Hour Has Struck for Universal Concord Among the Scattered Groups of Negroes
Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting:
The Universal Negro Improvement Association is now making another appeal to the scattered units of our race to realize that the hour has struck for universal concord. Now, more than at any other time in the history of our downfall, must we unite to meet the common opposition hurled against us by the more progressive and favored groups of humanity. I say progressive and favored groups, not because it has been a special privilege, but because circumstances have so influenced the career of the races as to have burdened the Negro race with the misfortune of not knowing and realizing that all power for good or ill, for progress and prosperity, is resident in the groups so desiring it. The progressive peoples of today realize that their progress is due only to their initiative and continuity of application to duty, and that whenever any other race becomes so conscious of itself as to exert all its manhood toward the given goal, they also will enjoy the glorious advantage of progress. It is in this direction that the Universal Negro Improvement Association desires to inspire the scattered units of the Negro race at this time. We feel that by cooperation and determination we can rise above all our ills and in another decade show to the world a progressive race and, no doubt, a successful nation.
A Far-Reaching Program
Our Sixth Annual International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World is to discuss a program far reaching in its importance. Its declared agenda is one that could well engage the attention of any nation or people that has the ambition to look forward. It is encouraging, however, to realize that every section of our race seems to realize the importance of the forthcoming convention, and the matters to be discussed thereat.
President-General in Stirring Appeal Calls Upon Members of the Race to Lay the Foundation Next August for Undeniable Progress
Reports That Negroes Everywhere Are Realizing the Far-Reaching Importance of the August Conclave
Difficulties of the Past Must Be Forgotten Except as They Serve to Inspire the Race to Greater Effort
bearing on the convention reveals the fact that the whole world of Negroes is alive to the seriousness of the occasion and is making every effort to see that the event will be one worthy of a place in history. This convention shall bring together a more determined group of American, West Indian, South and Central American, African and scattered Negroes than any other previous conclave. We are banking on a united purpose and, with the spirit of a Titan, we shall go forth to make a place for ourselves in the world and to win the glories of man. Forget Difficulties
Let us forget the difficulties of the past, except by way of using them as inspirations. Let us forget that here and there we have been opposed, except to strengthen our united front to make it possible not to falter by any such repetition. That the Negro must go forward is not only the exclamation of man, but the law of Nature and God. As a race, we shall start forward during the year 1929. We shall break down all opposition, all barriers, even if they stand as the mighty Alps.
Our Ability as Men
Now is the time for us to prove our ability as men; to prove that we can unite; to prove that through co-operation we can work together to achieve a given goal. We may well assert that Nature has been wonderfully kind to us in sun-
great and useful results. How happy and pleasant a thing it is to see a race, determined and ambitious, grow from a condition of inferiority to one of eminence and power. This can be made possible for the Negroes of the world by uniting their forces under the banner of the Red, Black and Green of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the year 1929. We promise that with this co-operation another year shall see us well on the way to permanent security, economically, politically, socially and religiously. So let us again appeal to the Negroes of America, the West Indies, South and Central America, Africa and the world over to come together this year as we have never been together before.
Divisions and Members
Again I beg to remind all Divisions, Chapters and Branches of the organization all over the world that our parent organization can only become strong and the power it ought to be when every unit rallies to its constitutional obligations. Now is the time for every Division, Branch and Chapter to be financial with the parent body. Every member and officer should pay his and her assessment tax. Let every local officer carry out his constitutional duties in reporting regularly each month to the parent body, so that his particular Division or Branch and members can be financial, thereby making it possible, for us at headquarters to be in such a position as to be able to execute every item of the program.
With very best wishes, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant.
If President Hoover takes the advice of the minority group of the Porto Rican Legislature, composed of "Pure Republicans" and Socialists, he will not pay much attention to the demands for more home rule and a native Governor sent to him by the majority group shortly after his inauguration, but will ask Congress to authorize a United States Government loan amounting to $100,000,000 as a step toward solving the island's

economic troubles.
The majority resolution was passed by a strict party vote, the minority amendment being rejected by 11 to 8 in the Senate and 21 to 18 in the House.
Send Letter to Hoover
The minority group cabled its protest against the majority resolution to the President and reinforced it with the following letter, made public by Senator Santiago Iglesias, secretary of the Pan-American Federation of Labor and leader of the opposition of the Porto Rican Legislature:
The Hon. Herbert Clark Hoover,
President of the United States,
Washington, D. C.
Honorable Sir:
Permit us to confirm our cable of March 4, 1923, opposing the concurrent resolution of the Legislature of Porto Rico asking for more self-government and an appointing native Governor until Congress provides for an elective Governor. This program of the legislature will be for the actual needs of Porto Rico. A copy of our cable is attached.
The problems of Porto Rico are wholly economic and social, and until successful effort is made for economic and social improvement through industrialization there is no hope for the employment of the 400,000 workers constantly life, the proper feeding of hundreds of thousands who for decades if not generations have been underfed, overfed, worn and tuberculosis, which consequently prey upon our people, causing goodless suffering and almost countless deaths.
Believing, as we do, that the only hope for Porto Rico is through economic improvement and not by political legislation which the Allanza urges, we as representatives of more than one-half of the people of Porto Rico, and voicing what we believe to be the consensus of sound opinion of the whole island, have included in the Legislature a joint resolution calling not only for a study of our needs but suggesting certain special action by Congress and the United States. A copy of this resolution is attached.
Want Indebtedness Refunded
Specifically, this resolution makes that the United States pertains the ticular and municipal indebtedness of Porto Rico, amounting to approximately $50,000,000, the island repaying the United States, both principal and interest, over a long period of years. The program, in similar terms, be advanced, to carry to completion the program of sexual and elementary education, with particular attention paid to trade and agricultural training; the extension of the health and sanitation-program and the promotion of an industrialization program, not only to provide work for 400,000 idle, but as a means of livelihood to hundreds of thousands of undernourished, underprivileged o
From the standpoint of round the investment, we believe people from the part of the United States is not only warranted, but we are firmly convinced that in no other way, will the 1,500,000 American citizens of Porto Rico—the largest group of citizens anywhere outside of the United States—commence to realize the hopes and aspirations which citizenship inspires. The advantages of such a program are by no means for the benefit of Porto Rica alone. The $100,000,000 needed, in fact, represents no more
Announcing the readiness of the United States Government to cooperate in a study and survey of the proposed Pan-American highway, Dr. L. S. Rowe, director general of the Pan-American Union, has written the envoys of the Latin-American nations apprising them of the passage of the Celsius resolution authorizing the appropriation of $0,000 for that purpose. The Secretary of State when the funds are appropriated, will have at his disposal $8,000 to be expended in working with the governments of Central and South America in the first field study of this project that has been undertaken since the days when Henry May first broached it.
2 NEGROES FORCED TO RUN GAUNTLET OF MOB'S GUNFIRE
Two Farmers Seized by Mob and Riddled with Bullets and Shot —Held on Lying Charge of "Attacking" Woman
MARION, Ark., March 25—(C.N.S.)—One of the most cold-blooded acts of white ruling class terrorism against the Negro workers was perpetrated here yesterday, when two Negro farm workers William James and T. B. Robertson, demanding their wages of a white plantation owner, were seized by a mob of planters and made to run a gauntlet of revolver and gun-fite shot.
For no other reason than that the wife of the white plantation owerprojected herself into the argument over the unpaid wages of these slaves, James and Robertson were arrested on a charge of "attacking a white woman," the charge carrying the insinuation of intention of rape. The white planters, however, were not satisfied with a mere arrest, even though they knew that their courts would hand out still sentences to these victims. They wished to strike terror at the heart of the Negro farm workers of this district, who are virtually held and treated as slaves. Cheira and shoal of laughter arose from terrorism as the two men, forced to start on a line and run in a certain direction, stumbled through a veritable hall of bullets and shot, stumbled and rose again as they beat again and again.
The mobsters were in such good humour over the success of their variation on the usual methods that they did not insist on killing the men on the spot, an was intended. They persecuted the men to be dumped into a hospital at Earle, where the men are expected to die from their many wounds.
FILIPINOS AROUSED BY CUBAN-SUGAR PROPOSAL
WASHINGTON, March 16. Representatives of, the Philippine Lions took the wathpath today in answer to the Cuban proposal relative to the sugar tariff which would benefit Cuba as the expense of the Philippines would be reduced by the Philippines to 300,000 tons a year. At the same time, Representative Cordell Holl (D, Penn.), a member of the Ways and Means Committee, criticized the position of those Denmarkers who refuse to have their party join in the high tariff program. Mr. Holl, a member of the idea committee, said that Senator La Follette, namely, a strictly protective tariff for infant industries.
Alfred E. Dennis of the Tariff Commission has proposed to the Waves and Means Committee that the commission be made simpler to the Interstate Commerce Commission, and be directly responsible to Congress. The Dennis plan is broader than that recently proposed by Representative Garner of Texas, who would have the commission appointed by Congress and responsible to it, but without sweeping power and court-like character. Dennis and Garner believe this would take the tariff out of politics.
The Cuban proposal on sugar tariff was understood by members of the Ways and Means Committee to constitute a general reciprocal trade arrangement. The tariff would make Cuba would stipulate practically all tariffs on farm products and reduce or remove those on manufactured products.
English government to make in recovering some of the money spent in the government.
The bill has been passed by Liberia in the Washington Hibern Company of Arlington.
A question in parliament recently brought forth the fact that the British company has a remedy in Liberian court. They have sheed a call to choose they will sue in Monrovia, with the English watching the proceedings or whether they will prefer the British government to invite Liberia to submit the whole case to arbitration.
Gilmore Said to Be Choice of Filipinos To Succeed Stimson
MANILA, Feb. 24.—Since Governor General Henry L. Stimson relinquished his administration of Philippine affairs speculation concerning his successor has been rife in the Filipino, American and foreign communities here.
The Stimson administration is not worthy for two things: the emphasis laid on the importance of agricultural and industrial development through the use of American capital and the introduction of means for the effective co-operation of the executive and legislative departments.
The Governor Stimson's term of longer than year he achieved in both respects substantial results. There was genuine co-operation in the effort to promote the economic development which every one agrees is the present greatest need of the Philippine Islands.
All elements of the Philippine community, industrial, commercial and political, are anxious to see that program of economic development continued.
People Fear Changes
'What the people of the Philippine islands want is reasonable stability and continuity in the office of the Governor General. They like the people of the United States, contemplate a change of chief executives with unanimous and concern. They dislike to run the risk of a new Governor General, especially one who may come with a new jersey, or a differ-ent conception concerning the scope of ex-mergers. The Governor General has since under the administration of Governor General Stimson a satisfactor understanding has been reached concerning the relative spheres of the job relative and executive branches.
The Fruticos are believers in continuity of leadership. They hate change and prefer men whom they understand. If the selection of Governor Salazar succeeds, a candidate be declared by a popular vote of the people in the Philippines there is no doubt that Europe A. Gilmore, who has been acting Governor General since Johnson's departure, would be the choice.

