the Negro, and he predicted that the day will come in the not distant future, when the Negro will occupy a seat at the League of Nations or some other tribunal of the world and demand that an indemnity be paid to the Negro for the humiliation, disgrace and atrocities that have been committed" upon him; and he foresaw that tribunal reaching the unanimous decision that England immediately and unconditionally surrender her African possessions; to the Universal Negro improvement Association as indemnity to the Negro race. Victim of a Plot The hero leader, Marcus Carvey, the speaker said, was thrown into prison because he dared proclaim the truth and because he manifestly practiced the actual truth at every available opportunity, and tonight he stands behind the barn of Atlanta prison, the innocent victim of disgraceful international plot. The African Patriotic Spirit During his association with the activities of the Universal Negro Impro- vement Association, Mr. Quaiteli said, he will pre-eminently keep before the members of the normalization, Africa and things African; for he wished to foster that great love for Africa. As the American is willing to die for America; as the Negroman is over willing to die for his country; as the German is willing to die for the father- land, so also must the Negro live for Africa, cherish the name of Africa in theRepository of the heart, and pro- vide Morgan Gougery as our leader, our president, our king, and our sult, and for our willing to any moment to cherish Africa. What We Can Achieve Challenge. We promise that that we fight it really and fight it to Nigro blood hospital, surgery, pain. the altar of greed that has brought about the monstrous achievement of building the mighty British Empire That being so, what he inquired, can we of our own free will accomplish if we shall only rally around the standard of the Red, the Black, and the Green, follow our leaders, and contribute generously to the organization? Can we not be able to accomplish the redemption of Africa as our greatest achievement? Laying a Commercial Foundation If Africa is to be redeemed by the Negro, Mr. Quattell said, we must begin by laying a substantial commercial foundation. Commerce is the foundation upon which nations have been built, and when our leader Marvin Gauley called for ships and more ships he was perfectly correct, but ships without proper provision for their intenance are unsuccessful. He urged therefore that the members of the organization give their unstinted support to the steamship proposition launched by the organization, for it was the means whereby the Negro would become a factor in the commercial world and be recognized as such by the other nations of the world. MRS. AMY JACQUES GARVEY SPEAK$ Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey was the next speaker. She said she differed with the previous speaker when he hoped that some day the British people would be so overcome with retribution for all the atrocities they have committed against the Negro that they would voluntarily turn over to the Universal Negro Improvement Association the colonies which they now hold. That would be a most Christian and altruistic act, she said, but we all know that in this world of materialism—in the Struggle for superiority and the survival of the fittest, there is no Christian, moral or ethical purpose, holdin the actions of any nation. It is merely a question of bread and butter—every man for himself, and the Negro, therefore, must look out for himself, England existed, she said, on the raw products which she was able to get from the outside world, and it was the black subjects in the British possessions that were feeding the English people. They would starve and if they could not get raw material to manufacture, and the English people are not going to turn over to their African possessions so easily. Some terrible catastrophe would have to happen before they would do that. It was for the Negro, therefore, to look out for himself, and that is the reason why Marcus Garvey sounded the toosin six years ago throughout the world telling the darker people to look out for themselves or they will be exterminated from this earth. It is evident, to the average person that if the Negro, does not organize and keep organized, and place himself on a good economic foundation, he will starve to death and be eliminated altogether. That is a situation that every one should realize and provide against. It is not a question that concerns the American Negro or the West Indian Negro or the African Negro, but it concerns the Negro everywhere, and, therefore, the Negro must hold hands and hearts together and work toward one solution of the Negro problem. A Changed World Since the World War the world has undergone a change. Statesmen are arranging the world so as to take care of their own particular group, and it was for the Negro to organize himself to take care of his particular LOST VIGOR RESTORED OFTEN IN 24 HOURS Amazing Results Secured In One Day By Use of Lifex Lost vigor, nervous disability, and that weak worn out good for some feeling need not be of Lifex compound.

Outside of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, where are the statesmen of our race who are looking out for the future of the race? All of the men that have been criticizing and abusing Murcus Garvey—what are they doing to take care of the Negroes of the world in an economic, industrial or political way? They are doing absolutely nothing but making provisions to protect their own personal interests. The other races of the world have laid and are laying plans for their own protection and it is for the Negro race to have its own program and its own leaders to take care of its interests. Such a program the Universal Negro improvement Association has laid, and it behooves every Negro to shoulder his responsibility and join in this great universal movement that has for its object the protection of Negroes everywhere. Mr. Garvey's Message Continuing, Mrs. Garvey said she received on the previous day a telegram from Mr. Garvey conveying a message to Liberty Hall. It read as follows: "Congratulations and best wishes to Liberty Hall for the solendid work being done. I feel that I can depend upon them for the perpetuation of the cause." She also received a special delivery letter from him in which he said: "If I remain in prison long enough, when I come out I will give a new thought to the world." This statement, Mrs. Garvey said, struck her as being significant. Marus Garvey's enemies thought that by putting him behind the bars and branding him as a jail bird and a convict as he had been caricatured in some of the Negro newspapers, would make him feel disgusted with life and if they did not do away with him he would do away with himself. But it has happened differently. Marus Garvey is behind the bars. It is true, but he is studying; he says he read nightly until the lights go out and is in the library of the prison every day. He believes that his imprisonment was arranged by Providence so that he would have the opportunity to concentrate and make larger plans for the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and the Marus Garvey that comes out of prison will be more powerful and will be a man of deeper thought than the Marus Garvey so that went into prison. Can't Cage the Spirit Mrs. Garvey warned the members of the organization not to be downhearted. Let the enemies think they have put over anything on us because they have not done so far as Marcus Garvey is concerned. The only thing, said she, that would make Mr. Garvey Litter is the feeling that after preaching the gospel for six years he had not made any disciples. But it is fact that he has created disciples and the Spirit of Garveyism is rampant: "You may bat the tiger, but you don't bag his spirit." This tiger is not a mere animal; it is a spiritual being called the Universal Negro Improvement Association and it cannot be bagged. She implored the members of the organization to carry on the work; to read good books pertaining to the race and gather all the knowledge they can, and, in conclusion, she made a special appeal to the women of the organization to support their men and give them encouragement in all they do to promote the interests of the organization. HON. C. S. BOURNE SPEAKS Hon. C. S. Bourne is the next speaker. Alluding to the efforts which had been exerted by the enemies to jeopardize the interests of the organization in so far as depriving it of its ownership of Liberty Hall, he was glad to inform the members that a satisfactory settlement had been made and there was no more danger of losing title to the Liberty Hall property. For this he was grateful for the splendid co-operation of the members of the New York Local and also the members' of the outside divisions. The enemies of the organization, he said had demonstrated their weakness in handing themselves together to fight the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Unfortunately 75 per cent. of the individuals who are fighting the organization are Negroes like ourselves, and it was pathetic to think that some Negroes were endeavoring to frustrate the plans of the organization when it is considered that. If the Universal Negro Improvement Association succeeds every Negro must succeed. He wanted to tell the enemies that they have failed absolutely in their purpose to destroy the organization, for today it is stronger than it was before. They thought that by taking away our leader, Marzus Garvey, they had succeeded, but we are giving them the lie. Marzus Garvey's physical body might be in prison in Atlanta, but his spirit stands on the platform of every one of the 367 Divisions throughout the world; from the prison he has given an impetus to the carrying on of the work.

March 16- An interesting feature of the inter-racial movement in the South has been the organization at inter-racial student groups in a number of college centers, by which white and colored students are brought together at regular intervals for the exchange of views and the promotion of understanding. The results have been gratifying in every case. Misapprehension have been cleared up, knowledge has taken the place of running and preconception, and confidence and good will have supplanted suspicion and prejudice. The following story shows how the plan works. At an early meeting this year of the Atlanta group, made up of students from three white and three colored colleges, the question of higher education for Negroes was raised. One white student very frankly said that he did not believe in it, he thought it unnecessary and undesirable. He was asked to bring it at the succeeding meeting a paper in support of his view, while a colored student was asked to prepare a paper on the other side.

Perhaps it will have to be in that way that they must continue to be accomplished. Supreme Court President-General Garvey's hopefulness, his disposition to look on the bright side and labor to make it possible where it does not appear, is as the breath of life to the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. They are convinced that they have a leader who has ideas and courage, and that inspires them to trust him and labor for the success of his ideas. In the last issue of The Negro World, President-General Garvey, in his front page article, among other helpful and encouraging things, said: "It is true that twentieth century materialism has so scattered the interested races and nations that the realization of human ideals becomes remote, but we dare not sink or destroy holy principles because of the wantonness and soullessness of our age. Time cannot save itself; it is for us to save and reduce Time; hence, the work that lies before us is not so much to identify ourselves with the scattered purpose and greed of others as it is to create for ourselves a central ideal and make our lives conform to it in the singling out of a racial life that shall know no end. "It is unfortunate that we should find ourselves at this time the only disorganized group. Others have had the advantage of organization for centuries, so what seems unnecessary to them from a racial standpoint becomes necessary to us who have had to labor all along under the disadvantage of being scattered without a racial aim or purpose. "No race or people can well survive without an aim or purpose. We must know beforehand the progress of our existence. Our racial program of today is a united, emancipated and improved people. We need improvement in every line—socially, religiously, industrially, educationally and politically. We need the creation of a common standard among ourselves that will fit us for companionship and equitable competition with others." We shall gain but little by calarging upon the viewpoint presented here by President-General Garvey; we shall gain much by a close study of what he says. We can accomplish nothing without a purpose, and when we know what we want and are united in the thought and effort to get it, we are more likely to get it than not. Stand firm. Be of one mind. Labor for the given purpose. That is the business of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and it is Big Business. THE TEST OF INDIVIDUAL WORTH WE are all on earth for something which it is our business to find out before the first twenty years roll by. Maybe we didn't ask to come, but it is up to us to make the best of it while we are here. Many times folks get the "blues" and ask themselves this question: "Why must I endure all this trouble and how can I stand it?" Your troubles may be sad enough, but remember, you are not the first one on the record. You may have an unknown comrade who arrived in the world at the same time you did. His troubles may be ten times worse. The only sensible thing to do is to grin and bear it, as grinning does much more good than crying. Always laugh when you can: it is the cheaper medicine. Merriment is not well understood as being the sunny side of human existence. There are folks who bring things to pass and are proud of their achievements. We cannot blame them. We all have a certain reserve of chest expansion. There are people who put on a few "lugs" because they have done something worth-while with their earnings. Just because we have not been judicious in the spending of our earnings why be jealous of those who have been? We are prone to criticize when things do not go to suit us. It is easy to say, "I'm all right, the world's all wrong," but it is a hard proposition for us to straighten out our own affairs. If the other fellow goes you one better at anything give him a pat on the back that comes from your heart and wish him well; there is no charge. Some of us after arriving in this beautiful world have not found out definitely what we are here for, but that does not hinder us from encouraging the fellow who knows his mission and tries to live up to it.

