On With the Fight! (Written by Marcus Garvey, March 24, 1923.) Gradually we are approaching the time when the Negro peoples of the world will have either to consciously, through their own organization, go forward to the point of destiny as laid out by themselves, or must sit quiescently and see themselves pushed back into the mire of economic serfdom, to be ultimately crushed by the grinding mill of exploitation and be exterminated ultimately by the strong hand of prejudice. redemption of Africa, a complete emancipation of the race. Fighting for the establishment of Palestine does not make the American Jew disloyal; fighting for the independence of Ireland does not make the Irish-American a bad citizen. Why should fighting for the freedom of Africa make the Afro-American disloyal or a bad citizen? The Universal Negro Improvement Association teaches loyalty to all governments outside of Africa; but when it comes to Africa, we feel that the Negro has absolutely no obligation to anyone but himself. There is no doubt about it that we are living in the age of world reorganization out of which will come a set program for the organized races of mankind that will admit of no sympathy in human affairs, in that we are planning for the great gigantic struggle of the survival of the fittest group. Out of the unsettled state and condition of the world will come such revolutions that will give each and every race that is oppressed the opportunity to march forward. The last world war brought the opportunity to many heretofore subject races to regain their freedom. The next world war will give Africa the opportunity for which we are preparing. We are going to have wars and rumors of wars. In another twenty or thirty years we will have a changed world, politically, and Africa will not be one of the most backward nations, but Africa shall be, I feel sure, one of the greatest commonwealths that will once more hold up the torchlight of civilization and bestow the blessings of freedom, liberty and democracy upon all mankind. To fight for African redemption does not mean that we must give up our domestic fights for political justice and industrial rights. It does not mean that we must become disloyal to any government or to any country wherein we were born. Each and every race outside of its domestic national loyalty has a loyalty to itself; therefore, it is foolish for the Negro to talk about not being interested in his own racial, political, social and industrial destiny. We can be as loyal American citizens or British subjects as the Irishman or the Jew, and yet fight for the BERLIN, June 23.—The conference of the Executive Committee of the League against Imperialism, which took place a few days ago in Cologne, has justly earned the attention and interest of public opinion and of the press. The executive conference in Cologne was one of the most important conferences since the inaugural congress of the League in Brussels. The Brussels congress, which took place in 1927, was attended by delegates from the national-revolutionary parties and movements, by a strong group of left-wing intellectuals and by the representatives of a fair number of working class organizations. Today, the League against Imperialism and for National Independence has a large following of proletarian organiza- The opening of the Executive Committee session of the League against Imperialism in Cologne was preceded by a characteristic incident. The Chairman of the Independent Labour Party of Great Britain, Maxton, the communist member of Parliament Eskintyml, and the Secretary of the British section of the League against Imperialism, Bridgeman, were arrested in Ostend on their way to the executive session of the League in Cologne. Only very enevgetic intervention on their party with both the British and Belgian governments succeeded in securing their release and permission for them to continue their journey to Cologne. The Belgian authorities gave as the formal reason for the arrest the fact that when the executive session of the League was planned to take place in Brussels, the Belgian authorities refused permission for the delegates to enter Belgium. In this opening speech at the executive session Muenzenhoven, the Secretary of the League, expressed the indication of those present at the murder of the leader of the anti-imperialist movement in the Latin-American countries, Antonio Mella, who was a member of the General Council of the League and at the same time the leader of the Mexican Peasant Union, by mercy assassine of the Cuban government. Protest Murder of Mella The Executive Committee of the League against Imperialism being impressed, learns with indignation of the cowardly murder of Julio Antonio Mella, a member of the General Council and co-founder of the American League against Imperialism, by paid arrests of the government of Cuba. Numerous members of the General Council of the League have fought since the bitter conflicts of the League in Brussels, with all their energy for the anti-imperialist movement. Many have suffered imprisonment and torture, and the murder of Meta represents a new and terrible loss. In 1927 Meta was present at the Brussels inauguration of the league as the representative of the Moldovan Peasants' Union; he was elected a member of the General Council of the League and upon his return to building up a strong section of the league there. Situation in Latin-America Professor Altona Gildschmidt, a member of the General Council of the League, then reported upon the situation in Latin-America and the strength of the anti-imperialist movement there. In his report Professor Goldschmidt gave a statistical review of the penetration of Latin-America by Oll Metaxas and the capital of the United States, great Britain, declared Professor Goldschmidt, had already, been driven into the defensive in Latin-America. The conflict between Bolivia and Paraguay had only taken place as a result of the antagonism existing between the United States and Great Britain, and this antagonism would inevitably lead to a conflict between American and anti-imperialist movement growing and embracing larger and larger sections of the population. In Mexico, for instance, the league already had 33 sections, and trade union, peas- Thin Folks!

The anti-imperialist forces, however, lacked co-ordination and it would be necessary to unite them and to join them up with the world movement against imperialism. Trade Unions and the League Trade Unions and the League The most important point on the agenda of the conference was the question of the relations between the trade unions and the league. The composition of the conference alone showed clearly that the league had strengthened its relations to the musses of the working class very considerably. Nees than nine men and women prominent in the trades union movement, including A. J. Cook, the secretary of the Military Federation of Great Britain; S. O. Davies, the vice-chairman of the M. F. G. B.; Harry Jollt, the leader of the British Minority Movement, and Apx Gossin, the secretary of the National Amalgamated Furnishing Trades Association (Nafn). Two representatives of the Committee for Trade Union Unity were present from Sweden. Others present were: Bismarcker, the president of the Basel Trade Union Cartel; Herclet, from the Unitarian Trades Union Federation (CGTJ) of France; Hul Fel, the representative of the Chinese Trades Union Federation; Ford, from the American. Negro Workers Congress; Hamiel of Hussein, the leader of the National Amalgamated Furnishing Revolutionary movement, and Feltz Hekzert, from the Red International of Labour Unions. The Central Council of Soviet Labour Unions had sent Polichunsky, Figurer and Josefovich in its delegates. Other trade union and labor organizations had sent letters of greetings to the confidence, including the Peasant Union, of the Philippines, the Finnish Trade Union Federation, etc. During the session a message arrived from the All-Indian Trade Union, the Chinese Trade Union, and the Italian affiliate collectively to the league. Today the Soviet Labour Unions, the All-Indian Trade Union Congress, the Chinese Trade Union Federation, the British Natta and over 50 other various trades union organizations are "alliated collectively to the league against imperialism which has thus considerably increased its influence amongst its affiliates and formed a strong basis for its carrying out of its international tasks." For the first time since the existence of the league, representatives of the workers of the Soviet Union were present at a league conference. The conference recorded its appreciation of this fact by, unanimously adopting a declaration pointing out to all the friends, that the danger of war was growing and appealing to them to prevent war against the Soviet Union with all the means at their disposal. Despite certain differences of opinion which showed themselves in the trade union question the conference was unanimously in favor of a preemptive strike, and declared its intention, of fighting with all the forces at its disposal against imperialist war. Intrigue in Afghanistan This fighting spirit was expressed clearly in the report of Sakakata concerning the last phase of the Indian struggle for independence and concerning the 'rejectionary insurrection in Afghanistan'. In its resolution upon the subject the conference pointed out that the reactionary movement in Afghanistan was the result of British intrigues directed towards destroying the friendly relations between Afghanistan and the Soviet Union, strengthening the influence of British imperialism in the east, and drawing Afghanistan into the imperialist united front against the Soviet union. Urban League Celebrates Its 18th Anniversary The National Urban League and 42 local branches celebrate another birthday with the 18th annual meeting held February 13 in the league offices in New York City. Eugene Kinchick Jones, who has guided the destiny of the organization for the past 18 years, outlined in his annual report the outstanding achievements of this great social movement for better urban conditions for the Negro population. Every year for his appraisal of the trends in the economy and social status of the Negro slaves, the Jones chapter and the membership of the Negro potentialists to investigate.

