NEGROES OF WESTERN WORLD MUST JOIN IN AGITATION FOR FOOTHOLD OR PURCHASE TICKETS FOR GREAT BEYOND, SAYS HON. MARCUS GARVEY Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: The world in which we live in is so upset, because of the injustices done to the weak and oppressed everywhere, that we may expect a universal upheaval at any time. Europe is rocking with social unrest; the millions who were used in the war for battering down the military fortresses of Germany, the one-time heroes of civilization and of humanity, are left temporarily stranded by the millions in England, in France, in Italy, in America and in other countries from which they went into the war. The pangs of hunger strike the unemployed millions and they are now crying out to the very heavens for a change, whether of condition or constitution, that will give them bread and insure them some measure of happiness. Peoples Struggling Everywhere We cannot afford, therefore, to ignore the signs of the times. Peoples everywhere are traveling toward industrial opportunities and greater political freedom. And where the so-called superior race bars the road to freedom there are war and turmoil, as witness events today in Africa, North and South, in India, in China, in Egypt and in Syria. It behooves us, therefore, whether domiciled in America, or the West Indies, or South and Central America, or the islands of the seas, because we desire freedom of mind and body and of political action, to so organize as to be in a position to obtain the things we seek, the things which rightly belong to us, so soon as the crucial moment arrives. Now Is the Time to Prepare If we are to embrace the opportunities of government of our own, we must prepare ourselves for the hour, the day or the time when the chance for reconstructing such a government shall come. Now is the time, caring not what anyone may say, to prepare the way for a free and unencumbered Africa, for a United States of Africa, an Africa that will reflect the highest achievement of the Negro in statesmanship, in government, in politics, in industry, in education, in science, art and literature, and in culture. NOW IS THE TIME, WHEN WORLD IS IN A STATE OF UNREST, FOR THE WEAK AND OPPRESSED TO PREPARE RESOLVE TO DO WHAT OTHERS HAVE DONE AND WHAT ALONE SPELLS SALVATION THE MUSTY PHILOSOPHIES OF NORDICS MEAN NOTHING TO PRESENT-DAY NEGROES IT IS THE HEIGHT OF FOLLY FOR THE OPPRESSED TO SEEK ADVICE FROM THE OPPRESSOR the cup of human progress will not demonstrate our fitness as a people to exist alongside of others as equals; being subservient to the will and caprices of progressive races will avail us naught; but when of our own initiative we strike out and build industries, build governments, and ultimately an empire, African empire, then and then only, will we prove to man in general that we are fit to survive; then only will the Creator take pride in us. Resolve to Do Men in ages past, yellow men, white men, have lifted themselves out of savagery, out of barbarism, paganism, and all that allies itself with ignorance, to the heights of civilization, to the position of masters of the world. And if they have been able to do that in ages past, you are able to do it today. So let us be encouraged, let us take confidence, let us resolve to do the thing that needs to be done, that must be done, that others have done. There is no statesman in Europe today who sleeps easily and peacefully, because at any time he may hear the tramp of 400,000,000 black men. And one of these days they will not be disappointed; they must not be disappointed. The Negro is a human being, and he is not going to take less than what other human beings are gathering from the world. The Negro will ask for it, will demand it, and, if it is not forthcoming, will acquredly fight for it. That is the long and short of the matter. There is no secret about it. There is nothing to hide. Death, glorious death, must be preferable to a perpetuation of this miserable existence. Think for Yourselves The present day Negro cannot be placated and fulled to sleep by fine-sounding quotations from the books of erudite Nordics. The difference between the Negro of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and other Negroes is that we have recognized the folly of seeking the counsel of the oppressor. For fifty years organizations like the National Association for the Advancement of (certain) Colored People, have been telling us what the other fellow has said and what we should do in view of those sayings. Du Bois, Weldon Johnson, Pickens and that group, who claim to be graduates of the best colleges in this country and the universities of the world, have been telling us of the philosophies of other men—what Socrates has said, what Plato has said, what Bacon has said, what Darwin has said, what Huxley has said and what Roosevelt and Wilson have said. We do not care a nickel about what Socrates said, or what Bacon said, or what Huxley said, or what Roosevelt said. What concerns us now is what are we saying in view of the situation that confronts us? Living in a Material World If you continue to do what the other fellow says, naturally you will continue to be the slave of the other fellow. You must think for yourselves. Faced with a material world, in which Christianity is made little else but a sham, you must think in material terms. When men truly pattern their conduct after the teachings of the Man of Nazareth, then it will be time to embrace only spiritual considerations in your dealings with men. Until then, think in material terms, or purchase a ticket for the Great Beyond forthwith. Stand shoulder to shoulder, accept no compromise, banish faction, and as sure as the stars shine above, success will be yours. Your obedient servant. MARCUS GARVEY. Founder and President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association. New Election Said to Be Ordered for January, 1926—President Borno Alleged to Have Announced Voters Will Be Intimidated as on Last Occasion To the Editor, of the Negro World: "I am writing to inform you that as the result of a rumor that orders were received by the Haitian Government from the Secretary of State Kellogg to the effect that elections must take place next January, 1925, for the constitution of the legislative chambers, as provided, for in the Constitution written for the people by ex-Assistant Secretary Franklin Booettel, Mr. Borno, the de facto President, has made it known in a statement uttered at the Presidential address, that the Washington Government, prompted him to apply that Constitution, he would use the forces he has at his disposal to intimidate the voters, even as in January, 1924, when machine guns were posted about the capital and hundreds of gendarmes, officiered by members of the occupation, patrolled the streets. That display of force, however, did not cause the Haitians to have cold feet and they went ahead and voted, knowing that right was on their side. Though many were severely beaten, resulting in two deaths and several candidates imprisoned, they partly succeeded in their attempt, as a few deputies and Senators were elected. In most cases the ballot boxes were stolen. It is also said that a plan is afoot to imprison all the nationalist candidates and all those managing their campaign. An appeal by the Haitian people, has been sent to President Coolidge and the Secretary of State Kellogg, asking them to take steps to prevent the recurrence of such outrages. England is on the edge of war with Turkey over the Mosul oil fields. Of course, England does not put the case in this crude (oil) fashion. She never does. What England says is that the Moorsians deserve better than to be saddled with the rule of such a lot of barbarians as the Turks. It's all in the interest of civilization. If Mohul had nothing of greater value in the ground than limestone or granite, it is hardly likely that England would worry how the downtrodden natives would get along. But five billion barrels of oil are worth fighting for. The fight is not between the English capitalists and the Turks. The real battle is between the English oil kings and American oil magnates. Admiral Chester, the agent of the American oil interests, made this quite clear when he stated a few days ago that the American civilization long before the Ankos and Saxons. This is talking like a real diplomat. The admiral is learning from "our English cousins." The admiral says the Turkish government is willing to settle the question on the basis of one of Wqodwon Wilson's "fourteen points," the only one left in anything like good condition. So is the admiral, and the retired sea dog is president of the Otoman American Development Company, which holds concessions for industrial projects in Turkey including the Mosul oil fields. The admiral declares that the people of Mosul have confidence in the good intentions and the honor of the United States, and he hasten to state that they will not be disappointed. Not as long as they have a barrel of oil in their native land or until Chester and his associates succeed in selling their concession for a worthy consideration. They have already been offered over $100,000,000, for the sake of Chester's greater concessions are willing to support the British oil men share in the apology. If the British oil men agree there will be no war to save civilization in Mosul. The United States will not intervene to protect the principle of self-determination. This is the tale unadorned. Let our readers point the moral. For Your Health! SICK Men and Women, do not neglect your Health.

"The tanks' fronts mounted higher and higher against the wall, until their increasing, weight caused the barrier to collapse' inward in clouds of dust. The tanks advanced through the breaches thus made, employing their cannon and machine guns with murderous effect, slaughtering the defenders caught within. "A delicate Berber fanatic, hidden in the branches of an olive tree, dropped onto a turret of a tank. He straddled the metal top and kept her away as she tried to climb up the turret. With a long thin knife he attacked the occupants of the turret through the tank's one week spot—an Achilles heel—a narrow split on the top of the turret through which the tank's occupants extend signal flags on steel rods. "The cannonners in the turret were forced to descend and join the drivers in the forward compartment of the tank. The tank then started back toward, the French lines and the Berber fanatic leaped off." Abd-ul-rad was a Berber Chief. Of the Darwish trails and clan: But he held to the trails where Muser's sales Sweep West, through Om-durrah- man. For a price was set upon his head. As a price is always set On the head of a man who is true to his cann And dares mock a tyrant's threat. This Abul-ul-ra'd had shook his sword. In a British Chieftain's face. As he awore to fight for his sacred right. And the freedom of his race. But a tribesman from the Riff land came One night to the Berber Chief. And told a tale, how at Sarsar's vale By the walls of the Holy def. Women and tender babes were ripped By the shells of the coward French. Who rained grim death in a poisoned breath From plane and tank and trench. And how, behind the Sarsar hills Where souls of the holy rest. A gallant band of leagued land Kept watch from the white-walled crest. And when next morn the Sarsar mist Hung dark, like a funeral pal. The steel-clad tanks from the Frenchmen's ranks Crept up to the ancient wall. And slow one crept, like a monster thing From the yawning depths of hell; And up to the base of the Holy Place Raising its shell and shell. It clawed the wall of the ancient tomb: They crumbled in clouds of dust. Then it groped within like a thing of sin. Blood-shot with its war-mad lust. But a stir was seen in an olive tree: That grew by the Holy Crest: Yet there was no breeze from the Sarsar lees And no desert wind from the West: But, lifterning flashed, and a crashing peal Shot up from an open grave. As with gleaming blade, from the olive's shade Leaped Abd-ul-raid the brave. Full on the steel-clad top his sprang, And, clear of the belching shell. His keen knife searched, where the Frenchmen parched (From New York Weekly "Liberty") One of the most striking facts in the world of today is the unrest and revolt that appear among many of the peoples who are held in some form of subjection or control by more powerful nations. One writer has described this fact as "the rising tide of color." But there is another and broader view. If we look back over history, we see that among the most important activities of vigorous peoples are conquest and colonization. Nations have seldom been content with the scope of their possessions and have thrust out, as by some powerful impulse of expansion, into other peoples' spheres. To go back no farther than the Greeks, we find three highly skilled people always reaching out to conquer or to colonize. Athens' two chief projects, against Egypt and Sicily, were costly failures, but Greek influence, Greek civilization, and even Greek rule were carried far and wide by the energy of that people. As for the greatest power of ancient time, Rome, her civilization was carried far and wide on the point of her sword. It was by conquest and colonization that civilization amarched around the shores of the Mediterranean and north into the forests of Gaul. Age after age this process went forward claiming the new world when discovered and spreading, notably through the colonization genius of the British into the most distant lands. If we look at a man of the world today, we shall see that a digital network of ideas and cultures of control spreads over it holding it together in ties of interest and policy, distributing ideas and faiths and methods of administration and government, and creating currents of economic exchange. To us of the stronger, expanding nations, who hire, for all our wars and differences, of one Aryan tradition and civilization, this process, as GEN. SMUTS CLAIMS AFRICA WAS CRADLE OF HUMAN RACE (From The New York Sun!) General Jan Christian Smuts, who presided at the recent meeting of the South African Association for the Advancement of Science, maintained it a brilliant address the theory that Africa was the cradle of the human race. He quoted Darwin as saying it was more probable that man's earliest progenitors lived on the African continent than elsewhere. The great expounder of the theory of evolution was led to this conclusion by subtropical flora in Southern Africa, which grew more like the plants of South America, and Australia than those north of equator. Darwin also advanced the hypothesis that certain temperate zone flora, which in Africa grow only in the Southwest of the Cape Province might have had their origin in an isolated continent, possibly near the South Sea. South have to South America, Australia and South Africa flowers that have handed down their peculiarities through the ages. General Simons rejected the theory of migration from Europe. He pointed out that most scientists were trained in Northern countries and no have absorbed a Northern blas, assuming too readily that the flora and fauna of South Africa came from the north. He called, attention to the facts that Africa, India and South America are the sole diamond producers of the world; that several geological formations near the Cape are parallel in the other two regions, and that the diamond stone are found in South Africa, Brazil, Western Australia and India, but are not found in Europe. He cited the Bookon skull as showing a connection between the Hottentots and their prehistoric ancestors. His address is attracting the attention of scientists everywhere and may stimulate study of prehistoric times in this less exploited part of the earth. Jewish Congress to Start $15,000,000 Migration Fund A nation-wide congress of American Jews will open in Philadelphia next Saturday to launch another campaign to raise a fund of $15,000,000. The money will be used largely to expand and intensify the present mass movement of the Jews of Russia from the cities to a new life on farms in the rich Russian grain lands. This movement, it is said, is assuming the proportions of a racial migration. Whose Home Are You Buying? Why buy a home for your landlord if you can buy one for yourself?

J. old as our history, has always been looked upon as benicent and invultable. The church has blessed it. Our common conscience has approved it. Our statemen, our historians, our intellectual leaders have accepted it and furthered it. We believe that it is our privilege and our mission, as well as our interest, to expand, to spread our culture, and to rule in some form or degree over the peoples of other races who are not possessors of our civilization, who are, as we believe, backward or inferior. But now in our day we find a far-reaching denial of these assumptions of superiority and a ferment of revolt. Is it, indeed, a turning of the tide of human history? A century and a half ago we ourselves revolted, revolted against the idea of government by superiors, of government by a will imposed upon us from above. The American revolution, the French revolution, and before them the rise of Protestantism, spread among the rulers of white-civilization the conception of self rule and the ideal of equality among men. These ideas could not be confined among us. We ourselves by this very, system of conquest and colonization had produced a nation that was careless to subject peoples over the world. They revived pride of race and restored the ambition of national development. They inspired obscure or subject peoples with a new sense of dignity of man which we preached among ourselves. They broke down age-long habits of obedience to authority. This tremendous movement is not a mysterious upspring of spontaneous revolt of race against race. It is not a pheponemom of color. It is the natural harvest of our own ideas, spread by ourselves, through the same process or system of conquest and colonization which has carried civilization in the past beyond the confines of its creators. RIFFIANS SINK SPANISH SHIP One Thousand Spanish Troops Lost as Transport Goes Down (From Chicago Tribune Press Service) PARIS, Sept. 11 - A disaster occurred today when the Franco-Spanish transport, España Quinte, with 1,000 Spartan lish foreign legion troops aboard was sunk by Rifman gun in Alhucemas bay. The transport had anchored the troops at Penon island, which is 1,000 yards off shore, and was steaming full-speed with other transports to debark them at the mainland when two or three 50 shells plunged through the entire engine room. The boilers exploded and the transport sank immediately. The legionnaires were heavily burdened with grenades and cartridges and very few reached shore. The transports are apparently landed their troops and they under cover of the constant naval and aerial bombardment, are fighting their way up the rocky hillsides toward Adjir through innumerable Rifman machine gun nests. Detail of the offensive are rare because the Spanish government has completely suppressed the news in Spain for fear of public opinion. It has even forbidden foreign newspapers to enter the country. The censor at Melilla has muzzled the correspondents until some decisive result is achieved. New York Pastor Points Congress of Christians The True Path to God STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN. — The Universal Christian Conference, holding its annual session here, is having a thorough discussion and investigation of the problems confronting all the speakers, the stability of the theory of 'Nordic superiority. Not the least of these is the direct influence of the theory upon the American Negro. Rev. Wm. Y. Bell, one of the colored ministers attending the conference, has been one of the foremost speakers on the program involving the discussion of Racial Adjustment. His wide range of learning and experience enabled him to speak with authority and compelling conviction. He firmly believes that the millions of darker peoples in the world are not willing to accept the standard set by the Nordic enthusiasts. In one of the largest meetings, during the course, of one of his stirring addresses. Rev. Bell made the following remarkable statement: "We are determined and set under God by every fair, means available and yet to come," he declared, "to puncture the bubble of Nordic superiority. And we have every confidence in the Nordic superiority by the explosion. We are sure that the Christian forces of America and Europe are with us in this purpose." MANILA Sept. 9 (A.