LET'S PUT IT OVER THE ASSOCIATION UNITEDLY FRONTS THE WORK TO BE DONE THOSE who expected that "when the shepherd was taken the flock would be scattered" have been greviously disappointed. From all parts of the world we have received information that the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association not only stand firmly together to further the work of the Association, but a great many have expressed a willingness to serve the term of imprisonment of President-General Marcus Garvey, as his freedom would mean more helpfulness to the race than theirs. "Greater love lath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." President-General Garvey has done that for many, and it is unusual and gratifying to find that there are so many, who stand ready to do even so for him. The members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association show a similar devotion to their organization as the followers of Mahatma Gandhi, the great East Indian leader, show to him and his organization, and a willingness to deny themselves and sacrifice their personal interests and freedom for him which has no parallel in history, as far as we know. When the supreme hour in the life of Jesus came only one man of the multitude and a few women stood by the Cross. A man who can inspire that kind of devotion is to be reckoned with, even though he were dead. The united membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association fronts the work to be done with brave hearts and abiding faith; and that is more satisfying to President-General Garvey than any other assurance that could be given to him. He wants, above all other things, that the Association shall live and labor for the accomplishment of the ideals which brought it into existence and which promise so much for the welfare of the race, not only in the future, but now. The members of the Association have shown that they share his aspirations and hopes in this respect, and it is good that it is so. Let us stand firm and immovable and fight the harvest home. It means race salvation so to do. PRESIDENT COOLIDGE ENDORSES GOVERNMENT BY PARTY Young people should take more to the professions. When it comes that kind of work they are hard to find.— Tampa. Bulletin. DURING the late Presidential campaign many Republicans bolted their party nominees and platform and went after "strange gods." Among these were Senator Robert M. LaOllette of Wisconsin and the radical members of the Senate and the House of Representatives. The leaders of the Republican party in the Congress determined to read these bolters out of the party and to deprive them of the many privileges they had enjoyed as Republicans. It was a drastic way of doing things, but if government by party is to continue to be the rule in our system of government it was the proper thing to do. The action not only included the bolters in Congress, but those of the rank and file throughout the country. Felix von Luschan in his latest book writes: "The differences between races, especially those regarding intellectual and moral qualities, are by no means as great as the differences between single individuals belonging to the same race. There are no inferior races, but each race has its inferior individuals."—Seattle Enterprise. There must be an increase in individual capability. Race business executives are depending less and less upon their own knowledge, and becoming learners father than leaders. They need to awaken, for the doom of the self-made man is foreshadowed. Business; following the course of law and medicine; is becoming a profession, with institutions of higher learning which will create professionally trained executives."—Washington Tribune. Very naturally, President Coolidge endorsed the action of the leaders of the Republican party in Congress. As a good party man there was nothing else left for him to do. We have a notion, however, that it is not the partisan who tricks to his party, right or wrong, who is the best citizen, but rather the man who can rise above party and vote independently for men and measures he deems best for the country. All the great reforms have had in this country have been brought about by the independent voter. Slavery was abolished in that way; so was the spoils system, with the substitution of the civil service system we now have for it. The old saw about a newspaper should know everything going on in the community is bunk unless there is a disposition on the part of all interested parties to co-operate. Half the news gathered on any paper, daily or weekly, is the outcome of the desire for publicity on the part of the working few who really do things and tips from outliers—Indianapolis Freeman. The Universal Negro Political Union of the Universal Negro Improvement Association stands for the principle of independent voting; that is, instead of being blindly partisan, its members are expected to weigh men and measures in any given community, state or the Nation, and to decide to support those that appear most favorable to them and their interests. It is only by adopting and adhering to such a course of action can we hope to get a larger measure of the benefits of citizenship than we now enjoy in the United States, the West Indies and in Africa. There is a growing demand throughout the nation for better treatment of human kind. The South is not the only section that would profit or is profiling by these meetings. While some of us may think that matters should be more thoroughly discussed and more time given to important race problems in these communities, we must be encouraged to know that some effort is being made and the intricate problems are vital to us all are being clarified—Burnhamingham Reporter. What on earth can the presence of respectable families of any race or group of people hurt in a community? Why can't our money and attention be used to help one to five who are poor? Why is it that we have to deport them with the wrong people? Why should we allow them to live in the same place as others? When will the treatment be made metropolitan daily, has a peculiar place in the home. It becomes a part of the family, because its news stories concern the activities of the home town folks, and what deeper interest could be developed than among those, with whom we live and move. The community is the ante-chamber of the home, and the weekly newspaper the avenue that leads from one .ot the other. Our message is this: Give to your newspaper co-operation. Results will come back to you in a community asset—a wide-awake, forceful, influential newspaper, and a power in influence for good in your community. Denver Star. There is nothing more distressing to a parent—even though he may be illiterate himself—than to be unable to give his child the advantages of an education. These conditions are alarming and should arouse the consciousness of the nation to overcome them. Illiteracy is the cause of vices and crime.

Mr. Garvey's Incarceration Wrong, Says Prof. Hart WASHINGTON, D. G. — W. H. H. Mart, founder of Howard Law School and for 85 years, partner of criminal law at that institution, declared recently before the legal branch of the University Negro Impersonation Association that Marion Carvey had been wrongly inquestored, and, with proper legal procedure, could be归还 from prison within a fortnight. He was introduced by Perry W. Prichy as the principal in the firm car one of its staff. The State of New York which decreed that interstate pursuers and not subject to State law sweep car laws. He declared that Carvey had been committed to prison on the informed that he simply invigorated court to one Danny in Brooklyn contained a felon, which led an immigration collection for injunction. (From the Florida Sentinel) Every now and then we are given the occasion to cough up a reason or two in support of the opinion that the Negro's best friends are Southern white folks. The occasion this time comes from a Yankee who is down here in Florida spending the winter and who just the other night spoke to a congregation in a Negro church, and in speaking the Yankee let go a statement something like this: "You colored people need to exert more care in placing your dependence on those whom you believe to be your best friends." Now, we may or may not know the impression the speaker intended to make; but we have an inkling that he was warning us against outing too much dependence on our good white neighbors here in the South. We're here and now to say that we can put all the dependence in the world on the people of Florida. In the first place, the white people themselves tell us here that they are our best friends. All the white papers say it editorially; all the white preachers say it from their pulpits and from our pulpits at the chance; all who employ Negroes say it; all who collect from Negroes for white insurance companies say it; all who captives from house to house among Negroes selling patent medicines or antiquated organs, or soap and perfume say it. White folks don't lie to Negroes. They don't have to. Whether they are right or wrong, in court or out of court, it's all the same as between white follow and black folios. They say they are our best friends. Who will dispute them? Reason number one. The white folks think so much of us here in the South that they have agreed among themselves to do all of the work that we used to do, knowing that we worked too hard during slavery, and now we deserve enforced rest. The carpentry, masonry, blacksmithing, whitewashing, shoemaking, barbering, railroading, ditching; drinking liquor, gambling, guntoting, well—the white folks have dignified those jobs in the name of Union Labor so as to remove the stigma of equality with us, but they are doing the work. They love us so that they feel that anything more nutritious than air would be harmful as food for us. They want us to rest and sleep the rest of our days. What better friends do we need than those who, at the point of a vellum gun, will force us to retire from active service for our health's sake. It reason number two. Our minds have been so taxed and our purges so drained paying spurious debts on land, on farm implements and fertilizer, on furniture, on clothing, on grocery bills, on taxes for this and taxes for that, and we have been so put to it to keep out of jail and off the chain-gang while at the same time we the devilish Klu Klux Klan to evade, the white people out of sympathy have decreed that the Negro's mind shall have a long vacation. We don't have to worry with books and pencils, blackboards and crayon. The white folks are such friends that they want to do all thinking forests, take all the schooling, all the manual training, all the agriculture, all the arts and all the sciences. And where else but the south, the white folks would make us wake up from our sleep and figure a little and do a little thinking. These good folks don't mean to disturb us now. They know what we have been through as nobody else knows and they are our best friends in seeing to it that we have a long peace of mind. Reason number three. We shall not exercise the franchise. That entails too much responsibility on our tired, worn-out shoulders. No one but a friend would think to relieve us of that responsibility. Our white friends do that down here in Florida. Reason number four. We are warm natured. A large, clean, girly train coach would work a hardship on us; so the white folly down here hard us all in one-fourth of a compartment car that we might peek close in and keep warm and sleep comfortably. These white follies certainly look forward to our travel. They are our friends indeed. Reason number five. And the southern white people are their own nation and with their own in their financial relation with the individual Negro as with the group. We can depend on getting a square coal in silver matters. For instance. Take all the money you pay in taxes to the state and the county and the city. Your schools are provided for pupilage. We have good and good and they learn in good manner in these schools and more. Which in the past few years has rung from shore to shore And you must live—yes, you shall live for years to come. That we may hear these more As your sweet singing gained for you a noble place, So has it added laurels to your struggling race. There Is Much in All Sorts Of Weather to Appreciate The weather is the most talked of, most abused, most praised, most strangely deceitful, and yet the most constant and upward thing in our every-day lives. The weather furnishes a means of beginning a conversation, an excuse for not getting up mornings, a reason for travel, an alibi for poor business, a boon to the farmer, a benefit to the consumer, a difficulty for aviation, a job for government employees, and fortune for coal and ice dealers, an opportunity for circuses and chauauquas, a paradise for lovers, a cause for rheumatism, a subject for editorials, and another reason for radios, closed cars and fur coats. "We don't have the winters we used to have," is a familiar expression. The fact remains that we do have the winters we used to have; and the summers, too. The apparent difference between now and then is psychological. When we were children the beautiful snow impressed us more and we waded deeper into it; the rain beat down harder because we were out in it more; the thunder clapped boulder because we understood it less and it terrified us more. Besides all this, the mind of youth takes deep impressions, mingles them with imagination — builds snow crystals in the joy of life which age receives as a crusty reality. But to facts. An eminent authority says that there is pretty general agreement that within historic times progressive changes of climate have not occurred. In parts of the United States temperature and rainfall records have been kept for more than one hundred years. Taking New York City and New, Orleans as examples, he states that in a century of time at New York and in eighty-seven years at New Orleans, the yearly means have not varied more than five or six degrees, although it is shown that, rainfalls, show a much greater variation. As in the story of the man who traveled extensively, but "always took his climate with him," and never, quite could find a suitable one, weather agreeableness is largely a matter of acclimation and mental attitude. Much as we like to dream of sunny isles and palm-bedecked avenues, the Almighty never intended that all of us should walk around in bathing suits, or spend all of our time frolicking after rabbits in snowshoes. So long as we are sober, industrious, happy, thrifty, co-operative and conscientious, we ought to take the weather for, better for worse, though the doing of this is a virtue mankind has been slow to adopt. county and city boards, mayors and even an occasional governor, all drawing fat salaries from the public treasury which our taxes help provide. If these folks were not our friends would it be possible for us to enjoy this official recognition and these returns from our taxes? If the white people were not honest such a condition be possible? Reason number six. We would not have the impression go abroad that the frequent lynchings; Florida in which Negroes are invariably the subject, are evidences of the white man's ill-will toward us. Far from it. We are lynched by our best friends. These white folks really love us to kill. And, we have no words with which to express our profound appreciation for their love and friendliness. If these reasons do not satisfy those who have any doubts about the southern white people's dependence based upon their innate and traditional friendship for the good, loyal, submission, bat-in-hand darky, just let us know. We have not even begun to disclose the thousand and one reasons in substitution of the opinion that southern white folks are the Negro's best friend. We are purposefully with betting the best reason for the time when we will be drawn into a controversy by some smart plan who feels called on to question the soundness of our legislated such stuff. But brother, this argument is sound because it is based upon the logic of the settled south. We down here heart of our refinements our courts of justice, our brothers and our chiefly our government law and for the Constitution of the United States, and our institutional home and humanity. Indeed such greatly improves the relationship between the white people and the blacks by these actions. HEALTH TOPICS BY DR. B. S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association Robbers Gems, furs and money are not the most precious things which you and I can lose. Robbers are to be feared not only for their lightfingered propensities, but because in these days they seem to think nothing of taking life too. Alexander the Great poured out his wrath upon Dionides the pirate—"vile brigand"—who had been captured and brought before him. Said the captive, "Because I have, but one ship I am, a 'brigand!' You, with a fleet, ravage the world, and are a 'conqueror.'" The common cold is similar to Diroides, in itself that it does not threaten your life. On the other hand it is like Alexander with his huge fleet. It threatens your life in that it may bring up a whole host of troubles. Common colds may predipose to pneumonia, which you know, is very serious. Common colds, frequently present, may bring about infections which in the end produce heart troubles. Heart troubles are more and more serious to us as they are increasing, and are now the cause of more deaths than any other disease. If for no other reason than to prevent heart troubles, the common cold should be avoided. Kidney troubles, ear trouble, sinus trouble are some of the diseases which may follow the "insignificant cold." Insignificant indeed! Frequent colds may so weaken a person and undermine the natural resistance which Nature makes within the individual that tuberculosis may put in its appearance. Colds do not "run into consumption," but they may have stirred up the sleeping germs of tuberculosis and may have given them a weak, unresisting body to work upon. Colds are like the plough in the field. They work the ground, and if the seeds of disease fall into that prepared soil, roots may take hold. This being the case, how can each of us prevent the unnecessary common colds? The Race Must Have A Strong, Fearless Press The Race Must Have A Strong, Fearless Press From the Omaha Monitor is becoming increasingly apparent that there never was a time in the history of our race in this country when an honest, sane, fearless and intelligent press was more urgently needed than today. As the race advances in intelligence, moraf character, wealth and self-respect, malignant and hostile forces oppose its progress and advance. These forces are not to be feared, but they are to be met and conquered. This can only be done by the moulding of a right public sentiment, and for this we need our own publications, which should be adequately supported and financed. The race-press is growing in power and influence and is continuing to grow, but it is regrettable that so many of our race are so short-sighted as not to appreciate the important work race newspapers are doing. They are meeting an imperative need. We are not a pessimist, but an optimist of the first rank. At the same time, however, we are not ignorant of conditions as they are, and realize that they will be, better only as we use every ounce of energy given - us to make them better. Opposition makes one strong and that, we take it, is the Divine purpose back of the opposition which confronts our racial group today. Palpit and press have an imperative duty to perform in encouraging racial solidarity, setting good and self-respectful standards. We need to have embraced the constructive side of our racial life and thus the race grown in serving to do. It can be done and will be done more effectively as the race journal, magazine and newspaper are more adequately supported.

