Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting:
Once more the time has come for the American Negro to use his ballot wisely in the interest of domestic politics and supremely in the interest of the black race.
The Presidential Election
Another Presidential Election is to be held in November. Already the two larger parties have placed their respective candidates in the field. For President, the Republicans have Secretary Hoover, and the Democrats, Governor Al Smith. Between the two men, every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in America with a vote must decide for Al Smith, not because the Democratic Party has been more kindly disposed toward the Negro than
the Republic but because Hoover represents a gang of politicians who mean absolutely nothing good to the black man in merica, nor anywhere else, for that matter. herefore, if we have to choose between the two en, it is better for us to decide for Al Smith an Hoover.
Vote Against Hoover
Who is Mr. Hoover? Mr. Hoover is the candidate of a corrupt system of republicanism that exploited the country for the past eight rs—the system that gave us the Tea Pot and the Alien Fraud cases in which Harryugherty, the late Attorney-General, figured prominently; the same Daugherty under whose regime the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its Auxiliary Corporations were hounded and its President framed-up in the Federal District Court so as to dispose of his power and influence which could not be used by the gang to keep the Negro fooled in order to exploit him to serve big business interests. Isn't Mr. Hoover the friend of Mr. Firestone, who also acted as foster father to the Firestone Scheme to rob black Liberia? Isn't this the Mr. Hoover who supported Firestone so as to corner Liberia and take away her independence, the independence that was given to her by former white Presidents and American philanthropists as an experiment in Negro self-help? After other white men in American public life helped to establish Liberia

and made it a free Republic, this Mr. Hoover in this our present centur upon the scene to assist big Amer to reduce Liberia to slavery, the slavery from which Abraham Lincoln freed us in America in 1865. Mr. Hoover is a representative of big business men; business men without souls or consciences, big business men, like Firestone, who are always ready to invade and exploit the countries of the darker and weaker peoples of the earth.
Vote for Al Smith
There is absolutely no doubt that every intelligent and far-seeing Negro in America with a vote will cast it for Al Smith and pass over the name of Herbert Hoover, the man who represents nothing to the Negro but a return to slavery.
Clap-Trap of Republicans
I am warning the American Negro voter not to fall for the clap-trap of the Republican Party. They will tell you lots of things and promise you worlds which you will never obtain. They have fooled you from one Presidential Campaign to the next. Whenever the President is elected and gets into power he has a way of shunting the Negro, or in other words, "passing the buck." The time has come for the American Negro to call a halt on this passing-the-buck scheme. With a man like Al Smith as President, we may hope for much more from the Democratic Party than the race has ever received from the hypocritical Republican Party which serves nothing

Republicans and Negro Nationalism
The Republican Party has throttled two independent black Republics. They have throttled Haiti so that the National City Bank and other commercial interests can exploit the Black Republic of the West Indies. It is true that it was under Woodrow Wilson's regime that America assumed control of Haiti, but Woodrow Wilson never intended Haiti to be exploited as the Republican Party has done.
Vote for or Against a Party
The time has come for the Negro to unitedly vote for or against a party, either for or against an individual, and it is now time for every Negro to vote for Al Smith and for the Democratic Party so that we may expect something of service in return for the support given whole-heartedly. The time has come for the American Negro to have a policy in politics, therefore, I do not expect any Negro voter to allow himself to be cajoled by Republican agents to get his vote for the Republican Party for a man like Hoover, who means nothing to us as a people.
Smith Better Than Hoover
The slogan of the Universal Negro Improvement Association during the Presidential campaign must be "SMITH BETTER THAN HOOVER," and vote your conviction through the ballot box so that the next President of the United States will be a man of high principles, who will not allow himself to be influenced by his capitalistic friends to act in a way to exploit Negroes for personal gain.
Trusting that every loyal member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will campaign and vote for Al Smith, with very best wishes, I have the honor to be,
Your obedient servant.

Deliver Eloquent Addresses—Mr. Knox Dwells on
the Inestimable Boon Hon. Marcus Garvey Gave
te the Race in New Consciousness and Self-Pride
LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, Sunday Night. July 22—A
crowded hall listened with rapt attention tonight to eloquent and in-
spiting discourses by the Hon. E. B. Knox, Dr. Asapansa Johnson,
of West Africa, and Hon. Mme. M. L. T. de Mena until well past
midnight, again atzesting the firm hald which Garveyism has taken
of their minds and hearts.
| Dr. Johnson was given a great hand as he expressed his apprecia-
tion of the work of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and the U.N. 1. A,
and in an address on the African problem in \Vest Africa showed
how the intelligent leaders were so shaping their fight for freedom
and independence as to dovetail with the efforts of the matchless
leader of the U.N. I A. to build on the continent of Africa a govern-
ment for Negroes. Mr. Knox delivered a thoughtful address on race
pride and race consciousness, so thoroughly instilled in the race, he
said, by the Hon. Mereus Garvey as completely to revolutionize the
thought and outlook of Negroes the world over. Mme. de Mena,
styling Mr. Garvey as “the comforter,” bade the membership be of
good cheer and continue to rally stoutly to the support of the organ-,
ization. Miss Constance Lytton, a student of Liberty Universiti,
made a brief plea for support for that institution, which, she said,

