The Negro World

The Independent Weekly The Voice of the African World Negro World A Newspaper Dedicated solely to the Integrity of the Negro Race VOL. XXIV. No. 48 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 1928 1929 Will Be an Eventful Year in Race History; "The Black Man," New Daily, Will Be Started on March 2 Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting: We are now entering into the activities of the new year—a year through which we hope to work with unabated zeal to assist in accomplishing the great work undertaken by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. To me, the year 1929 promises to be the most eventful in the history of our race in that it is anticipated that during the next twelve months the Universal Negro Improvement Association will have proved to the world its declared seriousness in putting over the colossal program of Negro reclamation. The program we have given out for our Convention suggests how serious we are to place the Negro in his right position among the races and nations of the world. 1929 shall see a great part of this program undertaken and acted upon most seriously, depending, however, upon the unanimity of those whose duty it is to co-operate under the circumstances. A Good Year The year 1928 has passed without our regretting much; in fact, the Association gained much by way of prestige during the past year. It is reasonable, therefore, to believe that we shall not go backward but forward, especially that we are now in a practical way launching out to bring about a realization of our dreams. Working for Successful Convention Every unit of the Organization at this time is working for a successful Convention. Although the date set, the 1st of August, may be far away, yet it is of such vital interest to the Negro that they are preparing themselves in every nook and corner to see that nothing is left undone to make it the biggest of all the Conventions held by the Organization. It is hoped that the Convention of this year will bring out into service some of the best men of our race, because they are needed at the various outposts to be on guard in protecting the rights of the race. We want high type men and women to be the representatives of the Universal Negro Improvement Association as we have laid out in our Convention program; not men and women who are running after money, but men and women who are anxious to serve for the honor it brings and for the good that can be achieved in behalf of the race. Unfortunately, the Association has had a sad experience in dealing with most of the men who have come out of our previous Conventions, as Executive Officers, but, the August Convention Will See an Unprecedented Gathering of Earnest Race Workers UNITS OF ORGANIZATION IN EVERY PART OF THE WORLD PREPARING FOR THIS GREAT EVENT Dependable Men and Women, of Character and Integrity, Needed in Various Outposts to Safeguard Rights of Race "The Black Man," Great Negro Daily Newspaper, to Start Publication Positively on Saturday, March 2 lessons of the past have tended to place us in a position where we will be more careful in selecting our leaders in the future. We want sincere and able leaders of whom we may be proud at any time; leaders who will be capable of measuring up to any emergency in character, in ability and in loyalty. The Association will be assisted greatly in finding such leaders by the various communities sending to the Convention such delegates as are worthy of their confidence, because from these delegates we hope to gather the material to be in service for the carrying out of the gigantic program already outlined. It goes without saying that 1929 will stand out as our biggest year; biggest because we shall undertake more of a practical and material nature than any previous year in our existence as an Organization. The indications are good, therefore, let me encourage every Negro in every section of the world to rally as he has never rallied before in helping us to achieve the goal. The Co-operative Spirit All members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are reminded to not only renew their pledge of loyalty to the Organization but to see that every obligation is lived up to, for now more than ever we need the co-operative spirit. Every member can help in this direction by paying up his and her dues and the annual assessment tax which is due this month. The Association needs money to finance the tremendous program that has been laid out. This money we can only get from those who are identified with us, so that no member will expect me to repeat these instructions because it is incumbent upon each and every one of us to financially stand behind the Organization at this time. We want also to remind members that they will not be entitled to any benefits during the year if their assessment tax for January is not paid. The Association's revenue must be guaranteed because we have undertaken to do a great deal for the good of the race, and we can only successfully cope with the situation when we have the financial backing that is necessary; this can be supplied by every member being in good financial standing with the Organization. "The Black Man" Newspaper I have to announce also that owing to the late response of a large number who have been collecting for the publication of "The Black Man" we are unable to acquire all the machinery in time for publication this month. We have acquired the Printing Plant and we are now waiting on the shipment of two linotype machines and a Goss Printing Press. With these equipments added the "Black Man" will positively appear on Saturday, the 2nd of March. The Daily Black Man will be circulated all over the world carrying to every nook and corner the message of the Negro—"Africa for the Africans, at Home and Abroad." In co-operation with the "Negro World," this daily paper shall fight the battles of the race without any hesitation or compromise. It is, therefore, to the interest of all Negroes all over the world to give their moral and financial support. In the next issue of the "Negro World" the rates for subscription to the paper will be published and all those who desire to subscribe to it may do so. All collectors who have not yet sent in their collecting lists are requested to do so, so that the additional funds needed to pay for the printing presses may be available. With very best wishes to one and all for a Prosperous New Year, I have the honor to be "What strikes me now more forcibly than ever before is the great extent to which Johannesburg is dependent upon its native people. They are everywhere, doing what they can to build up this great city." —Dr. W. M. Carter, Archbishop of Capetown. "Johannesburg is not entirely given up to the manufacture of criminals. It is rapidly becoming a staid and sober city." —Dr. A. B. L. Karriy, Bishop of Johannesburg. "Johannesburg is a 'tough nut'—a very 'tough nut' indeed from the point of view of clergymen." —Mr. W. H. Port, Mayor of Johannes- Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN SAY "BAYER ASPIRIN" and INSIST! Proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians for Colds Headache Neuritis Lumbago Pain Neuralgia Toothache Rheumatism DOES NOT AFFECT THE HEART Accept only "BAYER" postage which contains properly printed address and postal code of the recipient. Made in the United States of America. These were some of the striking phrases from the speeches made last evening at a reception held in the City Hall by the Mayor and Mayorsess and councillors in honor of Dr. W. M. Carter, Archbishop of Capetown, and members of the Provincial Missionary Conference. Rishops and ministers of the Church of England from almost every center of the Union and Southern Rhodesis were present. The Mayor, on behalf of the City Council, extended a sincere welcome to the distinguished guests. He said he was glad to hear that the episcopal synod just concluded had proved successful, and he hoped that the Provincial Missionary Conference, which open on the following day, would be equally successful. Mr. Portcoye said that Dr. Carter and his congregation worked in Pretoria and Johannesburg; for in those far-off days Johannesburg was included in the diocese of Protoria. He had had the philological then of enlarging the field of enterprise of the Church, and of making it a greater power for good in the Province. Church's Difficult Task ... "Every one who knows anything about the Church today, realizes that its work is beginning increasingly difficult," continued the Mayor, "but like true soldiers of the Cross, you are buckling on your courage and giving your level best. Johannesburg is a tough nut—a very tough nut indeed from the point of view of clergyman. (Laughter.) However, it is just emerging into a cathedral city, and I hope its new cathedral will prove a great asset to Johannesburg." His Grace the Archbishop of Capetown, Dr. W. M. Cater, in reply, said Johannesburg's reputation for hospitality was well known, and the reception was but another instance of that hospitality. The bishop and member of the Union and beyond, for the Church united South Africa and Southern Rhodesia, thus settling what he hoped would an example to the two States. Dr. Carter requested briefly to his early visit to Johannesburg some thirty years ago. "I remember when Lord Milner had the foundation stone of the cathedral, which is now being completed," he said. "What we have in mainly the result of those who have gone before, and it is up to those here now to finish it." City of Real Life Two things had struck him on his present visit to Johannesburg, the Archbishop proceeded. The first was its wonderful growth into the most important city in the Union. Where there was growth there was life, and Johannesburg's power and certainty that it would live life. It there here are very keen. Dr. Carter adds, "About 25 or 25 years ago Sir Walter Raleigh lectured to Johannesburg, and he told me he had never lectured to keen audiences. They may be hunting the nimble tickle, he said, but they are certainly keen about it." And that keenness Johannesburg has preserved. Debt Owed to Native "The second thing that has struck me (and it has never struck me so forcefully before) is the great extent to which the city is dependent upon its native people. Wherever you go—whether it be in the homes or in the (Continued on page 8) SHAH OF PERSIA PUSHES REFORMS Persian History and Literature Must Be Taught by Persian Teachers in Schools JEHUSALEM, Dec. 20.—Day by day It is becoming clearer that Persia has decided to adopt the program of enlightenment and Europeanization which Kemal Pasha has introduced into Turkey. The Shah seems determined to employ Christian means, it necessary, to break the resistance to the new order, by the conservatively minded clerics and religious authorities. According to the latest reports he has adopted the drastic measure of sending into exile 300 Uliem (scholars of the Islamic faith) who oppose his reforms. Some of these exiles have gone to the shores of the Caspian Sea, while others were permitted to emigrate to Iraq. Many Schools Opened The government is doing its utmost to provide educational facilities for larger sections of the population. Numerous schools have already been opened, and still more are to follow. For the time being there are not enough Persian teachers to staff the schools, so that recourse is being taken to the employment of foreigners. Sixty French teachers are at present in Persia, French being one of the compulsory school subjects. About 600 students are sent for training to European universities each year, with a view to their gradually replacing the teachers. All the schools are compelled to adopt the curriculum of the Persian schools and must have Persian history, literature and accurately taught by Persian teachers. With a view to encouraging parents to send their children to school, the Shah has issued a decree releasing from military service all young people of military age who attend an educational institution. $100,000 Gift of Negro To Aid Fisk University NASHVILLE, Teen, Jan. 1—James Dallas Barrus, first Negro to take a Bachelor of Arts degree in a college south, of the *Moon-Dixon* line, and who died of a heart attack in a street car here on December 5, left approximately $100,000 to Fisk University. He was eighty-two years old. He estate, which includes eighty-five houses, a library and stocks and bonds, will be held for and for teaching and for the erection of a faculty apartment; house on the Fisk campus. Barrus was graduated from Fisk College, a Negro institution here; taught school for a white and was given work in surveying in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, but gave up, this work to start a Negro drug store in Nashville. Later he began, investing in UN PLANTATIONS 1,400 Killed and 2,000 Wounded in Brutal Onslaught of Titans on Sitting Ropes Workshops on Banana Plantations The savagery with which the Colombian government, at the instigation of the United Fruit Company, smothered in blood the recent strike of the banana plantation workers who struck against that company last month, is at last coming to light in spite of the official censorship. The Colombian government's official report admitted that its troops had murdered 200 workers, but now stories of eyewitnesses, given by the Colombian newspaper "El Liberal," show that nearly 1,400 workers were killed and 2,000 wounded by the Colombian soldiery at the behest of the United Fruit Company. Hundreds were buried in unmarked graves and others, were thrown into rivers and swamps. Most of the banana workers are Jamaican Negroes. Wounded Shot or Drowned. "El LiberaF" declares that the government troops opened fire upon unarmed workers and peasants in some towns, mowing them down with machine-gun fire. Wounded workers were shot, and in some cases those yet alive were buried while still breathing or thrown into rivers. The Colombian paper prints names and specific instances of women and children, innocent bystanders, who were shot by the soldiery. Crusader News Service. M. G.

BOSTON, Jan. 6. - The Right Rev. Reverend William Lawrence, Episcopal bishop emeritus of Massachusetts, advocated today full education in the facts of sex for young men and women and said that he believed mothers could begin this education with children from three to nine years of age. Bishop Lawrence appears at the a series of Sunday public lectures at the Harvard Medical School. "In spite of tradition, prejudice and misinformation," he said, "have been the cause of the conclusion that this kind of silence must be wrenched off and the subject treated in its fulness, as embodying facts of spiritual, physical, social, and moral truth. "The best medical and educational movements seem to me to be toward bringing the education down to the little child from three to nine years old," he said, "taught by his mother as he has been taught other facts by her." U. N. I. A. ACQUIRES FINE PROPERTY FOR INTERNATIONAL H'DQUARTERS The government has been urged to take action to prevent the government from being unable to respond to the government's reply to their demands for removal of restrictions in favor of public safety necessary by our work in preparing for a 11 day all out war. Official announcements call all was tranquil but other sources argued the atmosphere was charged with possibilities of trouble. The diggers have told that if the government does not grant their demands, they will rush the diggings. Gen. J. B. M. Hertzog, Premier of the Union of South Africa, has deounced the demands as exorbitant and has expressed the government's purpose to maintain law and, order. Diggers have been assembling from all parts of the Transvaal. As a state preserve the diamond fields have already yielded about $30,000,000 worth of precious stones. It feeling among the poorer classes is widespread over their inability to get a direct share of these riches. The Fight for Diamonds CAPE TOWN, South Africa, Jan. 6 (Canadian Press cable via Reuters)—The navy is respecting the situation in Namibia through that with anxiety. A further reinforcement of 120 armed police reached Port Nolloth yesterday. The diamond diggers, who are dissatisfied with regulations in the district, held a meeting today for the purpose of receiving the government's reply to their demands. A sensation has been opened at Port Nolloth by the arrest at the Steen Cimp of the district surgeon, who is charged with illicitly processing diamonds weighing fifty carats. HOOVER HOPES TO MAKE TOUR OF WEST INDIES President-elect May Visit Island in Three Weeks' Tour, if Time Permits A West Indian tour, lasting about three weeks, and including visit to Cuba, Haiti, Santo Domingo, Porto Rico and possibly the Virgin Islands, may be undertaken by President-elect Herbert Hoover after he returns to Florida from his stay in Washington, it became known today. While Mr. Hoover's plans are by no means definite, it is known that he would like to make such a trip before his inauguration, and will probably do so if he finds that he can afford the time. The earlier plan of visiting Mexico City 'probably will have to be described, it is believed, because of the fact that the president-elect will not want to risk at this stage of his preparations for 'entire' into office. The call at Havana was under consideration during the South American tour, but it appeared to have become necessary to foreign it because of the delays incident to the journey down the west coasts of the Americas. The importance of Porto Rico as an unusual possession of the United States, and the situation in Haiti which still necessitates the presence of American marines to preserve order there, are believed to be influential in inducing the president-elect to desire first-hand observation of those regions. The West Indian tour, if it is made, is not expected to start until after Mr. Howard has been in Florida a week or two. Head of India Moslems On Health Trip to Africa BOMBAY, India, Jan. 5.—The Aga Khan, head of the Indian Mosques, left suddenly for Europe today under medical advice after only three weeks' stay in India. In a parting message to the millions of his followers, the Aga Khan asked them not to indulge in violence even under the most provocative circumstances and asserted them to be loyal and give every help to the government in maintaining law and order. and give, every help to the government in maintaining dwarf and order. He will go to Tripoli to recuperate. Mr. Marcus Garvey has decided to establish the international headquarters of the U. N. I. A. in Jamaica and the Association has recently purchased "Edelwein," a fine property on the Slipe road, where the headquarters are now located. Last night a big function was held at the headquarters to mark the new step that has been taken. Several hundred persons were present. On the platform were Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Garvey, Mrs. Drew Garvey, A. H. L. Brown, O. B. H.; Mr. C. D. Johnson, Mr. Green chancellor, and others. Mr. Garvey, also chair, delivered words in picture he used for a special occasion for the Margo people of Kingston and St. Johns. They will enjoy their own picnic there with dignity, honor and rename. Within the next month, he begins to have a moving picture house on one side of the property, and the other side of JERUSALEM, Jan. 8. A movement is now on foot in Palestine to change the status of the country from a mandated territory to a British dominion. The originator of the idea is Calanell Josiah Wedgewood, a member of Parliament, whose plan has begun to find favor with several political leaders in Palestine. Vladimir Jabotiniky, head of the Zionist Revisionist party, has been chiefly responsible for the sponsoring of the dominion idea here. The attitude of Mr. Jabotiniky toward this movement has astounded the British authorities, with whom he has been up to the present time persona non grata because of his revolutionary ideas during the two years immediately after the war. In a recent address before an audience numbering several thousands, he expressed the opinion that Palestine as a British dominion would be better able to defend Jewish rights and claims than Palestine under a British mandate. Thus far this plan would be quite agreeable to Great Britain, but Mr. Jabotiniak goes to the extreme by demanding a Jewish high commissioner and unrestricted colonization of the whole of Palestine as well as Transjordan by the Jewish people. He is apparently oblivious of the fact that the Jews constitute as yet only a minority of the inhabitants, and most probably will remain so for a long time to come. Even with an unrestricted Jewish immigration into Palestine there is little hope for a Jewish majority in this country. The 600,000 Moslems have not as yet adopted and will not, for centuries to come adopt the modern idea of birth control. Would Annex Sinai Peninsula Commenting on the proposed change, Itamar Ben Avl, in a leading article in the *Paleocean Weekly*, supports the idea of Palestine as a British domina- hip, with the provision that Great Brita- nium compensate Palestine for the loss of Tranjordan by annexing the Sinai Peninsula, south of Palestine, and as far as the Suez Canal. He believes that this vast peninsula, although bar- ren and deserted at present, would help the Jewy to obtain area in the West. He is certain that Egypt, to which the Sinai Peninsula belongs nominally, would not oppose such a move on the part of Great Britain, since it promised this land more than twenty-five years ago to Dr. Theodore Herzl, the founder of the modern Zionist movement. Although it is obvious that it is to the interest of Great Britain to favor the dominationization of Palestine, nevertheless, in its view of policy, centuries old, of pleasing the majority of the population over which it rules. It is doubtful whether it will ever consider changing the present status because of the overwhelming majority of Moslems. South African Students Study New York Life NEW YORK, Jan. 7-Thirty-seven South African students, who arrived on Saturday to tour the Eastern States, were guests last night at a Johnson glean at the Town Hall Club by the National Student Federation of the United States. The visitors were welcomed by Dr. Dejeanne B. Johnson, the president of International Education. Thomas Thoepo of Cale Town, leader of the student group, replied on behalf of the visitors. The group, which includes twenty-five young women and twelve men, arrived in Boston on the "Adriatic." They will be in New York until Thursday when they leave on their tour. They will return here on Jan. 28. The National Student Federation, the National Confederation of Students, of which the National Student Federation is the American member.

