SEND ORDERS TO MRS. AMELIA SAYERS, BOX 22, STATION L, NEW YORK CITY
Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting:
I am today writing from the capital of France. I have been here for several days representing the interests of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the race. I am pleased to report that I have found not only Paris, but all France, kindly disposed toward the black man within the Republic. The charge that we lay against America and England for their social, industrial and political prejudice against the Negro within their national bounds cannot be laid at the door of France. The black man here is accorded the same social rights as any other man. That is to say, if he represents a certain social status, there is no discrimination against him because of his race or color. This, as you know, is not true in England nor America, where to be black is a social crime.
Black Men Accommodated
Black men, if they can pay the fare, will be accommodated in the best hotels, clubs or public places in France. The blacks who are employed here receive the same wages as the whites; they are given a living chance and, therefore, are placed in an economic position to take care of themselves. This is not so in England, as I have explained in a previous message. The Englishman discourages the employment of the black man in England so that he shall not be encouraged to go there; he is kept there in economic poverty. As stated, that is not so in France; he is given a chance to live.
Living Carefree
The Negro I have observed here is living a carefree life, much to my regret. Because of the privileges allowed him, he has not developed a race consciousness in France as racially helpful as that which we have developed in America and other parts where we are struggling for Racial Nationalism.
France in the Colonies
While France, hqwever, is accommodating to Negroes in France and treats them with courtesy and respect, it is quite different in her Colonies in Africa. In the French Colonies, the Colonial Administrators adopt a different policy toward the native than is adopted in France, where he is regarded as a citizen.' The usual method of exploiting the Native African is the order of the day. This is purely a subtle economic policy which we very well understand and which we will ultimately take care of. This is the

Warns the Race Against Losing Its Idealism to Build Constructively for Itself
Working Plan to Further Great Ideals of the U. N. I. A. Cemented with the French Nagro
reason why the Universal Negro Improvement Association urges every black man, French, English, American, Italian, German or Belgian, to forget accidental Nationalism outside of his own race and to remember that the first appeal to us as black men is that we are black and because we are we must have a common outlook economically, politically, socially, religiously and other
Negroes Within the Republic
I honor France because of her treatment to Negroes within the Republic, because ultimately that is the only treatment that will bring about a smoothing over of the irritable race problem. American and British Negroes who come to France may expect decent and courteous treatment in keeping with the French internal policy, but we must not forget that we are black men so as not to lose our racial national pride and self-respect and give ourselves entirely over to the flattery in a way that tends to undermine the black man's hope of autonomous nationalism.
Loyal Negro First
I interpret the attitude of the French toward the black man as a gesture toward making him a good Frenchman rather than a loyal Negro. This may be good for France, but when all things are considered, it is not the best for the black man, therefore, those Negroes who go to France must realize that while it is their duty to appreciate the French spirit of courtesy, it is not for us to lose our racial Idealism, the accomplishment or achievement of which will be the only permanent solution of the race problem.
Men Like Du Bois
I can well see why men like Du Bois, who generally follow the line of least resistance, advocate miscegenation
er, father, brother, sister, sweetheart, wife, or other read the world over,
R THE AFRICAN U. N. L. A. should have a copy to study the principles of the greatest
and assimilation ideas as the solution of the Negro problem. In France they find it easy to maintain this kind of idealism leaving them, therefore, little effort to create on their own account. But the serious and self-respecting Negro cannot allow himself to be intrigued to such an easy but impermanent solution of a problem as grave as that of black and white.
More Sympathetic to France
Comparatively speaking, the black man ought to be more sympathetic and friendly toward France than any of the other major nations, like England and America, because he is beetter treated. He has representatives in the administration of the Government and he has the privilege opened to him of becoming anything in France other than being President of the Republic, except he was born in France. It may be remote for the Negro to becoming Chief Magistrate of France, but still deserves without prejudice. This is not so in England.
Working Plan Established
We have already cemented a working plan with the French Negro by which we hope to carry out the great ideals of the U. N. I. A.
My visit to France is, indeed, profitable, and I do hope for great results. Our convention of next year will surely bring together the greatest scattered array of Negroes ever assembled for any serious purpose.
Again I salute you and convey to you the best wishes from the Negroes of France.
With very best wishes, I have the honor to be Your Obedient Servant,

Miller, 1st Vice-President, occupied the chair, while taking a prominent part in the proceedings was Mme. M. L. T. de Mena, who returned from a speaking trip to Camden, N. J., to lend her presence to the occasion when the members pay special tribute—on the first Sunday of the month—to the work and worth of the Hon. Marcus Garvey.

GREETINGS FROM CAMDEN, N. J.
Mme. de Mena, after emphasizing that there were things to be done which required finances, plunged into a stirring appeal for funds. She said she had changed her plans at the last moment in returning to New York and brought greetings from the Camden, N. J., Division, which, she was glad to say, had taken on new life and was more than holding its own. The other speakers of the evening were Mrs. L. McCartney, 1st Lady Vice-President; Mrs. Ethel Collins, 2nd Lady Vice-President; Mr. J. Harrison and Mr. J. Boltram.
THE SPEECHES
Mr. Harrison, ever popular with Liberty Hall audiences, enthused as in his inimitable way he stressed the necessity for Negroes to keep their eyes on the worthwhile things of life. Mrs. McCartney counselled perseverance and loyalty that knew no swerving, while Mr. Boltram spoke of the great pleasure that was his to labor in the South for the cause.
Mrs. Ethel Collins, in the course of a brief address, apoke as follows:
"If the Negro were to live in this Western Hemisphere for another five hundred years, he would still be outnumbered by other races who are prejudiced against him. He cannot resort to the government for protection, for government will be in the hands of the majority of the people, who are prejudiced against him. Do they lynch Englishmen, Frenchmen, Germans or Japanese? No. And why? Because these people are represented by great governments, mighty nations and empires, strongly organized; yes, and ever ready to shed the last drop of blood and spend the last penny in the national treasury to protect the honor and integrity of a citizen outraged anywhere.
"Until the Negro reaches this point of national independence, all he does as a race will count for naught, because the prejudice that will stand out against him, even with his ballot in his hand, with his industrial progress to show, will be of such an overwhelming nature as to perpetuate mob violence and mob riot from which he will suffer and which he will not be able to stop with his industrial wealth and with his ballot.
When Negroes Were Freed
Sixty-four years ago Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation that four million Negroes in this country were free. Several years prior to that Queen Victoria of England signed the Emancipation Proclamation that set at liberty hundreds of thousands of West Indian Negro slaves. We are descendants of the men and women who have suffered in this and other countries for over two hundred and fifty years under that barbarous and brutal institution known as slavery. Negroes were taken from the great Continent of Africa and brought here for the purpose of using them as slaves. Without mercy, without sympathy, they worked, they suffered, they bled, they died. But with their suffering, with their blood, which they shed in their death, they had a hope that one day their posterity would be free, and we are assembled here tonight as the children of their hope.
At the Bar of Justice
"The Psalmist had great hopes of this race of ours when he prophesied,
'Princes shall come out of Egypt, and Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto God.' Yes, the Hon. Marcus Garvey and a great Prince of Ethiopia has come forth to save his people and his race. See him at the bar of justice for the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world. Let us support him in his effort a free and redeemed motherland, Africa."
French Women to Try Novel Way to Force Senators to Give Vote
PARIS, Aug. 3.—Because the Senate has blocked passage of a bill granting women the vote, French suffragettes have declared war, a war in which they plan to concentrate on the morality of their opponents' private life. This, they say, is a Senator's most vulnerable point.
Active members of feminist associations have constituted themselves into a corps of detectives, each one being told off to watch a cretain Senator. The women decided violent manifestations are out of date and ineffective. Besides, they do not care to be floged by the police. Their new method is subtler. Each anti-feminist Senator will find himself dogged continually. His private life will be opened to scrutiny and the women say they will be ruthless.
"We will follow them everywhere," said one of the leaders of the new campaign. "We will nail their vices, weaknesses, ineptitudes, and expose them to the public so that the latter can see the kind of men who refuse to give women the right to vote.
But the women have taken care to announce that any Senator who declares himself in favor of the vote for women will be exempted from these attentions.
Pullman Planning To Break Strike
The Pullman porter is keeping the manager of the Pullman Company on the tenter-hooks.
To break the threatened strike the company spent in excess of $1,000,000 to build up a machine that, thanks to the strategy of William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, and the willingness of A. Philip Randolph and his associates in the Brotherhood of Pullman Porters to take expert advice, it has had no occasion to use.
It is costing much money to keep the machine in shape, yet the management dare not scrap it for fear that a strike order will find it unprepared.
Meantime the travelling public is not getting the service it has been accustomed to, for many of the Negroes from the rural sections of the South, recruited as strikebreakers, are being taught their trade on some of the crack trains. Last week on a night train from the East the writer encountered one of these rookies who did not know the stations on the line and who made heavy weather of the comparatively easy task of making up berths.
On the other hand the brotherhood is under heavy fire from the Communist element, operating as the American Negro Labor Congress. This group, unable to secure a hall in Harlem, is now publishing the "Negro Champion," in which all who are working with the brotherhood are excoriated weekly.
Just who is financing this group is a mystery.
"But," says Mr. Randolph, "we are certain to rout them. The work is moving promisingly forward."

