The Negro World

No. 2 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 1927 PRICE: FIVE CENTS IN GENERAL NEW YORK TEN CENTS ELSEWHERE IN THE N.A.A. TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES Africans' Patience Not Eternal; Nemesis Coming In an article in the London "Star" Mr. William J. Clissold, of Bechuanaland, says: "When seated comfortably in an express train, have you ever speculated about where you might find yourself if the driver went mad, or the train were derailed? I have experienced such a sensation in Africa when watching a large body of natives working in the mines or at the docks. These sweating, multitudinous brown beings form the real power that enables white civilization in Africa to take its ease and advance in comparative luxury. But what if, one day, the same power were directed towards destroying, instead of supporting, white civilization? And what guarantee has the white man that it will not? Then the very skill and unity—Europe's magnificent gifts of Africa—will prove instruments of destruotion. "It is a thought to appal! "For Africa's strength is not her gold or diamonds, or ivory, but her people. We are extraordinarily slow to realize this simple fact. But gradually the worth of the native is dawning on the minds of many white people, and those who know him best are making the discovery first. The wisest magistrates, teachers and missionaries unite in praising the adaptability and capacity which given the chance, can turn an African, even in one generation, from a savage to a civilized man. "Probably such a phenomenon has never been seen before. I have talked to an African chief who might, but for his color, have been a member of Parliament or a diplomat. Yet his childhood was spent in herding cattle on the veldt. Imagine a Dorsetshire peasant being transformed similarly. "Undoubtedly we are increasing the efficiency of the African. But are we directing it aright? "There are roughly two policies held by the Europeans in Africa on the native question today: Development and repression. Both are generally held chiefly as a means to the progress of the European. Perhaps it is natural that the native sees them from a different angle. "I was present at a native debate at Cape Town when the opinion was expressed that the only satisfactory solution of the 'Native Question' would be the withdrawal of all white people to the place whence they came. On the other side I have heard extreme white 'Repressionists' seriously suggest that the only salvation of South Africa lies in the complete segregation of native Africans in the barren regions of the desert where the Europeans cannot live. "Even the new legislation, which is euphemistically known as 'Differential,' and which gives the Government the right to forbid natives to engage in skilled trades, is really repression in disguise." Lord Olivier's Warning And here it is interesting to read the quotation from a South African letter which Lord Olivier prints in his recent volume, "The Anatomy of African Misery": John Murray: "The attitude of the colonists is obviously suicidal. They rely solely on machine guns for their supremacy. All the labor of the country is performed by natives. The whites are degenerating very quickly; they have been morally defeated by the native's power of suffering, by his tenacity of life, and, lastly but most importantly, by his sense of humor." The concluding words of Lord Olivier's masterly study are also worth pondering: "If the attempt to maintain the repressionist and color bar policy is persisted in, it is not the natives that in the long run are likely to be defeated. It is not they, but the whites, that have shown the first symptoms of degeneration a degeneration entirely due to their own perverse social theory. The native remains robust and virile, he can live on much less than the European, he increases faster in numbers. He is at present desirous and disposed to adapt himself to the life of the European community . . . but, although his patience is being it is not likely to prove eternal in the fact of the repressible policy of which the Color Law is to punish in a declaration." a: + Aiea de st a an RR el ats : ” ane ea Sica eds ce Bo ante se LF _ Ba rae Sesame sth cmt, ye ®ve A “— gi sr ss = eaeee ea Bin, sil oe tecte e wg Toe tg te nee Rh cee are ee Asal ¥ a ot ee : er 7. piaed a ee oP a ga Se TL Fee ely ‘ ise : AE PE Se Bh aN ah ote 3 ria ke 2 a lids 43 Wak eee. 7 Ce ea RE err ee ei To etctl Be ee tee a eT Te ain 7 a ke dil: wart rm ae Seer pene: Sy eee We RO PRESS.

The Ufe of the man, it urges, is worth more than the merciless process of exacting from him, at the possible cost of his life, the remaining term, and observes that the case of the great leader is an opportune one for the exercise of the Presidential pardon: (Prem the Atlanta Independent) ‘Wearty three years ago Marcus Gar. vay entered upon a privon term of five Pears for violation of a federal law. -@arvey had been an carnest and sin- “eere tadivigwal amd, even though a @venmer, he was a capable leader In Speetring the confidence of tye people.

