Race's Destiny Not To Be Trifled With, Marcus Garvey Warns The Self-Seeking
Every Negro should send his friend, mother, father, brother, sister, sweetheart, wife, or other relatives a copy of the book that is being read the world over,
"AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS" THE PHILOSOPHY of MARCUS GARVEY

All Leaders in the U. N. I. A. should have a copy to study the principles of the greater Negro movement
SECOND VOLUME, $3.00 POST PAID
SEND ORDERS TO MRS. AMELIA SAYERS, BOX 22, STATION L, NEW YORK CITY
Fellow-Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: It is a grand pleasure to write to you, to inspire you as to the splendid possibilities of the future-a future that is to your own making.
Worthy and Capable Race
I am glad that I am alive at this time to join in with you to create a future to our own liking. As creators of our own destiny we must go forward to that glorious state of achievement when all men shall be compelled to regard us as of a race, worthy and capable.
Association Undergoing Change
The entire fabric of the mighty Universal Negro Improvement Association is undergoing a change. We are now lining up for the creating of the greatest human movement in all history; we are preparing for bringing forth at our international convention in 1929 a movement that shall indeed lift the black man in soul and body to a new era of life.
The Urge to Do
This urge to do is every black man's, and I ask that none falters in this great crusade. The world of Negroes must be brought into one racial whole-there must be a universal link of black brotherhood in industry, commerce, big business, education, religion, society and politics. There shall be no apology for any black man not joining hands with the rest of our 400,000,000 to put over the greatest program of all time.
I know you have had your disappointments from within and from without. In the great Universal Negro Improvement Association many of the members of divisions have been robbed and exploited by false and dishonest leaders who have violated the constitution of the organization so as to make it easy to rob and exploit. You have also been robbed and exploited by the greatest perjurers, liars, rogues and vagabonds—those men who swore to the oaths of office in the Parent Body to serve you with their honor, fortunes and lives—the thieves have been bought out and nearly every one of them went back on you. The catalogue and list of these rogues is filed in the archives of our eternal movement, and when the mills of the gods start to grind we shall grind them, kith and kin, to finest dust. The price of a race is on their heads, and on the heads of their children to the third and fourth generations, so don't worry; the price of their treachery and disloyalty to us shall be paid in full; but let us give them time, for we are not yet ready to exact that penalty that each villain must pay. They have sued and distressed and distrained our great organization and race; they have robbed us of our ships, office buildings, printing plant and some of our Liberty Halls in their vicious, wicked and unjust judgment claims, but they are only piling up greater debts to be paid by them and by their children to the race. Every Negro who robs the Universal Negro Improvement Association, every Negro who robs the race in the name of liberty and our racial cause, shall pay the price; it may be long coming, but he shall pay.
In starting anew we shall dedicate ourselves to get every rascal who steals our money and makes false reports so as
All Divisions Must Put Themselves in Financial Standing as from January 1, 1928-Vigilance and Co-operation to Be the Watchword from Now On
to fleece us out of our rights. We must have honesty from local leaders and from international leaders. I have personally suffered for the lies, fraud, cheating and robbery of every little scoundrel who claims to be representing me, but I am determined that I shall not be a scapegoat for any rascal any longer than we can stop him. I love all Negroes; my heart goes out to every black man in the world, believing that everyone should feel as I do, but that is no reason why advantage should be taken of my name and the great Universal Negro Improvement Association.
Real Men and Women Wanted
We want men and women to serve everywhere in building up a greater and grander organization so that our race can be helped and saved, but we want only honest, faithful and loyal men and women. Rogues, schemers, thieves, keep out, for God's sake, for if you come to us to play the game and to fool us, as others have done, as there is a heaven and hell we will get you sooner or later.
Report Monthly to Headquarters
I am appealing to the membership of the organization all over the world to see to it that each and every division of the organization reports to headquarters monthly. All divisions in America shall report to the American headquarters, and all divisions outside of America shall without fail report to the Foreign Headquarters at 76 King Street, Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I. No division in any part of the world shall be exempted from this order. All must report so that the entire organization will be intact and in proper working order for the grand convention in 1929. Certain persons have the scheme of always offering excuses for not reporting. We want no excuses; we want the reports of your division showing the obligation of the local members to the Parent Body and the Parent Body's obligation to the members. Persons who may take the moneys of members of divisions and do not report same to Parent Body in detail and in order are robbing the members of their rights and the Parent Body also.
Every division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is required to get financial as from the 1st January,1928. All other back reports up to 1st December, 1927, shall be written off if divisions can't make them, but those divisions that report only from January 1,1928,shall not be entitled to the death grant for their members until six months have elapsed after their first payment with consecutive payments each month following. All divisions
that have been financial all along shall have their members protected for the death grant.
Members' Duty
Members whose divisions are not functioning shall send their dues and assessments and taxes direct to, the headquarters, either in America or to Kingston, Jamaica, if it is a foreign division. Officers and members should co-operate to make their divisions function properly. The members shall respect all their officers when they are honest and honorable. We delight in honoring honest, honorable and self-sacrificing local officers. We shall not, when the time comes, fail to honor all our honest local officers, then men and women who are doing so much for the cause in their local fields, but every dishonest officer discovered must be run out of the local organization. Members and officers must be honest to each other and work for the common good of all for the new Parent Body to accomplish the great work before us.
Local Divisions
If the local divisions don't send in their reports to the members we can do nothing for the members. We can only work successfully when every division is reporting regularly. All members should demand that the last month's receipt of reports received at headquarters be read at the last membership meeting of each month so that everybody can be satisfied that the constitution is being lived up to by officers and members alike.
Greater Power and Service
To win we must co-operate and work together, so let no excuse keep you from doing your duty. We promise a new organization with greater power and service if every member and division does its duty. Any effort to show reason why reports should not be sent up immediately and regularly to Parent Body is only a scheme of some rogue to fool the membership. If you support the Parent the Parent will be able to take care of the children. We shall give each division until the 31st of March to have their three months' reports in from January to March. After that date we shall publish regularly each month the names of the divisions that are financial, so that the members may be properly informed.
Let us do what is right by our members and the organization and then go forward to success.
With very best wishes for your success, I have the honor to be
Universal Negro Improvement Association. Kingston, Jamaica, February 3, 1928.
P. S.—There is a woman traveling in Florida and Alabama claiming to be one Princess Coffey or Laura Coffey of Africa. This woman is a fake and has no authority from me to speak to the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Should she attempt to raise funds, from any member or division in the name of the organization or with the pretence of my authority, have her arrested. She has no connection with the organization.

MARCUS GARVEY TELLS THE NEGRO WHAT THE DEITY EXPECTS OF HIM
Says God Expecta Every Negro to Play Well His Part in the World and Live Like a Lord of Creation Misery and Penury Result of Own Shortcomings
The God That the White Man Gives the Negro Is an Imaginary God Specially Designed for a Set Purpose—Negroes Must See God in Their Own Image and Likeness
On Sunday night, January 15, at a monster meeting held at the Liberty Hall of the Kingston Jamaica, Division, the Hon. Marcuss Garvey delivered a remarkable address on "Man's Relationship to God." The first half of the speech appeared in last week's issue of The Negro World. The latter half follows:
"There is nothing in the world that you want that you cannot get as mannexcet playing God and wanting to create a world as He did; but from pushing away the rock from the mouth of the cave, to levelling the Andes or the highest mountain ranges in the world—you can do. You can turn the world into a universal pleasure ground or a universal hell; you can make your world around you happy or miserable. You have within you the competent forces of a creative genius. (Heart Heart) Your conscious and your subconscious selves can make of the world whatsoever you will. (Heart Heart) Your mind is but an expression of your conscious self. You can train that conscious self to master any situation. As for instance: Think of something in your life from boyhood to manhood that you did by determination—dither in rebelling against the will of your mother or your parents, or by doing something in opposition to the wishes of some one else; that you have done in life by determination, and you will interpret that this to be—you will interpret the doing of that thing to be the omnipotent power of the conscious self-expressing itself as it expressed itself in that one direction for good or ill. So can you train it to express itself all through your life.
Determination Essential
Determination Essential
"Some men—the most 'successful' men in the world—are made up of an abundance of conscious expression. They are not only the ones they always do what they want done after a proper decision has been made, analyzed, examined and brought forth. Take the simplest thing to certain men; and take the greatest thing to certain men, and they will put them under an examination—a mental examination; they will gift it from teh surface to the 'source', and by analysis and comparison and so forth they come to a decision. That decision stands against anything in 'the world and you cannot change it'. Such are the men who have made empire—such are the men who have made great worlds for themselves. Such are the men who have made a power rated the lives of men like Napoleon when we see once in a hundred years—sometimes once in a thousand years. Such, too, were men like Oliver Cromwell, Horatio Nelson. Even when life was departing he had a work of eminence for his comrades: "English expects every man to do his duty." Such was the make-up of men like Blissmarck, the iron man of Germany." Peter the Great of Russia, William the Conqueror, General Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Christina Columbus. Such is the make-up of the men in the world: Colin Lindsay. Such should be your individual and collective make-up. The man who cannot determine for himself is a poor fish in the world. Every man can be following and by training his conscious and subconscious self make it do the right always.
The Sub-Conscious Self.
"What is the sub-conscious self? The sub-conscious self is that force in you that makes you walk without even knowing that you are walking... It makes you see whether you want to see or not—hear whether you want to hear or not; it makes you imagine—it makes you think over the future... It advises your conscious self. These are

