The Negro World

The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro VOL. XXII. No. 26 Africa With Its Broad Lands And Untold Wealth Invites Redemption We view with pride God's great gift to the black man. Africa! With its countless acres of virgin soil. Africa! With its untold wealth. Africa! The lure of the white man and the inspiration of the black man. We hear much of Africa nowadays. There always has been much talk of Africa, but the black man far removed from his native soil has not always heard. Now he is listening with his ear to the ground. Now he hears the cries of his brethren, groaning and struggling beneath the lash of the oppressor. Now he hears with understanding the plots and plans of the covetous, scheming white man to press farther and farther into the jungles, harnessing the native as he goes, tightening his strangle hold upon the richest country on the face of the earth. Yes, we hear much of Africa. But how many Negroes realize the size and value of this vast domain which is slipping so rapidly away from us? Negroes have been sleeping as the years passed. The time had not come for their awakening. But in His own time God sent us Marcus-Garvey and we sleep no longer. Look at this map! Study it closely. It says that the area of Africa is equal to the sum of the areas of the United States, Europe, China and India. Certainly this is a fact to make the Negro stop and ponder. God gave the Negro this land and The Time Is Near When We Must Stand in the Path of the Alien Who Is Seeking to Overrun the Land of Our Fathers and Cry “Halt! No Further!” Africa’s Millions at Home Are Calling to Us Abroad to Assist in the Preservation of the Fairest of Lands. Resolve They Shall Not Call in Vain God’s Gift to the Black Man peopled it with countless millions of his kind, and the white man is trying to make the Negro believe that God never meant for the black man to possess and enjoy it. Stop and consider. The white man has taken a land approximately one-third the size of Africa, and with nothing like its natural wealth, and made of it the richest country, financially and industrially, in the world. Europe with its many nations directing the affairs of the world can only fill a third. China with its uncounted millions must joint hands with India to fill the other third. All these nations and races have taken their places in the world and are making their racial influence felt. God has given the Negro more. What is he doing with it? Last week we had a very remarkable message from Mr. Haruji Tawara, a brilliant Japanese journalist. He said, "American Negroes, do you know how eagerly your Asian friends are awaiting the success of Garveyism?" And what is Garveyism but the doctrine of the redemption of Africa? Negroes need to realize that the eyes of these millions are upon them. The progressive colored races are waiting for the Negro to acquire some measure of success in his struggle for nationalism, so that they may join hands with him. What do you suppose the Japanese would do if Africa was his homeland? Negroes can take much inspiration from the spirit of the Japanese. Rise, Negroes! Shake off your racial lethargy. Heed the voice of Marcus Garvey. Save Africa for the black man before the task becomes harder. Millions of your brothers there are telling you their story. Are you listening with an understanding ear? Africa can be redeemed. Africa must be redeemed. Garvey has inspired you.

Bf es INSPIRING NEW YORK EXERCISES ON-OCCASION OF OPENING OF LOCAL CONVENTON IMPRESSIVE DIVINE SERVICE, COLORFUL PARADE AND MONSTER MASS MEETING SIGNALIZE OPENING Bishop McGuire Delivers Eloquent Convention Sermon —Says the Negro Having Appealed for a Square Deal in Vain Must Make Up His Mind to Fight the Mob Spirit Himself—Pleads for Garvey at Bar of Enlightened Public Opinion Sunday, July 31, was the opening day of the local conventions arranged to be held by the branches of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world. Sunday was the day set apart for the ceremonial features, the business sessions lasting from August 1 to August 15. New York, despite unfavorable weather, made a splendid showing. There was an impressive service at 11 a.m., at which His Grace Dr. George A. McGuire, Primate of the African Episcopal Church, Honorary Chaplain General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, preached the convention sermon. He was assisted by Hon Fred A. Toote, Acting President General, who read the lesson of the day, and led the responsive reading. The service was of impressive solemnity, Dr. McGuire's eloquent sermon, "Watchman, What of the Night?" visibly moving the vast audience. The usual parade through the streets of Harlem was fixed for 2 p.m., but a thunder storm delayed it for an hour and a half, fears at one time being entertained that it would have to be called off, but at 3:30 the sun shone down and the procession of marchers formed with flags and banners flying in front of the Association headquarters in 130th Street and went on their itinerary through the streets of Harlem. A monster mass meeting at 8 p.m. at Liberty Hall wound up the day's proceedings. A large number of vacationists in the city, members of the U. N. I. A. in divisions in far-off cities, attended the various exercises, while present in full force were large detachments from Philadelphia, come to the city in specially chartered motor buses, and representative groups from neighboring divisions in New Jersey and New York. A surprise was sprung on the gathering at the evening mass meeting in the nature of an announcement by the Hon. Fred A. Toote, at the conclusion of his address, that he had tended his resignation as First Assistant President-General, to take effect from August.15 on the rising of the convention. A few minutes before, Hon. E. B. Knox, President of the Chicago Division, at the conclusion of a brief address, also had made a notable announcement to the effect that he had been appointed the personal representative of the President-General, Hon. Marcus Garvey, and was there to seek the co-operation and assistance of the membership in the work which had been delegated to him by the great leader to perform. Bishop McGuire's Sermon The following is the text of the sermon delivered by Bishop McGuire at the morning service: had felt the tyrant's hand more severely than any of her neighbors Tiglathpliesser, the great Assyrian conqueror, had crushed the very life out had felt the tyrant's hand more severely than any of her neighbors Tiglathpileser, the great Assyrian conqueror, had crushed the very life out of the Edomites, devastating their towns and laying waste their villages. Losing all hope for the future of their country, the people nicknamed it "Dumah," which means "the silence of death." Fair Edom had become to them a grave, a place of silence and decay. But at last, piercing the silence, there comes from Mj. Selt a cry to one of the Seers whose duty it was to behold visions of the future, and to read the destiny of nations. "Watchman," cries the voice, "Watchman, what of the night? This long night of terror and devastation, darkness and oppression, injustice and wrong laid upon us by our persecutors—how much longer shall it continue?" And scanning the horizon, the watchman replies. "The morning cometh"—no longer shall Edom be nicknamed Dumah. The Morning Star has already risen. Awake, Edom, shake off thy nocturnal garments, prepare for the duty of the hour, and put over & program under constructive leadership. A Critical Period "I have chosen as my text the 20th chapter of the Book of the Proverbs, Isaiah portions of verses 41 and 42: "Watchman, what of the night?" The watchman said: "The morning cometh." It is right and meet that we should open our annual local convention of the U. N. I. A. with divine service, and as the Honorable Chaplain General of this organization I come, obedient to the, call of the Acting President General, to deliver the opening message. I have chosen a text that affords us the opportunity to reflect upon the conditions which handicap us a race, and to point out the ways and means of amelioration "Watchman, what of the night?" The watchman said: "The morning cometh." even centuries before the Christian era, the Assyrian Empire terrified and dominated the nations contiguous to the southern and eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea. Egypt. Palestine, Mob and Edom lived in common fear of the Assyrian invader, and sought protection in mutual alliances. The land of Edom, the most eastern of this group of oppressed peoples, Fellowmen of the Negro Race, we also are passing through a most critical period of our history wherever the $11.50--ROUND TRIP--$11.50 Extraordinary Excursion to NIAGARA FALLS Under Auspices of CHICAGO DIVISION NO. 23 and GARY, IND., DIVISION Via Michigan Central R.

