Jurors Who Found Marcus Garvey Guilty On One Count Sign Recommendation To Coolidge For Release
Document Forwarded With Third Application By Great Leader For Pardon- Two Jurors Could Not Be Located, While the 12th Declined to Sign, Stating Trial District Attorney So Advised Him.
The members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will be delighted to learn that the Hon. Marcus Garvey is much better and has been discharged from the prison hospital at Atlanta penitentiary, where he was recently confined with an attack of la grippe and asthma. He lost twelve pounds during his illness, but is now, let us fervently hope, on the way to complete recovery. His remarkable tenacity and courage, however, remain with him in full measure, as will be gleaned from perusal of the following brief message which he has penned to the millions of his followers throughout the world. An active, vibrant personality such as is his must of necessity chase under the restraint of prison walls, but the ardor, the spirit of the man, his faith in himself and in the cause he so nobly espouses are untrammeled by man-made circumstances. He writes:
"There will be a judgment for the wicked, and I am satisfied to bide my time. I see manifestations of the coming day everywhere, so I am not alarmed or worried over what the small minds do. It is sure that with all they do they will not, in their frail power, be able to stem the tide of the coming day.
"My imprisonment is but a drop in the big bucket of time. It is one of those incidents that must occur to point the way to human salvation. I gather greater strength and knowledge by all that is happening, so why be downhearted?
"The little minds with whom those who seek my liberty confer and to whom they appeal can see no farther than their noses. They have no vision of humanity and world problems. Little in politics, so are they little in mind. They are small enough to think that imprisonment can crush the urge of men who found themselves in the plan of cosmic law."
No greater testimony to the high regard in which the Hon. Marcus Garvey is held by his myriad followers could be found than in their splendidly persistent fight for his pardon without deportation, unless it be their great devotion to the prosecution of THE CAUSE in his absence. No week passes but that telegrams and letters pour into the White House praying President Coolidge to exercise executive clemency. The third appli tion by Marcus Garvey for a pardon is now in the hands of the Chief Executive, supported by a recommendation for his immediate release, signed by nine of the twelve jurors who returned the verdict that sent him to prison. Two jurors could not be located, while the remaining one said he would have to consult Mr. Mattuck, the assistant district attorney who conducted the prosecution and who was amazingly severe on Mr. Garvey both during and after his trial. This juror eventually declined to sign, stating he was so instructed by Mr. Mattuck.
Everything has been done that could be done to convince the authorities at Washington that public opinion, both white and black, is overwhelmingly on the side of the immediate release of Mr. Garvey. All now lies with Mr. Coolidge: And we venture to express the belief that he will not disappoint or ignore so large a part of the citizenry, which held him in such high esteem as to bestow upon him the greatest gift it was theirs to bestow.

Announces Illness of Dr. J. G. St. Clair Drake, Inter-
national Organizer, and Resignation of

NEW YORK. LIBERTY HALL. Sunday Night. April 24—
‘Those who scek to discourage and dishearten the Garvey hosts may
well seek other employment. For they are doomed to be disap-
pointed and denied. The more the enemy knocks, the closer do the
defenders of the faith crowd together, presenting a solid front to
the cnemy which none may pass. At least. such was the impression
that even the casual observer might have gained on looking in on
Liberty Hall tonight, on the occasion of the weekly mass mecting
of the New York local.
Hon. Fred .A. ‘Toote, acting President-General, in businesslike
mood, tired but carnest, occupied the chair. There were no officers
supporting him, for, as he announced, Hon. Dr. J. G. St. Clair Drake
was on the sick list in Philadelphia; Hon. F. Levi Lord was out on
tour: so were Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis and Madame M. L. T.
De Mena, while Hon. W. A, Wallace, Secretary-General, had ten-
dered his resignation, to take effect in a couple of weeks. The last
named was away also on tour, at the conclusion of which his official
connection with the organization will terminate.

NEGRO HEALTH CONDITION IS A NATIONAL praying vhat ne
the bem ff the
RATHER THAN RACIAL QUESTION | the Tee Sak
| CITE 150 outstanding physicians of the Negro race from
‘O all parts of the country attended the recent annual meet
j ing of the John A, Andrew Clinical Society, which is part
| or the Tuskegee Institute, and they quite unanimously agreed that
the health of the Negro people is National rather than a racial
question, and the readers of The Negro World will agree with
them. Disgase draws nu color line and establishes no color bars;
it visits the rich and the poor, the high and the low, as the case
j may be: And this is as true of endemic as of epidemic diseases
Disease is disease, however it is differentiated. The main thing
about it is that it is no respecter of race or color. Like a prairie
fire it eats up everything in its way. Those who are affected by
it, therefore, are wise when they regard and treat disease as a
| common enemy. to be met and combatted as such. Dr. Agernon
i B. Jackson, President of the Clinic and Director of the Department
jof Public Health of Howard University, at Washington, stated
the views of the members, which will find general acceptance, in
the following:
“Public health must always remain the business of National,
State and Municipal Government and the officials chosen to
carry out their laws. However desirous and anxious voluntaty
organizations and groups may be to put inte operation a large
health program, they can get but slight success- without de- -
manding and obtaining a scientific yet heart interest from
those public officials choven by authority to do the job.
‘“No one will rejoice more than myself if some one will |
prove my next statement is incorrect. I do not believe that
there is in all America a State, county, city or town which is
doing its full or even its balf duty in attempting to relieve the
health conditions among its colored citizens, |
“This policy of neglect and indifference is unscientific, in-
human, unsound, unsanitary and un-American. Yet it exists
everywhere because no large movement by Negroes has en-
dured and persisted long enough td humanize their activities
and set the machinery to work. The addition of trained
Negro personnel to health departments will do much to solve
this problem.”
Every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association
is vitally concerned about this question of health, which depends
so largely on proper housing, sanitation and clinical control and
regulation, because Negroes everywhere live in segregated districts,
for the most part, in all of the large cities, and arc discriminated |
against by the city fathers in the matters of paving, lighting and
water. for the streets as well as for the housings. We have been|
startled and appalled at the ruinous conditions of health that}
prevail in many large cities, especially in the Suuth, and the attitude |
of the city fathers, who appeared to assume that the health con-
ditions of the Negro was none of their business. when as a matter !
of course it should be their first business, as disearen oi all sorts’
germinate in and are distributed always from the slum districts of
cities and towns, whether the dwellers of them are of the black *
or the white race. . ‘
It is fortunate for the Negro people that they are developing
1 strong body of physicians. who have much race pride and public
pirit, and are beginning to exercise a large and helpfui influence |
n securing for the race better living conditions that make for
\ealth in every large community, and they are gaining the sympathy
nd support of white physicians and those who have the admin-
stration of public affairs. Health Week has become an established
act in the life of the Negro people, and it should grow every year,
vith the constant work of local medical associations of our own |
or its main support and encouragement. After all, there is no help |
ke seli-help. If we show no disposition to help ourselves others
vill not be called upon to help us. And no man, no group of people, |
ve to themselves alone. In every community each member is a
elper or hinderer, a source of strength or of weakness. And it is
he first duty of parents to look after and safeguard the health of
heir children. They do not always do it, and neglect their own
ealth as well. They should not so do. |