Tonight they will attend a dance given by Columbia University students in John Jay Hall. the grounds would be made beautiful for the recreation of the people. In the course of his remarks he outlined the program which he intends to put forward at the general election of members for the Legislature at the commencement of 1930. Speeches were delivered by Miss Vinton Davh, Mrs. Garvey, Mr. Simpson, Mr. C. D. Johnson) and a final address by Mr. Garvey. A hand of music was in attendance and songs and color were rendered. One item of the musical program which constituted the large audience with the resolution of the popper spun: "Remembrance" by Dr. Bryan and Miss Mary, also they responded to the television program. Mr. Garvey said, emotionally that to隋唐青年必有 his contribution of the Association will be held in conjunction which there will be representations of the Association from different parts of the world. LONDON, Jan. 2. Any causal student of British imperial problems might well be-participed for assuming that relations between this country and India are approaching a crisis. The all-parties conference at Calcutta, under the leadership of S. M. K. Gandhi, has formally declared that unites the British government, before January 1, 1930, accepts what is known as the "Nehru Constitution" for India in instrument which confers virtual independence), Indians will cease all pretense of co-operation and civil obedience. LINKING AMERICA AND WEST INDIES BY PLANE LINE Commercial Air Line Between U. S., Bahamas, Porto Rico, Cuba, Haiti and Santo Domingo Inaugurated-Mail and Passengers Carried MIAMI, Fla., Jan. 9. *Amerlon's airline linking five nations with this country was inaugurated here today with the departure of four mail passengers planes of the Pan-American airways for Havana, Porto Rico and the Bahamas. They bore an array of distinguished passengers, including Postmaster-General Hurry S. New, William P. McCracken, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Aviation, and Miss Amelia Earhart, transatlantic flyer. Preceded by ecemonies which included playing of the American, Cuban, Postmaster-Governor and British national airs, the first ship took off for Havana at 8:07 n.m. It carried fifteen sacks of mail and four passengers, among whom 'were' Mr. McCracken and Miss Earhart. A second Havana plane, carrying more mail and one passenger, got away sixteen minutes later. The Postmaster-General himself loaded the mail on the Porto Rico plane, then climbed aboard and departed with it at 9:23. He intended to descend at Havana, the first stop, and return here by plane during the afternoon. Accompanying him were W. Irving Glover, second Assistant Postmaster-General; E. R. White, superintendent of foreign mail; Mayor E. G. Sewell of Miaml, Edgar N. Gott, president of the Keystone Loening Aeronautical Corporation, and W. E. Sienna, an official of Pan-American Airlines, Inc. The fourth plane winged away; for Nassan, Bahamas, at 9:05. Equipped with Radio Multi-motorized amphibian planes radio course were used in steaming service over the 340-mile Pan- American route, which lies over Havana, Camaguey and Santiago, Cuba; Port au Prince, Haiti; Santo Domingo city; Dominican Republic, and Sim Juan, Port Rico, at the far tip of the West Indies. Daily service will be maintained between Miami and Havana, a distance of 241 miles, while sailing will be made from Miami to Nassau, being made to extend the route later to Pan- mania via Havana and the central American republics. NEW YORK, Jun. 7—No race has contributed more to the progress of this city than the Negro, United States Attorney Tuttle declared yesterday in an address, praising the part played in the Vestris disaster by the Negro scamen and firemen. Mr. Tuttle spoke at the Annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in the Mount Olive Church, 120th street and Lenox avenue. "The sinking of the Vestris proved that—there is no distinction of color in the fraternity of valor," he said "The story of Lionel Liceiris is a story of a hero of the sea. His colored fellows" on that ill-fated ship were equally brave and we cannot protest too strongly against the unjustified attempt to tempt his responsibility for the disaster on them. Reviewing New York's growth, Mr. Tuttle asserted that the Negro had been a vital force in shaping its character. In conducting the affairs of this city, he said, the Negro has shown that he can work "arm in arm" with white persons on a plane of equality. According to the report of William Pickens, field secretary of the association, there are more than 15,000,000 colored persons in this country now. He said his organization had 100,000 members, 10,000 of whom are whites, "fighting for emancipation and American civilization." Arthur B. Espingarn, vice president of the association, was chairman of the meeting. At its close mourning was collected for the association's activities. Haiti Bars Agitators PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, Jan. 7.—(UNS.)—Under orders from the United States the suspect Haitian government has enacted a law restricting the immigration of "white robbers." Four押着 rammed bows for more than thirty days will be obliged to surrender a押着 from a Haitian coming armed. Yet so elastic and so fine do words and phrases become when they are applied to Indian politics that it has surprised few experts in Britain on Indian affairs, to find Gandhi, on the day following this grave gesture, explaining to the special correspondent in Indian "Telegraph" that his followings routine they have little chance of enforcing such drastic measures, and that "all that really matters is that British leaders make within the year some serious and definite move toward us." "Then," Gandhi concludes, "ultimatums and time limits will not matter." However, in the expectation that Gandhi would place upon the all-parties conference—the responsibility for some such interpretation—as he has in fact done—even such a stammy one as the "Manchester Guardian" confesses that it become difficult to take very seriously the proclamations of extreme Indian Nationalists. "The Guardian" goes on to point out what must be recognized universally among people who seek to delve deeply into the Indian situation; that for the sake of its prestige alone the British government cannot yield to the ultimates; that Indian Nationalism embraces Communist elements, whose doctrines are anthem to Indian capitals and landmarks. It includes Pun-Islamic ideals whose dreams of Mahometan domination frighten Hindus. In a word, the Indian Nationalist movement shows lines of cleavage which have existed since the post-war Hindu-Moslem alliance collapsed, and Gandhil's personal appeals are by no means what they were then. Gandhil once more serves as the instrument of progressivism when he voices fear lost this apparently chotic position may lead the Simon, Commission, which is now gathering data to be submitted to the British Parliament on the issue of independence; to recommend in effect that no further adventures in self-government should be permitted, to such a volatile population. That some Britons in India feel sentiments akin to those expressed by "The Manchester Guardian", is instanced by the comment of the influential Calcutta "Stateman", which it says is not met, that the Indian Congress is to become the advocate of revolution, what is to be the attitude of the Indian government toward that body? Such comments can hardly fall to produce an effect upon the Simon investigators, and at the moment it can only be said that, viewed from London, the extension of measures for the sale of Indian gold is sufficiently darkened by the recent action of the Indian Nationalists. No More Exploitation "The Correspondence of Eastern and Oppressed Peoples" comments as follows on the recent Calcutta conference which is now the subject of, world-wide discussion: INDIAN NATIONALIST MOVEMENT The National Congress of India will open at Calcutta on December 22, lasting till the end of the month. Various problems concerning India will be brought up for discussion, the most important of all being the question of national independence. In the constitution of the First Congress in 1884, it was stipulated that (1) to enable all carnest workers in the cause of national progress to become known to each other, (2) to discuss and decide upon the political operations to be carried out, the resulting effect, lastly, and not the least important, (3) to form the germ of a native Parliament which would constitute in a few years an unmissable reply to the assertion that India was still wholly unfit, for any form of representative institutions. To look after one's own affairs is an inherent birthright of every man and of every race as such-inherent birthright is not to be disputed, or enforced upon by others on whatsoever ground.

The rise of the Negro to place and power, he said, was but in accordance with the whole trend of history, which showed the unceasing rise and fall of nations. Marcus Garvey had been chosen by God to lead Negroes, no matter where, domesticated. He, the speaker, was born and reared in America, and he had little patience for any one seeking to make a cleavage in the ranks of the race by harping with people. One thing he would advise the membership to cease harping on Christianity and the religious question. Marcus Garvey had told no one not to believe in God. On the contrary, he told the members to believe in the God that created all. Their time was better spent considering ways and means for the redemption of Africa along the lines the great leader had indicated. MR8. CAPERS RETURNS Mrs. Emily Capers, one of the earliest members of the organization, who was away from New York on a visit South, was then introduced. She said she had returned to New York impressed with the permanent nature of the work the Hon. Marcus Carvey had done in America. He had left his imprint for good on every community. "Let us," she said, "praise God for the man He has sent to lead us out of this degradation." HON. MME. DE MENA'S ADDRESS Hon. Mme. M. L. T. de Mena, International Organizer, next spoke. She said: "I am glad again to be here after a trip from Boston down to the Gulf of Mexico—New Orleans. It try pleasure to bring greetings from the people. "The condition of the Negro in his daily life is improving quite a deal more of the now remarkable things and one of the most significant, to our group, is the racial consciousness that has been awakened in the hearts of African Americans to note that down in New Orleans, where class and color prejudice was so rife and where some professional people were inclined to shun the Universal Negro Improvement Association, all are now thronging to the Division where having awakened to the racial injustice, including the leader, had given to the race a broad and substantial programme and platform upon which to stand." (Applause). She Grew in Courage Mane de Mena then told of an incident where 'a Negro woman who owned a laundry, becoming 'discouraged, arranged to sell it to some white people, and they had actually taken it over and had put white girls in it' to but it, but imbued with the new spirit of Garviesry; she determined that it could be run successfully and she went and told, the prospective purchasers that she had changed her mind and did not wish to sell any more. She placed 40 Negro girls in the laundry in place of the white girls, and when she, the speaker, left, New Orleans the laundry was doing well, receiving the support of the colored people. Mme. de Mena also told of the formation of a clinic by Dr. Peters, the president of the division. The clinic was located in the Liberty Hall, she was well appointed, and one Monday morning no less than five doctors at their clinic, taking care of the clinic. Another fine thing the New Orleans Division had was an evening school where those who could not go, to school in the daytime were given instruction. The speaker then referred to a great Christmas treat staged by the Missouri-Pacific Railroad for 10,000 employees. The function was held in the Liberty Hall of St. Louis. She had the honor of being called upon to address the great gathering, and she was confident that the cause of Garveyism was aided by the evening's events. "Mime, de Mena then launched into a characteristically vigorous and eloquent appeal to the membership of the corporation, curbed by the unsettling efforts of the enemy. The members must not permit doubt and misgiving to assail them but must go forward with the work, with unwavering loyalty to and confidence in their leader, themselves and the great program which he had given to them. HON. E. B. KNOX'S ADDRESS "I know," he continued, "many of your minds are grieved, many of you are very anxious-over the conditions that have recently-developed concerning the future welfare of our beloved organization and the execution of the great mission, according to the plan our great leader." We wonder in our minds first-what will be the outcome, but I can answer any query like that with a clear conviction that everything will be well in the outcome of our great organization. I can play with a clear conscience that any thing and every thing that is done to embarrass the Hon. Marcus Garvey or to impede the great step at the Negro world at large. Proceeding, Mr. Knox said the Negro of today has described to the state the real personalization of whatever the person gives choice of oppression or not. But a few days, and a long article appeared in one of the papers, and all the Negro papers picked it up saying the slain Marcus Dearby and getting away for a great chance to destroy the Negro peoples of the world and that the federal authorities were going to hit him in the bus. How taking a cognizant of Negroes, was defrauding any one he, the speaker, was at a loss to understand. White men counted Negroes as much as they wanted to, and what was wrong with Negroes doing a little counting on their own? The destiny of the Negro, observed Mr. Knox, is as important as the destiny of any other people in the world, and what he could not understand was why the white man was so long realizing that the Negro is a human-being. Making the People Think 1. think, however, that was very significant about the incident of the Negro newspapers copying what the white newspaper in question said was the truth. The newspaper that Negro Garvey is the most courageous leader among the Negroes of the world. One paper in particular said that the white man should understand that the Hon. Marcus Garvey had made his people think, and that was the important thing. It said "you just make Negroes think and keep on thinking, after a while they would think straight and right, and it said too much importance should not be attached to the truth." He said that Negroes were making the race think. "And I said to myself," commented Mr. Knox, "the Hon. Marcus Garvey has set the Negro thinking, too." Mr. Knox then announced that he would soon be sailing for Jamaica for an important conference with Mr. Garvey on matters connected with the organization, and he would take that opportunity of impressing upon the membership throughout the country of carrying on in the same splendid way that he did in the past. He was much used to be done, much preparation looking toward the coming international convention, and he hoped that on his return from Jamaica he would receive nothing but good reports as to the conduct of the various units. KEMAL'S NEW ALPHABET EXCITES MOSLEM FEARS Design to Crush Islam Seen in New Laws — Armed Revolt Against Kemal and Government Rumored CONSTANTINGLE, Jan. 7.—Fear of Mosques that their sacred religion was being undermined by the introduction of the Latin alphabet and other measures was believed today to have resulted in plots which were suppressed by the government at Sivas and Broussa. The new alphabet became effective on New Year's Day, when street criers beat drums in every village throughout Turkey calling on men and females between 16 and 40 years old to enroll in the new national schools. All literates were required to take a four months' course in the new A B C D. There have been reports of plots at Stamboni as well as Sivas and Brousa and these have caused considerable excitement in Constantople. It was rumored that the plotsters were arranging an armed revolt against Ghazi Mustapha Kesim and the Emperor Mustapha Kesim, who had grown out of resentment over the modern reforms was not learned, although it was known that eleven persons were under arrest there. It seemed that the Moslems at Brousa and Sivas, however, feared that recently introduced reforms were designed to crush Islam. The daily newspaper Kidam said that the thirty-five recently arrested at Brousa were engaged in spreading propaganda detrimental to the acceptance of the new Arabic language. They were expected to go on trial shortly and the court proceedings were awaited with great interest. If convicted, their sentences were expected to be severe. While the government officials apparently were completely masters of the situation at Broussonet and Sivas, it was stated that they were having difficulty in unmaveling the Stamboul attack and that they were around K尔德里希 Hennem, who was supposed to be the chief organizer, and it was said that her evidence was "most unsatisfactory." The authorities were puzzled as to how to deal with her, since she is the wife of an Egyptian doctor. LEAP.YEAR BLAMED FOR DROP IN POSTAL RECEIPTS WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. — A decrease in the spatial revenues of fifty cities in December is reported for the first time in fourteen years. The post-office statisticians blame it on the fact that 1928 being leap year, there were fifty-three Sundays and five of them came in December. For the month were 829,772,822.92, as compared with 840,822,764.89 in December, 1927, when there were four Sundays, a decline of 829,646.47, or 0.28 per cent. The decrease on the basis of thirty-one days, the statisticians found, is transformed to an increase of 1.83 per cent when compiled on the basis of business day for business day. For New York City, the average increase was 829,772,822.92, as compared with 840,822,764.89 or 0.28 per cent. Thirty-five of the cities showed decreases, including most of the larger business centers. Among the cities that showed increases were Minneapolis with 7.98 per cent; Springfield, Mineapolis, 4.85; Des Moines, 5.83; Auburn, 4.65, and Boston, 4.65 per cent.