White Men Weighing Plan to "Change Climate of North Africa" By Creating Inland Seas
White Men Weighing Plan to "Change Climate of North Africa" By Creating Inland Seas
Nearly Every Country in the World Represented—48 Chinese and 28 Japanese
Enrollment at the summer session of Columbia University numbers 14,007 students, an increase of 150 over last year, when 13,857 registered. Of this number 9,735 are women and 4,272 are men.
Registration of men compared with women shows an increase this year of 1.25 percent over 1927.
More than half of these students are engaged in teaching. Another feature of the enrollment is the increase in matriculated students working for degrees. There are 7,435 matriculated this year, an increase of more than 3 percent.
The largest increase in enrollment is from the Central and Western States, whereas the number from the North Atlantic States dropped.
New York State has the largest number of representatives with a registration of 4,203. Pennsylvania is second with 1,139. Nevada has the smallest number with two students, and Wyoming is next with seven.
There are sixty-nine students from Hawaii, the Philippines, Porto Rico, the Canal Zone and Alaska. Total foreign registration is 222, the largest delegation being from Canada, with 127.
There are forty-eight Chinese, twenty-six Cubans and twenty Japanese registered. Nearly every country in the world has at least one student at the university this summer.
Two college presidents are enrolled in summer classes. There are also 151 superintendents, 472 principals, fifteen deans of women high schools and sixteen of colleges taking courses.
Survey Shows Race Groups Split on Election Issues
That there is no "foreign vote" in the United States is the conclusion reached by the Foreign Language Information Service after reviewing recent editorial comment in several hundred newspapers published in this country in languages other than English. The service, with offices at 222 Fourth avenue, New York, is a nonpolitical educational organization supported by popular subscription, which for ten years has been interpreting America to the immigrant and the immigrant to America.
"It is apparent." declares Read Lewis director of the service, "that upon the candidates and the major issues of the campaign, such as prohibition, farm relief and religion in politics, the Worcestershire opinion among foreign language editors is as great as among the editors of newspapers published in the English language. There is not only a lack of unity of opinion between the various racial groups, but each group seems to be split within itself. There are in American approximately 7,000,000 naturalized citizens entitled to vote in the coming election.
Georgia G.O.P. to Name Whites for Electors
ATLANTA, July 31.—Georgia Republican leaders today announced that white Presidential electors will be selected as a direct overture to disgruntled Democrats. Hitherto Republican electors from Georgia in the main have been Negroes, who compose the bulk of the party in this state.
Dissolution today of an injunction preventing the Republican State Central Committee from naming the party electors split the party into two factions, one of which supports Benjamin J. Davis, a Negro, who failed of re-election as National Committeeman at the Kansas City Convention. Roscoe Pickett, chairman of the State Committee, has been deposed, according to the Davis faction, for failure to support Davis, G. F. Flanders, a Davis adherent, has been named to the chairmanship. Pickett and Flanders have called meetings of the State Committee to name Republican electors, the Pickett meeting being scheduled for Aug. 11, in Macon. The Flanders meeting will be held about the same date. Leaders of each faction say white electors will fill their slates. Meanwhile Democrats express little fear of desertions in November.
LONDON, Aug. 4.—A plan to change the climate of Northern Africa by creating inland seas in the Sahara Desert is being considered seriously by the French Government, and the Cabinet is expected to make a decision on the question in September.
Dwight Bramman of New York is the engineer who presented the plan and undertook to raise in America $50,000,-600 to further the project. He made an intensive engineering study last spring of the arid wastes lying below the level of the Mediterranean and extending from the Gulf of Gabes westward to Biskra. He formulated plans to cut three ship canals forty feet deep and 600 feet wide connecting the Mediterranean Sea at Gabes with three dry online lakes called "scoothes."
The first canal is to be ten miles long and will extend from the Gulf of Gabon to Shott Djerid. A second, six miles in length, will connect Shott Djerid with Shott Rharae, and the third will run from Shott Rharae to Shott Meitr, which ends not more than a mile and a half from Meitr.
It is estimated that Mediterranean waters by means of these canals would permanently flood some 10,000 square miles, reaching from Gabon westward. This would mean a water route of
U.S. CHURCHES GAIN 8,000,000 IN TEN YEARS
Catholics, with 3,000,000 Gain Leads All Other Denominations All Own Property Valued at Four Billion Dollars
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—There were approximately 85,000,000 church members in the United States in 1926, including the 18,604,000 members of the Roman Catholic Church. The Catholic tabulation was announced by the Census Bureau today.
Churches of all denominations own buildings and equipment worth approximately four billion dollars, and their expenses for 1926 ran well above $800,000,000.
At the last religious census, in 1916, the bureau enumerated 41,926,000 church members, who owned property worth $1,676,000,000 and had annual expenses of $328,000,000. The figures are not strictly comparable, however, since denominations with a membership of about 5,500,000 were not reported in the 1926 enumeration.
Cathalice the Wealthiest
The Catholic Church is by far the largest and wealthiest. It owns property valued at $337,000,000 and spent $204,000,000 in 1926. Its membership in 1916 was 15,721,815, showing a gain of nearly 2,000,000 in the 10 years, and its property has more than doubled in value, being worth $374,000,000 in 1916. Its nearest rivals in numbers are the Jewish congregations, with 4,087,000 members, and the M. E. Church (North), with 4,080,000
The Catholic Church has more than 13,000,000 members east of the Mississippi and north of the Mason-Dixon line. New England has 3,000,000 Catholics, New York 3,115,000, New Jersey 1,055,000, and Pennsylvania 2,124,000. The northern Middle West States had 4,138,000, including 1,352,000 in Illinois, 312,000 in Indiana and 972,000 in Ohio. South Atlantic States had less than 1,000,000, even including Maryland's 223,000. Figures for other States:—
Kentucky, 177,000; Tennessee, 24,876;
Alabama, 36,019; Oklahoma, 46,723;
Texas, 555,899; Colorado, 125,757; New Mexico, 174,257; and California 720,803.
Growth About 8,000,000
The actual growth in all church membership between 1916 and 1926 is probably about 8,000,000. Director Murphy, of the religious census, says also that children of younger age are being included in church memberships, so that part of the 8,000,000 probably includes younger persons than were included in 1916.
The bureau has registered 1926 figures for IH communications out of 200, the total being 51,721,322.
The feature of the report is not only the growth of the churches but their consolidation. The communicants of 1916 worshipped in 227,487 edifices. Those of 1926, although they numbered 8,000,000 more persons, have only a few, if any, more church buildings than in 1916. The total buildings so far enumerated for 1926, for 51,721,000 members, are 205,368.
The congregation of 1926, averaged
about 252 persons. That of 1925 aver-
aged about 184.
The following table gives membership
figures for 1916 and 1925 for several
denominations:

