LET'S PUT IT OVER The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro THE Negro World Reaching the Mass of Negroes The Best Advertising Medium A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race VOL. XVIII. No. 24 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JULY 25, 1925 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GREATER NEW YORK SEVEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U.S.A. TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES BANISH VAIN DESIRES OF BECOMING PRESIDENTS OF FRANCE AND AMERICA; AIM AT THE POSSIBLE IN AFRICA Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: This week I propose to continue my talk to you on the necessity of getting a sane and settled outlook if we are to establish ourselves in the world and make an independent contribution to civilization. The Negro is not happy; but, to the contrary, is extremely miserable. He is miserable because the world is closing fast around him, and if he does not strike out now for his own preservation it is only a question of a few more decades when he will be completely outdone in a world of strenuous competition for a place among the fittest of God's creation. The Negro is dying out, and he is going to die faster and more rapidly in the next fifty years than he has in the past three hundred years. There is only one thing to save the Negro, and that is an immediate realization of his own responsibilities. Unfortunately, we are the most careless and indifferent people in the world! We are shiftless and irresponsible, and that is why we find ourselves the wards of an inherited materialism that has lost its soul and its conscience. Building on Sand You talk about the progress we have made in America and elsewhere among the people of our acquaintance. But what progress is it? A progress that can be snatched away from you in forty-eight hours, because it has been built upon sand. Can you blame the white man for thinking when red and yellow men are knocking at his door? Can you blame the tiger for being on the defensive when the lion approaches? And thus we find that generations ago, where the Negro was not given a thought as a world competitor, he is now regarded as an encumbrance in a civilization to which he has materially contributed little. Men do not build for others; they build for themselves. The age and our religion demand it. What are you going to expect—that white men are going to build up in America and elsewhere and hand it over to us? If we are expecting that, we are crazy, we have lost our reason. Misguided by the Unscrupulous The laws of self-preservation force every human group to look after itself and protect its own interest, hence so long as the American white man or any other white man, for that matter, realizes his responsibility, he is bound to struggle to protect that which is his and his own, and I feel that the Negro today who has been led by the unscrupulous of our race has IT IS FOOLISH TO BELIEVE A DESPISED NEGRO MINORITY WILL BE ALLOWED TO RULE A PROUD WHITE MAJORITY WOULD-BE NEGRO LEADERS WHO BE LIEVE OTHERWISE ARE DECEIVERS ALL MEN BUILD FOR THEMSELVES, AND THE NEGRO MUST MAKE UP HIS MIND TO BUILD FOR HIMSELF IN AFRICA U. N. I. A. WILL SPEAK THE TRUTH. COST WHAT IT MAY been grossly misguided in the direction of expecting too much. from the civilization of others. No camouflage and no promise of goodwill will solve the problem. What guarantee have we, what lease have we on the future that the man who treats us kindly today will perpetuate it through his son or his grandson tomorrow? Ability to Protect Self Races and peoples are only safeguarded when they are strong enough to protect themselves, and that is why we appeal to the four hundred million Negroes of the world to come together for self-protection and self-preservation. We do not want what belongs to the great white race or the yellow race. We want only those things that belong to the black race. Africa is ours. To win Africa we will give up America; we will give up our claim in all other parts of the world; but we must have Africa. We will give up the vain desire of having a seat in the White House of America, of having a seat in the House of Lords in England, of being President of France for the chance and opportunity of filling these positions in a country of our own. That is how the Universal Negro Improvement Association differs from other organizations. Other organizations, especially in America, are fighting for a political equality which they will never get, and never win, in the face of a majority opposition. We win so much today and lose so much tomorrow. We will lose our political strength in the North in another few years, as we lost it in the South during reconstruction. We fill one position today, but lose two tomorrow, and so we drift on and on until we have been completely obliterated from Western civilization. Changes Among Negroes You may ask me what good has the Universal Negro Improvement Association done, what it has accomplished within the last six years? We will point to you the great changes that have taken place in Africa, the West Indies and America. In the West Indies black men have been elevated to high positions by the British Government so as to offset and counteract the sweeping influence of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Several of the colonies have been given larger constitutional rights. In Africa the entire West Coast has been benefited. Self-government has been given to several of the African colonies, and native Africans have been elevated to higher positions, so as to offset the sweeping spirit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the Continent of Africa. In America several of our men have been given prominent positions; Negro commissions have been appointed to attend to affairs of state; Negro Consuls have also been appointed. Things that happened in America within the last six years to advance the political status, the social and industrial status of the Negro were never experienced before. All that is traceable to the Universal Negro Improvement Association within the last six years. Negro Thought Better Of Today In the great game of politics you do not see the immediate results at your door, but those who are observant will be able to trace the good that is being done from the many directions whence it comes. If you were to take a survey of the whole world today of Negroes you will find that we are more highly thought of in 1925 than we were in 1914. England, France and the European and Colonial powers regard the Universal Negro Improvement Association with a certain amount of suspicion because they believe that we are antagonistic. But we are not. We are not antagonistic to France, to England or Italy, nor any of the white powers in Europe. We are only demanding a square deal for our race. Let Us Be Fair As we deliberate in our local conventions on the many problems confronting us during the month of August, let us not lose control of ourselves; let us not forget that we are the mouthpiece of four hundred millions; let us not forget that it is our duty to so act as to help humanity everywhere, whether it be black or white. So, let no prejudice cause us to say or do anything against the interest of the white man or the yellow man; let us realize that the white man has the right to live, the yellow man has the right to live, and all that we desire to do is to impress them with the fact that we also have the right to live. The Cry from the Cane Fields My firm purpose, my one purpose in life, is to work for the salvation of my race: Because of the cries from the grave I hear the cry of 300 years, the cry of my great-grandparents in the cotton and cane fields; I see the hard taskmaster drawing his lash across their backs; I hear them cry out in mortal agony: "It pains; it pains; it pains!" I see them fall under the lash; I see them fall to the ground; I see them buried, and I hear the wailing souls from heaven and from the regions below. I hear the cry of my mother and father and of the millions of Negroes who have been brutalized: "Go on, Garvey! Go on! Go on!" And so, fellow men, because of that cry that comes from the grave I have given up all material desires; I have given up all temporal pleasures and have dedicated myself to the sacred principles of the U. N. I. A., the emancipation of the Negro race and a free and redeemed Africa. Liberty or Death! It may not come today; it may not come tomorrow; it may not come for five, ten, twenty or fifty years from now. But sooner or later it will come to those who desire liberty. With the rest of the members of the U. N. I. A., I repeat the historic words of Patrick Henry: "I care not what others may say, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death." And because we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association want the Negro to live that is why we are preparing him for nationhood in Africa so that he can stand firm in his creation that God Almighty has given us and enjoy its beauties and its benefits co-equal with the rest of God's people. English Battalions Must Get Out or Be Swept Out, Says Noted General GREAT CHINESE GENERAL SETTING FORTH COUNTRY'S WRONGS, VOWS VENGEANCE ON WHITE EXPLOITER England and Other Foreign Nations Who Hold Iron Grip on China Must Get Out or They Will Be Thrown Out—The Recent Shooting in Shanghai Was Plain Massacre—China Will Canonize as Saints Those Whose Blood Was Shed SHANGHAI, June, 1925.—I have been known throughout the world as the Christian general. I are that during the last few days I have received a new title—now I am "Red." I expect from now on the British press will represent me as China's "Red" general. But whether I am known as the Christian general or the Red general, I am ready to fight the English army under any title. I am tremendously serious about my Christianity, and I put two questions to every recruit: "Do you smoke?" and "Are you a Christian?" My men are forbidden to smoke, drink, gamble or loot, and they swear very little. Yet, cigaretteless as they are, my soldiers know how to fight. Any one of my soldiers who loots loses his head. "Thou shalt not steal" is an army order, the violation of which is punishable by death. And in order that the world may know that, although I am a Christian, I am not so soft, let And I seriously advise the foreigners, be they English, French or Ameri-can, not to beat up their coolies whenever they are inclined to do so, and to show a little more courtesy to Chinamen, because such acts were practiced by the former Czarist government for centuries created such an evil feeling among the Russians that WHEN THEIR DAY OF RECKONING CAME, REASON AND MODERATION FLEW TO THE AIR. We Reap What We Sow. It is true, we reap what we sow. Judging from the tone of the Eng- SMALL AFRICA BE REDEEMED! me quote you one, of the orders I issued, to my troops during one of my recent campaigns: "Sheet the enemy at long range until your ammunition is exhausted, then use your bayonet until it breaks; after that hammer him over the head with the butt of your rifle when that splits, slinch, with him." In another five years there will spring up throughout China; other "Christian generals" as I, and other Chinese armies as mine, who will not smoke gun, gamble or loot, but who will fight. PROVED A MIRACLE TO ME! Says a French Athlete Triangle Laboratories, Inc. About the middle of February I was asked with double pneumonia, lowering my health from 60 pounds to 158 pounds. I could not afford to be sick long, but it seemed that in spite of me calling in the best medical skill that I could afford, I was advised to try a glass treatment. I had no faith in glaucoma and never believed in them. Reductively, I tried many treatments, but no high of 60.90 (five dollars) a box. In the army I read in a French paper in the morning. I read it again, and it although many of my Puddle obtained results. Finally a chemist, friend of my sister, gave me a test. I see me, he becomes berried at the me of me and insisted on Giant-Ox. I determined to my anything else as we I were not interested in it. After taking one boy I did not feel much improved, but deserved change some. I was again, eager to enjoy good health. My service after the Glass-Ox treat- ment should take Giant-Ox only and no Glass-Ox will remain on me. Man and Woman Wanted! That have taken tenio for all parts of element, only to be disappointed by complete failure! A foremost scientist in Germany discovered a new method of building the body with Gland and Iron. The body the blood. The remarkable builder is called Gland-Ox. Gland-Ox is a scientific concentration of rare elements with gland extract, absolutely necessary in restoring the chemical balance of the body and glandular system. THE STARTLING EFFECT OF GLANT-OX "Peter Siner" Goes on Pilgrimage to South In Search of Salvation for His People And I seriously advise the foreigner, be they English, French or American, not to beat up their coolies whenever they are inclined to do so, and to show a little more courtesy to Chinamen, because such acts as were practiced by the former Czarist government for centuries created such an evil feeling among the Russians that WHEN THEIR DAY OF RECKONING CAME, REASON AND MODERATION FLEW TO THE AIR. We Reap What We Sow It is true, we reap what we sow. Judging from the tone of the English language newspapers of the Far East, the people of Shanghai, and even the whole of China, are in repetition against the English. This grotesque accusation is representative of the English frame of mind towards China. For years China has been so weak and the foreigners have been so ruthless that whenever the adventurous nations wanted something that China possessed, under one, pretense or other, they imposed an unjust treaty on our former monarchial government, and inch by inch, foot by foot, they crept into China. For years English imperialists, and later other commercial nations, regarded China as a weak nation with whom they could do as they pleased. Unfortunately for China, they have been justified in this assumption. But the time has come, and the recent Shanghai upheaval is the beginning of that period, when the foreigners in China will have to deal with us in a different manner. The English, the French and other nations in Shanghai are there by virtue of a treaty forced upon the Chinese nation some seventy-five years ago, and the time has come when that treaty will have to be revised. England can begin, a just revolution, and, should England take such a course, other nations would follow. But should England unwisely persist in maintaining her ill-gotten concession on Chinese soil, I assure the world that within ten years the Chinese nation will see to it that every foreigner is swept off her shores. I say ten (Continued on page 10) (From the London Daily Morald) BIRTHRIGHT, by T. S. Stribling. Collins, 7s. 6d. Whenever I hear or read about the color problem in the United States, I cannot repress a feeling of thankfulness that England has escaped this trouble. But if I did occur in England we should be forced by our lack of space to solve it speedily. We could not spare room, as they do in the South ern States, to duplicate each white village with a dirtier, uglier and more sanitary, black village. Peter Siner was half black and half white. His black mother was a wash-erwoman, but somehow he managed to go to Harvard. There he was treated like a human being. He determined to go back South and devote himself to the education of Negroes, so that they might arise from their degraded position. At the outset he was created in a legal matter by a owing white lawyer, and let his prestige as an educated man. More overview than that, the Negroes did not wish to be lifted from their mud. The white people reported them as "worm"; they accepted that variation. "The white blood of the dehumanized of the black blood of the South began to unite itself before Destroy suppression. It imploded to later the suppression of his race; their misery at the hand of most violated the colonial grievous the brutality with which black men were enslaved; the disastrous difficulty which white slaves faced in the civil war continued to increase; and the war was not ended until the slave trade was abolished." South African Women Dare Law Compelling Them to Have Passes (From the Johannesburg Times) The sequel to the arrest, on Friday night, June 5, of five, native women who had determined to dare the new pass law for women and be out after 10:30 without passes, took place in "T" Court, Johannesburg, yesterday. Charges of contravening "Section 8, Ordinance 48 of 1902" (as amended to apply to native women as well as nati- vial women) were brought against Martha. Florence, Alida, Rosie and Sinah. The well of the court was packed to overflowing by a large crowd of en- thusiastic supporters who had as- sembled to witness the proceeding of the "Great Test Case"—as they named it. The five women were Jooked upon as harmless. Mr. McCarthy, who appeared for the defense, asked for a remand until June 11, which was granted. The "test case" is the result of a number of native meetings, characterized by violent and inflammatory speeches. Volunteers were called for to go out and court arrest. Cheers greeted the five who stepped forward, and a sum of "ball money" was quickly subscribed. Majority Reconcilied The majority of the native population on the Rand, however, is already perfectly reconciled to the carrying of passes by native women. A small minority, has seized, on the Ordinance as a peg on which to hang propaganda. and Communist literature and pamphlets have been freely circulated. A severe blow at this movement has been dealt by the tacitful magner in which the police are handling the situation. No notice whatsoever is taken or the meetings or of the subsequent actions of the militant; provided they keep within the bounds of the law. Since the enforcement of the puss law for women, a total of only three arrests has been made in Johannesburg besides the five sent out for the "test case." KIRMAYU. Trans-Jubaland. East Africa.—The turning, over to Italy by Great Britain of that part of the Kenya colony of East Africa, known as Trans-Jubaland took place with the greatest solemnity in the presence of British and Italian troops. British Commander Hope delivered an address in which he said the transfer of the territory to Italy was the consequence of the convention signed in London in July, 1824. Mr. Hope said the occasion was signaling the warm friendship existing between Great Britain and Italy which had been strengthened by common hardships endured in the war with Germany. The British flag was lowered and the Italian flag hoisted in its place amid the booming of cannon and salutes from the soldiers. stantly to pilfer from them, only riveted heavier shackles on their limbs. But when he asked the white employers to pay their servants wages that would enable them to live without stealing, he was suspected of forming a union, and was told that the town was not healthy for him; and the Negroes did not understand why he did not go North, get a job, do well for himself, and leave them alone. "Birthright" is the first of three novels which will tell of Peter. Siner's pilgrimage to find salvation for his people. We leave him at the end of the South, sailing North with his octoroon wife, whom he loves, though "nigrowtown" has made her a thief and a wanter. Will he find self-respecting Negroes and understanding whites in Chicago? Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN Say, "Bayer Aspirin" INSTITI .

