TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES Negro World ONE GOD, ONE AIM, ONE DESTINY Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: It is said to be a hard and difficult task to organize and keep together large numbers of our race for the common good. Many have tried to congregate us, but have failed, the reason being that our characteristics are such as to keep us more apart than together. The evil of internal division is wrecking our existence as a people, and if we do not seriously and quickly move in the direction of a readjustment it simply means that our doom becomes immediately conclusive. For years the Universal Negro Improvement Association has been working for the unification of our race, not on domestic national lines only, but universally. The success we have met in the course of our effort is rather encouraging, considering the time consumed and the environment surrounding the object of our concern. It seems that the whole world of sentiment is against the Negro, and the difficulty of our generation is to extricate ourselves from the prejudice that hides itself beneath as well as above the action of an international environment. Prejudice is conditional on many reasons, and it is apparent that the Negro supplies, consciously or unconsciously, all the reasons by which the world seems to ignore and avoid him. No one cares for a leper, for lepers are infectious persons, because all are afraid of the disease, and so, because the Negro keeps himself poor, helpless and undemonstrative, it is natural also that no one wants to be of him or with him. Progress is the attraction that moves humanity, and to whatever people or race this "modern virtue" attaches itself there will you find the splendor of pride and self-esteem that never fail to win the respect and admiration of all. It is the progress of the Anglo-Saxon race that singles them out for the respect of all the world. When that race had no progress or achievement to its credit, then, like all other inferior peoples, they paid the price in slavery, bondage, as well as through prejudice. We cannot forget the time when even the ancient Briton was regarded as being too dull to make a good Roman slave, yet today, the influence of that race rules the world. It is the industrial and commercial progress of America that causes Europe and the rest of the world to think appreciatively of the Anglo-American race. It is not because one hundred and ten million people live in the United States that the world is attracted to the republic with so much reverence and respect, reverence and respect not shown to India with its three hundred millions, or to China with its four hundred millions. Progress of and among any people will advance them in the respect and appreciation of the rest of their fellows. It is such progress that the Negro must attach to himself if he is to rise above the prejudice of the world. The reliance of our race upon the progress and achievements of others for a consideration in sympathy, justice and rights is like a dependence upon a broken stick, resting upon which will eventually throw you to the ground. The Universal Negro Improvement Association teaches to our race self-help and self-reliance, not only in one essential, but in all those things that contribute to human happiness and well-being. The disposition of the many to depend upon the other races for a kindly and sympathetic consideration of their needs, without making the effort to do for themselves, has been the race's standing disgrace by which we have been judged and through which we have created the strongest prejudice against ourselves. There is no force like success, and that is why the individual makes all efforts to surround himself throughout life with the evidence of it. As of the individual, so should it be of the race and nation. The glittering success of Rockefeller makes him a power in the American nation; the success of Henry Ford suggests him as an object of universal respect, but no one knows and cares about the bum or hobo who is Rockefeller's or Ford's neighbor. So, also, is the world attracted by the glittering success of races and nations, and pays absolutely no attention to the bum or hobo race that lingers by the wayside. It is the duty of every Negro of character to support this program not only morally but financially. The burden of our association is that of the race; hence, we should all go hand in hand in clearing the pathway toward progress and the achievement of greater things. WOMAN ESCAPES FROM PEONAGE FARM AFTER 21 YEARS CRISIS IN CHINA, REACHING HEAD; BRITAIN, TRUE TO FORM, SENDING INDIANS TO FIGHT OTHER VICTIMS U. S. Debating Whether to Join Allied Military Movement and Send in Army or Fix Policy Cantonese Drawing In on Shanghai - Probable Uniting of Northern and Cantonese Forces Seen WASHINGTON, Jun 23 — The American Government may be forced within a few days to make a momentous decision regarding its policy in China. The situation at Shanghai is likely at any time to compel a military movement of the European nations and Japan to undertake such an expedition as was brought about by the Boxer rebellion twenty-six years ago. Foreigners from all parts of China have taken refuge in Shanghai. The Cantonese forces are drawing in on the city and their program after getting possession of it, is to take Peking as the culmination of the new Nationalism, which aims at a united China, free from the restrictions, concessions and extraterritorial rights now exercised by foreign nations. Washington Must Decide White President, Coolidge, and Secretary of State Kellogg continue to hope the anti-foreign disorders will subside, so as to avert necessity of greater forces in China, so far nothing has developed to alleviate the alarm. Great Britain is reported to be shipping four army battalions and a thousand additional marines. Japan also is said to do augmenting her forces. It is quite among the possibilities that the suggestion may come any day for an armed military movement, and the decision will have to be made whether we will join such an expedition. The State Department received a long report yesterday from Admiral Williams, commanding our Astatic squadron, whose flagship and half dozen destroyers and gunboats are at Shanghai. No word of the contents of this message has been made public, which accounts for the fear its contents present a grave situation. U. S. Force Relatively Small A dozen additional destroyers are or were at Manila, and the Marines from Guam have been ordered there. Our logation guard at Peking recently has been augmented to 500 Marines and there are 900 American soldiers guarding the Tientsin-Peking Railway. These forces would constitute only a handful should the Cantonese invade Shanghai. Senator Borah, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, reiterated tonight the United States had its great opportunity to save the situation by a declaration of policy, which should have been made two years ago, pronouncing in favor of the abandonment of extraterritorial rights, tariff autonomy and the abrogation of the old humiliating treaties, which are the three bases for the Chinese hostility which has resulted in driving in of the foreigners from all over the inferior of China to the protected ports Envoy for Show of Forces Such a policy, according to Senator Borah, would be more effective than all the Marines we could send. The sanding of fighting men, he says, is an antique process, suitable perhaps to the world psychology of a quarter of a century ago, but useless in such a situation as now confronts us. China, temporarily at least, has succeeded Central America as our gravest international trouble. It is due to break, out in Congress tomorrow, where the Borah idea has many supporters.

AIKEN LYNCHING NOT REFERRED TO BY NEW GOVERNOR Inaugural Address of Governor Richards Contains No Mention of Aiken Horror—But the Teachers Who Incline to Atheism Will Be Barred COLUMBIA, S. C., Jan. 18.—John G. Richards, first Governor of South Carolina to take office for a continuous term of four years, was sworn in today with the usual ceremonies. His inaugural address contained no reference to the lynchings at Aiken last October, which The World investigated. It had been assumed that the new Governor would declare himself specifically with regard to the lynchings, especially as last Friday he had a long conference with Governor McLeod, whom he succeeds, at which the evidence assembled by State Detective Rogers was gone over. Mr. Richards is said to have expressed himself as being very much impressed by it. Many citizens have expressed themselves as being greatly disappointed that the new Governor did not take this opportunity to declare himself in emphatic terms about the Alken crime and to pledge himself to do everything in his power to have the criminals punished. ... On the subject of lawlessness Governor Richards said. "If there is any period of our State's history except just before and during reconstruction in which there has been a more general disregard for law and its sacred majesty, then I am not conversant with it." He attributed this to the circumstance that men in high and responsible positions and men in public office were, known themselves to be lawbreakers. Among the interesting recommendations of the new Governor was that man or woman who denies or own questions the existence of a Supreme Being and man's personal dependence on Him should be employed, in any of the colleges or public schools of the State He admonishes all trustees to use their authority and utmost diligence to prevent employment of any teacher suspected of atheism or even the taint of atheism or agnosticism. Later in the day a bill was introduced in the House of Representatives to prevent the teaching of evolution in any State supported school or institution. (From the St. Louis Argus) Mrs. Jane Dixon, an ex-slave, who talked interestingly of the time the stars fell, and who came to St. Louis two weeks ago—seeking refuge from the wrath of a Bolivar-County, Mississippi, cotton grower on whose farm she was a tenant, died in Kintoe on Tuesday morning of the age of 110 years. A nervous shock encountered in feeling here, coupled with the infirmities of old age were probable causes of her death. Johnson Laura, a nephew of the old woman, came here with her and was responsible for her finding a place of shade in Klinch. He explained to the Argus representative that his life was threatened by the white Southerner when he demanded money due him for work done on the farm. When he refused to work until a settler man had Laura says the farm owner's anger was stirred and plans of violence against Laura were arranged. When the opportunity came Laura, and his elderly aunt died from that section. Funeral services will be held for Mrs. Dion from Pinkley Toney Funeral Home, 3128 Lucap avenue, Monday. Burial will be at Washington Park Cemetery. National "Jim Crow" Laws? WASHINGTON, Jan 23.—Nationally prominent Democritea recently attended a "altery dinner" in honor of the third consecutive election of Albert C Ritchie as Governor of Maryland. Although the Governor said the dinner was of no political significance, colored voters throughout the country, who have been leading toward Democracy, are most pronounced in their condemnation of the speech made by the Little Corporal of Democracy. "It has always seemed to me," said the Governor, "that Maryland has what, might almost be called a distinctive civilization of her own, as reflected in her customs and traditions and political spirit. If I am right in that, then I suppose it inherited from our ancestors, and I would like to see it cherished and preserved and spread to the far corners of the nation, as the Maryland gospel of free government."

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 29, 1927 A Winner in "Why I Am a Garveyite" Contest Donates Prize of $10 to Liberty University To the Editor of The Negro World: Dear Sir--While I was in Washington on my vacation, I received the call to inform the world of my reason for being a Garveyite. When I am New Negra, that their opinions will remain in my mind, a token of the determined effort of an unyielding race. Please forward this prize to Liberty University, as my initial donation towards that great Universal Negro institution which undestined to reju- lization the educational status of our boys and girls. DEMON OIL AS WORLD- DISTURBER tered this contest the thought of winning a prize was far from my mind; but the theme was of such a nature that no true Negro who has imbibed the teachings of Garveyism could have resisted this call to express his conviction. The judges have indeed conferred an honor upon me by selecting my humble but conscientious essay as the second winner in this great contest. Kindly permit me to embrace this opportunity to express my congratulation to Mr. Joseph Lloyd of Victoria De Las Tunas, Cubs, in having gained the signal honor of being the winner of the first prize. Also please inform the myriad of other contestants who were just as sincere and candid in their expressions of the spirit of the For Oil Today Man Will Betray His Brother., Perjure His Soul and Drench a World in Blood Africa, "Black Golconda" Stop Seeking Heaven in the Sky Above and Explore Earth Below Written for The Negro World by S. A. HAYNES The Senate has refused to ratify the Immunicant Treaty-between the United States and Turkey. This should be of interest to Negroes of the Universal Negro Improvement Association-whose goal is nationhood in Africa. Senator King of Utah, who headed the opposition to prevent its passage, said: "Obviously, it would be unfair and unreasonable for the United States to recognize and respect the claims and professions of Kenal as long as he persists in holding control and sovereignty over Armenia, now a 'No Man's Land,' while nearly a million Armenian refugees and exiles are people without a country." This indictment is significant in that the sovereignty Kenal holds over Armenia is analogous to that held by President Coolidge over Hattit and the Virgin Islands. Senator King calls a million Armenian refugees and exiles a people without a country. What about fifteen million people of African descent here in the Senator's own homeland who, although proclaimed citizens by the constitution, are no better off than those Armenian refugees in whom Mr. King is so very interested? The world has greater respect for the intelligence of Kenal Pasha, than for that of the gentleman from Uttall. One has revived a whole country and driven one of Britain's ablest statesman from the highest office within realism; the other is only important in proportion to the size* of his own backyard. So long as fifteen million people of color are ruthlessly mobbed and lynched and exiled from their constitutional rights and privileges in these United States, Congress has no moral right to attack the same condition in alien lands. "The Black Goldonda" Behind this refusal to ratify the Lausanne Trénty is the fascinating story of oil, a story that should awaken the consciousness of every thoughtful Negro and imbue him with the spirit of loyalty and service to his fathers and our fatherland Africa. Isaac T. Marsegoon author of "The Black Goldonda," has title to say in an interview-editorial in the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times: "The one great distinctive American activity is oil. It is a romance as full of Shrill and achievement as the story of steel, coal or the railroads. . . . And, of course, today oil is not just a domestic issue. Oil has become, with the exception of Germany's repatriations, the prize international irritant. Foreign offices are much more concerned about available supplies of petroleum for both war and peace purposes than anything else. We live in the age of oil." More Compelling Than 'Democracy' From the facts before us, oil has surpassed in human interest the ideal of democracy. It is more potential than the eloquence of statesmen—more worthy than the voices of the people. It commands greater respect than the constitution of the United States. It is more popular than English's Magna Charta, more valuable than the Treaty of Versailles. Just the other day Dillon Reed & Co offered the public $500,000.

