The Negro World

dence that the Island of Jamaica, Once a Slave-Distributing Centre, Will Be Meeting Place of Negroes In August Emancipation The time is now ripe for us to readjust ourselves for the forthcoming International Convention of the Negro peoples of the world. As stated before, at the conference in Toronto we voted to hold the convention this year at Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I. We are now preparing to welcome to this beautiful island of the Carribbean the delegates from all parts of the world. Greatest Convention in History This convention is going to be the greatest in the annals of history, in that it will carry out the practical idea of reuniting, on an historic spot, the black peoples of the world. Jamaica, as everyone knows, was one of the first slave colonies of the West Indies. When the slave trade was instituted Jamaica was prolific in its slave industries. The island has led the many West Indian islands in slave exportation, and most of the Negroes scattered in America and in the West Indies were shipped from this ancient colony in exchange. Most of the Negroes in the Southern States of America were shipped from Jamaica, and now that we are to reunite ourselves in this ancient slave colony, it is something that ought to appeal to the sentiment of everybody. Historic Spot for Convention Outside of being an historic spot, the Island of Jamaica is the most beautiful and health embracing country in the world. Everybody knows that annually thousands and thousands of white tourists come to the Island of Jamaica to see its beautiful sceneries and enjoy its wonderful health climate. Property Acquired to House Great Throng The parent organization has already acquired extensive properties here to accommodate the convention, and it is felt that the whole island will bid the delegates a welcome never extended to anyone before. Every Division Must Report Every division, branch, chapter and unit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that is financial with the patient body should send a delegate to this convention, because it is going to mark a new era in the life of the Negro race. Out of this convention will come new economic changes to affect the life of the American, West Indian and African Negroes. Everything the Negro has will be staked on this convention. We are inviting visitors from all other Negro organiza- Urges Negroes Everywhere to Prepare to Make the Sixth International Convention an Outstanding Success ASKS CO-OPERATION OF THE NEGRO PRESS FOR CLOSER RELATIONSHIP FLAN Emphasizes Upon Members the Importance of Paying Their Monthly Dues and Annual Assessment Tax Promptly-All Divisions Must Be in Good Standing tions and institutions to attend this world conference. An open invitation is also extended to Negro tourists in America and other parts of the world to take advantage of the excursion we are to run from America to visit the Island of Jamaica. It will be a beautiful holiday for those who desire to make a change. Unfortunately, up to the present, the American Negro has not indulged very much in travelling abroad, which has kept him from keeping up with the progress of the world. On the other hand, the white American has travelled extensively, and this has helped him to become the great commercial and industrial leader that he is today. This convention is offering the opportunity to progressive American Negroes to come out to the island to see the great possibilities so that the Negroes in the West Indies may link up with the American Negroes for a great trade boom. There is no reason why the Negro producers of America cannot export their products to the West Indian consumers so that the race in America and the race in the West Indies may develop a great economic relationship. I hope that narrow-minded Negro newspaper editors will not oppose this idea of inviting the American Negroes down to visit the tropics. I feel satisfied, however, that the broad-minded newspaper men will support the idea. It is contact that will make us. There are tremendous possibilities before the black man, and we can make a great success if we will only build a sound foundation, and that is what the Universal Negro Improvement Association seeks to do through its International Convention to be held here from the 1st to the 31st of August, 1929. Not only will the American Negro benefit from attending this convention, but all delegates from different parts of the West Indies will benefit by the contact which will bring the people of the West Indies into closer relationship. We have everything to be hopeful for in racial uplift when this convention convenes. The delegates from America will also find that this convention will offer an opportunity for closer realtionship in trade, in commerce and general economic progress. Black Star Line Again Out of this convention we hope to resuscitate the suspended Black Star Line Steamship Corporation, which shall in the new era supply the means of commercially linking up the various units of the race into one economic body. Delegates to League Out of the convention we are to elect twelve delegates to attend the League of Nations at its tenth session at Geneva. We want, therefore, representative men from all sections of the world to be sent as delegates. Every community should send its most loyal, ablest and most sincere men or women to represent it. We do not want any disharmony while we are working to build a strong and powerful race; therefore those people who are sent to the convention should be interested in reclaiming the Negro and making him one of the potential entities of the world. Special attention should be given at this time to the annual assessment tax of the organization. This tax must be paid in immediately so as to make each member financial. All reports for the month of January must contain the payment of the annual assessment tax. Pay for Your Petition Pamphlets All those divisions that have been disposing of the petition for the League of Nations are requested to make their remittances immediately. The petition must be widely circulated, therefore we want all divisions to see that everybody in their community has a copy. Those who desire copies for sale may secure them by writing to the Foreign Headquarters at 76 King Street, Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be, GRO GIRL, 16, HELD IN PEONAGE 14 YEAR BY WHITE FAMILY, FOUND AT SLAVERY TASKS IN JERSEY TOWN An astounding story of domestic servitude involving an illiterate Negro girl, sixteen, was uncovered in Little Falls, N.J., seven miles southwest of Paterson, following an investigation conducted at the instigation of William Holcombe, Passaic County agent of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, who is super-intendent of the Paterson Orphan Asylum. The child is Alise Martin, formerly of Lowndesville, Albany County; S.C. She was born in there last October by Mrs. Theron Savile Allen, who says "Alise was "given" to her at the age of two. Mr. Allen is assistant superintendent of a rock quarry at Great North, outside Little Falls. The family lives in an old house on a hill within a stone throw of the quarry. Child Was "Bound Out" There are four children in the family. Alise is the tall tribe of nurses, cook and general housemaid. She never has been to school; her invisible assets consist of $1 and $10 old clothes, and she sleeps in a little room on the top floor of the old house. Stress, with black shoes without laces, was puttering around in the kitchen preparing supper for the family. Mrs. Allen had been sowing in the parlor and her husband had just returned from his work in the quarry. Alice, who says she attended Clenton College in South Carolina, speaks with a marked Southern accent. He explained he wanted to "do what was right." Frequently he went into the toilet to get correct answers to questions from his wife, and finally she entered the dining room, where the interview took place. She were a fresh house dress and was followed by one of her children, a boy of about five, stressed in a newly hauled play suit, and apparently recently wilted. The building, a ramshackle affair, clings to the side of the hill, and is approximately half a mile from its nearest neighbor. Because of its isolation the details of Allegra's existence remained secret home time. There are holly wreaths in the windows and a radio loud speaker pops from behind a curtain in a window of the dining room. The imager is clean and the furnishings show in their alliance nor poverty. The Allegra, seen in their home, told the story of Adele in the presence of Patrician Jesse Kane, assigned to the case by Chief John Dudleyhoff of Little Falls at the request of Mr. Holcombe. The story, together, follows: Adele was born June 31, 1912, in Lowenville. The mother was deanne Martin, and the eldest of her father is not known. The mother had several other children and wanted to get rid of Adele on the Adele her to Mrs. Allen. There say, no family adoption because the child is a Negro, but papers of indenture "handing out." Abel until she was eighteen were signed by Mrs. Winkle Martin. Abel's griefmother. This was because the mother at that time was not twenty one. Never Sent to School The honors were given by K. H. Mosley, a Lowryville attorney, and witnessed by his brother, J. H. Monley. They never were recorded and the original document has been lost. The Alles do not see them in any true connection, and they do not remember the exact contents of the original. The Alles come to New Jersey in March, 1847, and Miles was sent to South Carolina with Mrs. Alles' mother, Mrs. K. H. Harper of Lowendencville. Last October Mrs. Harper died and Miles altered the funeral and brought the book with her. Except for this last period of separation Albe has lived with the Alles practically all her life. Ask what schools Alice had attended. Mrs. Allen explained the child never had been sent to school, but that for a time she had to teach her herself. Mrs. Alice gave her formally was a teacher, and politeness she did not bother to instruct Alice. In history, geography, and other elementary school subjects, she had taught her how to read and write. "She can do that all right," she said. Questioned as to what waters Alice was paid. Mrs. Alice explained there was no regular wage, but that money was given to her "just like we give money to our own children, and some of it she puts in the bank." Found Preparing Supplier While the conversation was going on, Alice in an old blouse and solled BAYER ASPIRIN PROVED SAFE BAYER Does not affect the Heart Unless you see the 'Bayer Cross' on package or on tablets, you are not getting the pending Bayer Aspirin, proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians over twenty-five years for Colds Headache Neuritis Lumbago Toothache Rheumatism Neuralgia Pain, Pain Contains unopened "Taver" mocktails contains proven directions.