SHERRILL AND BOURNE ENTHUSE BELIZE MEMBERS Executive Officers on Business Mission in Belize, Honduras, Deliver Rousing Addresses to Large Audiences (From the Belize Independent) Sir William Sherrill and Sir Clifford Beaume, the distinguished visitors of the Parent Body of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, who have been entertaining large audiences since their arrival continue to make known the high aims and objects for which the Association stands. A very pleasant evening was spent at the Rex Theatre on Sunday last, when a public meeting under the auspices of the Association was staged. Despite unpropitious weather a large number attended to hear the distinguished speakers. An already stated the weather was not as anticipated and some delay was experienced, before a start was made. This handicap, however, was overcome by the presence of the Union Band under the direction of Mr. Fred Clarke, which rendered some excellent concert items before and during the meeting. Mr. C. M. Staine, the local president of the Association, after the preliminary items were concluded, delivered a short speech during which he paid high compliment to Mr. J. S. Martinzer for a poem which he had composed and dedicated to the Association. He also explained that the weather had caused a change in the program as time would not permit the two speakers to address the meeting and it was therefore decided that only one of the gentlemen should speak. He then called upon Sir William to address the meeting. Sir William in rising to address the meeting expressed his great pleasure in doing so. He spoke of the great work the Association had set out to perform and showed the necessity for the cooperation of all members of the race in order that the program might be accomplished and the status of the race improved, and placed on a better foundation that will be sure to command the respect of the world. He paid high tribute to Marcus Garvey, the founder of the Association, as the greatest man the race had yet seen, in having succeeded in organizing millions of Negroes in the short span of three years. He felt that men like Marcus Garvey were especially prepared for the work they performed and were hard to find as they come once in every generation. Garvey was regarded by the enemies of the Association as a dreamer. They regarded him as a fanatic. But the greatest compliment yet paid Marcus Garvey was by those who called him a dreamer. He said. In support of his remarks he directed the attention of his hearers to the pages of history and showed what had been done by dreamers. He spoke of Napoleon, Joan of Arc, Stevenson, Newton and others and said they were also dreamers, and not unlike Marcus Garvey they all demonstrated the superior ability in their youth. In conclusion he expressed his assurance in the program of the Association and was confident nothing would be able to stand before it. The meeting was afterwards brought to a close and all dispersed in the best of spirit. At Liberty Hall the same night at 8 o'clock, Sir Clifford Bourne was the speaker and he further interested members of the race in the aims and objects of the Association. Sir Clifford touched on some very important points during his discourse which must have been helpful and awakening to his hearers. British "Dichards'" Policy Toward India Is "Do Nothing" (From the London Daily News) A statement in answer to Lord Birkbeck's speech on India in the House of Lords on June 9 is issued by T. C. Geoward, D. Chanen Lall and B. Satyumurti, elected Swarajat (House Rule) members of the Indian Legislatures. Lord Stirlowson's speech, it is de- cleared, "wrong-the-the-genuine (Sourajist problem)" and Lord Stirlow- son, "is in our opinion wrongly left to Stil the current movement. In Stills is not at present such a signify- nce to werring a change from the Diabord position." The speech is to add, "an- offer no encompassing error in the text modernly could be important from personities" but electors at present will lower the modernization levels the people of Stills and the United States "have" (From the London Daily News) Problems of the foreign field were discussed by the Bishop of Salisbury in presenting a report of the Missionary Council to the summer session of the Church Assembly, which opened at Westminster July 6. There was, he said, the problem of racial contest, at which the storm center was Kenya. Behind it loomed the question: Where was the principle on which British settlers had the right to invade a black marx country at all? He thought the answer was quite simple, but they had got to face the question as Christians. The outlook in regard to non-Christian countries with which we were being brought into commercial competition was much worse. They had to ask themselves as Christians with what object were, they doing it. He thought there were very good reasons that could be given, but church people were not facing them as Christians or focusing public opinion upon them. They wanted a cabinet of specialists to study these questions in concert with experts, from the political and commercial standpoint. PARIS, July 18. Old war air rivals may be reborn above the mountains of Morocco, according to a report in circulation here tonight. The report says that former German aces, hearing of the organization of a new "Lafayette American Squadron" to fight for the French against the Rifls in Morocco, are organizing a German's squadron to fight for Abd-El-Krim. According to the report it is sportsmanlike rivalry and not hate nor revenge which is actuating the Germans, who simply thrill at the idea of once again meeting their old adversaries in fair combat, as in days of yore. "Let 'em come" was the response of the Lafayetters here to the ruinor. "There one German ace I hope will join," said Charles Kerwood, meditatively. "I don't know his name, but he shot me down once. I've always wanted to try my hand with him again." The Hand of the Tyrant IN BRITISH HONG KONG A "Gazette Extraordinary" authorizes any police officer to arrest and detain anyone not appearing to have regular employment. The Captain-Superintendent of Police is also empowered to order any such person to leave Hong Kong forthwith. Another ordinance prohibits the export of coal except by license. The Governor in Council has also promulgated a regulation empowering two magistrates to inflict punishments including imprisonment for a period not exceeding ten years, and flogging, for offenses punishable under the Arms and Ammunition Ordinance. - Reuter. Motorist Saves Negro Hanged by Farmer WILMINGTON, Del. July 17. Hanged to a tree-yesterday by Clayton Whittington, a farmer living several miles south of here, the life of Benjamin Knott, 16-year-old Negro, was saved by a passing motorist who noticed the youth and cut him down. Whittington admitted hanging the Negro, identified, he said, as one who attempted to assault his four-year-old daughter. The motorist notified Wilmington police, who placed the Negro under arrest. Whittington was not arrested. MANILA. July 17—Governor General Leonard Wood told the Philippine Legislature yesterday that the government should transfer to private enterprise all railroads, mines and agricultural enterprises under its control. Another outstanding feature of his annual message was the possibility of the government going on a cash basis due, to the increase in revenues in 1894. Governor General Wood said the Filipinas are a generally happy and contented people living under improving conditions. JERUSALEM. July 15 (Jewish Telegram) Although a command taken by the presidential section of the Palestinian Movement, Jerusalem, amidst the Jewish population has impelled 160 per cent in the last four and a half years. June 12 it was difficult to be presented究竟, but the general belief in the importance of Jerusalem. In July the Jewish delegation to Palestine was alone 50 per cent, the rest of the group was 15 per cent. BRITISH NEWS OF RIFFS REVEALS SITUATION MORE SERIOUS THAN FRANCE IS WILLING TO ADMIT Worry Abd-el-Krisi Is Causing the French Reflected in Sending of Marshal Petain to Front—Riffians Making Determined Effort to Break Through to Fex—American Airmen Go to France's Aid—Wily British Show No Disposition to Help BARIS, July 16.—Marshal Petain has been ordered to Morocco. The country realizes the importance of the decision of the Government to send the man who commanded the whole French Army, in the World War to confer with the Resident General, Marshal Lautey, on the military situation in Riff, where the tactics of Abdel-Krim are causing much worry for the French chiefs at the front. "We Admire the Japanese Intensely, But This American Land Is for White Men" Like Premier Palmleave on his recent trip to the front, Marshal Petain will fly from Toulouse to Rabat. He took a train from Paris this afternoon for the taking-off point on the flight, to the theatre of the war. Gen. Naulin, newly appointed commander-in-chief of the army in Morocco, will leave tomorrow, within a few days, there will be a grand council of war in which Petain, Naulin, Lyautey and the other principal commanding officers will take part in an elaborate new and vigorous campaign. The cabinet decided four days ago to send Petain, as the breaking up of Parliament left it free to devote all attention to Morocco. It is expected Marshal Petain will remain in the Riff a fortnight. Subantatal reinforcamenia are being prepared to enable some of the present combatants to get a long-earned rest and also to put the high SHALL AFRICA BE REDEEMED? command in a position to atrieve Abd-El-Krim a staggering blow likely to bring victory and an early peace. Meanwhile a force battle is in progress, the Riffans making desperate efforts to break through to Fex on the Taza road. Abd-El-Krim's tactics consist in harassing all points at the same time, and the French are obliged to maintain unrelaxing vigilance everywhere and to hold flying columns in readiness constantly to rush from point to point on the shortest notice. Compelled to protect certain posts, at all costs, because of the danger of neutral tribes joining Abd-El-Krim's forces, the French troops, for the moment, are prevented from making a really big and concentrated movement any direction. American Flyers Off to French Zone Tuesday PARIS, July 16 (A. P.).—The Lafayette Esadrille veterans and other war-trained Americans who have offered their services for the Moroccan campaign, expect to assemble at Toulouse. Tuesday, from which place they will fly to Rabat, French Morocco. Col. Charles Swenecen, who commanded a regiment in the Eightieth Division, A. A. F. in the Argonne, has been selected as commander. He rose from the ranks to a captaincy in the Foreign Legion in war time and served under several Central and South Amer- (From Chicago Evening American) The people of California and some other States declared that they did not want their lands owned by Asiatics. Their theory was "a white man's LAND for white PEOPLE." Laws were passed accordingly and subsequently United States immigration laws excluded all Asiatics from immigrating and colonizing in this country. Students, travelers and others, of course, are welcome, as before. You would have thought Japan would not object to this simple, quite natural law, especially as they had already passed laws for bidding Chinese to settle in Japan, and had even expelled from Japanese territory many Chinese already settled there. The Japanese for whom Americans have great respect, felt that when we decided against Asiatics immigration an exception should be made in their form. Now Japan has popped a law under which we foreigner own land in Japan. If that foreigner's nation forbids Japanese to own its lands. That in Japan's complete, appropriate and satisfactory "tenueeet." It makes us. lean Governments prior to the great war. His family has given at least one son to the service of France in every war since the time of Louis XIV. The group will be known under another name than Lafayette, because of their nominal enrollment as soldiers of the Sultan of Morocco, instead of volunteers for France. The first group will comprise ten or twelve Americans, but word was received today that there will be reinforcements from South America, the old Lafayette flyer., James Bear, who has been in Peru, cabling that he is hopeful of bringing some of the aviation pupils as soon as he can book passage to France, and others are expected from North America within a fortnight. Many Americans who served with the British royal air forces and the Canadian air force in the European war and who are now in or about Paris, are being solicited by the promoters of the expedition to serve, and it is expected that some of them will join up. FEZ, French Morocco, July 15. The French today deterred two attacks by Abd-al-krim's Riffans upon positiona protecting Fez and Taza. The unsuccessful Riffans attacks were made upon Ala Icha, one of the most important French points in the Fez protections, and at Bab Morouf, near Taza. The Riffan propaganda is especially active, and appears to be meeting with success, notably among the Traouls and Branes in the Taza region of which tribes further portions have gone over to Abd-al-Krim. These defections are also beginning to have an effect upon the Tchlatas, a war-like tribe, whose abandonment would be a serious complication for the French. Intermittent fighting continues all along the line. Although of a minor character, it is extremely wearing upon the troops, who are suffering from the heat and from the strain of constant vigilance. A French bombing plane broke down yesterday, forcing a landing three miles in front of the French lines, near Taza. Another machine went to the rescue, but its pilot, seeing the none (Continued on page 3). We admit quite cheerfully that in many ways we cannot compete with Asiatics. They can work longer hours for less money, and live here at less cost than our own people. Therefore we say: "Your country FOR YOU, and our country FOR US. And the law against our own your land is NOT resented. You should accept our law. In any case, you must." AMERICAN AVIATORS ARE MISTAKEN WHEN IN THE NAME OF LAFAYETTE THEY GO FORTH TO FIGHT THE RIFFS—THE DEBT TO AMERICA WAS PAID LONG AGO—TALK ABOUT THE "SACRED CAUSE OF CIVILIZATION" IS SO MUCH CANT LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, July 19.—The large number of followers whom the New York Local of the Universal Negro Improvement Association has gathered together turned out in full strength tonight and packed the hall. It is very significant that during these hot days when it is the desire of most people to avail themselves of Sunday's day of rest to get out of the city and visit the many distant and nearby places of recreation, the followers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association forego what pleasure there may be found in such trips in order that they may be on hand to attend the meetings and manifest by their presence and support that the organization is of paramount interest with them. This can hardly be said of any other organization, not even the churches where nowadays the diminution in the attendance is conspicuous hence eloquent testimony is furnished of the genius of Marcus Garvey in founding an organization that can maintain the following which the Universal Negro Improvement Association has maintained and is maintaining. The speakers tonight were Hon. G. A. Weston, chairman of the meeting; Hon. P. L. Burrows, Assistant Secretary-General, and Hon. Levi Lord, Auditor-General. Mr. Weston dwelt at length on the African situation created by the wonderful stand which the Riffians are making under the leadership of Abd-el-Krim for their autonomy against the French, and pointed out the possible results which the war may lead to in the way of bringing about the redemption of Africa which the Universal Negro Improvement Association has from its inception preached and predicted. His speech was followed with earnest attention and the audience was cheered and encouraged to find that there are glimpses ahead of the fulfillment of the program for a free and redeemed Africa. Hon. Mr. Burrows spoke briefly and pleaded with the members of the association for more and continued support, saying that at this particular time it was their duty by rallying to the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to give encouragement to our brothers in Africa and demonstrate to them that the Negroes of the Western world are with them in their fight for freedom.