The Batavia Company was organized in 1907 and is world-wide in its operations, being especially active in the Dutch East Indies, Venezuela and Argentina. Bolivia, one of the most backward countries of South America, granted a concession of 120,000 square miles of oil land in the Province of Santa Cruz to a British syndicate. They will pay no taxes for 25 years, and free entry of imports will be allowed. Nor will there be any charge on products exported. Japan, confident that her supremacy of the Tacific must one day undergo a rigid test, flirted with Soviet Russia and gained large oil concessions from her to augment the oil resources of the Nipponese navy. Great Britain for years sent the flower of her empire buildings 'to Persia and Mesopotamia in the quest for oil and more oil. France staked her national integrity on the oil markets of North Africa and Asia Minor, and only last year Italy reached an understanding with Great Britain, pending the recognition of the League of Nations, for the exploitation of the oil resources of Abyssinia.

Finley, editor of the New York Times, will deliver the principal address in memory of General Samuel Chapman Armstrong at Hampton Institute on Founder's Day, January 20, as part of the Founder's Day observances. Dr. Finley, for so many years connected with educational development as teacher, lecturer and college president, as author and as editor, will bring an interpretation of the life of General Armstrong, giving his impressions of Armstrong's character and calling attention to the contribution which he made to the solution of the problem of race relations. General Armstrong's insight into the fundamentals of education and the accuracy with which he politized out the great weakness of the American educational system will be recognized in this annual Founder's Day program. A number of the Hampton Institute trustees, and other friends of the Institute will attend the Founder's Day celebration in the Memorial Church at Hampton Institute.

Hall), former chief of foreign affairs to General Wu Pei-fu, Chinese war lord and dictator, on his return from London recently. He made a six months' tour of Asia, where he discussed the probabilities of the movement with British army officers, Chinese leaders, foreign officials of all nations, and with Mahatma Gandhi, leader of the "passive resistance" revolt in India. Says India Threatens Britain Foreign officials in close touch with the Orient are resigning themselves, he said, to the changed feeling toward "white exploitation" of the Batah by foreign capital, and a British secretary in India expressed the view that in ten years Great Britain would be forced to withdraw. Nationalist propaganda, fostered by Russia and intelligent Chinese leaders, has swopt southern China. On this tongue of every Chingse is the expression of contempt for the white civilization, which they term "the paper tiger," a tiger which has been punctured by the economic revolts, and which they feel is a gigantic bluff, according to Mr. Close. Will Consult With President Representative Albert Johnson of Washington, author of the Japanese exclusion act, is making arrangements to have Mr. Close report his findings to President Coolidge. Mr. Close, who was imprisoned when the Wu Pel-i dictatorship was overthrown, will address the War College in Washington tomorrow on military operations in the Chinese uprisings. America's position in China is a delicate one, according to Mr. Close. The Chinese movement, directed by auto leaders, is pointed absolutely at the British, with Japan playing the part of a passive onlooker, unwilling to put herself again in the position of "catspaw" to help the white race dominate China after the slights received in the termination of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, and in the enactment of the Japanese exclusion law by the United States. Three Young Mon Direct Revolt Three young men, each a chosen disciple of Dr. Sun Wat-sen, the late Chinese president, are dominating the Nationalist party in China today, according to Mr. Close, who has been in close touch with Chinese affairs for more than ten years. The outstanding leader is T. V. Soong, thirty-three years old, a graduate of the Harvard School of Business Administration, who obtained organization experience with the International Banking Company in New York. Soong, a brother-in-law of the late Dr. Sun, has been the Alexander Hamilton of China, completely reorganizing the finances and paving the way for the nationalist movement Chiang Kaishek, generalissimo of the southern Chinese armies, the second of the leaders, was trained by Japanese and Russian officers and was the man picked by Dr Sun to carry on the nationalist movement. The third man is Michaelovitch Borodin, Russian officer, who is directing the propaganda and obtaining Russian sympathy. LLOYD GEORGE TO HEAD BRITISH LIBERAL PARTY LONDON, Jan. 21 -- Resignation from the organizing committee of leaders of the Ancientian wing of the Liberal Party today left former Premier Lidyd George in complete control of the whole organization. His followers now expect him to take steps to infuse new life into the party, which of late has lost much of its power. Viscount Gray, Vivian Phillips, Sir William-Plander, Sir Robert Hudson and Lady Bonhilim Carter, all strong supporters of the Earl of Oxford and Asquith, resigned from the committee with a vote regearing such action Wednesday. Italian Eugenist Favors Italo-Arab Race NAPLES, Italy, Jan. 18. Elimination of the Barber race in Italian colonies of northern Africa and the isolation of a "pure Arab bread," which, having an anthropological affinity with Mediterranean types, might form a superior Italo-Arab race, is advocated by Senator Leonardo Rinchi, former minister of instruction. He gave his advice at a lecture: night on "Overpopulation in relation to edgic principles" Declaring that within seventy, years Italy would have a population of eighty million. Proof Biancio emphasized that the absorbing problem for Italy was to supply work and food for double the present population. Therefore it was necessary to find a new outlet for emigration. ..... Negro Woman,Held as Slave On Georgia Farm 21 Years, Escapes, Leaving Children HARTFORD. Jan. 19.—A bill was offered in the General Assembly today to prohibit intermarriage of Caucasians and persons of Negro blood. The penalty would be a fine of $1000 to $8,000 or imprisonment of one to two years for persons who so intermarry, or who perform the ceremony at such a marriage. Connecticut has no law against miscegenation. PRESIDENT KING OF LIBERIA GETS BELATED 'VISION' Having Mortgaged the Republic to the Rubber Barons, He Now Talks- Gilbly of Sovereignty and Wants No More Negro Missionaries WASHINGTON. Jan. 22. Objecting to the denominational and dominating influence of colored American missionaries; President King of Liberia, Africa, in a recent message released through Dr. Ernest Lyon of Baltimore, Liberian Consul General, declared that the control of foreign religious bodies must be withdrawn, as well as their financial support, from the churches in Liberia. "Since we are supporting and maintaining our own government," says. President King, "we ought to be able to support and maintain our own churcher. In fact, this is a duty and responsibility devolving upon us as a free, sovereign and independent people. No self-respecting, independent nation would desire otherwise." Although President King did not see the wisdom of excluding American missionaries, until after he had signed the contract with the Firestone Rubber Company, it is the consensus of opinion that he has taken the proper step. With the vast and untouched natural resources of his country awaiting development, it is conceded that an industrial, rather than a spiritual awakening, is essential. The large sums of money that have been diverted, to the work of "Christianizing" the natives of Liberia can now be advantageously used for the stamping out of illiteracy among the members of our group in America. Some of this money could also be effectively used to finance a definite program that would reduce the high mortality rate of colored American citizens. C. P. B. Alien Registration Bill Scored as "Camouflaged" "Camouflaged" allen registration was the term applied by the American Civil Liberties Union to the "naturalization" bill introduced January 11 by Representative Holiday. The bill, which provides for "voluntary" registration of aliens to "facilitate their naturalization," is said by the Union to be in effect the same alien registration bill which was supported by Congressman Albert Johnson in the last session of Congress and which aroused a storm of protest. Dr. Harry F. Ward, chiefman of the Union, charged that the new bill would "make registration compulsory and not voluntary." Allens who refused to register, he said, would find it impossible to get citizenship papers. Mr. Holiday claims that the bill is designed to "gain information on the number of aliens in the country and what has hindered their 'becoming citizens.'" The new measure is also scored by the newly formed National Council for the Protection of Foreign-Born Workers, which labeled it "an opening wedge for compulsory registration and a Prussian espionage system in America." The National Council, with headquarters at 41 Union Square, New York City, is composed of heads of labor organizations and of local councils of foreign born In North Carolina puples have the right to kick and cavort upon inclination. In unholding this theory the Supreme Court of that State recently handed down a decision setting aside a credit for $600 in damages obtained by a widow whose husband was kicked and fatally injured in a mule says the Boatton Globe. Writes to The Negro World Asking for Aid and Advice Hell Hole Is A. P. Dunway Farm in Oglethorpe County Wants Children, Ages 7 and 4, Rescued as Soon as Possible—Negroes in That Section Suffering Great Hardships The following letter, revealing yet another hell hole in the State of Georgia where Negroes are held in slavery on a farm, was forwarded to The Negro World signed "Mattie Kindrig" (Kendrick). This unfortunate woman, it appears, was held in peonage for twenty-one years, during which time she bore two children. She managed to make her escape recently and was forced to leave her offspring, a boy and a girl, aged three and seven years, respectively. Steps are being taken by this newspaper to have these children rescued and restored to their mother, whose address, for obvious reasons, is being withheld at present. The text of the letter, with corrections in spelling, follows: "_____ Tenn. January 18, 1927. "Dear Editor of The Negro World: "I am your Mattie Kindrig. "I would very much appreciate your advice or your aid toward me to get my children down from in Colbert, Ga., on the A. P. Dunway farm in Oglethorpe County three miles south at Colbert, Ga.

"I am a poor woman of your race much needing advice or help that my boy may be a man to defend his people, though the chances are poor when he is raised as a slave.

The French government has informed the Soviet that the Roumanian government has given its pledge it had no aggressive or unfriendly intentions toward Russia.

N. I. A. Speakers, Pointing to Current Events in China, Bid Negroes of the World. Prepare Also to Acquit Themselves Like Men in the Near Future NEW YORK, Liberty Hall, Sunday Night, January 23.—The weekly mass meeting of the New York branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was marked by an excellent program and the presence of a plethora of speakers who gave the great gathering many an inspirational thought to ponder. Several vocal solos were rendered and were well received, while the Universal Band, under Bandmaster Hassell, received well-merited applause for two fine selections. The meeting was under the guidance of Hon. W. A. Wallace, Secretary-General, in the absence of Hon. Fred A. Toote, acting President-General, who is on a tour of the U. S. branches. He issued a warning to the Negroes of the world not to be fooled by the assertions of a band of so-called politicians that they were selling Liberian land at $5 per acre. Mr. Wallace pointed out that only citizens of Liberia could own land in that country, and characterized the much vaunted sale as a scheme to exploit the race-consciousness and love of Africa that had come to Negroes through the advent of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. MR. C. H. MILLER'S ADDRESS Mr. C. H. Miller, third vice-president of the New York local, was the first speaker. He said his mind tonight was surcharged with Garveyism. Last week he visited a show entitled "The Big Parade." Most of his hearers who went overseas knew all about it, but he had watched that parade from end to end, and in spite of the thousands of black men who went over to France there was not a single one depicted in that parade. The only black face he saw was that of a barber shaving a man, getting him ready for his round of pleasure. Mr. Miller then spoke on the subject, "A Salutation to the Hon. Marcus Garvey." He said the great leader had indeed earned the undying gratitude of black men, for he had given them a priceless institution through which to mould a happy future. Prepare for Leader's Return He then made a sthring appeal for unity and cooperation, one with the other, telling his hearsens that when they read the front page message of the Hon.

