The Negro World

The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Architectural Negro Negro World A Newspaper Dedicated solely to the Interest of the Negro Race VOL. XXV.—No. 19 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JUNE 15, 1929 Imperative That Negroes Evolve a Statesmanship of Their Own, Capable of Looking After Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting. Efforts are being made by the world's great leaders to bring about a proper adjustment in human affairs in this new year of 1929. The minds of the statesmen of France, of England, of Japan, of America, Italy and other well-recognized governments are now concentrated upon the plan of arranging the economic as well as the political order of society. Their plans are given out to the world, while humanity everywhere feels somewhat satisfied that an honest effort is being made to bring about a settlement of the great questions that have been perplexing the human race ever since the war of 1914-1918. Unfortunately, Negroes have no great leaders. Within modern times we have never had any real statesmen, and the masses of our people have always accepted the intentions and actions of the statesmen and leaders of other races as being directed in our interest as a group in conjunction with the interests of others. Such a feeling on our part caused us to believe that the Constitution of the United States of America was written for Negroes, as well as the Constitution of England, France, Italy, Germany and other countries where Negroes happen to have their present domicile, either as citizens or as subjects. That we suffer so much today under whatsoever flag we live is proof positive that constitutions and laws, when framed by the early advocates of human liberty, never included and were never intended for us as a people. It is only a question of sheer accident that we happen to be fellow citizens today with the descendants of those who, through their advocacy, laid the foundation for human rights. So this brings us to the point where, as a people, we can expect but very little from the efforts of present day statesmen of other races, in that their plans, as far as advantages to be derived therefrom are concerned, are laid only in the interest of their own people, and not in the interest of Negroes; hence, it is imperative that Negroes as a people evolve just at this time a statesmanship sufficiently able to cope with the designs and movements that are being made that will ultimately mean our doom and destruction. I repeat that it is silly for the black Britisher to depend upon the statesmanship of David Lloyd George to extricate him from his condition of servitude. It is more than foolish for the black French colonial to depend upon the statesmanship of Montsaint Béland to lead Hour Has Struck For Fullest Display of Negro Manhood—400,000,000 Negroes Must Not Allow Themselves to be Trampled. Created in Image and Likeness of God, Negroes Must Realize Their Right to Enjoy Their Inheritance. Says President-General to the interest of white Frenchmen, and so it is also foolish on the part of the black Italian colonial to expect anything of consideration from white Italian statesmen, and so it would be foolish on the part of the black Americans to expect much from the statesmanship of today, because it is but reasonable to conclude that from what we have seen and heard and experienced this is the time when each race and nation is looking out for itself, at the expense of the other. As a people we have been flattered and deceived for hundreds of years, because of which we find ourselves today leaderless, purposeless, drifting on the ocean of time, like a barque without a rudder; but, thank Heaven, at this very critical moment we have been able to advance among ourselves the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which seeks to unite Negroes everywhere throughout the four corners of the globe, to bring them into one mighty whole of four hundred millions, with the grand objective of freeing the continent of Africa, and there establish a republic and an empire over which we shall exercise control and protect ourselves from the wicked and sinister designs of the other races and nations of the world, who are determined to subjugate Africa and keep her in perpetual slavery. manhood. As four hundred millions of people we cannot allow ourselves to be trampled under foot for another century, another decade or another year. The time has really come when the four hundred millions of us scattered throughout the world must rise as one man in our demand for human justice, for human rights. You must realize, men and women of the Negro race, that you were created in the image of your Divine Father and that you have as much right to enjoy the benefits of your inheritance as any other race in the world. Africa is the heritage of every black man or woman. Caring not whether he be born in Africa, America, the West Indies, or South or Central America, he has a claim legal, moral and divine on Africa that cannot be disputed. Now is the time, therefore for us to wage a universal campaign for this our heritage. When a man is robbed of his property, he does not go begging for it, but goes boldly and demands it in the name of the law and in the name of justice. Now that Africa is being robbed from the Negro peoples of the world, it is not for them to beg for it; it is for them to organize their forces intellectually, financially, industrially, commercially, politically, physically, and go out and demand it. It is not a question of asking who is there, and if it is possible for us to displace the intruder. It is for us to organize with the forces that we have between heaven and earth and free Africa. The world is not yet at a standstill; the world still is in chaos; yes, in confusion, and out of this confusion will come many more upheavals that will shake the very foundations of the world itself. Fool not yourselves in believing that the conferences that have been held, and will be held in the very near future, are sufficient to settle the disgruntled state of the world, the dissatisfied condition of humanity. They have not gone down to the root of all evils that give cause to the great discontent of today, and until they reach down to the core of human discontent, they will never be able to establish a permanent government in a settled world.

SON OF SHEM (In the twenty-nine years, from 1889 to 1918, 3,224 lynchings—an average of 111 each year—were officially recorded in the United States of America.—The Nation, New York). Christ was once a little child, credulous as you. Dancing "neath Egyptian skies on lightsome nut-brown feet; Slumbling in the shadow, and aware at evening's dew. Of tiredness after pressure of the noontide heat. Jesus thought, as you think, little Ebon Boy. "Dreamed bright dreams of happiness, all unmixed with vague unrest. Oh, the febrile days of waiting half in sorrow, half in joy. The unfoldment of the Lilies, pure white Lilies in His breast. Jesus died as You die, in ages crucible, and cruel. High upon a shadowy hill, to see the whole world free: Gave His life, as in the fire your father's flesh made fuel For those malicious martyrdom, shame and rue on mine and me! J. M. STUART, YOUNG. Nigeria. Broader Fraternization Must Be Cultivated To the Editor of The Negro World: In order to maintain the prestige and preserve the dignity of an organization like the Universal Negro Improvement Association, it is vitally important that our members cultivate the spirit of fraternalization in the highest possible degree. We can all afford to practice the spirit of revenge or malicious retaliation toward those who might disagree with our convictions. Our sole duty is to build up and strengthen others who do not understand our motives. Until a larger number of our race see fit to unite themselves. we must set the part of values and instruction, according the present degree of patience, sympathy and tolerance necessary to wipe their attention. We should learn to differ without losing our respect for the persons who do not agree with us; we should be able to criticise without becoming vindictive and belligerent; and we should be in the position to discuss and analyze with an open mind, in order that we might better understand the causes for our differences of opinion. If an atmosphere of repugnance is created, the possibilities for mutual respect and interest are weakened, so we must at all times endeavor to prevent such a condition from developing. The U. N. L. A. is a gigantic company engaged in the herculean task of nation-building. It requires a strong organization to succeed in the efforts that it is making, and every strong organization must have concentrated co-operation. Confusion and misunderstanding will weaken any movement and retard its growth and progress. Therefore, it behoves those who realize the importance of the program to exercise more patience when dealing with those who honestly differ, with our convictions. Moral: If you are unsuccessful in winning a friend, do not make an enemy. Friends are assets, while enemies are liabilities. Very truly yours. ARTHUR S. GRAY Los Angeles, Calif.