LONDON, Feb 13, 1972 *Ensive* *Lawrence of Arabia*, famous war adventurer, was used by the British Government on the Afghan frontier to stir up trouble against Amanullah, is the opinion of Col. Cecil Lostrange Malone, Labor-member of Parliament for Northampton, after he interviewed Lawrence, now known as Aircraftman Shaw, in the House of Commons. In a signed statement for the "World, Malone says that Lawrence's visit to Parliament was "to see Ernest Thurtle, who had been questioning him about his position, and assure Thurtle of the completely innocent nature of his activities as an air mechanic on the northwest frontier. "He appears to show a tendency to swallow this," Malone continues, in his statement. "I was able to identify Lawrence during the war. I saw him actually at work and am therefore perhaps a little better able to judge him." This is Malone's verdict after his own discussion with Lawrence. "The mind of Lawrence, who has crowned Kings in Arabia, and upset the Khaliphate, was always beneath the air force cap, and can anybody really believe that the government, and especially the India office, would innocently have taken the inconceivably foolish step of posting him to the vital station on the northwest frontier at Mirahansah for the sole purpose of polishing his buttons there instead of somewhere else? "Lawrence does not travel incognito. He is always welcomed by air chiefs and Commanders in Chief office, and no excuse of sending him to the ordinary routine by mistake or by the ordinary routine prepared to accept assurances which Lawrence gave us that he had not been in Afghanistan himself, but 'in my opinion there is little doubt that he was drafted to these quarters to assist in the policy of creating difficulties for Amanulah. "After all, was it not from Pashawar that the rebel Bacha Saquo originated well equipped with arms and money to overthrow King Amanullah? Is it not from Lahore that the Mullahs working in his interests would convey propaganda through the passes to Kabul? "We can awallow a good deal," Malone concludes, "but it is asking too much to really think that a man of intelligence and ability and with twenty years' experience of special work among Arabs and somi-Oriental peoples would choose Peshawar because the climate is particularly good for polishing beads." Alien Deportation Bill Is Passed by Congress WASHINGTON, Feb. 16—Silver by the crime wave, wholesale violation of the prohibition laws and such gang killings as the massacre this week of seven in Chicago, the House today passed a drastic bill to deport allons who break the laws. Allons who carry concealed weapons or bombs and violate the narcotic and prohibition laws will be summarily shipped out of the country under the bill. Wells savagely attacked the prohibition laws as the major cause of the crime wave, but most of them marched side by side with the drills in adopting provisions to rid the country of allon law breakers. The bill authorizes the Secretary of Labor to report any alien sentenced to at least one year for one or more violations of the prohibition laws. Alming at allon gun-towers and bomb-carriers, another provision for deportation of allons convicted and sentenced to at least six months for such offenses was adopted. Allons twice convicted would be deported, regardless of the sentence imposed. The measure also stipulated that an alien sentenced for a year for violating the law may be sentenced to a subsequent sentence for one year or more, shall be denoted. Medical School for Negroes Will Build $2,000,000 Plant NASHVILLE, Teinn. Feb. 17.—A new $2,000,000 model medical school for the training of Negro physicians, to be built here with gifts from the General Education Board of New York and the Julius Rosenwald Fund of Chicago, was announced tonight by Dr. J. J. Mulloney, president of the Mehary Medical College. A part of the project, to which alumni will contribute $200,000, will be a 128-bed hospital. There will be facilities for 200 students and departments of dentistry and pharmacy. The bridge. Herrens said today, would be talk on subway but would be closed soon. Another would be maintained by we would be to bring the fleet to the subway, while the other, by means of strong cables, would tend to draw them to the bottom. Parts of the bridge, he said, could be covered to prevent damage by the weather. INDIAN-NEGRO MERGING CITED BY HISTORIAN Both Races, Enslaved, Intermarried, Freely, Their Love Based on Hatred of Whites (WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Indian has not disappeared from the land, but is now a part of the Negro population of the State. Thus writes J. H. Johnston in a 23-page printed document contributed to the January issue of The Journal of Negro History, made public this week. The treatise entitled "Documentary Evidence of the Relations of Negroes and Indians" proves that the American Indian did not die out as a result of disease or civilization, but that he lost his racial identity by frequent intermarriage with the more numerous Negro race. Quoting from old documents, Mr. Johnston said: "From the early colonial times until the end of the slave period, there was much in the mood of the Negro and the Indian. Neither the law nor social barriers forbade the intermixture of these two races; both shared the antipathies of the white man and, when held as slaves, treatment differed in no essential degree. "Condition of life, slave and free, often led to the union of the Indian and the Negro and the final extinction of Indian slavery was, in part due to the absorbing of the Indian by the more numerous Negroes. "Proof of unity developed between these two races is seen in the fact that in certain Indian massacres the Indians murdered every white man and spared the Negro. The reports of the Massachusetts Indiana: "Very few of them are of unimixed blood, and the blood is mixed more frequently with Negroes than with whites." Rhode Island A report to the Secretary, of War in 1822 said of Rhode Island that there were 429 Indians there, but nearly all of them mixed in blood and color with Negroes in various degrees and shades. New York An early report to the St. Louis legislature in New York declares: "During the time the Negroes were hated in New York, the Negroes largely intermarried with them and the descendants have more of the Negro blood than of the Indian in their veins, and are, in fact, only Indian in name." New Jersey An early history of New Jersey is quoted as saying that the union between Indians and Negroes was commonly so frequent as to have left permanent impressions upon the features of families of Negroes of the presentday. In Virginia In Virginia, as early as 1784, whites sought to get possession of certain land set aside for *Indians* on the grounda that the Indian blood was so largely mingled with that of the Negro race as to obliterate all striking features of Indian extinction. In 1800 Thomas Jefferson said of the Pamunkey Indians of Virginia: "There are three or four men only, and they have more Negro than Indian blood in them." Commissioners in charge of the first census of the Creeks in 1832 made the following rulings: "An Indian, whether full or half blood, who has a female alive with him, is a wife of the head" family and entitled to a reservation, also free blacks who have been admitted members of the Creek nation, and are recognized as such by the tribe." This Seminoles The Seminoles of Florida are another tribe whose blood mingled freely with that of the Negro. Johnnson says he believed that the Seminole wars were not so much Indian wars as Negro wars. In many cases instigators were Negroes and the strategy was Negro strategy. General Jesup reported to the Secretary of Wgr in 1837: "I have ascertained that at the battle of Wahoo a Negro was one of the most distinguished leaders, and attacks upon white plantations were made by Negroes headed by an Indian-Negro, John Causek." The Chestnut Tree census of 1884 has records which send as follows: *Jacob O'Donnell, a nineteen, half living and half dead.* Five parishes are in his family. *Virginia, a nineteen, Indian, native, and native of Virginia, three, four, and five parishes.* *Maryland, a nineteen, Indian, native, half living and half dead.* Two are in his family. *Maryland, a nineteen, Indian, native, half living and half dead.* Two are in his family. BERLIN, Feb. 15—The Local Ansergee prints today around declarations concerning an alleged slave trade still flourishing in Africa, which the British authorities are said to be unable to suppress. "We were discussing the accomplishments of the League of Nation," the newspaper's correspondent writes, "and I mentioned that the League at least had succeeded in abolishing the slave trade, whereupon my informant [the] correspondent withholds the name] exclaimed: "What? Abolished the slave trade! Why, at this very moment 5,000 women, women and children are marching through a desert, bent under the weight of iron chains, to be sold at public auction." "Where is that?" "Near the Red Sea," was the answer. "The man who spoke was an officer of the British Navy stationed on the North African coast, or I should not have reported his assertions." "Every man in the British fleet knows that and can confirm this statement," continued the officer. "There are regular slave markets in Arabia at Midi, El Birko and Talf, where week after week thousands, of natives of the Sudan are sold into slavery. All of the Sudanese are British subjects." This trade, today is monopolized by powerful Alabysian families who regard it as their hereditary privilege. As in threes past, these traders send armed expeditions, sometimes of 100 and more men, out to capture their goods, which are then shipped across the Red Sea and landed in Southern Arabia. No British warship can