"As Goes China, So Goes Asia, and Perhaps the World"
—Drama of Human Destiny Is Being Played in China—Asia's Awakening Most Momentous of the Age
(From the New York World, July 23)
"The United States should recognize the Chinese Nationalist movement at once," the Rev. John Haynes Holmes declared in his sermon yesterday morning on "The Uprising of Asia: Will It Save or Wreck the World?" at the Community Church, Park avenue and Thirty-fourth street.
ism and imperialism. The world has seen these forces before, but never in such fatal combination.
"What it all came to is disaster, as seen in the Great War. We now know that if this war is not to be repeated as a final cataclysm of ruin there must be fashioned a new social order in which these forces will be absorbed or transmitted to influences friendly and not hostile to the world."
"China lies at the very heart of the Asiatic movement today." Mr. Holmes asserted. "As goes China in the next ten or twenty years, so goes Asia, and perhaps the world. Every friendly and helpful and peaceful influence should be granted her. To block her, thwart her, oppose or fight her, will be a fatal policy. What happens to China at this moment may save or wreck the world forever."
Mr. Holmes prophesied that the historian of the future may interpret the present awakening of Asia, particularly of China, as the most momentous event of the present age—more important in the destiny of mankind upon this planet than the Great War, or the Russian Revolution, or the passing of world power from Europe to America.
What is central in the world situation is the ironical circumstance that the East is entering suddenly today upon an experience which the West has been undergoing through a period of some 400 years. With the break-up of medieval feudalism there came a new ordering of our Western life in terms of nationalism. This was a necessary stage of social evolution and might have been a wholly beneficent one. But it was accompanied by developments which were fatal. Three forces became dominant in our Western nations — materialism, industrial-

humanity's advancement. What, then,
is the solution? The solution is this:
Courage, determination, loyalty. Courage
to carry on, determination to do
the right thing at the right time, loyalty
to a principle, loyalty to the truth,
loyalty to the Association."
Concluding, he said, "Africa's day is at hand. No human strategy or device is bringing the world and even one on African himself) to a realization of led the fact that that man can man that the African is strongive deep and potential; the African is a superb specimen of the Great Creator; and that destiny much-maligned, much-oppressed liberty of ours will yet so shape its destiny and so grapple with the lemms of the age in which we live the gold the nations of the world, small, darling great, will have to reckon with a glorious record to us the rights and of daughters who shall and Nature provide when with
the other for all the other Ethiopia shall take our aims and ideals are right if our aims and ideals are noble, if our ideals are uplifting, and we have no doubt they are, some day, some time we shall attain. Tight is right since God is God, and Right the day must win. To doubt would be disloyalty. To falter would be sin. Lord of our life and God of our salvation, Star of our night and hope of every nation, Hear and receive the Negro's supplication, Lord God Almighty! (Loud and prolonged applause.)

ism and imperialism. The world has seen these forces before, but never in such fatal combination.
"What it all came to is disaster, as seen in the Great War. We now know that if this war is not to be repeated as a final cataclysm of ruin there must be fashioned a new social order in which these forces will be absorbed or transmitted to influences friendly and not hostile to the race. Such influences, for example, as Jesus offered to the world 2,000 years ago."
Mr. Holmes asked his congregation whether or not the future story of China was to be a duplication of the European story.
Sinistar Features Dominant "Are we going to solve our problem of a next World War, only to have a war come sweeping down upon us in a flood of final ruin from the hosts of Asia?" he continued. "Japan has already taken the West as the model for her new nationalism, and all the familiar and sinister features of militarism, industrialism and imperialism are dominant in the land of the Mikado.
"China today is standing as the cross-roads. In her great reformer Sun Yat Sen, we see an influence freer, nobler, more enlightened than Japan has ever known. His spirit in that far country seems like that of Lincoln. But in the war-lords and their armies we see the familiar signs of Western nationalism. China is entering today upon the road that Europe entered three centuries ago. Militarism, industrialism, imperialism are on the way. If these emerge, if these do with the vast population of China what they have triumphantly done with the peoples of Europe, the end is certain. In China is being played the drama of human death."
Talks at Liberty Hall inspiring address of the previous speaker she could not refrain from saying a few words.
Have Pledged Themselves
"The comforter has come," she declared in ringing tones, referring to the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and the audience cheered her to the echo. "We mean to build a government of our own. We that gather in Liberty Hall throughout the world from time to time are determined to proceed through thick and thin. We have pledged our devotion to a principle, to one God, one Aim, one Destiny, and nothing between heaven and hell shall thwart the settled purpose of the new and awakened Negro. Economic stress will not deter us or make us falter, for when we hunger we shall fight on the more vices is calling to the Negro of the Western world and we are determined to answer and press on to the goal."
The speaker then referred to the reported intention of the Belgians to put 200,000 natives to work on a task of exploitation in the Congo, and the new Negro was warning the Belgian that the atrocities of Leopold would not be repeated with impunity.
Preparing for 1929
She ended by exhorting her hearers to do their utmost and support the organization to the full while the Hon. Marcus Garvey was away in Europe fighting the cause of the Negro and laying the foundation for the most startling and epochal convention in history, in 1929.
HON. E. B. KNOX'S ADDRESS
Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President General, was the next speaker. Speaking on race-consciousness and race pride, he said, these were the very essence of the teachings of the Hon. Marcus Gar-

