The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Interests of the Negro Race Africa, Peculiarly Qualified By Experience and Suffering, Will Some Day Lift A Sinful World from The Mire of Materialism Hon. Marcus Garvey in Speech That Caused Sensation in Washington Expounds the Philosophy of the New Negro in His Climb to Nationhood—Wants Jesus but Also His Share of the World's Goods—Even as It Was a Black Man Who Came to the Help of Jesus on the Road to the Cross, So Negroes Will Fill the Role of the Good Samaritan to Stricken Humanity We print below the fourth instalment of a remarkable address delivered by the Hon. Marcus Garvey, founder and President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, at Washington, D. C., on November 20, 1921: "I am determined Africa shall play a similar part in the world as Europe and Asia. If I live for one hour longer, if I live for fifty years longer, if I live for one hundred years more, my one fight in the world shall be for a free and redeemed Africa. Now, do not call me a militarist, a warrior—I am just what the other fellow is. Understand that. If he is a Christian, I am a Christian; if he is anything else, I am just what he is, because I am satisfied to go anywhere he goes. I am not one of those Negroes who believe that the white man should take the world and give me Jesus. I am not one of those crazy Negroes who believe that. Jesus does not belong to the black man, to the white man—He is for all of us, whether white, yellow or black. So any man who thinks he is going to get all of Jesus, to the exclusion of every other man, is making a big mistake. Jesus is for everybody; therefore, I do not want all of Him. I only want my portion, my part of Jesus, and let the other fellow get his. But even as I am determined that he should get his portion and I mine, I want my portion of the world or I shall die for it. That old-time subserviency of the Negro, going down on his hands, of supplicating and begging, you have to cut that out. The first thing to decide is whether you are men. Are you men? If you are men, live like men, and it is preferable to die rather than live less than men. I believe with Patrick Henry: 'I care not what others may say, as for me give me liberty or give me death.' "Africa is the rising star among the nations of the world. To me Africa in another fifty years, in another one hundred years, will be the leader of civilization. And why do I say so? Because the Negro, who is the African, has had an experience, an education never possessed by any other race of the world. We have had an education of five hundred years that ought to teach us how to live, how to govern, how to rule. No race has suffered such as this race of ours. By our suffering we are able to appreciate the sufferings of others, and thereby when we get into power we will be able to mete out justice and mercy because of what we ourselves felt when we were suffering. I cannot see how Negroes can be satisfied to have other people lead them. The only man who can lead me is the man who feels like me. The only man who can represent me is the man who suffers like me because that man knows what I want. No man who does not feel like me can tell me what I want. He cannot appreciate the extent of my suffering and, therefore, cannot represent me. And that is why the Universal Negro Improvement Association refuses to allow anyone to speak for the Negro but the Negro himself. Africa's Quality of Mercy "I believe Africa will be the greatest nation in the world, because Africa with all the experience of centuries will be able to fathom the suffering of humanity, and Africa is always sympathetic, always merciful. Aye, we have practiced down the ages. When the world sought the life of the Son of God, when the whole world turned down the Son of God, who came to preach salvation to mankind, to preach redemption to the world, when Asia and Europe rejected Him, when Asia and Europe sought the life of God in the person of Jesus Christ, it was the love of Africa that saved Him for Calvary. From the cradle to the grave Africa stood beside the Son of God. When Herod sought the Child's life, the angel said, 'Flee, take the Babe into Egypt, the land of Africa.' And when that Child went back to Palestine, look what they did. They cried out, 'Crucify Him, crucify Him, crucify Him.' And they would not stop until the sentence of crucifixion was delivered. Crucify Him! And even up to the time when they placed upon the shoulder of the Son of God the heavy cross and they saw it was too much for His physical strength to bear, what did they do? They flogged Him, they pierced His Side, they lashed Him as he tried to climb the heights of Calvary. And there again Africa came to His rescue in the person of Simon, the Cyrenian, who took up the cross and bore it up the heights. There again the charity, the love, the mercy of Africa are exemplified; and I believe in another twenty-five years the wise ones will be telling us Simon the Cyrenian was a white man; but we are going to tell them later on the truth of history, because we are going to write our own history. We are going to give to the world our own revised version of the Bible, so that all that these counterfeiters have put in the Bible about colored men, black men, Negroes being created to be hewers of wood and drawers of water, will be cut out. "We are living in a new day, in a new civilization, and it is for the Negro to carve out his own fame, his own destiny and send down the ages to succeeding generations." Some Things Garveyites Should Know The writer opened a monthly tour of divisions in the Middle West on March 14 and is pleased to record the following impressions Toledo, Ohio—Rising from the aces of civil administration President Chas. M. Carson, assisted by Mr. A. Macle, secretary, and a loyal band are working zealously to bring order out of chaos. Detroit, Mich.—Forging ahead in spite of sinister influences which sought to paralyze its brilliant power at the close of the March convention 1928. President Leonard Smith and his administration are guarding insolently the honor and integrity that are Detroit's Chicago, Ill.—Running wild. Just as the city of Chicago is bent on wrestling the crown of each greatness from proud New York, so Chicago division under President E. B. Knox and Mr. Balfour Williams, executive secretary, is bent on wrestling the crown of greatness from the New York local, the Immitt and Detroit. All auxiliaries are function well and the chair is a wonderful musical aggregation Gary, Ind.-After years of doubt and uncertainty this division is coming through to victory. The Gary band is among our best and the Legions, Nurses and Motor Corps are stopping at a fast pace. The juveniles are growing in strength and service. In Miss Lillian Bell, 12 years old, there is the nobility, grit and building tenacity of Madam M. L. T DeMena. She is a prodigy of which Gary and the association may well be proud President Eugene Stewart, recently from the parent body, is receiving the whole-hearted support of the members and gradually winning the respect of the community. Gary is justly proud of its Liberty Hall which has a seating capacity of about 200. It is a beautiful monument to the loyalty of its members who made it a reality through donations of materials and personal labor. Former President Alvaro Ollerga de Mexico declared on March 23, "The strong must never forget that a friend is more helpful than a slave; and that it is less costly to convince than to subdue men and peoples." It is not that the strong do not realize these truths. They are but slaves of that insatiable ambition which inscribed Socrates to say, "The penalty of injustice is not death or stripes, but the fatal necessity of becoming more and more unjust." Momentous World Situations. Years ago the late Lord Aveybury (of internationalism): "The religion of worship of the god of war" Time has Old world animosities, jealousies, and were at the time of birth, each such than diminishing in intensity.

British r to dominate the Adriatic, while France Poland, Rumania, and heavily proposed Italy reported to be encouraging Belfast Slavia. And while Europe sizzles in her blinded by religious hypocrisy and a opportunity present to strike the big professed religion we do not seem to from oppression are answered Years ago the late Lord Averyhury (Sir John Lubbock) wrote in the "Review of Internationalism": "The religion of Europe is not Christianity, but the worship of the god of war." Time has failed to praise anything to the contrary. Old world animosities, jealousies, and intrigues are as virgin today as they were at the time of birth, each succeeding age finds them growing rather than diminishing in intensity. News for the past week reveals these momentous international situations. The danger of war between Italy and Jugo-Slavia over Albania. Italy demands navy equal to French fleet. British reported back of Massollian in his drive to dominate the Adriatic, while France supports Jugo-Slavia. Russia watches Poland; Rumania favorslish proposes for the warat. Germany marks time; Italy reported to be encouraging Eublargian brigands to revolt against Jugo-Slavia. And while Europe sizzles in her own pot of news, 400,000,000 Negroes blinded by religious hypocrisy and superstition are unmoved by the great opportunity present to strike the blow for African autonomy. With all our professed religion we do not seem to know when our prayers for liberation from oppression are answered. Week's Items of Interest Other international news of interest 1.

And just as how the new had save China for the Chinese so, too, the battle will take place on African soil the new to save Africa for the Africa Shimshal, chief city of the Northern Chinese forces, is in possession of the Nationalists or Southern army. The significance of this climactic incident in a prolonged and unfortunate civil war in two-fold for Negroes. First, it demonstrated that although enemies in the struggle for control of their native land, the two factions were one in principle so far as foreign interference in the internal affairs of China was concerned. The defender of Shanghai refused to neutralize his zone, thus endorsing a similar stand of the Nationalists, much to the surprise and disgust of the white powers. It won China's battle, they said in short, and China is fully competent to protect her integrity. Throughout the whole campaign no Chinaman on either side violated that principle, no one betrayed his trust. Get rid of foreign control first, then will settle our differences after—such was the spirit of nationalism which made the struggle between the two factions unique in the annals of imperialism. Second, the Northerners represented the old China, the Southerners the new. And just as how the new had to convert the old by force of arms to save China for the Chinese no, too, the day is fast approaching when a similar battle will take place on African soil—a struggle between the old Negro and the new to save Africa for the Africans.