Mrs. Allen had been sewing in the parlor and her husband had just returned from his work in the quarry. Allen, who says, he attended Clemson College in South Carolina, speaks with a marked Southern accent. He explained he wanted to "do what was right." Frequently he went into the printer to get correct answers to questions from his wife, and finally she entered the dining room, where the interview took place. She wore a fresh house dress and was followed by one of her children, a boy of about five, dressed in a newly playful suit and apparently recently scrubbed himself. When she was called into the room, Alsa started, wide-eyed, at the policeman who was in uniform and timidly answered questions put to her. She apparently had been bored, bread as her hands were covered with dough. A newspaper was put before her and the first word of a paragraph was pointed out to her with a penel. The word was "this," and when she asked what it was she ventured that it might be "the." "Try her on the big type," Mrs. Allen interrupted. Words such as "you" and "the" and others of one syllable were tried and Alsa knew some of them; her gords of more than one syllable were after strangers to her. In artribune she scorned was zero. She was asked to add seven and one, and after a long pause she shook her head and gave it up as hopeless. The adding of eight and four then was tried, and after a protected mental struggle Alsa decided the answer must be seven. "How much money have you in the bank, Abie?" the child asked. Abie didn't know. Told to produce her bank book, she went to her room and brought it downstairs. It showed that December 24 there had been deposited in the Cliffton; N. J., National Bank to the credit of Abie Martha $1. This obviously was a Christmas present. As Abie is sixteen, she does not come under the Compulsory Education Law of New Jersey, which requires a child to complete the sixth grade before working, pots can be gifted, and an she has not been in the State long enough to be considered a resident, she is not eligible for admission to any of its institutions. Fact-Finding Conference To Be Held in Durham DURHAM, N. C., Jan. 10.—The second annual, Fact Finding Conference will be held in Durham on April 17-18 and 19, for the International and consideration of problems of the Negro and plains for this conference are now worked out. A keen interest has been shown in it by leading Negroes in all sections of the United States, as well as by well known and prominent white people of a public-spirited nature. Dr. James E. Shepard, President of the North Carolina College for Negroes, at Durham, is president of the conference, and he will be in New York City this week end to confer with lenders as to the coming meeting. About 200 Negro leaders from all parts of the nation attended the first conference here last April, and fully 400 are expected here for the second convention. Chief attention will be given to problems of health, education, agriculture, business and how to develop into practical channels the religious beliefs of the Negro. Dr. Shepard has sent out letters to Negro leaders all over the country, soliciting any suggestions and full co-operation in an endeavor to make the coming conference even more successful than the first one. The committee is always ready to accept all suggestions declared Dr. Shepard, and prominent white leaders have also aided materially with their counsel and energies, in an active way. Negro College Mourns Death of Benefactor DURHAM, N. C., Jan. 16—Resolutions of respect and condolence were passed by the faculty and students of the North Carolina College for Negroes on the death of B. N. Duke, who was one of the early patrons of this Negro college. Evidence of his friendship for the college is seen by the fact that in the last two years he had made donations to the institution totalling over $110,000. Deep sorrow was expressed by Dr. James E. Shepard, president, in special chapel exercises held in tribute to Mr. Duke. He made brief remarks touching upon the simplicity of the life of Mr. Duke, his interest in all good causes, and in the general interest of the colored people of Durham. Howard University-Annual Report is the Bishop of the Metropolitan Episcopal Church, South, in assign in this city on the next day voiced a scathing denunciation of mob violence and appealed to all good people to do their utmost to end this distinctive American virtue. The resolution, which was introduced by Bishop H. M. DuRose, of Nashville, was adopted by unanimous vote and was given to the press to broadcast. It is as follows: "Resolved by the College of Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, that, speaking as the representatives of one of the most numerous bodies of the nation, and particularly of the South, we rejoice in the continued decline in the number of lynchings in this country in recent years, but we deplore and condemn the still too frequent examples of mob violence, which discredit and dishonor our civilization—and outrage, and wedenom the majesty of the law, and particularly those of more recent occurrence in our states of the South. "While we recognize the unspeakable afflictions of the crimes committed by these persons who have been executed without authority and law, we must point to the fact that the laws and courts of our states have shown their ability to execute justice against even the most heinous crimes. All experience of the past is to the effect that violence hegits violence, and that the supplanting by private vengeance of the law and the functions of criminal tribunal result only in the weakening of the law and in the loss of respect for the constituted agencies of justice. "We live our people that, through self-repression, moderation and Christian patience, as also for the love of humanity and our Christian civilization, they seek to deepen and make effective the growing public conscience against this and every other form of violence, to the end that the law be enthroned and our Christian ideals be vindicated." More than 2,000 Southern Methodist, attending an international missionary conference in Philadelphia at the same time, by unanimous vote adopted a similar statement and ordered that It be broadcast throughout the church, which has a membership of 2,560,000. This resolution was prepared by A. C. Miller, of Little Rock, and was as follows: "Not merely because lynching is wrong and unjustifiable, but also because of the repressed it brings upon us among other nations and races, we unqualifiedly condemn it and pledge ourselves to exert our influence to suppress it." Paine College Quartet Entertains Missionaries MEMPHIS, Tennessee, Jan. 16.—One of the most delightful features of the international missionary conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, held here last week, was the singing of the quartet from Paine College, Augusta, Georgia. The vast audience of 2,500 gathered in the municipal administration, which opened every session of the program covering three days. Henry aphusse presented every minute, and many of the delegates expressed personally their appreciation of the fine service rendered by the singers. The quartet was composed of John W. Perry, John H. Colbans, William Webb and B. D. Roberts, the two last named members of the secular class. They were accompanied by Rev. Ray S. Toulmin, the president of the institution. Howard University, according to its annual report just issued, was incorporated by the act of March 2, 1567 (1 Stat. 1583). The object of the incorporation named in the first section of the act was "for education of youth in liberal arts and sciences."

Non-Zionists Jein Zionists in Drive for Funds-Redemption of Palestine After 2,000 Years Without a Blow Seen NEW YORK, Jan. 14—The United Palestine Appeal became more than a name yesterday afternoon when at a conference of non-Zionists at the Hotel Ambassador a $50,000 gift to the cause from Felix M. Warburg was announced and joint committees of leading Zionists, and non-Zionists were formed to organize Yorkville and the west side sections for the approaching campaign. Long standing differences between the two groups were swept into the background at this meeting, the first held by non-Zionists since their conference in New York in October, when after a vote to adopt the Joint Palestine Survey Commission's report, speakers warned that neither side was to consider that approval a victory. Formation of the Yorkville and west side committees came just after an address by the Rev. Dr. Joseph Silverman, rabid ementus of Temple Emmanuel El; who stirred enthusiasm when he called for a forwent and whole-hearted spirit of co-operation for the success of the Pidildeine fund. Recall: First Zionist Meeting "Just thirty-five years ago," he said, "the first Zionist meeting was held hogo in New York. Nothing was accomplished there. It ended in strife and I believe the chairman really prevented blows or bloods when he hastily adjourned the conference. "Now the world has given Palestine back to us again. After 2,000 years, that hand which one belonged to the Jews is ours for the taking again, without a quarrel, without the tiring of a single gun. We have before us a great responsibility and a challenge to all of us which we must not shirk. "A contribution to this fund, we must realize, will not force Jewish nationalism upon those in the United States or elsewhere and will not influence their independence. That nationalism will have influence only over those in Palestine itself." Since the establishment of the Jewish agency for the rehabilitation of the land "there is no such thing as a non-Zionist," Judge Otto A. Renshall, chairman of the United Palestine Appeal in Greater New York, declared. Nicaragua Honors United States Officers MANAQUA, Jan. 11—The Congress of Nicaragua conferred the rank of minister plenipotentiary and envoy extraordinary today on an American admiral and a general who assisted in restoring peace and order in Nicaragua during the past year.

Logan Feland, commanding the United States Marines, are recipients of this honor. A report received from the northern department says that General Sandino, the rebel chief, are proceeding to Managua to confer with General Feland. It is believed that Sandino desires to curry favor, and it is said he will cause joint warfare provided all the Marines are withdrawn from Nicaragua. Marines are on the bedout for Sandino's messengers. utton: B. A. II; B. S. SS; B. S. in commerce. 2. THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION.