Americans to Fight the Riffs We read that American flyers in France have gone to help the Frenchmen dislodge the Riffians. One of these gentlemen when asked by a French reporter about their mission to Morocco said: "We are going to serve the same ideal that enthused us in 1914 and to teach a lesson to Americans who are affected by German anti-French propaganda. We want to show the world that, we love to serve again under the Dr. Charles Lyles Million Dollar Midsummer Blood and System Treatment Lyle's Indian Head Kidney and Liver Medicine (The South's Greatest Tonic) In much from old fashioned folk art, artistry and practicality, the latest and most advanced medicine and treatment for kidney and liver and system treatment. ```markdown ``` folds of the French standard in the sacred cause of civilization." America's Debt to France Paid These Americans, who are members of the Foreign Legion, that squadron "in order of Lafayette," who gave his sword to assist the thirteen original colonies to shake off British domination, they struck at the Declaration of Independence when they made that statement, and if they think that they are going over to help France because they think America has a debt she owes France, they are making a mistake. That debt was paid long ago. And as an American citizen I am lifting-up my voice in protest against the action of these Americans in going to assist France to dislodge the Riffes from their own territory. I call upon those young, over-enthusiastic, so-called freedom-loving Americans to read again the prefatory statement in the Declaration of Independence and to interpret anew the spirit of '76. I refer them to words spoken only yesterday by Woodrow Wilson, the greatest of modern Americans, to those young men who were going over to France in 1917. Wilson's Advice to America Wilson said: "I am sometimes very much interested when I see gentlemen supposing that popularity is the way to success in America. The way to success in this great country with its fair judgments is to show that you are not afraid of anybody except God and His final verdict. If I did not believe that I would not believe in democracy; if I did not believe that I would not believe that people can govern themselves; if I did not believe that the moral judgment would be the last judgment, the final judgment in the minds of men as well as at the tribunal of God I could not believe in popular government. But I do believe these things, and, therefore, I earnestly believe in the democracy, not alone of America, but of every awakened people that wishes and intends to govern and control their own affairs. These are the manifestations of one of the greatest ideals of all time and the greatest American of modern times, man who gives great power to liberty and freedom according to the spirit of 76, and I am calling upon Americans at this time to see to it that they uphold the rights and principles of this great country." When America sought to free herself when America sought her independence it was to take against insurrection and when the Slave Nation was to liberate all modern countries all human beings would be freed on the side of humanity.

Marcus Garvey to the end that black peoples may in time seek to bring abot the complete emancipation of Africans in all Africa even as the Riffs were valiantly doing today in North Africa. REASON DICTATES LEAVE AFRICA France Would Be Well Advised to Give Up African Colonies, Is View of Some, as Oppressed Awake In certain political circles in France, it is said, there is at present wide discussion regarding the advisability, of that nation's surrendering right now its wide-flung colonies. Those who favor this action point to clouds on the political horizon which, say they, must ultimately result in an inevitable deluge. They point out that the tide of national feeling among subject races, not only in the Orient but also below the equator, is becoming stronger day by day and they predict that this tide on some fair day in the not far-distant future cannot fall to break its bonds sweeping everything before it. And cautious-minded, they would yield before the danger comes. Anyone who believes that France in the face of this danger will take such action or anything approximating it, shows a rare ignorance of France. Too strong is her love of imperial power. Too strong, also, her lion-hearted courage in the face of overwhelming obstacles. France, it is safe to say, will spurn the suggestion, holding that discussion thereof can have only academic interest. That a fine practicality lies behind the proposal, however, is disclosed by the fact that those making it claim it would really be advantageous for France. It would be advantageous, they claim, to anticipate the nationalist movement by making the colonies independent, and "negotiating with them economic agreements beneficial to both sides." After all, the sponsors of the movement are only speaking frarily. Not Trying to Antagonize, But to Build of Ourselves (From the African World) We are not trying to antagonize the white man, but are trying to work out our own redemption, for we have come to realize that our destiny really lies in our own hands. Having come to this conclusion, the only logical reasoning can be that we must express our thoughts and our wishes in our own way and the only possible way to convey these ideals and place them before the people of our race is through a paper entirely controlled by ourselves.

Cry, "Get Out" (From the N. Y. Times, July 20) District Attorney Albert C. Fach, of Richmond, announced yesterday that he had subpoenaed fifteen white neighbors of Samuel Brown. Negro, of 57 Fairview avenue. Castleton. Hill: West New Brighton, S. I. to appear before the Richmond County Grand Jurist this morning to tell what they know of efforts made in the last few days by white residents to intimidate the Negro and his family. Two attacks have been made on Brown's house recently, the last one between 3.30 and 4 o'clock last Friday morning. At that time a number of white men went to the home of the Negro, hurled stones through windows, unprotected trees and destroyed potted flowers. Negro friends of Brown, who is a letter carrier, went to his home following the first attack and took turns mounting guard against another visit. Brown complained on Friday to District Attorney, Fach, with the result that the District Attorney posted two detectives-to guard his house, and then decided to call the Grand Jury. Accuse Negro of Obstinacy White neighbors of Brown have admitted that they tried to induce him to move out of that neighborhood. Some of them said that Brown had aroused the resentment of the white residents by demanding an excessive price for his house, when white people offered to buy it. H. M. Robertson, of the Robertson Development Company, which developed Castleton Hill, further attributed, Brown's unwillingness to depart to obstinacy. He said: "My company sold the property to a Mrs. Evans a few years ago for $5,000. If we had had any idea she wanted to re-sell we would have willingly bought it back with a good profit to her. "I was elected chairman of a citizen's committee that went to see Brown. I reasoned with him in a peaceful way. I pointed out that he was the only colored man in a neighborhood which depended for its property values on its exclusiveness, and that in view of this we would pay him $5,500 for his property. Brown declined the offer." Brown paid $5,500 for the property in July, 1924, according to Mr. Robertson, and was very rude when he rejected another offer of $10,000 by the Citizens' Committee. Mr. Robertson said that Brown, in refusing the second offer asserted that he did not want to sell because he had bought the place for a permanent home and intended to settle down. According to Mr. Robertson, the Negro said he was as good as anybody else and that he wasn't going to be scared out. Mr. Robertson admitted that Brown's attitude had angered his white neighbors. But the real estate promoter asserted that "no one from our neighborhood was responsible for the assault on Friday morning." Brown's price on his house is now $12,000, according to Mr. Robertson, who expressed the belief that Brown's refusal to vacate was only another way of "holding out for an exorbitant price." Since his neighbors started negotiating, to buy Brown out of his house the Negro has received so many threatening letters, unsigned or signed only with a cross, that he has begun to describe them as "white hand" letters. Brown told the district attorney the contents of some of the letters. One of them, he said, warned that his wife, a teacher in Public School 16, would be "shot by an ex-service man" if they did not move. "She will not be shot in the house," further said the letter, according to Brown. "but in the street" while she is returning from work."

The two, however, came into the French lines later, having fought their way through the enemy with their carbines and bombs. Their plane, which was the first to fall into enemy territory, was destroyed by shots from French field pieces. Advices through Spanish Morocco last night indicated that the pressure against the French near Taza was increasing daily and that the French military situation was "quite serious." Reference was made to the "cutting of the Fee-Aiglers railroad" near Taza, which would mean the interruption of the French communications between Algerians and the Moroccan protectorate. LONDON, July 15.—Foreign Secretary Austen Chamberlain outlined Great Britain's position in repaired to the Moroccan situation in replying to a question in the House of Commons today. The French and Spanish Governments, he explained, had proposed the cooperation of British naval forces in the surveillance of equiruband arms traffic in the territorial waters of Tangier. The extension of the territorial limits of the French and Spanish zones to six miles into the sea instead of three and the landing of conglents of troops by the three countries at Tangier for the protection of the city also was proposed. The British Government. Chamberlain declared, was ready to carry out the obligations of the Tanzanian convention and to appease in the suppression of contraband traffic in the territorial waters of the district, but preferred not to participate in any action outside these waters; nor could it acquiesce in the extension of territorial waters beyond the three mile limit. The British Government also opposed the proposal for the dispatch of troops to Tanzania because such action might possibly provoke an attack upon the town by the Rufus. Demands at Tangier Other proposals made by the French and Spanish Governments were that the representative in Tangier of the Sultan of Morocco should be instructed to hand over to the Spanish authorities any matters from the Spanish zone who might escape to the international zone, and furthermore that inhabitants of the international zone outside of Tangier should be disarmed. The British Government felt such action would be useless as a means of ending the revolt in Morocco, and might even cause additional trouble and unrest. Mr. Chamberlain stated, however, the other measures would be taken in an effort to prevent the Tangier zone from becoming a center of rebel intrigue. Nine Generals Refused* Moroccan Command It is reported that no fewer than nine French generals refused the post of directing the war in Morocco which General Naulin accepted. The consensus of opinion among the generals who refused was that it was no use accepting the command unless the French Government was prepared to send the necessary reinforcements in men and material. Among those who declined the post are General Weygand, formerly High Commissioner in Syria, and General Guillaumat, the Rhine Commander. Americans to Sign in Service of Sultan PARIS, July 15. - Premier Painele has accepted in principle the offer of American aviators who fought in the French Foreign Legion during the World War in service in the French Moroccan air force against Abd-al-Krim. The Americans will be allowed to contract for service of only two or three months, by which time the War Department thinks the Ruffian invasion will have been crushed. They will be signed in the service of the Sultan of Morocco, thus avoiding an entlishment of five years in the Foreign Legion. The War Department is arranging details with the Sultan. PARIS, July 15.—This evening's messages from Fez describe the situation on the northern front as being serious and it is considered that the Rift menace to Fez is something more than a myth. The Mussulman authorities declare that unless a smashing victory accrue to French arms very soon they will not be able to depend upon tribes who have hitherto shown themselves loyal.

