VQL. XXII. No.12 Jurors Who Found Marcus Garvey Guilty On One Count Sign Recommendation To Coolidge For Release Document Forwarded With Third Application By Great Leader For Pardon Two Jurors Could Not Be Located, While the 12th Declined to Sign, Stating Trial District Attorney So Advised Him. The members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will be delighted to learn that the Hon. Marcus Garvey is much better and has been discharged from the prison hospital at Atlanta penitentiary, where he was recently confined with an attack of la grippe and asthma. He lost twelve pounds during his illness, but is now, let us fervently hope, on the way to complete recovery. His remarkable tenacity and courage, however, remain with him in full measure, as will be gleaned from perusal of the following brief message which he has penned to the millions of his followers throughout the world. An active, vibrant personality such as is his must of necessity chase under the restraint of prison walls, but the ardor, the spirit of the man, his faith in himself and in the cause he so nobly espouses are untrammeled by man-made circumstances. He writes: "There will be a judgment for the wicked, and I am satisfied to bide my time. I see manifestations of the coming day everywhere, so I am not alarmed or worried over what the small minds do. It is sure that with all they do they will not, in their frail power, be able to stem the tide of the coming day. "My imprisonment is but a drop in the big bucket of time. It is one of those incidents that must occur to point the way to human salvation. I gather greater strength and knowledge by all that is happening, so why be downhearted? "The little minds with whom those who seek my liberty confer and to whom they appeal can see no farther than their noses. They have no vision of humanity and world problems. Little in politics, so are they little in mind. They are small enough to think that imprisonment can crush the urge of men who found themselves in the plan of cosmic law." No greater testimony to the high regard in which the Hon. Marcus Garvey is held by his myriad followers could be found than in their splendidly persistent fight for his pardon without deportation; unless it be their great devotion to the prosecution of THE CAUSE in his absence. No week passes but that telegrams and letters pour into the White House praying President Coolidge to exercise executive clemency. The third application by Marcus Garvey for a pardon is now in the hands of the Chief Executive, supported by a recommendation for his immediate release, signed by nine of the twelve jurors who returned the verdict that sent him to prison. Two jurors could not be located, while the remaining one said he would have to consult Mr. Mattuck, the assistant district attorney who conducted the prosecution and who was amazingly severe on Mr. Garvey both during and after his trial. This juror eventually declined to sign, stating he was so instructed by Mr. Mattuck. Everything has been done that could be done to convince the authorities at Washington that public opinion, both white and black, is overwhelmingly on the side of the immediate release of Mr. Garvey. All now lies with Mr. Coolidge. And we venture to express the belief that he will not disappoint or ignore so large a part of the citizenry, which held him in such high esteem as to bestow upon him the greatest gift it was theirs to bestow. ive Page HEINOUS HERTZOG SLAVE BILLS DESIGNED TO ENSLAVE NATIVES OF SOUTH AFRICA TO GO BEFORE LEGISLATURE AT AN EARLY DATE Six Million Negroes To Be Denied the Very Means of Existence So That, One Million White Usurpers May Live in Plenty Exclusively Negroes Show Remarkable Ability to Advance and So Schiege Is Worked Out to Check Their Growth and Enslave Them in Their Own Land The following article, blandly describing the aims of purposes of the white policy of oppression under the Hertzog administration in South Africa, appeared on Sunday in the New York Times: At the coming session of the South African Parliament the famous four native bills, introduced by Prime Minister Hettzog, promises to be the most important legislation in the direction of a "white" policy so far enacted by the Union. The bills, which are aimed at the ultimate segregation of the 5,000,000 Negroes within certain reservations to be set aside, comprise a comprehensive program for solving the so-called native problem. Under the new legislation, license fees and certain color restrictions would make it difficult to impossible for the natives to receive employment in "white" territory in the future. Legislative Assembly, which to govern a territory adjacent to the Caucasus, he found that he was the first, white man seen by many of the natives. Despite their seemingly savage condition, Mr Nichols discovered they had a developed code of law and a burial system of government. After the years of administration he recorded their enchantment in the following rows: "Gradually I saw she change come over them as they came more in contact with economic life. The tone of the villages began to change. The old hospitality of the rogs canned Chiefs who before had not thought of the value of the food they grew began to demand payments for the slightest help. The returning workers brought back to their simple knives the economic standards or civilization." It is alleged that for more than a quarter of a century a policy compiling the natives, by taxation and other devices, to work for Europeans has been ablated in the agricultural and industrial life of the nation, chiefly in the former. It is now felt that the policy has been a mistake. The proposed native legislation which would unify this policy, is set forth to measure known as the Representation of Natives in Parliament bill, the Union Native Council bill the Colored Persons' Rights bill and the Native Land Act Amendment bill. This legislation follows closely upon the Color Bar not passed last session the white labor policy and the Native Land act of 1913. The last mentioned act provided for segregation which is to be carried out under the proposed new legislation. Fears for the Act The Colorian act it is, is especial will prevent natives from rising in the industrial scale beyond the most mental position by prohibiting their employment at any process that receives, transmits or generates natural or artificial power. Finally, there is the white labor policy, which appoints assert, is designed to replace all natives in Government employment by Europeans. Of the four bills the most important is the Lant Amendment act. The underlying ideas in it are these. That natives should be allowed to reside outside the scheduled reserves only as servants under the Masters and Servants act, and that equates (most of BAYER Does not affect the Heart Unless you see the "Buyer Cross" on package or on tablets you are not getting the genuine Buyer Aspin proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians over twenty-five years for Colds Neuritis Toxinitis Neuritis Each unbroken package is to take proper tablets for twelve tablets at least twice daily gists also sell bottles of Q and 100 the natives on the farms work under this system is to leave all farms. This is to be effected by means of house fees. The Representation of Natives in Parliament and the Union Native Council bill must be considered together, as they are designed to complement each other. Their underlying principle is that the natives have not yet reached the stage of development when they can be trusted with powers of local government, nor can they be entrusted to elect representatives to Parliament. The franchise enjoyed by the natives in the Cape for the last fifty years is canceled as a substitute for their former rights, a native Parliament will be set up in which the associations of the educated natives may be satisfied. Moreover, they will be given a communal vote by proxy in the federal Parliament. Rights of Natives Finally, the Colored Persons' Rights bill. This includes for the registration of gift natives who desire to become future voters. "Education tests will have to be passed, however, before natives are qualified to vote. The arguments favoring the abolition are somewhat as follows. Contact between the natives and White population has proved hard for both. It has had a demoralizing effect on the European and has prevented the native from developing along his own particularities. The natives have low standards of production yet because of their cheap labor they constitute the agricultural laboring class of the nation. There is consequently no place for the poor white population in the economic life of the Union, and conditions grow constantly worse. As there are about five and a half million natives, as compared with one and a half million white persons, the potential danger of native domination and an inevitably inefficient civilization. HINDUS GET MAJORITY OF JOBS IN-INDIA Their Predominance One of the Causes of Hatred Displayed by Less Educated Mohammedans CALIFORNIA March 22—The Hindu and Mohammedan populations are about equal in Bengal, and this adds to the feeling of religious hatred between the two masses. Jenuway is one of the chief names of the oudoy outbreaks between the religious rivalry, for at the present time the Hindus are getting the majority of the jobs the government has to offer. The Mohammedan does not absorb education as equally as the Hindu or year to spout Shakespeare at tiffin time like his rival. He prefers to sit in a corner and brood over the past glories of his race. Anglo-Indians who have been long in the government service state that the natives have been getting a squirt deal ever since England took over the country from the East India Company in 1758. In Calcutta one sees very little of the British soldier. Before the great war the regiments used to march along the Chowringhee with bands playing and coloured Dying. A colonel at Fort William states that the policy of the home government is against military display of any Kind. Rioters are apprehended by the civil police, and if they become gorgeous native troops are called on to assist in quelling them. The Calcutta Improvement Trust has pulled down rows of houses in the old native section of the city and is building wide thoroughfares leading to the principal points. One of them is Central avenue, which runs through the section by Harrison road where the plots usually start. At Kallighat Temple, located in this area, there are always ten to twelve British civil police on guard, in addition (a force of tall-billed Skikas, to protect the American tourists when they go to see the goats sacrificed. Suicides Most Frequent Among, the Unmarried Subtitle is more frequent among the summarized than the married according to a study of 307 cases made by Dr. Serrin, a physician of Paris and reported by the French correspondent of the American Medical Association. By Order of a President, By Grace of a Secretary, And by the Mercy of God! How a Negro, Retained at 72 as Kellogg's Doorman, Rose from Rank of Chief Messenger to Rating as $1,200-a-Year Clerk WASHINGTON, TON. April 23 — Edward Augustine Sayer, the 52-year-old colored messenger to the Secretary of State, known to generations of officers, and to signers at the secretary's office, where he has been stationed for eight years, was retrained by Secretary Kellogg today for two more years, preventing his former retirement from the service for age. He was appointed by Secretary Hamilton late in 1868 and has forsaken his past only once, when he accompanied the Peace Commissioners as messenger, in 1895 during the deliberations which ended the war with Spain. After attaining the rank of a chief messenger he was rated as a $1,200-a-month-clerk by order of President Wilson, on the recommendation of Secretary Brown. This was increased to $1,400 by Bainbridge Colby and to $1,500 by Secretary Hughes. — New York Times COLOR PREJUDICE STOPS ATHLETIC MEET IN SOUTH New Orleans Gives Up Amateur Athletic Union Meeting Rather Than Let Negroes Compete Race Trouble Would Ensure, Say Southerners NEW ORLEANS, April 21--The National Amateur Athletic Union track and field championships will not be held in New Orleans on July 1 to 4. It is planned because of the possibility of racial trouble over a meeting in which Negro athletes are permitted to compete with whites. It was decided at a meeting here this afternoon. The meeting was called by Mayor Arthur J. O'Keefe after an ultimatum was issued from New York by Fred Rublen, secretary-treasurer of the Amateur Athletic Union, saying that if New Orleans wanted the meeting the city must permit Negroes to compete and that the Amateur Athletic Union could not disenfranchise any person on account of race or race. Because of the possibility that all such interracial competition might cause race trouble, the business men who attended the meeting decided to withdraw their invitation. The racial issue between the Southern Association and the National A. I. was precipitated a month ago, Fredricw W Rubery, secretary-treasurer of the A. I. A., said last night when De Hart Hulmeel, the world's greatest broad jumper and a former University of Michigan athlete, sent a letter to local headquarters asking whether he would be permitted to defend his national broad jump title at New Orleans. Rubery was informed that Negress would not be allowed to compete. He then reponsed a copy of the A. I. A. rules to New Orleans which justified him as an介natimum, for the A. A. U. decrees that the rights of every amateur athlete must be protected. Arthur L. O'Keefe, Major of New Orleans and presidept of the Southern Association, called a meeting of the press and officials and the decision was reached yesterday that Negro athletes would not be permitted to compete, therefore New Orleans would not hold the games. A mail vote will be taken to determine a new place for the games. War Leaves 1,700,000 Surplus British Women LONDON, April 18. - The World War war has left more than 1,000,000 surplus women in England, an increase of 500,000 over the pre-war figure it was revealed in the final volume of British census returns. The preponderance of women over men was most marked among those of marriagable women, there being 1,470 unmarried women between the ages of thirty and thirty-five for every 1,000 unmarried men. Much smaller families also resulted from the war, as well as a reduction in the population increase rate. Despite this the population of England has reached 37,750,000, or one person an hour. Egyptian Cotton At the International Cotton Congress held recently in Cairo there was included a report on cotton cultivation. In it the lecturer admitted that the future of Exposition cotton could only be assured if the small cultivators, the foliars received much more encouragement than at present. Figures were quoted by the lecturer to show that out of some two million land holders only 12,000 had more than 400 foliars, and out of a total view of 533,033 foliars 233,366 were well cultivated. THE GOLD COAST HAS NOW BECOME 'CACAO COAST' British Constructing Harbor on West African Coast to Exploit Vast Production of Cacao—Gold No Longer the Lure WASHINGTON Engineers are giving England's Gold Coast Colony its first good harbor. Two cement-applied breakwaters are under construction at Tacoradi each of which is more than two miles long. Swarming in the stone quarries and along the walls of stone 'jurting boldly' into the Atlantic Ocean are 6,000 miltive workers, supervised by a hundred-engineers. "At Takoradi England has staked its pounds, in part at least," says a bulletin from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographical Society, "to the American glass of chocolate malted milk and the English cup of cocoa. "The Gold Coast Colony is the world's largest producer of cacao which is manufactured into cocoa and chocolate. In one recent year the colony shipped 54,000 tons of cacao, valued at $10,000,000, to the United States. Gold Given Way to Cacao "While the Gold Coast no longer puts its trust in gold, cacao has displaced the metal only within the last few years. For 400 years gold was the hope that glittered for white men on the Gold Coast. Gold mines built the railroad to Secoudecé, for which Takoradi is the port. In 1924 gold shipments reached more than $4,000,000, but the mines seem to be needing exhaustion. A geological survey of the Gold Coast Colony in 1915 revealed other minerals which may themselves relegate gold to the background Manganese and bauxite are important exports. This first is used in steel making and the second for aluminum. Of all the coasts on the coast of Guinea, the Gold Coast has been last to give up its coast. There were four 'The Grain Coast', where Liberia is today: 'The Iron Coast', which has given its name to France a Iron Coast Country, then the 'Gold Coast', which has become the 'cocoa coast', and finally 'The Slave Coast', the littoral of present Dahomey and Nigeria. The elephants that supplied the Iron Coast with ivory have disappeared, slavery has been suppressed in Nigeria since early in the nineteenth century, and it has been decades since Liberia gold grain in quantities. "Bound up in those names are funnel history and geography. Why should they be consta? Why not real names for the island like Virginia, Maine or British Guiana. The answer is that for nearly 100 years coasts were all that European know of this part of Africa. The Portuguese came and built trading ports. The Dutch the French and the English followed. Sometimes training stations were as close as eight miles to each other, as in the case of Dutch Samil and British Chelsea Rock. "Safe in their forts, traders lived and walked for the tribesmen to bring gold, slaves and twigs. They did not drive penetrate a 200-mile harbor of tanned tropical forest that stretches from the Gulf of Guinea shore to the edge of the Sahara Desert. Scene of Human Sacifices Finally, in the nineteenth century, the European nations began to consolidate their holdings in Africa. England took (from 1710) miles of the Gold Coast and can the border lines (including territories) back 400 miles. Three districts compose the holding First, the Gold Coast Colony itself, second, Ashanti Territory and, deepest, island, the northern territories border in the desert. The tropical forest has lost its territories for Europeans. The north railroad lines from two coast cities. Second and Acton, the capital at Kumasi the old island capital of the Ashanti tribes where human sacrifices were offered up less than 6 hundred years ago. Mogadishu, there are 400 miles of railroad in the colony and 4,000 miles of motor roads. Not only has the European host his part of this troop at forest but also he is putting it to work. Tropical forests will keep the new port busy not gold. Now that the natives have discovered steady profits in cause, it is difficult to burn their attention to other agricultural opportunities. For the production of palm nuts for palm oil to increasing, kola nuts are important and 'Akarian mangavog' boosts the export figures by $25,000 pounds. With better transportation and port facilities at Takuradi more timber will get to market. Rio logs had a vicious tendency to break away in the village had seen, so the Gold Coast shore is littered with battered dendrits of timber that were intended for Europe.