NEGRO WORLD UNIQUE; ONLY RACE CHAMPION LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, Aug. 21.—Tonight was Negro World night, the night set apart for the launching of a campaign to create a Negro World Expansion Fund, a fund authorized by the Hon. Marcus Garvey himself. Earlier in the evening a splendid meeting, arranged for the self-same purpose, was held under the auspices of the East Brooklyn Chapter. At this meeting Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey, wife of the President-General, was the principal speaker, and she made a profound impression as she gave in her telling fashion the reasons why the Negro World should be supported by every member of the organization to the limit of his or her resources. Twenty-five cents admission was charged at the night meeting and a gratifyingly large crowd was present when the proceedings began. Hon. F. Levi Lord, Chancellor, made the opening remarks and introduced to the gathering Mr. T. Thomas Fortune, Editor of the Negro World, the dean of Negro journalism, who, he said, would take care of the program. Mr. Fortune thereupon introduced Mr. E. E. Mair, Business Manager of the Negro World, upon whom has devolved the task of arranging the meetings and insuring the successful launching and maintenance of the campaign in New York and univirons. Mr. Mair read the splendid article on the Negro World, written by Mr. S. A. Haynes in his column, "Through Black Spectacles," in last week's issue, after which the speech-making followed, interspersed by several musical contributions. Mrs. Ulric Hassell was heard to advantage in a contralto solo, the Universal Band accompanying. Little Miss May Martin acquitted herself very creditably on the piano, while the band and the choir rendered two items in excellent style. EXPANSION FUND DRIVE THE NEGPO WORLD appeals to its many readers and well-wishers for donations toward a FUND to be created for the purpose of meeting certain specific obligations and for extending the paper's usefulness to the race. THE NEGRO WORLD is, and has always been, the ONLY paper devoted SOLELY to the INTERESTS of the NEGRO wherever he may live. IT IS YOUR PAPER; therefore, it is for YOU to support it. All moneys received will be acknowledged and the giver's name published in the columns of THE NEGRO WORLD each week. MR. L. SCOTT'S ADDRESS Mr. L. Brett was first called upon to speak. He asked to be excused from making an address, stating that he had just returned from a tour of several divisions and had had a motor car accident, from the effects of which he had not yet fully recovered. He was pleased to be able to inform the members in New York, however, that the work was proceeding very顺利 in the field, although built in water mark. He also desired to state that the observed importance was attached by all the divisions to the drive that had been started in the interest of The Negro World, and he predicted for it unqualified success. PROF. WILLIAMS ADDRESS Prof. E. R. Williams followed. He said he had received two invitations to speak that evening—one from the Niles asking him to address the welcoming delegation and the other to speak in that hall in behalf of The Negro World, and he could not but ENJOY to thank Liberty Hall to do what he could to point out to his fellow members the transient importance of The Negro World in the life The Negro World was conceived by a man who came out of the ranks of the masses, by Marcus Garvey, who, in so many words, had said, "Give me freedom, read the Negro World, and I will civilize the white press of the world." The Negro World was not a paper that sought advertisement in order that it might live; many times it had to reject advertisement out of defiance to the high purpose. The Negro World was devoted specifically to the interests of black men and women, and it should be a pleasure to every right-thinking Negro man and woman to give his penny, his dime and his dollar so that this newspaper, which was fighting the battles of Negroes, whether members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association or not, should live and go on to new and greater success, proclaiming the gospel of Carveyism, painting the race to real freedom, real emancipation, real and lasting happiness. He knew of no other paper in the world which compared with the Negro World. Scandal bad no place in its pages, nor robbery nor murder. It was concerned solely and exclusively with the uplift of the race and it deserved the unstinted support of the race. MR. E. E. MAIRS ADDRESS Mr. R. R. Malk, Business Manager of The Negro World, was the next speaker. He began: "My share will be to say in a few words what Mr. Garvey told me to tell you when I recently paid a visit to him. These meetings are being held on the direct instructions of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. He ordered me to arrange certain meetings in and around New York and, on this occasion, he gave a message to be relayed to the people regarding his wishes and desires in connection with the paper. Now I shall endeavor to tell you what he told me, not in his own words, but in my own words in the form of a little talk entitled 'Propaganda.'" Equest of Propaganda Proceeding, Mr. Mair said that afternoon he was over in Brooklyn where a meeting similar to the present one was held, and there was something which the Vice President of the Brooklyn Chapter said which struck him very much, and that was when he referred to the part that propaganda played in the World War. He spoke of how the Germans at one crucial point in the war, on the front that separated the German and Italian lines, caused German airplanes to fly over the Italian lines and drop posters with disrupting propaganda printed in Italian, and of the demoralizing effect this propaganda had on the Italian soldiers, to the extent that many of them held down their arms, turned tail and ran. Now, the same thing that applied in that particular instance applied in a larger and more general From data no division or chapter of the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall entertain and pay any money to anyone claiming to be a field worker, officer, commissioner, or other representative of the Parent Body who cannot show credentials signed by Mr. E. B. Knox and countersigned by me as president general. This step is taken to counteract the present mood of speakers who are collecting funds from the divisions in public without making any report of same to the organization. MARCUS GARVEY. President General, Universal Negro Improvement Association. Aug. 13, 1927. TELL THE NEGRO WORLD WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THIS ELOQUENT PICTURE EUROPE INDIA CHINA U.S.A. sense to the propaganda that was being waged against the Negro and in the Negro's favor. The propaganda being waged against the Negro was for the most part being waged by the large white newspapers and, to a lesser extent, by newspapers of the race. Propaganda was being consciously waged to discredit the Negro, to bring him into disrepute and so eventually to destroy him. The Only Offset After referring to some well-known devices by which the white press sought to make the Negro self-deprecative, Mr. Mair proceeded: "Now, to meet and combat that propaganda successfully. It means you must wage a successful counted propaganda of your own. That counter propaganda is made to some extent by Negro newspapers in this country and elsewhere in their application to local affairs in the communities where they are published, but where we get the very peak and summit of counter propaganda to meet and offset the disrupting propaganda put out against and about us by the white newspapers is when we open and read the pages of the Negro World. (Applause). Teacher and Defender "What is the Negro World? I ask the question, and I will answer it myself. The Negro World is the only newspaper that the Negro has ever started that exists for nothing but the serious purpose of bettering the race nationally and in every other sense; it is the only newspaper that devotes itself entirely to the purpose of building up the Negro's manhood, of building up his racial pride, of winning for him the only thing the Negro never thought of until the Negro World started to teach him—I mean by that, Nationalism. Physical Power "I know, you know, we all know after these years of conscious propaganda on the subject that the only true remedy for the life that we suffer is to get power. Power is the only thing the world responds. Not merely industrial power, but power in the aggressive, brutal, physical sense, the power to hit back when you are hit, and the Negro World in the only journal that has ever come to the Negro peoples of the world and told them to get that kind of power." Mr. Mair concluded an address that was much appreciated with a reference to the words of Mr. Harry Johnson, British imperialist, who has deserved well of England for his work in Africa. He mentioned the warning the late Mr. Harry had given England to the effect that it was only a question of time, and not a very long time at that, when Africa would see the birth of a powerful Black Empire; that it was an idle dream for them to imagine that Africa could ever be subjugated and dominated entirely in the interests of white men. That was heartening news, the speaker said, especially coming from such a man as Johnson, and it should encourage every member of the Association, every Negro with red blood in his veins, to go forward in the fight, supporting his greatest offensive and defensive weapon.

