TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES It's Organization That Wins It gives me untold pleasure to be able once again to address you in the name of this great race of ours. You must forgive me if I find it impossible to reply to the thousands of queries and expressions of goodwill which reach me in my prison cell from time to time. Know, however, that I am deeply grateful for the solicitude which you evince about my welfare and shall carry this to my grave as one of my most treasured memories. It is indeed good to know that time has not served to lessen the degree of affection which you held for me ever since the day when I came to labor with you. I desire this week to say a few words on organization. The wonderful force of organization is today making itself felt in every branch of human effort. Whether in industry, society, politics or war it is the force of organization that tells; hence, I can advise no better step toward racial salvation than organization among us. We have been harassed, trampled upon and belittled because of our unfortunate condition of disorganization. The disorganization of our society for hundreds of years made us easy; prey to those who sought benefit of human slavery, and with a similar disorganization we are bound to lose out in the great scramble of life for the survival of the fittest group. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is a movement that seeks unlimited racial union and co-operation. We desire to draw black humanity closer together than we have been before, for we realize that with East pulling against West, North pulling against South, there will be nothing left to us but utter ruin. We can well imagine ourselves as one great united people, having one aim, believing in one God and having one destiny. To see four hundred millions of us standing together as one man is the desire of those of us who lead the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It is true that twentieth century materialism has so scattered the interests of races and nations that the realization of human ideals becomes more remote, but we dare not sink or destroy holy principles because of the wantonness and soullessness of our age. The work that lies before us is not so much to identify... with the scattered purpose and greed of others, but to create for ourselves a central ideal and make our lives conform to it in the singling out of a racial life that shall know no end. It is unfortunate that we should find ourselves at this time the only disorganized group. Others have had the advantage of organization for centuries, so what seems to them unnecessary from a racial point of view becomes necessary to us who have had to labor all along under the disadvantage of being scattered without a racial aim or purpose. The Negro, surrounded as he is, has no other alternative than going forward in the atmosphere of racial self-interest, working for the generation of the present and providing for those of our posterity. In the service of race the Universal Negro Improvement Association finds its program, and for its advocacy or promotion we offer no apology. No one can be as true to you as you can be to yourself. Organize, know where your welfare lies and reach out and secure it. That is my message to you. PUSHING NEGROES TO THE WALL IN PHILADELPHIA Low Wages, High Rent, Filthy Lodgings Combine to Make the Lot of the Negro in Philadelphia. Miserable - Organization the Only Remedy By I, A. K. Worker Correspondent in The Chinese Daily Worker PHILADELPHIA, Pa. I have been living for quite some time in a section of the city here populated by Negroes. This section is made up of dirty, alleyways and courts, breeding nests for disease. The houses are damp and water soaked, most of them with one or no telltale. The building inspectors say nothing about these miserable conditions, because they are the paid lackeys of big real estate firms which own entire streets of houses. The greatest worry of the Negro is root day. Most of the Negro works for the city, building the Broad street subway, the new Delaware bridge, site of the sequentennial, roads, etc., making the city ready, for the money-making exposition to start July 4. 1926. The average, ware of these workers is from $1 to $25 per week. From this huge sum many must pay $40 monthly rent. There are no tenant rights in Philadelphia. This is a city of homes—for a few. If a worker asks for improvements the agent of the landlord tells him to get out or threatens him with the loss of his $21 "city" job. Since the rent takes so much out of the Negro's pocket he must severely economize on his food and clothes. The Negroes buy of necessity the cheapest food they can get. When the food markets all over the city get through selling all the cream of the food to the cooks of the capitalists living on Kittenhouse square, they send it down here and sell it to the Negroes. And the food is not sold over marble counters when it gets there. These little business men, the semi-proletariat, who scrape a living by the skin of their teeth and work 18 hours for it, cannot afford marble counters. The food is kept in dirty trays like so much stop. The bad food, poor clothing and shelter cause the numerous diseases that are constantly raging in this section and in other section of the city. I know hundreds of Negroes, and I may safely say that three out of every ten are suffering from consumption, cancer and other serious diseases. I know a lot of them. The bottle flows freely on Poplar street. The moonshine is made by large bootlegging firms on the outskirts of the city and is shipped to their agencies in all sections of the city. These firms make different grades of moonshine. The worst grade is sent to this section. It is nothing but a slow poison that is killing hundreds of Nerrocs in the city of Philadelphia. Even insurance companies will not grant Negroes insurance, their death rate is so high. These miserable conditions are all due to the fact that the Negro is the most exploited and oppressed worker End A Cold Within 24 hours You can end a cold in 24 hours in the right way.

