AMELIA SAYERS, BOX 22, STATION L, NEW YORK CITY I am glad to report to you that, with the grace of God, the Universal Negro Improvement Association of the world is going forward under the new urge of racial uplift, with a splendid speed towards its triumphant destiny Africa redeemed. Signs of Success Every day the signs are multiplying, showing the way to success. I feel happy that we have struggled thus far to see the signs of victory approaching. There is no doubt that scattered Africa is uniting for its redemption. It is true that we have a large number of intellectual cowards at home and abroad who are afraid of the white man and every shadow that passes; but we shall not faint by the wayside, nor turn back, because these spineless persons, by accident, happen to be members of our race. We have a large number of such persons in America, Africa and the West Indies—Negroes who are always apologizing for the manly attitude the rest of us take to blast a way to racial freedom. The proof of our growing success is to be seen in the fear that our oppressors in Africa and other parts manifest over our effort to improve ourselves, in seeking to block us by restrictive and oppressive laws, and by discrimi- nating against our great organ, the Negro World, the most feared periodical of the world today. They have cowardly passed seditious laws in certain parts of Africa to suppress the circulation of this great paper that carries light to the people, but what fools they are for their pains! Truth cannot be eternally crushed—it shall always rise to plague the evildoers. Small-Kindled Statement Some of the small-minded statesmen of certain nations who have oppressed the Negro are so cowardly as to have made attempts to bar me from entering their country, fearing that my presence would encourage Negroes to the effort of self-help and general improvement and economic independence. This cowardly act of theirs reveals clearly the weakness of their assumption to race superiority and the falsity of their profession of Christian brotherhood. They have been such cowards that they have sought to prevent the black man from improving himself under any condition whenever the opportunity presents itself. This attitude of theirs reveals the lie of their profession of Christian brotherhood and makes their religion only a farce to be resented in its practice by the rising intelligent Negroes of the world. This is not to be interpreted as an attack against Christianity, for primarily we are all Christians and followers of the sacred principles of Jesus Christ, but we surely do not accept the false profession of wicked men who misrepresent the teachings and precepts of Christianity. Determined to Take Africa The villains are determined to take Africa by using the most deceptive methods in religion and morals, thereby HON. MARCUS GARVEY IN HIS WEEKLY MESSAGE FROM JAMAICA URGES THE RACE ON TO GREATER EFFORTS DAY OF AFRICA'S REDEMPTION IS DRAWING NEAR Imperialist Villains Who Would Reduce the Black Race to the Position of the North American Indian and the Australian Aborigine Counting Without Their Host NEGROES WILL, GOD WILLING, DICTATE THEIR OWN POLICY Spurious Methods in Religion and Morals in Africa Will Fail—Negroes of America Warned to Place No Trust in Powerful Subsidized Newspapers Like The New York World. forcing the black race into a position similar to that of the North American Indian and the aborigines of Australia; but it is up to us as a people, as God liveth, to prove to the world that Africa shall be saved to the black man. Stick Together Let us stick together some more; let us rally some more; let us move shoulder to shoulder some more in the great urge of emancipating our race and saving our motherland Africa. We can do this no better than by coming together as one people in the United States of America, in Africa, the West Indies, Canada, and South and Central America. Don't allow any other race to feel you. No one loves you but yourself. Every profession and pretense of love and affection from other channels is false, hypocritical and, in truth, a living lie. I have tested our every pretense of our false teachers, and I have found their every statement of affection and of love to be false—only a pretense to deceive you, to disarm you, so as to make it easy to rob and exploit you. This is a wild statement; it is not a statement of prejudice; it is the cold truth, arrived at after years of real experience. The treatment to me, as you have observed, is but an attack on your attempt as a race to free yourselves as black men in the world. When they imprisoned me, it was not Marcus Garvey that they sought to destroy; it was the urge of black men to free themselves and make Africa a proper place for black men to live in. Think this over and then you will find readily the cause to be careful of how you accept the professions of love and fellowship from others. I repeat that there is no love for