Anticipating an Era Of Unparalleled Progress for Race Urges Loyalty, Watchfulness, Courage Fellowmen of the Negro Race, Greeting: It is pleasing for me to report that we have reached another milestone in our journey toward African redemption. On the 30th of March we launched at Kingston, Jamaica, the first of the line of our daily newspapers to be published all over the world in the interest of our race. As you are aware, we have for some time promised that we would start our daily paper, "The Blackman." Owing to certain difficulties we were unable to start the paper on the first of January, as originally contemplated, but with the help and co-operation of those who collected funds for the paper we were able on the 30th of March to present the first issue to the world. The pleasure is that at 6 a.m. on the morning of the 30th there was not an available copy of the paper in Kingston for sale. The first print of twelve thousand copies was gobbled up in a half hour, and if we had printed one hundred thousand copies more for the first issue there would not have been a copy left by mid-day. This circulation was only for Kingston, to say nothing of the other parts of the island where people were clamoring for papers. We were unable to supply our foreign agents with the first issue. This marks a phenomenal epoch in the history of journalism. In the history of this country there was never such interest paid to any newspaper. That proves that the Negro has awakened to the full consciousness of his duty and responsibility. For the edification of those who were unable to secure a copy of the first issue of "The Blackman" I am here reproducing my front page article setting out the paper's policies. This, I hope, will satisfy those to whom we were unable to send copies direct: Marcus Garvey Sounds Keynote in New Movement to Aid Negro Race A New Era for Negro People of the World-Jamaica Can Lead the Way to Racial Fellowship Fellowmen of the Negro Race and Friends, Greeting: Today marks a new epoch in the history of the Negro race, in that we have now launched the first of a line of daily newspapers to be published in every civilized and populous center of the world where our race lives or comes in contact with the other races, directly or indirectly. It is our intention within the next ten years to have a Daily paper published, under our control, in such cities as New York, Chicago, London, Paris, Rome, Cagetown, South Africa; Nigeria, West Africa, and every important island of the West Indies for the Preparations Under Way for Greatest Convention of Negroes Since Dawn of Creation PRESIDENT-GENERAL SOUNDS A CLARION CALL TO NEGROES EVERYWHERE "The Blackman," Official Mouthpiece of U. N. I. A., Sold Out on First Publication—Pioneer in Its Field—To Blaze the Trail in the Fight for Negro Freedom purpose of creating and maintaining that sentiment that will tend to bring about a peaceful and proper solution of our worldwide race problems. RACE TOLERANCE AND GOODWILL. In Jamaica, where the first of the lino of daily newspapers is to be established, we have, fortunately, a kind of common understanding between the races. This is fortunate, and in this respect we think Jamaica can be a model in racial tolerance and goodwill. We do hope that at no time shall there be any strife between the races in Jamaica—in fact, no one anticipates it, because here we have worked side by side for centuries and have grown in each other's confidence, but the time has come when the Negro, like every other race, must seek to promote his own interest and establish himself as a part of the world's growing prosperity. It is for that reason that "The Blackman" takes its stand in the community without offense any race, to any party or institution. We shall always maintain, to the best of our ability, the most honest friendship with those who are disposed to be our friends. We shall lose no opportunity, however, in dealing as severely as possible with our enemies whosoever they may be. We anticipate no trouble from any quarter. We shall always respect the law and teach strict obedience to the Constitution. We shall also assist the government at all times in doing the best possible good for the country and the people. We want Jamaica to stand out as a beacon of race tolerance and fellowship and goodwill. One could work for no nobler cause. It is natural to expect, however, that in every community we will have little-minded men and women who will seek to prevent any good by way of reform. We shall always be ready to deal with such persons when they show themselves. OFFICIAL MOUTHPIECE OF PEOPLE "The Blackman" may be regarded as the official mouthpiece of the Negro people. We shall unhestitatingly at all times express the opinion of the Negro on all questions affecting him. We shall not bow not oringe before any power, caring not how superior and powerful. We shall stand on the principles of righteousness and fight hard until the end is gained. We feel that great good can be done by statements of fact and the upholding of truth always, and we shall ever stand on such principles. SALUTE ALL MANKIND In making our bow we salute all mankind in fellowship and good grace. We promise to grow with the times, and we feel sure that this the elder sister of our daily journals shall live to see universal sisterhood of daily newspapers established for the Negro as we have outlined. The first issue of the paper and the succeeding issues for another two or three months will be diminutive in size, as we have not yet completely assembled our printing plant, but we feel sure that within another few months when our linotypes and other heavier machinery have arrived and have been erected our paper will take second place to none as a first-class daily journal. We promise to give you from time to time the best in us, and we shall expect from you a similar return. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be, Your obedient servant, MARCUS GARVEY; Editor-in-Chief. Edelweis Park, Cross Roads, St. Andrew, Jamaica, B. W. I. March 30, 1929. MARCUS GARVEY; Editor-in-Chief. Policy of Paper Defined As per above, the policy of "The Blackman" is well defined. We hope that universally our people will support the Universal Negro Improvement Association so that we may be able to establish similar daily papers in the centers where we think sentiment ought to be created for the good and welfare of our race. Let us all in this direction hew to the line and success will surely visit us. Great Convention Preparation I have great pleasure again in stating that the preparation made at this end for the forthcoming convention is something wonderful. We are anticipating the greatest assemblage of Negroes ever brought together in the history of the world. Every branch, chapter, division and member of the organization is asked to contribute his and her bit towards making the entire convention a success. We can do this by meeting our obligations in paying our assessment tax and dues and giving what contribution we can to the great cause. Let us rally in this direction so that, as promised, 1929 will prove to be the biggest year in our history. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be Your cbedient servant Maren Sanej LIBERTY HALL, NEW YORK, Sunday Night, April 4—A large crowd listened to an interesting program here tonight on the occasion of the weekly mass meeting of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, held under the auspices of the Garvey Club. Mrs. I. McCartney, lady vice-president, occupied the chair, while Hon. M. L. T. De Mena, Assistant International Organizer, and other local officers helped to make SECRETARIAL Lincoln School 201-269 West 125th St. NYC.

