The Negro World

The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro 400,000,000 NEGROES Pass Another Milestone on the Road of Shame Two years ago—on February 7, 1925—the Hon. Marcus Garvey, greatest living Negro, founder and president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was handcuffed to two white men and rushed to Atlanta penitentiary, Georgia, to serve a term of five years' imprisonment for "using the United States mails to defraud." There he still languishes, wasting his precious days, his only "crime," as Negroes and the fairminded of the universe see it, being the espousal of the cause of the Negro race in modern and manly fashion. It is the solemn duty of Negroes everywhere, and especially in these United States, to make their voices heard in protest throughout the world against this grievous wrong. Every day longer spent by this great patriot and statesman behind prison walls sees the forging of another link in the chain which would bind the Negro race irrevocably to a condition of servitude: Sons and daughters of Africa, at home and abroad, it is you who must rescue your leader from the clutches of the octopus of oppression. Thereby you will rescue yourselves. Protest time is not all spent. Raise your voices now: Let your daily, unceasing cry be, "MARCUS GARVEY MUST BE RELEASED!" The conscience of the white world is not dead. WASHINGTON, D. C., WILL HEED. 2ND ANNIVERSARY OF GARVEY'S EXILE STIRS NEGROES Paterson, N. J., Policemen, Scared or Callous, Surround Retreat of Wanted Negro and Shoot Him to Death—Aggression Alleged The following report of the killing of a Negro in Paterson, N. J., who was wanted by the police, is called from the New York times PATTERSON, N. J. Feb. 6 Arthur Bunn, in 40-year-old Negro, known as "Catfish" Bunn, was shot and killed today by police, who besieged him in an old house at 34 Lennon street Bunn, who was wanted for shooting Mrs. Lillian Davidge, a Narcissus in Mahwah, N. J., at Thursday, had boasted that he would never be taken alive. He tried to shoot his way to freedom today, but a bullet fired at random jersey num. in the house. Bunn, who was a founder, worker, had boarded at the home of Mrs Davis for three years. He did not like her husband and he had felt quite too to tell his landlord us much the police said. After Davis had left for work last Thursday Bunn and Mrs Davis got into an argument. Neighbors heard angry voices, then the report of a pistol. Whor the police arrived Mrs Davis lay on the floor boulden wounded Bunn had disappeared. The alarm went to police stations throughout the state. A few minutes after midnight this morning a mysterious telephone call informed detectives at Peterson Headquarters that if they would go to 54 Bonsou street they would find some one they were looking for. Detectives John Herman and Jame Brooks of the Narcotic Sound and Reserve Officer Edward Moss went to the place The two detect...a went to the rear of the building. Moore watched the front door. He had then, cautiously pushed open the rear door, which was unlocked, and held three shots to the darkness. Night in an inner door went out and the policemen heard some one moving about. He went to the patrol room, placed on a chair, and diving into the front door. Bunny pressed the button on the threshold, perculed, fired a shot, then recalled to the patrol room, some time before. Moore returned for five, disclosing a stream of bullets through the wooden panel of the door. Two more shots rang out inside the house. The police decided to wait for the Negro to make the next move. The stood outside the building, occasionally firing through a door or window and calling to the fugitive to surrender. Minutes passed, but there was no further activity on the port of the Negro. At length the detective entered With flashlights they made out the form of Bumu promiscuous on the floor. An ambulance from Paterson General Hospital was called but Bumu was dead with a bullet in the temple. His plait lay on the floor near by. All the cartridges had been discharged. Four Billions in Gems Owned in This Country There are in the United States $4,000,000 worth of diamonds that is worth $40 worth for every man woman and child in the country. More than 10,000,000 carats of diamonds are owned by Americans. Angling has the greatest per capita diamond wealth in the world, and probably in all histories. A survey was recently completed by the National dealers' Association covering more than 120 generations. The figures are based on the imputation of diamonds into the United States since 1967.

W. I. Interracial Commission Incensed-at Failure To Indict Lynchers ALANTA, Ga. Jan 31 The Executive Committee of the Commission on Interagency Cooperation, in called session at the Henry Grady Hearst Yesterday, adopted resolutions strongly affirming the recent statement of Governor John G. Richards, of South Carolina, relative to the Alker Lynchings and calling upon the people of South Carolina to support the Governor in his expressed determination in bringing the perpetrators to Justice within his power. The resolutions call attention also to the Lynchings record for 1985 and to the fact that in only one of the thirty cases reported have there been any conventions, and appeal to the American people to put an end to these conditions. The statement of the Committee follows. We, the Executive Committee of the Commission on Intervial Cooperation, have noted with keen appreciation the vigorous statement of Governor John G. Richards of South Carolina, referred to the Alken hearings, and especially his expressed determination to bring the preparators to justice, if within his power. We call upon the people of South Carolina to support Governor Richards to the full in this lucid purpose. We would point out also the fact that though thirty lynchings were reported in the United States in 1926 in only one have any conditions been secured, while in most cases not even an arrest has been made. Such conditions constitute a grave judgment of our legal processes, our civilization, and our Christian professions, which we as a people cannot afford longer to endure. We therefore appeal to the justice of the guilty and the conscience of America, and particularly of our own Southland, to put an end to these conditions once for all. Lynchings may be the act of small and responsible groups, but the persistent failure to punish and convict the perpetrators lays the guilt upon us all." The resolutions were unanimously adopted by the Executive Committee. By EUGENE CHEN, Foreign Minister of Chinese Nationalists I have held several conferences with Britain's diplomatic agent and have come to the conclusion that, although England's representative is honest and sincere, the British Foreign Office is utilizing these conferences to gain time to consummate her military plans. Although Britain is represented in the foreign press as being sympathetically melded to our demands, I have not had one definite authoritative proposal made to her accredited political agent. While Britain is carrying on an intensive newspaper campaign through the news sources exclusively controlled by her to distract the events that are going on in China, her Foreign Office is making complimentary declarations to the world, which we have learned to distract. "Nb Compromiso" Britain's foreign policy toward China is being dictated by a group of Englishmen concession holders. Britain may attempt to hold these concessions and succeed in remaining in our cities a little while longer, but all her might cannot make us trade with her. I have never pleaded China to any "compromise agreement" with Great Britain or any other nation. China demands the unconditional surrender of all the foreign concessions and the unconditional repudiation of all the unequal treaties. Any negotiations carried on between myself and foreign governments will have to be based not on what the Foreign Powers will concede to us but on how much we shall concede to them. Over a hundred years of experience under the foreign yoke has taught us that neither England nor any other foreign power will ever voluntarily give back to us what ours We no longer care for the generosity or the sympathy of the foreigner China has selected the method—the method of force. We shall dislodge Britain and every other foreign power from every concession, by force of arms. We need the foreigner, not as our masters, but as our counsels, to trade with us. The course of the Nationalist development is supported by millions of unwelcome Chinese. It has always been the stock in trade of the foreign governments, whenever negotiations with us required a critical point to then the world with stories of violence. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1927 NORTH AFRICA'S RICH LAND BONE OF CONTENTION Robber Powers State Their Excuses for Aggression in North Africa—Bribe to Abd-eL-Krim MADRID, Feb. 3 — The semi-official newspaper La Nacion today attacked the French newspapers for their recent campaign regarding Tangier La Nacion, indignantly duelled the accusations of the French newspapers that Spajn offered Abd-el-Krim, exiled Moroccan leader, millions of presets for financing his war against the French forces in Morocco. The paper also, denied the charge that Prime De Kivara was acting as a tool of Premier Mussolini, carrying out the latter's wishes in ropeoping the Tangier question. All Want Africa The question of who shall own north Africa, with its valuable grain lands, within easy colonizing distance of all Mediterranean European countries and its valuable iron ore mines, is a vexed one. It was one of the causes of the world war France claims it on account of the great Napoleon's exploits in Egypt, and the little Napoleon's conquest of Algeria. Spain claims it because of nearness and ancient relationships through the Moors. Massoontin frankly states one of his predestined tasks to be the re-establishment of the empire of the Caesars, which included all North Africa, Egypt and France and Spain as well. There have been frequent intrigues, and charges of conspiracy among the Latin nations who colonize in Africa. Dislodge Foreigners Sary, Chen Proclaims Foreign Powers Will Con- cide Will Concode to them list Leader Bors in B. W. II that a repetition of such murderous practices, firing indiscriminately upon peaceful demonstrators and parade, would bring about grave consequences. Our Nationalist Government is abso- bately able to protect the foreign nationals. The panic-striken rush of foreigners to ports is caused by the malicious antigations and fabricated stories of our enemies. Foreign merchants have created a situation of their own making in order to force their governments to send expeditions to China. I challenge anyone to name one instance when a foreign national has been either abused or his property seized unlawfully. Broad Challenge We shall not allow the British Foreign Office to try to inaction with profiles of good will and generosity towards us, while she is gathering a battle fleet in Chinese waters and concentrating fighting divisions at Shanghai. If there is to be blunted in Shanghai, the responsibilities will rest on Britain's shoulders. China has made up her mind to rid herself of foreign powers and will not be invaded by Britain or any other foreign power's hypothetical protection of unity and friendship. My country men realize that the foreigners are in our soldier by virtue of might, and they can only dislodge them by the sword. Chen Born in B. W.

Texas Attorney-General Backs Negro Ban From State Primaries WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. - The right to exclude Negroes from participating in Democratic primaries in Texas was asserted by Attorney General Pollard that state in a belief filled today in the Supremo Court. In a case brought by A-Nixon. Contending that primaries are not elections within the meaning of the Federal Constitution, the brief asserted that the right to inject one's self into the nominating primary of a political party is not a right which can be enforced in the Federal courts.

LIBERALS CAPTURE NICARAGUA CITY U.S. 'Admiral States Marines Will Not Aid Either Faction Ready to Act-as Mediator MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Feb. 6.—Liberal forces have captured Chinandega, about sixty miles northwest of Mangua. A scout, aviator, brought this report back to the capital tonight. He said the city was in flames. Chinandega has a population of 10,000 and was at one time the temporary capital of the three united republics of Nicaragua, Honduras and Salvador. Among the buildings destroyed in the captured city was the Commandant's house. Telegraphic communication is cut off and train service has been held up by guards. The Liberals carried out an attack early this morning near Chichigalpa and in Chinandega. City, which continued throughout the day, Reports estimated the Liberals at 1,000, led by Gen. Parajon. Gen Vilquez, commander of the Conservatives, reported today to President Dilaz he was surrounded the Liberals with 4,000 men. Lee Mason, in charge of the Conservative aviators, and William Brooks in another plane flew over the fighting area during training. It was Brooks who reported that the Liberals had occupied Chinchong. Conservative reinforcements have been sent forward and the fighting continued fiercely. Barbed wire entanglements are being employed by both sides and cactus plants are piled up to offer obstacles to the attacking forces. Gen Zapata, one of the Liberal leaders who was captured a few days ago, is now in Maguana. He is to have a military trial soon. Says Marines Aid Neither Faction There BALBOA, Panama! Feb 6.—Rear Admiral Latimer, in command of the United States naval forces in Nicaragua, waters, declares that the United States is not engaging in any operations against either faction in Nicaragua. “There has been no change in the position of the American forces,” he said today, “and none is contemplated.” Admiral Latimer arrived at Balboa from Gorinte aboard the Rochester. The Rochester will undergo repatriation preparatory to sailing for the United States; and the Admiral will transfer his flag to another ship. The Admiral’s remarks had reference in Dr Juan Sacasas assertion that the Liberals would control Nicaragua if the American forces retained from operations against them. The recent battle at Rivas was an absolute Conservative victory, in the opinion of Admiral Latimer, who added that the Liberals were completely routed. Aside from the Rivas engagement he had nothing to report as, he explained there had been no other fighting any where. He refused to make pleiades for the future, but was ready to act as mediator.

