The Negro World

VOL. XXI. No. 24 Selfishness and Greed of Powerful Nations Compel Negroes to Revise Their Methods The world is on fire. The whole human race is gone mad. Man has lost his reason, and now we are in for an age of ruin and destruction that will upset the efforts of the human race for the last five hundred years. All this has been brought about by the drunken greed for power on the part of certain races and nations. Everywhere you look, and on every side you turn; you come in contact with the undermining influence of the one race against the other; the one nation against the other. It is apparent that truth, justice, love, 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 that we must take on the spirit of the age, harmful though we know it to be, but we are so situated that we can do no better than meet the other fellow on his own grounds. One part of the world is determined to upset the other part: One race is determined to destroy the other for its own selfish existence, and so in this rigid competition for a place and for life we can do no better than strike out in our own direction to save ourselves from the wreck and ruin that threatens. The Universal Negro Improvement Association steps out speaking in unmistakable terms on behalf of our own group, and in language forcible and uncompromising we call upon each and every member of our race to gird his armor on and be ready for the fray. It is no use talking about settling this human question with prayers and words. It cannot be done; it can only be settled by force. This is the only argument that the races and nations of the world understand in the twentieth century. England is speaking with force, France is speaking with force, the United States of America is speaking with force as its language, and the races or the people who cannot present to the world organized force will be naturally dragged under in the tidal wave of race oppression. England and France are more determined than ever to exploit and subjugate their darker citizens and subjects, their professions notwithstanding. It is no use looking to them in the sense of the larger humanity, because they have lost their Christian souls. Englishmen and Frenchmen no longer think of humanity in the terms of Christian brotherhood, but in the terms of pounds and francs. The Parting of the Ways Indeed, we have come to the turning and the parting of the ways. The black race needs look no longer to any other race for succor, for advice or for political help. We must naturally look to ourselves. More and more we become disappointed in all our hopes; disappointed in all our ambitions, depending as we have been upon others. In America we are gradually being thrown off politically and disappointed socially and economically. Within the British Empire we are only the scapegoats of a sober and seasoned diplomacy. In France we are only made the dupes of a crafty statesmanship that hopes to profit by the ignorance of those whom they deceive. How, therefore, can we depend upon others? Doing so will mean nothing else but our present and future ruin, such as has been in the past. The days of slavery are not gone forever. Slavery is threatened for every race and nation that remains weak and refuses to organize its strength for its own protection. Slavery has no day and no time. It is present when the strong race desires to oppress the weaker race. Negroes, be careful of what you do today! No one can tell what our condition will be tomorrow, whether it be slavery or not; if we do not strive toward the goal of racial strength, of racial power, political and national independence. Let us rally around the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green, the universal emblem of African redemption. Let us stand by the colors as Englishmen stand by the Union Jack, as Frenchmen stand by the Tri-Colors, and as Americans stand by the Stars and Stripes. For us, let the vision be fair, let the vision be one of hope and encouragement. We need not look back to the darkness. Africa shall be redeemed. Negroes shall be emancipated, but all depends upon our present deeds, our present acts. Shall we go backward? The Universal Negro Improvement Association answers "No!" We have come upon the stage in time to save the entire race from destruction. All that we want is that each and every one will enter the fold of this great and noble organization and let us unitedly march to our destiny. Turn your attention not away from Africa, because Africa shall be the only salvation and solution of this great problem of race in America and the Western World. Africa, the land of our fathers, beckons us home, if not in person, in sympathy, in sentiment and in moral and financial help, so why shouldn't we help Mother Africa to redeem herself? Why shouldn't we help her to throw off the shackles placed upon her by an alien civilization and alien races? Why shouldn't we help her put to flight the enemy within her doors who seeks her very vitals? Oh, Mother Africa! Oh, land of our Fathers! to thee we come; to thee we pledge our lives, our manhood, our strength, our all, because through thee, and thee alone, we see the avenue to happiness, to peace, to everlasting glory. Negroes, again we appeal to you to come together. Come together in America, the West Indies, South and Central America and let 400,000,000 of us march forward to the sacred duty that falls upon us, that of saving humanity, that of salvaging a sinful world.

HAVE ELIMINATED THE WORD "CAN'T" FROM THEIR VOCABULARY THE MINDS OF THE NEGRO MASSES CANNOT BE POISONED BY SELFISH FEW. SAYS HON. F. LEVI LORD IN FORCEFUL ADDRESS THE NEW NEGRO—THE NEGRO OF THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION—HAS NO USE FOR "IT CAN'T BE DONE" Even as the Pilgrim Fathers Laid the Foundation of This Great Republic, So Negro Pioneers Will Build a Nation in Africa Hon. W. A. Wallace Points Lesson from China's Rebirth —Mr. C. James Tells What the U. N. J. A. Has Achieved NEW YORK, Liberty Hall, Sunday Night, January 15. There was great rejoicing here tonight on the occasion of the weekly mass meeting of the New York Local—the first since the Supreme Court handed down its decision voiding the sale of the property. This sale, as recounted in the last issue of The Negro World; was persisted in, although the money, which was demanded on pain of mortgage foreclosure, was tendered before the amazing sale proceedings. Hon. F. Levi Lord, Chancellor, announced that everything had been settled and that the mortgagees were forced, though reluctantly, to accept the money in accordance with the Court's order. And he added, amid cheers and laughter, that those who were seeking to embarrass the organization by trying to get possession of its property would have to sit up some more nights fashioning out a new scheme. The keynote of the meeting, which was presided over by Hon. W. A. Wallace, Secretary-General, in the absence of Hon. Fred. A. Toote, Acting President General, was the voicing of the determination of the membership of the organization to permit no obstacles to stand in the way of the fulfilment of the program. The word "Can't" had been stricken from the New Negro's vocabulary, and under God and the Hon. Marcus Garvey the ultimate redemption of Africa was a certainty. Ispiring addresses were delivered by Hon. W. A. Wallace, Hon. F. Levi Lord, Mr. Charles James, 2nd Vice-President of the New York Local, and Mrs. Ina Alexander, Lady President of the Philadelphia Division. CARNEGIE HALL Wednesday Evening, January 26, at 8:30 ROLAND HAYES TENOR TICKETS AT-BOX OFFICE MAJOR & CASLIN PIANO Hon. F. Levi Lord, chancellor, spoke as follows: "Remember, when I first heard the Hon. Marcus Garvey preaching the new doctrine of a redeemed Africa, for Negroes in the motherland and Negroes abroad, there were several Negroes—the so-called elite, the so-called four hundred, the so-called educated and the so-called intelligent who said that the doctrine preached by Marcus Garvey may be all right as to the local activities of the association, whose objects he is trying to promote, but as to the ultimate objective of the Universal Negro improvement Association, the redemption of Africa, it can't be done. And so, I am going to speak for a few minutes tonight on the 'Can't Negroes' "These Negroes said, It is impo Quick Relief for Stiff Joints and Sore Muscles Johnson's Belladonna Plaster Makes You Feel Fine Almost at Once Don't limp, around in agony any longer, when a Johnson's Belladonna Plaster will give you almost instant relief. "Don't be discouraged because either remedies have brought you only temporary relief. Try a Johnson's Belladonna Plaster which gives lasting benefits—warmth, support and gentle, continuous massage to the sore, contracted muscles and stiff joints. The beneficial effect of Johnson's Belladonna Plaster is lasting because the medication is held in full strength directly against the skin over the sore, lame parts and is continually absorbed as long as the plaster remains on the body. If your muscles and joints are stiff and are from work or accidental work from exposure, Rheumatism or any other cause, got a Johnson's Belladonna Plaster at the drug store and put it on—you will marvel at its quick and wonderful effectiveness. Sold by all drug stores. CARNEGE sible: "How can it be done?" With Africa partitioned among the various countries of Europe, including Germany at the time, with England having a strong foothold in South Africa and East and West Africa, with Belgium in possession of a large part of Africa, with Spain holding a portion, with Italy a portion, it was impossible for the Universal Negro Improvement Association to do anything for Negroes by way of the redemption of Africa, many of them believed in the program partially, but as to the greater objective of the association, it simply can't be done." "The association continued its activities all down the limo and about everything attempted by the association there was a group which said, 'it can't be done.' And we still find that we have to contend, and contend very, very seriously with that can't group of Negroes. If 400,000,000 Negroes tonight could only eliminate from their vocabularies that word 'can't' in their belief that something can't be done, they would be doing much toward helping the accomplishment of that thing that they believe can't be done. The Pilgrim Fathers' Example When the Pilgrim Fathers set sail from the mother country, running away from religious persecution and seeking to establish a new religion as freedom, believing there was a country somewhere in the New World where they could exercise their ambition, if they had believed at that time and said to themselves that it could not be done, the United States of America would not be what it is today, but all thanks are due to the Pilgrim Fathers who believed that it could be done. And we-of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we the loyal members who are not always pessimistic, but who have awaoping over us that wave of optimism as to the ultimate objective of the association and as to the belief that history will repeat itself, it is our opinion, it is our belief—and no one can erase that opinion from our minds—that as to the future of the Universal Negro In- provement A. *station*, as to the question of Africa for the Africans at home and abroad, we believe that it can be done. (Applause) "It cannot be done in the opinion of these Negroes who believe that nothing difficult can be done, and for them, it will never be done, but to those who believe that obstacles are but to be overcome it can be done and it will be done. March of the Tresolites March of the Israelites "When the children of Israel were on their march through the land of Egypt on to the Promised Land, there were a few doubtful Thomases who believed that the thing could not be done, but Moses, believed that it could be done, and under the leadership of Moses, directed by the Great Jehovah, even with many obstacles in their way—obstacles before them obstacles on either side and an enemy in pursuit—they pressed on, and the thing was done, in spite of the murmurs of some against the leadership of Moses. "And even though many members of the Negro race may murmur at times against the leadership of Garvoy, Garvoy, deep down in his soul, believes that, Africa can be redeemed, and many of his followers believe also that it can be redeemed. And so the Universal Negro Improvement Association tonight sends out the cry to the can't tolerate that 400,000,000 Negroes believe that, Africa can be redeemed, that they intend to redeem it, and that it will be redeemed. (Applause.)" Current Events "I wish to say to you, members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, that you need at this time to watch the signs of the time and to take a peep at current events and you will for yourselves that no nation tonight is sleeping on a bed of roses. The United States is seriously engaged in assisting Nicaragua in the settlement of an internal dispute. On the one side is the United States lending assistance to one group, and on the other side is supposed to be Mexico lending assistance to another group fighting for power in Nicaragua, and heaven knows who is really behind the United States on the one hand and who is really behind Mexico on the other hand. And side by side with this we find things are not too comfortable in Europe and Asia. In China we find America's position is not very secure, and Great Britain's position is not very secure, and only time will tell the part Japan is playing behind the entire thing. Hon? Marcus Garvey's Warning "The Hon. Marcus Garvey has been peaching to Negroes now for eight years to wake up and take advantage of anything that may present itself in your march toward the redemption of Africa, but, be it said to our sham- many Negroes are still asleep; some still believe - Marcus Garvey - to be crazy, to be a fanatic. But I repeat that those Negroes who are content with saying that it cannot be done are an infiler species of the race. The only thing such Negroes believe can be done is crap-shooting and play- ing pool, but tell them about build- ing a nation, about forming a government, and their ready retort is, 'It can be done.' "Where are members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association first cane on the scene the word 'cant' came readily to our lips also, but, thanks to the teachings of Garry Vernay, we have obliterated that word, and we now say that if the white man of England can do it, if the white man of Germany can do it, if the white man of Belgium can do it, if the Italian man can do it, if the American white man can do it, if the Chinese man can do it, if the Japanese can do it, then the Negro can also do it, and I have no sympathy or respect for the Negro who tells me. It can't be done." BORN IN THE NEGRO "I believe that the Negro can do anything any other race or nation has done, and the sooner the Negro gets to realize that he is blessed with the same five senses as the other fellow, the better will his position be in the world; but so long as you believe it can't be done, so long will you remain the underdog, respected by no one. "So those that have not already, begin now and eliminate the word 'can't' from your vocabulary. And under the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green within the ranks of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and under the leadership of the Mon. Marcus Garvey and under the directorship of the Great Johovah, the members and officers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are now saying that we knew that Africa can be redeemed, and we are going to do it or report to God the reason why." (Applause.) MR. CHARLES JAMES ADDRESS M. CHARLES SAMES ADDRESS Mr. Charles James, Gebond Vice-President of the New York Local, was the next speaker. He said: "As I hastened to the Chancellor a few minutes ago a little poem which I read some years ago ran in my mind. He want like this. "As on through life's journey we go day by day. From duty half-shift, every task he will shirk. No bread on his board, no meal in his bag. His house is a ruin, his coat is a raak. "And so as the Chancellor was speaking, that bit of poetry came on the and I felt very much inspired by that address. I am going to speak to you for a few minutes on 'What has the Universal Negro Improvement Association accomplished.'" "As we travel through the streets of the communities in which we live and we come in contact with people who are interested or uninterested in the Universal Negro Improvement Association: there is a question that is asked of us who have this programme at heart—men and women are inquiring today. What has the Universal Negro Improvement Association accomplished in the space of eight years?" Accomplished a Revolution "It is for you, my friends, who have seen the gleaming vision of an African redeemed, through no other source of channel than the Universal Negro improvement Association to answer them and say that if all the failures of the Association were to be counted, its gains and profits in turning the Negro right about from the wrong direction, bringing him back to his senses, letting him know that he is a human being, feeling him know that he is a man and must live where men must live, for outweigh any failures. If the Association has not accomplished anything else it has wrought a wonderful work in bringing the Negro race into a state of consciousness of self. "The Universal Negro Improvement Association, as we see it, is the only Negro organization that commands the unintended admiration of humanity, white and black. It is the only organization that commands the forces of humanity to obey its sentiments. It was the only organization that could organize a delegation and send it to the League of Nations, not asking for the independence of Negroes in America, not asking for the independence of Negroes in the West Indies, not asking for the African Negro's independence, but asking for the independence of 400,000,000 Negroes. An Epoohal Event "It was the Universal Negro Improvement Association that brought into being the first stewardship corporation in the Negro race. It was the Universal Negro Improvement Association that put the first black captain on a ship sailing the high seas, letting the white man know that Negroes were not only to be porters, that the women were not only to be sweepers of floors and cleaners of pots and pans, but that they were also capable of doing the big things of life. "It was the Universal Negro Improvement Association that brought the motherland fortitude to mind. We have been heating around the bush with our financial orders and our lodges, and we have seen that all they can do is take care of us when we are sick, bury us when we are dead and have us parade on the avenue decked out in tide feathers. But it was the Universal Negro Improvement Association that focused our attention upon our motherland, reminding us that we were originally Negroes, born on the continent of Africa, and preparing us to make ready to return there and live and enjoy the respect of men.

