The Negro World

MARCUS GARVEY DISCUSSES SELFISH NATIONALISM OF EUROPEANS AND WARNS RACE OF CONSEQUENCES Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting: If I were to be asked what impressed me most in Europe during my stay, I should reply: "The selfish nationalism of the Europeans." In my study of the different race groups and nations, I have found that the spirit of self-interest, racially and nationally, is most pronounced. In England there is an exclusive selfishness of everything for the Englishman, and we find the same attitude in France, in Germany, in Italy and all the Continental countries of Europe. Racial and Nationalistic When men speak in these parts of the world, they do so only from their racial and nationalistic point of view. The question of humanity is limited by geographical bounds, so that the Negro must be well guarded at this time in accepting the platitudes of international statesmen, because their utterances really are to be interpreted only in the terms of their particular race and nation. It is because the Negro never understood this is why he has grown to be the pitiable child of circumstance today. When some great white teacher or preacher or leader would address a Negro audience or a mixed assembly and talk about our past glory or our future, the Negro would be persuaded to think and believe that he was included in such expressions, but the centuries have revealed to us that such speeches and addresses were not intended for us, but for the race of the speaker generally. And so I have discovered that when the so-called leaders of the day do speak, none of them intend to include the Negro in any promising or hopeful consideration that may be aimed at as a policy to be observed. We must, therefore, develop a racial selfishness and exclusiveness as pronounced as that of the European if we are to overcome the political, economic and social disadvantages that we now suffer from because of misguided belief in others. Think. Pro-Negro Now and Always My advice to Negroes everywhere is to think pro-Negro now and always. Everything in the world must be seen only from the Negro's point of view. You may indulge in the same platitudes as others have indulged in, such as the talk about the larger humanity, the Christian brotherhood, and the rights of all mankind, but practically we must live for ourselves. This is the lesson Europe has taught me. This is the policy of Europeans. If you doubt it, go to England and you will find the Englishman living only for Englishmen; go to France and you will find the Frenchman living only for Frenchmen; go to Germany and you will find the German living only for Germans; go to Italy NEGROES MUST THINK PRO-NEGRO NOW AND ALWAYS "Africa for the Africans" Must Be the First Consideration and Guiding Principle—Negroes Must Exploit the Great Powers That They Undoubtedly Possess and you will find the Italian living only for Italians. The time has come for the Negro to live only for Negroes. It is good that I am not a preacher but a statesman, so that I can afford to give this advice to millions of my race who are suffering with me. If I am accused of being selfish and heartless, then lay the same charge at the door of Monsieur Briand of France, Signor Mussolini of Italy, and at the door of Mr. Lloyd George of England. I have learned to admire these men with more human interest than heretofore; I realize that they are putting into execution that ancient law, "Charity begins at home." Surely charity begins at home for England, for France, for Italy, for Germany, and it is only the foolish Negro who does not realize that charity ought to commence at home in Africa for his own people. Let No Power Persuade Negroes, let no power in the world persuade you about the rights of man when you are to pay the price and others are to reap the benefits. The right of man surely mean that Englishmen ought to look after Englishmen, Frenchmen look after Frenchmen and that Germans should look after Germans and Negroes should look after Negroes. Anything else preached to you from the pulpit or from the press is bunk, so you may listen to it with one ear and let it pass through the other; but set down one principle in your mind, and that is, "Africa for the Africans, those at home and those abroad." Organize to Be a Negro From now onward the Negro must organize to be a Negro. He must live as a Negro; he must struggle as a Negro; he must fight his battles as a Negro, and he must die nobly as a Negro. Standing on such a foundation, we will surely succeed. We are too numerous and too strong to forfeit any claim that we demand. The Negro is potentially strong and powerful; he can do for himself and accomplish much by being determined and persevering Our determination and perseverance will lead in the direction of a solidified race the world over. A Grim Reality What I am saying is no farce, nor any dream; it is a grim reality. Out of vast areas of European lands different groups have created their nations and governments that reflect today their power and glory. The same opportunity invites the Negro in the twentieth century. Africa with her vast resources beckons the Negro to come, to be awakened to the many opportunities that Nature offers in the greatest country in the world. The Negro who was great in centuries gone by shall be great in centuries to come, and so I am urging black men here and everywhere to buckle on the armor of service—service to race and service to Africa. We must do this by being just what we are—Negroes, not Jews, not Anglo-Saxons, not Celts or Teutons, but Negroes. We should be proud of being what we are, because Nature so lovely made us what we are. We shall lift this race of ours to a pinnacle of human service, of human accomplishment, of human dominion that shall make us a power and a great people. Thank God, there is no dishonor in being black! Find in it, men, the honor that Englishmen find in being white, that the German finds in being blonde. The same virtue that others find in their color and in their race, find it in yours. The World Our Stage Let the world be our stage of action. Let Africa be the objective of our concern, and so, whether we be in the West Indies, in America, in Europe or in Asia, or in any section of the world, let us work together under the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green and unite our forces for the welding together of a compact race and for the creating of a national inspiration that shall never die. Be assured that everything that I have written I mean. Everything I have given expression to I have experienced. I am writing to you from the fullness of knowledge. Let no power persuade you to the contrary. You must live for yourselves, with the purpose of clasping the hand of your brother, ignoring from what section of the world he comes, so that both of you may journey on to the great objective—Africa redeemed, the Negro race emancipated everywhere. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be, Your obedient servant, Marvin Sancy President General, Uttlversal Negro Improvement Association Address 76 King Street, Kingston, London, N. 1012 Reformers have arisen in every age and in every country. They are usually not of the type with labels, specifics and catalogues. They deal more in abstractions, and it is those who follow, who work up the religions and the dogmas and the creeds which plague mankind afterwards. Nevertheless, all the while the substance is there. Like eternal truth it never dies. Although Israel is disposed to the four corners of the earth, there is a Jewish sentiment and there is a Jewish nation. And, supposing after the war it had been physically possible to dismember Germany and transport her sons and daughters to the four quarters of the wind, still there would have been a German sentiment and a German nation. And so long as there is an African sentiment among the sons and daughters of Ethiopia the world over there is bound to arise out of the ashes of the past a great African nation. No matter if the odds are at present against her, no matter if the prophets cried lonely in the wilderness, what is sentiment will be translated into a fact, and a great nation will arise. 'But now?' By violence or by constructive co-operation? By powerful method; by mutual understanding, by mutual good-will, shall it be done. It was necessary to arouse the world to a sense of African race consciousness by the unloved method of a Marcus Garvey. But the last word has not been said. Africa is safe. Africa is methodical and is capable of weighing the pros and the cons of the great controversy. That controversy, will not be settled by a sneer and jeers, but by the common sense of mankind, which will appreciate that national ground, cannot be well understood. It is true that our African brethren in America are as much American as any of the several nationalities that make up that composite whole. But, surely, there are thousands, if not millions, of Irishmen, of Jews and of other nationalities in America, born and bred there, in whom the national consciousness is not extinct. Indeed, Irish nationalism is so strong in America that, it has one of its distinctive and effective backings there; and no, in lesser degree, with other nationalities in the United States. Therefore, it is quite natural that there should also be an American so ad a distinctive nationality that voices African opinion, and African aspirations, quite is that fact which brings prominently into view the Marcus Garvey's, the Du Bois and the Kelly Millers of Afro-American life and history. It is true the methods are not the same with all these men, and the outside world may consider all of some of them bionomies, yet in a greater or lesser degree they are voicing the yearnings of a great nation that is to be. Who can say, when African womanhood appeals to European womanhood in the name of a larger humanity for sympathy for the African to develop to the same standard that the European has attained, that that appeal will be in vain? It is true that such an appeal may be considered a mere abstraction. But, then, it is the same sort of thing that appeals to the feminists of the first order, that fright in the after days in a manner never expected. Indeed, the prophets and the scars of old were all abstractionists of the first order. They dreamed dreams and saw visions which, in the days that came after, became potent facts and motive power in a realistic world.

Krim is a veritable 'Nation Napoleon' her "Message" from the Negro women of the world to the women of England: "We greet you in the name of larger humanity, and hope that as the years go we will develop to the standard that you have developed." Is that a vain appeal, and, is it likely that it will go unheeded? Why, there is sound sense in this appeal. The African, in almost every part of the world, has made good in every sphere of human endeavor; his onward, upward progress has been by leaps and bounds. Is it a vain hope that some day, sooner or later, the Negro woman of the Eastern nations of the earth have attained? It is a 'wonderful' truth that the African is a man of peace. He is of the type which turns to you the other check in the language of allegory. And we know that, strange as it may seem in a superficial view, it is only such that will possess the earth in the end. Africa has no standing armies, or navies; on air forces; but she does not need them. She has the soul of goodwill and forbearance and love, which makes her laugh in the face of her very persecutors. Cannot the world see that armies and navies and air forces are but vain things? Why, the violence of the nations fourteen years ago set the hands of the clock of civilization back, and the nations are still suffering from the work of their own hands. No, in the end the world will not be saved by the violent, but by the man of peace; and in this regard he will be found a coworker with God. No Future in Western World No Future in Western World It is again true that there can be no future for the black man in the western world. It is in the inevitable that if the black man lived there from generation after generation he can grasp full opportunity as he would in mother Africa. We know it will be thrown away. We know it will be used of this sentiment that the African-American is as much a stranger in Africa as the European. That is only true in a supernatural sense, because the repatriated Irishman from the American continent can scarcely be said to be a stranger in Ireland. It is true it may take time to get used to his environment, but it is certain that in no time at all he will get no fused with the homeborn Irishman that you can scarcely distinguish them in a generation or two. Therefore, if some of the Africans in America are seriously minded to be repatriated and to settle in Africa, there is no reason why they should not be given scope. And it strikes one that if the League of Nations as to hold the balance of power in Africa, it should not be difficult to give concrete consideration to the prayer for repatriation. If Palestine, or some portion of it, is to be settled by repatriated Jewish settlers, why not some small fragment of Africa by the African? Of course, we live in a practical world, and we must open our eyes to practical considerations, and the most practical consideration of the age is the economical one. The matter would seem to resolve itself to this: Can, and will, the dominant powers give an opening in Africa to Africanists, which may challenge the economical position? Can must, work out his own salvation, and it is not likely that he will remain satisfied for all eternity. British Gas Paralyzes Victim for Six Hours LONDON, Nov. 13.—A British chemist first discovered a weapon, one, which of which is said to cause paroxysms of hiccups, sneezes and coughs which will reduce the victim to helplessness for six hours. It is believed it may be effectively used, in warfare, as it is said to be tasteless and adodess and able to penetrate instantly any known musk.

