The Negro World

THE IDEALS OF TWO RACES In a message addressed to his followers and friends, the Hon. Marcus Garvey points out that in so far as the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America, of which Mr. John Powell is the head, are working for the preservation and purity of race, they have his hearty co-operation and moral support. Feeling that the Anglo-Saxon Chibs and the U. N. I. A meet on common ground as far as this ideal is concerned, he advises that the two organizations work together to their mutual benefit. The great leader further feels that Mr. Powell and his group represent the clean-cut and honest section of the white race—those who have honesty and lack hypocrisy in their dealings with the Negro. Emphasizing that the U. N. I. A. does not ask more than it is prepared to concede, he repeats that the Negro need offer no apology for wanting a free and independent nation of his own, with the opportunity to make his distinctive contribution to civilization. And, he avers, those who are against the purification of the races and autonomy, with the unbridled freedom of self-development and self-expression, are enemies of both races, rebels against morality, nature and God. The message follows: Fellow Members and Friends of the Universal Negro Improvement Association: As you are aware, our Association stands for the highest and best in human effort. We desire for ourselves a fixed and permanent place in the affairs of the world-fixed and permanent from the viewpoint of autonomous recognition. Our longing cry has been for a "Free and Redeemed Africa"a home where our scattered race might assemble itself in the exclusive promotion and development of those things that are dear and precious to the human heart and, representative of the loftiest in progressive ideals. In our desire to achieve greatness as a race we are liberal enough to extend to others a similar right. We are not selfish in desiring all to the exclusion of others. We believe in the doctrine of "Live and let live." To others, not of our race, we extend the heartiest of best wishes, and in so doing we feel that there are others who also wish us well. In the great American confusion of races it is hard to discern our friends, but as a people we have not been entirely friendless. When I speak of friendship I mean that which is sturdy, honorable and sincere. Such a friendship I desire to apprise you of in the introduction of Mr. John Powell, of the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America. Mr. Powell represents a body of men and women for whom I maintain the greatest respect because of their honesty and lack of hypocrisy. They represent the clean-cut and honest section of the white race that uncompromisingly stands for the purity of their race, even as we unhesitatingly and determinedly agitate and fight for the purity of the Negro race. All races should be pure in morals and in outlook, and for that we, as Negroes, admire the leaders and members of the Anglo-Saxon Clubs. They are honest and honorable in their desire to purify and preserve the white race even as we are determined to purify and standardize our race. Mr. Powell and his organization sympathize with us even as we sympathize with them. I feel and believe that we, the two organizations, should work together for the purpose of bringing about the ideal sought - the purification of the races, their autonomous separation and the unbridled freedom of self-development and self-expression. Those who are against this are enemies of both races and rebels against morality, nature and God; for, to the contrary, no good or ethical purpose can be served, but a continuation of world confusion, immorality and sin. I unhesitatingly endorse the race purity idea of Mr. Powell and his organization, and I have pledged my moral support to their program in that direction, expecting of the honorable and honest of his race the same regard and support for ours. We do not ask more than we will give. We want a free and independent nation of our own, with the right to make our distinctive contribution to civilization, and for this we offer no apology. I am asking you, my friends and co-workers, to hear Mr. Powell, whom I have invited to speak to you. Extend to him and the Anglo-Saxon Clubs the courtesy and fellowship that is logical to the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. MARCUS GARVEY. President-General. Universal Negro Improvement Association. AMERICA'S HONOR DEMANDS THAT MARCUS GARVEY BE FREED WHITE SOUTHERNER DISCLOSES REAL ATTITUDE OF THE WHITE AMERICAN TOWARDS THE NEGRO IN THESE UNITED STATES PURITY OF RACE SLOGAN OF ANGLO-SAXON CLUBS AS WELL AS U. N. I. A. Negro Is Not Free-Despite the Civil War and Three Amendments to Constitution—Garvey's Idea About Self-Development for Negro Is Right—Negro Has No Real Chance in America WHITE AMERICA MUST SEE THAT MARCUS GARVEY IS ALLOWED TO CONTINUE HIS WORK HERE Mr. Chairman and members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, I have never in my life been more touched and more moved than by the cordial reception that you give to me and my friends tonight. I wish I were an orator so that I might give adequate expression to the feelings and the thoughts that are moving in me. I would like to tell you how it was that I came to know more about your organization and the purposes for which it stands. Major Ernest Severe Cox, a man who spent six years of his life traveling all around the world in order to study racial problems in various parts of the world, wrote a book called "White America." Major Cox was for several years in Africa; he worked in the mines in South Africa; he went through the whole length and breadth of Africa from the Cape up to Coairo—5,000 miles studying the various problems that came under his observation. He wrote this book, "White America," the purpose of which was to find a real and ultimate solution to that great problem which has vexed the mind and heart of all America now for 200 years and more. His book was very violently criticized by certain newspapers which I believe, are under the influence of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. So it was a great surprise as well as a great pleasure to Major Cox when he received a letter from a member of the Garvey organization in St. Louis. This letter told Major Cox that its writer had seen a copy of "White America," had read it and felt tremendously encouraged to find that there was a white man advocating essentially the cause of the Garvey movement. He wrote that there were many things in that book which he could not approve of as his point of view was different. But it was a great joy to the members of that Chapter of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to find that there was a white man who was seriously advocating those very purposes for which Marion Garvey stood. Major Cox's Letter He requested Major Cox to write a letter to be read before that branch of your organization. Major Cox wrote a very strong and very moving letter. This letter was read by Mr. Gheto before his organization and he wrote back to Major Cox and said, "I wish you could have been here to have seen the enthusiasm with which your let- For Weak and Run-Down Men I FOUND GLANT-OX MOST EXTRAORDINARY Says a Noted Viennese Scientist, Dr. Johann Von Zimmer Triangle Laboratories, Inc., 115 Balken Ave. Bronx, New York Gentlemen: My congratulations for young graduates that Ox which is another triumph in gland therapeutics.

Major Cox was naturally very pleased, with this and later when Mr. Ghetto asked if he might use the letter to publish. Major Cox suggested that he enlarge on the letter. The result of that was a little pamphlet which Mr. Cox wrote and published, which he calls "Let My People Go." Thus pamphlet is dedicated to Marcus Garvey. It is a message from white men who wish to keep the white race white to black men, who wish to keep the black race black; and it is dedicated to Marcus Garvey, that great leader who has sought to do for his own race what the greatest of white Americans sought to do for that race and to encourage the race to do for itself - none other than Abraham Lincoln. With Marcus Garvey at Atlanta With Marcus Garvey at Atlanta This pamphlet was brought to the attention of your great leader and he corresponded with Major Cox and his dine when I went down to Georgia to address the Georgia Legislature in favor of a bill for the preservation of racial integrity. I went to the prison to see Marcus Garvey. I expected to see a man with bowed head; I expected to see a man depressed and unhappy and embittered, because in the meantime I had read his "Appeal, to the Soul of White America," and it had touched me to the heart. When I saw him I saw a man with head erect, with eyes open and clear, unshamed and unafraid, free from all bitterness, free of tamen; one word of complaint escaped his lips, not one word of beaming; his one thought was for you—his people and his loyal followers. And as we discussed these matters I found that in every essential principle the ideas and ideas of Marcus Garvey were identical with those of the organization which I have the honor to represent—the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America. Man of Highest Idealism There, was nothing that Marcus Garvey could not say frankly and freely to me without danger of misunderstanding; there was nothing that I could not say to Marcus Garvey openly and frankly and freely without danger of misunderstanding; and I realized that I was in the presence of a man of the highest ideals and the noblest courage and the profoundest wisdom; a man dedicated to a noble and a sacred cause—the cause of the independence and interility of his race. On my return to Richmond at the next meeting of the Anglo-Saxon Clubs, I reported the result of my conference with your leader. The newspapers were represented at that meeting and the Richmond Times Dispatch published an account of my talk. In the next issue of the Norfolk Journal and Guide, there were large headlines spread across the top of the page "Garvey In Prison, Forms New Alliance." The readers of the Norfolk Journal and Guide were reminded that Garvey had formerly been a member of the Ku Klux Klan, and that his association with the Ku Klux Klan having been cut short by his imprisonment, even in prison had a close occasion to ally himself with other enemies of the race, namely, the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America. That article was copied in the Negro Press all over the country, and unfortunately, I am afraid, caused a great deal of ill feeling and ill will. With the Richmond Division Garvey did not hesitate to assume full responsibility for everything that he had said to me and her, every assurance that he had made me well, to Mister Cup. As a result of that, the wife of my good loving name to Mister Garvey always that they. I understood a position of the teammate of the duo- sister, Garvey, in the position of the team- mate, Garvey. LIBERTY HALL; New York, Wednesday Night, October 28th.-Seldom has Liberty Hall witnessed a larger and more interested gathering than that which assembled tonight and gave a cordial welcome to Mr. John H. Powell, a Southern white gentleman, President of the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America, who appeared to speak to the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and publicly express in behalf of his organization its endorsement of the Garvey movement and its plans for Negro uplift with a view of effecting a solution of the race problem in America. Mr. Powell was accompanied by three other gentlemen of his race who are also interested in the movement, and was deeply moved by the reception accorded him. He was given full latitude to express himself freely on the Negro question, and availed himself of that opportunity to state frankly the attitude of the South toward the Negro-an attitude which completely accords with the Garvey movement in denouncing the mixture of the races and advocating that Negroes seek to develop themselves and create a government of their own on the continent of Africa. Mr. Powell showed that common ground existed between his organization and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in that fundamentally both organizations stood for the preservation and purity of their race. He took the stand that the Negro in America was not free despite the Civil War, the Emancipation Proclamation and three Amendments to the United States Constitution, all of which were designed to set the Negro free. There is no chance for the Negro in America, he declared, and there is no use being sentimental and visionary about the matter; it was a practical question and the facts must be faced. Propounding the question and answering it himself—why the Negro is not free in America—Mr. Powell said it was because the civilization that he is living under is not his own, for which, however, the Negro was not responsible. Any white man would indeed be bold, said Mr. Powell, who would deny to the Negro the possibility of the development of a higher order of civilization and a culture of his own, for history proved that the Negro had a civilization which dated back 6000 years; but, he added, it is perfectly sure that the Negro will not develop in America. In America, he continued, the Negro holds a position of an intellectual and cultural parasite and no race can develop or evolve unless it is standing on its own feet and is supported by its own backbone. By scientific reasoning, the speaker pointed out the impossibility of two races living together without mixing, and while the argument against mixing did not necessarily infer that either race warbad, there was the danger of their being different and the mixture may produce something that may be tremendously harmful and painful to both races. If the Negro stayed in America he asserted, he was going to mix with the white people, and, the white people outnumbering him eight to one, the result would be the death of the Negro race. There is no use deceiving ourselves, said Mr. Powell, but conditions could not be changed that make America a place of toil and trial and tribulation for the Negro. He paid a glowing tribute to the Negro for the part he has played in building up America, and for this he added, "no sane' or decent white man could fate the Negro"; the white man, he declared, owed the Negro a debt, and, with great emphasis, he said, "we intend that the whole world shall see that we appreciate this debt and will pay it not only justly but generously," and will see to it, further, that in any solution of the problem the Negro will get not only what is coming to him but get the honor and glory that grateful hearts should pour out in abundance to the Negro. He wound up his speech by paying a wonderful tribute to Marcus Garvey and said that if the South realized what Garvey stood for and what he meant, it would rise up to a man and demand that this great leader be released and restored to his people. He demanded freedom for Marcus Garvey and came to a dramatic close by saying, "If there is any honor in the American nat' we promise you that when Marcus Garvey it free he shall not be deported." At the conclusion of Mr. Powell's address, the following resolution was presented and unanimously approved by the gathering: presented and unanimously approved by the galleries. "Be it resolved that we the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association believing as we do in the integrity of all races, and especially that of our own, do hereby signify our willingness to accept any help that the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America may proffer us in our struggle toward nationhood and in our fight for racial purity." On the platform were several members of the Executive Council of the U. N. I. A., including Sir William Sherill, acting president general; Sir Clifford Bourne, chancellor; Hon. G. E. Carter, secretary general; Hon. Percival Burrows, first assistant secretary general; Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis; Sir Levi Lord, auditor general; Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey, wife of the president general, and Hon. Dr. J. J. Peters, acting president of the New York local. Prior, so the speechmaking, a specially prepared musical program was rendered in which the band and the choir participated together with the popular artists Mme. Barrier Houston and Mme. Fraser Robinson. Preliminary addresses of welcome were delivered by Hon. Dr. Peters and Mrs. Garvey, while Hon. G. E. Carter introduced the speaker of the evening. Mr. Powell was given a respectful and attentive audience and was cheered for his frankness of expression on the Negro question; his references to Marcus Garvey were loudly applauded and when at the close he declared that every effort would be made to see that Garvey is not deported, the audience wont frantic with applause. Hon. Mr. Sherill delivered the address of thanks which brought to a close a very interesting meeting that threw light on the Negro question and fortified the position of the Universal. Negro Improvement Association and its leader, Marcus Garvey, in the fight for African Redemption and a government for Negroes. Improvement Association expressing our indignation at the injustice that had been met out to Marcus Garvey, expressing our approval of his activities for the integrity and independence of his race, and requesting that our sentiments be communicated to his wife, who was to be the guest of honor on that occasion, and requesting that if it were possible that arrangements may be made by which members of our organization could attend that meeting. The chairman of the Richmond Chapter at once replied cordially and courteously inviting us to attend the meeting. We did attend the meeting, and never in all my life have I heard speeches of greater force, of greater power than I heard that night, and it is as a result of that night* that I was asked to appear before you tonight. The Negro Is Awake One more thing: A member of your organization in Detroit got in touch with Major Cox and asked him to send out 60 copies of "White America"; Major Cox sent the copies out. A few days later he received a letter saying that before the package was opened all the copies were disposed of; please send 250 more. Major Cox did not have 250 copies to send but sent what he had. A few days later he received a letter from Detroit saying that there were 1,800 Negroes acting as book agents in Detroit selling "White America" to white people in Detroit. Within two weeks 1,700 copies of Major Cox's pamphlet were sent in Detroit. Think of what that means! It means that the Negro in the United States is today emancipate; he is arraigned; he hates no longer to the deputy and the blindness of the politician; he is beginning to look back in the face. It means that at least in Detroit, and I believe over the whole length and breadth of this land the Negro is being treated in some way the way people or half of the population then the white man who contributed blaming us was. Detroit. It was a bitter mortification to me to realize that the members of your organization were doing spontaneously what I have, been laboring for ten years to get the people of my care to do. And I want to congratulate you from the bottom of my heart on the courage and independence that you are showing in facing those facts and seeing them clearly and distinctly. And I speak to you not merely as a white American; I speak to you as a Virginian; I speak to you as the descendant of slave owners. The South Does Not Hate the Negro I want to say to you tonight that there is no decent white man in the South who can hate the Negro race; no decent man, no sane man who can have aught in his heart but feelings of kindness and of gratitude towards the Negro race. As you have heard before, your people did not come here willingly; they were captured by force and violence; they were thrust in between decks in the horrible pests ships; they were brought to America, and when they thought, they were going to breathe the free air of God's blue heaven and see God's green sky, they found themselves still shackled in the chains of slavery. And why? There were forests to be cut down; there was land to be tilled; there was work of all kinds to be done, and the white man wanted the work done but, did not want to take the trouble to do; if himself. Your ancestors did that work; it is owing to their muscle, to their brown, to their industry, to their good will that this country made the progress in a few years that otherwise would have taken hundreds of years. Gratitude to the Negro Not only that; these never was a people which under hardship and under oppression showed the spirit of kindness and sympathy which your people have shown. At a time when the nations of the world were fighting in a great war between the states—a war which was being fought on the path of the length of the sea, and your enemies all of whom were willing to kill. DR. PETERS AND MRS. GARVEY EXPLAIN WHAT THE NEGRO IN THE U. N. I. A. IS WORKING FOR AND THE VIEWS HE HOLDS NEGROES MUST MEET THEIR BROTHERS UPON PLANE OF EQUALITY Negro Will Again Build a Great Civilization and March from Obscurity to Power as Others Have Done—It Is Evident Negroes Cannot Outside of Africa Develop in a Manner That Will Benefit Posterity NEGRO HAS HELPED AMERICA BUILD; NOW AMERICA MUST HELP THE NEGRO IN TURN Hon. Dr. J. J. Peters said: My job this evening is to give a cheerful welcome to the gentlemen who have come to join hands with us in the great struggle for racial emancipation. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are willingly disposed at all times to join hands with those of our brothers who happen to be of a different blue, but we join hands in point of equality. We feel that after all the Negro is a power with whom the world must reckon; we feel that the day is passed when the Negro with his slavish psychology believed that he was inferior to other races. We have reached the point now where we believe that there is no such thing in the human family as an inferior race; that all races are equal biologically and that the circumstances under which they live shall determine their degree of intellectuality. down in Atlanta a few months ago and therefore he has no doubt in his mind regarding the calibre of Marcus Garvey is uncompromising in his attitude and in his demands for Negroes, just as Mr. Powell is uncompromising in his demands for his people; therefore, as two men of opposite races, they admire each other because there is no hypocrisy coming from them. Mr. Powell Must Meet on Level Terms We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association feel therefore that we must meet our brothers, whether they be yellow, brown or white, upon a plane of equality; if we must march on like men to victory we must march on regarding each other as equal in the sight of God and in the sight of man. For that reason we welcome to tonight these gentlemen who have come to us. Rise and Fall of Races Continuing. Dr. Peters traced the history of the rise and fall of races in an attempt to show that no race has permanently remained dominant and that whereas the Anglo-Saxon was in power today, centuries ago he was held in slavery by others and in like manner the Negro, though he was at the present time dubbed as an inferior race, would in course of time take the reins of power and march on to a new civilization. It is a foliage, he declared, to say that the Negro cannot create a government of his own, but he agreed that the Negro cannot in the Western world under Western civilization build up a civilization of his own nor a culture of his own because of the controlling influences around him, but under the guidance of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the Negro was looking forward in the day when in Africa he shall again create a civilization that will gain the admiration of the world. MR8. GARVEY SPEAKS "Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey was the next engager. She said: Mr. Garvey had prepared a welcome address for Mr. Powell and his associates, but unfortunately when I reached here tonight I received a telegram that it was delayed and could not reach here in time. So in my feeble way I will try to express to these gentlemen some of the views Mr. Garvey would like to express." Mr. Powell is well acquainted with Mr. Curvey because he visited him down in Atlanta a few months ago and therefore he has no doubt in his mind regarding the calibre of Marcus Garvey. He knows that Marcus Garvey is uncompromising in his attitude and in his demands for Negroes, just as Mr. Powell is uncompromising in his demands for his people; therefore, as two men of opposite races, they admire each other because there is no hypocrisy coming from them. Mr. Powell is a Southern gentleman. We in the North have been accustomed to white gentlemen coming into our midst and telling us how they love us, what they will do for us and how they will do this and the next thing to bring about social equality. Keeping the Race Pure We are very busy at this time trying to lift our race to the standard and to the pinnacle that the white race holds today. We admire men of any race, and women, too, who will speak their mind and speak it plainly, therefore, this gathering will take no offence at anything Mr. Powell or his associates might say. We are here to be informed regarding the white man's attitude—especially the Southern white man's attitude toward the Negroes in America as these gentlemen believe in the purity of their race, so do we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association believe in the purity of our stock. It is true that because of slavery and abominable conditions consequent on slavery, of us we are very much mixed up, but we have reached the point where we do not want to be mixed up—any longer (Applause), and we are making every effort to keep our race pure and keep it black. White Race Should Help The white race will have no trouble from members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, when it comes to their women because we are working along those same lines and we condemn any man or woman in our race who dares to step over the borders. Much of the abominable conditions in the South has been brought about by that sort of thing, and if this organization can get a firmer footing in the Southern States the white race will have no trouble with black folks along those lines. But we say to the white race that we are an ambitious, aspiring lot of people and for that reason we do not believe that we can remain in America all our days nor can our prosperity develop themselves here in America because the white race is in the majority and it is hopeless to expect that they will permit another race to develop alongside of them. After deep consideration, therefore, and after experiments regarding the solution of this problem, we have reached the conclusion to develop ourselves in our Mother Country where we belong, and in this effort we expect the white race to give us its moral support. We did not come here of our own will and pleasure; the white man brought us to these shores hundreds of years ago to help him build up America; we have helped him to build up America and now we feel that we have served our purpose in America; America has been built up; it is the greatest republic in the world today; it is the banker nation of the world; the savior of descent Europe and America no longer needs the Negro. But I know and Marcus Garvey known that some portions of white America that has a confidence is represented by these gentlemen who are born to speak to us tonight. They have preformed their assistance to us at this time to help us build a country of our own to help us toward the goal of independence and we thank them through the hostess of our hearts for any assistance they may need us to undertake this task. Our Program Our mission is to establish a site A Governor Issues a Statement, but So Does the Majority Group—And Justice Is Deaf and Blind—Negro Must Improve His Status Some people still doubt the need of a federal anti-lynching law. "Let the States take care of their own," they say. We invite their attention to the State of Mississippi. On September 20 at New Albany a mob took a Negro, Jim Ivy, from a sheriff who made no fight to stop them, carried him to Rocky Ford, tied him to a stake, and burned him alive, after the traditional fashion of lynchings in the romantico Old South. Governor Whitefield had the detency to issue a statement on September 21, saying: The time has come when the law-abiding citizens of Mississippi should assert themselves in no uncertain terms against such mob action and should rally to the support of the peace officers in maintaining the integrity of the law. On the same day the Memphis News Scimitar, published photographs of lynching scenes. These photographs show members of the mob with drawn guns and Jim Ivy with a noose around his neck; the faces of scores of mob members are so plain that a police officer would not have the slightest difficulty in recognizing and arresting them. Did the members of that mob feat Mississippi justice? Were they afraid that, recognized, they would be punished? Not at all. One of the mob members, let himself be photographed standing on a platform with Jim Ivy. He was warned, the News Scimitar says, that the picture would be published. "All right; go ahead," he replied. One William - N. Bradshaw booster that he was a member of the mob. The Jackson Daily News quotes this Mississippi man follows: Not an officer in Union County or any of the neighbor counties will point out any member of the crowd. Why, if he did, the best thing for him to do would be to jump into an airplane headed for Germany—quick. Sure, the officers know who were there. Everybody down there knows everybody else. We're all neighbors, and neighbors' neighbors. Saturday night there were at least 10,000 men with pistols on their hips at New Albany, the county seat, but it was a perfectly ordered crowd. Everybody was in their shirts sleeves, and no one tried to conceal his identity. A delegation of us went to Johnny the sheriff and told him that we were tired of feeling around and that he had to produce lynx or take the consequences. He said, "Well, boys . . . I'll put him in the county jail here. If you let me get him in jail and locked up, and then overpower me and get him I can't help it." We agreed to that. . . Investigation? Shucks, there won't be any—or if there is it won't amount to anything. No officer down there is going to dare try to identify anyone, because nobody's mad about it. Even one of the judges down there said he didn't believe in mob law except in a few cases, and this was one of them, and that he had gone to the burning if it hadn't been bad policy. They'd be plenty mad though, if anyone were arrested, and there'll be a million dollars ready, in five minutes to go his bond. William Bradshaw was right. The sheriff announced that he had recognized "no one in the mob. When reporters called the governor's attention to Bradshaw's defiance and showed him the photographs which revealed the faces of members of the mob, he replied, "I have no plans for an investigation." Mississippi is Mississippi. It is no crime to burn a man alive in that State, if his skin is black. Neither county nor State officials will punish a gang of murderers, if their victim is a Negro. If the people of this country want lynching stopped, they will have to do it by Federal action. For Your Health! SICK Men and Women, do not neglect your Health.