PRESIDENT-GENERAL GARVEY’S ILLNESS
HE members of the Universal Negro Improvement. .Asso-
I sociation were greatly grieved to learn by the last issue
of The Negro World that President-General Marcus
Garvey was sick with la grippe and asthma. Under the most
favorable conditions these complaints are very treacherous and
difficult to deal with: in the prison conditions forced upon our
President-General they are vastly more so.
We are told that “the prayers of the righteous availeth much.”
Let us pray without ceasing that President-General Garvey may
soon be restored to his normal health, and that he may soon be
released from confinement. which makes so strongly for impair-
ment of the most healthy body, and returned to the work and the
people that so much miss and need his physical presence among
them. |
_ AFRICAN NEGROES NEED PRACTICAL |
» EDUCATION |
N the fact of it, many may ask, what is practical education?
O That is a reasonable question. Many thinkers dealing with
it would give many answers, most of them differing the
one from the other. And here is some explanation of the mystery
of man, which is the greatest mystery with which we have to deal,
although the mystery oi God has been placed in the forefront in
all ages of which we have record, and for purposes of confusion,
because we can come at the mystery of God not at all unless we
first solve the mystery of man, “in the image” of whom, He said
m the beginning, “Ict us make man, in our own image, male and
iemate.” ‘The story is told of the philosopher Diogenes, that he
went about the streets of Syracuse With a lighted lantern, When
a neighbor asked him what he was hunting for he said he was
hunting for “an honest man.” ‘The times were so corrupt that
his neighbor did not stop to discuss the matter, but he would have
stumped the philosopher if he had tuld him to search himself, as
he would not find an honest man among his neighbors unless he
found him in himself. That ix to say, “Know thyself." How
many of us do? Most of us imagine that we do, and are effectually
biinded by our ignorance, and are constantly going farther astray |
by seeking elsewhere for what we desire and have within us, oF
in our homes.
Education may be detined as practical when it teaches a person
how to make the most of his talents in building a foundation for
himseli and for his family, and for the people of the times in which
he lives. Striving to do this along the lines of least resistence
often defeats its purpose, as accumpliskment, perfection and
supremest enjoyment in what has been gained comes only by
ceaseless aspiration and striving for what we desire. We never
properly appreciate what we get witheut effort, what comes to us
as an inheritance or in indirect ways. It is the way of the world,
but few understand and never cease to complain of the eppesition
and difficulties they have to overcome, instead of striving rent
jessly and courageuusly to overcome and to triumph, Super-men |
in our times, like Sun Vat Sen, Mahatma Gandhi, Beaite. Musselini
and Marcus Garvey, first get the vision and then master the educs-
tion they need to accomplish their purposes. And men like these
succeed where they seem to fail. ‘They sow the seed but du not |)
always live long enough te enjoy the fruiitage: they reach the |
Jordan, as’ Moses did, but they do not always pass over te the |
other side.
What the Negro needs everywhere is practical education, and the |,
Universal Negro Ienprovement Association has planned to give him |:
such an education at the Universal Liberty University on the James j|
River—an education that will teach him to know himseli and to {
properly evaluate his social, civil and economic resources. ‘The i!
first thing is to teach him te know himself and his resources. When |
he knows these all other things will come easy to him, Before |?
the World War the Germans were the most highly educated and |!

the arts and sciences, which they applied as weil tu philosophy ;!
as to productive industry. If they overreached themselves in the \

Greece and Rome, who went out beyond themselves to find what |?

* . (From the Rand Deily Mail) .
In view of the Government's denial of what were described in the
Assembly as “exaggerated reports” in the press concerning the ter-
rible plight of the natives in the Pietersburg area owing to the
drought, the various religious bodics in the territory have issued a
joint statement on the subject published in the “Rand Daily Mail.”
porition Je even more serious than th
public have been made awaro of D3
-he newspapers, Several deaths fron
starvation are actually vouched for
and it {a stated that the Bochum Hos.
pitel ie crowded with patients, moa
of whom are suffering from the effect:

The statement fa as followe:--
We, the undersigned, members o!
various religious Dodies working as
missionaries In tho Pteteraburg dis-
trlet of the Northern Transvaal, here-
ty desire to bring before the Govern-
nent and public such facta and tn-
formation ax have come to our direc:
knowledge with regard to the effect
of the drowght upon the native pto-
ples among whom wo work.
We are anxious not 10 over-entl-
mate the ettiousness of the position
ané, while fully aware that in #lx
months’ time the plight of the native
will be much worse than it in now,
we are at the same time convinced
that the position is such now ar
irgently to demand the inatitutton of
rélief measures on the part of the
Government.
Matements made from time to time
by Teseponsibie Authorities to tho ef-
fect that there are stilt cattle in the
lotationa and ablebodied men who
will not go to work apply onty to cer-
tain places. There arc a few cattle
let—very few compared with the
numbers exinting a year ago—but they
ure not public property: nor are they
at the disposal of the starving indi-
vidual Ablebodied men are finding
It extremely dimicult to xet work, and
thone who are not to be described ax
really able-bodied are in many casex
turned away If they try ty Ret taken
cn in the mines.
We are at a lose to understand the
reply of the Prime Minister to Mr.
Payn given in the Houne of Assembly
on Feb. 18 to the effect that:
(1) There te no actual starvation

arcaa of the Tranxyaal.
(2) The condition of the native: |

thorities for relief: and the native in|
gencral {a not aware that there Is any
oficial from Whom he can obtain re-
Net.
Also, We would like to ask on what
detailed inventigation, 1¢ any, Gentral
Hertzox bares his statements?
We aro convinced that statements |
such as these serve only to Jull the;
public into a comfortable fecling that

of two native children who scratched

Black Queen of Beauty, thou hast given color te the world!
frog women thou art royal and the fairest!
Lite the brightest of jewels in the regal disdent,
Shin’st thou Goddess of Africa, Nature's purest Emblem!
Black men worthip at thy virginal shrine of truest love,
Because in thine eyes are virtue’s steady antl holy mesk,
As we see in no other, clothed in silk or fine linen,
From Ancient Venus, the Goddess, to mythical Helen.
When Africa stood at the head of the elder nations,
The gods used to travel from foreign lands to look at thee;
On couch of costly Eastern materials, all perfumed,
Reclinest thou, as in thy path fluw'rs were strewa—sweetest that
bloomed.
Thy transcendent, marvellous beauty made the whole world mad,
Bringing Solomon to tears as he vitwed thy cometiness;
Anthony and the younger Caesars wept at thy royal feet,
Preferring death than to leave thy presence, their foes to meet.
You, in all ages, have attracted the adoring world,
And caused many a bloody banner to be unfurled;
You have sat upon exalted and lofty eminence,
To see a world fight in your ancient African defense.
Today you have been dethroned, through the weakness of your men,
Whiten frenzy, those who of yure craved your smiles and your
and—
Those who were all monsters and could not with love approach
you—
Have insulted your pride and now attack yBur good virtue.
Because of disunion you became mother of the world, |
Giving tinge of robust color to five continents,
Making a greater world of millions of colored races,
Whose claim to beauty is reflected through our black faces.
From the handsome Indian to the European brunette,
There is a claim jor that credit of their sunny beauty
That no onc can c’er take from thee, O Queen of all women,
Who hast borne trials and troubles of racial burden.
Once more we shall, in Africa, fight and conquer for you, |
Restoring the pearly crown that proud Queen Sheba did wear:
Yea, it may mean blood, it may mean death; but atill we shall fight,
Bearing our banners to Vict'ry, men of Afric’s might.
Superior Angels look like you in Heaven above,
For thou art fairest. queen of the seasons, queen of our love;
No condition shall make us ever in life desert thee,
Sweet Goddess of the evergreen land and placid bluc sea.

FLOOD DISASTER IN SOUTH HITS NEGROES HARD
Thousands of Negroes Destitute and Homeless—Suffering Certain to Be Protracted Unless Liberal Help from Unaffected Sections is Forthcoming
The reports from the stricken regions in Mississippi are strikingly bare as they relate to Negroes, but judging from brief references that have been seen in the lengthy reports which appear daily in the newspapers, Negroes form a very large percentage of the sufferers.
The following news items, in which the plight of Negroes is referred to are called from the New York dialect:
GREENVILLE, Miss., April 24.—Another 1,000 refugees were taken from Greenville today to Vickburg on the steamer Barrett. Included in this number were 500 white women and children. This number will be replaced, however, by another thousand who are being brought here from Lake Lee, twelve miles south of here.
Six thousand Negroes are encamped on the levee and 4,000 white people are quartered in hotels and other buildings in this flooded city. Kitchens have been erected on the concrete wharf. Food enough for the whole population is reported on route to the city, and Red Cross officials stated that tents to house every one would be erected by tomorrow.
The plan now is to erect a tented city on the levee, which is twenty feet wide. The city will extend for a distance of the a miles or more.
Of the 10,000 persons who are planning to remain here throughout the period of the flood, 6,000 are Negroes. It was evident to the authorities that many citizens were reluctant to leave their homes and business and preferred to take their chances in the flooded city. Long lines of Negroes with their sleeves rolled up passed by health officers on the levee all day to receive typhoid serum. The serum was dropped on the roof of the courthouse from an airplane believed to have come from Memphis or Jackson. Sandwiches also

