XXII. No. 9 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, APRIL 9, 1927 FIVE CENTS IN GREATER NEW YORK TEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE U. S. A. TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES Hon. Marcus Garvey In Plea for Racial Solidarity Bids Negroes Remember They Are the Balance of Power We print below the fifth and last instalment of a remarkable address delivered by the Hon. Marcus Garvey, founder and President-General of the Unifiversal Negro Improvement Association, at Washington, D. C., on November 20, 1921: "As for me and mine we shall work, work, work in this generation that our children, succeeding generations of Negroes, shall see on the broad squares of Africa; on the avenues of Africa, monuments—monuments of loyalty, monuments of chivalry, monuments of patriotism, testifying to the valor and the deeds achieved by Negroes of the twentieth century, to hand down to posterity an empire upon which the sun will never set. (Applause.) As I pay my periodical visit to Washington, the capital city of America, I go to Mount Vernon to pay homage to the greatest American hero, George Washington; so do I hope your children and mine in days to come in Africa will, whenever they visit the national capital of Africa, go two or three miles out and pay homage to some Negro Napoleon who will have freed and redeemed Africa. And where is that Napoleon? I see him in Washington tonight even as I see him everywhere among Negroes wherever I have been. Who can tell that you will not be the Napoleon to take down from the walls the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green and say to four hundred million Negroes, 'Follow me'? (Applause.) "Men, let me emphasize again what other men have done you must do or you must die. Can you do it? The answer is echoed from all over the world, from four hundred million Negroes, 'We can do it; we shall.' (Applause.) We did it in France, we did it in Flanders, we did it in Mesopotamia, and we shall do it again on the battle plains of Africa. (Applause.) There can be no peace without an inclusion in that peace of the liberty and freedom of four hundred million Negroes the world over. I do not care who talks about peace. I do not care how many shout peace. There can be no peace until four hundred million Negroes are free. (Applause.) We mean it, we mean it with our manhood, with the last drop of our blood. (Applause.) We are sick and tired of this old-time thing now. This lynching and burning and all kinds of things the world over—we are sick and tired of it, and we cry out to Heaven that we are tired. We are tired, we are tired, and therefore we seek liberty and must have liberty. (Applause.) "I have but one life to give. A man dies but once. I have never seen the fellow who dies twice except the coward. The coward dies a thousand times before his death; a brave man dies once. I have but one life to give. The other day I could have given it in Flanders and France for a class of people who should have been punished for their iniquities. I would have died in France and Flanders for the Belgian—that Belgian-Hun who massacred my brother, my sister, my mother, my father, in the Congo not very long ago—cut off their hands, cut off their feet, cut off their ears, maimed them because they did not produce enough rubber to satisfy the Belgian Trust. They did that to my people in Africa not many years ago, and just seven years ago I was called out to fight for them. But, thank God; I did not get there. I did not get there. I believe God is with this race as He is with all races. Just at the time when I was to be called up, the Kaiser said, 'Stay there, I am going to throw up my hands,' and that saved me from an untimely death. And since I was so near to death for something bad, I mean to die for something good. We came near death, didn't we? All of you Negro folk, you colored folk. We came near death the other day, dying for nothing. Now, since you were saved, and you must die again, take my advice and die next for something good. The Balance of Power "The Negro has started out to think for himself, and some of us believe we should not talk so openly. What are you hiding? What are you hiding? Continue to hide, and everybody will believe you are not here. Talk out. Now is the time to talk out. And you know why I am talking so loudly and so long and so emphatically? Because the Negro is the balance of power in the world today. Nothing can be said, nothing. can be determined without the Negro. Thank God for that. You let them go to war tomorrow morning, and you will find they can't stop until they ask the Negro. They can't do anything in the world without the Negro. He is the balance of power. Europe is watching Asia, and Asia is watching Europe, and Africa is looking on. And Europe and Asia can settle nothing without the assistance of Africa. And let me tell you this. Africa is going to bargain for something, when Africa is to go on one side or the other. Africa shall not be parceled out. For Africa is my heritage; Africa is your heritage. ive Page MARCUS GARVEY WAS RIGHT, ‘2 my ’ SAYS NEGRO PAPER, LAUDING VISION-OF FAMOUS LEADER ie . d aD ~~ ‘_ Chicago World Bluntly Blurts Out Some Truths Which Many Realize, but Are Either Too Ashamed or Too il Jealpus to Avow—-Recalls Efforts of Weak- 4 * m Minded Negroes to Hinder | NATIONHOOD ONLY CURE FOR THE NEGRO’S 1s Says Imprisoned Leader Has Rendered a Noble Service to His Racte-rLashes the Conceited DuBois, Who ' Failed-in-His Attempt Even to Follow in —-, Marcus Garvey’s-Footsteps - 7 | As time gues Un, truth will get a hearing; virtue will reap its own reward.- Marcus Garvey, «ars ahbad of contemporary Negro leads ers, stirred the Negru race to its depths, gave it a national pro- “gramme, an ideal and an incentive to life®and Inving.

Ine. 62 W tAth Btrest New York Grty Some Interesting Facts of Chinese Contact with the West Gleaned From White Men's Reference Books The earliest known Christian mission to China were those of the Nestorians (a Greek sect) and the Roman Catholics, which took place about 1330. They were allowed to teach their faith by the then rulers, but when the Ming dynasty came to power in 1330 they were driven out. Followed about five centuries, during which the Chinese chose their own roads to spiritual satisfaction. In 1525, however another entry was made by the French Jesuits and the Orthodox Eastern Church These made progress unmolested by the Chinese rulers until 1685, when they started fighting among themselves. In 1724 the Emperor, tired of their factual squabbles, banished both sets. These after China managed to get along without the "saving grace" of Christianity until 1807, when Robt. Morrison, of London, Eng. made the next attempt, but was promptly refused entry by the Chinese. Not being allowed to save Chinese souls he turned to the task of garnering sterling for the East India Co. under whose aegis he got by and was joined in 1813 by Wm Milne. Next came the Americans in 1820, and, after the opening of the great ports, the old edicts were withdrawn and everybody came in. After the war of 1836 official sanction was forced, but the Chinese authorities continued to regard Christian missions as the more runners, of Imperialism, and native Christians were looked down upon as "followers of the foreign devils." This popular feeling continued to increase until, spurred by other causes, it came to a head and there was a general massacre of Christians at Hankow and Tientsin in 1836. From 1870 on things see-sawed back and forth with much ill feeling under the surface until in 1900 they again blazed forth into the famous (or infamous) Baxter upspring, when 135 (white) missionaries, to children, and some 16,000 native Christians were killed out of hand. The subsequent punitive expeditions of the powers settled things definitely until now. What the future of Christianity in China is to be is now "in the lap of the kods." Railways Much of the bad blood between China and the Western Powers has been the outcome of the white man's determination to foist railways upon China for the furtherance of his own imperialistic designs. The first railway built in China (from Woosung to Shanghai) was constructed by the British and opened in 1815. This was done (a significant fact) without the consent of the Chinese authorities. There was disapproval but no active opposition was offered. This disapproval, however, crystallized into flaming anger when a few months after the opening of the railway, a Chinaman was run over and killed. To prevent unpleasant developments the operating company, at the instance of the British minister, ceased operation and entered into negotiations with the Chinese government for the sale of the line The terms of the sale wave that the line should be paid for in installments over a period of twelve months, during which time the line was to be operated by the vendors in the interest of the buyers. The idea was that when the Chinese found out that there were large gains in railway operation they would support its extension. But the oriental mind has always been an unsolved riddle to Europeans. As soon as the final payment was made and the line turned over to the Chinese the new owners promptly destroyed the rolling stock, ripped up the rails and sleepers and shipped everything off to the island of Formosa, where it was dumped into the mud and forgotten. On the site of the spacious Shanghai station, also promptly demolished, a temple was erected to the "Queen of Heaven" to explicate the desecration of the soil by foreign devilry Not until after the Boxer war, of 1900 did foreign railways make any appreciable headway, though prior to this, the Chinese, taking a leaf out of Japan's book, had various short lines constructed, some with money raised by jolts in European capitals. Since then, of course, the right of the whites to exploit China economically has not been seriously questioned until now. Protests there have been aplenty, but no display of force, which in the only FREE TO ASTHMA SUFFERERS Free Trial of a Method That Anyone Can Use Without Discomfort or Loss of Time We, have a method for the control of Asthma, and we won't want to try it at our expense.