El Azhar, the thousand-year-old University of Cairo, has the count of Islamic learning and is latter days the method of political integration among the British authorities in Egypt, is to be modernized. This, according to the Egyptian pusam, was decided upon October 1, 2015, by the Grand Sheikh of the University, Mustapha El Maragh, at which he submitted proposals of reform, which were unanimously accepted. The project, which is both general and specific, aims in the first place to transform the institution from a medieval Islamic religious school into a modern university, after European models. In Lord Cr men's day, Sheikh Hussein Al-Musawi talked about things, but was talked out of it by the Ulema. Second, the university will be placed under the control of the Ministry of Education, like other Government schools. Henceforth the Minister of Education will co-operate with the Ulema in drawing up the curriculum for the advanced courses and the examinations. The more specific details, may be summarized on follows: Future students (the primary and secondary courses beginning in October, 1929, and the advanced courses in 1930) shall receive a thorough grounding in modern science, as well as in religion, with a view of their beng appointed lecturers in Islamic institutions on the Koranic law, and judges and preachers in Egypt and other Islamic countries. Also they shall supply Professors of Arabic in the Egyptian schools, who have hitherto been recruited from the Dareulium, or Teachers' Training College. Entrants will be obliged to pass an examination when between 12 and 15 years of age, show proficiency in English, and know half the Koran by heart. There will be a primary course of four years, a secondary of five, and a higher of four, with specialization for two years in certain subjects, including the Arabic language and Islamic religion. Although the meeting at which the reforms were decided upon was called by El Maraught, who also proposed them, it is understood that the idea originated with King Fund, and so, it is concluded, on the initiative of the British Government. The gathering was attended all the high Ulmus, the present Grand Mufft, two former Murtls, a former vice-president of El Azhar and a number of Government officials. In commenting upon the affair the native press calls it a most unusual proceeding, "savoring too much of the reviving influence of Turkey." Month of Rejoicing Marks Crowning of King of Ethiopia LONDON. Nov. 27.—Feasting and repolling in Ethiopia in honor of the coronation of Ras Tafarj as "King of Kings," which has been in progress since October 7, is at last beginning to subside. Reports from the mind fastness of Abyssinia state that the capital city of Addis Ababa for more than a month, has been giving "The Lion of Judahs and Elect of God" a proper send-off on his reign. Virtually every engineer, carpenter, mason and workman of the country was engaged by the government in erecting "Plumphal arches, buildings roads and hanging flasks and decorations at public places. One of the biggest events of the ceremonies was a seven-day feast. There was a continuous stream of cattle, sheep and countless loads of goods and native products from the rural parts to the city for the garment-tun affair. The entire Abyssinian army—and almost every able-built male in the kingdom is a part of the army—was fed. They had to be marched to the banquet board in re- Only the actual heads of foreign legations, were invited to the coronation ceremonies October 7, but neither they nor anybody else saw the actual crowning, as a curtain was drawn about their majesties—the Ras and his dumt, Empress Zaudult. Behind it the empress placed the royal dionom on him, and the emperor himself him the monarch and handed him a sword. Then the curtain was withdrawn and a salute of twenty-one grims was fired.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15—General Jose Monae Moncada, the Liberal candidate who was elected president of Nicaragua on November 4, will be proclaimed president of the republic next month by a Congress in which a majority of Conservatives will be siding, according to a report to the State Department today from Brit. Gen. Frank R. McCoy, President of the American Electoral Mission of Managua. While General Moncada won by a majority of 19,471 out of a total vote of 132,494, the new Congress will have an evenly divided Senate with twelve members, the Conservatives, and a Chamber of Deputies made up of twenty-three Conservatives and twenty Liberals. Under the Nieburgaug Constitution, Congress is the body which proclaims the election of the president, or the basis of reports from the National Board of Elections. Its duties in this respect are described as mandatory. Mr. Schweitzer said in his report today that "presenting the decision of the National Board of Elections will be respected by the Congress." Marines Will Remain The proclamation of the election of General Moncada is expected about December 15, with the inauguration set for January 1. The staff of American advisers will begin to leave for home next week but American marriages will remain in Nicaragua in force until after the election of the new president has been proclaimed and possibly until the inauguration. After that it is expected that marriages will gradually be reduced but not completely retired until new National Guard is ready to take over control of the country. General McCoy's report was in part, as follows: "No instance of disorder on election day occurred in any part of the republic. The stain with which the hunchors of voters were marked was accepted in good humor and no efforts to remove it and vote twice have been reported. Its use was undoubtedly helpful in preventing fraud and inspiring popular acceptance of the results. Majorities Were Decisive "All incoming Senators were elected by decisive majorities, in which challenged votes will, have no significance so far as can be forseen. Of the twenty-five Deputies apparently elected the Liberals have secured seventeen and the Conservatives eight. Two Deputies, however, were elected by majorities of but one vote in each case. The Conservatives have one vote. Conservative from Macedonia, has already been confirmed unanimously by the Departmental Board. "The other election, that of a Liberal Deputy from Granda, has been confirmed by the Departmental Board, but not unanimously and will now come before the National Board." "In view of the apparent decisive majorities reported in all cases but one, the results mentioned above, it be not anticipated that the final review by the National Board will be prolonged." Our reports on the election of Senators and Deputies will be communicated to the preparatory bodies of the respective houses on December 10 and our report on the election of president and vice-president will be presented to the United Congress on or about December 16, the date fixed by the Constitution for its formal installation."

Dr. Moton Appeals For Race Tolerance Before Peace Congress NEW YORK, Nov. 13.—At the general discussion at the final meeting of the International Good-will, Congress conducted by the World Alliance for International Friendship the speakers were Robert Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, and the Rev. Paul Scherer of New York. Mr. Moton dealt with the question of race relationships, which had more to do with the welfare and happiness of the human family, he said, than any other question before the world today. "It will probably surprise you," he said, "to know how deeply the people of Japan, China and India feel on this subject of the white man's ways with the rest of mankind. I am telling no less than you that they were proached by men with large resources behind them who did not hesitate to say that they wanted the Negro in America to make common cause with them in revolting against the tyranny and oppression of the white man in his dealings with other races." The Christian Church, Dr. Scherer declared, had been making the mistake up to now of spending most of her time in laying down rules, "contenting herself with high-sounding pronouncements to the effect that war is unjustifiable except for defense." "There is no decent organization under the sun today," he continued, and if we wish that in that regard our message is distinctive we are mis-taken. The point I want to make is that it is not the church's business primarily to lay down rules. It is the church's business to inculcate the spirit of the Saviour. LAHORE, Ind., Nov. 17 (A. P.)—Lala Lajpat Rai, leader of the Nationalist party in the Indian Legislative Assembly died today of heart disease. He had been one of the foremost among the advocates of nationalism, and was frequently in conflict with the authorities. Lajpat Rai was the author of a resolution calling for the boycott of the commission, investigating the possibilities of a statutory reform, and was one of the leaders of the demonstration against the commission when it arrived at Lahore on October 20. Lived in America Lajpat Rai became noted as the leader of the troubles in the Punjab in 1807. He was deported, and subsequently lived for some years in America, where he wrote numerous books dealing with national political movements in India. He was permitted to return to India, and he became closely amicable with Indianus Gandhi, the Nationalist leader. He was frequently in trouble with the authorities after his return. But succeeded in building up an important following.