Negro Refugees
Cheerful and Helpful
Negroes predominate among the refugees, and their placid optimism, despite the loss of all possessions, together with obedience and willingness to help in the care of refugee camp-aided relief workers greatly, it was said.
Rescue work in the northern flood area is being pushed by the Coast Guard, which today ordered a relief party, consisting of the entire personnel at Louville, to proceed to Calio to aid in this task. More than 2,000 refugees have been taken out by the Coast Guard cutter Kankakee.
Huge Losses Estimated
Reports to the Red Cross from every part of the flood area all agree that thousands and thousands of farmers have lost practically everything they had except the land itself. Horses, mules, cows, hogs have been drowned by the hundreds of thousands read reports received by Director Baker of the Red Cross. The carcasses are floating everywhere and constitute a menace to health of the first magnitude. It will probably be a month or six weeks before this phase of the problem can be solved, and solved it must be, says Mr. Baker, if the health of those in the stricken areas is to be safeguarded.
Monaca of Epidemics
"Our greatest menace," says Director Baker this afternoon, "is typhoid fever, and the next more grave problem will be measles, scarlet fever and enteric disorders. We are already moving to meet this phase of the problem and the government is rushing all its available supply of typhoid serum to us. No time is to be lost in inoculating old and young in every part of the flood zone in which the danger of pestilence is apparent.
"America has never faced a more pathetic situation than the plight of these thousands upon thousands of little fariners. Without number, almost, they are men, and in some instances women, who have lost their mules, their hogs, their poultry and their cows, and this does not take into consideration their homes, their crops and their household effects.
"In instances that will probably total into the thousands it will be too late when the waters have needed for these people to make a crop, and even if it were possible they will be unable to do so because they will be without the stock or the seed grains or cotton which they must have if a crop is to

The cotton loss will go into the millions of dollars, as the flood zones include the very finest cotton in the Southern States. There may be a chance to replant in some sections such as the valley of the Arkansas River, which just now is on a rampage all the way from Fort Smith on the Oklahoma line to the Mississippi, and the same is true in parts of Mississippi, Louisiana and Eastern Arkansas, but no matter what happens, a crop such as is grown under normal conditions will be, say those who know this country, impossible this year.
The agricultural loss may go as high as $500,000,000, and there are some who estimate even higher. But this will not be the only loss of gigantic proportions due to the record breaking flood. The lumber industry, or instance, will suffer a loss running into the millions, the Hardwood Manufacturers' Association of Memphis estimated, in a statement issued last night listing 124 large hardwood mills that have been flooded out of business and with more expected to go under before the flood is many more days old.
Roland Hayes Has Remarkable Reception At Closing Recital
Roland Hayes, famous American Negro tenor, sang his night in Carnegie Hall to a capacity house a program of classic, modern and Negro folk music, to which he brought all the resources of natural talent and acquired art which have won him the admiration of music lovers the world over. The unique gifts of this artist in the interpretation of music covering a wide range of style and period have through his frequent appearances in this city become well known to the concert-going public. All these characteristics were in evidence last night. The refinement of style, the debate restraint and the clear diction, coupled with emotional fervor and, in the spirituals, a naïve colored with the poignant yearning of his race.
Mr. Haves introduced his program with three songs of the 17th and 18th centuries, J. W. Francis's "Sei Nar Still," Lulla's "Charmants Ruisseaux," and Caccini's "Amarillit," to which he brought his familiar qualities of delicate nuance and sense of melodic line. It may indeed be said that in the large auditorium some of the numbers suffered somewhat from an over-retirement of style, with resultant loss of vocal resonance and carrying power, and even occasional huskiness of tone. The second group was devoted to three Schuhert leder, "Schwanengeang," "Der Jungling an der Quelle," which was repeated, and "Die Liebe hat gelogen;" also Schumann's "Der Nussbaum" and "Ich hab in Traum gewinet." To this group he added as encore a setting of Paul Laurence Dunker's "Dawn."
George Henschels "Morning Hymn," sung with admirable legato and sustained tone; Jensen's "Murmuring Zephyr," raised from its inherent sentimentality by the restrained art of the singer; Warren Story's Smith's "A Caravan From China Comes," filled with exotic warmth and atmosphere; and Roger Quilter's Landlar "Love Philosophy," made up the following group, which was followed by four spirituals, including the singers' own arrangement of "Deep River." The audience was reluctant to leave and Mr. Hayes added several encores. William Lawrence, who has often appeared with Mr. Hayes, provided piano accompaniments of impeccable taste and musical understanding. -- New York Times.

CONFIDENCE THE KEY TO PROGRESS. SAYS DR. DRAKE
International Organizer In Rousing Address to Washington, D.C., Division Scores Negroes for Economic Apathy.
The following address was delivered recently by the Honorable J. G. St. Chair Drake at the Y. M. C. A. Auditorium in Washington, D. C., at a large mass meeting held under the auspices of the Washington Division, Universal Negro Improvement Association:
Since it is true that no chain is stronger than its weakest link, so it is true that no nation is stronger than the weakest of its local communities, and, by the same rule, the world is no stronger than the weakest of its nations. The thing that counts most is unity. This the Negro race lacks. The yellow and white races are both more united than the Negro race. We are more scattered, not only from a geographical standpoint but from a moral viewpoint. There are 13,000,000 Jews all over the world, yet Jews run the money markets of the world. Take, for instance, not long ago there was a large theatre that catered only to Gentlez. No Jews or Negroes were allowed. One night three Jews bought tickets to the theatre. On their way in the usher stepped them and told them that no Jews were allowed.
The next morning the Jews bought the theatre for two million dollars. That same night, replacing the Gentile ticket seller, was a Jewess, and when the show opened, with the assembling of the crowd, consisting mostly if not entirely of Gentiles, it was announced, to the surprise of all, that no Gentiles were admitted. In this instance the Jew did not go to court to settle his equal rights, as a delegation of Negroes did the other day by going to the President to advocate civil rights. The Jew put over the deal by unity. We are like sheep without a shepherd. Racial consciousness has made the Jew. If you insult one Jew you have insulted all. Insult one Negro and you haven't insulted anybody.
I was in Vicksburg, Mississippi, not long ago, and a colored man took me to the place where I was stopping. On my way there I asked him how the colored people got along with the white people. He replied that he had been there thirteen years, running on the street, and nobody ever insulted him. He said that all you had to do was to know your place, and nobody would bother you. I asked him his place and he was dumfounded. He realized that his place was that of a sent-slave.
Negro Feels Inferior
The race has been discussing effects too long. They must study fundamentals. There is a reason why Negroes are separated and divided. It is because of conditions that have existed for nearly 400 years in this very land of ours. The Negro has been taunted, in the first place, that he is an inferior element. That has been his doctrine. He has been taught a psychology foreign to himself. Negroes feel that if they were white they could get along a great deal better. I have never seen the time yet that I wanted to be anything but a black man, and today, more than ever, the Negro ought to be proud of himself.
Why you are the coming people. The Negro race is the coming race.
The white man has given me ground for pessimism. Civilization has revolved back to its creation. The white man is destined for destruction because he has lost his moral virtue. The white man has committed more moral scandal among its social circles and the elite than Africa has. When you think of an episode like the bath tub, Fatty Arbuckle, Peaches Browning, it gives you an idea of what the white man's civilization has come to. The black man is coming back to build another civilization, purer than the one under which he now lives. But how is he going to do it? You can be nationally and internationally strong, as you are locally strong. We divide from each other in our own localities. We are not united because we are too selfish.
It is characteristic of colored people to be like the crab, that is, if I cannot get out, you will not get out. If I cannot establish a grocery store, no Negro shall establish one. I watched the Jews and Italians in Pittsburgh and other large cities. A Jew will buy a house and live in the basement. He will rent out the rest of the house to anybody who wants it. The other Jews will help him and, in the end, everyone has his own house. When a Negro buys a home other Negroes knock him. The thing we need most is the spirit of co-operation in our local communities. No, we sit around and dream and complain. I have noticed in churches when people get up to give their testimonials that they invariably say something about coming up the rough side of the mountain. Has anybody ever come up on the smooth side? Obstacles are meant to help and not to hinder us; if we

give up we are not going to accom-
plish anything.
We need to put over some local proposition. You cannot help somebody else without helping yourselves. It is because of the wrong psychology taught us that we are separated and divided. A Negro studies for a day. A white man studies for thousands of years. A white man says, "I have had a hard time, but my children will not have the experience that I had." He prepares to make it possible for the boys and girls of his own race to succeed. Negroes say, "Well, I had it hard in my day and you are not better than I am." Negroes have been taught to watch each other ever since slavery, and to report to the white man every morning. The black man is still reporting to the white man every morning. It has been the cause of numerous lynching: in the South. White psychology must give away and a racial psychology must take hold of us before we can do much as a race. Color of the face does not argue inferiority of race. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. There is as much power in the arm of a black man as there is in the arm of a white man.
"Our people have misconstrued the aim of the U. N. L. A. Marcus Garvey has done more to consolidate the race in the past eight years than has been done since the existence of the Negro. The U. N. L. A. has brought us all back to the conclusion that we are all one common stock from one common lineage, and that stock is African. What race ever hated their Fatherland? The Jew teaches his children that Palestine is the most beautiful place on the earth, and that some day they will return to their Fatherland. The Irish do not despise Ireland. They polish with pride to the Emerald Island. Turn your eyes to the British. They are proud of their Fatherland but the Negro. The Negro desplays his Fatherland. Africa is the largest and richest continent of the world, yet Negroes desplays it. They refer to it as a dark continent.
la Africa Dark?
In what respect is Africa darker than any other country? Can you teachess of geography and what not help me? The thing that makes a country bright is the moral virtue of its inhabitants. The moral virtue and character of a country stand out impossibly. Negroes do not make research. They talk too much and investigate too little. We have not learned to keep records. We have not paid any attention to the statistical records in connection with our race. The white man has statistics, and in them he states that Africa had, in seven years, less mutants and homi-