Holder, in Tribute to Great Leader, Tells the Reason for His Suffering—Prudent Silence Would Have Secured Immunity, but Marcus Garvey Is Not Built That Way LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, Nov. 1—In accordance with the custom which has been established since the imprisonment of Hoi, Marcus Garvey, to celebrate the first Sunday of each month as Garvey Day among all the divisions of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the New York Local observed today with the usual display of patriotism to the great leader who has given to the world an organization that has created recognition for the Negro and aroused his consciousness as never before. Thousands of people were present in Liberty Hall tonight and gave unmistakable evidence of their loyalty to their leader and their determination to carry on the work with the same vigor as though he were present to guide the destinies of the organization. In proof of their loyalty the entire audience unanimously approved of the following telegram to be sent to the Associated Press and the Department of Justice at Washington: the impression given by the daily press to the unsuspecting public, that Harlem again splits over Garvey. Marcus Garvey is still leading the New York Division (a branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association) onward towards the redemption of Afroas. Hon. G. A.

COOPER 8PEAKS The first speaker introduced was Mrs. George W. Cooper, Lady Chapman of the Boston Division. She told of her devotion to the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and of the fact that she was among the first seven members who organized the Boston Division. It was a great inspiration to her, she said, to appear on the rostrum of Liberty, Hall, and that inspiration she would take back to her Division and give them a greater urge to carry on the work. Speaking of Hon. Marcus Garvey, she said Mr. Garvey was a born leader, and though he may die in jail, his spirit would be always alive in the Liberty Halls throughout the world to give his followers inspiration to carry on the work. HON. WESLEY HOLDER SPEAKS Hon. Wesley Holder spoke on the subject, "harvey the Genius," Marcus Garvey is a genius, he said, because he has given to the world a new blog and a new vision. Marcus Garvey is suffering behind prison walls today because he dared to tell Negroes the truth. Garvey's suffering is nothing new, because every great leader, every great originator of a new idea, has had to pay the price, and any individual that gives to the world a new religion never receives his reward in his own day. Marcus Garvey, therefore, will not receive his reward today, but when he is gone his name will forever be in the mouths of black men and shall be recorded on the pages of history. Marcus Gawley feels that Negrens in the Western World cannot live side by side with the white man in the same territory and receive the same terms of equality; he knows that if the two races were to continue living side by side, some day or the other the face that is in the merger will walk up the minority race, even as the American white man exterminated the red Indian. Because of that he is blinking a way for black men to fol- (Continued from page 2) (Continued from page 2) people in the South stayed on the plantations, protected the women and children, raised the crops and sent the food to the front to the army that was fighting to keep them in slavery. And white people in the South knew that; and white people in the South know what it means, and they are no unsusible to feelings of gratitude and of thankfulness. We know what we owe you; we know it and we integri that the whole world shall see that we appreciate this debt and pay it not only just but generously. (Applause.) And what is this situation that forces us? It is not a new situation; it has come up again and again in the past; we see it in various parts of the world today. What is this situation? The Civil War was meant that the slaves in America may be free; that war was won, the Emancipation Proclamation proclaimed them free; the 17th Amendment to the United States Constitution secured that freedom; the 18th Amendment made them citizens of this country and the 15th Amendment provided penalties on any State that should attempt to take the right of suffrage from any man on account of his race, color or previous condition of servitude. The great war, three constitutional amendments, and is the Negro in America, today free (Cities of 1911 not) Does Not Receive A Square Deal In the South highest people will tell you that the Negro does not get a square deal in any court of justice; any honest man will tell you that the Negro is not allowed to vote freely in the South. In the South he is treated legally and politically with less consideration than if he were some alien born beyond our shores who had lived in this country for a few years and taken out naturalization papers. No one denies the unfairness and the injustice of that; I least of all. In spite of the fact that the Enunciation Proclamation and these amendments to the Constitution exist, these slavery today in the South and a worse slavery than that which existed before the war of secession. At that time the slave at least was the property of his master and it was to the master's interest that his property he well taken care of. Today in sections of the South they have something worse than chattel slavery; they have peonage where the people are slaves but are not the property of masters, and it is not to the advantage of the man who is getting the benefit of that slavery to see to it that his workers are properly hired, properly fed and properly clothed and properly looked after. The Postage System Such conditions exist in some parts of the South that would make, your blood run cold. The story I am going to tell you I have from a former governor of Georgia—a man, whom many of you at one time learner to hate, but a man who sacrificed his whole political career in order that he might break my postage in the State of Georgia. He told me of that case of this farmer who had gone into the court; he wanted labor, curtains low so that, they may ultimately come out victorious. No Prudent Silence Marcus Garvey's suffering is one with which we should all sympathize, because if he did no Dukes, Kelly, Miller and all the other Negro leaders are doing—taking the side of prudent silence—Garvey would not be behind prison bars today. Marcus Garvey does not feel that he should take the course of prudent silence; he sees the Negro going towards destruction, and he has told every black man what might happen unless he arouses himself and fights for a home for himself. Continuing, Mr. Holder said he entreated the members of the organization to sink their petty differences and think in terms of larger things. If we must fight, let us marshal our forces and direct our batteries toward the common enemy. This is no time for black men to fight black men. This is a serious time. The torch of a great conflagration is lit in Europe today and we do not know what may happen in the next few days; so we are telling the black man to organize himself to stand together in this great movement—the Universal Negro Improvement Association—and follow off with the great determination which Marcus Garvey has given us. It was the duty of every loyal member to follow the leaders that Marcus Garvey lives left; to carry on his work. If we believe in Marcus Garvey, it is our duty to do what he tells us to do, remembering that he is away from us and cannot actively carry on the work himself, and if this work must go on there must be someone who will carry it forward. In conclusion, he said: This is a serious time in the history of our movement; it is a time for us to close ranks and fight on towards a new and greater achievement. The world believes that it has seen the black man achieve, but our achievements have been under great handicaps. We have achieved under the weight of Jim Crow laws and in the midst of segregation, lynching and burning, but real achievement will be seen when we have built a government of our own in Africa. Necessities were brought in this court for travel offenses. You see they arrest them for vavariance; if they do not happen to have a job they arrest them and make it a crime to travel a job. They are brought into court and tried. This poor fellow cannot play the fine and is to be put in prison. The farmer steps up and pays the life for him and then the prisoner is apprehended over to him to work for him until his father has paid back the amount of the fine. That sounds pretty tasy because anybody would rather work on a farm then to eat in jail. But let us see how it works out. The poor fellow is taken on the farm, he has got to eat, he has got to have clothes, he is not allowed to go into the market and buy his food and clothes, he buys them from the father and he former keeps the account, and by the time that poor devil has worked for that farmer for two years he is more in debt to him than the war at the start; if he tries to get away they out the blood bounds after him and shoot him. Now there was a farmer who had a lot of those peas and they began to get restless. they wanted to go away and the farmer and not blinded by the fire he had a guilty conscience. And this is what he did: He took men out to his field in broad daylight ofclock in the afternoon, and started them digging a pit until they had a wide ditch deep enough. He took gun and shot number one of his labourers in the head and kicked him over in the ditch and the other two covered him up, when he was covered up he shot number two and the other nine covered him up, at so he went on down the line and shot the plever and kicked the list one over the ditch and covered him up himself. "Hugh Dorsey's Sacrifice" Hugh Dorssey Science That happened in America: our America, free America, but Hugh Dorssey determined that these things should not be and he attempted to break up that nihilistic custom, with the result that he did not break it up entirely but he did improve conditions tremendously and he was kicked out of office and will never again hold political office in the State of Georgia as a result. Many people whom you have been taught to regard as your enemies are really your friends, and Hugh Dorssey is one of them who has sacrificed his whole political career to attempt to stop that injustice. It did not stop there; they began soon to make peons of white people too. You all know of the case down in Florida where they had white peons. The Legislature heard of it and they had something to say about it and things have been cleaned-up a little bit since then. Justice For White As Well As Colored You cannot be unjust to one member of your citizens without endangering the liberty of all your citizens. If there is going to be justice in America there has got to be justice for the colored man and for the white man.

