SEND ORDERS TO MRS. AMELIA SAFERS, BOX 22, STATION I, NEW YORK CITY
Fellow-Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: Owing to the tremendous pressure of business and traveling I have been unable to send you for a few weeks my regular weekly message, but I take the opportunity of now saying that all is well and encouragingly so. The great work of the UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION is speeding up with a rapid momentum and all bids fair for a wonderful and tremendous convention in 1929.
Foreign Field Rallying
The foreign field of our great organization is rallying for new life as never before, and I can see nothing else but success for our work. I am appealing to all the American Divisions to get together and present a united front, for our plans for 1928-1929 must mean a real stabilized organization ready for and engaged in progressive activities for the good of the race.
Great Possibilities
The commercial, industrial and agricultural possibilities between the Negroes of America, the West Indies and Africa are good and inviting, and in a short while we shall so line up things as to stem the tide of our economic weakness. There is no reason why a great trade relationship cannot be developed between the members of our race all over the world so as to make us a self-reliant and progressive people. If the Negroes of America would only ignore traitors like W. E. B. Du Bois who try to discourage the race from independent action, then we could co-operate to advance our people and make them free from the domination of the white man.
The Good to Be Done

Foreign Field, He Says, Is Rallying as Never Before—Great United Effort to Be Presented in 1928-1929
Economic Weakness of the Race Soon to Be Corrected by Development of Inter-Race Trade Relationship
EMBARKS ON EUROPEAN TOUR-IN A FEW DAYS IN THE INTEREST OF ALL NEGROES
On Return Will Annquince New Program for Greater Co-operation—Again Warns Negroes of America to Ignore Race Jellyfishes
against the dreadful days of unemployment of the Negro by the white man it was Negroes like Du Bois and Pickens who fought me for the white man until they delivered me up to him to be persecuted, but thank goodness I can do now much more good for the Negroes of America and the world, and these white men's Negroes will not be able to frame me as they did in America. I am laying a solid foundation on which the American, West Indian and African Negroes can build, and all I ask is the co-operation of all.
Leaving for Europe
I shall leave for Europe in another few days, where I shall represent the interests of all the people of America, Canada, the West Indies, South and Central America and Africa. On my return to Jamaica I shall give out our new program for greater co-operation. The Hon. E. B. Knox, my personal representative in America, as leader of the American Negroes, is now on his way at sea to confer with me on the plans we must work out for our forthcoming Convention. It is our hope that in the near future a commercial, industrial and social contact will spring up between the American Negroes and
the West Indians so that we can foster a healthy trade relationship to our economic benefit. Untold millions can be made by the American Negroes by investing in the lands, trade and commerce of the West Indies. White men are now making their millions, but with the proper organization both American and West Indian Negroes can reap the benefits for the quicker glory of a redeemed Africa. Trade is the backbone of life, and the Negro must realize that it is only by intelligently following these economic lines can he lift himself to world recognition, power, and independence.
Much in Store
There is much in store for us to do and accomplish and I can promise you that I shall do my part to point you the way. I am hereby reminding all foreign Divisions to see that their reports reach the Foreign Headquarters at Kingston, Jamaica, regularly each month and that all American Divisions of the Organization report regularly each month to the American Headquarters at New York. All Divisions and members are requested to pay up the annual tax to be financial. This new start of ours to build the Organization must be indulged in by every member and Division. Let us go ahead and place the UNIVERSAL NEGRO-IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION where it ought to be.
With very best wishes, I have the honor to be,
Your obedient servant,
President-General,
Universal Negro Improvement Association. Kingston, Jamaica, B.W.I., March 24, 1928.
Delegates to International Missionary Council at Jerusalem Rap Hypocrisy of the Great Powers—Welfare of Exploited Peoples Held of No Account—God of Materialism Enthroned—Christianity Only a Name—America Partly Pagan, Says Bishop
JERUSALEM, March 27. Although the major theme of the opening discussions of yesterday's sessions of the International Missionary Council was foray and content of the Christian message in relation to non-Christian systems, after the leading address by the Rev. Dr. Robert Speer, Moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly of the United States, vigorous challenges to purely theological considerations were made at a section meeting during the afternoon by R. H. Tawney, Professor of Economics at London University, and Harold Grinshaw, chief of the native labor section of the International Labor Office at Geneva.
During the afternoon, the council divided into five section meetings, considering, Mohammad meghism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Copticism and secularism, and the Christian message in relation to each of these non-Christian systems.
The largest group was that considering secularism, and hence the theological presentations of the meaning were challenged. Dr. Speer in his address and said that the greatest danger to Christianity today was the secular conception. The missionary task, he said, was to disguise Christ from all that obscured Him in the minds of perplexed mankind. The person of Christ must be the center and fulfiling point of the missionary movement.
Professor Chao of China, author of a philosophy of Christianity, declared that secularization of civil civilization was a real peril all over the world. Dr. Watson, President of the American University at Carlo, said that Egyptian Mosgolms were deeply affected by the secularist movement. The chimney of a cotton mill went up alongside a minaret, so cotton was becoming the real center of the life of the people instead of the thought of Allah.
**Philippine Church:** Correspond of the M. Theodore Episcopal Church in the United States, voiced a the opinion. "I come from a motion which is in nome respondo pagan. We subscribe to the doctril of militarism and to the god of materialism, and we have ourselves over to the pursuit of wealth. We should not be compulsive regarding paganism wherever we see it, but let this meeting become a challenge to it."
As a clerk of the morning addresses, Professor Tawney, in the afternoon, replied:
"I cannot share the complacency of those who talk about all the good things we have to offer to backward peoples when we cannot point out a single country in Europe where there is a real Christian civilization operative throughout its society.
"We are trying the impossible in offering to save the individual, not leading the social, framing person, the condition man, the milieu the worker, the bell-maker, wants to know what organized Christianity in going to do to latter the world be habitable. If the Christian Church is to lead the way into the future it must enter the field of human society."
Explicitation Alleged
Mr. Gilmshaw likewise challenged saying:
"What self-called Christian civilizations have most largely exported to Africa and the East is economic exploitation, inspired by no higher motive than the desire for immediate gain, holding us of no account the social welfare of exploited peoples, and resulting often in depopulation, deflation and death.
"What had European Christianity to say of the recent race in which a European Parliament admitted that 84 per cent of an African continent of forced laborers had died? Not a word, so far.
"Missionaries must have known of this and similar cases. I have not heard their outcry. We know what Christ offers to the oppressed. What does Christianity order to those help-