Englishman Addressing Church Council Flays Shortsightedness of Nations and the Church In Handling of "Color Problem" Declares That African Peoples Are with Him Wholeheartedly, and Continued Persecution Must React' Disastrously Against Oppressors The following article appeared in the March 17 issue of Abantu Batho, a native paper published in Johannesburg, South Africa, in the English' and African languages: MARCUS GARVEY The circumstances surrounding and leading to the persecution, prosecution and long sentence of Marcus Garvey evoked from the African National Congress in its plenary session in Johannesburg during April of 1925 resolutions on legitimate and moral grounds for the reconsideration and release from prison of Honorable Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and addressed them not only to the responsible authorities directly concerned, but also called the attention of the other great powers who are either directly or indirectly concerned in the derogation of the Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey or Africa for the African, Asia for the Asian and Europe for the European propaganda. If it is not wrong for any son of the European race to preach and awaken the just and racial consciousness of that continent to the realization and improvement of their lot, if it is right and Sir Austen Chamberlain, Minister for Foreign Affairs, said it was reasonable—that China is for the Chinese—that the Jews under their Zionist movement are allowed and humiliated merely every Jew and Jewess to found their national movement for Palestinian rehabilitation; if Irishmen, after hammering for centuries, at last obtained their home rule, then on what just or moral grounda is fault found with the black leader when he also sedulously applies his shoulder to the wheel for the improvement of his downtridden, degraded and exploited, enslaved and discriminated robbed millions of his race. But the persecution, prosecution and imprisonment of Marcos Garvey are an indisable attempt of the growing sense of injustice of the European race towards all people of different color. Truth may be flamed, but anger shall be stained. In less than ten years also prosecutions of Marcos Garvey have, politically and economically morally and educationally, awakened the slumbering race consciousness of black, brown and yellow races to action, and no amount of diplomatic imperial intimidation will extinguish the burning fire of determination implanted in the bosoms of teenage millions of black, brown and yellow races of the globe. Imprisonment and exile of Zaghul Pusha of Egypt, of Mozambique of Ireland of Gandhi of India and many others have not killed the fire of determination of their races from achieving their right and legitimate aims of getting their equal shares and taking their places along with other other races of mankind, and if it has been so in these cases, so it will be in the case of Marcos Garvey. His continued commitment in guel will sport disasters against his oppressors and also quicken the realization of his vision of a free and redeemed Africa, while attacks at the unassailable spirit with which he has revolutionized, the Negro will brand his persuaders as the enemies of freedom, liberty and fair play. Sheriff Is Given Modal for Saving TRANKFORT, KY. Agell 19 Sheriff P. R. Brown, of Graves county, who in 1924 saved a Negro from mob violence at Mayfield Ky. has been awarded a medal by the Southern Intercultural Commission, Governor Holde announced today. The award was the first of his kind to be made in Kentucky, and Governor Fields, in sending the medal to Brown, in behalf of the commission, congratulated him upon the splendid service he had rendered to state and nation. The handsome bronze medal bears a heroic figure with death ground standing in front of a temple of justice, surrounded by the legend "Defiance of Law and Civilization." The award was passed upon by a commission composed of Mon. Hugh M. Horey, former Governor of Georgia, Governor John W. Martin of Florida, the late governor Henry I. Whitfield of Mississippi, Mrs J H. Mc of Alabama, George B. Deales, editor of the Dallas News and Marshall Hill, editor of the New Orleans News. When a line of 15 men gather around the Mc building, W. H. Horey grabs the Nero's arm. Says Color, Far From Being a Weakness. Is Very Often an Advantage; No Nation Is Self-Supporting, and the Fatherhood of God and Brotherhood of Man Must Be More Than an Empty Saying RAPS COLOR BAR IN CHRIST'S CHURCH WHEN THE LORD HIMSELF WAS A MAN OF COLOR Rule by the Sword Accomplishes Nothing; History Teaches Ruling Peoples Rule Themselves Out—Color a Convenient Peg on Which to Hang Prejudices—The Church Must Shoulder Her Responsibility, Not Play Safe Following is part of the text of a speech recently delivered by Dr. Harold A. Moody, at Birmingham, England, before the Assembly of the CAIRU, April 19 — The ministerial crisis continues and from all appearances is likely to last for some time. Political circles have been busy all day bringing influences to bear on Premier Adly Pasha to induce him to withdraw his resignation, which the King has not accepted. Owing to the lateness of the hour of announcement in the Chamber, it was impossible for Adly to see the King last night to present the resignation, which he did at noon today, having attended with his colleagues a ceremony whereat the King presided. Adly's audience With the King was protracted, his Majesty having evidently used every endeavor to make Adly reconsider its decision. The audience ended without definite result, the King asking Adly to return tomorrow. This audience followed another given to Lord Lloyd, British High Commissioner, who remained a considerable time. the obvious that the resignation of the Ministry has pleased many, beast of all those primarily responsible, namely the Deputies, whose tribes in the Chamber recently in criticizing the Cabinet on every minor point drove the Premier to take the cohesion he did, feeling that he could not longer bear the strain of endearing to conclude the conflicting interests of the Palace, The Zaghloulist majority, which he but nominally represents, and the Residency. Although it had been evident for some time that Adil's position had become intolerable, the undesirability of its resignation came as a shock to those Deputies, who fear the present situation may lead to dissolution, owing to the practical impossibility of finding a successor, in the Premiership. Delegations from both the Chamber and the Senate waited on the King today, praying him to use this influence in maintaining the present Ministry. The 'Chamber' assembled but journed until next Tuesday. Kenya Native Attacked Lion to Save Official; Got Blanket as Reward Parliament amused recently when Lord Henry Coxendell Bentinck asked what action was taken by the Government of Kenya Colony to give official recognition on the brave act of a native who single-handed, attacked a lion which was mauling an Acting Commissioner. Mr. Ormsby Gore replied that the native was personally thanked by the Governor. When he was asked what gift he would like he chose Blankets. Lord Henry 'Is it not a fact that he has only received one blanket?' Mr. Ormsby Gore 'I am not aware of that fact. All I know is he was asked what he would like and he asked for blankets' - London Herald New York Blind Babies The Legislature of the State of New York has approved of the request made by Mrs. John Aldon, honorary chairman of the Department of the Blind of the State Federation of Women's Club, to increase the budget for the care of the two blind babies and young blind children not taught to the advantage of the State institutions. The appropriation now will proceed thirty blind babies at the rate of $15 a day, under the care of the international Sunning School, a Public Therapeutic Newspaper Club, with headquarters at 96 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Blind babies now from birth will given scientific care and training that they may be ready for the New York City Institution for the Blind and the State Institution for the Blind will then reach the proper kindergarten age. It is the duty therefore and within the hands of who has given the kindergarten the edge that further report the edge that the mother and mother lose the edge that I am keenly sensitive to the honor you have done me in asking me to address you today. but I view my presence here, not so much as my honor done to me, but using a tribute paid to my race and as an earnest of your desire to find a solution for the problem about which I am now to speak. Not that I deem myself capable of breaking my new ground and thus, throwing fresh light upon this thorny problem, but that my very presence will continue you that a solution is possible. The Race Problem There are many avenues along which we may approach this very intricate problem. I want, if you will, to adopt the method of the scientist and proceed to examine some of the underlying causes the roof with a view to discovering the most efficient remedy. It cannot be denied that the immediate cause of the race problem as we know it today is the close proximity into which the races have been brought by our modern scientific development and the sport which has been given to these developments by the Great War. As the races have been brought closer together so have they discovered grounds for antagonism. These grounds constitute the more remote but none the less real cause of the trouble. To enumerate some of these real causes of antagonism I would mention the anatomical or if you prefer the morphological—the size and shape of the head. One has only to face an audience like this to realize that in any one race, there can be found skulls most typical of every race into which ethnologists have classed humanity. We can therefore immediately dismiss this feature. Then there is color. I want to say that I do not consider that color per se is of such fundamental importance as some would lead us to believe. As a matter of fact granted certain conditions, it may be an Asset Rather Than a Distadvantage. Color is indeed an element of importance but only in so far as it is a most convenient person which can change their other traits. Some of the nations of the world are completely self-supporting. They are independent. It has been said of Great Britain "The plains of North America and Russia are our cornfields, Chicago and Odessa our granaries, Canada and the Baltic our timber forests, Australia contains our sheep farms, in the Argentine and the Western prairies of North America are our herds of oxen, Peru sends her silver, and the gold of South Africa and Australia flows to London, the Hindus and Chinese grow our tea for us, and our coffee, sugar and spice plantations are in all the Indies, Spain and France are our vineyards, and the Mediterranean our fruit garden, and our cotton grounds which to long have occupied the Southern United States, are now being extended everywhere in the warm regions of the earth. We are by no means alone in this dependence upon others for the essentials of life. Such interdependence in absolutely inevitable in the nature of the world in which we live with its varying density of population and its unequal distribution of natural resources. The balance cannot be adjusted by one group of statesmen, thinking in terms of their own country alone and using their political power for economic advantage. This will obtain for a time as in the case of China, but also as in the case of China the sins of the fathers will be allied upon the children. No politically we must realize the Increase Your Weight 5 Pounds in 30 Days Or Money Back Increase Your Weight 5 Pounds in 30 Days Or Money Back Doctors and good pharmacists know that most Labs will be full of vitamins that make their creations the build up the power to protect disease and put up good solid flesh on skin, mind and women.