I have given you some idea now. If you did not know it before, as to how your people are treated in the South. But in the North and West they do offer you political and social equality. Let us see how you are treated in the North and the West. How many of you have heard of Springfield, the home of Abraham Lincoln, where hundreds of your people were shot down like cattle? How many of you have heard of East St. Louis, where the only fault of your people was that they were willing to work where the white people wanted to live and get higher wages for living. How many of you have heard of Chicago, where the fault of your people was that they wanted decent houses to live in in decent communities. Not only did they shoot your people down by the handbells, they打动了 your houses, they burned the roofs off over your heads, and in Pennsylvania a few years ago the Mayor of Chester, Pa, got his police force and rounded up every Negro in Chester. there were about 600 of them and marched them down to the southern border of that town and said, "to back South where you belong, we won't have you here." More recently the Mayor of John town, Pa, said that no Negro should live in the town and tried to send all the Negroes out of town. Has the Negro a Chance in America? Yes, we do have lynchings in the South. We have lynchings, we have peonage, but you never know of any such thing happening south of the Mason-Dixon line. Worse things are done to you in those parts of the country where they claim they are going to give you social equality, and many people really believe they are going to get it. If worse things happen to you there than happen to you in the South what chance is there for you hope in America? Now, there is no use I being sentimental, there is no need of a country we live in a practical time and we are practical people and we have got to face family, and the rest of the matter is that there is not a News on the United States of America today who is free nor one. The war did not make you free and constitutional amendments did not make you free and the N. A. A. C. P. has not made you free. Why aren't you free? Let us go right down to the rock bottom of it. Why aren't you free? You have not magnificent people here in this country - people it has no people of intelligence, people it has no people of compassion. We are the first people to form it to be world. Why is it that you are not free? What I am meant to say to you is nothing new to you. Why the Negro Is Not Free You are not first to be aware the civilization that you are in under is not your own. *Capitulus* That man would not be held who would do to the Nazi the Soya security of the development of a higher order of civilization.

Perhaps the Chinese may do it. Your civilization has 6,000 years, the white man whose ancestors were going on or chad in skins through the giants, three thousand years ago would be indeed hold who did assert that if was impossible for the Nerma to develop his own civilization and his own culture. But it is perfectly sure that you will never do that in America. In America you have the position of intellectual and cultural parasites. No race can develop, no race can evolve unless it is standing on its own feet and is supported by its own backbone. The whole legal system was based on this idea of ease; their religion was based on this idea of ease; their politics was based on this idea of ease; their whole civilization was based on it; everything was based on it. It was the most inrored system that human wit has ever devised. They even went so far as to authorize the soldiers to stay all illegally mixed persons and they did not stop it. Nothing has ever stamped it. Watch a man smoking a cigarette. You see the smoke up in circles, curling and mixing in the air around your, digestion, yes, and it is a law of physics that no two fluids whether hot or gasses can come in contact without diffusing and that diffusing, widens until a state of equilibrium is reached and you have a uniform fluid. What is true of funds is true of races. As surely as is in his hewn any two races that live side by side for any length of time are going to mix. Well, now, it does not necessarily mean that either of these races is a bad race because you want to prevent a fatal mixing. Here are two chemicals; this chemical is a benzene chemical; it is a good thing; it is fine for you; it does you a lot of good; and here is another that is splendid; it is a harmless, good chemical; but more them together and you may get a deadly poison. The Danger of Mixed Races Now it is not a question of whether this race is better or lower or the other is higher or lower, that is not the point at all. The danger does not come from one being higher and the other lower. The danger comes from their lower, different, and it is not to see that either of two races is superior, but rather that the mixture of these races may produce something that may be tremendously harmful and difficult to both face. Now if you people stay in America, you are going to mix with the whole people and the whole people encounter you ought to do. What will they do to my friends? That will mean in the death of your race. If you stay here willingly it will mean the suicide of your race. Do Not Be Deceived Yes, I know the white people that want to bring you here that white people that are around saying, Yes, the Neo-Nazi birthrate is decreasing and the New York death rate is increasing, and at the end of January, there won't be a "Who Men invariably see women Negro living in America. "That is what they are saying. 'We will keep them here and use them and let them die out.' That is what most of them are saying, at inter-racial conferences, and they are saying that to your people you can try to cajole you. Are you going to stay here and let yourselves be used? By a decreasing birth rate and an increasing death rate if you stay here it means the death of your race—the suicide of your race. There is no use deceiving yourselves and there is no use our deceiving ourselves, with all the good will in the world, with all of the understanding in the world we cannot do away, with conditions that make America a place of fall and trial and tribulation for you. People cannot help their instincts; they cannot help it to save their lives, and some of the wisest and best people are very often the people who are most filled with prejudice and with bigotry. You have seen that yourself and we cannot help it; we cannot take it out of people. What we can do is to galvanize, as President Cohleide said the other day, "That we are in the best seat." Preserving the Races Now your people and our people are in the same tiny you want to preserve your people; and don't want the Negro race to die in America and I want to preserve my people. I do not want the white race to die in America. We have that interest in common. In addition to that you have learned nobly and generously to help us here in America, and it is due to us to realize what you have done for us and what you have meant to us and to see to it that in any solution of this problem you just not only what is coming to you but not the tribute and the glory that greatful beasts should pour out in abundance to you. A Muscarriage Of Justice My friends, I best hoped tonight that another Southerner would be here with me and address you. I mean George Gordon-Battle, the attorney for your great leader. Several weeks ago I have been asked to prepare an article on George and his movement, and I wrote to Mr. Little telling him what I wanted to do and told him to give me some words to write a book. He sent me George's appeal to the President of the United States for a period; he told me that every word of that appeal was welcome and sincere and this morning when I called him to get his mind to answer to whether or not he could be with us tonight he told me we were to come to him; that this way I was allowed work in the war and that I was allowed to work and it was impossible to get away, but he announced me to say to this morning that this opinion, the trial of Mr. George was the greatest trial of the century, that there was no evidence which could have convinced him of that if he were convinced and that he believed it was only The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. LET'S PUT IT OVER THE APPEAL TO SECURE FREEDOM FOR MR. GARVEY. THERE will be a general reaction, we believe, to the movement started in Liberty Hall Sunday afternoon of last week to create a national sentiment, favorable to the release of President-General Marcus Garvey from prison. The appeal will be made in a concerted way to create the necessary sentiment: Public sentiment rules mankind. Mankind is generally swayed by what is just and humane, but they have to be shown. The way to show them is to take the facts to them and to so interest them by the presentation of the facts as to enthuse them with a desire to help bring about the desired result. It is a good old saying, and a true one, that "Error cannot long prevail when truth is left free to combat it." It is good that it is so. The world would be a much worse place to live in than it is if it were not so. In presenting the appeal for the release of President-General Garvey from prison Acting President-General William L. Sherrill, among other things, said: We feel confident that when the case of Mr. Garvey is brought directly to the bar of public opinion, when it is brought directly to the attention of the voters, those who put in office our district attorneys, governors and presidents—we feel that when the case of Marcus Garvey is laid openly upon their hearts that he will get justice at the bar of public opinion. Hence there has been organised a committee—I would like to term it "The Flying Squadron," which is going to put the whole case of Marcus Garvey before, the individual voters of the country so that it will be tried before the bar of public opinion; and any case that is put unbiasedly and clearly before the bar of public opinion. nine times out of ten you get a favorable verdict. This is your fight. As I said in my speech Sunday night before last, it is our fight because the imprisonment of Mr. Garvey was not simply an effort to get Marcus Garvey out of the way, but to stop the thing that Garvey started and which you are trying to do; and this meeting this evening marks the launching of this campaign. Yes, as Mr. Sherrill says, "this is your fight." Make no mistake about that. That being true, it is your business to enter the fight with all of the enthusiasm and financial backing necessary to accomplish the desired result. The membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association can be relied upon to do this; more, it can be relied upon to go outside of the organization and strive to enlist the sympathy and active co-operation of their neighbors in the good work. The Hon. Levi Lord, in his address, ably seconded the address of Acting President-General Sherrill, among other things, saying: Let this meeting, therefore, this afternoon, lay the foundation for a national rally for the release of our great and noble leader. With this committee working in collaboration with the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Universal Political Union in an appeal to the hearts of America and the hearts of the powers that be. I see no reason why our leader will not be returned to us without sacrificing a principle. The Negroes of the United States are going to rally to the release of Garvey. The way to get what you want is to go after it with such determination as to convince those who withhold it that you are determined to have it. That is the way the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association must go about the serious business of making sentiment that will help in securing the release of our leader from prison. They must convince their neighbors, their friends, their acquaintances, that they are in earnest, that they mean business, and that having a just cause they invite their sympathy and co-operation. When they have done this they will be surprised at the response they will receive and the success they will have. So, then, let each one go at the work with enthusiasm and a determination to win success. MR. SCHWAB'S RULES FOR SUCCESS WHERE is the person who does not want to succeed, who does not want to make a place for himself in the time and the place where he is and of which he is part? There are not among those who do the world's thinking and work. They are not among those who do the world's thinking and work. They are rather among the parasites who live on the social body without gratifying anything to its life and achievements. The persons who amused are those who go about the work of life with a purpose to succeed, and oftener than otherwise they make their own lives which prove them in the effort to do so. After all, every person is the confidence of his own fortunes; that is to say, he has in him the characteristic that makes for success, and consciousness or consciousness protects him of them to accomplish his purpose. He gives the best of his own preoccupations. He gives the best of his own preoccupations, and when very helped to them those who are most interested in them they also are, and as of the rather by the most interested by the most interesting and effective. It is on this account that he is the most interested in the world we live in, we have made it THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1925 THE COLOR LINE To a self-respecting Negro it is necessating to see the way some Negroes in the face of the facts still insist on playing the tail to some white man's kite. Associated with him at best our position is secondary. Caesar prefereed as he expressed it to be first in an Iberian village rather than be second at Rome. The Negro's status, is going to continue low in the minds of others so long as he is contented to hang on to persons or places where he is not wanted. In he too weak or timid to stand alone and to tell all go hang, who would shun him as though he were a laper or a mad dog. When the Negro evinces a justifiable pride in himself and his kind to the extent of, preferring the association of his peers rather than misusing on tagging on to his self-styled superiors then will others think him a fit associate. We can blot out the color line quicker and more effectively by having as much pride in ourselves as the other group has in itself. We should not want to be with any man any more than he will be with us. When we can cease to pursue him or hang around his promises he will have more respect for us and less desire to be rid of us. Porters Endorse Scholarship To Send Sons to College "Roll caps" at the Pennsylvania Station have endowed a university scholarship to be awarded each year to the son of a station porter who has achieved the highest high school record in English, mathematics, history and chemistry. The scholarship is valued at $200 a year. Each porter has pledged himself to give a dollar a year until the winners have completed their college courses. The first winner of the scholarship, Marcus Carpenter, 13 years old, is now a freshman at Howard University, Washington, D. C. Among other requirements, the winner of the award must be "an obedient boy to his parents and teachers;" must have convinced his parents and teachers "that he desires to make his mark in the world," and "must be sound in body and in mind." Kingdom of Judah Remnant Of Hebrew Monarchy Kingdom of Judah is the name given to that part of the Hebrew monarchy that remained after the revolt of the ten tribes in 275 B.C. It comprised the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, together with some Danite and Simonele cities, and had Jerusalem for its capital. The Kingdom of Judah was ruled over by twenty kings and lasted until 588 B.C. When Neubuchlenniezca captured Jerusalem, destroyed and plundered the temple and carried the inhabitants into captivity, sang the Kansas City Times. When Babylon fell under the conquering arms of Cyrus that monarch permitted the Jews to return to their homes and rebuild their temple. From that time the Jews remained a subject nation and were ruled over successively by the Persians, Macedonians, Egyptians and Romans. Editorial Opinion of the Negro Press A line should be drawn on the Negro who is in us with only for what he can get out of us through being thought to be with us. The men whom we follow in politics ought to be not only able but unquestionably loyal to the group's intereste. Our votes ought to go to men above being bought or of serving self at any cost to the group. —Boston Chronicle. It is all very well for people to tell us that there are good, fair and just men of other races, and it is not necessary for us to dispute this fact, but the question of the good man of other races is not the thing with which we are concerned. What we are concerned about is, to put forward the good men of our own race and let them serve. —Cleveland Call. Every young man or woman today is destined to witness, amazing progress in this land of ours during the next fifty years. It is the task of every individual to study and see what this progress will be, and contribute to the limit of his ability toward what is most certainly destined to be the most amazing and wonderful civilization that this one world has ever seen. — Tampa Bulletin. Negro leaders rather have developed the habit of differing one from another, and every program or policy submitted has been killed or crippled by a vexating leadership, which could not find a common ground for the meeting of minds and actions. —Atlantic Independent.