The first selection was by Prof. Hassellis Band, followed by an anthology by the choir "Gipria in Ex- colonia." Colonel J. Bellamy rendered a reading which was very suitable for the occasion. He also brought greet- ing from the Newark Division. A duet was also rendered by Mendice Boyne and Thomas, followed by a song by the Liberty Hall Famous Seven. The chathildy, Mrs. L. McCarney, greeted her audience in a belittling manner and expressed her pleasure in seeing the U. A. Legions heading the parade of the corntorse laying of Rev. Mr. Campbell, who had invited them to take a part in their ceremony, and Motor-Coys who were present. She was also pleased to hear of those who took part in the meetings of the Newark and Brooklyn Divisions, thus showing the spirit of co-operation and racial activity on the part of the awakened Negro. MME. M. L. T. D.MENA'S ADDRESS Mme. M. L. T. D.Mena' Assistant International Organizer of the Uni- ternal Negro Improvement Association, spoke befittingly for the occasion in her usual forceful, riveling and entrenching style, urging upon her hearers the need for greater co-operation, more unity, and more whole-hearted service and devotion to the cause. She took occasion to remind hearers that the time was at hand when faith would be tested like gold in a crucible is tried in the refiner'a fire, and only the few can stand the acid test. I am again taking the opportunity of inviting you for the benefit of generations to come, to enlist and join with me in attending the evening high schools in further preparing yourself along all lines of material exigence, location at this time, portraits to us. I will do you good to enlist yourself. In order to back up the program of Garveyism we have got to measure up with the other races in the fields of art, science, commerce, astronomy and such that this era calls for. I happen to be one of those who attended the cornerstone laying of Row. Mr. Campbell's church this afternoon and heard Mayor Walker during his discourse state that he had more to do with the physical life of life, which means the protection and preservation of himself and his porosity than with the spiritual side. As a member of the first U. K. Legions of New York, one whom you have invested with the power to represent the people of the city, am inviting you to join the ranks under the leadership of Bellamy and Leight.-Col. Robinson, able leaders and commanders of this unit. For centuries this black man has been sitting by the wayside asleep while other nations have been busy along the lines of self-preservation by exploiting the weaker nations and races of their God given rights and homeland. But after a while there came along another black man, and got entering upon the stage of manhood seeing the state of his race, he grasped the roins of leadership. He has proven to the world that his doctrine has not shown light to his people alone, but he has successfully and uncompromisibly awakened the minds of humanity and the many millions of those who follow the precepts of Carvayism. Might it right. History shall record the many fiercest segregations, lynchings and burnings and the many brutal atrocities heaped upon my race and kind. Hold the fort, for we are coming, sing those across the seas. We are not alone in the fight for the survival of the fittest. We shall build monuments, to the genius of the age and to the liberator of the Negro peoples of the world. MRS. E. CAPERS, LADY PRESIDENT Members and friends of this great movement, I am 'gled to be with you again. The time has come when we will be called into the churches to perforate the laying and public of Gurgesham. Littv Garvey gp and he will draw all men to him. Stick to Garvey and he will deliver to us the goods. Do not be a traitor to the program that means your preservation and that of our community. Then move out of the way and go your way. We want no one to disgorge our policy but him. The conversation is at hand, when he shall dictate the policies of the black man. Governments have segregated us, hold us in slavery, all these years and robbed us of Mother Africa. We find that it will take a government of the black man to put a stop to all these atrocities heaped upon us by other races and nations. Fellow-men of Africa, a while ago my spirit rosa as I heard, the officer of the Legions addressing you. As a young man m. h. has caught the spirit of nationalism and the birth of a new nation. We shall ambrace the program of nationalism for the redemption of our Motherland, Africa, and erect a government to work out our own destiny, as other races have done, for their preservation and safety. The decision reached at the convention will be written by the historian. We should consider a final decision for the betterment of our race. I am ashamed to be called anything but an African, for I am of African descent. The new Negro must study the law of nature. You are a part of God, of the whole universe, which makes us masters of ourselves. REV. BARRETT I am a fisherman of Monroo street, to catch old and young and put into their minds something that will do them good. As I study the man called Garvey, and also study the white man's writings that Ethiopia shall stretch out her hands unto God, and princes shall come out of Egypt, I find that the teachings of the Hon. Marcus Garvey are for the purpose of making you a new creature. I believe in justice, and I believe in all members' love to Garvey for the redemption of Africa. We shall help more of the constitution, and shall come into the land of our fathers and into the land of safety. Writes Encouraging Word to Kinckle Jones—Economic Independence Necessary to Good Citizenship, Says President The following letter, dated April 1, has been received by Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, from President Herbert Hoover: "Dear Mr. Jones: The first step toward being a good citizen is to achieve economic independence. It is the soil in which self respect takes root, and from which may then grow all the moral and spiritual enrichments of life. The work of the National Urban League to train Negroes in the city to find new lines of occupation is fundamental to the progress of the race which you succeed in this undertaking." (Signed) HERIENT JOOVER" this letter was received by Mr. Lloyd following the receipt by Mr. Lloyd of the annual report of the league for work done in 1925 and a program of the National Urban League Conference which is converting this week in Louisville, Kentucky, with representatives from nearly fifty cities in which the league is conducting activities or co-operating in the promotion of social service programs. LAWRENCEVILLE, Va., April 1. Howard University staged a comeback from its defeat by Virginia State to win in a twelve-hitting battle from St. Paul with a score of 13-12. While the team showed improvement over its performance against State, errors were still numerous and only its fighting determination emanated them to take the victory. In both games Coach Purr has been testing out new material, several of the frogmen showing splendid form in other positions. It was also necessary to shift players both in the field and in the batting order in an effort to determine in which position they were strongest. ATLANTA, Ga. April 18—Megan in residence at North Carolina colleges have united in a desire to improve social and educational conditions and are paying in whole or in part the salaries of twenty-one social workers, according to Lieutenant Lawrence A. Oxley, Director of the Division of Negro Work of the North Carolina State Board of Charities and Public Welfare, who delivered a series of three lectures on rural community work at the Atlanta School of Social Work. During the last two years colored people have raised for this purpose more than $25,000 to supplement funds appropriated by the counties. This has developed a new attitude on the part of white people and has resulted in fine inter-racial co-operation. "Representatives of both races meet together to discuss the problems of the colored people and to plan for their solution," said Mr. Oxley. "It marks a new departure for colored people to send a delegation of leaders to the county superintendent of public welfare to ask what the colored people can do to assist him—a marked change from the days when Negroes went to the court-house only when summoned as prisoners or witnesses. In one county they raised $1,000 and sent a delegation to present it to the county board, with the request that it be used for the good of the county." The im pression made in its own counties is a new effort to remain neglected and outside the benefits of the community, but that they are willing to shoulder their share of responsibility for community development. In consequence, the relationships between the races have been markedly improved." Mr. Oxlxy made it clear that the colored "group cannot know what it can get till Pikemakes its needs known to the proper authorities. "Amnon many such gains, in North Carolina, he said, have been the organization of Boy Scouts, Campfire Girls and American Legion posts, adjusted compensation policies, free transportation to aid veterans, mothers' aid pensions and the like. The State conducts numerous clinics and colored children are admitted to all of them, while the provisions for colored children at the county homes are, the same as those for the whites. Says It Is Unfair to Embarrass New Members In a telegram to Speaker Longworth Congressman La. Guardia, suggest placing Congressman DePriest of Chicago next to his own office after other members have filed protest refusing to have Mr. DePriest in an office next to the office. Congressman La. Guardia's telegram follows: "Hon. Nicholas Longworth, Hon. Scholars Longworth. Hon. Scholars Longworth. House of Representatives. "Washington, D. C.: "Have not looked in press agitation among some members against allotment office to our colleague, the gentleman, to have him sent to be glad to have him sent to my office. It is manifestly unfair to embauche a new member and believe it is our duty to assist new members rather than humiliate them. (Sgd.) F. H. LA GUARDIA, M. C."

THE NEGRO WORLD Business Department. 265 Lexus Ave. New York City. "The Color Bar Act is one of the biggest blasts" on the South African Constitution," said the Rev. Allan Lee general secretary of the Western Methodist Church of South Africa, Mission Branch, in an address at the Metropolitan Hall recently. Mr. Lee has just returned from an extensive tour of the missions in Southern and Central Africa, and he said that the present position of the race question was a challenge to Christian men and women, and one that could not be ignored without detriment to both white and black. "Tracial antipathy is more marked today than it was twenty-five years ago, he continued." Political adjustment is not in favor of the native. White Christianity is on its trial in South Africa, and we fear, to think what the position will be in fifty years time unless the churches awake. "It has been estimated that in fifty years' time the white people in the Union will number 4,000,000, while the non-Europeans will be about 19,000,000. "Today there are 30,000,000 pagans in equatorial Africa, and my recent experience shows me that Central Africa is becoming commercialized before it is being Christianized. Cotton is counted for more than a tribe's character, and with a shipload of coffee anything can be done." Mr. Lee pleaded for more support for the missions. Last year, by all churches, some 2,000,000 natives had been converted to Christianity, and as far as the Wesleyan Methodist funds were concerned, the natives had given more money for missionary work than had the Europeans. "Whatever forms of segregation there may be" he concluded, "there can be no segregation in relation to Christ. The religion that uplifts the white man is the religion that uplifts the native. Will there ever be any solution to the problem? Only if it is attempted on the lines of Christ's teaching."