LET'S PUT IT OVER THE INTELLIGENCE AND ENTERPRISE THAT CONQUER In his front page article in The Negro World of last week President-General Marcus Garvey, after enlarging upon the intelligence and enterprise of the white races in conquering the forces of Nature so their uses, penetrating the uttermost parts of the earth and braving dangers of the most destructive kinds in order to get and to have that which they covet, among other things, said: This spirit has taken the white man from place to place and made of him the master of all situations. In his contact with other peoples, in his contact with other races he has adopted measures and methods by which he rules, governs and controls them so as to perpetuate his mastery. We must come everywhere in contact with this great ideal. It is that ideal that we have to fight; it is that ideal on the part of the white race that we have to overcome. It therefore calls for not ignorance, not primitiveness, but it calls for a similar intelligence. It is that intelligence that we as a mass lack at this time. The great body of Negroes, four hundred million of us, are reputed to represent the most backward and ignorant group of people in the world. Because of our gross mass ignorance and backwardness not only the white race but all the other races have stolen a march, and this march has placed them in the forefront in the organism of the great world in which we live. It is for the purpose of emancipating the race out of this backwardness that the Universal Negro Improvement Association came into existence." That is to say, the white races, by their intelligence and enterprise, have conquered and rule the lands of the Red Man of North, Central and South America, the Brown Man of Asia and the Black Man of Africa. They have done more. They have conquered and rule the mixed multitudes of the Islands of the Seas. Just now they are figuring upon the dismemberment of China and the division of its lands and people among them, as those of the other countries have been conquered and divided. It has required a singleness of purpose and the highest intelligence and courage to do all of this, and most of it has been done in the past three hundred years. The conquered people have begun to wake up and protest and to fight against the awful wrong of it all, but history teaches that it is easier to hold and defend the liberty you have than to recover it when you have lost it. The white man has conquered the world by his intelligence and enterprise. He has had two rules by which he has worked his way to domination, viz.: 1. Know how to do things for yourself and not depend upon others to do them for you. 2. Always have something to sell that somebody wants to buy and hold on to the customer when once he has been made one. The customer may be only an individual, or he may be a whole community or a nation of communities. The balance of trade is the gauge of national credit. If a nation buys more than it sells it is considered to be in a bad way. So it is with an individual; if he buys more than he sells he will always be poor and often despised because he has nothing anybody wants. The white races know this and conquer by making the most of it. If the Negro is going to win in the battle of life he must bring to the task the sort of intelligence and enterprise the white races bring to it, and he must learn to do things for himself and not depend upon others to do them for him, and he must have always something to sell, besides his raw labor, which others want to buy. For instance, every community of 200 Negroes should buy and sell smugging themselves most things that they need; but, instead of this being true, it will be found that in most every such community a white friday has a monopoly of the selling of the necessary things of life. He having the profits; he builds a fine home and rides in an automobile, while his customers live in houses and foot it in going and coming. It is just way, in Memphis, Kingston and Cape Town, like the Mississippi away to the River Mile. The Negro will always be able to learn and teach what he learns to master the most and not the most of his own skills and strengths values. The history of the African World publishes a monthly magazine, Born in Africa, which aims at the African major cities and countries and intends to the Caribbean through their own publications. The ground phases of its activities WE have received a communication from Mr. James E. Mackay of Providence, R.I., who does not give his home address, in which he directs our attention to some of the absences to which Negroes are subjected in the Southern States of the United States. He writes in if he warns a white man: "That leads us to say that one half the world is paid not to know, how the other half lives, and not to care, having troubles of their own. There is much truth in that saying. It is a fair statement of the case that half of the American people do not know just exactly in how far the Negro citizens of the Southern States are ruled by class legislation of the most offensive character and by mobocratic public opinion with such class legislation to justify them, and that they do not much care, as they have troubles of their own. Their feelings and interests are not affected, it is not their personal or community or State affair, and they do not concern themselves about it. That aspect of the matter is reasonable enough, on the theory that the American people are very largely a provincial people. We call it sectionalism. It amounts to the same thing. The people are concerned about conditions in their immediate community and State and do not concern themselves about conditions in other sections unless they become of such a character as to affect the interests of the people of all of the sections of the country. And, too, a great many white people have adopted the Nordic principle that the Negro has his job and it is up to him to work out his own salvation, as the Jew and the Italian and other hyphenates of the citizenship have to do it. It is a challenge to the manhood of the Negro people, and he must meet and conquer it or be conquered by it. The history of the past fifty years teaches that much, as far as he is concerned; the history of the past two thousand years, quite, teaches that much. as far as the Jew in Europe and America is concerned. Mr. Mackay writes as follows: "Deat Sir: The writer is interested to know if there is any way in which an American of education and good reputation can assist in securing the abolishing of the 'White' and 'Negro' signs which disfigure the railroad stations in Southern communities, also the absurd regulations in effect on street cars regarding the seating of white and colored passengers. "I have just had a most humiliating experience in South Carolina, which has brought vividly before me injustices of race prejudice and the evil effects of provincial, narrow-minded notions which apparently have come down from the dark ages. A Cuban friend of mine was not permitted to ride with me to Columbia, and a Porto Rican friend of mine staying in the same city was insulted on several occasions. On account of my being seen talking with these gentlemen and walking with one of them in the park, it was plainly intimated to me that my presence in Columbia was not desired. "It is my desire to give these people a lesson they will never forget. If I can secure the moral support of your readers or of any Negro who has had a humiliating experience, and who would care to communicate with me, I will give these Southerners an opportunity to prove why they should not be held to account." No; there is no way in which Mr. Mackay can give the offending people of the South a lesson they will never forget, except in helping to create sentiment against the Nordic program of segregating the citizenship of the country on account of race, religion and nativity. The Supreme Court of the United States, in declaring the Summer Civil Rights bill unconstitutional, held that it was the reserved right of the States to make such discriminations as the separation laws of the South make, as a police power. The court confused civil "privileges and immunities" with social rights, with which the law has little to do, and those who want to wrong and degrade the Negro citizen have made the most of the law as construed by the highest court. We have separation and segregation laws of all sorts in the Southern States, based upon the Supreme Court dictum in the Civil Rights and Ku Klux Klan cases in the early days of the reconstruction governments, offensive signs such as Mr. Mackay instances being a part of the infamous scheme of humiliation in all public places and as beneficiaries in law of contractual obligations and the distribution of taxation for educational and other public benefits, in the equal advantages of which all should share alike. We see no way of breaking down the color bars erected in the South between the races except, in the growth of a new generation of whites and blacks, with more education and wealth distributed among the two races, and the creation of a public opinion which will vote the offending class legislation off the statute books. The Negro, the Jew and the foreign born are steadily growing in numbers and wealth in the Southern States, and we look forward to a time when they will be strong enough to vote the Nordics out of court and be able to repeal the class legislation which they have fathered, with proper distinction between social rights and civil "privileges and immunities." It will take time and patience and steady growth in education and wealth to bring about this condition, but it is the only way possible. Meanwhile the Negroes who find the conditions in the South intolerable have the right to get them out and into States where better conditions prevail, and thousands have done this during the past twenty years and many are doing it now. in their reaction toward the same infection; that appearance may make it seem ridiculous that such a person should be deprived of this and that activity, and nevertheless for the safety of that patient such deprivation may be the only wise thing. If you know of p. person with some chronic disease, the only advice you can wisely give him is to The Congest First The Railway Has Made of the Earth Brighton's celebration this week the economy of the first railway departs wide notice. It was a hundred years ago this summer that the Stockton and Darlington Railway, thirty-eight miles long, was opened by a train of thirty-four carriages, with George Stephenson at the throttle. Britons learned with amusement that a gross load of almost ten tons had been drawn at fifteen miles an hour. That at autumn the price of coal at Stockton fell from 18s. to 14d. a ton and stage lines hewed that passengers were being carried for a shilling the economic significance of the innovation began to grow clean. Within five years the Liverpool and Manchester was running, and America, France and Austria all had their lines. In the century that has followed, the railway has established such a dominion over the life that we can hardly conceive of civilization without it. It appeared in South America in the forts. It invaded India in 1852, Australia in 1854 and Africa in 1856. The railway was less than less than 700,000 miles and no region is too remote for the locomotive's whistle. Hindu station-masters great black African guards as the trains puff up the plateau of Kenya Colony, and Eskimos watch the coal gondolas flying from Fairbanks down to Edward, 543 miles. It is possible to step aboard the railway carriage in Brest and step off in Vladimir. The railway is also part of Persian Gulf--Americans particularly, with their 260,000 miles of railway, are likely to think of its conquest of the globe, as fully complete. Yet it is actually a very imperfect conquest skill, and one which moves forward hastily. The most important achievements of the railway have been those of the present generation, and greater tanks lie just ahead. North America between 1885 and 1892 completed, the transcontinental lines, the being built by the Canadian and Indian Pacific. But the first trans-Asiatic line, the Siberian Railway of more than 4,000 miles, was not completed till 1804. It was not until 1910 that the first trans-Andean railway, connecting Buenos Aires and Santiago, was made possible by the piercing of a tunnel, and not until 1918 that trains moved over the first trans-Australian route, from Perth on the west to Sydney on the east. The Cape-to-Galore one has just been virtually finished, with the Upper Nile to interrupt travel. More than 5,000 miles in length, its difficulties have, dwarfed even those of the Siberian railway. The close of the century, in fact, sees the advance of the railway marking a decidedly uneven development. Canada, with the world's greatest per capita mileage, completed her third transcontinental system early in the war. But all South America has not yet been able to finish a second trans-continental line. Argentina and Chill should be co-operating upon the half-finished railway from Buenos Aires to Antiofagasta, but Chill hange back. Farther north, where the continent broadens, Brazil has failed to lak, such cities as Para and Rio Jandro. In Africa there is no direct all-rail route from east to west. It is true that travelers can push up the Congo, and since 1815 cross by train from its head-water to Dareas, and from its coast to South Africa there is roundabout link by rail between Walsall Bay on the west and Delogos, Bay on the east. But a direct line will have to come. France has planned a railway north to south across the Sahara and approved a route-fro mte Magerian coast to the Niger River, but only 112 of the 2,200 miles are yet built. the opportunities for great railway entrepreneurs are thus fully as large today as at any time in the last century. In some nations the need is urgent. China, with 6,750 miles of railway for an area of 4,560,000 square miles, and Brazil, with hardly a greater mileage than Texas, are striking examples. The future may see some single lines, such as the long-proposed Pan-American Railway, as remarkable as the trans-Siberian or Cape-to-Cairo. Yet it must be recognized already that a new element has entered the situation with the rapid development of air locomotion. The centenary of the railway is celebrated as British engineers mature their plans for regular diligible service to Egypt, India, and Australia, and America program for the large-scale carriage of freight and passengers by air between New York and Chicago. France feels less need for a trans-Saharan line since aviators have flown from Algiers to Bakers. The world will continue to push forward its ground communications rapidly, but the second century of the railway will be vitally affected by the diligible and airplane.

He gets tired of it because he is the under dog, because of the very stubbornness of it that requires so much protestation, agitation, patience, effort and time to solve it; because of the everlasting injection of it into everything he does or attempts, because of its perpetual pain, its purity and almost momentary thought and dreams. Every which way he turns it faces him; everywhere he goes it dogs his steps; every time he acts it bobs up. The Negro is thoroughly worn out with It has become a habit with Professor Flinders Petrie to toil himself for a while in the Egyptian suburbs and to turn up with a couple of new civilizations in his hand. Other archaeologists are content to push back the frontiers of history a hundred years or so at a time. Flinders Petrie goes a couple of thousands years at a clip. Not so very many years ago the story of Egypt was supposed to begin with the dynamic Kings, three or four thousand years before our own era. Then came a forward thrust by the archaeologists and the predynastic age loomed up out of the mist. Then came a mighty shove and behind the predynastic shove and behind the prehistoric Egyptians. Now it would appear that before the prehistoric shove other civilizations. Petrie's last leap seems to have carried him back an entire five thousand years to a Bedarian civilization of 12,000 B. C. It was a complete civilization. It had not only a complete civilization. It had not only a statuary and pottery but ivory combs and are paint. As between the civilizations of the Nile and of the Euphrates it used to be a close race for priority, strongly resembling the annual contest between the Greeks and the Prates in the National League. The Nile would be leading by a few points when somebody from the University of Pennsylvania or the British Museum or the German Oriental Society would go to bat for the Mesopotamians and Hine, out a new stratum or temple or treasury in the vicinity of Ur or Kish that put the Sumerian-Ascendant definitely in the lead. Both sides had their raid fists when disputed whether civilization first established the phylosia to the Nile or vice versa. Of course the Egyptians have been through to make a railway race of it. With Pinter's Petrie as another John McGraw to impress them, the Nile also has been going into a hoppy state. One stopping in the League of Antiquity now appears to be: Minton, 12,000 K. C.; Bippapapil, 1,400 K. C. The latter will have to go some tall clapping if it is to go on being a race. 100 if hard wounds may be free and rid of it—Lincoln's Leader. We are making our way gradually to pattern, in the learned professions, in every avenue of thought and effort, and we are getting more encouragement than opposition in doing so, on the theory, perhaps, that nothing successes the success. The race has every reason to be encouraged in well doing. Results count, and every little helps.