The grandeur of the views on this tour is upsurpassed, while the roads form a tribute to the progress of civilization. Well may it be said that the beams from the motor headlights have pierced the night shades of darkest Africa. To the average motorist of New York and vicinity, whose horizon is bounded by area after area of territories smoothed into homelands by American industry, there will be a particular appeal in the road projects accomplished through African Extracts from a letter sent by L. D. Galton-Fenzi, honorable secretary of the Royal East African Automobile Association, outline the gigantic task accomplished in opening up a wonderland to automobileists and other travelers. They are as follows: "Forty years ago this territory, with the exception of the Island of Zanzibar and part of Uganda, was practically unknown to white men, but I suppose we have progressed more here than any other country in the world. Although on the quator, we have a most wonderful climate, owing to the tablelands, where European civilization has set its foot. Curious as it may sound, within 200 miles of Nairobi, near the top of Mount Kenya, we have a frozen lake where one can skate all the year round. We have the superb mountain of Kilimanjaro, 19,000 feet, and Ruwenzori, or the Mountain of the Moon, 15,000 feet, crowned with perpetual snow and ice. Our big game is known the world over, while at the coast the sea fishing is second to none; in fact, many of the species are yet nameless. "Eight years ago I founded the association, which was made 'royal' by his majesty, the King in 1921. My membership comprises 75 per cent of the white population of the country . . . Mechanical traction here is such a necessity, now that we have one motor vehicle to every one and a half white inhabitant, which I think is a world record. "I have been lucky enough to be able to undertake a pioneer trip from car from Nairobi to Mongala, the navigable hepawers of the Nile, with the result that we now have hundreds of tourists coming through from Egypt, as it takes only four days to motor the 181 miles. Another pioneer trip I undertook in 1925 was from Nairobi through Tanganyika down to Rhodesia. The result of this has been that we now have a perfect, good road linking up with the South African system "The first tourists, who you will pleased to know, were Ameri- nobas, arrived the other day (the letter is dated January 27), having motored up the 4,000 miles entirely on a pleasure trip from Cape Town to Nairobi. "The third pioneer trip which I undertook was to connect Mombasa with Nairobi by road; a distance of some 350 miles, and we now have over 100 cars a month using this road and thus opening up the country." Supreme Court Segregation Ruling Does Not Touch the Problem—U. N. I. A. Way the Only Way (From the Literary Digest, March 26) Of Course, nobody can compel white people and colored people to be neighbors—and now the Supreme Court comes along to say that no State or city can legally keep them apart. All segregation laws, keeping white people out of Negro residence sections and Negroes out of white sections, are unconstitutional, says the Supreme Court for the second time. Such laws violate the Fourteenth Amendment guaranteeing equal civil rights to persons of all races. Very well, comes the answer from the pream of the South, we will drop segregation laws, but keep on segregating the races. Mural Paintings to Show Life in Remote Areas Life as it existed on the earth in remote geologic ages is to be vividly pictured on the wall of the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago in a series of twenty-eight great mural paintings, supplemented by sculptured groups of restorations of such animals as the extinct threepot horse, the mastodon and the dinosaur. The compilation for the work has been given to Charles K. Knight leading artist in the depiction of prehistoric landscapes and animals and he will be assisted by a corps of scientists and by other artists. Six years will be required to bring the entire home to completion. Lightning instead of being that and engaged as it appears, really follows a natural course and is found in space before it arrives at its destination. FOR MARCUS GARVEY St, Louis, Mo., Branch Of U. N. I. A., Sends Own Appeal to Coolidge The following telegram was sent to the Hon. Calvin Coolidge by the St. Louis, Mo., branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association on March 6, 1927. His Excellency, Hon. Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States, The White House Twelve hundred members of the St. Louis branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, loyal citizens of the United States of America, assembled in solemn and religious mass meeting, March 6, 1927, bachse and pray your kind consideration of the release of our leader, Marcus Garvey. He is the leader of a cause as sacred to the hearts of millions of Negroes as the one for which the father of this great Republic fought and in which the blood of a black man was the first to anoint the escutcheon of a new nation. He has already served two years of the five-year sentence on charge of using the United Mail to defraud, while promoting a sincere and conscientious effort to raise the status of his race through the medium of industrial and commercial enterprises. Also, Your Excellency, on behalf of two million loyal Negro citizens throughout the United States of America, members of the organization, we humbly pray that you inscribe your immortal name on the hearts of these Negroes by granting our request and releasing to us our honest and generous leader. (Sgdr GEO. W. WILLIAMS, President. Plea of a Crippled Boy The following is a copy of a letter forwarded by Walter Blow, a little crippled boy of Philadelphia, Pa., to the Attorney General of the United States on the subject of Mr. Garvey's continued detention in prison. "Dear Sir:—I am a little boy going on my twelfth year. Although I am small, I feel the need of a leader, and I am asking the release of Morcus, Garvey. Don't you think we need a leader just the same as you do? Take for an instance, if President Coolidge was captured in China, wouldn't you do everything you could to get his release? Well, it is the same way with me. I treasure my leader as much as you treasure yours. Do you think the Almighty God is pleased with the way you whites are treating the Negroes? Suppose the colored were ruling the world and they treated the whites the way you are treating the colored, would you like it? Now when God has sent a man to lead his people out of bondage you people look him up, thinking that you will stop the work, but just as sure an there is a God in heaven the work won't be stopped. I am a big Garvey and am not ashamed to own it. I have had a vision that if Mr. Garvey isn't out in a certain length of time there will be an awful war, and I think it would be a very nice idea to let him out. "WALTER BLOW" 1731 S 20th St., Philadelphia, Pa. February 27, 1927. Negroes Menaced by Mob Declared Innocent Three Negroes of Coffeyville, Kansas, who were saved by state troopers from the hands of a white mob on March 18, have since been released from the charge of attacking two white girls. Following the arrest of the Negroes, a mob charged the city hall and exchanged shots with police and soldiers. A guard of militia had to be thrown around the Negro section of the city to have it from destruction. Hardware stores were leased for guns and ammunition. Tear gas bombs were used to break up the mob. When the city quieted down, Sheriff McGraw stated that the girls had declared the Negroes were not their assailants, and all three were freed.

Almost certainly Japan will start the parley by refusing to agree to any iron-bound rule, limiting the tongue of her cruisers and other auxiliary craft to the Washington conference ratio of 5-3-8. Insisting instead upon a ratio of 5-5-5. "Does President Coolidge really think that Japan will assent to the 5-5-3 ratio as regards the subsidiary craft of America, Britain and Japan?" the independent Kokunin of Tokyo asks. "If capital ships, cruisers, destroyers and submarines were each and all limited to the uniform ratio of 5-5-3," the paper goes on to say, "the national defense of Japan would become practically, if not absolutely, nominal. Japan might as well scrap her navy altogether and submit to Britain and America as accept such a proposal." Demand Par With U. S. "If Japan, who was diplomatically insulted at the first disarmament conference, is to join in the second," the Yorozu Choko, another independent newspaper of Toyko, agrees, "she should be resolved to make the most of the opportunity of avenging her previous humiliation. "We have seen enough of what America's humanity is like." it continues. "We have seen it in her anti-Japanese immigration law that was put into force in 1926. 'It is a thing we can no longer approve. For this reason, what Japan should resolutely insist on at the second disarmament conference is that she should be placed on a par with the United States and Great Britain, that is a 5-5-5 ratio between the navies of Japan, Britain and America." Japan, in whose eyes America is a hypothetical enemy, can never agree to accept the 5-6-3 ratio in respect to subsidiary vessels," chirques the Nationalist Tatamio. Humiliation "Nor is it sound to regard a disarmament conference simply in the light of a technical conference. It is more of a political than a technical conference. 'An insistence on the 5-5-3 ratio as an unchangeable iron rule will only push the world into the dark chaotic current of war instead of guiding it on the path to peace. Armaments are mere implements. Something else makes them work. What makes them work? Bad feeling between peoples. Which thought is obviously in the mind of the Osaka "Maimichi" when commenting upon President Coolidge's invitation to Geneva. "Can America except Japan as frankly and as heartily to enter into such a question as limitation of armaments as other powers may?" he asks. "No," he answers. "Following the great earthquake when Japan was in an exhausted condition as a result of the terrible visitation, America inflicted a serious humiliation on Japan in the name of a national law. "Despite the warning given by Mr. Hanlann (Japanese ambassador to Washington at that time), that the passage of the act would bring about grave consequences, Congress passed it in defiance of the pride of the Japanese people and the President sanctioned it, thereby branding the Japanese as an inferior people. "This was an unbearable fault. This being so, in asking for Japan's cooperation in arranging a limitation of arguments, America is only devising herself and forcing hypocrisy on Japan." Such is the general tone of the Japanese press. How English Prince Charlestoned Way To Parental Wrath How English Prince Charlestoned Way To Parental Wrath PARIS, March 27. Many persons are wondering what the Queen of England may have to say to her youngest son, Prince George, who yesterday distinguished himself and incidentally, attracted the attention of all European society by winning the Charleston contest in the Sporting Casino of Cannes in competition with dozens of expert dancers. The Prince's partner was the Marchioness of Milford Haven. However, this will not help him at Buckingham Palace for it is recalled here that the King and Queen have frowned upon the eccentricities of the Charleston and have forbidden it at court functions. The identity of Prince George and his pretty partner were not known to the judges until after the award was made. Later, the Prince and Marchioness gave an exhibition dance, holding the door alone. A certificate stating that Prince George is the winner of the Inter- national Dancing Federation competition was presented to him. 11. Dancing 22.

Now You Know How To Help Your Puny, Weak Child (From The New York Times) SHANGHAI. March 27 - In another week the evacuation of the Yangtse River Valley will be practically complete so far as Americans and British are concerned, with the exception of Shanghai. Here the foreign troops have the privilege to shoot in order to protect property as well as lives; otherwise Shanghai would go the way of the other Yangtse and neighboring treaty ports. Only gun fire will save missions as well as business houses. The missionaries, who until Thursday morning booted at the consular advises to withdraw, are now evacuating the interior, leaving behind all but portable valuables, some even without them. They are leaving behind the work and hope of half a century, with little prospect of returning unless gunballs are employed to reopen the country to them as in 1900. Sudden Change of Opinion The change of opinion is amazing. Only a fortnight ago the important United Protestant Association appointed delegations to England and America to explain the Nationalist movement favorably. Now that women have been robbed as well as men of the clothes on their backs, what can they explain? Will America re-establish trading and teaching privileges by force, with Britain? These are questions intelligent persons here asking and answering in the negative. It is therefore assured that Shanghai is only the temporary stopping-place for Britons and Americans before the longer journey homeward. Probably a dozen ships are tonight steaming to Shanghai with refugees. Nanking is now completely evacuated. Hangchow is fast evacuating. Hangchow is evacuated, the foreigners from the latter city having arrived here safely today. At Wuhu the British and Americans are aboard ships coming hither. American and British gunboats and destroyers are gathering up their nationals from smaller stations. Asked to Get to the River Asked to Get to the River Appeals from the interior are answered: "Come to the river's shores, gunboats will receive you, otherwise can give you no help." It is regarded among the foreigners here as a ghastly tragedy, more ghastly for China than the United States or Britain. Both mount the Chinese well, but as a nation she is apparently incapable of understanding. The theory that she is not a field for Bolshevism is held to be proven wrong. Ignorance and distress are too widespread to permit her to understand kindness with the authority of force. It is argued that the average Chinese whose lot is horrible gramps at Bolshevism, as in the Russians did, as a promise of something better, and the possessions of the foreigners in his midst is the tangible immediate indulgence. Too few are the Chinese educated in America and Britain, and they are the only educated that China has. After Shanghai and Nanking, despite Eugene Chen's pledged word to the British, the policy of eliminating the English boxers had begun. At Hankow the foreigners there have learned that it is the government's intention to expel them in a month, a process begun by closing the English newspapers, calling a strike of the Chinese staff under a death threat to the foreman The closing of the banks followed. - Posters Attack Christianity The attack upon the churches is such that the Christian converts have manifested approval of the government and Bolshevism principles in the hope of surviving, but anti-Christian posters of a profane character and the history of the church under Bolshevism indicate how little they can hope, to say nothing of Nanking, Wuhu, Changsha and forty other evidences. Today here in Shanghai great mass meetings were held in many sections of the Chinese city. Bargainoids of people, banners flying, came across the It's Your Duty to Aid Him to Grow Strong, Active and Sound in Body and Mind That little boy or girl of you— that doesn't weigh enough that I am strong—has no appetite, lacks vigor and is perhaps backward, listless and ruin. What are you going to do with him? Have you ever heard of McCoy's God Silver, tell Compound Tablets—such used and as easy for asking children to take a copy? I am drugged in America a sellier, I will hide it, I will hide it, and the premely good combination of upbuild- rivers and down the creeks and canals to attend. As was done at Hankow, the flags of the Nationalists and the Soviets were flown together. Bannors in Chinese, Russian and English read: "We appeal to all the labor unions of the world to help in the downfall of imperialism." Resolutions were passed, according to the police reports—no foreigners during to attend—demanding the recovery, of the French and international settlements by force if necessary. A friend expressed regret to Sir Francis Aglon when he was dismissed from the Chinese customs service a month ago, and Aglon replied that he did not need sympathy but that China did. CHIANG KAI SHEK GIVES HIS VERSION OF NANKING AFFAIR SHANGHAI, March 26 — General Chiang Kai Shelk, commander of the Nationalist armies, in a statement to the correspondent of the World and North American Newspaper Alliance today characterized as deliberate lies the stories circulated to the effect that Nationalist troops were responsible for the killing at Nanking: "The White Russians were responsible for the Nanking affair," General Chiang said, "despite the news which the British are carefully spreading that the Nationalists caused the trouble. The Russians, native burials of the Shantungese forces and the rabble started looting and killing before the Nationalists arrived. "The White Russians occupied Soony Hill as the Cantonese advanced on both flanks. Standard Oil officials telephoned the gunboats that the Cantonese were advancing, with the result that the gunboats fired on the Nationalists, killing and wounding many of our troops. Holds Shantungese Gulity "The foreigners evacuated immediately and the Nationalists were compelled to fight three hours* to defeat the Russians, who had taken a position on the hill. Obviously, during this time there could have been no Cantonese in the city where the looting and killing were done. We have proof that there were only Shantungese in the city, and that they were responsible. "The reports which the British are busily circulating that the National army and handits engaged in looting are utterly unfounded, as the fact that the affair has already been settled with the powers indicates. "We will attempt to take over the foreign settlements by diplomacy—not force. Unequal treaties must be cancelled, but at what time and by what means has not yet been determined. That will be left to the diplomats. We are resolved on our purpose to set our people free, and on a level with other races. We will treat foreigners without discrimination, and our endeavor has been to treat them fairly as we moved north. Blames British Press "The British press has done everything in its power to damage the reputation of the National Army. Public opinion is strong enough in China today to bring about by the economic weapon of the boycott what we may be unable to obtain by diplomatic means. To use force in adjusting the unequal treaties is unnecessary. "The Powers cannot suppress the Chinese by means of warships, no matter how numerous. Right must win over might." "It would be undiplomatic for the Americans to follow the British imperialistic policy, for America wants to trade with China. If they accept the British method they will be in the same position with the Chinese as the British" Gen. Chjang is in good health, but very tired.