the subconscious forces that rule the life of the individual. The subconscious force is connected to the conscious force. The subconscious force supplies the conscious force with knowledge and information. Then the soul force acts upon the conscious information that is received from the subconscious self of man. But the conscious and the physical forces of man are all wrapped up together. They are a particle of one and the same protoplastic whole. The spirit is an entity that exists apart from them. It is as I said a particle of God directing this consciousness—this soul-consciousness, advising it to do that which is right; and sometimes it emphasizes itself so as to let us know right from wrong. Have you ever been in a state when something says, Go this way! and the consciousness says, Go this way! and sometimes you must misfortune through following the disobedient and rebellious soul? That is the evil comes into one's life by disheying the advice that comes from the spirit that is within you. The individual who trains his mind properly knows when the spirit speaks and makes a rattle. The most successful men in the world are those who have trained themselves to adhere to the spirit when the spirit speaks and follow in the direction of the spirit.
"When a bad man dies, what we mean by his going to hell is that the spirit has departed from him in disgust and will recognize him no more except as a rebellious soul before its judgment. You cannot lie when you got to judgment because your spirit is there. Man you are going to judge yourself and you don't know. Man will be his own judge on the DAY OF JUDGMENT. Therefore, you can't lie to yourself. The book that you write here is the book that you will open the DAY OF JUDGMENT. The spirit that is within you, when you are dead and buried in gone back to the source from which it came. You were part of God when you lived, and that spirit that left you when you died will be GOD TO JUDGE YOU when you are called to Judgment. So Negroes be careful of yourselves, be careful with your spirits. Nobody is going to judge you but yourself. Therefore, you can't lie to yourself. Don't go and beg anybody, don't steal from anybody—because you are going to be your own judge. You can lie to others, to your brother, to your wife and your husband. You can tell that you are the (Laughter). You can tell that your husband that you went to market when you went somewhere (Laughter); but you can't lie to yourself on the DAY OF JUDGMENT. As you shall judge yourself on the DAY OF JUDGMENT, so are you judging yourselves now.
Man Know Thyself
**MAR KNOW THYSELF**
"Watchman, what of the night?—" I have waited on my brother and he has passed me on the way. Why, you lazy, good-for-nothing. Aerosols, he has been so bad that he should kick you out of the way (Laughter). If you have no more sense than to lay on the wayside you ought to be crushed. (Laughter). Men you are God! Men you are God! You are of God absolute in that in you is the spirit of that GREAT CREATOR—the whole of which made man, the whole that constitutes the one God; God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. There is nothing higher or then you in the world—whether your color be black, yellow or white. (Applause). You are the highest instrument of God's Divinity; you are the highest of God's creation. There is no law for man to trample on you, because, mar is Lord. (Applause). there is no law for God to come from Heaven and lead you, because you are God of yourself. Gt a scientific knowledge of religion, of God; of what you are; and you will create a better world for yourselves. Negroes, the world is to your making.
The God of the Negro
"The God that the white man glyces you is that imaginary God he made for you—but not the God who made the land and sea, the rivers, mountains, plains and hills—all for you. He adorned nature with its beauty of flowers and vegetation. He created all men of our mould. But look at what God has given you. He has given you a wonderful variety. So that if you have no taste for dates, oranges, peaches and plums you do not need if you have no taste for laughter (you have no laughter) we have mangoes; if we have no mangoes we have sweet-sap, (as the ladies stylish mango, grapefruit, oranges, custard-apple, pineapples, canes, jambalayi. In America if they do not know what "jambalayi" they will know about dates, oranges, plaches, hammers. I am not (Continued on page 2)
Laying Plans to Corral Wealth of Richest Coptinent in the World. While 400,000,000 Black Men Look On Complacently
(From the New York Times)
To the Editor of the Editor of the New York Times: Opportunities exist in Africa for American participation in building railways and driving the way to obtaining Central African trade and freights for its mercantile marine in the railway race for control of the rich products of Central Africa.
In Africa, south of the Equator, the Portuguese are busy, diversifying trade from Rhodesia by their railways to the Port of Beira, which, by the way, increased shipping by 60,000 tons in 1927 over 1928.
Other Portuguese ports on the east side of Africa, Delagon Bay, Inhambane and Pemba Bay, are also rapidly advancing, while Lobito Bay, their western seaport, with the 1,710-mile Benguela Railway into Belgian Congo, will absolutely control Rhodesia and Central Africa trade on both east and west sides of Africa south of the Equator.
France now plans to build a railway 2,250 miles across the Salarun. This will sweep North-Central Africa produce to Timbuboo and secure a large proportion of Nigerian, Gold Coast and Liberian commerce.
A loophole is left in South Africa where all opportunity exists for American contractors to secure the building of a 620-mile railway across the Crown lands of the British Government in Northern Bechuanaland to link up the railway to Walvis Bay in the Mandalal territory of South Africa. This railroad and outlet at Walvis Bay would save 3,250 miles of present and rail transport via Bela from southern to Europe, its construction would cost less than 2,000,000 acres according to flying survey. The road would pass through a rich cattle, mineral and agricultural district and return about $1,000,000 the first year it is opened.
Any substantial group of American railway contractors could secure from the British Government a, grant of about 4,000,000 acres of land in consideration of building this railway.