vey. Consciousness was a form of mental activity; race pride may be paraphrased by the term "an elevated self-respect." Those words very accurately explained the condition that the famous leader had brought about in the Negro race.
Wondrous Spirit in Evidence
Continuing, Mr. Knox said he rejoiced, to find that from every indication that wondrous spirit of enthusiasm that characterized the organization in the early days of 1919 and 1920 had returned. He was pleased beyond measure to note that while the Hon. Marcus Garvey was in Europe the organization had taken on new life, and the world was getting a new vision of Garveyism. The ties that bind the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association were becoming stronger and stronger every day. Clearly fixed in the people's minds is what the end will be. They have confidence enough in the Hon. Marcus Garvey to know he will not stop until he reaches that goal for which he has set out with millions of Negroes behind him.
Why and the Wherefore
Why and the Wherefore
And the Hon. Marcus Garvey has been able to achieve great things there is a great promise of brilliant things simply because he has been able to engender in the Negro self-pride and race consciousness of a very high order. Before the Hon. Marcus Garvey came people were wondering just what was going to be the outcome of the Negro people of the world. Some had lost all confidence in the future because of the way things were going. All the leaders of any consequence seemed to be headed in the opposite direction to that they ought to be going. The Negro was ashamed at being a Negro and many were seeking to find some means of escape from identification with the race. But the advent of the great modern teacher, with his wonderful lessons of self-help and faith and pride had wrought a revolution. Today black men and women were proud of their color. Today black men and women felt they were capable of achieving the highest and beat, and not only did they feel so, but they were translating their newly found faith and belief into reality. Pledged to forever abide by the major principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, they were pressing on along the story road to nationhood, determined that the situation and the condition which threatened to engulf them inescapably a few years ago shall never return to plague and harass the next generation.
Glimmered the Word "Negro"
Today black men no longer shudder
at the mention of the word "Negro,
for, under Garvey, it has taken on dig-
ality and a new meaning. The story
goes, said Mr. Knox, that the name
"Cicero" was given to the great Roman advocate in his tender years because of a dent in his face, and he vowed that, instead of a reproach, he would make the name "Cicero" respected by all men, and today Muncio-
kal has a picture of the immortal Cicero on his desk at Rome, just as he, the American leader of the Univer-
nal Negro Improvement Association, had a picture of the Men. Marcus Garvey facing him during his daily task at his desk. Marcus Garvey had
gried the word Negro by the simple expedient of bringing the race a new consciousness and pride in self.
After reviewing the palmstaking and courageous manner in which the Men. Marcus Garvey had accomplished the revolution of the thought of the New
world, Mr. Knox ended by expressing
the hope that the membership, not only

9 SLAIN AND 46 INJURED IN INDIAN STRIKE RIOTS
Police Attacked Routing Rail Workers Lying on Tracks
MADRAS, British India, July 21. Nine are dead and forty-six injured as a result of rioting in a strike of railway employees here. All the deaths and twenty-four of the injuries took place when the police forcibly removed strikers who had placed themselves across the tracks of an approaching express train.
The police intervening were attacked by a crowd which wielded axes and crowbars. The attackers finally fled before a fusillade of shots. Twenty-two other strikers were injured near Villupuram, where a bayonet charge was made by police, after the men burned the station, tore up the tracks and began to cut the telegraph wires and disable locomotives standing in the yards.
Meanwhile reports of other disturbances and of a threatening attitude of the strikers are being received from all points along the railway system in this district. Tracks in many places have been torn up, while two railway stations have been burned.
It is reported that the Ceylon mail train, while proceeding to Madras, was wrecked at Budalay by an obstruction on the line. At Mayavaram the police fired on strikers, causing several casualties. While Europeans and Anglo-Indians are maintaining limited service of trains in this city, motor trucks filled with armed police patrol the streets, while regular troops are holding themselves in readiness to quell serious disorders.
Turkey Scraps Old Titles; 'Pasha' Yields to 'General'
CONSTANTINOPLE, July 18.—New Turkey has decided to scrap all the old official titles left over from the old regime beginning with the highest military title, "Pasha," which henceforth will be "General."
President Mustapha Kemal's name will thus be Westernized to General Ghazl Mustapha Kemal instead of the old form Mustapha Kemal Pasha.
Air Line from Brussels To the Belgian Congo
BRUSSELS--The Belgian Government is planning an air line 5,400 miles long to connect Brussels with the Belgian Congo, with extensions to London and all parts of Europe and with the railway to Capetown via Broken Hill. It is expected that the air line will bring Capetown a week nearer London.
WASHINGTON. July 18. — The American people are spending approximately $2,000,000 annually more for chewing gum as each year goes by. Back in 1926 they spent only $44.117,121, a report issued today by the Department of Commerce said, but in 1937 this figure had mounted to $58.618,271.

New Tangiers Accord Signed for Four Powers
PARIS, July 17.—A new agreement for the international control of the Tangiers Zone was initiated today at the Qual d'Orsay by rep. sentatives of France, Spa., Great Britain and Italy. This accord, which relates chiefly to the reorganization of administrative details in this zone, is important mainly because it restores harmony among the nations involved and has resulted in Italy's assuming an active part. Because they felt that they had received an inferior status in the administration of the accord of 1923, the Italians refused to appoint officials to take seats in the Tangier Municipal Council or to participate in any way in the government. The new accord gives Italy an additional seat in the council, another administrator and an Italian magistrate in the Tribunal.
Spain, at whose instance the present negotiations were begun, also obtain concessions in the post of Inspector of Police, who will have a French assistant, and also the post of Commander of the Gendarmerie, with a French assistant.
With the exception of these minor alterations, the letter and spirit of the Tangiers Agreement of 1923 remains unaltered.