Extra-territoriality Contary to popular belief extra- territoriality, or the right of foreigners in China to try their nationals in their own consular court, is not a recent arrangement. The first nation to secure this right was Russia in 1680. The same rights were extended in 1843 to Great Britain and the United States, and in 1844 to France. The reader must understand here that, unlike Japan, China never wanted to treat with the Westerners. They had always considered themselves as infinitely superior by reason of culture, length of history and "savoir de vivre" to the white western upstarts who were campbals at a time when the Chinese already had thousands of years of history behind them. You may imagine that the whites did not share their flattering opinions. In 1871, as the outgrowth of international complications too long to detail here, Russia seized the Chinese province of Ill. This was the beginning of a series of imperialistic prods upon Chinese integrity. In Dec. 1867, the British seized Canton. The French and British the former on the protest that a French priest had been murdered forced war upon China, at the conclusion of which China signed away their present "treaty rights" to the powers in 1860 and paid an indemnity of 8,000,000 taels (a tael then was worth about three shillings and threepence British, or about 736 American). In 1882 there was another war with France when that nation seized Annam, which was a yassal state of the Chinese Empire. Next we come to some of the more salient features of the Boxer Uprising The term "Boxer" means "list of righteous harmony." The events leading up to the outbreak have already been treated of under the previous headings. We will therefore restrict ourselves to the main events following the outbreak. On June 10, 1900, the British Admiral Sir E. Seymour led out of Tientsin a mixed force of 2,000 British, Russian, French, German, Italian, Austrian, American and Japanese to attack Pekin. They were met and repulsed by the Chinese, suffering a total loss of 62 killed and 218 wounded between the time of advance and the retreat to Tientsin. They returned, "however, with a reinforcement of British Sikhs (East Indians) and took Pekin on Aug. 13 of the same year. After burning and looting to their heart's content they subsequently, after being further reinforced by a large force of German military, forced upon China further unequal "treaties," which still exist and which provided for joint foreign control of Chinese customs. It is especially significant that the Japanese were unwilling to take part in the punitive expedition and were only prevailed upon to do so under pressure of the United States and Britain, and that immediately after the "relief" of Pekin they voluntarily withdrew their forces. Paganism Revival Seen by Pastor Assorting that we are living in a machine age, measured in horsepower and dollars, the Rev William Thomson Hanszche, pastor of the Prospect Street Presbyterian Church, declared recently that "a revival of paganism has been brought about by man's ingenuity in the past 75 years." He spoke to boys and boys' leaders at a mass meeting, the Central Y M C. A, which brought to a close the Eighth Annual Young People's Conference. The meeting was one of two held under Young People's Sunday School Council auspices. "The current machine age has revived the love of power and pleasure which are the fundamental principles of Paganism" declared the Rev Hanzaphe, in "Meeting the Challenge of 1927." He pointed out that in order to overcome the wickedness of the machine power it is important to discover that which lies beyond, since it is first necessary to find that which constitutes the challenge before one can meet it. Mrs Dunham declared that in order to become a leader today, one must follow the teachings of Chulat —Trenton Times.

Where can I find love that never changes Smiles that are true and always just the same. Caring not how the fierce tempest rages. Willing ever to shield my honored name? This I find at home, only with Mother. Who cares for me with patient tenderness, She from every human pain would rather Save me, and drink the dregs of bitterness. If on life's way I happen to flounder, My true thoughts should be of Mother dear. She is the rock that never rifts asunder. The cry of her child, be it far or near. This is love wonderful, beyond compare. It is God's choosest gift to mortal man. You, who know Mother, in this thought must share.

Toote Thanks Membership For Past Co-operation (Continued from page 2) prison and does not come out of there as a reinspired being. I say his sense of inspiration is dead. No man who goes there and speaks with the Hon. Marcus Garvey, listening to his philosophy, to his practical way in demonstrating the African's programme, cannot but be convinced that the realization of Garveyism is the only solution for this problem. Redeification Necessary "And as I spoke to him on last Monday morning, listened to him philosophizing as he generally does because when you speak to Marcus Garvey in Atlanta prison he speaks not of himself and his predicament but of the conditions affecting Negroes—I am bound to tell you his words and let you realize the seriousness of the age in which you are living and to urge you to rededicate your lives to this cause, because as Garvey says in his own way the Negroes of America are living in surroundings made for them by the other man, and the Negro of America is just as strong in his weakness as the white man is strong in his strength, and if the Negroes do not use a method and a philosophy peculiarly the Negroes own, within the next hundred years the Negroes of America will be like the American Indian of today. And as he spoke to me on last Monday I became convinced beyond reasonable doubt that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is the only solution for the Negro peoples of the world. These are the things that Marcus Garvey has prophesied and as we reread his articles of seven years, age and his speeches, we cannot but believe that Marcus Garvey is a prophet by God Almighty to lead the Negroes of the world." Distressing Economic Conditions The speaker then proceeded to speak in the distressing conditions that ex- tended among Negroes in several of the towns he had visited in the South where white labor was taking the place of black in the menial trades which of few years ago were entirely in the hands of Negroes - The one and only hope, the people now thoroughly real- ized, lay in Garveyism, and the op- ression which they were being forced to undergo in the South was doubtless hastening the day of their deliverance and complete emancipation via the route of nationhood in Africa charted by the Universal Negro Improvement Association HON.

'It is needless for me to say, that this year was one fraught with difficulty, and we owe our present existence to God and the loyal and devoted members of our race who, while the battle was the last, stood with us until today, when we can see the silver ding of success. Our organization has achieved much in the past 12 months, especially in its educational program Liberty University will stand as an undying monument to Negro Culture and for those in the quest for Negro Nationalism. On behalf of His Excellency, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and members of the High Executive Council, I desire冠冠 to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to our members and well wishes who have made it possible for our organization to succeed through the past year. We have had tremendous odds to face, influences of the most discouraging and vicious character to subdue. Newspapers containing malignant and poisonous articles have been circulated in newspapers and in your business places by intriguing political schemers, demagogues and time-servers, whose corrupt deeds are but a faint reflex of their corrupt hearts. They had hoped by magnifying the reverses of our organization, misrepresenting the conduct and slandering the character of our beloved leader and his brave and devoted consort to produce demoralization in our ranks, thereby to reap their personal reward. But they reckoned without you, the faithful hosts, with hearts large and true that cannot be swayed. Soldiers in the Cause "It is for me to remind you fellow members of the race that we are soldiers in the cause of Africa for the Africans, for the preservation of Negro integrity, and to uphold and maintain the constitution and laws under the several governments wherever we are domiciled. Upon your faithfulness and devotion to the principles of One God' One Alm' One Destiny' depends the ultimate success of our cause. To us has been committed the sacred heritage of posterity and we must acquit ourselves as men worthy of the confidence reposed in us and hand on to those who shall follow us a united Negro race. To our hands have been committed the liberties prosperity and happiness of future generations. Shall we betray that trust? Shall the success that we have attained and the sacrifices that Martin Curry has made be dimmed, and tarnished and rendered in vain by discord and dissension while the enemies of Negro nationalism are concentrating the forces of evil. Let us stand firm at our posts of duty in this coming year, yielding nothing but death until the goal is accomplished.

Marvin Gorsky, but up to this time he has not done so. We how appeal to him on this our anniversary to release our leader to us. The Negro race will consider this gotten the greatest honor since Abraham Lincoln signify the Emancipation Proclamation. We appeal to the Republican Administration of our great and prosperous democracy who is now controlling the destiny of the nation and to which the Negro has always reposed his confidence. Members and friends, I feel confident of the ultimate success of African Nationalism. I believe that the Father of mankind in his great mercy and goodness will give courage and strength to the arms of the African Patriot, and give hine foreseen and wisdom to throw off the yoke of oppression and emerge from the thick darkness that now encircles him. Yes, Africa, shall be free and though now disunited, shall become one and indistinct. In certain parts of Africa these have refused to allow navies to passages and armies of weapons that they might keep the wild beasts away from their fields and farms. None of the armed and existing precautions will save Africans from the wattle to come and from a judgment which is destined to fall upon them, for whoever unethical the sword shall in turn poke by the sword. Over six hundred thousand native Africans fought in the trenches with the Allies and an equal number were under arms in various portions of Asia and Africa under governments which have protections in these continents and it cannot be but that Africa will arise and employ her might to be half of herself.

