Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: We have been discouraged in the past by leaders who have no confidence in themselves. We were made to feel and to believe that there is no use trying—nothing can be done. Because of such teaching, we have struggled on without being able to evolve an ideal through which we would arrest the attention of serious-minded people. The world has been trained to disregard the Negro as a factor—as a force to be reckoned with. Universally, races and nations paid no attention to the action of the Negro because they thought that it meant nothing. But the Negro has gradually evolved a new ideal which is more and more winning the respect and consideration of the races and nations of the earth. But the world will continue to pass us by with an unseeing eye until it is sufficiently impressed with the seriousness of our intentions to change the present state of the Negro. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has since its organization used all of its influence to impress upon the world the seriousness, the grim determination of the new Negro. Salvation Depends on Rank and File Although strong leaders will always be needed, it is upon those who make up the rank and file of the race that our salvation depends. If we want large opportunities, larger opportunities, more privileges, we must continue to stick together until we get what we want. There are some of us who feel that nothing can be done. It is unfortunate that we have such weak ones among us. For any man at any time between the cradle and the grave to admit that he cannot do what the other man has done makes him unfit to be classed with men. God created all men equal, whether we be white, yellow or black. When you admit that you cannot do as a race what others have done, you hurl an insult at the Almighty who created you. If you call yourselves men, you must prove it. There is nothing that the white man has done that the Negro cannot do. Therefore, let no one divert your minds from the grand cause of doing for Africa what the white man has done for Europe and America. The Spirit of the New Negro I would not want to live if I were satisfied to be a peon, a serf, or a slave. And that is the spirit of the new Negro. He wants to be a free man. He wants to be given an opportunity to prove himself a real man—not a puppet, not a sycophant; a cringer, but a man. What right has the Negro to continue to look up to other races for sustenance and support? What right has the Negro to be asking someone else to do for him what he is well equipped physically, mentally and spiritually to do for himself? Thought is the thing that conquers man. We must first believe before we can achieve. If you fail to believe that you can do what other men have done and are doing Suffering Gladly—For Africa Redeemed Founder and President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, who is now denied his liberty so that Negroes shall be free and they choose to believe themselves superior, they are indeed superior to you. The power to do was placed in you by your Creator. No one can minimize that power but you. God has given you the power to rise to the highest point of human possibility. Time for Cringing Has Passed The time for cringing, begging and apologizing has passed. When your rights are at stake, there is no need or occasion for you to think whom you are offending in demanding what is rightfully yours. Your birthright has been stolen and this is no time for you to apologize to the man who possesses it, because you want it back. It is up to the Negro to reach out and take what is his. I am not against the white man in the sense of being opposed to him because of his progress. On the contrary, I admire and compliment him for his progress. He has made good use of the powers in him. If the Negro fails to progress, no one is to blame but the Negro. There is so much for us to learn from the example which is constantly before us. We see that only the fit survive, and our great problem is to develop our potentialities as a people to the point where we shall become sufficiently fit to take our places in the world as men and enjoy the benefits thereof. In the Other Fellow's Environment It is the plan of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to remove the Negro from the environments that are crushing the life out of him. We live at a great disadvantage in these environments. We live in a civilization that is alien to us, wherein we have to imitate and follow everything that the other fellow does. We remain in this environment simply because we have no will of our own to create our own environment. The Negro must evolve a civilization of his own. He must pick out the best that he sees in others and use it for his own advantage in developing this civilization. The Universal Negro Improvement Association came upon the stage not one day too soon. Many efforts are being made to distract the mind of the new Negro and prevent him from understanding what he wants. Leaders here and leaders there have been sought to turn the tide of Negro hope and ambition. They have left no stone unturned to stop the progress and success of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Fostering Complacency Among Negroes These attempts on the part of certain people take various forms. Governments offer inducements to individual members of our race who have for years stood prominently among us. They attempt to satisfy the longings, the desires of a people by giving a little recognition to certain ones among us. This is to put us in a satisfied state of mind so that we will cease to clamor for those things which are rightfully ours as a group. I plead with you not to accept the doctrine of the weak-kneed leader who tells you it can't be done. The redemption of Africa from alien hands is a surety. The Negro has proved himself a human being enjoying all, if not more, of the virtues that are common to man. To say, then, that Africa cannot be redeemed is to deny the God-head. Go forth, Negroes, and conquer. Be satisfied with nothing less than the opportunity and ability to shape your own lives, and your children's, according to your own concepts. Do this, and you will account yourselves worthy before the Creator. I have the honor to be. VICIOUS SCHEME TO DECEIVE NEGROES AND UNDERMINE FAITH OF MEMBERSHIP THE WORLD OVER IN HON. MARCUS GARVEY IS EXPOSED NEW YORK TIMES "NEWS" ARTICLE WHICH IS BROADCAST THROUGHOUT COUNTRY, ONLY ANOTHER EFFORT OF THE ENEMY TO DISRUPT THE ORGANIZATION LAW FIRM IN LETTER OF EXPLANATION DENIES HAVING GIVEN INFORMATION TO PRESS AS PUBLISHED Garvey Remains the Idol of Millions of Negroes Because of His Great Sacrifice and His Herculean Efforts in the Cause of Negro Freedom HON. WILLIAM SHERRHL, URGES MEMBERSHIP TO REDOUBLE EFFORTS TO SECURE CHRISTMAS PARDON FOR GREATEST NEGRO LEADER OF ALL TIME As Acting President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, I find it necessary at this time to brand as false, wicked and maliciously planned propaganda, news articles being circulated through the press and otherwise to the effect that the membership, a group of the membership or those who at present control the affairs of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, repudiate the leadership of Marcus Garvey or in any way actively or passively endorse criticism of efforts made by him to carry out the program of the association. These news articles and persons responsible for the spreading of this propaganda form but a part of the great effort on foot for the purpose of breaking up the Universal Negro Improvement Association and destroying the influence of Marcus Garvey Leadership of Garvey Indispensable I am in position truthfully to state that at no time has the organization been more united in its allegiance to the undisputed and indisputed leadership of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is satisfied with the leadership of Marcus Garvey and more confident today than ever before that he is the only real leader the race has had since Frederick Douglass. His imprisonment has, but intensified the Association's determination to follow where he leads. To repudiate Garvey means to repudiate the Universal Negro Improvement Association, for the Universal Negro Improvement Association is but the material manifestation of the spirit of Garvey. The aggressiveness, ambition and ideals of this organization, the willingness manifested on the part of its followers to suffer, sacrifice and pay whatever price necessary for African Redemption are but indications of the spirit of Garvey breathed by Garvey into the souls of millions of black folks who believe in him. The agent responsible for the dis- emnation of this lasiidae pyg- ganda put out for the purpose of de- stroying Garvey are totally ignorant of the futility of their attempt. I have taken no notice of this move before now because I saw from the beginning the folly of such efforts. I speak at this time merely to reassure our muni- bership of the attitude of the admini- stration in this particular and also to enable them clearly to discern the con- temptible tactics of those would be de- destroyers of our world-wide organization.

You can go to do in to take your impatience to direction, and you can move this and you can make mention of it in all my lectures. The most recent instance of this vicious propaganda is a news article published in the New York Times and subsequently released throughout the country by the Preston News Service, carrying an announcement purporting to come from the firm of Jacobson & Jacobs. According to this announcement Mr. Garvey's popularity is due to his willingness to give jobs with huge salaries to all who he thought would be of service to him in spreading propaganda for the upbringing of his movement, and that when the Association failed to redeem the promises of Garvey, suits were brought against. It and judgments obtained. It is further stated that Mr. Garvey alone is responsible for the indebtedness of the Association. Now, these false statements are too ridiculous for words. Outsiders with but a casual acquaintance with our constitution know that the Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World is wholly and solely responsible for the election and endorsement of officials who occupy high positions in the Association and that if Mr. Garvey's popularity depended upon the handful of officials who have left, or were forced to leave and subsequently audited the Association, he would enjoy no popularity whatever. Anyone who is acquainted with the organization understands clearly that this is but an attempt to misrepresent Mr. Garvey and place him in a false light. As to his popularity, one need only to know the needs and sufferings of the Negro and learn about Garvey's program and work and the sacrifice he now makes behind prison bars to know to what his popularity is due. Mr. Garvey's real popularity is with millions of poor, hard-working, suffering Negroes all over the world who before Garvey's coming were lost and dependent in the wilderness of oppression, exploitation and racial hate and to whom Garvey brought light, hope and courage and indicated the way to the promised land. To those poor beighted millions Garvey did not give jobs; he gave them things bigger than more jobs—hope, courage and a knowledge of themselves as creatures of God with the undeniable right to enjoy the best things of life. He fortified them in the belief that they, too, can climb to such heights as other races have attained. He made them understand that what other man have done they, too, can do, whether it be clearing forests or painting pictures, digging ditches or building governments. It is to this new realization brought by A new oil lamp that gives an amazingly brilliant, soft, white light, drops better than gas or electricity, has been used in leading universities and found to be appropriate to 10 ordinary oil lamps.