Numerically, the white races are outnumbered by the colored races by more than two to one. Five hundred and fifty millions of white folk face 1,150,000,000 colored folk. Four-fifths of the entire white race is concentrated on less than one-fifth of the white world's territory—that is, in Europe—while the other one-fifth of the white race is scattered to the ends of the earth. This means that the one-fifth of the white race that is scattered about the world outside of Europe is up against the job of protecting four-fifths of the white race's territory against the pressure of colored races that outnumber this one-fifth by eleven to one. Added to all this is the fact that there is a high birth rate among the colored races and a falling birth rate among the white races. It is pointed out by these writers that the World War tapped the veins and arteries of the white world, which is now weak from blood letting at the very time when it should have all its strength to meet the challenge of the rising tide of color. These writers, in the main, say that at the end of the World War we blundered into a "peace" that left the white world at logger heads, less capable than ever of common action against a common peril. They suggest that the colored races have long been bitter against the white races for having grabbed and held so much territory that the crowded colored races need and that the Mark this: Five hundred and fifty millions of white folk face one billion, one hundred and fifty million colored folk. That looks and sound gigantic, overwhelming, and it is, as far as numbers go. And the white races control the wealth and the organized unification of numbers, with adequate organization and leadership, and these are tremendous advantages. The black and colored races, on the other hand, are poor in wealth and are without unity and organization and leadership. It is a great handicap, but if they are to win, they can overcome it. They may do this by development in the struggle that is impending, if it should come to a war of races, and colors, in the finality, and the white minority appears to invite the war. The white man has just reasons for fear of loss of the world supremacy which he has got by force and fraud, and has and is using to degrade and defraud those whom he has conquered or duped; but no humane person can look forward to such a war without great sorrow at the fierceness and dreadful havoc of it. It is within the power of the white races to avert it, by changing front, as they are going in the Chinese struggle, but the disposition to do so is not general, but sporadic, the whites feeling they have the advantage, and there lies the danger of a general conflagration. THE HERTZOG PROGRAM OF SLAVERY A CHALLENGE TO NEGRO MANHOOD. PREMIER HERTZOG of the Union of South Africa is a reactionary. He plans to enslave the millions of Negroes in the government of their own country, and he will do, if they and their white sympathizers will allow him to do it, but they show no disposition to do so. Premier Hertzog's program is stated by the South African Worker to be as follows: Couched in intricate, sneaking and hypocritical language, they are nevertheless, evidently framed with the deliberate intention of curbing native progress, keeping the native races as such in perpetual and intensified poverty and subjection to their exploiters, and in particular suppressing the growing nationalist and labor movements among them—with a shrewd eye to increasing and cheapening the farmers' native labor supply. The South African Worker says further that this brutal program "reflects the outlook of the majority of South Africa whites, including most white workers, who are, perhaps, more brutally frank about it than the bourgeois elements are," the point aimed at being that "the white man must always be a master and the black man a slave." Again, says the South African Worker, "In short, we must view these bills in view of the class struggle, and because we do we condemn them lock, stock and barrel, as embodying an intensified slave labor policy." In considering the program of Premier Hertzog it should not be forgotten that the population of the Union of South Africa consists of only 1,500,000 whites, as against 170,000 Indians, 560,000 colored people, 5,210,000 African Negroes, or blacks. In short, the 1,500,000 whites dominate and purpose to enslave 6,940,000 Negroes and Indians. They dare to do it. Can they do it? It should not be possible. If that African Negroes stand together and contend for equal rights and fair play, the whites cannot do it. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS Negro World T.