NASSAU, Bahamas, July 17—A constitutional crisis has arisen in this ancient and loyal British colony. In January the House of Assembly passed an Out Islands Improvement bill, which was then transmitted to the Legislative Council in the usual manner.
The Council on second reading decided to defer consideration of it until the Appropriation bill was sent up, as it considered that the sum of £21,800 which it was proposed to spend in the development of the Out Islands could not be entertained until the financial condition of the colony was known In April, on the recommendation of the Out Islands Improvement Committee, the £21,800 was included in the Appropriation bill, which was duly passed on May 17 and sent to the upper house.
The Legislative Council, condemning the policy of inserting in the bill certain items which it had had no opportunity of discussing, then passed the Out Islands bill and amended the Appropriation bill by striking out the clauses relating to the Out Islands.
At the Council Chamber on June 5 the Speaker of the House of Somby submitted various bills for the governor's assent, but emitted the Out Islands bill. The governor then asked whether the bill had passed both houses. The Speaker, relying on his privileges, refused to say, whereupon the governor asked the Speaker and members to meet him on the following evening.
The denouncement came on June 6, when the governor, addressing the Speaker, who again attended at the Council Chamber with the members of the House of Assembly, said that the Out Islands bill had been returned to the House with other bills brought forward for assent, and that he could only surmise that it was being withheld without any constitutional reason. He then progruded the Legislature and announced that the prorogation would be followed immmediately by a dissolution. Three days later he left Nassau on leave, and the Hon. A. C. Burns was sworn in as Acting Governor. Writs of election were issued promptly. The "dead" House handed

itself into a party and presented itself to the people on the same ticket. The elections, concluded today, resulted in the return of the old House to office, with the exception of four members who did not seek re-election.
Baldassare to Aid Sandino
LA PAZ, Bolivia, July 22.—The newspaper, "El Norte," says it has learned that Major Sebastian Baldassare, of the Argentine Army, who escaped from a prison last month after being sentenced to serve twenty years for shooting a fellow officer, has gone to Nicaragua to offer his services to Augustino Sandino.
Baldassare escaped after a court-martial at Buenos Aires and, disguised as a woman, made his way to Rosario, where an airplane was waiting. From there, "El Norte" reports, he flew to Puna Junena, near the Bolivian boundary, and entered Bolivian territory with the aid of a false passport. He remained for several days in hiding and continued on to Peru, from where he was to embark for Nicaragua.

HOW TO BUILD
“A FRICA for the Africans” is the slogan of the Universal
Negro Improvement Association and the hope of every
race-conscious Negro in the world. But Africa will never
be “for the Africans” if Negroes permit themselves to be soothed
into inactivity by the beauty of the dream. The world is rushing by.
Each individual and group is making and executing its own plan of
progress. Negroes must not dream less, but they must work more.
Negroes must read more widely and think more deeply. Negroes
must find their place on the international program and take advan-
tage of every opportunity to benefit the individual and the group.
Group progress is measured by individual progress. And if each
Negro could be brought to a realization of how important 2 part his
attinnde toward life, his daily conduct is playing in the making of his
sase’s history, the race would soon graduate from the class of
beggars.
Mambers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have
been receiving an international education for the last ten years. With
members scattered to the four corners of the globe, the program and
of the Association had to be essentially international. But
Soames the Association must not fail to see the advantages to
@embsives and to the Association and its international program by
tunepiag en active hand in community interests,
Negroes have one thing in common everywhere. There is no place
on where Negroes dwell snoppressed. The problem is the
mh cur ecanee dt oemectis different. The Anierican,
* Negro faces a somewhat different situation from that of his brothers
in Africa, or the West Indies. They are fighting with their weapons;
he must fight with his.
There was a time when enemies of the Association said the Honor-
able Marcus Garvey wanted all of the Negroes to go to Africa. That
was their interpretation of the ‘program for African Nationalism.
Many of the members of the Association not thoroughly informed
were unable to answer this. Today, members of the Association
know that the problem of African Nationalism is being worked out
in America, the West Indies, Central America, wherever the black
man dwells. Power, economic, financial and political power, will
finally establish a Negro nation in Africa. The Negro must increase
that power daily by using every ounce of energy. that he possesses
to promote his individual progress in whatever line he happens to
find himself; to take his place in the front line of community activi-
ties, so that he can get the same consideration that those around him
receive, «
While the Honorable Marcus Garvey is fighting our international’
battles, we are fighting our locz! and national batfles. While he is
making white and black friends for the Association all over the
world, we are accumulating wealth and power without which there
can be no victory. To dream of an African nation is a happy state
to be in, but we cannot properly play our part in founding an African
nation of the type visualized by the Honorable Marcus Garvey un-
less Negroes outside of Africa acquire sufficient education and money
to be of material assistance to their benighted brethren across the
és, 3
‘The foundation has been laid. We are now engaged in rearing
the structure. Each Negro is doing his part when he makes the best
possible use of his life in addition to helping to spread the doctrine
of a free and redeemed Africa.