BARNES of Havana, Cuba The Universal Negro Improvement Association through its dignitary Founder and leader, the Hon. Marvin Garvey, is calling for live-wire salen- men and salesmen to go out and sell the goods outlined in its program for the carrying out of its ideals and objects. Many of us are willing to sell, but seemingly lack the scientific selling ability and efficiency, which are of paramount importance in selling "specially" goods as are manufactured by the greatest Negro factory, the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League. Salesmen and saleswomen who are linked up with this movement have not very far to go in becoming proficient in salesmanship if they keep in touch with the well laid out program and the author of salesmanship, the administrator of this great corporation, the Hon. Marc Garvey, who has left no stone unturned in giving to every member of the race in every day language the technicalities and fundamentals of salesmanship. Psychology is also important in sellin. In selling the goods of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the salesman, must know his goods, must be able to make determinations and sales talk and, furthermore, must be able to sell himself. The U. N. I. A. is like any commercial and industrial corporation. You must tell and show to the public what you have, what you know and the various processes that are gone through to make the goods fit for service and consumption. Courtesy, politeness, intelligence and service must not be left out or you will be found, wanting in what goes to make you a "Specialty Salesman." How to Proceed Most of us fall or succeed for what we do and how we do it. The thinking and alert, business man, finding himself in a new community facing opposition, is confronted with many things. First, he will study the policy of the people, their ways and customs, their liking for one thing or the other; such merchandise that they must need from time to time. With this is added his personality, his willingness to serve the people's needs, not only with the merchandise on hand but with his sense advice, co-operation, honesty of purpose and sincerity. He will at all things explain the nature of his business and his set ideas and purpose. In this way his business, an spite of opposition, prospers. He is in every sense a success. This is as it should be with the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Relative to the organization, some of the members over-zealous, and instead of building up their despair, if the leaders and members of the various branches of the Association would properly outline the aims and objects of the association from their platforms and to those who seek information, it is quite evident that the locale would have a longer following and better results would be attained. Intelligent Announcement was made recently that Frank R. Crosswalth, Negro socialist and labor organizer, has been selected to organize on a national scale Negro citizens for the United Colored Socialists of America. "This is the first real and substantial effort made by the American Socialist Party to reach the members of my race," said Mr. Crosswash in a recent interview, "The Negro massess" he said, "are tired of stealing the old neighborhood political path steven with the wreckage of desception, broken promises and politico-economic helplessness." According to Mr. Crosswash, the Negro is not only "seeking a new road" but is beginning to see that the "door to industry is opening wider and wider because of the present strict immigration laws and the advent of the machine into the agricultural South," but the Negro, it is to secure the maximum advantage out of this promising situation: "must assume new tactic" Mr. Crosswalth further stated that the Negro is resenting, in a tangible way, lily-withem and other forces that are trying to push him to the wall. To bear out this statement, he mentioned the fact, that in the last campaign over a thousand votes were cast for Dr. Norman Thomas, the Socialist presidential candidate, in Hurlem stone and without any effort whatsoever over tour thousands votes were cast for the Socialist candidate for Congress. Ford Cars Not to Enter Egypt Duty Free in Exchange for Roads CAIRO, Egypt Jan. 12.—The Egyptian Government was understood today not to be prepared to consider Henry Ford's proposal that he build a road in exchange for free entry of his cars into Egypt. An 8 pay cent ad valorum duty is paid now on Ford cars imported into Egypt. The newspaper Shaam recently said Mr. Ford has proposed that he construct at his own expense about 165 miles of roadway anywhere in Egypt and undertake its itakeep if the government would allow his automobiles to enter the country free of duty. leadership is of which importance at this stage of the organization if the goal must be reached. Such is the leadership that the Morns Marvin Gervay is calling for and such are the ones that will make good "specialty" salemen. We must be conscious of ourselves, conscious of what we are talking about and what we are doing. One error means that there must be another beginning, and the association cannot afford to lose time and ground. I reject it is very easy if we keep in touch with the master-mind of the association, obey and carry-out his instructions and plans, because he knows. The indemnities of our ambitions, the fact that we do not have anything but the vaguest idea as to what we are seeking to accomplish in the long run of life, the blackness before us, for which we are partly responsible and which we might dissipate if we would particularize regarding our real ambitions are largely responsible for our lack of success. The Goal In View What do you want? What are you aspiring at? What is your goal? To what end are you working and striving and worrying? Success comes to the individual or people who know what they want. Such an answer should be nothing less than an enamored race, a free and redeemed Africa and a government of our own. All well thinking and ambitious people should have their own government, that be your answer, then the command is to come and join the rank and title of the Universal Nogro improvement Association and become "specially" salesmen. The Call to Service From the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the man who has toured Europe triumphantly, the man who has brought us a message of good-will, courage and hope—from the man who has paced the dark ages' through, thus opening up to the black man the various avenues of wealth and happiness, from Marcus Garvey, the black man who knows what he is talking about, has come the clarion call for men and women of the race to press into active service one way or the other into the broad fields of commercial, and industrial development of the U. N. L. A. men and women who are not afraid to work men and women with back-bond and bulldog grift and determination; men and women who will die fighting for truth, justice and liberty, men and women of sound calibre, and above all, men and women who will take the advice and command of the mastermind to carry and carry out his instructions to the letter. Such are the salesman and saleswoman the Hon. Marcus Garvey is calling for, and that must be found now or never. Fall in NOW, and become active workers. This is surely an opportunity, and to follow the old adage, "This is only smoke, the big blaze in to follow." The field of the U. N. L. A. is very wide. It has a big business side, commercial, industrial and 'otherwise. There will be enough for everyone who will fit in, a glowing, opportunity for the man or woman who is willing to work and 'make good. Success is in ahead. In the breeze. Therefore, why stand ye by and gaze? The harvest is ready, but the laborers pre-go. Go ye therefore and make ready. SAN JUAN, P. R., Jan. 10.—An airplane skimmed above the tunnels of an outbound mail ship at 5 o'clock this afternoon bringing the first air mail from the United States. The trip was made from Miami, with two stops, and the ship landed on time to the minute. It took off from Santiago, Guila, this morning at 7 o'clock, carrying eight pouchs, of mail and two passengers, left two pouchs at Santo Domingo and took off again at 1:00. A plane leaving here Friday morning will make possible delivery of mail in New York before the stealthship drops. The arrival of the plane here marks the completion of the northeast part of a mail line which eventually will serve the entire hemisphere. French lines now carrying mail in South America along the coast to Trinidad will connect with the line. In the same way that the transcontinental railroads connected after having been built from both coasts, the air mail lines reaching from north and south will be linked over the ocean expense separating Trinidad and Porto Rico. The reception of the plane was the most important event here today. All afternoon launches transported tyling company guests to the, field, and when the craft appeared over the harbor half a mile away the shore was lined with cheering Porto Ricans. While army and government officials and newspapermen thronged the island flying field, immigration and custom, inspectors were on hand to inspect the baggage and papers of the passengers, Bruce Goulde, ewepaper writer, and P. M., Hambleton, vice-president of Pan-American Airways. MIAMI, Fla., Jan. 10.—The first air-mail from the West Indies to Miami amounting to between 10,000 and 15,600 pieces, arrived here ten minutes ahead of schedule when the Christopher Columbus, flagship of the Pan American Airways fleet, talked up to the hangar at 8:98 p.m. today. The arrival of the ship from Porto Rico marked completion of inaugura- tion of air mail service between the United States and the West Indies. In addition to the San Juan mail, several thousand pieces were picked up at Santo Domingo and Port au Prince on the return trip. Seven passengers arrived on the West Indies Air Limiged from Havana tonight. LONDON, Jan. 14—King Amanullah of Afghanistan has abdicated, official advises received here said today. The report came as a surprise, since it was understood he had pacified the rebellious tribesmen in his country by last week's proclamation withdrawing most of the reforns he had attempted to introduce. Amanullah abdicated in favor of his brother, Prince Imagatoullah Khan, the advises said. Amanullah was reported to have fled to Kandahar. No mention was made of the fate of Queen Souriya. The abdication of King Amanullah marks the end of a disastrous attempt to Occidentalize the Oriental Kingdom. For weeks the little country has been in fierce revolt for "the right to be its own self without having 'modernism forced upon it.'" King Amanuilah and his Queen returned to their country from a visit to Europe several months ago and immediately set out to bring the land up to date. Western clothes and Western habits alike were ordered for the people. Women were ordered to abandon their veils. Girls were sent to other countries to be educated. Ancient court customs were abandoned. And along with this musical comedy-like effort at remodeling a people's life over night the King attempted to organize his half free, tribesmen into a standing army and to break the power of the priestshood. The tribesmen and the priests revolted. They attacked Kabul, the capital, and at one time almost succeeded in capturing it. Europeans were evacuated by airplanes when fighting occurred in the streets. Recently it had appeared that the King had gained the upper hand. Reports of peace agreements with powerful tribal leaders, based on abandonment of Western ideas and restatement of ancient laws—were reported, and it seemed that Amannahiah would keep his throne, though sacrificing his ideals. Today's report, however, indicated that the price of peace was greater than had been supposed. Stature of Japanese Is Traced to Diet BERLIN, Jan. 2. (Science Service). The influence of nourishment upon the development of race characteristics has been shown by certain experiments of Japanese scientists" in Tokyo. To determine whether the slight stature of the Japanese depends upon their rice diet, the regular rice dinner of a group of school children with supplemented by other articles of food such as belong to the diet of races of greater stature. The results of these experiments, carried on for several years, were an increase of several centimeters in stature and several pounds increased weight. A military physician in India made similar experiments with Indian races of varying stature. Sikhs and Pathana are larger than other Indians using other diets. The Mohammedan Sikhs eat milk, cheese and vegetables, which other Indian races of the Brahman religion do not eat. To carry the investigations further, a litter of rats, whose metaphylis is similar to that of mankind, was taken. One half were fed with food such as the Slims and Pathans use, and the other half with normal Indian food. Frequent experiments showed that the "Slim-Pathan" group attained a considerable size, while the other group remained much smaller. Oil in Libyan Desert Found by Surveyors Calico, Jan. 15. Unexpected sources of oil have been discovered during survey operations in the Libyan Desert west of Alexandria, in connection with the recently reported Kattarax depression scheme. No details so far are forthcoming, but it is understood that the government regards the discovery us of some importance. NEW YORK, LIBERTY HALL, SUNDAY NIGHT, Jan. 13. A very interesting meeting of the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association was held as usual tonight in spite of the severe weather, thus again showing the high-water mark of the morale of the membership. Hon. Mme. M. L. T. deMena was the principal speaker of the evening. There were also present Hon. C. L. James, High Commissioner of the State of New Jersey, who recently recovered from a severe illness of pneumonia; Miss E. M. Collins, 2nd Vice-President, and Mr. Pettis, Acting Vice-President, who acted as Chairman of the meeting. A pretty spectacle for the evening was a member of the Juvenile Cadet Corps, holding aloft in a booth, draped in the Red, Black and Green a copy of The Negro World, with Black Cross Nurses holding candles on either side, thus portraying to the world that this pioneer newspaper is a beacon light to the Negroes of the-world.

