The Negro World

LEPW PUT IT IN THE WORLD The Independent Weekly The Voice of the National Negro A Newspaper Devoted solely to the Interests of the Negro Race VOL. XIX. No. 1 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1925 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GRAVES AND SEVEN CENTS BLACKWHALES IN THE 10 TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES DAILY MISTREATMENT BY THE UNGODLY SHOULD SPUR THE NEGRO ON IN HIS QUEST FOR NATIONHOOD AND POWER Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: Be not disheartened by the propaganda of the enemy. Continue to stand four square whatever winds may blow. Know the present-day propaganda of the knockers for the discouragement dish it is. Answer the critics with support, and more support, for the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Take no thought for individuals. The Cause is the thing. Rally to the program and principles of the Association with all your resources. This is my message to you. The Only Slaves I want you to realize that the U. N. I. A. is in dead earnest and capable of spread from its program. I realize that the great power will be accompanied with the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. The U. N. I. A. is endeavoring to draw into one united whole the four hundred million Negroes of the world. We believe that the time has come when the Negro should build himself a mighty power in the world. We realize that this is the age when all races are striking out for their national, racial independence. We have found out that we are the only race of people deprived of liberty, deprived of democracy. Because of that we have decided to unite our forces to demand from the world what is coming to us in the cause of freedom. Nothing to Conserve Sacrifices of all kinds must be made. Some men have labeled us radicals. They say we are too radical and that the Negro should not be a radical, but that he should be a conservative. I, for one, have tried to argue the question why the Negro should be conservative, and I cannot find any reason why he should be conservative because he has nothing to conserve except his chains. Negroes have nothing else to conserve but industrial peonage, serfdom, jim-crowism, lynching and burning. I believe that if any race of people should be radical Negroes should be. Radicalism is a label that is always applied to a people who are endeavoring to get freedom. George Washington was dubbed a radical when he took up his sword to fight his way to liberty in this country. I am perfectly satisfied to be the same kind of radical George Washington was. If through radicalism I can free Africa I am glad to be a radical. Poisoned Against Africa This question of Africa must be settled. We hope that it will be settled in the present century. We want to understand the African question well. Our enemies, our enemies, have tried to misrepresent us about this African question. The name of Africa is a very peculiar title to mention in Negroes. My contact with American West Indian Negroes prior to the organization of the U. N. I. A. single me from the average American, and the average West Indian Negro had no interest in it. We admit his unquestionable antagonism, and we are prepared to accept it. IT MATTERS NOT WHAT THE ENEMY MAY SAY, THE U. N. I. A. WAY IS FOR THE NEGRO THE ONLY WAY IT MATTERS NOT WHAT THE ENEMY MAY SAY, THE U. N. I. A. WAY IS FOR THE NEGRO THE ONLY WAY WHAT IS THE REMEDY FOR MANHOOD REPRESSED, WISHES FLOUTED, AMBITION MOCKED? A Government By and For Negroes, a Free and Redeemed Africa, Controlled by Four Hundred Million Black Men man's propaganda in the West Indies, the white man's propaganda in the Western Hemisphere has been that of turning the Negro's mind against his own country. They have told us that Africa is a hideous place inhabited by savages and cannibals. They have told us that no civilized, cultured race would think of going to Africa or worry about Africa. While they have been telling us that to keep us from thinking about Africa they themselves have been going down into Africa for the last five hundred years and taking everything from Africa that was worth while. If you look at the map today you see all Africa controlled by the alien races of the world with the exception of Liberia and Abyssinia. Benefit of Nationhood The members of the U. N. I. A. believe that the time has come for us to make a beginning in the adjustment of our African affairs. What do we desire in Africa? We desire a mighty government—call it republic, empire, call it commonwealth, call it anything you like. What we desire is a mighty, powerful, strong government in Africa. In desiring a mighty government in Africa it does not mean that all of the Negroes of the United States or the West Indies will go right away to Africa. We want a government built by Negroes in Africa so strong that Negroes, whether they be in America or the West Indies, can be citizens of such a government, and when you touch one such Negro—whether he be in New York, Illinois, Georgia or Alabama—you touch the entire African empire. That is the kind of political program the U. N. I. A. has in view. We say that if it is right for the white man politically to dominate, if it is right for the yellow man in Asia to dominate, it is also right for the Negro peoples of the world to dominate. God Almighty created of one blood all nations of men, and when he created man he never said to the Negro, "You shall be the servant of the white man." He created us as men in common with other men. The hour has come for the four hundred million Negroes of the world to acquit themselves like men. Our followers may have slept for hundreds of years, but the time has come for you, who represent the new manhood of the men, to go forward and fight for the principles for which you have so unwilling to make on this Almighty created me an African. An African I shall be all the days of my life. Tired of Abuses The white man has been speaking for us for three hundred years, and what has been the outcome? Lynchings, burnings, industrial segregation and peonage. We ought to begin to talk for ourselves. As a race, as a people, we have suffered long enough. The New Negro is determined to change this situation regardless of the price. The New Negro is tired of being abused and ill-treated. The time has come for us to stand up like men. For, after all, it is only a question of manhood. If Negroes believe that they are men they will have to measure up in this world of men. you believe yourselves pigmies and dwarfs you will remain where you are, where you have been for hundreds of years. First of all, you must have the consciousness of self. You must have faith and confidence in yourselves. The world is what it is today because of the confidence of the white man in himself. You must have confidence in yourself that you can clear the forest and survive the hardships of the pioneer. You must believe that you can build a city and build a nation. Such is the confidence of the U. N. I. A. in itself, and that is the confidence on which we build. Those of you who have no confidence in self may as well say your prayers and die. This is the age when only men who are fit will survive. The world is too thoroughly organized, the world is too progressive, the world—civilization and culture—is too far advanced to wait on the man who has no confidence in himself. Men with faith, men with confidence, are bound to win. Separated and Divided Too Long Negroes have been separated and divided too long. That is why we have never taken anything. What the world has for us it has for us in common. But there must be a time for preparation. Rome was not built in a day. Africa cannot be redeemed in a day. But we must be thoroughly organized. We must come to the realization that we need a nation. We must reach the place that when you touch one Negro you touch four hundred million. The U. N. I. A. is no little secret organization. It is a world-sweeping, comprehensive movement. It takes in all Negroes everywhere. You cannot be too rich or too poor to belong to the U. N. I. A. We are organizing because we no longer desire to be the political and commercial slaves of other races. We do not want tolerance and protection. We desire racial liberty and freedom. And nothing else will do. The ever-recurring sight of your men hanged from trees by the mid-cries aloud for action. The knowledge of your daily degradation should urge you on. Your manhood represents your white flouted, your strivings and ambition modked should arise as fuel for the flame that levels for you a path to naked hood and power. Keep ever on and on, the daunting methods of the godly notwithstanding. ONWARD TOWARD NATIONHOOD SLOGAN OF NEGROES OF THE WORLD WILLIAM SHERRILL, ACTING PRESIDENT-GENERAL, IN BRILLIANT SPEECH ADDRESSES HIMSELF TO THE PROBLEMS CONFRONTING THE ASSOCIATION AND THE RACE AT THIS HOUR. POINTS OUT THE NEED FOR EACH AND EVERY MEMBER TO ASSIST IN BUILDING UP THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES OF THE ORGANIZATION OUTLINES THE POLICY WHICH MUST RIGIDLY BE PURSUED IN THE FUTURE Every Division in Its Community Must Acquire Real Estate—The Objective Will Be Easy of Attainment with 100 Per Cent. Support of Negroes of the Western World—The Race Must Be Self-Dependent Financially The Remarkable Service Marcus Garvey Has Rendered Will Always Be Appreciated Following is the text of the speech delivered by Sir William L. Sherrill, acting President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, at Liberty Hall, New York, on Sunday night, August 3: "Seven years have passed since thirteen Negroes, inspired and led by Marcus Garvey, organized the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Seven years of bitter struggles with Negro groups in the race who, being drunk with white psychology, could not see from a black man's point of view. Seven years of stiff opposition on the part of white forces who have seen and felt in Africa, the West Indies and Central America, the dangerous effects of the teachings of the Universal Negro Improvement Association on their systems of oppression, rape and exploitation. Seven years of sad disappointments on the part of members of the association who have worked and sacrificed their time and money only to see every attempt to actually materialize their dreams and ambitions thwarted. Yet in spite of all of this, it has been seven years of hope, courage and thankfulness because our spiritual gain has far outweighed our material losses. Our very attempt at big business and colonization has awakened Negroes everywhere to a consciousness of the mighty powers in them and inoculated them with a racial patriotism which is destined to manifest itself in a united race and a self-governed people. Meeting the Forces of Opposition Our opposition has been strong and our difficulties many. Many things have been done to embarrass and hinder us. Yet we still press on. I need not discuss here the attempts of enemy forces to destroy our power and influence, for you, yourselves, are well acquainted with and informed on these things. You remember, as well as I our appeal to the League of Nations on behalf of the Negro and Africa which has been ignored. The treatments acts of President King, whose latest has been that of pawning the only spot in Africa Negroes controlled to white interests, are still fresh in our minds. While the surrenders and engagement of Marcus Garvey, who has been taken away from us because of the wicked plots and schemes of jealous, self-booking Negroes working together with misguided, and fearful white, runs heavily upon our souls at this very hour. What the U. M. I. A. Man Suffered You know full well what the Universal Mgm Improvement Association has suffered in its efforts to make the much for a position of prospect and power, but it has been your suffering, but you know what it has cost in polluting, pollution and environmental pollution your part to bring the association up to this point. Ourz has been a thorny path, but we have traveled it with unfaltering step, caring not that our feet are sore and our backs weary. Although the fight has been hard and our sacrifices many, we are not one whit discouraged because they have not been greater than we expected. We know full well the road we have chosen to travel is an uphill one. We expect to be knocked down many times before we succeed in passing the sentries who now stand guard over the fair land of Africa. We have been knocked to our knees a time or two already, but each time we have sprung to our feet again. It is not how many times you are knocked down but how many times do you rise, which counts. Our last blow was taking of Marcuss Garvey. It was our hardest blow. The enemy struck below the belt. It stunned us, it staggered us, but tonight finds us on our feet again, forging on and facing the grim and uncertain future with iron wills and hearts of steel. On this, the eve of our eighth year, we stand with our heads bloody but unbowed; with our spirits heavy but unafraid with sufferings, sacrifices and disappointments behind us; saunta, jeers and criticisms on the right of us, traitor, hypocrisy and self-secursors to the left, while hell lies broad before us; yet determined because truth and justice is on our side and God leads the way. (Applause.) be on the lips of Negroes everywhere as Africa's greatest natriot There is none can take his place. Others may come who will do a great work. Others may come who will accomplish great things for the race and achieve much, in the way of carrying on the program he started, but they will never reach the high place Garvey has carved in Africa's history for himself. He has become the father of his country. He has become the Mogee of his people. He has become the spirted guide and inspiration of his race. As America has but one Washington, Africa will ever have but one Marcus Garvey, (Applause). Why God permits him to suffer we cannot say. Perhaps he is part of his wondrous plush in the fulfillment of the divine prophecy. "Ethiopa shall stretch forth her hands." We can but hope that it is when remembering the words of the poet: "God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform. He plants his footsteps on the sea. And rides upon the storm." Africa Is Awaking In spite of the reverses and setbacks we had during the past year, there has taken place much which has strengthened the organization and tightened its grip on the "World Africa." Because of our untiring efforts, stubborn perseverance and eternal vigilance, we find ourselves nearer the goal of an independent Africa than ever before. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has spoken so loud, our enemies have made so much noise that all Africa is now waking. Ab-del Krim, the greatest African general France has met since Toussaint L'Overture sent her skulking from the little island of Haytai, is now striking the first blow for Africa's freedom. This bold and gigantic attempt has electrified the whole Negro world, while the white world stands agaist at the audacity of this mighty general. It is to be noted that Ab-del Krim is not a naked savage plumed with feathers, directing a band of natives, armed with spears, but, to the contrary, he is a polished-native, educated in the beat military schools of Europe, directing an army well equipped with big guns, poisonous gas and aeroplanes. He represents an African who has drunk deep from the white man's culture and civilization, and yet remained African in thoughts and aspirations. That is, he did not lose his stability to see things from an African's point of view and aspire to those things which would advance the cause of Africans. The effectiveness of his efforts has been felt throughout Europe. The world is at last convinced of the existence of a new and independent spirit among those who. for hundreds of years, have permitted themselves to be oppressed. There was a time when it was easy for white invaders in Africa to use one black tribe to put down the other. That day is passing, for we are informed that from various parts of Africa whole tribes are now offering their services to Krim. The whole of Africa is in a ferment. Africa is tramping, tramping, marshalled music is playing. Marcus Garvey has lit the torch of liberty, independence and nationhood in the black man's breast, and all hell can't blow it out. del Krim's present activities, we can reinforce all of this time that success thus far has attended his efforts. For it is a testimony to the fact the Universal Negro Improvement Association has not labored in vain. As we recount the spiritual gains of the organization we cannot confine ourselves to operations in Africa alone, for after all the effectiveness with which Africa can carry on depends to a large extent upon the support it receives from her brothers in other parts of the world. Let us, therefore, take a glimpse of our spiritual gains in the Western World. New Social Thoughts, and Ideals Everywhere, there is now new racial thoughts and ideals because of our efforts. Negroes both in and out of the organization, both friendly and hostile, see, speak and write from the new point of view, because Garvey lives and the Universal Negro Improvement Association was born. Prior to 1815, when Garvey started the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Negroes said little about Africa, only to tell you that some missionary had departed to the heather land or that another wild cannibal tribe had been discovered. As for the cry: "Africa for the Africans, those at home and abroad," none dared to take this cry until Garvey came, not even our esteemed friend and contemporary, Dr. Dubois, whom we hear cry so dramatically today: "Africa for the Africans." If you doubt me go to any race newspaper or magazine and seek permission to look through their files and read their periodicals or papers published before 1815, and you will find there, few, if any, editorials, or news columns advocating Africa, for Africans, those at home and those abroad. But look in the editorial columns and read the news articles published since Garvey came and the African flavor will make you homesick. Everywhere Negroes are thinking in terms of self determination. Everywhere Negroes are developing a patrolism for Africa and a solidarity within the race which beakes a mighty day for the black man. What Garveyism Has Taught the Nero Garvaryum has taught the Negroes of America that their interests are one, whether they were born in the West Indies, America, Central America, Europe or Africa. Negroes from Barbados no longer feel themselves different from Negroes of Jamaica or Trinidad. Nor do Negroes of Jamaica or Trinidad hold a hostile feeling toward Negroes from Barbados. Negroes in America no longer think themselves something apart from the Africans, or superior to the West Indians or Central Americans. Through the instrumentality of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the untiring efforts of its many exponentes who have traveled to and fro in the world, breaking to Negroes the light, black men everywhere feel and know themselves to be one and the same people. Barbadians now know that the only reason they were born Barbadians and not Jamaicans is that the same slave ship which stopped at Barbados did not stop at Jamaica, etc. Americans now realize that the only reason they happen to be Americans and not West Indians is because the same slave ship which stopped in America did not stop in the West Indies, while Africans now realize that the only reason they are Africans and we of the Western World, West Indians and Americans, etc., is because their fathers were lucky enough to keep out of the way of the slave hunters. The Negro Learns to Love Himself Because the Universal Negro Improvement Association has lived the Negro has learned to love himself. He no longer believes that he must be white in order to be somebody. He loves his own black skin and woolly hair. He years for a culture and civilization all his own. He is no longer content to remain a parasite and bagger. He wants a chance in his own homeland to work out his racial destiny to the dictates of his own conscience. This new life, new thought are these new racial ideals are priceless things for which we are in the past seven years have suffered and paid. if it has sent the rude a billion dollars to bring about this new life and solidarity, the price would have been cheap. calling upon those of us who are connected with the association here in the Western World, and because of the lack of sufficient finance we find ourselves unable to respond. Now, the millions needed is not something that we can pick up in the street, yet it is easily raised if sane business methods and strict economy is practiced. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has the machinery for raising the enormous capital necessary for putting over the work of African redemption. Seven million Negroes are now organized, looking in the same direction, hoping and aspiring to the same ideals. If properly directed there is no reason why we can not be made a financial force and power with which to be reckoned. Establishing a Financial Background With such following as the Universal Negro Improvement Association has we can become the strongest financial institution in the world. With such a program as we have before us, we must establish ourselves financially. If we are to clinch or hold the ground already gained, it is for me, as Acting President General, to state frankly at this time that the future life of our organization depends upon the establishment of a financial background and the placing of the whole organization upon a sound financial basis. We have reached a point where necessary distrates a program of retrenchment if we are to continue carrying on. In the face of our present difficulties, I fail to see how the association can long endure unless each member does his part in our effort to clear the present indebtedness and raise an immediate working capital of at least half a million dollars. The Silent Program We are ready just now to begin the most serious part of the whole program. Heretofore most of our work has been that of propaganda to awaken the masse of our race to the importance and necessity of our program. Beginning with the new year, the real work will be largely carried on through secret missions, embassies, agents and representatives. Our propaganda printed in various African languages will be quietly disseminated throughout the world. We will no longer shout from the platform of Liberty Hall our plans. If representation must be made to the British Government in interest of the Negro, we will no longer announce it to the world. If special information regarding certain portions of Africa is needed or Adel Krim must be conferred with, none will know but those who direct the great program you have entrusted to them. We have now reached the time when our work must be done quietly. Work the nature of which I will not dare mention here. This new method of procedure will call for men and women of nerve, self-control and intelligence. The men and women will be especially prepared through the secret organizations established at the last convention known as Sons and Daughters of Ethiopia. Now the Universal Negro Improvement Association has no initiation, signs or grips. Any Negro with a drop of Negro blood may join, but not so with the secret organizations which we are this year launching. The Sons and Daughters of Ethiopia have their signs, grips and pass words. Those who engage in this work must be true and tried. They must pass through the fire, he branded and have their tongues sealed. Work Ahead Needs Preparation Work Ahead Needs Preparation The work we have now before us calls for much intelligence, and therefore much preparation. It not only calls for intelligence, but much money, for in the redemption of Africa we today must compete with the minds of the greatest nations in the world; nations which are now spending millions, in Africa, with the thought of making themselves permanent. They have no intention nor will they pack up, turn Africa over to black folks and walk out simply, because we agitate and plead for Africa. They themselves are working hard and laying out much to make of Africa a white man's country. Realising Mr. Garvey well describes that the world is growing no bigger, but remaking the same also, while the population is increasing at a rapid rate and that the time will come when there will not be bread enough for all, which means that only strong faces will live and enjoy while the weak ones die and become slaves, the white world is prepared to give and Genuine BAYER are giving their very lives that they might, make of Africa a white man's country and hand down to their children a greater legacy than that given to the inhabitants of this fair land by the Pilgrim Fathers. Frenchmen today are dying to keep Africa under white control, and if the fight proverse more than the French can handle, Englishmen will die willingly side by side with the French. We have not started out for something nobody wants. Africa is the prize of the world and if it is over to be controlled by Africans, they must build a force and develop a power greater than Europe can resist. This the Negro can do if he proceeds along the proper lines. To say that it can't be done is to talk folly, for all things are possible for a people that is determined to be free. Hitory records more than one instance where a people, with the odds against them, but fired with the spirit of liberty and freedom, have charged both death and hell—and accomplished the seemingly impossible. If the Negro will but buy himself, all that we dream, hope and work for will be realized, but we must work hard and fast. At the rapid rate Europe is travelling in Africa, the next 25 years will decide the fate of Africa for another thousand years. What that fate will be, we must answer now. Shall it be that of economic slavery and mongrelization or of political and economic independence and racial purity? Shall our children enjoy the freedom and independence of men or be subjected to the same damnable system we now find ourselves living under. The answer to these questions must be made by the Negro in the next twenty-five years or he is doomed. The responsibility rests largely with us. There is no time to lose. While millions in Africa are awake, there are many more millions still asleep. Our program has not touched the fringe of Africa's garment, so to speak. Millions who cannot speak or read any other than their native language must be reached. Our literature and propaganda must be translated in the context tribal languages of Africa, and many other methods must be inaugurated of which it will not be politic here to speak. The day or work and real workers are at hand. The sacrifices you have made and money you have given is nothing in comparison with what you must now make and give. For the putting over of this program we must now lay plans for the raising of millions. How and where are we to get these millions? In what way must we begin? It is these questions I will try briefly to answer. For seven years our only source of revenue has been contributions from your pocket books. You have given whatever you could, whenever you could, that the work might go on and the propaganda of Garveyism be disseminated. Some of you have made so many financial sacrifices that you now begin to feel that your duty is about done. But not so. Your work will not be done until the program is completed. To put over the program ahead may mean that not only you but the generation to follow may have to continue sacrificing and giving as you are now doing. For over a hundred years my race has been giving to the church in order that the gospel might be carried throughout the world and man made better. Surely you are not tired after only seven years of giving to the Universal Negro Improvement Association, that the gospel of racial co-operation and freedom might be carried throughout the world and Africa be redeemed. During the coming year you must not only continue to give but the amount of your contributions must be impressed for where it took one dollar to carry on in the past, it takes ten dollars now. Giving alone, however, will not supply the financial needs of the association's program. Institutions are to be built industries established, research work must be done, all of which calls for money and more money. When Garvey sends from Atlanta with his bigger program it will take a bigger and stronger organization, to put it even. I feel that our first duty, therefore, is to build in Garvey's absence an institution strong enough financially to support the bigger program he will bring with him and carry out the tremendous programs we already have. son that he started the establishment of business and industry. It is that he has preached a thousand times from this platform. But Garvey could not and cannot in the future do these things without the use of men experienced in these special lines of business, possessed with honesty of purpose and backed up with money. To do these things the organization must have at its disposal business brains and money, and the race at this time is short, both. We might as well face the facts now that we may prepare for the future. It is impossible for the Universal Negro Improvement Association, opposed on every hand, to conduct big business enterprises and industries without having proper credit and revenue, and men of experience in each particular line. In the ordinary business world where concerns are faced with ordinary composition, these things are absolutely necessary. It has been the sad and bitter experience of the organization in the past few months to meet with this opposition. With every opposition imaginable, both In and out of the race, with the added difficulty of doing business in the midst of hostile white environment, plus the lack of business friends, it is not only necessary but absolutely imperative that we insure the success of our ventures by entering at this particular time into business on a very small scale and engaging in those lines of business where there is least business risk. If we had the hearty cooperation of banks, insurance companies and friends high in the financial world, perhaps we could venture out in big industry and business with limited money and experience, trusting to the good will of those to come to our place in times of distress and need, but this we have not. which means that upon you, whose earning capacities are small and limited, we can only at the present time depend for the financing of our business ventures. If we had a fixed revenue and collateral from which we could realize thousands PROVE A MIRAC TO ME Says a French Athlete Triangle Laboratories, Inc. 1303 Baltimore Ave. New York Gentleman: About the middle of February I was seised with double pneumonia, lowering my voice.

