The Negro Must Not Delude Himself; Instead Of Sighing For "White House" Build A "Black House" In His Africa
The following is an excerpt from an article from the pen of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which appeared in Current History Magazine. September, 1923, and which is reproduced in "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," vol. 2:
Race Adjustments Necessary
"We feel that there is absolutely no reason why there should be any differences between the black and white races, if each stop to adjust and steady itself. We believe in the purity of both races. We do not believe the black man should be encouraged in the idea that his highest purpose in life is to marry a white woman, and we do believe that the white man should be taught to respect the black woman in the same way as he wants the black man to respect the white woman. It is a vicious and dangerous doctrine of social equality to urge, as certain colored leaders do, that black and white should get together, for that would destroy the racial purity of both.
Preventing the Clash
"We believe that the black people should have a country of their own, where they should be given the fullest opportunity to develop politically, socially and industrially. The black people should not be encouraged to remain in white people's countries and expect to be Presidents, Governors, Mayors, Senators, Congressmen, Judges and social and industrial leaders. We believe that with the rising ambition of the Negro, if a country is not provided for him in another 50 or 100 years, there will be a terrible clash that will end disastrously to him and disgrace our civilization. We desire to prevent such a clash by pointing the Negro to a home of his own. We feel that all well-disposed and broad-minded white men will aid in this direction. It is because of this belief no doubt that my Negro enemies, so as to prejudice me further in the opinion of the public, wickedly state that I am a member of the Ku Klux Klan, even though I am a black man.
A Vain Belief
"White men who have struggled for and built up their countries and their own civilizations are not disposed to hand them over to the Negro, or any other race, without let or hindrance. It would be unreasonable to expect this. Hence any vain assumption on the part of the Negro to imagine that he will one day become President of the Nation, Governor of the State, or Mayor of the City in the countries of white men, is like waiting on the devil and his angels to take up their residence in the realm on high and direct there the affairs of Paradise."
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,

DR. HAROLD MOODY MAKES A PLEA FOR JUSTICE AND UNDERSTANDING IN LECTURE ON "WORLD OF COLOR"
Hits Prejudice of the Powerful Against Men of Color and Christianity with Jesus Christ Left Out—Unfair Treatment Must React Disastrously Upon the Whole World.
BLACK MEN CANNOT BE TRAMPLED ETERNALLY
Interracial Problems Must Be Solved, Not Shelved—The Brotherhood Way Is the Only Way, Unless Disintegration and Death Are to Follow—Startling Reminders From History
(From the Jamaica Gleaner, March 2)
The following is a speech delivered in London at the Whitfield's men's meeting recently, by Dr. Harold Moody, a son of Jamaica, on "The Brotherhood Way in the Modern World—the World of Color." The first part of this lecture was published in last-week's issue of The Negro World.
Adam was undoubtedly a min of color and so was the Christ-whom we worship and to whom the world in general and Europe in particular owes so much. And to come still nearer-home, SC Augusting, who brought Christianity to Britain, was himself of African descent.
How can fair-minded Britain ever despair a people because of their color? Indeed, I am proud to think as I am proud to be, a member of this great empire, that as a nation Britain never has. Individual sons of Britain and people in another Slum have become contaminated with other ideas, who have, may I say, "fallen from grace," may have done so, but Britain herself never has.
TANGIER SQUABBLE PROCEEDS APACE
Delegates and Experts of Bri-
Indeed, how could any sand imbed people despite another because of their color per se? Color is a natural pigment with which nature endows the individual in order to protect him from the powerful rays of the sun—it is only skin deep. How disappointed our ladies are if they do not pigment when they go for a holiday? Medical men are now discovering in this new light treatment that it is only those whose skins readily pigment that make good subjects for such treatment. Color is destined to occur, a more important place in our thoughts than beretofore.
You take my word for it that the day is fast coming, when the man of color will no longer demonstrate his weakness to the world and thus be untrue to himself and his heritage by attempting to oppose for white. He will be proud of his color, as I am. My mother gave it to me, and no better women ever walked this earth. His pride will be still greater when he professes that the British people today owe their strength to their tremendous admixture—Norman, Saxon, Dane, African, Ronan, Picts, Scotts, Irish and others. And America, growing daily in wealth and strength, is probably representative of every nation living in it. I will go even further and say that, in my outfit, just as Rome gave us law, Greece the classics, the Norman chivalry, China printing and the merchant's compass, India philosophy thought, Africa will some day have her "treasure to bring unto the king" and perchance this may be brotherhood—the art of living together in peace.
To conclude this portion of my subject I will again say most emphatically that color is not one of the basic causes of the lack of the brotherhood way in the modern world, nor indeed it ever be so. It may be a convenient, yet on which terms with his other prejudices, but that is all and it can be nothing more than that. These other prejudices, I have not time now with which to deal.

Delegates and Experts of Brigand Nations Meet in Paris
Paris, March 20—Fifteen delegates and experts represent France, Spain, Great Britain and Italy today attended the opening session of the Tuxer conference which, according to the host information, will strictly conform its agenda to consideration of two principal issues: the first of these is a plan for the revision of administrative control in the international zone recently elaborated by Spain and France. The second is a proposal which Italian delegates have come prepared to submit regarding Italian participation in that control.
It is asserted emphatically that the powers of this conference do not extend to a discussion of any alteration of the French and Spanish zones in the Mediterranean situation, but only to questions concerning the international zone.
Porter Minister, Ireland, who entertained the delegates at Qual O'Derry Hincheon, emphasized this point in his address in presiding at the first meeting, before turning over leadership of the French delegation to Philippe Bhelot, Under Secretary of the Foreign Office. Under Secretary of the French delegation, the other reedings at Tandier. M. Bhelot assured the British and Italian delegates, "You will see that the modifications which the French and Spanish Governments have made to the 1923 accord respect in every way the interests of all the powers. We are only adding your collaboration in the work of perfecting and improving an administrative organization which has shown itself to be incomplete and lacking in collaboration." At this session the Italian delegates did not develop their thesis, but it was indicated that all the powers represented were not up to giving Italy a reasonable share in the administration of the zone.
Lord Crewe, Quinones de Leon and Count Mangan, respectively the British, Spanish and Italian Ambassadors to France, head their delegations, but during the first few sittings only exports will attend.
Is a Rhymed Will
A Legal Document?
Is a will made in rhyme a legal document as applied to real estate?
This is the curious question now being investigated by one of New York's big title and mortgage company. Examiner's in the legal department of the company who were searching title to property in the county across this unique document from the panel of one Morris Dietch;
"All my earthly goods I have in my life
To my dear wife I leave for ever more.
I freely give no limit do I fix.
This is my will and she executes"
"The senior vice-president of the big title and mortgage company has himself undertaken the investigation of the hitherto unexperienced problem—the legality of a whimsy will to dispose of real estate.
Great Australian Dam
Australia, will possess one of the largest reservoir dams in the world when the huge Huma Dam, which is to impound the wafer of the Murray River in Australia, is completed in 1920. A hydroelectric plant is to be erected in connection with this monumental project, which will make electric power available to a region within about 150 miles of the world.
Bill Provides $500,000
For Survey of Route
Of Nicaragua Canal
WASHINGTON, March 22 - Authorization for President Coolidge to spend as much as $500,000 for a complete survey of a canal across Nicaragua was proposed in a bill introduced in the Senate today by Senator Edge or New Jersey, chairman of the Committee on Intercoastal Canals.
The bill would give the President powers for a "fall and complete investigation and survey of the canal through the Secretary of War and supervision of the chief of engineers, to gov'ts and bring to date the report of the Establishment Commission to Congress December 4, 1901, and to determine the best canal route through Nicaragua territory.
Specifically, the investigation and survey would ascertain:
1. The most practicable route for an intercoastal ship canal by way of the San Juan River and Great Lake of Nicaragua, or by way of any route over Nicaragua territory.
2. The most appropriate cost of the construction and maintenance of such canal.
3. The cost or acquiring all private rights, privileges, and franchises. If any, pertaining to such rents.
Senator Odea asked in his will that the investigation and survey be made for the convenience of vessels for the convenient passage of vessels of such tonnage and draft as may reasonably be anticipated.
Improving Conditions In a Florida City
ORLANDO, Fla., March 23—The Orlando DO, step, leading daily paper of this city, commends as follows on the work of the local Interracial Committee, appointed two years ago by the Chamber of Commerce: "New people in Orlando realize the good work being done by the Interracial Committee of this city. White citizens has been working in conjunction with a committee of representative colored citizens for the betterment of the entire community. That section of the city occupied by the colored population has been made more sanitary, the streets are better lighted, the homes are made more attractive and the business houses in that section are up to high standards of operation between the two races." Playgrounds and a lake for swimming are other improvements noted as a result of these efforts.
Spain Takes Strong Steps To Get Rid of Mendicants
MADRID, March 22—General Marienne Anibie, Minister of the interior and one of the strong ones of General Primo de Rivera's Government, is determined to cure the prostitute of professional morality, which checks visitors to the principal cities of Spain. More than 400 of these "new-worlds" have been sent by the Madrid police and sent, back to the places of their birth, so that the streets of the capital will be comparatively clear for at least the time they need to look away back. Most of the mentions in Spain are blind, but this does not mean that there are really more blind in Spain than in other nations. What happens that they all go to the streets, where they can make a far better living from alms than from working at a trade in one of many mystics provided for their welfare.
Poor Baby's Choice to Live
Held 6 Times That of Rich
DES MOINES, March 23.—Tables of poor families in Des Moines have six through nine in chance of living through the first year in those of the city's well-to-do, according to figures given this week in a report of the Des Moines Public Health Nursing Association.
Only 1 baby of every 100 in poor circumstances dies during its first year, while 6 of every 100 in families of easy circumstances die before they reach the age of 1 year, according to the report.
"The figures were declared 'notounding' by Miss Edith Countrynan, Director of the Public Health Nursing of the State Department of Health.
Education in hygienic methods is believed to be the reason for the difference in the death rates of the rich and the poor habiles.
Belgium May Discard Burial For Cremation
BRUSSELS, March 21.—Belgium, which has the greatest population to the square mile of any European country, 688, compared with 320 for Great Britain, 348 for Germany and 187 for France, may discard the custom of burying the dead and adopt compulsory cremation if it is campaign started by the authorities or other Belgian cities prove successful. It is pointed out that, because of the limitations of the country and its interpopulation, cemeteries take up enormous areas of valuable land. Moreover, under the present system, many premature burials occur, since frequently no doctor is called to certify to death, village priests being empowered to sign the certificate. Today the body must be cremated, the body must be sent to Paris. This is a costly procedure. Since a tax must be paid to every commune through which the body passes.
Disarmment may sound good for firearms and pistols, but for knives and that we live in, where we have so many robbers and phanders. You keep a pistol or a gun, in your home because the robber is at large, and you are afraid while you sleep he will creep through the window or get through the door and make an attempt to rob your property; and because you know he is at large, and may pay you a ylist, you sleep with a gun under your arm. You are afraid and all the robbers are in fall, then we will throw away our pistols and our guns. Now everybody knows that the robber is at large; he is not only robbing domestic homes, he is robbing contiments. - Marcus Garvey, in speech delivered November 6, 1921.
LIFE OF WORKERS IN PORTO RICO VERY DESPERATE
"Most Prosperous Country Has Poorest People," Coolidge is Shown—U. S. Shareholders Reap the Dividends—Home Rule Wanted
Contending that prosperity in Porto Rico benefited stockholders of Porto Rico corporations who live in the United States—rather than natives of the island, Alfonso Lustra Charries, a member of Porto Rico Chamber of Deputies and former speaker of the House, in a letter to President Coolidge, made public at Hotel Dolmont, New York, on the 23rd inst., urged that the status of the island be changed so that Porto Rico elect is own Governor.
Mr. Charierz letter was in response to a letter written by the President on March 15 to Governor Horace M. Towner and in reply to a message brought from the Porto Rico Legislature, by Colonel Charles A. Linhardt when he returned from his good will flight to Latin America.
Do Not Ask Independence.
Mr. Charierz said Porto Rico did not want absolute Independence, as he thought the President inferred. The President's attitude that the Trinity of Paris, ceding Porto Rico to the United States, may promise to the people of Porto Rico "he said, and did not abasse this country from the obligation to give Porto Rico a popular form of government.
"Is It Republican rule where the Governor, without being elected by the people, has unlimited authority to vote the laws of the legislative power, to suspend Constitutional guarantees and to prohibit normal exercise of habeas corpus?" asks Mr. Charley if his letter to the governor now allows the cooperative condition of the Porto Rico people more critical. Porto Rico is the most prosperous country in America. Yet an crushing quality Porto Rico is the poorest people on earth. Land Owners Live in United States. "The central and the coastal lands belong to the extent of 65 percent to American corporations. In those kinds are sown cane and tobacco, the principal product of the country. The shareholders of those corporations are people who live in Boston, New York, Chicago and other cities of the United States. The dividends distributed are the same as the dividends Porto Rico. The country only benefits from the cash invested in the cultivation and in the manufacture of tobacco and sugar.
"The wages of the agricultural workers do not exceed $1 for eight hours of work. The Porto Rica worker can barely feed himself, is very poorly educated, is not a mate, under more desperate conditions than the most unfortunate of workers in the world." Mr. Charles expressed the hope that the aspirations of Porto Rico to elect its own Governor would be an issue in the coming Presidential campaign. "We are not a patriotic American opinion, in denying justice to a weak people, will seek refuge behind the old right of conquest."