The meeting will also aim to mobilize the Negro population of Harlem against what the Congress sees is an effort to use the Negro members of the "Vestris" crew as scapegoats in the investigation of the sea horror being conducted by United States Attorney General Charles H. Tuttle. Several Negro members of the crew will be present. It will be announced at the headquarters of the Congress at 461 Lorenzo Avenue, and Harlemites are invited to turn out on massa to "hear the real facts of the Vespers' horror from the lips of the Negro heroes themselves" and to "acclaim and support the heroes of our Race" as well as, "add your voice to the protest against the slander of the preduced press and take a stand against the evident attempts to railroad these men in order to cover up the criminal negligence of the stewardship company and its officers." Negro Firemen Tell Of Valiant Labors Before Vestris Sank NEW YORK, Nov. 16—Plum Negro firemen who had worked neck deep in water, loudest themselves for two days while feeding under pressure of continual command the four huge boilers in the stokolee of the "Vestris," came explanations yesterday of her snipping. The coal port on the starboard side was portiert when the ship left Hoboken. There was a crevice between the two steel shades of the door, which close like scissors, and the first blow dealt by an angry sea widened it. Finally, the great green shoulders of the sea burst it. This wag the story the firemen 'told as they rolled about yesterday at the Scamens Church Institute, stripped of their dangereous and newly clothed in suits, shiny black and dun colored. They were refreshed from a night's fire, the Pronch tanker "Mylar" as she came up the coast for the harbor and told what they knew freely. "There was a bit of a crack between the halves of the coal port on the starboard side" said, Joshua Ford. "We left port with it that way. It should have been shut tight and locked. When the water began coming in, the German carpenter tried to tighten it. I was there when he tried, and I had to handle of a shovel and a hammer, but the catch broke, and the door just stove, and in a second the water was rushing into the coal burrow." "Keep at It" The stokoleh, deep down in the bottom of the ship, was illumin. Into the mouths of the boilers, big as barrel hoops, the "black gamp" kept heaving coal, spurred by the constant cries of Chief Engineer Adams. "Keep at it!" Adams would shout, according to Ford. "Keep giving it to her!" The force of thirty-six men on the day watch had not left the stokoleh for forty-eight hours, taking their rest where their shovels lay embedded in their water. They were stripped to their waist. They skipped off their shoes. The water gushed above their knees and steadily higher. "There was no use counting on the pumps to pump out the water," Ford said. "Water had swept coal into the big pumps and they became closed. The bunker lifted up and the list had me standing on my head, almost. "This was Sunday morning. I was on watch from four to eight. The outets of pipes that were four feet above water level were drinking in water and shooting it into the stokhole. The ship was on the side of the ship were loosening up. It was getting to be a flood. We kept working, up to our waist's "water." "Then There Was Hell" Another Breeman, William Perman, took up the story. He spoke slowly and smoked cigarettes continually. "The starboard boiler filled up, and then there was hell, he said. "It was in the afternoon. Sunday. Adam kept giving orders. He would say the captain was sure the ship would be saved and that we had to keep on feeding." "The stokkelew was full of steam and we choked. We worked like bloody cows down" there. The water got up to my neck and my shovel went swimming away. We tied ourselves with ropes and got in line, passing sacks of coal. Around midnight the port boiler was submerged, and that boiler signaled tom to fire them high. "The ship was pitching, up and down and sideways. We would be bounced in a rush from one boiler to another, and the chief engineer, of somebody, kept shooting orders to keep on shooting. "I saw Jimmy"Oliver, my breakmate, you down with blood on his face, and we pulled him up with the rope, tied around his waist. All of us men knew the ship was done for, but not one of us broke away." Early Monday morning, Perman said, the firemen were told to leave the stokchole and take to the lifeboats. As they were leaving they were chased away and the crew were kept emptily backs of coal into the main baker, until a few minutes before the Vestris baker, Perman, Ford and Gilver agreed in saying. Door Was Rusty Their opinion, reiterated by a dozen firemen, including Evans Hampden, was that the defective coal port was the direct cause of the sinking. This door is five feet square, heavily hinged, and maritime safety regulations require that it be securely fastened and locked. The edges of the steel door frangible must be sealed with a similar door is kick on the port side. "The men know the door was not locked," Derman said. "It couldn't be locked, because the booth's mate, beside the carpenter, tried to pound it together and couldn't. There wasn't any putty. The thing was rusty." No, orders were given to the firemen to abandon the stokehole. They were left helpless in their confusion. It was hard to believe that they actually all the boilers had been dismixed close to 2 o'clock Monday afternoon, to find the deck shanting skyward and men and women sliding like bundles on some vast unplated floor. "We had been ordered to do what we were told," Perman said. "When there were no orders what could we do? We didn't know. It seemed like hours in that stokhole waiting for some one to tell us to get out. Nobody came. We knew the ship was gone, and we were waiting to die down there." Oliver said he held on to a cabin door and for one indescribable minute watched the tumult on the deck. "It was a case of every man for himself," he said. "I saw a bunch, rush for a lifeboot and pile in, and before anybody had gripped the sides some one had loosened the ropes and the boat went down nose first." A prodigious wash sent Pernan and Ford over the rolling. Ford saw a woman bobbling about in a lifebelt. From the crest of a wave a spar lurged forward, striking her on the head. She sank. Demoanor Grave Pernan clung to a raft. Ford to a table and Oliver swam to a lifeboot, all rescued in the darkness hours later by the "Myriam." The Lumpert & Holl Line yesterday provided 127 men with suits and shoes at the Seamens Institute. They wandered about the library and dining hall, some gathering in groups. Their demeanor was casual.

Writes STANDARD COMPANY MAKING 1000 SQ. FT. NEW YORK. NEW YORK, LIBERTY HALL, Sunday. Night. Nov. 18. Liberty Hall was filled tonight with a large number of the staunch followers of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and the usual quota of visitors, who enjoyed with evident relish the inspirational treat afforded them. Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President-General, occupied the chair, while on the platform were the officers of the New York Local and a few visitors. After the usual concert program and the reading of the last message from the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the speech-making followed, the principal address being delivered by Mr. Knox. St.Joseph's Pure ASPIRIN AS Pure AS MONEY CAN BUY ONE DOZEN St.Joseph's 10¢ Pure ASPIRIN 5-GRAIN TABLETS THE LARGEST SELLING ASPIRIN IN THE WORLD FOR 10¢ MRR. MCARTNEY'S ADDRESS Mrs. L. McCartney, First Lady Vice-President of the New York Local, was the first speaker. She said that Negroes ought to dwell with great pride upon the splendid deeds accomplished by Negro men at the scene of the sinking of the Vestrils, especially upon the notable feats performed by Quartermaster Licorish, who risked his life to save others in such heroic fashion. It was incidents like these which helped to renew faith in the ultimate success of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, for a race which could produce heroes, like Licorish could not be kept enslaved by any other race for long. Own Papers Needed Mrs. McCartney further said she had read the varied accounts of the dinaster with mingled feelings—the white man's hatred of the Negro was all too manifest as exemplified in his treatment of the news, items. Here again the wisdom of the declaration of the Hon. Marcus Garvey that the race should have its own daily newspapers was seen. It was futile for the Negro to expect the white man, in his present mood, to give the Negro race a square and equal deal in the presentation of news, events. She commented on the fact that all that one white man who was disposed to praise the conduct of a Negro geeman was able to say was that he was a "damned good nigger." MISS ETHEL COLLINS' ADDRESS Ethel Mel. Collins, 2nd lady vicepresident of the 'New York Local, next spoke. Commenting on the work the Hon. Marcus Garvey had done to unify uplift sentiment within the race, she said it was to the lasting credit of the great leader and of far-reaching influence, she was certain, that throughout the world day by day black men and women were assembling in Liberty Halls with one object in view—to work for the reclamation of Mother Africa. The Hon Marcus Garvey had welded a powerful instrument for bringing into one homogeneous whole the scattered sons and daughters of Ethiopia, and there was no gainsaying the fact that in the not distant future his work would bear fruit. MR. A. A. M'KENZIE'S ADDRESS Mr. A. A. McKenzie next spoke. He said we were now at the dawn of a new era in the life of the Negro and now was the time for the Negro to put forth every effort in maintaining the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. This was the time for every Negro, young and old, to come forth and preach the gospel of Garveyism. The white man of today was trying to subdue the Negro through economic starvation, and if the Negro was neglectful of or ungrateful to the Universal Negro Improvement Association the race would be forced to pay the penalty with extermination. HON. E. B. KNOX'S ADDRESS Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President-General, said he desired to impress upon the members of the organization once again the seriousness of the occasion and the times through which the race was passing. The present was almost a tragic time for the Negro people of the world. The powers that he were doing all they could to discourage the leader of the organization and to dishearten those who followed him, but little did they know how foredoomed to failure their efforts were. Opposition in Bermuda He learnt that in Bermuda the Hon. Marcus Garvey was encountering some trouble, and he was calling upon the membership everywhere to rally around their leader more than ever at the present time. Only a few days ago, he said, President Coolidge made a speech setting forth the independence of the American people, their ambitions and policies. The President had let the world know that Anderson was going to pursue a certain course, regardless of what the rest of the world thought, and it seemed to him that in like manner Marcus Garvey had outlined the policies of the Negro people of the world, and it was the business and duty of Negroes to let the world know that they were going to support Marcus Garvey to the limit, regardless of what the rest of the world thought. A Comparison While the European press and European statesmen were criticizing President Coolidge, the highest paid journalist in the United States, Arthur Brisbane, editor of the Heartt newspapers, had told Mr. Coolidge that he had spoken just right, and the rank and file of America were behind him, and just as the American people felt impelled to sustain President Coolidge in asserting the independence of the American white man, so the black people of the world ought to rise up as never before and let the world know that they sustain the Hon. Marcus Garvey in taking an independent stand for the black people of the world. "Buckle on Your Armor" "Buckle on Your Armor." Mr. Knox, continuing, said the fight was on, though many so-called Negro leaders didn't seem to know it. Sometimes he felt that they knew, but were not prepared to shoulder the responsibilities that they knew such leadership entailed. But it was the duty of the rank and file of Negroes all over to keep their eyes steadfast on the goal of an Africa redeemed' and to vow they would go the limit to achieve their aims. This was not the time for pussyfooting. The times demanded ardent hearts, and he was appealing to the membership throughout America to buckle' on their armor and he prepared to give their leader the support required at this juncture. Let them all work so that the 1929 Convention would be an eye-opener to the world and a sign that the Negro was in deadly earnest. SUNDAY, NOV. 25, 1928 Musical Band in Attendance HON. E. PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE HON. M. L. ASSISTANT INTERVEN HON. L. McCARTY MISS E. M. COLLINS OTHER NOTED SPEAKER Big Mass Meeting at 3 P. M. Presentation of Tokens of Appreciation HEAR THE FAM SUBSCRIPTION HON. E. B. KNOX PRESIDENT, REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PRESIDENT GENERAL Seaman Tells How He Saved Lives of Twenty-one People (From the New York Herald-Tribune) John Henry Alexi was too modest to acclaim himself one of the fiercest figures in the Vestris disaster. It was he who found lifebent No. 13 bobbling empty about on the waves a moment after the Vestris was overwhelmed, climbed into the craft and subsequently saved the boatload of twenty-one other survivors discovered by the North German Lloyd liner Berlin. Elixicie [Alexi] is a tall, raw-boned, litle Negro with a decided British accent and blunt speech. He laughs as he relates the most dramatic details and his even rows of white teeth glisten. Tells of Leap. Into Sea He had leaped into the sea with the last of the crew on the starboard side, he said, just as the ship was slowly turning over. He had fastened a lifebelt about him, as the others had done, and he made a dash to get away from the turbulent waters about the sinking vessel as soon as he struck surface. "I was heading away from the ship, you see," he explained, "when I saw that one of the lifeboats had been wrenched loose from the port side and was pitching about with nobody, on board. The big ship had not yet settled below the surface and the waters were all in a stew, with a lot of women and men scrambling and trying to keep away from the eddies that were swirling about the ship. "Well, I made for the craft and got hold of it—it it was about sixty yards aggy and was being drawn by suction toward the Ventris. The moment I got into it I found it nearly half filled with water. But I noticed that it was being drawn further into the eddies about the sinking vessel, and so I pulled with the oars with all my might to get away from the ship. "As I was doing so I heard people in the water shouting at me and crying for me to pick them up. I was puzzled. I had to decide whether to try to save the boat first from being drawn down with the Ventris or to give these people, a hand and take my chances. But I saw they had lifebelts on and could hold on a while, and so I thought it, wise to try and save the boat first. I got away about 100 yards from the ship, waited perhaps about two or three minutes more until the turbulence about, the spot where the Ventris had gone down had disappeared, and then I rowed back to pick up as many as I could. "As-I pitched and tossed through the wreckage two other boys from the crew climbed aboard, Archilbald Bannister and John Myrick. Myrick jonly a boy. They had work to do and I had work to do; and there was-plenty to do for everybody. The boat was half filled with water. She was leaking like eight holes. Bannister and Myrick started to bale and I kept rowing around after people in the water. "Well, we picked up Alfred Duncan then, the second steward on the Vestris, and then we dragged Avard Adams, the chief engineer, out of the water. After that more of the crew that had jumped overboard swam toward us and we helped, them aboard. It was no fun watching the rolls and the troughs and trying to keep, the keel straight and also make for the struggling ones." "And at one time it looked as though we would just have to stop rowing and picking up people and just bale, because the water kept gaining on us in the boat. We were baling with hands and caps and shoes and anything that would hold water. But it kept skipping in. I never saw such a twist thing. Pickle Up Twenty-one Persons "Well, it happened that we finally had a total of twenty-two people, all passengers and the rest members of the move—the follows that had to jump. However them had been to the walk as long as two hours. First we fastened to nope other boots to sort of keep fuggerily, and then we thought if any of these boots went under it might take the others, and we broke away. "We didn't do much but bale all night. First step and then others." Silver Offering at the Door B. KNOX OF THE PRESIDENT GENERAL T.