Watchman, what of the night of oppression and repression? HON. FRED A. TOOTE RESIGN AS ACTING HEAD OF U. N. TO LAY DOWN REINS AU To the Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association Fifteen millions of Negro Americans turn to the President of these United States for an answer "Calvin Coolidge, what of the night?" But from the distant mountain playground in the Far West where he enjoys his vacation from the cares of state, no answer comes. And even were he at the sent of government in Washington, Mr Coolidge would have no answer for us. He is too engrossed with his aspirations for a third term in the White House, too busy with the Naval Conference affairs in Geneva, to listen to the cry of 16,500,000 of black folk, "Mr President, what of the night?" For us Negroes there is no presidential watchman in the White House. "Oh, thon, merrily with the lynchings, on with the murders, on with discriminations even in government buildings" We turn to Congress and inquire of that legislative body, "Watchman, what of the night?" Having passed the 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution, are you powerless to enforce them? We plead for equal accommodations in public carriers' on land and on sea, and in public places of entertainment We plead for equal opportunity in the industrial world, for equal political recognition for equal educational advantages for our children, for equal justice in courts of law. Congress, what of the night? Have fifteen million Negroes nothing to hope for at your hands? But Congress answers not. We turn to the individual American citizen but we search in vain for a John Brown, a Charles Sumner, a Wendell Phillips, or a William Lloyd Garrison to whom we may appeal. "Watchman, what of the night?" And in vain do we turn to the white pulpit of America to sound a note of warning to the patron. There is no Ellijah, there is no Micah, there is no John the Baptist to be seen nor heard. What has become of the white pulpit? What has become of white Christianity? Like the Laodiceans, of old they have grown lukewarm on those questions of right and justice, and God the Almighty has spewed them out of His mouth. Like the Church in Sardis, the White Church of today has a name that it lives, but so far as the practice of the religion of Christ goes, it is dead—as dead as the proverbial doorknell—it has no seers, no prophets, no watchmen upon the walls No Seers, No Prophets We turn to our Negro ministers, and propound to them the words of our text, "Ye Negro watchman, what of the night?" They are all unanimous that the night of darkness, oppression and injustice has lasted too long, and that something must be done to disperse the gloom, but as to what that something is, there is a very Eabel and confusion of tongues God, however, has always had in reserve the man for every crisis in a people's history. When Assyria was riding ghoadhog over the other nations, Egypt, the strongest of the oppressed, endeavored to persuade Judah to join her in armed resistance—an unwise alliance, that of a pygmy against a giant Just when the politicians' of Judah were about to make this foolish union. There appeared upon the scene a man of God, a true watchman upon the walls of Zion Coatless, hatless, barefooted, Isaiah walked through Jewry for three years, protesting against the political leaders, opposing armed resistance against the powerful Assyrians. He could not alter the policy of the politicians, and so Isaiah went directly to the bar of public conscience, the first great leader to appeal from the legislators to the people themselves—a policy which the late President Roosevelt used as "the big stick" over the heads of Congressmen and Senators. Isaiah hated Assyria, but he loved Judah too well to advise a clash of arms and thus invite national annihilation. Assyria was the man of the hour and his statesman-ship saved his people. So, also, when there seemed no answer to the question of the Negro, "Watchman, what of the night?" about ten years ago there appeared in our midst a young Negro from Jamaica. B. W. I., where he had tasted the bitter cup of political and economic oppression in his island home. He had witnessed the sufferings and discriminations experienced by Negroes here and elsewhere. Preaching the necessity of racial solidarity, organization and self-government he stimulated in Negroes the spirit of nationalism, and millions onlisted under the banner of Marcus Garvey, their slogan being "Africa for the Africans." His wonderful success brought him political enemies, not only in the European governments, which dominate our Motherland, Africa, but among the feautous leaders of his own race in this country, and this powerful combination has contrived, for the time being, to remove him from the active leadership of this movement. But whether he live or die, whether in prison or opt, his vision will become a reality. "Marcus Garvey what of the night?" And that inspired watchman I see a free Africa, in which Africans shall dwell in tranquility in a government of Negroes, by Negroes, and for Negroes; an Africa redeemed from white aggression and spalitation, to which shall be gathered the scattered children of Ham" Garvey has an answer which spells Hope, which spells Destiny for the Negro. Do you wonder that he has inspired us with racial consciousness more than any other Negro leader has done? He is not here today in his accustomed place at the opening of another convention, but the Universal Negro Improvement Association lives and carries on, for in its final analysis and its true appraisal it resolves itself into a spiritual movement—a kind of religion gripping the soul and compelling the allegiance of its membership.

I. A.; TO LAY DOWN REINS AUGUST 15 To the Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Fellow members and friends: It is with deep regret that I have to inform you that I find myself compelled to lay down the duties of the high office of First Assistant President-General, to which I was called a little over a year ago on the occasion of the Extraordinary Convention held in Detroit, Michigan. I have handed in my resignation to the Executive Council and to the Hon. Marcus Garvey to take effect as from August 15th. As you well know when, as Chairman of the Committee of Presidents, a Committee formed to protect the interests of the members and to see that those at the helm made their exit without injury to our Association, I was elected First Assistant President-General, I stated that as soon as the Hon. Marcus Garvey had selected, as he intimated he would, my successor, I would be ready to step down and return to my substantive post as head of the Philadelphia Division. The past fifteen months have been very strenuous ones for the Association, beset as it has been by unscrupulous enemies who stopped at nothing in their effort to disrupt and embarrass the organization. My labors night and day have taken serious toll of my strength, the great responsibility which I have had to bear has begun to weigh very heavily upon me, and in the interests of this great Association of ours and of my health I am compelled to give way. From the 15th of this month I shall cease to be Acting President-General, but I shall continue in the fight as earnestly as when I was at headquarters, my loyalty to, and love for, the Association and its great founder and leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the same as ever—100 per cent. Keep the fires of African Redemption burning, is my parting message to you. From Philadelphia I shall endeavor to set the pace for other divisions to follow, and I know Philadelphia will not fail. The path to the goal is of necessity arduous, but with determination to accomplish and with good will toward each other and cooperation and harmony enthroned we shall win. Men may come, and men may go, but the Universal Negro Improvement Association, under the leadership and inspiration of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, will go on forever. HON. E. B. KNOX APPOINTED PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PRESIDENT-GENERAL This is to make known to all divisions and chapters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that I have appointed Mr. E. B. Knox, President of the Chicago Division, my personal representative, who will convey, my instructions to the various branches from time to time. Mr. Knox will shortly make a tour of several cities in the interest of the Association, and the Negro World in particular. It is my wish that every courtesy be extended to Mr. Knox as he proceeds to carry out certain plans formulated in the interest of the Association as a whole. I desire that he be given your heartiest cooperation. we to do? Since consituted authority, Federal and State, cannot of will not defend Negroes from the mob. Negroes must trust in God and keep their powder dry in defense of themselves, their wives' and their children. There is no alternative unless we are simply willing to massacre The Negro has done his share in obeying the Christian this movement which he has fanned into flame can never perish. The immortal germ of the Garvey movement, so-called, diffuses changes in leadership or the mistrusts of organization. Our faith in the man, our faith in his leadership, our faith in the ultimate realization of our hope is second only to our faith in God "Watchman, what or the night?" "The morning cometh," answers Garvey. Our critics wonder at our faith in Garvey. Some are, even now, asking, "After Garvey, what?" But Garvey is still a living force so be reckoned with. He is not dead by any means, and there are thousands of his apostles preaching the "Gospel according to Garvey." No man has yet spoken to us like this man, insinuating pride and nobility of race, and pointing out to a discouraged and, downrodden people the morning star of Hope. Plea for Marcus Garvey "And as I have done before, so at the opening of this convention I miske my plea at the bar of an enlightened public opinion for Marcus Garvey, God's nobleman, a man of intellect, despite Kelly Miller's judgment that he is 'half-educated', a man of superior vision, the Watchman to whom it has been given to visualize the only permanent and ultimate solution for the ills of the Negro peoples of the world Before Garvey, what? Yes, before Garvey appeared on the scene we turned to other Negro leaders, and cried, "Watchman, what of the night?" What answer had they for us? Nothing, and the night continued. And because Marcus Garvey, believing with all his heart, and soul, and mind, in a great destiny for the Negro, but only in the Motherland, Africa, and preached the new Gospel with his matchless eloquence and characteristic fervor, converting thousands to this cause of "Africa for the Africans," he committed the "unpassable sin," and forsooth, must language behind prison bars. I plead for the man; I plead for justice in his behalf Negro Must Fight Injustice The redemption of Africa and nationhood for our race in the Motherland fire, however, matters for the future to work out. Meanwhile the Negro must fight the conditions that confront him where he lives at present. While trusting in God we must keep our powder dry. We want white America to know that while, we shall never allow ourselves to be led into armed insurrection against our, white fellow citizens, we mean to defend ourselves from the mob spirit by keeping our powder dry. It is the only argument which the mob heads. Nothing is being done to stop lynching. The President is silent and ingestive, Congress is unsympathetic, and white Christianity is inkwarm.

THOUSANDS ATTEND MASS MEETNIG IN SHRINE OF NEGRO LIBERTY Members from Nearby Divisions Join New York Hosts in Making Opening Meeting Memorable—Spirit of Unity Is Stressed Encouraging Addresses Delivered by Hon. F. A. Toote, Hon. E. B. Knox, Hon. F. Levi Lord and Others Members Urged to Press On to the Goal NEW YORK, Liberty Hall, Sunday Night, July 31.—Liberty Hall held a capacity crowd tonight on the occasion of the opening meeting of the Local Convention. The weather, after the heavy rains which fell during the afternoon, had completely cleared, and when the executive officers, attended by officers of the legion, and the chair marched in procession to the rostrum, the hall was already filled in spite of the fact that there was an admission charge. Hon. Fred A. Toote, Acting President-General, occupied the chair, while with him on the rostrum, were Hon. F. Levi Lord, Chancellor; Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, President-General; a number of officers of various divisions, and visitors who had been given seats on the rostrum. The meeting opened with the singing of "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," followed by the President's hymn. Then followed a concert program of exceptional merit, special features of which were selections by the Universal Band, which, under Bandmaster Hassell, gave an excellent account of itself, anthems by the Universal Choir, several contributions by the famed Pennsylvania Porters' Quartette and two soprano solos by Madame Fraser-Robinson, delivered in her exquisite finished style. The last named took the opportunity to mention she would be leaving shortly on another concert tour of the West Indies and South America, by request, music-lovers there having made an appeal for her return which she could not ignore. It is no exaggeration to state that Madame Fraser-Robinson belongs in the front rank of vocal artists and further brilliant successes are doubtless in store for her. MR.