REGISTER NOW AND START A BUSINESS COURSE At the Opening of the Fall Term Monday Evening, Sept. 14th BRAITHWAITE HIGH SCHOOL & BUSINESS SCHOOL with assistance from local schools, will open today THE FUTURE HAS MUCH IN STORE FOR DARK RACES Native African Sees Approaching End of Rule by Arms—Larger Humanity Will Assert Itself Future Belong to All The future is not likely to be smooth for us of the Negro race, or, for that matter, for any of the darker races. The period of transition from the age of the dominion of the white races to the age of equalization of the races of mind has been distinquishable since the alteration in the outlook of the white race caused by the victory of Japan over Russia became inevitable. The end of the period of belief in the efficacy of arms has practically come and the necessity of having kings who are philosophers and philosophers who are kings is becoming daily a step. A period such as this cannot be period of quiet for any one race, least of all, for the race most malignant, belittled and designed, the Negro race, the exploitation of which by the races of modern Europe (including, of course, America) has created all the troubles of this highly artificial age. Whatever this period has, in store for us, it behoves us to regard the near future as the time in which our humanity, including our capacity for human and humane development, will assert itself. We are to look upon the days that are to be as the days of our racial emancipation, the days in which it will not be regarded even by ourselves as a response to be called Negroes, however wrong the term may be. The future, covering a period which paradoxically enough, has been running for some time now, will see us attain our racial manhood. We are not the only race that will make this achievement. Each of the races now living may grow many in its thoughts and actions. It is important, whether any of the races of the past of which we have records ever reached its manhood; otherwise we should not have found history to be a narrative of rises and falls of nations. No one race by itself can hope to escape extinction, but all the races by maintaining a common human cause in a diversity of states or empires can keep the whole of mankind from moral degeneration and social decay. It is in this respect that no race in the past seems to have passed its infancy. And before the races of the world can reasonably expect to be able to discover the nature of the common human race, they must learn to distinguish the natural in social or political combinations from the artificial; they must so coearrange the tribes and nations as to form out of the present agglomerations of heterogeneous, externally connected, social or political units, more organic, naturally consistent groups. A good deal of unnecessary and wasteful friction would thus be avoided and there would be more smoothness in the conduct of national or sectional or domestic affairs. It is not for nothing that sociology, anthropology, ethnology and more generally, philosophy, are being recommended as sit subjects for those who aim at ruining their fellow men. Formerly the philosopher was regarded as the most monstruck of students, whose thoughts were abstract to the point of absurdity. Yet it is the so-called practical man who deals with absurd abstractions, excluding from his consideration several points of which he is unable to realize the relevance or connection. What man of culture would, prefer the empirical builder to the trained architect who comprehends the most elaborate plan in his mind and whose function it is to direct the merely experienced builder, who may not often see the purpose of some section of the work allotted to him? Yet men think that in dealing with their fellow men, not in groups of ten or twenty, but in tribes and nations, they can afford, to ignore the question of the possible reaction on themselves of their own conduct towards those thus dealt with. Therefore, although we are as yet too low in the scale of world consideration to be regarded as likely to be soon formidable to those now in power, yet in the sphere of thought, of learning, of scientific labor, of social or political organization, our very low position may enable us, or oblige us, to observe, and bring to the notice of those above us, those aspects of our relations with them which, from the very nature of things, must escape their attention. We may yet be the learner that will make the white world lastingly useful to themselves as well as to the rest of the world. We are now observing, for example, in our country the strange phenomenon of the growth of a sort of British-born, hybrid autocracy as a result of the conflict of English crown colony rule with our peculiar, provisional democratic-mohair hei system. We are in our peculiar, if not our supposed teachers will think it possible that they have overloaded something From The New York Times. LONDON, Sept. 12.—Organized British labor, gave further proof today of the great strength of the extremists within its ranks. It apparently balk at another step toward Bolshoi am when the Traits Union Congress at Scarborough, by an overwhelming majority, passed a resolution denouncing British imperialism as a form of capitalist exploitation and supporting the right of all peoples in the British Empire to self-determination, including the right to choose complete separation from the empire. Previous to the passage of the resolution speeches were made merely advocating revolutionary tactics by organized labor in seeking to gain its ends. In vain moderate delegates to the congress, including the noted leader, J. H. Thomas, sought to stem the tide setting toward extremism. They were utterly swamped. The final count of the vote on the resolution stood: 3,022,000 for it, 75,000 against it. It was a sweeping victory for extremism. The man introducing the anti-imperialism resolution was A. A. Purcell, member of Parliament, who headed the recent Labor delegation to Russia and signed the much criticised Purcell report on conditions there under Soviet rule. He described imperialism as the "most enemy of the working class". When Purcell sat down J. H. Thomas allowed to his feet and shouted: "If anything can make this country ridicu- (Continued on page 5).

(From the New-York Times) LONDON, Sept. 12.—In *Atlanta or Asia*, the old easy, conditions of political suspicion or commercial ascendancy of the United States, peoples or their American descendance.* That is the lesson drawn from the Moroccan War by J. L. Qaevin in The Sunday Observer. "Without wider unity in Europe itself and without more far-sighted and sympathetic association between Europe as a whole and the United States," he continues, "the existing supremacy of what we call Western civilization will be severely reduced in the course of the present century and the balance of a changing world may even be turned against all the white races without distinction. The awakening of Islam and Asia is already one of the larger forces of history, and that movement is only beginning. All Islam sympathizes openly or at heart with Abd-el-Krim. "In Syria, those very different but equally virile highlanders, the Druses are in arms, while discontent of Aras is simmering in the same quarter and they would throw off French rule if they could. In Egypt, India and China institution is mobilized by Western ideas and by the native press." Mr. Garvin also seen omnous signs of discord among the white spaces themselves, which may have direct consequences. He writes: "Abd-N-Skrim, Zughulh, Mustapha Kemal and extremists in India and China are as popular in Berlin as at Moscow. The isolated disarmament or Germany is a gesture for Assatele morales." "America's rejection of the league encourages the same disarmament as a whole. Unless war prepares for it, forgotten and some crude blunders of Versailles recited, unless reconciliation is used and white solidarity restored, the power of white civilization in the world will decline from its zenith at no very remote date." Premier Palinleve of France opened the six session of the League of Nations with whom he began a great war. He warned the delegates of new war, unless immediate steps were taken to sidetrack the menace. Evidently the philosophical Palinleve forgot all about His own Moroccan adventure where his government has 200,000 troops, several warships, armored cars, tanks and airplanes engaged in the "peaceful" task of robbing the tribesmen of their country. Perhaps Mr. Palinleve does not consider a war of extermination against small "indigenous" or "foreign" enemies to be reasonable safe from civilization and adays are those who are strong enough to protect themselves or those who have nothing worth stealing. The bandit powers are not worrying about punitive expeditions against subject peoples who refuse to remain subject. This is one of the visible means of support of the imperialist powers. Such adventures are universally agreeable unless the pirates begin to encroach on each other's property. Only the treasure itself is really afraid of is being whopper of a war between the imperialist brigands, a war that is sure to send the whole rubber band into disarray, ended by a stiff kick from the revolutionary working class. British Seamen Threaten Strike From Columbian Press Bureau LONDON, ENGLAND.—Sixteen Negro scammen, who entered this port last week on a British vessel, alleging improper employment practices on the part of the shipping company by which they were signed up, have threatened to strike.

The enthusiasm that is characteristic of all U. N.I. A. members toward their organization was present in its wonted form, notwithstanding the fact that the greater part of the meeting was given over to entertainment by a male quartet of the Roger Williams University which is touring the country in an effort to raise funds for the support of that institution. The quartet rendered with great effect a number of Negro spirituals and other songs of which the audience showed their genuine appreciation by enthusiastic applause and several encores. The greater part of the meeting being devoted to the musical program, there was little time left for speaking, hence the only address delivered was by Hon. G. A. Weston, vice-president of the New York Local and chairman of the meeting. On the platform were Hon. Percival Burrows, First Assistant Secretary-General, and Hon. Dr. J. J. Peters, Acting President of the New York Local—Mr. Weston, in a brief talk, reminded the members of the objects and aims of the University Negro Improvement Association and stressed the desire on the part of the organization for unity and concord among the membership. Any attempt on the part of any individual or group of individuals to create disunion in the organization would, he said, be viewed with great disfavor and be checked at the source. The U. N. I. A., he said, was passing through a critical stage of its existence and is behooves the members to hold intact its principles and ideals and resist any attempt on the part of others to disillusion them and destroy the organization. This is the time he added, when men and women must measure up in service and thought to the problems that confront the race and arrive at a solution that will mean the salvation of the race and the safety of the organization.

Weston spoke as follows: It is necessary that we reiterate from time to time from the platforms of the Liberty Halls throughout the world what the Universal Negro Improvement Association stands for. The objects of our organization are to give out information regarding the affairs of the Negro race, to instruct our members as to their policy of action and endeavor to keep them in unity, peace and concord. This last object, I am sorry to say, very few of us keep foremost in our minds, and if there is on the part of any individual or group of individuals a tendency to bring about disunion in the ranks of the Universal Negro Improvement Associations at this time, when the Association is making itself felt in this community and universally, we should of necessity see to it that such individual or group of individuals be shown their places. We want it to be known that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is not the place for individuals to avenge any personal grudge. The Association is here to do those things which will arrest the Negro by organization to push forward to the mark of Africa's redemption and universal contact among the race. Striking Laborite Manifesto There is an item of news which appeared recently in the New York Herald and Tribune that I would like to draw to your attention. It is as follows: "London. Sept. 12.—The Trade Union Congress ended its session today at Scarborough, with the passage with the overwhelming figure of 3,882,000 votes to 79,000, a resolution declaring Labor's complete opposition to imperialism and demanding the right of all parts of the British Empire to complete self-determination even to the length of secession." We are not so much interested in the actions of the Laborites or the Socialists, or similar organizations. During 1917 and 1918 when the Socialist, movement invited those people who were down-trodden to link themselves with them because Socialism at that time offered much to the unthinking individual, and the Negro being the last on the ladder of human progress would naturally be inclined to accept the preachments of Socialism, the President General of this organization, Hon Marcus Garvey, guided us from that wreck and ruin and saved us. So that we are not at this late hour willing to accept the arguments of the Laborites or the Socialists or the Dobleshivs. Regardless of what others might say or do, the Universal Negro Improvement Association stands for the complete redemption of Africa, and at this time in its history when it is really passing through the terrible as it were, it calls upon its loyal members to pay little or no attention to propaganda that tends to disrupt and destroy the institution which men and women have sacrificed their all for, and for which one man, more than all, is now suffering inerecration. It is for you and for me as memoirs of this Association to hold always intact the principles and the ideals of this Association and steadfastly resist the efforts of those who would disillusion you and destroy the organization. This is no time for oratory but for men and women to measure up in service and in thought to the problems that confront us and arrive at some definite understanding for the salvation of our race and the safety of our organization, so that when our President-General shall have been released from his temporary confinement, he will find us on a solid financial and economic basis. Americans Find Service In Morocco Difficult FEZ. Aug. 29 (International News Service)--American fleets with the French army in Morocco are conducted they are up against flying conditions different from anything they have ever experienced herefore. The Americans find that the high temperature of the Riff country excludes difficult air conditions, making flight an obvious task. The Americans have been flying very high and keeping well out of range of the Riffian zips, but were given an opportunity to study the front and to watch special bombing operations. MOROCCO CRIME: REAL TEST TO BE AT BIBANE From the New York World PARIS, Sept. 13.—The first real test of strength between Marshal Petain and, Abd-e-Krim is to be at Bibane, the mountain north of the Ouergha River. It is defended by picked Rifflan troops, combined with the Bent Zeroual and lesser tribes bordering the Ouergha to the north. Petain has accepted Abd-e-Krim's challenge to battle here, refusing to move forward over the easily conquered mountains along the remainder of the forty-mile Ouergha front until he has had a trial of strength with the regular troops of the Riff. Battle is likely tomorrow. French Puraue Tribesmen Up the valleys toward the Riff mountains from the Quercha French columns have been chasing bands of tribesmen who stopped only long enough en route to burn villages and drive off cattle, leaving behind to make peace with the French those local tribesmen, who were unwilling to go with them. This peacemaking, the most important detail of the French advance into Riff territory, is an impressive ceremony requiring luxurious ginkgots sumptuously fitted, where Moulat Mahmou, brother of the Sultan, is sitting with Gen. Count de Chambon to receive submissions to the Sultan. At Mira, where this performance is taking place, there has been a series of negotiations, the tribesmen bargaining furiously before submitting Mosleum Sanctury Looted Another picturequeque event was at Amjot, which is a holy place—Zaouia—famed throughout Islam. The Riff mountaineers, less versed in Islamic lore than the less isolated Moroccanans, made a mistake when they took Amjot last spring by looting the sanctuary! The religious brotherhood of Cheras, who are responsible for the Zaoua, told the Rufians on that occasion that Allah would punish them, and yesterday when the French recaptured the place they declared to the Sultans representatives that Abdul-Krum had been cursed by violating the holy place. RIFF'S GREAT DRIVE IN WEST BY RAYMOND FENDRICK In the San Francisco Chronicle BARRIE, SEP. 6. "The new tele- gram filtering through the Spanish capitalship in Morocco today are highly alarming. In the western sector the Rufians have arrived within two miles of Tetuan, the capital of the Spanish "protectorate," and are fighting desperately along the Tetuan-Centa road to cut off the reinforcements arriving hourly from Spain. The Spanish have blockhouses every 1,000 yards along this vital road, but several Rufians 75 batteries are playing havoc with the traffic along the road. At Madrid the directorate sat all day under the chairmanship of King Alfonso, and decided on many extraordinary measures to meet the situation. In the Alhucemas sector the Spanish received a serious 'setback during the past week' according to news slowly coming through Tangler and other free points. The Spanish made several attempts to land troops at Alhucemas during the French-Spanish aerial and naval bombardment, lasting almost continuously from Monday to Thursday, and only lost one transport full of troops, but suffered severe losses on the other transports. The official French Havas agency, which announced the sinking of the loaded transport Espana Quinta, has refused to make a denial, and 'Rifan and English' reports from Tangler confirm the disaster. The troops who tried to land at Alhucemas from Penon. Island found the rocky hillsides impregnable with trenches, barbed wire and machine gun nests. The mass of barbed wire around the hillsides absolutely amazed the French naval officers. After a four days bombardment the Spanish failed to land a single, man and all attempts to debark there were abandoned. The details of the operation were completely suppressed. Abd-al-Krim/Ordere Lévy En Massie French communique today, reports that Abd-al-Krim has ordered a levy on massa in all the territory under his control, and will have between 100,000 and 150,000 fine fighters under arms in a few days. The Spanish directorate rushed 15,- 000 elite troops to the defense of Tetum from Mahanga and Costa last night and this morning, and is reported to be sending 30,000 more tonight. The French and Spanish both are preparing for big offensive this week, but the crushing of Krim has been definitely delayed until 1938 or 1977.

Migration Raised Cotton Wages (From Columbian Press Bureau). BIRMINGHAM-Cotton pickers are now being paid $1.35 to $1.50 per hundred weight, and the pickers are being fed, housed, and even carried to the fields in automobiles. A few years ago, before the migration North, the price was 30 to 50 cents a hundred and pickers were at the farm door bright and early, begging for work. The importance of the cotton crop is indicated by the August bulletin on general business conditions, published by the National City Bank of New York, which says: "The cotton crop is being watched with great solicitude by millions of people. The growers in the southern States have a vital interest in it, and all business in that section is largely dependent upon it, but interest is no greater there than among the millions of cotton goods operators in the factory towns of New England, old England, and upon the Continent of Europe." Would Give Up Philippines To Avert War in Pacific GREAT FALLS, Mont., Sept. 8 (A.D.)—Expressing the fear that possession of the Philippines by the United States eventually will lead to war with Japan, Representative John M. Evans of Montana, in a Labor Day address here, advocated 'relinquishment' by America of its hold on the islands. He cited the immigration bill and the restrictions on Japanese in California as factors precipitating ill feeling in Japan against the United States, but declared that in his opinion, American possession of Philippines was a real danger which threatened war between Japan and the United States. "The remedy is for the United States to come out of the Philippines. We agreed to come out of them and have not kept our word."