The entire evening session was devoted to a talk by David Yur, chairman of the National Christian Council of China. In his discussion of China's problems he brought up the question of communism there, asking:
"Communism is nothing new in China. Continuing ago the people tried it and it failed. The Chinese have neither accepted nor rejected communism; rather, their attitude is one of indifference.
Beda Taught "Terrorism"
"The uninterrupted of Soviet Russia this time did not try to introduce communism, which as a system they declared too high, high for our people to try at present. What they actually taught the Chinese was a system, of effective propaganda and the power of terrorism. It was not communism that fed us to enter into diplomatic relations with the Soviets, but we were persuaded by their offer of apparently disinterested friendship.
"With Soviet aid, remarkable victories in warfare, as well as in diplomacy, were achieved. The sense of appreciation of this should not be mis-taken for acceptance of communism.
"Let me point out explicitly that the maturity of Chinese do not want foreign help or interference in their national affairs, but prefer working out their own salvation. Our students have been taught that the ingressions and exploitation of the foreign powers in China are such as to make it impossible for us to revive ourselves until the death grip of foreign imperialism upon the throat of the nation is removed. Concrete instances can be given in abundance.
"As long as economic and social problems remain unresolved they will lend themselves to an increase in the apical power of communist propaganda. To that extent the influence of the soviets will continue to exert itself in China. The economy is not in jeopardy, but it continues no food on which it must may feed and formulate from within."
LONDON. March 20. — Significant progress toward co-operation between the Simon Reform Commission and the Indian Nationalists has been registered on the eye of the commission's departure from India after its preliminary investigation, dispatches from Bombay tonight, indicative. Sir John Simon, chairman of the commission, who will report to Lord Birklead, Secretary of State for India, next month, and other commissioners, not Indian leaders at the vice-president, at Delhi prior to leaving the capital. Sir John is reported even to have been willing to meet Mahatma Gandhi, the Hindu extremist leader.
Informal talks across Viceroy Lord Irwin's dinner table are said to have progressed to a point where the Indian leaders began waiving objections to the organization of the Refoin Commission. They are reported to have agreed to dispense with the royal warrant for naming the native committee which will co-operate with the commission if Sir John is able to extend the commission's terms of reference, so as to invest Indians with full equality. Indian "dispatches" say that much significance is attached to today's comment of the "Allahabad Pioneer," leading organ of the British "carrion," which declares "unless Lord Irwin is purposely ignorant of the true state of affairs he must retract the advice the government cabled from London, preventing the appointment of Indians to the commission, and he must be look-in for a middle way to preserve the credit of the King and satisfy the desires of Indians.
Kemal and Shah to Follow Afghan King to Europe
LONDON, March 31...Inspired apparently by the elaborate European welcomes to King Ammanullah, and Queen Souriya of Afghanistan, two other monarchs have indicated that they are considering touring Germany, France and England. They are Mustapha Kennel, President of the Turkish Republic, and the Shah of Persia, a ruler who dramatically disposed his predecessor. It is obvious that both rulers because of the novelty of their visitation to the West and their political significance will have great shows of power and popup spread before them.
GET OUT, EGYPT TELLS ENGLAND IN REGENT NOTE
New Premier Resists British Effort to Legalize Occupation — "Egypt for the Egyptians"
Cry Is Raised—London "Little Surprised"
LONDON. April 1. A clear-cut challenge to, the British claim to control Egypt is conceived in a note to Great Britain from Nahus Pasha, the new Egyptian Premier.
Although the text is not available, it is understood Egypt refuses to permit interference with the Egyptian Parliament's legislation, as threatened by Lord Llewd, British High Commission, in his note of March 4. No interference with the country's internal affairs by a foreign power can be recognized, says the Premier.
But the Egyptian Government promises to maintain order and protect foreigners and foreign interests.
The present situation arose out of Egyptian rejection of a draft treaty legalizing British military occupation. Lord Lloyd in reply declared Great Britain "vows with misgiving certain leagish" a proposal introduced in the Egyptian Parliament."
He added his government could not permit any administrative or legislative action endangering British responsibilities in Egypt, and he ended by the threat to stake such steps as the situation may command.
There are two bills in the Egyptian Parliament which, the British, it is understood, will refuse to permit to become operative if passed. One provides that in future village mayors shall be elected instead of appointed by the central government. The other withdraws the present prohibition on political demonstrations and public meetings.
The British view is that the state of Egyptian feeling at present would result in the extreme Nationalists effecting mayors. If elections are permitted and that free speech might cause riots and bloodshed.
LONDON. - April 2.—The Egyptian Government's node asking the British politely but firmly to clear out of Egypt caused little surprise in official circles here. Since Nahas Pasha had come Prime Minister the Foreign Office has expected some spectacular action on his part.
The Egyptian Prime Minister is as much of a fire eater as the late Zachari Pasha, without, however, possessing the latter's great shewness.
On the eve of the general election in Egypt a platform of "Egypt for the Egyptians" is essential, for the Nationalist party. Consequently the British Government is inclined to treat lightly Nahas Pasha's demands.
The Foreign Office maintains that continued military occupation of Egypt is necessary, not only on account of the fact that the Sino-Tibetan is vitally important to imperial communications, but also because the British Government is responsible for the safety of foreigners.
Lord Blood points out to Nahua that should the British Government ever consent to withdraw the army of occupation—which is out of the question—Italy, France and probably Greece would at once hand durances to protect the interests of their nationals, who so far have been protected by the British. This would be in accordance with international conventions so long as the capitulatory system exists in Egypt and the Egyptian Government is unable to guarantee the lives and property of foreigners.
Nahua Fashua's note will be answered in the course of the next week and all his demands rejected. The British authorities are not worried, since the army of occupation is sufficiently strong to deal drastically with any complication which—may occur at Calro or Alexandria. These two cities are the only places where disturbances are likely to take place.
The rest of the country is reported quiet. The Egyptian peasants are entirely unconcerned whether British troops remain in Egypt or whether village martyrs appointed by the Central Government are elected.
CONSTANTINOPLE — The "up-to-date" edition of the Bible which has recently been published in England and America have their analogue in a modernization of the fourgon. This is done, however, not through a tetranslation or revision of that book, which will continue to be read in Arabic but in a radical new interpretation of it.
The Ministry of Education has just published a book of worms which it is made compulsory for the Mahomotan clergy to read to the public in the mosques. And these sermons, which are in the Turkish language, "understood of the people," are composed in what may be described as the Kemalatic spirit, applied to religion as well as to the politics, and social customs of Turkey. In them the Koran is treated not as an inspired and supernatural work, but simply as a rule of conduct. In this way it is absolutely required to make each monque a school for the preparation of the Kemalist ideals and principles, and thus in religion as well as in politics, and social customs to bring the Turkish mind to conform more closely with that of Europe.
TETUAN, Spanish Morocco.
April 1. The help to the Abyssinian throne is serving in the Spanish Foreign Legion as a buck private under an assumed name, it became known here today.
His identity was revealed only through diplomatic inquiries made by the Abyssinian Government.
Now, royal honors await him at the headquarters of the Legion here, which he is expected torench, soon from the post where he has been helping to guard the Spanish zone from rebel incursions.
The Almanac de Gotha gives Tajal Makofen as his heir to the throne and regent. He was born in 1831. He is married and has five children.
("The Negro World." A. P. messages notwithstanding, will never believe that Tajari Makonnen was serving in the Spanish Legion as a buck private because he, hatred Morocco and loved Spain.)
NICARAGUA CANAL BILL INTRODUCED
Creation of Commission and Quick Action Urged—$200,000,000 to Be Spent
WASHINGTON, March 27.—Senator McKellar (D. Tenn.) today introduced a bill for creation of a Nicaraguan Canal Commission with a view to the construction and maintenance of a Nicaraguan canal. He would finance this project by issuing $200,000,000 in thirty-year 3 percent Government bonds. His measure also provides $10,000,000 for surveys.
The President under the McKellar bill would be authorized to direct the Nicaraguan Canal Commission to construct a canal, from a point on the shore of the Caribbean Sea, near Growtown; by way of Lake, Nicaragua, to a point near Brito on the Pacific Ocean.
"We should hot wait until the Panama Canal is concocted as to turn away business before we start work on the Nicaragua canal," he added. "We ought to start work at once."
Mr. McKellar asserted that the building of this canal would help to solve the Nicaragua canal problem by giving that country money to liquidate its debts.
The charge of an economic burden of $50,000 to $100,000 a day to maintain the 2,500 marines in Nicaragua was added today to the Congressional on-shutting on the Administration's policy of intervention.
The accusations made by Representative LaGuirral (R, N. X), brought from Administration spokesman the statement that the Government has been unable to estimate the cost of sending and maintaining the exproprietary forces and that such estimates would be deferred until the next deficiency appropriation bill.
Today's debate started as the House reached the section of the Navy Department appropriation bill relating to expenses of the marine corps.
Croatian Paper Carried
An Amazing Story of
II Duce's Cowardice
The Negro World is indebted to a correspondent for the following news item which we do not recall having seen in the American newspapers. Let us hope that II Duce, who would enslave all North Africa if he could, did not prove himself to be quite as palpable a coward as the Croatians declare he did.
Zuruch, Cronstadt, January 12.
A story amazing even for the Croatian press which has produced some remarkable items of Italian news, was published today in the "Creat People's Voice" as to a duel said to have occurred between Count Calvi, son-in-law of King Victor Emanuel, and Premier Mussolini.
The paper's version of this recent and hitherto unknown duel is that Mussolini desired to strike some new two-tone coins bearing his own likeness and the inscription "Duce Mussolini" on one side and the historic insignia of the Fascists on the reverse.
The King is said to have told II Duce to discuss the matter with Crown Prince Humbert who invited Count Calvi to the conference. Whilst the discussion was in progress, a remark of the Premier, so the story goes, gave offence to the Crown Prince, who left the room.
Count Calyx is then reported to have challenged Musolini to fight a duel with swords, and the Premier accepted. It duce is said to have appeared on the field of honor wearing a coat of armour under his pocket; so that when the Count thrust a sword at him it was broken.
The amazed Count is said to have hurled the remaining half of his sword at Musolini's face, exclaiming: "Coward!"
The Crout paper says Musolini suffered painful injuries of the neck and chin, and that he has secreted himself in his palace to hide the wounds.
EVILS OF SLAVERY ARE SPREADING BUT THE EXPLOITERS WOULD MAKE US BELIEVE THEY HAVE REFORMED
REPUBLICAN SOP TO NEGRO CLERKS
WASHINGTON, March 31. — The Hoover campaign managers, worried over the threats of Negro leaders to omit their candidate, have taken steps here to placate them.
Administration officials have moved to stop the cry of "segregation" in executive departments. Negro clerks in the Census Bureau, Department of Commerce, have been promoted within the last few days from the basement floors and other segregated sections to better jobs and more desirable quarters.
The charge of "segregation" has been repeatedly made against the Treasury Department, the Department of Commerce and the Department of the Interior. Secretary Hoover, Negro workers assert, has now yielded to their pressure, but Secretary Mellon and Secretary Work still hold out against it.
The change at the Census Bureau followed a conference between Secretary Hoover and some of his bureau chiefs on the one side and, on the other side, Neval H. Thomas, president of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Robert J. Nelson, executive director of the Civil Liberties Bureau of Colored Ellis, and E. W. B. Curry, Negro editor of Spinfield Ohio, who is a candidate for delegate to the Republican National Convention on the Hoover ticket.
Southernern. Take Note.
The report of the new deal for the Negro employees of the Census Bureau spread rapidly on Capitol Hill today. Southern Democrats who have been asserting that many of their constituents would vote for Mr. Hoover over Governor Smith said the Administration was mailing it easier for the "dry South" to turn to the local option Governor of New York.
The Invercock dropout, south of the Mason-Dixon line today, Manx calls were made at the Department of Commerce to ascertain the truth about the readmission there. The explanation given has in the form of a handout on the "better accommodations provided for Negro workers, in the Census Bureau," which reads: "The Bureau of the Census in the source of its work has developed a division, dealing with statistics particularly affecting the colored people, and in a desire to extend employment to colloquial members of the staff it placed this division in their control, and naturally the whole division was centred in one room.
"Recently some complaint has been made that it amounted to segregation, which was against the orders and the practice of the Department of Commerce. Upon the return from Europe of the Director of the Census a few days ago the matter was caused to his attention and he at once distributed the colored members throughout the staff. Some twelve or fourteen persons were involved."
But Negro leaders told The World correspondent that Curry came here to see what could be done to check the nation-wide movement of his race against Mr. Hoover because of alleged unjust discrimination in his department, and that he had succeeded in his efforts. They declared they were satisfied with the cordial reception given them by Mr. Hoover and his action in correcting conditions at the Census Bureau.
Discrimination Against Negroes at New York U.
The executive committee of the Conference. Against Racist Discrimination held a meeting last Friday night at St Mark's Methodist Episcopal Church, New York City, to protest against discrimination against Negroes at New York University. Three instances of such discrimination had come to the committee's attention.
Thomas Young, of Norfolk, who applied by mail for a room in 1926, was at first assigned a room, said Mr. Moore, and then, when he appeared in person, his reservation was cancelled. Reba McLeain, who looks like a white woman, was at first accepted as a student, in a physical education class, he said, later to be excluded when her color was unasserted. Mattie May Neely, he said, was barred from a similar class on the ground that her stand was now high enough to take on the additional work.
Paris Museum to Save Language and Gesture
PARIS—Sing, and colloquialisms, good language, and bad, and the gestures that go with the words, are to be permanently preserved in the Museum of Words and Gestures. This queer, sounding place, just founded by the city, will be under the tutelage of the Horbonse. French as it is spoken—and written—will be saved for students of the future. A laboratory of phonetics will be installed—and all possible data on the language from the earliest times will be on tap for philologically inclined inquiries.
NEW METHODS, AN OLD VICE—WORSE EVILS
Political, Economic, Industrial and Education Systems Fashioned with Sole Intent of Keeping the Negro in the Position of Servant to the White Man—What Is the Remedy?
In the following admirable article, admirable in every respect except in its concluding sentence, the Gold Coast Times, a very popular and influential West African newspaper, throws the spotlight upon the subtlety with which the white man continues to garner in the profits of slave methods he still employs, while trying to make it appear that slavery is repulsive to him and his. Why THE NEGRO WORLD thinks the concluding sentence of this article mars an otherwise able thesis on "Modern Slavery" will be told in the next issue of THE NEGRO WORLD:
Modern Slavery
The liberation of nearly a quarter of a million domestic slaves in the Protectorate of Sierra Leone in the New Year has been given a wide publicity abroad as a great reform by the British Government, though we in West Africa, who know of the lot of the domestic slave to be only a trifle harder than the condition of the other section of the native community—the mass of natives who are the victims of the political and economic exploitation of the whites races—have not attached as much significance to the incident as those who are not well informed of local conditions. Still, slavery is slavery under whatever name it passes; and any system that enables one section of the community to regulate or restrain to any extent the personal liberty of the other is not in accord with the spirit of the law and must be removed.
MEXICO CITY, March 29.—Mr Sandino had arms and upmotion, he would have 10,000 troops tomorrow, and if he entered Managua he would be given a hero's ovation. The marines claim that Sandino's men don't know what the fight is all about, but the truth is that the Sandinistas know more than the marines.
Carleton Beals, writer for "The Nation" of New York, in an interview here today, thus spoke of conditions in Nicaragua, from which country he has just returned after having spoken with Augustino Sandino, the royal leader, whose force the United States marched in that country are trying to extirpate.
Mr. Beals declared that Sandino's future is uncertain, as he may fall immediately or may hold out indefinitely. Sandino's men, he said, are fed on a diet; they are fighting for liberty and believe in its glorious martyrdom.
"I suppose," Mr. Beals added, "that the marines are fighting for the Monroe-Doctrine."
The magazine writer declared that it would require between 15,000 and 20,000 American marines properly to police Nicaragua, and that possibly even then Sandino could not be captured. President Díaz told him he said, that it would require no fewer than 10,000 marines.
Mr. Beals declared that Sandino, with a man difficult to describe, but who certainly had fascinated him.
Mr. Beals required a month to make the trip from Nicaragua to Mexico City, saying that at San Jose, Guatemala, officials refused him a permit to land until three days after his arrival. Then he was given permission only on condition that he take the first train to the frontier without stopping off. He was under watch at Punta Arenas, Costa Rica, and was informed that it was best to depart immediately.
Mr. Firestone, accompanied by Mrs. Firestone, has been in Liberia since early January, preparing for last week's radio test. In his first report today he said that the Liberian government officials were co-operating in the company's effort to make Liberia an important neither producing country. He also reported that in the past year the field forces had laid out two 50,000 acre plantations, one on the Dil River and the other on 50 miles south on the Cavala River. These two plantations represent a beginning in the cultivation of 1,600,000 acres, he said. The first trees will bear five years from the date of planting and some rubber now is being made into tree from a small plantation previously cultivated. C.P.K.
Liberia's Rubber Hastens Direct Radio Contact With the New World
AKRON, Ohio—Direct radio communication between the industrial city of Akron and the newly opened rubber fields of Liberia was established last Monday with receipt of a message from Mary C. Firestone, Jr., painter in inspection trip to the rubber plantations of the Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. in Western Africa.
The message was sent from a station 4,600 miles distant to the local station on the roof of the Firestone plant. The transmitters of both stations operate on a wave length of approximately 43.5 meters.
The incident of domestic slavery in Sierra Leone will, however, recall to many that slavery in various forms still exists in different parts of the world and is not likely to become extinct for some time to come. We have first of all slavery in the naked form of buying and selling men, women and children, a trade which was carried on in many parts of Africa, particularly in the West Coast, for some
of black people were torn from their homes amid the most revolting circumstances and transported to the sold abroad by the white people who professed and called themselves Christians, and the fact that this tragic was sanctioned by the Pope's head of Christendom shows the low moral outlook of mankind in the days of the slave trade. Happily this form of slavery is gradually becooming—a relic of the past with the growth of the moral consciousness of mankind and is now confined to a few dark places of the world.
Has Left Its Imprint
But this sordid business, this harter in hanker beings, has left its imprint on the mentality of the white races which engaged in the trade; for the British, the Portuguese, the Dutch and others who took a leading part in this traffic still hold the idea that they have a property right in the black race, and that if African natives may not now be kidnapped and sold in the foreign market in the old-time fashion they can be made to work for the enrichment of the white man. Now, in considering the question of slavery, work are not to overlook the main object behind it. What was the purpose of the slave trade, one well ask? Its purpose was to supply cheap labor for the European-owned plantations in America and elsewhere in order to render those industries profitable to their owners. That was the main purpose of the slave trade, and the sufferings and bondage impaired upon the hapless victims were only incidental to the attainment of the object in view.
System of Forced Labor
The slave trade has left its morbid effect on the mentality of the white races, which participated in it, for though they have changed their methods they are still pursuing the object that led them to this enterprise. The arbitrary manner in which they have partitioned the African Continent among themselves, deposing African rulers and decimating, with punitive expeditionation the tribes who dared to oppose the invasion of their territory in the process of annexation, and no