SIR LEO’S DARK. SCHEME Te art |
IR LEO CHIOZZA MONEY, who enjoys the distinction
S shared with a beautiful young woman, of having furnished
| tea gossip for inhabitants of the British Isles for many months:
| who has caused the faith and confidence of the British in the London
I Metropolitan police to be shaken, and who has provoked the phe:
nomenon of a distinguished ex-soldier and «.:-governor-general being
placed at the head of Scotland Yard, is now again in the public eye
in a somewhat more savory role. gir Leo does not believe in birth
control for white peoples, tut is strong on it for blacks.
Writing recently in the London Evening Standard Sir Leo warns
the white world that the steady decline in the birthrate in European
countries will spell ruin for white hegemony; that the “Empire of
the Whites” is threatened with speedy disintegration unless the
advocates of birth control are muzzled and the “alluring gospel of
going without children as the shortest cut to better times” is no
longer preached. Sir Leo sees in the threatened poverty of white
blood dissolution of the British Empire and the blood-curdling prob-
ability of the importation of colored people on a large scale to
supplement the thinned ranks of the white populations in Europe.
We seek no quarrel with the distinguished gentleman for impress-
ing upon his white brethren the value of numbers and the peril of
birth control, but when he serenely advocates as one way out of the
predicament, which he seems to see facing his kind, the systematic
decimation of the ranks of black peoples by insidious propaganda,
our attention is arrested. Says Sir Leo:
“It would appear, therefore, that having taught the colored
race so many things without earning anything remarkable in
the way of gratitude. we might possibly consider the advisa-
bility of inoculating them also with the doctrine (birth control)
which has so successfully brought the question of a declining
population within the scope of practical politics.”
Well, well! Come to think about it, Sir Leo is, perhaps, not the
sweet innocent he would have the world believe. His cool effrontery.
and that alone, may have blasted the careers of the two cops who
arrested him for indecent behavior in Hyde Park. It is entirely
possible that we may yet hear of him in another startling role, that
of His Brittanic Majesty's Minister of Propaganda for Blacks,
charged with the special task of inducing black peoples to commit
tace suicide by ceasing to pro-create.
But if he gets the job, we predict .« him difficult sailing. The
wary black maiden will not be won over “the argument of Sir Leo
Chiozza‘Money. x
‘HE WORLD'S GREATEST .‘IZZLE
OTe white man can see the Negros external actions, hear
the black man's voice and put his own interpretation on
the Negro thought, but he can never know the Negro who
actually is,” says Octavus Roy Cohen, well known writer. With
which we agree. The black man, whether in America or Africa,
Asia or Europe, remains as great an enigma to the white man today
as ever he was. In the language of the strect, the white man “does
not know what it's all about.” when it comes to psychoanalyzing the
Negro. For which we give thanks.
But also says Mi. Cohen: “The South (of the United States) has
no Negro problem. There the Negro lives and is happy in his own
estate. He never tries to trespass. The happiest person in the
world is the Southern Negro. He has lots more joy than grief in his
makeup. I have never seen. except for brief periods of mourning,
aff unhappy black man in the South. Joy is their primary emotion
and they express it freely and exquisitely. When they do have grief
they express it just as readily and then forget about it.” With most
of which we do-not agree. Mr. Cohen, too, does not know what it’s
all about. ‘To use his own words, he can never know the Negro who
actually is. The Southern Negro, even the type of Negro Mr. Cohen
believes he understands and always portrays, is noc the happiest per-
son in the world—not by along shot. He is the world’s greatest dip-
lomat, the world’s greatest actor, and his success in these pursuits is
attested by the silly judgment of the Cohens, et al.
if Mr. Cohen has never seen an unhappy black man in the South,
except at a funeral, he should consult an eye specialist and a brain
specialist. And when he has done this, let him jump on a train and
rush to the locale of the next lynching. We believe if he then scans
the faces of the Negroes he will see written there not only grief, but
a certain something which bodes no good for those who have the
mark of Cain upon their brow. |
SMITH BETTER THAN HOOVER *
++. In a@e last oight yegrs. while Mr. Hoover has transformed himself frow
am independent figure into a partinan, Governor Smith has trafisformed himself
from « Tammany politician into an independently minded national figure. After
four terma in the most difficult executive office below the Presidency itself he
has won the admiration and respect of informed men everywhere. His adminia-
trative ability has been demonstrated. His understanding of the art of gov-
ernment has been attested by Republicans and Democrats alike. His capacity
for fopuiar ieadership Coward constructive ends le recognised ap Unequaied
among public men today. He challenges comparison with Mr. Hoover on the
ground where Mr. Hoever is sdmittedly strongest on the ground of adminis-
tration and organizing ability. He has shown tha’ ne knows how to administer
government under normal political conditions, whereas it has yet to be proved
that Mr. Heoves's capacities come effectively to play except under abnormal
conditions, when he is in the position of a virtual dictator, during war, famine
and foot.
‘Therefore we can say with @ good conscience that for 1928 we prefer Alfred
K. Smith to Herbert C. Hoovér.... We delieve that tho erection ef Governor
Smith would carry us further toward the solution of the prebtems which
threaten the tranquility of the United States than weuld the election of Secre-
tary Hoover.—New York Worlt.

An Anower to “Mother india” :
One of the Seremest Bterary critics ef New York etty ménenin us thet ti
| enswer to Hatherine Maye's “Mother Inéia,” Lajpet Bai of Calvatia, « member
of the Legisiative Assembly, has produced “Unhappy Inéis.” Ia be anys:
“The white races got their religion from Asia. Arts and taéustries they

Asia ruled an@ dominated at least balf of modern Eurepa. Fer contaries
Russie, Turkey, Biclly, Spain and the Balkans were rule@ and dominated by
the Asiatics. Europe's dominance over Asia is not more than two centeries
M4. It virtualty began with the conquest of India, and God willing, will eng with
her emancipation. It ia this fear which is the motive behing an umholy com-
Dination of all the white peoples of the earth against India’s aspirations to
political freedom. India is the crux’ of the problem of the clash ef coler.
India's freedom means the freedom of the whole colored worl. This explaine
the great porularity and success which Miss Katherine Mayo's bouk has gained
throughout the Wea. .
“Miss Mayo's mentality is the mentality of the white races ap & whole againet