This university, was recently purchased and is controlled by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. ve Page for unity it did not mean that the members should visit their Liberty Halls, hear speeches and often go away; it meant that they should get down to business, get their thoughts and hearts together; it meant to reach out, to put forth every effort so as to put over the great program. When the Hon. Marcus Garvey is released he will need men and women to assist him in his work, and it should be the duty of each and every one to prepare themselves now, so that when he returns they will be able to shoulder the Red, Black and Green, and conduct themselves in such a way that the entire world will be forced to respect the great leader and his demands for his race. MISS ETHEL COLLING'S ADDRESS miss Ethel Collins, second lady vice- president, next smoke. She said: president, next spoke. She said, "The arrest, and imprisonment of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the moving spirit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, has sent a terrific shock into the consciousness of all oppressed peoples the world over: That the THE NEGRO WORLD; SATURDAY, JANUARY 29, 1927 leader has been separated from his followers by prison bars, and this personal activities in a measure curtailed, is no sign, however, that the association will do demoralized. "The blood of martyrs has always been and will always be the life of the cause they represent when that cause is just and rightful, hence the renewed efforts and determination on the part of its followers of the great cause is everywhere apparent. The cause of Africa's redemption is a just one, and awakened. Negroes the world over are deformed to gain for themselves their rightful heritage, Africa. No. Longer Shudder "Ngrocs are getting a larger conception of Africa. A few years ago, whenever we heard of Africa we shuddered with fear, thinking only of the wild beasts of the forests. We had no conception of the lordliness, the grandeur, the nobility of her ancestors. We are learning it now, and Africa is not a strange, mysterious place to us today. Our conceptions are getting so clarified that we see Africa as one of the beautiful robes in the Garden of the Gods. Looking Toward Home Looking Toward Home "Surely the time has come for the Negro to look homeward. He has won civilization and Christianity at the price of slavery. The Negro who is thoughtful and serviceable feels that God intended him to give to his brothers the light of his civilization. We want to return and settle down and build up a civilization of our own. We would only be doing what the Pilgrim Fathers or the Colonists did, who laid the foundation of America's great republic. We want those things that others have fought and died for—Freedom and Liberty, Africa, like a bereaved mother, holds out her hands for her exiled children scattered all over the globe. Almost 400 years ago her children were torn from her rich storehouse of gold, genius and wealth. It was war and revolution that spread ignorance and barbarian over her regions. Someone is responsible for her present state. Someone is heavily indebted to her. New Courageous Spirit The Negroes today are looking into the mirrors of race consciousness and building themselves as a full-fledged sons of God. The cowardice which has characterized them in the past has given way to a new spirit of courage through the inspiration of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. The heart of Africa is throbbing; and the sound of that throbbing is audible throughout the world. The title of race consciousness is sweeping the world, nations are demanding justice, even at this hour. Let the Negro have a country of his own. Help him to return to his original home "AFRICA," and there give him the opportunity that the Universal Negro Improvement Association seeks in the creation of an African nation for Negroes where the greatest latitudes would be given to work out his racial ideals. (Applicant): HON. THOMAS BROOKS' ADDRESS Hon. Thomas E. Bergoks. Commissioner of North and South Carolina, was the next speaker. Explaining that he had just returned to the city from his sphere of labor, Mr. Brooks congratulated the membership on being once again in their historical temple, Liberty Hall. His only regret was that he was not present to aid them in the fight. "I have just arrived," he said, "from one of the hottest chambers of hell, a place where the Negro is being treated not as a Negro, but as a dog, and in some respects not as a dog, but as nothing. And I trust that these people who have been giving you trouble here could take a trip with Brooks when he is going back to that section of the country, for they would soon be brought to their sons; they would soon realize what a crime it is considered by thousands of Negroes for anyone to seek to hamper or destroy the work of the Hon. Marcus Garvey." "Never Say Die" Proceeding to speak on the subject, "Never Say Die." Mr. Brooks gald he was glad that through the coming of Marrus Curvoy the old, complacent attitude of the Negro had been changed and today there was nothing that would stay the progress of the New Negro. Certain Negroes were still groaning and monging and, praying to the white man's God as he had taught them, but the vast majority of Negroes had 'got new insight and nothing could bring them back to their one-time path. Lynched By Mob The speaker then related a lynching horror which he said, took place at Benufont about four weeks ago, when a Negro's home was surrounded by a mob of 160 bloodthirsty white men and the body of the Negro fleded with bullets as he emerged. Out of 160 bullets that had winged their flight of death, 73 had inken effect. That was the sort of thing that was happening, not in Asia, not in Europe, not in Africa, but in the South of those United States; and the same thing is going to happen in New York City unless Negroes beheaded themselves and beaten out among themsolves and pushed forward the work so ably outlining by the Hon. Marous Garvey. China's Awakening The snaker them referred to happenings in the East, where the yellow man was making his voice heard. He remembered the warning which Marcus, Garvey had uttered a long time ago, when he said in words like these: "Beware, Mr. White, Man, how you treat my brother; treat him lustily for the day will come, when the yellow man of Asia and the black man of Africa will rise in their might and the day of reckoning will be at hand." The black man had not risen up yet and he honed the oppressor would change his ways before it was too late. "Never say die"—that must be the Negro's watchword. "After again blinding his henchmen together as soo main-to work for the redemption of Africa and bring about the release of the lion. Marcus Garvey counseled: 'Lot us forget' the past, let us forget the blackerings we have had; let us forget the obstacles we have had in our path; let us forget what you have done to me and I to you—let us come together and help to put this program over. And let me tell you the same thing that is happening in China, the same thing that is happening in Mexico, the same thing that is happening elsewhere in the world, is the same thing that will happen in Africa. "Are you ready?" Let us march forth as never before in this great year of 1927 and prove, to the world, East and West, North and South, that the Red, the Black and the Green shall fly not only in Africa, but in every part of the world where Negroes desire to have it fly, because it is the only flag for you and for me And, in conclusion, let me sincerely trust that the day is not far distant when the Negroes of the Western hemisphere will close their ranks and fall in line with the mighty organization, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which is working under One God, with One Aim, One Destiny." (Applause.) CAPT A. H. WOODLEY'S ADDRESS Capt. A. H. Woodley, of the Universal African Legions, was the next to address the meeting. He said he had been very much inspired by reading an article by Benito Mussolini, Premier of Italy, which appeared that day in the New York World. After reading excerpts from the article, Mr Woodley said what gave him most food for thought was Mussolini's statement that a people that is fit to live must prepare itself to defend its existence, and that man-power was more important than machines. The more he (the speaker) studied the statements of eminent thinkers of the age which appeared in the public press from time to time, the more settled was he in his belief that the Hon. Marcus Garvey was the greatest leader of modern times, and that, given an opportunity, he would leave as great and mating an impress upon twenty-eth century civilization as any man of other times. Praises the Executives Mr. Woodley then paid a tribute to the present executive officers of the Association, declaring that he was convinced that they were hard working and 'deserving of the complete trust and confidence of the membership at large. It was very comforting, he said, after the experiences the Association had had in the past with some of its chosen leaders, to find men laboring so dearly and unselfishly for the cause. MR. CHARLES JAMES ADDRESS Mr. Chirles James, second vice-president of the New York Local, followed. He said there was little he could say that evening, as the Hon. Thomas Brooks, who spoke before, had robbed him of his speech. Like a good soldier, however, he desires to say a word of encouragement. "Are we ready," he asked, "to go out, and fight for ourselves, fight the battles which mean our future existence, or are we prepared to be slaves for the rest of our lives, or are we prepared to die? These are the questions which you must ponder deep in your minds at the present time." Practice Self·Help "The Universal Negro Improvement Association," he continued, "with its broad program, and Marcus Garvey, with his vision, caused the Negro race, which was going in the wrong direction, to turn about, and now Negroes no longer think and believe that all that is needed to insure their future happiness is to get on bended knees and pray to God—the white man's God. They have learned that if they would avoid the abyss of destruction they must practice golf help, they must elevate themselves, above all, they must unite. And only time and the history will be able to tell, to what extent Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, with the great rallying cry that has created the globe have contributed to the pres-ent determined spirit of the oppressed and abused everywhere to settle all for themselves and gain and embrace You can make your hair lovely It's so easy and costs so little every one of us should have soft, lovely hair nowadays. All you need do, is apply a little of the Improved Pluko Hair Dressing before you comb and brush your hair. The packages you get at the low, 50c and 25c prices are so liberal in size that long before you have used up your first one, your hair will become so soft and straight, you can arrange it in any style you wish and it will stay that way, always looking smooth and glossy. Mrs Connie Pollmore, the attractive agent and dancer with "Connie's It Is Relief," is putting at the more important career through out the South side I made my way and straight, and keep it always smooth and glossy just by using a little of the Improved Pluko before I comb it."

A copy of their new book on hair heads: "Be Proud of Your Hair." Liberty and freedom or perish in the attempt to obtain it "The leadership of the Hon. Marina Gavney was an intelligent leadership. Then why should we not follow it? The Universal Negro Improvement Association is not only satisfied to teach you back to the motherland, but it says wherever you are, "Improve your conditions." You talk about lynching, in the United States of America, but lynching will continue until the Negro gets a government. Until he gets something to combat the other follow that lynches him. lynching will continue because" some white men say it is necessary to lynch the Negro to keep him in his place. Worrying About Life and Living The New Negro is not content to stand in the back and be led for all time by the white man. No, we are going to stay right here on this earth and rule ourselves. We are not going to worry about the milk and honey above; we shall strive to earn a dollar here, so that we can go to the grocery store and buy all the milk and honey we need. We are not going to worry about golden slippers in Heaven; we intend to get money and buy brown shoes down here. We are not worrying about the Garden of Eden—our Garden of Eden is Africa; Africa is ours, and we shall get it, or report to God the reason why." (Applause) HON. W. A. WALLACE'S ADDRESS Hon. W. A. Wallace, Secretary-General, was the next speaker. He said, "Before presenting the next speaker I want to call your attention to a matter of interest to Negroes throughout the country. For some time recently Liberia has been very much in the mouths of the people through the different venues of publication. A few days ago great headlines appeared informing the American public that land was for sale at a nominal price per acre in Liberia. "For some time Liberia has been offering to the American Negro a certain number of acres of land if the American Negro would go to Liberia and take up residence there and cultivate this land. Since Firestone has gone into Liberia there are those of a political coterie who are supposed to be beyond all criticism and who have come to the conclusion that Liberia's land is now worth $5 an acre to the American public, and thus they come to this country offering to the American Negro land in Liberia at the rate of $5 per acre. Only Citizens of Liberia Can Own the Land "Every Negro who has any knowledge of Liberia knows that no one can own land in Liberia unless he is a citizen of Liberia, and yet some people are announcing to the public that they are selling at a nominal price for a land in Liberia, and they will hold it in trust for the buyers, and, in case of death, it will go to this particular banking institution that is fostering its bonds upon the public for sale. When if the buyers fail to make payments for the land it becomes the property of the salesmen. And so it is their property anyway. This reminds me of the man who left his trap open at both ends. Asked why he did that he said, "If I don't catch him accoming, I will catch him aging." "And so you see that certain persons are determined to take a detainable advantage of the inspiration which the Universal Negro Improvement Association has given to Negroes throughout the world, to try to use it for their personal aggrandizement." "And so we are sending out a warning to Negroes not only of the Universal Negro Improvement Association but to Negroes throughout the country not to buy a single item of the land because you can't own it until you go We cannot top often remind the agents of This Negro World that if we are to give them good service in the way of early mailings, prompt replies to inquiries and so on, it is first necessary that they do their duty to us by way of prompt and regular payments, clearly and plainly written letters, and prompt notice to us at headquarters Suppose we take one thing at a time. Prompt and regular payments are very necessary indeed because we do business on a very small margin of profit and because (on account of our being a propaganda paper) we depend more upon agency sales than is usually the case. To explain White newspapers do nearly all of their earnings from advertising. The monies received for sale of actual comics is a negligible portion of their gross income. But because of certain plants in our editorial platform and certain well-defined policies which we value above dollars and cents, we do not attract certain classes of well-paid advertising that other (white) newspapers do. We are therefore more dependent on agency reprisals than we otherwise would be. It follows, therefore, that the agent who falls down on the job embarrasses us to just that extent. We are advising those agents in all self-business who persist in ignoring the rules under which they work for us that they may find themselves supervised sometime in the near future by more dependable persons. Indeed, it may be necessary if conditions continue as they are to demand of our agents as a prerequisite to doing business, the usual deposit as a safeguard to us against loss from delinquent accounts. Understand us, please. We do, not want to do this, but may be forced to it from elicer necessity. Report Forms While on the subject of prompt and regular reports we want to give advice as to the use of our report forms. These forms were drawn up after pattaking effort on the part of our accountant and the former business manager. They are very clearly worked, yet we find intelligent persons filling in the lower portion which says plainly "Don't Milk," and leaving blank the upper portion which calls for needed information. Again we note that many agents will not use the blankes we send them. We also have postal cards with the address of the paper on one side and a printed form on the other side for use in ordering changes in supply. These, as well as report blanks, may be bled by written request from West 135th street New York City. Fill in the upper portion of your report blank with your name and address in full, the amount of money being sent, the dates of the charges you are paying for and the number of copies desired or FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH Never_Discovered but thousands of people testify that POTENTINE restores Rep.