LEADER'S GABLEGRAM FROM JAMAICA THANKING MEMBERS FOR LOYALTY EVOKES WILD OUTBURST OF CHEERS
Hon. Mme. M. L. T. Ebimber Recalls That Thorns and Thistles, and Not Palms, Were Strewn in the Great Leader's Path on His Entry Into

Says Marcus Garvey Is Blessed, for He Has Brought Salvation to Downtrodden Race—Young Men and Women Urged to Go Forward with Earnestness and Determination
LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, Sunday Night, April 1.—Another excellent mass meeting was staged here tonight, when hundreds of the loyal members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and their friends, flocked to the forum of Negro liberty to drink in the inspiration served up by the various speakers. This being the first Sunday of the month, the day known as Garvey Day, special honor was paid to the absent chieftain, and the emotions of the vast audience found an outlet at the conclusion of the reading of a message, sent by the Hon. Marcus Garvey in Jamaica in response to one cabled him last week on the occasion of the celebration of the 12th anniversary of his entry into America.
In the absence of the Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President General, now conferring with the great leader in the island of Jamaica, Hon. Mme. M. L. T. Ebimber was the chief speaker, and she spoke eloquently on the subject, "Blessed is he that cometh to bring us salvation." Mr. J. H. Miller, 1st Vice-President of the New York Local, was in his accustomed role of chairman. The concert program, which followed exercises by the auxiliaries, included an anthem by the choir, "I Will Follow My Leader"; a soprano solo, "The Palms," by Mrs. Paul, and a soprano solo, "Garvey Is Calling," by Miss Ethel Collins. The Universal Band, under Professor Ulric Hassel, as usual, acquitted itself creditably.
Greetings from Jamaica. B. W. I..
Mrs. A. Muelle, who was first introduced, said she had, the great pleasure of being the bearer of greetings from the Honorable Marcus Garvey and his wife, Honorable Lady Hennetta Vinton Davis, and the officers and members of the Kingston, Jamaica, division. She said the advent of the Honorable Marcus Garvey in Jamaica had given the association now like there, and on all sides the people, were to be heard expressing regret that his duties would soon take him from their midst on a tour of Europe.
MR. J. HARRISON'S ADDRESS
Mr. J. Harrison, a frequent speaker at Liberty Hall, next addressed the meeting, stressing in his characterlutie, vigorous way the necessity for, the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to shun religious hypnosis and keep their hands in Garvey's hand, as they had pledged to do. They could not go far wrong doing this, for the Negro was assured, Garvey had his hand in God's hand.
MR. J. H. SMITH'S ADDRESS
Mr. J. H. Smith, a veteran member of the New York Logan, followed. In the course of a brief address he said he had to give thanks for the fact that the old spirit of ignorance and cowardice that permeated the Negro for the past two or three hundred years was vanishing. Full spiritual emancipation had not been secured, however, and this would not be long in coming if Negroes, one and all, heeded the voice of the Honorels Marcus Garvey and lived up to the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association.
MR. HANLEY SPEAKS
Mr. J. Hanley, another stalwart member of the New York Local, next spoke, urging the members to continue to hold the fortress they were so enthusiastically doing at present.
MISS COLLINS ADDRESS
Miss Ethih Collins, and Lady Vice-President of the New York Local, spoke as follows:
"There is now a world revival of thought and action which is causing peoples everywhere to beatle themselves towards their security, and we hear the cry of Palestine for the Jews, Egypt for the Egyptians, Asia for the Asiatics, and the Negroes have rated the cry of Africa for the Africans, those at home and those abroad! The cry for liberty is a just and holy one. All men should be free to work out their own salvation; free to build up for themselves a culture and civilization of their own. Jewish culture is different from Irish culture, Asiatic culture is different from European culture, and thus the Negro wants attitude to develop his own culture. Why should the Negro be lost among the other races and nations of the world? Did not nature make him a son of the soil? Did the Creator-not fashion him out of the dust of the earth?—out of that rich soil to which he bears such a wonderful ressemblance. No, the Ethiopian cannot change his skin, and so we appeal to the white world to yield to us our God-given heritage, Africa."
"The Universal Negro Improvement Association represents the hopes and aspirations of the awakened Negro, who desires to preserve himself. Our desire is for a place in the world, not to disturb; the tranquility of other men, but to lay our burden down and rest our weary backs and rest by the banks of the Niger, and sing our songs and chant our hymns to the God of Ethiopia.
"The New Negro is determined to remedy this present situation that we find ourselves in, and it is for this purpose that the Universal Negro Im'-prevention Association has come upon the scene, to organize Negro. The
thoughtful and Industrialist" Negro wants to go back to Africa, because we realize it will be our only hope of permanent exintence. We want an atmosphere all our own, where we can again build upon our civilization."
MME, M. L. T. EBIMBER'S ADDRESS
Hon. Mme. M. L. T. B. Tibmber, Asst.
International Organizer; was the last
speaker. She said: "Before I speak
to you tonight on any particular
theme, I wish to call your attention
to a cable which we received from the
Hon. Marcus Garvey in answer to the
cable that we sent him last Sunday,
when we were celebrating him entry
into America on the 23rd day of March
in the year 1916. The message is as follows:
"Cable received. Thanks all of
you that have been carrying on
Thanks for expression of loyalty
and remembrances. Knox arrived.
Best wishes to all. Splondid growth
of organization. — Garvey." (Applause.)
Bringing Salvation
"And this brings me to my subject, Toussaint in no way cometh to bring us salvation." Today is the most significant in the minds of those who cherish the memory of the Torn. Marcus Garvey because it is called Garvey Day—the first Sunday of the month. But how much more significant is the day to us as we sit in Liberty Hall in crowds, and as we look out upon the streets of Harlem, in the street cars, in the automobiles, in the buses, subways, elevated trains, on the parks, avenues, street corners, everywhere in New York today and all over America and see men and women coming out of the churches with pieces of palm leaves in their hands; some have a palm cross mado and plumed to their coats; some will hang that cross behind their beds in keeping with an old superstition; others feel they will lay the piece of palm on the altar and burn a light, and some one will come down to bless them for having gone to church today, maybe the first time since 1822 was unburied in.
A Black Prophet
"When we look at the palms we look back to the time, nearly 2,000 years ago, when the Messiah came into the world and established Christianity. He was a great Prophet, and we see Him riding on an ass and the devout throng throttling palm before him. What does that signify? It signifies that they are doing honor to the Man for the good that He has done to mankind. And if I had the ability of a great artist, I could paint upon the vaults of 'the home-of-every Negro a great picture—the picture-of a man, all black, that did not come an a Christian, but a man who came to you and to me, and we would write under' that picture. 'Blessed is he who, cometh to bring us salvation.'"
Continuing; Mme. Ebimber said when the Hon. Marcus Garvoy came not palms, but thorns and thistles were strewn in his way, but he walked firmly upon them and they did not enter his feet. Words failed her adequately to express the grandeur of the noble work which he had done and was doing in the interest of his down-trodden race.
Nationhood Sparks Salvation
The salvation that the Honorable Marcus Darvey was bringing to the race was via the nationhood route. The salvation of the Negro race depended on racial solidarity, on a fully awakened racial consciousness, and she looked around that hall and saw the juveniles marching, holding their hands high and manfully, she realized all the more, the certainty of future salvation for the race, for what the present generation might be unable to accomplish, fifty years hence the children of today might consummate.
Mrs. Edmber pledged with a spirited appeal to her hearers, especially the young men and women to take

South Africa Adopts 1926 Imperial Report
CAPE TOWN, South Africa, March 26. The South African House of Assembly today unanimously adopted the report on the Imperial Conference resolutions of 1926, which was moved by Premier J. B. M. Hertzog more than two weeks ago. A feature of the debate was the Premier's declaration that South Africa had a right to be neutral if Great Britain were at war, and the repudiation of this attitude by General Jun Christian Smuts, former Premier, and also by Colonel F. H. P. Creswell, Minister of Defense, a Labor member of the Hertzog Government.
Premier Hertzog's assertion of the right of neutrality was based on what he termed the "dominions" new-founded independence" and the right of each dominion to be the sole judge of the extent of its co-operation within the empire.
The Premier asked the House to vote for the motion to adopt the report on the Imperial Conference, not on account of what it might mean to any particular person, but because of the unmistakable language in which it said what it meant and in "which it declared to us our freedom—our freedom and equality, our absolute equality in the freedom to exercise every function, every power, every privilege of national life, without owing any subordination to any authority outside of ourselves."
General Smuts, in opposing the Premier's neutrality, stand, declared that "the name King could not be both at war and at peace in the same empire." He strongly deprecated the position the Premier had taken on the question and said it was one that ought to be looked upon as purely academic.
Colonel Creswell could not convolve of South Africa or any other dominion wishing to remain neutral if Great Britain were at war. There had been previous consultations in the matter between the British Government and the Governments of the dominions.
The second North ever to receive flying training at Curtiss Field, L. I., and the first to fly there in ten years, according to M. M. Merrill, field manager, began the gylecoe work-your-way-through ten-hour course last Monday. He is Stanley M. Smith of Baltimore, who was referred to Merrill by Major Howard C. Davidson of Boiling Field, Washington, when he applied there for army training. Smith will work as a mechanic in the Curtiss hangars until he is familiar enough with planes and motors to be allowed flight training. The "ten-hour course" will require at least three months. Beside Coleman learned to fly at Curtiss Field a decade ago, Merrill said, but there have been no others of her race until the advent of Smith.
Federal Prison for Women Is Wearing Completion
ANDERSON, W. V., March 30.—The first Federal institution designed solely for women is taking form on the banks of the Greenbriar River here. Final touches will not be taken before July, but already many women prisoners are installed in their quarters and are helping with the work necessary to easy functioning of the institution. Until 600,000 club women all over the country, led by the General Federation of Women's Clubs, concentrated their efforts upon Congress for the passage of the bill making the appropriations, the Federal Government took care of women prisoners in overcrowded State prisons and jails.

World happenings from every point of the compass all demonstrated the fact that it was only by creating a government of their own, for their own, could Negroes hope to enjoy any decent measure of freedom and happiness, and now, was the time for every member of the Negro race to so shape his life that he would be in a position to give one hundred percent service to the cause of Africa.

