The Negro World

LET'S PUT IT OVER The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro 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. 26 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1925 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GREATER NEW YORK SEVEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U.S. TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES "GIRD UP YOUR LOINS AND MINGLE IN THE FRAY" IS GARVEY'S COMMAND TO HIS RACE AS HE TELLS OF HIS REACTION TO HIS GEORGIA CELL Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: Certain newspapers, I perceive, are busy guessing at my fate as far as my incarceration in Atlanta and my future habitat are concerned. They profess to know that I shall serve three and a half years in Atlanta, at the end of that period to be deported to the island of Jamaica in the British West Indies. Their concern for me would be a source of amusement were it not for the fact that my waking hours are crowded with thoughts of much import, with matters affecting the welfare of my race. I really have no time to waste either on self pity, the occupa- tion of fools, or on applauses which reaches me from the corners of the earth, or on the queer quirks and fancies, the suggestions and desires, the criticisms and sneers of those who would consign the righteous aspirations of the Negro to hell. Only One Thing Matters Whether I serve three years or three days more in this prison cell in the United States of America concerns me only in so far as it circumscribes or extends my activities in prosecution of what I believe to be the most glorious task in which a mortal can be engaged—the uplift of the Negro race, the advancement of a potentially great but downtrodden people to a state worthy of the Creator's beings. Garvey does not pity Garvey in jail. Garvey does not yearn to breathe the free air that he may acknowledge the greetings of black men on the sidewalks of New York. Garvey could forego, unmoved, the material delights of the age. But the outcry that I have made against the persecution which has come to me has been the outcry of one who is fully conscious of the fact that he has committed no crime, has violated none of the sacred injunctions of the Great Teacher. Great Leader Says He Has No Time to Waste on Self-Pity, Criticism or Adulation—His Thoughts Are Centered on a Redeemed Africa HAPPY BECAUSE HE IS FULLY CONSCIOUS HE HAS NOT DISOBEYED ANY OF THE SACRED INJUNCTIONS OF THE GREAT TEACHER Bids Negroes Keep Steadfast in the Prosecution of Their Objective, a Free and Redeemed Africa us by the people for whom we have fought and with whom we have fought. We realize that the world discounts us as a people because we have been compromising. We have always been begging for the things that are ours, not only morally, but by right divine. Because we have begged for these things the world ignored us. But now we are begging no more. Our destination is Africa. We are marching on with a great determination to conquer, not to beg for, not to apologize for, but, if need be, to die for the freedom of Africa. Negroes have never hated, and that is why they seem to miscalculate and misunderstand the Negro. The Negro in all history has never hated. He has always returned a smile for a kick. He has always returned a smile for abuse. But that was a characteristic of the old Negro. We are dealing with the new Negro today, the Negro who intends to deal as he is being dealt with. We are tired of being kicked about. We are tired of being tossed around. The hour has come for a definite action, and we have made that decision. The Negro is demanding the things that are his. Yield up the things that are belonging to the Negro and we will have everlasting and abiding peace. The world has tried to ignore and minimize the potency of the force of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Let them continue to live in a fool's paradise. The members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will continue to fight and to inspire others; will die; if necessary, in defense of their rights. Some people seem to think that the Universal Negro Improvement Association encourages animus against white people and against other races. It is for me to declare emphatically against that. We love all humanity; whether black or white, yellow or white; we love humanity because we love humanity together. But we say to the white man that what he would like for himself we also would like for ourselves. Will Maintain Race Purity The Negro feels socially satisfied with himself and means to maintain the dignity and the purity of his race. He therefore denounces any attempt on the part of dissatisfied individuals; who by accident are members of the Negro race, in their attempts to foster any campaign for the destruction of the race's purity. All the Negro desires is a fair chance to work for his livelihood. If he is given a chance the entire race problem will be solved. The world ought to know that it could not keep down 400,000,000 Negroes forever. There is always a turning point in the destiny of every race, in the destiny of every nation, in the destiny of all peoples, and we have come now to the turning point of the Negro race. How glorious a day it will be when humanity will settle down to deal out justice to all How glorious a day it will be when Africa will have the right to rule itself. We ask no more; we desire no more, and when that day comes I feel sure we will see the brotherhood of man and realize the fatherhood of God; but until then we see no brotherhood. We are fighting for that objective, the objective of a free and redeemed Africa. There can be no postponing of this great issue. Let us find our loathing in the fray. Some Things Negroes Should Consider Expounded by Noted Bishop at Opening of Convention of the New York Division BISHOP McGUIRE IN CONVENTION SERMON SENDS STIRRING MESSAGE TO THE NEGROES OF THE WORLD NEGROES IN AMERICA AND THE WEST INDIES SHOULD REJOICE IN THEIR POLITICAL FREEDOM AND SEEK TO OBTAIN FULL INDEPENDENCE "Africa for the Africans, Those at Home and Those Abroad," Should Be the Cardinal Article of the Political and Religious Faith of Negroes in Spite of Ridicule of White Men and Unthinking Negroes The White Man Is Undermining Christianity Through His Utter Failure to Observe the Golden Rule, "Do Unto Others as Ye Would Have Them Do Unto You." The following is the text of the sermon delivered by Dr. George Alexander McGuire, Primate of the African Episcopal Church, at Liberty Hall, New York, on August 1, on the occasion of the opening of the convention of the New York Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association: "To shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."—S. John, will 12. Great was the resentment of the Jews when Jesus Christ made this statement. What need had they of emancipation that they should be told "the truth shall make you free?" And highly offended, they make this retort, "We are Abraham's seed, and have never been in bondage to any man." The boast of the Jew of that day was that he was of a lofty ancestry, and predeicted to greatness because of his PROVED A MIRACLE TO ME! About the middle, of February I was asked with double pneumonia, lowering my health from 100 to 70. I was the father of six children, I could not afford to be stalk long, but it sounded that in spite of me calling in, I was not that, that I could afford. I see no better. In the story, I read in a French paper about Glantz. I read about my baddies obtained repeatedly. Finally a chemist friend of Glantz told me that he became horrified at the sight of me and indulged in Glantz-0x. I described once as I wished to go well. After taking one box I did not feel much improved, but the box was still good, box, and I was again able to enjoy good health. My pledge after the Giant-Ox treat began was to take Giant-Ox in good of a type should take Giant-Ox only and no other. My pledge will still be a minute to YOU HEAR-MANY MEN AND WOMEN SAY! "Oh to possess that buoyancy of youth! To feel the spirit of fun and love making again. To feel the three of passion burning within my soul—the same as in the days of my bedding, babbling youth!" These blessings that you once WAD can be, PELT again by taking Giant-Ox. Giant-Ox is a gland tissue processing all the necessary elements such as glands, iron and phosphates with a special gift that "releases the "Ohmilite" blood and nervous tissue." descent from Abraham. That alone marked him out for favor with God, and for superiority over other races. Nay, it relieved him even from spiritual obligations of contrition. When John the Baptist warned them to repent, for the kingdom was at hand, in their self-consciousness they rejected him for they had no need, repentance, seeing that they were the seed of Abraham. When Jesus came after, and exorted them to receive the truth and thereby be made free, they spurned the implication that they were in need of freedom.—"We are Abraham's seed, and have never been in bondage to any man." Had They Forgotten? But was it true that they had never been slaves? Surely, they could not have forgotten their 200 years of bondage in Egypt under the descendants of Ham! Surely, they could not have forgotten their humiliating captivity at the hand of the Assyrians, and subsequently at the hand of the Babylonians? Surely, they could not forget that, at that very moment, the imperial standard of Rome floated over their Holy City Jerusalem, the symbol of their galling submission to an alien power! But, whatever might have been their national degradation, and their political history in the past, they now boast that as Abraham's seed they are in possession of a glorious liberty, and stand in no need of emancipation—political, moral or spiritual. The Great Teacher informed them otherwise. "Whosoever committhem sin is a slave of sin" said He, and to free them from that, servitude, he, the Truth, had come to be their librator and emancipator. If the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. "Ye shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall make you free." A Strange, Resentment Their resentment finds a true parallel in the resentment of a large group of Negro people when told that they are not yet free. Indeed this group resembles, both in feeling and by words, the celebration of Jan 1, the anniversary of the emancipation of the American Negro, or the celebration of Aug. 1, the anniversary of the emancipation of the West Indian Negro. What is there degrading in the historical fact? Were not Anglo-Saxons sold as slaves in the markets of Rome as late as 1800 years ago? Let it be said for the overwhelming majority of the black men and women born in the West Indies, that they consider it a privilege to observe August 1, in each successive year, with religious services and patriotic programs as the day of their political birth. They see no reflection upon themselves because their grandparents had been held in slavery, any more than the Jew today, in his ancestors having been slaves to black men, or Englishmen in their ancestors having been slaves to other white men. Some American Negroes go so far as to flout the name and efforts of the man who was immediately responsible for their freedom. Though not American-born, I am willing to pay him humble tribute and to assert that, when the names of mighty warriors shall have been forgotten, when our modern civilization shall have become obsolete, when the history of these United States shall have become ancient history, the names of him who performed that act by which he cozy sauried his country abolished her four million black slaves not which shall forever remain the greatest in the affairs of the American name. I say, shall be handed down from generation to generation to the Negroes' greatest President, the Emperor Alexander the Great. Mustard Butter is for President. Needless of anything that may be considered to be wrong of the government here in America. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1925 roll is called of the liberators of pun- tions and the vindicators of liberty. Liberty has been described as "the par- ent of happiness." That was the thought in the mind of one who wrote: O. give me liberty: For were even Paradise my prison, Still I would-long to leap the crimson walls. Who does not give assent to the Poet Moore when, thus he sings: Better to dwell in Freedom's hall With a cold, damp floor and a mouldering well. Then how the head and bond the knee In the proustest palace of Slavery? Who does not appreciate the depth of feeling, that stirred Patrick Henry when he uttered those immortal words, "Give me liberty, or give me death"? August 1 Well then may you rejoice on this first day of August! Well, may you think of that act of the British Parliament, fortified by twenty million pounds sterling, which proclaimed the manumission of slaves throughout the wide domains of Great Britain; but you need to ponder well the fact that no proclamation can bring a people mental and spiritual freedom. This is their own duty and responsibility, and not until they know the truth shall they be made free indeed. To Know the Truth To know the truth a people must be free in thought and independent in judgment. It cannot forever be satisfied to accept the doctrines and opinions of alien peoples. Either the Negro has been too lazy, or too unconcerned to do his own thinking. He has been content to leave that in the hands of those who did it for him in the days of slavery. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, however, have in the last seven years declared our mental emancipation. If Marcus Garvey had done nothing more, his name will still live as that of the Negro who succeeded in getting his race to shake off the shackles of intellectual slavery and to think for themselves. As a man thinketh, so is he. If he think-of himself as an inferior, an inferior shall he ever be. As a nation or a race thinketh, so is that nation or race. You may recount statistics of one kind or another to show the Negro's progress in material things since the day of his physical freedom, but it matters little while he has no vision, no aim, nor destiny beyond the possession of creature comforts. Admire the Aim The time has come when 400,000,000 black men and women must know the truth concerning their condition, in the expectation that such knowledge will convince them that they are far from being free and independent now, and that their true aim, and their real destiny, can only be achieved when they will to be free and independent. To this end the race calls for leaders who will educate the thought of the masses along the lines indicated. The Negro press, the Negro platform, and the Negro pulpit, the triple agencies in the civilization of a people, should combine as never before, and putting away rivalries and jealousies, seek the truth and proclaim it, to the end that their race, still slave in thought, may be set free. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have done our own thinking: we have discovered for ourselves truth which others have kept from us, and that truth is bound to bring us freedom. We know the truth as to the equality of races. We have forever discarded the teaching which we received from our white instructors and their white textbooks that the Negro is the lowest of the races, that his race was cursed in the dim ages of the past, and doomed to be perpetual hewers of wood and drawers of water, that his gray matter does not function like that of other races, and that his black color is the everlasting badge of inferiority placed upon him by no less a person than the Creator. And that truth has so set us free that we now ridicule the claims of the white man to overlordship, and boast of the things that once we were ashamed of such as our race and color. If the U. N. I. A. has further accomplishment to register in its seven years of existence, the spirit of race consciousness, race pride, and race unification which it has inculcated into the Negro people in America, the West Indian, African and bleowhere, would be sufficient to stamp it as one of the greatest assets of black men and women. "Africa for African" We know the truth as we our elders upon Africa. As the aboriginal race of that continent, we have the most valid and careful word to its possession whether reviewed in the courts of Heaven or earth, and while for the time being our princeps is withheld from us and all we have become perishable still exists in other lands, we have served upon them the foregoing that we are diligently determined to abide to service and to the life we resigned with rehabilitated dignity. Let us remember for future generations that we have liberty and the pursuit of happiness without curtailment from all races. We do not propose that such rights shall be perpetually usurped. We demand supreme authority, in all racial affairs. And it is for the exorcise of such that we must insist before the parliament of the world for a government in Africa. "for Africans, of Africans, and by Africans." Belief In God and Self We know the truth in theological realms. While we have not degenerated into a race of agnostics and atheists, yet we have revised much of what our white religious teachers have taught or instilled into us both by example and precept. We have reduced all the creeds which they transmitted to us to this very brief one—"I believe in God, and in the Negro Race." That is all—in God, and in ourselves. And the God that we believe in, is not that creation of the white man which he has so assiduously pictured upon our mental vision. We know God for ourselves, for we have been searching after Him with our own minds and our own eyes. "See Me through thine own eyes," is what Marcus Garvey tells us that God desires the Negro to do. We have no quarrel with the white man for seeing God through his own eyes, nor with the yellow man for seeing God through his own eyes. Why, then, all this excitement because, following the instruction of our leader, we black.men see God through our own eyes? Theological dogmas and false Biblical interpretations have been skillfully employed to keep the Negro in mental and spiritual bondage, but we have broken the iron bands, and we wish white religious teachers to understand that we shall henceforth dominate our own ecclesiastical affairs under black leadership. You will find this excellently dealt with in "African Fundamentalism," a copy of which should adorn the walls of every home of the New Negroes found in this organization. That document of Marcus Garvey is the foundation stone of a new freedom for Negroes, and our black boys and girls should be required to commit it to memory, and the Presidents of all our divisions should have it read in their mass meetings at least once per month. The Golden Rule We know also the truth concerning the Golden Rule. We believe that that rule, "Do unto others as ye would have them do unto you," is the fundamental rule of human ethics. But white civilisation has made of that rule a mockery, and demonstrated clearly that white men are total failures as the apostles of Christian morality to the darker races. The Sermon on the Mount is the core and pith of the religion which Jesus Christ taught, and is the sole text-book of Christian ethics. And the whole sermon itself can be concentrated into that Golden Rule. "Do unto others as ye would have them do unto you." This is the acid test of a true Christian, and in his reaction to that test, what a veritable pygmy is the white man! In dealing with the darker races, how impossible it is for the white man to practice that Golden Rule! Neither in China, in India, in Africa, in the West Indies, nor in America, has he shown any ability, or any disposition to observe it. Never has he given a square deal to any people not of his own race and color! White missionaries profess to wonder why Mohammadism counts its adherents by the millions, while they count their Christian followers by the thousands or hundreds wherever these two religious cults come into contact. The reason is that while the Koran does not proclaim in so many words the Golden Rule, its teachers practice it among their converts, while on the other hand, the white missionaries preach the Golden Rule as written in their New Testament, but never practice it toward their darker proselytes. We know that we speak the truth, and that is why we have freed ourselves from the hypocrisy of white religious leaders and teachers. "And so, fellowmen of the Nero rade, might I continue to apply to our selves the test You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. But as the minutes pass they warn me that this religious service is the open ing portion of a full day's festive pro- gram, and I must hasten to a conclu- sion.