MAIR ress Manager the agents of This Negro World that service on the way of early mailings, so on, it is first necessary that they prompt and regular payments, clearly prompt notice to us at headquarters received as the case may be. Don't forget to state whether you send P. O. money order, check, draft, stamps or cash, and if you send cash don't fall to register your letter "U. S. postage stamps may be sent for small sums of a dollar or less if the agent is so locating to make it difficult for him to secure money orders, etc. We come now to the matter of plainly written letters. A good many persons have no careless as to send us mumps accompanied by letters lacking addresses. At times not even the city or state is indicated. We have many such letters on file which we hold for the complaints which in most cases are sure to come when time passes and the writers fail to expresses. In some few cases they never, write again, and as we can't write them (not having their addresses they no doubt give us all sorts of bad names). Of course, if the writers are old agents we have their addresses on file. Another important thing for agents to remember is that when they want more papers or less, or when they don't have their addresses if, will not do merely to set down, the new quantity or address without further comments it is better to call on attention to it directly because handling as we have hundreds of reports, every week, we are, only humanly liable to overlook some that are not directly called on our mate. Finally, we wish to advise you on the matter of complaints. If you fail to get your supply or if it is late; if your bill is wrong—in short, if there is anything about which you wish to complain—write to us when it happens. Don't let the tractor get cold. This is especially true of case calling for the tractor of lost remittances or supplies. You must remember that there is a limit to the possibility of finding what goes astray. In the case of the large railroads and express companies and, to a lesser extent, of the Federal land Office, you simply can't get results if your tracer is missed within five to seven days of the trip delivery is due. We have all the trouble of tracing the stress. It is only fair that you give us the information to go on in time to make it effective. Out of these articles and paste them up somewhere for handy reference. Do what we ask and we in our turn will do all we can to give you service as neatly as we can make it. In my week's issue we will discuss advertising and what a life news agent can do and earn our insurance: it THE EASIEST TO USE DURING the past ten days there have been outbreaks in Mexico between the State and the Catholic masses said to be under the leadership of persons high in authority in the Catholic Church which would indicate the existence of grave possibilities for weal or woe. The fact that trouble with the United States, growing out of the alleged interference with American property rights and concessions in Mexico and the interference of Mexico in the affairs of Nicaragua, where the United States has interests it declares it will protect—complicates matters, which if a crisis should be reckoned might easily result in a war in which many of the Latin American States might become involved. The United States has asserted its right and purpose to interfere in the domestic affairs of certain Latin American States, because it has life and property interests in them, which it is determined to protect, and it is left for the States concerned to determine in how far they will submit to this interference. The issue is a very sensitive one and has always caused clashes between nations in the past when carried far enough. The United States has not in its past history tolerate, the interference of other nations in its domestic affairs. But the Monroe Doctrine must be served. The United States will tolerate no interference of other nations in the affairs of the Occidental States, and it will protect its interests in those States at any costs. If the Latin American States do not like it they can resent it and assert their independence of it, if they think they are strong enough to do. Is it right? Is the attitude of the United States the correct one? It depends entirely upon how you regard the question. The United States does not interfere in the affairs of Europe and it does not tolerate the interference of European States in the affairs of the Americas, the existence of the British government of the Dominion of Canada being generally regarded as something not desirable but unavoidable under the circumstances. Mexico is a Catholic country. The determination of the Calles administration to restrict the activities of the Catholic Church, civil affairs has provoked an antagonism which it was expected, would lead to a great civil war; but so far there has been only a gesture of such, and the general hope is that a way will be found out of the misunderstandings without such a war. THE DISGRACEFUL LYNCHING RECORD THE lynching record of the United States from reconstruction days to the present time numbers quite 4,000 persons. Some years there is a falling off only to have an increase in other years. It appears to be a matter of temperament. Most of these lynchings have occurred in the Southern States, where all of the machinery of making and enforcing the laws is in the hands of the white people, with the Negro having no voice whatsoever in the matter, although he is made principally the victim. There is no excuse for lynch law in such States. When they allow the mob to take prisoners out of the jails and during their trials and lynch them they abdicate the functions of orderly government, which the Federal constitution makes obligatory upon them, and they invite the interference of Federal legislation which they so much object to. Lynching is purely a police matter of the States, but if the States do not control it the Federal government can be called upon to do so. The United States is the only nation which tolerates lynch law. The Southern States, where most of the Negro people are citizens, are the only States in the republic which encourage lynch law and protect it by failure to arrest and prosecute and punish those guilty of taking the law into their own hands. There are evident signs that the nation has become aroused to the injustice and shamefulness of the lynching lawlessness and that a way will be sought and found to destroy it by legal process. It is high time that this should be done. Toleration further of lynch law is a national crime. CHINESE REBELLION AGAINST EUROPEAN DOMINATION ONE of the marvels of the times is the Chinese protest against European domination in its affairs. The fact that China is torn by civil war, with two factions striving for control, gives point and force to the protest, which it has made against the encroachments European nations have gradually made upon territory and the administration of Chinese affairs. Great Britain, of course, has been the greatest offender, but she has had the assistance of other powers. Japan included, and it is to be noted with interest that Great Britain has shown a wonderful disposition to concede many of the reforms demanded by the Chinese. It begins to look as if China has awakened from its sleep of ages and is striving to place itself in position to do great things in the modern world. And India and the Philippines, neighbors of China, begin to feel the urge of race consciousness and the right to rule themselves without British and American interference.

ANNUAL DUES AND ASSESSMENTS SHOULD BE PAID The success of the High Executive Council, in saving Liberty Hall to the association, in spite of the many efforts to take it away from the association, is gratifying to all of the membership, but it has cost a lot of money in lawyers' fees and court charges. It has increased the upkeep burdens of the parent body, and it has made it more necessary than otherwise might be the case that the members everywhere should make a special effort to pay their annual dues and other assessments to the parent body. We feel that they realize this fact and that they will make a special effort to meet their obligations to the parent body. The work of a great organization such as the Universal Negro Improvement Association requires a great deal of money to meet its obligations. Don't forget this fact. Pay your annual dues and other assessments promptly. SELF-RELIANCE THE SUPREME RACE NEED EVERYWHERE SELFISHNESS and greed have been the parasitical forces in the life of mankind as far as we have historical records to prove it, and we dare say they were the most destructive forces before the acts of men were made a matter of record: The efforts to restrain the selfish and greedy from devouring everything have age-long and consumed most of the best thought and most of the time of the best of men and women. Never before in the history of mankind were the forces of selfishness and greed more widespread and organized than at this time. They are at work in every nation and in every race, working to exalt the privileged few at the expense of the disorganized and ignorant many. It happens just now that the white races are the exponents and leaders of the conquering and exploiting scourges of mankind, but it was not always so. The black, the red and the brown races have each had their turn at the business of domination, and each in its turn may have it again, when the white race has been weighed in the balance and judged by its works. In his front page article last week in The Negro World President-General Marcus Garvey discussed at length the reign of selfishness and greed which have gripped mankind as a boonconstrictor grips its victim and threatens the wreck and ruin of Christian civilization. The question is, will they be allowed to do so, as they have done it in other ages? Among other things President-General Garvey says: "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." • We like individuality. We believe in *moral courage* to make our own way, without waiting for somebody else to blaze the way. We believe in standing up in open meetings and announcing our choice before the crowd begins to cheer. We have guts enough in our belly, to drive the band wagons and make room for those who wait at the corner to see which way the crowd is going—Atlanta Independent. Christian salvation was designed to save our civilization from the destructive forces of selfishness and greed. It was denigued that the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man would, by organization, preachment and example, save mankind from themselves by the acceptance and practice of the homely virtues of respecting the rights of others and by just and fair dealing one with another. Will the design break down because the white races have discarded the teachings of Jesus, in their statesmanship, and in opposition to the teachings of the Christian churches? It remains to be seen. The conquest and apportionment of the African continent by the white races among themselves and the subordination of the conquered people to the uses in their freedom and labor and lands by the white races, is the triumph of the selfish and greedy principle of statesmanship rather than that of the churches, which are uniformly opposed to wars and conquests and the enslavement of alien races. What then? It is the business of those who are conquered and exploited to oppose the policy of wrong and outrage. The people of Africa and Asia and the Islands of the Seas are in a position which requires that they exert to the utmost their powers of self-reliance in regaining and protecting their just rights. If they have not developed the high qualities of self-reliance, which is a supreme need of the Negro race everywhere, it is their business, first and foremost, to develop it by a rigid and relentless process of education. In his address at Liberty Hall last Sunday night, Chancellor F. Levi Lord, among other things, said: "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 sepses 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." Only by Negro leadership can the status of the race be lifted. Public office is bought at too high a price when it causes a man to abandon his people—Kansas City Call. A great many of us "go gunning" for jobs and positions without taking into consideration our duties; preparation is a powerful thing in one's favor when he sees positions of trust. Oklahoma Eagle. Those who look awake at Negro mortality would do well to turn their attention to the task of seeing that public institutions give a just measure of curatives and comforts to the Negro. The Nation cannot progress as long as discrimination exists in the availability of public instrumentalities of human preservation—St. Paul Echo. All workers in the field of service for people have to cut through the oppositions that the enemy to truth sits up. Yet after all the promises of God are sure, and in faith we can master if we think we can. Springfield Informe. That is to say, if you have not got self-reliance, get it, as without it you can accomplish nothing necessary and worth. That is very well understood by the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association because their leaders have preached of a gospel taught them by their teachers.

The true that we do not know what the future holds for us, but basing our actions on the past, we know we have not had a square deal. Therefore, we must insist, yes, demand a new deal in politics for the coming year. In the past we have been satisfied with too little. There is little help for a people who are satisfied with their present status.—St. Louis Argus. Tet. in the efforts of modern man to acquire riches by building commercial institutions through which to charter and trade, or, to be more modern, "to do business," you will find listed among the assets one most significant thing which he describes as "goodwill." This he finds necessary, for without goodwill the business would be a failure, and without goodwill governments would prove failures. Without goodwill, nations will fail. Without goodwill, civilization will crumble.—Pacific Defender The habit of regarding a colored man as an inferior has become so fatal in most white men, minds that either consciously or unconsciously they恐 any representation by a colored man on his own behalf, unless accompanied by service and admiration, restraint and guidance. We received during the holidays most attractive "The Season's Greetings" folder from Marcia Garvey, the famous West Indian leader, who is now incorporated in the Atlanta, Ga. Penflefentary, who wrote in his well-known chitography, "Mr. John Mitchell" while the wording of the folder is as follows: "To-great you most heartily at this holiday season and to wish you and yours in very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Marcia Garvey." What a cheerless, surrounding for this wonderful man. Juggernaut.

NEGRO COMMUNITY CENTER IN BROOKLYN, NEW YORK A mass meeting was held at the Church of Our Father, Grand avenue and Lefort place, Brooklyn, to further the movement to create a colored center in Brooklyn. At this time the Rev. Dr. Thomas E. Petition, who has been the pastor for more than twenty-five years, welcomed the congregation of the Nassarare Congregation Church, which is about to take over the property. This purchase is considered a step forward in the movement to establish an institutional church center in Brooklyn for the uplift of the Negroes. The Rev. Dr. Hauury H. Proctor, pastor of the Nassarare Church and a former moderator of the New York City Congregational Church Association, was called from Atlanta seven years ago, where he had devoted twenty-five years to community church work and had established the first institutional church in the South for his race, to build up a similar center in Brooklyn. The following are on a committee working to make this movement clear wide The Rev Dr. S Purke Calman, Dr L. T Reed, Dr. J.

The suspicion lingers that Mr. Pesadik was boosting the Street Cleaning Department. "Reconct assaults upon Jewish citizens in Roumania were formally brought to the attention of Secretary of State Kellegg yesterday by a delegation of the American Jewish Congress," says a Washington news despatch. The delegation, it seems, wants the Secretary to take his eyes off China and Nicaragua and Mexico long enough to impress upon the Roumanian government the desires of the American people for the just and human treatment of all minority groups in Roumania.

The entire group, writes Mr. Pickens, was photographed at least 50 times, motion pictures being made of the speakers in action. "Among the Russian leaders Mr. Pickens has conferred with are Kalinin, sisters of Trotiky and Lenin, and prominent editors. He reports that 'The Fire in the Flint,' by Walter White, and 'Bursting Bonds' and 'The Vengeance of the Gods,' by Mr. Pickens himself, are to be translated into Russian, and perhaps put on the stage as well as made into motion pictures." Now this is too much. And we are not thinking of the motion pictures. China has a war on its hands. If the newspapers are to be believed, the Chinese generals who are not busily engaged leading the young Chinese hosts in their fight for Chinese independence are either "warring on this side or that for pay or turning robber between battles."

The Negro educator told the men and women of Honolulu that it was a man from Honolulu "who laid-the foundation of the present attitude of the black race—that it is honorable to labor with one's hands," etc., etc. Not so bad, ph.? But listen to this coming from "one of the foremost educators of the Negro race in America." The Honolulu Star-Bulletin of December 3 quotes Dr. Moton as follows: "I was asked in California would the white race always rule the world. I don't know and I don't care, but I do know that taking the history of the wpid, empires and races, have reached their ninth and declined. The white race will rule so long as it is just to greet races.