Arab Living Near Cairo
Said to Be 153 Years Old
CAIRO, March 23. All Arab who claims to be 153 years old has been visited by a deputation including the provincial police commandant and the director of education of Caliro. They found him living in a tiny room six feet square in Fayum, near Caliro, and he appeared to be little more than a living skeleton.
HAYANA, March 21—Hayat is the first to accept the invitation of the Cuban Government to take part in the Pan-American Olympic games, which will be held in Havana in 1930. Invitations have been extended to other countries to take part and a special stadium is to be built to accommodate the thousands who are expected to attend.

Mussolini is meeting the Pope in the Council of the Catholic Scholars — Needs Catholic Missionaries
ANKO—The alliance which has now been concluded between Mussolini and the Pope is an instrument of Italian colonial policy. Mussolini hopes that with the assistance of the Pope and the Catholic Church he will be able to pursue his aims more ruthlessly than ever before, and his reciting is correct. The assistance of the Catholic Church in the colonial policy of Pacifism is nothing new, and the settlement of the outstanding problems between the Church and the Italian State took place. because the Catholic very much needs the services of the Pope and the Catholic Church, and above all of the Catholic missionaries who are tremendously useful as colonists.
Missions Satisfied
The missionaries themselves were strongly in favor of the treaty between Mussolini and the Pope. Missionary newspapers and journals report the conclusion of the Lateran Treaty with great satisfaction, and declare Mussolini to be a man useful to God, because Mussolini supports the missions to the heathen. For years now the missionaries have been the Fascist State that the missionaries were practically nothing but officials of Mussolini.
Mussolini needs these missionaries as his spies. This is particularly true of the missionaries of Abyssinia. The ruler of Abyssinia is, of course, very well aware of this activity of the missionaries and prohibited them from entering certain districts, but the missionaries report with pride that they nevertheless, succeeded in penetrating into these districts in disguise, and "with the assistance of God," Musolini's assistance being passed over. The Impacy, too, was very well satisfied with the work of the missions, and the Papal Cardinal Secretary, Despard, sent a letter to the Abyssinian missions praising them for their good work.
With FRI and Sword
The utterances of the Governor-
General of Somaliland, Dovecch, upon
taking office, are typical of the policy
pursued by Mussolini with the support of
theilio missionaries. Dovecch
occurred; T. theilio missionaries
and sword. The cursed period of
democracy is at an end. I shall do
what I find good, and I have learned
to use my sword." And this program
has really been carried out by the Fascists; they have come with fire and sword, declimating the population; they have done what they found good. The realm of terror in Tirpoll and Somaliland is almost unparalleled. And all the actions of Mussolini's agents were supported by the Catholic missionaries.
"For the King of Italy"
This support, which was formerly given in practice, will now be given officially and under the seal of Rome. In the future prayers will be offered up in all Italian churches for the King of Italy. One of these prayers reads in allows: "Let us pray for our most religious King, so that the Lord may bless us with peace and grant us eternal peace." The Pope has thus become a colonial politician. He has made an alliance with Musellini in order to subjugate the barbarian peoples so that capitalism may exploit them more effectively.
Russia Will Help Return
KANSAS CITY, Kun., March 21.—Bodies of American war dead buried in Northern Russia and Siberia are to be removed to the United States as soon as the graves are located. It was announced today by Eugene P. Carver Jr., commander in chief of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Mr. Carver said the Russian Interior Commissioner for Foreign Affairs has agreed to co-operate with the veterans organization in locating the graves and removing the bodies, which are those of soldiers who fell on the eastern front in the World War.
The veterans organization took action for the removal of the bodies as the War Department could not do so because of the absence of diplomatic relations between the United States and the Soviet Government, Mr. Carver said.
CAPE TOWN, South Africa. March 22—The Dominion election campaign was opened today by James Barry Heitzing, Prime Minister, who outlined his stand on the natives' rights question. His views were aimed, in the first place, to look to the white man, he said, though he never denied to do anything against the natives.
"In a question of the matter the truth being is so directly expressed on the intention of the Dominion State of the future the poor will amount to the majority and will be the majority" the Prime Minister designed. This may be questioned by the question of the future.

