JAPANESE STATESMAN SAYS WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO U. N. I. A. IN BRILLIANT TALK AT OAKLAND
Dr. Nakashima Stresses Tremendous Power of Nationalism in Enlightening Address to Oakland, Calif., Division— "A Kind of Dynamite" Which the Oppressed Have Never Hesitated to Employ
Declares. Famous Leader Has a Feasible Programme Which Embraces All and Should Be Staunchly Supported—Recites Elements of Success and Gives Useful "Don'ts"—The Power of Money
The members and friends of the Oakland, Calif., Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association were signally honored on the afternoon of May 27, at the U. N. I. A. Hall, by Mr. Kaora Nakashima, of San Francisco, Calif., Dr. Nakashima, who is the Executive Secretary to the Japanese Consul General at San Francisco, has frequently granted personal interviews to the High Commissioner of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, manifesting on each occasion a keen and attentive interest in the difficulties of the Negro's racial problems.
In response to an invitation from the Oakland Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, this scholarly representative of the Japanese nation delivered the following address, on "African Nationalism" to a large and appreciative audience.
DR. NAKASHIMA'S ADDRESS
Dr. Nakashima spoke as follows:
"Mr. Chadman, ladies and gentlemen, it affords me especial pleasure to have the privilege of making a talk before this great organization which is decided solely to the improvement of your race. In spite of my being a native of a different country, I have always felt a singular interest in your people and a deep sympathy with their progress, although I do not know much about your condition here and elsewhere. As to your achievement in the past, as well as for your future plans for improvement, it is needless to say that you know for more than I do. For this reason I fear that I am outruling my individual opinion too much when I venture to speak on such a topic as African Nationalism."
There peacefully under the flag of this great commonwealth. Now, do not misunderstand me by thinking that I am trying to instigate the Negro race to assert itself in opposition to the United States, or that I am calling attention of the black people to the desirability of forming a government of their own. That is not my purpose at all in speaking here. I am simply intending to discuss, as one of your fellowmen, how your can best improve the future of your race.
The Business of Hating Garvey
"As I understand, there are two major purposes in the movement of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. One of these is to maintain the doctrine of a return to Africa, with the ultimate purpose of building there a great Negro republic. The
"I understand that there are among your people many organizations which are devoted to almost the same identical purposes, but operate with slightly different methods. Inasmuch as these organizations are entirely sage to me, I shall neither champion nor challenge any one of them. In other words, I am strictly neutral in my attitude towards your political parties, if there exists any differentiation. Although I have temporarily chosen African Nationalism as my topic, I am afraid that my discussion this afternoon will not be strictly confined to the subject, but will be devoted in a rather large measure to the Negro problem in general.
"A Kind of Dynamite"
The angel *Nationalism* has in much of its vital word *Nationalism*, many countries have deigned their boundaries, and thousands of people have shed their blood in their defense. In a certain sense, it is a kind of dynamite. Scholars are advancing various, widely divergent theories, some seeking to identify nationalism with language and race, while others begin with politics, culture, government or religion. Others again try to define and analyze it in a still more complicated way. But I believe *Nationalism* is no more than a sense of belonging 'together as a nation, and this nation' further means a community associated and organized under one government and living together in a certain definite territory. Therefore *African Nationalism* means a feeling or consciousness on the part of Negroes that they are a distinct race, though living in the same territory under a government in common with other races. However, you were born in this country and, therefore, the United States is, of course, your own land by right of birth, to which you pledge your loyalty. You are living

Now, do not misunderstand me by thinking that I am trying to instigate the Negro race to assert itself in opposition to the United States, or that I am calling attention of the black people to the desirability of forming a government of their own. That is not my purpose at all in speaking here. I am simply inclined to discuss, as one of your fellowmen, how you can best improve the future of your race.
The Business of Hating Garvoy
"As I understand, there are, two major purposes in the movement of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. One of these is to maintain the doctrine of a return to Africa, with the ultimate purpose of building there a great Negro republic. The principal leader in this gigantic undertaking is, as you all know, Marcus Garvey. Just as the tallest tree at all times encounters the full force of the strongest gate, so too, Garvey has been most harshly criticized as to his movement, even by those of his own race. So many people assert that his scheme has very little possibility, if indeed, any at all of realization, for the purpose is too—idealistic—Still others say that Garvey is insane. Some of the white Americans hate him as a 'fanatite' or 'radical'. These adverse criticisms may be true in some cases, but still we must admit that he is by no means a man of common calibre. Marcus Garvey is a statesman, leader, and ardent patriot. (Amphion.)
Beneficial "Insanity"
"He is a prophet, who with enthusiasm and sincerity looks forward to the future of his own race. Hence, for the time being he cannot be called insane, for he sees visions which no other mortal has yet been able to see. (Cries of Yes! Yes! and Applause.) This is really a strange world in which we live, for ninety per cent of our civilization is ascribable to this kind of insane persons (Laughter and Applause.) Take, for instance, Napeoleon Bonaparte. When he intended to cross the Alps, the men under his command thought that he was crazy, but he did cross those apparently insuperable mountains! George Washington took up army, with his meigre and untrained band of militia against England, then the mightiest country in the world, possessing a well trained army and navy. At the time, such an undertaking was considered by many as an action that no man of common sense would have dared to attempt. When Columbum thought that India could be reached by sailing Westward, the people ridiculed him by calling him crazy.
Saving the Negro
"After all, nearly every achievement of any note in the history of mankind was accomplished by this type of man, popularly called 'enry.' In like manner, Mavus Garvey, in no exception, no matter what kind of denunciation may fall, to his lot, his undertaking is truly a manly one. (Loud Applause.) I hope and believe that he will realize his ideal in a not distant future. He can be called a veritable Moses of the Negro race. (Cries of 'Heart' 'Heart') Just as the Jewish people had suffered from despoise rule in Egypt by Pharaoh, so the colored race is now suffering from race-prejudice all over the world. (A voice: 'It's the truth!') Who shall be the leader to save the Negro, and who shall lead him out to the land of liberty, peace and equality? Let us now consider some of the examples of how Negroes are facing their difficult les.