SAVE LIBERTY HALL TO THE ASSOCIATION LIBERTY HALL, in New York city, is the cradle of liberty for the vast membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which is represented in all parts of the earth. To the thousands of members in New York it is more, if possible, than it is to the members in other places, because it is the child of the parent body in New York city and the gathering point of the members of the New York local. And in Liberty Hall the International Congresses of the Association have been held, as the first was. The eyes of the membership in all of the earth look to Liberty Hall as a light set upon a high hill. They cannot enyase a condition in which they would not have Liberty Hall, in New York city, to look to for light and leading, for the inspiration and the hope that make for success. In it the great men and women of the association have elaborated the policies and heralded the programs of the association, and it is the desire of the membership that, come what may, they will continue to do so. But Liberty Hall is in danger. Those who know its commercial value are seeking to take advantage of the ugly situation created by rebellious members of the association by securing the valuable site for development purpose. In the last issue of The Negro World, Acting President-General Fred A. Toote devoted a whole page to a statement of the danger we stand in of losing Liberty Hall by the foreclosure of mortgages not created in the regular way but for which we are held responsible. His statement of the condition that confronts the membership in holding out Liberty Hall is couched in very plain and simple phrases so that he who runs may read and understand. If you have not read his statement read it. He asks that each and every member of the association come to the relief of the parent body in saving Liberty Hall by contributing $5 We spell it out, so that it may be the better understood—FIVE DOLLARS! That is not a great deal of money, and it should be easy to raise all that is required in the pressing emergency, and we are sure that it will be. Become a Liberty Crusader, and help save Liberty Hall to the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It is a duty which should be a pleasure. Do not put off becoming Liberty Crusader to another day, become one at once. We have ninety days in which to save Liberty Hall. We are sure that the members of the association will make the most of the time allowed and that each will put his shoulder to the work mapped out by Acting President General, Toote RUSSIAN COMMUNISM RATTLING THE WHITE DRY.BONES It is a remarkable thing that Russia, one of the most backward of the nations, should have shaken off the tyranny of the Romanoff dynasty, a dynasty which throttled the freedom of its own people and exploited to the limit its vast peasant and proletarian masses, steeped in ignorance and poverty, but should have swung to the other extreme of autocratic tyranny and taken on democratic license in its most offensive forms. Not only has it done this with regard to its own people, but it has undertaken to impose that sort of democratic communism on the other peoples of the world. The Russian Soviet is more radical than Mussolini's fascism. They both threaten the established social and civil and economic principles on which modern civilization is predicated, and together they have the other nations in a cold sweat of fear and expectation. Even in America, where democracy is supposed to be immovably entrenched, Russian Sovietism is regarded with misgivings by those in authority. Russian communism is said to be at the bottom of the troubles in China, which has constrained the European and Americans in China to go slow and with moderation in their determination to protect the lives and properties of their people in China, because an uphement might start a civilization which would extend from the Far East, with Japan as the unknown quantity to the near East, with Russia as the unknown quantity, with the vast restless populations within the two extremes to reckon with. And it is said that Russian communism is at the bottom of the restless and determined resistance of the African Negroes of South Africa to the Hertzog program to futch upon them a form of slavery. Sir Ernest Howard, the British ambassador to the United States, speaking recently at Worcester, declared that Russia is inspiring the Chinese attacks, on foreigners and hopes to drive the British out of Asia in its first step in promoting a world Bolshevik revolution." Continuing, Sir Ernest said, "Who can doubt that Moscow today dreams of being, if not exactly the center of all governments of Asia, at least a out of communist spiritual center which will dictate policy to North countries and then to Europe and finally perhaps to America." "The Negro World does not believe in communist theories, but it is bound to acknowledge the democratic principle of brotherhood which dominates the Moscow movement. It does not draw the race and color line, and that is a very vital matter with the darker races who are being ground and to power in all their values by the Caucasus." THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 9, 1927 MR. CARTER DECLINES THE LIBERIAN MISSION W E are all interested in the fact that Mr James Garneth Carter of Georgia who was appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate informs the adjustment and confirmed by the Senate before its adjournment recently, to be minister resident and consul general to the Republic of Liberia, has defined that position, and has been transferred to the consulate at Calais, France. Mr Carter has been in the consular service, mostly in Madagascar, off the coast of Africa, for twenty years, and it was given as a reason for his declining the Liberian mission that he did not care longer to reside in a tropical country. It was also found that his acceptance of the mission would affect his high rating in the consular service, and would not be a promotion, while the transfer to the Calais consulate would be. The Liberian mission is not a very desirable post. The salary is small, when the demands on a minister's purse are considered, the post is isolated one, with little social attractions and the climate has proven to be very deadly to American minister in the past. But there have always been plenty of applicants for the position, and there will be plenty who desire to accept what Mr Carter has east aside. It is an interesting fact that these are now living four former minister, resident and consul-general to Liberia, as follows: Rev. C. J. Smith of North Carolina, Rev. Ernest Lyon of Maryland, Mr. W. H. Johnson of Ohio, and Rev. Evangleton P. Hood of New Jersey. And the United States has never sent a white man as minister to Liberia. WHAT THE WHITE MAN IS FIGHTING FOR IN YELLOW CHINA HERE are 400,000,000 Chinamen in China and 40,000 white Europeans and Americans. For 400 years the white races have been securing territorial and trade advantages in China and have developed so many advantages as to impure their position in the country a menace to the free conduct of affairs which the whites not only claim but insist upon in their own country, some of them going so far as to bar out the Asiatics entirely in their immigration restrictions, while all of them subscribed to the principle of Asiatic racial inferiority in rejecting the plea of Japan, for racial equality in settling the World War conditions at Versailles. The Japanese have been stigmatized by the white nations as an inferior people, in the same way as other Asiatics and African Negroes have been stigmatized, and this in face of the fact that Japan is a member of the League of Nations, as also are Haiti, Liberia, and Abyssinia. The Japanese feel keenly the stigma, but are biding their time to even matters. The Japanese are never in a hurry. They believe in the principle that haste makes waste. Their deliberate way of preparing to and doing things would indicate as much. It is estimated that there are some 15,000 European and American troops and marines in China, which are regarded as sufficient to hold in check and to a minimum of damage the 400,000,000 Chunanren, the latter being divided into two factions warring for supremacy, with the Cantonese Southern faction in the ascendancy. They are all united on the proposition that "the foreign devils must go." The Philadelphia Public Ledger, which has a broad outlook on international affairs, in a thoughtful editorial article on "Whether Shang-hai Stands or Falls," says: "More and more these forces of the white man and the brown man from Nippon take on the look and manner of units about to fight a rear-guard action. Their backs are to that wall of water, the Pacific. They are, in fact, covering the retreat of the white man from China. He is leaving behind him railways that are becoming mere streaks of rust, chimneys in which the swallows of Asia will build and schools, hospitals and missions which no foreigner may ever again control. He is abandoning most of the fruits of his work for the last four centuries. Trader and missionary, engineer and concession holder, whatever he may be, he realizes the time has come to go, and he knows not when, if ever, he will return." It is estimated that there are some 1,500 American marines in China, with more en route on the high seas, with the nearby supply of soldiers in the Philippines, and that there are some 3,000 Americans doing business of one sort and another—kerosene, petroleum and automobiles heading the export list of commodities—the volume of business having reached the export total of some $110,000,000 annually, and there is, besides a large volume of mission, college and medical values involved. It is these values which American marines and soldiers, alongside those of the European nations, stand shoulder to shoulder to safeguard. It is a tremendous conflict, the clash of western and eastern ideals and material interests, the outcome of which may mark the opening of a new chapter in the history of the world EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS Whether king or slave every man gives to the world only as much as he will and works.