There was no use heading for any place because we even lost our sense of direction during the night, and we just bobbed up and down with the ocean troughs. "It was funny, though, that first night we saw the searchlights of the Wyoming and some other ships away off on the horizon, and we sort of kept pointed in their direction, hoping they would see us; but they didn't. Some of the people in the boat yelled a few times, but it sounded funny and we all laughed and just kept on balling. "Once we heard a faint voice and we rowed in its direction and we got to where we thought it came from, but nothing was there. "And just keeping hold of those qars was no banana picking, man. Look at these blistered palms. And, say, I've done hard work in my life, but look at these blistered palms. "And it wasn't the first party of the sort that I've had, I was on the Carquet, back in 1922—running from Hall-fax to Bermuda, when she foundered on the rocks about 100 miles off coast. But that was not like this thing. We had time to get out and we did and every bloody life was saved. The able-bodied seamen then did it. 'I'm an able-bodied seaman.'" "But say, have you heard, whether anybody picked up a Bible or a Beatitude of the Bible? You haven't? Well, in case you should later hear of such a thing please put it in-print that I'm at the Seaman's Church Institute and I'll be glad to save some more lives for my-books.

Nathan Braynish philanthropist, pledged yesterday the heroism of Lions' Licefish, the little Negro quartiermaster of the Vistatr, who served at least sixteen and perhaps twenty persons who were struggling in the sea, and suggested that a fund of $29,000 be raised for him. Sevental survivors of the wreck told on their arrival here on the American Shipper how the little man from the Barbados rowed about picking up survivors. He had been swimming about in the water for some time when he sighted lifeboat 14. One person was in the boat, an injured fireman, but there were no oars. The quartermaster clambered aboard and then dived back amid the wreckage and found two serviceable oars. Licefish then rowed about picking up victims. "I have read of the remarkable bravery displayed by Lionel Lichoris, quartermaster of the Vestris, who rescued sixteen persons at the risk of his own life in the recent disaster." Mr. Straus wrote to the New York Times yesterday. "I believe a lasting testimonial of this occasion should be presented to this man to signify the gratitude of the public. I suggest that a fund of $20,000 be raised for this purpose, and am pleased to head the list with $250 as my share." "Whenever a policeman or fireman distinguishes himself for extraordnary bravery in lifesaving, I believe he should be amply rewarded. This hero certainly deserves this form of recognition." NEW YORK, Nov. 19.—Most of the surviving members of the Vestiria's crew who were still quartered at the Seacan's Church Institute yesterday seemed anxious to leave New York. Although they admitted that they had been treated excellently here, they described New York as a "good place to visit." One of the housecicks ones was Joshua Ford, a fireman, who was picked up by the tanker, Myrglum, Ford; a well educated Negro with a perchant for oratory, spoke of the wreck in this fashion: "It is one thing to see us here now, but another when the sea opened its angry mouth and said, 'I am ready for you.' There we stood when the vessel "listed way over." We looked to the east. We looked to the west. We looked all ways. There was no one to save us. There was the water waiting to take us and we knew we were waiting for death." Ford said he never expected to be, saved. He told how Barbados natives become expert swimmers—and declared that many passengers—who POTENTINE - NEW TORK'S product for ENERGY, VISION, WISDOM. No matter how old you are, 20, 30, 40, 50, Men and Women-get Potentine, right away!

Fowler, director of law and order at the institute, and told how narrowly he had missed shipping on the Vestris. His name was Sidney Fishwick and he is now a steward on the Lampart and Holt Liner, Voltatire. He had signed on the Vestris, but became ill and was in the hospital when the ship sailed. Judge Rejects Motion To Quash Indictments Against Perry Howard JACKSON, Miss.—U. S. Judge Edwin-R. Holmes overruled motions to quash indictments against Perry Howard. Mr. Howard, with three others and three white men is accused of selling public offices while acting as national Republican committeeman. Pending trial he was suspended from office as assistant to the U. S. Attorney General. Instead of quashing charges the Grand Jury returned additional indictments on similar charges against Mr. Howard and Edward L. Patton. S. D. Redmond and S. R. Redmond, brothers, were the other colored men indicted. Whites were: U. S. Marshal --- Potential must be good!

Buchanon, George C. McCullan and Charles Isaac. Buchanon served the indictment upon himself. Volding of the indictments was sought on the faulty and too general in terms and that an alleged conspiracy was started against them before enactment of the federal laws prohibiting traffic in public office dispensation. B. D. Redmond is chairman of the State Republican executive committee of the Howard wing of the party and also the author of the anti-lynching plank in the Republican platform adopted at Kansas City. Millar McGilchrist, special prosecutor from Washington, handled the government end of the prosecution, Friday. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, white, former colleague of Mr. Howard's in the U.-S. Attorney General's office, who secured the original indictments against him, was conspicuously absent. Sufficient has been told by men and women eminently wryth of belief to convince the most skeptical that if there was cowardice shown as the Vestri went to the bottom of the sea Negroes were not the offenders. Says Mr. E. M. Walcott, a white merchant of British Guiana, "The Negroes I saw, and I saw a good many of them, behaved magnificently." Mr. Alfred Ramos declares: "That little Negro (meaning Licorish) did what the officers of the Vestri failed to do." The senior staff officer of the U. S. S. Wyoming reported that three-white women picked up by his men said two Negroes of Barbados, also rescued, "helped them continually, during the long, dark hours in the water and made it possible for them to hold on until succor arrived," "As for our own boat," says Mr. H. C. W. Johnson, general manager, Trinidad Leaseholds, Ltd., "the Negroes behaved splendidly. They were experienced seamen, and had they not been we would never have kept that boat afford." And as if in mocking answer to all this efficiency and exemplification of real humanity, we could set down the refusal of some white occupants of a boat to permit a Negro-stewardess to go aboard with a white male companion who was with her in the water when it was seen that she was black. The white man was-told he could enter the boat, and only on his insistence was the stewardess permitted to clamber to temporary safety. But in spite of the overwhelming evidence furnished by survivors as to the splendid conduct of the Negro members of the crew of the Vestris there is still discernible a disposition in certain quarters to make Negroes the scapegoats of the affair, attaching to them a share of the blame for the loss of lives of the great majority of the women and children who were on the ill-fated liner. And so it behooves those who hold the good name of the race dear to follow with an eagle eye the proceedings that are now being conducted by United States Attorney Tuttle to apportion the blame. We have no hesitation in saying that we have confidence in this officer and admire the manner in which he is handling the inquiry; but still we hail with approval the decision to hold a mass meeting in Harlem on Wednesday, the 21st inst., at which Negro survivors of the crew will speak and a protest be formally made against the tendency displayed by the press to berate and belittle the black men on the Vestris for the part they played in this latest marine disaster, which, it is already obvious, ordinary prudence on the part of the ship's senior personnel could have averted. History records great deeds of bravery performed by black men. Only ten years ago, on every battle front, they were covering themselves with glory. Bravery, like cowardice, is to be found in black and white alike. And black men must fight with all the vehemence necessary any imputation to the contrary.

Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention, to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. NEGRO VALOR AND THE VESTRIS IT must have been distressing to Negroes and to all lovers of fair play to note the efforts of some of the survivors of the Vestris disaster to fasten upon the Negro members of the crew the chief blame for the large death toll among the passengers. Fresh from the heartrending scenes off the Virginia Capes, with memories of loved ones going to their death before their very eyes, these men and women who were the first to reach the port of New York on the rescue ships could well be pardoned if, their minds still unhinged, they became over-critical of the conduct of the crew as a whole. But we do not find it easy to be charitable when we recall the manner in which the Negroes were singled out as special culprits—the captain of the ship being apparently the only other—and the flood of mendacious and damning details that was poured into the sympathetic ears of white reporters of the New York dailies to The facts which are now being spread upon the record are telling a different story. Far from being the scalawags of the disaster, the Negro members of the crew are looming up as heroes, with none save one white member of the crew even appearing in the limelight, and he a steward, who seemed to have remained cool when his superiors—gil Nordics, by the way—had mentally gone to pieces. It was Lionel Licorish, a Negro quartermaster, slight of build but stout of heart, who performed amazing deeds of valor and who by sheer example must have buttressed the flagging spirits of many a man and woman who were being tossed about by the raging seas. Let the New York World, through its special reporter, Dudley Nichols, tell the story of what Licorish did: What Kemal's Turkey Expects to Gain From New Alphabet "There were wretched and suffering people among the survivors, but Lionel Litorish was not among their number. Litorish, quartermaster on the Vestris, is a pure-black Barbadian, and he had reason to wear that smile which showed even less gold in his teeth than he had in his heart. China has instituted what is called the most extensive popular education program ever undertaken suddenly by any country, but it does not include that change which carries constellation to a people—chance of alphabet. Turkey under Kemal is putting over a new system of letters, altering the script in which its literature is written, and even the names of the Koran, by unexamined "main strength." "For Licorish, in the middle of all that drowning and destruction which followed upon the foundering of the steamer, all at once found himself lying in a drifting lifeboat with a couple of bruised ribs. He saw a man lying unconscious under one of the thwarts, but there wasn't an oar in sight. Licorish looked around. Then he stood on the thwart and dived cleanly, and a moment later he was swimming back to the boat with a pair of oars. It is using radio, 12,000 teachers, personal lessons, by the president of the republic, threats of loss of office to 1,000 government employees unless they show proficiency in two months, and will suppress newspapers that do not abandon by December 1. In favor of Roman, the difficult Avable type that their readers spent years in learning. "The Ottoman language died with the Ottoman empire," broadensate the government radio. "It Is Avable characters prevent our language from developing independence. It was by historic-accident that we ever adopted them. We have struggled against them and our language and literature have lost force in the struggle. They are unfitted for the needs of expression in modern civilization. Wherever technical terms are used—in banking, commerce, science, modern philosophy, psychology, medicine—new characters are a necessity." "However he managed it, he did get into the boat and set to work with the help of the reviving occupant, who turned out to be a member of the foundered vessel's black gang—that is, from the stokhole—and with himself for captain and the restored stoker for crew. Quartermaster Licorish set to with such fervor that before he was through he had reached sixteen others." Contrast this unbiased recital of an epic of life-saving at sea with the wholesale condemnation of the valglorious "Captain" Sorensen, now so strangely silent, and you get the full force of the wisdom of the warning of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to Negroes to be prepared to conquer Alps of prejudice and hate before they can ever hope to come into their own. Now, knowing the facts, we are able to condemn the unworthy insinuations of a certain white passenger that a knife a Negro scaman carried between his teeth as he swam amidst the wreckage was for bloody defense against any fellow unfortunates who might come too near rather than against the man-eating monsters that infested the warm waters. Now, we can state our loathing and disgust, without mincing words, for those white gentlemen of the Fourth Estate who, hardly had the hysterical passengers breathed their mythical tales, than they furnished for good measure such epithets as "of course," "naturally," "the frightened Negroes," et cetera, seeking to impress readers that Negroes were by nature cowards, and nothing valorous or even orderly was to be expected of them in moments of crisis and danger. Aided by the reformers that they lament the "days lost in the desert". When under the sultans the northern Turks turned toward the Persian and Arabic cultures the nation lost its vigor, its literature became tittle, un-Turkish and too sweetish in manner and content: Arabic that had mummified Plato, made Ariototle "lifeless puppet" withered and drained of map the strong Turkish people." Nor was Licorish's feat by any means isolated. Several white passengers and members of the crew have come forward, almost angrily, to denounce the unwarranted attacks upon the Negro seamen and to declare, to the contrary, that they comported themselves in a manner worthy of the best traditions of men of the sea. It is now known, for instance, that John Henry Alexi, like Licorish, a native of Barbados, was responsible for the rescue of no less than twenty-one persons; that he had leaped into the sea with the last of the crew on the starboard side just as the ship was slowly turning over; that he had fastened a lifebelt about him, so the others had done, and made a dash to get away from the turbulent waters about the sliding vessel; that he was heading away from the ship when he saw that, one of the jifeboats had been wrenched loose from the port side and was pitching about with nobody on board; that he The literature that is being transcribed into Western characters is to be obedient Western works on art and science.

Bible Society 75 Years Old; Has Issued 76,000,000 Copies The American Bible Society has just informally celebrated its completion of seventy-five years in its present Bible House in Anor Place. In this time more than 76,000,000 copies of the Scriptures in sixty-nine languages and six systems for the blind have been printed, bound and issued from this building. All the processes of Bible production, including translation work in many of the languages, have been carried out in Bible House. The American Standard Revised Version of the New Testament was made there. The Rev. Dr. van Dyke completed the translation of the Bible in Arabic to the building, and Hiram Bingham, father of Senator Hiram Tingham of Connecticut, worked there on the translation of the Bible into the language of the Gilbert Islands, where he had served as a missionary. The society has the only existing plates of this dialect. 80% of World's Diamonds Art Buyed by Americans PAIRS, Nov. 12.—Eighty per cent. of the world's diamond supply is put into stock according to diamond experts here. The prosperity of the diamond market depends very largely upon how many diamonds the American, people buy each year. An indication of the amount of money invested in this year's diamond purchases is continued in the statement, that in the first eight months a total of $8,000,000 of diamonds United States, combined with $18,000,000 during the previous year. Prices for other countries are lacking, but it is said the 1925 total will show a big increase over preceding years. Roland Hayes Charms Vast Audience With Undiminished Artistry NEW YORK, Nov. 16. — Roland Hayes song, to the largest concert audience *Carmine Hall* has held this season at the Negro tent's recital last night, opening a fifth American tour that will range from Canada to Florida and California. He returned from further European debuts in Holland, Italy and Russia. A world-wide acclaim long since had left untouched the slight, urbane flare, the deferential sublime of an art of song, lingered again, as so often before, clutched at the throats of cultured listeners and drew their tears. In the poetic perfection of Milton's English, he song among his early Italian airs and encores one of Handel's from "Allerheir," unfamiliar to many. There followed a whole Schubert group, sung as the composer's countrymen, have heard their lieder rarely from their own artists, in limpid tone and crystal diction, by a dependent Sebastian. "Nedelbush" and the title of wonder, "Dies Post," the breathless speed, "Wobin" the transparency of its own brook. It was, however, in the "Dream" from Massonette's French "Manson," as enceinte to the German group, that Robert Hayes gave his most remarkable interpretation; the "tone drawn to a whisper, the words to a caress. Of such stuff are dreams, indulged, and not operable shoutings made. Brief English bits followed by Racimmanoff, the Smith-Williams, and Robinson's Robinson, the Smith-Williams, and Bernhard Tyler's "Ships That Pass," from a play of Paul Lawrence Dunham. A short program kept the house and stage crowded, for the final "negro spirituals" in which Percival Parham as accompanist, shared recently.

Smaller U. S. Banknotes. To Be Issued July 1 WASHINGTON, Nov. 16. - Presentation has been reached at a conference of Governors, of the Federal, Reserve Funds here to begin the issuance of the new smaller banknotes on July 1. All kinds of currency, except National Bank notes, and all denominations from $1 to $20 will be included in the first-issue and first-publicity that higher denominations of gold certificates and Federal Reserve notes will be issued at the same time. An institution Obit Secretary Melton might recommend to Congress registration of National bank currency was contained in a statement made public "It was originally contemplated at the time of the creation of the Federal Reserve system that this currency, should be refitted," said the statement, "However, since a considerable period of time has elapsed the Secretary of the Treasury deems it advisable to submit the matter to the Congress for its further consideration at the next session." "Should the Congress determine that the National Bank currency is, to be continued in circulation, the department will be prepared to begin production of the new currency directly early in the next year 1986, which begins on July 1," next. A NEGRO REPUBLIC Departures from London to the daily press indicate a state of unrest in the Union of South Africa because Russia is activating the Africans there to stage a racial war against the whites who have been oppressed for more than 20 years to rise up, overthrow them and take control of the country that is by right of motivity and inheritance their own. The English, alarmed, claim that they will fight any attempt which will endanger the "white supremacy" standards of South Africa. This intensified agitation for the rights of the blacks in Africa, fostered by the Russians, is but the opening wedge in a revolt that will allow the Africans to white men from Africa. Its growth will be watched and should be encouraged. We believe in Africa for the Africans—The Chicago Bee. Outdoor Exercise Don't stop getting outdoor exercise, because of the colder weather.