It will be a good work to cultivate the necessary disposition — good for our young and aspiring physicians, who are rapidly increasing in number each year, and good for the needy Africans. It is planned that in time a well-appointed medical department shall be a fact in the educational scheme of the Universal Liberty University on the James River, to help meet the needs of our African brothers for educated physicians and experts in other branches of mental and industrial training, but this must be a matter of slow growth, while the need is now and will continue to grow, and can well be supplied in part from the army of educated Negroes who are annually graduating from our schools. The question is one that should command general attention, and we hope that it will. ITALY GOES RATTY By Amy Jacq Italy is like a girl for adventure, who his strength, will without thinking of Mussolini, the Dicomated Italy, and many plans for a revival splendor of the old real idea behind people in a frame queues. The count BEATEN AND FORCED TO SELL HIS FARM THERE have been so many floggings of white persons, some of them women and youngsters, in Georgia, Florida and Alabam, of recent months, as to attract the attention of the thoughtful people of the country in a more general way than did the flogging, lynching and burning of Negroes in the same States covering a long period of years. When those in authority, wink at, or take part in, violations of law and legal process in the case of white persons the time is sure to come when outrages on white persons will occur. Disregard of law and legal process works that way, and it is good that it does. There can't be one law for the white man and another law for the black man. The late Dr. Booker T. Washington never enunciated a greater truth than that one In the alleged purpose of regulating the morals of white persons, white persons have kidnapped and flogged a great many white women and their children in Georgia and Alabama recently, and it has aroused the "good white people" and those in authority to get busy and do something about it. Concerning these outrages the New York World, which has rendered such splendid service in giving publicity to mob outrages and prison abuses in the South as practiced upon unfortunate Negroes, has the following ringing editorial article: "Solicitor James Davis of Jefferson County, Ala., shows the right spirit. He is putting forth every effort to indict and prosecute the men who flogged a Negro farmer to coerce him into selling his land for one-sixth its value. Threatened with violence unless he dropped the prosecution, he has promptly summoned the authors of the threat before the grand jury on a charge of attempted intimidation. "This is a spirit which is more and more in evidence among public officers in the South, and which properly supported by public sentiment, will effect a cure for mob violence. The prosecutor of Toombs County, Ga., early this year checked an epidemic of floggings by masked bands when he obtained numerous indictments and five convictions in one batch. Not long ago officers in Florida fatally shot several members of a mob which was trying to seize a prisoner and lynch him; last year officers at Dallas killed five men who were trying to lynch two Negroes held in jail there. In recent months a North Carolina court has given sentences ranging up to thirty years to members of a mob which had mutilated a prisoner. "If honest and vigorous public prosecutors did not so often face the active opposition of community opinion the task of stamping out mob violence would be far easier. It is impossible for justice to rise above its founcainhead. The lynchings in Aiken, S. C., aroused the shocked indignation of the best people of the State; when John G. Richards became governor he denounced the outrage and did his best to expose justice; the county solicitor laid full evidence before the grand jury, and Judge Johnson in his charge called vigorously for action. Yet majority sentiment in Aiken was indifferent and the jury refused to find a single indictment. As the Spartanburg Journal has just said, "law and justice were outraged" and yet "the craven, cowardly band who perpetrated this infamy are immune to constituted authority." The case of Arthur Hitt is not an isolated one; such cases have been and are common in the Southern States. A Negro, say, owns some land which a white person wants. The Negro refuses to sell, as he does not care to part with his property and because the price offered him is always far below the value of it. He is threatened and warned, and if he does not give in, he is kidnapped and flogged and forced to sacrifice his property for a third or less of its value. Seldom do prosecuting attorneys take an interest in such outrages and seek to bring the offenders to justice. All the more credit is due, therefore, to Solicitor James Davis of Jefferson county, Alabama, for the interest he has taken in bringing the Hitt case before the grand jury, and his refusal to be intimidated into dropping the prosecution of the case. If there appears to be a more general sentiment in favor of law and legal process in the Southern States, the fact is due to the prevalence of late of mob outrages on white persons by white persons. Ever since the days of reconstruction the poor Negro has been robbed and lynchied and burned, and the legal authorities, far from seeking to search out the miscreants, have often been the leaders or members of the mob committing the outrages. At last, when the white mob turns on white persons in the same way that it has been dealing with Negro persons, those who administer law and legal process wake up and get busy. So runs the mad world away. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Residents of the Negro World are especially 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. THE GOOD OF THE ASSOCIATION WE can't any of us have things just as we want them to be. That is because there will always be much division of opinion where one or more are gathered together for any purpose whatsoever. It is human nature, and at its strongest human nature is a frail dependence in any time of trouble. Not every person can say in advance that he will be equal to the test to which he may be subjected in a given crisis. He believes he may be, and he wants to be, but he can't be sure that he will be. That is why so many movements fall to the ground which appear to have in them sufficient vitality to insure their success. It is only when a group of men determined to accomplish something sacrifice their personal ambitions and likes and desires that success is possible. The race which contains a sufficient number to form many groups in many undertakings, all looking to the same end, and in whom the spirit of co-operation has grown strong, is the race which has the greatest success. The same principle holds good in partnership co-operation as in group co-operation in corporations, which stretch out their tentacles in every direction to cover all of the interests in which they are engaged, so that often a monopoly is developed which defies competition. The commercial interests of the world have been developed to the highest point by this co-operation, and labor unions are learning and applying the same principle of organization and monopoly the better to serve their interests. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is intended to save Africa for the Africans and to preserve to the Negro people everywhere as far as possible and for their benefit, their social, civil and economic values. This is a very ambitious program, the ultimate success of which will turn upon the ability of the vast membership of the association to hold together and continue to function, whatever troubles and difficulties may confront them. Troubles and difficulties are made to be met and overcome. The ability and the determination to overcome them is really the answer to the question of the need of the organization to accomplish the desired objects. It has been sufficiently demonstrated that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has a great and necessary work to do, and that the membership is equal to the task of doing the work and will do it if they will stick together for the good of the association. It will be, well for the association if the spirit of this editorial shall animate the members as they are meeting the week in local conventions throughout the world—if the good of the association shall come first in all of the discussions of the members. The interests of the locals and the Parent Body are, in the last analysis, the same, and what benefits the one must benefit the other. By parity of reasoning, what injures the one must injure the other. President-General Marcus Garvey, the great founder of the association, will be buoyed upon east down in the misfortunes that hedge him about by the way the local conventions approach the supreme question of the good of the association. The future is full of promise, and we should all be animate with a determination to get the most and not the least out of the far flung deliberations of the locals of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.

AFRICA NEEDS EDUCATED PHYSICIANS AND TEACHERS AMAGEDONIAN cry for help comes from Africa to save the native people from the ravages of the many diseases to which they are subject. The demand for Negro physicians is great, and it is to be hoped that a sufficient supply will be available to meet it. That is a big hope, when the indisposition of the educated and professional Negro to tear himself away from the illurements of American and European life are considered. And, too, ignorance of the educated Negro about Africa and its people and their needs, is not the least of the stumbling blocks in the way of furnishing the African people with what they need. If you want to make an American Negro very tired, for example, broach the subject of Africa and its people and their needs to him. He is not interested at all. Youth asks for a square deal.

We reproduced from the Gold Coast Times in our last issue an article on the needs of the African people for proper medical men which should have a general appeal. It is true, however, that we have not enough physicians of our own to meet the requirements of the people, but that is largely true because our physicians shun the rural districts and congregate in the large cities, where the returns for professional services are greatest, and where all of them do not prosper as they figured they should; but the fact remains that we have physicians, or could prepare them to meet in part the needs of the Africans, if the disposition to do so were present among our physijelians to furnish it, and we do not think such a disposition We are all links in the great chain of humanity, we are in contact with each other, and we owe each other whatever we may have to contribute to the great whole.

Italy is like a growing boy, eager for adventure, who, in order to test his strength, will take big chances without thinking of the dangers ahead. Mussolini, the Dictator, has resuscitated Italy, and mapped out elaborate plans for a revival of the pomp and splendor of the old Roman Empire; the real idea behind this, is to get the people in a frame of mind for conquest. The country is being stifled and the people militarized so that when the call to arms begins, not only soldiers, but civilians, and even their private property will be under the control of the Dictator. Mussolini's word is law, and Mussolini means war, unless he can grab some territory by diplomatic maneuver. His first set to impress the outside world with his importance was his visit to Tripoli, carried out with all the military pomp and display of a triumphant General. this gained for Italy certain concessions on the Egyptian boundary. He is shrewd enough to have Italy well represented in Chinese waters by battleships and cruisers, so that if any spells are to be taken from China Italy will have to be considered in dividing them up. A few months ago there was a stir in the Italian states when the invoks up to and Italy arming the Albanians, and through some secret understanding Italy alone held the key to the Adriatic Sea. We may hear more of this later on, for II Duce can easily step from Albania over Grece' and into Turkey, which his alms to grab. Early this year Abysinia was aroused from her mountain fastness to hear that England and Italy had practically agreed to partition the country in two between them, without even consulting her, yet all of them are members of the League of Nations. The arrangement did not come to a head, as France led off by exposing the scheme, since she would not have benefited by it. Nevertheless, both England and Italy are using other methods to bring about the same results. We now find II Duce sending representatives to Abysinia in form with gifts for the Royal Family, and a subtle effort made to bring the Coptic Church of Ethiopia under the authority of the Vatican. Thus is the Roman Catholic Church being used by Fascist Italy to make conquests for her. In order to get some idea of Italy's warlike attitude, we quote from a speech delivered by Gabrielle D'Anunzio, warrior and poet: "Romana, hold yourselves in readiness for the time is at hand—the times to strike—but the hour is not yet chosen. It will come like a thief" in the night, and at the sound of the reveller the legends of noble Romana will spring up and the forests of payonets will march forward. : "Rome is the mother of Italy, from whom emanates the dazzling rays of progress, rehabilitation and expansion. Italy must expand or succumb. She will not succumb when there are lands that were once hers, that were, once made noble and glorious by the tail and by the guard of your ancestors. "Unfurl, therefore, the banner of Rome side by side with the emblem of the cross Go and occupy the serene fields and smiling pastures of Rome's lost province (Anatolia, which means the present Turkey) from the Aegean shores to the boundaries of Mesopotamia, from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean. All you patriotic sons of Rome, join the holy phalanx with one oath, one grim determination to attain that noble aspiration." We feel it our duty to inform our readers from time to time of the signs that make for war, so that when the war clouds, hurst and we are asked to fight to save "poor Italy" from the "barbarous Turk," we won't swallow such bunk, and waste our prejudice lives, as we did in the last war when we fought and died to rid Europe of the "brutal Hun." As soon as the Armistice was signed the "brutal Hun" was again treated like a gentleman, and our black American heroes were lynched, Jim-crowed and mistreated by white fellow-citizens of this "sweet land of Liberty." He who provokes war now should be prepared to fight by himself. -- HEALTH TOPICS By DR. M.