Social Equality
"I am told that a few years ago, when the Houston Informer, a Negro paper in Houston, Texas, published an article advocating 'social equality,' its secretary was assaulted by a mob in that city. Again attempts were made in North Carolina to prevent a state school from advertising in the Crisis, also well known Negro paper, on the ground that now and then it injects into its editorials a note of radial equality. It was in 1920, in the state of Mississippi, when a Negro preacher named Franklin distributed a few copies of the Crisis in the train was riding. For that reason he was mobilized after he got off the train at a cartain station. A white lawyer who
was coming to defend him when he was arraigned was threatened with lynching and was forced to leave him without legal aid. Although this has no connection with the aforesaid case, the Mississippi legislature of 1920 passed. An act to make it a dememoran, to print or publish or circulate printed or published appeals or presentation of arguments or suggestions favoring social equality or marriage between white and Negro races. Canker of Pascual de
Canker of Race Prejudice
These examples are perhaps nothing new to you; you know quite extreme cases than these. There are many places in the South and North, as well as in the East and in the West, where justice and law do not prevail; where a Negro's dollar is not worth as much as a white man's. These instances are not limited to the United States, but you will find the same situations everywhere in the world. Accordingly, I am not particularly denouncing this country, but I am reproaching it with race prejudice. I believe you would hardly be satisfied to consider this sort of social system and condition as unavoidable. Most naturally you would try to think of some means by which you could escape from this bitter opposition, that is constantly irritating you. You would earnestly seek to remedy the situation by some method through which you could protect your own rights and safeguard your social status. (Applause.) It is, no doubt, the most natural thing for human beings to desire to do.
The Universal Cry: for Freedom
Looking over the world today, we see here and there and everywhere that the so-called weaker nations have awakened to a sense of nationalism, and are demanding their rights and liberty from their oppressors. They are saying to the stronger nations: We are able to manage things in the way we think proper, and we ought to have a government of our own to suit our people. Give us liberty, land and freedom—then catch what we can do. You will hear this pathetic cry in India, Egypt, the Philippines, and many other places in the world, where they are fighting and struggling in order to secure a government of their own. This is why there is such unrest in the present outlook of the world. The great dynamic word, *Nationalism* which has changed the map of Europe in the last century, is again formulating a like change in Asia and in Africa today. (Prolonged Applause.)
No Unrest—No Advancement
"The Negro race began also to think most consistently and, seriously as to how it could secure a place and recognition as a nation among the family of nations. Therefore, the entire greatfulness of nations at present is not a phenomenon to be lamented, but rather one on which they ought to be congratulated; for where there is no untested will be no advancement on the part of the so-called weaker nations. (Heart Heart and Applause.)
Amalgamationists Given Jolt
"Certain members of the Negro race in America are proposing, as a method of solving the race problem and also the best means of establishing their racial equality, the encouragement of intermarriage between blacks and whites. If this could be realized it might perhaps be a splendid plan, but as far as I can see it seems to be too difficult to realize for many centuries. (Laughter.) Some American social observers say that the Negroes today in this country are far more apart from the whites socially than they were at the time when the Revolutionary War closed. If this statement is found to be true, it is a most discouraging fact for the advocates of intermarriage.
Another Idea.
"Still another idea advanced by thinking men of the colored people is that of educational movement. They believe that only education can bring the Negroes up to the standard that has been attained by the whites, and that only thereby can they compete in any walk of life, whether it be politics, science, business, or industry. Such a man as Booker T. Washington was, of course, this type of leader. This movement, unlike the other, is more practical and there are sufficient proofs for the possibility of realizing such an ideal.
Economic Power
The third method is the one which particularly stresses economic power. The men who believe in this are led by Jugose K. Jones, the moving spirit of the National Haitian League. The Negro people who belong to this group are endevouring to control the economic power, an the best weapon with which to combat social injustice. This also is a practical and efficient means for strengthening the status of Negroes among the whites, here and elsewhere.
Building in Africa
The fourth group is the one under the leadership of Marcus Garvey, who fervently advocates the repatriation of the Negro by means of a voluntary migration to Africa. He believes that the Negro people ought to return to Africa and build, a republic of their own. This again is too gigantic an undertaking to warrant an outsider, like myself, predicting success. However, I sincerely and wholeheartly hope that the feasible ones of these movements may be brought to a realization within the shortest possible period of time. The first base, though difficult, may be a good plan if realised, the second and third are the easiest and most practical, but as to

People Turning to a Common Political and Economic Leadership — Single Government Possible for the First Time Since 1911
Out of the kaleidoscopic changes which are today taking place on the map of the East there may arise a united China differing sharply from anything known to recorded history. South of the Great Wall, where lies the west area of the old Kingdom of China, a population of some 375,080,000 people is turning toward a common political and economic leadership.
This is the belief of Dr. Jeremiah W. Jenks, president of the Alexander Hamilton Institute and long an expert on Oriental affairs. He recently returned from revisiting scenes with which he has been familiar since he served on the International Monetary Reform Commission in China twenty-five years ago. While there he met General Chang Kili-shek and other Nationalist leaders and learned at first hand the plans they have made for consolidating the interests of the Chinese people.
North of the Great Wall, and not for the present included in Nationalist China. Iles Manchuria, with possibly 20,000,000 people. This was the stronghold of Chang Tso-lin, war lord who held Peking until a few days ago. If reports of his death are true, it is now also possible that this area may be added to the Nationalist domain, for it has long been known that the people there sympathize with the Southern cause.
Though Dr. Jenks is not prepared to advise that the United States immediately recognize the Nationalist government, he says that within a few weeks conditions may make this far-reaching step advisable. Then, for the first time in a generation, the government of the United States will be able to deal with authorities speaking in the name of all China.
If the Nationalists are able to consolidate their position and to instill a measure of harmony into the strife-torn atmosphere which has long retarded all progress, the nature of our relations with China may well become a dominant factor in our foreign affairs, he believes. For should a stable government be established, it will mean the blossoming of a nation of united potential wealth and power.
- End of First Stage of Program
"Apparently," said Dr. Jonks today, "the Nationalists are approaching the end of the first stage" in their program. "It will be recalled that Sun Yat-sen, father of the Nationalist movement, stated that the reform would come in three stages.
"The first of these was military. That, we may hope, is nearly ended.
"The second was political. That meant the establishing of firm governmental control over all of China. The third is connected with the second, and involves the elevation of the common people, economically as well as politically. This third step must, of course, be a gradual development, extending over years.
"If the second phase is now about to be inaugurated it will be important to the people of the United States to know what form of government there will be.