An old piece of philosophy has been flashed down from the days of slavery which goes. What you do sounds so loud that you can't hear what you say. Portland Advocate Unused Privileges More and more it becomes apparent that the Negro disregards the political privileges recorded him on the presumption that bias using them will have no effect. The lesson is one plan that he who runs can read. The Negro business and craftsmanship struggling for a foothold is wise to follow this lesson. The things are necessary to a business something to sell and somebody to buy. It is up in the business to read and to provide the article in service to be sold. Kansas city Call Debtors from long experience and experience he has acquired the habit of taking himself a political epiphany but his spirit depends on which side of the fence he chooses him. And often often he arrives to be counted for the value of a epiphany where he plays blues. Much of the response differs for his designation relation to the plural op- pose shoulders. He appears to want nothing to demand nothing and get nothing as a result. We also like to use the understates. Confused the would not understand. It is not how much we make, but how much we save, not how much we speak, but how much we love, not how much we save, but how much of ourselves we care, that affects us. In all our history there has never been an organnization of the significance of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Much of the influence for good that the churches might have wielded was dissipated because of denominational differences. The fraternal groups are guilty of a similar blunder by their failure to consolidate on one universal board. Christianity teaches the brotherhood of man and the spiritual kindship of the creator. Our varied interpretations of the teaching should not cause universal division or religious rivalry. The fundamental basis of all fraternal societies is benevolence or brotherly interest. Why have we imaginated so many similar societies and orders to confuse the minds of the people andaken the possibility of unjustly man? Man has been too egoistic and vain—no have acted in the interest of the individual, or class, rather than in the interest of the whole. Division of alm or purpose has always weakened the whole. It is unity and oneness of purpose that has always accomplished the greatest good. Have we not been told: "That a house divided against itself cannot stand." In unity there is strength. Then why have we continued to permit selfish and reactionary persons to coexist and perverse our good? We have not stopped to consider or analyze the hurp being done. Today adjustment and reconstruction are in order. The Univ. sial Negro Improvement Association has set the standard, and by the very nature of its construction should command the attention and co-operation of the entire Negro group. Before the introduction of the U N I A, we had no alternative, save following or accepting our individual leaders. Since the arrival of the U N I A, we are cheating ourselves when we neglect or refrain to identify ourselves with its incomparable program and ideals. Therefore, the benefit of unilateral organization is of paramount importance to us at this time. The prestige acquired by the Universal Negro Improvement Association is of such as to claim the support of every member of our struggling race. No, other organized body of Negroes has ever commanded the attention and consideration of statesmen, students, press or nations as has the organization created and founded by that Negro champion Hom. Marcus Garvey. Some Negroes are so foolish as to think that to remain outside the ranks of the U. N. I. A. denotes intelligence—when just the opposite is true. The propaganda of jeaouxy and racial prejudice has caused unsuspecting Negroes to form hasty and groundless conclusions. This suicidal blunder has weakened and prevented the organization from accomplishing much good for the race as a whole, unnecessarily contributing to our own destruction. A sad and tragic indictment. Let us reify this racial error. The U. N. I. A. has come to save, not to destroy. Give truth a hearing and an audience, that you may obtain the correct perspective, and cease making of the race's greatest movement a mockery and a sham. Such an attitude is conductive to the condemnation, and ridicule of intelligent reasoning. To be a member and supporter of the U. N. I. A. is an honor and a credit to your superior judgment. To remain apart from this mighty organization slams you an blind, prejudiced and stupid. Protection is something devotion sought to all mankind. The Universal Negro Improvement Association offers this essential to human happiness in a greater degree than any other organization in existence. Self-protection is the most reliable of all protection—the U.N.I.A reaches this brand of protection. Through all the solidarity of our membership and the establishment of an authorized central body we are in the position to advise, warn and direct our people from possible danger and disaster "Foreseen is two armed." The U.N.I.A advocates foresight rather than hindsight. The work of our organizations of a preparatory picture and defensive mental instruction. Other organizations that oppose our program operate in the manner of a "wrecking crew" after the harm and injury have been done. Good physician's gestures curry for your alimentary physiologists continue to substitute remedies. The program of the U.N.I.A guarantees a cure for all our alimentary and malady. They why continue to support these "quack" hisortical organizations that merely around waiting for something to QC U.R. in order that they might maintain our alms and支援 them. The longer you have deceived as to the importance and significance of the greatest of all Negro protective organizations. We have been handcapped by your susperness you have been robbed of an ideal and hope. Now it is time to assert your independence and intelligence. The U.N.I.A is an organization of the people, for the people, and by the people, not an organization of certain people, for certain people and by certain people. We have and the rest, now let us prove our faith in connecting with this great interpersonal body that has, a Negro leadership a Negro constituency and a Negro program. Paying the Price Lilberty Hall must be saved. This priceless treasure of an inglorious age, this hailowed moment of independence, must forcibly remain the property of those who suffer that it might live. Liberty Hall is a door to us as Westminster Abbey is to Englishmen. It is as sacred to us as the Vatican is to Catholics. Let us remember at this time the words of Emerson. The institute is no greater than the instituer. The greatness of Marcus Garvoy gave birth to Garvoyism and the function of Garvoyism made Liberty Hall necessary. In our struggle to retain it let us bear in mind that the plot of ground, the building thereon, are but myths beside the epilogical influence, the superb intelligence which radiate therefrom to the four corners of the world. Liberty Hall is not merely a meeting place for Negroes, it is a world-wide institution the soul of which makes its abode in the charm of Africa for the Africans. Marcus Garvoy, first hailed it with his uncompromising gospel of African autonomy, later sanctioned it with his blood when an assassin attempted to abduct him of life. Robert Lincoln Boston dramatized it in death, Isaiah Lemanguel Morter crowned it as the shrine of an oppressed race. John E. Bruce was so impressed with it as a sanctuary that he eased only he could. God of the right on battles fight. Liberty Hall! What happy memories are wrapped up in this declaration' The Black Star Line, The Negro World League of Nations, Delegations, International Conventions, Court Receptions, the Black Cross Navigation & Trading Co., Liberian Delegations, the Negro Bill of Rights—the history, tradition, inspiration—the birth of a new race—to dawn of a new day—Marcus Garvey. Let's go to it Garveyism. Let's throw selfishness, indifference and petty jealousies to the wind. Let's beat back the enemies of Negro progress. Don't delay Send in your contribution now to the parent body. Let's show to the world that Garveyism know no defile. The parent body faces a crisis. In the next 90 days it must go up or go down. The enemies continue to press us hard. Money and money alone will stain the fortune. The parent body special gives you a splendid opportunity to shoulder your part of the burden. One thousand Garveyites are needed to protect the front lines of Garveyism, not with guns, but with greenbacks. In ninety days there must come pouring into the office of the parent body every Monday morning $1,000, each dollar representing a Garveyite in one of the forty-eight States who has pledged that the work of African redemption must succeed. The parent body special is an open affair in which all can compete. One dollar per week for 50 weeks. If you think this is too much to prosecute this program for nationhood is not decreasing. Every year finds it growing in intensity. Whose last year it took $100,000 to prosecute this program, this year we need $200,000, by 1930 our annual budget will pass the $1,000,000 mark. There is no exaggeration here. Don't be appalled. When you full comprehend the seriousness of the program these figures will not seem so large. Join the parent body special now. The divisions in the Middle West are rallying splendidly to the call and we feel confident that as goes the Middle West so goes the whole country. Some of you have been giving the Jew $1 per week for 250 weeks, and the end is not yet. About one-third of this he contributed towards a Jewish homeland in Palestine. If you would repeat this same service for the Universal Negro Improvement Association you would be helping to build a nation of your own the same time the Jew is struggling to build one of his own. Don't hesitate. See your secretary right away and tell him to put your mume down as a member of the parent body special. Fight! Fight! Fight! It is to be hoped that every Garveyite read and digested that splendid editorial which appeared in "the Negro World, March 26, under the caption: "What India Needs is What Africa-Needs—the Spirit to Fight." For 300 years Negroes have been evading this fighting idea. We have even gone so far as to ask God in all solemnity to fight our牢牢 battles. The Negro out of respect for one of the ten commandments does not cherish the necessity of fighting to survive lest in fighting he kills somebody yet, he has no objection to God doing what killing there is to be done. This attitude has helped to woken rather than strengthen the race. All the world loves and respects a fighter, but no one holds a reward. The greatest profession among Europeans and white Americans is that of a fighter. They never feel to proud or important as when dolled up in the uniform representative of national defense. It is beat that the Negro realize now that he can't get to heaven without fighting, nor can he live without fighting. Fighting, whether with our brain, our hands or our hearts is an important part of our everyday life from which there is no escape. Since there can be no success without fighting the Negro must fall in line. As Theodore Garrison puts it. STATEMENT OF THE OWNERSHIP MANAGEMENT, CIRculation, KPI.

Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are reminded that the One Dollar Yearly Assessment Tax became due January 1, 1927. No member is in financial standing unless this tax has been paid. 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- THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 9, 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 my 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? Now is the time for each and every member and well-wisher of this greatest of Negro t Association are reminded that the One De tax has been paid. PAY SAME NOW to rs. addressed to the Secretary-General, 142 movements to come to the rescue of LIBERTY HALL-the sacred shrine of Negro Liberty. 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. Forward your donation to the "Secretary, Liberty Crusaders Campaign, 142 West 130th Street, New York City." Also fill in the donation blank and become a member of the Crusaders. FRED. A. TOOTE.

GILGERT WASHINGTON, MON., 14th SATURDAY, saluting the sun is one of the longest jobs that the United States Government has to give out. To help a complete record of the sun one must go to a place where it actually never tains and wages there are few or no clouds, and get up as high as possible in that desolate region. Naturally, one does not have many neighbors in a land of tops, for nothing grows there. The latest place to be piled out for solar observations is Mount Looksa, in a desert in Southwest Africa. The southwestern institution, sending out two physicists, William H. Hooke and Robert G. Gould, got away from the desert mountain. They are used to that kind of system. Mr. Hooke has just finished two years at the Yerkes Government solar observatory at Montevideo, once used by two and a half years. He held in the Arizona region. The two ships are to take care and sake of one of them in food and a dog will make up the other company on the desert moon on top. A thoudding feet below, in the water of an inflict volcano, is a water supply. Seven miles away is a settlement consisting of a tower company and two or three hundred hottertents. The missionary is the only other white in the neighborhood, but sixty-two miles away, across the desert, is the settlement of Keepon sheep, with 900 whites. When one really hungers for company, sixty-two miles across the desert is not so small.