McCrae Laboratories Inc. 62 W. 11th Street, New York City NEW YORK HOSTS STANDING FIRM: REMARKABLE SHOW OF SOLIDARITY It's Fair and Warmer at Liberty Hall as Steadfast Followers of Garveyism Convince the Enemy That Nothing Can Dishearten Them HON. FRED. A. TOOTE SAYS, "DO NOT LET UP" Announces Illness of Dr. J. G. St: Clair Drake, International Organizer, and Resignation of Hon. W. A. Wallace, Secretary-General NEW YORK LIBRITY HALL, Sunday Night, April 24—Those who seek to discourage and dishearten the Garvey host may well seek other employment. For they are dosed to be disappointed and denied. The more the enemy knocks the closer do the defenders of the truth convict the gobber, presenting a solid front to the enemy which none may pass. At least, such was the impression that even the casual observer might have gained on looking in on Liberty Hall tonight, on the occasion of the weekly mass meeting of the New York local. Hon Fred A Toote, acting President-General, in business-like mood, tired but earnest, occupied the chair. There were no officers supporting him, for, as he announced, Hon Dr. J G St Clair Drake was on the sick list in Philadelphia; Hon F Levi Lord was out on tour, so were Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis and Madame M. L. T. De Menna, while Hon W. A Wallace, Secretary-General, had tendered his resignation, to take effect in a couple of weeks. The last named was away also on tour, at the conclusion of which his official connection with the organization will terminate. A splendid musical program was rendered, preceded by the usual excerpts of the units, after which Mr. Tate made the announcements for the concerts, week and introduced the speakers. As for himself, he asked to be excused from making an address, stating that he had just returned from an evening at Philadelphia. The speakers of the evening were Mrs. Margaree Joiner, Professor William Lowry and Mr. H. Smith, a member of the New York-local A report of the addresses follows. MR. LOWRIS ADDRESS Mr. William Lawry, a Field Representative of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was the first speaker. He enthused his hearers by informing them that his daughter, who had recently gone to Lubin, Africa, to do missionary work, had written to him, in terms of great appreciation of the motherland, and that she desired nothing better than to remain there. Time was when he sought to assemble her, but now she was inspiring him. CONTEST NOTICE On April 30 our Great Literary Contest closes, and essays are urged to send in their contributions without delay to the Contest Editor, The Negro World, 140 West 130th Street, New York City. All you have to do is to choose from the book, "Philosophy, and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," Vol II, a brief passage, which, in your judgment, is the most forceful and inspirational and which supplies the greatest racial urge, and tell in your essay the reasons for your choice.

She had written to tell him that the country was nothing like it it was painted to be. It was realt a beautiful country with a beautiful climate, and while in New York it was difficult to buy land, in Africa 60 acres could be acquired for practically nothing. She had asked him to encourage the people of Liberty Hall, New York, and the people everywhere with whom he came into contact to continue with the glorious work, confident that their laborers were not in vain. It was her intention to write a series of articles for The Negro World in the near future recounting her experiences and giving an inkling of the people there a people whom she had found to be unusually intelligent and likable. MR. H. SMITH'S ADDRESS Mr. H Smith, a member, was then THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1927 improved by Hon. Fred A. Toote. He said he was proud to belong to an organization that had succeeded in blazing the way of Negro nationalism. Everywhere you would throughout the world, you would find no institution in the world such as the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It was in reality an improvement association, and he was proud to be part and parcel of it. And he could not refer in terms of praise to the movement without passing to a compliment to its 'distinguished founder', the Hon. Marcelo Tavarey. He had been there良愿, a thank you task, as it sometimes appeared but he had endowed a service to the race which only time could properly estimate, and long after he had disgusted from the scene of action open and woman's pay, a unified nation, would be singing his praises. The speaker ended with an appeal to his hearers to continue with undiminished zeal to put over the program. Success was assured, for nothing could stay the advance of unified forces. MRS. MARJORIE JOYNER'S ADDRESS Mrs Margot Joyner was the near to speak. Fusing to make announcements in connection with the pageant which she is organizing in aid of the Liberty Hall Mortgage Fund she said she would first make a few remarks. Now was the time, she thought, for each and every one to take an inventory of themselves. They ought to be able to draw a line and open up an account, and on the one side put the good things they did and on the other side all the bad things. On one side should be put the constructive work, and on the other side the destructive work, on the other side good will and on the other side bad will. She invited her hearers to check up as she went along and see how many things they could put on the good side and then see how many things would fall on the wrong side. Every one should go over in his or her mind and see what they had done that was worthwhile speaking of: what had they done to make the world a better place in which to live, what had they done that tended to tour down and what that tended to build up; what had they done to hearten, to encourage or to improve some one, and what had they done to cause anyone to lose his job, or his prestige or the good will and respect of others. It was necessary to do this because only when we saw ourselves might would we be able as a race to put over the great proposition. The speaker, after a few more remarks of an encouraging tenor, outlined the arrangements she had made for holding the pageant, and announced the names of the ladies who would present the various countries of Africa. HON. TOOTE'S DETERMINATION HON. TOOLE'S DETERMINATION Hon. Fred A Tootle, confessing that he was烫 after a very strenuous day, having just returned from P.adelphia, where he had conducted a mass meeting, reminded his hearers that they must not abate one lot of their interest in the fight to save their Liberty Hall. He observed that the skill of distrust and doubt was still at large, sapping the determination of some, but these things must be. A pledge had been made to the people and he was prepared to carry on to the best of his ability and compel those who were ill equipped to waver to fall in line and carry the standards up the heights. Ohio is not the place for Jim Crow, hat-in-hand Negroes. This is the land of freedom—but we must fight for it. Dayton Forum. A Remarkable Manifesto by a Thinker Apply the Warnings and Injunctions Which Manuel Ugarte Addreased to the Youth of Latin America, to the African at Home and Abroad and You Have a Deadly Parallel to the Preachments of Marcus Garvey From his set eat in Nice, MannaI trapi mistake The tone of the Ugarte, the Argentine author and publist, who for many years has been trying to arouse his fellow Americans to what he considers the menace of "The Colossus of the North." The recently launched the following manifesto to the youth of Latin America: "Three names have echoed through and by every inch the heart of Latin America during the last few months Mexico, Nicaragua and Puerto Rico have inhabited the quering margins." In Mexico imperialism is endeavoring to break the resistance of an indomitable people defending its future in Nicaragua the same imperialism is debarking conquering legions in Panama it is imposing a treaty promissuring the independence of that little nation. And as a logical corollary a thrill of solidarity rushing among the young people from the Rio Grande to the Straits of Mackellan translated into the slogan we launched in 1912 'Latin America for the Latin Americans' "For twenty years I have been fighting against our disperse and our impatience. For having denounced these things, I have sacrificed quiet, fortune and my political future and find myself poor, expatriated and defamed. From my retreat I recidulate the honor of having continued my persistent preaching uninterrupted since 1905, of having published four books on this subject, of having founded in Buenos Aires the first Latin American Association, and of having traveled over the Continent repeating my stubborn convictions. Aside from ephemeral vanities I cite the foregoing so that proved fidelity to an ideal may give my words the weight needed at the present moment. "Above the episodes of the battle which has been waged for twenty years it is necessary to consider the facts from their origin and in their real significance. bauda Nation's Self-Criticism "Nations are greater when they severely analyze their own errors than when they hastily pass judgment upon others. And in the new era that is opening we must develop most of our vigor to prostesting against our own leading men, who did not know how to forge the consequences of their complicacy, who did not have a continental vision of our destinies, who, obsessed by the idea of a limited nationalism and by group Interests, disdainfully applied the label of 'poets' to those who raised their minds to a superior Ideal. "It will appear monstrous, to those who will judge us tomorrow, but any tendency toward a world policy was considered a sign of impacacity to govern. Each individual followed his own ambitions, each group its own partisan plans, each nation its major hatreds. Latin America was devouring itself, like the Gaula in the days of Caesar, or like the Azteca upon the arrival of Fernando Cortez. And for the dominant groups anything tending toward a policy of solidarity was inexperience abuse of lyrical and extreme madness. "In this mistaken political orientation we must look for the origin of the offenses that cause us to protest today. Those responsible in the first line are the men, or the groups, that guided by a false, concept of our necessities, by hasty imagination, by factional passions or by territorial rancors, allotted its rights, sanctioned by their silence offense against their neighbors subscribed to the postulate of the protection of the Monroe Doctrine, and collaborated with imperialism in the Pan-American Congress, while in the shadow the cancer was growing that was to threaten their common vitality. "The sine that have given begin to the present situation arises from faulty vision or a limited aim. And these are exclusively the sine of the pulses. Our nations were always great and generous. Although the peoples have been kept in ignorance of the true situation they have a presentment of what is going to happen in the future. If they have not opposed this fatal policy with more vigor it has been because the truth has not been allowed to reach them. But these a power should have known. And the first conclusion we are able to draw from present events is that we are in the presence of the bankruptcy of a policy. "Too Small for Their Jobs" "I speak for all Latin America, not excepting the regions that today are apparently unhurt, and I speak without anger toward anyone or anything. The men may have been bad or good. What the evidence shows is that they were too small for their jobs. Making a cult more of the appearances of the nation than of its reality, they believed that governing consisted in maintaining themselves in power, in multiplying loans, in judging the difficulties of the day. In their various incarnations — tyrannia, oligarchia, legal presidents — they endowed first of all to defend group privileges or local susceptibilities, without any sense of the continuity of progress in each country, without any notion of linking up with the bordering regions. "It was their lack of vision that at home turned over to foreign companies, without any equivalent, the mines, the monopolies, the concessions and the loans that were later to cause conflicts, tutelage and landings of troops, marking of them paralytic countries only able to walk with foreign crutches. It was their failure to divide future necessities that multiplied among the other republics the conflicts settled later, with the venerous imperialism as arbitrator. There is no example of a region so rich, so vast, so thickly populated allowing itself to be bound hand and font with such organum, decor.

"At the beginning of the civil war Latin America was able to support in the poor bulk of the Latino in urgent demands for war making and financially competent. The most elemental, legal councils are attituded to partiality toward her. Many of our governing men lacked the poor courage necessary for such a money. And it came to light that at that imperialism and got set thrown off its music. Without going back to the annexation of Texas, California and New Mexico, this unfortunate was just giving the measure of its ambitions by imposing the Platt's amendment upon Cuba and dismembering; Colombia Nevertheless, a silent House of whose famous phrase, "I took Panama," was still resounding everywhere was received in our capitals with the honors of an apology. The sole excuse that our politics might influence is that they did not suggest the consequences that might arise from their attitude. But this very excuse is turned against them. Persons who cannot see twenty years ahead have no business directing the destinies of a collectivity. Tolls a Mexican Experience "In order to classify a state of mind I need only cite one incident from among many." Miller in 1917 I was invited by the University of Mexico to give a lecture of conferences under the Carring regime, the Minister accredited by that country by Argentina spontaneously went to the Mexican Foreign Minister in order to tell him that if, in view of the objections caused by the Institution, the Mexican Government should decide to prevent my entry, he as the Argentine representative, would not make the slightest protest. General Aguilar is alive and can verify my words. Thus our South forgot, not only the respect due to a citizen of the country, but also its own interests and its mission in America. Such was the paucityility which, in order to put an end to annoying preaching, attempted to discredit the propagandist. "Thus were born the miserable legends that placed me in the position of wondering who ought to be despised the more profoundly, the unmerciful persons who put them into circulation or the persons without a person who allowed themselves, to be foiled by them. And on top of this impatience I was weighted down by the point of witnessing the loss of justice by my country. For a country where column becomes pamphlet in a country carrying lead in its wings. " "The helpless emotion of some governing men cannot allow themselves that will weigh down the future political equilibrium change with the years. The policy admissible in 1914 is no longer possible. Circumstances have changed and, and to say sorry, it is getting more difficult to arrest an bloc and in a complete panic. the laws of imperfection of things, the rules of the who who did not do the time we shall perish, find ourselves obliged to negotiate with it tomorrow.