S. as His Country's Protector MONROVIA, Liberia, Jan. 6. — A tribute to American friendship for Liberia was a feature of the annual message of President Charles D. B. King of Liberia to the Legislature. Speaking of the friendly relations that had at all times existed between the United States and Liberia, he said: From the foundation of this republic of the United States has been that of true friend and protector, to this country in many difficulties. President King pictured the progress of the country during the last year as "phenomenal," with revenues steadily rising, passing the million dollar mark each month during the summer and continuing to rise. Road building would be an important part of public activities during the year, he indicated, adding to many miles of new roads built during the last year.

Honduras Claims Islands 1770 COLOMPA, Honduras, Jan. 6. The Honduran foreign minister made public today, protests to Nicaragua and Colombia regarding the boundary treaty concluded between the two countries last March. The protests were forwarded in November. The treaty is regarded as assuring to the United States the rights to important approaches to any intercultural canal through Nicaragua. The protests, as disclosed by Polish Minister Augusto Coello, read: "I must express the surprise of my government to see included in a treaty between Nicaragua and Quita Stones, whose possession and dominion are claimed and hondurang with titles of undeniable ownership." The United States has lighthouses on the two islands named, which are about 200 miles off the Nicaraguan coast and leased from Colombia. Through the intervention of Curtis D. Wilbur, secretary of the navy, an investigation of recent attacks on the Naval Air Force in uniform was begun yesterday by Rear Admiral. Louis R. de Steiger, commandant of the Third Naval District. Following a conference between representatives of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and Rear Admiral de Steiger at the New York Navy Yard yesterday afternoon, the latter announced that the cases of those sailors who precipitated the attacks were under investigation and that in the event the charges are sustained the sailors will be written complaints from Negroes injured by sailors at the Times Square subway station on December 31 in a fight which assumed the proportions of a riot and was not quelled until forty positions interrupted, and in another attack on a airway train in Brooklyn, on December 31, were forwarded from Washington yesterday. Admiral de Séjour, contracted with James 'Walter Johnson', secretary of the rage counseling and Walter White, impatient secretary, one hour later, daily. Admiral de Séjour then discharged jointly summons to the U.S. 'RED' CAMPAIGN IN SOUTH AFRICA DISTURBS POLICE "I have not seen anything of the document, and I only know about it through the cable in the Hand Daily Mall." I have no information to give you at present." General Secretary of the Communist Party of South Africa. "If such a document arrives I can assure you that the I. C. U. will have nothing whatever to do with it."—Mr. W. G. Ballinger, organizer of the I. C. U. "If the cabled reports of the contents of this instruction are correct it is serious, and if it came to our notice things of this kind were circulating among the natives we should take immediate and dramatic action." Major Taylor, District Commandant of Police. These three statements were made to a Hand Daffy Mall representative yesterday concerning the report from Bigna, London, that the political secretariat of the Communist International had put down important directions for work among natives in South Africa. These directions call for the reorganization of Communist forces in South Africa and concentration of efforts to stir up natives against whites generally, and English whites in particular. It seems quite clear that this document has not yet reached Johnsnessburg, but the police are aware that active propaganda is going on among the natives in their own territories. A police official said that agents were abroad in the territories advising the natives that Americans were coming by airplanum to help them drive the white manatee. They also convinced the natives to produce a white fox because of their color and advised them for the sake of their own health not to the European coopering utensils. "The Communist Antifurious on the natives is more serious than people generally think." It white South Africa knew just how much concentration is being put by the Communist Party on the natives of South Africa they would sit up and take notice." This emphatic view was expressed by an official, whose work brings him into close contact with the native race in the Union, and there is reason to think before long disclosures will be made which will bring home to the authorities the need for keeping a very observant eye on activities in certain quarters. English Primate Heads Move to Abolish Hanging LONDON, Jan. 5.—A large section of British public opinion, supported by the Commander Garrison Lang, Archbishop of Canterbury, is determined to do away with capital punishment in England, where a century ago there were 200 crimes punishable by death and men might be hanged for sheep stealing, and young children could be executed. Parliament is abolishing the death penalty has been sent to the public for signature. It is being pressed by a vigorous educational campaign. The petition will be presented to the House of Commons next spring. The movement against capital punishment, which has been steadily gaining in force the last few years, was invited to sudden action by the recent case of Ocean Slater, condemned to death for his sentence, his sentence committed to life imprisonment, and who recently was de-claimed innocent of the crime with which he was charged and set free. Richmond and U. S. S. Arkansas, instructing the executive officers of the respective ships to conduct an immediate investigation and forward a reply to the commander's office. Members of the crew of these two vessels are alleged to have beaten two Negroes on December 21. Admiral de Seigler also had the representatives of the Negro organization confer with executive officers of the navy which led to dock. Tigersoffers were supplied with the names of the sailors who are alleged to have injured a Negro man and woman at the midtown station on December 31. Mr. Johnson will forward a telegraph to secretary Wilbur today requesting that he issue a specific warning to members of the navy against any possible recurrence of the attacks. Mr. Johnson said that the navy had ordered attacks by sailors. The majority of those injured had died or captured, but had been unable to obtain any recovery, according to Mr. Johnson. He said that sources of伤害 concerning sailors, forces of aliens from other nations, and the host plant and assumed that there was considerable unanticipated damage. FRANCE N.

Please only use of Bayer Imagines of Intermittentist or Infantipen These were some of the striking phrases from the speeches made last evening at a reception held in the City Hall by the Mayor and Mayorsess and councillors in honor of Dr. W. M. Carter, Archbishop of Cipetown, and members of the Provincial Missionary Church of England from almost every center of the Union and Southern Rhodesia were present. The Mayer, on behalf of the City Council, extended a sincere welcome to the distinguished guests. He said he was glad to hear that the episcopal ayod just concluded had proved so successful, and he hoped that the Provincial Missionary Conference, which on the following day would be equally successful. Mr. Port called that Dr. Carter had many years ago worked in Pretoria and Johannesburg, in for those off-days Johannesburg was included in the diocese of Pretoria. He had the privilege then of enlarging the field of enterprise of the Church, and of making it a greater power for good in the Prairie. "Every one who knows anything about the Church told me, 'What that its work is becoming more difficult'," continued the Mayor, "but like true soldiers of the Cross, 'to have your level best. Johannheuser to be a town, not a village, to be indicted from the point of view of the clergymen (Laughter). However, it is just eminent into cathedral city, and I have been married with many great respect to Johannheuser." His Grace the Archbishop of Capetown, Dr. W. M. Cager, in reply to Johannheuser's reputation for hospitality was well known, and the reception was but another instance of that hospitality. The bishops and members of the conference had come from the Union and beyond, for the Church united South Africa and Southern Rhodesia, thus setting what he hoped would be an example to the two States. Dr. Brayton referred briefly to his early visit to Johannesburg some thirty years ago, "it reminds me, which Lord Maitler had the foundation stone of the cathedral, which is now being completed," he said. "What we have to do is to reconstruct the stone zone before, and it is up to these men now to finish it." City of Real Life Two things had struck him on his present visit to Johannsburg, the Archbishop, preceded. The first was its wonderful growth in the most important city in the Union. Where there was growth there was growth and Johannsburg's growth had certainly proved that it had real life in it. "People here are very keen." Dr. Carter added. "About 25 or 26 years ago Sir Walter Raleigh lectured to Johannsburg, and no told me he had never been to it." He said he hung the miniature ticker, build that the miniature ticker about it. And that keenness Johannsburg has preserved. Debt Owed to Natives "The second thing that has struck me (and it has never struck me so forcefully before) is the great extent to which the city is dependent upon the native people.

The Shia seems determined to employ vigorous means. If necessary, to break the resistance to the new order by the conservatively minded clerics and religious authorities. According to the latest reports he has adopted the draggle measure of sending into exile 300 Ulama (scholars of the Islamic faith) who oppose his reforms. Some of these exiles have gone to the shores of the Caspian Sea. While others were permitted to emigrate to Iran. Many Schools Opened The government is doing its utmost to provide educational facilities for larger sections of the population. Numerous schools have already been opened, and still more are to follow. For the time being there are not national English teachers to and from the schools, so that resources is being taken to the employment of foreigners. Sixty-Four French teachers are at present in Paris. French being one of the compulsory school subjects. About 600 students are sent for training to European universities each year, with a view to their gradually replacing the foreign teachers. All the foreign schools are compelled to adopt the curriculum of the Persian schools and must have Persian history, literature and geography taught by Persian teachers. With a view to encouraging parents to send their children to school the Shah has trained a degree releasing from military service all young people of military age who attend an educational institution. $100,000 Gift of Negre Te Aid Fisk University NASHVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 2—James Delius Burrows, first Negro to take a Bachelor of Arts degree in a college south of the Mason-Dixon line, and who died of a heart attack in a street car here on December 5, left approximately $100,000 to Pike University.

The estate, which includes eighty-five homes in Nashville and stocks and bonds, will be used for an endowment of teaching and for the erection of a faculty apartment home on the Flat campus. Burrows was graduated from Fish College, a Negro institution here, taught school for a while and was given work in surveying in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, but gave up this work to start a Negro drug store in Nashville. Later he began investing in Negro property. 1,400 Killed and 2,000 Wounded in Brutal Ominous of Troops on Striding Needy Workers on Banana Plantations The savagery with which the Colombian government, at the instigation of the United Fruit Company, smothered in blood the recent strike of the banana plantation workers who struck against that company last month, is at last coming to light in spite of the official censorship. The Colombian government's official report admitted that its troops had murdered 200 workers, but now stories of eyewitnesses, given by the Colombian newspaper "El Liberal," show that nearly 1,400 workers were killed and 2,000 wounded by the Colombian soldiery at the behest of the United Fruit Company. Hundreds were buried in unmarked graves and others were thrown into rivers and swamps. Most of the banana workers are Jamaican Negroes. Wounded Shot or Drowned "El Liberal" declares that the government, troops opened fire upon unarmed workers and peasants in some towns, moving them down with machine-gun fire. Wounded workers were shot, and in some cases, those yet alive were buried while still breathing or thrown into rivers. The Colombian paper prints names and specific instances of women and children, innocent bystanders, who were shot by the soldiery—Crusader News Service. M. G.

Bishop Lawrence Urges Giving Children Sex Data Bishop Lawrence Urges Giving Children Sex Data Ages of 3 to 9 Are Suitable, He Tells Harvard Students BOSTON, Jun 6—The Right Roygood William Lawrence, Episcopal bishop emeritus of Massachusetts, advocated today full education in the facts of sex for young men and women and said that he believed mothers could begin this education with children from three to nine years of age.

President-elect May Visit Island In Three Weeks' Tour if Time Permits A West Indian tour, lasting about three weeks and including visits to Cuba, Haiti, Santo Domingo, Puerto Rico and possibly the Virgin Islands, may be undertaken by President-elect Herbert Hoover after he returns to Florida from the stay in Washington. It became known today. While Mr. Hoover's plans are by no means definite, it is known that he would like to make such a trip before his inauguration, and will probably do so if he finds that he can afford the time. The earlier plan of visiting Mexico city probably will have to be discarded, it is believed, because of the time it must require and the isolation in the United States to the Mexican capital, which the president-elect will not want to risk at this stage of his preparations for entry into office. Eager to Observe Situations The call at Havana was under consideration during the South American tour, but it appeared to have become necessary to foreign it because of this delay, precipitated to the journey down the west coasts of the Americas. The importance of Porto Rico as an insular possession of the "United States" and the situation in Haiti (which still necessitates the presence of American marines to preserve order there, are believed to be influential in Indian the president-elect to desire this hand observation of these regions. The West Indian tour, if it is made, is not expected to start until after Mr. Hower has been in Florida a week or two. On-Health Trip to Africa BOMBAY, India, Jun. 5.—The Aga Khan, head of the Indian Mosques, left unfriendly for Europe today under medical advice after only three weeks' stay in India. In a parting message to the pilgrions of his followers, the Aga Khan asked them not to indulge in the even more dangerous and exhorted them to be loyal and give every help to the government in maintaining law and order. He will go to Tripoli to recuperate. U. N. I. A. ACQUIRES FINE PROPERTY FOR INTERNATIONAL H'DQUARTERS (From The Jamaica Mail, Dec: 11) Mr. Marcus Garvey has decided to establish the international headquarters of the U. N. I. A. in Jamaica and the Association has recently purchased "Edelweiss" a fine property on the Slipe road, where the headquarters are now located. Last night a big function was held at the headquarters to mark the new step that has been taken. Several hundred persons were present. On the platform were Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Garvey, Miss Vinton Davis, Mr. H. A. Z. Himeppe, O. B. B.; Mr. C. B. Johnson, Mr. Green, philippe. Mr. Garvey and his back supporters would in future be country for the Negro people of Houston and St. Andrew. They will carry on their own social life there with dignity, honest and respect. Within the next six months, he hoped to bring a moving picture house, one of the biggest in the country, and the latter also JERUSALEM, Jan. 8. — A mem- ment is now on foot in Palestine to change the status of the country from a mandated territory to a British domination. The ordinator of the idea is Calanel Joahil Wedgewood, a mem- ber of Parliament, whose plan has begun to find favor with several political leaders in Palestine. Vladimir Jabotinsky, head of the Zionist Revisionist party, has been critically responsible for the sponsoring of the domination idea here. The attitude of Mr. Jabotinsky toward this movement has astounded the British authorities, with whom he has been closely associated. He gratifies because of the revolutionary ideas during the two years immediately after the war. In a recent address before an audience numbering several thousands he expressed the opinion that Palestine as a British definition would be better able to defend Jewish rights and claims than Palestine under a British mandate. Thus far this plan would be quite agreeable to Great Britain, but Mr Jabotinky goes to the extreme by demanding a Jewish high commissioner and unrestricted colonization of the whole of Palestine as well as Transjordan by the Jewish people. He is apparently oblivious of the fact that the Jews constitute as yet only a minority of the inhabitants, and most probably will remain so. for a long time to come. Even with an unrestricted Jewish immigration into Palestine there is little hope for a Jewish majority in this country. The 600,000 Mostiens have not as yet adopted and will not for centuries to come adopt the modern idea of birth control. *Would Annex Sinai Peninsula* Commenting on the proposed change, (Itamar Ben Ayl, in a leading article in the Palestine Weekly, supports the idea of Palestine as a British domina- tion, with the provision that Great Brita- nium compensate Palestine for the los- s of Transjordan by annexing the Sinai Peninsula, south of Palestine, as far as the Suez Canal. He believes that this vast peninsula, although bar- ren and deserted at present, would be necessary for intensive colonization. He is cer- tain that Egypt, to which the Sinai Pen- insula belongs nominally, would not oppose such a move on the part of Great Britain, since it promised this land more than twenty-five years are to Theodore Herzl, the founder of the modern Zionist movement. Although it is, obvious that it is to the interest of Great Britain to favor the dominionization of Palestine, nevertheless, in view of its policy, centuries old, of pleasing the majority of the population over which it rules, it is doubtful whether it will ever consider clamping, the present status, because of the overwhelming majority of Moslems. South African. Students Study New York Life NEW YORK, Jan. 7- Thirty-seven South African students, who arrived on Saturday to tour the Eastern States, were guests that night at a dinner given at the Town Hall Club by the National Student Federation of the United States. The visitors were welcomed by Dr. Stephen P. Duggan, director of the Institute of International Education. Thomas Thorpe of Cape Town, leader of the student group, replied on behalf of the visitors. The group, which includes twenty-five young women and twelve men, arrived in Boston on the "Admiral" They will be in New York until Thursday, when they leave on their tour.