you but your own. Therefore go forward with the leadership of God, under your own spiritual guidance, to your own salvation. The future is promising for the Negro race if we will father, brother, sister, sweetheart, wife, or other read the world over, stick to our Universal program of loving ourselves, honoring ourselves and co-operating among ourselves. Vicious White Newspapers In America, I do pray, you will pay no attention to vicious white newspapers like the New York World. Never must you believe in the friendship of such papers, for they are controlled by the great commercial and industrial imperialists who delight in crushing the hopes and aspirations of weaker peoples because of the desire to exploit them and their countries in order to further enrich themselves. These imperialists scatter their investments in foreign countries with the hope and intent to exploit the countries and the peoples. They have no soul for humanity; their only desire is more wealth and still more wealth. They control these newspapers for the purpose of whipping public sentiment into line so as to make it easy for them to exploit and rob the weaker peoples of the world without resentment on the part of civilization. Vicious papers of this kind have power enough, because of the great capital subscribed by these commercial imperialists, even to influence government and to use government as a machine to force their will upon the people. These newspapers have a cunning way to pretend interest in the unfortunate and weaker peoples; but this is only done to deceive them that their schemes will be properly worked out in the interest of their own directors and silent capitalists who control them. You, the Negro peoples of the world, have the power, if you will, to come together and use and improve yourselves in a way that will place you in a position to dictate your own policy and to demand your share of the world. irrespective of the attitude of our vicious enemies. If you co-operate and remain loyal to the principles of the organization, I sincerely prophesy and promise you that in another ten years we shall have a new Negro race greater in numbers, stronger and more powerful than ever before. But the urge today is: Co-operate! Co-operate! Co-operate! Be firm! Be loyal! Be always trusting in yourselves and God! A grand future is before us—acting as we should on these lines. So, let us unite! NOTICE REGARDING THE MIAMI, FLA., DIVISION TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN This is to inform you that O. M.

Marcus Garvay, who is doing so much to elevate the Negro race. At this time the congregation joined heartily in singing our President-General's hymn, "Father of All Creation."

The program was as follows: Short address by ex-President William Hester; recitation by Miss Helen Clark "Bringing Peace to All"; piano solo by Miss Sadie Mills; recitation by Miss Sylvia Ward and Miss Doris Esadle.

NUEVITAS, CUBA On Sunday, January 8, though the clouds were somewhat heavy, we had a fair gathering which gave proof that the spirit of the "Tiger" is abroad.

A. CHAMBERY, Imperial Lawy MONTREAL, CANADA Montreal, the pioneer division of the Dominion, has heard the command, "How to the line," and is forging ahead. The joyous news of the Hon. Marcus Garvey's release burnt like a rainbow on a sky beclouded with doubt. We in Montreal are doubly proud that we have stood firmly behind the Parrot Body at all times and have never wavered in our support to the greatest Prophet of African Redemption—Hon. Marcus Garvey. The old time spirit of Garveyism is again manifesting itself, and we enter into the New Year with the confident hope of unparalleled success. Our president, the Hon. Alfred Potter, his fellow executives and the membership at large, are to be congratulated on their meritorious achievements during the past year. Special mention should be made of Mr. Tucker and Mr. Brown, who have increased the sale of the Negro World. Vice-President Charles Russell, who organized the "Boys' Band"; Capt. J. A. W. Harris, of the Legions, for his faithful work in the Boys' Brigade; Mr. John Marshallle, who has labored unceasingly for the Building Fund; and our incomparable lady vice-president, Mrs. Lillian Folkes, for her service on the entertainment committee. Our chaplain, Rev. Chas. Eate, has been a loyal champion of Garveyism at all times. Like Paul of old, he preaches the gospel of Negro Unite and Independence, in season and out of season. His sermon to the Negro students on December 11, at Liberty Hall, was a masterpiece. Although we fell short of our objective to own our hall in 1827, we believe that with the spirit, of co-operation now being enforced, we should be masters of our own house early in 1828. We appeal to all members and friends to rally to the cause and erect a building that shall stand as a monument to the sacrifice of our great leader, Marcus Garvey. We can do it. We must do it. We shall