Acting President General of the National Highway Improvement Association, Inc. 66 West 326th Street. New York City. In reply to your request for information regarding article in the New York "Times" on November 20th, 1928, this is to inform you that the statements that appeared in the New York "Times" on November 20th, 1928 are not the statements given by this office. What we did say is that the New York Local has procured a mortgage against its property and with this money paid all the judgments that have been recorded against them and that the New York Local is in good financial condition and that they will in the near future building on their plot which will be known as Liberty Hall. Any statement that appears in newspapers other than what we stated above, is false and perhaps made by someone to mislead the members of your organization. This office stands ready at all times to give your assistance to the best service and protect the interests of your organization and its members. How the menthol is mixed in Luden's Menthol Cough Drops is a secret—but it's no secret that Luden's gives quick relief to everybody for coughs, colds, catarrh, nose and throat trouble. Sold everywhere. Wm. H. Luden, Inc. Buffalo, Pa. LUDEN'S MENTHOL COUGH DROPS Garvey is a down-trodden race: his popularity is due. It is the millions who do not even hope for a job that love and worship him. It is the great mass of his race whom the government says he defrauded, who gave tons of thousands of dollars to his second shipping venture, still give for the carrying on of the work he started, and airy aloud with sincerity, "Let Garvey go free!" So, let none be misled as to where Garvey's popularity lies. Its great ambling place is to be found not in the hearts of a few selfish individuals who enjoy "big jobs" and "huge salaries," but in the swelling breasts of the masses. Name of Leader Must Live But why say more about this and other articles circulated for the purpose of destroying Garvey's work? They cannot destroy Garvey's achievements, for he has written them indelibly on the sands of time. Long after these schumers are dead and forgotten Garvey will live in the hearts of men. Despite the machinations of opresses and hypocrites who pretend to be friends, Garvey's achievements will weather the centuries and his self-sacrifice example will stand as a beacon light to guide the paths of millions yet unborn. None will know how Mr. W. L. Sherrill, Acting President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Assn. 56 West 95th Street, New York City. Dear Sir: In reply to your request regarding article in the New York 20th, 1926, this is to inform you that appeared in the New York "20th, 1926" are not the statement office. What we did say is that has procured a mortgage against with this money paid all the just been recorded against them and Local is in good financial condition in the near future building which will be known as Liberty. Any statement that appears other than what we stated above, hope made by someone to mislead organization. This office stands ready to give your association the best of the interests of your organization. Deer Sir: well he has wrought until they attempt to follow in his footsteps, by carrying on what he so nobly began. With an organization of such colossal magnitude as the Universal Negro Improvement Association in his hands, opposed as he was by powerful combines who were determined to thwart every effort, confronted by jealous self-seekers within the organization who wanted to be Marceus Garvey, but lacked the stuff of which Marceus Garvey are made, Garvey has accomplished an almost superhuman task. Millions of our race have Garvey for his work and honor him for his contribution. We will not sit idly by and permit any vilification of his name or his being placed in a false light without striking back. We believe in the man, we believe in the program and stand ready to honestly defend both against all comers. **Law Firm's Explanation** The firm of Jacobson & Jacobs has been requested to give full explanation of this announcement supposed to come from them. They assured us that the whole article was a mis-statement of the facts and replied to my inquiries as shown in the letter reproduced above. The world must know that whatever ill-informed persons may think of Marcos Garvey, the great mass of Negroes still believe and follow him. Let him but come from Atlanta to makes breathing easier How the more Luden's Mem is a secret— that Luden's to everybody catarrh, nose Sold e improve and millions of worn, tired, anxious faces will sturge, about him to catch but a glimpse of their only leader. Be Not Disturbed by Propaganda Let no member be disturbed over this propaganda, for that is the subject of its authors. If it causes dismay and loss of faith in those who are holding the fort, then the enemy shall not have labored in vain. When we believe every news article we read, every report we hear, we are but giving so much aid to those who want either to destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association or are ambitious to advance themselves at the expense of those who are bearing the brunt of the fray. Our one duty at this time is to be sure that we are loyal to the cause of African redemption and its great leader who now suffers in behalf of that cause. We cannot be loyal to either of these, however, unless we are loyal to those who are honestly trying to carry on. Garvey's hands are tied. He must have honest men who will stand by him and be true to the principles of the organization in carrying on. We have no fear of the loyalty of our members. We are proud of the way the members of our divisions are standing by and supporting the parent body. We are confident from the many encouraging letters received from all parts of the world that the membership as a whole is determined to see to it that the organization Garvey left is held intact until his physical return, for his spirit is and has been with us always. It is because of this determination and support that we are enabled to march steadily on. Pardon for Marcus Garvey As the New Year approaches we can have but one hope, and that is that 1928 December 1, 1925. of the Art Association, Inc. or request for information New York "Times" on November form you that the statements York "Times" on November statements given by this is that the New York Local against its property and the judgments that have and that the New York condition and that they building on their plot liberty Hall. that appears in newspapers above, is false and per- sued the members of your and ready at all times to best service and protect implication and its members. will find our leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, again with us. It has been announced in the press that President Coolidge will issue a number of Christmas pardons. May God touch the President's heart to include Marcus Garvey's name in these pardons. Garvey has committed no crime. He is needed by his people. Every member should send immediately to the President of the United States a telegram asking the President to hear the pleadings of 4,000,000 citizens of America, begging for the freedom of their leader and grant Marcus Garvey a Christmas pardon. Trusting that God will crown our work with tremendous success and that our leader will be delivered from Atlanta at Christmastide, with best wishes, I remain Yours for service. WILLIAM L.

Editor of African World Encourages the People of Africa to Greater Efforts, as He Tells of Reaction to Garvey's Persecution By the Editor of the African World Socrates, that celebrated philosopher of old, whose name is on the lips of every student, was accused as a "corrutor of youth" because his doctrines on morality and Deliy were neither comprehended nor apprehended by those who were bold enough to accuse him. This great man who deserved the best of humanity then was shamefully condemned to die a criminal's death. Men and women of the African race, is this not an instance of judicial iniquity or governmental tyranny. In India the British diplomatist tried to oppose Gandhism with their imperialistic propaganda. Did they succeed? No! The longer they kept him in prison, the more they fanned the sparks of Gandhism into flames. The insignificant rulers of the United States of America, the "land of the free, and home of the brave," have now incarcerated Marcus Garvey, the President-General of the U. N. I. A., in the Atlanta Penitentiary, because he has awakened the long exploited robbed Negroes of the world. Though Marcus Garvey is imprisoned, the Garveyite philosophy has risen like the sun in heaven. It fast spreading its illumination over all Negroes in the world. The governing powers of South Africa are secretly trying to destroy the African National Congress and the Industrial and Commercial Workers' Union. Leaders of these organizations, beware, he watchful. Walk circumspectly. At this juncture I seriously warn my people to get ready, though I am far from being a prophet. I see, I am writing, a bitter time—a time of rears and groans committed with anguish. But with our efforts, both intellectual organization and economical, we can avoid these coming bitter days. If we must live as a people; I see we must enjoy the benefits of our toll—we must be prepared to occupy our rightful place among the nations of the world. As you know, we are confronted with the challenge of opposition we are forced to answer to the alternative, "prevail or die." Personally I see no reason nor just cause why we should not prevail. As a people we are endowed—like all other races—with power, energy and intellect. The right use of these gifts can do for us all that we desire, which no other race can do for us, viz., the amelioration and improvement of our people, in all matters pertaining to economy, education, industry and politics. Finally, I say to you, my people: Strive to be free men and women or forever be slaves. NEGROES RENEW FIGHT FOR ANTI-LYNCH LAW WASHINGTON. Dec. 6. Negro leaders here have launched a campaign for an anti-lycheg law at the coming session of Congress. They propose an industrial commission to study Negro problems, provision for a monument to Negro soldiers, public bathing facilities with the whites in the District of Columbia and federalization of Howard University. Representative L. C. Dwyer of Missouri will reintroduce his anti-lycheg bill, which passed the House two years ago, but failed of a vote in the Senate. This measure was opposed by Southern Senators, who asserted it was aimed at the South. Negro advocates admitted today they do not expect it to pass unless the rules of the Senate are changed to make closure easy. The Negro Industrial Commission bill will provide for a commission of five persons, three of whom shall be Negroes, to be appointed by the President, the salaries not to be more than $5,400, except in the case of the chairman, who would receive $7,000. The duties of this commission, it was explained, would be "to study economic conditions and labor problems affecting the Negro, to discourage Bolshevism and to formulate a policy of understanding and confidence between the races." ALBEMARLE, N. C.—Stories of how Negro convicts were "beaten so unarmed fully" that they died within a few hours are featuring the trial of M. C. Cranford, Stanley County Convict Superintendent. Eight witnesses testified last week of known cruelties of Cranford, extending over a period of several years. The Anglo-Saxon Alliance Threatens to Consolidate Other Races Against It, and is Beginning to Threaten the Peace of the World By WILLIAM J. RUTLEDGE In the New York World NEW YORK, Nov. 23.—"As long as the English-speaking world sticks together," said Mr. John St. Loe Strachey of London, "the world is safe." Surely this is perilous doctrine to be preaching at this time. Supposing Mr. Strachey and the others that urged it to be sincere, is it possible they have never thought of its only logical conclusion? A combination of English-speaking peoples to dominate the world is exactly as great an exit, exactly as inimical to the world's welfare and exactly as certain to provoke war as a combination of German-speaking peoples to dominate the world. The alarming results of the preaching of "Anglo-Saxon solidarity" are already apparent in the steadily growing anti-Saxon alliance that this loose and most foolish talk has created. The threat of an Anglo-Saxon domination has divided the world into two hostile camps already preparing to fight. "The United States and Great Britain together can liken the world," is the favorite motto of the persons that advocate such a copartnership. It is morally equivalent to a declaration of war, and if we are to continue to tolerate it all talk of disarmament is lunatic. In the last seven years more than 600 English lecturers, writers, professors and politicians have visited this country to further this creed of ruin. It is time we should tell them the plain truth about their efforts. To the United States, made up of all peoples, all nations must look alike. Nothing else is American and nothing else is safe. WAR ON NATIVES IN SOUTH AFRICA MUST CEASE Death Outright Would Be More Humane Than Gradual Process of Extermination Now In Evidence in South Africa (From The Boston Chronicle) Were the Europeans in South Africa to drive the natives all at once into the sea this would be an act more humane than the gradual process of killing them or through the varied but determined policy of restriction. In the struggle between the Boers and the English the natives allied themselves with the English. After the settlement of peace the English left the natives entirely to the mercy of the Boers. The native is paying now for his former loyalty with none to intervene in his behalf. In 1912 the natives' land act provided a penalty of $500 or six months' imprisonment to any white man who maintained, with the natives in certain areas any relationship other than that of master and servant. They could not sell, lease or rent land to natives. Unless the natives was in his employ he could not use this land. Untold suffering and loss of wealth to the natives followed the passage of this land act. Last spring the color bar bill was passed by which natives were excluded from skilled and semi-skilled employment. Now comes a news item from Smithfield, Orange Free State, telling of a decision to deprive the natives of the Cape Province of their existing pari-miliary franchise. The reason given is that the native voters would outnumber the white voters in fifty years. As a compromise the government has proposed to give the right to the natives throughout the Union to elect seven Europeans to represent them in the Legislative Assembly. This continued and increasing policy of restriction is a specie of war in which the stability and prosperity of the native living conditions are being constantly interfered with. The humanity and injustice of this situation has not called forth an lota of protest from the civilised powers seeking to control and arbitrate the affairs of the world. So soon, however, as the natives in self-defense come out in the open with what we recognize as war the entire civilised world will be ready to go to the defense of the Europeans in South Africa. Why not check the Europeans in South Africa now as they continue to war on the welfare of the natives instead of waiting until the natives began to measure them before intervening? Interesting Discussion of "Color" and "Race". Prejudice-Caucasian Race Has Not, in Spite of Vaunted Civilization, Succeeded in Uplifting Mankind. The Gold Coast Times in its issue of October 31 publishes an interesting commentary on an article entitled "Color Prejudice," by Lord Sydney Oliver, written by him two years ago. This article was published in installations in recent issues of the Gold Coast Times. Lord Sydney Olivier, who, it will be remembered, was a member of the British Labor Cabinet, headed by Ramsay Macdonald, has, as Sir Sydney Olivier, done service for Great Britain mainly as a Colonial Governor in the West Indies, and is regarded by "subjects of Great Britain" in those parts as a very efficient instrument of oppression wielded by the British Empire. The Gold Coast Times' comment is as follows: The writer introduces his subject with a reference to the population of Great Britain, with whose mixed racial origin we are so familiar, and this is worthy of notice in view of the fact, that the Anilo-Sakon bios, the mixture of Celts, Jutes, Angles, Franks, Scandinavians and others, with African and Athenian infiltrations, is the one in which color prejudice is deeply rooted. He draws a distinction between race prejudice and color prejudice and says that he is not aware of Any moral ingredient in color prejudice which cannot be detected in race prejudice between races of a common color or between tribes of the same race. This is a distinction no subtle that most men are apt to overlook it. In fact, most of us have come to regard race prejudice and color prejudice as synonymous terms which is not really the case. Race prejudice may exist between races of the same color, or tribes of the same race, where color prejudice is wholly absent. Race prejudice, as the writer affirms, is an ancient deeper-seated phenomenon and is less harmful in its is a modern manifestation. Race prejudice is the outcome of fear, injustice and distrust. A nation or a tribe is seized with the apprehension that another nation, or its near neighbor, has some minister designs against it, and is planning to overthrow its independence; and fear, jealousy and distrust are engendered among its people: weild race, once independent, is subdued by a powerful one which grinds it down with unjust laws and taxation; and the dominant race becomes the object of its aversion. On the other hand, the dominant race while holding down a subdued people may still be jealous of the latter, owing, perhaps, to its failure to have broken the spirit of the subdued people completely, or to the possession by the latter of certain rights and privileges which could not be taken away from them. Europe Furnishes an Example We see the prevalence of race prejudice amongst the members of the same race in the existing relationships between the several European groups. These European nations, though members of the same Caucasian race in which color prejudice is wholly absent, are not at peace with one another and are living in armed camps. But race prejudice could be bridged or neutralized when men desire to suppress it in order to achieve a dofulite purpose. In the Napoleonic wars, when the greatest military genius of these times attired Europe and shook the nations, the English, Prussians, Austrians, Spaniards and others soon forgot about their racial animities, and combined to oppose the common enemy. Yet in 1914 the English who had opposed the French at Waterloo were able to suppress the age-long racial feud between them and the French in order to combine against the Prussians. We have the same experience amongst the different tribes in this country and in other parts of West Africa. The Fani and the Ga, allowing to racial characteristics peculiar to each tribe, may nurse racial prejudice against one another even though such racial emmity is so disguised as to be imperceptible to It is the only way you will ever know all of your past appointments in your yearbook from Acton.