Put your shoulders to the wheel and boost the business co-operation and business development of the Negro race everywhere. ARABS OBJECT TO A JEWISH STATE IN PALESTINE THERE is general interest among readers of The Negro World in the world-wide movement of the Jews to re-establish themselves in Palestine, because they have a dream of their own to establish a State of their own in Africa, and with the primary object in view of unifying Negro purpose and objective of saving Africa for the Africans. It is a grand purpose and objective intended to serve those of the race scattered throughout the world who may want to return to Africa as well as to help to higher and better things the native Africans, who are struggling against European usurpation of their lands and exploitation of their civil rights and economic values. The Jews have the same idea in view in the Zionist movement, and they are having some success in their work. A great deal has been said about the Zionist movement and what it is accomplishing, in American discussion of the subject, but very little has been said about the organized opposition of the Arabs of Palestine against the Zionist movement. Indeed, the Arab has been regarded largely as a negligible factor, with the Zionists proclaiming what they want in Palestine and the British, in the declaration of November 2, 1917, saying they can-have what they want. We have the Arab and Jewish sides of the question presented for us in the September number of Current History. Isaac M. Husseini states the case for the Arabs: He maintains that the British declaration in favor of the Zionist movement is a violation of promises made the Arabs, who compose 91 per cent of the total population of Palestine, composed of Moslems and Christians alike, who are the real owners of Palestine, and who, it appears, refuse to be driven out or into subjection to the Zionist Jews even when they are backed by the British government, without organized protest and resistance; resistance which the British are striving to avert. The Arabs insist that resistance is bound to come if there shall not be a change in British policy. The Arabs and Christians and Jews of Palestine not under the influence of the Zionist movement, ask that "a national government be created that shall be responsible to a parliament elected by those inhabitants of Palestine who lived there before the war," with power to perform such services as governments usually perform for the good of their people. "Peace and love do not dwell in the hearts of Jew and Arab today. There must come a time when hatred between the two communities will accumulate to such a degree as to defy all moral or political restraint," says Mr. Husseini. Mr. Conrad Stein, in presenting the Zionist side, undertakes to deny or explain all of the charges brought against the Zionists by the Arabs, and insists that the Jews ask no special privileges and expect no favored treatment except such as all the citizens of the country shall be entitled to: "They solicit no favors," he says, quoting from a Zionist statement made to the League of Nations in 1922. "They ask, in short, no more than an assured opportunity of peacefully building up their national home by their own exertions and of succeeding on their merits." The conflict of Arab and Jew to dominate Palestine promises to be a long one with the spilling of much blood possible before a final settlement has been reached. The matter is complicated by the fact that the Jews are Arabs by descent through Abram and Sarai of Ur of the Chaldees and should have everything in common with the Arabs. Why have they not? Simply because the Jews have become Europeanized and Americanized in their development, while the Arabs have remained Arabs in their development, and the two being essentially different it is not easy to harmonize them, especially in the matter of religion, the Arabs being Moslem and the Jews Israelitish in their religion. THE NEGRO IN AMERICA HAS AMASSED TWO BILLIONS OF VALUES DR. ROBERT R. MOTON, in his address as President of the National Negro Business League, in its annual meeting at Tulsa, Okla., lately, emphasized the fact that the American Negro has amassed during the past half a century $1,800,000,000, or quite two billion dollars in property values. There are 73 banks, with clearings of $100,000,000 per annum, and the insurance companies, which continue to grow in number and strength, have policies of $250,000,000 in force. The race is also increasing its land holdings, and the business growth is gradual but steady. All this is of much encouragement and promise for the future. Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are concerned in all of the business development of the race, as we have found in all parts of the country, and that is as it should be.

PETERS IN THE NEW YORK LOCAL IT is of importance to the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and to the members of the New York Local in particular, that President-General Marcus Garvey has designated. Dr. Jay J. Peters' late of the New Orleans Division, to be acting president of the New York Local, in the absence of President Garvey. Dr. Peters comes to the most important task the president of any of the locals can undertake in directing the thoughts and efforts of the Parent Local, with its large membership and valuable assets, and because the New York Local is as a light set upon a hill to all of the other locals. It is impossible to secure the services of a president who can, in every way represent the interests of the local as President Marcus Garvey, the founder of the association, did it, because no one understands better than he the principles, the plans and the working machinery of the association. That is understood. In designating Dr. Peters to act as president during his enforced absence from the work President Garvey, it is generally understood, has acted for the best interests of the association. Now, how does Dr. Peters regard the trust committed to him? In a talk at Liberty Hall last Sunday evening, in accepting the designation as acting president, Dr. Peters said: cannot run with a stroke or his pen. The plain fact of the matter is that Marcus Garvey in jail is more powerful, as far as the destinies of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are concerned, than all the rest of the leaders within the organization combined. He is our spiritual leader, our real leader, and he shall remain our leader. It shall be Garvey first, Garvey last, Garvey all the time." This is a clean cut statement of Dr. Peters' understanding of the position he has accepted as Acting President of the New York Local, whose members should thoroughly acquaint themselves with his viewpoint. We are sure that we do not need any factions in the New York Local, and we hope, therefore, that Dr. Peters will not be called upon to take sides with any faction, but that he will have the earnest cooperation of all the members in the effort to keep the local in the front rank in numbers, in strength and in good works. We all hope that much. We can do this by resolving to do it and sticking to the resolution. President Garvey has designated Dr. Peters to act in his absence as president and it is the duty and should be the pleasure of the members to do all that they can to help Dr. Peters make a brilliant success of his administration of the high position to which he has been called. The pessimist says there is more evil than good in the world, but every day life presents many examples of bright flowers emerging from the dull dark earth of commonplaceness, and restores our faith—Kansas City Cell.

GET SOMETHING SOMEBODY WANTS THE distance between the person who has something he wants and somebody else wants, but can't have unless the price for it is paid, is the distance that separates the prince and the pauper. It is difficult for a poor man to be independent and self-respecting. How much more so for a race? It is difficult for a person to have wealth, in a small way even, unless he is industrious and saving and has the knack of making his dollars work for him by judicious investment in land or bonds or business of some sort. People who have the knack of working and saving and making their own work for them are usually the moneyed people of the community whom their neighbors look up to and respect. Why? Because it takes brains to make money and save some and wisely invest them saved. Small-minded and ignorant persons talk about people and not things, hence, groups is the base of the age.

The Negro is the most dependable and satisfactory laborer in America, and especially is this true in the mining fields of America.

Just so soon as we show to the world that we stand united—just so as we show to the world that we have the ability to control and manage business affairs as well as fraternal and possess the necessary mankind and womanhood to keep alive and protect our human, destinies, business, cultural and other institutions, just so will the whole United States respond to us as a companion plot of the body politic that must be questioned or a compulsory force in waking the hope and thought of the nation. Law Monaces Liberty And Public Opinion Monaces Law DETROIT, Sept. 2 (A. P.)—Charles Evana Hughes today opened the forty- ninth annual meeting of the American Bar Association, of which he is Pres- ident, with a warning against legal re- strictions on liberty and a plea that the opportunity to learn be not ob- structed; outlining the dangers of "am- intolerant spirit," which he regarded as "the most ominous sign, of our times." He deplored the growing number of statutes but said that greater than the danger of multiplicity of laws was the character of laws. He saw a monace to the legal profession and to the American public in permitting incompetent men to be admitted to the practice of law. "There is no guaranty of liberty in putting the community in bondage to the ignorant," he said. Liberity and law are a combination "which our political alchemists seem to find increasing difficulty in successfully achieving." Mr. Hughes declared. "We call ourselves the ministers of justice, but we are reminded that the justice to be administered is justice according to law—the expression of the democratic will." The problems presented by the multiplicity of laws, the encroachments on liberty of learning, inadequate payment of judges, inordinate latitude granted lawyers, especially in sensational cases, and the need of proper standards of legal education for admittance to the bar were among the legal facets in Mr. Hughes' address. "Liberty today has such broad scope," he said, "that it taxes the incumen of the ablest statesmen to provide laws which even measurably assure it. It is no longer the simple matter of doing what one pleases in the wide open spaces, for there are no such spaces, and the danger from other libertines more than offsets the delight in uncontrolled freedom. "Liberty * * * should ever be found in the purpose to secure the freedom of the individual—an ordered freedom. But still freedom—subject only to such restraints as a sound and tolerant judgment determines to be essential to the mutuality of liberty. "The most ominous sign of our time is the indication of an intolerant spirit. It is more dangerous when armed, as it usually is, with sinister conviction. It can be exercised only by the genius which watched over our infancy and has guided our development—the American spirit of civil and religious liberty. "Democracy has its own capacity for tyranny. The interests of liberty are peculiarly those of individuals and hence of minorities, and freedom is in danger of being slain at her own altar if the passion for uniformity and control of opinion gather head." "Liberty is today a broader conception than ever before, for it increasingly demands protection; it demands protection against the spread of disease; it requires preventive measures and the segregation of those afflicted. It demands protection on the public highways against those frequent abusers of liberty who have subjected the perpetual philosophers of our day and other simple-minded pedestrians to the perils which in frequency and deadness are a sort only known to soldiers on the battlefield. "Mr. needs safeguards against organized endeavors to exploit individuals, whether those who labor in sanitary sweat shops or the consumera of necessaries constrained to purchase them at excessive prices." Turning from this subject, Mr. Hughes continued: "If progress has taught us anything, it is the vital need of freedom in learning. Perhaps this is the most precious privilege of liberty—the privilege of knowing, of pursuing untrammeled the paths of discovery, of inquiry, of invention. Like other privileges of liberty, it is not one to be reserved to a few; it belongs to all, and the only protection for all is that it does belong to all and that society is thus assured its full benefit. "If it be understood that the end to be attained is the diffusion of knowledge, and not its prevention, the means will be considered with a view to that end. As we reflect upon the course of history we cannot fail to appreciate how little we owe to governments and how much to education and to the methods and achievements of scientific inquiry." Red pepper that makes you sneeze has found a respectable and worthy use in the world, says Popular Science Monthly. It can save human life. Capt. Frank B. Gorn, Secretary of the Chemical Warfare Association, recently disclosed this discovery. A volatile oil is derived from the red pepper. This can be mixed with the illuminating gas that flows through your gas drain. Then if the same should blow out and gas escape into a room, any one breathing it is mixed with each violent cough and diving of the eyes that he has to lean from the gas index atmosphere. That accidental aggravation is prevented. Hypoxia Used on Principles in Medicine Britain, France, and Italy possess powers to burn and cause hypoxia in humans, and this is the reason why the British government has not allowed the use of the oil. During the year ended June 30, the number of families who left the United States was 20,145 in excess of the number coming in. This is disclosed in a statement by the National Industrial Conference Board, No. 247 Park Avenue. The board also states that in the case of nine other nationalities the emigration offset or exceeded the immigration. These nationalities are: Greeks, Hungarians, Bulgarians, Lithuanians, Jugoslavs, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese and Roumanians. Canada and Mexico, the board announces, are now our chief sources of immigrant labor. The total number of foreigners who came here during the year from all countries, was 294,314, as compared with 708,836 the preceding year, before the 2 per cent. quota went into effect. Countries which failed to fill their immigration quotas, were Germany, Great Britain, Irish Free State, Italy, Sweden and Czecho-Slovakia. "Owing to the curtalled immigration," the board says, "and the numerous departures of unskilled laborers, a net loss of 15.106 of this class was sustained during the year, as against a net gain of 70.742 in the preceding year." Australians Hit British Trade With Tariff By DAVID LOTH In the New York World SYDNEY. July 15.—The most charming vision a confirmed imperialist can evoke is that of numerous and vast colonies sending in to the mother country enormous supplies of raw material and accepting in exchange a nice rate of exchange too—the products of the homeland's industry. For the British Empire that vision is largely a dream of the past. Australia, where once the dream was a reality, is the outstanding example of the new regime in colonies, a regime where such dependencies are given the name of dominions. Australia is perfectly willing, even anxious, to supply England with raw materials, but she has become decidedly averse to taking English goods in exchange. This comparatively new attitude is one explanation of British industrial and commercial difficulties. In addition to losing markets wiped out by war England-in-lose large markets in the dominions as these develop more and more a national spirit of their own within the empire. The competition of English firms in Australia is resented by Australian manufacturers just as much as if the imported goods came from America or Germany or Japan. A fierce desire to be absolutely self-supporting and independent animates practically all shades of Australian opinion. Unemployment in England is taken into consideration only as a possible source of increased population for the commonwealth. By Dr. B. S. HERBEN of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association WHY HAVE BLIND PEOPLE? If it is true, and it is stated as so by authoritative people, that there are a hundred thousand totally blind people in this country, it might be well for us to stop and think of what this means or might mean to us. We have funds for the entertainment of these people cut off from the normal pleasures and pursuing of living and we have radios being built for them and classes for their instruction that they may make their living and so on, but that is not all we might do. A great deal of blindness may be prevented. How? As soon as a child is born the physician drops into the eyes of a baby a solution which is not harmful to the eyes; but does kill a certain germ which in the past caused a high proportion of blindness. The name of this germ is "gonococcus." All babies are treated alike in this respect. As a preventative this procedure does well. Why not eliminate gonorrhea and prevent any contamination which at any time may cause an infection of the eyes and if untreated, blindness, and if treated late, severe and uncorrectable damage to the eyes. Let no one use "the common towel." It should be prohibited. It is always advisable to carry one's own towel and wash cloth on a journey. Care should be exercised regarding the use of wood alcohol. Do not take yourself or your children to a poorly lighted theatre, where flickering films are used. Such places and pictures are the cause of eye strain. Arrange the lights in your home so that reading and sewing and any close work in done under good light, not glaring, not stirring can't eyes that if possible come from over the shoulder. See that school opitions are pertinent, too. Have the eyes examined if there is a snow in a child's forehead or if the eye water and sweat etc. etc. be so taken that the eye patient to a physician who is a specialist in this field. Now suppose that the child makes good pictures to work the flesh in high light though it is not independent with your own capacity. Fourty-five glasses with no glare damage. The board of examiners of the school system either licensed or rejected more than 22,000 candidates for teaching positions during the year ended June 30. This became known with the publication of the statistical report made by the former "chairman of the board, Louis Marks; who has been succeeded by William A. Hannig. The report shows that the examiners "flunked" nearly as many candidates as they granted licenses to; The actual figures were as follows: Granted licenses, 11,796 candidates; refused licenses, 10,208 candidates; outside experience adjusted, 726 candidates; grand total, 22,728 cases handled. The best record in any of the regular examinations was made by the candidates for License No. 1. Of those who participated in this 1,575 were successful and $17-rejected." The worst record was made in the examinations for vocational and technical teaching licences. Some of the figures, as for teacher-creek, drawing, sewing and music, indicate rather poor records, but these are isolated cases handled during the year, such as appeals from examinations held during the previous year. Several incomplete examinations, such as that for assistant to principal, give only the number rejected, but no figures on those who passed. These will be included in next year's report. Knights of Libya Rode Elephants in Their Fights It is said that formerly the Knights of Libya, fought with one another on elephants, and that one of these divisions of elephants had a tower engraved upon their tusks, but the others nothing. When night interrupted a fray the animals which were so marked were said to have been those which got the worst of it and fled to Mount Atlas. It is said that scores of years afterward some of the furtitives were caught, and the stamp cavity of the stamp found still fresh on the tusk and not worn away by time, says the Detroit News. It is the opinion of some writers that these tusks were horrible, because they grew out just where the temples are, and because they needed no sharpening of any kind, and remained as they grew, and did not, like teeth, fall out and then grow afresh. The animal is said to have had five nails and the sole of his foot had many furrows in it, and not being confined to hoofs, it stood on a soft flabby foot. Elephants that come from the marshes, and are taken there, are considered to be stupid and ill by the Indians, but those which come from the mountains they regard as wicked and treacherous, and unless they want something and not be relied upon by man, but the elephants of the plain are said to be good and tractable, and fond of learning tricks. PLAY AND WORK People are entitled to innocent pleasures, but the pursuit may easily become an evil, and especially is this evident with our group, in view of the peculiar situation it finds itself in because of various and divers reasons. To begin with, the Negro race is in its infancy—just a few days removed from slavery. It is poor and oppressed and has not yet seen but a faint beam of the economic sign. Its per capita accumulations, its industrial and other economic resources pale into significance in comparison with that of the white man, and because of his economic poverty the Negro is forced to undergo many other oppressions which otherwise would be imposed upon him. From the beginning of time, any people's first prominence in the national or international equation has come first from their ability to sustain themselves, and any people, who were independent economically, have always commanded their rights, politically and otherwise. Independence, whether of the individual or group of individuals, and whether economic, political or otherwise, is the result of consistent and persistent labor. It is the result of years of sacrifice and, different poll. There is nothing worth while in the world that can be secured without a price of relative value, and no individual or group of individuals can ever reasonably expect to find a place in the economic or political sun without paying the price through sacrifice and labor. The Negro has overexercised his natural bent for pleasure. He is entirely too given to "good times." He forgets that pleasure is to come when the task is done and that the more he gives himself to pleasures which he only realizes the true pleasure which only be found when the race is free of oppression and has found its place in the economic and political equation of his common country. There are now 2,000,000 more cars than telephones in gas for the United States according to statistics recently announced by the Western Ministry Company. A report by this company shows 771,740,668 cars in operation, in comparison with 12,900, 654 telephones, or 100 fewer cars per year, eighty-six are telephones in the United States.