SMITH ADDRESS Mr. J. Smith was the first speaker. He said there was no prescribed law that the white man of Europe should rule the black peoples of the world. All men were made free to rule and govern themselves. Propaganda has done more to defeat the good intentions of races and nations than even open warfare. Propaganda is a means used by organized peoples to convert others against their will. We of the Negro race are suffering more than any other race in the world from propaganda to destroy our hopes, our ambitions and our confidence in ourselves. Let us all join hearts and hands together from all parts of the world, realizing that we are seeking nationhood and a government. MISS-COLLINS'S ADDRESS Miss Ethel Collins was next heard. She said: The search for truth is no longer a mere adventure, but it is now a systematic process and is logical in its operation. In seeking the truth we are seeking the cause; we know that every human experience is an effect. The effect or the experience will be within our control; if we are able to find that cause. Human experience will then no longer be the football of fate; a man will not be the child of fortune, but destiny. Fate and fortune will be controlled as readily as a captain controls his vessel, or an engineer his train. Truth is powerful, truth is just, truth destroys error, and light destroys darkness. Truth, though crushed to earth, shall often rise again as a dominant power to be reckoned with. Power is the only argument that satisfies man. It was the physical and pugilistic power of Harry Wills that made men afraid to fight him. It is the industrial and scientific power of the Teutonic race that kept it for years in the forefront in Europe. It is the commercial and financial power of the United States of America that makes her the greatest nation in the world. Man is not satisfied or moved by prayers or petitions, but every man is moved by that power of authority which forces him to do even against his will. Was Without a Purpose. For the last four hundred years the Negro has been in the position of being commanded even as the lower ant- male are controlled. Our race has been without a will, without a purpose of its own, until the advent of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Hon. Marcus Garvey. We seed men of character, men of purpose, men of confidence, men of faith in themselves to dare and do the things necessary in the building of a nation like other races. We, the scattered children of Ethiopia, are determined to lift our lives out of the mire and degradation that we find ourselves in through the effects of slavery. We gave civilization to the world, and we shall again occupy our gilient position when Ethiopia was in his glory. HON. C. L. JAMES' ADDRESS Hon. C. L. James, High Commissioner, said: It gives me no small amount of pleasure to be here tonight and take part in your activities. But a few weeks ago and it not been for Providence and care I would have, passed from the scene of this life owing to a terrible spell of illness. Tonight I wish to speak to you from the subject, "Turn Your Face Toward the Light and Your Shadow. Will Fall Behind You." This Light has been knocked from the island of Jamaica and has caused the Negro peoples to respond to the call of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. This Light came to American, and everybody tried their best to destroy it. The Light was placed in prison, and the prison became, illuminated. Banish Hypocrisy. I am asking you in New York to turn on the scarelight and rid yourself of the hypocrisy, rid yourself of doubt, rid yourself of hatred one, for the other. Let Garvey stand before you as the beacon light of the Negro peoples of the world. Here we are in a white civilization. We are everything by accident, but we are sons and daughters of one great human family. Garvey gave us the vision. We were sleep before he came. Eugene Chen heard the call-of "Africa for the Africans," and he arose and throwout the call to his race, "China for the Chinese," and today he has a recognized nation. Get Power What are we, the black race, today? Are you going to allow yourself to be left in the background of the world's readmission of human affairs? I say, No. Then follow Mr. Garvey and the principles of the Association. Our race has accomplished nothing materially on the pages of newspapers. Come to the office of the lawyer and get your answer, and your解答 will be requested. If you are a Garveyed the world must know it by your actions, one toward the other. On no impatience to your fellowship. Now that our temporary office is at hand let us work to that objection, for it spells ultimate success. Hon. Mina de Monez Address Hon. Mina M. I. L. T. de Monez, International organization, was the first speaker, she said, among other things: It is most encouraging from time to time to come to Liberty Hall, those of us who represent, and belong to the folds of the, Universal Negro Improvement Association. The Negro World newspaper, which is our pioneer periodical, showed to the world from its beginning, through the efforts of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, there was in the black race that capability of doing for themselves, instead of being dictated to. It is the cleanest sheet in the world. No other paper will carry what we will, because of the lack* of backbone. The Light The Negro World is the light on the right and on the left for its education facilities in the making of a people. Here is a boy in our midst, adding up a paper, speaking of "Africa for the Africans, at home and abroad." This paper published the dream of Garvey with his Black Cross Nurses, whom you now see holding the candle-light of love, of liberty and of freedom Garvey struck a match and lighted the trail of the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world and built up a monument in the hearts of our race. Through Garvey's brain we shall have a United States of Africa. This picture that I present to you tonight, tells you that, through the agency of this paper, Marcus Garvey accomplished in ten years what other races took 100 years to do. If men had been true to their trust, we would have had our Black Star Line today. Those of us who try to break up the honest labor of our leader shall regret it sooner or later. This pioneer newspaper is, Garvey's voice crying in the wilderness. We shall live as a race group and look about our own business, for to us the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the breath of life. I am again asking the membership of the organization to keep cool. Keep the spirit moving, for in due time we shall reap what we sew. Woman Question to Fore In Afghan Peace Talk NEW DEGLIH; India, Jan. 2—Hoslity to Queen Soriya and her family and opposition to abolition of the purdah, or seclusion of women, will be two of the problem to come up at peace negotiations now going on at Jalalabad between the Shinwaris and All Ahmed Jan, former governor of Kabul, who already has handed substantial sums to the rebel tribesmen. It is understood the tribes are keen for the restoration of authority, in government affairs to the mullahs, or Mohammedan priests, who are opposed to abolishing the purdah and are hostile to the queen. Large reinforcements have reached Kabul from Kaqdahar and Mezgarshiriff. The roads between Jalalabad and Kabul are still blocked and no caravans are going to the Afghan capital. JEWISH MOUNTAINEERS PRESERVE BIBLICAL RELICS IN ABYSSIRIA-HIGHLANDS ADDIS ABABA, Jan. 5.—The only Jewish mountainainer in the world live in Abysinia. These tribesmen, Falasians as they call themselves, inhabit the highlands of what was once part of the ancient kingdom of Shiah, the north of the Negus country. The Falasian have a typical Jewish appearance, but lack most of the conventional habits and attributes of that race. Neither they nor their ancestors have ever engaged in trade. They are trappers and rarely mingle with the Abysinians in the towns and villages of the lowland. They adhere to the biblical traditions of the ancestors, practice the usual rites and perform a rude imitation of the passover ceremonies. They have neither temples nor rabbis. In the fastnesses of their mountains they preserve a quintet mchagny casket a venerable parchment copy of the pentachute, which their chiefs alleged came down to them direct from King Solomon through the Queen of Sheba. During the coronation of Ran Taffar as Emperor of Abyssinia, representatives of the Falasha tribes presented to the new monarch a copy of the manuscripts which King Solomon sent the Queen of Sheba before they were married. These are said to contain the earliest known love letters from a monarch to his royal consort. Congo Farmers Train LELLE PROVINCE, Belgian Congo, Jan. 12. — Domiciled elephants for use on farms have been developed here after twenty years of patient research and practical experience. Special training schools have been established in the Uille Province of Belgian Congo, and the animals are hired out to rancheros and lumber merchants. The work of a trained elephant is equal to that of eight to twelve oxen or three of the best European farm horses. The fowler cucumber has succumbed to science. "A crop between an English forcing cucumber and the Arlington White Spine "has given rise in the fourth generation to a forcing cucumber of commercial provinces which is not dependent upon the weather conditions lengthy" or hard-affirmation. WARHINGTON, Jan. 16. Complete revision for United States diplomatic service in Latin America will be started by Hugh Hewitt even after he assumes office as President. The diplomatic shake-up, it was learned from those close to the President-elect on his good will, trip, will go as far as the acceptance of the resignation of Ambassador and Ministers in Latin America, with probably less than a half dozen exceptions. Among the exceptions will be Edwin V. Morgan, Ambassador to Brazil and Dwight W. Mortow, Ambassador to Mexico, who continues to be favorably mentioned for Secretary of State. Mr. Hoover's decision to launch this sweeping housecleaning