Speeches were delivered by Miss Vinton Dattie Mrs. Garvey, Mr. Simpson, Mr. C. D. Johnson and a final address by Mr. Garvey. A band of music was in attendance and songs and solo were rendered. One item of the musical which depicted the large audience and the audience in the hungry midst. Singers by Mr. Bryant and Miss Grace and Garp responded to the tremendous applause. Mr. Garvey also mentioned that in August next year a big convention of the Association will be held in Sequim, which shows will be representative of the world. we are instructed to establish that relations between the countries and people are approaching a crisis. The all-parties conference at Calcutta under the leadership of B. M. K. Gandhi, has formally declared that unless the British government, before January 1, 1869, accepts what is known as the "Nehru Constitution" for India (an instrument which confers virtual independence), Indiana will cease all pretense of co-operation and civil obedience. LINKING AMERICA AND WEST INDIES BY PLANE-LINE M. M. L. Fla., Jpn. 8—America's airline linking five nations with this country was inaugurated here today with the departure of four mail-passenger planes of the Pan-American airways for Havana, Porto Rico and the Bahamas. They bore an array of distinguished passengers, including Postmaster-General Harry S. New, William P. McCraakon, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Aviation, and Miss Amelia Earhart, trunastatic flyer. Preceded by ceremonies which included playing of the American, Cuban, Porto Rican, Dominican and British national airs, the first ship took off for Havana at 8:07 a.m. It carried fifteen sacks of mail and four passengers, among whom were Mr. McCraakon and Miss Earhart. A second Havana plane, carrying more mail and one passenger, got away sixteen minutes later. The Postmaster-General himself loaded the ship on the Porto Rico plane, then climbed aboard and departed with it at 9:23. He intended to disembark at Havana, the first step and return here by plane during afternoon. Accompanying him were W. Irving Glover, second Assistant Postmaster-General; E. R. White, superintendent of foreign math; Mayor E. G. Sewell of Miami, Edgar N. Goff, president of the Keystone Loening Aeronautical Corporation, and V. E. Shenan, an official of Pan-American Airways, Inc. The fourth plane winged away for Nassau, Bahamas, at 9:06. Equiped With Radio: Multi-colored amphibian planes, radio equipped, were in staffing service over the 1,450-mile Pan-American route, which lies over Havana, Camagüey and Santiago, Cuba; Port an Prince, Haiti; Santo Domingo city, Dominican Republic, and San Juan, Porto Rico, at the far tip of the West Indies. Daily service will be maintained between Miami and Havana, a distance of 261 miles, while mailings will be three times weekly to the other points, including Nassau. Plans are, being made to extend the route later to Panama via Havana and the central American republics. U. S. Attorney Praises Negroes' Contribution to New York's Progress NEW YORK, Jan. 9—Ne race has contributed more to the progress of this city than the Negro, United States Attorney Tuttle declared yesterday in an address, praising the part played in the Vestris disaster by the Negro seamen and firemen. Mr. Tuttle spoke at the Annual meeting of the National Negro Congress of Colored People, in the Mount Olivet Baptist Church, 120th street and Lenox avenue. "The sinking of the Vestris, proved that there is no distinction of color in the fraternity of valor," he said. "The story of Lionel Lecoris is a story of a hero of the sea. His colored follows on that ill-fated ship were equally brave and we cannot protest too strongly against the injustified attempt to foil responsibility for the death of a farm. Reviewing New York's growth, Mr. Tuttle asserted that the Negro had been a vital force in shaping its character and progress. In conducting the affairs of this city, he said, the Negro has shown that he can work "arm in arm" with white persons on "a plane of equality." According to the report of William Pickens, field secretary of the association, there are more than 15,000,000 members of the country now. He said his organization now has members 16,000 of whom are white, "fighting for expropriation and American civilization." Arthur B. Spingarn, vice president of the association, was chairman of the meeting. At its close money was collected for the association's activities. Huilh Bare Aultations PORT-AU-PRINCE, Fla., for CUBA. Upper school from the United States the junior Huilh Bare school has entered a law society, the介生介生介生 of "municipalities." Huilh Bare school has more money than the school will be obliged to share of support from a municipal school named. Yet so charismatic and so fine do words and phrases become when they, are applied to Indian politics that it has surplied few experts in Britain on Indian affairs to find Gandhi, on the day following this grave gesture, explaining to the special correspondent of "The London Telegraph" that his followers realize they have little chance of enforcing such drastic measures and that "all that really matters is that British leaders make within the year some serious and definite move toward us." "Then," Gandhi concludes, "ultimatums and time limits will not matter." However, in the expectation that Gandhi would place upon the all-parties conference the responsibility for some such interpretation—as he has in fact done—even such a stanchly progressive British newspaper as "The Manchester Guardian" confesses that it becomes difficult to take very seriously the proclamations of extreme Indian Nationalists. "The Guardian" goes on to point out what must be recognized universally among people who seek to delve deeply into the Indian situation; that for the sake of its prestige alone the British government cannot right to the uplift the Indian Nationalism empire. Comprensible elements, whose deocrines are anthems to Indian capitalists and landlords; that it includes Pan-Islamic extremists whose dreams of Mohametom domination frighten Hindus. In a word, the Indian nationalist movement shows lines of cleavage which have existed since the post-war Hindu-Muslim alliance collapsed, and Gandhā's personal appeals are by no means what they were then. Gandhā once more serves as the instrument of progressivism when he voices fear testily apparently chotic position may lead the Simon Commission, which is now gathering data to be submitted to the British Parliament on India's claim to domination status or independence, to recommend in effect that no further adventures in self-government should be permitted to such a volatile population. That some Indians in India feel sentiments skin to skin are expressed by "The Guardian" is instanced by the comment of the influential Calcutta "Statesman", which poses the question: "If, when it next meets, the Indian Congress is to become the advocate of revolution, what is to be the attitude of the Indian government toward that body?" Such comments give hardly fail to produce an effect upon the Simon investigators, and at the moment it can only be said that, viewed from London, the extension of measures for the self-regiment of India seems to be definitely darkened by the recent action of the Indian Nationalists. No More Exploitation The "Correspondence of Eastern and Oppressed Peasants" comments as follows on the recent Calcutta conference which is now the subject of world-wide discussion: INDIAN NATIONALIST MOVEMENT The National Congress of India will open at Calcutta on December 22, lasting till the end of the month. Various problems concerning India will be brought up for discussion, the most important of all being the question of national independence. The constitution of the First Congress in 1884, it was stipulated that (1) to enable all competent workers in the cause of national progress to become known to each other, (2) to discuss and decide upon the possible operations to be carried out, and to endearling your lustily, and put the least important, (3) to form the garm of a native Parliament which would constitute in a few years an unassailable reply to the assertion that India was still wholly unfit, for any form of representative institutions. To look after one's own affairs is an inherent birthright of every man and of every face an such inherent birthright is not to be disputed or overcrowned upon by others on whatever ever ground.

PETTIS' ADDRESS Mr. J. Petite spoke on "The Rising of a Nation." The rise of the Negro to place and power, he said, was but in accordance with the whole trend of history, which showed the unceasing rise and Fall of nations. Marcus Garvey had been chosen by God to lead Negroes, no matter where domplored. He, the speaker, was-born and reared in America, and he had little patience for any one seeking to make a cleavage in the ranks of the race by harping upon birthplace. One thing more, he would advise the membership to cease harping on Christianity and the religious question. Marcus Garvey had told no one not to believe in God. On the contrary, he told the members to believe in the God that created all. Their time was better spent considering ways and means for the redemption of Africa along the lines the great leader had indicated. MR8. CAPER8 RETURNS Mrs. Emily Capers, one of the earliest members of the organization, who was away from New York on a visit South, was then introduced. She said she had returned to New York impressed with the permanent nature of the work the Hon. Marcus Garvey had done in America. He had left his imprint for good on every community. "Let us," she said, "praise God for the man He has sent to lead us out of this degradation." HON. MME. DE MENA'S ADDRESS Hon. Muse, M. L. T. de Mone, International Organizer, next spoke. She said, "I am glad—again to go there after a trip from Boston down to the Gulf of Mexico—New Orleans." It is key positive to bring greetings from the people. "The condition of the Negro in his City life is improving quite a deal. One of the most remarkable things and one of the most significant to our group is the racial consciousness that has been awakened in the hearts of our people all over this country. I am pleased to note that down in New Orleans where class and color prejudice was so rife and where some professional people were briefed to shun the Universal Negro Improvement Association, all are now thronging to the Division there, having awakened to the fact that Marquis Garvey, a born leader, had given to the race a broad and substantial programme and platform upon which to stand." (Applause.) 3he Grew in Courage · Mime de Mena then told of an incident where a Negro woman who owned a laundry, becoming discouraged, arranged to sell it to some white people, and they had actually taken it over and had put white girls in it to run it, but, imbued with the new spirit of Garvieship, she determined that it could be run successfully and she went and told the 'prospective purchasers that she had changed her mind and did not wish to sell any more. She placed 40 Negro girls in the laundry in place of white girls. The teacher, speaker, left New Orleans the laundry was doing well, receiving the support of the colored people. Mme. de Mena also told of the formation of a clinic by Dr. Peters, the president of the division. The clinic was located in the Liberty Hall, and was well appointed, and one Monday morning no less than five doctors attended to give their services free to the clinic. Another fine thing the New Orleans Division had was an evening school where those who could not go to school in the daytime were given instruction. The speaker then referred to a great Christmas tree staged by the Missing Children's Office at 10:00 p.m. employees. The function was held in the Liberty Hall of St. Louis. She had the honor of being called upon to address the great gathering, and she was confident that the cause of Garveyism was aided by the evening's events. Mime de Mera then launched into a characteristically vigorous and eloquent appeal to the membership throughout the country not to be disturbed by the unsettling efforts of the enemy. The members must not permit doubt and misgiving to assail them but must go forward with the work, with the power loyality and confidence in the order, the devotion and the great program which he had given to them. HON. E. B. KNOX' ADDRESS Hon. E. B. Knox, personal representative of the President-General, was the last speaker. He said he was glad to return to Lilac and find each and every doing their job up the principles of the organization so nobly led by the Hon. Marcus Garvey. "I know," he continued, "many of your minds are agile, many of you are very- anxious over the conditions that have recently developed concerning the future welfare of our beloved organization and the execution of the programme according to the plung of our great leader. We wonder in our minds just what will be the outcome, but I can answer any query like that with a clear conviction that everything will be well in the outcome of our great organization. I can say with a clear conscience that any thing and every thing that is done to embarrass the Hon. Sir Marcus Garvey or to impede the cause is a direct ship at the Negro world at large." Proceeding, Mr. Kipox said the Negro Negroes was defrauding any one he the speaker was at a loss to understand White men pointed against the black saithers were the same thing was wrong with the negroes doing so. This was having on their own? The deeting of the Negro, observed Mr. Knox, is as important as the defting of any other people in the world, and what he could not understand was why the white man was so long realising the negro is a human being. Making the People Think Making the people think One thing, however, that was very significant about the incident of the Negro newspaper coping what the white newspaper had said that they claimed that the Hon. Marcus Garvey is the most courageous leader among the Negroes of the world. One paper in particular said that the white man should understand that the Hon. Marcus Garvey had made his people think, and that was the important thing. It said if you just make Negroes think and keep on thinking, after a while they would think straight and right, and it said too much importance way and method he was employing in making the race think. And I said to myself, commented Mr. Knox, "the Hon. Marcus Garvey has set the Negro thinking." Mr. Knox then, announced, that he would-soon be sailing for Jamaica for an important conference with Mr. Garrison on matters connected with the organization, and he would take that opportunity of impressing upof the membership throughout "the" country—of carrying on in the same splendid way they were at the present time. There was much work to be done, much preparation looking toward the coming international convention, and he hoped that on his return from Jamaica he would receive nothing but good reports as to the conduct of the various units. KEMAL'S NEW ALPHABET EXCITES MOSLEM BEARS Design to Crush Islam Seen in New Laws — Armed Revolt Against Kemal and Government Rumored CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. 7.—Fear of Moslems that their sacred religion was being undermined by the Introduction of the Lathal alphabet and other measures was believed today to have resulted in ploas which were suppressed by the government at Sivas and Brousa. The new alphabet became effective on New Year's Day, when street corsers beat drums in every village throughout Turkey calling on males and females between 16 and 26 years old to enroll in the new national schools. All illiterates were required to take a four month course in the new A B C's. There have been reports of plots at Stamoula as well as Skans and Regusae and these have caused considerable excitement in Constantinople. It was rumored that the plotter were arming an armed revolt against Ghazi Mimntha Kemal and the government. Whether the Stamoula plot grew out of resentment over the modern resistance learned, feared, and known that steven persons were under arrest there. It seemed that the Mosloma at Brousa and Sikas, however, feared that recently introduced reforms were designed to crush Islam. The daily newspaper, Idam said that the Dirty Turks recently arrested at Brousa were engaged in spreading propaganda, detrimental to the acceptance of the new A B75s, and expected to go on trial shortly and the court proceedings were awaited with great Integrat. If convicted, their sentences were expected to be severe. While the government officials apparently were completely masters of the situation at Brounais and Sivas, it was stated that they were having difficulty in unraveling the Stamboul affair. This trouble apparently centered upon the Hameen, who were supposed to be the chief organizer, and it was said that her evidence was "most unantisfactory." The authorities were puzzled as to how to deal with her, since she is the wife of an Egyptian doctor. LEAP YEAR BLAMED FOR DROP IN POSTAL RECEIPTS WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.—A decrease in the postal revenues of fifty cities in December is reported for the first time in fourteen years. The post office statistician blame it on the fact that 1928 being leap year, there were fifty-three Sundays and five of them came in December. The receipts for the month were $38,973,262.93, as compared with $44,522,764.29 in December, 1927, when there were four Sundays, a decline of $38,924.47, or 2.08 per cent. The decrease on the basis of thirty-one days, the statistician found, is transformed to an increase of 2.88 per cent when computed on the basis of business day for business day. The New York City, Department revenue year was $41,997,948, as compared with $42,997,948, or 2.08 per cent, when computed on the basis of business day for business day. Adjusted for the other data given in the first two paragraphs, the department revenue year was $41,997,948, as compared with $42,997,948, or 2.08 per cent, when computed on the basis of business day for business day. NAVY MEN'S ATTACKS ON NEGROES IN NEW YORK SUBJECT OF INQUIRY MONROVIA, Liberia, Jan. 5. —A tribute to American friendship for Liberia was a feature of the annual message of President Charles D. B. King of Liberia to the Legislature. Speaking of the friendly relations that had at all times exited between the United States and Liberia, he said: "From the foundation of this republic-the attitude of the United States has been that of a true country and protector to this country in many difficulties. President King pictured the progress of the country during the last year as 'phenomenal,' with revenues steadily rising, passing the million dollar mark each month during the summer, and continuing to rise. Road building would be an important part of public activities during the year, he indicated, adding to many miles of new roads built during the last year.