And sometimes it is necessary. The majority of the government men are aware of the example of a system and we are not against an existing order of this against planners which in more than one instance linked as interests with those of the invader. Against petty politics, which made reverence to Washington in order to gain power against the conspiracy which to own our house hospitals the place of impenetration on countries are bleeding at every point for the benefit of foreign capitalists of some native holders of private houses, without leaving anything but sacrifice and unrestraint for the immense majority. "It is finally necessary to lay down a policy as against the chronobiotic individuals that for a century modified our strictest unanimity. It is necessary to begin to create a continental consensus and to develop an activity that will not be transmitted interdivision, but individals. "The increasing drawing together of our republics as a possible body of the ratification of which we should initiate by means of a program of constructive reforms in every one of the existing states. One of the first of these reforms ought to be an arrangement for the two temporal granting of the rights and duties of citizenship to the nation of the sister republics with the exception of deferred for the time to take the right to the Presidency on to the principal Ministerial posts. This will facilitate federal union." "It is also necessary to establish a Superior Commission of Latin America, charged with studying with consideration of the situation, a common international course, a homogeneous financial policy and a common educational system. Its mission, for the time being, would be to suggest plans to be applied later by the respective governments. Above all it is necessary to proceed, without the loss of a minute, within our Latin America in family to settle equitably and peacefully the little frontier conflicts that delay the harmonious march of the whole and allow dangerous interferences. "Resist or Go Under" "The hour is more serious than it seems. Let us not wait until we are under the locomotive in order to notice the danger. We are facing this dilemma: Resist or go under." "The valuation of American resources now emerges and will be, above all, the work of the modern generation of the people of the pamphlet majors elegantly specified." A global metamorphosis is obliged to bring to the surface the waters that sleep in the depths in order to qualify to create, in consequence with what we really are a policy of audacity, of enthusiasm of youth.

NEW YORK CITY first to know himself and his resources and then how best to use them to his own and not to the advantage of others. The white races have learned this lesson and are conquering everything by reason of it, but when they abuse the conditions of the trust, they are thrown down and destroyed in the evening process. And the evening process is one of the most insistent and persistent forces in evolution. Let us encourage the Negro to secure the education he needs, and the Universal Negro University on the James River is the place for members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to make their best effort at such encouragement. Charity begins at home, you know. NEGRO HEALTH CONDITION IS A NATIONAL RATHER THAN RACIAL QUESTION QUITE 150 outstanding physicians of the Negro race from all parts of the country attended the recent annual meeting of the John A. Andrew Clinical Society, which is part of the Tuskegee Institute, and they quite unanimously agreed that the health of the Negro people is National rather than a racial question, and the readers of The Negro World will agree with them. Disease draws no color-line and establishes no color bars, it visits the rich and the poor, the high and the low, as the case may be. And this is as true of endemic as of epidemic diseases. Disease is disease, however it is differentiated. The main thing about it is that it is no respecter of race or color. Like a prairie fire it eats up everything in its way. Those who are affected by it, therefore, are wise when they regard and treat disease as a common enemy, to be met and combatted as such. Dr. Agernon B. Jackson, President of the Clinic and Director of the Department of Public Health of Howard University, at Washington, stated the views of the members, which will find general acceptance, in the following: Public health must always remain the business of National, State and Municipal Government and the officials chosen to carry out their laws. However desirous and anxious voluntary organizations and groups may be to put into operation a large health program, they can get but slight success without demanding and obtaining a scientific yet heart interest from those public officials chosen by authority to do the job. "No one will rejoice more than myself if some one will prove my next statement is incorrect. I do not believe that there is in all America a State, county, city or town which is doing its full or even its half duty in attempting to relieve the health conditions among its colored citizens. "This policy of neglect and indifference is unscientific, inhuman, unsound, unsanitary and un-American. Yet it exists everywhere because no large movement by Negroes has endured and persisted long enough to humanize their activities and set the machinery to work. The addition of trained Negro personnel to health departments will do much to solve this problem." Every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is vitally concerned about this question of health, which depends so largely on proper housing, sanitation and clinical control and regulation, because Negroes everywhere live in segregated districts, for the most part, in all of the large cities, and are discriminated against by the city fathers in the matters of paving, lighting and water, for the streets as well as for the housings. We have been startled and appalled at the ruinous conditions of health that prevail in many large cities, especially in the South, and the attitude of the city fathers, who appeared to assume that the health conditions of the Negro was none of their business, when as a matter of course it should be their first business, as diseases of all sorts germinate in and are distributed always from the Slum districts of cities and towns whether the dwellers of them are of the black or the white race. It is fortunate for the Negro people that they are developing a strong body of physicians, who have much race pride and public spirit, and are beginning to exercise a large and helpful influence in securing for the race better living conditions that make for health in every large community, and they are gaining the sympathy and support of white physicians and those who have the administration of public affairs. Health Week has become an established fact in the life of the Negro people, and it should grow every year, with the constant work of local medical associations of our own for its main support and encouragement. After all, there is no help like self-help. If we show no disposition to help ourselves others will not be called upon to help us. And no man, no group of people, live to themselves alone. In every community each member is a helper or hinderer, a source of strength or of weakness. And it is the first duty of parents to look after and safeguard the health of their children. They do not always do it, and neglect their own health as well.

PRESIDENT-GENERAL GARVEY'S ILLNESS The members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association were greatly grieved to learn by the last issue of The Negro World that President-General Marcus Garvey was sick with the gripe and asthma. Under the most favorable conditions these complaints are very treacherous and difficult to deal with in the prison conditions forced upon our President-General they are vastly more so. We are told that "the masses of the righteous availeth much." Let us pray without ceasing that President-General Garvey may soon be restored to his normal health, and that he may soon be released from confinement, which makes so strongly for impairment of the most healthy body, and returned to the work and the people that so much mass and need his physical presence among them. AFRICAN NEGROES NEED PRACTICAL ON the fact of it many may ask, what is practical education? That is a reasonable question. Many thinkers dealing with it would give many answers, most of them differing the one from the other. And here is some explanation of the mystery of man, which is the greatest mystery with which we have to deal, although the mystery of God has been placed in the forefront in all ages on which we have record and for purposes of confusion, because we can come at the mystery of God not at all unless we first solve the mystery of man "in the image" of whom. He said in the beginning, "let us make man, in our own image, male and female." The story is told of the philosopher Diogenes, that he went about the streets of Syracuse with a lighted lantern. When a neighbor asked him what he was hunting for he said he was hunting for "an honest man." The times were so corrupt that his neighbor girl did not stop to use the matter, but he would have stumped the philosopher if he had told him to search himself, as he would not find an honest min among his neighbors unless he found him in himself. That is to say, "Know thyself." How many of us do? Most of us imagine that we do, and are effectually blinded by our ignorance, and are constantly going farther astray by seeking elsewhere for what we desire and have within us, or in our homes. Education may be defined as practical when it teaches a person how to make the most of his talents in building a foundation for himself and for his family, and for the people of the times in which he lives. Striving to do this along the lines of least resistance often defeats its purpose as accomplishment, perfection and supremeest enjoyment in what has been gained comes only by ceaseless aspiration and striving for what we desire. We never properly appreciate what we get without effort what comes to us as an inheritance or in indirect ways. It is the way of the world, but few understand and never cease to complain of the opposition and difficulties they have to overcome, instead of striving ceaselessly and courageously to overcome and to triumph. Super-men in our times, like Sum Nat Sen, Mahatma Gandhi, Beento Mussolim and Marcus Garvey, first get the vision and then master the education they need to accomplish their purposes. And men like these succeed where they seem to fail. They sow the seed but do not always live long enough to enjoy the fruitage; they reach the Jordan, as Moses did, but they do not always pass over to the other side. The man who sits around moping about the injustices thrust upon him is usurping his vitality and wasting his life. Everybody is too selfish, too busy with their own affairs, to worry about any other person or race "Look out for number one" may sound selfish, but it pays in the long run. Western American. The eternal superiority of the American white man over the Negro expresses itself in so many ludicrous forms that one wonders if it is felt to be based on merit or the mere assumption of tradition. Birmingham Reporter. What the Negro needs everywhere is practical education, and the Universal Negro Improvement Association has planned to give him such an education at the Universal Laberty University on the James River—an education that will teach him to know himself and to properly evaluate his social, civil and economic resources. The first thing is to teach him to know himself and his resources. When he knows these all other things will come easy to him. Before the World War the Germans were the most highly educated and specialized people, and not only led the world in literature but in the arts and sciences, which they applied as well to philosophy as to productive industry. If they overreached themselves to the extent to conquer all others less educated than themselves, less masterful they but followed in the footsteps of those of Babylon, Greece and Rome, who went out beyond themselves to find what they possessed within themselves and thus lost everything. The ancient world was an environment in its culture with Egypt, the mother of literature, arts and the sciences, and they would all have endured to the present if they had been content to enjoy their own splendid resources instead of seeking to conquer others and to enjoy what other possessed. The disposition to covet the possessions of others existed long before it was prohibited as a vice in the Ten Commandments. But man learns little by experience in the master wants it he gets out to get it by further means, but they have always to pay for wronging others. But, of course, the African has not stood still and does not mean to stand still. There surely must come a time, an education spread, when he will be able to command his opportunity in the highest points of the service. And it is as well that our European friends have denied with prejudice should get used to that eventuality. After all, this is the black man's country, and the European can only be a solourer and a bird of passage—Gold Coast Leader.

The Successful Man Oh, he is not the most successful man who drives the finest car, owns the most acres, possesses the largest bank accounts, lives in the best appointed and finest house. Often the most successful men in the world are those who never owned a car nor possessed a bank account. Bomb of the world a most successful man are those who have been unheralded and unknown to public notoriety.