LONDON, March 25.—The standard
of Rhodes scholars from Hibernia and
Jamaica was criticized today before
the University of London, which is considering a bill promoted by the Rhodes trustees to change the methods of apportioning
the scholarships.
If the bill is approved, it will also mean the substitution of eight American scholarship districts in place of the forty-eight States, as at present. Philip Kerr, secretary to the Rhodes trust, testified that the type of scholar from Bermuda and Jamaica "has not reached the standard the trustees are going to insist on in the future as absolutely necessary to carry out the ideals and integration of the founder." The counsel for the trust added that Bermuda had the population of only a small English country town and that it was hopeless to expect a steady number of Rhodes scholars from such a restricted source. If the bills are passed, the trustees would have the power to select one scholar each year from that region, including British Gulaga and Honduras.
Negroes See Attempt To Drive Them Out Of Republican Politics
WASHINGTON, March 22—Negroes here are indignant over what they describe, as a determined purpose to drive them out of politics. They assert that an unfair attempt to force Perry W. Howard to resign from the Republican Committee and permit the election of a white man from Mississippi is being made by party leaders. They argue that if he would quit the committee, influence would be exerted to have the indictments charging him with conspiracy to sell federal offices dismissed.
Negro Republicans also assert that Mrs. Mary C. Booze, National Committeewoman from Mississippi, and Mrs. George S. Williams, National Committeewoman from Georgia, the only Negro women on the committee, were requested not to attend the Republican convention given to former chairmen here during inauguration week. They consider this a slight the race cannot overlook.
News reached here today that the trial of Howard G. F. McLeelland (white), E. L. Patton (Negro) and James C. G. McLeelland (white) at Meridian has been postponed until April 8 on motion of the federal prosecutor, on the ground that the government could not get a fair trial, as the community was in sympathy with the defendants. This action took place after the case had been called and the jury sworn. Howard and those indicted with him had asked the Department of Justice to delay the trial until May to give them time to prepare for it, but this request was refused. Then, the judge summoned the prosecutors, summoned and Mississippi papers predicted that the jury would acquit the defendants, Judge Allen Cox, recently appointed United States District Judge, on motion of the government, postponed it. Howard's lawyers say that his first trial, at which he was acquitted, cost him $11,000, and the preparation for the new one $4,000 or $5,000.
Leading, Negroes of the country have urged Howard to stand firm in his fight for the retention of his position on the National Committee, to which he was duly elected.
Turkey to Tax Celibacy
CONSTANTINOPLE, March 19.
Turkey's swift transition from flipper-lathing to bachelor apartments and the first generation of old maids have given rise to official alarm at the possibility of deprivation and to the creation of a penalty tax. This impot will equal the total of present income and general taxes, and will be imposed on bachelor's off from twenty-five to forty-five years of age, and pinsters of from twenty to thirty-five and on childless widows and widowers.
Twenty per cent. of the revenue of the tax will be distributed to families with a minimum of five children.
other leading figures, who opposed the government's plan and urged full仗議議-rights for the native, would inevitably lead to the disappearance of South Africa as a white man's country. Premier Hertzog answered. The manifesto was nothing, he said, than a direct challenge to every man who believed in a white South Africa. A challenge that could not be ignored would lead to the disappearance of the native.
CAIRD: March 21—Prom almost any standpoint one can mention Egypt is a unique country. It is certainly one which antigrammes should watch with care, for it is not only her 1,000-year-old minnies and tombs which give her that distinction, but also her present political exhibitions, which, if successful, may cause revolutionary changes not only in Europe and the Mediterranean.
U.S. EXPEDITION TO STUDY LIFE IN WEST AFRICA
Year or More Will Be Spent Delving Into Secrets and Mysteries of Life of Natives of Angola and Nigeria
Solution of the mysteries of native life in two of the least known regions of Africa is one of the objects of a new expedition which the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago is sending out, according to Stephen C. Simms, director of the museum. The expedition, known as the Rawson-Field Museum Ethnological Expedition to West Africa, has been arranged under the sponsorship of Fredrick H. Rawson, a Chicago baker, who is one of the museum's trustees.
W. D. Hambly, assistant curator of 'African ethnology on the museum staff, is leader of the expedition. Operations will first be carried on in Angola or Portuguese West Africa, where no detailed ethnological work has ever been conducted by an American or British institution. About seven will be spent there. The expedition will then proceed north to Nigeria. There attempts will then be made to solve the many mysteries surrounding the ancient native city of Benin, whiles was discovered by the Portuguese in 1485.
Cruel rites involving human sacrifice reported to have been practiced in Benin will be investigated. Attempts will be made to decipher the records of bygone cultures known to exist on carved stone mountains in Nigeria. The searchlight of science will be played upon the weird rituals of strange secret societies of the jungles. Efforts will be made to trace the influence which ancient Egyptians and early Arab cultures may have had upon the natural talents of aboriginal Negroes for handicrafts of different kinds.

Students' at Howard. U.
Emphasizing Scholarship
In contra-distinction to emphasis placed upon extra-curricular activities, especially athletics, students of Howard University in recent years have inaugurated a movement to popularize scholarship. This has come about through the organization of various honor societies. The latest of these in the Gamma Chapter of Bota Chapel Christian organization. The society holds its first public meeting in Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel last Wednesday, when new student(s) were admitted to membership.
The requirement for membership in the organization is a general average of 57 per cent, or a grade of A upon the completion of fifteen science units. The following students were enrolled: Georgia E. Oden, of Yonkers, N. Y., the first co-oced to qualify in any university for admission to Beta Kappa Chi; James W. D. Ferdinand, of British Guiana; Robert B. Phillips, of Angola, Africa; William H. Smith, Washington, D. C., and James E. Walker, also of Washington, D. C. Charter members of the organization are Walter E. Merrick, president, and La Verte W. Jones, Cecil M. Marguez, Alva B. Harper, R. O. Murray, Lawrence W. Green, Jones Mosee, J. Isaac K. Givens, Richard A. Brown, H. Donald Marshall, William Sinkler, Cressa Pow, Nelson H. Nichols Wilburn, Winchester Marquis C. Campey
Faculty members of the society are Dean Dudley W. Woodard, Dr. Ernest E. Jant, Dr. Paul Bartsch, Dr. Harbert C. Scurll, Professor Charles E. Parken, Professor Frank Coleman, Professor Percy L. Jukan, with President Mordecai W. Johnson as patron.

It would be impossible to list here the ways in which Egypt is totally different from any other country. She has, for one thing, a longer recorded history than any other land; she depends more on the flow of one river, the Nile, than do any other people depend on the flow of any stream; and this river, according to ancient type which has scarcely varied throughout the ages in spite of countless invasions of foreign peoples.
Isolated In Ancient Times
In prehistoric times, however, when the Pharaohs conquered the surroundings tribes, Egypt enjoyed a distinction which she no longer can claim. She then was apart from the rest of the world. The dose, which flanked her for hundreds of miles made a hostile invasion almost impossible. She was away from the world and could do as she liked.
But what changes time has wrought Today she is bound up with the rest of the world as tightly as any nation can be. The Suez Canal—that vital link between East and West—runs through Egyptian territory, and what happens to that canal in everybody's business. If it were damaged or destroyed the world would feel the shock—and a world so highly industrialized and organised as ours cannot take such shocks lightly. Egypt's fate is so tightly bound up with the canal that a little of the canal's history must be set down.
Fifty years is a short time in which to expect the first seeds of self-government to show results, ye in Egypt that the people have satisfaction to all who have labored in Egypt's behalf. The Prime Minister of Egypt today is an Egyptian—the son of fellahin, a plain Nile farmer. His name is Mohamed Pasha Mahmoud, and although he has only been in power since June, 1928, he has done it so well, that he deserves to rank high in the list of contemporary statesmen.
His claim to distinction would rest secure if only it depended on the fact that he, a fellahin, was at the head of a country which had for centuries been under foreign domination. But in himself he is an unusual man—one whom other nationalists in other countries would do well to emulate.
Mahmoud realizes that whatever mistakes the British may make they would be made by them already done. It a lot of good and are every day performing services to Egypt which Egypt cannot perform for herself. Until she can do so, he wants to co-operate, he is willing to agree with them when they say 'No' to some attempt to put back the clock and revive the days of barbarism.
Reforma Instituted
His motto is, "We must put our own house in order," and he has so far shown himself faithful to that ideal. With him law and order are paramount. In his few months in office he has taken measures for strengthening the already excellent police force and is now perfecting plans for ridding the country of drugs, for in the last seven years the smuggling of drugs from Europe has reached such proportions that it is estimated there are 500,000 addicts among the pennsary alone today. He has taken measures toward improving public health and has already caused the erection of 150 hospitals in Egyptian villages and the filling up of malarial swamps. He is trying to abolish the Oriental slums in Egypt and has purchased sites for the construction of model houses. Again, like the British and like his country's benefactors in ancient times, he sees the need for more water and is working on a $120,000,000 project for damming and irrigation.
He began his administration in an even more unnatural way. He would have no nepotism, no favoritism, noth-