Prevention is a way better than cure, and this is in true in the case of colds as it is in anything else. The best way to avoid colds is to keep your general resistance high. Keep in as good condition as possible. Make certain that you are eating plenty of nourishing food. Set sufficient fresh air, sunlight and rest. Take a certain amount of exercise daily. Avoid constipation. When you feel the beginning of a cold, take measures to break it up immediately. Take a good antihistamine and, if possible, be bed. Avoid drifts but get sufficient fresh air.

PAY SAME NOW to the Secretary of your Branch, who will in turn forward same immediately to Headquarters, addressed to the Secretary-General, 56 West 135th Street, New York City CARNEGIE HALL Wednesday Evening, January 26, at 8:30 ROLAND HAYES TENOR TICKETS AT BOX OFFICE MASON & HADIDN PIANO "AMERICA AS MUCH INDIAN'S COUNTRY AS OURS," SAYS JUDGE Test Case Over-Status of Indian Born in Canada Before Federal Judge — Classification as 'Alien' Ridiculous, Court Thinks PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 21—The burden of proof that an American Indian, born outside the confines of the United States is an alien, was placed on the shoulders of Uncle Sam today when a member of the Iliquois tribe fought deportation to Canada When Judge Oliver B. Dickinson of the United States District Court took the case under admission at the conclusion of argument, it appeared from his remarks the Government would have to furnish conclusive proof that the Indian is an alien and not a word of the United States. Judge Dickinson said the United States is "as much the country of the Indian as it is yours" and that he would be very much surprised if the Immigration Law affected the aborigines. The Indian is Paul Diabo, born on a reservation at Guthrie, and lives there with his wife. His exclusion is sought on the ground that having been born outside the United States, he is an alien and cannot enter this country without a visa, despite the Jay treaty of 1734 between the United States and England, giving all Indiana the right to cross and recross the Canadian border at will. The Federal authorities contend the treaty was abrogated by the War of 1842. Six Nations Took it Up. Diabo, who is a structural ironworker, was deported to Canada last March and, intended to "forget" the incident, but the Six Nations, the confederation of the six big Indian tribes of North America, regarded the action as a breach of faith under the Jay treaty and induced Diabo to come back and be rearrested so a test case could be made. Seeking to uphold the immigration authorities, Claudie O. Lanciana, Assistant United States District Attorney, read to Judge Dickinson the provision of the Immigration Act of 1024, that all persons born outside the United States are considered aliens. He said this applied to Indians. "Why, the effect of that law would be to make this man a British subject." Judge Dickinson remarked. "An Indian is a member of the Indian Nation, and while it is not rocked Don't Get Up Nights Bladder Weakness, Often Mistaken For Kidney Trouble, Quickly Relieved by Wonderful New Treatment and You Sleep in Comfort TRIAL TREATMENT PREE Bladder weakness, because it disturbs the sleep, is responsible for thirstiness of cats and dogs.

Indiana Our Equals Here "The whole question in this case," the Judge added, "is whether the Immigration Act applied to Indiana. I will be very much surprised to find that it does." Mr. Lancaster study to his definition of the Immigration law that in a person born outside of the United States is an alien, and when he said in reply to a question from the Court that under a strict interpretation of this clause an Indian is an alien, the Judge remarked: "It's as much his (the Indian) country as it is ours, and he has as much have, to call it as such, and we have gone further and told the Indian, 'We will call you our wards and stand behind you as guardians should stand behind their wards and see that you got all the projection and everything else you are entitled to.' The Court allowed Mr. Landaua "all the time he wanted" to file a brief to convince the Court that Indians come within the classification of "alliens." Maquillie, Diahre will be free on ball. In concluding the hearing Judge Dickinson said to Mr. Lanelaan, "if you can show me that the law says this man must go back to Canada, back hell go, but if you can't show that of course hell, be allowed to stay."

He said he would go to make a silent speech. He thereupon called upon ten persons to go to the rostrum. Placing them in line a few inches apart, he proceeded to this way among them, and observed that that was symbolical of the condition the Hon. Marrus Garrau found before he organized the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Mr. Lord next made the subjects of his demonstration lock hands, and attempted to repeat his previous in-and-out march, but, of course, without success. "This," he explained, "was the position today with the Negroes of the world, thanks to the teaching and inspiration of the great founder of the U. N. I. A." The guidance cheered the demonstration to the echo. Blind Negro Youth Gets-Self-Reliance Prize Gear-Share & Prize WHITE PLAINS, Jan. 22.

Wise Words and Otherwise STATUTE If you were asked offhand "What is the most important thing in the world?" what would you answer? You might answer with another question. "What do you mean by important?" Do you prefer to something in the matter on the physical world? Two most important things to life are oxygen and hydrogen. Without them, no water to drink, no fertility on earth, no air to breathe, no fire. Oxygen and hydrogen combined make up the water necessary to growth, and decay. Without oxygen, no atmosphere, life impossible. Yet there is something more important than oxygen or hydrogen so far: real life good and that is JUSTICE. Without justice men would be better off lacking water and air, for then the human who would cease to live — New York, American. Now You Tell Onel William Rudolph Hearet, who is advocating an English speaking union, to dominate the rest of mainland, says Great Britain, United States, Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are found in common tones of language, literature tradition and blood, are not AGGRESSIVE now MILITARISTIC, and can, with suitable armaments, keep the NEACE of the world. Preparedness There is nothing sinister about preparation for war. The electrification of a railway is a preparation for war. An increase in the means of communication of a country is a preparation for war. A ship that takes the sea for the first time adds to the resources of a nation for war. The teaching of a nation's history is a preparation for war. But all these preparations for war are insultant if a people plunge into the sexualism of a peace that is heinful and selfish and self-satisfied, leaving them soft in body, weak in mind, abnumbing from physical exertion no less than from mental effort. Preparation for war involves too many ideas that are economic, social, cultural, to be depended wholesale by pacifists who talk about war as if they knew what it was and know how to avoid it. It is a only to avoid war whenever possible, but it takes the highest genius as well as the highest character to do that. Dr. Washington Was Kind and Considerate In Dealing With Others Mr. B. R. Taylor, the vice-principal of Tuskegee Institute, which was founded and made famous by the late Dr. Eshoker T. Washington, is a recent talk to the students, emphasized the fact that Dr. Washington was very kind and considerate in his thoughts and relations with others. Mr. Taylor said on those points as reported in the Tuskegee Message: Our own Dr. Washington, founder of this school, was another strong, dominating person, and yet no one that I know was more courteous and kind than he. He was always thinking of others and of how he could snow his kindness both in word and deed. One or two incidents may illustrate what seemn. During Dr. Washington's life time a group of teachers gathered in his office for a conference and one of the men looking over some pictures on a table saw one, which evidently pleased him very, much, for he continued to study it. When the meeting was over he again examined the picture. Dr. Washington did not say a word about having not noticed this interest in the picture, but this teacher was surprised and delighted on teaching home that night to find the picture sent to him and his wife with the compliments of Dr. Washington. Dr. Washington had noted the pleasures which this teacher found in this beautiful picture and he saw an opportunity to make the teacher happy. A simple thing, you say. Yes, it is true it was a simple thing, but this teacher never failed to speak of it and was one of Dr. Washington's most devoted admirers. He said that anybody who was as busy as Dr. Washington, who was thoughtful and considerate enough of others to do a thing like this, was to him a most wonderful man. Another incident in the life of Dr. Washington which showed his kindness for others. It was in the winter but the weather had been very mild. One night it suddenly grew freezing cold. Snow and snow fell, and because of the sudden change it was hard to keep comfortable even in well built houses. Early the following morning, by day break, he summoned some of the busiest and highest officers of the school to his house. These fellows wondered what had happened that a meeting should be called at such an early hour. Dr. Washington: "Every people that ask to live must prepare to defend, its existence. The spirit is more important in that respect than the mythical means. You cannot disarm a people unless you destroy its manhood." - Benito Mussolini Five Useful Rules "We have learned alive-rules to recover our national spirit!" cover our national spirit "1.

No people can nove be "it for liberty" while it is oppression. The oppressor can always prove their crimes and foolhaziness in justification of his own actions. If we idealize them we shall grow disheartened before we can help them.

Some one asked how it would be paid for. He answered that he did not know and his answer showed that the money was the last thing in his mind. He said, relief the suffering now and we will think about the expense afterward. "Miss Washington affirmed said that he was realless all right and continually said to her that there must be much suffering and that all of us must help relieve it. WASHINGTON Jan 22 — One hour frequent criticisms of our Negro physician because they locate in large cities rather than in the center of rural communities behind a large Negro population. Commenting upon the problems of the small-town doctor, the Southwestern Christian Advocate says, The small-town doctor has his problems. Today is the day of high specialization. But how can the small-town doctor specialize? He makes thirty calls a day, and each call represents a different case, a different diagnosis, a different set of conditions. He can no more specialize than can the business man whom he treats for a cold. Today he extracts tonsils, this afternoon he assists in obstetrics tonight he acts a broken arm, and tomorrow he will be pulling teeth or filing glasses or removing an appendix. His territory is too large for him to serve efficiently; he cannot find time for study, or for conferences with his brother physicians, or for vacations. The hours are long: the rest broken and stenchy. And for his long hour, wide knowledge and kindly treatment he receives for his earnings a smaller percentage than any of the small-towners. Because he cannot specialize he must send many of his patients to the city specialists for treatment; and more and more the city, specializes becomes the physician, while the small-town doctor is made a more first-aid station, a sort of emergency helper. This very intelligent and interesting analysis of the problems of rural physicians seems to answer fully the question: "Why do most of our Negro physicians thrive in cities, regardless of the fact, that more than two-thirds of the Negro population is found in the rural districts?" D B Sole Aim of Men of the Upper Class Is to Become President to Rob Treasury and Bestow Favors Upon Friends. For years, marines, taken there by Capt. Smedley Butler, ruled Nicaragua, O. Henry's Anchorage—of no morals, plentious fruits and no tradition laws. They were withdrawn a year ago, landed again during a revolt in May and marched away a second time. Reports of another reign of terror reached here a month later. Conditions there, in the little plot of our neighbor, romanced 'localized,' then stirred the Administration in Washington to drastic action. A man of prominence, who has lived in Nicaragua, has intertwined there and no political affiliations, and who knows the country and its troubles, has written the following article for The World. His name is withheld for public reasons. Blightly over half a million people, the population of the little Republic of Nicaragua, live and have lived for nearly thirty years in object mortality and decadence. Like the inmates of an insanium jail and unconscious of their condition, the people of this Central American state, in general, people, do it all, realize their misery. Beginning with the dictatorhood of General Zelaya, they have not known real peace and prosperity, but instead have witnessed terrorism, idleness and stony moral disintegration. Corruption Focus On Pressure Land The natural wealth and beauty of the country have remained undeveloped and unexplored by virtue of the relative lack and destructive influence of corrupt government. The three notorious dictators of recent times, Pio de Mexico, Castro of Venezuela, and Bobby of Nigeria, were all driven from their respective countries and died in exile, having brought about, each, in their native land, crimes and sin by treason and despotism. They were driven from power and from their country, not by their own vultures or their wretched countenance, but by the moral force and diplomatic justice of the great Republic of the North, the United States; but not until international developments made it tolerable to permit continuation of the unhilified area of Cayton and Palmyra. With the expulsion of Gen. Zampa from Nicaragua, however, no停滞ism was realized in the political, social and material life of Hispaniola Zelaya's ruling kingdom had destroyed the morale of two future generations, and the succession of incompetent Governments since has added day by day to the steady decadence of Nicaragua and the Nicaraguan. Ursurps have attained power and the Presidency, in no way qualified, but instead lacking in the essentials to life in the common record of their fellow men. They have gained commanding position by forces among disarmed and disorganised people who have lost partition through living in fear and political degradation for many years. These despot, obtaining government power by force, have conflated property, demanded their contribution and then warped on the given of them. Will characterised the arrogance, born of ignorance, they have defied the right of neighboring nations to deny them, recognition as Chief Executives of Niagara, thieves have been charities attained and obtained through brutal force among the weak and challenging the tolerance of the elderly nations and constitutional Governments of the rest of the world.