EXPANSION FUND DRIVE FOR THE NEGRO Table readers of The Negro World—and all of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association should be readers of it—will permit us in this editorial way to direct their attention to the Expansion Fund Drive notice published in the last issue of The Negro World and signed by Marcus Garvey as managing editor and E. R. Mair as business manager. An appeal is made to the readers and well-wishers of The Negro World to contribute generally and liberally to a fund to be created to meet certain specific obligations and to extend the usefulness of the paper. There should be a general and generous response to this appeal. The needs of the paper are many and urgent, and its obligations have to be met promptly. Cash is required. Credit does not go far with satisfying the claims of those who produce the newspaper. And producing a newspaper has come to be a very costly business. The most has troubled in the past ten years. Think of it: Printers and pressmen and mailers and postal charges and the editorial and business staffs are expensive wage-earners and producers who have to be paid each week. If they, are not paid promptly there will be no paper issued. It is that way in all newspaper offices. A great many readers of The Negro World and a great many agents are in arrears in their payments, and their failure to make good is a positive drawback and hindrance to the proper issuance of the paper. All such persons are requested to send what they owe the paper to the business manager at once. Think of this fact and act: What would the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association do without The Negro World? Well, if you don't buy it and pay for it, how can you have it and read it? Back up the Expansion Fund Drive of The Negro World with each LIBERIAN PRESIDENT AND "AFRICA FOR AFRICANS" NEGROES everywhere are interested in Liberia on the West Coast of Africa and its present and its future. It was established by American white philanthropists as an asylum for Negroes scattered in the Christian nations without their consent to be servants and underlings for white people base enough to enslave others while demanding the largest freedom for themselves. There is nothing of the doctrine of brotherhood which approves of slavery for the benefit of others. However, men twist it to serve their selfish purposes, the New Test of Men aims to equalize social, civil and economic values and to encourage democratic government, self-determination by the governed, as opposed to the rule of the master and the government of the lord without the consent of the governed. Civil tyranny and industrial servitude are equally repugnant to the higher and better standards of living and striving, but mankind is but little further removed from them today than it was when John was beheaded for protesting against corruption in the administration of the State and Jesus was crucified for denouncing and protesting against corruption in the administration of the Church, of the priesthood. Liberia was established as a protest against slavery, whether those who established it had that fact in mind or not, and as a refuge of safety for the Negro who was free enough at least to determine the sort of government under which he desired to live and had the courage to go to it and develop with it as a pioneer. The early settlers of Liberia were drawn from that sort of Negro. That more Negroes of the United States, of the West Indies and of Latin America did not avail themselves, when slavery no longer existed among them in the countries of their exile, to go to Liberia and help in establishing a permanent government of their own, is an interesting story by itself. Only a comparatively few Negroes went to Liberia when slavery prevailed in the Western Hemisphere, and fewer yet have done so since the abolition of slavery. There must be reason for this indifference on the part of those whom it was designed to benefit. Only some 50,000 Negroes constitute the citizenship of Liberia, the privileged few who went as pilgrims and polygoras from the western countries, while there are some 2,000,000 solves who remain untouched, for the most part, by the government of the 50,000. This fact may explain why Liberia has stood still and stagnated instead of moving forward and prospering as the United British and French colonies have. For many years Liberia has been ruled by Mr. C. D. B. King. He is currently re-elected President. His opponent is contesting his election, demanding wholesale corruption. President King is visiting Liberia with his family and an extensive staff, although Liberia has been occupied so far indeed, and President King has not been able to do so. He has been visiting in England, and Mr. King has written an article in the London Daily Mail in which he described Liberia are landed, for British purposes, in the country and asked why? Mr. Leguila explains as follows: Mr. King, the President of Liberia and one of the ablest representatives of the Negro man, who for the last few years directed the demission of his country with great common skill and ability. He has not only secured considerable financial assistance from American and other sources, but he has also shown great wisdom in withstanding the advances of such unstable political leaders as, the American Negro, Marcus Garvey, who wished to make Liberia a gateway into Africa for the dissemination of his doctrine of 'Africa for the Africans.' If we keep the truth and know Know the actions we do And the bitter things we do Understood the law and know Would the spirit eternal suspense from I wonder, just the same? Should we help where we now hide Should we pity where we blame? Ah! we judge each other harshly, Knowing not life's hidden forces Knowing not the sound of action In less turbid at its source; "Dr. King realized that the safety of Liberia as an independent State depended not only upon the willing co-operation of American and European capital in the development of its resources, but also upon the friendship of the great colonizing Powers. All the golden grains of good! And we'd have each other better If we only understood. "Liberia is the one country in Africa in which the United States has considerable economic interesta Bound to America by sentimental ties going back to the middle part of the last century, when the influx of freed slaves first began, close relationships, religious, political and economic, have since