We wish to call your attention to the Combination Puncture Proof Tire, which we believe to be the greatest invention of the age on automobile tires, Samuel R. Ingram, Inventor. They have been demonstrated before thousands of people by an automobile equipped with these tires running over malls driven in a board five inches apart and they proved one hundred percent. The first tires were put on the market in September, 1926.
We also wish to call your attention to the great history of America. We are the first Negroes in America to incorporate a Tire Company' and make automobile tires. The inventor refused $250,000 for this invention before a tire was made, but he dedicated it to the race and it cannot be sold.
We believe that all of our people who want to see factories in various states of the Union employing our girls and boys and manufacturing automobile tires, will help us to do this by subscribing for at least one share of stock at once. Do not say, "I could have bought the Company's Proof Tire Co. as $550 per share," but say, "I did buy it." An ounce

We should rise up and demand our rights and go ahead and fight to conserve them. There are 400,000,000 of us. Isn't America the mother of the earth? In 1620, when the first Americans landed at Plymouth, they didn't have anything with which to fight the Indians, but they fought with their fists until someone was good enough to supply them with ammunition. Negroes wait for God to bring a government for them.
Negroes Need Confidence
In Liberia, young Firestone has a concession on 150 acres for ninety-nine years. He said that lie found smarter Negroes in Liberia than he did white people in the United States. What the Negro needs is confidence in himself and to follow his own race leaders. Let us join with the other races of the earth and do what they are doing. We should, like them, rise up and demand our homeland, "Africa for the Africans, at home and abroad." Let us go forward in this much desired and worthy work in the name and strength of God.

HAVE YOUR CHILDREN TRAINED ALONG RACE LINES
OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey
ACQUIT YOURSELVES LIKE MEN!
HUMANITY of color is gradually emerging from the backwardness of ages, and carefully preparing for the great tasks incidental to progress. Because of the handicaps and repression by the white race, the obstacles are multiplied and the difficulties that are placed in the way of the advance of color, hamper its progress. But the inner urge for liberty is the all-sustaining force that surmounts obstacles and breaks down barriers.
It is folly to expect that the white race will voluntarily change its cruel attitude toward the darker races. Any appeal to their conscience or religious protestations is a waste of time. Materialism is the god they adore, to which they sacrifice precious lives, and the race that is silly enough to think it can fight materialism with spiritualism, is doomed to extermination. White people believe that the basis of individual and racial greatness lies in the acquisition of money, lands, and modern implements of protection. It matters not how it is acquired, as long as you have it you are rated a great man, a powerful nation, a superior race. If, perchance you do not keep up with the manufacture of modern implements of warfare and protection, you are disrated, and your booty becomes the prev of others.
The darker peoples have been slow in discovering this standard, because their pale-faced brother's preachments are altogether different to his line of conduct. He says "Love thy neighbor as thyself," yet he is constantly and systematically robbing his neighbor, and would crush the life out of him if he does not throw his hands up. The powerful nations of the world are in truth a gang of international free-booters; they have grown wealthy from stealing other men's goods and the eighth commandment is applicable only to those who are unable to grab or protect their grab. It is purely a question of do as I say, but not as I do.
The duty of the oppressed, therefore, is to know the mind of the oppressor, and pay him back in his own coin. The Negro cannot afford to demonstrate the "brotherhood of man" on earth, until he has extricated himself from slavery and oppression. He has spent years trying this method and failed. Prayers, petitions, appeals only evoke the contempt of the white race, who say inwardly, "Go travel the way I came, and light your way up to the top." No man should expect something for nothing, not in this age, the beggar is not respected; why, therefore, should we be a race of beggars?
The road to liberty is a rocky one, and that is why we need faith in ourselves and grim determination. Some Negroes say they are willing to join the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but they are waiting until all the troubles are over, as they don't want to go to jail, and they don't want to be ostracized by some white folks. Well, they have a long wait ahead of them. They are of the type that come in when all the work is over, and join the shouting and say, "Look what we have done."
Let us be serious with ourselves and about our future, and realize this, that the U. N. L. A. or any liberation or reform movement is bound to have troubles, because the oppressor is not going to sit quietly and allow his vicious system, out of which he grows fat, overthrown. He is bound to fight back, and in the most subtle manner. That is why leaders are framed up and imprisoned: organization officials bribed, and made to betray their trust; spies planted within the ranks and members are harassed. These opposition tactics should be expected, and the proper spirit maintained to offset them. When it is realized how precious is the goal, surely it is worth struggling for, sacrificing for and dying for, if needs be. Don't be a loafer, fall in line with the brave workers for African Nationalism, and acquit yourselves like men.

Lost Bread Recipe Found in Spain
MALAGA, Spain, March 31. "lost bread" has been rediscovered in the recipes of an old monastery and now is all the rage as a table delicacy. It is a sort of filtrer with a cinnamon flavor. The old recipe is as follows: Cut ordinary white bread into fingers and pour over them the yolk of one egg beaten up in a glass of Malaga wine. Dip the soaked strips in beaten eggs and fry to a golden brown in deep boiling lard. Drain
well and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
Women Taxed According To Length of Skirts
The Mayor of Almendralco, Spain is taxing all women according to the length of their skirts. A damsel showing only her ankle pass the minimum while those who wish to display calves or knees must pay more. No increase in the length of dresses has been noted and the town's coffers are filling.

