Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting:
Just at this time the representative statesmen of the major nations of the world have been discussing the future possibility of world peace, and Mr. Kellogg, from America, has journeyed to Europe with the intention of having signed a pact to outlaw war. These gentlemen who represent, from their own consciences, not the peoples who really want peace, but the people who are contributing to the world's general dissatisfaction, seem to think that they can deceive the thoughtful majority who know that their efforts are only gestures offered without sincerity for diverting public opinion from the underlying source that creates all disturbances in the world.
The Men Who Make War
Mr. Kellogg knows well that men like Harvey Firestone and the directors of the National City Bank of America, and all the great Trusts' directors of his country, along with those of England, France, Germany, and the other progressive countries of Europe are really doing the things, that of exploiting the lands and values of other peoples, which surely contribute to wars and rumors of wars. When these governments and their commercial imperialists extend their influences into other peoples' countries; as they are still doing in India, Africa, and the countries of Central and South America and elsewhere, how in the name of goodness do they think that they can outlaw war to the point of preventing oppressed peoples from freeing themselves from the great terror that possesses them?
War Like Human Passion
War, like human passion, cannot be legislated against, because no one can tell when it will flare up. The thing to do is to legislate against those irritants that contribute to the making of war. Therefore, what the statesmen should do is to really find a way how they can curb their grafters and thieves from interfering with other peoples' property so that there will be no flaring up of passion nor taking up of arms. With all we have read since the Versailles Peace Conference about peace, it seems almost ridiculous for the statesmen to be still inventing ways and means in annual treaties and pacts when in fact the whole thing could be disposed of by just being honest to everybody. Kellogg and his group may think themselves smart and fooling somebody, but in truth they are only fooling themselves. What the world wants is an honest demonstration of human love.
See the Beam in Your Eye
Let Kellogg and the government he represents make an effort to stop the abuse of the Negro people of America; let them see to it that the Negro gets a fair chance politically, economically and socially and otherwise to develop as an American citizen; let them see to it that no other American citizen lynches, brutalizes or murders another

citizen because of his color; let them see to it that it is as possible for a Negro to become President of the United States as it is for a white man. And let those who control the governments of Great Britain, France, Germany and other major nations see to it that their black citizens receive the same rights as the whites. Give every man, regardless of color, the same chances to rise to higher positions within the Empire. Then and only then will we have everlasting peace, such as is being dreamed of by those who really do not intend that we shall have it.
Allow Africa and India to Develop
Let Africa, India and other black countries develop themselves as they see fit, without being encumbered by a system of exploitation and robbery that saps the vitality, not only of the peoples, but the wealth of the countries, and there will be no cause for discord and discontentment among these peoples, looking forward to that which may disturb the peace of the world. Let the white peoples be honest to themselves. Let France and Germany play their cards on the table. But, may we expect this? Surely not. The germ of revenge is too well-seated in the hearts of these opposing nations and peoples for us to expect that there will be no more wars.
An Appeal to the Negro
I now appeal to the Negro people of the world not to allow yourselves to be persuaded into the belief that there will be no more wars, for Europe today is preparing for the greatest of wars. The war of 1914-18 will only be comparable to a Sunday School picnic as compared to the war that is to come. It is for the Negro to prepare himself mentally, physically and otherwise to grasp his opportunity during the forthcoming war, because it will surely come just as it came to other oppressed people during the last world conflict. Forget that anyone is playing you
fair in the great battle of life, because the truth is that every hand is against you because you are black. I haven't to prove this, because you know it. In America because you are black you suffer, and in every other part of the world you are discriminated against and you suffer because you are black. In Europe; and particularly in Africa, you are robbed, brutalized and murdered and everything you possess is taken away from you because you are black, so you can see that it depends upon your own ability that you become free and be respected as a man like other men in the world.
Continue to prepare yourselves and seek every opportunity, but don't you believe for one minute that there is going to be any peace in the world until real human love is demonstrated. Human nature is not made that way. We have had internal conflicts just because man has been unjust to his fellow man. Selfish men, plunderers, men without souls or consciences, will not stop for a minute to think of the peoples they are exploiting. Firestone will not stop for a minute to think about human love and world peace if it is possible for him to make a billion dollars a year out of his rubber scheme by robbing the natives of Liberia. The industrialists and capitalists in Haiti will not stop for a minute to think about human love as long as they can grind another billion dollars out of the poor serfs of Haiti who have sweated and bled and died for the enrichment of white men who control their destiny and their lives.
So also you will find the same attitude in other countries of the world, particularly India, where hundreds of millions of human beings are exploited so as to contribute to the wealth of white men who live in luxury and who invent the idea of outlawing war when they begin to think that there is any possible way for these people to free themselves through such an agency. It is impossible for these men not to know that the thing is ridiculous from the way they are handling it.
We want peace, we want everlasting peace, but we must first have universal justice to all mankind. We hope for the time to come when we shall all be able to shake hands and enjoy peace, perfect peace by being equal and by being just.
With very best wishes, I have the honor to be
Your Obedient Servant,

S" THE PHILOSOPHY of
MARCUS GARVEY
On Sunday, September 2, Garvey Day was celebrated in noteworthy style by the New York branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Liberty Hall was filled to capacity at the night mass meeting on which occasion the Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President-General, delivered a stirring address, which is given in full below.
Hon. E. B. Knox spoke as follows: I am very delighted to meet you on another Garvey Day. The first Sunday in the month we dedicate to the memory of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and we pay homage to him on that day. We also, on Garvey Day, reaffirm our faith in the foundation principles of the Garvey Movement, and we renew our hope in the ultimate triumph of this great organization and the 400,000,000 Negroes in the putting over of this mighty program.
For many, memory confirms the Negro has been a victim of circumstance, not a natural but an artificial circumstance. Whatever the winds of circumstance blew him the accepted it without a murmur. But at this day and time the Negro has come to the parting of the ways. He is telling all the powers that he that he is at the point now where he must take his decision in his own hands.
The spirit of Garvey Day has been at work in Harlem in a very practical way. We have sought to make our power and influence felt in behalf of the Negroes of this city, an account of which appeared in one of the weekly papers last week, the Amsterdam News. We want to compliment them for the courageous stand
We have trusted the power that beats the white man, for a long, long time. We have trusted leaders that he picked for us. They have deceived us, one after another. For nearly a hundred years in the Western world we print all kinds of sacricles that have resulted in this power that the white man enjoys today. But we are tired now. Our banks have stood all that we can stand. Our minds are working now—thinking in our own defense, in our own position. And the greatest solution, in our opinion, the only solution in which we have confidence in the (fearless) Negro Improvement Association (Hear hear).
We want to emphasize the dignity of this organization tonight. We want to make it plain to the Negro of this community in some respect that you are enjoying the dignity that has been conferred upon the Negro people all over the world by the Hon. Marces Garvey and his movement. We want to emphasize the dignity of this organization is benefiting; the Negro even that here in Harlem.
Garvey Will Not Change
I want to call attention to some collisions that are made against the Iran Maraş Garvey and his company. But I want to make it plain that regardless of who criticizes and how they criticize, regardless of what is sold and who says it, the Universal Negro Improvement Association is an organization being led by a leader that will not compromise, will not change his course of action, will not alter or modify his program, in any respect, regardless of what a white man or any other man says about it.
A New Spirit
We want to make it plain that this Universal Negro Improvement Association is born of a new spirit among Negroes. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is based upon a settlement in the because of black men and women that has taken into account all of the modes of treatment that we have suffered in the past, and it has installed within us a courage and a determination to face unhilified and a determination to face unhilified and a determination to face unhilified in the future. We are determined to go through; we are determined to put the program over. Complimenting the Amsterdam News During the past few days there have