risk following them into the shallows, especially at night. "The slave trade is excellently organized, like the illicit liquor trade in America. Its spies are distributed all over the Sudan, Italian Eritrea and other lands, and all of the captives where white men are solden seen. Sometimes the population of a whole village is captured and led away in chains by armed hordes of slave traders. "Tadjura is in French territory, but the French authority is represented by only a few askaris, to whom any interference with the slave traders would mean death. In Somaliland the slave traders do as they like, be the "French authority does not extend beyond Djibouti." "In some countries parents, in order to obtain means of travel to Sifcae or morley to enrich themselves, sell their children voluntarily to the slave traders." "Some warlike black tribes demand tribute from the slave traders, which generally is the slave trader. Good male shaves bring about $400 each, while $150 to $200 is paid for working women and $100 for children." Crispus Attucks Day March 5, to Signalize Protest to President Crispus Attucks Day March 5, to Signalize Protest to President WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 18, 1929. Utilization of the d.c. quadennial coincidence, which occurs this year, of succeeding days for presidential inauguration and the anniversary of a colored proto-martyr of American Independence, is especially urged upon the race by the executive committee of the National Equal Rights League. The congress meeting here on Douglas R. Brown, Jr., Church, Rev. W. H. Jernagin, president, in the chair. The league strongly argues it to be wise for colored Americans to establish March 5, anniversary of the death of Crispus Attacks on Boston streets resisting British soldiers of occupations, shedding the first blood in the struggle which led to the now. Republic, as "Citizenship Foundation Day." Its observance annually would be a bridge in the struggle using a bond of rights for the blood on which the country was founded, which produced the first martyr. This and other inauguration years the league advises that Attucks celebrations he signalized by passage of resolutions to be sent to the newly installed president asking for full rights by abolition of segregation in the executive departments and a congressional law for lynchings, thus notifying him as he begins his term that we insist upon redress of our wrongs. LOADSTONE DRAWING PUMPERS NEW DELHI, India, Feb. 13. Forty ruling princes, who have been consulting over the recent trend toward political extremism in British India, dramatically revealed their conclusions in the Chamber of Princes today. They unanimously affirmed that they could not assent to any proposals for the adjustment of equitable relations between the Indian States and British India unless such proposals proceed upon the initial basis of British connection. BRITISH PEARL, GRAB FEARED BY PERSIA BRITISH PEARL, GRAB FEARED BY PERSIA GENEVA. Feb. 19. — Some of the world's richest pearl beds in the Persian Gulf and possible valuable undeveloped oil fields are the prizes which British interests are accused of attempting to acquire by diplomatic maneuvering. The accusation is contained in a note from Persia to the League of Nations just received here. Persia's protest is against Great Britain's recognition of Bahrain Island, in the Persian Gulf, as belonging to the Hedjaz, which the British dominate. Teheran's third protest to the League on the situation is now being disputed to be a question nation, and probably will raise a question similar to that brought up by the notorious Italo-British attempt to apportion the Abyssinian Lake Tqad waterheds and exploitation rights among themselves. Coming on the heels of the conversey-over the Tanganjika territory mandate in Africa, which, through adoption of the report of Hilton Young's commission would be brought under the jurisdiction of the tempted domination of valuable Persian Gulf territory has aroused apprehension in Genova. Latin Characters Vogue Now Agitating Palestine JERUSALEM, Jan. 21.—The growing tendency to introduce Latin type forms in place of the traditional characters still in use for some of the ancient languages is beginning to make itself felt in the movement for the awakening of Hebrew as a living tongue, and the introduction of information the first two numbers of "Ha Shayyuah ha Palestinif," a Hebrew periodical published as a supplement to the English "Palestine Weekly" review, have just appeared in Latin characters. The publication is edited by Hammam ben Avl, son of Elleser by Ben Jehudah, founder of the first family to speak the modern Hebrew in Palestine, and the man to whom credit is due for the success of the country at the medium of intercourse in the everyday life of the repatriated section of his people. Ittamar, ben Avi is the founder of the "Jerusalem Door Hayom", the first Hebrew daily to be printed in Palestine after the war, and editorship of which he recently relinquished to Vladimin Jabotinsky. The latter is the founder of the Jewish Legion, which participated in the World War, and was one of the best known Russian journalists of the Bolshevik era. On the staff of "Ruskaya Wledomati" at Moscow, the leading democratic organ of Russia, up to the time of the Communist Revolution. Even before the war Jabotinsky advocated the substitution of Latin forms for the ancient Assyrian quadrangular letters. The argument put forward by him and his friends in favor of the reform is that the greatest impediment to wider knowledge of Hebrew among Jews and non-Jews is its difficult and unfamiliar script, which, without vowels, makes reading more or less a challenge. More work is needed in the movement will prevail. The Latin alphabet has no equivalent characters for some of the sounds of the Hebrew tongue, and therefore would have to be supplemented. Moreover, the pronunciations both of vowels, and consonants varies to some extent even among the Jews themselves, according to the countries from which they hall, and so far there has been no recognized authority to enforce a uniform system of transliteration and pronunciation. Up to the present the affirm made but little headway. The great mass of the people not only is averse to it, but it is viewed with disfavor by the majority of men of letters, who regard it almost in the light of an anti-nationalist assimilation by a foreign culture. Most people look upon the experiment in a detached sort of way as something out of the ordinary. Japan Bars English Signs on Railroad The Maharajah of Patiala said the advocacy of independence by section of British Indian politicians would be a matter of difference to the Princes, if they had no desire for ultimate Federal relations with British India or no treaty obligations to the British Crown: "Quite apart," he said, "from our conviction that the inclusion of India within the British Commonwealth is vitally necessary to our country's well being, we feel that the suggestion of independence conveys a menace to the discharge of these reciprocal rights and obligations which are the foundation of our relations with the British Crown." The Maharajah of Kashmir protested that the loyalty of the Indian princes was not a mere figure of speech and as a ruler of a State and guarding hundreds of miles of frontier, he felt "a special responsibility." The general purport of the majority of the speeches, which the princes read from typewritten pages, was that the Indian States, due to their extent and population, had a right to a voice in determining the future of India and that on the grounds of personal loyalty to the King of their treaty engagements with the British Crown, and of practical statemanship, they would have no part nor lot in wild political theories which the Maharajah of Alwar said, aimed at Indian independence, through the severance of British connection as recently proclaimed by the British Indian political extremists. The Maharajah of Bikkanar said their speech implied no hostility to British Indianism he said, "unfinitingly and Broadly, immovable, regardless of all sacrifices, for the maintenance-of-British connection." The Viceroy, Lord Irwin, who presided before the resolution was presented, said it was the most important which the Chamber ever discussed, and his opinion doubtless expressed the feeling of the whole princely order. CHINA MAKES DEBT PLANS SHANGHAI, Feb. 10.—Plans for the Liquidation of China's domestic and foreign debts were announced today by the Nationalist Government. It was stated that a committee had been formed composed of T. V. Soon, the finance minister; C. T. Wang, the foreign minister, and Wang Toh-chun, minister of communications, with several foreign experts, to arrange this declaration. The Foreign Ministry also announced that it had notified the various governments of the intention of the Nationalist Government to repay foreign debts within twenty years after the declaration of tariff autonomy. NEW SUGAR IS DISCOVERED BY GOVERNMENT SCIENTISTS WASHINGTON. Feb. 15.—A new sugar has been discovered by scientists of the Bureau of Standards of the Department of Commerce who have been experimenting on inulin, a starch-like substance found in dahlia, chicory, artichokes and other plants. The new product is called "difructose amyridide." "By treatment with acid, inulin is changed to the very sweet sugar, fructose in glucose, and Secretary Whitney today, said he had never, however, that not more than 82 percent of the expected amount of fructose was obtained and a study of the remaining 8 percent revealed the presence of a new sugar, which was composed of two molecules of fructose, combined in such close union that the acid was unable to convert it to fructose." i CUP ee EL ee es EE eS EAC oe Ge em err EMIS?