Scottish Councillors Refuse To Dine With King George
Elaborate Ceremonies Waste of Money, They Assert
GLASGOW.—The Socialist Councillors of Glasgow steadfastly refuse to eat with the King. And now the Labor Councillors holding official positions also have decided to join the Socialists and not break bread with King George when he comes here on July 12 to dedicate the Clyde Bridge, although it was built by trade unionists.
The Socialist members of the Town Council object to the elaborate ceremonies connected with the King's visit, owing to the expenditure of public money for what they consider to be uncleasant purposes. A luncheon is to be held after the inauguration of the bridge, but when the question came up again before the Council, the Socialists, by a vote of 25 to 11, reaffirmed their decision that no member of the Socialist group should serve on the Corporation Arrangement Committee nor participate in any function associated with the royal visit.
When news of the Socialists' vote reached London, the King's advisers urged him to abandon the trip, but he said that he had planned to attend and that he was going to carry out his plans, regardless of the stand of the Socialists and the attitude of his advisers. Queen Mary will accompany him.
David Mason, Lord Provost, has appealed in vain for the Socialists to withdraw their ban. Accordingly, it is expected that he will arrange the luncheon as a port of private affair.
The action of the Socialists recalls a similar incident a few years ago, when David Kirkwood, John Wheatley, Thomas Kerr and Baillie Dolan declined special invitations to meet the Prince of Wales at a dinner at Blythewood House. Opposition of this nature also developed on the occasion of visits of Princess Mary and the Duke of York to Glasgow.
Nerve System Is Seat of Disease. Professor Claims
LENINGRAD.—Professor Speransky who works in the laboratory of Academician Pavloff, has made an important discovery referring to the study of the causes of diseases of the organism. He introduced vaccines -anti-diphtheritic and anti-scarlet fever- into the brain of a sick organism, at the same time taking spinal liquid from the vertebral column. After performing experiments on animals, Professor Speransky inoculated into the brain of children suffering from a heavy form of scarlet fever anti-scarlatina vaccine in doses of from four to eight granules. These children recovered.
Professor Speransky has come to the conclusion that the disease infecting the organism is always seated in the central nervous system. The admixture of local organs—lung, throat, stomach—is only the external manifestation of the nervous disease. Therefore the struggle against any disease must be directed into the domain of the nervous system and the brain.
Birth Rate Falling
In Great Britain
LONDON, April 5.—Fewer babies are being born in England, according to the latest statistical returns, but those that are born are healthier.
Birth statistics for the last quarter of 1926 show that 164,499 children were born during the quarter, a decrease of 10,413 over the previous quarter, and the lowest ever recorded except for the fourth quarter of 1917. The latest figure works out at a birth rate of 16.7 per 1,000 population.
Infant mortality during the quarter was 70 per 1,000 registered births which was 9 per 1,000 below the average of the ten preceding fourth quarters. Further analysis of the statistics during the quarter show that 1,044 males were born to every 1,000 females.
THE SOULS OF BLACK AND WHITE
Aquah Laluah in the Atlantic Monthly
The souls of black and white were made
By the selfsame God of the selfsame shade.
God made both pure, and He left one white;
God laughed over the other, and wrapped it in night.
Kald He, "I've a flower, and none can unfold it;
I've a breath of great mystery, nothing can hold it.
Spirit so illusive the wind cannot away it.
A force of such might even death cannot slay it."
But so that He might conceal its glow
He wrapped it in darkness, that men might not know.
Oh, the wonderful souls of both black and white
Were made by one God, of one sod, on one night.
NOTES OF INTEREST
What Lack of Preparation Means
"China shows the world what lack of preparation means. The little United States destroyer, Ford, fired on by a Chinese fort, easily "silenced that fort," putting it out of commission. Nobody hurt on the Ford, many hurt in the fort, probably, "but they were Chinamen." If China's revolutionists had three or four submarines, with torpedo tubes, and a dozen bombs dropping flying machines, there wouldn't be an American, European or Japanese warship in Chinese waters. Or if there were, it would be their turn to be "silenced."—Arthur Brishane.
Tell It. Brother!
There was a time when the average Negro would not reent in insult. The poison of slavery had sapped his marhood. He suffered from a real inferiority complex. The fear that was bred in the soul of his ancestors by the swish of a million lashes wielded by the slave drivers was transmitted to him. But the Negro is no longer the meek and humble individual of yore. Like the Chinaman he has developed guts. Like the Chinaman his exploiters have forced him to organize and fight back. When the Negroes organize their tremendous collective power the white morons in the south will stop lynching them and the white morons in the north will stop hurling insults at them.--T. J. O'Flaherty.
Hunting Oil With Dynamite
"By the new method, which is scientific and accurate, the prospector takes dynamite and detonates it on the surface of the ground. The earth shock created is registered on seismographs placed certain distances away. In the Gulf Coast Region oil is generally found under salt dome structures located beneath the surface and it is the aim of the prospector, by means of the dynamite and seismograph, to locate these salt domes. "This is possible because the difference in density between the salt dome and the overlying alluvial deposits is great enough to refract the shock waves when they strike the denser substance at the moment of the dynamite blast. The results recorded by the seismographs reveal the denser underlying structure and indicate accurately just where the dome is."—The Hercules Mixer.
Light, Science, Education
Fortunately for the world, the sources of light can never be destroyed. The printing press furnishes the scorching light of publicity. Mean-beat, corruption, immorality, political dishonesty, are withered by it. The sun, scientists tell us, has strength enough to last hundreds of millions of years more, and will continue to supply our earth with the light that gives life and health and destroys disease.
The public school, greatest institution established on earth by the wisdom of man for the benefit of the human race, will continue to spread the light of knowledge, making of the educated mind a light unto itself.
The light of science, separating truth from falsehood, making superstition ridiculous, wiping out childish fears, supplying men's physical needs, destroying their superstitious enemies, pushes civilization steadily forward.—New York American.

Why a Double Standard of Morality?
By MRG WALTER FERGUSON
An silent reformer points to the decadence of the times with this statement: "A loose girl of the nineteen was shunned. Today unlucky women often become quite respectable members of society."
And why not? Are we to build a barrier between good and bad women and not between good and bad men?
Men are generally grouped into various classes with regard to their wickedness. Bad men may be thieves or larks or murderers. Bad women are always those who have lost their virtue. Two entirely different constructions upon the same word.
The time never was when a man could not live a loose life and get by with it. Even though his morals are coal black where women are concerned, if he have money and a charming personality he is welcomed into the most exclusive of homes. Prominent men do not shun him. Good men do not snul him. Neither his business nor his social status is undermined.
This being the case, why discriminate against women? It is not a sign of the decadence of the times that we look with more lenency upon a woman who has had an unfortunate past. It is proof that we are improving.
It is unfair to have two different standards for women and men. The very fact that the Magdalens of this world can sometimes climb the awful mountain of respectability is one of the best evidences of our moral growth.
Whether, with women becoming less careful of their conduct, the whole moral structure of society may be weakened is neither here nor there. If both men and women cannot be judged by one standard of right and wrong, then we may as well admit that our social fabric is awry. The point is that there is no sense in having the women chaste if the men are going to be otherwise. You can never have a good world with one sex moral and the other immoral.
Obviously the thing to have done was to purify the men, making them as virtuous as those dames of the nineties. That being impossible there seems no good reason why almost any old kind of a woman may not become a respectable member of society—society being mostly composed of men who are far from apotexes.
Is It Contempt to Powder in Court?
What's this? A New York judge threatening to fine a woman ten dollars for contempt of court in that she powdered her face and used her lipstick in his august present? Surely this is judicial intolerance and old-fashioned carned to the limit. Where does this wearer of theermine live? Not in New York city, surely, else he would see women powdering their noses in subways, in elevators, in the theaters, at table in the restaurants, on the streets—all over, in short. The secrets of the toilet are everywhere as openly revealed as are the flappers' knees. Does not the judge realize that customs change? It is not merely that youth is having its fling and desire self-expression in cosmetics as well as other things at its own time and its own place; even the mothers and grandmothers use their powder puffs indiscriminately. Who shall cry hard taste and worse manners in the face of this new and truth-telling frankness? Manners have been outgrown, and so has concealment of the method of creating blush or pallor. Why not turn the tables on the judge by getting a permanent injunction from one of his brothers of the bench to keep him from interfering with the right of any citizen to beautify himself or herself in the courtroom or anywhere else.—The Nation.

GENERATE JOY IN
YOUR OWN HEART
The longer I live the more I realize that perfect happiness and the fullness of contentment can come only from within our elves. We must learn to generate it in our hearts and minds, and only then can we detach ourselves from the thousand and one smallnesses which mawa us "earthbound."
To seek, to love and to understand the beautiful comes very close to representing a complete formular for the achievement of happiness. And the desire and appreciation of lovely things must be awakened in the child almost from the cradle days. I have often thought that a little concentrated, effort on the part of mothers of little children would reap a harvest rich beyond comprehension.
It is strange, but true, that the appreciation of beauty must always be a silent one. A lovely unset, a throbbing chord of music, a beautiful poem—they can be shared with the multitude, provided they be shared silently. That is why the real lovers of art and music are deeply silent in the presence of the masters.
In Continental Europe you will find an easy familiarity with the classics. The stories of the greatest painters, composers, sculptors, literary geniuses are as well known over there as are the stories of Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt over here. There are thousands of anecdotes which keep alive the knowledge and the memories of our soldiers and our statesmen; but what do our children know of Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Cellini, Michael Angelo? Something in general, perhaps, but very little in particular. Yet here is a genius that knows no country, a greatness that belongs to the world.
Let's discard the notion that muslins are merely an "extra" to be tacked on to the educational fund. Tell your children some of the wonderful stories that will put into words the poetry of thought that flowed from the fingers of some immortal. There are wonderful phonograph records that will teach the children all that there is to know about exquisite harmony. But cover every step of the way with knowledge, so that your appreciation will be the appreciation of an understanding response. Do you know how Mendelssohn came to write the "Spring Song," Do you know that the Wedding March to whose strains you, too, have perhaps found the way to happiness was the finale of a delicate, pastoral, love affair which he witnessed and immortalized?
Have you pictured Beethoven at the piano, composing the Moonlight Sonata to a rapt audience of a little girl and her adoring father? Have you heard the tides beat in and out among the rocks at the Withe's Cave in Scotland, where Mendelssohn captured all the

2,000 London Girls "Missing" Every Year
Two thousand London girls are reported as "missing" every year, but only one in 500 remains untraced, and fewer than 10 per cent remain unfound for more than a fortnight. Special officials are always engaged on the task of tracing these missing girls, and it is said that 50 per cent should never have been reported as missing. Of the total of missing persons in the whole of England, fewer than two in every thousand are never heard of again.

THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.I.A. DIVISIONS
Dr. B. V. Ghayanee of Hindustan Gadar Party Holds Packed Audience Spellbound at Inter-Racial Meeting
The much hallowed mass meeting of the Oakland Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that was assembled at the new Colored Elks' Home, Sunday afternoon, April 17, was a record breaker for local attendance. Persons from every district in Oakland and suburban counties were attracted to this hall with the expectation of learning something of the attitude of other races similarly oppressed to the program of African nationalism. Passenger machines of every description surrounded the block facing the meeting place. They came on foot, street cars and otherwise to get the news.
Our meeting was intended to have included speakers from the Nationalist Party of China, but, on account of the scarcity of competent interpreters, our invited guest was unable to appear. A future meeting will be held, however, when the attitude of the Chinese Nationalist Party to the U. N. I. A. will be definitely explained. Many significant happenings have visited their appreciation of our interest and sympathy. The recent celebration of the capture of Shanghai was enthusiastically staged by the Oakland branch of the Kou-Min-Tang. The writer was extended a special invitation to attend this meeting, at which an opportunity was given to express the kinship of the African Nationalist movement, under the direction of Hon. Marcus Garvey, to the Chinese Nationalist movement under the spiritual direction of the late Dr. Sun Yat-Sen. At the conclusion of the brief address an invitation was again offered the writer to attend a banquet held that evening at the Pekin Cafe in further celebration of the victory. Incidentally, the invitation was accepted, and a very electable repast was served and heartily appreciated. Hospitality and courtesy are outstanding virtues of the Chinese people.
Notwithstanding the fact that the gathering present Sunday afternoon was hoping to see and hear a Chinese representative, the address delivered by Dr. Ghayahce was warmly applauded, and, judging from the comment and radiant expressions, proved satisfactory and sufficient. Dr. Ghayahce is a gifted speaker, having traveled extensively and studied the conditions of many racial groups. A glowing tribute was paid our leader, Hon. Marcus Garvey, and our emotions were stirred when the speaker lauded his incomparable worth to the Negro. ARTHUR S. GRAY, Reporter.

PITTSBURGH, PA.
A joyous Easter was the order of the day on Easter Sunday. Ideal weather prevailed and a large gathering of members and friends were on hand for the festivities. Liberty Hall was beautifully decorated for the occasion. A cross bearing the colors of the Red, Black and Green graced the postrum.

Mrs. Elizabeth White, Mrs. Carrie Medley (nurses) and Mr. William Formly of the trustee board made up the delegation.
The Juvenile class met with the superintendent, Mr. Edward Peterson, at 10 a.m. Several visitors were present and took a lively part in the discussions at 3 p.m. in a galaxy of songs, recitations and duets.

DETROIT, MICHIGAN
The meetings held under the auspices of the Detroit Division from April 5 to 8 for Sir Levi Lord, Chancellor and Executive Officer of the Parent Body, were favorably successful. Sir Levy well entertained his audience each night with his gripping oratorical ability and comprehensive logic. There were many prominent speakers who appeared on the program throughout the week, among whom were judge Charles Bowles and Attorney Morrils Sugar, both white, who spoke very favorably of the U. N. I. A.. its alms and accomplishments. We also had Dr. J. M. Gregory, Dr. Rainwater and Attorney J. Milton Vanlove as participants in the program.
The mass meeting on April 10 was an unusual one. Hon. J. A. Craigen, our executive secretary, who just returned from his visit through the Southern States and Nassau, British West Indies, and to see Hon. Marcus Garvey, filled the audience with new inspiration and courage to forge ahead when he related to them the appalling conditions prevalent in every section of this continent and what he saw and heard while on his tour. He stated that conditions are almost the same everywhere, as far as it affects the Negro. The program was very entertaining and educational. He spoke afternoon and evening. The other participants were, as usual, filled with enthusiasm.
April 17 was Easter Sunday. The president stated that since it was the day on which Christ arose from the dead he decided to make it an extraordinary affair for the Detroit Division. He especially arranged a program and called it "Garvey's Day." There was a rosette rally which was very successful. A splendid paper was read by Mrs. Mary L. Ford. Hon. J. A. Craigen, executive secretary, and Hon. L. D. V. Smith, the president, were the main speakers. Both were wonderful and filled with historical and educational information, and in conjunction therewith this day was also the formal opening of a strenuous membership campaign drive. Several new members were taken in. The Sunday school, under the supervision of the chaplain, Rev. R. L. Harrison, held religious services in the morning, which also had a large attendance, and the juveniles and Sunday school together carried out the night's program. There was much fun in the children finding hidden eggs. At the close of the meeting the president announced the sending of a special telegram to the President of the United States asking for Mr. Garvey's pardon without deportation.

The Moron Division celebrated the Eastertide by entertaining the public with a cantata held in the Niza Theatre on Easter Sunday, April 17, from 2 to 5 p.m. Everyone present enjoyed himself nicely while the choir entertained with some of the best anthems, songs, solos, etc, that could have been selected, and the children with their recitations. At 7:30 p.m. the crowd gathered at liberty Hall (which overflowed) for regular mass meeting, which was opened by the chaplain in the usual way. The chair was then turned over to the president, who delivered a most appropriate address, Addresses were then delivered by Messrs. B. Cole, R. E. Stewart, L. Macfarlane, R. C. Russell, E. Z. Island, A. Shaw and D. Powell, Mr. and Mrs. T. M. Huntley rendered a lovely duet entitled "Never Be Sad Nor Dependent," which received great applause. The choir also rendered many beautiful anthems.
The roof of the hall was almost shaken from the great applause when the president announced that a late report states that President Coolidge is giving the release of Marcus Garvey very serious consideration. At this point the president made his closing address and the meeting was brought to a close by the singing of the National Anthem.

Barber acted as master of ceremonies in his masterly way and also conducted the financial rally with his usual success. He introduced Mr. E. S. Seller, who made a attiring address of welcome, which was responded to by our loyal friend, Mr. W. H. Atkinson, Mrs. Ada Mae Pless then recited a very appropriate original poem. The master of ceremonies then introduced the speaker of the occasion, Hon. S. A. Haynes, who spoke very convincingly on "African Nationalism."
After the program, a nice repast,
prepared under the direction of Mrs.
Ada Pless, was served free. It was a
treat de Jause. Atogether, Division No.
123 had not witnessed such a turn-
out in many a day. We trust Mr.
Haynes will come again with a kind
message to help wake up the
Jonahs who are yet asleep on our
racial ship.