"It will probably take about the same form of the regime which has held sway in the South. It will be made up of a national congress of delegates from the various districts and provinces and overseas citizens and called to meet once each year. At the beginning, at least, the delegates will probably largely be selected through appointment."
"A central executive committee of thirty-five members will meet every three months. It in turn will name a political committee of fifteen members; a standing committee of the central executive committee of nine members; and a military committee of sixteen members. Of the latter, nine will be military leaders and seven non-military.
"Already this form of committee government is functioning. A meeting of the central executive committee was held in late February and early March.

Seville Archives Yield Three Columbus Papers
MADKID—There have been discovered in the archives of Seville three curious documents relative to Christopher Columbus—which hitherto were entirely unknown. One is a power of attorney granted by the illustrious navigator, and another is a power granted by his brother, Don Hernandez. These are respectively dated from Salamanca and from Astorica, in 1606. The third document is more curious. It is a reply of the Commercial House of Seville to a royal note ordering it to restore him who discovered the New World a certain quantity of gold that was his property. It is said, in this reply, that Christopher Columbus had not a meravelle belonging to him in the Commercial) House of Seville. These diverse documents have been found in the course of research made in the archives of the protocole with a view to the reproduction of the famous caravel Santa Marina; on which Columbus sailed for the discovery of America, a reproduction which is to figure at the Hipano-Americana Exposition at Seville.
ROYAL ALBERT HALL MEETING TRIUMPH FOR ORGANIZATION SAYS HON. MARCUS GARVEY
The following cablegram, dated June 7, was received by The Negro World in reference to the first public appearance in Europe of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, President:General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association:
The American Civil Liberties Union, through Roger N. Baldwin, director, announced yesterday that it was placing all its resources at the disposal of station WEVD, the Debs Memorial station, in its fight to keep its licence. In a letter to sir G. August Gerber, managing director, of the station, Mr. Baldwin said that the Union, considered the threatened revoking of the license, a matter, of free speech and that the legal staff and other resources of, the Civil Liberties body would be used in the battle. It was stated yesterday that Norman Thomas, Socialist candidate for President, will lead the delegations to Washington that will be organized to protest to the Federal Radio Board.
"We are basing our protest against the threatened closing 'down of our station,' said Mr. Gerber, "solely on the ground of free speech. We are in no sense a commercial station. Station WEBD was established as a memorial to the late Eugene Victor Debs, and it has been used from the beginning as a platform from which every shade of opinion can be freely expressed. Trade unions, Negro organizations, Consumers' leagues, Peace societies, minority political parties and Friends' societies have been among those that have used this station. During the last campaign the Citizens' Union used WEBD to broadcast arguments against one of the constitutional amendments before the people. The station is open to any shade of opinion, and will continue to be open, in the spirit of Debs. The air is one of the most important channels for the transmission of ideas, and so long as those upholding ideas hold by the majority of the people have free access to stations of their own. It is rank determination to single out the only station frankly dedicated to the interests of minority ideas for suppression. I am convinced that the commission will reconsider its order when these arguments are presented to it."
Dr. Drew Nominated With General Coxey on "Third Party" Ticket
Dr. Drew Nominated With General Coxey on "Third Party" Ticket
WASHINGTON, June 9.—White Washington gossiped about the possibilities of a third party growing out of issues before the country, one not only was organized, but it was announced today that General Jacob S. Coxey, known for his leadership of Coxey's Army, and been nominated for President and Simon P. W. Digew, a Negro preacher, for Vice-President.
The party, the announcement says, is "the Interracial Dependent Political Party, which will be known as the third party."
A message to the press extols Dr. Drew, who is listed as president of a real estate company, president of the National Ministers' Alliance, pastor of the Cosmopolitan Baptist Institutional Church and foe of unemployment, and as a man who can draw one of the largest Negro votes in a national election.
The third party convention says it represents 15,000,000 cored citizens of the United States. In a resolution tribute is paid to Governor Smith of New York for his appointment to all the plague of a State commissioner and also for naming P. D. Morton as a Civil Service Commissioner for the City of New York.
William H. Thompson, Chicago's Mayor, received the thanks of the convention in a resolution commending him for his indorsement of Oscar de Priest for Congress to fill the place of the late Martin B. Madden, Republican leader in the House.
A force of field workers for the third party will be organized in Washington, under charge of a church bishop, Sylvester C. Blackledge, who urges: "Rally to General Coxey for President and Dr. Drew for Vice-President, on the third party ticket."
Flouting Metric System Penalized in Mexico
TAMPICO, Mexico—It is unlawful and expensive to buy the metric system here. A Tampico merchant was fined 200 pesos ($100) for advertising his wares in terms of pounds instead of kilograms.
The metric system is supposed to prevail all over Mexico. In the country the Indians often have vague measurements of their own and in the cities Americans and British sometimes lapse into pounds and miles and quarts.
Much lapses, in describing or advertising in Tampico, will be followed by fines, the Department of Weights and Measures will be.
Miss Alice O'Brien of St. Paul, Minn., who went to Africa last rail to travel from the west to the east coast through the Belgian Congo and the Tanganyika territory, told reporters that the trip had been a complete success, and a great adventure. Miss O'Brien returned to this country a few days ago.
She reached Matadi, a Congo river port and the starting point of her African journey, last November and came out on the east coast near Daree-Saaim five months later. One of her avowed purposes was to enjoy herself and to show that a leisurely journey across Africa could be made, in a somewhat longer time, but with very nearly as much comfort and much delight than a journey across Europe or America.
Practically the only bother encountered through the absence of civilized conveniences, she said, was the need for precaution to avoid infections and disease from water and native fruits.
Miss O'Brien said she had been deeply interested in the nativities of the interior, which, the party studied at great length. More than 26,000 feet of motion pictures were taken, showing many phases of native life. The latter part of the trip was made by boat across Lake Tanganyik and by rail from the coast. The first part of the journey followed the Congo for two-thirds of the total distance. In the jungle elephant trails were used wherever possible, and bicycles formed part of the equipment of the party.
The other members of Miss O'Brien's party were Mr. and Mrs. Blair Elandran, also of St. Paul; Ben Burbridge or Jacksonville, Flia. a veteran African explorer, and G.-E. Bell camera man.

New Shackles for Natives of British Guiana — Dark Ages Bill Introduced — Crime to Play Violin After 11 P. M.