been maintained; so that today the Christian Negro population of about 50,000 looks largely across the Atlantic for its inspiration, and in this respect differs considerably from the neighboring British colony of Sierra Leone, which is entirely British in its sentiments. Could we judge all deeds by motives That surround each other's lives. See the naked heart and spirit, Knowing what spur the action gives. Often we would find it better Just to judge all actions good; We should love each other better If we only understood. —Rudyard Kipling. HEALTH TOPICS "The visit of President King to this country will serve to strengthen our interests and to promote a closer understanding between Great Britain and one of the smallest members of the League of Nations." By DR. M. ALICE ABBERSON Of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association And that's the milk in the cocoanut. Of course, President King would be acclaimed in England as one "of the ablest representatives of the Negro race," because he opposes Maccus Garvey's program of "Africa for the Africans," which runs against the program of "the great colonizing Powers." Mr. Lewis does not know whether Mr. Garvey is a citizen of the United States or a British subject, but he does know that Mr. Garvey's doctrine of a Negro State in Africa for Negroes and the conservation of the Negro's social, civil and economic values for the Negro are things which Great Britain and the other European colonizing Powers regard as dangerous; and so President King is acclaimed and lauded by the British and the other colonizing Powers as a friend and ally, while Mr. Garvey is regarded as a dangerous foe. Let it go at that; but we think a majority of the citizens of Liberia favor the Garvey rather than the King program, and regard his alliance with British plans and American capital as dangerous to the liberties of Liberia. "Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad." If You Would Live Long- "Vacations are for city folks but holidays are for everybody." says the "Christmas Seal Doctor" in the Kansas State Tuberculosis Association Health News Letter. This advice may well be taken to heart by everyone. All of us, whether we live in cities or in the country, need rest from our regular work and the round of routine jobs to be done. If we can't get a regular vacation, then we need holidays when we may get away from our work and find rest and recreation in some sport, such as fishing. It is particularly important for those of us who work for our living in the city to get away from the noise and bustle and tension of city life for a week or two every year. We need vacations. Our bodies need rest and relaxation from their daily work. Our minds and nervous systems need recreation and change. GOVERNOR WOOD'S DEATH AND THE FUTURE OF THE PHILIPPINES Take a vacation every year. You read it. You must have it in order to keep your body up to par physically and mentally. You will find that you return to work in better condition, feeling more able to do your best at your daily job. You will keep your general resistance high, so that you will be less likely to fall an easy prey to disease. You will be doing much to help yourself live to a "ripe old age." MONDAY evening, August 1, the editor of The Negro World listened to an eloquent recital by a distinguished Filipino of the history of the Philippine Islands and the struggles of their people to be free and independent, before the Council of the Institute of International Relations at International House, Riverside Drive, in New York. The speaker, Mr. Roderiguez, laid great stress upon the struggles of the Filipino people to be free when under Spanish rule and then under American rule. According to him, they had never been satisfied under foreign rule and never would be, the predominant hope and aspirations at this time being to be free of American rule. We were impressed with his statement that Governor-General Leonard Wood was the most hated of all of the rulers the American Government had placed over the Filipino people. Get a vacation at least once a year for health's make as well as for pleasure. 538,000 Entered U. S., Record Number of 11,562 Deported Last Year Since Mr. Roderiguez's address General Wood died suddenly in a Boston hospital. He had planned to return to his work in the Philippines, although there was a square issue drawn on him and President Coolidge as to the wisdom of replac- iministration of Philippine affairs on a civil rather . itary basis, General Wood favoring the latter. Genera had a very turbulent administration of Philippine a. Filipino legislature opposed to him and his policies, a generally believed that he would resign his high posi this country. The announcement, after his recent vis- dent Coolidge in the Black Hills, that he would nbt would return to the Philippines after medical treatmen short stay in the United States, created much newspaper go WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.—Less than a third of the more than. 538,000 immigrants admitted to the United States last year came in under the quotas and, owing mainly to this fact, the alien population of the nation was larger by 254,493 in the fiscal year ending June 30, or about 16,000 more than was the case for the previous year, Commissioner H. E. Hull said today. Allen departures numbered 1,508—73,566 emigrant and 180,142 emigrant. For 88 percent of the newcomers ar., continued the commission from ten countries. Canada, ing 81,506 immigrant allens fiscal year 1927, led the list, Mexico with 67,721, Ger- Irish Free State 28,054. It is highly probable that President Coolidge will appoint cessor to General Wood who will carry out his policy of dising the War Department in favor of the Interior Department control of Philippine affairs. In this policy the ultimate independence of the Islands will be a leading rather than a subordinate policy to an indefinite occupation with-military rule, which appears to have been the aim of General Wood. And that would not meet the demands of the Filipino leaders for the immediate independence of the Islands. American business interests have grown very strong in the Philippines during the past twenty-seven years, and they hoped to enlarge these interests by the rubber development which has been much discussed, and to continue the military policy to safeguard these interests, with General Wood as their ideal leader as a military ruler. The Filipino people should be great