The Negro World

LET PUT IT OVER The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro The Negro World Reaching the Mass of Negroes The Bait Advertising Medium A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race HON. MARCUS GARVEY IN INSPIRING MESSAGE SPURS THE RACE TO GREATER ENDEAVOR; ENEMY CANNOT STAND BETWEEN NEGRO AND DESTINY VOL. XIX. No. 5 Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: The news that comes to us from the distant parts of the world, and especially from the Motherland, Africa, must.be a source of gratification to all. Make no mistake about it, we have arrived. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is a power to be reckoned with, not only in America, but in Africa, and throughout the world. Nothing would take greater joy to the chancelleries of Europe than the news of the disintegration of this mighty institution of ours. But, I am glad to say, they are doomed to a gloomy existence, for the Universal Negro Improvement Association has, as I said before, already arrived. Put all the leaders in jail, burn to the ground every Liberty Hall, pass out millions of shekels to the traitorous within the ranks, and little of destructive merit will have been accomplished, for then still more fiercely will burn the fire of the quest of freedom and liberty and life that now, after seven years, rages in the breasts of men and women of the race, aye, and children, too, everywhere. Bend Every Effort We have every reason to be proud of our achievement, every reason for rejoicing over the first fruits of our handiwork in the year of grace 1925. But, remember, we have no reason to rest on our oars, to be conceited and complacent. The work has only just begun. Not only have we to continue bending every effort toward the realization of our program of a free and redeemed Africa, but we must be constantly on guard, keep ceaseless vigil, night and day, to the end that the enemy shall not pass and not one inch of the ground so laboriously and valiantly won be yielded up. Something Worth Defending The poor man leaves his home, caring little whether the door is locked or not. But the millionaire engages a detective agency to guard him and his. The moral is clear: Those who have something take every precaution against loss. So is it with the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We have something at stake, we have a reputation to protect, a priceless reason to preserve, and it behoves each and NEW YORK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1925 HARVEY IN INSPIRED ACE TO GREATER ENI AND BETWEEN NEG GREAT LEADER IN ELOQUENT MESSAGE SAYS U. N. I. A. HAS ARRIVED NOTHING CAN QUENCH FREEDOM'S FIRES NOW BURNING BRIGHTLY IN THE HEARTS OF MEN AND WOMEN EVERYWHERE EACH AND EVERY MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATION IS WARD OF A GREAT TRUST BIDS RACE KEEP STEADFASTLY MARCHING TO THE GOAL SO THAT SOME DAY THEY CAN WITH REASON SING, "AFRICANS NEVER SHALL BE SLAVES" trust and defend it with all that in us lay, as the Almighty would have us do. A Fruitless Experiment Yes, I am glad they know and realize the Universal Negro Improvement Association is a power to be reckoned with. I rejoice that the Association, of which I have the honor of being the founder, made such rapid progress that in a few brief years it was thought necessary to try the experiment of placing me behind prison bars. We have started to demonstrate to the world the power and potency of the Negro. They may laugh over the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and prate about impossibility, but, let me tell you, in another twelve months there is going to be a great world conference, and the New Negro, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, our program of, and labors for, a free and redeemed Africa will be the chief topic of that conference. Cannot Lynch a People If they think that 400,000,000 colored men and women are going to let the rest of the world crush them, murder them, burn and lynch them forever, they make a big mistake; for if we must be lynched; if we must be crushed, we have decided that we be lynched or crushed 400,000,000 strong. And you know what an easy task that will be! Try today to lynch 400,000,000 people; and man will be on the road to his Maker, leaving this world to the lower animals. The Negro is in a desperate, serious mood, and I am only sorry that we have so many weak- faced, apologetic Negroes among us. If we could get these weak - kneed philosophers, these cap-in-hand "protectors of the people" to be men for one brief hour and stand behind the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we would not have to sue as suppliants for that which is our due—we would be able to demand, and it would be given unto us. Trying to Divide Men and women of African blood! men and women of America, men and women of the West Indies, do not lose courage! The "Black Peril" is here! Every time you read the other fellow's newspaper and you see the words "Black Peril," murmur a prayer of thankfulness and be heartened for the task. A better day is coming, and though the pressure seems severe now, and though conditions seem difficult, there is a silver lining behind it all. With a ruthless hand they kept us down and we struggled to escape. The more we fought and struggled, the more frantic and vengeful they became. But we stood our ground; we realized the strength that lay in unity. And now they smile! With blandishments and subtle propaganda they seek to divide us. Resolve that these tactics shall also fail. They must fail. The Universal Negro Improvement Association with the help of God Almighty, under the leadership of Jesus Christ, and through your wholehearted support, shall make men everywhere admit that through it, and through it only, lies salvation for the Negro. I thank you for the help you have given us in this great movement of ours. I thank you for the financial support you have given and which has enabled us to arrive where we are today. Continue the good work, men and women. Be the road ever so rough, keep steadfastly up the heights, and God will bless us and enable us speedily to realize our fondest hopes and cherished dream of a free and redeemed Africa, where forever shall float in the breeze the Red, Black and Green. Then shall, we, Negroes, be able with reason to sing, not "Britons never shall be slaves," as thousands of us still do, but "Africans never, never shall be slaves." I have the honor to be 'LIBERTY OR DEATH,' SAYS KRIM IN MESSAGE TO FRENCH ABD-EL-KRIM IN LETTER TO FRENCH CHAMBER PUBLISHED IN PARIS TELLS TRUTH ABOUT FRENCH AGGRESSION Peace Mission Treated with Contempt; Marshal Lyautey Despised Rights of Little Nation Riffs Have Resolved to Die in Their Fight for Independence Rather Than Submit A letter which is said to bear every evidence of authenticity as emanating from the hand of Abd-al-Krimei "President of the Rifian Republic," has been received in Paris, translated and circulated among the papers of the capital. So far as is known only the Socialist organ, L'Humanite, has published it. This isidd completely on August 21. The letter is addressed to the Chamber of Deputies, but no account has reached this country that it has been read before that body. According to the letter of Abd-el-Krim the French were the aggressors reinforcing their position on the Ouergha and advancing into the region, of El-Jaya and, the Bim-Zeroualis, and establishing there fortified posts. In remonstrance he had dispatched a mission to Gez, which had been treated with contempt by Marshal Lautey. Preceding these events he had sent his brother and several ministers to Paris, to negotiate with the government. At that time, late in 1927, it had been announced from Morocco, that Abd-el-Krim was seeking to save France make a declaration of neutrality so long as the Riff-Spanish conflict should last. The presence of this mission in Paris was officially denied there, and although an account of its object was sent to certain papaors in France and abroad, it is asserted that no attention was paid to it. The letter admits that the mission was not recognized officially, which probably served as the basis of the French official denial, but it asserts that the mission talked "indiscriminately" with the Government of M. Poincaré and corresponded with M. Palainle. Repudiates Charges Against Riffians The letter also denies or repudiates several charges that had been made against Abd-el-Krimei, his government, troops and the conduct of the war by Marshal Lyautey, through French observers in Morocco; both, official and otherwise. It praises American correspondents for their accounts. The full text of the letter is as follows: "We have, the honor to submit to you this memorandum addressed to the Chamber of Deputies of the French nation. Its object is to express to the honorable representatives our respectful sentiments, but also to inform them of our profound regret in regard to the imputations which have been attributed to us by his Excellency the Marshal Lyautey and also by the French press, which has spread numberless rumors with the idea of discrediting our character and honor in your eyes. "In truth, it is excessively painful for jis to read in the Paris papers concerning the roles played by the principal statesmen of your country, the shameful denials of their conversations and correspondence with us, which included their refusal to accord us an interview at Paris in 1923. The truth was quite the contrary; we have corresponded with M. Painleve and indirectly conversed with M. Polincare, expressing to both our friendly sentiments toward France which, to our mind, ought to be the first to support our claims and recognize our national rights, without which it is impossible for us to live. "Moreover, we have on many occa- ations corresponded with Marshal Laute- ry; we have sent messengers to him whose sole object was to reach an agreement. We highly esteem the marshal and his government of French Morocco; unfortunately he has not designed to listen to us. nor has he received our messengers except with contempt. Discouragement From the Marshal "From the very first time that we managed to get in touch with the marshal it has seemed to us that he has not regarded us with benevolent eyes and that in spite of all our efforts of conciliation and our eager desire to remain in good relations with the French Republic, he has treated us with contempt. "When, at the beginning of last year, the knowledge came to us of the decision of Marshal Lyaute to increase his forces on the Ouegaer, we dispatched a messenger to Pax in order to ask an explanation of him. But the result of this action was negative, just as had been the results of all our former efforts along pacific lines, in our conversations and correspondence with 174 ministers. The French army advanced in the region of El-Jaya and the Beni-Zerouala and established fortified posts there. Nevertheless, we still had hopes of maintaining peace down to the very moment of this year, when we perceived that Marshal Lyaute had the intention of invading the Riff and that he had the ambition to annex our country to the French zone. During all this time Marshal Lyaute had not ceased to exile the tribes against us and to encourage them to attack us, directly. These acts of the marshal left us no other alternative than to take arms against your soldiers and to defend the liberty of our country, just as we have always defended it. Marshall Lyaute, despairing the rights of a little nation, tried to overcome it by force, forging that victory comes in defense of their honor. But time will disperse the clouds of falsehood and the sun of trust will triumph in the end. "We are accused of being rebels, but we are fighting for our own country. Still, only yesterday, as it were, were not you, yourselves, the first to take up arms and hurt yourselves forward for the defense of the freedom of your soil and your birthright? Want Opportunity to Develop Re sources "We are accused of having taken to war as a pastime, but such calumnies will not stand the test of examination. We proclaim our desire to live in peace and to develop the resources of our country for the benefit of the inhabitants. "We sent our brother and our minister to Paris because it is the cradle of liberty, the capital of equality, the mother of modern civilization; and because we hoped that the noble French nation, which has so often protected the weak and the afflicted, would recognize the right of the Rift to exist as a free nation. Our object, our principle, our ideal is peace and independence. "All the wars in which we have been engaged in the past and the one in which we are engaged today have been imposed upon us. Scarcely were we on the point of liberating ourselves from Spain than we were attacked by France. We now address ourselves to the French nation in order that she may stop this insane massacre of a little nation which is resolved to die rather than submit. Our country has always been the victim of secession and arsonous report. We do not have the newspapers through which to present our cause and tell the truth; the few American correspondents who have visited our country have confirmed our own declarations to the effect that we have neither foreign nor Bolshevist aid in our organization. The Keran and Bolshevism cannot travel together. We and we alone administer and control our affairs—both civil and military. CALCULATED LIES ABOUT THE RACE CANNOT DAUNT White Writera Without Any Sense of Humor Make Vain Efforts to Instil Inferiority Complex in the Negro—Personal Dialike a Motive Some three years ago when I was engaged in active work for the U. N. I. A. out in a big 'mid-western city. I wrote a farce and presented it with local talent. The title was "A Pack of Lies." The idea was not my own—I got it from something I heard in the West Indies many years ago about a man who tried on a bet to speak the absolute truth. He won the bet, but he lost much more in the way of friendships. He even lost his fiancee. The painstim who sang "all men are liars" was certainly speaking a "beakful," for with all due respect to the cherrytree business I don't believe there exists or can exist an absolutely truthful person. I am a pretty good liar myself, but I never lie without some delinquently (to me) good motive. In this article I propose to deal with the lies turned out by Caucasian propagandists for our consumption. Propagandist, as I see it in this case, is not merely the professional public man of the Negro-hating clan nor the wilful distorter of history as it affects the Negro. My infliction is more sweeping. It includes every mother's son (and daughter) of all the great army of scrubbiers (white) that for any purpose whatever breaks into print. I have not yet seen anything to warrant detriment by Heywood Brown of the New York World, but I am not going to sing his praises yet. Some Well-Known Tricks You see. I haven't read all he has written and, besides, I've been fooled before. I said in the title that lying was a matter of motive, and I suppose my impatient readers are already saying that the motive in playing up our crimes and soft-pedaling our virtues is too obvious for further explanation. But is it? Frankly, I am at times very puzzled. There are some tricks of the game well known to all of us, such as the dialect trick, the good old mammy trick, the crap-shooting trick, the ignorant preacher trick, the fondness-for-long-words trick, to mention only a few of the better-known ones. These more well-known turns are a matter of tradition. The people that use them are mostly in debt to fiction writers of a generation or so age for their tosh. They are analogous to the popular lies about the wrong number from telephone operators and the gum-chewing proclivities of stenographers, which we all recount but don't believe. And as instruments for imposing the inferiority complex they are as effective as a celluloid shirt in Hades. When, however, writers such as Octavius Roy Cohen and Irwin S. Cobb put a粗 grammar into the mouths of their college-bred characters one is lost, in a maze of conjecture. Who is being fooled? Not the writers, who to have written on the Negro must first have formed a wide acquaintance with individuals of that group. The readers these writers would have among Negroes would not be affected because they would fail to recognize, these strange creatures of fiction in the actual group-life. A certain type of Negro ignorantus could no doubt be impressed, but this is not the type that reads mazelines. Europeans? They have mostly treated with us as individuals, and with the exception of columnists are inclined to judge us more by the length of our pocketbooks than by the arbitrary standards of color or race. Personal Spite and Dialike The only possible cause I can imagine is that there is a personal spite in the background and that the writers take this means of expressing their dislike. I have merely selected Cobb and Cohen because of their relative Whose Home Are You Buying? Why buy a home for you indulged if you can buy one for your pet? Come to Japantown.