In connection with the vile accusations and insinuations made by a certain section of the Negro-hating press of this country that Marcus Garvey instigated the killing of "Laura Koffey, African Princess," Hon. J. A. Craigen, a High Commissioner of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, who a few months ago was sent to Florida to have this unfortunate woman prosecuted for fraud, has sent the following letter to the Miami Daily News for publication:
Letter to Southern Paper
Editor, "Miami Daily News," Miami, Fla.
The alleged interview with the firm of Collins & Collins published in your issue of March 20, which apparently caused the Grand Jury to indict on the 21st of March, Claudio Green and J. B. Nemo for the murder of the self-styled Princess Laura Koffey was the most lying, malicious, pernicious and prejudiced article that could have been published against two innocent men.
has a brother in Cincinnati, Ohio.
This woman lived in Detroit from the year 1920 to 1924. She has always applied to be a preacher and was a member of the Garvey movement in Detroit. She miseriously disappeared from thin city and in February, 1926, a letter was received from her written in Sierre Leone, West Africa, advising the recipient not to answer for she won on her way home.
This writer next met her in the city of New Orleans, La, in October 1926.
Your interviewer also informed the public that Mareus Garvey, whose activities this so-called Princess was investigating, sent letters from Jamaica directing these men to kill Laura Koffey—needs to state, a monstrous fabrication.
Nowapapers, as I understand them, are medium through which the public is kept informed and they are supposed to give out to the public the truth concerning any happenings, but I presume that because this particular incident surrounds Negroes, it would be an impropriety for a white daily to find out the truth about it.
The writer of this letter in one who has been commissioned by the Universal Negro Improvement Association, yes, the Garvey movement—not a movement to rob Negroes, as you put it, but to organise them to save them from such barbaric vagavage as what took place in your city at the hands of officers of the law, when they murdered an innocent Negro bell-hop, and to redeem their motherland Africa, there to create a government for Negroes, of Negroes and by Negroes, so they can be protected everywhere.
I was in your State for approximately three months and in your city, Miami, five weeks ago, attempting with aid of the courts of your said State to put an end to Laura Koffey's neuronal balance. If Attorney Collis had taken my advice when I stood in his office about thirty minutes and pleaded with him to use his influence toward an adjustment of this matter, perhaps Laura Koffey would have been living today, but I guess he was more concerned with the fifties and hundreds of dollars the Koffey faction was paying him.
To give you a synopsis of the history of Laura Koffey, which is the truth beyond all doubt and which I shall ask you to publish as an act of honesty:

branches and spoke, tolling the many thousands that heard her that the Garvey movement was the best organization in the world. Through her, thousands joined in Mobile, Ala., Jacksonville, Tampa, West Palm Beach, St. Petersburg and Miami, Fla. Seeing that her influence was very strong, she engineered a scheme of her own and defrauded thousands of Negroes in your State. The scheme was this: She stated that Marcus Garvey had sent her to collect funds for an African sawmill and sugar mill project, and to make, her scheme more successful, she told her audience—all members of the Garvey movement—that the kings of Africa would, have ships sent to Miami and Jacksonville to take Negroes to Africa.
If you would investigate this matter you'll find Negroes in your city who actually disposed of their property and were waiting for the ships of the kings; the same thing applies to Mobile, Ala., and the cities I mentioned before, in your state.
Investigation Ordered by U. N. I. A. Naturally some believed her and others didn't, so the headquarters of the Garvey movement was notified and was being besieged with queries as to whether this woman was authorized by Marcus Garvey to collect any such fund. Hence my being sent to investigate.
Upon my arrival, and after investigation I found that this named Princess had fleeced Negroes out of thousands of dollars with the promise of ships, etc. She was then in the public press of Jacksonville exposed as to her lack of authority to collect any such fund. She was subsequently arrested in Jacksonville by five warrants, for fraud.
After traveling through the State I was able to convince the people that this woman was nothing but a false, hence factions arose, and from this fractional feud the killing you are attempting to connect Marcus Garvey with came about. It is rumored that Laura Koffey, an she was known, came to her

$635,000 Appropriated By Kentucky Legislature For Negro Institutions
FRANKFORT, Ky., March 31—The recent session of the Legislature established a record for this State by appropriating an aggregate of $35,000 for the support of Negro institutions. Kentucky Industrial College at Frankfort was given $322,000 to replace a building recently destroyed by fire. West-Kentucky Industrial College at Paducah received $200,000 for new buildings. The Red Cross Santarium for Negrova was awarded $10,000 to care for an overflow of patients, and $25,000 was appropriated to the Kentucky Home. Society for the care of colored dependent children. Provision was made in the budget also for the establishment, of an institution for fiddle-minded Negro children. Both houses voted unanimously for the appropriation to the two schools. The program had the hearty support also of Governor Sampson.

PARIS, March 26—Pifty thousand Europeans killed themselves last year, according to figures published in "Paris Midi." Hunger, poor living conditions, and love entanglements are given as the chief causes. Hungary and Czechoslovakia top the list each with 25 to each 100,000. Germany is next with 25. Austria fourth with 20 and France fifth with 17. In Spain only four out of every 100,000 ended their own lives.

HUSTLE WHILE YOU WAIT
PEOPLE who accomplish anything worth while in life are those who have a definite program as an objective to which they work with the consistency of the needle to the pole. Of course, they have troubles of their own, and are often thrown off the main line, but they fight down their troubles and make shift to get back on the main line; working always towards their objective. Such people place a proper valuation upon all of the opportunities and advantages that come their way, refusing to be confused or discouraged in reaching after the main objective, which is always success. Success is the thing. The Universal Negro Improvement Association stands for a definite program, to which we are all expected to contribute our personal share for its success. Let us recapitulate, as a matter of emphasis:
1. Keep the Parent Body in a healthy condition by paying your annual dues and local assessments.
2. Read The Negro World and pay for it, and encourage your neighbor to do so.
3. Labor for increase of membership, to the end that we may make the largest possible showing at the International Convention in Toronto, Canada, in August of next year.
4. Contribute liberally for the support of Universal Liberal University, on the James River, and see that it has all of the students it needs. Education is the key that will help most assuredly to unlock the problems which we are united as an association to help in the solution of.
5. And keep the building of an African State in Africa for Negroes in the eye of the mind, which is the light of the body. And hustle all the time while you wait.
WE NEED PLENTY OF INTELLIGENT LEADERSHIP
No movement that amounts to anything can get anywhere without intelligent leadership, with a sufficient amount of money available to properly finance the movement. We can't accomplish
anything without money, and we can't secure money and judiciously expend it unless we have reasonable intelligence in the leadership. Coupled with these, when there is an average intelligence in the membership, the success of the movement is quite assured. In his splendid oration at Liberty Hall, in New York City, Sunday night, March 25, Hon. S. A. Haynns, High Commissioner of Virginia, North and South Carolina, among other good things (published in The Negro World of March.31), said:
"We are now making an effort to lift the association to a higher intellectual standard, and this can only be done when there are efficient and intelligent men to interpret the objects of the movement.
"An intelligent presentation of our cause, intelligent prosecution 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 years 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 and representatives to direct our destiny from the Parent Body as well as that of our branches scattered throughout the world."
And in order to get the best results it is imperatively necessary that the membership everywhere seek to make the most of the opportunities in the places where they are or may be to make money and have it handy to promote the interests of the Association. The Jews do it, and have money for all their purposes because they do it. They strive after the Almighty Dollar in every place where it is found, and they do not hesitate to despoil the enemy in so doing, as they were advised in the flight from Egypt. Get the money and keep it for the rainy day, for the day of need, as intelligent leadership without money to finance its program is poor indeed.
Yes, we need intelligent leadership, and need plenty of money to back up such leadership, and we should not cease striving to secure what we need.
NEGRO BARRED OUT OF AUSTRALIA
HTHAS become the settled policy of the British speaking people to prevent the Negro from enjoying any of the citizenship rights where white men have control. This policy leaves the Negro and others of the dark races, at the mercy of their white rulers, who are not failing to take advantage of all that such control carries with it of social, civil and economic values. In the colonies and commonwealths where there are many Negroes the policy has become fixed and arbitrary not to allow them any voice in the administration of the government, and how they shall dispose of their time, when not employed at fixed stipends and hours, is in some administrations regulated. The policy introducing the Negro in British colonies and commonwealths to a condition of slavery. Negro labor is not allowed in the British Isles, those who were brought in during the World War to supply the demand being forced to leave the country after the war. The labor unions saw to that, as they see to it in the dependencies that Negro labor is not allowed to compete with

in the character of work or the rate of the wages. The German Scient
following calligram shows what is happening in Australia.
SYDNEY, Australia, March 29. The House of Representatives of New South Wales has ordered the deportation of an American Negro jazz band known as Sonny Clay's Plantation Orchestra. It is understood the Federal cabinet will bar Negro entertainers from Australia and the ban may extend to Negro boxes. William Hughes, former Premier, demands that the ban be extended to curtail the entry of Italians. "We believe in a British white Australia," he said. "Yet Italians are coming to this country at the rate of 300 monthly. To whom does this country belong? To us or Mussolini?"
Mr. Hughes enlarges on the policy by insisting upon "a British white Australia," necessarily to the exclusion not only of Italians, but other Europeans classed as belonging to the white races. If this new phase shall be incorporated in the policy of British colonies and commonwealths it will certainly create a grave situation, more serious, perhaps, than the American policy of excluding from the citizenship Mexicans, Chinese, Japansse and Asiatics generally. The immigration restrictions enforced by the United States are aimed further at Europeans by favoring the English speaking part of them. The African Negro is not barred out directly, but he is indirectly, as he must come in as a part of the British allotment, and it is seen to that he does not get much of a chance to get in it.
According to the Malthusian principle of population, that it is regulated by subsistence possible, the world has become too small for the number of mouths to be fed and backs to be clothed, and, therefore, as is usually the case, the savage principle of self-preservation is actively at work. It can't very well be claimed that the earth has failed to yield a sufficiency for all, but it can be said that the sources of production, distribution and price-fixing have created a world-expansive system of monopoly which produces an artificial deficiency, it having happened in New York during the past twelve months that whole carloads of perishable foodstuffs have been deliberately destroyed in order to maintain prices at the highest point. The British may bar the Negro out of England and Australia; but they can't well bar him out of Africa, because there are so many of them there, but they can reduce hint to a condition of slavery in all that the word implies, and they are striving to do that in British Africa, with intelligent natives fighting-back with all of the weapons at their command.
LAWLESS FLA. POLICE BEHIND PRISON BARS
THE old-saying that "the mills of the gods grind slow, but they grind exceedingly fine" gets a verification now and then, but not often enough it seems to us. There is so much wrong going on all of the time, without apparent rebuke or chastisement, that we sometimes think the gods may not always be blameless of responsibility for much of the suffering humanity is subjected to. But what may appear to be wrong, unjust, to us, may appear to be right and just to the gods.
Florida, especially in its wealthy East Coast, has been so recklessly lawless in dealing with the Negro in recent years that we have often asked ourselves, "Can any good come out of Florida?" Perhaps there is some good in every species of wickedness; and makes itself felt when it gets to it. Those who are aggrieved are more impatient and clamorous for redress of wrong and outrage than those charged with the correction of them. When the police become a part of the lawlessness it makes matters all the worse. We have heard some strange stories from the East Coast of Florida about the abuse of Negroes by white officers of the law, backed up by the mob, and we have been all the more surprised at this because the people who have made the East Coast the richest winter resort in the country are for the most part people from the Northern and Western States, who have been educated in the high principle of respect for law and legal process. Negro workers, who are employed largely in the palace hotels of the winter resorts of the coast, are not wanted by the labor organizations, in the skilled or muskilled trades, and they have done some high-handed lawlessness, including murder, to enforce their will on those they dislike.
Those who are familiar with the lawless conditions which obtain in Florida and who have about despaired that there would be any better, were much surprised and enheartened by news dispatches from Miami last week that the grand jury had indicted the chief of police and six of his aides and put them in the county stockade, charged with murder, while ringing in the cars of the entire force "was a grand jury vitriolic denunciation of brutal and astounding conduct of law enforcement throughout Miami." It is said that the police have been responsible for the murder of three Negroes and one white man, and that the department is in alliance with the forces of the underworld. The determination is now to clean up the whole situation, and they appear to be going about it in the right way. Of course, it is all surprising, but also very gratifying.
EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS
We are a race of scorpions, and each one should be willing to do his part, that we may tone up our race. Let no excuse come up that will prevent us from imbibing our education, and after we obtain it, cash it for everything it's worth. Education fits one to successfully do things, a fact that must not be forgotten.—Oklahoma Eagle.
It is in the blowhard who usually gets the harpoon. The whole would be all right if it didn't come up to spout.—California Voice.
This is the time for our people, throughout Ohio and country, over, to show some common sense, racial loyalty and prime interest in their own people as well as interest in the candidacy for the Presidency of some member of the other group or class.—Cleveland Gazette.
The cultural advance of the Negroes has diminished the interest of the whites in helping them. The Negro, with his new prosperity, his new culture, his new psychology, must help himself. He must rely more largely upon his own resources and his own capabilities—Star of Zion.
If will do Negro voters no good to permit their ranks to be broken over the coming Presidential primary. After all, the selection of this or that man as the nominee of the Republican party will mean very little to the majority of us. It behooves us to keep our ranks closed as a racial group, however much our political affiliations may differ—Cleveland Call-Post.
Business, as we know, is one of the strongest factors in human affairs for bringing together and holding together men for their mutual benefit. Getting a picture from downtown, where the big businesses are carried on, we see men of many different shades of beliefs, religious social standing and
politics sitting; in counsel together looking after their mutual interests. It is this kind of spirit that has made the commercial and business establishments possible. St. Louis Argus.
These are busy days and the hour has arrived to get in line for business along all the vantage lines of effort. Men without standing and possessing no visible means of support will be considered your representatives only so long as you will permit this condition to exist. To put a stop to this thing it is imperative, you must organize—California Eagle.
The task before us is not to take things out of politics, not to jungle with the system here and there in the wild-belief that by changing methods we are going to eradicate an inherent moral fault, but to bring the right forces to bear in politics so that this all important system of expressing the public will shall indeed translate the good intentions of the people into realities—Houston Sentinel.
Men who have souls which yearn for the same life, liberty, justice as all free people, under a supposedly free government, are not always brave men, because they ask for nothing less than this; neither are they brave because their demands are unselfish, seeking no ease, place or positions for themselves, but they are of such a class as should receive a fair and impartial consideration even from those who might have no particular care for them.—Louisville Leader.
Black men are rapidly learning the power of the ballot. It might be said that they approve a vote even when white brethren. The time is rapidly passing where are satisfied with empty promises. White politicians who would control the black vote must play ball—Black and White Chronicle.
BERL1N, March $1. Great impending climatic change, geoclimatics (the whole world) are fasthewed by Wilhelm Böchle German scientist and philosopher. In an address at Halle he prophesied tremendous geological subversions, of which recent strange weather vagaries, great storms, floods, earthquake and volcanic action were the preludes.
Booleish does not share the belief held by many that another ice age is abroaching. He holds, to the contrary, that the earth is becoming warmer, that the present time is really the end of the dilluvial ice age and that mankind may look forward to a "Paradisiac climate."
New continents and mountain tains may be expected to arise out of the Pacific, Boehlschraege says. He thinks that these changes may come with relative sadness and that we are now on the eve of great terrestrial convulsions. How mankind will survive them he did not attempt to forecast. He said that he did not believe in the theory that all living things will be swept away, but rather that a new order of things would inaugurate a period of immediate and thrilling progress by the human race.