gain by a change of policy such as we hope the successor of Gover General Wood will inaugurate. "While the permanent immigration for the year just ended shows an increase of 20,657, or 10 percent over that for the previous year, when 304,-488 immigrants entered the country, the bulk of this increase came from only two countries, namely, Mexico former, 67,721 immigrant in 1927, as against 42.2 increase of 24,405, or the case of Italy, the or 109.6 percent, was of veterans of the seir wives and children and children of itens; immigration jumping from 8,252 1927. r of deportations 62 aliens having the United States residings. This is nearly 7 percent, a water mark of local year 1928. r for deporta- without proper entries, 5,444; chases, 1,525, usually defective. ARE THE PROTESTANT CHURCHES LOSING THEIR VANTAGE? THERE has been a great stir in church circles by the announcement of the continuation committee of the Inter-Church Conference, held in Philadelphia, and made public by the officers of the Preabyterian Church in the United States of America, that there is a failing off in church membership in Protestant communions of some 500,000 annually. "In thirteen communions with a grand total of 15,160,170 members," the report summarizes, "the losses aggregate 268,065. As the total of Evangelical membership is upward of 29,000,000, the total yearly loss, if other communions besides the thirteen were included, would approximate about half a million." UP er an easy convived great dif- ferent who leased g his best grumphs, tive him- it is good ver. The was and mind bull- telling can be it. If gives me to quail. Through hunter and hunted to be abused, here is good sympathy in his hope: "In the full sunlight circumstances. I have put forth our old albeit: During the following of days, my husband has satisfied." Catholica Votes. All sorts of explanations of the decline are being made and plans are being perfected by the churches concerned to stem the tide of decline, and the outcome will be watched with interest by that body of people who believe that the hopes of mankind are wrapped up in the success or failure of the Protestant churches of the world. It should be noted that the decline in membership of the Protestant churches in this country and in Europe is coincident with the falling away from the teachings of Jesus in the matters of brotherhood, of covetousness and moral laxity. Disharmony in business relations and in the conduct of governments one towards the other, disregard of the "Subboth Day to keep it holy" and the moral laxity and vulgarism which have crept into the life of individuals and of nations, by the rule that subtlety on the one hand and might on the other justifies any wrong doing, would account for the decline of church membership and the influence of the churches, if these concerned but knew it. You can't eat your spiritual or your material pie and have it. But mankind cannot be made to understand that it is even so. The hardest year of his enemy Litchi Mignon Arvandi Garvey behind the prison walls of Imperialism. Historians will call him one of the greatest minds that ever denied a prisoner's garr. Garvey retained a nightly vigil in Africa, the pride of black men, and started out to lay the consequences before the hammer of the Red, the Black and the Green, with the slogan, "Arvandi for the Afrikan—those at home and these abroad," ringing around the world. Then the Voyeurism of diplomacy behind the siege of Ibn of Ibrahim, and some Garvey was wading deep within. His body was scarred, but not his soul. Today his enemies know that Garvey lives unafraid of the future. From his prison cell he can see them preparing the screws. One of less courage would give up the struggle, but Garvey is not afraid of the crucifixion—African must be saved, and he even welcomes it. Squee call him a fool. If he is, then he will not seem to forgettum. Garvey's imprisonment is one of these errors for which society punt pay, and pay dearly. You can't kill an ideal by persecuting the idealist. Garveyism is not dead. It is rising up to plague its terminer. It is reaching out into new swells. It is walking up and down in the hearts of black men, women and children everywhere. Wherever the black man makes his roadside, Garveyism now engages his serious attention. World pence is not being enhanced by Garvey's imprisonment, and if he dies as a result thereof, the consequences are too great to contemplate. Long live Garvey! Long live Africa! What Have They to Say? We have heard credibly from those who opposed several if not all phases of Mr. Garvey's program for the solution of the Negro problem. The press, the pulpit, citizens and organizations prominent in the life of our group have been outspoken in demanding the release of Mr. Garvey from prison and accustoming the importance of his leadership. Among the latest to add their voices are Dana William Pickens, Prof. Wm. H. Perris and the Afro-Americans. But the following are nototently silent: The N. A. A. C. P., Chicago Defender, Pittsburgh Courier and the Equal Rights League. Why? Will Mr. Du Bois and the Pan-African Congress take cognizance of Garvey's imprisonment? If so, in what respect? Five Pitiful "Bullets" The five most pitiful rulers in the world today are Fund of Egypt, Machado of Cuba, Berno of Haiti, Dias of Nicaragua and the King of Liberia. Officially one is a king, each of the others is a president of his country. In reality they are mechanical dolls, moving to the push of a button. Like children, they must be told where to go and when to go; what to say and how to say it; what to do and when to do it. They are the choice of the people before whom they go, accompanied by imposing bodyguards. They have but one annual report, summoned up in these words: "The country is prosperous, my people are happy, and we are grateful to you for your assistance." The following reports from the Afro-American concern a speech delivered in England by the Hon. C. B. D. King of Liberia. From the London Evening News: "... My own country is exceedingly happy. There is no rent to pay and few social troubles. The workmen are to work for a shilling a day and to retire to their farms every three months of the year to gather their crops of rice. ... I am working for the Liberian nation, not for the black race. The black race was there before Liberia. (Compare this point of view with that of a very distinguished friend of President King who deserved some years ago: "I