MOROCCO IS SEEN AS EUROPE'S DANGER SPOT British Politician Hits White Exploitation of Darker Peoplees The Moors May Be Defeated, but Seed of Future Wars Being Sown By ARTHUR PONSONBY, M. P. Ex Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs in the London London News (That little wars, such as that in progress between the French and Spaniards and the Rift in Morocco, may lead to serious international quarrels is pointed out by Mr. Arthur Ponsonby.) There 'must have been been' invented in which there was no war in the world. We call it peace when there is the first class war commanding the attention of the nation. But in these intervals of so-called 'peace' minor wars are proceeding all the time, and now that armaments are cheaper and more deadly they are likely to occur with greater frequency. At this moment the warfare in Morocco is not showing any signs of relaxing. The trouble about these small wars is that while they are the result of previous wars they very often become the cause of future wars. Morocco is a dangerous corner of the world. If the various threads of the rope which eliminated in the Great War were detached and analyzed, one of the largest strands could be traced back to trouble in Morocco in the early years of this century. The Western European Powers have an incomprehable habit of "protecting" the wilder and less developed peoples of the earth. This protection leads to exploitation, exploitation to spheres of influence, spheres of influence to partition, partition to domination, and so on, until the poor, unfortunate people find themselves bound hand and foot under some allen rule. Excuses can always be found; rails followed by punitive expeditions become the pretext for the dispatch of troops and ships, and the unfortunate tribe or nation can always be shown up to be in the wrong, and there is no one to put the other side of the story. As matter stand Spain, which has long been one of the worst governed nations in the world, in the confusion and chaos of political complications at home, took refuge in autocracy on the Fascist plan. This autocrat, rather a second rate, specimen of the type, thought he might make a popular distraction by a campain in Morocco. Easy enough to cause a cause of quarrel in acquiring some tribe of a breach of something. But the Spaniards made a hopeless mess of the campain from start to finish. The Moors' Demand The Rifh, who are now fighting both Spain and France, far from being the scum of the earth, are a very fine people, led by a very remarkable man, Abd-al-Krime. With the combined struggles of two European nations against him he holds his own. He is unreasonable enough to ask that he should be allowed to govern his own coastal region independently and without interference. France was drawn in because Abdel-el-Krim invaded the French zone. He no doubt fails to understand why there should be any French zone of Spanish zone. He probably holds the doctrine which I believe in that Moors, Barbers, Arabs, etc. should be allowed to govern their own territories as well or as badly as they like. It is an argument which no European government will tolerate for a moment, so they fight Abdel-el-Krim, and at the same time, mark you, they supply him with arms and munitions with which to kill their own men—just as we supplied the Turks with the guns that massacred our fellow countrymen at Gallipoli. The French had a remarkable general on the spot in Morocco, General Layute, but the situation has proved too much for him, and they have now sent General Naulni. French opinion is beginning to be resive at this senseless expenditure of money and lives. Welcome into the picture because of the International zone of Tangier, in defense of which we have certain responsibilities. But even this government do not seem inclined to get involved in what may develop, into a very ticklish situation. However, we must never forget that war brings great to the mill of some people, and they are not particular where the war is, whether in China, or Russia, or Morocco, so long as there is war somewhere. Hawaii an Interracial Experiment Station NEW York—'Hawaii is not a land of hulu hulu dances, grass skirts, and ukuleles," writes Dr. Albert W. Palmer in his book, "The Human Side of Hawaii." "Rather," says the author, "Hawaii is America's and the world's experiment station in interracial relationships." The sugar industry has changed Hawaii from a simple Polyphene paradise into a soothing interracial pot. All the racial groups have been invited. From a population of 4,499 in 1873, the total had grown to 8,130, of whom 51 percent are Japanese. It is an integral part of the island history, and the greatest single stage of Hawaii in the American civilization has certainly the oldest human demons by virtue of its location in the American mainland. "Onward Toward Nationhood" Slogan of Negroes of the World LONDON, Aug. 4.—The political fate of India hangs in the balance today. Everything depends on how India accepts the proposals being carried there by Viceroy Lord Reading, who is en route to his post after conferences with the officials in London. It is believed that Lord Birkenhead's speech in the house of lords recently regarding the Indian situation was extremely cautious because he did not know the attitude of the Swarajit party after the death of its leader, C. R. Das. Gandhi Prepares for Struggle A meeting of the general council of the *Swarajj party* held in Calcutta elected Pundit Motilal Neuru unanimously the successor of Mr. Das. The council fully andorsed Mr. Das' offer of cooperation with Great Britain, but was "frankly dissatisfied" with Lord Birkenhead's speech and the lack of British response to Mr. Das' friendly gestures. The council announced its continuation of the *Swarajj* policy of of dollars when pressed, we could then venture on the sea of business with our institution in order to take care of itself af any crucial point. Example of the Ship To give you an example, I need only to call your attention, to the serious position in which we find ourselves at this very hour. Our ship now stands in a very precarious position. Fifteen thousand dollars is needed, to save it. Where to get the fifteen thousand Wall Street is betting money we lose the ship, hence its influence is being used to keep money lenders from assisting us. Nobody in New York will lend the Company $15,000 to save $15,000 of the people's money. Those who are opposed to our program are taking advantage of our inability to lend immediate cash to force us out of the shipping world. But why should we be at the mercy of those who oppose us? We are at their mercy and stand chances of suffering an enormous loss because our enemies will not lend the money and you who love Garvey and the race have nothing to give to save Garvey's work and help the race. But suppose the Association had a fixed revenue coming in from some income-producing, source, we could not only save ourselves of such embarrassments as this and possible loss, but would have reserve to draw upon with which to fight keen competition and prejudice that easily defeats the business with limited capital. We must have mills, factories and ships, for these are necessary, absolutely necessary in the working out of our program, but to have those things we must first make sure and sound the financial foundation of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Before we can operate successfully a chain of stores we must run one grocery successfully. Before we can establish a steamship line, we must make a schooner pay. In other words, before we invest large sums of money and place men in charge of gigantic industrial schemes and projects they must demonstrate their ability to spend wisely small amounts of money and make a small business pay. My friends, you will pardon me tonight if I speak to you the truth as I feel and see it. But something urges me to speak as I feel. Too frequently those of us who lead permit our mouths to utter only those things which makes them shout and arouses their enthusiasm to no purpose whatsoever, only to eventually be found out and laughed into oblivion. I could paint for you tonight the hillops of Africa and replant the red, black and green which many an orator has already planted from this platform. But I speak thus to you because I am interested in the life and permanency of this great organization. I am measuring the ability of this movement to be felt ten, twenty or fifty years from now. I speak thus to you because I seem to have seen the light for a moment and wish to unburden myself while the inspiration lasts. I fear that if the Universal Negro Improvement Association attempts to face the future without a sound financial foundation; suffering repeated failures of its business ventures, we will lose forever the great opportunity which is now ours. I do not want to see one Negro in this organisation lose one dollar of the money he ever invested in anything the Universal Negro Improvement Association ever started. I want to see every Black Star Lift stock certificate, construction note, death claim or other objection of the company paid, instead of our having to borrow money from the government forever. I want the Association to repaint the place where it once sold members to those of us who are now in need of money but have not been able to find it from the very beginning of the organization. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1989 I have to return heartfelt thanks for the many expressions of loyalty and appreciation which have reached me from the earners of the earth on the occasion of the opening of the local conventions on August 1. By telegram, cable and letter, divisions of the U.N. I. A., friends and followers have conveyed to me their sympathy for the humiliation and persecution I have been compelled to undergo and have reiterated their wholehearted adherence to the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which I have the honor to be founder and President-General. It is a great comfort to me to know that the passage of time serves only to increase the enthusiasm of members for the cause, and to strengthen their conviction in my honesty and integrity. To the many well-wishers of every race who have sent me messages of encouragement I return special thanks and trust that they will assist the Association, as far as lies in their power, in the prosecution of its program and the attainment of its goal. With best wishes and a hope sincere for the speedy success of the cause. opposition to Great Britain. The Swarajists are prepared to revise their opposition policy if Lord Reading's proposals are satisfactory, but meanwhile, Mahatma Gandhi and Mr. Neuru are determined to carry out a program of strict non-co-operation, including mass civil disobedience and non-payment of taxes on one hand, and absolute opposition in the councils. Guard Nationhood Logan of Negroes (Continued from page 2) those of us who lead do not misdirect and dissipate your energies. It is, therefore, my duty as one of your leaders to warn you of the dangers facing this our great organization that its future may be safeguarded and made permanent. If we fall at this time to build sure and secure, our ability to bring about African redemption will be very limited indeed. What Must Now...Be Done. Therefore, having thought seriously of our organization, its future and our possible means of reaching in the world the high place for which we strive, I return from Central America to place before you that part of our program which must be worked out that we may have sufficient revenue and lay proper economic foundation for the carrying out of the most important and serious part of our program. Let me say again for emphasis that the Universal Negro Improvement Association's greatest need at this time is money. Our program is greatly hindered because we lack the necessary finance. We have the plans. They have been drawn by that great designer and architect, Marcus Garvey. But our crying need is money to carry them through. We can not go on forever making loan after loan and depending only on the dimes and dollars of you whose means are limited. Schools are to be founded and established, mills and factories built, mines opened up, research work done, steamship lines operated, missionaries and agents armed with the propaganda of the Universal Negro Improvement Association dispatched, to all parts of the world, literature revised and translated and much other work which it is not politic for me to mention from this platform, must be done for the hastening of Africa's redemption. All of this calls for not thousands, but millions. We must now begin laying the foundation for a wealthy institution. I see no quicker nor surer way for a race limited in both business intelligence, experience and financial outcome than the acquisition of lands. I see no quicker and more certain way to establish a definite and certain revenue for fostering the work of this great movement than the ownership by the GET MORE PFD This Wonderful German Preparation will positively restore your Lost Nature and Vitality You will feel twenty years younger after taking this Regimenting Remedy.