We are our and powerless, notwithstanding we look through various divisions and organizations. All of us go with hope and heart! It should be encouraged in every man and every woman. What we must do is to win confidence for ourselves. We can do it through commitment. a statement made by Mr. Samuel Vauclain, president of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, at Philadelphia, one of the successful men of the country. He said he had always saved money because he had always been too busy to spend what he made, and that he always looked after details and put the best that he had in every job that he had. Any person who purges the like course will always have a good job and a dollar to the good. Mr. Charles M. Schwab president of the board of directors of the Bethlehem Steel Works, one of the outstanding and upstanding men of the nation, in recent address at the University of Chicago took us all into his confidence and told us of the rules which governed him in becoming one of the most successful business men of the age. He said: "Unless a man loves his work, nothing is accomplished." Mr. Schwab is a man whose wildest dreams have come true, and he explained it this way: "I keep going ahead and building because I can't help it. I never had any real pleasure in anything else. "True economy is to take each detail and study it to familiarity. "Success comes to the man who makes a thing as well as any one else, and who makes it cheaper. "Keep in a happy frame of mind. My motto is just laugh, no matter what the troubles. "Teach a man to think and concentrate. The great men in industry are not university men. They have had to push forward in life themselves. "My idea is to be happy and fearless in business. I don't believe in Ben Franklin's advice about saving pennies. Look after the big things and the pennies will follow. It is personal effort that counts. All the dollars in the world are as nothing to the thrill of successful accomplishment." It does not matter how small the job you may have, it is your business and to your interest to put the best there is in you in the job. When you have done that you have made a record for yourself of which you can be proud and which your employer will not overlook. And it does not matter how small the wage you earn, you are getting nowhere but standing still or slipping back, if you do not save a penny or more of it. So, then, the safest rule to succeed by is to put the best you have in the job and save a penny of what you make. The sooner you master the job you are about and the more pennies you save the sooner will you be in a position to start a little business of your own, how to conduct which successfully you should have learned in the service of others. And who does not want a business of his own? He who does not is a poor critter, indeed. WHITE DOMINATION OF COLORED RAGES MENACE TO PEACE OF THE WORLD THE mission of the early missionaries of the Christian religion, with the high example of Jesus and His apostles as fore-runners and guides, to evangelize mankind, to teach the brotherhood of man and the higher and better things in life, which come of the cultivation of neighborliness and helpfulness, has been perverted almost entirely, by the spirit which took possession of mankind upon the discovery of the Americas and the shorter route to the East Indies. The spirit of adventure and land and gold seeking, with the gradual development of the spirit of forcibly taking the lands discovered and making slaves or peons of the people forced out the missionary spirit and replaced it by land robbery and enforced labor, with government without consent of the conquered people. Tyranny and greed took the place of brotherly love and helpfulness, and faith in the good intentions of the missionaries and hatred of the land grabbers and enslavers became the common thing. The African World has declared that the white man's religion has ceased to be good enough for the African, because it has been used to enslave and rob him, and the former Premier Jans Christian Smuts, of the Union of South Africa, in discussing the strained relations which have grown up between the European rulers and the natives, declared that the natives no longer regard the Europeans as "goods." Truth to say, they are far from gods anywhere. They are intensely human, often beastly, as in their dealings with the Red Indians of the Americas, the Blackfellows of Australia and the black natives of Africa, and as they are now striving to deal with the Asiatics, especially those of East India, who are just now squirming with unrest and a determination to break the British tyranny by force, if necessary. At a recent church congress, in Eastbourne, England, Viscount Willingdon, who has held the positions of governor of Bombay and governor of Madras (1913-1924), very frankly declared that the World War had revealed to the colored man that the white man's civilization had many defects; that with the yearly output of educated Indians it should not be surprising that there was an ever-increasing desire among them to take a larger share in the responsibilities of the administration of their country. "I am convinced that if we wish to continue our association with and exercise our influence on those countries which the white races have developed largely for the ultimate benefit of the colored man, it must be in a spirit of absolute equality and not by arrogating to ourselves the attitude of race superiority which one sees so often at the present time," said Viscount Willingdon. Again, said the viscount: "The white man must no longer dominate the colored man even for his own good." Mr. Shoran Singha, a Christian Indian, speaking at the same time and place, said: "We have got to get rid of the idea that God sent the white man to rule the black. We must get rid of the white man's prestige." All this makes very plain talk by an experienced English administrator and an East Indian Christian. "We have plenty of the same sort of plain talk by members of the African Congress and by the African World and by the Universal Negro Improvement Association and The Negro World. It is plain talk to the white dominationists which is being constantly heard round the world, and which the African Arabe and Riffs of Northern Africa are translating in terms of shot and shell, so that all Europe not only hears but understands the import of it. When the white races substitute tyranny and greed for brothers' mood and fair dealing with their off-color brethren, they forfeit their "enlargement in Japhet," by the word of their father Noah, and their part in the new and better covenant concerning which Paul spoke, and the promise of higher and better things in the atonement and promise of Jesus. But the Nordics care nothing about all this, irregently considering themselves as the physical and spiritual law unto themselves. They are badly deceived. HEALTH TOPICS By DR: B. S. HERBEN of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE HEART An advertisement reads: "For fifteen dollars you can save yourself from having your checks, tampered with by those who wish to steal your money. You can protect the line which reads pay to the order of so and so, eight dollars." The amount line is the very essence of your, written order for payment. Buy our machine which prevents the creepy from destroying the heart of your check. For fifteen dollars, more or less, human beings can get projection from the enemy which not only steals his money but destroys life, the enemy which attacks the heart. To fully realize this you should understand something about this important organ. There is more than one way to love one's heart. The coward has his disgraceful way. The sensitive one with a conscience has his way of losing heart about pursuing some course of vengeance perhaps. The lover and sweetheart have their ancient and probably eternal habit of doing so. And some of us have a disastrous way of gradually losing our hearts or rather the full service which hearts should render to our bodies and our lives. The heart is a complicated study. I shall try to help you to see the organ itself and its relation to the rest of the body so that you may understand how important it is. that you take care of it. In response to a reader's request a series of articles on blood pressure, the heart and the circulation will be taken up in this column. For ages no one knew anything about the heart and the circulation of the blood. The ancients had many myths to account for the fact that one lives and dies. They thought that the blood was a curious mixture of red stuff with spiritia and animal fluids. Even the students of the sciences of old days had no notion that the blood flowed in a stream around and around the body "in a sort of circle." Between 100 and 200 B.C. Galen produced some 'original theories about the blood being sent to the lungs, but he thought that, this fluid acted in an "ebb and flow" manner. In the sixteenth century, another scientist wrote about the same theories which Galen had held, and since his book was primarily theological the poor fellow was burned at the stake for his palms. That we know what we know today about our hearts and other organs and can do so much to prolong and safeguard and lessen physical suffering is due to such men who throughout the ages have been willing to pay the price of life when ignorant authorities had not the courage to accept knowledge.

The Danish Government had maintained excellent schools for many years before the islands came into the possession of the United States. C.P.B. The cost to France of the World War was $32,000,000,000. asset in its proper functioning for the good of the whole.—Louisville Leader. 2 The weakness of the Negro race is that it falls to do what it can. It cries like a baby for the moon, falling to grasp the smaller things near at hand. We shall never enter into the fullness of power until we have practiced on weakness. There is no collegiate degree for the race which will not go to grammar school.—Kansas City Call. There are white people who stand amazed and agast when they come into contact with Negroes who demonstrate the ability to care for themselves and who show the aptitude to work out their problems to the satisfaction of everybody who thinks and is willing to organise the claims of the Negro to a fair and uncurreumcribed possibility.—Newport News Star. It is well known that like begets like, and organized efforts by selfish white people to discriminate against black people, as well as restrict their opportunities, is forcing black Americans to defend themselves and organize to meet the fast-increasing and growing menace of segregation. It leaves us our only alternative to fight fire with fire and, in order to do so, we must organize in every way possible and co-ordinate our organized forces under one directing corps of counsellors—Pacific Defender. If we wish to stop the crime, we have to take our children and young men and women from the streets and give them guarded occupation. Their providing amount and likening in the streets, safety infrastructure and thrills without visible means of support, make them brides and bridgingmen of crime; also and absture of that condition, which prohibits this to be "the most lawless, glorious on earth"—Washington Tribune. Every thinking man is sooner or later forcibly struck by the power of first impressions. It is a common experience that no matter how open to logic one's mind may be, that side of an issue first presented to an individual has at least a 20 per cent edge on any subsequent argument for the other side. The psychologists clinic that often, long after the conscious mind has accepted a new theory on an old question, the subconscious mind (the more powerful of the two) is still wrapped up in the old belief. Which may account for some of the glaring inconsistencies in the conduct of obviously sincere people. The very vigor with which a missionary preaches his faith may be an indication of the doubts which privately assail him. He yells loudly to drown the voice of his own heresy. The train of thought being developed in this article was induced by a piece of verse entitled "Italor" reproduced in a recent issue of the "Literary Digest" from the "New Republic." The poet, Winyer Bynner, a white man, puts into a sort of chant a piece of folk-love from African explanatory of the origin of pale-faced humans. Let the legend speak for itself: — "When God made Adam and Eve as well He made everybody dark and nobody pale." "Cain was a big man, blue-black Abel was a young man, yellow- dark." Then the story goes on:— "Now it came, one Sunday that the two dark boys Went to Halleujah for the Lord their God But Adam and Eve heard a different noise. They heard Cain cussing--cussing hard. Then came the fight and we are told that:— "Cain leaned over and picked up a showel. And swung it on Abel and smashed him dead. Then God curses Cain for the murder of Abel." Contrast this with the white man's version that God cursed Ham and he went black. Now for every Western Negro that supports the African theory you'll find five that still cling to the first impressions of a white environment. And by the same sign it depends in the last analysis on the African Negro to redeem the race. It is true that we have the advantage of technical knowledge in matters of material progress, but our racial soul has been damned by 350 years of absorbing alien culture. The same man that will indignantly protest against the suggestion that his color makes him inferior will plaster his pate with bone-marrow to reduce the natural kink of his hair, and amount his face nightly with peroxide creams to lighten his complexion. And if you discuss African nationalism with him he is liable to tell you that it is nothing but a pipe-dream, because "the powers have got a terrible gloom on Africa." The power of first impressions! Early training has associated in his mind invincible might with a pale face. Even the God he has been taught to worship looks more like Prince Edward than King Lobengula. And anybody who like myself has engaged in racial propaganda work will bear out that the hardest thing he has to combat is this obsession of the white man's invincible might. Invincible! Why, there are easily a dozen very probable happenings that could place the white man in Africa at the mercy of the native African. Nor is this all. Given the necessary organization and aid from us of a technical sort, and the fatherland can be won back to native dominance NOW. Of course, it will be won back in any event, but the task of the New Negro is to hasten that reclamation. And one of the surest ways of doing that is to see that your child gets his, or her first impression of matters racial from you and that the impression you give is promotive of Negro Nationalism. The other day I had a talk with a young father. He told me his wife and three children were in Jamaica, but that he expected his wife back in a few days. "And the kids?" I asked. "Aren't you bringing them back with the mother?" "No," he replied. "I go to see them and get acquainted with my wife's people and home (the young man hare never left the United States) in a year or so, but the children remain there until they grow up." Seeing my questioning look, he added: "I want them to grow up away from the blight of American color prejudice, grow up where men of color are of consequence. It will be a good example to their growing mind." I could have told him that senalia is. by no means void of color prejudice and that the miserable economic condition of the majority did not offset that of the more fortunate minority that were "men of consequence." But I did not, for I have seen some of the subjects of early covering—these poor children that suffered the milk of fear and grew physically but morally lean on the most of appreciation and repression. They have "blood for" things which even to look at made my blood hell. And while often railed, I have pitted because I knew I would have been the same kind of creature had I grown up in their environment. We expect all have the spirit of P. D. Douglas or R. J.

However, such as move on the part of France betrays idle real military situation in North, Africa; that the man whom they could not defeat with such an army they should try to capture by base treachery. It also proves the captainment I advanced in the early days of France's declaration of war against us that she would not fight a recording to modern methods of warfare and would resort, in sheer desperation, to a prize on the Riff leader's head, or to unfortunate punishments dropped in trivial villages when the French alphabets were not dropping bmbs on noncombatants. Rude Awakening Is Due But if France thinks that, thwarted in her attempt to subdue the Kliffs by force of arms, she can win the final victory by proclamations, encouragement of treachery, or the press, the French public are due to a rude awakening. "It must follow that when your army persists, in employing tactics abhorrent to civilian order, in order to safeguard your interests, you must retaliate, in some manner. So, though not as wealthy as France, I, too, have posted a prize of $5,000 upon the head of every American aviator brought to my headquarters, dead or alive. "I hear that six American aviators have joined the French aviation corps, and I have also learned from trustworthy sources that these boys made several attempts, but have not yet been able to leave the ground. I hope it is tried because as much as I am indignant with these children, I would not like to see their heads brought to me by my men. Francëla Credit As I have said, France is using the press as another weapon against us. Not that it matters much to us whether Europe or America, thinks we are wishing or losing, but it is vitally important 'to France to give the impression to the world that she is defeating my Rifflair; for France's finances are in a bad shape. Unleash the world believes that France eventually will conquer us, or do about to conquer us, her credit must go down, even below what it is today. On looking' over the clippings gathered for me from the press of the world, I notice that all messages ennate from four sources—Paris, Madrid, Tangier or Fee. Made-To-Order News South America, North America, and the European continent, are fed by messages, signal and unsigned, from correspondents, an army of whom, safely lodged in luxurious hotels, are reporting battle accounts under the guidance and protection of the French intelligence service. The names of towns, villages and hamlets in the Riff and surrounding country are unknown to the outside world, and discrepancies in the French reports can be obvious only to foreign scholars in America or Europe. So in the French dispatches, reporting French or Spanish "advances," I have noted many humorous and absolutely impossible accounts, showing that the French and Spanish intelligence services, who feed the foreign correspondents with information, are themselves ignorant of the topography of the country. "For they frequently report, as French and Spanish "advances" what, to any one who knows the Riff localities, obviously, is a "retreat." As the names of our towns and localities do not mean anything to the western or American mind, let me explain the result of the combined Franco-Spanish attack upon us: When France, about six months ago, began to make preparations to attack us, my troops took the initiative, descended down to the low country, and captured 85 French posts. The strategic reason for this initiative was two-fold: (a) The Riff country being dependent on the wheat and provisions raised in the low countries, nominally under France, we had to invade these territories and gather up the food supplies. 6. A. HAYNES (PITTSBURGH), J. A. CRAIGEN (DETROIT), F. A. TOOTE (PHILADELPHIA), AND WILLIAM WARE (CINCINNATI) Committee selected by Presidents of the U. N. L. A. at close of recent New York Conference to proceed to Atlanta Federal Prison and present various recommendations in regard to the Association and the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Co. to the Hon. Marcus Garvey, President-General. The Committee, with Mr. X. G. G. Thomas, acting managing editor of the Negro World, as Secretary, conferred with the great leader on October 28 and 29. otherwise it would have been impossible for us to carry on our Warfare against France and Spain. (b) We have always repaired our gun arm ammunition supply by seizing French and Spanish posts and denuding them of their arms. So in plain woods, the warfare carried on against us during the last five months or so has been in what might be termed French and Spanish territory. We captured these 55 posts and held on to them tenaciously until our labor brigade gathered up the harvest and sent the wheat, barley and cattle behind the lines. And as we have no object or intention of continuing the unequal warfare against the combined armies of France and Spain in the lowlands we are withdrawing, and will go still further into our mountain fastness, just as quickly as our men can send the body behind the lines. This is the extent of the French victories over the Rifles, so ghostingly reported in dispatches emanating from Paris, Madrid, Tamarier and Fee. But neither the French nor the Spanish sources dare to admit that in their battles to recapture these 55 posts in the lowlands they have paid heavy penalties before my men eventually executed these posts, for which we have no military use. Both France and Spain will pay still more dearly. 35,000 Prisoners Taken We have within our lines over 35,000 Franco-Spanish prisoners, and, in addition to the sources whereby we receive guns and ammunition, we have captured from the French and Spanish enough war material to continue to carry on our resistance at least another year. But within a few days mature will come to our assistance, the country will be floundering and the combined French and Spanish armies will find themselves in a precarious position. Against the Franco-Spanish army of at least 200,000 we have so far put on the field, in actual combat, no more than 20,000 Rifles and an equal number of Arab caviers. Another point the Franco-Spanish war dispatches feature daily is their aerial bombardment. My intelligence service reports that there are at least 55 to 100 French war planes engaged against us in dropping bombs upon our "cities". The Franco-Spanish reports give hard accounts of the have done to our "cities" and "towns", but when the western or the American mind realizes that our "cities" and "towns" are made up of mud huts and trifles they can judge for themselves to what extent these aerial attacks against us are liable to injure us. Of course, we have centers where multitudes gather at bazons, and our enemies never fail to utilize every opportunity to visit these bazars. Since France started hostilities against us they have succeeded in killing, according to the actual report made to me, 215 civilians, and if our enemies see any reason to be proud of such a record we will allow them to enjoy the consolation. In Retaliation Much against my wish, because my people, made such hard demands on me to retaliate, I reluctantly gave orders to distribute over the Riff country the French and Spanish war prisoners we had captured. So today, every "city," "town," "hamlet," group of mid-rifts or isolated text, has its quota of Spanish or French war prisoners. If the Franco-Spanish war phanes must insist on resorting continuously to this pastime, they will have the satisfaction of killing some of their own men in their attempt to kill Riffan non-combatants.