am a Frenchman first and a Negro afterwards.") It is a thing indestructible, is this black race, whereas the nationality of Liberia needs fostering and developing, and with its advancement the black race automatically advances. "I am for keeping the young colored man of my country at home." And for this the News calls Mr. King a philosopher. From the African World: "We are not associated with any movement (Garvey) toward antagonism or driving foreign races out of Africa. ... It should not be forgotten that we are Africans and attempting to build up a Negro nationality. Liberia represents an effort on the part of the Negro towards self-government. We are not expected to duplicate Europe in Africa. ..." The Devil An Angel Must Be If this coward, this blundering weakling is a philosopher, then the devil is an angel. England and France delight to honor such a puppet, while taking pride in the persecution of real men as Mahatma Gandhi, Zailgul Pasha and Marcus Garvey. But Liberia shall not perish. The days of those who enslave her are numbered. There are now in the making hundreds of leaders who shall trample their Mug and others fated. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS If we have whispered truth, whisper no longer; speak, as the tempest does, sterner and stronger. Speaking out is in order NOW. No more whispering or sidestepping TRUTH. —National Baptist Union. When a man is elected to an office through the manipulation of influence, there is always a question about his freedom to act contrary to the opinions of that influence. In fact, there is a tacit ownership on him, an obligation to his benefactor that influences his conduct without much regard for his own opinion of conscience.—Birmingham Reporter. green fields, pick flowers along the way, and refresh themselves at sparkling springs, and when they find once more the beaten trail their step is lighter and the heart sings.-Atlanta Independent. Love of work is possible either in digging ditches or sculpturing eternal marble, but good work is only possible from men and women who make play of their work. To the eye and ear it seems paradoxical, but the mind has long conceived that human beings who make play of their work play less at their work.-California Eagle. We have consistently urged that many features of native religious observances are not only harmless but worthy of preservation, since they have been developed to conform with the natural surroundings of the people; and we are glad that this view is claiming increasing support. - Gold Coast Times. El Hon. Fred A. Toote ha presentado la reunión de su cargo como presidente general interino de la organización, la cual tuvo efecto el día 15 de los corrientes. Vivimos en medio de una interminabla cadena de cambios; pero doquiera no haya cambios no habrá progreso. Una fecha memorable. Importancia que ella revista. La previen de la injusticia mundial. Nuestro programa y sus enemigos. La initacion es la mas sincera de las aduaciones. Nuestro objetivo es cuestion de lucha y perseverancia. Asi acontez requiramente con la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. Ella tiene que seguir adelante, cualesquiera que sean los cambios, para llevar a vías realizables el gran propósito que patrocina. Con la reunición del Hon, Toose, quien pone como excusa su estado del salud, resultado de su ardua labor como presidente general interino, el Hon, E. B. Knox, presidente de la division de Chicago, ha sido nombrado representante personal del Hon, Marcus Garvey. El miércoles 17 del presente agosto, fecha memorable para todos los que constituiimos e impulsamos la nueva orientación del negro moderno, complió el Hon. Marcus Garvey el cuadrigésimo año de su natalicio. Los miembros y amigos leales de la organización sintieron indescriptibles emociones varias a medida que la fecha se aproximaba, y no era para menos dada la importacia que ello reviste para nosotros y para el martir, que de una manera estóica sufre los aguijones de la perfidia y la traición, en una celda de la penitenciaría federal de Atlanta. El Hon. Knox es una persona capacitada y un miembro entusiasta de la organización, quien induciblemente obtendra la coperaación de millones que creen en el Hon. Presidente General y desanque que su política prevaleza en la dirección de los multipes asuntos de la institución. Sedantes raptus de felicidad, bastante orgullo en el hombre martirizado y un poco de amargor por su persecución y por debajo de todas estas tentaciones se siente, a la verdad, algo de nostalgia por la ausencia de aquel que no se encuentra entre nosotros, y que lo consideramos lo basante distanciado de nuestro ambiente para impulzar el magno moviliento que tan noble y sinceramente el limpirara. Este movimiento de progreso tiene que continuar su marcha, hacia la consecución del objeto para el cual fue creado. Mas que un deseo, debe ser considerado un deber el cooperar activamente con aquellos a quienes se les ha confidado autoridad, para encarrier por buena senda el destino de los pueblos negros del universo. Dobemos considerarnos felices ante todo, porque Dios nos ha permitido mantenerlo vivo un año mas; porque el es la figura de inspiración de millones de negros que miramos hacia el como furo luminoso en la roca de la incertidumbre, que nos hic la guiar a puerto seguro donde encontramos la rehabilitación humanista a que somos acreedores como maz, como pueblo, como nación. Debemos estar acongojados y heridos en lo mas intimo, porque nuestro cosazones han sido ton torturados por la aita presión de la injusticia mundial, pues lo que ya se destila es amarguras y dolores cruentos por lo inconsiderado del ambiente que nos rodea. Los extranjeros y las leyes J. J. Davis, Secretario de Trabajo, se balla tomando medidas para la expulsion completa de todos los extranjeros que han entrado en el país ilegalmente. El actia en los informes que ha recibido de las fragrantes violaciones de la Ley de Immigración que se acentuan cada vez más. Una de las medidas que se propone el Secretario de Trabajo en conseguir del fuerza y de las industrias principales la cooperación necesaria para que ningun extranjero pueda entrar al servicio del ejército o en fabrica alguna sin presentar su documentación complete. Nos sentimos solos, porque nos hace falta el levanta piento espiritual conque nos comfortara la presencia del leader en nuestras filas; y nos sentimos taciturnos porque no sentimos el poder y elocuencia de su voz, la cual nos