PORTO RICANS PLEAD FOR FREEDOM OR FOR CITIZENSHIP
from the New York World
Col. Lindbergh, sitting comfortably on that flat veranda, the front page, has called up yet another little fellow to share his place in the sun for a moment, and to speak a piece. This time it is Porto Rico. And the piece can be spoken with a considerable amount of dignity.
For Porto Rico—in addition to being the place where the black molasses comes from—is the largest, oldest and most populous of United States possessions. Christopher Columbus was the first white man to see it, on his second voyage, in 1493, and its first governor was Ponce de León. The island is a hundred miles long and about forty miles wide, and even if we have learned to be a little wary of those atmospheres tempered by the Gulf Stream it can buy claim to the best climate in the West Indies. Porto Rico was conquered by Major Gen. Miles in the Spanish-American War, and since then it has been governed by executive officers appointed from Washington, and by its own legislature. The majority of the population is the Porto Rican mahogany is held to be the world’s second and the Porto Rican sugar cane is the most important addition to the world supply. Porto Rico independence, on the other hand, is regarded as something less than perfect by the inhabitants of the island. For some years there has been resistance to American rule. And while President Coolidge was in Havana he received a telegram from the President of the Island Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives pleading for freedom. They asked that their people be relieved from the humiliating position they now occupy and that Porto Rico be given either complete independence or the rights of free statehood.
Premier Poincare
Distrusts Telephone
Paris.—Premier Polincar doesn't trust the telephone. He uses it rarely, and never when secrecy is important. "I do not use it," he said recently in the Chamber. "because your political friends sometimes lain in on Minister's calls," replying to remarks by a hostile Deputy.
Polincar's admission aroused a good deal of discussion because one of the Government's arguments in favor of telephone monopoly, that public access to phones there was unimpaired in the incident, because three months ago Royalists got control of telephone lines from the Ministry of the Interior and by implementing the Minister and his assistant over the telephone they caused Leon Dautet, Royalist leader, to be released from prison.
London. Feb. 8. - Half a million pounds starting in cash and securities has been placed in the hands of Bairn Brothers, bankers, as trustees, to accumulate, at compound interest over a long period of years, and eventually to be applied to the partial extinction of the national debt. This is the gift, just made to the nation by an anonymous donor. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has accepted the gift. The donor, through the Barings, expressed the hope that others may be given a financial fund. The Chancellor has received several previous small gifts of war bonds for cancellation. The most notable was the gift of Premier Stanley Baldwin, who in 1919 thus gave $120,000 worth. That he was the donor was learned a long time afterward.
GUATEMALA WOMEN
PRAISE SANDINO
Send Letter to Nicaraguan General Hailing Him as Their Hero
—An Example to Future Generations
General Augustine G. Sundino, leader of the Nicaraguan Inquests, is the best ideal of $500 Guatemalan women, judging from a letter sent to him from Guatemala City on January 28, a copy of which has just reached New York.
This sultate begins by informing General, Sandino that "the Guatemalan woman, her soul filled with patriotic enthusiasm, sends the testimony of her, pride and admiration." excoriates the Nicauguans who "do not hostile to ask for Intervention and in so doing thrust into the hand of the North Americans the brutal whip that would lash the faces of the cowards." lauds the bravery of Sandino and his handful of followers and concludes as follows: "General Sandino! Victorious or defeated, you are the great, you are a hero!"
Conquered, you will have the world for your country and will be accompanied by glory whenever you go; victorious, you will be acclaimed with the noble Central American who know how to carry the flag of his country to the heights.
If, unfortunately, you should die, your tomb will be the symbol of the honor of Nicauguas and, in its solemn silence, will teach future generations to defend national Integrity.
General Sandino! Receive for yourself and your valiant men the ennuiastic ovation of the women who admire and for all the men of Central and South America the appeal we are making for the uniting of all the nations of Latin America in a supreme effort to show the world that death is preferable to slavery.
The education is followed by the names of about 300 women.
PLEAS FOR CHARITY HEAVIEST IN YEARS
That the present unemployment situation is fast becoming serious in facticated by the fact that the Charity Organization Society is now receiving more appeal of help than at any other time in the last eleven years, according to Lawson Purdy, director of the society, who said today that during the month of December last a total of $272,540 was spent in giving relief to people in need. This amount which does not include the cost of restoring these families to a state of independence, is the highest that has ever been reached in a single month in the full forty-five years of the society's history. "Of the 2,266 families under the care of the Charity Organization Society during December, 516 presented the problem of unemployment." Mr. Purdy said. "And of the unemployed persons 91 per cent were anxious to work, two-thirds of them being between the ages of 25 and 56." Charity Society's wood yard at 516 West Twenty-fourth street temporary employment is given to an average of 183 men a day, Mr. Purdy added, and the average might be increased if New Yorkers, would buy their firewood of the society at once. He quoted figures of the State Industrial Commission, which indicate a steady decline of 13 per cent in factory employment in New York State in 1922. The gross earnings of railways during the last quarters were down 28 per cent on the corresponding period of last year.
The Antilles, the dozen of islands, large and small, that protect the Caribbean from the Atlantic, have a large role in the history of exploration, beginning with the voyage of Columbus. The Lesser Antilles, over which Col. Lindbergh flew, comprises, practically all the West Indies except the Bahamas, and the Greater Antilles—Cuba, Jamaica, and the Bahamas. And the South Pacific, Diego Bello the Lesser Antilles lie in a great area to the southeast as Terán to the coast of Venezuela.
All of them are small, and dependent chiefly on sugar for their living. They have a total area of 6,187 square miles and a population of less than 1,800,000 scattered among the American, British, Dutch and French islands. In the early days of America they were considered the most valuable, part of the New World, and the largest of the big naval engagementsthose of the Colonial wars.
African Prelate Enlightens W. Va. Audience on Africa's Contribution to Civilization—Lecturer Says Africans Preceded Columbus in America
From the Post-Herald, Baytown, W. Va.
Negroes from the so-called dark continent of Africa discovered America before Columbus, according to Professor Leo Wiener of Harvard University. This information was read to a packed house at Stratton High School, Monday, by Sallie Hickman, opening the celebration of Negro History week. The speaker declared that Professor Wiener, in three volumes under the title of "Africa and the Discovery of America," bases this startling claim upon the facts that many practices, rites, ceremonies and words of the aborigines of the West Indian Archipelago game from West Africa. He further states that the indigenous Indian words are of African origin, as for example, "cannoo," and the appellations for sweet potato and yam. Tobacco and its smoking, he brings evidence to show, were introduced into America by Africans, who in his opinion, long before Columbus, had crossed over to America from Guinea.
Native of Africa
Bishop T. C. Glashon, a native of Africa and prelate of his church, delivered the principal address. Accustomed to hearing that all Africans are in a state of object ignorance, many persons were astonished to learn of the many African accomplishments and contributions to civilization. Reverend Glashon surplaced his audience as much, with his information as with the manner of preparation. He was approached only upon Sunday by Professor J. W. Grimes, of Negro Proverb Week at St. Stephen's, Montpelier, where the speaker had drawn six original sketches showing African confines, shoes, manner of drawing water from African wolls, a wooden kett, and woven bags created by the natives before the discovery of America. The speaker declared that many Americans will be surprised to learn the truth about Africa, and her contribution to civilization.
The African Negro, according to good authority, domesticated the sheep and cow, and hundreds of plants. He was the first smother of iron, and thereby is the true father of this age since this is the iron age. Archaeologists today are unseeing many, implement of iron and bronze in Central Africa, south of the Sahara. Contrary to the common belief that the native of the so-called dark continent eat only coconuts and bananas, Rev. Glashen cited at least twenty vegetables of common diet domesticated and eaten by the mules. He also showed woven baskets and goods tanned by the mules. Dr. Glashen told the world has much to unlearn. That just as Asia is want, the home of enlightenment and also savagery, so is Africa. The audience was held spellbound for one hour while the speaker disclosed fact after fact gathered from scriptures, scholars and personal experience. He declared that where he to talk for hours, he would not exhaust accomplishments of African Negroes.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 14—The best annual meeting in the history of the inter-racial movement in Alabama has just been held here with seventy-five representative leaders of the two races in attendance. Among the evidences of progress reported were increasing attention to inter-racial questions by religious, civic and other groups; a sympathetic press; freedom from lynchings; improved educational conditions, with lengthening of terms, increases in salary, and better teacher training and classification, and better prospects for the establishment of a home for delinquent girls.
In addition, reports were heard from a number of counties: indicating an encouraging growth of inter-racial good-will and co-operation. Mobile, for example, reported that an extensive paying program was being carried out in the Negro areas, that library facilities are soon to be provided in connection with the new quarter-millage program, and that a fire protection unit has recently been placed in the Negro section, and that fuller provision will be made for Negro patients, in the tuberculosis sanitarium.
In Limestone County, as the result of inter-racial co-operation, the number of colored schools has been increased from five to twenty, and the white citizens of Athens recently contributed $4,000 and the Negroes $3,500 to supplement funds from the American Missionary Association for the education of a number of school high schools.
From Birmingham came reports of a fine school project and residential subdivision soon to be developed under the auspices of the Episcopalian (Church group), led by Bishop W. G. McDowell. It was stated also that certain irritating situations in Birmingham had been successfully dealt with. From Montgomery it was reported that efforts are in progress for better school facilities, provision of a public park and playground, and increased accommodations in the tuber.
W. E. B. DU' BOJS
GEORGE W. HARRIS
EDGAR M. GREY
OF all the sins to which the journalist is heir there are few more名
seating and disgusting than lying cant and hypocrisy, brazen deced
and prevarication unashamed. And the poignant truth of this is em
phasized by the recent antics of two Negro publications, the New
York News and the New York Crisis, the former a weekly would be
tabloid edited by one George Harris, and the other the monthly
mouthpiece of the N. A. A. C. P., edited by W. E. B. Du Bois, who
once made a futile bid for fame by calling Marcus Garvey, a little
ugly, fat, black man.
A FEW weeks ago the New York News carried an article from the
pen of its columnist, Edgar Grey, on "The Spanish Menace in Harlem" a virulent, vituperative, almost villainous arraignment of the Spanish-speaking citizens of Harlem, New York, as a group, wherein they were condemned as a dirty and profligate band of wastrels and rapists. The righteous indignation of the group so wantonly indicted quickly swelled to alarming proportions, and so the New York News sought to make amends. And how? From the pen of the editor came a measly, apologetic article in lavish praise of the maligned group, while Edgar from his little corner whined for forgiveness, pleading imbecility and disowning authorship, "I did not write it," moaned Grey, whose name and picture had appeared above the calumny, "it was one Arthur, King—no, no, Arturo Quinn, Spanish gentleman. It is he who is the culprit. I was busy, and I did not even read the article which was sent me by him. O. pardon dme dear friends, 'tis mercy I implore; I will never more offend you, no, never more."
AND so Edgar Grey stands a self-confessed journalistic cloak... take columnist, who does not always write or read the articles which appear under his name and picture. In this matter he brands himself an irresponsible contributor to an equally-irresponsible journal, whose editor, like himself, must have as his working rule: From contributor to composing room. Either that, or, as is generally recognized and believed, Edgar Grey wilfully and brazenly lied when he renounced authorship of the offending article and sought to fasten blame upon "Arturo Quinn." Far better would it have been, and more considerate of the feelings of the Fourth Estate, for Harris and Grey to have admitted authorship, and responsibility and to have apologized, than to have made the pitiable parade of passing the buck to a mythical personage.
AND lest we forget, George Harris is one of the immortal eight who begged friend Daugherty to silence Marcus Garvey. And Edgar Grey—he is the gentleman, a former employee of Marcus Garvey, who was one of the star witnesses in the case of the United States, against Marcus Garvey and the author of a series of amazingly scandalous articles on Marcus Garvey which appeared in a New York Negro weekly shortly after Marcus Garvey's incarceration. But, perhaps, Edgar did not write these articles; perhaps he did not even read them: pressed hard enough, perhaps he would have named Mr. Fung-kee-Fung of Canton as author.
IN the February number of The Crisis is an article with the caption, "Marcus Garvey and the, N. A. A. C. P." There is nothing very striking or unusual about the head, all will agree. For years now, every now and again, the N. A. A. C. P., through its paid agents, its perpetual office-holders, a hand-picked gang of Aframerican leaders (out of consideration for their feelings we will shun the word "Negro") has hammered away at the task of vilifying Marcus Garvey and holding him up to ridicule, of misrepresenting the movement which he founded and leads, of breaking the wonderful morale of his fellowers. In the forefront of the fight, Dr. W. E. Burghardt Du Bois, a director of the N. A. A. C. P. and editor of The Crisis, has always figured, this gentleman, who at one time dreamed dreams of becoming the national leader of Negroes in America, being greatly irked that Marcus Garvey, "an ugly black man," should have come to this great country from an island of the sea and founded a movement which in one year completely eclipsed the N. A. A. C. P. and established himself, head and shoulders above all others, not only as the national but the world leader of Negroes.
WHENEVER Du Bois and his henchmen thrust, Marcus Garvey parried and countered with telling effect. Soon things had come to such a pass that one of the strongest reasons for not being a member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was that you were a member of the N.A. A. C.P. and vice versa. The hostility between the N.A. A. C.P. and the U.N.I.A., carefully engendered and fanned by Dr. Du Bois, became so great that it was tantamount to treason for a member of the N.A. A. C.P. to talk well of Marcus Garvey or his movement, and the Negroes of the world in convention assembled felt constrained to legislate that no member of the N.A. A. C.P., for the nonce, was eligible to high office in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Members they could and did become by the hundreds, but it was felt that members of the N.A. A. C.P. should cool their heels in the ante-room, before being admitted into the inner council chamber of the U.N.I.A. Du Bois raved and stormed and slung mud, from platform, from magazines, and from The Crisis, while Marcus Garvey, the idol and champion of the masses, the elected leader of the Negroes of the world, hit back with everything at his command, finding many a vulnerable spot as he exposed the transparent hypocrisy of the "Barons of Fifth Avenue in their professions of seeking to help the masses.
BUT it now appears that the N. A. A. C. P. was never, the enemy of Marcus Garvey that; Dr. Du Bois never, said a wardate which followers and friends of Marcus Garvey could take exception. At least, that is the amazing proposition to maintain which The Crisis devotes a page of its February issue. Says The Crisis, or Du Bois, whichever you will: "Many persons are under the impression that the N. A. A. C. P. has been the persistent enemy of Marcus Garvey. This is due to repeated accusations published in The Negro World without the slightest basis of fact. For the sake of truth, it may be well to recall certain matters of clear record." And, after "recalling certain matters of clear record," Dr. Du Bois says: "We are reminding our readers of all this not to revive forgotten rancor, but for the sake of historical accuracy."
THE trick is as old as the hills. Marcus Garvey has been deported from American, and his organization not only flourishes, but is gaining momentum. Something must be done to check this. And so Dr. Du Bois seated in his chair in the office of the Crisis, takes counsel of Du Bois. He crosses his legs, brings the tips of his fingers together, contemplative fashion, and mitters: "An article from my powerful pen is imperative. But I must of the present temper of the Aframerican press, which with a vulgar display of heinous sentimentality has lined itself up behind Garvey. If I use my old methods, it will prove a boomerang—the stone will surely rebound