SUPPORT TO MOVEMENT Garveyism Has Wrought a World Change in the Thoughts of Negroes, and Their Progress Can No Longer Be Stayed LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, Dec. 6.—Liberty Hall tonight witnessed a great outpouring of loyal followers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who, on Garvey Day, come out in unusually large numbers to pay homage and respect to their great leader who is heroically suffering imprisonment for the cause which he espouses. The meeting was presided over by Mr. G. A. Weston, vice-president of the New York Local, who was also the principal speaker, and among the executive officers present were Hon. William L. Sherrill, acting president-general, and Hon. Levi Lord, auditor-general. An entertaining musical program was rendered by the choir and the Universal Band, and the following youngsters of the Juvenile Cadet, Corps gave recitations and readings which were greatly applauded; Leonard Ellinston, Ernest Gover, Schoffield Codner and Arthur Knibbs. Mr. Weston's speech was on the subject of "Gratitude." In it he called attention to the great debt of gratitude which the world of Negroes owed the Hon. Marcus Garvey for having given to them an organization that has inspired new hopes for the future of the race. He pleaded for 100 per cent. loyalty to the founder and to those who were entrusted with the responsibility of leadership during his absence. Following is the text of Mr. Weston's speech: Buy Christmas Seals and Save Human Lives Five thousand seven hundred deaths this year from TUBERCULOS, in New York City alone, are 8300 two county. The light must be kept up! We are sure you will help. The plastic bag to be enjoyed BUY CHRISTMAS SEALS. At the Department of Health Department. MR. G. E. WESTON SPEAKS on the subject of "Grattitude." This is Garvey Day, he said, the day that is set apart for the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to be reformed of Marcus Garvey and of Garveyism. "We cannot think of the ideals and objectives of the Universal Negro Improvement Association without thinking of the great leader and the great man who brought into being this great institution with its lofty aims and objects." Grattitude, the speaker said, is not wanting in the Universal Negro Improvement Association and more especially among the members of the New York local. Six years ago he (the speaker) became a convert of Garveyism and put his name on the books of the association in Boston and his gratitude to the man who brought into being this organization has never for one moment been lessened and will never be. The ideals of the organization have not been changed in the minds of those men and women who when they joined did not do so with the idea of following Marcus Garvey par go, but who got behind Marcus Garvey because he had a program and because he gave to the Negro an asylum of refuge. Not Knowing Where to Turn Up to 119 Negroes were led by other leaders up to the forks of the road and as they strolled there they were bewildered and did not know which way to turn. During the World War when Negroes were fighting they were told they were fighting to save the world for democracy and they expected that when the war was over they would be given the same chance as their white brother; but what happened? A Negro was lynched in the United States the day the Armistice was signed and im- BAYER ASPIRIN PROVED SAFE Take without Fear as Told in "Bayer" Package BAYER Does not affect the Heart Unless you see the "Bayer Crose" on package or on inhits you are not getting the genuine Bayer Aspirin proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians over twenty-five years for Colds Headache Nouritis Lumbago Toothache Rheumatism Neuralgia Pain, Pain Each unbroken "Bayer" package contains proven directions.

We are pleasing you as we enjoy Bayer's drugstore. mediately after the return of the Negro soldiers to America a Negro was strung up with the uniform of the United States on his back. It was then that Negroes realized that their leaders had led them to the forks of the road and left them knowing not in which direction to turn. Then there came upon the scene unheralded and unannounced this black man, Marcus Garvey, who had the courage to show the Negro the way out and point him to his destiny not in the United States of America, but on the continent of Africa. It is for this that Negroes should lift their voices in mourn in praise of Marcus Garvey for had Garvey not been inspired by God to bring to the Negroes of the world the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and offer them an asylum of refuge, the rage would have been crushed to pieces long ere flow. We are grateful to Marcus Garvey, not because he is a black man, not because he is from Jamaica or anywhere else, but we are grateful to him because he has given us a hope that we never had before—the hope of African redemption and the emancipation of the race. Marcus Garvey's place in the Universal Negro Improvement Association will remain as long as the organization lives, and there is no force on earth that can destroy the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Marcus Garvey is the life of the organization, and whether he dies in Atlanta prison or goes into exile, the life of the Universal Negro Improvement Association depends upon the use of the name of Garvey and Garveyism in connection with it. There is no one who can take his place. The thing that we are appealing for in the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world is 100 per cent support of the organization. If the members must be factional, we appeal to them to be factional with this one purpose—the bringing about of a harmonious working of the organization of which we are a part. In conclusion he implored the membership to follow the leadership of those who were designated to carry on the work. Let us work together, he said, and let us enter the new year with a new determination to stick to the program and to the ideals which it has given to us. Let us be true to the men whom Garvey has left behind to carry on the work of this great organization. Egyptian Sun God Statue Unearthed at Freius PARIS.—A bronze statuette of Ammon Ro. the Egyptian sun god, has been unearthied at Prejux, in the Department of Var, by workmen digging for the foundation of a new villa, and although its authenticity is attested by the Academy of Inscriptions and Beller Lettres, how it ever came to be so far from ancient Thebes remains a mystery. The statuette is of unusually fine workmanship, the features being finely moulded. Above the head is a small table covered with hieroglyphics. The academy's most learned Egyptologists are trying to decipher the writing, in the hope that they may throw some light on the history of the figurine and its wanderings. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1925 CAUCASIAN RACE AND VAUNTED UPLIFT WORK (Continued from page 2) the foreigner. But let a common, government introduce, legislation affecting their rights in land, or launch a measure aiming at infringing their rights and liberties, and the two tribes will come together to oppose such encroachments. And whatever racial prejudices may exist between the Fantis and the Yorubas or the Creoles of Sierra Leone, they can easily suppress them and meet on common ground in the National Congress of British West Africa to press for reforms for the amelioration of their social and political conditions. All this shows how less harmful and inconvenient is race prejudice itself. But color prejudice is a violent and very harmful type of once prejudice, a superficial thing developed by the white races with the specific object of perpetuating and advertising the so called inferiority of the colored races in order to keep them under a perpetual state of servitude. It is opposed to all ethics and to the principles of all religions since it blinds those who perpetrate it to the recognition of the great destiny of man—the human brotherhood upon which alone any healthy civilization could be reared. History of Caucasian Race But let us examine, for a moment, the history of the origin of the Caucasian race which has arrogantly arrogated to itself superiority over all other members of the human family and insists upon holding the premier position in world affairs. Here the deductions of the writer are most instructive. It tells us that even the oldest races that inhabited Europe, the core dividers and the whole of the northern European races, are but "recent settlers, the remote descendants of the adventurers and hooligans who swarmed out of the central breeding grounds and nurseries of humanity in the warmer middle world above the equator" first into southern Europe and then slowly into the northern parts of the continent after the retreat of the beard made it possible for them to settle. And he adds, as these adventurers and hooligans left the parent stock in the "warmer middle world above the equator," "they certainly begin in this plains, less cavalry and less humans than were the people they left behind them." The "warmer middle world above the equator," to which the writer refers, of course, includes the northern half of Africa. It has been established beyond question that southern Europe was popped from northern Africa, and ar we are aware that large portions of the white continent were populated by large and successive migrations from Asia. Europe virtually becomes not only the youngest among the continents but may be characterized as the "colony" of Africa and Asia. Even as late as the first century of the Christian era, only nineteen centuries ago and long after a higher order of civilization had been established in Egypt, Nubia, Carthage and other parts of our continent, the only portion of Europe known to the civilized world then was Italy, the seat of the Roman Empire, while the tribes, units, tribes and other white races were accounted as barbarians with no political and social standing in the adams of the world. Lacks Essential Uplift Qualities The article confirms the view we have held all along, and when is supported by all intelligent members of our race, that, with all its achievements, the Caucasian race has not much of the essential quality that lits mankind from the level of the animal creation—the deep humanity and sympathy retained by the stock from it separated in its pilgrimage from the Warrior middle world. The white man is civilized, but his civilization is lacking in much of the human element, and this detracts very much from its value. This deficiency renders the life of white civilization rather precarious, and it certainly cannot, under existing circumstances, look forward to as long a house of life as the civilizations that had preceded it. Striking warning of nature Nature has a peculiar way of throwing on the screen, so to speak, at stated periods for the instruction of men, a picture of themselves and of their achievements to enable them to judge of the kind of progress they are making and the direction in which they are traveling, and thereby, to afford them the opportunity of restraining or correcting themselves. The late war was a striking example of this waring of nature. It seems to have been designed to impress the warring nations with the frailty of their civilization. For after nineteen centuries of devel- Colds Stopped in a day Hilf's does 4 things at once—and in 24 hours. It stops the cold, opens the bowls, chats the flower and ginger, pees the groom.