laca solar, nos hacía esperar y nos animaba a trabajar mas, si desacamos estar libres de la maldad y tropelias de que somos recipientes. Davis está siguiente un plan empleado por Henry. Ford desde hace tiempo en la solicitud de empleados y obreros. El fabricante de automóviles, exigie a todo el que les solicita trabajo, que presente las pruebas de su entrada legal en los Estados Unidos, de su intención de permanecer en el país y de hacerse ciudadano. Otro año ha pasado con sus vanas esperanzas, sus incertidumbres y sus desiluciones. A este tiempo el año pasado esperabamos obtener lo mismo que esperamos a la hora presente; pero los férreos portales de la prisión han permanecido inhiestos sin girar sobre sus goznes, inmutables a las aclamaciones de una gran parte de humanidad que aboga por el hombre martir, y esta es la hora que no se nos ha devuelto el tesoro que guardan esas pesadas puertas de la prisión. Se rumora que la actitud del Secretario Davis al declarar la guerra a los "perniciosos" fue alentada por los sucesos desarrollados en relación con el caso Saco-Vanzetti. Los funcionarios en Washington aunque manteniendose apartados del asunto han sido alarmados por los desórdenes generales resultantes del caso. Eliminando a la mayoría de los extranjeros que han entrado ilegalmente en el país se espera que los extremos radicales se calmen. Mas todo no es tristeza y congojas. Alguna compensación han tenido los amigos de Marcus Garvey, y esta ha venido de una manera peculiar. La prisión del hombre ha venido a tener un efecto sorprendente en todos aquellos elementos que no forman parte de la organización. Los que le amamos hemos tenido la fortuna de vivir para oir de labios de sus mas encarnizados enemigos, cantarle las mejores lisonjas por su obra constructiva. Vemos con placer que aquellos que se burlaron de su programa, han tratado de moldearlo para darle al mundo una copia del mismo y debemos aquí punctualizar que "la limitación es la maa sincera de las adulclaciones." El Secretario dijo que aunque no habia modo de determinar con exactitud el número de extranjetos entradas ilegalmente en el país son muchos miles y entre el número de esos que han violado la ley, hay indudabamente muchos radicales. Miles entran por la frontera de Mejico exadiendo la vigilancia de los guardas de la frontera y cientos, tal vez miles, entran en los Estados Unidos y se quedan por medio de la Ley de los Marineros que les permite estar en el puerto de desembargo por secreta días. Muchos entran en autoservil por la frontera del Caradá y otros muchos vienen en embarcarciones pequeñas de las Antillas perdiéndose después en el interior de los Estados del Sur. Nosotros hemos sido testigos de meetings en clertas ocasiones y sittos, do se han reunido negros y hemos oido los mensajes inspirados, conferencias y disertaciones de otroa labios y otras plataformas, donde Marous Garvey jamas hubiese sido permitido para exponer lo básico de su programa. El garveismo, llamose así o por cualquier otro nombre, es el tópico en la orden del fila entre los negros. A medida que pasan los años la obra se extiende y el deso de Garvey se va materializando y cumulando. Un expecto del periodismo Sagún ciertos diarios, el señor Mussolini ha hecho una excepción con la señora Sarfatti, complaciente en el libro en que esa escritora narra la vida del famosa gobrienta y manifestando públicamente su complacencia, porque le permite verse "en el tiempo, en el espacio y con relación a los acontecimientos." En general, Mussolini, al decir de los diarios italianos y de la susodicha escritora, no siente el menor placer al ver reproducida esufig en los diarios ilustrados ni ensalzada su obra por las hojas más o menos oficiales. El laudatorio es criterio, ó, mejor, en es de alabar ese buen gusto. En este particular, los diarios y revisitas italianos no parecen dispostos a respetar a-todo trance ese gusto del "duce", ni parece que se reebelda en este punto sea motivo de graves diagustos. Causa de ello es principalmente la simpatia que el "duce" siente por es agente que la ha creado, formado y lanzado a la vida pública: por el periodismo. "Sabéis cuanto respetel el periodismo es que lo omo lo he demostrado—decia recientemente—. Lo que unicamente deseo es que el periodismo se de cuenta de ciertas necesidades y de ciertas fatallades históricas. Deseo que el periodismo colabore con la nación." Deseos analogos han existido en gobernantes de un tipo semejante y en otros opuesto al del "duce" italiano; pero se ha entendido de muy diversas materas la forma de llevarse a cabo esa colaboración. Precisamente una de las formas que con más constancia ag han visto favorecidas ha sido la que menos agrada al presidente fascista; esto es: el aspecto gráfico de los diarios. Guillermo II, por ejemplo, era uno de sus más fervoros partidarios, y, aparte del placer que le procuraba el ver reproducidos en las páginas de los diarios de más circulación las encases de su vida cotidiana, el Kaiser* manifesto alguna vez que consideraba esta forma de publicidad como un gran agerife de cofesión monárquica, como una fuerza política de primer orden y como una forma moderna de escribirse la Historia. La literatura panegirica tenia a sus ojos un valor semejante, y veia, al decir de quines le conocian intimamente, en las meladas columnas del "Lokal Anzeiger" un testimonio del ejercicio del Poder, vinculado ya en el, ya en los demos miembros de la Familia Imperial, ya en sus ministros más favorecidos. Su situación actual no ha entiado ese criterio, y se recordara la serie de incidentes a que dio lugar el que una casa americana "filmase" al Kaiser bajo todos los aspectos de su destierro, incidentes que obligaron a la casa cinematográfica a desearuir su cinta. El lector cotidiano, que e ve desfilar ante sus ojos, dia por día, una, dos, tres, veinte fotografias de todos los momentos, de todos los rasgos, de todos los aspectos de la vida pública o privada de sus gobernantes, no se da cuenta de la p. oderosa labor de infiltración, de "pe netración pacifica", que el diario i lleva su animo, llegando a imponer, en la gran mayoria la idea infuja de que la realidad del moment posee un arraigo immutable.—El Sol, P.

Russell, and, after the preliminary arises, the acting chaplain, Mr. C. A. Gordon, gave his religious discourse. At this s. a. the chair was turned over to Mrs. Ethel Campbell, lady president to conduct the balance of the meeting which was under the direction of the Women's Department.