do it. We extend our hearty greetings and best wishes for success to the Negro World and to our sister divisions throughout the world. We please our continued support to the Hon. Marcus Garvey and to Mr. Knees. VW. H. TROTT, Reporter. LOS ANGELES, CAL. The U. N. L. A. and A. C. L. of Los Angeles had a delightful afternoon on Sunday, January 16. We began our services at 3:00 p.m. The opening ode was sung. Our chaplain said the blessing. The missionary chant was sung by all. The evening exaltation was taken from St. John, 15th chapter. Our first vice-president gave us a few short instructions on putting this program over. His instructions were very interesting. The meeting was then turned over to our second vice-president. He gave us a reading entitled "A Little Thing." The chant then gave us another selection. A few minutes talk was given by Mr. Strouds. He commented on the U. N. L. A. and our director's departure from American soil. Mr. Wilson read the rime and objects. We had a musical trio by the Division's bond. The Negro World was read by Mr. Rouse. "God Bless Our President," was sung by all. Collection was then taken. Our sinner president read a letter from the President-General. We were more than glad to hear from the leader who is working so hard for our liberty. Our second lady president introduced Madame M. Joyner of the Chicago Division. She brought us greetings. She gave us a wonderful lecture on Garveyism. She was applauded. We held our applause most of the time so as to listen carefully to her, and she certainly did lift her voice on the truth of the program. Our president then took a short while and asked for new members. In response to his invitation two enrolled. Our meeting then adjourned. FLORENCE L. SIMPSON. Reporter. SPECIAL NOTICE TO ATHLETES THE UNIVERSAL ATHLETIC CLUB will hold their GENERAL MEETING at LIBERTY HALL, 138 S. 10th Street, on WEDNESDAY EVERY JANUARY. Members; and interested friends have asked to come out early. There will also be the REGULAR ELECTION for the year. The release of our Jupiter, the Moon, Marina Garvey, from Atlanta Prison caused many non-Garveyites to attend our Liberty Hall with eager care to hear what Mr. Garvey planned to do next and to hear of the various lectures given by him in the Ward Theatre, Kingston, Jamaica. Our Liberty Hall was crowded, on Christmas day to its capacity. Mrs. Rachel Richard staged her Sunday School entertainment. A very lengthy program was given to the audience. The children took the most active part in this entertainment. Mrs. R. Richard earned much praise for time she had devoted training the little children to bring her function to a success. On New Year's Day Bartle Liberty Hall was again invaded by a very large gathering when the members of the division with the assistance of wellwishers held a floral service, with Mr. D. Brown as choir master. The program was a decided success. On Monday night, January 7, a social entertainment was given free by officers, members and wellwishers of this locality in which a small treat was given to the members of the choir and the children. The audience was much pleased and we hope in the near future we shall have many new members pouring in to join us on the marsh for Africa's redemption. God bless His Excellency, Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States of America, for the release of our Hon. Leader Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. May all members of the U. N. L. A in every locality move as one man this year so that others who are not yet members may be drafted into strong membership. Christmas Day a very enjoyable time was spent in this division. An early service at 5 a. m., conducted by the Rev. H. G. Helfer, chaplain, began the festal day. Quite a number of members and friends turned out, as is their early custom at their native homes, to take part in these divine rites. The service was a very impressive one. The text was taken from St. Luke, 2nd chapter. At 3 p. m. a beautiful drama called the "Carnival of Flowers," arranged by Mrs. Beatrice Cummings, first lady vice-president and organist, was staged. All the juveniles of the division took part in the performance. This being the first program of this kind held in this community, Liberty Hall was packed to its utmost capacity, all exhibiting keen interest in the various portions of this novel feature. The choir also rendered beautiful collections of Christmas anthems for the occasion. The "Watch Night" service was also well attended. "New Year's Day" was also "Garvey Day," Liberty Hall was again crowded with an eager throng to listen to the encouraging nodding of the U. N. A. After the annual ceremonial rites the president, Mr. J. A. Thomas, opened the literary proceedings with the singing of the presidential hymn, followed by the reading of the front page message of the latest issue of the "Negro World" to the audience, which brought prolonged applause and cheers.