Your Teeth and Your Health
Good health, requires the proper functioning of all parts of the body,
and our teeth should be kept in good condition so the food may be chewed properly.
The care of the teeth should be just as important - a part of, our daily hygiene as combing the hair and cleaning the fingernails. The teeth should be brushed at least twice a day - better still, after every meal. They should be brushed carefully, the upper ones with a downward, rotary motion; and the lower ones with an upward, rotary motion. Be sure to brush the backs of the teeth as well as the front. It is a good thing to massage the gums frequently, too.
Go to your dentist twice a year. Your teeth should be cleaned every six months by a dentist who will have the tartar removed from their surfaces. Any necessary dental work should be done. If you visit the dentist regularly at frequent intervals and have the cavities filled while they are still small, the dental work will hurt less and cost less than if you let it go for longer periods.
If there is need for orthodontic work, have it dope 'A malocclusion—improper coming together of the jaws—hinders chewing and may spoil the appearance of the face.
Healthy, well-cared-for teeth are not

to them is essential.
No Need to Live Here And Be Uneducated
One sometimes wonders if these living in New York city appreciate all the advantages that, living here offers to them. Certainly there in little excuse or any one to be uneducated, for one may obtain an education equal to that offered by the fiscal university at no cost or practically none.

Pahama Assembly Movies
BALBO, C. Z., March 29. The National Assembly of the Republic of Panama has passed on third reading a bill revoking the immigration law of 1926 to permit the unrestricted entry of Japanese and East Indian. A quote of ten yearly was established for other nationalities barred in 1926. The immigration prohibited in the 1926 law included that of Japanese, Chinese, East Indians and Negroes whose native language was not Spanish. The bill was introduced for the administration by Foreign Secretary, sorcio Anaro and required the President's signature to become a law. Free French was attacked officially and East Indians was attacked officially and Panama American today, which now asks the President to yeto the bill on the ground that the East Indians are parasites who contribute nothing to Panama and that the Japanese are dangerous to the Panama Canal and obnoxious to American residents there.
Homely Philosophy
A SEVENTH DAY
EACH life needs a seventh day—call it Sunday—a day of spet.
On this day the human machinery needs pause and root; needs that the soul should be free to nurture its wings and ear.
Without the oasis of a seventh day life learn much of its bonyny and charm. Small we not hold and keep inviolate the cathedral hours of the seventh day?
"In the Days of Yth Youth." Under this title the New York Times said, "it is inconceivable that the new generation of Americans will not grow up with international mindedness—at any rate, with some degree of intelligent comprehension of the other nations of the world." It went on to depict how aviation, radio, the movies, and the telephones "yield contacts never dreamed of by races who once joked upon all strangers as hermitans."
The newspaper, more than any other agency, is foremost in internationalizing the mind-of the new generation. In an age as this it is almost suicide for any individual or race to depend upon a single frack mind. The Negro of all others must broaden his view and study the trend of human activities, of racial prejudice, if he is to successfully escape that extermination which is being scientifically arranged for him.
It is this "international mindedness" that is responsible for the China debacle and the Nicaraguan muddle. It brought the Panama Canal into being and is about to build another watery monument to itself across the stricken fatherdeland of the gallant Sandino. Let black men realize that the red Indians won their right-to end their days on the white men's reservations when they failed to develop a racial consciousness, an international mind, such as that which brought Columbus, William Penn and Lafayette to the very country wherein Indian liberty was unfettered before the white men came. Let black men realize that until they can see through the white man's deception, until they discard the domestic for the universal mind, they too, are headed not only for the white man's reservations, but for oblivion.
The Indian dilemma, the Egyptian problems, the Arabian tangle—there are not alone the outgrowth of a new racial consciousness, there is something more pertinent beneath the surface.
While firm in fixed policies of colonial administration, France has always displayed a willingness to appreciate the aspirations of her millions of black subjects, and so we can quite readily understand her liberality in making concessions to her colonies whose loyalty to the tricolor is no ordinary disdain in imperial history. But with the empire on which the sun never sets the question enters a more serious phase. Great Britain has always answered the demands of her black millions for larger opportunities under the flag with a dramatic display of power, quick and decisive. Hence, as we observe the concessions she has willingly made of hate to appease the rising consciousness of her subjects beyond the beas, we must search further for an answer that could best harmonize with the softening of the lion's wrath.
A careful investigation would show that even before the Kaiser's sword fanned humanity into a whirlpool of malice, the diplomatic machinery of Great Britain was breaking under the rash of decades. Today, the genius of statecraft so rigorously preserved by Disciple, Gladstone and the Earl of Chatham is yielding under the strain. World politics has undergone such a decisive change and imperialism has exacted so much since the days of the older statement that this generation of empire builders and defenders has inherited more than they can successfully cope with. It is evident that the burden of empire, so severely and meritoriously borne in aged past, is beginning to tax the vitality of the British Crown. Taxation, unemployment, religious disputes, social discords, a notable change in political temperament making itself manifest in the "British Commonwealth of Nations" and an "Irish Free State"—these are internal evidences of fatal collapse in governmental stability. Externally, racial consciousness under the flag hung, growing each day in dimensions, is the storm which stalks like a ghost. Slowly but surely the might of Aldon marches to the grave.
Alfred Aloysius Smith, alias "Truder Horn," speaking in Town Hall, New York, a week ago on his early life as a trader in Equatorial Africa, said: "Central Africa is the vely center of medical knowledge. The native witch doctors can cure people where any other doctor would fail. If it weren't for those witch doctors I wouldn't be speaking to you now with two legs instead of a wooden one."
Captain Charles Woodyatt, formerly of the British army, addressing the Adventurers' Club in Chicago a few days after, declared that "wherever the white man has appeared, he has pushed the natives into the hinterland or also exterminated them, with one exception. That exception is Sierra Leone, in West Africa. The black natives of that country will defy all Caucasian efforts to push them back into the jungle section of their country. These blacks," he reminded, "will always be primitive. And yet they in ented the telegrams from them, the secret of which never yet been discovered."
More science and mystery are locked up in the fertile brain of the African than the Caucasian canceled. When unloaded, the entire fabric of civilization may be torn nauder.
Whenever business takes me to New York I usually pay some attention to the black slaves of white civilization. They are to be found on the avenues, regulated in all the paraphernalia of a mountbank, aping with all the sophistication of an accomplished artist the mannerisms of their white masters. The Savoy Dance Hall, Lafayette and Lincoln Theatres, Simona's, Paradise and Banghoan, an a dozen Chinese restaurants and Southern coffee, Tabi's Restaurant and several night clubs and exclusive tea rooms—these are the favorite haunts of this society of apes. One year they pour into the pockets of the Jew, the Chinaman, the Greek and the Italian enough money to build three Lovishans, put up several more Pore college and Walker institutions. Their annual rent bill can purchase a hundred seats on the New York Stock Exchange and build a dozen industries in as many cities. To the policy barons they contribute annually enough dollars to operate two steamships.
But there's another type of ape in Harlem—and outside—the religious slaves. When I graze upon the solid work of the $1,000,000 St. Mark's office on St. Nicholas Amenio and the $500,000 Abyssinian Baptist Church on West 13th Street, my mind wanders back to those barbarian days when Egyptian slaves, greantry under the hault of the slaves driver—the burning dumbs to their agility—milled stones upon stone and built a pyramid here and a pyramid there to appease the fantastics of a Pharaoh. Are these chateens, then, the handwork of slaves? What distinguishes St. Mark's from the Pyramid of Gizeh, and Abyssina Baptist from the Sphinx? And the pastors, are they modern Pharaohs?
Amid this luxurious setting of cozy churches, elaborate ballrooms, exquisite apartments, oriental tea rooms, tom-tom theatres, mattei cabarets and night clubs, there is disease, poverty, untold suffering and privations which make the heart breads, desiccate to anyone brave enough to face it. Harlem's black mass of humanity is as pathetic as it is degenerate. Not "Nigger Heaven," but race suicide, that's. Harlem.
In his annual message to the Legislature, his Excellency Sir John Burdon, Governor of the Colony of British Honduras, Central America, paid the following glowing tribute to the Black Cross nurses of the Bellezio division of the establishment and the very success of maternity ward at the hospital is an important factor in the preservation of our potential population. To this must be added the teaching of maternity and general nursing to the public-spirited Black Cross nurses, for whose work I have sincere admiration.