IN YOU FOR No Immigrant Comes This Year from 16 Small Countries, but Quotas of Large Nations Are Nearly Filled WASHINGTON D.C. AIM migration quotas for the contested national stage of most of the countries from which the United States gets its new citizens a federal examination there are several countries, it wears from which we have had no immigrants and it is not likely, they will come in though the states are swung wide for them. Effort has been made to prioritize the imigrant movement on a monthly basis, though there is always a rush from the countries where many are waiting to get into the country while quotas for the end of the quarter are The quota from Greece is already full, and no others can come in before July 1. Several other quotas are almost full and many, particularly those from Germany, the Irish Free State, Great Britain and northern Ireland and the Standingman countries will be apparently full. In contrast to this there has not been a single immigrant from the Island of Java up through 100 of the islanders are entitled to enter the United States during the year. And if likewise entitled to enter and there have been immigrants "Milibutan French Cameroon, Ethiopia, Museat, Nairoi, Nepal New Guinea, Rwanda and Tanzania, southwest Africa, British Tonga and French Tonga and are under the selective immigration act each entitled to 100. Not a single immigrant from any of them has entered during the year to date. And only one has come in from Stait, which is likewise entitled to 100. Nobody Comes From Afghanistan In so far as the African provinces and countries are congranded the quota is based largely on the results of the old slave trade. Apparently these subjects have no thought of voluntarily coming to the United States and exchanging the difficulties of a highly organized industrial life for the freedom of native jungles. Afghanistan sent no citizens. The quota from Algeria is little more than half full. Algeria peninsula has sent only 29 out of a possible 100 Armenia Australia and Bastonia, Ireland India and Iziz have quotas about half full Only one immigrant came back from the Republic of Liberia, founded to give freedom and their own government to American Negroes. Quotas from most of Europe are ahead of the months average, and many will be closed before the end of the year. Czechoslovakia has a quota of 3,073 and 2,319 have already come in. Denmark backs a quota of 2,761 and 1,498 have come in. Germany Sends Greatest Number Germany, from which the United States gets the bulk of its immigration under the new law, has a quota of 51,227, and up to March 1 40,529 immigrants had been admitted. The Irish Free State with a quota of 28,557 has sent in 28,556 prospective citizens. Great Britain and Northern Ireland fielded Household, sent in only 2,199 out of a possible 34,007. The quotas from Poland and Norway are nearly full. Turkey has a quota of only 100, and 92 Turks have come in. Officials believe that all quotas except those from African and Oriental provinces will be full before the year ends and those awaiting entry will have to await the new quota year. Italy's Army Drives Tribesmen in Africa ROME, March 29.—Italian military forces have occupied further territory in Cyrenaica, North Africa, for the purpose. It was officially announced today, of definitely assuring land communications between Benghazi and Agalania. The announcement says that the Cyrenaican Government decided to advance the Italian occupation on a line from Agedabia to Sanono to Mios and adds, "This operation developed rapidly and the new line was occupied on March 18. Small groups of Senegal and rebels avoided combat with the Italian forces by fleeing toward the south. An automobile mebiline gun squadron alone, not with slight resistance near Sanono, opened fire against the fleeing tribesmen. They replied with their rifles."

A JAMAICA NEWSPAPER WOULD SOLVE PROBLEM OF COLOR BY SILENCE A JAMAICA NEWSPAPER WOULD SOLVE PROBLEM OF COLOR BY SILENCE Editor Thinks-Aims of His Paper Too "Lofty" to Permit Discussion of World's Greatest Problem To the Editor of the Negro World Sir-Appended in a letter I sent to the Jamaica Mail for publication some time ago. I would like you to print same in the Negro World, that the time may see that while a few may be worth defending in Jamaica, a Negro is not The reply of the editor is attached also but can any reputable journal be justified in suppressing the truth in favor of those who create the objectionable color question and lay claim to lofty aims? ARNOLD J. LECESNE Kingston, Jamaica, B W I. March 22, 1837 Whenever a large, group of whites comes in contact with a large group of coloured, a difficulty presents itself. For convenience, we call it a race problem. That which creates the problem is the assumption of the white man to lord it over all other men and the indisposition of all other men to regain their lordship.—Star of Zeus. To the Editor of the Jamaica Mail Dear Sir, I read your editorial of today under caption "An Uncalled for Insult", and I agree with you that there was a gratuitous insult given to the Jamaica Jockeys Club when its action was described as "Jewish", and paradox all it was seen to you because I do agree with you in this matter. I have to deflect with you in your criticism of those who fearlessly alude to the content of class and color prejudice here. Why not confuse and amphish those who also give insults to others less fortunate in the possession of worldly goods and darker in color of skin than themselves? Why don't you? It can't be right to insult Negroes and wrong to insult Jews. Is it expedient always to suppress the truth to be eternal silence? You is primal this scribe and paper who offend the Jews. I am "going for" those who offend Negroes. The Jewish element here will feel insulted and rightly present it. Negroes can feel insults, too, and they should not be discouraged in their regestment of them. Butked, I would rather help them to Despicable those Negro exemplars of "culture and refinement" you quote, who seem to think our economic prosperity of much more importance than our personal freedom and political independence and who are positively insensible to the insults afflicted on this race. I will not cease to refer to the color question here and elsewhere until white men adhere to their claim of superiority, to black men and stop treating them as they do think them—their inferns. I am either right or wrong. Prove me wrong, if you can, and tell your readers, too, if you dare, who it is that is responsible for the regrettable incidence of the color question here and wherever white and black live. Who caused, for example, the necessity for the existence of that great organization, this Universal Negro Improvement Association, founded and directed to that great black Jamaican, Marcus Garvey. Who? Black, or white? Here is your opportunity to prove the impartiality the Mail boasts of—give us that fair play you say is the motive for the advent of your paper "It is purely a matter of color, so saith your white Englishman." Jamaica "Mail's" Reply Mr Arnold I. Leccone, Bug Walk We can with justification state that the aim of this journal are too lofty to permit of the inclusion in its columns of a communication every line of which relates to the objectionable color question - Editor Jamaica Mall Moslems Aroused By Polygamy Ban LONDON, March 28.—The bill restricting polygamy which is shortly to come before the Egyptian chamber, is encountering strong opposition among Moslems, says a Calro Naspatch to the Daily Mail. A special commission of the Vilsma think of Mohsen doctors of law who interpret the Koran has strongly obeyed to the restrictions, not only because they are contrary to Mohammedan law but because the commission obeyed them are socially and morally harmful. The commissioners say that God willled polygamy, which confers incalculable benefits. They point out that despite the existence of polygamy, there are a great number of unmarried women in Egypt and that if the restrictions are imposed their number is bound to increase. France N.

The United States apparently has not been able to take full advantage of the British, but Japan hated herself by China, nevertheless has slipped into the open markets. She at least is not in the taboo of the "whites." But here let a confidential report to the Institute of Pacific Relations tell something of the story. "For generations" it says, "there has been developing a technique of treatment of the Chinese by the white man that has been storing up a ground of wrath with which he has begun to reckon it is not a reasonable attitude. It is an atmosphere, then partly from the disparity of economic levels between the races. It is probably inevitable that a race which lives on a vastly higher economic level than another which serves it and serves it in ways that simply, inferiority, such as pulling rickshas and carrying seated chariars, will develop a superiority complex. I have repeatedly watched Angela Saxons in China show slowed Chinese out of the way when there was plenty of room to walk around them. Kicking your ricksha runner with the foot or bolking him with you, sick is the accepted way of guiding by many foreigners 'The sultany and cowardice of the Chinese coolie class has without question contributed to the attitude of the Westerner. A prominent Chinese told me that the educated Chinese have feared and hated the Westerner for a long time while the coolie has worshipped him as a superman. The horse a foreigner treated a coohe the more the coolies respected and grooved be- FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH Never Discovered but thousands of people testify that POTENTINE restores Pep, Ambition, lasting Vigor, Youthful Courage, strong Vim, Energy, gives new Life, surprising benefits to Mind and Body.

The coolie has found that, the white man is vulnerable and is beginning to despise him. This is a dang rosa situation, for the coolie is excitable and quickly around to nob violence. "The younger generation of Chinese deeply resent the attitude of social superiority affected by the foreigner. A Chinese bishk president in Hongkong recently said: "We have decided it is not necessary to do business with people who treat us with contempt. That attitude brought on the boycott which has cost Britain so much. We are willing to see whether this is a language the British can understand." "Two recent events account, in part for the loss of the prestige of the Chinese for the Westerner. First, the sending of cooie labor battalions to France during the war. Here the Chinese saw the white man at his worst and discovered that his feet were made of clay. Second, the entry of White Russian war refugees into North China in 1921. The plight of this remnant of imperialistic Russia is a tragedy of modern history. They have sunk to the level of the Chinese cooie and are competing with him as peddlers, street sweepers and cart drivers. Some of them live on the earnings of their women. Four thousand of them form a White bridehead in Chang Tso-Lin's northern army, and have been used as shock troops of his campaigns. I met some of these Russians in Tsingtau burracks dressed in Chinese clothes, a hopeless, wretched lot. They receive the same pay and treatment as the Chinese private, carping three cents (gold) a day. The Chinese roundly despise these poor fellows and call them white dogs and treat them accordingly!