THRILLING STORY OF A BRILLIANT, RESOURCEFUL NEGRO LEADER WHO LED THE GREATEST REVOLT OF BLACK MEN IN MODERN TIMES

OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE
To Whom It May Concern:
In Forwarding Letters to Us in the Future, Please Be sure to Address Them to
THE NEGRO WORLD
The first speaker was Mrs. E. Capers, Lady Vice-President. In an earnest address she appealed to the various units to work in harmony for the common good of the organization and so live up to the organization's motto, "One God, One Alm and One Destiny."
Mrs. L. McCartney, Second Lady Vice-President, also followed with an address of which unity was the theme.
Mr. J. Buchanan, a visitor from Port Antonio, Jamaica, was then introduced. He said he desired to impress on the membership that they had a duty to perform to the organization to which they belonged and they could best perform that duty if they were true to themselves. And in seeking to be true to themselves they must inculcate self-respect. To be self-respecting they must, among other things, cast away evil thoughts, they must rouse themselves from lethargy, put on the armor of righteousness, they must see the light—and the light must be the truth. Members must remember that they must not only worship Mareus Garvey but they must love and cherish the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association — they must know themselves and everything
would be well. All petty jealousies must be thrust aside.
MR. SMITH'S ADDRESS
Mr. J. Smith, New York veteran, next spoke. He deprecated the tendency which he said he had noticed within the group to be easily perturbed by little clashes. Disagreements were bound to come, and while it should be the aim of the various branches of the association to make disagreements rare, if they did come members should keep cool and, above everything else, not magnify their significance. He prophesied there would be many heated clashes before the association's program was fulfilled. The Negroes of the U. N. I. A. were pointing the way to nationhood and they should allow nothing to defect their attention from prosecuting the program as outlined to them by their great leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, who was a shining example of how not to be discouraged or cast down.
Hon. Mme. M. L. T. De Mena. Assistant International Organizer, was the last speaker. She took as her text, "Work while ye have the light, lost darkness come upon you. He that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth." Illustrating her text, Mme. De Mena said the Hon. Marcus Garvey had brought the light
Honesty was in his business, and he would build the foundation of the enterprise, on that they were two thousand years ago because he had demonstrated to them his qualities of leadership. So it came to pass that they showed palm in his way and chanted honanaa. Marcus Garvey, too, had demonstrated his fitness to lead. He had done a deed which many had despaired of ever being able to do a deed which certain people were want to declare could never be done—brought Ngrosa, scattered to the ends of the earth, together in sentiment and purpose, and it was the duty of the race to accord him what he deserved and what he would prize, and that was whole-hearted and devoted service to the cause which he espoused and so ably led. It was the duty of the race to work while yet there was light, for no man knew what the darkness would descend.
"HARLEM," NEW NEGRO PLAY IN DEMAND BY MANAGERS
A Chicago company of "Harlem," the play of New York's Black Belt which is attracting considerable patronage to the Apollo Theatre, is announced by Edward A. Blatt, its producer.
The second company will open for a three-week engagement at the Lafayette Theatre, Detroit, on Sunday night. April 7, and then settle in the Selwyn Theatre, Chicago, for an indelinite run. Its cast is now in rehearsal under the direction of Chester Friskin, who staged the New York production.
Considering the fact that "Harlem" has been running only four weeks, the formation of a second company at this early stage may be looked upon as an unprecedented theatrical procedure. "Harlem" has attracted more than ordinary attention "out of town, and the demands for its exhibition in other cities have come from managers as far west as San Francisco.
will be investigated. These are a few of the objectives of this expedition, which is expected to result in contributions of much new and important information to the science of anthropology as a whole, and to yield much valuable new material for the museum collections.
Proceeding to London, Mr. Hambly will make preliminary preparations for the expedition, and then go to Lobito, a port of Angola. At Lobito a caravan, including a score or so of native porters and pack mules and bullock carts, will be outfitted, and the expedition will plunge into the interior.
Relations will be established with one of the numerous Bantu Negro peoples of the country, probably some tribe of the Ovimbundu people. Mr. Hambly plans to live among these people for an extended period, studying and recording every detail of their customs, religion, medical practices and influence of the medicine men, manner of living, tribal organization and other phases of their lives. During this time he will assemble a large collection of native products, such as iron work, bankery, carvings, implements, clothing and other objects illustrating their various activities.
There is no part of Africa on which anthropologists have no little information, says Dr. Berthold Lauter. Curator of Anthropology at the museum. In addition to the general collection of artifacts, the expedition will obtain data and material for several proposed groups of life-sized figures illustrating native industries and ceremonials, to be constructed and installed in the museum.
Mr. Hambly will proceed from Angola to Nigeria probably about November of this year. There he will organize a second caravan and begin work around the delta of the Niger River. After preliminary operations he will penetrate into the interior, traveling far up the river in native canoes after he has passed the most inland point reached by the small steamers navigating the lower river. Frequent excursions ashore will be made.
Benth, one of the points to be visited, is famous as the center of the finest African art work in bronze, wood carving and ivory, of which representative collections will be made for the museum. Some excellent examples of this work, acquired in the past, are at present on exhibition in the museum. Mr. Hamby plans to make studios in the palace of the king to determine the uses of many objects of native production which have to date remained a mystery. A visit will also be made to Bida, the only African native community in which an industry and art of glass-blowing has been developed, distinct from and unifiedized by glass manufacturing methods of the white race. An art of making fiels chared beaten bronze work, also developed at Bida, will be studied and examples collected. Around these centers of artisite production live the Bida and other very primitive peoples, whose lives will be the subject of research by the expedition.
Mr. Humblly, an Oxford graduate, has had previous experience in Africa with the Wellcome Expedition to the Sudan. He has been at Field Museum for more than two years, where he has had charge of the exhibition in the African hall opened last June.

South African copper producers are offering serious competition to American companies and within five years are expected to turn out 600,000 tons annually, close to the production of this country, according to a review published by Sulshachen, Granger & Co.
"Universal optimism concerning the revived copper industry needs the partial restraint imposed by the ultimate certainty of serious competition from Africa," continues the review. "Here the extraordinary continuity and thickness of the proven ore deposits, in mineralised zones running hundreds of miles long and ten to fifty miles wide, assaying from 3 to 6 per cent in copper, indicates that mass production of the metal is assured.
"At the present time, two companies are rapidly increasing their output and five others are nearing production. Last year Africa produced 119,000 tons of copper and within five years is expected to produce 600,000 tons annually. Aside from their definite location of commercial ore, all the rheodian African companies are in the early stages of development and therefore present enormous possibilities for the future, which cannot now be estimated."

In spite of all his preachings there were no Egyptians competent to do the work. The Egyptians are a very old race, weakened by oppression and centuries of intermarriage among themselves. Can they ever shoulder the burdens of statehood?
Canal Zone Suggested
There are also purely British considerations which would, however, probably be virtified if the Egyptians ever showed deinite and genuine ability to run their own affairs. Many Englishmen contend, for instance, that Britain, must hold the whole of Egypt if she is to defend the canal. Others disagree, however, and say that a canal zone, similar to our Canal Zone at Panama, would be sufficient.
There seems to be some merit in this last contention, although at present the area around the canal depends for its sweet water supply on the Nile, and this could be cut off if there were a hostile and independent Egypt. But it would be comparatively simple to construct fresh water reservoirs, thereby making the canal area independent of Egypt proper.
It seems to the outsider that some agreement similar to ones with Panama could be reached whereby the British would have the perpetual right to annex whatever portions of Ecquiptian territory were deemed necessary for defense purposes.