They must organise to fight against all forms of race discrimination, such as Jim Crowism, segregation and for a better living wage. Prince Aage, of Denmark, captain in the French Foreign Legion, made his New York debut as a lecturer on Jan. 15 when he addressed an audience in the balroom of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. He spoke of his three years' experience in Morocco with the Foreign Legion, during which time he saw a great deal of field action against the Rifles. After sketching briefly the historical background of the Moroccan situation, the prince plunged into a vivid narrative of his own experiences in northern Africa. In addition to constant danger from enemy tribesmen, he said, the French soldiers must constantly contend, with almost unbelievable hardships caused by extremes of temperature, the barrenness of parts of the country, and extremely uncertain weather. "Western peoples should not underrate the importance of the Moroccan struggle," he declared. "It is not simply the problem of a nation subduing its rebellious subjectia. In essence it is the conflict of white men and Arabs, of Western civilization against Islam." Prince Angé is a member of the Danish royal house and is a first cousin of the King of Denmark, of the King of England and of the King of Norway. He is a brother-in-law of the Princess Foiana, daughter of the King of Italy. His military career was begun in the Danish army, where for sixteen years he was an officer in the Grenadier Guards. "He also served in the Greek army in 1913, during the first Balkan War. He was wounded in a campaign against the Rifka last fall and left Morocco in November on a leave of absence. His New York lecture debut was something of a social affair. Joseph H. Chote, Jr., served as chairman and introduced him to an audience containing many of the city's social leaders. Reds Won't Join Arms Parley on Swiss Soil MOSCOW, Jan. 15.—In its reply to the invitation of the League of Nations to participate in the work of the preparatory commission for the league's disarmament conference, the Russian government will say that it can accept only if the meeting is held outside Swiss territory. It was learned today that the Russian reply will be handed to the league secretariat next week. The Russian reply cites the circumstances of the assassination of Vasilv Vorovaky at Lausanne, in May 1923, and the acquittal of Maurice Conradi, his lawyer. The Soviet government, it says, could only agree to send delegates to Geneva if the Swiss government offered an apology for the slaying of the Soviet envoy and the exoneration of his assassin. So. Africa Has No Desire To Enter Imperial Parley LONDON, Jan. 13.—The Union of South Africa will not join the mother country in her plans for the security and peace of Europe as represented by the Locarno Treaty and refuses to take part in the projected imperial conference this autumn, which would have under discussion the Dominions' responsibility in the Locarno pact, it is stated in quarters close to the British Government. Gen. Hertzog, the South African Prime Minister, is understood to have informed the Colonial Office that his government has decided not to send a representative to the conference on the ground that the Dominion does not want to participate in European affairs with which it is not directly concerned. Pharaoh's Coffin Exhibited CAIRO, Jan. 13.—The exhibition of the golden coffin, with the wonderful nask of Tut-ank-Amen, at the Egyptian Museum, attracted crowds of highly interested visitors here today. The spectators totaled 1,200 paying the equivalent of 25 cents in American money each for admission. The coffin is installed in one of the museum's upper chambers. The antiquities department exhibited also a marvellous head covering for the king which, in a splendid example, of exquisite goldsmith's work. An Ecryptologist declared that £500,000 could be obtained for the coffin from a wealthy foreign museum. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1926 CAPITALISM SEEKS NEW REALMS FOR EXPLOITATION Harvey Firestone Pleads for U. S. "Protection" in Liberia—Philippines Not Receptive but Liberian Operations Proceeding According to Plan WASHINGTON, Jan. 35.—A plea for government protection of American capital investments abroad in rubber plantations, was made today by Harvey S. Firestone, Akron rubber manufacturer, before the House Committee on interstate and Foreign Commerce. Mr. Firestone, expressed hope that recommendations to this end would be made in the committee's report. He called attention particularly to land laws and other difficulties in the way of rubber development of the Philippines, and told of the experiences of himself and associates in Liberia, where millions are being invested for rubber production. Mr. Firestone settled the events that have followed the restrictions imposed in the British colonies and his efforts to awaken the American people to the problem so that an independent source of supply might be developed. The campaign in the British colonies, he said, began in September, 1820, and, he contended, it was plain that "from the very beginning and even before the scheme became a law it was used for speculation and price manipulation." "I was unsuccessful," said Mr. Firestone, "in obtaining the desired co-operation of other American manufacturers. I presume the reason for this was that they did not appreciate the conditions created by the Rubber Restraint act and had confidence in the assurance given them by the Rubber Growers' Committee. Philippines Not Receptive The congressional appropriation of $500,000 for a study of planting possibilities was the next development, Mr. Firestone stated, and he decided in May, 1923, to conduct an independent investigation of new sources of supply. This was started in the Philippines. Investigators found conditions of soil and climate advantageous, with good labor possibilities, and were shown every courtesy by Governor General Wood. "Because of the land laws now in force in the Philippines and the attitude of our native government," Mr. Firestone stated, "our investigators advised against then attempting any rubber developments in the Philippines. If the Philippines are to be developed, capital must have assurances that it will be properly protected, which the present political situation does not assure." Impurities were continued in Mexico Mr. Firestone said, but before they could be completed a revolution "broke out" and the investigators were forced to leave the country by way of Guatemala. They looked into Central America and Panama, finding climatic and other natural conditions favorable. In December, 1923, attention was centered on Liberia, and a report was received "that climate, soil and labor conditions in Liberia were equal, if not better than any part of the eastern rubber-producing areas." A 2,000-acre plantation was taken over. To Develop Million Acres in Liberia "We hope eventually," said Mr. Firestone, "to develop a million acres of rubber in Liberia. We now have ten experienced planters, with their assistants, and are sending soon another group of ten more experienced planters, with their assistants. We expect each of these twenty planting units to clear and plant a 1,000-acre plot in 1926." There is a medical staff, and investigations of living conditions are being made with the aid of the Harvard School of Tropical Medicine, and the Rockefeller Foundation, he said. "It is our hope," he continued, "with this new development to keep Liberia the most healthy tropical country in the world, and we will establish the most modern sanitary and health conditions practicable." "I want to point out," Mr. Firestone continued, "that it is my opinion that (Continued on page 6) ALLEGED LYNCHER FREED Mississippi Jury Finds Cain Not Guilty of Negro's Death CLARKSBALE. Miss. Jan. 13.—A verdict of, not guilty was returned here late today in the case of G. O. Calf, tried, by a jury in Coahoma County Circuit Court on a charge of murder, in connection with the recent lynching of Lindsay Coleman, Négro. Obeying, a warning given by Judge W. A. Alhoma before the jury reported, no demonstration was attempted in court when the verdict was read. /CHICAGO, Jan. 10—Below zero weather and unemployment are driving back to the south thousands of colored men lured North in the last three years by hope of easy work and big money. They have found neither. Instead, they have found racial lines almost as closely drawn as down South, and have discovered that they must pay high prices and pay on the nail for everything. It is estimated in the last month fully three thousand colored men have returned to Dixie, most of them already assured of employment in the forthcoming season, either in the fields, or an artisans for many, of them have learned useful trades during their sojourn in the North. It is believed the number returning will run fully six thousand before the winter ends. THE NEW NEGRO GETS A RATING Christian Recorder Asks "What's the New Negro" and Answers the Question [Editor's Note] The New Negro is here-in America, in the West Indies, in Africa, everywhere. He is the Negro who is conscious of his powers, and who realizes that the only solution for the much-talked of Negro problem lies in laboring for nationhood on the continent of his forefathers, Africa. The New Negro is but the Old Negro with the bowing and scraping practices cant off, with the inferiority shibbolethus shed, with eyes that see and ears that hear THE TRUTH, propaganda and hypocrisy notwithstanding. He is the Negro of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.] (From the Christian Recorder) Every now and then we hear some one talk about, "The New Negro." There are so many different conceptions that we are beginning to doubt if those who use the term so glibly have really thought through what they have in mind. Some seem to think by the New Negro a Negro who will contend for his rights; others a Negro who is "educated"; others a Negro who will actually fight; others a Negro who is entering into new jobs, etc., etc. Undoubtedly there is a New Negro in the making, if not in actuality. What is he? What is he? Rather let us ask first what was the old Negro? The old Negro was a slave, dependent upon the white people for his food and his thinking. Because he was a slave and dependent for his food and his thinking, his occupations and his education were limited to the white man's whim. When Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, he made possible a New Negro—a free Negro. But freedom was not entirely new to the Negro, as there were in 1860 some three-quarter of a million free Negroes. To our way of thinking the New Negro, if there is such, is a free Negro, dependent upon himself for his food and thinking—a Negro who has the ideal of a spiritually and economically independent group working in harmony with and being a part of the larger American group. The New Negro is possessed of a new spirit. An Bishop Ransom, said in his speech here last week, the thing which oppresses the Negro is, the spirit of slavery in the Negro and not the white people. And what the Negro needs is a new spirit of freedom, of manhood, of independence. Now getting a diploma from some university does not necessarily give one a new spirit. We know many concocted Negroes who have been so puffed up by a diploma that they think they are better than all other Negroes, and their chief grievance seems to be that the white people won't accept-them as social equals. They don't care a rap about BAYER Does not affect the Heart DRIVING NEGROES FROM THEIR HOMES IN TAMPA, FLORDIA TAMPA, Fri., Jan. 13. — Following appeals for protection to the Tampa City Commission yesterday by Negro residents and delegations from three Negro organizations, city and county officers today continued to search for a reported band of night, riders, which the Negroes said had warned several of their number, to quit the city. City officials charged that the night riders have been acting under the installation of real estate operators, who would force the Negroes to sell their holdings to make way for subdivisions. R. C. Doby, an aged Negro, told Mayor Perry G. Wall that he was visited by the band which, after burning a cross before his home, warned him to leave the city within forty-eight hours. They then left his place. Doby said, and set fire to a Negro neighbor's home. Policemen were detained to protect the Negro, with orders to shoot to kill anyone attempting to moist him or his property. After delegations representing the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance, the Tampa Urban League and the business and professional men had visited the commission, instructions were issued that the band of night riders was to be rounded up and every protection defended the Negro residents. Belief that real estate operators were behind the night riders, investigators said, was based on the fact that several attempts recently have been made to develop a subdivision which have met with failure because of Negro occupants of the property. Son of Great Sheik Enters American School The son of the Sheik of the greatest tribe in Iraq has entered the Preparatory School of the American University of Beliru, bringing with him the following letter of introduction to President Bayard Dodge: "The bearer is the son of the Sheik of the greatest tribe in Iraq. His father, Sheik Ajal Boy El Tawar, rules over the Arab tribes that live in the area between Aleppo and Baghdad, the Tikris and the Euphrates. We had the greatest difficulty in persuading this Sheik to send his son to the beat Oriental university. We are sure that you will give this boy your special care, so that others of his type will be encouraged to seek education in the 'Oriental Queen.' His presence in the university will be of value not only to the institution but of the greatest value to our country, which is poor in education and in sound characters." New York City Celebrates Negro Music NEW YORK. During the past week New York city has quite done its bit in perpetuating the rhythm and soul of Negro music. Following an open musical forum at the Hotel Plaza, at which J. Rosamond Johnson and Taylor Gordon sang Negro spirituals, a concert of Negro music in aid of the Negro Art School was given in the Ambassador Theatre last Sunday night under the direction of Will Marlon Cook. Besides numbers by Harry Burleigh, James Bland, Paul Laurence Dunbar and other noted Negro composers, Cook's famous "Mammay," sung by Miss Able's Mitchell, and "Swing Along" were faultlessly rendered to a packed house.

In Chicago, a young, well-dressed, college-bred Negro sat under a photograph of Lennin in a South Side news- paper office, reading "Russia Today." preparing pamphlets urging Negro workers to unite with white workers in preparation for the "International proletarian revolution." These two scenes were observed within the past few days by a reporter for The New York Times. They visualize two new movements in the labor world which have grown out of the post-war migration of hundreds of thousands of Negro workers from the South to the big industrial centers of the North and West. First, there is a growing demand among negroes for organization, coupled with an increasing tendency in the American Federation of Labor to let down the bars which white unions have raised against Negroes. Second, there is an apparent attempt by the Communists, working through the Workers (Communist) Party of America and the newly formed American Negro Labor Congress to influence the Negro labor movement along radical lines and if possible to wrest control of it from the conservative organized labor movement in America. This effort appears to be directed by the Communist Internationale in Moscow as part of its world-wide propaganda among backward and "oppressed" colored races. It bears the same "left wing" relationship to the Negro labor movement as William Z. Foster's Trade Union Educational League bears to white labor in the United States. Leaders Greatly Divided Negro leaders and the Negro press throughout the country have been engaged for some weeks in a violent controversy regarding, both movements. The National Association for Advancement of Colored People, favors organization along conservative trade union lines. James Weldon Johnson and Dr. W. E. B. Dulbola take this stand. Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University, Washington, D. C., has come out against Negro unionism, arguing that the heat interests of Negro workers would be served by standing with capital. (The breaking of several big strikes, notably the great steel strike in 1918, has been generally attributed to unorganized Negro labor.) Many Negro newspapers are attacking the present union movement on the ground that it is influenced by the American Federation of Labor, which they charge with gross discrimination against Negroes. Only a small and comparatively uninfluential group is urging Negro labor to line up with Communism. See Trouble in New Propaganda Conservative Negro leaders and white labor leaders regard the Communist are almost invariably those who have long, straight hair, wl'h always looks smooth, and are always wearing your hair nowadays, to too many other women of our group are learning how much more attractive they can make them, giving their hair the right kind of attention.