MALLIET WAS CONVERTED TO GARVEYISM Close Study of the Principles of the Association and the Membership and Mr. Garvey's Trial and Conviction Made a Convert of Him To the Editor of the Nexro World: As should be expected, writers and thinkers of diverse political, social and economic philosophies are rushing into print with their thoughts on Marcus Garvey, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Black Star Line, and everything that was ever or is now connected with what is known as the Garvey movement. Some of these, individuals are sane, intelligent, far-seeing; some are decidedly dishonest and insincere; others possess no rectitude of understanding whatever. Such differences of opinion on universally vital issues fill the pages of human history.

It may not be possible to make converse of the reconciliable, but their attitude and propaganda can be shown to be either vindictive or ridiculous, which would disarm them. Furthermore, it ought not to surprise or alarm any one if at times the opposition appears victorious, for this is the way of Nature. Out of the struggle for existence converse the survival of the fittest. And as no reasonable person can dare deny the ultimate triumph of right over might, justice over injustice, truth over error, there need be no apprehension concerning the future of the U. N. I. A. as the most potent factor working toward universal Negro liberation. Many reasons, suggest that I state how and why I became directly interested in the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and decided to speak out in its behalf. My change of attitude is the direct result of the trial, conviction and imprisonment of Mr. Garvey. Prior to his trial I entertained no positive opinions of his work; my attitude was that of a neutral, for I had not given any serious thought to the man and his philosophy, nor did it occur to me that great good might result from the movement. But like a thunderclap that shook the very foundations of the earth, the trial and imprisonment of Marcus Garvey aroused me from my indifference and urged me to stand for or against the movement. I therefore decided to critically examine the fundamental principles, methods and objects of the U. N. I. A. with a view to strict compliance with the outcome of a most rigorous rational analysis; I concluded beforehand that reason and not sentiment would be my guide. I assumed, in thinking out the many problems presented to my mind by this organization, the attitude of the true philosopher, which is best expressed by John Griever Hibben in the following significant and remarkable manner: "The true philosopher," says Hibben, "is a brave spirit; dauntless to discover and, bold to declare, the truth at all hazards. He feels the inner constraint of his messages, and, as a prophet to his day and generation, he must needs, speak, though the whole world cry to him, 'Silence!' With singleness of purpose he would cheerfully sacrifice place, friends, church, country, for the sake of truth." My next move was to visit Liberty Hall immediately after Garvey had been imprisoned and there see the reaction of the members of the association to the misfortune that had befallen their indomitable leader and themselves. The meeting I attended was held on Sunday night. "february 8. and, I was immediately impressed by the large attendance. I went to listen, observe, reflect. the chairman. Mr. West, was very calm and performed his duties with much intelligence and dignity. The first speaker, Mr. Percival Burrows, was also calm. After Mr. Burrows came Bishop George A. McGuire, who, with his unmatched powers of sarcastic malaise, welcomed and thanked all "visitors" for being present, and who with his vivid imagination and proficiency, theological, philosophical and historical learning drew from all available sources analogies describing the love of the members of the J. N. I. A. for their leader and their loyalty to the cause which he so bravely championed. I left the meeting satisfied with I I had seen and heard. It was very peaceful. Mr. Weston, Mr. Burrows and Bishop McGuire made it very plain to the audience that it was absolutely necessary for them, officers and members alike, to respect constituted authority; and they did not fail to remind those present that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is engaged in a grim intellectual, moral and spiritual battle. I revisited Liberty Hall on Sunday night, February 15, a week later, and listened to a lengthy discourse by Mr. Sherill. He dealt chiefly with the international situation and its relation to Garvey's imprisonment. He gave an idea of what should be expected in the future, for the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association war one that aimed a death-blow to European influence in Africa. His was a masterful presentation of the facts as they really are. Amy Jegrese-Garney was the next speaker, and she made a rather significant and necessary statement to the effect that the object of the U. N. L. A. was not race hate, and that they were too active engaged in the affairs of the race to pla revenge. I must say here, that statements have been made in the past by those in authority that would make one believe that Mrs. Garvey's utterance on this particular point indicated a change of policy. But it may be that such statements were made while the speakers were over-enthussed and in a state of passion. And, after all, if Negroes did hate white people and plan revenge, exception could only be taken on purely ethical grounds, for who will deny, that Negroes have every reason to hate their oppressors and pray for "der tag"? But no one who really knows and understands black folk can truthfully say they are : engeful: Go where you will, a more loving, humane, loyal and just people will not be found; and this fact ought to be sufficient to convince all those who are alarmed that no hate is entertained nor any revenge planned by Negroes against any other race. Have not the Negroes forbearance and reliance upon the providence of Almighty God during their most trying times, under the yoke of slavery, attested to this truth, Negroes cannot hate; they do not know how. While I sat in the audience I listened attentively to what was being said by those beside me, and I must say that no one expressed a word of dissatisfaction or despair; and the facial expressions of those I could see like a thermometer, registered optimism and hope. I also discussed the meaning, principles and methods of the U. N. L. A. with intelligent and illiterate members of the organization and they all expressed themselves as having a clear understanding of and being in accord with the essentials of the movement. The unity of thought existing in the ideals of the association and the firm resolve of its members to carry on to the bitter end are particularly marvelous and astounding. As the thoughts of the gigantic lovers which resulted from the operations of the Black Star Line and the Negro Factories Corporation, the wicked work of the powerful opposition, the ridiculous and saint directed at the U. N. L. A. and its members, course through my mind. I wonder what is it that makes a people swear such fealty to this organization or movement. I wonder what is it that inspires a people not only to withstand huge financial losses like stories, but to make the launching of the S. S. Booker T. Washington a reality. I wonder what is it that made a people dig down into their pockets and supply $15,000 as ball for the man accused of defrauding them. I wonder what is the unrestrainable urge that compels a people to continue a death struggle, united like Prussian warriors, in suite of every conceivable obstacle that is put in the way of their forward march. There are questions that are indeed provocative, questions that provide food for thought, and it would not be an altogether useless undertaking if the irreconcilables who go painting around would essay to think them out, scientifically at least, and find the answers. Surely, the desire for purely material gain does not and could not exercise such compelling influence over the minds of any portion of humankind. From my observations and reflections, I am forced to the conclusion that the so-called Garvey Movement is no fantastic dream of an egotist, for if this were the case, millions of others, many intelligent and reasonable, would have to be considered fantastic dreamers and egotists also; and as I have a clear conception of what Garveyism is and means, and as I know that its purpose and meaning fit in a rational and practical scheme of things, I must reject as absurd and malicious any propaganda which gives or tends to give to this movement a fantastic and an irrational character. In line to conclude this discourse, I am satisfied that at the present time the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is one that an honest liberal thinker can support and, to my mind, every right-thinking man or woman of Negro blood owes it not only to himself or herself but to ponterity to rise in defense and support of the U. N. I. A., in this its time of need. A. M. WENDELD MALLIET. New York City.

Awaiting to interest you BRUTAL BRITISH CAPTAIN AND MATE HAD TO KNUCKLE Continuation of Mr. Batson's Experiences as a West Indian Seaman in Africa — Called Natives "Swine and Cannibals" for Singing at Work "Piston that bloody singing, you bloody carnibals, you pack of swine! Stop that bloody singing, or I'll come down there and kick the lives out of you!" "This was the voice of the third mate, a white boy about twenty years of age, on board one of the Elder Dempster cargo boats discharging cargo alongside the dock at Port Harcourt, nitty-mite miles up the bonny river Nigeria, West Africa. In the month of January, 1924. The men to whom he spoke were a number of natives working, as only the natives of Africa can be made to work, down in No. 2 hold. These men were "working like machines" and singing at the same time in their own tongue. I remember well, by the air which was just the same as if sung in the English tongue, the brynn "Jesus loves me, this I know, for the little tells me so." This is true, and I believed, and still believe with these men, that Jesus does, but the third mate, a "Christian gentleman," evidently did not believe in what these men were singing and therefore became infuriated and bloodthirsty. I was in the saloon with my assistant getting the tables ready for dinner when I overheard these curses and threats coming from the lips of the third mate. My face became dull. My shoulders had reached almost up to my ears, and my heart was beating much faster than usual. "You bloody cannibals, you pack of swine," I repeated to myself. "And these men are black men, Africans in Africa, their own home, and I am a black man, a descendant of an African woman. Does the third mate know that he has addressed me also?" I asked myself. Leaving the saloon I went out on deck and approached the third mate, and, calling him by name, I asked: "Do you think it is right and proper for you to be abusing these men, calling them swine and cannibals as you do?" "Now, look here. Eaton, I will hear nothing from you. Furthermore, I won't have you interfere with my duties as an officer of this ship," he declared. "You are going to listen to me, Mr. Third Mate," I insisted. "No, I won't, and besides I'll take you on the bridge for interfering with me while I am, performing my 'duties as an officer. Come on up,' he ordered. "Go on up; I'll be up there with you, don't be afraid." I assured him. Having appeared before the Captain on the bridge, the third mate charged that I interfered with him in the "execution of his duties." "Why did you interfere, with the third mate, Batson?" asked the Canadian skipper. "If curator, abusing, calling these men swine and cannibals and threatening their very lives are parts of the third mate's duties, then I must admit to having interfired with his duties, but it does not appear to me, Captain." "But they are not civilized, Batson, and if he calls from swine and cannibals he does not refer to you. You are quite different from these men—you are like me," he offered. Are you losing WEIGHT?