Walter Hamilton (July) PALESTINE SHIP LINE IN RECEIVER'S HANDS Action Preliminary to Placing Service on Sounder Basis, Manager Asserts The American-Palestine Lines, Inc. the first company to operate steamships directly between New York, Palestine and Egypt, which owns the steamship President Arthur, was placed in the hands of a receiver in equity yesterday upon application of Morris J. Feldman, a creditor, whose claim amounts to $3,000. Federal Judge Thomas D. Thatcher appointed Lawrence S. Greenbaum equity receiver and directed that he give band of $25,000. The steamship company's assets are valued at $1,000,000 and its liabilities are placed at about $300,000. Greenbaum's petition set forth, that an equity receivership had become necessary. In order to save the lines from the ruin of the steamship, the time is now and time is necessary to need development. Judge Thatcher set October 3 as the date for a hearing on the question of continuing the receivership. After Mr. Greenbaum's appointment Captain Samuel L. Crossing, General Manager of the American-Palestine Line, issued the following statement: "The American-Palestine Lines, Inc., has consented to the appointment of a receiver in equity as the last means of preserving the Interests not only of creditors of the company but also its stockholders, who have invested in this enterprise not only for financial reasons but also in Furthermore of the plan of opening up direct communication with the Holy Land. "A variety of reasons has brought about the necessity for this step. Among them might be mentioned the fact that there is a considerable amount of past debt, indebtedness, on some of which action already has been instituted. The company is desolous of all creditors treated alike and of avoiding preferences. The company from its inception has been suffering from under-capitalization, and this has been a tremendous handicap in the operation and management of the company's affairs. "It is true that efforts have been made recently to secure further capital by increasing the authorized capital stock of the corporation, but unfortunately the public did not respond in time with an amount sufficient to bring into the treasury of the corporation enough funds substantially to help the company. "It is hoped and believed that out of the receivorship a reorganization can be worked out so that creditors of the company eventually will be paid dollar for dollar and that stockholders will find their investments unimpaired and the company continue to operate. "Already tentative plans have been formulated by some of the organizers and officers of the corporation with this end in view, and active negotiations already have been started with various financial interests to put the American-Palestine Lines, Inc., on a sound and profitable basis financially. These plans include the acquisition of at least two new steamers, so that more and better service can be given to the fleet. "It is urged that creditors and stockholders of the corporation should be indulgent until these plans of reorganization have been more fully developed. As soon as they have been whipped into shape prompt announcement thereof will be made." WASHINGTON. Rept. 7.—Stacking figures on the nation's traffic loan were made public here today. Two billion dollars—$20 a year for each man, woman and child in the United States—in the price which the country pays in life of life, accidents, loss of time through congestion, depreciated rent, estate values, and in many other ways for the lack of property developed trafic facilities and their control. This article is in need of data gathered by the Commission on Metropolitan Facilities of the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety. The final report of the committee will be presented to Secretary of Commerce for commissions to the president of the Commission on Street and Highway Safety. We were delayed in *Kingston* for one month. While there I had the pleasure of visiting it of Lily, Henrietta Vini art, a friend of Lily, Henrietta Vini art, at her home *Mon.Renpos* which is situated between Cross Roads and Half Way Tree, in the north of St. Andrews. As we drove through the gateway, it was a pleasing sight on either side of the drive. There is a border of small pine trees, lilies and other brightly colored flowers. The lawn on either side is dotted with tall mango trees of several varieties, breadfruit and other trees, making it cool and refresh. As I sat on the broad front veranda reading, sewing or just tiny dreaming and watching the lizzy lazies sunning themselves on the tree trunks and rocks, and listening to the birds, twitching and singing in the branches of the trees overhead. It seemed like a veritable paradise. I felt to think of the time when I should have to say goodbye to the many friends that I met there and who made my stay there so pleasant. When everything had been settled satisfactorily, and we were ready to sail, the captain and chief engineer refused to accompany us to Colon, and would not state the reason why. We found, later, that this was done to prevent us from going to Central America. As enemies had circulated the sights that our ship had caught fire in the harbor and had been destroyed. The captain bid on one of the United Free Company's ships, and one of the Black Cross nurses went aboard and collapsed, and forced him to report to the Customs officers for escaping nurses. We left ships such as much for Colon to carry on our mission. Friends of the Colon saw us to see us and goodness, all feeling overjoyed at the victory for the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, and the red, black and green. This was made possible by the kindness of Mr. McClintle, who also defended us against Mr. Serrant, in his exploit charger, which he made against the company search for which he afterward lobbied us. We were at sea for two and a half days. The sea was calm, and the weather fine. We arrived at Colon March 13, 6 a.m. After inspection by the doctor, Mr. Carter tried to arrive for the people to visit the slur, but the port master refused to give any one passess, saying he was not running a show. It was during our stay in Colon that I had the opportunity to visit the Pamuana Canal, and also Pamuana, which I described at length in a former article. We had many difficulties while there, and when we were ready to leave we were unable to do so; the chief mate would not continue the journey with us, which day necessitated our procuring more provisions and also seal. The day we expected to call the captain left the ship early in the morning and while we waited for him to return to the ship, papaura were served on the company for the day of the first mate which delivered us the rest of the day. After the salary of the mate had been paid, the ship was cleaned by seven clock. The captain failed to return to the ship. We waited until evening, when the captain and his wife, who probably something had happened to him, at last the captain was compelled to appeal to the commissioner to procure a captain and first mate, who reached the ship shortly after 5 o'clock, and by 10.15 we continued our journey to Port Limon, Costa Rica.

INFLUENCE OF ENVIRONMENT Wrong Surroundings and Friends Make Normal Characters Abnormal — Influence of Parents and Teachers Often Harmful By WILLIAM HEALY. Director: Judge Taker Foundation, Boston, Mass. The greater features of a given individual's government that lead him to misconstrict is perhaps the main point to be known. If we study him with common sense, throughness we frequently find that certain members of the family, certain companions or neighborhood alliances, certain school classes or special teachers, arise in temporary to that behavior which is not at all shown under other conditions. I could give hundreds of illustrations of this. For the treatment, if we decide, as in most cases we have to decide, that the individuals own personality is not immediately alterable, we must try to place him under environmental conditions where his undesirable behavior trends, will be most likely to be brought out. I am to be misunderstood as believing that there is little value in discipline. On the contrary, I think discipline that is educative, that includes gentle discipline, is of more value in most of these cases than anything else. With some psychopathic personalities the steady regime of a really good, juvenile correctional institution over a prolonged period offers the best chance for lenient treatment. In our work we have seen many children who in one set of circumstances, with morning parents, with an everstable family, with a loving or a very persecutive or living more conditions for sleeping, and so on, have shown markedly as depressive personality traits, and yet who under greater and better conditions have seemed entirely different individuals. So it may be confidently asserted that the person with moderately erotic tendencies who is guided into good habits of mind and body, perhaps if necessary posed in another environment, is often able to get along well. Thus the social aspects of a case are by no means the least consideration either for discovering the causes of trouble or foruring the trouble.

A very good mother of a very unstable and badly behaved child, because of her neurotic condition, utterly spoiled) child said: "Then you tell me that I, who have done so much for my child, am not the proper person to bring her up. That's too hard to believe." Now do we always get co-operation from teachers and principals, who either have preconceived notions of what a child needs, particularly in the way of discipline, or who feel that the school system cannot be disrupted to give specific privileges to a child who is not physically crippled. In fact, it sometimes is much worse than that, for the personality of the teacher may be at-fault, and a mutual dislike based on prior experiences may be at the root of personal attitudes which are no small obstacle to better behavior on the part of the child. How much have we learned? "That crazy teacher, how I hate her!" "That hard faced teacher, it makes me nervous every day to be in her room!" "That sarcastic teacher, you can never do anything to please her!" Imagine a sensitive child being obliged every day to face a situation which is so distasteful. With all the adhentication which I have for the teaching profession and for most members of it whom I know, I sometimes am compelled to believe that the greatest requisite for good teaching is the fine personal influence that can come only through understanding the natural history of the child, and this must include Let Good Luck Be Wish You and Your Family.

Actually, fortifying hair is not required. Unequalled for Dandruff, Ritching, Sore Scalp and Falling Hair, it is also the magic it must not be put where hair is not wanted. Lettuce is the most effective "After having used every known advertised herb, I used Root Hair Grower unusually effective for any one to attempt to reform the way in which the children have a great deal of time and overalight given them. A single child or a group of children will need new interests to command them either through change of residence or chaup in recreational or other activities in connection with which the delinquency has developed. We find ourselves, in this matter, drawing particularly on the following conception of possibilities. Change of family residence or placing the child with relatives; putting him in touch with entirely new centres or features of recreational life; "placing out" for a longer or shorter time by child helping agencies; change of schools or of teachers or of the curriculum to fit the child's special abilities, disabilities, interests or needs; attacking the problem of group misconduct; the appeal of probation officers or others to guardians of a child's wayward compulsions; or through juvenile court action; and finally, change of various living conditions or habits if these appear to play some part in developing delinquent tendencies. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2—When public schools re-open next week hundreds of anarchic miners' children will be absent. Since the suspension affecting 145,000 men went into effect, according to advises received today from the region, youngsters have been taking jobs to help support their families during the idleness of elder bread-winners. Working certificates for youngsters had been issued by school superintendents by the score, it was said. Otherwise the third day of the suspension passed without report of change in the situation anywhere in the ten anarchic counties. Squabbles, taking out of maintenance work in the area being adjusted, by the officials of the local unions, it was said.

The program for the evening was as follows: Opening song: "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," followed by prayer and Scripture reading; selection by the choir; solo, by Mrs. Morrow; original poem, Mrs. Nettle Hunter.

OAKLAND: CALIFORNIA If Negroes as a whole could only realize and understand what the Universal Negro Improvement Association is doing for the Ethiopian race, no further urging for co-operation and support, would be necessary. Sunday afternoon, August 30, the Oakland Division hold another one of its history-making mass meetings. A large and representative gathering was present, and a wholesome and extremely interesting program was rendered. After the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains" was sung, the official prayer, "God of the Right, Our Battles Fight" was repeated, led by Rev. C. A. Davis. The chant "God Bless our President" was next sung by the choir; after which the president led the reading of the Sid Baalam, Vice-President Manuel Hodge in a well chosen remarks next introduced Mr. J. A. Warnie, as the master of ceremonies. Mr. Warnie gave a short and spirited address. The Juveniles, sponsored by Sgt. Joseph Johnson, rendered a short but thrilling and inspiring program. Master Joseph Johnson, our boy prodigy, after an absence of several weeks on account of sickness, recited as an introduction, "Again I am at my post of duty," followed by "A Toast to this dear Flag of Mine, the Red, Black and Green." Lengthy and vociferous applause was given this very popular member of the Juveniles. Determined that the feminine portion of the Juveniles should not be outdone, Miss Ruth Clark, outshine past exhibitions in her condition, of a beautiful piano solo, entitled "Hearts and Flowers." As the family of Clark's is one of varied talents, Miss Mary Clark read another of her original papers, an essay on "The Evil Done to the U. N. L. A." Much scriptural correlation was quoted. Truly the minds of some of our youth is farther advanced and developed concerning the importance of the program, than many of their schooled older. To climax a well-rounded and balanced program, and further claims on feminine recognition, Miss Ruth Clark recited an original poem, entitled "The Juveniles of Today." This was an oratorical gem, and skillfully presented. Much truth concerning the responsibility of those entrusted with the destiny of the Juveniles, was expounded. Acting Lady-President, Miss Frances Jackson, paid a tribute of praise and appreciation to the juveniles, for the excellent program, rendered and complimented their instructor, Sgt. Johnson, for his efforts. A song was their rendered by the choir. For the benefit of those not familiar with the organization's program and ideals, the Preamble, Alms and Objects to the Constitution were read by A. S. Gray. A dery and ringing lecture was neq heard from a preacher by the name of Parker. The Negro's present condition mental and economical was extensively dealt with. Self government and anationhood for all desirous of relieving our manyills, was emphasized. The song "Where He Leads Me, I Will Follow," prepared the minds of all for our weekly treat, the President-General's message, read by secretary G. E. Thuman. Timely remarks and comment were then made by the president and Rev. C. Williams. The trustees were next called upon to make preparations for the collection. Money were solicited for the building fund, and an appeal made for financial assistance to the Parent Body. Notes were read, announcements made, National Anthem sung with all attending and Legionnaires at attention; after which "Eless be the Tie" was sung, and meeting dimissed. ARTHUR S. GRAY: Reporter.

That there may be a vast wind of invisible ether blowing past the earth as it winds along through space is an idea presented by Dr. E. E. Free in the "Forum." No one pretends to know just what the ether is. Disciples of the Einstein theory say that it is nothing; that it does not exist except in the imagination, of physicists. Other, experimenters maintain its reality. They believe that it is a real medium, although an extremely thin and intangible one. It is believed to fill all space and to carry the rays of light—for example, the light from the distant stars. If this ether is a real medium the earth must be moving through it at a considerable speed. The earth moves around the sun. The solar system is also moving relative to the other stars. There ought to be a strong wind of ether past the earth, just as a wind of air blows past a moving airship. Previous attempts to detect this wind of ether have failed, but a recent test, made by Prof. Dayton C. Miller, is reported as successful. The new test, Dr. Free says, "may prove to be the most important 'scientific experiment of several years." Divisiona in Cuba To: Whom It May Concern: This is to certify that the Honorable Richard Bachelor, the duly accredited representative of the Universal Improvement Association to the Island of Cuba, has been reappointed.

Facts as simple as that A is A and B is B cannot be distorted. "I do not regard Americans as saints, utterly different from ordinary people, who make altruism their sole policy. To say that Americans lacked egalism would be to insult them openly. If they are in the habit of talking of humanity with their mouths, still it must be remembered that hypocrisy is one of the most common qualities of mankind. Andre Tardieu is said to have been greatly amazed at an American who at one time favored the independence of the Philippine Islands, but was later found seeking to obtain the post of Governor-General for himself. Inconsistencies of this nature are neither rare nor deserving of wonderment, ideals and realities are two different things. This is quite as true with Americans as with other peoples. The habit of adhering to the right in idealism, but to the left in actual practice is the common way of the world, especially in international affairs. Then why should Americans alone be expected to prove an exception in this respect? "What of the traditional policy of the United States toward Mexico? Was not the major part of what is the United States today at one time in possession of Mexico, having been transferred to the present occupants at some unknown time? What was the Washington Government's policy in dealing with Panama? How did America oppress Colombia? Did she not obtain a permanent lease of the Canal Zone through an agreement with a rebel government? Not only did Mr. Root say that the prosperity of Haiti, Mexico, Colombia, Nicaragua and the other States of Central America was possible and feasible only under the protection of the United States, but in actual fact that country established a sort of protectorate in the political and financial affairs of those States by means of interference whenever trouble arises within them, among them, or with European powers, especially in the realm of finance. "America accomplished this by methods which she condemned when used by other nations in other quarters of the globe. Moreover, in so doing she was not only conscious of, but publicly declared the meaning of her conduct. But in the case of the United States, all things are attributed to and justified by the celebrated Doctrine of President Monroe." Dr. Blanche M. Haines is now director of the division of maternal and infant hygiene of the Children's Bureau at Washington. She was formerly director of the Michigan bureau of child hygiene and public health nursing. IMPROVE YOUR BEAUTY WITH Miss Lyda D.

TO THE BRIDE Apologia: So many folks have trod your mind here and told you you'll please excuse me, Mr. Kipling. If you can rise before the dawn is breaking And in the furnace make a lively fire. And yank the curlers from your head that's aching. But still look beautiful, despite your fire.

Turks Discarding Fez And Banning-the Sheik CONSTANTINOLE, Sept. 4.—More and more the newly born Turkish Republic is abandoning old Turkish customs and substituting European methods, while the fex and turban as national headdress seem to be going into the discard. Today the Council of Commissars decreed that all officials must dress in European fashion and wear hats. Only priests are to be permitted to wear turbans.