I love PLUAR HA DRESSING, with which I must be jilted, also wonderful productions." propaganda among the Negroes as a potential source of trouble. Hugh Fraye, general organizer of the American Federation of Labor in New York, takes this view, and says that the Federation will fight radicalism among Negro workers as strongly as it has in white labor unions. Dr. DuBols, Negro editor of The Crisis, thinks it is up to the white people of America to treat the Negroes better in order to keep them out of the Communist ranks. "The American Negro, Labor Congress is a straw that shows which way the wind blows," says Dr. DuBols. "The Russian Communists have gone out of their way to express sympathy with Negro and colored workers all over the world. On the other hand, such movements in the United States as the Ku Klux Klan and the Nordic supremacy propaganda have created a situation, which certainly will make some Negroes say: The Communists offer us relief, and we ought to train with our friends." "The Communist movement among American Negroes has not made much progress yet, because the Negro is very religious and is very conservative, except on the race problem, on which he is radical.

LET'S PUT IT OVER WORKING FOR THE PARDON THERE was a rumor in New York's Harlem last week that President Coolidge was considering the question of giving a pardon to Mr. Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The rumor was started by an announcement in a morning newspaper. It was simply astonishing the number of people we met during the day who wanted to know if the rumor was true. The interest in the rumor was general. Nothing would please the people of Harlem, nay, the Negroes of the world, more than to know that Mr. Garvey had received a pardon, and that he was again at the old stand, doing business for Negro uplift and African redemption. Let us hope that the rumor was based on much fact and that Mr. Garvey will receive a pardon at the hands of the President; and while we are hoping let us continue to work for the pardon. The way to secure what you want is to get on the job and stay on it. PRESIDENT-GENERAL GARVEY CALLS FOR A BRAVE FRONTING OF THE ENEMY EVERYWHERE the cry has gone forth for the Negro to get together, stand together and fight together for control and ordering of his social, civil and economic values, and the cry has been heard in all lands and has animated the Negro with new life and purpose wherever he has heard it. The African Congress and The African World, in Africa, stand for the same principles that the Universal Negro Improvement Association and The Negro World stand, in the United States and in all lands where there are Negroes, President-General Garvey calls for a brave fronting of the enemy. In his front page article in the last issue of The Negro World, asking us all "What Will Tomorrow Bring?", among other things, he says: The world in which we live today requires of every man and woman an acute sense of the fitness of things, a keen perspective and preparing sacrifice if we are to survive and make ourselves respected. The moment we become complacent and satisfied, content to bask in the sunshine of the glory and achievement of others, that moment we set back the hands of the clock of racial progress. For it is apparent that truth, justice, love and mercy have taken their departure, and all that we have is the reign of selfishness and greed which will ultimately be the wreck and ruin of our civilization. In all this terrible muddle four hundred million. Negroes are called upon to play their part. It is natural and necessary, then, that we take on the spirit of the age and meet the other fellow on his own ground with his own weapons. It is for this reason that the Universal Negro Improvement Association steps out speaking in unmistakable terms on behalf of our own group, and in language forcible and uncompromising calls upon each and every member of our race to gird his armor on and be ready for the fray." Let us all stand firm for the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, contending all of the time and everywhere for what is justly ours, and we shall not fail; we must succeed, BRITISH LABOR LEADER ASSAILS NORDIC SUPREMACY THE propaganda which was started in the United States immediately after the Civil War and the freeing of the slaves, to establish the inherent superiority of the white races, with special reference to what has degenerated into the "Nordic Myth," it were, with the right to subjugate and rule darker races without hat or lindrance, has had many setbacks and is scheduled to have many more, the opposition coming not only from the darker races but from European races not classed as Nordic—the Jewish, Slavic and Latin races among the proscribed—insofar that all of these and the darker races are equally discontented with the presumption of the English-speaking world to have things all their way without consulting others. That is to say, the assumption of superiority of the English people, and their right to do as they will, has been challenged by the other white race groups of Europe, and by the darker races of Asia and Africa, and this challenge is coming more and more to vex the Nordic propagandists. Why should it not? ality, but merely as an element in a general mixture of population." WHITES DOMINA Mr. Davies has not been in the United States long enough to get a slant on the generality with which Negroes own and operate automobiles and wear Tuxedo clothes and talk about the new scientific realism. When his ignorance has been illuminated on these matters he will probably change his mind as to what may have happened to Lothrop Stoddard if he had been adopted by a Negro when two years old. But Mr. Davies has the correct viewpoint even in that phase of the question. Environment and education have a very great deal to do with the development of any sort of creature. Most of those who live in castles and palaces today are the offspring of those who came out of shackles and hovels and their descendants may go back to where their parents came from. It has been found difficult, if not impossible, to entail character, education and wealth. They have a way of taking wings and flying away, say, in the third and fourth generation. The uames of great men and races and nations have gone that way in the past and will continue to go that way, because it is the Biblical law of even, which works invariably, as far as we can judge of it with the history of mankind opened before us, are simply legion for name. Of all the races the whites are the worst offenders against race purity. Wherever they go they scatter their seed among strangers and go away and forget it, but the seed does not die, neither as to the spirit nor flesh of it. We find this true of the mixed European in his contacts in the United States, the West Indies, in Asia and in Africa. The white races have done more to destroy race purity by their immoral relations with darker peoples than they can ever do to restore it to so much of purity it had before they began corrupting it. And the English speaking whites are the worst offenders in the race mixing business as well as the most brutally inhuman in treatment of the clandestine offspring. Is it not tragical that those who have done most to corrupt the blood of the races should now be the loudest in demanding that there must be race purity! It seems so to us. They are victims of their own righteousness and will have to die by it, because they have been blinded as to the truth about themselves and their dirty debauching of the women of the black, red and brown races in the Americas, in the West Indies, in Asia and in Africa. OUR FARMERS SHOULD RAISE THEIR HOME SUPPLIES THE farm industry is the backbone of every country. In the last analysis, when the farmer fails to supply the essentials of food and clothing the nation affected at once feels the pinch. The trouble with England, has always been that it must depend upon the outside world for its foodstuffs. They have to be imported. Colonies, on this account, have been developed to furnish the home country with the raw materials and to depend upon the home country to supply the manufactured products. This system was primarily intended to supply the home country with foodstuffs, but it has so worked that the home country, as the source of manufactures, has become a drain on the production and taxpayers of the colonies. It is on this account that several of the dominions have broken away and, instead of supplying the home country with raw materials and accepting in return the manufactured products, have begun to manufacture these raw materials at home. Lady Cynthia Mosley, a daughter of the late Lord Curzon, who has turned Socialist and is visiting this country with her husband for the purpose of studying labor conditions, asserts that there are some 1,300,000 workers in England out of work, for whom the government has to provide a dole, a sort of bread line, and it has to do this at an enormous expense. No country can long survive that has so many idlers it must support at the public expense. That is happening to Great Britain, because its manufacturing interests have been impaired by the new policy of the colonies of manufacturing their own raw materials. The distress of the British laboring class also indicates, Lady Mosley thinks, the breakdown of the competitive civilization on which modern peoples have built their industrial system, and that the British at least are turning to socialism, for refuge. And she thinks the United States will have to do the same thing when its era of prosperity has passed and the people begin to feel the pinch of poverty, as they are feeling it in Great Britain. The Negro World has a very large number of readers who are farmers. This is true of them in the United States, in the West Indies and in Africa. We believe in the farmer and in ownership in the soil as the most independent life. The man who owns the land will own the man who works the land. That is a Henry Georgeism that is true everywhere. Just how to overcome the inequality and disadvantage of the principle, appears to be one of those phenomena that cannot be overcome but persists in asserting itself. The distress of the farmer, therefore, of the people who are responsible as land owners and tenants or wage-earners, must always be in the nature of a national calamity, as in Great Britain and, in some sort, in the United States. Everywhere our farmers should strive to raise their home supplies and plenty of poultry and keep one or more cows. The money crops should be considered only after the home supplies crops have been provided for. In this way they can become independent of the credit system in time and add to their acreage as they are going along.