A.; ten cents in foreign countries. Advertising Representatives, W. B. Ziff Co., Transportation Bldg., Chicago, IL 551 Fifth Avenue, New York City 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. To the Editor of The Negro World: No living man since the downfall of Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany has been the victim of more unfavorable newspaper comment, abuse, vilification and ridicule than Marcus Garvey. Not being a result of French and Belgian newspapers I have no retrospect of being the Anglo-Saxon, of the Anglo-Americans who lay claim to being the intellectuals of their race in this country, enough has been written to all volumes. "THE EAST TUCKS IN ITS SHIRT" Somebody with insight and a sense of humor once remarked that the Filipino is easy to get on with, till he hucks in his shirt; but that thereafter he becomes a problem, growing more acute as he displays further signs of westernization. A sack mutil and a smattering of English soon almost always to breed a violent duel of white men and angry demands for instant independence. Trouble brews, kept down only by the patent fact of America's overwhelming strength. Yet the problem remains, and the future is darkly uncertain. Q.MR. LOTHROP STODDARD informs us in a recent article on the gradual awakening of Oriental peoples. And Mr. Stoddard adds, "The entire East is today 'tucking in its shirt' * * * This may not be pleasant news to persons engrossed with peace pacts and good business-forecasts. But it is the truth, and it ought to be intelligently faced." Mr. Garvey has been called by every name, with accompanying adjectives, that could be permitted to appear in print, and an unquestionable proof of the man's indomitable courage and will can be found, not in the many obstacles that have been thrown in his path, not in the innumerable lawsuits he has combated, or the insulting taunts to which he has been for three years subjected in a "Cracker" prison, but in his militant survival of the concentrated attacks upon his intelligence, his sincerity, his honesty, and his sanity. This is not news to those who are following the trend of daily events and reading aright the signs of the times. It is encouraging to the darker peoples of the world because some day these people are going to pool their knowledge and power as the white races have done. What will happen then, we cannot even guess; but the white peoples of the earth are finding it sufficiently interesting to discuss it morning, noon and night, and from every possible angle. We, who may be inclined to minimize or forget this gradual awakening of the darker peoples from their slumber of centuries, are being constantly reminded by the uneasiness of the white races who fully realize the importance and significance of the awakening, and the enormous strength of this dark giant who can crush all opposition if he ever realizes his strength and goes forth to conquer. The downfall of no great leader has been so ardently wished for, or prematurely announced since Napoleon. Sometimes the announcement comes from the editorial columns of the New York "Times" with an assurance and finally most gratifying to Mr. Garysey's enemies. At other times the announcement comes through the columns of the "Herald," as a result of an insultation by a drunken London Cockney on the onomatopoeia of the old Albert Hall. And at still other times, it is broadcast through the liberal New York "World" that the imaginary empire of a bombastic potentate has crumbled forever because of the heckling of some African students: Mr. StoddaPd discusses at length the progress of some of the people of the Orient—Japan, China, Turkey, Arabia, Persia, Northern Africa and Afghanistan. He touches upon the possibilities of India and Africa, with an area covering more than "half the entire land surface of the globe," and with more than a billion inhabitants—all members of the dark races, hitherto despised and ridiculed because of their backwardness and servility. Negroes who have the normal acquisitive instinct which ought to be fostered and developed by their contacts with the highly developed white civilization in which they live, must blush with shame for members of the race who have not heard and answered the clarion call of African nationalism. I have quoted these journals by virtue of the power they wield as news-distributing agencies in this and many other large cities of the country, and to hear out my confession in a previous article in these columns, that the activities of the all-embracing Garveyism always fun counter to the wiliness and prophecies of the high priests and popees of journalism. For this, Negroes who seek a wider world-freedom and nationality of their own, should be supremely grateful. It shows an independence of racial group movement hitherto unknown and untried, a tearing away from the questionable guidance to_which we have submitted for so long, and which the very instincta of self-preservation project. After all these years of unbridled oppression, of pressure, and hysteria in the county of high rents and doubtful liberty in the North, for which a civilized government has shown no little concern, we learn that the Post Office authorities are now beating themselves to protect the interests of the beloved Negro citizenry of this republic. Keen interest should be by means of the Negroes in the activities of the Post Office department. If, through dislike of Mr. Garvey of his organization, such elaborate efforts are to be made, as news The Universal Negro Improvement Association is the pioneer organization among Negroes preaching nationalism for black people. One of the chief handicaps which the Association has had to meet and overcome has been the firm belief of thousands of black men that Utopia lies in becoming an integral part of the white race instead of working out our own destiny as a group and demanding of the world the recognition and respect due us as a successful and established race and nation. The peculiar outlook of the Western Negro, engendered by his practically recent condition of servitude and encouraged by the white man so that the latter may retain his iron grip of domination and oppression, is puzzling to the other darker peoples of the world who see very clearly the nationalistic possibilities which lie before black people in Africa if they will but stick together, and keep their objective, constantly before them. It is hard to understand a race that does not long for and fight for the nationhood which carries with it social, economic and political prestige and banishes oppression, discrimination and racial scorn. B are sure you "principles" are not prejudices when quoted on things you have not thought out, but are怒怒 to condemn—National Baptist Voice. Negroes have a great task, a long road before them. The journey to racial independence has but begun. Negroes in America, the West Indies, Africa, everywhere, are just beginning to learn that they all have the same fundamental longing. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is a common medium through which they may work in the various ways at hand to gain the final glorious objective—African Nationhood. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is more than ten years old. Through a decade it has preached its gospel. Great have been its disappointments; its failures, splendid; its victories, vital and glorious. Through it all the goal continues to shine, bright and alluring, a haven of racial heat and contentment—Nationhood. It is hard to believe that any Negro can continue to read the interesting and inspiring accounts of the daily doings of those members of the darker races who are fighting with guns and pens, falling by the way at times, but always, always, rising and staggering on, without being inspired. It is easy to take the line of least resistance and decide forever to remain a racial parasite, but to do so only depends on the day, which must come, when Africa shall be free. The Universal Negro and the West Indian Negro "inclined in their minds more than a half-century ago. The African Negro today is entering a final decline to co-operate with his Western brother. Let us endeavor to work on the grave problem that confronts the world. They must continue, after all, lies with us. Educate, practically for the things your hands find to do, and signify the field you are engaged in, be it ever so humble, by the character of your service, and do not expect the work to decorate you. You must decorate the job by superior service and accurate production—Atlanta Independent. There is no hope for the man who is satisfied with the achievements of the past—Star of Zion. Every gain in society comes after struggle. The high places now accorded womanhood, which we wish our women to share, has been grazed only after centuries of struggle. We can afford to talk bitterly not to talk in disappointment because we fall once—Kansas City