The Honduran foreign minister made public today protests to Nicaragua and Colombia, regarding the boundary treaty concluded between the two countries last March. The protesters were forwarded in November. The treaty is regarded as assuming to the United States, the rights to, Important approaches to any interoceanic canal through Nicaragua. The protests, as disclosed by Foreign Minister Augusto Coinion, read: "I must express the surprise of my government to see Included in a treaty to see Included in the Treaty of Renopee and Quita Sea whose possession and dominion are claimed and sustained by Honduras with titles of undeniable ownership." The United States has lighthouses on the two islands hamed, which are about 200 miles off the Nicaraguan coast and leased from Colombia.

(From The Rand Daily Mail) "I have not seen anything of the document, and I only know about it through the cable in the Rand Daffy Mall." I have no information to give you at present." General Secretary of the Communist Party of South Africa. "If such a document arrives I can assure you that the I. C. U. will have nothing whatever to do with it." Mr. W. G. Ballinger, organizer of the I. C. U. "If the cabled reports of the contents of this instruction are correct it is serious, and if it came to our notice things of this kind were circulating among the natives we should take immediate and drastic action." Major Taylor, District Commander of Police. These three statements were made to a Raid. Daily Mail representative yesterday concerning the report from Riga, via London, that the political secretariat of the Communist International had laid down important directions for work among natives in South Africa. These directions call for the reorganization of Communist forces in South Africa and concentration of efforts to sitir up natives against whites generally, and English whites in particular. Active Propaganda It seems quite clear that this document has not yet reached Johannesburg, but the police are aware that active propaganda is going on among the natives in their own territories. A police official said that agents were abroad in the territories advising the natives that Americans were coming by airplane to help drive the white man out of the land. They went far as to prohibit them from keeping white fowls because of their color and advised them for the sake of their own health not to use European cooking utensils. "The Communist influence on the natives is more serious than people generally think. If white South Africa knew just how much concentration is being put by the Communist Party on the natives of South Africa they would sit up and take notice." This emphatic view was expressed by an official whose work brings him into close contact with the native race in the Union, and there is reason to think before long disclosures will be made which will bring home to the authoritec the need for keeping a very observant eye on activities in certain English Primate Heads Move to Abolish Hanging LONDON, Jan. 6.—A large section of British public opinion, supported by Dr. Cosmo-Gordon Lanz, Archbishop of Canterbury, is determined to do away with capital punishment in England, where a century ago there were 200 crimes punishable by death and men might be hanged for sleep stealing, and young children could be executed. A powerfully supported position asking Parliament to abolish the death penalty has been launched to the public for signature. It is being pressed by a vigorous educational campaign. The petition will be presented to the House of Commons next spring. The movement against capital punishment, which has been steadily gaining in force the last few years, was invited to sudden action by the recent case of Oscar Sisker, condemned to death eighteen years ago for murder, his sentence commuted to life imprisonment, and who recently was declared innocent of the crime with which he was charged and set free. CKS ON NEGROES SUBJECT OF INQUIRY Richmond and 'U. S. S. Arkansas instructing the executive officers of the respective ships to conduct an immediate investigation and forward a renv to the commandant's office. Members of the crew of these two vessels are alleged to have beaten two Negroes on December 21. Admiral de Seguier also had the representatives of the Negro organization confer with executive officers of the U. S. S. Tezza, which is in dry office, who were implicated with the names of the sailors who are alleged to have injured a Negro man and woman at the midtown station on December 21. Mr. Johnson will forward a telegram to Secretary Wilbur today requesting that he issue a specific warning to members of the navy against any possible recurrence of the attacks. Mr. Johnson said that more than a dozen of ships have gone and attacked and sank vessels by militants. The majority of ships attacked and sank additional vessels from another or simply any vessels according to Mr. Johnson. He said that power of Britain supporting intelligence teams of allying forces could also have helped to the attaining success of the navy and continued that power and continued that success.