Do I mean what I say? That is the question, and you must answer it. For yourselves. No white man can answer it for you. No white man will cheer Marcus Garvey in his determination to face our race from bondage, but it is for us to show our appreciation of him by standing closer to the Universal Negro Improvement Association, believing that it is the only avenue of success for the Negro peoples of the world. Holding Up the Leader's Hands "I am asking you, my friends, in the few brief seconds left to stick more closely in the Association. It is yours. We may not be able to appreciate if fully because we are too near to it, but let us keep pace with the times. Let us be loyal to the Association and to its founder. Let us hold up the hands of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. It was Christ, the leader of the Christian movement, who said, 'If I be lifted up, I will draw all men into Me.' The Universal Negro Improvement Association cannot thus unless Marcus Garvey is held up as the burning burner guiding the Association to its destiny, and, my friends, let us hold the fort. keep up the right, and "the world will respect our attitude" (Ampiause). A VISITOR IS INSPIRED A VISITOR IS INSPIRED Mrs. Ima Alexander, Lady President, of the Philadelphia division, was next introduced. In a few well-chosen re- marks she expressed her plea to as- being with the splendid members of the mother division and assured her hearers she would take back to Phil- adelphia, which good one hundred per- cent with them, the Association and the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the great-inspiration which she had gathered sidle she was among them. HON. W. A. WALLACE'S ADDRESS Hon. W. A. Wallace, secondary general, was the next lieutenant. He said, "I will speak to you to remind on the subject, 'Some Wholeons' That Come Home to Roost.' I have an article here that has been given up to read which, I think, will be of great interest to everyone here assembled and which will give inspiration to you who have the ideal of nationhood for this race of ours which you remember the conditions under which the country occupies its article in written has been honoring, the strongholds and various powers and there, the sole unpaid staff, and no fourth. "The young Chipman has arrived, and this is the message that comes from him." The speaker here read an article which appeared in the New York Sunday American from the pen of Eunice Chen, foreign minister of the National Government in China, and which is reproduced on page two of this feature. Encouragement for Negroes Commenting on the article, Mr Wallace proceeded. "With the Chinaman awakened and determined to shed, as it were, his last drop of blood for the salvation of his country, giving a practical demonstration of what is necessary to save one's country, the Negro race, as numerous as the Chinese, should be encouraged all the more to hearken to the voice of Mangus Garvey as his teachers, 'African for the Africans at home and abroad'. "The various conventions that we have held here in Liberty Half from time to time have enunciated our program clearly, but there have been some who have failed to get the idea, to grasp the thought, and among those who have failed have been those who are classed as the 'super ten', and now that they have seen their mistakes they are endeavouring to enunciate it through other avenues. We are, however, glad that they are beginning to see the error of their ways. We know they would, for Marte Harvey told us long ago that the time would not be long when that would be compelled to yield to the truth. "And so we find today a statement coming from one of the foremost educators of Negroes. This is what Professor Kelly Miller says. Educated Negroes look for help outside the race and seek to stand in the cooling shade of the shadow of the white man institutions. That comes from one of the educated Negroes of today. He is indicting his educated brother for expecting the white man to give the race the things which will smell real motivation. He is telling his friend that, as Marrus Harvey said years ago, it is illly to expect the white man to lay at the Negroes feel the grand institutions he has built up for himself, the Negro must not expect the white man to pass over to the Negro the civilization and the population he has built up."

Negroes to Aid Him in Fight for Justice and Fairplay Says Aim Is to Stille Freedom of the Press by Silencing the Emancipator, the Only Labor Organ in the Islands—Family of Five Suffering While the Oppressor Does His Work In the following letter addressed to the Negro Press of America, Mr. Rothschild Francis, the persecuted editor of The Emancipator, Virgin Islands, pleads for further steps to be taken to arouse public sentiment in his behalf, and recites some further acts of persecution which imperil his liberty: In your SYSTEM run down?

A demand by J. P. Harden of Chicago, a Negro lawyer, that the Fullman Company be ordered to pay him $2,000 damages because, as he alleged, an agent of the company released on July 5, 1923, to furnish him Fullman accommodations from Atlanta to Chicago, was effected in a decision under public index by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The action was brought by Harden under Section 2 of the Interstate Commerce law, which the commission pointed out, simply prohibits charging one person more than another for a like-and contemporaneous service. It was held that the refusal could not have violated this section and also that the complaint, offered in evidence in support of his claim for damages. Undue prejudice in violation of Section 2 of the law, the commission stated: had not been alleged or established by proof, and added further that "we are without jurisdiction to award penalty or exemplary damages." The action had attracted some attention, as Harden not only sought damages, but asked the commission to require that the "Pullman" company "cause and desist from such unjustly discriminatory practices" against colored persons, generally. The complainant's unsupported testimony was to the effect that a ticket agent at the Atlanta Union Station had refused to sell him a reservation and had told him to apply at the next ticket window. A second agent Hardon changed, although he had informed a ticket to a white person, informed him that "we do not sell Pullman tickets to migrants down here," and "in defensive and threatening language told the complainant to get away from the window." In the course of its decision the commission called attention to testimony in a somewhat similar case by the general agent of the Dugman company, who stated that the company made no distinction in favor of white passengers against colored and that colored persons were furnished with accommodations, provided they were available. PARIS, Jan. 12 — French has serving their year or year and a half in the army won't have to roll their own any more. Each soldier, under a new order, will get a package of twenty cigarettes every three days, instead of the customary package of smoking tobacco twice a month. The profit of the government tobacco monopoly can be seen from the price at which the authorities will sell those cigarettes to the War Ministry. TON Is your AIRTEM ran down? In your BLOOM dying up?