"If they are not yet civilized," I continued, that does not speak well for your people, who have been teaching, Christianizing and civilizing them for the past 500 years Captain." "We have been watching you all along Batson. We know you were a 'propagandist', that's just what you are, a 'Bolshevik'. Your efforts are good, but we do not think you can do anything with them, not just now. Don't bother yourself they will be 'emancipated in time', he assured me; "let's forget all about it." "Emancipated in time?" Why, Captain, I thought Queen Victoria had done that 90 years ago? However, you are right, Captain, they will be emancipated in time, and that is why I am now making this attempt to have them emancipated from the curses, abuses, and threats of the third-mate. In calling them swine and cannibals the third-mate has included me, since I am a black man and the son of a woman who was taken from this country to the Western world as a slave. I am not a propagandist not a Bolshevist, as you have accused me, but as a black man I feel exactly as you or any of your officers would feel if I or any other Negro on board should refer to you as being a pack of swine and cannibals. You would not be willing to tell me, but I do know exactly how you would feel, Captain." "See, you have every one of those men excited, they are willing to do almost anything now." "They will do, absolutely nothing, Captain," I assured him and waving my hand I advised them all to return to their work, with which they complied unhesitably to a man. "He had no right to call these men swine and cannibals," shouted a native gentleman from below. "What have you to do with this?" asked the Captain. Leave the ship at once of I'll have you arrested. "I will do nothing of the sort," retorted the native gentleman. "I will see both you and the third-mate make medicines or another shipper take this ship out of Portharcourt." It was the Captain's maiden trip to Vigiria, and the native gentleman in question unknown to both the Captain and myself was in full power to hold the ship up until all matters are entirely thrashed out. While at this gentleman's house on that evening I was surprised to have seen no fewer than twelve copies of the "Negro World" newspaper. J. MILTON BATSON.

An indemnity charging first degree murder was returned today by a Dixie County Grand Jury against Thomas H. Higginsbotham, D. A. Parker, E. W. Preset, W. G. McKenney, John H. Gins burn, Chief Deputy Sheriff of the county, and Charlie Hirt, a Negro. They are charged with killing Lawn Barker, a Negro, on Oct. 19, 1944. The indictment charged that the defendants first beat, bruised and otherwise misrested Barker and then shot him to death. According to information available here, there is no connection between the death of Barker and the charge pending against Higginbotham growing out of the death of Martin Tahert, of North Dakota, in a Dixie County hunter camp about two years ago. Higginbotham was convicted of second degree murder and has been put liberty under bond awaiting a second trial.

TO WORK FOR A LYNCHLESS LAND IN YEAR 1926 Federal Council of Churches Issues Statement, Sounds a Warning and Asks for Concerted Effort to Crush the Lynching Disgrace WASHINGTON, March 17.—Let the churches cry aloud for a Lynchless land in 1856, raise the statement of the Federal Council of Churches, announcing its third annual Non-lynching Roll of Honor. Thirty-eight states earned places on the Roll of Honor by being free from lynchings last year, according to a statement issued by the Council's Commission on Race Relations today. The definition of lynching is taken up in the statement. Ten states, one more than last year, "bore the black shame of lynchings." Though one more state had lynchings than in 1923, the number of mob murders was cut in half. Leaders point out however, that four lynchings have been recorded so far in 1925, and that there must be increased efforts on the part of the churches and governmental authorities against this type of lawlessness. Three new states appear on the roll of honor this year: Arkansas, Oklahoma and Virginia. The names of four states have been removed because of one lynching in each during the year. They are Illinois and Kentucky, which had been free from lynchings for two years, and South Carolina and Tennessee which had clear record in 1823. This shows, according to officials of the Commission, that the abolition of lynching can be achieved. The number of victims of lynching in 1824 was 16, the lowest number since records of the evil have been kept, according to a statement in the pamphlet by Professor Monroe M. Work, of Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee Alabama, soon to be published by the Commission on Race Relations. "The next lowest number," says the statement, "were in 1917, when the total number of victims was 38 and in 1923 when the total number was 32. The highest number was 255 in 1932. In 1924, however, there were lynchings in 10 states as compared with such atrocities in 9 states in 1923. The third annual Honor Roll of states free from a lynching in 1924 is as follows: THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 2005 THIS IS TO CERTIFV that I have appointed and requested my wife, AMY JACQUES-GARVEY, to receive donations to the Marcus Garvey Freedom and Protection Fund, of which she is Secretary-Treasurer, and to disburse some for my health and protection.

Last year a newspaper discussion arose over the question of what constitutes a lynching. The Federal Council's Commission on Race Relations, therefore, has studied carefully the whole question. The result of this inquiry is Professor Work's pamphlet, which summarizes the definitions from all dictionary authorities, the definitions of the term in legislative enactments of the states that have passed anti-lynching laws and the term as formulated in the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill before the last Congress. The pamphlet sums up the discussion of the definition as follows:— "On the basis of the above understanding of what constitutes a lynching, the practice in general of compilers of lynching records has been not to include In such records persons put to death in what are commonly designated as riots. The whole matter would appear to turn upon where one is to draw the line between riots, where there is the promiscuous killing of individuals, and lynchings, where particular individuals are seized and put to death for alleged particular offences." The report continues that if revision of the definition is needed this "could most properly be done by a committee of lawyers, representing the whole country; as for example, a committee from the American Bar Association. "On the other hand, since a question of law and fact is involved, a final and authoritative definition of lynchings would have to be made by the courts. As for example, a case under some one of the present state laws against lynchings might be brought against a county where an alleged lynching had occurred. The case might turn upon the question of what constitutes a lynching and might be carried through all the courts up to the United States Supreme Court. This court's definition and ruling would be final and authoritative." "The issue involved in both the lynching of helpless victims by mobs and of plots where there is promiscuous killing of individuals by one or both sides is that of law against lawlessness," says Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary, Federal Council's Commission on Race Relations in issuing the third annual honor roll. Lynching is a body blow to the ideals of brotherhood of the gospel which the churches profess and preach. The challenge in 1925 is whether individual conscience and public opinion can become powerful enough to enforce all necessary legal measures to the end that no community will allow lawless mobs to commit worse crimes against the law than they impute to their vicitims. Already within three months of this year four lynchings, including one burning of a negro at the stake, give a direct call to the Christian church to marshal conscience and public opinion to abolish the evil this year. Let the churches cry aloud for a lynchness land in 1926. Shall the Christ of brotherly good-will govern relations of human life in our communities or shall the Barrabs of lawless violence be left to inflame the multitude? Campaigning with Vice President Sherrill Mr. Holder Finds All Along the Way the People Loyal to President-General Garvey and the Association Among the many questions asked today is, "Will the Universal Negro Improvement Association continue to make progress?" Some believe that it will, others' believe that, it will not. Either side is entitled to its own opinion. But, after all, what is an opinion? Is it something that is correct in every case? Certainly not. As one writer says, "an opinion is something which changes, all depending on what one had for dinner the night before." What we are concerned with at this time is not opinion, but fact. A fact it is that Marcus Garvey is not actively at the helm of the association, because of which the association's failure is the belief of some. But, just for a moment, let us discuss other facts and see whether enough could not be gathered to support the conclusion that the association is destined to greater achievements. If outward demonstrations amount to anything, and they surely should, it would be easy to see and realize that the latter is a fact. At Liberty Hall in New York the meetings are crowded night after night and envisaged on every face is that determination and seriousness of purpose which is enough without further evidence, to convince one that success is assured. To the expiences who visit Liberty Hall, New York only, it will be an easy matter for him to reach any opinion he wants to, but when we consider the general manifestation of the members we cannot but conclude that greater things will soon be accomplished. New York is not singular in its demonstrations. Everywhere over the country the spirit is the same, and it is being pursued with a determination that knows no compromise. Let us take the Detroit and some of the mid-western divisions for examples. Last Sunday the Honorable Sir William L. Sheriff was advertised to speak at the Detroit Division. It was generally expected and believed that he would have spoken to the walls; but, O, what a day it was? From about 1 o'clock people started to gather at the meeting place. At 2 o'clock, the time scheduled for the meeting, there were thousands of Nerroes on the Street, each trying to gain admission. It should be stated that nearly all of these people had bought their tickets in advance. When it was found that there was not even standing room, the officers decided to return the amount paid for each ticket. This decision the people felt was an insult to their loyalty towards the association and unanimously they refused to take their money back. They were contented just to get a glimpse at the Hon. William L. Sheriff, thereby satisfying themselves that the destinies of the Association are to safe hands. A crowd such as gathered hurt Sunday at Detroit will tempt some into believing that the people want there from more currently, but when one takes time to contemplate the financial implications that was made by these very people who paid an education, he cannot but conclude that there is nothing in the world to stop the expansion of the men and women who make up the Universal Negro Improvement Association. On leaving Detroit, I want to the Hampton Division, and to my great安慰 I now an ever-crowded church. Just as it was in Detroit these people paid an admission fee, and what was remarkable still, is the fact that some of the members who couldn't main admixture to the two postings at Detroit wended their way to Hampton only to make contributions. Detroit and Hampton were not singular, for the, Cleveland Division a night later made the same demonstration, and so did Akron and Columbus. As I visit Division after Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and see the enthusiasm manifested by determined black men and women, even when the pearless and indomitable leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, is with them or not, I cannot but feel that the work which our leader started many years ago is like a canker, piercing the heart of Negro universally who really know what suffering is. I can say at this time without fear of contradiction that the seed of Negro nationalism is well planted, and with all the scheming, designing and what not, there is nothing to stop the onward rush of this mighty forest fire which is burning everything that comes before it. It seems to me that while Marcus Garvey is present the members feel that they can afford to stay at home, and nobody visit the meetings because the great genius is on the job and they know all will be well. But today, with Marcus Garvey away, every member of the association is always out to do what he or the can. You always on the job to meet any emergency demands. The pathfinders of the association is very high, and, while the Hoe, Marcus Garvey is taking a root, which he really needs, the Committee of Management is working overtime to keep the spirit at its present level, so that when the great leader returns, with his new idea, he will find a Universal Negro Improvement Association that is making progress in every way.