From our point of view, if ever there was a group to be designated as Crumb Eatery, the Negro group certainly can lay almost exclusive claim to be the one and only real placement. Not only is the Negro a crumb eater, politically, but crumbs seem to be his only fare. Politically, he must accept the crumbs of patronage, and office appointments; industrially, occupational crumbs are left to him; and socially, it is not the mode to permit even to fall. Surely, this feast of crumbs will not forever satisfy the Negro. There must be some stalwart Negro youth who will sally forth and demand a seat at the festive board where the full meal of citizenship is served—Cleveland Call-Post. The Negro race is far behind other races of the world in the development of large newspapers. There is a reason for this. One is, that the Negro does not prefer his own. This, of course, is a condition following out of slavery. He seeks truth, but believes that it can come only from the Big House. Many believe in the white man's story of almost every thing—things that are against no less than in the things that are not—Tampa Bulletin.

TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras, Nov. 14. — Augusto Coche, Foreign Minister of Honduras, said in a public statement today that the Government was preparing notes aimed to defend Honduran rights not only in several small islands covered by the Nicaraguan-Colombian Treaty but also to Capa Gracious Iloan. The empire's southern point of the bay into which flows the Coco River forming the boundary between Honduras and Nicaragua. The Foreign Minister's announcement came twenty-four hours after Alfredo Trejo Castillo, a former Under Secretary of Foreign Affairs, had asserted in a newspaper article that the keys of Roncador, Quita Sueno and other small islands in their vicinity to Honduras, although the treaty was not signed, Colombia stated that these keys of land were in litigation between Colombia and the United States. They are nearly 200 miles off the Nicaraguan coast, but are used for lightship stations by the United States under license from Colombia. The treaty also gave recognition to Meckmany's sovereignty over the Mosquito coast and its outlying keys. Cappo also gave the northernmost part of that coast. Choosing a President This year's election emphasized to an annual degree the disparity that may exist between the electoral and popular vote of a candidate under our current method of choosing a President. Hoover received 444 electoral votes to Smith's 87, but as this issue of The Nation went to press Hoover's popular vote had reached almost 21,000,000 and Smith's not far from 15,000,000. Thus Smith received only 16 per cent of the electoral vote but about 40 per cent of the popular vote. In a cabinet system of government, such as prevails in Europe, Smith would be a power as the leader of the opposition in the national legislature—here he is retired to political obscurity. Mark Sullivan writes that if Hoover had received 275,000 more votes "geographically distributed in the right way, he would have carried every State." Hoover had received 85,400 more votes geographically distributed in the right way, he would have won the election. Smith had a lead of 55,000 over Hoover in the combined vote of the largest fourteen cities. New York, Newark, Boston, Cleveland, St. Louis, and San Francisco went for Smith; Baltimore, Buffalo, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Detroit, Chicago, and Los Angeles preferred Hoover. Great Medical Finds Not Really Medicines ATLANTA. Gs., Nov. 17. - The two most important medical discoveries in a decade, insulin and liver extracts, are not strictly remedies in the sense that medicines are mainly understood. The classification of these two at the end of the training is by Dr. Elliot P. Jooch, Ph.D., of medicine at Harvard University. The two remedies, he says, simply supply the body with needed elements, the family being used for diabetes and the liver, for pericarditis angina. Neither will affect a cure, in the opinion of physicians, since both diseases are apparently the result of an injury defect in the body. But a patient may live a normal life of such a state, with no complications of the two diseases. would like that section from its post-suffolk natron of the Republican Party and the south of Negro domination, and actually stimulated the polls without any other move to passade and permit it to split normally on economic or political 'songs' has seemed the most desirable of political happenings. For the dead hand of old-party government and race prejudice combined has thwarted or delayed unconsolomably the intellectual, social, moral and industrial development of the South. That the smashing of this solidarity should now have come about through a narrow passion for prohibition, through an outburst of sectarianism and of bigotry is the iron of fate. None the less the great fact is: there the Solid South is broken at last. A precedent is established of enormous importance to the whole country. What has been done once can be done again, especially when it appears eventually that the revolt of Texas, Florida, Virginia and North Carolina will not mean the coming of Negro domination or any of the other burghoops by using which the average Southern politician has talked himself into office. Plainly, Governor Smith brought about this historical happening and put Herbert, Hoover, The South, voted against the Governor of New York, and not for Mr. Hoover. Second question the motives were mixed, and, it is equally clear that it will never be possible to assign to each one of those motives its exact percentage of responsibility. One Democratic county committee in Florida which voted not to support Governor Smith did so solely because he had dismayed the dry plank in the party platform; it soundly recorded its belief that the Governor had abandoned the Democratic Party and that therefore loyal Democrats were justified in voting for somebody else. The appeal of the bishops, headed by James Cannon, for votes against Smith because he was a war was effective in three degrees, but dread of the Pope, the biography of the Fundamentalists, and the generally narrow religious view of that section were even more effective in breaking the Solid South. That there were other constitutory cases is obvious. There are now whole communities in Florida and elsewhere made up of Northern people. In Georgia, in North Carolina, in Alabama, in fact all through the in Macau, in fact all through the with, the industrial development has been enormous, like, manufacturers in the managers of mills and factories and many of their employees have be- SUCCESS is ASSURED to Any Business House That Advertises Wisely So much money can be thrown away for this particular purpose, if not wisely spent.

The South is changing, and it will continue to change as it increased its wealth, paid the tremendous natural resources, and further developed as more and more foreign and Northern capital pour into that section. Finally, it is beyond question that more Negroes voted in this election than have been allowed to vote for some time past, and they generally voted for the Republics. It is a significant fact, also, that the States in the South which remained true to Democracy were those in which the Negroes are numerical superiority. Now it is, of course, possible that the break-up of the South may help to listen upon us the one-party rule of the Republicans. That chance we must run—just as we have to face the one-party allegiance of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, a solid block of Republicanism that should also be broken up. If a new party does not divide the South and New England, or genuine political or economic issues the Republican Party is more and more likely to profit. Not that we believe that the four resolving States have left the Democratic fold for good. Not in the least. But the break—will come again; we shall again have States leading the Democrats because people vote as they think, and not because of tradition or fear that intermarriage and social equality with the Negroes will follow the day after a State battles the Republican column. As for the Negro, we are sure that he will profit by the change. Given genuine battles between two parties over real issues, and more and more Negroes will be asked to vote. Even should this prove not to be the case it will be of enormous benefit to them if the habit of the Tillmans and Helfings of riding into office solely on the backs of the Negroes is ended. Already the dispatches report that Mr. Hoover contemplates entirely reorganizing the Republican Party, in the South. That is an admirable objective. It is as full of crooks, black and white, and of more job seekers as any party could possibly be. Usually it is a scandal and a disgrace. If he can bring it about that the fine men and women in the South who are at heart Republicans vote and act as such he will confer a great benefit upon the whole country. Ben Davis, of Georgia, Finds Politics Expensive ATLANTA, Nov. 17, -ibn Davis, Negro Republican leader of Georgia, announced today that under no circumstances would he be a candidate for re-election in Republican National Committee and that after Republican affair in this state would be conducted by white leaders. He made his announcement following an executive session of the so-called Davis faction of the Republican state central committee, at which a resolution was adopted recommending to the Republican National Committee that G. P. Fanders, of Swainshoro, be named national committeeman and Mrs. Charles A. Vernoy, of Athens, national committeewoman. Davis said he "would have nothing to do with the distribution or patronage in the state." He will retain his position as secretary, of the Republican can state central committee for the tape being, however, he said. He was "tired of the ensuing of George and Harris" (Democratic Senators), he said, and was unable to stand the "monetary strain" of politics.

By further in the House or district, said from among the sufferers in the provinces of Shanting and Sikkim, Union, declared yesterday, through the local organization for China Famine Relief, 206 East Porty second street, that the famine there is by no means over, as reported by some sources here. "Many thousands diluted their thin gruel of kaffir corn with chaff, leaves, or bark by way of celebrating the Harvest Festival," he said. "The autumn crops have been almost a complete failure." All Fields Raked Clean He told of finding fields "raked and swept as clean of leaves as a dance floor" by ravenous gleaners who could not afford to spare either leaves, or grass. Everything which cannot be eaten, must be burned, during the winter months, he said, and in some sections even these provisions will have disappeared long before the harvesting of another crop. The latest official reports from the Peking headquarters of the China International Famine Reel, Commission state that in all there are now thirteen provinces in China in which famine conditions are known to exist in various areas. The total area of the provinces named is 1,100,000 square miles and the combined population is almost twice as great as that of the United States, including her insular possessions. Estimates made by the commission show that 5,000,000 mice die this winter for lack of food unless all is given. John Earl Baker, who recently returned to New York from China, where he made a close survey as the representative of the American organization for China famine relief, declared that one-tenth of the people in western Shantung and southern Chihli were in an advanced state of starvation, sores, typhus and relapsing fever." General Feng Yu-hsiang, vice-president and minister of war of the Chinese government, declared recently through the famine relief organizations, that never in the last fifty years had the provinces of Shenzhen and Kunan suffered from so severe a drouth as that which visited them last year.