The people of Nicaragua are sound in heart, the better class, is ruthen to the core, the south side and vicious, and the so-called politicians have as their sole aim in life to become President. Qualified or not, the chief ambition of the Nicaraguan man, of the upper class, is to become President because of the opportunity such an office afford to rob the treasury for themselves and their friends who support them in power. Intimate, close knowledge of the methods practiced by a President of Nicaragua to hold himself in power affords unusual interest to people living under constitutional governments. The Nicaraguan President usually gains control of that high office, not by public choice but by assault of a garrison with a few armed men, recruited among the drummers of the laboring class, who prefer serving a revolutionary leader than to do industrial labor. A garrison having been taken by assault, tears spread through the country at the news of a new revolution. Able and important men go to bidding of leave the country to secure what is known as political imprisonment, and this folder narrows into power without available. To then desimine political equipping to his aid a few of the political sympathizers. This, of course, is only a matter of form, for in reality the associates of the President, or his cabinet are merely composed of figures Appointed Congress to Suit Himself If he has no Congress he appoints his own to audit his designation. If he has a Congress of a previous government, his ministers it without formalities and organizes his own. He eliminates judges of courts disqualifying his path to his own legislation, and appoints his own judiciary The President then proceeds to imprison without cause all his political enemies, regardless of age or station in life. The so-called "men" or politicians for political enemies would hardly be criminal in a civilized country. On pretext of war, national law is quickly declared and forced contributions demanded from politician opponents. Upon failure to pay promptly, the individual is placed in jail under terrible privations to commit payment. If this is not forthcoming, whatever or property he may be known to possess is broken into, robbed of, snatching of any value or use, and if possession they and nothing that represents utility or value, they do not have to ruin and destroy, what may be useful to the owner and sold. Protest against these detruses that may reach the President himself, whether made by friend or foe, usually brings out from the lips of the President the content that he is sorry, but that he cannot guarantee against the actions or deaths of his political critics, and the subject is dismised. Any diehit for there and his associates would sell all rights and privileges, franchises, etc. would grant any privileges to obtain American protection to hold himself in power and thereby prevent his political opponents from dislacing him from power. Such a state of affinity reveals a low grade moral status. Something must be found to insure confidence in the people themselves. They must be encouraged to form a government of themselves that will guarantee life and property for themselves as well as for the foreigners. $1,500,000,000 Reported Oil War Stake WASHINGTON, Jan 28.

And Musical Entertainment INT AUSPICES OF East B'klyn Chapter No. 664 at Methodist Church TAGE, Pastor OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey EUROPE FEARS ASIATIC DOMINATION THE Chinese Nationalists continue to hold their own against all and sundry; while Europe is so amazed at the sudden turn of events that she cannot formulate any definite program to save herself in the East. Of course it is too late to do anything constructive. "White superiority" has been smashed to smithereens by yellow hands; which are now busy molding, "yellow prestige." We have already forecast through these columns the far-reaching influence of a United China on the rest of the world, now we find European thinkers voicing a similar opinion—the ex-kaiser of Germany, from his retreat at Doorn, Holland, discusses the restoration of Europe through a United States of Europe and a scrapping of the Versailles dictatorship. He further argues: "That dictatorship is alien to the spirit of the free peoples of Europe. It is crushing that Germanic civilization without which historical races in Europe are doomed to revolt or to total disappearance. "Russia remains a great force, but the real nature of it is unknown. She must establish close relations with the Central Powers to her west. I am speaking of her now ruined industrial life, if she is to have any. From the standpoint of population, Russia has tended rather to become Asiatic. "Between a Germany now over-populated and a Russia somewhat bleak and barren for want of people, the newly created States cast of Germany remain isolated. Those new States must get their culture from Germanic sources or go without any, at all. "If their culture becomes Germanic they may comprise the bulwark against the eventual invasion of western Europe by the Mongol hordes. "You see, then, that a Europe reorganized into united states upon the American model depends upon the fate of Germany. Germany does not yet know what destiny has in reserve for her." M. Caillaux of France recently said "Europe must unite or die," but der kaiser believes that even a United Europe will be eventually invaded by Asiatic. H. G. Wells, writing in the New York Times on the turn of events in China, states: "From the Baltic to the Chinese coasts there is a population of more than five hundred millions even now, and lands of a richness far surpassing all the resources of North America. They are poor countries as yet, but potentially they are very great countries. It would not be difficult to argue that the backbone lines of the world air services of the future must pass over Russia and China anyhow. "Before we dismiss as incredible the development of a powerful and even dominating civilization in the federated Soviets of Russia and Asia, let us recall the contemptuous superiority with which Europe regarded the United States at the outbreak of the Civil War. The East is astir, putting their countries in order, and establishing control of same. After China will follow India, Egypt, Afghanistan, etc. These revolutions are only the working out of evolutionary processes. The cycle of civilization is shifting to the Pacific. Nothing in the world can stop it. Negroes! Prepare yourselves to take advantage of the changes as they occur. AMERICAN JEWS TO RAISE $7,500,000 FOR PALESTINE IN 1927 THROUGH the United Palestine Appeal, all Jewish organizations in America are rallying to raise $7,500,000 to continue the colonization and building up of Palestine. The entire amount for the year's program is $10,000,000, of which 75 per cent must come from America. The officers of the appeal are Dr. Stephen S. Wise, honorary chairman; Judge William M. Lewis, national chairman; Judge Julian W. Mack and Rabbi B. L. Levinthal, honorary vice chairmen; Herman Conheim, national treasurer; Emanuel Neuman, chairman, executive committee, and Bernard Stone, executive secretary. Again, we have our good friend, Judge Julian Mack, figuring among the leaders of the Back-to-Palestine movement. The personnel of the officers is carefully selected—judges, bankers and rabbis. They are the men of vision and means who are leading the masses of their people and providing for their future happiness and security. So unlike the average well-to-do Negro, who does not care whether the poor of his race live or die, and as for a national homeland—"why such an idea is only the crazy dream of Marcus Garvey. Let him build up Africa as America is today, and then we may come, that is if we can tear ourselves away from the company of good white folks." Others appeal to the United States government to get rid of Garvey, and when a Jew (God bless his Hebrew heart) does the trick, they send him telegrams of congratulations, "Thank God you have bagged the tiger." And so the educated Negro asses kick and bray, while the masses continue their fight for a redeemed Africa, a flag and national protection.

New York City THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 29, 1927 To the Lady Presidents of all Divisions: We are urging upon you to immediately call the women of your division together and organize your nurse department. Those that are organized should make a great effort to increase their membership. This is one of the most useful auxiliaries in our organization and an avenue through which much good can be done. Look in your Constitution on page 77; section 2-3, also read carefully all the rules governing this department, and there you will learn of the great benefit to be derived from this auxiliary when it is properly conducted. It is our earnest desire that these departments be immediately put in action everywhere, and it is the special duty of the Lady President, who is matron of the nurses, to do this. BY GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS If I were a novelist I would-write as powerful a story as I could, and I would-call it—"Monoy!". I would begin way back there in the earliest times when men sought power, and something that would stand out to dazzle and fascinate the eyes and ambitions of men in some symbol that would express this power. I would tell about how these earliest of beings sacrificed everything of strength, character and position that this symbol might focus the attention of the weaker ones to them. I would revive the story of Crossus and come down to Rockefeller and Ford. But I would weave in the facts mostly of the power of money, the foolishness of it when grossly applied and the wickedness of it when sought to tear down character, and to make of fine and splendid human beings more pigmies and slaves. I would bring out the love of money in every walk of life. How it hills beauty in the human heart, takes the natural blush from a woman's face and hardens the soul of man. How it buys and buys and buys—giving nothing but tears in return. I would tell of the homes it has wrecked and the towns and cities and nations which it has dehauched. I would tell of the wars which it has fed—of the children robbed of their rights, and of the mothers made sad. Then I would bring get all the good that money has done in the world. I would tell of the sacrifices made by noble men that they might attain great wealth—only to give it away, only to bring about a better world and hapier human beings. I would bring out its great and magnulous power when used as Edison lined use, it—to advance the ways of the world and to give to those who are unfortunate a little better chance among their kind. I would tell what money has done in building schools, libraries, and cleaner cities. I would not forget to mention those who had amassed great wealth, but who had died, poor, because they were born too great to keep it. I would have a hero in my story and a heroine, and somewhere quite hidden would be the story of a love that money couldn't buy! EVDEUTION IS GOING ON NOW DR. DRI. FRANCK BRAN Dr. Chester Stock, a noted paleontologist of the California Institute of Technology, said the other day in a lecture: "The history of the evolution of man to the present day, is a very small chapter in the history of the earth's development as a whole. The entire evolutionary process is going on at the present time as in the past, and it is only logical to assume that it will continue and that modern man represents only one small stage in the great process through the past to the greater growth of the future." A point that many people forget is that evolution is not a thing of the future and it is not exclusively of today, but it is going on now. Perhaps mankind of the year three thousand will differ as much, from us as we do from the anthropoid anes. Just what mankind will be in the remote future is an interesting subject of speculation. Mr. Wells has indulged his inventive faculty on this point. It is rational to suppose that man may practically discard clothing, that almost all drugery will be performed by machinery, that man's memory, will be trained to a prodigious degree, and that there will be some sort of unified religious effort which will take the place of the present-day sectarian endeavors. About these and other subjects, however, any one is free to speculate. The main thing to remember is that we are now undergoing a stage in evolution and that the process has not cooled. It is simply so slow that it seems 'stationary'. Copyright, 1927 Commits Suicide M I A M I. Fla. — Depressed over a stinty gain in weight, Mrs. Rebecca Levy, 31, a native of Russia, writhed a quote to her husband saying she was "too fat to live," and then ended her life by shutting herself in the kitchen of their home and opening the burners on a gas stove. According to physicians, Mrs. Levy weighed about 180 pounds. She is said to have brooded over the rapid manner in which she was aging in weight. To the clashing of martial mush, Ever wont to make hearts glad. Hundreds of obon-hued heroes Filled past, triumphant, but sad. Was it the strains of "Thru' Georgia?" Was it the clashing of "Long Syne?" That brought on that 'feeling, That shilvery creep thru my spine? Was it the dull flash of bayonets, The 'bugle's" "Royal Salute." The dip of the flag forever, Or the walling adieu of the flute? Such were but commonplace vistas, Akin to each yearly review, But the terrible signification Of this I could not eschew. For with a few well-spoken phrases By a mournful roll of the drums, Hearts and ambitions were broken; Hearts that had weathered the guns For a spell I was lost in reveries. I stood noath Ashantis sun. The bushman of crafty King Premre Stormed Britain with beaching guns. Stormed at those human targets. Made tide of chan hued breasls. Ever unfinishing, uns felting. Doing for country their best. With a feeling of veneration For the gallant heroes "gone west." I wended my way to the Kameroons And again they had weathered the test "Should stall acquaintance be forgot And never brought to mind?" On honor's haulet-bordered roll Can we more heroes find? To civil life, we welcome you, "Westes," farewell forever. The cords that bind you to our hearts Not even death can sever THE ZULU GIRL By Roy Campbell When in the sun the hot, red acres smoulder, Down where the sweating gang its labor piles, A girl throws down her hoe and from her shoulder Untinging her child tormented by the flies: She takes him to a ring of shadow pooled By thorn-trees; purpied with the death of ticks. With her sharp nails in slow caresses ruled. Prowl through his hair with soft electric clicks. His sleepy mouth, plugged by the heavy nipple. Like a broad river nighing through its reeds. Yet in that drowgy stream his flesh ambles An old unquenched unsmothered heat— The curbed forcocity of beaten tribes The sullen dignity of their defeat. Her body looms above him like a hill Within whose shade a villago lies at rest. Or the first cloud, no terrible and still. That bears the coming harvest in its breast. Conquernig Paris Boston, Jan. 16.—America's "bathroom civilization" is conquering Paris Most of the big new hotels springing up all over the capital advertise "400 rooms—400 baths" or "200 rooms—200 baths," or whatever their number may be. Yet it was only a few years ago when one bathroom on each floor was considered quite enough. The Park Avenue habit of advertising "apartment: 11 rooms, 7 baths" has not yet invaded Paris, but many of the new apartment buildings have two or three baths in the larger flats. The French seldom mention bathing in conversation, as the English do, but travelers in the two countries mostly agree that Paris is far ahead of any English city in its facilities for keeping clean in a modern manner. --- Divorce is regarded by many as a national evil, a marnace to the stability of the nation. With the happy con- dence of American zealots they advocate a national divorce law, a stand- alization which would make the grounds for divorce the same through-out the United States. There are obvious, but generally ignored, difficulties in the way of such a reform and there is least one post- tro detriment, even if it should be achieved. First of all, there is the obvious objection that there is no national marriage law in the United States. In some parts of the country a marriage between a white person and a Negro is not recognized. In others, there is a similar bar to marriage between members of the white race and members of the yellow race. A national divorce statute presupposes a national marriage statute, which means, that before the former could be accomplished the special racial prejudices of the South and of the West must be overcome, or that the rest of the country must subscribe to them. These also is the even much obvious difficulty of obtaining general and rational agreement throughout the country as to what should constitute grounds for divorce, and consideration of this leads directly to the detriment which would result from the passage of such a law. It is safe to assume that the provisions of such a statute would be a compromise. If the forty-eight states succeeded finally in reaching an agreement as to what should constitute grounds for divorce, it is virtually certain that the opinions neither of New York nor of Nevada would prevail, in the entitlety. That-statute in its final form would be something between the liberal law of Nevada and the rigid law of New York. The enactment of the Federal divorce law would mean then the abandonment of the lofty ideal embodied in the statutes of those States, which, like South Carolina, refuse to grant divorce for any cause whatever, or, like New York, grant them for one cause only—proved indiscretion. It is a question worthy of least of consideration whether, for that reason alone, a national divorce law would be worth the price. It is only within recent years that the high regard which the State of New York and other States show in their statutes for the marriage relation has come to be generally realized, although the principles involved in that conception have been recognized in the courts for more than threequarters of a century. Even now, comparatively few realize the binding solicitation of the marriage contract in this State or the lengthy to which State aid will go to sustain that contract. The law cannot and does not pretend to regulate the affections of either party to the contract. Their mutual regard is something entirely personal in which the law takes no interest unless the manifestations of domestic inflicty become so violent as to constitute a breach of the peace. But the contract itself, entered into under the laws of the State, is something which the law of the State can and will uphold. WANT WOMAN ON BENCH Brooklyn Committe to Ask Walker to Name Offense. Bursaid. Delay. Changing that Brooklyn women have been discriminated against in the award of Judicial honors, the Women's Civic Committees announced yesterday its intention to file a petition with Mayor Walker to appoint a woman as successor to Magistrate Edward J. Dooley in the Family Court in Brooklyn. Magistrate Dooley died last Saturday. It is polished out that Manhattan has had a woman magistrate for seven years in the person of Magistrate Jean Norris, but that there never has been a woman on the bench in Brooklyn. As the Family Court deals with cases affecting women and children, the committees thinks it proper the vacancy should be filled by a woman. MOSCOW.-After thirteen months of difficult negotiations, Japanese lumber interests, represented by the Rioio - Ringio - Jumity Corporation, have obtained from the Soviet Government the largest concession yet granted to Japan. The company, which is capitalized at $150,000,000, has obtained the right to exploit for six years nearly 3,000,000 acres of rich timberlands bordering on the Tariq Sirigid in the Maritime provinces of the Far East. Paper and pulp plants will be built. The same company is seeking further concessions.