about 250 miles for searching ships through a part of Tunis and deep into Algeria. The main purpose, however, is to affect climatic conditions and increase rainfall, which, Mr. Braman undertakes to demonstrate, will be the result.
His scheme is based on that of a commission of French engineers, among whom was M. de Lesseps, who in 1882 made a minute survey of the entire region.
Among the high French officials who conferred with Mr. Braman over his comprehensive design were Premier Poincaré, Andre Tardieu, Minister of Public Works, and Albert Sarrout, Minister of the interior. M. Tardieu made arrangements for Mr. Braman to present it to the Resident-General of Tunis, Lucien Saint, and to M. Borden, Governor-General of Morocco. They and their experts are now studying the plan.
The American engineer must have a concession before beginning operations—and on that the French Cabinet must decide—of about 14,000 square miles of territory adjoining the flooded areas. These territories are in no sense a man's hand, for they are under nominal spheres of influence of certain Arab sheds. But as they stand they have no nomination value.

"Nordic Supremacy" Has No Scientific Validity, Professor Drives Home
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass., Aug. 6. The popular theory of Nordic supremacy over other world races has no real foundation, and arises from the concept of the Nordic, Prof. R. D. McKenzie of the University of Washington said during a round-table discussion of the Institute of Politics here today.
No basis for this supposed supremacy exists from a biological point of view, or from that of technical development, and the assumption that people's wits superior technical culture are superior to peoples without that culture has no scientific validity, the speaker declared the white man's advantage over the Oriental, for instance, resting merely in the fact that the white man "got the start."
Informative discussions of national and international affairs have entered upon their second week at Williamstown, where the Institute of Politics is in session. Political and economic problems on the shores of the Pacific; inter-American relations; the protection of citizens in foreign countries; agriculture, and Turkey and its rehabilitation are among the continuing subjects that will be discussed in round-table gatherings and general conferences; also there will be lectures on Belgium and Turkey.
"The more we study and classify human beings scientifically into types," Prof. McKenzie told his group of listeners, "the more confused we become about the meaning of the term race, because the people of the world are all mongrels, hybrids of mixtures of migrating people of the past. This makes for great difficulty when the attempt is made to pick out fewer racial types.
"The old color classification has no scientific validity," claimed the speaker, who said, "We might as well try to classify flowers by their colors."
"Color has great sociological significance, however," he added, "for it tends to differentiate groups and keep peoples apart even though the peoples of different color may belong to a wide variety of racial stocks.
"The concept that the Nordic is superior to the Oriental because he has more and larger industries has no basis in science." Prof. McKenzie continued. "The Nordic happened to be the first to use mechanical energy and just happened to have the resources of energy and thus got the lead over the rest of the world in the nineteenth century that has given him the big head. Now he tries to explain this on the basis of race. "It." Evident that Oriental, the scientific spirit that so many white man in any kind of effort, whether cultural, commercial or scientific."
Blind Negroes Shares In Goldenberg Estate
BALTIMORE, Md., Aug. 3.—Following the example of his father, Mose Goldenberg, a merchant and philanthropist of Baltimore and Washington, Julius M. Goldenberg, who died suddenly in Washington on Sunday, provided in his will for a number of Jewish and other charities. Included in these bequests were a monthly payment for life of $20 to the man who feeds the cats in Mount Royal Station in Baltimore and a similar bequest to two blind Negroes who stand in front of the Goldenberg store in Washington. Bequests are also made to Mr. Goldenberg's wife, relatives and friends.

U. S. Worker Produces 3 Times Briton's Total
The importance of the use of power and of mechanized mass production in the economic life of the United States is illustrated in a comparison between British and American, manufacturing methods, prepared by the National Industrial Conference Board, 247 Park avenue.
Eight selected major manufacturing industries in the United States, which use on an average one and one-half times as much horsepower per wage earner as do the same industries in Great Britain, turn out from two and one-half to three times as much of their product, largely as a result of the greater use of power.
This greater productivity, the board finds, accounts largely for the higher wage levels and living standards prevailing in this country.
Steel works and rolling mills in Great Britain employing 200,181 wage earners in 1924 turned out $460,895,000 worth of products. In the United States in the following year $2,946,068,000 worth of products was turned out with the relatively small working force of 370,726. The production in the American mills was relatively three times as great per person as a result of having 12.35 horsepower behind each worker in place of Britain's 8.15 horsepower.
In 1924 the American automobile industry turned out $4,146,408,000 worth of cars with a force of 429,408 wage earners, as against Britain's $374,121,000 output with a working force of 145,704. A similar differential rate of productivity per worker prevails in the electrical machinery and other industries, according to the findings of the National Industrial Conference Board.
United Kingdom Biggest Buyer of U. S. Candy
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—The foreign appetite for American confections grew 2,000,000 pounds in 1927, figures announced today by the Department of Commerce show. While the sales of American chocolates declined, other candies brought about the huge increase over 1926. The United Kingdom, as usual, was the biggest consumer of American candy, with a demand for the year of nearly 5,000,000 pounds. Porto Rico was second, followed by Hawaii, Alaska, Cuba and Canada.
Judge Who Ordered Arrests Need to Have Acted Within Rights
PANAMA, July 30.—The Supreme Court of Panama decided today that Superior Judge de la Oca had an authority to order the arrest of Opposition party leaders, although it has not passed definitely on the writ of habead corpus instituted for the release of the prisoners, whom the Court released under bond.
While concluding the detention of the prisoners arrested last week the Court did not indicate what action would be taken against them nor by what court on the charge as transmitted by the superior judge of pro-nouncing "subversive discourse, instigating or insinuating the taking of arms against the constituted government and fomenting armed revolution, to provoke by this means a change in the public order." All of the justices favored the decision except one, who reserved his vot.
The question of American intervention was discussed in an editorial in The Panama American today, which refers to the Wilson doctrine of nonrecognition of a Government coming into power by violation. The paper states this has appalled in practice by two Republican Administrations, and adds that this principle, having survived twelve years, suggests as a corollary that "If the United States refuses to recognize a Government which comes into power by violence does it not follow that, to be consistent, the United States must refuse to recognize a Government which perpetuates itself in power by force. Now violence does not necessarily mean a final resort to rife, dynamite and dirk."
The newspaper clites various forms it might take, and adds: "If a situation exists by which members of a party in opposition are absolutely denied the right of franchise, where they are warned not to approach polling places, we have force and violence exercised by the 'ina'."
The newspaper asks in conclusion "Does it not follow that if the United States recognizes a Government thus perpetuating its power, it is placed on record as condoning force and violence, and is made accessory after the fact?"