Human progress is dependent upon knowledge. The great thinker and four discoverers the truth in nature and becomes the scientist. He becomes a leader along the lines of his discovery, and mankind is the galerier thereof. The man or woman who gives time and study to the solution of problems for the betterment of the commonweal is on the road to real leadership. And this is true whether such endeavors are in the world of business, politics, the trades, professions or the arts and sciences. Such leadership is limited only to the sold of their labor, and its quality is dependent upon the success attained and their fitness and general ability to become the dominant commanders. Their work is measured according to the benefits that are derived by humanity. — Northwestern Bulletin-Appeal. One must either master economic conditions as they exist or suffer the consequences of poverty. This, reduced to its lowest terms, means one must spend less than he earn each week. It means, still, that during the months when lay work is abundant one must lay something: in store for the months when there is no work to be found. It means, also, that during the months when living expenses are at a minimum careful preparation will be made for the season when expenses are highest. -Buffalo American. Down the centuries Diogenes has shuffled and groped, looking for an honest man. Why does he have to look so hard, so long? Is it possible that history and human development "could have carried on as it has in the face of overwhelming evil? Do we forget and overlook? The honest, men are all around us. The men and women who will not lie, steal, cheat, murder and manhandle are the 'common' carriers of our burdens, the props in the maintenance of our society. There are plenty of them, but they are not remarkable because of their, righteous living and, as a consequence, do not receive the attention the rascal do.—Cleveland Herald. (From New York World) American sermons are too long, complains a. West Indian radio addict. Isn't he right? Listening to a sermon, one often wonders why the preacher did not cut it in half and greatly improve it. A sermon. If there is any life in it, is largely an appeal to the emotions, and Poe was probably right when he said that sustained appeal to the emotions is impossible. There is a limit to our capacity to feel. However willing the spirit, the flesh is weak; exhaustion overtakes, it whether or no. The most eloquent sermon ever preached contains less than 2,500 words and can be read aloud in fifteen minutes. It was preached by a carpenter from New York and seems an exegete model. Indeed, it gives a hint on this very subject: "But, when we pray, use not vain repetitions, as the hedonist do; for they think they shall be heard for their much-speaking." Possibly our preachers have fallen into the same error as the heathen. If they would save their breath, more people might go to church. Farm Population Declines WASHINGTON, July 11 (A.P.)—The Department of Agriculture estimates today that the farm population of the United States decreased last year approximately 182,000. The rural population is placed at 31,184,000 on January 1, compared with 31,216,000 a year earlier. The statistics show varied movements. New England and the Southern Atlantic States experienced not increases of farm population, while the other divisions show losses, with the Mountain States leading in the decline. Thus, while 2,071,000 persons left the farms last year, 1,336,000 returned to them, and then, with the natural increase of bighorn deaths of 407,000, reduced the total in farm population to 162,000.

In 1999 the government's fringe to down the 000, which was $50,000 from the 1994, while the�most important is the fringe of the fringe water $1,000,000, only $1,000 from the 1994 year. Fellow members and friends of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, greeting you. Our ship, the Boater T. Washington, has returned to New York, having completed its maiden trip to the West Indian Islands and Central America. Another contribution has been made to Negro history. Many thanks to you who have made this possible, but the largest contribution is yet to be made, and we now appeal to each and every race-loying patriot to do his or her duty. The trip just ended has taught us much. We have found competition keen and encountered a mountain of prejudice toward Nagroos doing business on a large scale. The initial trip has been a costly one, because we were compelled to depend wholly upon the other fellow for cargoes. We failed to get business from him, and in consequence our ship was operated at a loss. It is, therefore, our first care now, in the light of our bitter experience, to make business for ourselves. We must have steamships, and still more steamships, regardless of the cost, because these are the backbone of African redemption.

GARY, INDIANA We are extremely proud of the pro- pose that the Gary Division is making. We we realize that there is much room for improvement. The ladies of the division are coming to the front an- naver before. They are doing fine work in training the juveniles, ranging from 1 to 13 years. We realize that the glor- ious duty of carrying on the work of accompanying our motherland will ulti- mately rest upon the shoulders of these little ones. By John D. and Ivy Bad as our honored guest Lady Hannaletta, Vinton Davis. Fourth Assistant President-General. Lady Davis thrilled her hearers with an eloquent and vivid account of her recent visit to the West Indies and Central America. She pictured the desirable-condition existing in these countries, and the Southern part of this country. She predicted that in the very near future, black men in these conditions would be glad to look to Africa as a refuge from the humiliation and discrimination met with in the Western World. Special literary and medical programs were rendered at each of these meetings. MILDRED HUNTER. Reporter. COLUMBUS, OHIO Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, Fourth Assistant President-General of the U. N. I. A. visited the Columbus Division on July 3, 4 and 5. Three very happy and successful meetings were held. The divisions was much benefited by Lady Davis' visit.

She painted distressing picture of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and the splendid work he is doing for his race. She also told of the great awakening that is-going on in Africa and the welcome she and others received from native chiefs there. Lady Davis left on Sunday night after many negrets were expressed that her visit could not be longer. G. R. CHRISTIAN. Reporter.

In his opening remarks he told his hearers that Africa is our chief objective and in order to reach our goal it is expedient that we make up our minds, like our great leader, to pass through the valley of sacrifices. A creditable musical program was rendered. The literary program, though a lengthy one, caused no anxiety among the audience. All present listened with rapt attention to the various speakers as they vigorously defined the principles of the association. The reading of the front page of the current issue of The New World created an atmosphere of seriousness among the listeners. The principal speakers for the night were Mawrs, J. N. Douglas and L. Bryan, executive and general-secretaries of our local, respectively. Mr. Douglas took for his subject the letters, S. T A. R., as representing the words Serve, Trust, Abide and Restoration. He dealt with the subject in a masterly manner and left a fine impression on his hearers. The subject of Mr. Bryan's address was "Man. Know Thyself." He spoke in a scholarly way. He cited a number of men who have lived to justify their existence because they have been connoisseurs of themselves. He paid glowing tribute to Marcus Garvey and appealed to his hearers to acquit themselves, like men and prepare for the "bound to come" conflict for the survival of the fittest. Helpful addresses were also "delivered by Mrs. M. R. Lewis, Lady President; Mr. L. Miller treasurer, and Messr. J. A. McLaren and G. Edwards, members of the Trainee Board. Two new members were received in the fold, and all went away feeling that they had been greatly benefited. LEONARD BRYAN. Reporter. FLORIDA. CAM..

I meet, therefore, call every member's attention to the fact that the Parent Body is passing through a very critical period. Obligations are pressing from every side: The monthly revenue received in the way of dues in no wise enables us to meet these obligations. We are, therefore, requesting each Division to raise a special collection for the Parent Body every day during the whole of their local convention. This need not interfere with your regular collection. It simply means that at each meeting the members and friends must be given an opportunity to contribute to the Parent Body. These collections must be telegraphed-to the Parent Body daily as taken up. WILLIAM L. SHERRILL the utmost success. From the hour of 4 p.m. Liberty Hall was comfortably filled with a representative gathering, conspicuous among whom were the officers and members of the Mutual Help Society of Mirandale the choral section of which, under the direction of their organist, Mrs. F. J. Watson, contributed largely to the program for the evening. The meeting, was called to order by the chaplain, and, opened, with the singing of Hymn 24 from the ritual with Miss B. M. Thomas presiding at the organ. The usual preliminaries being beautifully carried through by the chaplain, the meeting was turned over to the president, Mr. J. H. Ricketts. He gave a warm and inspiring address, on the past achievements of members of the race and an outline of the work done by the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Next, it was a thoughtful speech by the vice-president, Mr. A. Clarke. His theme was a comparison of the work of Jesus Christ on earth and that of the Mon. Marous Garvey. Then comes a well-thought-out paper by Mr. Leyden-Newsholme dealing with the higher ideals of leadership, which was listened to with rapt attention. A reckoning by Mr. H. C. Buchanan was next given and followed by an address by Mr. W. Hill, secretary to the trustee board, who made an earnest appeal for patience and perseverance. The choral items were rich and varied, and did not fail to receive the full applause of the audience. Among them may be mentioned the duet, "Unanswered Yet," by Mrs. F. J. Watson and Mr. Leyden-Newsholme. This was a perfect blending of two musically trained voices. The pieces "Press On" and "Be a Hero" were also beautifully rendered by the choir of the Mutual Help Society, as also the holos by Messrs. Nelson and Grant, with organ accompaniment by Mr. Leyden-Newsholme. In his closing address, the president thanked all those who so kindly contributed to the program and pressed the hope that on next Garvey Day they will show the same spirit of earnestness, unity and enthusiasm which permeated the hall that afternoon. The Ethiopian Anthem, which was lustily sung, brought the meeting to a close. J. B. LEYDEN-NEWSHOLME Wonders, Secrets, To the Divisions and Chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association DEAR CO-WORKERS: The time is fast approaching for your Local Convention to be held as per instructions issued by the President General, Hon. Marcus Garvey, dated May 1, which appeared in the "Negro World," in the issue of May 16, 1925, and in subsequent issues. Mr. Garvey then said he considered it best suitable for the permanent existence of the development of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and further to safeguard the same against malicious and wicked designs, that the usual Annual International Convention be not held, and instructed that a 18 days Local Convention be held instead. We are now for that purpose, issuing special instructions for your guidance: 1. No one shall be admitted to the Local Convention but a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, except with a recommendation from a High Official. See Section (4) Article (1) of the Constitution. 2. No Member of a Division, Chapter or Unit shall be eligible to sit in your Local Convention who is not financial with the Division and the Parent Body. 3. No Division or Chapter with Jess than fifty (50) financial Members should hold these Local Conventions, but should combine their efforts with the largest Division or Chapter in their City or Town. 4. Each Division, Chapter or Unit, shall bear the expenses of its own Delegate. 5. No Division in one State should attend the Local Convention in another State. 6. Your subjects must be discussed for the advancement of the Organization generally and for the progress and development of your Community. Your Programs must be in keeping with the established principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. A copy of your minutes must be forwarded to the Office of the Secretary General immediately upon the rising of Convention. 7. The Political condition of your Community and the part which you will play must be discussed with care and should form a very vital issue in your Local Convention. 99 DOWNING ST., BROOKLYN, N. Y. HOW TO ACQUIRE RACIAL KNOWLEDGE THE PHILOSOPHY AND OPINIONS OF MARCUS CARVEY Edited by AMY JACQUES CARVEY LA PLACE, LA The division has taken on new life under the leadership of our faithful and hardworking president, G. William Jackson. The legion was recently organized with Mr. Ulysses V. Challigny, acting colonel; Mr. L. W. Peter, acting captain, and Mr. C. Anthony, first lieutenant. We have had much opposition to meet and overcome, and we know that the end is not yet. But as long as life lasts, the members of this division intend to watch, fight and pray. We will not rest until the Navy has a home where he will not be compelled to suffer segregation, discrimination and humiliations of all kinds. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS I To the Divisions and Chap- Improvement DEAR CO-WORKER: WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. The faithfulness of the members of this division is clearly shown by the cheerful and enthusiastic way in which they responded to the repeated financial gestures which we have been compelled to make during the past months. Mass meetings are held regularly by the division and many interesting programs rendered. The attendance at these meetings is always good. On May 17, Capt. J. G. Goods, a well-known resident of this community and a charter member of the division, delivered the principal address. Mrs. Lockie K. Lytle also served on the program. On May 24, Rev. W. R. Parham delivered the address of the evening. A splendid paper by Miss A. Briggs was also a feature on the program. On June 17, the principal participants on the program were: Mr. Hiram Hairaton and the Misses Dorothy Hall and Bertha Edwards. Mr. Craig Crone was the principal speaker. On June 24, Mr. C. N. Granderson, formerly of this State, but now of Chicago, was the distinguished guest of the division and the speaker of the evening. On this occasion, the Felton glittered, us with a number by their famous quartet. On July 14, Mr. T. H. Gilbert and Mrs. I. J. Williams addressed us. The musical program on this occasion was especially good. The program was arranged by Mr. A. R. Tate. The N. I. A. Band, organized and directed by Prof. J. S. Reaves, is rendering splendid service. We are very proud of it. We regret to report the death of Mr. John Landingham, a young but faithful member of the diplom. Mr. Landingham was buried on July 4. The legion had charge of the service. J.