Reports from other parts of India strengthen the hand of the nationalists. The two sections of the left wing have united. organization of income-producing real estate. That the permanency of this organization may be established and the cause of Africa go forward, our organization should secure in the West Indies, Central America and America land and property owned and controlled by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Every Division's Duty Every Division should own its Liberty Hall and, the members should be buying groceries from their own grocery store, meat from their own butchery shop, paying rent in apartments or raising bananas on plantations owned by the Association. This would mean that instead of depending upon collections, the Association would have hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue from business enterprises and rentals coming in monthly. This would enable the Association to produce and develop those business minds, which are to handle the mills and factories or operate the ships we must eventually have. This would enable the Association to accumulate the necessary capital for carrying on its gigantic industries of the future. This would place the Association in a position to be of assistance to those of you who have and are doing much that we might carry on. In this way we would be having a firm economic basis for the operation of steamship lines and anything else we desired. I feel that we would engage ourselves in no sooner and more profitable endeavor than that of each Division buying and playing for a Liberty Hall first and then acquiring other property or engaging locally in profitable business. Each Division in the West Indies and Central America should own its own Liberty Hall and its own banana, cocoa, coffee or sugar plantations where its members work. Each Division in the States should own its own Liberty Hall and the apartments in which its members live. You talk about operating ships. If the Divisions in the Islands and Central America owned their own plantations, we would be dependent only upon ourselves for business, for our ships. Members working or their own plantations receiving better wages would be more able financially to support their program. If members rented from their local divisions, if would mean thousands in revenue monthly to the work of their local Divisions. Why, if just the members of Liberty Hall alone lived in apartments owned by the New York Local paying rent to their Association, not only would they get cheaper rents, but the Local would be independent and able to assist Headquarters at any time because of a revenue of thousands monthly. If We Only Realize Think with me for a moment. The New York Local has a book-membership of several thousands. While I know there are more, but for the sake of argument, let us say that there are three thousand families in the Local. The average number in a family is about three. A family of three in New York uses a three or four room apartment. Four room apartments cost on an average of about $50 per month. We, therefore, have here in New York alone about three thousand families, who are paying each month on an average of $150,000 in rent to somebody else. Suppose the New York Local owned the apartment houses in which our members live. Right here in New York alone our monthly income would be $150,000 and our yearly income nearly two million. Suppose the Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and all of our Division large enough to warrant it, owned the facts and apartments in which the members lived, our revenue would be many millions annually, while our wealth would run far into the billions. And remember, I have not attempted to estimate nor take into consideration what our added income would be if I had millions owned and appended the equally large, most machines from which the members buy.

Even a child can see the great opportunity the Universal Negro Improvement Association has in hands. With this established source of revenue we can tackle the job of colonization, opening mines, establishing institutions, organizing steamship lines, because our economic foundation and background will be sufficiently strong to protect and support these things in the face of opposition. We will have a weapon that will enable us to wage a fight for Africa never dreamed of. On Redeeming.. Africa If we mean business when we talk of African redemption, we must place ourselves in position to do business. After all, how is Africa to be redeemed? To relieve Africa the native must be educated, industrial enterprises must be built up there and wherever; else Negroes live. Priquanda through literature and agents must be disseminated throughout Africa. World sentiment must be created among other colored races in favor of our cause while much other special work must be done. To do these things calls for millions. To secure large income-producing property holdings from which we can derive a regular revenue is 'the surest and safest way for the Negro who is limited in both capital and business knowledge to secure these millions. Beginning in this way we will in the near future engage in every line of human endeavor. I am proud to state that Liberty Hall will lead off this year in this great effort. The plans have already been secured. Soon we will tear down this temporary structure and begin to build. Here will be the Mecca, of Negrodrom. Every member should put his or her shoulders to the wheel now. We are pacing through our darkest hour which is but the stalem for our day! Let every division begin to make itself felt legally. Become a part of your community that every Negro will be brought into your fold. Make your political unions powers with a wish to reckon, for their work will be tremendous the incoming year.

Let this be the slogan which shall inspire us. To those who stop to criticise about "Onward toward nationhood." To those who seem to grow tired, cry "Onward toward nationhood." The Objective Nationhood is our main objective. All that has been advocated here tonight is simply ways and means of reaching this objective. Remember, that the Universal Negro Improvement Association stands today where it has always stood, for a free and redeemed Africa, for Africans, those at home and those abroad. There is no turning back from not going around this objective. It is foolish for Negroes of this day to laugh lightly at African Redemption and minimize the part each Negro, especially of the Western World, must play in this redemption. The new Negro is truly on the scene. He is awake, not to sleep and more unless it is under his own vine and big tree. He hears the world today crying for freedom and self-determination. Liberty and independence is in the air. Black men everywhere are begging for it. Black men everywhere are working for it. Black men everywhere are preparing to die for it. Negroes are demanding an exodus out of the old order of things into a new order which calls for a great Negro State. Hence, we must save Africa for ourselves and our children. The redemption of Africa is a necessity. The ambition of black men requires it. The propagation of the race model in our industrial and commercial expansion calls for it. The awakening of new thought and genius demands it. The development of racial instincts and ideal instincts upon it. The damnable position of the Negro in world order of things today necessitates a mighty and powerful African republic. We have no desire to deviate one lota from our main objective, African Redemption. It would be a crime against generations unborn should we fail at this appropriate time to preserve our claim against the world. We shall, we must go forward. Paying the Price But I say against if we are to successfully pay the price of such a gigantic program, we must begin now, placing the organization in position to pay. Liberty Hall must lead the way. We must have upon this spot a magnificent Liberty Hall. We must make it possible for every member to rent from his association and a Liberty Hall goes, so will the 600 divisions of the association go. And while we are doing this, we will quietly send our representives news, papers, and programs into Africa, thereby educating the natives, with Germanism until the time comes for us to act in other directions. We will protect our secret societies, which were established in our last convention for the purpose of doing special work along the lines of African Refinement. We will use our political unions in the West Indies, to fight the immediate cause of the West Indian Negroes. We will use our political in America to fight the immediate cause of the Negro fight in America while the political unions of South Africa, Liberia, Sierra Leone, French Colonial Africa, Gold Coast and so on fight their immediate causes there. But under the banners of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Negro will make a united fight for Negroes everywhere. We have before us the greatest program the race has kept. Garvey has given us an ideal and set a goal, the glory of which is yet to unfold before the world in resplendent colors and write the name of the black race high above all. "For having given us this ideal he touches tonight, yet in his sufferings Negroes are glorified. It is our duty to preserve the ideals he gave us and advance the cause he so nobly sponsored. Feeling keenly this duty, I have laid down tonight a line of procedure which will make of us an independent and permanent organisation. Let each and every one of us tonight renew our vows, gird our loins about us and prepare to fight as we have never fought before. Let us remember that the future of a race is at stake. We will not falter. We will not harry but we must press on to the mark of the high calling. Trusting that, the God of us all will continue to lead and direct the destiny of this great organization; I bid you good night.