Race Relations in 1927
ATLANTA, GA., April 2. The Commission on Interracial Co-operation, with headquarters at 409 Palmer Building, this city, has just issued for general distribution a sixteen page pamphlet entitled "Race Relations in 1927" which is receiving wide attention. The pamphlet undertakes to survey briefly but rather comprehensively the most important recent trends in race relations. Some of the subjects treated are lynching and mob violence, education and youth economic opportunity, interest, interest in the colleges and chapels, research projects, Negro gangage and interracial co-operation. *Sammy copier* pamphlet will be supplied without charge to anyone applying, according to a statement from the office of the commission.
Fiji Islands, also endorsed the activities of the Black Cross nurses during his administration. Facilities to become proficient in their profession are placed at their disposal by the principal medical officer of the colony, who heads the public hospital where they receive their training. This officer signs all certificates of merit, while the nurse attends to them to the nurses at graduation, presents them to the nurses on an annual Baby Health Exhibition, which the Governor and the principal medical officer attend in person. Valuable prizes are donated and the affair is always an attractive one in the life of the community.
Rains Burst African Dams
Cape Town, South Africa, March 30. Alarm was felt in Cape Province today, as steady rainfall assumed torrential proportions and floods developed. Dams burst, railroad lines were washed out and towns isolated. Many of the afflicted areas had been suffering from drought for five years. The irrigation dam near Pearl Albert, which was built at a cost of $250,000 and was dry for five years, was reported to have been destroyed. The burning of a dam was awakened by the railroad tracks over which the Martir of Athena, the Governor General, was traveling in a special train to the native territories. It was paid to new king William VIII. Railway ammunition were washed away by other places and roads.

AUSTRALIA MOVES TO BAR NEGROES FROM CONTINENT
American Negro Jazz Band De- Ported — "White Australia" Cry Raised — Italian Immigrants Also Not Wanted—Ex- Premier Speaks His Mind SIDNEY, Australia, March 29. — "White Australia!" was the rallying cry today behind a widespread movement, fostered by William Hughes, former Premier, to bar Negroes and Italians from the Commonwealth and to stem the rising tide of immigration to this continent.
The exclusion movement took concrete form when the House of Representatives of New South Wales ordered the deportation of an American Negro jazz, band known as "Sonny Clay Plantation Orchestra." The action was taken after the Melbourne police had raided fats occupied by the American Negroes and had charged them with disorderly conduct. Announcement of the deportation order by the New South Wales Minister of Home Territories, was greeted with cheers in the Provincial Legislature. The Negroes were ordered placed aboard the liner Sieren, which sails for San Francisco Saturday. The deportation move left an issue before the authorities, who are now considering barring Nigro artists and boxers from Australia. Immigration policies were attacked by Hughes with sharp, words in demanding "British white Australia."
"Ittalians are coming into this country at the rate of 300 monthly," he said. "To whom does this country belong? To us or to Mussolini? I say nothing against any nation, but this bit of earth belongs to us. It is for us to say how many shall come in. Apparently that Mussolini has the word "we must allow all grand-mothers, grandmothers and other relatives down to the thirty-third cousins of Italyans here to enter. "We colonized this country and it is for us to develop it along our own lines, without dictation from anybody oversean." Referring to the Melbourne incident, Hughes said: "Our own musicians, the Commonwealth, Band, were丢了 in the United States." Now the land of liberty sends us, these Negroes to entertain us. Are we going to take all these things lying down?
Man Out of Job Too Lazy
To Go After His Dole
STRATFORD, Eng, March 31 — The due of twenty-five shillings, about $55, which the British Government weekly distinguishes to each unemployed person, separately holds an appeal for one woman, man here.
"The man's mother recently complained that, although her son had been living with her for several years, he failed to give her any money. She told the judge that her son was "too lazy to get up and go for the due."
Some time ago it was stated by an important copper producer that with the exception of the Noranda mine not one important copper property, has been brought into production in the last ten years. The statement made by an undoubted authority on the subject is undisputed. On the other hand it well known in the copper world that the time will surely come when the world's production of copper will be increased on a large scale through African output. The American copper interests have been worrying for the last ten years about the African copper "menace," While that menace is still pretty far in the future, it is believed by mining engineers who are familiar with the situation in the Dark Continent that it will be a reality ten years hence. While they are loath to make specific estimates on the probable production of copper by African properties after the lapse of another decade, the fact that the output will be "enormous" and that the only salvation of the industry will be a greatly increased consumption of copper.
Current indications are that within the next five years African copper mines' will be producing at the rate of 500,000,000 pounds of copper a year. Potential production: if all the known deposits should be worked, is estimated to be about 100 million pounds would be more than three times the present output of the world.
Present Output Small
At present the production of copper in Africa is no small as to be hardly a factor in the market. All told, last year hardly exceeded 110,000 tons, compared with a world production of 1,658,346 tons. There are only two producing properties in Africa today. One is the famous Katuanga mines, located in the Belgian Congo. The other—in Rhodesia, owned by British capitalists.
While the actual production of copper in Africa is only a proverbial "drop in the bucket" compared with world output, the known copper deposits are so large as almost to stagger the imagination. There are several distinct landmasses in Central Africa and Rhod西亚 districts of Central Africa. The largest of the Central African copper properties comprises an area larger than that of the State of New York. It covers more than 65,200 square miles. The property is owned by the State of New York, Gission, Limited. c. British concern. The copper mineralization of the concession is widespread.
On a recent visit to this country Raymond Brooks, an American engineer who is manager of the concession, said that last year the company had made 41 distinct discoveries that warranted serious investigation, although only a small portion of the area had been covered. The company has no other region of comparable size where copper occurs so generally and so consistently. Deposits in that area will surprise in tomatoe of any individual, mines thus far opened in the Conro region. Moreover, the ores have a sulphide

character which gives them greater amenity to treatment than other areas
Four Developments
Four main developments are under way in the Rhodesian Congo border concession. Those are located at N'Changa, Chifupea, Mimbula and Lussembwe, respectively. The work at N'Changa is the most advanced. The minimum estimate of the proven ore makes the amount 40,000,000 tons. The N'Changa property covers an area of about four and one-half square miles. There are two main showings of ore located at N'Changa. The Dapupe hole provides an estimated volume of 100,000,000 to 150,000,000 tons of 4 per cent. copper ore. It has been drilled down only 1,000 feet. Even richer ore is believed to underly that deposit. Up to 5 per cent. copper ore is found on the property.

In The Workers' Here
Since the political emancipation of the Cape native in 1853 the relationship between black and white in South Africa has been regulated by an opportunist policy. The South African Act of 1905 left the conditions in each province unchanged; the Cape native retains his right to be registered as a voter if he owes £75 value in property or carms £50 a year and can write his name; in Natal a native achieving a high standard of culture may apply for citizenship rarely given to more than six-out of a population of 900,000; in the Free State and the Transvaal the native has no vote at all. The moderating influence of the Colonial Office disappeared with the grant of self-government; owing to the sensitivity of South African feeling, over Dominion Status all attempts at inference are deprecated. As problems have arose they have been settled without much regard for widur issues. The Land Act of 1813 restricted native powers of purchase in European areas. The Native Affairs Act of 1802, though improving native status in some small points, was deeply opposed by most thinking natives.
White opinion is largely divided between a small handful of men really concerned with native interests; the South African party, dominated by the industrialist of the Rand, who favor the employment of native men on skilled work, because they are cheap the Nationalist party, largely controlled by agricultural interests, desiring cheap and coolie black labor, and by the influence of the Reich Reformed Party, which has equality of black and white as part of its doctrine, and the White Labor party, which concentrates upon the preservation of a high standard of life for white workers, and thus fears undercutting by cheap black labor. The present Pact Government is composed by the union of Nationalists and White Labor, united by their antagonism to the industrialists and by their fear of black competition. Once in power, General Hertzog made up his mind to carry through the first deliberate attempt at a reasoned native policy for South Africa. On May 11, 1928, speaking on the side Bar Bill in Parliament on the Cape Colony, he coloured that "that ego has come when South Africa is no longer to pursue a policy of carrying on from hand to mouth. We have to keep our eyes on the future, and we must lay it down where we stand and we where we are going."
directed towards the preservation of "the White South Africa." Ideally stated, its principles are those which would initiate "paralegal Institutions, leaving the European master in his own household," combined with, modified territorial, segregation. Actually, it has been framed without regard to black opinion, black interests, or black liberties. The Color Bar Bill of 1928 formed the first instalment of the policy. The second stage came with the proposal of four Native Bills—the Native Council Bill, the Colored Persons Rights Bill, the Representation of Natives in Parliament Bill, and the Natives Land Bill. These propose first a uniform constitution for palliative compensation for palliative throughout the four provinces. The present Anahual Native Conference will be transformed into a Union Native Council, mainly elected by the Native population, as well as advisory power. The legislative, Assembly the Cape natives will lose their present franchise. In exchange they will be classified together under a communal franchise scheme and be permitted to return two members; the Transvaal and Natal will likewise have two members each, the Free State one. These members must be European. They may sit and speak and vote upon minor questions; they may not vote upon questions affecting street, new upon "questions of confidence," unconnected with the native interest. On the other hand, the cultural people of mixed blood are to be gradually assimilated with the white population. He also had small
The California property has an extensive deposit of rich lime. Operations down to a 160-foot level have developed 155,800,000 tons of 7.8 per cent. average copper content, but percentage of copper range as high as 18 per cent. in spots. A third development center at Mimbus, ten miles south of N'Changa, indicates the presence of an aluminium plant at N'Changa. Systematic drilling over an acre one and a half by two miles has revealed three successive beds of copper ore of 2.3 per cent, 2.4 per cent, and 5.3 per cent. copper. The last named is all sulphide, while the other beds are 1.4 per cent, and 98 per cent. sulphide, respectively. At Lunsenfwa east of N'Changa, numerous lenses of primary sulphide copper ore have been found in granite. Several other large deposits are being opened on the concave. Anglo-American, Company, a Morgan company, is interested in the Rhodesian Congo Border Concession, Ltd. through 30 per cent participation.
Another important African copper company is the Roan Antelope Company, in which the American Metal Company owns a large interest. That company will come into production in a short while and in a few years is expected to be producing at the rate of 100,000,000 tons a year.
cut them, out from industry. They may keep their political power. With these constitutional measures goes the Land Bill, which initiates a system of territorial and economic segregation to be applied gradually.
Last session, a committee of nineteen members of all three parties discussed the four bills without concluding their inquiries. They recommended that at the next session, which is now sitting, a Select Committee might be appointed to continue the inquiries. Meanwhile the evidence, heard before the first Committee has been published in a closely printed volume of some magazines. It is evident that the whole built environment is opposed to the policy. Territorial segregation is suspect, because in the past almost every change in the land holding has been a change for the worse. The white landlords in possession refuse, to part with land of any value unless they are forced to do so, and the natives think that Hortzog is unlikely to alienate his farmer friends by insisting upon adequate reserves for the natives.
The Native Administration Act which came into force last. September must be interpreted 1: the light of these events. It gives the Governor-General most arbitrary powers over native ownership of land. He may (Clause 7) revoke any land grant; he may move tribes from one place to another; he may prohibit meetings or destroy 'anything' which appears likely, to lead to hostility between black and white; some of the clauses are taken straight from D.O.R.A. The intention of the Act is twofold: It responds o an appeal for active measures against the vigorous native trade union movement which has arisen within the last ten years, and it gives the native affairs department power to check any expression of opinion criticising the new native policy as it arrives.
The importance of these Bills to us in England is twofold; we cannot entirely resign our moral responsibility for the natives in this part of the British Commonwealth of Nations, and we still retain responsibility for the natives in land under the Colonial Office. There is a very real danger least the South African native policy, born of prejudice, race interest and opportunism, may become 'the model for the rest of the world to follow.
In the year of 1823 I was attached by Miquahler and Sub-Acute Rheumatism. I suffered no only thorns who are thus afflicted to now for over three years.

I have given it to a number who were torribly afflicted, even bedridden, some of them seventy to slightly years old, and the results were the same as in my own case.