WHITE NATIONS STAND UNITED AGAINST CHINA THE members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have been taught by Hon. Marcus Garvey how to organize under their own leadership and to fight with a united front for their social, civil and economic values. They are striving by precept and example to show other members of the race how to do it, and with much success, as the rising tide of color based in self-appreciation has grown in favor among Negroes everywhere, and is growing. They appreciate the fact that when the test came in the conflict between the two warring factions of the Chinese people, in the fall of Shanghai to the Cantonese faction, last week, the white nations stood as one man against the Chinese, the British Coldstream Guards and the American marines fighting shoulder to shoulder to protect the lives and property of what the Chinese style "the foreign devils." We are not condemning this united action on the part of the white nations. We preach and teach that a united front is good and necessary for all Negro people, because experience has shown that it is good and necessary for the white race. It would be good and necessary for the red-race also if it had not been wiped off the map, to all intents and purposes, and that beyond resurrection, in the Western Hemisphere. The triumph of the Cantonese faction, should it be accomplished, and the signs all point that way, would mean the triumph of Chinese Nationalism. "China for the Chinese, without foreign interference or dictation," is the prize being striven for. We note with interest that, in spite of the plea of Indian Nationalists that East Indian troops of the British army be not called, upon for active service against the Chinese of either faction, the first to shed blood in the Shanghai defensive were two East Indian soldiers of the British army. This thing of African and Asiatic soldiers being used against each other by their white overlords, is one of the most scandalous and dangerous phases of the struggle of the darker races for liberation from white domination and exploitation. As matters now stand however, there is no way of preventing it. The West Indian and African black and the East Indian and other Asiatic brown peoples, when enlisted as units of white armies, are compelled to fight whom and where they are ordered. Jan Christian Smuts, former premier of the Union of South Africa, who has more common sense and fairness in dealing with the vast Negro people of the union than Premier Hertzogi said some time ago that the Negro had ceased to regard the white men as gods, and that, we say, is the first step towards the Negro's liberation in Africa from the thralldom of white domination and exploitation. It has now been stated by one who knows that the white man "has lost caste with the Chinese with whom caste is everything." That is to say, the Chinese commonality, the masses, have ceased to fear and respect the white man. The white races are united against China. In similar conditions they would be against any other Asiatic or African people in revolt against white overlordship. And they are all looking to a time when the Asiatics and Africans will be united among themselves as against the predatory and parasitical white races which are now preying upon their vitals. Unite! Organize! Follow your own leadership! And fight for your social, civil and economic values! THE WHITE MAN'S FEAR OF LOSS OF WORLD SUPREMACY Negro leaders have a habit of being two-faced, craven bobblers and cowards before whites, and brazen hostors before us. Nowadays our rising race consciousness mindful of past disillusionments, is quick to demand that whoever speaks for us shall be loyal of tongue and act, in every situation—Kansas City Call. If a man owns something he has less fear that it can be taken from him than if he has robbed another of it and fears all of the time that the rightful owner will claim his own and strive to regain it. And the guilty conscience always accuses its possessor and plagues him in ways he cannot understand nor control. That is the way the spirit works in "the even," concerning which men give little thought and do not always understand the workings of. The idea of every despoiler of the lands and liberties of others has been, "The master hath need of them." That is to say, "Let the rightful owner hold on to them—if he can." By that token the white races have grabbed the lands and destroyed the liberties of the Red Men of the Western Hemisphere, the Black Polynesians and Malays of the Pacific and the Australias, the Brown people of Asia, and the Black people of Africa. Their usurpations are being challenged in Asia and Africa. The beginning is small, but there has been a beginning. Why should anybody assume any inferior attitude, position or influence which lowers their self-respect, to satisfy any individual, group or even a combined district? To accept less than your due makes you less than your equal. To demand more makes you an autocrat. Flees looks and dark complexions don't alter nature's claim. Skins may differ but manly self respect dwells in white and black the same.—Denzel Star In many instances the Negro contends that he is discriminated against and denied certain of his rights, when what appears to be discrimination and denial of rights groups out of the indifference and lethargy of the same members then accuses Kust Tengege News. Dr Glenn Frank, the young president of the University of Wisconsin and a syndicate feature writer of much popularity, has tabulated the fears of those who regard the loss of world supremacy of the white races because of the reawakening of those of the darker and despoiled races, as follows. If we look at a political map of the world, say these scared scholars of racial relations, we see a world that is nine-tenths under white political control. Just now in a strong distress, there are groups among us who are oxygen using for the purpose of giving their support to the candidate who is capable of making the best impression on the life for future use. But this, they say, is a delusion, because a look at a racial map of the world will show a world only four tenth white and six tenths colored. Racially speaking, the world's area and during the campaign—Pacific Defender. It would no doubt be amazing if it was possible to learn just how much this nation-wide grim wave is due to the reading of obscene literature with which most newstands abound. Steps should be taken to banish such vile rubbish, which appeals only to the baser nature—Charleston Messenger. People who have done nothing and have nothing to do generally and plenty of time to knock those who have done and are doing something. Star, of Zion. There is too much leaping into the dark. Millions have been lost by it in the past. But the sun of intelligence is too high now for it to continue. We ought to insist upon careful investigation of each step we take. And we ought to take out business stopmilying large outlay without this investigation by the best business methods—Chatean Recorder. In the last analysis, much law is against the government and not its action and in effect, undermines our entire table of personal and public safety. Atlanta Independent Lovesiok Diplomat's Lapse Produced the Boer War and Possibly the World War By RAYMOND SWING In the Public Lodger LONDON, March 21 If a British diplomat had not been in love on a certain day in 1881 the British would not have lost the Transvaal, the Boer War would never have been fought, thousands of lives would have been spared, and even the World War might have been avoided These startling deductions are made by Admiral of the Fleet Mark Kerr, retired, in a book, "Land, Sea and Air," which will be published tomorrow The diplomat, whose name is not mentioned in the book, has been identified as the Hon Edmund John Morrison, the late British Minister to Uruguay. This "very charming diplomat" pocket in his hand, or rather his pocket, the face of the British force which met disaster at Mugua Hill; in the Transvaal, on February 27, 1831. This force, under General Colley, had been ordered northward from Cape Town to put down the Boar revolt. At the same time a British squadron lying in the harbor of Montevideo was ordered to the Cape to reinforce General Colley. The cablegram conveying the order was handed to the Minister (Morrison) at a ball to which the officers of the squadron, including Kerr, then a midshipman, had been invited. The Minister, who was just summoning up his courage to propose to a pretty, Englishwoman at the dance, put the message in his pocket, deferring the deciphering until later. In his excitement over the girl's answer the cable was forgotten and lay unguarded in his dress coat until it was discovered next day by his valet. When the order was sent to the port the squadron had sailed from Montevideo and a small boat sent to chase it a returned back by a force gale When the squadron, with its 1,008 field guns, finally reached the Capo it was too late to join the expedition. Had it arrived, says Admiral Kerr, the Mdjuba defeat would have been impossible. the Transvaal would not have left the empire, there would have been no Boer War. no Kruger letter written by the Kaiser and maybe no Anglo-German conflict later on. The records show, however, that Minister Morrison duly married the lady of his choice, who was none other than the daughter of the British Consul General at Montevideo. Both came from aristocratic families. HEALTH TOPICS By Dr. M. ALICE ASSERSON of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association The Value of Exercise The good effects of exercise are being emphasized on all sides. Health authorities everywhere are advocating exercise for people who wish to keep physically fit. It is being urged as a way to reduce. It is said by some enthusiasts to be a sure method of correcting almost all physical defects. Remember that exercise is not a magic recipe for health, but that if taken wisely and regularly and made a part of the day's routine it will do much to keep us healthy. Get your share of it every day. An hour's recreation out of doors is ideal. Get it by walking, by skating, by working in the garden, by a game of tennis, golf, baseball, etc. If you cannot secure a full hour each day get as much as you can. You need it to keep your muscle tone good, to stimulate the circulation, the organs of respiration and digestion. It will prevent constipation and will keep you from putting on excessively油腻. It will help you to keep physically fit. Animals need regular exercise and they are to it that they get some every day. Man needs daily exercise just as much. He should see that he gets it just as conscientiously as animals do. American Indian Held To Be Privileged Person PHILADELPHIA, March 15. For the American Indian no boundary exists, according to a decision handed down today by Federal Judge Oliver B Dickinson in the case of Paul Diabo, member of an Iroquois tribe, whom the United States sought to exclude for crossing the Canadian border without proper immigration status. Judge Dickinson ruled that Indians are not included among the members of alien nations whose admission to this country is controlled by existing immigration laws. Diablo structural fireworker was deported to Canada last March and intended to forget the incident. But the Six Nationale confederation of the six big Indian tribes of North America looked upon the action of the United States authorities as a breach of faith under the law Treaty and induced Diablo to come back to the United States several weeks ago to be rearrested, so that a test case could be made. and many other needs will be supplied for finally though may be no to retain poor health unaccentuated housing, low mortality and insufficient education. St Paul Dhoo The challenges here or have been shown to be for the Negro youth bought or sold in the fields and in the streets, suffer from disease. With their own determination of the I stood at attention to see—there was an angry thunder clap! A natural manifestation of the ugly clouds above. Proud man was all in excitement, questioning the meaning of darkness. That surrounded him on every side, from Mother Earth to heaven. Men were looking through closed windows with states of anxiety; Mothers were seeking their children for closer union of love. All motive power in the city had come to a sudden stop. There was nothing cheerful, only gloom and prehistoric weirdness. It was not the end of all time, nor the hour for Gabriel's horn. It was atmospheric change, caused through elemental moodiness. That sometimes make us feel that our sciences are but speculations. And the majesty of man, feeble, as his finite intellect. Yet there was fear and trembling as I observed it all around. Hearts were searched and prayers were offered in devout holiness. Everyone thought it was the end of the world, the great Judgment morn— The final visitation of God upon man's vain damnations I wondered to myself when saw the weakness of my brother. In the moment of apparent danger and infinite distress. How is it he finds heart to enslave the rest of his fellowmen. When conscience must tell him withal, we are in reality one. Those heavy clouds of roaring Heaven did not gather all in vain, On that day millions saw the evil of their fellows to oppress, The commonness of love and punishment from the Everlasting Father Who saves cities, nations, and peoples for even the righteous ten. After several blasts of thunder had shaken the trembling earth, The rain from the very clouds burst through in torrential showers. Again there was a sudden breaking of the angry elements; A stillness, as of death, seemed to reign on every hand and shadow; The sun, in munificent glory, shone radiantly once more; Everything was refreshed, from the green grass to the rosy flowers; It was as if nature had serged her elemental sacraments, To give new life to the ancient hill, dale, mountain and meadow. But I was satisfied that in the approach of death, men unite To shield themselves by thought and deed from the dread and ominous terror. This was only a storm with its currents of electricity. Yet the whole populace was aroused to see man's finite weakness. To realize that in the midst of life we are subjects of death, Children of an understanding source, hidden beyond nature's mirror. Whether, of nen we be divided in yellow, brown, black or white, We shall pass from life to the mysterious eternity. Copyright, 1927. You Must Trust Somebody By Dr. Frank Crane A man in a trusted business position disappeared. His books showed that over a period of years $100,000 had been diverted to his own use. The date of this story doesn't matter. It might be this year as well as another, for every year a certain number of such moral failures appear. Model cashiers default, trusted employees abscond and readers shake their heads over the morning papers from coast to coast. Yet such cases represent but an infinitesimal percent of the men who handle money throughout the land. Business is based upon a gamble upon the honesty of millions of men, and it goes on with comparatively few losses. The head of the Protective Department of a bankers' association once told this writer that nothing in the way of protection had been found or devised that was sure to work 1,000 times out of 3,000. There was always the human element that it depended upon finally for success. Samuel Butler, the author of "The Way of All Flesh," wrote in his "Notebooks" this observation "No matter what cunning system of checks we devise we must in the end trust some one whom we do not check, but whom we give unforeerved confidence." All safeguards end in the human equation No system of surveillance or checks or records or safeguards can be depended upon where men are unreliable. No walled town or barred城址 is secure unless those mans are loyal. The ultimate basis of business security is the trustworthiness of human nature. In the end human integrity can be relied upon. If this were not so the world of business would be as open to loot as a bank wallet with wide-open doors. Trusting to the honesty of human nature in a gamble, which, in spite of a fake exception, has proved itself a safe gamble. LONDON, March 20 - The R-100, an airship as big as the steamship Mauretania, is being built in England with such speed that it will be ready for a flight to America late this year. The plan of taking it to America reveals that the problem of developing motors suitable for tropical rotation is not being solved as quickly as the building of the airship itself. Originally it was intended to send it to India fitted with 150 horsepower motors living a mixture of kerosene and hydrogen.

PAY SAME NOW to the Secretary of your Branch, who will in turn forward same immediately to Headquarters, addressed to the Secretary-General, 142 West 130th Street, New York City FRED A. TOOTE, Acting President-General. It is for me officially to notify you of the serious condition affecting our very valuable Liberty Hall property at New York. Inspired by selfish motives, a few Negroes aided by certain real estate interests in the City of New York are making desperate efforts to acquire this property and so deprive the Association of its use. LIBERTY HALL was purchased by the Hon. Marcus Garvey in 1919 for the Universal Negro Improvement Association and improved at a total cost of $110,000. Up to February, 1925, when the Hon. Marcus Garvey was taken to prison, the Universal Negro Improvement Association had paid in a total of $71,700.00, leaving a balance of $38,300.00 divided up into a purchase-money mortgage of $22,000.00 held by the Metropolitan Baptist Church and a balance of two first mortgages of $2,000.00 and $14,300.00 respectively, held by the Emigrants Industrial Savings Bank. In November, 1926, a mortgage of $32,000.00 was placed on LIBERTY HALL by George A. Weston, ostensibly for the purpose of retiring certain judgments and mortgages accrued on the said property. This matter is now in the hands of the Supreme Court of the State of New York under an order to compel a proper accounting of the disbursement of the said $32,000.00. In January, 1926, the property was encumbered by a fourth mortgage of $6,300.00 placed there by George A. Weston. In March, 1926, when the present administration took over the affairs of the Association following the Detroit Extraordinary Convention, we found all of these encumbrances upon the LIBERTY HALL PROPERTY. Since coming into office it has reduced these encumbrances by $19,000.00 paid out from time to time. The administration has been confronted with great difficulties in its attempt to save LIBERTY HALL, due to the operation of certain sinister agents and their backers in an effort to acquire the LIBERTY-HALL PROPERTY and de- Iva Paae THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1927 ADVANCE! prive the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association of its use, thereby stultifying their endeavor to prosecute the program of "Africa for the Africans." To this end, one Casper Holstein, a Negro, upon his own application either in person or by attorney, purchased from the Emigrants Industrial Savings Bank two past-due first mortgages totaling $12,000.00 which the bank was quite willing to carry as long as the Universal Negro Improvement Association paid the interest on these mortgages. Just two days before an installment payment of $3,435.00 was due on our third mortgage, this Casper Holstein through his attorney notified us of the assignment of these two mortgages to him by the Emigrants Industrial Savings Bank and demanded payment from LIBERTY CRUSADERS' APPLICATION AND DONATION BLANK Date I desire to become a member of the LIBERTY CRUSADERS. Please find my donation of $. Kindly place my name on LIBERTY CRUSADERS' roll and forward me certificate of membership. Name Address State City Country us within twenty-four hours. The Association was not in position to comply with this demand and Casper Holstein began foreclosure proceedings to sell the LIBERTY HALL PROPERTY. There is not the slightest doubt that a concentrated effort is now being made to acquire this very valuable site. The holders of the third mortgage of $32,000.00, which is now reduced to $26,000.00, have also demanded payment in full by April 1st. Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the matter of continuing our ownership of LIBERTY HALL now rests entirely with us. Shall we continue to own it, or shall we succumb to the pressure of notorious Negroes aided by certain realty self-seeking interests?