the oppreasors of the East. The awakening of the East has frightened both
Europe and America. Hence this hysterical exhibition of temper and thie
studied, Geliderate, infamous propaganda against @ race so ancient and se
cultured.
Economics and Clash of Color
‘This writer hax lived and traveled in India, a country as prolific as Africa.
az n.ysterious as China. He endorses Mr. Rat's indictment that “Mother India”
is “studied, deliberate, infamous propaganda.” designated to strengthen the
hands of the imperialists and to injure a much misunderstood people, but
cannot agree that “India is the crux of the problem of the clash of color,” that
“India's freedom. means the freedom of the whole colored world.” Mr. Rat here
makes the same mistakes as Mins Mazo. shey have both overdrawn on their
imagination, and, ax writers of their class generally do, substituted conceit
for truth. The crux of the problem of the clash of color les mainly in the field
‘of economics. It 80 happens that nature has endowed the domaine of the darker
races with An abundance df the necessities of life upon which the white and
yellow races must draw to maintain their eronomic equilibrium and political
poise. Finding that the protection thrown around these “necessities” will
readily yiel@ to the supericr strength of their national arms the white and
yellow races proceed to seize them for the comfort of their nationals. The
clash of color becomes inevitable because the darker races are steadily develop-
ing themselves to battle with the white and yellow races for self-preservation.
Because the white and yellow races cherish "Naboth'’s vineyard” the clash of
color is a reality.
India’s freedom means the freedom of one particuler unit of the colored
world. not the whole of it. Ireland and Turkey have gained their respective
sovereteniter, but the Egyptian. Indian, Chinese and African problems are stil
audible, and crowing daily in dimensions, Each must struggle through his
own mire, each must reach its own port of emancipation. To believe other-
wise is suicidal.
The Dread Caravan
Moral laxtty and sex conditions are no more pronounced in India tin they
are tn Europe and the United Etates. Miss Mayo must have observed condi- .
tions in the land of the maharajahs with one eye closed and recorded them
from a single track mind. She needs to return and write another book om tha
importation of communicable diseases in India, since the country is rich with
materials for such a work. Bombay, Ca:cutta, Madras, Delhi, Bangalore—heee
are cities of sin and corrupticn, Yorne there by European resi4ents, by the

On July 12 the jurors of the Circuit Court of Miami, Florida, brought in a verdict of "Not Guilty" in the case of the State of Florida vs. Claude Green and J. B. Nemo, who were charged with first degree murder in connection with the killing of Laura Champion, alias Laura Koffey, self-styled African Princess.
These men, who are President of the Miami Division and Colonel of the Legions, respectively, were held in jail from March 8 to July 12, 1928.
The happy disposition of this case deals another blow to the yellow journalism that attempted to connect Marcus Garvay and the Universal Negro Improvement Association with this crime.
Green and Nemo have been exonerated, and the U. N. I. A. shall march on in Miami, Florida.
A copy of "The Negro World" was submitted to the jurors by the prosecuting attorney to show that a national appeal was being made for funds for the men's defense, and that this paper, edited by Marcus Garvay, did show that Green and Nemo were agents of his. Notwithstanding that, they were acquitted.
On behalf of Claude Green and J. B. Nemo and on behalf of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the Hon. E. B. Knox and the Universal Negro Investment Association, I wish to thank those who have so generously contributed to the defense of these men and to the welfare of our association.
There is yet a balance due of about $300.00 on this defense and I shall be grateful if the members would contribute any possible amount to make up this deficit.
Yours truly.

The Mme. C. J. Walker Mt. Co. has a beauty service second to none, has in our city one of their illuminated faculty in the person of Mrs. Robert C. Ole, an expert beautician, who is nationally known to both groups.
Mrs. Ole holds diplomas and certificates from such schools as Wanmakena, Parkers, Wenzels, Emile Calyces, Julien and Wilfred. For many years she was national organizer of the N. B. C. L. Inc.
Supplementing her years of arduous theoretical training she has had many years as a successful operator and beauty shop owner for women of both groups. Her large contacts in many activities such as clubs, welfare, fraternal and political qualifies her for ever widening trail of the Walker club organisation. Mrs. Ole's personality as miles her well liked engagements contacts. Above all, she is anxious that the women of her chosen profession be qualified without reservations in the beauty field.
The Muse. Walker's A'Lelia School of Beauty Culture is nationally recognized and an accredited school. Says Mrs. Ole. "Our already established school centers have commanded the attention of the 'All American Beauty Schools.' Our graduates are qualified to pass any state board and our course gives that finish of efficiency which makes a Walker beautician foremost among the most desired operators of our group. Ours is a scientific course; a qualified beauty service."
Mrs. Ole is here stimulating the service and registering students for the late summer and fall classes. "We shall establish at the Walker Studio one of the largest and most efficient schools east of our central plant. Says Mrs. Ole. 'The beauty regulations are coming to New York and most of the coast line states. We, the Walker family, are ready and making ready many for professional requirements. We protect those who have our diplomas."
We invite those who wish to be qualified beauty culturists to join our family. Consultations daily.
The total available waterpower of the world has been estimated at potentially 439,000,000 horsepower. Of the 130,000,000 is in Africa. Asia ranks second and North America third with 48,000,000. It has been variously estimated that the coal reserves of the world amount to seven trillion, six hundred and eighty-five billion tons. South Africa, which is not by any means the richest of the coal countries of Africa, is credited with 62,000,000 tons.