THE RAPE OF LIBERIA
HE recent expose in which Herbert Hoover is named as the
Teen behind the throne” in forcing upon Liberia the accept
ance of the offer of the Firestgne Company to purchase an¢
develop certain rubber lands in Liberia is of grave importance t
the Negro in more ways than one. Negroes in America are in
‘tensely interested in the disclosure that Mr. Hoover was instrumen-
tal in forcing the issue, and, despite the weak Washington denials,
his reputation has suffered. But, whether Mr. Hoover was the mas-
ter mind or not, the conditions remain the same. The little Negra
republic is surely headed toward the economic and political rocks
which may spell its doom. To boast of having a republic governed
by Negroes means nothing if the hand of the white man directs the
actions of those in authority.
Liberia has long been the only place on earth where Negrocs pos-
sessed the freedom and opportunity to develop in their own way
along the lines of modern civilization. Founded in 1820 by a
greap of Negroes and whites who called themselves the American
Colonization Society, its first settlers were freedmen coming from
the United States. Thousands of dollars were raised for this venture
by white men and women who believed that America owed a debt to
the black men whom it had enslaved and who ought to be given an
opportunity to develop in their own way unhampered by prejudice
ead racial discrimination. The republic was founded and it has sur-
vived for more than a hundred years.
It m conceded that Liberia has failed to develop according to the
bbopes of the founders. This is discouraging, but the chief con-
orn of Negroes ought to lie in the fact that until now Liberia has
rewaimed almost eatirely free of white domination and has thus re-
tained His Wendy as Mew republic in truth and fact. 7
On the surtace, tt-wenktagpear thet the greatest beneGt will come
Str ligeries x9 theyaptonase lta Biesatons Company tith its mif-
ef dollars to develop the country. But existing political cohdi-
fm Liberia”aind the history of the mariner in which the Fire-
concession was obtained tell another story. The peculiar and
dangerous governmental plan in Liberia which gives the President
the power to appoint all government officials, including the District
Commissioners who govern the outlying native areas, places in the
bands of the President an amount of power which ought not to be
held except by a very wise and honest man. And President King
has proved to be very unwise.
Whatever the part Mr. Hoover played in the unholy business, the
United States was very busy doing things in Liberia along abcut the
time that Mr. Firestone was putting through his negotiations for
the rubber lands. In December, 1925, the Liberian Congress defi-
nitely rejected the Firestone offer. In February, 1926, the Honor-
able Solomon Porter Hood, American Minister to Liberia, suddenly
returned to this country to recover his health. (We have no doubt
that it was a litde unhealshy for him in Liberia just then.) Some
time after the return of Mr. Hood, while Negroes in America were
on tiptoe to see who would be sent out in Mr. Hood’s place, this gov-
erament suddenly (?) decided to send Mr. Reid Page Clark, a white
aman, out as Charge d’Affaires and hold in abeyance the appointment
of anew Minister. It was during the administration of Mr. Clark
that the Firestone matter was finally settled. “The mailed tist behind
this trend of events is discernible to a blind man.
President King, a weak, vain, short-sighted creature, seeking
money and power at the expense of the freedom of his people, has
delivered his country into virtual slavery for the next hundred and
fifty years. The story of the ages means nothing to this self-centered
misfit. Knowing the death grip which the white man holds on any-
thing which he once acquires, he shamelessly invites him tc take this.

Tar PABSNT BODY
| FIER mne years of activity the Universal Negro improve-
A ment Association should not find it necessary to be instruct-
| ing its members om the importance of whole-hearted and ade-
| quate support of the Parent Body in New York. That this organi-
| zation has been able to grow from a modest membership of thirteen
| New Yorkers to a world-wide institution with millions on its mem-
‘bership books was not a work of chance. This startling growthy un-
| equalled in this generation, was brought aboyt by dint of untiring,
|covordinuted effort guided and controlled from a modest office build-
ling in New York City. A small army of trained workers, directed
py the elected officers of the Association, toiled night and day that
the gospel of Garveyism might be spread to the ends of the earth,
| that various units should be established and should function success-
jiully, that a practical, homogeneous instrument should be fashioned
|for translating into reality the ideals of an awakened people. -
| Were there no Parent Body there would have been no Universal
' Negro Improvément Association, bulking large in the consideration
‘of great men of affairs today. The Parent Body created. cherished
jand co-ordinated. This it is doing today and must continue to do.
An army without headquarters is but a rabble. Any enterprise, busi-
‘ness or social, without a single, centralized, controlling office, is
|doomed to stagnation and decay. The various States that comprise
these United States would be weakened and torn by jealousy and
strife, as ig the case in Europe, were there no Columbia District. =
Federal offices, no White House housing a common, controlling ma-
chine. And so it is that a Parent Body, functioning one hundred
per cent., is absolutely essential to the growth and maintenance and
furtherance of the Universal Negro Iinprovement Association and its
program. |
For the benefit of new members, especially, thousands of whom |
join the ranks every year, let it be stated once again that a well-|
equipped Parent Body is as vital to the success of the organization
today as it was in 1920. And whoever suggests otherwise is seek-|
ing to mine the foundation of this structure, which has been reared |
at great sacrifice. The fact that the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the leader |
of thé Association, is not in the United States, does not affect the;
question. Functioning here is his personal representative, Hon.
E. B. Knox, whose special duty it is to see that the American divi-
sions maintain their high level of usefulness and who must build and
continue to build on the foundation laid. Mr. Garvey expects Mr.
Knox to kesp the American wing of the organization intact. to carry |
out certain plans calculated to promote the success of the whole
movement, and he cannot do this unless he has the undivided sup- |
port of every unit. He will be seriously handicapped in his task, a/
great deal of what has been done in the past nine years will be un-
done, if the various divisions and chapters, misled by the enpores|
nists, were to degenerate into little aimless clubs. The loyal member
is not the member who shouts “I am for Garvey.” while preaching |
separatism to his fellows. The useful member is not the member |
who sings with all the power of his lungs “God Save Our Presi- |
dent!" while caring little whether his dues are paid. But the loyal |
and useiul member is the member who, realizing that Garveyism |
stands for wholehearted co-operation within the group, not only |
meets his divisional obligations, but secs to it that his division ful-
fills its obligations to the Parent Body. |
United we will stand ; divided we will fall. All can follow. but the |
few must lead. Let Negroes throughout the world bear this in mind ,

ment Association, tgmllimave the foruges obsheir race... |

UT IS becoming increasingly apparent that “Tammany !" will be
I the chief battle-cry of those who are seeking to defeat Governor
Smith in the coming election. If the white gentlemen of Tea
pot Dome, after casting about for a weak spot in the Democretic
nominee's armor, and finding none, have the effrontery to cite Tum-
many’s ancient sins as a reason for sweet forgetfulness of their re-
cent own, Christian charity and @olerance will not deny them the
pleasure. But what moves us to mirth is the sight of certain Ne-
grocs, as the quadrennial harvest of shekels approaches, telling them-
selves and then telling others that the Negro’s doom is sealed the
inoment Smith, a TAMMANYITE, enters the White House.
For our part, we do not very mich care what Hanna and ‘Tweed
Gid fifty years ago, Nor do the malefactions of the Ohio gang give
us sleepless nights. Deceivers-én public office we have always had.
and, no doubt, there always will be. What is of more moment to
us is that Governor Alfred E. Smith, a man of proven honesty and
ability, has by sheer force of character given this sgme Tammany
anew rating in the Nation. We are more inclined to reflect upon
the fact that Mlired E. Smith cannot be swayed by the Hannas and
the Tweeds, the Daughertys and the Denbys, or the Bicases and
the Heflins.
But, this apart, it cannot be denied that the record of Tammany
in New York, as concerns the Negro as a group, is a good one. Tu-
day. to give a single illustration. there are 276 Negroes holding in
the New York/Civil Service, under Tammany, positions paying from
$2,000 to $7,500 per annum.
Negroes will do well to ponder this ‘ere they join the persecutors
of Perry Howard in shouting “Tammany !"