Whatever be the dollars-and-cents cost of the LIBERTY HALL PROPERTY; it is a secondary matter to the millions of suffering Negroes throughout the world. The inspiration that they have received from time to time from the historic gatherings at LIBERTY HALL is far beyond pecuniary value. It is from LIBERTY HALL that millions have been inspired to race consciousness, and to allow this our LIBERTY HALL to succumb now for the lack of a little sacrifice upon the part of the members of our race would be an act no less amazing than tragic. LIBERTY HALL PROPERTY is a sacred heritage that must be kept to inspire the millions yet unborn. To the one hundred per cent. Negro LIBERTY HALL is to him what Runnymede is to Englishmen, Independence-Hall to the American and the Bastile to Frenchmen; for within the walls of this sacred shrine of Negro Liberty the Negro Bill of Rights, paralleling the English Magna Charta and the American Declaration of Independence, was signed by an International group of Negroes in the year 1920. LIBERTY HALL must be saved at all costs, for we cannot permit the self-seeking destroyers of Negro Liberty to put over such a sinister move at the expense of the race. Call out to the encroachers: "Woodman! Woodman! Spare that tree, Touch not a single bough; In youth its branches sheltered me And I'll protect it now" The Universal Negro Improvement Association calls upon each and every member scattered throughout the entire world to donate $5.00 or more within the next 90 days and help to save LIBERTY HALL, New York City.

Many Converts to Garveyism The next evening I spoke at the People's Theatre to an overwhelming audience. The Hon. S. M. McHershey, another member of the House of Assembly, was the chairman of the meeting and the Hon. Leon W. Young delivered an able address. Permit me to state here that the then prevailing sentiment of our was that Garveyism is an organization attempting to foster the disruption of the British Government, so much so that the four complex of many outstanding Negroes of Nassau compelled them to remain silent from the association, because of the belief that their licenses to phonetic law and medicine would be taken away from them. I was scheduled to be arrested on that Sunday night, then to be deported to America, and for the purpose these may emigrate and all of the government would be sent to working to make a victory in that of my speech. Of this I was subsequently informed by one who knew all about it. After that meeting I was privileged to speak in most of the biggest churches in Nassau and I many mention the name of some Zion M.

Open air meeting were held in the parks of Fox Hill, the suburban district of Nassau, and hundreds whose very souls were scaring for something to save them from the destruction that faces them helplessly. The British system of dividing Negroes for color and caste is playing in the Bahamas. I saw Negro curriers and handlers refusing to eat and dress the hair of Negroes because they happened to be black. Negroes see cream parlor refusing to allow black men and women to sit in their parlor room. Chinese restaurants refusing to serve Negroes because they are black, and in a country that is prependently black there is not a hotel where a black man can go. Light Negroes segregated from blacks and whites segregating all Negroes. Slightting Negro Assemblymen In Nassau, there are several large hotels.

Schoming to Oust Negro Civil Servants. In the very many government offices Negroes are to be found efficiently filling the positions, but because of the white populace's desire to secure these positions for white boys and girls, I went through the fortune of sitting in the House of Assembly one evening, and hearing debated and passed by a vote of 24.5, a bill giving the Governor-in-council (white man, of course from England) authority to dismiss from office any employee or the Civil Service, that they believe is not capable of holding said position. The bill is regarded by all Negroes of the House and of the Bahamas as aimed at the Negro employees. I must her state that the Negroes of Nassau within a short period will be a naturelity as far as politics is concerned. Every important position in the government is held by white men from England. The postmaster for the twenty years has been a Negro. He about to retire on pension and Dumfurum has it that a white man will fill his place. In the House, where therefore was a House of Negroes today where there are 29 representatives, 23 are whites and 6 Negroes. I cite these instances, so that Negroes may understand and see the well-organized system of the white world to forever relegate Negroes to the scrap heap in all spheres of endeavor. The cost of living in Nassau is at its peak, so much so that the Chief Justice, whose salary is £5,000, approximately $25,000 per year, had to seek another field, and in his forewheel address he mentioned the high cost of living as his chief reason for requesting a change. Soil water that is sold in the states for a nickel 18 cents, ordinary one-cent picture cards cost 3 cents, sweet potatoes that I saw retailed in New Orleans at 3 pounds for a dime cost 10 cents a pound in Nassau. You can thus imagine what the other commodities cost. The chief industries of Nassau are the sponge, fish and liquor trades, although one can get anything and everything to drink it is annoying that you don't see a drunken person on the streets. The masses of Negroes of the Bahamas are quixotic hoping that in better day may come especially economically, because this and lacking they are in a very cognitive mood to grasp the principles of the U. N. I. A. Thousands of them are unemployed and those that are employed cannot decently live because of the high cost of living, as heretofore mentioned. The conditions there are similar to other places and because of this the House recently passed a law that no Jamaican Negroes be permitted to engrate there. Imagine a British West Indian colony 90 per cent Negroes passing a law burning other West Indian Negroes. Where next shall Negroes be barred from? God only knows. I must especially make mention of and thank, the Hon. Leon W. Youns for the spirit he has demonstrated in taking to the fore so that Carvovism could get a hearing in Nassau and the hospitality he has shown no while there. My sincere thanks are due also that wonderful little woman, the mother of the Hon. Fred A. Toole, who did everything in her power to make my stay among the good people of the Bahamas a delight. "CHASING!" Youth in Africa Said To Be Learning Ways Of the Missionary (From a White Newspaper) Did you think that "flaming youth" is a product of modern America solely? Then think again. Youth also flames in darkest Africa. The Presidential Board of Foreign Missions reports that evangelistic work in the older fields of the West Africa mission is becoming increasingly difficult. In the old days the boys and girls wander of home and the old father lives. Now however they go, chasing off to enter trade while still in their town, and the dutzy elites do their best how to handle them. Apparently this "result of youth" is going on in the jungle as well as in the United States. IN YOU FOR Choosing the Utterance of Hon. Marcus Garvey Which Most Inspires Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association Delve Into One of the Most Remarkable Books of the Age and Write Essays on Inspirational Gems of Wisdom, All Pointing the Negro to a Newer and Higher Plane of Existence In this issue of The Negro World we publish one of the essays received to date in our Literary Contest. The response has been gratifying, indeed, but still the Contest Editor must complain that contestants in many instances fail to adhere to the instructions governing the contest. Only quotations which appear in the SECOND VOLUME of Hon. Marcus Garvey's book, "Philosophy and Opinions," or "Africa for the Africans," must form the subject of the essay, which must not exceed 500 words. Let it be again stated that all the contestant has to do is to choose from the book, "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," Vol. II, a brief passage, which in the contestant's judgment, is the most fearful and inspirational and which supplies the greatest racial urge, and tell in his essay the reasons for his choice. The passage chosen must be the spoken or written word of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. The Contest Editor hopes to see the stalwart women of the organization vying with the men for the front line in this contest. Send in your essays now. The essay printed below is from the pen of an ardent worker of the organization in Costa Rica and sets a fairly brisk pace. Put on your thinking caps, members, and let the world know how you react to the gems of utterances of your revered leader. Reproduced in "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey:" Vol. II, Page 103. Lam enamored of this passage and choose it because it is the equivalent to the utterances of the two greatest Bible characters, and carries the same meaning and force as those two injunctions. I refer to Christ's command (Luke x.38), "Go your ways, behold I send you forth on lamps among wolves," and St. Pauls (1 Corinthians xv1:13), "Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quire you like men be strong." I have not enough limit here to deliver into the details of comparison and parallelism in the three quotations. Suffice it to say that each one urges and inspires us to aspire. The above utterance of Marcus Garvey embraces everything that has been, to being, should be and will be said to Negro by way of adumbration. If Mr. Garvey said no more, he would have said sufficient to convert the most fastidious and indifferent and to arouse the most sleepy. It constitutes not only an individual and personal but a national and racial identity. It is a cell, not only to registered members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but also to the entire population of the colored world. It touches the chord on which are sounded the notes of truth, honesty, sincerity, unity, co-operation, brotherhood, liberty, racial pride and manhood and nationhood. The "new creation" implies a new era—a new dispensation for Negroes—embodying new alms, new motives, new visions, new ideas and ideals, a new historical, political and social world, a new economic and religious world for Negroes, and new Negro policies and adaptations. The term "strike" carries a nightly force and may be viewed from two angles. First, we are called upon to strike the blow for freedom. In full proportion to the force of the word we need force of mind, will, action, character and expression, and we, all, can develop some amount of force in our personality and individuality if we mean to strike effectively and achieve success. Right must continue to strike at Might It is neither the first nor the last blow of the hammer that splits the rock but the combined effort of all the blows, therefore we should strike together and strifle incessantly Gothic hatch broadcast this challenge. At in the time of David and Gothic hatch never sends a challenge. Might wounds, boastful challenges and even threat of attack and terrific, but as sure as the simplicity of a calling unquashed the monster of Goth, no doubt of the N. I. L. A. directed by God, must and will ultimately overthrow might— "For right is right since God is God, And right the day must win." The U. N. I. A. comes to teach, to pioneer and to enforce right, hence it is Gods instrument; it comes to duty, and shall achieve its end, which is the uplift of the Negro race and the redemption of Africa. Moses struck the flinty rock. The world of opposition is hard and adamantine, but we must strike at it, not rashly, not unscrupulously, not by open revolution, but with mild, quiet, level-headed force and strict diplomacy. The second view of the word "strike" is expressed in an almost everyday practical occurrence, and may be explained in but few words. We learn of industrial strikes here and there. To strike is to refuse to be or to do. Negroes must refuse to accept anything and any kind of place appointed to them by the other race and nations in this world that God has given to all mankind, and refuse to accept any kind of place in the world of fame, history and known lifetime to be any kind of man or woman. We must refuse to accept any dole or charity in any phase of life, but claim what is justly and rightly ours. Let us, therefore, strike, while the iron is hot. It is our duty to help towards the accomplishment of that time when the Negro shall sit under his own vine and fig tree, with none to make high afraid. Whites Too Were Once Slaves; Only Negroes Celebrate Emancipation WASHINGTON, March 25.—In addressing a meeting of colored people recently held in this city, Clarence Darrow, noted Chicago lawyer, who has rendered signal service to the race, said: "You have no monopoly in having been slaves. My own ancestors were slaves. That was a little farther back than when yours were slaves, but that makes no difference. You went through the same history as my ancestors did." But one does not hear of any other racial group holding annual amusement celebrations which serve to emphasize the lowly conditions of servitude through which their ancestors passed. Other people are so busy with affairs concerning their economic and cultural progress that they have no time nor inclination to celebrate or even to recall their emancipation from slavery. They seek no inspiration from their source, and so reference it to very unusual. To most of them it is forgotten history.—C. P. B. If not, you should join it.

'BORNO BAN' KEEPS ALIVE FICTION, SAYS SENATOR Haiti's President Puppet of State Department, Says Senator King—Will Continue Fight for Withdrawal of Marines—Laughs at Exclusion Returning on the transport St. Michel from a Caribbean tour, on which he was barred from Haiti as undesirable, United States Senator William H. King of Utah said last night that the State Department and the United States High Commissioner to Haiti had really participated in his exclusion by failing to employ what he termed their dominance over President Borno of Haiti to force the President to admit him. In an interview in the Hotel Pennsylvania the Senator said "President Borno has no power but what he gets from the State Department and General John H. Russell, the High Commissioner. He is merely a puppet. If the State Department and General Russell had demanded that I be admitted, President Borno would have raised the ban at once. By their failure to do this the State Department and General Russell acquiesced in my exclusion. "As for the State Department's instructions to General Russell to use FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH.