We cannot afford to march along in the path of ignorance. We must realize the important part: the race of puts will be called upon to play, in the days to come, and begin at once to shape our courses for the dawning on that day.

The minds of the statesmen of France, of England, of Japan, of America, Italy and other well recognized governments are now concentrated upon the plan of arranging the economic as well as the political order of society. Their plans are given out to the world, while humanity everywhere feels somewhat satisfied that an honest effort is being made to bring about a settlement of the great questions that have been perplexing the human race ever since the war of 1914-1918.

Such a feeling on our part caused us to believe that the Constitution of the United States of America was written for Negroes, as well as the Constitution of England, France, Italy, Germany and other countries where Negroes happen to have their present domicile, either as citizens or as subjects. That we suffer so much today under whatsoever flag we live is proof positive that constitutions and laws, when framed by the early advocates of human liberty, never included and were never intended for us as a people.

I repeat that it is silly for the black Britisher to depend upon the statesmanship of David Lloyd George to extricate him from his condition of servitude. It is more than foolish for the black French colonial to depend upon the statesmanship of Montsaint Blaud to lead him out of that colonial serfdom which he undergoes Race Must Realize That White Statesman Are Speaking for White People—Must Not Continue to Be Flattered And Deceived—U.N.I.A. Seeks to Bring Negro Into One Harmonious Whole Hour Has Struck For Fullest Display of Negro Manhood----400,000,000 Negroes Must Not Created In Image and Likeness of God, Negroes Must Realize Their Right to Enjoy Their Inheritance, Says President-General to the interest of white Frenchmen, and so it is also foolish on the part of the black Italian colonial to expect anything of consideration from white Italian statesmen, and so it would be foolish on the part of the black Americans to expect much from the statesmanship of today, because it is but reasonable to conclude that from what we have seen and heard and experienced this is the time when each race and nation is looking out for itself, at the expense of the other. As a people we have been flattered and deceived for hundreds of years, because of which we find ourselves today leaderless, purposeless, drifting on the ocean of time, like a barque without a rudder; but, thank Heaven, at this very critical moment we have been able to advance among ourselves the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which seeks to unite Negroes everywhere throughout the four corners of the globe, to bring them into one mighty whole of four hundred millions, with the grand objective of freeing the continent of Africa, and there establish a republic and an empire over which we shall exercise control and protect ourselves from the wicked and sinister designs of the other races and nations of the world, who are determined to subjugate Africa and keep her in perpetual slavery. manhood. As four hundred millions of people we cannot allow ourselves to be trampled under foot for another century, another decade or another year. The time has really come when the four hundred millions of us scattered throughout the world must rise as one man in our demand for human justice, for human rights. You must realize, men and women of the Negro race, that you were created in the image of your Divine Father and that you have as much right to enjoy the benefits of your inheritance as any other race in the world. Africa is the heritage of every black man or woman. Caring not whether he be born in Africa, America, the West Indies, or South or Central America, he has a claim legal, moral and divine or Africa that cannot be disputed. Now Is The Time Now is the time, therefore for us to wage a universal campaign for this our heritage. When a man is robbed of his property, he does not go begging for it, but goes boldly and demands it in the name of the law and in the name of justice. Now that Africa is being robbed from the Negro peoples of the world, it is not for them to beg for it; it is for them to organize their forces intellectually, financially, industrially, commercially, politically, physically, and go out and demand it. It is not a question of asking who is there, and if it is possible for us to displace the intruder. It is for us to organize with the forces that we have between heaven and earth and free Africa. The world is not yet at a standstill; the world still is in chaos; yes, in confusion, and out of this confusion will come many more upheavals that will shake the very foundations of the world itself. Fool not yourselves in believing that the conferences that have been held, and will be held in the very near future, are sufficient to settle the disgruntled state of the world, the dissatisfied condition of humanity. They have not gone down to the root of all evils that give cause to the great discontent of today, and until they reach down to the core of human discontent, they will never be able to establish a permanent government in a settled world. With best wishes I have the honor to be Your Obedient Servant.

Balley, president of the Toronto Division. U. N. I. A., who spoke in fervent style, touching the hearts of those who heard him, from the words, "Why Will Ye Die?" The Hon. M. Jeter, of the fifteenth N. J. division also gave a heart-stirring address using an his thème "Keep Up the Fight—The Goal is in Sight." The crowd at this meeting was an indication of what was to come later in the evening. It was just about 8:30 p. m. when the Vice-President, R. R. Petilla, opening the meeting asked the audience to stand, as the processional hymn was sung. The U. A. Legions, the Black Cross Nurses, and the Junior Cadet Corps gave a splendid exhibition, and the spirit gleaming in their eyes told of "A Day to Come." Prof. Ulrich Hassell and his band, as usual furnished a splendid musical program, and added much to the evening's entertainment. The opening ode was with a great and emotional expression, that is to be witnessed only among a people who are burning with a deep desire to be free. After the prayers from the faithful "fathing of the President's Hymn" to "All Creation," Mime. M. L. T. De Masa, Assistant International Organizer, assumed the charisma of the meeting, and introduced the various speakers and others, who helped to make the evening's program the great success it was. Mrs. M. Dume, at the piano, rendered splendid service, and deserves great compliment. Miss Beatrice Francis, in a dramatic radial entitled "Go Back!" received the plaudits of the audience, as also Mrs. Frank Rhoden, who rendered a beautiful solo. Then with the announcements for the week and the contributions out of the way, the chairman introduced the Rev. DeJuge, who spoke from a heart full of joy and the indying determination to do his part for the fulfillment of the desires of a race struggling to be free. LIBERTY HALL, N. Y. June 9th. All roads led to Liberty Hall tonight. Long before the time appointed for the opening of the meeting the Thin Folks! Here's 5 Pounds of Solid Flesh or Money Back Boyce's Laboratories, Inc., 62 W. 14th Street, New York City peats were all taken and still the crowds came. Old Liberty Hall presented a scene like the days gone by, when the fervor of African Redemption was burning high; and the spirit manifested seemed to be a stimulus to the speakers as they warmed up to their subjects. Seated on the platform were Judge Nicholas Kleinf, of Cincinnati; Hon. J. A. Craigen, High Commissioner of Michigan, Illinois and other states; Hon. E. B. Knox, Personal Representative of the Hon. Marcus Garvey; Hon. Mme. M. L. T. Demasi, Assistant International Organizer; Mrs. E. Capra, President of the Hon. Robert B. Rutherford, retary; Hon. Milton Kelly, of the Brooklyn Chapter; Hon. Duncan, ex-President of the Montclair Division; Rev. Derrick, President of the Monroe Street Chapter; Hon. J. A. Boltrum, ex-Commissional of Georgia and N. Carolina, and others. Mrs. M. McCartney, lady Vice-President, was absent on account of illness. The fire of Garveyism glowed afresh, and enthusiasm ran high, as the audience listened with rapt attention to the several speakers as they recounted the progress made by the great world-wide organization which is pointing the race of Negroes to real manhood, and to a place in the sun. The applause which punctated the addresses at various intervals were more than surface cries. They were expressions of the heart feelings of a people that are determined to be free: and who would gladly go to death for the securing for themselves and for their homeland, the freedom which they so much desire. To the Assistant International Organizer, Hon. E. B. Knox, officers Messrs. M. and E. B. Knox, and the mobile gathering here assembled, I assure you came to listen to Judge Klein, one who has given his time and knowledge with the view of bringing harmony and peace among humanity. Tonight, I bring you greetings from the Detroit division, which is