Befere the force of that civilisation which has pleroed mountains and scaled

‘The Turkish nation has taken an oath to live eternally as a nation civilised

auch wisdom locked up in the brain of the chief executive we need not wonder
ut the vitality of the new Turkey. Garvey and the U. N. I. A. are re-educating

and the religion of primitive times to the height of a distinctive civilization
of his own.
Trying to Fool All the People
Secretary of State Frank B. Kellogg will proceed to Paris to sign with am-
bassadore of other powers @ treaty for the renunciation of war as an instru:
ment of national policy, brought into being through the suggestion of thi
astute Mr. Briand of France, and academe discussions between them. The
Dhrascology ie ax sweet as honey, but the reservations the powers have nailed
to thelr terms of acceptance are am bitter as slx-sixty-six. There are funda-
mental reasons for these reservatiors. We find most of them uncovered in the
following extract from the pen of Mr. L. P. Jacks in the Yale Review:
“There in probably no form of agreement more diMicult to achieve
than agreement among armed nations as to an effective means of re-
alsting thelr own tendencies to use thelr arms one upon another. If
| they’ were merely asked to agree in resinting an abstraction or monster
| named “War,” and in enthroning another abstraction or angel named
“Peace,” agreement as to the best means of doing this would be rela-
tively casy—and there 1s much reason for thinking that this ts the form
in which the problem t# most frequently envisaged. In point of fact
the nations are being asked to resist powerful tendencies which have
thelr root and origin in themselves and which none of them could suffer
to be put under restraint without @ self-denying ordinance of the most
drastic kind. It fe rather like asking = group of habitual gamblers
to evolve from among themselves an adequate police armed with powers
to shoot down the firat member of the group who makes a bet. Before
any such thing 1s in the least likely to happen it {e obvious ahat our

Invited There by United States to Do a Necessary Work When Others Balked, He Is New Harried by the Authorities of the Republic-Young Generation Overcoming Disabilities by Co-operation
By W. A. GASKIN
The West Indian did not find himself on the Isthmus of Panama by chance; he is there by a special invitation issued by the American Government. An invitation, which, when stripped of all governmental trimmings, may be read something like this: "Oh! Come and help us, lest we fail." To some this may appear as a wild piece of exaggeration, but it is known that if the laborers from the north of Spain, the Chinese and the Columbians could have done the work West Indians would not have been asked.
Matsuchin proved the graveyard of the Chinese, the Columbians ran back home to Carthagena and the Mushiards did not see the game end. The West Indian stuck to the last, and at the completion of the Canal Col. Goethals gave them due credit for the part they played. To their sterling ability, General Gorgas could testify. In the sanitary department, the West Indian rendered incalculable service, and today, Panama is one of the most sanitary countries in the world.

The Pseudo-Panaman
Hard is the lot of the Negro. If there is a divinity shaping your end, it is being done nightly rough. Exploited by the richest republic in the world, America; discriminated against by the weakest, Panama! It is nat-
Speaking some time ago with a white American, who is supposed to know, I asked him, "Why was it the American government did not recruit another colored labor for the building of the Panama Canal from her own colored population, rather than going down to the British West Indies?" He replied by saying that, "Just at that time there was a great boom in the South." This is not the whole truth. The average colored American knows little or nothing about the existence of the Panama Canal.
I have always thought it would have been better for all concerned If the Canal were built by colored American labor than by West Indian labor. First, there was a great stagnation in the labor markets of the West Indies at that time, and the British government might have been forced to do something for her West Indian colonies. Second, Panama could not have dared to pass her famous. I should say, infamous immigration bill, in the face of such a large colored American population, with Balboa Heights looking on. Third, there could not have been such a disparity in the wage scale. But in the case of the West Indian conditions are so different. He is exploited by the American government on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is discriminated against by the Panama government. For toll government, the West Indian is an undesirable. But these same exploited, discriminated against and undesirable West Indians have left their imprint in the Republic of Panama.

A young French chemist has created a furore among Paradiene women by introducing a new type of skin-whiteener which gives a marvelous whiteness and brilliancy to dark complexions. Instantly—the very minute it is applied—your skin becomes many shades whiter. And at the same time it shimmers globs and shine for hours—concomits freckles and bliemishes—holds powder almost all day long—beams and soothes skin irritations.

Beauty specialists say that never before has there been a skin whitener like this. It is not a bleach and contains no harmful chemicals. It is merely a new type of creme which is just rubbed into the skin like varnishing cream. Instantly the appearance of the skin is lightened! Immediately shine and give varnish—often for 15 minutes. Use it on the arms it makes them white and smooth. Men and it wonderful (or after shaving.

Hard is the lot of the Negro. If there is a divinity shaping your end, it is being done rightly rough. Exploited by the richest republic in the world, America; discriminated against by the weakest, Panama. It is natural that a new generation would spring up from the thousands that were drawn from the West Indies to build the Panama Canal. This generation was, up to two years ago, Panamans. With the advent of the immigration bill they were termed pseudo-Paramans, and were warned not to meddle in the national politics. These Panamans with West Indian parents were the first to detect the racial spirit of the bill. They were determined to put a man of their liking in the Presidencia. The government got wise to the move and disfranchised them. Letters were sent to the National Assembly asking that august body to give a scientific definition as to what constitutes Negro. The gentleman who introduced the bill was called upon to define and make clear his meaning. Of course he failed, as needs he must, whose mind is debased by prejudice and saturated with ignorance.
Gaining a Financial Footing
These civic and economic disabilities have awakened in the West Indian a spirit of co-operation, and he is out to gain a financial footing in the republic. An organization formed just a year ago with a capital of $6,000, is now capitalized at $30,000, and registered under the laws of the republic. One thing is very sure. Panama cannot afford for long to disfranchise children born in the republic without feeling it. And if they give the children born of West Indian parentage a vote, in the next twenty-five years a "pseudo-Panaman" may be the President.

CHINESE OFFICIAL SEEKS U. S. AID IN BUILDING PLAN
Minister of Reconstruction Wants Capital for 100,000 Miles of New Railways—Great Development Projects Planned for New China
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.--Sun Fo. minister of reconstruction of the Republic of China and son of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, arrived yesterday on the White Star liner Majestic on his way home after making a tour of the world which commenced last January. He was met at the plax by members of the Chinese Legation at Washington and the consular staff in New York carrying flags. The minister said he will remain in the city for a few days and then leave for the Pacific coast, stopping at the principal cities on the way. He was educated at the University of California at Berkeley, Cal.
Mr. Sun Fo said he had seen many things in Europe that had impressed him, and expected to find a great deal more on his tour through the United States. Conditions in China were now settling down, and a good start had been made to build up the republic. Asked about the handitry he said that had been checked, and the government will take steps as soon as possible to find work for the disbanded soldiery, which was an important matter and must be attended to.