Toote, of Philadelphia Division, Appointed Acting Attorney General of the Bahamas—Intereating and Meritorious Career We are glad to reprint from the Nassau Tribune of July 15 the following article recording the unusual success which has come to Mr. Thaddeus A. Toote, counselor of Nassau, Bahamas, in his chosen profession: Mr. Toote, who is a brother of our own-Fred A. Toote, president of the Philadelphia Division, and ex-secretary general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, has just been elevated to the position of acting attorney general of the Bahamas, a position of influence and responsibility; under the British crown, which falls to the lot of few men of African descent in the British possessions. We extend to Mr. Toote our heartiest congratulations and trust that in his exalted position he will see to it that he serve the interests of his race as faithfully and whole-heartedly as he has pledged to serve his king. These are times when loyalty to race transcends all other considerations. — Editor Negro World. (From the Nassau Tribune) Today, the eleventh anniversary of the calling to the Bahamas Bar of Mr. Thaddeus Augustus Toote, barrister at law, marks his temporary elevation to a great post of honor (acting attorney general) in this colony and we desire to extend him our hearty congratulations. Mr. Toote's career at the bar and in public life generally has been streaked with success after success and his appointment as acting attorney general entitles him to the full title of the Hon. H. A. Toote. M. E. C., M. H. A., J. P., acting attorney general. The following record of his career is taken from our columns of January 3, when he was appointed a J. P.: The son of Mr. Thaddeus Toote, Mr. H. A., and Mrs. Toote. He was born at Dunnore Town, Harbour Island, Bahamas, the birthplace of a large number of our leading citizens. Educated at the Boys' Central School and the Nassau Grammar School, Nassau in 'April, 1909, he was sent to Bhamire College, Shropshire, England, where he excelled in his college work and athletics, winning a number of valuable prizes, and was mainly instrumental in securing for his dormitory in 1910 the challenge cup as premier dormitory in athletics, which it had not held for a number of years. After leaving college he entered Lincoln's Inn, of London, where he studied law and succeeded in passing all his bar examinations in the remarkable time of two years. He passed second class in real property and conveyancing. He could not be called to the bar until he had kept twelve terms, so he entered the Chambers of S. P. J. Merlin, Esq., barrister-at-law, and a busy practitioner in the Temple—here Mr. Toote remained until he was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn by the Right Honorable Lord Justice Kennedy on the 24th of June, 1914. He left England on the first of July, 1914, and was admitted to the bar of the Bahamas on the 15th of July of the same year, where he has practiced ever since. Mr. Toote has built up a large and lucrative practice—indeed his recent successes in the courts is evidence of his ability and augurs well for the future. He has won golden opinions from all sections of the community. As a member of the House of Assembly for Wallinga Island—a constituency he has represented since 1915—he has done much good work. He has served on two important commissions and is an active and valuable member of five of the most important boards of the bolony. A member of the West India committee of London and a fellow of the Royal Colonial Institute also of London. The recent appointment of Mr. Toote as a justice of the peace commends itself to us and we can only hope that the day is not far distant when this able and industrious son of the soil will occupy a position in the higher councils of the Colony. (From the New York World) The tendency of white presidents of Negro educational institution, to assume a "paternal attitude" toward the students was deplored by speakers yesterday at the windup of a two-day conference of Negro college students and alumni at Nyack, N. Y. Close to 100 Negroes, representing eighteen institutions of learning, attended and devoted most of their time to discussing the unrest among Negro students. The consensus of opinion seemed to be that Negro colleges should be headed by Negroes selected strictly on the basis of efficiency, and that the faculties should contain both white and colored teachers. Alumni/Aid Urged Speakers also expressed the opinion that alumni should be represented on the trustees, but remarked that if this is to be accomplished the alumni must be ready to share the financial burdens of the colleges. The students, adopted a resolution expressing to the teachers in the University of China their sympathy with the trouble experienced as a result of foreign interference. They also adopted a resolution to be forwarded to the French War Ministry, expressing regret that, in her warfare against the Riffs, France has departed from her policy of respecting the rights of the Negroes in her colonies. The conference also went on record as generally opposed to war. Opposite Paternal Stand The conference was arranged by the Intracoelate Association of New York City, and was held on a lawn overlooking the Hudson. It was predeided over by Miss Louise H. Jackson of Hunter College. Miss Thelma P.伯贝克 of New York University acted as secretary, and George E. Hall, New York University, treasurer. Speakers remarked that the "paternal attitude in the part of white presidents was not inspiring" to students in Negro colleges. They said students of all races are broadening in their ideas and ideals, and, that any college president who does not broaden with the students is of little use to them. F. D. Johnson, a student in the Columbia University Law School, fed the discussion on student unrest. Darker Races Demanding A Squarer Deal in Policy and Territory (From the "New York Times") "The East has certainly lost confidence in the West." Such a word addressed to Americans by a professor of philosophy in the University of Lucknow, India, is of a sort to arrest attention. Like the voices that have been coming from Young China, it indicates a new element of struggle and self-assertion in the Far East. The speaker, declared, in fact, that there is a "new state of mind in the so-called wafer faces of the world." They feel that they have been defrauded and exploited by the stronger races, and are now prepared to insist on their own rights, "even if in the struggle they have to dig their own graves." The Lucknow professor hopes that the thing will never be put to the issue of force. But he added that the peoples of the Far East are every day coming to a new sense of their own potential strength, and will not be content until there is a "fair international adjustment of territory so that the overcrowded populations of the East may and an outlet somewhere." It is easy to say that all this represents little more than the aspiration of a limited number of educated young enthusiasts in the Far East. Even so, it cannot be ignored. It is a natural result of what the West has been doing, or trying to do in the East. When John Mottley was Secretary of India, he said that even there we had to accept the effects of that education in which we all believed for ourselves. We could not deny our own, abroad or at home. And the present, Secretary for India, Lord Birkhead, said things of much the same tenor in his recent speech in the Lokda, affirming that England does not now think of India as a property which she holds in the tide, but only as a trust which she must administer for the best good of its benefactor. Even that supposed unbending imperialist, the late Lord Mulligan, came to India similar views before he died. No nation has responsibilities of any serious kind in the Orient can afford to shut its ears to these significant crises which come from its ambitions youth. They may be mistaken, their demands may be predicated their hopes destined to realization only in the distant future. If at all, but there they are, a living then a political reality, which Westerners would be made well as hard-hearted if they determined to do so. RIFFS AND FRENCH PREPARE FOR THE DECISION French and Moors Prgparing for Decisive Blow Before Rainy Season Comes—Situation More Alarming Than Laconic Paris Messages Indicate PARIS. Aug. 2.—In the absence of any fighting of importance between the French and the rebellious tribesmen in Morocco, attention has turned chiefly to the reported approaching French offensive. The correspondent, of the Temps in Fes repeats that the offensive must come at the office of August, as a winter campaign is unthinkable, for all the roads will be impracticable for use after October 16, when the rainy reason commences. As a preliminary to the offensive, various strong Riffan positions southward of the Ouergha River, which now form bases for raids, will be cleaned up by the French. These positions are strongly manned by rebels. As an instance, Mount Amergou'at, at the bend of the Ouergha between Koleline and Fezel-Ball, holds 2,000 Riffs. Abd-el-Krim, the rebel chieftain, is credited with having agents in towns south of the French lines who post letters to leading Moroccan and European in order to create the impression that he is occupying the towns. *French Garrison in Tragic Fight* Fez; July 31.—Aln Bou Aissa was blown up by his garrison last night. Aln Bou Aissa is not important, strategically speaking, but from the standpoint of human interest, it is outstanding among many great pages of bravery and endurance which have been written in the courses of this inferno among wars. Hour by hour French headquarters was getting reports from Fredxinburg a column or from airmen flying low over the ford, telling of the last stages of the life of this outpost. Since it was blown up, the reports have been describing the fate of the remnants of the garfion so far as known. And far from the little tent in Morocco where General Naulin has his temporary headquarters under the blazing sun the entire world is learning almost hour by hour the tragic story of Aln Bou Alesa—a close neighbor of Beni Derkoul, which also ended its career by being blown up, but with defenders torn to shreds with the post they so fiercely defended. At Alm Boul Alsa, however, it is yet unknown how many of the garrison perished. Fifteen men arrived at Terrorual today, but the fate of the wounded lieutenant who was in command and forty-five men is still unknown, and airmen are looking for them among the rocky crags in the shadedless Moroccan mountains. Battling obscurity continues to shroud the last hours of the gallant defense. Even men who have returned from this hell—haggard and with shattered nerves—cannot tell the hour when it was blowing up nor where their Save the Drunkard (Written by a woman who saved her husband from the drinking evil) my man is very good to me. So loyal, kind and true. He was very much really drunk. As other husbands do. But sometimes, when he's "got too much," he will just "say dead." For those no smashing in their heart.

N. I. A.—TELEGRAM IS SENT TO PRESIDENT AND ATTORNEY GENERAL OF U. S. REQUESTING EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY FOR MARCUS GARVEY LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, August 2.—Garvey Day, as celebrated in Liberty Hall this evening, was an occasion that will long be remembered: not alone for the display of sincere patriotism to the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association on the part of its followers, but for the opportunity which the meeting afforded of witnessing the unswerving loyalty, devotion, honor and respect that the large masses of Negroes in this city hold towards the leader and founder of the organization, Marcus Garvey, though confined in prison, and the fervid speeches which the greatness of the organization and the ingenuity and fidelity of its leader have inspired. Notwithstanding the fact that there was a paid admission to the meeting, the hall was filled nearly to capacity, while a crowd of large proportions contented themselves with looking on from any point of vantage that could be secured outside of the historic building. This great gathering of people was due to the fact that today was not only Garvey Day, for the U. N. I. A. followers, but also the second day of the annual convention of the organization (officially opened on the previous day with a spectacular parade through the streets of Harlem), which, though local and not international in scope as previous conventions, was nevertheless looked forward to with a great deal of interest. The executive heads of the organization were fully represented, there being on the platform Hon. William Sherrill, the Acting President General, who has just returned from Central America whither he went in the interests of the association; Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, Third Assistant President General; Hon. G. Emonei Carter, Secretary General; Hon. Clifford Bourne, Chancellor; Hon. Levi Lord, Auditor General, and Hon. Percival L. Burrows, First Assistant Secretary General. Among the visitors was Rev. Dr. Howell, a Caucasian, who is an ardent admirer and well-wisher of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Marcus Garvey, and who in the course of a spirited address avowed his advocacy of the claims which the organization was making in behalf of the Negroes of the world to "Africa for the Africans." The mayor of New York City, Hon. John F. Hylan, was invited to the meeting, but sent a letter addressed to the chairman, Hon. G. A. Weston, expressing his regret that a previous engagement had rendered it impossible for him to attend. An exceptionally splendid program of music was rendered prior to the speechmaking. The choir under the direction of Mrs. Weston and the Universal Band under the leadership of Prof. Wallace, seemed specially primed for the occasion, while the Perfect Harmony Fohr and Mme. Fraser Robinson literally brought down the house with very pleasing vocal selections. The speech of the evening was delivered by Hon. William Sherrill who reviewed at length the seven years of activities of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and outlined the policy which the organization would pursue towards the fulfillment of its program during the new era of its existence which the present convention was inaugurating. In the course of his address, Mr. Sherrill, acting in his capacity as president general, set apart August 17, the birthday anniversary of Hon. Marcus Garvey, as a day of supplication and prayer for the deliverance of Marcus Garvey, and issued a declaration for its observance by all the divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world. The full-text of Mr. Sherrill's address will be published in next week's issue. The following telegram to the President of the United States and the Federal Attorney General voicing the sentiment of the six million members of the organization in an appeal for executive clemency for Hon. Marcus Garvey, was unanimously endorsed and ordered forwarded to its destination: "On this, our international holiday of Negro Peoples of the World, the six million members of the U. N. I. A. assembled in 1,400 local conventions convened on Aug. 1st throughout the United States and the world, for 15 days, are yet hopeful that before these sessions shall close we shall have released, in answer to our petitions, our great and trusted leader, Hon. Marcus Garvey, who has brought to the 400,000,000 narcissus throughout the world new hopes, aspirations and determined efforts to make Africa the asylum of all the black people of the world, and Africans at home or abroad. Wm. L. Sherrill. Acting Pres. Gent. G. Emonel Carter. Secy. Gent." The following telegram was received from the chairman of the Pittsburgh Division: "District convention opened this morning.

Howell, in an eloquent speech paid tribute to the splendid work the U. N. L. A. was doing. The time was ripe, he said, for Negroes to be in control of their own land through a government of their own and help in bringing to a civilized world the virtues of love and kindness to restore their impoverished, of the present day. He emphasized the power of the Negroes and told them know and realize their strength. He returned to the African-American pioneers the appended book, which told the story of the world and observed the work of Negroes who were the pioneers of the world. minority that rued and fattened their pusses from the sweat of the common people. He was looking forward to the time when China, India and Africa were free, and if he read the portents right, the day was not far distant when Africa would compel respect even as Japan now did. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, he declared, ably guided by its leader and founder, was doing a grand and glorious work which the historian would appraise in letters of gold. SIR LEVI LORD'S ADDRESS Sr. Levi Lord referred to the fact that they were now entering the second institutional year of the organization. He reminded his hearers that on this, Garvey Day, the great leader was suffering behind prison bars, making sacrifices for them, and it was their plain duty not to shrink from the sacrifices they also were required to make, but give of their best in money and in deeds toward the accomplishment of the program. He then made an appeal for funds to assist the Parent Body, which met with a hearty response. Corned Beef Ahead In "Chow Handicap" Corned beef and cabbage—"Irish turkey"—is to try for the favorite dish in New York, judging from the first 2,000 ballots handed yesterday to Calvin S. Klein, Secretary of the United Restaurant Owners' Association. Balloting for "Your Favorite Dish" by customers of the 500 restaurants owned by members of the association began Monday and will continue until the end of the week to determine the dishes most in demand so that the supply of them may never fall. On 1,200 of the first 2,000 ballots trimmed in, corned beef and cabbage was first choice. Close behind came the vegetable dinner. The combination salad van third. Back of these leaders and closely bunched were beef a la mode, tongue and spinach, chicken salad, leg of lamb, roast beef. In the ruck came such delicacies as veal cutlet, pot roast-beef stew, hamburger steak, wiener schmutz, broiled scallops, ham-and-eggs, steak and mutton chops. One voter admitted he liked "two teals baked ten hours." Heart Disease Gains, Insurers Ate Told LOUISVILLE, Ky. June 4—Heart disease has displaced tuberculosis as the great destroyer of human life, according to Dr. J. Allen Patton, medical director of the Prudential Insurance Company of America, who addressed today's meeting of the American Life Convention medical section, in annual session here. "Recently compiled tables," Dr Patton said, "show that a child of ten years is three times more likely to die eventually from heart disease than from tuberculosis, and this disparity increases, with age." "Statistics of the New York Heart Association show 20,000 children attending New York City public schools have permanently damaged hearts and that organic heart disease caused 14,315 deaths in New York City in one year, as compared with 4,854 from tuberculosis."

Ma BKYRA BILL TO CURB MOB VIOLENCE IN GEORGIA Seeks to Make End of Riots and Wanton Killing of Negroes—Sheriffs, Jailers and Peace Officers to Be Held Responsible—Wide Support of the Measure ATLANTA, GA., July 27.—Georgia will join the growing list of Southern States which are taking active steps to end rioting and mob violence if the Legislature enacts the Law and Order bill introduced in the House of Representatives last week. The bill, entitled "An Act to Maintain Law and Order," provides that in any case of riot, rioters assembly, or mob violence, careful investigation shall be made by the Judge of Superior Court. If it appears from this investigation that any sheriff, deputy sheriff, jailer, or other peace officer was negligent or incompetent in dealing with such disorder, the Chief Justice or other Justice of the Supreme Court shall appoint a special Law and Order Commission to hear all the evidence in the case and render judgment as to the faithfulness or negligence of the officer in question. If she is found by the commission to have been negligent, Judgment to that effect shall be communicated to the Governor, who will return shall remove the officer from his position. Proof that any person was taken from the custody of the officer by the mob or killed or injured while in his custody, shall be prima facie evidence of neglect, to be offset only by affirmative proof that the officer had in fact used all reasonable precaution, and exercised the utmost diligence in the effort to maintain order. The bill provides further that in the case of an officer so adjudged negligent in the prevention of rioting or violence the attorney general of the State shall bring suit against such officer for the full value of any property destroyed by the mob and for the sum of 45,000 for each homicide committed by it. Any person remanded from office under the provisions of the act shall be disqualified for a period of five years to hold any peace office of the State, county, or municipality. Friends of the measure point out that it is indulged with similar laws enacted in other Southern states which have been found very effective in the reduction of mob violence. It is said to be widely supported by religious, civic and welfare organizations over the State. Bread 2,000 Years Old in Bakery Dug Up in Egypt AIARO, June 7, (A. P.). The University of Michigan expedition excavating on the site of ancient Karansi in Egypt has found more than 2,000 objects illustrating the culture of the Graeco-Roman period. The city flourghed in the centuries immediately preceding and following the birth of Christ. Prof. Francis W. Kelsey, director of the excavation, recently returned to the United States. Since December, 1924, more than 1,000 rooms and 300 houses have been cleared of sand and debris. The site is so dry that the preservation of perishable substances is perfect. The articles found include more than 450 Greek papyri, including a library dating from the second to the fifth century; a large collection of glass vessels, fifty examples of basketry, textiles from fine line, to course weavers resembling burlap, and more than 100 examples of wooden tools. About 300 terra coffin objects, 208 lamps and a great number of coins have been found. Among the tools are farm implements and perfectly preserved sets of harness for donkeys and camels. A large bakery was unearthened with grain bins and a large mill and piles of coarse leaves of bread just as they were left when the bakers abandoned the town. The glaze vessels, exquisite in shape and color, present their original appearance. Glass so preserved has been found on only one other site in Egypt. The houses were built of sun-dried bricks, usually plastered on the inside. Vaulted ceilings supported the upper stories. While the excavation this season has been limited chiefly to the upper layers of the mound which marks the site, and to the Roman period, a large tempel of limestone was completely excavated. It clearly belongs to the Ptolemaic period, and may have been dedicated to Scripta. He Would Listen In After He Is Dead LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 18—Sam R.

