TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTERS Release of Marcus Garvey Seen Near As Delegation Has Heart-to-Heart Talk With Attorney General Sargent A week ago a delegation of nineteen Negroes, men and women, headed by Hon. Frederick A. Toote, Acting President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, sat in an office of the Department of Justice, Washington, D. C., and for over two hours presented to Hon. John R. Sargent, Attorney General of the United States the claims of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, Founder and President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, to executive clemency. The delegation, we learn, found Mr. Sargent in a very patient, affable and serious mood, disposed to weigh very carefully the reasons given by the various spokesmen for the immediate release from prison of a man whose incarceration has provoked more agitation and worldwide chagrin than that of any Negro within living memory. It is safe to say that not since the imprisonment of the late Eugene Debs, Socialist leader, has such a storm of protest arisen from the masses aga...t the legalized punishment and persecution of a single man. But the appeals and protests of the people in the case of Debs hardly approached in intensity and fervor and volume those that the confinement of Marcus Garvey has evoked. Then, the war hysteria distorted many men's judgment, and it was not difficult for the authorities to ingratiate themselves with thousands by an attitude of unyielding severity toward Debs. Today, in the case of Marcus Garvey, only a negligible minority of the citizenry of the United States would be unwilling to concede that the victim should be set free without further delay. Frankly Mr. Sargent informed the delegation that there were two arguments that should be elaborated in Mr. Garvey's behalf: One, the condition of his health; the other, the absence of any intention to defraud. With this guidance from Mr. Sargent the delegation could not but make a profound impression on the first law officer of the Federal Government. It would be a very ingenious soul, indeed, who could convince that Marcus Garvey, who when he entered Atlanta Penitentiary had a bank account of less than fifty dollars, could have sought to enrich himself at the expense of his followers. What Marcus Garvey set out to do he did—revolutionize Negro thought—and it would be as rational to believe that Lindbergh in the midst of his epochal hop to Paris was thinking of dollar-grabbing as that Marcus Garvey, sowing the seeds of Negro nationhood with lavish hand, had a single thought for personal gain. As to the great leader's health, it gives his friends and followers real cause for alarm. As he went about his deathless task, he never spared himself, and a splendid constitution was seriously undermined. In prison his ills were aggravated, and the prison doctors can furnish the best evidence. The case of Marcus Garvey cries aloud to high heaven for redress. His immediate release is desired by millions, and the common canons of justice which should suffice to free him have failed. Marcus Garvey, gentlemen, is in poor health; his certainly was not the intention to defraud a single person. For these reasons, then, if for none other, he should be returned to his race without delay.—The Editors. e Tr WRSSECEMATIO WS. AFRICA (Prem the Johannesburg Stor) ‘Tee Lamoratity bill, introduced bs the Mintgter of Justice last sesaion amd reintroduced this session Witt qeertain amendmenis, has been Ap: peered of at length by both Hounes of ‘Perament. ‘The title of the dill tx “to pronibl Melt carnal intercourse between Hurd yoane and natives, and other acts tn retstion thereto"; and in view of the ‘vina) importance of the subject, with regera 16 the future of this country, thee passing of the bill may strike the eeeva! observer ae an unmitigated Siepsing. Before giving our whole- hearted approval, however. it may de ‘well te consider the measure in some- Wig greeter eta eenel of the bill ls contained in seationa 1 te 4 which read as fellows: (2) Amy Buropean mate who has Jilictt carmel intercourse with a native femaje. an@ any native male who has Melt carnal intercourse with a Furo- pean female . . . shail he guilty of a eftenes, and liable on conviction to imoriovament for 2 period not exceed- fag five years.

Of these, constfter section 7, which detaltn an interpragation of the term “native” and “iilleit carnal in- tercourse.” By the latter is meant “carnal intercourse other than be- ‘tween husband and wifé"; which ob- viously will elther make crimials of the parties concerned, or, what {a more Mkely, enforce marriage und a legal tle on @ union between x European and & native—thun legalizing = nint: which, st would seem, should be the avowed Intention of the Bill to render Mtlege!. Again, the term, “native” ts Riven to ween “any membér of ans aboriginal race or tribe of Africa," and thin defl- Ritely exeludes Cape Colored, Malaya and Indians. If tho achlevement of raot-Durity fs t0 be taken an the pur- yous of the Bill—and what other pur- pooe can the Minister entertain?— why fnatet upon these five diatine- tions? Why-not group the white races on one hand, the non-whites upon the Ativer, and Allow no Intercourse be- twesa them? ‘Tre ambisulty: of these terme pro- vides m gtorlousiy cary weapon for blackmail and the iodsing of faire ac- custions against perfectly Innocent people.

FP. & ADAMS, Professor ef Cisssical Languages, Cape Town, South Africa A study of the history of the race problem in Africa and America and the various organized efforts making for its solution reveals & condition of efficiency in the handling of the issue that is little short of criminal. The narrowness, the lack of vision, and the sycophancy of our leadership have been like a veritable millstone about the neck of the race. Men have complained, and justly so, of the difficulty: | of the task of holding the rank and file together. The matter needs to be turned about. The rank and file ought to issue an ultimatura, to the littie leaders to come together and work together for the com mon good. There's an old proverb which runs: “Like priest, like people.” There is a relation between the two which bears the ear- mark of casualty. The spirit of discord among the masses is the larger reflection of the same germinal spirit among the leaders. Each little giant has tried to corral his little following and to isolate them like so many bacteria for purposes of special culture in the laboratory while the heavy tread of distressed mortals passing by without the door where life abides disturbs the quiet of the sanctuary and evokes the censure and contempt of the elect within the portals. Indeed the condition of the race has been very much like unto a condition described by Jesus when he spoke of blind leaders of blind followers, all falling Tt headlong into the ditch.

FRED. A. TOOTE GIVES ACCOUNT OF INTERVIEW WITH ATTORNEY GENERAL IN BEHALF OF MARCUS GARVEY Speaking for Millions He Made Comprehensive Plea for Imprisoned Leader Before Official, Who Was the Essence of Cordiality and Candor BELIEVES LEADER WILL SOON BE SET FREE Says Plea Was Confined to Arguments That Mr. Garvey Had No Intention to Defraud and That His Poor Health Warranted Immediate Action—Great Leader Was in West Indies When Plot Against Him Was Hatched NEW YORK, Liberty Hall, Sunday Night, June 26.—The delegation that journeyed to Washington, D. C., on Monday, the 19th inst., to voice to the Attorney General of the United States the request of the people that Marcus Garvey be released immediately from prison, made its report to the people of New York on Friday evening, June 24, and Liberty Hall was crowded on that occasion, but in spite of this every available chair was filled tonight on the occasion of the weekly mass meeting, hundreds of non-members having swelled the throng come to hear news of the prospect of their leader's release. Hon. Fred. A. Toote, acting President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, occupied the chair, and supporting him on the platform were Hon. F. Levi Lord, Chancellor; Hon. M. L. T. De Mena, Asst. International Organizer, and a number of out-of-town visitors. After the usual exercises by the auxiliaries an excellent concert program was rendered, after which the speech-making followed. Among those who addressed the meeting were Mr. T. Thomas Fortune, editor of The Negro World; Hon. F. Levi Lord, Chancellor; Madame M. L. L. T. De Mena, Asst. International Organizer, and Mr. F. Miller, while the chairman, Hon. Fred. A. Toote, made the speech of the evening, giving some highly interesting details of the Washington conference. Notice. All copy for insertion in the issue of The Negro World of July 9, must positively be in the office not later than THURSDAY, JUNE 30, to insure publication. On account of the holiday on July 4, the paper will go to press early. Advertisers and contributors are urged to heed this request and avoid disappointment. MR. FORTUNE'S ADDRESS Mr. Fortune reminded his hearers that The Negro World was the mouthpiece of the organization and, first and foremost, deserved their support. He paid a tribute to the editors and business staff of The Negro World, who, though not in the limelight, were doing a splendid work with commendable earnestness and loyalty. He was glad to note the splendid manner in which the membership was standing loyally and firmly by the principles of the organization, as laid down by Mr. Garvey, and said that, speaking for himself, he would always see to it that The Negro World gave expression to the hopes and desires, thought and aspirations of millions of the race who had set their hearts on nationhood for this great race to which he had the honor to belong. MR. LORD AND MRS. DE MENA GIVE WORDS OF CHEER Hon. F. Levi Lord and Madame De Mena. In brief addresses, both referred to their visit to Washington and their firm belief that the conference would be fruitful of good results. Mr. Lord said he could not too often repeat that for him there was only one organization in the world, and that was the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and he felt it a signal honor that he should be among those who were privileged to go to Washington to ask for justice for the founder of that organization. Madame De Mena took the opportunity to remind her hearers of the magnitude of the task in which they were engaged. With words of good cheer and encouragement she bade the membership see to it that the flag, the red, the Black and the Green, was kept proudly floating in the breeze. She had given her all for the organization, she was in it to stay, come fair weather or foul, and she had vowed that Marcus Garvey, when he emerged from prison, as he must some day, and as she hoped and believed he would soon, have no cause to regret that he had reposed confidence in her. HON. F. A. TOOTE AT WASHINGTON Hon. Fred. A. Toote amid rapt silence gave an account of the committee's reception by Hon. John Sargent and the argument advanced for the immediate release of the great leader. Nineteen persons, he said, comprised the delegation: Hon. F. Levi Lord, Hon. Madame M. L. T. De Mena, Hon. J. A. Craigen, Hon. Samuel A. Haynes, Hon. William Ware, Mr. Charles Green, Mr. E. B. Knox, Mrs. Hannah Nichols, Prof. S. R. Williams, Hon. S. V. Robertson, Hon. Fred E. Johnson, Rev. W. Pickens, Mrs. Laura Johnson, Capt. M. Branch, Memsa. E. Stewart, D. Truesdell, C. Bedia, C. Braithwaite and himself. After the Attorney General had indicated that he would like to hear argument on the question of the great chiefstain's sincerity and his health, Mr. Toote said he launched into a resume of the leader's activities in connection with the organization which Mr. Carvay had founded, striving to show that when Marcus Carvay labored for the U. N. L. A. he was laboring for his best love—the cause of African redemption. If Marcus Garvey had desired to advance himself in a monetary way, he would not have had to try to do so via the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but only those near to him knew the sacrifices he had made, spurring every offer which would make for his self-aggrandisement. The very charge on which he was tried and sent to jail was the result of plotting in his absence in the West Indies on the Association's business, and it was worthy of note that the very people who were scheming against him tried to prevent his reentry into the United States, and when this failed through the intervention of Secretary Hughes, they brought to fruition their plans for his discomfiture. As to his health, he was suffering from asthma besides other ailments which had come to plague him in confinement, and he opined that the world had nothing whatever to gain, but, on the contrary, very much to lose, in every respect. If this man, for whom they were pleading at that time, came out of Atlanta permanently broken in health. The speaker informed his hearers that several speakers followed him, all in their own way in telling fashion seeking to convince their distinguished auditor of the great and unchangeable respect in which Marcus Garvey is held by Negroes the world over, and of their burning desire for his release without deportation. The conference wound up with the Attorney General promising the delegation that he would give their representations in Marcus Garvey's behalf his careful consideration. A Hungarian Knew What Home Is BUDAPEST. Hungary.-Jail promised such a relief from his wife's company that Andreas Kurdi passed himself off as his son, served three months in prison and asked to stay longer. When the authorities discovered that Kurdi had fooled them the judge who sentenced him for his son's offense called him to account before releasing him. "The penalty I paid was a heavy one," the father explained in court, "but it was worth while. For years I have been puzzling my head to determine how I might escape for a little while from the terrible place my wife has made of my home for twenty-five years. In prison I had a fine rest, and I would gladly spend another three months there rather than return home. Butterflies in Clouds On Mount Shasta REDDING, Cal., June 27.—Butterflies, described as "thick as the flakes in a blinding snowstorm," obscured the view at the base and on the lower slopes of Mount Shasta yesterday. One tourist reported that the butterflies were so thick he couldn't see two feet ahead. Rabbi Jerome M. Lawn responded to Dr. Marry Emerson Feodick's recent talk on Zionism in his sermon at the Both Israel Temple of Washington Meighs yesterday. "My reason for answering Dr. Feodick's recent utterance on Zionism is because I fear that many Jews, whose support is absolutely essential for Palestine will be frightened and hence hold back their financial and moral assistance," said Rabbi Lawn. "Dr. Feodick said Zionism is heading for a supreme tragedy unless some of its leaders in Palestine turn away from their extreme nationalism." "I am afraid that Dr. Foodick's views are merely his impressions, gathered on his recent trip to Palestine, and not most accurate. Let him understand that the Jews are here dealing with their Jewish national home, Palestine. He has set up a theory that nationalistic Zionism is a danger to the Jews of the future. Does he not know that the Jewish religion cannot be separated from Jewish nationalism, and that the national Jewish movement is founded entirely on the Jewish religion itself." Muskrat States Most Important for Industry SYRACUSE.—The muskrat has become king of fur animals in New York, according to a bulletin published by the Roosevelt Wild Life Forest Experiment Station at the New York State College of Forestry, Syracuse University. Dr. Charles E. Johnson, who has made a study of muskrat conditions in New York says, "The muskrat is, all things considered, the most important species of fur-bearing animal in the State at the present time. Its commercial standing makes it an important source of income to a large number of farmers and others engaged in trapping. "Fordize" Now a Word In Russian Language MOSCOW.—Henry Ford has inconspicuously made his way into the Russian language. "To Fordize" has become a recognized new word, meaning to organize efficiently. As many factories as possible are being "Fordized" with all speed by arranging the machinery to speed production and reduce manual labor, installing more automatic machinery and replanning the entire industrial organisation to avoid loss of motion and repetition of effort. Many Russians dream of the future when their country will be completely "Fordized." Our Physicians WASHINGTON. June 23. — The United States has more doctors than any other country, with 133 physicians to every 100,000 persons, as compared with 92 per 100,000 in Great Britain; 51 in Germany, and 55 in France. The state of Tennessee ranks in first place in the number of colored physicians, followed in the order named by Illinois, Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Arkansas and the District of Columbia. In the United States as a whole there is one colored physician to every 2,055 colored persons. C. P. B. French Chemists Make Gasoline from Lignite Two French chemists, Prudhomme and Houdry announce that they have made gasoline from lignite in commercial quantities. Their process of distillation, reports "Popular Science Monthly," is expected eventually to yield a quarter of a billion gallons of gasoline a year—half the gasoline consumption of France—from twenty million tons of lignite. Enough lignite, sometimes called brown coal, exists in France, experts estimate, to supply that country with oil and fuel for at least a century and a half. Abundant deposits, now unused, occur in the south and west of the United States. Lord Hugh Cecil Favors OBEY IN Marriage Service SURBITON, Surrey, June 20.—The old formula for the marriage service has at least one supporter. He is Lord Hugh Cecil, members of the British Privy Council. Speaking of the revised Prayer Book here, Cecil confessed to a liking for the word "obey" in the marriage service. "I am all for the old marriage vow," he said. "I am not very likely to get married, but if I did I would insist on the old service." Dried Pumpkin Seeks Gilt Derby's Scalp LONDON, June 18.—America, which introduced the gilt derby as a musical instrument, is about to have presented to its jazz cacophony the dried pumpkin. An East Indian musician, Duleep Kumar Roy, is poising here for a start to the States with his musical pumpkin. known as the Dil-Ruba. He plays Indian "jazz" on it. 400,000 Agriculture Year Books Printed WASHINGTON, June 21.—Practically every aspect of agricultural science and practice is covered in the year book of agriculture for 1932, of which 400,000 copies printed under Congregational appropriation are now being distributed. The Department of Agriculture has purchased 20,000 copies for distribution. Senators and Representatives have been allocated 400 copies each and the remainder will be sold by the superintendent of documents.