THE National Interracial Conference of America has done its work and, apparently, is about to return to nothingness, from whence it came. This conference, composed of 16 national organizations, interracial in their activities, met recently at Washington, D.C., to have a heart to heart discussion of race relations. We are told that for two years prior to the sitting of this august body a committee of learned Americans was busy collecting data to present to the conference concerning unanswerable truths in regard to the exhibitions of race prejudice in America. And after all this preparation, what do we have? The Negro presents his case vehemently, but politely. The white man, in some cases, presented his case vehemently, but politely. The conference ends, and, lo! we find ourselves back at the same old stand, deluding ourselves into the belief that freedom can be obtained for the asking. Perhaps the most encouraging report of the conference was the statement by one writer that "because of the careful planning and the intelligence of most of the discussions, it was inevitable that there should be those who wished to see the conference made a permanent organization. The committee on future plans, however, recommended that the conference, having done its work, disband and not bring into existence another organization. This was done and the National Interracial Conference, upon publication of its report of the proceedings and of the report of the findings committee, will come to an end within a few weeks." There seems to be no good reason for a few intellectuals, white and black, to get together so that they might present from a platform information that is possessed by the entire group and information that can easily be given to the work in book form without holding any sort of meeting. Interracial conferences are hypocritical social gatherings of a few whites who have the grace to be ashamed of the conduct of their racial brothers (or, at least, to pretend that they are) and a few Negroes who, always hoping for a better day, are grateful for an apparently sympathetic audience. These sorts of conferences have been growing in popularity during the past decade. Some would have us believe that these advocates of racial tolerance are lessening the strain, but facts are all to the contrary. The Negro faces as much prejudice today as he ever has faced, and in more devilish and exasperating forms. And discussing the situation cannot alter it, because those who perpetuate it never will dissect it. They spend their time devising plans to make it worse. Prejudice is a state of mind of which contempt is the chief manifestation. When contempts can be coupled with oppression the only remedy is to come out from under the hand of the oppressor. For the Negro continually to be telling the white man how bad the race is being treated may be an emotional safety valve, but it never can be anything more. When the Negro provides for himself a national home he will then have equipped himself with the kind of argument that the white man heeds. The white man may never like a brown or a black skin, but the day the Negro finds himself the educational, economic and political peer of the white man, there will be no need to worry, for all else will be added unto him. Interracial conferences, well-meant though they may be, never can amount to much as long as they are held between oppressor and oppressed. No conference means much unless the odds are fairly even. Negroes, should hold more frequent and larger race conferences to the end that they may acquire the power that will make the interracial conference a company of plain-speaking men and women and not a gang of back scratchers. NEWSPAPER OWNERSHIP in message, appearing on the front page of the survey, President-General of the University Association, announces that The Black Man along similar lines as The Negro World, live on Saturday, March 2. It was origi Man should make its bow to the world that was explained, the failure on the part of so far to headquarters the funds they had collected receipt of some of the printing machines in a previous issue of The Negro World, to the organization IN his weekly message, appearing on the front page of this issue, Hon. Marcus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, announces that The Black Man, a new daily, to be conducted along, similar lines as The Negro World, will make its initial appearance on Saturday, March 2. It was originally intended that The Black Man should make its bow to the world this month, but, as Mr. Garvey has explained, the failure on the part of some collectors to forward sooner to headquarters the funds they had collected has resulted in delaying receipt of some of the printing machines. As we stated in a previous issue of The Negro World, the starting of a daily newspaper by the organization should have the unqualified support of every member. It is a big undertaking, of far-reaching importance to the race, and it must receive the unstinted financial support of the membership now and for months to come. Newspapers, especially magazines which, in the very nature of things, have, at the outset, to present, opposition, do not become financial successes over time. It devives upon them to hammer their way through to success, while doing this, there must be capital to draw upon. The members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the members of states at large must furnish the necessary capital for this epoch-early undertaking, and we are sure they will do this. Determine that March 2 will be a memorable date, and it will be Contribute generously to the fund for The Black Man, not forgetting while doing so. The Negro World. The fortitude of the programme of the Universal Negro Improvement Association demands this. AIRPLANES IN THE CARIBBEAN As we read of the inauguration of a commercial airplane line between the United States and the large islands of the Caribbean and the Bahamas and think of the good that will acerate to all the countries concerned from this project, our minds naturally turn to a consideration of the poor transportation facilities existing in other parts of the Caribbean. We refer to the islands, chiefly British, which comprise the Leeward and Windward groups. From British Guiana, on the north coast of South America, to Barbados, the easternmost island of the group, is 396 miles, and these colonies of the British Empire still depend on spasmodic steamship schedules and the slow and hazardous though more frequent schooner service for communication. Between several islands travel is almost entirely confined to these small sailing ships, which serve also as mail carriers. Often they are manned by men with but a smattering knowledge of navigation, and mishap is frequent. It seems to us that it would be an excellent thing if the United States would extend its airplane service to embrace all the Caribbean islands and British Guiana. The West Indian islands touched would benefit no less than the United States, which, by geography, seems fated to exert a greater influence on the fortunes of the whole Caribbean. The British authorities seem as indisposed to do anything in this regard, as it has been indifferent to the economic and industrial welfare of these outposts; and if jealousy of American enterprise should galvanize them into action, so much the better. Some time this month representatives from the various British islands and mainland colonies of the Caribbean will meet in the island of Barbados to discuss the question of West Indian Federation—a question broached over a decade ago. We venture the prophecy that nothing but talk will result from this conference, but the conference may not be held in vain if it will discuss a practical plan for linking up the islands by airplane. A start could be made with the carrying of mails alone, and passenger transport could follow. PERMANENT PEACE, OR EXTINCTION Dr. Hilton Ira. Jones, a research chemist, told the Executives' Club of Chicago in a recent talk of a new poison gas called cacaculic ixacanide. One shift of it, he said, would kill a man. A lot of it "would destroy armies as a man might snuff out a candle." He added that he talked reluctantly because the Government has made it known that it does not wish to have the subject discussed. He feels that the nations of the world are, however, not eager to use this poison in the next war to-end war, because it always kills. "I believe that they are seeking a gas that will incapacitate 'mon' and not kill them." This is partly dented by Major General A. A. Fries, chief of our Chemical Warfare Service. He admits that the Government is seeking a gas that will incapacitate rather than kill men, but he denies that any attempt is being made by the Government to suppress discussion of poison gases. This may well be. The fact is that every nation in Europe, as well as the United States, is seeking secretly to develop a gas which will do the utmost damage. We have recently seen a statement that forty-five tons of an existing gas would destroy all of London. Sir James E. Deane of St. Andrew's University in Scotland, speaking last summer before the American Chemical Society, warned his hearers that the chemical industry was preparing materials more deadly by far than those used in the late war. He declared that no control of a country could prevent its chemists and its chemical factories from planning a poison warfare and turfing to the production thereof on a few hours' notice. All of which means that those who are working for the next war are literally working against the existence of civilization, and that those who fight disarmment and permanent peace are trying to save humanity from annihilation.—The Nation. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS And so it is best to look out into the unknowled reaches of the new year with as much complicity as possible, determined to lead a good life, to play the game squarely, to be as ready as possible for any emergency, to live without regret, to plan, safeguard and provide wisdom. Under the right stance at life, every year can be a good year. There may be sorrow and grief and set-back, but all these need not condemn the year or cast one down hopelessly. There is always that homely, almost trivolous philosophy that no matter how had a thing may be it could be worse. There is always a silver lining to a dark cloud if it is sought earnestly enough.—California Eagle. The fact that we are all human, and that that relationship ought to be very close and pervasive and fundamental, seems to escape us in the presence of a lot of other facts that are not of so very great importance. But if we could forget and wipe out the things that tend to separate us, and then if we could forget ourselves a little more than we do, take a little more interest in the other fellow, and go on to develop a real and warm spirit of friendliness, this would become a much more comfortable world, to live, in than it has ever been before—Portland Advocate. The pleasures of the world are deceitful and disappointing; they promise more, than they give. They trouble us in seeking them; they do not satisfy when we possess them, and they make us despair in losing them.—National Baptist Voice. "Bad luck," as some of us put it, may be traced directly to bad management. Even in the struggles of life, you must use your head—Oklahoma Eagle. Will the church in this age of prosperity be able to keep alive the spirit of worship? That is one great question and upon it depends the future of our country. For, after all, America is got in the building and machinery and comprehensive industrial organizations as much as it is in the hearts of the people. If we shall be able to keep the hearts of the people right, to keep a high sense of justice, of brotherhood, of fellowship, of providence, then we shall have a happy year. —Christian Receiver. The loyal, faithful and patriotic American Negroes want full co-operation in all things common. They have proved themselves worthy citizens. They are patient—they have waited long; they are waiting still to be accorded the full rights of citizenship, economic and political justice—Shreveport Sun. We have so much to be thankful for. Let us take an inventory of the past to determine what progress has been made, how great the success, the failures and the quiesces. If we have been successful, let us be thankful. If we have had failure we should be better that we have not. No failure is so great that there is not something to be thankful for. The opportunity to be able to develop as one sees fit should be an occasion of great thanksgiving. This opportunity is presented to every man. The limit of a man's attainments is determined by his ideals, his ambition, his will—California Voice. Resolve that we practice and encourage self-reliance. The spirit depends on ourselves to help ourselves. That we cease the overdone habit of soliciting the "Folks Down-Town" for aid in every little effort we undertake. No race or individual can hope to keep the respect of the people of the community if they are always in the office, stores and homes of people begging and soliciting. "Beggars are not choosers and when we come to the office, we shall be grateful because we dare not oppose the will of those who feed us—Omaha Monitor. With the new year year come new opportunities, new hopes and new duties, therefore we must make resolution to be grateful to the man who uses us to be men. Men who are willing to play a man's part in human affairs and get beaten with anything less than a man's part from the other fellow. As we anticipate the future, we imagine we hear the cry: "Go forward." The suggestion is: Keep diligence; face the rising gap with our eyes on the star of work. Hope in God. Shift to愈察; ever ready to do what to do; purna; purna together for the due occasion goal—and we will get somewhere during the coming year—Mr. Louis Argen. Race Prejudice Satisfied By Presentation of Negro As Comedian in Opera FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES The Negro leader of a jazz orchestra becomes a black-face comedian in the version of "Jonny Spelliet Aur" Ernst Krenn's short film of the Metropolitan will present the first time in America Saturday evening, Jan. 19. The change in the original Krenn libretto was deemed "more suitable for American audiences," it was exhalted at the opera house last night. This is the name role to be sung by Michael Bohnen, bass-bartone of the Metropolitan and equally associated with the more patrician parts of the orchestra fantasy. The opera is described as "interpret the rhythms and atmospheres of modern life in this age of technical science." When Mr. Catti-Casaaza first announced the importation of the Kremlin opera for the present season, a good deal of doubt was expressed concerning the propriety of allowing a Negro to sing before the sacred circle of parterre boxes. The present change, understood to have been made with the consent of the author and composer, is regarded as a tactful compromise. The opera was first produced Feb. 11, 1927, at the Liepzig Opera House and since then has occasioned much controversy in European musical circles. The Black Man's Burden Under the head, "The Black Man's Burden," appears the following letter in last week's issue of "The Nation." To the Editor of The Nation: Str: Capital has never presented as sinister and malevolent a front to the Negro laborer as have the white labor unions. It is far less criminal to work labor twelve hours a day in sweatshops at a minimum wage, without safety appliances than it is to rob the Negro laborer out of the job by a self-righteous attack against the "open shop." I know a Negro bricklayer, a skilled workman, whose father was a bricklayer before him. He has no other vocation. He has spent his best years in the labor force. He is a man and the winter is coming. He would join a union gladly, but white unions won't admit him. Our liberal white friends urge us not to irritate white unions by being "scabs." They tell us to wait until they can persuade the white unions to see the light. But who can wait when winter has come and there is no coal, no food? Negro boys looking for a vocation find a blank wall. They are not allowed to apprentice. They are refused admission to white unions. And yet, well-meaning social workers wonder at the "inherent criminal disposition of the Negro." In the face of these facts can you give me any good reason for being a Socialist or joining with the "organized forces of labor to overthrow a despotic capitalistic regime"? Why shouldn't Negro labor organize to defeat every attempt of white labor to bargain collectively with capital? Why shouldn't we join in this cutthroat game and help capital throttle white labor? This it seems to me in the only way to make white labor see the light. And so I urge all Negro laborers to adopt as their motto: "Hurrah for the Scab and the Open Shop and To Hell with the Unions." Fought in Vain By HEYWOOD BROUN In The Nation. It was not business but sentiment which fomented the strife (The Civil War). The Southern notion of aristocracy was at stake. This was a drawing-room and not a counting-house war. The pity of all it lies in the fact that neither side had the patience to count ten. Within twenty years the issues which made the Civil War would have disappeared or been well on their way to extinction. It is perhaps fantastical to assume that there would have been no such thing as race prejudice. If slavery had been abolished by the widening of the Southern States and yet I think it not unreasonable to believe that it might never have taken its present hideous and violent form if emancipation had not come as a war measure. Southern ambivalence toward the Negro depends upon a sense of guilt. The stuff which every Georgian pulps in speeches about his old Negro Mammy is not insincere. It is the sentimental arc in the swing of the pendulum. Most guilty men will eventually be moved to make atonement if only they can have the attained feeling which comes of a free-will offering. But when a bayonet is thrust against anybody's belly he will rather than admit that he is to if a frown. Or he will live to perpetrate the wrong. In spirit the South had never miscipulated the Negro. When, there has been plowed there can never be gone. The enemy which must be punished. The enemy which must be punished. The enemy which must be punished to the Civil War—it we had only made! Is Monroe Doctrine a Bar to Peace? The British Commission has given for alliance to settle the potentialities of a joint military establishment of Algiers, before the commission of Europe, a similar group of King's forces. In 1894 the King is interested an engineer, Carlos Ibanez de Ibero, in the project and paid for a survey of his private purge. On Oct. 18, 1811, Sener Ibanez submitted his report. It presented plans for two tunnels, one shorter and deeper than the other. The nearest points between the two coasts were not then contemplated for the soundings had revealed a maximum depth of 2,000 feet, too low to undermine, and bulldog construction had not then produced the means by which the tunnels could be built. Nevertheless, it is the shortest route which the Royal Commission will first consider, for to the fact that both ends rest on Spanish territory has been added the possibility of bridging the chasms. In the last ten years tubular construction has made great strides. The King's original scheme contemplated the adhesion of the signatories of the Algeciras Conference of 1906, or, at least, the support of France and Britain, who in 1923 joined Spain in the creation of the International Zone of the Mediterranean, in the southern terminal of the tunnels protected by Senor Ibanez. When the other powers interested in Morocco proved 'cold to the project' Spain in 1928 asked for full control of the International Zone and even suggested that a mandate for the purpose be granted her by the League of Nations, but she refused such a position, and finally her claim to predominance was definitely turned down by the Tangier Conference of last Summer, in which Italy for the first time participated. Then the King, who, for technical reasons, believed he might now consider the United States determined to an independent country, set aside a gesacras, six miles west of the British fortress of Gibraltar is the result. The material, cultural, strategic and commercial values of "a tunnel under the strait are incalculable. Only the most ohylous need be mentioned. Here: it would bring Europe and South America, via Africa, within a six days' journey; a journey could be made from The Monroe Doctrine was characterized as the most "formalistic obstacle to the peace of the world" in an address recently at a luncheon of the Foreign Policy Association at the Hotel Astor by Salvador de Madjaraga, a Spanish and a professor at Oxford University. Brig. Gen. Charles H. Shaw, who chaired the argument, was equally emphatic in his praise of what he described as the "cornerstone of our foreign policy." Professor de Madjaraga argued that while the Monroe Doctrine might once have served a useful purpose, the very fact that it was benevolent more than a century ago was in itself an argument that it could hardly be the best instrument in a world which has changed no fundamentally during that century. He pleaded the cause of the Latin-American countries, which he believed had been in regard to which they had no option and over which they exercised no control. The two speakers joined issue most directly on this question of the propriety of the United States "reserving to itself the sole power of deciding matters of continental and even hemispherical scope" without permitting a voice to other American nations until the United States had made the telega which, cumbers both from those at the lunchroom and by telephone from the radio audience, followed the addresses, Courtesy There are hundreds of adoptions of gentlemen, none of them altogether satisfactory. Caroline Newman says it is almost enough to say, that they are those who never give pain. Barrow declares that they are, the men lifted above the vulgar crowd by two qualities: courage and courtesy. It is a polite and pleasant nation that courtesy is innate and not acquired by the young lady"; we think it is mythical. Babies are not polite; kings and queens have lifelong training in the art of being polite. There are many who have society or special manners, for superiors; there are those who are courteous and kind for forgetting entirely about the detriment they do themselves in neglecting to establish the good-will of everybody. The South and the Negro The new spirit in the South is showing itself in no nausea and juster fashion than in the better attitude toward the Negro. The industrialization and mobilization of the region bring certain disadvantages, but unquestionably are raising the colored race out of the status imposed upon it by slavery and the plantation. This is partly an economic consequence of the migration of the Negro northward years has convinced many Southern states that the race must be better treated if the race supply of the region is to be preserved. But beyond this, the housing of sectionals and provincialism is eroding a more reasonable and humane psychology. The same year in which Southern States right-acted into the Republican Presidential column now only uses the same years for which figures are available. The Idea. where to take the ship. In many cases from Ports in Europe and Africa, ships in what are, from Paris to Santiago, Chile to Argentina and the railway across the Atlantic, are on board. In what circumstances Spain has opened its still more ancient shipping-house would be a clearing-house for the Western Europe and Western Africa and South America, for the latter, could hardly survive from improving her land of communication with the ports of Africa nearest the southern terminus of the tunnel. Spain would also reap infinite benefit from the more intensive development of the British, French, Italian, Belgian and Portuguese African possessions which would, inevitably follow the construction of the tunnel to the former Lodon, and the new impulse would be given to the French to build their contemplated trans-Saharan railway. Although Senior Ibanes's report of 1913 did not then contemplate a tunnel at the narrowest width of the strait, he nevertheless made a survey with soundings. From Punta de Guadalmés, just south of Algeciras, due south to Punta Cíes, in the Spanish zone of Morocco, it is only about 13,800 meters, or a little more than 8 3-5 miles. But along that line there are several chams with nearly perpendicular sides, one deeper than $800 meters, and some of them 300 meters across. The commission will now consider the depth from the point of view of new technical data with the possibility of bridging the chams by tubular construction. It is estimated that cost from $35,000,000 to $50,000,000, possibly more. Ibanez's two projects are: 1) a tunnel nel starting near the Bay of Vaqueiros, to the west of Tarifa, and ending in Tangier itself, a distance of twenty miles at a maximum depth of, 1,000 feet; (2) a tunnel between Cape Trafalgar and Punjab, Malabata, northeast of Tangier, a distance of twenty-six miles and with chasms of a maximum depth of 850 feet. Either project, Senior Ibanez estimates, could be completed in five or six years, would cost 4,000,000 francs per kilometer, and the entire cost of construction should be defrayed from receipts within ten years. were frequently directed toward the same issue. General Sherrill frankly contended that it was vital to the Monroe Doctrine that the United States retain sole control over its application. He exclaimed that it was necessary from the floor, asking if he would not agree that in modernizing the Monroe Doctrine it would be advisable to permit a voice in its administration to other American nations. "I would approve of that in all instances where it was possible," he replied, "but only after the United States had already made its decision and determined the policy in the matter. Such actions should be permitted to co-operate in carrying out the policy." Professor de Maduriaja declared that he did not see how it could be possible for the Latin-American nations to accept a unilateral principle by which the most important part of their foreign relations would be determined without their consent. The developments of the last ten years in international relations in Europe have proved, he said, that peace can only be maintained through "international cooperation" in a footing of give and take and in equality of the world—a co-operation which requires that every one of them should be ready to how before the reasonable opinion of the whole." Chinese Women Sold PEKING, Jan. 4—The Rev. F. J. Griffith of the Church of England mission in Tatungfu, in the Province of Shandi, has reported to the International Famine Relief that more than 17,000 women and girls of the new province of Sultan have been sold because of famine destitution. "Many villages have been stripped of women and girls, who were sold to slavery," he reported. "More than 17,000 passers through the Yemeni-Pass, the main highway into inner Sharisi, and the gold fork for approximately 410,000 gold." Brigands were active, he said, adding to the destitution by capturing a caravan of 1,000 camels loaded with rice for the famine sufferers.

Indicating that Uncle's credit is good, although he is still carrying a considerable obligation. It was recalled by treasury officials that the public debt about ten years ago was around $26,000,000,000, a record for this country. During the last calendar year the debt has been reduced by $726,603,316. Although the government's balance sheet on December 31 showed a paper deficit of $168,475,695, treasury officials were confident that the end of the fiscal year, June 30, would show no deficit.

New Orleans Division a *Nagoya* university—academy and student—body will present guest to the public Dec. 10, 2015, in New Orleans, where the possibility of Renaissance will realign the arts and subjects of the Universal Nagoya Improvement Association. On Sunday night, January 13, 1929, Liberty Mall will be packed to its doors with human beings who desire to learn something about the man, Marcus Garvey, and his much talked of program. In Garvey a thief? Is Garvey crazy? Is Garvey a fake? Is Garvey diplomatic? How can Marcus Garvey get into Africa? How can, Nenegrog build for themselves a mighty nation? Isn't the Negro's progress in the Western world a sufficient indication that he is going to enjoy equality with the white people within the next few years? How does the U. N.T. Apostle pose to stop lynching? These are some of the questions that he debubulated in the 1960s, one of the occasion. We trust that all of the members will come out in large numbers and help defend the organization which for many years they have loved and supported. Let us see how much you love Marcus Garvey. On December 31, 1928, and on January 1, 1929, the majority of officers of the divisions in Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana responded to the call of Commissioner Peters for a two-day conference. The conference was marked with the highest type of interest and enthusiasm. The high commissioner formally called the conference to order to discuss the purpose of the meeting with recommendations for growth. The matters discussed at Toronto, Canada, with the Hon. Marcus Carvey and the high commissioners were presented to the congreses by Commissioner Peters. Among the things brought out were: How to work on the world census? Methods of raising funds for the convention; circulation of the petition; ways and means of obtaining the census; I. A.; how to handle disgruntled members; Discussion of minor topics. A discussion of the tentative program of the 1929 convention was led by Mr. E. A. Malone, president of 22-A Division, Mobile, Alabama. Mr. J. W. Williams, assistant to the high commissioner at Baton Rouge, Louisiana, made an eloquent plea for the industrialization of the U. N. I. A. Mr. A. Monroe, Quilport, Mississippi, suggested a more liberal attitude toward the U. N. I. A. with respect to financial support. This gentleman thinks there should be more money given the U. N. I. A. by its members. He cited the records of many organizations to which Negroes belong and to which they give a tent of their weekly earnings. Mr. E. A. Francis of New Orleans, and to the high Commission, requested that members make regular visits to the sick. All delegates were given a chance on Monday night to speak at the press meeting held in their honor at Liberty Hall. The following delegates were present: George J.

After the hymn one verse of the Ethiopian National Anthem was sung, and the speaker of the day in the person of Mr. W. A. Denne was presented and for thirty minutes held his audience spellbound while he drove, home, some sound and sacred truths which did not fall to inspire and convince those, who were fortunate enough to have been present. Mr. Deane spoke from the subject, "The Advent and Mission of Man's Redeemer." The speaker, said, among other things: "The advent or coming of Jesus the Christ was foretold hundreds of years before he came, and the real cause of His coming was to restore or redeem fallen man back to kinship with his Maker and Father; God; to relinstate man as an heir to His Father's kingdom, and to again grant unto him the gift of eternal life, so that death would have no more dominion over him. "That was the true and only cause of Christians coming to earth one thousand nine hundred and twenty-eight years ago. The success of His life work and mission on earth during His short stay of 33 years is well known to us. In that He not only cured the leper, healed the sick and gave sight to the blind; but He gave to humanity a new hope, a new faith and a divine heritage, viz., that whoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but hath everlasting life." Thus He "vinquished death, hell and the grave, and then departed, leaving to mankind and the world the new doctrine of the Brotherhood of Man and the Fatherhood of God, which is hinged on the three cardinal principles of love, faith and charity. But mankind has not improved much under His sublime teaching, and thus He sent into the world 41 years ago a man of African lineage, blood and descent, charged, inspired and divinely commissioned to go out into all the world and to preach the gospel of the Brotherhood of Man and the Fatherhood of God, and to restore the Negroes of the world book to their former heritance and to redeem the great land of their fathers, the continent of Africa, back to their race, and there to set up a great super-government of Negroes, for Negroes and by Negroes, to protect, defend and administer justice, righteousness and equity, not only to the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world, but to all mankind, and above all, to teach humanity the true and only way to 'peace on earth, good will toward men' by dealing justly and honestly with all men, nations, and races and by adhering strictly to the three cardinal principles, love, faith and charity, as laid down by the great Divine Teacher, Jesus the Christ. This man is no less a person than the Hon. Marcus Carvey, whose teaching has revolutionized the entire world and has given to mankind a new concept of the Brotherhood of Man and Fatherhood of God." "His teachings and work shall live long after he has passed from time to eternity, and may we, his disciples, prepare ourselves to be ready to take up his mantle when he shall have laid it down." After Mr. Deane's address Mrs. C. Williams rendered a beautiful solo. "Blessed Story of His Advent." Mr. G. E. Inman read several current topics of importance. The announcements were given out as follows: Sunday, January 6, 1923, will be "Garvey Day." Rav. J. E. Flutterer, pastor of Parks Chapel, will be the speaker of the day.