LIBERTY HALL THOUSANDS REDEDICATE THEMSELVES TO THE PRINCIPLES AND IDEALS OF GARVEYISM ON SECOND ANNIVERSARY OF GARVEY'S IMPRISONMENT EXCERPT FROM MARCUS GARVEY'S FIRST MESSAGE TO THE NEGRO RACE FROM ATLANTA PENITENTIARY "If I die in Atlanta my work shall then only begin, but I shall live, in the physical or spiritual, to see the day of Africa's glory. When I am dead, wrap the mantle of the Red, Black and Green around me, for in the new life I shall rise with God's grace and blessing to lead the millions up the heights of triumph with the colors that you well know. Look for me in the whirlwind or the storm, look for me all around you, for, with God's grace, I shall come and bring with me countless millions of black slaves who have died in America and the West Indies and the millions in Africa to aid you in the fight for Liberty, Freedom and Life. "The civilization of today is gone drunk and crazy with its power, and by such it seeks through injustice, fraud, and lies to crush the unfortunate. But if I am apparently crushed by the system of influence and misdirected power, my cause shall rise again to plague the conscience of the corrupt. For this I am satisfied, and for you, I repeat, I am glad to suffer and even die." HEAVY FIGHTING IN PORTUGUESE REVOLT REPORTED Rebels and Loyal Troops Battling on River at Oporto, Correspondent of London Paper Says LONDON, Feb. 6.—Heavy fighting in Oporto, Portugal, is described in dispatches from the Vigo (Spain) correspondent of "The Daily Times." The insurgent ha says, completely contested the north bank of the Duro River, the extremum troops, the southern bank, the government, continuous, with considerable artillery engagement, and both sides are concentrating for a decisive action. The 8th Cavalry Regiment made a determined attempt Saturday (Saturday) to force a passage of the Dom Luz Bridge into the revolutionary camp, but was stopped by machine gun fire and captured. The casualties have been numerous, and several buildings have been damaged by gun fire. The British merchants have requested the ambassador at Lisbon to have a warship sent to protect their interests. It is difficult, the correspondent adds, to gauge the full extent of the revolutionary movement, which, headed by General Souza Diaz, was organized a considerable time ago. A revolutionary government has been appointed, headed by military surgeon Dr. Jaime Morac. LISBON. Feb. 6. The insurgents at Oporto are sending emissaries to negotiate their surrender. This announcement was made to-day by the Minister of War, who is in the troubled region directing' the loyal forces. In view of this action the minister says he has postponed the intended bombardment of the rebel position. He will impose unconditional surrender, he adds. The War Minister reports that after preparation were made to dislodge the insurgents at Oporto he gave them until moon today to mourn, falling in which he threatened to bombard the city. On receiving the ultimatum the insurgents sent emissaries to arrange for surrender. The commander of the gunbout bengo, which revolted yesterday and incited the garrison at Tavira to revolt, has abandoned his command. He sent a message to the Minister of Marine, assuming all responsibility for the steps taken. The remaining officers and crew surrendered. Heavy fogs in and around Oporto render the recoiling of positions difficult. Government airplanes, sent out for this purpose were attacked by the insurgent, guns and one of them had a wing damaged. The Uruguayan Consul at Oporto requested the government to allow an armistice, but this was refused, state railway employees are on strike, and the insurgents planned to organize a train aided by the strikers in order to escape from the city, advises received force assert, but the plan was frustrated. President Ugarita, who is also War Minister, reports that despite the strike his force are being joined continually by fresh troops from all parts of the country. Word has reached Lebanon that the Minister of Instruction who was arrested along with the Minister of Commerce by the insurgents, is shown in a place of safety. Red Cross units and other services have done excellent work in rescuing the wounded under fire. Ammunition and provisions are being forcibly to government troops. All areas and most places in the sieged city THE LEADER MUST BE ALLOWED TO ASSERT HIMSELF Marcus Garvey, the Real Leader, Has Forced the Masses to Get the Forward Look and Fall in Line Very few Negroes today are conscious of the qualities in the make-up of a leader. Some seem to think that a leader is a person chosen with absolute powers to rule as president. Some seem to think that a leader must be graduated in all the classics of present-day civilization. No one can deny that much suffering would be avoided if leaders were given absolute power; no one can deny the benefits a cause would derive if its leader could fatbom the environment that sought the destruction of the upholders of that cause; but these are by no means the stamp by which a leader can be tested. Any monkey can, with a system controlled by guns and money, force a people to move against their desire. Any ransal can, by mentalizing, the philosophy of a kant, put forth such epistles of affection to even fool a large group of people for a time. A leader is a person who, without any thought of the power given by any group or the courtesies in vogue in any environment, acting as his or her subconsciousness dictates, brings a suffering mass to a consciousness that their redemption depend on the elevation of that cause. A leader's mind is always absolute—no thought of the sacrifice of self can withhold any energy from the cause he or she espouses. A leader is only mindful of the power given by God through his or her own subconsciousness. A leader is conscious of a cause, and not "educated" to it. With all the qualities some may have of leadership while supporting a cause, there can only be one leader for a cause hence a leader in primarily a product of opportunity. If it is the opportunity of stepping out against a system of exploitation, hypocrisy, graft, barriers of doubt and fear that begins the history of a leader. The history of the sufferings of leaders are the gauge by which they are always worshipped—but only through posterity. Study the history of Jesus Christ and you will find the greatest of all leaders. Search the Negro Race for a leader—look north, look south, look east, look west—there you can find one leader, the Hon Marcus Garvey Crucify him, of so tyrants and traitors. If you can and if you dore. And Negroes shall through posterity worship at the shrine of a "Saint Marcul" who bled and died for the redemption of the Negro Race—Belize Independence.

Toote, Acting President-General, Urges Upon Members a Renewal of Demands for Great Leader's Release WORLD CONFLICT NEAR Says to Ask Negroes to Fight Is "Premature" While Their Man of Destiny Wastes His Precious Days in Prison NEW YORK. Liberty Hall, Sunday Night, Feb. 6. The thousands who assembled here tonight on the occasion of the weekly mass meeting of the New York local were in contemplative mood, for their minds harked back to a morning, two years ago, when the Hon. Marquis Garvey, founder and president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was hustled on board a train and hurried to Atlanta Penitentiary to pay the penalty for having stirred the ambition of the oppressed Negro and aroused in him the desire for nationhood. Hon. Fred A. Toote, acting president-general, occupied the chair and recalled the epochal event to the minds of his hearers. The great leader, he said, was suffering unjustly, and it was time Negroes began asking themselves if they were going to sit down complacently and admit two more years to tell by and find the greatest Negro in the world still behind bars, placed there merely because he had trodden on the corn of those who desired the exploitation of Africa. Strife was brewing in the world today, Mr. Toote observed, and any morning they might awake to find that Negroes are called upon, to shoulder arms to wage battle against other oppressed, but even as "Premature" was the laconic reply made to the application for Marcus Garvey's release a year ago, so the Negroes of the world will send back the answer: "Premature." It was premature for the powers that be to ask Negroes to fight their battles when the man in whom they had the greatest confidence, the "I am near 60. years but I feel as young as I did at 20."

Negroes should on this, the second anniversary of Marcus Garvey's imprisonment, again voice their demands that he be immediately restored to them. Addresses were also delivered by Hon. W. A. Wallace, secretary-general; Hon. F. Levi Lord, Chancellor, and Mr. Charles James, 2nd vice-president of the New York Local. The meeting openel with the usual exercises by the auxiliaries, followed by a short concert program. Two selections were rendered by the Universal Band under Prof. Maddsell, the choir contributed an anthem, and vocal solos were rendered by Mr. A. Reid and Mr. A. Little' Master Richardson entertained with a violin solo. MR. CHARLES JAMES' ADDRESS Mr. Charles James, 2nd vice-president of the New York Local, spoke on the subject, "We shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free," "our hundreds of years," he said, "we as a race of people have been nicknamed 'The Negro.' We are not Negroes, but Ethiopians by name; we are Africans by birthright. But the white man has seen fit to give us any name that he thought would suit us and help to make us slaves instead of real men doing the things that should be done to keep ourselves alive. "For hundreds of years, we have kept in the background of progress because we believed we were really inferior and would not come together in one solid body to get for ourselves our country from which we were torn—our motherland, Africa. The truth has been kept back from us by the so-called dispensers of truth, namely, the white man and other races of people who felt that it was necessary to dominate and exploit us. The truth has never been told. We were not told that we were human beings, we were not told by our spiritual advisers that we, too, resulted, when God said, 'Let us make man in our own image.' We were told that we were monkeys and that there was nothing in common between us and the great human family. For hundreds of years we were told that the Negro came from nowhere and would not get anywhere because he was not a human being, fit to enjoy the rights and privileges of nature, but rather that he should live in savagery and slavery. Marcus Garvoy Camie "But fortunately for this race of ours one morning the star shone in the heavens and a man by the name of Marcus Garvey was born. (Applause.) He was born in the island of Jamaica, a born genius, if you please, who tell the keen spirit of Nature. After he grew to be a man he traveled the seven seas, found out the conditions of Negroes everywhere and arrived at the conclusion that something must be done to bring about a contraternity of this race of ours. Marcus Garvey assumed the leadership, not of West Indian Negroes, not of American Negroes, not of South and Central American Negroes, but he assumed the leadership of 400,000,000 Negroes of the world. (Applause.) One day in 1920 the call went out to the four corners of the earth telling the men and women of the race to come together in one solid body between these four walls of Liberty Hall and elect a leader to lead them back to their motherland. Then the truth was told. Marcus Garvey, the elected leader, asked Negroes to clean their hearts, to take out those, things which meant their degradation, to take out those things which meant eternal Apply Johnson's Belladonna Plaster For Quick Sure Relief Pain—resulting from almost any usual cause—can be made to vanish quickly, by applying a Johnson's Belladonna Plaster over the affected part. You can buy this plaster at any drug store. Why suffer terrible agony, when such quick, effective and lasting relief is afforded by the simple act of putting on a Johnson's Belladonna Plaster? The beneficial effects of belladonna plaster in quieting pain, diminishing muscular tension, conduction and contraction—and attaching continuous warmth, support and comfort as long as the plaster remains on, the body—have the official recognition of pharmacists throughout the world. Forty years ago Johnson & Johnson were pioneers in making improved belladonna plaster, and took Johnson's Belladonna Plaster's rank first in the number sold and used all over the world. The marvellous results obtained are duo solely to the standard of highest quality. Every plaster you buy bearing the Johnson & Johnson name carries full-strength medication in so soluble form that it will be quickly absorbed and not affected parts, bring blessed relief from pain in a miraculously short time.