It is up to us to open them for passage. The man whose inner soul never gives up may be killed, but is never conquered. Slaves may be sold into bondage, but they are only physically sold, there is the ever-living spirit, that is dominant. It is that something that no one can take from us. Our feet and hands may be cut off, our sight takes away, in spite of our utmost resistance, but the freedom of the spirit is conquered only when we give in. No matter what the odds are against us, our inner freedom cannot be taken from us unless we allow it. We may have word battles, we may crush another's feelings, but before we shut our eye in peaceful alumbre, we must settle with our inner spirit or suffer a case of insomnia. Many persons are physically all right, and have sleepless nights: They wonder and wonder what is the cause. They may spend a little sum in consulting a specialist, who may pay. There is something pressing on your mind, stop worrying, and they write you a prescription, which means more money. The whole thing is that you are having a quiet war with your inner spirit. Until this war is settled, things go wrong. It is a pleasant thing to be assured of something we can call our own, of which we are the masters—an inner freedom of our souls. THE POLLERS OF THE DAY NOW AT THE LAFAYETTE Well Known and Popular Players Now Pleasing Theatregoers with Happy Combination After a trip with the "International Folies," which finished last week, the patrons of the Lafayette Theatre are now having the opportunity of seeing a new classy revue, called "The Folies of the Day," which opened "desterday." Advance heralding predicts that this revue is better than "The Harlem Rounder," the "production which, created such a furore and was so highly praised when playing this house a few weeks ago. Judging from the amount of entertainment which is offered, pecked houses will be the rule at most performances." "The Follies of the Day" is a stupendous production, rich in scenic beauty and lappyly bedecked. The star cast which presented "The International Follies" and "Ilaram Rounders" again will be seen at their beat. Abbie Mitchell, the prima donna, is an experienced principal who knows values: Florence McClain and Kitty Brown have excellent voices and book class at all times. Billy Higgins, Gulfport and Pist are a trio of comedians whose mannerisms and material keep you laughing all the time, while the straight line is capably handled by George Cooper and Will Brown. Lovers of dancing will applaud the corking work of Dewey Wineglass and his demons, along with Eddie and George. J. Rosamond Johnson and his band are again dispensing that catchy music which is so entrancing. The peppers, chorus, with the dainty girls and clever boys, are springing pleasant surprises. Taken as a whole "The Follies of the Day," to use the street vernacular, is a "knockout." Friday midnight show will be given and the same popular prices will prevail.

Some self-satisfied Negroes, who cannot see further than their noses, and are only interested in their immediate surroundings, laughed at him, others called him crazy. But when one follows closely the activities of world powers, and learns the policies motivating their actions, one is bound to admit, "of a truth he is right." H. H. Powers, a rather outspoken exponent of imperialism, gives us, as a weak race, much food for thought. In an article in the February issue of the Atlantic Monthly he says: "Exploitation is the primary and legitimate aim of imperialism. The weak, the ignorant, and the slothful races cannot expect to remain undisturbed in their habitat. It is much that they are allowed to remain at all, a concession rather to the humanity of their better than to their own right. Interference, guidance and control are the indispensable conditions of this tolerance. We cannot leave them to their indoleft siesta if they hold in accidental and unconscious keeping the energies needed for advancing civilization." This emphatic declaration speaks for itself. The writer goes on to show that weak and oppressed peoples all over the world are clamoring for self-determination, then he asks the question, "What would be the result of this much-invoked race-for-bearance, save give the child of the future a Hottentot for a father instead of a white man?" This is the crux of the whole situation. If white nations were to honestly and sympathetically help and train Negroes along the road to self-government, when they reached the highest possible perfection they would become the masters of the world. Their physical strength, prowess in battle, virility as a race, and adaptability to strange surroundings, would tend in a few years to produce a splendid type of black humanity, whose very self-sufficiency, would cause him to say, "I call no man master." Instead of the child of the future being a Hottentot, the man of the future would be a Negro. The imperialistic writer closes his article with the arresting thought, "Will the world wait for child-peoples to grow to the measure of these requirements when it can displace them with better stock?" We add, the white race certainly is well protected by its racial thinkers and prophets, who warn their people continuously of the dangers ahead. This policy of imperialism has been working out for years. Those who have vision see it, but some do not realize it until it is told them in plain blunt cruel words. The white man is determined to have all the world and its resources, if possible, for himself and his porterity. The yellow man has sensed this selfish purpose, and is marshalling all the physical, mental and scientific forces at his command and marching abreast of the white man to glory and to power. The yellow man's challenge to the white man is, "What is good for you, is also good for me, and I am going to take mine." The brown man within the last few years has opened his eyes to the fact that he, too, should organize his forces, at least to hold his native habitat and protect it for all times. Lastly comes the black man, late though he be, and says, "We are also in the fight for the survival of theittest. God Almighty made us a separate and distinct race, and apportioned to us the great continent of Africa with the command, 'occupy untitled' come." Because of our failure to live up to the high purpose for which we were created, we have been scattered to the furthermost ends of the world, and kept divided through the subtle propaganda of those who fear our united strength. But Marcus Garvey came on the scene six years ago, with a message for his race. He showed them a picture of a world that had not enlarged its geographical boundaries, yet whose population was rapidly multiplying; that this immense mass of humanity was instinctively grouping itself racially, in preparation for the great "pushing off process"; that weak and unorganized groups were being robbed of the territories they occupied and were being gradually exterminated, so as to make room for the more powerful to expand. He pointed us to the vast continent of Africa, the richest in the world, that was being pillaged by bankrupt Europe to resuscitate its treasures, and to bolster up its valted superiority. Then he related to us the horrible story of the slave-trade, that had caused us to be brought from our native homes in Africa and distributed as cattle, in North, South and Central America, and the Islands of the Caribbean. He besought us as one race, as one people, although scattered, to link ourselves together in one grand organization, for the ultimate purpose of redeeming Africa from the hands of those who exploit and ravish her. Now the whole world of Negroes has heard the gospel of Garveyism, and is raising the cry everywhere, "We are coming, Mother Africa, 400,000,000 strong." Coming with the latest developments in science, industry and commerce to lead Africa to glory, and to make of her a world power to be reckoned with. Africa shall be restored to her ancient glory along modern lines by black men, who realize that if we must live, we must be strong. Power is the keynote of this age. When all races shall have acquired that, and reached a common plane of world achievement, each will grasp the hand of the other and say, "BROTHER". Until then, the struggle continues.

Straighten the hairpin and use as one would a long needle in the incision, catching it in one side and then the other, until it is all closed up.

To thread a needle when light is not good: When threading a sewing machine needle and one finds it difficult to see the eye of the needle, use a flashlight, having the light shine on the eye of the needle.

THE NIGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1989 HALF-MILLION DOLLAR CHURCHES AND NO JOBS Pastor Walker Thinks We Need Factories as Well as Churches and That the Shur of the Jew Was Heartless To the Editor of the Women's Pake: To the Editor of the Women's Page: While sitting at my desk after breakfast the other morning I casually took up a copy of your significant paper, "The Negro Worlds" dated Saturday, November 29, 1924, and scanned the columns of the same. The column with "Half # Million Dollar Churches and No Jobs" since I am a clergyman, claimed my immediate attention. As the article appeared in, the columns of the section, of this paper devoted to women, and I take it, writings from their pens, being of the opposite sex. I dare this intrusion. Being a man talking in an answer to a woman, I am, in my approach, deeply conscious of the truth that is so nightly implied in that convincing utterance, "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread." I do not close my eyes, nor ignore, the sore, economic problems that rise in expanding mountainous proportions out of the industrial conditions that are extant. I am appreciatively and co-operatively engaged in endeavoring to free our women from all such stated embarrassments in which they find themselves thrust and enslaved by the force and power of the present day economic systems. I gladly acknowledged the racial commanderliy privileges within the race to open up adequate and monetary industrial avenues for all Negro employees; for, when our men—proportionately we have as many many men and, too, womanly women in our race as any race—get into their vocational employment with the rightful compensation, the need of our women to go out embarrassingly and unwoman themselves will be radically channeled, if not, in the main, discontinued. The writer of the article, referee) to the employer of the deflected employee as a "Jew." I know ordinarily we speak of this brother of ours as such. He is a Hebrew. To address him with the hankle Jew, in the light of today’s glory, is as offensive to him as the word "Nigger" is to us when our lighter brother or brother of like complication so addresses us. Porta to Shylock, in Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice," said, "We do pray for mercy, and that same prayer doth teach us all to render the deeds of mercy." The writer quoted the Hebrew in answering the sharp, salting unbridling of his former employee as follows: "Don't come here to make an argument with me. Why don't you go to Harlem and advise your colored men that instead of building half a million dollar churches to build factories and employ you colored women." Then the writer adds: "She (the deflected colored employee) felt the truthfulness of this statement." There is no truth in the quoted statement, aside from this unstated, and unimpied truth that there ought to be factory buildings built for our industrial needs by interest and farsighted Negroes in our racial strategic centers, equally commensurate with our employment requirements as our modern church edifices are with our housing spiritual needs. With this understood, or injected truth, I heartily agree. But when this angry and indignant Hebrew says, "instead of building half a million dollar churches to build factories," it sharply differ from him. The alluring history of the temple building of his own people gives me to know that this expression was not out of his religious heart. For what people, from Solomon's time, when that great, gorgeous and glorious temple of forty and three years in erecting, the masterpiece of all time, was built, can even rival our Hebrew brethren in pecuniary expenditure for buildings for religious worship? None. The history of his industrial achievements does not give any fact that his avenues for their livelihood—at the time of the creation of Solomon's Temple—were commensurate with this temple in the expenditure of money or the housing compass, but rather to the contrary. Our half-million-dollar churches are of that amount, or any larger amount, in answer to an innate call of church sense, church judgment, church pride and church decency. A call, while through the centuries' silent march of plush-footed tread of feeting seconds was puffed and unheard by the calls to pleasure, good times, selfishness, church indulgence, non-appreciative value of money, invested in the same, and the satisfied siren song that any old makehift will do, has had 'the resuscitation' to carry the mentioned calls so unmistakably that it confounds the conception of some of us who have not heard the call with its bipolar sincerity, and others, not of us, who thought we were be insulted on the rank to that call, to see the modern religious flagged build, or perhaps, church edifices that rival or equal the more forward peoples in compulsive dignity, ample condition, imposing green and adjoining housing capacity and institution. folk in the first Christian church; which is far better than being in the Amazon and Sapphire group; that "now" has "overlight" grown to a countless multitude. One of the great curces of the Negro church, member today is his unwillingness to come up to the Scriptural standard of church financing—pay the one-tenth. As a rule, among the Negro laymen—I speak generally—the biggest church man is the best financial camouflager. At this the ex-Kaisler Wilhelm and his coterie of officers are novices compared with him. He does not tithe, as his aggregate giving are more than a tithe. While I good-naturedly acknowledge that, proportionately, the women (especially the noble group—stanch supporters, who earn their money by dignified, hard, honest labor) of the Negro churches, from my actual experience, give more than the men, they do not, an the assertion states, give all, and no same minister expects and knowingly accepts such. One has said: "The white man, respectively, sees in a dollar a church, a schoolhouse, a home, business, and pleasure. The black man, respectfully sees in a dollar a good time, fine clothes, a home, business, a schoolhouse, and, lastly, a church." White I do not believe in this statement, literally I quote it for what it might be worth to our race. May the time be at hand when the black man will do as stated in Matthew 933: "But see ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." When he, as a rage does this, and uses the same good sense in his economic and industrial program, they and the superior and dominant race ghosts will be satisfactorily settled and permanently disspelled. (Rev.) JAMES BLAINE WALKER Colorado Springs, Col. London Palace Has New Puzzle in Short Skirts Court officials are up against a dress problem for this year's courts at Buckingham Palace which will come various perturbation for weeks to come. Dresses for the first county season which were displayed today in the various dress parades in the shops which specialize in such costumes are almost knee length. If Queen Victoria were on the threemuch things would not be tolerated at ceremonial functions, and it remains to be seen whether Queen Mary will permit such a radical departure from custom. Last year was the first time that obliterated and stigmatized precesses and debauleurs appeared in court, but courtesies and plummes made it possible to camouflage their heads, so that they did not reveal their short locks. But there is no way of making a short, short look long despite a long train. In fact, the train only accentuates the beauty of the shift. Some of the more tender women of the aristocracy look favorably upon the short short court costumes, but they are anathema to most who are not slender. In keeping with the Lord Chambers's previous dress regulations these abbreviated dresses are not very low necked. Whether this concession to tradition will relieve the urgency of the ankle problem is a matter of great doubt. The Prince of Wales learnt he had had to do with modernizing his mother's viewpoint. For a long time jazz was not played at court functions nor were the latest steps permitted at ballo in Bodingham Palace until long after the Prince and his brothers became proficient in them and had been able to convince the Queen that they ought to have a fair show along with the old time waltz. Until word goes forth from the Lord Chamberlain regarding the new court dresses many society women are deploying in placing their orders. Is Your Child Thin and Weak?