Ministers' Hampton Meet Draws Record Attendance Hampton Institute, Va., June 23- The fourteenth annual ministers' conference at Hampton Institute closed recently with a record attendance of 359 ministers from eleven different denominations. This conference, unique in that it is organised to afford ministers an opportunity to study and discuss common problems rather than a meeting on the basis of denomination has been addressed by nationally known speakers. Rev. Galus Glenn Atkins, professor of homilies in Auburn Theological Seminary, Auburn, N. Y., gave a series of lectures on preaching, his practical message meeting with enthusiastic response from the conference. Dr. William Derry, pastor of St. John's Congregational Church, Springfield, Mass., in his account of his institutional church, stressed the importance of studying the community in which this type of work is to be done and basing the work on the needs. Rev. Howard Thurman, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Oberlin, Ohio, in four lectures on the problems of youth gave to the conference youth's point of view on vital questions of the day. Other speakers were Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, director of music at Hampton Institute, who spoke on the music in the church; Professor Kemper Fullerton, of Oberlin, Ohio, who discussed the "Problem of National Suffering As Viewed by a Prophet of Israel," and Rev. C. Tobina, secretary of the National Council, of the Young Men's Christian Association, New York. The annual sermon by a member was delivered by Rev. Charles A. Tindley, pastor of East Calvary Methodist Episcopal Church, Philadelphia, Pa. Brazilian Republic Growing Rapidly RIO JANEIRO (P. P.).—The growth of the Brazilian Republic in the thirty-eight years since the end of the monarchy was outlined by President Washington Luís in his message to the twelfth Congress, showing that the country has made remarkable progress in the short time that democratic government has been in power. In 1888, the last year of the monarchy, Brazil's population was 13,785. 872, divided among 348 cities and 916 municipalities. Today the population is 36,870,972, cities number 800 and municipalities, 1,407. There were 8,157 schools in 1888, compared with 25,000 today, with 258,000 students compared to the present enrollment of 1,455,000. Newspapers numbered 533 then and 2,376 now. The contract for the construction of the port of Santos had just been let when the monarchical regime ended. Brazil now has eight modernly equipped ports. Exports during 1888 total 597,562 tons, valued at £21,714,000 sterling. Last year's exports aggregated 1,852,642 tons, valued at £93,794,000 sterling. The value of imports increased from £19,724,000 to £79,272,000. Yellow fever, a menace in the early days of the republic, has been completely stamped out. The death rate in Brazil has been lowered from between 27 and 29 per thousand in 1903, to between 15.6 and 17.0 in 1926. "Seven Seas" Refers To All Waters The expression "the seven seas" refers to no particular bodies of water, but to all. It was commonly used among the Irish and Indian Aryans from the earliest mythological traditions of these races, says the Detroit News. The original "seven seas" of the Zoroastrian Persians are the streams forming the River Orus, and the earliest geographical "seven seas" of the Hindus are the so-called "five waters" of the Punjab, with or without the addition of the Indus, Jumna and Ganges rivers. In India as in the East generally, the number seven, through the microneedness attached to it, came to mean also "all," "whole," "completa," perfection." So "seven seas" in the common parlance of the Hindus means "all the seas," or "the whole world of waters." In France, so elsewhere, the people of the country are migrating to town.

Titian Lived to 99 Years And Painted Almost 75 In many respects the career of Titian, the Venetian artist, is without parallel in the history of art. The span of his productive life is unprecedented. He lived to be ninety-nine years old, and painted steadily for nearly seventy-five years. This noted painter apparently believed that no amount of inspiration or intuitive genius is a substitute for painstaking labor, says the Kansas City Star. A contemporary wrote of him: "He laid in his pictures with a mass of colors which served him as a groundwork for what he wanted to express. I myself have seen such powerful strokes swept in by him with solid pigment, sometimes with pure terra rossa ('red ocher') and this served him for the half-tones—sometimes with a brush full of white lead, and with the same brush dipped in red, black or yellow he picked out the lights. In four strokes he had sketched in a remarkably beautiful figure. Then he laid the picture against the wall and left it there, often for several months, without looking at it again, and when he wanted to work at it he examined it very critically as if it were his mortal enemy, in order to discover any possible faults. Then he took away a prominence here, set an arm straight there, and got a foot in the right position. So by degrees he brought his figures to the most perfect symmetry, and then he proceeded to do the same with the next picture. Pleads for Work For 100.000 Blind ATLANTIC CITY. June 21—Employment for the 100,000 blind citizens of the United States was urged here by Robert B. Irwin of Montclair in an address yesterday before the Association of American Workers for the Blind, of which he is president, Irwin himself is blind. In his address he asked that industrial concerns of the nation hire blind workmen wherever they prove themselves capable of carrying on the work. He pointed out that in Europe, particularly in Germany employers are compelled to hire sightless persons who prove their capability. New Jersey has more than two thousand blind persons, according to Mr. Irwin. Trade Scholarship For a Young Man in New York School To the Editor of The Negro World: Dear Sir-We have just received an announcement from the General Society of Mechanica and Tradesmen of the City of New York offering, to any young man who would like to avail himself of the opportunity, a scholarship at the New York Trade School.

Germany May Get Voice On Mandate Commission GENEVA, Switzerland, June 27. There are indications that the League of Nations Mandate Commission, which began its sessions today, will vote to give Germany a seat on the commission. If given a seat Germany will have a voice in the administration of her former colonies. It is understood that the League Council and Assembly will approve the measure, which is regarded as the first actual move by Germany toward regaining some one of her lost colonies. 15 Nations Have Ratified Child Labor Treaty The international treaty which was adopted by the Washington conference in 1919 fixing the minimum age for employment in industry at 14 reversed, the servants receiving the first kisses, says the Indianapolis News.

Astronomer Says World Will Cease to Rotate LONDON, June 23.—The earth eventually will cease to rotate and will become a stationary object, one-half with sunshine and the other half with eternal darkness, according to Dr. Andrew Crommelin, formerly assistant astronomer at the Royal Observatory, who recently retired after thirty-six years of service. Dr. Crommelin said here recently that at the present rate of "slowing" in its rotation the earth would cease to rotate in some few millions of years." He attributed the "slowing" to friction of the tides. "The world is safe enough. However," he said, "no far as everyone who is on it now is concerned." Referring to life on other planets and heavenly bodies, Dr. Crommelin said, so far as science knows at the present, there is no life on the moon. "Life on the moon," he said, "would be impossible unless there is some animal there that can live without air and heat." Wins $25,000 for Heart in Wreng Place ATLANTIC CITY, June 21.—A jury in the Supreme Court here yesterday awarded $25,000 to Victor F. Thompson of Pleasantville who alleged on the stand that his heart was thrown from the left side to the right side of his body last fall in an automobile accident. The defendants in the action were the West Jersey & Sea Shore Railroad Company and the Atlantic City & Shore Railroad Company. Thompson sued them for $80,000. Dr. James Moyan of Philadelphia corroborated Thompson's testimony. to forget all about it. It is not a good way. Procrastination is said to be the thief of time, and it is also the thief of opportunity. What is worth doing is worth doing at the psychological moment. A little later it may not be convenient or possible to do it at all. The suggestion is as good and serviceable today as it was forty years ago; perhaps more so. Why? Let us see. The Spanish language is one of the standard languages, ranking among the first. The Spanish people inhabit 5,000,000 square miles, with quite 100,000,000 people. In the Western Hemisphere all of the people except those of the United States, Canada and the British West Indies, speak the Spanish language. Chile, Argentina and Brazil are great States in the growing, with enormous territory and inestimable resources of soil, mine and forest, and are growing by leaps and bounds. The Spanish population is a cross of Spanish, Indian and Negro, and race prejudice is vastly less in evidence than in the United States and Canada. This is shown in the fact that the Negro in Spanish America enjoys a larger freedom in the administration of his government, in its labor, industry, trade and finance than he does in English speaking America. We do not hear a great deal about the Spanish American and his status, because he is rated by his Spanish nationality and not by his race and color. To illustrate: An American salesman found himself in Buenos Ayres. He had a letter of introduction to one of the largest merchants in the country. When he went into the luxurious private offices, led by an obliging clerk, he found a very black man stirring about the offices whom he took to be a messenger. He engaged him in conversation, and they had it hot and heavy about the freedom which the Negro enjoyed in Brazil, which the American was not slow to declare would not be tolerated in his country, and which he was free to say he did not like at all. When the merchant tired of the controversy, having got inside the American's prejudiced head, he began to busy himself about the office. The American waited for some time, and growing impatient, asked gruffly when the boss was expected. He was asked if he had an appointment with him and he said he had not, but that he had a letter of introduction. The merchant asked him for it, and after carefully reading it, said: "I am the boss here. What can I do for you?" The American was so upset that he could hardly state his business. When he had done so he was told politely by the black merchant that he did not carry any line of goods that he cared to purchase. But that salesman did not make the like mistake a second time, and he had plenty of opportunity to do so before he left Brazil. Race prejudice is always a dangerous and often a costly thing. New York City has a very large Spanish-speaking Negro group. They enjoy exceptional freedom and opportunity, in travel and accommodation, and in employments as bookkeepers, stenographers and typewriters, and many occupy the position of managers in big importing houses. The Spanish-speaking Negro in New York is a very interesting and useful person. He finds it easier to "get by" than the American Negro who does not speak Spanish, but he is very social and a good mixer with the American Negro and is teaching him many useful things he was ignorant of. More Negroes should master the Spanish language. It will be helpful to them in many ways to do so. There are plenty of opportunities to learn it, if one has the disposition to do so, and it can be done in the leisure time usually squandered in some less useful way. THE INDIAN CHIEF AND "THE GREAT WHITE FATHER" THE white man is gradually pushing the red man off the map of the United States. He has little left which he can call his own, and as soon as oil or gold is found on what he has remaining the white man rushes in and drives him out. Chief Strong Talk of the Sioux tribe, spoke to the editorial association, three hundred strong, at the Cadron, Nebraska, State Park, in his own tongue, which was translated for the editors. His oration was short and sounds like the lamentation of a dying race. The readers of The Negro World will find much food for thought in what Chief Strong Talk said, because the whites are driving the Negro off Africa, in his own land, when diamonds and gold and rubber are the stakes, as they have driven the red man of the Americas, off the map. And the following is what the orator of the Sioux tribe said: "Away to the North is a country that once belonged to us. It was rich country to my people because there was game and fish for food and animals of different kinds to provide us material for our wigwams and clothes. We cared not for the yellow stuff in the hills except for ornaments and little of it we used. The Great Spirit had given us all we cared for and in the wild spots we lived and were happy. "One day there came a man with a pick and shovel. He dug up gold and when the news was sent back toward the rising sun there came hundreds of other white men with picks and shovels. After a while they said they would pay us for our land and homes, but almost all we got was promises. They gave us land where there was little game, no fish and no protection from the winter storms. Now we have little of that land left and soon we shall have no place to call our own. We must camp here and there as we may. "White men are too busy getting more gold and the White Father at Washington, who is now playing on the grounds where we once dwelt, does not speak for us. If there is no one to speak for us and the writers who are here will not write for us, then what can we do but talk as I am talking today? And only my people understand." Could there be anything sadder than this wail of the Sioux Chief, speaking for the red man who has been destroyed in his own land! No; the white editors to whom he spoke, and the White Father at Washington, do not speak for the red man. Do they speak for black persons who are their fellow citizens? The Negro people should understand that what has happened to the red man in the Americas and the Islands of the Seas, threatens the black man of Africa. The white man is overrunning Africa, which he has staked off to suit himself and his interests, and he will drive out the black man if he does not wake up to the fact of his danger and labor to prevent it. The Universal Negro Improvement Association points the way to save Africa for the Africans, and the Africans in Africa have been roused to their danger and are laboring to save themselves and their country. The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR A PARDON FOR MR. GARVEY A DELEGATION of citizens, representing several organizations, headed by Hon. Fred A. Toote, Acting President, General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, had a conference by appointment with Attorney-General Sargent, at Washington, Monday of last week. They came out of the conference more encouraged than at any time since his incarceration, that a disposition to favor Mr. Garvey with a pardon had developed. A fine disposition to consider the case was shown by the attorney-general. The case was presented in a modest but plainly worded petition, and the remarks of Mr. Toote and others were intended to re-enforce the plea made in the petition rather than to review the case anew, and it has been stated many times by other delegations which have presented it to the Department of Justice. The plea for executive clemency was not confused in the least by Mr. Toote, who stuck closely to the simply-worded statement of the case as contained in the petition. And this fact apparently had a good effect upon the attorney-general. We believe that the much effort that has been put forth to secure a pardon for Mr. Garvey is beginning to bear fruit in the kindlier attitude shown by the attorney-general in the recent conference; but that is all the more reason why the petitions should continue to be sent to the President, "lest he forget." The way to get what you desire is to keep on working for it in all honorable ways. We desire the pardon for President-General Garvey and we urge, therefore, that work to that end should not be allowed to lag in the least. Keep on hammering away at it. RACE PREJUDICE IS THE SAME IN NEW YORK AND SOUTH AFRICA THE largest, things in life are often affected decisively by the smallest, just as the largest wheel in a machine may be affected by the smallest. But so it goes, on the theory that a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, and that an injury to the least member of society is an injury to the greatest. Cause and effect are invariable in their workings, and we may always expect to reap as we shall go. But a great many people, "wise in their own conceit," flout all of this philosophy, which is the essence of common sense, approved by the ages, and prefer to believe that they can shape things as they wish them without regard to the eternal fitness of things as we have it in the natural law of relativity; that is, the relation of things to things. The hazing of three Jewish doctors, internes in the Kings County Hospital, by non-Jewish doctors, caused Mayor Walker to take personal charge of the investigation, with the announcement that he would probe to the bottom the charges of race discrimination in the hospitals of the city and punish those guilty. Several doctors have been suspended during the investigation, after it was brought out that they were actively engaged in the hazing, which was brutal and humiliating. It was also brought out that the discrimination and humiliation of Jewish internes in the hospital has been systematically practiced for some time, and was extended even to Jewish patients. The whole business appears to be of the most unheard-of character, and justifies Mayor Walker in deciding to investigate conditions in all of the hospitals controlled by New York city. Mayor Walker should be able to find out that the Jews are not the only race that is humiliated and discriminated against in the hospital service of New York city. Our physicians should see to it that the mayor is properly informed as to the privileges denied Negro physicians and internes and nurses and the treatment often given Negro patients in some of the city hospitals. Our side of the question should not be allowed to remain unstated. The Jews have, it appears, much cause for complaint; we are sure the Negroes have more. Let them each fight for justice and fairplay. It is the only way to get what they deserve. In the last issue of The Negro World we republished an article from the Rand Daily Mail of Mafeking, South Africa, in which it was shown that the white nurses in the Victoria Hospital resigned in a body rather than attend operations and care for the patients of a Negro physician. Dr. S. M. Molema, even when those patients were of the white race, as was often the case. Dr. Molema being one of the best educated and most experienced physicians with the only X-Ray apparatus in the district. Dr. Molema is standing on his rights as a physician and the matter has been appealed to those higher-up for final action. Race prejudice is the same sort of slimy snake in New York as it is in Africa, and everywhere the head of it should be bruised by systematic and persistent opposition to it. The man with a message is one of God's noble men, and his place in the Literature and life of his times is always, sooner or later, a large and useful one, and such a man, consecrated and inspired, fails not in going out to his fellow-men and beseeching them in some definite message to— THE VALUE OF KNOWING THE SPANISH LANGUAGE ONG ago the editor of The Negro World made the suggestion that a thorough course of Spanish should be taught in the schools maintained for the Negro people; and the matter was generally discussed for a season, and then was dropped, as we are disposed to grow hot and cold upon such vital question, taking refuge in the chronic Greek attitude concerning disputed questions. "I will see later concerning this matter," and then Build today, then, strong and sure. With a firm and ample base; And ascending and secure. Shall tomorrow find its place. PONTIAC, Mich.—Been, swarming on the alley hood, under the top of a new rodenter and across the walk in a busy section of the downtown shopping district tormented pedestrians and host the owner of the machine away from it a considerable time.