are many ways to’ advertise godds, and the! wise ‘merchant uses all
‘of them-or-relies upon the most ‘accepted as being’ best. Newspaper
advertising has come to be regarded as the’ best medium, because

‘as to goods he may sneed and _.tHe prices he- wants to pay for

Now, newspapers depend for their revenues ‘on’ theif’ subscrip=

‘upon the number of subscribers and volume of advertising they .com-

EAST INDIANS: FIGHTING FOR.A SQUARE ‘DEAL
HE LONG fight of the people of East India for a larger voice
Th the administration of their’affairs, and-the disposition of the
British rulers:to allow them less everi than they have has been
brought to’a crisis By the advent in India of the Statixory Commis-
sion on-Indian’ Affairs, the chairthan-of which is Sir John’ Sithon.
The ogposition to the cortmission and its work ig based upon the
fact that it is rade;up. entirely, of Englishmen. The East Indians
insist that they should have been given a fair representation on thé
commission and that as they wére not, they will refuse all"offers of
co-operation with.-the commission Which shall be made them. The
latest offerjof conciliation made by Sir John Simon has been Fojected
by members f the’ National” Congress, dominated: by ‘Mahatma
Gandhi, whosé non-co-operation movemen¥ has done more to unify
sentiment of nationalism aniong East-Indiang than any: other move-
merit. % i RT a

we all have certain needs we can't escape, but which we have to
provide for. Some. things. we all nged alike, sych as foodstuffs and
clothing, but we all do, not-want the’ same. grade. of com:nodities,
which are regulated by the price of them. We haye'to.decide what.
we want and/are able to pay for. And that fact brings into being

PORTO RICO ASKS FOR THE STATUS OF A DOMINION
Too Alien in Blood and Spirit
Ever to Be a Part of U. S.
Old Territorial Code Will Not
Fit Island
HAYANA, Feb. 13. Porto Rico
wants not a statehood, nor independence, but the status of a dominion, it was declared here today by prominent representatives of the island, who "deplored the fact that she was not represented in the Pan-American conference." They assert that she is Spanish and much more closely tied with the majority of the nations comprising the conference than is the United States.
What they want, economically, in brief, is continuance of free entry for their products into the United States and the right to import what they buy from other nations without United States customs duties applying.
Porto Rico Sugar and Tobacco Free
As the United States lets in Porto Rican sugar and tobacco free, while imposing a very high duty on cigars from Cuba, and a high duty, despite the differential, on Cuban sugar, United States delegates here think Porto Rico has more benefit economically from the present arrangement than from any which could be devised. This is enhanced, they point out, by the foot that while American customs duties are collected on imports into Porto Rico, and while American income and other Federal taxes are collected, this money is not turned into the Federal Treasury at Washington, but is used to destroy the costs of operating the local government of Porto Rico, thus making the local taxes there very light indeed as compared to local taxes in any State in the Union:
The Porto Rican View
The following view of the situation, however, was expressed on the Meridian Tribune by a prominent Porto Rican official here:
"The Pan-American Conference has made Porto Rico prominent by omission—an omission, not wasted, on the Latin-American press. Since for a few words edged in by one of the speakers for equal rights at the unofficial plenary session hold to hear the women, the name of Porto Rico does not appear, in the record of the conference so far.
"And yet, it might have. The presidents of the Senate and the House of the Porto Rican Legislature, Messias Barcelo and Tous, the highest possible embodiment, at present, of Porto Rico's popular will, sent a cable to the conference expressing their regret, that Porto Rico, a full-fledged nationality in every realistic sense of the word—burring the accident of political ties—should have no voice at a gathering mostly composed of, even if not dominated by, peoples of a similar origin, a similar tradition—a similar moral and cultural structure, among which Porto Rico, by all standards, is far from being the least in importance.
A Distinct People, He Says
"Porto Rico has a people distinct from that of the United States or any State of the Federal Union. It entered the scopa of American power as a new factor, not provided for in the juridical structure of the United States. If it is to be treated with any sense of reality, it must be treated as a special case for which American experience provides no rules. You can't fit the old territorial code on Porto Rico, and she will not accept the antique colonial canoe. What are the United States going to do, if they do not simply want to be frankly brutal?
"The two Porto Rican statesmen mentioned have put the desires of our people clearly before the world, using the Pan-American Conference as an unwilling vehicle. They want a full measure of self-government, under a form peculiarly adapted to Porto Rico's special case. They want a free state, where the American flag shall not fly any more disastrously than the British flag does over Canada or Australia.
Not a Sentimental Claim
"Is this profound claim of the Porto Rican people merely sentimental? Well, forgetting for the moment that sentiment is the word used by those having power to describe the dignity of those under their rule—there are solid and tragic reasons why the solution proposed by our statesmanship is the only possible reasonable alternative to ruthless domination.
"Porto Rico is not built to be within customer and constitutional system of United States. She cannot decently or efficiently Survive within that system. The American flag, which conserves liberty in the forty-eight states cannot forever be used to decorate exploitation—and plicpune exploitation at that—in one of the most cultured and industrious countries of Latin America.
"That exploitation is effected, first,