Doora Wide Onah "And here we have the Universal Negro Improvement Association with its doors wide open, backing men and women of the race, wherever domiciled, to its ranks, saying, 'we are the most progressive group, we desire a Negro government, we desire an African republic upon which 'the sun will never set; cone and let us build.' But certain Negroes who can see no further than what concerns their immediate needs, Negroes opposed to the truth, schemed and planted against Marcus Garvey, and now he is not doing active work among us. But the improvement of Marcus Garvey did not put us out of existence. Marcus Garvey was rushed to Atlanta, but the spirit of Garvey still romps at large. It permeates every Liberty Hall throughout the world, and today Negroes are as determined as over to work for an Africa redeemed. Different Ideas and Culture "We are all here, my friends, but while we are here, as in the case of all great organizations, dissensions will be. These are things that cannot easily be blotted out, because we all have our different ideas. This race of ours was not in Africa where it originated. We were taken to the West Indian islands and there we imbbed the Englishman's culture; we were scattered in the United States of America and there learnt the American's culture; we were taken to the Spanish main and those learnt the Spanish's culture. And so we are a group of people with widely different ideas, very difficult of being welded together for the common good. But those ideas must be unified, we must get rid of many of them, because instead of improving our condition they are making us more and more slaves. "The white man is not going to respect us when we are disorganized; he is not going to respect us when we are not in a position to command his respect, he is not going to respect us when we are not speaking in the voice we should speak to him. There is China today telling the white man, 'You said at one time when we had our internal dissensions that we were not united; you said at one time that we were sleeping; but we are telling you today that we have awakened; that we have come together for the good of China and that we will drive every man who would oppress and exploit Chinese out of China.' And, Negroes must do the same. We will have to get together and speak to the other races in the language they will lie down and respect. Speaking in a Soft Voice "But it is indeed sad to find Negroes still speaking to the white man in a soft and low voice. He is yet telling the white man, 'we do not intend yet to shake off this voke of oppression; we still intend to rely on your good-will; we still intend to call you masseboe, we still intend to live in your country—we are afraid to go away from here because you tell me that America's my home) because you tell me I am an American citizen and I must be satisfied; I have not yet come to the conclusion that it is not the truth; I have not yet realized that it is all hypocrisy; I am still waiting upon you to lead me back to Africa; I do not intend yet to follow Negro leadership; I do not intend to place my confidence in anybody; I still intend to drag down every Negro that wants to rise or wants to assist me to rise; I still intend to call every Negro every name except a child of God; I still intend to be a slave, I still intend to be a servant in your cities. Mr. white man, will you please help me to be a good servant? That is the voice in which the Negro is speaking to the white man. Put Away Pottiness "But, my friends, Marcus Garvey, through the broad doctrines of the Universal Negro Improvement," Association, is saying to Negroes. Put away your patty ideas, cease ridiculing and harassing one another, and let us come together; let us seek after the truth and yet we become free indeed. For it is no use merely saying we are tired of the domination of others, when we of ourselves refuse to accept Negro leadership, when we refuse to place confidence in ourselves. As long as we as a race sit and wrangle, so long will the white man stay in Africa and feast on the fat of the land—our land. "Let us all this evening feel the thrill and power of this movement. Let us believe in One God. One Alm. One God. Let us believe in the gospel of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. And if we do that, it will not be long before the Universal Negro Improvement Association under the leadership of the Hon. Marcus Garvey shall lead us on to victory and we shall plant the colors, the Red, the Black and the Green, in an African republic upon which the sun shall never set. (Applause.) HON. F. A. TOOTE'S ADDRESS HON. F. A. Toote, acting president-general, spoke as follows: "Two you have passed since our great leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, was taken away from us, and I feel tonight that each and every one of us should be inspired by the words of this great that Using energy, strength and vigor and at the same time put pounds of good healthy flesh on those who are underweight.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1927 That it requires mounting of courage and sober devotion to follow this program through to its logical conclusion. That, notwithstanding the imprisonment of Marcus Gurley, we bwe a lasting debt of gratitude to the government and people of the United States—under no other flag—in no other country would the tolerance, born of sympathy and respect for the rights of minority groups and oppressed races, enjoyed by us, be sustained. --- That each of us should take advantage of the evening and night classes in our respective communities. This is imperative if we are to carry on intelligently. We need proficient administrators to direct our destinies from the parent body as well as those of our branches scattered throughout the world. We cannot successfully prosecute our African program unless we possess that leadership capable of piloting it. This means that we must trek from the evening and night classes over into the colleges and universities here and abroad. Mastery of international law, languages, political science and history is a vital cog in the wheel of African Redemption. Africa needs statesmen, captains of industry and commerce, engineers, mechanics, scientists and chemists, lawyers, physicians, farmers, bankers, journalists, educators and such other elements of leadership that go towards the making of a great country. Each year finds the problems confronting us in pursuance of our objective growing in profundity. Unless we have the required leadership to solve their failure and discouragement will result. Resolve today that you'll qualify for leadership in the association and pursue your studies accordingly. That if all the monies given for the cause of African redemption to responsible and irresponsible represen- man, should be uniting our every effort to see that he is vindicated. Two years, and yet the prison walls hold him in check. Two years, and our hearts are still languing for him. And, my friends, may I not ask you tonight: 'Are you going to allow two more years to find him incarcerated in Atlanta?' Suffering Unjustly * "Marcus Garvey our leader," is suffering for the four hundred million Negroes of the world. He is suffering tonight unjustly, suffering because the powers that he desired the exploitation of Africq and to hold down the Negroes of the world. They thought that by imprisoning him, in Atlanta penitentiary they would destroy the ideal he had already implanted in the breasts of Negroes, but we say to tonight to the world that we are, on this the second anniversary of his imprisonment, rededicating ourselves to the principles of One God, One Aim and One Destiny, and though they may hold him in the physical yet his spirit is driving us on to the redemption of Africa, our mother." "As we look around and see the many difficulties that are being placed in our way we catch a glimpse of why Marcus Garvey is in prison When we see the uprising in China, when we see the restlessness of other groups who are seeking self-determination, we begin to realize the why and whencefore of the fervent hate to send Marcus Garvey to his St. Johns. Yes, they have taken him away from us, the greatest man that this century has prodeed. This very minute he is lying in Atlanta prison. We begged, we pleaded, we did everything, possible to secure his release, to prove for the world that he was sincere and that all he desired, was the freedom and redemption of his race but to no avail. "Premature" "But, my friends, a great world struggle is about to dawn in the world. It cannot be stopped; it is coming; it is gathering momentum every day, and you and I, my friends, may arise tomorrow morning, and read that Negroes must be conscripted. But we shall tell them that two years ago today they took away from the Negroes the man in whom we had placed unbounded confidence. They took him away not expecting this day to come, and now that they want us to go and fight their battles, we shall say to them the same thing they said to Marcus Garvey—it is premature.' "And let us not forget the last words Marcus Garvey uttered as he entered Atlanta penitentiary—'Will they forget me?' Have you forgotten him, my friends (Cried out of 'No.') I sincerely hope that no one here present will ever forget that it was Marcus Garvey whom God sent to lift us out of the darkness into the marvelous light, and he loved 'Arise and shine, for the light has come and the glory of the dawn has risen upon Ethiopia.' Now we have heard the cry. Now that he is suffering, we are suffering with him. Our hearts are heating with his, and our only regret in that there is nothing which we can do this moment to release him from a cruel prison. A Great Responsibility "You and I, who have been left here have a great responsibility—the responsibility to keep the work alive. I once thought that the most pathetic sight I ever viewed with my mind a boy was the sight of Jesus turning over his blessed Mother to his disciples. But, my friends, see Maxon Garvey entering the prison walls of Atlanta to suffer for this race, and see him turning over to us the responsibility of this organization, and you see a night which should impress your every art and sense you to join hands and hearts gently to put over the preamble." Two years have passed and the enemy has not been able to discourage me. Two years, and the Universal Negro Improvement Association goes onward one hundred percent. Let us really more than ever to the banner of the God, the Black, and the Green. tatives in the name of Universal Negro Improvement Association were received by the parent body, we would now hoist of our first colony in Africa, two profitable steamship lines enclosing the globe with African commerce, a larger Negro World and the honorable employment of thousands of our people in all parts of the world. Best of all, the Hon. Marcus Currier would be, at his desk at 50 West 135th street, New York City, instead of in a damp prison cell in Atlanta, Ga. That Marcus Currier has made his greatest contribution to Africa's dehumanization. This much the world recognizes. His was the opening chapter in one of the grandest classics of racism. We, the members only, can write the subsequent chapters in terms of loyalty and devotion to duty in the master himself has so inspiringly set forth in chapter one. That 40 members each of our most progressive branches can send sufficient funds to the parent body weekly for 50 weeks to put the association on a sound financial footing At $1.00 per member each branch would contribute $40.00, fifty branches $2,000.00 weekly. The religious performance of this service means that at the end of 30 weeks, 40 members of 50 branches should have contributed, without any sacrifice whatever, $190,000.00 towards the redemption of Africa. The call is for 2:000 red-blooded Gurray voyettes to make a weekly tribute of $1.00 to the parent body for 50 weeks. The success of this campaign means the abortion of spasmoid and consistent parent body appeals for funds from your division to meet its daily obligations; an opportunity for your local to expand and develop; efficiency at the parent body and in the field; appreciation and encouragement for the Hon. Marc Garvey and the administration, and more rigorous prosecution of the program. It can be done. If you are interested in this suggestion write the parent body immediately about it. that when Marcus Garvey returns to us he shall find us carrying on the work that he has left us to do and he shall give us his commendation " (Applause.) Brit addresses were also delivered by Hon W. A. Wallace and Hon. F. Lovell Lord, who stressed the necessity for unity especially at this time when the enemies are doing their utmost to dishearten and discourage. The meeting was brought to *n* close with the singing, of the President's Hymn and the Ethiopian National Anthem. Hearst "Peace Plan" Hits Japan Hard; Says Soviet Paper MQSCOW, Feb. 5 - The first Soviet comment to appear on William Randolph Hearst's proposal for an alliance of "English-Speaking Nations," declares the plan is directed sharply against Japan, South America and the proletariat of England and America. Economic Life, the Government's most important economic newspaper, devoted its leading article to Mr. Hearst's project two weeks after the press of other European countries dealt with it. The editorial area in the proposed alliance merely another episode in "the forcish search for equilibrium among constantly changing groups of capitalist countries" and declares that "all now pacts and alliances are a reflection of a general uncertainty felt in capitalist countries. Continuing in this tone, which is an extremely moderate one for a Soviet journal, the Economic Life says: "The American newspaper king, William Randolph Hearst, urges as the basis for an English-American agreement, a guarantee of mutual neutrality in case other power entries into armed conflict. Both sides must oblige themselves not to support with weapons or by any other means, the enemies of the other. "The objective meaning of the Heartst offer is 'clear', 'Mutual neutrality' means disarmament for every country in the world so far as America is concerned, but it is apparent that without the active support of England, a fight with the United States has very little chance of success." "Here Heartst has in view, without doubt, first of all, Japan and South America. Moreover, under cover of such an alliance the peaceful conquest of the English dominions by the United States is made considerably easier." Population for 1927 Put at 118,628,000 WASHINGTON, Jan. 31 — Computations by the government's census experts indicate that the population of continental United States on July 1, 1927, will be 118,628,000. That is an increase of 1,492,000 over the estimate for July 1, 1928, and an increase of 12,017,280 over the figure for January 1, 1929, when the last official census was taken. The new estimate announced today by the census bureau is based, among other things, on available data regarding birth, death, immigration and emigration. Estimates for each of the States were made by distributing the total estimated increase in the same proportions as the actual increase between the two censuses of 1910 and 1920 was distributed. Those States which showed a decrease between 1910 and 1920, or between 1920 and 1925, however, were not credited with having made any increase since. No figures were announced for any possible division smaller than States Theater goers all over the country admire the beautiful hair of Miss Katheryne A. Boyd of the J. Lawrence Criner Company.