THERE comes a time in the lives of individuals, nations and races, when they should seriously take themselves to task to determine whether they have reached the goal of success, or are on the road to it; or whether, being buffeted by the winds of circumstance, they are leaving the progressive path and losing themselves in the fure of Slothfulness. Man's objective should not only be to get the best out of life, but to give of his best to life. The selfish individual is never truly happy. The longer he lives the more unhappy he becomes. The world begins and ends with himself, and in such narrow confines the Sunshine of Love cannot penetrate, and Happiness, the generated warmth from love, is non-existent. Until he can expand his selfish being, share the joys of his neighbors, and help to lighten their burdans, he contributes nothing to life and quite naturally he gets nothing in return. If he has hoarded wealth, he has to leave it all when Death calls, and his end is made wretched by vain chidings and regrets. He who loves his brother man truly lives. The selfish nations that thrive on the sweat and life blood of oppressed peoples never flourish for long, because their prosperity is not built on righteousness, and they fall never to rise again. Today we see this exemplified in the crumbling of two great empires in Europe. They are about to fall, but like the dying ass, they are giving their hardest kicks. "Retribution surely overtakes the guilty." As of the nations, so of the races. The white race has had its day, and now twilight is closing in on it. The white man on the whole has been selfish and inhuman in his dealings with dark humanity, and as he foresees the eclipse of his power, he becomes fearful. Yes, he is fearful, because he is taking stock of his misdeeds, and realizes that during the centuries of his existence he has been sowing the seeds of hate, and just as love begets love, so hate begets hate, and the dark avenger will hasten him to his doom. Had he sown the seeds of love and kindness, he would reap the liarvest of good will, and all humanity would bless him. He shows no sign of repentance, however, and the Great Architect has pronounced the verdict, "Ye are not fit to lead; step down and give the place to a worthier race." Let us all individually and collectively examine ourselves carefully as to our positions in life. Are we fit subjects to enjoy the blessings of life? And are we contributors to that great font of human kindness? No man can be great if he is selfish. "The men who have made great material contributions to humanity have been devoid of selfishness; and likewise have made their spiritual contributions. The greatest reformer of all times has said, 'Take no thought of yourselves.'" "Service to race, according to our leader, Marcus, means sacrifice," and the man or woman who essays to work for the betterment of the Negro race must forget self in the struggle upward, so that in the end all will enjoy life more abundantly. The Late Rev. Gwynn Dorothy Lee MELMPHIS Tennessee—Never in the history of Missouri have no many or so great honors been paid to members of our race as in the past four months, and most particularly in the last two months. Great has been the service rendered by the entire community by members of our Group and the city has appreciated it at never before in its life of more than 150 years. The Missouri Commercial Appraisal, which has the largest department of any white newspaper in the entire South, has given large space for every girl who goes past to register for the Fourth of July. The League of the Fourth of July, the largest of the four groups, has been in the Mississippi State University, as well as one of the oldest in the United States, with Ridgeville. Mr. Gwyn kindled more than 200 of bank deposits and paid money according to President Browns of the Milky Company, and kept nearly all of the proceeds of the Fourth of July Presentation. The lovesting benefices of our Group - all ensemble of the four cities of the Mississippi State University - will be available to the members of our Group and women and men of the four cities of the Mississippi State University. Care of Mothers During Pregnancy Urged United States Public Health Service medical and social leaders of France in stressing the demand that expectant mothers should have adequate medical care, and that, therefore, it is essential to make compulsory the early notification of pregnancy, so that venereal affliction, when present, may be detected and the coincident danger to the unborn child prevented. It is not sufficient to protect the child only from the moment of its birth, as, according ```markdown ``` to Prof. A. Convehale of the Baulejoque Hospital of Paris, 41 per cent of the deaths of infants during pregnancy are due to syphilis. There is considerable evidence that the number of such deaths may be greatly reduced by timely examination and care of expectant mothers. Similarly the conference of Venereal Disease Control officers of the State Health Departments and the United States Public Health Service, held at Hot Springs, Arkansas, in December of last year, urged that special attention to all details should be given in the "treatment of women, because of the possibility of the transmission of the disease to the child."

For Full Particulars Write to Dora Hobb's Manufacturing Co. 228 West 121st Street NEW YORK CITY To the Editor of The Woman's Page: When you asked me for an article for your page this afternoon I was captain that I had no subject upon which to write, but as I gave out of my window tonight on the point of retiring, I had plenty of need for thought. Under my window are a team of more boys ranging in ages from their teen to perhaps sixteen—just on the eve of young mankind—the future fathers and builders of our race—a mose of which we should be no proud—and what are they doing?—Playing some wholesome game, discussing the topics of the day commenting upon the deeds of families and great men and women of their race or of other races? No, I am sorry to say, they are acting more like monkeys than human beings. Three or four of them are clapping their hands. One has a stick and is beating a tatto upon the electric light post; another, is drumming on an old tin box which someone threw out; yet another is drumming on the top of a packing box, and all are making as much noise as possible, trotting their feet and singing in unison. "Hey, Hey! Hey, hey!" while in the centre—they have formed a circle—the spice of the crowd is doing the well-known and easily recognised "Charleston," in which he is injecting as many animal antics as his hollow brain can conceive. Now are not these the actions of primitive man? When we see pictures of our forefathers, poor benighted men who have never had an opportunity to know better and to learn better, holding their ritual dances, we smile, or sigh or shrug our shoulders and say that it cannot be true; yet here in this enlightened age, in the midst of civilization with its generous supply of free schools and other institutions of learning and culture, we find our young boys cutting up these sort of capers, "Boys will be boys" you will say. Yes, that is perfectly true—but, in being boys curt' we form habits and perform deeds, which will tend to the unbuilding and betterment of the race? Why will we be a whole-fathers and mothers, teachers and guardians—not realize that the child of today is the man of tomorrow, and that "just as he is bent a little twig, so will the tree be when grown big" and try to instill into those young minds something which will tend to progression and not to regression. Are we as a race going to really achieve something good and worthwhile, or are we going to "Charleston" right on down through the years to come as we have through the days that are past? If we are, I can see no salvation, but a dark future for us. We complain, and finally complain, that in a race we are hold back, imposed upon and down-trodden; but do you not think we should stop and analyze ourselves and see if we ourselves do not in some measure contribute to our deployable condition and to the opinions which the other races have of us? I myself am a Negro, but I am trying to look up. Hundreds of others are trying to aspire, but when I see performances as I viewed tonight (it is the little things that really count, you know), coming from the youth of our race. I in a way cannot help asking. "Are we progressing as we would wish, or are we slipping back to ignorance and darkness?" GARRIE MERO LEDEATT. There are approximately 3,100 Negro women employed as elevator operators. -C. P. B. WIFE'S EIGHTEEN PEACE POINTS FOR HOME BLISS Fourteen points for domestic felicity similar in general intent if not in direction to those proposed by the late President. Wilson, were introduced in the Supreme Court in Brooklyn by Mrs. Virginia Mowbray Whitney as one of the exhibits in her suit for separation. She sought $75 a week alimony and $1,000 counsel fees pending trial. Upon her application Justice Cropsey reserved decision. She alloges cruel and inhuman treatment and says that her husband, former fyer and now an executive in a paper company, has an income of $10,000 a year. The Whitneys were married in 1922 and have two children. The points were included in a letter from Mrs. Whitney, to her husband, who denies all charges, at time when they were living apart. It follows in part: "I told you that I would give you my, verdict today, and I am keeping my word. I'm willing to go to an apartment with you only upon the following conditions, which I deem very fair. "1. That you understand that this is your ast chance to prove yourself. "2. That the home that we may form will be run on the principles of love and gentleness and in so doing, the baby will know only kindness from one parent to another. "3. That there will be no interference or quotations from 'in-laws' on either side. "4. That the running of the house and the managing of the clothing of the baby and myself is my department, and your business is yours. "5. That when I leave my mother's home her financial obligation ceases and I shall look to you for funds which I deem necessary." "6. That I will have, help to relieve me from the heaviest drudgery, such as scrubbing floors, washing, etc., and that some one will come in so that can leave the baby occasionally in the afternoon and evening. "7. That I have your entire confidence in financial matters and an access to your bank account, and at least have some small margin for myself, so that I shouldn't feel as poor as a church mouse. "8. That this marriage shall be run on a fifty-fifty basis, with neither of us trying to rule the other; but when points of dissension arise, a calm discussion of the facts. "Bans "Entertaining of Ladies" "9. That I will have your utmost cooperation and thoughtfulness in every way. "10. That we will stop all discussion of past unpleasantness. "11. You will have one night a week for yourself and I will have the same. Weekends we both play when the work is done. "12. No more talk of bachelor freedom nor entertaining of young ladies by you. "13. That you will not put obstacles in my path if a divorce seems to be the best solution. "14. That you will stick always to the truth and not deny statements that you have previously made. In reply, Mr. Whitney said that the letter "read for all the world like the terms of a victorious general to a for he has forced to an unconditional surrender." "I am willing to talk with you and see what we can do to smooth out our differences, but I am not going to sign on any dotted line," he added, and urged her to read over her letters, of which she wrote she had kept a copy. He expressed doubt that the terms would lead to a real reconciliation. What Every Woman Wants! The American Vagex Syringe is the invention of an eminent physician, finished Douching.

It manifests itself in a fine red rash which comes when the baby is over-heated and fades away under cooler conditions. It is very annoying and makes the baby fretful and restless. If the rash appears in cold weather the baby is too warmly dressed. Heavy snaffles are to be avoided and a thin garment should be worn next to the skin. When it is caused by summer heat, the baby should be made as cool as possible, dressed in the thinner clothing and frequently bathed in cool water. Soap should never be used on an inflamed skin, but starch or bicarbonate of soda dissolved into the water will help to relieve the intense itching. Ointments are not so soothing in this condition as powders. CHAFING.—A fat baby is very apt to become chafed in the folds and creases of the skin. Chaffed flesh should not have soap used upon it. Keep the skin clean and use baby's talcum powder. In obatine cases clean with fresh olive oil only, using no water. ECZEMA.—This is one of the most cool and annoying afflictions of the skin. It is characterized by a leathery skin often covered with tiny scales or crust, sometimes having a watery discharge; at other times dry and scaly. Some babies have a predisposition to the disease, and in them a slight cause is sufficient to produce it.

The disease is also caused by digestive troubles due to overfeeding and often appears in congited babies. These causes suggest the measures needed for its prevention. The disease should be treated by a physician. Neither soap nor plain water should be used on the affected parts which are usually the head and face. Bran or starch water may be used if necessary. It is of the greatest importance that the child have a free bowel movement every day.

I saw many places but hesitated to enter nor did I see a single colored person, though I walked around for several hours. At last I saw the T. M. C. A. sign and went in. The lady in charge received me courteously but said she hadn't a single vacancy, and after trying to get me a room elsewhere, suggested that I try a certain hotel, which turned out to be one of the best in town. I finally decided to try it, and was received with instant courtesy. I was handed the foreign visitors' book wherein I had to tell about myself, and my parents, where I was born, and my age, etc. This is one of the unrepealed war measures. Most of the other names on the page were Americans who had just arrived like myself. One of the first things the American visitors did was to flock to the saloons, ordering liquor eagerly for the fun of the thing and enjoying themselves like children just out from under the disciplinary eye of the teacher. To make matters worse, the George Washington, like the other chape of the American Line, is really bone dry. As for me I had a glass of fine port just for luck. For the night's accommodation and breakfast next morning I paid three dollars. The accommodation was much inferior to what I would have received in the United States for a like sum. Housing is much inferior to the States. Early next morning I took the Great Western for Cornwall, where the opening scenes in my approaching novel are laid. After a pleasant ride through some of the loveliest country I have ever seen I arrived in the quaint and delightful old town of Penzance. At this time the English countrysides are a scene of reharkable beauty. The fields are cut up with green hedges of which all kinds of wild flowers are blooming. I had always imagined the Englishman as being very stiff when traveling. Back of my mind was the story of an Englishman who is said to have healted to tell another whose coat was on fire of it because he had not been introduced to him. Quite the contrary, I found my fellow-travelers in the same compartment willing to talk after I had opened conversation. When they learned I was from America they became even more interested. And I noted that when they spoke they said "You Americans," not "You cofed people." Here one is thought terms of nationality, not of race it seems a very difficult thing to take. Englishman at home interested in me. Here, at least, all the dark peoples from the other parts of the Empire are thought of first as Britishers. Not once so far in the many conversations I have had has race ever been referred to, with the result I have come to think that it, simply isn't thought about. Wherever I go in barber shops, restaurants hotels, theaters, I am treated as any other man. And because of not having, we go to and find some of the ordinary accommodation I have been brought to topp to some of the best places. "Whatever the colonial policy of Empire may be—and God knows it is bad in most parts of Africa—bore in the Mother Country a man regardless of color is treated according to his morals and capabilities. The single black man I must all the time I was in the south of England, old, when I remarked to him on the absence of prejudice, "Why, this is the worst part of England. It is where you Americans come. You ought to go to the north of England when I have lived for more than twenty years." When I asked him to recommend me to a place in London he gave me this notably reply: "Go where your pocket will take you. Act as if you were a white man in America." This Negro is from Barbardos, and is a medicine doctor, selling roots and herbs to credulous white folk. He says that, although times are hard and there is unprecedented unemployment, he makes an average of twenty-five dollars a day for a few hours' talk. Negroes. I notice, are not the only ones who sell for fake medicine. This part of England is one of the most prosperous, being known as the Cornish Riviera. The weather is delightful in summer, and although it is about as far north in latitude as northern Canada, snow in winter is a rarity. While in Penzance I visited Land's End, the most southerly tip of England. Here immense boulders are piled up by the hand of Nature, forming a most astonishing sea wall. It appears as if some giant hand had taken up these huge boulders, some of them weighing many tons, and carelessly piled them up hundreds of feet high. Some of these great-rocks look as if an infant could disturb the balance and send them all hurtling down. Nevertheless, they have been in that same delicate position for thousands and thousands of years. With its tremendous waves dashing against these granite cliffs, with its great caves and blowholes, its weird formations, and the marvellous coloring of the rocks and the waters, Land's End is a place that one does-not forget very easily. The only other natural sight that I know excels it is the Grand Canyon. Cornwall is also noted for its tin mines. Students of history will recall that the Phoenician merchants used to visit it long before Julius Caesar in order to get that product. One of these mines I saw, known as the Ding-Dong, has been worked before the time of Christ and still is. Some of these mines extend under the sea. The Cornish people are very polite. Seeing few colored faces one would think they would gaze at a Negro, but they never do, accepting him as a perfectly normal human being. I went for long walks in the delightful narrow green lanes, meeting here and ther alone a woman in the fields. There is apparently not the slightest reserve about meeting me, and if just as a test I ask a question her voice is as friendly and normal as ever. More then ever after this do I feel, positive that color prejudice has to be taught and that there is no such thing as instinctive hate of one human species for another. For, if it were, surely those people who saw Negroes least ought to show the most fear at contact with them. Here, however, are these people, who as I said, rarely, if ever, see a colored face, acting just as if on the other side of the Atlantic there was not a tremendous color problem. Nearly all of the land around Penzance belongs to Lord St. Leven, who on a very high cliff cut off by high tide known as St. Michael's Mount has a magnificent castle, like one reads about in fairy tales. A few days later I left this beautiful part of the country third class for London. The English coaches are quite unlike the American, being much smaller, but more artistic in appearance. First class, the only other class, is so high that it is only for the rich. After seven hours' ride through country fully as beautiful as that I had on the way down, I arrived at London, whose outskirts looked just the same as that of any American city. In my next I will tell of my experiences in London and of some of the places I have visited. Farm wages have increased over 200 per cent during the past sixty years.—C. P. B.