ALIGE ABBERSON of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Have Your Children's Tooth Examined Now that vacation time is here again, it is a good thing to take your children to the dentist. Everyone should have his teeth examined once in every six months. It is just as important for young children as for adults. Good care of the first teeth helps the second teeth. Good care of the second teeth, when they are coming in, and afterward, is vitally important. Your children should have their teeth cleaned by a dentist or dental hygienist at least twice a year. At this time the dentist will also take care of all cavities to be filled and all other necessary dental work to be done. It is important to have proper occlusion, not only because prominent teeth affect one's personal appearance, but also because it is necessary to have the proper approximation of the upper and lower teeth in order to chew food properly. Teach your children to keep their mouths in good condition. Teeth should be brushed at least twice every day, morning and night. A rotary downward and upward motion is the best. Use dental floss to remove particles of foods which may catch between the teeth. The condition of the mouth and the teeth has a far-reaching effect on health. If teeth are not kept in good condition and the mouth is not kept clean, the teeth are more apt to become diseased and infected. The poison from this infection spreads throughout the system and causes such conditions as rheumatism and a lowering of the general resistance. For Better Lynchings (From the New Orleans Morning Tribune.) Competent critics of lynchings have long been disaffected with the quality of the Mississippi performances, and it has even been suggested that these specialties be abandoned. These captious persons charge that the lynchings which have been put on in Mississippi have lacked the awful dignity and nobility that should pertain to an act of solemn justice. They even charge that the justical orgies have been too impromptu. It has often been difficult to obtain seats. But Mississippi has not wished to cast away lightly a tradition. It is gratifying to see that at least a movement has been started which may be expected to result eventually in bigger and better lynchings which will satisfy those who have found fault with the old tough-and-ready affairs. Press dispatches from Jackson and Natchez in the past few days have revealed the coming of the new order. The first dispatch, which told of the high state of feeling about one Walter Burley, who had been proposed as the central figure in a lynching, said that several thousand persons, assembled in a mass meeting, had pledged themselves "20 per cent," not to lynch Burley "at present." The other dispatch, from Natchez, revealed that an organizer had visited that city to enlist recruits for the Burley lynching. These dispatches are most pleasing for they indicate clearly that American business methods and efficiency will hereafter come to be applied to lynchings. The old hit-or-miss system by which a man might be lynched or might not will disappear, and we may expect to see these spectacles handled by skilled men who know how to get out the crowd and how to make the victim squirm. Then one will know just when a lynching is coming off, and will be able to reserve seats in full view of the central tree or telegraph pole, with amplifiers at suitable stations so that no one need miss the exact words of the choking victim's last plan as he is strung up, a matter which has caused considerable annoyance under the present system. The organizers will naturally take a certain percentage of the gate, which should be particularly large for stake-burnings. A Falling Birthrate And Why Noted Figures from twenty-eight States compiled by the United States Census Bureau show for the year 1926 in the territory covered a birth rate of 20.1 to the 1,000 of population and a death rate of 12.1 against 21.1 and 11.7, respectively, for 1925. Florida had the highest rates—26.4 for births and 15.3 for deaths—and Montana the lowest, 14.2 for births and 7.8 for deaths. The character of the populations accounts for these wide discrepancies. The phenomenon of a falling birth rate in observable in practically all peoples living under the conditions of Western civilization; lowering of the rate here was to be expected from curtailment of immigration, immigrants being the most fecund element in the population. It need cause no unseasonal. The bureau does disclose one fact which should be the subject of careful inquiry: This is a generally higher infant mortality in the area under consideration. This was recorded in twenty-one of the twenty-eight States revered. No conclusions worth discussing can be drawn from comparison of figures for two years, but the more suggestion that care and protection of infants have even momentarily been relaxed calls for renewed vigilance in the conservation of the nation's most valuable petroleum—its habben—New York Sun. All paper money, says a report from the United States Treasury office, has the same weight. Since it takes 20% dollar bills to weigh the same as one standard silver dollar (112.5 grains), the weight of any bill is 26.12 plus grains.

Delegation Visits Surgent A representative delegation of nineteen men and women, among them Madam M. L. T. De Mona and Prof. S. R. Williams of The Negro Development Union of New York, City, called upon the Attorney General on June 20 to plea for the release of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. The delegation was courteously received and Mr. Sargent's hospitality was rare and inspiring. The Hon. Fred. A. Toote, chairman, made a dramatic appeal, pointing out various phases of the case which merited special consideration. Others who addressed the Attorney General were: Prof. Williams, Mr. Craigen of Detroit, Madam De Mena, Sir William Ware of Cincinnati, Mr. Knox of Chicago, Mr. Green of Miami, Mr. Johnson of Columbus and the writer. The delegation graciously retired, hopeful of success. Those who constituted the Board of Trustees of Liberty University journeyed to Cluremont to inspect the condition of the groundr and buildings and to lay plans for the future success of the institution. Board convened in business sessions the night of June 20 and the morning of June 21. With the exception of those who severed official connection with the association during the past year, the trustees were returned in office for another year. Plans were laid for an immediate campaign of $10,000.00 to meet pressing indebtedness and necessary improvements and repairs. Notes of interest en route from Washington, D. C. to Newport News, Va.: The Atlantic Coast Line, true to Southern policy, practices segregation, but it is not as revolting as that of the Southern Railway, the Norfolk & Western, or the Virginian. The Atlantic Coast Line supplies the same steel car with comfort and convenience for its "colored" patrons as it does for the "whites." The ticket agent at the Petersburg station displayed special interest in Liberty University. He invited the writer to his sacred domain and asked a barrage of questions from the individual profession of the trustees to the class of school we planned to develop. He took particular pains to make "these northern Negroes" at home. The number of brief cases, magazines, books and other literary objects of the party seemed to have awed the whites opposite. While waiting for the taxi to get ready an unkempt, hungry, inquisitive Negro asked for me. "Are you from the North or South, mister?" The Norfolk & Western fincrow car from Petersburg to Norfolk made me deadly sick. It was more a smoke room than a car. Beautiful, neat young ladies were suffocated; three children fell sleep to escape the irony. In Norfolk I saw colored citizens riding in second-hand buses to work and home, all manned by white drivers. In Newport News there are no buses for colored—the street car company won't stand for it—but street car fare is $5 cents. Suffolk, heart of the peanut industry, has a growing and progressive colored population. But there, no place to go after the day's task is done. The only movie house to which they are admitted is the "Potoshow." This fire trap is a diagrace. Negroes sit in the little balcony and watch chivalrous white men triumph always over the savage Red Indian, with a not thought of their own future. Our race owns much personal and real estate in this industrial town, but suffers most from lack of aggressive leadership. To show how far civilization has advanced in Virginia the illustrious "chain gang" is now an institution of the city of Norfolk by choice of the city fathers. Hereafter all male prisoners over 18 years of age, charged with misdemeanors or confined for the non-payment of fines, are to be turned over to the superintendent of the city chain gang. Economic conditions in Virginia are at a low ebb, but our people are fighting the battle of life with fine courage and determination. I saw them just out of the shipyards Saturday in Newport News filing into the Crown Savings Bank, their own bank managed by a competent directorate, depositing such of their meager salary as they can afford. And, too, I saw Negroes patronizing Negro enterprises extensively in Norfolk and Newport News. I found them keenly interested in the Negro press, to which the most humble of them subscribe. The white man may succeed in persecuting the Negro in the South, but it was never ordained that he should succeed in starving him or depriving him of "Home, sweet home." When you want inspiration, when you want to see the stuff of which real heroes are made, go South. The Negro in the South is no coward. He is industrious and courteous to a fault, and in courage and manhood he has few peers. Africans Must Save Africa The following from the pen of Abhole Akiwumi, B. A., appeared in "Wausu," official organ of the West African Students' Union of Great Britain: "Every race has an ultimate goal as an object of its development, although attempts to give a correct description of the nature and character of this ultimate goal seem to have baffled some of the highest intellects. We make no attempt here to define the ideal, but we are in a position to indicate roughly what appears to be the belief of some thinking West Africans. West Africans believe that the end of all upward movement of humanity ought to be towards the attainment of a state of life harboring nothing to warp the full and compete has either to become hardened or leave the line of battle. Just as a less hardened pebble becomes harder through the sympathetic rubbing against each other of a great group of pebbles, so a young nation territory like West Africa cannot expect to achieve its fuller development to complete nationhood unless it comes into sympathetic contact with other nations. The battle to reach the ideal of humanity cannot be won by one nation alone or by all nations separately, but by all of them in complete unity and unison, each nation, like the pebble of our analogy, refining its individuality while imparting enough of its strength and resources to the common pool. Victory can be gained or its accomplishment assured only on the recognition by all the world of the fact of the individuality of each nation in a universality of humanity. . . . West Africans have it in their own hands to shape the destiny of the great country to which they belong. My appeal to them is to rise up to the call of the moment. The cause of West African nationhood is a noble cause. Be not deceived into the continuance of a life of lethargy and apathy to which some of us are, unfortunately, often prone to fall easy victims.