This delicately fragranced, fine-textured preparation is easy to use, keeps my scalp healthy, and makes my hair soft, straight, silky and glossy." If everybody knew How easy it is to make their hair long, straight and glossy using Improved Pluko Hair Dressing, everyone would have beautiful hair that is easy to arrange in any manner and stays that way looking smooth and glossy; because this soft, daintily perfumed preparation is so economically priced everyone can afford to use it.

"Startling" Talker His contacts with European, notably at the Peace Conference in Paris, when he accompanied the delegate of the Cantonese Government., Dr. G. C. Wu, have given him a savior fate, an ease of talking, particularly in English, that those who have met him recently call "startling." Usually he wears Chinese garments, a contrast to many of his colleagues educated in this country and in England. Chen, who is known also as Chen Yu Jon, was born in Trinidad in 1878. While still a young man he went to London, studied law and became a solicitor, with an excellent practice. Two years before the outbreak of the European war he went to China and entered the Government service at Peking. He abandoned law in favor of newspaper work and in 1914 he was editing the Peking Gazette, which later, he came to own His editorials were widely read in China, particularly among the anti-Japanese element, and in 2017 he was arrested for his strong opinions expressed in printer's ink. For reasons not altogether clear, but dictated possibly by diplomatic considerations, he was held prison some time until he was pardoned finally by President In Yuan Hung. Peking apparently had become too hot to hold him, so he went south and found friends among the more radical Cantonese, particularly the late Dr. Sun Yat Sen, then at the height of his power as leader of the Nationalist movement. That throughed leader saw the possibilities in the young man, made him his secretary and, with the far-sighted policy that was ever his, despatched him to Paris in 1910 to act as advisor to Dr. Wu. Attracted World Attention Upon his return he was in higher favor still because he had attracted world-wide attention; especially in his protests over the intricate Shantung matter. Three years later, in 1919, he was made foreign adviser to the Customeese Government, and last April formally appointed Foreign Minister, an office which he held in theory, not in fact, over since he had become Dr Sun Yat Sen's protege. For the most part his life in Canton was uneventful, comparatively speaking, though he was frequently interviewed by Occidental journalists on various phases of the Chinese question. One exception occurred, however, two years ago, when he was kidnapped by rebel soldiers and taken to Pontain. Here he was saved just in time from being executed. Last year Chen expressed himself emphatically against any American interference in China, and despite the possibility that some days, when conditions are quieter, American capital might become infiltrated in that country, he asserted that Americans who viect China do so at their own risk. Chen Appeals to British Labor Party Against Force LABOR PARTY Against Force HANKOW Feb 2.—General uneasiness prevails among the foreign community here as a result of a statement of Cantonese Foreign Minister Eugene Chen suspending the treaty negotiations with Great Britain until British forces have been withdrawn from Shanghai, to which the British have not agreed. The apprehension of foreigners was heightened because today marked the YOU TH beginning of one month's idleness during which the Chinese will celebrate the advent of their New Year. Anti-British Illustrated papers falsely depicting great slaughter of unarmed and peaceable Chinese by British armed troops and British cavalry during the autumn of 1918 again are making their appearance. Edgene Chen, Fogelign Minister of the Cantonese Government, issued an appeal to British Labor leaders declaring a settlement of differences between England and the Nationalist Government could be reached "if only there is a cessation of the war atmosphere and war neurosis" at Shanghai. The British Laborites previously and indorsed the pronouncement of the Cantonese Government of January 24, in which Chan preclaimed the ability of the Cantonese to impose their will on Nationalist China, and inviting the powers to negotiate with him for a settlement of differences. The appeal further declares it is significant that although the Americans and Japanese also have large interests there, they have not found it necessary to resort to the massing of armed forces in China. Chen also asserted: "It is not and never has been within the contemplation of the Nationalist Government, to occupy by force the Shanghai International Settlement, and, concludes that the Nationalist Government must perforce, await the ending of this period of duress before authorizing the signing of an agreement to settle the status of territory known as the British Concession at Hankow. Italian Force for China; More Indian Troops ALLIAIBAD, Indian, Febs 7.—An other branch of Indian troops is preparing for service in the Far East. It was learned from usually valuable sources. The date of their departure is not yet known. ROME, Feb. 7.—A force of 1,500 man will be carried to China by the head-naught, which is scheduled to go for Far Eastern waters shortly. It will be equipped for service on shore if a landing is necessary. Political leaders have received with enthusiasm news of Italian support of the British policy, although no official announcement has been made of the extent of the support it was understood that decision to align with great Britain followed exchange of notes between London and Rome. Soviet Troops Muster PEKIN, Feb. 7. Marshal Chang Tao-Lin's chief of staff and right hand man, Yun-Yum-Fang, has insistedently from Mukden urging his chief to return there immediately.

MORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PR The Universal Negro Improvement Association believes that no white man is good and honest enough to govern or rule the Negro, and no Negro is good and honest enough to govern or rule the white man, because Nature made them ethnically separate and distinct, with their own selfish, respective, racial concepts, idealisms, purpose and destiny. They are positively different and morally dissimilar. If the one, however, by laziness, neglect, indifference or greed thinks himself economically, politically, or otherwise, under the influence or dictatorship of the other, then he has forfeited Nature's claim and the right to universal respect and protection. By becoming a being without pride or self-respect socially, politically, economically or morally, he has contributed to his own weakness and delinquency, and any abuse or advantage taken of him should be tolerated because he subscribes to and encourages his own racial inferiority. is due to the activity of Chinamen who have been educated in Europe or America. Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the moving spirit in the present as in the past unrest in China during the past fifteen or more years, and whose death was a great misfortune to the Chinese cause, was educated in the United States. It is also understood that the Nationalist faction is in close touch with the Russian Soviet government. It is this fact, it is hinted, which gives the treaty powers so much of fear that the Chinese revolution may, if they do not make the necessary concessions, provoke a war which will sweep through Asia from China to Egypt. Great Britain is not ready, for such a conflict. She has India, Egypt, and her African Possessions to protect. But such a war is possible. Those who sow to the wind reap the whirlwind. LIFE IMPRISONMENT FOR FOURTH OFFENDERS P AUL. the-chief apostle to the Gentiles, says that "the law is hardly made for a just man." That is to say, in a com- munity, where all the people act just and wise and truthful towards each other there is no need of law and law enforcement. There are to be found, however, very few such communities in the world. Everywhere there is a law-abiding and a criminal element, and a very great deal of the time and money of the law-abiding group is spent in the effort to keep the criminals from destroying everything that is necessary and of worth. How costly the machinery of the law is, how vast and costly the judicial and police system, with that of legislation, of course, included, it does not require a person of much imagination to figure out for himself: It is a terrible tax on the law-abiding people everywhere, a tax which they pay in the high cost of living; a tax which enters into all that is necessary to existence; a tax which goes in the last analysis to the protection of life and property. Every producing member of society pays his share of this enormous taxation, made necessary to save themselves from the acts of the idle and lawless, who live by their crimes and their wits. The flood of lawlessness which has gripped the United States since the World War, and which was caused by the moral forces of destruction let loose by the war, is such as never before contropthed the nation, and is being felt by most of the Christian nations. It has made a new method of dealing with criminals necessary. As a matter of course, every social order should contain within itself the right and the authority to protect itself from the acts of its lawless members. There should be no limit, to the scope of such right and authority, even to the virtual extermination of the chronic offenders. That is the theory, which, however, everywhere in Christendom, reserves to the alleged criminal the right to be heard in his own defense and be tried by a jury of his peers. There has been a great outcry against the Baumes law, passed by the legislature of New York, one of which makes conviction for a fourth offense life imprisonment. Many judges think the law too sweeping and some of them have refused to impose the penalty, which, however, the higher courts have held to be mandatory upon all judges, while other judges hold that the severity of the law has acted as a deterrent upon criminals. Public opinion is divided on the justness of the law; but the fact remains that habitual criminals, such as fourth offenders are considered to be, deserve little consideration and sympathy—no more, in fact, than they extend to their victims, whom they do not hesitate to murder in carrying out their thieving purposes. The law-abiding members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association believe that they should be protected from the criminal acts of their neighbors, and that those who defy the law, and show no disposition to make a business of doing so, should be so dealt with as to make them harmless, whether by the imposition of life sentence in prison or death by the executioner. And the mobocratic lynchers should be included among the criminals who should receive the severest penalties of the law. Unless a person has proper protection of his life and property and liberty what heart of hope has he to live, labor and to save? None.

HELPING THE AFRICAN AT HOME THE vast majority of the African people at home has many things to learn concerning themselves and their possibilities and their splendid land and its incomparable values, which it should be the business of their brethren in other lands to help them to know. It has not been the purpose of the Christian missionaries to teach the Africans how to make the most of their social, civil and economic values, and they have depended for their support upon the contributions of those who sent them as missionaries; it has rather been the purpose to lift up the people in their spiritual living, their moral conceptions and practices. It has been only of late years that the missionaries have adopted the policy of teaching the natives the value of making the most of their material things, of striving to make the mission work self-supporting in a measure by teaching the natives how to do things, how to know values in agriculture, in minerals, in stock raising, in forestation, and the work of doing this is still in its infancy. Nobody can read the elaborate work on "Education in Africa," being a study of West, South and Equatorial Africa, by the African Educational Commission of the Phelps-Stokes Fund and Foreign Mission Societies of North America and Europe, without having a very lively appreciation of the educational work being done in Africa, representing untold sacrifices of the workers and the expenditure of princely moneys by those who support the missionary work in Africa. The report was made several years ago by Thomas Jesse Jones, but it will long serve as a rich mine of information. The chapter on Liberia shows the extent of activity of the missionary workers and makes it all the more difficult to understand the policy just adopted by President King of excluding foreign missionaries and support of foreign mission work from Liberia, many of these societies being maintained by Negro church organizations in the United States and most of their workers being American and West Indian Negroes. What the African at home needs most is education of the hand as well as of the head, appreciation of material as well as of spiritual values; they want to be taught how to live as well as how to die; the philosophy which Dr. Booker T. Washington made popular with the Negro as well as with the white person in the United States. This education can be got by the African at home only by the institution of schools among them, by missionary and other provision, and it can best be taught the people by Negroes, educated for the purpose. From this viewpoint Liberty University on the James River, maintained by the Universal Negro Improvement Association, takes on very large proportions; it becomes, of the greatest importance in helping the African to help himself. Tribal barriers must be broken down in Africa, and the people must be taught that an "injury to one is an injury to all," that they must trust each other and organize among themselves under their own leaders to accomplish the things that will most benefit them. In short, the African at home needs most the education that will teach him what are his true values of manhood and of material possessions, and how best to control and use these for his benefit rather than for the benefit of others. And the African at home is learning all of this very rapidly, as our African newspaper exchanges indicate, much of their inspiration being drawn from the teachings of Marcus Garvey and the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It is our business to teach the African at home how best to help himself, and how this can most wisely be done should be made the subject of-consideration and discussion in all of the locals of the Universal Negro Improvement Association everywhere. CHINA'S FIGHT FOR INDEPENDENCE THE awakening in China which has so surprised the Christian powers has at bottom the assertion of Chinese sovereignty—the reclamation of those fundamental functions of administration which for their selfish purposes the Western powers have secured through treaties, often dictated at the point of the sword. The establishment of European settlements in Chinese cities, and the right of these settlements to have their own administration of the laws, independently of Chinese authority, together with the regulation of commerce and the fixing and collecting of customs taxes, have gone so far as to wellnigh strangle the life out of Chinese sovereignty. The Chinese Nationalists demand a revision of the treaties with a dozen European powers, and it is explained further that both the Cantonese and Nationalist factions have not only agreed upon treaty revision but they seek to secure possession of the foreign concessions—residences, business houses, banks, clubs, parks. And it is to protect these interests which Europeans have developed in Chinese territory at the expense of the Chinese, and often over their protests, which foreign governments are preparing to resist by military and naval force. The haste which Great Britain made to accept the conditions demanded by the Chinese, and which were the subject of negotiations between the two powers, was regarded with suspicion by the Chinese when Great Britain ordered an assault force to Chinese waters from all quarters of the globe, and the Chinese suddenly broke off the negotiations until such time as the conspirations of force should be widened. Finally the authorities had to leave China to wait while to remember that MENT Association believes that it must enough to govern or rule the most honest enough to nature made them ethnically separate selfish, respective, racial condesciny.