This is news of greater significance to the whole world than the split in the ranks of the Chinese nationalists, or war clouds in the Balkans. In spite of our prayers and appeals to the Department of Justice and President Coolidge, in which thousands of other nationalities joined, this man, wholesome only offense, if such is, against white civilization is the arising of a race 100,000,000 strong to the wrongs brutally visited, upon it, still languishes an prison, a splendid example of democracy's conception of the rights of weaker peoples. And while he suffers a mighty storm that portends no compromise is gathering momentum in Africa, the longer he suffers the fiercer it grows in intensity. Our brilliant institutions seeking to preserve the peace of the world such as the League of Nations, the churches, the laus, and the interracial commission should make themselves interested in the early release of Marcus Garvey—his death in a white man's prison occasioned by the ruins of prison life would not be such a pleasant thing for white supremacy. And no one knows what tragedied such a tragedy would inspire. For the peace of the world and the good of all grant executive clemency to Marcus Garvey. The following editorial culled from "The Pittsburgh Press" is inserted here for the interest it should hold for Garveyites at this time. LIBERTY CRAVING AND ITS POWER A convict known as "leg Jack" Gordon recently was captured in Knoxville, Tenn., ten months after he had broken out of a New Jersey prison, where he was serving a 12 years term. Because he broke jail and assaulted a warden, 15 years have been added to his prison sentence. Informed of this, he smiled and fold his captors that his ten months of liberty were worth far more than 20 years in prison. With that remark, he went back jauntily to serve out his time. Jack Gordon will be an old man when he gets out of prison, if he does not die there. Judging by his record, it would seem that prison is a pretty good place for him; certainly he need not arouse any sympathy. Yet his remark contained a profound truth; and as he resumes his old job of weaving chair bottoms or plecking pumkin on whatever they do in Jersey penitentiaries, we can ponder on it for a time. To a convict in prison, any sort of state where one is not watched constantly by a man with a gun is liberty. To a man on the outside, liberty may need much clearer definition. Yet both men want it—may, must have it if they are to live—and most of the trouble in this world comes because some people feel that some other people are denying it to them. Liberty is not a thing that can be denied forever. Given a conflict in his cell, sooner or later, is apt to break loose, and when a nation instead of a long conflict is involved, the breaking out is terrible to behold. If you don't believe it, think of the revolutions that France and Russia indulged in after centuries of slaves. We may well beware how we infringe on the liberties of others. We may also take pains to understand this craving for liberties. It will help us to understand, for instance, the feeling that animates the Chinese just now. You can catch a conflict and put him back. You can't do that with a whole nation. Some day you hope to go to Africa. Mrs Amy J. Carvey, brilliant wife of our great leader, has just rendered the race another invaluable service. Cut out her trenchant editorial appearing in the Negro World for April 16th, 1927. Frame it or file it carefully where you can reach it at the opportune moment. Let every division display it prominently in its Liberty Hall. If you have already made your plans compare them with the advice and instructions coming from Mrs. Carvey, then make the necessary adjustments. Make no mistake about it, there will be very little time for pleasure when we get in Africa, it will be work, work, work, till your eyes are heavy and dim work, work, work, till you the victory win. Take in all your Coney Islands, Atlantic Cities, dance halls and cabarets on this side of the pool, you won't see any in Africa for at least fifty years after you have landed. If you have nothing to do, do it here brother. If you haven't got enough of the old time, religion over here sister, get it while the getting is good, once in Africa we are going to work as hard for 300 years building a nation as we have worked over here building churches and founding new needs. Get that editorial and study it carefully, Brains and superb manhood and glorious womanhood, these we want in Africa, nothing less. Roland Hayes, celebrated tenor, scored a wonderful triumph last Wednesday evening April 20th, in Carnegie Music Hall, Pittsburgh Pa. Critics stamp him as the world's foremost surgeon of Negro spirituals, but it appears to me that he deserves greater praise for his brilliant presentation of the classics of Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven, Schumann and Griffes. To hear Roland Hayes sing is to dwell for a few brief moments in the company of angels. To be with him in a music hall is to live in Beulah land. If the simplicity of Christ makes itself manifest in the resonant tattle of a child, then His genius is supreme in the voice of a Roland Hayes. He is not merely a great concert artist but ostensibly an impregnable spiritual force awaying civilization in spite of itself. And a rarity that produces an Alexander Hamilton; a Booker Washington, a Tanner, a Dumas, a Marcus Garvey, and a Roland Hayes cannot die—there's genius in its insufficient to destroy the rookest prejudice and hurdle the most obstructive obstacles in the quest for racial freedom and independence. A Lecture on Health By Ernest E. Mair We are assembled here tonight to talk - About our health And health, the savanna say, is more important by far than wealth: But everybody's serious so I reserve the right To make my comment combil and treat the matter light My rules for keeping strong and fit are sure to interest I look upon all health crusades as undiluted pesta. Go strut your stuff all over town and go to bed at dawn. Spend every cent you have and then put all your goods in pawn. Eat all the lobster thermidor, drink all the wine you get. Astonish everybody by the rapid pace you set: Be sure to smoke an awful lot, and every night get drunk This talk about intemperance is all a lot of bunk. Indulge yourself without restraint in every game of chance. Test out your heart competing in a long-endurance dance. Don't spare yourself in chasing fun, don't let your blood get cool. And you'll be dead inside a month, you poor deluded fool. American Jesuit Heads Philippine Province MANILA — The Rev James J. Carlin of Massachusetts has been named Superior of the Jesuits of the Philippines, succeeding the Rev Joquilid Mihonga the Spanish Superior, who has retired. Father Carlin is a prominent American Jesuit and has been president of the Ateneo de Manila, a Jesuit academy dating back to the sixteenth century.

ALICE ASSERSON Of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Treatment of Cuts When some one in the household accidentally cuts himself you may be called upon to give immediate assistance. It is important to remember that great care must be taken not to infect the wound. By attempting to wash it out and clean it you may introduce more germs than you remove. First pour over the cut a little iodine or hydrogen peroxide directly from the bottle. Then wash your own hands thoroughly with a clean brush using plenty of hot water and soap. After this do not touch anything but the sterile handpiece, which you will apply quite firmly to the injured part. If the cut is a severe one and this bleeding profuse send for your doctor immediately, but try to stop the bleeding by making direct pressure on the injured part with a wad of sterile gauze or cotton. If the blood comes in spurts, indicating that an artery has been severed, make direct pressure on the wound, but also try to stop the bleeding by tying a hankerchief, tourniquet fashion, firmly above the wound—that is between the wound and the heart. Thus you may render valuable first aid before the doctor arrives.

The statement indicates that the position is even more serious than the public have been made aware of by the newspapers. Several deaths from starvation are actually vouched for, and it is stated that the Bochum Hospital is crowded with patients, most of whom are suffering from the effects of famine. In districts under our observation; and also to outline, such methods of relief as we consider might be adopted. Heart-Rending Suffering. The Berlin missionary in charge of Maitala's and Malebogo's locations, Bochum Hospital, and a large area to the north bordering on the Limpopo states: "Recent journeys to the north- The statement is as follows. We, the undersigned, members of various religious bodies working as missionaries in the Pietersburg district of the Northern Transvaal, hereby desire to bring before the Government and public such facts and information as have come to our direct knowledge with regard to the effect of the drought upon the native peoples among whom we work. We are anxious not to over-estimate the sorrieness of the position and, while fully aware that in six months' time the plight of the native will be much worse than it is now, we are at the same time convinced that the position is such now as urgently to demand the institution of relief measures on the part of the Government. Statements made from time to time by responsible authorities to the effect that there are still cattle in the locations and ablebodied men who will not go to work apply only to certain places. There are a few cattle left—very few compared with the numbers existing a year ago—but they are not public property, nor are they at the disposal of the starving individual. Ablebodied men are finding it extremely difficult to get work, and those who are not to be described as really able-bodied are in many cases turned away if they try to get taken on in the mines. We are at a loss to understand the reply, of the Prime Minister to Mr. Paya given in the House of Assembly on Feb. 18 to the effect that: (1) There is no actual starvation existing among the natives in certain areas of the Transvaal. (2) The condition of the native-owned stock is, on the whole, not unsatisfactory. (8) In one instance only has application for relief been made, etc. We would like to point out that natives who fear imprisonment for failure to pay hut tax or other reasons hesitate before applying to the authorities for relief; and the native in general is not aware that there is any official from whom he can obtain relief. Also, we would like to ask on what detailed investigation, if any, General Hortzog-haas his statements". We are convinced that statements such as these serve only to full the public into a comfortable feeling that there is nothing to be done. To counteract this, we desire to draw attention to the following conditions which ob- Great Company Offers Easy Way to Make Money This is certainly the land of opportunity. An old established company which has advertised its products for years and made a great success, is looking for women "who" want more money, a home of their own, a nice automobile, fine clothes, etc. Everybody wants these things and no doubt thousands will get them by writing the company. A feature of the plan is that each person will be their own boss working as little as they please. The company said they had a plan and had a lot of letters of thanks from people. Women readers of this paper who are interested ask for information from the Nowhere Mfg Co. 789, Newport Bldg, Atlanta, Ga. (Adv.) tain in districts under our observation; and also tooutline, such methods of relief as we consider might be adopted. Heart-Rending Suffering. The Berlin missionary in charge of Malafa'a and Malebogo's locations, Bochum Hospital, and a large area to the north bordering on the Limpopo, states: "Recent journeys to the northern part of my diocese have given me a vivid impression of the drought, and its consequences on the natives. "Without exaggeration we may state that the natives in these parts have had no crops at all during the last two years, and the crop of 1927 threats to be a severe failure in some parts, as even a good rain will be too late to save the crop. I have heard of, and seen, heart-rending suffering among the natives. Whole families and small tribes are on the move in search of food from their better-tuned relatives. Even the native evangelists, who receive a small remuneration for their-services, have asked leave in order to visit other districts in search of food. "The prices for grain asked in the country stores are abominable; natives who bring a cow to the store will harter it for grain. Some of the natives are trading with peaches and other fruits in order to get some grain. Others have left the district to get work on farms or in mines but they have returned, as there is no work for them. "The Bochum hospital is crowded with patients who are suffering from minor diseases, but it is mostly the famine which is the cause of wounds breaking out, and, of course, they know that while they are in hospital they need not worry about food, as it is supplied to them. Most of them who are told that they are cured and must be dismissed flatly refuse to go elsewhere, as they do not want to miss their regular rations." **Children Ato Ashes** "While traveling north in the beginning of this month I heard a sad story of two native children who scratched the ashes of the fireplace and ate them on account of hunger, and consequently died. I hear'from my evangelists in Matthala' that the columblay is even worse there than here. The natives lost nearly all their cattle on account of drought and were consequently unable to plow their lands." The head of the Berlin Mission at Medingen, near Dulveil's Kloet, in the Low Country, quotes: "Lower down from here, where the rains have been very scarce, the prospects still look bad. Up to now the nageves have been able to buy from local stores of the farmers, but these are getting exhausted by now. An insect post which shows this year more than in other years consists of the worms in the stalks of the meailles, but generally, as soon as the rain comes along, these disappear again." We can actually vouch for five deaths from starvation. 'Also that there is very severe suffering from want of food, families being in some parts reduced to one meal every three days. Moreover, there are immense numbers living from hand to mouth, and that before the winter has begun. It is safe to say that such people are faced with definite starvation unless something is done at once. Suggested Remedies Such and some of the conditions prevailing today. The following are the methods which we would suggest as suitable for adoption:— (1) The Government to establish food centers throughout the drought area at distances of ten miles from each other. (2) Meallo meal to be provided at these centers for those who prove destitute. (a) by written declaration from doctor, missionary or magistrate. (b) on personal application in a state or starvation. (3) The Native Affairs Department to be responsible for distribution in, and to these centers. (4) When possible, work to be done in return for free food. (6) No free distribution of food to any family, where father, mother and THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1927 children are in receipt of money wagons amounting to £1 per month or over (6) Local relief works to be established for natives pay at the rate of free food and in per day (paid weekly).

Haynes, the fearless President of the Pittsburgh division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was forwarded by him to the Editor of The Negro World? "It has been necessary, for reasons which will be readily understood, to exscribe certain parts of the letter, but it remains as furnishing a very clear insight into the revolution of thought in black Africa today mainly as a result of the hard work of the U. N. F. A. and its great founder, the Hon Macus Gayrey: "Hon S. A. Haynes, President, "Pittsburgh, Pa, Div, U N. I. A. "Greetings. "I thank me the greatest pleasure to pen these words to you. Sir, I express the unbounded joy on receiving a letter from you dated October 16, 1920; to which I replied on the November, 28, 1926. I wonder whether you received the letter or not as I didn't hear from you since. I wrote another letter to Sir William Ware which was returned from Cincinnati, Ohio, as unclaimed, having right address. For that reason I doubt whether you received the one I wrote to you. Sir, I express my gratitude and gladness on reply to our letter, after reading this letter to the members and friends, and in our meetings as we hold our meetings in the open places as we have no halls yet, and native, ministers are against us, they don't allow us to have or hold any meetings in churches or schools because they have this spirit of a white man, keep bigger down as much as you can help it.

"In Transvaal we are working very heavy. The white race taught the black race that a black man will not achieve his destiny, telling these so-called educated natives that if the Universal Negro Improvement Association pass through with their propaganda to redeem Africa Garveyism will treat them worse than a white man. But most of our people who read The Negro World are awakened, because your speeches are encouraging us a great deal. This letter you wrote to us everyone who read it or heard it in the meeting highly appreciated. "U. N. I.

We are entering into an epoch friendly revolutionary in ideas. It is necessary to achieve the second independence, renovating the continent for democracy and for youth.

FLOOD DISASTER IN SOUTH HITS NEGROES HARD Thousands of Negroes Destitute and Homeless—Suffering Certain to Be Protracted Unless Liberal Help from Unaffected Sections Is Forthcoming The reports from the stricken regions in Mississippi are strikingly bare as they relate to Negroes, but judging from their references that have been seen in the lengthy reports which appear daily in the newspapers, Negroes form a very large percentage of the sufferers.

This number will be replaced however by another thousand who are being brought from Lake Lee, twelve miles south of here. Six thousand Negroes are encamped on the lake and 4,000 white people are quartered in hotels and other buildings in this flooded city. Mitchins have been erected on the concrete wharf. Food brought to the whole population is reported on route to the city, and Red cross officials stated that tents to house every one would be erected by tomorrow. The plan now is to erect a repaired city on the lake, which is twenty wide. The city will extend to a distance of three miles or more. of the 19,000 persons who are planning to remain here throughout the period of the flood, 6,000 gир Negros.