there yet, in their own way, attempting to demonstrate in the fullest sense that there must be a government for the black race. And so they are attempting to accomplish that objective. We shall go to the convention with that one objective, because for twenty years we of the University Negro Improvement Association have placed on the 10,000 square miles of African territory. We shall go and do all in our power, and let the world know four hundred million black-men shall have a government for themselves. "This can only be accomplished by sticking to our motto, 'One God, One Alm, One Dentyin', which is our guiding star, and letting the world know that princes shall come out of Egypt. "Go on with the spirit of Garveyism, so that our children's children will glorify our name in the spirit of the Universal. Negro Improvement, and let the world realize that Negroes also were master of creation. "Who has more knowledge, and yellow men have gone out and acquired nationhood. It is time for the black man to arise from his lethargy, and acquire his homeland Africa, and a government of his own." Hon, E. B. Knox "To the Hon. Assistant International Organizer, Hon. J. A. Craigen, High Commissioner, Hon. Judge Nicholas Klein, Officers and Members of the Garvey Club, and Universal Negro Improvement Association: I am indeed excited by the progress we are here to do all we can to promote the welfare of humanity. I have been traveling extensively through the country, and find enthusiasm is running high in the hearts and minds of our co-workers in this military service and the university is no priority. A new campus is being built on the west side of the university on the woods and the boundaries of other reserves. The power that means the sum to salen and to moving to the new bit, is the power and energy that will protect the new, diverse campus and bids him an opportunity to build of the Negro people in the world. We have a mission to build the main for black students and help us going to write the constitution. The power that means the university is no respector of bargains. "Tonight, we have a man that has labored zealously, not of our race, but one that knows something of our race. He knows how our leader was handicapped both by forces within and without. He too has traveled over the country to awaken Negroes to race-consciousness, and racial upheil. He labored night and day with the wife of the Hon. Marcus Garvey in behalf of our leader's release, and tonight he comes to us to further impress on the minds of those that have been hailing between two opinions as to whether they will join the rank and file of the greatest organization, and save themselves as a race of people from the impending danger that threatens humanity and their very existence. Hon. Judge Nicholas Klein of Clackmann My good friends, to me it is a great pleasure to be in New York City. I always enjoy being in Liberty Hall. I show your patriotism in coming here in large numbers on this warm night. I wish that our good friend Hon. Cralgen could tell you of the fine meeting that we had in Detroit, Mich. You are not alone in New York City in this big drive for Negro redemption. A few days ago I spoke in a Baptist church in Louisville, Ky, and after I got through the pastor rose, and stated that that was the worm thing that he had heard. He told his people that the only redemption for the Negro was Heaven. Bush leaders are content to keep the Negroes jumping and screaming in the churches, and be satisfied as long as they do not wake up to the danger that surrounds them, of their material existence as a people. They tell them about the sweet "bye-and-bye"; instead of the "sweet now-and-yet," they tell them that their leaders will wake up and cease putting heaven in the skies, and put some on earth, for the betterment of their race. You are the minority people here, and yet you sing "My Country Tis of Thee." How much of America do the Negroes own? For two thousand years they have been talking of Heaven, and how near have you got to it? For twelve years you have been speaking of nation-hood, and to this day form which is in the smanking; and when achieved, will serve to protect you and your posterity, like other races and nations. The Negro is in a strange land against his wishes. You were stolen and brought here under the worst conditions. Many died from the effects of it all. The whites came here and drove the Indians out and today only a few are found on the reservations. Why is the white man so aggressive? It is because there was a keen struggle on the part of the white man to survive the extreme cold climate in which he was planted. He was taken from a warm climate, and so he Got an easy prey in the exploiters. As one white man, I say the time will soon be here when a reckoning will come, and the white man can only say, "Your country, Africa, your Motherland, is the place that is yours by right." I say it is going to happen. If you want your country you must organize and get there. Garvey came to New York, and saw the condition of his race. He saw them strutting on Seventh Avenue, in fine clothes on Sunday, and on Monday morning they were behind a mop and pail. This condition went to his very heart, and he hit once set out to try and make men and women of his people. It went like wild fire and it grew until a contract was made with the Liberian government through Charles King, president of that country, for colonization. Machinery, was sent, and Commissioners and everything was working well from 1822 to 1925 until it was discovered that the British Rubber. Trust controlled the world's rubber, supply, and the Firestone Company got busy and focused their attention on Liberia. They, saw the good lands that would bring them wealth in the rubber trade, and they quickly sought ways and means to obtain possession. Garvey got ships to trade with the different islands and countries for commerce, and as it began to grow there were those who endeavored to ruin the possibilities of the black man. The monopoly of the Libertian contract, the monopoly of the Black Star Line, was wrapped up in the framing up of Garvey. They were not satisfied with that only, but they took there books with thirty thousand names who were supporters of the steamship enterprise. Thirty thousand questionaires were sent out to the public, and only eighteen was disatisfied and those eighteen were employees of the government. And so Garvey was imprisoned. Charles King broke his contract with the U. N. J. A. because Garvey's influence was so great. He analyzed that with Garvey in Liberia he couldn't win another election. He quickly signed the stigma contract with the Firestone company, after when Garvey was released and immediately sent out of the country. I called on the British Ambassador and asked him what he thought of Garvey. His reply was "Got it by a 'wrong-gross man'." The late Jerry Linn Garvey state from the Negroes in all. The Firestone Trust Company is robbing your country and will continue to do so until the Negroes wake up to rule themselves. If freedom is wanted by you then you must keep on sacrificing and supporting your organization. These your leaders seated on this rostrum are making their sacrifices to this great work, therefore they must put the program over. In going over the records and files of Carver's case I found that he was no more guilty than I am, and I am ashamed to say that a good many Negroes were in that frame-up against him. Garvey has made the supreme sacrifice for his race, that you may be elevated, and face the future and build Ethiopia's Negro Republic. These young boys and girls will be the men and women of tomorrow, and the task will be done. You shall know the truth and the truth will set you free. Slavery has not been abolished. Instead of owning the man, they now own the jobe. Slavery is here and you are in the minority. Africa, the richest country in the world has diamonds enough to buy this island of Manhattan. The platinum, gold, silver, and minerals are almost unbounded. Portuguese, British, Dutch, and French, all have failed, and now it is for the Africans to take a hand and make a success of their country. Thousands of churches have been built by the Negroes where only lipservice is held, and the material side of life seem to be forgotten by, the Negro at large. The white man is not so religious as you may think. My friends, a bird cannot fly with one wing. The white man is clever and resourceful. The power of organization, the power of thought, is greater than who is true to man. My friends, there is more true religion in the U. N. I. A. than in many of the churches. Freedom is true religion. Garvey started something that the world cannot stop. When hatred and fear have been removed, think what the Negro shall establish in the homeland; Negro music; Negro Navy, presidents, cabinets, ambassadors, and then she shall have the respect of the other nations. This was the experience of Columbus who set out determined to achieve. Behind him lay the Great Azores, behind the gate of Hercules. Behind him not the ghost of shores, before him only shoresless seas. The good mate said must we pray, for lo: the very stars have gone. Erte Admiral, speak what shall I say.