MUSSOLINI WARS AGAINST ARABS IN NORTH AFRICA
Duke of Apuglie Leads Native Troops and Fascists Against Stalwart Tribes—War in Progress on 800-Mile Front
---
ROME. Fighting the Arab rebels on the desert, in the Italian colonies of North Africa, has been recently undertaken on a scale greater than any operations since Italy took possession of Tripitania in 1912. The war zone covers 800 miles in circumference and its oases and towns, where formerly rebels had, been occupied. It was in hiding places in distant oases that ammunition could be stored and hard-pursued rebels could seek shelter from Italian troops.
A few weeks ago it was decided that the campaign in Lybia or in Cyrenaica should be consolidated so that General Dobo, governor of Tripoli, could direct the operations by radio, while General Grazianl, known as the man who commanded the siege from Cyprus, directed operations on the spot. The Duke of the Apugle, son of the Duke of Aosta, commanded the camel troops on the desert, wearing an Arab sape, a black and white burghous over his head and without shoes and stockings, like a Tauren warrior.
Keep Tribes Divided
The operations were, began simultaneously, two column advancing from Bu-Naeim, and the other two from Aqdabla. The main object at first was to prevent the rebels under Uuid Stiklman from rushing to the aid of the Mogar tribe which up to a few months ago had been wrestled in their territory, and friendly to Italy while helping, the rebels whenever they sought shelter in their district.
It was on January 3 that the expedition advanced, and then week later the towns on the coast, which for fourteen years have been held by these nomad tribes, were occupied by Italian troops. The Mogarche tribes were forced to submit. Bu-Ngim became an Italian base for sixteen days the columns which were sent to the coast toward the walls of Tegrif, the most important watering post in the Sirtica desert, as it is the only water within 100 miles. The troops advanced through the stony bed on the river Uad Bay, with cliffs on both sides, shielding them from the robbs. It was a colorful army. The Epitacan lascars wore the red tez, with their guns slung over their shoulders. The Lybian lascar also wore the red tez, with their guns wore and cloak with no Duke of Apuglia at their head. Black-shirt troops on camels co-operated. There were 4,400 camels in this caravan.
They reached Locu—a town without a population. The Suliman had partly destroyed it, as he never forgave the people for submitting to Italy thirteen years ago. Globa was occupied and likewise Sella. Up to a few hours before the Italians entered this epigone post in the desert it had been the headquarters of rebel nomads. They escaped before they could be captured. The Duke of Anguilla pursued them across the desert, but the main column advanced to Sella. The occupation of this coast was most important, as for fourteen years it has been held by the rebels.
Drivo Robele Into Desert
With Locena occupied, as well as Sella, the rebels were forced farther inside the desert toward Togril. There were two reasons why they wished to hold this post. The first was that water was plentiful for their horses, camels and themselves. But the second reason was that it was on the only caravan route, not only to Bensalam but to Togril, for whose salo this rebel warfare is being undertaken, have numerous followers. One hundred miles, divided Sida from Togril.
The flying colors of the Italian forces began their advance toward the edge of the hollow in which lay the wells. For another sixteen days they marched. The rebels, who had succeeded in escaping from Sella, took up their place below the rim of the slope. The Excelsior had have one great disadvantage in this rebel warfare as they march forward the enemy with their hooks' alert, they believe that they go straight to Heaven if they die in battle. The Arabs, on the other hand, lie on the sand belting a tree of a saddle and slate at the enemy. It is calculated that an Arab can save five or six of the wells, those rebels have been engaged in guerrilla warfare for the last thirteen years and thus have an advantage over the present Italian troops.
Rebels Fight Every Inch
The advance toward the wells through the trees of the oasis was impeded by rebels who fought every inch. Thirteen miles separated the advance troops from the rear. For three hours fighting continued, until the rebels, seeing that numbers were against them, in order to be able to fight again.
The wells, had never been approached before by Europeans. Arab caravans from Fazanan have used it for centuries. The tactics of the Italian leaders were to allow the Arabs to escape and then surround them when they were away from shelter.
Inch by inch the rebels fought their around, a desperate fight which lasted nearly five hours. Those who were in the middle of the war of the Udai Al Gajjar and the distant mountains. A message was sent from the oasis to the distant headquarters, 150 miles away, for airplanes so that the wounded Italian troops could be taken to the hospital.
"The adoption of Christianity is a serious matter, to a native male of the South African jungle, involving, as it does, a final and definite break with that comforting tradition of his forbears which degrees that work in the province of womankind. Missionary conditions are none the less very promising there, according to Bishop E. S. Johnson, who arrived here on the United States liner Leviathan recently on his way to attend the forthcoming quadennial conference of the Methodist-Episcopal church at Kansas City.
Bishop Johnson has labored in southern Africa for thirty years, having spiritual charge of all that part of Africa which lies south of the equator. It is a missionary district of American Methodism, and has its main church in Cape Town, Dr. Johnson said. For thirty years now he has traveled anywhere from twelve to twenty-two thousand miles over the face of that land, and he is here today to tell the unbelieving world that what Trader Horn said is the truth.
"*Trader Horn is trading still*," the bishop told the ship news men by way of paradox, "but now, instead of kitchenware, he's trading in ideas. Every last item in his book is well within reason and completely credible to one who knows Africa."
The result of Methodist missionary labor in southern Africa is very gratifying, the bishop continued. In the last year, he ordained, more native men to the ministry than he could remember, he said, but the greatest work is being done to teach them, he added, the men have first to be prevailed on to do a goodly share of the work that the women might have the leisure needed to give heed to the Christian gospel. The most thrilling thing that over, happened to him occurred in northern Phocaea, he said, where he went on a pastoral visit to a native village in the heart of the jungle and was greeted by an enormous choir made up of whole Ortes from hundreds of miles around, all joining hands in Handel's "Malahi Chorus."
"And those Negroes can sing!" the bishop exclaimed.
The Levathan made the crossing in the brief time of five days, nine hours and forty minutes. On her last voyage out of New York, it was announced, she set up a new record by crossing the English Channel from Cherbourg to Southampton in four hours and nine minutes.
Death Rate Drops
In Tuberculosis
The average death rate from tuberculosis was 6 per cent lower in 1927 than in the previous year. It is disclosed from an examination of the health reports for thirty major cities of the United States having an aggregate population in excess of 25,000,000 people. The death from this disease in these cities were 1,002 fewer last year than in 1926, according to figures compiled for the National Tuberculosis Association and given out today by Godfrey J. Drelet, statistician of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association.
The average thus found for the thirty leading cities is taken as a fair indication of the condition of the country as a whole. It proves that the number of cases in a region increased in a period of four years from 100 in 1923 to 85.6 cach 100,000 of population in 1927.
Attention is drawn, however, to the fact that although the rate is being pushed down the actual number of deaths from tuberculosis—by reason of the steady growth of the population—is remaining constant at about 21,000 for each of the past four years.
"Of the thirty cities under consideration eight showed an increase in the rate of tuberculosis, the tendency was offset by the relative degree to which the rate was reduced inside the remaining twenty-two cities.
The death rate from tuberculosis for New York City was 88 in 1926 and in 1927 was 86, showing a decrease of over 5 per cent. The actual number of deaths in the same period fell from 5,568 to 5,157.
Adam and Eve Argument
in Kentucky Ends Fatally
LEXINGTON, Ky., March 16.—He result of an argument over Adam and Eve were Negroes or "white folks." Peter Golden, 60 years old, was shot and instantly killed by Joe Jones, 65 at Danville, forty miles south of here. Both were Negroes. Golden, who was formerly a resident of Danville, but who resided at Somerset, had come to attend the funeral of a relative and had engaged in an argument with Jones in regard to a reference made in the funeral sermon about the nationality of Adam and Eve. Jones is now in jail at Danville, with a charge of murder against him.

Police Chief and Three Other Officers Charged—Grand Jury Finds Alliance with Underworld —Reorganization Recommended
MIAMI, Fla., March 23. H. Leslie Quigs, Chief of Police of Miami, tonight was held, without ball, in the county stockade under charges of murder in the first degree after his indictment today in connection with the slaying of H. Kier, a Negro puncher, two and a half years ago. Three other members of the police force are in jail in connection with the Negro's death.
A fifth member of the force, R. L. Wood, a detective, was indicted for second degree murder in connection with the slaying of Victory W. Parnell, a carpenter, in November, 1926. Wood also was placed in the stockade.
The Grand Jury declared it had discovered an alliance between the police and the underworld and recommended reorganization of the department. Before adjourning until April 10 the jury also disclosed that it had heard testimony concerning "numerous crimes committed by members of the Police Department with the co-operation and sometimes direction, of officers in charge."
The three other police officers held in connection with the Kler death are Lieutenant M. A. Tibbettes and John Cauldell and Tom Noxworth, detectives. All are charged with first-degree murder. It was alleged, was killed by the officers when they took him away from Police Headquarters "to work on him" after his arrest on a charge of accosting a woman guest at a hotel where he was employed.
When Tibbettie and Caundell unsuccessfully sought freedom from the charges on habeas corpus proceedings recently, testimony was introduced to show that Chief Quigg had ordered him to be acquitted of blotter no "there will be no record of this," and that the Chief compelled with the officers to keep the circumstances of Kiever's death unrevealed. N. Vernon Hawthorne, State's Attorney, annuaging that Quigg was charged "with a capital crime and would not be admitted to bail, limbered and be held in prison" that "new witnesses have definitely established the connection of Quigg with the killing."
Decline in Lynchings To 16 in Year Reported By Council of Churches
More states were free from lynchings during 1922 than even before, according to the roll of honor prepared by the Federal Council of Churches, through its Commission on Race Relations and made public last week. There were sixteen lynchings last year in seven states, leaving forty-one states in which there were none. For the first time since records have been kept, Georgia and Florida appear on the roll of honor.
In the three previous years there were thirty-eight states without lynching. The number of lynchings in 1927 was fourteen less than in 1926, one less than in 1925, and the same as in 1924. Six of the seven states that had lynchings in 1927 have been on the honor roll at least once since 1922. The seventh state, which the report does not name, is the only one in the country with an unbroken yearly record of lynchings.
Connecticut has been added to the list of states that has never had a record of lynching, the report shows. Previously the four states credited with such a record were Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.
Maine and New Jersey have had no lynchings since 1885, according to the commission. "In the past twenty years, Delaware, Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin have been free of lynchings. New York has been on the honor roll only for ten years.

LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, Sunday Night, March 25. On the main thoroughfares of Harlem, New York, and wherever men congregate, could be heard tonight frank expressions of admiration, not unmixed with wonderment, for the devotion, amazing in its earnestness and wholeheartedness, of the people to the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the absent leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and the cause which he so brilliantly espouses. For the attention of Harlem's teeming thousands cut not but be attracted to Liberty Hall, where for the past two weeks, night after night, attractive events were in progress, under the direction of Madame M. L. T. Ebimber, International Organizer of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and a faithful band of assistants of the Garvey Club and the New York Local. Tonight's proceedings came as a fitting climax, for not only was a program of rare excellence presented, but the famous hall was filled to the doors, even though all who entered paid 25 cents admission.
Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President-General, was a notable absentee, this officer being on his way to Jamaica, B. W. T. to confer with the leader, and Hon. S. A. Haynes, High Commissioner of the States of Virginia, North and South Carolina, filled the role of principal speaker. Hon. J. H. Miller, Vice-President of the New York Local, presided over the meeting, while Mme. Ebimber assisted in the direction of the evening's events.
At the height of the enthusiasm which prevailed throughout the meeting, on the motion of Madame Ebimber, a telegram was sent to the Hon. Marcus Garvey by the members, thanking him for his splendid services to the race and reaffirming their loyalty and devotion to him.
A fine musical program was rendered, in which the Universal Choir, the Universal Band and individual artists took part. Master Samuths enthused with an inspiring oration, and Miss Ethel Collins sang "Keep Cool," the words of which were composed in prison by Hon. Marcus Garvey, in engaging style. A very creditable exercise by a crack contingent of the Universal African Legions rounded out the program.