The South Will Demand Garvey's Release And I want to say to you that in my opinion and belief, if the white people in the South of this country realize that Marcus Garvey was standing not only for the salvation of his own race but for the salvation of the white race as well: if they realize that he had been railroaded into prison merely because he did not have a white face—if they realized what he stood for and what he meant, I believe that the South would rise in a map and demand that you grow leader he released and restored to you.

GOOD FOR EUROPE BUT NOT MOORS European Theory Seems to Preclude Liberty for Black and Brown By M. E. TRACEY In the Pittsburgh Press You don't help admonish Adolph E. Kram, even if he is brown and believer in Mohammad. No doubt, we white folks and Christians ought to be willing for his discontinuity, not if lending more substantial support. Still, his genius, though of the pagan brand, challenges our admiration. Somehow he seems to belong to the mountains he is defending, while our European brethren do not. Somehow he seems as though there ought to be a place for him and his somewhere on the earth. But that may be wrong. It certainly is wrong according to the theory of European statesmen. Their theory includes no such thing as liberty for the black and white races. Their strong is that the world belongs to those who can shoot farthest and fittest. Demanding self-determination for Ireland and fraternity of Austria, they cannot think of it for Africans. Solutions, for the rights of minorities in Turkey, they cannot conjure such institutions for heathen tribes. Abd-al-Krimei wants to rule by himself, wherefore he is personification grata. Such ambition must be grasped even if the warring does not frighten France in capacity to pay. So we behold Marshal Petain gone out to save democracy again, with all the instrumentalities of death he and his country can master. And we behold some brave American farming an army deponed to help him, which is horrible, perhaps, but nearly in line with the kind of neutrality George Washington taught. Looking over the map of Africa, one wonders how much more of it European nations want, and when they have gotten all they want, where the people of Africa will look for that tradition which we say is an immanent right. Supernatural justices European, perhaps, in lording it over their dark-stained cousins, yet that was the very doctrine that Europe denied when Germany pleaded it as her excuse to rule the roost. Discovered America A campaign rages in Paris to show that an Arab discovered America 400 years earlier than Columbus. And a fourth town is claiming the distinction of being the great Christopher's birthplace. This latest claim is the small Spanish Colonial community of Pontevedra. It is preparing to put up a monument commemorating itself as Columbus's home town, says the Detroit News. Pontevedra's action has exerted the rival Columbus birthplace, Cotton, Calyi Colos. None will admit the competency of the evidence on which the others base their claim, and all make light of Pontevedra. TO PARENT BODY AND ON last week) tennis, C.

It is the home and kind of parents that wield the greatest influence in shaping character, leaving the best first impressions. Lam always enrages in conversation with young boys of the white variety with a view to giving them fairer ideas on matters of race. They are good prospectors, because it has advantage over them of mature years and wider experience. Their self-importance is flattered, because to argue with a grown person gives them the status pro tem of grown-ups. They are in the formative stage, as they are of my own sex.

JOHNSON, 6217 Loomis You Should Burn Oriental Luck Incease In Your Home This incense was used in all places of worship in as many as 200 works with twelve, the zodiac of Human planets. A booklet inside the box will tell how powerful it is and made in Canaan, upper Egypt, the city of Jacob. ORIENTAL LUCK Incense OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey HAS THE NEGRO SERVED HIS PURPOSE IN AMERICA? THAT the Negro was brought to America against his, will is common knowledge; that he intends to remain in America is the determination of many; but under what conditions and to serve what purpose are questions that do not seem to be considered in the desire to stay. Negroes were enslaved and transported to America years ago for the purpose of doing the laborious work in building up the country. The country has been built up, the slaves have been freed, and for sixty years the presence of these ex-slaves here have created a problem, commonly called the race problem. Divers have been the solutions offered for the problem; but up to now no organized, legalized method has met the popular approval of both races. Some whites say, "Let the Negro remain here and gradually work out his salvation," yet secretly knowing that by economic pressure he may be exterminated in another century. Others say, "Let him go," yet they offer no recompense for his contribution to America, and no help to re-establish him in Africa. In brief, white America is heartless and cruel and, is not concerned about the fate of the Negro because he has already served the purpose for which he was brought here. Therefore the Negro's future rests in his own hands, and should be a matter of deep concern to him at this time, seeing he is no longer the ward of the nation. Some Negroes believe that by miscegenation he will be absorbed into the white race, and enjoy social equality with his firstwhile master. Others believe that it is a crime to mongrelize the race; and by active campaign and propaganda, are endervoring to get white America to realize its moral obligation to the Negro, and secure its aid in helping ambitious, industrious Negroes to return to their ancestral home and there establish a government of their own along modern lines based on their own racial culture. The advocate of this latter group is Marens Garvey, who has made a thorough study of the industrial, political and economic life of the Negro in America and is convinced that the Negro can rise no higher than his present status that of the underdog in the nation. His development is circumscribed by an overwhelming white majority, whose prejudices and intolerance increase daily. He cannot employ himself and is entirely dependent on the white man for work (which brings him bread and butter) and that work is of the most menial and for which he is underpaid. Even these jobs are being jeopardized with the introduction of labor saving devices. Where twelve Negroes were formerly employed to dig a ditch, now two white men can operate a machine that not only digs the ditch but shovels up the earth and puts same into a motor truck, in less than half the time. As the World's Work observes in its current issue, "In the decade following the Civil War there was one domestic servant for every forty people in the United States. In 1920 there was one domestic servant for every sixty people. Mechanical progress has made this reduction. In place of the work of a maid carrying, cleaning, and filling kerosene lamps there is the work of engineers and linemen supplying electricity. Food is prepared by manufacturers, so that the burden of cooking is lightened. Pipes carry water that servants used to carry. Vacuum cleaners help sweep. The telephone runs errands. By all these contrivances things are done which servants used to do, so that now servants are not only less in proportion than they used to be, but the life of those that remain is far less taxing." Electricity and motor-power are now doing the work of the Negro and it is imperative that he create his own jobs, or face unemployment and consequent starvation. The life of the black consumer is short unless he starts out immediately to produce those essentials of every day life, which will take him out of the servant class and at the same time ensure his livelihood; but the question of protection lies in the establishment of a government of his own in Africa, strong enough to protect him in any part of the world he may reside. Truly the Negro has served well the white man's purpose for bringing him to America; and the enlightened wide-awake Negro is now determined to serve his own purpose, that of living and enjoying life as any other man, without limitations and without barriers against his development and progress.

BRADHURST 484, EXT. 1-W Pinch of Salt in Water How a pinch of salt in the drinking water prevents the exhaustion of workers in hot coal mines and steel plants was told before the Institute of Mining Engineers in London by Sir Josiah Court recently. A similar discovery was made by Prof. Nevill Moss of the University of Birmingham. He found miners who encumbered rapidly when working in a temperature of about 100 degrees were able to endure it better when their drinking water contained even one-fifth of a per cent. of salt. Dr. J. B. S. Haldane, an English physiologist, explained that during work at a high temperature the body gives off much perspiration and with it a large amount of salt; to this depletion of salt the physical exhaustion is partly due. The addition of salt in those drinking water makes up for the loss. No Fraud Practiced on the Young Man, Who Has Lost Inheritance and Bride—Way of Mixed Marriages Young Leonard Kip Rhinlander, who is in suing Alice Beatrice Jones, of New Rochelle, for annulment of their marriage last fall, has been disheri-tered because of his marriage, former Justice Isaac N. Mills, his attorney, asserted before Justice Morschauer in the Supreme Court at White Plains. The attorney's reprimers were made during argument on a motion by Fredrick K. Close, of Clarke, Close & Davis, attorneys for the defendant wife, for $15,000 additional counsel fees. Close told the court that Rhinlander had a personal estate of, more than $300,000 and an income of from $15,000 to $30,000 a year. Mr. Milla declared, however, that the young man's own estate does not exceed $250,000, that he has an income of $16,000 a year, and that upon the death of his client's father young Rhinelandier would receive $300,000 over which his patent had no power of disposition. Justice Morschauser, after argument allowed $250 additional counsel fees to Mrs. Rhinelander's attorneys. He made the further provision that at the close of the trial an application for an extra allowance may be entertained. At one point in his argument Attorney Close for the defense said that the defense had a trunkful of documents to prove that no fraud had been committed, by Mrs. Rhinelandier. "So your defense is to be not that the defendant isn't of Negro blood," said Justice Morschauser, "but that the plaintiff knew it even before the marriage." "I am not saying that such is to be the defense," replied Mr. Clouse, "but I cannot, very well stop your Honor from drawing conclusions." The trial is scheduled to begin before Justice Morschauer November 2. THE CHILD'S TRAINING President Coolidge very recently, in his address to the delegates to the International Convention of the Y. M. C. A. of the United States and Canada, called the attention of the world to the fact that the home an not the State is responsible for the uprising of the child. We as a face group must pause awhile and give deep thought and consideration to our duty as parents to the rising generation. Especially those of us who live in the United States of America and in the large cities of this country. The majority of us are shaking our responsibilities and placing them upon the teachers in the public schools. We send our children to these schools, leaving almost their entire training, mentally, musically and physically, to the various teachers there, feeling that when we have given our children food, clothing and shelter—sending them to Sunday school and church occasionally—that we have done our whole duty and the State is responsible for the rest. The streets of every city and town and many villages are full of specimens of this neglect of home training. Many of these young people we come in contact with are graduates of high schools and colleges, but they are lacking in moral stamina and common positiveness. If we meet an exceptionally fine young man or young woman whose language is choice, whose manners are flawless and who is considerate of the rights of others, you will find that that young person's home training has not been neglected. A child is a sacred trust committed to the care of the parents. The molding and shaping of the child's character should begin in its myanney. The habits are formed and strengthened at an early age, and as the mind is developed and cultivated one parents should guide that mind with as much care and solicitude as you guide and support the first steps of the baby in its infantile efforts to walk. In tenderly caring for the child in every way until it reaches the age when it shall enter school; and then feeling that the responsibility is passed on to the teacher in a great mislake. With the proper home training the parents can make it much easier for the teacher. The hours out of school, the contact with other children both in and out of school must be carefully looked after, and as the child grows older the kind of books that the child reads; all these things have a great and wonderful influence upon the future life and usefulness of the child. The parenta duty does not come even when the child becomes a man or a woman, but rather increases as out of your greater experience you should advise your child what trade or profession or avocation in life to choose. Don't insist on his being a doctor, however, when all his inclination and talent make him destitute of being a carpenter. Don't insist when the girl goes a dressmaker when she has always wanted to be a trained nurse. Don't them to be that for which they are best fitted and that which they must dress to be. Then you shall have done your duty and, your whole duty, and the world will be better for your having become parental. MEETING. DISCUSSES An "overwhelming fear of Woman, deep in the soul of Man, makes him tracrically helpless and inadequate in the face of her growing power. So asserted Dr. Beatrice Hinkle, eminent psychanalyst, in "discussing "New Relations of Men and Women to the Family" at the first national conference on "modern parenthood which opened in the Hotel Waldort-Astoria under the auspices of the Child Study Association of America. More than 600 women and a few men, representing many States, attended the first session. The conference continued for a couple of days and was addressed by prominent educators and writers on the conclusions of present-day psychology in regard to child training. Speakers at Closing Banquet Dorothy Canfield, Fisher, the novelist, Angela Patri, author and educator; Miriam Van Waters, referee in the Juvenile Court, Los Angeles, whose book, "Youth in Conflict," has just caused a stir, and Dr. C. W. Klimins of London were the speakers at the closing banquet. An institute made up of conferences, lectures and demonstrations followed, the conference, lasting from October 22 to November 7 in association headquarters No. 51 West Seventy-fourth street. Dr. Hinkle, who is author of "The Recipient of the Individual," said men are in a panic because of women's struggle for greater freedom, and that the only solution many males could offer was "a frantic appeal to other men to bestir themselves and try to return to the good old days when man was, led and master and woman did his bidding humble and tremblingly. They seem to fail to see, she said, that the present condition is the direct outcome of masculine ways. Women themselves are in great conflict over the rival claims of virtue and family and have in no way found a solution of the problem, she added. A new relationship, based on frankness, is already in evidence between the sexes, Dr. Blake said, in that women who are not adapted to motherhood have dared yease to pretend devotion to the role. Also men are exhibiting greater inclination to claim family responsibility, she believes. "Psychological Weaning" For every mother comes the time when she must cause to call her son "precious lamb" in public and truck him in bed at night, emphatically stated for Leta S. Holtingsworth, assistant professor of education at Columbia University, who spoke on "Getting Away from the Family." "Psychological weaning," impoverly managed by parents, often causes serious cases of homokinness which may develop into lifelong misery and futility for children, she warned. She advised parents, mothers especially, early to cultivate interests other than their children. Believed of many former functions by the school, church and the like, the family can concentrate on more important responsibilities which no other institution can perform. said Dr. Ernest K. Groves, professor of social science at Boston University. It three-told obligation should be, he said, to direct activities of children, to stimulate them to realize their greatest possibilities and socially with fellowship. NEGRO WOMEN LOYAL TO AFRICAN NATIONALISM It is time to nature, although it be expressly learned, that a woman is both the morning and evening star to life. The light of her eye is always the first to rise and often the last to see upon man's day of trial. She wields a power more so far than syllabisms in arguments or counts of last appeal in authority. The woman can take man's whole nature under her control. She becomes what she has been called, "the divinity of infancy." Her smile is its sunshine her word its midst law, until sin and the world have hardened the heart. Thus it is its virtues particularly developed in the women of the U. N. I. A. make them a power for good and prepare them to carry out the principles of this grand organization and to uphold the hands of our great leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey. In spite of obstacles, and treachery which are operated daily by wicked and malicious men of our race to overthrow the great work that has been already accomplished by our leader, we women are determined to see that the names of such individuals be recorded in history that posterity shall read and be able to deal accordingly with the descendants of such men, even unto the third and fourth generation. It is our duty to demand of our men sincerity and loyalty to such a grand and noble cause, and to stand loyalty, by men of our race who believe in the elevation of their women and the general uplift of the race through the establishment of a government in our motherland, Africa.