Motor vehicles will also be considered for the hauling of freight on the rivers and canals that interest the Republic of China in all directions and in the cheapest method of transportation, he said.
China's Development Plans
In a statement he had prepared for the press on the voyage the minister of reconstruction said:
"I have come to America with a two-fold purpose, primarily to prepare the way for American co-operation in the economic development of China, and incidentally to acquaint myself with American conditions, economic and industrial, which have developed since the war during the last ten years.
"I have not come officially as a diplomat to Washington to enter into negotiations for treaty revision, which is the task of my colleague, Dr. C. C. Wu, who is now in this country. But I am here unofficially as a member of the Nationalist government with the object of meeting the leaders of American finance, industry and commerce to discuss ways and means whereby American industrial organization and American finance may be invited to cooperate with us in the reconstruction of our country.
"In 1918, immediately after the World War, my late father, Dr. Sun Yat-sen, took up the study of the international development of China as a humble contribution to world peace. The result of his efforts has been outlined in a series of programs for the economic and industrial reconstruction of China, which were

This scheme of him called "The International Development of China," calls for the construction of 100,000 miles of railways and 1,000,000 miles of motor roads laid out as a network throughout the length and breadth of the land; the improvement of canals and waterways for inland transportation; the development of sea ports and modern cities; the development of basic industries, opening up of our mineral resources, improvement of our agriculture and the colonization of our waste spaces, etc.
Seeks Aid in America
"Now that the whole of China proper has been united under the Nationalistic government, and the military stage of our national revolution is definitely closed, we are ready to tackle the herculean task of national reconstruction. We are determined that the great program laid down by our late leader should be realized to its fullest extent. "America is today the greatest financial, commercial and industrial power in the world. Only with the aid of American business methods and American financial resources can we hope to hasten the process of our national reconstruction. We are, therefore, looking toward America to assume the leadership in international co-operation for the development of China, on the basis of equality and mutual interest."
Minister Sun Fo is a member of the Central Executive Committee of Kuomintang, member of the Nationalistic Government Council, member of the Military Council, and before he left China on his world tour was appointed Minister of Reconstruction.

Equal Rights Program
For Women of India
To Be Exacted Soon
LONDON. July 31 — An equalit
status throwing into the discard their
age-long subordination soon will be
granted to Hindu women, according to
dispatches from Bombay today. A program of equal rights for women, registering the most important and fastest reaching reform ever attempted in Hinduism, has been drafted by the Bombay Conference and is expected to be enacted shortly. The Hindu women's charter of emancipation provides:
1. There shall be strict monogamy, no second marriages being permitted under
any circumstances whatever so long as the first wife is living.
2. Women shall be entitled to judicial separation in all cases of indulgence, desertion or conversion to other faiths on the part of the husband.
3. No minor girl shall be allowed to marry a man more than forty years old and heavy penalties are provided for a guardian giving and a husband taking such a girl in marriage.
4. The widow, mother and sisters of a deceased person shall have the right of inheritance, according to the Indian succession act. A daughter shall have an equal share with a son in their father's property and a widow will take the place of her husband.
The lead in staging the conference at which the reform was drafted was taken by Sir Lallubhul Samaldas, one of the most orthodox Hindus.

The Louisville Division, No. 160
U. N. L. A., hold its regular mass meeting at Liberty Hall, Pythian Temple, Tenth and Chestnut streets, on Sunday, July 29. Meetings were held at 3 p.m. and 4 p.m.
The meeting opened Sunday at 3 p.m. with the Secretary in the chair in the absence of the President. Dr. G. B. Pickens, special representative of the Parent Body, has been with us since July 26.

The hours was packed with large numbers each night of his stay. There was a special program arranged by the division and directed by the Secretary, Mrs. Annie M. Parker.
Miss Edmonda Henderson gave some of her famous selections. The melodious singing of the young lady brought applause from the audience. A short talk was then given by the Vice-President, Mr. Samuel Hopkins, which was inspiring to his hearers. After a song was sung by the congregation, remarks were given by the ex-President, Mr. Richard House. His address was stirring and helpful. A paper was read by the Secretary on "Africa." On the platform were some of Louisville's prominent citizens. The Hon. L. L. Slaughter gave a wonderful address. He is a business man of the city and former N. A. A. C. P. worker.

In his discourse he placed Moses Paul and Garvey together. Those are three of the greatest leaders that the world has ever known. This sermon was a great treat to every one present. Our photograph was then taken by the photographer. We hope to have one in The Negro World soon.

LOS ANGELES, CAL
The Los Angeles Chapter 5-A of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was host to the State Commissioner, Hon. A. S. Gray, from July 19 to July 23.
The Los Angeles Chapter sprung a "now one" on the Commissioner in the manner of publicity. Hand bills were struck and distributed about the city calling the attention of its readers to a "special" mass meeting to be held at the U. N. I. A. hall Sunday, July 22, at 3 p. m. Everybody invited. Subject: "The Negro's Awakening." Speaker, Hon. A. S. Gray, State Commissioner. The esteem in which the officers and members hold their representative is herewith testified: "Don't miss this opportunity to hear the GREATEST race man on the Pacific Coast."
An enthusiastic and responsive audience greeted the Commissioner at the scheduled hour. Dr. R. A. Scott, the efficient chaplain, performed the ritualistic service, and after a brief Scriptural reading called for one minute's silent prayer for the safety and success of our great leader. Hon. Marcus Garvey, in Europe.
Vice President J. A. McGann acted as master of ceremonies and conducted in his pleasing style the program activities. Brother F. Markland was called upon to read the "Alms and Objects" of the organization, which was listened to with rapt attention. Mrs. F. Hydes sang a beautiful solo which was received with liberal applause. Miss Fanny Hagues, lady president, was called upon to read the front page message of our President General from The Negro World. All present were inspired to carry on for the great work of African redemption.
After the lifting of the offering one of Los Angeles' most faithful workers in the person of Brother P. I. Parrison was heard. Mr. Parrison was introduced as the "War Horse of the Pacific Coast" and in his well-selected subject he proved himself deserving of the title. Briefly, he commented upon "Africa Has Spoken, and Her Voice Has Been Heard." Appreciative applause was accorded the speaker. The song, "Ced Bless Our President," was next sung, after which the fiery president of Chapter 5-A, Mr. Frank Fulton, was introduced, and in a few select remarks presented 168 Commissars.
Commissioner Gray expressed his interest for the unique honor and triumph paid him by the Los Angeles Chapter, and stated that since the U. N. I. A. is the greatest organization in the life of the Negro peoples of the world, he would humbly bow in acquiescence to the title conferred. A contrast of the sleeping and the awakened Negro was made by the Commissioner, basing his comment upon the passage of Scripture found in John 5:25. Negroes were warned to hearken to their God-sent leader, Hon. Marcus Garvey, who possessed the plans for our complete encantation and the redemption of our motherland, Africa. A ringing appeal was made for honesty, intelligence and loyalty from all officers and other persons in positions of authority and responsibility.
EAST BROOKLYN, N. Y.
The East Brooklyn Chapter held a successful mass meeting in Unia Hall, 669 Herkimer street, on Sunday, July 29, at 5 p.m. at which time we had our honored guest and principal speaker Prof. Caleb B. Robinson, president of Liberty University. The audience was kept in high humor from start to finish by the learned professor; but the note of seriousness and unexpressed determination was not lacking. This wonderful oration was certainly enjoyed by all, and the philosophy that was to be found therein was certainly food for thought. The meeting was staged in behalf of Liberty University, the Race's moral power house, from whence shall come the real leaders for this great reform movement to restore the ancient glories of Ethiopia. Judging from the high spirit of enthusiasm which prevailed in our meetings from time to time, one must conclude that this movement is a divine movement for a divine purpose.
The program was as follows: Opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains"; ritualistic ceremony by the choir; reading of the President General's message by the secretary, Mr. B. Dalrymple; hymn; opening address by the chairman, Mr. Milton E. Kelly; address by Lieutenant Roberts, first vice president, subject, "The Necessity of Self Help." Among other things, he stressed the necessity of supporting our own business enterprises, thereby making opportunities for our girls and boys.
The next number was a vocal solo by Mrs. W. Stevens, our accomplished pianist. Remarks by Mr. H. Braithwaite, ex-president of East Brooklyn chapter, hymn, "Forward Be Our Watchword"; lifting of offerings; presentation of Pref. C. B. Robinson, president of Liberty University; announcements.
The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.