been developments there in this city that have been somewhat trying in their nature. The spirit of Garveyism has been at work in Hurief in a very practical way. We have sought to make our power and influence felt in behalf of the Negroes of this city, an account of which appeared in one of the weekly papers last week, the *Journal of Negro Life*. In addition, them for the courageous stand they have taken in helping the Universal Negro Improvement Association to make the principles of Garveyism more effective in this community. We are glad to see them courageous enough to come out on the issue, they have. You cannot always, find Negroes who have the courage to support the Universal Negro Improvement Association. They are too weak in the knee. They flinch because of the bluff that the white man has put those people who constitute the organization, the leader that leads the organization have made courage among Negroes famous all over the world. That is our birthmark, courage. We are not afraid, we do not flinch—just being straight to the line according to the program of this organization. Our Constitution says that Negroes in all communities, wherever they may be, should unite for their benefit in their particular community. That is provided in our Constitution. The Universal Negro improvement organization will chapter a small chapter off in some corner, whether it be a small division down in Dixie, wherever there is a group of Garveyes, we are going to make effective the principles of the movement.
Wild Talk
In seeking to do that in Harlem we have incurred the emity—didn't just injure the emity of the power-that-be, but they thought that we were dead, that the Universal Negro Improvement Association had become of no consequence. But when the police started out here brutifying Negroes and the Universal Negro Improvement Association came to the front for the Negroes, the powers-that-be downtown in the governmental departments found out that the United Negro Improvement Association was still on the scene of arson. One district attorney even went so far in to say that the organization ought to be broken up, that we are opposed to Negroism, that we talk contrary to the Constitution of the United States of America; told the judge that they ought to break us up; ought to deport all of us. (Lauzette.)
"When We Come Back"
If they mean they are going to send us to the land of our fathers (applique) we are ready to for their fathers we are ready to be deported there immediately (applique). Now, I will guarantee 'that when we come back, we won't come back as slaves, neither will they have to bring us back. But when we come back we will come back in the game dignity that France comes over here when she comes; we will comic back in the same dignity that the Mayor of Southampton comes in. That is the way we will come back if they deport us, and we will come back all at once.
Strange and Peculiar
But there is a peculiar and strange aspect of this incident that I want to call your attention to. As long as Negroes are willing to be treated in any way and not raise their voices against anything, but just submit to every kind of domnable condition that the white man cares to heap upon him, then he is in all right. They do not have to deport him, they don't have to do anything—just kick him about and give him what he needs, in their opinion. But when the Negro gets ready and stands up upon his feet like a man, he defends himself to the fullest extent of his ability, then he becomes a "hungry ground Negro." He is in a bad Negro's life, so he is doomed with pain.
I just want to show you how powerful they are. Negroes have been used to control and dominate the community, and they are extremely powerful when people around them talk about the Constitution of the United States could be made good. Some of the leading newspapers in the United States could be made good.
Moving Tale of Rape and Murder of Negro Girls in South
WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. — Negro voters can turn the national election in the doubtful border States. Hence the doubtful states are scurrying about trying to devise ways and means to make the colored vote safe for Hower or Smith, as the case may be. Republicans have reason to fear, a revolt at the polls in some Northern cities, where Negroes in the past have voted with almost automatic regularity for the G. O. P. candidates. These changed conditions are laid to be due to younger radicals of the race, who are preaching to their followers that the Republican party has long exploited them by taking their votes without doing anything in return to justify the boast of "Lincoln's party." Quick to take advantage of this discontent, Democrats are going out for the first time with an almost nationwide organization to catch these racial ballots.
Three Fronts in Fight
According to the campaign strategists on both sides, there are three fronts in this battle: Industrial centers of the North, such as New York, Chicago and Indianapolis; border states, including Missouri and its St. Louis colored belt, and, of less importance because of so-called disfranchising because of the lack of representation in North Carolina, where election returns may conceivably be close.
The Republican and Democratic problem in the Industrial areas of the North, is both political and economic. To meet racial discontent this year, they find they must pledge not only adequate political representation, but also protection for the welfare of the Negro workers who are becoming class conscious.
Unfortunately for the politicians, the black community and that the very pre-requisite required to capture the Negro vote is the kind that will lose white votes in the doubtful border and Southern States.
In the North, Republicans are trying to sell their ticket on the basis of being the traditional party of the Negro, committed to championing his equality of rights. But with Hoover trying to crush the Lord's States and load the G. O. P. into the solid South for the first time, Republicans and their worst obstacle the Democratic warning to bowale of the "Negro's party.
The situation is becoming no less embarrassing to the Democrats. In the North they want the valuable Negro voter to forget that the party in Congress is dominated by Southern whites. In the South they want the whites to forget the Democratic appeal being made to colored voters above the Mason-Dixon line.
Working For Smith in Harlem. Smith's idea are working Hammond, the New York city bolt. Organizations Include Colored Democracy, led by F. Q. Morton, a Negro municipal employee, and the Smith for President Colored League, under the National Democratic Committee, said to be active in many States.
In Chicago Republicans hope to hold the colored vote by allowing a Negro to succeed the late Martin B. Madison in Congress. Direct political representation by a Negro Congressman is generally recognized by politicians to be the most effective manner of "keeping the colored vote in line," provided this end can not be achieved "less expensively." Not to be outdone in this, the Demo-
New Orleans, La., Sept. 5—John C. Carey, a white night watchman, who is alleged to have raped, on August 7, a young colored girl, age 12, was indicted, for rape by the Orleans parish grand jury last Thursday. The game grand jury returned an indictment of murder against Sam Zion, a young white man, who on July 1 is alleged to have shot and killed Miss Zion, a white girl, age 17, when, it is claimed, just for the fun of the gibing, Zion fired into a group returning from a party.
**Crimes Were Brutal.**
The crime charged against Carey has been pronounced a most reprehensible offender, the victim, accompanied by a friend. Dolores Bolda, age 11, went into a grocery to make a purchase. Carey and another white man seeing the girl alone, left at advance of them and hid in some tall beds nearby. When the girl passed on their way home, Carey is alleged, at the point of a plaid shirt, that she was in any quercy. The Bolda girl states that she was forced to witness the repentance of her friend.