THE LESSON OF MOUND BAYOU
A RECENT news dispatch tells us that Mound Bayou," the Negro town in Mississippi where no white man has ever lived," is about to tear down the city jail for the very good reason that it has been empty for two years. There has not been a murder in the town for more than four years. As a result of this announcement, much comment has come from the white press, concerning the very unusual and Utopian civic condition of a community which is wholly composed of Negroes. One journal observes that "the record of Mound Bayou should serve as a rebuke to those benighted souls who still persist in believing that Negroes are incapable of good citizenship."
This is quite true, but the example set by Mound Bayou is more far-reaching than the mere proving of the right to American citizenship, a thing which intelligent and progressive members of the race have proved in thousands of ways since 1863. Stumbling through civic darkness, falling today to rise tomorrow, Negroes can well term themselves more than the average citizen in the American political arena. Their history has its dark chapters, but the narrative in its entirety is an encouraging one.
Mound Bayou, Mississippi, was founded nearly fifty years ago by Isaiah T. Montgomery, a Negro who had visions of what his people might do if unhampered by prejudicial daily contacts. This experiment, which started with a handful and now has a population of about 800, is a remarkable demonstration of the general trend of the Negro's mind when he is permitted to develop in a friendly and wholesome environment. It conclusively answers the question as to whether the Negro is able to work out his own social, political and economic problems without the guiding hand of the white man. Mound Bayou was founded in the midst of the highly developed civilization which exists in America and its success as a community is the story of the normal development and progress of a city founded and directed by black Americans of the average type who have had a fighting chance.
Those of us who have felt ashamed of the history of Liberia can take heart when we consider the success of Mound Bayou. The outstanding fact in the history of this community is that it is wholly the product of the hands and brains of Negroes who have struggled along with their problems without calling for the assistance of the white man who assists in order that he may later seize and enslave. Negroes who acknowledge defeat and lean heavily upon their white brothers very often find themselves swallowed and digested before they realize that they have been devoured.
One of the principles of racial development which is stressed the most by the Universal Negro Improvement Association is self-reliance, which not only develops strength of character and power of achievement, but safeguards ownership. Few people in the world have no desire to possess and dominate the thing which they have created and helped to build. The white man will continue to hold on to that which he has acquired, even though it was acquired with the assistance of his black brother.
The present-day Negro no longer views African nationalism as something remote and, perhaps, impossible of accomplishment. African affairs are so shaping themselves that it is plain to be seen that Nationalism is the only thing at the end of the road. The biggest job of those who are trying to keep their hold upon this rich and greatly coveted part of the world is to put off the day of reckoning. Africans "at home, and abroad" are bound to come into their own some day. It is the business of this generation of Negroes to prepare themselves—and their children to take possession of this great heritage, or any portion of it that may happily come to them.
Such examples as Mound Bayou prove that the Negro can use successfully all of the arts and sciences of a highly developed civilization to produce a city which has proved to be a model city. What the Negro can do on a small scale he can do on a large scale if he will only prepare for it. Africa must be developed. The white man believes that only he can do it. After he does it, Africa will be his unto eternity. Now is the time for the black man to take his stand, Africans at home and abroad have within them the latent ability to do all that any other race has done and they must never give up the fight for an opportunity to develop in their own home in their own way.
BURYING A DECEIT
NO NEGRO, however anxious he may be not to jeopardize the "good opinion" in which he is held by the overlord, need any longer offer the slightest apology for exhibiting a special interest in the land of Africa. Not so many years ago for a Negro to evince an interest in the Black Continent was to evoke decision from his fellows and Olympian laughter from the "superior". To express a yearning to be back among his black brethren across the seas was to stamp himself as a lunatic. To accept the Carreyan gospel was rank heresy. It was fashionable in Negro circles, among the so-called intelligentsia, to pity the poor, be delighted heathen." Such folks had "lost nothing in Africa." They were either American or British or French, and woe to the vulgar, gallant brat who suggested that a bond of blood joined them with the swarthy denizens of Somaliland. They thanked God that all of slavery was born one good—the inability on the part of anyone to identify them, beyond argument, with any surviving kin to be reunited! To have confronted the Boston grand damas over their noses with a geneological table would have been like letting loose prisoners of mice in a Dorcas meeting.
be developed by the white man for the white man. Baldwin would send the British unemployed to East Africa. North Africa must accommodate Italy's surplus population. King Alphonse would build a tunnel under the Serraids of Gibberla. European airplanes must survey Central Africa, while the diabolical Hertzog must keep South Africa safe for the white man.
We like to feel that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has been foremost in the last decade in holding up before black men's eyes the potentialities and possibilities of Africa. We realize with no little pride that it is Marcus Garvey who more than any other man or group of men has wrought the transformation in black men's outlook on Africa and things African. We rejoice to find that Negro men and women are no longer ashamed of their ethnic connections, but are developing a race consciousness and pride in themselves which will move mountains. And we earnestly entreat members of the group, while laboring diligently and improving themselves wherever they happen to be, never to take their minds off Mother Africa.
If colonial expansion in Africa is good for the white man, then nationhood in Africa must be indispensable to Negro progress.

AL OPINION OF THE NEGR
WE READ with amusement of the literary battle waged between the Honorable W. (Amalgamation) Du Bois and Mr. Lothrop (Bi-racial) Stoddard, a white Southerner who spends much precious-time trying to convince Negroes that he wishes for them the best gifts of the Gods, while he is impressing upon them the fact that, in his opinion, the earth is not really large enough properly to hold both Negroes and white folks. 'No two people could be better matched in a debate, for these two are certainly as far apart as the poles in their opinions on how to solve the "race problem."
The subject under discussion was "whether a Negro should seek cultural equality." We must confess our ignorance of the exact meaning of the subject announced. However, taking Messrs. Du Bois and Stoddard on their face value and judging, from past performances, we have no doubt of their sincerity. Each was trying to shape the opinion of his audience, which was said to number nearly 5,000. We do not know how long the debate lasted, but it is a rather safe guess Mr. Stoddard's time and energy were thrown to the winds, and, if he talked for the next hundred years to either an all Negro or mixed audience, his energy would always be wasted. There are thousands of white men and women quite as prejudiced as Mr. Stoddard, but they know that complete bi-racial separation while the races dwell together is an idiotic plan which human nature makes impossible.
It is said that the audience had several very hearty laughs at Mr. Stoddard's expense and that he remarked, that he did not see the joke. We suggest that he take a treatment to develop his sense of humor. All that he writes or says in regard to the relation of the races in America is funny when it isn't vicious. We feel ashamed of Mr. Du Bois. We always have been at a loss to know why any Negro would spend as much valuable time as he does trying to acquire something that is of no particular value at this period. The Negro needs to acquire education, money, economic prestige and a national home in which he may have a chance to develop normally. Having fortified himself in this manner, matters of a social nature will automatically adjust themselves. Talk, debates, however erudite, will never turn the trick.
GANDHI AND THE BONFIRES
Mahatma Gandhi has been arrested and released on bond, pending trial—for his part in a demonstration in Calcutta at which a public bonfire was made of foreign cloth. Boycott of foreign, especially British, cloth is part of the program in the anti-British campaign which received new impetus at the first year through resolutions passed by the Indian National Congress, as described in our issue of January 30. Gandhi's arrest was based on violation of a police ordinance prohibiting bonfires in public places. The boycott and the bonfires will continue, but Gandhi has promised that the latter shall from now on be private. Meanwhile, the Ruling Princes of the Indian States, assembled in the Chamber of Princes at Delhi, have passed a resolution depressing the drift of Nationalist leaders toward complete independence and opposing "any proposal for adjustment of equitable relations between the Indian States and British India unless such proposals proceed upon the initial basis of British connections." The Princes are British tools, who retain what power they have through British support. Though that power is not great, they know that an independent India would never tolerate for a moment their autocratic and reactionary ways over millions of subjects—The Nation.

"A FRIEND"
By J. L. Hirscher, in Rotary Reminder
"A friend is a person who is for you always, under all circumstances." He never investigates you.
"He likes you just as you are. He does not alter you."
"Whatever kind of coat you are wearing, whether you have on a dress suit or a blicky shirt with no collar, he thinks it's nice."
"He likes your moods, and enjoys your pessimism as much as your optimism."
"He likes your success, and you failure endures him pain."
"He is better than a lover, because he is never jealous."
"He wants nothing from you, except that you be yourself."
"There are many faithful wives and husbands; there are few friends."
"Friendship is the most admirable, amazing and rare article among human beings."
"Anybody stands by you when you are right; a friend stands by you when you are wrong."
"Like the shade of a great tree in the noonday heat in a friend."
"Like the home port, with your country's flag flying, after long journeys, in a friend."
"A friend in an impregnable estate of refuge in the stile of existence."
"It is he that keeps alive your faith in human nature that makes you believe that it is a good utruege."
"He is the artifact to despair, the elixir of hope, the tonic for depression, the medicine to cure sultade."
"You give to him without reluctance and borrow from him without embarrassment."
"When you are vigorous and spirted you like to take your pleasures with him; when you are sick, you want to see him; when you are dying, you want him near."

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. March 29-
The normal productivity of one lone
overwintering Female house mosquito
in a year is 159,875,000,000 offspring,
said, Dr. Thomas J. Headle, chief
ontologist of the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station, when he
addressed the annual convention of the
New Jersey Mosquito-Extermination
Association at the Hotel Traymore re-
cently.
However, Dr. Headlead said, only 29,937,500 of these should be used as nets, for they are the active, buzzing, biting, egg-laying females. The others are mere makes, which do not bite.
"These figures, which are based on the known rate of mosquito reproduction and which disregard infant mortality, indicate the urgent need for control measures that begin early in the season," she said.
"Here is no question out that the householder is often breeding millions of mosquitoes on his property without realising the fact. Property owners should search out and eliminate all mosquito-breeding on their lands and buildings. If conditions are so bad that they cannot control, them alone, aid should be sought from the local county mosquito commission."