Court Holds Anti-Slavery Fund Is Legally Dead (From Columbia-Prega Bureau) PHILADELLIHA.—A trust fund adjudicated before Judge Van Dusen in Orphans' Court last week bequeathed the sum of $100 to the Pennsylvania Anti-Slavery Society "to promote the object of said society." The bequest could not be made, however, as the court decided in a previous adjudication that the society had legally passed out of existence. The fund was left by Churchill Huston, a resident of the old Spring Garden district, who died in January, 1858, and set aside $5,000 as a trust fund in favor of his daughter. Upon her death the fund was to be divided among other legatees or their heirs. The trust fund, which was originally intended for expenditure for purposes of abolishing slavery, now amounts to about $50,000 and will be divided among the numerous descendants of the original legatees. The daughter, Mary Jane Huston, who had the incomes of the fund for life, died October 16, 1924. THE WOMAN'S PART IN RACE DEVELOPMENTS In Business, Society and the Home, Woman Wields a Mighty Influence "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world." The truthfulness of this saying is a matter of common knowledge. But is there no other way in which a woman can play her part in this world, even though she has not been privileged to be the rocker of a cradle? Surely there is. Every human being can exercise a certain amount of influence, therefore, every woman, whether she be a business woman or a society woman, can take an active part in moulding the lives of many individuals. The Influence of the Business Woman Let us take the business woman, the woman who has to spend seven hours or more every day in an office. Apparently there seems no opportunity for her to do anything else but her work, but remember the old adage which says "Actions, speak louder than words." By her carefulness, her calmness, her truthfulness, her honesty, her sweetness of disposition, her punctuality, she may create a lasting impression on the minds of her fellow-workers. Such a woman's influence will, like the hidden seed, work silently, unknowingly, tiking root all the white, untillike the plant it bursts forth, finally to grow in all its grandeur, as the shaper of many destinies. The Society-Woman. The society woman, even, may make her particular sphere of activity. Though she may be in the ballroom, yet it would not be inappropriate to say kind words, do kind deeds, be considerate for others, and try by her actions to lead others into all noble things. Of course, the hand that rocks the cradle can do much more than the society bells. Up in that hand is entrusted, the training of young ones, and it is written "As the twig is bent the trees incline." Every Negro woman can play a great part in promulgating racial doctrines. By elevating her educational status, by cultivating the womanly virtues, she may help to destroy that idea of inferiority, and show the world the equality of races. As she is the daily money spender, she may show her appreciation of her own Negro business men by placing her purchases as much as possible into their hands. By precept and example, she may influence her fellow-women to scarcity to see all that is good in white only, to cease to admire only white men, but rather try to help their own in reaching that standard which commands the respect of the world. The field of activity, therefore, for women is vast and varied, and the feeling should actuate every woman, that she is going to play her part, however small, in raising the status of her race educationally; socially and politically. MEASLES By the New York Black Cross Nurses Measles is an acute infectious disease occurring mostly in children. It is only within a comparatively recent period that measles has come to be universally regarded as a distinct and independent malady. The disease known as German measles is still slighter than measles, though the former is probably often mistaken for true measles. There are few diseases so infectious as measles and its rand spread in epidemics is no doubt due to the fact that infection is most potent in the earlier stages, in the first three days even before its real nature has been shown by the appearance of the rash. Hence the difficulty of timely isolation and the readiness with which the disease is spread. Another fact which sometimes assists the spread of measles is that the temperature often falls to normal on the second day and the child appears to be much hotter so that it is again allowed to mix with its playmates, owing to the mistaken idea that it is suffering merely from a cold, till the rash appears on the fourth day and shows the real nature of the malady. It is possible also that infection may be carried from one place to another by clothing, toys, etc., although the tenacity and activity of the infective agent is in this respect much less marked than in the cases of scarletina and smallpox. Of the nature of the infecting agent nothing definite is known though recent investigations into the cause of other infectious forms of disease make it probable that this is of a bacterial nature. The treatment of measures embraces the preventive measures to be adopted in the case of an outbreak by the isolation of the sick at as early a period as possible. Epidemics have often, especially in limited localities, been curtailed by such a precaution. In families with little house accommodations this measure is frequently, for the reason already referred to regarding the communicable period of the disease, ineffectual, nevertheless, where practicable, it ought to be tried, for it is of doubtful wisdom to expose the healthy children in a family to the risk of infection under the idea that they must necessarily take the disease at some time or other. The unaffected children should likewise be kept from school for a time (probably about three weeks outflow from the outbreak in the family, if no other one occur in the household) and all clothing which has been contact with the patient should be subjected to treatment. Just recently a number of our leading women's clubs have raised the questions: "What are our powder puffs made of? Where do they come from? Under what conditions are they manufactured?" It is now recognized that anything that comes into such intimate contact with the skin as does this ubiquitous little pad; and does such vallant service, is worthy of the most careful scrutiny into its character and preparation. What do you look for when you go to purchase a powder puff? Absolute cleanliness and purity first, as a matter of course. This cannot be guaranteed unless the puff has undergone complete sterilization. Then it must be the kind that is freely washable, for every woman realizes that her puff gets contaminated very quickly with stains powder and dirt from the face, and may soon become a source of dangerous infection, no matter how sterilite it was when delivered to her in the manufacturer's sealed compact. From a utilitarian standpoint, the puff must have just the right degree of roughness and evenness of its surface to distribute powder smoothly; and it must have a capacity for retaining powder—not only for the sense of complacency it gives the carrier, always to know she has some powder in reserve, but also to prevent scattering powder over her dress every time she goes to use it. Generally speaking, there are two kinds of material suitable for powder puffs, cotton and wool. Obviously both of these may be had in many varying degrees of quality. The cotton or velour puff, as it is ordinarily known in the trade, is popular on account of its price. It bag also a certain quality, which paradigmatically 'enough'—the trade, termed 'silkiness', which appeals to many buyers, so that some women prefer the velour puff for that reason alone. However, 'this silkiness does not add to its virtuosus as a powder carrying medium'. It is not very satisfactory to wash a cotton puff, either, because it has an inner padding which 'reacts' or humps when wet. The regular wool puff is a plush material, women on the loom. There is a slight hardness to the wool, not found, in the cotton, and it is due to this property that powder clings so well to the wool puff. Then, too, the mechanical construction of the fabric is such that it will open up to receive the powder very readily, so that a slight pressure always brings out a reserve supply. A wool puff requires no padding, so it may be washed without losing either its shape or resiliency. There are a few women who object to the wool puff because of the scratchy feel of the surface when applied to the face. Then there is the Lumbung puff. This is wool, too, of course, but instead of being woven into a table the skin comes along with the wool to form the completed puff. The cost is naturally greater, but it has this advantage: The wool is softer, and being in place naturally it myers sheets as sometimes happens with the woven product. Be sure that your powder puffs are guaranteed sterilized before reaching you and that they are protected from all contacts and contamination by q-sealed envelopes. Legalizing of Religious Marriages in Russia MOSCOW, Sept. 12. - Sweeping changes in the Soviet Russian marriage law, just annurated by a legal commission of the Central Executive Committee, will come into force within a few weeks. Under the revised laws a religious ceremony will constitute legal wedlock, instead as hitherto civil registration only, which is the case in France. Permanent marital relations without any ceremony whatsoever also constitute legal wedlock. The right of adoption, not recognized in the old code, henceforth legally exists. The promise to the new clauses insists that their purpose is to bring about real equality between both parties to the marriage. The Soviet law realizes that even in the Russian Socialist State women still are generally in a position of economic inferiority to man. Thus men have evaded the obligation of supporting their families by pleading that there was no civil ceremony or that there was no ceremony at all, which henceforth will no longer be possible. At the same time there is full reciprocity. A wife earning money is compelled to support her husband if the latter is unable to earn for any valid reason. Minor changes aim to simplify divorce, apportion alimony, more exactly and define the status of the "family", which shall consist of parents and children only instead of, as in France, including grandparents. uncles, aunts, etc. A mass of legal verbiage fails to hide the fact that the establishment of the legality of the religious ceremony is yet another big concession on the part of the Bovier authorities.

JAPAN AND CHINA IN THE COMING CONFERENCE Now that an international Congress on the Chinese situation is about to convene, the question arises in our mind as to what attitude will Japan adopt toward China in the adjustment of concessions and revenues. England, France and America see China through the greedy eyes of the white man, ever ready to grab from the other fellow, who does not look like him, for the preservation and enhancement of "white superiority." Japan surely will not forget the tie of race, especially its face of the Astatic Exclusion Bill passed by America recently. Yet she has to be discreet and diplomatic in dealing with white America, wily John Bull and hypocritical France. The Hawaii Hoei opines as follows: "If she shaves in her tos with the nations of the West she will lose forever her prestige in the Orient, while if she takes her stand as the champion of Asia she will have at her back a half billion of people, and will easily become the dominant power in the Turianian ascendency that is dawning in the East. "Will Japan continue to bow her head humbly at the gates of America, begging admission" or will she take her stand as the outpost of Asia in the Pacific, and, with raised hand, cry to the nations that are clamoring at the doors of China: "You Shall Not Pass!" The world is marshalling its forces to the tide of 'tune first.' White civilization must be preserved,cries the white man, yellow prestige must be in the ascendency,cries the Asiathe, and the feeble but determined voice of the block man waits a United States of Africa for the scattered sons and daughters of Ethiopia. China is determined to throw off the pole of foreign oppression and to guide the destiny of her own people to glory and to power. She has her teening millions of humanity, she has territory, and now the lay masses are being enlightened and guided by the student class. It argues that China as a progressive nation is being reinearned, and will soon make her vote heard among the powerful nations of the world. And her strength and might will be felt, in upholding the principle of Asia for the Asiathe. In the struggle of race groups, strategy will be used by all parties concerned, which, at times, may be misconstrued, but the ends must be served, the goal must be reached. The call of race is uppermost in the hearts and minds of mankind today and who to tell what the future holds? "Peace and plenty may yet mark the path of man," but not until all reach a common standard of human development, and learn to respect the rights of each other.

The un-American antice of Philip Williams, the naval captain who served for a while as "autocrat of the Virgin Islands," have resulted in his transfer from a soft-burth in the islands to the regular routine of naval drudgery. That he has at last been "granted" is in itself a clique for publitation to all decent Americans, black and white, in the islands, but the Navy Department is still unregenerate in its attitude towards the civil rights and liberties of the Virgin Island people. In order that its Southern attitude may be clearly understood it has offered as Williams' successor Martin D. Trench, Commandant of the Charleston (S. C.) Navy Yard, an individual who presages his advent by broadcasting his intention to "carry on the policies of my predecessor." Those policies included not only the suppression of nineteen-twentieths of the votes of the people, but the automatic refusal to allow the legislature, elected by the remaining twentieth, to perform the duty for, which it was elected. They also included the addition to this legislature: by the official act of the governor, of white persons who were not even American citizens, but owed political allegiance to two different European powers. These aliens were, treasonously put in control of a portion of the governing powers of the United States—and this by an officer in the United States Navy. The plan failed of fruition only because it was blocked by the requisite refusal of the people's party in the legislature, whose Americanism was greater than that of the man who should have been its highest official exponent. These are some of "the police of my predecessor" which Governor Trench pledges himself to carry on even in advance of any knowledge of the tangle situation in the islands. We wonder how the Navy Department will stomach. Governor Trench's declaration of intention to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor in the matters which we have mentioned above. It looks as if more mischief is in store. Surely there must be some Northern white men available in the Navy Department. Why this mischief on Southern whites for the governorship of the islands? While the war was on and Woodrow Wilson, a Southerner, was at the helm of the nation's affairs. It was at least understandable that the South should get the lion's share of training camps and government business. It was natural that that section should have a disproportionate number of officers in the Army and Navy. But we are not at war now, and this uninterrupted succession of Southern Caissers for these little islands can have but one meaning. These Southern men are intended and expected to carry on "The Southern point of view" into the islands and maintain it there by the traditional Southern methods. When it is remembered that it is the maintenance of the "Southern point of view" and the practice of these Bourbon methods which have been the main causes of the discontent now prevailing in the islands, it seems mischievous to say the least, to persist in promoting more discontent by the continuance of the same methods. It is obvious that the officials of the Navy Department do not wish the islanders any good. And all this only serves to give point to their case against the continuation of Naval Rule and to their demands for the installation of a Civil form of government in which the democratic laws of the United States may have a chance to function, and bear fruit. The present chaos in the islands is a stunting degree to our country and a blot on the escheouthe of Congress which was responsible, on the first instance, for its establishment. In the meanwhile Virgin Islanders will all their grievances and initiate public opinion in the United States until Congress is appointed to taking such action as will be establish the good reputation of the United States in the Caribbean Sea. Upon this, at any rate, they are all agreed. Virgin Islanders on the mainland, who are as many in number as those in the islands, are putting their shoulders to the wheel as never before. Their constructive work of various sorts for the alleviation of distress in the islands has been chronically many times in these columns and hardly needs any further elaboration. And now they have decided to expand and deepen their propaganda of protest in conjunction with that of their countrymen at home. Preparations were made under the auspices of the Virgin Islands Congressional Council to have two members of the Colonial Councils, Mr. Jean B. Hostes of St. Thomas, and Mr. Halvor V. Borg of St. Croix, present the facts of the situation in the Virgin Islands to an American and Virgin Islands audience at a great mass meeting held at the Renaissance Casino, on the afternoon of August 30, 1925. For the first time, the case of the Virgin Islanders at home was adequately presented here, by themselves. It was the opening gun in the new campaign to arouse the conscience of the American people to the autocracy and tyranny which exist under our flag and constitution and in the name of our common country. With them we pledge our undying loyalty to the principle that no American community, whether white or black, shall be governed except by Our own cooperative consent. This Americanism as we understand it and nothing less than that will satisfy us. Presence of Negro in Cafe Leads to Shooting (From The Los Angeles Record) Alfred B. Wilson, a waiter, is in city still today formally charged with assault to commit murder. Wilson is alleged to have shot and wounded Dr. T. E. Taggart in a cafe at 629 South Olive street, following a quarrel over the presence of a Negro Servant at the doctor's table. According to reports, Taggart, his daughter Irma, and her Negro maid entered the cafe and sat down to a table. Wilson refused to wait on the maid demanding that she leave. Words ensued. Wilson left the room but returned a moment later and shot twice at Taggart. One bullet took effect in Taggart's arm. Deputy District Attorney Fee has issued a formal complaint against Wilson. How Races May Best Attain A Sense of Self-Dignity Races must learn to cultivate resent for self and neighbors if racial friction is to be avoided. Rabbi Louis L. Newman declared recently at services of Temple Emanu-El at the First Unitarian Church. Rabbi Newman was discussing Mrs. Sarah G. Millin's book, "Kids' Stepchildren," and Eugene Q'Erren's play, "All Gods Chillens Get Wings." "Individual instances of crossing between races may occur," but often tracedy and heartache result," said Rabbi Newman. "Each race should obtain so high a degree of excellence through itself that it should not seek alliance with other races in order to attain a sense of self-dignity. Prosperity Closes Poorhouses (From Columbia Press Bureau) WASHINGTON.—The county poorhouse may soon be a thing of the past. A survey made by the U. S. Department of Labor discloses that there are still more than 2,200 poorhouses in the United States, but that in some of them only one inmate is being provided for. Mr. Marcus Garvey, from his "prison cell," as he himself puts it, continues to send cheering messages to his followers, and his influence among them seems to be as great as ever; small wonder then that they are hard at work to effect his release. We may not agree with his methods nor with all what he says; but we do not belong to the class of Africans who praise as the white man praises or condemnas as he does. Wherefore we have not found in Marcus Garvey, so much of sin, and blot as imputed to him by white men. After all, what is the man's ideal? He stands for the emancipation of his race from alien thraldom which is but the task that lenders have set themselves since the days of Moses, and if there are Africans living who do not cherish the hope that in course of time, there may arise in Africa great and powerful States occupying positions similar to those now held in the European States, then such people are not a valuable asset to the race, since they talk the only ideal that matters and are content to continue in their sorrow to the end of time. We must set this ideal before us, be bequeathed from generation to generation, until it is realized in the fulness of time, the ideal that in the course of the centuries Africans will also become absolutely independent and masters in their own household, and so develop ourselves towards that state. We have history to encourage us in adopting this high ideal, for history does not show that any one race, or one group of races, has ever succeeded in keeping another race under subjection for ever. If Marcus Garvey therefore, talks of founding a native empire in Africa, it is not an empty dream although it may be characterized as trying to build Rome in a day. Africans have got to build their Rome but not in a day, and our work now should consist in making our estimates, preparing our plans and gathering up materials for posterity. When the Babylonian and Egyptian Empires, among others, flourished and their monarchs, were a building hanning gardens, perimeters and admixtures. It could not have occurred to the people living in those remote ages, nor would they have believed had they been told, that in these latter days there would arise in Europe, the existing great empires, kingdoms and republics. It is a dead certainty that Europe was unknown in the day of the ancient Egyptians and other great nations of the east, and it is doubtful whether that Continent was then inhabited. We know from the writings of Julius Caesar and others that as late as the first century before Christ, Europe was inhabited by races more sunk in barbarism than any that can be found in Africa today. And if Europe has emerged from the depths of barbarism to its present standard of civilization, no thinking African would follow the white man to scout at Garvey's dream as to the future of Africa.