Call. After all it does not matter so much how one has to get an education. It is obtaining the knowledge and deep understanding that counts. The great work of it that there are so many people who are not interested in the field and are determined to do all their work and are better educated than they are made up of and are better educated than they are made up of. reports-indicate, to see that our earnings are not thrown wight, in this drive for nationhood and freedom, then, out of an apparent evil, great good will accrue to the race, and fifteen million souls will shout their benedictions to high heaven, and lynchings, segregation and peonage may forthwith vainish in the din of the universal shout, therefore the heartaches and the trouble of sending those periodic telegraphs to southern governors. Maintain that life is of more value than money. I mean the little that Negroes do get; and our financial investments should be of less concern to those sincere and well-meaning officials than the lives of the unfortunate of our race who fall victims of mob violence, especially when it is remembered that we exercise our own independent right and judgment in investing 'our earnings as we think fit.' A very, important issue is now at stake and we should begin to think constructively. There is a fact that is often overlooked by both white and black critics of Mr. Garvey; They are always ready, to shed tears and squeal over the money that the organization has wasted, but they seem to forget that from all parts of the world we were drafted, or invited in in the last "Great War to End Wars," a war in the making of which none of us participated as members of the respective Allied movements. We lost what was more than made our own lives; it is the world made any safer for democracy or for us? Read the speeches of the past weeks in Congress or Parliament, listen to the ravings of "cruiser-senators" seminars over, the different naval programs, and we will realize that in the very near future we may again be called to fight for the freedom of small nationalities while 400 millions of us will be still nationless and kicked about, helpless victims of unreasonable world-wide prejudice and unfounded hate. By this it should be fully realized by all who are disposed to tamper with the future and liberties of a large race group us we are; we who are determined to earn the gratitude of our children yet unborn, that neither abuse, imprisonment, nor deportation, nor even unforeseen persecutions can impair the faith of millions of us the world over in our matchless leader, Garvey. If we stood, doubtful at the crossroads, questioning ourselves as to whether we were men, he has shown us by his courage, by his fearlessness, by his spirit of self-sacrifice, the way to go forward in the face of combined and studied opposition, how to replace a feeling of fatalistic submission to the arrogance of an oppressive caste, by a sense of manly pride in the latent and potential virtues of a race which has not been sufficiently conscious of its power, and which, having been shown it, is prepared to go ever onward until a reluctant and heartless world will be compelled by the logic of circumstances to admit us among the family of great nations. So long as you can put out a new output and get, absorbed in it, you are young. And if you can do something that you could not have done as well in earlier years, you are growing old wisely. Mental fitness for middle-aged men is an important to the rest of the world as it is to them; for they are the men on whose hands and shoulders the responsible work of the world falls most heavily—California Eagle. The most miserable, hapless person in all the world is the unbeliever—the unbeliever in everything that is worth while. The fellow who does not believe in man or woman, who frowns at ideals or fitness, who mocks at faith, who scorns love as a weakness, and who worships at the shrine of self. He goes his nigh-tight, way, matching at gains and discovering that they are only dressed when he finds them in his hand—California Eagle. Practically every Negro high school student who goes back his library today is in highly economical of course, with the library more than all the other schools, the library more than any other institution teaching in the manner of the most of the schools we read in real life as we go to school and in our own lives, and he teaches the library what we do in our own lives. The printer was a machine that printed letters from the printer to the printer. Arthor, according to their manual passed to departments devoted to another printer, printed letters from the printer to the printer. The time window were received and the time window passed to "expression" in the hands of the printer much start work had to be done. The news might be old or librarian or uninteresting, it had to be examined, formulated and arranged, some part of the staff must think of the policy of the journal and make provision for future issues. The organization in the human brain was apparently of a similar kind. Sir Arthur said that the remarkable thing in the course of the evolution of the animal brain was that it was not the staffs which handled the messages and which saw to the printing of the news that had increased; the changes which had come about concerned the "editorial staff." AN AUTHOR ABROAD DISCUSSES HARLEM (From the Manchester Guardian Weekly) Mr. Carl von Vechten, the author of "Nigger Heaven," made some interesting comments, on the position of the Negro in the United States when I saw him during the week-end. He believes firmly that' the present Negro 'fashion' in New York is only the prelude to a great age of Negro art in America. Within fifty years Negro art and literature will be something with which the world will have to reckon. At present, in his view, no Negro author or artist had produced anything that was considered' first-rate in America, although several writers had approached very nearly to that. I asked him about the position of the Negro in New York. "It is difficult to talk about anything that is so large," he said. "You must reconsider." His burden, Negro quartets, hit the market. Manchego Negro society is very self-contained, very anoblish and reserved. I lived myself three years in Harlem before I wrote 'Nigger Heaven,' and I found it extremely difficult to break into Negro society. They have an elaborate caste system, and within those limits they are contented. "At the present time, however, in New York there is a great interest in Negro art, and. Negro writers and artists are welcomed in society. Their rehabilitation has come through the arts. Ten years ago it was very difficult-for any Negro to get anything published; today in New York it is easier to get anything published if you are a Negro than if you are white. In certain States Negroes, although allowed by federal law to vote, are disfranchised by State law. It is illegal for Negroes to contract mixed marriages, and education is delicately avoided, especially in those States where the Negro population outnumbers the white." Cuba Bans Beating of African Bongo Drum HAVANA—The Cuban Government has prohibited the beating of the African "bongo drum." The restriction carries heavy penalties on the ground that the monotonous roverberations induce a state of savagery in ignorant Islenders and a state of irritation in others. To those who have studied the history of Africa the bongo drum is well known as the wireless system of African tribes, and beats from these drums, sometimes 25 miles apart, send messages throughout the densest jungles. To those who have studied voodooism the bongo drum is likewise known, for it is used to incite dancers to a dangerous state of savagery. The drum is of large sizes. Sometimes the top-hat-bom log hollow, with the top covered by a specially treated skin. Two knobheaded sticks are used in playing it. Sounds from the bongo drum are almost impossible to locate. Cuban police describe instances where they have stood within 100 yards of a drum which was not located until after hours of search. Its throbbing beats may be heard for miles although the sound is never deafening, even at close range. Just what effect the drum has is not known other than that it causes some to lose their sense of balance and creates, of those wildly dancing, dangerous maniacs. The bongo is not to be confused with the tomtom, which is still heard in Cuban orchestras. HOMELY PHILOSOPHY How often does a two-count stamp stand between us and a good not done. Perhaps it is a word of expression, an sympathy, of praise or just a line of encouragement, of thanks or remembrance—these notes simple invites, some times because of a previous length. The names may build in the old and new of life, phrases, or expressions to be held long past of spontaneity or circumstance, or immensely proud glory already past—but how many times in death or disbelief might this happen, one