YOUNG HOWARD INSTRUCTOR RECEIVES HARVARD FELLOWSHIP WASHINGTON, D. C., April 18. Ralph Bunche, instructor in political science, has just 'been granted an Ozias Goodwin Memorial Fellowship at Harvard for graduate work in government. Mr. Bunche received his master's degree from Harvard last June, where he studied under a university scholarship. The grant maker it possible for him to work for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The grant maker he came to Howard only last fall. Mr. Bunche will with marked success in the work of the department, which he serves as acting head. Under his instruction political science has become one of the most popular courses in the college curriculum, several classes having to be closed because of maximum enrollment. His rare scholarship is an inspiration to the student body. As a student at the University of California, Mr. Bunche won highest honors, graduating valedictorian in a class of 655. In addition to his high scholastic standing he was active in extra-curricular affairs, being a member of the varsity debating team and for three years a guard on the varsity basketball team. The splendid scholastic achievement of Mr. Bunche affords an example for every Negro boy and girl struggling to secure an education by means of self-support. Mr. Bunche has been without mother and father since he was fourteen years of age and has worked his way through school up to the present point. The several scholarships which he has received have been rewards of his own merit. Mr. Bunche has been granted a year's leave of absence, in order to take advantage of a Harvard fellowship, after which time he will resume work in the department of political science at Howard University. Negroes Replace Whites As Redcaps in Memphis MEMPHIS, Tennessee, April 3.—To improve the service, W. S. Gadon, superintendent of the Union station here, announced that on April 16, Negroes would replace whites on red caps at the station. This announcement met the hearty approval of the Negro travelers who have frequently found themselves in an embarrassing situation when being forced to wear unstable secure porter service. Superintendent Gadon stated that the number of porters would be increased with the employment of Negroes and the service brought up to the highest possible standard ... president of the North Carolina College for Negroes of this city, estimates that about 260 leaders in the various professions, including all of the national figures, will be present to discuss matters of vital import to the Negro race. The program for this big meeting has just about been completed, and appearing on it are such prominent public figures as Dr. W. E. B. Dau-Bolts, Dr. M. C. Johnson, Dr. M. Johnson president of Howard University; Dr. George E. Haynes, of the Council* of Churches; Dr. Sallie Miller, of Howard University; Bishop George C. Clement, of Loudsville, Ky., and others equally well known. The local committee, composed of Dr. Shepard, Prof. W. G. Pearson, secretary of the conference, and C. S. Spaulding, treasurer, is sparing no effort to make the meeting a success. A good foundation for the work of the conference was laid in the initial and organization meeting in the spring of 1928. "We look forward this time, not only to the finding of facts, but we also expect to find the remedy for the facts" declared Dr. Shepard. Many proffers of support and co-operation have been received by him from white leaders who are interested in Ngo problems, and it is believed that here in Durham the machinery has been in motion that will lead to leading results of a highly beneficial nature. The event will make history for the Negro men and women on the program also being given to many other prominent Negro men and women from various sections of the United States. Dr. Shepard has already received letters from the most prominent men and women of the race, expressing their intentions to be present. Among these are: Anthony Overton, Chicago; Dr Mordecal W. Johnson, Washington; Ms Nannie H. Burroughs, Washington; Dr. Geo E. EHayes, New York City; Prof. Isaac Fisher, Tallahassee; Fla.; Prof. Kelly Miller, Washington; A. B. Holsey, Tuskegee; President, B.

Almond, city magistrate, was "taken for a ride" Friday night by gangsters, and is near death as the result of the sovereign beating he received. The police lay the affair to the relentless war the magistrate has waged against gamblers and bootleggers and say that it is an effort at reprisal on their part. Almond told Detective Captain Joseph Flurley Saturday morning that he know his assailants, then collapsed before he could utter their names. His story ran: He was walking alone on Arctic avenue, between Kentucky and Illinois avenues, at 11:50 Friday night, when an automobile drove up to the curb, four men alighted, threw a blanket over his head, dragged him into the car and started off. They then drove him around town for a long time, finally they stopped and carried him into a house, the whereabouts of which he could not determine in the darkness and his own dazed state. He then set upon him and beat him into unconcequeness. It was 6:30 a.m. when they dumped him, dazed and exhausted, on the pavement at Michigan and Arctic avenues. The street was deserted at that hour, and Almond's search for a policeman or someone passing by to aid him was in vain. He half stargazed, half crawled the two blocks to the city hospital and applied for treatment of his wounds. He was found to be suffering from four hours of arurgical teeth, and internal injuries, in addition to numerous bruises about the time and body. He was taken to the detective station, where he told his story to Carole Bairdy. The school on Almond Ridge was the special institution of girls violence where the murder of Jerry Dangler played a year in, the subsequent from prison to front Christian school and the subsequent from school to prison. PHILIPOLIS Friday - Speaking on native question here today, General Hertzog/sale there were enthusiasts, among whom were many missionaries, all sense, of proportion, claimed equal rights for both white and native. If they wanted equality, they must be consistent, and claim equality of vote, and the brandy chat. He had asked the native chiefe, who were go very precocious, whether they would be prepared to sell their lands to the white man. In that case, the native people themselves had risen like one man and spontaneously said, No, no. The fact was, said General Hortzos, that they did not know what they were asking. One could not ignore the fact that the two races were so widely divergent that the laws which were good for one would mean doom for the other. (Appeause). The Labor Supply There were 6,000,000 natives in the Union. South Africa drew its labor it must be remembered largely from among the natives, with the result that there was no place for the white youth as a laborer in the mines, the factory and even in the kitchen. Progress was undoubtedly being made in this respect, but they had to do their best to improve conditions. Still further, if South Africa could not support a European population of one and three-quarter million, it was time to think of getting out. "If you should take in whites on your farms in the place of natives at two and three times the wages you pay the latter," said General Hertzog, "it is clear that you will soon find yourself in the insolvency court. You must pay the white man a living wage, educate his children, educate his children, at less than at least two the wages you pay the native." "The industrial life of South Africa, there is no getting away from it, is based on the nation. I told the government that the railway and the industrialists, could nevertheless, do it, and it has been done with success. The country is scoring by it: for the white man is not only physically superior to the native, but is capable of doing more efficient work." It was this policy, said General Hertzog, that had reduced the number of workless people from 120,000 in 1924 to less than 10,000 today. In spite of the higher costs of white labor, the Prime Minister went on, farmers would have to consider whether they could not replace two or three natives by a white man. They all had relatives of some kind among the laboring class, and it was their duty, to see that a laborer came into his rights. White Man's Claim It might be said that this was not fair to the native, but he would reply that the white man had also a claim upon the white man. The white man's position towards the native was one of a father towards the child. He should see to it that the native got all the chances he deserved, but at the same time the claims of the white man himself could not be ignored. Referring to the native vote, the Premier said that there was no objection to representing the native in Parliament by the native man. The Premier did not call placing a white man and the native on the same platform. (Their heart.) (By The Associated Negro Press) BOSTON, Mass., April 10. Miss Susan Echols, of Brookline, won the Durant scholarship of Wellesley College in this, her senior, year. The achievement automatically places her on the "honor轮子" of 375 girls in the class, twenty-five of them received this distinction for excellence in their studies. The Durant scholarship is the second highest honor the school gives its meritorious students. Miss Dorothy Dayls of Washington, C., another colored student from the school this year, received a Wellesley scholarship, third highest honor. Miss Echols, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William J. Echols, faculty of Birmingham, Alabama, has received high marks consistently throughout her four-year course at Wellesley.