This is the civilization of Europe, the civilization of which its inhabitants are so proud and from which they look down contemptuously on colored-races! Well, Africans ought to follow this civilization cautiously, for if men are sent into the world only to pursue the taks of exploring the most scientific methods of destroying human lives and subjugating and enslaving those who are weaker than themselves, as the white nations are doing, then the whole purpose of creation or evolution would seem to be defeated, and it were better if the world was emptied of its human contents. Africans having deep humanity ought to strike out a path for themselves by developing their own civilization which, with its element of complete humanity for a basis, will show better results than that of the Caucasian. The Caucasian believes in the doctrine that only the strong need survive and that the weak ought to be rooted from the soil or pushed to the wall. Africans hold the contrary view, and maintain that the duty of the strong is to succor the weak, so that together both can travel toward the stage of human brotherhood until the whole human race has become one large family living at peace with one another. And with such dramatically opposed outlooks between black and white, we are to be cautious how we follow the white man, lest we are caught in the vortex of his wild civilization and parish with him when the day of reckoning comes. We shall deal with other portions of the article in a subsequent issue. PARIS, Nov. 25 (PA) - It is the boast of Foreign Minister Briand that he has used the same top-hat for more than twenty years. The veteran topier was still doing duty when the reconstructed Palmere Ministry went before the Chamber of Populists a few days ago. "It has served M. Briand during his seven terms as Premier, during his trip to Washington for the Parliament Conference and through his recent negotiations at Geneva and Lacarne. The Foreign Minister goes out under his scribes as little as possible, preferring the more democratic "derby." It takes the most formal of occasions to induce him to don his tuxedo as the French call it. Last summer M. Brandon on one occasion was received in audience by the King of England. His valet, and even his chauffeur be forced to buy a new top hat, one that did not "date," from the time of the bus exposition (1900) as they put it but he refused, "What, me in a new tux?" he exchanged. "Why I look like a best man." This is a royal audience I'm going to, not a wedding." And off he went with his ancient friend.

FULLY GUARANTEED BLACK AND WHITE CANS 50¢ GREEN CANS 25¢ Arreated on Suspicion, Is Locked Up Without Being Given Opportunity to Prove Innocence — Insight Into Third Degree Methods By ERNEST E. MAIR I got into conversation with him one night on the street car coming home from work, and the talk veering around to the third-degree methods of police procedure, he recounted the following About a year ago he used to work on an evening job from 5 to 12 p.m. There is a car at a little after twelve which he usually tried to catch, but on this particular night he missed it. It happened there was a robbery being perpetrated across the street right then, but not knowing anything of what was afloat, he had paid but small attention to a group of policemen that went by on the opposite corner from where he waited for the next car. He saw them turn down a basement entrance, and thought to himself: "Something's up." A few minutes later they emerged and, crossing to where he stood, took him under arrest. Even then he was not alarmed—messily annoyed at what he thought would occasion him *n* few minutes delay. To their suggestions that he was an accomplice of the thief or thieves he re-returned a gothic denial, secure in his ability to disprove their suspicions. When, however, they took him to the scene of the crime and confronted him with the thief he got a decided surprise. The man was in a pitiful condition. Blood streamed down his face and he looked at the picture of utter deception. "This guy was with you, wasn't he?" asked one officer off the prisoner. The latter inked a negative. "I don't know him," he told after a pause. "Yes, you do, you _____ was the reply, accompanied by a few biblical blows about the head and face that caused the blood to flow afresh. Thus, intimated, the thief admitted that he knew him, "And he is, in this with you?" "Yes," almost inaudibly. The next move was to help them both off to the precinct where the desk assistant again interrupted them. The other man, no doubt fearful of a further clubbing, admitted everything they laid at his door, but my companion steadily denied any knowledge of the affair and offered. It allowed the use of a telephone, to prove his innocence in short order. This was denied and he was looked up after replying to several questions and having his fingerprints taken. The following morning after the line-up at Police Headquarters he was remanded to the Tombes under $1000 but charged with burglary. And not until late afternoon of the same day was he allowed to communicate with friends. This once done, however, it was a simple matter obtaining proof of his innocence. That was Saturday. On the following Monday morning his case came up before the Grand Jury and was dismissed, due to evidence obtained from various unin- peachable source as to his whereabouts immediately prior to his arrest. The irony of it lay in the fact that he had offered the, same proof to the arresting officer and that the persons able to prove his alibi were only a couple of blocks away! Because he expressed his indignation at the outrage he was advised to shut his beak as "smart niggers", could be efficiently "taken care of" by the P. D. And of course he got no redress. Now, Mr. Negro America, go ahead and fight the program of African Nationalism-You don't need any better protection than is afforded you by the high-minded and unprejudiced enforcers of U. S. laws-maybe you don't—and maybe I'm a Chinaman. On the poet's page of the Literary Digest of last week's issue appears the national hymn of the South African "republic." Every Negro ought to read it. And if you can keep cool while reading it, beware always in mind that it is your, fatherland of which those Dutchmen sing, then your thyroid gland is not niring on all cylinders. These Negro-hating whites are to be thanked for continually rubbing our fur up the wrong way. It is good fuel with which to keep burning the home-fires of racial advancement. I admit readily though that I don't thank any man white or otherwise for gratitude insults to my race. It is good for me, but I am a singular ungrateful creature who sends his thanks into the donor's face at the end of a tightly chained fist. WASHINGTON.—An important decision has been recently handed down by the Supreme Court of Arkansas with regard to certain illegal practices heretofore indicted in by the Board of Penitentiary Commissioners by hiring out convicts "to private individuals, firms," partnerships, and corporations for the purpose of clearing lands, congregating houses, leases, and dams" in violation of statute and for private profit. Such employment, the court found, was in contravention of law and public policy. The court said: "It is used that the convicts have not been leased within the meaning of the statute because their physical control is under the supervision and direction of guards and wardens appointed by the pennitary commission. The physical custody of the convicts by the guards and wardens appointed by the pennitary commission does not and cannot prevent the contract from being one of biring out or leasing the convicts. "Such a construction of the statute would in effect render it inaccessible and ineffectual for the purpose for which it was enacted. The public policy of the State, as shown by the legislative will, was to prevent lotting of the convicts to persons or corporations to be worked by them for private gain. To allow the contracts to stand would be contrary to the policy of the 'law' as tending obviously to result in the violation of the purpose and spirit of our statute prescribing the rules and regulations which are to govern the penitentiary board on the control and working of the State convicts." Accordingly, the State Penitentiary Commission was terminated from living out and besieging the State convicts. The above-quoted decision of impartial supremacy to the hundreds of Norwegian convicts in prisons, whose state boards of control have been granting labor compressions to private inmates which have expended prison labor for selfish purposes and personal gain. Thawed with Electricity There is no longer any need to cool under the house with paper and thin dingy wood to thaw out the frozen water pipes and risk burning the house down or suffocating. A German electrician suggests a means of thawing them out with electricity. The ordinary house current is reduced to a voltage that is not excessive by means of a transformer. And then it is sent through the frozen section of water pipe. The heat produced by the current will melt the ice.

Rogera, author of "From Superman to Man," returned to the United States on the French liner, "Nochambou," Saturday, after a five months' stay in Europe. "In spite of the absolute freedom from color restrictions, I am very glad to be back," he said. "When it comes to the matter of being able to earn a living and in knowing how really to provide for personal comfort, the United States is as far ahead of Europe as the former is behind Europe in intellectual development, culture, and art. Europeans are intensely interested in America. Such large numbers of them wish to come here that were it not for immigration restrictions this country would soon be flooded. The lot of the American worker, white or black, is at least three times better than of the European; wages are not only higher, but the cost of living is proprigionately lower." According to the author, his first article on Paris brought him exactly 103 letters. All but one writer wanted to come to France to live, and wished to know either the best way to earn a living or how to get into business there. It was impossible to answer all and so I should like to give a brief, general reply here. "First of all there is the very great barrier of language. Except one can find work among Americans or English, it will be very difficult to get along unless one has a working knowledge of the language no matter how much one learns French here he will find difficulty in understanding it as it is spoken there. I had thought myself extra well prepared, but, after a two months' residence, I was just beginning to understand free and easy conversations.

White, Publishing Department, 8662 Moneta Avenue, Los Angeles, Calif., U. S. A. States in search of work will find it infinitely easier to get along both because it is much easier to find work in America and because the feeling of nationality is nothing near as strong in America as it is in European countries. The Frenchman, Englishman, or German provides for his countryman first. In America color precedes nationality, in European countries the effect opposite is true; a black Frenchman will, generally speaking, find it much easier to get work than a white American. Except I were a very good jazz player there are more than a dozen reasons why I should never think of going to France to earn a living. Besides, the foreign worker, white or black, has to pay a tax to the French government for the privilege of working. Ah, but when it comes to the matter of earning my money here and spending it there, me for it every time. Conservatively speaking, at the low rate of exchange one can live in Paris, if he knows how, three times cheaper than in New York City. And the Parisian bitterly complains of the high cost of living at that. "As to the matter of going in business there pretty much the same holds. I made extensive inquiries on this subject and the gist was that while one could do well in certain lines, the hotel and the care business there was still the matter of nationality. "Murray a Frenchwoman and get her up in business if you want to get along. was the characteristic reply: "Color, cuts no ice in Europe, but money does. A Negro with no money there will pretty soon wish himself back in the United States. I met any number of colored Americans and West Indians who were eager to get back, but had not the price. I also met many colored Frenchmen who were eager to get here. I, am afraid, that the Negro, as a group, will have to fight out this problem here. It is only the exceptional Negro who will be able to survive in Europe with its very hard working conditions."

GARY, INDIANA Gary Division held a monster mass meeting Sunday, November 29, at 3 p.m. in their new building located at 3124 Washington street. The meeting was of a two-fold nature, namely: In behalf of the release of our leader, the Hon. Marcos Garvey, and celebrating the opening of Liberty Hall. Before time for the meeting to open the hall was troubled with anxious hearers. The meeting was opened with the processional "Onward Christian Soldiers," by the U. N. L. A. Tempo Star Band. The opening code was sung by the audience and usual ritual services were conducted. The read by Mrs. Thelma, Finley and the Chaplain, Rev. J. E. Suggs, responded to it. The president made a few remarks before introducing our honored guests, Judge W. C. Hueston and Dr. Vang-Warden. The addresses were thrilling as well as inspiring. Each speaker offered his assistance to do all within his power to have our leader released. The band; directed by Mr. A. E. Elliott, Jr. charmed their hearts as they played many brilliant concert numbers. We feel that the Division is in a better condition than ever before, and with the inspiration gathered at this meeting each one left with a double determination to 'do all possible to put the program over. BESSIE L. WEBSER. Reporter. CAMAGUEY, CUBA The officers and members of Congress Division were given a surprise visit by the high commissioner of the association on Thursday, October 22. An impromptu meeting was called, but owing to his presence not being fully known, the gathering was rather small. However, Mr. Bateholer gave a very lengthy and impressive address, his lecture had so captivated his hearts that the idea of "An African Recognized" became the subject of conversation for many days in this vicinity. On his return from the Vertientes Division on Sunday, October 20, he spoke in crowded house with a very large assembly outside that could not meet space within. He spoke for fellow hours on this occasion, and as result of the convincing truths of his argument many enrolled to take up active work with the division. In the course of his address the commissioner made references to interviews he had with many officials of the country and thereby pointed out to the audience the opinion of many prominent white men in regard to the organization and the Negro's status in this island republic. He also dealt with certain problems affecting the Negro in this community in particular and the entire country in general. He made a brief effort to show to his hearers where the founding of a black republic of their own should be their foremost objective at the present time. All were pretty well satisfied and thankful to the young commissioner for his helpful advice and expressed the desire to entertain him soon again in our community. He left for Guantanamo and other divisions of the Orient, but promised to give us another visit in the near future. We with him health and suc- A. W. J. L. WHITE. Reporter.