through the constitutional systems, which prevents adequate legislation from being enacted against the great evil of abuses-owned by great centralized land holdings. Scoped and worst, through the customs system, which exacts, in exchange for the privilege granted to sugar and tobacco -centralized industries owned by few -that the whole people of Porto Rico shall provide their food, clothing and shelter from the tariff-propped American market at tariff-propped American prices, thus compelling the $8 cents a day Porto Rico worker to buy such necessities as he consumes at the price paid by the $8 a day American worker. Other Latin American countries buy principally in the American market, but at competition prices. Porto Ricans must buy at monopoly prices.
"There is an appalling example of sharp economic practice, direst against a whole people, and considering the sizes and power of both peoples concerned, of unhappily pleasing exploitation.
Appeal to Conference
"Will the American people, who would never consent to be a robber people, allow themselves to be given the appearance of a pickpocket people?
"Porto Rican statesmanship thinks not. And it is for that reason, and because we consider the case of our country: as a very special one in this hemisphere, that we have appealed, so far in vain, to the Pan-American Conference to study our position and extend a friendly hand to 1,500,000 Latin-Americans at sea on a raft. Sorrow our word has not been heard. Is there any vitality in the conference? Or is it economy in honor of the United States?"
Gandhi Moves to Make Boycott of British Commission More Complete—Opposition Uniting Forces
LONDON, Feb. 12.—Sir John Simon is fighting a losing campaign. In his endeavor to motivate the offended Hindus in India and induce them to co-operate with the Statutory Commission, according to dispatches from various points in India received over the week end. Not only are the extremists houting the commission openly since its arrival, but apparently they have been joined by groups which usually are more moderate.
Besides these setbacks there are atraws in the wind presaging coming storms. In bombay, Gandhi has renewed his political activity and is counselling the remnants of his old following to make the boycott of the commission more complete. Owing to the precarious state of his health, it is said that his ability to fight the Simon commission vigorously is doubtful. But he intends to make a comeback in politics if his health will permit.
A minor movement is beginning in India wherein political trouble is foreseen. This consists of local revolts against the land revenue demands of the Madras Presidency. Though now largely economic in character, the movement is recognized as capable of taking a violent political turn.
One great cause of the Silicon Commission's troubles, it is said, lies in the injured feelings of the former leader of the Indian Assembly who journeyed to London at his own expire last summer particularly to see the India Office and lay before it the necessity of including Indians in the personnel of the inquiry. He trivial and failed to see Lord Birkenhead and, returning to India without an interview, isighting the commission tooth and mail. The result of his and other leaders' activities was the flat refusal to see Sir John issued by the group of "Constitutionalist" leaders within five hours after his friendly invitation. The "Constitutionalist" hitherto have cooperated with imperial commissions, but their answer to Sir John was about as follows:
"Our position is that the Crown could have created an equal status for Indians by putting them on the commissions, as is invariable in modern practice for all royal commissions concerning India. What the Crown has failed to do the commission cannot do now."
All shades of moderation over the question of British rule are disappearing, it is hinted, and the country is lining up into two camps:
John Old Scout! You're Growing As Thin As A Rail
He used to be such a manly looking fellow with good features and a fine figure, but now his mongra flesh hardly covers his bones—He is absolutely skinny.
He taught on John to have his friends talking about him that way, but the health resorts and the mountains are populated with just such Johns who kept, getting thinner and thinner without trying to help themselves.

"Article "Marcus Garvey and altruity, untruthful, wickedness of historical accuracy": "Exon or Ben Tillman or he ever stooped to a barry, sane or insane, in prejudice, he is grovelling attack is on men of his only contempt is for blood." "Who, as all the world knows, including the learned, Du Bois backbone in the Negro and understand that they are in God's creation," even had a fairer and more convinced himself to monkey-shines in the coat and his insults to the world.
"This is superfluous. Du Bois himself how untrue and ridicule a grave injustice when he of a "long-tailed coal" or the conviction." As Du Bois in court every day in a state he was being tried by a P. and who refused, in strict trusted officials after brought the long-concealed is office, and we published shot in the back in N. C. or insimulation made? A man who the U. N. I. A. were arrested, N. I. A. , charged with the facts. And it is not conceived a was "concealed," as a convention period can test.
cannot fool all of the people in The Crisis was a child George Harris you are bottom of the class. Or that George was found poignant and shameful teenagers, William Pickett and Robert Bagnall. Directors with Harris of the way way back in 1923 as he says that Dr. Du Bois, his N. A. A. C. P., consumed unpleasant enemy of the sinister influence of H. persecuted and has never Du Bois' sorest screwed in N. P., is proof positive of
and brain me. 'Ah! I have it. Who said you were growing old, Du Bois? A plan! An estimable plan! I will seek to show that the N. A. A. C. P. was never the enemy of Marcus Garvey, and, doing so, invent a way to spread once again upon the public print some of the nastiest imputations and insultations The Crisis ever made about this Marcus Garvey. Yes, 'where there's a will there's a way,' is a fine proverb."
AND so we have the article "Marcus Garvey and the N. A. A. C. P." So we have such paltry, untruthful, wicked things as the following reprinted "for the sake of historical accuracy."
"Not even Tom Dixon or Ben Tillman or the hatefullest enemies of the Negro have ever stooped to a more vicious campaign than Marcus Garvey, sane or insane, is carrying on. He is not attacking white prejudice, he is grovelling before it and applauding it, his only attack is on men of his own race who are striving for freedom; his only contempt is for Negroes; his only threats are for black blood."
(This is about a man, who, as all the world knows, and the American Negro in particular, including the learned, Du Bois, has striven and is striving relentlessly to place backbone in the Negro race; to make black men and women know and understand that they are inferior to none and were made inferior to none in God's creation.)
"No Negro in America ever had a fairer and more patient trial than Marcus Garvey. He convicted himself by this own admissions, his swaggering monkey-shines in the courtroom with monocle and long-tailed coat and his insults to the judge and prossecting attorney."
(Perhaps comment on this is superfluous. Dr. Du Bois, on third thought, must admit to himself how untrite and ridiculous it is. Further, he does American justice a grave injustice when he would have people believe that the wearing of a "long-tailed coat" or a monocle by a Negro defendant can superinduce conviction. As Du Bois, with the rest of us, knows, Garvey appeared in court every day in a sober business suit, his greatest concern being that he was being tried by a judge who was a member of the N. A. A. C. P. and who refused, in spite of protest, to disqualify himself.)
"One of his former trusted officials after being put out of the Garvey organization brought the long-concealed cash account of the organization to this office, and we published it. Within two weeks the man was shot in the back in New Orleans, and bitten."
(Was ever more sinister insinuation made? A man was killed in New Orleans, two members of the U. N. I. A. were arrested on representations made by enemies of the U. N. I. A., charged with the crime and acquitted by the court. Those are the facts. And it is not even true that any cash account of the U. N. I. A. was "concealed" as readers of The Negro World during the annual convention period can testify.)
NO. Dr. Du Bois, you cannot fool all of the people all of the time. Your February splurge in The Crisis was a characteristic bit of yellow journalism, and with George Harris you are relegated to your well-earned place at the bottom of the class. Come to think of it, this is not the first time that George was found in the company of N. A. A. C. P. officials in poignant and shameful circumstances. For were not Dr. Du Bois' lieutenants, William Pickens, Field Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., and Robert Bagnall, Director of Branches of the N. A. A. C. P., cossigners with Harris of the immortal document, sent to friend Daugherty way back in 1923 asking him to silence Garvey?
THE Negro World repeats that Dr. Du Bois, his fellow directors and other officials of the N. A. A. C. P., consumed with jealousy, made of that organization the impleable enemy of the U. N. I. A.; that the N. A. A. C. P., under the sinister influence of Dr. Du Bois and hisenchmen, has consistently persecuted and has never ceased to persecute Mareis Garvey; and that Du Bois' latest screed in The Crisis, the official organ of the N. A. A. C. P., is proof positive of this, if further proof were needed.
Lord Birkenhead Denies
That Coin Guided Career
Oxford, England. A film of a coin did not decide which political party Lord Birkenhoven should join. Lord Birkenhoven made that very clear here. It was at an Oxford Union Society debate when the story was sprung as a part of the ammunition of the side opposing the Secretary of State for India, who is a stanch Conservative. "That story about the tone of a coin has been joined" the rounds-for years as characteristic 'Liberal pleasantry' exclaimed the Cabinet member. "It has over quality of a Liberal joke. In the first place, it was a life; in the second, it was not funny; and in the third, it was calculated to give offense. 'I want to deny the story here and now as a stupid and foolish invention.'"

4,000 Called Him Dad, This King Oyo of Old
Fort Portal, Uganda, Africa—Old King Solomon may have been a monarch, but he could have taken lessons from King Oyo of a Uganda tribe, whose descendants will greet George Eastman, camera manufacturer of Hochester, N.Y. on his arrival with the party to hunt big game.
King Oyo, son of Okad, had many wives—just how many the adding machines refused to tell. But every one agrees that he had a nice little family of exactly 4,000 children.
King Oyo, Uganda annals say, lived to a high old age. His son, Chwa, a warlike monarch who perpetually raided the cattle of other tribes, was lured to his death by the Bachweel, who ambushed themselves in the forest and then lowed like cattle to draw him into their trap.
Polygamy is still an accepted institution here. Eastman will meet many families of wives under the supervision of the head wife. Wives are bought by their highlands for a certain number of head of cattle. If the wife is unfaithful, the husband sends her back to her father and asks for the return of her cattle payment. The chiefs of Uzigianian tribes are expected to lead their people on cattle raids, make rule when it is required and arrange for the sowing of their crops. Of late years the native chiefs have been grouped into tribes, or political assemblies which meet with the British administrative officers.