is the result of his conviction, strengthened by his Latin-American tour, that relations between the United States and its Southern neighbors are more important than those with any other part of the world and that therefore the conduct of these relations has been more muddled than with any other continent. Secretary of State Kohlgall, in discussing the Diplomatic Service, recently pointed out, that it was difficult to get the men he most wanted to accept appointments at the Latin-American posts. While China and Japan have had their diplomatic specialists who have spent years in studying the language and customs of the people, and while Turkey and Greece, Poland and the Near East also have their American diplomatic specialists, Latin-America generally has received a rather disgruntled group of diplomats, who remained there with one eye cocked on the first European vacancy. Since the Lawrence Dennis criticism of laborism in the service and since recent Congressional Investigation, this situation has begun to change. However, Mr. Hoover returned convinced that the American government for greater improvement. He already has begun to search for men having the very exacting qualifications necessary for successful service in Latin-America. He was much impressed by the muller in which Ambassador Morgan had won the sympathy and understanding of the Brazilian people. Many changes will be made immediately, while others will not occur until some months after Mr. Hoover assumes office. NAIROBI, Kenya Colony South Africa, Jan. 9.—Young men of the Masai tribe, who have just been received in the warrior rite and were anxious to demonstrate their manhood by the ancient custom "blooding" their sword," have caused outbreaks in some areas of the Masai Reservation. Several tribesmen have been killed and Colonial police have been sent to the affected area. Since however, the condition is a periodical and, no serious developments are expected. Masai Tribo Worships Nature God and Pythonz The Mansi, nomadic people of Negro-Hamill stock, speaking a Nilotic language, have for centuries been masters of the greater part of inner East Africa from Ugogo on the south to Mount Kenya on the north. They are the finest physical type in Africa, slender of build, the men often well over six feet in height, with chocolate-colored skin, noses of the Caucasian type and eyes slightly oblique, like those of Mongolians. They worship a nature god and also python, which they regard as reincarnations of their ancestors. Spitting in a mark of reverence and a sign of goodwill among them, all greetings and the sealing of bargains being accompanied by an exchange of it. The Mansi pull all the hair oft of their bodies and off their heads with sweaters. Their warriors wear red calico about their waists, ostrich feathers around their faces, caps of lion skin and white fur around their knees. Estimated at 3,215,000 CHICAGO, Dec. 27. It is further intreached as the second city of the United States, with a population of 3,125,000, figures compiled by the Chicago Association of Commerce show.

MURPHY CO., Burlington, KY. www.a.c.murphy.com LAND CARNIVAL (From the New York Times) KINGSTON, Jamaica, Jan. 6—White Nelson walked Al's garden quarter deck, and Henry Morgan, upon the first cocktail in Caribbean water, the Americans air yacht Liberty at anchor today in Kingston, where the big amphibian was guided 140 miles of open sea in the westward passage from Haiti. Our departure from the Haitian capital yesterday morning was delayed more than an hour by the sonarrival of bensol, an ingredient which puts special strain into aviation gasoline. Our three motors take about forty gallons of it per flying hour. On the crest of a wind from the east, we headed westward across the Gulf of Conales and ticked off 120 miles to Cape Dame Marie in little more than half that number of minutes. From that point, which is land-and on the west Haitian coast, Pilot Frederick Becker put the ship on a course slightly south of west and we started-over the water. The only land sighted in transit was Navassa Island, an American possession located almost at the centre of the windward passage and occupied by two persons. We endeavored to communicate by radio with the lighthouse keeper there, but failed to get a response. Shieldon Fogg, the new naval radio man, was advised by the operator at the United States naval station miles away at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, that it was no use in talking to Navassa except at $ a. m. or 4 p. m. The Liberty, is the first private air yacht to visit Kingston. The American copan, Jorge de Alvarez, reached the ship first on a launch and advised Mr. Becker, that it was necessary to make an official landing at Port Royal, 50 miles away, at the other, end of the large harbor and submit to quarantine and customs inspection. This short hop effected Alvarez took the airship owner, J. M. Patterson, and daughter, Alicia Simpson, on board for an exciting trip across the bay to the town whip, Mr. Becker, drew the ship to its present ring berth to the lee of a rum wharf. Governor Sir Edward Stubba received the air yachtmen at King's House and the party, spent the remainder of yesterday and today visiting the historic spots of the island paradise. We expect to hop to Cuba tomorrow. Revenue of 48 States $1,758,381,000 in 1927 WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.—Total revenues collected by the governments of the forty-eight states during 1927 amounted to $1,765,381,900, and the expenditures for the same year in operating and maintaining their general departments totaled $1,726,989,016. The Census Bureau, in reporting the statistics today, said that the expenditures included costs of permanent improvements, such as $40,163,954 for highway construction, which, if subtracted, made the actual cost of running state governments, exclusive of such investment, amount to $1,120,004,855, or $6.55 per capita of the country's population. The 1927 revenues of $1,758,281,000 compared with a total for 1926 of $1,655,455,000, and for 1924 of $1,870, 066,000. The 1927 expenditures of $1,129,472,000, for regularity-recurring governmental maintenance compared with like expenditures in 1926 of $1,093,310,000 and in 1924 of $1,102, 504,000. The net debt of states at the end of 1927 was $1,444,927,000, against $1,327,514,000 for 1925 and $1,130,094,000 for 1924. The assessed valuation of the property taxed within the forty-eight states had a gold total of $146,432,877,561 in 1927, or n per capita of $1,248,500 for the country's population. While the general property tax furnished a large part of the state revenues, the chief item of receipts was from license sales, which in 1927 furnished the states with $672,224,000. HAVANA, Jan. 2. — Dr. Francisco Marin Fernandez, Cuban Secretary of Sanitation, has been elected president of the Pan-American Medical Association for 1929. Panama City was selected for the second congress of the association next year. The date will not be made public for the present. The Panamanian Government made the offer through Dr. Jaime de la Guardia, delegate from Panama. Dr. J. W. Valentine, urologist of New York, was chosen president-elect for 1931. Among the vice-presidents elected were Dr. William J. Mayo and Dr. Llewellyn Barker, both from the United States. Dr. Conpad Burens was re-elected congressman and Dr. Lee M. Hurd treasurer. 666 VS.

FINSTON Box 47, Hamilton Orange P. O. NEW YORK CITY. S. AFRICAN WOMAN SUES DETECTIVE FOR SEARCHING HOME FOR LIQUOR WITHOUT WARRANT; GETS DAMAGES (From The Johannsburg Star) The circumstances in which a detective may enter unlicensed premises to search for liquor without having provided himself with a search warrant were discussed at the Benoni Magistrate's Court when a native woman, Elizabeth Mingona, sued Detective P. Ferreira of the Benoni C.I.D for £13 15s, damages, alleging that on May 13 last he broke into her house without a warrant and damaged some linalole. In his plea Ferreira stated that his entry or the premises had been made on reasonable suspicion of intoxicating liquor being, hidden there. He did not damage any linalole and all his actions were without malice. The action was heard before Mr. F. P. Sampom, Mr. E. C. Barrett appearing for the plaintiff and Mr. Norris for Ferreira. Elizabeth, who lives in the Benoit location, said she was standing in her room cooking when Detective Forrester came in through the back door, which was open. She asked him what he wanted and he replied: "I've come to arrest you today," and then searched her bedroom and the other rooms of the house. In pulling up a linoleum mat pulled to the floor he tore it and then dug underneath. The detective, who had updated the house on previous occasions; did not show her a warrant Detective Connubio P. W. Forrester said he went to Elizabeth's stand in the Benoit location to search for liquor, accompanied by Plet, a native police boy. There were two or three drunken women in the kitchen, while this containing stockman dregs were lying on the floor, on which liquor had been split. Witness ordered these women out and went into Elizabeth's bedroom. Part of the linoleum on the floor was loose, and witness told Elizabeth and Gilliam he had information that "moror was buried there. He lifted the carpet, Collins assisting, and the carpet was torn. Collins exclaimed: "Oh, it's an old carpet; it doesn't matter very much." In the yard witness found several thus contaguing stockman dregs. The search had been urgent and witnesses had no time to get a warrant, so he reported the result of the search to the district commandant in accordance with the requirements of the law. Later he arrested Elizabeth for being in possession of liquor. The floor of the room was damp. The lino衣 matted and had to tear. Witness used his iron. -If he tore the lino it was accidental. The lino was worth no more than $4. The native informer, Plud, gave similar evidence. Mr. Barrett argued that in a search there should be reasonable grounds for suspecting liquor was sold or kept for sale, but there was no evidence of this.