At the completion of the program, Mr. D. Sobioni thanked the audience for their whole-hearted support in making the night's meeting a success and hope that in the near future the children in whom the words of the U.N.L.A. are now being sown will be able to give to the world a great and mighty government worthy of recognition and praise.

Care Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey. TAMPA, FLORIDA The members and friends of the U. N. I. A. of Tampa and vienlity are much pleased over the recent visit of Mrs. M. L. T. De Mehn. The work in this vienlity has been much benefited by her, coming. Madame De Mehn reached our city and found us hard at work, but with many problems to solve. Her addresses have removed every hindering cause and given us a new lease in the confidence of the people. Madam De Mehn reached Tampa Sunday morning. November 22, and, though worn out from two days' traveling under the conditions our race has to endure in the South, she appeared at the Belfast Baptist Church at 2:30 Sunday afternoon, and spoke as no person, man or woman, has spoken in Tampa for years. Her address was promoted by many to have been best from every angle heard for a long time in Tampa. Such was the effect of her afternoon address that Rev. D. A. Wuller was applauded when he asked other address. The news of her speech crowded Bethel Church Sunday night to overflowing. Her address caused Mr. Garvey to be viewed in a more favorable light than ever before. We hope that Madam De Mena will soon return to us and also that the same blessings may follow her work elsewhere as attended her here. We wish to give some credit for our success to the kindness of the pastor of Bethel Baptist Church, the Rev. Dr. A. W. Puller, who kindly gave us his church without charge and who has stood by us in every way possible. The U. N. J. A. has a warm and loyal friend in Dr. Fuller. JOHN REED, Reporter.

He played the men for their lethargy and lack of appreciation. The sources of the Oakland division are to be congratulated on their loyalty and devotion to the organization, for at no time has the division called for help and found them unwilling to rally to the issue and save the situation. Sunday afternoon, November 22, the regular mass meeting of the Oakland Infusion was held at Carpenter's Hall. Opening歌 was sung, followed by prayer and song, "God Bless Our President."

Williams next introduced the speaker of the day, Hon. G. E. Carter, secretary-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. His subject "And He Went a Little Further" was very eloquently portrayed. He "very cheerfully explained how Hon. Marcus Garvey went a little further in organizing the Negroes In one great body; but as Pyter and Paul, he was thrown into prison and now suffering for his people all over the world.

PLEASE STATE HOW MANY TREATMENTS YOU WANT Name CEIBA- MARIANAO, CUBA On Sunday, November 25th the Setha Mariano Division of the U. N. I. A. and A. C. L. held a mass meeting in which the three divisions of the Province of Havana participated. This meeting was planned in our local convention in August of this year. Liberty Hall was filled to capacity. Seated on the rostrum were the presidents of the Havana Division and the Guanabacoa Division, also the executive officers of these divisions. Pathosism ran high, as all anxiously awaited the voice of the Hon. R. A. Perrin, president in opening. The meeting began OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey THE SPIRIT OF GIVING THE spirit of giving is in life are busy hunting gift ones.

And perils and races will exchange this hardness of race or color, will live in another, and usher in the reign who came to redeem fallen man. THE spirit of giving is in the air and people in all walks of life are busy hunting gifts for friends, relatives and loved ones. It is the spirit of the Wise Men from the East who came bearing gifts to the infant Jesus, that is emulated today; the spirit of rejoicing and making others happy. While we are on the gift hunt let us endeavor to secure the most useful presents that can be put into service by the recipients and be well appreciated. Don't give for the mere sake of giving; it is a waste of money and energy; but give so that the recipient can murmur exultantly, "How thoughtful!" When we think of those dear to us, let us not forget the poor and needy; there is more satisfaction to be had from the grateful thanks of the latter than in the exchange of gifts among friends. The sick and bereaved also should not be forgotten in our mad rush for pleasure. A word of cheer may work wonders in a sick room. A simple card may let some sorrowing person feel that "after all I am not forgotten." It is the example of the man Christ that should be our guide, not only at this season of the year, but all through life—the feeling of doing good for all humanity. To some of us, Christmas means a round of parties, getting intoxicated and over-eating; then we say "we are celebrating." Friends, this is a mistaken idea, and gets us nowhere, but in bed with a bad headache or indigestion the morning after the night before. But the fellow who remembers his fellow men and shares his "cheer" with them, whether financially or otherwise, is he who feels indeed happy when he visualizes all those whom he makes happy and the many prayers that reach heaven, asking God to bless the giver. Scatter cheer, as you go along and enter into the spirit of the season in the right way, remembering that "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Those of us who are separated from our families, should not forget the home folks. They are at least expecting a card from you. Select it now, mail it early and let them know you are thinking of them, although "you can't come across." The gift of good will does not cost anything, yet it is priceless. Pass it along to your neighbors after your home has been well-supplied. And perhaps the day will come when nations and races will exchange this most perfect gift, and mankind, regardless of race or color, will live in peace and harmony one with another, and usher in the reign of the Prince of Peace—the Christ who came to redeem fallen man. NOTES OF INTEREST Outlawing Submarines A Farce Outlasting this or that instrument of war-making has its appeal to the imagination. No doubt, if the outlawing were genuine and were carried out honestly it might mean the elimination of some of the horrors of that particular brand of insanity which war most certainly is. But something more is needed to achieve that end than campaise. It will be recalled, for instance, that steps were taken this past summer at Geneva to outlaw poison gas from war. Yet every single one of the signatories of the agreement is busy today experimenting to find more hideous and efficient poison gas for use in warfare—Boston Globe. $500 Reward If I ward If I Fail to Grow Hair Root Hair Is a scientifio vegetab hair root and Aloe Oi external, other positive fore making the most Hair Root ferching hair to grow nate cases.

Woman's Attire Mere Habit If the women of Turkey have abandoned the veil, and the women of India are abandoning pasha, the women of the West will be argued with in vain to retrace their steps, and particularly because here in the West the new fashion embody no such break with tradition. Our modestly standards in dress have largely been artificial. Satirists have long wanted to know why something that was modest in the ballroom is immmodest on the street curb, and why the proper thing on the bathing beach is the improper thing in the subway. It is largely habit. No one has ever considered the short kilt, of the peasant woman in her national costume to be immoder. That short skirt should be no less proper behind the shop counter and in the business office.

Unresolved for Dandruff. POOR NEGROES OWN 47,000 CHURCHES IN AMERICA Walt Carmon, writing in the Daily Worker, gives us some interesting data on the Negro and the Church. While we believe that the Church is a mess necessary adjunct to the life of any human being, yet we feel that if the Negro would pay as much attention to this material needs as he does to his spiritual needs, the race would be better off today and command more respect and regard from a materialistic, selfish, world. Since we have in America a church to every 256 Negroes, which is more than enough, our preachers should be fair-minded enough to start building factories and find other means of employment for their flock. Because the white employer's heart may turn overnight, and what will happen—starving, jobless Negroes and stained glass windows in grand stone churches! The following is an extract from Mr. Carmon's article: "What labor has failed to do, the Negro church has done: It organized the Negro. How strongly it blinds him can be seen in the fact that there is a church to every 256 Negroes in the country. The church gives him his ideas, gets his energy and takes his slaved-for-earnings-for-capital. Belong to More than One Church "There are today in the United States, with a total of two million Negroes, approximately 47,000 churches with a membership of 5,000,000. The number of churches compared to their membership and the total population, point to a strong; peasant for privilege to belong to even more than one church—a religious dual unionism, one could call it." "Add to the number of churches the 46,000 Sunday schools with some 30,000 pupils, and one begins to realize the enormity of the influence of the Negro church. Here is a giant obstacle to progress, with property estimated as nearly a hundred million dollars taken from the pockets of the deluded, trusting Negro worker, who even today in the south, where four-thirds of the Negroes live, is paid the boggy wage of one to three dollars a day. "In Chicago alone, a city with the fourth largest Negro population in the world, a survey taken in 1920 showed 15 churches in an area populated by 92,000 Negroes—a church to every 614 Negroes! This all parvading influence of the church among Negro workers is indeed surprising. For after all, the heaven that the Negro church promises is a white one! A Jim Crow heaven, where a Negro will "keep his place" as in a Louisiana village. Explanations to this puzzling problem are being asked often these days by Negro workers as attested by the letters carried only the other day by a leading Negro journal. 57 Varieties "Despite competing units, the Negro church has its highly developed and centralized body. Of the remarkably high percentage of churches to the population, about 25,000 churches, or well over half of the total number are of the baptist church ("national convention," "free will" and "primitive" baptists) with a membership of about 3,250,000, which would include more than one out of every four Negroes in the country. The methodist church with its 57—more or less—varieties is next in size. Some 14,000 churches belong to this denomination with a membership of approximately 1 million and a half. "These are the most influential bodies, binding the Negro to his class interests. But in addition to these there are many others, among them: the churches of 'living god', ' evangelical' 'Zionist' and—the catholic church. "Even among Negroes the catholic church has held claim to a membership of some 250,000 with a parochial school attendance of 22,000 Negro children, and a good many more at its 134 lower and 15 Negro industrial and high schools. "Strange as it may seem up to the present time, the salvation army has made but little progress among Negroes despite many efforts to reach them. "In addition to the Negro churches there are also 639,326 Negro members of white churches—an interesting figure to be sure," when compared with Negro membership in the mixed trade unions!" Our nation probably will be saved, for a few years at least, by the young men who cannot go to a college or a university. Manhood is the ideal that is being overlooked in our educational system. We are trying to pollish an article that is venerated. Give me an oak tree with the bark on it. There was a time when a father, realizing that his son was not up to standard, picked out a school that was known to be hard-boiled: A master of arts or a doctor of philosophy is now a boy whose parents have enough money to keep him in college until the professors are tired of looking at him. When I sit in a classroom and look at a male student who hides his mental weakness and moral unfitness behind a cost of faux powder and confection. Wonder what lay our civilization is headed by. Dr. J. W. Fisher. MEXICO COPIES FRANCE WITH EASY DIVORCES MEXICO COPIES FRANCE WITH EASY DIVORCES Under the Federal statutes of Mexico a foreigner enjoys all the rights of a citizen in respect to actions at law, including suits for divorce. Sonora has gone still further, authorizing suits against non-resident defendants by means of personal service "or, each other, means or mode of service as may be authorized by the laws of the State or place where the defendant resides or may be found." As many States in the American Union provide for service by publication, it becomes possible to publish the notice of a divorce action and then prosecute the action in Sonora. When service has been made upon the defendant by any of the means that are legal in his place of residence, the Mexican court grants sufficient time for him to answer to the complaint. Ordinarily this delay does not involve more than thirty days. Corroboration of charges may be established "by witnesses in open court, by depositions or sworn statement" taken without the country by order of the court . . . or by other documentary evidence of such facts" The Sonora statutes provide for two classes of divorce. The first, relating to a decree by mutual consent, sets forth that the petition must be "signed by both parties alleging incompatibility and a desire by both parties to end the marriage relation." Under the second clause a divorce may be had upon grounds set forth in the civil code and without agreement. These grounds include adultery, abandonment of the conjuginal home by either party for six months and extreme cruelty. The second marriage of a divorced person is prohibited for 300 days of separation from the first husband and wife, either before or after divorce. Thus Senora has extended to citizens and allows the broadest divorce privileges on the continent, with the possible exception of Yucatan, another Mexican State. Although the Yucatan decrees have been set aside in several instances by American courts, it is believed that the Senora decrees will have higher standing when brought to issue. Treaties between Mexico and the United States provide for mutual recognition of equal rights. These treaties are maintained to the letter there apparently is no reason why a Mexican decree should not have all the force of one obtained at home. But it also is true that American courts are jealous of their jurisdiction over American citizens and many times have emphasized that they will permit no other judicial bodies to rule upon the status of such citizens. That attitude is particularly evident in New York. Uncertain Status By reason of these contradictions the whole question of divorce obtained in foreign countries is involved in great uncertainty. But the worst penalty to be expected of a person divorced where service is made by publication and the defendant does not appear in person or by attorney would be a second suit for divorce by the defendant in the first action. A wife deferred free in Somalia, where there had been no such appearance, might be sued at home by her husband and divorced, although she had obtained a decree in the Mexican State. But any criminal) implications for bigamy, in the event of a second marriage, would be removed in practice, because courts generally recognize that a decree of divorce reveals the divorced person of guilt intent. Where all parties appear in the litigation the courts usually hold them to the letter of the decree, because, so to speak, they have had their day in court. The principles of law and all of the uncertainties surrounding Mexican divorce actions apply with equal force to decrees from French courts. Many well-known persons have obtained decrees in France that may not be honored by their courts at home, especially the courts of New York. Property values amounting to many millions are likely to be brought in question because of their distortions and the harrings that have followed.