P.)—The saving of Palestine by ceasing the habit of smoking is the latest idea of some of the Arab leaders. They have decided to conform with the commandment of the Koran which prohibits Moslems from smoking. Five Arab notables have decided to quit smoking and establish a fund for a bank "to save Palestine from the Zionist menace." The bank is to be known as the "Smoke Bank." The Arab newspaper El Carmel warmly supports the idea and urges Arabs to give up the weed, and turn over the money thus saved to the "Smoke Bank." Rewarding Individuals; Hoodwinking the Majority From Columbian Press Bureau WASHINGTON—Through the political influence of Miss Hallee Q.

E: Pulliam, de fecha 22 del mes en curso, por la cual comunica a los Delegados Receptores (Interventores de Aduana) que, en virtud de reglamento aprobado por el Negociado de Asuntos Insulares, (Departamento de la Guerra, Estados Unidos) los empleados que hubieren cumplido diez años en el servicio de la recaudaçon aduanaera al 31 de diciembre próximo, recibiran una bonificación igual al cinco por ciento del montante de los sueldos durante los últimos doce meses y que esa bonificación sheca cada año, incluyendo suersivamente a los que fueren cumpliendo los diez años en el servicio, y siempre que existieren fondos no gastados, de ese cinco por ciento. La circular termina anunciando el envío de listas con el fin de que sean señaladas omisiones u otros errores en que se pudiere incurriir. Preparando la raza para mayores realizaciones—Enemigos del movimiento no podrán soportar la presión de su influencia—Nada extinguirá la flama ardiente de libertad que comforta el corazón de nuestro elemento—Continuemos en la marcha hacia el enaltecimiento—En no lejano dia entonaremos el hosanna: Africanos, nunca jamás series esclavos Las buenas nuevas que hasta nosotros llegan de todas partes, con motivo de la influencia satisfactoria que nuestro movimiento ejerce, principalmente en el continente africano, nos alientan en gran manera hacia la continuación de nuestra lucha por la adquisición del sagrado derecho de una raza. Dicha influencia ha dejado sentir su efecto no solamente en el hemisferio occidental sino también en Africa, y nada sería más placentero para las cancillerias europeas, que la noticia de la disolución de esta prepotente institución nuestra. Atonitos nos hemos quedado frente a esa infilta determinación que ha debido ser inciada por el señor Pulliam y convertida en precepto por quien no tiene calidad ninguna, para determinar de fondos pertenecientes al Estado, sobre los cuales no haya recaido aplicación. Atribución exclusivisima del Congreso Nacional. Nuestra determinación más lleva al pleno convencimiento, de que tal satisfacción no ha de ser experimentada por dichos poderes. Aprisiónense nuestros directores, redúzcanse a cenizas todos nuestros Liberty Halls, distribuyanse millones de monedas entre los iscariotes de la raza y muy poco crédito será obtenido de tal actitud destructiva, pues con más ardor ha de brillar la flama de emancipación arraigada en el alma del negro progresista, después de siete años de constante lucha con la borasca en el inmenso mar de las injusticias humanas. No nos duele o no nos doleria que los empleados de la Receptología General de Aduanas, especialmente los dominicanos, fueran bonificados; pero si nos repugna que así, por propia decision, quien no tiene para ello facturadas, deterring por susser la deliberação sobre los fondos del Estado, libres de aplicación y mucho más sin la previa aquiescencia del inicio dueno de los fondos en acceso, el Estado mismo, esto es, haciendo la decision multilateral. Estamos altamente satisfechos con el resultado de nuestra labor obtenido hasta el presente, pero ello no indica que hemos de abandonar los remos descansando en nuestra barca de progreso, dejándola a merced de los vientos contrarios. Nuestra ardua labor se halla aún en embrión. No solamente tenemos que continuar nuestro esfuerzo hacia la realización de nuestro programa, sino que también debemos estar sentinela alerta a cada instante, para prevenir ejecución del maquiavelismo enemigo e impedir que este adelante un sólo paso en nuestro terreno de adelanto, tan laboriosa y gallardamente conquistado. Como? Bonitaciones para los empleados de la Recestoria del excedente del cinco. Por ciento cuando los depósitos de la Aduiana no garantizan la buena aplicación de su propio destino; por falta de capacidad y por el deterioro que en ellos ha obrido el tiempo, así como por la mala estructura de los de reciente construccion. Al insolvente po regla general al salir de su casa, le preocupa muy poco el hechar el cerrojo a la puerta; pero el rico no solamente se serciora de que todo esté seguro, sino que adquiere los servicios de las agencias protectoras; para que estas velen por sus intereses. La máximo es clara y terminante: Todo aquel que algo tiene y estima, toma toda medida de precaución. En la misma situación se halla la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra; ella tiene una reputación que protejer y un tesoro que preservar, los cuales nos estimulan constituyéndonos en sus guardianes inespugnables, dispuestos a defenderlos a toda costa, con todo el valor y con todo el poder que el Gran Creador nos hava conferido. ; Imposible! Eso seria un nuevo átentado contra el Tesoro, un regalo a los empleadas, especialmente a los extranjeros, de los cuales muchos no sohan en su país con las pingues canonigas que aqui disfrutan. ; Por que con el remanente del año pasado $ (29.565.18) y el que acumulara este año, no se emprenden la reedificación en las grandes reparaciones que demandan los intereses que circulan por los depositos de la Aduana, los cuales más de una vez han sufido perjuicios durante la actual época de lluvias? Los resultados obtenidos por los grandes esfuerzos de esta institución durante el corto período de su existencia, empiezan a demostrar al mundo el poder y la potencia del negro. Muchos conceptuarán sus propósitos como un sueño imposible de llevar a la realización, pero no ha de tardar un año más en que haya de celebrarse una importante conferencia en la cual ha de verse repreensentado todo pueblo civilizado, y cuyo tópico principal ha de ser el negro y su programa de emancipación. Con el objeto de obtener de tales situaciones el mejor resultado posible, debemos estar dotados de la debida preparación tanto en lo intellectual como en lo material. Haga el señor Pulliam obra reconstructiva material en las aduanas y verá cómo el pais apreciará y estimará su gestion: pero es que senala la circular que impugnamos y que impugnaremos - atenido con disfraz de filantropia - es inadmisible, porque el remanente del cinco por ciento de las rentas, destinado a gastos de caudación, son fondos del Estado, no aplicados a ningún fin, por la instrucción o por el funcionario investido para ello de calidad, si hubiere, alguno con tál investidura. Si el resto de la humanidad cree, que cuatrocientos millones de seres han de permitir que se les aveje, que se les asesine, que se les linche por illo tempore, estan muy equivocados. Si tales hechos inhumanos han de consumados por los tal llamados pueblos civilizados en esta era de luz y de progreso, esta organización esta determinada a que su ejecución no sea efectuada individualmente, y conqué poder se podrá exterminar a centenares de millones en un sólo intento? Por ello nuestro lema de unir en un sólo pensamiento, de unir en un sólo haz prenotente todo el elemento de nuestro pueblo. En buena hora que el Negociado de Asuntos Insulares, por su propia iniciativa o por la del Receptor General, inspeccione o administre dentro de los limites de la Convención de 1907; pero de ahí a que tome medidas o determinaciones de disposición fuera de esos limites, es lo inadmissible: una intervención intolerable, que el poder ejecutivo no observará, sino que vetará definitivamente, pensamos. Es lamentable que conceptuándosenos como la nota inferior en la escala de los pueblos, existan aun individuos que se precian de intelectuales, quienes ocultando el remordimiento de su conciencia por sus actuaciones, sombrefo en mano rinden su honor al maquiavelismo para que este ejerza su presión sobre la causa justificada de su propia raza. Si es deos por si denominados protectores de las masas, sintieran por un instante en su fuero interno la influencia del bien, habrian de convertirse en verdaderos hombres, con orgullo de formar parte integrante de una raza que se esfuerza por obtener el reconocimiento de sus derechos. Elminado este parásito, el árbol de nuestras esperanzas florecería con más vigor, produciendo el fruto apetecido. ; Hasta cuándo !..... Democracia y demagogia Creemos habler dicho más de una vez: para que una democracia exista y prospere debe ir precedida de una demagogia, defgradual despertamiento de un pueblo a sus deberes y derechos, de su condicion por el alexecamiento metódico sobre el valor de la personalidad individual y colectiva. Este proceso de educación no puede limitarse a la escuela, sino que tiene su más amplio y eficaz campo de acción en la prensa y la propaganda de los partidos y organizaciones politico-sociales. Un país sin demagogos, sin formadores de conciencia pública estará expuesto a toda suerte de accidentes políticos. La democracia estará constantemente en peligro, porque sus fases son endebla o ficticia, no sustentadas en una larga y solida demaggrie. Como defender aquella cayo calor se deconoce, porque sus guardianes fueron los primos en felicurba? Cada vez que leemos que el peligro negro se aproxima, nuestro espiritu de determinación se forzca más y más. Feel as la propaganda másana de que somo objeto.

Algunos marineros, dice el profesor Bendandi, anuncian la temperatura con más acierto que los más experimentados científicos. El marinero siente por intento lo que certas condiciones atmosféricas presagian. Sabe-lo que es el viento, la lluvia, el sol, la tormenta, y sabe por experiencia que estas condiciones siguen a ciertas otras. Ahora bien, si el hombre de mar capaz de predecir que clase de dia sera ellesiguiente, nada de imposible hay en que ciertas fuerzas que trabajan en el seno de la tierra permitan deducir conclusiones acertadas acerca de lo que en el centro del planeta se elabora. Para anunciar, una ley/ dice, requierense multiples ejemplos. Si un caso falla, razón habra para ello, y es preciso determinar esa razón, sopena de que toda la ley se desmoron como castillo de naipes.

Estos barrían las defensas enemigas a fuerza de bombas y limpiaba el camino para la infanteria. Al arrojar bombas a los rifíenos por primera vez, los aviadores norteamericanos experimentaron un peligro inesperado, el de los remolinos que en aquellas regiones forman los vientos, a los cuales dicho aviadores no estaban avazados.

Dear Sir, Almost I grow to believe that my four thousand miles "remove" from the motherland lend me an advantage, when discussions in the press become heated. It is delightful to tektile the brain-cells of your readers, and then to see them shift away in all manner of directions. And, it is curious that the query, "Are the Jews a glorious race?" should now have swung round toward argument about the sanity of King David. One correspondent roundly declare that David, were he living today, would risk inscription as a danger, but he describes him as an ecstatic descendant. I pick up McCabe's little handbook on The Evolution of civilization, and I find this illustration: Hollow monarch described in these contemporary terms: "As the Philippines weakened, a not very scrupulous adventurer joined David for a successful result and founded the kingdom of Israel, about the year B. C. 1,000." "I can hear the saps of orthodox Christians. I can see their uplifted hands. "A not very scrupulous adventurer" that great prophet who chanted the glorious plea of praise to the skies. "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth His handwork"—that golden-engodged poet who sang of the green pictures and still waters of Spiritual Praise? "As 'adventurer?' "Not very scrupulous." Yet we do have the most resolutive glimpses of Daphne's ergent soul. "I may tell all my bones" he confesses over and over again, with details of his physical malleties that point to sin of the most reprohensible kind. Sometimes we are almost irreverently repelled. Yet soon stinging tears are brought to our eyes, a lump in our throat, and we are thrilling to the exquisite rhythm of words like these—"For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a door-keeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness"—or the elusive tenderness of a revelation like this: "The wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more." To read the Psalms in the Old Testament, version, is like taking a pocket torch, and flashing its vivid rays into corridors of memory that have lain undisturbed for tens of centuries. I question whether one per thousand of the sinners of the "psalms for the day" in our churches realize what they are singing. These are words to utter, and they utter them. It needs the quiet of one's own chamber, ample cure, and absolute concentration ... the text before one, to see David as he did. Flashing that torch of ours then into the remotest corners, we may see bloated spiders toot away in fright; repulsive beetles wave alarmed anfennace: while from behind the wainscot come the whimping crises of rats and mice. Yet yonder, soon a forgotten heap of jewels, left to moulder in the dust, but still flashing its undismayed challenge of reflected glory: "We hanged our harpe upon the willow," "If I forget them, O Jerusalem. Let my right hand forget her cunning," or "I am fearfully and wonderfully maize." What an exhilarating experience that search may be! If our hands should ever falter on the bench, and we would then swish of the light, it is not Davies's own secret-pen heat controls The Negro World OF Time, long ago. dred wastes to vainly pine. of night, bliss, of gloom s, viving in the gloom. could come, sphere; wisium in here. rose realms, luffled and lapped. and light into view, night, icy blue. of suspense, s uts, vision most intense. ain; and tomb, pain, bloom. of snow rol icy realms below. and night love, light, bitunial grove, in I go. als of long ago. our will, — he asks for no relief, no pray, no compassion. "Beloved me, I am!" he crys. "With all my sins I retain my faith in God, in the God who is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path." These Psalms are of incumbent literary value. They teach us, *St. David's own divine phrase*) to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. "See what a parable being is this David!" the great few eries across the three millenniums that divide us. "I have grown so want to perish upon my soul, so to celebrate my body, that I fear in body but my God. Behold me with all my life, with all my faults, with all my sinner subtleties of design. But behold me also with all my gifts. Am I not great? Behold my delight and joy and wonder, my capture of peace, my gratitude of acceptance. Return with me that God can longevity even so debaud a witch as I am. Lament with me that God may punish and reject even to divine a singer as I am. Then at the end, when all is over, when the tumult dies and the captain, and the kings depart realize it I do how rich and glorious is this life, and how very beautiful in death. For He given His beholded sleep. And in His eyes a thousand years are but as yesterday when it is passed!" A great man, David. With all his crimes we could ill spare him from the gallery of Humanity. That 'not very / suspicious, adventurer.' of Mr. McCabe's central history of Judaism was, to my mind at least, as typed, and as modern a Hebrew as we could ever care to find. He optimizes his race—that race which exist, even now that Babylonians and Assyrians, Cretans and Lydian, and Phrygians, Hittites and Medes are no more, Egypt and Greece, Persia and Arabia have alone survived of the nations that tended so fiercely around the tent of Hebrew David, and they have survived only as relatively feeble peoples. But the Jews are great, rather ever. They will be of tremendous help to humanity in the near future. When the nations agree at last upon a policy of peace and goodwill to all men. Yours faithfully.

Explorers sent out by the Ohio Historical and Archaeological Society to open the great central mound of the Seip group, near Bainbridge, O.. today revealed another page in the amazing history of the ancient race which populated the interior of the North American Continent. They discovered that, like the Egyptians, the American Mound Builders sometimes buried their principally dead in heavy timbered mausoleums under canopies of exquisitely Tashlonted cloth, that when these tombs were built the tribesmen carried earth in baskets and helped if on the sepulchres until they had reared mounds 30 feet above the level of the surrounding country. Discoveries made today were centered around the disentombing of four skeletons believed to be the remains of members of a royal family. In the sepulchre was found the first bit of cloth ever seen in a north American mound. AN APPRECIATION OF HODGE KIRNON To the Editor of the Negro World: Dear Sir..To the old readers of the Negro World, there must have come the old thrill of enjoyment at seeing, in your last week's issue, the review of Mr. Kirionn's book, Mr. Kirionn's own contributions to the Negro World in the past have always brought us both information and light. The very able and inspiring review of his booklet "Montseerat and Montseerratians," in your last issue has prompted me to remark that made from a small number of Montseerratians who do not seem to enter into the spirit and proper understanding of the copy well written and spissibly interpreted work, the muse of his fellow landers think highly of it. They agree with the reviewer that it is a tribute to Montseerat as well as to the author. Being one of those who believe the publication enthusiastically, I would like to submit the opinion of Mr. John Hall Wheocke, of the Library Department of Charles Sørthern Sons, to whom I submitted a copy of the book for an estimate. Below is Mr. Wheocke's reply. Library Dept. Charles Scribners' Sons. Fifth Ave. at 45th St. New York, Aug. 21, 1825. My dear Mr. Chamburg: I have read with very great pleasure and interest Mr. Hodge Kirnona's Monterey and Montanaffans' This work presents a study that is scientifically in spirit and one feels throughout the presence of a keen, active, and impartial mind. The value of such a work lies, of course, in the subject matter which is here presented in such a way as to hold the interest of the reader and at the same time arouse his enthusiasm. It seem so that the matter is well expressed, that is to say, tersely and without any rhetorical expressions. There are perhaps here and there phrases or adjectives which I personally would desire. The thing which he impressed me in the little book is the open mindedness and forward looking attitude of the author, and I sectional moderation and reasonable in his point of view which add more to his opinions than the most vehement invective could. Yours very truly. (Signed) JOHN HALL WHEELOCK. The letter speaks for itself. No further at it is necessary.