Dear Sir, I have been reading a clipbing from your Issue of December 18, entitled "Alabama" Women Seek for Remedy Crying Eyes," I uncover here with for your information a letter which I have just written to Mrs. Peyton A Fubank, also-chairman of the Alabama State Committee on Inter-Tribal C-Operation. We truly yours. If I JAMT Russell Sage Foundation, 130 Last 22d street, New York City February 2, 1927 Mrs. Peyton A. Bubank, vice- chairman, Alabagua, state Councilman of Interstate Co- mmerce Burial Ground operation, Springman, Ala. My Dear Mom, Eubank—I have read with great interest a newspaper clipping giving an account of the action of your committee with reference to the matters of Negro education. In 1818, at the request of Governor Charles Henderson I made a study which was published by the State under the title of "Social Problems of Alabama" You will find it in the Public Library. The facts which I discovered at that time with reference to the school facilities for Negro children correspond very closely with those which were set forth by your committee as existent at the present time, eight years later. I am convinced that your committee is right in feeling that the problem of Negro education is quite as important to the interests of the white race as to those of the colored race. Yours respectfully. HEALTH TOPICS By DR. M. ALICE ASSERSON Of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Don't Treat Rabies Lightly The New York State Department of Health has issued a warning about rabies. It is found to be on the increase in upper New York State, and unless serious control measures are taken by local authorities, it is expected that there may be some depletion from the disease. New York City has taken measures to control rabies. There is a law demanding that all dogs be muzzled by chance, a person is taken by a dog which has rabies, or is suspected of having the disease, the city will give him protective Pasteur treatment. However, the chief difficulty encountered in attempting to control the disease is that many people refuse to recognize the seriousness of it. Sometimes they will not take the Pasteur treatment even when they have been bitten. Such a case occurred last summer when a young boy in New York City was bitten. His mother took him to a clinic, where she was advised to have the child given the anti-rabie vaccine. But she did not take the matter seriously enough to have the treatment given and never returned to the clinic. A couple of weeks later the boy, who was then suffering from rabies, was taken to a hospital for treatment, but it was too late. The diseases had progressed so fast that it was impossible to save his life. If the public will cooperate with the Health Department there will be less danger from this disease. If you are bitten by a dog—examine your own pet dog—see your physician at once and have your dog examined and watched by a responsible person. If you cannot afford a physician go to the clinic nearest your home for advice. The Pasteure and rabies vaccine has been used successfully over, and over again to protect people from the danger of rabies, but it must be used early to be effective. We are told that opportunity is like the man who has no hair on the back of his head—it must be grasped are it passed or is gone forever. This may be true or it may not be true. Opportunities are many. They pour a constant stream before our eyes. If it is not of one kind another is consistently knocking at our doors. The situation are many. 'In them may be found good and evil and wrong, fortune and fate. Therefore, it is up to you to be on the alert with a discriminating mind. Be prepared for the best when it comes. The lack of preparedness has left man wondering in the dark, the opportunity to help themselves and others pass. Seattle Enterprise Nations, so unthreatened and so amphibious. This should be cared for by women and sufficiency. No one should to be made on this earth.

Every day you must try and want to try. Over and over again you must go to bed when it might be noon pleasant to stay up, and get up when you would prefer to stay in bed. You must realize that now or later that which is unpleasant must be endured. It is easy to stand in now than it will be a few years from now. To be driven, controlled, and possessed by yourself, deprived of pleasures by your own order, in not pleasant perishers But to be bossed, driven, controlled and ordered about by others when you are old is infinitely worse. You that refuse to drift now, and keep at work, will be able to rest and look back with pleasure on your youth in the winter of old age, when comes the natural resting time. Genova's Earce "No one with a speaking acquaintance with the facts or regard for the truth will be heard to ever llict the world is more peaceful and brotherly or sisterly than it was on the opening day of the first session of the League of Nations at Geneva." - London National Review. "Big battle raging in China Shanghai the prize; troops from the North beaten back by Cantonese" The Chinese dinosaur is awake all Asia is waking up, and Russia, whom "intelligent" financiers have, done everything to infiltrate, does what she can help the awakening. With intelligent direction plus flying machines, automobiles, explosives and poison gas, all of which she could make, China might do almost anything. We forget that she has 62,000,000 men of military age, in a population exceeding in number the inhabitants of the United States, Brittian, France, Germany and half a dozen other important countries combined. Just now China is determined to get rid of foreign control, and can do it if the will holds out. How long will a handful of intelligent men on the fogy British Isles dictate to 300,000,000 human beings in India, 400,000,000 in China, other millions in Africa and elsewhere? The answer is that the few that can THINK will dictate to the hundreds of millions until they learn to think, or until their leader comes to do their thinking for them — Arthur Brishaw Working for Others And the Desire for Some Appreciation BY GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS It is impossible for a selfish person to be happy. It is easier for the provisional camel to pass through the needle's eye. On the other hand unhappy persons are not always selfish. All too often they are the most unselfish of human beings Embedded, enshrined, protected and deeply beloved, there is in the heart of every noble human being of earth some one other human being who is the inspiration, the hope, the one glorified, who lives as the mainspring and life of all aspirations After Daniel Webster finished his most notable speech—his masterpiece of his career—he turned to Judge Story and said, "If Zoko was only here!" Zoko was his dear brother who had been the pal and adviser and inparable companion of his early years "When I sing well I want you to meet me in the wings of the stage, and taking me in your arms, kiss my cheek and whisper it was all right." The great Patty wrote this to her lover. Unless there is in this world some one who understands, some one who is noble and great enough to be willing to sacrifice, and give, and remember: when it costs a great deal to do so—then, no matter what triumphs we attain, no matter what success or acclaim, they all wither in meaning and we remain weary, lonely figures in a world of darkness. We work for others. Not for the apology of a nation, but for the approval and appreciation of but one or at the most but a loathing handout. There is nothing quite so unworthy in a human being as to take without giving it return an appropriate understanding appreciation. Money, of itself, can never represent the love and warmth of a heart. There must always be behind what we weg and do for others, thereof the strug gle and all of what we are in ourselves.

Shepard Negro President of the North Carolina Col- lege for Negroes came before the leg- ative committee of Baltimore for his appropriation to be sent to institute the Negro history program in the University of North Carolina. Our Billion-Dollar Fire Bill Twenty years ago the killing of men on a British warship would have brought swift and relentless punishment. Citizens would have been occupied, ports would have been shelled, indemnities would have had to be paid and financial or terrestrialgressions given by way of moral damages. And China would have been owed. This time nothing happened. One town was fired on and many Chinese were killed immediately after the engagement, but the British Foreign Office did not even have a formal demand for indemnification or apology. Desiree made a protest, certainly did not precipitate what is called on "pidure". The Chinese grew, even holder, other foreigners were handed roughly, but how was of retaliation the British Foreign Office issued its note offering to console some of China's demands. To the Chinese that had but one significance, the British were compelled to work. It was a voluntary remission of the guillotine policy — New York Times Correspondent The West African student in Europe or America is generally so taken up with the desire to imbibe all the possible knowledge offered by educational institutions that he many a time forgets that civilization is not so much a matter of knowledge as a habit of life. Knowledge without culture is like a clock without hands; it may be useful for an oneness $^{f}$ as no function in the world of practice. —Wasu, Journal of West African Students' Union of Great Britain. "To function perfectly, the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment must prohibit imprinting, compel the closure of all commercial and private bills and home brews, the elimination of bootlegging, the establishment of a corps of strictly honest prohibition officials, if such can be recruited in the United States. "The reverse of the medalion is that the customs, habits, morals and religious observances of millions of people are to be affected by some maracious psychological transformation, which I have seen, heard or know nothing of. "Appeal to common sense and unity of ideals and standards seems to me the only effective remedy. In a democratic country the ballot, after all, is the determining factor, the solution of a grave public health menace." Dr. Charles Norris, N. Y. Health Commissioner. Army meals cost only about 12 cents each, says one report. Another states that the United States sailor's fare costs 53 cents daily, or about 18 cents a meal. This raises the interesting question, why does it cost six cents more per meal to feed our sailors than it does to feed our soldiers? Is it to be assumed that the sailor's appetite is, about 50 per cent bigger than the army man's? That seems incredible. Any one who has ever sat at an army mess table knows that the army appetite has few equals, and surely, no superiors. Some abstruse reason must explain the marked difference between the cost of the army meal and the navy meal. "It would seem to give navy recruiting officers a marked advantage over army recruits. Perhaps, instead of suggesting "Join the navy and see the world," it would be more persuasive to say "Join the navy and grow fat." But in the interests of espirit do corps it would be well to keep enlisted army men in the dark about the greater cost of navy show. Emphasizing the fact that an army travel on its stomach, the might demand an extra six cents' worth of angel cake or taplock pudding. But in either case, of course, the cost is which smaller than the civilian's meal, due not only to wholesale buying, but to the omission of labor costs in the fairing. The six cents difference may be merely a difference in factors of purchasing or bookkeeping — St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The doctrine of non-resistance and turn the other check is undoubtedly a beautiful hypothesis of human conduct, but it has in no case worked. Whenever tiled it has resulted in further aggression on the part of the spitter and greater aggression for the smitten.