I have written American friends to raise the money for the fine. Our poor people, we are putting on this noble fight for justice, are without work at present. So serious are the present aggressive fines placed upon certain people that Capitol Hill, Centre, centre had to introduce a bill in the Council to modify them. Scenically he has the support of a majority of the Council but the Naval Governor is imposed in the measure. He is quoted as having said that the judiciary must raise enough to support itself. Should the friends fall to raise this amount I will be compelled to remain in jail for 250 days. Under no circumstances will I ask the Governor to continue this sentence.

The Universal Negro Improvement Association believes that no white man is good and honest enough to govern or rule the Negro, and no Negro is good and honest enough to govern or rule the white man, because Nature made them ethnically separate and distinct; with their own selfish, respective, racial conceptis, idealisms, purpose and destiny. They are positively different and morally dissimilar. If the office however by laziness, neglect, indifference or greed thinks himself economically, politically, or otherwise, under the influence or dictatorship of the other, then he has forfeited Nature's claim and the right to universal respect and protection. By becoming a being without pride or self-respect socially, politically, economically or morally, he has contributed to his own weakness and delinquency, and any abuse or advantage taken of him should be tolerated because he subscribes to and encourages his own racial inferiority. who have dreams of a great Spanish-speaking union in the Western Hemisphere." President Coolidge and the leaders of foreign affairs in Congress are closer together than they were before the President's special message was submitted to them, and Senator Borah's opposition to a staff policy in dealing with Mexico and the Nicaraguan situation has lost much of its point; still there is a large public sentiment which does not approve of the American attitude of aggression and dictatorship in the domestic affairs of Mexico, Nicaragua and the other Latin American States. That the United States has vast interests in Latin America to protect, the Panama Canal being the most important of these, is well understood, but there is a deep undercurrent of public sentiment that those interests could better be promoted and protected by a mutual understanding and cooperation of the United States with the Latin American States concerned than by warlike intervention in the domestic affairs of those States, as in Nicaragua. The large States of Latin America are bound to sympathize with the smaller ones, which have felt the weight of the United States in settling their home affairs. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, has a very large number of members and well wishers in Latin America, who are vitally concerned in the maintenance of peace and amicable intercourse with the United States. The trade and financial interests of the two peoples are of vast volume and moment, which would be jeopardized if there should, unfortunately, come war between them. In all of these matters nations are very proud and sensitive, and it does not take much to light the fires of destruction which it is never easy to control. The give and take policy in foreign relations is still the sanest and safest and most humane. DEGRADING LABOR IN AFRICA. THE East Indians have a profound contempt and distrust of the European and American economic system, which pits the strong against the weak; the rich against the poor, flesh and blood against the machine, and places the dollar above the worker who makes the dollar, but is denied by the competitive system of his proper share of the dollar. Everywhere in Christendom the rich grow richer and poor grow poorer, the law of supply and demand being controlled for the most part by those who have much as against those who have little. The laws are made and enforced in favor of the former as against the latter. The theory of the law is that all stand upon equality, but this is far from being true in practice, even when the cost of litigation is not considered, and it can hardly be ignored. The wealthy liigant has the advantage over the poor one in most courts, especially those of first instance, and the courts of higher jurisdiction are usually dominated by judges who were corporation lawyers before they were made judges. The same is true of legislators, of law makers. And corporations have no souls. They are instituted and operated to make a profit out of the labor and consuming mass and they usually make it, by fair or foul means; and are unheld in so doing by the courts. Not long ago an invitation was extended to the American Negro to emigrate to Liberia, as there was plenty of work to be had at 24 cents a day. That is a statement attributed to a Liberian cabinet minister, who is one of those sponsoring the Liberian bank, capitalized at $1,000,000; to 40 per cent. of the stock of which American Negroes are to be asked to subscribe. That is about the wage received by the common laborer of China, the Philippines and East India, in all of which countries, we are told, labor is so abundant as to make it cheaper to work it than to work machinery. The writer of this article has seen this to be true in Manila, Philippines. What must people who receive such wages for their labor live on? How can they support themselves and families on any such pittance? But they do it. The native wage earners in British Africa receive about the same rate of wages, while those in other states of European Africa are said to receive less In British, South Africa a persistent effort has been made by the government to prevent native Negro wage earners from engaging in the skilled trades, which they desire to reserve for white laborers, while in unskilled work the native Negro is reduced to the smallest possible wage and subjected to living and working conditions which reduce him to the condition of a wage slave. The native Negro is fighting the labor degradation and has the sympathy and support of many, white workers. It begins to look as if the next war in British Africa will be fought strictly on the economic principle of the right of the Negro natives to live on the land and to get out of their labor sufficient to suffice their wants. The disposition and the policy of the European whites to confiscate the land and enslave and degrade the Negro in his labor and living is producing a life and death struggle between whites and blacks. The Negro has caught the spirit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and is learning to organize under his own leadership and to demand what is just and fair in social, civil and economic government. With the building of a Florida station on the last day of the year, 1926, the total number of such deaths for 1926 was raised to 31.

ENEMIES WITHIN AND ENEMIES WITHOUT. THFRE are always two sorts of enemies which individuals and organizations have to contend with. "The Bible classifies them as enemies within and enemies without, inferentially. "A man's enemies," it says, "are those of his own household," the inference logically being that if he has enemies within, there must be enemies without to co-operate with each other to accomplish the desired purpose. If we have no enemies in our own house, logically, we shall have no enemies on the outside of the house. Many of our Negro newspapers have been advising inembers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to stop fighting among themselves. Much of the advice we regard as hypocritical but even so, with that which may be regarded as sincere, is worth considering. We have been doing too much fighting among ourselves and thus given our enemies clubs, with which to beat our heads. We have too much to do to add to all fighting among ourselves. The enemies on the outside are legion and we cannot successfully chuckmate and defeat them unless we are at peace among ourselves and united in the purpose to promote and protect the interests of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Think it over THE BRILLIANT "WHY I AM A GARVEYITE" CONTEST We are sure the readers of The Negro World followed with interest and proft the brilliant "Why I Am a Garveyite" Contest, which came to a close in the issue of The Negro World of January 8. The contest was long drawn out, because there were so many who took part in it, but it was "a feast of reason and a flow of soul," as the saying is, not only to the comparatively few who took part in it but to the thousands in all parts of the world who read after the contestants and digested what they had to say with the same enthusiasm they would have carried into it as if they themselves had been the contestants. They were a part of it, a very important part of it, as the audience always is, for the controlling and convincing of the opinions for which all contestants strive, and the approval and applause of which is always sweet. And which of us does not appreciate approval, applause, for the work done, the service rendered? Few, indeed. It is as the spice of life, the absence of which would make striving without a purpose. Those who followed the contest faithfully, and who did not know before they began to do so why they are Garveyites had their knowledge enlarged and their faith sustained by the fervor and the earnestness of the essayists, who being convinced themselves, made it easy to convince others. The successful contestants were widely separated in time and place, but as one in devotion to President-General Marcus Garvey and the things in Negro life for which he stands. The first prize was won by Mr. Joseph Lloyd of Victoria de las Tunas, Cuba, and the second by Mr. Victor G. Cohen of Washington, D. C. "I am a Garveyite because he has taught me race consciousness, something I had lost for more than three hundred years." says Mr. Lloyd, and "he has demonstrated to the world that the Negro is capable of following his own elected leadership regardless of what others may say, declares Mr. Cohen. We are all stronger in the faith because of the reasons given by those who took part in the contest. In union there is strength, and in a multitude of counsel there is much wisdom." Those who stand together and take counsel among themselves have already won a great victory. ANGLO-AMERICAN AND LATIN-AMERICAN WAR CLOUDS THE good relations of the United States and Mexico have been greatly strained during the past ten days by developments in Nicaragua and the attitude of the Latin American States towards the aggressive attitude of the United States, which they resent as being imperious and not within the bounds of the international right of States to regulate their domestic affairs without outside interference and dictation. The attitude of the United States towards Mexico has been aggravated for Latin Americans by a special message to Congress by President Guilfidge, in which he alleges that Mexico has interfered in Nicaragua to the extent of aiding and abetting a revolutionary movement against the established government, with which the United States is in sympathy, and in which he stoutly maintains that the United States will go the limit in protecting American lives and property in Nicaragua. A well informed tone on Latin American conditions and opinion has the following to say, and to which President Guilfidge's special message gives additional emphasis to wit. "Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Salvador, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, all have felt the weight of North America's financial or naval power in one way or another in the last quarter century. "Latin America has seen the gradual encroachment of North American power and dominance into the South year by year. It has seen Cuba, Porto Rico, Panama, Haiti become, virtual United States dependencies, with indomitous new that Nicaragua is soon to go the same way. (From the Trenton (N.J.) Times) Sir...The imposing military display here on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Trenton, was remarkable to me in more than one respect, that is to say, there was no colored men participating except a chauffeur. The American policy with reference to the U. S. Navy presents a colored man being anything higher that a mess attendant, cook or coal passer now, but Philippines, Indians and Hawaiians are received on the same voting as whites, and some of those people were in the parade. Several of our colored citizens, and some of the more intelligent ones at that, consolled themselves with the thought, openly expressed, that there were no colored soldiers serving this country in the Revolutionary War. I beg use of this space to refer them, and white citizens as well, to the following books and publications, most of which can be found in our local public library: Nell on "Colored Patriots of the Revolution," Livermore's "Opinions of the Founders of the Republic on Negroes as Slaves, as Citizens and as Soldiers," Part II: William, "History of the Negro Race of American," Vol I, Chapters XXV-XXI; Washington, "The Story of the Negro." Vol I, Chapter XV; Rider, "The Story of a Rhode Island Slave Refinement In the Revolutionary War." A perusal of the above works shows that there were altogether about 8,000 Negro soldiers employed by the Americans in the Revolution; that there was an average of 35 colored soldiers, in each regiment, and that on the 24th of August, 1778, there were 775 Negroes under the immediate command of General Washington. Connecticut, New Hampshire, New York and Rhode Island furnished regular loytes of colored troops. They were found in all branches of the patriot army. Hessian officer, under date of October 5, 1773, wrote "The Negro can take the field instead of the master and, therefore, no regiment is to be seen in which there are not Negroes in abundance." Some of the most heroic deeds of the war of Independence were performed by black men. Samuel Lawrence, a prominent white citizen of Groton. Mass, led a company of Negroes at the Battle of Bunker Hill. Peter Salem and Solomon Poir, both Negroes, signally distinguished themselves at this battle, both earning, public recognition. Negro soldiers formed the bulk of the rear guard in holding off the British after the defeat at the Battle of Long Island, very few of them escaping death or capture. At the battle of Savannah, a regiment of Negroes and mulattoes, raised by Cunit D'Estalig at San Domingo, covered the retreat of the French and American armies, saving them from annihilation. Most of the men in that regiment later led the uprising, that drove the French out of Halti. In going about this State, I meet many colored families which boast of Revolutionary War heroes. I was lately presented with a mucket used by a colored soldier in the Battle-of Monmouth by one of the Conover family at Matawan. When LaFayette returned to this country in 1824, he openly expressed his regrets that the slaves in this country had not been freed a view of their service as soldiers in the Revolution. This letter is written merely for the purpose of correcting the historical outlook many of us get by, not setting all or most of the facts out of the more important events that historians have no space to record. HOW NEW YORK VISITORS AMUSE THEMSELVES That substantial entertainment is sought by New Yorkers and visitors to this city is shown by the fact that 2,070,065 persons wont to the American Museum of Natural History during 1925. This is a considerable increase over the 847,875 total of the years ago. Of all the exhibits on display, motorites, an official staged, seem to hold the greatest fascination for visitors. Gems and minerals are second in public favor and the big mammals third. In explanation of the tremendous interest in motorites, it was said that great curiosity was stimulated in astronomy during the last year, the celestion being one of the moving causes. The story and metallic visitors from outer space make a strong appeal to the imagination of every one. As he gazes upon or touches the pitched projects from worlds millions of miles removed, the visitor cannot but experience a thrill as he considers the vastness of the universe. While it might be supposed that gems would be particularly appealing to women, there are just as many men interested in that exhibit. Museum officials say there is a general knowledge as to gem values, making the display one that all can appreciate and that in addition to this the unusual forms and the coloration hold the crowds. The big mammal hall, with its skeletons of dinosaurs, baleen therium, mammoths and other terrors of young world days, is always a place of fascination. The even increasing attendance at the museum may be attributed to the greater curiosity of national science among children. Through long collections and slides, used in museum exhibits, it is estimated that between five and six million children the most interested in natural history.