THE NEGRO DETERMINATION
Mrs. L. McCarthy, First Lady Vice-President of the New York Local, was the first speaker, followed by Mr. N. E. Kelly, President of the Brooklyn Chapter. Both stressed the determination of the Negro peoples of the world to continue in the work for the redemption of Africa, under the banner of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, until the future welfare of the Negro race was assured.
MR. C. F. FANNING ADMISSION
Mr. C. F. Fannin, a member of the New York Local, was the next speaker. Speaking on the subject, "The Entry of Marcus Garvey into the United States of America," he made a request of should be followed by the entry of Marcus Garvey into the archives of white men. Marcus Garvey has done very, very much more than most of us are able to appreciate. Nobody knows the work of Marcus Garvey as well as the white man knows it. Nobody knows the program that Marcus Garvey has launched for the Negro better than the white man knows it. Marcus Garvey has, indeed, disturbed the entire world. Even yet the white man is busy trying to fashion some means by which he can hamper the progress of this great organization headed by the greatest man that over the years has been a leader in the British West Indies, while he is in the island of Jamaica; they are busy trying to attach his name to some murder that happened in Miami, Florida. But I am here to tell you whether they succeed in even impressing Marcus Garvey again, whatever success attends their socheme to hamper the purely physical and individual affair of Marcus Garvey at this time. It is just as easy to wipe out the national aspiration of four hundred million Negroes as it is for an ant to shoulder the whole world and walk away with it."
The speaker then related an incident which, he said, tended to show how well the white man knew the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Some time ago where he worked in downtown New York there
was a white woman who spared no paints to make herself agreeable to him. In other words, she' had set her heart on "vamping"; him. But came the day when, in the course of conversation, he informed her that his name was Abd-al-rabbi. He was a manan leader, was his leader and Marcus Garvey his uncle. And from that day, said Mr. Fannin, amist, laughter, the woman had not spoken to him.
1625 Mr. Fainn said he was not against the white man because he covered four-fifths of the world or because Negroes from attaining an equal degree of power. Rather, he was against the Negro because of his attitude toward himself—the attitude that what was virtuous in George Washington and Blankey and other great nation builders in crazy in a black man. Marcus Garvey was another crazy nor ahead of his time. The only thing he was ahead of was those Negroes who were so foolish, so steeped in false propaganda, that they failed to see the dire necessity of lining up under a black man, under black leaders, and working for their racial slavery. Some Negroes were still going around in this enlightened age and day and saying they had lost nothing in Africa. The white man was finding something in America, and finding in America, "except hot dogs?" "咱 he added, "Tell me about your collegiate suits and you are only telling me how much you are a slave to the white man."
Mr. Fannin ended his address with a stirring appeal to his hawkers to rededicate themselves on that occasion to the cause of African redemption, which, he said, should be the first love, claim the first consideration of Negroes everywhere, until it was commended. MME, EIBMER'S ADDREGS
MME, M. L. T. Ephimer, Assistant International Organizer, followed with a brief address. She said they were assembled that evening not to sympathize nor to sorrow, but to give thanks and resolve to halt the anniversary of the day when the Hon. Marcus Garvey who had wrought so

HON. 8. A. HAYNES'8 ADDRESS
HON. S. A. HAYNES ADDRESS
After lifting the collection, Ame. Ebimber presented the speaker of the evening, Hon. S. A. Haynes, High Commissioner of Virginia, North and South Carolina, who spoke as follows:
"Mr. Vice-President, Hon. Assistant International Organizer, officers and members of the Universal Negro Emigration Association, the members of the Gaynor Club, follow men and women of the Negro races. It is very fitting that we should celebrate the coming of so great a character and personality as Marcus Garvey to this country. Those who conceived the celebration deserve our appreciation and thanks and gratitude. Many great men from many great countries and races have come to this country. To mention a few of them—John Smith, whose character is a byword in 'American history'; William Penn, Lord Baltimore and Lafayette of France, but the coming of these men was of little significance so far as the Negro was concerned. They came here for the purpose of building up a racial hegemony in the interests of white men. We, tonight, take special pride in the fact that while the white man may not put it in his history, we are going to put it in our history, we are going to put it in the history of the coming of Marcus Garvey to these United States or America, was the tide that turned the fortunes of 15,000,000 Negroes. His coming means more to those of us who crifle and ridicule him, and we can perceive just now it is good that Marcus Garvey came, and as we celebrate his coming, tonight we find consolation in the fact that Marcus Garvey has attired the Negroes of the world as no other man has done, before.
Future of the U. N. I. A.
Tonight I shall address you on the future of our association in a conciliatory effort to get you to realize the importance of the present. A certain obligation of Norwegian thought, as also the white raptors of Norwegian manhood, would have us believe that the imprisonment of Marcus Garvey was the deluge which swamped the mighty organization he founded out of nothing, and that his deportation was the storm which wrecked it. The imperialists of Europe and America, fully cognizant of the influence their propaganda, flooded through powerful newspaper, has upon the people of the world, making a desperate effort through this medium to rid us of Garvey, the crook, the charlatan, the dreamer, and even robote that a way was found to tear him from the presence of the poor, hard-working colored citizens of Harlem, Chicago, Detroit, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Pittsburgh, whose savings they claim he displaced in the Black Star Lasso fusco. Behold, follow citizens of Africa, your white saviors, and follow the white saviors. There are good and efficient reasons for the accusations, as we shall see later.
Hirelings and Others
"Mr Lester Walton, the hired Negro servant of the distinguished 'New York World,' stated the case for his constituency in prophetico-language. In a condensed review of Mr. Garvey and his activities, following his deportation, Mr. Walton closed with these words, 'America was his Waterloo, Jamates his Elba.' But still we glean from an editorial in 'Opportunity Magazine,' the holy sanctum of the intelligentsia, that it would be worth the time and the labor to investigate the secret of Garvey's power which makes the nations fear his doctrine of African Nationalism. And the scholar Dr. Smith Lester Lankie told us in his return last year from a visit to the League of Nations that 'Intelligent participation in African affairs will be the solemn duty of colored America in the years to come.'
"We are consecrated to the program of African autonomy. We who, because of the proven sincerity and selfish service to the race, have imploit faith and confidence in the leadership of Darryn and the program of the U. M. I. A. are not concerned with the opinion of any Niger responding our request or future, however likely the position he falls on the influence be widens. It is a matter of common knowledge that with all their bounded intelligence our institutions are Danish Danes who are engaged in analyzing international problems and contemplating with us the implications of the Danish values and values we would support.
**Questions When?**
These Negatives do not weigh anything in the equation of world peace, but they do weigh absoction white concepts and standards, yet their benevolent tutors and guardians can race them no higher in the classification of humanity than that of warfare. "Whom does the program of the U. N. L. A offend? Who will drink the bitter uitter of removes from its successful prosecution? African for the Africans! Think of the rejection by white America to this slogan, "The United States for Great Britain," imagina, if you can, the heartbeats, the emotional tension which would allow such a challenge from the North Sea, and you get a proper conception of the motives underlying these seasonal assaults on Garvey and the U. N. L. A.
"Foolish Virgins"
Those who talk of the demise of our program because Garvey was imprisoned and deported are like the five lamps and went forth to meet the bighorns but took no oil with them. What of the future of the U. N. I. A.? From the trend of political thought and social discord which are sweeping the world as they relate to the rights of unprotected minorities, I am convinced that the U.-N.-I.A. stand-up on the threshold of greater and more glorious triumphs. I am convinced that the fools who laugh, the critics who rant, are in for some startling revelations. But ten years have passed since Garvey began the gloomious march toward racial hierarchy in Africa. Ten years have passed to be looking for something with which they can find fault. The world of Negroism is filled with a pandemium of criticism. They fail to see the good things we have accomplished, polishing out only what they consider to be bad. People who have never invested a dime in the movement cry out for an accounting.
Patience impatient
"They have lost their historic per-pective. Negroes who for hundreds of years have endured persecution patiently become impatient that African autonomy does not spring into full growth almost overnight. They expect us to produce a full-fledged nation on a silver platter. They overlook the fact that these things require time, years and years of sacrifice and endearment. With the one million dollars it is said we collected so much information for the African State. What more can be reasonably expected with such little money and in such a short time? We have won recognition at the League of Nations and in the capitals of the nations as representing the organized will of the Negro people of the world. We have in Africa and other Negroid communities educated a new generation in the profound reverence their forefathers preserved for Africa and things African, an indomitable African autonomy. We have made it clear to the world that the people of African blood have the ability to govern themselves. Those who have caught the spirit of the new philosophy have and are materializing in the leading universities of the world. We have inspired Negroism to a new some of racial security and are responsible for the new leadership now being developed. These are the things that should be remembered when people start to criticize, and every Negro in the organization ought to be courteous and manly enough to admit that he has received benefit tenfold for every dollar invested in the U. N. I. A. God and Africa.
"What of the future?" Garvoylim—the desire of Negroes for a country, a government of their own in their fatherland, African—is not dying. It never has been on the decline. It is reaching out into new souls. It is walking up and down in the hearts of black men and women and children everywhere. Belloise is or not, Garvoylim is now as permanent an institution in the life of the Negro as in the Christian church, for as long as the Negro believes in the justice of God, as long as black men are imbued with the desire to be free from social ostracism, from economic and political sardism, so long will their loyalty to God and sacrifice be maintained for black men for an independent national status was not killed, by the imprisonment and deportation of Garvoy, these attempts to discourage us only intensified our determination to reach the goal. Garvoylim today, thanks to the persecution it has passed through, is a contagious disease making victims of black men wherever they feel the whip of oppression.
"Sentinel of Preservation"
"Garveyism cannot be killed. What human power ever succeeded in intimidating, crushing or killing the spirit of freedom? Who among men can still the burning desire of 460 million black men to be free? The U. N. L. A. is not a secular organization; it is a gigantic contrarency of African brotherhood pitting their combined energy and intelligence against the shared and the white supremacy of internationalism. The same favor with which Christians have concentrated their belief in spiritual redemption is the motive power which propels the U. N. L. A. and makes it the sentinel of African preservation.

We are now making an effort to lift the association to a higher intellectual standard, and this can only be done when there are of intelligent and intelligent man to interpret the objects of the movement."
Brains and intelligence
"An intelligent presentation of our cause, intelligent presentation of the program by an intelligent and aggressive leadership. According to Mr. Garvey, therefore, the future is summed up in two words: brains and intelligence. Our African program demands leaders proficient in international law, political science, foreign languages, history, and a thorough knowledge of commerce and industry in all their ramifications. These are essentials of African Nationalism.
"I earnestly appeal to you tonight to seriously dedicate yourself to the year's ahead of you. Each year finds the problems confronting us growing in profundity. To meet these problems successfully we must develop a brigade of proficient administrators tiny from the Parent Body as well as that of our branches 'scattered throughout the world.
"We want you to qualify for leadership, in your association. The future holds much for us, but we cannot successfully prosecute our program unless we possess, that leadership Capable of executing it. By qualifying is not meant learning how to be a silverman, but it does require for a diplomatic birth in the service of the association. It means aspiring to become a great African statesman who some day will become President of the League of Nations, guiding the destiny of his own nation and of her allies.

"Young men and women of the U. N.
I. A., the future dopends upon you.
Why not look for a career, an honorable career, right here? You can start right now by taking every advantage of the educational institutions of the world. Enroll in the evening or night classes of your city schools. Attend lectures dealing with human and political problems. Go up to the State Control, go up to Congress one day, and go to the State Department of government in motion. Study, travel, read, develop cultural contacts with foreign students and organizations. in this way the man and woman of other races before you left glory and inspiration for your omulation. Some became great, some were distinguished, others are immortalized, because they found happiness. in serving their country, their race and their fellowmen. Bear in mind that the greatness of our association goes no farther than the intelligence, the character, the personality of our leaders.
A Billion Dollar Institution
"As we contemplate the future, we must meet the challenges the dollar institution and it takes brains to run it" creditably. In the next ten years we will need the endowment of ten million dollars to carry on our work and extend our unfulfillment. We must have adequate resources to meet changing conditions and perpetuate our serviceablebene. The next ten years must find us active at the League of Nations and before those tribunals designed to dispense justice to the oppressed of the world, we must be fully equipped, and our educational, industrial and commercial programs executed with precision. We go forward to meet the future, confident and unafraid. Let us give thanks to Almighty God for the blessings we
have so far received. Let us live and work and serve always for God, Garvey, and the religion of equality and justice for all. When your strength begins to fall you, when you feel that you have spent your last energy and are about to lose hope in the efficacy of Africa for the Africans, brace yourself up and with eyes fixed toward the suffering prayer from the pen of Theodosis Garrison: I do not pray for peace. Nor ask that on my path. The sounds of war shall shrill no more. The way be clear or wrath. But this I bag The Lord, Lord. Steel Thou my heart with might. And in the air that men call life Grant me the strength to fight.
I do not pray for arms, nor should to cover me. Wondering with empty hand, so it be valiantly. Spare me the coward's fear—Questioning wrong or right; Lord, among these, mine enemies, Grant me the strength to fight.
I do not pray that Thou
Keep me from any wound.
Though I fail low from thust and blow
fighting to the ground;
But give me wit to hide
My hurt from all men's sight.
And for my need the while I bleed,
Lord, grant me strength to fight.
I do not pray that Thou
Shouldst grant me victory.
Enough to know that from my foe
I have no will to flee.
Beaten and bruised and banned,
Flung like a broken sword,
Grant me this thing for conquering
Let me die fighting, Lord!
England's "Bravest Deed"
Was by Trench Digger
LONDON, March 19.—The story of "the bravest deed of the year" was told at the annual meeting of the Royal Humane Society when a gold medal was awarded to Ernest T. Johnson of Manchester. David Ingles were working in a branch at Manchester. It was sixteen feet deep and the bushel was quicksand. Without warning the trench collapsed, burying Ingles and partly burying Johnson.
Instead of trying to save himself Johnson remained where he was and kept the crumbling earth from Ingles' head so he could breathe, at the same time he was pressing on his own body to prevent further collapse. After eight hours off work he returned.
GERMAN RECIPIENTS SAID TO
PUZZLELE BY AFGHAN GIFTS
BERLIN, March 13.—How many Germans are now holding the titles of Duke or Prince, of Afghanistan is a question which is puzzling the public much more than what political character the next Relohtag will have.
Though it is generally admitted that President von Hindenburg and Chancellor Marx zeroth accepted as a "souvenir" the rank of Duke, then them the rank of Duke in the Oriental kingdom, a number of other persons deny that they were invested with this or any other titles or orders.
The German Constitution specifically states "No Gérman is allowed to accept a title or order from a foreign Government." However, this law finds little favor with the general public, and especially in official circles. The皇帝 also acts as many as orders of various titles, some bearing the title of Duke and others of Prince.
Whether Amanuallah was informed that Germans were unable to accept titles and orders is doubtful, as the Afghan Minister here is busy distributing them. A number of Republican lights, such as Rolchestag President Loebe and Berlin's Mayor, Herr Boes, declined the offer with the explanation that acceptance was impossible. It is hinted, however, that a number accepted blue and red capes, signifying Oriental aristocracy, and are keeping them hidden until a change in the Constitution will allow them to wear the garments publicly instead of admiring them secretly.
LONDON, March 21 (CANADA Press Cable) — In connection with the trouble in Western Samoa, Major Patrick Bernard Malone, Conservative M. P. for the South Tottenham division of Middlesboro, asked in the House of Commons today for assurance that, when the report on the matter was submitted to the Mandates Commission as Governor, the British representative would not oppose the hearing of the arguments of the Mau (League of Samoa) for self-government, as well as New Zealand's side of the case.
Sir Austin Chamberlain, Foreign Secretary, replied that the constitution governing the Mandates Commission expressly provided that the members should be selected on personal grounds and not hold any office which might put them in the position of direct dependence upon their governments.
vitally to create anything whatsoever. Time is money, however we may regard it, and money is blood, and we must have so much of it to secure the necessary things of life. That is why taxation by the State and the high cost of living are felt so sensibly by all those who have no fixed income.
Each creature considers the things it creates and deems necessary as of the first importance and seeks to preserve the things so created because they are so to speak blood of its life.
An association such as the Universal Negro Improvement Association is the creation of a group, or a race, with a definite purpose understood as the objects of its creation. The primary purposes of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have often been stated, but they cannot be stated too often. They are few and very simple, but as vital as life itself. They are: 1. The unification of the Negro people everywhere; for the purpose of protecting and promoting their own interests without prejudice to the interests of others. 2. The assertion and conservation of the social, civil and economic values of the Negro people for their own advantage and benefit. 3. The building of a Negro State in Africa, the Motherland, where the Negro wherever he may be can find a sufficient government to protect him and allow him the same opportunities to make a living and to enjoy the fruits of his labors as the citizens of all countries are supposed to be able to do, although many governments are so ordered as not to promote the best interests of their people, but of a class only of their people. Self-governing democratiske like the United States are supposed to give their people, and not their classes, the fullest opportunities and advantage of government, but they do not always do it. We hope to build such a state in Africa.
It becomes a matter of self-preservation, therefore, for each member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to regard the association as his creation, as life of his-life, which he should give of his time and means to support, so that it may properly and effectively function. Don't owe the association any money. Pay it what you owe. It requires the money to properly function as you want it to, as your creature, your creation.
THE NEGRO'S POLITICAL RIDDLE
THE Negro's political problem everywhere is much the same. It resolves itself into a provoking riddle, not so much for others as for the Negro himself. In every nation where the Negro is supposed to be a full citizen, as in the United States, or a part citizen, as in British and other European dependencies, the Negro's first purpose is the same as that of others—to get as much out of politics as he puts in it. The things he mostly votes for, or should, are equal justice in the administration of the laws; equal representation in the making and administering of the laws; equality in taxation, and in the distribution of taxation for the public benefit, in government controlled agencies and public works of all sorts; equal protection of the laws, with others, in the granting of public franchises, so that the common interests instead of the interests of a few may be safeguarded.
It will thus be seen that the matter of citizenship covers everything that a person deems vital to his well-being, and that is what citizenship in the broad sense comprehends. That is why governments are instituted and maintained. It comprehends the sort of government President-General Marcus Garvey, and the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, desire to build and are determined to build in Africa itself.
In the United States the theory is that the Negro has equality of citizenship with all of the other race groups of the citizenship. As a matter of constitutional guaranty that is so; but each State is left free to legislate at will in its domestic affairs, and injustice in the making and enforcing of the laws is often an outrage upon the Negro citizen, in which he is openly discriminated against in what amounts to class legislation in voting, in the distribution of the common taxation for school and other purposes, in travel and accommodation, and in laws regulating labor, wages and housing. This condition should not prevail, but if it very generally does. The riddle of how to get the equal enjoyment of the benefits of citizenship "guaranteed" to him equally with others, becomes a very knotty problem—a problem which, we believe, will be thoroughly solved only by strict adherence to the programme and policies of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.