Gandarms at Border The Senator then turned to the excursion order of President Bornio, which directed General J. S. Turrell, American head of the Haitian gendarmerie, to strengthen his forces at the border to prevent Senator King's entrance. Smith at this reference to the extra precautions to guard against his entry, the Senator asserted that General Turrell had brought the order to the attention of High Commissioner Russell and asked to instructions from him. General Itussell, the Senator said, told General Turrell to carry out President Bornio orders. Senator King said he wished to make it clear that he never had intended an attempt to enter Haiti in defiance of the exclusion order. He said he felt that he should recognize the ruling of a do facto government no matter how tyrannous, and that another reason was that he feared that if no did go into Haïla opponents of him "anti-imperialistic" programs would have precipitated a conflict between the crowds that planned to welcome him and the gendarmerie, and that the onus of the disturbance would then have been placed on the welcomers. To Renow Demand in Senate Assorting that he would again move in the Senate to force evacuation of our military forces from Haiti, the Senator said he would not ask an senatorial investigation of the exclu- sion incident.

HAVE YOUR CHILDREN TRAINED ALONG RACE LINES OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey CONSIDERABLE discussion has been caused by the suggestion of Frederick L. Collins in the Woman's Home Company that 100,000 churches in the United States should be abandoned and demolished, so that the remainder could be more efficient. He points out the 200,000 churches in the country belonging to 200 denominations represent an investment of three billion dollars and cost three hundred million dollars yearly to maintain, but, he says, they are only open three times per week for religious services, therefore he offers the following suggestions: "I immediate reduction, by at least one-half, of the number of existing places of worship without reducing existing opportunities for worship. "Use of the savings thus realized for vigorous expansion of religious work in the communities affected. "Sale or abandonment of unusual, unneeded and parasitic church structures. "Freeing of denominational funds now required to assist in the maintenance of such structures." "Use of the funds thus liberated for the strengthening of religious work throughout the World. "Church reduction viewed in the light of these simple common-sense measures is not a blow at religious prestige. It is a blow at dry-rot. It is solemn recognition that the average church of our forefathers with its frigid auditorium, its clammy vestry and its stuffy ladies' parlor is no more fit to meet modern conditions than cavalry, was fit to fight the last war—than infantry will be the next. It is a solemn resolve to get churches that are fit and will be effective. "Not churches of men. Churches of God! Mr. Collins exempts the Catholic church and he gives this reason that this church "performs so many services for its people which he Protestant church does not attempt, that it cannot be judged by the same standards." The surplus of churches, despite the continued increase in population, has been created by the rivalry of denominations in erecting buildings, without a thought as to the possible shifting of congregations due to economic causes. The all-important work of most church-goers is to build and pay mortgages, the other requirements, such as saving souls, leading exemplary lives, social and welfare work, is secondary because the results cannot be seen by every passerby to evoke their envy. Each little church-group wants to be housed in a magnificent structure so that they may have something to show off on. Christians are divided into so many denominations that their influence is becoming negligible among the so-called heathen of Asia and Africa. They cannot understand why Roman Catholics commit a sin when they enter a Protestant church to worship God; or the Baptist submerge their candidates, while the Episcopalians believe that laying on of hands by the Bishop is the correct form and condemn the Baptists for their form of submerging; or why the Holy Rollers should on the ground as a manifestation of praise to God; and, above all, the heathen is at a loss to understand why all Christian preachers should say after Jesus of Nazareth: "Man, love thy brother as thyself," when they make no effort to carry out His doctrine in their contact one with another. With an awakened East, questioning and accusing it, it is necessary for Christians to forget denominational rivalries, and unite to make Christianity a living gospel and not a theory.

Radio Concert The Saturday night program of WEAF was heard on board the Royal Mail steam packet motor ship Asturias, as she rode at anchor in Port Natal Bay off Durban, South Africa, according to a cable received yesterday by Frederick G. Heller, New York traffic manager of the line. The program was broadcast on a special wave length from the General Electric Co plant at Schenectady. It was picked up at the municipal radio station at Durban and relayed to the ship. All of the passengers on the Anturian, which is on an African coastal cruise, had retired when the program began. They were roused by the ship's officers and all assembled in the cabin to listen to the entertainment. The program as broadcast on the low wave length of WGY followed a special message of greeting to the Mayor and people of Durban. The feature of the program was a symphony concert conducted by Walter 'Damrosch. The cable received by Mf. Heller was sent by Walter C. Raddle, cruise director of the American Express Company. It read 'Damrosch 'Tannhauser' music clearly heard. Greetings to passengers in jungle, wishing us good times and safe return. Also greetings to Mayor of Durban heard.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1927 MAXIM GORKY FEARS FOR SINFUL EUROPE Says Expiation May Be "Too Terrible" While the leaders of Soviet Russia are welcoming the awakening of the Far East, as exemplified by the Nationalist movement in China and the recent revolts in the Dutch East Indies, Maxim Gorky fears that all Europe may have to pay a heavy price for this modernization of the mentality of Asia Interviewed recently] in his villa near Sorrento, Italy, by Paul Vanderborgh, a Belgian writer for Le Poople, the Bussels Socialist daily, Gorky revealed great interest in developments in the Near and Far East. He said that he feared that some day, more or less distant, Europe might be ground under the heels of the Oriental peoples freed from their present restraints. "It is true," he said to M. Vanderborgt, "that old Europe has sinned a great deal. But its expiation might be too terrible." When his interviewer remarked that the Colonial forces of Great Britain, France and Holland were still solid, Gorky replied that this force was only superficial, and had no control over the souls of the Asiatic masses. Consequently, when the millions of the East became more intelligently aware of their strength and united their now divided forces, the tiny European minority "on guard" in the Orient would find itself in a difficult position. Asked what he thought could be done to avoid such a遭遇, Gorky said he hoped for good results from a friendly and far-seeking rapprochement between the intellectuals of Europe and the Orient. He expressed approval of the work along this line already being done by the "Amittes Belgo-Egyptiennes." But the Belgian writer pointed out that Gosky must not forget that the intellectual rapprochement between France and Germany, difficult as it might appear to many, was child's play compared with the task of effecting mutual understanding between two currents of human thought so diverse as those of the East and the West M. Vanderburgt expressed doubt as to the possibility of a realization of Gorky's hopes for a peaceful settlement of the problem of the Orient unless "there is a radical change in the policy of European imperialism." THE FLY IN CHURCH (Jocelyn C. Lea in the Spectator) My kinties on each side of me are kneeling in a line* I wonger if their hassocks are as full of plus daphnie; I think they must have asked the hens to teach them how to perch. I found a fly in church today—a fly who'd hurt his wing; It happened just as every one was standing up to sing "There's a Friend for little Children up above the bright blue sky"— I might have been so good if they had let me keep that fi. I thought of such a lovely game—I didn'tidget then— The fly must walk across my book before I counted ten. But just as he was nearly there the Man said, "Let us pray." And aunties shook their heads at me and brushed my fly away. The pew is very dark and high, and I am very small. And Aunties say it's wrong in church to look about at all I think the window's open where 'the glass is painted red For I can feel a scrap of sky that's shining on my head. Oh, Friend for little children. You're once as small as me. You know how, very, very dull a child in church can be. And if You're hiding just above that tiny patch of sky. Be sorry for a little boy—and send another fly! Why We Should Eat Green Leaf Vegetables They contain the vitamins necessary to growth and health. They supply a large amount of mineral matter, especially iron and calcium. They give bulk to the diet and get ahead to proper elimination. They supply flavor to the diet and help to make a balanced meal. They are so important to proper nutrition that two should be served each day, one of which may be a salad.

For information write to CIRCULATION DEPARTMENT THE ENSLAVED CANNOT BE RULED FOREVER Useless, Job, Says French Minister of Interior — Preligious Races Will Submerge Others M.J. Albert Sarraut, French Minister of the Interior, presided recently at a banquet of the Union Medicale France-Amérique Légine. For a number of years he was Governor General of French Indo-China, where he aided in the intellectuel and social uplift of the colony, according to the Paris correspondent of the Journal of the American Association, so that the natives were gradually fitted for administrative positions in collaboration with medical school and training school for nurses for the benefit of the Anglo- "He stated that physicians exercise a preponderant influence in the inculcation of European culture in the minds of the natives," says the correspondent. "The physician is welcomed as a benefactor, combating, as he does, disease, diseases, and also seeking to reduce their infant mortality. The colonial physician, venturing into the 'bush', full of dangers from micro-organisms, human beings and animals, carries with him the blessings of vaccination and of remedies with which to combat malaria, yellow fever, typhoid and trypanosomiasis. Many have died, comparatively unknown, in this mission. "Sarraut emphasized that the nation that undertakes such a cultural mission is not working solely for itself; for, after a period of heavy expense associated with great risks, there follows a second period of commercial advantage, of benefit mainly to groups of merchants, and then comes a third period with few returns." In lowering the child mortality of the conquered race, a greater number of workers become available. When the child mortality has been reduced, the native race will multiply rapidly and because of their feignidity will overwhelm the less fertile Europeans. With a forward look to that inevitable outcome, we must now prepare the natives to perform administrative work and to make of them sincere collaborators. It would be useless to try to rule forever an enslaved people, for the prolific races are destined to submerge the less fruitful, through the operation of an inexorable biologic law. France needs a large number of colonial physicians. "Although the address was received with great interest, the comments in the press did not assume a hopeful tone. The number of colonial physicians is decreasing in spite of the fact that good schools of colonial medicine are being opened." The life of the colonial physician is hard and dangerous, while the compensation is inadequate. A large proportion of colonial physicians die young, leaving widows with slender pensions. "If colonial physicians were adequately paid and if large firms in the colonies which are primarily benefited by their efforts would assist in paying the salaries of colonial physicians, it would be much easier to induce young men to take up the work. The positions that a physician may secure in the metropolis are less lenisome and are more likely to lead to more advantageous posts. In these times, with the increasing cost of living, it is not possible to tempt men with fair words." Russia Teaches Chinese Girl to Make Rifles MOSCOW.-Miss Fong Fong Pa. 13-year-old daughter ofong Yu-hailing the orstrwhile "Christian General," has completed her practical course in a Soviet-machine shop and now is studying Russian, which, according to reports, she finds more difficult than making parts for pistols, rifles and machine guns. The Chinese girl was one of the most export apprentices at operating a lathe. The General's second wife and six children are living in Moscow, where the latter are being educated. In addition to learning the machinist trade Fong Fong is a frequent visitor at the Communist University, where her diligence is held up as an example to adult pupils. In connection with Russian interest in China, the presence of the Fong family here is causing much attention Turks Angry Ovet Reforms for Women SAMARKAN, Turkestan March 21 Tukestan is in a ferment over feminist reforms initiated by the Commute. The campaign to abolish the veil and liberate Moslem women from the harem is gaining great momentum. To date more than 1 000 women in the Samarkand district have forsaken the yahmak. Mohammendan priests who bitterly oppose any new ideas, have spread proclamations attacking the authors of the movement as renegades, heretics and blasphemers of Koranic law. This has led to numerous acts of violence NOTES OF INTEREST Our Great Weakness Our weakness as a rage lies in our lack of grit in the lack of sustained effort, for when we try at first and fall then we abandon all further efforts. This is where the white man beats us and has the mastery over us, for when he tries at first and falls, or even falls at the seventh time, he does not slacken his efforts once he has convinced himself that the object before him is worth struggling for.-Gold Coast Times. Time Sobers Men Less than eight years ago some Germans arrived in Paris officially to represent their country at the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. They were confused behind barbed wire like beasts in a menagerie. No one welcomed them, no one offered to associate with them; sullied crowds watched them exercise behind their bars. Now, in March, 1927 we have the extraordinary spectacle of another German presiding over the meeting of the Council of the League of Nations—presiding over the successors of those Allied statesmen who thought barbed wire and non-intercourse the wise and manly way to treat a heden enemy—The Nation World Peace I & Bunk For centuries man has purged the great delusion that it was possible to eliminate war from the world, and during the World War one of the battlecries of the propagandist war that the conflict was a war to end war. Yet less than a decade after this war-to-end-war, the world remains under arms and in one of the most populous countries of the earth armies locked in a death struggle for the right to govern four hundred millions of human beings, while the great posters stand on the sidelines in danger of being drawn into this new conflict of war. World's Work Europe. In Ferment Italy has signed the treaty recognizing Rumagia's possession of Bessarabia, and once more the European chancellors are thrown into a ferment Russia, which has never abandoned hope of seizing Bessarabia, regards this act by Italy as a slap in the face from a nation with which the Soviet government has long enjoyed amicable relations. Moscow, which believes that it is being subjected to a British policy of health encumlement, looks upon Italy's action as the result of "Austin Chamberlain's successful diplomacy, and as not unconnected with Italian support for British policy in China, France is disturbed over the break-up of the Little Entente and the removal of Rumania from her sphere of influence to that of Italy, Jugoslavia, already profoundly agitated because of Italy's treaty with Albania, sees the potential enemy across the Adriatic wielding a much augmented power in the Balkans.