Municipal Court for Harlem Is Needed to End Law's Delay Serving nearly a million residents, the Seventh District Municipal Court, embracing Harlem and the Heights, will be divided into two parts if a campaign to this effect, launched by Harlem civic organizations, is successful. The movement was inspired by the approaching removal of the court from its present inadequate quarters on One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street, to a new building constructed on the Heights, and it is backed by the Harlem Board of Commerce, the West Harlem Business Men's Association, the Harlem Luncheon Association, the Anthony La Rocca Association and the Harlem attorneys. The removal of the court from Harlem will work a great hagglip upon the residents of that community, it is contended. Speaking of this phase of the movement Jacob Welz, of No. 271 West One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street, prominent Harlem attorney, said: Quota Law Delay A resolution to postpone for another year the putting into effect of the national original clause in the imminent Act.

A mentee have made her my experience, have I made them offer my making you with the THERE is a lesson for every North in the accord just arrived at between Zionists and non-Zionists in the movements to build a Jewish nation in Palestine. At a meeting held in New York City last Sunday differences were composed and the hitherto warring factions decided to work in harmony in pushing the appeal for the necessary funds to speed the glorious work in the homeland. Rev. Dr. Joseph Silverman, we are told, stirred enthusiasm when he called for a servant and whole-hearted spirit of co-operation for the success of the Palestine Fund. Some of his remarks will bear reproduction here. He said: "Just thirty-five years ago the first Zionist meeting was held here in New York. Nothing was accomplished there. It ended in strife, and I believe the chairman really prevented blows or bloodshed when he hastily adjourned the conference. "Now the world has given Palestine back to us again. After 2,000 years, that land which once belonged to the Jew is ours for the taking again, without a quarrel, without the firing of a single gun. We have before us a great responsibility and a challenge to all of us which we must not shirk. "A contribution to this fund, we must realize, will not force Jewish nationalism upon those in the United States or elsewhere and will not influence their independence. That nationalism will have influence only over those in Palestine itself." Negroes, like Jews, now have their eyes on the homeland. A national home is as necessary for the one group as the other. But the comparison ends there, unfortunately. Negroes, unlike the Jews, do not seem disposed to sink their differences for the common good. Some Negroes, and intelligent Negroes at that, still talk the arant nonsense that Marcus Garvey wants the United States to deport all Negroes to Africa. Negroes, unlike Jews, are still disposed to take orders from others as to whether they shall or shall not support the Africa redemption plan with their dollars. Negroes, unlike Jews, are too easily cast down by temporary setbacks. The Black Star Line, Inc., failed, and some Negroes profess to see in this the blasting of all hopes of nationalism. The Jews, in their back-to-Palestine effort, also put a steamship on the seas. Their undertaking failed, the ship is no more, but the good work 'prospers'. No one points to this failure as any reason why the redemption of Palestine should not receive the full, financial support of Jews. "After 2,000 years," "Without a quarrel," "Without firing-a single gun." Here is inspiration. Negroes. Get together and be as earnest about building a nation in Africa as the Jews are about redeeming their homeland. AMANULLAH'S LIGHTNING FALL REFORM has hit a snag in far-off Afghanistan. Kinz Amannulah, who recently returned to his mountain kingdom loaded with gifts from the rulers of Europe and after an orgy of wining and dining almost unparalleled in modern times, has been forced to take to flight. The "rebel tribesmen," we are told, descended in great strength on Kabul, the capital, and all but succeeded in making him a prisoner there, are in command. The priests, whose power, it is said, Amannulah sought to cut, are jubilant. The meagre, censored reports of the uprising, its cause and extent, furnish the only news the outside world has had of this significant happening. If these reports are to be swallowed whole, King Amannulah, a young monarch, his head filled with progressive ideas gained through his tour of progressive Europe, sought to modernize his "backward subjects." And, fools that they were, they would not be modernized. They seemed to say, as Kipling said, "East is East and West is West, and neer the twain shall meet." We do not believe that everything is in Afghanistan as it is being painted in the press. Maybe the simple-minded Afghans also know of the great strategic importance their country assumes in the eyes of England, situated as Afghanistan is on the border of a troubled India, and, perhaps, they got it into their heads that British royalty and British field marshals and lords of the admiralty were at too great pains to honor their ambient Amanullah. Amanullah, no doubt, will spend many a moment in his exile regretting his reformation haste, was not more slowly made. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention, to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. NATIONHOOD THE ONLY CURE THAT something more than interracial conferences, between so-called white liberals and a few high-brow gentlemen of color is needed to curb the manifestations of race prejudice in the United States of America and elsewhere is becoming clearer and clearer every day. We hold to the view that conferences between black and white in a false air of friendliness and mutual respect are worse than useless—that nothing of value can come out of rounded speeches by oppressor to oppressed, and vice versa. We maintain that education, as some suggest, will not solve the problem, nor can a whole army of eminent psycho-analysts, from whose breasts every particle of prejudice has, by some miracle, been dusted, accomplish the least good. Wealth has always been contemptuous of poverty, power of weakness, a majority of a minority. Prejudice lurks in the breasts of the intelligent no less than in the breasts of the ignorant, and though, in the case of the former, it manifests itself in more subtle and less vulgar forms than in the case of the latter, yet the net results of the animus of the two species are similarly devastating. The following editorial from The Nation, a weekly magazine published in New York, gives a fair sample of what the weak are called upon to suffer in the hands of the prejudiced strong: Louisiana adds to her record of two lynchings in 1928 a story of wanton murder as shocking and even incredible as any hereof-reported. Except that the story comes from the New Orleans States, a reputable white newspaper which would not be likely to print a title of white violence against Negroes without ample substantiation, the report could hardly be credited. An editorial from the States for December 31, 1928, tells the story: The Monroe News-Star tells of an unusually shocking affair that occurred in Jackson Parish, Christmas-Day, in which two Negro women were shot down and a third, perhaps fatally, wounded, white men doing the shooting. The cause of the shooting was a dispute over a dog owned by a plantation owner, loaned to a white neighbor, and sought in return by a Negro tenant at the request of the dog's owner. The States continues: The tenant sought to carry out the wishes of his mistress, but the men who had the dog refused to deliver it to him. Subsequently a party of white men, including those to whom the dog had been loaned, went to the tenant's quarters, some under influence of liquor, and found not the tenant, but his wife, four daughters, and a grandchild. They told the Negro women they intended to keep the dog. Words passed, whereupon the visitors ordered the women to stand up in line and be killed. The latter, thinking the men were jesting, made no attempt to escape. Thereupon one or more of the white party, opened fire, killing a girl of 15, another of 20 with a babe in her arms, fatally wounding a third daughter and shooting the mother in the shoulder. Nothing retards the reposition of a group so much as its failure to measure up to its opportunities in those fields where there is an abundant supply of material and a dearth of effort. The "talented tenth" of the group must be heard from in a substantial way, and this means of encouraging its activity must a response in some quarters where genius is encouraged by a public attitude to consume the productions coming from its effort. Negro achievement in the arts, education, health, and art as well as achievement in political and economic progress, that makes history. History must not only be written in deeds of achievement, it must be assembled in form and enriched with interest. It must have a soul as well as a body, an audience as well as an actor. - Birmingham Reporter. It is to the credit of the States that it calls the affair "an inexecutable crime, cowardly, brutal, and ferocious." Indeed what story of Red Terror in Russia, of White Terror in Hungary, can be more ferocious than this murder in Louisiana, in the United States of America? We are convinced that any efforts to solve the race question which do not aim at making the Negro race self-supporting are doomed to failure. In other words, the Negro is despised and ill-treated because of his condition, and only when he has been uplifted politically and economically will he be able to demand from other men and receive the treatment that should be accorded every human being by his fellows. The Negro must become powerful, must be able if necessary, to wield the big stick, if he is to be respected by others in this wordly civilization. He must build for himself a great nation and, backed by the influence that proceeds from the possession of power, have his say when the rulers of nations meet. The trouble with the fellow who claims to know everything is that usually he has spent a life building a past—but he can tell everyone else how to make a future.