Germany Leads in Aviation "The Germans, who have more practical experience of the design, construction and operation of large airships than any other country in the world, are turning to the heavier-than-air craft. They see in the huge seawing airships the successor to the ocean-liner. Their most-famous designers are intent upon plans for larger and larger machines. "It is true that the Germans are building a new Zeppelin, but for most of their long regular air lines they expect to employ airplanes. They have appreciated that long-distance passengers must have room to move about, and that sufficient room can be given them in seapanes or flying boats." Sometimes it is not so pleasant to be rich and of high station. The Prince of Wales is getting abused for going on a public spree in London and eating as a bartender. The main objection from the aggrieved ones was that Eddie's debauch impaired mohairful prestige. The Prince probably feels that he has only one life to give and is willing to give that as quickly as he can for the empire—T. J. O'Flaherty. An Anti-Feminist Descants Love is the fixed, unchangingable aspiration of woman. Love is the glowing sun of her heaven—not love in its vulgar and sexual form of physical attraction, but as conceived by woman, having some one to think of and who thinks of her, some one to devote herself to and who devotes himself to her, as in the case of a mother and her child. Let woman make this her aim, and it will appease her longings better than freedom, independence, the franchise, wealth, power or glory—Gina Ferrero. The Air Is the World's Bat One flying machine costing from five, to fifteen thousand dollars, could easily destroy a fifty-million-dollar battleship. The next war will be decided in the air, not on the ground or the surface of the ocean. Constellation guns are child's play. A cheap battleplane could fly above them and put out of business a whole line of them. A few flying machines, dropping high explosive bombs and poison gases, could immediately demoralize and soon destroy a great city, inflicting and killing half or more of its inhabitants. Flying machines, enough to defend a modern city world, cost a great deal less than the fire insurance on such a city. The air is the world's battlefield today. N. Y. American.

When Beau Nash was in his prime at Bath, England, he was one evening a member of a group listening to a naval captain's account of some phenomenon he had seen at sea, says the Detroit News. Beau smiled and the narrator, notting it, asked if he did not believe him. "Did you see it?" Nash asked. "Yes, I did," replied the captain tartly. "Well, if you saw it, I will-believe it," said Nash. "But I would not if I had seen it myself." Not long afterward Nash was telling of a hunting experience and the captain gave a grunt of disbelief. "Captain, you will not believe this?" said Nash. "Why, yes, I will, Nash, to oblige you," came the retort. "But I would not believe such another lie, for any other man upon the face of the earth."

T. De Meen, assistant international organizer, has been of the greatest value to the Universal Negro Improvement Association in this city. On Sunday afternoon, December 26, Liberty Hall, 11th and Broadway streets, was the scene of the most thrilling, impressive, and important events in the history of the Universal Improvement Association in this city, when the assistant international organizer, Madam M.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 29, 1927 To All Divisions and Chapters We are calling upon you as members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to see to it that your secretaries and presidents make their proper monthly reports to this office. Many secretaries have neglected to do this and letters sent to them from this office have failed to bring response. We are therefore taking this means to urge the members to insist that these reports be made from now on or elect officers who will make them. That your interests may be protected it is absolutely necessary for us to have these reports each month. You pay in your dues and expect the Parent Body to receive that which is due them. Your Constitution instructs these secretaries what they should do, but many of them have failed to do their duty and your interest as members suffers thereby. This is imperative and if we are to have success it must be done. Yours for better things in 1927, with "forward" the watchword, we are. Fraternally yours, UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. W.

Spanish Section SECCIÓN EN ESPAÑOL Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra 54-56 Ocate, Calle 135, Ciudad de Nueva York, N. Y. PROF. M. A. FIQUERO, Editor Mos. sorprende, sobremanera- la opinión de un redactor, al mafíster tar que en el exito, 6 en el trazado los hombres solo son hombres y que el color de su piel es un accidente y no un castigo impuesto. Hemos balancado cuidadosamente el peso de tales manifacientes, y no llegamos a compreender como una persona a cargo de la redacción de un periódico puede exponer tal aterciel. Qierva el informarnos que el Creador hizo cuatrocientos millones de acidentes? plicando el combustible a Ja_llama destructora—El Egoisimo de las naciones predominantes nos obliga a darnos cuenta de nuestra condición—El descalabrio universal y la actitud de nuestra organización—La fuerza considerada como el unico medio para la solución de los problemas existentes. Aun hemos oído decir al hombre blanco o al amarillo, que la palidez de su rostro es accidental. Si emhargo un *intellectual* en este país opina que su *U* incurrir en un error, al asignar distinto pimenta a la humanidad. Antes del adyeminiento de esta organización, nutchos creyeron haherallagado colmo de su ambicion con el liso de preparaciones para blanquear la piel y hacer crecer el cabelov. Pero el Hon. Marcus Garvey emprendió una campaña en contra de las ignoranzas, haciendo compreender a su raza que la textura del cabello y la pigmentación de la piel obra de la Naturalza, poniendo al ser humano er condicion de resistir los rigores de los cuatro puntos del globo. Conciudadanos de la raza: Las naciones predominantes aplican de nueva el combustible a la llama destructora. Toda la familia humana esta pasando por un proceso de enagenación mental. El hombre ha perdido practicamente su razon, y ahora estamos en una era de ruina y destrucción, que extinguisca todos los esfuerzos hechos por la humanidad en las cinco centurias esy pasadas. Todo esto ha sido causado por el egoismo de poder de parte de ctertas razas y naciones. Dondequiera que se fije la vista, doquiera dirijamos nuestros pasos nos ponemos en conatoc con la influencia malsana de una raza en contra de otra raza, de una nación en contra de otra nación, y es mas que aparente que la, verdad, la justicia, el amor y la misericordia han partido para siempre, y todo cuanto resta no es nada más que un reino de egoismo, sagacidad y astucia, que finalmente traerán descalabros y la ruina de nuestra civilización. y la ruina de nuestra civilización. En toda esta terrible batahola, los cuatrocientos millones de nuestro elemento estan llamados a desempeniar su papel. Es mas que natural que nosotros nos hagamos cargo del espíritu de la era presente, y aunque es un pensamiento mas que peligroso, estamos situados de tal manera que no podemos hacer nada mejor sino enfrentarnos con los otros en el mismo plano. y defender nuestra actitud con las mismas armas y con igual resolución. Nuestra raza es bendita por su condición física, y es la mejor preparada para vivir el enlitante mas rico del mundo—Aficia. Si no hubiera poseido una calidad tal, ya la raza opuesta hubiera convertido dicho contiene en un país de blancos; es decir, los natives hubieran sido externinados como lo fueron los pies rejas en este contiene. Pero la Naturalza lo dispuso de tal manheza, que el blanco no puede soportar el calor tropical en Africa, mientras que el negro es inmune a ese rigor, gracas a lo rígado de su pelo, lo cual permite librerme el paso del aire y la espura de su craneo proteje su masa encofalica. Una parte del mundo esta determinada a desaquilbar y poner-fuera de combate a la otra parte, una raza esta determinada a destruir a la otra por-su propia existencia, por su propio agosimo; y dehido a esta competencia tan rigida, para adquirir un sitio en la vida, nosotros no podemos hacer otra cosa sino reunir nuestras fuerzas bajo nuestra propia dirección; y librarnos del desbarajuste y ruina que amenaza continuamente a nuestra raza. La Asosiación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raze Negra se levanta y se manifiesta en términos inequivocos, en defensa de nuestro propio grupo y en lenguaje con vívencente y lógico llama a todos y cata uno de los miembros de la raza, para que se provean con las mejores armas de combate y esten listos para la lucha. No es de ninguna utilidad el hablar o tratar de zanjar esta cuestión humana con oraciones y prédicas. Es una cuestión que solamente puede-arreglarse por la fuerza. Esta es la única argumentación que las razas y las nacones entienden en este siglo veinte. Si por el contrario, los nativos del Africa hubieran sidiantos y con pelo sedoso, junta hubierabo podido resistir el calor de su sol tropical. Por consiguiendo, el redactor, de quien haeços referencia, no esta en lo cierto cuando dice que el color es un accidente. Opinamos, que el pigmento de la piel la protección del ser humano, en contra de los rigores del elemento. Inglaterra habla con la fuerza, Francia habla con la fuerza, este país habla con la fuerza, siendo esto su lenguaje predilecto al presente. Y las razas 6 los pueblos que no puedan presentar al mundo fuerzas organizadas, seran naturalmente arrastrados por el vaínen del oleaje que desarrolla este proceso de presión racial. Inglaterra y Faícia estan hoy mas que nunca determinadas a explotar y subyugar sus cuidadanos y subditos de tez oscura, haciéndo de ello su mejor profesión. Un médico de esta cuidad no opinado recientemente que los nijos de nuestra raza estaban, en ciertas estaciones del alto, expuestos a contraer mas enfermedades que los demas, por el hecho de que los rayos del sol eran muy débiles y no le hacían nigun efecto benefitores, el pime pigmento de su piel requería fuertes rayos de sol. Es sabido ademas que la amplitud de las foxas nasales del negro le permite aspirar mas aire y asimilate gérnnes oftensivos, que a no ser por su condición física, seria más facilmente victima de enfermedades. Es inutil mirar hacia ellas en el sentido de las dos potencias más grandes, porque estas naojones han perdido su alma cristiana. Ingleses y francéses no piensan ya acerca de la humanidad como lo hicieron en épocas preteritas. El principio cristiano se ha desvanecido y solo pesa en la balanza como equilibrio social en estos dos pueblos, todo aquello que se circunscriba y pueda medirse, sustanciarse y materializarse en libras y francos. Dodemos, ver, claramente que ha sido dispuido, por lo que lej natural, que pauses frios no deben ser habitados por el negro, así como también las regiones tropicales no deben ser el hogar del blanco. Es un plan de la Creación para beneficio propio y no un accidente. Lo mas apropiado es que el negro se establezca y edifice au propia sección del glojo, como, lo han hecho las otras razas. Nos encontramos, a la verdad, en el cruce del caminho. La raza negra no debe buscar por más tiempo socorro y cojese de ninguna otra raza; ni mucho menos ayuda politica para sus futuros designtos. Debe mirar por y para si misma. Hemos llegado a la conclusión de recibir solamente desengaños en todas nuestras esperanzas, desengaños en todas nuestras ambiciones, dependiendo como lo hemos hecho siempre de los demás. En este lado del Atlántico se nos ha echado gradualmente fuera de la politéca, y es un sarcasmo nuestra asplración social económica. Dentro de la jurisdicción del imperio británico hemos sido siempre el blanco de puntera de una diplomacia sábria y bien delineada. En Franota hemos sido los bobalicones de una administración derrochadora, que espera siempre obtener pingues beneficios, usando la ignorancia de aquellos que son engañados. Cómo, de que manera-podemos depender de otros? Si lo hacemos, así noIntentamos sino nuestra ruina presente y futura, tal como ha sucedido en el pasado. No es para tanto El representante F. La Guardia informo al congreso, que seenta y cincio políticas de esta ciudad podian protejar toda la propiedad perteneciente a los norteamericanos en la república de Nicaragua. Por otra parte, el señador Boraii se dispeñe atar² los procedimientos seguidos, sobre dicha cuestión por la administración, en el regimen del actual presidenta de la nación. Los días de la esclavitud no han pasado. Este abominable estado de abyeción es una amenaza para toda raza, pueblo o nación. que permanezca debil y reuse hacer una reconcentración de sus fuerzas para su protección. La esclavitud no tiene ni hora. Esta se presenta immediatamente que los pueblos fuertes desean oprimir é imponer su voluntad sobre los pueblos débiles. Nadie poda decirnos eual sera nuestra condición en el manana; si esclavos o no esclavos, siempre que no marchemos haela adelante hasta adquirir nuestra fortaleza y poder racial y nuestra política nacional independiente. Reunámosno al amparo del Rojo, Negro y Verde, emblemas de la redención africana. Unámosno con toda la fuerza de nuestra convicción, tal como lo hace el inglés defendiendo su insignia patriotica; tal como lo hace el frances con su enseña tricolor; tal como lo hace el norteamericano en defensa de sus franjas y estrellas. Que esto sea para nosotros una visión de gran altruismo; que sea, pues, una visión que encarne nuestras más legítimas ambiciones; y nos insírete de valor más santificado para. Hay siempre dos enemigos con los cuales los individuos y las organizaciones tienen que luchar. El libro sagrado los califica de este modo: el enemigo de adentro y el enemigo de afuera. Los peores enemigos del hombre son aquellos que se amparan bajo su minuto techo, siendo la inferencia logística de que el hombre tiene enemigos adentro, también tendra enemigos a fuera, que cooperan mutualmente, para llevar a cabo sus malvados propositos. Muchas de las publicaciones de nuestra raza, han estado aconsejado a los miembros de esta organización que suspendan la lucha entre si. La parte cinsera de esos consejos es diga de consideración. Realmente hemos llevado la lucha a un extremo tal, que hemos armado al enemigo de afuera con el diago que ha de castigarnos. Es muy grande cuando tienen que realizar, para que continue esta lucha infundada, entre nuestro elemento. Los enemigos de afuera son una talla, no seria posible su derota, a menos que no exista paz entre nosotros y estenos imunos con el objeto de promover y protejar los intereses de nuestra organización. En la ciudad de Washington se considera el modo de interesar a los miembros del congreso que posean opiniones secas con el objeto de que acepten el levant a cabo un pbicicito nacional en el asunto de la prohibición de licores alcoholicos. De todas las proposiciones presentadas por la sección humedel del congreso, los jefes del movimiento humedo-conserante aretú el último como el de más premas para resolver de una vez el problema que durante varias sessions en la agitado considerablemente ambas camaras hasta el punto que otros asuntos de importancia indiscutible para el pais han se delegados para seguir-con una discutión sobre la prohibición de licores, discussion que no ha conseguido ninguna ganancia bien para un lado o para otro. Los representantes y senadores segan hos sindio notificados por los jefes del movimiento humedo que el congreso no puede resolver definitivamente la controversia sin poser una expresión directa de la opinión del pueblo, quien, según dices los humedos nunca han tenido una oportunidad para expresar sus sentimientos sobre la prohibición de licoses alcoholicos ni antes ni desde que la emienda decima octava fue ratificada. El eliminar este sujeto del campo de la política nacional seria muy bienvenido por los jefes principales de los dos partidos políticos más importantes, de la unión, pero al mismo tiempo, estos jefes políticos no creem que ello puede ser llevado a cabo por medio de plebiscitos individuales entre, los estados, parecidos a la que se llevaron a cabo en la última elección general, basado esta opinión en las diferentes formas en que el problema seria presentado a los constituyentes. El senador Edge, republicano del estado de Nueva Jersey, jefe de los humedos del Senado, ha formulado dos preguntas para ser sonidas al electores y cuyas preguntas仓台 siendo consideradas y estadidas por un ciéter número de los senadores acos. Las preguntas son: Débse enmeneral el Congreso la ley nacional de la prohibición de licores de modo que se permita la fabricación, venta, transportación y posición de bebidas que contengan una cantidad tan grande de alcohol como sea legal bajo la Constitución considerando que dicha enmendra no causará interferencia a los poderes constitucionales de los estados por al solos para hacer sus leyes tal como ellos consideren. aptipados en lo que se refiere a los licores intexantes? Débe se sometida ne nuevo, los estudios de la unión com expone la constitución, para que sea por elos consideradas la emienda decima occlava con cambios legales que lagan permisible la fabricación y venta de los libros intoxicantes al dicha fabricación y venta esta permitida por las leyes de los respectivos estados, dicha-emmlida constitucional, destinada a aumentar la prohíbition sobre el consumo de, las bebidas, intolerantes en los jugarros donde son obtenidas y proveer en dicha emmlida a una vigilancia efectiva del gobierno sobre la yenta y distribution? At Grave of Booker I. Washington Those were the stories circulated years ago. When the IHOQUOI2 INDIAI man got sick of women what did they do to get better?