failure in any of these dreams? Even though, I suppose, Man's is a world of Freedom hold in chains By Trade, the size of Mammoth and Oppression, And Commerce of Dasein, whose crushed guts But four attaining Law's direct aggression, And satisfy Religion's earthly greed, Whilst Labour languished in very need. —Kobina Sekyl. Alexandria was founded in 323 B. C. as a commercial and military center. Under Alexander's successor, Ptolemy Philadelphia, it became also the greatest library center of the ancient world when, about 250 B. C. he brought about the transference of literary activity from Athena to Alexandria by his sudden patronage of literature and the introduction of argument, of the Alexandrian library. Ptolemy's patronage at once brought many of the best writers and copyists to his library, where they began what soon came to be the recognized standard editions of the great writers. From these so-called "Alexandrian editions" have descended most of the ancient manuscripts now preserved in our famous libraries. Ptolemy obtained the tragedies of the Greek writers, Alexandrian Sophocles and Aristophanes, in a way which will show how eager, even how ruthless he was in obtaining what he wanted. There was a famine in Athens. Ptolemy refused to let the Athensians have any of the food he could distribute unless the editions he wanted were sent to him. Of course he got them. He sent the Athenians the grain they needed, and also paid them fifteen talents in silver (about $18,000). However, he did not send back the originals of the tragedies, but authenticated copies instead. In isale he sold the works of Neleus of Aristophanes. Among the translations which Ptolemy had made for his new library were the books of laws of the Jews, recommended to him by his librarian, Demetrius of Ethelum. The West of Africa has always been made the blight of those who are not natives nor residents in Africa on the ground of insanitation. The imputation has rebounded home. The natives of Africa have never at any time invited England or any other European nation into their country, either to govern them or for trade purposes, so that if the necessity arose that some western power, for expansion purposes, seeks African possessions, it is their duty to make the place sanitary before sending their representatives. So far in West Africa is concerned, although some portions of it had been ceded to Great Britain for unpleasant years, not the slightest chance of an made to possessation of the real estate, and when representatives who were sent out accounted to the climate, responsible ministers of the realm held by their attitude that they had no faith in their British possessions overseas and allowed them to stagnate. These possessions were considered as "the white man's grave" and therefore not worth the trouble of developing. What had happened, since? Great Britain swoke from her stupor and realized that West Africa cannot be neglected with impunity, for experience had shown that it was of importance. Today, we all recognize that we can no more do without the mother country than the mother country without us, and so we become inter-dependent. The Gold Coast Colony has made rapid strides within at least two decades, and all credit is due to the plu- Do natives get justice in Johannesburg. Professor Edgar Brookes raised the question in a lecture to the Society of the Servants of the Kingdom in Johannesburg on Monday evening. A representative of The Rand Daily Mail yesterday asked it of many people. These were among the answers he received: A Solliciter—In the Magistrates' Courts the native gets as fair a trial as a harried and overworked magistrate can possibly give him. He often pleads guilty, however, because he is afraid not guilty even when he is not guilty. Another Solliciter—The native has a better chance of being acquitted if he gets a solicitor to defend him. He cannot generally defend himself properly. But most natives even when actually not guilty, cannot afford a solicitor. Another Solliciter—Natives are indeed brought to court unless they are guilty, and many guilty ones escape because the courts are not satisfied with the evidence against them. Another Solliciter—The native brings natives to court often without jurisdiction, and never fails to be acquitted because the courts are not satisfied with the evidence against them. A Court Orders may be issued This translation is the alleged origin of the work done by seventy rabbis, known to us the Septuagint. Of the many librarians of the Alexandrian library, Callimachus was probably the most notable. In the first place, he changed the type of literary work being done by the scholars at the museum and library, to Under Callimachus' administration a catalogue was prepared which filled 120 volumes. It was this librarian also who coined the famous phrase "a big book is a big nuance," and made the existing volume lighter by dividing works into several rolls, each one being then called a book. It was under Callimachus' new scheme that Homer and Herodotus, among others, were divided into books as we now have them. Callimachus also was the "father" of the ancient collection and the modern ensembles are little more than elaborations of his. The number of volumes in the Alexandrian library was well above 500,000. A great part of it was burned accidentally, during an attack in 47 B. C., made by a street mob on Julius Caesar, who had followed Pompey the Great to Egypt. It is likely that the rost of the library was burned during the invasion of Aurelian in 272 A. D., although there in a widely known tradition, still held by the author, was the name of Omar in 642 A. D., had the volumes distributed among the baths in Alexandria where they were burned in the heating stoves. There seems now to be no evidence that can be adduced to prove that the tradition is reliable. neers and administrators, also to modern science and the prosperity of the country for the progress achieved. The libel should be withdrawn for the Cold Coast is quite safe for anyone to stay in if ordinary health precautions are taken, so far as refreshments and diet is concerned. It is unfair to West Africa that the libel should be perpetuated. Our weather is more reliable than any European 'or American weather' for that matter, and the African has always been treated as a child. Laws are passed to restrain him from doing this and the other, white the white element have had more freedom. The African is not and does not expect to be paid the same rate as a European or any white man, but he is expected to do the dirty work. If he grumbles, he is considered importent and may lose his job. There is a gulf fixed. When snapshots are taken to be sent abroad, the worst African types are selected for views for the delegation of friends, when excursions are made into the interior or "bush" districts. The African seldom receives fair treatment, and is less made to understand that he is a subject race and under the whims and caprices of even a white sailor or ateward on board ship who might happen to get a berth onshore, to reach or be reached to rescue any African employee, however long he may have been in the business. What we say is: we are tired with this libel business, and coupled with the way we are treated, we ask that for once the African might be considered as a human creature and be fairly dealt with. don't. There should be special magistrates for natives; and they should be men who understand at least one native language. Policemen who come from parts of the country where there are plenty of natives bring fewer of them to court when they are stationed in Johannesburg. Policemen who do not know how the native lives at home should not deal with natives in Johannesburg. A *Desk Sergeant*—The magistrates do their best, but they are often misled by appearances. Some policemen should be on duty when they should come from the blind eye. But instructions are instructions. A *Police Officer*—It should be remembered that the *police* and magistrates in Johannesburg are tackling a problem hardly paralleled in the world, and they do their best in the face of great odds. : G 4 t ¢ a . ss RRO ONC RIS OEE Oy Aird EI oF RE as ene Cee See z Pee oi SORES AR RSE ROTEL SER RIES eae ee Ca ape ON LPR I ENTS NNT S O TOON RSI RCT CSET ERT ONS TEE PE an OR ROR ONSEN OR UOTE TSE TO BRUTE SEY A eer pee tt ee Orie Vetere etn SEE Ts SRE Tg regi is cop ne eer Ea ae ase h te AS a aaa aah NEP CRUE cat RE ace nae 8 CT CER gE a6 pee ai en re eee GRIER ya Wk a Reames POS OE G0 CaS oie Pe OE RRA UO eA Co aah + ee ee eee gece ean A ae ae ene rns PRED Re ea et ace ee a iar te ee ee ca eho Cota Gp a Ogee 3 OSCR NMR OCLC en Sane alana Gt at a ac SES ec la SO oc ts en ete eee eee Peed Boe ala cae Te Rr Paps toot eR gee 1 8 ae ele SOUR NCR cL ar tat Gitte ines eaten os Sea Es eee ie ee cee ce ea ea ne A ee Re a ar oes es ae We a aR | ae SUE SECURES. ca SE ea Rice Cate iS re jcc: So te Tar potas!