In the "Official Gazette" of British Guiana, dated March 27, 1928, was published a bill which will make it an offence for any one who, without the permission of a magistrate or officer of police, sings, dances or plays on any musical instrument, etc., in any house, yard or building in any town or within two hundred yards thereof after 11 o'clock at night.

Moslems Plot Expulsion Of Ibn Saud, Reported
CAIRO. June 10.—A serious plot against Ibn Saud, King of the Hedjaz and Nejd and guardian of the Moslem holy city, Mecca, which may complicate relations between the ruler and the Indian Moslems, was reported in dispatches from Mecca tonight.
Following the arrest of a man named Sayed Badulla on a charge of espionage, documents were seized which, it is said, indicated the existence of a movement directed from India for the expulsion of Ibn Saud from Hedjaz.
Among the documents was, a letter said to be signed by Shawhat All, resident of the Indian Khalifat committee, and addressed to a man in the Yemen territory, inciting him to attack Ibn Saud and declaring that he would receive the whole-hearted support of the Sunni Moslems in India.
The relations between King Ibn Saud and the co-religionists of India and elsewhere has been strained ever since the former seized the holy city.

PROGRESSIVE POLITICS
THE EYES of the world are trained on Kansas City this week. There a great political battle is in progress to choose the man who will be the Republican standard-bearer in the coming National elections. Many other things of importance will be done here, but they will receive scant notice from the majority of people. The world is mainly interested in who will be the man chosen by one of the two dominant parties to represent it for president. This man may be the next leader of the greatest nation on earth.
The Negro is there, too, playing his part as best he may. He, in common with his political associates, is interested in the choice of white man's president in a white man's country, but above all things, he is fighting, fighting, fighting to secure for the 15,000,000 black citizens of America the thing that they were supposed to have received more than fifty years ago. Out of 1,089 delegates, we are told that there will be sixty Negroes. Not many; but certainly a voice loud enough to be heard in the warmness of prejudice called America.
It is interesting to note the gradual political metamorphosis of the Negro in these National conventions. Time was when the Negro is a known quantity in the political equation. Those were the days when the Negro who was fortunate enough to be permitted to tend a convention dared not raise his voice in protest against anything, for fear that this coveted privilege would be withdrawn from him. Then it made no difference how pugnacious a Negro politician appeared among his people at home, he subsided into a meek, unaltered "yes-man" when he reached the convention.
Not so today. And we rejoice at the outlook. Race consciousness is so developed that Negroes are black men primarily, and Republicans or Democrats secondarily. And they want the world to know Men and measures, with "measures" as the chief consideration. His attitude will tend to strengthen the political power of the race America. When there are Republicans in the race with all sorts of cleanings, and Democrats who may jump the political fence at any one, there are men who must be converted to certain issues, and those vote must be sought as a precious thing. Therein lies political power. There is no power in political certainty.
Paradoxical as it may seem, much of the political strength of the Negro, which he has acquired in the last two decades, can be traced directly to the fact that he has slowly, but surely, divided his vote. His change has been very gradual and is the direct result of increased intellectuality and race consciousness. The Negro no longer believes that a thing is true because "the white man says so," nor does he pursue his political career blindly with no thought for the progress of the race as a group. Today the black American demands results from his leaders which will benefit not only one man, but the group which has sent him forth to represent it. Present-day leaders, therefore, realize that to survive they must do more than just on the political hand wagon and take a pleasant ride.
In line with this new policy, we read that certain prominent Negro republicans are urging that the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments be included in a plank concerning the 18th amendment which author Borah proposes to put into the Republican platform. They realize even more than the average Negro, with intelligence, but no particular political enthusiasm, the tremendous power of the ballot in this so-called Democracy. With full power to use its franchise, the Negro American will have in his hand a weapon for which the white man has the utmost respect. With full power to vote and be elected to office, the Negro will have to be respected, and sought because of his numerical strength. Which is as it should be.
We do not want to be too sanguine, but a new political day seems be dawning. We are glad of the passing of the average politician the old school. And we applaud the arrival of the fearless, aggressive, race conscious Negro political leader, who cannot be soft-soaked to silence when the destiny and well-being of the race is at stake. So much praise cannot be given to those who are helping to raise a political standard of the American Negro. Group progress, not personal perf, must be the watchword.

With full power to vote and be elected to office, the Negro will have to be respected, and sought because of his numerical strength. Which is as it should be.
We do not want to be too sanguine, but a new political day seems to be dawning. We are glad of the passing of the average politician of the old school. And we applaud the arrival of the fearless, aggressive, race conscious Negro political leader, who cannot be soft-soaped into silence when the destiny and well-being of the race is at stake. Too much praise cannot be given to those who are helping to raise the political standard of the American Negro. Group progress, not personal self, must be the watchword.
EDUCATION—A PARAMOUNT NEED
1. IS not without a significant purpose that Hon. J. A. Craigen, of the Detroit Division, and one of the High Commissioners, and Dr. Caleb G. Robinson, President, and Mr. Balfour Williams, Secretary of the Universal Liberty University, have been designated by Hon. E. B. Knox, by and with the advice Hon. Marcus Garvey, to make an extended visit to the local organizations for the purpose of arousing more interest and enthusiasm and greater financial support for the upkeep and discharge of necessary obligations of the University.

I IS not without a significant purpose that Hon. J. A. Craigen, of the Detroit Division, and one of the High Commissioners, and Dr. Caleb G. Robinson, President, and Mr. Balfour Williams, Secretary of the Universal Liberty University, have been designated by Hon. E. B. Knox, by and with the advice of Hon. Marcus Garvey, to make an extended visit to the local organizations for the purpose of arousing more interest and enthusiasm and greater financial support for the upkeep and discharge of necessary obligations of the University. The maintenance of an educational institution such as is designed to make Liberty University is very great and constant. The best endowed and oldest universities in the United States are constantly clamoring for more money to carry out their numerous educational plans, and it is natural that universities without endowments have a difficult problem before them all of the time. Liberty University is in this situation. It has mortgage obligations on the property to meet and interest charges; it must have a competent faculty to manage the several departments, and it must have a large body of students who seldom pay as much into the school as they take out of it in expense incurred on their account.
There can be no intelligent or effective association work without a substantial basis in education of the highest and best. This is necessary in order to cope with modern forces which are making
THE NEW YORK TIMES
for the conquest of the earth and the fullness thereof for their benefit. The man who doesn't know a diamond from a pebble or a grain of gold from a grain of sand, who doesn't know how to differentiate soil values—whatever line of activity, he determines to pursue the more and higher the education he has the more likely he will be to succeed.