GREAT PARADE STAGED BY NEW YORK DIVISION OPENING CONVENTION Thousands of Marchers in Line in Monster Procession All Harlem on the Sidewalks-Great Tribute to Imprisoned Leader Whose Spirit Dominates Proceedings-Splendid Spirit of U. N. I. A. Followers Demonstrated Women You Like to Look at NEW YORK: August 1.—Saturday was U. N. I. A. day in Harlem, New York. Saturday was U. N. I. A. day throughout the United States, in Africa, Central America, the West Indies and wherever the Red, Black, and Green of the Association flies. But Harlem, New York, which saw the first beginning of the movement which was destined to spread far and wide, and awake black men everywhere from their slumber, on August 1 drew all eyes. The scotters stared, the doubtful winked, the "neutral" made no Saturday afternoon appointments—all eager to gauge the effect of the imprisonment of the Hon. Marcus Garvey by the August 1 parade which has been staged by the U. N. I. A. in the metropolis every year since 1915. And thousands of men, women and children were in line, as is the custom, disappointing the sketches, bearing silent testimony to the unbreakable spirit of the New Negro, proving that Garveyism is abroad in the hearts of the people even though Garvey be in jail. The parade of the New York Division of the U. N. I. A., orderly, colorful and impressive, reflected great credit, on those who organized it and must have been saddening to those who take joy in predicting the early downfall of the Association. According to a proclamation issued by the Hon. Marcus Garvey a few months ago, no International Convention was assembled, but every division throughout the world was instructed to hold a fifteen-day local convention. Divine Service New York opened its convention with divine service in Liberty Hall, at which all the officers of the Association were in attendance. The sermon was preached by Rev. Dr. George A. McGuire, Private of the African Episcopal Church. The service over, after a brief interval, the parade formed in front of Liberty Hall. All Harlem was on the sidewalk and at windows. Traffic was diverted from the accustomed routes. We quickly F. D. Bald 47. Bombing Ground Station, NEW YORK CITY. Send me the wonderful 'Jewelers' Molotov, also the Boot Suit.

Frederick, preceded by a band, in the load. Then followed in order the Women's Motor, Corps, under Capt. Minus, and the Black Cross Nurses, under Mrs. Mary Burke. The executive officers of the U. N. I. A. were next in line—Hon. G. O. Marke. Supreme Deputy: Sir William Sherrill, acting President-General, and Lord Henrietta Vinton Davis, fourth assistant President-General; Hon. G. E. Carter, Secretary-General, and Sir Clifford S. Bourne, Chancellor; Sir Levi Lord, Auditor-General, and Hon. Percival Burrows, assistant Secretary-General. The officers of the New York local came next, followed by the Royal Guards, under Col. V. Wattley, led, by a band, and the Royal Engineers, under Col. S. R. A. Dorset. Next came a long line of members, in civilian attire, proudly holding aloft their banners. The juveniles, under Lt. Brown, next appealed, followed by the Girl Guides. The Ladies of the Royal Court of Ethiopia next occupied attention, furnishing the artistic side. They rode on a decorated motor lorry, which portrayed an Egyptian palm grove, a striking portrait of the Sphinx overtopping all. Then claiming attention was a car, gally banned, displaying a full-size picture of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Then more civilians, with banners and emblems, and a long line of motor vehicles of every description. The weather was good, and the parade came off without incident, the marchers proceeding in a silence broken only, now and then, by the singing of the President's hymn, "God Bless Our President." The procession wended its way from Liberty Hall, 135th street, along Lenox avenue, 145th street, Seventh avenue to 161st street, Lenox avenue to 135th street, Fifth avenue to 135th street, Lenox avenue and back to the starting place. By the time the marchers reached 135th street, where is situated the headquarters of the U. N.-H.A., the executive officers, making a detour, had preceded them there and, standing on the steps, acknowledged the salutes and cheers of their followers as they went by. In the evening a grand military ball was staged at Liberty Hall under the auspices of the Royal Guards. Seven States Pass Anti-Lynching Laws WASHINGTON, D. C.—During the last ten years even States have passed new laws for the suppression of lynching, according to a report prepared by Dr. Monroe N. Work, of Tuskegee Institute, which is to be published shortly. Two other States, Oklahoma and North Carolina, have strengthened their laws against the "great American crime." In all thirteen States have special anti-lynching laws. Bills for the suppression of lynching have been introduced in virtually all Southern States. Four of the States passing new anti-lynching laws are Northern or Western. They are, Kansas, Minnesota, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Two, Kentucky and West Virginia, may be classed as border States. Other States with anti-lynching laws are Alabama, Indiana, Ohio, South Carolina, and Tennessee. That our personal suffering is but little compared with that which the Hon.

LET'S PUT IT OVER GATHERING OF THE LOCAL CONVENTIONS AUGUST 1. AUGUST 1 is one of the most memorable days in the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. In his front page article in 'The Negro World of August 1, the founder of the association, Hon. Marcus Garvey, has this to say about it: "I trust, too, that the membership will bear in mind the significance of August 1, as they prepare to hold their local conventions. August 1 should be specially dear to the hearts of all members of our great organisation, for it was on that day, six years ago, that for the first time in the history of the race Negroes from every corner of the world assembled in solemn conclave to formulate plans for the emancipation of the race and the forward march to nationhood and power. "As you meet from day to day in your local conventions remember the great responsibility that rests upon you. Our association, despite what the petty detractor may say, has attained world eminence, and it is for you to conduct your deliberations in such a way as will bring greater respect to our organization and the sacred cause we espouse. Let your discussions be progressive, practical and inspiring. The eyes of your respective communities will be upon you. See that you live up to the lofty principles of our organization." The most important in all parts of the world—the United States, the West Indies, South and Central America, Australia, Africa and England—convened August 1, and began the work mapped out for them. They will not only consider matters affecting their local interests, and they are many in every local division, but those affecting the organization as a whole and they will bring to their work the loyalty and zeal which have characterized them during the past seven years of work and hope and aspiration after higher and better tilings for the race in living. Although meeting separately in their several units, they will be inspired and encouraged by the spirit which permeated the usual international conventions of past years. The spirit of the founder and leader will be with each local convention and it will feel his presence. The Negro World sends greetings and best wishes to the members of the local conventions everywhere and wishes them success in their high and responsible labors. THERE ARE ALSO RACE JUDASES IN AFRICA THE readers of The Negro World should not be surprised to learn that we also have Negro Judases in Africa. Perhaps every family, every race, every nation, has one or more members who are envious and jealous and ready to betray and sell out to the enemy for thirty pieces of silver or a mess of red pottage. They are interesting characters wherever they are found, and they always provoke more or less of trouble for themselves and for their brethren. Their brethren despise them and those who buy them and use them have no faith in them and throw them down and out when they have served them. Talking about this sort, our young, esteemed contemporary of Cape Tqwn, South-Africa, The-African World, says: "Men and women of the African race, the officials of the Cape African Congress of the Western Province have it on authority that a little pamphlet here called The Cape is calling the attention of the Government to the motto used in The African World, namely, 'Europe for Europeans and Africa for Africans.' This, then, is regarded as too inflammatory and a stop should be put to it as it will eventually incite or create a spirit of antipathy. "The Cape is a weekly pamphlet of Nordic upstarts, edited by a white man, a tool of plutocracy, a bourbon type of mongrel. He has been lampooning the African race in his paper to the fetish incastations of the Anglo-Saxon race. He is now trying, as it were, to gerrymander members of Parliament to his way of thibbling. He thinks that by meandering the obstructive tactics he will be able to stem the tide of evolution! THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1925 everywhere should give aid and comfort in the good fight. Those outside of Africa must sympathize with and aid those inside Africa to effect the desired emancipation. The Little Farm Swallowed by A FAMOUS BUT DANGEROUS MAN PASSES OUT WE are all affected more or less by "the fierce light that beats upon a throne." It is a weakness of human kind. The light comes on the throat of the throne a slimmer that is light gives to the creature on the throne a glamor that is unusual and often misleading. The creature may have inherited the crown, or he may have carved it out of flesh and blood by his genius and prowess, but no illumination of his throne or of him can obscure the fact that he is also human. The man and the superman, in the last analysis, differ little in their wants and desires, in their thirst and appetites, in their sorrows and pleasures, in their triumphs and defeats, and they each inherit "nix feet of earth." and if there is any immortality no man has returned from the dead to tell us about it. If man lives on it must be in the works he did while he lived or in the children he begat in his life time. When the superman dies we make a great ado about it. The civilized world rings for a few days with praise or blame of him, and then he drops out of sight and sound and is forgot, if he has not built his monument in his works during his short lease of life. When the ordinary man dies a few people he knew may gather at his funeral and follow his remains to their last resting place, and that is the last of him. A few years and he is forgot, becomes less than a memory. It is the way of the world. And the slave of the master is never the master of the slave until he shakes off the yoke of the master and vindicates his right to rule himself. Few have ever done that; millions have died striving to do that; millions are striving to do that. When William Jennings, Bryan died at Dayton, Tennessee. Sunday afternoon, July 26, apparently in the best of health and spirits and during a short sleep which he counted after strenuous hours of travel and labor, a famous but dangerous man passed from labor to reward. He was a faithful servant of the Lord who went about creating confusion and strife in the land for thirty years, and the fame of him and his splendid oratory went throughout the world. When he died suddenly at Dayton the whole world, in thought, turned to him and the manner of man he had been and had ceased to be. We call that greatness. So it is. But greatness differs in kind as the stars in glory. The glory of Mr. Bryan was that of a demagogue, who fought mostly on the wrong side because he thought it the popular side, and who mostly lost in his warfare because he was on the wrong side. The people applauded him to the echo during the three campaigns he stood for the presidency as the nominee of the Democratic party, but they went to the polls on election. day and voted for his opponent. Strangely enough, however, Mr. Bryan grew fat in fame and money on defeats. He had a rare knack of coining fame and money with his big presence and splendid eloquence. Mr. Bryan was the idof of the Southern Democrats; and that was one of the reasons why he could not reach the White House. He could never be got to make an expression on the wrongs inflicted on the Negroes of the South by the white majority, and he sympathized with the purposes, if he was not an active member, of the Ku Klux Klan. He died at Dayton as a crusader for Christian dogma as opposed to the findings of science, and believed the religious education of the people should be regulated by law, presumably that all the people should be Protestants and white, and should be punished by law when they were not. That is the reduction of the matter to an absurdity as Mr. Bryan believed in it, and the legislature of Tennessee has translated it into terms of law. He died in the midst of a fight to make the people of the United States slaves of a white Protestant religion. When he had gone far enough with the dangerous business, and he was made to show himself to be an ignorant bigot, he was cut down and his body cast into the grave. The world needs all sorts and conditions of men—the good and the bad, the great and the small, the constructive and the devastating—and out of the crucible of it all comes the generation which will make for the best and highest or the worst and lowest in living. If we were all good, or if we were all bad, the race would stagnate and die. Friction, crosses and trials, is required to bring out the best and the worst in human nature, and we rise or fall on the outcome of the conflict between the good and the bad members of the family, the race or the nation. William Jennings Bryan was a famous but a dangerous man, a faithful servant of the master whom it pleased the Lord to cut down after a long life of confusion and strife breeding, out of which he gained much fame and money for himself. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS Every true race man is a radical. He cannot be otherwise, because he must protest, by word or deed against existing standards. He may not accomplish much during his lifetime, but as we look back and see the heritage left us by our foreparents—the religious nature, the courage to fight for their freedom and for ours, the patience and faith displayed—so may future generations benefit by some small courageous acts of ours, and "rise up and call us blessed."—Cleveland Call. Confidence is the first essential of success, in any walk of life. He who believes in nobody knows that he himself, is not he trusted.—Des Moines Press. Southern propagandists, creating and expanding emigrateeism of racial prejudice, will see no more injustice and effective method of averaging the explosion of their seep-hubbli, "white supremacy," than by denying the Negro the privileges of citizenship.