MR. KNOX GOES TO THE WEST INDIES
IT is of general interest to the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to learn that Hon. E. B. Knox, the personal representative of President-General Garvey in the conduct of the association and its affairs in the United States, left New York city Wednesday of last week, on the way to Kingston, Jamaica, British West Indies, for the purpose of going over the affairs of the association in the United States with President-General Garvey. The conference of the two outstanding figures in the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will be of the greatest benefit to the association. This is a critical time in the life of the association, with an international convention scheduled for next summer, and there is need of a good understanding among those in authority and a united and determined effort on the part of all of the members to secure the best results. We all hope that the visit of Mr. Knox to President-General Garvey may be of great benefit to the association.
"UNITED WE STAND; DIVIDED WE FALL"
IT is a truth that has universal application and appeal that if a group or race stand unitedly, together in a given cause they will hardly fail, as they probably would if they were divided in their strength and counsels. One of the most difficult things it has been to teach the Negro people, especially in the United States, is the truth contained in the maxim; "United we stand; divided we fall." This is largely true because, in the condition of American and West Indian slavery, it was a matter of self-interest with the owners to teach the Negroes to distrust and spy upon each other. In the United States during the long period of slavery the system of spying and informing among Negroes for the benefit of the masters was brought to a high state of efficiency. Sixty years after the Negro race in the United States still is afflicted in a large way with variations of the system. There are plenty of spies and informers among Negroes who think that the sun rises and sets in white people, and who app the manners and fashions of white people, and keep them informed of what the Negro is thinking about and doing to promote his own interests.
But time and hard experience are gradually teaching the "good Negro" that the spy and informer is a dangerous character, who as often injures himself and his interests as he does those of his brethren. Time and education should destroy the system entirely. When it does we shall have a better condition for the Negro people.
In his latest front page article-President-General Marçus Garvey, last week in The Negro-World, discussed at length the question of unifying of Negro numbers and strength and working together for the accomplishment of the grand purposes of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, with a broad side swipe at those Negroes who may be considered as spies and informers, and are a hindrance and backtrack to the Negro people. Among other things, President-General Garvey said:
A welding together of a people into one compact body means sacrifice, and such sacrifice is easily willingly made when once the people understand. When we do results how vital in our coming together, we cannot, we weaken, we weaken, we weaken into our pockets. We have spent fortunes upon less worthy objects. Can we do less for our national salvation? We think not—Gold Coast Leader.
"From all parts of the world news is coming that the people are getting together more than ever so as to be united in hearts and sentiment for the cause of Africa redeemed and the black race universally freed.
There are two kinds of people who are obstacles to race adjustment. One is the cochiseur southerner who knows all about Negroes, and the other is the indifferent northerner who knows nothing about them. The one deludes himself with sophistries and the other does not care, so long as he in not drawn into the matter—Kansas City Call.
"As president-general of your organization I am advising that each and every black man hold fast to the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, for it is only by working together can we successfully bring about the changes that are in sight.
"The entire black world must stand together as one man—not a man must fall out of line, every son of Africa at home or abroad must now realize that it is now or never in the urge to accomplish greatness."
Public opinion is more than a more passing vagary—it is more than a tinkling orbital or sounding brass—it is more than a tin sword. In the hand of weaklings, obsessed with ogotic pride or selfish, individualistic ends. Public opinion is an articulate, living, powerful thing. It is one of
It is this world-wide awakening of the Negro people of the world, and their agitation for a square deal in the affairs of mankind, with as much self-determination as other race groups claim for themselves and for their neighbors, that has attracted the attention of European and American statesmen, as well as confused many Negroes who do not believe that the Negro race will accomplish anything worth while except by and with the consent of white men. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has planted the good seed in all parts of the world and it is beginning to bring forth strong Negro men and women who are not afraid to unite as one for the purpose of saving themselves and their values and to build a Negro State in Africa; while helping at the same time, the native African people to a higher conception of their own values as human beings.
THE VOTE OF OUR WOMEN
By proclamation of the Secretary of State, United States, August 20, 1922, the 19th amendment to the federal constitution was declared a part of the fundamental law of the United States. This amendment was hailed as one of the great victories of modern civilization in that it recognized and granted to the women of this nation the right to. Perhaps the group to whom the privilege of voting under the 19th amendment presented the greatest advantage is the colored women of the United States. It is a well known fact that colored women as a group have a smaller percentage of illiteracy than colored men. This is accounted for to some extent by the fact that our nurses from early childhood, faced the problem of whipping bread, while the females were accorded such opportunity as might be presented for getting a mastering education. Despite the handicap of political education, the vote, up to the adoption of the 19th amendment, accounted for 85% of the vote brought a certain definite recognition. But our women are not
Yes; "United we stand; divided we fall." We need to stand. We do not need to fall.
SELF-PRESERVATION THE FIRST LAW OF NATURE
It is a common inheritance of all animate creatures to seek first the preservation of their lives and the lives of those nearest and nearest to them and then the objects and things of value they may possess. That which we create of value and which we do need necessary to our well-being and happiness, becomes of as much concern as the things we create of our flesh and blood, as in a way they are also creatures of our blood, as it requires the expenditure of time and money to create and preserve them to our uses. It requires as much food to create so much blood as gives us the life and

While colored women have stayed at home on primary and election days, white women of this country have made use of the ballot. The result is that the balance of power heretofore in the hands of the colored man as a voter has been out-weighed somewhat by the vote of women. Unless the colored woman gets busy at, takes an interest in the idea of the ballot, there will be a lessening of the influence of the Negro vote and a consequent decrease in political recognition.

CAMDEN, N. J., Ms. Marsh, N.—Recent sociological and political movements in America have demonstrated that the Jaws, as well as other definitely defined races and religious creeds, have been the butt of an increasingly insecure Edwards, of New Jersey, in an address tonight before the Camden BNAL B'Rith at the Hotel Walt Whitman. Senator Edwards, depredating its spread, said that he had at one time felt that this growing prejudice was the proaganda of 100 per cent American-Bim is spreading.
Without micontoping names, Senator Edwards made reference to recent attacks by Senator Helfin in the Senate. "Within the last few months we have had a demonstration of a cruel and inhuman race prejudices and intolerance on the floor of the United States Senate," he said. "Unfounded charged were hurled in the face of a religious sect who have done more to found and perpetuate American democracy and ideals than any other greed in the history of world civilization. I make this statement without the slightest fear of successful contradiction. Let the 100 percents say what they will, there is no place in our institutions or in our lives for intolerance toward the Jew or any other face."
HEALTH TOPICS
By DR. M. ALICE ASSERSON of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association
Let Your Doctor Decide
The death rate from tuberculosis has been reduced, one-third in the last twenty-five years. It has, however, been decreasing at a diminishing rate in the past few years and the disease still takes a large toll in human lives. The most serious part of the situation is that it takes the greatest number of its victims among young men and women between 20 and 45—during the most productive and most useful years of tuberculosis. This is an appalling condition, especially since tuberculosis is curable and preventable. Everyone can help stamp out the disease, by keeping his own health up to par and by going to the doctor, to learn how to keep well. All of us should have a complete medical examination by the family doctor, or a competent physician, once a year. If there are physical defects which need correction or beginning signs of chronic disease he will be able to correct them. If they have done lasting harm. Tuberculosis, for example, is much more easily caused in its beginning stages.
Even if you are in good health, it will give you added confidence to have the doctor tell you this. Young people especially should check up on their health in this fashion once a year. The rush and hurry and strain of busy life in New York City in apt to impair the health, especially if we neglect ourselves and do no watch our daily health habits.
The Care of the Hair
The exact relation of personal cleanliness and good health cannot be determined. However, it is true that cleanliness helps health. And, furthermore, it helps our self-respect and raises our morale. The care of the hair is important in personal hygiene. Proper attention should be given to both the hair and the scalp in order to keep them in a good, healthy condition. Moreover, clean, well-fitted hair is attractive and adds to the personal charm and attractiveness of anyone.
The hair should be shampooed once every two or three weeks, depending upon the individual. A person who has a very oily scalp may require a weekly shampoo. Those with very dry scalp should not have their hair washed so often—one in three weeks may be sufficient. The average person should have a shampoo about once every two weeks.
Any good pure soap is a safe kind to use for the shampoo. For some structure of green soap is found satisfactory, but for others it may not hurt the hair, but they do not help it any. Plenty of good soap and water, and care in rinsing the hair are on the greatest value in bringing out its natural gloss. It should be remembered that the hair should be washed whoever it is dirty and needs washing. Do not use patent rinses and dyes, because they may contain drugs which are harmful.
Frequent brushing of the hair and massaging of the scalp help keep both hair and scalp in a healthy condition.
Free Evening Classes For Industrious Girls
"Such a beautiful lamp shade!" said a visitor at Evening School 138, at Edgecombe avenue and 135th street. But a lamp shade—even a gorgeous one such as this one of pale gorgette with a dainty edge of ribbon flowers—is only one of many beautiful things at Evening School 138. Of the other class rooms. In one we find flowers of every material and hue—from a cluster of brilliant glass cherries with green glass leaves to lovely flower of pale ribbon. In another room are dresses—thin silks and volles in preparation for summer. Here a girl is making a suit for spring. Another woman is smocking a child's dress of grey cotton silk. And hats-felt, straws and silks—for Easter is not far away.
We haven't visited all the classrooms, for Evening School 138 has been filled with colourful, interior-designed haskets, making and very well work.
All classes are free. They meet from 7:45 to 9:45 on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.