RULER OF AFGHANISTAN
MODERNIZING WAR FORCE
Tax to Be Levied on All Government Employees to Buy 50,000 Rifles—New Flag Adopted
Kabul, Afghanistan, Sept. 5. — Every government employee must give up a month's pay to raise money for rifles and cartridges for the Afghan army. All other citizens more than fifteen will be forced to contribute five Alghan rupees.
This levy was provided for in a decree railroaded through the all-Afghan National Convention, called the Diljima, by King Ammanullah, who has returned from a grand tour of Europe with a head full of ideas gleaned there.
Appearing before the Diljima, this King announced that the army would hold that 10,000 rifles would be bought in France and added to the 50,000 recently purchased. Fifty million cartridges will be procured to go with the new supply of rifles.
A Deputy representing the capital announced he would contribute 100,000 rupees and called on all merchants of the city to follow his example, at least to the sum of 25,000 rupees.
The King presented other reforms, but when it came to changing the marriage customs the Deputies baked, they refused to pass the new laws, and are for girls to eighteen and that for boys to twenty. As in other Eastern countries early marriages, verging on childhood, are customary in Afghanistan.
The former privilege of purchasing siphon from three years of army service was eliminated. The old flag, which was black with a cont of arms, has been abandoned for a new flag of three verticle stripes of black, red and green. The old black emblem was the symbol of Afghanistan when we were a dependent country under foreign oppression," said King Amanullah. "In the new flag black represents our past, red the blood shed for independence, and the green is a symbol of our wealth and hopes for the future."
League Court Reports
249 Disputes Settled
Geneva, Sept. 7. —The ever increasing juridification of the League of Nations. Permanent Court of International Justice was demonstrated today in a report of the secretariat on recent international disputes that had been settled.
The secretariat reported that 249 treaties had been signed providing that all disputes, which necessitated treaty, had been settled by the Hague court.
Twenty-eight States have signed a clause accepting the compulsory jurisdiction of the Hague court in settlement of disputes.

Indicated for Murder of Woman
Women Home Widow Down
In Her Home by Band of
Hooded Men
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Sept. 5.
Four white men had been indicted
here Saturday in connection with the
lynching of Mrs. Lillie Cobb at her
home in Blount County Sunday, April
25, 1926, by a band of masked and
hooded men, said to be klansman.
Prosecution to the fullest extent of
the law will be asked in the case, said
Attorney General McCall.
"We have been working on this case out of Omeenta since the Caloway fogging trials there last year," McCall said. "The evidence presented to the Blount County Grand Jury this week represents the material accumulated by operatives out of this office since those trials."
Four Men Indicted
The four, men indicted are John Wade, reputed former excalpels of the Omeenta in Omeenta. Enoch Enchy and Joe Harris. All four are held in the Blount County Jail at Omeenta without bond on charges of murder. Their trial dates will be set later.
Edgar Moses, who is also an alleged, member of the band which invaded the Cobb home, was indicted some time ago in connection with the killing. His trial is slated for Wednesday in the Blount Circuit Court.
Little Cobb was slain when a band of grazed and robed men invaded her home, peppering the house with bullets. He was the husband of the slain woman, returned their fire. Shortly afterwards Cobb disappeared.
Refused to Return
Though Cobb has steadfastly refused to return to the section where his wife was ablain. It is understood that arrangements have been made for him to be here at the trial.
The Cobb allying was one of a number of flossing expeditionals investigated in Blount County.
Seven men were given sentences in connection with the flossing of Jeff Calloway, a youth. Five of them served their sentences in the Blount County Jail.
Two have appealed their sentences.
National Guard Units In California Composed Of Negroes Now Mooted
National Guard Units In California Composed Of Negroes Now Mooted
SAN PRANCISCO, Calif., Sept. 5. California birds face a fair patriotic precedence over Western States as the result of the inauguration of a movement to establish Negro National Guard units in the state. Only two other states in the county have Negro national guard regiments, Illinois and New York.
Establishment of colored units of the California Guard wherever found practicable was urged by the state officials of the American Legion as the result of action taken by the World War Veterans at their recent State Convention. Many of the organizations that served with credit in the military forces of the United States, including American Legion paws have been persistent in their demands for colored national guardmen in the state. State Commander N. Belgrano, in an explanation of the Legion's stand, brought it out that some real recognition is due the colored military holder because of the great service they rendered their country in the World War.

"Boston had gone to the home of a Calvert street family, and persuaded the little girl to come to his home under the pretext of employing her to help his wife. Instead he carried her to a stable on Selma street, forcing her into a stall, and criminally assaulted her.
Police were notified and Boston were arrested. He is held for the September Superior Court. A physician's examination of the girl substantiated the charge brought against the white man. Boston, who it is believed, is going about under an assumed name, is about 36 years old."
On a Lonely Road
DURHAM, N. C., Sept. 3.—Charges of criminal assault against Henry N. McGee, 38-year-old white man of Orange county, who attacked Little Mia Rose Boll Hickle, 15, on Cole Mill Road, a few miles outside of the city last week, have been charged in corral knowledge of a girl under age. McGee was driving down the road when he hit a boy during her low conesistance, when he hit and pummeled her head. While charged for the assault, McGee was accused of killing the boy and driving her home. The girl, however, was hit by the car. She was hospitalized. The girl was taken to the city.
LONDON, Sept. 3. The Prince of Wales is going to Africa tomorrow to hunt big game. He is going ostensibly as Great Britain's beloved sportsman and purely in a private capacity to camp in the jungles and experience the thrill of bringing down dangerous beasts with his rifle. Actually, he is going out to participate as a member of the royal family, with the British Government in a major operation of statesmanship, namely, development of a new Colonial Empire to replace the one lost when the Dominions came of age.
This governmental adventure is one for which preparations have been made in planning to袭入 the Prince's packer station, a personal longings in York House. It has been a matter for discussion in the Cabinet, at Buckingham Palace, at the Colonial Office, in the Board of Trade, and particularly in conference between statesman and England's great newspaper powers since Colonial L.

This British drive to develop Tanganyikil is bound to interest him, which has not yet given up a hope of getting the most mandated territory returned.