—Indianapolis Recorder. But the Negro cannot build a nation in America, or, for that matter, in any part of the known world except Africa. And, after all, Africa is the Negro's birthright. Let those white liberals, therefore, who grieve over the Negro's plight and who are outraged at the injustices heaped upon him, lend their aid to the plan to build a Negro nation on the continent of Africa—such a nation as will be capable of protecting the rights and persons of Negroes wherever they happen to be. Let the intellectuals of the Negro-race stop seeking to dam the Mississippi River and devote their talents seriously to a solution of the Negro problem, based upon the acquisition of nationhood status in Africa. We resolve to dissolve our various betty clilaus and factions and really practice race solidarity, and co-operation, in the civic, moral, educational and economic welfare of our city. That means we are to be courageous and true by burning up our suspicions and superstititions and selfishness, so that we may be guided and governed by the desire to be of service to others, promoting a big, broad program of progress so that 1929 may be written high in the realm of advancement in big letters—Washington Tribute. If 1929 saw not a single lynching in this land, the plight of the Negro race would, in truth and in fact, remain the same. There are no lynchings in England or on the continent of Europe, but there the Negro is not given a man's chance to live and breathe. What is needed is hearty co-operation by race leaders, who are not afflicted with jealousy of each other, in the working out of the international programme for race uplift along the lines advocated by Marcus Garvey, the President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It is the weak and lowly condition of the Negro which invites abuses and the damnable manifestations of prejudice. This condition must be improved, must be removed, and the intelligentsia of the race, joining hearts and hands, can do wonders in ancelorizing this condition. When a man is afflicted with rheumatism the specialist does not describe saliva. He gets a full history from the patient and he has blood test and other tests made. Thus he gets to the root of the Men of courage, daring and improvable self-confidence are an asset to the world, though they may over-shoot their mark and sometimes wreck the faith and fortune of themselves and others. They often, however, by making new trails and charting uncharted courses, which more than souls would never dare to trust, advance civilization and race beyond the outposts—Indianapolis Records. Most of us are old-fashioned enough to make resolutions. There are the cynical and those who are who know what's the man of making resolutions. They claim that they do not make them. They are of the devil. They would have a man grove] in the dirt and stay there. They would have a man lazy and good for nothing, ignorant and of no use to himself and still remain in this condition. But we say, let a man make a new resolution; let him have a new lease on life; let him start mow and there is no better time to start than at the New Year.—Christian Recorder. The conquest of truth hectes with the warying of war against self-conceit, for it is impossible for a man to begin to learn what he thinks he already knows.—Washington Sun. But is it not a sad commentary on American civilization that public sentiment should be so abused in Mississippi that a governor feels that he may violate his oath of office with impunity and be honored for so doing?—Omma Monitor. The problem of leadership and the problem of co-operation are too closely interwoven to be divided. Race leadership must fall if there is, not one solid body supporting it. He who follows zealously is just as essential as the man who leads. What good is the general without the army—and vice versa? Both are essential ingredients—Atlanta Independent. World fellowship will come. It must come. Centuries ago the pioneering spirit of the Caucasian sent him hither and thither over the globe, deliberately sealt, but unconceisely sewing together the human race in contacts which commerce is now making permanent—Kansas City Call. Age and death are inevitable. It is the Jaw of nature. Time hies; it loiters not nor lingers. It moves on continuously and animates and immanates things, visible and invisible entities are affected by it. The year ago was rapidly. The end of the pilgrimage is three hundred and sixty-five days. Within that purge it completes its work—it brings its greatest its pain, its successes, failures. Its work is not a success, not a failure, not to return. It has lost forever the opportunity to do what it might have done—Star of Siena. TABORIAN, Herman Schultz. American man in the ancient world who is dedicated to the study of ancient prehistory of modern man and survived today by Louis B. Leakey, head of the New African Archaeological Expedition, who has been exploring for prehistoric remains in a big cave in the Montana area of Kenya. "Mr. Leakey is very much it means that Kenya is very near the original site of present-day man. The specimen is intact except . . . a pick-a-x' hole in the skull, and it has been removed complete with the surrounding earth. The body had been buried with the knees under the chin, and according to Mr. Leakey, it is unmistakably of the homo sapiens type. Mr. Leakey definitely places it in the early second African plurial period, when Europe was still frozen under glacial ice, reaching as far south as the River Thames and into Central Germany and Russia. So far fourteen distinct time layers have been 1 covered in Mr. Leakey's African cave. They tell a connected story from the earliest prehistoric times to the present occupation by black tribesmen. According to Mr. Leakey's account today the conditions near the cave have been ideal for the preservation of geological deposits which establish a chronological sequence of the cultures and show their relationships to the succeessive climatic periods. The importance of Mr. Leakey's discovery may be judged from the fact that the Aurignacian man, corresponding to this African skeleton, is only traceable in Europe at a much later date. Mr. Leakey hopes that by digging still lower in the cave he can establish the existence of human beings during the first African pluvial period. SKIN OF THE BODY PEREORMS TASKS THAT FEW REALIZE Probably few persons realize the variety of tasks that the skin performs. The skin is the part of the body that is concerned with the relation of the body to its environment. Dr. B. C. Harvey's its functions in Hysloph. The skin must defend the body against mechanical violence, animate loss of water or loss of water and other fluids. It must keep out bacteria and pions. It must regulate the temperature, which in health is constant, arranging for retention of heat and moisture. It is necessary. It makes weapons of defence, such as the nails. It is particularly exposed to wear and tear and muse renew the surface tissue when that is scraped of worn away. The skin does all these things at the same time and to just the extent necessary. In addition it provides nourishment for the infant; it keeps the eye covered with salt water (we could not see through a dry membrane); it makes a tube which allows air waves to get to the drum membrane of the ear and keeps insects out; it provides a firm, non-slipping surface for hands and feet, and performs a hundred other special services in different parts of the body, Dr. Harvey points out. Solves the Problem of How Juice Gets into the Orange How does juice set into the orange and why does it stay there for days (or weeks) on the pedder's curt? Dr. Howard S. Reed found that the juice travels through the pool and that a substance like gel, called plum, which of late is coming into prominence in foods, absorbs the juice and transfers it into the cells. But the plum is a one-way traffic cop, and once in the cells the juice stays there until along comes Homo Sapiens with a knife or set of teeth. The blind spot of our eyes is not so blind as herefore thought, represted Prof. Harry Helson of Ryuai Maur. The blind spot always has been demonstrated by moving a black spot on a piece of paper before one eye until the spot seems to vanish. But if the experiment be reversed, and the spot in a spot of light on a black background, the blind spot "sees" it and even distinguishes color. Prof. Helson concludes that not only the "rods and cones of the retina" but all protoplasm responds to light stimulation. HOMELY PHILOSOPHY We are forever wishing for things, just things, many, and various, and expecting that happiness will come to us with each new possession, each added to toy. But also! we remain unattained, still longing and pressing for more, and building at last we learn that contentment does not come because of what we have, but because of what we are—GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON. THE FADED VIOLET Meaning of the Word "Native" Altered By Whites to Indicate "Inferiority" By LAWRENCE J. ROONE (in the Correspondence of Berthe Gopreted Reppon) After an intensive study of the so-called British Empire one may readily see that. It is an empire that is rapidly disintegrating. In reality, it is only a loose union of wildly separated colonies. Canada, Australia and Egypt, three of England's principal possessions are hardly under strict English rule. They are practically independent countries. There are several reasons why these countries have gained their almost complete freedom. If we investigate the records, the histories of these countries, we find that the populations are composed of people that will not, in none of these countries, be political or economic persecution. While in none of these three countries does the population approach that of India, nevertheless their comparatively small numbers did not deter the people from taking a firm on their declaration of independence. Only after bitterness and hatred from Egypt, did the colonies secure the liberty for which they had fought for countries. "And in all this discussion there is one big factor missing. Has the vast India Empire taken no part in this universal flight for freedom? Once the immense territory has attained its freedom, the British Empire is no more. It has crumbled, disappeared; its sole foundation has ceased to support it. It is a known fact that without India to bear the burden of British imperialism, England will sink into oblivion. Evidences of this burdensome imperialistic policy are found everywhere in India. Why has there been no development in India economy where it has been under British rule? English business methods have sapped the resources of the country. Agricultural methods that are needed to feed the shrinking in certain sections of the country where failure of crops-accurre, age eximated of England to make bread for the well-fed, thriving capitalist. This method, like no many other obviously ruinous ways or originating India's resources, is still further hustoning India's retrogradation. There must, he some' step to this dissentious manner of controlling India's trade and commerce. Mr Mayo says, "We must only the Indians themselves for the (From The Gold Coast Spectator) The term "native" has always been the object of much controversy. Its original meaning is losing itself because of the general European and American interpretation by which the word is used dogmatically in reference to any member of a supposedly backward race. It is made to apply to the Africans in Africa, the Indians in India and to a few other tribes in the East. In countries where people of African ancestry have been in close proximity with the society of the white man for a number of years these African descendants are designated "colonial" Africans, which in implied as the synonym of "native" although with a general reception of some degree of respect which is more trouble than deferential. With the usual rapid gift or adaptation and resourcefulness which have always been at the white man's command, the meaning of certain words in the certain language has been made to suit certain occasions, and the word "native" in being substituted for any person whose skilz is not white. It is a solicitude introduced not only by those who crave for poverty but more popularly by ignorant persons whose school education must have been defective, or whose inebriety must have perviously plumbed them too deep into the hood of relentless -connectedness. This term is gathering such a hold upon the mind of the educated worker—a day's English that most white men except the highly educated do not stop to think about its meaning. Every person on the known earth is a native, he must, in the natural sequence of necessity, necessarily belong to a particular spot on earth, of which he is a native. In that the African is no less a native than the white or the yellow man. But a person