We publish in another column an article on hypothetics in Argentina which shows that this form of mob rule still prevails in the form of the Stars and Bribery. According to statistics, 71 persons were jailed in the United States during 1854; this is regarded in some quarters as an improvement on the previous year's record of 34, though we cannot see what comfort people will derive from comparing the figures since in our view nothing short of the total suppression of this barbaric practice can be justified as an "improvement." To enable our readers to understand the position clearly, we may mention that in America a mob has it in its power to seize any black woman in the act of murder or other prejudice and to drag him out; on the more suspicion of murder, or attempted murder, or of improper conduct, with a white woman; and to do him to a stake and post and burn him alive and escape punishment for taking the law into its own hands. This form of mob rule exists only in the United States, for we are not aware, that it prevails in any other part of the world, not even in Africa which white people describe as the "Dark Continent"; and it leads us to question seriously whether the United States is an enlightened, as it is said to be since it cannot, maintain law and order within its own borders. Our closer relations with the white races and our growing knowledge of the crime, and this is the more reason why we should adhere to our own standard and not abandon it at the boast of others.
Those among us who have been studying the European outlook in life must have noticed that matters to which we attach great, importance are often regarded by them as of minor significance. On the other hand, what
Dozens to Turn Hindu, Emulating Miss Miller
LONDON, March 24.—Following the recent admission of the former Miss Nancy Anne Miller, of Seattle, Wash., into the Hindu religion, there has been a wave of conversions to Hinduism in India, according to Bombay dispatches to the Herald Tribune Bureau, which state that within the next few months the Hindu religion will resume residing in India will embrace the Hindu religion. Miss Miller, after her conversion, became the wife of Sir Tukifoja Holkar, former Maharasahj of Indore.
More than a dozen Inquiries, it is said, have been made by cable from England to Dr. Kurakoti who, as the Shankarachnya of the Hindu religion, whether, or not he is willing to perform similar rites for other persons. This new development is arousing intense interest throughout India, as for 1,500 years there have been virtually no converts to this religion. Now, it is said, the way is clear, either through a decision of any particular caste to admit outsiders through the formal group which by an equally large group which wishes to embrace Hinduism.
Hindu in London probably will hold a meeting here to consider whether or not it is admissible to request Dr. Kurakolik to come to England or send a letter of invitation for performance in country the ceremonies of infiltration into the Hyipp faith.
UNITED
We are advancing to a new area in which we will see our group building not by competitive drift, but by cooperative intention. We are beginning to see as a body; our vision is ranging beyond things individual. We are beginning to trust each other more, and our motives are less selfish. No more proof in needed for this statement than was demonstrated last Sunday when the U. N. I. A. opened their hall, a splendid edition owned and controlled by them. It took money, time and ability to accomplish this. All could contribute money, but somebody had to furnish the bride; somebody had to take the lead; somebody had to take the lead. That cooperative bunch put their whole confidence in their leader; hence they are doing worthwhile things.
Some years ago some people looked on Marcus Garvey with doubts and misgivings, but today we find that his teachings are bearing fruit.
"In union there is strength—a very true saying that we are beginning to heed. On one occasion a father bound together a bundle of sticks and called on each of his sons to break the bundle. Of course, they failed. He untied the bundle and broke each stick separately, saying at the time: "As long as you are welded together as that they are joined, there is always apart you are as weak as the separate sticks." We are being formed into a solid group to accomplish the desires of our hearts. Our salvation lies in our unified efforts, and it is to that end we are looking—Oakland (Cal.) Western American.
Chinese Wife Has Equal
Rights With Her Husband
"The provisional code of the Chinese republic provides that the wife enjoys the same rights as the husband," says "Pacific Data," quoting Professor Lee Shao-chang, University of Hawaii. "Either wife or husband may institute divorce proceedings and obtain a divorce on one or more of the following grounds: bigamy, adultery, one intending to kill the other, one being inhilar or ill-treated by the other, one mistreating or insulting the relations of the other, and a�ation among the others, including, observed by and settlement about the three years, inourally dissatisfied. With her right in custody of children, part of the money after things
is defeated by Africans as an may be a matter of deep concern to the European. In the same way what the African regards as infrequently in the past is the same light. Nothing delights white people all when they are tasting native foods having in the past included in human sacrificed in cannibalism, though as to the latter we are quite sure that no white man had actually seen native feeding on human flesh. Yet while condemning human sacrifices in Africa as practiced in the past with the alleged cannibals as barbarous, white civilization looks on with complicity at the roasting of human beings alive in the United States, a reputedly Christian country. There, of course, be no difference in the degree of enmity between sacrificing a human being and burning him alive, except that the former practice was attributed to Africans and the other to the preteens by the people of the preteens for the roasting of Ashtani by the British was that the natives indulged in human sacrifices, and we can be sure that if lynching were practiced in any part of the continent today it would be made the ground for organizing a punitive expedition against the tribes concerned. Slavery in Abyssinia is an abomination to the white people, and quite deservedly so; but Negroes in America may be free, only they can be lynched. If the moral concepts of the white nations will raise their voices in a prolonged protest against lynching in American until the white element there is impelled to put its house in order. But, as we have said, the white man does not look at things African as Africanist and not the move in the black man's eye which falling to discern the beam in his own. And so this barbaric practice of roasting human beings alive will proceed from year to year until nature settles the matter in its own way by a catastrophe as grave as the Civil War which ended in the emancipation of the Negroes.
Soviet Disarmament Plan Killed at Geneva Parley
GENEVA; March 23.—The Soviet project for complete disarmament was given its death blow by the Preparatory Disarmment Commission of the League of Nations this morning. Notice of the project's demise was postponed, however, until it was found to be successful. Downstream of disarmament would go to a second reading this session.
A resolution closing the debate on disarmament noted that practically all the members find the Soviet text, while in harmony with the ideals of mankind, is under existing world conditions, incapable of being carried out. It suggested that the Soviet method might be used to disarm all of the armaments, but made no provision for its further study by the commission.
The resolution was presented after Anotole Lunacharsky, Soviet Commissar for Public Instruction, had appeared before the committee in place of Maxim Littvinoff, head of the Russian delegation. M. Lunacharsky, replying to attacks on the Soviet plan, said the people of the world without question demand what the Soviet is proposing—general and immediate disarmament. Discussion regarding it might be closed at Geneva, he continued, but it would remain open before the world. The resolution will be discussed this evening.
THE VALUE OF A SMILE
THE VALUE OF A SMILE
The thing that roos the farthest
Toward-making life worth while,
That costs the least and does the most
Is just a pleasant smile.
That bubbles from a sunny heart
That loves its follow-men.
Who drive away the clouds of gloom
And cone the sun again.
It's full of worth and goodness, too.
With manly kindness blent.
It's worth a million dollars.
It pays a higher interest,
For it is merely lent—
It's worth a million dollars
And it doesn't cost a cent.
A smile comes very easy;
You can wrinkle up with cheer
A hundred, hundred times-before
You drop a soggy tear.
It wipples out, moreover,
That will chatter that will tug;
And always leaves an echo,
That is very like a hug,
So smile easily and understand
What by a smile is meant;
It's worth a million dollars
And it doesn't cost a cent.
Manners of Young Folks In Paris Changing
PARIS, March 10 (A. P.) - Modern youth is fabbargesting French papaes and mammas with a new set of party manners.
Girls of high school age go alone to dance now, and they meet there their "danceo," often unknown to the hostess but invited at the suggestion of the girls. In definite contrast with their pursuers, who look adored at forgrants, the girls show dedicated prerences for all nationalities of the girls, except their own.
Instead of the three honored methods of this hostess providing the hostess lunch, each girl brings sandwiches, drinks and no food, and the key to their interest is a sense of whimsy.
An analysis of the work of the Slavic Convention at Geneva last Fall is made in the recent issue of International Conciliation, published by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, in an article by A. L. Wurphus, secretary of the International Missionary Council, and Joseph P. Chamberlain of Columbia University, with the collaboration of Quincy Wright of the University of Chicago. Dr. Nicholas Murray, Butler, president of the Carnegie Endowment, in a preface to the article says:
"The international effort to abolish the slave trade, first by sea, then by land, in a striking case of the interdependence of nations in combatting a social evil. This international evil must be to the action of individual States; to join the powers on the high seas and reciprocal agreements had to be negotiated to bring the more backward into line, and to enforce the polityof the seas against the traffickers in human flesh. As the eighteenth century progressed the States became more conscious of their interdependence, more willing to recognize their obligations to international society, and more accustomed to recognizing the power of the seas. In 1800 all the great powers and the small powers affected united in a common agreement, to prevent the trade by land and by sea.
"The Brussels Convention does not go far enough to satisfy the present international conscience. This developing sense of justice is voiced in the Slavery Convention of 1926, which forbids the slave trade and the institution of slavery and forbids the new civil, forced labor for private purposes. The sense of justice of the American people expressed itself two generations ago in the Thirteenth Amendment, abolishing slavery and involuntary servitude. The convention of 1926 internationalizes a principle already accepted by this country. The United States is asked to join the other nations of the world in this effort to destroy utterly an ancient civil and to prevent any present-day substitute. It cannot refuse to do its share in this final effort."
"Outlining the situation, the bulletin states:
"Four centuries ago Europe began a career of conquest, development and trade in the new world of America. For the crime of bringing across the Attacke millions of black slaves to the Americas, that cost to pay. Great as that cost has already become, clearly recognized by the civilized powers as a crime against humanity to be prevented by 'concerted' action, slavery still persists in some places and more effective measures are required for its complete abolition. So-called, and the slave trade, the happiness and freedom of the people and the ideals of good government are now threatened in a new way. Today another continent, Africa, in being opened and the labor of its native peoples is being unjustly exploited in many places. The type of the slave is the white slave, and white owners is not the slave of the plantation in America and the West Indies; he is a person whose status is given a different name."
Days Will Gain Second
In Thousand Years
LONDON (A. P.)—Old Grandmother Earth is getting just a little 'inyewyey bit more sunshine in her life as Old Father Timo clicks off the revolving centuries. It isn't a great deal in the sunshine and daylight measurements as rocked by puny man, but in her time it may amount to quite a lot.
Sir Frank Dyeon, astronomer royal at Greenwich Observatory, has calculated that the days are lengthening at the rate of something like one second in every thousand centuries.
In a lecture on "The Observation of the Solar Eclipse" Sir Frank explained how the eclipse in Nineveh in 763 B.C. enabled astronomers to discover that the speed of the rotation of the earth was gradually being reduced.
Halley's calculations of the cellos in Nineveh showed that that city should have been some hundreds of miles outside the zone of observation. To make his calculation fit the facts he suggested that the month was getting longer and subsequent work had allowed that the movement of the tides was lengthening the day by a thousand part of a second each century.
Brain Poisoning From Bad Teeth
LONDON. Dr. William Hunter, well known English medical authority, is quoted by the Westminster Gazette's Edinburgh correspondent as saying at a meeting of the British Medical Association that a large proportion of the immunity among azjum inmates is due to poisoning of the brain chiefly through bad teeth. He urges the authorities of mental health to provide fully equipped dental departments and nose, throat and oral care.
Dr. Buncei praised the "plessie
work in the field" of Dr. H. A. Cotton,
specialist director of the New Jersey
White Hospital for the Iraqi.
LONDON, March 28 — The cost of the British army in the coming year is up $2,575,000 below last years; in the estimates of $295,500,150 issued today. Whatever increases are contained in the estimates are obliquity for more medium and light tanks and armored cars to amass cavalry units.
The figures indicate constantly increasing mechanisation of the small British army as the result of the lessons learned in last year's manoeuvres. Tractors and tanks are doing the work once done in the artillery by horse teams. One field artillery brigade—the third so far—is to be put on a mechanical basis. The medium artillery are all to be supplied with tractors and artillery. The number of men exclusive of India troops, is now 15,500 with 98,000 in the reserve. Falling off in recruiting has pulled the total military strength, including India, to 2,500 below requirements.
The present estimate excludes provision for the troops in China which will form a supplementary estimate soon.
Missionary Conference In Jerusalem
ATLANTA, Ga., March 20—Dr.W.W. Alexander, director of the Mission on Interracial Cooperation, sailed from New York recently to attend the World Missionary Conference, to-be held in Jerusalem, March 18 to April 9. He goes at the invitation of the International Missionary Council and will be one of two hundred delegates from the world missionaries, educators, governments and 'others—who will study together the various phases of modern missions. Especial attention will be given to the consideration of race relations, in connection with which Dr. John Hope, president of Murchouse College, Atlanta, will tell of the work of the Interracial Commission in the South, of which he is a member. As director of this commission, Dr. Alexander was to follow in his footsteps. For conference with copies of addresses and conferences on race relations in the principal mission lands around the world, but found it impossible to be away so long. He will return to America the latter part of April.
Farm Census Net Loss Cut in '27, U. S. Finds
WASHINGTON, March 20.—There was a net loss of 103,900 in the American farm population for 1927, less than one-half of the average drop in the last five years. Secretary Jardine has calculated, from estimates made by the Bureau of Economics of the Department of Agriculture, These figures, compared with the loss of 455,000 in 1926, and 441,000 in 1925, indicated, the Secretary said, that the farming industry had struck a better balance with other businesses.
The figures show that 1,978,000 persons left farms last year, compared with 2,155,000 in 1926, and 1,000,000 in 1925. Offsetting this movement, 1,374,000 moved from cities to farms last year, compared with 1,135,000 in 1926 and 1,066,000 in 1925.
The bureau estimated the total farm population at 27,669,000, compared with 31,000,000 in 1920, or an average decrease of over 400,000.
Betgothal Ball Marks "New Era" in Angora
ANGORA, Turkey—Another great revolution impends in Turkey. It has to do with a change in the calendar. First, Turkey turned from Moslem to Georgian dates, and the world took breath in shock; and now another even greater change is coming. The Turkish official town for halls, the Turkish official offices and the embassy circles comprise a small, closeknit society; its only amusement is to foregather in balls. Well, at the last Angora ball a collaborated foreign young lady announced at last—her engagement.
"Alas," an old Turk said. "Now you shall change the calendar again. We will have two ophaces—before and after Josephine." Josephine is the nudge of the bellio in question. Angora in social life is remarkable like an American town.
Hall of Learning But Not Spelling
This particular school, house is on Amsterdam Avenue, New York City, and to it thorow go every day eight o'clock ninno hundred children, that they may learn how to read, how to write, how to add and subtract, and how to SPELL.
A sign for the least week has been adoring one corner of this Hall of Learning, telling the good people of the advantages to be gained by attending a series of free stereoptician lectures.
A block away a larger sign advertises an Action, Sale; a few doors up the street Shank is advertised at cut prices; around the corner there is a tempting display of Hot Crossed Buns, with Muffins, in the same window, and should you want a drink with your buns there is Hot Coffee next door.
The French are proud of the fact that they have the Eiffel Tower the highest structure in the world; the Garabit-vaduct, the biggest metal viaduct; the Lille de France, 42,000 ton, the biggest steamer built since the war; the Saint Pierre de Vauvray bridge, the biggest bridge; the fastest electric train, running from Paris to Vienna-Ville; Le Bourget, the biggest airfield; the biggest extension-hamara, at Orly; the Canal de Kave, the biggest underground canal; the billion candle power nightlight at Mont Vilier, and the 59,498 bolt-tight alternating current generator at Gare de Vallorche.