The Precious Nordic Has No Monopoly Of the Excellences Yellow haired, pale blue eyed persons who think the Nordic race the only resal will be interested in the recent "flyweight" championship prize-fight in Los Angeles. Frankie Gomar, champion, was defeated by Fidel Labarba. Nothing Nordic about THOSE names. The lightweight champion, Benny LeLand, is a Jaw. The greatest of all fighters at his-weight, Joe Game, was a Negre. The poor Nordics can't even claim Jack Dempsey, heavyweight champion. There is red indian blood, which is Mongolian, not Nordic, mixed with the Dempsey bleed. No race has a monopoly of excellence, even in prize-fighting. importance. All white writers are more or less guilty. That seems an overstatement, and in isolated cases it is. There are the courageous few like Volney, Ollymer, Phillips and Morel—needles lost in a haystook of prejudices, And, of course, there are many others. But even among our self-styled friends of the white variety are to be found many detractors and subtle upholder of the status quo. Many a time have I taken up a work by some" supposedly broad-minded white ash read page after page avidly to pull up finally with a jerk because I had run into some of the stuff one expects from such avowed enemies as the late unlamented Tom Watson. The fact that it is glossed over and toned down adds to rather than reduces its distastefulness. It gives you the feeling of having bitten into a nasty fat maggot while eating some delicious fruit. And after much reading I have become so skeptical that I start most "friendly" books by scanning the pages in search of these literary warts. There is a penalty on reading for the Negro unless he sticks to the too-restricted field of racial literature. He buys magazines and books with his good money only, to find gratuitous insults where he least expects them. How Tarrykell Fall There is Albert Payson Terhune, of dog-story fame. He is a good writer and I loved him because he loved dogs, as I do myself. I read with interest everything he wrote until I came upon some obnoxious stuff about a Negro housebreaker in one of his tales. I don't read him any more. All of them seem prone, these white Knights of the Inknot, to lie about the Negro. The movies also contribute their share. Of the hundreds of pictures I've seen not one ever presented a Negro in any role that was not either ridiculous or criminal. More lies that are believed neither by tellers nor hearers, since not even the most biased Caucasian could believe that our numbers are evenly divided between rogues and buffoons. Even scientists prostitute their craft by uttering half-truths and absolute lies to the detriment of our group. All this lying is a question of motive and we none of us are fooled by it. But unmasking deceit is not the end of it. To do nothing about it is to admit that some of it is, after all, true. And our little voices of protest are so overwhelmingly drowned out by the anvil chorus of the white majority that they count for very little. You may not continuously accept this constant repetition of lies, but it is a fact proven by psychologists that it nevertheless affects your mind. The only way to successfully combat it is to "get out from under." In other words, build our own political, economic, rabial and literary structures. I just now gave myself an example of the power of constant suggestion. I remarked that it looked a black day—just the kind of remark I would have criticised from some one else. Still, they hay Garvey is crazy. I wonder! Col Charles Sweeney, an Irishman, has thrown down the gauntlet to Africans the world over. as an African I lift my voice in protest against America's unofficial participation in the French war upon my African kindred. In this twentieth century when oppressed humanity the world over is clamoring for self-determination—the right to govern and direct their way as does best, free of the ruthless exploitation and overarching of the Anglo-Saxon, American, the hope of the world, the spokesman of oppressed humanity, the champion of international and universal justice to today joining hands with the despotic and imperialistic nations of Europe. Small America snuggles to the imperialistic greed of the defunct nations of Europe under the guise of "White America." Against this impending must be lifted up the cry and brand of "Africa for the Africans," especially in this great community. For further data and description of African history and culture the Department of History and Culture has good access to the vast archive of African history and culture. 'LIBERTY LOVERS' GONE A-GUNNING AGAINST RIFFS No Shadow of Excuse for American Airmen-Fighting on the Side of Imperialism Unspeakably Dirty Business, Says Pittsburgh Post We have seen no word of protest on the part of the hired American humanitarians against the participation of American airmen on the side of France in her war against the Rift Republic. No, the hired gentry—and ladies, too—who are making such a noise concerning American's duty to the world, to the cause of international peace, good will and what hot besides, are too faithful to their imperial masters to utter even a syllable in condemnation of the gunmen—for that is what they really are—who have enlisted on the side of France in the Moroccan war. We are glad to note, however, that at least one newspaper has had the manliness to speak out in this matter. From the editorial page of the Seattle Union Record we clip the following manly and truly American strictures: "For Frenchmen to fight in Morocco there may be a shade of excuse. For American adventurers as aviators in French service there is none at all. Not sentiment, for sentiment should 'be on the side of liberty, rather than imperialism. Not adventure, for there are other and nobler escapes from the menotony of clivization than murder. And for these 'American soldiers of fortune, war in Morocco is plain murder. But because it is a wholesale murder it will more probably lead them to 'glory' than to the police court." These are strong and outspoken words, but not a bit too strong or too outspoken. No American worth his salt can fail to blush with shame at the spectacle of men calling themselves citizens of the Republic of Washington and Jefferson and Lincoln hiring themselves to a foreign power to slay poor folk who have done the republic no wrong, but on the contrary wish it well—poor folk who are trying against terrible odds, and with a tenacity that the men of '78 would have lauded, to rid their country of foreign domination and to be masters in their own land. The participation of these heartless individuals in the Rift war is an outrageous insult to the American air force is a grave injustice to the republic, is a shocking spectacle that should be brought to an end without further delay. "What was once a tiny hamlet with a few houses 'huddled together.' . . . is tonight a ruin testifying to American accuracy in air bombing," says a dispatch from Fax, Morocco, dated Saturday, which goes on to tell of the success of American fliers fighting for the French in blasting Riffian, towns on a recent raid. And what were once leaving mothers, and bright, beautiful prattling babies, and admirable, harmless old men and women, the disipatch might have added but doomt, are tenight mangled corpses, testifying to American—shell we say "callousness?" No; for the American gorge rises against that kind of warfare, the American heart grows. hot with anger against it, the American voice protests against and repudiates the slaughter of the innocents as not American, as the very reverse of American. The airman flying as the American Escadrille and dropping bombs on villages, killing non-combatants and destroying homes, diagree the country of their birth. They do not represent America. Why are they fighting the Riflans in the first place? The United States has no quarrel with these Berber tellermen, whose only offense against the French and Spanish is that they are trying to expel the foreign usurpers from their land. Probably the Riflans in the long run will be bitterly under European rule then as an independent nation. They are a small but bourgeois people with customs and customs of which civilization disapproves. Still they may point to the killing of their woman and children by the airmen as an example of barbarism on the part of so-called civilized people. The American nation traditionally has always felt geopolitically towards a country striving to throw off a foreign yoke. The American soldiers would have been acting more in keeping with the spirit of their native land if they had volunteered to fight for the Riflans instead of against them. These soldiers have been unwilling to fight and always go to the aid of those brave patriots preparing for their military service. But always in fighting gentler or more patriotic forces in painting them any form of humanity. In the management of their The American Negro Labor Congress is accused by President Green as a Communist movement, and he warns the Negro to stay away, especially those who are members of the A. F. of L. If they attend, the Congress Oct. 25. he says, they will be exiled from the organization. The Negro should look upon Mr. Green as a hyphoric or a lunatic. Since when did Mr. Green take upon himself to advise Negroes what to do? For instance, in these United States when Negroes are being lynched, Jim-crowed and disfranchised, burned at the stake and all the rest of the evils; Mr. Green is silent. One of the greatest crimes that could ever be committed to a human being was committed to Mrs. Turner in 1911 in the State of Georgia. Mrs. Turner's husband was lynched and Mrs. Turner said, if she knew who lynched her husband, she would take out a warrant for them. A group of white Christians and members of the upper class, who were coming from church in their automobiles, caught Mrs. Turner, tied her by her legs to a tree and poured gasoline on her, then applied a match to her clothes. Mrs. Turner was eight and one-half months with-child. She was The African Possesses An Uncanny Power For Judging Men The African seems to possess an uncanny power of judging strangers. This, one may suppose, is a more necessary quality for a primitive people than for a civilized nation with a highly developed system of intelligence service, since the safety of the tribe depended on such skill. Still the possession of a faculty for seeing through the stranger and assessing his characteristics is one to be envoiled. I do not wish to imply that individually they all possess this power in marked degree, but collectively they seem to be able to "sie-up" a stranger in a remarkably short time. This is evidenced in the case of the white man by the fact that a new arrival will be given a nickname by the natives almost immediately on arrival; and if uncomplimentary it is kept for use behind his back. When one stumbles on the name and discovers its meaning and full significance—often an obscure native term—it usually proves to be descriptive of some weakness of character which to us was not apparent till we had had long and intimate acquaintance with the individual in question; the natives seldom, if ever, make a mistake in their judgment. Open Negro Art Theatre, Four Plays Presented CHICAGO. Sept. 5.—A Negro art theatre, the first of its kind, according to the founders, was opened tonight at 35th-street and Indiana avenue. Four one-act plays were presented by a company of Negroes, all trained herd. The new theatre has been named the Shadows by its founder, Francis L. Holmes, a Negro artist. "This is a unique experiment in Negro art," said Holmes. "We are trying to do what-the Irish players are doing in Dublin, and the Moscow players in Moscow, to produce actual scenes out of the life of the people." The program includes: "A Cabaret Girl," by Fenton Johnson; "Chi Fu," a Chinese tragedy, by Juatema Jr.: "Flying Rumors," by A. B. Becomthier, and "A Bit of Yukon," by Raleigh Johnson. British Rubber Restrictions Forcing Up Prices Here WASHINGTON—Representatives of rubber interests today conferred with Secretary of State Kollogg, regarding British export restrictions on commodity in East Asia and other producing sections under British control. Secretary Kollogg declined to make any statement regarding conference. New British policy has resulted, in rapidly increasing prices of rubber in U.S. and vigorous protests were made to Secretary Kollogg today. Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN Say "Bayer" - in 10U New Cotton Newsprint Milk Laundry Dishwashing burned until her abdomen burst, and the child fell out and cried twice. The mob stepped up and crushed the child's brains out. Mr. Green, what step did you or Mr. Gompers or any other official? In your organization take towards this dreadful act on the part of these civilized Christian men and women? At the same time, we had the late ex-President. Woodrow Wilson telling us how cruel the Germans were towards the Belgian women and children. But not a word of sympathy towards poor defenseless Mrs. Turner. Negroes should remember that this did not happen in Belshavik Russia, but in civilized America. In 1918, in the State of Arkansas, just after the great war for democracy, black men were held on the farms as peons, they got together in one of their churches to organize so that they would be in a position to protect their interests. They were met by aoptos of the U. S. Government with shot guns and were murdered in cold blood. It happens that the national organizer of the American, Negro Labor Congress is a member of the Communist Party, but that does not signify that the congress is a Communist movement no more than you could call the American Federation of Labor a Christian movement, simply because Mr. Green is a member of the Protestant church. National Guardsmen Parade as Kluxers, Commander Lenient WASHINGTON. D. C., August 31—District of Columbia national guardmen, in summer camp in Virginia, defied the orders issued by their commander and paraded in white robes and masks with a fiery cross, right up to the commander's tent. He called out the guard, but there was no guard, The parade, likewise, melted away. When he searched a number of tents he found the guardmen apparently asleep, but fully clothed. Instead of arresting them, he announced that defiance of his anti-klan parade orders "must stop."