While the Greeks Gave Eldest Daughter Half of Family Fortune The old Germans never talked about a dowry in their laws. The bride was bought for, she was the property of the father from whom the bridegroom had to buy her. The bridegroom paid for the bride by a number of cattle and also took care of the troublesan. This ancient custom remained until the beginning of the Middle Ages, says Die Woche, Berlin. It seems more barbaric at a first glance than it really was. The women of the Germanic and related races enjoyed a great deal of real esteem in comparison to women of other races. The apparently cruel custom excluded women from having any claims, upon the inheritance from their parents, but, on the other hand, they were no well taken care of that it never was possible that a widow or a wife of whom her husband had grown tired could be exposed to misery. Legally it was a fact that the piece which the bridegroom paid was property of the father, but morally this money was a gift which the father returned to the bride, at least after his death. It remained her personal property, which often was important enough, to protect her against poverty. Dummarled women who had no right on the paternal inheritance had to be taken care of by their brothers of other heirs of the father. The idea of the dowry was developed rather early. In dress the oldest daughter received half of the paternal fortune for a dowry, even if she had 10 younger sisters. —That it was sometimes profitable to marry the daughter of a simple craftsman becomes evident when one reads that a shoemaker in the fifteenth century gave each of his six daughters 600 gold-folded, much gold and silverware and such a beautiful treasure and furniture that she could entertain princess. Each daughter, badger, was allowed to invite 85 persons for her wedding ginner. In Italy it was the custom for a father to plant 1,000 poplar trees when a daughter was born and these trees with the land between them wore the dowry of his daughter. The dowry of Russian women used to consist of "douls"—that is, wives whom her father gave her. During the sixteenth century, when the poverty of people in intellectual work became great in Germany, a clerksman had to sell the golden necklace of his wife in order to give his daughter a trousseau.

Genghis Khan, the Asiatic Conqueror, Slaughtered People and Destroyed Property as a Blind Furist Would BY DR. FRANK CRANE Have you ever heard of the man who ruled over the greatest empire in the world in all time? He reigned seven hundred years ago and he arrested the progress of the world as one might stop the hands of a clock. He was born in a nomad tribe but steadily rose until he became ruler of the largest number of people over unruly territories. He was the most feared of man. He was Genghis Khan, who ruled half the world and terrorized the other half. The people of Cathay called him the Perfect Warrior. The Knight of Central Asia spoke of him as 'the Mighty Manslayer. The Mohammadins called him the Securia of God. Others called him Master of Themes and Crownes. His birth name was Tempuin, and he is known to us as Gonghsi Khan. He made mighty wars. Instead of warring with kingdoms he annihilated countries. He not only captured cities, but often obliterated them so that the greed grew over their allies. Rivers were diverted from their courses, and when he had passed wolves and ravens ranged over once ferrande. The human lives he took stagger the imagination. The slain in the World War would not measure a third of it. Whole civilizations were consumed by him. The survivors of nations lived after his passing in the shadow of the tomb. Harola Lamb in the magazine "Asia" gives an excellent history of him and calls to our recollection this most dreaded of all monarchs. Toger Bacon said that indubitably his subjects were soldiers of Antichrist, and Frederick II of Germany wrote Henry III of England that they looted the monastery of Jerusalem to tribal of Jesus. The Pope called the Council of Lyons—narly as a means of attemning the Mongol conquests. Towe was nothing supernatural about Genghile Khan, but he was simply an example of a successful warrior. He did no good in the world, but is an illustration of the amount of harm a cruel and wicked man can do. The above facts are condensed from the article by Mr. Lamb in the magazine referred to.

Egypt Bars German for Taking. Tragicous Dust of Egyptian Military GARIO; Jan. 21. According to a native papy, the Egyptian govern- ment destroyed the great granite of the temple, the tomb of the G- erman Ecryptologist, the resum- exations at Tel-el-Amarn on the ground, that he smuggled from this country before the war the bust of the Egyptian Queen Nestert, one of the most pre- cious rites of Ecryptology. He discovered the bust of Telel-Amarra. It is now being exhibited at the Berlin Museum; where its that appearance caused a sensation at the time. It will be remembered that the bust was not exposed in the museum till after the signing of the Versailles Treaty, thus enforcing its retention in France. The Egyptian government now states that Dr. Burghardt will not be allowed to excavate till the bust is returned to Egypt.

BROWNE To the Editor of The Negro World: At Although the Negro was freed from slavery nearly a century ago, he has failed to ride himself of the idea that he is inferior to the white man. In 1900, he achieved a high degree of achievement, a high literacy, economic and other lines. The Negro continues to retain a feeling of inferiority. The wide awake Negro of the present day is examining himself and his race thoroughly. He's learning that the reason Negroes must continue to take second place and to feel inferior is because they have not done enough to build up the race economically. Respectfully, Mr. Garvey began many years ago, to point out to the members of his race their weakest points and to preach the doctrine of racial unity in NEGRO EXPOSITION ISSUE Journal of Progress Outlines Event Here in June The first issue of the Journal of Progress, the official magazine of the National Negro Exposition, which will be held in New York City from June 1 to Oct. 1 of this year has been released by the exposition authorities at No. 684, denomination of the purpose of the expoion after, deeling mainly with the problems and industries of New York.

Other races, knowing, fully what the success of such an industry means, doing all in their power to suppress the movement which is the inspiration of the progressive Negro. The Negro, who, has not awakened to the fact that he must fight for his racial rights is lying in an age where fighting is the soo that an another group may oppress is his own worst enemy. CON. ADMIT. HOWITT Negro Newspapers Lift Race Outlook To the best of our Negro World, Nine out of ten Negro read news papers, books and other literature from the pan of the white man three-hundred and sixty-five days in the year, morning noon and night. Negroes buy luggage of news papers, often without them, except something which is determinative to the race. Ten many of those same people will not buy a copy of a Negro newspaper. I am wondering how long our people can Negroes over expect to be respected by other people when they continue to buy and read in large quantities the white man's literature which many times only degrades them and refuse to buy their own papers sufficient to give news of the better type? It is a stupete thing to me that many of our so-called leaders are so blind to the attitude of the white man, who only presents the Negro to the people. These people smile and try to believe that, the white man is giving us a "square deal." God bless the N. U. I. A., which is teaching the Negro to see his racial life as it is. J. W. WILLIAMSON.