Walker Mfg. Co. 200 N. Way St. Atlanta, Georgia FACTS ON LOCARNO PACT While we junksettings and the jollifications in celebration of the Locarno conference are at their height, it is well to come down to earth and, unpopular though that practice be, to study the facts. The Locarno agreements do not mean what they are trumpeted to mean—the advent of international peace. They are merely another stage, in the long struggle for the balance of power in Europe. They are also an effort to advance the so-called League of Nations into new life. They take no account of the oppressed peoples; they are not concerned with the liberation of mankind. Their chief purpose is to enlist as much of Europe as possible into one combination of international bullies, and to convert the League of Nations into its headquarters. It is obvious that Germany's entrance into the League cannot alter the character of that discredited body, which England and France dominate between them. It merely widens the ambition of its hypocrisies. For if the League of Nations allows Britain and France, despite their far-flung possessions, to retain their membership justice cannot at the same time take its place at the League's councils. France is surely the proof that nothing may be expected from the League but the diplomacy of tyrants. France holds Syria under mandate from the League. It is responsible to the League for its actions in that country. Yet the League has watched the crucifixion of Damascus and the thousand horrors visited upon the Syrian patriots, and has done nothing but smile and enjoy it all. France spends the money it gives to America on shilling the unprotected towns in its mandated territories. It devotes the wealth with which America dowered her in the war to the raising up in every million subject to its influence of pro-French tyrannies, armed to the teeth at America's expense. The locarne agreements will not change and have no inflection of changing, all that. It is true, that Britain shows that peace has descended upon the earth at last; true that France talks again of the "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity" which long ago became empty sounds. The fact of the oppressed nations still belies the wine-filled speeches of Europe's antiquated statesmanship which still always a peace profitable to itself and as far removed from justice and democracy as the selfish interests of the principals demand. NEW ORLEANS (FE) - For the first time in the history of the courts of New Orleans a white man has been found guilty of the murder of a Negro. Southernera stand astray at the jury that dared render such a verdict. About a year ago Frank De Rocha, a white blacksmith, entered a street car near the naval station with several companions after a night out. In a rear seat wore two powerful Negro citizens—Ernest and Joseph Baptiste—on their way to work. De Rocha, remarking that he felt "like killing a couple of niggers this morning," drew a revolver and fire point blank. Joseph Baptiste was killed at the first shot Ernest, the brother, hogged the white man not to shoot again, when De Rocha tried again at Ernest, who died a few hours later. The State's attorney asked for a concession without capital punishment. Efforts are being made to appeal and carry the case to the Supreme Court to prevent a president that it is unsafe for a white man to kill a Negro in the South. London Women Pleased By Revival of Mittens Always on the lookout for novelty in fashion, London's feminine population seems to be pleased by the revival of a Victorian mode. This is the wearing of mittens instead of long-sleeved gloves. Women already have adopted mittens for theatre goers, and the absence of gloved finger tips makes the handling of cigarettes less risky than formerly. The modern mittens are made of flimy lace or silk, in tins that harmonize with the wearer's gown. Many of the more expensive pairs are of gold or silver thread, with small precious stones interwoven.

Dietetics may be defined shortly as the science which treats of foods and feeding. It is to be noted that these words are employed in their most expansive sense to include all alimentary substances which can be 'or', are customarily used by man for nourishing or aiding in the nutrition of the body. As the fundamental object of food is to build up and maintain the body in a condition capable of meeting the demands made upon it by daily life, our first duty will therefore be to obtain an accurate conception of the composition, from a chemical aspect of the human body. DIETETIC PRINCIPLES.—The body is in many respects comparable to an engine, like a piece of mechanism it requires, with energy to supply the muscles, etc., with energizing power for the various bodily activities, and it likewise needs building materials to repair loss from wear and tear. For the latter purpose food containing nitrogen is necessary, the proteid of which the muscles and other tissue are composed being replaceable only by fresh nitrogen—containing protein. For the necessary supply of energy, on the other hand, protein would suffice, but, as its use for this purpose would throw upon the kidneys and other excretory organs the necessity of setting rid of a large residue, fats and carbohydrates (including starch and sugars) which contain only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are more convenient for the purpose. In addition to these three varieties of food water must be taken in sufficient quantity to make up for the loss by the urine, sweat, etc., and also various salts, of which, however, there is always a surplus in the food. A healthy man of average size and weight doing a hard day's work, gets rid in his excretions, of effete products corresponding to some 120 grams (4 ounces) of protein each day and should take just sufficient protein food to make this up. If he takes too little, the muscular tissues grow smaller and less capable of resisting disease. If he takes too much the digestive and excretory organs are apt to give way under the strain, and various diseases result. Up to a certain point, however, the excretory organs can overtake a surplus of protein, and expelling it from the body in greater amount, maintain what is called the "nitrogenous equilibrium."

A balance less THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Mr. Powell's Speech Gave Much Encouragement To the Editor of The Negro World: It is my opinion that the speech delivered by Mr. John Powell recently at Liberty Hill furnished food for thought for Negroes all over the world. The attitude of the American white man toward the Negro is the same as most white people in various parts of the world. The black man is even impressed and discriminated against in Africa, his native home. Members of the Universal Negro improvement Association must have received much encouragement and consolation from Mr. Powell's speech because it proved that at least some white people in America and beyond the detritus which the Honorable Murray Garvey is trying to teach the Negro throughout the world. In spite of all that has been done by enemies to kill the spirit and hope of the association, the insisted followers of the Honorable Marvus Garye are carrying on. Each Week. The Negro World brings fresh inspiration in the message of our great leader who sends rays of sunshine from his cell in Atlanta prison. The Negro has no legal representation anywhere. Big if Negroes will heed the vows of this ingenuous leader of the U. N. L. A. the day will soon arrive when this order of things will be changed. Let his all do what lies in our power to hasten this day. Let us pray for the speedy release of the Honorable Marvus Garye so that he may continue unhampered by his great work of preparation in his profession. WILLIAM F. CLARKE. Cristobal, Canal Zone. To the Editor of The Negro World: The Universal Negro Improvement Association continues to put new life new hope, new aspirations into his hearts and minds of the Negro. It has given us a new determination. It has brought information concerning the past and present history of the race to thousands of Negro all over the world who had not this information and had no way to obtain it. The spreading of certain information is a source of inspiration to many members of this race who had been discouraged before the coming of the Honorable Marcus Garvey with his program of Negro emancipation. The world is taking the Negro into account in a manner never before witnessed by our people. The Negro is realizing that the world will never race him seriously unless he takes himself seriously.

The Honorable Marcus Garvey has lifted the vell of doubt and given us a program which ought to cure this condition. He is giving us resolution for the economic, industrial and commercial problems of the Negro. He is pointing a way to a better day. In spite of this many Negroes are too disinterested in themselves and their race to heed the call of this great leader. The service of the Honorable Marcus Garvey to the race is such that it cannot be measured or even estimated: The Negro race can never repay him for what he is doing for it. The goal of our great organization is Africa's redemption. Mr. Garvey is asking us to do all in our power merely, financially and otherwise, to put this program over. The enemies of Garveyism may do everything in their power, but they will never succeed in changing the course or affecting the success of the U.N.L.A. to any marked degree. The millions of members and supporters of the U.N.L.A. are recognizing no leaders but God and the Honorable Marbus Garvey in whose mind this great movement was born. Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association realize that success must be bought at a very high price. Great and numerous will be the sacrifices of those who want the program to succeed. Some of our faithful members have already paid the price along with the Honorable Marbus Garvey. Others are yet to come. But let us unite our forcey and search lobby on. The Leader is in Atlanta prison, but his inspiration is still with us. We are yet able to draw courage and strength to carry on the fight until he returns to us. W. ELLINGTON BARNES Havana, Cuba. "Up to Us to Keep Ball of Freedom Rolling" To the Editor of The Negro World: It is a great help to read in the Negro World each week how the brave ones in the U. N. L.

We are so proud of the Honorable Marcus Garvey and those men and women with him who are making great sacrifices for a great end. It is a wonderful thing to put the 牙契子 Negroes throughout the world to think- ing for themselves. Mr. Garvey has done this. He has started the ball of Negro freedom to rolling. It is up to us to keep it rolling. CORA JACKSON. Tutwiler, Miss. A Word of Praise For-the Parent Body To the Editor of The Negro World: The go-workers, of the Honorable Marcus Garvey at headquarters are to be congratulated on the great effort which has been made in the past months to carry on successfully the work of the association. Their efforts greatly strengthen the determination and confidence of the membership most of the members realize that it is no easy matter to carry on the work successfully in the face of the great discouragements and setbacks which constantly confront our workers. Many believed that the Universal Negro Improvement Association would come to an end when its leader was imprisoned. It is to our credit that we are carrying valiantly on in the absence of Mr. Garvey. The membership should try to understand the hand-rails of those who have had to take hold so suddenly and who are continuing to do their cheerful best in the face of much discouragement. J. H. R. GLEAVES, Winston-Salem, N. C. Black Men Should Respond To Call of Black Africa To the Editor of The Negro World: Every so often we read of white people going to Africa to do certain things. When I read of these things, I wonder what other Negroes think when they read these reports. The white man seems to think that there are some things to be done in Africa. They be come missionaries and pioneers, in building up what they call the "dark" continent. one drew conclusions from the attitude of most Negroes toward Africa, it would be hard to believe that it is inhibited by black people who need help. It would seem that nobody would feel mop obligated to help black people than their own brothers and sisters scattered throughout the world. But most Negroes stand idly by and remain unmoved by the appeals that Africa has out from time to time. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is dedicated to the redemption of Africa and placing the black man in a position where he may guide and direct his own destiny without constantly appealing to the mercy of anyone. Race pride should make Negroes join this association. No one who can be independent should want to be. MANUEL J. GEORGE New Orleans, La. If you can tell it from DIAMOND send it back!