The great need of Negro business now is patronage. Capital, organization, and management are not worrying us so much new. It is the lack of adequate patronage. If a business of ours goes to the wall the race public lays it to bad management, insufficient stock, dishonesty, poor service and everything else but lack of patronage sufficient to keep the business going. We doubt that the public has the right to criticize until it has given the business a fair chance by giving it adequate patronage—Louisville Leader. Race prejudice is a state of mind. The white race is developing a race consciousness which shuts itself in and shuts the Negro out of the circle of enmoblement. The social separation of the race is becoming so sharp and defined that there can be no complete meeting of the minds of the two. In disgrace Preeminent. The Little Farm Being Swallowed by the Big Farm From the New York "Sun" In parts of the world as widely separated as the practices of our own Middle West, the stepspeaks of Russia and the rural sections of England it is becoming apparent that the day of the small farmer is waning. He cannot compete with the big land-owner in this day of tractors, improved machinery and accountancy systems. He must either find some means of cooperation or consolidation for production as well as for marketing or sell out to those who will In England the very real danger of submarine warfare stirred the whole people to a back-to-the-land movement. Large estates were thrown open to cultivation. Everybody, who could get control, of a few acres and weight pick and hoe made hands to do so. After the war demobilised soldiers were encouraged to far farming. Courses in agriculture were opened in many schools, and production of home grown food did for the time increase rapidly. Almost as great a rush from the farm as there was to it, for the simple reason that small scale farming does not pay. The failure is due partly to faulty marketing arrangements, partly to indiscriminate planting and very largely to ruthous local competition. It is, of course, obvious that ten farmers cannot farm ten acres each as economically as one competent farmer, with proper equipment, can farm a hundred acres. It is even clearer that the ten are at a great disadvantage, as against the one, when it comes to selling their produce. A great many of these new agriculturists went in for blooded pigs, chickens, and cattle, handling them with varying results, oblivious of the fact that, while they must sell to dealers as individuals, the dealers could buy collectively, reselling among themselves and "feeding" supplier to the retailers. Thus the producers were forced to sell invariably in a poor market. Moreover, many of them sought to sell directly to consumers, with a natural result that Former A would sell its honey for a few pence less than Farmer B demanded, and Farmer C made a further cut below the price of Former A, to keep his honey from going to waste. All the time England was actually importing food products, which added to competition that was proving rulous to the smaller farmer. Something similar has been happening in Russia. When the Belshevist Government induced the peasants to remain on the land it was forced to recognize their traditional practice of collecting individual holdings. With much difficulty they were persuaded to try American tractors, but tractors can be operated profitably only on fairly large pieces of ground. It was in vain that attempts were made to induce the peasants to throw their lands together and divide the crops. Finally the ingenuity of Yankee salesmen found a way. They began by plowing two or three furrows in a private field. Then, they said, they had to quit because there wasn't enough room in which to turn their machines. The peasants at last saw the point. The first experiments with joint tractor farming were so successful that the authorities at Moscow have taken the hint and are arranging for large consolidations of land for farming. In our own country the lesson is becoming even better learned, not only in the great wheat lands of the northwest, but in the corn belt as well. The tractor rather definitely has halted the once strong movement from the big farm to the small one, and the present trend is in the opposite direction. The big farm became unprofitable through several factors, principally the shortage of labor and the increase in land values. Improved machinery has done much to overcome them both. It is now largely possible to substitute gasoline power for muscle power. Fewer men are needed, but every man with machinery multiplies himself many times. From plowing and planting to reaping and threshing almost everything that used to be done by hand is now done by machine. They are even drying hay by mechanical device, so that it is no longer obligatory to "make hay while the sun shines." Tractor factories are behind on orders. In the prairie country, of Kansas a man plowing by horse or mule power is becoming almost a curiosity. Indeed, the facts seem to justify the editorial boast of the Wichita "Eagle": "The tractor, not in its day of experimentation and its stage of cautious adoption, but in its hour of universal use, now upon us, is leading the level plain to a new era." RACE DISLOYALTY From the Athenae Independent The individual who is not true to his own man, kith or him, is not true to any other man, kith or him, and is aptite of his production of equivalents of acceptance in some other man, the in possession of another, the possession of another man and possession of apparent character. The man who is not true to himself is not from to earthly. France's Color Line in Morocco and Her Other Colonies From the Nation The bitter struggle in Morocco between the Riff tribes under Adel-al-Krim and the authority of Governor General, Layutte raises for re-amination the question of the success of the French colonial experiment in North Africa—especially in relation to the race and color question. France has a deserved reputation of having come closer to solving the color question than any other great Western power. The situation both within France itself and in her colonies is free from those tragic prejudices which make Britain's dominion in Egypt and India seem so hopeless and form a continual ferment of injustice in the South and the United States. South Africans who recently tried to carry their accustomed treatment of the Negro to Paris and demanded the exclusion of that race from some of their favorite resorts received a sharp reminder of the different situation there and here. Resort owners who want to their demands were promptly punished by the French government, and the Americans were warned, that they could not import their race prejudices into France. Other colonial powers of the twentieth century have generally asserted, directly or indirectly, the doctrine of white superiority. But France, as the Millennium Writer, has recently published "Greater France in Africa." "Fully asserts that there is no race and color question, at least officially, and uses every effort to secure complete equality, even social." The French attitude toward race and color has two main sources. One is the natural tolerance, the spirit of "live and let live," which is one of the finest characteristics of the French people. The other is a definite political policy which recognizes the value of the people of North Africa as a military reservoir and sees the advantage of holding their friendship and loyalty. Yet in spite of the generally reasonable attitude of the French, both offensive and defensive actions of the people of color, equality is far from achieved in North Africa, if we accept the account of Mr. Sloane. In fact, equality is a slogan for political consumption rather than an actual administrative program. Mr. Sloane visited Morocco and Algeria as a guest of the French government and a representative of the Committee France-America. The account of his visit may without offense be said, to be friendly toward France. Yet he does not conceal that, in spite of any assertion to the contrary, there is a race and color question in North Africa and that French experiment is, at least, only an approach toward the enormous difficulties and intricacies of a problem that has been continually halted by ancient human prejudices and passions. Even in Algeria, where France has had a foothold since 1815 and general control for three-fourths of a century, Mr. Sloane finds that race equality is not yet a reality. The Literature of French Africa is fairly large [he says], and many so-called novels deal with real life in Algeria. A dispassionate reader finds the plot, either incidentally or mainly, concerned with the hard lot of natives who, after being Gallicized, aim at social equality. There is in them a sense of being between the subject and dominantly race, would seem to indicate that in Algeria at least there is a race, if not a color, question. There are many complexities of race and color in North Africa. The Arabs belong to the Semitic branch and the Berbers to the Hamitic division of the Caucasian race. Both are therefore technically "white," but long exposure to African suns and circumstances has given them a hue almost as "dark as that of the Negroes, who have for centuries formed another considerable element in North Africa—larger still today, when France imports troops from south of the Sahara, to fight her battles in the Middle East, who also an appreciable Jewish "historian Mr. Sloane says that in the large cities of Algeria the Europeans and the natives have separate quarters, although mixing in a business way. Of the country communities Mr. Sloane gives this description: "Some are purely Oriental towns of small size, with crooked dirty streets, a little market-place and scanty bazaars, with a mosque and shabby minaret. Others are just as purely European, built of low one or two-storied bungalows, arranged on streets in some variation of the checker-board plan, with a public square, shops and a tavern or two. In the European towns of Algeria there are always a few natives, in the native towns a few Europeans. But for all practical purposes the permanent inhabitants are segregated from each other." Segregation in a modified form is also under way in Morocco. The mixing of Europeans and natives in the large cities has not been entirely satisfactory, Mr. Stoeck "Accordingly at a certain distance, a mile at least, generally more, from the great towns and administrative centers of each district there have been overgrown quail French hamlets where the orchids and their families reside in plains and houses. . . . These birds of France discover甜点, spoon to give no objection, and native competitor with their own indigenous edifice, their monkeys uncomplained by Indian foot, their bears and muskrat plumes." From The New York World Sir: In The World July 33 is printed a despatch from Paris, written by Col Charles Sweeney, in which he tells why he and six other military aviators are going to Morocco to see how many Rifles they can kill. The colonial evidently writes: in answer to some criticism of his prospective activities and the activities of others. No Rifles have ever committed any act of aggression against Col Sweeney, or threatened his security, or devastated his homeland, or done any of the usual acts which might justify his warring upon them. Yet he is going to kill as many of them as possible, whether directly or indirectly, and is going to use van immensely superior military arm against tribesmen who have only a few scouting machines, badly piloted. His plans can be justified by saying that there are very few wars going on just now and that military aviators have little chance to practice. On what other grounds can they be justified? France is not endangered, she is not fighting for liberty, she cannot possibly be conquered and subjugated by the Riflans. She is fighting an imperial game, seeking to subdue a people who want no protectorate, who in their own way are fighting for the very principle of self-determination' which we were supposed to champion when we entered the war against Germany, Col. Sweeney claims that he is fighting for civilization and for the Sultan of Morocco. Does the Sultan stand for civilization in the colonel's opinion? Is he rather a weak puppet who would throw in his lot with Abd-alkrim to free his country from foreign domination if he had any real patriotism? And why does Col. Sweeney harp upon the Lafayette Escadrille record of his companions in private warfare? Terms like "soldiers of fortune" or "gentlemen adventurers," are they not a little out of date? Does Col. Sweeney know anything about the norfolk record of the Foreign Legion in French colonial warfare. Its genial contribution to the spread of civilization? Does he want to restore warfare to the status of a glorious adventure? Or does he just want to kill a few people? Uniforms of Soldiers Play Important Part PARIS. July 25.--Like the picturequeous red trousers of the French troops which are familiar the world over, the pre-war horizon blue uniform made famous by the polls at Verdun may disappear in turn. Neither it nor drab khaki is considered any longer the most practical color adapted to modern conditions and methods of warfare. That is the enlistment experts have gathered from the Riff campaign where, in view of the anping Berber markamen, visibility plays a vital part for the troops. It is suggested that the army be given room resembling Joseph's manifolds of many hues. Experience in the great war on all fronts with the "dazle" of painted guns abundantly proved that the highest invisibility by vivid contrasting of various colors. Similar-methods brought the best results at sea. It is not impossible, therefore, that armies of the future will be clothed in uniforms of which their brilliant gaudy hues will far surpass anything dreamed of in 'the past—soldiers splashed all over with stripes and lozenges like harlequins. 1,165 Pound Tunnyfah Is Landed on Jersey Shore MANASQUAN, N. J., July 27.—A giant tumpu nearly fifteen feet long and weighing 1,165 pounds was landed on the beach here today by the sixteen members of the Manasquan Fish Company's power launch in command of Capt. Helding Swanson. The captain said the fish was found entrapped in stake nets a mile and a half off shore and that it was beached only after a two-hour struggle in which it repeatedly broke away from gaffs and caused two of the launch crew to fall into the water.

The newspaper adds that the Cairns has accepted the report, which will form the basis of the British policy.

Avilators returning after flying over it early this morning say the walls are still standing but the roof is gone. They thought they saw a handful of French troops in a trench 800 yards away. This occasioned a belief the gerrison blew up the post before the Riffana ended, the tunnel they were building to mine it, and took refuge in trenches in order to await assistance which they knew would come, but not when. The Riffana fired on the airplanes which were swooping low and sought to riddle them with machine guns. While fifteen men strangled back to Toroua through the lines of the enemy, Freydenburg's column was marching to relieve the outpost—fighting against the hilden enemy, against heat and against the sand-filled air eddying under a scorching sirenco wind blown from the deserts far to the south. The column had-only four miles to go, but it seemed like 400. Two hundred feet in front of the advancing skimmers a French plane crashed into the rocks, where it was entirely at the mercy of the enemy. Another pilot returning safely told me the plane immediately was surrounded, although he did not know whether by the French or Rifflaus, but he believed the latter. The air base here is awaiting amply news of whether their fallen comrade is living or dead—In the hands of enemies or friends. Freudenburg's column hoped to reach Ain Bou Alissa while the defenders still held it, but when they started on the trek before dawn they learned it had been blown up. They persevered in the march, hoping against hope they might rescue the wounded Lieutenant, who commanded the post from a litter and directed the fire of the French artillery, six miles to the south, by flashing a mirror while unable to walk. Forty airplanes accompanied the advance, and all available artillery poured barricades opto the crests where the enemy was lurking but unseen. Later in the day airplanes had to be used to fight the enemy, who were filtering, closer and closer to Quezzan, ten miles west of Alissa, but the column kept up a slow, painful advance. A report that a few members of the garrison were occupying a trench near the outpost, was immediately sent to Freydenburg, and it was read to him, who redoubled their efforts in order to save their comrades. It was believed only those able to make the risky march toward, Ternoula—fifteen living skeletons—had been sent south by the Lightmount in command. Of forty-five others that composed the post it is certain some were killed and many wounded. The entire force is believed to have been divided into three groups, sent out toward the French lines along different paths. But although they have not sighted the other two groups, one of these is believed to be fighting to the last breath in the trenches, which may be now their tomb, while a third cannot be located, either by hearse or other long-awaited searches. Latest reports say that when the decision to blow up the post was taken the Rifflans were lying just outside the barbed wire, tossing grenades within the walls. But the report most anxiously anguished has not come in yet — where is the Lieutenant and those who are standing by him? FEZ, French Morocco, July 29. — The period of relative calm which has exited the last few days along the Franco-Rifflan battle front is showing signs of coming to an end. The enemy now appears to have completed regrouping of his forces and is beginning to renew his activities. Thus far these have only taken the shape of raids on the villages of tribes friendly to the Sultan of Morocco and the French, which have been burned, and attacks on French convoys. There seems to be no doubt that the Rifflan leader, Abd-el-Krim, intends to TIS TRUE! YOU HAVE CORNS BUNIONS OR CALLUSES ON YOUR FEET?

The Boualais' post is closely invested by the tribesmen, so that it has to be supplied with provisions and munitions by airplanes. On the east military activities are at a standstill.

BISHOP McGUIRE'S CONVENTION SERMON (Continued from page 2) the New York Division will be holding its local convention for a week or more simultaneously with a thousand divisions over the world. Because there is no International Convention, because our intrepid leader is absent, because financial prosperity is not in evidence, is no ground for presumption. The Negro newspaper of Harlem have taken note of those thirsts and have aloud predicted that this convention is the staging of 'Hamlet' with Hamlet left out. They have further mentioned sixty days as the limit for the endurance of this organization, at the expiration of which it will be homeless and shelterless, with the Negro World defunct. Whether the wish is father of the thought or not, we do not presume to know, but it is for the New York Local, and for all other divisions, in convention assembled, to prove them all false prophets. The Hon. Marcus Garvey, founder, has served faithfully and so this great organization, and it is now others to carry on. Let there be no internal divisions nor strife, for we are all blemished to promote a common cause. Let there be no unjust criticism of the present body, the executive council or the others of this division. For they are all men of honor who must be given credit for loyalty of purpose and devotion to service until they prove otherwise. Therefore during this convention conserve peace, banish self-planting and self-sciking, and strike the program and respond to the appeals made as though the President himself himself were presiding from this testimony. Though he is forcibly absent from us for the last time on August 1, no walks can commence his thoughts and his noble spirit. His thoughts are of us, and his spirit dominates this assembly. 'God bless him in his absence, and may our loyalty to his teachings, as evidence in this convention, convince both friend and foe that we know the truth, and the truth shall make us free.'

On our excursion to Chicago we carried about 2,000 members and friends, with the Hon. J. A. Craigen as ticket agent at the station and Hon. Fred E. Johnson, conductor.

W. A. Wallace, to greet us. A beautiful parade was staged at 1:00 p.m. The parade was a mile and a half long with three wonderful hands heading each Division. Chicago Gary and Detroit Divisions. After the parade a mass meeting was held at 2:00 p.m. at Wendell Phillips High School. The hall was too crowded to accommodate all members and friends and hundreds were turned away from the building. Many beautiful selections were rendered by the choir and three bands and many wonderful addresses were given, but there was one voice missing: one person absent—that, wonderful, character. The Honorable Marcus Garvey. Although no person he was absent, in spirit he was hovering over us. Long live Marcus Garvey! Long live Detroit Division! We heartily thank the Chicago Division for the hospitality shown to Detroit Division and we also thank everyone who helped to make the excursion a success. MRS. FRED E. JOHNSON. Reporter CHICAGO ILL Sunday, July 26, was a gala day in Chicago. It was occasioned by the pilgrimage of the Detroit division to Chicago on that day to be the special guest of Chicago Division No. 23. The pleasure was all that we expected, and even more. We had invited all of the nearby divisions to come over and be with us on the occasion to help us enjoy the rare treat and to do honor to the noted Detroit division. They came, and were more than pleased for having done so. The Detroit excursion train bearing more than 1,300 excursionists arrived at the Forty-seventh street station at 9 a.m., where they were met by the African Legions of the Chicago division under the command of Col. James A. Conwell. They were escorted from there to Liberty Hall, 4002 South State street, where they were greeted by the Chicago and visiting divisions and treated to a free luncheon. At 12 o'clock all of the divisions sell into formation for a monster parade, which started at Forty-ninth and State streets. After passing through prominent parts of the Negro business section of the city, the parade disbanded at Thirty-ninth street and Prairie avenue, at the Wendell Phillips High School, where a great mass meeting was held, with an audience unequaled in the history of the Chicago division. For the occasion Hon. W. A. Wallace, president of the Chicago division, and his staff of officers had arranged a special program, in which such noted characters as Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, Fourth Vice-President-General; Hon. J. E. Johnson, president of the Detroit Division, and Mr. J. A. Craig, former secretary of the Detroit division, participated, and it is the consensus of opinion that they played their parts well. It seems that we can still hear the reverberation of the eloquent address of Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis as well as the resounding choirs of Mr. Craig's admonishing remarks, "Go on! go on! regardless of all the obstacles that may be placed in our pathway" which concluded his remarks. Other notables on the program were the Hon. S. R. Wheat, president Chicago (West Side) division; Mr. U. White, vice-president Gary division; Mr. J. Bryant, president Indiana Harbor division; Mr. Cochran, president Chicago Heights division, and representatives and band of the Milwaukee division. Each visiting division had its band to participate in the musical features of the day. The renditions of the various bands took on the nature of a contest, which only added to the excellence of their performances. The order of the program was as follows: Ritual exercises and remarks by Sumlin, vice-president Chicago division; selection by Chicago (West Side) division chair; address of welcome to W. A. Wallace, president Chicago division; selection, "Ethiopia," united choir and bands; music by Detroit band; remarks by U. W. White, vice-president Gary division; remarks by J. Bryant; president-Indiana Harbor division; music by Gary band; remarks by S. R. Wheat; president Chicago (West Side) division; music by Chicago band; address by Lady Heanliss-Vinton Davies; remarks by J. E. Johnson; president Detroit division; selection, "Booker Washington," Chicago choir; selection by the West-Side choir; remarks by James Grawford, president Chicago; Heights division; selection, "God Bless Our President," united choirs and bands. Dismissed by Rev. M. Brown, chaplain. In the evening, at the close of a perfect day, a day of thanksgiving andasting, when all with gladdened hearts were making ready to return to their respective places of abode; whip those of the outlying divisions were boarding their trains and automobiles; when the more than 1,300 visitors of the Detroit division had again taken their seats in the twenty-one coaches of the special train, chartered for the occasion, and we were all bidding each other good-bye, every soul was still manifesting in unmistakable terms that their cups of gladness were running over. We dedicate it all to the cause, name and honor of his Excellency the Hon. Marcus A. Garvey President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League. E. B. KNOX. RICHMOND, VA The Richmond Division of the U. N. I. A, gave a successful trolley party to Petersburg, Va., on July 27. The affair, was arranged by Mrs. Rosa E. Loving, secretary of the division. On reaching Petersburg a meeting was called at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, of which Rev. Eli Tart is pastor. A brief but enjoyable program was rendered. Mr. Burrell, Johnson, vice-president of the Richmond Dylson, presided. Mrs. Laura P. Johnson, lady president, read an excellent paper on "What Shall We Do with the Negro." Rev. Tart delivered a strong address in the interest of the organization. The Richmond Division is planning to present Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey in a lecture at True Reformers Hall on Thursday, August 15. The public is invited. W. H. SMITH. BUFFALO, NEW YORK R. L. Poston Chapter, held a mass meeting at Liberty Hall on Sunday, July 25. The meeting opened with devotional service conducted by the chaplain, Rev. J. B. Dennis. The first vice-president, Mr. Shemold Dennis, presided while the following program was rendered: Paper, Mrs. Anna B. Patrick; recitation, little Misses Easle Mas Thomas and Gertie Lee Thomas; address, Jessin Taylor; selections by the choir. The address of the evening was delivered by Mr. S. Owens, of the Newport News, Va. Division. The meeting closed by brief remarks from Mr. Dennis and the singing of the National Anthem. MRS. NATHANIEL ENGLISH, Reporter. SWIFT RIVER, JAM., B. W. L. The mass meeting on July 27 began at the usual ode by the singing of the opening ode, followed by prayer. The president then called on the members, as well as those who want to fall in line with the Division, to do so by paying up their dues so that they may become financial with the parent body. That part of the meeting being unfinished, a splendid program was remanded, consisting of songs, recitations, addresses and reading from the Negro World. The Division enjoyed a rare treat in the shape of an address given by Mr. Lewis Levey, a blind brother who had traveled nine-miles on foot to attend the meeting. Following this was another address by Mr. Uriah Shiley, which was heartily applauded. A song by Miss Irene Daughman, the lady president and organist for the Division, followed. She was at her heat and was 'encored.' The other speakers for the evening were Messrs. W. E. Norman and J. Goulding, each one impressing the audience with the thought that as new Negroes, we are to carry on regardless of what the other fellow may think of us. The last song on the program was rendered by Mr. J. H. Norman, our local artist, entitled "Tell It. Out Among the Nations. Glarey Shall be Free." The selection was rendered in fine style. An enjoyable evening was brought to a close by singing the Ethiopian national anthem. The Gary Division announces that through the co-operation of Metras, James Kevin and C. Joseph and the THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1925 diligent, labor of the loyal members of the division we have secured a piece of land upon which to build a Liberty Hall. Many of the former members of the division are rejoining and helping to promote this project. Successful mass meetings, afternoon and evening, were held on Sunday, July 26. Great preparation is being made for the coming convention. Full details will appear in the next issue of the paper. THOMAS BROOKES. Reporter. PORT LIMON, COSTA RICA --- Port Limlin Division celebrated Garvey Day with two mass meetings and a parade. The divine service was held in the morning and was well attended. The general mass meeting was held at 7:00 p.m. The religious service at the evening meeting was conducted by Mr. C. I. Higgins, Chaplain of the Division. Mr. Higgins also preached an instructive and helpful sermon. After the religious service, the first vice-president, Mr. E. S. Hart, took the chair. He presided while the following program was funded: Recitation, "Greetings to Garvey," Miss Vida May Calvert; address, Mr. E. C.