In his opening remarks the president referred to the fact that *g* very important communication was received from headquarters in Jamaica concerning the mighty program to be put over and the financial backing required from the Negroes of the world, in order to make the undertaking a success. The *members* of the club then and there declared that the matter would get their earnest support. They also expressed the wish that the President General would send each member of the club a copy of the communication sent to the president and chairman of the trustee board, Ross Crowell. We hope this will be done soon, so that those who are anxious to make promises as to the amount they will pay in ten years will get a chance to do so. The next item on the program was a song by Mrs. Rosetta Deil, which was well received. A homely talk by Mrs. Lois Deil, followed by Mrs. Frances Williams with a song and a plea, which were received. The next speaker was Mrs. Washington, who thrilled the audience with his�s�ness and logical speech. Mrs. Ross Crowell was the next speaker, followed by Mr. S. P. Gunnin. The last speaker was Mrs. Martha Hudson. Those on the slick list include Mrs. Millie Johnson, lady president who is greatly missed in her accession place on the rostrum; Mr. Oliver Williams, and Mrs. Anna Hainde. The club begs to extend its sincere best wish to those sick, members, and prays that God's richest blessings may be with them, and that they may soon be restored to their former good health.

A. celebrated Garvey Day on Sunday, February 3, along with the unwelling of a banner which the Division has acquired. A fine program was prepared for the occasion. The president, Mr. V.

FOR THE NEGRO WORLD FOR THE NEGRO WORLD All divisions and chapters, officers and members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are hereby informed that, pending an adjustment of the financial affairs of the Association, those charged with the responsibility of placing The Negro World on the newsstands throughout the world are finding it impossible to meet the weekly obligations of the paper along with other obligations. Divisions of the Association in America are, therefore, urgently requested to solicit donations for The Negro World and forward same to New York Headquarters, 355 Lenox Avenue, immediately so as to insure release of The Negro World from the printers as soon as it is printed. It is to be sincerely hoped that no division or chapter will fail to respond to this appeal in the emergency which has arisen.

Tratan de exterminar al Negro El plan más diálico ha sido ya puesto en ejecución en America y en Africa para destruir y exterminar al negro, y sinembargo el negro enirie a parecer inocente de lo que en su contra se trama como si fuera un recién nacido. Mientras tanto nosotros que comprendemos las cosas tratamos de illuminar lo y que se de cuenta de la setiedad de sus obligaciones, es negro se entrecía, insulta y algunas veces hasta nos hace risos y nos disgusta para seguir adelante presentada su respuesta que tanto necesita. Esta es pues una posición desgracia en que se encurtirá la raza, cuanto nosotros sahemos que los otros elementos, que nos rodean están haciendo todo lo, que puedan en contra nuestra para aplastarrios, y exterminarnos. as diabloico ha sido ya puesto en ejecución a destruir y exterminar al negro, y sinemer inocente de lo que-en su contra se trama lo. Miensitas tanto nosgotos que comprenminarlo y que se de cuenta de la setiedad ro se entrecía, insulta y algunas veces has presidido para señor adiante presidiente La Convención mas grande de la Historia La Universal Negro Improvement Association está ofreciendo la alina espaperana a la gente negra del mundo llamado tomañar parte todos los negros del universo. Si los negros de America, las West Indies, Sur y Centro America y Africa no prostan a este a estrego movimiento entonces pues hay que dejarlos enterramente a que mueran a la vera del camino tal gono e el plan predispuesto ya por las fuerzas-superiores que operan contra de la raza. No es necesario el que revencen ciertas cosas a la hora presente, pero bien puede crier el alaramericana de la raza negra que se esta formado, el complot nislhibolico para la subyugación de la raza en todo el continental tal como la la pensado y lo desea el hombre; y este no se detenida aunque tengan que mover cielo e infinior que llevar a cabo su obra de odio vegetalismo contra el resto de los negros que habiten gate Nuevo Mundo. Por consiguiente toda obstrucción que se ponga en el camino para detener la labor de la U. N. I. A. no es sino otro esfuerzo que se hace por nuestro común antagonista para mantener en la mutilación e imbibilitarnos al derecho de hombre que por naturales microcenos dentro de las razas y los pueblos del orbe. Por fortuna, sin embargo, todos, nosotros no nos ciegos y nos damos perfecte cuenta de lo peligroso de la situación, y por eso nosotros los C. N. I. A. exhortamos a todos y cada uno de las unidades de la raza que unan y como un solo hombre hegan de nuestra sexta Convención internacional la cosa más grande que pueda registrarse en los anales de las actividades humanas. Todas las Divisiones deben informar Cada ramal, division y capitulo y miembros de la organización deberan estar en la línea de fuego. No permitís pues que nada os impida en prestar yuestro apoyo a este movimiento de reindicación; que ninguna dificultad se presente por la cual no podais asistir a la convención; que todas vuestras fuerzas y esfuerzos se unan para llevar a cabo el programa unido por el cual nosotros podemos resolver todos los graves problemas que tenemos delante de si. Tal como manifesté en mi ultima artículo, todo miembro de la U. N. I. A. esta en el deber de observar las actividades de su ramal, division ó capitulo bajo la organización para que estas dependencias se acejan constitucionalmente a las obligaciones del cuerpo directivo. Nosotros queremos cooperación, necesitamos unidhd dentro de la organización, por lo tanto no haya tiempo que perder en quitar del medio el método de indiferencia que hemos asumido desde algún tiempo a esta parte trayendo la organización a un estado que practicamente podemos denominar de inercia. Repetinos pues, que ninguna division, ramal ó capitulo será reconicida la Convención siempre y cuando con se meses de anterioridad su record financial no este a tono con este cuerpo directivo. Esto es aplicable tanto a las divisiones grandes como a las pequeñas. Ninguna persona ó representativo de tales ramales, divisiones ó capitulos perteneciente a esta organización no podrá considerarse financiamente en derecho mientras tanto no cumplí con la ya manifestado anteriormente. Enfierdas también, que ninguna division ó capitulo no financial con esta oficina general no cometa la equivocación de enviar sus delegados a que la representen porque en tal caso tal delegación carecería del derecho representativo por falta de cumplimiento a lo que constitucionalmente ya esté establecido. Hemos llegado a esta conclusion porque tenemos conocimiento que un gran número de las divisiones han estado violando la constitución usando los fondos correspondientes a la oficina general para su propio uso no obstante se mire a este capitulo directivo y se le exige que ponga en vigor el programa ya prescrito. La oficina general la safido mucho en el pasado por esta manera singularista de actuar de las dependencias en que este cuerpo central desansa; y estamos determinados por todos los medios constitutivos y de que en lo sucesivo se corrijan energicamente tales irregularidades. Todos los miembros están en la oblíctica de pager una cuota amulet de impuesto. Ninguna división podrá retener un cuota amulet que pertenece a una tasa y tales dinero deberá ser mantida a que obligen generalmente. Becer a cabo todavía la obligación mínima que oblige a organizar la organización de pager en posición.