AT THE PIVOTAL POINT THERE are abundant signs everywhere that this, the Twentieth Century, on the threshold of which we are but just entering, is a great era—nay, more; the pivotal point—in the history and affairs of men and nations the wide world over; which means, therefore, that this also is the pivotal point in the history of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Negro Peoples of the world. At this particular time, when men all over creation are expressing their God given rights to govern themselves, and to decide how and by whom they shall be governed and their affairs administered, the Negro stands boldly out, looking the world in the face and declaring in no uncertain voice that the hour has arrived when he, too, shall decide for himself how his destiny and that of his ancestral homeland, Africa, will be shaped in the future. Centuries of oppression and deceit at the hands of those who arrogate to themselves the right to be styled "superior peoples" have convinced the Negro that there is no solution for the ills which are now heaped upon him, and the wrongs which have been and are still being perpetrated upon him and those of his kind; but the carrying out of the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, as enunciated by Marcus Garvey, whose coming, as it were, at a time in the history of the race when all seemed hopeless and dark shed a new ray upon Negro vision, stimulated hope, gave fresh assurance to his faith in himself and in his Creator, and lighted a new pathway, for the foot of the awakened Negro to tread. Since that eventful day, more than ten years ago, when Garvey gave his programme to the world and called upon black men everywhere to come and join this the greatest movement that has ever unfurled its flag for the advancement of the cause of any people since the world began, the Negro race has moved forward with rapid strides and has taken on a new spirit of determination and a more hopeful view of the pathway of life than has hitherto been the case since the time when Ethiopia led the nations of the world. The Negro has dared to assert himself in many ways. With a new conviction of the fitness of himself and his race to survive and hold their own among the men and nations of the world anywhere, we see the Negro entering lines of endeavor which formerly were closed doors to him. He is daily demonstrating to those who formerly decried his merit the fact that he is able and willing to take up the duties that must fall upon men who are expecting to take their places among those who carve out their own destiny as a race and people. There is no mistaking the fact that no people ever came to real greatness as long as they remained in a condition of servitude to any other race of people. Where would the American Colonies have been today had they been tied to the apron strings of the British Empire all these years? Would they ever have reached that exalted position among men and nations which they occupy at the present time had they been content to plod along as mere British colonists? It is obvious to even the most casual observer that the answer is "No!" Would the peoples of the Latin-American nations of the Western Hemisphere have become powers to be reckoned with in the determination of the destinies of the western world had they been content to remain the pawns of the kingdom of Spain? And so we might go on enlarging the illustrations. It stands to reason, therefore, that since no people ever found their real strength and never assumed the full measure of manhood, then it is perfectly clear that the Negro, being a man and endowed with all the God-given powers with which any others of the sons of men are endowed, cannot develop in the way the Creator intended as long as he remains a hewer of wood and drawer of water for Englishmen, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, Belgians or any other people of the world outside their race. Because of this realization, and because he has caught a new ray of light and a new inspiration, and has been charged with a high and new determination through the call of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, as uttered by Marcus Garvey, who seems destined to lead the new awakening among his race and people in the great shuffling of cards among all races and peoples everywhere, and because the Negro has come so far since the call first came, we dare to declare to all creation that the present hour is the greatest hour that has ever dawned since the Creator said, "Let there be light," and that in like manner as it affords the other races so it also is a spur to the ambition of the Negro, to rise and not only declare his intention to be free, as he has heretofore done, but to begin, with calm, cool determination and with stern soul, a fuming desire and an unquenchable spirit, to build for himself and his posterity a present and a future like of which has not been witnessed by the sons of men since the earliest dawn of history. Because of this determination we feel and know that we are standing today not only at the grand point in time, but in place and achievement, in the history of the Negro peoples of the world. With the great ideal before us of a great, dominant, strong, free and强大 commanding nation in our fatherland, of a nation that can propel us wherever Nearmen dwell, a nation that can make itself heart and organ reduce the wrinkles which have been laid and are still being kept upon diaphores by those who wish to avoid him and to kill him of life, the purpose of suppression and the reason of his impairment, and keep him in subjection and sardonic, the approach of the Strait International Convention of the Negro People of the World, so be held at Kingston, Jamaica, *K/W I.*, in the month of August, romes our souls afresh, and keeps bright and clear before us the vision of an Africa redeemed and a race madly, erth, nobit, courageous, invincible and free. "As a widow, I am deeply interested in the manner some of distinguished Dr. Benjamin Franklin, the great American Commissioner of Health, lay in an interview, "I cannot but feel that in the Nat analysis every child stricken with this disease becomes the potential tragic figure for the mother and father and those in whom that child is dear. I can never hope, upon a table of deaths, or cases from diphtheria without having them somewhat metaphorized into the trusting eyes of little children, whose innocent chatter has cooled and whose little feet no longer come to the open arms of those who love. Unlike most communities, New York is made up of parents who have a wide range of health knowledge—all the way from the peasant superstitions of a European villager to the indifferent cynicism of the sophisticated worldling. Sure as the sun rises in the east and traverses the course in the heavens day by day, so safely must the day come when Africa will be redeemed and the children of Haiti will be at liberty to walk the ways of their homeland in peace, and happiness, aided by the high desire to defend its sacred soil, and its traditional greatness against every form of outside aggression that shall ever arise. The Negro race is awakened to the needs of the hour (in the majority, at least), and we are determined to keep up the gospel of preparation for Nationhood and Freedom to the borders of eternity, if need be till the time comes when men shall be bound to respect our rights and shall be willing to concede to the Negro and his posterity his "place in the sun." We are standing today between two great extremes. Behind us lies the centuries of toil, oppressions, hatreds and hardships. We have weathered them. Before us lies the future, bright, clear, inviting, unmistakable and entrancing, offering us the realization of the dream which we have cherished since Carthage went down. Fortunately we have examples that all can understand. The newly arrived immigrant, the established business man, the frivolous mother can learn the lesson at a glance—by turning to the record of Cortland, Dunkirk, Gloversvila, Johnstown, New York, and Wanda, nine cities that have strung up diphtheria by the use of toxin-inositol. We are standing today in the present, our souls charged with high hope, our spirits flaming for the freedom which we so much desire, with our arms charged with a divine power that is irresistible, our teeth set, our hearts attuned to courage, faith and conquest, ready to go forth, in the greatest adventure the world has ever known, and to make