"I am the Lord thy God, but then shall remember that I am also the God of all the earth. I have no favorite children. The Negro and the Hindi, the Ghanaian, Japanese, Nubian and Mexican are all my beloved children."
"Thou shalt remember that no civilization can rise above the level of its respect for and ideals of womanhood.
IV.
"Thou shalt remember thine own sins and build no prisons for revenge and punishment, but make thy courts clinics for the soul and thy fails hospitals for moral diseases.
V.
"Thou shalt remember that the end-product of industry is not goods or dividends, but the kind of men and women whose lives are molded by that industry.
VI.
"Thou shalt press on from political democracy toward industrial democracy, remembering that no man is good enough or wise enough to govern another man without his consent, and that, in addition to a living wage, every man craves a reasonable share in determining the conditions under which he labors.
VII.
"Thou shalt outlaw war and make no threatening features either with great navies or vast military preparations against thy neighbor.
VIII.
"Thou shalt honor men for character and service alone, and dishonor none because of race, color or previous condition of servitude.
IX.
"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor by malicious propaganda or colored news, or by calling him contemptuous names such as Dugo, Chink, Jap, Worz Nigger or Sheeny.
"Thou shalt remember that when thine own ancestors were savages and bacharists other men bought to them the saving and civilizing Christian Gospel. Now that thou are rich and prosperous, beware lest thou export to Asia and Africa only; thy science and efficiency, thy warships, goods and moving picture films, and forget to export the Christian message and the Christ-like spirit also."
Professor Would Modify "The Negro Menace" By Establishing Race Birth Quotas in the U. S.
BERKELEY, March 12—Conspicuous birth control to modify what he termed the inescapable to the whith race of increasing Negro population was advocated here tonight by Prof. Samuel H. Holmes, nationally known authority on sociogens and author of biological texta. Holmes, professor of zoology at the University of California, made the suggestion during the course of the annual faculty research lecture delivered prior to the university charter day exercises.
Asserting that the Negro population of the United States rapidly is approaching that of the white. Professor Holmes, declared that, contrary to opinions of many recent writers, the Negro population of the United States will present an increasing problem in years to come.
Suggesting that, in effect, child birth be placed on a quota basis, the quota to be determined by racial origin, Professor Holmes warned that only by some such method can Negroes and whites in this country continue to grow side by side as separate race entities without complete intermigration.
Ever-increasing Negro birth in this country will form an added incentive for nation-wide adoption of birth-control measures which will limit population of both Negroes and whites under a quota system comparable to that now limiting immigration from foreign countries," said Professor Holmes.
"In other words, in countries where incomers through birth are subjected to numerical restriction, it might prove feasible to introduce a quota system."
Professor Holmes said he believed diffusion of Negro blood by intermigration with white-waking place much more rapid than statistic dislocation. Any set of statistic tending to show the Negro race is increasing more slowly than the white is faulty, he insisted.
The colored birth rate is higher than the white, he declared, the Negro death rate is rapid, decreasing through acquired immunity to respiratory diseases, and the Negro population is rapidly overtaking that of the white.
Pointing out that primitive people have many times adopted restricitive measures on their own population by expelling children to die and by killing the aged and unfit, Professor Holmes concluded with the warning that "civilized man may be compelled to adopt means of preventing population growth if he" would escape the terrible penalties which overpopulation brings in its train." He cited China and India as countries where such conditions are prevalent.
Population of the Virgin Islands Declines 25. Per Cent. in 10 Years
(From the New York Times)
The task of writing an annual report about the Virgin Islands falls to the Governor, Captain Evans of the navy. There is interest in what he says about the "necubus of prohibition." Reports it had wrecked the缸 ram industry he denies. Alcohol for the purpose comes from Porto Rico, the United States and even St. Croix. The island of St. John supplies the bay leaves from which the essential oil is extracted. The "Virgin Islands are now exporting nearly three times as much bay rum as during the best years before the Americans purchased the islands." St. Thomas used to be plentifully supplied with spirits, wine and champagne. As a port of call where no one need go thirsty, it was popular with seafarers. Governor Evans states that "determined efforts have not been put into providing the illegal entry of liquor into the islands." Yet visitors do not find St. Thomas dry. He points out the difficulty of stopping run-running. Tortoise, a British island, is separated from St. John by only a narrow channel, and other British sources of supply are not far away. Recognizing this handicap, the Governor asserts that "the prefiction situation is most satisfactory." The population of the Virgin Islands steadily declines. In the ten years from 1817, when the United States acquired them, to 1827 there was a loss of 622. The total is now 20,728. But already, it has never high. It has practically disappeared through the improved methods of suppression. Morality is still "at a very low level," as a Competition commission reported in 1896. The percentage of Displaced is 582. To conclude, the age of most migrants has been neglected to a degree of the people are wreckedly poor. The Virgin Islands are surrounded.
and the people are better housed there will be no model communities.
will be no model communities.
When you land on the beach at Fredericksted, St. Croix, on a gala day the waiting throng seems to be solidly black, and is conspicuously rugged. We must be higher, without irrigation the sugar crop in St. Croix will continue to be uncertain. Cattle raising has done batter since the opening of the Porto Bican market. Experiments in fruit and vegetable growing have been successful, but regular transportation to the United States should be provided. Government aid is now given to the small farmers. The city of St. Thomas needs tourists, and therefore a new hotel. Governor Evans will provide a hotel and the tropical diversions. If one wants solitude and quiet, there is mountainous St. John, which is well wooded and primitive. The Governor evidently believes that the Virgin Island has great advantages as a winter resort.
HOMELY PHILOSOPHY
The habit of dawning, putting off, has mined the prospects of many a promising life. A moment longer, in sleep, another yawn, another dale dream, and lol the hour strikes, the door closes and one stands beaten, baffled and ashamed, self-confessed and self-confessed. Boots's slogan—"Do Instantly, in process, I adopt it and thus go forward the lead to achievement." COMPARTMENTS
Nothing is strange and more difficult to compare. With shoes and stilettos men move lustily and sleep, yet sitting, stairs, nothing pertains comprehensively—George Duggan Johnson.

MARCUS GARVEY
President-General
KINGSTON, JAMAICA, B. W. I.
NEW DELHI, India, March 21. Because discussion of the policy behind numerous arrests yesterday of Communists would be detrimental to public safety, the Governor General today disallowed a motion by Pundit Motilal Nehru, Nationalist leader, for adjournment of the Legislative Assembly to permit discussion of the policy. This announcement was made in the Assembly today by V. Patel, president.
Alleged Communists were arrested in large numbers by police in sudden raids at Calcutta, Bombay and Poona, and masses of literature described as seditious were seized. Members of the Youth League were singled out, and arrests, including its chief, Dhunidai Thegado, former president, of the Trades Union Congress. He was charged with "waging war against the King."
An atmosphere of subdued but tense excitement prevailed when the Assembly gathered today. Last evening the government had adjourned the sitting by, applying closure when the opposition shouted down Sir George Shuster, finance member of the Executive Council. President Patel declared that "we have not had such an experience for four" years, "and the Nationalist member retorted. "We have had a lesson from the other side, only today."
Today Mogilal Néhru asked for information on the arrests of Communists and the searches made by the police. J. Crerar, home member of the Executive Council, replied there had been thirty-one arrests of "persons conspiring to promote the objects of the Communist International, whose objects, included support of organizations and newspapers opposing the present system of government."
The home member expressed the hope that the Assembly would approve the government's policy of trying the conspirators under ordinary laws. The motion-for adjournment was then put by Mottal Nehru and was allowed by the president after several speeches, by opposition members, though it was opposed by Crear and others. Later, the announcement of
hine bars, charged with conspiracy and waging war against the King. Daily this morning, officers of the Original Infantrymen Department raised and searched the headquarters of labor organizations and the Youth League. At 2 o'clock, just before daybreak, British Indian infantry and armed police were mobilized and strategically stationed as a precaution against disorders, but, for one day at least, the city remained calm.
While the Bombay arrests were being made, police at Poona arrested Dhundira Jahengdi, former president of the Indian Trade Union Congress. There, as in Bombay, the secret was so well kept that honorary magistrates had no inking what was being planned for did the soldiers have any warning when they were called out.
20,000 Mill Workers Strike
BOMBAY, March 20.—When news of the Communist raids reached the Tata mills at Dadar, north of Bombay, the 20,000 workmen struck, walking out in a body. Tense, excitement prevails here.
Calcutta Leaders Taken
CALCUTTA, March 20—Eight labor leaders were arrested here in a spectacular police drive against Communists. Among places searched were the headquarters of the Bengal Peasant Workers party, the offices of the Bengal, Trade Union Federation and the Young Comrades League. Among those arrested were the secretary of the Bengal Trade Union Federation, the vice-president and secretary of the Calcutta Scavengers' Union and the secretary of the Jute Workers' Union. Police curled away masses of correspondence, books and pamphlets, which they assert contain inflammable Communist contents.
Police Net Drags Poona
POLICE Net Drags Poona
POONA, March 20.—Hundreds of police searched the branches of the Youth League here today and arrested the Socialist leader, Dhundiraj. Thegad, on charges of waging war against the King.
A quantity of Communist and other literature was seized.
Law Student a Prisoner
LAW STUDENT A PRINCESS
'ALLAHABAD, March 20. — Puran Chauduri Joshi, secretary of the United Provinces · Workers Peasants party, was arrested at Allahabad today in the police drive against agitators. Joshi was studying for his final law examination at, Allahabad University and was living in one of the university hotels. His room was searched and
When we give them the names of the women who are the most important people in the community, young women as well as men, we should not use their names at all. Miss Con declared that if Negro women cannot be given their names unless they should pretend to have our names appear in the newspaper as "black Claire Con." The incident was the basis of a discussion which proved the most interesting one in the state meeting. Among the colored women taking part in the discussion were Mrs. H. L. McCrory,
Communist literature was found and seized by the police. Arrests took place in other cities in the United Provinces. At Lucknow, Chaudurl Dharamyrir Singh, Nationalist member of the United Provinces Legislative Council, was arrested and charged, under Section 121 of the Indian Penal Code, with "waging war against the King."
General Strike Feared
NEW DELHI, March 20.—The reports received in the evening of arrests of Communists also effected in Allahabad, Lucknow and other towns, made it appear as if concerted action had been taken under the Central Government's order. It is suggested that the arrests were made in anticipation of Communist attempts to stir up another general strike in Bombay mills. It is noteworthy that the government public safety bill, which enlarges government powers in dealing with Communists and agitators, is to be discussed again in the House of Assembly here this week. The bill, which provides for deportation of Communists not British subjects or natives of India, was rejected by 24 to 9 on the first vote in February.
Altogether, well over a hundred warrants were issued. Reports from different points late tonight showed that warrants and searches were still being executed. The arrests cover a territory a thousand miles wide. Other raids and arrests were made in Allahabad, Lucknow and Lahora.
The government coup has caused intense-excitement throughout India.
SAVANNAH, Ga., March 22.—A prizo of a hundred dollars, offered by Col. Sigo Myers for the best essay on how to improve the City of Savannah, has just been awarded to Benjamin F. Hubert, colored, president of the Georgian Industrial College, located here. The award was made by a number of prominent citizens, including Mayor Saussy.