The men always pred-minate at dances—three men to one woman. It is this condition that has made the 'out-in' dance such a necessity, otherwise few of the men would get a chance during the evening; but it is always hard on the girls, who seldom have an opportunity to sit out a dance. The younger girls all like this custom, but with a little more experience they become tired of it and prefer to sit out a dance with a man and have a little chat. One of these young couples recently became so engrossed in talking about moonlight, roses, etc., while sitting in a window seat behind heavy curtains that they did not need the passing of time, and when rising to have just one more dance they discovered the ballroom dark and deserted. Everyone had gone. This real happening was later woken up into a short story by a prominent author.

BROWN Ministry of Education, Department of Education R. is truly said that no race can rise any higher than its women. The third Sunday of each month in the Boston Division, U. N. I. A. the entire program is being turned over to the ladies. Under the aid leadership of the lady president, Mrs. Ernest Headly, the women, especially the young girls, are demonstrating the wisdom of this plan. Sunday, March 15, was "Ladies Day," and with a crowded hall, the Girls' Union Club entertained the audience in a unique way. The mass meeting was called to order at 4 p.m. and was opened in its usual way with short service, conducted by the lady chaplain, Mrs. George Cooper. The lady president then took the chair and called upon Mr. Prendergast, secretary of the division, to read communications from the Parent Body. The program rendered by the Girls Union Club was as follows: Selection by the choir; history of the Girls' Club, by Miss C. Dazel; piano solo by Miss Lucile Burke, president of the club; solo by Mrs. Armstrong, accompanied by Miss Rayner; reading by Miss R.

Although on February 15, no message concerning the inactivation of our inspired leader, Mr. Garvey, had reached this division, the trend of the addresses delivered at a meeting held on this date seemed to forecast coming events, "Spiritual" and consoling were the addresses of Dr. J. P. Bonilla, Mr. D. E. Allen, Mrs. M. Ingleton, Dr. D. E. Thorpe, and Mr. A. O. Walte, president of the division. As a result of this meeting, the minds of the members and friends were somewhat prepared for the news of our leader's imprisonment. As soon as the Negro World arrived confirming the rumors, an executive meeting of the officers of the division was called, and arrangements made for a great mass meeting on Wednesday, February 18, President Walter presided at this meeting and encouraging addresses were delivered by Messrs.

SIBULL BOCAS DEL TORO The hearts of the members of Sibul Division are in sackcloth and ashes because of the imprisonment of the Honorable Marcus Garvey. But we remember that all leaders have to endure persecution. We cannot forget Paul, who was beaten with rods, stoned and imprisoned. At this critical moment, we are appealing to the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world to stand by our leader and to deliver him from the hands of the enemies of freedom and liberty. As we realize that Christ was crucified for falling humanity and for the doctrines He preached, but that did not present religion from spreading throughout the world. So it is with the Universal Negro Improvement Association at this time. Appeals for contributions to the Defense Fund are receiving generous rebuse. BOCAS DEL TORA, C. A.

No tratemos de ser lo mejor o lo peor de otras razas; si tratemos ser lo mejor de la nuestra. Dejemos a los fanáticos, a los ignorantes y endirodos que sigan con su decantada superioridad; mantengamos nosotros nuestra espina dorsal recta, sin dobleces humillantes que nos denigren. El mismo blanco-sentiria mas respeto por aquel individuo de nuestra raza que se levante, debido a sus propios esfuerzo, y mantenga incolume su dignidad de hombre, su entidad de ciudadano y el respeto de su raza. Asi la raza blanca do America y el mundo entero será infomado, que lo mejor de la raza negra no es la clase de inmendigos que viven a espinasas de las otras razas, supicando protección para el sostenimiento de su coteria; sino que esa misma raza blanca juzgará que dentro del todo de los negros hay un grupo honrado, que lucha y se respeta a si mismo, que no se denigra pidiendo suyda si protection para sostenener egosimiles individuales ó de grupos; pero que son elementos que laboray por la dignificación de una raza, que tiene derecho a un reconocimiento al igual que las danza, y que solo aspira a que se la juega justicia y se la considera tan llena de que, tan lunga de baja como ha demostrado que forman la horizontalidad química y viscosidad por la Nafudinia, por Dios ó la Providencia, quien en sus designos, no denomina diferencia ninguna en el clave o su encargo de la piel de tal o cual por humano. Spanish Section Confando plenamente en la sinceridad y bien probado patriotismo del periodico que usid dirige, y al cual consideramos con una autoridad indiscutible para traitar de cualquier asunto patriotico, o de intereses nacionales, por su limpio historical nunca desmentido, y que ha hecho honor de su lema: Diario Cubano para el pueblo Cubano', es por lo que no hemos dudado on dirigirnos a usted en los momentos tristes en que en esta ciudad de Santa Clara, un grupo de malvados movidos por sentimientos puramente egoistas, pretenden revivir entre cubanos antiguos rencores casi olvidados ya, de prejuicios raciales. La organización de la raza en pro de su adelanto—Los que interceptan el progreso de una raza apurarán el acilbar del remordimiento—Las aspiraciones de nuestra organización—Hemos de mantener firmes en el sustento de nuestro ideal—El reajuste universal a cargo del poder divino y del poder humano—Ningún pueblo tiene que dar satisfacciones al esforzarse por su adelanto—Visión de una nueva era de prosperidad La maravillosa-potencialidad de la organización se deja sentir actualmente en todas las ramas del esfuerzo humano. Ya sea en la industria, en la sociedad, en la política o en la guerra, es la fuerza de la organización lo que realmente cuenta; de aquí que no se pueda recomendar otro paso mejor para nuestra salvación racial. que el medio y manera de organizarnos entre nosotros mismos. En Santa Clara no existen, ni han existido jamás, odios d'azras, cualquiera que haya permanecido en esta pacifica población, siquiera por breve tiempo, podrá haber comprobado la fraternal cordialidad en que constantemente viven todos los elementos que constituyen el nucleo de esta ciudad en todos sus componentes, pero he aqui que en estos momentos en que con mayor violencia se han desatado las ambiciones políticas, hombres llenos de maldad y desprovenidos de ningun escrupulo, pretenden realizar el logro de sus mal contenidas pasiones, lanzando sobre esta tranquila población la funesta chispa del racismo, de cuya odiosa obra esperan obtener un magnífico resultado. Hemos sido pasto de los duchos y equilibristas políticos, así como también se nos ha usado como mina explotable en todos los movimientos de esta vida material en que subsistimos, por la condición infortunada de nuestra desorganización. Debido a tal condición nuestra, es que por centinares de años hemos sido presa facil de aquellos que busearon un medio beneficio; sometiéndonos a una esclavitud de recuerdos bochornosos y denigrantes. Si continuamos desorganizados, estaremos sometidos a una abyección eterna, perdiendo por lo tanto en estas grandes exigencias de la vida moderna, la ventaja de considerarnos realmente preparados para abordar los problemas que tengamos que resolver, dentro del siclo de civilización en que giran los otros grupos raciales, con la preparación conveniente para la lucha por la subsistencia. Nuestra organización es un movimiento que tiene a una cooperación y unión racial ilimitada. Anhelamos traer a la humanidad un poco más cerca hacia nosotros lo que ha estado anteriormente, porque hemos realizado que en la tiraitez del Este con el Oeste y del Norte contra el Sur, no llegaremos a ningún provecho; solamente quedarán un sentimiento amargo de un estado cañico, de ruina, creado por nosotros mismos, por nuestra ceguera de alma y nuestra falta de cooperación; para la ayuda mutua y la salvación del todo racial a que pertenecemos. Sabido es que en las últimas elecciones celebradas en esta provincia, obtuvo el triunfo el partido liberal, y como este está integrado por una inmensa mayoria de elementos de la raza de color, estos se mueven activamente haciaendo las consiguientes gestiones para obtener la parte proporcional que entienden debe correspondierles en los puestos públicos, y de aquí dimanan los acontecinientes que se suceden, pues los elementos dirigentes del partido liberal, que tienen la oblación de aceptar y reconocer los méritos de debe politicos, han creido fácil y expeditivo el procedimiento de lanzar sobre el elemento de la raza de color, la calumniosa especie de que pretenden obfender y obfender contra la raza blanca del pais, con la finalidad de colocarlos en una situación difícil y resventajosa, y saldar de una y para siempre tantos y tantos compromisos adquiridos con ofertas y promesas que nunca tuvieron la intención de cumplir. Podemos inny bien imaginarnos nosotros mismos como un gran pueblo unido, coni un solo fin, creyendo en un mismo Dios y teniendo un destino conun. Ver cuatrocientos millones de nosotros unidos como un solo haz y firmes como un solo hombre, es pues el deseo de todos los que laboramos por llevar avante el gran objetivo de esta organización. Es una verdad que el materialismo del siglo XX ha relegado las naciones y razas-interesadas, de manera que la realización del ideal de unión pertenezca a lo remoto; pero no intentemos sepultar o destruir los sagrados principios porque así lo imponga las circunstancias, y lo exija una edad petulante, huérfana de conciencia, despoblada de alma, para llevar a cabo la unificación de los elementos afines, que compongan la madre común de tal o cual grupo racial. El tiempo no se debe a si mismo; a nosotros corresponde el salvarlo y llevarlo a su menor expresión. La labor que sobre nosotros descansa, no es el hacer causa común e identifernos con el egismo y sentimiento de rapiña dominante en los otros elementos, sino el crearnos algo original, algo que sea nuestro, una idea que centralice nuestras aspiraciones, y conformar nuestra vida de manera que seamos únicos y tengamos un yo racial que no se destruya, y se extienda a una perpetuidad indisoluble. Es infortunado a la verdad el que nos encontremos aún fragmentados, siendo los únicos que vivimos sin poder someternos a una organización eficiente. Otros han tenido la gran ventaja de haberse organizado muchos siglo ha; así pues, lo que parece innecesario para ellos bajo un punto de vista 'racial', es para nosotros impermente necesario. Por tanto, podemos asegurar sin faltar en lo más minimo a la verdad, que los verdaderos autores de esta farsa siñiestra son en primer término, los enoberbecidos hermanos Víssquez, secundados por muchos otros satélites que viven y medran a su sombra, y a los cuales todo el pueblo villaclara senila silenciosamente como responsable de esta obra funesta. Ningún pueblo, ninguna raza podrá sobrevivir, a menos que tenga in menti un fin o un propósito determinado. Debemos conocer de antemano el progreso de nuestra existencia. Nuestro programa dacial hoy dia estriba en constituiños en un pueblo emancipado, unido y progresista. Necesitamos adelantar en toda la línea: social, religiosa, industrial, educativa y politicamente; necesitamos la creación de un nivel común entre nosotros, que nos ponga en condiciones de acompañar y de establecer una competencia equitativa con las otras razas. Esto es lo que se hace necesario que algín periodico cubiano exponga ante la faz de Cuba, poniendo así en descubierto la hurda farga del racismo con sus maquinadores, y llevar de esta suerte la paz y tranquilidad necesaria a todos los hogares. cubanos, hoy grandemente alarmados por las graves noticias puestas en circulación. El mundo no está en disposición de dividir los desposos del materialismo, sino que por el contrario, cada grupo busca por si solo en engranecerse a si mismo, a espensas de aquellos que han perdido o ignoran los intrigues de los acontecimientos humanos, en la dirección del instinto de la propia preservación. El ngrojo envuelvo por este ambiente, no tiene otra alterativa que seguir hacia adelante, y en el torbellino que presenta la atmósfera de los intereses raciales en que se resuelve, tiene que laborar, por la generación presente y guardar arrestos y energías para aquellas de la posteridad. En lo que al servicio de la raza concierne, la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra tiene trazado su programa, respecto a su implantación y promocion. Nosotros nos sentimos tan bien justificado en ello, que no tenemos ningun resumen apologético que hacer. Confiamos en que usted procedera en este caso de acuerdo con los dictados de su conciencia, creemos cumplir con un deber al informarlo, y si esta carta merece el privilegio de ser publicada, veríamos colmados nuestros más yhementes anhelos. Es una tontada el que creamos que el mundo pueda arreglarse por mera casualidad; es Dios y el hombre los que reajustan el universo. El Gran Omnipotente actúa indiferentemente y su plan y su proposito, pasan por el crisol de una acción humana. En su directo e inspirado profetismo El prometio que el dia de Etiopia habia de venir, no porque el mundo cambiase sus sentimientos prejudiciosos en favor de nosolros, sino por el abrazo fraternal, levantando hacia el Nuevas manos en sefal de reconocimiento de un derecho de equidad. Ello así mismo no implica una mera prueba física; sino que determina el esfuerzo universal e independente de rodearnos con la plena gloria, que como hombres y como humanidad no corresponde. Con toda consideración y respeto. Varios Villacarneños. Ningun negro, ya sea americano, europeo o africano, será sinceramente respetado, hasta que la raza se emcipe a si misma como un todo, por medio de sus mismos adelitos, por medio de su mismo progreso, y desiccante el empase de prejudice universal con que se le mira en el presente. El negro tendrá que instalar su propio gobierno, su industria, su urte, su clencia, su literatura y su cultura para que el mundo se detenga a considerarla y a respetarla. Hasta entonces seremos los salidou de una raza superior, kinderporten de una civilización, siendo nada más que los superiores de una estado de queo, impuesto por el sistema social de sistemas disa. El negro, especialmente el cubano que vive la vida mas azarosa, después de haber contribuido a la independencia de su país, no debe mirar con desprecio los actos que viene realizando la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, por cuyo motivo y en beneficio del negro en general guarda prision nuestro presidente el honorable Marcus Garvey, viciinia de la envidia, de la maldad y de la calumnia, como pago reservado a los grandes idealistas de las causas justas y de los derechos de una raza como la nuestra. Nuestro, elemento aquí vive aislado y acosado, apesar de que hay aun quien se empena en pregonar la fraternidad del negro y del blanco en Cuba; nuestro elemento aquí esta incapacitado-para alardear de que goza de los-fueros del derecho, en un país que con gran abnegación conquistó en los campos de la guerra, para sér luego anulado en la paz. Desaparecido el general Estenzo, quien hizo germinar en el ánimo del negro la ambición a inmiscuirse en los asuntos públicos de este país, haciéndole ver que sus derechos estaban vulnerados, este es aún presa de una despeocupación abominable. Mientras continúa aún prestando muy poca o ninguna atención al desarrollo de sus intereses económicos, por los cuales nuestra organización lucha en todas partes, la otra raza representada por el clero, selecciona el dia del natalicio del gran Marti, el apostol de la independencia, quien dijo: UNA REPUBLICA CON TODOS Y PARA TODOS, para colocar la primera piedra de un edificio en donde los negros no tendran acceso. El negro cubano no debe pasar por desaperciobido estos acontecimientos, sino inspirarse en el ideal que sustenta la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, y protejarla con su cooperación para hacerla cada día más, prepotente. No debe decaear nuestro animo por el hecho de que nuestro honorable presidente se halla actualmente secluido en una prisión; ello es conceptuado como un timbre de gloria para la noble causa, que a costa de grandes esfuerzos y mavores sacrificios defiende. Demostremos pues al honorable Marcus Garvey que somos dignos de sus sacrificios, danlo a la organización que tan dignamente preside, todo el soporte y toda la confianza de que es meritoria. Tal debe ser el dilema del negro en todas partes, especialmente aquila, en donde se da oido a las frases laudables de que somos objeto en periodos electorales, de parte del otro elemento. Tiempo ya de que laboremos en pro de nuestro propio beneficio, para que en no lejano dia oltengamos universalmente la representation que corresponde a una raza respecida, y que goza de un mejoramiento económico.