Yours is a great to try. As you bore the rigors preparatory to native discourage you, but seek them lies our hope. NEGRO women are the acknowledged burden bearers of their race. Whether this is due to the innate laziness of Negro men, or to their lack of appreciation for their noble women, we are not quite sure. Perhaps both these reasons are contributing factors, yet the results are the same—an overburdened womanhood, and a backward race. We hope some of our male readers will in defense of their sex supply us with a plausible excuse, that is, if they can summon enough energy to do so. With Negro woman in this important, yet unenviable position, she should be careful in keeping pace with daily events and training her mind to cope with situations and problems. Her tasks become greater as the cycle of civilization shifts nearer to Africa, and nationalism and self-determination the rallying cry of the East. One of the great dangers that face us is that the majority of us cannot realize that ours is a young, virile race, while the white race is slowly decaying; therefore it is disastrous for us to imitate the old fellow who indulges in excesses, knowing that he will soon depart. This birth control suits them, not us; it is our duty to bear children, and care for those children, so that our race may have good men and women through whom it can achieve honor and power. Their night life and "good times" act like opiates on their jaded nerves and guilty consciences. Your recreation must be wholesome and clean, you are in the position of the young child who should be kept away from places of debaucheery; with the old man it is different—he has already made his mark. Let him indulge. Our men are our greatest concern. They lack faith in themselves. Therefore they must be driven to accomplish anything. Perhaps this state of mind has been caused by the oppression of slavery, which has dulled their initiative. The achievement of any Negro man can always be traced to the push and perseverance of a good woman. White men, on the other hand, idolize their women and for them they will dare anything in order to merit their look of admiration. They have braved the tropical jungles, slain black men, in order to get gold and diamonds with which to adorn their women; they have ventured forth into the Arctic regions so that she may have beautiful furs to keep her warm; they have exterminated the red Indians in North America, and built up a great republic, so that their women may live in comfort and luxury. They brought our fore-parents from Africa to work for them as slaves, so that their blue-eyed dames may disport themselves and not be burdened with the care of home and children. When, through force of circumstances, they had to emancipate us, they devised all sorts of machines and utilized electricity for domestic usage. They have invented automobiles, railroad trains and aeroplanes so that their dear ones may travel in comfort; for the upkeep of which they exploit the darker peoples and their lands, so as to get coal, rubber, oil and iron. They ill-treat Chinese so as to get silks in order to clothe the white bodies of their women. They oppress Indians in India and Malays in Ceylon, so that "me lady" can serve five o'clock tea in her silken boudour. They lyre and burn black men for daring to look at white women in short, they will go through hell itself so as to provide luxury for their women. Mr. Negro, who has no love for his woman, loses the incentive to achieve, and the race is that much poorer because of his slothfulness. Tell him to go out and get diamonds and adorn his woman; he will readily tell you that he isn't going to risk his life for her; yet his dependency on white people makes every minute of his life a risk. He is always out of a job because he is too lazy to go out and make a job for himself; he prefers to hang around the white man's factory-dears begging for a job, and oftimes gets what he deserves—a kick. He makes no effort to provide for his women, nor does he protect her. He will cheerfully sit down to his wife's table and enjoy the good things on it without contributing a nickel to it. When he does find a job he tells her that they must run the home on a fifty-fifty basis, nor does he care if through necessity her morals are fifty-fifty with his. Small matter, as long as he can get a free meal sometimes and not be bothered with the landlord every month. Such are the parasites that most Negro women have for husbands, and we appeal to them at this time to be brave and take hope for the future. Their suffering will not be in vain, although their duties are becoming greater. Nationhood calls for brains and ability; the children must be prepared to shoulder the burdens of the next generation with honor and ability; they must not be allowed to fall into the weaknesses of their fathers, but must be inspired to go out and face the world, and make their separate racial contribution to humanity. Yes, mothers! Yours is a great task, but methinks you will shoulder it bravely. As you bore the rigors of slavery so you bear the hardships preparatory to nationhood. Let not the apathy of your men discourage you, but seek inspiration from the youth of the race. In them lies our hope.

Australia - Frank Anstey, deputy leader of the Labor Party in the Australian federal parliament, who has just returned from New Guinea, formerly owned by Germany and now mandated to Australia, tells a ghastly story of female slavery in that country Said Anstey: "Woman slavery is the ghostly apocaly- tico we have right before us. We hear constant talk of the black race- being the sacred trust of civilization, but in official circles and administrative circles there is never a single mention of the native women who are the real slaves in the territory. "I have seen them climbing and plodding over mountains and, down valleys—their eyes dull, their faces strained and worn, their manner sullen, and their whole hearing one of suspicion—carrying burdens of up to 120 pounds on their weary tortured bodies. They never smile for there is nothing to induce mirth. They are regarded as nothing but machines to work. Many of them give birth to child."

No man who attempts to build his career on masculine attributor alone will aspire to the fullness of glory. No gongos who has scorned the tender spiritual relations of a woman has reached the zenith of glory. Time has revealed the value of woman in man's achievements. The past mistakes of nations, their failure, their degeneracy and their ultimate deterioration and decay are directly attributable to those nations either totally ignoring feminine collaboration or their gross misappreciation of woman's divine gifts. Gabrielle D'Annuzzo. Italy's Obsession Italy is still obscured with the fallacious doctrine that she must have colonies in Africa or the Near East an order to relieve overpopulation by sending out emigrants. Unless she can find some outlet elsewhere (as she has done to a limited extent through the Albanian treaty) the Noth African situation is certain to lead to trouble. All up all, the European outlook is about as gloomy at the moment as it could very well be. You could hardly ask a more ironic background for the discussions of disarmament which still proceed in an atmosphere of increasing futility, at Geneva. The New Republic. Ain't It the Truth? Men may come and men may go, but food goes on forever. Napoleon, who was an even greater psychologist than he was a strategist, declared that an army, like a skepman, "traveled upon its stomach" More wars have been fought for the control of wheat fields and more private fields staved off by the timely arrival of a square meal than for any other cause on earth, romantics to the contrary notwithstanding. But man is by nature a contentious creature. As soon as he is assured an adequate bulk of food he begins to squabble enthusiastically over the proper proportions of the various ingredients — Dr. W. Hutchinson. An Informal British-American Alliance It is natural that the British should be eager to help us embark upon the course of empire. 'Their great empire, stretched across the Seven Seas, is in process of disintegration. What is happening in China is the greatest blow which British prestige has suffered since the American Revolution. It shakes India; it imperils Hongkong, Singapore, Apache, Egypt, the Sudan and the Suez, Cyprus, Malta, Gibraltar—that entire chain of foreign fortresses over which the British imperial flags. If one colored people can throw the British out of its territory, cannot another? Perhaps, after all, there is nothing supernatural about the people of that little island off the West coast of Europe. But if the great young empire of the Western Hemisphere, rich America, the new marvel, the traditional friend of democracy and of impressed people, can be brought to like Britain and with Britain, a new prestige comes to the relief of the British Empire. No wonder, indeed, if the British are willing to send a warship to Nicegård to help bolster up the Coolidge-Kellogg policy of aiding British imperialism: no wonder if the British in China ask that we stand shoulder to shoulder with them in defense of white prestige. 'The Nation. The Agonies of War Once upon a time war was a tribal excursion for food or revenge in foul days it became a baronial plenile. In the days of monarchies, even down to the Boer War, fighting was the feasiously guarded privileges of the regular armies. You did I had to be content to get on with our jobs. Today we know that patriotism cannot be kept as the privileges of the few. We have forced the regular army to let every man of us have his share of the glory, his share of the decorations for valor, his share of the many delight of sticking a baynet through somebody, of crumbling his face in with the hurt. No man now can be presented from leaving his wife and children and going out and getting shell shocked, or matted for life, or getting a shell splinter in the stomach which flips him open just sufficiently to give him about six or seven hours in which to die by inches, in which to call on the Almight to put him out of his agony.—A. Hamilton Gibbs. **dren** by the **rondade** and **die** in the **muck** of the beaten tracks The enforced slavery of the female natives is causing the deterioration of the race, said Enstay, for the women could not produce healthy children under such conditions. In one village alone last year there were twice as many deaths as births. There was a suspicion that the government connived at this slavery of the woman. When a native girl reached the age of 12 she became a slave, and the burdens which she avowed to carry were graded in accordance with the increase in her strength. With a medicinal regard for the morality of the natives, the government prohibited certain wood navyings and dugges of the natives' habit to lie obscene. Yet the enqaging of the native women was allowed to continue unchecked. ROOM You would like to rom to a desirable tenant?

For information write to CIRCULATION DEPARTMENT TIENTSIN, China. — Using the premises formerly known as one of the gayest cabarots of the Far East, Mme. Sun Yat-son, widow of the father of the Chinese republic, had opened a new political school for women in Hankow in which she not only proposes to teach her sisters the principles of the Kuomintang party but to give them courses in Western revolutionary methods, sociology, economics, home sanitation and the exploitation of China under the regime of the "unqual treaties." Preparing Political Evangelists "During the first fortnight I was in Hankow," says Mme. Sun Yat-sen in an authorized statement, "delegation after delegation of women came to me asking how they could help the work of the Kigmintang and help their sisters in developing a new womanhood of China that should be cognizant of the new temper of the times, politically conscious and free. They were eager but unprepared, so decided to establish a school for them that they may be useful in the field of women's participation in the revolution. "For the first term host of our students will be young women from Huphe and neighboring provinces in the Yangtze. But the purpose is to have girls from every part of the country. We want to develop individuals who can be sent back to their home provinces as evangelists of the new political faith To Give Understanding of the, Revolution "We propose to give them political training, provide them with a clear understanding of the revolution and a knowledge of the general world situation and on this basis to develop them as practical revolutionary workers and prepare them for active participation in government and party laborers. The teachers will be persons who have had practical experience in their fields and can be looked upon as specialists. There will be nothing impressive about our equipment.