No hemos tenido ningun mensaje del Hon. Marcos Garvey, Presidente General de la U. N. L. A., en tales circunstancias, el siguiente extracto de un discurso suyo pronunciado en el Madison Square Garden, New York City, el domingo, Marzo 16, 1924, se presenta en esta ocasión para una inteligente interpretación de parte de los lectores del "Negro World."
Desde el punto de vista y agrupación de nuestro idealismo, nosotros tenemos la creencia de que ningun hombre blanco es lo bastante bueno para governor al hombre negro: y ningun humbro negro es lo suficiente bueno para hacer lo propio con el blanco y así mantenemos nuestra opinión en cuanto a las demas razas y gentes del orbe. Nadie a la voidad se siente justificado de que el otro, extranjero en raza, as lo bastante bueno para governor o establecer reglas con la exclusion de los derechos raciales de natividad. Nosotros mal que bien por lo tanto tenemos que enfrentarnos con la cuestión de las razas superiores e inferiores. En el alglo XX y su civilización no hay razas superiores ni inferiores. Hay si razas atrasadas. En lo que-toca al punto humano de esta cuestión, todos los hombres son iguales, y especialmente cuando la gente es lo bastante inteligente para saber lo que realmente desean.
En la actualidad los pueblos saben lo que desean y es LIBER TAD. Cuando un pueblo llega a tener debida comprension de lo que desea a y tener conciencia de cuando deba ser libre, entonces esos pueblos vienen a ser iguales a los demas dentro del alto concepto en que los hombres todos son llamados a dirigir sus propios asuntos por si propio, de una manera directa y responsable. Es una verdad que económica y cientificamente ciertas razas son mas progresivas que otras: mas esto no implica superioridad. El que el Anglo Sajon diga que es superior porque ha introducido mas submarinos para destruir vidas, o que el Teleton lo sea porque ha compuesto un gas liquido para sobrepujar a los otros en arte de la matanza, y que el negro sea considerado inferior porque no haya alcanzado adelanto en esa dirección como es como mismo y por consiguiente a las razas asi trasadas que se acojan al precepto biblico "No matarras" tal como fue el divino mandato que establece el standard moral del hombre real. No hay superioridad racial en una raza que económicamente monopoliza y retiene todo lo que tiende al sostenimiento de la vida, y así causando la infección y desgracia de otros: porque nuestro mas alto proposito seria amar y cuidad por los demas, y compartir con los otras las cosas que nuestros Padre Celestial ha puesto en comun a nuestra disposición; y aun en este particular los africanos-sobrepasan en generosidad, porque ellos dan de coner a su hermano y comparten con el mismo el producto de sus tierra.
La idea de superioridad racial es cuestionable; sinembargo, tenemos que admitir que, bajo el punto de vista del hombre blanco, el secre superior al resto de nosotros, mas esa clase de superioridad es inhumana y peligrosa para que sea peranentemente provechosa. *Tal superioridad fue alcanzada por otras razas anteriforme y así lo fue por nuestra raza propria, cuando nos orgullecan con la maravillosa civilización que tuvimos en las riberes del Nilo, cuando otras razas estaban agrupandose en las tinteblas; mas por nuestros desafueros, fracasamientos, tal como les sucedería a otra razas contemporaneas. La civilización solamente puede tener asiento cuando hayamos alcanzado el punto máximo, cuando seamos cada cual el guardian del otro, o lo que es lo mismo, cuando nos sintamos en estado de puridad para vivir y dejar que los-otros vivan.
No permitais que el hombre negro se crea que tiene la exclusiva de vivir y tener derechos en el mundo, y los otros hombres ningun otro derecho; y no permitais tampoco que el hombre blanco se comporte de la misma manera. El mundo es una propiedad del todo humano, y todos y cada una de las secciones de este todo tienen perfectísimo derecho a una parte. El negro reclama ahora su parte, y lo reclama en terminos no comprometedores.
La Sociedad Negra Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza (U. N. I. A.) representa las aspiraciones y esperanzas del negro despierto. Nuestro deso es por un sitio en el mundo; no perturbar la tranquilidad de otros hombres, sino descargar nuestro peso y descansar nuestras debiles espaldas y pies en las riberas del "Negro," y canar nuestros canciones y entonar nuestros híimos al Dios de Etiopia. Si, necesitamos descansar del trabajo que hemos sostenido por siglos; descanso de libertad politica, descanso para que nos seamos molestados ni social ni económica ni industrialmente, que se nos deje en paz, libre y sin molestias; que se nos deje descansar de los linchamientos y quemaduras: que se nos deje descansar por último de todo prejuicio y de los distingues humillante de que venimos siendo victimas.

Ahora enfermo, recluso, separado de los hombres, triste en el seno de la ciudad tumultosa, recibe el premio Nobel. Le piden datos para biografía, pero el no puede recibir a los periodistas y se limita a decrier he pensado, y a fijar dos o tres fefas tu en derrotero espiritual, el Colegio de Francia donde se desarrollo su acción, la Academia Francesa, la Academia Sueca que acaba de coronarle. Un exquisito poeta pernano sola decir, las glorias y los bienes de la vida o nunca llegan para nosotros o nos legan tarde. Así, esta suprema consagración al falso prentecido. Junto a el, frente a el, otros grandes nombres figuran, emulos o rivales que parecen destinados a. obscurecerle, Max Scheler, el nuevo Schelling aleman muerto recientemente; Husseri, tan admirado en las escuelas espanolas; Bettrand Russell, poderoso agitador de ideas en Inglaterra.
Desde 1889, año en que publico el joven profesor Bergson su tesis doctoral sobre los datos inmediatos de la conciencia empeso a ser conciido y leido. Enseñó en licidos, en Universidades de provincia, en un colegio parisino y sus discipulos le seguían aparventorizados. Ante sus miradas aparventorizados un renovador y un revelador. Hacia 1905, contestando a una encuestra escritores mozos decian que la influencia de M. Bergson sobre las nuevas generaciones podian emparejarse a la de Descartes sobre Malebranche, a la de Hume,<Kant. Despertaba a los espiritus del suelo dogmático, les libertara de un estrecho y vulgar positivismo. Era ya conductor, señor y maestro, metafísico y poeta. `efe en el más alto sentido del término. Al entusiasmo de los jóvenes se oponia, como contraresto, el escepticismo de algunos críticos, de Emile Faguet, tan sutil en el análisis, el cual declaraba que había leido y reledo los libros-del señor Bergson, y que no comprendía ni una palabra de ellos; de Remy de Gourmont para quien el bersonismo erum an accidente brillante destinado a pasar sin dejar huella.
Entre tanto, la reputación del filosofo iba creciendo y esta destinada a culminar. Atraja a un público cada día más vasto su explicación insinuante y elegante en que se maridaban de ingeniosisima manera razones e imágenes. Pronto le rodear las-mujeres, como en 1886 al alegante Monsieur Caro, olvidado en nuestro tiempo. Bergson, tan encerupiloso en su esfuerzo, tan severo consigo misso, sufria de este éxito mundano.
Para asistir a uno de sus cursus el año de 1906 era necesario ocupar un sito en el antifitacro con una hora de anticipación. Alli estaba entonces, ocupando la catedra, el respetable Monsieur Paul Leroy Beaulieu, economista muy distinguido, envejecido en la enseñanza, autor de tratados clásicos. Desencantado, meditando sin duda en la miseria de nuestros ambiciones, el vicio maestro contemplaba la irrupción de disciplinos que no iban a escucharle. Al lado de estos figuraban asiduos oyentes, como-George Sorel, doctor del sindicalismo francés, y Charles Peguy, inspirado de un selecto grupo de escritores. No faltaban sirvientes de libra que ocupaban el lugar destinado a señoras refinadas para las cuales el bergsonismo estaba a la moda.
De las diversas regiones aspiraban a seguirle dos defensores de teorias extremas, los modernistas que ponian su conato en renovar la Iglesia Católica, los sindicalistas dirigidos por Sorel que habia establecido su relación entre le ELANT VITAL bergsoniano y el desarrollo improvisible del proletario. Se le consultaba sobre diversos asuntos como a Spencer. Creo que nada inquetaba más al filosofo que esta continua exaltación. En vano se separaba de admiradores turbulentos, mostraba en su gabinete de estudio de Autentil gran austeridar. Un brillante cronista llega a escribir que Paris se sentía 'atraido', en su actividad frivolía y soiente, no tanto por el tango, coño por las lecciones de M. Bergson.