"AF a0, advartisg it In the a NEGRO WORLD + AND GET QUICK HesULTS _ OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey DOUBLE STANDARD OF JUSTICE We suppose most of our readers are familiar with the name of Harry Daugherty, but in case they are not, let us remind them that he was the Attorney General in 1923 to whom the eight Uncle Tom Negroes addressed their celebrated plea, asking for, "the extirpation of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and to speedily push the Government's case against Marcus Garvey." About three months ago Mr. Daugherty, along with others, was tried on indictments charging conspiracy to defraud the Government in connection with the transfer of alien property. The trial was had before Judge Julian W. Matk, and resulted in a disagreement. A second trial is scheduled for the 7th inst., and the Herald Tribune of the 6th inst., states "Objections having been made to Judge Julian W. Mack, who presided at the first trial, Judge John C. Knox will sit when the case is called in the United States District Court." As we how our heads in sorrow in commemoration of the imprisonment of Hon. Marcus Garvey, we are reminded of the fact that when his case came up for trial before Judge Mack a petition was made, respectfully requesting his retirement as Trial Judge, because he is a contributor and supporter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which is bitterly opposed to the U. N. I. A., and a reader of their magazine, "The Crisis." Judge Mack heard the motion, and denied it on the ground that the affidavit did not show "personal bias against the party." As to his connection with the N. A. A. C. P., he stated, "I don't know whether he is a member or whether he is both a member and contributor, but that he is at least a contributor to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and a reader of its magazine, 'The Crisis' is true." (It should be noted that a Judge must speak in the third person referring to himself.) We bring these facts to the attention of our readers and leave them to draw their own conclusions. However, we are forcibly reminded at this time of the well-known Nordic philosophy: "The black man has no rights that a white man is bound to respect." OUR PAGE IS THREE YEARS OLD Our page has reached its third year this week, and we take this opportunity of reminding our readers that they have not taken advantage of the space allotted them to express their views, this being the purpose of the page. The writer has had to produce this page under great strain, especially within the last two years, and if our women readers do not care to contribute to its columns, then we think it best to discontinue same, or pass it over to another lady, who will write on fashions and housewives's topics only. This last resort will be a reflection on the intelligence of our women readers, who should endeavor to use this opportunity to impress their opinions on the rest of us, and also on the men. In this way we will be able to command a respectful hearing before the world, and prove that Negro women are great thinkers as well as doers. A WOMAN'S RIGHT TO MAIDEN NAME Fight with Copyright Office Carried Before League GENEVA - The international right of a woman to have her maiden name legally recognized will, as the result of the issue raised before the United States Copyright Office, become an international question which will be threshed out by the League of Nations. The fight of the National Women's Party with the Copyright Bureau at Washington is being closely followed by the Intellectual Co-Operation Section, the Copyright and Trade-mark Section and the officials charged with codification of international law The justice of the claim that women writers shall be allowed to copyright works under their masters names, especially if they have made their reputations under those cognomens, is recognized. The pre-publication value of a book or play, it is declared, lies almost entirely in the reputation of a writer or producer, hence the vital necessity of permitting, registration of copyrights under those names. The difficulty of securing international agreement on the rights of women, it is pointed out, lies in the differences in political and personal freedom and rights held by women in various countries. In Great Britain, the Scandinavian countries and the United States-for instance, there is equal surrege, while in Switzerland, one of the most advanced governments in the world politically, women do not even BEAUTIFY YOUR SKIN Wonderful now preparation, clears your skin almost overnight. *D.

A "working agreement" among the United States, France, Great Britain, the Scandinavian countries and Germany, where women are taking a larger place yearly in intellectual endeavors, is the probable immediate solution, it is held. Later, when equal suffragga, and recognition of women's rights are more universal, an international agreement is regarded as possible. I have to live with myself, and so I want to be fit for myself to know. I want to be able as days go by Always to look myself straight in the eye. I don't want to stand with the set- ting sun And hate myself for the things I have done. But I want to go out with my hand erect; I want to deserve all men's respect; And here in the struggle for fame and self I want to be able to like myself; I don't want to look at myself and know That I am bluster and bluff and empty show I never can hide myself from me; I see what others may never see. I know what others may never know; I never can fool me, and so Whatever happens, I want to be Self-respecting and conscience-free Twenty-three answers were received to this request, among which were many copies of the poem.

Miss Davison wore long skirts when she learned to play the organ as a girl, and her grandmother disapproved of her ambition as unladylike. "The skirt," she said, might get wiped up with fine pedals. Organ manufacturing was an inherited business in the Davison family. When her brothers fell ill Miss Davison became head of the business and was elected managing director by the stockholders.

She plans to go to Hunter College and prepare to be a teacher. Jamaica Hits Cuba Tariff Demanda That Canada Respect Present Preferential Rates to West Indies LINGSTON, Jamaica, Fri. 8—A telegram received by the Jamaica Imperial Association from the Association of the West Indian Chambers of Commerce in Trinidad asking that, in view of Canada negotiating a tariff treaty with Cuba, with the probability of it affecting the West Indies, views be sent for dispatch to Ottawa. The reply was that the Jamaica Imperial Association and the Jamaica Chamber of Commerce concur that stamps representation be made that, whatever arrangement may be effected with Cuba, the present money value of the West Indian preference must be fully maintained over and above any preferential rates guaranteed to Cuba HAWAII'S DISCOVERY A grass village of the vintage of Captain Cook's day will be one of the features of the first Pan-Pacific Polynesian Congress called for Honolulu during the period of a sesquicentennial in 1928 celebrating the 150th anniversary of the discovery of the Hawaiian islands. Leaders among the aborigines, especially of the Polynesian races, from every part of the South Pacific are expected to attend. The site of the grass village will comprise several acres of forest land on the grounds of the Pan-Pacific Research institution. These typical houses of a century and a half ago will be erected. The area set aside for the purposes lies in Manao Valley, not far from Honolulu, and is historic Hawaiian ground. Here lived many of the island chiefs of a early days. The so-called stones of a native temple is still to be seen. Great banyan, kamant and breadfruit fruit flourish. Among them the Polynesian houses, built close together, will be largely hidden by the thick tropical growth. Under 43 anomous sprouting tree it is planned to erect the Samgan council hall which after it has served its present purpose, will be used as a gathering place for Hawaiian Boy Spouts. The grass village will enjoy an unstructured view of the high mountains and waterfall of the Upper Mana Valley. From the streets of Honolulu an age-long trail leads to it, traversing a dense forest. Two clerkmen are leading spirits in the enterprise. They are the Rev. Golden Lawrence of the First Methodist Episcopal Church of Honolulu and Bishop William Waddupu of the Mormon Church who had one hundred Samanus, but no longer DECRIES IDLENESS OF LEISURED CLASS LONDON—George Bernard Shaw had a new role when he acted as chairman of & debate on 'The Monace of the Loisure 'Woman' recently. The audience which gathered at Kingway Hall to hear the debate—between Gilbert K. Chelsterton and Lady Rhondda were more stilted with the remarks of Shaw than in the actual debate. Formerly, Shaw said, woman had little leisure but nowadays that was changed by the service in flate and residential hotels, and a woman 'can spend her time drinking cocktails, going to night clubs, dancing the Charleston and doing all the things many women seem to imagine will fill their lives gloriously.' He did not know whether Mr. Chelsterton, was going to defend the night clubs, but it was his opinion that if challenged to dance the Charleston with Lady Rhondda, Mr. Chelsterton could not do it. Lady Rhonda, who heads the list of high-salaried British business women, declared that the existence of the leasured woman constitute a "grave menace to civilization." "If we continue as we are today," she said, "there is danger that this evil may wreak civilization." The clothes women wear she described as invented only for the leisure class, and worn by the rest of us because the human animal is a word animal." Mr. Chesterton defended the old tradition that the woman of the home should remain at home and occupy herself with the tremendous business of bringing up children. "The home," he said, "is the only place left where there is any liberty and individuality; and any possibility of human personalities counting as such." UNIONISM GAINS RAPIDLY IN CHINA Introduction of Industrial Era Brings. Big Changes BEKIN—China's rapid progress from the handcraft to the industrial age is being accompanied by the great industrial districts of central China by a sudden trend toward labor-unionism, which observers find highly important. Statistics compiled by the Chinese Government Bureau of Economic Information showed that labor unions in the "Wu-Han cities"—Wuchang, Hankow and Hanyang/great centers of the Yangtze River valley—numbered a membership of more than 100,000 last November, and that the work of organization was being pressed, with speed since the recent occupation of these cities by the forces of "Red Canton." Until the present year organization of the unions was forbidden in most of the districts; while the whole idea and significance was foreign to the coolie class from which factory hands were recruited. Machinery has come into China so rapidly that it is not surprising that the people have been wholly unprepared to consider this great change from the period, only a matter of months ago, when almost all work was done in the homes. In 1920 the Hankow coolies who pulled rickshaws went on strike against the Societe Française d'Automobiles et de Rickshaws, which rented vehicles to the workers, and argument over the amount of rent to be paid the company led to, organization of the Hankow Rickshaw Men's Union. Two years later came the Union of Hankow Cotton Dealer's Employees and the Hankow Printer's Union. During 1928 progress in organization was rapid, particularly after the southern troops from Canton had occurred the district in September The fickshaw pullet's union in Hankow now number 7,000 members while there is a long list of other unions including employees of cotton mills, tobacco companies and printing shops, domestic servants, wharf workers, restaurant waiters, cook makers, coal carpens, bristle makers, barbers, oil mill workers and a variety of other tollers. Free schools are to be established for workmen under the various unions, and other constructive work is planned TABLE MANNERS FOR CHILDREN Children should be taught to *go quietly* and to resort to an *fow* needless motions as possible. Tapping on the alver or the plates; gesticulating with a fork or marking on the tablecloth are all signs of nervousness which should be discouraged immediately before they have a chance to become habitual. Please teach your children that there are 'two sorts' of blinders in table manners. One causes inconvenience and does not. To use the wrong fork or spoon for one certain food can harm no one. It is a matter for one own pills and self-confidence to be able to do these things properly, thus to minimise clumsy and therefore injure something in quite another matter and demand sincere and frank apology.

NOTES OF INTEREST Change in Women Due To Increase in Bachelors We call this a man-made world laws for men made by men, a solidarity, of men in business, in professions, in politics. But the social world is run by women and just as soon as they find, that new customs, new practices, new freedoms militate against their happiness as wives and mothers, they will rehabilitate Mrs. Grundy and give her such powers as she never hold before in the social world. The pendulum has not swung quite that far, yet, but it is swinging in that direction. And the factor in the situation which will expeditate the change is the growing reluctance of the eligible man to merry, the disturbing increase in the number of bachelors. Anna Richardson "The industry of this country could not long exist if factories generally went back to the ten-hour day, because the people would not have the time to consume the goods produced. For instance, a workman would have little use for an automobile if he had to be in the shops from dawn until dawn. And that would react in countless directions, for the automobile, by enabling people to get about quickly and easily, gives them a chance to find out what is going on in the world—which leads them to a large life that requires more food, more and better goods, more books, more music—more of everything. The benefits of travel are not confined to those who can take an expensive trip—Honry Ford. Since You Have It, You May Take It Britain's generosity to China reminds one of the story of the thirsty but penniless citizen who wended his way to Henesey's bar for his morning encouragement. He had his drink, and when the bartender said "a dime," the customer admitted that the he had no money. The bartender shouted down the cellar to the boss: "Say, is Murphy good for a drink?" "Did I have it," asked the boss. "He had, replied the bartender, "Ho Ig." concluded the boss: "Daily Worker." Where Do You Fit In? Smoking by women in America is largely confined, first, to propitutes; second, to "high society" women who have money but have not or are not loyal to family traditions," third, to poes little flappers with hips in their stockings, who want to imitate the society dame—Methodist Board of Public Morals. Uncle Sam Talks Back to Europe "Had South and Central American States been as close to Great Britain, France, Italy, and Germany, as they are to the United States, and had the United States not been in the way, those benevolently assimilating Powers of Europe would have been fighting for the last hundred years for the possession of these South American countries. "When in the last two generations did any of these European Powers now expressing indignation over American imperialism lose a chance to use civil intrigue in a weak and distant country, to go into it with armed forces and either force concessions or acquire the whole country? The continent of Africa is an example of what would have happened to South America had Europe been as close to it as Africa, and what might have happened to South America anyway had it not been for the Mokro-Doctrine. A large part of Asia is an example of what might have happened to Central America"—Springfield Union. United Mine Workers Bar Out Communists By permanently barring Communists from their ranks, the United Mine Workers are returning to the original principles of trade unionism. When trade unions were first organized this country their purpose was twofold. To promote the interests of the wage-barners and to protect those interests. The elimination of the Communist accomplishes both purposes. There has never been convincing evidence that communism who a real monarch to owe trade unions as a whole. But there, have been apopally attempts on the part of radicals to lead the workers away from the early ideals of their organizations. The very fact that each of these attempts has met with vigorous opposition is proof in itself that the danger of so-called Red influence has not been great. If the congressional which has marked the miners' session at Indianapolis this year had been followed by the workers in the past, there undoubtedly would have been more paved in the industry. The miners have learned, hard, and have the operations. The workers are beginning to profit by the mistakes of the past under the leadership of men who are anxious to see as they and courteous.—Philadelphia Public Ledger.