I have seen more millions of them entirely happy in revising the Sermon on the Mount to read 'Lots of men can serve two masters.' We can serve God and Mammon. I have seen still more millions of equally excellent Christians take the name of God in vain and in the jolliest manner imaginable. "Here I have heard faithfully, of course, I don't believe a word of it that the greatest city in this Christian America has smashed the world record for crime and that its expensive paved streets are buried under the fragments of the Ten Commandments. "I have seen that old fashioned thing — which we Japanese still think a good deal of called parental control because a lost art among the Christian people in this country." These and a few other things have had their effect upon me, of course. I am wondering if Christianity in Christendom is dry-rotting.

COURT BANS FILIPINO PORTIA Princess Tarhata is Ousted From Counsel Table at Husband's Trial JOLO, Island of Sulu, March 16 The illustrious Princess Tarhata Kram, former University of Illinois coed, who recently figured in the rebellion staged by her husband, Datu Tahil, was removed from the counsel table at his trial on sedition charges here today, because she attempted to play the role as a modern Fortin. The princess, who is the fourth and favorite wife of Tahil and a niece of the Sultan of Sulu, is being held in semi-confinement as a result of the Tahil escapade. She held an attack on Tahil's fortifications by entering his stronghold and exposing herself to danger in the event of a constabulary attack. The constabulary hesitated to attack while the princess was in the fort, because her injury or death would have ground the centre Moppi tribe. As a result Tahil and the princess escaped, but were captured later. When the time comes that the black man cries, gives me liberty or give me death, in a voice so loud that it resounds throughout the world, then, and then only, will we become a great race. Away with the suppliant pleading, away with this glibberage about giving offenses. Does the white man pague to consider the possibility of giving offense when, he deliberately takes from the black man his God given rights? The man without pigment has no right to dictate to another man because of his pigmented skin. Of this race come Jedys Christ! Jesus Christ was born in Africa. A Jew, yes—a black Joan. We have a right to protect our liberties—yes, even by the aid of a gun.

AMERICAN STUDENT SUICIDES ON INCREASE AMERICAN STUDENT SUICIDES ON INCREASE Cause Laid to Hypocrisy and Venality of Society Within the last three months over twenty white students have committed suicide in America. Many theories have been advanced as to the cause of their acts James Lawlor, writing to the New York Evening World, recently comes nearest solving the puzzle, because he strikes at the root of the problem by writing the cover off "white civilization." He states: Max Gerson is puzzled by the number of student suicides. He wonders if these suicides are attributable to any disturbing factors in modern society. I rather think they are—primarily to the acquisitive concept of life and to the poor examples being set by those who are supposed to be superior. The great demand today is for optimistic twaddle, for people who say that everything's fine—whether it is or not. Insecurity has boomed so brazen that our celebrities accept money to publicly recommend to others articles they would not think of using themselves. To be straightforward is to be at a disadvantage. Honest criticism in tahoo—it isn't "constructive." You must boost or be damned. On all sides we are adjudged to have faith, and the less actual ground there is for faith, the more voluminous are the exhortations. We either worship the god of business or make a business of the worship of God. Paragons of professional righteousness are daily engaged in escapades that rival the rigoury of Casanova and Capt. Kidd. Hence the veritable deluxe of nifty to obscure the facts. Obviously, bactial cunning usurps the place of integrity. The great dictumum is not to develop ones character, but to learn the trick of "healing the other, follow the other." The standard of judgment is not what you are, but how much have you got. Yes, it is deplorably true that many youngsters are taking their own lives, patiently as an alternative to smirking with the hosts of Sham.

El caucásico, el malavo y el etiópico—Tres seres con distinta pigmentación vinieron al mundo—Dos de ellos se armaron agarrando la espada y el fusil—¿Para matar a quien?—Tal vez a aquel tercero sin preparación. A continuación publicamos el tercer estracto del gran discurso pronunciado por el Hon. Marcus Garvey, el 20 de noviembre de 1921 en la ciudad de Washington, y del cual nos ocupamos en nuestros dos números, anteiores: Me he propuesto a que el Africa sea libre, pero los críticos de mi propia raza dicei: Como puede usted libertar el Africa cuando Gran Bretaña tiene partes en el oeste, norie y sur de ese continente; España con posesiones en el norte, Francia con dominio en el septentrion y en las costas occidentales al igual que Italia, etc.? Por estos motivos ellos dicen y creen que es imposible la liberación de Africa. Pero nada se hace imposible bajo el sol. Todos lo que vosotros veis a vuestro rededor ha sido posible por el hombre. Lo que el hizo en el futuro, podrá hacer en el presente y en el porvenir. Háblando de la imposibilidad de liberar el Africa del control de la Gran Bretaña, que es lo que hay de imposible en ello? Si nosotros estuviesemos ya organizados como estamos tratando de hacerlo ahora; si siete años ha hubieramos contado con una organización de esta naturaleza, hoy dia tuvieramos un Africa libre de la inniscuisión extranjera. Si nuestros padres hubiesen predicado la doctrina de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, nuestros representantes tendrian hoy asiento en la conferencia del desarme en Washington. Nosotros hubieramos representado probablemente la nación mas grande del mundo, y ningun otro pais ajustaria sus intereses particulares, sin contar con Africa para las decisiones consiguientes. Mas nuestros padres no tuvieran esa visión y ya se ha dicho que donde no haya visión la raza percee. Ahora bien ¿cual es la visión del negro? ¿Cual ha sido siempre su visión? Cuando surgio este magno movimiento emancipador de nuestra raza y asistias a sus reuniones y otras actividades, ¿cual era pues vuestra visión? ¿Cual era vuestro propósito? ¿Pueda alguien recordar el haber asistido a esa clase de reuniones siete u cho afos ha, en este país o en las antillas? Todo cuanto hacíamos entonces era ir a la iglesia, y allí cantar y rezar; regresar a nuestro hogres, comer, cantar y orar de nuevo. La visión de salvarnos en el mas allá era pues nuestra idea; eso componia nuestra mas apreciada ambición. En toda asamblea de los irlandeses, en toda reunión de los judios, en los movimientos civico de los italianos, en los de los franceses por centurias pasadas, todos estos publos han tenido una visión y un proposito. No veréis media docena de irlandeses reunidos, ino discuten alguna visión. Mas estás acostumbrados a ver cientos de negros palmotazado, sin nada que justifique la algazara que, celebren. Pero el mundo no se mueve de esa manera. El mundo se nueve por grandes ametralladoras, y la raza ó la nación que tenga a sus disposición grandes cafiones, es la que reclama la atención del mundo. Hasta que vosotros no consigiais lo que los otros tienen a sus disposición, estad seguros que no seréis oidos. Entendedme como un hombre práctico. La cuestión no es tahto en lo que al color respecta. La cuestión en América entre negros y blancos no es tanto por el color, como no es esto lo primordial en todo el mundo. Ello es simplemente cuestión de cantidad y de fuerza. Cuánto tenéis? Ese es el problema. Si el hombre negro no posee nada, no es nadie. Si el hombre blanco es un patán, tampoco es nadie. Hombres de nuestra raza, adquirid algo; tratad de conseguir lo mismo que tienen los otros y aspirad cada día a tener mas si podéis. En ello pues estirava vuelva sración. Sóy un carácter sospechoso; demasíado sospechoso. Y sabeis porque? Porque he estudiado este mundo muy detenidente. El gran Arqueóctos creó e todos: blancos, negros y amarillos, y nos coloco en este planeta al mismo tiempo. Tres infantes al mundo; uno negro, un blanco y el otro amarillo. Cuando vió la luz el blanco no existia medio de destrucción alguno; lo propio sucedió cuandó el negro y el amarillo salieron del seno materno. Los tres crecieron y llegaron a ser hombres. Y de repente veo que el blanco se arma poderosamente con espada, cañon y pólvora. El amarillo, al verlo tan apertrchado, también se apresura y se provee de las mismas armas; y en esta posición se encuentran hoy mirandose frente a fronte armados hasta los dientes, pero témiéndose y respetandose al mismo tiempo. Que sucede? El infante negro que vino al mundo al mismo tiempo que los otros dos, y sabiliendo que no trajeron armamento alguno, los ve ahora hechos hombres a su igual pero con todos los arreos de dominio. En vez de hacer un estuero y consignuirse los implemento que poseen el blanco y el amarillo, el negro se detiene anadón, mirando a los otros dos sin ninguna iniciativa para su propia defensa. Que se proponen el ellos? Van en busca de alguien para asesinarle. Esto es tan claro como el dia. Van a hacer algun daño. Ahora bien, estando el blanco y el amarillo en iguales condiciones de combate, seria una aberración el irse a las manos. Van en busca de aquel que les perturba su paso y carece de los medios de defensa para asegurar su posición en el planeta. Indefenlo, el ignorante, el poco práctico será la victima. Last of Men Will Be Eligible for Paroles in February, 1928 Of 63 Tried by Court-Martial, 18 Were Executed WASHINGTON, March 8. President Coolidge today cut eighteen months off the thirty-year sentences of twenty Negroes, former members of the Twenty-fourth Infantry, who originally were sentenced to death or life imprisonment for participation in the race riots at Houston, Texas, on the night of August 28, 1917. By the action of the President, taken on recommendation of the War Department, the men will become eligible for parole within the next year. With their release the last of the thirty-three Nigers soldier tried by the court-martial for participation in the rioting that caused avalanche deaths in Hopton will be taken off the prison rolls.