will find my observations on some of
them in an article published in the
current number of the British Mission-
ship as an excellent organ of the Colo-
nial Missionary Society.
The Brotherhood Way
I have spent much time, in dealing
with "color" because I feel that
round it is there a clever great deal
of color. I am able to hear
to hear with me as I go on briefly
to deal with the Brotherhood Way.
In the first place let me remind you that the phrase "the world of color" is a correct one. If the population of the world is taken as 1,400 million, 1,000 million of these are men of color. Or, in other words three out of every million of these are men of color. In our British Empire five out of every seven are persons of color in Africa there are 50,000,000 Bantu in the Southern peninsula who are a most virile people and bid fair to be among the most progressive people in the world. The colored man has established himself in this world. He is in the majority. You cannot stamp him with a knife. You cannot keep him down. Therefore the sooner you learn to live with him and help him rise the better for the world at large. He must be shown the Brotherhood Way.
How the World Moves
The world today is moving at a tremendous pace. Take for example the story of the conquest of the air. In 1906 Santos Dumont established a flying record of 35 miles an hour. The first Schneider Cup was won by a Frenchman, Prevost in 1913, who covered 148 miles in the hour. In 1927 an American, Webster, won with a Japanese and averaged 281,689 miles per hour and set up an official seaplane record of 285 miles an hour over a distance of 100 kilometers. This speed was 35 miles an hour faster than that of the Frenchman Bernardi who won the cup in '26. We saw recently how an action by the Frenchman Bernardi in South Africa, which adversely affected some of India's people, threatened to produce an Empire crisis. The world has indeed become a neighborhood. We must convert it into a brotherhood. How are we facing up to this great task?
Mr. Snowden in a recent speech said among other things that "out of the £1. of national expenditure 14s. 6d. was to pay for past wars and for the preparation of future wars," he can never be achieved thus. Organizing for war and you must got war. You cannot bring good out of evil. Fear will never give birth to love. Waste always brings want in its train. The policy dictated destruction, disruption, death. No progress can come along these lines.
A Little History
There was a time in the history of this fair Isle when you were divided into a number of little kingdoms—Merca, Northumbria, East Anglia, Wessox, Essex, and the like. When there were always "wars and rumors of wars" in this "isle set in a silver sea." When almost the only crime of which a man could be guilty was murder, there were not only from among the inhabitants of another kingdom—as if this were his responsibility. Your wise ancestors found that this would never do, that they were actually committing racial and national suicide. They wisely turned from this path and thus you have this England today—whole, united, progressive. England is not the land—not material—but a soul spiritual.
No man at any time,
Not from the dawn of her prime
Up to the hour where we stand
Proud of our land
Proud of our land
Hea seen great England's face
Hes ever truly said: Now by God's grace
I look upon my England and behold How wondrous beautiful she m,
Is but the garment that she wears
availible.
And those far Englanda scattered
through the seae
But the sea of hers she owes upon
the breeze.
Horses unseen.
In my opinion this change which has come over England is an earnest of what must take place in Europe and the world at large. This is the only way. This is God's way. This is the brotherhood way. There is no salvation for the world along any other path. A new spirit of love and brotherhood must be forged for this world. We must create a new spirit, a new atmosphere, a new and loftier way of thinking for this modern world of ours. This is the task of brotherhood.
Just as it is not China with-which we have to deal, but the spirit which animates the Chinese people-and none knows this more than the present warring Generals-so, it is not the world with which we have to deal, but the spirit which animates the Chinese people. And once which animates that intangible something which is the result of the collective thinking of all nations, What Africa thinks, the spirit which animates Africa-whatever the beast or love, hate or brotherhood as is important to the world, as what Britain thinks. Such thoughts are the springs of all human humanity one
put come into her own, until the Brotherhood Way is an established fact among and between the colored peoples who make up three-fifths of the world and the other white people who make up the other two-fifths.
Unfair Treatment Resists
This world is a universed-unity enjoying the possession of one Central Nervous System. If this were not the case, it would have been an impossibility to have established a League of Nations which now comprise nearly all the independent states of the world. What affects one member of this great human family affects the whole. Unhair treatment meted out to Africa reacts adversely upward to the climate, and this very moment paying for the mistakes our forestfathers made in China so will our sons have to pay if we blindly persist in making mistakes in Africa.
I have already made some reference to one of the world's great Empires. When we think of Egypt, Mesopotamia, Babylon, Rome, Carthage, Greece, Spain, must not the thinking man ask himself what constitutes permanence of Empire? What has given to this Empire the permanence and cohesion she now possesses? What will ensure her future permanence? This can be answered in the one word "Service." The Premier; during the course of a recent speech, said: "People are always in debt to life. I do not think everybody realizes this: We owe a debt to those less fortunate than ourselves." This Empire, if it is to last, will not find permanence in her army or navy nor even in her government—she will only find permanence along the road of heroic, disinterested service to the world.
"All you bestow on causes or on men."
Of love or hate of malice or devotion.
Somehow, sometimes, shall be returned again
The motto of the world is give and take.
It gives you favors out of sheer good will.
But unless speedy recompense you make.
You'll find yourself presented with the bill.
When rapture comes to thrill the heart of you
Take it with tempered gratitude. Remember.
Some later time the interest will fall due.
No year brings June that does not bring December.
In the history of Britain, each age has contributed something to make for permanence; Henry the Eighth brought us freedom from the monasteries; Elizabeth gave us the period of expansion, discovery and literature. The foundations of empire were laid then. We began to trade and thus began to develop. In the Seventeenth century we had the struggle for national liberty, the foundations of democracy were laid, and, with the landing of William of Ourselton in England and politics. In the Eighteenth century we had the recognition of the salvability of the masonry and the great work of Woolsey and Whitfield. The Nineteenth century—the Victorian age—wan the scientific age; the age of the railway and the steamboat and marvellous scientific age; the age when we enlarged our constitution and recognized the worth of the individual; the age of a new renaissance and a new expansion. What contribution is our age going to make? What service are we going to render to the world of our ancestors? What tremendous international and interracial problems. Are we going to solve them or is it our purpose to shelve them?
When Rome gave up liberty for amphitea soon began to decay. Do we purpose to follow in her footsteps? Or do we mean to continue at what ever cost our practices of liberty, fraternity and equality for all people?
Laws of God for All
This world is God's world, and the laws of God are effective for all races and for all times. We live in an ordered universe. We, however, fail to react harmoniously to our surroundings. We are not in correspondence with the laws of nature not in tune to receive and accept the life-giving and soul-saving messages which are ever foeing themselves upon us from this hidden world of law and order. This law is directed by righteousness. Righteousness rules the world. Any other method only oblays the cogs of the machinery of the world. The good and the things that make for good and the things that make for evil will fall. Replenish the furniture of your imaginations with these pregnant ideas.
Jesus Christ set up a new meridian for the world. Just as we take our time from Greenwich, so must the world take its moral time from Jesus Christ. The church covered Him up with a cathedral and thought more of the cover than the Christ. The church covered more of the cover than the Christ. See that you do not wept the mistake and think more of the movement than you do of the Christ. See that you do not name the name of brotherhood and hok the spirit thereof. The world is waiting for brotherhood. The world needs brotherhood more than might also. Are you prepared to give love, brotherhood, the Christ, to this world of color? Do the Lord "Lord shall guide their hearts and make strength thy hearts, and then shall be like a wounded wound and like a spring of water whose wherefall not."

Many Articles Get Names From Places of Origin
The peculiar construction of many words in our language is due to the fact that their origin is found in proper nouns, says The Mentor. A limousine is no called from Linoges in France, where carriage bodies of this type were first made; artesian wells are named from the French province of Artois, where these wells were dug; the word bayonet comes from the French town of Bayonnet, where bayonets were made. Canter is an abbreviation of Canterbury gallop, being the easy gait at which the pilgrim rode to Canterbury. Currants first came from Corinth. Coach comes from Koset, Hungary, where coaches were first used. Copper springs from a word derived from Corpus, the island of its original discovery.
The names of many cloths and materials have their source, in the places where they were first manufactured, as callo, from Calluc, damak from Damascus, cambric from Cambal. In this latter place a waver named Baptiste incensed it soft cloth familiarly known in battle. Muslim is so called from Mosqu, a city on the banks of this river, where the chief of its manufacture. Worset is also nurned after the town of its first production, Worset, in Norfolk, England. This is true also of gingham, named for Gungum, Brittany.
The names of many flowers also find their origin in proper nouns. Back of them there are often biographies. The beautiful Japanese flower, wisteria, discovered by Nuttall, was not named after him, but in honor of one of his set title friends, Canpar Winter, a native of antoine, France of Empire. The gown given its name from the Illiyan king Gentius, who was the first to discover its properties. Quansla was named after Qansal, a Norgos slave in Suriname, Dutch Gulian, who used its bark as a remedy for fever.
Lost Key to Etruscan Language Found
BOLOGNA Italy. After twenty years research, Prof. Alfredo Tombetti, of the University of Bologna, claims to have found a means of deciphering Pleurus writings—herotofore attempted only in a few rare bilingual inscriptions, where the text is known in a known language. He is holding his own counsel, however, until the meeting of the congress of Pleurus scholars from all over the world to be held at Florence in April.
The Italian archaeological world is anxiously awaiting the solution of the enigma of the lost people—the discoverer of the Pleurus inscriptions. Great Oriental or Southern Italian; literature they possessed, and whether glories of Latin literature can trace their origin to the Etrurians.
Patriarch of 92 Likes Eels as Food
TOKIO.—The way, to live long is to compose a humorous verse each day, eat only four afternoons of what you want and never borrow money, according to Kihachiro Okura, retired Japanese millongre, who intially celebrated his ninety-second birthday, and was decorated by the Emperor. Okura, who was forerily a baron, but who has transferred the title to his eldest son, told interviewers that the writing of a humorous verse, daily is the most important factor, in attaining that tranquility which makes for health and longevity. He delined, in submitting any of his verse for publication. The aged magnate has seen four Emperors descend the throne. He has seen the time when life insurance companies in Japan were not on speaking terms with toilersmen. He remembers when "hairy barbarians" from the West were put to the sword on the slightest provocation.
Only a few years ago Okura, on one of his anniversaries, told a curious public: that he attributed his good health and long years to the daily eating of cels and rice. At the age of ninety-two, though, after considering his stomach reactions carefully, he has become a regular dieter and good as a regular dieter for a nongeorganian. Consequently, he indulges in cels only now and then.
He still believes in plenty of sleep and no worry. The only way to keep from worrying, he says, is not to borrow money.
Bear Figured in Discovery Of Mammoth Cave
It was about 1800 that the first white man discovered the Mammoth Cave in Kentucky. The story goes that a hunter named Hutchins made the discovery, aided by a bear, but there is some dispute as to whether Hutchins chased the bear into the cave or the both chased Hutchins into it, says the Detroit News.
At any rate Hutchins gets the credit for finding the cave and for bringing to light what is today agreed upon as one of Kentucky's greatest natural assets.
"The cave helped the country in the War of 1812. 'A Mr. McLean had bought the cave and 200 acres of land about its entrance for $46. He sold it to one Gatewood, who in turn sold it to another agent. Arochel Miller, agent for the latter, made a fortune from the cave when in 1812 the government took advantage of what was called "peter diet."
Saltpeter leaches were built in the cave. Wooden vats and pipes were installed and the "miner" proceeded on it work that helped to carry on the war, the saltpeter being used in the manufacture of gunpowder.
MONROE DOCTRINE
QUESTIONED IN GENEVA
GENEVA, Mar. 26—A South American can movement to alleviate the sparing reservation regarding the Monroe Doctrine in the League of Nationsovenant, or at least a disclaimer that the doctrine is construed as a bilateral regional agreement, was launched by the Argentine delegation on the League Securities Commission. Prime Foreign Minister Candilo of Argentina was spokesman. He created a sensation when he explained the reference to the Monroe Doctrine was "gloriously - inaccurate." He added that as a political principle it "owed its origin to the days of the Holy Alliance."
"It conferred great service upon the American peoples in the early days of their existence," he said, in seeking to sugarcrop his attack, "and in that sense it was an important part in the United States, which has played an important part in the history of the world in defense of ideals of liberty and justice."
But Senor Cantilo clearly indicated the doctrine has oculated its usefulness and it should not be understood. that South America today considers it of greater importance than the League covenant.
The Chilian, Colombian and Cuban delegations are known to have approved in advance Senor Cantilo's viewpoint. It is said in official South American circles that his bringing up Article XXI, which deals with the Monroe Doctrine, is an aftermath of Honorio Pueyrredón's walking out of the Havana Conference.
Meanwhile it is said Argentina's reaffiliation with the League in September.
The Chilians and Colombians did not conceal their pleasure that Senor Cantilo brought up for the first time in the history of the League what most South American members have been thinking since Washington refused to join the League.