Dean K. - Since the discovery of the split stem tree, Peter Smith from the United Observatory, Johannesburg—an astronomical riddle which around worldwide interest—and the institution of american observatories in South Africa, the southern portion of Africa is being recognized as a world center for the observation of phenomena of the skies. Morris K. Jessup, astronomer at Bleomfortstein (South Africa) with the Lamont-Hussey Observatory, Michigan University, has now come forward with a comprehensive scheme which will make South Africa supreme as the astronomical site for world observation in the Southern Hemisphere. "I feel," said Mr. Jesup in an interview, "that South Africa requires some big reflecting telescopes in addition to the excellent refractors already in the country. Wonderful work might then be accomplished in observing such Southern sky marvels as the Megellanic clouds and their giant gullets, spiral nebula, and the Milky Way, and perhaps might stellar systems as yet unknown." In referring to the need for better telescopes, he explained that reflector telescopes gathered in greater quantities of light into the focus of the telescope than refractors, and that it would be necessary to raise $5,000,000 to properly equip South African observatories. He thought that one-third of the money might be raised in South Africa for the construction of observatory, grads of approach, buildings and steel structures, and that the balance might be raised in America to pay for, say, three seventy-five-inch reflective telescopes. The reason why he felt so confident in advocating the expenditure of such a large sum of money in South Africa was because the country afforded the best sites for observatories in the Southern Hemisphere, and was, in fact, rapidly becoming a center for the world's astronomical work. There were already, he pointed out, four American institutions represented in South Africa, as well as the Union Observatory at Johannesburg, and the Royal Observatory at Cape Town. There were, however, no reflecting telescopes. One or two more large observatories with large instruments would enable South Africa, to travel even the United States in astronomical science. More observers might be encouraged to come to the country and the building could be undertaken of an observatory so large that it could not only dominate the Southern research field, but also become a very considerable factor in the North. He suggested that cooperation between such a large station and other Southern stations would enable very valuable work to be done. In the South much work awaits the first observatories with the new equipment, Mr. Jesup went on. "The photography of nebulae and clusters and of the Milky Way will open up lines for continuing the attack begun in the North on the structure and extent of the universe. The study of the spectroscopic elements of these bodies and of the stars will supplement the present knowledge of the nature and constitution of the universe and add enormously to the knowledge gained in the North. The discovery of the giant stellar systems, such as the spiral nebula already known, awaits the observer in the far South. With a telescope of 100 inches, or over larger, the study of the distance and nature of the spirals already under way in the North will be advanced rapidly and many new features added to the slowly growing store of knowledge. One of the most pressing problems is that of the Magellanic Clouds, which are great aggregations of stars closely packed into two large groups in the southern sky. Are these parts of our own system, or are they remote in space? Present indications are that they are remote. The study of the Milky Way can be made more complete by large telescopes located far South. There is an open field for a large reflector in doing spectroscopic work for the determination of the constitution and velocity on large numbers of southern stars and the discovery and study of binary stars far too close together to be seen, even the largest of visual telescopes." Reflector Reveals Giantic Stars Mr. Jesup added that with the aid of the Mount Wilson reflector gigantic stars have been found with, a volume 27,000,000 times that of the sun. The refractor telescope merely, transmits its rays to a focus through lenses, while the more efficient reflector instrument BE LUCKY brings the rays to a focus by reflection from a concave mirror. And so. To. A. Infra. the late Union Representative, who has just returned from Europe, where he attended the International Astronomical Congress, stated that he had been in touch with Dr. St. John, the Mount Wilson Observer, of California. He was able to supply with him a good deal of information regarding the conditions in South Africa to supplement the information which Dr. St. John has already gathered from inquiries he has personally made. Nowhere in the world is the number of good nights so evenly distributed as in South Africa. Because of this fact, it is understood that the Mount Wilson institution is considering the establishment of a Southern Hemisphere station in South Africa and is believed that the Carnegie Trust would be prepared to arrange an exhibition at it. Already well known, Dr. G. Abbott of Smithsonian Institution traveled all over the world to choose a site for a new observatory, and finally settled, off Southwest, Africa as the ideal position. The only comparatively large telescopes in South Africa are the 26-inch instrument in the Union Observatory, Johannesburg, and the 27-inch telescope with which Mr. Jessup is associated at Blofonteen. Naturally, the prospect of the erection of giant telescopes in South Africa has awakened interest in astronomical science. The fact that famous American institutions are taking an active part in the many schemes under consideration has strengthened the belief that the Union will one day be among the greatest centres of astronomical science in the world. Man lived in Europe 1,000,000 years and in America 20,000 years, said Dr. George G. MacCurdry, of Yale University, director of the American School of Prehistoric Research, in his address yesterday before a joint session of the American Anthropological Association and the anthropological section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in the American Museum of Natural History. His address was part of a symposium of European pre-history. “There is every reason to assume that the cradle of the human race was somewhere in the old world and north of the equator.” Dr. MacCurdry said. “Whether it was in Europe Asia is impossible to say, but it should not be only during the last Europe only during the inter-glacial periods but at the height of the four glacial periods there was always room left for him to maintain comfortable foot-hold.” Dr. MacCurdy explained that cultural remains were more important than fossils in prehistoric research. They are more numerous, he said, and pottery and stone implements last better than bones. "N. C. Nelson, of the American Museum of Natural History, said that Asia appeared to have given rise to all the more important racial and cultural movements. Now the reverse was the case, he said, and commerce, the most important cultural influences, was foregoing Western ideas on the East. Other speakers at the symposium were Aile Herdicka, of the United States National Museum, Washington; Ernst Antene, of the American Geographical Society; V. J. Fewkes, of the University of Pennsylvania, and Robert W. Ehrlich, of Harvard, University. Women, Weak, Tired.

NACIMIENTO LEYENZ Antiguo Gestionario de la Universidad de Puerto Rico Los Peligros de la Influenza (Del Nuevo Mundo.) En mi anterior articulo promit a los amables lectores de El Nuevo Mundo hablar de mejor dicho, escribir sobre las "consecuencias-y secuelas de la influenza" lo que hago gustosamente en el presente articulo. vialar como ayuda para el adelanto de la raza tal como lo ve de urgente Garvey en los Negros de los Estados Unidos—El famoso leader ve la necesidad de más estrechas relaciones con los negros de las Indias Octidentales y los negros americanos para su mutuo beneficio—Relata la política de los blancos americanos para desarrollar relaciones fuera de Africa—No se consigue ningun propósito que sirva bien a los negros mientras estos se tiren los trastos a la cara—Sugiere la conveniencia de que los negros americanos pasen sus vacaciones en Jamaica durante la Convención Decia que la "influenza tan aparentemente hiocente es la causa de innumerables complicaciones y se cuelas" que se desarrollaban en forma aguda o crónica y vamos a probarlo, no sólo con casos de mis propia observación clínica sino los confirmados por autores de indiscutibles méritos en el Artéz Médical. Dice Sir William Osler, en su libro Principio y Práctica de Medicina: "Desde la última epidemia ha sido costumbre la de achacar a la influenza todos los males cronicos y perididas, de salud. En muchos casos esto es verdad y es sorprendente el numeroro de personas lisidas en su salud por muchos años, después de un ataque de influenza." Entre las complicaciones y se cuelas, este autor menciona la angina pectoral, abcesos del cerebro, bronco pneumonia, abcesos del pulmon, leucemia anemona grave, histeria, neurastenia, prolapso 6 ptosis estomacal, pericarditis, miocarditis, endocarditis septicemia, effecciones de la vescula biliar, todas ellas graves en suno, grado. Conchuye este autor diciendo: "La influenza induce a graves complicaciones respiratorias como bronquitis, pleuresia y pneumonia, de deja miado el aparto respiratorio para la irritación de procesos tuberculosos algunos durmientes desde tiempo ha y otros, de toda gesuridad, ayudadas por la presencia del basilo de Pfeiffer." Es un placer para mi el escribirles a vosotros desde nuestro Cuartel General del cual he tomado posesión y estoy deplidamente localizado. Me es grato informar que estamos ahora establecidos y en condiciones de preparar nuestro programa para la próxima Convención Internacional que se avecina. Un Espiritu Maravilloso Al llegar, a Jamaica encontré un maravilloso espiritu que alli nos aguar daba y tal espiritu se deja notar en todas partes como indicación ex presiva de la urgencia del negro a llevar a cabo a sus obra a sus propias iniciativas. De tales indicaciones, es bueno el petitafisar que nuestra Convención Internacional de 1929 la mas grande que se registre en la historia de la raza negra. Nosotros hemos conseguido una magnifica propiedad en la cual tenemos y establecido nuestras officas Generales, en preparación para la venidera convención. Los terrenos de la convención en el Cuartel General seran bastante amplios para acomodar a lo menos 20,000 personas, y buscan el tener un contingente de tal magnitud como no se ha visto antes en movimientos de esta indole. Convención Internacional en Jamaica En Toronto, el trenes de Noviembre ultimo, los delegados americanos a la conferencia votaron que celebraremos la convención el próximo año en Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I. Se decidió esto de manera fuerte para traer a los negros americanos en mas estrecho contacto con los negros de las Indias Occidentales para estrechar mejor las relaciones comerciales e industriales. De la misma manera que los blancos de America se las buscan en que sus relaciones con los blancos de otros países sean cada vez más estrechas para salvaguardiar sus interces comunes en el mundo y así llevar a cabo sus negociaciones de manera que estas obtengan su mejor reconocimiento, por lo que ellos la creten de gran necesidad, así los negros de America deberan comprender que no hay razon por la cual ellos no tomen en cuenta la relacionarse con los negros de la West Indies, los negros-centro-americanos y los africanos y las comidades que estes necesitan para su comfort, y por via de relacion establecer nexos económicos en que ambos se beneficen y procrearse tanto unos como otros una acción independiente en este sentido. El West Indian, el americano y el africano pueden descarralar las mismas relaciones que establece el blanco con sus congiones de raza y como estos, sacar de estas relaciones tal estabilidad económica que pondera al negro mucho mas lejos de lo posible, estando seguro de que su estado industrial y comercial no sera herido en lo mínimo por ninguna otra raza o grupo que la antagonia. Hay posibilidades para los negros de las West Indies y Str y Centro America que el negro americano debería conocer. Desafortunadamente el negro americano no ha vajado; el no ha sido ejeritado en la inversion de su capital en países extranjeros como lo hace y ha seguido hacendolo el hombre blanco con exitos estempidos. El Gran Clinico G. Diafalo, Profesor de Medicina en la Facultad de Medicina de Paris, en su obra "Libre de Texto de Medicina". Vol. I, pag. 1773, dice sobre los efectos de la influenza: "He visto en muchos casos'la gran postración y depresión mental producidos por la influenza y en algunos casos ha llegado hasta la excitación mental, alucinación y mania aguda". En otros el corazon ha sufrido los efectos de una arritmia (pérdida del ritmo cardiaco) condicion azas molestosa. El Professor Dr. Adulph Von Sfrumpell de 'la Universidad de Lepisic en su libro "Texto de Medicina", Vol. I, páginas 88 y subs: dice: Como invierte el dinero el hombre blanco Un ejemplo magnifico de como el hombre blanco invierte su dinero en países extranjeros y obtiene pingues beneficios con resultados positivos esta aquí demostrado: Hace cuenta años un americanos de nombre Capitan Baker invirtió unos pocos de dollars en una goleta carga de guineas (platanos, martinicos, &) en Jamaica, B. W. I. Los guineos fueron traidos a America donde tuvieron gran aceptación y favorable mercado y después de corto tiempo, la Compania Frutera de Boston fue organizada para el negocio de frutas; de esta corporación surgió la United Fruit Company, un trust americano de tremendas proporciones que no coliniente, abarca la industria de Jamaica, sino el Centro America. Esta compania es una de las más riesgos hoy. Tiene un supervit de mas de un billion de dollars y tiene una línea de vapores mayor que la de cualquiera en el mundo. Todo es el resultado de un solo "He visto las complicaciones usuales en todos los procesos agudos, pero ninguino con más facilidad para el desarrollo de estas, como la influenza. Desde laspicurionias graves, conpleuresia; extrema debilidad cardiaca; e involvimiento del oído medio y el ríón; hasta el más depresivo surmenage e intensa y extrema debilidad organica, todo ello es producido por la influenza, dejando el organismo desgastado e incapaz de resisteres acuerdos en enfermedades siempre en acecho, las que se desarrollan meses después o años, según las condiciones de vida y económicas del individuo." Y concluye de dielando: "Dover advertirse a los pacientes el tener bucu cuidado con ellos mismos durante el periodo de convalescencia y posterior a esta." máquina otra compañía el miel madera, hombre, el Capitan Baker quien empezó a hacer rodar la bola. Debo manifestar que los mismos guineos que embarca la United Fruit y que la han hecho bastante rica son plantados y cultivados por los mismos negros. Otras corporaciones blancas han hecho inversiones en azucar y en ejes de cacao en las West Indies y Central America de las cuales ellos derivan anualmente incontables millonesadas. Por ese es que se desea traer a los negros de las West Indies y Central America en contacto con los negros americanos de manera que tai relaciones puedan desarrollarse en identicas circunstancias. Los Negros Americanos deben viajar La Convención International de 1929 ofrecerá de consiguiente a los negros americanos una oportunidad para ver las grandes posibilidades de los negros de las West Indies. Un buque excursionista saldrá de New York para Jamaica y llegará a asta el 31 de Julio de 1929. Desde luego vodos aquellos que desen venir a la Convención de America, tendrán amirla comodidades y facilidades para asistir a la Convención desde los Estados Unidos de America. El viaje de New York a Jamaica se hace en seis días. Dentro de pogos apuntaremos por mediation del "Negro World" la venta de los pasajes de manera que todos los que desen hacen El doctor Frank Overton en su libro de Texto "The Health Officer" dice lo siguiente: "La influenza crea una susceptibilidad la pulmonia porque los pneumococos y streptococos tomar nueva virulencia debido a la presencia del B. de Pfeiffer en el Pulmon. Un quinto de todos los casos de influenza desarrollan pulmonia y un quinto de ellos sucumben y los otros quedan profundamente minados en su salid." dicho viaje pueden hacer sus peticiones veniencias. Una invitación cordial se hace a todas las personas que desen visitar los tropicos el proximos año. El movimiento de convenciónendra lugar del lo a 31 de Agosto. El barco de la excursion hará dos vajes de ida ya vietta, uno el 15 de Agosto y el otro el 31, de manera que aquellos que no puedan pasar toda la temporada con nosotros, podrán pasar dos semanas en la convención. Jamaica se la ha llamado por mu Basta ya de autores y pasemos a la relación breve de muchos casos de observación personal mía y d otros compañeros que han tenido larga experiencia con esta enfermedad. chos la "Isla de las frimaveras", fuites de las partes del mundo viena desde de las delicias de Jamaica y a recuperar su salida las delicias de la isla. He aqui que esto estará oportuno para los negro de America el ver las maravillas de la isla en mas estregas relaciones con su gente. En 1918 despidió ya los mubirrones de una guerra interminable, en que la zoobra espiritual y la carencia de alimentación miñaban, las hasta entonces, vigorosas fuerzas rel espíritu y del cuerpo, su-apurifición simulinea en el mundo entero, famélico y desgastado, la Seferorona Influenza, cebando con safia inicua su-anhelbo de exterminación de la humanidad. Se cumplían ya los treinta años en que los epidemiologos afman que se cumple el ciclo hacia una avivada virulencia. Tejitó fuf de los episodios más doloros por los decolados y triste campos de mietra fecunda y deamparada Isla. Las noticias del exterior eran pavorovas. La población rufal numista presta de gran pamo acudía grupos, enfermos, caviantes y debilitados con manos suprímenas por un poco de medicina para No hay duda accea de ello de que la U. N. I. A. esta ahora en camino del exito permanente. Estamos poniendo los cimientos para levantar esa estructura. Esta no es la hora de hacer comentarios mistificantes en opósicción a nuestra obra sino unir nuestros esfuerzos yalar juntos opionemos a todo aquello que nos impideste este trabajo. El negro tiene que amarse un poco mas que en el pasado. Prepararse para la Gran Convención Que cada cuna no pierda la oportunidad de prepararse para este grammovimiento. Hagamos historia con lo que interintamos hacer. Leguemos nuestros mitos una heredad diga de la posteridad y que sea un glorioso momento para la Universal. Improvement Negro Association en su curas sus majores y sus alfonso alquenos quercios ya y sin medir ni quinse elevaras los entierro. Erra una repetición de la "Pastor Negro" que antojo los campos de Europa en el siglo seco. Los que mobrevivieron el terrible azote quedaron desprovistos de salud. La mortandad Post influenza aumentó a tal modo, que alarmado el Departamento de Salud Pública de los Estados Unidos quivió el doctor Towsen quien investigó las causas de tan alta mortandad por tuberculosis y otras enfermedades. Su report fue publicado y en conclusión decía: "la población ha quedado profundamente debilitada, parte, por innumerables enfermedades que han diezmado su salud y por la carencia de alimentos apropiados." Ahora pasará a relatar algunos de mis propios casos de complíciones post influenza. Durante el curso de mi trabajo profesional conoci a un comcieriante que había gozado de buena salud hasta que pasa la influenza, la que se dejo con el estómago perdoid. Consultando varios médicos, ain resultado alguno, le fue preguntado si habia pasado la influenza y contestó que estuvo gravemente enfermo de ella. Hecho un examen Roentológico, se reveló, que tenia una caída del estómago de curación problemática, en mi opiación, incurable. Ello le causaba melancolla y neurastenia. Conoci a la señora de un Agente de Seguros residente en Cuba quien pasó la influenza y luego le quedo una dilatación de la Aorta la que la caída dolores anginoides que la tenia en constante zozobra y miedo de un humor pesimo. Caso incurable también. Tuve otro caso de una señora joven de muy buena presencia y en situación no muy filamento, pero si tenia ahorros lo que le permitía una buena alimentación y la asistencia de buenos Medicos. Desarrollo de un abseso pulmonar y después de varias operaciones quirurgicas sucumbio en un Sanatorio de San Juan. Tenia yo un caso crónico cardiaca que respondía admirablemente al tratamiento y le permita asistir a sus quehaceres como Director de la Revista de Agricultura. El nombre crema muy metódico y podía haber largos años, mas a no ser por un intesperado ataque de influenza que lo dominó en 48 horas y sucumbio a sus efectos. Asisti a infinalidad de Veteranos, de la Guerra Mundial que desarrollaron tuberculosis pulmonar, gulos de ellos viviendo en los campos. Muchos de ellos están aún asilados en el Sanatorio Insular y otros están descansando la paz eterna. en sus gloriosas tumbas. Coció a dos señoras jóvenes, casadas, que quedaron con ataques de asma, crónico de dificiul curación. Otros han permanecido en estado pretuberculoso, con pulgones debilitados e incompetencia física e inhalidad para el trabajo. Durante la presente epidemia he iniciado un 40% de los casos de influenza con complicaciones pneumonicas graves. Todos ellos a consecuencia de nuestra tendencia ancestral de no darle importancia a un simple catarro o influenza. Reasumiendo todo lo anteriormente expuesto, podemos llegar misiectores y yo a la conclusión, de que la influenza es una enfermedad de otras consecuencias y que al menor girma de su aparición deberá porser el caso en manos del Medico de la casa para que este dicte las medidas e indique el tratamiento más apropiados.