In the college department, nearly 1,000 have enrolled. The other departments show enormous registrations as follows: Meddition, 257; Central, 97; pharmacy, 52; law, 52; math, 76; religion, 50. The total for the endline year 1989-90 amounts that for the beginning year by around hundred. On a point of order made by Congressman Hare, Department of State Secretary, on Monday, January 11, the same arrangement for Howard University was established from the approval. The 1990 year grade in the college department will be determined by the NICARAGUA HEAD RESIGNS Congress Compiled by Rival, Expected to Accept WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.—Mikeler Bierhardt had work advised the State Department that President Salazar had promoted his resignation to the Nicaragua Congress. It was expected that Congress would not formally on the resolution on January 13. Bierhardt to General Baldwin (President) controls the Congress which recently declared him "Nicaraguan President" and announced Vice-President "Hugo," the "Dominican" for the current body. He asked Baldwin to immediately impose will be required. The United States Senate hereby warned Bierhardt that the Senate inquiry will be required to determine the EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS From The New York Sun Although the status of the Anglo- Egyptian Sudan has not yet been set- tled, it is far less Egyptian than Engl- ish. British development projects are on such a large scale that its present sparse population, lacking industrial habits, would and it impossible to carry them out. Its resources are vast, but the difficulty of developing them is such that the task will take years and re- quire great amounts of capital. In the Gealra, the country incloses in the triangle between the White Nile and the Blue Nile, the most fertile section of the Sudan, plants have been made to extend, the cotton growing area by irrigation. The district has been leased from its native cultivators by the government and cultivating rights have been let out to a British company. The lease runs out in forty years. Cultivation will be done entirely by machinery, and the company expects to make terms with the native, owners and retain possession. In many large districts, the natives can usefully engage in production of cattle and sheep, the stock of which already exceeds their food needs. The government supports a large body of agricultural exports whose researches are largely devoted to cotton. The criticism has been made that attention to the yield of live stock in the South and West would be more beneficial to the population and be the best policy in the end. Farmers Want Us To Eat More Corn From The New York Sun From the corn belt the farmers urge the city man to eat more corn. They praise its flavor, its sustaining quali- ties, its adaptability to the needs of man. The mid-Westerners do not pose as philanthropists; they want the money. But their counsel is good. Self- interest on their part has not affected its excellence. Corn was to our forefathers what oatmeal is to the Scotch. Injun puddin' is the food of plants—glants of the head, the heart, the body, Rhode Island johnny-cake is a confession 'as well as a food. Men eat of it and are inspired. Honecake sustains the poetry of Dixie land. Corn bread delights four of the five senses and inspires the wish it were vocal, that the ears might share its symphony of happiness. A long catalogue of boons is entered under "Corn" in the cook books of the nation. To eat it is to do the ultimate consumer high benefit and to tide the owners of too prolific fields over a period of unbarrassment; a double-barreled benefit. The Sun Indores the Eat More Corn crouspade. Ventilation Lawn Cause Big Ventilation Laws Cause Big Waste "Ventilation legislation," Says Dr. Winslow of the Yale School of Medicine, "waste $2,500,000 annually of the taxpayer's money and is injurious to the health of school children," says Thrift Magazine." "In New York State alone $200,000 of public funds are foolishly spent, each year in the operation of school ventilation systems based on a disproved theory," he finds. We believe that a Negro should have a right to live anywhere under the same sun, but should choose places where he could be of the most benefit to his own race and community. Wherever he does live, he should count heavily as a Christian and citizen.—The Negro Star. We hope to see racial and religious bigotry and intolerance supplanted by magnanimity and tolerance, or at least by a decided forward movement in that direction. Let us all according to our abilities and opportunities do our part to bring such things to pass. The optimistic outlook begets the spirit which accomplishes the thing desired. Hopefulness dares and does, where doubt and pessimism falters and falls.—Omaha Monitor. The three great sins are selfishness, arrogance and animosity. And the greatest of these is animosity. For the sowing of this seed is reaped in strife and turmoil, brought on by hate and prejudice.—Pacific Defender. If one lacks the ability to successfully plan and the adaptability to work and wait, there is nothing awaiting him but failure. Added to the ability to plan and work, each one of us needs a certain amount of courage and stability. For the moment we lose courage in ourselves, that moment we had better stop and take an inventory of ourselves and see if we cannot find the loose screws or misplaced parts which must be replaced before the work can go on to success.—Newport News Stuff. A race of people that will not contend—fight for its rights will are long not have any rights or dwelling to contend—fight. This is an true as Holly Wynn—Richard Plant. The day of small enterprise may be gone, but the day of small beginnings is always with us for those who have ideas, ability and perseverance—Boston Giants. of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Overcreating and High Blood Pressure Did you ever walk so fast that your legs became tired and stiff? You overworked them. You demanded too much of your muscles and they could not keep up with your commands. People who put too much into their stomachs are demanding too much of their digestive tracts. But the stomach and intestines can stand "a lot of punishment" as a rule. The danger of overeating lies in its effect upon the heart and blood vessels. Anyone who is obese has added to the work of the heart muscle and the tubes which carry the blood. The circulatory system is designed to take care of a properly proportioned body. Like all good machinery it is capable of carrying a very slight overload for a long time, a heavy load occasionally, but it is incapable of doing double work all the time. Look at the next fat person you meet and consider the enormous number of square inches of excess area which the heart and liver vessels must take care of and compose that person to a well built, beautifully proportioned individual whom you know. The heart cannot reason and refuse to nourish the unnecessary layers of fat on the shoulders, the arms, the back, the hips, the abdomen. It must attempt to take care of the body even though in doing so it weakens itself and eventually kills itself by overwork and so destroys the life of that body. The individual can and must reason and protect that organ which makes life possible. Those who overeat, not only add to the area of the body which must be nourished by the blood, but they put too much into the blood, both nourishment and waste matter, throw the much of a load upon the organs of excretion and run the risk of poisoning because these organs cannot get rid of all this extra material fast enough. The blood vessels have too much to do. They stiffen like the muscles of your legs when you walk too fast, too long. Submitting to constant poisoning, they grow hard. Hardened arteries cannot work so well. The heart must work more forcefully to push the blood through these resisting tubes. The blood pressure rises. African Queen's Hoard Of Gold Is Sought JOHANNESBURG, South Africa. Jan. 4—Great curiosity has been aroused over a supposed hidden treasure. It concerns the late Queen Mother of Swaziland, who was reputed among the natives to be possessed of enormous wealth. The story goes, that from 1894 to 1900 this Queen, Nabo Tsibendi, was paid an annuity of £12,000 (about $60,000), always in gold sovereigns. There was no evidence of any expenditure on her part, on the contrary she always pleaded poverty, and it is said she and her daughter (who predeceased her) were the only persons who know where her wealth was hidden in M'babani. Whether the treasure really exists and where are questions now troubling, many would be seekers. weight and force and sympathy for her contention to enforce the 18th. As it is, she wants to nullify the 13th, 14th and 15th, and shed crocodile tears for the 16th. She lacks force of her contention because of her inconsistency.—St. Louis Argus. It is well to cultivate the universal method of thinking about the race problem. Our own difficulty is here. That is painfully true. But if we make a more conscious effort to view race as a world question, we may, in our striving for greater fairness, help relations in our country, and we will certainly correct the fault of believing that the American Negro problem is the most vital race issue of the time.—St. Paul Echo. Can the Negro in America ever get under a Jim-Crow system what every other American citizen is entitled to and gets? We do not believe so. In the interest of what is called peace, concessions to prejudice may be expedient, but wrong once entrenched is difficult to eradicate.—Star of Zion. To the Negro the great burden is opportunity denied. We cannot work in special trades as do other men because the city, the government of which we are a part, refuses us the chance. The excuses vary, but the result is the same.—Kansas City Call. Far be it from us to preach a doctrine of racial hatred but on the other hand, we must preach a doctrine of right, and as the Negro enters into 1936 he must enter with a full resolution to seek every right guaranteed by the Constitution and to be satisfied with nothing less.—California Velos. Roland Hayes, the celebrated Negro tenor, continues to earn fresh laurels at every performance as he makes his winter tour of the leading cities of the United States. We reproduce below two comments on the man and his art: PHILADELPHIA—Soloist with Philadelphia Orchestra: "Roland Hayes, that admirable tenor, who came from humble surroundings in the South and who rose to such eminence that music lovers in Europe and in America have acclaimed him, had a new triumph last evening at the Academy of Music, where he sang with new Philadelphia Orchestra. He proved himself to be a super singer, not only in three spirituals of his race, but also in an aria, "So mosta in Sorte," of Mozart. The aria was artistically given with a loveliness of tone well suited to the Mozartian strain and the song, was all too short. Stokouss, evidently pleased, did not hesitate to give expression, to appreciation in a hearty hand clasp of the finger. But the spirituals, later in the evening, evoked a still greater enthusiasm. Hayes is imbued with their beauty, and 'Sit Down,' Heavens, more familiar and a most ingrating melody, and the ever-popular 'Deep River,' were given with such skill as only an artist could supply. The audience would have liked more, but the rule to permit no additional music on a program of the symphony sort had to be applied." - Philadelphia Record, Dec. 27, 1923 BOSTON. — Second recital of the season: "There is little one can now say of Roland Hoges as a singer that has not become common knowledge. His immense and still growing popularity is wholly deserved. No finer artist, and no more satisfying singer is before the pulle. "His voice is of great beauty, not of phenomenal volume, but of a quality which at its best is exquisite. He colors his tones with almost unerring substitution to suit the mood of eagerness. But what really holds his audiences intent is not so much the art and the voice as the man himself. "That is why others of his race are misguided in thinking that a second Roland Hayes is possible. He is in limitable, though his voice and art may be seducliously aped with some success, just as John McCormack's have been. It is his intense moral earnestness, his capacity for besty, his ability to experience almost at will on the concert platform whatever feeling the music demands that set Roland Hayes apart. "No other performer has ever done anything like his performance of 'The Crucifaxlon,' unaccompanied. 'Were You There?' rings accusingly in every listening car. 'Sometimes the Thought of It Makes Me Tremble,' and his soul is at his lins. "The audience always listens breathless, with that utter silence which is the rarest of phenomena in the concert hall. Yet some people think that there will be a second Roland Hayes, that he is merely a negro with a good voice exceptionally well coached, "Having ears the yhear not."—Penfield Roberts, Boston Globe, Jan. 4, 1926. From The New York World The anthracite strike now goes on to a test of endurance. Legislation at Harrisburg or in Washington can do nothing to settle the immediate dispute. We need legislation embodying the principal proposals of the Federal Coal Commission, but such legislation cannot be applied except to an industry at peace. For the present we face an indomitable struggle. The misery of it will fall chiefly upon the wives and children of the miners; the chief financial loss will be felt by the business interests of the anthracite districts and by consumers who buy poor substitutes at atrocious prices. The one hope for an early place now lies in a movement to thrust aside or discipline the leaders who will not listen to reason, and this movement must come from within the two capitals. The operatives have their obstructive element. Though there seems little if any basis for Mr. Lewis' claim that a "few irresponsables" representing only one-fourth the tonnage blocked a settlement, some mine-owners wish nothing as much as to break the union. This element should be allenced. But the main responsibility for forcing a more enlightened stand falls upon the mine-workers. They should realize that the principal obstractor at the Union League Club was Mr. Lewis. It was Mr. Lewis who refused every offer of arbitration and who rejected all practical plans of compromise by insisting on an unworkable if not unconstitutional scheme of Federal price-fixing, and wage-fixing. It was Mr. Lewis who utterly disrupted the Marble plan for continuous fact-finding accompanied by continuous collective bargaining. The union workers have reason to ask where Mr. Lewis' leadership is carrying them. He has claim to winning the great strikes of 1918 and 1922, but the first was an antitheocracy, and the second is Pyrrhic victory. The Jacksonville agreement which followed the 1923 strike has almost disrupted the soft-col union. Last July twenty-three of the unified mills and steel down, Mr. Lewis West Virginia strike was an utter failure; his whole cause is the antitheocratic dispute has been blindingly and arbitrary. His manifestation of prison stewardship bravely and prowession. The antitheocratic mines will be justified in bringing him under control that they with a setttempt and that they impersonate to change his attitude to give them amm. Spanish Section La ley tratará de librar a los opuleutos pieles rojas de la tribu de los Osages, de las garras de una cuadrilla de asesinas, cnya cuadrilla es creidá la culpable de los asesinatos que se han cometido en dicha tribu durante los tres últimos años. Condiciones requeridas por la era en que vivimos—El sentimiento egiosa amenaza la actual civilización—Luchemos en buena lid por el verdadero reajuste de la cuestión del dia—Actitud antagónica de las naciones