At Houston, N. C., Goulden office, March 15, in spite of the inconvenience of the weather, Liberty Hall 139 Lincoln street, we divided with a liberal gathering and, a very lightened meeting was held.
The meeting was called to order by our lady president, Mr. Bryant, at 8:15 p. m. with the singing of "From Greenland's Ice Mountain." The usual rites were performed. In keeping with the division's custom, the front page of "The Negro World," "What We Believe," was re-read. Then "God Bless Our President" was sung, after which Mr. Bryant gave some very timely remarks. In complimenting the reading of "The Negro World," "What We Believe," Mr. Moore stated that we as Mr. Garvey has said, believe in race before it is taught. In writing co. lition of Negroes in some parts of the country, he read information concerning the Eldorado diamond mine of Africa. He pointed out that it is the greatest diamond mite that has ever been found. In closing, he asked that we give Mr. Garvey our loyal support.
Mr. Harris, in his inspiriting way, told his hearers that we shall run our race, not with battleships but with brains. He received prolonged applause.
President Harris then arrived. He commented on the result of the late conference that was held here. "In spite of the white man's efforts to keep me down, said Mr. Hayes, "thank God I am ashamed." After the assistant secretary urged all to prepare themselves for carrying on the organization's work, Mr. Graddy spoke on following our leaders. "If we rally to Mr. Garvey," he said, "there is no doubt that our preram will be put over." The meeting closed with the singing of the National, Anthem. — All will witness me when I say that it has been many a day since Kinston has been endowed with such enlightenment and inspiration as was manifested Sunday last.

La imponibilidad de este pain en Sud America es indiscreible, dice W. E. Weld, profesor de Economía de la Universidad de Columbia, quien se encuentra estudiando las condiciones económicas y sociales en aquella parte del continente americano bajo los auspicios de la Albert Kahn Foundation para viajes de estudio por el extranjero de profesores norteamericanos.
Los demás pueblos del universo intentan hacernos creer que Africa es el continente oscuro; pero esa Africa es hoy el continente mas reluciente, es la parte de. mas brillo situada en la faz del globo; es el continente de la luz, por consiguiente no hay nada de oscuro acerca de Africa. Esa grandiosa tierra esta tan alumbrada que atrae la atención del mundo, como la luna, como el sol atrae al mundo por su brillante.
El profesor Weld cite entre otras razones para substanciar su aserción de que existe marcado antagonismo contra los Estados Unidos en todo Hispano América, la intervención de los Estados Unidos en Nicaragua, Méjico y Panama y la terquedad de los comerciantes norteamericanos en negarse a hacer concesiones a los sudamericanos.
Muechas de las personas con quiennes he hablado, anade el profesor Weld, estan de acuerdo en una cosa: El tratamiento que los Estados Unidos dan a las más débiles naciones de Sud América deja la impresión de la dominación del más fuerte y del poder abriéndose paso a toda costa.
Africa esta llena de luz; hay luz y mucho brillo en esa tierra irredenta, porque alli hay oro; Africa esta llena de luz, porque el sobre, el estado, el hierro, el carbón, se encuentra alli, atesorado en las montanas de su rico suelo. veneros de riqueza inextinguibles que el hombre blanco ambiciona, para afianzar su poderio y su decantada superioridad.
El profesor-Weld envio estas declaraciones en un informe fechado en Buenos Aires, capital-donde se encuentra en la actualidad, diciendo que sus declaraciones son producto de guildadosas investigaciones y de prolongadas conversaciones con pedagogos eminentes, abogados financieros, agricultores, etc., de Sud América.
El hombre blanco busca la luz y he aquí el porque le vemos mirar hacia Africa con codicia y grocera ambición, queriendo poseerla a todo transe, sin fijarse en el modo y manera de los métodos que emplee para conseguir su propósito de dominio. Esa es la tierra de nuestros antepasados; jamas la cedieron a nadie y por derechos legales y morales es que ella nos pertenece. No discutiremos con el hombre blanco acerca del Canada; no discutiremos con el un minuto siquiera haciendo esfuerzos para convencerle de que America es nuestra; no trabaremos discusión alguna con el inglés para hacerle ver los derechos que tendriamos como tal; pero si gastaremos todas las energias que nos restan en polémica con cualquier hombre que desee hablar y rabajar el Africa.
Otra de las razones que anota el profesor Weld en su informe y que según el contribuyen a la antipatia que los norteamericanos se están creando en Hispano América, es el supuesto enbarque de mercantias de calidad inferior durante la guerra mundial.
En dos o tres ocasiones, anade he recibido esta contestación a mis preguntas: Hispano América no podra muner oblidar la acción de alguínos de los hombres de negrocio de los Estados Unidos por haberle embarcado artículos de miserable imitación durante la guerra mundial. En algunos casos los concerciantes de Sud América se veían obligados a recibir artículos de clases muy diferentes a las que habían ordenado y muchos artículos de clases muy inferiores en eran colocados despecialmente en los mercados hispanoamericanos.
Al canadiense que posea su Canadá, a los americanos que posean su America y a nosotros que se nos deje el Africa porque es nuestra y nada más que nuestra. En nuestro esfuerzo para recuperar nuestra tierra bendita, hemos de vencer todos los obstáculos que se nos presenten. Llevaremos hacia la inferioridad del cero la propaganda malsana que intenta retenernos en estado de sumisión. Tal propaganda ha hecho mas daño para defraudar las buenas intenciones de las razas y las naciones, que cualquier otra exhibición pública haya podido hacer.
Mr. Weld declara además que apesar de estas censuras, las exportaciones de Estados "Unidos" a Hispano América van'en aumento.
La propaganda es un medio usado por los pueblos en organización para convertir a los otros en contra de su deseo. Nuestro pueblo sufre mas que ningún otro pueblo, mas que ninguna otra raza en el mundo, por esa panfleteria insulsa que tiende a destruir nuestras esperanzas, destriur nuestra ambición, es decir, nuestra confianza en la vida que tan cara nos cuesta y tan penosamente arrastramos en el presente. Nuestro movimiento esta rodeado con ese dime y diré que nosotros entenderemos, toda vez coronemos nuestra obra con los principios y sentados, para la reorgahización político social de nuestra raza.
También declara el informante que una de las cosas que causa más resentimiento en la República Argentina, contra los métodos de los comerciales de los Estados Unidos, es el desalojamiento de los hombres de negocios argentinos como agentes locales tan pronto como las firmas norteamericanas establecen agencias propias en aquella, republica, añadiendo que todo se limita a una cuestión de tacto y entendimiento. Si nosotros entendíenos a Sud América, probablemente modificariamos nuestra manera de actuar lo mismo politicamente que comercialmente, declara el profesor Weld.
Para destruir la utilidad de nuestra organización, para prevenir su exito, pára nublar la esperanza de libertad de esta raza nuestra; esa misma propaganda ha sido organizada haçía el efecto de causar confusión y división entre nuestras huestes y su resultado es el triunfo de los planes de aquellos que siempre intentan sostenernos en esta lastimosa situación, hasta poder exterminarnos por completo.
Según dl, la República Argentina parece por designios de la naturaleza estar-lamida a ser una nación agricultora y no un, enporio fabril, y anade que si la Argentina, prestase atención a aquello para lo cual parece estar mejor equipada para produir, dentro de veinte y cinco años seria una nación con un mercado internacional, nación de intercambio, mucho más importante de lo que es en la actualidad.
Nuestro movimeinto ayuda al negro para que labore en no otro sentido que no sea el enaltecimiento del individuo y de la raza. Este no le enseña a descartar cualquier oportunidad que le sea provechosa y por el contario se le exhorta y predica constantemente que aproveche toda ventaja que hacia el venga.
Mr. Weld predice en su informe
Muchos argullen que el negro puede usar su riqueza industrial y su boleto elecionario para forzar un debido reconocimiento del gobierno del cual es factor importante; pero nosotros debemos entender que ese gobierno está compuesto por un pueblo que nos es hostil y la mayoría de ese mismo pueblo, dicta la pauta que ha deseguir ese mismo gobierno por ellos constituido. Nada mas lógico que dicho gobierno sea impotente para protejer la medida y manera de ser de nuestra raza.
Si el negro tuviera que vivir en otro lado del Atlántico por espacio de quinientos años mas; el se encontraría todavía falta de número para contrarrestar la superioridad de las otras razas. El prejuicio en su contra se acabará solamente cuando el negro venga a hacerse un poder lo suficientemente fuerte, siendo así respetado y tomado en consideración por los demos pueblos del universo.

El Japon tiene que dirigir sus thiruidas hacia el oeste, a la Manchuria y a la Mongolia, para encontrar una solución a su problema de la población sobrante, según ha manifestado Ryohei Uchida, director de la Kokuyaki una fuerza organización nacionalista que posee una gran y esparcida influencia entre los elementos conservadores y ultra-patrióticos del pals.
El mayor peligro del Japon consiste en una imitación superficial de las instituciones occidentales sin adaptar su espíritu a las condiciones japonesas, dijo el señor Uchida. Esto ha motivado el que nazcan problemas graves e importantes.
Los trabajadores de este país, por ejempo, piden ahora que se les trate del mismo modo que son tratados los trabajadores de Europa y América, donde las condiciones naturales son mucho más favorables.
Las condiciones económicas del Japón no permitirán nunca que la nación satisfaga a estos trabajadores hasta el extremo que son considerados los trabajadores de los países extranjeros. Las peticiones que no son satisfecchas motivan resentimiento, tanto justificado como no justificado, y de este modo se está preparando el combustible que quedaría dispuesto a inflamarse si alguien le frente fugo.
Este problema tiene una relación niuy intima con el problema de la población. A medida que la población va aumentando, mayores son las probidades para que aumente el descontento.
Una parte de nuestra población debe ser enviada a algún sitio. Ha población que sobre no puede ser enviada a los Estados Unidos y nosotros tanpoco queroses que vaya, pues un japonés que va a los Estados Unidos en un japonés perdido para el Japon. El único lugar a donde podemos enviarlos o a donde nosotros queroses que vayan es a la Manchuria o a la Mongolia, en cuyos lugares hay grandes extensiones de terreno potencialmente productivas y muy poco pobladas.
En la Manchuria y en la Mongolia hay más de diez y siete millones de acres de terreno que pueden ser fácilmente convertidos en provéchos campos agrícolas con la aplicación de muy poco capital relativa. Si el Japon va alli y desarrola estos vastos terrenos, Rusia y la China también realizarán una utilidad de su producción económica.
Sin considerar para nada las utilidades económicas y las aprotunidades que serán ofrecidas con ello para dar prosperidad a un gran minero de japoneses, los subditos del Japon que emigren a la Manchuria y a la Mongolia no serán perdidos por el imperio, pues en caso de necesidad llamados con facilidad para contribuir a reforzar nuestra defensa nacional.
Uchida puso mucho enfasis al decir que el problema de la emigración a esos dos países debía ser considerado y cumplido como un problema económico sin considerarlo como un movimiento político para amasar un gran pueblo. El señor Uchida afirmó que el Japón no tiene ninguna intención de intervenir con la soberanía que China y Rusia ejercen sobre esos territorios del continente asitivo.
que en los proximos cinco años la historia de la República Argentina será an extremo interesante y digna de que se la sign paso a paso con cuidado sumo.

American and British Millionaires Compared
There are 857 millionaires in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, according to official figures given out by the Revenue Department in London. This, of course, really means multi-millionaires, judging by American standards, because wealth in England is figured in pounds sterling. A pound is worth $4.86, but usually is estimated, roughly at 65.
The British figures are based on the number of persons who reported incomes of $250,000 or more a year, and on the same basis the United States had 2,105 persons in those brackets in 1928, according to the report of the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
England has one millionaire to every 78,555 persons and the United States one to every 51,237, remembering that an American millionaire in this sense would have to be worth at least $5,000,000.
However, according to the last available census figures, the population of the United States is almost two and one-half times as great as that of the British Isles, and on an equal ratio of population there would be an American worth 1,000,000 pounds to every $0.491 persons, or more than three and eight-tenths times the number in England.
138 Have $500,000 a Year
There are 138 persons in England with incomes of more than $500,000 a year, while the United States had 693 persons in these brackets, approximately twice as many when the population differential is taken into consideration.
Woman of Sixty-Six Becomes an Athlete
BALTIMORE, Md., March 20. — A great-grandmother, mdi. sixty-five years, Mrs. Marie Polzin now finds time for athletics which was denied her when she was busy raising a family and attending to household duties.
Mrs. Polzin was one of the happiest of the participants in the clock golf, or indoor putting tournament, of the girls winter carnival, under the auspices of the Public Athletic League. She won a medal, having been placed second. Last year she won first prize.
Mrs. Polzin is the mother of eight children and grandmother of twenty-three. She is proud to be great-grandmother of a child of four years.
Mrs. Polzin joined the gym class of school No. 76 more than three years ago. She has taken part in many interscholastic contexts and wears an medal she won in a ball throwing contest. She plays indoors in the winter and in the park in the summer. "I am never ill," she boasts, "and I feel it and all the time."
World's First Horses Only as Large as Cats
CHICAGO.—The world's first horse so far as is known, were as small as cats. They are known by the scientific name of "obstipus," which means "dawn horse," and according to the estimates of paleontologists, lived about 55,000,000 years ago. A cast of the skull of one such horse found in the Bad Lands of Wyoming and a model shot him as he appeared to life, are on exhibition at the Field Museum of Natural History.
In body and features the obstipus resembled, closely the appearance of the modern animal, but he had four toes. In the museum exhibit there are also skulls, feet and models of larger types of horses, some of which had three toes, down to the modern horse or hoofed horse.