Mighty; solo by Miss Henrietta Cummings; solo by Mr. D. Buckley; address by Messrs. J. A. H. Thorpe, C. A. Shepherd and James Brown, first vice-president. The president in his closing remarks thanked the audience for their whole-hearted support during the past year, and asked that they continue in the new year their interest in the cause of African redemption. After he extended to all the compliments of the season the meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian Anthem and benediction. H. G. MELDER, Reporter. Sunday evening, January 15, this branch of the U. N. L. A. met at the regular place with a appointed program. Prayer services were conducted by Mr. Wilson, after which the program was turned over to Mr. Hudson, First on program was Mrs. Drew. She made an inspiring address, taking as her subject, "Garveyism and Africanism." Next was Mrs. Rogers, who made a fine speech on "Current Events." Mr. Yearwood's topic was one that brought several frowned faces. It was "If Town is a Curriculum, Town is It." The other members on program were: Mrs. Roberts, Mr. Pugh, Mr. Burrell, and Mr. John Coppin, piano accompanist. We had some real heart to heart discussions and confessions when the members told what they think of this wonderful and most significant Universal Negro Improvement Association. Our actions as well as the talks made, helped to prove that we in this division are faithful and brotherly toward one another. DANIEL W. HUDSON, Reporter.

On Saturday night, December 31, the La Africa branch of the U. N. I. A. held an interesting mass meeting. The spirit of Carvayism was much in evidence. The gathering was an annual one. The meeting was called to order by the chaplain, M. W. Vellance, in its usual way with the opening ode, "From Greenland: Icy Mountain." The motto of the association was repeated. The Lord Paulin was sung by the choir. The rallantic service was taken from the Ixtl Palm. The meeting was then turned over to the president, Mr. Barnes. He made a welcome address and introduced the secretary as chairman for the program. A feature of the meeting was the feast of light in opening the program, which was especially worthy of mention. The program was as follows: Rescitation by Miss M. Laddow; song by the choir; recitation by Miss E. Shack; recitation by Master B. Blackwood; hymn by the choir; recitation by Miss L. Thompson; recitation and song by twelve children; recitation by Miss C. Howard; hymn by the choir; address by Mr. P. Young; president's hymn; hymn by the choir; recitation by Miss M. Barnes; address by Mr. R. Beld; hymn by the choir.

At precisely twelve, the chaplain dismissed with prayer, and the friends gave their New Year greeting to each other and went to their several place of abode quite satisfied. Another enjoyable meeting was again held at Liberty Hall on Sunday, January 1. It was a pleasant Sunday afternoon. The hall was again packed to its capacity. The meeting commenced with the regular opening ode, "From greeneries a cry mountains." After the repeating of the motto of the association, the 23rd Palm was sung by the choir. The ritualistic exercises were conducted by the chaplain. The meet- Notice to U. N. I. A.