Las cartas quedar dirigirse a las ficinas del Nuevo Mun do, 75 West 113 street. Hay un ser que puede dueificar todos nuestros dolores, que puede destruir todas nuestras tristezas: la madre. Dios nos ha la ha dado para poner una gota de miel con sus patos besos en el acariz de la vida. Dios nos ha la enviado junio a la cuna para que al abrir los ojos oculten las las alas de su amor toda la obscuridad del horizonte en que vamos a batallar para conquistarnos la muerte. Dios ha querido que sus manos pleguen nuestras manos para las primeras oraciones y que sus sonrias sean auroras de lo infinito para la esperanza. Ella es la virtud, la caridad, la parte tierra del corazon, la nota melancólica del alma, el fondo immortal de la inocencia, que siempre queda hasta en los pliegues del más cruel carácter. Cuando sintáis un buen impulso, el deseo de enjugar una ligrima, le socorrer una desgracia, de partir vuestro pan con el hambriento, de lanzar a la muerter para salvar la vida del projismo, valvense y encontrarse a vuestro lado, coma, el angel de la guardsa, que os instraja el pensamiento del bien, la sombre querida de vuestro sandra.

P. THOMAS, Prop. El celebrado peso mosca Tommy White, conocido popularmente entre el elemento hispano como "El Indio" es natural de Ponce. Tal vez, sin ninguna excepción, ningún paledor hispano, entre los pesqueros, ha dado man que hacer a los boxeadores yanquis que White. Ademada de tener un record envidiabilismo Tommy ha gozado de la gracia de haber recibido la primera lecciones del ring, del molvidable pugilista, el veterano Young Joe Gans. Nos cuenta White que Gans, mirandole en el gimnasio haciendo guantes cuando apenas contaba diez años, as impresión de tal forma que le ofreció todas las venitas que se le pueden ofrecer, un boxeador por otro que conoce como es que se tiene que entrar, salir para llegar a ser algo. Pélea tras pelea el puertorriquine se fue dando a conocer hasta que se las vió con el tenable Eddie.Flank el oásado pasado en el Madison Square. En esta laíta le pega tan efectivamente a su adversario, quien habia ganado una, decisión al campeón Brinke Genaro, los jueces adjudicaron la pelea talera pero los periodistas de la prensa, americana todos estuvieron contestes en que el puertorriquíne habia ganado la mayoría de los asaltos por un gran margen. Tommy White tiene diez años de experiencia del ring y conoce la técnica de su profesión. El puertorriquíne piensa ahora hacer lo más proponible un viaje a Puerto Rico después de una larga ausencia y le aseguró que teindrá muy buena oposición en Carattini y otros moscas compatriotas suyos de cartel. No dudamos de que los promotores en la isla no han de dejar pasar la oportunidad de hacer encuentros donde esta estrella, participe, puesto que haciendoilo y logranjar inyectar en el deporte iseleno el talento nuestro y quien ha dada tanta candela y brilla en los cuadrilateros de aca. Nosotros contesamos que no hemos visto en acción oficial al compatriota, pero si los records valen algo, creemos que nos estamos ocu pando de una estrella que ha sabido brillar con suficiente claridad en los Estados Unidos y nos conformamos con repetir con el inolvidable Joe Gans: "Tommy White, if given the opportunity, will be the next flyweight champion of the world." El sábado 22 del pasado diciembre menú especial que orecio el Olympia A. C. los boxeadores hispanos que participaron en los encuentros demostran una vez más que son pura flama y huesos algo duro de roer para los boxeadores de otras razas. Black Bill, campeon mosa de Cuba, quien no necesita presentación formal, por ser harito conocido, propiño la zurra del baila a Pinky Silverberg. Tanto recibió Silverberg y tan效能 estuvo Black Bill que nos aventuramos a escribir que Pinky笑 ha recibido castigo tan severo en toda su carrera pugilística, no excluyendo de nuestro escribir la faesta con Chocolate. Buem, después de todo no hay que emioneceras porque Black Bill pelle como lo hace, puesto que si es escribir que es primo de Eligio Sardinas. (Kid Chocolate), en muy nutritivo que no sangre hiviente haga el emparejado efecto. X Y Ruhino Alvarez Noque noquim articulativo a Joe Sifani en el segundo asahi.

Et asturianto ha respondido a lo que de el hemos dicho, después de haberle visto haciendo guantes y es este un triunfo que le ha de llevar muy lejos. Adelante, hisapos que asi es como se hace el grado. Sireci, peso, medio, de Jersey City, derroto a la esperanza negra de Harlem, Lem. Samuel, y dices que bastante dinero se perdió en el barrio con el resultado de este encuentro Sireci domino al muchacho de Harlem en la mayoría de los asaltos No nos vamos a tomar la molestia un recuento exacto de la pela de Ace Hudkina y el elgeles Rend de Vos. Sos nos limitaremos a opinar, que dado a oportunidad que tuvimos de encontrarnos la noce del viernes 21 del pasado dicembre, en el sito en donde casi rozabamos las narices con el cuadrilatero en donde el gato y De Vos se dieron con todo, menos con los cubos de agua que estaban en sus respectivas esquinas. La pela me parció algo dudosa; y si de nosotros hubiera dependido la decision hubieramos immediatamente rendido un fallo de empate. Ambos pugilatas ganaron cuatro asaltos y dos fos consideramos empates. La decision fue dada al gato montes porque en la tilda sesión; de una manera arrebatadora impresionó consideramente a los jueces.

Numerous Must Fight If They Would Survive To Pilot of the Negro World: "I am proud that I am a Negro! If them possess an african courage for some Negroes to make that statement. Hon. Negroes Garvey, champion of Negro liberty, the greatest statesman of this modern civilization, is a black man, so why shouldn't I be proud to be a unit of a race of people that is capable of producing a genius such as he undeniably is. The time has come, when black people must do their own thinking and work in unity for the good of their race. We the black people of the world, must work out our own destiny. We must put into practice the old, old lesson of strength in unity. We cannot expect any progress until we learn to do these things. Negroes must get the right conception of life. Living doesn't mean "just to get something to eat, a house to sleep in and a suit on your back. That is not living; a that is merely existing. Living is to enjoy the earth, have liberty and be equal, and live in fraternity with all men. Liberty, Fraternity and Equality are the three grandest words in the languages of men. Liberty gives to every man the fruits of his own labor, the labor of his hands and of his brain. Fraternity: Every man in the right in my brother-Equality: The rights of all are equal. No race, no color, or previous condition can change the right man. It is a hard task to convince some Negroes they are the equal of any other man on God's earth. Negroes, you must realize that you are the equals of yellow men, brown men and white men, physically, morally and mentally. This world, at present, is a white man's world. We, being what we are must shake loose the chains of his control from our part of it. Must either accept his domination and its inferiority or contend against it. What the young people want is no better than the old Negro. Every round in the ladder of forms belonged to feet that get upon it first. Black men and women, I point down to you because you are nearly all on the first rung of the ladder. If some of you cannot climb, stand one side and let the deserving Negro pass. Unless the black people of the world realize that they must cease planding and begging for what they want and demand what is rightly thesies, they will become like the American Indian. If you will remember your history with me back in 1492 Columbus is fighting his way through the waters of the world found America in trying to discover a new water route to India. Then, you will remember, he called the people he found here Indiana. Well, some other people came here and took away from the Indiana this land, ex. Ohio. He also found a place he remaind on as souvenirs of America. Will this happen to Africa? Yes, unless Negroes get control of their country which God intended for them. The Indian vanished because he did not control the land in which he lived. So will the Negro unless the gets control of Africa, his native land. We need a country of our own even if we don't live in it, so that we shall not be WHAT THE STARS PROMISE YOU!

The Time Has Passed I am asking the Negroes of the world-through the medium of your valuable journal whether the present program of the U. N. I. A. with its lofty ideals meets with their approval. If so, it behoves each and every right thinking and progressive Negro to support the Hon. Marcus Harvey after all that he has done in his epoch-making tour in Europe recently. In him we have the embodiment of the new, awakened Negro. That lethargy that was once ours has been shaken off, never to return. It is time that we sit up and take note of certain grave truths and demand as others do a place in the sun. As a race we have been overfettered with promises. Now that the shackles of enslavement are off our bodies, we must refuse to remain in bondage to those predeemed promises, but we be content to suffer them, and great opportunities that present themselves. It is through the Hon. Mazuc Garvey that we can see the way for a speedy liberation. To say that he is heavenly inspired is putting it mildly. He it is that shall lead this race in its battles for its bodily and mental liberation. We have to put over that very comprehensive program of him—it is for our very existence. Now Negroes, through the Hon. Marcus Garvey—and through him only—Ethiopia shall come into its own again. GEORGE R. FOOTE. Colon, Panama. 172,107 Women * MOSCOW. Jan. 6.

Washington St. Room 463-M, Chicago A triping that killed Carnegie Hall and overloaded to the stage, gave another enthusiastic welcome yesterday afternoon to Roland Hayes at the tenor's second New York recital of the season. The delicate art of the singer never was, displayed with greater charm and lyric eloquence than in the generaql program with which he delighted his loyal following. The rich variety of his program, ranging from the classic Haydn to the Negro spirituals of which Mr. Hayes is a distinguished interpreter, once more gave evidence of his versatility. Though sidem departed with the music, the voco-voc which he uses with rare skill, Mr. Hayes achieved dramatic effects usually attailed only by means of a wider range of opulence and sonority than he can command. The impeccable taste and purity of line in Haydn's "Stets Barg die Liebe Sie" and "Heller Blick" were maintained throughout the long list of songs in English, French and German, which included Berlioz's "The Repose" of the Holy Family, from "L'Emance du Christ," "Wilder's Mon Bras, pressait," "Duparc's "Elusee," Koechlin's "Le Th," which was repeated, and an air by Debussy's "L'Emanf Prodigie." An interesting group of Chinese and Japanese lyrics in settings by Griffes, Patriche and Matsuyama were followed by several spirituals, in which Mr. Hayes worked his magic spell of searching paths. The program included "of the program, including Handel's "Would You Gain the Tender Creature?" "Passing By," "Ruchmanlinoff's Songs, of Georgia," "Water Boy" and "Goin' Home."

They are everywhere acting what they can to build up this great Johannesburg. "I am not sure," the Architect proceeded, "whether we realize how much we owe to them. The question we have to ask ourselves what we are paying back the debt we owe them. In most of us there is an idea. But I need not tell you that the policy of Safety First leads nowhere. Any idea of fear can have no effect. Is it not therefore a sign of weakness on our part that in these matters we think of safety first." Improving Destination's Future.