Among the remedies which Mr. Lewis proposed for these causes of crime were the substitution of a religion of performance for one of negation, the simplification of government and the elimination of obsolete laws and legal procedure. He declared that the nation's annual bill for crime amounted to somewhere between four and ten billion dollars. He recommended a thoroughgoing study of the criminal law, as thorough as the study of civil law now under way, and national and international action to control the use of firearms, automobiles and narcotics. "Some people cannot be trusted with the devices of modern civilization," he said. Miss Edna R. J. Hatche, Superintendent of the New Jersey State Home for Girls, speaking before the conference, urged the use of small family cottage groups in institutions for juveniles. "When the State, through its institutions for juveniles, is compelled to take the place of a parental," she said, "then the need for small family groups with trained officers in charge of each cottage is evident."

La tierra de nuestros antepasados continente de luz— Reconocimiento de si mismo—La propaganda malsana no ha de interrumpir nuestra marcha hacia el mejor miento—Cooperemos con la dirección eficiente— Patrocinemos el sano propósito de nuestro movimiento Conciudadanos de la razas: He de extender de nuevo hacia vosotros mi mas expresivas gracias, por los grandes esfuerzos que estais haciendo para recavar de los poderes constituidos mi libertad y salir de esta prisión donde me encuentro confinado, debido a la persecución de mis enemigos. Deseo manifestaros además que sea lo que fuere, siempre atesoraré en lo mas recordóito de mi alma la alta apreciación que habeis manifestado, por el servicio que con fortuna he prestado a la causa de nuestra liberación, que indudablemente vendrá a ser un alarde lógico para el levantamiento de esa maltratada raza nuestra. En este mensaje, deseo hablaros acerca del continente de la luz—Africa. Los otros pueblos desearian haceros creer que Africa es el continente oscuro; pero esa Africa es hoy el continente mas reluciente, es la parte de mas brillo situada en la faz del globo; es el continente de la luz, por consiguiente no hay nada de oscuro acerca de Africa. Esa grandiosa tierra esta tan alumbrada que atrae la atención del mundo, como la luna, como el sol atrae al mundo por su brillante. Si, Africa esta llena de luz; os digo pues que hay luz y mucho brillo en esa tierra irredenta, porque alli hay oro; Africa esta llena de luz, porque el cobre, el estaño, el hierro, el carbón, se encuentra alli, atesorado en las montañas de su rico suelo, veneros de riqueza inextinguibles que el hombre blanco ambiciona, para afienzar su poderio y su decantada superioridad. El hombre blanco busca la luz y he aquí el porque le vemos mirar hacia Africa con codicia y grocera ambición, queriendo poseerla a todo transe, sin fijarse en el modo y manera de los métodos que emplee para conseguir su propósito de dominio. Esa es la tierra de mis antepasados; jamas la cedieron a nadie y por mis derechos legales y morales es que ella me pertencece. Yo no discutiré con el hombre blanco acerca del Canadá; no discutiré con el un minuto siquiera haciendo esfuerzos para convencerle de que America es mia; no trabaré discusión alguna con el inglés para hacerle ver los derechos que tendría como tal; pero si gastaré todas las energias que me restan en polémica con cualquier hombre que desee hablar y rebajar el Africa, porque esa tierra es mia, absolutamente mía. Dejemos al canadiense que posea el Canadá, dejemos a los americanos que posean su America y a nosotros que se nos deje el Africa porque es nuestra y nada más que nuestra. Tomaremos posesión de ella e informaremos al Dios Todopoderoso cual es la razon para ello. En nuestro esfuerzo para recuperar nuestra tierra bendita, hemos de vencer todos los obstáculos que se nos presenten. Llevearemos hacia la inferioridad del cero la propaganda malsana que intenta retenernos en estado de sumisión. Tal propaganda ha hecho mas daño para defraudar las buenas intenciones de las razas y las naciones, que cualquier otra exhibición pública haya podido hacer. La propaganda es un medio usado por los pueblos en organización para convertir a los otros en contra de su deseo. Nuestro pueblo sufre mas que ningún otro pueblo, mas que ninguna otra raza en el mundo, por esa panfleteria insulsa que tiende a destruir nuestras esperanzas, destruir nuestra ambición, es decir, nuestra confianza en la vida que tan cara nos cuesta y tan penosamente arrastramos en el presente. Nuestro movimiento esta rodeado con ese dime y diré que nosotros enten deremos, toda vez que coronemos nuestra obra con los principios ya sentados, para la reorganización política social de nuestra raza. Para destruir la utilidad de nuestra organización, para prevenir su exito, para nublar la esperanza de libertad de esta raza nuestra, esa misma propaganda ha sido organizada hacia el efecto de causar confusión y division entre nuestras huestes y su resultado es el triunfo de los planes de aquellos que siempre intentan sostenernos en esta lastimosa situación, hasta poder exterminarnos por completo. Nuestro movimiento ayuda al negro para que labore en no otro sentido que no sea el enaltecimiento del individuo y de la raza. Este no le enseña a descartar cualquier oportunidad que le sea provechosa y por el contrario se le exhorta y predica constantemente que aproveche toda ventaja que hacia el venga. Muchos de nuestros elementos argullen que el negro puede usar su riqueza industrial y su boleto eleccionario para forzar un debido reconocimiento del gobierno del cual es factor importante; perp nosotros debemos enteder que ese gobierno esta compuesto por un pueblo que nos es hostil y la mayoría de ese mismo pueblo, dicta la paura que ha de seguir ese mismo gobierno por ellos constituo. Nada mas lógico que dicho gobierno sea impotente para protejer la medida y manera de ser de nuestra raza. Si el negro tuviera que vivir en este lado del Atlántico por espacio de quinientos años mas, el se encontraria todavía falta de número para contrarrestar la superioridad de las otras razas. El prejuicio en su contra se acabará solamente cuando este venga a hacerse un poder lo suficientemente fuerte, siendo el respetado y tomado en consideración por las dualles poblaciones del mundo. Con mi mejor deseo por el éxito de nuestra causa, tengo el honor de ser. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1925 Spanish Section Francia hacía la dictadura? A la hora en que se escribe este artículo, han fracasado los cuatro primeros personajes encargados por el presidente Doumergue de formar ministerio en Francia. La caída del gabinete Painlevé, derribado practicamente por el voto de los veinticinco comunistas de la Camara, en la discusión de los proyectos fiscales para vencer la crisis financier creó al presidente de la república y a la república misma un/conflicto formidable. El parlamiento francés, para los desapasionados observadores de dentro y fuera del país, ha llegado a la misma situación de esterilidad de cunciones, de desconexión con la realidad y de peligrosa demagogia que caracterizo las ultimas etapas de los parlamentos italiano y español. Y que dejo inerne a la famosa Duma rusa, creada para poner en marcha la democracia al caer el Imperio, ante los ataques del comunismo de Lenine y Trotaki que, bizantinamente, quiso combatir, con discurso, el bien intenciónado pero iluso Kerenski. Dividese la caimara francesa ahora, al parecer, en derechas e izquierdas. Pero esto es solo una division nominal; en realidad hay subdivisiones de subdivisiones, en grupos y grupillos, que atomizan la autoridad de la caimara y hacen imposible la concentración del poder en un gobierno fuerte, homogeneo y respectable. Los gabinetes, para mantenerse, tienen que contar con la complacencia de cada jefe de grupo; y estos, a su vez, dependen de la voluntad de su canarilla de diputados para sostener o atacar al golferino. En tal madeja de compromisos e incompatibilidades, como la que envuelve a radicales, socialistas, conservadores, republicanos, monarquicos y communistas, los grandes problema nacionales no se sitúen, ni se resuelven, según las conveniencias directas, rentes y timidas del país. Sino que hay que seguir la lnea de menor resistencia política y aprobar las medidas que menos fricción provoquen entre los intereses de los parlamentarios. De ahí la situación actual. Francia está al borde de una crisis amazadora. Su cruelité va camino del Alemania en sus postrimierías de la guerra, el cambio del franco se detrumba, el capital nacional huaje al extranjero y al dinero extranjero no se interesa en valores francéses. La vida se encarece pavorosamente en Francia. Nadie sabe adonde se va. Pero los políticos continuan en sus luchas privadas, en sus sesiones tumultuosas de retorica esteril y en sus maniobras para disputarse el poder. Lo que salga de este caos es imposible de predecir. Pero es visible, por declaraciones de los mismos primates republicanos, que la república está en peligro. Es unánime la impresión de que se necesita la "voluntad únicla" la "dirección únicla" y el patriotismo sincero para salvar el país. Si la lucha entre el interés del país y el interés de la república llega a hacerse más definida que en estos momentos, si se trata de salxar a Francia aunque la república padezca, parece poco dudoso cuál será el partido que tome el pueblo francés—La Prensa, N.Y. La edad del faraon El rey Tutankhamen era un muchacho. *El examen del pie en su中介ia dentro de su tumba en el valle de los reyes, revelo que sólo tenia quince años de edad. Las manos del chico estaban cruzadas sobre el pecho y sobre ellas habia dos grandes escarabajos de oro. A su lado, una vez colocado en su magnificente urna, de oro, habia dos espadas y dos cuchillos de mano, todos de oro. Los arqueólogos están mistificados con el hecho de que no hubiera papyrus en su urna, pues los antiguos egipcios creían que debía haber algún escrito, al ledo de todo cadáver, de manera que el viaje del alma a través de los más altos reinos del sol, tuviera una defensa contra los peligros de los espiritus malos del malo alla. Este es el descubrimiento más extrafoque que han hecho los excavadores, según informe de Luxor. El más alla, según la tradicción egipica, estaba plena de espíritus malos y peligrosos sin cuento. Con los papyrus se podrian evitar espiros peligros y pasar a las regiones calestas donde Amena-Ra, el dios sol, reinaba en todo esplendor. Todavía no ha comenzado la labor de los rayos X sobre la mama del puquero Paradón, pues les envolturas estin demasiado adheridas, un mascote que se cree fuera formado con las libaciones fimbres de los dofentes. La labor anterior de los excavadores ha demostrado que la urnea co de oro, un lajo que abren puna a todo lo cusco al mundo adulto y madre. Los Británicos detestan la revolución En ciertos centros políticos de Londres es donde solamente se oye hablar de revolución o de irrupción en el estado, que llevará al comunismo al poder y tratará de emular los hechos del soviet, ruso. El británico odia la revolución porque ha disfrutado de su libertad política por centenares de años y nada lo conturbar más que una, revuelta innecesaria. El hecho de que el principe de Gales gastara dos millones y medio del tesoro ingles en su ultimo viaje por Africa y America, ha pasado desapeschido por el pueblo. Por el contrario, el dia de su regreso centenares de miles de personas permanecieron por mas de dos horas bajo la lluvia para darle la vivenida. Aglomerados alrededor del palacio le aclamaron hasta que salió al balcon acompañado de la familia real para devolver el saludo. Otro hecho de un año ha, fue el ascenso al poder de un gobierno haborista, el cual nunca dio demostraciones de táctica, revoluciónaria. Este expulsó de entre sus huestes a varios communistas y recientemente se ha rehusado considerar la solicitud de estos pidiendo su readmission. El intento de distribuir panfletos revolucionarios entre elementos del ejército británico, ha tenido un resultado fueno para sus promotores. Este asunto fue dilucidado por las tropas mismas, conda resultante de varios heridos y otros tantos contusos. Los agentes de Scotland Yard vigilan