His Ideal Is to Save His People From Misery and Ignorance President Calles, in answer to a question submitted to him by representatives of several Mexican newspapers in regard to alleged Bolshevism in Mexico, had this to say. "I have no objection to express to you my opinion. It can be summarized in one word: 'propaganda.' It is merely a propaganda which, if it were not slanderous, would be ridiculous. "What sound mind could shelter the idea that Mexico, a country in process of organization, without an army for conquest, without even a shadow of a navy, would plan to threaten the defenses of the Panama Canal or the defenses of other countries?" "It is even logical to think that we, who fight with sacrifice to put our house in order, would become apostles of exegetic doctrines? The propaganda about Mexican Bolshevism is a new issue to discredit Mexico. Once I have stated that the problem of Mexico was the problem of no other country, that my government did not wish to govern itself by foreign theories but by domestic facts, and therefore the political problems of Russia are as strange to us as they are to the United States. "My government maintains official relations with the Soviet government, just as other great countries in Europe maintain relations with it, and just as other nations, on account of commercial interests, probably will have to maintain, because relations between countries have to be based on a profound respect for the opinions of mankind." "The ideal of my government, which is the salvo as the ideal of my people, is to save the great mass of the population from misery and ignorance, to raise their social standards, to teach them a better system of food, to give them schools and culture, to raise them to a higher degree of civilization, to make the nation more homogeneous, fill the great gap that between a small group of Mexicans who had bad all the comfort and enjoy refinement and well-being, and the great population of Mexicans, exploited by all tyrannies, neglected by all Administrations, sunk immensely, sorrow and shadows. "I am the friend of the humble and the poor of my country, and not because I may want to amuse myself with their wretched conditions or morbidly to enjoy the plasticity of their local color. I am their friend precisely because I wish to take them out of that condition and better them to the point of establishing the foundations of their economical, social and intellectual elevation. "This program, when seen even with a minimum of sympathy, is a soundly Christian program, but it is branded as Bolashevian by our gratuitous destructors. I am sure that if, instead of holding such ideals, I would devote myself to the easy task of contiguing the work of Porfirio Díaz, barking only the rich of my country, seizing the poor, shooting the workingman, squandering abroad the products of this land, paying newspapers to prune and cultivating sterile fattery. I would obtain the false titles of preacher of this country and rebelder of the nation. "I prefer to be without those titles and carry, on this humanitarian task even if by doing it my government is marked with the name of Bolashevian which the propaganda is giving it. I leave to think to pass the difficult judgment." It is much easier to be original than to be correct. Dismiss ```markdown ``` Special Spirals in Drugs and Agrumes by the Gross or Daxen AT YOUR DRUGGIST OR DIRECT FROM TO LIVE ON AFRICAN DESERT MOUNTAIN Wife and Child to Stay Two Years With Scientist—To Study the Sun WASHINGTON, Feb. 1—The wife and two-year-old daughter of an American scientist will be among the little company going into exile for two years on the summit of a desert mountain in Southwest Africa to study the sun. A lotter just received at the Smithsonian Institution from Frederick Greely, one of the two observers, reports that the instruments are now in place and that living quarters have been prepared for him and William If Hoover director of the observatory, and for Mr. Hoover's wife and child. The party's home is a natural cave on the rim of the cup shaped mountain, 2,000 feet above the surrounding plateau. The only water supply until the rain fills the new reservoirs to two miles below in the crater of the mountain. Supplies must be brought from Keetmanshoop, sixty-two miles distant, a settlement with a white population of 900. The Mount Bruikarjo observatory is one of three such solar observatories maintained by the Smithsonian Institution, the other two* at Table Mountain, Cal., and at Montezuma, Chile, having been established thirty years ago. The National Geographic Society is co-operating with the institution in the Southwest African enterprise. "With stations in three continents," says a statement issued by the Smithsonian Institution, "greater accuracy will be possible in correlating changes in the sun's heat with the earth's weather. That the sun is a variable star has been determined.

Queens Mail Order House age, Box 44, New York City THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12. 1927 Spanish Section Modo.como las potencias pehetaron en China La presencia de extranjeros en la China es en realidad un fenómeno moderno y aunque ha sido tolerada dicha presencia desde la insurrección de los boxers (principalmente por la pretencia de las fuerzas navales concentradas en sus aguas), ningun extranjero ha llegado a ser aceptado debidamente por los chinos. Confianza en sí mismo como virtud humana—Ejecutorias de la prosperidad individual y colectiva—Labor encomendada a los directores de una raza o pueblo—El mejoramiento en la condición depende de los esfuerzos realizados Los que estudian la historia asistita del oriente atribuyen el movimiento actual contra los extranjeros, no por las dificultades económicas o bien politicas que pueden sobresalir a causa de la presencia de los extranjeros en tierras chinas, sino que es debidio más que iada a la convicción llegada por los chinos en sus cuatro años de vida conocida de que todos los extranjeros barbaros y que como tales deben ser inmediatamente expulsados del país y no se les debe permitir la entrada a no ser que vayan a dichas tieras a rendir tributo a la casa reinante. La moral del vasto número que compone la hermandad de esta organización, no ha de ser afectada por las maquinaciones de una bandada de elementos de nuestra raza, quienes centralizan todo su maquiavelismo en nuestra contra. Abrigamos la esperanza de que nuestro éxito sobre tanta contrariedad, ha de crear un nuevo interes de parte de aquellos que han sido indiferentes y han estado sordos al grito de los millones de oprimidos, quienes a todas horas aclamían por una verdadera libertad, una vida mas democrática y aspiran a la redención de su propia patria. Rusia fue la primera potencia de carácter moderno' que penetró en tierra, chinas, habiendo comenzado su semi-ocupación de Manchuria alla por el año 1643 con una partida de exploradores por el rio Amur. Rusia tuvo exito en establecer esta comunicación pero fue Inglaterra la que derroco la posición reservada que tenía la China y cuyo movimiento no pudo ser llecido a cabor por los rusos. Todo aquel que se encuentre satisfecho de si mismo porque todas sus necesidades esten cubiertas, el rico, ese poderoso de la tierra, esta muy ocupado con el patronaje de su propia clase, y no se detiene un solo instante, para dar un atomo de su pensar a la piltrafa de la sociedad humana, el pobre, ser humillado, indefenso, excluido del Bienestar, que nada posee, para ayudarle, a elevarse por encima de sus miserias y sufrimientos. La penetración inglesa comenzó en el año 1840 y continuó sin interrupción en el cuarto de dos guerras hasta el año 1858 en que tuvo lugar la firma del tratado de Tientsin. Este tratado obligaba a la China a abrir las ciudadas situadas hacia el interior en el valle de Yantze llegando hasta Hankow, a los conqueriantes británicos, siendo en este pacto en el que las potencias extranjeras basan hoy día su derecho para patrullar con sus escuadras la región de Yantze. La obra de misericordia que ha venido realizandose, con el pretexto de levantar al desafortunado a la altura de un nuevo, orden social, ha sido rodeada con intensa hipocrecia y marcado profesionalismo, de aquí que su utilidad no sea sentida por aquellos a quienes se pretende servir. Del mismo modo que para el levantamiento del pobre desafortunado no se lleva a cabo un esfuerzo honrado, asf se nota en la lucha de nuestra raza, donde escasamente podemos adquirir un puesto en los asuntos del universo. Si algo obtenemos, nos vemos huerfanos del sosten del poderoso que esta rodeado de comodidad y sus actos todos, malos o buenos, se ven premiados con los laureles del éxito. Siguieron después otras-guerras y cada una de ellas dasa como resultado el abrir más la reserva china a las potencias europeas. Esto continuó así hasta que la China quedo completamente subugada quedando ante los ojos del mundo entero como completamente humillada por el Japon. Losobiernos europeos llegaron a la conclusión de que China era un gigante que no podía luchar y cuando el año 1895 se acabó la guerra con el Japon las potencias europeas se apresuaron a repartirse el territorio entre ellas. indy arduo su progreso otras razas que se creen superiores. El esfuerzo, la lucha, la batalla, el gran cúmulo de energía estriba en levantar al cajdo al plano de progreso y civilización. Aparentemente este orden revolucionario, este proceso natural, no parece ser visto con beneplácito por aquellos que se precian de prosperso y únicos, por demas absolutistas del destino de las masas que conceptuan como seres infereiores. Esto motivó ciertas demostraciones anti-extranjeras y el diá en que los chinos assesinaron a dos misioneiros alemanes, las potencias europeas tuvieron si primera oprutidad para establecer lo que hoy dia es conocido por el nombre de esferas de influencia. Como consecuencia de estos dos asesinatos, Alemania se posesionó de Kiao-chow y obligó a los chinos a concederlos por espacio de 99 años y con ello Alemania se hizo cargo absoluto de la provincia, de Shantung. Esta provincia fue tomado por los japoneses en al año 1915-y la sostuvo hasta el fin de la guerra cuando el territorio fue devuelto a los chinos. El monopolio de castas y el egoismo de clase, parece dictaminar un prejuicio de razas que crea una barrera para el aceptado concepto cristiano, de que todos los hombres son hermanos e hijos de un padre comun. En esta lucha por la vida, cada ser humano esta llamado a desempeñar su papel; cada cual tiene una misión que cumplir. Unos son llamados a ser predicadores, sacerdotes del evangelio, políticos, estadistas, industriales, filosofos, obreros, y reformadores, recayendo sobre estos ultimos la responsabilidad, la obligación del mejoramiento de la sociedad humana, no para el bienestar de los pocos, sino para el beneficio de todos en general. Rusia fue detrás tomando Port Arthur, plaza que después perdió en su guéra, con el Japon; Gran Bretáfa se posesionó de, cuatrocientes mullas cuadradas de tierra y agua en las cercanías de Hong-Kong mientras que los franceses hacían poco o menos lo mismo en el territorio que se extiende frente a Hainan. Casi al mismo tiempo que se levaba a cabo esta penetración física; se realizaba una penetración económica en la que toman parte banquero de Alemania, Francia, Inglaterra; Estados Unidos, Bélgica, cuyos sindicatos se hacían cargo de ferrocarriles, explotación de minas, etc. El gran libro-de la historia de la familia humana nos detalla-todo acerça del reformador. Sabemos que sus luchas, persecusiones, y sufrimientos son esfuerzos para llegar hasta el corazon del hombre y crear en el un sentimiento de simpata de un hermano para con el otro hermano. Siempre hemos encontrado el hombre listo para sufrir y hasta morir por hacer a otros libres, mientes un populacho sin corazon y mediocre en sus actuaciones, sofá-de los esfuerzos de su redentor y pasa por encima de esos esfuerzos con una mueca y una indiferencia satífica, por los sacrificios expuestos para su propia liberación. El gobierno norteamericano entró por primera vez en el asunto a raíz de su guerra con España, por resultados de la cual obtuvo las Islas Filipinas y ello hizo ie los Estados Unidos tomanan una paste activa en los asuntos asiáticos. Rusia y Alemania se pusieron a la cabeza abriendo sus territorios al comercio extranjero en e lafo 1899 y esto fue lo que hizo el secretario de Estado Hay,janzara la iniciativa de seguir la norma a puertas abiertas. El secretario pido que las potencias relacionadas con el asunto garantizan la conservación de la integridad de la China así como asegurar los mismos derechos para todos los extranjeros allí residentes. La civilización y con ella la humanidad de este siglo no ha camblado, mucho, a ecepción de su descrito desde tiempos remotos. Nos encontramos en el caos; todavía vamos sin rumbo hacia el precipicio de la destrucción, y por tal razon hoy mas que nunca necesitamos imperiosamente verdaderos reformadores; aquílos que no tengan miedo en sufrir y morir por una, causa justa; individuos que desprecien la oposición de un sistema social organizado, de una escula maliciosa y opresora; hombres que a pie firme defiendan el bien de la gran mayoria de la humanidad; hombres dotados del sufiente valor para señalar al mundo sus errores e injusticias. He aquí el勺 sobre el cual nosotros debemos llamar la atención de la raza blanca, hacia el mal e injuria que esta infligiendo sobre el resto del mundo. Inglaterra acepto la proposición sin reserva alguna-pero las demás potencias contestaron con más cuidado pero de todas maneras, sus contestaciones fueron del agrado de Hay. Así fue cono, según dieron los estudiantes de asuntos internacionales, los Estados Unidos pusieron un fin a más extensiones de las esferas de influencia. La historia tiene tantas lecciones hérmosas que enseñarnos, que nosotros no debemos poner en duda por un solo instante las maravillas de la Naturalaleza. En el transcurso de los tiempos, las razas han tenido su escenso y descenso; mientras unas gobiernan, las otras obedecen; mientras unas triunfan, las otras se resignan bajo el peso de la bota del despotismo y de la opresión. Los bretones en Roma, los judios en Egipto, los negros en America, sin que nada digamos del resto de Asia y Africa, todos han tenido la misma expengencia. Pero los chino opinan que los extranjeros han ido demasiado lejos y se organizaron sociodades secretas cuyo en el el de cepa del pais a los extranjeros que no son del agrado de los nacionalistas chinos.