Teniendo en mente este gran deseo, es justo que nos aprestemos para la lucha y nos preparemos para la mas grande de todas nuestras convenciones internacionales, la cual se llevará a cabo en la ciudad de Toronto, Canada, desde el $1^{\circ}$ al 31 de agosto del año 1929. Toda comunidad de la raza, ya sea en Africa, Asia o America debe estar lista y organizada para atender a ese gran conclave, en el cual el negro definitivamente dejará sentido y ejecutará el programa que patentize su libertad universal. El tiempo que transcurra entre la hora presente y agosto de 1929, será utilizado en la reorganización de nuestro movimiento de progreso. Cada comunidad nuestra sobre la faz de la tierra aportará la mayor cooperación, para que la próxima convención haga historia en los anales de nuestra organización. Su nuevo programa reclama el soporte tanto moral como material de toda la raza, y estoy en la seguridad que cada cual aportará su grano de arena, en la construcción del magno edificio de nuestro enaltecimiento. Nuestro elemento en Africa, Canada, America Central, America del Sur y las Antillas se halla en la línea de combate, aportando su mayor obolo a la causa que patrocinamos y tratando de hacer historia en sus respectivas comunidades. Nuestras divisiones en los Estados Unidos tienen que pasar por un proceso de reorganización. Por ello pido la mas abnegada asistencia al Hon E. B. Knox, quien tiene la responsabilidad de hacer que la convención venidera sea una verdadera campaña organizada de la raza negra. Hora es ya para que los cuatrocientos millones de nosotros permanezcamos unidos como un solo hombre, y destruyamos todos los obstáculos que se interpongan en el camino de nuestro progreso. El mundo debe al hombre negro un sitio adecuado para su desenvolvimiento, y por medio de un esfuerzo comun hemos de adquirirlo. Laboremos por lo grande y glorioso que el futuro nos tiene reservado. Confiando en la sinceridad y cooperación de todos, tengo el honor de ser, Vuestro obediente servidor, MARCUS GARVEY, Fundador y Presidente General.

Cuando el presidente general de esta organización fue culpado de usar el correo para defraudar, entre las multiples publicaciones que trataron extensamente sobre esta cuestión se hallaba Oportunidad, una de las revistas más prominentes de la raza. En el número del mes de enero dicha revista publica un editorial sobre la libertad y deportación del Hon. Marcus Garvey, haciendo las manifestaciones siguientes: Fue enviado a la prisión acusado de usar el correo para defraudar, circunstancia esta muy importante con los hechos importantes en sus actividades, y cuya convicción no parece haber alterado la influencia que el ejercice sobre su elemento, poco comunmente irritante para las afforzidades de varios gobiernos. Luego de haber trancurrido tres años de convicción, nadie usa su nombre para difamarle como un criminal y un mero explotador de negros jincentes. Vale la pena saber el porqué este individuo de la raza negra puede despertar el interes de los gobiernos con subditos negros. Esta es una manifestación sincerela del caso. Al hacer un sumario del lema, del garveysmo, la revista Oportunidad razoma, en sus manifestaciones. No es nada sobrenatural, dice el editorial en cuestion, que el negro anhele un país suyo, con su propio gobierno, sus propias iniciativas y su propia cultura. Dicha publicación termina su editorial del siguiente modo: Garvey, presagiamos, es mas bien el símbolo de un movimiento muy peculiar entre los negros que su inspiración. El ha obtenido éxito al articular varias de las ambicciones de su raza, lo cual ha hecho con la arrogancia usual de los verdaderos directores de las masas. Considerando esas aspiraciones y la posibilidad de contratiempos para esos gobiernor, el garve-smo es algo perjudiente para los mismos. El enviarle a una prisión no altero en manera alguna el curso del movimiento que lleva su nombre, ni la actitud de los pueblos oprimidos en el universo. Apesar de lo que se haya dicho y hecho en contral del Hon. Marcus Garvey, es admissible el hecho de que el dió el soplo de vida a los principios del enalcamiento de la raza y la masa ignorante vió la la por vez primera en la historia moderna con gran reproche del blanco, quien ha estado luchando para eculitaria dicha fur desde que emperó su conquiste en Africa y la sumisión y explotación del negro. La labor de la Asociación Universal pare el Adelanto de la Raza Negra toma incremento; Marcus Garvey vive aun y hacia el dirigen su mirada escudrínadora los poderes predominantes. ¿Esta civilidade al blanco del sur?