Rescue work in the northern flood area is being pushed by the Coast Guard, which today ordered a relief party, consisting of the entire personnel at Louisville, to proceed to Cairo to aid in this task. More than 2000 refugees have been taken out by the Coast Guard cutter Kunkakee. Huge Losses Estimated Reports to the Red Cross from every part of the flood area all agree that thousands and thousands of farmers have lost practically everything they had except the land itself. Horses, mules, cows, hogs have been drowned by the hundreds of thousands read reports received by Director Baker of the Red Cross. The increases are floating everywhere and constitute a increase in health of the lost magnitude.

Here is a problem of grave national importance and the people in happier and more fortunate sections of the country will have to bear their part of the burden necessary when the true comes to solve it. The cotton loss will go into the millions of dollars, as the flood zones include the very finest cotton in the Southern States. There may be a chance to replant in some sections, such as the valley of the Arkansas River, which just now is on a rampage all the way from Fort Smith on the Oklahoma line to the Mississippi, and the same is true in parts of Mississippi, Louisiana and Eastern Arkansas, but no matter what happens, a crop such as is grown under normal conditions will be, say those who know this country, impossible this year. The arduitultural loss may go as high as $500,000,000, and there are some who estimate even higher. But this will not be the only loss of gigantic proportions due to the record breaking flood. The humber industry, for instance, will suffer a loss running into the millions, the Hardwood Manufacturers' Association of Memphis estimated, in a statement issued last night listing 124 large hardwood mills that have been flooded out of business and with more expected to go under before the flood is many more days old. Roland Hayes Has Remarkable Reception At Closing Recital Holand Hayes, famous American Nogre tenor, sang last night in Carnegie Hall to a capacity, house a program of classic, modern and Nogre folk music, to which he brought all the resources of natural talent and acquired art which have won him the admiration of music lovers the world over. The unique gifts of this artist in the interpretation of music covering a wide range of style and period have through his frequent appearances in this city become well known to the concert-goer public. All these characteristically wore in evidence last night. The refinement of style, the delicate restraint and the clear diction, coupled with emotional terror and, in the spirituals, a palpete colored with the poignant veering of his race. Mr. Hayes introduced his program with three songs of the 17th and 18th centuries, J. W. Frank's "Sel Nut Still", Luill's "Chaimers Ruisseaux" and Cacacini's "Amaeill", to which he brought his familiar qualities of delicate nuance and sense of melodic lines. It may indeed be said that in the large auditorium some of the numbers suffered somewhat from an over-referment of style, with resultant loss of vocal resonance and carrying power and even occasional buskiness of tone. The second group was devoted to three Schubert, Ider, "Schwangenesong," "Der Jungling an der Quelle," which was repeated, and "Die Liebe hat gelogen"; also Schumann's "Der Nussbaum" and "Ich hib in Traum gownetel". To this group he added as encore a setting of Paul Laurence Qumbr's "Dawn". George Henschel's "Morning Hymn," sung with admirable legato and sustained tone; Jensen a "Murmuring Zephyra," raised from its inherent sentimentality by the restrained art of the singers, Warren Storey-Smith's "A Caravan From China Comes," filled with exotic warmth and atmosphere, and Roger Quilter's familiar "Love's Philosophy" made up the following group, which was followed by four spirituals, including the singers' own arrangement of "Deep River." The audience was reluctant to leave and Mr. Hayes added several encores. William Lawrence, who has often appeared with Mr. Hayes, provided piano accompaniments of impeccable taste and musical understanding. — New York Times.

DRAKE International Organizer In Rousing Address to Washington, D.C., Division Scores Negroes for Economic Apathy. The following address was delivered recently by the Honorable J G Stalr-Drake at the Y M C A Auditorium in Washington, D.C. at a large mass meeting held under the auspices of the Washington Division, Universal Negro Improvement Association: Since it is true that no chain is stronger than its weakest link, so far it true that no nation is stronger than the weakest of its local communities, and, by the same rule, the world is no stronger than the weakest of its nations. The thing that counts most is unity. This the Negro race lacks. The yellow and white races are both more united than the Negro race. We are more scattered, not only from a geographical standpoint but from a moral viewpoint. There are 14,000,000 Jews all over the world, yet Jews run the money markets of the world. Take, for instance, not long ago there was a large theatre that catered only to Gentiles. No Jews or Negroes were allowed. One night three Jews bought tickets to the theatre. On their way in the usher stopped them and told them that no Jews were allowed. The next morning the Jews thought the theatre for two million dollars. That same night, replacing the Gentle ticket seller, was a deuxes, and when the show opened, with the assembling of the crowd, consisting mostly if not entirely, of Gentiles, it was announced, to the surprise of all, that no Gentiles were admitted. In this instance the Jew did not go to court to settle his equal rights, as a delegation of Negroes did the other day by going to the President to advocate civil rights. The Jew, put over the deal by unity. We are like sheep without a sheephead. Racial consciousness has made the Jew. If you insult one Jew you have insulted all Insult one Negro and you haven't insulted anybody. I was in Vicksburg, Mississippi, not long ago, and a colored man took me to the place where I was stopping. On my way there I asked him how the colored people got along with the white people. He replied that he had been there thirteen years running on the street, and nobody ever insulted him. He said that all you had to do was to know your place, and nobody would bother you. I asked him his place and he was dumfounded. He realized that his place was that of a semi-slave Negro Feelo Inferior The race has been discussing effects too long. They must study fundamentals. There is a reason why Negroes are separated and divided. It is because of conditions that have existed for nearly 400 years in this very land of ours. The Negro has been taught, in the first place, that he is an inferior element. That has been his doctrine. He has been taught a psychology foreign to himself. Negroes feel that if they were white, they could get along a great deal better. I have never seen the time yet that I wanted to be anything but a black man, and today, more than ever, the Negro ought to be proud of himself. Why you are the coming people. The Negro race is the coming race. The white man has given me ground for pestilism. Civilization has revolved back to its creation. The white man is destined for destruction because he has lost his moral virtue. The white man has committed more moral scandal among its social circles and the elite than Africa has. When you think of an episode like the bath tub, Patty Arbuckle, Peaches Brownling, it gives you an idea of what the white man's civilization has come to. The black man is coming back to build another civilization, purer than the one under which he now lives. But how is he going to do it? You can be nationally and internationally strong, as you are locally strong. We divide from each other in our own localities. We are not united because we are too selfish. It is characteristic of colored people to be like the crab, that is, if I cannot get out, you will not get out. If I cannot establish a grocery store, no Negro shall establish one. I watched the Jews and Italians in Pittsburgh and other large cities. A Jew will buy a house and live in the basement. He will rent out the rest of the house to anybody who wants it. The other Jews will help him and, in the end, everyone has his own house. When a Negro buys a home other Negroes knock him. The thing we need most is the spirit of co-operation in our local community. No, we sit around and dream and complain. I have noticed in churches when people get up to give their testimonials that they invariably say something about coming up the rough side of the mountain. Has anybody ever come up on the smooth side? Obstacles are meant to help and not to hinder us; if we 603-52 Kaulig Avenue, Caldwell, N. J.

You cannot help somebody else without helping yourself it is because of the wrong psychology taught us that we are separated and divided. A Negro studies for a day. A white man studies, for thousands of years. A white man says "I have had a hard time, but my children will not have the experience that I had. He prepares to make it possible for the boys and girl of his own race to succeed. Negroes say, "Well, I had it hard in my day and you are not better than I am." Negroes have been taught to watch each other ever since slavery, and to report to the white man every morning. The black man is still reporting to the white man every morning. It has been the cause of numerous lynching; in the South White psychology must give away and a racial psychology must take hold of us before we can do much as a race. Color of the face does not argue inferiority of race. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. There is no much power in the arm of a black man as there is in the arm of a white man. "Our people have misconstrued the aim of the U. N. I. A. Marcus Garvey has done more to consolidate the race in the past eight years than has been done since the existence of the Negro. The U. N. I. A. has brought us all back to the conclusion that we are all one common stock from one common lineage, and that stock is African. What race ever hated their Fatherland? The Jew teaches this children that Palestine is the most beautiful place on the earth, and that some day they will return to their Fatherland. The Irish do not despise Ireland. They point with pride to the Emerald Isle. Turn your eyes to the British. They are proud of their Fatherland! Everybody is proud of their Fatherland but the Negro. The Negro despises his Fatherland. Africa is the largest and richest continent of the world, yet Negroes despise it. They refer to it as a dark continent. Is Africa Dark? In what respect is Africa darker than any other country? Can you teachers of geography and what-not help me? The thing that smokes a country bright is the moral virtue of its inhabitants. The moral vision and character of a country stand out imposingly. Negroes do not make research. They talk too much and investigate too little. We have not learned to keep records. We have not paid any attention to the statistical records in connection with our race.

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

TOOTE Acting President General DETROIT, MICHIGAN The meetings held under the auspices of the Detroit Division from April 5 to 8 for Sir Levi Lord, Chancellor and Executive Officer of the Parent Body, were favorably successful.

A. its aims and accomplishments We also had Dr. J. M Gregory, Dr. Dr. Water and Attorney J. Milton Vanlowe as participants in the program The mass meeting on April 10 was on unusual one. Hon. Jr A. Craigen, our executive secretary, who just returned from his visit through the Southern States and Nassau, British West Indies, and to see Hon. Marcus Garvey, filled the audience with new inspiration and courage to forge ahead when he related to them the appalling conditions prevalent in every section of this continent and what he saw and heard while on his tour. He stated that conditions are almost the same everywhere, as far as it affects the Negro. The program was very entertaining and educational. He spoke afternoon and evening. The other participants were, as usual, filled with enthusiasm. April 17 was Easter Sunday. The president stated that since it was the day on which Christ arose from the dead he decided to make it an extraordinary affair for the Detroit Division.

Craigen, executive secretary, and Hon. L. D. V. Smith, the president, were the main speakers.

Several new members were taken in. The Sunday school, under the supervision of the chaplain, Rev. R. L. Harrison, held religious services in the morning, which also had a large attendance, and the juveniles and Sunday school together carried out the night's program.

At this point the president made his closing address—and the meeting was brought to a close by the singing of the National Anthem. YOUNGSTOWN, OHIO Youngstown Division No 123 is still talking about the great mass meeting it enjoyed on April 4, the occasion of the visit of Hon. S. A. Haynes. The program was short and entertaining. Bishop J. D. Barber acted as master of ceremonies in his masterly way and also conducted the financial rally with his usual success. He introduced Mr. E. S.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1927 The Most Wonderful Ring in the World The vip was best made during the 18th century by a Spanish goldsmith and won immediate favor. The Spanish Nobility, Priest, Judges, Singer, etc., valued the rightly bright, it is down from father to son. Its fame has been guarded by Mrs. Nella Kline, Knox, Tennessee, writings "Since I received my ring a change for the batter has taken place in my life." I consider it my most precious possession.