The un-American antics of Philip Williams, the naval captain who served for a while as "autocrat of the Virgin Islands," have resulted in his transfer from a soft benth in the islands to the regular routine of naval drudgery. That he has at last been "canned" is in itself a clause for publication to all decent Americans, black and white in the islands, but the Navy Department is still unregenerate in its attitude towards the civil rights and liberties of the Virgin Island people. In order that its Southern attitude may be clearly understood it has elected as Williams' successor Martin E. Tranch. Commandant of the Charleston (S. C.) Navy Yard, an individual who presages his advent by broadening his antifaction to "carry on the policies of my predecessor." Those policies included not only the suppression of nineteen-twentieths of the votes of the people, but the automatic refusal to allow the legislature, elected by the remaining twentieths, to perform the duty for which it was elected. They also included the addition to this legislature, by the official act of the governor, of white persons who were not even American citizens, but owed political allegiance to two different European powers. These aliens were treasonably but in control of a portion of the governing powers of the United States—and this by an officer in the United States Navy. The plan failed of fruition only because it was blocked by the absolute refusal of the people's party in the legislature, whose Americanism seemed greater than that of the man who should have been its highest official exponent. These are some of the policies of my predecessor" which Governor Trench pledges himself to carry on even in advance of any knowledge of the tangle situation in the islands. We wonder how the Navy Department will stomach Governor Trench's declaration of intention to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor in the matters which we have mentioned above. It looks as if more mischief is in store. Surely there must be some Northern white men available in the Navy Department. Why this insistence on Southern whites for the governorship of the islands? While the war was on and Woodrow Wilson, a Southerner, was at the helm of the nation's affairs. It was at least understandable that the South should get the lion's share of training camps and government business. It was natural that section should have a disproportionate number of officers, in the Army and Navy. But we are not at war now, and this uninterrupted succession of Southern Caissars for these little islands can have but one meaning. These Southern men are intended and expected to carry, on "The Southern point of view" into the islands and maintain it there by the traditional Southern methods. When it is remembered that it is the maintenance of this "Southern point of view" and the practice of these Route 60 methods which have been the main causes of the discontent now prevailing in the islands, it seems misnoble, to say the least, to persist in promoting more discontent by the continuance of the same methods. It is obvious that the officials of the Navy Department do not wish the islanders any good. And all this oply serves to give point to their case against the continuation of Naval Rule and to their demands for the installation of a Civil form of government in which the democratic laws of the United States may have a chance to function and are fruit. The present chaos in the islands is a standing disgrace to our country and a blot on the escutcheon of Congress which was responsible in the first instance, for its establishment. In the meanwhile Virgin Islanders will air their greetings and salute public opinion in the United States until Congress is spurred into taking such action as will re-establish the good reputation of the United States in the Caribbean Sea. Upon this, at any rate they are all agreed. Virgin Islanders on the mainland, who, as many in number as those in the islands, are putting their shoulders to the wheel as never before. Their constructive work of various sorts for the alleviation of distress in the islands has been chronicled many times in these columns and hardly needs and further elaboration. And now they have decided to expand and deepen their propaganda of protest in conjunction with that of their countrymen at home. Preparations were made under the auspices of the Virgin Islands Congressional Council to have two members of the Colonial Council, Mr. Jean B. Hoeffers of St. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1925 Thomas, and Mr. Halver V. Berg of St. Croix, present the facts of the situation in the Virgin Islands to an American and Virgin Islands audience at a great mass meeting held at the Renaissance Casino, on the afternoon of August 30, 1925. For the first time, the case of the Virgin Islanders at home was adequately presented here by themselves. It was the opening gun in the new campaign to arouse the conscience of the American people in the autocracy and tyranny which exist under our flag and constitution and in the name of our common country. With them we pledge our undying loyalty to the principle that no American community, whether white or black, shall be governed except by their own cooperative consent. This Americanism as we understand it and nothing less than that will satisfy us. Marcus Garvey and His Dream of Empire Not to Be Scoffed At From the Gold Coast Times Mr. Marcus Garvey from his "prison cell" as he himself puts it, continues to send cheering messages to his followers, and his influence among them seems to be as great as ever: small wonder then that they are hard at work to effect his release. We may not agree with his methods nor with what he says; but we do not belong to 'the class of Africans' who praise as, the white man praises or condemn as he does. Wherefore we have not found in Marcus Garvey so Presence of Negro in Cafe Leads to Shooting Alfred B. Wilson, a waiter, is in city all today, formally, charged with assault to commit murder. Wilson is alleged to have shot and wounded Dr. T. E. Taggart in a cafe at 629 South Ohio street, following a quarrel over the presence of a Negro Servants at the doctor's table. According to reports, Taggart, his daughter,irma, and her Negro maid entered the cafe and sat down to a table. Wilson refused to wait on the maid, demanding that she leave. Words ensued. Wilson left the room; but returned a moment later and shot twice at Taggart. One bullet took effect in Deputy District Attorney Foe has issued a formal complaint against Wilson. How Races May Best Attain A Sense of Self-Dignity Races must learn to cultivate respect for self and neighbors if racial friction is to be avoided. Rabbi Louis L. Newman declared recently at services of Temple Emmanu-El at the First Unitarian Church. Rabbi Newman was discussing Mrs. Sarah G. Millin's book, "God's Stepchildren," and Ericome O'Erren's play, "All Gods' Chillips Got Wings." "Individual instances of crossing between races may occur, but too often tragedy and heartache result," said Rabbi Newman. "Each race should obtain so high a degree of excellence through itself that it should not seek affiliation with other races in order to attain a sense of self-identity." Prosperity Closes Poorhouses WASHINGTON. The county porch-house may soon be a thing of the past. A survey made by the U. S. Department of Labor discloses that there are still more than 2,200 porch-houses in the United States, but that in some of them only one inmate is being provided for. Marcug Garvey and His Dream of Empire Not to Be Scoffed At Mr. Marcus Garvey from his "prison cell," as he himself puts it, continues to send cheering messages to his followers, and his influence among them seems to be as great as ever; small wonder then that they are hard at work to effect his release. We may not agree with his methods nor with what he says; but we do not belong to the class of Africans who praise as the white man praises or condemns as he does. Wherefore we have not found in Marcus Garvey so much of sing and blot as imputed to him by white men. After all, what is the man's ideal? No stands for the emancipation of his race from alien thraldom which is, but the task that leaders have set themselves since the days of Moses, and if, there are Africans living who do not cherish the hope that in course of time there may arise in Africa great and powerful States occupying nations similar to those now held by the European States, then such people are not a valuable asset to the race since they lack the only ideal that matters and are content to continue in their self-destiny to the end of time. We must set this ideal before us, to be hequequated from generation to generation, until it is realized in the fulness of time, the ideal that in the course of the centuries Africans will also become absolutely independent and masters in their own household, and so develop ourselves towards that state. We have history to encourage us in adopting this high ideal, for history does not show that any one race, or one group of races, has ever succeeded in keeping another race under subjection for ever. If Marcus Garvey therefore, talks of founding a native empire in Africa, it is not an empty dream although it may be characterized as trying to build Rome in a day. Africans have got to build their Rome but not in a day, and our, work now should consist in making our estimates, preparing our plans and gathering up materials for posterity. When the Babylonian and Egyptian Empires, among others, flourished and their monarchs, were building hanging gardens, granids and sphinxes, it could not have occurred to the people living in those remote ages, nor would they have believed had they learnt that in these latter days there would arise in Europe the existing great empires, kingdoms and republics. It is a dead certainty that Europe was unknown in the day of the ancient Egyptians and other great nations of the east, and it is doubtful whether that Continent was then inhabited. We know from the writings of Julius Caesar and others that as late as the first century before Christ, Europe was inhabited by races more sunk in barbarianism than any that can be found in Africa today. And if Europe has emerged from the depths of barbarianism to its present standard of civilization no thinking. African, would follow the white man to scout at Garvey's dream as to the future of Africa. FUTURE HAS MUCH IN STORE FOR DARK RACE (Continued from page 2) Are you losing WEIGHT?

Order the Arabs Stop Smoking To Combat Zionism JERU'SALEM, Sept. 9 (A' P)—The saving of Palestine by ceasing the habit of smoking is the latest idea of some of the Arab leaders. They have decided to conform with the commandment of the Koran which prohibits Moslems from smoking. Five Arab notables have decided to quit, smoking and establish a fund, for a bank "to save Palestine from the Zoologist renascence." The bank is to be known as the "Smoke Bank." The Arab newspaper El Carmel warmly supports the idea and urges Agnès to give up the weed and turn over the money thus saved to the "Smoke Bank."

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1925 Spanish Section Una intervención intolerable un atentado disfrasado de filantropia SECCIÓN EN ESPAÑOL por La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Baza Negra. 54-56 Oeste, Calle 135, Ciudad de Nueva York, N. Y. PROF. M. A. FIGUEROA, Editor Del Listin Diario, Santo Donlingo Hemos visto y nos hemos quedado atonitos, una circular subscripta por el Receptor General de Aduanas, senor V. E. Pulliam, de fecha 22 del mes en curso, por la cual comunica a los Delegados Receptores (Interventores de Aduana) que, en virtud de reglamento aprobado por el Negociado de Asuntos Insulares, (Departamento de la Guerra, Estados Unidos). los empleados que hubien cumplido diez años en el servicio de la recaudación aduanera el 31 de diciembre próximo, recibirían una bonificación igual al cinco por ciento del montante de los sueldos durante los últimos doce meses y que esa bonificación será hecha cada año, incluyendo sucesivamente a los que fueren cumpliendo los diez años en el servicio y siempre que existieren fondos no gastados de ese cinco por ciento. La circular termina anunciando el envio de listas con el fin de que sean señaladas omisiones u otros errores en que se pudie incurrir. Preparando la raza para mayores realizaciones—Enemigos del movimiento no podrán soportar la presión de su influencia—Nada extinguirá la flama ardiente de libertad que comporta el corazón de nuestro elemento—Continuemos en la marcha hacia el enaltecimiento—En no lejano dia entonaremos el hosanna: Africanos, nunca jamás series esclavos Las buenas nuevas que hasta nosotros llegan de todas partes, con motivo de la influencia satisfactoria que nuestro movimiento ejerce, principalmente en el continente africano, nos alientan en gran manera hacia la continuación de nuestra lucha por la adquisición del sagrado derecho de una raza. Dicha influencia ha dejado sentir su efecto no solamente en el hemisferio occidental sino también en Africa, y nada sería más placentero para las cancillerias europeas, que la noticia de la disolución de esta prepotente institución nuestra. Atónitos nos hemos quedado frente a esa insolita determinación que ha debido ser iniciada por el señor Pulliam y convertida en precepto por quien no tiene calidad ninguna, para determinar de fondos pertenecientes al Estado, sobre los cuales no haya recaido aplicación. Attribución exclusivisima del Congreso Nacional. Nuestra determinación nos lleva al pleno convencimiento, de que tal satisfacción no ha, de ser experimentada por dichos poderes. Aprisiónnense nuestros directores, redúzcanse a cenizas todos nuestros Liberty Halls, distribuyanse millones de monedas entre los iscariotes de la raza y muy poco crédito será obtenido de tal actitud destructiva, pues con más ardor ha de brillar la flama de emancipación arraigada en el alma del negro progresista, después de siete años de constante lucha con la borasca en el inmenso mar de las injusticias humanas. No nos duleleo no nos doleria que los empleados, de la Receptoria General de Aduanas, especialmente los dominicanos, fueran + bonificados; pero si nos repugna que así, por propia decision, quien no tiene para ello facultades, determining por su sola delibération sobre los fondos del Estado, libres de aplicación y mucho más sin la previa aquiescencia del tinico dueño de los fondos en exceso, el Estado mismo, esto es, haciendo la decision unilateral. Estamos altamente satisfechos con el resultado de nuestra labor obtenido hasta el presente, pero ello no indica que hemos de abandonar los remos descansando en nuestra barca de progreso, dejándola a merced de los vientos contrarios. Nuestra ardua labor se halla aun en embrión. No solamente tenemos que continuar nuestro esfuerzo hacia la realización de nuestro programa, sino que también debemos estar sentinela alerta a cada instante, para prevenir la ejecución del maquiavelismo, enemigo e impedir que este adelante un sólo paso en nuestro terreno de adelanto, tan laboriosa y gallardamente conquistado. Como? Bonificaciones para los empleados de la Receptoria del excedente del ciento por ciento cuando los depósitos de la Altaiana no garantizan la buena aplicación de su propio destino; por falta de capacidad y por el deterioro que en ellos ha obrado el tiempo, así como por la mala estructura de los de reciente confusión? Al insolvente po regla general al salir de su casa, le preocupa muy poco el hechar el cerrojo a la puerta; pero el rico no solamente se serciora de que todo esté seguro, sino que adquiere los servicios de las agencias protectoras, para que estas velen por sus intereses. La máximo es clara y terminante: Todo aquel que algo tiene y estima, toma toda medida de precaución. En la misma situación se halla la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza\Negra; ella tiene una reputación que protejer y un tesor que preservar, los cuales nos estimulan constituyéndonos en sus guardianes inespugnables, dispuestos a defenderlos a toda costa, con todo el valor y con todo el poder el Gran Creador nos haya conferido. Imposible! Eso sería un nuevo alentado goñtra el Tesoro, un regalo a los empleados, especialmente a los estranjeros, de los cuales muchos no sohan en su país con las pingues cimongias que aquí frustran. Por que con el remanente del año pasado $(29.565.18) y el que acumulara este año, no se emprenden la reificación o las grandes reparaciones que demandan los intereses que circulan por los depositos de la Aduana, los cuales más de una vez han sufrido gerujicios durante la actual encuesta de lluvias? Los resultados obtenidos por los grandes esfuerzos de esta institución durante el corto periodo de su existencia, empiezan a demostrar al mundo el poder y la potencia del negro. Muchos conceptuarán sus propósitos como un sueno imposible de llevar a la realización, pero no ha de tardar un año más en que haya de celebrarse una importante conferencia en la cual ha de verse representado todo pueblo civilizado, y cuyo tópico principal ha de ser el negro y su programa de emancipación. Con el objeto de obfener de tales situaciones el mejor resultado posible, debemos estar dotados de la debida preparación tanto en lo intellectual como en lo material. Haga el señor Pulliam obra reconstrucional material en las aduarias y verá como el pais apreciar y estimara su gestión; pero esa que senalá la circular que impugnamos y que impugnaremos —atentado con disfraz de filantropia— es inadmisible, porque el remanente del cinco por ciento de las rentas, destinado a gastos de recaudación, son fondos del Estado, no aplicados a ningún fin, por la institución o por el funcionario investido para ello de calidad, si hujere alguno con tal investidura. Si el resto de la humanidad cree que cuatrocientos millones de seres han de permitir que se les aveje, que se les asesine, que se les linche por illo tempore, estan muy equivocados. Si tales hechos inhumanos han de ser consumados por los tal llamados pueblos civilizados en esta era de luz y de progreso, esta organización esta determinada a que su ejecución no sea efectuada individualmente, y conqué poder se podra exterminar a centenares de millones en un sólo intento? Por ello nuestro lema de unir en un sólo pensamiento, de unir en un sólo haz propentete todo el elemento de nuestro pueblo. En buena hora que el Negociado de Asuntos Insulares, por su propia iniciativa o por la del Receptor General, inspeccione o administre dentro de los limites de la Convención de 1907; pero de ahí a que tomé medidas o determinaciones de disposición fuera de esos limites, es lo inadmissible: una intervención intolerable, que el poder ejecutivo no observará, sino que vetará. definitivamente, pensamos. Es lamentable que conceptuandosenos como la nota inferior en la escala de los pueblos, existan aun individuos que se precian de intellectuales, quienes ocultando el remordimiento de su conciencia por sus actuaciones; sombrero en mano rinden su honor al maquiavelismo para que este ejerza su presión sobre la causa justificada de su propia raza. Si esos de por si denominados protectores de las masas, sintieran por un instante en su fuero interno la influencia del bien, habrian de convertirse en verdaderos hombres, con orgullo de formar parte integrante de una raza que se esfuerza por obtener el reconocimiento de sus derechos. Eliminado este parásito, el árbol de nuestras esperanzas florecería con más vigor, produciendo el fruto apetecido. ¡Hasta cuándo!... Democracia y demagogia Creemos haberlo dicho más de una vez: para que una democracia exista y prospere debe ir precedida de una demagogia, del gradual despertamiento de un pueblo a sus deberes y derechos, de su condicion por el alecaciónamiento metódico sobre el valor de la personalidad individual y colectiva. Este proceso de educación no puede limitarse a la escuela, sino que tiene su más amplio y eficas campo de acción en la prensa y la propaganda de los partidos y organizaciones politico-sociales. Un país sin demagogos, sin formadores de conciencia pública estará expuesto a toda suerte de accidentes político. La democracia estará constuntemente en peligro, porque sus fases son endebles o ficticas, no sustentadas en una larga y oblida demagogia. Como defender aquellos cuyo calor es descomose, porque sus guardias fueron los primeros en falecirlo? Cada vez que jeemos que el peligro negro se aproxima, nuestro capítulo de determinación se fortifica más y más. Es el la propaganda malaña de que somos objeto. Apesar de lo severo de la presión, apesar de los difícil de la situación, un rayo de htz ha de iluminar el nuevo día en que espacios el hosanna: Africenca, nunca jamás seréis edifice. Hemos afinanzado miestra posición en el terreno inmóvel en la contienda, por habernos compañero de viaje en un unido esta la fuerza. Con mayor determinación impedir de parte de sus miembros, esta organización ha continuar por el sábado sumido del progreso, hasta que se en un labor quincunbival discusse enmuerter la movilidad de la rosa. Bendandi, el hombre que ha venido prediciendo fenomenos sismicos con asombrosa precisión, ha revelado que en sus métodos aplica parte del sistema con que los marineros hacen sus predicciones atmosféricas. Algunos, marineros, dice el profesor Bendandi, anuncian la temperatura con más-acierto que los más experimentados. científicos... El marinero siente por intento lo que certas condiciones atmosféricas presagian. Sabe lo que es el viento, la lluvia, el sol, la formenta, sabe por experiencia que estas condiciones siguen a ciertas otras. Ahora bien, si el hombre de mar es capaz de predecir que clase de dia sera el siguiente, nada de imposible hay en que ciertas fuerzas que trabajan en el seno de la tierra permitan deducir conclusiones acertadas acerca de lo que en el centro del planeta se elabora. Fara anunciar una ley, dice, requierese multiples ejemplos. Si un caso falla, razón habra para ello, y es preciso detefinar esa razón, so pena de que toda la ley se desmorona como castillo de naipes. Por esta razon Bendandi no esta todavía dispuesto a proclamar la ley que, en su opinión, opera en los trastornos de laierra. Vieja Táctica aun en boga Aunque grande y evidentemente mejora el sistema de efectuarse las elecciones en la America Latina, la amulación de la reciente elección a la presidencia de la república de Bolivia por orden del presidente encargado, es un retroceso a la tactica de autanó. El presidente electo Villanueva es liberal y la administración actual es reacionaria, lo cual representa el motivo. Informes confirman que el presidente esta respaldado por seis solidados que se acaniparon en La Paz, para la celebración del centenario de-la independencia de Bolivia. No ha sido expuesta ain la razon para la anulación de las elecciones en referencia. El hombre a caballo; con botas de campaña y espuelas, pistola y espada, es ain-dueno y señor en algunos puntos de esas regiones. Ataque de la vanguardia aerea El pequeño número de aviadores norteamericanos que combaten por Francia en Africa, estuvieron a la vanguardia en la ataque al empezar la reciente ofensiva contra el caudillo Abd-el-Krim y sus rifíenos. Habiendo tenido ya su experiencia en las caldeadas corrientes atmosféricas de las linas francas, los aeronautas de la escaubilla norteamericana desempenaran el mismo papel que desempenaron los artilleros en la utitula guerra.