—Esta es aun una cacestida vital El sur de este país, o por lo menos alguno de sus puntos, ofrecen un campo interesante para un estudio psicológico. Considerado simplemente en las hazas del horror conque sus hombres públicos tratan la ley de la prohibición, al sur debe aparecer como la tierrá cuya moral no debiera ser permitida descender de su alto nivel. Es inconceible que una sección del país que estima la Constitución como una reliquia, pueda cometer errores en otros casos concernientes al fundamentalismo de la ley humana, a los diez mandamientos. Ha sido ciertamente por largo tiempo la práctica del sur el violan la Constitución, privando al negro del derecho al sufragio. Los blancos alli han llegado a acreer que ellos meramente una costumbre de aquella comunidad y no constituyen una violación seria de la ley. Parece que, en su complacencia, en su propio modo de satisfacimiento, ellos han adoptado la misma actitud sobre el linchamiento, lo cual creen también sea otra costumbre. Los blancos de otros estados sin embargo, nunca se han reconeiliado con tales métodos de hacer justicia. Estos consideran el linchamiento como un salvajismo, y a-los que toman participación en el, como a unos cobardes ansiosos de ejecutar un acto de violencia, en el cual no poligra un solo pelo de su cabellera. El último de estos crimenes cometido en Whitesburg, estado de Kentucky, donde una turba de cuatrocientos blancos asaltaron la carcel, sacaron a un negro acusado de asesinato, lo acribillason a balazos, derramaron gasolina sobre su cuerpo y lo quemaron, es una historia más de barbarismo; siendo imposible el que aceptemos como propio el grado de moralidad del sur.—Daily State Gazette, Trenton, N. J. La radiotelegrafía usada en Africa En sus últimos despachos la Prensa Asociada comunica que la telegrafía inalambrica es casi tan antigua como la yaza humana. Los naturales de Africa y los indios americanos usaban métodos estudos para transmitir mensajes a través del aire centenares de años ha. Un tronco huéco, cubierto por una piel colocada en forma trirante era el medio de que se valían para transmitir sus despachos. Golpeando la piel, a manera de tambor, de acuerdo con una clave convenida, los africanos y los indios americanos logran despachar mensajes a distancias comparativamente largas. En la América del Sur los indios no solo contaban con un aparato transmisor sino que también tenían un aparato receptor enteramente identico al difusor. Apicando el oído a la piel el indio encargado de recibir el despecho traducta los conidos lanzados al eter por el transmisor, al lenguaje corriente. TRAVERSE SANARA IN MOTORCYCLES Nebraska Men Trying Out Mechanical Substitute for Camel, Now Well on Their Way. LINGOLIN, Neb., Jan. 15—Using maternity as camels, two young men of Lincoln, who started a world tour five months ago with banjo and guit- rine cane as sole luggage, are now attempting to cross the Bahrain Desert as no man ever crossed it before. Specially equipped automobiles have traversed these wastes, but only after supply depots had been arranged months before. Francis Flood and James Wilson, thirty-one and twenty-seven, started without official backing. Astride, their temperamental puddle jumpers, they must carry all their oil, most of their gasoline and other necessities, and prepare to ford three deep atrama. When the two young men, companions on trips all over America, including a 550-mile row boat journey on the Yukon, set out last August from Lincoln, they carried a banjo for music and a gasoline can to entice motorists into giving them a ride to "the next filling station." Disembark at Lagos Reaching New York in a few days, they embarked on the United States merchant freighter West Humhaw, arriving finally at the port of Lagos in Nigeria. At Lagos, they