FRED A. TOOTE, Chairman (Editorial in the Gold Coast Times) We believe it was Assop who remarked on seeing a fine army without a leader that it was a fine animal without a head. It is an apt illustration, for an army without capable leaders is about as efficient as a headless animal. No army, no matter how large and well equipped, could win a battle or be led to the battlefield with any hope of success unless it is under capable leadership. As in ordinary warfare so in the political conflicts in which we are engaged there can be no success, nor permanent results recorded, if we lack able, honest, conscientious and withal selfless men to lead the people. But have we the men—have we really leaders? That is a question which we should like each and every one of us to endeavor to answer conscientiously. It would be a sweeping assertion to say that we have no leaders. We believe we have some leaders, but the true leaders are so few and are apt to be overshadowed by the clamorous politicians. We have not been choosing our leaders cautiously during the last decade or so. We have set politicians to tasks which should have been allotted to statesmen with the result that we have expended a good deal of ammunition with little result. The mistake we often make is to confuse the politician with the statesman. The politician and the statesman are two entirely different beings. The politician is the man who interests himself in politics to secure some personal advantage. The politician takes to politics merely to "make a name," and he regards the freedom of his people, their happiness and contentment as matters of secondary consideration. The highest ambition of a good many of our politicians nowadays is to secure a seat at the Legislative Council, to sit at the Governor's table, and to be seen in the company of high officials. The statesman, on the other hand, is the man who exposes the cause of his people from purely idealistic moves. He does not look for immediate reward, nor does he as a rule anticipate one. He goes about doing good, and labors to insure freedom, happiness and contentment to his people. But it may be urged that we have never really intended to produce politicians and that we elect our leaders to be statesmen who somehow turn out to be politicians. If this is so then there is the more reason why we should take heed how we choose. What we desire our countrymen to realize is that the statesmen are doing their very best, as much as men can do, to achieve those objects upon which the people have set their heart, but that some of the politicians are a dead-weight weighing down the ship and impeding its progress. What the country needs now at this hour of Make All Money Orders, Checks, Drafts, etc., payable to Universal Liberty University peril, when our whole political system is being cast into the molting-pet, is statemanship—the services of the man who will be content to sit in the backwater and outside the limolight and work for the country. We need the patriotism of a man like Gandhi, the "Mahatma" of India. We wonder how many among our readers have heard of Gandhi. The term "Mahatma" in Sanskrit means "high-souled." Gandhi is an ordinary being like most of us except that he was educated at the university of London and is a barrister. But he has developed the patriotism in him—the godlike nature in man—to such a degree that he is referred to among his countrymen as the "Mahatma." His patriotism is so deep and unfathomable, and his convictions so strong, that even his most powerful Africa and the Next War By AMY JACQUES GARVEY While going through some magazines which I was unable to read earlier, owing to eye troubles, I came across the April number of Bcribner's which particularly interested me because of Albert Guerard's article, entitled "The Next War and How to Nip it." I half expected him to arrive at his solution by prating about limitation of armaments and a better understanding among European nations, as other hypocrites advocate, when they know in their heart of hearts that, all nations are secretly preparing for war, and that rivalry between them makes any honest consideration for world peace impossible; but Mr. Guerard, perhaps because he is an Americanized Frenchman, bares the facts, and arrives at a solution which the big powers would like to do clandestinely, but which because of their hypocritical pratings, it would embarrass them to attempt in the open and on a big scale. Italy and Germany are viewed as the two potential aggressors of another world confagration, and why? Because of imperialism—colonial expansion. It should be remembered that Germany emerged from the last war bereft of her colonies, and Italy was not then strong enough to get all she wanted from the other land-grabbers, and so Mr. Guerard moralizes: "That some satisfaction will have to be given to Germany is now admitted by most European statesmen. But Italy has given notice that she, one of the victors, would have to be served first. It is not good manners, but it is sound nationalism. If you will not listen to gentle objections, be prepared for rough gestures." In order to appease these two nations, Mr. Guerard thinks they should be given what they want, he states: 'If we attempt to face the problem THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 2, 1927 (Controlled by Universal Negro Improvement Association) J. A. CRAIGEN, Secretary of Trustee Board UNIVERSAL LIBERTY UNIVERSITY 1516 Russell Street, Detroit, Michigan J. A. CRAIGEN, Secretary opponent has nothing but the highest respect for him. If Gandhi had chosen he would have been heightened long ago if not raised to the porriage, with all the necessary alphabets strong after his name. But he never sacrificed the interests of his people to gain personal advantage. We complain about the institution of Provincial Council and the election of Chiefs to the Legislative Council. But if we penetrate a little beneath the surface of things we shall find that much of this is due to the rivalry between the self-seeking Chiefs and some of the politicians. While professing to serve their country these politicians are working for personal aggrandement; the ambitious Chiefs have observed this, and not to be outdone they are following suit. The result is that a rivalry has been created between the ambitious Chiefs and the politicians which is running the country. We think we shall have to scrap the politicians and work with the statesmen if we are to save the country for posterity. In an realistic a spirit as possible, we find that it reduces itself to a redistribution of tropical Africa. There is no hope for permanent European settlement in Asia; America is divided into independent States, which could not be parcelled out, even if the Monroe Doctrine were not there to protect them. The Union of South Africa is a self-governing dominion; Egypt has won autonomy and quasi-independence; Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco form an inseparable historical and geographical whole, in which there dwell over a million Europeans; Algeria in particular, held by France for nearly a hundred years, has in many ways become part and purcel of the mother country, Abyssinia and Liberia have at least germs of political existence, and as members of the League they are entitled to respect. But from Sahara to Kalahari the rest of the huge continent is still in a plastic state. "A first solution would consist in pooling the whole area under the aegis of the League, or at least under the collective mandate of the western Europenn nations. Italians and Germans would then feel themselves free, and anybody's equals, on the banks of the Niger, the Congo, the Zambezi, or the Upper Nile. There is a minister shadow across such a fair scheme; the ghost of the lamentable Congo Free State. . . . . . . One failure, however, is no final argument . . . . . . The chief difficulty is that of language." The writer then goes on to suggest the use of Esperanto as a common use of speech in the administration of the entire zone, as the use of any two European languages would give such nations undue advantage over others. But not being entirely satisfied with the practicability of this solution, and citing Tangler as an example of the failure of international administration, he further suggests partitioning tropical Africa among the European powers, but says he: "In such a partition the danger would consist in systematically merri- ding the weak. It would be easy enough to satisfy Germany and Italy at the sole expense of Belgium and Portugal. Indeed, England was toy- ing, and more than toying, with such a notion just before the outbreak of the great war. England and France would lose nothing; on the contrary, they might collect a commission for their services as honest brokers; or, in the blunt Bismarckian phrase, receive a tip." Still Mr. Guerard makes a third suggestion, enlarging on the second suggestion for partitioning tropical Africa: "If France and England jointly would match, mile for mile, what Portugal and Belgium had to jettison, a very handsome mass would be created wherewith to satisfy Italy and Germany. England and France would retain all their possessions outside Africa; and in Africa their shares would still be larger and more valuable than those of their new associates. Roughly speaking, we might suggest that England should keep the east coast, from Cape to Cairo, and France rule the Niger Basin, leaving the rest to Italy and Germany. Of course, the writer stipulates that the "open door" should be maintained in all exchanged territories. And so we have before us the scheme to partition Africa on a grand scale in order to admit Italy and Germany into full partnership with the other despoilers of Africa and her wealth. As Europeans cannot live and thrive in any large numbers in tropical Africa, it is unquestionably a scheme to further exploit the raw material of that rich continent, because Africans at home are not strong enough to protect their country from further invasion, and exploitation. The wealth derived from Africa would then be used by these two nations for aggressions in Europe and elsewhere, and their excuse would be that they need territory for their surplus population, which is their daily cry now. Mr. Guerard, however, admits that the question cannot be settled for all times along such lines, and that the Imperialists are anxious now "because they feel that in fifty years it will be too late." yet not wanting to give negroes the credit for menly ambitions common to all peoples, and that is independence and self-government, he states: "Africa for the Africans' is not a political cry or a plious wish; it is a necessity which we can bend to our will only in a small degree." While Mr. Guerard seems to think that repartitioning tropical Africa among the European nations, will prevent another war during the next half century, we believe he is reckoning without his host, for with the growing spirit of nationalism in Africa, and the natural repercussion from Asia throwing off white domination, it does not seem wise to think that European nations can, for another fifty years, plunder the wealth of Africa.

Next Sunday, and on all succeeding Sundays, when Americans, who are the descendants of the Huguenot, the Catholic, the Cavalier, the Puritan, the Quaker, the Dutchman, the Jew, how at the altar of God—when the sun of the heavens shines through the stained-glass windows, and when the petitions go up from the plain deks or the marble pulpits, I am sure the prayer will be for the righteousness, the security, the prosperity of this nation. This commingling of all countries and of all creeds, under one emblem, has made us a people of dauntless courage and sublime virtue—a people notable for our willingness to work, common sense and a raging thirst for right and for liberty. The most contemptible, low-minded, degraded set of un-American citizens is composed of those who appeal to race prejudice. Race animosity has converted French and Belgian streamlets into rivers of blood. In England, in Scotland, in Ireland, men have been turned into life penitentiaries—into exile posts. The Turks and all the Orientalists have fled out the heart of the Negro. Indiana have lashed the paleface to the wild horse of passion. And all this is race prejudice—beasthood. Worshipping the 'Demi-Gods' The elevated epigrams, the lofty logic of the tall-timber writers miss the mark. The distinguished, dignified, far-advanced thinkers ring the bell in the bull's-eye of some distant star; but to my mind it is far better to come to earth, hitch all this ambition to a dirt wagon and help fill in some of the sinkholes where we poor humans have to travel. Profound philosophy is for the professors. My simple thoughts are for common folks who are willing to mix a lot of work in their plans to win. The secret of big men's successes, the open-sosame to wealth, can be found along the same narrow pathway as that which you daily tread. The successful men are on this earth, and so are you. In the days of Homer the demigods, of peoples of African descent toward Europeans, and solidify them more strongly in an effort to redeem Africa and rule themselves. Nine years ago Marcus Garvey said "Africa is the bony contention among the robber nations of the world," it is this conviction that urged him to pursue the work of African redemption, and we who were short-sighted enough as not to follow him, are now beginning to value him as a prophet, and appreciate his great work.

(Translated from the Spanish language newspaper "La Prensa" of New York by Ernest E. Mair.) Following is the integral text of the message of farewell sent by ex-President Bacasa to the Nicaraguans: To the Nicaraguans, Follow Citizens: To the Nicaraguan, Fellow Citizen. You all know how, in virtue of an unavoidable duty, I disembarked in this port with a nucleus of self-abbreating patrols, obedient to the vibrant call of a people risen in arms against the regime that had its origin in the coup d'état of October 25, 1925, and how I organized the government truly representative of Nicaragua, with the unimpeachable obligation of returning to its legal paths the public powers overturned by the usurpation. Because of my love for Nicaragua and my consciousness of the great suffering and incalculable injury occasioned by war, both in its immediate effects and its future repercussions if fighting occurs between brothers, as has happened in our unhappy case, I took every opportunity during my absence from Nicaragua in forced exile to procure by every honorably means at my command a pacific solution of our conflict. In short, I made long and patient representations to the Central American governments which signed the Central American Treaties in Washington in 1923, as well as to the Government of the United States of North America, sponsor of paid treaties, with a view to securing its moral support, highly necessary for the accomplishment of the purposes indicated. Vain were all my efforts, for it developed that because the regime of Chamorra had not been recognized, the treaties were rendered of no effect in this case, so that the Nicaraguan people were forced to the sad conclusion that revolution was the only remaining means of recapturing their rights and liberties. With this knowledge of the situation I came to Puerto Cabezas and organized the legal government of the republic on Dec. 1, 1926. As is well and widely known, the determination of the Conservative Party to control the sit- New York's Great SPORT CRIC UNIVERSAL AT OF THE U VS THE PICK OF NEW YO ON SUNDAY, At the New 145th St.—Ove Game Starts at 2 o'Clock P.

In all these peace conferences the Conservative Party had the sole object in view of imposing, as the only solution of our differences the presidency of Don Adelio Dlaz ce-author of the coup detat which substituted Chamero soon after his withdrawal, and which by means of subterfuges hoped to give its ascension to power the appearance of legality. I was surprised then and am still surprised that the governments of the United States and at its instance those of Salvador and Honduras, without giving reasons either of a moral or judicial nature, recognized the regime of Senor Dlaz, a regime which from any and every point of view was nothing but a continuation of the regime of Chamoría. Diax's Plea to U. 8. The popular movement against the de facto government, and in support of my own legal authority, has been so general and so powerful in this republic, that Diaz was forced to make public admission of the fact that his government could not stand without the support of the United States, and directed to the Department of State of that government a plea for intervention; approving beforehand whatever form the intervention should take. All the Americas listened with surprise and pain to his declarations and pleas, given publicity in Washington, and reproduced in the press of the entire continent. To excuse such shameful conduct which aroused the public opinion of the two Americas, Diaz offered the various pretexts with which you are all familiar; even going to the extent of accusing my government of being in alliance with that of Mexico, and accusing Mexico (at that time in the throes of international difficulties with the United States) of having intervened in Nicaragua and threatened her sovereignty.