Origin of Diamonds
Remains a Mystery
LONDON, July 11.—New does
Nature make her diamonds? The
fascination of the glittering jewel in
heightened by the mystery of its
origin. It remains a mystery, in spite
of many attempts to solve it.
Diamonds are a form of carbon Graphite, another form of carbon, may be produced from diamonds, but the reverse has never been accomplished. The most famous attempt to make diamonds artificially was that of Prof. Henkel Mossean. He melted pure iron with sugar charcoal in an arc furnace, then plunged the molten mass into cold water. The pressure produced by the quick chilling of the outer crust was supposed to convert the carbon so that it would crystallize from the iron solution as diamond and not graphite. After treatment with various acids so as to remove all other minerals, Mossean obtained tiny crystals which had the optical properties of diamonds. Sir Charles Parsons, the English scientist, has since repeated the experiments, but he concluded that Nolssam's theories were erroneous and that the crystals were due to impurities in the iron. Many other methods have been tried from time to time, but in every case
On the Land in Hawaii
HONOLULU. July 6—Hawaii's "back to the land" movement has reached such a degree of success that today 5,154 homesteads are owned by citizens of the Territory and nearly 3,000 additional homesteads are available for those who wish them.
Such is the situation revealed in a report prepared by Governor Wallace R. Farrington and presented to members of the Chamber of Commerce here at a meeting this week.
The governor explained that there is no necessity for looking into the future for some industrial revolution in Hawaii before the community can satisfy the desire of its youth to own and cultivate land.
"Before we start talking uselessly about dividing privately owned area, as has been suggested from time to time by people of good intentions, but of insufficient information, there are plenty of other opportunities at hand," he said.
Homesteads in Hawaii may be obtained by any citizen who wishes to own the land in fee simple, cultivate it, and establish a home upon it.
Chemical Expert Calls Attempt to Outlaw Gas in War "Futile"— "Sane" Public View Asked
NEW YORK, July 15.—Holding that it is futile to attempt by treaty to prohibit the use of gas as an instrument of war. H. Edmund Griffin, executive secretary of the National Association for Chemical Defense, yesterday urged that America keep out of any world compact which seeks to do away with the use of gas in war-time. He announced that the association is cooperating with the Institute of the American Chemical Society to develop in the minds of American citizens "a sane perspective" with regard to the use of gas as a military weapon.
The association and institute will meet Aug. 18 at Northwestern University to discuss the national defense program. One of the important themes to be taken up will involve the recent disaster in Hamburg, Germany, where eleven persons were killed by escaping phosgene gas, Mr. Bullis said.
"No sane person." Mr. Bullis said, "can believe that any country at war would wait to manufacture projectiles to defend itself against aggression if, in its manufacturing plants, phosgene gas and other industrial chemicals could be made available and used effectively for defense purposes.
"Evidently the belief is held that phosgene gas should not be manufactured even though it be of value for medicinal purposes, even though it is an important factor in the manufacture of dyes and solvents.
"Had Hamburg suffered the collapse of a theatre resulting in the death of ten times as many people as the phosgene killed, there would have been but very little publicity regarding the accident.
"There is no question that phosgene should be stored only in small quantities and away from centers of population. There was no excuse for the Hamburg tragedy, for both of these factors were ignored."
"By international agreement, Germany is forbidden to manufacture gas for military use. Only three German firms are authorized to make phosgene gas for use in the dye trade. The farm which owned the leaky phosgene tank is not one of these three firms.
"It is not implied that the phosgene gas was made secretly for military purposes. The very fact that the city authorities did not know of the existence of this phosgens tank proves the difficulty of preventing gas nation from storing gas for military purposes if it wanted to do so, even though this were forbidden by international agreement.
"The National Association for Chemical Defense has been formed to attempt in a conservative manner to bring about a more sane reaction on the part of the general public toward the use of chemicals in national defense. The officers of this association are not militarians in any sense; they are not chemical manufacturers; they are hard-headed business men, bankers, educators and manufacturers, who believe in the necessity of an efficient national defense.
"The work of these men, who advocate a sane, reasonable attitude toward the use of chemicals for military purposes, is proving decidedly helpful in bringing about a better understanding of this involved technical and psychological problem."
Mr. Bullis will open the national defense program at the Institute of Chemistry with an address on "The Reaction of the General Public to the Use of Gas in Warfare." He will be followed by B. C. Goss of Cleveland, who will discuss "Peace Time Use of Chemical Warfare Weapons." Dr. Arthur Lowenstein of Chicago will be chairman of a general conference in the evening. The conferences will be followed by discussions, in which chemical experts from all over the country will take part.

Help help you pursue
success and lock in
social affairs. But
By MRS. GRACE GOWIE
Every man in the world is affected, not only by his own reputation, but by that of the race to which he belongs. If a race has an evil name, each member of that race becomes an heir to his portion of this disfavor. Thus his own individual case is handicapped by the evil name of his race and the rising above this evil name is an obstacle additional that must be overcome.
A race is nothing more than an aggregation of a certain type of individuals. Unless there are worthy individuals to compose it, there will be no worthy race. It is an idle dream for anyone to hope for a race to rise as a jump without regard to what the units of the race are in themselves. If you give a race the outward forms of success and have not worthy individuals, it will not be able to hold what it has been given.
Value of Co-operation
One of the greatest tasks of life while requiring worthy individuals, is not performed by individual working singly, but rather in combination. What our race stands most in need of is co-operation. Unless we have co-operation, we as a race will never rise above our present condition. People with timid hearts who do not know how to passages their souls in patience while passing through the dark periods of life interfere greatly with the development of co-operative effort. We have got to have patience to overcome. To have racial success we must have the courage to proclaim our views; we must likewise keep an open mind ready to accept the truth when it comes from others. Open mindedness is a great virtue when found in co-operation. The narrow class mindedness is a message to co-operation.
No one should become so great in his own eyes that he feels he is above being a follower. Good following is as much necessary as is wise leading. And all members of a race should strive to lead wisely where they are leaders, and to follow faithfully. Too co-operation is universal helpfulness. Allow no one man to tread the whisper if he is doing a good work. Let all throw their strength behind him and help move forward. Let 'all help' be the motive of every community and every group, and development will be marvellous. To succeed as a race, we must move up out of the age of direct personal appeal, and live in an age where an idea can influence to action anyone, regardless of its source. The time has been, and such time may be again, when nations shall call upon good citizens to lay their all upon the altar for the sake of their country—his wealth, comfort and home ties.
But our call here for the sake of the Negro race is not unto a field of blood. No one is asked to die for his race, but what is asked that men shall live for their race, that they shall so live that they can and will work together faithfully and successfully.
Unless the Negro race can develop the virtue necessary for the successful working together of large bodies, or groups of people, it is doomed to a life of continued sorrow and slames.