It A "first cobain of glass" has been produced in the laboratories of the Liverpool University. It has been named plass and is a combination of formalin and urea, heated with acid to produce a thick syrup, which hardens into a substance with all the outward appearance of glass. It may be moulded cut or turned like a piece of wood. By another process it is reduced to powder, then pressed hygrometically to produce an opaque substance, which can be given any desired color. In either form plass is said to be non-breakable and non-irritant. It is said to have properties of admitting ultra-violet rays, and this phase is under investigation. Plass is based on an invention by Dr. Fritz Pollak, Austrian chemist, and produced by Prof. E. C. Bady and his son Edward J. Bady. WILLIAMSON, M. S. Nov. 14. Prohibition was established by a constitution of about 1800 and the Government formed under J. H. Cotton, Prime Minister, unwedded, never setback in today's election. Prohibition wan on the ballot in the form of a referendum as to whether it should be continued or whether a licensing system should be adopted. The vote was overbearing against continuation of Prohibition. A new United Party, under the leadership of Sir Joseph Ward, made a début by gaining seats from Premier Coutts' party all over the Dominion. The final standing by parties was: Government, 28; United Party, 28; Labor, 20; Independent, 6. Most of the Independents are opposed to the Government. The Premier's party failed to gain a single seat. It held fifty-three of the eighty seats in the last Parliament. The new United Party combines Liberals, Nationalists and other opposed to the Reform and Labor Parties. Three Ministers lost their seats, A. D. McCormod, Minister of Land, G. J.

AS Pure AS MONEY CAN BUY The largest selling aspirin in the world for 10¢ DELICATELY FRAGRANT Statehood for Porto Rico Urged by Majority Party BAN/JIAN. P. R.-Amendment to the Constitution of the United States to provide for the creation and admission of overseas states is the main plank of the platform of the Alanza. Porto Rico's majority party, as drafted by Resident Commissioner Felix Cordova Dayilla in collaboration with seventeen senators and thirty-five members of the present House of Representatives of the island. A bill providing for overseas states is being introduced by former Towner while he was still a member of that body. Admission of Porto Rico as a special state, under this amendment, would harmonize, according to the Alanza, national interests with the dignity and economic conditions of Porto Rico. Under the proposed amendment insular senators and representatives to Congress would vote only on such legislation as might affect Porto Rico, but other national laws would not be enforced here unless ratified by the local legislature. Meanwhile a temporary status is sought which would give Porto-Rico the right to frame its own constitution. The platform points out, among other things, that the admission of Porto-Rico as a regular state would mean seven congressmen. Cuban Reformers Call Death Penalty Futile HAVANA.—Two: powerful societies have launched a campaign, to abolish capital punishment in Cuba.

A MANERA DE CUENTO (Pera Mi Amigo Luis Torres Colon) En el pueblo de Newport, Pa. los barrenderos parase, que tienen la costumbre de pensar en diferente forma a cono piensan sus colegas los barrenderos de la gran ciudad en Nueva York. El pedro podía, si así lo prefiere hacer todas las conjuras que quiera y hasta llegar a la conclusion de que este incipiente embromador de cuartillas has pasado por el vira-cruz de haben sido barrender en la ciudad de Newport y en la ciudad de hierro. Anut a toda ella (esto como materia informativa por si a alguien le importare) no hemos tenido ese honor de emperifollarnos de blanco y con gorra de visera negra con su distintivo número barrenderil, pero si pueden estar seguros los factores que el malamente escribe se intersero mucho en los diarios, cuando los escandalos del departamento de barrenderos de Nueva York estará al palo. Bien es ya gabión que a municipalidad de Nueva York se le robo de lo lindo. Pero miro la cosas desde el angulo de la diferencia, este poco importa y lo que realmente nos interesa en harr todas las menaces en haceros una pequeña historia que han tejido los barrenderos, de la ciudad quichura. Aquellos, aparentemente o son más estupiados e son más lima, pues cuantos es costumbre en Newport cuando se carga con la basura a sul ultima destinación, examinarla cuidadosamente a ver. si entre ella aparece alguno que otro objeto de valor. Ultiamente un barrendero mientras cernia los viejos, treopezos sus manos con un jarre los esos amarillos que hacen abrir los ojos a cualquiera con visible, estupidez. Immediatamente de este incidente los demas compañeros de labor empezaron a buscar y con tan feliz que casi todos se encontraron billetes de mas o menos denominación. Apte este casado de cosas al inmediato habia que hacerse y uno de ellos, con ilizada idea, sugerir que todos unieran la que pequeña fortunada que habían encontrado para entre garla a su superior. Los billetes alcanzon, a una vez reunidos, a una enviable, canididad y aún estan en las oficinas generales del departamento de barrenderos de Newport, aguardando que a sus duños que tuvieron la más pura de perdierlos vengan por ellos. ! Si Diogues revivei y me preguntara por mi hombre honrado te diría que lo encontraria y por montones entre los barrenderos de Newport Si Diódges revivera y m'preguntara por mi hombre honrido le diría que encontrarla y por montones entre los浸渍ores de Newport, Pa.-La. la probidad indiscutible o algunos hombres y la vila ilem lo es la sufrida nació cubaná en esa tierra donde tan patrióticamente lucharon y dieron sus precisas vias tantos abnegados cubanos de color y donde aun tiene esa raza representativa de honrosas ejecutorias civicas con una arela toda honor y lealtad. En Cuba, donde el brazo poderoso de los Maceos garantizaron con valor estoigo la independencia de ese pueblo. En esa isla, teatro de epopeyas guerreras tan elocuentes y de tragedias epicas en el valor espartano, en el modo de todas las manifestaciones mas exelas que se hayan registrado al traves de los tiempos y las edades. En esa Cuba tricolor, se le prohíbe la entrada a un periodico decente, culto, representativo de del derecho de su nacionalidad. En la tierra de Maceo, se hostiliza al "Negro World" sin ninguna satisfacción oficiosa, por el solo hecho de que (suponemos nosotros) este periodico es orgando de una institución de la raza, de color, y al igual que cualquier otro xodero, humanamente aleciona a su raza a sacurir el yugo de opresión a que ha sido concreted por siglos, y entra en el dterminamiento sano de leventar el espiritu de sus hermanos en raza para que se organizen y en colaboración con los hombres de buena voluntad de todas, las otras razas y creeds, garantizarles alla en el Afrika matriz, en la tierra de los antecesores, el derecho de constituerse en nación y como cualquier otro division etnografívira en lo suyo de acuedo a las exigencias culturales y civilizatrices de los tiempos modernos. Crecenos al actual Presidente de Cuba, Honi. Geraldo Machado, un hombre de grandes aleazes de mira para aprobar, una dispersion tan absurda como lo es la de prohibir la circulación en su país de un periodico que en nada mortífica el orden de la republica, ni mucho menos jamas ha entrado en eriticas ni suspicencias contra la personalidad del caballero ni del gobernante. Tampoco no se ha entromedido el "Negro World" en nada que afecte la decencia y moral del pueblo de Cuba, para que su circulación se vea con antipatia por el Servicio Postal Cubano. En ninguna ocasion se ha producido este periodico en manera y vinjinosas para el pueblo y la administración del país; si solo ha hecho una propaganda constructiva entre los elementos de su raza para un fin altamente plasible en esta epoche de luz y de progreso; progreso y luz que bian fecundamente al pueblo de Cuba; luz y progreso que irradian al Sr. Presidente de la Republica de Cuba quien tiene un concepto elevado de ello para tratar las cosas y los hechos bajo su recta apreciación. Tampono cree el "Negro World" que el gobierno de Cuba se deje influenciar tir tres responsabilmente por meras congeniencias de determinados intereses, porque la seriedad y enterza de los que gobiernan debe asenjarse al cuadro que nos presentan geometrically una parallela perpendicular a sitio en que pisamos: la seriedad corriendo parallela a la inefreza, yendo ambas a morria a florizontal derivada del piso que esla base basal de humillación. Descartamos esta suposición y confianzas que las cosas se aclean y la democracia que tanto costara al pueblo cubano tenga una garantía verdad en la heroica PERLA DE LAS ANTILLES.

"MAYA BIBLE" GETS NEW TRANSLATION Historical American Document, is Now in Library at Guatemala City—Has Many Legends MEXICO CITY, Nov. 16—A new translation has appeared of the "Maya Bible," the Pepin Bib, as it was called by the Indian convert to Christianity who wrote it down a few years after the Spanish conquest of his country in 1524. The two other translations of this valuable document in American history, made long ago, have been subjected to certain criticisms as not being faithful versions of the original. Because of this, J. Antonio Villacorta, of the faculty of political and historical sciences, and Flavio Rodas, inspector of archaeological monuments of the Maya, have written a version of the rare document, now in the Mexican city library. Competition work, given the opportunity to work with the women of the Lighthouse, will be held this week at the Lighthouse museum in New York. Work will be held at the Lighthouse with a focus on servicing the boat and boat maintenance. At the Association held a quizzle, 11am, both Street. Among the women, club work has been started while also to reach all the blind women in New York who are interested and for the first time they will have a separate club. B-monthly meetings will be held and sewing work will be done for the Lighthouse clothing department which distributes clothes to the blind poor. Work will be held in the organization recreation groups, also clubs and gymnasium classes. An increased appropriation for guide service will enable many who have not been able before to come to the Lighthouse, to be brought there for the meetings. Twice during the year there will be Sunday afternoon teas for both colored blind men and women. The work for the men will be taken care of through the men's recreation department and will include among other things, the organization of a glee club and an orchestra. Special attempts will be made to place the colored men in the Fourie workshop where the workers make mops and brooms for commercial consumption, and to find news stands or other occupations for them. The social service department of the Tahiti maize centres on its work through the visits of the home teachers which are in turn supplemented by the placement bureau, the medical department, the sight saving service and various other departments. get rid of that rheumatic grouch!