Room 607, 105 East Twenty-second Street, New York City. What are we going to assist in rescuing our brethren in the South from the jaws of paraphrase which hold them prisoners? It is true that we of the North, East and West are so self-centered that very little thought is given to their plight. Undaunted, hopeful, they are bravely fighting alone for self-preservation with those weapons of defense and that intelligence which best suit their case. This palpable indifference, this unsympathetic attitude would not be were we to interest ourselves wholesheartedly in the relationship which their peculiar problems bear to ours. The story of life in Dixie can never grow old. It is the biggest scar in American history. It is ever new and must be retold until the injustices and persecutions mated out to our brethren there are abolished. There’s an abundance of evidence to prove that the life of a Negro in Dixie means less to its government than the holl weevil. If a Negro attempts to assert his manhood in defense of his home and family, he is killed outright as an example to others. He is kicked about, whipped, and mercilessly persecuted for the fun of it. Negro women are cruelly abused and insulted at will, and there are cases on record, where Southern white men have lived in condescension with mother and daughters all at the same time Often when a Southern white woman thinks her angelic husband is at his desk in the office, or out of the city on business, he is in the "black belt" enjoying the caresses and affections of his colored common law wife, whose upkeep he insures through the maintenance of a special bank account. A colored female servant must serve both the domestic and sexual needs of her master whenever commanded to do so. The life of a dog, a bird, a rabbit, even a wild duck, is far more secure in Dixie than that of a Negro woman. These domestic friends of mankind can only be killed in season, but a "nigger" is only a "nigger," no laws are necessary to preserve his freedom, and any white man has the right to kill him, or his colored paramour whenever expedition demands it. If the whites were to build a wall 5,000 feet high to keep Negro men from white women, they would perforce have to build one 10,000 feet high to keep white men from Negro women. In some parts of Mississippi a Negro man dares not be seen in company with his own female, and just a few weeks ago in Raleigh, N. C., Prof. Albert Scott of Washington, D. C., and myself were shocked to hear a Negro woman tell a Negro man that she's not permitted to go with Negro men. Of course, the percentage of such outrages is greater in the rural communities than it is in the cities and towns. Negro farmers who are dependent on financial advances from white landlords are perpetual slaves. Most of them are successful but the landlord's system of exploitation is so perfect that they are always on the debit eld. Negro presachers must fit their sermons to their environment test they offend "the good white folks." Educational facilities for colored citizens are negligible, but the splendid example now being set by North Carolina is already being followed by other States and may prove the beginning of a remarkable era for Negro education in Dixie. Child labor, health and housing accommodations are problems which are far from satisfactory solution. There's very little freedom of speech and those who attempt to express themselves freely must leave town upon invitation. The Negro press seems to be the one torch of hope and salvation that not even intimidation or threat of death can put out. With but few exceptions our press in the South is fearless and uncompromising. But for religious worship and fraternalism, life in Dixie would be as barbarous as it was for the early Christians. And yet, in spite of persecutions, in spite of social extracism the Negro loves the South. His weather-beaten log cabin, his simple cottage with its dingling vine, his treasured farm by the wayside, the church where he holds weekly communion with his God, the old tumble-down schoolhouse, and the sparkling rivulet—these are the castles of his dream. To leave them he must shed a tear and returning cry again for joy. No one knows how God will use these hams of his to civilize the South. That He will use them is no prophecy. A race that signs amid the frames of apprehension and prays instead of fighting back—must have something of the spirituality of Christ, something of the divine virtue of Jehovah. One of the most sacred of unwritten laws of Bixie is, that so far as its humanity possible, no white man is to be convicted for an offense against a Negro," or to pay the full penalty of the law for his death, whether at the hands of a mob or through personal fear or prejudice; while nothing less than capital punishment must be handed out to a Negro for killing and insulting any white person. This is apparent from the rapidity with which the courts and juries deal with cases of this nature. Take two of the most recent; Raymond Bird was lynched in the Wythe County Jail at Wytheville, Va., Aug. 15, 1926, accused of criminal assault, although nothing was proved against him. From a State-county investigation to being the perpetrators of this cruel dead to justice came the indictment of one white man charged with being a member of the mob. After much delay he was brought to trial almost a year after the event took place. The jury returned a verdict of "not guilty," being out only ten minutes: McKinley Thomason of South Carolina, a mase lad of 16, was charged with the murder of Mrs. Frances Thomason, a 78-year-old white woman. Thomason was indicted, tried, convicted and sentenced all in one day, the deliberations of the jury lasting but 15 minutes. But good things do come out of Dixie occasionally. Besides the Inter-racial Commission, a few white women's organizations, and a few independent churches, the "Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer-Sun," and the "Norfolk Virginian Pilot," are two journalistic giants that are steadfast in their efforts to enlighten Dixie on the need for drastic reforms and improvement in the treatment of its colored citizenry. Just a few weeks ago Mr. Julian Harris, that brilliant editor of the Columbus Enquirer-Sun, in a speech delivered at the annual dinner of the North Carolina Press Association, made an impassioned plea for fearless editors. Among other interesting things he said: "The need for editors to print the truth, whether the facts are creditable or discreditable to their community or State, has never been greater than it is today. For whatever is false contains the seeds of its own destruction and whatever is true can not be altered by suppression. And never greater has been the responsibility resting on each and every editor, whether his newspaper be a country weekly with 500 subscribers or a city daily with 50,000, to do his full share toward ridding his section of the forces and ideas which are menacing its intellectual progress and spiritual growth, and making a loss of justice and a lie of liberty. Are you—each of you—honesty and without reservations of any kind, printing all the facts relating to every form of injustice which is calculated to destroy the happiness, limit the comforts, narrow the rights, or threaten the life or liberty of the people of your State? . . . Are you working for the welfare of the people of your town, whether against racial prejudice, religious intolerance or organized lawlessness? . . . Every editor must be sensible to the call of the weak, unmoved by the threats of power, aggressive against every form of injustice, masked or unma. ed, adamant under the pressure of intolerance and prejudice, and the champion of every effort to aid education and obliterate illiteracy." And now read this editorial from the Northeast Virginia Pilot for July 23: RICHMOND'S HUMILIATION "In the Grace Arents Library, recently added to Richmond's public library facilities by bequest of a public-spirited citizen, there is employed a $15 a week Negro janitor. The job is coveted by a white man. Four of the city's councilmen are in favor of pitching the Negro out and putting the white man in, and feeling, that way about it, have united to hold up an appropriation of $2,500 that is needed to finance the operation of the library until the first of next year. In order to force the library authorities to bond to their will. The library authorities decline to dismiss the Negro who has grown gray in the service and has a long record of duty faithfully performed, and the library faces a forced closing until endowment fund, not available until January it will make possible its operation free from councilmanio dictatorship. "That in a nutshell is the library episode that is causing Virginia's capital city deep humiliation. Every parson with civilized inmates must sympathize with Richmond in her four-councilman affiliation. What exhibition of rapacipunensis, race prejudice and political scollation could be cheaper, commoner or meaner? These are the little trynnies and petty skulduggeries that make bitter the relations between the races and mock the arrivings of the more enlightened Southern elements for a better and fairer racial adjustment. What a dozen inter-racial commissions laboriously build up in a year, four ward Tories tear down in a single poisonous hour. Isn't there some way to amputate men like these from public affairs and halt their destruction?"

'California Labor Man's View These romarks were somewhat bluntly answered by Paul Sharronberg, a San Francisco labes leader, who stated that it had been a mistake in the first place on the part of the diplomat to let so many Orientalists into the United States. He said that the entry of Orientalists had caused lower wages, but declared that the American attitude was not due to a feeling that Orientalists were inferior, but, on the contrary, that Orientalists were superior in such things as industry and thrift as exemplified in chances of living. He noted that under the laws of the United States, Orientalists could never become citizens, hence the problem of assimilation would always be great. He could see no advantage in talking of any compromise in Oriental immigration legislation, such as a quota ratio similar to that for European pennies.