YOU HEAR MANY MEN AND WOMEN SAY: "Oh, to passess that buoyancy of youth! To the spirit of fun and love-making again. To feel the fires of passion burning within my soul—the same as in the days of my budding, bubbling youth!" These blessings that you once HAD can be FELT again by taking Glant-Ox. Glant-Ox is a gland tonic possessing all the necessary elements such as glands, iron and magnesium. You can nurture her herb that restores the "Chemical Balance" of the blood and nervous glandular system. The glands are the batteries of the entire nervous system. Medicines and drugs do NOT help or cure the glands. Germany and Austria proved. It is an established fact that glands of the sheep and the ox contain the very elements necessary for the glands of the human body. It is also the glands with new energy, thereby penetrating new strength into the very interior of all the muscles and blood corpuscles, giving 'new life'—or in other words, giving 'new life'—to the tissues in the skeleton to endure hard work and warrior, with a light heart.

He and Garvey had, he sajd, locked -horns on the question of the black race making a contributirm to the world as a people, and nothing conld separate them. -Fvery rate. he was con- .vinced, had a mission in the world which it was their duty toedulfill and he was confident the black race would rise oft of ignorance and slavery to the highest pinnacle of American and world freedom. “Build thee most stately mansions, O. my soul,” he quoted from Emerson! concluding an instructive address, as The vast audience cheered him to the echo. | Followine isa report of the addresses elgg REGISTER ‘NOW “AND START A BUSINESS COURSE.. .. \”~ At the Opening of the Ea Term MRAITHWAITE SHORTHAND & BUSINESS SCHOOL - "89 SEVENTH AVE.

LET'S PUT IT OVER WIERE THE VISION OF SERVICE LEADS MOST people live in the past. They have no present and no future. They see through a glass darkly, and they see only confusion. They have no vision and no sense of service. They may be said to belong to the quick and dead, those who are dead although they live, and stumble through life without any definite purpose, and, therefore, accomplish nothing of advantage to themselves or their people in the times in which they live. All the world about them may be on the move, the times may be grand and awful, full of miracles of all sorts, such as were never before in the history of mankind, but these stupid people, these quick and the dead are not affected, are not in the least moved by it all. They stumble along through life accepting it all without in the least understanding anything. Marcus Garvey has vision and the appreciation of the value of service. He sees far into the mystery of things and appraises service at its proper value. He knows that service leads to results, and he has taught many to see visions and to dedicate themselves to service for themselves and for the Negro race; for, if a person serve not himself wisely and thus be in a position to help himself how shall he help others, how shall he help the cause nearest his heart? In his front page article in the last issue of The Negro World, Mr. Garvey had the following to say on "The Vision of Service": This organization is not the property of any single individual. When you support this organization, you are supporting yourselves. You are endeavoring to build for your children, for the posterity of the race. If you are to succeed in this great aim, you must have plenty of backbone; plenty of power to resist disappointments, failures, ridicule, or anything else with which you may be confronted in the pursuit of your program. Men and women who have a vision of service have no time to waste in crying over discouragements. That is the first and necessary lesson to learn, that the Universal Negro Improvement Association does not belong to any one member but to all of the members, and that one member cannot make it effective in the work planned for it by its great founder, but that all of the members can do so by mutual understanding and cooperation. "They have done so thus far and are inspired to continue to do so by the success they have had. As Mr. Garvey wisely says, "Men and women who have a vision of service have no time to waste in crying over discouragements." Of course not. Discouragements should be regarded as obstacles to be met and overcome and not to be run away from and to be defeated in the great purpose by. They know that the vision of service, with the service rendered according to the vision, leads to success, and success in any scheme of life is the main objective reasonably aimed at. If you have not got the vision of service seek after and find it. You can't be a good and useful member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association if you are lacking in the vision of service. THE AGONIES OF ANOTHER COAL STRIKE THE country is again in the agonies of another coal-strike. Those of us, and they are, most of the people, who suffered through the agonies of the coal strike of a-year ago, when lack of heat for home and office purposes caused untold suffering, sickness and death, look with dread upon the possibility of a protracted strike of the coal miners and a shortage of heat in the homes, and the shortage of employment which must follow a shortage of fuel for manufacturing purposes. It seems inconceivable that 158,000 coal miners and some twenty coal mine owners should be able to cut off the fuel supply of 101,000,000 people, with power nowhere lodged in the laws of the land to prevent or to remedy such a condition, but that is the condition of affairs. The people are at the mercy of the mine owners and workers, and they will remain so until such time as the people assert their power of ultimate ownership in the coal mines and insist that they be operated for the public benefit and not for the benefit of a few mine owners and workers. Matters are coming to that head, as the people see clearly that if they do not safeguard their own interests in the coal supply the owners and workers of the mines will not do so. "It is a matter of wages with us," says John W. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, and "it is a matter of dividends, or profits, with us." say the owners of the mines. The compulsory cash, without whose tolerance and patronage the owners and workers of the miners would be helpless, have yet to say what is in their hands. When they do say in it will sound like that: "We are going to change the land we need if we have to confess the coal and production through government agency production is thus. Every person and every higher than it is now. Western and eastern of the single army remained higher reserves in wagons and machines supplied. And, yet another army is established and machines supplied to equip the public Naval fleet. The states Mine Workers demand a 10 per cent. increase in tonnage rates, $1 a day, for daymen, the check off and minor changes in working conditions. The owners ratly refuse all of the demands of the workers. The average annual earnings of miners is $1,958; the earnings of the owners is out of all proportion to the capital invested and a proper interest upon it, and yet there is no law to compel the two-groups to equalize the interest on capital and the wages of workers, so that there should be some parity between the two, and some measure of protection for consumers who have to pay for it all in cold dollars and cents, much of it being pure graft. There should not be any private monopoly in the air, land and water. They belong to all of the people, and the people cannot live and prosper without free access and use of them; therefore, the people, through their legislative and administrative agencies, should control and regulate the use of the air, land and water power of the nation. DECREASES IN AFRICAN AND WEST INDIAN IMMIGRATION THE paragraph reproduced in the last week's issue of The Negro World hearing upon African and West Indian immigration was not only of the greatest importance to our readers but very significant. We reproduce the paragraph here, because of its importance and because many of our readers may have not read it. It is as follows: WASHINGTON—Only 791 native Africans emigrated to the United States during the year ended June 30, 1925, as compared with 12,243 during the year, 1924. This is a decrease of 11,452. The number of African departures from this country also showed a decrease, being 1,094 for the year, 1925, as against 1,449 for 1924. West Indian immigrants also showed a marked drop in 1925 to 325, approximately one-seventh of 1,215, the 1924 total; and departures for 1925 were 345, as compared with 422 for 1924. In all, the decline in African and West Indian immigration fell below the average sustained by the total for all foreign countries. It will be observed that no explanation is given for these decreases. The bare fact is given. But there is a reason. Before the new immigration law went into effect restricting immigration, there was a very general flow of immigrants from the West Indies, who had only to register here as coming from their West Indian habitats. It was that way with Africa also. Under the new law the immigration apportionment is by nationality. Each nation is allowed so many entrants each year upon a certain basis. How many shall leave the British possessions, therefore, is determined by the Home Office in London. The policy of Great Britain is to discourage its Negro subjects from having the colonies. It also discourages American Negroes from going to the West Indies and African colonies. It is difficult, therefore, for a Negro to leave or go into any British colony. The number of persons allotted to Great Britain for entry into the United States is thus by the British policy restricted to the minimum in the African and West Indian allotments. The matter goes further. The authorities in New York will not give a Negro going from United States, freedom to visit Africa at all and are very particular in giving such to visit the West Indies. The explanation appears to be that Great Britain regards the American Negro as a dangerous person and, therefore, has adopted a policy to keep him out of the West Indies and Africa, where he may stir up the natives to agitate against British misrule. Negro sailors in the Royal navy are not allowed shore leave when in African ports, we understand, and many such sailors have written The Negro World of their personal experiences in this matter; and the rough treatment they have received by British officials in the African ports when they have been given shore leave. We understand; also, that the Latin American countries have instructed their consular officers in the United States not to vise the passports of Negroes desiring to visit those countries as tourists or prospective settlers. All of this makes a very aggravating condition and one that the Universal Negro Improvement Association regards as a grave injustice which we should all fight to overcome. Negroes should have the same freedom as others to go and come from one country to another with no other conditions than those which apply to other face groups. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS We are satisfied that the major portion of the little and big troubles that come to us are the result of misunderstandings; or in other words, too much static. You do something we do not understand, and we immediately charge you with being crooked, or if we are inclined to be halfway fair about it, we at least ascribe to you wrong motives. We have made a rule, and this one we are going to live up to: We are never going to charge anybody with anything until we thoroughly understand the situation.—Denver Star. The tragedy of too late is the tragedy of the negligence of the performance of duty. This awful cry has come too often from out of the despair of too many human beings whose consciousness of their failure to do their duty came too late to remedy their breakdown to themselves, to society, to God. Warnings, multifarious warnings, hase at all times and are now shown along the passway of human journeyings to guard men from the curse that is resident in their non-performance of duty and their ultimate cry of woe that utters from the depths of the tragedy of too late.—National Baptist Voice. Negro youth, each day nearing a sternous life of double competition, within and without the race, owe a special duty to themselves and their racial seniors to ground themselves in the virtues of academic studies State and public are working hand in hand in supplying funds and equipment for this training; and whether leaning towards the trade, industries, or minor gainful employment, Youth should, for his and her sake, drink deeply of the spring of knowledge. Particularly, Youth should make sure that he has drained the public school courses up to the gates of the university.—East Tennessee News. There is a difference between education and training. This is not always understood. Some people are perfectly trained but poorly educated and, conversely, some people have an extensive education but no training. Training means proper knowledge and efficiency in your chosen calling, but education has reference to the development of your whole personality.—Chicago Enterprise. While we have much complaint with respect to the treatment we are receiving by other races, we must know, that we are not going any faster, or any further than our character and ability permits. Let us demonstrate in the things purely, our own, and show our worth and honesty to those who trust us—birmingham Rescuer. We are told that opportunity is like the man who has no hair on the back of his head—it must be grappled ere it paces on it is gone forever. This may be true or it may not be true. Opportunities are many. They pour a consistent stream into our eyes. If it is not or can bind another in constantly knocking at our door. The varieties are many. In them may be found good and evil; right and wrong; fortune and fate. Therefore, it is no use you be on the mind with a discriminating mind. Be prepared for the best when it comes. The method of preparation has not many, wandering in the Cork where opportunity is help themselves and earn success—of London Argus. The race must advance if it is to advance at all, by enriched action. To have a big business we must have big business men. But if every man who has achieved any measure of success is to be attained by the official participants who have never accomplished anything themselves, but which ever try to impress the attention of those who are doing all the things of life then the race's hope for a brighter future of necessity will. But if men men and are going the big things in the community then they do not and should receive the unanticipated impact of the race. In this action that will call CaliforniaVideo.