Magazine Section Harvard Expedition Head Tells of Great Discovery in Egypt Near the Pyramid of Giza, 4,000 B. C. —Valuable for Historical Purposes BOSTON, March 10.—The tomb found at Giza by the Boston Museum- Harvard expedition is not that of either Senefeuera or Cheops, Dr. George A. Relaser, head of the expedition, who is now here, said today. Dr. Relaser, who before leaving Egypt planned the work that resulted in the uncovering of the tomb, said he believed the sarcophagus disclosed by the expedition to be that of a member of the royal family, probably a princess. "According to my way of thinking, Cheops was buried in his pyramid and Senefcuur at Dahabur, fifteen miles south of the Pyramid of Cheops." Dr. Reisner said. "Their sonchaphten were never found but their tomb was cut out they had been phipluered. The fact that the tomb was cut by Cheops merely means that the person was a member of the King's entourage." LONDON, March 19 (Associated Press). Egg biologists here agree that if the tomb, found by the Boston-Harvard expedition deep down in the rocks near the great pyramid at Giza proves to be that of the Pharaon, who immediately preceded the renowned builder Cheops, its importance may be greater than that of Tutankhamen, because there thousands of years older, and the contents may throw, light upon that remote period about which very little is known. The Pharaoh Senefet, whose name is variously spelled by English Egyptologists, was the first King of the Fourth dynasty (about 4000 B.C.) white Tut-ankh-Amen reigned as late on the Eighteenth dynasty, the history of which is fairly familiar. Moreover, Tut-ankh-Amen was a relatively important King, while Senefet was regarded, as one of the founders of the Egyptian Empire, and a man of great enterprise and energy. Sir Walfs Budge, who lately retired from the post of keeper of Egyptian antiquities in the British Museum, told the Daily Express that if the tomb proved to be that of Senefet and had not been plundered it was almost certain to yield objects of philoxene value. The Catro dispatches yesterday telling of the discovery said, the sarcophagus had been unmilled intact, with much funeral furniture inside. Near the sarcophagus, which was a large one of marble, with gold decorated coloured and resting upon what seemed to be a plate, was the seal of Senefet. Sur Wallis described Senefeu as being "genealogically a middy who came from nowhere". He probably came from northern Italy, the scientific added; certainly he was not an Egyptian; and none of the really great kings of Egypt was of Egyptian nationality. Senefeu one of the greatest of them, was the first sovereign who so far as known attempted to make a colonial empire for Egypt, as his expedition to Sinai and the Sidan show. Also he gained control of the Red Sea and but was to navigate the Mediterranean. There are records of part of this fleet taking solar wood from Lebanon to Egypt. Senefeu built the monument, commonly known as the Pyramid of Medium. His wife was Mett-Tefa, who when widowed, received homely protection from the succeeding pharaohs, cheops and chephren. Dr. Alan Gardiner, another noted Egyptologist, although greatly interested in the discovery, which he believes will prove vastly important, doubts whether the tomb penetrated is actually that of Senefeu. That pharaoh, he says, built two pyramids, neither of which is at Giza, and his body was most likely in one of these, probably the Pyramid of Medum. The British Egyptologists generally congratulate the Americans upon their enterprise and good fortune. CAIRO, Egypt, March 19 (Associated Press)—Although it is generally hoped that the newly discovered tomb at Giza, unearthy by the Boston-Harvard expedition, contains the mummy of the Pharaoh Seneferu and records of his reign, there is considerable doubt as to this among the Egyptologists here. A number of them consider it unlikely that a king who built himself two pyramids—at Medum, and Dahshur—should finally have been so modest as to order his own interment ninety feet below the surface, thus obliterating the personality of the powerful and prosperous quler. They therefore express the opinion that it is unwise to raise great hopes at present least the public be disappointed if the sarcophagus reveals only the mummy of a member of the king's family or even perhaps some retainer, such as serving man or barber. It is pointed out that observation of the interior of the tomb so far has been only slight, as only a relatively small opening has been pierced, and the light was none too good when the observations were made.