Spanish Section Los rigores de la prisión afectan la salud de nuestro presidente general SECCIÓN EN ESPAÑOL por La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra 142 West 130th St. Ciudad de Nueva York, N. Y. PROF. M. A. FIGUEROA, Editor Los miembros de esta. organización universalmente, se.apesadumbrarán al tener conocimiento de la reciente enfermedad del Hon. Marcus Garvey, quien ha sido llevado al hospital de la prisión padeciendo de un ataque de gripe, combinado este con el asna de que ha sufrido por alguien tiempo y que agravun los rigores de la prisión. Nuestra contribución a la civilización redundara en respeto y consideración a la raza—Razón para la constitución de una nacion africana—Continuemos la lucha emprendida en pro de nuestro enaltecimiento. Nuestro presidente general ha dejado demostrada su conformidad y ha sido un prisonero modelo. *El no ha presentado un esplendid ejemplo de paciencia y resignación, pero los miembros no deben pensar en que todo marcha a la medida del desgo, por el liceo de que su leader es un valeroso resignado. El progreso del hombre es juzgado por lo que este haya realizado. El mundo juzga a las razas y a los individuos por sus hechos en el camino de dicho progreso. La civilización contemporanea es muy exasta; ella divide a las razas y a las naciones en dos grupos. El grupo progresista es altamente reconocido y respetado; el otro gupo es ignorado, odiado y en la mayoría de los casos repelido. En este grupo oeupa el negro un puesto sobre saliente. ¿Y porque? Preguntamos nosotros, a lo cual el mundo responde: Porque el negro aun nada en concerto ha realizado. Si bien es verdad que los miembros no pueden dar a su leader salud y libertad, pero pueden fácilmente ayudarle a conservar su salud cooperando con todo, aquellos a su alcance, en la realización de la gigantesa empresa en que estamos interesados, guiando los multipes asuntos del movimiento por camino recto y así librar su mente, de toda intranquilidad. La organización afronta al presente una de las mas grandes difíquultades en su historia; esto es, el conservar el tempo del garveismo, el Liberty Hall de Nueva York, de modo que permanece como propiedad exclusiva de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, un monumento al distinguido fundador de la organización y a los principios que ella sustenta. Que podía contribuir, mas a la mejora del gran leader como su conocimiento de. que el Liberty Hall esta salvo de toda sombra de duda, porque los miembros han respondido a la llamada de salvación. Podemos admitir el que una raza se regocje en la creencia de un ilimitado amor fraternal; pero cuando consideramos seriamente el problema de la humanidad, basado en el materialismo del presente, llegamos a la conclusión de que tal hermanad no es reconocida ni respetada, a menos que ella no represente adelanto. El negro es estirado y encogido universalmente, porque progresivamente nada representa; porque su contribución a la civilización moderna es practicamente nula. Compenetrada de ello, la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra adopta el alto ideal del establecimiento de una nación prepotetnte de la raza, la cual fortifique la estructura de nuestro progreso y afianze solidamente nuestro provenir. La tercera petición en pro de la libertad de nuestro presidente general, esta ya en manos del Departamento de Justicia. Nosotros no podemos libertar, pero podemos enviar peticiones continuas a aquellos que tienen tal poder. De otro modo ellos considerarian nuestro silencio como indiferencia. Mientras el negro no haga tal contribución a la actual civilización, mientras no demueestre adelanto en su línea independiente de progreso, no podrá elevarse en la apreciación del mundo a un nivel mas alto del que ocupa en la época presente. El negro vanidoso podrá decir: Yo estoy educado, yo represeñito la nota más alta en inteligencia, yo soy graduado de los mejores colegios y universidades de Europa y de América. El financiero orgulloso de la raza podrá decir: Conqué autoridad se dice que no representó progreso, cuando mis instituciones bancarias giran con tantos millones de pesos? Generalmente el negro podrá decir: Tengo mi hogar, he procreado una familia, tengo tantos pesos en el banco; quién dice que no he progresado? Y a todo esto nuestra organización responde: Todo progreso que el negro haya hecho, toda posición que el negro se haya conquistado, estan sujetos el uno y la otra a la censura del mas fuerte, toda vez que dicho progreso y dicha posición no esten respaldados por un poder constituido. Nuestra raza, requiere verdadera dirección; la clase de dirección que el Hon.-Marcus Garvey tan valiente y desintensadamente prove. Aquellos de nosotros" que profesosme SCIENTISTS FIND TOMB OLDEST IN EGYPT Underground Crypt Believed to Be That of Man Who Founded Science of Medicine 5,000 Years Ago CAIRO, Egypt, March 81.—Discovery of a tomb estimated to be fifty centuries old, dating back to the Third Dynasty of the Ancient Pharaohs, was announced today. Exports say it may be the earliest tomb ever found in Egypt. The find was made by Cecil Firth, who has been conducting excavations in behalf of the Antiquities Department of the Egyptian Government, at Sakkara, a village near the ruins of Memphis. Near Sakkara is the famous step pyramid, believed to be the oldest of the Egyptian pyramids. Nuestro elemento vive superficialmente; el usa y consume aquello que el otro le ha facilitado para su comodidad y para satisfacer sus próplos deseos. Stempre que continuemos pidiendo prestado el vestido que haya de cubrir nuestro cuerpo, estaremos expuestos a la intemperie pues este tarde o temprano se nos será quitado, y si no queremos experimentar tal desagrado tendremos que proporcionarnos nuestro propio vestido. Tal actuación de parte de nuestro elemento es la causa por la cual, tanto la raza blanca como las demás razas, le tengan postergado y por ende se le guarde tan poca consideración, utilizando deseel como el blanco donde se descarga todo escarnio, toda intriga y toda avejación. The tomb is located on the boundary wall surrounding the step pyramid, and was discovered only after a long and difficult search, owing to the extensive precautions taken by the builder to conceal it. It is thought, but not yet established, that it is the burial place of Imhotep, architect to King Zoser, who built the step pyramid. Imhotep was greatly revered by the ancients, being considered one of the wisest of men and founder of the science of medicine, the law and, other branches of learning. Todo pueblo, toda raza tiene su propia cultura, tiene su propia civilización, llamese chino o japonés; ya se encuentre establecido en Europa 6-en Aslá. El oriental se halla altamente satisfecho con su túnica, su sombrero de pános torcidos y sus vestidos flotantes; sus ideales le hacen feliz. El hombre blanco goza de satisfacción con sus trajes a la última moda; se vanagloria con su prosición adquirida por medio de la conquista. El negro se conforma con su desnudez; la decepción le agobia debido esta a la poea ejercitud y buen uso de su poder, como unidad factible de la gran familia humana. A deep stairway of 100 steps leads down through an obscure tunnel in the rock. Branch tunnels and stairways lead to a series of underground rooms, the walls of which once were blue tiled like the rooms in the stop pyramid. The rooms still bear the remains of interesting limestone reliefs and decorations of the period, including the portrait of King Zoser. In one tunnel twelve magnificent alabaster wine jars were discovered.

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

Magazine Section Mr.J.A.Rogers, Well-Known Author and Journalist, Describes Incidents of Travel On Tour of European Lands Mr.J.A.Rogers, Well-Known Author and Journalist, Describes Incidents of Travel On Tour of European Lands Written for The Negro World By J. A. ROGERS There are so many interesting places in Rome that it will be possible to touch barely on a few in this concluding article. From a historical standpoint the most interesting place in, of course, the Foro Romano, an enclosure of perhaps not less than a hundred hedges, the heart of the old Roman Empire. Approaching the Foro Romano, the first point of interest will be the Carcere Mumertino, or Mangerline Prison, where the Apostles Paul and Peter were placed by order of Nero. It is a gloomy, underground dungeon entirely of stone, with barely enough room in the cells to stand erect. No one could complain of oddling prisoners in titoso days. Entering the Foro Romano, which is open free on Sundays and holidays, one sees a vast mass of broken columns strewing the ground, with a few forlorn ones still standing, sometimes held together by bands of metal and gigantic masses of brickwork. All of this, it must be explained, is not the handwork of time, but that of man, who broke down these buildings in order to get the rare Nunidian mabble. The Ghehs and Vandals, it will also be recalled, descended on Rome, smashing everything they could find and giving us the word "vandalism." In this place were, no less than a dozen great temples, among them that of Saturn, where the treasures were kept; that of the Empress Faustina, with her name still on the horizontal carving; that of the famous warrior twins, Castor and Pollux; that of Janus, with its double face of Peace and War, giving us the word "Janus-faced," or hypocrite; that of the Vegetal Virgins, who keep the sacred fires of Rome burning incessantly for more than a thousand years; that of the Empress Julla, on the steps of which the body of Julius Caesar was burned after Arthrolys's famous oration; while mightiest of all that of Venus, part of which was later turned into a Christian church and is still standing: One feels quite a thrill when he recalls that on this same spot once trod Augustus Caesar, who, dead and turned to claw, will stop a hole to keep the wind away; the Harlot-Emperse, Messalina; Pompsey and Cataline, and Cleoor, and all the rest. In the hollow at the foot of the hill is the remains of the Forum in which they all held forth. An interesting place nearby, on the outside, is the old Jewish Ghetto, a word meaning cut-off, and the forerunner of all ghottes. It began its existence about 20 B.C. when Pompsey brought the first Jewish captives to Rome, and lasted until 1880 A.D. Less than seventeen years later, however, the Jews had become a power to be rocked with, as in the case of the Negro, who, forty-five years after his descent entry into Virginia, found himself faced with a law prohibiting his buying "white people." (See Honing's Statutes of Virginia, Vol. 2.) On the hill is the Palatine, one of the famous Seven Hills, adorned by the palaces of the Caosars, now denuded of their costly marble and but great cliffs of brick from which one may get a fine view of the city. The gardens are still there, with orange trees laden with ripe fruit. Descending again, one finds himself among arches of brick so lofty, and spacious that when the Christians came into power they used the space as churches, many of which still bear their decorations. In the vicinity is the Coilouism, so grizzled with age that it hardly seems to be the handwork of man. This structure, which is almost half a mile in circumference, was compiled in so A.D. by the Emperor Titus, and took the labor of thirty thousand slaves, who were all freed. The Coliseum was, opened with a performance lasting one hundred days, during which several thousand gladiators and wild animals toro one another to pieces. Readers of "Quo Vadis," will also recall how the Christians were thrown to the lions in the great arena, now but long sections of mannery with great holes between. One faces like going into Ingersollian rhapsodies on seeing the Coliseum, for on the spot on which raged such harbours and bloodshed are now parties of tourists and children playing hopscotch. Much of the Coliseum, like that of the buildings in the Foro Romano, was also despoiled to furnish materials for other buildings. Considerable restoration has been done by one or two of the Poges. Not far from the Collioure are the Baths of Caracalak, a structure hardly less imposing than the Collioure. This bath, which could accommodate more than a thousand persons at once, was also a cultural center, with libraries and art galleries. In several of the pools may still be seen the hot-water pipes and the beautiful mosaic. This bath is but one of many. Bathing went out of favor, however, with the Christian regime, and seems to be still out of favor in Catholic Europe, broadly speaking. Many of the chrysanthes prided themselves on the fact that they never bathed, hence the phrase "odor of sanctity." In this vicinity—Via Corchi (Circus street)—are the ruins of the Circus Maximus, where the Romans held their athletic games. The stadium accommodated 300,000 persons—similar four times as many as the Colosseum. Those old Romans certainly built with a robustness and vastness of conception beyond modern man, but it must be recalled that they had the example of the Greeks, who in turn had that of the Egyptians and Egypitians. 1448 Sherman Street, Detroit, under the auspices of JUDGE NICHOLAS KLEIN, of Cincinnati, will be the principal speaker MISS CELESTE COLE; Popular Coloratura Soprano, will entertain with several new numbers One could go off to write of such interesting places on an old Aqueduct, the Imperial Forum, the Pantheon, the Doria Palace, the Villa Borghese of San Stefano, the Ethiopian Church built in 450 A D; the American Academy, the Rocca di Papa, or Pope's Book, of Frasconi, the suburb in which Cicerio lived, and the palace of the Vatican, where the Pope lives, hence since must be reserved for mention of two of the leading ones—the Catacombs of San Callato and the Vatican Library. The first is to be found on the famed Appian Way, about two miles from the city. Here was one of the cemeteries of Rome, which was later used by the Christianas as sorgt places of worship. These Catacombs are thirty-two acres in extent, twelve miles in length, and in three stories, the first of which is forty feet underground. Almost all of the tombs were rified by the Vandals. The place is now under the care of the Trappist monks. One of them, with his shaven crown, long, flowing robe and sands, took us below after giving each of the party a candle. Unfortunately, I saw little of the place, as I chose the English-speaking group in which we were several American ladies, who asked to be taken out after they had seen but a small part of it. "Oh," said one of them to the guide, "weed better go out now. I guess the rest of the place is just like this." Visiting those historic places is like taking medicine to many of the American tourists, who'd much rather be in a Montmartre cabaret, but come because when they return home they will be able to say they had visited these places. For the early Christians it was quite a victory—from hunted beings in these gloomy vaults to the rulership of Home Peter's vision of a world empire ruled by Christianity had won. 'As many of the buildings in England have curved on them the name of the king, so here most of the older buildings bear the name of the reigning Popes, who in the earliest stages were as much thought of by the populace as the pastor, of some two by four colored church is now. But these leaders were unusually men of vision and not afraid to die for their cause. The martyried bodies of several of them once laid in these vaults. Well, there were no fat salaries attached to leadership those days.' The Vatican Library is perhaps the largest repository of art treasures in the world, and one walks through what must be miles and miles of rooms so filled with them that it is more difficult to fix one's attention on any one object. Nevertheless one must be arrested by the paintings of Raphael in the rooms that bear his name; the Sifano Chapel, with Michael Angelo's famous painting, "The Last Judgment"; the thousands of books with signatures sent to the Popes from America and all parts of the world, one of which is said to contain the names of 38,000 French persons who declare themselves "ready to suffer and die for the faith," and Nero's bath tub, which is big enough for five persons. Of especial interest to me was the Egyptian Room, with one of the finest collection of Egyptian art and statuary in existence. This reminds me to say that if the busts of certain persons known as Negroes in America were to be made and placed besides some of those of the Caesars in the galleries here, particularly that of Septimius Severus and Caracalla also—well, the influence is obvious. For us far back as one can go in history Europe and Africa have been meeting and mating along these shores. Besides, the noble Roman indies were particularly fond of the Negro gradators and others, as see the famous Blix Stafie of Juvenal, who lived in 89 A.D. My next article will be from Florence, in which I will also say something of Mussolini and of the everyday life of the Italians. SPANISH AND ENGLISH TRANSLATED BY RELIABLE CORRESPONDENT Address: Negro World Office 142 West 130th St., New York, N. Y. Christian, Danish King; Speaks Six Languages CANNES, France, April 4, 1819 Christian of Denmark is one of the richest polygol of all European rulers. He speaks six languages and has a smattering of others. On his visit to the Riviera, therefore, he not only enjoyed the sun but the linguistic opportunities as well. One moving leaving his hotel by automobile, the King was surrounded by bell boys and porters and others, the monarch-speaking French to some, English to others and Danish to his chauffeur. Accompanying the royal party was a Spanish with whom His Majesty conversed, and later they met in party from Switzerland, all of whom spoke German. The King visits the casino every evening or so, but he does not gamble. Chinese Alone Immune To Stuttering The Chinese alone among cultured peoples are immune to stammering, according to Benjamin N. Bogue, of Indianapolis, Ind., president of an institute for stammering. He further says: "In ordinary conversation these Chinese use 4,000 monosyllabic words and employ four sets of tones besides to increase their vocabulary. In English speech the average man uses less than, 2,000 words with no tonal changes. Stuttering is peculiarly, the malady of culture, unknown to savage tribes and races. American Indians are entirely immune to both stuttering and stammering." You may talk about the Negro. You may name his faults-infinite. But you cannot, turn a wheel. That a Negro isn't in it. You may block his civil rights. You may say you are "again it"; But before you turn around, Some sharp Negro will be in it. You may build your Chinese walls, You may plan for every minute; But with all your wily schemes, Some few Negroes will be in it. You may form your "Lily Whites," God may kill your bear and skin it. When the pie is passed around, Some shrewd Negro will be in it. So it high, or be it low. From the cook pot to the senate. There is not a place on earth. That a Negro isn't in it. So my friend, just stop your folly, Draw this thought out note, and spin it. God intends from first to last, That a Negro must be in it. You may try the plan of Pharaoh, Kill the race out, to try thin it. When the census rolls are called, Negroes always will be in it. If you keep on with your lynching, Take this thought down now and pin it. When you reach the shore of shores, You will find some Negroes in it. You may reach the land souls, If perchance you ever should win it; Don't emigrate, my brother, When you see some Negroes in it. J. C. McAdams, East Tennessee News. STOP WORRY!