Science has done more in the past fifty years to enlighten mankind on the potential values in the air, in the earth, and in the waters, than heretofore had been dreamed possible. The invention of farm implements operated by steam power has revolutionized human labor problems and made mass production on large scale the leading factor in most industries. The conquest of the air for radio and aeronautics has been one of the most remarkable developments in the history of mankind.
The Negro in the United States, West Indies, Latin America and in Africa who does not possess the same sort of complete education that the white teach in their universities to the highest and best advantage in the results cannot hope to compete with the whites. This has been notably the case in Africa, whose priceless values have been unearthed by the high intelligence of the white man and his high development of the telegraph, telephone and railroad and steamboat transportation. The Negro's lack of this education in Africa has made him the lowest paid laborer and has placed him in the position of being practically a slave in his own country without any participation whatever in the appraisement of his social, civil and economic values. The vast wealth of the country is fast passing in the hands of the white man because he knows how to appreciate these values and how to use them to the best advantage, while the Negro does not.
We need all the effectiveness that can be got out of Liberty University for the benefit of Africa and we need to give all encouragement and assistance to the growing schools in Africa which aim to unify the aims of the people and enable them to get out of their values the most, and not the least, for their own benefit.
THE PLIGHT OF THE PULLMAN PORTER
HEYWOOD BROUN coined a happy phrase when he characterized the Pullman Company as a panhandler. Some federal police officer should take away the tin cup from this corporation, he says, and confiscate its pencils.
Here is a great private corporation, paying fat dividends to its shareholders, and denying, as a settled policy, to the thousands of Negro men and women who so efficiently serve it and provide its dividends, even the right to organize and ask that they be granted a moderate wage; that they and their families be not forced to depend for meat and bread and the bare necessities of life upon the whims and dimes of the traveling public.
Working—we should have said "slaving"—240 hours a month, these men and women, so unfortunate in their employers, and whose efficiency is a national byword, receive on the average $25 a week—tips, which amount to a little less than $15 per week, included. They organize and make a coicerted plea for humane treatment—for shorter hours, and a wage which would make them independent of tips and restore to them some modicum of honor, and they are ruthlessly rebuffed. "They organize and threaten a strike. The United States Railroad Mediation Board finds that "no emergency exists." The Pullman Company laughs in the men's faces and threatens to fill their places, in case of a strike, with Filipinos and such white men as happen to be unemployed and willing to seab. The American Federation of Labor, whose co-operation is sought by the leader of the porters' organization, sympathizes, but advises a postponement of the strike and a recourse to a "campaign of education and public enlightenment regarding the justice of their cause and seriousness of their grievances." The strike is called off. The Pullman Company still grins. The trains still roll. The hardy white-jacketed victims of a band of heartless capitalists must still toil and fawn to cajole diples from the Pullman's patrons.
And these victims are black men and women all, no powerful voices raised in their behalf, compelled by economic ineptitude and an inglorious perch on the ledge of white civilization to endure or hunger.
Hail, Garvey! Haste the day of a truly awakened Africa!

The last rites performed over the body of T. Thomas Fortune, dean of American Negro journalists, were as he would have had them—simple, quiet, dignified—typical of his life during the last decade, when, weared and worn by his strentuous journalistic and political activities in his early years, he became the sage and seasoned editorial writer and columnist, guiding the destiny of his people and pointing out the pitfalls from the wealth of his experience.
At the last, he was surrounded by only those who knew him well. A small company, each with, a loving memory of the generous, warm-hearted, fearless but gentle friend lying so still in death. The service was brief, in accordance with the last wishes of the deceased. It opened with a short prayer by Bishop Alexander Heard of the A. M. E. Church.
After the singing of "Nearer, My God, to Thee," a portion of the Plae Psalm and the fifteenth chapter of Paul's first letter to the Corinthians were read by Fevered J. E. Rogers of Burlington, New Jersey. After the singing of "Jesus, Lover of My Soul," Fevered Rogers read a brief sketch of the life of the deceased. Short talks on the life of Mr. Fortune were given by Congressman Thomas Miller, Mr. T. B. Patterson of Hampton, Virginia; Father Yensen of the Episcopal church of Trenton, New Jersey, and. Bishop Heard. Each of these men told his own interesting story of his long years of association with the deceased. A selection from "Thals," by J. Massonet, was played by Mrs. Alethe H. Jefferson, who presided at the piano during the service, which closed with the committing of the body. Interment was in Eden Cemetery, Philadelphia.
For two days the body lay in state in the undertaking parlor of Mr Royal S. Wenver. Fitzwater Street, where the funeral service was held. Mahy beautiful floral offerings were sent by prominent men, women and newspapers throughout the country. Letters of condolence were too numerous to be read at the service. The palacebearers were Major Edward W. Henry, Dr. J. Q. McDougall, Mr. L. O. Summergait, Dr. Charles W. Dorsey and Dr. Harold Norwood.

HEALTH TOPICS
By DR. M. ALICE ASSERSON Of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association
Care of the Feet
We hear a great deal about mouth health and foot health an' skin health and other kinds of health today. This is natural, because we have learned that' health—real' health—involves every part of the body. All our organs must be functioning properly to keep us in good general condition.
However, even though we know this, we often do not take care of our bodies as we should. For instance, our feet need good care. They are the foundation on which our bodies stand. They carry us about from place to place, walking over hard cement city pavements, all day long.
Care of the feet involves, first of all, proper shoes. Far too many women abuse their feet disgracefully nowadays by wearing shoes with extremely high heels and very pointed toes. Common sense should tell us that we cannot expect to keep our feet healthy if we bind them in shoes so poorly adapted to the normal shape of our feet.
A good shoe should have a straight inner line, should fit snugly over the arch, should have heels that are not too high and toes that are fairly broad. Such a shoes does not have to be ugly. There are many attractive shoes which possess all the characteristics of "sensible" shoes and are also pleasant to look at. Many also develop foot trouble from improper use of the feet in standing and walking. Point the feet straight to the front in walking. The weight should be supported on the outside of the feet.
Proper care of the feet demands that we bathe them every day. It is necessary to change the stockings often, too every day if your feet persep freely. Changing the shoes often also rests the feet, and shoes wear longer then. Some people exercise their feet at regular intervals, thus helping to keep them in good condition.