Fourth, that disagreements arise not because of immigration restriction itself, but in account of the methods used. Fifth, that Japan favors being out on a quota basis under American law because such action would ease the psychological situation. Sixth, that Americans, believe it would be unwise to place Japan on a quota basis because it would revive the issue, with the possibility of even more antagonism. Seventh, that the Australians, from a standpoint to maintain a high standard of living, do not welcome the influx of any people except the English. Eighth, that Japan holds to a preference to be eliminated on a racial standard with Europeans, due to its comparable position with Europe in culture. Ninth, it was suggested that the present attitude of the nation concerned toward Japanese immigration was influenced somewhat by the experience of the United States in dealing with other non-European races such as the Nogroes and Indians. In the general opinion of the session, the best policy would be not to attempt any change in American law for some time, but to do all possible to promote friendly relations. British War Memorial Dedicated at Ypres TYPES, Belgium, July 25—A British Empire memorial to 88,000 sons who died in the war and whose graves are unknown was dedicated here yesterday by Field Marshal Lord Pliquer. It is in the form of a huge arch at the Menin Gate, leading to the "Hell Fire Corner" of the Flanders battlefield. The ceremonies took place in the presence of King Albert of the Belgians and thousands of war pilgrims, many of them wives and mothers of the fallen, who came from every corner of the world. They were of a simple nature, with a brief military demonstration by a Belgian corps under the command of the King himself. The memorial, a massive stone affair, was erected jointly by the Governments of all the British dominions and colonies. ITALY WOOING (Continued from page 3) essive Abbasinian bishops have been appointed by the head of the Coptic Church in Egypt, and in the old days wars were fought to sustain his authority. Early in the sixteenth century, unknown to the authorities in Egypt, a mission was sent to the Vatican, and later the Portuguese mission succeeded in having André de Oviedo sent as the first papal nuncio. This was done, however, without any attempt to dispute the authority of the Coptic hierarchy in Egypt. The epistles came in 1504, when the king of kings made full submission to Rome, was deftened, and, plain by the army of the Coptic, who even expelled the Society of Jesus, the Portuguese priests who had succeeded in bringing many parishes under Rome, and firmly re-established the authority of the Patriarch of Alexandria. As there is no longer any Conti army to fear, individual parishes have from time to time offered obedience to the Pope, particularly since the price of a bishop furnished by Caliro has been deemed excessive. Recently Rome asceticised, urged on by the Faselista Government of Italy it is said, have deemed that the time was ripe to make an attempt to win back the church in Abysinsia. In the past, many missionaries have sought to do what "Abbe Brucard" seems to be on the point of accomplishment. Seventy years ago Michael Ghebye became a martyr in the eagles and was recently elevated to alter honors by Pope Plus XI. The Regent Has Tafari has great respect for both the Quirinal and the Vatican. In spite of objections from Cairo he permits the Abbasian church to use native missionaries trained in the Abyssinian Ecclesiastical College of Rome, and is said to be ready to enter the fold of Rome just as soon as a sufficient number of parishes acknowledges the Pope, so as to make objections from Cairo of no great importance.

They are a proud and sensitive race and values highly prestige abroad and self-request at home. The welfare of the Filipinos, perhaps their very existence, is dependent upon protection by the American army and navy and upon free trade with the United States. "An American Government General is necessary to protect American interests, for we cannot assume responsibility for the Philippines without the necessary authority." "The real political issue in the Philippines is rarely made entirely clear. The American Presidential system has been imposed upon the Filipino people by the Jones bill, while they clearly prefer the British or parliamentary system where government is carried on by a committee of Parliament. Favors Naming of a Premier "It is suggested that the Governor General should appoint a Prime Minister, who should select his cabinet from members of the Legislature, to hold office during its life. Ministers would be bound to resign after votes of lack of confidence by the Legislature, but it would be dissolved at the same time. This important modification is to prevent the factional disputes and frequent changes of ministries which afflict many countries with the parliamentary system. "Numbers of the Legislature would hesitate to overthrow ministers, as this would bring on a campaign for their own re-election at the same time." "This system would give the Filipinos complete control of their domestic affairs, which is what they need and want." The Filipino have a just grievance, not in apprehension by the United States, but in neglect, the President and Congress have been too absorbed in other affairs to give constant attention to the details of Philippine administration. "It is proposed to create a Philippine Commission in the United States, with judicial and not administrative powers. The chairman should be a United States judge, appointed by the Chief Justice of the United States. There should be a Filipino member elected by the Filipino Legislature, while the American member should be appointed by the President, of the United States, with the consent of the Senate, from persons who have had at least two years of business or administrative experience in the Philippines. "This commission should decide all differences of opinion between the Filipino Legislature and the Governor General. INDIAN SCHOLAR SHOWS and nation has so taken possession of the mind of many people that they act simply as slaves to that ruling idea and are instrumental in making our human life unhappy. We will have to revert to that ancient teaching-given to our first human ancestor by the only Creator Himself; that the fountain head of all the Creation is One! The whole existence is based on a general plan. To our defective mind or limited vision 'it may appear to be defective or chaotic; but no man of broad vision has refused the fact that from a planet to a particle of sand all obey the same laws of nature. When we realize that general plan we see beauty everywhere. The most ugly man, according to the crude eye, becomes a symbol of the eternal life and Divinity. The throbbing of the heart creates a vibration which sends forth a wave of love all around. Love does not see into faces. Love is blind! Floor people who have no love 'speak' to the beauty of flesh. But true love unites individuals, blends nations and shuffles the go-called 'races and continuously gives birth to new children and new groups. Thus works nature. Individuals are simply used as instruments in the great program. Whatater we may think of Mr. Garvey at present. I am sure that in course of time his services will be appreciated by his worst enemy. Humanity will remain thankful for him because no individual of the black race aroused the dormant qualification of the race as he did. And his services will be more respected and honored when the hand of nature, working behind Garvey, is fully understood. Nature, having given birth to all men, naturally endeavors to keep our human race in good order. Our account of our individual short-sightedness we maintain our talents. We like children, out our fingers with the knife our father gave to peal fruits. However, just as our dear father constantly advises us to do this, and not to do that, nature through different individuals makes us active and broadens our viewpoint. All in all FILIPINO RULE Favors Naming of a Premier (Continued from page 2) dividuals, such as Washington, Lincoln, Lenin, Tolstoy, Gandhi, Gavrieve and many others, have done great service in fulfilling the plan of nature. Only two years ago, when I was traveling around the world for the third time, I came to know Ms. Gavrieve for the first time. I did not MONSTER NEW YORK MASS MEETING (Continued from page 8) saw and heard to join actively in this the greatest of movements. He also expressed the hope that the members of other divisions would go back to their respective communities better prepared in understanding and enthusiasm to carry forward the work. He then introduced Mrs. Laura Johnson, First Vice President of the Philadelphia Division, to address the gathering. MRS. JOHNSON'S ADDEHES Mrs. Laura Johnson said, "We are delighted to be with you in Liberty Hall, and this time we are not here with that fighting spirit we came with on a previous occasion, but we are here to show you we are in harmony with you and following after the principles of the Hon. Marquis Garvey, fostered by the Hon. Fred A. Teore. We will remember that just before the Hon. Marquis Garvey left us, we were esteemed on the prowess of the Lord, and if we were to succeed we had to go forward; that itself we went forward we would go on with the hope of a higher life, but if we turned back we would die. But I want to ramping you that not only will we die if we turn back, but if we stand still as well, because of the fact that the whole world is moving onward." In the great onrush of nations and races if we were to stand still we would be trapped to death under the foot of injustice, expression and outrage. And so my advice to you is, if you cannot go forward, at least mark time. But don't stand still. Mrs. Johnson ended with an appeal to her hearters to put down dissension as it reared to head in their midst and awarded hand in hand unitedly for the girl. MRS. ELLA McCARTHY'S ADDRESS Mrs. Elli McCarthy, first lady vice-president of the New York local, was next introduced by the chairman. She said all of them must feel greatly inspired to carry on the work with increased enthusiasm after the on-shrifting spectacle they had witnessed that afternoon. She referred to the parade when the legions, the Black Crogs Nurse, the Women's Motor Corps, the Engineers, the Juveniles and hundreds of members marched in the parade. He added that the banners and the portrait of their honored chieftain, again reminding this great metropolis and the world that Garvaryos was implanted in the hearts of black men and women to stay. Appealing to the men and women of the race to know themselves, she said sometimes she was forced to liken them to teams of mules which were harnessed and made to carry burdens at the will of men who were inferior in strength. If the Negro but knew his power, the things that rightfully belonged to him would be his overnight, so to speak. HON. F. LEVI LORDS ADDRESS Hon. F. Levi Lord, Chancellor, next spoke. He said: "Today we are all engaged in the furtherance of the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The year 1820, perhaps, saw the Association at its greatest peak in the city of New York, and today, 1927, we are continuing the same work in the city of New York that many saw launched over seven years ago. "There is one thought in the few minutes that I have at my disposal that I want to leave with you, and it is this: the Universal Negro Improvement Association is the greatest thing that Negroes have ever known, and the Universal Negro Improvement Association will remain as great as we SECRETS!