abandoned their original plans to follow the African coast to Cape Town and decided to trek the desert trails by motorcycle. Khartoum, on the Nile, was fixed as their destination. While they awaited motorcycles ordered from London an epidemic of yellow fever swept the coast, but luck and daily consumption of quinine enabled them to escape the disease. About Nov. 15 they finished preparations for the dash across the desert. There were many emergencies to be anticipated. Several small streams lay in their path, at which they would have to disamble the motorcycle, carry them across part by part, and assemble them again on the other side. Here LET THE YEAR 1928 Be One of Success In order for you to be able to register success during any given period you must concentrate on the necessary units that tend to make it possible. To business leaders, especially those in Greater New York, and more so those in Hartford, we cannot sham this argument too much because we cannot but note the small amount of ADVERTISING done by local business institutions. How you own respect to be a successful business man or woman - without giving due consideration in this most necessary sales occasion is beyond our comprehension. Do not sit down and wait for a salesman to call on you, in order for you to be able to buy something that is absolutely necessary for the success of your business, you must be in touch with him and tell him what you want. How we are interested in selling you some advertising space in Harlem's leading newspaper known as THE NEGRO WORLD read by at least eight thousand in the immediate vicinity. There is not one of them that is not a BUYER. You should be interested if you want to sell your products to them. Therefore you should give THE NEGRO WORLD some due consideration from an advertising point of view. In the last two or three weeks a circulation has been gradually going up — due to the increasing amount of inter- esting reading matter appearing therein. We are now making a very special advertising rate to local business houses that should in- duse you to give our medium a fole trust. Get in on the ground floor of this wonderful opportunity to give life to your establishment. Let the year 1888 be a most prosperous one for you. I am a salesman, as stated before. Do not wait for me to call on my ewu. But drop me a card, and I will be Johnny on the spot.. Wishing you an abundance of success. Warmly for goodness. HAROLD C. SALTUS ADVERTISING DEPT.

A cablegram received on Christmas Day by Mr. Flood's mother brought news that the travelers spent that day in Kinder, a couple of hundred miles out on the Corset, and the place where the desert scene for "Beau Genté" were laid. 23 is presumed they passed through Kana, the walled holy city, in safety. The young man will follow one of three routes after reaching Khartoum. One is down the Nile to Cairo in a small rowboat; and another is to continue in one or both of the metropolises south past the great Victoria Falls and along the proposed route of the Cairo to Cape Town Railroad to Cape Town; and the third is to proceed east toward Port Sudan and then on to Peru. India, the Philippines, the South Sea Islands and other regions of the Orient will be on their itinerary before they return to Lincoln. Mrs. Flood suggested the present journey. She is teaching school while her husband roams. She will meet him and Jimmie in San Francisco next fall. Army Horse Trots From New York to St. Louis ST. LOUIS, Jan. 16.—A six-year-old army mage, Black Bess, was the center of interest here today after a 1,275 mile trot from New York. Black Bess is the mount of Lieut. Paul C. Lienhard, 308d Cavalry, New York, who is attempting a horseback trip from New York to Los Angeles. It is the first trip of the kind ever attempted by one horse, Lieut. Lienhard said. The horse is sound. There is not a blister nor a swelling. "We left New York on December 13 and in twenty-five riding days have usually averaged about forty-two miles in seven hours, or a rate of six miles an hour at a slow trot. Black Bess selected the gait for herself," Lienhard said. Rudyard Kipling Makes First Visit to Cabaret LONDON, Jan. 7—Mile.

THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Reception in Jamaica Pleasing to Followers To the Editor of The Negro World; Kindly permit me space in your valuable paper for a few words of comment and praise for the grand reception accorded to our leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, at Kingston, Jamaica, on Dec. 12, 1927. The reception that Mr. Garvey received is worth while recording and commenting upon, for obvious reasons, but for two in particular. First, it demonstrated to the world in general that Mr. Garvey is the recognized leader of the Negro race universally, and no matter where he goes the spirit of enthusiasm and loyalty prevails to the highest. Secondly, and most important of all, it clearly shows that although the enemy thought they had him robbed of all honors when he was deported from a southern point away from us, that action was really the turning point in his march to fame and glory. While we are happy and thankful for his safe arrival, in his native habitat, we are still more joyful over this demonstration, for it serves as a warning on all his detractors, whether in the kindred or alien races, that Marcus Garvey is not to be trifled with. JULIUS MARSON. New York, N. Y. To the Editor of The Negro World: In the solitary confinement of a prison cell, the Hon. Marvey Garvey has composed an assortment of choice poems and verses that, for sheer beauty and inspiration, are without an equal. Truths of Life, Gems of Knowledge, and Jewels of Wisdom are to be discovered in these writings. Mr. Garvey has presented a series of subjects for recitation or reading. They vary from one verse to ten verses in length, appropriate for child or adult to memorize. The pamphlet consists of over 25 selections and have been published in appropriate form, similar to the epic of "The Tracey of White Injustice." Knowledge is power; power means strength and strength overcome weakness. Our gifted leader has accused the weakness of our mental psychology, vexed by false and alien propaganda, and has submitted these intel- If You Are Unlucky You Need the Wonderful SUNDAY NOTICE All divisions are requested to send in for uniforms to headquarters Order blanks are now ready; also All divisions are requested to send in all orders for uniforms to headquarters Order blanks are now ready; also price list Please Do Not Make Payment by Private Check Sand Post Office of Express Money Order REGULATION FULL DRESS CORDS FOR OFFICERS, N.

Marcus Garvey's Program Only One for Negro To the Editor of the Negro World: Whatever one may think or say of out incompatible leader—the real leader of the four hundred million Negroes of the world. Honorable Marcos Garvey, this one thing—any thinking person (whether a Garvey or not), must admit that no man or set of men in the world's history has stirred black men as he. I am a Garvey, and one who has no apology to make for no, being. I honor him as my leader because of the soundness of his policy—the greatness of his program. There are several things which he teaches, that every Negro ought to think seriously about. First: His advocacy of racial consciousness. No race will ever amount to much, or reach the place in life that it should, unless it finds itself, becomes conscious of its power and places a premium upon its value to the civilization of the world. Marcus Garvey has been trying to get the Negro to "think black" and to stop valuing everything in terms of whiteness. Second: Every other phase of the life of an individual or race is determined very largely by its economic standing. If the economic standing of a race is not what it ought to be, its moral, intellectual and religious life will not be what they ought to be. If we would come into our own and keep step with other races, we must own, a part of this world. Marcus Garvey holds that Africa, being our ancestral home—the only place where we can reasonably hope to rule and govern— You Need the Wonderful MONEY MAGNET and WISHING RING!

DEPARTMENT 130th St, N. Y. C. NATION CONTEST APPLICATIONS we should turn our attention towards our Motherland, and see how that it has a double economic life. The Reagan in this country might well remember that simply clamoring for a thing will get them nowhere; but, if they would come into their own they must pull off their goals, roll up their sleeves, and work to own some part of this world. For when one has a place that he can call his own and in economically independent, he gets the responder of others a hundred times quicker than he can by standing by, waiting for something to "turn up." Third: The Negro must develop his business life. Our boys and girls go to school and prepare themselves for life's work, only to finish, school and find all doors practically shut in their faces. More and more Negroes must learn to pool their resources and open a business; run it on the same standard that other races run their business, so that it may grow, and our boys and girls, men and women, might find employment. It is foolish to expect the business man of other races to supply our people with work when there are thousands of their own in such great need of employment. More and more the opportunities for work are being denied us, and unless we go into the business world and make places, we will suffer. These are just a few the principles upon which our fearless, leader stands, and which he has brought to the attention of the four hundred millions of black men in the world in such a manner that, whether they like him as an individual or agree with his entire program, they must face them and realize that in the acceptance of these principles is their life and progress. In their failure to accept them lies their doom. L. GREER. Oakland, Calif.