As was to be expected by the antecedents pointed out, and because of others which are common knowledge the plea of Diaz were acceded to by the United States Government, which power resolved to once more, without justificating motive, and without any species of right conduct, intervene by armed force against our people. In keeping with this resolve the United States Government dispatched to Nicaragua a large fleet in full battle array. American troops were landed on our soil to the hurt and injury of our sovereignty, my troops were disarmed under pressure of threats and I was reduced literally to a state of imprisonment, thus depriving me of all activities related to the carrying out of my charge and severing my communication with the constitutional army. These same American troops destroyed a part of our armaments, dumping 20,000 cartridges and an appreciable quantity of rifles in the Rio Grande. They denied to my government the use of sea-going vessels and subjected us to a severe blockade. They prohibited in the same manner the collection of duties and taxes on the part of my government in the territory under our control, compelling the taxpayers instead to pay their contributions into the coffers of the Diaz Government. They established numerous "neutral zones" throughout the republic which were in actuality zones of protection for the troops of Diaz and zones of hostility for those of my government, whose authority they thus undermined. Whenever our forces were at the point of capturing a large city the American troops promptly occupied it, repeating this operation until they had practically invaded the whole country, etc. And so these irregular proceedings and attacks continued under the pretense of protecting American lives and properties which were never in danger and had never been menaced, and without their ever, at any time, making representations to my government regarding these alleged injuries and menaces. (To be continued.) ROLAND HAYES WILL BUILD SCHOOL IN MEMORY OF MOTHER From The Nathan Roland Hayes, the famous Negro tenor and one of the most interesting figures in the world of music, has decided to build a school for his people near Calhoun, Georgia. With no family to support, with wealth rolling in upon him, he has hit upon this means of erecting a memorial to the mother who was so devoted to him, so fearful that his taking up singing as a profession might lead him into bad company and bad ways, who unfortunately died just before he became one of the foremost male singers of the world. He wishes, he says, to build a school "as enduring as her great gifts to me," and he wishes to make his tribute in the high standard of instruction provided. There are plenty of Negro schools in the South adequately equipped with bricks and mortar, bedrooms and schoolrooms and trade-shops, and all the rest, but there are far too few in which the standards are of the highest. For decades past we have longed for someone to appear who had the means to make a model rural school for Negroes with an attendance of from one hundred and fifty to two hundred children; who would not be compelled to spend his time going hat in hand to beg for doles to keep the school alive, but could make an institution physically perfect in every particular, with the best teachers to be had. Such a school could exercise a tremendous influence all through the South by setting standards for the managers of every similar undertaking, whether for blacks or white. We do not know whether this is Mr. Hayes' plan; we do know that he has hit upon one of the finest types of memorials and one that does credit alike to his heart and to his head. BERLIN.—Provisions which not even a legally trained mind would ever consider applicable are contained in the draft for the new penal code of Germany, the Frankfurt Gazette holds. As a glaring paradox No. 54 is mentioned, according to which a criminal sentence to death or life imprisonment may also be declared permanently unfit to fill any public post, No. 57, going still further, empowers the court to supplement a death sentence by prohibiting the condemned individual from voting, either forever or for from two to ten years. Life over death must certainly be taken for granted, mocks the Gazette, if such provisions are ever to be practically applied. ONEIDA, N.

Trivial incidents or minor provocations on either side may unloose the flood-gates of passion and call out the vilest instincts which in the course of war disfigure the annals of history. The ideas and sentiments embodied in the Swaarjist resolution were not the claptrap of political rowdyism as certain London papers tried to make out. On the contrary, they reflected a great deal of political sanity and of sympathy with the arduous struggles of the Chinese people for independence and national sovereignty. Nor let us forget that in all the indefensible opium war against China, in the course of which concession after concession was wrung from the country at the point of the bayonet, Indian troops have invariably been employed by Great Britain for the promotion of her imperial ambitions in that unfortunate land. The capture of Hongkong, the annexing of Welnhaiwei, "the International Settlements of Hankow and Shanghai" were all effected by the assistance of Indian soldiers. Stripped of all diplomatic verbiage this means that the citizens of a country horseln in a state of tutelage have been compelled to fight at the bidding of England to destroy the freedom of other countries with which India has had no direct ground of dispute. Such a process-might have been tolerated when the flame of nationality burned low in India, but with the growing realization of political nationality there the attempts to use her troops beyond her borders will continue to be bitterly resented. India's intellectuals have lost all sympathy from countries which her soldiers have been called upon to subjugate or overwea at the instance of Great Britain. But it is not only the emphatic repudiation of imperial adventures and armed intervention in the affairs of another country that is being energetically voiced in Indian political circles today. There are more fundamental and valid grounds of protest. In the first place there is a widespread opposition and revolt against the hegemony of European nations over Eastern countries, and for this reason the vicissitudes of the Chinese struggles are being watched with breathless interest all over the Orient. This interest is being enhanced and is gathering momentum because of the universal desire among the self-conscious elements in subject nationalities to rid themselves of what Mr. Asquith called "the intolerable degradation of a foreign yoke." India is not alone in assuming a critical attitude toward the dispatch of troops to China. Japan has protested against the billeting of British troops in certain areas in Shanghai. The British Labor Party has denounced the policy of their own Government. Lord Parmoor has been suggesting a recourse to the League of Nations, on whose Council sits a Chinese delegate. If the Pekingese delegate has not proper credentials, another could be appointed who might be an authorized spokesman for his people. The distinctive and essential elements in the Chinese struggles for unity and independence are not only the desire for the establishment of a central government with plenary authority, but the abolition of all foreign privileges and control in their territory in the shape of capitulations and extraterritorial rights. The Chinese struggle for the abolition of these rights is being watched with a great deal of interest in Egypt and India. In Egypt, after the grant of partial independence, foreign European residents pay no taxes, though they have built up considerable fortunes in Cairo and Alexandria; they enjoy all the benefits of citizenship and in legal proceedings are tried by their own consular courts or by mixed tribunals. In India public men are deported or interned for long periods without charge or trial under Regulation III of 1818 and other archaic repressive measures legalised by the passing of emergency acts. And yet if a single Englishman of the commercial or professional community were deported or interned without the aid of counsel and without a public trial, the agitation which would follow might threaten to shake the foundations of British rule in that country. The reason consists in the assumption that laws are to be administered in one way for the Oriental and in a radically different manner for privileged European oligarchies destined by high heaven to wield the scepter in the East. Speaking from his place in the Legislative Assembly in March, 1926, Pandit Mottil Nehru, the leader of the Swarajist Party, pointed out that "some of the noblest sons of India had been shut up in jails" without charge or trial. The reference was to political prisoners interred in the Mandalay jail on police suspicion. These were originally 120. Some have gone mad, a few died in prison, others have been released to be kept under police surveillance, while a great many still lie interned, including the chief executive officer of the Calcutta co-operative. This gentleman, an honor graduate of Cambridge, has since been retrained unopposed to the Legislative Assembly. Still the Government declines to release him, though the Swarajists have charged the Government with the violation of privilege in keeping him away from his place in the Assembly. Pandit Nehru warned the Government that unless it took great care it would find the whole country honeycombed with secret societies. On the conclusion of his speech he walked out of the Assembly with all his followers. On this occasion, as on previous ones, the Government argued that a state of emergency existed analogous to a state of siege, when constitutional guaranties, Magna Charta, and the writ of habeas corpus must be suspended. The difference between the official point of view and the standpoint of all the political parties on this question is absolute. But the debates and discussions, the assertion of rights and demands for the redress of grievances are only incidents in the formulation of the demand for autonomy and self-determination. The days of foreign rule in Eastern lands are numbered. Imperialism has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. Only time is needed to seal its doom. There is not the shadow of a doubt that the passive resistance and non-co-operation movement of Mahatma Gandhi had appreciable repercussions in China. And happenings in China are galvanizing hopes and aspirations in India, as they have done ever since the downfall of the Manchu dynasty. France N. Finston, Box 47, Hamilton Grange P. O., N. Y. One has only to read the Indian newspapers as they comment on the advance of the Cantonese and on the program of the people's party to realise how pervasive this influence is. One has only to pass through the bazaars and market-places to hear the scraps of conversation carried on even by the uneducated. The burden of the subject is the same, a lively interest in the struggles of an Eastern neighbor for emancipation, social, political, and economic. But what will happen in the event of a military intervention by the great Power in China? The answer is quite simple. Not only will such an ill-starred attempt serve to unite the Pekingese and the Cantonese, but it will undoubtedly fan into a flame the smoldering fires of discontent in India. Such a policy will be interpreted as an attempt to continue that ascendancy over the internal and external affairs of Oriental countries which is becoming, in an increasing measure, intolerable to the Oriental consciousness. Whatever the defects and shortcomings in the political ideals of Japan, the country has at least fought through to a recognized place in the comity of nations. With China and India politically stabilized and emancipated, there seems to be a high degree of probability that we shall have a real league of nations in the East, as Europe has a League of Nations in Geneva. Behind this cultural federation and this political alliance will be the desire for peace and development and not for war or aggression. We believe that prophecies of yellow peril will be proved to be only figments of the imagination. We also believe that freedom will contribute to the enriching of the cultures of the East, and that to an independent and adolescent East Europe and America will be welcome, not as masters, but as friends.

Most Roumanians Prefer To Go Barefooted BUCHIAREST.-The joy of going barefoot, which ends with childhood in most countries, continues through life for the majority of Roumanians. Through all the countryside and even in the city shoes are spurned by adults as well as youngsters most of the year. Sometimes even in winter one sees a hardy peasant and his wife walking barefoot in the snow. When peasants go to town on market days, or to church on Sundays, they carry shoes with them until they reach the city line or the church steps, and then they put them on. They are immediately taken off as soon as the feet turn homeward. Most of the peasants and the lower classes in the cities as well, when they are not barefoot, clothes their feet in a very primitive manner. Heavy home-spun stockings, sometimes two or three layers of them, are pulled high upon the leg. The soles are then covered again with a gondola-shaped bit of rough leather bound with thongs. When these are put on for the winter they stay on until spring, night and day. or who suffer ovarian pain, pains in the lower part of the stomach, bearing-down pain, pain in the abdomen, pain in the back, pain in the ache, melancholia, despondency, nervous derangements, flushes of heat, foeting and indefinite pain, whites, painful or irregular periods, should write to Mrs Hillen Lowell 8528 Mass, Kansas City, Mo.

The general public of Oakland and the "East Bay Cities" were given a great literary and musical treat at Carpenter's Hall on Sunday, June 12. at 3 p.m., when the Oakland Division No. 188, U. N. I. A., staged its first great mass meeting of the Garvey's Release Week. The meeting of June 12 was the first of a series that will continue throughout the week at our headquarters, 1485 Eighth street, and ending at Carpenter's Hall on Sunday, June 19. at 3 p.m. The meeting began by the playing of the processional hymn, during which the distinguished speakers were escorted up the alley by Major Wm. Tibba to their seats on the roostrum The President, Rev. C. A. Davis brought the audience to their feet by announcing the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains." At the close the chaplain read the devotional exercises, after which the President made his opening remarks, informing the audience of the nature of the meeting and the cause for which they were assembled. He then introduced Mr. W. A. U. Deane as master of ceremonies for the evening. Mr. Deane in a few well-chosen words expressed his thanks for the honor conferred on him and at once proceeded to carry on the program. The next number was a recitation by little Miss Holloway of the Juvenile Department, which was given merited applause. Little Master Holloway followed with a nice address on "Garveylam" which was well received. The next number was the reading and explaining of the preamble, objects and aims of the organization by Mr. Deane. The President-General's message was next read by Mr. McDonald, and current topics by Mr. G. E. Irman, secretary. The choir then favored with a song and the first speaker of the evening in the person of the Rev. Dr. W. J. J. Byers, pastor of Cooper's A. M. E. Zion Church, was then introduced by the High Commissioner, Rev. C. A. Williams. Dr. Byers spoke from the subject "Our Position and Our Heritage." In the course of his remarks he cited the principles on which the declaration of independence was issued, and reminded his hearers that theirs was a human and divine right handed down by the Creator to all mankind, and that every man had a right to live also the right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Dr. Byers in closing said he was very much in favor of a pardon for the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and he hoped that success will crown our efforts. The speaker was warmly applauded as he took his seat his address being forceful, instructive and inspiring. The next number was an anthem by the choir which was beautifully rendered. At the close, the master of ceremonies called on Mr. A. S. Gray, chairman of the U. N. I. A Political League, to introduce Professor Com Yol, principal of the Chinese College of San Francisco, and a member of the Kou Ming Tang, Chinese Nationalist Party. By the aid of an able interpreter, Professor Com Yol's address, which was delivered in Chinese, was interpreted into English. The Professor, in a most brilliant, literary and dramatic style, portrayed the true condition of affairs in China, covering a period of over three thousand years. He told of the reign of the Manchu Dynasty and their downfall, and the beginning of the Chinese revolution under their late illustrious leader, teacher and patriot, Dr. Sun Tat Son. He recounted the crimes, atrocities and oppression heaped and committed upon the peaceful, industrious and innocent Chinese people in their own country by the imperialism of foreign powers, which is the real cause of all the trouble in China today. He pointed THE NEGRO WORLD, SAFURDAY, JULY 2, 1987 MONTHLY SUBJECT FOR DISCUSSION: WHAT ARE THE OBLIGATIONS OF PARENTS TO CHILDREN AND CHILDREN TO PARENTS?

But, "Young China," said the doctor in a dramatic voice, "is now united and is determined to overthrow the foreign overlordship and set up a United States of China free from the iron grip of foreign domination." Dr. Yol was given a tremendous ovation at the close of his address. Those who were fortunate enough to be present and heard the brilliant address given by this versatile scholar and thinker, will never forget the rare treat they received. At this point the evening's offering was taken and was liberally responded to. At the close of the offering the last speaker, in the person of Dr. Guyanie, leader of the Hindu Gardar Party, was presented by the President. Owing to the lateness of the hour Dr. Guyanie did not speak at length on the subject he had prepared, but gave out a few gems of thought along the lines of organization and national liberty. Among other things the speaker said: "There cannot be any universal peace as long as the other fellow is stealing your land, your gold and murdering your brothers and sisters." The world today is lining up into various alliances for the preservation of their respective groups, and nationalities and it behooves us as weaker and darker peoples to organize and come together in a solid unit for the common good of the race." The Negroes of this country, he said, owe a great duty of their fellow kinmen in Africa and if they would unite all their forces in America for the one common purpose, Africa could be redeemed. "Don't talk it, but act it!" is the plan of the hour," the speaker said, "and if you will only continue to stick together under one solid plan and inspired by one noble ideal, then you will be able to solve the African problem." The audience vociferously applauded as the learned doctor, scholar and philosopier took his seat. The profundity of thought, erudition of diction, and lofty inspiration that vibrated from the distinguished orators visibly moved the assemblage to the tenseness and gravity of the hour, and left on their minds food for thought on the vital issues to be confronted on the march to national liberty and African redemption. Among the many visitors present was Mr. Nelson Henderson, President of the Voico Publishing Co. and one of our city contractors. The announcements were then made and the meeting was brought to a close by the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem and prayer by the chaplain. W. A. DEANE, Reporter. PONTIAC.