The meeting closed with an address by Mr. E. S. Hart and the singing of the National Ethiopian anthem. The division greatly regrets the announcement of the abuse of Commissioner C. H. Bryant for an extended period. Mr. Bryant has endeared himself by his inspiring and helpful service. G. E. WELLINGTON, Reporter. CEIBA MARIANO, CUBA The Ceiba Mariano Division regrets to announce the death of one of its most faithful members, Mr. Charles William. Mr. William's remains were taken in charge by the Legion and he was buried with ceremony on Sunday, July 5. The division mourns his death because we realize that the death of a loyal member is always of great importance to the work. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved wife and sons of Mr. William WESTMORE CHANCE. Reporter. COLUMBUS, OHIO Lady Henrietta Jinton 'Davis was a distinguished visitor at the Columbus Division on Sunday, July 26. An interesting program was rendered in conjunction with Miss Davis' address. The Universal Band rendered many beautiful musical selections. 'Miss Davis' address was inspiring and instructive and many members expressed the wish that she could be with us at all times. A generous collection was taken as a result of Miss Davis' conquent appeal for aid for the Black Cross Navigation Company in carrying on this great work. R DUNN, Reporter. KINGSTON. JAMAICA Garvey Day was again celebrated by the membership of the Kingston Division in real style. There is in existence that patriotic spirit in Jamaica that makes one feel that the sufferings of the Hon. Marces Garvey will not be in vain. He can rest assured that the cause that he so loves will be even more useful to humanity as a result of his incarceration. Liberty Hall was filled to capacity with an enthusiastic and eager crowd, who are anxious to hear of the health and welfare of Hon. Marces Garvey. The meeting commenced with the singing of the opening ode, followed by the prayers and sermon by our esteemed Chaplain Mr. A. S. Burton. At the conclusion of the divine service Mr. H. B. Green, our 1st vice-president, occupied the chair while the program followed. After the reading of the president general's message by Mr. Gertrude Jones, kids president, the hymn "God Bless Our President" was sung. The appeal for the collection was made by Mr. Chas, D. Johnson, who stressed the importance of the members of all divisions contributing literally for the support of the mab who at this moment is suffering behind the walls of a prison for living awakened the sleeping consciousness of a magistrate of the down trodden people of Ethiopia. The response was liberal, especially when one takes into account the financial depression which affects this island more so in the months of June, July and August. Other addresses and songs were rendered, and the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem brought an enjoyable meeting to a close. SPECIAL CONVENTION NOTICE The Parent Body is the very heart of the organization. If it fails to function properly the whole organization is sick. I must, 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 everyday 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, Acting President-General. NOTICE TO DIVISIONS FLAGS AND BANNERS OF THE ASSOCIATION IN FUTURE MUST BE ORDINATED THROUGH THE SECRETARY GENERAL'S OFFICE, IN ORDER THAT WE WILL APPROPRIATE THE OUTPUT OF SHELL, AS ALL FLAGS, BANNERS, DECORATIONS, I WILL MAKE TO BE ALLOWED IN ALL UNITS OF THE ASSOCIATION. AT A LATER DECLARATION WILL BE SHOWN PRIOR LIST, WITH NORMAL ACCORDING TO THE TYPICAL DECORATIONS SHOWN BEFORE BUILDING. SAMPLE DECORATIONS erty Hall, we are having many outdoor meetings-which are on the whole very successful and well attended. Our Commissioner Hon. S. M. Jones is doing all in his power to spread the doctrine of the U. N. L. A. and deserves praise. Traveling facilities in this island are not very easy to the enthusiastic worker of the organization, but as time goes on we are bound to proceed on much faster lines. The general outlook for the organization here is very promising. Negroes who never even have the movement a thoulihfare are accepting its doctrine and are assisting in promulgating its principles. We can assuredly boast of success. The war between France and Morocco is taking an important part in the affairs of our people. On every side you hear the name of the Arab war lord, Ariel-Krim. Our hearts go out to the Moors in this their struggle for freedom. We wish the parent body every success in furthering the cause of Africa's redemption. CENTRAL MACARENO, CAM., CUBA On Sunday, July 5, the Central Macareno division celebrated Garvey day in a most delightful and impressive manner. The meeting was called to order at 3.30 p. m. by the Chaplain, Mr. N. Williams, who conducted the religious service, and then turned the meeting over to the 1st Vice-President Mr. O. A. Brown, who is now acting during the absence of the President, Mr. R. G. Fuller. The speakers for the evening were Mr. D. Vitalle, Mr. W. H. Simms and Mr. S. Green.

Prohibition Acts Result In Wholesale Crookedness (From the New York World) WASHINGTON, July 19.—Officials of the Government here and members of Congress are interested in reports to the Department of Justice that the Prohibition Acts have resulted in wholesale crookedness and the breaking down of moral standards among law officers in many communities throughout the nation. They realized that there was corruption, but not to such an extent as the actual facts show. Cap. W. H. Stayton, head of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, conducted an investigation on his own hook long before Gen. Lincoln C. Andrews was sworn in as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. Up to a month ago, he reported, 182 law officers engaged in the enforcement of the Prohibition Acts had faced criminal action for alleged overt acts, graft, corruption and conspiracy to defeat the provisions of the dry laws which they were supposed to enforce. Whole Country Covered "In an effort to show the type of men engaged in the attempted-enforcement of Prohibition," Capt. Stayton said, "we gathered information from all parts of the country. "Charges against the law officers ranged from manlaughter to hijacking. Man, were charged with bootlegging, dishonesty and bribery." Those involved were Federal Prohibition agents, policecomm, constables, detectives and sheriffs. What Did Noah Do with The Pests and Fishes? DAYTON, Tenn. July 20 (United Press).—Judge John Tate Raulston, who presides over the Scopes trial says he guesses no unipole ever got so much advice about a case as he receives in his daily mail from all parts of the country. Before court opened, he read this choice hit from the day's collection, slapping his knee and chuckling loudly, his gold tooth flashing, enjoying the fun as much as any of those who crowded around him: $Dear Judge: "What I want to know is, did Noah put on the ark flies, cockroaches, bedbugs, sheep, toads, scorpions and rattlesnakes? If he did he ought to have been hung as a horse thief or shot. "There are a hundred species of fish in the world. Did Noah put all these aboard the Ark? If he did he must have put them in tanks and the tanks would have been higher than the ark. And how did he unload them again and get them in the ocean? You have got lots to think about. Don't pay any attention to Bryan. He is a fool and his stuff is bunk. You will be a fool, too, if you do."

CASH, OR CREDIT Dear Comrades: I am embracing this opportunity to speak to you at this particular time as a servant of this gigantic institution. The absence of our great leader inspires me to do so. During my incumbency of the office of Assistant Secretary General we have been through correspondence thrown into contact with each other. During the past year we have had some very perplexing problems. As the first day of August comes and goes the closer get to the realization of the absence of our indomitable leader: Marcus Garvey, the master mind, who gave birth to the spik which has truly lit the fanning torch of liberty for our people in every quarter of the known world, the man who has enabled us to see as we have never before seen. "There is nothing new under Heaven." In men of genius we rarely meet with anything original, but we find in them truth, with which we are more or less acquainted, grouped with fresh power, and set forth with new meaning and beauty. This is surely true of Marcus Garvey. It is easy at all times to discriminate between the man of desire and the man of determination. The personality of the former is hazy and irresolute. One hesitates at every top; the other carries an air of vitality and decision with him wherever he goes. One waits for things to happen and criticizes when the other fellow does the things he might have had in mind but through lack of courage and determination did not attempt, to put into execution. We, therefore, need strong men who are in sole possession of their own wills, men who are honest and will not jeopardize the interest of their race for their own selfish whims or fancies but who will show themselves approved according to Paul. "Workmen that need noteth to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth," not race salesmen—but statesmen. While you sit in conclave for these fifteen days always bear in mind that reforms, morally and otherwise, grow out of a suffering people, born of a spirit of discontent. The Universal Negro Improvement Association's cause is a rightful one. We are, therefore compelling this wicked and unfair world to learn that righteousness exulteth a nation but sin is a reproach to any people. Be not, therefore, discouraged in the cause which you are saving. Have faith in God, confidence in yourself and abiding love for and assurance in your leader. Wishing you every success in your deliberations, I am. Fraternally yours: P. L. BURROWS. Assistant Secretary General. A wife's jealousy seems especially amusing after you see her husband. Almost everything that now is ortho dox was heresy at one time. HARBEN.—The site of the ancient city of Marucho, once capital of the kingdom of Targut, is reported to have been discovered by P. K. Kosloff, a Russian explorer. He recently has returned from a two years' stay in the heart of Mongolia, bringing with him, it is said, quantities of treasures of interest to scientists. A library of 2,500 volumes in seven languages and some 350 pictures are said to have been recovered from the ruins of the long lost city, covered for centuries by the sands of the Gobi Desert. Some of the books reported to have been found are in a language hitherto unknown to philologists, but the explorer had the good fortune to find a dictionary of the language, which should greatly facilitate the translation of the books. Chivalric Americans Desert French Wives From the New York World PARIS, July 7. Twenty-seven wives of Americans were abandoned in France last month, according to Paris newspapers. It is asserted American husbands send their French wives to Europe for a vacation, promising to keep them well supplied with money, but this is only a pretext for getting rid of them. No money comes to women who have been thus deserted and stranded, and often they are not even informed that meanwhile they have been divorced by their husbands on grounds of desertion of their homes. Figures are quoted to show 1,000 out of 5,000 Francon-American marriages since the armistice have ended this way. French authorities have been asked to take up the matter with Washington. 400 Killed in 200 Days By Motor Cars in Chicago CHICAGO. July 20. The four hundredth death from automobile accidents in Chicago and vicinity in 1925 has been recorded, an increase of 22 per cent over the first 200 days of last year. "Children to the number of 121 are included in the 400 dead," said Coroner Wolf. "More than two-thirds of the victims were pedestrians." Chicago's four hundredth death was one of nearly a score reported throughout the country over the week-end. Five motorists, including two children, were killed at a grade crossing at Brookfield, O. Three Illinois residents met death in Indiana, while five deaths were recorded in Illinois. One death was reported at Grand Forks, N. D., and one at Los Angeles. The Sunday casualties brought the week's total of automobile deaths in fourteen Middle Western States to 35, with several injured. Let Us Remember— That our personal suffering is but little compared with that which the Hon. Marcus Garvey is now cheerfully enduring for the race. Rebel:—A librator before he puts it over. Your Secrets to the Right Man. Happy in Friendship, Business and Domestic Fairs. High John, the Conqueror, Admiral and Eve, all kinds of Roots and Herbs. THERE is not a man or woman who has not at some time or other had troubles, whether it be in business or in the home, in courtship or in marriage. Life is not lived without its joy and sorrows, its failures and successes. It's all in the game of life whether you cry today or smile tomorrow; whether you are rich today or poor tomorrow; but he who can take the will for the deed, and anticipate sunshine after rain, is the fellow who is bound to overcome the hardships of life. Many of us who are Christians use these words in our prayers, "Lead us not into temptation," but how many of us understand the meaning of this supplication to our Heavenly Father; how many of us are able to pass through the crucible when the test is applied, although we pray not to be tempted beyond our strength. Yet we must be prepared at any time for the temptation that will test our faith in Him, and our fitness to be partakers of greater earthly blessings. When sorrow comes into your life, ask yourself, what is the purpose behind the affliction, and to what use can such adversity be put? If you are on a sick bed, it may be a chance for you in the silence of your bed chamber to review your life, and to resolve on a new course when you recover. If you are broke, it may be an opportunity for you to find out who your real friends are and to know and appreciate the real value of money when you acquire it again. If you are in prison, it may be the means of self-chiding and a determination to be a more useful citizen when you regain your freedom. If you are disappointed in love affairs, perhaps it is all for the best, as he or she might not have been faithful after marriage. If your business fails, try some other line, you may make your fortune in that. And so in all wolks of life, one should aim to overcome temptation and to conquer, misfortune. The fellow who yields and throws up his hands in despair goes from bad to worse and pesters the world with his whinings—that fate was against him, and the Lord forsook him. If the late Charles Steinmetz had not been a cripple, this country might not have benefited by his electrical discoveries. As a more robust man he might have shunned the dull monotony of laboratories, and taken up some other business, at which he might not have excelled. If John D. Rockefeller had been born rich, he would not have appreciated the value of one dollar, and have been able to so invest as to make two out of one. If a McSweeney had not died on hunger strike, the sympathies of the world would not have been aroused to the extent of forcing Great Britain to make Ireland a free State. If a Yaghloud Pasha, Gandhi and Garvey had gone to prison their cause would not have had such phenomenal success and intensified the determination of their followers for nationalism. If a Christ had not died on Calvary's Cross, Christianity would not be the ruling spiritual force in the world today. In truth one must be prepared to make sacrifices if he would enjoy great rewards, either for himself or for others. He who can see opportunity through adversity and good in everything exemplifies that faith in self and faith in God that make of him a successful and contented man. COMMON AILMENTS OF CHILDREN BY THE BLACK CROSS NURSE OF NEW YORK Adenoids and Enlarged Tonsils.—The symptoms which indicate that a baby is suffering from adenoids are roostless sleep, snoring, snuffling, sleeping with the mouth open and inability to nurse properly. All these conditions, are due to the fact that these enlarged tissues partially close the nasal and throat airpasses so that the baby cannot breathe freely. Eater the same causes may lead to deafness and other defects which very seriously hinder the child's growth, both of body and mind. All babies, who show any signs of trouble of this kind should be examined by a competent physician who will decide how early the operation for the removal of these growths may be performed. Children suffer so seriously from this disease that no parent should be willing to have a child start out under such a handicap. In the hands of a careful surgeon the operation is a slight one, and in many cases the relief is immediate. Colic.—This is caused by indigestion due to overfeeding, improper or too frequent feeding. The bowel is distended by gas, giving rise to revere pain. The baby cries sharply, alternately drawing its legs up to the body, then kicking them away. Do not feed the baby while the attack lasts. Warm water may be given if the baby will swallow it, but be careful to holl the water and cool it before giving it to the baby. In a very severe case of colic an enema consisting of, one-half, jeacupful of warm soap water will very often give relief. Colic is peculiarly an alliment of young babies and usually disappears by the third or fourth month. Sometimes a change of position will give the baby relief, and be careful in keeping the baby's feet warm. Prohibition Found LONDON: July 18- The man who started India on the road to total Prohibition presented an interesting figure to the correspondent who went to interview him in his London hotel. Leona and spare of figure, the Hon. Chinifunl Mehta impresses one as a successful person in all walks of life. The problem with us was urban and not rural," remarked Mehta, "because more than 50 per cent of the total consumption was distributed among about twenty towns with a population of more than 18,000 each. Bombay City alone being responsible for close on 33 per cent of the whole. The rural areas having a population of more than 15,000,000, did not consume more than 1,300,000 gallons. "Indians were" practically Prohibitionists by nature and even when the evil was at its highest there were very few cases of drunkenness as such. The trouble lay with the working classes, whose wages were low, and anything spent on liquor meant a substantial reduction in the necessities of life. "I have in mind one village in Gujerath," said Mehta, "where as a result of a social movement in 1921, we closed all the liquor shops, and have had no occasion, or demand to open them again. The condition of agriculture has immensely improved. Flays Suggestive LONDON, July 29.—If women were to go about without any clothes at all, it would be "far less repugnant to people of good taste" than are the present suggestive styles, in the opinion of 75-year-old Cardinal Gauquet, Vatican librarian, here on a visit. "There is more suggestiveness about the fimay clothing they now wear than there would be in complete nudity," said the aged churchman. Meantime, Roy. Richard Free, an English vicar, preached a sermon in which he declared that "day by day in every way the fair sox is growing nakeder and nakeder," and questioned whether the police would have to be called in, as they were on account of Parisian ladies' costumes after the French revolution. Iodine Tells Housewife If Corn Is Not Sweet BEVERLY. N. J., Aug. 2.—The woman who goes marketing may in the future slip a vial of iodine into her vanity case as a first aid to successful selection of the sugar corn she boys. Experiments made by Federal and State agricultural agents indicate the practicability of the test. Farmers say that not all is sweet corn that masquerades as such in the market. Corn is merely white, field, or horse corn in its green stage. Complaints of consumers brought about the test. Ears of different varieties of corn were used. A few kernels were split and a daub of iodine applied. Field corn turned a light brown. The poorer kinds of sweet corn became a darker brown, while genuine sugar corn changed to black. The war gave us many new words and a brand definition of the word "bean." THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1985 By Jane Dixon in New York Telegram A booklet entitled "New New York Law: Discriminate Against Women." Compiled by a nation-wide group of women laboring valiability for establishment of sex equality. Front-page, the booklet broadcast seven laws on the statutes of the Empire State, each one a fluttering pulse beat of those Dark Ages in which woman was regarded as a chattel of man and jurisprudence was administered on the basis of her physical, mental and moral inferiority. "New York." reads the text, the boasted center, of advanced thought, still does not accord woman civil and political equality with man. "While the New York statutes disclose a modification of common law injustices to woman, even today she is subordinate to man, and the two are not co-ordinate. A common prejudice yet prevails against her, and a fair field for her genius and her industry is not open. Here are the seven points which prove the charge that the vaunted most progressive Commonwealth in the most modern Republic on earth refuses to allow equality of opportunity to its citizenship:— 1. Mother's authority over legitimate children is not equal to fathers. 2. Women bear the brunt of burden of illegitimate parenthood. "3. Married women's services in their homes belong to their husbands. "4. Women are not allowed to serve on juries. "5. Men are preferred to women as administrators. "6. Women in industry are handicapped, by discrimination. "7. Women teachers are denied equal opportunity by school regulations." Do you know that under the listed rulings the father owns the services and earnings of minor children; that the father alone is entitled to sue for injuries to children? Do you know that the mother of an illegitimate child is equally responsible with the father for its support; that it takes her name; that she is its parent for practically all purposes and must assume the weight of responsibility. Do you know that if a wife performs services in her home for persons outside the family, such as taking in boarders or lodgers, the earnings belong to her husband; that she cannot enforce payment for services if she works for him in his place of business? Do you know that the husband's domicile controls the wife; that the widow's share in her husband's property is often less than the widower's share in his wife's property?