The Los Angeles Division held its mass meeting on February 8 at the usual hour. Our chaplain conducted the religious rites, after which "From Greenland's Ice Mountain" was sung. He took a text from St. Luke, 17th chapter, 21st verse, "The Kingdom of God is with Man." The sermon was very delightful. Our program then began after our noble first vice-president, introduced the master, of ceremonies, Mr. W. Jones, who read our aims and objects. Mr. R.

CENT. VERTIENTES, CUBA
If anything could have caused this little town especial pain it, was the death of Mr. Amos Rold, former acting president and chalmaker of this division. How we remember him an ardent worker, ever displaying a thoughtfulness, for the cause, and to lose such a vild character and dear one brings a deep and heavy shadow. On January 27, at 3:30 n. m., the neighborhood was aroused by the news that Mr. Rold was dead. The deceased was suffering a few days before, but no one was fully sensible of its dangerous tendency and of the fears always entertained by those around him that its termination would be fatal. He had borne his affliction with the fortitude of a Christian, and retained his faculties to his last moments, yielding his breath in full peace of mind and convinced that he was leaving this earthly pilgrimage for a better and happier one in another world. We scarcely know how to talk of consolation under so bitter an affliction.
The funeral service, held at 5 p.m., brought out a procession the first of its kind ever witnessed in Vertientes. It consisted of a band, 'Gails Guide, Black Cross Nurse, Legionnaires and friends.' The procession marched from the Rold home to Liberty Hall. As the comin reached the inside of the hall, the choir sang the anthem "Abba With Mr." the favorite song of the deceased. The funeral ceremonies were conducted by Mr. Edmund, chaplain, in Liberty Hall. At the grave the service was conducted by Messrs. J. N. Hicks and M. G. Murray, where hundreds were gathered to see his last place of rest. The decease left a wife to mourn his loss.
On Sunday, February 5, a mass meeting was held at Hoe's Hall, 415 Bloomfield avenue, Montclair, giving our loyal members a chance to help finance our school. The meeting was called to order at 8:15 p. m. by President Simon L. Fisher with our opening hymn, "From Greenland's Icy Mountain," and regular exercises were carried through. The meeting was then turned over to Miss Eleanor Nichols, who later president, who has charge of all our programs.
The program opened with the playing of a cornet solo by Mr. Joseph Wardell, 2nd vice-president, followed by an address given by Miss Eva Nixon. The program continued as follows: Vocal solo. Miss Mary Rudolph; piano solo. Mr. James Fuller; vocal trio, Misses Jurgen, Seaton and Stagger; gestation, Miss Myrtle Duncan; cornet solo, Mr. Herbert Rudolph; short talk on "Song." Mrs. Frances Lowry; vocal solo, Mr. S. H. Fisher; accompanied by Miss E. Fisher; short address, Bishop Cook; vocal solo, Miss Jurgen.
This closed the program and the meeting was taken over by the president, who discussed the work of the dlyision: Collection was then taken, followed by the singing of "Amosica" and the universal Ethiopian Anthem. The parting blessing was given by Bishop Cook.

Wilson, the 1st vice-president, in his talk, gave some very encouraging remarks. At this time the president asked the audience to stand and sing "God Bless Our President," after which he read the president's message in The New World, emphasizing the principle with great earnestness to the satisfaction of all present. Mr. Lew, the former chaplain of the division, was called upon next and gave a rousing speech.
Capt. Dean, who has spent about 40 years in Liberia, gave an interesting talk.
Miss Gaint, the principal supporter of the evening, held the audience spellbound. She opened by relating certain facts about the government policy in her home, Liberia. She gave us a real heart-to-heart talk, telling of her surprise at not finding Chicago the "Negro Heaven" as she had been informed. She also brought us greetings from the Liberia Division, of which she is secretary. The president real a telegram from the Hon. E. B. Knox, the American leader and personal representative of Mr. Givrey, and continued by thanking the members for their whole-hearted support, and asking them to continue their interest in the cause, the meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian Anthem and benediction.

Sunday night, February 5, found the Newark Division in-fall bloom. A musical musical program was arranged by the choir, under the leadership of Mr. Alonzo Amos, choir director, who also sang with much interest the well known song "Keep Cool," written by our leader.
Our first vice-president, Rev. J. Walker, was the master of ceremonies, and he gave us much food for thought with his interesting talk.
Next speaker on the program was Mr. Sam Franklin, who spoke on the subject "The Land of Our Forefathers," it was very impressive and well received by all. Ms. Ruby Green read the President-General's message, and the membership cheered to the echo when they heard what the Hon. Marcus Garvey sends to his devoted members as encouragement to fight on. Levi John James of the juvenile circle read the preamble, and the meeting was then turned over to the president, Hon. Charles L. James, who shook with fervor on the life of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Mr. James declared that our leader's whole life was and is dedicated to the cause of Negro's Emancipation. Meeting closed in the usual manner by singing "Ethiopian Anthem." MRS. MAMIE BLAND, Reporter.

The Oakland Division No. 188. U. N. I. celebrated in fitting style Garvey Day, on Sunday, February 5. The meeting began at 3:15 p.m. with Mr. G. E. Inman, president; in the chair. The opening ode was sung, followed by the religious exercises. The president, in his opening address, ably expounded the organization's principles, and the purpose of our meeting. He then introduced the chairman of the publicity committee, Mr. W. A. Deane, as master of ceremonies. Mr. Deane graciously thanked the president for the honor conferred on him and in a forceful and impressive manner recited to his hearers the history of Garvey Day, from February, 1925, to February, 1923, and the significance and importance of this Garvey Day, when the leader is again at large to dictate the policies and direct the destiny of 400,000,000 Negroes of the world.
"A juvenile member gave a nice reading and the audience was favored with a selection by Shaw's Orchestra, which was well appreciated. The orchestra is made up of seven promising young men, and the public is looking forward to a greater musical program each week. "Current Topics" were next read by the Hon. A. S. Gray, commissioner, for California. They were both instructive and inspiring. The President General's message followed next, read by Mr. J. McDonald. Our talented organist, then gave a piano selection which was excellently rendered, and received much applause. The "Objects and Alms" were able read by Mr. Denee, followed by another selection from Shaw's Orchestra, which was full of pop and made the audience sit up and take notice. The offering was taken, while the choir sang beautifully. The next number was a vocal solo by Miss L. Blake.
which was well received. The or-
chestra gave its list number, which
was indeed beautiful to listen to.
The masterpiece of the evening was now, ready to be delivered by the speaker of the day, Dr. William Watts, of Watts Sanitarium. The learned doctor was fittingly introduced by Mr. Deano. And, for forty minutes, the speaker held his audience spellbound in a rapturous flow of brilliant and illuminating thoughts. The doctor began by recounting a brief history of his institution and the great service he endeavored to render to his fellowmen and humanity in general during his brief period, of four years in Oakland. Then with a sudden flow of brilliant oratory, the speaker vividly portrayed, in a most arresting and convincing manner, the great possibility and practicability of the Hon. Marcus Garvey's program of African Redemption and Negro nationhood. The address was a masterpiece, delivered by a master mind, a profound thinker, an able scholar and one of the most brilliant and distinguished men of our race in California. The doctor was the recipient of a great oation at the close of his great literary treat. His deep thoughts will linger long in our memory. In the next six or eight weeks the doctor is expecting to leave for Marshall, Texas, to be chief surgeon in charge of a five-story first-class manorium. We predict, for Dr. Watts a very bright and prosperous future in his new field of labor and our very best wishes go with him.
The last number was a vocal solo by Mr. Llewellyn, which was well rendered. The visitors were introduced and the announcements given. Mr. Deane announced that Sunday, February 12, would be "Negro History Day," and the Rev. Dr. G. E. Colman would be the speaker of the day. A high-class literary and musical program is being prepared, Commissioner A. S. Gray announced the monster mass meeting of the Lincoln's Birthday celebration at the Oakland Auditorium ballroom on February 13 at 8 p.m. given by the Oakland Division. The entire public of the East Bay cities is cordially invited to attend these meetings. The Ethiopian National Anthem was sung and "like" benediction pronounced.