THE ORDER OF TOUSSAINT LOUVERTURE Toussaint is a moral institution, established by virtuous men and women with the praiseworthy object of recalling to our minds the most sublime truth, in the midst of the most innocent and social pleasure, and founded on the principle of liberation, brotherly love, and charity; and intended to promote the principles of friendship, and brotherhood among its members. Truth is its center. It points out to its disciples a correct knowledge of the Grand Architect of the Universe, and the moral laws which he has ordained for their government. This great order of Toussaint L'Overture is a helping hand in building up ourselves, pointing out the way of a better day. The G. U. O. of Toussaint L'Ovette was founded by Samuel H. Maude in America and incorporated as a membership corporation; and in organization into four branches: a Japawai Lodge for children; a chapel-society for women; and a lodge for men. In the South Pacific Islands, Japawai Temple organized by a Negro, from a Negro, for the Negro people of the world, with its own passports, dates and dates.

It is quite natural that a person of the caliber of Congressman P. H. LeGardin, the Socialist candidate, should likely have taken a government attitude towards the Haitian Republic. His attack is an open alliance with these forces that are seeking to dominate and oppress the Haitians. His attitude is only the continuation of his old anti-Negro campaign, of many years standing, which originates from a false ideology of the superiority of the white Spanish over the Negro in Latin America. He uses this absurd idea to hide his ignorance of international affairs and to shield the role of imperialism in Haiti. This same insincere and superficial attitude was manifested by La Guardia in another instance. During the years of 1918-1920 when the U. S. Government was taking very drastic measures against the bootleggers, La Guardia was issuing very nice and sympathetic statements of a fund-raising dry character. Now he has suddenly taken a liquor apopagandist. He wants to have the wet champion" - He tries to be on the safe side of the ruling powers. This same up-to-date wet congressman in his "I am telling you confidentially" anti-Haitian articles in the Evening Graphic of March 28, April 5, and April 31, proxies again how superficial and ignorant he is of affairs in Haiti. The American people who are acquainted with the history of Haiti and the Haitian people, with their gallant struggle for liberty and independence, can readily see that the articles of La Guardia are unfounded and absurd. He again in these articles brings forth the theory that the dark races will always be oppressed because they are an inferior race. In position, especially, must be brought over the subjugation of the U.S.A. because the dependence from France through the extermination of the great, heroic army of Napoleon, under the commandership of F. ambeaux in 1804 in "bloody battles." And our congressman mourns the loss of the Napoleonic army; but has he ever stopped to think of the disaster the U. S. marines have brought to the Haitian people through years of "peaceful occupation." I wish to inform the congressman that if men of the type of Toussaint Louverture, Dessalline, Capoile Lac Mort, Klingen Christophie and the other heroes who were responsible for driving out Napoleon's army, and establishing freedom in Haiti, were alive today, much of the suppression and suffering inflicted on the lives of the Haitian people by General John W. Russell, the two marines who have been fighting there for 14 would have been avoided. Of course, John Russell would have done like John Waller did in the Philippines a few years ago, where he set fire to the four corners of the capital. Or as the U. S. is now doing in Nicaragua and Mexico. The question here is which is the stronger oppressor. Napoleon had only his large army, but the U. S. Imperialists have aerosplains and bombs and marines to subjugate colonial peoples. I might suggest to the congressman if he insists on writing articles on Haiti, to take a trip there or at least go to the 42nd St. Library and look up some material on Haiti. It will no doubt help him straighten out some of the foolish and erroneous ideas on the subject. If Mr. La Guardia at least showed in his articles that he had absorbed anti-Haitian, pro-capitation propaganda as illustrated in the writings of the authors of "Black vicious propaganda has been used to harm the Haitian people. It has been used to harm the Haitian people and has accepted the rule of justifying the American policy. As Haiti, of whitewashing the crimes committed by the U. S. against the Haitian people since 1916. As for the Haitian people, they did not give attention to these writings for they considered the books as obvious "bought and paid for" propaganda against the Haitian people. The authors in every case have chosen upon the worst features of the Haitian people and elaborated upon them to ask an extent as to give the impression that nothing else exists in Haiti. Such vicious propaganda can only fool superficial minds like Congressman La Guardia. The American people and the oppressed nations of the world cannot be fooled by such lies. If some of the intellectuals, who insist on writing articles about countries they know nothing about, would use some of their intelligence to examine the actual conditions existing in the various countries—the social and economic conditions that produce conditions of slavery and oppression, they would be of more service, and would be forced, to bring before the people of the United State the heroic battles that are being fought at this time by the oppressed colonial peoples all over Latin America. These intellectuals talk of "voodoo magic, but not a word do they say about Augusto Sandino of Nicaragua and his heroic struggle against the U. S. marines in Nicaragua; nothing about the growing consciousness of the Mexican workers and peasants and the recent organization of the "Workers and Peasants Bloc," which party is putting a candidate into the field for the next election; nothing about the renewed revolution in China and the organization of workers and peasant armies there; nothing about the imperialist nations in every colonial and semi-colonial country in the world. They never take notice of the fact that for five consecutive years the African Equatorial Region has been suffering from the increasing enslavement of the French government, and that the Negroes there are fighting bravely against such oppression. Why does not Mr. La Guardia mention a word about the "institution" of Jim-Crowism in the United States where lynching of Negroes is a daily occurrence, where the Negro workers are constantly faced with starvation because of race discrimination on the job and elsewhere. Those are inimitable to the white population overlooked. But what is one to expect from a man who has for years been playing on the side of those who had greater advantages to offer.