HOUSTON, Texas, July—The Interracial Committee of this city at a recent meeting decided to ask the city administration for the addition of five colored men to the police force, of Houston, and also for the establishment of a senior high school and two junior high schools for colored children. The meeting was held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms and was attended by a group of representative white and colored leaders mostly business and professional men. Among the white men present were the former secretary and president of the school board and one of the city's civil service commissioners. The colored group was represented by a number of teachers, ministers and physicians. The fullest freedom of expression was encouraged and committees were appointed to take up with the city administration the matters agreed upon. Editor Love, of the Texas Freeman, a local colored paper, commenting on the meetings says: "The editor observed that the .nen constituting the committee were honest and sincere-in their efforts to get together on a common level, to harmonize their differences, and to stamp out friction wherever and whenever it bobs up." Federal Experts Hope to Put New Fruit on Market WASHINGTON, July, 12.—The Department of Agriculture today promised to put the famous mangosteen—a fine fruit produced in the Asiatic tropics—on the American market within the next ten years.

The mangosteen has never made its commercial appearance in the United States. Experiments on young trees are now being conducted in the Canal Zone, Costa Rica and Honduras.

VICTOR BRUNSWICK SONORA COLUMBIA KIMBERLY ROYAL Spanish Section Todas las fuerzas combinadas de Francia y de España jamás podrán somitar a las humanas guerreros de la Berberia, que yo, Ben Abd-el-Krim comando y dirijo, porque para tener éxito en esa campaña de usurpación. territorial tendrian que aniquilar cien mil refeños, cada uno de los cuales lleva un fusil al hombro. El pleno entendimiento de la responsabilidad como requisito necesario en la inteligencia de nuestro pueblo—Los que se reconocen a si mismo gobiernan y explotan a los demás—El gran espíritu del interés propio—Aloptemos el más alto grado de inteligencia y redimamos la madre patria—No dejemos para mañana todo cuanto podamos hacer hoy Yo so el representante de millones de habitantes del Riff que hoy tiene empenada una lucha de vida o muerte-contra las potencias extranjeras, las que hace quince años se tiendas en el desierto, nuestras ciudad distante de Europa, nuestras montañas, nuestros valles nuestras tiendas en el desierto, nuestras ciudades amuralladas, así como nuestros hijos y mujeres y hermanas en la esquina noroeste de Africa. Y para hacer esto, nunca, se consultó al pueblo del Riff. Hemos llegado al estado en el curso de los acontecimientos humanos en que la masa intelectual dirije los destinos del universo. Los pueblos atrasados y los pueblos salvajes estan descartados en la lucha por la existencia. A cada instante podemos observar que los diversos grupos se colocan en línea inteligente, persiguiendo la satisfacción de sus necesidades y la realización de sus ideales. En este escrutinio notamos además que cada grupo con algun grado de inteligencia, hace esfuerzos sobrehumanos para asegurarse un puesto en la creación, advocando su causa para beneficio de su propio pueblo. En aquellos dias anteriores a la Guerra Mundial, cuando el reparto de los países ajenos era un negocio internacional legítimo entre las Potencias europeas. la noción de "la paz del Mundo" era, para; estas, un convenio armonioso entre los ladrones para decidir cualles porciones debia recibir cada uno, de las tiernas pertenecientes a pueblos más débiles, más pobres, más salavajes. El medio actual de vida ha desarrollado en sí mismo un conflicto que parece interminable; en todas partes existe la demostración de un interés social el cual no debemos confundir, principalmente en comunidades habitadas por los distintos grupos 6 razas. No tenemos que cruzar los mares ni extender nuestra imaginación hacia otros continentes, para realizar la verdad de estos hechos; en nuestras propias comunidades y en donde tal diversidad existe, cada cual recurre a todas los medios posibles con el objeto de protejer sus derechos raciales, ya sea este el grupo hebreo, el grupo irlandés, el grupo islamico o mahometano. *Pero obtener titulos no es obtener la posición. España, por su mal, ha descubierto la falacia de semejante cosa, por que en la futil intentoná para dominarnos ha sacrificado decenas de miles de sus mejores, soldados, ha hecho de la "cuestaión de Marruecos" un factor peligroso de su política nacional, con el resultado de la crisis que todo el mundo conoce, y ha gastado cuatrocientos millones de dólares de sus arcas nacionales. Y porque la demostración de tal actitud? Simplemente porque el hombre inteligente ha llegado a la conclusión de que es exclusivamente su deber, el deber de la raza y el deber de la nación, el abrirse paso a través de las innumerables barreras y de los grandes conflictos de oposición que afronta a cada instante de su existencia. El blanco representa el grupo mejor inteligentemente organizado en todo respecto; su adelanto mental le ha llevado a la conclusión de que es para su propio beneficio, el ordenar y tener dominio sobre el mundo y todo cuanto con él se relacione. Este espíritu le ha conducido de un continente a otro, constituyéndose en dueno y señor de todas las situaciones. En su contacto con otros pueblos y con otras razas, ha adoptado métodos y medidas por medio de los cuales rige y controla afianzando su soberanía. Ahora Francia parece prepararse a sufrir una catástrofe semejante. Aunque nosotros tenemos-sobra de riffes y municiones y tenemos la seguridad immediata de disponer de una flota de aeroplanos manejados por valientes moros y por extranjeros que simpatiazan con nuestra causa, somos débiles siempre, comparados con los recursos de que disponen Francia y Espana. Pero tengase muy presente que la guerra en la cordillera del Atlas no es como la guerra en los territorios-llanos. Desde el punto de vista militar, los aviones de nuestros enemigos han sido un fracaso completo. Nuestro elemento se pone irremisiblemente en contacto do quiera subsista, con la influencia de tales circunstancias; con tales ideas tiene que contender; a tal disposición de parte de la raza blanca tiene que sobreponerse. Esto demanda no ignoraneia ni debilidad de parte de nuestro elemento, sino igual o mayor grado de inteligencia y determinación. La gran masa de nuestro pueblo, cuatrocientos millones de seres, está reputada como la representación más retrógada e ignorante de pueblo alguno en el universo. Con tal motivo no solamente la blanca sino que todas las demás razas se han adelantado en la marcha por el camino del progreso, colocándose en primera linea de batalla en la lucha por la existencia. Para anivelar nuestra raza al mismo grado de progreso y de civilización, hizo su aparición la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. Hace cosa de un año que, teniendo yo establecido en cierto lugar mi cuartel genial, en los dias en que se luchaba con el ejército español, los aviones hispanos dejaron caer serenta con cinco bombas aereas por alli, mando solo a uno de mls hombres. Esto da una idea de su efectividad en el Riff. Mas sin embargo, como nuestros enemigos, tan civilizados, emplean el avión de la manera más brutal, se puede calcular que mueren encuentra no combatientes, mujeres y niños en su su mayoría por cada guerrero. No me gusta recurrir al aeroplano como arma. Pero si España (y tengo informes de que Francia está también concentrado innumeros aviones en su fronte de combate para atacarnos desde el aice) no pone fin a su campaña acrea, no tardará el dia en que tomos represalias y enviemos una flotilla de aeroplanos a bombarder-sus cuidades, tan cercanas, geográficamente de nuestro territorio. Esta inteligencia a que hacemos referencia, no es la inteligencia dimanada del alto aprendizaje 6 adquirida en la alta escuela 6 universidad; ella no asuma ni representa la verdadera sustancia de la inteligencia del hombre. Nuestra institución entiende que es su principal objeto, el despertar en nuestro elemento el espíritu de la responsabilidad para consigo mismo y para con todo lo creado; la influencia que le haga compenetrarse de que él es el responsable de su propia condición y el arquitecto de su propio destino; que le haga ver claramente que nadie podrá hacer por él aquello que pueda él hacer para sí mismo; que no haga recaer la responsabilidad de su existencia en los demás. Tal es el adelanto mental que tanto la raza blanca como las demás razas progresistas poseen al presents. Nosotros podemos hacerlos a los españoles y franceses mucho más daño que el que ellos nos hacen a nosotros, porque sus aviadores, al atacarnos desde el espacio, apenas pueden destruir nuestras dispersas y pobres tiendas de campaña, mientras que unas pocas maquinas de volar tripuladas por moros pueden hacer immenso dafo a sus ciudadas construidas y, como digo antes, al alcance de nuestras manos. Hoy tengo pruebas de que Francia está haciendo inmensas preparativos militares contral el Riff, Tengo noticias fidedignas de que hay entre sombra y cinco mil soldados francas para sostener la guerra con los rifleños. El alto grado de inteligencia, la gran ability que poseen los demás para regir, gobierno y obtener éxito no está basada en la creencia de que el Altísimo ha de hacer por ellos todo cuanto deseen; geta basada en la teoría de que el hombre puede hacer todo cuanto sea posible en un ser creado por Dios, quien la designó rey de la creación. La edad en que vivimos es indudablemente una época de conversión; es una era de labor misionaria para nuestra institución, toda vez que nos venis empóñados en la constitución de nuestra existencia nacional en el continente africano. Allí hemos sido sacrificados, perturbados nuestra tranquilidad, superados de lo más estimable y dispensados en todas direcciones.

Sólo queremos que nos dejan solos en nuestras montañas ancestrales y en nuestras pobres llanuras, para llegar a tener, fomentándola libremente, una civilización propia, por ser nuestra. No tenemos más ambicion que la de rechazar ejos protectorados extranjeros que no hemos solicitado, y cuya única finalidad es explorar las riquezas de nuestro suelo para provecho de otros, haciendonos de paso más esclavos y más miserables. Hasta ahora españoles y franceses nos han dominado, haciendo que algunos de los nuestros traicionsen la caja del pais de la raza. Cuandó El Raisiul combatió a los españoles; estos lo sometieron sobornándole, pues le dieron una pensión que sirvió, mediante la perfidia de aquel moral nacido, a comenzar la exploitation de nuestros ricos minerales, legitimando su latrocinia en el alegato de que las concesiones de las minas se las habia dado el Sultán de Marruecos. Es sabido que no hace muchos meses acabe con aquel traidor que se llamó El Raisiul. Mís hombres, los mismos que han estado luchando contra España durante años, marcharon sobre su palacio, lo capturaron vivo y me lo trajeron. Poco despues murió de uremia. Ahora...todos los periódicos del mundo publican a diario noticias de "la rebelión del Riff". Decidime contra, quiénes nos hemos rebelado? Nosotras no somos rebelados porque nunca reconocimos la invasión, so pretexto de esferas de influencias, de nuestro país por España y Francia. Nunea hemos querido pelear contra la una o la otra. Ambas nos han obligado. Hace tres años que pedi al general Castro-Girona; que era entonces Gobermador Militar de Melilla, que informase al Gobierno de Madrid que los riflesueros quiamos antar más de la mitad del camino para tener paz con España. Le oireci hacer un Tratado que diese a esta nacion todas las preferencias economicas para explorar los recursos minerales del país moro. Ni siquiera nos permitimos reclamaciones irredentistas. Estabamos-dispuestos a ceder a Francia y a España algunas de nuestras ciudades para que, siempre injustamente, se establciesen en ellas. Lo unico que queríamos es que se nos dejse administrar nuestro país a nuestra manera. Los oficiales españoles se negaron rotundamente e ignoraron todos mis ofrecimientos. Y have un año, cuando el ejército español, diezmado de continuo por el ataque sistemático de los rifeiros, estaba en situación no muy brillante, sosteniendo un combate tras otro, sin provecho ni beneficio apelé a Ramsay McDonald, entonces Primer Prinistro de Inglaterra, para que mediate entre España y nosotros. Otro año antes yo habia, enviado a Londres un plenipotenciario especial para exponer "nuestro caso" ante el Marques Curzon, entonces Secretario de Estado ingles. El representante del Riiff, tan legitimo como el representante de cualquer otro pueblo, del mundo, permaneció cinco meses en Londres, pretendiendo ser recibido por Lord Curzon, pero sin suitado. Retornó a Marruecos de decenionado. Los Rifecón no somos hostiles a los extranjeros. Todavia hoy se estan eficientando nogociaciones con un grupo de capitalistas americanos, para ver la manera de explotar nuestras minas. Que remos progreso y estamos dispuestos. a aplicar los métodos en nuestro país pero es preciso, que se nos deje "salvarnos" por nosotros mismos, no por manos interesadas ajenas. Tenemos grandes filones de carbón estano y cobre esperando la explotación. Y lo repito una vez más: queremos la paz. Hasta ahora Epaña ha cruzado su espada con la nuestra y esta bien convencida de que por la fuerza no la gana. Ahora viene Francia. Nos damos cuenta de que este enemigo es más poderoso y enérgico que aquel. Pero no importa. Porque si esta injusta-lucha impuesta al pueblo rifeno ha de decidirse con la guerra, confiamos en que Dios de la victoria al que tiene de su parte la justicia, y que por fallo del Altisimo, salga de esta crisis, tan libre-como la que más, la República del Riff.