A. on Thursday evening, May 12, was a glorious one which shall ever be remembered by the officers, members, friends and well wishers. It was the occasion of the visit of a distinguished guest in the person of Madame M. L. T. De Mena, assistant international organizer of the U. N. L. A., who arrived from Port Limon, accompanied by her little girl and Mr. Louis F. Lavenyire, the scoutmaster of the Port Limon division. She was awaited by the Black Cross nurses at the railway station and escorted to her place of abode. She then rested and prepared for the meeting, which was held at 7 p.m. in the same evening. In spite of a damp evening with dark clouds the audience was an unusual one. The hall was packed to its capacity, while many stood, anxious to hear the inspiring message from the lips of Madame De Mena. The meeting opened in the usual way with the opening ode and prayer by the chaplain, Mr. W. Wallace. After the preliminaries the meeting was turned over to the president, Mr. Barnes, who presided. He made the opening remarks, followed by a song from the choir. A recitation as a token of welcome was given by Master C. McFarlane. After a selection by the choir the welcome address was read by the first vice-president, Mr. Samuel. The first speaker was the small companion of Madame De Mena. She put the house to wonder with an address which could not be bettered. The next person who spoke was Mr. Louis F. Lavenaire, scout master of the Limon Division, as a royal guard of Madame De Mena. He gave an encouraging address. The president then introduced Madame De Mena, who rose in the midst of cheers. She made a short preface and took for her subject "The Negro and the International Situation." She held her audience with eloquence and force spell bound for over an hour. She gave a history of the U. N. L. A. from its infancy to the present time and showed its aims and objects for the benefit of Negroes. She appealed for funds, which received a fine response, after which she introduced a song, "All 'Round the World." The expressor, Mr. D. Howard, gave an address of appreciation for the visitor. The president made the closing remarks and brought the meeting to a close by singing the Ethiopian Anthem. The next morning all the Black Cross Nurses met at the place of abode of Madame De Mena and she was escorted to the president's home, where she awaited the train and left us much inspired. W. B. DAVIS. Reporter HATUEY, CUBA The Honorable Henrietta Vinton Davis, fourth assistant President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was the honor guest of the Hatuey Division on May 23. Lady Davis arrived on the 2:40 P. M. train from Santiago, Cuba, along with her private secretary, Miss Isafae Thomas. She was officially received at the station by the President, Mr. A. A. Barnes, second Vice President; J. Empty, lady President; Mrs. H. Dehaney, General Secretary; Alarie Welsh, and many members and friends, along with the Black Cross Nurses under the command of Mr. A.

Dehaney, where due accommodation was arranged. After she was refreshed from her journey a monster mass meeting was held beginning at 8 P. M. The Black Cross Nurses stood at attention in front of Liberty Hall to escort Lady Davis and the officers to the stairrum, while the choir in beautiful strains pealed forth the well-known hymn, "Shine on External Light." The meeting was called to order in the usual way by the President, who performed the ritualistic rites and turned the balance of the religious service over to Mr. R. Porter, who acted as Chaplain. As a student of the Bible, Mr. Porter gave a fine lecture. The presidential hymn was then sung and the meeting turned over to the President, who called upon Mr. Porter to give a welcome address. The program was as follows: Remarks by the PrepAid; reading of the front page message from the current issue of The Negro World; anthem by the choir; solo by Miss Russell while the offering was lifted; recitation by Master McNiel; solo by Miss D. Stinnett; tumbourne solo by Mr. A. Francis. The chairman then introduced Lady Davis to the audience while the hall echoed with applause. She took as her subject "The Negro's March to Nationhood." She drove home the deocrines of Garveyism into the breasts of her heirens for 55 minutes. Her address was then interpreted in Spanish to the Cubans present by Miss Thomas, secretary to Lady Davis, and a never-to-be-forgotten meeting came to its close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem. Lady Davis was asked to give another meeting on Sunday morning before leaving for Camaguey, and same was arranged for. At 10 A. M. May 23, Liberty Hall was again crowded to capacity before the hour, and at the arrival of Lady Davis the choir pealed forth the Presidential Hymn while the Black Cross Nurses escorted the party to their seats. A short meeting was staged so that Lady Davis could depart by the 2:40 train for Camaguey. The meeting was called to order by the President in the customary way, and after going through the religious preliminaries Hymn No. 37 from the ritual was sung by the congregation while the collection was taken, followed by an Anthem from the choir. An address was then delivered by Miss Thomas in Spanish, which seemed to arouse the patriotic spirit in the breasts of the natives present. Lady Davis was introduced by the chairman and was greeted with enthusiasm by the audience. She kept her hearers spell-bound for 60 minutes. She touched upon her trip to Africa and informed her hearers of the possibilities of that great country and its future benefits to the Negro race if they will be guided by the mighty plans laid down by our indomitable leader, the Honorable Marcus Garvey. Hymn 10th, Africa, Awaken" was sung; the chairman gave the closing remarks, and the meeting closed with the benediction. ALARIC T. WELSH. Reporter. LOS ANGELES, CAL.

On Sunday, June 12, was staged the largest project parade that was ever staged in this section of the country. We were very fortunate to have our guest on this occasion Chicago Divisions No. 23 and 313 and the Indiana Harbor division. The parade was led by the U. N. L. A., Tenpo Star Dand, the Stewart House Band and the Indiana Harbor U. N. L. A., and was more than five blocks long. The Stewart House Band is one of our 1025 federated bands, with Mr. Harry St. Clair as director, Mr. St. Clair is particularly known as a big-hearted man and a splendid director and musician. The parade moved off to the music of "Onward, Christian Soldiers," while the units in their uniforms, stepping to the tune of the beautiful song, made a wonderful demonstration. There were banners in the line of march with the words, "Garvey's Sick in Dublin Free Hum"; another, "Republicans, Beware! Election Is Near"; another, "We All Love Garvey, Free Him," and still another, "We Voters Want Garvey Released" and "Stop Oppressing Negroes." These banners were very attractive as well as impressive, and the sentiment moulded in a short course of time will have its desired effect. The meeting was opened about 4 o'clock and standing room was at a premium. Among the principal speakers of this occasion were Col. Jenkins, M. M. M. Nelson, Miss Foxie Solomon, of Chicago Division No. 23; Mrs. Z Bagsy and Attorney Ramsey, of the Gary Sun staff of this city; Attorney M. W. Guy, of Indiana Harbor, and our own Miss Lillian Bell.

This day will be long remembered, and the impression made upon the minds of the people, and especially the public, will be lasting. On June 16 the division held its yearly installation.

Suggs, vice-president; Ell Mann, second vice-president; Mrs. Roel's Clay, vice-president; Mrs. Laura Atkina, first lady vice-president; Mrs. Annie Savers, second vice-president; Mrs. Rachael Griffin, third lady vice-president; Lee Clark, Charles Gregory, Joshua Watson, John Davis and George Green, trustees; A.

These figures are the aggregate expenditures of Federal, State and local Governments, and include capital outlays and debt requirements. The increase over 1924 was despite a $265,000,000 decrease in the Federal Government's disbursements. Federal expenses increased again in 1926, however. "Although the Federal Government in 1923 succeeded in checking the rising tendency of its expenditures through a consistent policy of economy and judicious debt retirement there is little hope that departmental expenses can be much further reduced owing to the increasing demand for necessary public service of all kinds." said Magnus W. Alexander, President of the Conference Board. "State and local Governments have generally followed exactly the opposite policy, spending more and more from year to year and borrowing whatever they needed to make up the discrepancy between tax collections and expenditures." Local agencies in 1925 expended $22,000,000, according to the Board's figures, an against $5,421,000,000 in 1924 and $5,136,000,000 in 1923. State Governments spent $1,320,000,000 in 1925, $1,441,000,000 in 1924, and $1,244,000,000 in 1923. Federal expenditures for the fiscal year 1925 were $2,765,000,000; for the two preceding years, $4,121,000,000 and $3,555,000,000. In 1926 they increased to $5,936,000,000. The increase in population has been more rapid than that of expenditures, however, so the per capita cost of government decreased slightly in 1925. The per capita expenditures in 1925, according to the Board's computation, were $64.41; for 1924, $6.58; for 1923, $91.90; for 1913, $30.24. The Treasury will complete the fiscal year June 30 with a surplus of more than $600,000,000, the largest in history, according to information made public today by Secretary Mellon. Dealing in Walrus Whiskers One of Queerest Trades In New York's Wall street district is a woman who makes her living extracting clinders and other foreign bodies from the eyes of pedestrians and motorists on windy days, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. She is known as Cinderella, patrols her "beats" regularly and leaves the amount of her fee to the patients. One of the queerest occupations shown by census reports is that of a man in the State of Washington who buys walrus whiskers and sells them to the proprietors of Chinese restaurants for toothpicks. Another man is employed in packing houses to smell hams. He can quickly determine by the odor if they have soured around the bone in the process of curing. A family of three—mother, father and child—makes a comfortable living as models. They pose in the shop windows to display the latest styles, while the daughter's role is to openly admire her parents' costumes. Teaching parrots to talk is the occupation of one man who conducts his "classes" in a series of soundproof rooms. Making upholstered doll's furniture, collecting sea shells for jewelry and other ornaments and fashioning caricature dolls from dried apples are other queer callings discovered by the census takers. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 2, 1927 Man's Revolver Makes 20 Children Fatherless SHEBOYGAN, Wis., June 10.—The bullets from Walter Doering's revolver, which took his own and two other lives yesterday, also widowed two women and made twenty children fatherless. Doering, 27 years old and partially paralyzed, first shot and killed his 62-year-old father, Frank Doering, after a quarrel. Later, he went to the home of the Rev. William Wambegans, 56-year-old pastor of the Bethlehem Lutheran Church, and told him what had happened. When the pastor showed him no sympathy Doering killed him and then fired a shot into his own head. Doering, senior, was released only recently from the State Hospital for the Insane, where he had been confined six months. One of his eight surviving children, William, is on parole from the same hospital. Another son, Herman, was the first Sheboygan man to die in the world war. The Rev. Mr. Wambaganns, for twenty-seven years a preacher, left twelve children besides his widow. Husband Held as Insane, Wife Raids His Hoard BERLIN—Old Friedrich von Gunter owns a small dairy in Berlin. Some time ago he left his wife and since then has been living with a housekeeper. Mrs. Gunter seems to have become worried about her husband's money, which he kept in a wardrobe. One day Herr von Gunter received an invitation to visit a friend in a hospital. Accompanied by his housekeeper he went to the designated address and was immediately seized by two attendants, who put him in a straitjacket. They pronounced him insane. The housekeeper went to the authorities, who investigated, only to find that Mrs. von Gunten had asked that her husband be shut up, and in the meanwhile had raided the wardrobe in the dairy, to prevent the money from falling into the hands of the housekeeper. Gunten was released and Mrs. von Gunten may have to stand trial, but the good Berliners are wondering what may happen to them if "it's so easy to get locked up in an insane asylum." France Raises Wages Of Its Army Cats PARIS.—Army cats have had their wages raised. As food is their chief expense, there is going to be a lot of liver consumed. Paul Prudent Painleve, Minister of War, raised the official allowance of the cats from 4 to 10 centimes a day. Of course, that means only from about 1 cent a week to 3 cents a week, but the cats are well satisfied. There was some objection to this 150 per cent increase in these difficult times of economy, because the cats' job is to run rats and mice out of army storehouses, and there were those who thought they ought to provide for themselves. However, the cats' landlords, janitors of the warehouses, put in a good word, and the deed is done.

PROFESSOR DECRIES (Continuc: from page 2) are to hold our ground already gained by toilsome evolution and bitter experience. The race, as a whole, must insist (1) that its leadership be of its own choosing, and (2) that the inefficiency and waste due to divided leadership, and, consequently, divided groups within the race, shall cease. One of our well-known figures in public life said, not long ago, that he could no reason why one could not be a member of the U. N. I. A., the I. C. U., the A. N. C., etc. It has the economical altruistic ring. But is it economical? Consider the item of maintenance and upkeep of the many headquarters; consider the cost of the individual who would be sufficiently race-loving and generous as to be a member of all; consider the exactions of time such an arrangement would make upon one; consider the overlapping and duplication of endeavor; consider the impossibility of convincing the mass of the people that these various units are not at enmity with each other. Names of organizations, like names of individuals under the ancient Hebrew system of nomenclature, carry connotations descriptive of certain psychological qualities fixed and clearly defined in the very nature of the object named. Distribution of interest makes for dissipation of energy. A study of the science of progress reveals the fact that all beneficent organic changes have their impetus and inception from within. When the masses become fired with the flames of a controlling ideal epoch-making social changes may reasonably be expected to follow. Magna Charta was wreathed from an unwilling despot by the superior pressure of an awakened people. The French Revolution represented the birth pangs of a new social and political order which, beginning in France, swept over the Atlantic, flooded America and bathed the British Isles as it receded. It was a movement inaugurated by the people. What is true in politics is true also in every other field of human activity. The great religious movements—Christianity, Mohammedanism, Zoroastrianism—had their rise among the masses of the people and were, fostered by prophets springing out of the loins of the masses of the people. Real progress is the resultant of evolution from within. In order that this reform might come about it is necessary that it come from those who suffer from the consequences of the contrary.