MILITARY many occasions to meet him intimately, but what little I saw of the man corrupted me that he wag just an instrument or God for a greater object. I was greatly impressed by his sinfulness and ingenuity for the so-called Negro race. And I must frankly admit that I did not find him much different in spirit either from Kemin or Kesler William, those two personalities whom I met before. Often people do not recognize the common talents of different individuals in different walks of life, and therefore garrish a great deal of the present-day confusion. But when people will develop the habit of recognizing the hand of nature behind all the great men whether doctors of literature or soldiers in the field, and begin to appreciate common qualities of people widely separated, we will begin to breathe and feel more harmony. Add harmony mean peace and happiness. I will in this He also member, back to he better and enthul- work. He Johnson, Philadelphia gather- here. want it to be. If we want it to be great it will be great; if we want it to be greater, it will be greater, and if we want it to be the greatest thing in life. in the life of Negroes especially, it will also be the greatest. If we want this Association to go up, it will go up, and if we want it to go down, it will go down. By our acts the Universal Negro Improvement Association will be measured. But let me say this in all sincerity: There is nothing that will take the place of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the hearts of the Negro peoples of the world, and it is the bounded duty of the Negroes of the world to carry on successfully and effectively the work of the Association. -Marcus Garvay "There, lies in Atlanta prison the Hon. Merup Garvey, the founder of this great movement. There is nothing that we do today, that we can do, for which the credit does not rightfully and fully belong to him; there is nothing we can say in praise of him and his work which he does not merit. He is away from us tonight, but our hearts are with him, and inspired by his presence, which seem to feel at this moment, let us go forward in the great work of African redemption in has set us to do." (Applause.) HON. E. R. KNOX ADDRESS Hon. E. R. B. Kupc: President of the Chicago Division, personal representative of the Hon. Marcus Garvey as President-General, was the next speaker. He was introduced by the Hon. Fred A. Toote and his status made known to the audience. "Mr. Knox said it was a great pleasure to be participating with the good people of New York in the wonderful demonstrations they had had that day. He was encouraged to see that they were still going onward, that they had not taken their eyes off the goal of Africa for the Africans, at home and abroad, and it was a wonderful achievement for Marus Garvey to have at last, after all the other fellowships had failed, centered the hearts and minds of the Negro upon the vital principle of nationhood in order that the Negro race might be freed from the shackles of oppression that have held them down so long. They must be free in their minds and they must be free in their thoughts. The Negro race constitutes a part of human society as other races, and the Negro should have his share of the world's goods. They had for a long time been preparing to die, but he had been told that as a man lived so did he die. And so it seemed that the Negro had to make preparations to live right in this world, and if they lived rightly they would die rightly.

Marcus Garvey instructed him to do and he was going to solicit and expect, and he was aids he would receive, the nearly cooperation of every member of the New York Legal and of the various branches throughout the country. HON. FRED A. TPOTE'S ADDRESS Hon. Fred A. Tpote, Acting President, General, was the last speaker. He said: "I want to speak to you tonight on the subject of Nationhood on the Continent of Africa as the only solution of the Negro Problem." I think it was in the year 1628 a slave ship entered the James River, bringing its cargo of human beings into a new world. They were met by the enslave and sold at the block; they were made to do the drudgery work of the nation for a number of years until God in His wise providence brought about their administration under the great President Lincoln. Time went on and each day the Negro looked out longing for the thing that would make him a real man, longing for the opportunity to enable him to breathe the free air and get some of these things that were in the possessions. A NEW ABOMINATION IN THE "FREE" NORTH A NEW ABOMINATION IN THE "FREE" NORTH Most Northern Negroes stay "in their phase." Yet even such perfect behavior is not enough to satisfy the American citizens of Seabright, New Jersey. In Seabright Negroes, descorpus or indescrous, are simply not wanted, and if they do not realize this, well, we have a John Hall story. About three months ago Hall opposed a Klan lynching of another Negro near his home in Smithfield, Virginia. Following this he moved. North to Seabright, hoping that he would be able to live peaceably. The Virginia Klan, however, determined his "crime" should follow him and they forwarded his Virginia "anti-lynching record" to the Seabright Klan officials. Hall then received a threat telling him to leave town; he stayed and received more threats. Gradually this...dures made him mores and miserably and, finally, solitely insane. The New Jersey State Hospital, however, refused to admit Hall because he was not a "legal" resident. Since the residents of Seaburgh did not want an insane man running wild in the community, there was only one thing left: Hall Halle. He was blind. This they were indicted to do, and now, having custed Hall, the Jersey Klan is happy. / And why not? It has discovered a new technique for getting rid of intelligent and outspoken and, therefore, undesirable Negroes - The Nation.

It could not be destroyed, he said, because it was built on agile rock. Garvey of himself did not build it. God gave Garvey the vision and he handed it on to his fellow man. After making an eloquent appeal to the membership of the Association throughout the world to saddlegate themselves to the carrying out of the program of the Universal Nakro Inx provement Association, Mr. Tosee sprang a supplain, announcing that as the rising of the convention he would relinquish his duties as Acting President-General. He had tendered his resignation, he explained, to take effect from the 15th of August. The announcement was received amid a rapt silence.

The members of the Negro race resident in Sydney paid a glowing tribute of their respect when on July 1 they marched side by side with their, white brethren in a parade to Victoria Park The Sydney branch of the U N I A. was well represented. The U N I A. band played an important part in rendering its share of good music. A float was made for the occasion and in the truck with it were seated-over a dozen Black Cross nurses. In the front of the float was printed the motto of the organization: "One God, One Aim, One Destiny." On the right side was printed a motto by our colored lawyer, F. A. Hamilton: "A United Canada Must Include All." On the left the motto of the colored doctor, A. Calder. "From a Confederated Canada Will-Spring a Confederated Emptys"; "Greetings from Sons and Daughters of the Cradle of the Empire" (the West Indies). Our sister branches of the organization were present, from New Waterfords and New Aberdeen.

The New Haven Division of the U. N'I A. and C. L. hold a mass meeting Wednesday night, July 20, at Masonic Hall, 76 Webster street. The Division also had the pleasure of having present Prof Caleb G. Robinson, president of the Universal Liberty University at Claremont, Va. The meeting was called to order by our president, Mr. Joseph Ward, by singing "From Greenland Icy Mountains," followed by our ritualistic prayer, led by our chaplain, Mr. James Allogn. The president at this juncture read the preamble of the constitution to the audience in order that those who were not members might understand more fully the aims and objects of the association. "Shine On Eternal Light" was then sung by the audience. The program was as follows. A recitation by Miss Sylvia Ward, followed by a very interesting address by Master James Joseph, subject, "Time" At this point Father Bowles, pastor of St. Luke's Church, delivered a stirring address, subject, "Perseverance" The next on the program was a duet by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Clark, "Arise and Shine, for Africa Is Awakened." The next was a recitation by the associate secretary, Miss Estelle Skinner, "A Psalm of Life" Mr. Mills, the general secretary, gave a short address encouraging the members, subject, "Opportunity" The song, "Father of All Creation," was then sung by the audience. Mr. Joseph Pemberton rendered a beautiful solo. Mr Ward then explained to the audience the inability of the Hon Dr J. S. St. Clair Drake to be present with us this evening, but in his place we are graced with the presence of Prof Caleb G. Robinson, president of the Universal Liberty University of Clarmont, Va. The audience then arose and gave Prof. Robinson a standing vote of thanks. At the conclusion of the introduction of Prof. Robinson he made a very fine address Prof. Robinson asked the officers, members and friends various questions pertaining to the organization and the Hon. Marcus Garvey The meeting, which was enjoyed by all, was then brought to a close with singing "Ethiopia," with benediction by the president, Mr Ward MISS ESTELLE SKINNER Reporter. TAMPA, FLORIDA Our regular mass meeting, Sunday, July 24, marked the formal coming out of our Black Cross organization. The meeting was turned over to them entirely Mrs Anne Sapp, genial and capable leader of the group, was mistress of ceremonies. She put over a program that was enjoyed by every one present. The nurses made a fine appearance Arrayed in their uniforms of spotless white, with the insignia of the order embossed in Jet black silk on sleeves and caps, they made an inspiring spectacle. The president, was supported on the rostrum by a battery of high-powered speakers who, after the program, made some convincing talks. Chief among the speakers, was the Rev. John Hill, a substantial colored citizen of Tampa and a former pastor, who is now engaged in active N. U. I. A. work. Wednesday night, July 28, was set aside for a final effort to raise the balance of our school fund quota. We are hopeful of going over the top. The Miami Division held its regular mass meeting on July 24. The service was called to order at 8 30 p. m by T.