Vanguard Already Gone
Vanguard Already Gone
Several years ago several star reporters of the greatest London papers started the exodus of important persons toward Africa. About the same time fashionable men and women went to Africa to photograph the pictorial weeklies at this time of year basking on the sands at Deauville, began buying tickets for Kenya Colony, Solomons of wealth here have begun to buy ranches in Kenya much as they used to do in Canada and South Africa:
The Prince of Wales goes tomorrow with his brother, the Duke of Gloucester, guns, tents, tropical wardrobe and retinue. In American terms the great "ballyhoo" has begun. The attention of the British emigrants will be drawn during the next six months to the potentialities of the colonies that are as against those of the colonies that used to be. The colonies that used to be have become independent nations. While retention of their association in the British Commonwealth will be one of the major occupations of British statesmen, it is recognized here that they are no longer part of the empire as the world has always understood the meaning of the word empire. They are no longer under control: British Sway is Continental. Practical business men like to have their principal enterprises thoroughly controlled with the business men for common ends, but the bulk of their labor and risk is likely to be where they have absolute command.
When Tanganyika Territory—formerly German East Africa—was granted to Great Britain as a mandate after the war, it gave this insular power practically absolute command over a vast territory, including the land from Cairo to the border of the Union of South Africa. Its rule was modified technically in Egypt, but not actually. From Abyssinian south/England's rule is absolute over an unexploded plateau a third of the size of the United States, climatically suitable in large part for the white man's occupancy, with great resources of timber, farm land and mines. And there also is the world's largest diamond mine. "The time has come to pay our principal attention to development of the Crown colonies and protectors," is the word掀 down from the highest British circles. In the coming six months Flight Street is going to blog-sum with special editions and supplements, about the wealth of Uganda, Kenya, Tanganyika and Rhodesia. The country is a British colony and other noted Britons, having the time of their lives in the greatest hunting reserves yet remaining outside civilization.
Mova of Import to America
The more serious publications will tell how Kenya's coffee crop, of the highest quality and increasing fast, ought to rival Brazil's; how Tanganyik's production of sisal and other hemp fibers is jumping annually and awaiting only capital, and how Rhodesian tobacco, is entering the world market.
The fact is that these undeveloped resources, together with Great Britain's often demonstrated ability to pioneer profitfully in distant colonial regions, amply justify enthusiasm about the future of these colonies.
But it is not intricately the wealth of Uganda's cotton crop or the possibilities of the undeveloped wheat fields of Kenya that make the shift of British policy toward Africa a matter affecting the United States as well as Europe. It is the political conscience.

This British drive to develop Tanganyiky is bound to interest Germany, which has not yet given up hope of gaining independence, united territory turned. The very fact that Britain is turning for major efforts from the independent dominions to the Crown Colonies is bound to have repercussion sooner or later at Ottawa, which is a neighbor of Washington.

India Delegate at Geneva Raps Sex Films in India
Geneca, Sept. 6. At a session of the Social and Humanitarian Committee of the League of Nations today an Indian delegate appeared to discuss the motion picture industry in his country. The cinema is indubiously good for the child, he said, but added that it was a double-device weapon. The film, shown films in which all the passions of pre-nuptial love are displayed. This is bringing about serious consequences and serious steps should be taken. The production of films whose sole object is to make money is something the League of Nations should put a stop to," he said.
Women delegates at the Assembly attended the hearing in force and voiced their satisfaction that he had made a decision. It was learned that an educational cinema Institute, which Italy proposes to found under the auspices of the League of Nations, would include a woman on its governing board.
Southern Negroes Seek To Run for Congress
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9 — Southern Negroes are manifesting a keen interest in the 1925 campaign. A delegation of Virginia Negroes is organizing a movement to nominate three Negro leaders for Congress in the second, third, and fourth rounds. W. B. Crowell of Roxonok, Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythagore Joshua N. Polhard of Richmond, Thomas H. Reid of Portsmouth and P. B. Young of Norfolk came here last week to confer with C. Bascom Sloane and other Virginia Republican leaders with a view to outlining a definite plan. Minneapolis Lankford is a candidate for the nomination in the second, or Norfolk, and W. B. Crowell is being urged to run in the Roxonok district.

LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, Sunday Night, September 2. The weekly mass meeting of the New York branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association again furnished ample testimony of the great abiding faith of the masses in the principles and programme of the organization in its noble endeavor to liberate the Negro people of the world from thraldom. A crowded hall. Enthusiasm at high pitch. Men, women and children, serious-faced, drinking in the inspirational tonic served up by their leaders and cheering their account of the achievements of the Hon. Marcus Garvey to the echo. Such was the scene.
The principal speaker was the Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President-General, who delivered an eloquent and thoughtful address on the new hysteria manifest among the great Powers in their treatment of things African. Hon. M. L. T. Ebimber, Asst. International Organizer, also spoke with great effect, while the other speaker was Miss Ethel Collins, the energetic 2nd Lady Vice-President of the New York Local.
The proceedings, which were under the direction of Mr. J. H. Miller, 1st Vice-President of the New York Local, were enlivened by several musical items, the Universal Band and Choir playing a prominent part...
MME. M. L. T. EBIMBER'S ADDRESS
Mme. M. L. T. Ebimber, Assistant International Organizer, said that day had been particularly set apart by the Hon. Marcus Garvey for the purpose of securing contributions toward the purchase of a printing plant in connection with the starting of The Black Man, a daily newspaper, which was to play a part in the putting over of the African redemption program by placing the slims and objects of the association before the nations of the world in their proper light.
your hearts and minds all trained on one thing—a better livelihood, equality and justice. Garvey sends you a message. He tells you that we are going to have a daily paper. Some people say it is a very expensive undertaking. Can you keep it up? And right away as they say so their underlying thought is that it is impossible. But, thank God, since Garvey has given you the new vision, has instilled courage and determination in you, nothing is accounted impossible to the Negro of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The Black Man must be
"The Black Man"
After reading a letter which had been sent by the Hon. Marcus Garvey to the secretary of the division, Mme. Ebimber invited those desirous of making special contributions to come forward to the clerks' tables and tender their donations and sign their names with their addresses on blanks that had been provided. She said it was the intention of the Hon. Marcus Garvey to leave Europe for Canada on the 11th of October and it was necessary that all moneys donated for the printing plant, according to the leader's instructions, be sent immediately to London headquarters so that the machinery could be bought.
The Eucharistic Congress
Proceeding, Mme. Ebimber called attention to the Eupharistic Congress which was in session in Australia, attended by 150,000 delegates. They could be sure, she told her hearers, that when so many delegates assembled to discuss affairs something of importance impended, and, she drove home, if 150,000 white men in 1925 could assemble to discuss the things that concerned whether religiously, politically, economically or industrially, she saw no reason why Negroes should not readily seize the opportunity, as directed by their famous leader, to meet in conference in 1929 in large and representative numbers to discuss the great future of 460,000-000 Negroes.
"Are you working toward that end?" she asked. "Are you looking forward toward the furtherance of our great ideals. Do you not note that Great Britain today is girding up her jobs and her political parties are reaching out for the 292,000 new enfranchised voters, only 16,000 of whom are men? And does it not occur to you that if Great Britain can be concerned over the disposition of 292,000 new votes that we in America, 15,000,000 people, representing many times that number of votes, should be taking thought politically?
Nothing Is Impossible
"As you sit here tonight you represent force and power. And why? Because you are here by the hundreds.