If contentment reigns therein there is an air of calm and peace about the house. But if the air inside be troubled with endless 'bickerlings, petty discontents and discord, then will the house leave with its guests an impression of trouble and unhappiness. Thoughts are living things, and if the inmates of a house are thinking bitter, unforgetting, harsh thoughts, the very air will be troubled and carry the discontent to all within distance. It is natural, of course, for ripples to appear in the calm waters, or perhaps we wouldn't appreciate the calm. But ripples soon disappear and leave no trace of their coming. Look at the faces of those about you—of the passivity on the street. They mirror their emotions, most of them—and they tell a tale. A tale of harmony, or of discontent—of contentment, or of a futile unhappiness. The chances are that those who find the world a good place to live in come from homes where peace is king. And what greater hospital could the mother-house-wife give her children than to send them forth from a contented home to fight the good fight with life. It is a good rule to have mealtime especially a time of peace. Not only will the digestive systems react gratefully, but the inner workings of the mind will appreciate the atmosphere of cheer and rest. Only pleasant things should be said at mealtimes only gracious remarks should be made. It is the one time when the entire family are assembled together, and the chances are that if meal times are peaceful times, the president will be established for all other times. If the mother makes the home a place of refuge from the bustle and rush and turnoff of every day life makes it a place where the spirit can recuperate, she has laid the greatest foundation for happy lives for her children and herself.

EGYPTIAN ULEMAS DEFEND POLYGAMY Claim it Assures Chastity of Both Sexes CAIRO—The government's attempt to abolish polygamy in Egypt is being sternly relaisted by the religious heads of the country. A commission of Ulemans, or religious teachers, which was appointed by the rector of the great Alahara University to study and draft laws on the subject has now reported adversity. It finds that abolition of polygamy is not only contrary to the precepts of Mohammadan law, but would prove harmful morally and socially. The commission cities passages from the Koran in support of its contention that polygamy is the will of God and confers inalable benefits, assuring the charity of man and woman and constituting a remedy against debauchery and corruption, which was brought about by monogamy. Criticizing the clause of the law which lays down that a man must give proof of his ability to maintain a second wife before special permission is given by a Cauld, the commission maintains that it is a matter for the man to decide whether he is in position or not to maintain a second wife. There is a poem in every heart That sets the soul to dreaming Of lovely things—of faith, and hope, And home and hearth fires gleaming.

Remson B. Oglyb, president of Trinity-College, Hartford, Conn., in comparing the philosophy of the Roman Stoics with the teachings of Jesus "Epictetus," he said, "a slave who dragged a lame leg through the streets of Imperial Rome in search of truth, wrote. "Seek not to have things happen as you choose them, but rather choose that they happen as they do, and you shall live prosperously." "Comprise this with Christ's saying, "Seek ye from the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. At first sight there seems to be a close relation between Christ philosophy and the Christian attitude toward things, but examination shows that the difference is absolute. It is a matter of emphasis. "Epiphytus would have us accommodate ourselves to things, but Christ tells us to fix our attention on ideas, and then things will take their proper place. "The idea of the round table has long outlasted the actual place of furniture around which King Arthur and his knights sat. Ideas are more real than things. "The Master, while singularly gentle to sitters of the flesh, poured forth bitter invective against those who failed to see the worth of the idea behind things. The essence of the Christian gospel is that persons and persons only are of absolute worth." - Philadelphia Public Ledger.

HAVE FURNISH APART KINGSTON, JAMAICA, B.W.I. The Kingston Division of the U N I A's rapidly retrieving its former position as one of the best in the organization, and its others and members are determined to achieve this aim soon very soon. All auxiliaries of the division are being reorganized and its many business ventures carefully examined for avenues of expansion. Conferences among the divisions and branches are being held regularly, now branches and divisions are being formed and encouraged throughout the island, and as the Ethiopian is now realizing the fact that the only hope of salvation for his age lies in the U. N. I. A., he is taking notice and manifesting an interest in the ausation that is most encouraging to all true Gayelleses. Gayellesism is not on the wave in Jamaica. On the contrary, it gives great evidence of expanding. The latest call to this division was from Frankelk where the commissioner and chief officers journeyed by motor car on Thursday, March 24, at the urgent request of many influential members of this thinking and progressive dissent to lay the plans for establishing what bids fair to be a strong division. Thursday is marked day in Frankelk, and those who were helping to that end, so arranged that it would be easy to get a ready made audience to hear the aims and objects of the associpation. A very successful meeting was held in the centre of the town of Frankfield, and if the reception accorded the speakers and the interest earned by those who listened to themals any criteri- on of the disposition of the people, and a sign of the future, then Frank- field should soon boost a division second to none in Jamaica. After all, all that Garveyism need anywhere is publicity and the people will do the rest. Let no member of the race be afraid or ashamed to give expression to it, in season or out of season, and soon it will embrace the world. It stands on the solid base of truth from which there is no better place to fight. ARNOLD J LECERNE. Reporter PHILADELPHIA, PA. Sunday, March 21, was another great day in the Philadelphia Division.

The first tires were put on the market in September, 1925. We also wish to call your attention to the great history of America. We are the Negroes in America to incorporate a First Combat Tire. The inventor refused $250,000 for this invention before a tire was made, but he dedicated it to the race and it cannot be sold.