(Continued from last lecture) It: "What God has done His children can do, because He wills and they obey." This statement is difficult to understand in the light of our past, theological teachings and our impressions of God made through our Christian teaching in colleges and churches. We found it profitable and: ad-antiqueous to limit man, in his approach to God, and God-like powers here, while we knew the truth, but were unwilling to lot the followers know, I wonder if the broad expansive sea, with no land in night, doesn't influence me now to speak in this strain, or' is it the power of my Father than gives utterance through me? What gives that God one thing is certain, that God has given him all His children, but he has given unlimited power to all of them, and if they will like the Christ, His begotten Son, subscribe to his teachings and His will their will, He will reveal Himself fully to them, know that which to most men seems hard, has been done by Carvey, because he understood God. I know that he has relied upon God, and God'he been mercifully inclined toward him, because he has done some of the things God wanted him to do. I know that God will do for every man what he has done for the U. N. I. A. if he will stand the crucial test. Here comes the truth." The test calls for heroic effort. The test calls for suffering. The test calls for sacrifice. The test calls for the giving up of all personal interests, and even death itself. Oh, most of us go just as far as we leave and fishes last, and then we turn back with the multiple. The masses are clamoring and some of us must go all the way. The masses are saying, "Give us that larger freedom and real manhood rights, where as God's children, we may be heard and treated like Him." The masses are saying, "Give us this light and we will rise to the decision." The masses are saying, "Show us honest leadership and we will be true." They are saying, "Tice us men in whom we can believe and we will approach God through their teachings." Here again is the truth. The masses do not think, and we are able to think, should be true to God and the people we lead, or try to lead. We will do because God did, and Christ said, "Together works than these we shall do." What is the humour? Your faith, our faith, and that alone. For we are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus. Let us then possess Africa. It is ours, a God is a God of all flesh and He has given the bounds of all nations. We are always in a strong land. Your home with God is a natural soul united. RELIGIOUS AWAKENING MANIFESTED IN JAPAN RELIGIOUS AWAKENING MANIFESTED IN JAPAN Salvation Army Relief Work Is Credited With Creating a Spiritual Revival From the New York Times From the New York Times Commander Eugene Booth of the Salvation Army has just received a cable dispatch from Japan sharing that, as a direct result of Salvation Army relief work during the earthquake there has been an unprecedented religious awakening; among people in and around Tokyo and Yokohama. Commander Booth has transmitted the message to Salvation Army officers throughout the United States. The message, signed by Major Ernest Pugmire, financial secretary for the work in Japan, says: "The poor people turn to Salvationists as their friends and crowd Army folks as never before. Needless to say, the Army is taking full advantage of the unparalleled opportunity to be of assistance to them, as will be shown by the fact that during the nine months immediately following the disaster an unparalleled number in such a short time. The people saw our relief work as a practical demonstration "of the gospel we had been teaching them." The message makes it clear that the help given by American Salvationists and their friends has had a distinct effect upon the preservation of peace and good will between Japan and the United States. Japan is one of the ten distinct missionary fields throughout the world in which Salvation Army work is maintained by an annual week of self-dental on the part of Salvationists in all parts of the country in the Eastern Hemisphere of the United States. Self-Dental Work occurs this year from March 29 to April 5. In Japan the work is carried on in 124 centers by 292 commissioned officers. The work, established in 1895 in Japan, has manifested a steady progressiveness which, in recent years, has been extraordinary in many respects. The visit of the founder, General William Booth, in 1907, when there were only 20 centers of work and 150 officers and employees, brought the Army's aims and purposes especially before the nation and as a consequence of the better understanding thus developed, a wider opportunity for service was created. Considerable development in sociol service has been witnessed in recent years.

The Imperial House, impressed by the practical results of the work, has manifested a genuine and practical sympathy and, during the earthquake period entrusted the Salvation Army with thousands of dollars worth of materials for distribution.

We pray for the deliverance of our leader from the nauseate prison cell, and may God he with him in this hour of trial, and may He also be with those who are now at the helm. FRASER BERNARD, Central Ri Cauto, Cuba. To the Editor of The Negro World: Allow me space in your valuable paper, to say that my wife and I agree with those who say, "Let each member of the organization give one dollar to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company to help in the re- demption of Africa and the complete emancipation of every Negro." My wife and I will gladly give a dollar each. 10SE LEWIS. To, the Editor of The Negro World: Let us go on, to victory. Let us light the good fight. Let us holdly rally to the cause, so that our imprisoned leader may ever get tidlings, that we are loyal to his work, and that no f- may arise in his mind to worry him. Our only help for him, now is to keep him encouraged by holding up hihh the red, black and green. MRS. ADELLA DUNN MOODIE Central Vertentes, Camaguey, Cuba. To the Editor of The Negro World: The Negroes with whom I have talked since Mr Garvey has been imprisoned are more determined than they were before. And we will ever try to assist his cause, because we know that he has been a loyal leader. We will never be downhearted. We will rally to the cause until Africa is redeemed. Now, as Negroes, let us be as one with the same aim, one God, and one destiny. VON M. GORDON. Ciego de Avila, Cuba.

Right is right, even though it be on a scaffold or behind prison bura. There will always beools who only think of themselves, but the wise man uses his wisdom for the good of his race. Prison walls mean, the darkest hour before the dawn, but the sun will shine again and be as gloriously bright if Negroes will keep the faith in God and their leader. MITTIE B. HOWARD. Detroit, Mich. Can I Help the Cause To the Editor of The Negro World: I am glad to know that my people are trying to redeng our country, Africa, and I will do all in my power to help. MARTHA WRIGHT. Framingham, Mass. Payment of Dues Great Help to Organizations To the Editor of the Negro World: We are convinced more than ever that might is right, and that injustice, selfishness, greed and prejudice are the fruits of civil hearts. Whatever may be the cause for the imprisonment of our leader, nothing will dampen our determination to put the program over. Shall we stop to pine and cry? No, we will carry on, until the battle for Africa's redemption is won. Shall the warfare be halted because our general is captured, so to speak? I urge that we spread the propaganda, win new members, grit, above all, pay due regularly. Pay your yearly taxation and such other donations as are requisite and necessary. Let it be a strong pull and a pull altogether. JOHN MATTHEWS. Santurce, Porto Rico. Standing by Mr. Garvey In Beautiful Demerara It is my desire at this time to let my voice be heard in the fight of the survival of the district. Since the inception of Garveyism in British Guiana I claim the honor to be the first member enlisted under the banner of the Red, Black and Green, to fight, if needs be, for a free and redeemed Africa. On the 17th of August Sister Roberts and myself, along with other enthusiastic friends of the race, formed a division at the above residence, and hope in the near future to send for our charter. We are prepared to stand back of the Hon. Marcus Garvey in his program: home and abroad. JULIAN H. HILL. Georgetown, Demerara. To the Editor of the Negro World: Please allow me space in your noble paper to say that even though Mr. Garvey is in prison at this time, yet we are with him to the end. As is a most mutual thing, the sad news spread a glom over those of us who love the U. N. L. A., but we have no time to weep. Mr. Garvey is only making the sacrifice that all worthwhile leaders have made. There is nothing at all strange about it. Our present task is to preserve the organization at any cost. We will stand by Garvey until we reach our goal. ADELAIDE A. GOFF Belize, British Honduras. Nature's Way of Forcing the Hair to grow long, soft and healthy.

IF GREW HAIR on a hairdo that had been held long Presidents of New York and Cincinnati Divisions Have a Pleasant Chat and Get a Ringing Message for the Members From President- General Garvey Written for *The Negro World* by GEORGE A. WESTON "Is this Atlanta?" "Yes," said the writer. "My heart leaped once or twice. I got dressed and hurried up the steps and out into the station. I was going straight, through you. I saw a sign marked "Colored Waiting room." Ah, this Georgia; not New York. Playing sent a telegram to Mr. Ware stating the time of my arrival I waited a short period to see if anyone would come to meet me. When nobody arrived, I proceeded to the home of the treasurer of the Atlanta Division whose address I had given. Arriving at the home of the treasurer and awaiting an answer to my ring, I was surprised to see a messenger boy arrive to deliver the message from me which should have been delivered the night before. The messenger explained that the boy who started to deliver the message the night before had been held up and was afraid to come back. After breakfast, I went to the house of the secretary of the Atlanta Division and met Mr. Ware. He immediately wanted to know why I had not wired him. I explained that I had brought the telegram with me. We conversed with Mrs. Jones, the secretary, for a short while and then departed to the Federal prison. Our hearts were heavy as we rode along in the rear or "colored" section of the car. In the time we arrived at the pentagonal, which proved to be one of the most imposing buildings in Atlanta. As we pissed in, my thoughts went back to the scene in front of the post office on February 6, when a large crowd gathered to see the champion of true liberty danced to two Deputy U. S. Marshals and being faken to the Tombis to await the hour when he would be sent to this very place. I say in my mind's eye, his followers waving a good-bye, with tears in their eyes. Our hearts were heavy as we approached the prison. The outer guard asked, "Where are you going?" Whon do you wish to see? We replied, "The Honbleurable Marcus Garvey." "Are you his attorneys?" "No, his employees; one from New York and one from Cincinnati." "You are here on business, then?" "Yes." "All right, go ahead." We turned South to the right and approached the massive structure up the granite steps. Another guard met at the top and opened a heavy iron door. Upon being asked our mission we told him that we wished to see Marcus Garvey. We passed into the lobby and left some, money, for Mr. Garvey with the clerk there. After receiving a receipt, we were told to sit there and wait. We waited and waited. Many people who came through the lobby after we did were shown through the second gate, and still we waited. Once the officer said, "Your man is a little hard to find." After an hour had passed, an officer came and said, "Come, now." We picked up our papers hervorously and hurried with the officer past the turnkey at the second gate. Along the corridor we went and into a reception room. Our chief at last! He rose and greeted us with the same ring in his voice, "Hello, Ware, how is Clineinnat!" Hello, Weston, how is Liberty Hall." His eyes flashed as he talked with us about the organization. We soon became light hearted again. Our gloominess departed, as this man to whom millions look for light and leadership stood before us fearless and without remorse. And he is so unselfish. He forgot his environment. His only thought was for the people; to know if they were carrying on. The thought came to me that truly he is proving that, "Stone walks do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage." This ram is as free as the air. He said, "I have no regrets. The penitentiary was not made for me. I have nothing to be penitent for. My conscience is clear." And he jokingly added, "I am getting mine while I am young. My enemies will get thelars when they are old, which will make it harder for them to bear. If I were going to be hanged tonight, it would be the same with me as if I were enjoying the companionship of my dear ones, just so long as I am being imprisoned or hanged for the freedom of my people." "My one concern," he said, "in will my people allow their enemies to turn them from the goal of an Africa redeemed. My life and my all is laid upon the altar, of the advancement of my race. You may hang me, so long as the rope with which it is done binds universal (Negrodom into one great African nation)." To the Editor of The Negro World: To the Editor of The Negro World: We can make our movement a success only through co-operation. Very few of us could have bought the Booker T. Washington alone, but $3,500 of us did. Now let us parcel ourselves out in that number in every state and country, to build factories, 3,500 putting $5 each month, amount to $210,000 yearly, that we keep over two hundred of our girls making $1,000 annually, and some to spare. If we cannot get 3,500 persons to sink $1 monthly, probably we might get 7,000 to sink $2.50, and so on according to their pockets. You cannot expect our tailors and dressmakers to compete with the fellow across the street single-handed whose forefathers were in business when our ancestors were in bondage. In each town of any size you will find one good dressmaker, shoe and hat maker, and the same is true of the tailor. They are just making a living. They cannot afford to pay for the kind of help they need to run their business. Rather than be bothered with a lot of trash they will use their wives if they are married or no one at all. Now there is our chance. Let us say to them, "We will furnish the money to pay the help, get you to supervise the business and give you a percentage on all sales." Your salary is guaranteed. We do not expect to make a dime for the next five years. We want to see some of your educated girls and boys do something else besides manual work. We know that all of you do not believe in the movement, but you have something to make it a success and we want you to train others. When we have gained the confidence of the public as to our business ability we can sell stock, form companies, operate large commercial enterprises, open a substantial business that will in turn pay a handsome dividend. There are a quarter of a billion dollars spent annually by colored people for clothes and the colored business men get very little of this sum." We need trained business men and who are going to train them? Look at the professional men of our group. They have been trained and they are making good. If we can unite under this plan, those who come into our community to put our business men out of business will watch their steps. Suppose we could combine in this way and establish factories in all the larger cities in this country, Central and South America, it would give those who come out of college every year a different view of commencement day exercises. Those who have attended the various business schools of the country will remember seeing the principal enter the classroom from time to time saying he has a position for a young lady as stenographer in one of the largest commercial houses in the city, and he will say he has several other positions. He will continue. In fact, every student in this college will be placed according to his or her ability when he READ! THINK! More than 130,000 Injured! Over ten million automobile running!