HON. E. B. KNOX'S ADDRESS
Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President-General, spoke as follows:
I am glad to greet you after having held a successful mass meeting in New Haven, from which division I bring you greetings.
The Stir About Africa
I am quite sure that all thinking men and women are very cognizant of the rising stir among the nations of the world over the African question, and especially the Colonial Powers of Europe. Also in some quarters of America you will find signs of excitement about Africa, especially Liberia. The thing that has caused this recent excitement is the appearance of the Hon. Marcus Garvey in the midst of the Powers of Europe and his noble, and bold representation of the case of the Negroes for international readjustment.
Justice Must Prevail
The world has learned through bitter suffering, in blood and tears, that justice always prevails. But we find that the powers-that-be are not yet ready to mete out justice to the black man. His rights and privileges are circumscribed all over the world. The very civilization that he has fought, suffered and died to help establish has turned a cold shoulder toward him, ignoring the lessons of their own experience that it always pays to do the right thing. Having reconciled themselves to this proposition of treating the Negro unjustly all over the world, they have become suddenly startled at the stamina inculcated in Negroes by the Hon. Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association that makes the Negro stand up on his feet and tell the world, "I realize that God created of one blood all nations to dwell on the face of the earth, therefore I am as capable as anybody else of taking my destiny in my own hands, making a place in the sun for myself regardless of whether anybody helps me or whether anybody likes it." (Applause.)
Trying To Stem The Avalanche
For the Negro people of the world to assert themselves like that creates a new line of thought on the part of those that are ruling the world at this day and time. So here and there you see steps being taken, that have grown out of their excited attitude, to try to thwart the future progress of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Hence you see Great Britain pushing the Prince of Wales off to Africa to further inspire or to further deceive and, beguile the native, chiefs of Africa into submitting themselves to oppressive policies of the colonial government. Out of this excitement you see America meting out injustice to the people of the South down here, to the people of St. Thomas—the Virgin Islands, now a protectorate of America, and to the people of Haiti. They are doing this to try to stem the great avalanche of justice that has been brought on by the Haiti. Marques Garvey and which is breaking down the barriers one by one that are raised up in front of the Negro's progress.
A Chancellor's Game.
Will Not Suffer Abuse
But we are not going to play any attention to the wild and prejudiced statements of district attorneys or anybody else. Our blood bots when a Negro is mistreated and when we realize that there is little or no redress, and we are not going to stand by silently and see our fellows abused for no reason whatsoever. If they can find room enough to put us all in jail, we are ready to let them know that there are thousands of men and women in Harlem who are ready to go to jail.
Will Sacrifice for Freedom
Yes, they are all excited now. These Garvibites out here getting stirred up! We are going to be stirred up from now on. The sweetest thing in the world is freedom. We feel like making just as great sacrifices for freedom right now as Patrick Henry was willing to do when he stood in the Virginia legislature in 1775 and told them to give him freedom or give him death. We feel, tonight that we are willing and ready to make any kind of a sacrifice to uphold the principles of this organization that shall ultimately bring freedom to the Negro people of the world. Yes, we have suffered much, but, as I said before, we have come to the parting of the ways. The course we used to pursue we have abandoned.
A Mistaken Notion ....
The Universal Negro Improvement Association is a shining light over the future path we shall tread toward the goal of the redemption of our motherland. Africa is becoming prominent now. The white man lied to the Negro a long time, trying to keep his attention away from Africa. But in ten years our great leader has brought the truth to light, given it to Negroes all over the world, and as a result thereof they are manifesting an interest in Africa that is amazing and startling to the white man. Why, they thought that they had our destiny sealed. They thought that the Negro would never conceive this proposition of nationhood. They thought that we would forever be content with just any tiny little thing that they dished out to us. That is what the white man felt.
Upset the Plan
The thought that we were just going along contented, that they would never have to worry about these Negroes. We have them doing just what we want them to do—we have got them fighting among themselves; we have got them interested in nothing but a starry heaven; got them getting salvation and fighting among themselves and going to Heaven on Sundays. They thought that we would be content with that all the rest of our lives, but, behold, here comes a lender that tells the Negro people of the world Heaven will take care of itself; you look after things down here. (Appease.) Don't worry, so much about dying, because you have to die. It is a natural consequence; it is something that happens in the life of every animatical thing. Heaven itself is going to pass away. Don't worry about that. Just try to do right down here. And that upset the white man's whole program.
Will Be United
A Negro telling Negroes about government! Telling Negroes about nationhood! Making Negroes, want to fight for one another, just like we do! Why, that will never do! And so they have started out to try to stop it, when the very government of which they boat is founded upon the labors of our forefathers. We want to tell them now in no uncertain terms, don't worry about our little fighting and blockerings that we have, sometimes among ourselves. We have been scattered apart and have been asleep such a long time that, in trying to get together, sometimes a rattling noise is heard. Don't worry about that. We will be a united race after a while, and when we are united the widest stretch of your imagination cannot conceive of what we will be and what we will do.
Will Not Flinch
The Universal Negro Improvement Association is the only organization that lives up to its ideals, lives up to its motto, lives up to its aima and objects, and that is why they make so much hullabaloo about it. That is why the white. man takes it seriously. We are the only organization that tries to do what it purposes to do, or report to God the reason why. We will, not slimly when duty confronts us. We will not allow the principles of this organisation to be transfused upon.
Plans for the Future
In these latter days we have taken on new courage. We are just getting ready to launch a new phase of this great programme. We have accomplished much in the last year, but we have done nothing compared to what we will do within the next 12 or 18 months. We are making preparations for a great international touring programme in Tennessee, Georgia, in North Carolina, a new course from more than twenty applications of old programmes and latest in preparation for the programme. We are making preparations for the new programme in Tennessee, Georgia, in North Carolina, a new course from more than twenty applications of old programmes and latest in preparation for the programme.
Everybody that reads the current paper and writes the white man deep down admires Africa, and the attitude that African are, is largely bound the mind to the power. "Philosophy" the particular in this talk about America ought to see the handwriting on the wall. When you see white people talking about Africa, trying to apologize for their abuse in Africa. I think that ought to be the handwriting on the wall for thinking Negroes. The white man realizes that Africa is just his—he is able to dominate in Africa by accident; just because the natives, some of them, are not awakened to their powers. That is why they don't want the Hon. Marcus Garvey to carry this practical programme into Africa.
When the Giant Awakes
The white man just rules because he runs a few battleships up to the coast, despatches a few officers out there among the natives, talks to the chiefs, and a few million natives will find themselves dominated by five or six white men. Well, the white man knows that if those millions of natives just assembled right they would run him out; if they would just get made and shake themselves the white man would get scared and run out of Africa before the following morning. Therefore, they are getting deeply concerned about Africa. Marcus Garvey has raised a great cry about nationhood. Why is the American white man so afraid of Africa. He claims he has lost nothing over there. He claims he does not want to go there. He is telling you you haven't lost anything over there. Why is he getting excited because somebody is pointing out that he is trying to dominate Africa?
Do you know why? Everybody knows that if the Negro people of the world have a black army in the land of their fathers, a strong government there, you would not have, to band yourselves together here in Harlem to defend Negroes. Negroes would be protected like anybody else, in the same way everybody else is protected. Negroes would be able to shoot somebody. Negroes would be able to stick a sword in somebody. Negroes would be able to have an aeroplane to fly over somebody. And, you know, we have Negroes in Africa that can fly and shoot and use swords and guns and everything.
Not Relying on Promises
So we are not talking about the white man changing his government over here. We have got sense enough to know that he has led, to us for over 300 years, and we have got sense enough not to trust him any longer. He even went so far as to write in his Constitution a certain promise to the Negro citizens of this country, and he has not lived up to the promise one single day. Therefore we have got sense enough to let him and his promises and his Constitutions alone. We are going to prepare ourselves to establish a government of our own, have a flag of our own, write our own constitution, be at home to ourselves, just like he is at home, and when we come over here we will come over here just right.
I like to think about the Universal Negro Improvement. Association and the effect it has had upon Negroes. I love to think about the aspirations it has given birth. I love to think about that strong determination, that love and that race pride that makes Negroes stick together. And when we get together, it makes me feel like to see them getting afraid of us, getting excited, realizing that we are not going to depend on them meeting out to us any special favors, but we are going to make them treat us right.
U. N. I. A. Has Not Changed
Some people told me downtown the other day that they thought the Univ. versal Negro Improvement Association had changed its motto. They said they thought the organization, by reason of what they had heard around on the streets and highways, had abandoned their motto of "One God, One Aim and One Destiny," and had taken as their motto "No God, No Aim and No Destiny." I told them that we were not responsible for what they heard on the streets; the Universal Negro Improvement Association is just the same, will always be the same as it was ten years ago. People have always talked about us. "People have always misunderstood and misrepresented us. People have always said things they should not say, but the principles of the or-