BROOKLYN, N. Y.
On Sunday, February 5, the members of the Brooklyn Division wore in high spirits, particularly the ladies, because it was their Sunday. Besides it was Garvey Day, which made it all the more important. Meeting began at 5 p. m. at the Hall, 380 Cumberland street. Mrs. Martha D'Oyley, lady president of the division, presided. The principal speaker of the afternoon was Mrs. T. Brookes, wife of the commissioner, for the States of New York and New Jersey. Being a very fluent speaker, Mrs. Brookes held her audience with rant attention while she discoured on the responsibilities of our women to the Negro Race. Mrs. Davila, in response to the speaker of the afternoon, placed the blame on the black men, whose lack of ambition, she thought, was the crux of the whole matter, and incidentally the cause of many woes.
Anent Negro History Week, which is celebrated everywhere in the United States during the week of February 5, Mrs. Ira L. Gibbons, a Brooklyn Research Society member, said a few words. He enlightened his hearers on the importance of studying Negro history and the future effect which it has upon civilization. Reminding them also that no attention was to be paid to pseudo-historians who have obscured the facts of the history of the black man, twisted every episode, and thus pampered a prejudice which affords an access to the white man's naive assumptions.
Mr. Knight, second lady vice president, made a few remarks, after which a vocal mole was rendered by one of the officers of the division. Mr. F. Levi Lord, a visitor, spoke on the "Three outstanding leaders in the world's history." In the course of his talk he brought out Moses, Christ and Garvey as the three outstanding ones.

PROF. M. A. FIGUEROA, Editor
Porque teme el blanco que Marcus Garvey unifique la raza negra? El prevenir al líder que predique a los suyos determina debilidad. La tal llamada superioridad se aniquila calla vez mas con sus actos de cobardia.
Conciudadanos de la raza:
Me abriga la esperanza de que vuestra fé en el destino de nuestra raza permanece aun firme, no permitiendo que la propaganda vil destruya vuestros planes y vuestras aspiraciones. Los que analisamos los acontecimientos humanos, notamos el sinnúmero de redes tendidas en el camino de la raza negra hacia su enaltecimiento.
El universo entero trata a toda costa de mantener al negro en la ignorancia, para robarle facilmente y usurparle sus derechos. Se pone en práctica toda clase de artimañas y por mucho tiempo se ha explotado la masa de nuestro pueblo. Recientemente se ententó mortificar la honestidad de aquellos liders, quienes consagran en el altar de los ideales de su raza menospreciando la influencia extránea. Como prueba de ello se trata de anularme interceptándose el paso a cada instante en la lucha por el reconocimiento del derecho del negro.
Ninguna raza considera la nuestra en los términos de confraternidad. En muchas partes se ha legislado para restringir la inmigración del negro. Esta actitud me lleva a la conclusión de que ningun elemento de nuestro pueblo en ningún sitio, debiera asistir en manera alguna a cualquier nación que tenga en sus estatutos una ley que le descrimine. Toda raza o nación que describe a cierto grupo no debe contar con su cooperación; debe esperar identico cumplido cuando ese mismo grupo se encuentre en condiciones para hacerlo.
Nuestro pueblo unificado será lo suficientemente fuerte para poner en práctica cualquier programa y demandar el respeto de los demas pueblos; es más que numeroso para protejerse; es ingenioso para inventar y producir en arte, ciencia, industria, comercio, etc. Porque, entonces, no arraigarnos y permanecer fieles a los principios de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra. Ella solamente mira al mundo a través del prisma de la actual condición de nuestra raza, y se arana y lucha para remediar el mal.
A nada debemos temer. Lo peor de la vida y del esfuerzo humano es la muerte, y todos tenemos que sucumbir a ella. Porque, entonces, vivir como siervos sin derechos, cuando podemos demandar el reconocimiento de estos y disfrutar de todos y cada uno de los privilegios que disfrutan los otros pueblos? Un futuro mas brillante nos espera toda vez unifiquemos nuestra potencialidad de raza, para llevar a vías realizables el programa de mayor progreso que pueblos alguno haya patrocinado.
Ciertos grupos y ciertas naciones estan tenazmente opuestos a vuestro enaltecimiento y recurren a todos los medios para impedirme el que os predique el evangelio de redención. Tales esfuerzos-revelan su debilidad y cobardía. Por medio de mi determinación he de demostrar al universo entero el valor intrinsico del negro y el derecho inalienable que le caracteriza, como parte integrante del genero humano.
Considero la tal llamada superioridad del hombre blanco como una mera broma. El intenta prohibir la circulación de este, semanario, vocero de nuestro movimiento de progreso; teme a mi personalidad y a la influencia que ejerzo en las masas de mi propio pueblo. Estas actuaciones le exponen como el ser mas temegoso en este siglo de luz. Ellas no tienen justificación alguna y solamente aumentan rencor en su obra de usurpasion.
Prohibe la circulación del Negro World y mi entrada en uno u otro país, pero estad en la ceteza, negros del universo, que vuestra emancipación y la redención de Africa no ha de ser un sueno irrealizable.

Tenemos a la vista un recorte de "La Tribuna" de San José de Costa Rica, y con honda pena leemos las manifestaciones injustas, que de una manera vedada y huerfana de información periodística, hace el diario costarrenze de acerca de Marcus Garvey, quien a estas horas sigue allá en su tierra natal, la isla de Jamaica, la prédica de la nueva orientación del negro del presente.
No parece sino que la Tribuna" como periódico, como prensa de orientación, carece del crédito informativo que cinéatheque al cuarto poder en todas las comunidades civilizadas.
La república de Costa Rica, apesar de tener el sello de una puraurea racial mas o menos establecida, tiene que admitir que su contexto etnico ha pasado, pasa y pasará por el hibridismo que sustentan los paises sur y concentroantericanos, por haberle sido imposible, sustraerse a la influencia determinante del elemento etiópico, al ser traído de playas africanas y expatriado en tierras indo-americanas, para bochornosa explotación esclavista.
Si la posición geográfica fuera mutable y a las evoluciones del globo terráquico les fuera dable la trasposición de los pueblos a latitudes alternadas, y Costa Rica estuviese situada al norte del continente asiatico, estamos en la seguridad que "La Tribuna" y el gobierno de Costa Rica no inimitar la inensatez projucicial de la nigrofobia angloamericana.
Marcus Garvey siendo un negro celébre, dentro de las exigencias etimológicas y del formato constitucional del, estado costarrizense, no tendria impedimenta a entrar al terrificorio de la republica. Mas el hecho de que la causa predicada y defendida por Marcus Garvey no simpatiizara con los rubios nortesios, hace que Costa Rica, por via de initación y por ganar prescas con su poderoso hermano del norte, coharte indiscretamente la libertad y la acción de este apostol de su raza, que nintificaría a nadie ve cumpliendo un deber de lider, exiliarando a los suyos-para que se prepare moral, social, industrial, política y económicamente, saliendo así avantes en la ardua lucha por una mejor existencia.
Declaramos que es una falsedad las imputaciones, que de una manera tan viciosa y mortificante para el Hon. Marcus Garvey, da a la publicidad "La Tribuent", de San José de Costa Rica, haiciendose eco de lo escondaloso y falto de verdad que a diario lleva a sus columnas, la prensa amarilla deaste pasa.
La ley de hospitalidad, lo libre y democrática que impresa en Costa Rica y lo liberal de sa estado constituido, antagoniza la decision despestiva, que segun "La Tribuenta", ha dado el gobierno instruyendo a sus consules respectivos, para no visar pasa porte alguno en favor de Marcus Garvey, quien a decir de ese periciódico, nuestro lider es conceptuado como UN HOMBRE PELIGROSO.
2. Trataron los Estados Unidos y aun la misma Inglaterra tan rudamente a Edmond de Valera? 4.
Las cuestiones fodas de la hu-
madidad tienen el color del cristal con que se mitan. Y "La Tribuna" y el gobierno de Costa Rica oostenan gafas negras en esta ocasión.
Se ha dicho de antemano que la grandeza de un hombre es considerada por la cantidad y calidad de los anigos y enemigos que es mismo hombre se haya creado. Cuando Napoleon-Bonaparte se elevo a la cispide de la fama y del dominio en Europa,enia-mas enemigos que amigos; y cuando muchos invidiaban sus conquistas y glorias, sus enemigos, planeaban su derrota. Luego de perderlo todo en Waterloo, le vimos solo, desolado, cual otro Mario ante las ruinas de Cartago.
La preisa de Europa y America ha significado recientemente a Marcus Garvey como una figura, altamente estimada por los negros del universo, sugriendo la necesidad de anular de uno o otro modo. Esta practica se ha llevado a cabo por algunos años, sin haber obtenido aun el resultado capital. Marcus Garvey ha permanecido en la línea de combate y sus adeptos y simuladores han demostrado su lealidad, tanto en la tormenta como en las horas de bonanza.
Es algo rudo el castigar a una persona que reusa ser asotada; es difícil el anular a un líder cuyos adeptos reusan desertarle: Asi acontece con el fundador y president general de la Asociación Universal para el Adelchoita de la Raza Negra.
Refutando una falsedad publica en las "Noticias del Mundo" de Londres congeniente a su direction, Marcus Garvey demuestra a sus enemigos su capacidad, para defenderse y esclarecer fos hechos en la labor altruista en que se ha empilado para beneficio de su raza. El ha sido ultradajo, reducido a prisión; pero ello no le ha desalentado en su obra; y aquellos que en el cree y con el piensan aportan cada vez más todas sus energias, toda su operación a la causa redentora.