Al arrojar bombas a los rifíenos por primera vez, los aviadores norteamericanos experimentaron un peligro inesperado, el de los remolinos en aquellas regiones forman los vientos, a los cuales dicho aviadores no estaban avezados.

THE JEW The Editor, The Negro World. Dear Sir, Almost I grow to believe that my four thousand miles "remove" from the motherland lend me an advantage, when discussions in the press become heated. It is delightful to tektile the brain-cells of your readers, and then to see them start away in all manner of directions. And it is curious that the query, "Are the Jews a Gloomy Race?" should now have swing round to an argument about the Sanity of King David. One correspondent roundly declare that David, were he living today, would risk an incarceration as a changer, our bumtic. He describes him as an antagonist. I pick up Metabe's little handbook of the Evolution of civilization, and I find the illustrations Hegel monarch described in these contemporary terms. "As the Philistines weakened, a not very scrupulous adventurer named David led a successful revolt and founded the kingdom of Israel, after the year B. C. 1,000." I can hear the gaps of orthodox Christians. I can see their uplifted hands. "A not very scrupulous adventurer"—that great prophet who chanted the glorious paean of praise to the skies: The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth His handwork"—that golden-tongued post who sang of the green pictures and still waters of Spiritual Peace. An "adventurer?" "Not very scrupulous?" Yet we do have the most revolting glimpses of David's sermant soul. "I may tell all my bones," he confesses over and over again, with details of his physical malades that point to sin of the most reproachible kind. Sometimes we are almost irretrievably repelled. Yet soon stinging tears are brought to our eyes, a lump in our throat, and we are thrilling to the exquisite rhythm of words like these—"For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a door-keeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness"—or the elusive tenderness of a revelation like this—"The wind paves over it, and it is gone," and the place thereof shall know it no more." To read the Psalms in the Old Testament version, is like taking a pocket-torch, and flashing its vivid rays into corridors of memory that have lain undisturbed for tens of centuries. I question whether one per thousand of the singeres of the "psalms for the day" in our churches realize what they are singing. These are words to utter, and they utter them. If needs the quiet of someone's own chamber, ample leisure, and absolute concentration on the text before one, to see David an he is. Flashing that torch of ours then into the remotest corners, we may see bloated spiders totter away in fright; repulsive beetles wave alarmed anterine; while from behind the wain-pot come the whimming cries of rats and mice. Yet yonder, seen a forgotten heap of jewels, left to mould in the dust, but still flashing its undimayed challenge of "reflected glory: "We hanged our harpe upon the willow. "If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her countin', or "I am fearfully and wonderfully made." What an orthilateral experience that search may be! If our hands should ever falter on the tooth, and we would fainn, swish all the light, it is not David's own spirit-palm best estimate. The Noge World.

"Enhold me as I pray" he says. "With all my prayers I renew my faith in God, in the God who is a baphe unto my feet and a light unto my path." These Psalms are of inexplicable literary value. "They teach us on David's own divine phrase to number our days that we may apply our heart unto wisdom. "See what a variable being is this David" the great Jew once accreth the three millenniums that divide us. "I have grown so want to meditate upon my soul, so to educate, to my body, that I fear body-body my God. Behold me with all my car with all my fruits, with all my sinners subtleties of design. But behold me also with all my gifts." Am I not great? Behold my delight and by God wonder, my rapture of praise, my attitude of acceptance. Receive with me that God can forgive even so deceive a wretch as I am. Lament with me that God may punish and report even so divine a singer as I am. Then, at the end, when all is over, when the tumult dies and the captains, and the kings depart realize as I do how rich and glorious is this life—and how very beautiful in death. For He growth His beloved sleep. And in His eyes, a thousand years age, but as yesterday when it is passed! A great man David. With all his crimes, we could all spare him from the gallery of Humanity. That not very scrupulous adventurer, of Mr McCabe's central history of Judaism was, to my mind at least, of type, and as modern a Hebrew as we could ever care to find. He optimizes his race that rage which exists even now that Babylonians and Assyrians, Cretans and Lydians and Phrygians, Hittites and Medes are no more. Egypt and Greece, Persia and Arabia have alone survived of the nations that contended so fiercely around the tent of Hebrew David, and they have survived only as relatively feeble people. But the Jews are greater than ever. They will be of tremendous help to humanity in the near future, when the nations agree at last upon a policy of peace and goodwill to all men. Yours faithfully. J.

Explorers sent out by the Ohio Historical and Archaeological Society to open the great central mound of the Stip group, near Bambridge, O., today revealed another page in the amazing history of the ancient race which populated the interior of the North American Continent. They discovered that, like the Egyptians, the American Mound Builders sometimes buried their princely dead in heavy timbered mausoleums under canopies of exquisitely fashioned cloth, that, that when these tombs were built the tribesmen carried earth in baskets and helped it on the sepulchres until they had reared mounds 30 feet above the level of the surrounding country. Discoveries made today were centered around the disentombing of four skeletons believed to be the remains of members of a royal family. In the sepulchre was found the first bit of cloth ever seen in a north American AN APPRECIATION OF HODGE KIRNON To the Editor of the Negro World; Dear Sir...To the old readers of the Negro World," there must have come the old thrill of enjoyment at seeing, in your last week's issue, the review of Mr. Kiennons' book," M. Kiennons own contributions to the Negro World in the past have always brought us both information and light. The very sight and inspiring review of his book "Montserial and Montserrians," in your last issue has prompted me to remark that made from a small number of Montserrians who do not seem to enter into the spirit and proper understanding of his very well written and splendidly interrupted work, the faces of these fellow islanders think highly of it. They agree with the reviewer that it is a tribute to Montserr as well as to the author. Being one of those who gave the publication enthusiastically, I would like to submit the opinion of Mr. John Hall Whelock, of the Liberty Department of Charles Searhner's Sons, to whom I submitted a copy of the book for an estimate. Below is Mr. Whelock's reply: Library Dept. * Charles Serfershers* Sons, Fifth Ave. at 48th St. New York, Aug. 21, 1923. Mr. McKinley, Mr. Chappies. I have read with very great pleasure and interest Mr. Hodge Kirnson's Montessori and Modernism. This work presents a study that is scientific in spirit and one feels throughout the presence of a keen, active, and impartial mind. "The value of such a work lies, of course, in the subject matter which is here presented in such a way as to hold the interest of the reader and at the same time around his enthusiasm. It seems to me that the matter is well expressed, that is to say tersely and without, and the technical expressions. There are perhaps here and there phrases or adjectives which I, personally, would desire attained. The thing which has impressed me in this little book is the open-mindedness and forward looking attitude of the author, and a certain moderation and redemption in his point of view which add more force to his opinions than the most vehement invective could. Stanford JOHN HALL, WHEELLOCK. The letter speaks for itself. No further comment is necessary. I hope that I speak for the majority of Mont-servations in adding my quota of appreciation for Mr. Kirpun and the contribution he has made to the history and sociology of the West Indies.

THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Duty of All to Make Organization Attractive To the Editor of The Negro World: Members of the U. N. I. A. say that they love and respect the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and the principles for which the Red, Black and Green stand. If this be so, they must so conduct themselves that others will learn to love the organization and wish to become a part of it. In no other way can people be drawn to the organization. This sounds like a restatement of a fact that is familiar to the members of our organization. Many times we know a thing, but do not think about it or put it into action. Members of the U. N. I. A. cannot emphasize too much this phase of the organization work. To make your organization attractive to the non-member is one of your greatest duties. Departure of Garvey Will Not Mar the Work To the Editor of the Negro World: The enemies of Marcus Garvey and the U. N. L. A. are gloating over statements that Mr. Garvey will be deported to Jamaica after he shall have served three and a half years, in Atlanta penitentiary. These enemies seem to think that if Garvey is deported it will mean the downfall of the cause which he so valiantly enpoises, but they are counting without their host. This stalwart, exponent of Negro liberty and freedom, who is now suffering behind the gray walls of a prison cell, will come out more victorious and more prepared than when he entered; for there are no earthly agencies that can permanently cripple this grand and noble cause. They have pictured him as serving in a kitchen. Any man who is willing to suffer such humiliation for a people and a cause will ultimately disapoint his enemies, and that is exactly what will happen. The right leaders will be found to carry on the work which this great man has inaugurated. If Garvey he taken from us in any manner.

Although Mr. Garvey is behind the hars of a Georgia prison, his light is brighter than ever, and the new Negro is rallying 'to the cause as never before. Indeed, it is gratifying to witness, the enthusiasm displayed daily by men and women of the race. We are coming together in no uncertain manner and as our great leader has said, we intend 'to grow our jobs and mingle in the city' for a free and redeemed Africa. I extend my sympathy to the Hon.

It is one of the unchangeable laws of life that what we think we eventually become. If we constantly see nothing but failure, how can we do anything but fall?

Marcus Garvey, has been a most vexing puzzle to his innumerable critics. And it is this same attitude demonstrated by the members of the Universal Negro Improvement, Association that contounds and holds the enemy at bay. 'One of the greatest assets to Marcus Garvey's success is his ability to encourage and inspire Negroes, universally. His messages and writings are applicable to the members of his race, regardless of their location or present conditions. Nothing petty, nothing small, nothing selfish or envious has emanated from his mind. The integrity of his leadership is beyond successful criticism. It is this quality that must be acquired by present-day leaders, if they desire prestige and favorable results. It is also a human impossibility to broaden, malign or abuse a people; and at the same time entail their approval and support. In all his writings, Marcus Garvey never fails to encourage the faithful, and deserving. There are few born leaders. For example, take the Negro's Declaration of Independence, African Fundamentalism, written by that masterful pen of Marcus Garvey; an annihilator of discouragement and racial despondency. No language contains a vocabulary sufficient to estimate or appraise the worth and value of our greatest Negro leader—but we can all hope, and fervently exclaim: "Long live President-General Marcus Garvey," and "God Bless Our Motherland, Africa." Our Leader's Worth Should Be Recognized Now To the Editor of The Negro World: Races, nations, men and women, self-democrate appreciate the kindness, sacrifice, the unselfish service of those who contribute to the progress of a group until the contributor has passed on. This attitude is common to all races and nationalities. The Honorable Marcus, Garvey has been confronted with this merciless, skeptical and ungrateful attitude as have been most of his predecessors who have attempted the thankless task of directing the upward progress of a race or nation.

We are hoping that he will be one of the fortunate few who will receive this recognition while he is able to enjoy and be encouraged by it to do his best work. Let us honor him while he lives.

GREEN Methods of Germans in Belgium Now Being Employed by French in Morocco (Editorial in the New York World) War at its Highest With nearly 400,000 French and Spanish Troops converging in a grand offensive upon 60,000 Riff tribesmen, the Moroccan fighting has entered upon a desperate phase. Abd-al-Krim has said that his followers will burn their villages and fight to the last boy if necessary. French dispatches report an overwhelming concentration of artillery and airplanes. An official communique says that the air service "is being allowed no rest"; two towns have just been heavily bombed and a ton of explosives dropped on a third. A Paris dispatch adds that in the last few days 8,000 bombs have been dropped on Riff strongholds. What this warfare means is made plain by 'despatches to the London Daily Express which have aroused considerable British commitment. The friendly correspondent with the French army speaks of entering, bombed Riff villages where "smoking ruins are all that is left." Women and children had dwelt in these villages. He speaks of the natives elsewhere coming out with white flags. The invariable French orders were that if all arms, ammunition, flocks and herds were not surrendered in a half-hour "I will burn the village to the ground and kill ten leading men." The correspondent describes the colored French troops as loaded down with booty, to the disgust of the native officers but the great amusement of the French commander. There are uncomfortable parallels here with German tactics in zelum. The quicker this bloody and turtle war can be ended the better. The France-Spanish authorities can point to a creditable peace offer. Premier Painleve has just restated their terms sent to the Ruffs—administrative, economic and political autonomy under the reserve of the Sovereignty of the Sultan and subject to the delegation of the Khalifa. It is the Sultan's sovereignty at which Abd-al-Krim sticks. But there should be a formula by which the struggle can be ended short of extermination. Permits to Enter Palestine JERUSALEM, Sept. 2. (A.