mankind respect the Negro because of his manhood and his manhood achievements. "In order to successfully combat diphtheria in New York, it is necessary for us to immunize every child that reaches its first birthday. There are, each year, in New York, 123,000 babies who reach first birthday, and the population alone is equivalent to the whole population of Salt Lake City. On this pivotal point the Negro stands today beholding the vision of a fateful past, entrenching himself in accomplishments and attainments in the present, and hearing the voice of the great Hannibal saying again in unmistakable tones, "Yonder lies the Alps, beyond them Italy" and success. And because we are tired of oppression, because we desire to use our God-given rights, because we love Freedom more than life itself, we move forward from this pivotal point to the realization of our dreams. LET AFRICA BE FREE! There are approximately 1,000 public school buildings in New York, housing a population under 10 years of age aggregating 555,000—a group equal to the whole population of Washington, D. C. In addition, there are 331 parochial schools with a population of 127,000 more children. WHAT THE U. N. I. A. STANDS FOR "All these children must be protected. And only their parents—in the final analysis—can see that this is done. THERE is need for a restatement of the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. from time to time, so that every one can have a clear and thorough understanding of the platform of the greatest force, morally, socially, politically, financially and otherwise, which has ever affected the destiny of the Negro race since life had its origin on this planet. "Beyond that there must be a continued campaign, less intensified perhaps, which shall continue to make the city diphtheria-conscious. This campaign must extend not only to the mothers of children but must permeate high schools for girls," training schools for teachers—"everywhere." Realizing that God made, of one flesh, all the races of men who dwell upon the face of the earth, and that the Creator endowed all men with certain malenable rights, and that inasmuch as these rights belong to the Negro as well as to others of the human race, and seeing these rights being trampled upon everywhere (Negro rights), the Universal Negro Improvement Association calls to the Negro in these opening days of the twentieth century to assert these rights, to demand a full recognition of those rights; to agitate for those rights, to prepare to fight and die for those rights if heed be; in short, to toouse himself from his lethargic sleep of centuries, to look the world and its Creator in the face, to rise up and "Be a Man!" The U. N. I. A...seeks to quicken the impulse of the Negro; to awaken him to the needs of the hour; to rejuvenate his entire being; to fire his spirit; to steel his arm; to strengthen his faith and plant a new determination in his soul. To make him realize that the time has come; the hour has arrived, when he can no longer safely trust his destiny in the hands of other men, but that he must bestir himself and shake off the shackles of fear, doubt, indecision and inactivity which formerly held him, is also a part of the program. BUILDING HEALTH For a spring medicine there is a better water than pure water. Try eight glasses a day. Old prejudices are little venerated by the young. In a Hi- $ \mathcal{I} $ conference hold in Kansas, recently, among questions considered was that of race relations, thus expressed, "In the plan of God some races are supposed to be the servants of others." Six hundred and fifty were supposed to be hundred and fifty-two said "Ten," a tour to one adherence to the brotherhood of men. Under the leadership of Marcus Garvey the U. N. I. A. is calling to the Negro everywhere to join its ranks, to raise his soul, and to build for himself and for his children's children a government of Negroes, for Negroes, by Negroes, in his fatherland—the land man call Africa. Everywhere in this country, even in the South, young people are displaying first an interest in all men and then a willingness to apply to their dealings with them the philosophy of Jesus Christ. Among adults, the exchange from the old right standard of intolerance is impeded by social convention, and people is "a more potent argument why white and black grown-ups stay apart, than it is with young people who think their ideals worth trying to realize. The young men in Kansas are representative of their class everywhere. Down in Georgia, at Atlanta, the young men and women in the white and Negro colleges were having a glorious time meeting and studying the relations of the races until Bishop James put his ecclesiastical foot down. Christ might go about meeting all manner of men, but His representative in Georgia did not favor any such gallivanting in these days. The U. N. I. A. strives to impress upon the Negro the fact that "the Negro must save himself"; that he must, by his own brain and brawn, in this eventful day, win back "the glory that his fathers lost in the days of long ago." This organization urges upon the Negro the prime necessity of so equipping himself for the battle of life that he will be able to triumph over every form of opposition which shall put up the bar against a complete and all-round emancipation and the redemption of Afrisa. It is written in the firmaments that "the Negro must be free" and "Africa must be redeemed." Wide awake men everywhere can read those potent signs on the signboard of heaven, and the U. N. I. A. is sounding a call that reaches to the utmost bounds of the earth. Conscious that a mighty duty devolves upon it, the U. N. I. A. is using every lawful means to make the Negro think and plan and dare and do for the freedom of his homeland, for the upliftment and emancipation of his race, and the future security of countless generations of Negroes ver unborn. There will be betterment. In the world so long as fresh young hopes keep leaping against the hopes of old habits. Four young white men, many they do not expect to be bowed down by anybody, to every one who thinks he is superior speaks volumes for the schools and their work of education. It has never been reasonable for a human being, linear descendant of a worm living in primal ooze to put on arm about superiority. Less reasonable has it been for whites to take pride in a few thousand years of commercial and governmental dominance to the point of forgetting they now know. It is not color. Least reasonable has it been for them to be so self-attested because of blood relationship, when both their political philosophy and their religion say brotherhood is the only principle, which will endure. In the meantime, measurable and unchanging Providence keeps working out the millennium through the agency of successive waves of life—good imbued with ideals like these exercised by the H-Ym Kenna. The U. N. I. A. teaches love for all men and enmity toward none. It teaches a broad tolerance for the just and lawful aspirations, and the building up of "backbone" where formerly the Negro had a "wishbone." In declaring to the world that "the Negro must be free" and that "Africa must be redeemed" we have sounded a trumpet that shall never call "retreat," whose stirring blasts shall fire the heart and soul and mind of the Negro everywhere, in every age, till time and earth shall cease to be. The U. N. I. A. realizes the importance of the task ahead, but marches on, steered for the fray. The call of the hour to the Negro in every walk of life and in every corner of the glove as it comes to the Negro today is to be prepared for the most stupendous effort that has ever been made by any people anywhere since the world began. The U. N. I. A. warns the Negro to be ready to give service, give health, wealth and life itself if need be for the fulfilment of the prophecies of divinity and the realization of his hopes and expectations. "Build a manly, upright, stalwart, courageous, fearless, deathless race," comes the voice of Marcus Garvey, as he leads the U. N. I. A. and the Negro to victory over the obstacles and oppositions which rear their heads or dare to oppose our upward, onward match to Freedom. The U. N. I. A. does not, as some pretend to believe and say, intend to transport the Negro to Africa in any wholesale manner. That is a physical impossibility and not at all necessary; but it does intend to found for the Negro a government that shall win the respect and admiration of the world.