Health of Negroes
Improving in Nation;
Agencies in Harlem
Statistics show that the general
health of the Negro in the United
States has been steadily improving
during the past few years.
However, the fight against disease and the campaign for better health must still be waged. Despite the gains of the last twenty years, the death rate and sickness rate among Negroes still exceeds the general rates for almost all conditions.
Here in Harlem the health conditions are similar to those existing in any part of New York City. There are the same health needs to be met and the same community health problems which must be faced and solved. If possible. Among them are the problems of tuberculosis and heart disease, the need for nutrition work among the need for children the question of how to help prevent diseases. Instruction in order that they may take care of the health of their families in the most efficient and nautilogery way possible, the necessity for preventing or checking illnesses—altogether all the health problems of a metropolitan community.
There are a number of social-welfare and health agencies in Harlem, which exist for the sole purpose of handling the problems and sparing residents of the community who want help with health matters. Among them are: The Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee, with its dental

Sunday, March 26, was celebrated by the children of the Ingenio Rico Cante Division as "Children's Day." With the exception of the "childrish" and members of the choir, all who took part in the grand and inspiring program presented by Mr. Julius Picart were children. They showed no signs of timidity. It was more encouraging to the parens and more so to Mr. J. Picart, purdy school teacher, who has gone through a lot of trouble to prepare the children for such a fitting occasion. Master A. Thompson, in his opening address, with his usual bold, spirit, drove home the truth of the Preamble. Miss Nella Burton kept the audience in dead silence as she rose in her usual modest manner to recite "Make Mighty Meh of theophilus. I must last." She continued, "I will be called to repeat his recitation, 'There's a Good Time Coming.' The selection by the choir is a melodious strain to the evening's program.
The great benefits which everyone derived from this meeting are due to the inspiring teachings of our Leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and for such a successful outcome all credit is due to the efforts of the children of the little children and the choir and is a zeolous worker of this Division and in his behalf of his race.
The program was as follows: Opening remarks by chairman:

It is with sad regret that we announce the death of Afr. Emmanuel Dove. The sad event took place at his home on Saturday, March 24, after a short period of sliness. Mr. Dove was given the honor of being done was doing good work, when he became inactive until last January, when the warm spirit of Garveyism caught hold of him and he again enrolled, but that grim monster Death claimed him. The funeral was well attended by Legions, Motor Corps, Nurces, members and friends.
To the relatives of the deceased this Division tenders its sincere condolence.

On Sunday, March 11, the Boston Division of the U. N. I. A., again met at Butler's Hall, 1053. Tremont Street, and offered a very fine program. After the opening of the mooting the preamble to the constitution was read by Mr. Sidney Blackman, the chaplain. He suggested that the membership seated in the room be allowed the preamble as often as possible, as it contains much food for thought.
Mr. Jordan P. Williams, attorney-at-law, who was at one time a president of this division, spoke for a few minutes. He told the general membership not to think of quitting. Not to become discouraged, for sometimes when we think of quitting success is just around the corner. To drive home this idea forcibly the speaker gave a practical illustration of a recent happening to one of his clients. He was asked to follow in the wake of an organization possessed of such fine basic qualities and principles as the U. N. I. A.

En un discurso ante una sociedad de hebreos en la cludad de Campan, el senador E. I. Edwarda por el estado de Nueva Jersey, manifesto que los recientes movimientos sociológicos y políticos han demostrado claramente que el judío, así como también otras razas y sextas religiosas, han sido el blanco de una intolerancia inexcusable. El senador lamentandose de tales actuaciones, opinó que dicho prejuicio, dimanaba de la propaganda y viciosa de los tal llamados un ciento por ciento americanos.
Consideramos siempre beneficio el tiempo que invertimos informando a nuestro pueblo, acerca de los planes del programa de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, institución que por sentimiento común está destinada a mejorar en este mundo que habitamos, la actual situación lastimosa de nuestra raza.
Durante los últimos meses, anadió, hemos observado una demostración cruel e inhumana de prejuicio racial, en la misma camara del senado nacional. Cargos infundados fueron presentados en contra de una sexta zeglenia, que ha cooperado en gran parte a la fundación y perpetuación de los ideales democráticos en la historia de nuestra civilización.
El lema de dicho programa.se basa en la emancipación absoluta de nuestro pueblo y la constitución de un país libre; un país muy ambicionado por los poderes predominantes. Con tal motivo ellos invierten millares de pesos escribiendo extensos, artículos para tener mejor entendimiento e interpretar el verdadero propósito de este movimiento. Pero en la persecusión de estos conocimientos esparcen una propaganda corrupta, la cual tiende a desequilibrar la mente de aquellos que, con la buena intención, patrocinan tan sano objetivo.
En conclusion el senador dijo que hacía esa manifestaciones sin temor a critica alguna, y que cualquiera que fuera la opinión de los "ciento por ciento", no debiera existir sitio alguno en las instituciones o en la vida de la nación, para el prejudice en.contra.del judio o de cualquier otra raza.
Los directores de este movimiento, los pilotos de nuestra causa estan compenetrados de que todo aquello que nos afronta en materia de oposición, es el curso de cualquier causa progresista. Ningún general podría conducir su ejército por el camino del éxito, sin antes, asaltar las trincheras de oposición; por consiguiente, el maquiavelismo enemigo en nada nos sorprende.
Abogando por la aspiración
de un-pueblo
El representante Gilbert, democrata, de Kentucky, acusó hoy en la Camara de Diputados a los/representantes republicanos de cobardes, al presentar una petición para que se concediese la libertad a las ilas Filipinas, diciendo que los republicanos habian dejado de cumplir sus promesas.
Los que patrocinamos y formamos parte constituyente de esta organización, debemos llegar a la conclusión de que la lucha por la existencia y el enaltecimiento de un raza, es incuestionablemente uno de los esfuerzos mas subremos en el presente siglo.
Los millionarios que soportan el partido republicano insisten en que la soberania de los Estados Unidos continue en las islas Filipinas con objeto de que puedan seguir explotandolas a su agrado, dijo el-representante por Kentucky, insistiendo en que se-adoptase una resolución que exigiese la completa retirada de dominio de los Estados Unidos de las islas dentro de un plazo de cinco años.
Tal estado de cosas es la causa de la lucha tenaz del irlandes por su propia conservación y la seguridad de su status; es la causa por la cual el judio al amparo del movimiento zionista, persigue a toda costa la restauración de lo que legitimamente le pertenece.
Debemos realizar que la gran oposición que como pueblo afrontamos, no se ejercita solamente en una sección sino universalmente; la afrontamos en nuestro trabajo, la afrontamos en los medios de comunicación; la afrontamos a cada paso de nuestra existencia; oposición siniestra en contra de los pueblos y de las razas que no son lo suficientemente fuertes para resistir el ataque, no cediendo un solo paso de su territorio.
El representante Gilbert declaró que el presidente Coolidge habia tomado la posición de que la substracção de los beneficios de un comercio libre por medio de la independência seria desastrosa para el archipelago, mientras que al representante-Timberlake, republicano, de Colorado, habia dicho recientemente que era necessario que el privilegio de entrada libre de que gozaba el azul filipino fuese anulado.
El esfuerzo de esta institución es simple y exclusivamente por el resurgimiento de la raza a la cual pertenecemos. Su lucha defiere de la de otros movimientos de la raza porque perseguimos yjida nacional, perseguimos la conservación nacional de nuestra propia existencia, en el convencimiento de que esta será la unica solución para el problema ante nuestra vista. Toda vez que la raza negra como cualquier otra raza, constituya la minoria en comunidad alguna, inhabilitada para mantener su propio terreno, predominarán los actos de injusticia y de opresión.
El representante Gilbert afirmó que las islas Filipinas eran "una debilidad nacional acentuada para en caso de guerra", declarando que presentarian el primer objetivo para cualquier nación que entrase en guerra contra los Estados Unidos. En su discuccion declaró que los hombres de estado filipinos son habilies y concienzudos y que el pueblo
La perpetración de estos actos inhumanos incita esta organización a esforzarse para resolver el árduo problema, no por medio de un reajuste doméstico entre razas, ello es impossible. Cuando el fuerte ambicena aquello que el débil anhela, un arreglo es imposible entre los dos individuos. Siempre que tales diferencias existan en países habitados por blancos y negros, se ejercitará la descriminación, se llevarán a cabo linchamientos y no habrá, por consiguente, reajuste social, reajuste industrial 6 económico ni reajuste político.
En el transcurso de cien, doscientos, quinietos 6 mil años, no existirá diferencia alguna en nuestra condición como raza, a menos que el negro no se dé cuenta exacta de la verdad escueta y se arraigue a los principios de adelanto de esta organización. Queda pues a esta raza nuestra, que apura la copa del acibar universalmente, el unir sus es fuerzos en un solo haz y constituir su protección—un gobierno propio, y ningun sitio mas apropiado para ello que el continente de la luz, Africa, cuna de nuestros antepasados.
Una y otra vez hemos de repetir que nuestro movimiento ha de continuar inalterablemente por valles collados y montañas, la proclamación de su doctrina sacrosanta, para dar a entender al mundo que Etiopia debe y tiene que ser redimida.
Anhelamos el que nuestro elemento, por el benefico que haya de reportarle en el futuro, estudie detenidamente y patrocine el gran propósito de este movimiento de adelanto, unico refugio de salvación para esta por tanto tiempo maltratada raza nuestra. Debilitemos nuestras energias, cometamos faltas y consignaremos nuestras generaciones venideras al mayor grado de miserias y de injusticias.
en general mira, sua idiores con respeto y con humor.
Durante su distracción el odor de declarar que un funcionario de la armada de los Estados Unidos habia rechidado una vez el permiso necesario para que se dije la lectura a la declazación de independencia en Manila el 4 de julio, y esta referencia del representante Gilbert dio jugar a que el representante McClintic, democrata de Oklahoma, dije que ciertos funcionarios de la armada de los Estados Unidos, acandidados en agua extranjeras, estaban intentando usurpar los-poderes del departamento de Estado.
Prosperidad en el futuro
La crecencia de que Hispano America confronta uma era de desarrollo que traerá como consecuencia en la proxima decada mayor progreso que el realizado en toda la centuria transcurrida, fue exteriorizada por el presidente Cutter de la United Fruit Co., en discuro pronunciado ante el Bond Club.
Los medios modernos de comunicación dijo han puesto, el entero continente a nuestra puerta, pero si se aprovecha esta oportunidad resultados beneficiosos tanto para los países del sur, es tiempo de terminar toda conversación sobre revoluciones y política y consagratros a las cuestiones económicas enveltes
Origen del café
El cafe es originario del Oriente; si nombre se deriva de la ciudad de Kaffa. Fué en Persia donde primeramente se generalizó el cafe, como bebida hecha con la infusión del grano tostado y molido. A fines del siglo XVI empezo a generalizar el uso del cafe en Europa; en el siglo XVII se estableció definitivamente su uso casi en toda Europa.
Parece que die un pie, criado en el Jardín de Plantas de Paris, proceden todos los cafetos que se cultiven actualmente en América. She dice que en 1723, D Deieux, gentil hombre normando, llevo a la lais de Martinica un-pie de cafeto. La travesia desde Francia-hasta la Martinica fue larga y penosa; el agua hacía falta a bordo no se distribuía sino por pequeñas raciones. De-Clieux, que comprendida la importancia de propagar este-fruto, en las colonias de América, dividió con el precioso arbusto la racion de agua que se le daba. Cuando llegó a Martinica, redobló Deieux sus cuidados con el cafeto, y pocos años después se extendía en toda la lais el cultivo del café. Después se propago el café en las islas de Santo Domingo y Guadalupe, luego en Puerto Rico y Cuba, y finalmente pasó al continente.