D, 142 West 129th St. NEW YORK CITY e who glories in his toughness, and there are some such, is fit only for the police and the prison. Rena Maran, the distinguished French Negro author, who has served much in the French civil service in Africa, and whose novel dealing with French colonial treatment of the natives won him the coveted prize in a high French literary society, and who was educated and has lived most of his life in France, in a recent article, has the following to say of the French feeling towards the Negro which will be of general interest to the readers of The Negro World, and help them to look somewhat inside the French character: In France, to be sure, they tolerate everything, or it would be better to say that they wish to give the appearance of tolerating everything. But the fact is that they cherish the same prejudices here as elsewhere. Neither a person nor an event may escape criticism. Here they cherish respect for money, they adore it; but not the one who dispenses the money. They make a fine show of their principles, but these noble sentiments of theirs which are on display only catch fools. That is the reason why it is all vain and foolish, their pretense of being just to the black map, because they do not like him. Really, here in France he is doubly a stranger, first because he is black, and second, because he is a native of another land. The eloquent orations about our colored brothers are nothing in the world but flowers of rhetoric. In addition, they are faded flowers, which long ago lost their perfume. Once in a while, for popularity's sake, they take them out, give them a little display in the fresh air. After that—because they are merely artificial anyway—as soon as they have utilized them in their usual way, they pack them safely away in a place of storage where they keep their other useless objects—such as justice, liberty, right, and a lot of cheap claptrap which civilized nations have long been in the habit of using for advertising purposes, especially in the moment when they happen to be preparing, or at the moment they are perpetrating some unique piece of infamy. The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. This is a very raw statement of the case, and we confess that we are somewhat taken aback by it. We got some satisfaction out of the feeling that the French were a shade better than the other whites of Europe in their contact and treatment of black folk. Rene Maran has spoken and he has dispelled our feeling by his rather blunt and trite statement of the case. Perhaps the white races have all come to look down upon and despise black folk, which was not true in the days of the Ancients, because the black folk among the ancients had powerful nations of their own and were a cultured and wealthy people. The disposition of mankind is to respect those who are wise and strong and wealthy enough to make them do so. The poor and ignorant and weak have little respect of of and no defense against the prejudices of those who are on top, those who imagine they "are better than other people." There is but one way to change all this. Make the most of and dominate your own social, civil and economic values, as others do, and you will have respect of them. The Universal Negro Improvement Association teaches this philosophy and those who adopt it and live up to it are on the road to success. MR. GARVEY AND WHITE AMERICAN SOCIETY A MOVEMENT has been started in Virginia, with headquarters in Richmond, which appears to have more than one name, such as the White American Society, the Anglo-Saxon Clubs, and the like, whose purpose it is to segregate and drive the Negro out of American life, whether he wants to be driven out or not. The contention is that the Negro has no future in the United States, that he should not have contact, or association with white people in any of the thought or effort of the nation. "Race purity," is the slogan which the Anglo-Saxon Clubs has adopted. Under this heading they would make a pariah of the American Negro and drive him out of the country, whether he wants to be driven out or not. That is to say, Messrs. Powell and Cox have set up a color bar in this country as the white scalawags have set up one in Africa. They expect that self-respecting citizens will subscribe to their basic principle and all of the infamous propaganda stuff with which it is being backed up, and in that they show that they do not know the Negro whom they desire to make a pariah of with the Negro's sympathy and support. YOU CAN'T GET SOMETHING FOR NOTHING GREAT many people live by their wits. Those who know them and live in their neighborhoods are ignorant of the ways such people employ to make ends meet and often to present a brave front. They have no visible means of support, but they are mixed up in most of the social and civic movements of the time and place and always appear to have plenty of money. That is one sort. We all know some of them and marvel at the good fortune which appears to hedge about them. If we knew how they manage to do it we should not envy them. They make up one sort. There are other sorts, the chronic loafers and criminals who prey on society and get away with it for a season, but the police get them in the end. They are what we may call social parasites. The Negro race has a great many more of them than it needs and than are good for it. They ought to grow fewer, but they appear to increase, especially in large centers, like New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Chicago, and the like. Mr. Powell of the Anglo-Saxon Clubs recently saw Mr. Garvey in Atlanta and has been using the visit as a club with which to smash the Negro head. He claims that Mr. Garvey assured him that he "the fullest support of his organization." Mr. Garvey tells us that the extent of his assurance is that he believes in the doctrine of "race purity" and "Africa for the Africans." The Norfolk Journal and Guide has been giving much space to its Richmond correspondent in playing up the alleged alliance of Mr. Garvey with Powell and Cox. Mr. Cox has written a pamphlet, headed, "Let My People Go," and dedicated it to Mr. Garvey, but there is nothing in it that Mr. Garvey can subscribe to except the principle of "race purity" and "Africa for the Africans." All the propaganda to rule the Negro out of his citizenship and American life is foreign to the main purpose and Mr. Garvey could not subscribe to it without abnegating his common sense, which none of us can conceive of him. Social parasites are dangerous. If there are too many of them they destroy the healthy bodies with which they come in contact and upon which they pray. Every race has plenty of them, showing in that way that "one touch of nature makes the whole world kin." They add nothing to the productive wealth and happiness of the community, but are a source of constant trouble and anxiety to their neighbors. We reproduce in another column of this page of The Negro World today an article by Mr. Cox, from the Norfolk Journal and Guide, headed, "Mr. Garvey has no alliance with the Anglo-Saxon Clubs," which will be read with interest and will show conclusively that Mr. Garvey has not committed the Universal Negro Improvement Association to the vile propaganda of race strife and ostracism in this country as has been alleged, in which Messrs. Cox and Powell are very actively engaged. As a matter of fact, we can't get anything for nothing. Nature may owe us all a living, proper clothing and a place to sleep, but unless we hustle for these as the ordinary animal does we shall not have them. The less we have the less respect we have of ourselves and of our fellows; the more we have the more respect we have of ourselves and of our fellows. It is the way of the world. We can't have much learning without hard and continuous study, late and early; we can't have much wealth unless we work hard and save much as we work and plan how to make a dollar earn a dollar as we labored to earn the dollar. The Jew learns this lesson in childhood and practices all the days of his life. The average white man knows how to work and save, and there is nothing but want and disappointment in working hard and saving nothing. The Negro has to learn this lesson. He has to learn to save something so that he may want something, and to do this he cannot deny everything he wants nor go everywhere he wants to go; he must deny himself many things in order to have some things, and he is not generally disposed to do this. He is rather disposed to spend as he goes and go as he spends. Anyone can see the end of such a person. All Negroes, "born or naturalized, are citizens of the United States and of the States in which they reside," according to the National Constitution, and are entitled to all of "the privileges and immunities" enjoyed by other racial groups of the citizenship, and they resent any propaganda which would negative their citizenship and make them pariahs in the land, unfit to enjoy the benefits of citizenship with white people, or alleged white-people, which inhere in our system of government: Mr. Garvey does not stand for anything that would degrade the Negro in his manhood or citizenship, and the White America Society, the Anglo-Saxon Clubs and the Ku Klux Klan stand for nothing, in the last analysis, that would recognize the manhood and citizenship of the American Negro in law. They simply use the "race purity" and "Africa for the African" terms to drive the American Negro out of his social, civil and economic rights, and we are against them because they are against us, and we protest that they have no authority to use Mr. Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association to further their infamous propaganda of isolation and degradation of the Negro in American life. The Universal Negro Improvement Association seeks to teach its members to make the most of their social, civil and economic values for themselves and not for others, as in that way only can the race become self-respecting and self-supporting. If we are poor and ignorant we are just as well off in New York or Kingston as we would be in Free Town or Johannesburg, in Africa. We have more poverty and ignorance everywhere than we need or is good for us, and we must continue to get rid of it. It is the duty of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to blaze the way for others to the higher and better things of living. That is understood. President General Marcus Garvey has been preaching this doctrine from the beginning of the organization. He is preaching it now. Let us practice more and more in our living the preachment, for it is good. The American Negro will go to Africa when he gets to it, and he will go when he does of his own free will, and he will not be driven to do it because a bunch of race-hatting white busybodies insist that he do so. That is the long and short of it. FRENCH LOVE FOR THE NEGRO, AS RENE MARAN SEES IT WE have been fed up on the superior colonial policies of France over those of other European countries in dealing with the natives of Africa, whom they have overlordship in such a way and so persistently, as to lead us to regard the natives as in some sort different from the other whites of Europe. Europe in Morocco in which the French are having the time of their Education of Parents Urged at Edinburgh Mrs. Howard N. Gomez, president of the Child Study Association of America, Inc., addressed the World Parliament on Education in Philadelphia, South Africa on the importance of parents' involvement in their children's education. The death of Georges Sylvain. President of the Patriotic Union of Hayti and leader in the effort to rid Hayti of the American military occupation, was announced yesterday, in a cable received by the Nation, a weekly publication, from J.-Jolibols, editor of the Sylvain, of Port-au-Prince Hayti, according to the Associated Press. Sylvain, who before the war was Hayti Minister to France and to the Vatican, organized the Patriotic Union in 1920 for the purpose of arousing opinion against the Hayti occupation and the activities of American marines there. Sylvain were sent from Hayti to the United States in 1921 and 1922 and a Senate committee insisted Hayti" in 1922, largely through the insistence of his organization. President-General Garvey Not in Alliance with the White American Society (From the Norfolk Journal and Guide) Major Ernest Sevier Obs. of Richmond, who was mentioned in this paper recently as being a "discipline of Marcus Garvey," sends the following letter to the Journal and Guide: I am sure that some of your readers will appreciate a statement, from me, regarding my relation to the activities in your last issue, where my name was mentioned. "My membership in organization is confined to the American Legion, Officers, Reserve Corps, Virginia Welfare Club, and the White America Society. The latter organization up to date has been functioning as a publishing a-tenture, but at a later date will undertake wider activities. "If Marcus Garvey has an alliance with a white organization I am not aware of it. Possibly the Alliance in "Let My People Go," has caused a misunderstanding. The alliance is merely a working understanding between the whites who wish to keep the white and the blacks who wish to keep the blacks ideals. However, these ideals are opposed by some whites and some blacks. "Garvey is in full support of these ideals, and I am in full support of these ideals. Both Garvey and myself make it very clear that we favor the integrity of the two races. Those who oppose these ideals do not speak with the frankness of those who support them. Garvey is fighting for the Negro, and myself, in fighting for the white, have a strong sense of honorably in the open and not seek by any form of subterfuge to avoid the issues which confront us." The "Let My People Go." referred to by Major Cox, is a booklet which he has published and dedicated to Marcus Garvey, whom he designates as a "martyr for the independence and integrity of the Negro race." In this booklet, Major Cox makes an appeal to Negroes to rally to Garvey, and hold arrays the black Negro against the mulattoes or "mongrels" as he calls them. This is a sample paragraph: "I heard your leader, Marcus Garvey, in Richmond, some months ago, before him. He spoke ably as a Negro to Negroes. From time to time he stated views with which I did not agree, for I am a white man. But I agree with the great purpose which inspires him, and which caused him to become a prisoner." Talked with Garvey Garvey's alliance with the Anglo-Saxon Clubs' movement, with which Major Cox is intimately associated, was revealed in a recent letter to John Powell, his conferee, to the principal of a Negro college which is drawing the fire of the Cox-Powell group. The letter said; "I can assure you of the cordial support of the U. N. I. A. When recently in Atlanta, I discussed the affair with Marcus Garvey". Unrest and Negro Education He who reads the sign of the times knows that the main reason for the unrest in the leading Negro colleges of the country is due to a certain race consciousness which has made the Negro feel that he should have members of his own race at the head of his own institutions. He observes from his new onlook upon life and affairs that one does not ever hear of a colored man being elected as head of an institution primarily for whites, and in very few instances does he see a colored man as professor or instructor in an institution where whites predominate. All these things have set him thinking and now he is exposed with the one thought that he should at least have the privilege of being led by his own institutions by his own. Whether this is a proper attitude is not the question with him. One fundamental thing he feels and finds in that is a belief, more owed to lead, must be of the last. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS You know the old ghost story which is "hunted, by these words 'I Float.' There is a kidney condition which makes a patient just about as nervous as the lifters so that story become. This condition is commonly required to as "floating kidney," and a good description, it is, too, for when that little organ gets its improvements all stretched out it says into the spaces about it and acts as a tumor in the "abdomen." More women than men have this condition and tight corsets were once cursed by all the doctors and the vices which made a potent factor in its causation. By the walls after, many children have been born is probably a frequent cause, too. Large tumors in the abdomen may drag the tissues and allow them to become relaxed. Extreme-thinness with a lack of the normal "buttress" of fat about the kidney may have something to-do with its venturing away from its ordinary haven. A moveable kidney may be directly or indirectly responsible for many saliva, some, indigestion, excessive nervousness, mental depression, and change in disposition. There is no pain, or there may be a dull dragging sensation or sharp stabbing pain. It is not always in the region of the kidney. The nervousness may be caused by the dragging pain or it may be produced by the knowledge that the condition of "floating kidney" exists. Just why the thought of it should produce such mental disturbance I do not know. After, all there may be no symptoms from the condition and there may never be any untoward result and if there is likely to be such, the kidney can be anchored again by the surgeon. Nevertheless, it seems to be true and it is just as well that the patient herself does not know about the situation. The doctor may not tell the patient about it in order to spare her from worry and unhappiness, both of which are unnecessary. Seeing Red Very few people would be so silly as to ignore a warning—a red warning—such as the appearance of blood in the urine. Perhaps it is well that most people dislike the "sight of blood" and are immediately frightened about it. Not that foolish fears are condoned, but that they matter usually DO something about them and that is the important thing when it comes to preventing definite disease on all health or perhaps something "more final." What are some of the conditions which produce this sign? The passing of a stone from the kidneys or the ureter or the bladder is an obvious cause of scratching, or cutting of the delicate tissues and appearance of blood. Tumors of any of these structures may be the cause, or tuberculosis of the kidney or the bladder. In inflammation of the kidney or an inflection of the bladder called "cystitis" may be accompanied by this sign. Diseases changing the blood itself such as anemia or anemia of the bladder be the primary cause. Enlarged prostate, gonorrhea, some drugs, are not without responsibility at times. Dark brownish red, or almost black urine should be examined for blood brought about perhaps by septicemia, malaria or some other germ disease, a special kind of jaundice, chemical substances found in some medicines or by If it were the alleged crime that caused a lynching, there would be more white men lynched than colored, because the white people commit more crimes according to their population than do the colored. This is true of every category of crime, from the petty offense of shooting craps, to murder in the first degree. But rarely, very rarely, is a white man lynched. Therefore, it is readily seen that it is not the crime that is committed, but an opportunity for the mob spirit to work with impunity—St. Louis Argus. The heart of the Negro is tender, sensitive to suffering, sympathetic; pulses with pity at the story of affliction; touched, it opens the fountain of tears, the intimacy of friendship, unites the purse. If there are a people more tender hearted, we know not where they are. As the race grows older may its heart remain sensitive to the woes of others, sympathetic, kind, generous—Louisville Leader. God may not have made man out of a monkey—but many a man makes a monkey out of himself—San Diego Ledger. When things look darkest and clouds break on the horizon the fighting man puts behind him all the riddles days over water the dam; he fabrics the rising sun with a smile of welcome as the offer of a new opportunity, a fresh change and if he's right in his heart he will win—Rocky Mountain Voice. People know what they want to work for when they get what they want and find it. When they get what they want and find it, they want what they need they throw it away. Of course. ```markdown ``` Why Are Children Not So Good as They Used to Be? ROUND LAKE, N. T., Aug. 1. "Finding fault with young people is one of the inexusable sins of today," said-D. W. E. J. Gratz, of Chicago, editor of the Epworth Herald, official paper of the Epworth League of the Methodist Episcopal Church, speaking at the Methodist Council here today, Dr. Gratz said in part, "The one question the young people not so good as they used to be?" They never were. "It is scarcely a quarter of a century since the old folks who today are worrying about the younger generation were giving their elders goose-flesh because of 'roiter skates,' high bicycles, bushels and bangs." "Mush of the criticism of the young people is ridiculous and unfair. It must be remembered that they are not responsible for the world igloo which they have been catapulted. Their elders have written and published books that are unfit to be read, and blame the young people for reading. The generation in power is responsible for the questionable amusements, the bad pictures and the low grade of entertainment that is injuring the youth of today. "The unspanked generation is not to be blamed, but the generation that failed to do the spanking. The question, what all our youth? might well be countered with authority, that all our parents? Find the answer to your need. You will be able to answer the neat. Not the dappers of fourteen, fifteen and sixteen, but the happens of forty-one, fifty-one and sixty-one are at fault. "For every student whose name gets into the papers because of scandal in college, I will find ten to 100 arguments who are making the most of their opportunities." Collector Nichols Appoints Negro Stenographer BOSTON, Mass.—On recommendation of William C. Matthews, Malcolm E. Nichols today appointed Miss Irma Pack a stenographer in the Department of Internal Revenue. Miss Pack's appointment was sanctioned by Senator William M. Butler. Miss Pack is a graduate of the Class of 1923 of the Girl's High School. She is a very efficient stenographer, and has been assisting Newman at the Settlement House of St. Mark's Church. She lives at 504 Shawmut Avenue. Mr. Nichols has also appointed Miss Doris Dandridge of Cambridge a place of Mr. Charles H. Shepard, as a clerk. Like Miss Pack, Miss Dandridge is a recent graduate of the Girl's High School. Mr. Charles E. Newman has been promoted to a position of Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue. While two other colored appointees have been assigned to the Warehouse Department. All of these appointees have had the endorsement of Senator William M. Butler. large burns. Syphilis is another cause. Exposure to cold, severe exertion, emotional strain may bring on an attack which is often associated with illness and fever and pain in the back. Aside from the special treatment by the physician who should be called, the "improptu nurse" may win the gratitude of the patient by keeping him warm and frequently giving him hot drinks. The Negro, in few cities of the South, 'get out of public service and expenditures anything like what they put in the public funds, through direct and indirect taxes' and 'fees'. The Negro is not unaware of the fact that he pays not only for what he puts, but also for much that the other fellow is getting. Charleston Messenger. In the event of war, the powers that he hold that race no factor; only citizenship counts. Then, as at no other time, is the American Negro most assuredly a citizen. Then, as at no other time, is he told that he has rights which he must defend and which others must respect. But when bloody conflicts with white men not imminent, his citizenship fades. He is no part to play, no initiative to take in bringing about a state of democracy. We can not prevail upon ourselves if believe that our white 'brothers in war' are so blind that they can not see that unless we are 'brothers in peace', democracy is hampared—Washington Tribune. We are told that our people have made the most wonderful strides in progress and advancement of all people recorded in the annals of history, and the most important that presents itself is: 'Are we sitting ourselves for the maintenance and perpetuity of our position?' Is it not true that, in account of our tendency to mistrust and doubt and pull away from each other, we are weakening our strength and power in any sort of emergency, to defend and expulse the position we have made for ourselves in the body politic. Intelligence and material worth tends to drive against each other, rather than to each other—Newport. News Times. The youth of our group will be given a boat with pride to the sea and a row of our internets soon, and being keen willing to exercise it will be equipped with present equipment to enable them to provide assistance to the qualified growth of the community, and keep them safe and well.