The awakened, upstanding, self-respecting Negro of the twentieth century, under the leadership of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, will take the Negro hamer—the red, the black and the green—to African, plant it on the hillside, on the plait, in the valleys, and keep it planted there till this floating world has ceased to be; till the great Archimandre trumpet shall sound.

It comprises ten men who have gained special activities. It is a senior organization, electing its successors from the junior college class. The Achievement Society is a recognition of special merit in extra-curricular activities and for such distinguished service as rendered by the senior class president of the senior class, editor-in-chief of the HH Top, etc. It is not out of place to remind our readers, or to be reminded ourselves now and then that the newspaper is an important factor in the community progress. That should be kept constantly uppermost in the minds of both. It has a place that nothing else can fill. It performs a function for which there is no substitute. It is the means of making and reflecting the community's sentiment—the mirror in which the community sees its smooth surface on which it is afforded a field for the reflection of all types of ideas and interests.—The Birmingham Reporter. No' views heretoofe expressed by any other one of our presidents has served to arouse more widespread comment from press and platform than President Hoover's stand on the question of patronage. Hardly a single editor' of our southland has failed to comment on the president's announced attitude, and invariably his every word has been heartily commanded and his announced program of pie-dispensing changes is condoned to the letter by some writers. Whatever care they might have endeavored to effort to conceal the cause of their election, it is plain to the most unsuspecting reader that the plan which will virtually render' the Negro Republican leader' influence all is the cause for the relishing of our southern brethren, the majority of whom are of the democratic faith.—The East Tennessee News. Sixteen employees in the office of the Minister of Defense for the Ministry of Colonization, publishing Arthur O. Dale, the Minister, during a brief interview ranging from ten days to fifty days before July 1. The original appropriation of $90,000 was not sufficient to cover expenses incurred federal employees but July under the Welfare Act, an additional appropriation approved upon the same will left the department for college. In the late 1960s we increased our education, and we made young chapars. One, however, had gotten a bit further ahead on the ladder of the age the other. The latter had received this high award, unwieldy why the mind was not as broad and active as the former, so he decided to talk over the situation with the more successful one in order to learn the secrets of increasing his ability and the financial remuneration. The more successful one: began his questioning of the other by asking him what and how much did he read. The latter replied that he did not read very much, especially colored publications, because he did not believe that their columns offered any opportunities for bettering the young Negro individual status. The more successful became alarmed, because men whose ideals were high who ambitions were keen. After he had discovered that the other was really not prejudiced, but had arrived at this conclusion through honest but unlightened deliberations, he began to relate how reading Negro publications carefully had placed him on the right track for success. "How did you do it?" asked the less successful one. And this is a part of the reply he received. "I read carefully, each news item telling of the success of some Negro in someither to unexplored field of endeavor. I note carefully his application to and attitude with which all others to be similarities between his situation and mine, I compare them and make whatever improvements on my own methods I can in the light of this comparison. Then, most of all, I read each advertisement, without regard to its size, looking carefully for those opportunities which are offered to the youth who is willing to apply himself, wholeheartedly and conscientiously to a job or position. Then a book for advertisements of which will allow me to be my own individual self-socially, and economically. You would be surprised at the number of small improvements I was able to make on myself by taking advantage of sometimes the very smallest advertisements in Negro publications—advertisements which have helped me, to form some of the choicest business and social contacts." "Well, I don't know about all that," said the less successful one. "I do!" did the more successful one. And he did, so he kept ahead. SUCH THINGS DO HAPPEN! It is estimated that there was an average of thirty-eight Negroes in each white regiment in the Revolutionary War. From June S. 1917, to September 12, 1918, there were 2,230,527 Negroes registered for service in the U. S. army. The board of trustees has passed a fulling providing for a book store on the campus on or after September 30, 1929, the same to be established at a place and under conditions to be determined by a committee of the board of trustees. It is contented by students that such a college would not only be a museum of commerce to students and faculty, but will provide books at a greatly reduced cost and afford opportunity for employment and experience to students in the department of business administration. Next to love the most powerful and ennobling force in human existence is Friendship—trust, loyalty, understanding Friendship. The fact is that we can have no real and true friendship without a large measure of love. Some folks tell us that the Dollar Bill is our Best Friend, but they are fooling themselves, because money is only a measure which we purchase needs for the body and luxuries for the enjoyment of ourselves and loved ones. You can't measure friendship by any such standards. A real friend is one who knows all your faults, understands your shortcomings and still loves you dearly in spite of them—The California Voice. Whatever may be said of President Hoover's statement, since it was omitted to the states which have had Negro party leadership, it conceivably might tend to do the race irreparably injury. Had the President careed to, as to have embraced the whole south, or the whole country, more properly, and spared the Negro race the full effect of his blow, inasmuch as he must have known that the small chance Negro have had to play in petroleum dispensing is quite insignificant compared to what the big leaders in the majority states have had and considered—Norfolk Journal and Guide. Money means to be the senior part for man, he will be to judge, he will judge to get it, he will judge to give it, and will judge to be willing to have money. Therefore he has bad luck for it, when he cannot get enough of his own money to meet his future. He should bring money and be responsible, why money is there in a permanent quality. The capital of his house by the high bank is in this order, because the wife must own the large house. International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World EXCURSION SHIPS TO SAIL FROM NEW YORK WITH AMERICAN DELEGATES AND TOURISTS TO REACH JAMAICA JULY 30, 1929 Harlan. New York black belt. Been after the recent wave of public interest in it still to stand while a city of some injustice and blatant misdeeds. Harlan in reality is a boundary-burning coop with a population of a quarter-million Negroes of all types and classes—a struggling mass of people with varied capacities for adaptation to a strange and sometimes sinister environment. It is a city of constant surprise, a city of ecstatic moments and diverting phenomena. It is a multi-denied ensemble, offering many surprise packets of persons, places, amusements and vocations. It is a cosmos within itself. Life there is not stable and monotonous. Rather, it is moving, colorful and richly studded with contrasting elements and contradictory types. In Harlem we find a community as American as Gopher Prairie or Zenith, a community keenly alert to the cosmopolitan currents swirling around it and through it; a community cut out for speed and splendor, equalor and wealth, penury and prosperity. It permits of everything possessed, by that stupendous ensemble - New York City - of which it is a part. About 40 Per Cent Foreign Born. Like New York, Harlem is a cosmopolitan city. Its people are as varied and polygel as could be found anywhere. The whites indiscriminately lump them together as "Negroes" or "niggers." But they are really unassailable under any existent ethnic term, for the racial complexity of the American Negro is astounding. In his veins flows the mixed bloods of the African from whom he originally stemmed, the American Indians with whom he intermarried in pre- and post-slavery days, and of every white race under the sun. And then in Harlem this home-grown ethnic amalgam is associating and in farmixing with Negroes from the Antipodes and Caribbeane from Africa and Asia. South America, and every other place that dark-skinned people hall from. About 40 per cent of the, Negroes, in Harlem are foreign born. The majority of these foreigners come from the British West Indies. Another large group, comes from the Virgin Islands, having been forced to seek financial salvation in America because our national prohibition act blasted their rum trade. And the next largest quota comes from the French and Spanish-speaking localities and islands in South and Central America. These foreign Negroes, upon their arrival in New York, find themselves pagregated in a community the likes of which they have never been before, and are forced to mingle with other Negroes having distinct cultural and linguical differences. Petty prejudices and Naturally these various groups within in the race clash, but fortunately the struggle to live and the amount of mass energy needed to fight the white man's prejudice and discrimination leaves little time for actual intra-racial combat. The foreigners and natives express their impatience and disgust with one another in a social or verbal way. The American Negro calls the West Indian Negro a "monkey chaser." The West Indian's retaliatory epithets cannot be printed. This seething melting-pot of conflicting nationalities and languages is just one of the many sides of Negro life in Harlem of which white people are practically unaware. It is almost incomprehensible to them that the American Negro should share the American white man's prejudices against foreigners and that he should vigorously resent their intrusion into his country. Another aspect of Harlam life little known or publicised is the social and economic life of the upper strata of Negro society. It is taken for granted by most whites that all Negroes with the possible exception of those constantly in the spotlight—like Rokand Hayes, Paul Robeson, William Du Bois or James, Weldon Johnson—are in a class with chauffeeurs and washerwomen. They do not take into consideration that a large number of Negroes have long been emancipated from mentality, and that many have established fortunes or achieved enviable incomes. 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. M. L. T. DE MENA, Assistant International Organizer, Universal Negro Improvement Association. New York Headquarters, 355 Lenox Ave. Inexpensive Harlem Negroes live in expensively appointed homes and apartments, have made and abaufeurs, entertain lavishly, and send their sons to Columbia, Harvard, Yale, while their daughters go to Barnard, Vassar and Wallisley. They attend auctions and invest in antiques and rare objects of art. Their clothes come from Fifth avenue. They go for vacations in Europe, Atlantic City, the Maine woods and Southern California. A great Negro middle class is being evolved. They are the mercantile forerunners of a future Negro aristocracy.