We need organization. We need to get together. We need to weed out of the public eye men who try to construct such efforts. Really, we are in a vertical stage of our existence. However, the conditions of the times should not control us. We should control them. We are the masters of our fate, we are the captains of our soul. What we organize to do and require to do—we can do.—Methotrex Triamide.
One writer said that the world really belongs to those who can harness it and keep it. This fellow must have been an imperialist or son of an empire builder. The conclusion smacks of imperialism rather than human justices. God never banegeth this expensive universes with its priceless treasures for man's happiness to any one group of people or any particular set of men. When He said, "Let-there be light," God had stocked the earth—man's storehouse—with sufficient supplies for those than living and those who were to come after. So far as actual living is concerned man can be satisfied with much less than what he must now have, but the more he digs into the vast resources at his command, the more he is eager to kill off his brother and hog all for himself. It is this phase of man's conduct, his greed and selfishness, which accounts for the chaos and confusion with which society is now obsessed. Races are killing off races, nations exterminating nations, individuals crushing individuals, all in the mad scramble to harness the world and keep it, for themselves. For the Negro to remain indifferent in the midst of this rampage, for him to be conservative in spite of what is happening ground and about him, is to invite a catastrophe of huge proportions. If the Negro is to survive in the race for a livelihood he must go into every section of his Master's vineyard and garner what supplies he can lest his white and yellow brothers complete the looting and leave him to a tragic fate.
Must Look to Africa
Those of us who point the Negro to Africa as his one hope of racial security are conscious of the desperate race now on between the white and yellow races for economic privileges. Fortunately, Africa is the one field where competition has not reached the freezing point. The economic resources of Africa can take care of the world's population for at least ten more centuries, while that of Europe and the United States can hardly last another three hundred years. South and Central America can only depend upon certain limited commodities in which the white and yellow peoples already hold the monopoly. Asia is a closed corporation dominated by the Orientals. Africa is the one field where the Negro can successfully challenge the economic supremacy of his oppressors. It is to the motherland we must look in our quest for a sound guarantee of racial security.
"Up from Slavery," the intimate revelation of the struggles and successes of the late Booker T. Washington, written by the great industrial teacher himself, has been translated into the language of Mustapha Kemal Pasha for the inspiration of the young Turk. Great Britain, after years of fruitless efforts to formulate an educational program that would meet the spiritual and temporal needs of her African natives, has transplanted the Tuskegee idea to her African colonies. White America, the chief benefactor of Mr. Washington's labors, drunk with prejudice and racial intolerance, does not think as well of the book as "the unspeakable Turk"—there's no abiding place for it in her educational institutions by which millions of white and colored students might profit from the vision, the indomitable fortitude and courage of the sage of Tuskegee.
Time will prove, what a great many white men and Negroes are too narrow to concede just now—that Booker T. Washington was not merely an unusual Negro, a leader now of his race, but he was one of the foremost world figures in racial adjustment. He was for peace and understanding between the two races. His program of industrial education for his race was based upon this ambition. If he had yielded to his friends and the radicals of his time he would have died "unwept, unhonored and unsugr." George Washington was "the father of his country." Patrick Henry ennobled American patriotism. Alexander Hamilton gave us the finest fiscal system of any nation—Nono of these, however, excelled in his chosen field the achievements of Booker T. Washington in his own. He belongs to that so-called group of men and women who have contributed much to the happiness of mankind and the peace of the world. "Up From Slavery" is not alone a book. It is a lighthouse whose brilliant ray illuminates the whole universe from the campus of Tuskegee.
Society is so contaminated with immoral practices, so weighted down with sin and corruption that we too often forget that villain band of humanitarians whose lives are consecured to our spiritual development and general welfare. We are reminded by their gallant comrades that the names of eight distinguished men have been added during the last year to the list of "martirs of science"—research workers who have given their lives in the quest for knowledge. Dr. Hideyo Hoguchi, Dr. Adrian Stokes, Dr. R. Gullet, died in West Africa, victims of yellow fever, for which they bought a positive cure. Dr. Alvaro Alvin, a Brazilian roentgenologist, died as a result of his experiments with X-rays. Dr. Maximo Memard, French roentgenologist, died from the effects of similar researches. George C. Williams, London radiologist, after submitting to 10 operations, died as a result of his studies. Dr. Alexander Brogdard, a Russian, lost his life after transfusing the blood of a tubercular student to himself. Dr. S. Rawson Wilson, an English anaesthetist, died while experimenting on himself in search of a form of general anaesthesia that would permit patients to retain consciousness.
In every country there is a small group of men and women who have voluntarily dedicated their lives to the service of humility. Hidden away in seclusion, behind closed doors and in up-to-date laboratories, these seekers of knowledge toll unceremoniously, absorbed in their experiments, eager to rid society of those human alliances who rob us of youth and the essence of life. In spite of our indifference to their interest in our welfare it is doubtful whether we can make them happier, add to their zeal and inspiration by praise and adulation. Humanitarians do not solicit applause nor grave publicity—always with them is that consciousness of life worthwhile, of a duty performed, than which there is no greater peace of mind. They build their own monuments and write their own epitaphs. Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his brother." It is from such an affection that peace is born, that races and nations are welded together in one common bond of fellowship. Let us perpetuate it.
Garvey in Europe
Marcus Givley is in Europe cementing white public opinion in the interest of national status for the Negro people of the church. It is the moral duty of every Negro to call in line and make his task a pleasant one. Read the Negro World and follow Givley on his tour through Europe. This is your organization, support it. Let every member get down to business in preparation for the gigantic program the president-general will present to the International Convention at Toronto, Canada, August 1929. The philosophy of Surveyism now holds the attention of the world. Let your Liberty Hall be a Mecca for the masses who hunger after truth and knowledge.
EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS
He who relies upon deceit and falsehood to advance his cause may seem to flourish for a whilie, but truth and right will overtake him, and he will be stripped and exposed in all his ugliiness and unkenedness. - Star of Zion.
up with the best—the Negro people will already stand with other people. An individual or a group of people will be respected, if for expeditionary sake, who are able to do the same things as well or better, which are the most consequential in the lives of other people. Indianapolis Records.