could be an African. TINY DEVICE MEASURES HEAT IN REMOTE STARS TINY DEVICE MEASURES HEAT IN REMOTE STARS Although all the heat, which radiates from all the stars and planets in our universe on a square foot of the earth during a hundred years could barely suffice to melt a thimbleful of ice, scientists have been successfully measuring the heat from individual stars since 1914, Dr. Seth B. Nicholson of the Mount Wilson, California, observatory, told the Amateur Astronomer Association the American Ministers of Natural History. So accurately has the procedure been developed that observers affording the 100 inch telescopes at Mount Wilson in the day time have measured the heat of stars within ten degrees of the Sun, he said. setting conditions. Apparently, the does not take into consideration the treacherous pity that British capitalists play in this miserable piece of business. She mentions nothing whatever of the fact that although Indian farmers are exporting centers in the world most of her wheat is exported, and the grain subsidy from exporting does not go to the Indian farmers. In the main, but chiefly to British merchants, who virtually control the demand, and the supply of wheat. The average Indian who works his small patch of land is faced with the proposition that all Indian farmers must met or if the fertility of the land is exhausted. Such conditions should not exist. The Indian seems to be powerless to prevent the situation. But guided by capable leaders who are backed solidly by all Indians, a decisive victory can be fought. The English government will be forced to curtail the exportation of wheat from their country in preparation when people of India voice a consistent demand for sweeping reforms in this particular field and in everything else. The building up of strong economic or political forces, by the Indians is now rapidly increasing. Only by the complete co-operation of the people of India can reforms be accomplished. Every Indian, regardless of his post, should be a strong supporter to the wheel" and work the country's and his own ultimate salvation. The United States did the same over one hundred and fifty years ago. The hated British Imperialism was overthrown. In the near future the time will come when India will resource all allegiance to England and fight for her freedom as the Americans were compelled to do. Then India, bound by no restraining wills, can enjoy, in a lesser degree, the prosperity which is prevalent in the United States and other Western European countries. The point cannot but be but well stressed, that by the united efforts of the Indian masses such enlightening reforms be accomplished. I have voiced by opinion and, perhaps, the opinions of many others who have the development of Old Indian education. The time. The old imperialism of the last few centuries is dead. The time will surely come when India shall take her place among the foremost countries of the world. I note with interest the recent approval of the treaty with China by the United States. clean native, an English native or a German native, and this is the only acceptable denotation, "not because it suits our purpose, but because it is the only one in this connection which is permissible by idiom. Not very long ago two European ladies went into a shop and addressed the storekeeper, an African, in a tone which would be objectionable to even a major-domo of thee. This did not get the service they expected and it greatly tricked them. "You native! How dare you?" they shouted, getting flushed in the face with anger. What is there derogatory in one being a native? and who is not a native at one place, or another? It is to be deplored that similar use is made of this word in official documents where the term "native" is used freely as anonymous with ignorance or inferiority. The undercurrent in the tone of denotation of this term in ordinances in which there is no satisfactory definition is another cause for regret. The word "African" pure and simple would have been a better term. If it is applied it will bring harmony in the application of certain ordinances. All Africans (as are all white men) are natives, but all natives are not Africans, nor are members of raceless tribes. Incidentally, when ordinances speak of and recognize Africans on one racial plane without the myriad of definitions and clauses there will be no need for certain exemptions to be accorded some Africans in the application of native laws. The laws of Portugal may be practically different in some technicalities from those of England, but an Englishman who comes to be a native will not be accorded any special consideration because of his not being a Portuguese. wires obtainable encased in an airlight glass cell. Light reflected from the telescope's mirror is admitted to the cell through a rock salt window—rock salt being the most transparent material known—and concentrated alternately on the junctions of the two sets of conductors, one of which is made of bismuth, the other of an alloy of bismuth and tin. The difference in the heat of the junctions establishes a thermo-current which is measured by a very delicate thermometer. The temperature of the star is computed. The people are so thin that it is manufactured under a microscope and when completed weighs, but a tenth of a milligram, or about one thousandth the weight of a drop of water, Dr. Nicholson said.

Deeley teeth are the most common defects of school children, and are present in about 20 per cent of them, the United States. Bureau of Education reports today. It is stated that this is due to changes, which were made in man's diet as he became civilized, certain substances essential for making sound teeth having been too scanty in overcrowded foods. "Some races," the Burgean said, "which have followed more closely nature's laws in this respect still have good teeth."

But the black people have not served God in the right way. The only proper way to serve God is to love oneself. It is impossible for any race to serve God in the right way and hate itself. Every race has heretofore led its color and has been given the same other races, except the black race. Negroes have always been wanting to be anything else except black. God made black people just as he did the other races of the earth. He made the black man and gave him Africa. He placed the other races in other parts of the world, and they have proved themselves worthy of God. The black race must do the same. The Honorable Marcus Garvey has taught us to he proud of our color and not to want to mix it with that of other races. We should our proud of our racial origin and seek to preserve it. We must stand and fight like real Africa in the black man's country and he should want to reclaim it. Black men who are not interested in Africa are not true to their race or themselves. When we serve the race faithfully we are serving God in the proper manner. MISE, L. WILKENSON. Detroit, Mich. Men and Women Leaving Liberia by Hundreds To Editor of The New World: Kirkly permit me space to save the Nogrades of the United States and elsewhere a few facts which I personally know about Liberia. Reading through 'The New World of September 3 I came across several comments on the situation existing between Mr. Firestone and Liberia. I am a Jamaican living in West Africa since October 1836, with these intervals between spent in Jamaican Bermuda and England. I spent the most of my time off State. Loving darting, playing golf, and fishing. In January 1918, when I went to the Belgian Congo and worked in the clerical department of the Lever Brothers Company up to October 4, 1923. And so I am conversant with conditions in West Africa. In Professor Biehl's report to the world concerning the little, Nero Republic, its present and future situation with the Firestone Company, every word of his based on fact and truth, I am at present residing in a French colony, and from my observation there has been not less than 200 to 500 men and young women who have left Liberia between February this year and up to date for this and other reasons. I have seen several of these young girls, who are all uneducated, as to the reason for this leaving their homes in such quantities, and they all say that the present existing conditions between the Liberty Government and the Prussian Company, which in the later age, picture smoker forced labor, do not make Liberia a at country for a working class of Negroes to live in. They therefore, flock to, in the French colonies, where they expect to be more at liberty as far as they have heard. A. G. WILLIAMS. Ivory Coast West Africa Nov. 21, 1928. U.

CURRICULATION CORPORATION ```markdown ``` SAN FERNANDO, Trinidad. Jan 21 (CM) - Fyzabad Domo Offielfa caught fire last night and exacted the most appalling toll of human life that has ever been claimed by any oil well or an colony. Fifteen persons were trapped in the fauna, and of their ten, ten were incinerated, four crawled out to die the following day and one has not been seen since. In addition a pumman on the Aprx Qifida, ad- joining, was overtaken at work by the pumman, who was a critical condition in the San Fernandez Hospital. The well was a new one, well No. 3. Just about 5 o'clock in the afternoon of the fatelite day this well came in strong, beads, the roar of which could be heard some considerable distance away. Control devices were put in, and shortly afterward the driver left to attend a dance at Port. of Spain, the capital of this island country. He was not alone before the control gave way, and the crowd was through for him. In the meantime Ralph Sammy, a rich Indian lumber merchant of San Fernando and one of the proprietors of the property, arrived from San Fernando with his family and some friends, bringing forces and tools for emergency workmen. The work was carried on successfully until midnight. Sammy, with the drillers and the others of his party, stood as near the well as they dared go in face of the crowd. When the drillers came in a terrific explosion, the well beckoned to a tower of flame and the crowd about it turned in panic-streaked flight. In less than a minute after the explosion they were lost to sight, and only the calmed remains Oriental Magic Loadstone This is just too much to to work on in m. s. s. and Carry it with however it fills up.

The island of Trinidad, which is a British colony in the West Indies, has a considerable oil industry. While the pay in the oil fields is better than the miserable pitfalls of 20 cents and a shifting obtainable on the plantations of the island; it is still illiterate in comparison to the pay in other countries, and high. With the oil field, workers in other countries unable to make both ends meet with their comparatively higher pay, one can easily imagine the plight of the Trinidad oil field workers. But because the pay is higher than in all other industries in the island, employment in the oil fields is much sought after. Negro and Indian workers—and there are thousands of African workers—are ployed as laborers in the fields, few of them getting into the many elaborate office establishments of the big oil companies, and then only as petty STRAIGHT BLACK HAIR YOURS IN 30 MINUTES Men and Women No matter what the nose—or how many red nose—or how many red shows—no matter how lots of this marvelous nose you beautiful, just you beautiful, just you preparation in a metre stretcher it is a com- binate that parachute that parachute No matter what the occasion or what the skill how—now how many red shirts shows—no matter how sinky it is—one applies to the top of the crown of new invention will give straight black hair.