Todo plano de prosperidad y logna vino desmenas al ocultismo Magazine Section Subject: "The Manifestations of God" Text: Ps. 118:23—"This is the Lord's Doing." Not any phase of man's existence is without God's cohesion. The large majority of the human family are content to trust only their spiritual affairs (of which they know very little) to God; but in matters temporal they, essay to do, for themselves. Now God is as fruitful in temporal affairs as he is prolific in spiritual. Our big task is to give Him an opportunity to manifest His love. I have seen dire want and much poverty removed through an embracing of God's fullness and an understanding of His unfalling law of supply. I have witnessed an increase in the pocket from an unexpected source, when necessity staged me in the face. I have seen many a want supplied in the U.N.A. when the treasury was all but empty and creditors clamored on every side for their pound of flesh. Yes. I have seen the designing imp of darkness appear in our offices at the close of the day and make demands that were most unreasonable, and when I felt sure he would be able to despoil all and embarrass the persons left in charge to lead—go away with bowed head and aching heart in that he had failed once again and God had manifested Himself in our affairs. I have seen the weak being used to fight the battles of the strong; and the strong being overcome by the weak. And this, too, was "the doing of the Lord." But the most outstanding example that God is truly in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is to be found in its wonderful growth in so short a time, when the burden of leadership has rested on practically one man; and on the sudden removal of this great man the affairs are still going on, even in the very throes of a death struggle at times. Then, when the waves of destruction are fast overcoming—God's wonderful love is evidenced through some beautiful character in the form of some woman, lending aid when it is most needed. Some lovely character, in the chosen weaker vessel of love, offers her best to support the situation: It is the Lord's doing. Let us rejoice. Now God, does not send upon us affection because He is an austere Being and delights in showing His power; but when some law is broken, because of misunderstanding and lack of knowledge; and when we are sorely put because the faults is in us, then God in his mercy rescues us from the peril and demonstrates. His ability to do things He has promised. Thus a message of wondrous loose. It is a song of great joy. It is a faith worthy of long and weary pursuit. It is a hope which brings peace in death, and presages a joyful expectation in realms Ex-Bishop. J. E. Guinn, B.M. A Dailier, in Negro Books.

New Camera Plane Ready GARDEN CITY. L. I. July 19.—A Curtiss Oriole airplane, designed for rushing cameramen to the scenes of big news events and back again with pictures, was named today at Curtiss flying field. The plane, capable of covering the 750 miles between New York and Chicago in less than seven hours, was named "Fox News" by Mrs. William Fox, who crashed a ribbon-bedecked bottle over the propeller. After the ceremony the plane made two short sights. Successful results with chartered planes caused the Fox concern to purchase one exclusively for news gathering.

M. Stuart-Young, the West African poet, we recommend the second edition of "Who Buys My Dreams?" A copy is just to hand from the publishers (Cecil Palmer of London); and Mr. Stuart-Young informs us that he has about a hundred copies for distribution by post at the low price of one-and-a-quarter dollars. Remittances can be made by cheque or curfew note or by international post-order to Onilasha. Nigeria, which is the poet's African home. Inside these pages there are over three hundred the lyrics, some in Negro dialect, like "Anunty Nan of Liberia," or "De Oi Banjo," or "Ma. Picking Done Die"; others are in flawless English, and have been set by eminent composers like Charles Wakefield, Cadman and John W. Metcalf. Others are in the rollicking slang of the White Man's "Coast" vernacular—the land which was once a "Grave," but which, the advance of civilization among our brothers "Over There" is, now converting into the Beulah Land, toward which our yearning eyes constantly reach out. Wants a Distinctive Name, Becomes Mr. Future William Silverstein, a real estate man connected with Hamilton & Co. of 71 West 35th street, and living at 1358 35th street, Brooklyn, obtained permission today from Justice Louis A.

This organization has become known throughout the world for its slogan and uncompromising stand-for "Africa for the African!" Marcus Garvey has shown that no sacrifice is too great for him to make for the cause.

A. is turning out disciples, who do not fear to preach the principles of the organization anywhere. This organization has become a strong and powerful force in the hearts and minds of black men and women everywhere. Marcel Garvey is prison, but we are thankful that the organization has reached the place where, the imprisonment of the leader falls to stop the work. The faithful members of the organization are carrying on. It is very necessary that the work be properly presented to the youth of the race, so that they may understand and be ready to carry on the work when they take their place at the helm. Intelligence is necessary. Young people must be prepared mentally to meet the responsibilities which are sure to come Marcus Garvey is inspiring the young as well as the old. The juvenile auxiliaries are a credit to the organization. The spirit of Marcus Garvey is going out from Atlanta and inspiring black men and women throughout the world. They intend to march on, unifiedly fighting for a free and redeemed Africa. They have caught the vision. Marcus Garvey has taught his people to think in terms of race and nationality. The knowledge which can be gained through the U. N. I. A. is the kind that Negroes can get nowhere else. JOSEPH A. MORTON—New York, N. Y. Mere Words Will Not To the Editor of the Negro World How little in words help the great cause of African Redemption? The time has arrived for words to be followed by action on the part of Negro men and women. The Honorable Marcus Garvey has given to the Negro a universal language. Day by day the program which was conceived by Mr. Garvey for the, amelioration of the suffering of his race and the permanent establishment of the Negro in his own country and with his own government comes nearer and rearer to realization. Many call Mr. Garvey a dreamer, but the greatest achievements in the world were one just dreams. There have always been scuffers and traitors to discourage dreamers. The ideals of a people live in the dreamers. Marcus Garvey is suffering to put over the program which is the dream of the New Negro. We know that the dreams of the Honorable Marcus Garvey will one day become glorious realities, which our posterity will see, know and enjoy. God bless Marcus Garvey! Grapple With Problems In a Practical Way To the Editor of The Negro-World: It is unfortunate the many Negroes do not realize the serious position in which members of the race everywhere find themselves and are unwilling to beat themselves to do one thing to aid the progress which a comparatively few struggling members of the race are trying to make. Most Negroes are like grasshoppers. They make lots of noise and then do nothing. We as a people must realize that we are not living in the clouds but on the earth and we must try to solve present day problems in a practical manner. There is no time to lose. Every Negro must be up and doing. Industrial changes which are greatly affecting the Negro can be observed daily. We are more and more owing left out or things, industrially and commercially. We are dental a livelihood and our families are suffering in consequence. Let us get together to letter our condition. The program of the U. N. L. is a solution. Let us help to put it over. W.

CHINESE GENERAL SAYS HE WILL FIGHT ENGLAND When the people the sealishment simultaneously with maritime, customs, representatives of when they began to our principal port reservations, where these populations of these Government it it was natural that To the Editor of The Negro World: It is a very great pleasure and I feel that it is a golden privilege. to add a word of praise for the aplendid work the Honorable Marcus Garvey and the U.N.I.A. are doing among our people. Every Negro man and woman ought to turn a-willing ear and listen to the appeals of this great organization with its great program for race advancement. The Honorable Marcus Garvey is in prison, but there are thousands of Negroes everywhere who know that there is none like him and who are duly praying for his release. He shall continue to have, our sympathy, our prayers and our dollars and the organization shall continue to have our support in putting over the great program. The Negro needs a flag and a country of his own. He can never expect to get any protection or recognition without a government of his own to back up his demands. Today so kill a Negro means nothing in particular. Every Negro knows the conditions which meet us daily and for that reason ought to do every possible thing to help the organization which is trying to change these conditions. The Negro race has many great men and women who are looking in the wrong direction and working for the wrong things. Let us get together and work to a common end. MRS. SARAH MACLIN. Memphis, Tenn.

The way seems dark now, but tomorrow may bring much joy. Let us have great faith. E. ERNEST DOUGLAS, Westbury, Barbados, B. W. I. Where There Is Unity There Is Power To the Editor of The Negro World: I believe that God is revealing himself to the black man through the Hon. Marcus Garvey. We ought to stand together as one to put over the great program which he has given us. Where there is unity, there is strength. And where there is strength, there is power. While our leader is suffering for us all, we must stand together and respond liberally to the many appeals for funds to carve on the work. The redemption of Africa is our aim and we must not stop until we have reached it. Let Us Remember That our personal suffering is but little compared with that which the Hon.

CHINESE GENERAL SAYS HE WILL FIGHT ENGLAND years, although we are already awakening to our weakness. for years the Chinese nation' has been kept in turmoil by the commercial interests of the foreign nations. Out of Evil Comes Good For the last ten years or so we have been making every attempt to unite our factions against the common foe, and this Shanghai incident has accomplish more in uniting our great factions against the common enemy than we could have accomplished by fighting in another fifty years. The foreign nations holding concessions in China by virtue of treaties signed by our late monarchy will be forced out of our country, and in the coming struggle we find in England the greatest obstacle. We will fight England and if the government makes its decision my army will be the first one on the field to sweep the English battalions out of every inch of our country. we realize that the foreign nations who held an iron grip over China by virtue of these so-called concessions up of two distinctly different classes: (2) The great rank and file of Anglo-Saxon who are fair, liberal, and would like to see justice done to all. But, unfortunately this latter element although in the majority both in England and America, are powerless against the imperialism of their ruling classes. The great British people, even today, do not understand the critical issue in China. Neither do the American masses. The English press systematically obscures the issue. Whenever there is a serious collision between the natives and the foreigners anywhere in their concession ports, the British press invariably misrepresents it as Chifuree riota. Riots by natives against the commercial interest of foreigners on our own soil! Tired of misrepresenting the facts involved in our disputes with foreigners on our shores, the British press now resorts to another expedient. We are Bolshevsk! Reds! The Bolshevik propaganda is biased out to scare the Occidental public. "We Ask Justice" I term it nonsense. When we appeal for justice and the Occidental powers answer us with gunboats, it is natural that my countrymen will welcome any kind of allies who are willing, to help us expel the intriguing foreign nations from our soil. Do the people of the Occident, especially America, know the real truth behind these massacres now taking place, thanks to the armed forces of the English and Japanese governments? If the people of England, and especially America, knew the truth there would be such a widespread feeling throughout the Occidental continent that neither England nor Japan, nor even that small element of American commercial interests stationed in our treaty ports, could stop the avalanche of resentment started by public opinion in those countries. China is resentful of foreign domination. Lately this resentment has become so general and somewhat unreasoning, that even missionaries and those educational institutions established in our country by humanitarian foreigners have fallen under this head.

LUCITY OF LESS-DRESS IN SOURTY When the people of China observed the legal disarmament of these institutions simultaneously with the killing of their maritime, customs, into the hands of representatives of foreign nations, and when they began to see that thirty of our principal ports, containing large reservations, where are immense Chinese, populations over whom the Chinese Government itself has no control, it was natural that they should become resive. The vast masses of the Occident would judge us unfairly if they knew that, the bulk of our foreign trade is in the hands of foreigners. I ask how the Americans would feel if the situation were reversed and thirty of their ports were free reservations for foreigners over which the American Government had no power. Yet whenever lawlessness appears in those reservations the Chinese Government is held responsible. What would the English people think if by virtue of some unjustly imposed treaty by a foreign nation, a foreign representative was constantly at Mr. Baldwin's show telling him what to do. "Plain Massacre" Shanghai is a Chinese city with multiple foreign concessions. It is a great industrial centre, exclusively controlled by foreign capital. The industries and mills in Shanghai are owned by Occidental capitalists, who have come, to China to utilize the cheap coolie labor for the purpose of competing against the mills of their respective countries—England, France, Italy or America. Every mill in Shanghai run by coolie labor and with English capital is competing against Englishmen in Manchester, Lancashire and Yorkshire. And the same is true of the French, American, Italian and Belgian capital invested in our concession ports. These industries are not a blessing to their nationals and they are a cure to China. The Shanghai affair was the result of a labor dispute in a Japanese mill where a Japanese foreman shot out right one of the coolies employed there, a number of whom were demanding better wages. These things had happened before, but until recently our people took these outrages in a spirit of submissiveness. But today, even the spirit of the coolie is changing. The incident aroused the student element in Shanghai, who paraded the streets in protest, armed with police and handbills. Thereupon the British police fired upon the demonstrators, killing between seventy and eighty and wounding over three hundred. It should be noted that not one British policeman was killed, proving the contention that the so-called mob was not armed. What violence occurred took place afterwards.