This is the tragedy of the world betrayal in business, in politics, in social life, in church, everywhere we see men's close friends betray them—those who were trusted, go back on their trusts and sell out to the enemy. But let us not forget that we are not above our Master. They betrayed Him. They will betray you. Be prepared for betrayal—Christian Recorder.
Education broadens and lengthens one's vision, thus making it possible for him to see and more accurately judge the consequences of the courses of procedure and the future, through the magnifying glasses of history and comparison. Again, education makes one reasonable, and respectful of the rights of others, rids one of self-conceit and enables him to recognize the difference between facts and feelings, substances and shadows - essential factors in civic, commercial and social development. - Shreveport sun.
We are gratified at the increasing number of race students who are graduating from local high schools and universities. May the good work continue. Let us pool our resources and provide places of employment for some of them and go in earnest after positions for which they are qualified in tax-supported institutions of this city. —Omaha Monitor.
Either democracy is workable or it is not. If it is, its laws should be enforced or repealed by due process. To say it is workable, only so long as it leads to white supremacy, is to deny it. We go back to first principles when we say, that the rape of the Negro's rights brings the patition to the place of decision. It faces universal law observance and national vigor, or nullification and national extinction. Either United States or united States—Kansas City Can

En su último mensaje desde Londres a los miembros de esta organización, el Hon. Marcus Garvey hace las siguientes manifestaciones:
Me encuentro actualmente en Inglaterra y puedo deciros que el país ha cambiado mucho desde mi última visita en 1914. Anticipé este cambio, desde luego, y amenudo hablé en mis conferencias públicas, así como en mis escritos durante mi estadia en Norte America.
Inglaterra ha venido a ser tan prejuicial hacia el hombre negro como lo es Norte America, o quizas mas. Este país ha sido arruinado en este respecto por los blancos norteamericanos de casta baja, sin principio ni educación, que se las hechan de turistas en el viejo continente. Estos irresponsables van sembrando la semilla de su prejuicio por todas partes en esta Europa, dándose el caso que a un negro decente, se le haga dificultoso el encontrar acomodo o alojamiento en cualquiera de los hoteles de primera o segunda clase.
A mi llegada aquí me alojé en el hotel Cecil uno de los mejores en Londres, donde permaneci dos días a disgusto de la clase baja de norteamericanos blancos que se hospedaban en dicho establecimiento; pero mi temporada en dicho hotel se hizo posible, simplemente porque se me conociera de antemano. Mientras permaneci en el, decidí dar una vuelta a Londres de incógnito y visitar otros hoteles de primera y segunda clase y estudiar la actitud que hacía el hombre negro asumian estos establecimientos.
En un día visité cincuenta hoteles buscando alojamiento para mí y mis acompañantes. Adondequiera que fui, tan pranto me aproximaba a la puerta, se desarrollaba un secreteo entre los nüspedes y los empleados, de manera que, al acercarme al oficinista, generalmente habia la excusa de que todas las habitaciones estaban ocupadas y que la capacidad excedía al número reglamentario que la lev impone.
Este es el cambio notable que he observado desde mi ultima visita aquí; porque en el 1914, antes de la guerra, y antes de que los norteamericanos empezaran a invadir a Inglaterra, al hombre de mi raza se le acomodaba y alojaba en cualquiera de los hoteles de primera clase. En uno de estos hoteles que visité había una joven a cargo de la oficina. Esta nos dio una bienvenida miuy cortes y amablemente nos dio el boleto correspondiente a mi alojamiento con mi esposa y otro boleto para mi secretaria. De acuerdo con las costumbres de este país nos habiamos registrado, por consiguiente, todos los arreglos para el alojo se flevaron a cabo, con el entendido de que nuestro equipaje se mandase a buscar al hotel Cecil aquella tarde.
Se hizo esto no porque deseasemos alojo, mas si porque teniamos necesidad de poner a prueba su actitud como dejo ya explicado. Inmediatamente que nos retiramos del escritorio de la joven que nos registrara, una vieja norteamericana levantándose apresuradamente de su asiento gritó en el pasillo: "Sirviente, sirviente," y al acercarsele dicho empleado le dijo algo al oido como sugerencia de que el hotel iba a tener como huéspedes a negros. El sirviente se apresuro hacia el escritorio de registro donde se encontraba la joven que nos diera los pases de admisión y los tres, la vieja norteamericana, el sirviente y la ofioinista entraron en un cuarto cercano.
Cuando nos disponiamos a abandonar el salón, uno de los empleados nos suplicó esperásemos un momento. Poco despues la joven oficinista de quien habíamos recibido la documentación necesaria, aprobando nuestro alojamiento, vinó hacia nosotros y en tono de cortesia y disculpa, nos manifesó que sentía mucho el no podernos satisfacer, pues los cuartos y asignádonos "habían sido tomados."
Este incidente demuestra claramente el prejuicio peculiar que Europa esta asumiendo en contra del hombre negro. Indudablemente los autores de esta predisposición le estan diciendo a los pueblos del viejo continente que los negros se los van a comer, porque son canibales y salvajes. Mi experiencia sobre el particular es oportuna y corrobora mi creencia de que el prejuicio del hombre blanco no es seccional y, por consiguiente, debemos combatirlo como un problema universal.
Candidaturas presidenciales
Ante la expectativa de la reunión de la primera convención nacional la nación entera prepara, su política activa al fin de la cual se habrá decididoinitivamente la cuestión de las candidaturas presidenciales y vicepresidenciales democratas y republicanas.
Entre los republicanos los candidatos más fuertes han sido el secretario de Comarcio Herbert Hoover
Spanish Section
y el ex-gohernador Lowden de Illinois, el amigo de los agricultores. Entre los democratas el candidato más fuerte es el gobernador Alfred E. Smith de Nueva York, al que posiblemente sigue en cuanto a posibilidades el senador james Reed de Missouri. Ambos candidatos democratas, sin embargo, son antiprobhibicionistas, lo que hace su candidatura no simpática a los elementos prohibicionistas del partido y compica gravemente la política entre los democratas.
A large number of foreign visitors are expected for the celebration-Icelandic-Americans will be numerous among them. Many thousands are living in the United States and in Canada and yet they themselves "West-Icelanders." They have already planned a joint visit to their old country on this occasion.