Prior to the advent of Garrov on the scene many Negroes at home and abroad trusted Talibanism and of the hopes and aspirations in life, handsome the fact that reunities, decisive disadvantages and inhuman actions were imposed upon them, yet they considered that these treatments were avenues to a greater love by the white man because he always promised them an entrance into a mythical lily-heaven with their skins transformed from black to snow-white and perpetually feating on milk and honey. But he searched for that the pretended love of the white man is only bait to us into gifts of inevitable destruction. But many Negroes are still trusting sacredly to the white man's love. Can it be in this age of the world's great enlightenment, when the survival of the djig is the maxim of the day; when many of the expressed races are enduring to shake off the shackles imposed by an alien race through diplomatic measures. Negroes are showing that because of the corruption and selfishness which have impressed the human family, no one race will unselfishly and take cars of another, that the Negro is ignorant in spite of experience? Oh, if we Negroes could only see ourselves as others see us. We are facing a very serious crisis, and if we still trust to the white man's love for racial emancipation, ours will be an overlasting hell. Would to God that we would realize now that He is our only Friend and Lower and trust Him for our perpetual recompensation by developing the latent talents that lie within us, thereby presenting an African power to the world to save ourselves, and postpity-fresh rain, disgrace and annihilation. DAVID M. LIKE. Port Limon, Costa Rica. William W. Davies, correspondent "La Nacion," of Buenos Aires, South America, and lucky survivor of the filigree liner Vestera, evidently believes that self-preservation is the first law of nature only so far as the brave and proud Nordics are concerned. Writing his experiences during the skating of the unfortunate ship, Mr. Davies describes in glowing praise "the helpless of white women and the calm, strict and excellent work of white officers, and men during the scramble"; but, as far as the Negro people and crew were concerned, Mr. Davies, with merely his clan, face and eye out of the greedy English, French, Italian Instructor Morning BROADWAY AUTO 30 AUTO INSTRUCTOR Including 15 Driving and 15 Shop Less. 217 WEST 123rd STREET, Just WEST Cars for Hire for State Examinations, $3.50 WE WANT 1,000 AGENTS To Sell Hobb's Famous HAIR GROWER Hobb's Grower will Grow Hair in one Month SEND $1.00 Including 15 Driving and 15 Shop Lessons, Day and Night 217 WEST 123rd STREET, Just WEST OF 7th AVENUE Cars for Hire for State Examinations, $3.50 B.

Why the white men detract so desperately the business of saving himself in times of great troubles may be so desperately in times of money, but why the black men are so desperately in times of money, but why the black men are so desperately in times of money, with which the Negroes had nothing to do, the Negroes, as usual, were regarded as "rowers of boats and sivers of white men, women and children." The Negro part of the crew of the Vestric, however, happened to be Barbadians, and Mr. Davies, it appears found out that those "Little Englanders" knew just as well the principles of nature's first law as the excited Celtics. If the enemy employed by the officers in placing the ones of rescue teams had been employed in another channel twelve hours earlier, there would have been a different story for Mr. Davies to write. "The offering in charge of the boat probably knew that they needed men for rowing and had to be tactful," wrote Mr. Davies, "but it seemed strange to me that places were left in the boat for such men as these Negroes while 'passengers' found them, and thus continued. "There was clearly something wrong in the arrangements made for manning the lifeboats and allotting places." A Negro who was seen lying on a bit of raft, paddling with his left hand and holding a knife in his right—obviously as a protection against an attack from a shark—was described as "wielding a knife in his right hand in defense of his right to the raft." This misrepresentation, of course, is to make it appear that the Negro was bent on murdering the first man, woman or child who attempted to rescue themselves on the same raft. A little white girl; nine years old, on being assisted by a white sailor, was seen to have had "blue eyes a smiling," nevertheless, "unfortunately, she drowned. Mr. Davies did not happen to see the heroic exploits of Gonel Liorishi. J. MILTON BATSON. New York, N. Y." SHANGHAI, Nov. 18.—The Nanking Government has issued regulations governing the official size and pattern of the Nationalist flags. The width and length of the banners are to be in the ratio of two to three. The Kuilimintang party flag is to be blue with a white sun in the center, the sun having twelve rays each in the shape of a 30 degree披帆 triangle. The rays are to measure one-half of the sun radius. The National flag is to be of a red field. The upper left hand quarter of the banner is to be blue containing the white sun. Kuilimintang and Nationalist banners have been made in many shapes and sizes. Now they will be standardized. Morning 0934.

Get heavy and become agents a Department ELECTION FIGURES SHOW BIG GATING ON FORMER YEARS 39,000,000 Parenting It is Estimated, Voted—Hoover Lead. Set at 6,000,000—Gain from 1924 Placed at 10,000,000 WASHINGTON, Nov. 16—The total vote for President may reach a new record of 39,000,000, or nearly 10,000,000 more than the 29,009,000, for 1924, according to Simon Michelle, Washington attorney and President of the National Get-Out-the-Vote Club. With more than 4,000 election district districts missing and complete unofficial returns from only a dozen States, the two major candidates President-elect Ivorsner and Governor Smith, approximates 38,000,000. To this must be added the vote for candidates of several minor parties, usually 1,000,000 to 1,500,000 and a vast number of incomplete ballots, such as "dry" Democrats not voting for the head of the ticket, or "wet" Republicans who likewise cut out the head of the ticket, though casting a regular party vote for State and local candidates. Puts Incompiles Ballots at Million "The percentage of incomplete ballots is always high in every election," Mr. Michelle said, "but in the election just held the proportion of 'split' and incomplete tickets will naturally pass all precedent, because of the issues in the election." The number of new voters or former "stay-at-home" voters, coming to the polls without ballot experience, the incomplete and erroneous ballots may reach a million or so." It now seems likely, Mr. Michael said, that Mr. Hover's vote will exceed, by nearly 6,000,000 that of the highest Republican vote hitherto cast for President, and that "Governor Smith's vote will exceed by possibly 7,000,000 the highest Democratic vote hitherto cast. Mr. Michael said that the last three Republican candidates polled, respectively: 1924, President Coolidge, 15.755,015; 1924, Senator Heard, 15.122,000; 1916, before women generally judged Judge Hughes, 8,633,221. The last three Democratic candidates polled: 1924, John W. Davis, 8,385,503; 1920, Governor Cox, 9,147,316; 1916, before woman suffrage, President Wilson, 9,129,608. This year, with 4,962 election district votes, according to Mr. Michael, the highest number of unofficial returns gave Herbert Hoover 20,912,192 votes and Governor Smith 34,626,603. The incomplete total for two candidates is 35,439,715. Missing election districts include 327 in Pennsylvania, 511 in Minnesota, more than 600 districts in Arkansas in Mississippi and South Carolina, while twelve States have 100 to 300 districts missing, and three-fourths of the States have many districts still unreported, and campbell, official returns from no State in the Union. President Fleet-Heuer, Mr. Michael said, is likely to have a total popular vote of about 22,000,000, and Governor Smith will probably exceed 16,000,000. The Socialist candidate, Norman Thomas, may poll 1,000,000, and several hundred thousand votes were cast for other candidates of minor parties.

In 1922, a committee of the registered or poll lottery did not get to the ballot booth, and as many more failed to qualify for registry.

Seeking to Mitigate Some of Race's Ills In State of Texas DALLAS, Texas, Nov. 17.—At its annual meeting, here last week the State Inter-racial Committee set as its major objectives for the coming year the continuation of its crusade against lynching; further investigation of transportation facilities, with a view to their improvement; the study and bet on conditions throughout the State; legislation propulsion to erect the school for delinquent colored girls which was authorized by the last legislature; and continued support of the excellent public health work that has been done among colored people under the Shepherd-Towner bill. About fifty of the committee's hundred members were present, and two days were spent in reviewing the work of the past year and planning a future program. Dr. W. P. Metoney of Baylor University occupied the chair, and Dr. M. W. Doeck presides of Wiley College, recorded the proceedings. Reports were heard from Mrs. Jessie Daniel Ames, director of the inter-racial work in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas, and from Prof. S. W. Houston, colored secretary, who assists Mrs. Ames. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the meeting was Prof. Houston's report of the ex-haustive study, which he has just made of the conditions of transportation by train, Pullman and in various.

Fifty per cent of the Negro teachers of Texas, he said, attended summer schools during the past year. Miss Mary Shipp Sanders of the State School Department gave an interesting report as to attendance, equipment and distribution of school-funder indicating clearly the desire of the State Department that the Negroes of Texas should participate fairly in public school facilities, a result which often falls out of attainment, however, for lack of local interest. Every member of the committee was urged to "inventate the conditions in his own county or community." Miss. Anne May Mathis, colored nurse from the State Department of Health, told an interesting story of the public health work being done by the school nurses the though the eternity in instruction and by the staff of the health train which was sent about the State. It was agreed that the members of the committee should lend all possible support to this work in their several communities, as well as to its adequate maintenance by the State. Prof. Houston reported the results of thorough investigation of the two lynchings in Texas this year, and the committee accepted the obligation to do everything in its power to blot out this crime, including the possibility of certain special anti-lynching legislation. Prof. Houston urged the colored members of the committee to do their utmost to secure forgiveness and other causes of ill will and friction.