Los rigores de la prisión afectan la salud de nuestro presidente general
Los miembros de esta organización universalmente, se apesadumbrarán al tener conocimiento de la reciente enfermedad del Hom. Marcus Garvey, quien ha sido llevado al hospital de la prisión padeciendo de un ataque de gripe, combinado este con el asma de que ha sufrido por algún tiempo y que agfavan los rigores de la prisión.
Nuestra contribución a la civilización redundara en respeto y consideración a la raza—Razon para la constitución de una nacion africana—Continuemos la lucha emprendida en pro de nuestro enaltecimiento
Nuestro presidente general ha dejado demostrada su conformidad y ha sido un prisonero modelo. El nos ha presentado un esplendido ejemplo de paciencia y resignación, pero los miembros no deben pensar en que todo marcha a la medida del deseo, por el hecho de que su leader es un valeroso resignado.
El progreso del hombre es juzgado por lo que este haya realizado. El mundo juzga a las razas y a los individuos por sus hechos en el camino de dicho progreso. la civilización contemporanea es muy exasta; ella divide a las razas y a las naciones en dos grupos. El grupo progresista es altamente reconocido y respetado; el otro gupo es ignorado, odiado y en la mayoría de los casos repelido. En este grupo ocupa el negro un puesto sobresaliente. ¿Y porque? Preguntamos nosotros, a lo cual el mundo responde: Porque el negro aun nada en concerto ha realizado.
Si bien es verdad que los miembros no pueden dar a su leader salud y libertad, pero pueden facilmente ayudarle a conservar su salud cooperando con todo aquello a su alcance, en la realización de la gigantesca empresa en que estamos interesados, guiando los multiples asuntos del movimiento por camino recto y así librar su mente de toda intranquilidad.
La organización afronta al presente una de las mas grandes dificultades en su historia; esto es, el conservar el templo del garveismo, el Liberty Hall de Nueva York, de modo que permanezca como propiedad exclusiva de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, un monumento al distinguido fundador de la organización y a los principios que ella sustenta. ¿Que podría contribuir más a la mejora del gran leader como su conocimiento de que el Liberty Hall esta salvo de toda sombra de duda, porque los miembros han respondido a la llamada de salvación?
Podemos admitir el que una raza se regocje en la creencia de un ilimitado amor fraternal; pero cuando consideramos seriamente el problema de la humanidad, basado en el materialismo del presente, llegamos a la conclusión de que tal hermandad no es reconocida ni respetada, a menos que ella no represente adelanto. El negro es estirado y encogido universalmente, porque progresivamente nada representa; porque su contribución a la civilización moderna es prácticamente nula. Compenetrada de ello, la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra adopta el alto ideal del establecimiento de una nación prepotetnte de la raza, la cual fortifique la estructura de nuestro progreso y afianze sólidamente nuestro provenir.
La tercera petición en pro de la libertad de nuestro presidente general, esta ya en manos del Departamento de Justicia. Nosotros no podemos libertarle, pero podemos enviar peticiones continuas a aquellos que tienen tal poder. De otro modo ellos considerarian nuestro silencio como indiferencia.
Mientras el negro no haga tal contribución a la actual civilización, mientras no demuestre adelanto en su línea independiente de progreso, no podrá elevarse en la apreciación del mundo a un nivel mas alto del que ocupa en la época presente. El negro vanidoso podrá decir: Yo estoy educado, yo represento la nota mas alta en inteligencia, yo soy graduado de los mejores colegios y universidades de Europa y de America. El financiero orgulloso de la raza podrá decir: ¿Conqué autoridad se dice que no represento progreso, cuando mis instituciones bancarias giran contantos millones de pesos? Generalmente el negro podrá decir: Tengo mi hogar, he procreado una familia, tengo tantos pesos en el banco; quién dice que no he progresado? Y a todo esto nuestra organización responde : Todo progreso que el negro haya hecho, toda posición que el negro se haya conquistado, estan sujetos el uno y la otra a la censura del mas fuerte, toda vez que dicho progreso y dicha posición no esten respaldados por un poder constituo.
Nuestra raza requiere verdadera direccion; la clase de direccion que el Hom. Marcus Garvey tan valiente y desinteresadamente provee. Aquellos de nosotros que profesemos
SCIENTISTS FIND TOMB OLDEST IN EGYPT
Underground Crypt Believed to Be That of Man Who Founded Science of Medicine 5,000 Years Ago
CAIRO. Egypt, March 31.—Discovery of a tomb estimated to be fifty centuries old, dating back to the Third Dynasty of the Ancient Pharaohs, was announced today. Experts say it may be the earliest tomb ever found in Egypt.
The find was made by Cecil Firth, who has been conducting excavations in behalf of the Antiquities Department of the Egyption Government, at Sakkara, a village near the ruins of Memphis. Near Sakkara is the famous step pyramid, believed to be the oldest of the Egyption pyramids.
Nuestro elemento vive superficialmente; el usa y consume aquello que el otro le ha facilitado para su comodidad y para satisfacer sus propios deseos. Siempre que continuemos pidiendo prestado el vestido que haya de cubrir nuestro cuerpo, estaremos expuestos a la intemperie pues este tarde o temprano se nos será quitado, y si no queremos experimentar tal desagrado tendremos que proporcionarnos nuestro propio vestido. Tal actuación de parte de nuestro elemento es la causa por la cual, tanto la raza blanca como las demás razas, le tengan postergado v por ende se le guarde tan poca consideración, utilizándoseel como el blanco donde se descarga todo escarnio, toda intriga y toda avejación.
The tomb is located on the boundary wall surrounding the step pyramid, and was discovered only after a long and difficult search, owing to the extensive precautions taken by the builder to conceal it.
It is thought, but not yet established, that it is the burial place of Imhotep, architect to King Zoser, who built the step pyramid. Imhotep was greatly revered by the ancients, being considered one of the wisest of men and founder of the science of medicine, the law and other branches of learning.
Todo pueblo, toda raza tiene su propia cultura, tiene su propia civilización, llámese chino ó japonés; ya se encuentre establecido en Europa ó en Asia. El oriental se halla altamente satisfecho con su túnica, su sombrero de paños torcidos y sus vestidos flotantes; sus ideales le hacen feliz. El hombre blanco goza de satisfacción con sus trajes a la última moda; se vanagloria con su prosición adquirida por medio de la conquista. El negro se conforma con su desnudez; la decepción le agobia debido ésta a la poca ejercitud y buen uso de su poder, como unidad factible de la gran familia humana.
A deep stairway of 100 steps leads down through an obscure tunnel in the rock. Branch tunnels and stairways lead to a series of underground rooms, the walls of which once were blue tiled like the rooms in the step pyramid. The rooms still bear the remains of interesting limestone reliefs and decorations of the period, including the portrait of King Zoser. In one tunnel, twelve magnificent alabaster wine jars were discovered.
Los que formamos parte integrante de esta organización, empenados en la amplia realización del ideal de este movimiento, estamos determinados, hemos de repetir, en aportar nuestra contribución independiente a la civilización contemporanea. No hemos de hacer esta contribución entonando un hosanna in excelsis 6 reverentemente rogando al Todopoderoso, sino fundando una nación con un gobierno eficiente, para lo cual hemos de poner en ejecución todo nuestro sentido común y todas nuestras energías. Lugo que hayamos edificado sustancialmente el templo de nuestro imperio, estamos en el pleno convencimiento de que casaran los odios y las segregaciones, y ocuparemos una posición de respeto entre los pueblos y las naciones, posición que por si sola ha de asegurar nuestro porvenir, en medio de la ambición de la rivalidad y del materialismo existentes de la época en que vivimos.
amar la raza, debemos considerar como nuestro deber el preservar la salud y tranquilidad del miembro mas prominente de nuestro pueblo. La simpatia reforzada por la cooperación y la asistencia habil en la consecución de nuestros anhelos, ha de convertir en realidad todo cuanto a nuestra simple vista tenga rascos de imposibilidad.

Builder of Monitor Succumbs to Death
ANTIGONISH, N. S., April 4.—Death today had closed the career of Hugh MacDonald, 97-year-old native of Pictou county, one of that band of artisans who, with scaled lips and anxious hopes, welded and riveted together the first armored ship of war—the Monitor, of United States Civil War fame. MacDonald's parents were among the first Scottish immigrants to Pictou county, and when he became of age he went to the United States, where he acquired skill as a workman in steamship and locomotive building in the Dearborn & Lawdon Works at Dorchester, Mass. The Civil War found MacDonald among those chosen by the Northern forces to work on the construction of the Monitor, the secret of which was being closely guarded. In his latter years he often told of his experience and of his pride in the fact that when the Monitor met the Merriman the highest hopes of her builders were fulfilled.
Police of Berlin
To Curb Mashing
BERLIN.—Berlin men do not seem to behave. Showered by complaints of women that men in Berlin streets are "pretty fresh," the police president has deemed it necessary to recall to his forces a regulation prohibiting men to address women in public. Offenders against this regulation are liable to be penalized with $35 or may be sentenced to a fortnight's imprisonment. However, since the regulation has been ordered to be strictly enforced, the number of offenses decreased considerably, says the president.
Some papers commenting on the regulation believe that the order for enforcement is the result of American modelled puritanism. Immigrants to the United States will be shown Department of Agriculture film productions at ports of entry, acquainting them with American history, geography and agricultural methods.