The better our control of self, the higher will be the type of civilization. That our civilization is in a shaky condition today is due to the fact that we are largely slaves to our baser selves, and our baser selves are mastered by trivialities. Think of the most important things that rule the world at this moment—jazz, cheap movies, illustrated newspapers, daring, jewels, clothes, automobiles, liquor, tobacco, rich foods, games, racing, gambling, political power—what are they all but gimberacks as compared with the great realities of life? One does not contain them wholly; a doth of this, that and the other among them adds spice, variety and color to our existence; but there are too many people whose lives are wholly engrossed with one or all of them. Alvin F. Harlow. Imperialism Digging There is every reason to believe that the Biffians will succeed in defeating the French Imperials. They have already reduced the Spanish army to a demoralized hostle. The French have trouble in Syria besides hating them hands-full, with debt questions and other embarrassments. Though Britain does not like to see the prestige of imperialism go down in Africa, her quarrel with France is no bitter that she secretly hopes to see Abdul-Kerim victorious though the French defeat may impulse her own subject peoples in the East to revolt. This is only one example of how imperialism is helping to ruin its own graves: Dally Walker. Do Bankers Sympathize? Do you realize that temporary obligations running up into the millions are created by overcharges by the drawn against uncollected funds by items such as post-dated checks and stop-payments, through blenders made by thoughtless depositors who expect the banker to pay the bills? Is the banker's attitude toward his customers blenders more safe than human? Is he more conservative and unfitting than he is sympathetic? More solitary than he is altruistic? All these questions surround the process of building and cause one to wonder whether human relationships are essentially any different in banking than in any other line of business activity. Mabba D.

The first thing necessary at such time is to avoid all highly seasoned and rich food, also strung tea and coffee. Eat light and simple sippers at 5 o'clock and no later than 8. The juice of lemons reduced with water will sometimes prove very effectual, or a little powdered magnolia at bedtime, taken in a little milk, will often give almost permanent relief. Avoid coats or any other pressure upon the stomach; all garments must be worn loose. In many cases this will present all stomach disturbances. Try nature's medicines. Now, Nature's medicines are exercise in the open air, occupation and household duties. At the same time do not overwork yourself, for children born of overworked mothers are liable to be dwarfed and pumy. At heart it is certain that the expectant mother should not be foolishly idle and, on the other hand, it is equally certain that they should be relieved from laborious occupations that exhaust and unduil them for easy delivery. Please and useful physical and intellectual occupation, however, will not only do no harm, but positive good. Sleeplessness is most likely to be caused by incorrect living, and to be prevented and curbed by the opposite. A glass or two of cold water dripped slowly on going to bed often helps one to go to sleep; so does bathing the face and hands and feet, or the topid bath on going to bed, and gentle precession given by an attendant with palms of the hand over the back for a few minutes on getting. To peace sound sleep do not read, write or severely tax the mind in the evening. The Unterrified Bangs In these "victorious" james it is interested to quote a few lines by John Kenfroth Bong.

Birth Control, Called Crime Characterizing the *propaganda* for birth control "a crime against womanhood," Dr. Eliza M. Mosher, oldest practising woman physician in the United States, urged women members of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce to "raise your hand against it; stamp out this vicious thing." Dr. Mosher was one of nine speakers at an all-woman dinner, at the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce held (and celebrate the achievements of Brooklyn women in professions and industry. "This vicious propaganda for birth control is doing innumerable harm to the young women of this country," Dr. Mosher declared. "It is running the lives of women who should be mothers, and who will wake up too late to realize that they have lost their most precious heritage." "There, can be no excuse for this birth control propaganda. Those who, perhaps, should have this information will never get it, and those who get it are the ones who shouldn't have it." Dr. Mosher's vigorous denunciation met with scattered applause among the 500 women at the dinner. No more man was allowed in the dining room with the exception of Ralph Jones, president of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, who was permitted a few moments to welcome the women. The nine addresses by women who have been unusually successful in quite outstanding fields of achievement dealt with the new opportunities for women in each of these lines, and the obstacles to be overcome if women are to compete successfully with men. The Value of Mother's Care A big majority of the world's greatest and most useful man have been poor boys, who in their youth lacked special training and broad opportunities.

President Virgin Islands Congressional Council Eight years, and a half have passed since the Congress of the United States passed a temporary measure providing for the government of the newly acquired, Danish Islands of St. Croix, St. Thomas and St. John's, until such time as it could deal with the subject in a manner more befitting its own dignity and the public welfare of their inhabitants. Under that legislation, ad interim, the governmental machinery of the islands was put into the hands of the Navy Department, and a long string of naval officers have succeeded each other in the governor's chair.

Syracuse, N. Y. Mr. Jackson is responsible, above all statement. its letter head designated it quite frankly, down to a recent period, as the "naval government of the Virgin Islands" of the United States." And even the very recently issued "Geographical Dictionary" issued by the United States department of Commerce so describes it. Yet the officials of the Navy department, from the Secretary down to the petty pushers on the Islands, gratefully and disingenuously declaring that there is no such thing as a naval government in the Virgin Islands. The reason for this ostrich-like pretense is to be found in the fact that the people of the Virgin Islands white and black alike, dislike the naval regime which has introduced American race prejudice in the islands in its most brutal and cynical form, excluding men from twentieths of its population of voting age from the exercise of the suffrage under the absurd pretence of enforcing a Danish law which law specifically provided that it should be abrogated in 1917—the very year when the navy took over the administration of the islands. Freemen Rights Outraged Under the naval officials, the most elementary rights of freedom in a democracy, have been outraged and trampled upon. Editors have been outraged and trampled as in alipop Hatti for simply defying that there was no civil government in the islands and for mildly suggesting that a brutal police officer who had relentlessly assaulted a boy should suffer the legal penalties for his cowardly crime. In some of the deportations the Naval Proviso Marshal's court has exercised criminal jurisdiction despite the continued declarations of the naval regime that there is no "naval regime." In the meanwhile, the people of the Virgin Islands are told by the State Department that they are not citizens of the United States although their sons were conscripted into the army and navy in war time and their property (taxes) In peace time, just as though they were citizens. And certain carefully selected portions of the Constitution and Laws of the United States, like the 18th Amendment, the Volunteer Act and the Tariff Laws, are construed as applying to them. Islands Economically Ruined. Economically the islands have been wrecked and ruined of set purpose. Neglected and impoverished with a killing drought which lasted for three years, with wages down to thirty cents per day and a working population Fleeing from them as the Irish did from Ireland after the famine of '48, a tax was clamped on their land which in five times as high as the land tax of prosperous Porto Rico. When the outraged citizenry (those who had the vote) elected to the Colonial Council in M.L. Croix natives who were pledged to undertake such limited reforms as were feasible, under their curiously curtailed legislative rights, the naval governor attempted to, foist upon the Council, as members, to carry out his autocratic will, foreigners who were neither natives of the islands nor citizens of the United States. To the Council's refusal to admit these aliens as members of the law-making body the governor replied by dissolving that body. SHAME OF FRENCH DEEDS IN SYRIA EXPOSED TO VIEW Record of Six Years in Syria Unparalleled in Broken Pledges and Dogged Brutality—Enforcing the Rule of Might BLO Is your system run in your blunder, like if your BOX-MARIE and are you suffer WEAKNESS NERVOUSNESS ANEMIA TIRED FEELI NEURALGIA Are you losing WEIG The Virgin Islanders in consequence demand the abolition of this Naval government of a tropical dependency and venture to point out to Congress the duty consistent with its own dignity, urging the fact, that when the present organic act under which the Navy rules in the islands was specifically stunted, by the Congress, to be a temporary make-shift that body bound itself implicitly and explicitly to take up the deferred task of legislation for the islands and providing them with that "republican form of government" which the Constitution declares, that every inch of the United States is entitled to. That, of course, will put an end to the present privileged position of Naval officials in the islands and the social, political and economic abuses which flow from that fact. And that is the reason why the personnel of the Naval regime insists that it doesn't exist. In a recent issue of the "Baltimore Sun," Mr. George Washington Williams, a Naval official whose proprietor gistd order has not been shated one bit by his elevation to the highest judicial office in the Islands, goes on like "Little Tommy Tucker" to sims for his supper and ascribes all those Virgin Islanders who went to be "free under the American flag as 'socialists, communists, and parlor bolsheviks.' In fact, he calls them everything but children of God. Well, that is perfectly natural, but one might suggest to Mr. Williams" superiors, that in the interest of their own reputation they should curb the exuberance of his pen for it will damage the credit abroad one of the Navy Department alone, but of the entire American people if it should come to be understood that those who desire that the Constitution of the United States should be applied to them in its entirety are in any sense undesirable human materials for incorporation into the American Commonwealth. Virgin Islanders must respectfully refuse to accept Mr. Williams's queer exegesis gloss upon American democracy as the true Simon-Pure authorized version of the same. There is a source-linked, two sources of "interpretation higher up the stream, to wit, the Congress and the people of the United States." And to them we confidently appeal in the interest of fair play, decency, and democracy to rid the people of the horrors of this Naval government which is and isn't at one and the same time. SHAME OF FRENCH DEEDS IN SYRIA EXPOSED TO VIEW (Editorial in the New York World) THE WHITE MAN'S BURDEN IN DAMASCUS France went into Syria six years ago despite a solemn promise to stay out, despite the bitter protest of the Syrian people against any form of French control whatever, and despite specific and official warnings of such a catastrophe has now had waste a large part of a great city and destroyed at least a thousand lives. There can be no possible doubt on any of these points. They are written in the record. First, the question of French promises: France and Britain, fighting a losing war against the Turks in Western Asia and desperately hard press for allies sought to bring the native populations of Syria, Palestine and Mesopotamia into the war upon the Allies' side. To do this, they promised these native populations independence. It was a written promise and it read as follows: "The aim which France and Great Britain have in view in proclaiming in the East the war let loose by German ambition is the complete and final liberation of the peoples so long oppressed by the Turks and the establishment of National Governments and Administrations deriving their authority from the initiative and free choice of the native populations. As if "National Government" and "free choice" were not sufficiently definite terms, this statement of aims went on to say: "In order to give effect to these intentions, France and Great Britain have agreed to encourage and assist the establishment of National Governments and Administrations in Syria and Mesopotamia and in the territories which they are proceeding to liberate, and they have agreed to rename such Governments as soon as they are effectively established." Despite these explicit promises, a French army marched to Damascus within four months of the formation of the first Syrian Government and destroyed it. Second, the question of Syrian opposition to French control: The Syrian congress which met at Damascus within a few months after the end of the war was as official and as representative as any Government in any of the new states made by the war. It was elected by those electors chosen by the Syrians themselves in the old days of Turkish rule as their representatives in the Turkish Parliament. This congress not only affirmed the independence of Syria; it is believed that it had reason to fear French imperialism masked in the proposal for a "mandate," and to its declarations of July 2, 1913, it attached this manifesto: "We do not acknowledge any right claimed by the French Government in any part whatever of our Syrian country, and refuse that she should assist or have a hand in our country under any circumstances or in any place. Nevertheless, despite this manifesto and despite French promises to consult the "free choice of the native populations" France moved into Syria. Third, the question of a specific and official warning: The Crane-King commission was an official commission sent to the Near East at the time of the Peace-Conference and with the indorsement of the Peace-Conference. The Crane-King commission made an independent poll of Syrian sentiment and invited expressions of Syrian opinion. It re- Pretty NEGRO Dolls They Walk, Talk, Sleep and Cry THIS IS THE IMPROVING AGE.

Order the WEAKNESS NERVOUSNESS ANEMIA TIRED FEELING NEURALGIA ported to the Peace Conference that it found "practical unanimity for the independence of a united Syria;" but assuming that the powers were not yet ready to grant self-government to Syria, it went on to poll the Syrians for a preference of mandatory nations. Not one Syrian in six. It found, was in favor of a French mandate (the actual percentage it estimated at 14.65, based on the petitions it received). On the contrary, more than 60 per cent of the Syrians polled had taken special palms "directly and strongly to protest against any French mandate." This situation, the commission felt, made it impossible to recommend France as a mandatory power. There followed, then, this warning: The feeling of the Arabs of the East is particularly strong against the French. And there is grave reason to believe that the attempt to enforce a French mandate would precipitate war between the Arabs and the French. The French moved into Syria. Who have they done since? They have ought to stay there. They could not establish their first Governor General in Damascus without fighting their way to that city. This was in July, 1920. Gen. Gouard's first official act was to fine his capital city 10,000,000 frames. It was a significant inauguration of the French regime. Since then there have followed successively a native uprising in March 1921; a native appeal to the League of Nations in August, 1921; jioting in Damascus in April, 1922; with lives lost and martial law proclaimed; another, Syrian appeal to the League in May, 1922; a new war in August, 1922; with more troops dispatched from France; another appeal to the powers in November, 1922; heavy French reinforcements sent to Syria in April, 1923; boycott of French elections by the Syrians in September, 1923; a new war again in April, 1924; riots in Damascus in April, 1925; another war begun in August, 1925, with French planes bombing native villages; "mortal law for fifteen years" proclaimed by the French in October, 1925; oppressive measures increasing, severe and following one another in a hopeless circle; casualties gradually mounting to 6,626 on the French side and nobody knows how many on the Arab side; and now this "parade of corpses" Through Damascus — dead Arabs strapped to capitals — followed by fresh uprising, a cordon drawn around a rebellious quartet, guns turned loose and disaster on a major scale. The record of these six years in Syria is a record first of broken pledges, then of utter heedlessness to warnings and finally of disaster. No other series of events in our own time has done so much to widen the breach between East and West and to display so much dogged brality, for so little gain. POTATOES AT WAR PRICE CROP SHORTAGE IN PRODUCING STATES ENRICHES SUC- CESSFUL GROWERS CHICAGO, Oct. 28 (A. P.)—Potato prices were about even with war-time levels, according in a report today by the United States Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Latest shipping point quotations, throughout the chief production States are $2.30 to $3.10 a hundred pounds, wholesale, as against $5c, to $5c, a year ago. Growers who have a fair sized crop are congratulating themselves and many an old debt is being paid with the money received from potatoes. Crop shortage is back of the price advance, which has been accelerated the week by wintry conditions North and by sudden falling off in the volume of shipments to distributing centres.

PLEASE STATE NOW MARY TREATMENTS YOU WANT* AFRICAN CONVERTS START NEW MISSION SEND NATIVE PREACHER INTO THE JUNGLE The Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Church, located at 156 Fifth Avenue, has just been informed of a self-help policy inaugurated by some of their African native converts. These African Christians have raised a sum of money sufficient to cover the expenses of sending one of their own pasiors to a distant outpost in a section of Angola, where the church is not at present working. They propose to continue to help send out other home missionaries in years to come. "People are coming to us from long distances—attendees for teachers and pastors," says Mrs. R. B.

"This last week two men came a distance of forty miles with the news that 130 of their fellows had given up their idols and want some one there to teach them. They say that if the present location of their village does not suit the missionaries they will indicate another to which they will move.