M. A. FIGUEROA, Editor Mensaje de un peiodista, iaponés el negro americano. Manifiesta que el siglo veinte contemplará el enaltecimiento de los pueblos negros del universo. Ve la política inglesa interviniendo en el encarcelamiento de Garvey Tenemos gran placer en publicar el siguiente inspirado mensaje informativo, enviado al Negro World y dirijido al negro americano, por la pluma del Sr. Haruji Tawara, periodista japonés que forma parte del personal de correspondales actualmente en tornee de observación en el Brasil. Cuando el Sr. Tawara abandonó estas playas hara-cosa de un año, le era imposible al inteligente periodista el hablar inglés, y tuvimos que utilizar los servicios de un interprete en el interview que sostuvimos con dicho señor. El mensaje que se nos ha enviado esta escrito en inglés, y lo reproducimos al pie de la letra, salvo a pequeñisimas correcciones que le hemos hecho para que el contexto del mismo quede claró, sin desvios de lógica y gramática que to adulteren: Al negro americano: Pocos negros americanos saben algo acerca de los hombres de estado japoneses; pero la juventud japonesa conoce el nombre y la labor del Sr. Marcus Garvey. El siglo veinte no es siglo de la raza blanca; esta época pertenecce a los mil millones de raza de color que pueblan el planeta. Como verán ustedes, nosotros tenemos cinco grandes hombres hoy: El Dr. Sun Yat Sen entre los chinos, el Sr. Marcus Garvey entre los negros, el Sr. Zaglouhl Pasha entre los egipcios, el Sr. Gandhi entre los indus y el General Kemal Pasha entre los Turcos. Aunque el Japon es una de estas razas pigmentadas, nosotros no tenemos entre el quinteto mencionado de grandes hombres, ninguno que represente nuestro localismo racial. No obstante todo japones observa la labor de estos hombres. Negro americanos, 7 sabéis vosotros con cuanta ansiedad vuestros amigos los asiáticos esperan el éxito del garveismo? Fue siempre mi mayor deseo, antes de abandonar el Japón para los Estados Unidos de América, el visitar al Sr. Garvey en su oficina en la ciudad de Nueva York. Mas cuando bajé de un carruaje frente a la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra en el distrito de Harlem, y fui conducido al piso alto donde esta el mecanismo directriz y administrativo de la organización, me mostraron una silla vacia . . . el Sr. Garvey no estaba allí. Muy pronto me impuse de la verdad. El Sr. Garvey estaba en una prisión federal, simplemente por su labor en favor de la tierra de sus antepasados, labor esta que no agrada a la Cruz de San Jorge, y que la soberbia inglesa tiene que destruir a toda costa. Mientras todos los periódicos japoneses estan pagando huena suma de dinero a la Prensa Asociada, a la Prensa Unida, al Servicio Universal de Noticias y a otras agencias americanas de publicidad, para obtener una información correcta y detallada de la tierra de la libertad y democarcia, no le ha sido posible a ningun organo nipón obtener información acerca de la labor reciente llevada a cabo por el Sr. Garvey. Para todo japonés, el Sr. Garvey esta trabajando en pro de su raza en la ciudad de Nueva York. Ya se todo lo que se relaciona con el, y asf lo haré saber a todos los periódicos japoneses. Cuando realizo el Sr. Garvey esta en la penitenciaria por imposición de la Cruz de San Jorge, me hace creer tal acción que los Estados Unidos de America no han terminado su guerra de independencia, pues tienen todavía aquel poder detras de la república. Negros, tenéis que laborar mucho. No. debéis depender de ninguna nación blanca. Haced todo lo posible por que el Sr. Garvey salga de la prisión BRITANICA de Atlanta. No olvidéis que todas las razas de color en todo el mundo estan observando vuestra labor, aunque abiertamente no expresen sus sentimientos. Llevad vuestro honorable presidente Sr. Garvey a su oficina y sentadlo otra vez en su propia silla. El movimiento del negro proseguiría entonces hasta la proxima circunvolución. (Trabaiad fuerte, lovenes!) Mirad hacia adelante, amigos mlos! Soy uno de los pocos suscritores entre los japoneses que leen todas las líneas del Negro World. Yo puedo observar a ustedes por mediación de sus columnas. Si desea decirme algo o a los japoneses, escribid en el Negro World. En una carta que acompaña su mensaje, el Sr. Tawara dice que ha estudiado muy inteligentemente la "Filosofia y Opiniones de Marcus Garvey" y añade cuando vuelva al Japon el año entrante, traducirá al japones dicha abra y publicará un libro, de manera que todo el Japon sepa mas acerca de nuestro movimiento de emancipación. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1927 Spanish Section Una mirada sobre el amplio panorama de las relaciones humanas, no basta a determinar la verdadera causa del porque el honre no admitte totalmente, la razón de esturpar los prejuicios raciales. La compleja idiosincracia de los grupos humanos, subordinada a la discutible preocupación de castas, linajes, regionalismos e historia, hace menester una sólida y adecuada preparación moral y intelectual y, por ende, una total desprovision de abstractismo para hacer un juicio sereno y que de él se desprende un análisis, desde todos los puntos de vista de logica consideración en la cosa estimada. Razones circunstanciales y no avance de convicción modificada, atenuan la hasta ha poco lamentable forma de manifestarse el racismo. Y, bien entendido, modificada en su forma de manifestarse, pero esencialmente innable; hija, esta modificación, de razones materiales y estipulada dentro de una ananánea equidad, susceptible a varias formas de interpretación, y que no da pauta ni fija términos doude apoyar una opinión que no sea tan denil como la subsistente, que trata de determina la ausencia de razón racial en la obstetralización que se hace a la solución del problema de Africa, que la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto da la Raza Negra ha planteado. Gravita sobre la inconciliencia morbosa de los nucleos humanos el dolor de su opresión gime en la tenobrosidad de su marasmo el código de sus derechos, por la inercia de sus cobardias; tucha en vano el idealista, lanza el grito illuminado de su idea, y rielan los rayos luminos del pensamiento hasta la cima implacable del olvido. La indiferencia es la aliada fatal de la inconciliencia. El apostolado viril de los vidientes sucumbe ante la prédica falsa, de los levitas y fariseos; y una ola de desconfianza lame, con furiosio encontronazo, el faro ergudo en el puerto de la reflexion ante al mar tumultuoso y mugidor de las pasiones. El ave rapaz del latrocinio voltea sobre la superfície del planeta. Cuando su garra formidable se asienta sobre el suelo, oprime bajo planta poderosa hombre y tierras; a la tierra le extrae sus frutos y a los honibres su sangre. Los hombres sucumben; la tierra se renueva. Esa ave voraz posa su planta asoladora en nombre del progreso; es la civilización que mata y destruye, y llega para levantar un cementerio donde existió una aldea primitiva. Llega hasta nuestros corazones los gemidos del Africa, asolada por la rapífa de los aventureros que la civilización arroja sobre sus playas, y que llevan en su mente un ansia irrefrenable de despojo y un ideal despiadado de riqueza. Cruel destino el de nuestra tierra originari.. Todas desgracias de un signo fatalizado corren en densos nubarrones, para descargar su furia en ella. Debemos, contenplar impasibles, conio la quadafa de la conquista siega la vida de aquellos que, quizas, sean nuestros lejanos ascendientes? Esa siega es lenta pectiva; simula civilizar, pero la dorosa, la descarnida verdad es, que su misión es explotar a la tierra y a los hombres, a cualquier, pretio y por cualquier medio. Pretenos acepar sin un grito, sin una protesta, la repetición en el Africa, de los hechos de la conquista de Amorica? Será el destino de los hijos de Etiopia el de los Incas, Aztecas, Araucanos, etc., etc., primitivos habitantes de América, degenerados cuando no exterminados? Oh, dolor! Culpable impasbilidad. M. G. CASANOVA. Habana, julio 23 de 1927. Dificultades de dos enmiendas Dos leyes del congreso federal, añadidas a la constitución de la república, estan acarreando a los Estados Unidos no una series de dificultades y a sus functionarios una de mareos y dolores de cabeza, que no son para dichos. Estas son la ley de inmigración y la de prohibición. De esta ultima no nos ocuparemos, pues siendo de por si antipática y por demas escabrga, no ha menester que por amor de ella no marquen con la cruz negra en los archivos del Estado. De la ley de inmigración diferenes si, algo, muy poca cosa, a propósito de hechos palpitantes que mantienen en viva expectación la opinion pública, y—desde luego—refiriemos los hechos sin comentarios y alla cada uno discuta con su vecino lo que más acertado y prudente le convenga, ya sea en pro o en contra. Varios han sido ya los casos que han tenido que afrontar los funcionarios de inmigración que verdaderamente han necesitado la luz y potencia cerebral de un moderno Salomon, para resolverlos a gusto del consumidor. (y del consumidor que es el que más mal parado sala de todo este embroilo). Nuestros letores seguramente ya están in formados de múltiples y descenturadas personas que por arte de birthblroloque y las interilladas de la ley se han quedado en el mundo como el "judio errante" an encontrar un palmo de tierra que pudieran llamar su patria. De estos "casos" como los llaman fos jurisperitos y leguleys, el que tenemos en mente y lo ofrecemos a la consideración de nuestros pacientes lectores es el de la señora Peggy H. Kinley, nacida en esta tierra de Franklin y de Lincoln, de Lindbergh y de Jack Denney, nada menos que en el pueblocillo de Bennington, Kansas, netanente yanquo como no hay otro, hija de padre y madre norteamericanos, hijos estos a su vez de padre y madre nacidos en suelo estadounidense y asi sucesivamente hasta la cuarta generación. Ea señora Peggy H. Kinley es cludadana del Reno de la Gran Bretagna y no puede permanecer en el suelo sagrado donde se meció su cuna y se hallan los huesos de sus antepasados sino por una corte visita y si, dentro de unos cuantos días que se cumple su permiso no se muda para la nebulosa Albion o otra parte, el gobierno de su "expatria" la obligara a salir más que de prisa, ya esté respecto se la ha notificado ya y se le tiene en insta alojarla gratuitamente en Ellis Island hasta el momento en que sea "empaqueta" a bordo del vapor que la aleje de esta ingratas playas. El conflicto se ha formado a la susodicha Mrs. Kinley, por haberse casado con un subdito singles seis meses después de haber sido pasada el acta del Congreso (septiembre 22 de 1922), por la cual toda mujer noreaniteraica, contra matrimonio con un subdito extranjero pierde nacinoalidad débiendo seguir la de su marido (esto si la leyes del pais de este lo permiten, que es otro cuento). Ahora bien, sucede que Mrs. Kinley se ha separado de su esposo, reside en los Estados Unidos donde tiene su familia y sus negocios, pero las autoridades no consienten que las cosas sigan tranquilamente como al presente y con energía han notificado—como deciamos arriba—que abandone el suelo-que-cubre "la banidera de la libertad" tan pronto como el visa de su pasaporte haya llegado al limite del termino fijado a priori. Y, como se ha separado legalmente de su esposo británico, es claro que tampoco es ciudadana de Inglaterra, y mientras nosolicite naturalización en algún otro país que da como un amnee flotando en una atmosfera internacional, no quedondole otro remedio que hacerse la "sueca"", por más que el mero hecho de "hacerse" no implica que automaticamente pase a serlo de "facto". El caso que relatamos no es un caso aislado; son multiples los que se presentan a diario, dando lugar a escenas desgarradores en las que se ven hijos separados de sus padres, hermanos de hermanos, esposos de sus cónyuges legitimas, ciudadanos que dejan de serlo automaticamente y un desbarajuste tan grande que cualquiera lo arregla. Esto esperamos que dará motivo a los señores representantes y senadores, para estudiar detenidamente la dicha ley y sus efectos y consecuencias, y que en proxima reunión del Congreso discutan el modo de vivirlo. De otro modo nos encontramos en un país desde entonces son ciudadanos los griegos de la Octava Avenida, los italianos del "Ghetto," los chinos de Mott Street y los judios, "all over." menos los nacidos en fiera de Yanouilandia. No seria, pues, de extrafar la observación de aquelustrado viajero europeo que al referirse a Nueva York decla "Una gran ciudad donde conviven más italinos que en Romà más domenas que en Berlin más griegos que en Atenas y unos cuantos americanos para dar el color local."—La Prensa, N.