El hombre no tiene ninguna derrocía especial porque pertenece a una raza a la cura: digase hombre, y ya se dicen todos los derechos. El signo, no negro, no es inferior ni superior a, imagin, otro hombre; paca por rediminante el blanco; que dice; mica; paca por redundante el negro que dice: mí raza. Todo lo que divide a los hombres, todo lo que especifica, aparta o acorrala, un pecado contra la humanidad. A que blanco sensato le ocurre envanezos especiales por serlo? Que han de losarlos blanco del negro que en envanece de su color? Insistir en la la divisiones de rabia, en un pueblo naturalmente dividido, es individual que están en el mayor aceriviamiento de los factores que han de encomi en comuni. Si se dice que en el negro fo hay culpa aborigen, ni virus que lo inhabilita para desvenolver toda su habilita de deseñor la vergad, ya ha de decirse y demostrase, porque la injusticia de este mundo es mucha, y la ignorancia de los mismos que pasa por sabiduria, y aun hay quien crea de buena fe al negro incapaz de la inteligencia y corazón del blanco y si a defensa de la naturalsea se la llama racismo, no importa que se le llamase, porque no es más que, decoro natural, y voz que clama del pecho del hombre por la paz y la vida del País. Si se alega de la condición de esclavitud, no acusa inferioridad en la la esciva, puesto que los galos blancos, de ejos azules y cabellos de oro, se vendieron como siervos, con la argolla al cuello, en los mercados de, Ronda: eso es racismo bueno, porque es pur-justicia y-ayuda a quitar jerujicos al blanco ignorante. Pero ahi acaba el racismo justo, que es, del derecho del negro a mantener y a probar que su color no le priva de ninguna de las capacidades y derechos de la especie humana. El racismo blanco que le cree a su raza derechos superiores, de derecho tiene para quiearse del racista negro que también le vea especialidad a, su raza? El racista negro que ve en la raza un carácter especial, que derecho tiene para que jarse del racista blanco. El hombre blanco, que por razón de su raza so cree superior al hombre negro, admite la idea de la raza y autoriza y provoca al racista negro. El hombre negro que proclama a su raza, cuando lo que acaso proclama unicamente en esta forma errónea es la identidad espiritual de todas las rasas, autoriza y provoca al racista blanco, a paz pide los derechos comunes de la naturaleza: los derechos diferenciales contrarios a la naturaleza, son encumigos de la paz. El blanzo que se aisla, al negro. El negro que se aisla provoca a aislar al blanco. 11. Under Ground TREASURES HOW WERE NO FIRES THEN BURNED MARKET. 60.

La Republica no se puede volver atrás; y la República, desde el dia único de redención del negro en Cuba desde la primera constitución de la independencia el 10 de Abril en Cuaimaró, no hablo nunca de blancos ni de negros. Los derechos públicos, concedidos ya de pura astucia por el Gobierno español, e iniciados en las costumbres antes de la independencia de la Isla. no podrán ya ser negados, ni por el español que los mantendrá mientras aliente en Cuba para seguir dividiendo el cubano negro del cubano blanco, ni por la independencia, que no podría negar en la libertad los derechos que el español reconoció en la servidumbre.

Tenia muchos pretendientes, y le gustaba conducir por si misma su rajado automovil. Hace poco se anunció su casamiento. ¿Quien era el elegido? Un hombre de negocios, un tenor, an aviador, un pugilista . . . ? No: un simple obrero de una gran fábrica de los alrededores. El obrero se habia enamorado locamente de Miss O'Brien. Circunstancias favorables le habian permitido hablarla. El muchacho esta mal vestido, pero tenia la mirada inteligente y la voz calida y persuasiva. Era obrero; sin embargo, segun le decian sus jefes, podía abrigar la esperanza de hacer carrera. Por ese se ha atrevido a mirar a una señora como ella. Catalina le escuchó con agrado y volvió a cerle a menudo. Number-running, being both profitable and dangerous, offers sufficient attraction to lead many to take it up as a career. And almost any person one meets walking the streets of Harlem, or entering the hallways of one of Harlem's mphitic tenements, might be suspect. There is no possible way of finding out how many runners operate, but when one considers the case with which a number may be placed, and the number of people who are addicted to this form of gambling, there must be in Harlem over a thousand number-runners - daily, collecting silks from more than a hundred thousand clients. Then there are the house-rent parties, which, like numbers, are an institution peculiar to the Black Belt. These parties owe their origin to the fact that rental fees in Harlem are oxorbitant, and, although - tenants subtlet every available bit of bed space, another source of income is still necessary to keep off the dispossesses notice. Some folk give rent parties weekly, some bi-weekly, some monthly and others only in time of stress. The rent party brings the public into the house at 25 cents a head, and to bring the public in requires a good "hot" piano player. Some people have found rent parties so profitable that they have become professional givers of house-rent parties, getting their whole income from them. These professional parties usually have more than one instrument to furnish their music, but the rank of the combo themselves to the hiring of the piano player is the piano. If the piano player is personable, and capable, he can play at some party almost every night in the week. In fact, house-rent piano playing in Hardem has become a profession and the house-rent piano player is an easily recognizable type. They are seldom good looking, that is, handsome, for handsome men of this type are too much in demand as "sweetacks" and paramours. They dress flashily in extreme styles. They must have a fair singing voice, a choice repertoire of "wine cracks," "pardies, shout," and other such tricks of their trade. They unconsciously become glo to regulate the scale of people's emotions, and pick their music accordingly, becoming more and more primitive, more and more vulgar, as the evening advances, and the corn liquor and synthetic gin, which is sold at every rent, party, beginne, to take effect on the dancers. When the party reaches a climax it is the piano player alone who controls its emotional and physical gentry. Some inking of this seemingly permeates his being, and a strange harbairie ecstasy emanates from his periphery body.

Picture Sun Yat Sen Canton, China, April 11.—Gally colored banknotes from the United States have brought new prosperity to South China, an area hard hit during the last year by civil war and a slain government. These American notes, have nothing to do with the Treasury of Uncle Sam, nor do they bear the signature or likeness of any American. Instead, on them appears the picture of Sun Yat-sen, and the chief of the South China Central Bank promises to pay their face value in silver money. Since the communist riots In December, 1927, the Canton government's currency issues have been closely defended by the Communist leaders, communists descented with the bank's silver reserves when they fled the city. The rapprochement with Hongkong last spring, relentless war on communist and labor artillery, and now the patriotic action of local merchants, coupled with the general relasuring effect of the American-made noteworthy well on the road to re-establishing the Central Bank's credit PHOTO ENLARGEMENTS HAND COLORED PHOTO ENLARGEMENTS HAND COLORED Full Size $ 10 Vibration $ 10 picture, negative or inappropriate, any size. guarantees safe, safe within our full size and is shipped in a brown cardboard inced in 8 a.m. a full lifetime.