U. S. Has Most Productive Farmers in the World
American farmers produce more per
pair than growers in any other country,
according to Charles J. Brand, who
was connected with the Department of
Agriculture for more than twenty years.
In 1870 the individual production of
grain per acre was 12,000 pounds, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine. In 1925
it had increased to 25,000 pounds.
Since 1890 farmers have increased
their wheat yields by 17 percent, oats
by 14 percent, and potatoes by 38
percent. In 1890 less than twenty farm
acres to each farm worker were used,
but the average farmer now cultivates
thirty-three acres.
There has been a marked increase in the yield of cocoa and development of live stock, such as hogs and cattle. According to Mr. Brand, one of the chief problems now before the American farmer is to grow the same quantities at smaller cost per unit of production. Cultivating tether acres at greater profit is one of the main objectives, he says.
United States Now Finances the World
The United States has become a creditor nation to the extent of $25,600,000,000, the greatest sum ever loaned abroad by any nation in the history of the world, according to Dr. Max. Winkler of New York, who prepared a treatise on the subject for the Foreign Policy Association. The signatures presented by Dr. Winkler are now being studied in Washington. He shows the tremendous outflow of capital from the United States since 1913, when this country was a debtor nation to the extent of billions and the steady rise, in foreign credits of all kinds during and after the war, "American dollars are in demand everywhere." Dr. Winkler sold, and there again no discrimination, anywhere against them, even though there may be certain prejudice against our nationals."
Prejudice, he finds, is largely due to the fact that the whole world is paying tribute to us. The war debts are given as a sound minor item, the payments and the sum due on other credits for exceeding those charges advanced for the conduct of hostilities. D. Winkler concludes that the dollar is in the ascendancy throughout the world. He lists private holdings of securities entirely removed from political obligations at $14,000,000,000.
Historic Culloden Bought
By Herefordshire Man
CULLODEN, Scotland.—The historic estate of Culloden. Inverness-shire, where perished the last hopes of the Stuarts of ever regaining the English throne, has been purchased by John C. Stuart, business-man of Herefordshire. At Culloden, in 1745, 5,000 Highlanders, commanded by Donnie Prince Charlie, whose name is still affectionately cherished in Scotland, were crushed by an English army of 12,000 under the Duke of Cumberland, the brother of King George II. A caten now marks the site where the fighting was fierceest. The estate was in the hands of the Forbes family for hundreds of years.

Penny Candy Sixth Of All U. S. Output
The children plea: Give me a penny for candy, "has not look its meaning since, the days when pennyes would buy other things than sticks of gum and lollipops, says the Associated Press.
Penny candy sales increased by 3,000,000 pounds in 1926, the Department of Commerce has discovered, though prices went down so that the amount spent on penny candy was $1,500,000 less than in the year before.
Sugar, milk, chocolate, nuts, butter, gelatine, syrup and fruits were among the ingredients that went into the making of 177,645,990 pounds of penny candy, which comprised 19 percent of all the confectionery produced in the United States.

THE PEOPLE'S FORUM
Editor of the Negro World:
"I am gathering moth from the present day, so-called 'white civilization.' The recent 'atrocity which occurred in Jackson, Miss. in the South, Sixties of the 20th century, white men upon two Negro boys, whom it was said were associating with white women, and which led up to the damnable result of their being castrated by the white mob, has cast a gloomy shadow over the consciousness of every Negro with a 'backbone in him who happened to be a Negro, who has been outrageous crimes committed upon our unfortunate black brothers in the South by white men.
The writer is not against the white man keeping his race white, but such ichman methods in doing so is nothing short of barbarity. The white man is doing his best and mothinks in the dark, but he has seriously forgotten a bit, of the Holy Scriptures that quote: "For with what judgment ye judge ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mote it shall be measured to you again." If white men should be lynched by black men for raping black women, then are they so exaggerationally small fraction would escape imn-lynched.
The League of Nations, which sets itself up as an outstanding institution of right in this Twentieth century, would gain a 100. per cent recognition from the weaker people of the earth that should take up the noble task by calling upon the civilized world to assist in putting an end to the present conflict in France, as did it abolishing slavery in the Gold Coast of Africa and the white slave trade in Europe and Central America:

Garvey Ever Remains
True to the Cause
Editor of the Negro World:
Please permit me, through your
columns, to say a few words in praise
of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and the
great work being done by him through
the N. L. A. Through his teachings
the Negroes of the world today are
telling hope of the work of an unshaken
faith and confidence in "Garvey" as
they have never, at any time, had in
any other man.
It is not because they have never heard fine lectures or flowery speeches, not because they had not followed other men before with leaf, faith, love and hope. For better things, love and hope, for better things, compromise their great aims and objects which he hold up to his followers to be of such a sacred one, elevating one, and so pure; but when enemies made their hold and vicious attacks to disrupt these leaders would become weak, give up, and be completely and compromise with the enemies, leaving the followers full of ambition to go ahead, but without a leader. Not so with the leadership of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. The more he is pressed the more determined he is to determine, with the help and power of God, to do or die, letting the world know that

to be a trainee to his race would mean a continuation of slavery, and for his race to be enslaved he too, is a slave. And, too, to let world know that the U. N. I. A. means a complete redemption for 400,000,000 of the nation's 400,000 Marvis Garvey deserve, the honor of every black man and woman in the world for falling to compromise the grand and glorious U. N. I. A. that he might get out of prison in Atlanta, Georgia. No compromise for his deportation, but only to fulfill his promise to God that he would redeem the 400,000,000 of his 'people' or die in the instead. Instead of finding Mr. Garvey seekn a compromise, we see him daily bending under that heavy burden of humanity with set jaws, fixed eyes upon Africa, the homeland of 400,000,000 Negroes. Since Garvey will not sell out, we find local men at heads of U. N. I. A. that are different stars in their communities the very principles of the African redemption program.
Few men and women of the N. O. R. race really understand the U. N. I. A. and they often fear to speak—these principles for fear of placing too much stress on "Africa." Any Negro who does not want a government in the land of Africa has no right to officer any U. N. I. A. division, because they have no faith in what is being advertised on the U. N. I. A. website of Marcus Garvey as their leader. I am praying for a speedy consummation of Africa's redemption and I am determined to stick to the plans of the Hon. Marcus Garvey for ever. We are being told that the U. N. I. A. has undergone a reorganization. But thanks to God the Hon. Marcus Garvey, whom we are depending upon for information and guidance as to what are his plans. Thanking you for this opportunity to speak to the many faithful ones. JOS. B. EATON.
Ibn Saud Not Planning
Holy War on Irak
LONDON, March 20 - Having established that Ibn Saud, King of Hedjaz, is not about to launch a holy war against Irak, the British Government today was assigning an answer to overture made to the desert ruler to end tribal raiding on the border.
L: C. M. Antery, Secretary for Dominion Affairs, announced in the House of Commons that the Government had offered to send Brig. Gen. Sir Gilbert Clayton, former Director of Intelligence in Egypt, to consult Ibn Saud.
A Bardad dispatch said that Ibn Saud was attempting to resale control of unruly tribesmen on the border and was meeting with some success. Runners of a holy war were uninfounded, the dispatch added, and people and trade had not been affected by them.
CHICAGO, March 20—In view of Chicago's reputation as a center of, organized iniquity, the opinions of Dr. Henry Seymour Brown, superintendent of the Presbyterian Board of Church Affairs of Chicago, and of the Chicago City of Chicago, "In the religious center of the nation. No other city of more than $00,000 people has no modernized or complete a program for the spiritual life of its people." Dr. Brown cited in substantiation the large number of churches, the largest missionary colleges and "religious societies of all kinds interested in the betrayment of the people."
SANDINO RELATES ABSORBING STORY TO NEWSPAPERMEN
Hits U. S. Invasion of Nicaragua
—Says He Is Making Stand
for All His Countrymen—Intellectuals Were Bought
BY CARLETON BEALS
Writer for "The Nation," who interviewed General Sandin in Nicaragua.
MANAGUA. Feb. 29. All those joining the Sandino forces are obliged to sign a pledge, or "baan," which was given up by general Sandin himself.
12. Cipote in September, 1827, and which, among other things, embodies the following conditions:
Those who join the Army for the Defense of the Sovereignty of Nicaragua agree to:
1. Defend the sovereignty of Nicaragua and obey its military code.
2. Refuse to obey every order of Adolfo Dias and the foreigner and always act in the highest and noblest spirit.
3. Defend not only Liberals but all Nicaraguan, since all are betrayed by the present Government.
4. Submit themselves, questioningly to all the orders of the Supreme Council of the Army.
5. Respect all the rights of the civilian.
6. Make no secret pacts with the enemy.
9. Maintain proper dispelling.
10. Expect no salary, only necessary equipment such as clothes, ammunition and food.
11. The Supreme. Chief of the Army in turn promises to make no political compromises with anybody or with anyone during the war.
Afterading the plodge Sandino said: "We are working, as you see, for all of Nicaragua, Conservatives and Liberals alike." Colonel X, here, for instance, is a Conservative, convinced of the righteousness of our cause. Our one aim is to throw out the foreign invader.
"But since you are not strong enough so do, does not opposition merely result in the sending of more and more marines, the intensification of Intervention."
Visions Central American Union
"We are not protesting against the size of the invasion, but against invasion. The United States has medied in Nicaragua for many years. We cannot merely depend upon her promise that she will some day get out. Every day intervention is more pronounced." The United States promised to give the Philippines their independence, but American troops still remain in the Philippines; they are still a subject people. According to that argument, Washington should never have driven the Nicaragua should never have driven out the Spaniard, Italy should never have driven out the Austrian. All the Central American countries should have remained subject to Spain, because at the beginning their insurrectionary forces were weak. We should have remained, positively under the yoke of Spain until Spain voluntarily decided to free us.
"You tell me that the governments of Honduras and El Salvador are posite to me. Tomorrow they will regress such an attitude. All of Central America is morally obliged to help me in this struggle. Tomorrow each may have the same struggle. Central America should stand together against the invader instead of with the gov-

"Then you are in favor of Central American union." Certainly. But the union of Central America for this and other ends must spring from voluntary disaffection and never from coercion. For foreign nations, such as those of 1867, and 1872, however well meant, are worthless because they were imposed upon us. They did not spring from the organic system by which we are governed, but from the theoretical conceptions growing out of the needs of American imperialism. Their application depends upon the arbitrary whim of the United States of America to turn subject to the caprice of American politics.
"It is true, as has been charged, that most of your army is made up of adventurers from other Central American countries and from Mexico."

"Quite the contrary. It is true I have with me men and officers from Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Panama, who have been attracted by the right-ousness of my cause, but they are in a decided minority. The backbone of my army is Nicaraguan, and the officers who have been with me longest are Nicaraguanians. I have received many offers from outside troops, but in most cases I have turned them down."
"Our army," Sandino told me. "I tried and true. It is composed of our own country. The intellectuals have betrayed us, and so we have had to take up arms. What we have done has been through our own unified efforts."
"A lie of the marine officers to hide their discomfiture at our successes: It is comforting to the American ego to think that we wore taught what we know by the marines." . . .
"I asked Sandino. "do you consider the motives of the American Government?"
"The American Government," he said with a lurking smile, "desire to protect American lives and property. But I can say that I have never touched a pin belonging to an American. I have had respect for the property of everybody. And no American who has come to Nicaragua without arms in his hands has been captured." "The protecting American lives and property; you imply, must be a protext."
**Denounces Concessions**
"The truth of the matter is that the American Government has made so many carrings to him, a character with the regime power in power that it is afraid of any other government. But if I had been'in the shoes of the, American Government and had forced the present Nicaraguan regime to give away the rights of my brother Nicaraguans, and then had seen justice coming down the straightway, I would. have known that the mother to accede gracefully had come. We had no right on any steps, rather than drown a nation in blood."
"And the canal?"
"No More Bandits than Washington"
Sandino replied: "Already we have been robbed of our rights in the canal. Presumably, we were paid $3,000,000. As a matter of fact, Nicaragua, or rather the bandits in control of our government at that time, thanks to Washington, received but paltry thousands, not enough for each Nicaraguan."

police to buy a codec, reorder and a carbine; such a balkan signified by four trifles; we lost our sovereign rights in the canal. The deliberties regarding the ship were made by a folk songman behind shores guided by Conservative Party troops hooked up by Yankee bayonnets. My own father was arrested for protest and the resulting of Nicaraguan military naval rights to the United States. It would have been far better had each Nicaraguan received a cracker and a sardine. A few starving stomachs would have known at least one nibble of luxury. Personally, I should hope to see the Nicaraguan canal built by a private stock company, part of the shares to be held by the Nicaraguan government in return for rights granted, in order that we might have a future income not provided by bankers or roadways, which to build roads, railways, schools, the economic condition of the country. As it is, the eighteenth years of American meddling in Nicaragua have merely plunged the country deeper and deeper into e-onomics misery.
"Let me repeat," declared the general, "we are no more bandits than was Washington. If the American public had not become calloused to justice and to the elemental rights of mankind, it would not so easily forget its own past when a handful of ragged soldiers marched through the snow leaving blood-tracks behind them to win liberty and independence. The American people would not so casually use their power to crush and enslave a weak and, until yesterday, defenseless people." If their consciences had not become diluted by their, scramble for wealth, they would not so easily forget the lesson that, sooner or later, what ever the odds, every nation, however weak and faltering, achieves freedom, and that over-abuse of power hastens the destruction of the only who wields it. We march to the clear light of the sun or to death. But if we die, the patrials live on, indestructible. Others will succeed us."
James A. Garfield virtually hold three high offices at one time—President, Senator and Representative. When elected to the Senate, Garfield already was holding the office of Representative in Congress, but it was not until 1881 that the office to take either the Senate or the Presidency, for his term of Representative was to expire March 4, 1881, when he was to be inaugurated. He was, after January 14, 1880, Representative in Congress and Senator-elect. While nypeters stood thus there came to him the nomination for the Presidency in the summer of 1880, with the help of a group of senators that from the date of election to his letter of renunciation, January 7, 1881, he was also President-elect.