predominantes—La sumisión intercepta el progreso de los pueblos Los valientes aterrorizados y señalados para morir a manos de la cuadrilla llegaron a la ciudad por conductos secretos para comparecer ante el jugado federal de la corte suprema con el objeto de ayudar en la investigación preliminar de los extranos sucesos que han ido ocurriendo en la region habitada por los indios. El mundo en que vivimos requiere hoy dia cualidades excepcionalisimas, un agudo sentido de preparación en todas sus actividades, una exacta perspectiva y un sacrificio incuestionable, toda vez queramos sobrevivir como individuo, como entidad, como raza, como pueblo y como nación, y esperemos ser dignamente respetados. Los investigadores federales que fueron enviados el año pasado para compilar los datos, aseguran que oyeron historias-espeluzauntes de los propósitos de una banda de asesinos para eliminar a unos cuantos indios, entre los que se encontraban los herederos de una de las familias más opultas de la tribu. En el momento en que nos complazcamos con recibir los destellos luminicos de la gloria y adelantos de otros, en ese precioso momento cometeremos un grave error; caminaremos hacia la nulidad; y por atavismo, desgracia, flaqueza u otra tradicional debilidad endémica de raza, no haremos otra cosa que hacer girar en dirección opuesta, las manecillas del reloj en que tan sacrificadamente hemos venido marcando nuestro enaltecimiento racial. El informe presentado fue tan secreto como las mismas investigaciones, y los indios, siempre sospechando de la buena, se del hombre blanco, contaron sus historias a los investigadores con miedo, y al acabar sus declaraciones, muchos de ellos se volvieron sectetamente a sus territorios y algunos se han escondido, por temor a que los blancos se venguen. Tenemos darnos perfectisima cuenta y es por demas aparente, que la justicia, el amor, la misericordia, son tesoros que han desaparecido del sentimiento humano; todo lo que nos resta es el reino del egoismo, avaricia y mala intención, manifestaciones estas muy viciadas que si logran tomar asiento dentro de nuestras organizaciones, constituirán la ruina de nuestra civilización contemporanea. Al dar principio a la investigación pública, resultante de la investigación secreta, las autoridades han arrestado a W. K. Hale, ranchero opulento, y a su sobrina Ernest Burkhardt, marido de una de las herederas indias. Estos dos, individuos han sido acusados del asesinato de W. E. Smith, otro hombre blanco, quien junto con su mujer, otra piel roja, perdieron la vida cuando la casa que ellos habitaban fué volada con dinamita en el mes de marzo de 1923. En toda esta terrible amenaza que se nos avecina, cuatrocientos millones de negros estan llamados a tomar su parte, a contribuir con sus esfuerzos, a salvar lo suyo, aquello que legitimamente les pertenece. Es mas que natural y lógico el que nos aprestemos con la influencia que nos da el espíritu de la época y en campo abierto, en lid gallarda encontremos al otro factor que nos dispute nuestro terreno, y le presentemos batalla en su jurisdicción, usando sus mismas tácticas y utilizando la misma clase de armas; de otra manera iremos directamente camino de la derrota y nuestro futuro ha de ser cero incuestionablemente. A consecuencia de este doble asinato, el terror se apoderó de la tribu de los Osages y los piles rojas pidieron que el gobierno auxiliase a la tribu para evitar más asesinatos. Barbey McBride, de Muskogee, a quien los indios recurrieron, se prestó voluntariamente a interceder por ellos y se encaminó para la capital. Es pues esta la razon por la cual la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra se adelanta al procenio de los acontecimientos humanos, y de una manera decisiva argumenta y presenta términos en favor de nuestro grupo, y en un lenguaje convincente, repleto de sinceridad, Ilama a todos y cada uno de los elementos de nuestra raza, para que con la espada del derecho en la diestra, esté lista para librar y salir victorioso en la lucha por conservación y mejoramiento que se aproxima. McBride nunca llegó a Washington, pies su cuerpo destrozado fue encontrado en la vía de Maryland. La cuadrilla de asesinos, con sus tentaculos que alcanzaban por todo el país, habia reclamado una victima más. No vale la pena que reajustemos esta cuestión humana con oraciones y palabras; lo moderno reclama otro sistema. Nosotros debemos emplear solamente el argumento, el practicismo, lo tangible que las razas enajones del mundo entienden y ponen en vias de acción en este siglo veinte. Este argumento con lo cual van ganando un precioso terreno las otras razas y el resto de la humanidad que nos mira con recelo, es traducido como argumento a la fuerza física, argumento a la fuerza económica, argumento a la fuerza política e industrial. De las diecisiete personas muertas, nueva de ellas han perdido la vida en condiciones misteriosas que hasta la fecha ha sido imposible descifrar. Según parece, lo que más tiempo se tardara en investigar es el compilot que estaba centralizado en matar toda la familiar de Lizzie, Q. Brown, quien con toda probabilidad es el indio más acaudalado de toda la tribu y de esta, manera obtener más de dos milfones en derechos de yacimientos petroliferos. Todos los pueblos organizados están hablando con la uerza, como si esto fuera su único lenguaje; y la raza o pueblo que no pueda presentar a este mundo una fuerza organizada, será envuelto bajo el proceso revolucionario que levantan los antagonismo, los odios y todo aquello que trae consigo la opresión racial. Inglaterra y Francia estan mas determinadas hoy que nunca en explotar y someter sus subditos de color; tal lo demuestra las actuales circunstancias. Esos dos pueblos no pueden ser considerados como grandes humanidades, porque han perdido su alma cristiana; no piensan ni actuan como cristianos en los términos que la verdadera cristiandad demanda, sino en los términos de libras esterlinas y de francos. Derecho soberano del pueblo El pueblo mejicano cono estado soberano tiene el derecho de sancionar sus propias leyes; y si estas en niodo alguno afectan 'los intereses de los extranjeros residentes en el país, los tribunales mejicanos estan a la disposición para sus reclamaaciones. Inglaterra necesita dinero; Francia necesita dinero; Italia urge reabilitarse económicamente; Bélgica tiene su bolsa exhausta; Portugal y España están en condiciones perentorias; y todas estas naciones en su anhelo de buscar oro, han dirigido sus miras a Africa todavía virgen, para saciar su sed de dinero. Todas ellas estan haciendo una alocada determinación para resaquear ese bendito país, sin ninguna consideración por la humanidad. Si esas naciones no profesan otra religión que el adorar los destellos del becero de oro, sabemos que lo que llevan a cabo en esa Africa nuestra es una mentira, es todo una falsedad, una pretención y una detestable hipocrecia. El senior Saenz, ministro del exterior, así lo ha especificado en relación con las nuevas leyes mejicanas sobre tierras y petroleo y la nota de objeción nortamericana, manifestando además que el enajobador mejican en este país ha tratado esas cuestiones en varias ocasiones, y su gobierno ha dado las réplicas debidas. Mientras la aplicación de la ley no se una hecho cumplido y no haya prueba legal que afecte derechos, el gobierno mejicano no tomar en considéración ninguno caso en que no se demuestre legalmente la infracción de derrechos extranjeros. Aquila legislación prevues los recursos adecados y sus tribunales están a disposición de todos. Ha despertado gran interés en la capital mejicana dicha nota objetadora y los periodicos la hacen resultar amenable la acción de corte pals, al Profesor u de su hijo que haya representaciones al gobernado mejicano contra los suspectos retroactivos de la lycus sobre tierra, en reflejación con los derrechos de los extranjeros. Aqueru del disconcertante actual, en caso que todo legado se unirá a un mismo La frase ultra política, ropleta de doble sentido de un Chamberlian, las iras del ex-Kaiser, las alaracas y nueces vanas de Briand y Mussolino, todo su gritar se perdería en la espesura del Africa, porque nuestro elemento concientemente organizado no esta dispuuesto ya a prestar atención alguna a pal habladuría. Fuera del respeto que domanden sus afon, sus talentos y sus posiciones políticas, son reprochables sus errores cometidos al sacrificar a los pueblos débiles, haciéndoles pagar con su preciosa sangre la expansión y la prosperidad económica de sus respectivos imperios. Estamos catandes de gata política ficticia y no hemos de dar oido a otra vez que aquella que nos ilame y nos decié; in vez que nos mande a ir hacia adelante en el nombre de una raza emancipada y de una potra redimida; si vez que diga; Marchaid con la esperanza de un pervenir bien brillante, estando a un fuerte las influencias funestas que nos han emprendido en al dfense. Herbert Myric publicista, ha dado una declaración explicando la información de Tanger que anunciaba que se habian dado pasos ya para la formación de una comisión americano en pro del Rif. El comité proyecto ofrece el medio para que el pueblo de Norte y Sud América que esta en favor, de la justicia para los rífenes pueda cooperar con ellos. El primer proposito, según Mr. Myric, es llamar la atención del mundo hacia la situación rífeña. El objeto primero es obtener el reconocimiento de la blergancia de los partidarios de Abel-Krim. Esto haria, posible que la Cruz Roja enviara ambulancias a los campos de batalla y a los hospitales de los árabes y bereberes. o El publicista delcaro que las dotes de estadista de Abd el-Krim y la admisión por su bravura y habilidad en la lucha contra las fuerzas combinadas de dos naciones modernas, le habian ganado el aprecio del pueblo del Nuevo Mundo. La comisión americana prorrifena, concluya, asegurará un trato equitativo para Abd el-Krim y una oportunidad justa para los rifones. La comisión americana coopera con la británica formada ya en Londres con los mismos fines. Enmiendas constitucionales y sus resultados El crecimiento sorpendente del número de prisoneros federales acusados de violar las leyes de immigration y de la prohibición. la llenado de tal matura las carceles de los condados que la condena de prisiones del estado pediría, al gobierno federal que provea prisiones para sus propios presidiosarios. El presidente de la comisión, en su informe a la legislatura recomienda que se provea una ley por medio de la cual se aceptados en las carceles de los condados los presiarios del gobierno federal, siempre y cuando haya facultades para acomodarlos después de atendidas las necesidades del estado. Los prisioneros federales, se dice en el informe, se aceptados en la actualida den las carceles de los condados por un acta pasada por la legislatura en el año 1780, y las condiciones que garantizaron la admission, de esa ley por los etsados cambiaron tanto en los últimos años, especialmente por las leyes que rigen la prohibición, immigration y narcoticos, que el conisión Kennedy dice que no es considerado que el estado pueda 6 deba ocuparse de encarcelar a todos los que violan dichas leyes ademis de las propias del cisado. La congestion en algunas de las carceles de los condados, según el informe, presentado es alarmante. Haciendo un resumen de prisioneros admitidos en ellas desde el año 1914, se ve el aumento considerable que ha ocasionado tal congestion. Sinceridad de un gobernante El doctor Quinones Molina, presidente de la república de El Salvador, ha sido objeto de una gran manifestación de simpatia por el partido nacional democrático que lo llevo al poder. Uno de los ordeos que sonido la palabra en la espontina manifestación al correcto funcionario, tomando en cuenta la labor progresista realizada por el Dr. Quinones, en medio de su discurso manifesto que la nación vería con gusto su continuación en el gobierno, aludiendo a su candidatura para la recepción en el próximo periodo constitucional. El presidente Dr. Quinones, que antes de ocupar la presidencia y durante su campaña, eleccionaria habia manifestado que su gobierno seria de ley y que se tendria respetuosamente a sus dictados, al gestor al arador, manifesto que, agradecia cordialmente la ovación que se le tributa, pero que habiendo sido siempre el partido a que, pertenecia y que le habia llevador al poder, respetuoso de las leyes, debería acatar el principio constitucional de la alternabilidad en el poder público. Esta declaración, como se comprendera, ha sido acogida con, ydadero beneficio por el pueblo salvadorco, que ve en ella la paña política que be trazará el primer magistrado al terminar su periodo constitucional. Magazine Section Rather more Negro music and performers than usual figured on the concert lists of last week. That is a welcome sign, as indisputable proof has exsisted for some time that the natural musical characteristics of the race (a good ear and sense for meadow and rhythm), are capable of being developed into important artistic achievement, both creative and reproductive. Prejudice against color, creed and nationality is strikingly absent among musicians, and among lay music lovers no inclination to draw ethnological, political or religious lines of demarcation ever has been exhibited, except during time of war, when the hysterical will of the boosteric rules rampant. Composers like Coleridge-Taylor, Burleigh, Johnson, and singers like Hayes and Robeson to name only a few of the numerous legitimate colored music makers—have demonstrated not only that their race is capable of performing the white man's best music in highly acceptable fashion, but also that, the compositions of Negro devising justifiably may lay claim to a tang of originality peculiar to no other race. The Negro has arrived in music, and he has done it through his native gifts, but also through hard apprenticeship in the exacting requirements of art. There seems every reason to expect the race to produce a vital symphonic composer at any moment. Perhaps then we shall have the much-discussed great American symphony. Our native white composers still continue to treasure in the paths of European pointing. That is, all except those who have taken to flirting seriously with jazz. And jazz, of course, is the recognized invention and typical expression of the Negro. Does the salvation of American symphonic music lie along the lines of jazz? It would be fateful to say so. Critics are notoriously poor musical prophets. Let his hide our souls in patience and wait. Roland Hayes in New Triumphs Roland Hayes will give his third and last recital of the season in Carnegie Hall on Wednesday evening, January 27. In the last two months a crowded series of recitals in the West and South have but added to, the remarkable success and enthusiasm which he has met on every hand. Roland Hayes appeared in Chicago and was presented by an audience which overflooded the auditorium of Orchestra Hall and filled the stage, an assemblage such as very few artists indeed can attract. In Philadelphia, where he had already appeared notably in recital, he said a regular pair of concerts as solist with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra, under Leopold Strockowski. Audience and conductor warmly applauded this singer. Mr. Hayes' program for his third New York retrial will include Parris's "Wing Am Lail in Earth," Scarletta's "Se nel fen," Frank's "Sel nur still" Schumann's "Aust den Osterglichen Rosen" and "Söhne Freude," Brahms's "Lorghuesean" and "Doin blues Amu," Griffes "In a Morte Shade" Simmons's "Autumn," Cowell "The Fanny Fountain," Santoliquide's "Brimn" and the following Negro spirituals: "Way Up in Heaven," "Go a Home," "Didn't My Lord Deliver Daniel?" and "Witness." It is easy to understand why coal is called black diamonds, if you try to loosen them. A slimple, a cigarette and knickers may feel a bit of folks but they don't feel a mouse.