HODGE KIRHON: Charleston, S. C. The U. N. I. A. held its regular mass meeting Sunday, May 26. The meeting was called to order by the President, S. B. Rome. The opening ode, "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," was sung. The program was as follows: A vocal solo by Mrs. Tyre; a paper reed by Mrs. Cooper, which was well rendered and received much applause, A trio, "Sten Away to Jesus." A Paul Lawrence Dunbar selection by Miss Mabel Jackson. The speaker of the hour was Rev. Turpin and his subject was, "Rise Up and be a Nation." The meeting was well attended by friends and members. We had two men to join. The meeting was closed in the usual manner. On Sunday, May 5th, 1929, which was "Garvey's Day," a very pleasant evening was enjoyed by all who were present for this special occasion. The chaplain, Bro. A. Wedderburn, performed the religious ceremonies, after which the meeting was turned over to the president, Bro. George Thomas. Following was the program for the evening: Reading of the front page of the Negro World, Miss G. Harrison, secretary, Ladies' Division. Opening address, Mr. George Thomas, president of the division. Singing of the President General's hymn, Congregation. Address, Mrs. M. Bennett, lady president. Song: "Where Jesus Leads There Garvey Follows." Congratration. Address, Mr. J. A. Brown, schoolmaster. Chorus, the Misses G. Harrison, L. Baler and Mr. Sam. C. Pinnock. The singing of the Ethiopian Anthem brought this much enjoyed evening to its close at 9 p.m. Prepared for Eventual itics—Not Stauding in Craven Mood By Mrs. KATIE JONES. Atlanta, GA. We are now in the midst of a discharge. We could not turn back if we would, and would not if we could. We are on trial before the world, and must triumphantly meet our responsibilities or ignominiously fail in the presence of mankind. "We stand on the threshold of a new world." It rests with us to decide whether in the opening of this new era we shall march forward to fresh triumphs, or whether at the outset we shall generally cripple ourselves for the contest. In the Negro a weakling, to shrink from world-work that must be done, to compete with the powers of the world? No! The new giants of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, glorious in strength, look into the future, with fearless and eager eyes and spades as strong men to run a race. We do not stand in ceaven mood, making to be spared the task, oriling us we gaze on the content. No! We challenge the极极 privilege of doing the work that prejudice afflicted us and we face the ensuing years high of heart and example of such that our people in giving the right be war with some better appearances by their nerves, have attained to the people of another. To the Editor of the Negro World: A California Negro publication of recent date carried the announcement of a vicious perpetration of white intolerance in the city of Fort Worth, Texas. According to the report, a theater was erected by the colored people of that city, with the sign: "This theater is for Colored People. No Whites Admitted." The white people upon learning of this willing segregation, organised and burned the theater to the ground. Such conduct on the part of the Southern white people proves conclusively that the treatment of colored people is attributed to weakness or inability to protect themselves. A strong African government would have collected a handsome indemnity for such reckless and wanton conduct; but where no one has to pay, the saturnalia of injustice proceeds uninterrupted. Every race-loving leader should fall in line with the program of African redemption and champion the principles for which it stands without equivocation. "Such a step should be taken pow. Religious leaders will find much valuable theology in the program of the U. N. I. A., a platform that compels respect and will arrest the intelligent attention of every real stateman throughout the world. The program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association stands for just what the name implies: a universal improvement for all the Negroes in the world. The American Negro is unable to protect his civil, social economic or political rights without strengthening the program of African Nationalism. He must learn to concentrate upon his own condition, for therein lies the secret of his weakness and denial of civic justice. Any government that takes advantage of one's weakness or lack of knowledge, is an unsafe government for any people so mutilated. The greatest Negro in America suffers because of the condition or treatment accorded his weaker brother. A chain can never be any stronger than his weakest link. America as a nation is strong because of her industrial and commercial development. Negroes living there are weak because of their disorganization and continual exploitation. Churches are divided; lodges and fraternities are divided—no central interest is being supported by such methods. We must come together for the common good of the race. We must fight for the common rights of the race. No other race is going to do for us what we should do for ourselves; and he who is waiting or looking for such a day is but looking in vain. We must think for ourselves and act for ourselves, having due regard for the rights of others. No other course will lead us to liberty and freedom. The U. N. I. A. stands for all the Negroes, all the time. Such a policy has made very strong and successful people. It is the only panacea for ourills. Apply it and watch the results. Uncompromisingly yours: ARTHUR S. GRAY, Los Angeles, Cal. Senator William H. King, Democrat of Utah, by request last Tuesday presented in the Senate a memorial signed by the Harlem Bar Association, through its president, and the Interdenominational Preachers' Meeting of New York and Vicinity. The memorial petitioned, the Senate to appoint, a committee of Senators and to empower that committee to make a complete, fair and impartial investigation of conditions in Haiti and the conduct, of Haitian affairs under the American occupation with a view to legislation that will free Haiti from the military control of the United States. The memorial was received by the Senate committee on foreign relations. INFORMATION WANTED Mys. Elizabeth Fraser, 38 Albert street, Smith Village, Kingston, Jamaica, B. W.