HEALTH TOPICS By DR, M. ALICE ASSERSON Of the New York tuberculosis and Health Association Once more the importance of vaccination against smallpox is brought home to us. Recently an outbreak of seven cases was discovered in Brooklyn. Most of the cases occurred among people who had never been vaccinated. In fact, Dr. Louis H. Hairis, Commissioner of Health for New York City, has stated that practically all of the smallpox which has occurred in New York City in the last twenty years has been among people who have not been vaccinated. Smallpox is a dread disease—not only because of this suffering it causes those who contract it and because it is often fatal, but also because it often causes *hidous blemishes* on the faces or people who have suffered from it and Fecovered. Yet a simple thing like vaccination can make a person immune to the disease for a period of seven years. Vaccination does not hurt and is an easy thing to have done. If you have not already had it done, go to your doctor NOW and be vaccinated and have your children vaccinated. If you cannot afford to have it done by a private physician go to one of the city's Department of Health Clinics and have it done. Every child should be vaccinated as soon as possible after he is six months old. Then it should be done every seven years from then on. Frequently two or three vaccinations make a person immune to smallpox for the rest of his life, but he should have himself tested for immunity to make certain of this. Vaccination is very simple and does not cause suffering, yet it is of the utmost importance because it is the only way of making oneself safe from smallpox and of stamping out epidemics of this dread disease.

The Average Span of Life Said to Be Greatly Increasing By Dr. Frank Grane Dr. Irving Fisher of Yale University says that the average span of life shortly will reach one hundred. Another scientist says it will be about seventy-five. There is no doubt that the average span of life is increasing. It used to be much smaller than it is. Most of our illustrious forefathers were old men at fifty. Now a man at that age is just in the prime of life. One of the modern problems is what to do with the flapper grandmother. She is being severely consonated by her granddaughter for being too lively. Nowadays a woman often "steps out" after she has passed the age of sixty. One of the causes of the increase of the average span is the prevention of disease due to researches by the use of the microscope, and by the efforts of medicien men. The ravages of yellow fever have been assuaged. Cholera and malaria have men mitigated, and the former plagues that used to bage, in cities have been done away with. It has been due largely to the increase in hygienic conditions in modern cities. Somebody called medievalism "civilization upon a dung heap." One of the things that strikes a traveler is the superior cleanliness of American cities and the attention they give to matters of sanitation. Time was when the water supply of almost every city was populated. Now the water supply of Rome and Naples is excellent. If people can be taught to live in hygienic surroundings, have plenty of exercise and sunshine, that proper food and keep their bowels open there is no doubt they will live longer. So far Bright's disease, hardening of the arteries and pernicious anemia, not to mention other diseases, have baffled the efforts of scientists. A now prevention of diphtheria, and one for measles, have been announced as probabilities. It might be mentioned here that much of the increase in the average span of human life has been due to the efforts of insurance companies.

EDUCATED NEGROES STANDING ALOOF FROM THE MASSES The Old and the New Generations Contrasted — Charity Complex Still Present—Looking for Help From Outside Race Rather Than Within In an article on "The Second Generation of College Bred Negroes," released for publication, Prof. Kelly Miller says, infer alia: "Broadly speaking there have been two generations of educated Negroes. For sharpness of differentiation, let us say that they are divided by the century mark, those graduating prior to 1900 represent the first generation, and those finishing since that date will represent the second generation. The two generations overlap and combine in many ways. Both comparison and contrast might seem inidious; they are both in the main the product of philanthropy and have the elemosynary complex. They look for help outside, the poor instead of from within. They both seek to stand in the cooling shade of the shadow cast by the white man's institutions rather than a place in the sun whereby they cast their own shadow. They both seek places on the white man's pay roll instead of making pay bills for others to seek. The chief function of the first generation was to demonstrate to the world that the race was capable of taking in the higher education; the second generation, must prove its ability to give it out. Up to nineteen hundred, there were probably fewer than one thousand Nugo college graduates—now there are ten times that number. Then a Negro college graduate from a Northern University was looked upon with admiration akin to amazement—now they are so common as to arpue no curious interest. The first generation had no background, scanty foundation; the second generation, a considerable amount of background and a cultural environment. The new issue is much more thoroughly educated in the letter, and technique than the older; but misses much of the power of the girl, and inspirations. "The call is to the surviving educated man and woman of the day, whether of the older or the new generation. They are challenged to meet the requirements of leadership and direction of the most estate involved in the possibilities of twelve million of their own race and kin.

The tasks which he essays does not in general appeal to the rank and file. Herein lies his greatest imbecility. For his function will remain unfulfilled until he projects his influence even unto the uttermost and the neithermost. The Catholic hierarchy reaches and stimulates the humblest Catholic in 'Christendom. The Jewish elite reaches and impresses every member within the household of Jewry. But the Negro elite stands separated from the mass life of his group by a gulf across which his influence scarcely leaps. most, easily chooses enthusiastic responses of the multitude, and yet they argue and sustain no, will popular emotion. Violent demonunciation of wrong with holding, out hope of desirability might be supposed to answer the slave to insurrection and the suppressed to rebellion. On the other hand, the pilots, the Pythianis, the Old Pellows and others whose leadership grows out of the masses, card their numbers by the hundreds of thousands and collect millions of money. In politics and industry we find the same lack of relationship. "It will not do for the college man to stand off in his impudent傲慢 and condemn the masses for failure to appreciate their exalted profiter of service. The masses have no educated merely mistrusts. The educated man and woman must devise some means and methods of reaching them, just as they are, without-one plus. Otherwise the higher education of the race will be pronounced a failure."

EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION BY "COMMITTEE OF TOO" Saturday, January 1, was a red letter day in New York at the First National Baptist Church, 85 East 128th street, where great crowds gathered for the celebration of the 64th anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation. Thirty a great number of noted people representing various walks of life in the audience, Many of them familiar with the freedom fight, be present on this occasion, which was given under the auspices of the Convent of One Hundred, Greater New York. Despoise the inclement weather and very cold church edifice the onthungarian run very high. Splendid addresses were delivered by Major R. R. Wright, of Philadelphia, and Rev. J. Summers. (Continued from page 42) the equator are responsible, for the suggestion in the latter part of Mr. Wood's report that the League will center its deliverations on continued exploitation of weaker peoples, bearing in mind the traditional right of nations to commemorate competition "along peaceful lines," if the league intends to equally divide the spoils of the earth between its members, nor rather than peace would result. An International Mind The New, Negro, thanks to Marcellis Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, has developed an international mind. He cannot think of economics as seen from the League's viewpoint without thinking of the virgin soil and earthy deposits which are divine-gifts to his fellowmen in Africa, Asia, South and Central America, and the islands of the sea. He cannot think of peace without thinking of a nation of his own in Africa to demand peace. He cannot think of commerce without thinking of ships manned, operated and controlled by black men for black men. Heinks economics with unwarranted stereotypes metted out to natives throughout Africa and India, with mob violence throughout the United States, with starvation and poverty in the West Indies and Central America, with the unemployment of young Negro manhood and womanhood who stood by world democracy in all ages. To Each Hia Own No good will result from such a conference unless the teeming millions of Africans, India and China are taken into its confidence. Their homelands supply the necessities of the national life of Loango members. We do not desire that the white man be deprived of his rights in a guest, but we demand that, as such, he keep within the limits of those rights that are his to enjoy. The darker races of the would demand that the white man rule his own house in Europe and America and legislate for the safety and welfare of the members thereof. In the same spirit, they demand that the principle no applied to their house in Africa and Asia. Nothing could be more human. It is an understanding that would in no way radically affect our friendship or the economic and commercial relationship to be mutually agreed upon by treaties and covenants, providing that the laws, customs and traditions of one house are religiously observed by the other. Will Not Be Complacent So long as imperialism reigns, so long as force is applied to confiscate the rights and properties of weaker peoples for the upkeep and comfort of the strong, so long will the world be one oriental field of blood and regrets. The Negro has always lived at peace with his fellowmen, but those who believe that he will be peaceful in face of a brazen attempt to deprive him of the necessities of life, and to the extent of giving up his economic and racial rights to Africa, have yet another starting discovery to record in rural evolution. The New Negro is not going to sit down and allow imperialism to trump him aside. He serves notice on the League of Nations that any economic conference which involves the wealth and produce of Africa in null and void unless he is conceded in the equation. The late Lord Ayeburu (tirk John Lubbock) wrote in the *Milestone of internationalism*: "The religion of Europe is not Christianity but the war of war." What signs the League will take to keep war within the bounds of commercial plurality are not displeased, but it is not premature to say that they will offer rather than offset causes for war. Commerce is a friend of humanity, but war is great an enemy. One helps war by providing a collar to the War and commerce. History presents no greater autonomistic principle than those. How the League is going to bridge the chasm will afford interest for all those dedicated to peace and happiness. Noisy Eating and Fine Table Manners The main cause of bad teeth, may Dr. Boyd K.

If the district is already properly covered we refer him to the agent there who may use him as a sub-agent. If there is no agent in that place who send him a copy of our form-letter "instructions" for the Guidance of Agents." In this letter are stated the rules he must live to if he wants the agency. live up to it if we owe the agency, who who knows his own mind would read these and if he can't agree with us either write and say so or leave the matter, alone. We find-how- over, that a good many people will take up the agency and start from the very beginning to ignore these rules. For the benefit of both the agent and the office staff we will take these rules-one by one and try to explain their true, meaning in simple words. The rules follow: (1) THE PRICE OF THE NEGRO WORLD This rule has only to do with price and will not be set down here for obvious reasons.

Since the preliminary meetings in June at which the African Society, the Colonial Office Education Committee, Academic des Sciences Coloniales (Paris), London School of Oriental Studies, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Anthropologie (Berlin), the South Africa Advisory Committee on Bantu Studies, and the Protestant and Roman Catholic Mission were represented, invitations have been issued to other associations to appoint representatives to the governing body. These include the 'universities' of Oxford, Cambridge, Cairo Town and Wilwatersian. Mr. Waltersian Ligard in the chapman of the institute, and on the executive, committee, are Professor Larry Bruth, Major Sir Humphrey Loggert (honorary treasurer), Mr. J. H. Oldham, Rev. E. W. Smith and Professor A. Worner. Major Vischer says he is gratified at the manner in which commercial concerns, as well as the learned societies and missionary bodies, both hero and on the continent, and in America, are appreciating the value of the new organization as a means of enabling them to understand the real mind of the African. The British Government, by the way, is already making use of the Institute by inviting Professor Westermann to visit the Gold Coast in January or February of the coming year, so that he may advise the Government on certain important questions regarding orthography and local vernaculars. Gold Coast Times. Dominions Must Act On King's Title Change LONDON (U.P.).—Although the Imperial Conference concluded that the King must have a new title, it will probably be many months before the chancie becomes legal. The King's title cannot be changed except by act of Parliament, but in this case an act of the British Parliament will not be sufficient. An identical act must be passed by the parliament of every dominion and of the Irish Free State before the new title can become effective. George V. is now King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions Beyond the Seas. He is to be the King of Great Britain, Ireland and the British Dominions Beyond the Seas. The new title will better suit Ireland, but the very night-modification entails considerable troubles.

WASHINGTON, Jun. 18. Life insurance approximating about $115 per capita is now carried by color people in the United States; but this amount approximately $1,150,000,000 is carried by white companies; one of these companies being credited colored risks totaling $900,000,000 according to a report in the National Association, which represents 22 companies. The average per capita insurance for all classes is about $870. The above statement clearly emphasizes the fact that the members of our racial group are just awakening to the importance of insuring their lives for the benefit of their posterior, and it also reveals a new field of activity that has been open to lightly explored, a field that opens up an endless field of opportunities to our submerged group whose economic status and advancement are largely dependent upon the establishment of such financial resources through which we may finance at reasonable interest rates our home-buying and our business activities. It is the solitary duty of every Negro to take out an industrial or a life policy in a company that is owned and controlled by members of his social group. C. P. B.

The article says: Liberia, in other words, is in the grip of Firestone. The American Government will pither in all conscience preserve the independence of Liberia from the ruthless hands of exploitation of capital that will be concerned, not in the progress of her people but in the production of rubber, or America will send her army and move to the Firestone, whichever at Monrovia to protect that exploitation. "Are not these the same warnings that the Hon. Marcus Garvey issued to the world at large when the invasion of Liberia took place? But the artillery could not see it at that time; they could not grasp the great vision of this great leader; they could not catch the purpose for which he had been sent into the midst of the Negroes, but preferred to stand aside and knock and criticize and try to be heard down and diggery the things he was trying to do for the benefit of Negroes the outposts on the coast and谅解 they say that if what dominion and谅解 are not used by the Liberian nation, the United States will send her army, and navy.

Officials — President Coolidge Reported Determined That U. S. Shall Exercise Full Sovereignty Over Islands (From the New York American) WASHINGTON, Jan 15. Members of American sovereignty over the Philippine Island. Who are engaged in espi- pine expeditions? Against American surrender? Against the White House White Calvin Coolidge, is President of the United States. Doomed also to disappointment are Republican lame ducks, here or elsewhere, who would like to be provided with new places on the Federal payroll and in the market for any job President Coolidge will give them, whether it be in continental, United States, or across the Pacific in the Philippine Islands. Instead of outing Governor-General Woods or Inspector Auditor Wright either to placate the Marina oligarchy or to provide for the Washington lame duck brigade, President Coolidge is importing legislation reinforcing the authority of the Governor-General, curtailing the authority of the Inspector Auditor, increasing the number of their expert assistants and giving to them and to the Vice-Governor-General and members of the Philippine Supreme Court the adequate salaries that they should have had long ago and satisfy need today. Taft-May Baok Bill A bill embodying the recommendations of the President on Philippine affairs submitted to Congress in his last annual message, and providing for the salary increases which President Wilson and Secretary Balaro revoked at the time, the Jones law became the organic act of the Philippines in 1916 will be introduced in the lower House of Congress within a fortnight by the representative Edward R. Kless, of Pennsylvania, chairman of the Committee on Regular Affairs. Chief Justice Taft, it is hoped, will consent to appear before the appropriate committees of the Senate and House of Representatives in support of the proposal to give his successor in the Governor-General and in the Philippine Court; the increases in salary which the Chief of the Bureau of Insular Affairs, Major-General Meintyre, urged upon Congress as far back as the Wilson administration with the full approval of the President and Secretary of War. Of great assistance was the appearance of the Chief Justice before the committees of Congress at the time they were considering the bill recently enacted into law increasing the salaries of the members of the Federal Judiciary. Nobody in Washington is more keepy aware than is the Chief Justice of the importance of giving adequate salaries to the representative of American sovereignty at Manila as well as to the Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the Supreme Court of these islands. For *to the opposition of certain Republicans the salary scale for the Philippines*, which the Administration today, would have been provided in the Government general, whether Republicans or Democrats, has been compiled to spend all his salary, and some times more than his salary. In order to administer his high office in a manner commensurate with his responsibility and with the expectations of the tives of the islands. The new Kless bill will provide for the payment of the "salaries of the Governor-General, Vice-Governor General, Insular Auditor" their expert assistants, and members of the Supreme Court, not out of, Philippine funds, but out of taxes collected on the sale of Philippine products in the United States. Under existing law these taxes, taken out of the pocket of the American people, are turned back into the Philippine Treasury as a gift. The new Kless bill will provide that part of three taxes shall be paid the salaries of the officials in the department for the employment of expert assistants in administration for the Governor-General and not the Kess assistants for the Insular Auditor. No question of future policy toward the Philippines is involved in the new Kless bill. Its sole purpose is to improve the enforcement of the existing organic law of the Philippines.

Sir Thornton had returned from a tour of the British French and Portuguese colonies of Africa. He found that: Liberia had no public health administration at all. "Theo. French Government," Sir Thornton says, "in return for imposing conscription on her colonies, has undertaken to bring to them a public inoculation administration, with medicines within reach of every native. The cost of putting 'white physicians into the colonies would have been enormous, and the French therefore had to educate the natives to be physicians. Consequently, a system of auxiliary native physicians has been perfected, whose medical certificates are valid while in Governmental employ. There are now 75 native auxiliary physicians, 600 nurses, and about 60 midwives. In addition, a national medical school coating $2,600,000 bills has been created in Nigeria." — C. I. B.