Pluko HAIR DRESSING
AWAYS THE FINEST HAIR DRESSING
I am going to be found doing. Don't you pay any attention to indifference and inscrutiveness, which make me the victim of the film, Shawlane (Carry), or the representation, or anybody else. I know just as much about the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association as any Negro in America. I know what the Universal Negro Improvement Association means better than any Negro here. I know how to interpret it—been doing it; not at the feet of my leader, drank wisdom from the fountain of knowledge, and he sent me here to do his work, and I can do it. (Applause.) And I mean I am going to do it. I don't only know how to deal with Negroes, but I know how to deal with white folks. I don't bite my tongue or scratch my head when talking to anybody. I don't intend to do it. Walk with my shoulders back and my head held high, like: Marcus Garvey, and that is the thing that has them excited.
For Al Smith
And here is another thing that is exciting Negroes: The Universal Negro Improvement Association is voting for Al Smith. We don't care what kind of a party he has got, we are getting ready to let him know we have got a party, too. Our party is the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We vote for men and not parties. We are voting for Al Smith because he is a man of principle, more principle than Herbert Hoover. 'Al Smith has done more for Negroes, and is a more liberal-minded, a more upright man than any man in the Republican party; doesn't let anyone tell him what to do; does the things he wants to do and the things he believes are right. That is why we are voting for him. And we are not voting for him because we believe he is going to do so much in the United States for us. Nobody is fooling us. Neither Republican nor Democratic party can get our minds off Africa. That is the main proposition we have in our minds.
An Inconsistency
It is a hard thing to understand the two-facedness of this white man. He claims that they in Europe are trying to teach the African native how to work. Here is Marcus Garvey with a great African programme just fetching to get in there so he can teach the native how to work and they are doing all they can to keep him from getting in there. There is something wrong somewhere.
Something to Digest
But, Negroes, I want all of you to get this down in your systems and let it abide with you: The Universal Negro Improvement Association is not an organization designed to give religion to Negroes or to take religion away from Negroes. This organization is working to put over the programme of nationhood for Negroes. We have succeeded further than I could explain to you tonight if I talked to you until day after tomorrow. But if you will just have patience, our success will dawn upon you in just a little while. If you will just keep yourselves strong in the movement: if you will just keep your eyes on the program, as Garvey would have you do, realization will come. There have been great happenings in Europe and in Africa about which it would not be politic for me to speak tonight. Garvey has established headquarters for this organization throughout Europe, and in short while, he will be over here in Canada. There are some people who said that the white man to
trying to confine Garvey's activities to Jamaica and not let him go anywhere. But the white man has realized that the more you mistreat Garvey the more hell you bring down on your shoulders, the more determination and solidarity you give to the people who make up this Organization.
Talking About Progress
The white man has been compelled to take this Association seriously. You have several hundred thousands of Negroes assembled now in churches, but the white man isn't thinking about them. He is thinking about what the Garveyites are doing in that hall in Harlem. And why? Because we are like he in. When they meet they talk and discuss what they are going to do. He doesn't get, happy, and get foolish. He doesn't talk about the golden slippers and the long white robes. He talks about long green-backs, high-flying aeroplanes, far-shooting guns, ships that are able to travel 7,000 miles without having to re-

Why the Hurry.?
As a matter of fact, you are hardly in much of a shape to go to Heaven, anyhow. They tell me that when you go to Heaven you have to give an account of what you have done down here. What have Negroes done? What are they doing? Doing nothing but witnessing their blood and kind being brutalized, being cheated out of their rights. Are you in a hurry to go and tell St. Peter that? You should strive to do something down here, and if you will just use your talents and watch the signs of the times, and interpret them correctly, you will see all that Providence is placing in your hands right now.