Mr.J.A.Rogers, Well-Known Author and Journalist, Describes Incidents of Travel On Tour of European Lands
Written for The Negro World
By J. A. ROGERS
There are so many interesting places in Rome that it will be possible to touch barely on a few in this concluding article.
From a historical standpoint the most interesting spot is, of course, the Foro Romano, an enclosure of perhaps not less than a hundred acres, the heart of the old Roman Empire.
Approaching the Foro Romane, the first point of interest will be the Carcere Mamertine, or Mamertine Prison, where the Apostles Paul and Peter were placed by order of Nero. It is a glorious, underground dungeon entirely of stone, with barely enough room in the cells to stand erect. No one could complain of coddling prisoners in those days.
Entering the Foro Romano, which is open free on Sundays and holidays, one sees a vast mass of broken columns strewing the ground, with a few forlorn ones still standing, sometimes held together by bands of metal and gigantic masses of brickwork. All of this, it must be explained, is not the handwork of time, but that of man, who broke down these buildings in order to get the rare Numidian marble. The Goths and Vandals, it will also be recalled, descended on Rome, smashing everything they could find and giving us the word "vandallam."
In this place were no less than a dozen great temples, among them that of Saturn, where the treasures were kept; that of the Empress Faustina, with her name still on the horizontal carving; that of the famous warlike twins, Castor and Pollux; that of Janus, with its double face of Peace and War, giving us the word "Janus-faced," or hypocrite; that of the Vestal Virginia, who kept the sacred fires of Rome burning incessantly for more than a thousand years; that of the Empress Julina, on the steps of which the body of Julius Caesar was burned after Anthony's famous oration; while mightiest of all is that of Venus, part of which was later turned into a Christian church and is still standing.
One feels quite a thrill when he recalls that on this same spot once trod Augustus Caesar, who, dead and turned to clay, will stop a hole to keep the wind away; the Harlot-Empress, Messalina; Pompey and Cataline, and Cleero, and all the rest. In the hollow at the foot of the hill is the remains of the Forum in which they all hold forth.
An interesting place nearby, on the outside, is the old Jewish Ghetto, a word meaning cut-off, and the fore-runner of all ghettoes. It began its existence about 20 B.C., when Pompey brought the first Jewish captives to Rome, and lasted until 1850 A.D. Less than seventeen years later, however, the Jews had become a power to be reckoned with, as in the case of the Negro, who, forty-five years after his destitute entry into Virginia, found himself faced with a law prohibiting his buying white people. (See Honing's Statutes of Virginia, Vol. 2.)
On the hill is the Palatine, one of the famous Seven Hills, adorned by the palaces of the Caecars, now denuded of their costly marble and but great cliffs of brick from which one may get a fine view of the city. The gardens are still there, with orange trees laden with ripe fruit.
Descending again, one finds himself among arches of brick so lofty and spacious that when the Christians came into power they used the space as churches, many of which still bear their decorations.
In the vicinity is the Coliseum, so grizzled with age that it hardly seems to be the handwork of man. This structure, which is almost half a mile in circumference, was competed in so A. D. by the Emperor Titus, and took the labor of thirty thousand slaves, who were all freed.
The Coliseum was opened with a performance lasting one hundred days, during which several thousand gladiators and wild animals tore one another to pieces. Readers of "Quo Vadis" will also recall how the Christians were thrown to the lions in the great arena, now but long sections of masonry with great holes between. One feels like going into Ingersollian rhapsodies on seeing the Coliseum, for on the spot on which raged such barbarity and bloodshed are now parties of tourists and children playing hopscotch. Much of the Coliseum, like that of the buildings in the Foro Romano, was also despolled to furnish materials for other buildings. Considerable restoration has been done by one or two of the Popes.
Not far from the Coliseum are the Baths of Caracalla, a structure hardly less imposing than the Coliseum. This bath, which could accommodate more than a thousand persons at once, was also a cultural center, with libraries and art galleries. In several of the pools may still be seen the hot-water pipes and the beautiful mosaic. This bath is but one of many. Bathing weat out of favor, however, with the Christian regime, and seems to be still out of favor in Catholic Europe, broadly speaking. Many of the early salina prided themselves on the fact that they never bathed, hence the phrase "odor of sanctity."
In this vicinity—Via Cerchi (Circus street)—are the rules of the Circus Mazimus, where the Romans hold their athletic games. The stadium accommodated 100,000 persons—almost four times as many as the Coliseum. These old Romans certainly built with a robustness and vastness of corruption beyond modern man, but it must be resplified that they had the example of the Greeks, who in turn had that of the Egyptians and Ethiopians.

D.; the American Academy, the Rocca di Papa, or Pope's Rock; of Frascati, the suburb in which Cicero lived, and the palace of the Vatican, where the Pope lives, hence space must be reserved for mention of two of the leading ones—the Catacombs of San Callisto and the Vatican Library.
The first is to be found on the famed Applan Way, about two miles from the city. Here was one of the cemeteries of Rome, which was later used by the Christians as secret places of worship. These Catacombs are thirty-two acres in extent, twelve miles in length, and are in three stories, the first of which is forty feet underground. Almost all of the tombs were riffled by the Vandals.
The place is now under the care of the Trappist monks. One of them, with his shaven crown, long, flowing robe and sandals, took us below after giving each of the party a candle. Unfortunately, I saw little of the place as I chose the English-speaking group in which were several American belles who asked to be taken out after they had seen but a small part of it. "Oh! said one of them to the guide, "we'd better go out now. I guess the rest of the place is just like this." Visiting these historic places is like taking medicine to many of the American tourists, who'd much rather be in a Montmartre cabaret, but come because when they return home they will be able to say they had visited these places.
For the early Christians it was quite a victory—from hunted beings in these gloomy vaults to the rulership of Home. Peter's vision of a world empire ruled by Christianity had won. As many of the buildings in England have curved on them the name of the king, so here most of the older buildings bear the name of the reigning Pope, who in the earliest stages were as much thought of by the populace as the pastor of some two by four colored church is now. But these leaders were usually men of vision and not afraid to die for their cause. The martyrced bodies of several of them once laid in these vaults. Well, there were no fat salaries attached to leadership those days.
The Vatican Library is perhaps the largest repository of art treasures in the world, and one walks through what must be miles and miles of rooms so filled with them that it is most difficult to fix one's attention on any one object. Nevertheless one must be arrested by the paintings of Raphael in the rooms that bear his name; the Sistine Chapel, with Michael Angelo's famous painting, "The Last Judgment"; the thousands of books with signatures sent to the Pope from America and all parts of the world, one of which is said to contain the names of 33,000 French persons who declare themselves "ready to suffer and die for the faith" and Nero's tub tub, which is big enough for five persons.
Of especial interest to me was the Egyptian Room, with one of the finest collection of Egyptian art and statuary in existence. This reminds me to say that if the busts of certain persons known as Negroes in America were to be made and placed besides some of those of the Caesars in the galleries here, particularly that of Septimius Severus and Caracalla also—well, the inference is obvious. For as far back as one can go in history Europe and Africa have been meeting and mating along these shores. Besides, the noble Roman ladies were particularly fond of the Negro gladiators and others, as see the famous Sixth Satire of Juvenal, who lived in 80 A. D.
My next article will be from Florence, in which I will also say something of Muscalini and of the everyday life of the Italians.

Christian, Denish King,
Sweaha Six Language
CANNES, France, April 6-13
Christian of Denmark is one of the most polygist of all European nations. He speaks six languages and has a smattering of others.
On his visit to the Rivian, therefore, he not only enjoyed the sun but the linguistic opportunities as well.
One morning leaving his hotel by automobile, the King was surrounded by bell boys and porters and others, the monarch speaking French to some, English to others and Danish to his chauffeur. Accompanying the royal party was a Spanish with whom His Majesty conversed, and later they met a party from Switzerland, all of whom spoke German.
The King visits the casino every evening or so, but he does not gamble.
Chinese Alone Immune
The Chinese alone among cultured people are immune to stammering, according to Benjamin N. Bogue of Indianapolis, Ind., president or an institute for stammerers.
He further says: "In ordinary conversation these Chinese use 4,000 monosyllable words and employ four sets of tones besides to increase their vocabulary. In English speech the average man uses less than 2,000 words with no tonal change. Stuttering is peculiarly the malady of culture, unknown to savage tribes and races. American Indians are entirely immune to both stuttering and stammering."
The Negro "In It"
You may talk about the Negro.
You may name his faults infinite.
But you cannot turn a wheel
That a Negro isn't in it.
You may block his civil rights.
You may say you are "again it";
But before you turn around.
Some sharp Negro will be in it.
You may build your Chinese walls.
You may plan for every minute;
But with all your wily schemes.
Some few Negroes will be in it.
You may form your "Lilly Whites."
You may kill your bear and skin it;
When the pie is passed around.
Some shrewd Negro will be in it.
Be it high, or be it low,
From the cook pot to the senate.
There is not a place on earth,
That a Negro isn't in it.
So my friend, just stop your folly,
Draw this thought out new, and
spin it.
God intends from first to last,
That a Negro must be in it.
You may try the plan of Pharaoh.
Kill the race out, try to thin it;
When the census rolls are called,
Negroes always will be in it.
If you keep on with your lynching.
Take this thought down now and
pin it:
When you reach the shore of shores,
You will find some Negroes in it.
You may reach the land Beulah,
If perchance you oer should win it?
Don't you emigrate, my brother,
When you see some Negroes in it.