from the system of forced labor and the practice of turning the mistress, out of their land to impel them to work in white plantations or mills, are all indications of the European concession as to their right to do so like they like to do in the past. The British their part have acquired in their sphere of influence in Africa a form of slavery so subtle as to elude the brutality of the outside world while attaining the object for which they engaged in the slave trade. The British methods of exploiting the dependencies designated as the Crown Colonies are so subtle as to enable them to produce cheap labor, the main purpose of the slave trade, without the outside world suspecting them of malaiting slavery in these places. In East and South Africa where the country is suitable for European settlement, the natives are turned out of their land to mast room labor, and the outside world is forced to work plantations established by white men; while in West Africa where the climatic conditions render white colonization a difficult proposition; the natives are left on their land to produce cheaply the raw products needed for the maintenance of western civilization.
The foreign ignorant of the subtleties of the commercial system in these parts will, after consulting the statistics periodically furnished by the local authorities, some to the conclusion that, the people of the Gold Coast are a prosperous and, therefore, a contended people. A year ago the trade of this country was barely two and a quarter millions was shown as £22,000,000. But a close analysis of the figures, making up this total will prove that this large trade was created by cheap labor and that the natives of the soil derived very little the advantage from it. After deducting from the trade figures the value of the exports of gold, diamonds and manganese, which are European currency, we have no advantage no advantage save that of wage-earners, we have only the returns from such commodities as cocoa and palm products and these products the natives are compelled to sell, not at the value they should realize in the market, but at the price which the white exporters object to pay for them, thus leaving in the hands of the producers just sufficient to oke out a miserable profit. We have no advantage in the grindates. And to make sure that the natives do not bury their money in the primitive fashion of giving their earnings whereby wealth was retained in the country in the old days and the natives insured to themselves a measure of economic independence, the British have introduced in West Africa since the war a base metal coinage of no intrinsic value which no reasonable being could afford for the money length of time which they have imposed this base metal coinage on the people the British have been exporting from the Gold Coast annually thousands of pounds of the best raw gold in the world.
But we have by no means exhausted the range of ingenious methods by which the British maintain economic slavery in the dependencies inhabited by colored peoples. The very system of AM-BISH-UN TABLETS
AM-BISH-UN TABLETS are used to communicate with the slaves the most secret and most difficult. You'll marvel at the result. They cover almost the entire world and become better appreciated by those who know them. View, view and stillability-match you feel at all the lords of youth.

education in these countries is based on slavery ideas, and they do not dispute the fact that their main object in establishing education here is to make the people larger consumers of British goods. The import trade of this country could be cut down by one by the simple process of providing the people with such educational facilities as possible to possess for themselves locally, some of the articles which they now have to order from Britain; but no such facilities are available, since any provision in this direction would give the natives the training that Would make it possible for them to produce on the spot some of the articles now supplied by British manufacturers. To facilitate the exploitation of the natives, in pursuance of the object for which they embarked on the slave trade, the British adopted the laws that the dependencies inhabited by the darker races of rule known/as the Crown Colony system, under which they impose legislation upon the natives and regulate the political and commercial affairs of the countries to the advantage of their own race.
Evile Spreading
But we have only dealt with a few of the forms of 'slavery' which still persist in the African Continent and perpetuate the sufferings of human beings in bondage. It is true that actual slavery in the buying and selling of people is now confined to a few spots in the habitable globe; even so conscientious people cannot shut their eyes to the fact that the evils of slavery are spreading in several places and in diverse forms under the influence of the white nations to whom slavery in the crude form is an abomination, the forms of slavery are apart from the instances furnished above, observed in the practices of lynching in America. They are found in the attitude of colonial governments when they exceed the authority vested in them by the people over whom they have assumed rule as trustees. They are discovered in the effort to restrict the advance of the darker races to a higher stage of civilization and to retain them permanently in a subordinate position to the white groups. They can be discerned in the studied attempt by the British governing authorities in West Africa to stunt the development of people and to mold their mentality in a manner as to render them always subservient to the will of the white man. And so while meditating on the liberation of domestic slaves in the protectorate of Sierra Leone, we may recall existing conditions in order to realize that the world is now only slowly getting rid of the crude form of slavery, but that it has further stances to go before it can purge itself of all the vestiges of slavery.

The Christian religion has been the tool of the white man in his schemes of universal, dominates over peoples and nations which undertook to see Christianity during the past three centuries as it was shown to them twenty centuries ago by Jesus Christ. Napoléon Bonaparte is, quoted to have said that "God is on the side of the man who was both right and wrong, for God has demonstrated time and again throughout the ages that He is with the strongest battalion while that battalion advances in the cause of truth and righteousness, obeying His laws and His statutes; but that He is with the weaker battalions when that stronger, battalion assures us that He is with the greater battalions His laws and statutes as "more fragments of wind," as it recently regarded the treaty of man as "more scraps of paper."
History, if we have read it right, has shown us that it 4 time He was on the side of the Chinese battalion and at another time He was against it, and that this shiftiness of God manifested itself all along the ages among the battalion's "Greece," Assyria, Ethiopia, Macedonia, Tjmbutuc, Carthagini, Denmark, Spinn, Rome and others. One by one in their turn as they regarded Him as his Lord and Master, keeping His laws and His statutes inviolate. He was on their side; but one by one in their turn as they disregarded Him, His laws and commandments and advanced after the victories of the war, exploit, torture and oppress His chosen people. He turned His back against them. Thus, with all their superiority — complexes, and much vaunted might which Napoleon mistook for God (or until he reached Waterloo and Trafalgar, and which, too, the German Kaiser regarded as God until he met the Sangagalee, Zulu, Ashanti, and other African tribes, and grew in France and Flanders, during the last "European War," their names today are more history.
If we are to have a conception of God through the manifestations of the white man we would undoubtedly be trapped into believing that God is the mite the white man believes Him to be, but in view of the fate of civilization and omnipres of the past with all their might and power, happily, we are bound to conclude that there are some mysterious powers over which neither man nor any of his ungodly and destructive devices have any control. Christian civilization has not yet done its work, you may rest assured of the fate of those of the past there can be no doubt. What it will do to offset this advancing calamity is not half as dangerous as what it would not do in battle against fate and the darker peoples of the world whom it had regarded and treated as more beasts, brutes that had no understanding.
It is remarkable that a man and character like Marcus Garvey spring up almost mysteriously in the African race at a time like this, for every intelligent student, if he is not selfish but honest and fair-minded, will and will be able to mature and ultimate fate not only of the African race but also of brown, yellow and red races in greatly secured through the grand principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League advocated by Marcus Garvey as well as by the fearlessness, courage and fixed determination of the man himself in MILTON BATSON.

Somewhere between minstreldom, racial adjustment and the economic class struggle! Sounds the erudite tone for more than one hour and thirty minutes Dean Williams strokes to impress the residents of Oakland and Berkeley last Wednesday evening with the necessity of "entertaining" the white people.

THE LAST OF MINSTREL DELLERS would not then be permitted to be carried in an intellectual address. He represents in no unmistakable manner a true rule of this biographical pastime.

OTTAWA, March 27 — Premier Mackenzie, King, in the House of Commons last night, said Canada had made known that it would not approve a treaty involving military sanctions and contemplating military alliances. "Within the last few months," he said, "the Government was asked with respect to a treaty that was being neglected between Great Britain and Egypt whether we would become a party to that treaty." The terms of the treaty involved military sanctions, and they contemplate military alliances. What was the reply of the Government, it was, that we did not believe Canada's Parliament would approve such a treaty so far as Canada was concerned; that if Great Britain and Egypt could work out a treaty between themselves, well and good, but that so far as Canada was concerned we did not feel it was in the interests of the British Empire or of the large peace, which it was hoped the treaty would serve that this country should become a party to it; and the British Government accepted.our view."

VIGIOUS ROLE OF MIAMI MOBOGRATS SUDDENLY ENDED
MIAMI, March 31. - Miami's long automatic police rule under the leadership of H. Leakey Quigle, for more than two years a source of frequent public indignation, has come to a sudden end. The chief himself and five subordinate officers, in a reversal of the accepted order, are now looked up in the Dade County stockade—awaiting trial on first degree murder charges for four officers, H. Kler, in June, 1928, was taken to the outskirts of the city "for a ride and a workout." The events that led up to the arrest and indictment of Chief Quigg and Policeman John Caudell, A. M. Tibbata. Thomas Naworth, are stillazy in the public mind, for the Grand Jury which returned true bills against them, worked quietly and precisely until every shred of evidence was uncovered. Two former subordinate officers, William Beechey and A. W. Pearce, were the chief State alas in presenting the evidence which sent the police officials to jail.
Pearce and Beechy, at the time of the alleged slaying, were sent to arrest the Negro bell boy in a downtown hotel when a white woman had lodged a complaint that the Negro had insulted her. The detectives at the hotel, Pearce, and Beechy testified, made the arrest, at which time they so mistreated the Negro that the manager of the hotel protested, saying:
"Please, don't kill that nigger in here."
Upon reaching the police station Quigg ordered the officers not to docket the prisoners no, there would be no record of the arrest and disposition of the case, they said.
Pence testified Quigg, and ordered him to "take the nigger out of the city and beat hell out of him." Pearce claimed he was afraid of the results of this proceduro and feigned illness to the chief and said the Negro was sent out in an automobile with Nazis. Custodial and the chief. That night Tibbets suffered a gunshot wound in the side and the two other officers him to the Jackson Momogil Hospital for treatment, notifying the chief of the accident. They stated, at the time, that Tibbets had been shot down by an unknown assailant. He recovered.
Negro Shot
The Negro was shot to death and Pearce testified the policemen involved confided this to Chief Quigz. He ordered them to agree on some intelligent and coherent story of this and Tibbets' shooting in the event of an inquiry, and, Pearce enlisted, the chief ordered him and Bechecy to hide the body.

Candall and Tibbee were arrested and pistolized for first degree murder. Nasworth away in North Carolina was maimed in a third indictment, and Chief Quigle, in presenting innocence of himself and his men, ordered Nasworth to return and face trial.
Quigle was indicted and attorneys promptly opened a campaign to affect his release on bond.
State Attorney Hunt said the State case is being held up pending the presentation of 'two other' write by Kelson for the release of R. L. Gilson and Nelson Ward, police officers he had in connection with the death of a nego prisoner.
During his crimes of 1995-20 the popular method of dealing with Nerro prisoners was to take them out to the city limits and "work them" before running them out of town. This method was countenanced by the police, who admit the "county was relieved of the expense of boarding them."
LONDON, March 29—Sir William Joymon-Hickle, the Home Secretary, today moved in the House of Commons the second reading of the Equity Franchise bill, which gives the vote to women on the same terms as men. The leaders of all parties spoke for it and it passed 387 to 10 amid laughter at the eminence of the opposition." The bill was voiced by Sir George Cookeril, speaking "the Conservative diohards. He protested that the bill would enfranchise 5,000,000 women by reducing the age limit from thirty to twenty-one and would give women a majority of 2,000,000 over men at the polls.
Lady Astor, a member of his own party, retorted that the right wing of the party "may be singing like swans, but they are thinking like geese." The Secretary and Philip Snowden for the Law Society said that there could no longer be any excuse for excluding women from the vote because they were women.
Sir William declared the bill fulfilled what had been for many years the aim of all parties. Every extension of the franchise had been justified by the results, and great social questions, which were becoming every day more impertinent, only the people participated in legislation.
The speaker said he could not imagine any man in this day saying that women were unfit intellectually for the vote or that their judgment was not as sound as the judgment of men.
Mr. Snowden, while supporting the bill complained that the feature of the present law, which permits university nid business men to have two votes.

HAVANA, March 61. The second International Immigration Conference, with delegates from fifty nations in attendance, opened here today to discuss new and old world problems and people from and country to another. Among them are the immigration regulations of the United States as they affect old-world peoples and the proposed Latin-American quotas as it may affect new world countries. The conference was opened in the National Theatre, with a welcoming speech by the Secretary of State, Rafael Martinez Ortiz. "If countries of immigration show themselves solitious regarding the attention and safety of their citizens," he told the delegates, "if they follow them in their development within the new environment and obtain for them equality in the right to work as well as equal pay, they will be responsible that the countries of immigration adopt resolutions for their sanitary, moral and ethical security.
"Governments cannot, ignore these problems, essential for their welfare, and no arguments that may obstruct their proper solution ought to be considered." W. W. Husband, Second Assistant Secretary of Labor, heads the United States delegation.