Auspices—Says President Coolidge Saved Nicaragua from Horrors of Bolshevism Trend Is Now Toward Peaceful Policy and No Break with Mexico—Arbitration Also Mentioned (From The New York Times) WASHINGTON, Jan. 15. - While the Sonate today again discussed the Mexican and Nicaraguan difficulties, the most striking contribution to the situation was an address of President Adolfo Díaz of Nicaragua to the American people, in which he proposed terms for amnesty adjustment of the difficulties between the Government and the Liberal Party faction headed by Juan Sabeas, who contends that he is the constitutional president of the Central American Republic. In his address cabled to the Nicaraguan Legation, President Díaz says that "the decision of President Coöldafo's Government will spar Nicaragua' the horrors of Bolshievism,' lawlessness, religious persecution and general retaliation." In then invites the Liberals, who, no assets, "bring out of from their Mexican military allies, are without means of carrying on their movements to ultimate success," to a conference to consider an amicable settlement upon conditions which would leave Diaz in control until his term expired in December, 1925, bring Liberals into executive and judicial posts during the present Diaz regime, and permit Liberals to be elected to Congress without context in districts where elections were not held on account of the revolution. President Diaz also proposes to hold general elections in 1925 under American supervision; have the Diaz Government purchase the Liberal firearms, and, when peace is established to make an effort to obtain a "large loan" in the United States for the construction of a railway to the Atlantic Coast and into construction of highways. He proposes further that the Nicaraguan National Guard be reorganized under American officers and non-commissioned officers to be used solely as a police force. --- Senate Debate Desultory The Senate debate concerning Mexico and Nicaragua was desoluted and without much animation. Again the policy of the Coolidge Administration was defended and attacked. No definite progress was made, however, in the direction of taking action on any of the several resolutions aimed to uphold or condemn the activities and the purposes of the Administration. Most of what was said was academic in so far as it brought Congress any neerer to expressing itself formally with reference to the Administration's dealings with the two Latin-American countries. Senator Walsh, Democrat, of Montana, took Senator Heflin of Alabama, another Democrat, to task for his charge in the Senate that the Catholic Church, through the Knights of Columbus, was seeking to involve the United States naval with Mexico. Mr. Walsh expressed confidence that Mr. Heflin "has listened to information of an altogether unreliable character." Whereon Mr. Heflin repeated his charge and served notice that he would address the Senate later lengthy on the subject, presumably later in the day.

Before the executive session Senator Gillett, of Massachusetts made a speech in which he defended the course of the Administration in Nicaragua. Sonder Norrals of Nobraska indulged in some technical comment on Secretary Kellogg's allegations of Bolshiev Government and closed his remarks by reciting a barody which closely paraphrased James Whitcombe's White Room: "The Gobblins Will Gift You If You Don't Watch Out", with Secretary Kellogg apparently intended to play the part of "Little Giphant Annie", the hired girl who frightened the children with her tales of goblins. In the House Representatives Harrison, Moore and Lowery assigned the Administration's Latin-American policy, Mr. Lowery describing the Secretary of State as "violent and irrational" and Mr. Moore suggesting that the President get rid of Mr. Kellogg. Crisis Balloon Collapses Under Newspapers' Fire WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.—Generally the atmosphere surrounding the Nicaragua-Mexico middle has disared considerably. A week ago it appeared as if direct intervention is Nicaragua was imminent and the trend was strongly in the direction of withdrawal of Amissador Sheffield from Mexico. These things are, of course, still possible, but neither is likely in the near future. In fact, the tendency is all the other way. This welcome change is due to the reaction of public sentiment; the country waked up to the danger when it read President Coolidge's message, bristling with references to Mexico in explanation of our course in Nicaragua. The recoil from a crisis was increased by Secretary Kellogg's brief on Holoshevism. Friendly Newspapers Oppose The news and editorial columns of the newspapers, among them many that are ordinarily strong supporters of the Republican Administration; aroused, directed and informed public opinion until the crisis balloon collapsed. Editorialists from The World were referred to in the Senate and two of them were read into the Congressional Record by Senator La Pelletier. The demonstration of the feeling of the country had its repercussion on Congress and on the Executive as well. Senator Borah Today answered the argument adduced on behalf of the Administration's Central American policy, that as we are in the Nicaraguan mess there is nothing to do, but go through with it; that is, to persist in the support of President Díaz and choke the Sacca faction. The Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee says that what we should do is to withdraw recognition from Diaz on the grounds that he is seeking to draw the United States into a war with Mexico. Mr. Borah's suggestion in the Senate the other day was that another election should be held in Nicaragua, under the protection of the American marines, and that this country should accept the result of that election. Diaz Won't Yield Office $^{2}$ President Diaz's proposal of yesterday, amounts to a refusal in advance of such a solution as he stipulates that he should finish out his term, though he is willing to allow the Liberal (Sacasa) party representation in the Cabinet and in Congress. "There is nothing in the Diaz state- mont which can afford even a busier for adjustment. said Senator Borah today. "He asserts that he is to remain as President until 1920, but is willing to have an election in 1922. The regular election would take place in 1928 in any event and there is no change in the attitude he assumed when an effort was made to get together at the conference on American war vessels. He insisted at that time that above everything he must be President. He insists upon the same conditions now. No compromise is possible upon that basis." "Statement Shows Diaz Unfit" "This statement further shows Diaz to be unfit and unsuco as President of Nicaragua. He makes every effort through false and exaggerated statements to involve us in trouble with Mexico. His interests would be served by having this Government at war with Mexico, and he is using every means to bring that about. Our Government ought to withdraw its recognition of Diaz." "Revoking recognition of the Diaz Government would be exactly contrary to every position taken by President Coolidge and secretary of State Kellogg, which perhaps indicates how wide the gap has become between the Executive and the chief of the powerful Senate committee." While the Senate has nothing officially to do with the direction of international affairs short of a treaty or declaration of war, the moral effect of a repudiation of the President's policy by the Senate would be tremendous. The President's recent summoning of Democratic leaders and his appeal to them for patience until he is able to work out a solution of the Latin-American troubles tells how vividly he appreciates the situation. Neither Side. Ready. For Test Neither side is really ready for a definite test to the Senate. Most of the regular Republicans naturally are with the President. There are perhaps a dozen Progressive Republicans of varying degrees of insurgency who agree with Senator Borah. The Democratic lineup is uncertain. The more radical their, like Senator Wheeler of Montana, Senator Dill of Washington and a few others, are openly hostile to the policy which they say means simply a drifting from an embarrassment into a crisis. Senator Heilin of Alabama is chasing the phantom of a Catholic plot to drag this country into war as diligently as Senator Kellogg is pursuing the spectre of the Bolshevik monarch. The majority of the Democrats, while deploying the situation into which the Administration has brought us and hoping, that some means will be developed to avoid an open rupture with Mexico, are chary of declaring themselves.