Para reorganizar los gobier nos de las posesiones La creación de una nueva oficina para: administrar los gobiernos territoriales de Filipinas, Puerto Rico, Islas Virgenes, Guam y Samoa, se propone en un proyecto de le preparado por el presidente Willis del comité territorial del senado, como resultante de la investigación de C. Thompson en las Filipinas. Puerto Rico y las Filipinas, estan ahora baña la administración del departamento de Guerra y los otros tres territorios baña la del departamento de la marina. El proyecto de Willis dejaria a Hawaiis Alaska en su actual status, baña el departamento del Interior. La oficina insular seria presidida por un director, el cual no dependerá de los actuales departamentos ejecutivos e informaria directamente al presidente. En su mensaje anual al congreso el ultimo otfoio el presidente Coolidge dijo que se aproximaba el momento en que las Filipinas tendían que pasar del control militar al control civil. Según el informe de Thompson, dijo el senador Willis en declaración: el governador de las Filipinas sostenia que bajo el actual sistema puede ayudar a los consultores norteamericanos unicamente del departamento de Guerra, bajo cuya supervisión las las han sido gobernadas desde la ocupación norteamericana y que estos consultores son necesarios oficiales del ejército. El cobelon Thompson dijo que no encontró pruebas de antioterenicanismo que necesitara el contror militar en las Filipinas y de su experiencia como presidente del comité de territorios y posiones insulares, tengas todos las razones para creer que no hay peligro de sedicción o insurrection entre las posiones de Ultramar. La presentación de este proyecto no es en mantra alguna reflexión sobre el general Wood. Los varios gobernadores de las posiones insulares informarian al director de asuntos insulares. El proyecto no estorbaria a los gobernadores de las parias posiones insulares, los que continuarán siendo nombrados por el presidente. Los acontecimientos en China se han desarrollado rapidamente y de una manera dramática durante las ultimas cuatro semanas. Los chinos han idan tan lejos en sus demandas a los poderes dopinantes, entre los cuales Inglaterra es la más considerable, que intentan suspender las hostididades internas por una revisión de la linea de igualdad la liberación del territorio rescaido. Estos hechos han seducido a Inglaterra a reconcentrar una gran parte de sus fuerzas de mar y tierra en el extremo oriente, y ello la dado mucho que pensar a los dos poderes, los cuales presenten que grandes acontecimientos estan suspendidos. en el aire por un hilo muy fino, que al menor impulso se despeñerden ocasionando otra conflacración universal, tal vez mas terrible aún que a basada. Todos los tal llamados poderes cristianos creen que deben protejer la vida y propiedad de sus mercaderes y misioneros en China, y no dejar que las autoridades de dicho país atendan a esa cuestión, incurrendose de ese modo en una infracción de los principios de ley internacional; todo lo cual dichos-poderes no permitirian en el caso de chinos de cualquier otro pueblo de Asia o de Africa. El pueblo Chino así como también todo pueblo de Asia y de Africa, puede defender sus derechos por la fuerza de las armas. La tan instigada contienda entre oriente y ocidente viene, haciendose gradualmente un hecho. Sea cuales fueren la consecuencias, el derechos prevalecerá finalmente.

MOSTUART-YOUNG She was once a wealthy and influential trader. They told me that thirty years ago she possessed a houseful of domestic slaves, and that her man, a native of some down-pier station, had only one complaint against his principal wife. That complaint was her sterility. Madurid has never had children of her own, and her manner toward them is full of yearning and tenderness. It is nearly two decades since I first saw her, this smiling and bowing little lady of ebon skin. She has always been the same queen-like and yet gentle creature. The bee in her bonnet is that she owns the hundred-and-one trading establishments of the town a mild form of megalomania. She calls regularly to collect her "roots", but she goes away contentedly enough if she shilling, a skipence or even the modus "tickle" (threepence) is preformed at last. Ten years ago she was cleaney, a little less haggard, and much better dressed. Slowly round the town she went on her way, this smiling and bowing little lady of greetings with her "substance" their way to market, or glowing trustfully into the eyes of any European she might encounter. On the beach, near the roar and radiance of discharging and loading river launches, she would be found, quenely and self-contained, amid all the cleaner. Then at fall of night, she would as silently disappear. Where? Nobody seemed to know. The evening breeze was her escort home; and only the sun saw her reappearance in the streets. Ever she was as neat as a new pin—a gaudy Madras knoblief over her kinky curtsy, a glittering and cottony right jape" of Manchester cotton and a night jape" of Manchester cotton her waist. Today she is dingier and inclined to be-querulous. "To and for she goes—from factory to factory, from store to store. 'I want my rent.' The voice is sometimes harsh and. impatient. She forgets for the nonce her role of the smiling and bowing little queen. A few minutes of banter and a nickey coin may be produced by the playful white man. Scornfully it is rejected. 'I want my rent.' Only the gift that though to pay for her needs (skin pads, shaving cream, a look of relief on her face face. As her visits now only occur at nightly to monthly intervals, no one of the trading firms can justly complain that—like the poor—she is "always" with us. Some of us would fail do more to relieve her distress, were it not for her imperious pride What does she think about, this poor mad Murdigi? Who knows? I often ponder whether she realizes the changes, stupendous, nerve-destroying, that have grown into being about her. Thirty years ago this was a tiny tropical village, with a market at only four days' interval. If one wished to buy a fowl or a few eggs and vegetables, one has to wait for the fourth day before the wish could cosleep into reality. The changes came with the adaption of the government-provements, developed competitions-competition—and then the war. The war placed the keystones in the Arch of Nigeria's Progress. Motor transport had arrived to stay, and another breed of whites, alert, brisk, youthful, took the place of the earlier type of drink-sodden "Old Coaster." New bungalows and trading stores, imposing, palatial, sprang from the soil. Finer boats, of greater tonnage, stronger engines and nobler dimensions, began to slide to berth on the river-banks. More expensive clothes were worn by the natives themselves. English had become popular and might be heard on every side. The rising generation was going to school in the thousands and its tenure of thousands. Indeed, the African's day seemed to be at down Only Madurigi remained unchanged—this smiling and bowing little lady of the ebon skin.

The shade of the first Napoleon stood in the fog on the Thames embankment, heaved a sigh that could be hoarded through the thick walls of the Tower of London, and repeated offhand the most perfect palindrome in the English language: "Able was I ! are I saw Elbe" The quotation marks are ours, but if anything they improve the original. Pallidromists were thick, numerically, in London in those days of a century ago and more, and a goodly half dozen of them" were stumbling on the road.

One of the bibulous British Farm Workers LONDON—An army of 14,000 English yemen is about to invade Canada—the largest contingent that has ever left the mother-country for a colony. They are going to conquer the soil, but like a modern army, they are being recruited for a definite job—the spring sowing of 1927. This migration is part of the new Empire settlement scheme, by which thousands of able-bodied Britons will be sent out with government aid, to supply an agricultural population for Canada and Australia. A call has been sent out by the Ottawa Government for 4,000 men, and they will be supplied. As required, 6,800 of them will be fully experienced formhands, 8,000 will be partly experienced, and the rest raw recruits, to be trained on the soil. All these immigrants, as well as soldiers under the families settlement plan, will travel to the record cheap role a head from London, Quebec, $22.50 to Winnipeg, and $27.50 to Calgary. points?

But as Eve was closing up and the last musty was being doyed, one of the scholarly palindromes stood on his oaken stool, with one foot on the table and gave them pause with this: As this reads four ways, upward, downward, backward and forward, the rest gave hip and they all, went home.

To the Editor of the Negro World: Before I began to attend U. N. I a meetings I did not know many things that I understand quite well now. I know that the Honorable Marcus Garvey is a real leader. He has revealed to the members of his race certain principles and ideas that will eventually change the history of future genera- tions of the Negro. The Honorable Marcus Garvey is a type of divine messenger. Many have been sent to matthas and races in the past. These great leaders are endowed from birth with certain attributes that fit them for the special work. You wouldly great leaders appear as other people; but their inner life, from which we draw inspiration, is not like ours. Many things which are marriotic to us are quite plain to our leaders. It is unfortunate that many people fail to understand the message of salvation when it is given to them. These people persecute the leader and reject the truth which he brings to them. These divine messengers come to different races and nations in different ages; but their messages are fundamentally the same. Even though many reject the message and slay the messenger, the truth lives and, sooner or later, all come to understand and acknowledge the truth. Marion Garvey will come into his own some day. EVANGELIST JOHNSON. Mismi, Florida.

We have been close observers of your never wavering fight to pave the way for the redemption of Africa. We believe that future generations will see what many have failed to see and understand today. The time will surely come when our oppressed people will attain nationhood and peace removed from the prejudice and persecution of cruel and ambitious nations. This will come to pass when we work hard enough to bring it to pass. God has given each a home in this world and there is no reason why the Negro should not possess his God given home. Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are determined to win with the guidance of the God who loves us all and the leadership of the Honorable Marius Garvey.

Jan 28 - A Stewardship Council, formed by all Protestant agencies in continental United States, finds that the 23,000,000 persons allied with them gave, in 1929, $490,700,000 to maintain and extend religion. They averaged $21.62 per member, the Limited Presbyterians giving most of all per member, the Reformed Church people next and Episcopalians third. The benevolent funds were just beyond $92,000,000 and the congregational expenses just beyond $173,000,000. If to the $490,700,000 gifts of Protestants be added the gifts of Jews and Catholics, the former far larger than ever before, the total gifts of American people to the cause of religion during 1926 will, it is estimated, approach $750,000,000. The religious body to give most of all is the Methodist, and of South and North be counted together, they far outstrip all other bodies, with $440,000,000 to their credit. The figures for Presbyterians, South and North, who rank second in gifts, are exactly half the Methodist figures.

The old maid once settled in spinsterhood is not bothered by these 'details', says Prof. Garland.