WASHINGTON The Start from New York and the Long Delay at Philadelphia, Due to Engine Troubles—Meeting with the Philadelphia Local—Many Visitors on the Steamship—The Start for Norfolk — Beauties of the Ocean at Night Written For The Negro World By HANNAM NICHOLAS We sailed from New York January 18, 1828, at 6:25 p. m. An enthusiastic crowd of people waited to see us sail and wish us bon voyage, after which dinner was served in the dining room, which was, beautifully lighted with electric lights; the tables were decorated with flowers and shining silver and glass. While we were still seated in the dining room we neared the Statue of Liberty, holding aloft her beacon light, seeming also to wish us a pleasant journey and a safe return. After dinner we retreated to the ladies' salon, where we talked and worked cross-word puzzles. At 10 we retired. This was my first night on the water. I slept well and arose at 1:30 a.m. feeling fine. The day was spent pleasantly by the passengers reading and conversing until evening. An accident happened in the engine room, but fortunately it was just as we dropped anchor in the Port of Philadelphia. The accident caused no discontinuity to the passengers and we retired about 10:30. Early Tuesday, January 20. Mr. Garvey came on board the steamer and later the tug towed us into port. We spent the day aboard ship. In the evening we attended the meeting at Liberty Hall. Mr. Fred A. Toote is president. In spite of the cold, the meeting was well attended. The people rallied in support of the ship and also made a present of a victoria to the ship. The accident to the engine delayed us eight days, during which time we attended the meetings nightly. After the meeting Wednesday night, January 21. I attended the midnight show at the Lyric Theatre, Broad and Cherry, with my sister, who resides in Philadelphia, to see Floren Mills, whom I had missed seeing in New York. I enjoyed the show very much. She is a very clever actress and has a charm all her own. Thursday we had our pictures taken for passports, and at the evening meeting at Liberty Hall the members of the choir presented 'Mr. Garvey with a paper ship, a model of the Booker T. Washington. Mr. Garvey was suffering for a couple of days with an attack of asthma, but would not give up, and was very busy all day long, preparing for our leave on Sunday. On Saturday, January 24, about 8:30 a.m., on account of the eclipse, it was very dark for several seconds. In the evening we visited the division in Filmwood. It was very cold and the pavement as smooth as glass. Because of this the meeting was poorly attended. Many visitors came to the ship every day and seemed so proud to see a ship owned by Negroes. Sunday they began to arrive about 10 o'clock, as the afternoon meeting was held on the ship. By the time the meeting started, 1:45 p. m., the deck was crowded and the dining room, where the speakers were, was filled to capacity. The speakers, Mr. Garvey, Miss Davis, Mr. Carter, Mr. De Vena, Mr. Johnson, all spoke, Mr. Roselle, president of the Camden, N. J., Division, gave a very encouraging talk on the value of the ship, telling them it was an asset of which they should be proud and urging the people to support it. During Mr. Garvey's speech the people were moved to tears and there were hearty responses and amnesia all over the room. The people remained on board inspecting the ship and talking until ordered ashore about 5:30 p. m., as we expected to sail at that time, but the captain informed us that we would not sail until 5 a. m. Monday. Monday morning there was a heavy fog. We could not see the lights at the dock. The fog continued until about 8:30 a.m. when the pilot came to tow us out; and a few minutes of 10 we sailed out of Philadelphia. There were quite a few people who came to see us off, and we are on our way to Norfolk. The sun came out beautiful and clear, and every one aboard was smiling and happy. As evening drew near and the sun began to set, the scenary was wonderful. The sun seemed to rest on the water, where the skyline and water meet, like a ball of gold, making a direct path of gold to our ship. The clouds took all shapes, and looked like a landscape painting, with trees and shrubbery. We watched while a glimpse of daylight remained. We spent a very enjoyable evening, as the passengers were all very sociable, and retired later than usual, about 11 o'clock.

OH, YES; LOVE IS MUCH MORE THAN "ILLUSION" (From the "New York Sun") The woman was having dinner downtown one evening with a group of young and very modern business women and the conversation turned, as it so often does nowadays, to the current dialect in the lasting qualities of love. None of them spoke of it as other than a brief illusion, and the atmosphere was blue with cynicism. It was depressing and, the woman found herself becoming more and more dejected and distressed as the meal pre-gressed. It was all true, she felt the belief was too general to doubt it, and to hope for anything better was but fully, futility and waste of time. Accordingly, when the dinner was over she took her gloomy feelings and thoughts into the gloomy depths of the subway. "If love is only an illusion," she thought, "then everything else that seems worth while is, too, and so what's the use in anything?" But just here she began unconsciously from force of an observing habit to look around her at her fellows in human misery and her attention was drawn to a little round tub of a man and an equally round, little tub of a woman who were standing very close together near her. They were an elderly couple and obviously strangers in the city from some smaller sown and unaccented crowds and the noise that they had encountered during the day showed plainly in the tired face of the woman. The man was tired, too, but man like he was endeavoring not to show it and the woman was clinging to his arm as to a veritable rock of refuge. There was something about the attitude of both that prompted the woman to seek a closer glimpse of their faces, and as she did so she caught a look that passed between them. It was just a Almost every Negro organization is represented in this contest, and I am sure that it is your desire that we should win.

England.—One of the many things I had decided to find out on my trip to Europe is the lot of the white-working people as compared with that of the Negro in America. At first glance, I am prepared to say that the lot of, even the humbler Negro is better than that of many in the more genteel occupations here, so far as wages and the cost of living is concerned. The more I see the firmer grows the conviction, that were it not for color prejudice the United States would be a black man's paradise. At present it is that of the white man. The United States, with its enormous resources right at hand, has, comparatively speaking, no poor people as compared with these older habitats of the white race. Wages in London, so far as I have found out, are from a half to a third of what it is in America, particularly HON. MARCUS GARVEY S In a telegram to Sir to the international rally Body, Hon.

I have talked with dozens of the laboring whites, and I find that they get about from seven and a half to ten dollars a week. A recent labor report said that more than 50,000 railwaymen are getting less than $12.50 a week. A railroad inspector told me that he got three pounds, or $15 a week. A Pullman porter in America gets as-much without tips. The average stenographer gets about $10. A good one in the office of a friend of mine is paid $6.25, and his glad to get the job. In America she could command not less than $20. Housemaids get from $2.25 to $6. I know several maids in America who get as high as $50 a month for four hours' work daily.

Recently in one of the popular restaurants I paid $0 cents for the following: a ham and egg sandwich, a cup of tea, and two pieces of cake, equivalent to a single portion in a New York hotel. Room rent is slightly cheaper. A room that brings $8.50 costs about $5 here, minus most of the conveniences, such as steam heat and hot water, which are practically unknown. Living in the country parts is cheaper, but so is labor. Woollen clothing is cheaper and of superior quality, but cotton goods are about as high. Fruit costs about the same as it does on Lenox Avenue. this is that it is assumed that since these men can afford to enter these expensive places, they must be persons of consequence. Britain has many black kings and princes, and who knows but that these Negroes may be one of them. And as to the Hindu princes, many of whom are quite Negro-like in appearance, they cut quite a figure in social life. One of them recently gave a party that was said to eclipse anything seen here for some time. As was said, it is a matter of class and mostly of money. A black man who would be received at the Savoy may be refused on Tottenham Court Road, because it is assumed that if he was a person of consequence he would not enter the latter place. How the working people make ends meet is a mystery to me. The majority must be living on the bare margin possible. On the other hand, there is much evidence of great wealth. The rich, however, complain of the high income tax. There is a great deal of unemployment, and it is a calamity to lose one's job. Doles of about $4 a week are paid to the unemployed, but with the high cost it doesn't seem to relieve the situation very much. It is no uncommon sight to see men and women crouching in a doorway, that being their only home. At the Thames embankment hundreds of these derelicts may be seen any night. During the four years England was at war she lost much of her market abroad. At present her imports exceed her exports by several million dollars. But, while America leads England in those things that make for bodily comfort in matters of culture and good taste, the former is proportionately as far behind. I know the average white American well, and to speak frankly he is a boor, as compared with the lowest class of English. I have met some of the best class and of the lowest here, and I have found good bleeding uniform throughout. So far I have yet to meet a rude person. The average London "hobby" is a polished gentleman compared with a New York "cop." And, by the way the London policeman doesn't carry a gun. The culture of the English people is best manifest in the manner in which the law is observed. In 1922 England and Wales, with a population of 38,000,000, had 102 murders, white Chicago, with its 3,000,000, and New York, with its seven million, had over 300 apiece. To a Negro coming from the United States, the courtesy is to say the least, refreshing. Color Prejudice Color Prejudice And this is not to say that there is no color prejudice here. I have talked with several full-blooded Negroes, and they have pointed out to me several places where they say, they are refused service. These places were all of the lower class. Many white people have also told me that the dark Negro is not so welcome, as his color is so obvious. On the other hand, the fact is that very dark Negro habitants of mine go with white men to the best hotels and restaurants to dine and to dance, and are received with the courtesy accorded any other guests. I have been told that the reason for this is that it is assumed that since these men can afford to enter these expensive places, they must be persons of consequence. Britain has many black, kings and princes, and who knows but that these Negroes may be one of them: And as to the Hindu princes, many of whom are quite Negro-like in appearance, they cut quite a figure in social life. One of them occasionally gave a party that was said to eclipse anything seen here for some time. As was said, it is a matter of class and mostly of money. A black man who would be received at the Savoy may be refused at Pottenham Court Road, because it is assumed that if he was a person of consequence he would not enter the latter place. West Indians of the poorer class blame it on the Americans; who they charge with importing color prejudice. They point, o the time before the coming of the latter when England, was a black man's paradise. I think, however, that much of the blame is on the Negroes themselves, certain rowdies by their actions making it bad for persons of like color in certain neighborhoods. White Americans have, doubtless, done much to spread color hate throughout Europe. In a recent talk with, Mr. John Harris, parliamentary secretary and author of several books on the Negro, the latter assured one that American influence was at the bottom of most of the existing prejudice in London. Nevertheless, the black man still enjoys privileges unheard of in any part of the United States. But he must have money, for if he hasn't this is about the last place on earth for him. And this is understandable, or so many here are already in need themselves. I have met several Negroes who are doing well, and they declare that the idea of their returning to their homes in the United States. Canada or the West Indies is unthinkable. to the color question, there seems to be little interest in it. The only times I have known it to be brought up by white persons was when I brought it up. Mixed couples seem to attract little attention. Last Sunday at a cricket match in Regent's Park between Negroes and Indians I saw no less than six of the former go with as many white girls into a crowded tea garden. Remembering the furor such a thing would have created in America, I watched carefully but failed to note the slightest excitement. It may have done so in inwardly but perhaps those there were too well-bred to stare. The English people, so far as I can see, have the happy knack of each minding his own business. To get the average Englishman to converse you must begin, and he'll be the first to stop. Surplus of Women. England is a woman's country, so far as numbers are concerned. The saying that there are seven women for one man seems to be highly true. They seem to enjoy considerable independence, too, smoking on the streets, busses and parks, and drinking in the saloons with the men. And they don't seem the worse for it. I have seen fewer drunken people in London than I saw in Harlem. One result of travel is to correct one's information. I had always been led to believe that American white women were prettier than Englishwomen. The reverse is true. In a matter of facial beauty and complexion the latter are superior. American women, however, dress better and move with more snap and life. Of course, I am speaking of white women, for I am still of the opinion that when it comes to looks, and knowing how to put on clothes and then move with grace in them, the Seventh Avenue belle has no equal. Englishwomen are also much more natural and unaffected than American women; not. I suppose, because they inherently better but because there are so many, they must compete for the men. In America, with its greater percentage of men they must compete for the women. It is the old law of supply and demand. Boasting Tourists The average white American is little liked, largely because he is an offensive booster, and hits a way of depreciating everything. The fact is that almost everything in America is on a newer, more modern and convenient plan, still it is bad taste to be always rubbing in how much better off you are than the other fellow, and he retorts as we do in America: "If you don't like it here why don't you go back home." Hero one is judged not according to his color but his nationality, and I have constantly to be explaining in my own defense that the above-mentioned type does not represent the better class of American in pretty much the same way that I had to tell white people at home that the rowdy Negro is not typical of the race. In the next article I will tell of some of the historic places I have visited as th. Tower of London, the Guildhall, St. Paul's Cathedral, and some of the persons I have met. (Columbian Press Bureau) WASHINGTON, D. C.—In Bulletin No. 44, published by the Women's Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor, the gain of colored women in the occupational divisions of the manufacturing industry is marked. In 1836, when conducted in group connection with native white, foreign born white, Indiana, Chicago, Japanese, and all others, the inclusion of colored women was 4.4 per cent. The legislation grew in text pages. In the propagation station, to all per cent. in government affairs women be given the per cent. in prize so that per cent. would be in government affairs. 'Are you losing WEIGHT? Are you always TIRED out and KNOCKED out? Do you walk around without any COURAGE? SITTING? Don't go away from the gravel Don't miss this opportunity! Come out Time Dial! Order the From the London Times (Weekly) The debate last week in the House of Lords on Kenya and on East Africa generally transcended in importance many of the recent discussions in either house of Parliament. The questions raised in the Report of the East Africa Commission are at once stimulating and profoundly disturbing. In this report a complete account is given for the first time of a new Imperial responsibility that has come upon us almost unawares. The picture given in the Report of the extent of British control in a large area of Africa, and of the confused response of primitive peoples to the impact of civilization in the various forms and tendencies that are represented in our own conflicting, but still homogeneous society, is calculated to arouse doubts, hesitations, and fears that were clearly reflected in several apaches in the Lord's debate. These million or so of imperfectly investigated square miles of tropical and fertile territory, these twelve millions or so of primitive human beings, whose character, hopes, tendencies, and present conditions are still incompletely registered and are exposed to a bewildering irruption of new influences, are now a charge upon the conscience and the intelligence of the British people. The thing is done. We cannot escape from it. Lord Ollier and some other speakers concentrated on criticism of certain features in the present regime in Kenya, which, since it is a British Colony and has an important percentage of settled British population, they regard as typical of the general tendency of our effort and aim throughout East Africa. This kind of criticism and inquiry is altogether useful, even though it may be mistaken in detail. We cannot afford to make bad mistakes in any part of an enterprise that now clearly appears to be so big in its implications and its possibilities. The Kenya question, with its tangle of European, Indian, and African interests, is but a conspicuous element in that general East African question with which the Empire is now faced. The Archbishop of Canterbury, in the admirable speech in which he pleaded for a long and broad view of the East African problem, took fully into account the anxiety for the welfare of the native population that had been expressed by other speakers. He strongly emphasized the ethical character of the new task that has been undertaken by the British people in East Africa, and the moral trust it involves for the well-being of the native peoples who are now suddenly caught in the sweep of an alien and very active civilization. In regard to the difficult labor question that had been raised by Lord Olivier, he pointed out that the Belgian Government; which has had many unhappy experiences in the Congo, has now established a rational system which, while preserving the native population against the abuse of indiscriminate exploitation, will provide both for public works and private enterprise the labor that is actually available. The real point of the Archbishop's speech lay, however, in his insistence, on the extremely imperfect nature of our information on the tremendous East African problem with which we are now confronted. The Parliamentary Commission's Report stated the East African problem in its whole impress- are extent, and, in so doing, it raised innumerable doubts and questionings. The actual figure of the total population is uncertain, and it is not clear whether the population is increasing or decreasing. Questions of education, disease, and tropical agriculture are still in the stage of groping inquiry. Scientific investigation, as the Report clearly shows, is starved in the stress and routine of administration. It is clearly useless to embark on such big schemes as the transport enterprises recommended in the report unless there is some more exact idea of what our commitments are and what are the scientifically determined possibilities of this great territory and its varied and barely awakened population. At the end of the debate Lord Bailen, speaking for the 'brownspots', came forward with the brilliant idea that he was the only secretary in three years of his and novel programmes. He persuaded the questionnaire of an historian, Dr. Robert Bailen, for the benefit of the audience of all and young people, by his brilliant speech. He said that he was interested in the subject and that he was interested in the subject. Hamilton Grange CO.