Success To the Editor of The Negro World March 31, 1927, will never be forgotten by the faithful few of Preston, Oriente, Cuba. We traveled for several miles to hear and see a most distinguished visitor from the high executive council, in the person of Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis fourth assistant president general, explain the aims and object of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League in a most forceful way. The gathering cheered to the top of their voices at the mentioning or calling of the name of the Hum, Marcus Carves. One could see the spirit that finds its way deep into the hearts of the Negro We traveled from Preston on railroad passenger cars, by foot and by automobile to and from Queto Jackson. The women among us numbering, eight, were exceptionally brave. In the dark of the night they go faithfully on. This is enough to prove to the world that the keeping of our leaders, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, in an Attenta pontictiary is useless, as there are many other Garveys at large. I am the father of three young Garveys who, as he is termed dangerous, may be more dangerous than the old Garvey. So in the name of God, the Father of all mankind and justice, we the new Negroes, especially these three eight Negro women who traveled with us so gallantly to the late hour of 25 o'clock, are praying for the early release of our most esteemed leader, the God-sent man of the hour. To the present administration let me extend by heartful thanks and congratulations for the noble work you have accomplished in the past and that you are now engaged in. My appeal to work is to carry on until we have succeeded in giving to the world a united Afro-empire on which the sun will never set. B. HYTTON Preston, Oriente, Cuba Garvey Has Stolen Only Race Ignorance As it was in the days of Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States of America, when four million slaves were set free by one stroke of his pen, so could it be in the days of President Coolidge, whose opportunities exceed those of the sixteenth President, when millions of people are mental slaves and their born leader, Marcus Garvey, is locked up in a cold prison cell for no-good reason. The wicked have never in the history of the world believed in a righteous cause, and never will. The only crime Mr. Garvey committed against them, he store ignorance from his own people and caused them to awake from their long sleep to race consciousness. Who will say that Garvey did wrong? None but the wicked. Mr. Garvey heard the cry "America for the American people," "Europe, for the European people," "Asia for the Asiatics," and he said "Africa for the African people, at home and abroad." Now, if Mr. Garvey was wrong, then the others were wrong. Marcus Garvey advocates right, righteousness and justice to all people, whether they be white, yellow, brown or black. He is asking at this time a square deal for his people, a chance MAGIC SHAVE WITHOUT A RAZOR Jut put on Magic Shaving Powder and then the hair will wash off oilicker and closer than any razor shaves you.

The worked only President Lincoln by his contribution to civilization, erected for himself a living monument upon which the sun will never set. At this hour, while the nations are in a state of greatest and facing from every angle one of the bloodiest wars that the world hung ever known. President Coolidge has his opportunity to do more than Lincoln and save the world from being drowned in blood. Mr Garvey is now on the third year of the five-year sentence imposed upon him by the Federal Court of New York for misuse of the bail. That end of justice has been well served. Mr Garvey will certainly do more good out of prison than in prison. He is needed at his post of duty to help make the world a safe place in which to live. Everybody knows the trap to inmission him was set by a gang of wounded Negroes. They resorted to this plan, after all others had failed, to get rid of the man who was opposing their wickedness. This group of Negro traitors are as wicked as Judas: who betrayed Christ, and the wicked Haman, who wanted all the Jews destroyed. They, too, should hang fifty cubits high. They are as dangerous to the peace and harmony of the government as an eating cancer at the heart. Marcus Garvey should be set, tree and hidden godspied to preach the gospel of his conviction. Mr Garvey is in the class with the best of all faces and has, established, for himself a lifelong monument upon which the sun will never set. A righteous cause cannot die. J. BAXBER LOGAN. Houston, Oklahoma Negro Equal to Any, Other Race To the Editor of The Negro World: After following closely the gross atrocities and disadvantages which had been and are being met out to the Universal Negro Improvement Association by the Negro himself, the actions have taken me quite back to 1927 years ago when Christ's mighty works started to demand the attention of the public, and the people asked, "Can any good come, out of Nazareth?" Let me ask the men and women of my race "Can any good come out of the U. N. I. A.?" After making a retrospective acquisition of the leading governments of today, we find some of them coming from a stage where they used to live in caves and eat worms, etc, and were not good enough to be slaves; but today, what do we see? We see them with their British Empire and their Union Jack. We see them with their great United States of America and their Stars and Stripes. We see them with their French government and their tri-colors. If these achievements by these peoples are worth classing among the good things, then we have to admit that good things can come out of the U. N. I. A. for the Universal Negro Improvement Association is pursuing the same course which they have pursued. At the same time don't forget that we as women must endear, to the best of our ability, to uphold and improve the integrity and respectability of the race. What others have done we can do also MRS. E Z ISLAND Moron, Cuba. (Est. 1901-25 years of satisfaction). THE,NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1927. BY ENGLISHMAN unity of the human race, and understand that true nationalism is not any more incompatible with nor antagonistic to true internationalism than is true family life antagonistic to the best interests of the state. Navy, rather must one say that nationalism is the handmaid of internationalism, just as true family life is the handmaid of good social order in the state. Stability and progress can never be secured if we rule our lives by compromise and decide questions on the grounds of expediency. Just as self-interest is an impossible code in true family life, so is it equally impossible in the family of nations. It always acts as a solvency upon much that is good and inevitably leads to conflict. The nations must learn to co-operate one with the other and thus understand that it is a fundamental truth that both sides profit in any business agreement honestly carried out on this basis. international political antagonism will only disappear when politicians come to realize that man everywhere is made in the image of God, and although this image is sometimes very much obscured by his depravity and degradation—though be it remembered it can never be obscured by the color of the skin—he can no more afford to neglect these infant and deprived members of the family of man than England could afford to neglect leer masses. This country stands where she does today because, led by the Church of Christ, she attended to the needs of the common people and thus endeavored to build "Jerusalem in England's green and pleasant land." Humanity will not come into its own until this same principle is adopted in international politics and purpose, and is directed to build the "City of God." The next factor in this race problem to which I would draw your attention is the economic factor. This is the instigator of most, if not all, our wars. Europe in the threes-of economic difficulties entered upon a war in which she not only siew ten millions of the flower-of her Continent, but also considerably aggravated those difficulties. Oh! The madness of it. South Africans obsessed by the fear of an economic avalanche from the natives in whose counties they find themselves, have adopted measures which have not only put them in a much worse position owing to the creation of an ever Growing Army of "Poor Whites" but which are also calculated to aim The Irresistible Perfumes Desire d'Amour "LOVES DESIRE" This invasively alluring perineal fits perfectly.

"No strong office of national security and prosperity can possibly be built upon such 'foundations'." On February 5th abe "Tyrpes" closed its leading article, which was entitled "The Greatest African Problem," with this sentence "Fortunately these have been signs this week that the discussion will be not only responsible but lightened enough to know that mere fears for the white man's future make bad counselors." America, "which started with its magnificent charter of liberty—the Declaration of Independence—in which she laid down the following fundamental axiom: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created, equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain finite rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." America, I say, in spite of this, has hown out for herself a problem of no mean dimensions by deliberately closing her eyes to the implications of her own charter and thus attempting to stop the processes of nature and to keep down the black man whom she herself placed there. Forgetting to quote Booker, T. Washington, "That you cannot keep a black man down in the gutter without keeping yourself there also." "Can the African Believe You?" Do it some travesty of, or is it the true family, apart with all the love and sacrifice it entails that we exhibit toward the infant races of the world? Can the African really believe that you regard him as a brother when he comes into your midst? What is to be your attitude toward the Chinese literati, the educated Hindu, the highly civilized Japanese? Are the European Nations forever to face one another in a state of war? Will they never realize that the Assyrian is destined to fall "by no hero's sword" and to be "destroyed but by no mortal blade?" How are we to treat the weak members of this family of nations? Is it our intention to rule them with the edge of the sword or do we purpose to govern them in the spirit of Jesus Christ?

Stanley Jones in his excellent little book proves that Christianity came to Britain with the sword. Surely this is no reason why in this twentieth century we should cleave to a world but principle. Especially when we realize that it is a matter of history that the "ruling race rules itself out." The "wolf is extinct in western Europe but the lamb reigns supreme." Our strength is not to be found in horses and chariots but in spirit of the living God If, therefore, we are convinced that the method of force is not right what has the Church of Christ to say? Has she lost her authority and her sense of responsibility or is she merely playing the game? The line of heat resistance always makes men crooked, just as it makes rivers crooked. Are we in the position of the devout Calvantian who, when riding out in his carriage came into a thunder storm and the lightning struck the carriage, but he thanked God that it only struck the box seat? Is the color bar or the social bar in the Church of Christ tenebul position? Is such a Church really worshiping her Lord Who Himself was a nug of color and had not where to lay His head. I have been present where high church officials show that, they are still under the bondage of false ideas by referring to child races with disparaging epithets. It is a fundamental that we yield to this characteristically Christian conception of the humanity in all races—all men are created in the image of God, all men are sons of God. Did Mohammed in his recounting n of the equality of all worshippers catch more of the spirit of Christ than the Christian, Church of our day? The Church of Christ must become so sure of God that she is afraid of nothing and shrinks from pothling. She must be prepared to yield to every just and righteous claim.