Con los mejores deseos, ne suscribo, vuestros obedientes servidor, MARCOS GARVEY. President General Universal Negro Improvement Association. Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I. February 5, 1929. COLUMNA VERTEBRAL Como Shelley, amplio a ser útiles, independente y justo, a funca hacerme comos, jir tun con mi milencio, de los que usan y los poderosos. El paraleo biográfico, curiosismo invento del historiador Plutarco, fascina más por el relieve que impr ine a las diferencias que por los parecidos que sehala entre los grandes personajes de, una epita o de una raza. Quien, como el señor Gadea Pico, empieza por entusias- marse con el significado literal de las Parallela, terminará por aur- dirse al darse cuenta de las reali- des históricas que sufen servir de marco al retrato de cualquier h ombre ilustrte. Asi tenemos que Temistocles bien puede aparecer como un delincuente se se le considera aislado de su tiempo, trasplantado en espiritu y obras al plano ideal de comparación con que suele embeldesarnos el método de análisis de Plutarcro. La Democracia Griega Visto, sin embargo, destacado sobre el fondo de la democracia griega. Temistocles nos resulta un decoroso ejemplo de la cultura política más alta. Durante los cuatro siglos en que la democracia ateniense se desenvuelve en la etapa del ensayo, o-sea desde,la expulsion de los pisistratistas, Greece no presenta un politico tan equilibrado como Temistocles, con la probable excepción de Pericles. Los defectos capitales de aquel hombre refléjam por entero la deficiencia intrinseca de la democracia griega, cuyo desastroso experimento termino en ocho siglos de esclavitud bajo la tautela de estirpes forasteras. Con todo, no es en el que dan su fruto sazonado las dokturas de los sofistas, sino en Pericles. Bajo el dominio de ambos, los rgries caminan pasivamente en la era de su mayor florecimiento, ofrececindescual fitto divino a una diversidad de expresiones que luego producen el primer arte eclectico, pero original, de que se tiene noticia. Claro está que Ternistocles no puede orientarse con aciertor apuella época de reajuste cultural, desde que su destino era el de tu sífic actor ator al designio superior de una civilización maestra, llamada a imponer sus canones a todas las tribus de la tierra. Si cae en el encasillado de los sinibicinos no es suya la culpa del delito; el es el instrumento de una Grecia asidada por los persas, y temida por el mundo contiguo, de una Grecia que tiene suficiente conocimiento infuso de la historia cuando presentir el sitio de Samos cuando apenas han transcurrido 40 años de la enorme derrota de Salamina. Las ciudades helenas del Asia, convertidas en tributarias de los persas, chanan por la espada redentora. Tervo-como no hay soldados entre los retóricos ni generales entre los filosofos, el valor de la cultura surpa el aplanta de la guerta y se producen fenómenos de grandeza militar comparables a los del imperio romano o napolórico. Hómeno Mencuura, Doestrina Perdurho. Este lamentable tiempo de Temitocles, viciado aún después del destiero de los discipulso y continuadores de Pisistrato, tenia que pasar, como pasan las rubes obedciendo al impulso caprichoso de los fenómenos meteorológicos. Abonado el terreno para el advenimiento de Pericles; Temistocles no logra sustraerse a la revolución nacional creada por la intervención de Isocrates y Demóstenes—oradores fogos, elocuentes profetes de la decadencia que se evincita con el ascenso de la oratoria y la retórica. La influencia honda y definida de los sofistas perdura en el verdadero espíritu que la informa—fenomeno de lenguaje y de dialectica, fenomeno de lógica y de pensamiento; no ya contribución directa; elemento contributivo en el deaborfamiento general de la cultura helenína. Porque que hay que tener en cuenta que el centro fundamental del heliismo es centro de arte y de filosofía, sujeto a una ley de continuidad en abierto desierto del método sofís, nada bien analizable y desintegrata. Los grandes raciones y losofos de la esculpa sofís representan el atmósfera flora centro del algum conmovedor, el apremio, el Progression y Gorges frente al atmósfera ala fuco de los glaucos. Lactat y puro, que mantienen miento de los softsinas se derive de los appisionados criterios de hombres como Platón y Aristofanes, enemigos naturales de la escuela y sus doctrinas. Y mucha más lastima que el amigo Gadea haya bebido los datos en la fuente sospechosa de Plutarco, quien está imbuido en las ideas de Platón y casi-puede decirse que influenciado por una pricialidad salvaje hacia la cultura, dogmática que en no pocas ocasiones trata de pasatnos como prenda genuina el ilustre discipulo de Socrates. Si de algo sirve la psicologia moderna es de confirmación de las doctrinas cardinales de los sofistas; que el señor Gadea parece tomar a aroma. Las más solida de las doctrinas'es la de Protágoras, que considera la verdad de efecto relativo y la,valora, de acuerdo con la utilidad que representa para el el humano. Protágoras formuló una doctrina perdurable y digna, Homo Mensura, que sirve de corazon a ese que el vulgo considera banales ejercicios de astucia de los sofistas. LIBRO DE LINCOLN Roosevelt, en un discurso que pronunció acerca de la necesidad y preeminencia de la educación religiosa, dijo: "Lincoln (aquel varon melancólico, paciente y hondadeso, quien después de llevar sobre sus fatigaciones hombros durante cuatro años una carga más abrumadora que la sostenida por ningún otro hombre su vida por el pueblo al que vita teni bien sirvió), tuvo por unica lectura, en su juventud, el Nuevo Testamento. Lo conocía no como un erudito, sino más profundamente, como un creyente. Según el solía deciir, los únicos tres libros que leyó duraderamente con amor, en el curso de su existencia, fueron la Bibli, Shakespeare y las Vidas Paralelas de Plutarco... Pero su frase favorita acerca de este era: "Yo soy hombre de un solo libro, y este es la Bibli."

The counselor of the American Legation, Mahlon Fay Porka, arrived at Nanking more than 6. a week ago, and the latest information from the capital is that Consul General Boling continues to remain there for the present. While there is no indication that Mr. Perkins intends to take up a permanent residence at Nanking, his prolonged visit is regarded as significant, particularly among the Chinese, who are optimistically inclined to the view that both Great Britain and the United States again are taking the lead in reopening full diplomatic relations with the Nationalist Government, although they do not expect removal of the minister until further signs of permanence as well as accommodations appear: Formal announcement of Mr. Newton's transfer, however, has caused a further swing of the pendulum of friendship toward Great Britain and is undoubtedly a substantial token of London's sincere effort to regain the full friendship of China, temporarily lost in the early days of the revolution. Officers to Study Stability. Others to study diplomacy. The other American diplomat who visited the capital recently were the military attack, Major John Maturkridge, the naval attack, Captain Hales Powell, the naval neither made definite statements on the difference of their visits, Major Maturkridge is believed to have gone to Nanking about the time of the recent disbandment of the conference to gain firsthand impressions of the sincerity of the Chinese militarists involved. Captain Powell said he came to Shanghai, via Nanking, to attend the launching of a new Chinese man-of-war. However, it is believed both as well as Mr. Perkins were first to report officially their impressions of theABILITY of the Nationalist Government, which all trained observers are well able to do, and hence it is probable that their reports will definitely guide future American policy regarding the date of the location's removal. Another highly significant phase in China's foreign relations of the past week was the taking effect of the new tariff scheduled yesterday. The day YOUR DAY MAY WILL FREE Two men mean it.

Japan has assumed the important increase, which has gone into effect apparently without a blink. The Japanese Minister, Mr. Yoshitsuwa, is remaining in Shanghai, and he says he intends to renew his parallels with Dr. C. T. Wong, the Nationalist Government Foreign Minister, shortly, and hopes to settle the Taiwan affair of last May, as well as sign a tariff compact and a commercial treaty, and settle the withdrawal of the Japanese troops from Shantung. Internal Taxes Abolished Incidentally, it is understood that the Nationalist Government has signed an agreement with the Standard and other large oil interests agreeing to abolish likin, or internal taxes, forthwith, all duties to be payable at Shanghai. In the event that the companies are forced to pay further taxes in the interior of China, Tibet, Mongolia and Manchuria, Nanking will refund the amounts paid there. Of significance is Nanking's apparent intent to centralize the national finances despite the opposition of Szechuan and other opposing provinces.