Hittites Tablet, 1,000
Years Old, Deciphered
NEW HAVEN—The first Hittite
document to be interpreted in Amer-
icas has been deciphered by Prof. Ralph
H. Sturtevant, noted linguist of
Yale University. It is a clay tablet that
has lain buried for more than 8,000
years and was inscribed in a language
totally forgotten for almost that long.
The late Prof. Albert T. Clay bought
it for the Yale Babylonian collection
from a design in antiquities. Where
the dealer gift is not known, but its
appearance, the shape of the charac-
ters on it and the inscription suggest
it came from the village of Angora, the
present capital of Turkey. Very likely,
Prof. Sturtevant said, it was stolen by
a laborer during the excavations car-
ried on there by the German archaeo-
logist, Hugo Winkler, in 1907 and 1908.
The language and inscription is that of the Hittite empire, which was very powerful in the fourteenth and thirteenth centuries, B.C. and whose capital, Hattusad, was on the site of Boghaus Keul. Its power was broken and the capital destroyed about 1200 B.C. by invading barbarians from Europe. The system of writing in use among the Hittites, known as cuneiform writing, was borrowed from the Babylonians. The characters consist of wedge-shaped indentations. These were made in the soft clay with a square stick, and there is evidence that practice gave the scribes great facility in the process, so that the rather complicated characters were made much more rapidly than they can be copied with pen and ink.
The translation of the tablet shows it contains directions for performing two sacrifices to Innaras, the god of manhood. The purpose of the first sacrifice is to drive out the effeminate Innaras and to bring in the masculine Innarah, so that sons may be born to the sacrificer. The second sacrifice is designed to avett the anger of Innaras:
Some Newspapers Issued That Public Never Sees
There are some newspapers that the public never sees. One of these is the Hue and Cry, published by Scotland Yard, London's metropolitan police. It is the daily connecting link between Scotland Yard and every town and district in England, but only police officers and high officials ever see it. It contains private and confidential information concerning men and women who are wanted, but who have vanished from their familiar haunts, vivid word sketches of missing persons, and many items that notorious crooks would give much to know, says the Detroit News.
"The British railway companies issue a daily journal for the benefit of interested members of their staffs, and this publication also is kept from the public. This paper prints a record of the articles the railroads have on hand. One issue reported that the roads and on their premises, crocodiles, beavers, beetles, tadpoles, a collection of gods, serpents and ancient human remains.

PARIS—Fast 12-hour postal services from Paris to New York, at 30 cents a letter, looks like a solution of the trans-Atlantic air problem to the French aeronautic service. It is calculated that ships now designed could operate profitably on that basis, as a commencement.
Twenty government air burials all over the world, it is said, are working on long distance aerial service and France, like other countries, has its plans.
An 18-ton airship, that would carry 12 passengers to New York for a $2,000 fare, and freight at 8 a pound, is the proposal of government experts. It would carry 5,000 gallons of granoline and make the trip by the Azores with a stop also possible at the Hormidas. In 48 hours.
Louis Blierlot, the first to fly across the English Channel, has fathered the idea of a giant passenger and freight plane that would carry a motor-lifeboat that would be released automatically if the airship struck water.
French airplane builders are confident trans-Atlantic flying will be on a commercial basis in ten years, or so but for the present they feel French aviation is ham-strung by the fast the army controls, production and design, being the biggest customer, but they look forward to a time when the army and mays will encourage the manufacture of the big, long distance, freight carrying filters.
Not One Rail Passenger Killed in September
R. H. Alshent, president of the American Railway, Association, recently told a group of 130 officers of Eastern and Canadian railroads, assembled at the Hotel Commodore for their midwinter safety conference, that statistics show that during the month of September every passenger carried by the American railroads had been transported without a fatality. The conference was presided over by Charles E. Hill, general safety agent of the New York Central lines. Short addresses were made by railroad officers. It was pointed out that a reduction of 5 percent in fatalities to railroad employees had been coincident with a similar reduction of fatalities to passengers, and that it was new safety ride in a train than to walk on the streets of New York.

THE PEOPLE'S FORUM
The February issue of the Crisis magazine contains an article entitled "Marcus Garvey, and the N. A. C. P." which for inconsistency, calamity, and argumental perversion has no equal. It is truly disappointing and disheartening to learn that our most celebrated educators and writers could resort to dehumanizing, malign, and misrepresent their competitors.
All persons familiar with Hon. Marcus Garvey's early activities in this country understand that his purpose in coming to the United States was, not to oppose or destroy existing organizations, but rather to secure their cooperation in the larger and more effective solution of the so-called "race problem." Unfortunately, his unimprecedented success around the world has led to political politicians and pseudo-leaders to the extent of their vowing, "Garvey must go!"
Well, now Garvey has gone, but apparently his persecutors are not satisfied—they continue to dabble in mud-slinging. The purpose of the reprint, so they state, is for the "sake of historical accuracy." Whow! Shades of Daniel Webster. If such presentation of "data" is termed "accuracy," then furnish us another word for "truth and honesty."
Such unwarranted attacks or stabs in the back will not deceive the soberminded members of the Negro race, but they do lessen, our respect and consideration for the so-called "Advancement (7) Association." It is not Garvey that is being assaulted, but theigrant that is being assaulted, which the fault is intended. You will have to come again, old dears. We intend to stand by our accepted leader and the noble organization that he founded until our program of national freedom and racial emancipation is realized.
In the same issue of the Crisis their appears portions of a debate held between Mr. Du Bois and Mr. Lothrop Stoddard on the social equality and racial inter-marriage question. For Mr. Du Bois, his fight for the privilege of the unharmed association of "the intelligent" white and colored people" will bring him to his grave. The converted members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are not concerned about, such non-essentials—they are bully enthousiasm, the unimaginative social dignity and pobs womanhood. Racial purity and racial development is our aim; social recognition of other races is immutable to the majority of our race. Free men do not
them by the majority group. They have only "extended" such rights, to be rejected should they no decide, by popular approval. Judging from the attitude of the Southland, the "probation of such extinction" has proven decidedly unofficial. Again, we extend to all persons sincerely deprived of working for the ultimate solution of Negro liberty and freedom, an open invitation to join the greatest organization of Negro peoples

But we must learn well the lesson of our leader, "Negroes, know thyself." Learn to appreciate the good of our race, when one starts out. In the fields of advancement don't laugh, don't mock, don't join others to ridicule him, and if he will help him to rise. With your assistance he will be able to climb the ladder of success to the top. Let us then learn our lessons well. Thanks to the Hon.

Tokio. Feb. 12. At midnight the list of candidates for the general election closes. The candidates for the 454 seats mow number 982, and the few more who may come forward will not affect the general election. The two historical parties are almost equally balanced, the Selvigal who has 350 men in the field and the Mimisato 343. The Independents, a title which covers the cautious politician who expects to be elected on their local popularity and thereafter support the Government of the day on what terms they can make, must be balanced. The Business Party, whose platform has the best expression, "sane liberalism" before the electors, has 21 candidates. Labor's various groups total 85, of which the Right Wing candidate number 58.
The change that manhood suffrage, operating for the first time, has introduced into the former machine-made system is shown by the inability of the oldest electorsmen to predict the result. Mr. Ashikar, a commissioned man is managing the Selyukal "campaign," declared today that manhood suffrage has brought in so many new factors that he is unable to forecast the result. He was certain that other the Selyukal or Minske will lead, but that it was impossible, to say when. The Anahi's forecast is the Selyukal 217 and the Minske 210. About 10 is still the best guess for Labor.

Judging this election by the ordinary standards in Western countries; it leaves little doubt that the Japanese have successfully assimilated the lessons in democracy, which their thirty-year experience with representative government under a limited franchise has given them. Many of the displaced civil and politics and displaced politicians, but the younger men are keen to show strong party feelings.
Election meetings are rigid highly all over Tokyo and are well attended. Walls are covered with posters and the output of election literature is enormous. The contest is a parish struggle between the historical parties rather than a battle between programs and events, which look at it and events, which they will vote for their favorite. That aspect is less important than the general acceptance of democracy, which is seen everywhere. The conception that the common people can make, and unmake Governments is still novel in Japan, and to many older people it is scarcely cred-

POISON BLOOD
H. H. Von Schick, herb speculist and manufacturer of the famous Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea, tells people that almost all diseases are caused by injure, poisoned blood. When the stomach is sick you feel miserable, you are constipated and the poisons go into the blood. When the liver is reactive, you are sick with blood; when the kidneys are weak and out of order more poison goes into the blood and the result is that your body is sick all over. For many years I have been telling people sick with diseases caused by poisoned blood that my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea gives relief to those who suffer from stomach, liver, kidney and blood troubles. I say to every man and woman that suffers from sickness to try my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea to help people will suffer other medicines that they know that the roots, barkes, herbs, plants and flowers are pore and help to make them well again.