European Mistreatment Of Native Africans Making for Trouble (From The Chelsea American) While our daily papers have kept lading out to us a lot of rily news about the Prince of Wales' visit to South Africa, they have been careful to abstain from even hinting at anything that would tend to create disquiet as to the real conditions existing in that part of the empire. Less of all do they ever elude to the changes going on among the native races in regard to their own conditions; and their relations toward the dominating whites. The period since the end of 1918 especially has seen remarkable Navarret sentiment among the more advanced among them, and the expression of it in papers published in the English and Bantu languages that deal with all the phases of their social, economic and political life. One that drifted our way showed a wonderful group of the causes underlying the social and economic inferiority of the position of the native races as compared with the whites, and when it appears that the work was not that of professional agitators but of thoughtful and educated men dealing reasonably with their subjects, it became clear that light was breaking into the future of the African peoples. The paper we specially refer to was the "Workers' Herald," published at Cape Town, in English and Bantu, and gently out by natives. It described itself as the organ of the industrial and Commercial Workers' Union, an organisation that started originally in Cape Town and is now extending all over the South African Union where natives are employed. Among its departments is a board of arbitration, the executive member of which is a native with a college degree of B. A. Among its many complaints against the treatment of native labor is that it receives only 50 cents a day where the white man got over $4; that it has to feed on "meal pap" and sleep on cement floors like animals Native women working in mine hospitals get from $ to $5.00 a month, and no certificates of competence can be issued to Asiatics or native Africans in certain occupations however well qualified. This is only a sketch of the grievances complained of, and it is difficult to see what remedy the cabled smiles of the Prince could bring—to such conditions, though he may have reconciled, the Boers to the murder of their women and children in Kitchener's concentration camps. Another paper we have seen that is published in the two languages in "The African World" of Cape Town. This paper enters more into the racial question and its political aspects, and treats the Africans of all races as a whole. This creates a wide field of controversy, covering populations of regions like the Congo, where "Christian and Civilized Belgians" encouraged the collection of rubber by cutting off the right hands of those who failed to perform their allotied tasks, and those that have arrived At a degree of progress that finds them turping out men qualified in various branches of science, in administrative affairs and in general civil and military capacities and, in the professions. At a period like the present, when we see the self-vaunted superior white races of the world apparently preparing under the influences of money and commercial greed, and political and racial hate, for mutual destruction and the extermination of what they are pleased to call the "inferior" peoples, it is satisfactory to know that the inferiors are qualifying with superior Intelligence and higher aims to enter on enjoyment of the inheritance the others will leave behind them. HEALTH TOPICS By DR. B. S. HERGEN Of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association MEN! LIBTEN! "Women make earnest carry double burden," reads a headline in the Nation's Health. "The Department of Labor made an investigation of 4,000 married women who were employed. "Nearly two-thirds of them were mothers of children under five years." Half of them were earning money to contribute toward the support of the family by keeping boarders or doing laundry, etc., which allowed them to watch over the children. The other half worked in factories and mills. "One of every five worked at night and took care of the children during the day." OUCH! Relatives and landlads and kind neighbors were pressed into service to watch the children sometimes, and where it could be so arranged, the father and mother worked one at night and the other in the day time so that the children could be supervised and rest obtained, too. But one in twenty bred someone to do this duty while the mother went out to earn that fee and more besides. Most of the mothers left home at six or seven in the morning and prior to their leaving had washed and dressed and fed the family and prepared the luncheon. ... Do you dream that these women want but do work for the "pure consciousness" of fighting men in their field of activ- ity—the industrial world? I do not. How many of these women do you below the subway cash, burritos, and how many of them are you writing to to help by offering them the courtesy of a moll? It may but happen you know they spell out more than to get down when they get home, nor that well as one supposes, the pushing the children to but, the stumbling hard, to wash a few Chinas or Iranians, the fresh, fresh which men affection, to chasten when they return after the time book. They would not call for it. They would good opinion. They would no or they would not be doing double duty or hump—having a financial account or my money—having to support it. How would that? How would it? We are indebted to The African World, the organ of the Cape African National Congress, for the following translation into an African dialect of the Hon. Marcus Garvey article on "African Fundamentalism," written recently in prison. It will be remembered that this article appeared in four consecutive issues of The Negro World. It is being translated, the African World informs us, into 800 African dialects for the information of our brethren throughout the continent of Africa. We reproduce this translation out of a desire to co-operate with The African World in its laudable effort to assist the Universal Negro Improvement Association in carrying the gospel of Garveyism to the remotest parts of Africa; (TRANSLATED BY B, NDOBE) HALE—Talima koranteng e vake e fitileng, le tla fumana le-qepheng laboraro lengolo leo re le ngletsoeng kë Morena Mohlompehi Margus Garvey a kopa hore lengolo lena le hlahisoe ka ho tlala lo phetheileng le be lefetoloe ka ka liquo tse 800 tsa lefatse.

APT. 41. 210 West 63rd Street NEW YORK CITY ABD-EL-KRIM DETERMINED TO WAR TO THE DEATH a week has ended with fierce land, sea and air bombardments along the greater part of the Rifillan, Atlantic shoreline, and a score of Rifillan raids against Spanish and French advanced posts. These raids seem to indicate the growing nervousness of Abd el-Krim, who is by no means sure where the inevitable blow will fall and who hopes to find out by capturing a few prisoners who may be forced to tell. It is pointed out that not many weeks remain between now and the rainy season, which transforms the ridgeless Moroccan rivers into swirling floods, and whatever roads there are into impassable mud puddles. The recent French suggestions are interpreted as, Indicating that Abd-el-Krimei's troops are unable to show sufficient resistance against advances of large bodies of troops preceded by artillery barrages, and that his men are not used to sustaining attacks in trenches which are perfectly suitable to their sharpshooting against an unaggressive enemy. The artillery barrage, while it does not do much harm to the deft-footed natives, who hide in rocky crags and behind builders, nevertheless keep them under cover and permits the French to advance with minimum losses. The French, with the help of the French draw new enemies to occupy unfolding positions, which to protect the frontal attacks, which determine the fight of the enemy. Plan to Isolate the Riff Thus the French hope in cooperation with the Spanish to deliver a telling blow against the Rift us in the next few weeks with sufficient success to at least cut off the Rift from the outside world on every part of the front. Whether Aldel-Krime can be sufficiently humbled by such a defect to accept the passion dictated by the French and Spanish coming to be seen, but the French intend to recover the entire protections some allotted to them, bringing the public under French rule. Marshal Davies will return to Mexico to help in the work of protection of the trilogy, and Marshal Peltan will draw an eye around the patrolled Rift. When the French have covered the Bom Zecharis, lying in the mountain south of the thirteen and the Spanish have dealt similarly with the Debtile River between Chechnia and Teleguza in the west, Aldel-Krime will be depressed of type of his greatest assets and looked into a region with sufficient food supplies to make the winter comfortable. And if the effective is so stiff alone, and the vibrations through it may be possible to subdue the Riff itself. In French, however, there is no notion that this will be achieved. RIEFIANS HARASS·FRENCH LINES FEZ, French Morocco, Sept. 5 While preparations for the big offensive continue to be pushed, this front is unusually quiet, the only attacks being made by the Riflemen themselves and these are little more than skirmishes. They show, however, that the Riflemen are still following their characteristic tactics of unimpeded resuming harrowing and flinching when the French cease advancing even for a day. Two thousand enemy rilles are reported to be concentrated north of Lesnal and many rilles are being fired on this post, which hitherto had been left undisturbed by the rebels. It is time on the eastern front Rifleman pro- 'TIS TRUE! YOU HAVE CORNS BUNIONS OR CALLUSES ON YOUR FEET?

At the same sure is increasing on the Brances who have submitted, some villages being burned, while to the east of Kifane they are working hard fortifying the region. How desperately the goblins defended their mountain position south of the Ouergha is shown by a report that a total of 800 buffles of the enemy have been found among the rocky grottes of this mountain, many of the tribesmen having been killed by grenades. The unusual resistance here may have been due to the fact that a Rifian officer commanded the rebels. Another mountain, Jebel Mussoud, south of the Ouergha, is still grouped by the enemy. DELLEZZAN, French amateur, Sept. 14, 1913. The American types of the Lafayette Escadrille made their debut as a corporate unit on the battlefront today and took part in battle on one of the most important of the Rifleman military centers. Ouzcan was humming with activity last night. From the building where the American aviators are bulldogged could be seen the batteries of French 75s shelling the hills occupied by Rillmans. Clouds of smoke rose in a semi-circle about Ouzcan, coming from under-brush set on fire by Abd el-Krimei's tribesmen in the hope of impending the French advance. The air group of which the American squadron is a unit is commanded by Major Duguesel one of France's best living officers. He holds a splendid record for his activities during the World War, during which he received fifteen decorations. Major Duguesel has served in every French conical campaign since he joined the army. # B A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z. ABD-EL-KRIM CONFIDENT THE CAN DEFEAT FRENCH TANGIERS, Sept. 5.—Abel of Kirmes sent with a rifle Rifle to him, successfully resisted the 200,000 pounds blow opposing him. He reasons as follows: "Of every ten French or French colonial soldiers fighting in Morocco, he recounts that three are unavailable through sickness and wounds and four are in reserve or employed behind the lines. This leaves three out of ten for front line service, a total of 60,000 out of the 200,000." The Rifle chelton furthermore declares that "All of his own men is equal to three foes, since the Buffons are fighting to defend their home land, are armed by religious zeal, are accustomed to the climate and are practically unburdened with equipment, needing only a little dry bread and a small supply of cartridges. On the other hand the French and French Colonies are weighted, down by impediments and are unaccounted to the country, and climate. Therefore, argues Aidel-Kelm, his 20,000 Riffians are worth the 60,000 soldiers in the French front line. Comparing the Spanish and French fighting in Morocco, it is reported here that the Rifians consider the Spanish pilgrim to be better than the French and better bomb throwers, whereas the French artillery is far better than the Spanish.

SO many persons use manufactured products in their homes and at business, yet never give a thought as to how they are made and from whence the raw material came. Rubber, for instance, is universally used and made into products used by young and old, by the small boy romping in his sneaks, mother in the kitchen with her rubber apron and gloves. Auntie sick in bed with a hot water bag, to dad at the wheel of his auto pondering over the prices of balloon tires, all enjoy the various uses of rubber. The story of the early discovery of rubber by the white man, goes that an Englishman went to Brazil, collected some rubber seeds and smuggled them to England where they were planted in Kew Gardens. In 1877 young trees were sent to Singapore, later to Borneo and Malaya. Forty years later the English controlled 75 per cent of the world's rubber. So much for the daring of that Englishman who stole the first rubber seeds from Brazil, and succeeding others who exploit the labor of the Asiatics to produce rubber, which is as precious as gold today. In 1921 the cost of rubber was 19 cents per pound, in 1922 it dropped to 14 cents, then certain agreements were reached between the British producer and the American consumer, which culminated in the Colonial Restriction Act, thereby regulating the exportation until the stocks on hand could be stabilized. Due to the Englishman's long-headedness and the increase in demand for rubber goods in America the price per pound today is $1.25, and still it soars. We have a sneaky feeling that there is something deeper behind the sudden inflation in price than just supply and demand. England owes America billions of dollars which she can't or won't pay. England's unemployed is rated at over a million today. The recent threatened coal strike caused her to subsidize the owners in order to get them to meet the workers' demands. The boycott of her goods by the Chinese in Hong Kong alone causes her to lose one million dollars or more per day. Smaller boycots of British made goods in India creates an added strain on England's purse strings. And in the face of it all, America demands a repayment of the war loan. England retaliates by a sudden rise in the price of rubber of over 150 per cent. John Bull seems to think that if he is forced to repay what he borrowed during the "bloody sport" of 1914-18, then he will maneuver so that American greenbacks will come into his coffers by trade and be paid out again to America in reduction of his little I. O. U. How does the American rubber manufacturer take it? is the query? Mr. Sherman Rogers, in an article in Success Magazine, answers the question patly when he states: They are not asleep, but the public and the American manufacturer must remember one thing. Regardless of all talk, we cannot grow rubber commercially in large quantities in Mexico and compete with the East Indies. We cannot grow it in South America and compete with British and Dutch owners. It cannot be produced in the Philippines under present laws in competition for two reasons, first, a Philippine law that only permits a corporation to own but 2,500 acres of land, and second, labor restriction laws that prevent the importation of Chinese coolie labor into the Philippines. These two restrictions place the Philippine Islands beyond the pale of competition at the present time. Sumatra, the most fertile section of the tropics for rubber cultivation, is only a short distance from Java, a country smaller than the State of Texas, that contains 35,000,000 people, industrious workers who are deeply concerned in making enough money to keep body and soul together. And all of the British East Indian possessions lie in close proximity to the 400,000,000 people of India and the hordes of coolie labor in China. Therefore, they will always be in a position to command tremendous supplies of extremely cheap labor, labor that only demands a fraction of the amount of wages commanded by people of any section of either Central or South America, where rubber can be produced. But the American rubber manufacturer did not despair. He turned his eyes toward Africa, in particular to the little black Republic of Liberia. He saw rubber trees growing wild, without proper cultivation, and yet able to produce an appreciable amount of rubber. Mr. Harvey Firestone discovered this nugget and entered into negotiations with the Liberian government for a concession of one million acres of land or more to be exploited for rubber or "any other development," on conditions similar to the American occupation of what was once Panamanian territory—now called the Canal Zone. Marcus Garvey protested, as he foresaw the danger to Liberian autonomy consequent on a ratification of such proposals. In vain. The concessions granted the Universal Negro Improvement Association were revoked, and Garvey was barred from Liberia. Three weeks ago Midwin Barclay, secretary of state of Liberia, arrived in America, and after a two-day conference with Harvey Firestone closed the deal. In an interview with the press Mr. Barclay stated that "Labor is very cheap in Liberia and strong, healthy men work for 25 cents a day. . . Neither Garvey nor any of those identified with him would be received in Liberia." The American rubber man has got what he wanted, rubber lands and all the minerals under the ground, also cheap labor. All at the expense of poor black natives in Liberia, who will be compelled to trail for white American capitalists for a mere distance. Liberia owes America money, and if Liberian statesmen were honest about the betterment of the republic, they would have kept their word with the Universal Negro Improvement Association and allowed this organization of black men to enter into and cultivate rubber plantations and participate in other development of the country, which, in a few years, would bring into the country enough revenue to repay America and create a healthy treasury for the republic. Liberia could have cornered the rubber market through the U. N. I. A. and restore her finances to par; her native sons would be on equal terms with the blacks from America, and their wages standardized to allow them to live like men and not like peons. Barclay does not want Garvey or Garveyites in Liberia because had they been there, these things would not have happened. Poor Liberia has been bartered away. Who has received the thirty pieces of silver? is the query from black America.