We fall into the habit of depreciating our own value or worth by measuring ourselves with other people and what they can accomplish, instead of measuring up to what we can accomplish ourselves, through the truth of knowing our being. The past failures and non-performances are of little practical value, saving to serve as an incentive to achieve all that Sons of God have a right to possess. Each task assigned to our hands, each duty performed should reveal to us the glory of God, and what we are able to do through the Christ. Every great deed that has brought lasting benefit to the human-family was wrought first in thought, then in word and deed. Every noble performance has first been visualized before coming into being. The mind goes before and prepares the way for demonstration and action. Every obstacle is removed first in thought, then in reality. There is always present in every man that God urges or spills, which enables him to do all things; but the big fish is to get men to recognize this near relation they sustain to their Father - God. For generations they have believed and accepted their limitations; and charged God foolishly with such limitations. It is the Christ which gives strength and courage for every ordeal. It is the Christ that lends zest and determination to all causes, in which His aid is sought. It is the Christ who assures and convinces that man can do the things of the Father, through Him, who came to prove this and even more by His life and teachings. "All things work together for good to them that love the Lord"—is a yetty that has been proven more than once by those who have engaged in dying great things. We need light and guidance into the ways of truth. We crave such light and guidance through the wrong channel. It is not an outside agency. It is the light that shines within. It is the guidance of the Holy Spirit, which guides you into all the ways of truth and righteousness. "What is it that you will do to do? Keep it in mind, picture it in imagination and begin to demonstrate the same by using the Christ of your own being in the performance of the same. He is ready, to help you. He came for such a purpose. He wants to show others through you that He is all that has been said and written of Him that is good. Do you want nationhood? Do you desire a free and redeemed Africa? Are you sincere in your pleas for liberation of our leader? If we are, and understand the law of love and righteousness, we will be able to realize our desire, cherish our redemption of the Mother-land and see the freedom of our leader. The great trouble, however, is a dual mind: and the Scriptures say: "A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways." We must be single-minded in our purpose, our desire and our expectations, "God needs us and we need God. With Him we cannot fall. Without Him we are lost. Hope, it is clear that our first duty is to find God, and in this discovery disclose our true nature, which reveals that "We can do all things in Him—Christ—that strengthen us."