(From "The Black Man," published in and friends of Negro freedom BY WILLIAM W (From "The Black Man," published iv. 1883 and dedicated 'to the defenders and friends of Negro freedom and equality wherever found.') BY WILLIAM WELLS BROWN (Continued from Last Week) The plan of an insurrection was now formed in his own mind, and the time had arrived for him to take others into the secret, and he at once communicated his ideas to four of his friends, in whom he had implicit confidence. Hark Tarvis, Nelson Williams, Sam Edwards and Henry Porter were slaves like himself, and like him had taken their names from their masters. A meeting must be held with these, and it must take place in some excluded place, where the whites would not disturb them, and a meeting was appointed. The spot where they assembled was as wild and romantic as were the visions that had been impressed upon the mind of their leader. his bain, showed that he had lived with a cruel master. Nearly six feet in height, and one of the strongest, and most athlete of his race, he proved to be the most unfeeling of all the insurrectionists. His only weapon was a broadside, sharp and heavy. Nat and his accomplices at once started for the plantation of Joseph Travis, with whom the four lived, and there the blow was struck. In his confession, just before his execution, Nat said: "On returning to the house, Hark went to the door with an axe, for the purpose of breaking it open, as we knew we were strong enough to murder the family should they be awakened by the noise; but reflecting that Three miles from: where Nut lived was a dark swamp filled with reptiles, in the middle of which was a dry spot, reached by a narrow, winding path, and upon which human feet seldom trod, on account of its having been the place where a slave had been tortured to death by a slow fire, for the crime of having flogged his cruisel and inhuman master. The night for the megoing arrived, and they came together. Hark brought a pig; Sam, bread; Nelson, sweet potatoes, and Henry, brandy, and the gathering was turned into a feast. Others were taken in, and joined the conspiracy. All partook heartily of the food and drank freely, except Nat. He fasted and prayed. It was agreed that the revolt should commence that night, and in their own master's households, and that each slave should give his oppressor the death blow. Before they swamped Nat made a speech, in which he said, "Friends and brothers: We are to commence a great work tonight. Our race is to be delivered from slavery, and God has appointed us as the men to do his bidding, and let us be worthy of our calling. I am told to slay all the whites we encounter, without regard to age or sex. We have, no arms or ammunition, but we will find these in the houses of our oppressors, and as we go on others can join us. Remember that we do not go forth for the sake of blood and carnage, but it is necessary that in the commencement of this revolution all the whites we meet should die until we shall have an army strong enough to carry on the war upon a Christian basis. Remember that ours is not a war for robbery and to satisfy our passions; it is a struggle for freedom. Ours must be deeds, and not words. Then, let's away to the scene of action. Among those who had joined the conspirators was Will, a slave, who scorned the idea of taking his master's name. Though his soul longed to be free, he evidently became one of the party, as much to satisfy revenge, as for the liberty that he saw in the dim distance. Will had been a dear and beloved wife sold to the negro trader and taken away, never to be behold by him again in this life. His own back was covered with scars, from his shoulders to his feet.

It was then observed that I must spill the first blood. On which armed with a hatchet, and accompanied by Will, I entered my master's chamber. It being dark, I could not give a death blow. The hatchet glanced from his head; he sprang from the bed, and called his wife.

Defective education is worse than illiteracy because of its misleading effects. Diseased knowledge is poison to healthy brain or mind, therefore, we must discriminate and analyze all information submitted for our acceptance. Mr. George S.

A during its 'ten years of organization'? Is it possible that Mr Schuyler has acquired one of the three terrible "white-psychology" temperaments? (Since he refuses to view the world through black, red or yellow spectacles.) A sad and pitiful confession is herewith quoted. "I may not, as this gentleman says (referring to Mr Haynes), know anything about internationalism, but I know that Negroes in Africa have no rights of possession and almost no authority. . . . The day is rapidly approaching when millions will be compelled to reverse this opinion. In so far as the writer advises the Negro in America to "attend strictly to his business," there is no business paramount to that of racial solidarity and nation-building for the oppressed millions of black peoples. These are the very fundamentals of racial "business"; all other activities are auxiliary. And in many instances, fruitless and unprofitable ARTHUR S. GRAY. Oakland, Cal. American Negroes Want Garvey Back To the Editor of The Negro World. Marcus Garvey has declared that history is the landmark by which we are directed into the true course of life. He teaches us One God, One Alm. One Destiny. Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people. life is that existence that is given to man to live for a purpose, to live to his own satisfaction and pleasure providing he does not forget the God who created him and who, expects a spiritual obedience and observation of the world laws that, he has inspired In view of these sentiments, I think President Coolidge should recognize the manner of man who is leading eleven millions of the Negroes under his rules and give him back to those people. If the President will but heed the cry of millions of blacks, he will so prevent much future dissatisfaction among a large group of American citizens. ALFRED S BARNES San Blas, Panama. To the Editor of The Negro World: It is very gratifying to note that in the past few-months there is a clamor in the South for structural, businesslike co-operation among Negroes. In this wide-awake campaign, we find that class distinction is being ignored to gain the sympathy of the masses. The quicker that our leaders loose themselves from individualistic leadership and aspire to collective efficiency, then only will any progress be assured. We notice that whatever movement comes on the scene, with an object to elevate the minds of the Negro morally, financially and industrially is opposed. We should remember that we are living in a universe of evolutionary processes, and that achievements are accomplished in slow stages. The program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, fostered by the Hon Marcus Garvey, teaches us to be always alert, with "preparedness" as our watchword. It is no hidden view that GOOD LUCK QUICK THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1927 Wonderfully well built homes, large plot, six impresson rooms, sun parlor, breakfast nook, stairway to attic, tile kitchen, tile bath, shower, parquet floors, spacious closets, steam heat, beautiful electric fixtures, artistic decorations, hot water attachment to steam boiler, laundry in basement. We give our agents a very liberal commission. If there is no agent in your community, YOU can become one. For information write to CIRCULATION DEPARTMENT the economic condition of Negroes is at a crucial stage, and unless a general cooperative feeling be established, our success is doomed. We also find that the Negro intellectuals of today, with few exceptions, do not publicly acknowledge the program of this association, yet we find that they preach the principles as taught by our great reformer, Hón. Marcus Garvey. For instance, in the city of Mobile, about six months ago, one would be baffled to get in contact with this organization. We find today hundreds clamoring to the call of liberty and true freedom. Our people chiefly suffer from excessive emotionalism. They cannot meet emergencies well. Excitement has a tendency to hamper their judgment, but wherever the emotions unduly hold away, there will be no judgment to accompany collective action. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has issued a clarion call to all groups of Negroes, telling them to consider their future and help in the buildings of a Black Republic in Africa. S.E. BUCHANAN. New Orleans, La. Swat That Fly! To the Editor of The Negro World. Dear Sir, Let's not forget that one of summertime's menaces to health is the "common" fly. Momohartfly it may not be so annoying as the mosquito—but it may do more lasting harm than a whole swarm of mosquitoes. For health's sake, for cleanliness' sake, swat it! The fly is irritating. It feeds on refuse, and it picks up and carries unnumbered germs. As the season progresses, one fly picks up tens of thousands of bacteria. Keep it away from young babies particularly. But keep it away, too, from adults and from food. Perhaps no one thing is more important in mid-summer than this. The fly hasn't one redeeming trait. Screen it out. Use fly paper. Swat it!

In this day and generation the Negro will find that he must fight and die in defense of his life, his liberty and his happiness. Never again will the white man write out an Emancipation Proclamation for Negroes, whether by a Parlement, as Great Britain did, or by a President, as the United States did. The Negro must set forth his own Declaration of Rights, and be aggressive in its defense. "They who would be free must themselves first strike the blow." How much longer are these conditions which confront us to continue? "Watchman, what of the night?" I am convinced that the morning cometh. The night is dark, but thickest darkness is but the harbinger of daybreak. Aurora is harnessing her horses to her charlot, and before these speeding steeds the black clouds will be scattered and the morning sun shine forth in all his resplendent glory. And the factor which shall be most effective in bringing about this "New Day" for the Negro is the U N I A "A New Day and a New Freedom"—that is our objective. But we cannot obtain this New Freedom, or "Nationhood," simply by our penitential tears.