W. Street NEW YORK, NY 10017 THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1825 CRUISING IN SUMMER LANDS ON OUR SHIP The Trip From Havana to Kingston, Jamaica—Beautiful Scenery: Picturesque Houses and Waving Palms—Women Toil Coaling Ships It took three days to make the journey from Havana to Kingston. The scenery along the way was wonderful—green trees, high mountains and the weather was ideal. February 16, about 1 p. m., the pilot came and took the ship, twelve miles into Port Royal. It was a beautiful spot with large waving palm trees and the roofs of the houses painted in different colors could just be seen peeping through. We remained there until 6 a. m. when the custom officers and doctor came ahead. After the examination the pilot took the ship into Kingston. We arrived at 8 a. m. A large number of B. N. I. A. members met us. Also a number of the Legionnaires and Black Cross Nurses, and as soon as the ship was docked they came ahead to see the ship. A reception was given that evening in Liberty Hall. Speeches were made by the executives and also by members of the division. The city of Kingston is situated 750 feet below sea level, with the blue mountains in the distance. Large palm trees, fruits and flowers bloom on all sides. Though it was the month of February, the scene was one of midsummer, old Sol shade in all his glory thereby subserving to nature all the glories which belong to her. The shops and stores are conducted by Chinamen, Englelishmen and East Indians, although many light-colored girls and women are employed in them. The condition of some of our people is very bad, especially the working class, as five dollars per week for men, and one dollar and fifteenths per week for women in the average wage paid. The ships are cooled by bleached women and men, who carry the coal in baskets on their heads. I thought this a terrible hardship, especially for the women, but I was told that they received better pay for this work than for anything else that they can find to do. The people are very congenial and hospitable and are ardent workers for the U. N. L. A. Two of the most beautiful spots that I saw while in Kingston were Hope Garden and Constance Springs, palm, ferns, lush-ius, and the varicolored orchids, and beauty to the scent. The hospital is situated in the northern part of the city and has a corps of doctors and nurses, who are well equipped for their work. One of the most impressive sights and one that I shall always remember was an enormous banyan tree that grew in the square, opposite to the jubilee market. Its branches spread over about a quarter of a city block. I was told that it was presented to the city of Kingston by Germany. Its branches grow straight out at right angles to the trunk, and sprouting out from these branches are smaller branches, which grow downward; before they reach the ground the roots are extended like the fingers on the hand, ready to grip and take firm root. Others cutwine and wrap around each other making a firm support for the upper branches. I had often heard of the Banyan tree, but to see it grow in its own popular way filled me with awe, and as I stood there gazing I likened the tree to the Universal Negro Improvement Association and I thought if the divisions and chapters of the association, scattered all over the world, would support and sustain the parent body in the sinus way that these branches and sub branches support the Banyan tree, what a strong organization we would have, ready and able to combat successfully the enemy within and without. We were scheduled to be in Kington for three days, but owing to repairing of machinery, for which an exorbitant price had been charged, which the ones in charge refused to pay, and an embargo that had been placed against the Gen. G. W. Goethal, for a debt contracted by the Farmouth, we were delayed. As the port charges were fifty dollars per day and only five dollars per day in the stream, we moved out in the stream, making trips back and forth in a motor launch.

Two contests were conducted recently by "The Independent Woman," the subjects being Five Reasons Why I Like to Work for Women and Five Reasons Why I Like to Work for Men. The winning papers are very interesting and we reproduce them below for the benefit of our readers: Five Reasons Why I Like to Work for Women I like to work for women because: They are kind. In the first hard days of adjustment to new leadership, in the excitement of a rush season, in emergencies, or in long, dull days, woman are always kind. They are interested in their assistants as individuals and want each one to succeed. So they study us, advise us, encourage us, and gently but frankly point out our faults and help us to overcome them. They are protective. When a blunder has been made or work has not been satisfactory, consequences must be faced. An assistant who is conscientious and realizes the gravity shrinks from the ordeal. The woman executive generously and bravely accepts responsibility for the blunders of her workers and protects them from needless severity. This reason may suggest cowardice, but I as well as those who are more timid or sensitive or inexperienced, am humbly thankful to the womanly superior officer who stands before me or beside me in the hour of trial. They are forgiven. When you have made mistakes or failed to do all that was expected of you, women forgive and trust you to learn from experience instead of watching for a repetition of the error. They love their work. There are women in the ranks who are indifferent, careless, half-hearted or even cynical, but the women who have risen to positions of responsibility and are entrusted with the supervision of others, I have always found to be women who sincerely love their work. We believe in it and are willing to make great sacrifices for it. They have ideals and live up to them. They are not noisily enthusiastic, but quietly, cheerfully, faithfully devote in the interests of the firm or institution for which they labor. This makes it indeed a pleasure and privilege to work for women. MARY RUDD COCHRAN. Cincinnati, Ohio. Five Reasons Why I Like to Work for Men At the verf start I want to say that the same qualifie of mind and character that have brought me content in my work for men can be found equally in as many women. My own experience in working for men is based on fifteen years' professional and business life, teaching, newspaper writing and advertising. 1. Digness of outlook has characterized the man I have worked for. They have been concerned with results. In consequence there has been an absence of petty demotion coupled with lessness on their part in making generous decisions. This power has been nicely balanced with good sense and sound judgment. 2. Keeeness of insight and perception has enabled men employees to know when to step in with a suggestion when to lead it; when to take the lead; when to refrain. This tact this dependable strength has been shown at the right time. Men of this sort make good leaders. They know how to play the game. 3. Contrasts of the experience of some I have been made aware of the fineness and delicacy of the muscular mind—his patience and foubearance, consideration and courtesy, wholeness of outlook, sweetness, along with native force. 4. Then men I have worked for have been good. Their nice adjustment to basic principles of right conduct both in public and private life has made working for them a satisfaction. The frank, quiet statement from a man "We try to do our best" has made possible intelligent co-operation under trying circumstances. 5. Lonely, the good humor of men, their anxiety, their relish for a laugh, recognition of the value of relaxation recreation, in the course of an undertaking, has made my work for them smoother, happier and more worth while.

Acute Bronchitis By the BLACK CROSS NURSES of NEW YORK Acute bronchitis, like all other inflammatory affections of the chest generally arises as the result of exposure to cold, particularly if accompanied with damp or of sudden change from a heated to a cool atmosphere. It may, also arise as the result of inhaling irritating dust or vapors. The symptoms vary according to the severity of the attack and more especially according to the extent to which the inflammatory action spreads in the bronchial tubes. The disease usually manifests itself at first in the form of a catarrh, or common but the accompanying feverishness and general constitutional disturbance proclaim the attack by something more severe, and symptom denoting the onset of bronchitis still present themselves. A short, painful dry cough accompanied with rapid and wheezing respiration, a feeling of rayness and pain in the throat and behind the breast bone and of opacification or tightness throughout the chest from the early stages of the disease. Acute bronchitis must at all times be looked upon as a serious and even serious admixture. It is preeminently dangerous at the extremes of life, and mortality statistics show it to be one of the most fatal of the diseases of those periods. The importance, therefore, of giving early attention to the smallest evidence of a case of bronchitis among the very young or the aged can generally be averaged.

"Many of the difficulties which beset children could be avoided if their parents understood the schools better and realized how much their cooperation helps," the association says. The suggestions follow: Arrange the breakfast and lunch hours so that there is no rushing at home or at school. Encourage punctuality and regular attendance not permitting truces to interfere. See that the children are chosen simply, neatly, modestly and suitably in accordance with the weather. Insist upon children under 14 having at least ten hoursleep. Find out how much time should be devoted to home work and so that it can fairly done. Provide a quiet place for home study, with good light and ventilation. Present interruption as far as possible. Show an interest in the children's school work, athletics and other activities. Visit the classroom during open school week and at other times for a better understanding. Do not criticize the teachers or school at all within the children's learning. Always hear both sides of every question and ask the teacher about it. Instill in the children habits of obedience and respect for authority. Picture the school as a happy, desirable place rather than as one children should stread. Keep in mind that the school offer unanticipated opportunities to the child who take advantage of them, parents as well as pupils. A local survey has been undertaken.

The Parent Body, Universal Negro Improvement Association, now makes an appeal to its members, divisions, branches, chapters and friends to rally to its support in helping to raise Fifty Thousand Dollars by the 31st of August for liquidating urgent demands on the Association for the promotion of its work. The expense of running the Organization for the good of the race is tremendous. Expansion work must be done and current demands must be taken care of. The fight for Africa's redemption is a costly one, and must be borne by members of our race. We need money now more than ever to carry on the great organization Marcus Garvey founded for the redemption and salvation of the race. Everybody should help. If you can contribute $5.00 let us have it immediately. Those who can give us $10, $25 or $50 will be gratefully thanked for their patriotism and loyalty. persons sending us $25.00 or more should send us their photographs for insertion in this paper.