One provided for the arbitration of international disputes arising between the two countries. The other provided for the submission of international disputes, in which agreement cannot be reached through diplomatic channels, to a permanent international commission for conciliation. Both treaties were signed at Addiz Ababa, on January 26, 1920. They were signed on behalf of the United States by 'Addison E. Southard, minister resident and consul general, and on behalf of Ethiopia by King Tafaril, his apparent to the throne and regent plenipotentiary, for Empress Zeodilu and himself. After ratification by the Senate, the treaties were made public. Africans to Debate The African Klub of Howard University will hold a debate on June 1 at the Twelfth Street Y.-M. C. A., at 8 p. m., on the subject, "Resolved. That Colonization of Africa by European Countries is of Material Benefit to that Continent." Messrs. R. B. Phillips and H. K. Nyabungo will debate for the affirmative side, and Messrs. Bolag McCarthy and Banko-Wright will defend the negative. The organization exists to foster closer relationship and mutual understanding between the Negro students of the world. Invents Automatic S. O. S. Radio Signal HAVANA, Cuba—Pedro C. Perez, a member of the Cuban Naval Signal Corps, has given civilization an automatic radio telegraph key that sends distress signals and gives the location of the trouble. Engineers who have examined the Cuban's invention report it highly practical. Attached to a radio transmitter aboard ship or plane, it will click out a call for help, give the position in longitude and latitude and also send a "go ahead" signal. The device weighs seven and one-half pounds, having been reduced in weight over an earlier model. Its lightness makes it adaptable for airplane use, its inventor said. He also explained that it would be a valuable aid to small pleasure crafts which carried radio but not an operator. Its operation consists merely of setting a number of keys to send the proper data and dashes. The machine continues to repeat them, until stopped. Lack of Knowledge Of Racial History Deplored by Dabney DILLWYN, VN. According to a report issued by T. L. Dabney, principal of the Buckingham Training School, Negro high school students have some knowledge of the history of the Negro race or what the Negro is doing. The answers of 497 high school students, questioned by Mr. Dabney, indicated that a paucity of the students read Negro periodicals or know anything of various organizations working for the advancement of the Negro of Amerien, and of Negro leaders.

The hall, though not a spacious one, was bright and lively with its new coat of paint, the same all arranged, and everything was set in order for the coming of the visitors. The officers were the essence of courtesy, and did everything for the comfort of the visitors. Just shortly after the appointed time, 3:30 p. m.; the hall was full to overflowing, and the president, Mr. Randolph, presiding, announced the opening of the meeting. After the adoption of the minutes, the president, made the opening address, outlining the aim of the club, to work for the realization of a Negro national government in Africa, the unification of a national government in Africa, and the revival of African national history. The president then introduced Mr. Hodge, organizer of the club, who unveiled the picture of the founders of the club, and gave a short outline of the organization. Following this, Mr. H. Bellley was next called upon at the unveiling of the picture of Frederick Douglas, and gave a vivid and instructive outline of the characteristics of this great Negro, and his work for the Abolition of Slavery. Mr. Martin, who was to outline the fine points in the character and life of Booker T. Washington, at the unveiling of his picture, not having arrived. Mr. Ayres, secretary of the club, substituted for him and did credit to the subject. Mr. Martin, who should have spoken for Booker T. Washington, came in during the course of the talk given by Mr. Ayres, and at the close of Mr. Ayres address, was called upon by the president to speak. After excusing himself for not being able to prepare for the task, Mr. Martin delivered a splendid address, which was highly appreciated by the gathering: The Rev. R. T. Brown, editor of The Negro World, was introduced to outline the life and work of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, founder and president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. While Mr. Brown told the story of the life of the world-famed founder and leader of the U. N. I. A., the friends in the audience listened with rapt attention, at several times giving expression to their pett-up feelings. At the close of the routine there was great applause. Mr. Nebiss was asked to respond on behalf of the club, and warmed up right heartily to the occasion. After a prayer the president asked the friend to stand and join in the spirit of "Ethiopia" the Ethiopian National Anthem, which was cheerfully joined in by all present. Liont, Clarke, of the U. A. Lergan, was among those who attended this enlarged meeting, which was brought to a close at about 6:30 p.m. after refreshments had been served. An enjoyable and profitable time was spent. The officers of the club wish to announce that there are special meetings every first and third Sunday of each month, beginning at 3:20 p.m. All are invited. Don't fail to be there. Attention!

The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World Advertisement. In this particular we want every Negro, everywhere, to visualize what it is possible for us to accomplish with a little money and a determination, backed by common sense, and a close attention to business, and to learn every angle of commercialism. We are looking forward to see the formation and the functioning of Negro business enterprises, prepared to enter every line known to man, and to see them run to successful conclusion. These enterprises must be engaged in so as to provide the means necessary for the payment of the bills which we shall have to meet in the days ahead. It is a significant gesture which Congressman DPriest; the only colored member of Congress, has made Negro youths of Chicago to the naval and Military Academies of the United States. We must be free from all kinds of entanglements. We must be able to perform our tasks without let or hindrance. There must be no stumbling block left in our pathway to success, freedom, and Negro Nationalism. So it behoves us to lay at least a sound-economic structure for the financing of all undertakings which we will ever conserve. THAT the cause of African Redemption has been greatly strengthened by the Labour Party of Great Britain being returned to power by the electorate of that country in the elections of last week is clearly apparent. Labour's elevation to the government this time shows which way public opinion is blowing in the British Isles. The refining effects of Christian civilisation and culture should spare these young men the indignities and ostracisms of a leas cultured period. At least an opportunity will be afforded to translate, our lofty preachments into concrete action.—The Star of Zion. It ought to be clear to all of us that the great medium of exchange which is in universal demand, which is the very lifeblood of the prosperity of the great and ruling nations of the world, is also an absolute necessity for us, and no opportunity must be lost for securing control of as large an amount of that commodity as it is possible to obtain. Now that Labour is seated in the saddle of government the Negro peoples of the World have reason to fejoice, not that Labour, as headed by Ramsay MacDonald is less alive to the interests of the British Empire, and therefore less willing to maintain the tradition of the past, as far as his country is concerned; but because of the fact that Labour, and Labour alone of all the political parties now extant, can be expected to take a sane, sensible, and sober view of the longings and aspirations, and determination of the peoples of the other races of the world, in respect of flow, when, where, and by whom their countries, and the lands of their fathers shall be governed. Something Wrong! Negroes everywhere, must buy, sell, and exchange; must buy land, houses, and other forms of property, and hold on to them, as the sheet anchors of our commercial and industrial enterprises. There is something radically wrong with a group of people who refuse to help relieve their own burdens. The day of throwing bouquets is gone forever. The Afro-American must face the facts as they exist. We won't mind thinking by fooling ourselves into thinking by everything is all right. Everything is all wrong of Afro-Americans, is all wrong. The sooner we face these facts