Learn to Do It Yourself To the Editor of The Negro World: The following story was related some time ago. "A magnetic silver-tongued and influential Jewish salesman, approaching a tired and absolutely unconcerned looking Negro taking it easy on an empty box outside a poolroom door, said: "Look here, Sam. Here is the greatest opportunity that will ever come your way. You cannot miss it. I will not allow you to miss it. Here is our catalogue; I am representing one of the largest and highest concerns in this country; it is turning out thousands of these machines per week. It is the latest invention and certainly the greatest, most economic and mystifying contrivance the world has ever seen—a contrivance of happiness. "It means no more work, no more worry, no more need for money; all that is necessary is for you just to imagine what you want and whatever you desire will be presented to you merely by touching this button you see here in the catalogue. "For instance, let me explain; suppose you are out of work, hungry and in want; you have no money and you have a tempting desire for, say, a dish of good fried chicken with fried chips and something to drink; something non-intoxicating, as the machine is arranged so as to keep within the eighteenth amendment; of course, if a machine is bought to be exported to a foreign country, it would be arranged so as to include anything to drink from champagne down to real beer. You just imagine three times, a dish of fried or roast chicken as the case may be, with fried chips, and say, a large bottle of cold soda; then you press the button. This door will be opened and, by means of a small lever on the inside, a dish of fried or roast chicken, accorded to your imagination, with fried chips and a large bottle of cold soda on a tray will be pushed out automatically and presented to you free of all cost. "The terms are very easy and within the reach of every one; the machine is being sold at $1,000 each, but we are only asking you to pay one dollar down and fifty cents a week until the amount is paid. With a deposit of one dollar we will have a machine installed in your own home free of cost. "Think of it," declared the salesman, triumphantly. "One dollar down and your cats and drinks at any time and as many times as you may desire are secured for the rest of your natural life." "I see," said the Negro, who had thoroughly examined the machine illustrated in the catalogue while listening attentively to the explanations of the Jewish salesman. "I understand everything you said about the machine, but who will press the button?" The one, and only one reason why the white race boasts so much of its superiority is because there are too many Negroes in the race today who are not willing to "press the button." Mr. Marcus Garvey is a salesman for the same concern and the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League has patronized him by taking one of his machines and . the New Negro is "pressing the button" himself and will continue to press it until the race is emancipated and African redeemed.

Pease and full size #1 Florence formula without or obligation to me Lonely South Africa Farm District Scene of the Mad Scramble for the Wealth in Dirt Three thousand people, including "poor whites," experienced diggers, students, clerks, and even girls, took part in the wild race of peg clams on the new diamond diggings at Zeeo koefontein, on the banks of the Vall River recently. A short time previously J. J. Tromp bought a farm in this vicinity, a poor, desperate sort of farm, hidden away on a lonely part of the veld. Once in possession of the farm, however, he discovered diamondiferous soil and began working a valuable claim with some 200 natives which is now returning him an average of from 2,000 pounds to 3,000 pounds a week. According to, general practice, therefore, the Government declared the area surpurging the farm a proclaimed area, and fixed a day for the rush. No fewer than 2,000 claim licenses were taken out during the three days preceding the rush, which thus made the event one of the biggest diamond rushes ever held in South Africa, says Capt. Franklin, in Adventure Magazine. On the day appointed nearly 2,000 men and boys formed the far-flung line behind the mining commissioner, C. M. Jack, and his detachment of mounted police. A few athletic girls showed prominently in the waiting crowd. The long proclamation was read as the runners clashed their iron pegs and impatiently swayed in readiness to rush. Soon after 11 o'clock struck the last words of the proclamation were read, and the line of flags was lowered in ```markdown ``` Every Division is instructed to hold solums services on this day at which time the members will raise their voices to God that the heart of President Coolidge be not hardened toward the petition, for Marcus Garvey's immediate pardon, which is before him at this time. unison. So began the greatest rush ever seen by the mining-commissuer who has had many years of experience in the Transvaal. For 500 yards the path was cleared. Youngsters in shorts and football jerseys and hardened old diggers drew ahead. Twenty donkeys charged before the oncoming rush, and thousands of Kaffirs on flanking kopjes raised a continuous cheering. A volley of curses rang out, here and there as the more impetuous stumbled against their fellow runners or blundered over boulders to the ground. Trouvers were torn and ripped by the them bushes, and many of the runners fell by the way. But the great mass rushed on down the gully, which rapidly closed over the first 400 yards to where the site of the rich alluvial deposits lay around the owner's spine, which extends from the edge of the running water in the great sandy river bed. For 100 yards between the rocky ridges pegs were feverishly driven in. Several disputes occurred, but these were quietly settled by the officials. J. J. Tromp, interviewed, said: "I can see very little valuable ground left for those who are digging to-day. Not 50 per cent. of my farm has alluvial deposit, and what there is I hold." Mr. Tromp expressed himself as willing to do whatever he could for the poorer men. "A lot of expensive apparatus is required to mine my ground," he said, "but I shall increase my workings and take on a lot of white men, but most Asthma HAY FEVER Baking, Wheezing, Gasping and Short Breath Keep Soundly the First Night be a sufferer from choking, wheezing, waking, gasping Asthma, Hay Fever or you will be glad to learn that your suf- fer you can sleep soundly every night from the condition on pristine experience with Asthma in a bottle of the pleasant, scientific Florence is this bonfire offer with ordinary free sam- pliance Formula.

To show the richness of his reserve claims, Mr. Tromp said that his was the heaviest gravel he had seen during fifteen years of prospecting in alluvial diamond fields, and his returns were equivalent to the highest obtained from any blue-ground pipes in South Africa. "My largest stone," Mr. Tromp said, "has been one of 84½ carats, and it was a Cape Byewater stone; but I am receiving from twenty pounds to twenty-seven pounds per-carat for the finest class of my stones, and that is a price above the average for South African diamonds."

ORIENTAL THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.I.A. DIVISIONS Mf. L. Awooner 'Renner, a recent graduate of the Carnegie Institute of Technology, Pittsburgh, and a native of Gold Coast, British West Africa, arrived in Montreal (via Toronto) on July 19. Mr. Awooner Renner was invited to address the Literary Club at its weekly meeting held last Thursday in the U. N. I. A. Hall at 134 Chatham street, Mr. Trott, president, occupied the chair. The attendance was exceptionally good. The subject of the picture's address was "Young Africa's Appeal to the Western World." Mr. Awooner Renner padded a glowing tribute to the U. N. I. A. and confirmed the high quality of its program, which is based upon the redemption of Africa. The speaker described Africa as a continent greater than America. He said he was proud of the fact that Africa represents a variety of climates, customs, conditions, peoples and language. He was emphatic in his denunciation of white superiority and of the so-called Western civilization. He stressed the idea that Africa's doctrine is "the redemption of the Fatherland." In the opinion of the lecturer, Mohammedanism is the only hope for young Africa. The doctrine of the Koran is sounder than the supernaturalities which are considered by Christians as the precious jewel of the soul. Polygamy, representation, self-government, industry, thrift and racial consciousness are some of the needs of young Africa. Emphatic anglause greeted the speaker, when he reviewed the injustice perpetrated on young Americans by foreign exploiters, and predicted that within the near future the situation will be entirely changed. Mr. Awooner Renner is a gifted speaker. He intends returning to West Africa on the completion of his legal studies. The concluding part of his address was devoted to the answering of questions asked by members of the club. These questions deal with the political and economic conditions of British West Africa. The speaker, having made intensive study of conditions both at home and abroad, was able to offer some constructive suggestions on the best means of working out some of the grave problems that confront the Negro race. The address was well received and Mr. Awooner Renner was invited to address the local branch on Sunday. Other contributors to the program were: Miss Knight, recitation; Mr. Jones, violin selection; Miss Moc, recitation; Mr. Sealy, flute solo; Mrs. Dekield, address of welcome. CHARLES H. ESTE, Reporter. LOS ANGELES, CAL. Sunday, July 26, was a wonderful day in our regular mass meeting, which was the beginning, of a series of lectures by Dr. A. J. Booker, one of our prominent physicians, on Africa.

OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA Sunday afternoon, July 26, the Oakland Division rendered a most interesting program, featuring several special numbers, this being the last Sunday of their "Dollar Day Drive." Details of this drive are to be made known when the quotar is reached. One of our most prominent local citizens, Mr. E. Hodge, our second vice-president, gave a very spirited discussion on "Africa," and the adopted slogan, "Africa for the Africans, those at home and those abroad." Acting as the Master of Ceremonies, he introduced the Juveniles as the future Princes and Princesses of Africa. A short and firing talk was given by Miss Mary Clark, the acting Mistress of Ceremonies, who introduced her sister, Miss Ruth Clark who delivered a recitation entitled "Though Temptation Press, Stand Your Test." She received liberal applause and responded with an original poem entitled "Carry the Program On." Our celebrated choir next favored the meeting with a new selection, "Unanswered. Yet," which was appreciated. An interesting and pleasant surprise was next given us by our President, Rev. C. Williams, who chose for his subject "The Need of a New Intelligence." Considerable emphasis was placed on the subject, and the vital need to our race stressed. "The choir next rendered "O Africa. Awaken!" Mr. E. Holloway, a stunner Garveyte and a loyal member of our organization, contributed a few remarks. We then sang our most devoted song to our noble leader, "Where He Leads Me I Will Follw." We were next thrilled by the Current Topic, read by Mr. A. Jordan, unfolding the Rifman success and accomplishments. A letter from one of our prominent members, now visiting in Africa was also read. The National Anthem, "Advance to Victory," was then lustily sung. Last, but not least, was the speech of Professor Barclay, which proved indeed interesting and inspiring.

This division is not so large as some, but we are a very determined few and we are growing every day. Emmy propaganda is not in any way affecting the work and the growth of the division. MRS. ELIZA L. POWELL, Reporter. BELLE VIEW, PANAMA The officers, members, friends, and well-wishers celebrated their third Garvey Day on Sunday, May 3. The meeting was well attended despite the inclementity of the weather. The religious part of the program was conducted by the chaplain, who delivered an impressive sermon concerning the Hon. Marcus Garvey and his sufferings. The program for the day was a lengthy one, which consisted of songs, recitations, speeches, solos and the reading of different portions of The Negro World by the officers of the division. The meeting was closed in the usual manner by the chaplain. MORALES, CUBA Friday night, July 17, will long be remembered by members, friends and enemies of the Morales division when the division was honored with the presence of two high officials of the U. N. L. A. Sir William L. Sherrill, Acting President-General, and Sir Clifford S. Bourne, High Chancellor. When their visit was announced excitement ran almost to fever heat. Both gentlemen, who spoke in Los Amates the night previous, arrived here on passenger train accompanied by Mr. Drummond President of Los Amates-Division; they were entertained by Mr. Samuel L. Harvey, a faithful, N. U. L. A. supporter. At 7 P. M. members could be seen impatiently waiting to hear the distinguished visitors. Eventually the hour came and on the entering of the two officials the audience rose and sang the Ethiopian National Anthem heartily. The meeting opened with the usual procedure; The Opening Ode From Greenland's Ice Mountains; prayer by Mr. V. A. Fisher; opening address by President Mr. E. Kirlew (who also occupied the chair) and in a neat and well tuned speech welcomed the audience and visitors. A song from Mr. Drummond followed. "Listen to the voice of Garvey." An encore was called for which he responded to. Then Mr. Charles Dixon, Secretary, addressed the gathering briefly. Here the President introduced the Honorable Sir Clifford whom he said (and right so), was no stranger to us. The gentleman was evidence in the form as he kept the audience spellbound for nearly an hour; he spoke of the many incumbrances, with which the management had to undergo from time to time but did not fall to mention the proud fact that the incarceration of the Honorable Marcus Garvey, contrary to the opinions of his enemies, has served, to give the organization a bigger push. "The only thing they have succeeded in doing," he said, "was the temporary removal of our Honorable Leader from amongst us." "And don't you believe," he concluded, "that the Honorable Marcus Garvey is suffering? He is too big to suffer. He is bigger than anything that can happen to him." At this stage, the organist, Mrs. E. B. Small, played "Ring the Bells of Heaven," whilst the collection was being taken up. Then came the long-awaited moment. The Chairman rose solemnly, and proceeded to introduce the chief speaker. In the course of his remarks he said, "It is my lot to introduce the honorable gentleman. This I will not attempt to do. Let us hear the cannon of Ethiopia thunder in the person of Sir William L. Sherful." After expounding in masterly fashion the aims and objects of the organization he represents, Mr. Sherrill paid a glowing tribute to its founder, whom he said was ever greater than Moses. Because Moses led a people willing to follow him, and Marcus Garvey is leading a people who is not willing to follow him. The spaker gave many humorous jokes, all serving to throw light upon the program of the U. N. I. A. He ridiculed Negroes who seek to bleach themselves, white; if the Creator had desired he had enough metieriel to have made you as white as snow. Therefore, if he made your black it is because he wanted to. Dare you say the Almighty was wrong? Negroes must learn to be proud of their women, pride in their broad noses and glory in the wooly heads. After speaking for nearly two hours the speaker concluded by asking his hearers to rally to the cause, redoubling their efforts. If four hundred million Negroes concentrate their thoughts on one objective, they can redeem any spot on God's green earth. Quite a few members willingly contributed to the Black Orchid Reserve and Operating Fund. The visit incorporated the storage of the membership and index, level as we were, we are 100 per cent better members. A. T. TAMOR, Engineer SPECIAL CONVENTION NOTICE 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 every day during the whole of their local convention. This need not interfere with your regular collection. It simply means that at each meeting the members and friends must be given an opportunity to contribute to the Parent Body. These collections must be telegraphed to the Parent Body daily as taken up. WILLIAM L. SHERRILL, AKRON. OHIO On Sunday, July 25, Akron Division yield one of the most successful meetings of the year. Before the regular mass meeting began Rev. Barber, Jr., of Chicago, preached the sermon "The Birth of a Nation" before an audience of visitors, friends and members from Massillon, Canton, Allentown, Tulare and Youngstown. Dinner was served to the friends and members of other divisions after the meeting. At 3 p.m. the regular mass meeting began. Mr. McChlatchie, president of the Massillon Division, was in charge of the meeting. Captain Jackson of Cleveland was in charge of the Legions and Juveniles. The program of today was an excellent one. It was his follows: Singing of the Ethiopian Anthem by the whole audience; address by Master Austen Autry of Massillon; solo by Miss Lucille Perkins; a few remarks by Rev. Strour; address by Mr. William Davis, president of the Toledo Division. He held the audience absolutely spellbound for an hour. Akron Division is doing fine in every way, and each day it is growing stronger through the efforts of the officers. Each member is a missionary for the cause of Africa's redemption. The members have pledged themselves in every way to support the Parent Body and to fight on with the courage of the Red to defend the Black as long as they stand on the Green BARBERTON, QHIO A successful mass meeting was held under the supervision of the ladies of the Barberton Division on Sunday, July 26.