Webley and the president the meeting came to a close in the usual form. The blessing of God continues in this locality with the gentle showers of rain on the thirsty fields around. The small settlers who on a small basis have started agriculture so as to combat hard conditions existing, are axed filled with hope of the future's bright prospect. The luxuriant green fields of corn, potatoes and melons in full bearing may give much encouragement to others to follow this model example of launching out for independence, though not on an elaborate scale. On August 7 the Florida Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association had a pleasant evening service. The meeting was well attended by the general public and all were much satisfied with its appropriate program. Mr. B. A. Martin, president of the division, was chairman, and he opened the meeting with an address on "Freedom." FLORIDA, CAM., CUBA The choir opened the program with an anthem.

The true hearted Gervarey rallied to their cause. The chaplain, Mr. J. Ewen, was master of ceremonies and he took his lesson from the book Iamiah. The front page of the current issue of The Negro World was read as usual and the choir opened the program with an anthem, "Sweet is the Theme." Receptions were given by Miss C.

CON. ADJ. LOWLTT, Reporter. NEW ORLEANS, LA. The Universal Negro Improvement Association of New Orleans Liquidator held a spendid mass meeting on Sunday, August 7, at 8 P. M., which was the continuation of our local convention. The usual opening order was conducted by the chaplain, Mr. S. A. Jones. The program was rendered as follows: Opening remarks by the president, Mr. John Cary, Jr.; Negro World, read by Miss Ida Volllone, also motherland, "Africa"; selection by the choir, entitled, "Relojo"; introduction of the visiting delegates from the Order of Good Samaritan in the person of Mr. C. Dwyer, C. Kud, M. Francis, also Mr. H. Moore, vice-president of the National Business League for Negroes; short address by Mr. Francis representing the order; he stated that, the order could not possibly be divided from the U. N. I. A. owing to the principles that they represent: the president announced the death of one of our members, Lesley Wells; address by Mr. H. Moore, after which he joined our ranks as a member; a brief outline by the Rev. William Dixon of his visit to our chief and the inspiration gained therefrom; a representative of Lincoln Lodge spoke in brief as to the greatness of the program of the U. N. I. A. and Marcus Garvey; offering announce- SOLVE THIS PROBLEM What will become of the Negro one hundred years from now if he does not become a powerful national unit? Will he allow himself to become a victim of the white man's system of economic exploitation? Will he continue to laugh the time away until the crisis comes, then in despair will the surviving members of the race commit race suicide by miscegenation? These are the questions that are agitating the minds of thoughtful persons, and that is why we want you to get a copy of "Africa for the Africans," written by Marcus Garvey, so that you can get a perspective of the future and prepare for the changes that are bound to come. Vol. I, $1.75. Vol. II (with 25 illustrations), $2.00 Combined after, $4.00 Large Size Pictures of Hom.

P. Thompson, of Algeria, subject. "Man, Know Thyself," after which he made a special appeal for Garvey's Day Fund, and a liberal amount was raised; recital, "The White Man's Game," by Miss Ida Vollson. Too much cannot be said of the manner in which Miss Vollson mastered the 70-verse poem written by our esteemed leader, Marcus Gavney, while in Atlanta. The audience was held spellbound for forty minutes listening to our little genius. It was followed by great applause; the president lauded Miss Vollson for her splendid composition in the recital of the poem. A special offering was lifted by the Universal African Black Cross Nurses for our deceased friend and brother, Wells' family. Mrs. Jane Fikes, of Meridian, Mississippi, delivered her farewell address and urged the members to carry on until our leader comes back to us. The meeting closed in the usual manner with benediction by the chaplain. On Monday night the subject for discussion "The Educational System of the Negro in This Community," was discussed intelligently by Misses Doris Burch and Lillie A. Jones; Prof. I. S. Chambers, Mr. H. B. Gilbert; the New, James Reed, and Mr. Samuel Smith. Every delegate spoke in the support of Liberty University and a resolution was drawn pleasing continued support. The usdii closing order ensued. On Tuesday night, Prof. I. S. Chambers, Mr. S. Smith, B. E. Gilbert, J. A. McCoy, T. P. Thompson and Mr. H. Moors were the principal speakers in the discussion. Mr. Moore represented the National Negro Business League of New Orleans. Thursday night we were blessed with the presence of Mme. M. L. T. Demec, the International Organizer of the Negro Peoples of the World; every one present was enthused at her inspiring and broad views of the U. N. I. A. she expressed them. Mme. Demec brought to us greetings from the Northern communities. On Friday night Mme. Demena was the principal speaker. She spoke of the principles of the organization, and the necessity of sticking to them instead of personalities. Let us keep our private affairs out of the organization. Through telegram to her, Hon. Marcus Garvey had sent his best wishes to the membership. "Let us lay aside the weights that so easily beset us and run with patience the race that is set before us." After a few remarks by the speaker, the membership then moved that a subscription to the Times Picayune and a purse be sent the Hon. Marcus Garvey for his birthday from the New Orleans U. N. I. A. Mme. Demena than informed the audience that a special meeting would be held on August 17 at which time she will speak. Her number impressed the audience with the necessity of supporting LIBERTY UNIVERSITY and THE NEGRO WORLD. Mme. Demena then ended her discussion in a climax on Atlanta being the most famous spot in America today, because it houses the greatest Negro the world has ever known. The doors were then open for new members. All joined heartily in singing, "All Around the World," which was followed by the Ethiopian Anthem. Benediction by the chaplains, Mr. S. A. Jone. L. A.