de cerca a los comunistas residentes en el país, principalmente a aquellos que sospechan en conexión con la capital rusa de donde reciben medios para su propaganda. Según investigación de dichos agentes el número de comunistas en la Gran Bretagna asciende a cinco mil; pero se necesitarían muchos centenares de miles más y el transcuro de algun tiempo, para que la influencia de su política sentara base en el sentiniento del pueblo británico. Denúnciase el despotismo *Apresar del simultnero de cuestiones domésticas a resolver mientras el congreso prepara su nueva reunión, la administración de Washington esta algo conturbada por las noticias sobre el creciente malestar en la isla de Puerto Rico. La critica hecha al regimen del actual gobernador, la tension económica causada por los bajos precios del azucar, la escasez géreral de empleo y las acusaciones de traudes políticos, ha hecho difícil para el gobierno manejar la situación. Los representantes, progresistas haran una tentativa en el congreso para sustentar los cargos de mala administración en la mencianada isla y forzar una investigación. Los amigos del presidente han llegado de la isla con informes nada agradables, los cuales auguran tiempos dificiles para la actual administración. El departamento de guerra de este pais, cuya jurisdiction se extiende a la isla, se opone a reformas radicales en concepto de que la dificultad principal estriba en el exceso de población, pero las organizaciones obreras de alli, respaldadas por la A. F. of L., han presentado un memorial al presidente aleganado que lo que alli exite es simplement un despotismo organizado. El presidente ha considerado la demanda de los trabajadores, al efecto de que la administración de la isla fuera transferida al departamento del interior, nombrando una comisión conjunta que vaya a investigar la situación en Puerto Rico, para que esta informe y haga las recomendaciones necesarias para subsanar el malestar existente. Culpan a este país El periodico *La Prensa* de Euenos Aires comenta la controversia presentada ultimamente en la cuestion Tacna y Arica entre el Peru y Chile. Dicho diario previene contra el pesimismo indebido en cuanto al resultado del plebiscite, considerando que este pais tiene en parte la culpa de la situación en Arica. En este orden de ideas declara que log Estados Unidos no parecen comprender bien la calidad de las personas con quienes estan tratando. El diario sugiere ademas que el representante del arribito y presidente de la comisión es am gran soldado y ciudadano, pero que necesita ayudantes de reconocida capacidad tanto judicial como social. China reclama Luego de haber reclamado contra el vapor norteamericano Meiren, alegando que hundido dos barcos japones, siendo esto la causa de que se ahogaran dos chinchos. la cancillería de China a presentado óta reclamación a que pais, declarando que una guardia de la marina mató a dos chinas a hirro a otros movas. Magazine Section HEALTH IN HARLEM Work of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, Inc. BY THELMA E. BERLACK Everybody who purchases Christmas Spoils is a partner in the big campaign that seeks to educate the public in the prevention of tuberculosis. And the millions of men, women and children whose contributions may be 10 cents or $10, or $1,000, may feel that they are supporting a project stupendous in scope. That their interest and help toward preventing this sickness has been, of some avail is seen in the fact that in the past twenty years, the deaths from tuberculosis have been decreased from over 200 per 100,000 population to 94 per 100,000 (according to 1923 deathrate statistics). Our group, through the Harlem-Tuberculosis Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, is helping to make this possible. Therefore, learn something of the committee, its organization and work. In August, 1822, at the invitation of local citizens, the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee was organized. This interracial committee consists of physician, ministers, social workers, business men and others interested in health in Haplen. Heading the committee are Henry O. Harding, M.D., chairman; Mrs. Alab Thomas Smith, R.N., vice chairman; Mrs. Jane Brest, secretary, and Mrs. Mabel Doyle Keaton, R.N., executive secretary. The committee members include the following: Dr. P. E. Anderson, Mrs. Esther Archer, Mrs. Justin Bell, Mrs. Belie Davis, Thomas H. Brevett, Mrs. Blanch Glover, James H. Hubert, Miss Mary Lloyd, R.N. Dr. P. M. Murray, Dr. Leo Fitz Neason, Mrs. Grace R. Nail, Dr. C. A. Norman, Dr. Godfrey Nurse, Mrs. Edgar Parks, Dr. E. Kawhne, Mrs. E.J. Roberts, Dr. Jacob M. Ross, Mrs. Miss Emmett Rose, Rev. Marshall Shapiro, Dr. Monica Tess Smith, Frederick Townsend, Mrs. Hortense Warner, Mrs. J. Winfried, R.N. Dr. Louis T. Wright, Mrs. Katherine Wells Whipple, secretary of the Extension and Development Service of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association. Dental Clinic That Harlem might become an, even healthier and happier community, the North Harlem Dental Clinic was opened in August, 1924. In one year, 1,055 visit the patients who could not afford to go to private dentists, made 3,277 visits to the clinic. Nutrition Class In "Taking the joins out of health teaching," a nutrition class for children who are markedly underweight meets every Thursday. Miss J. bla Rohrerts, R. N., conducts the class in theory and practice. Every twelve weeks a new class is formed. The present class has fourteen boys and girls who receive instructions in the general care of the body, the value of exercise, good food, fresh air and plenty of sleep. When a child is graduated from the nutrition class and given a diploma she is eligible for the honor group—the Carrot Club. (Carrots make you beautiful. Eat them!) Strange to say, the graduates never want to leave the class. They try to find some pretext for returning, all of the graduates cry when told that they may visit but cannot be regular attendance to the class. Children are referred to the Harlem office by various health and care welfare agencies of Harlem, including the following: Department of Health, Harlem Hospital, Henry Street Nursing Service, New York Urban League, Charity Organization Society, Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor, North Harlem Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association, Association of Trade and Commerce and all agencies of Harlem Health Conference. Information Service Not only for those who have tuberculosis, but also for those who are desirous of obtaining general health information and advice, the Information Service stands ready to assist at all times. "Mrs. A. of Hoston," according to Mrs. 'Mabel Doyle Keaton, R. N., executive secretary of the committee, "heard her sister was here in a hospital suffering from tuberculosis. She went to Metropolitan Hospital, Welfare Island, in search of her sister, but no trace of her was found. Mrs. A. then apoke to a nurse from the Visiting-Nurse Service of the Henry Street Settlement, who referred her to the worker in the Hardem office. "On hearing Mrs. A.'s story, I asked for her sister's previous address. She knew it was on a certain street near Seventh avenue, but did not know the number. This tentative address is in the Harlem Hospital district, so I called the Harlem Tuberculosis Clinic. The worker in the clinic knew Helen B. and had sent her to a hospital in Long Island, the previous day. Thus Mrs. A. a stranger, found her sick sister." Christmas Soal Sale From November 27 to December 25 in the Christmas Real Sale campaign period, on which the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee depends for its support. The temporary address of the committee is 115 West 182d street. So buy your health plenty of them and make health in Harlem hotel. Know what is really going on in world politics to affect Le Negra. This wonderful book gives you a world of information and a life of inspiration. It is being discussed in diplomatic circles, and treasured by Negroes who love their race. A TROPICAL SCRUTINY Great changes, politicians assure, have taken place in the spirit of the age since the recent war. Literature, they add, inevitably reflects that change; otherwise it would not deserve recognition from the public. We are led toward D. H. Lawrence, Theodore Dreiser, Sinclair Lewis, James Joyce, Rebecca Wygst, May Sinclair, Mary Borden, and a host of other revolutionaries, to point the argument of advancement. We can only vote the evidence weak and unconvincing. An older generation of writers is supposed to have been too deeply in love with illusion to be honest. They saw life's multifarious truths only timemonthly, or recorded them through the body spectacles of romance. Made tongue-tied by convention, and woodwinkled by the blinkers derived from Mrs. Grundy, there was then such an inclination of suppression, resistance and fastidiousness that fiction dared On the other hand (we are gravely assured), the present age is utterly fearless and progressive. Men and women alike confront the facts of existence without shame, or without overdue respect. What they see they describe, and what they do not see they ignore. For good or ill they have made up their minds to give us reality. Freed from cowardly refusal and unuttered by unless denial, they have at last molded fiction into that perfect mirror which reflects without refraction, and which presents without either reserve or distortion. I wonder! The monthly parcel of books which reach an overseas worker like myself can be the only standard of measurement. They seem, these volumes, to point to for too much hysteria for health. Not do the magazines of the popular kind remove the suspicion that modern authors are too ambitious in their claims. I have read the magazines rather hesitantly of life—the whole chromatic scale of them. Red, blue, Yellow, and Green—all colors seem to be represented—but all indicate that the professional writer of fiction for the million trends very closely upon the footprints of his literary leaders. What impression emerges? One of unbounded amazement. Can the British and American citizen be so infatuated as to believe that these endless "yarns," either in the form of conte or serial, depict real life? Quite a number of them have for motive one or other aspect of tropical existence, the impact of White upon Black, the sexurge of a new environment on people born under the repressive conditions of civilization. They should impress overseas dwellers as singularly genuine. I believe that I know my West Africa fairly well. I ought to. It is exactly 25 years this month since I first set sail for the tropics. From the onset, I had quite firmly made up my mind that West Africa should be my home, civilization, as revealed to me during boyhood and adolescence, in a crowded city of the North of England, had presented to me only a travesty of happiness. There was neither room to breathe nor incentive to grow. My soul appeared definitely threatened with strangulation. (To be continued.)

Mr. Rawl estimates that less than half of this year's savings, or about $141,369,600, will be spent on Christmas presents. About $87,963,344, he says, will be deposited in savings and thrift accounts, $78,688,576 will go for insurance premiums and mortgage interests, $34,577,028 for taxes and $12,666,092 for fixed charges maturing in the holiday season. More than 6,800 banks are participating in the distribution, which will range in amounts from $12.50 to $1,000 and average $44.58. Massachusetts leads in per capita savings. The largest club is that of the Bank of the Manhattan Company in its thirty-four branches in Queens and Brooklyn. Its 66,000 members this year have saved $3,100,000. Navajo Indians Use Prairie Dogs for Food Indians on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona use prairie dogs for food and consequently object to the usual methods of killing these poils by the distribution of poison salts. They are willing, however, to co-operate with Government and State officials in eradication campaigns carried on by running water, down the prairie dog burrows after a heavy rain, forcing the rodents into the open where they can be caught or killed.