aircraft gunners. Night after night the attacks and open spaces, gaging in aerospace unmanned aircraft bombed from the air, and London "How thrilling!" gaped some spectators. "Magnificent!" said another "but it isn't war." And this remark sets me thinking that London, with its magnificent buildings, museum replete with treasures, its men of big affairs, and those who control the Empire, could all be blown into "thy kingdom come" in two hours by one solitary aeroplane dropping forty tons of the latest gas on the city. This may seem far-fetched to the average mind, but experts in this line assert that the gases used in the last war are nothing compared with those that have been discovered since by the scientists of all nations. There are gases that def masks: some cause insanity; others are unaffected by climatic changes and capable of remaining at a specific height above the ground and drifting with the wind, leaving desolation behind, while one whiff of certain other gases cause instant death.
Recently there was an accident in a factory at Hamburg, Germany when a cylinder of deadly gas, phosgene, exploded, killing several persons. The gas swept out of the town, over the countryside, cattle were overcome and had to be slaughtered, farmers and their families were stricken; only a change in the wind saved thousands from suffering; yet only a small amount of gas escaped.
escaped.
This incident will give one some idea of the appalling annihilation that will take place when an unprotected city is bombed in the next war. The manufacture of gas is not a costly matter, either, and can be produced simply by the ton. One scientist states:
One of the most modern inventions, and not the worst, is 'diphenylchloroarsine—a fearsome name for a fearsome thing.
One part of this gas in 50,000,000 parts of air is sufficient to kill a man.
One part in 200,000,000 parts of air causes acute and intolerable pain.
The components used for the manufacture of this gas are among the commonest in chemistry—aniline, sodium nitrate, sulphur dioxide, and potassium cyanide.
It can be made in two days at the rate of 100 tons a day with the same plant as used for the making of ordinary dyes.

The principal composition of another terrible gas is common salt, such as used on every dinner table; of another, alcohol.
These brief technical details show that the making of gas for war purposes is a comparatively simple matter. While the conversion of civilian aerosplanes into bombs is still easier to accomplish—just take out the passengers and put in a machine gun; take out the luggage and load up with bombs, and presto! one has a ready-made bomber.
As I write about civilian aerplanes I am reminded of the consternation in the London press today at the revolution that Germany is, about to capture the air route from Ireland right across England to the continent. Such a line would evidently be a financial success, as passengers and mall from the American lmers would be picked up at Queenstown, Ireland, and raced to Europe via Dublin, Liverpool and Hull. Seaplanes from Hull would carry them across the North Sea to Copenhagen, etc.; branch lines will link up with London, Paris, Berlin and Vienna, thereby enabling travelers to gain thirty-six to forty hours on the present schedule. It is said that the idea was originally put up to the British Imperial Airways, and they turned it down, then the great German Aircraft, firm, Junkers, enthusiastically took up the project. It remains to be seen whether the contracts will be signed now that the matter has been aired before the English public, and the possible future consequences made known.
Right on the heels of the above news comes the report, this evening, that a German aircraft manufacturing firm plans to inaugurate air services between Australia and New Zealand; and from Australia to Tasmania. It is claimed that in German representative of the firm in Australia negotiating with the Prime Minister to sanction, and possibly subsidize, the service. Germans are not alone great thinkers but doers, and this is what really counts in this world of rivalry and competition.
Compare last year's aerial achievements of Germany with England's and what do we find? Germany operates 14,500 miles of air routes in Europe, France has 8,800 miles, Britain 1,000 miles, German air liners fly 40,000 miles a day, British aircraft fly 3,000 miles, Germany has 160 air liners potential bombers in commission, England has twenty-one. Yet Germany, is not allowed a military air force. Her victors, England, France, et al, will not permit short; so she spends her money on CVIL AVIATION instead. Benzo Tequinti: You are truly a clever person, and I sincerely hope that Negroes will send their sons to you for training, to enable us as a race to prepare for "the next war" as methodically and systematically as you are doing.

ence the country in how far does marriage benefit anyone who plunges into without giving considering the risks hazards and harmsiness within the Law Courts in the marital branch is fully revealing in the country.
Almost all the cases that go to the divorce courts end in favor of the woman, notwithstanding many gruesome tales of adulteries and wilful wrongs that the poor husband has been subjected to. The grant of alimony is now being looked upon by the women as a lever of tyransizing and provoking their husbands as soon as love begins to fly through the window.
There is something wrong in the whole construction of the marriage ordinance. It makes the men miserable as in all cases of misunderstandings public sympathy goes to the woman and the man is looked upon as a brute.
The English form of marriage is only a fashion to the African. There is nothing religious about it. It is some sort of a license to command public respect and of climbing the social ladder in Christendom. It makes the pair angels in society. They dine and meet equally with the religious and governmental gentry in the land. The craze to marry in the English fashion comes when we find ourselves nearing our objectives in life. At that period we aim to purify ourselves from four existence to what we termed divine institution of holy matrimony and in many cases we choose a frivolous, wicked, talkative, jealous and a dancing girl, thinking all is well, accepting her beauty as a testimonial, when almost of a sudden these characters all begin to show themselves, and like a whirlwind the whole matrimonial structure collapses and falls to the ground with endless quarrels, fightings, police court indictments for injuries inflicted, and latterly to the divorce court—the dramatic stage—where all the sworn hidden things are sorrowfully displayed to a crowded court.
The notion of some of our womenfolk nowadays respecting marriage is for inheritance. They marry with the sole idea of getting pensions, life assurances; buildings, etc. They always pray that the man should die first.
Marriage under native custom is indulged in for procreation and mutual support without any intention by either party of inheritance and all monies.
With these truths now before us who is there to say that marriage under the marriage ordinance with such wicked and heartrending intentions behind it are holy and must be professed at all costs? This is the age of reason, and not only must we reason but speak the whole truth. Marriage regulates all our existence in the world and therefore we must have it free from all mercenary motives. Those who are so far lucky under the present system must not pore about as angels willfully denouncing those who are not lucky in it.