Those who desire to do so should write to Acting President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association, for needed authority and collecting list to avoid misunderstanding. UNVEILING OF DOMINION CHARTER Auth this stage Mr. N. W. Cohn, president of Division No. 17, announced that the hour had come for the unveiling of Dominion charter, granted by the parent body, for jurisdiction over the association in these parts, the Republic of Panama. In a high-keyed oration he introduced most warm-heartedly the Hon. Chas. H. Bryant, high commissioners, as chairman of the unveiling ceremony. The commissioner, on retiring was greeted with prolonged cheers. Commission Bryant's address will long be remembered. Taking for his subject "Unity and Co-operation," he proved his metal and worthy ambassador, bearing the banner of the U. N. I. A. Bidding the large audience, friend and foie alike. "Welcome to Liberty Hall, welcome to the convention," he emphatically declared. "Here, I bring you, the free spirit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association," the response can better be imagined than described. The unwelling ceremony was a master-piece. The Dominion charter, securely locked in a beautiful class case was completely obscured from the eye and enwrapped by four massive flares. On top was the national flag of Panama. To this flag, Guachapalli Chapter No. 10 and Panama Division No. 17 were selected to do honor. Amid eager eyes Misses Nellie Jones of Panama Division and Ernestine Ward of Guachapalli Chapter, shook hands, lifted either ends of the Panamanian flag and cleared the first soil. Then followed Miss Emmie Klitzon of the Paraiso Division No. 334 and Miss Wilhel Brown of the Las Cascades Division No. 813. Those were young ladies, representing two Canal Zone Divisions, were selected to do honor to the American flag. In the same manner as the first two, they lifted either side of "Old Glory" and the veil of the Stars and Stripes was cleared away. Third, was seen the Union Jack, to which New Providence Division No. 15, represented by Miss Lucerne Allen, and the Gamboa Division No. 19, represented by Miss Eunice Jones, were to pay respect. As before, the beautiful flag of John Bull" was lifted and cleared, leaving the last and dearest of all, the Negro flag the Red, Black and Green. For this last visit Miss Ory Alison of Colon Division No. 298 and Mrs. Treese Glaze of Grown Division No. 166 were the honored unveilers. Anud cheers and tumultuous cheering, as had accompanied each unveiling before, the last flag was lifted. By this time the excitement had become intense. Miss M. Jones of the Panama Division, who had secured the most votes, was called to unlock and open the Dominion charter. This she did and the joyous outburst that greeted the charter has it. We exposed to public gaze lasted many minutes. It was almost deafening. The commissioner stood and read the charter. The chaplain arose and read from the Holy Scriptures as the audience listened with breathtable silence. As a mark of unity and concord the right-voice ladies, representing the Divisions of Colon. Panama and the Canal Zone, held hands, forming L chain and as the commissioner expostulated on so picturesque a demonstration, the audience arrese and the blending of hundreds of voices could be heard far away, pealing forth to high heaven the sweet strains of "Ethiopia. Thou Land of Our Fathers." It was a glorious and magnificent spectacle and the, wroter feels convinced that even, those who thronged outside and could not even get a peep in, must have had their hearts throbbing for joy within them as they joined even unconscionently in such melodious strains. The commissioner made the declaration of authority, as conveyed by the Dominion charter; the chaplain, invoked divine blessings, and the benediction brought, the end of this royal and impressive session to its close. GARVEY DAY CEREMONY GARVEY DAY CEREMONY The Garvey Day celebration was the crowning event of the day. The convention session was again called to order at 7:45 p.m. after permitting but a short process after the unveiling ceremony. The crowd was no less intense, the interest increasing rather than abating, the spirit was no less thrilling than this hour. Was it because of the Garvey Day? Or was it because of the Q. N. I. A. is a spiritual God-blessed movement. Whatever it may be, memorials, friends and loosely, were held spell-bound treasured till night by the proceedings of this local convention of the U. N. I. A. The last phase of the days proceedings was carried through without a hitch. The usual preliminaries were carried through. Prayer was offered and hymns sung, on behalf of our incarcerated leader. The high commissioner again in a brief address added greater inspiration, lauding the efforts of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, appealing for sincerity on the part of all members. The program was further enhanced by addresses from the following officers: Mr. H. Jones, president, Saturn Division; Mr. Geo. Willem, representative Gambon; Mr. R. L. Morrison, president Paraiso Division; Mr. Greenidge, chaplain Chapter No. 14; Mr. C. A. Aberdeen, president of Las Casas, and Mrs. J. A. Parchment. The addresses were all worthy of the great occasion, and every representative made reference to the Dominion charter, pledging themselves and their respective divisions to the cause and to the leadership of the Hon. Macau Garvage, our indomitable president general, Our loud and emphatic voice the praises received the morning and voracious commissioner, Hon. H. Bryant, for his efforts to uphold the dignity and dictates of the parent body and the association in four days. As the return special train was scheduled to leave for Colon at 10 p.m. this function was brought to a close at 9:15 p.m. The closing ceremony was carried through. All stood and repeated the Association's motto, the National Anthem was again sung and the benediction pronounced. The desology harmoniously sung by the large audience, gave the "amen" to this first day's chapter of the "joint local convention, and from thence until the long crowded special train tooled its whistle and snorted, from the station, bearing its hundreds of happy cheering Gavrotes.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1925 LONDON.—Shapurji Saklatvia, a Parashe, Communist member of Parliament, speaking at, a conference of the "National Minority Party," an offshoot of the British Communist Party, at Battersea today, declared that he hated the Union, Jack (the British flag) and was out for revolution. Saklatvia is going shortly to the United States. "I am going to America as an immeasurable enemy of the Union Jack and British Imperialism," he said. "I am out to work for a revolution and the day when the workers will control the whole world." Saklatvia's speech marked the opening today of a Tuesday conference. Six hundred delegates attended, and listened to several revolutionary outbursts. Saklitvata is from Bombay, but represents North Battersea in the House of Commons. "I am going to America," he said, "as a friend of the Working classes. British imperialism ought to crumble, in the dust. I am out to work for a revolution and for the day when the workers will control the whole world. But before this comes you will have to face cold steel." Saklitvata said he was willing to be shot in the cause of revolution. Tom Mann, widely known labor extremer, former president of the International Transport Workers' Federation, presided and made a speech of fighting terms and confemnation of employers. James Larkin, famous Irish labor radical, who was convicted of criminal anarchy in New York in 1819, received an ovation when he entered the meeting. (Gov. Smith of New York pardoned Larkin in 1923, and he was later deported.)

What the United States Cannot Prevent the Japanese from Doing Noted Authority on Internal Politics Public opinion in the United States has given little evidence that it appreciates the close connection which exists between the present Chinese situation and the treatment of Japan last year in the matter of Japanese immigration to those shores. It may be doubted, however, whether any single factor in the problem is likely to have as far-reaching consequences as this. Prior to the enactment of the immigration law Japan was above all things eager to establish herself as one of the community of western nations—a position she was fully entitled to aspire to. In order to achieve this aim Japan was prepared to make, and did make important changes in her Pacific policy, particularly in her attitude toward China. Further, she sent delegates to the Washington conference, and in face of a storm of protest from her people. She exercised important elements of her military security. Having shown herself willing to play the international game according to the rules laid down by the western powers she hoped that some consideration would be shown for her national pride, some sympathy for the peculiar problems of her national life. It was essential for her to find out if these hopes were justified. She, therefore, deliberately staged a show-down with the United States on the immigration question. She felt that the occasion was ripe to discover whether she was to be regarded as a great, progressive intelligent nation when the United States found her assent indispensable to the success of the Washington conference, and, with that out of the way, to be sigmatized as a debased Mongolian tribe unit for American citizenship, unit even to be granted an immigration quota of which African Negroes were deemed to be fully worthy. She wished to find out, she did find out. This new knowledge has completely changed her national policy. Bolgus finally convinced that she will never be accepted on a footing of equality by the western powers her national leaders, with the devoted support of her people, are resolved to consolidate her position in the far east, and let the rest of the world play its own game.

Copyright 1925, for The Cleveland News African Gold Mines Richest in the World; $198,000,000 Yield The Transvail gold mines last year yielded a value of $198,000,000, the highest figure ever reached. Some districts in Canada have doubled their production within the twelve-month. On the other hand, the output of the United States has dropped from $101,000,000 ten years ago to about half that figure. But the total of gold in use in the world is constantly growing because the metal is very durable and the stock is continually increasing. Last year's production is estimated at $352,000,000. The peak of $452,000,000 was reached in 1915. It has since dropped below $380,000,000, but is again increasing.

Lupa and Ngwasiba rivers and are panning out alluvial gold. The district is 400 miles from the coast and can only be approached through a difficult country, nevertheless there is a rush there from all parts of East Africa. Confident gold seekers expect rich diggings. In Toki, Japan and Charlottenburg, Germany, mercury is being bombarded with electrons in a vacuum, and broken up, leaving minute particles of gold in the track of the electric discharge. A year ago it took 100,000,000 parts of mercury to make one of gold. Today the proportion has been reduced to 1 to 10,000; that is, from ten kilograms of mercury one gram of gold can be extracted, worth about four cents. As prices measured in gold rise, gold production becomes less and less profitable, for it, as the yardfick of values, must remain constant. This decrease in gold's monetary value explains its decreased production when prices rose. The British Empire Is Disintegrating Before Our Eyes Premier Borden, of Canada, in a speech at the Institute of Politics at Williamstown, Mass., declared that each unit of the British Empire or what is euphoniously called the "British Commonwealth of Nations" should develop its department of external relations. This means that Canada should be to work in an amalgam sader to Washington to represent the dominion in matters affecting Canada and the United States, and not leave such matters under the jurisdiction of Great Britain as is now the case. Premier Borden is smooth enough to represent this development as being dictated by the ultratic desire to help the British empire. The rulers of the empire are not so sanguine. What is taking place before our eyes is the disintegration of the mightiest empire in history. Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Canada and the leading strings of the "motherland" anything but comfortable. They are shifting for themselves. On the other hand the British colonies largely peopled by subject races are in the throes of revolt. India and Egypt are only held down by force of arms. In addition to these troubles abroad, Britain is straddled with a tremendous army of unemployed, numbering over 1,500,000 and a working class movement that is gradually being forced to a point of revolution, through the failure of capitalism to provide it with the means of living.

Conservaré estas como grato recuerdo porque dimanan de nobles corazónes, y porque sirven para cristalizar la realización de que mi labor durante los últimos siete años, ha sido reconocida y altamente apreciada. Me considero afortunado en mi encarcelamiento, porque en este retro he tenido la oportunidad de compenetrarme de la verdadera impresión que nuestra organización, nuestro grande y glorioso movimiento, ha causado en la época contemporanea, en el pensamiento y en la actitud de los seres de todas las razas. Si para obtener tan valiosa experiencia, si para tener pleno conocimiento de la verdad hay que pagar su precio con la seclusion, estoy altamente satisfecho con la prueba a que he sido sometido. Pláceme sobremanera enviar mensajes de aliento y dar mi opinión y mis consejos en materias concernientes a la bondad y a la dirección eficiente de esta institución nuestra. Yo he dedicado la mayor parte de mi vida a esta labor, redentora y nada ha de apartarme de ella en lo sucesivo. Sería mas que una presunción el creer que el programa de la organización haya de satisfacer a todos. En vez de invertir nuestro valioso tiempo, tratando de complacer a aquellos que finalmente han de demostrar muy poco apreciado de nuestra sana intención, utilicemos toda esa ability y toda esa energía en la fortificación de nuestro ideal. La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra no tiene absolutamente nada que acultar; ella ha tratado de obtener siempre el mejor resultado de todo el material a su disposición. Si se ha visto a veces al borde de la deficiencia, tal estado embarazoso es de esperarse en movimientos de esta indole, principalmente a raiz de su iniciación. El enemigo en todas las ocaciones se aprovecha de estas circunstancias, para anunciar al mundo con tambores y trompetas estos pequeños contratiempos. El universo entero sufre sus equivocaciones. Si hemos de creer que la realización de nuestras aspiraciones, puede ser obtenida por medio de la suerte, estamos cometiendo un error; esta puede ser adquirida por medio de pruebas. Esta institución no es la propiedad de un sólo indivi duo ó de un sólo grupo; patrocinando esta nos patrocinamos a si mismos; edificamos para nuestras generaciones venideras; construimos para la posteridad de nuestra raza. Si hemos de obtener el éxito anhelado en este grande propósito, tenemos que contar con suficiente energía, con suficiente poder para resistir la contrariedad y el ridículo o cualquier otra desavenencia que afrontemos en la persección de nuestro programa. Elementos con verdadera determinación y con la visión del servicio, no tienen un atomo de tiempo que perder en la consideración del fracaso. La potencia de nuestro movimiento se ha dejado sentir por haber extendido su sentimiento sobre toda la superficie del planeta. Ha sido el instrumento sonoro que ha despertado en la mente de nuestra raza la ambición hacia su mejoramiento. Sus representantes, a medida que van de ciudad en ciudad, de pueblo en pueblo, de aldea en aldea, hallan grupos ansiosos de escuchar los mensajes de inspiración y de buena nueva: Estos grupos demuestran su apreciación por los esfuerzos de los miembros de la organización, para convertir en un hecho la constitución de un gobierno el cual significa la emancipación absoluta de nuestro pueblo. Hasta el presente hemos estado prestando nuestros valiosos servicios a las otras razas, obteniendo de ello como recompensa el escarnio y la segregación. Los miembros de esta institución están actualmente determinados a prestar sus servicios a su propio pueblo exclusivamente. Fulmos repatriados a estas playas y por más de el cliente encuentra años se nos fueron ocultados los sagrados pensados del cristianismo.