We are so well cared for, but we are also more important to our queen. The U. N. H. has brought to us our warrior women, Mrs. Garvey, Lady Davis, Madame Dumare. Such beautiful examples. Women of the race haves a treat, when these women come at different times to our community, and they fall to see and hear them. Widom is that which is sorally needed in our work. Our critics are still busy trying to hamper our work, but we have given out this challenge. They may as well try to stop the sun from shining, as to stop us from this glorious program of nation-builders. I prise the task as anschooling from your kindergartens as to an International University where anyone may attain any number of degrees he or she desires. Two of our paramount studies are history and theology. Not as the present day scholar studies theology, but as the God of Creation has handed it down through Jesus Christ: the Fatherhood of God, and Brotherhood of Man. Without ceasing we are out of touch with the freedom for black folks, Mr. Charles Satchlom Morris, of Virginia, spoke. In his address few weeks ago he said it was not so much taking the Negro out of the HAMPTON INSTITUTE, April 6.—Hampton Institute is making plans for the english annual intercollegiate and intercollegiate track and field meet which will be held on Armstrong Field Saturday, May 11, 1920. The meet is sanctioned by the C. I. A. A. as the annual track and field championships. From the present indications the meet this year will be the largest yet held on Armstrong Field. More schools are planning to participate than ever before. All the C. I. A. A. schools will enter representative teams and institutions from other sections of the country plan to enter relay and track teams. Competition will be especially close between Lincoln, Howard, Union and Hampton. The Lincoln Lice video trophy last year is already at work, on track and field to perform the same feat again this year. Howard University track team expects to be heard from as it is said that plenty of talent is to be found on the hilltop. Trophiles and Medals The Robert S. Abbott mile relay trophy, which was won last year by Hampton, will again be competed for this year. This trophy must be won three times to become the permanent property of any institution. Hampton holds one leg on the trophy. The Southern Aid Society trophy for this year consists of the half mile, the 440 and the 220s. for the collegiate division and will be competed for again this year. The first leg of that trophy was won last year at Union University. The first school winning this trophy three times will become owner of the trophy. The half mile trophy was given last year by Dr. Wm. S. Parker on the following conditions: "If the trophy is won twice by the same individual, it becomes the permanent property of the institution only once it remains the property of the institution which the man represents." It was won last year by Severin of Lincoln. The Virginia High School half mile race will again be competed for. Manassas has two legs on this cup, and the Booker T. Washington, Norfolk, has one leg on the cup. There will also be the national high school one mile relay cup which has been given during the past years by Frank Young of the University of Virginia. Point trophies will be given for both the collegiate and scholastic division. Gold, bronze, silver medals will be given for first, second and third places. The events will be as follows. For the collegiate division: 100 yard dash, 220 yard dash, 440 yard run, 800 yard-run, dash the mile, the two-mile, 120 yard high hurdles, 220 yard low hurdles, 16 pound shot put, javelin throw; broad jump, high jump, pole vault, the discus throw, mile relay and medley relay. For the high school division: 100 yard dash, 220 yard dash, 440 yard run, 800 yard run, 1-mile, 126 yard low hurdles, high jump, board jump, pole vault, 12 pound shot put.

Twice on Sunday, and all through the night, Negroes came to Lafayette to greet us. We were all in yellow dresses, and we stood in every yellow dress. We have served for over three hundred years. Here is a lovely brym for Negroes to shout. Amazing Africa! how sweet it sounds! In every Negro's ears it heals our sorrows, soothes our wounds, and drives away our fears. It was Garvey that taught our hearts to fear (economic), and Garvey our fears relieved, (nation-building). How precious did that message appear, the hour we first believed. Through many dangers, tolls, and snakes, we have already come. This (nation-building) has brought us safe thus far, the flag will lead us home. Great God has promised good to us. His word our hopes sources. He will our shield, our armor be, as long as life endures. This heart and flesh shall never fall. Our life will never cease; until we all possess bur, land, then our lives will be joy and peace. Amazing African: how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. The complex (inferiority) lost me, but now I'm found. My destiny makes me see. Cuban Bent on Winning 'Champ- plishment of His Class Kid Chocolate, the smiling Cuban fighter, who meets Bushy Graham of Utica in a fifteen-round bout at the boxing inaugural of the New York Coliseum next Friday night, is bent on winning the championship of the division. And if he eliminates Graham, the "Keed" will take a trip to England and France to meet the respective ticket holders of those countries. The Cuban has ambitions to see the world, as well as wearing a crown. He ridicules the talk of Andre Routie meeting him for the world's feather- weight title and regards Routie's will- liness to do so as ballyhoo for the 128-pound championship. "Routis does not want any part of me," said the "Keed" while he was getting a rub-down following his workout for the Graham bout yesterday. When I first came here, he continued, "I bloated myself in an effort to get heavier. I partook of starchy foods and drank milked milks in order to build myself up to 125 pounds. "When I suggested Routis for my opponent at the Collecum you'd think I had leprosy or some other dread disease according to the war. Mr. McCannier described the four Routis had for me. "If the Frenchman was sincere in his talk about meeting me why does he match himself with some unknown at New Haven and Tony Canzoner, whom he promised a return bout, above the featherweight limit? No, he wants no part of Kid Chocolate. I've been called a second George Dixon, which is a great compliment, indeed. He was the first bantamweight champion of the world, according to the records and clinched the title by going to England and beating Nune Wallace. I'll not shame the memory of that great fighter. I'll add to it and light them all, no matter what their race, nationality or creed. J. E. GADSBY 137 West 127th St., N, Y. C.

Y. Douglas High, W. V., Wins 2nd Place and Union High of Hampton 3rd — Tournament Passes All Expectations By JAMES B. CLARKE HAMPTON INSTITUTE, March 31 Arnstrong High of Washington, D.C. waded through a group of some of the finest high school teams in the country, undefeated, to be crowned the first national scholastic basketball champion at the first national scholastic basketball tournament. Douglas High of Huntington, W. Va. was in the finals with Arnstrong High, but was defeated, thereby placing them second in the tournament. Union High of Hampton, Va. came third. Ten teams were represented through the two days of hard playing—Addison High of Roxbury, Va.; Arnstrong High of Washington, D.C.; Washington High of Rocky Mount, N.C.; Brown Creek District High School of Klimball, W. Va.; Christian College High School of Franklinton, N.C.; Douglas High of Huntington, W. Va. Huntington High—Newport News, Va.; Wailong High of Wilson, N.C. ; Johnson County High School of Smithfield, N.C.; Uplon High of Hampton, Va. Of the ten teams represented one came from Washington, D. C., three from Virginia, four from North Carolina, and two from West Virginia. With these teams came Joe Hampton some of the finest and best basketball players in this section of the country. Not only did the tournament prove to be an immense success, through the efforts of Mr. Charles H. Williams, physical director of Hampton Institute, but it proved conclusively that it is possible to declare a national high school champion. Beautiful Trophies Arts Awarded to Winners After the final game between Armstrong High and Douglass, Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton, made a short talk commending the teams for their hard clean playing and spirit of playing the game for the game's sake. He then presented to the captain of Armstrong High of Washington a beautiful basketball, which was mounted on a mahogany base. A second prize, which was a silver basketball was presented to Douglass High team, and a bronze basketball was presented to Union High of Hampton. In addition to these prizes individual awards were presented to eight individuals on each of the three winning teams. Another prize of interest which was given by the Spanding Sporting Goods Company, a silver loving cup, was presented to W. Moss of Kimball, W. Va. This cup was given to Moss as being among the best players and above all the cleanest sport of the teams. All State Champions Buffer Defeat All of the State champions suffered defeat in the early stages of the tour- ment, and strangle to say, none of them mustered enough energy to stage a comeback and grab third place. Huntington High of Newport News, Va., was the first victim to suffer the sting. Union High of Hampton, one of Huntington's ancient rivals, defeated her in the second game of the tour- ment. Booker T.

Doug Williams with only one man, and I, my teammate, were able to win the game, and the other teammate was able to win the game. Doug Williams said that she could not afford to lose a man on faith, so the playing from the beginning had to be careful and cautious. Armstrong took advantage, of this break and ran up a safe lead in the first quarter. Douglas soon found herself with her back to the wall, and then she began to play real basketball. The team was tied once or twice, but the game did not end. The game was game but beginning from end, as the first national championship hung in the balance. At the final gun it was a sign of relief that went up from the crowd, for such a game was unusually hard on the nerves of people who are not ordinarily nervous. PETEISBURG, Va., March 20—Howard University showed potential strength in its opening game against State College as indicated by the score of 10-3 in the first five innings.