CENTRAL BAGUANOS, CUBA
---
On Sunday, June 17, the Bagamoor Division, No. 882, held its regular mass meeting. The meeting was called to order at 8 p. m. by the executive secretary, J. A. Moore. The opening ode "From Greenland's Ice Mountain" was sung, followed by the religious rites after which the meeting was turned over to the first vice-president, Mr. I. E. Gordon. Hymn from the ritual followed by an address by Mr. T. J. Parks; song, "The End of the Road." by Miss Zalma Denton; address by Mr. S. S. Comrie; address by Mr. J. A. Moore; solo by Miss Zalma Denton; address by Mr. E. Kenbock; solo by Mr. Nahoth Gale; address by Mr. Spencer Paris; address by Mr. David Nathan; address by Mr. E. Sybilis; address by Mr. H. Edwards. The next item was the reorganizing of the division by Mr. D. Nathan and Mr. S. Paris; T. C. Parks was elected president. The other officers were an follows:—Mrs. Quinth Parley, Lady President; J. A. Moore, Executive Secretary; Miss Ruth Samuels, General Secretary; Mrs. Hilda Edmund, Treasurer; E. Sybilis, chaplain; V. E. Gordon, First Vice-President; H. Edwards, Second Vice-President; Head Nurse, Lopez.
Our meeting then came to its close with the singing of the National Anthem.
On Sunday, July 1, Garvey Day was celebrated. Mr. David Nathan acted as chairman. Meeting opened with a hymn and prayer. Solos were rendered by Mr. J. Ramsey and Miss Clara Lopez. A duet, "Lead Me Gently Over," was rendered by Mr. J. Ramsey and Mr. Sydney Lee, who left the rostrum after tremendous applause. The 133rd Psalm was read by J. Ranger when the officers were installed by Mr. D. Nathan. After the installation, Mr. T. C. Parks, president, gave thanks to Mr. Nathan for renewing the spirit of the people. Short addresses were delivered by Mr. O. E. Gordon, first vice-president; Mr. H. Edwards, second vice-president; J. A. Moore, executive secretary, and Mr. E. Sybillas.
The meeting then came to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National anthem and prayer by the preside-
Wednesday night, July 11. 1925. Commissioner Haynes! after a preparatory meeting was held by Mr. Hubert R. Hayer, the president, ascended the steps of Liberty Hall to inspire and convince, respectively, members and unbelievers of Garveyism.
After due courtesy had been rendered the commissioner he began his address, which was descriptive of his late successes in the field; Charleston, N. C., where a ten-day meeting was held, and where a prominent minister and undertaker made striking and peculiar confessions of their conversion to Garveyham; at Sallabury, N. C., where an open-air meeting was held on the college (Livingston) campus recently, which was also successful. He especially congratulated Kinston for the part its delegation played in the Sallabury meeting's success. Mr. Haynes reported unusual courtesy as extended by the white local newspaper, and by the Mayor and other city officials of Sallabury, Spencer and Asheville.
After he had appealed to support Liberty University he concluded by referring to the Negro as having something mentally wrong in not wishing to follow his own leader, and by asking, in Mr. Garvey's behalf, our loyal and full support. We unite to say as one man, "Long live Garveyism." DAVID WARREN, Reporter.
NUEVITAS, CUBA
The Nuevitas Division, No. 42, held its regular mass meeting on Sunday evening, July 29. In the absence of the chaplain, Mr. W. H. Bolton, president, took care of the religious part of the program. At 9 P. M. the meeting was called to order with the singing of hymn No. 317 from the ritual. Scripture lesson was read from Psalms. After a short comment by the president, the religious part of the program was terminated by the singing of a hymn. The program continued as follows:—Song by the choir, "Africa Awaken"; reading of the front page of The Negro World by the executive secretary, Mr. J. C. Pitter; solo by Miss V. Allison; address, Master Antonio James; song by choir, "Press On." After the receipts of the evening were announced by the secretary the president in his enthusiastic way urged the members to rally to the call, and help the president-general financially to carry this program through in Europe. Much congratulations must be given to the choirmaster, Mr. B. M. Stephenson, and his efficient staff, who have left no stone unturned to bring this division to the highest mark. The first verse of the Ethiopian National Anthem brought the meeting to a close.

New Orleans Division, No. 149, U. N. I. A., staged a wonderful mass meeting on Sunday night, July 29, 1928, at Liberty Hall, 2919 Danniel Street. The meeting opened in its usual manner with the Legiona, Motor Corps and Black Cross Nurses opening ranks while the choir chanted "Shine On Eternal Light."

In his address Mr. Green stated for us to continue praying to God and hold out to the end, for the worst has yet to come; but to always remember that in a dark cloud there is often a silver lining. Offering lifted. Announcements and singing of the Ethiopian National anthem, followed by benediction by the president brought the meeting to a close.

CINCINNATI, OHIO
Sunday, July 29, 1928, will remain indelible in the minds of that host of members and friends of the Universal Negro Improvement Association of Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus, who journeyed to Niagara Falls to see a part of that magnificent work of nature. I say a part because Niagara cannot be seen in a day; it is an ever-shifting spectacle. We have yet to visit a place more beautiful; every hour brings to view some new beauty or added charm.
Much credit is to be given Sir William Ware, president of the Cincinnati Division and also our high commissioner, for making it possible for us to take this wonderful trip, and for making same, with the aid of the other officers of the division, a phenomenal success financially.
I must also remind you that Commissioner J. A. Craigen, that stalwart exponent of Garveyism, was also in Niagara with a host of members and friends of the Detroit Division. Commissioners Ware and Craigen believe in putting over big projects in their respective divisions for the best interest of all.

We regret to report the death of Mrs. Druclia Kelly, beloved mother of our faithful and tried First Lady Vice-President and Reporter, Miss Adelia Mrs. Kelly, though alling quite a while, did not appear seriously till about four or five hours, before her death. She passed away quietly at 8 a.m., July 16, in the home of her beloved daughter Adelia, at the age of 79 years, leaving six daughters, three sons and many grandchildren to mourn her loss. The La'Celia Division begins to tender through this medium its deepest sympathy to the bereaved family, particularly Miss Adelia Kelly, THOR, C. MILLER, Reporter.

INVOCATION
Lord, let me never settle down!
Though in one house, one job, one town,
My commonplace career be spent;
Save me from smugness and content.
Help me in each new day to find
A fresh adventure for my mind,
And to retain within my breast
Something of Youth's unsated rest.
Lord, let me never settle down,
Nor let my eager wonder drown
In some smooth, placid, sluggish stream
Of mere existence. Help me dream,
And seek and yearn and dream again—
In heart, at least, like bolder men
Who roam the sphere and know not peace,
Nor want it, till their wanderings cease.
Keep evermore alive in me
That joyous curiosity
Which keeps young men and all aglow
To hear, to see, to feel, to know!
Thus, though toil grind me in its mill,
Life shall be full of glamour still,
Whether fate smile on me, or frown,
Lord, let me never settle down!