The East Orange Division reports with much regret and deep sorrow the death of one of its most faithful members, Mrs. Alice Corriah. Mrs. Corriah was the wife of First Lieutenant Alexander Corriah and was a true supporter of the division both morally and financially. She was one of the division's most willing workers and generous contributors. Mrs. Corriah left to mourn her loss a husband, one sister, three brothers and a host of distant relatives and friends. E. A. REED, The Honorable R. H. Bachelor was the distinguished visitor at the San German Division the first week in July. Mr. Bachelor came, for the purpose, of instructing and encouraging the division and his visit was a highly successful one. On July 5, the division held an outing at which Mr. Bachelor spoke to an immense crowd. The subject of his address was the program of the U. N. L. A. and the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. He emphasized the need for more confidence and cooperation among Negroes. There was much in Mr. Bachelor's address to enlighten, encourage and inspire the faithful members of the organization who are struggling to carry on the work here in spite of much opposition and enemy propaganda. Two other meetings held on the evening of the same day were well attended. The outlook for the work here is very encouraging. We have no reason to feel any apprehension regarding the continued progress and growth of the division.

College Heads Differ On What Ails Education What is the trouble with our schools? Four college presidents answered this question with as many different explanations. Livingstone Farrand, president of Cornell, said that colleges were being turned into factories, where more time was given to the study of steam engines than, to the study of life. Walter D. Scott, president of Northwestern University, said that the colleges of the country were leaving religion out of education and were teaching too many material things and not enough spiritual lessons. Ray Lynam Wilbur, president of Leeland Standford University, said that colleges must find a new moral code and stop tilling out people who find nothing to do but chase a golf ball. Ernest M. Hopkins, president of Dartmouth, said that American colleges are not teaching their students to think, because they are too materialistic. China today is the chief source of supply for eggs and egg products. Last year she exported about 100,000,000 dozens of eggs after filling her domestic demands. - C. P. B.

Traveling as we are from State to State, and visiting the large cities of these United States, receiving letters and dispatches from the remotest parts of the world, we rejoice at the fact that the ideals of economic independence and nationalism expounded by Marcus Garvey have permeated the minds of men and women of African descent everywhere, and no human agency can stop them in their onward march to progress and to power. The imprisonment of Marcus Garvey has not served the enemies' purposes. On the contrary it has intensified the determination and zeal of his followers, and roused to a sense of sympathetic understanding the apathetic members of his race. White men who did not realize that a new type of Negro made up the membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are now alarmed at the growing proportions of the organization, and the large-hearted of them declare that such a splendid group of ambitious people ought to be helped and not persecuted. Yellow and brown men of Asia are reaching out the hand of fellowship to us, and saying, "Let us join forces and throw off the yoke of white oppression." When a man can serve his people cheerfully and without material gain, in spite of unjust and vicious attacks by his own people, and opposition and persecution by others, then he is truly a leader; and when he can go to prison and although suffering physically send out from week to week the most inspiring messages, surely his enemies are defeated in their plans, and the thoughtful are bound to admit the greatness of such a man and the righteousness of his cause. It is the suffering of martyrs that bring speedy success to any movement, and we are glad that the race at this time can produce one unselfish enough and courageous enough to bear imprisonment and even death for a free and redeemed Africa. His sacrifices are not being made in vain, and although his contemporaries are non-appreciative of him, yet posterity of his own race will bless him, and other races respect him, because of his determined and unyielding stand for race and homeland. The longer Marcus Garvey stays in prison, the bigger strides will the organization take. It may seem paradoxical to say this but it is true. His imprisonment is a blow aimed at independent Negro leadership, and knowing this Negroes are falling in line with the organization, as they never did before, and have pledged their lives to support their own leader, whether he be in New York, Atlanta, Timbucco or Liberia. Had Marcus Garvey been "picked" by the white people to lead Negroes, he would have had smooth sailing in his career, because he would have been the mouthpiece and tool of white oppression, hence only hearty co-operation would have come from the system in control, and Negroes would not have dared to oppose the white man's candidate who had financial and political backing. But when Marcus Garvey sounded the tocsin "Africa for the Africans, those at home and those abroad," he trod on the toes of greedy, exploiting European countries, who are tapping the economic resources of Africa in order to feed their half-starved population when he stated, "Negroes should be governed by Negroes everywhere." he sounded the doom of the Colonial systems of exploitation and aggression by whites, and a strong independent Negro race loomed up on the horizon, which was termed "a black peril." When he declared that "Negroes should evolve a leadership of their own," the white man's candidates for leadership got busy and sought to destroy him, knowing that their salaries and "hands out" would cease, and they would have to lead on their own merits and racial achievements. So these combined forces succeeded in putting him in prison which, apart from affecting his health, has not worried him in the least, because Marcus Garvey has already spent eight years of ceaseless toil teaching his people, and the millions of converts he has gained and the territory that they have covered spreading the gospel of a redeemed Africa is bound to bring about the realization of his dreams in a shorter period of time than he anticipated. No one can imprison the soul of a man. The mind will soar far beyond prison walls and iron rails. A brave man lives, even in confinement, when his beautiful thoughts are his boon companions, and any movement for the liberation of God's people will prosper if only because of the righteousness of its cause.

LEARN TO KEEP QUIET WHEN BETTER HALF INSISTS ON TALKING, JUDGE LBLOND ADVISES, IF MARRIED LIFE IS TO BE HAPPY Sjlenoe on Part of Husband or Wife at Times Is Golden, Jurist Says, as Pair Wrangle Over Child CINCINNATI.—If you would lead a happy married life and avoid the Divorce Court, learn to keep quiet when your better half insists upon talking." is the advice of Judge LeBland, presiding in Domestic Relations Court. He bases his observation on actual marital experience. "When your wife wants to talk, let her," says Judge LeBland. "And while she is talking keep quiet. And when your husband insists on talking let him talk. There are times in married life when quietness on the part of the one or the other is a virtue. It avails many a quarrel and usually keeps the parties out of Divorce Court. The logic is simple. If only one person does the talking there can be no quarrel. However, if both insist on talking at the same time and in having the last word, married life is bound to be unhappy and eventually will lead to the Divorce Court." Judge LeBlondy, observations were made from the bench in Domestic Relations Court yesterday, while Louis Polster, 33 years old, a salesman, living on Hemlock street, and Mrs. Helen C. Polster, 26 years old, a beauty parlor operative, of 2326 Chatham street, were wrangling over the custody of their seven-year-old child. At a hearing of the wife's suit for divorce a few days ago she received a decree on the ground of cruelty and war given the custody of the child. Polster did not contest the divorce. Wants to See Child Yesterday, however, he appeared in court to prosecute a motion to amend the decree of the court giving the custody of the child to his wife. He said he desired to see the child several times a week. Mrs. Polster objected, saying that she could not endure the mental torture of having the child in the custody. "I could not bear to think of you taking the child out riding in your automobile," she told her husband. "I know how recklessly you drive, I have ridden with you too many times and I know 'how many accidents' you have been in." "How many accidents have I been in?" the husband came back. "Do you know—" Judge LeBlond was obliged to rap for order. In a few minutes, however, the couple again were wrangling over another question. "Your Honor, this morning when I came into the Courthouse I saw my wife standing out in the hall, 'Polster said, 'I said: 'Good morning, Mrs. Polster.' She turned her back. I said: 'Why don't you speak to me?' She said: 'Why should I?' I said: 'Why, we are going upstairs to talk this over, anyway.' She said: 'Maybe you won't get upstairs.'" Wife Interrupts At this point the husband's narrative was interrupted by the wife. "Polster, you don't have to throw those things at me," she declared indignantly, "I want you to know—" Again Judge LeBlond rapped, for order. He told them that they should forget their personal enemies and look only to the welfare of their child. He ordered that Polster he given the custody of the child on Saturday afternoons at o'clock and keep it not later than 5 o'clock Saturday night when it is to be returned to its mother. The father then asked permission to see the child sometimes during the week at its mother's home. "I have no conjection to him seeing the child," Mrs. Polster said. "I have always taught the child to honor and respect its father. I wouldn't want him to keep the child away from me and I won't prevent him from seeing it. However, I don't want him molesting me. I am through with him." The husband started to reply, but was cut short by Judge LeBlond who delivered the foregoing observations on married life. "You both appear to be nice people, but you both insist upon talking at the same time and you both want the last word," the Court said. "Your actions here this morning have convinced me that it is utterly impossible for you two to live together, and that I made no mistake in granting a divorce." A Baby In Your Home KNOWS MAN IN INFINITE VARIETY Co-ed Writes as Spirit Moves Her There may be a lot of them over at the University of California, and there probably are, but I know of one young co-ed who certainly knows about men. Just listen to her: Once upon a time I thought I understood man, and could marry one with one hand tied behind me and my eyes shut. But I have discovered: If you flatter a man, it frightens him to death. "If you permit him to make love to you, he soon tires of you. "If you don't he is offended from the start. "If you agree with him on everything, you soon cease to interest him. "If you don't cease to charm him. "If you don't believe all he tells you, he thinks you are a cynic. "If you do, he thinks you are a fool. "If you wear gay colors and rough and startling hats, he hesitates to take you out. "If you wear a little brown toque and a tailored suit, he takes you out, but gazes all evening at some other woman in gay colors. "If you are jealous of him, he can't endure you. "If you are not he can't understand you. "If you share in his gayeties and approve of his smoking, he yows you are leading him to the devil. "If you disapprove of his gayeties and urge him to give up smoking, you are driving him to the devil. "If you are affectionate he soon tries of your kisses and seeks consolation in some other woman's. "If you are a sweet, old-fashioned clinging vine, he doubts if you have any brains. "If your modern, advanced and independent, he doubts if you have scruples or a heart. "If you are cute and boyish, he longs for a soulmate. "If you are brilliant, he longs for a playmate. "And all the time he is falling in love with you he's trying to make you into what you're not, never were or never will be. "Now, please do not ask me how I discovered all these things about Man." -Sun, Francisco Chronicle. San Francisco Chronicle. Black Cross Nurses of New York The Mouth. Probably there is no trouble which is more common than an unclean mouth. In the child it may show itself by the presence of little ulcers on the inside of the cheeks or elsewhere. These usually occur in unhealthy, underfed children and one of the first aids of their removal is to improve the general tone of the child by feeding etc. The use of an antiseptic mouth wash tends to hasten the cure. The prevailing disease of today is pyrexia, commonly called recoagulizing or spongy gums. It is caused by food collecting and decaying between the teeth, and at the juncture of the tooth and gum. The soft food becomes dry and hard, forming deposits and pus-sacs which are infiltrated with pus. The gums are receded on the teeth, soft, spongy, and bleed with the least touch and the breath is very foul and offensive. They are dull and blush-red in color with an elevated, inflamed area around each tooth affected. This condition is serious and requires the services of a dentist at once to remove the hardened deposits and let out the pus, which is being absorbed in the system, thereby weakening it and causing other diseases. In the prevention of dental disease, there are three main lines of defensive action: 1. The adoption of a proper diet from the earliest age, this demanding the practice of masticating. 2. Cleanliness in the form of washing out the mouth and brushing the teeth. 3. The systematic inspection of the teeth by a competent dentist, and the early treatment of decay. The teeth should be examined at least once a year. It is particularly important that this should be done regularly to a child from the age of six years, when the permanent teeth usually begin to emerge.

WASHINGTON The Trip, from Philadelphia to Norfolk Which Was Reached in Raging Snowstorm Enthusiastic Meetings Held—The Start for Cuba Written for The Negro World by HANNAH NICOLAB Tuesday, June 27.—Awoke early, dressed and weat on deck. The morning was beautiful although there was a touch of frost in the air. The water of the ocean is clear and just rough enough to make a few white caps. The sea-gulls are flying and dipping and every once in a while settling on the water. The sun hangs like a huge ball of golden light over all. Shortly after breakfast the pilot came 'board'—We reached. Norfolk 2.30 p. m. in a raging snow storm, nevertheless a large crowd stood on the dock waiting to greet us, black cross nurses and a band. The wind was blowing at the rate of 65 miles an hour; it was impossible to dock the ship until 7.25, which was quite a disappointment to the people who intended to come aboard to inspect the ship. As I stood on the deck as the ship came alongside, one of the first persons I saw was the president-general, and he remained on the deck until a temporary gang-plank was erected, and was the first one aloft. Dinner was served and we all prepared to go to the evening meeting. The snow and rain sieced as it fell, and the women in the party dreaded the perilous journey down the improvised gangplank, but we all made the journey in perfect safety. 6 The meeting was held in the Calvary Baptist church of which Rev. Madison is pastor. It was not so likely attended as we had expected it to be in Norfolk. The members who were there seemed very earnest and pleased that we brought the ship to Norfolk. After speeches by Miss Davis, Mr. Carter, Mr. Johnson, and Miss De Meine the meeting closed. As we had the promise of a cargo of coal, we were compelled to stay over. So a meeting was staged for the following evening and we returned to ship about 11 o'clock, Jan. 25. Although the weather was extremely cold and it was raining hard, there were quite a few visitors to the ship. A meeting was held in the dining room and a few people subscribed for bonds. Among the visitors were Rev. Madison and his secretary. Mr. Garvey was very busy making arrangements for the continuation of our trip. There was no charge for the evening meeting so the church was packed. Everyone seemed heartily in accord with our program, which was outlined by the speakers. After meeting we returned to the ship. Thursday, Jan. 29, 9 a.m.--The ship was towed to the coiling stations. It was raining very hard. Every one was on deck, as the necessary arrangements were being made for the transfer of the passengers who were to return to New York; after they had been safely landed, and the coiling of the ship was completed. Mr. Garvey returned to the ship for a few last orders, and bidding us goodbye, departed at 5.45 p. m. We were to leave for Cuba 6 p. m. but owing to a storm raging on the coast we were delayed until the following morning. Friday, Jan. 30.—The pilot arrived 6 a.m. and by 6.30 a.m. we were under full steam for Cuba. 8.30 a.m. we passed Cape Henry. We passed an un-eventual day. The weather was clear and the sea calm. Although we had been anxious to get started on our journey we all agreed that it was best that the captain had waited.