A partir de la libra compuesta la admiración de Bergson. Se la admira siempre y se la les mustes. Entre las habilidades más importantes es fuerza para palir, diapositas le laqe. Su truja llega a ser injunto, sirve una austeridad y nobella. De el se supera el libro que no llega a a publicar. su Moral. Hace algunos años, después de una comida en "France-Amerique", ilustre institución de acercamiento entre Francia y los continentes americanos, le rodea en guiplo de admiradores. No veo claro en moral, nos dosi es nooche, con su sinceridad, su modesta y su encluze habituales, y declarar que habia leído en los últimos años muchismos libros sobre política y religión, sobre el socialismo, sobre las costumbres de los pueblos. El no ofrecen a quienes aspiran a ser sus disciplinos un sistema cerrado y definitivo, sino soluciones parciales, el examen riguros de problemas particulares. En un pequeño volumen reciente consagrado a las teorias de Einstein se finta explicar su posición filosófica ante el problema de la relatividad y juega conformlas y ecuaciones mostrando esa alta capacidad para los estudios matemáticos que sorprendido en el colegio a uno de sus profesores prefectos.
Fragil es la gloria humana, y, en este caso, hemos podido observar que algunos diarios francéses han puesto sordina en sus elogios. L'Action Francaise ha llegado a escribir que el matísico de la intuición es muy estimado en los pueblos escandinavos. El critico de Le Tempes se lamenta de que no se hubiera dedicado el filosofo a la novela poque en este genero habria superadda a Proust. La Sorbona se separa del bergsonismo. El intelectuismo renace, el tomisimo conquista disciplos y sera la moda de maniana. En veinte años ha sufrido eclipse que sera sin duda provisorio una podera construcción filosofica. Pero nadie se atreve a dudar de que Bergson es uno de los más grandes filosofos de nuestra epoca y de todas las epocas, inspirader y caudillo del renacimiento idealista, de la cruzada filosofica contra la Ciencia con mayuscula que erigia un nuevo, dogmatísimo intolerante.

In 1898 II. was summoned that all the officers stationed in the temple had been captured deformed. After the multiplication, or de-reaction, the pieces were thrown by Thothmee retailers into an abandoned quarry near by.
Over this quarry the rain and winds of centuries have brought sand and mud.
Finally, thirty-five years ago, when the temple was first cleared, all the debris from it was piled together. The expedition has been employing as many as 700 Egyptian laborers at a time the task of retaining the sand of the temple was still being done about 100,000 tons of rubbish, have been removed.
As a result of the reassembling of the fragment it is possible to see how rews of red granite statues and sphinxes had been shattered into thousands of bits and dumped, poll mill into the quarry. Since all are of the same material, the task of goring them out has been extremely laborious.
The fitting together of pieces, some of them no bigger than finger tip size, was required to goring them out required no little ingenuity and innite patience. A standing statue from the quarry is now in the Calico Museum.
The expedition has practically finished putting together the remains of two granite sphinxes, two -Kelding statues and fragments of three other pieces of sculpture, the parts of which lay, near the surface and were removed to Europe a century ago. While all this granite sculpture was of the best workmanship of its period and must have been most imposing sculptures, the condition and archaeological importance the outstanding object is unique limestone sphinx practically intact with its coloring still brilliant. This displays in most surprising manner Queen Hatshepsut's revival of the archeal type of sphinx known by the famous examples from Tania.

FOR THE EDITOR OF THE NEGRO WEEK
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
purchase this wonderful "paper which
you and the staff are so able putting
out. It is in the best Negro
womenly we have in all America,
because it prints only the best, worth-
while prints of all the world as it
tains to Negroes in general. You
editorialists are independent
without learning to any partici-
pial jury. This paper and the lead-
ers of the U. N. A. are educating
the members and the public. Surely
the race will soon see that the time
has come for us to establish ourselves
in the Motherland.
Pray let the work continue until the
principles of the Universal Negro
Improvement Association become a
reality in our God-given soil, and we
will possess a black, stable government
in the land of the free. Africa.
DANIEL W. HUDSON.
New York, N. Y.
To the Editor of The Negro World:
It is a true and familiar saying that
"Thieves worry when another is carrying
the bag." Such a saying, claims
our attention when we read of the
white man's interest in 'safeguarding'
the Negroes from Carvey's "scheme to
steal their money." It is to laugh!
with the palace foe, specifically for his
richment and power, pretending to be
so solicitous of our protection to save
us from further exploitation.
Let them stop stalling justice and honesty from the Negro, and we can surely handle the situation from there on. In the United States we have paid taxes for over sixty years without equal representation in the nation's political affairs; we have graduated from the same schools, colleges and universities, without equal recognition in the business and industrial life of the nation; we have trained our families in morality, religion and culture commensurate with other races, and yet no social justice is accorded us—who is stalling or withholding from us these rights? In Haiti the politiclave has promised liberty and independence only to obtain a better-on-
I will be what I will to be.

Women Control 41 Per Cent
Of U.S. Individual Wealth
The expression, "The woman pays"
some day may be true literally—
because the man can't.
Women control 41 per cent of the individual wealth of the United States and are rapidly increasing their importance in the financial markets, according to a statistical survey made by the investment banking house of Lawrence Stern & Co.
They outnumber men as shareholders in the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, United States Steel Corporation, Pennsylvania Railroad, Westinghouse Air Brick Company and the National Blast Company. They did not in any of these instances hold a majority of the stock, but constitute more than half of the shareholding.
Between 35 and 40 per cent of the customers in the list of large investment houses are women. The percentage is continually increasing. A prominent New York Stock Exchange firm has opened a branch office exclusively for women, with no men permitted except two "quotation boys."
The Federal income tax reports of
1926 were studied, and it was found
that for that year 139 paid
taxes on incomes in excess of $500,000,
as against 123 men. That year forty-
four women and forty-two men*paid
taxes on incomes of $1,800,000 or more.
On incomes of more than $190,000,
women reported a total of $484,794,000
and men* $404,802,000.

"The counsel has not put the question rather dramatized." he said, "not to be just about right. All persons, not only French Canadians, who have entered the country since June 8, 1922, the date of the first quota regulation, and cannot produce the proper entry papers, will be liable to expulsion."
Commissioner Landis said a distinction would be made between those who try to help and those who try to hinder. Persons who leave before being deported will be examined at the border for immediate re-entry, there being no quota regulation for born Canadians, even though the manner of first entry was technically illegal. Those against whom deportation warrants have to be issued, however, Landis said, will never be allowed to enter the country again.

When he becomes president, he compares the Federal Office, to that the question could not be settled in a day or two, because of its social and economic complications. He said, however, the government would seek an adjustment whenever the opportunity presented itself.
Both houses of the Diet passed a new and higher tariff schedule a number. The schedule will affect principally pine, pad, spruce and hemlock, most of which comes from the American Northwest. It is expected to increase revenue in this country by about $2,848,006. The effect American consumers lumber includes of about $40,000,000 annually. The bill was opposed strenuously by Japanese consumers and American importers.