Jan. 8.—Gathered here in a great national conference December 28-January 1, twenty-five hundred boys and girls representing every State in the Union and hundreds of institutions, gave earnest consideration to the question of race relations, and on the final day by an almost unanimous vote adopted the following: "I am willing to give to the members of every race the same opportunities that I have." The opposite view was then submitted; "Rearing some races as inherently inferior to my own, I fear keeping them in their places," and received only eleven votes. On a previous day: Dr Mordecal Johnson, president of Howard University, had delivered an address and conducted an open forum on race relations, which was followed by group discussions in which the whole conference participated. Dr Johnson made a very favorable impression, as did also Ross Howard Thirman, of Oberlin, Ohio, who spoke on another subject. At no previous conference of like character had the delegates gone so far in their thinking about race or reached conclusions so liberal and so nearly unanimous. Among the students present were representatives of thirty-odd racial and national groups, including many Negro students. The hotels of the city were open to all delegates alko and the relationships between the various groups were uniformly considerate and cordial. Other subjects featured on the program were war and industry, but on those conclusions reached by the students were not, nearly so unanimous. The proposition, "I will not support any war" got 327 votes; "I am ready to support some war but not others" received 74; "will support any war that is declared by the authority of my country" got 95; while 386 started that they were not ready to commit themselves. CIVILIZATION AND THE AFRICAN CHINA WARNS U. S. AND EUROPE on the assumption that Peking is entitled to, and can speak for the Chinese people will find its policy resting on quickskill. Manifestations of that change of attitude are shown on the part of the principal Pacific powers chiefly by incidents relating to policy and acts of the British Government. It hardly can have been a coincidence that the retiring British Minister to China, Sir Ronald MacLeay, arrived in Shanghai at the same time that Miles Lansing, the new British Insister, did, and in addition to the next ranking official in China, Sir Sydney Barton, Consul General at Shanghai, that two or three other British canadular officials from treaty ports near by were present. Mr. Lampson left London a few weeks ago and it was officially stated that he came charged with the latest state of mind of Downing Street about the China problem. Mr. Lampson traveled via Japan, and it is believed that he conferred with the Topio Foreign Office on this subject. Reversal of British Policy A result of these conferences and of Mr. Lampsons arrival is what amounts almost to a voile face of certain extremes of British policy here. In public utterances Mr. Lampson vigorously denied that the British Government has any intention of wish to "intervene" in China or to mould with China's internal disturbances. That must come as a shock to a large section of British interests in China which have tried to bring about a military intervention, by the principal powers in unison, and, if that was impossible, a separate action by Great Britain. Mr. Lampson said plainly that intervention is not to be thought of, and that action of the British Government in China will be limited to protection of British residents only when they are attacked or menaced with violence. That, however, is not the more significant point in these recent evidences of a new British attitude. Intimations of Mr. Lampson's public utterances, supported by the tone of leading British newspapers in China, and also editorial comments of some London newspapers which have been telegraphed out here, tend directly toward a "recognition" of the Cantonage Government as de facto in Middle and South China. "Redness" of Canton Fading Out This logical development puts the British here in an equivocal position. For the past year or more the British press has taken a hostile tone toward the Canton regime, has labeled it a "Red" Government under the influence of Soviet, Russia, and has predicted dire effects to follow every extension of its authority. At the same time the British press in China has clamored continuously for organization of a stable (meaning conservative) national Government in this country. Now there is a prospect that a Government activated by extreme nationalism will obtain power in the larger part of the country; but this seems likely to be not at all the kind of Government which the British and most other foreigners wanted. The word "red" formerly used in newspaper headlines to describe the Canton regime is being drapped and a respectful manner of referring to it adopted. Canton may be red, or may be only pink, or it may have been willing to appear red or pink in order to get financial and other help from the Soviets. But if it obtains control of the larger part of China it becomes a thing which must be dealt with, regardless of its political shading. Mr. Lampson's unusually free speech about these delicate matters is probably meant as much, and perhaps more, to notify the British in China of their real position and what they can expect of their Government as it is meant for Chinese ears. For one thing, it probably will cause the British press In a special number just issued of the "International Review of Missions," several writers of repute discuss "a problem entirely novel in history"—the relations of white and "black" in Africa, and the gains and losses which have accrued to the native races from contact with Western habits and ideas. The benefits and evils arising from white occupation, placed side by side, form an intensely interesting, thought-mimicking document. The former are loinclly set out by a director of Paris mission as being "the suppression of cannibalism of human sacrifice, of incessant warfare and slavery," as well as "peace and security gradually established, introduction of roads and railways, trade, education and medical service, all leading to greater prosperity and well-being." To the Briton at home the picture would appear gratifying as a proof of ample making capacity but it represents, unfortunately, only one corner of a big panorama. Two vices of white society, alcoholism and prostitution, occur in the terrible picture of social conditions in the natives of the Rwand, the great gold and diamond area. Figures are quoted showing that the native infant death-rate in a Rand in China to "pipe down" its incessant advocacy of intervention. Insistence Upon National Rights It may have also an influence on actions by British consular and municipal officials who show a bias against the Kuomintang Party. Incidents like one which happened last week in Tianjin, where the British police handed a score or so Kuomintang members who were living in the British concession over to the mercies of their political antagonist, are less likely to happen. The Canon Government was quick to take that opportunity to protest strongly, to assert that if those men lose their lives or are maltreated the British are responsible, and to claim in advance an indemnity from Great Britain. British officials at Tientsin may be right technically in that action, but in view of the general attitude of the British in China toward the Kuomintang, and the political assymmity that British concessions elsewhere in this country have given to the Kuomintang's opponents, the Chinese, are apt to regard the Tientsin incident as institutional discrimination. On the basis of Mr. Lambison's thinly voiled warnings to his nationals here and his intimation that it may become necessary for their Government to recognize the Canton regime his do facto in a large part of China, a press report from London quotes The Manchester Guardian as advocating the recognition of Canton. (Perhaps one should speak of the Kuomintang Government now having its capital at Wuchang, on the Yangtze River, for it has announced that its capital is being moved there.) It is interesting also that the leading British newspaper in China, in discussing Mr. Lampson's forthcoming arrival at Peking, said: "Where there is no Government to which he can present his credentials." Effect of Friendly American Policy It is evident that if the British Imperial Government, ever did give ear to insistence of British and other foreigners in China that the right solution of China's problem is military intervention, that Idea was shelved when it was learned that the American Government is opposed to intervention and to any foreign attempt to coerce revolutionary forces in this country, and that the Japanese Government also is averse to such action. Any doubt that might have existed about the policy of the American Government was removed a few days ago by dispatches from Washington stating that the United States would not attempt to force. Chinese regional governments to respect the customs status. Some time ago the Labor Party in England sent one of its members, Colonel L'Estrange Maigne, M. P., to investigate conditions in China. His report has been published, in part, and it caused indignation among the British here because of its alleged partiality to China. However, Colonel Maigne makes one very interesting comment. He wrote: "Probably the American press in China more accurately portrays the real sentiments of American democracy toward China than does official policy. Mr. MacMurray, the American Minister, is helped by this press, just as Sir Ronald MacLeay, British Minister, is hindered in his dealings with the Chinese by the bitter abuse of the British press in China. "The American press is sympathetic and humane toward China, and thus creates the idea that American policy is benevolent; while the British press, by never missing an opportunity of being offensive to the Chinese, and always adopting the most reactionary outlook, gives the worst possible impression of British policy. Actually, neither the British nor the American press is official; but they have their great effect." This correspondence often has pointed out how the tone of a goodly part of the foreign press in China has stimulated and aggravated what is termed anti-forensic, and has given effective arguments to Russian Soviet propaganda. It may be that Mr. Lampson was instructed to ask the British press to temper its criticism. It seems reasonably sure that any town is 455 per 1,000 births, as against 60.6 per 1,000 births in the European town a mile away. Here is a formidable charge: "Venereal diseases have been given a rapid extension by the European occupation. There are districts in Africa where almost the entire population has become infected." According to the same writer, "for the introduction of tuberculosis into Africa the European occupation is responsible." If all these portraits were taken as correct one would despair of civilization, as it is understood at the present time. The truth of the matter, however, is that based on a foundation from which religion is left out, leaves the society which it affects empty of soul. The application of Christianity is the only method by which backward races can be elevated to a higher plane. The fault of the modern ruler or statesman is that he builds on economic formula, instead of an spiritual truth, and so, even with the best intentions, he fails to produce that which he has in view. It is lost that the gulf between white and black in Africa wildens every day; only Christ can bridge the chasm—P. S. Faulk in "The Exemplar."

S. Williams, who is en route to Shanghai, on the cruiser Pittsburgh, before ordering the landing of forces there. In today's ship movements the following destroyers have changed stations: The Eulmer arrived at Wuhu; the Helaena arrived at Blas Bay from Hongkong; the Pillisbury sailed from Nanking to Wyoming and the Simpson arrived at Nanking. MANILA, Jan. 12.—The United States destroyer Edsall will depart for Shanghai as soon as it loads 3,000 hand grenades brought here by the transport Merges. It is understood that several destroyers of the Atlantic fleet have been ordered to be prepared to leave for Shanghai on short notice. Five British Cruisers Ordered to Stand By LONDON, Jan. 15.—The Admiralty tonight announced that the first cruiser squadron, attached to the Mediterranean fleet, had been ordered to stand by in readiness to proceed to Ghana if the situation requires. The squadron consists of five cruisers, which now are in Phalcon Bay, Greece. The government is watching intently the negotiations at Hankow between Charge d'Affaires, O'Malley of Peking and Eugene Chen, Foreign Minister of the Cattleseese government. Nothing definite has been received here, either from Mr. O'Malley or from Minister Lampson at Peking. It is taken for granted that negotiations are continuing, Chen being anxious for the British banks at Hankow to reopen, because their suspension of operations is handicapping Chinese trade. Mr. O'Malley went to Hankow from Peking this week to reach an understanding with Chen, following the recent disorders in Hankow, in which Chinese mobs invaded the British quarter. In the great throng of progress and prosperity of the various activities for human uplift, the Universal Negro Improvement Association has kept pace, notwithstanding it has had, buffs and scops by the many, it has had a prosperous year. Though many have fallen by the way, some by death, and others by disloyalty. But there are an number whose hope has not been shaken, and they are still looking forward to the day when Negroes can claim true and unhampered liberty. We are still looking for the day when the Black man will be given his rightful and well deserved place in the affairs of races and nations. But realizing that these virtues comp only to those who rise and demand them by competing with the powers that be, therefore the Universal Negro Improvement Association is trying to educate the Negroes of the World to unite his mental and financial forces together and make himself felt and known in the world of Progress and Prosperity. Our financial success has been wonderful for which we must thank the public. We feel that a greater confraternity is being brought about among the people of our race. Notwithstanding we have our various thoughts and different organizations we are beginning to realize we all are for the same goal, and that is to make the world better by our being in it, and to make conditions better for those who will come after us, as we have gone this far, and success has crowned our efforts, we are entering into the New Year with a hearty split and a greater determination to do more to bring about a stronger confraternity, and a greater possibility for the hom- Andrew Williams ..... 2.00 ESTRADA COSTA RICA Miss C.

Whitchord ..... 1.00 Chinese Dscriminating Against Africans in London Restaurants (From "London Notes" In the Gold Coast Lender) It is not very long since our Chinese friends opened a restaurant in Oxford street, which was an attractive centre for students partly from the East and also those from other parts of the world. It has since grown into a very popular centre, attracting a large number of visitors, both European and foreign, with the result that the management has become somewhat discriminative to the disappointment of broad-minded people. It is unfortunately what nature is. One should have thought that in a Chinese restaurant in the City of London all sorts and conditions of men would be made welcome in the spirit of brotherhood; but it appears that modern conditions are such that where material considerations come in the higher things which should astute broad-minded action go by the board. It is reported that in this once popular resort- Africans find a difficulty to secure courteous attention. On the contrary, it may be generally said that there is hardly any discrimination in any of the European restaurants in the city, and there is a spirit of friendliness shown wherever one goes, which makes it possible to think that the common experiences of the war on the part of the different members of the empire has not been lost upon the average Englishman, We are reminded also of the Indian restaurant at Regent street, which also has developed into quite an aristocratic rendezvous; but there it is gratifying to observe that the spirit of comradeship pervades as before. It is interesting to notice at this other popular resort almost every type of man within the British Empire, congregated for refreshment and association; and we cannot but look forward to the time when our brothers of the West Indies and of West Africa will also promote in London either a club or a restaurant of their own for the convenience of members of the colonies who come over to London from time to time. plete emancipation of both mind and body of the Race, and make a place for they have made mistakes as all do who attempt to bring about something worth while. But our courage is not undawned and our determination shall never weaken as long as hope can be assured. We wish you all a more prosperous year and greater advancement and a larger vision of the future. When all of our efforts will be blended together for the welfare of the Race.