the quicker we will begin to work for our own salvation, the sooner we will attain our rightful place as American citizens. -Philadelphia, Tribune. It will always be our duty to call the attention of the Negro peoples of the world to this need; urging them on to action, leading the way for others to follow, and preparing the foundation for a sound economic structure as the bedrock upon which all our undertakings must rest; and, for the independence which it will give to the race in the carrying out of its projects. And we shall keep on pointing this way; never letting up in our attempts to rouse the race to the needs of the hour, and the necessity for action, so that when the testing time comes, as come it will, we will be able to carry out our plans as we laid them down; so that we shall not have reason to be ashamed. But if we refuse to act, and to begin at once to lay the foundation of a sure, sound economic future, we shall have more than reason to be ashamed. IT IS FOR US TO DECIDE. We all can remember that it was not so long ago, when Labour was in power that the work of construction on the fortifications of Singapore base was ordered stopped. Notwithstanding the fact that a succeeding government reversed the order of the Labour Party, it tends to show that Labour believes, and correctly so, that there ought to be peace and justice, in preference to imperial expansion, and the unwanted domination of the men of other lands. The party headed by Ransay MacDonald, Thomas and others think in terms of humanity. They do not refuse to recognize the rights of other peoples. They too know what it is to be oppressed, and downtrodden. They too has been a stubborn and dogged fight against capitalism, and the heinous system by which it exploits the lands of other peoples, without their consent, because capitalism, as it is known among present day nations has always been backed up by the guns and bayonets of its country, which is proven by a well-known British proverb—"The trade follows the flag." And British bayonets and British cannon have time and again been used in the interests of British capital the wide world over. Develop the Positive Psychology There is a great necessity for a positive psychology to be developed within the Negro race which today finds itself at the bottom rung of the lad- RUNNYMEDE AND KINGSTON Liberty University For Summ Miss Berniza. De Mena, Daug De Mena, Assistant Int Graduates—Has Visited and Central Amer SEVEN hundred and fourteen years ago, the barons of England, tired of absolutism, and its utter disregard for human rights, met at Runnymede, England, and made certain demands upon the then King of England, John of Anjou. History tells us that when John heard their demands he sneered, "They may as well ask my crown." But he had to deal with stern men that day. They knew what they wanted and were determined to get it or die. And they got their demands. The concessions they wring from a reluctant and sneering king that historic day today forms the bedrock of British freedom, and is known the wide world over as "The Mugna Charita." But the man in the street in the British Isles; the man in the majority, upon whose shoulders falls the greater part of the burden for the maintenance of the armaments which have time and again been used in forwarding the ambitions and imperialistic schemes of the capitalists has seen a new light, especially since the rise of Soviet Russia, and has begun to realize the great evil, and an unnecessity one at that—of imperial expansion; especially since such expansion generally has to be carried out against the wishes of other peoples, and sometimes at the cost of shedding the blood of innocent men and women who dare to defend their fatherland. Barely six weeks to come, a group of determined Negroes, sons and daughters of Ethiopia or Africa, whose ancestors laid the foundation of the world's civilization, who founded the first system of law, upon which all other systems have been modeled, will meet in Kingston, Jamaica, British West Indies, to formulate demands which will be made known to the world in general, and to the imperial nations in particular. Worthy descendants of a great race, they will uphold with honor and with dignity, all the traditions and greatness of their mighty ancestors. Shades of the great Tharouhs, and mighty Zuth and Matteibels, and Ashanti warriors, will lower around that great meeting place, as they will write another page on the history of the struggles for freedom, and add new lustre to the glory that once pervaded Ethiopia, the homeland of the free. Hon. M. L. T, DeMean, 355 Lenox Ave. New York City. Dear Madam: With the dawn of this new day it is, to be hoped that the existence of the swash-buckling British jingo, who flourished right down to the opening days of the present century are numbered, and that the Labour Party of Great Britain coming into power at this time will mark the ushering in of a period of common sense and justice, when the rights of fellow men will weigh more than the proud and haughty demeanor of the capitalist overlords. This will serve to acknowledge receipt of your letter with U. S. money orders for $15 on account of rathroad fare for Miss Berniza and $12 as contribution to the school by the loyal member of the Garvey Club. As per course, we wish to let personally that the little leaves for New York direct tomorrow morning at 10:18 and arrive in New York at Penn Station at 7:40 p. m. First in this belief, and none the less determined to free themselves from every form of serfdom, and servitude, and bent upon the redemption of Africa, the Negro peoples of the world look forward to the realization of the dreams, and the final triumph of their cause. They will feel the surge of their breasts, as Hasdrubal, Hamiecar, Hannibal, and the great Moors of the north of the fatherland will breathe in spirit their benedictions on that gathering, and will transmit their courage and their prowess to modern Ethiopians in this twentieth Century day, filling them with a greater determination than mankind has ever been able to conceive, since the earliest dawn of creation to the present day, and firing their souls and tuning their hearts for the greatest/conflict against wrong and against oppression, that it is possible for the mind of man to visualize. Please accept the thanks of the President, members of the faculty and student body for the interest which you have so kindly taken in the school by soliciting the above contribution. The common people in Great Britain are coming more to understand that it is better to have prosperity in their homeland, and to live and enjoy the blessings of peace, that is peace, rather than be shunted here and there all over the world, to be used as cannon-fodder, for the profits of the moneys class, under the guise of empire-building. Writer Calls on Ne Some Day Africa Will Send a Call for a Black President — Will the Negro Be Ready THE FUTURE OF THE BLACK RACE Mankind everywhere will hail with gladness the advent of Labour in the highest political places in Britain; and Labour's attitude against every form of oppression cannot but bolster up the faith and courage everywhere, of men who have been crushed under the heel of military occupation. This sign will be a signal for the Negro to renew with greater vigor, his protests against unwanted domination in his fatherland, and taxation without representation abroad. The decisions made and the conclusions reached at the convention, of which Runnymede will be but "child's play," will be spread abroad to all the sons of inen, and will be officially presented before the bar of civilization known as the "LEAGUE OF NATIONS," seeking ratification as did the barons of King John, at Runnymede in 1215. The burden of action in the right direction will rest on the signatory powers at the Geneva Convention table. Nevertheless, no matter which way the representatives of the various nations decide, the Negro will have, and has already reached his decision; and intends, under the direction of Him who called the Universe into being, to write his destiny, upon the signboard of heaven, clear and unmistakable, peacefully if allowed to; in letters of blood and fire if need be; for nothing under the skies, short of freedom and the complete redemption of his fatherland, will ever satisfy the souls of the Negroes of the present day. Because of these circumstances the awakened enlightened Negro of the Twentieth Century, at home and abroad, must lift up his voice, in unmistakable fashion, and make his demands known to all creation; must read again his Maker's promise, graven on the firmament, and resolve to free himself, and redeem the fatherland, Africa. BENNIE A. BEMBER How you ever given it a serious thought, mean a serious thought, way, down in life, so deep