ZEMUK AH LODERTONER,
Hom. J. A. Craigen Appeals for Small Balance Necessary to Complete Payment of Expenses for Successful Representation of U. N. I. A. Members in Florida Case
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 Garvey 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 Garvey, did show that Green and Nemo were agents of his. Notwithstanding that, they were acquitted.
On behalf of Claude Green and I. B. Nemo and on behalf of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the Hon. E. B. Knox and the Universal Negro Improvement 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,
1516 Russell St. J. A. CRAIGEN, High Commissioner,
Detroit, Mich. Mich., Wis, and Minnesota.

CHICAGO, July 26—With the population of the earth one hundred times greater than the eighteen billions now consuming food, chemists say they will be prepared to feed the myriads, and there need be no war, pestilence or Malthusian theory to kill them off. Dr. H. E. Barnard, a food expert, told the other chemists at today's session in the Northwestern University about it.
"When the need comes, the chemist will convert the light of the sun and the nitrogen of the air into food for the human family. Thirty men work-

ing in a factory the size of a city block can produce in the forms of yeast as much food as 1,000 men filling 57,000 acres under ordinary agricultural conditions.
"The world population, therefore, is not so much dependent upon the availability of a food supply, as of standing room. If the rate of population increase doesn't start falling within the next 500 years or so, there will be hardly any more than a square yard of arable land per person."
In time, Dr. Barnard deducted, there may not be enough room to stand. What will happen then is conjectural, but one thing the chemist believes, "the food supply of the future, whether it be synthesized in the laboratory, produced under a highly intensified system of agriculture or netted from
the pastures of the sea, will not be limited.
"There's no telling just how changed an organism man may be in 10,000 years from now," said the chemist. "He may live differently. And he certainly will eat differently."

Building Bigger Ships
Bigger and bigger grow the trans-Atlantic liners. When, twenty years ago, the Mauretania and the Lusitania were built, their 30,000 tons gross seemed prodigious and their speed a marvel. The fact that the Mauretania is still the fastest ship afloat is due less to the difficulty of surpassing her speed than to the apparent lack of a demand sufficiently large to pay the higher fares necessary for faster ocean travelling. For steamships are not built to make records unless thereby they can also make money. On the other hand, steamships of increased also seem to mean increased earnings, for in the last twenty years new vessels have been getting larger and larger, until in the Leviathan and the Majestic the tonnage of the Mauretania was almost doubled. Just as large units are the most profitable for houses and offices ashore, so big vessels offer the most profitable means, for supplying the public with the luxurious and complicated appointments at sea, for which there seems to be an ever-increasing demand. The Leviathan was completed in 1914 and the Majestic went into service seven years later, so that it is not strange that a larger vessel than either has now been begun.—The Nation.

SECURE THIS DOOR
Cheltenham, England, Aug. 4.--One of the strangest investigations of all times is being carried on here by the Rev. John Ambrose Wilson, an alumnue of Queen's College, Oxford. Mr. Wilson is seeking to prove that Jonah was not telling a fish story and that he really inhabited a whale for a while. Since the publication of an article in "The Princeton Theological Review," Mr. Wilson has been delved with letters giving him further evidence for his theory that it was physically, biologically and otherwise possible for Jonah to have lived three days inside the whale. The English clergyman now is preparing another article to confirm the first.
He maintains that Jonah was not the only person swallowed by a whale. He cited two other cases, one of recent times. Recently, however, his attention has been called by correspondents to possible additional cases, which he is investigating. He likewise is looking up more confirmatory facts on the two cases already cited.
"I wouldn't advise anyone else to try to book passage on a whale." Mr. Wilson said. "He would find the mammal's stomach a pretty hot place. The heat within the whale has been estimated at 104 degrees Fahrenheit.
"When James Bartley, one of the crew of the whaler Star of the East, was swallowed by a whale in 1691, near the Falkland Islands, he emerged the next day, after his shipmates had captured the whale, with his hands, face and neck permanently bleached a sickly white. This was caused by the whale's gastric juices. Bartley said, moreover, that the terrific heat in the whale's belly seemed to deprive him of all vitality."
The second instance upon which Mr. Wilson relies is that of Marshall Jenkins, related by "The Boston Post Bay" in 1771. Jenkins was swallowed by a sperm whale and shortly afterward was thrown out upon the wreckage of his boat. He was bruised, but not seriously injured.
Judge in Chicago Is Held for Murder
CHICAGO, Aug. 3.—Morris Eller, big cog in Mayor Thompson's machine, City Collector, candidate for Sanitary District trustee, and Republican boss of the wicked Twentleth Ward, was indicted today on twenty-three counts, charging conspiracy to murder, to kidnap, to assault, to commit election frauds, and to stuff the payrolls of Cook County and the City of Chicago with his followers' names for criminal purposes.
In the same indictment his son, Emanuel Eller, Judge of the Superior Court, and seventeen aids are accused of the same offenses.

EVERYBODY IS INVITED TO ATTEND
LET'S PUT IT OVER BIG
In his first message to the Philippines Legislature Gov. Gen Stiffson laid special emphasis on the advantages which would occur to the islands from an inflow of American capital. He dwelt at considerable length on the wastefulness of relying so largely on manual labor in the leading insular industries and showed that so long as these antiquated methods prevailed a large part of the population cannot hope to obtain more than the bare means of subsistence.
It does seem anomalous that while so much American capital is flowing to other parts of the world so little of it should be finding its way into the Philippines. In whose development this country has a special interest. But this "special interest" appears to be one of the main obstacles. Rightly or wrongly, the Filipinos fear the inflow of American capital. They fear our economic imperialism, and they fear that the multiplication of American investments will militate against the ultimate independence of the islands. Consequently they have held on to their restrictions upon corporations and upon the holding of land by foreigners, and these do not make the islands an attractive field for the foreign investor.
For this distrust a few overzealous Americans are partly to blame. Witness, for example, the agitation in and out of Congress during the excitement over rubber two years ago to have the southern, or Mohammedan, islands split off from the rest of the Philippine Archipelago, to have their land laws repealed, and to fill them with coole labor for the cultivation of rubber.
Governor Stimson told the Philippine Legislature that he believed "that American capital has learned the unwisdom and the danger of attempting unfairly to exploit the land in which it enters." It is to be hoped that his view is correct, though it is exceptions like the rubber incident which create the most limiting impressions. The Governor General will serve both the islanders and prospective American investors well if he succeeds in developing between them a greater appreciation of the mutuality of their interests.

NOTICE
Olympic Contests
Too Strenuous for
Women, Say French
PARIS, Aug. 6.—That woman has no place in the Olympic Games is the growing sentiment here. It is the general opinion that the competition is much too strenuous for the fair sex. The feeling has been aroused partly by scenes at Amsterdam.
According to a telegram from Amsterdam, during the running of a 400-metre relay race, a Frenchwoman rose from her seat at the stadium and shouted:
"Stop this cruelty."
She kept up this cry while the girl runners were gasping and sobbing at the finish.
Apart from the great physical surch, it is said that the cold weather has been particularly tiring to the women competitors in the games. Many writers in Paris denounce the Olympic Games as being too great a strain on the feminine constitution, and in general express the opinion that girls should not be encouraged to take up athletics at all.
"Games for girls by all means," they say, "they should take up all physical exercises that develop health, grace and harmony, but should shun exhausting efforts for which women are not fitted."
Photographs of some of the women competitors in action have evoked scathing comments:
"See how ugly and distorted they become and their faces are hard and vulgar," exclaims I Oerve, adding:
"Let's not forget the legendary Amazonas of old, who renounced their womanhood in order to fight on equality with men."