Explorers Report Rich Find in South Africa JOHANNESBURG. Oct. 24.—Back from an expedition to the dried-up lake region of the Kalahari desert, Professor Schwartz states that he discovered towns hitherto unknown to the world and stretches of fertile land. The ethnological museum, which made a reconnaissance along the Zambesi to where it joins the great Ngami depression, states that the "dried-up Lake Ngami is a vast expanse of grass containing countless herds of cattle. The expedition followed the Bothell river for 200 miles in dugouts. The dwest is dying and is being replaced by thorn trees. Along the banks the predominating people are the Makalakas, a big nation which is not African, but probably a branch of the Madagascar Sakalayas. These other towns possess innumerable towns and villages and vast maize fields. There are important towns of which no one has heard. One formerly was the port, of entry to Ngamiland, from which big barges once piled to the dried-up Lake of Ngami. American Indians Increase; Total Now 349.595 WASHINGTON, Oct. 28—A census of the Indian population of the United States, not including Alaska, announced by the Census Bureau today, shows that the number of Indians is increasing. The total number on June 30, 1925, the census date, was 139,595, a gain of 2,663 since June 30, 1924, and a gain of 18,076 in the last twelve years. Oklahoma, comprising the former Indian Territory, still has the largest Indian population, with 120,163; Arizona is next, with 43,950. New York's Indian population on June 30 last was 6,135. Formaldehyde perm Killer Formaldehyde gas, used in fumigation, is highly efficient against baccalcus, but does not kill animal vermilion. Despite repeated judicial decisions against face-segregation laws, the Court to continue Negroes within fixed-residential limits as continually cropping in our cities. Of late it has had to take legacies forms. There pending before the Federal Supreme Court a suit to determine whether on expedient segregation by a property owner's agreement—can be enforced at law. The case is brought by thirty Washington taxpayers who are trying to restrain a neighbor on S Streets from breaking her pledge by selling to a Negro woman. Upon the court's decision depends the fate of similar cases which have taken in St. Louis, Los Angeles and other cities. Whatever the legal nineties of the issue, the social impolity of permitting property owners to make the court enforce an agreement not to sell to a particular race is clear. Such agreements might easily become so general in many locations as to restrain seriously the right of acquiring property. Written into books descending from buyer to buyer, they might be enforced against German or Italian, Jew or Gentile, Catholic or Protestant, and might affect every kind of reality. It is plain that their operation must conflict with the whole spirit of American institutions and society. The consequences of race segregation are evident to any one who looks into the history of the Irish "pale" or the Jewish Ghetto. It was hoped that the Supreme Court decision in the Louville, case in 1847 had put an end to the more flairant attempts of this sort; we cannot afford to let the spirit of that decision be violated. Bird Enters Crocodile's Mouth to Clean Teeth E. P. James of Wembley, England, writing to the London Mail, says that birds that protect animals are common in South Africa, and adds: "But only one bird performs the duty for each animal. The crocodile has a bird which enters its mouth to clean the teeth of the brute. Another bird acts as sentry to the rhinoceros and warns it by creeping in the creature's ear of the approach of an enemy. I myself have witnessed these things in South Africa." Spanish Section SECCIÓN EN ESPAÑOL vor La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra 54-56 Oeste, Calle 135, Ciudad de Nueva York, N. Y. PROP. M. A. PIJUEROA, Editor Parece fracasada la tentativa de M. Calillaus, el sensacional exministro de Hacienda de Francia, de concertar las realidades económicas y financiers de la situación de su país, con la concepción deliberadamente falsa formada alli, entre el pueblo, por los políticos, acerca del problemas más urgente que gravita hoy sobre la nación. Un gran leader reducido a encarcelamiento; un país de la raza vendido al hombre blanco; pero nuestra causa emancipadora ha de triunfar—Apelando a nuestro elemento universalmente para soporte del gran ideal—Todo no se ha perdido aun-en la república de liberia; su pueblo dejará escuchar su voz El gabinete Painlevé al caer, cualquiera que sea la solución que se dea a la crisis, ahre una nueva brecha en la confianza universal en el crédito francés. La enorme publicidad dada en todo el mundo al prestigio financiero de M. Caillaux, y la fe ciega depositada por su pueblo en su gestión, llevaron a todas partes la esperanza de que el conseguiria imponer la razón en la conducción de los negocios financieros de la república. Lamento ser simplemente un observador cuando acontecimientos de gran signiftección y posibilidades se presentan; sinembargo, he de hacer todo cuanto pueda para indicar el derrotero donde nuestro verdadero interes descansa. La era de redención se aproxima; sus indicios se notan por doquiera y todo cuanto es necesario de nuestra parte es prudencia, paciencia y perseverancia. Reduzcase a prisión a quinientos Garveys y nuestra causa permacera intacta; nuestro esfuerzo no ha de perder un sólo átomo de su efectividad. Hacerlo significaría, ante todo, aborda fria, desmida, bruialmente, la tremenda situación en que el tesoro francés se halla. Todo el sistema económico, francés de la post guerra ha sido viciado. Se ha basado en dos esejismos absurdos: uno, el pago por Alemania de cantidades fantásticas, suficientes a contrabalancear y superar los gastos ingentes hechos para la restauración de los departamentos devastados y para sostener los armamentos actuales; otro, la cancelación de la deuda norteamericana, base del reajuste o cancelación total de las deudas intercaladas. Me preocupa un tanto la actitud de dar a veces la apariencia de subordinación a nuestro objeto principal por causas tribiales. Discútase en nuestras divisiones, debátase en nuestros meetings, pero siempre retengamos en mentis que la causa que defendemos debe ser invulnerable. Ella necesita nuestra más ferviente cooperación; el Africa reclama a sus hijos con todo el buen deseo, por cuya razón no debemos permitir que pequeñas diferencias entre nuestras filas, impidan la ejecución de nuestro asiduos esfuerzos. En esta peligrosa ilusión, los políticos puñero; y el pueblo después, han llegado a la ciega suposición de que el norme délicit que iba aguilaránlose de año en año podra zanjarse fácilmente una vez realizado el prodigio esperado. . . . La realidad, con todo, es muy otra y esta impiñiódose con creciente firmeza a las más habiles maniobras y los más patrióticos esfuerzos de los inmanceros francés. Uno de los puntos que más esencialmente debe ocupar la mente de nuestra raza y de los miembros de esta organización en particular, son los recientes acontecimientos en la república de Liberia. Las actuaciones del pequeño grupo en el poder de dicha república, han resultado vindicadoras para nuestro movimiento. Ellos consideraron nuestros esfuerzos para el establecimiento del negro procedente de este hemisferio en la costa occidental de Africa, un sueño irrealizable; pero a esta hora deben estar convencidos del gran error en que incurrieron. Hay que pagar. Hay que hacer frete a los vencimientos del tesoro con recursos propios, con sacrificios del pueblo. Los que han convencido a este de que ello puede hacerse sin nuevas contribuciones, sin someterse a una tremenda carga trilateral, como por ejemplo, la que Inglaterranea seportaudo hace más un año para cumplir con su compromiso, tienen ahora el durísimo delder de desgracharle. Y eso, que no es grato ni ventajoso para los políticos, es una cosa esencial para el "business-sian" que haya de arreglar el conflicto algn día. El hombre blanco, el blanco norteamericano, pronto establecerá en Liberia. El entrará en competencia con Europa por la riqueza del continente africano, y la producción, de la goma no sera el objeto principal. Todo cuanto sea considerado de valor bajo aquel suelo será posesión de Firestone y sus ascuaces. Por medio del control en la vida commercial y económica del país; el hombre blanco se colocará en posición tal que impedirá al negro el ir muy lejos en el camino de su nacionalidad. Lo que el patriota filipino combatió, ha sido aceptado por King y Compañía. Aquel pudo ver que si permitía a este país o a sus subditos interesarse en sus campos productivos, la independencia de las Filipinas seria imposible. La misma consideración no fue tomada por los que rigen los destinos de Liberia; pere lo voz de su pueblo ha de ser aun escuchada. El gobierno de los asuntos del país por políticos profesionales tiene sus limitaciones. Francia se ha alora ahora ante un problema que sólo la pericia y la preparación de los financieros, de los hombres de negocios, de los verfaderos economistas practicé, puede resolver. Toda intervención que se le de en su gestión a la política, lo complacaría y dificultaría. Es el momento de decir al pueblo cosas duras y de pedirle sacrificios. Y los políticos no encontrarán eso grato ni ventajos para sus calculos. Pero la realidad se impone sin contemplaciones. — La Prensa, N. Y. La corporación financiera en referencia ha ganado su segunda victoria. Haciendo uso de su capjtal y del poder del gobierno, destruyó los planes de nuestra organización en aquella república y contribuyó a mi encarcelamiento en este país. Aquello que perseguíamos para nuestro elemento en su propio país, ha sido arrebatado por el blanco debido ello a la perspicacia de esa corporación y a la malicia de los enemigos de nuestra movimiento de emancipación. Estos elementos de la raza prefieren ver a su propio hermano en el purgatorio a verle en posesión de su propio país y disfrutando de todos sus derechos. Tarde o temprano el espíritu del remordimiento ha de posesionarse de ellos; toda vez que prestan su ayuda para traicionar a su propia raza. Apoyo a una aspiración Españoles e hispanoamericanos redacían en Madrid un mensaje para presentarlo al pueblo filipino, como expresión de simpátia y apoyo a sus aspiraciones de independencia. Les declara capacitados para el gobierno propio; pide apoyo para sus nobles deseos de libertad; dice que es reclamación franca, justa y respetuosa para la gran dación que rige sus destinos, que guarda gran fongo moral de extraordinaria atracción hecha los puebios que habían nuestro idioma. Todas estas artimanas son prueba más que convincente para realizar quienes son nuestros peores enemigos. Hemos tenido que pagar muy alto precio por la experiencia obtenida; sinembargo, no debemos demayar un sólo instante, no debemos perder nuestras esperanzas en la realización de la aspiracion de nuestro pueblo. Bienaventurados los que sufren con paciencia . . . La masa de aquel pueblo no ha tenido aun la oportunidad de sentir la influencia extranjera; cuando ella ejerza su presion sobre la clase productora de aquel país, el grupo explorador tendrá que elevar su ancla o disponerse a sufrir las consecuencias. Me abriga la esperanza de que el pueblo blanco liberal, tanto de Europa, como de America que ama a su patria, conceda al negro el mismo derecho de amar a la suya. Hora es va para que los poderes predominantes supriman la influencia del capital para someter a servidumbre a los pueblos débiles, perturbándose de ese modo la paz que despira debiera reinar en el seno de la gran familia humana. Tengo el honor de ser vuestro obediente servidor España, dice además el mensaje, no puede olvidarse. con su silencio de la que continua llamandose hija suya por, tradición y-cultura. Sus redactores confian en que el progresivo, potente y democrata pueblo norteamericano, el cual tan ferviente culto rinde a la libertad, cumplir lalemente la humanitaria promesa de conceder lo tan anhelado para el pueblo del archipielago.

Se invita expresamente al rector, profesorado y estudiantes de la Universidad de Filipinas a nombrar representantes para la asociación universitaria hipóamericana, con el objeto de dar mayor significación a sus deseos.

Abd-el-Krim y su ejército Comentando la situación en Marruecos, *El Liberal* de Madrid observes que el Macizo de Senada y el Monte Mesaud constituyen actualmente la preocupación del alto mando francés. La presencia de reconcentraciones rebeldes en dichos sectores, ha causado inquietud entre las cabilas adictas a los franceses, retardando e impidiendo la sumisión de aquellas todavía disidentes. La capital del protectorado francés se encuentra, según informes, fuera de peligro, pero el rescuecimiento de la rebeldia en el sector del centro obligaria a los franceses a retirar algunas de sus tropas, que cumplen importantes cometidos en las regiones extremas de la línea. Informaciones de la prensa parisiense manifiestan que Abd-El-Krim dispone al presente de diez y ocho mil riffeinos, veinte mil gherreros de Gomara y Yebala de otros veinte mil, número a que puede montar los miembros de las otras tribus adheridas a su causa. Las tablas de la ley Debido al esfuerzo, paciencia y diligencia de un sabio epitoLOGO aleman, aseverase que la existencia de Moises, el gran legislador hebreo, es un hecho establecido y que, según todas las apariencias, el origen histórico de los diez mandamientos es cosa determinada. El profesor Grimmue, que es el erudito del caso, ha logrado describir las lapida shebricas que el arqueologo inglés Flinders Petri en contrato en la Mouche Sinai en 1905. Declara Grimmue que el conunto de las lapidas describidas por el consiste en las gracias de Moises a la princesa hija del Faraón por la haberle rescatado de las aguas del Nilo. Esto, de ser cierto, acarlaria mucho del misterio en que muchos han considerado envuelta la vida de Moises. - Muchos eruditos alemanes conceden suma importancia a la obra realizada por Grimmie. Hacen notar que si Grimmie ha descubierto la clavel del idioma que las lapidas y las ha relacionado con Moises, esto evidentemente, dispiña la dudas que han rodeado el origen historico del Decalogo. Los caracteres estampados en las lapidas halladas por Petri asemejabanisce intimamente al hebreo de la Bible, y serían clara indicio de que el Decalogo fueco al de Moises. Los sabios, sin embargo, convienen en que la clíninación de estas dudas hace necesario más estudio de las lapitudes del Sinfer. Como resultado del annuicio de Grimm se ha propuesto una expedición al Sinai, y hallándose este territorio biblico bajo el dominio inglés, no se espera que Gran Bretaña ponga obstáculos a semejante expedicion.