The proper solution of the problem, in my opinion, is the investment of American capital on a large scale in plantations for rubber production."

"In doing so," he said, "may we emphasize the point once more that the motor manufacturers themselves do not pay the enormous added costs which a speculative motor price has already brought about." Mr. Macoult said the full effect of the increase has not yet been felt, but that it has already brought about an advance of from 10 to 60 percent in the price charged to the motor manufacturers for their tires.

If he had the silent tongue of the Chinese or the Japanese he would be able to command the respect of the world and he on an equal footing with his yellow-brother, in point of racial advancement. The Negro who is a product of slavery just must talk; he is not satisfied unless he is telling something, and usually his attentive listener is a member of the white race, and the secret being divulged concerns Negroes. This awful trait is an aftermath of the conditions imposed on us during slavery. A "good nigger" was one who could give the most information regarding the activities of his comrades on the plantation. He could always enter the "big house" because he had something to tell Marsa Boss, and naturally he had things a little easier than the others, and would lord all over them. Although sixty odd years have passed since this brutal institution has been abolished in America, yet this trait still lingers in the makeup of some Negroes. As a test one would not be safe to discuss something for the welfare of the Negro race in the company of twelve Negroes, intelligent and up-to-date though they be, without that particular information leaking out and reaching the ears of white people, even if the information could be used by the whites to the detriment of the Negro race. In the same way that Hezekiah will run to tell Massa Boss that Jasper plans to run away out of slavery, just so will Honorable So-and-So go down to a European Consulate to tell the Consul that he knows what are Marcus Garvey's plans for the redemption of Africa. "Tis strange, but tis true, that "The Negro is his greatest enemy." Honorable So-and-So may be a member of the Executive Council of the Universal Negro Improvement-Association who sat in conference behind closed doors, and discussed the plans of redeeming Africa, yet because of his slavish instincts he perforce has "to tell" a Consul who represents one of the Powers that hold Africa in subjection and thraldoin, what Garvey's plans are for re-taking Africa for the Africans. It needs the patience of a Job to deal with our people in any mass movement, and, above all, their removal from the environment of their former bosses to government controlled by Negroes, where they will have to take off their hats to black men, and learn to respect and obey their own, then pride of race will take the place of betrayal of race, and love of homeland will make Negroes the arbiters of their own destiny and masters of others. Negroes, bear this in mind: "A still tongue keepeth wise council." The existence of the entire race rests on your ability to keep locked up in your bosom that which your enemy craves to know. He, who talks too much should be silenced. WHITE MAN'S MISRULE DEVASTATING TO AFRICA Causes Disorganization, Immorality and Incapability Men and women of the African race, tightful owners of the African fertile soils, I hold within my conscience that I would be permitting and practicing disloyalty against my race if I had to remain with the truths untold. . . . the precipitous and incorrigible difficulties uttered and entirely bent on eliminating our natural respective characteristics and rights—rights which God provides for each and every being regardless of color, language and creed to enjoy fully and undisturbed. The impregnable facts are that it was through the advent of the white man, who brought with him his notorious education, civilization and Christianity that the peoples of Africa have been so disorganized, so immoral and incapable—especially we, the women of the African race. Putting aside the daily discussed problems of our being so backward, disregarded, segregated, degraded and forsaken, I will revert to my subject. The white man has deemed it a fitting measure to hold, or to be precise, to round up the African men and women in hostels and locations, with the object of protecting the town properties from the supposed raciality of the voiceless African men and immorality of our women. When delying deeper into the question and comparing our ancient with our present political status, one undoubtedly comes to the conclusion that there was, and still is something radically wrong at the time when the European introduced his hide and seek civilization of Christianity and education. To come nearer home, after being led by the white man, to his satisfaction, out of our indolent yet inhumilating life, we are here in the midst of the so-called European civilization, forsaken and blamed to extremes and dare not turn back. therefore we are desirous to be placed on an equal footing with the white man.

"A week or two ago a certain woman from somewhere in the Newcastle district, came to the Native Women's Hostel in Durban along with her baby boy. It was not long after she had obtained her ticket that she was asked whether the child on her back was male or female—for sure it was male. She was then ordered, to take her baby to some other place (a boy of 4½ years) and if she was not able to place her youngest somewhere else, then there was no vacancy for her. She then stunted that having come some distance and having no friends, the Hostel was the only place where she could go to, as she had been directed. But her plicht and pleasing did not allow. She was utterly refused. Now, we as women of the African race, are in duty bound to ask "are these hostels, which are denominating our characters and lowering our status, built to separate us from our inseparable children—children still sucking? On the whole are we so much more immoral than those night-growing European girls committing the very mischiefs at street corners, that we have to be rounded up like cattle? If these hostels had been built for our own benefit, is that the way sympathy is shown to us? Nancy a woman from such a distance to be so treated! We want sympathy shown by deeds and not by mere speeches. Africans, this is beyond endurance. Away with the humiliating European control and onward with the "Black African Empire!" In one of the sermons on Sunday, October 25, 1925, a certain Reverend went out of his way to abuse Mr. C. Kadallo for the work he is doing and said he (Mr. Kadallo). had already nailed in the minds of men to blaspheme the Bible. Can that be true what is said of him? Could a man liberating his fellowmen from the incubus of slumdom forget his Almighty? Like Moses of old, leading the Israelites out of the unwilling and great power of Pharaoh.

Teacher's Influence on Children A Schoolmarm is usually a mother or a stop-mother to the children who make up her daytime family. She has a terrible power to guide or misguide the future citizens, and citizenesses of the world before their young skulls have quite hardened. She can gift too easily make virtue so odious and knowledge so distasteful that she will send out criminals and ignorantus. If she is hard hearted or stupid enough to prevent morals and learning so harshly as to ruin their appeal, she will be certain blame the children for not digesting her indigestible cooking. If she is gentle and wise enough to be a good teacher, she will look across her desk and see in the gathering before her a garden of beautiful flowers, each of which needs special care and the worst of which can be improved and perhaps saved from spiritual death or distortion. Rupert Hunches. Woman Suffrage WASHINGTON.—New Zealand was the first nation which extended woman suffrage in 1893. The other nations since that time, with the dates of enfranchisement, are as follows: Australia, 1962; Norway and Ireland, 1913; Denmark, 1915; Finland and Russia, 1917; Canada, Great Britain and Austria, 1918; Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and Poland, 1912; United States and Czechoslovakia, 1920; Sweden, 1921; and Turkey, 1923. must know that "we want to be free men and women of Afrikan."

German Spinsters Demand Annual "Leap Year" Week BERLIN, Jan. 9.—German spinsters weary of indirect 'methods of snaring the elusive, male, are agitating for a recognized "leap year" week in each year, during which it shall be their privilege to propose. The idea has been presented to the Government Marriage Bureau. It is proposed that there shall be each year not one but seven days dedicated to St. Catherine, the patroness of unmarried women. Several spinsters' organizations are backing the movement. Officials of the Marriage Bureau say that when a girl in Germany is 27 years old and unmarried her chance of getting a husband are about one in five. There is a large surplus of women between the ages of 18 and 45, the war having caused a deficiency of men in the 20s and 30s. Men too young to have served in the war are marrying girls of their own ages. Older men take their time about marrying, and then generally get bridges of less than 27. Advice to Expectant Mothers BY THE BLACK CROSS' NURSES OF NEW YORK The unborn child is affected by the thoughts and the surroundings of the mother through the influences apparently connected with objects by which she is surrounded appears to have been well, known in ancient days as well as at the present time. Every mother may well consider this. Educate your children at the beginning and through the entire months of pregnancy, because maternal study is most promotive of talents which, next to goodness, are the father's joy and the mother's pride. Mothers, does God put the endowments of your feelings into your moulding power? Then tremble in view of its necessary responsibilities and learn how to wield them for their and your temporal and eternal happiness. Many evidences are found in ancient history, especially among the refined nations, showing that certain expeditions were resorted to by which their females during the period of interogestation were surrounded by the superior refinements of the age, with the hopes of thus making upon them impressions which should have the effect of communicating certain desired qualities to the off-spring. For this reason apartments were adorned, statuary and paintings and special palms were taken not only to convey favorable impressions but also to guard against unfavorable ones being made upon the mind of the pregnant woman. Pro-natal influences may do as much in the formation of character as all the education that can come after, the plastic brain of the foetus is prompt to receive all impressions, it retains them and they become the characteristics of the child and the man. Low spirits, violent passions, irritability, frivolity in the pregnant woman leave indisable marks on the unborn child. FITS Attacks Stopped over night in many cases—by new FILM DRUGS.