Stock of the almog Dollars. us balance ppl for (Do El Mundo, P. R.) Horas antes de embaxar rumba a Santo Domingo, de donde se proponia pasar a Haiti, el senador King nos hizo las siguientes manifestaciones comentando la decisión del gobierno haltiano de impedirle su entrada a aquel país: "Cierto es que el Presidente de Haiti, Luis Borno, no quiere que voy a a sus dominios, pero aquí puede lo desea, y me interesa a mi más, muchismo más, la actitud de los haitianos a este respecto, por lo cual visitare a aquela república, según me propuse al salir de Washington. "Luis Borno no es Presidente efectivo de Haiti; sino una, figura decorativa a quién elevaron al poder nuestras tropas, por encima de la voluntad del electorado, en franca violación a todas las leyes vigentes de aquel país. "Para que se de used cuenta-de la situación que prevalecen in Haiti, voy a referirle la forma en que Luis Borno fue elevado a la presidencia, a pesar de que no es haitiano de nacimiento, algo indispensable para ser Presidiente de Haiti, de acuerdo con la Constitución de aquella república. "Ello fue en el año 1915, cuando el Gobierno norteamericano enviropas a Haiti, bajo el mando del General Russell. Tan pronto como estas desembargaros cariculeda una ola de proteta entre los haitianos, quienes trataron de repeler. la ocupa-militar de un poder extrato, protesta que fué acallada con la muerte de unos 3,000 nativos a manos de nuestros marinos. "Las tropas tomaron posición de la república, y por orden del General Russell, fueron destituidos todos los officiales del Gobierno, cerrada la Legislatura, y suspendida la ejecución de las leyes del país, realizandose el trabajo administrativo a través de decretos que expedia el General Russell. "Fué el General Russell quien nombró a Luis Borno Presidente provisional de la República de Haiti, procediéndose de poco después a la celebración de elecciones. Pero de acuerdo con una proclamada del General Russell, dichas elecciones se llezaron, a cabo en la siguiente forma: Luis Borno, Presidente provisional, designó un Consejo Ejecutivo, compuesto de 21 personas, entre los cuales figuran amigos particulares suyos y empleados de su oficina. Estas 21 personas estaban encargadas de elegir Presidente, y cosa natural y lógica, elegieron a Luis Borno. En esta elección se desatendió lo que al efecto provee la Constitución de Haiti, no ya en cuanto se refiere a las cualificaciones que deben reunir los candidatos presidenciales, sino que también en el procedimiento que debe emplearse para llevar a cabo una elección honrada, en que se retrate la fiel expresión y sentimiento del pueblo. "Al asumir la presidencia de Haiti, Luis Borno y su Consolio Ejecutivo abolieron definitivamente las sesiones legislativas, siguiendo instrucciones del General Russell, que era y sigue siendo el dictador de Haiti. "Los haitianos no han echado ya a Luis Borno del Gobierno, porque unicamente actúa siguiendo instrucciones del General Russell, naturalmente, el endoso y protección de las tropas americanas. "Al tener conocimiento de esta situación, yo denunció ante el Senado de Estados Unidos a Luis Borno y al General Russell, y solicité el inmediato retiro de las tropas americanas de ocupación. Borno se opuso a ello insistiendo en que las tropas eran necesarias al orden las tropas. Es claro, si le legan a quitar su unico sosten, los haitianos lo echan del país cinco minutos después de haberse embargado el último soldado norteamericano. "Yo he creído siempre que la ocupa- pcion norteamericana de Haiti constituye una nota militarista, en abjerté desacuerdo con las prácticas democráticas, al igual que fuid antidemocrática e imperialista la ocupa- ción de Santo Domingo y también actual intervention en Nicaragua. Por ello ataque esa ocupación y sojete que fueran immediatamente retiradas las tropas, y se deje a los hitininos en franca libertad para elegir un Presidente en una votación popular y honrada. Los haitianos no quieren a las tropas americanas y es injunto y invoque manteruelas alli por más tiempo; es una intervección odiosa para ellos, y no cobemos prolongarla. "Otra de las actuaciones del General Russell, fue abolir la disposición que existen en la Casa Constitucional de Haiti, en el sentido de Spanish Section que los extrajanos no podian adquirir el "control" de las tierras ni de las fuentes naturales de riqueza de aquel pais. Este es otro de los motivos que me hizo denunciar la ocupación americana de Haiti. "Presintate en el Senado una resolution en la que establece que Haiti debta ser los haitianos. La "Unión Patriótica de la Republica de Haiti", unico partido político en aquel país, y que representa al 99 por ciento de los habitantes, endos el proyecto, de declarar campion-de sus derechos, y me alentó a luchar para devolverles sus libertades patrias. Está opuesto a mi proyecto el I por ciento restante, que representa a los anigos de Borneo, oficiales del gobierno y de la administración, y empleados que por disfrutar de un salario postergan el derecho y la voluntad de todo el país. "Naturalmente que mi anuncia visita a Haiti tiene a Luis Borno muy preocupado. Como se me ha dicho que los haitianos preparan grandes manifestaciones, para recibirme, y se temia que estas manifestaciones fueran de protesta contra el gobierno de Borno y la ocupación americana. Eso es lo que tame Borno, que con mi presenza en Haiti, las multitudes, el pueblo todo, cobre nuevos brrios y se levante en su contra, como una ola arrilladora. Eso es lo que tame Borno, que cuando yo llegue, susgendarmes no puedan contener por la fuerza a esa cuadruhumbre que forma el 99 por ciento de los ciudadanos de Haiti que no les quieren en poder. Y Borno ha dictado que yo no puedo entrar al país. Pero con el derecho que me asiste como ciudadano que soy de los Estados Unidos y como Senador que soy de mi país, iré a Haiti, en donde flota la bandera de las franjas y las estrellas y en donde estan las tropas de mi gobierno, y unicamente impedía que yo entre en aquella república, que me obstructuya el paso las fuerzas armadas de Luis Borno. Entonces, ya vetemos. "Ahora, me dirijo a Santo Domingo, desde donde estudiara la situación. Si los gendarnes de Luis Borno han recibido instrucciones de impedir mi entrada a alpais por la fuente de las armas, ya veré la resolución que tome." La influencia china en el Egipto Ios acontecimientos trascendientes que se desgrrollan en China estan repercutiendo, en el Mediterraneo; pues se observa una nerviosidad notoria entre el pueblo del Egipto y la agitación contra Inglaterra se ha intensificado nuevamente de una manera notable. Altentadors por la actitud de este país al declararse disputos a renunciar a sus derechos de extraterritotjalidad en China, y por la de Inglaterra al acceder a hacer concesiones importantesimas a China a este respecto, los nacionalistas egipcios han feanudado sus trabajos, cuya mira principal es la supresión de las llamadas capitulaciones, que viven equivaliendo a los derechos de extraterritotjalidad que las potencias tienen en China y que la Gran Bretaña ejerce en Egipto, en detrimento de la soberania de este país. Los jefes nacionalistas, al mismo tiempo, han realizado una maniobra habil al manifestar que ya no persiguen con mira inmediata la completa independización de la pauja, de la tutela inglesa, sino que se conforman con que so le concededra la posición, que guardan los dominios británicos, convirtendido asl, de colonia, en alilado de Inglaterra, con la que, aJulio de dichos jefes nacionalistas, cesarian todas las convulsiones internas que viece experimentando el pueblo. Las autoridades inglesas, según se sabe de fuente fideligua, se mues tran preocupadas por el desarrollo de los sucesos, gunique procuran ocular sus temores y hacer aparecer la agitación nacionalista como carente de importancia.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 9, 1927 NEWS AND VIEWS OF THE DIVISIONS Opiniones sobre la inmigración del futuro El representante Johnson, presidente del comité de inmigración y autor de la ley del dos por piento se halla en vlaje de investigación por todo el país. Entrevistado por varios representantes de distinto períodots, comunlcn su creencia de que la restricción de la inmigración tenia tal demanda que probamente dentro de veinte y cinco años quedarin abolida por completo la entrada de extranjeros inmigrantes en el país. Este opinión mia dijo el representante, nace de la derecha con la constante del Congreso y del pais por la creciente demanda de la restricción de la inmigración. La pena que estamos nosotros pagando por la fusión de razas, es el dominio de un grupo o el dominio de una minoría, y para sostener nuestra forma de gobierno es necesario oboír el gobierno pro grupos, no importa quienes sean. Yo soy de la opinión que dentro de veinte y cinco años en este país se habra proibido la inmigración extranjera. Los estados de New York y los de la costa del Pacifico no son los únicos que dan pruebas de las desventajas que trae el mezclarse en problemas importados de Europa y Asia, y ya la ciudad de Nueva York ha anadido a sus muchos problemas de la raza.

Se dice que hay en la ciudad de Nueva York unos cien mil puerto-rriqueños y que están llegando a esta ciudad como estudianos americanos a razón deientes cleiños por més, y aunque las cifras varian es indudable que hay en Nueva York una numerosa colonia puertorriqueña. Ademas hay un gran numéro de individuos procedentes tal vez de otras republicas que con papeles de puertorriqueños han logrado acceso. Hasta la fecha esta ciudad ha solucionado con facilidad sus problemas, pero se preocupa por el problema que presentará la raza blanca y la raza de color con el enorme crecimiento de esta. Este es uno de los problemas de Nueva York y del país en general. Cuando una nación tiene ciento y ocho millones de habitantes y una ciudad tiene seis millones, el crecimiento natural es considerable. Espero a Nueva York con ocho millones de habitantes dentro de diez años; y en la actualidad ya tiene dos millones de habitantes de más que hacen la vida incomoda. Hablando de muchos otros asuntos relacionados con la inmigración y en contestation a una pregunta socre la suerte de Ellis Island si queda abolida la inmigración, el representante, dijo que entonces se necesitar más que nunca, putes el contrabando de extranjeros sera cada dia mayor, a medida que las restricciones de la inmigración vayan siendo mayores. were delivered by the lady-president and others, after which the offering was raised.

Magazine Section FRENCH NOW CONSIDER A SAHARA RAILWAY Proposed Line Would Link West Afrola- and the Mediterranean Sea Automobiles Grow In Favor ALGIERS, Algeria, March 3.—That phantom trans-Sahara, railroad that has frequently been discussed is now closer to realization than ever before. The question of 'a rail line linking French West Africa and the Mediterranean through the immense desert is engaging the attention of the French Government. A powerful group with interest in Algoria, Tunis, and France, has petitioned Raymond Poliche, French Premier, declaring that a means of desert transportation is an economic necessity. A member of the colonies commission of the Senate is preparing a report for submission to the officials preliminary to launching the construction work. There has been continued division of opinion as to the practicability of a trans-Saharan railway. More than fifty years ago there was talk of building a railroad. Exploration parties were sent intermittently in 1920 an off-sourse, was made-over the hot spots in search of a suitable route. But the opponents persistently forced the scheme to remain in exhaze. These orities argued that each a railroad could never be made to pay because it would run through unproductive territory unable to provide freight. Its advocates, on the other hand, pictured its advantages as a potential military factor, and as an instrument to bind the colonies, closer to the mother country. In case of war, the black man could be rushed northward in less time and with less hazard than by sea. Trade would be accelerated, thanks to the quickened transportation. The clipping of two-thirds from the time required to traverse the desert would be a booth to tourists. In December, 1928, Giles Carrin was commissioned to survey the Sahara. A chief engineer of the Road and Bridge Department and attached to the administration of railways at the Ministry of Public Works, Carrin was to chart a courses for the contemplated roadbed. He finally scrolled a suitable route along the Camel Highway, terminating at Waglidaugu, in the Upper Vella. Including the run from Granto to Colombo-Bechar, the entire railway would stretch more than two thousand miles, passing through Igil, Sont Abbas, Otaran, Taouril, Kidal, intersecting the Niger at Tosaye (which is about 180 miles east EAST INDIA HAIR GROWER Agents Wanted—Catalogue Free S.

In the meantime France has been occupied with restoring financial and political stability. Sadden, unexpected difficulties in the French situation obliged the legislators to shelve the projept. Moreover, the automobiles on the queendancy in desert transportation, and its inroads tend to strengthen the argument that a railroad is unnecessary. But with the franco breathing easier and comparative normality prevailing in French business, the plan has been revived to a point where action appears imminent. At least, business men and politicians in North Africa are trying their best to convince the Paris authorities that military and economic exigencies warrant a trans-Sahara line. Scientists Seek Life Secret in Whales BERKLEY, Cal., March 23.—In the belief that the pituitary gland, of the whole body the secret of the apure and structure of all animal life, the University of California is sponsoring a whale expedition off the coast of Mexico to collect glands for experimentation. The whaler Lansing, specially equipped, is operating off the San Clemente Islands, making about two kills a day. Unlike other whaling expeditions, this one is interested only in the pituitary glands of the great octoceans, and the carcasses are set adrift as soon as the tiny organ at the base of the brain is extracted and put away in a barrel. When the barrel is filled the expedition will have finished its share of the task and the glands will be turned over to Dr. Max S. Dunn of the university staff. Dr. Dunn and his staff will attempt to separate the constituent elements of the glands and find the agency or force which causes tissues to live and grow to seviathan proportions.