Teaching Young Folks the Advantages of Farm Life From the Northeast Journal and Guide. The Agricultural Department of Tuskegee Institute, the Alabama Extension Service and the United States Department of Agriculture are cooperating in intensive efforts to give Negro boys and girls of the South a new vision on farming and farm life. Their efforts are centered in a ten-day course in agriculture given at the school to boys and girls, men and women not regularly enrolled at the institute. One hundred and thirty students have just returned to their homes after pursuing the course which is intended, its soononsays, "to provide for the better day that must inevitably come to the Negro farmers both in the field and home and to assist Negro boys and girls, otherwise bent to migration, to stay at home and on the farm, where life will worth living and better farming methods are employed." County Home and Farm Demonstration Agents of Alabama are said to have determined to redouble their efforts with the boys and girls "since agriculture is the backbone of civilization." These educational agencies are embarked upon a high purpose. The potential benefits of their efforts to this nation cannot be overestimated. Reports from Northern and Western urban centers, indicate that the labor market in industry has reached the saturation point and employment is quite general. Congested cities in the border States are having their labor and housing difficulties. If the youth of the rural communities are given a new vision on country life, if through proper training lift the best farm methods they bring about a revival of interests in agriculture the flow of man power from the fields to the factories will be checked; the country's food supply doubled, and its social disorders minimized. No teacher of colored youth, nor any person or agency having the opportunity of inducing youth's outlook on life, need hesitate to encourage colored boys and girls to become farmers, farmers in their own right by virtue of ownership. Said Dr. C. C. Taylor, dean of the Graduate College of North Carolina State College, in a recent address to a group of ministers, teachers and farmers at Hampton Institute, "It is better for a man to own plan and farm five acres of his own land and get the rewards from his own accomplishment than to work twenty acres for someone else. Men cannot have complete self-respect and develop their full capacities and at the same time work for a person." That is putting strongly a patent truth. If our race is to reach a well balanced status in the realm of material accomplishments and possessions, we must bear in mind the great relation of farming to the economic strength of nations and races.

FEMALE TROUBLES FREE ROOM GERMAN WOMEN WANT OLD-TIME FAMILY LIFE COLOGNE, Germany (By Mall).—A crusade against the "insults to true womanhood that are offered by the public life of today through, modern literature, the movies and theatres," was proposed by Frau von Tilling during the German women's week, held in conjunction with the millennial celebration of the Rhineland. She pleaded for resumption of the old-time family life. Fostering of a more intellectual life for young women, a healthier physical training as a safeguard against the demoralizing influence of the present day, were advocated by Frau von Tilling. A conscientious devotion to household work also, she thought, would improve the moral pulse of women. Suffrage Amendment Anniversary Here Five years ago on August 26 the proclamation of the ratification of the woman suffrage amendment was signed. Tennessee after a most dramatic fight during a two weeks' special session of the Legislature, had at last accepted the amendment, making the thirty-sixth State, and Mr. Everett Colby, Secretary of State, sat up all night at Washington that he might sign the proclamation the instant the certificate should come from, Tennessee. The League of Women Voters is planning celebrations of this anniversary throughout the whole country. In this State the league is particularly lucky in having the great Leaders in that victory. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt and Mrs. Mary Garrett Hay, within reach. A jumbo展 will be given on that date in New York City in their honor. Miss Ruth Morgan, head of the National League of Women Voters committee on international cooperation to prevent war, Mrs. Gordon Norrie, Mrs. Raymond Brown, Mrs. Norman de R Whitehouse and Mrs. Henry Golddard Leach constitute the committee in charge. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon Mrs. Catt will speak over WEAF on "The Next Step," that is, what women, now that they have the suffrage, must do for the good of the world. Mrs. Louch chairman for New York on Miss Merrill is committed on international cooperation, in arranging with the Assembly district leaders of the League of Women Voters throughout this State and in Greater New York for radio tees in honor of the former suffrage workers, of each locality. These parties will be held at houses where a radio be installed and the guests will gather in time to hear Mrs. Catt. Partner Wanted Man or woman. Good established business.

PB. Spanish Section La política del president Coolidge de retirar tan rápidamente como sea posible las tropas norteamericanas que se encuentran en países extranjeros, se hijo efectiva en Nicaragua, donde se embarcaron de regreso a los Estados Unidos los ciento veinte soldados de infantería de marina estacionados alli. Uso de su potencialidad o inmiscuidadión en la contienda, es el consejo de nuestro presidente general a su raza— No tiene tiempo que porder en conmiseración o critica; su pensamiento esta concentrado en un año ideal—La liberación de Africa—Se siente tranquilo por estar compenetrado de no, haber desobedecido ninguno de los preceptos del gran creador Despues de trece años de servicio; el contingente de marinos, que ha actuado con el carácter de guardia de la legación en Managua, informará al secretario de la marina Wilbur a bordo del buque norteamericano Henderson en el puerto de Corinto y deja Stras los revueltos asuntos de Nicaragua. Esta acción sigue a la retiraida militar de la Republica Dominicana a principios del afico. El presidente Coolidge y el secretario de kellog. Kellog.tienen esperanza de completar la política de retiraida de sus tropas de infantería de marina, de Haiti,坦 pronto como la situación alli lo permita. He visto que ciertos periódicos estan muy preocupados en cuanto concierne a mi encarcelación y a mi residencia en el futuro. Estos manifiestan que he de cumplir tres años y medio de prisión, al final de cúyo término he de ser inmediatamente deportado a mi país natal. Tal preocupación sería considerada como mera broma, a no ser por el hecho de que mi imaginación está sumamente ocupada con los asuntos de mayor importancia que afectan directamente la felicidad de mi raza. Aunque el departamento de estado se ha negado a fijar una fecha para la terminación de la ocupación nortamericana en Haiti, tiene entendido que parte de estas tropas se retiratar antes de la proxima primavera: No tengo realmente tiempo disponible para considerar la conmiseración, las preocupaciones de los tontos, el aplauso que dimane de los cuatro puntos del globo, las sugestiones y los deseos, las críticas y los insultos de aquellos que desearían constigrar al infierno las aspiraciones progresistas del negro del presente. Tenga yo que cumplir tres años, tres días 6 tres horas mas en la celda La persecución de los misioneros protestes norteamericanos en Granada, Nicaragua, durante el mes ultimo, habia despertado alguna duda respecto de si los marinos se retirarian como se habia proyectado. Informes de debuena fuente rectificados anuncian que the entera población de Granada esta resentida con la tentativa de los protestantes a allegar proselitos y que continuara empleando métodos violentos para echar a los misioneros del país. de esta prisión, a mí exclusivamente concierne en cuanto tienda a restringir mis actividades, en persecución de lo que creo la obra mas gloriosa que mortal alguno intente llevar a su realización -el enaltecimiento de la raza negra, el traslado de un pueblo de gran potencialidad, aunque por muchos años.avejado, a una posición meritoria eh el concierto honesto y generoso, de la gran familia humana. El departamento de estado ha decidido no mezclarse más de lo necesario en esa delicada situación, contentándose con pedir al goberno nicaragüense y a la policía especial que proteja las vidas de los misióneros. Aunque ciertos grupos en Nicaragua han apelado a este goberno, el presidente Coolidge tiene arraigada la opinión de que no es laarea de los Estados Unidos conservar el orden interno en los países extranjeros. La actual retirada fuida aplazada desde el último enero por el departamento de estado para-mitir a Nicaragua que preparara a sugendermeria. Revestido como esta mi espiritu de una gran conformidad, no me es rudo el sentirme cohartado para respirar el aire libre y percibir los saludos de mis conciudanos en la catedra o en los paseos de las grandes ciudades. La determinación que se ha apoderado de mi ser me alienta para soportar el sufrimiento espiritual y material que debido a las circumstancias pueda-experimentar. Mi protesta en contra de la persecución de que he sido victima, es la protesta de aquel que está en el pleno convencimiento de no haber cometido crimen alguno, de no haber violado ninguna de las leyes o preceptos sagrados del gran creador. Alli acamparon por doce años marinos norteamericanos haciendo guardia al consulado de su nación. Fueron a rueng del gobierno nicaragüense y se les despidió cuál se despide a amigos que se alejan. El asta que ostentó el pabellón norteamericano por doce años ostenta el pabellón de Nicaragua des ahora, y el campamento queda ocupado por la guardia nicaragüense. El comandante Calvin Brooks Carter, mandará los sucesos de los marinos americanos. No tengo que presentar disculpa alguna en cuanto a mis servicios prestados a la raza; no tengo que dar satisfacción alguna en cuanto a las propósitos de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. Ella es el resultado de la aspiración del negro por aquella oportunidad, aquella libertad, aquella democracia que es común a la humanidad; aquella oportunidad por la cual hemos luchado y nos ha sido negada por aquellos pueblos con los cuales y por los cuales hemos vertido nuestra propia sangre. Realizamos que el mundo no nos conceptua como pueblo, por el hecho de que siempre hemos estado mendingando aquello que nos pertenece, no solamente moral sino por derecho divino; pero ya estamos determinados a demandar y marchamos hacia la conquista de nuestra absoluta emancipación. Crisis en el aumento de población El más grave problema que confronta la nación japonese hoy es lo que hay que hacer con la constantemente creciente población, como alimentarla y vestirla y la consolidación del haber nacional en brazos en beneficio del país, declarar el ministro de hacienda Junnosuke, presidente del banco del Japon y del Yokohama Specie Bank en entrevista con la United Press. Nuestra raza nunca ha odiado y por tal actuación el negro parece ser muy poco comprendido; en el curso de su existencia siempre ha devuelto la sonrisa por el insulto, característica del negro del pasado. Hoy dia el mundo se afronta con un nuevo negro—el negro decidido a medir con el mismo metro que se le mide. Estamos astiados de tanta segregación y de tantas avejaciones. Hora es ya de actuar de un modo definitivo y nuestra decisión esta hecha en tal sentido. Demandamos aquello que simple y exclusivamente es propiedad de nuestra raza, y estamos en la plena convicción de que realizado esto, disfrutaremos de una paz eterna. La contestación, Inouye Junnosuke cree, consiste ne la industrialización del pais. El Japon debe seguir los pasos de Inglaterra y los Estados Unidos y venir a ser una de las grandes potenciarias industriales. Esta es la única manera como puede proveer al aumento anual de más de seiscientos mil habitantes. El Japon moderno, continua, parece haber perdido su orientación respecto a casi todo. Su actual posición es fundamentalmente diferente de la que obtuvo hace sesenta años, cuando lo que tenian que hacer nuestros ampeados era seguir los pasos de las naciones occidentales, sin procurarse de la iniciativa o independencia en la política del estado. Hoy no existen esos ejemplos que seguir. El Japon debe resolver el problema de la alimentación para las nuevas bocas, o perceer. Mientras nuestro elemento progresista se levanta en defensa de su derecho, usando toda la fuerza de sus pulmones para que su voz sea escuchada en lo más recónido del universo, existe aún un corto número muy temeroso de catas actuaciones. Ellos retardan el avance progresista de la raza, pues tal espíritu en ninguna época desde el alborear de la creación nada práctico ha llevado a la realización. La civilización y la democracia de que disfruta gran parte de la humanidad, no fueron obtenidas por medio de temor sino por el valor manifestado. *El mundo ha pretendido ignorar y reducir a su mínima expresión la potencialidad de nucetra organización, pero aus miembros han de continuar la lucha inspirando a los demás en la defensa de sus desgados. El control de la natalidad debe dondearse como política del estado, cualquiera que sea su mérito desde el punto de vista individual. La emigración no es fácil. Ninguno pide acoge a nuestros inmigrantes en minimo limitado. Se habla de operatividades en el Brasil, por lo que no millora de ingenieros que el Brasil admitirá amabilmente no sigüen nada en propuesta del estatuto summo de la población.

Camino a la revolución Leon Trotzky, de fama soviet de Rusia, de la que fue durante años ministros de guerra, antes de ensayar a dar una contestación, ha formulado la siguiente pregunta: ¿A donde va Inglaterra? El dirigente soviac hace la pregunta y la contesta en su reciente libro con ese titulo, juzgando que Inglaterra está dirigiendo una revolución que se enqolgafan los Estados Unidos. Estos tendrán la bolsa de cambio de Nueva York, entre otros factores, a quien culpar del catalismico, sugiere Trotzky, el cual concluye sosteniendo que Nueva York, no Moscu, está lanzando a Inglaterra a una revolución. Trotzky pinta la bola de Nueva York en un prologo a la explición inglesa de su libro, como una organización en relación con la claul la comunista internacional es actualmente conservadora. Morgan, Dawes y jutius Barnes, dice, son lo herreros que están forjando la revolución europea. La podera presión mundial de los Estados Unidos, continua, esta continuamente haciendo imposible la posición de la industria británica, el comercio, las finanzas y la diplomacia. La competencia mundial de los Estados Unidos, así como su política extranjera sobre la deuda, está reduciendo a Europa a la pobrea, como resitado de la cual sobrevendrá la revolución. Trotzky sugiere que pleena escribir otro libro titulado A donde van los Estados Unidos? El publico recientemente también una replica al primer ministro Baldwin de la Gran Bretagna en relación con la revolución que predijo como consecuencia de lo que el ejuzgo el control del capitalismo y la buruguesia.