ENGLAND'S TITLED SOCIALIST VISITS AMERICA The New York Sun recently published a very interesting interview with Lady Cynthia Mosley, Labor candidate for Parliament, who is visiting this country for a rest and also to study conditions here. The following is called from the interview, as we feel sure our readers will be interested to get the views of an English aristocrat laterly converted to Socialism: "We are out and out Socialists. If I were elected I would advocate the nationalization of mines and the basic industries. Don't believe in hereditary titles and if I could have my way, I would abolish the House of Lords. My constituency is largely composed of mines and makers of pottery. That is why I am especially interested in visiting Trenton, Pa., where you make pottery. "I want to study your labor politics. At present I don't know enough about them to sympathize with any special branch. Of course, American labor is still much more conservative than British. Later on, when you have greater centralization of capital and therefore more industrial depression, your workers will be less satisfied and turn to Socialism. "In our country, the influence of the Labor party is gaining enormously. We are the alternative party now. It is true that our left wingers criticize the right, but there will be no split in the Labor party. We are presenting a united front. We have class war in England now, but we will never have a violent outbreak."

"Why did I leave the capitalist side of the force?" Well, I had two ridiculous things called a heart and conscience and they were always bothering me.

Why should I, through more lucky birth be able to secure privileges which were denied to others? I found in political contests that my origin and my husband's were used against us but it ought to be looked upon as an additional guarantee of our sincerity that we are willing to give up such advantages." "The present industrial depression in England is more than just a passing place." Lady Cynthia, continued. "The machino is breaking down. Other parties have had their chance and today we see the state to which these parties have brought us. With the destitution, poverty and misery that are ground us and with a million men unemployed, it is obvious there is something wrong somewhere." Part Women Must Play In the Organization To the Editor of the Women's Page: Very little, if anything, is said of the women who form such a large percentage of the membership of this great movement. For seven years, we have been building our men through the press, on the platform, and, in fact, from every angle, while in reality the back-up and shew of the Universal Negro Improvement Association has been and is the real women of the organization, who are laboring incessantly for the freedom of Negroes the world over. Until recently women of the organization have been given to understand that they must remain in their places—which place constituted nothing more than a Black Cross Nurse of a general secretary of the division. The women have never ceased to fight and make real missionaries for the cause of African redemption, first beginning their efforts in their own homes by converting every inmate of that home to Garveylam, and then go out in the highways and hedges to bring them in. She implicitly believes in the saying, "Charity begins at home and then spreadeth itself abroad." We are sounding the call to all the women in the U. N. I. A. to line up for women's rights in this great organization of our choice, for we know our cause is just, and right must win. And you men of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in order to put this program over, and anatch, as it were, from the hands of foreign invasion the land of our forefathers, must seek and secure the co-operation of your women so that doors now closed against us may be opened.

N. L. I have been for years, and expect to remain so. I wish to ask you through your paper, "How long is the Black Race going to remain hypocrites?" They tell you that God is just, that prayer is the key of Heaven, that faith unlocks the door, that the faith of a grain of mustard seed will move a mountain, that Gideon with 300 men put thousands to flight, that Joshua prayed and the sun stood still for three hours, that David killed Goliath, that Moses parted the Red Sea with a rod. They believe all this, yet they say that Africa cannot be redeemed. I learn that we are four billion strong. Now, if the prayers of these have not availed, what is the matter? There is something wrong somewhere. God is the same for He says, I chance not—nask, and you shall receive—Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My word "abdeth forever." Who IS wrong? If our prayers and appeals for mercy have not unlocked, the door for Marcus Garvey, something must be back. If we love him, we will leave, nothing undone to secure his release. If the South African whites can call for more whites, why not the black Africans call for more blacks? Are not the Jews rebuking Palestine? When God himself the creation, he placed nation on the land that He had prepared for him, Africa was for the black man. If it will come back to him through God, will. Then let him be a man and keep it. Let him be a man and make himself a home of his own in which to serve God in his own way. The American black man has not even a name of his own; it was given him by the white American. What a poor excuse for a man! Let us of the U. N. I. A. set a pace. Put our ships to sea and return home so that God can bless us. For He says, 'When I come again every nation shall be in the and that Figure or be grushed under the feet of men.' Arise I say, you four million sons and daughters of Ham and secure the release of Marcus Garvey. Then work out God's bidding. Build a government of your own and give praise unto Him under your own vine and fig tree, in your God-given land, where you can wave high the Red, the Black and the Green. Let everyone answer this call—the call of four million. The call of the blood to be true to yourselves, your race, your leader and your God. For Black we live, for Black we will die. St. Louis, Mo.

To the Editor of The Negro World: It is a pleasure to take a retrospective view of this gigantic movement which has attracted world-wide attention in a comparatively short space of time. There is nothing on earth able to keep on unchallenged and sweeping influence and power because it was born and is being nurtured in the hearts of an oppressed people. Many efforts were made prior to the birth of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to get Negroes to gather in some sort of world-wide organization. But these efforts all failed because there was not enough incentive to draw the people together. Then came the U. N. L. A. with its vision of natshood and the seemingly impossible was accomplished in an incredibly short time. The U. N. I. A. has continuously suffered setbacks, disappointments, embarrassments, aprescription and every known form of discouragements. But in spite of them all this great organization matches on. The enemy press with all of its destructive propaganda has been unable to discourage the member. This is proven by the fact that the organization is taking in new members and setting up new divisions daily and weekly. The wise Negro will join the ranks of this great organization and get to work. Members should put forth greater efforts, have a stronger determination and he more firmly resolved to put over the program than ever before. The soundness of the organization has been tested and it has stood the test. We cannot piece the still of the future, but the success in the past should make us more determined to press on. C. D.

These three forenamed qualities are closely related, the second's force being greatly developed by the influence of the first and last. (4) "Gross frivolity." This is more evidenced in the actions of the more illiterate class. However, when one withonly a spark of elementary education finds himself or herself, getting into a frivolous habit, every effort should be made to do away with it. (5) "We poder too much on the past." Pondering on the past, blights the future. Opportunities lost can never be regained. All we can do is to make them serve as experience, with which to face the future. We can to a great extent do away with these weaknesses if we would apply the proper treatment. Do so. They are the cause of our present state. The opposite to them all is noticed in the life of our worthy president-general, Marcus Garvey. It is that which appreciation of God's creature; it is that confidence in himself and in his race; it is that undying racial love—it is those lofty ideals and that strong hope for the future which has enabled him, irrespective of obstacles, to promote and suffer for the movement which will assure the survival of the Negro peoples of the world who are killing on the borders of eternal degradation.

The white man has reached this phage by holding fast to the things that mean power and influence in a world which recognize nothing except and in which none but the fit survive. The Negro is capable of mastering anything which has been produced in the past or present. The wonders of present-day civilization are no great problem to him. Circumstances over which they have no control have made Negroes blewers of wood and drawers of water. These things have gone on for hundreds of years. But out of the blackness of design, stepped the Honorable Marcus Garrigue with his message of hope for his people. With his clear vision he has seen and pointed the way to racial success and accomplishment. They have placed this great leader in prison. From his lipply cell he is calling us, insisting us to hold fast until he returns to us to complete his work of conquering 400,000,000 members of his race. It is well that the Negro is waking up to the fact that his freedom is only nominal. The Universal Neuro Improvement Association teaches us that we will never be free until we are nation with a country of our own. The problem is a very grave one and sometimes it seems as if we can never solve it. But those with faith and understanding know that God can help us to solve it. So the faithful will continue to work with faith and hope until we reach the goal. And when the Honorable Marcus Carney returns to us he will find the hope of racial courage bursting brighter than ever. THOMAS H. BELL, S. St. Louis, Md. Some Things That Stand In the Way of the Race To the Editor of The Nexro World: The average Nexro is a possessor of certain destructive qualities which serve, and if not blemished, will continue to serve as certified impediments in his march to progress. Some of these qualities are as follows: (1) "Self-depreciation," which means to lessen of humane one's abilities, is plainly evidenced by the actions of the average Nexro everywhere.

DR. STODDARD, AT NEW YORK MEETING, ACCUSED OF AGGRAVATING MENACE OF BATTLE BETWEEN EAST AND WEST BY FANNING HATRED NEW YORK. Jan. 10.—The Eastern menace to Western civilization, with a background fraught with dire portent for the West, was freely discussed yesterday at the luncheon of the Foreign Policy Association by two men perhaps best qualified to discuss it.

Dr. Cornellus accused his opponent and his followers of "encendering and intensifying race hatred." Referring to the recent conflict between the French and the Riffians, Dr. Stoddard said: "From Mexico to China, the entire East today is simmering with profound unrest. More than once in my travels I have met representative men who believed in a general uprising of the East against the West and who admitted brazenly that they were working to bring about such a development." Dr. Cornelius, after pointing out that Western civilization had made economies, rather than morals its central factor, said: "The destructive aspect of Western civilization are making the East lose faith in the integrity of Western nations. "If we allow trade and commerce, interest and profit to continue to be the guiding principles of our statesmanship, then troubles are sure to en- PEP P-E-P For Men Only For two years I suffered intense stomach pain, intestinal indigestion and constipation.

"In my opinion the menace to Western civilization is not so much the East as Madison Grant, Lothrop Standard and those who follow in their train. I consider them a menace to Western civilization" because their writings are turning it from the 'melting pot', which was supposed to fuse the different nations into a boiling pot of races by intensifying race hatred. "They are a menace to Western civilization because they will bring about a war of color which will be even more deadly and more disastrous than the World War.