Almost without exception, numerous these writers make any allusion to the Jews in regard to their memory. With their Jews and numerous groups more terms. They seem to think that all Jews are rich. There are a great many rich Jews, but the great majority of them, like the majority of all other people, are poor. In fact, there are Jews who are poor with a poverty quite unknown to Negroes. There exists in the minds of the writers of the look-at-the Jew's school a belief that our case is identical with that of the Jews. That just as the Jews have reached economic prominence, we can do likewise. As far as I am concerned, the similarly begins and ends with the fact that we both have suffered at the hands of the other people, the supposed lords of this civilization.
Who is surprised that the Jews have money? They have been traders for nearly three thousand years, or perhaps more. Not only Negroes should look at them, for they are a lesson to the whole world. They have been a civilising influence on every continent in the world. They were great when there were no kingdoms in Europe. They boasted of their intellectuals when the people of England hardly spoke an intelligible dialect.
From the tents of Kedar they evolved to be the greatest religious teachers the world has seen. And they have laid the foundation of this present Teutonic civilization. Would I be wrong if I were to say that they were the prime cause of the Reformation that was led by Luther? Yes, look at the Jews. But, for once divert your minds from their bank account and try to look at the part that they played in the intellectual development of the world. It is generally conceded that the Jews are the most religious people in the world. They have given two great systems of religion. One of these systems has been accepted by the Negroes of the Western Hemisphere. Hundreds of commentaries have been written on this religion that has been accepted by the Negroes. Yet not one commentary has been written by a Negro.
The question is, are we intellectually incapable, or are we, intellectual cowards? This is a matter for our ministers to answer. Are our ministers theological scholars, or are they merely preachers? This is a field in which we are not hampered. We can have "look at the Jews" to our advantage. They have produced a galaxy of theological scholars that can bear comparison with those of any other member of the white race. We have not produced one. I don't know of a colored preacher who has even written a decent tract. We go to colored churches, but if we are in doubt of anything in the life of Christ, we have to consult a book written by a white man. There is no reason why in a matter of biblical scholarship we should be so far behind.
The fact is we are lacking in intellectual courage. In this case we are not only behind the Jews, but we are behind the whole white race. We are, according to Clarence Darrow, "too blooming plous." We are afraid to doubt, afraid to examine. There is not one colored minister who dares to speak out like Dean Ige, or Canon Barnes. We are the only people who have to depend on another race for an exposition of its faith! It is a shame that even in this matter we have to be dictated to. This fault lies with all of us. The colored papers must demand, a certain intellectual standard from our ministers. They must tell their congregation the results of the latest biblical scholarship. If they don't, we will.
In contemplating the Jews, we find that their greatness does not lie merely in the fact that they are members of the present capitalist system, but rather in the literature that they have given to the world. Early in their history they attempted to answer the great question: "Why are we here, and whither are we going?" They tried to explain man and his relation to the universe. In checking up the Jews, their thinkers will always remain a great heritage to humanity. Who cares to know who was the richest Jew in Jerusalem, or even the richest one in New York today? Capital is necessary, but the capitalist is not. The Jews have done their part in the intellectual development of the world. It is up to us to do ours.

"Lincoln Republicans" Plan Drive for Negro Votes
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—Plain, for Negro support of the inter-racial ticket of Lincoln Republicans—who have nominated Jacob S. Coney for President and Dr. Simon P. W. Drew, colored, of this city, for Vice-President, were announced here today at the Washington headquarters of the new organization. Publicity was given a resolution adopted at a mass meeting in Philadelphia on Labor Day, in which Negroes pledged themselves to
raise $25,000 to further the cause of the Coxey-Drew ticket. The resolution denounced the "Lily White Republican Party." Emphasis was laid on a statement that "this is the first time that a Negro has been named for the office of President of the United States." The assertion was made that Coxey and Drew would have the support of a majority of the 15,000,000 Negroes in this country. "Only a small minority of the Negroes," it was stated, "have bolted the Republican party and the Lily Whites to support Governor Smith."
The death of Teresa Victoria, an African woman of over 130 years, occurred at her residence, Success Village, on June 9 last. She came to this colony from africa many years ago with three children, others were born in St. Lucia and Trinidad. The late Austerlitz Joseph solicitor, was one of her, grandchildren. Three of her daughters are still alive and have seen her fourth generation. It is likely that she has been the oldest liver in this colony for a long time.—Port of Spain, Trinidad, Gazette.
Concerning the above paragraph, Mr. Taiwo Volman, of 2436 Conti Street, New Orleans, writes:
"I have known the old lady for about 25 years and for a little over that period she was blind. It was a surprise to see how she went about her business, her cheerful disposition, her memory for voices and past happenings.
"She was one of the Tāmā tribes and spoke her native tongue, French-Creole and English."

CHENGCHOW, China—Foot blinding here is being stopped by force. Shopkeepers who were "urged" to paint their doors and gates a "Nationalist blue" do not resent the new reforms nearly so much as the young women and girls who have had their tightly wound foot cloths, forcibly removed by the authorities in the street.
In the country districts of Honan province—much trouble has been caused from time to time by an organization called the Mato lao Kul, which has been urging the women to cling to their old-time custom of binding their feet despite all the orders to the contrary by government officials.
This movement was launched by the priests who have been driven from their temples.

On August 21 the Omaht Division of the Universal Negro Improvement As, association met in special session for the purpose of receiving the representative of Hon. E. B. Knox, in the person of Hon. M. Erhain, president of the Chicago Division, who, because of the sudden illness of Mr. Knox, was sent to fill the engagement as our special guest for the evening.
The meeting was opened by singing the National Anthem of the U. N. I. A. "From Greenland's Ice Mountain." Prayer was offered by Dragon L. F. McIntosh of the Mt. Morlah Baptist Church. Song by the congregation, with Mrs. Lydia Owens at the plano. The mass meeting was held at the Mt. Morlah Baptist Church. Twenty-fourth and Ohio streets.
With all the officers of Omaha Division No. 836 in their respective stations, the president, Mr. Harris, gained the house to order and led the membership in reciting the Freamble to the Constitution, giving in detail the aims and objects of the U. N. L. A. and A. C. L. In, America and throughout the world. After opening; exercises, which were conducted by the chaplain, he then introduced Brother N. L. Hunter, manager of the Golden Rule Grocery Store of this city, who acted as master of ceremonies.
The purpose of the meeting was stated in a brief, concise manner by the master of ceremonies, and what the U. N. I. A. should mean in the life of the American Negro was stated in a masterly manner, after which Mr. A. M. Matthews, a deacon of the M. Moriah Baptist Church, was introduced and delivered the welcome address in a cool, deliberate and masterly manner, admonishing the membership of the U. N. I. A. to rest assured that the U. N. I. A. will support and its membership gave to them a whole-hearted welcome and was for them 100 per cent, because of the high ideals sponsored by the U. N. I. A. and its unconditional stand taken in the interest of our people.
Young Mr. Epiphran was introduced by the president and in turn delivered one of the most powerful, practical and prudestly厉害的 ever delivered to an Omanian audience by a man of his years and experience. He commissioned the many acts of service rendered by the American Negro since the days of 1695 and gave in detail the history of his successful advancement and progress made many days of 1855, and made mention of his many contributions to the civilized world from his early history to the present time. Mr. Epiphran made a reasonable and obsequent appeal to the Negroes to organize for their own benefits, and gave to the indolent, skeptical and unbelieving once among us the opportunity to meet at the close of the lecture many new members were added to our roll and we expect many more in the near future. Many other forceful speakers were on the program, who did not hesitate to state that they were for the U. N. L. A. and its program of uptilt. Meeting was closed in regular form. A. B. MATTHEWS—

A beautiful concise program preceded and accompanied the speechmaking, as follows: Mr. J.