The big economic, racial and physical facts that must now be carefully investigated in such regions as East Africa lie very largely outside the competence of any Government Department. The government, if it is to take long views and to respond adequately to the imaginative impulse which our new responsibilities awake, must be fully advised and fully informed by just such a committee of scientific experts as that which Lord Balfour proposes, on the lines of the Committee of Imperial Defence. It is high-time that scientific planning were brought into the service of our growing Imperial needs and Lord Balfour's idea of a sort of scientific Imperial General Staff should certainly be realized very soon. Its production is a very hopeful sign that the government is aware of its extending Imperial responsibilities. Like That of 1553 and 1740 PARIS, Aug. 2. Next Winter will be long and hard, according to investigations by the astronomer-priest, Father Gabriel, whil. Professor Guillaume Bigourdan, Director of the Paris Observatory, has described to the Academy of Sciences. Father Gabriel has discovered that the lunar solar cycle of 741 years is divided into two periods of 572 years and four periods of 186 years. He asserts that the weather follows these periods, and that this Winter will be Negroes "Pardoned" by Woman Gov. of Texas AUSTIN, Tex.—After a thorough investigation of the records of scores of colored inmates of the State Penitentiary by a pardon board under James E. Ferguson, and a report to Governor Miriam A. (Ma) Ferguson, the newly elected head of the State government performed one of the most outstanding acts of executive clemency that the Lone Star State has over known, by signing pardons for $0 Negroes. Most of the men to whom Governor Ferguson granted pardons had had no friends to intercede for them. It was Governor Ferguson who several weeks ago issued orders for the State militia to protect two colored men confined in a Dallas jail from a mob of whites, if they had to shoot to kill, which they did, repulsing the mob and killing one of its members. as severe as were the Winters of the years.1558 and 1740. His observations are based on researches into the works of historians, poets and writers which were likely to give weather indications. The French astronomer, Arago, had already remarked on this recurrence of hard Winters, without indicating the periods between them. Let Us Remember— That our personal suffering is but little compared with that which the Hon. Marcus Garvey is now cheerfully enduring for the race. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1925 Spanish Section Ha llegado la hora para la celebración de las convenciones locales, según disposición de nuestro presidente general, el honorable Marcus Garvey, de fecha 1 de mayo la cual apareció en esta publicación en su número de mayo 16, 1925, y en sus números sucesivos. Los Métodos de nuestro movimiento en revisión—La significación del 1 de Agosto debe ser retenida en nuestra mente—Los temas de discusión en las convenciones locales han de ser progresistas—La dirección que triunfa—Preparemonos para aprovechar toda oportunidad beneficiosa que se nos presente—Nuestra institución intacta—Su táctica sometida a cambios Nuestro honorable presidente general considero esta disposición, la más adecuada para la existencia permanente del desenvolvimiento de la organización y, su preservación en contra de la actitud maliciosa de sus enigmos, asignando a todas y cada una de las divisiones y capitulos quince días para convenciones locales. Con tal objeto el cuerpo directivo expide las siguientes instrucciones, las cuales han de servir de guia en dichas convenciones locales: El programa que tenemos el honor de promover demanda la constante cooperación, de parte de todas y cada una de las unidades que componen la gran suma total de nuestro movimiento, y no podemos poner el suficiente enfasis a la necesidad del cumplimiento de nuestro deber en cuanto a la organización respecta, durante este periodocritico en la historia de nuestra raza. 1. Ninguna persona será admitida a la convención local a menos que no sea miembro efectivo de la organización. con la excepción de aquellas personas recomendadas por un oficial de la misma, según lo prevee la Sección IV, Artículo 1 de la Constitución. La memorable fecha 1 de agosto tiene una significación de alta trascendencia en la lucha establecida, y debe ser recordada con gran veneración y mayor cariño. En ese gran dia, seis años ha, se llevó a cabo por vez primera en la historia de nuestro pueblo la reunión de aquel solemne conclave, al cual compareció la representación genuina de la raza, procedente de los cuatro puntos del globo, con el noble, propósito de formular los planes para nuestra emancipación y nuestra marcha hacia el establecimiento de un poder nacional. 2. Ningún miembro que no este al corriente con sus euotas de división, capítulo o cuerpo directivo será admitido a tomar participación en las deliberaciones de la convención-local. 3. Ninguna división o capítulo con un número menor de cincuenta miembros efectivos, celebrará convención local, sino que unirás sus fuerzas a la división o capítulo mayor en su comunidad o población advacente. 4. Cada división o capítulo sufragara los gastos de sus propios delegados. A medida que de día en día nos reunamos en las respectivas convenciones locales, tengamos muy presente la gran responsabilidad que sobre nosotros descansa. Nuestra organización, apesar de todo cuanto en su contra se haya dicho, ha obtenido aceptación universalmente, quedando a nuestro cargo la propia condución de las deliberaciones las cuales traigan como resultado, mayor respeto a la organización y al ideal sacrosanto de la causa que defiende. Los temas a discutir estarán basados exclusivamente en ideas altruistas y de sentido práctico. Con la miras de las respectivas comunidades en estas deliberaciones, hemos de concretarnos a los sanos principios de nuestro movimiento. 5. Ninguna división o capítulo atendera a la convención local de otro estado o provincia. 6. Los temas sometidos a discución estará basados geneticamente en el progreso de la organización y en el envolvimiento de la comunidad: El programa de la convención local estará sujeto a los principios establecidos por la organización. Una copia de sus minutos será enviada a la oficina del secretario general, innediatamente después de clausurada la convención. 7. La situación política de la comunidad y el papel que nuestro elemento en ella desempeñe, será considerada como un tema de vital inferes y sometido a la sanción de la convención local. Todos aquellos que dirijen, llamense generales en el ejército, estadistas en el gobierno ó jefes en la industria, deben tener su programa. Este debe ser cuidadosa y propiamente delineado antes de ser sometido a la sanción de aquellos a quienes se intente dirijir, siendo esta regla aplicable tanto a las grandes fuerzas del universo como a las organizaciones establecidas. Los enevargados de la buena marcha de esta institucion, por lo sagrado de su compromiso y de su deber, dirijen de acuerdo con su mejores calculos de tiempo, de efecto y de resultado. Los que detenidamente observan nuestra marcha han debido notar que la organizacion ha ido gradualmente cambiando su actitud y su aspecto. Ella ha tenido que someterse a tales cambios debido a la clarividencia de los que guian su destino y al caracter de la época en que vivimos. P. L. BURROWS. Secretariat General Asisteente. Acción combinada hispano- francesa en marruecos (De La Prensa, N. Y.) Todo parece indicar que la conferencia hispano-francesa de Madrid no termino sin que Francia obtuviera, no puede siquiera adinvarse a cambio de que compensaciones, la cooperación militar, así como politica, de España en la lucha contra Abd El Krim. El director que no puede medir el tiempo, el director incapacifado para calcular, resultados de condiciones 6 circunstancias, guia hacia el precipicip, guia hacia la destrucción. Por el contrario, aquel director capaz para aventjarse de cualquier época, de cualquier circunstancia, ha de conducir aquellos a quienes guia al puerto salvador tal como sean los anhelos de la multitud. Cuando desde su iniciación hasta tres años ha, esta organización presentó su programa directamente a nuestro elemento del modo mas compresible, con el específico objeto de despertarle del letargo de tantos años y así pudiera serciararse de lo peligroso de su situación, desgraciadamente fueron muy pocos los que prestaron atención alguna a nuestro toque de llamada. En aquella época se nos tildó de radicales y con sobrada razon tuvimos que adoptar una política agrestiva, por ser la hora propicia para estampar en la mente del negro todas las posibilidades de un futuro mas brillante. El viaje precipitado de Primo de Rivera a Tetuán y la conferencia que alli celebrará esta semana con el mariscal Petain, son sin duda el imicio de una acción conjunta de los dos ejercitos. Ya se han hecho por el español varias operaciones de gran eficacia, en proximidades de la frontera del Lucas, que permitieron a los franceses salvar varios puestos que estaban a punto de rendirse and los rifeños: Parece que la coopération activa va a llevarse más lejos. Están ya esbozadas operaciones de importancia, que pueden llegar hasta el avance a fondo desde Melilla y desde Tetuán, para batir, de concierto con Francia, a Abd El Krim en su misma madriguera. Todo esto puede ser lo que haya tras del transparente aviso dado por Primo de Rivera a la opinión al salir de Madrid. Nada podia ser más grato a Francia. Sus dipláticos y sus militares lo habian venido solicitando en términos de ansiedad incultable, mientras los ríefes avanzaban hacia Fez y Taza. Las discusiones en Madrid han sido muy empenadas. Hay derecho a esperar que, ya que llegue España a tener que hacer el "esfuerzo" que sugiere el jefe de Directorio, sus delegados en la conferencia hayan sabido aprovechar, serena, racional y friante, las ventajas de su posición frente a los francases. Durante el periodo en referencia recurrimos a todos los medios posibles para injectar una actitud conciente en el sentir de nuestro elemento en este pafs, en las antillas y en el mundo entero, profetizando lo que habría de acontecer pocos años después de la última guerra, con respecto a los grandes cambios que afectanian directamente la vida económica de nuestra raza. Pero entre sus múltiples millones muy pocos fueron los interesados, y las masas a nuestro alrededor sin conocimiento de causa se interpusieron en nuestro camino como piedra de estrobe hacia la inmediata realización del gran objetivo, y cuando la mayor parte de la humanidad, se hallaba envuelta en la mas grande de todas las conflagriones universales. Lo contrario seria deplorable. El problema de Marruecos parece encaminado ahora a una solución definitiva. Pero España lo habia ya resuelto, bastante aceptablemente, desde que Primo de Rivarra tuvo el acierto de rotirar sus líneas al frente de la costa y dejar que Abd El Krim, convencido de que se estrelleba contra el defensor valviera las forquides contra sus encargos los frustres. Kestra, desde sus instinctos, comunica a su fuercer un víspera con idéntica al de los encargos durante más de quince años. Eriduotompa, la orgulla mayor en la historia ajutal en der Francia y de España. Bien esplícita ya ven su estudio en el libro de coyote y de los Como resultado fihal del poco interesa manifestado, permanecimos en el mismo estado dando lugar a que el universo recuperara su anterior normalidad y no la perturbara el rugir del caifon, pudiendo secuchar no solamente el oco, sino parebir la plena significación de la menor palabra prostomachia. Apostar de tener contrariedad prometida a esta palabra comprensiva, la organización se halla ante insulta. Su poder en ha de donde sentir unverdadmente y fierce ni se de convenir como una determinación con la cual hay que dispara y que granja apenas. La determinación han determinado que principios de solución y secenido noble y principios de instrucción que instruyen los siguientes de su sofianza y que instruyen la determinación y ella metodos de la civilización fueran penetrado gradualmente en la zona rebelde, bajo la autoridad de los representantes del Sultán. España no tenía "imperio africano" que perder. Y en cambio habla ya perdido muchos miles de hombres y muchos miles de millones de pesetas en el romántico esfuerzo de civilizar rápidamente a los rifones, que se resistieron a civilizar. . . . muy eficazmente sostenidos por la civilizadisima. Francia. Por que habia España de lanzarse a otro "esfuerzo" ahora, exclusivamente para cubir al "imperio" francés de Africa de un peligro enminente? Cuando se ha resuelto hacerlo de be esperar que se ha obtenido diplomaticamente lo que puede y debe obtenerse. Porque ni los francéses hanido a Madrid a "estrochar lazos de fraternidad" por impulso romántico, en el instante en que se detrümbaba su frente del Rif, ni el Direcitorio ni nadie tiene derecho a arrojar, más vidas y más millones españoles, en Marruecos simplemente para dat algún valor a los discursos elocuentes pronunciados en los banquetes que abrieron y cerraron la conferencia de Madrid. El Directorio puede tener su triunfo mejor y decisivo solucionando para siempre el problema africano. Pero seria un pesimo principio de la nueva tentativa de solucion lanzarse a una ofensiva por al interior del Rif pàràb el abrir pàs a los franceses por el norte, sin más motivos ni más esperanzas que obtener de Abel El Krim términos de paz razonables y satisfactorios, desde el punto de vista de Francia. Perturbando la paz entre dos pueblos El Listin Diario de Santo Domingo reproduce un articulo traducido del Courrier Haitien que se edita en la república de Haiti, alusio a ciertos hechos graves que se dúncanian han ocurrido en la frontera'. El articulo en referencia dice como sigue: "En la frontera de Hincha y de Valliere, pasan hechos mughes graves. El capitan Kelly, jefe del distrito de Cerca la Source, que ha visto fracasar su primer plan el cual consistía en maltratrar habitantes de esas regiones, para excitarlos a rebelarse, trata ahora de fomentar combinaciones para, provocar un movimiento en esa línea con muestros vecinos. Su poder, y se extiende desde cerca de Source, lugar de su residencia, a Tomasico hasta Paquayo, apenas a dos kilómetros de Hincha, le permite creerse capaz de provocar dificultades con muestros vecinos de Bánica; republica dominicana. He aquí los hechos tales como han ocurrido: con el pretexto de que los dominicanos maltratan a los haitianos en su casa, el capitán Kelly an su locura por perturbar las relaciones entre los dos pueblos, obra secretamente, disfraza gendarmes de civiles y los manda a hacer proposiciones a cindadanos para un chique entre dominicanos y haitianos; tomando precucciones para hacer pasar a los dominicanos como agresores. Estos hechos deben retener la ateución del pueblo y piden una investigación imparcial, no de la gendarmeria, pues. la orden de obra puede emanar de los superiores yankees; perio si de notabilidades independientes e intransigentes: Atención, gritamos nosotros, ese oficial, americano no podría obrar de ese modo sin una orden de sus jefes. El pueblo está desarmado por otra parte. La gendarmeria solamente puede, pues, proveer un movimiento armado en Haiti. Varios haitianos a quínes han hecho proposiciones de entrar en la combinación del capitán Kelly, están dispuestos a atestiguar lo que decimos. Hasta están muy inquietos, por haber rehusado su participación en ese asunto. Denunciamos a la opinión el lazo grosero de los americanos." Civilización y barbarie Yo no he creido nunca que sea imposible la paz entre los hombres ni entre los pueblos. Sé muy bien en cuál genero de incapacidad mental se clasifican la inocencia de pensarlo y la temeridad de decirlo. Paro creo que entre todos los matices de que podemos teñir voluntariamente nuestra vida, el más odioso y aborrecible es el rojo de sangra. Un solo hombre que viva en la cabila atacado de esa visión trágica, envenena a la cabila entera.