Magazine Section Suppose, then, one is walking behind an indubliably handsome African young lady. Her figure is lissom and graceful. She is swathed in the folds of a crimson silk lapp. and her naked shoulders vie with the petals of the orchid for softness and warmth of color. Suddenly she turns her head. In place of the expected regular features of beautiful brown one is confronted by a starling hideous mask of white pearl powder. Alas! that is what is happening today because of the impact of Aryan civilization upon Negro culture. The African malden of more than ordinarily wealthy birth has conceived, the notion that a thick coating of powder upon the face improves her appearance. To the prejudiced vision of the resident or visiting European the effect is both ludicrous and disconcerting. In the matter of henna, however, the African scores. The brown or black or yellow of foot and ankle may be wonderfully improved by the ruddy tints of of the root of this world-famous plant. From Egypt the secret of its valuable drying powers appears first to have come. Cleopatra's hair was artificially bronzed by a regular infusion of henna leaves. And it is probable that Helen of Troy burnished her tresses in the same oriental fashion. "In Northern and Eastern Africa, moreover, henna is used as a stain for the nails, just an antimony vivifies the eyes by an accentuation of the eyelids. Henna, antimony and rice, powder marched side by side from the banks of ancient' Nile to the conquest of the known world. After Egypt, Greece, After Greece, Rome. After Rome, Central Europe. That triumphant advance obtained right on to the middle age—rice powder, henna and antimony; antimony, henna and rice powder. Then came the eighteenth century—an outstanding period of excessive artificiality: This time was the time, that the "mouche" or beauty spot, became popular because of its sheer infectibility. Soap was not known. There was in high circles throughout the civilized world resort to vettable clouds of rice powder. The society beauty's face must have looked very like that of the rich African lady's today—a mask of inanality, lit only by the intelligence of the eyes. The "mouche" was meant to break that sharing regularity of feature Doubtless it soiled its end in an age when cleanliness was well-night impossible. We scarcely need telling that even the half-million of francs which the Marquise de Montespan apent each year on cosmetics could not guarantee the permanence of her charms over the affections of le Iro Solle. It is only since the growth of democratic governments that the poorer classes have had access to cosmetics. For many centuries the art of self-decoration remained a privilege of the rich and well worn. Right from Africa and Asia, in the south and east, to the shores of the Baltic, in the north, a painting of the face came to be regarded as the undeniable hall-mark of "caste." Hence working girls of all lands had to forego cosmetics. Today there are chequists shop in every big thoroughfare that do quite a thriving turnover in articles of the toilet. Without defending the use of cosmetics it may safely be said that every woman has the right to look her best. Modern medical science, however, has worked wonders in the improvement of articles meant for self-adornment. Practically all harmful substances have been eliminated. The modern girl may, therefore, no matter what her race or her class, powder her nose with impunity. She runs no risk of either disgustment or premature old age. Oultahe, Nigeria, West Africa. Alcoholic Insanity ALBANY. June 8. Alcoholic insanity in New York State, including men and women patients, has tripled in the five years that Probation had been an effect, according to the annual report of the Plate Hospital Commission, made public today. Last year, 179 new cases of alcoholic insanity, 188 men and approximately women, were admitted to the hospital. In 1978, the first year of rehabilitation, 188 cases were admitted, minority men and thirty-two women. The total of 178 cases last year were greater than by any year since 1851. Tenn — Pa. 118:33: "It is marvelous in our eyes." Subject — "God's Manifestations — Wonder to Man." The average person thinks of God only as a great Overseer, who dwells in the most magnificent mansion which can be conceived, seated upon a lofty throne, whose embellishments are beyond human description. This God is cognizant of man's affairs, but unmindful of every man's welfare, evidenced through the depths to which he subjects some, while others are reared to heights. Some are, suffering in dire want, while other surfeit in superfluity. Should we, however, look about us and understand our Father, our Creator, our Preserver, and our Protector we will find that God is all and in all. He is life itself; and no life is existent without Him. Therefore we behold Him in nature, concele" Him in mind, dwell with Him in spirit and move with Him in our physical activities—It is true that in all instances we do not live with Him; but the privilege is oura for the choosing. He never forces His will upon us, but we are free to choose to do His will. This, however, is dependent upon the light we have of God and His manifestations. Recently I saw the sincere efforts of a struggling, determined group of people handsomely rewarded through His intervention. I saw the forces of darkness (if such is true, I have my doubts) combining tothrow the efforts of this people; and when all seemed ready for the overthrow there arose out of the difficulty a ready and easy way. Some marveled and said, "Truly God is in this thing." Others said it was the kenness of some individual. Granting it was the ingenuity of some master mind, is not this the operations of God, through His Son? Are not we all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus? Yes, sons of God, there little marvel in the affairs of real men or the doings of sinners groups, founded for the purpose of advancing a truthful people. I saw one of the strongest human forces at work, asking to overthrow a struggling, yet determined effort, but when the conflict raged the hottest and all seemed out of the chaotic state, light came out of darkness and glory crowned our efforts. You tell me God is not manifest in all of our affairs and, I tell you, you do not know life, nor are you able to comprehend why you are living. You tell me that God is not mindful of man and his doingss and I will tell you that man is but an emanation of God, and therefore in being mindful of himself, he is mindful of God. Talk of miracles in the twentieth century. Look about you and see God demonstrating His love and care for us. See Him moving in our interest and you will understand that our very inspiration is His understanding. The sailing of the ship owned by the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, without funds for operation, and its return to its home port after four months and nineteen days in the West Indies and Central America is a miracle—to some it is a miracle to others and in the eyes of a majority it is wondrous. But to us of simple childhood faith and great understanding of God and His care, it is but a manifestation of His wisdom and demonstration of His truth. Truly it is marvelous that men and women of color, trained to skillfully against cooperation by force and power of example from early days of slavery, even unto the present time, should contribute of their meager earnings to support a cause that they know will require expenditure of large sums. Truly it is God's manifestations and man's wonder. Tut-ankh-Amen Palace Found in Good Condition From the New York Sun As palestine, which Tut-sankh-Amen, the Egyptian monarch, whilh although he lived 3,300 years ago, became not lonce since the foremost style dictator of the modern world, lived for twenty years of his gouvenir producing life, has recently been unearthed in Middle Egypt in an unusual state of preservation, according to announcement made today. Thomas Whittimore. American representative of the Egypt Exploration Society, told of the discovery upon his arrival today aboard the Cunard liner Mauritania. He was confident that the unearthing of the palace will add much to the knowledge of the king whose tomb was excavated at Luxor. The palace is at Akhaten. Built of bunk baskets and has been sand and left in a condition which will make almost perfect reconstruction of its various rooms and halls possible. It is 700 miles from Luxor. Even Decorations Preserved not only the palace itself, but many of its decorations are in good condition. The name of King Tat appears many times upon its walls and pillars. According to records, the palace was started in 1875 B. C. and finished twenty-five years later. — probably a speed record for ancient Egypt, where prostitute structures often were the result of centuries of palestaking work. Tat is believed to have lived in it about twenty years, with his father-in-law, during a period when both had departed from their ancient religion.

It is a story of the white man's infant written by one of his race not dead to the dictates of conscience. It is written as an appeal to the better natures of Englishmen and not, therefore, primarily intended for perusal by Negro eyes. But every Negro should read it. Especially, now that the French are at death-grips with our Moorish brethren in North Africa should we find a keen-interest in studying the section devoted to French or more correctly European diplomacy in Morocco in the years preceding the world war.

Hair Seed Magic Wonder Hair Grower Company-in-lits dealings with our Banli brothers and not feel an overpowering urge to do-all in your power for the cause of African Nationhood, then you ought to see an alienist. Often it is hard to keep up the spirit of race consciousness in the face of certain circumstances. Not that one loses love of race, but as an example—Comparing the attitude of the French in particular and most Latin races in general toward people of color with the attitude of cl-deravant Nordics toward the same people, one cannot help feeling kindly toward the former group. And, of course, your patriotism to race suffers by just that much. But when you remember on the other hand that your seeming friends are allies of your avowed enemies, and when you observe that Latins in a Saxon environment quickly take on the prejudicial views of Saxons, you are brought to the inevitable conclusion that no half measure of fraternization with the oppressing race will ever solve our racial difficulties. It simply means that to have any security in our liberties we must first achieve complete political independence. This does not mean that one must regard present national alignments, as altogether valueless. But it does mean that, while they are to be exploited to the limit of their several possibilities, they should not be regarded as the ultimate in our advance to power. Rather they should fill the place in our minds of temporary makeshift pending our complete autonomy. I hear a good deal of American Liberty, of British Justice, of French Tolerance, and I am not averse to admitting I have seen plenty of liberty extended to citizens in the United States, plenty of justice dealt to citizens in Great Britain—when said citizens are white—also plenty of tolerance shown members of my race in France. This country, however, is dependent on my race for man-power in time of war, and cannot afford, even were she so minded to be otherwise than tolerant. So, whenever I'm inclined to doubt the possibility of putting over the African program, I read some of the history of our racial delusion in the mother country. Then I see the possibility of African Nationhood through the spectacles of necessity. ERNEST E. MAIR. New York, N. Y. Kingship Does Not Vouchsafe Much of Opportunity I have been working with our people here for four years. I believe that the reason many of our people do not understand the program of the U. N. I. A. and the work Mr. Garvey is trying to do for us is because most of us do not understand much about production. I know a little about it because I spent seventeen years of my life in a country where there was a king and where they used ancient laws. I know that Mr. Garvey is right as to what our condition as a people will be in the coming years if we do not change the way we are traveling. A person can live eighty years in this country and not realize its possibilities if he has never lived in any other country. Living in a democratic country, we have unlimited opportunities to develop in every way in spite of the prejudice, we meet on account of our race.

PREDERICK MALONE. LABOR FEDERATION WARNNG AGAINST Illinois Petitions (Colu CHICAGO To the Editor of The Negro World: To the Editor of The Editor of The Negro World for more than four years. I was very much impressed with an article in a recent edition of the paper by Mr. A. S. Campbell, of Ortega, Cuba. This article dealt with a new system of handling crops. I think that Mr. Gampbell's suggestions were fine and ought to bring excellent results. Mr. Campbell's idea of planting different things, and that the crops would mature at different times of the year, is a very practical one. This would give employment the year round for a number of farmers in the same locality. I live in the State of Arizona. We have here a system of diversified farming. This is a system of planting the crops in rotation. We have tried the system of a single crop out here and met with failure. The system of rotation is meeting with success. Mr. Campbell deserves great praise for his very helpful article. Any one of us who points the way for any individual in our group to meet with economic and commercial success is doing the race a great kindness. CHARLES G. JOHNSON. Tempe, Arkansas.

Kitties, U. S. N., formerly governor of the Virgin Islands, to which President Coolidge sent an all-colored inquisitorial commission early last year, holds a high opinion of the people of the Virgin Islands, of whom he says: "They are a gentle, kindly, law-abiding people, who recognize that they have an honest, just and economical government. The insular government of the Virgin Islands is now and always has been a civil government, and it is, without doubt one of the most efficient, economic and benefient colonial governments to be found anywhere in the world. The organic law passed by Congress in 1917, providing for a civil government for the Virgin Island is one of the wisest laws ever enacted by that body, and any change therein is much more likely to be for worse than for better." (Columbian Press Bureau) WASHINGTON—Of interest to our 36,000 colored school teachers is the information that teachers' reading circles are conducted or sponsored, by State departments of education in twenty-seven states, and that pupils' reading circles are conducted in eighteen states. Home education Circular No. 7, on "Teachers' and Pupils' Reading Circles," issued by the U. S. Department of Interior, Bureau of Education lists the states promoting such courses and describes the conditions under which they are offered. 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. LABOR FEDERATION WARNS AGAINST 'RED' CONGRESS Says Embracing Communism Will Only Do the Negro Incalculable Harm—Be Wary of Glittering Phrases (Special to The New York Times) Washington, Aug. 9.—William Green, President of the American Federation of Labor, in warning Negro members of trade unions tonight not to attend the American Negro Labor Congress called by the Communists to meet in Chicago on Oct. 25, characterized Communism in America as "comparable to the boll weevil in the cotton fields." "Although there can not be more than a few hundred communists in the country," said Mr. Green, "they give an impression, because of their noise-making propaganda, that there are millions." Samuel Gompers, who preceded Mr. Green as President of the Federation, was one of the bitterest foes of the Communist movement and repeatedly warned the workers of the country against giving sympathetic support to the Communists. The outspoken manner in which Mr. Green endorsed the policy of Mr. Gompera attracted much interest. Mr. Green told the Negro workers that the Communists were attempting to stir up race hatred by promising them that all social, political and economic discrimination would be ended by the establishment of a Soviet Republic in America. Cites Phrases Stirring, Race Feeling In his statement Mr. Green said: "During the past few days, I have received a number of letters and telegrams asking if the American Federation of Labor approves of the American Negro Labor Congress called by the Workers (Communist) Party, to meet in Chicago Oct. 23." "The American Federation of Labor has not and will not apprise of such a congress. It will not be held to benefit the Negro. but to instil into the lives of that race the most pernicious doctrine—race hatred. "Glittering phrases are used to stir the colored men, one of them being: 'Negroes did not come into the world with saddles on their backs nor the whites with spurs on their heels.' "The Negroes are led to believe that the dark races of the world are in rebellion against the whites and that all they need to do is to form an American Labor Cngress and 'all social' political and economic discrimination' will be wiped out. "The originators of the Congress have headquarters in Chicago. They conduct a number of Communist organizations with interlocking directories that work under the direction of Moscow. "Sees Deceit in Union Appeal "Communism in America is comparable to the boll-weevil in the cotton fields. Both are importations and equally injurious. "While the convention to be held is called the American Negro Labor Congress, behind the purpose of its originators is to mislead the colored men into believing that all their grievances will be remedied by overturning the Government of the United States and establishing a soviet republic—otherwise, the dictatorship of the proletariat. Race hatred will be encouraged to bring about this end. "A number of unions composed of colored men have been deceived into sending delegates. They have been led to believe they will attend a convention of union Negroes. "The fact is that the convention was called by men who are not members of trade unions or if they are they do not attend the unions of which they are members. The organized labor movement is expelling Communists as rapidly as they are found out. "Although there can not be more than a few hundred Communists in the country; they give an impression, because of their noise-making propaganda, that there are millions. "I wish to warn all Negro members of trade unions that they are being led into a trap that will eventually be their undoing." Negro Universal King coming to rule the World Rev.

Illinois Negro Unionists Pettitioned Race Legislators (COLUMBIAN Press Bureau) CHICAGO.—The value of race representation in legislation was recently shown during a session of the Illinois Legislature, when representatives of Negro trade unions affiliated with the A. F. of L. petitioned Negro representatives in the State Legislature to support the pending injunction bill. The Negro unionists issued this appeal to check an attempt of friends of the injunction to divide the organized workers on racial lines. "An examination of the records of the American Federation of Labor will show that it has always stood for justice to the Negro worker," the colored unionists said. "Please understand that, as thoughtful members of our race, conscious of its needs and problems, we are not assuming to take the position, that prejudice and discrimination do not exist. But we insist that the way to remedy that condition, where the way to remedy that condition, where it does exist, is not by arousing additional, antagonism by taking a stand which would be injurious to your white brothers, but, rather, while insisting upon justice for the members of our own race, we also insist upon justice for all others. If it be true that, as members of the Illinois State Legislature, you have opposed labor legislation because of discrimination which has come to your attention, we earnestly hope that you change your attitude, so that while you continue to insist upon equality in the industrial field, you will at the same time do your utmost to promote legislation favorable to the working people of our State and that, you will thus help to minimize such racial prejudices and misunderstandings as now exist. Shall it be said, when the general assembly adjourns, a few weeks hence, that the injunction-limitation bill, designed to promote the freedom which we all crave, was defaced because the Negro representatives in the law-making body voted against it? We hope not. We believe not." (COLUMBIAN Press Bureau) WASHINGTON—The farm is a business, but it is more—it is a home, recently declared the Secretary of Agriculture. Continuing, he said: "We want men and women to stay on the farm, not merely because they have been able to make a living there, but because they have been profoundly satisfied with a farm life. We must have good schools, good rural churches, good roads, wholesome recreation and pleasure if farm life is to prove attractive in the highest degree. My efforts will be directed to help bring about an efficient, stable and profitable agriculture which will provide a standard of living which is in accord with American ideals. A firmly established, enlightened and prosperous land-owning population is not only a great national asset, but it is the fastest balance wheel in our civilization."