Pocas veces habra exhibido una prensa tan flagrante falta de consecuencia, consigo misma como la prensa de los Estados Unidos en estos días. Los diarios llenan columnas de elogiosos comentarios a los aviadores americanos que, bajo el pabellón de Francia, estan ya en acción en Marruecos. Un celebrado articulista describiendo la poezas que espera de los miembros de la escudirrilla Lafayette, afirma que cuando vuelen sobre los poblados del Rif arrojando bombas de explosivos feroces y destruyendo las buestes de Abd El Krim, "estarán haciendo una buena labor, en defensa de la civilización." Hay dos aspectos de la guerra del Rif Hay dos aspectos de la guerra del Rif que han estado en evidencia desde que, hace ya muchos, muchos años, los espafoles, solos, sin ayuda de admiradores extranjeros y contra la artera y desalte, ayuda que daban a sus enemigos las naciones europeas, empezaron a luchar en Africa. Eso dos aspectos pueden enunciarse así: Primero, la civilización occidental exige que Marriacos se civilizado, pacificado, organizado como una comunidad humana del siglo XX; segundo, los marroquies tienen derecho a gobernar según su propio deseo, a vivir en su país a su manera, a no aceptar la intrusión de civilizadores extranjeros que van a imponerles costumbres extranlas por medios violentos y destructores. Mientras España luchaba, en nombre de Europa y por encargo de Europa, pero a costa de su sangre y su dinero, los humanistas hipocritas del mundo entero, aliados con los interesados en expulsar a España de su zona para explotarla en provecho propio, clamaron y vociferaron que la guerra era cruel, criminal, unilateral e inhumana. Los rifeños, decian, tienten derecho al gobernio propio. Y el Woodrow Wilsonismo y el evangelismo pacista que sirvido de careta a los empresarios de la gran guerra, daban lemas y prestaban aureola de gloria y martirio al los Abd El Krimes anteriores al actual, adversario del mariscal Petain,—héroe de Verdun. Cuando España, por ejemplo, reclutó en Nueva York, ni más ni menos que otros países europeos, mercenarios para la legión extranjera, los americanos fueron prevenidos en contra. Se publican informaciones infamantes acerca de los “metodos” de España contra los infelices marroquies. Y se presenta al militares españoles como asesinos y foragidos, que destruían peblados rifeños, borbardean niños y mujeres moros y aquecillaban a los patriotas africanos por pedir el gobierno propio. Aquel aspecto de la guerra del Rif, se ha desvuelcido de pronto. Ahora hay sólo el otro aspecto. La civilización occidental, el dominio del hombre blago, que exige a Francia y sus servidores, mercenarios y románticos, mantener a todo trance el dominio europeo en Muruecos, cueste lo que cueste, caqui quien eaiga. Y las ideas humanitarias de los hipocritas de la propagan de las grandes potencias, han quedado archivadas para algún tiempo. Ahora los mismos diarios y los mismos escritores que vilipendiaron a España y a su ejecicio por hacer la guerra en el Rif, glorifican y ensalzan con morboso deleite-las hazanas de los "boys" que vuelan bajo el cielo radiante de Africa, arrojando tremendos explosivos sobre los poblados rebeldes. Las mujeres y los niños moros, los admirables patriotas rífenos, son sólo ya viles bestias salvajes, que los héros americanos, protegieron a Francia, deben cazar implacablemente desde las nubes como angeles vengadores de la Civilización!... Y cuando la paz se haya hecho y los másricales de Francia den las gracias los aviadores americanos sobre los campos aridos y rellenos de muertos marquies del Rif, sera ocasión para que los "businessmen" de aqui entren en actividad. España y los paines que, alejados de la contienda, sigan estos círculos vaivenes de la opinión pública americana, deben ya saber a que atenerse. El episodio presente es ejemplar a instructivo. Y no deja de tener útilidad para los que, en Hispano América por ejemplo, recuerden las expediciones militares americanas contra republica independiente y aberanas . . . pero que, por el mogoteno, haitan perdido la gracia de Washington y, por lo tanto, no tenían en la guía de aqui championes humanistas. Idealistas y liberares. Los tiempos comunes y habituales el critario humano. Lo que no debe encubrir en laica afilia de los pueblos. Pinta sobre todo en polífísico, internacional, clínica, vaga de estudios, formación. Y la primer amistad presente, en este fase, ante el humano infragente, demos El espiritu de la organización mejor conocida con el nombre de "Garveyismo", penetrado en el corazón de la raza negra no puede negarse. Después de haber presenciado las solemnes manifestaciones hechas a la señora Amy. a Jcques Garvey, digna esposa de nuestro presidente general honorable Marcus Garvey, durante su visita a varias divisions de la organización a través de los Estados Unidos, tanto anigos como adversarios estuvieron siempre presentes en las conferencias que en ellas dio dicha noble señora. Una inmensa multitud de elementos de ambas razas se aglomeraba en los salones donde la señora Garvey dejó escuchar su magistral conferencia, dando a conocer al público el propósito de nuestra raza en América. Luego que la que suscribe, secretaria de la señora Garvey, hubo leido el menaje enviado desde la penitenciaría de Atlanta por nuestro presidente general el Hon. Marcus Garvey, varios de los blancos presentes tomaron la palabra para expresar su adhesion de simpatia en el desarrollo del programa de nuestra Santa causa. Explotación del caucho en la república de Liberia El cultivo de un millon de acres de una plantación de gona de caucho en la república de Liberia, es el proyecto de la Firestone Tire Rubber Co. de este país, con el propiso de alfijar la escasez de dicha materia prima. Estan virtualmente terminadas las negociaciones para la compra del terreno al gobicho de dicha república. Su secretario de estado estuvo aquí finalizando los detalles de la operación, lo cual consiste en un arrendamiento a corto plazo con la mensionada compañía caucha. Diocho funcionario cuenta con la aprobación del contrato al regreso a su país. La compañía ilenta enviar un número de hombres a dicho país a preparar los terrenos para la plantación de los árboles, formando además una corporación con un capital de cien millones para el proyecto. La tierra será cultivada en tan gran escala, que los manufactureros de artículos de caucho aquí tendrán asegurado su abastecimiento adecuado. Suprimese un ministro en Haiti Con motivo de la muerte del ministro de los Estados Unidos en Haiti, se ha suprimido temporalmente el nombramiento a su sucesor para dicho puesto diplomatico. El alto comisionado en aquel país, brigadier general. J. H. Russell tendrá a su cargo además la legación de los Estados Unidos. Mientras, continue la ocupación militar norteamericana en aquella repubblica, con el comandante del ejército y el consultor financiero en ejercicio de sus poderes excepcionales, el sostenimiento de un alto comisionado militar en vez de un ministro plenipotentiario es mas deseable por este gobierno. Apesar del programa expresado por el presidente de esta nación de restirar la intervención norteamericana en los países de ocupación, el departamento de estado y los altos funcionarios de la marina no tienen aun plahes definidos para dicha retirada.

KINGS AND PEOPLE OF ASHANTI The causes that led up to the ill-fated expedition of Sir Charles McCarthy into the 'Ashanti country in the year 1833, and which resulted in the great battle of 'Eamacow were many and varied, some of them dating back to the time of Osai Tutu the Great. Some of these I will outline, because they are, of immense importance why we are to understand rightly why it was that England so persistently refused all honest co-operation with these people, and were so bent upon the destruction of the Great Black Confederacy of West Africa. To begin with, one of the principal reasons why England was in West Africa at all was—gold. First, the slave trade, and after the slave trade had been put down—gold. There had been a steady enough stream of gold being brought down to the loatest by Ashanti traders; for it was notorious that enormous quantities of alluvial gold was obtainable by the simple process of washing the mud of the river-streams, and that, after any unusually heavy forensal rains, the hatties would wash the gold out of the gullies and the streets even. So plentiful was the precious metal that the ordinary furniture of the Ashanti nobility, as also household utensils destined for the commonness ofikes were made of gold. The lofty Golden Throne and the traditional Golden Stool of the Kings of Ashanti were the wonder and admiration of all who leheld. So long as the stream of gold continued to flow to the coast all was well; but anything that should threaten to cut off or to lessen this supply must be determinedly opposed. Those who have been closely following this series of articles will have seen that the Black Kings of Ashanti, from Tutu the Great, founder of the Confederacy, were all highly enlightened and progressive monarchs, devoted to the welfare of their people; and as a matter of fact we have been expecting that they must have introduced into their country various institutions necessary to keep pace with the expansion and growth of the Empire. It was Osai Kwasei, fourth monarch of the dynasty or established by Tatu the Great in the early pyr. of the eighteenth Century, that had introduced improved methods of mining all over the Empire. "This greatly increased the output of gold from Ashanti, but, his son and successor conceived the idea of playing his Empire on a Gold Standard Basis and for this purpose he caused to be established 'at' Bantamzam, the Royal Treasury and Bank of the Nation. He issued a degree taking it obligatory on all merchants and traders to deposit all, nuggets mined within the Empire in the Royal Treasury. These depositors were given credit for their gold in the form of notes issued by the keeper of the 'Royal Treasury. Thus, to this monarch, Osai Koju must be given credit for the establishment of the first banking system among these highly enlightened and progressive black people of West Africa. Other progressive movements introduced by Osat Kopo were, the erection of a museum at Bantammah, and trade schools at Bantammah, Bontuka and other important centers. In the museum were collected various species, insects, gold-that precious stones, all manner of curiously wrought gold, ornaments, gorgeous silks, satins, carvings and other works of art that have been a source of admiration and astonishment to anthropologists. In the trade schools was where the stalwart Ashanti youth were taught arts, sciences and that marvelous industrial system that had made Ashanti the undisputed leader in progress in Western Africa. In these schools extensive experiments were conducted in the arts of oil refining, and in the manufacture of those marvellous dyes that were so eagerly sought our by merchant traders from Egypt, Mococo, Abyssina, Arabia and the Orient. The influence of these progressive movements was felt by the surrounding native people, and extended to the coast, but for a long period Europeans were rigidly excluded from residence at Coomassie. Several attempts had been made to place a British representative there, and finally, Sir Charles McCarthy, who was their governor at Gold Coast, was successful in inducing Kwamina to accept a British resident at the capital. No sooner had the resident established himself at Coomassie than he became active in plotting with the Faniit to rebel and take up arms against the Government of Ashanti. When the Ashanti monarch discovered this gross treachery on the part of the English he at once dismissed the resident from Coomassie and dispatched an embassy to the coast. This embassy presented an ultimatum to the governor-demanding an indemnity for the breach of treaty on pain of breaking all relations with the English. The answer to these last demands was a series of further depredations committed by the Fantl, encouraged by the English on the coast, encouraged by the Kwamina collected an army and marched to the coast, defending the Fantl and laying siege to the English fort. The English out a white flag and asked for a conference with the victorious Aphantil. This was granted. At this conference, the English agreed to recognize the sovereignty of the Aphantil government, but again required to be allowed to send another British resident to Guatemala. Now, Tare Kwamina had always been willing to entertain a British resident of Guatemala, believing that the world would promote more general republicanism and reinstate much of the old democracy. But Guatemala had HOW TO ACQUIRE RACIAL KNOWLEDGE READ THE PHILOSOPHY AND OPINIONS OF MARCUS GARVEY Edited by AMY JACQUES GARVEY Know what is really going on in world politics to affect the Negro.

AMY JACQUES GARVEY, Box 22, Station L NEW YORK CITY had experience with one British resident sent from the coast, and did not desire to respect the experiment. Instead, he dispatched an embassy direct to London, in the attempt to negotiate a commercial treaty with the British Home Government. This action on the part of the Ashanti monarch created great friction between them and the Gold Coast Government. So great that the Ashanti merchants diverted their stream of merndise from the English markets to be of the French, Dutch and Portuguese. Big Charles McCarthy considered this diversion of their trade by the Ashanti a sufficient "casus belli" and so he organized a military expedition with the awarded intention of marching on the Ashanti capital. He set out at the head of his army with all the fanfare and military displays, of assured conquerors, marched through the Fanti country and crossed the Prah river—the Rubicon of the Ashanti empire. It was the determination of Sir Charles McCarthy first, to march on the occupy Bantammah, the great treasure city of Ashanti, for he had heard tales of the fabulous wealth of the place. He also hoped to get possession of the golden stool of Ashanti, for he believed that by so doing he would break the merile of the Ashanti. Some Fainti scouts that he had sent to Bantammah came back with the story that a large army of Ashanti fighters had signified their willingness to come over to him. They sent a party of their scouts—who, they told him, would lead him to the place where the golden stool was hidden. He was agreed that as soon as his expedition should reach the outskirts of Esmashow, that the band of the British soldiers would play "God Save the King" and that would be the signal for the Ashanti to come out of the bush and join his forces.

MORE DIVORCED WASHINGTON, (United Press) — One out of every seven couples who now embark on the sea of matrimony become stranded on the rocks of divorce according to preliminary figures published by the Chinese Bureau today. While Dan Kim, successfully fled darts at 29,454 couples, in twenty-three representative States and the District of Columbia during 1924, the path to the altar turned soon afterward to the divorce courts for 4,546 couples. Divorce in these States increased 1,854 last year as compared with 1923 while marriages decreased 21,132. Only four States showed increases in marriages and six States, divorce decreases. Although Ohio is leading the country so far in the tabulation with 50,346 marriages for the year, this State is also leading in divorces granted with 11,329. Massachusetts is next on the list with 32,080 marriages, a decrease of 5.3 per cent from the marriages the previous year, and 3,752 divorces, an increase of 5.3 per cent.