Magazine Section ANCIENT TREASURE-LADEN GALLEY IS FOUND IN CITY UNDER THE SEA In spite of the fact that the Ashanti people have always been referred to as "intridip fighters," "conquors" and the like, and that the name of Ashanti was feared from Timbucu in the North to Cape Coast Castle; and from Lake Chad to Sierra Leone, yet an impartial consideration of their policies must disclose these people as the most humane and orderly of all the black nations of West Africa. The Ashanti people never appealed to the sword so long as the amazing diplomacy for which they had been given credit by their Moslem neighbors, could be used to further their ambition of confederating the black nations of West Africa in one powerful and progressive league. Of course, when this diplomacy failed, when peaceful overtures and watchful waiting could bring no satisfactory results. Ashanti would let loose the "Dogs of War" and so prove to the tyrannical nations around them that they also possessed a well-trained, and invincible fighting army. This was exemplified in their dealings with the powerful kingdom of Denkikra to the Southwest, between Ashanti and the coast. Powerful, arrogant and despotic was Denkikra in the days before the great genius of Osak Tutu had welded together the Great Ashanti Empire. Bosiane, the Denkikrah monarch, used to harass the trade caravans of the commerce-loving Ashanti, and tyrannise in general over the smaller and weaker nations around him. Oost Tutu had dispatched many embassies to Boslanti, in an endeavor to bring about peaceful relations between the two countries. The Denktranr, drunk with power and feeling themselves secure in their domination, made light of, or completely ignored these overtures. However, after the brilliant series of conquests by which Osai Tutu had extended and greatly limited his empire, Boslanti dispatched an embassy, to Coomatis to congratulate the Aehanti monarch, and also expressed a wish to bring about an alliance between the two countries. This reapprehension may have had a much happier ending than the one told of in an earlier chapter, had it not be hoped a very unfortunate occurrence in connection with the negotiations which I will tell her, as incidents like this show the genius, courage and forsakenness with which those black men were endowed who built up the Aehanti empire. The Queen of Ashanti, a very clever and astute woman, was at this time the head of a Woman's Patriotic Organization. Very often ambassadors were chosen from this organization and sent on diplomatic missions to the surrounding nations. On this occasion the Ashanti monarch dispatched the Qinion and twenty other noblewomen of this organization to the court of the King of Denuka as a return compliment, for the mission which that king had sent, to Commission. While he entertained at the palace, Bosante expressed a dishonorable affection for one of these noblewomen, in such terms as amounted to an unforgivable insult. Although charming under the insult to her noble colleague, the Ashanti Queen said nothing to arouse the suspicion of Bosante as long as her party remained at the School Savings Systems (California State Bureau) WASHINGTON. D. C.—A system of thrift that will have a far-reaching effect, especially among the thousands of colored pupils, is being taught in many of the public schools throughout the country. The number of schools in the United States reporting school savings systems increased from 6,665 to 9,080 during the year closing June 30, 1924, according to figures recently compiled by the American Bankers' Association. Pupils participating increased from 1,907,851 to 2,236,326 in the same period, and the collections increased from $191,631,839 to $149,921,535. Bank balances carried on June 30, 1924, amounted to $20,435,144. In the City of Duluth, Minn., where there is an enrollment of more than 10,000 pupils, school savings deposits are carried by 93.7 per cent of the pupils. Albermarle, N. C. with an enrollment under 2,000, reports a savings account for every school child. In addition to thrift, these school banks are frequently used for practical training in the banking courses offered to trainees of the commercial departments of many public schools. LONDON, July 7.—Discovery of an ancient, treasure-laden galley lying across one of the streets of a recently found city under the sea, between the Island of Jerba and the mainland was revealed here today. By Sir E. Danison Ross, Director of the School of Oriental Studies. (The Island of Jerba, or Gerba, is off the North Coast of Africa in the Gulf of Gabon.) A few months ago Sir Duncan made public the news cabled to The World at the time of the finding of the ancient, city under the sea. The Great galley, diversity, must have been sunk after the city was engulfed by the sea. It was customary to bring treasures of great value from Greece in gallows, sold Sir Duncan. There most happily purified with vines and gold wife Denkiran Capital. As soon as the Embassy returned to Coomaras, however, she reported the treatment of the moblewoman to her royal husband. Titu became incensed and took cath that the insult should be atoned for with the life of the miscreant magearch. He therupon sent an ultimatum to make war upon Denkiran, but, strangely enough, the terms of the ultimatum granted the Denkirans one year in which to prepare for the campaign. All during the year granted the Denkirans, the Ashanis continued their trading with the Coast, as usual passing through the territory of Denkiran; nor were they molested, so great a respect for their prowess had been established among the nations. Before the expiration of the year, Boslain died and was succeeded by his son. This, however, did not turn Tutu, from his purpose. At the expiration of the time given in his plumatum, Tutu collected an army of sixty thousand fighting men and invaded the country of Denkira. The Denkarians were defeated and the young king taken a prisoner back to Coomassile. The highly organized condition of the Ashanti people was fully demonstrated by their treatment of the vanquished king. Instead of being mistreated or kept a prisoner, Tutu had him educated at the royal court at Coomassile along with his own sons. He was afterward given a technical training at the Ashanti Military School at Asuatu, and eventually placed in command of the Ashanti army. The young Denkiraon king proved his courage and loyalty to the Ashanti confederacy by defeating the English more than once at the head of his reductable army. It was about this period that the European nations began very reluctantly to realize the existence of a Black Empire in West Africa, utilizing were highly organized methods in their government and in their warfare, growing in influence acquired by astute trading and advanced methods in the industries and manufactures. The name of this nation they leagued was Ashanti. They also learned that these progressive black people maintained an extensive caravan traffic with the far East and North, accline the greatness sands of Sahara. They learned that these black people had built a wonderful, well ordered and well-kent city, Coomaghe its capital. That this city contained well laid out and numbered streets. That their houses were large and commodious, built of stone and of their own peculiar architecture, neatly and luxuriously furnished. The reaction to this discovery on the white nations is deserving of more than passing notices. The Dutch and Portuguese used every means to bring about amicable trade relations with these industrious and ambitious people. The English traders and officials inaugurated a policy of treachery and ecological antagonism that led to many a bloody war and eventually resulted in the complete subjugation of these hardy black people and the destruction of the amazing fabric of orderly and progressive government they had labored on adjudiciously to create. My next article will outline some of these policies and just what England hoped to gain by their application. Colored Population of Cities WASHINGTON, D. C.—Estimated colored populations of some of the leading cities of the United States as of July 1, 1925, have been made by the U.S. Census Bureau. The figures for eleven of the principal ones follow: New York, 186,139; Philadelphia, 163,964; Chicago, 150,063; Washington, 119,644; Baltimore, 117,369; Cleveland, 49,856; Pittsburgh, 45,166; Indianapolis, 42,117; Louisville, 40,478; Cincinnati, 35,152 and Kansas City, Mo. 34,966. The populations of Atlanta, Detroit, Los Angeles and Norfolk are omitted pending the establishment of more satisfactory figures. The total estimated population of New York city is placed 6,103,384; Chicago, 2,985,238 and Philadelphia, 1,978,364. War games are not realistic. They afford no practice in frisking the government. obviously most likely to sink, and it is probable this gallery, on its way to Africa, sank just before reaching the coast. This would have been many years, or perhaps centuries, after the city was submerged. "Count de Pronok, the French explorer, is so interested in the discovery he has decided to abandon work at Carthage three months, so as to devote all his time to examining the city under the sea and the Greek gallery. "I understand a member of Greek vase already have been brought up from the gallery, and there are to be carefully examined, to give an accurate idea of their data. Submarine compars are being taken to the spot to photograph the submerged city." Only one before has a Greek gallery containing treasure been discovered. This was Carthage about three miles away.

Do they consider that we are like the old fashioned Negro, obedient, like a weather cock to the master's blinding? if so, our 300 years in the Western World has gained us nothing. Be it known by all, friend and,oe, that we are full grown men, capable of manning, our own affairs—political, moral, spiritual or otherwise, and desire to be left unmolested to work out our fate. Negroes know very well that history always repeats itself and that every good to, he achieved must have sufferers, and martyrs. Therefore, we are prepared to give, unstintingly to our leaders as, sacrifices. Does anyone think that we are so simple and feeble minded as to expect such a grand organization to carry out its project without setbacks and embarrassments? -Nay; we are looking for more than that; we are looking for and, prepared for bloodshed and that seems to us very trivial when it comes to possessing our objective. Garvey behind prison bars or the wicked law-suits thrust at us to export money from the UNITA, will only contribute to a state by which failure will flee giving place to a noble and pleasant; consummation of the true Negro's loftiest ambition. Yours for African redemption. JOSELYN C. THOMAS. Victoria de Las Tunas, Cuba. Appeal to Black Cross Fund Is Very Gratifying To the Editor of the Negro World: I want to tender my congratulations for the great success which the drive for the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company is meeting. I have read with pleasure the various contributions which the many members of the organization all over the world are making so promptly and willingly. This spirit clearly shows that the seven years which our great leader has spent pointing the way have not been in vain. His followers do realize their responsibilities. Mr. Garvey is making the supreme sacrifice. We are not being asked to do this, but we are expected to do all in our power as members to promote the work. Responding liberally to the various financial appeals, joining and supporting the various auxiliaries of the organization are two of the ways in which we may all help. FRANCIS X. QUESTEL New York, N. Y. Cubans Appreciate U. S. Support of U. N. I. A. To the Editor of The Negro World: "We rejoice at the same support that American Negroes are giving the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It encourages the oppressed members of our race in other countries to learn of what you are doing in America. Many members of our race in Cuba are just an injested and enthusiastic as those in other parts of the world. Nature's Way of Forcing the Hair to grow long, soft and healthy.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1925 but we are not always able to do as much financially as we want to do. The production of sugar is the principal industry in Cuba, and when the price of sugar is low it means that wages are low and money is scarce among the working classes. Very often we are unable to buy the necessities of life. Notwithstanding these handicaps, the fire of Garvayism burns brightly in our breasts. We who are often unable to do much, are appealing to the member of the race who are more fortunate not to fail to do their part. We believe that God will open a way so that Cuba will some day be able to hear her full share of the financial burden of carrying on this great work. Well, You Should Become A Member Immediately To the Editor of The Negro World: I am not a member of the association, but I always keep in touch with the work through The Negro World. I very often have long talks with members of the organization. Recently, after a talk of this kind, I became more and more impressed with the fact that I can never do anything worth while for my people until I join the U.N.L.A. and help to redeem our Motherland. I hope that MarteGarry will soon be relegated to carry on the splendid program which he has begun. Were tolling upward in the night. CHARLEE WILLIAMS. Esmeralda, Cam., Cuba. "To Be Without a Country Is to Be Without a Home" The Honorable Marcus Garvey is in Atlanta penitentiary, but he is still called upon us through the officers who are directing the work to do our part. The establishing of the Black Cross Operating Fund in one of the best things that the organization has done since Mr. Garvey's imprisonment. Through this means, every man, woman and child is able to help the program, no matter how limited their means may be. My wife and I have already given ten dollars each to this fund. I am glad that we were able to do so. I have made up my mind that I will die trying to help save my people. We ought all work together even more than we did before Mr. Garvey's imprisonment. Many of us are saying that, we would be willing to die for this great movement. Let us prove this by living for it and helping it to grow. A race without a country is like a man without a home. We have been living in the homes of other races for more than four hundred years. It is high time for us to get a home of our own. Our slogan must continue to be "Africa for the African" until our homeland is redeemed. REV. ZEBEDEE GREEN. Pittsburgh, Pa. THE NEW HERB DISCOVERY STUBBORN BLOOD DISEASES?

PRESENTED BY Susan 6th, Sue 6th, Mary 7th How, We Must Measure a Man To the Editor of the Negro World: How do we measure a man? We measure him by the height of his ambition, his confidence and faith in himself and his race; by the great knowledge of himself and of his race, and of the world's affairs; by his intelligence, his ideals and his clear vision. We measure him by the depth of his uncompromising and determined stand for liberty; by his perseverance and unconquerable will power. We measure him by the extent of his influence; the impression that he has made upon the associates and the footprints, which he will leave on the sands of time; by his devotion and incomparable service to his race. We measure him by the extent of his success, advancement and accomplishment; his love, his loyalty, his energy, his reputation, his honesty and his aspirations. The Honorable Marcus Garvey possesses most of the qualifications which make a man great. And these qualifications stamp him as one of the greatest men of this day. Today he faces the world four-square. He has the depth, height, length and breadth of a real man. He has met the requirements of a leader of the race for whom he now suffers. No matter how much he is persecuted or humiliated, even though a host of enemies rise up against him and condemn him, it does not matter. We, for whom he now suffers, know he is no criminal. We are not ashamed of Marcus Garvey. He is no disgrace to us. On the contrary, he is a credit to us, because he represents the best there is in the race. The Negro race shows all possibilities of giving to the world tomorrow a new culture, a new science and a new civilization. The African is showing to the world that the Negro possesses great initiative, strength and power yet to be developed. As a people we will remain unmoved, come what may. Nothing; can turn us from our goal, which is nothing shorter than a free and, independent Africa. Mr. Garvey was pictured once between two U. S. Marshals on his way to Atlanta. Some day he will be seen on his way to national success, bound on his right with freedom, liberty, independence, commercial and industrial force, and on his left with national wealth, military power, praises and honor. I pray God will take care of the Honorable Marcus Garvey in prison and grant to him a long and prosperous life and a double portion of his spirit. C. D. AUSTIN. Ciego de Avila, Cam. Cuba. We Must Get Together Economically and Individu To the Editor of The Negro World: I feel proud of the fact grows the world over are waking up to the fact that they are the lost sheep, and that Marcus Garvey is the sheep herd, who is trying to get the sheep together. It will be a great day when the Negro takes his place economically and industrially. When these days come, we shall have reason to be proud of the race. CLIFFORD A. BROWNE Blackpool, England.

OCCULT SCIENCE ACADEMY 188 Church St. Dept. 819, New York City WHY RE UNLUCKY To the Editor of The Negro World: It is encouraging to note that Negroes are awakening to the fact that if they do not make a program of their own, they will be completely left out of world affairs. Our people have been too much inclined to leave the solution of their problems to the other fellow. It is fine that we are learning to shoulder our own responsibilities. The Honorable Marcus Garvey has been preaching the doctrines of the U. N. Y. A., for more than six years. He has been urging our people to make a place for themselves. He preaches the redemption of our homeland, so that we will have some place to call our own. We have met with many setbacks and discouragements, but ours is a just cause and we are bound to win in the end. If we remain true to our trust, everything will come right in time. DAVID CLARK. Suffolk, Va. Thirty-two Bureau Operatives Appointed Dur ing July. 1925 (WASHINGTON, D. C. - During the first three weeks of July, 1925, thirty-two colored girls who had qualified under civil service rules as printers' assistants, were appointed as press operatives of Uncle Sam's big money-making plant, which is officially known as the U. S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing. These girls, like dozens of their predecessors, after making good on the press, are eligible for promotion to positions as counters, trimmers, examiners and other technical posts connected with the "money-making" industry. As to interracial relations at the bureau, Director Alvin T. Hall, who was recently appointed from Pennsylvania, said: "Since I have been director of the bureau there has not been a single instance of ill feeling between the white and colored employees. They work side by side in happy realization of their responsibilities, striving always for efficiency and cooperation."