The statue of Carrion Sylvan, the late Queen Elizabeth of Rumania, was one of the sentimental treasures lost in the midnight burning of the royal palace. An old soldier's attempt to rescue it was a dramatic scene of the fire. When the dames swept through the roof and down the walls of the throne room, a bearded old sergeant hurried to the statue of her who was his queen in his youth and drag it out for her heavy load. Struggle wailed, until the dames held on of his head and sniffed his uniform. Gasping, he brought his heels together saluted and staggered back as the statue plunged into a pit of flames.

LYNCHING WORST BLOT ON U: S. CIVILIZATION 3,224 Recorded Lynchings in U.S. in 31 Year Period. Ending in 1918 (From the New York World.) With the inauguration this week of John B. Richards as Governor of South Carolina in place of Thomas G. McLoud, and with the meeting immediately afterward of the Criminal Court in Alabama, the State hasan Opportunity to set an example to the South in the punishment of mob-violence. The case which confronts it is ilegent. The Lynching of the three Lowmans; one of those a woman, one of them a der acquitted as innocent, was peculiarly cruel. The evidence of the identity of some members of the mob is clear. This evidence is in form to go before the Grand Jury. The hoodlums, the Negro-battlers, the politicians of the Gole. Blase type, are asking, "What are you going to do about it?" If there are no indictments the conspiracy should be prosecuted. South Carolina the mob is stronger than the law. The eyes of the South should be upon Alken and Columbia. "There is no defense for lynching to which an American; State can give a moment's tolerance in the second quarter of the twentieth century. The old excuse of the "usual crime" has always been simply bunk. There were 2,254 recorded lynchings in the United States during the thirty-year period ending in 1918. Loss than one-fifth of the colored men lynch'd were, even accused of the "usual crime". This roster of lynchings actually included fifty colored women. The motives for lynching vary. But there can be little doubt that the principal motive in the 4,000 lynchings which are estimated to have occurred in the South since reconstruction deserves significant and white men lynch'd as a subordinate race struggling to rise. When the Negroes become self-assertive, these men decide that a lynching "will take it out of them." That is the conclusion of careful students. Gov. Dorsey of Georgia told a conference which he called in 1921, when the State in two years had witnessed 135 cases of lynching or outrageous assault: In some counties the Negro is being driven out as though he were a wild beast. In others he is being held as a slave. In others he is Negro remain. In only two cases the victim is cited as the "usual crime" involved. The Western States have long since suppressed lynching, and there is no reason why the South cannot do as well. In fact, it has already shown what it can do. In 1937 there were sixty-one lynchings, a normal number. But that year the agitation for the Dyer, Anti-Lynching Bill reached its faint, while the South took alarm also at the continued northward migration of Negroes. The number of lynchings declined to twenty-eight in 1923 and sixteen in 1924; it remained at sixteen in 1925. This was due to the pressure of public opinion and the wide effect of the repressive measures of such Governors as Dorsey of Georgia and Morrison of North Carolina. Now the totals show a tendency to rise; but what the South has done once it can do again. It needs Sheriffs who will use the boss or ar. if necessary, the riot gun; county prosecutors who will obtain indictments and Governors who will spur on the local officers. Georgia had just ode indictment to 400 lynchings before Governor Dorsey entered office; but the year 1922 saw twenty-two mob partidants indicted and four sent to the penitentiary. Behind the local officers should stand an increasingly aggressive public opinion. The press, represented by such newspapers as the Columbia State, the Birmingham Age-Herald, the Charleston Times, the attention, has given far more attention to lynching in the last few years than before. Southern denominations, sup- Mina'sine, thank you! It wasn't always so. I was a little nervous. Indication, Catarun of Stomach, Belajra, Heart Pluttering, Sour Stomach, Norvurdu, I did, and in the same way. Don't send one anoint, for I am so afraid this treatment will kill me.

SPECIAL PRICES TO.DRUGGISTS AND AGENTS parted by the Federal Council for Churches, have begun a vigorous campaign. County committees on race relations, and even county leagues for law enforcement have increased rapidly. Lynching is to a large extent an evil concentrated in a small number of backward communities. Oushaita Parish in Louisiana is credited with nineteen lynchings in thirty-four years, Caddo Parish with eighteen. Marion County in Florida with thirteen, Hinds County in Mississippi with twelve. An impressive number of counties in even Georgia and Mississippi have never had a single Lynching. A vigorous State opinion can make the delinquency counties ashamed of themselves. It is the foregoing that we must at Alken that it will be many years before that community, justified as it is, permits another Lynching. The worst blot on the South, the worst blot on American Civilization, is Lynching. "Is the State of Rutledge and Hayne and Calhoun going to deal with that blot as it should? (continued from page 2) dom. There are still blind men among us who would refuse to ratify a treaty accepting Turkey's denunciation of the shucking capitulations, not realising what has happened. Today China is following in Turkey's steps. Great Britain, beaten by Cantons year-long boycott of her goods, has made a sudden reversal of policy, and offered to step-to-step which a year ago she contemptuously vultured—and more significant still, the Chinese today refuse her offers of compromise as too light. The French, meanwhile, explain their refusal to go-along with the British by saying that they cannot afford to be associated with hated England in China! A quarter century ago the powers, by a short military expedition, brought the old Chinese Empire to its knees. Today they are rightly afraid to try force on chronic young China—the sturdy child has in the Interim learned too much about force. If China follows Turkey she will not act for herself alone. Indiq…mother vest continent-nation with a population more than twice that of the United States, seethed with the reaction from Turkey's awakening, and is not blind or deaf to what is happening in China. All the eastern people which are tied to the aprowrstrings of the white West are watching China's struggle with passionate sympathy. Nor is this battle for freedom confined to the political sphere. England's industrial depression is partly due to the fact that India has learned to manufacture her own cotton. China, too, is struggling toward industrial independence. There are fewer British cotton mills in China than there were five years ago, and every six years China is doubling the number of her spindles. Despite her civil wars her customs in India in 1925. Increasingly the economic basis of the white imperial system is breaking down. Mills will manufacture closer to the sources of raw materials, instead of cluttering the channels of trade by passing everything through Europe. Those masses of Americans who turn away from Europe do not, perhaps, think out these things. But theirs may be the truer instinct, after all. Europe is not a dead or even a dying continent, but its great day is passing. Probably, never again will it hold such a position in the world's affairs as it did just before it set about cutting its own threat in 1914. A new world is coming into being. The future of Latin America is still uncertain; but in the decades immediately ahead Asia and North America are certain to play roles of growing importance in the world's affairs; and they may do well not to involve them; selfes too intimately in the struggles of a tired continent to retain an impossible preeminence.

The mistakes of the past must be forgotten and our people must adopt new plans if we are ever to come to a full understanding of ourselves through the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The idea that white-men are superior by divine right must be fended from our minds. Our forefathers believed this and they taught it to us; but we know better now. God moves in a mysterious way to perform His Wonders. With His hand He is directing the destiny of the Universal Negro Improvement Association through the Honorable Marcu Garvey. Negroes, no matter how fit or qualified they may be, can acquire and hold nothing of importance in a white community. We have suffered and are still suffering from all kinds of abuse and segregation. But the God of Peace, Love and Justice does not intend for this to go on for all time. He has inspired one Negro to step out from the throng and point the way to freedom. Marcus Garvey is entreating the Negro to prepare educationally, industrially, commercially and politically, to claim that, which is rightfully his. Many Negroes refuse to join because of selfishness. They are blinded by the few privileges which white people grant black people in order to keep them donged into subjection. Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association bless God for the Honorable Marcus Garvey. We need more leaders of high principles and storing worth like him. The world is watching the movements of Marcus Garvey and his followers. Some people call us stupid. Some say we are fooors who are redeeming the impossible. With our leader in prison the world will contine to watch for the downfall of the organization. But there always will be men staunch, loyal and true to carry on the work. If the followers will but remain true to themselves and to the cause all will be well. H. L. COLLE Success Impossible Without a Trial To the Editor of The Negro World: Self-knowledge is necessary for the accomplishment of any human achievement. We must first acknowledge and understand certain fixed laws if we hope to get anywhere as a people. It has been well said that we must not think because a thing is impossible for us to master, it is impossible to man. Many people, when they come face to face with seemingly insurmountable difficulties, get the idea that what they cannot accomplish is impossible. They believe that what they cannot succeed in doing, others must fall in. They lose sight of the fact that perhaps the reason they have failed is because they have not tried the right way. Every black man should give the principles of Garveyism careful study before he makes any decisions regarding what his people can do. Any Negro who understands Garveyism and is not in tune with it, is an enemy of THE HALAN CO., INC., DEPT. 72 Box 58. Hamilton Grange Sta., New York, N. X.

We can never succeed in anything unless we try. JOSEPH BISCETTE Violenta, Cann, John. Negro Must Eventually Fight for What Is His To the Editor of The Negro World: My late father always taught me that, sooner or later, the African Negro would have to fight for possession of his native land. I know that the day is bound to come. When I returned home from the late war I told my friends that the next war would be at our own door. At that time I knew nothing about the U. N. L. A. One day a friend handed me a copy of The Negro World. After reading it the words, my father had spoken to the came back to me. 'I am born to become a Garvoyte. I have been trained in Garvoyte. Since becoming a Garvoyte I have learned that the salvation of the black race lies within the race and nowhere else. The teachings of Marcus Garvey are so plain that Negroes who pretend not to understand ought to be ashamed. His is the true spiritual and upright leadership which is the gift of God. I shall continue to be a follower of Marcus Garvey until Africa is redeemed.