T. Thomas Fortune
Con la muerte de este decano del perlodismo, el telón en la escena de la vida ha caído sobre la carrera utilisima de un hombre, quien comparado con Federico Donglass, quizas algo más que Booker T. Washington y poco menos que Marcus Garvey, la sido un gran factor en la vida e intereses de la raza negra en la presente generación. El Sr. Fortune fue por muchos años agua, filosofo y amigo de aquel gran educador industrial, a quien los blancos concientes reconocían y los negros idolatraban. Felizamente eldestino decibel que el se uniera para colaborar con el único honre que aqui en el exterior superara a la grandeza de Washington y quien continuando la labor de aquel, llevou muy alto la antorche de la veredadera emancipación de la raza negra, llamando especialmente la atención de los multiples parásitos, segun lo advirtiera también-el paladin de Tuskegee algun tiempo ha.
T. Thomas Fortune fue nombrado-redutor del Negro World en 1923, cuando Marcus Garvey y la Asociación Universal para el adelanto de la Raza Negra cruzaban su valle de Gesemani, y pronto emprendió su campaña en contra de las pequeñeces y prejuicios de los afroamericanos enemigos del movimiento que trata de confraterrizar aquel elefento con el negro antillano. Mas aun, sus sanos consejos, su fe y lo justo de sus resoluciones, fueron de un valor inestimable para esta organización, mientras el tenor a la pluma en sus manos mitigaba la furia y silenciacla la vociferación de aquellos que adelcanlaba hasta la decapitation de Marcus Garvey.
La peridida de T. Thomas Fortune será sentida por millones de negros en todas partes, por haber sido un huchador incansable, un troyano sincero a su encomienda, un carácter firme con una determinación inquisquible. Fue un progresista con muy poca conmiseración para el extremista que usurpara los derechos de Etiopia, amparado por la orden existente; un radical ultrajado por el látigo de un conservatismo discriminante. El era un viejo joven, un negro moderno que amaba la tierra donde vio la luz primera, aunque reconocia en ella mucho que desear, pero más amaba a su Africa. Nunca pato por desapereibida la nueva orientación de su raza. Siempre advirtió a nuestros hombres y mujeres las oportunidades que se presentaran, arenguidoles en la lucha por todo aquello que la Constitución del país les garantizara, con el principal 'propósito' de ser más utiles a la labor por la emancipación de Africa. Indudablemente el builiera descado ver dicho día deOLOR.
Desgraciadamente T. Thomas Fortune nos ha abandonado pari siempre y la raza negra ha perdido amo de sus mas grandes hombres. Dos meses y medio ha, cayó enfermo en esta ciudad y fue trasladado al hospital Migericordia en Filadelfia, donde tenia la tierra asistencia de su hijo el doctor Rederico W. Fortune. Segun vivió asi murió—aportando su contribución intelectual en beneficio de los suyos. Desde su cama de enfermo dictaba a su secretaria los editoriales para el Negro World, Los editoriales en nuestro número de la semana pasada fueron sus ultimos consejos. Murió como el buen soldado—armas al hombre, reteniendo hasta el último momento su vigor mental.
El nombre de T: Thomas Fortune vivira impercedero. Desempeno conciliamente la encamienda que el destino le designara. Las generaciones venideras han de appreciar el valor de sus sabias predicas.

Mentaje de despedida
- El dictador chino Chang Tso-Liu en su mensaje de despedida dijo.
- Esta guerra ha dejado a muchas personas en la calle y el hambre se deja sentir en las masas. Si continuamos peleando, el pueblo sufrira-mucho más.
- Este estado de cosas no se esperaba cuando yo comencé la campaña contra los rojos. Mi propósito era salvar el estado. Y aunque ames deseos no han sido coriados por el exito, no debo continuar las operaciones y estoy dispuesto a evacuar la gaudida de Pekin con mis tropas; los asuntos políticos quedan en manos del niño.
Contiando que, China no será terminado como resultado de mi gobierno en los asuntos públicos, y esperando que el peligro del bolsivismo no reyiviría, ne declaró inocente y mi conciencia limpia ante el mundo y las futuras generaciones.
Instrucción individual
La instrucción individual es uno de los métodos pedagógicos modernos más importantes y a la vela, uno de los que está adquiriendo día, por dia mayor número de adeptos.
Si bien es cierto que es un hecho reconocido que no hay dos niños iguales, no es menos cierto que hasa nada se habla preocupado de establecer esta diferencia y de estudiar las causas que la originan.
Al hazer el estudio de este asunto, la psicología moderna ha demostrado que no se puede obtener gránsito en la educación de los niños a menos que los sistemas que se utilice para ello se adapten a dischas diferencias individuales.
Iceland's Parliament to Be 1,000 Years Old in 1930
REXLJAVIK, Iceland. "The 'mother of Parliaments' is generally understood to be the English Parliament, but if age counts the palm goes to the Icelandic Alting, which is to celebrate its tenth celebration in 1930. The Alting, was instituted in the year 1930 on the plain of Thingvalla. The festivities in connection with the jubilee will be held on the old historic spot at Thingvalla.
WANTED IMMEDIATELY $1,000 From 1,000 Members
For Legal Defense of Miami Members Claude Green and J. B. Nemo
In Miami, Florida, a woman by the name of Laura Champion, of Atlanta, Georgia, but who styled herself as Princess Laura Koffey, was fatally shot on March 8, 1928.
Of ten officers and members of the Miami Division arrested in connection with the murder, eight were subsequently freed, but Claude Green, ex-Prident; and J. B. Nemo, Colonel of the Legions; are being held under a charge of first degree murder.
There is evidence in abundance to show that these men at the time of the killing were not even in the vicinity of the murder, but the white newspapers in Miami and elsewhere are saying that Marcus Gatvey wrote letters from Jainiceau giving orders to these two men to kill Laura Koffey at any cost and promising rewards if they were successful.
A thousand dollars are needed immediately to defend these men, and I am authorized by the Hon E. B. Knox, because of my knowledge of this upheaval, to request that 1,000 members of the Association rise up as one and forward to me immediately, one dollar each or more so that these innocent men can be represented by proper counsel.
Every member of the organization knows of the value of the Miami Division to the entire organization. These men's lives are at stake. The prestige and the existence of the organization in the South are at stake. Therefore there can be no delay.
Presidents of Divisions can collect same at meetings and also see that this matter is properly emphasized, but, members, do not wait to be told by your President. As soon as you read this, get an envelope, enclose as much as you can, and forward it immediately to A. Craigen, 1516 Russell Street, Detroit, Mich.