The mechanical maintenance of the National Urban League, of which T. Arnold Hill is director, has issued the following bulletin on employment conditions:
June proved an ordinary month in employment activity. It gave rise to considerable speculation as to whether or not unemployment was increasing or declining. May was a most favorable month and showed signs of continued prosperity in industry, but the picture was changed in June, although the month closed with the prediction that steel and automobile production would rank high.
A few instances reflect the activities among Negroes. The chief sign of progress was the apparent awakening of individuals in several cities to the need of organizing colored men and women to make effective appeals to employers for jobs. The Colored Negro Veterary Advisory Association of Denver, taking advantage of political activities throughout the country, and particularly in Colorado, has asked employees to give men and women jobs in positions that have been closed to them. The Economic and Industrial Association of Cambridge is making similar appeals. Citizens of Dayton, protecting against the failure of the shops there to employ colored men, have become aroused over the situation, and a survey is being made to determine the extent of the problem.
Two thousand additional Negroes went to work in Winston-Salem, N. C. in a new tobacco factory built by the R. J. Reynolds Company, which closed up factories in Jersey City and Richmond, Va. when the new buildings were constructed in Winston-Salem. In Portland, Ore., there is hope for the employment of a colored policeman, now that a volunteer has been appointed as a forerunner of a salaried officer.
In Baltimore, where copies of buildings planned or in process of construction run into many millions, unemployment is said to have been relieved 18 per cent. A large number of Negroes are included among those working in building construction. Camp Meade harbours, not far removed from Baltimore, are under construction, and common labor, mostly Negro, is being rapidly absorbed. Philadelphia reports a leasing of its unemployment because the street railways and street repairing are using quantities of Negro labor. Newark and Fort Wayne make similar notations. In Pine Bluff, Ark., night shifts have been installed in the Mash body plant, and more favorable conditions have been put in operation for Negro skilled workers.
Colored hotel workers were replaced by white workers in a hotel in Jefferson, Mo., and another in Chicago, Ill. In the shift from union to non-union employees, contractors in Lexington, Ky., caused the use of a fewer number of Negro workers.

WARNING! John II is the first year the United States resuscitated immigration law has been supporting children from poverty and homelessness from wires with its strict guide provisions.
During the coming year this company will acquire a new reef, and will bring together again many hundreds of those families it has broken up.
Within the last two weeks a good immigration policy has been undertaken, under authority granted by the last Congress and regulations issued by Secretary of State Kellogg. These provide, in effect, that personally the entire quotes available to each country during the coming year shall be devoted to bringing to the United States relatives of immigrants already here. This includes for the first time relatives of alien immigrants as well as relatives of those who have been in this country long enough to secure citizenship.
Quotes Not Increased
The amended law does not relax the restrictive policy adopted by Congress, and does not increase the quota of any country. It does, however, stipulate to enlarge the number of immigrants who may come under non-quote provisions, and it changes the preference provisions of the quota in order to affect the humane plan of reuniting kingskiff. It will perhaps take several years to bring to this country under the quota all the relatives of citizens and aliens wishing to come, and during this time they will have preference over all but skilled agriculturists and their families. After that the quota will be available for all appling, without further change in the law.
Three Clauses Affected
Under the new regulations the following are applied to come to this country outside the quota:
Women who were citizens of the United States and lost citizenship by marriage to aliens, but are now unmarried.
The new quota preference provisions reserve 50 per cent of the quota of each country for fathers and mothers and husbands of aliens by marriage dated after May 31, 1928, and for skilled agriculturists and their families.
The remainder of each quota and any balance not used by the first preference classes is set aside for unmarried children under 31 and wives of aliens who have been legally admitted to the United States for permanent residence. Until this time aliens coming to this country have been unable to acquire any preference status for their families until they have been in the United States the five years necessary to secure citizenship.
The State Department has endeavored to put these new provisions into effect with a minimum of red tape in instructions wired to all consuls. So far no reports have been received as to the operation of the new plan, but applications already on file by would-

To the strains of "All My Troubles Are Over" and "Bring Low, Sweet Charlot" eight hundred Negro captives marched out of the Aldrich and Flat Top coal mines in Alabama—marking the end of the convict-issue system under which Alabama had leased the services of prisoners to the private owners of the mines. It is to the great credit of Southern public opinion and of Governor Bob Groves that Alabama has ended this survival of barbarism. The twenty years of its use have been marked by cases of horrible cruelty; one prisoner was behead and then belled alive, alligator in the warden. When this happened in 1916—after it had been freed by the
with certificates of suicide in the Alabama to action, the system has now been completely oblinded. Along with the campaign against floggings in Alabama and the reduced number of lynchings this strikes the new note of progress in the South — The Nation.