Of twenty-nine sentenced to death, eighteen were executed under the wartime authority of departmental military commanders to approve death sentencess. The names of the twenty affected by President Coolidge's action announced today were not made public by the War Department. It was said, however, that sixteen would be eligible for parole in June, two more in December and the last two in February, 1928. HOUSTON, Texas, March 8—Houston vividly recalls the riots on the night of August 28, 1917, when about 100 Negro soldiers of the Twenty-fourth Infantry mutinied—killed several of their white officers, seized some of the arms in camp and, infamed with Ignorant, began a march toward Houston. On the way the Negress shot and killed several persons, but finally were husted by Houston policemen and squads of armed civilians in the Negro section where the rolters arrived after travelling more than two miles from Cump Logan, their quarters, then under construction. Meanwhile the news had gone out over the State that Houston was in danger of destruction at the hands of the rolters and a few hours later special trains loaded with soldiers from Fort Sam Houston at San An- THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1927 En pro de la libertad de nuestro leader Es mas que alentador el saber que el esfuerzo con el objeto de adquirir la libertad del Hon. Marcus Garvey, president general de esta organización, se manifiesta mas persisteente que anuncia, y que no solamente los miembros sino también distinguidos ciudadanos, del país, demuestran gran interes sobre el particular. Este es el único medio para obtener el perdon en cuestion. La persistencia es el gran factor en la adquisición del objeto anhelado. Gran parte de nuestro elemento fracasa regularmente en sus empresas, porque se cansa muy pronto dando lugar a que sus ideales mueran al nacer. "Ello es un enorme contrapezo. para los que aceptan una influencia tal, no teniendo fuerza suficiente para levantarse y caninar hacia la victoria. Afortunadamente en los esfuerzos que se llevan a cabo o obtener el perdon del Hon. Marcus Garvey, no se ha dejado sentir la influencia del pesismo. Estos esfuerzos encieran en si el amor y la admiración de los miembros de la organization, así como también la imparcialidad de los muchos admiradores del programa de nuestro magno movimiento. Las masas conocen el valor de esta obra emancipadora, y ven la urgente necesidad de que su leader dirija personalmente sus actividades. Opinamos que los desesos de la justicia, segun la disposición de la corte que juzgó al Hon. Garvey, estan mas que satisfechos con los dos años de encarcelamiento, ya servidos por el en la penitenciaria de Atlanta. Ninguna satisfación has de dimanar de la continuación de su encerramento. Muy por el contrario, esto injuriar grandemente las actividades así como los intereses de la organización, privando a su leader de la dirección personal de sus multímpies asuntos. Nadie podra entender y dirijir acertadamente una obra, como aquel que colocó sus cimientos y trazó los planes del curso que haya de seguir en su desarrollo, mediante una serie de años de estudio detenido. Esta lógica es aplicable a la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. El Hon. Garvey entiende a ciencia cierta la labor de la organización; de ello estan muy competetados los miembros de la misma. La influencia, la personalidad de su fundador es para ellos una inspiración, con la cual abrigan grandes esperanzas. Es igualmente necesario el que los componentes de esta magna organización de nuestra raza, mantengan su devotion hacia su labor sosteniéndola incolume, por ser el programa que ella sustenta. la unica esperanza para la solución del intrincado problema del negro. Sostened intacta la organization en vuestras divisions locales; por aportar vuestra cuota regularmente, cooperando así a la buena marca eq la consumación del programa establecido. Nada postemos adquirir aunque ella haya sido nuestra propiedad, a menos que no sea por medio de una determinación incuestionable. Siempre hay alguien que maniobra para posicionarse de aquello que a otros pertencece, sin poner reparos para obtenerlo. Para retener lo que poseamos es necesario también una gran persistencia. Pongamos pues en ejercicio todas nuéstras fuerzas en pro de la libertad de nuestro gran leader, martir de la causa redentora de una raza, y pronto le veremos de nuevo ocupando su histórico puesto en el Liberty Hall de Nueva York, enviando su mensaje de inspiración a los huestes del movimiento, quijenes ven en el, el gran piloto que ha de conducir a puerto seguro nuestra nave de redención. tohio and Fort Crockett at Galveston arrived in the city. Mental law was declared and the Negroes work rounded up gradually. A count of the dead and injured showed twenty white persons had been killed and more than that number injured. The Negro soldier, "the record shown, had been angered by a controversy between a Negro military policeman and a white policeman. in the streets of Houston during the afternoon. The military map claimed precedence in the matter of traffic orders over the white man. Manpower Works Clock LONDON, March 19 — For one day the first in its history—the great clock at St. Paul's Cathedral has been worked by hand. Second by second its great hand was pushed forward by a workman, taking the time from his watch. The mechanism was out of order. In ordinary circumstances the clock would have been stopped during repairs, but so many Londoners set their watches by St. Paul's that it was decided not to fall them. The clock was out under "Great Paul," the biggest ball in the Cathedral, in 1892. Tomando la ley en sus manos El azote en Georgia ha levantado a personas religiosas de ochenta a una congregaciones en ese estado a tal indignación que se ha llevado una petición al gobernador para castigar a los culpables. En una resolución adoptada, el Christian Council que representa estas congregaciones, hicieron su petición al jefe ejecutivo, declarando que Georgia empieza a desgracirse ante los ojos del mundo. Un estudio hecho por la Atlanta Constitution dio lugar a los recientes escandalos fuesen conocidos por el público. En el distrito de Toombs, se dice que bandas enmascaradas daban palizas semanales por más de un año. El total de 'las personas que se cree han sido azotadas suman a más de cien, en ese distrito y en el de Treutlen, donde el director de la Soptaston News fue azotado; el corresponsal del Constitution dice que sus investigaciones demostran que dos grupos tomaron la ley en sus manos; y coparon con los que son partidarios de la ley y orden. Bandas enmascaradas en el distrito de Toombs, el corresponde dice, han dado de latizagos a mujeres; estonas bandas se paseaban en ropones y otros uniformes. Entre las victimas hay un hombre que se dice que habia abandonado a su mujer y otro que la banda creyó que no habia pagado su multa con rapida bastante por violación de la lev de prohibición, una mujer acusada por sus asaltantes de tener relaciones ilicitas con un hombre que era un truqu, un padre, e hija un sacerdote y una mujer casada pronta a ser madre.

Turkish Woman Is 160 Years Old CONSTANTINOPLE, March 20. The Turkish feminist movement has reached the stage where even the claim to being the oldest living Turk has been taken from the man who long held it. Zaro Agha, whose age in given as 183 years, has ceded his longevity title to Fatma Hapon, who has just arrived at Angora From the Thracian wilds, claiming her age to be 160 years. As proof she gives many reminiscences of events that took place more than 100 years ago. One of her recollections, sage says, is the massacre of the Janissaries more than a century ago, her son being among the famed warriors who were killed by Sultan Mahmud when he feared their power was becoming too great. A man in South Africa has just papered his room with 500,000 used postage stamps. AND GET QUICK RESULT70 Magazine Section. AFRICA'S CONTRIBUTION TO FAMILY OF NATIONS Perhaps by far the greatest contribution Africa has yet made and the most straining of all her acts of generosity towards the Family of Nations was that which immediately followed the abolition of the slave trade. In West Africa, where I came from, the same attempt to deprive the aborigines of the ownership of their lands seems to have then going on for several years past. I need not waste your time any longer on these side issues. I feel my territory becomes wholly of a political nature, and I am sure you will find no difficulty in accepting my apology here for the long divergence when I tell you here that the land question is of so serious a nature to an African that he can go the length of tolerating you if you were to deprive him of all his clothes, his money, even his wives, and all that strictly constitute African personal property, but when it comes to the question of his land he is quite ready to fight you to the grave if you dare contemplate depriving him of it, no matter what way or method you take to make him aware of this. In this connection I shall simply refer you to the following British Colonial Government legislative tendencies as disclosed in 1. The Crown Land Bill of 1894 (Gold Coast). 2 The Bands Ordinance of 1897 (Gold Coast). 8. The Forest Bill of 1911 (Gold Coast) 4 The judgment in the 'Forestboro Case' of 1011 (Lagos) and the debate in the Legislative Council at Lagos on the Iroquois Ordinance, 1908, the Oluwa case of 1921, and the recent Have You a Furnished ROOM You would like to rent to a desirable tenant?

All this seems to have come about through Africa's unrestricted generosity in her contribution towards the progress of the Family of Nations there seems to be one peculiar kind of quota Africa will one day be said to have contributed to the Family of Nations. This seems to consist in the new branch of the negro race now springing up everywhere and increasing in number, i.e. the childoon of the mixed blood of white and black. This may appear at present to ordinary man as unimportant, but in my opinion, which has also received support from the opinion of several professors of the world, this new race of men would appear to solve in the near future the present racial antagonism and if this comes to be true, then it is to be credited to Africa as one of her quotas towards the progress of the Family of Nations. Lust but not least, from point of religion, it is a familiar fact that Africa had played a great part in the cause of at least three great religions recognized among the Family of Nations today. The great Jewish lawgiver was a 'native of Africa'—that is to say, he was born there and brought up in the King's Court, so that there he acquired much that was afterwards useful for him to inspire those sacred laws and ordinances which he gave to the Hebrew nation and indirectly to the world at large. Africa gave shelter to our Lord Jesus, when the principalities of the world rose up to murder Him so as to put an end to the glid tidings of 'peace and goodwill' which He brought to mankind. It was also to Africa that the Prophet Mahomet fled when his countrymen rose against him in order to put an end to his religious teachings, which today have done much for the good of mankind What. Do You Know of the Decalogue? CHICAGO. March 18 — Ignorance of their own basic laws among church people has led the Northwestern Christian Advocate, a publication of the Methodist Episcopal Church here, to conclude that America does not know the Ten Commandments—at least not well enough to buy them. “There must be no false faces before me,” was one of the most glaring examples of ignorance obtained in a two-month test just concluded by the Advocate. “Keep away from your neighbors’ wife,” another, quoted in a variety of ways. “One investigator,” the paper says, “believed she found signs of unusual training among Catholics, another found Catholics sharing ignorance along with the Protestants; and a third, sure Catholicism had, failed to teach the Decalogue at all. "Boys and girls in the Sunday schools were found to be letter perfect in reciting the commandments—providing no more than a year bad elapsed since they studied them. Otherwise there was no marked difference among juniors and adults." Women scored a little higher than men "Among answers listed were: "You should not take your neig' hors' cow" "There is a song about water under the earth" "One says something about adultery and having other Gods" "Thou shalt not murder" (quoted by a police magistrate) Of those who answered any commandments, most got "thou shalt not commit adultery" identified correctly.