If we had the faculty and the means to do so we would set in motion a great propaganda aiming at arousing the masses of our people to a sense of the great danger of our unhappy division and the general waste consequent upon the inefficient handling of the race problem by a divided and antagonistic leadership. U. N. I. A. Has Room for All Of all the recognized organizations functioning in the interest of the race there is one and only one which by name and actual fact takes in the entire race throughout the world. The Universal Negro Improvement Association stands for all that each of the other organizations stands for, and far more. Its comprehensiveness, its numerical strength, its expression of the natural aspiration of an oppressed people at once places it in the position of vantage. Unification is wanted, and it is asking the hearty co-operation of all the leaders of all the groups. Shall that co-operation be withheld and the race permitted to continue to suffer, or shall it be given and the redemption of the race speedily be realized? SEEKING TO CURB (Continued from page 2) and are we in a position to utterly condemn them? The penalty of five years' imprisonment is, on the face of it, ridiculously severe. Aberrations of Youth The same might be said for the inevitable aberrations of youth—though this especially applies, not to those who have lived for many years in South Africa, but to strangers from overseas, to whom the question of the color bar is neither as vital nor its meaning as clearly understood, as it is here. Consider the effect of all this on immigration. Settlers arrive in this country utterly ignorant of its racial problems, and to a large extent lacking its racial prejudices. Such settlers are highly liable to find themselves criminally responsible, under provision of the act, and subject to lengthy imprisonment. Such a state, naturally, is to be highly deplored, but there is far worse to come. It is laid down in Section 6 of the act that if anyone not having been born in any part of South Africa which has been included in the Union, has been convicted of a contravention of the act, the Minister of the Interior "may, by warrant under --- his hand cause him to be removed from the Union and pending removal to be detained in custody." and "any person so removed shall be deemed to be a prohibited immigrant under the law relating to immigrants." A Dangerous Power In addition to the dangerous power which this will render into the hands of any one man, the puerile injustice of the matter is crystal-clear. First of all, it includes as non-South Africans even those who have lived in this country from their earliest youth. Secondly, it places double pressure upon those who are foreign to the country, and thus are not as open to blame as those who have spent a long period of their lives in South Africa, or as "born" South Africans—who are, nevertheless, let off with a lighter penalty! Apart from the question of injustice we must consider what such a course of action will mean to the future of the country. It is indisputably recognized that the crying need of South Africa is an increased population, and it is difficult to see quite how deportation of immigrants is going to help this need. It simply means that the country will be, henceforth, in great danger of lack of infusion of fresh blood. Why, if the act is to stand, should there be one law for "born" South Africans and another, far more rigorous, for strangers who may seek our shores?

Y. PROF M. A. FIGUEROA, Editor La semana pro libertad Garvey. Las masas de nuestro pueblo, el pulpito, la prensa, hombres y mujeres apelan al presidente para que commute la pena al gran leader de la raza. Es increible el que millones apelen en vano. Mientras toca a su término lo semana pro libertad Garvey, esto es, la semana escogida para condensar y responder las diversas sugerencias demandadas por el público, para hacer una apelación intensiva, radicada por todos los grupos de negros y elevar al Presidente un petición condensada, la libre emisión del sentimiento popular, en favor del rescate de Marcus Garvey de la prisión donde se eneuentra, sin que tenga que sufrir el gran leader la inconveniencia de la deportación, nos es satisfactorio dar o luz pública en las páginas editoriales, la opinión del pueblo en pro de la clemencia que se pide para el negro martir. Los periódicos responsables de la raza negra de este país, las iglesias de denominaciones varias, las instituciones de todo rango y variadad, han levantado su voz de una manera unisona y prepotente ante el Jefe Ejecutivo de la nación, no solamente pidiendo lo libertad de Garvey sino que han dejado manifestado en la exposición alzada, que la convicción de que fue objeto y el predicamento que a ésta acompaña, no fue otra cosa sino el resultado de prejuicios, celos y malversado sentido de parte de sus enemigos y no a ningun acto criminoso, irresponsable o perverso de Marcus Garvey. De todos los confines de la tierra han llegado peticiones a la Casa Blanca, culminando estas en una serie interminable desde hace varios meses, abogando por lo libertad del inocente que llá en una celda de la prisión de Atlanta, sufre cual otro prometeo de la leyenda el desgarre de sus entranas por los buitres y tiñosas áureas, que festinean con los despojos de la maldad, la inquina, el prejuicio bastardo y la ductilidad de caracter de una raza que no ha tenido suficiente valor para emanciparse completamente todavía. A continuación publicamos los mensajes de algunas comunidades representativas de los Estados Unidos, donde centenares de negros responsables exponen su opinión sincera acerca de las actuaciones de Garvey en pro de su raza.

Spanish Section gran nación, que levante a mejor altura a un individuo como lo expuesto anteriormente. Hombres y mujeres de todas las estaciones de la vida, en hermosa solidaridad se unen y hacen una solicitud solemne por cliencla ejecutiva. Piden justicia para un hombre a quien consideran el negro más grande de la presente época, enviado a la raza negra y a la humanidad en general, para hacer un bien que el tiempo se encargará de hacer historia. Seria inconcebible e inversosimil el creer que millones de negros, hayan importado al Primer Magistrado de la República y a sus consejeros legales. El Dr. A. W. Pogol, de la Universidad de Beloito, ha encontrado en Mecha-tel-el Arei Arjel, el esquelo de un niño al parecer de seis años; se cree que pertencece a una raza desconocida hoy y que vivia en la época del periodo glacial. El Prof. F. C. Cole de la Universidad de Chicago, que está estudiando el raro esquieto, dice que no se conforma mucho a las razas Neanderthal, Cro-magnon o Grimaldi que se sabe han habitado en Europa o el norte de Africa en los últimos tiempos glaciales. El esquieto está muy conservado y muestra a un niño de cabeza corta, buen desarrollo craneano, anchos huesos en las mejillas y barbilla bastante fuerte. Visto desde arriba el craneo tiene la forma de pera, la edad geológica exacta del esquieto no se puede determinar, dice el profesor Cole, hasta que los huesos de animales y los esquetos de los caracoles terrestres, así como también los implementos encontrados con el, sean estudiados. El doctor George L. Collie, profesor de antropologia en Beloit, se unirá a una expedición el proximo verano para ir a Argel para conseguir mas datos y probar que Africa fue la cuna de la humanidad. Rasgos de inquisición El subadministrador de prohibición confeso que habia sometido a una serre de torturas a Albert Briggs de la raza, con objeto de hacerle confesar que habia recibido dinero para sobornar a cuatro agentes prohibicionistas. La confesión fue hecha ante el juez Knox de la corte federal, donde Briggs y los agentes están procesados por aceptar soborno y violar la ley de la prohibición. Briggs habia declarado anteriormente, que habia sido arrestado al 13 de diciembre y conducido a las oficinas generales del departamento de prohibición donde fue amarrado a una silla, vendido y maltratado de palabra y obra, durante seis horas. El mayor Heise, confeso que habia sometida Briggs a la tortura que el lannaba castigo chino y con toda calma explico en que consistia el castigo diciendo que habia ordenado a sus hombres que amarraran de pies y manos al cautivo, amarrando delle después un panuelo a la cabeza que hecha esta operación de leijo al prisionero, "que si no decía la verdad, apretaria más el panuelo." Briggs habia declarado antes que Heise le habia dado de putapies en el estomago y que otro le habia golpeado en la cabeza con un palo. También dijo como otro individuo habia sido sometido a la misma clase de torturas al mismo tiempo que el, siendo arrastrado por el suelo a putapies insultado de palabra y finalmente lanzado contral el cristal de una ventana resultando herido. El mayor Heise confesó ser verdad esto también, y dijo que habia ocurrido en una habitación contigua y que Richmond, el individuo torturado habia llorado. Explicité sin embargo que se habia hecho es por el efecto psicológico que pudiera causar en Briggs e inducirle a decir la verdad. "¿No sabia usted que cometía un crimen al ordenar que se pusiera una caerda y es paúneo anarrado al detenido?" fue interrogado el mayor por la defensa. El interrogado permaneció en silencio mientras el fiscal interponía una objeción que fue sustentada. Tambien se le pregunto a Heise, si Charles Smith, un agente prohibicionista no le habia dicho que Max Levy estaba operando una taberna en la ciudad después de habérsele puesto um mandado prohibitivo sobre el local, a lo que el mayor contesto que no recordaba. Intolerancia religiosa y racial Los acontecimientos del Kings County Hospital son edificantes. Tres doctores internos israelitas sufrieron una brutal "inovada" de sus compañeros cristianos, evidente destinada. más que a continuar la discutible costumbre estudiantil conocida en todo el mundo, a dar rienda suelta al espiritu de intolerancia racial y religiosa que suele exhibirse en los Estados Unidos . . . La conmoción causada en la opinión pública, y la rapa y energica intervenión del alcalde Walker, parrecen destinadas a acabar con ese incalificable abuso. De todos los lugara de la tierra en donde puede tolerarse cae esplitu, un hospital en el menos indicado. Y un centro científico se deshonra a si mismo permitiendo tales hechos en pleno siglo XX. De lo ocurrido, sin embargo, no podía sacarse otra consecuencia que la de que aún existen en el mundo cerebros desorganizados y espiritus sin cultivar. Porque es indudable que la masa popular en los Estados Unidos no tolearya ya esta clase de prejuicios. Lo ha probado la reacción pública ante la campaña religiosa emprendida contra el gobernador Smith. Y ahora, en Nueva York, es unánime la aspiración a que se investigue la situación en los hospitales y se acabe con estos atropellos, si es que, realmente, se cometen sistematicamente. Pero para lo propio y para los más informados que se筛alan la intolerancia religiosa en países extranjeros, san detenerse a analizar los casos aislados que puedan dar lugar a esa acusación, este intolerable atropello de los médicos judios del Kings County Hospital, debe ser provechosa lección de cosas. "En todas partes cucen habas," dice el sabio proverbio castellano. Y aquí, copio lo prueban ataques a Mr. Smith, el Ku Klux Klan, los excesos prohibicionistas y el antisemitismo todavía floreciente en ciertas parte, hay ejemplos no escasos que ofrecer a la edificación euro; . . . Lo cierto es que el espiritu humano es esclavo de la rutina, del prejuicio es y de la pasión ciega, a través de los más intensos esfuerzos por depurarle y educarle. La labor de la escuela pública de los Estados Unidos, verdadero cimiento de la grandeza nacional, esta en lucha hace ya muchos años contra esas taras del alma colectiva. Y aun no las ha extirpado completamente, como lo prueban estos episodios. Lo menos que puede hacerse, al juzgar paises que no cuentan con la fabulosa riqueza de este pueblo, que hace posible su maravillosa organización pedagógica, sus progresos en instrucción publica, su rapidanente creciente cultura popular, es reconecer que las animadversiones tradicionales requieren mucho tiempo para desarraigarse. Lo que aqui, en materia de prejuicio religiosa, por ejemplo, puede sólo tomar un decenzo, requiere en otras naciones medio siglo. Pero ello no prueba, no obstante, que en ellas haya menos cultura espiritual, menos refinamiento público que aqui. Y quiza, en ocasiones, pudiera incluso demostrar todo lo contrario.—La Prensa, N. Y.

Magazine Section SAYS NO NORMAN BLOOD REMAINS IN ENGLAND Those Who Claim "Our People Came Over With the Conqueror" Thrown Down Hard by a Heraldry Expert LONDON, June 11.—It is rather sad for those blue-bloods who have been proudly claiming direct descent from Norman William's immediate followers ("our people came over with the Conqueror, you know") to be told that "there ain't no such thing" as a person who can trace pure Norman descent. But they are being told so, and by such an authority as A. C. Fox-Davies, recognised British expert on heraldry and family descent. The question has been brought to a head by the announcement that France is to hold a special celebration at Falaise next July of the 200th anniversary of the birthday of William the Conqueror. English national pride has long got over the shock of Norman William's invasion, and there have been a huge number of claims from the British aristocracy to be allotted some special part in the show. "Our people came over with the Conqueror, you know, and we would like to assist at the celebrations," they have been saying to the Falaise organizers. And some of them may get invitations, for the Entente Cordiale is still on and Frenchmen are always polite. But Fox-Davies won't have it. He says, firstly, that he does not believe that there are any direct descendants of the Norman knights who did the rough stuff at Hastings left in the world, and, any way, they can't prove it according to the requirements of heraldry and the laws of unin-pugned descent. "Faith has been placed chiefly in the Battle Abbey roll of knights as proof of direct Norman descent." he says, "but few of the people who claim such descent seem to remember that the original roll was burned in a famous and disastrous fire and on the present roll there are names which were not there before." There is a list in existence, however, in a broken-up form, in a church at Havre, and Fox-Davies accepts an genuine the list compiled by that great authority, T. R. Planche, Somerset Herald, in the College of Arms, in his book, "The Conqueror and His Companions," but says Fox-Davies: To people mentioned in Mr. Planche's list none of the present claimants can prove a direct pedigree claimants can hold of the present claimants can prove a direct pedigree. "The family of High de Montfort, for instance (ancestor of Simon de Montfort), died out, and the later family of the same name came from some people. De Montfort, at De Montfort, in Shropshire. These are but a few from the list, but I have traced the whole lot with the same result. They either left no issue, were killed, or the family died out." It's no use any one trying this "Norman descent" stuff on Fox-Davies, and he takes prominent folk to task for attempting to do so. To Lord Scaraldale (nephew of the late Marquis Curzon of Kedleston), who claims that his family of Curzon, of which he is the male heir, came over with William Gralline do Courson, who fought at Hastings, Fox-Davies says: "My reply is that it would be interesting to hear what is the battle roll to which he refers as carrying the name of his alleged ancestor and what, if any, is the proof of the relationship between Curzons of Kedleston and Curzons of Lockhage." Norman William's original battle roll no longer exists, and it is impossible for anybody to establish direct descent from the Conqueror's knightly companions, who were limited in number, and whose actual identity is now questionable.