This change from the temperature that had ruined at the time of our starting (not more than four hours before!) to what we were now experiencing, was like being thrust into the heart of winter, after a fervid summer! I felt sorry for the boys; and I saw that poor Hardacre's baggage was all awash. As Comersall had predicted, we passed through the tornado inside half an hour. A drizzling rain fell still, but we were able to alight from the loopy, and to look about us. What a scene of desolation met our gaze! Water streamed from every leaf and stem; and the ground was a river in miniature, into which a hundred channels converged from the fields on either side. An oozy sound, sibilant and soilden, filled the silence; and no living creature could be seen anywhere. If naturopath had gone back to the period when land and water were one and the same element, the earth could not have looked more/depressing! The light was that of a late English glaming in early winter—one could have thought that the sun had been washed away. Yet even while we lingered there was a change—a vertible transformation scene: The rain ceased. The sun came out. Nature took back her colors, and with a rarely intensified power. "Look," I cried, "how deliciously green and fresh and height everything is now!" Into our posnirs poured the fragrance of a refreshed soil. A noisy crowd of brightly-plumaged birds seemed to spring from nowhere. Aerosols the road, sailing higher and ever higher, passed a flag of wild parrots. They cried raptively, and withal joyously, as they disappeared from view. Then a still more vivid splash of color was added to the picture. On a branch of acacia about thirty feet away had settled one glorious kinnessher. I remembered then with a deep penchant a remark of that great naturalist. Hudson—"Could we but reach the godlike calm and contour of the birds, man's life might be made perfect?" 1 Courier: Oh, the dazzling history of that kingfisher's blue, and gold plumage, as it glittered in the newly awakened sun. He was like a living jewel. Even as we watched, he started away, and we saw him sweep along the course of the road, toward where we knew the Orlo creek must have first emerged from its stream-ambient hills. All that we had time to see of the last-named town was a series of well-trigged lawns, that might well have graced a country-house in England. They were studded with brightly painted bungalows, and in the distance a stone tomb a tiny Mission School. Children were playing in the fields. Their treasured vines rang on the purified air like a pool of silver bells. Our course was a semicircle, because we were still stepping around that disastrously hidden bridge at Emilia. A hundred miles now lay behind us and our stopping place for lunch lay just ahead. We came upon the ancient seat of the provincial government just as our watchers pointed to halt-past one. "Excellent!" promised Gomersall. "There is plenty of time for a snack and a wash-up. We will all be the better for a chance of clothes. Let us allow the boys half an hour in which to obtain water, and to refill the tanks. Meanwhile, I will ask the Rest House steward to look after making a fire. We have not more than seventy or eighty miles to go for the second half of our journey. We should reach Blake toward dusk, have another cup of tea there, and then speed up every ounce of power we can from the cinnies, to put Hardacre aboard the Oshogbo in time for dinner." "Suppose the captain should refuse us hospitality?" I asked. "After all you and I are, only birds of passage. Hardacre, alone, as a passenger has the right to demand a cabl." "Oh, then we will sleep on the wharf," decided our driver airily. "We have two camp-beds at least, and not even the police dare stop us from camping-out, if we have no roof over us." The Rest House proved to be a mat-roofed structure, built of clay and wattles. All the interior rooms were locked. The government steward reported that the D. O. was out of town and the keys in his private safe. But as our visit was to be of the briefest duration, there was no occasion for complaint. We soon found a crude form, fashioned of oroko wood, that would serve as table. In one corner of the veranda stood a huge pile of sun-baked clay blocks. I thought of that famous Oxford line, "a rose-red city, half as old as Time," remarking to my companions how wonderful a feature of nature it is that material of the most suitable kind is always provided on the spot. Why import bricks, tiles, or any kind of stone, when the indestructible ant, labor, night and day to convert the soil into a rich red clay that is unmatched for durability, and usefulness? While the boys were busy outdoors, and about the kitchen, we opened our lift-bags, and had a rebenishing dry shampoo. Our clean garments were gloriously fresh to the skin. We felt like new men, when at last we put down our primitive board.

While rooting around for something clean to sit upon, apart from the dapp blocks, Hardacre had discovered a weird old chair, carved from the trunk of a small cotton-tree. There were rudimentary arms, and a very comfortable seat. Despite its bulk, the whole contraption weighed so little that our friend brought it beneath one arm to the corner where our repast was waiting. "Something like a portable chair, this," he chortled. "The sort of article a child could carry about. I have always believed that the beds in Judea were made of bamboo—the same light structure that the African uses here. When Jesus told the sick man to take up his bed and walk, he was giving a command that required only moderately healthy limbs to obey." "Quite so," I agreed. "That chair of yours reminds me of Muriel Stuart's lines: - The coal that knew the flood; the chair - Remembering when it was a tree: - I dare awake your treasure-trove was merely in its infancy when it was modified into a chair. Yet its life in the present form may be as long as it had remained in the forest. Cottonwood is practically indestructible except by fire." (To be Continued Next Week) Fifty-four Egyptians Killed When Police Cause Panic LONDON, Oct. 25. Fifty-four persons were jailed and forty-three imaged at Tanta, Egypt, where a great religious fate was being held, attended by about 1,000,000 persons, when mounted police created a panic in their attempt to clear a passageway for the automobile of the minister of religious foundations. The natives thinking that the mounted police had come to break up the religious demonstration as is often the case, were thrown into a panic. All rap for the bridge which was nearby in order to escape what they considered an attempt on the part of the police to take their lives. The weight of the thousands that had rushed onto the bridge caused the bridge to snap throwing hundreds into the water, where many were drowned. Some were trampled to death. Tut-ankh-Amen Tomb Opened; Inner: Sarcophagus Revealed CMIRO, Oct. 26. Tusahachi Americans bomb promises again to be the centre of attention for American tourists this winter. The bomb has been reopened and the threat of the sarcochinus lifted safely, revealing inside the presence of another sarcochinus whereon reopened a thin covering of lumen and several bouquets of flowers in a wonderful state of preservation. Mr. Burton of the Metropolitan Museum has taken photographs of the sarcochinus. Footbinding in China Varicusly Accounted for Appropriate accounts, are given of the origin of the Chinese custom which demands that the feet of gentlewomen shall not be permitted to attach their natural growth. one is that an Emperor was so extremely zealous of his wife that to prevent her gadding about he put her feet in iron slippers, which reversed their growth, says the Cincinnati Enquirer. Another account is that a certain Empress, Tan-tie (B. C. 1100), was born with stifleria and that she persuaded the Emperor to issue an edict, adopting her feet as the model of beauty and requiring the compression of the feet of all female infants, as a conform to the imperial standard. A third account is that the Emperor Leucyh (A. D. 1961) was amusing himself one day in the palace when they thought occurred to him that he might improve the appearance of the feet of his favorite wife, and that he thereupon caused her feet to be so hurt as to rattle the instep into an arch resembling a new moon. The figure, it is said, was much admired by the courtiers, who then began to introduce it in its town families. Subject: "The Supernatural Powers of the Soul." Text Pe. 3: 4, 5. I. Here, then we are face to face with a future order of objecta, mana relation to which enhances the value and defines more exactly the position of the soul. The facts on which we have already dwelt are, for the most part, God's revelations of a moral order, enriched and fulfilled indeed by Jesus our Master, but in their immediate teachings living man, but a general view of his duties and a vigorous anticipation of his destiny. To put him in full possession of the place that one should occupy who is but a "little lower than the angels," is surely in some sense to unfold before him with greater distinctness a more accurate chart of the lapid to which he is haustering; it is surely to spread out within range of his observation the realm of mystery to enable him to realize his place in the order of supernatural life. And here it is note unimportant to remember the fact of its existence. For you, perhaps, with the sensitive straight-forwardness of a practical age, will bur my further way, my brother, and demand of me what I mean by mystery. Well, at first, when such questions are urged upon us, the difficulty really is to say what is not mystery. In one sense mystery is common enough; no common, it is a more truism to insist upon it. The rising of the sun, the setting of the day, the rushing of the whids, the gathering of the clouds, the growth of grass, the change of season, the insult powers which yield with reluctance anything of their secret to the analysis of chemistry; the whole wonder of the visible universe this is a region of mystery. We ourselves, I need hardly repeat it, in our greatness as well as in our littleness, are mysteries—deep, insoluble, from the cradle to the grave. Man knows just enough of the world he lives in and the creature he himself is, just enough to familiarize him with the fact of mystery and lead him, if he is loyal to the teachings of experience, to expect further, deeper mysteries as he travels further into the realms of the graver questions relating to his life. For by mystery is meant neither a dream of the mind in reverie, nor a slight sketch of the fancy, nor a vivid picture of the imagination, but a series of real and external facts, with all the value that attaches necessarily to anything that is, but which are of such kind that they belong not to the sphere of mere natural experience; nor come within the cognizance of the unpaid faculties of man. Mysteries are facts shrouded from ordinary observation, facts in whose reality we have sure grounds of belief, but whose roots are so deep we cannot reach them, whose causes and laws so hidden we cannot trace. Such mysteries may be expected with increasing certainty on the spiritual side of the life of man. Now, to say that there are each and that they have a direct bearing upon man's character and destiny is to speak of what is called by those giants "the supernatural order" what is felt by every believer to be a supernatural life. And here my friends, I contemplate seriously and earnestly to enter my protest against this sort of fashionable altercation, at my rate an increasing habit, of discarding the word which has been want to represent the notion of this mysterious class of beings and relationships, and instead of speaking of the supernatural order, prefers to include all that is under the name of Nature. (Continued next issue.) The Literature We Read Is of Much Importance For the last half century we, as members of a downrodden race, have been reading the scripta, patches and books of the other person. Reading that which has been done by his kind and oftimes glory in relating the anecdotes of the life of this or that queen of this or that empire. The putting aside of funds to purchase such writings or works is up to now a custom in many Negro homes, especially in the West Indies. It forms a part of their existence, as it would appear, but alas, it degenerates their prestige. No race will take pride in itself says it is compelled to help or read or speak of the praisesworthy deeds of its ancestors. Ever and anon in our daily walks of life we are compelled to hear of the "dark continent" and in no other term other than degrading. We hear that all Africans are savages: Savages! The word comes back with a juvenile sound and says: When we were putting forward a civilization to the world the white men were spilling the blood of their brothers on fertile soil that their respective households may have meat. The same voice which is struggling to keep back the murmurs says to us: Enter the gate track of life and rescue that which has been wrecked from you. There is no time to lose. The loss of the world are now fixed upon us to find out what we are about. We have to survive by the material, and we cannot survive by the material save we have the material. And we cannot get the material by sitting down. We have to gird our loins and make joyful the graves of our ancestors. The time is fast approaching when the world will demand of us a civilization for the benefit of this vast human family; when we will be called upon to rule ourselves. Then let us save the path of our destiny, since it is, bur hands. We have to down the obstacles of today that tomorrow we have them not. We have to blast the ridges and storm our way to glory. It is quite obvious that no one will do these things for us. Not that the other fellow hates us—but he is about his business. And he doesn't care what takes place so long as his way is made clear. We have to climb the same stairs and mount to the summits of our ancestry. Too long have doors been closed in our faces. Too long have we been succumbing to the ada- The Negro Year Book for 1925-26 JUST OUT It is an annual encyclopedia of the Race. This book should be in the hands of all of our people.

The world will cease to hear "Africa for the Africans" when 400,000,000 Negroes are extinct. We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have resolved to face all odds for the redemption of Africa and we mean to redeem it, with our lives, if need be. P. Alex Higginson, San German, Oriente, Cuba. Even as Marcus Garvey To the Editor of The Negro World: It is my opinion that we are not born with two eyes, but four. We have two eyes outside and two eyes inside. Our inside eyes are our spiritual eyes and they ought to see many things that our other eyes do not see. Our spiritual eyes ought to be all-seeing. The future success and progress of the Negro will depend largely upon his ability to view our problems from a correct angle through his spiritual eyes. We must see all of our dangers as a group and prepare to overcome them before they overtake us. The Honorable Marcus Garvey has been sent to guide and direct us. He is using all of his eyes and he is trying to teach us to use ours. The U. N. I. A., with the leadership of Marcus Garvey, is bringing to us a message that cannot be mistaken. Negroes must not fall to grasp the opportunities which are now before them. The Honorable Marcus Garvey is doing his best, but the program will not succeed until we also do our best. Africa Is Ours To the Editor of The Negro World: In a current issue of The Negro World I saw a message which was sent from Washington to the Amer- icans who have joined the French fight- ing against Riffa in Morocco. They say that the Riffa are not a nation and have no rights worth respecting. This Nature's Way of Forcing the Hair to grow long, soft and healthy. A combination of dried and powdered seed.

Price 35 cents. message is not only to the Riffs but to the 406,000,000 Negro people, of the world. We are of the same African blood. The Riffs are our kingmen and women. This message should sink deep down into every Negro man and woman's heart. The Negro is not a "nation" and we have no rights worth rejecting. This is what the Honorable Marcus Garvey has been preaching for seven long years. It has come out in black and white so that every eye can see and every car can hear. If we want respect, if we want what is due to every race as laid down by the Creator Himself, we must get together by joining the Universal Negro Improvement Association and support it at all costs. When we are united and have a government of our own, we will not be but demand the respect which is given to every nation. The white man seeks to confuse the Negro by giving, conflating opinions about it. In one breath he calls Africa the dark continent and in the next breath he calls it the cradle of civilization. But we need to realize that whatever it is, it is our home and we must reclaim it to establish ourselves as a national group. Civilized or uncivilized, we love it and want it for our own.

League of Nations Only for Certain Folk To the Editor of the Negro World: An editorial in a recent issue of The Negro World, under the caption, "What Has the League of Nations Accomplished?" has won much praise and great commendation among Negroes in this vicinity. I believe Negroes in all parts of the world who have read this editorial are as much delighted as we are. The Negro World has given to the world at large and to Negroes in particular the conclusive convictions and truths about this yearly farce which is now in its sixth year, at the time when we were speculating as to the result of achievement of this year's Assembly of Nations. When we look back over the course that the League has run, we wonder if anything has been done. Has any effort been made to reflect too sorrowful situation in Morocco, Syria, Africa in general and elsewhere, in spite of the very apparent necessity? The oppressed peoples of the world have come to realize that this League of Nations is only for certain people or nations. To the Editor of The Negro World: I have always been interested in the welfare of my race, but since becoming a reader of The Negro World, my interest has increased. I feel it my duty to send you a word of approval for the U. N. I. A. and the splendid work it is doing to awaken the Negroes of the world. It is fine that some, organization has come among us which is awakening the Negro from his long sleep and causing him to view with a seeing eye the past, present and future. Reviewing past and present conditions among us causes us to realize what is required of us as a people in the future. We must watch, fight and pray. In the past we have prayed much. Now we are putting more emphasis on the watching and fighting. We still believe in prayer, but we know that prayer without agion availeth nothing. One of the greatest handicaps with which the Negro has had to deaf is being burdened down with sellish and Chronic catarrh, no matter how bad, and cases of bronchial asthma now yield instantly to the amazing discovery of a French scientist.

You must give your name and address for this generous free treatment and prove that you can be rid of catarrh. W. R. SMITH, 741 Laven Bdg., Kansas City, Mo. WORLD FARMERS' BODY MAKES WORLD APPEAL FOR GARVEY'S RELEASE The following manifesto has been issued by the "Peasants' International," a worldwide organization of farmers of Europe, Asia, Africa and America, with headquarters at Moscow. It calls upon the farmers of the world to agitate for, the liberation of Marcus Garvey, president-general of the Universal-Negro Improvement Association, who is now serving a five-year sentence at Atlanta federal prison. It also contemplates appealing to the workers of all countries to unite in protest against the outrage. In 1917, Marcus Garvey came to America, and founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association, whose aim was to form an independent Negro state in Africa and to return to that country the millions of dark-skinned slaves from America and the colonies. Taking advantage of the indignation accumulated among the Negroes against the British treatment and deprivation of political rights, against the degrading laws and lynchings (for Negroes in America have less rights than the Jews in most Russia), Marcus Garvey established in the course of three years a tremendous movement among American Negroes, gaining four million adherents and establishing fraternal ties between the American Negroes and their exploited countrymen in Africa and other colonies. The capitalists realized that the movement led by Garvey, the movement for Negro independence even under 'the modest slogan of "Back to Africa," contained the embryo of the future revolutionary movement which, in alliance with the workers and peasants, is to threaten the reign of capital. And the American government decided to smash Garvey's organization by killing him politically as a leader, by drowning him in a flood of mud-silting and calumny. The American capitalists did not shrink from staging an outrageous judicial comedy, accusing Marauc Garvey of grand larceny. Marauc Garvey was sent to jail. The whole of his trial was an怒ry of revengeful capitalism bent on destroying the man who had ventured, to raise his hand against the blind leaders. Blind leadership is a thing hard to define and harder to overcome. If our leaders are blind, and they are the watchmen of the race, how can we ever accomplish anything? Let us wake up and remove these blind obstacles from our path, and victory is assured. JAMES E. BRADLEY. Chicago, Ill. Negro Universal King coming to rule the World Rev.