Subject: "The Mastery of a Great Cause" Tent: "And all that see see our soul, looking steadfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel." Acts 6:18. To hold the tradition of the truest doctrine without the illuminating light and the governing glow of that divine Spirit who alone can give life to the most exact dogmatic statement, is ever to deepen the deep gloom of an unspiritual understanding, and to dry up the springs of human tenderness. Nothing is more hardening, nothing more blunting, in its power over fine feelings than truth held in unright-nessness. None of the soft atmosphere of divine charity brings revealed doctrine here into its just proportions. And more, men may cling to an interpretation of truth in a stubborn or cruel persoity because it is their own. If so, such clinging has its power of tenacity, not from the love of the God whose character that truth shadows, forth, but from the hardest and most degrading personal passion. Such, alas! is often the danger and degradation of controversy. And here, instead of judges with the calm serenity of justice, were men infuriated with the consciousness of argumentative defeat, and hardened by a habit of misinterpreting, because misunderstanding, truth. And last, in that strange assembly was one young man: in the bloom of youth, but with the vigor of manhood; like all, who are young, with the hopes of life still fresh before him, with the joy, felt by all the family of men who in any sense deserve it, of conscious strength, and conscious rectitude, he had committed an unpardonable crime; he had loved truth better than custom; faithfulness to conviction better than popularity; he had bated the stagnation of an unworthy tradition, and risen above the temper of the habitual respectability of his time. To him, a thing being patronized by the great did not mean that it was therefore right, assumed to be the best by a narrow-minded morality, did not mean that the beat it was. He had defended an unpopular parity; he had embraced and acted upon an unwelcome doctrine. The men in power could not meet him in argument, and therefore they used the weapons of tantumism; backed by force, they determined to meet him with craft, and bear him down by violence. He stood before the judges, and the trial began. The witnesses were examined and performed their duffy of falshood. The high priest, the president of the council, reached the point when the question of the truth or falsehood of the witness must be asked, the appointed question which placed the prisoner upon his defense. Then, as the interrogation came, the eyes of the assembly were turned on Stephen. Up to this point the "culprit" had been shouted. But within him forces that they little dreamed of were at work. Perhaps in degrees of thought his mind was clammed with the whole reach and range of the argument, perhaps the memory had quickly traveled through the acts of the drama not long before acted on the spot not far from where he stood, perhaps he remembered another prisoner desire to him than the dearest, and now nearer, as he knew, than the bench of judges, perhaps the spacious zazith, the attending people, the assembled council, sank from his sight, and he saw a face pale and haggard, blood-stained, but peaceful, and heard the voice that answered to the judge's question by proclaiming himself, in clearest language, to be the very good. Certainly Jesus was, with him, certainly his promise, that the true words would be "given" in the hour of need, supported his spirit, certainly heavenly powers were upon him and the light of God's glory was steaming through his soul. His face was like the face of an angel. THE AFRICAN BEAUTY BY ERNEST E. MAIR Her skin is firm and smooth and black. Her outline graceful as the fawn's. Full lips, white teeth, expressive eyes.

The call of the Universal Negro Improvement Association ought to be answered by every member of the black race. We are fighting for the right to live and hold up our heads like members of other races. The U. N. I. A. has a program which will make it possible for Negroes everywhere to fill those places in life for which the Creator intended them. The members of the U. N. I. A. have shown that they desire to better their condition by joining the organization and helping the work to go on. They do not expect to gain any sort of success without encountering many obstacles and surmounting many difficulties. We regard our many enemies as we would pieces of waste material on the banks of a stream. We know that they will eventually be washed away by the erushing waters. Members of the U. N. I. A. ought to so live that they will be recognized on their upright attitude in the community and, their progressiveness. They ought to be in the front line when it comes to race loyalty, dependability and courage. W. E. HINES. Alliance, Ohio. Rejoices That Seed Was Firmly Planted To the Editor of the Negro World.

Enemies of our people have persistently tried to hinder the growth, or kill this plant which is spreading so rapidly through the earth among the dark races everywhere.

We regret this, but we are glad that the principles of Garveyism were planted so securely in the minds of black folks before his incarceration that imprisonment can never stop his host of followers from marketing on. D. NATHANIEL HAMMIL. Central Francisco, Cuba. Longing for Democracy Must Be Satisfied To the Editor of the Negro World: The Moors are the kith and kin of 400,000,000 black people all over the world. These are all viewing with an understanding eye the struggle for freedom which they are now mulling. Universal peace cannot obtain in the world until all nations and races are willing to show respect one to the other bigAddress of creed or color. The World War brought to people throughout the earth a great longing for true Democracy. The black races everywhere were awakened as never before. The rebellion of Abd-al-Krim is but one manifestation of this awakening. There will be others. The black man is determined to be free. DIRECTOR LOGAN Although the program of the U. N. L.A. is the greatest which has yet been presented to the Negro for racial preservation and salvation, it has many enemies within the race. There is one class of people who oppose the movement because they are ignorant of its principles. There is another class which is too timid or weakened to stand by the radical program of this great organization. Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are determined to stick by the organization and our leader in spite of any opposition, regardless of criticism or consequences. We do not for one minute consider failure. We know that no such thing can happen to this organization. The spirit of every member would have to die before the organization could pass away. We grieve because of Mr. Garvey's imprisonment, but we are glad that he left his ideals with us. He has taught us to love our race. If he never did anything else he could be termed great for this. W. W. BLAKELEY. An Appeal for Support Of Parent Body Fund To the Editor of The Negro World: The parent body has made an appeal for $50,000. The Honorable Marcus Garvey again leads in answering this call by contributing $50. Although he is confined in prison, he is proving himself a true leader by continuing to do all that he can do to help the cause. He never falls to give unstintingly of himself, and of his means to promote the work of the organization. The Negro race is economically poor. It requires much economy and self-denial; for us to raise large amounts of money. Each must contribute his bit according to his means. If 10,000 would be willing to make a sacrifice according to this means the quota would soon be reached. There is no reason why we should not do anything that we set out to do; but we must have concerted action and the desire on the part of the many to contribute their bit, no matter how small it may be.

AT THE PARTING OF THE WAYS IN to suffer from the the European, alth himself to, thank f goes against the gr can be placed on faith of a set of E TO THE EDITOR BY THE Negro World! I am unable to understand why, after five years of activity in spreading the propaganda of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which points the way to life, liberty and happiness for the Negro, so many of our people have failed to answer the call of the organization. It makes a loyal member of the race sad. I view the attitude, of some of our people who are in a position to greatly benefit the race. Judging by their actions, one is led to believe that these backward members of the race condone lynching, discrimination and the many other, unbearable things which we are forced to suffer daily. They are not using the opportunity which has been given them to help their people to a place in the sun of racial happiness and contentment. The program of the U. N. L. A. is showing us the way and we are thankful that there are enough enlightened and progressive members of the race to help to put it over. We must work, watch and pray. The victory is sure to come. W. P. H. EFFRONTERY OF BRITISH KNOWS NO BOUNDARY After 134 Years of Butchery, Exploitation and, Spoliation of African People, ex-Cabinet Minister Talks of "Trusteeship" From The Irish World J. H. Thomas was Ramsay MacDonald's colonial minister. As such he had to deal with the so-called Irish Free State. At a time when the question of drawing an artificial boundary line through the northern portion of Ireland was acute, Thomas adroitly slipped off to Africa. He has since returned and has been telling the English people of the "wonderful possibilities" Africa presents for imperial exploitation. Of course, Thomas did not actually use the words "imperial exploitation." The spokesmen of British imperialism are experts at employing nice words to cover the most sinister and savage policies. Thomas, although a Laborite and an ex-Minist of England's first Labor cabinet, and at present Labor member of the British Parliament, is a thorough imperialist. We have been led to make these comments by seeing in the New York Herald-Tribune an article which started off in this style: "J. H. Thomas, member of the British Parliament, presiding recently at a meeting of the dominions and colonies section of the Royal Society of Arts, in London, was cheered when he said, according to the London Telegraph, that the British in Africa, were there as trustees, and must do right." Mark the hypocritical use of the word "trustees." "Exploiters" would have been the correct form, but it would not have suited Thomas's purpose. How Thomas can have had the hardship to make such a statement is difficult to understand. England has been a scourge to Africa for many a long year and has retarded the progress of the peoples of that continent to an untold extent. In 1791 the notorious English statesman William Pitt—the gentleman who let loose his imperial fire-brands in Ireland in 1798—declared: The truth is, there is no nation in Europe which has plunged so deeply into this guilt (the slave trade) as Britain. We stopped the natural progress of civilization in Africa. We cut her off from the opportunity of improvement. We kept her down in a state of darkness, bondage, ignorance, and bloodshed. We have there subverted the whole order of nature. We have aggravated every natural barbarity and furnished to every man motives for committing under the name of trade, acts of perpetual hostility and perfidy against his neighbor. Thus has the perversion of British commerce carried misery, instead of happiness to one whole quarter of the globe. After a lapse of 124 years, in which time Britain has done nothing for the peoples of Africa other than to butcher them and rob them. J. H. Thomas has the brazen 'freedom' to tell the world that England is Africa's trustee. THE NEW HERB DISCOVERY STURDEN BLOOD SURGERY AT THE PARTING OF THE WAYS IN MOTHER AFRICA The African Is 'Determined' He Will No Longer Be Exploited—Britain Must Choose to Do Right or Pay—"Plantation System" Must Go From the Gold Coast Times We have reached, a stage in imperial development of African resources when plain speaking becomes of prime importance if chaos is to be avoided in the not very distant future. The time is far gone when on the pretence of trusting you can do the African out of his rights without demur. Where he does not speak outright it is not because he does not feel the injustice, but because he is not strong enough to withstand the injustice; and it is because we are anxious to avoid misunderstanding, trouble and confusion in the long run that we have elected to draw continued attention to the problem. But problem in essentials is whether the white man's necessities must necessarily defeat the rights of the African at home and turn him to a wage-carrier on European plantations. Now, we have not hesitated to say that the plantation system is bad. We don't want it ourselves and we don't want it for any of our African prethen East or South; and if it is forced on either it will but shake the confidence of Africans in British good faith. The only thing that will save imperial interests in Africa will be the West-Africanization of Africa, East and South rather than a hating policy which leaps toward the East-Africanization of West Africa. We publish today a leading article on "British Rule in Kenya" from the Manchester Guardian and the House of Commons debate on Kenya affairs, which should be an eye-opener to our readers. According to our able and fearless contemporary, "In Kenya, in striking contrast to what has happened in our West African possessions, there has gradually grown up a system, half political, half economic, under which the interests of the two and a half million Africans are sacrificed to those of a few thousand European settlers. The root of the evil is the plantation system," and this is shown to constitute "one of the most vital of imperial problems." Ever since the war there has been a group of British statesmen and financiers who have had their eye upon the Nabboth's vineyard of "our African possessions." Their schemes have been formulated under different digueses. More of the promoters have been men somewhat ignorant of African conditions. The majority have gone on the assumption that, the African being intricate, you can do, what you please with his possessions. It is taken for granted that no consideration need be shown, for his right. In fact, as the under dog of mankind he is there to minister to the wants and the convenience of the "superior"战. Well, it is about time that those theories and assumptions were exploded in the interest of imperial solidarity. The fact is that wherever the African turns he is done in the eye. Take even our system where we are in free possession of our soil. How much real wealth do we derive from the produce which we place at the disposal of European markets compared with their true value? We are at the mercy of groups who so manipulate things that whichever way the African turns he is left almost high and dry. The tendency would seem to be by clever manipulation to keep him forever as the underdog. / We hear, so much preaching about character, but we hear little of such preaching as applied to the dishonesty of a class of Europeans who rook the African at every turn. Surely, example is better than precept. And if the African has DANGER.OF HEALTH REWARE if you COUGH, Jose FLESH and are BAK, HEALTH is better than MONEY.

The African has shown that, given the proper incentive, his output can compare favorably with any other race. Such incentive would be fair and adequate returns and the opportunity to command them. We grant that he has got to acquire business knowledge and learn in the school of experience. But, then, those who talk as glibly of expanding imperial trade and developing tropical resources to meet such trade, should at least remember that the human element is more important than the raw product, and that, they feast their object by doing the African in the eye at every burn. To return, we have now before us the text of Sir Hugh Gifford's speech at the Nigerian. Dinner when he laid down the proposition reported by Reufera, as to the importance of recognizing African rights. In his outspoken way he said, speaking of the late Lord Leverhulme, "that although he was a very great man in many ways, yet in regard, to the administration of the West African Colonies, he could only describe him as a very great danger. The present opportunity for developing the West African Colonies was the peasant proprietor, who had beaten the European Estate owner out of the field. The day that they forgot that West Africa was for the native and not for the European, that day they laid the axe at the rooftop of all that was best and all that made for the solidity of our rule in the West African-Colonies." This is the view of an experienced Administrator, and it ought to weigh with those weakened statesmen who would like to see, or wink at a different policy in East Africa. In any case, we are at the parting of the ways, and Great Britain has to make up my mind to despoil our East African heiren for the benefit of the European planters, or to stand fast for the doctrine that the land in East Africa, as in West Africa, is for the indigenous populations. Posterity will judge of her sincerity she attitude she adopts upon this, "one of the most vital of Imperial problems."