SCIENTIST FINDS NEW BIBLE EVIDENCE Excavations in Palestine Reveal What Is Believed to Be the Ancient City of Mizpah, 500 B. C. Perhaps BERKELEY. Cal.-In discovering what is believed to be ruins of the famous old Biblical City of Mizpah in Palestine, William Frederic Bade Berkeley, scientist and professor of religion, has unearthed substantial verification of the history of the Old Testament, believes Dr. Herman Frank Swartz, president of the Pacific School of Religion. Prof. Bade, who is on leave of absence from the Berkeley religious institutions, has "uncovered things of much greater historical interest than the skull of the "bobbed hair Venus," said Dr. Swartz, in disclosing that numerous boxes of prehistoric relics have been received from the excavator. "His findings at Tel-en-masheh (The Hill, Nasheb) serve to confirm, except as to details, which of course would be perishable, the Biblical accounts of the history in the Old Testament." "In the first place," said Dr. Swartz. "It is remarkable that he went directly to the site of what is probably Mizpah and uncovered ruins within a day or two of digging at a place where nothing protruded above around to indicate a city had ever stood there. He located this site before he left the United States by studying the Bible and Biblical history." Mispach, if it should be that venerable fortress which served as the Jewish capital of Palestine in the time of Babylonian invasion, after the fall of Jerusalem, had fortification walls fourteen to sixteen feet thick, the Berkeley scientists has disclosed. Starting within fifteen feet of the surface, now devoted to the raising of barley, the first stratum—the residue of a civilization existing 500 years before the birth of Christ—was uncovered, Dr. Bade has written. The excavations are continuing through other strata evidencing inhabitants who were there 5,000 years ago. Various cults, strata, declares Dr. Swartz, constate Biblical reports of racial insults, and in the lowest strata are of people, as yet unidentified, led there before the Jews captain the land from the Canaanites. Most of the articles slipped by Dr. Bade to Berkeley will not be uncrated until he returns in August or September. FITS Attacks Stopped over night in many cases by no harmful design.

Missing Link Between Language of Pictures and of Letters May Be Found — Dispute Over Translations JERUSALEM, June 18 — The recent discovery on Mount Sorabit (announced in Boston on May 27) of fragments of the mysterious "final inscriptional" which have pummed archaeologists for years, was the reward of painstaking work and a difficult journey into the interior of the Sinai Peninsula by Prods. K里斯oppe Lake and Robert Blake of Howard University. The professors, members of the Harvard-Michigan expedition, had great difficulty in reaching Mount Sertab, which is an eleven-day camel ride from the coast and is in an almost inaccessible region. After taking the important find to Cairo, where the inscriptions were deposited in the museum there, the professors set to work in an attempt to decipher them. Dr. Eutin, Director of the American School of Oriental Research in Jerusalem, likewise, is engaged in deciphering the inscriptions. The missing link between the language of pictures—hieroglyphics—and the language of letters—the alphabet—may lie in an interpretation of the so-called "Moses inscription," as the Sinai inscriptions on stone cliffs are known. The Sinal slabs were found in 1906 by Sir Flinders Petrie, the archaeologist, but were not deciphered until 1916, when Prof. Alan Gardiner, the British authority, deciphered one word, "ba sai", which means "mistress." In 1922 the German archaeologist, Prof. Grimme, gave out a complete translation of the slabs, saying that they referred to the finding of Moses in the bullrushers. Both Profs. Gardiner and Petrie, however, declared that Prof. Grimme had misunderstood scratchings on the slabs for letters and that the translation was worthless. Archaeologists say that the one word "be alat" shows that the people of the Sinai Peninsula, turned hieroglyphics or word pictures into a sort of alphabet. This is considered of great significance, because from these people the Phoenicians or Aramaics may have derived their alphabet, which they passed on to the Greeks, from whom eventually was derived the alphabet in use today. British Experts Deem Find of Much Archaeological Importance LONDON, June 18 (A. P.).—Expert at the British Museum attach considerable importance to the find of the Harvard-Michigan expedition to the Sinai Peninsula, because it may settle the controversy between the British archaeologists, Flinders Petrie and Alan Gardiner, and Prof. Grimme of Germany over the translation of the "Moses inscriptions." The British archaeologists maintain that it is impossible to translate the slabs correctly. The British Museum possesses a small sphinx found together with the original slabs.

THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Real Garveyites Will Defend the Cause To the Editor of The Negro World: It is the custom of some unscrupulous Negroes who, not knowing the principle, aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its founder, the Hon. Marcus Garver, instead of seeking from those who know, ignorantly pass sarcastic remarks, especially many Negroes who happen to be a member of a "little indoor" or other society. Recently two Negroes were working together. One was a "lodge man" and the other a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. A discussion arose concerning their respective societies. The member of the lodge unreasonably abused the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and the other Negro, being a Garveyite, got on top of him with his fists and gave him some good punches for insulting the man who has brought salvation to the Negro race. And that is as it should be. The Negro is fast coming into his own. The spirit of manhood is beginning to manifest itself in him through the teachings of Marcus Garvey, and as a real Christian would defend the sacred principles of christianity, as a Mohammedan would defend the sacred principles of Mohammedanism, as a Jew would defend the sacred principles of Judaism, as the Fascist would defend the sacred principles of Fascism NOTICE!

ALARIC T. WELSH. Hatuey, Camaguey, Cuba. Will America Heed To the Editor of The Negro World: Two years have passed since the Hon. Marcus Garvey, our beloved and revered leader, unintentionally ran afoul of the laws of the great American republic. It is true that we all stand under the law, but many a one commits an unlawful action who is perfectly honorable. No greater "freak" has ever been recorded than that of Marcus Garvey being caught in the vortex of the law for using the mails to defraud. For such a man, for such a sincerity of purpose, in the furtherance of such a cause, that law was never intended to be applied. The particulars of his trial, the ungentlemanly, blessed, unprofessional conduct of the prosecuting attorney, are too revolting and opprobrious to rehearse. Sufficient to say, "a Jew was ever thus." Ah me! "Mana' inhuman to man, makes countless millions mourn." When will the tears of us Negro women cease to flow?

"Peace on earth, etc., when, as Holland said: Never will there be lasting peace until autocracy and diobolical tyranny be defeated and crushed. One hundred and fifty-one years ago the great American nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition, "that all men were created equal" came into being. The greatest democracy, the greatest liberty-loving country on earth. Today millions of Negro mothers on bended knees and in solemn, soulful appeal, are begging for the release of Marcus Garvey, leader of the Negro peoples of the world. Can a nation so conceived and so dedicated allow the pleading of a faction, such as ours, to pass unheeded? Hon. Calvin Coolidge! White American mothers! Liberty-loving, big-hearted America! The same "black mammys" who rocked you to sleep and watched o'er your childhood with zealous care are saying: "Ere the dawn of the glorious Fourth of July, release unto us Marcus Garvey, or cast the lie on the conception and dedication of your great country. Shall Patrick Henry and Father "Abe" look down on your actions in silent scorn? Would that I were a Portia, to plead for the life of my chief at the bar of American justice. In the name of God, and for the sake of suffering humanity, let Garvey go. He is dying. Let not his blood be upon your hands. Again, Mr. President, Negro mothers in America and the isles of the seas, supplicate you. Will you hear them? "How far that little candle sheds its beams. So shines a good deed in a naughty world." Hold not your speech or the very rocks will cry aloud. MRS. M. KATES. Zent, Costa Rica, C. A. "First to Thyself Be True," Is Sage Advice To the Editor of The Negro World: Sir—When, oh when, will the Negro learn the significance of the exhortation, "First to myself be true?" The most abused of all mankind; the most ignored of all mankind; the most despised of all mankind; and the most neglected of all mankind. If we do not organise and band together our forces for self-preservation, no consideration will be accorded our grievances. As a religious group we are too democratic for the present age. We love all races. We believe in the universal brotherhood of man. But do we practice the brotherhood in relationship to ourselves? A race that does not think well of itself cannot expect others to think well of them. We have innumerable records of sacrifices made by us on behalf of others' salvation. Are we unworthy of similar sacrifices? The divine injunction reads: "Love thy neighbor as yourself." In other words, you must love yourself in order to understand the needs of your neighbors. Anybody who does not love himself or herself is not worth sacrifice. The new Negro has eliminated the inferiority complex from his mentality. We believe that we are entitled to the same blessings of this life as any other race. Furthermore, we are equally determined to have them. No apologies are made to existing powers for this change of attitude. It is our right: it is our duty; it is our responsibility. In conclusion, prayer is an expression of faith: 'faith without works is dead'—the hour of action is here. When humans become so drunk with power that they cannot hear our pleas and protests other methods should be adopted ARTHUR S. GRAY Oakland, Calif., June 20, 1927. "Fitness to Wed" Tickets Issued in Italy PADUA, Italy, June 25.—Matrimonial certificates of "fitness to wed" are being issued here as a preliminary, it is hoped, to a nationwide compulsory system of eugenical medical examination of intending brides and bridegrooms. The experiment is being made through a governmentally subsidized "diagnostical center" at the Central Hospital, under the direction, of Prof. Truff. It is intended to prepare public opinion for the eventual compulsory system, approved by a commission of doctors, eugenists and sociologists before the "diagnostical center" was opened. Now the examination is voluntary. Any man or woman contemplating matrimony is examined for a small fee. For Unpaid Income Tax LONDON. June 27.—Teddy Brown, American jazz band leader, was a chastened musician today after a week-end in jail because he failed to pay his income tax. Brown was arrested on Saturday depleate efforts of friends who offered immediate payment of the £280 (about $1.300) which the government alleged he owed. Even a direct appeal to Sir William Joynson-Hicks. Home Secretary, failed to rescue Brown from his cell. SURGERY PRACTICED IN EGYPT 4,000 YEARS AGO CHICAGO, May 29.-The surgical and medical knowledge of Egypt 4,000 years ago will be made public in a book to be issued at Oxford, England, by Dr. James H. Breasted of the University of Chicago. The Oxford press has the only facilities for setting the ancient hieroglyphics. The ancient surgeon whose instructions for treatment are contained in the book had a quite complete knowledge of human anatomy—far in advance of later scholars. He knew, or felt, that the heart and brain played leading roles. He knew something of the pulse and the circulatory system. He was the teacher of the great Greek physicians of hundreds of years later. The book is a translation of the Edwin Smith papyrus now in the archives of the New York Historical Society. The surgeon, in contrast with the physician of that age, had a scientific attitude of mind. Whereas the physician still dealt with human lilies as of a demoniac origin and sought treatment in incantations and other magic formulas, the surgeon went about his work scientifically. He was a cautious man, who divided his diagnosis into three groups, according to the seriousness of the alliments or injuries he was asked to treat. He divided them into alliments he could treat and alliments he could not treat. "In sixteen out of fifty-six examinations listed in the papyrus," Dr. Breastl 4 declared, "the ancient surgeon omits all suggestions of treatment." In case No. 45, relating to "bulging tumors on the breast," which may or may not have been cancer, a verdict is given with the appended statement, "there is no treatment." Mechanical appliances and processes on which the surgeon relied appear for the first time in the literature of medicine. Among them are lint made from vegetable tissue, and frequently applied both as a vehicle for the medicaments externally used and as an absorbent of blood secretions. Plugs or swabs of linen, usually in pairs, and bandages made of linen and manufactured for surgical use by embalmers are listed and named as "coverings for physicians' uses." Medicaments applied externally were almost always bandaged on. South African Natives Herded in Slums The appalling state of native slums, as reported in the "Rand Daily Mail," was discussed by members of the Women's Civic Society at a recent meeting in Johannesburg, South Africa. "We have the menace of plague." Lady Dalrymple declared, "and we are soon going to have a big epidemic unless something is done. We call ourselves a Civic Society, and this is a matter in which we must interest ourselves. The mines are surrounded by great spaces of open ground on which little huts could be built. These would at least be better than the packing cases which are at present accommodating ten or twelve natives, and for the use of which the natives pay about one-third of their month's wages. The municipality must be made to take steps in the matter," the speaker concluded. Mrs. Crocker pointed out that this matter rested with the government and was beyond the power of the municipality. Is a Turk an Artist? He's Got to Prove It CONSTANTINOPLE, June 27.—New Turkey's flair for reforming things has now hit artists, sculptors and musicians. Only those holding municipal certificates will henceforth be allowed to express their inspirations, at least in Stamboul. The Prefect has appointed a commission to examine claimants of the divine fire and to give certificates to the truly inspired. Those who flunk the examination will be branded as charlatans and prohibited from pursuing their artistic vocations within the city limits.

There Are Two Hundred Different Kinds in Circulation, All of It Heavy and Clumsy to Carry BEATTLE. Wash., May 36.—Marines who have seen most of the world declare they have seen enough of the amazing, bewildering currency system in China, reports Capt. Quinn of the steamship President Jackson. Just home from the Orient. Think of receiving 3,000 brass tiao for a silver American dollar! There are more than two hundred separate and distinct forms of money in China; some of it is good in all provinces, but all of it is not par in some sections, and the value of different coins and paper constantly changes. The flood of currency is known as cash. This is divided into copper tokens, dollars, small coins, big notes and small bank notes. Tokens constitute the money of the lower and cooler classes and is in circulation continually. The cash token is of copper or brass—depending on the mental market—has a square hole in the center, and 1,000 of them or a string is known as a tiao. Three tiao equal in value to one American battleship dollar. The poverty of China may be noted when workers earn and subsist on 5 to 8 tokens daily. There are unknown numbers of copper coins in circulation dating back before Columbus's time. Their value has varied from 100 to a dollar to as much as 2,800 to 3,100. At one time there were seventeen mints in China working twenty-four hours a day stamping out small cash coins. Millions of counterfeit copper coins are believed to enter the republic annually from Yellow Sea islands. The present republic has five differently designed silver dollars, ten and twenty dollar gold pieces; ten, twenty and thirty-cent pieces. American army and navy men at Chinese ports are loaded down with Oriental money and a flood of it will be brought home when the yellow man's war is over. Capt. Quinn declares.—New York Sun.