that you just got to get up and do something for the betterment of your future race? SHALL WE BE ASHAMED? "I IT WOULD be a reproach to us, as sons of Africa, to stand by, and watch the world go on, in scientific discoveries and inventions, without taking a part in pushing forward the hand on the face of the clock that determines the passing away of time, that measure of progress." Just think of the condition of the black people. It behooves every black man to think of the future. Oh! that every black man would think Think deep enough that he will not be satisfied with the present conditions. Think deep enough to crave for justice as any other race. Think deep enough to crave for a government of their own. Think so deep that riches or pleasure nor any thing can take, this thought from you. Think deep enough to get out of the old rut and join the new Negroes in getting a government of their own, in their Mother Africa. Thus spoke an eminent son of Africa recently, in a lecture before the West African Students Union in London, England. This is also a good admonition for the others of the sons and daughters of Africa, at home and abroad—Let us, each and every one, no matter where on earth we may be, begin at once, to make preparations, so that we will be able to take part in the great activities that are continually going on all around us, which make for progress and the advancement and forward march of the entire human race. We Negroes realize what great sacrifices it will entail on us. We know that once imperial mined men have decided that they will not loosen their struggle hold upon what is rightfully ours, our fatherland Africa, they will marshal all their great resources to crush our struggle for freedom. But ever the Negro in the Twentieth Century is crushed, if ever he can be crushed, rivers of blood must flow. We want to be just. We want peace. We want the friendship of the men of other races. We want the trade and intercourse with other men. But above all this we want freedom, and emancipation. We are determined that the lowest Negro, an emitter where he may We must be wise enough to realize, that in the present adjustment of prices, money is the basis of exchange between men, in the purchase and sale of all kinds of commodities.—To have enough of this splendid change so as to be able to carry out our plans more easily than with empty pennies. Therefore it is our bounded duty to begin at once, wherever we may happen to be, to utilise the things, the opportunities, and the circumstances and environments with which we come into contact each day of our lives. If every black man would give him his right thought and co-operation, it won't be long before there would be a great change in the composition of this Black men; and it would not be long before we shall have a government of our own in your Mother Country, Africa. Miss. think of the future. Think of your great generation. Surely you would add to our great condition, or would undertake this great condition. Instead of so much talk about lack of confidence and lack of co-operation among Negroes, there should be constant assertion of the fact that there is a steadily growing tendency toward co-operation and an increasing feelin' of confidence. It will be hard for the selfish, self-centered individual to see anything but distrust and jolousy when his pet schemes are not swallowed hook, line and sinker. In the main, however, the Negro masses are finding themselves and are constantly giving evidence in the men and women of their own race.—Cleveland Call and Post. "The Fruits of Victory" The whites thought they had gotten rid of the "menace," and "annoyance" of Negroes at the excusing lily-wave naval and military academies and in the regiments. After Ku Klux Klan Colonel Young, buoying Colonel Green and Davis on details fit for officers of lesser rank, and effectively disfranchising the southern Negroes, they thought that all was well. But they reckoned without considering the growing Negro communities in the North. It was inevitable that a Negro Congressman would sooner, or later be elected. Chicago did the job last November. Now, as one of the fruits of victory, we are able to break down discrimination in two very important branches of our government.—Pittsburgh Courier.

Man, God is offering up to us the richest country in the world, and all we have to do is to get up, and get it. Do you want it? Do you want money and gold? Do you want diamonds and all kinds of beautiful precious stones? It's all in Africa. And everything that a man needs is then, shall they, why not let us all put our hearts to the wheel, and point the penis to a Baldwin Africa! In the spring of 1928 Japan laid down her declaration as the Hague that she would fight any nation in defence of China. Meanwhile, Russia was occupying moor and parts of China's territory in Manchuria, splits of China's protests, being rough-shod over the Chinese and disregarding the Japanese negotiations and demands. In 1808 the Japanese government sought overtures with Russia in an effort to bring some reconciliation of Eastern affairs. But the negotiations ended in failure, the Russian Imperial Government abruptly and crudely told the Japanese minister that the then Petersburg government not only regretted the forsaken, but as a gateway to the Peninsula, Adding insult to injury, White Russia, drunk with power, dispatched Admiral-Alexief with: Viceroy over the Czar's possessions in the Far East, Mr. Kurino, the then Japanese minister at St. Petersburg, was informed by Baron Kornur, the Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs, that the recent conduct of Russia at Peking, Corea and Manchuria, was the cause of grave concern to the government of Korea, over the above reasons, Baron Kornur was present the following note to Count Lansdorf, Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs: "The Japanese Government is convinced that it is not the intention of the Government of the Czar of the Russians to remove from the two governments the cause for misunderstanding. After using its good offices in an honest effort to bring about an harmonious peace by arbitration, and with one course "repeated" rebuffs, has but one course to purge, and that is, the breaking off of diplomatic relations." Simultaneously, with the rupture of diplomatic relations, war was suddenly declared on the 6th of February, 1904. With the sword unheated, adorned in resplendent armour, the empire of the Rising Sun, like a thunder bolt from a clear sky, burst forth, intensely, as if were, upon the political burden, and announced herself, through her hands, unvenerated Emperor, as champion protector of Asia and solo defender of ALL the darker races of the world. That glorious morn in the spring of 1904, when the son of Heaven, his serene majesty, the Mikado of Japan, and Lord Defender of the Darker Races of the World, announced to his cabinet that he was ready to unsheath the sword in protection of China; to checkmate the white world in defense of the black and brown races of the world, and in honor of Japan, to force recognition, and world-wide equality. The Emperor immediately ordered the government to dispatch from Saecs, a fleet of seven seven-decked, eighteen battle-cruisers and fidelities of torpedo boats and destroyers, with many transports, under the command of Vice-Admiral Togo. To open immediate operations of war at Port Arthur. The government sent a second floor under Admiral Urge, while Togo proceeded to Arthur. The troops sent to Korea under Rear-Admiral Urge were landed on the morning of the 8th of February, 1904, after engagement with the Russian fleet at Kobe. The army of 30,000 Japanese soldiers seized and held Korea under the command of General Kuroki. Meanwhile, on the night of the Stn. Togo's torpedo boats were sent against the Russian fleet in the bay of Port Arthur and served its purpose by so seriously cripping the Russians that Togo was able to land a second body of troops at Korea, even with the loss of a single man. If its losses were Kuroki and Japan had an army of 50,000 men in Korea, comprising the First Japanese Army under General Kuroki, I now moving in force toward the Yalu. It is now the 4th day of April and the Japanese advance guards have renched the Yalu, and this formed the boundary between Korea and Manchuria. A skirmish followed near the mouth of the Urgia, the Russians falling back to the other side of the river. It is now April 20th, and—the main body of the Japanese army has arrived at the Yalu. The Russians on the other side were concentrating a force of twenty-five thousand to prevent the taps from crossing the Yalu. For ten days both armies were busy—preparing and maneuvering. The Japs carefully guarded their attacks, took good care to guard and conceal their forces, the mauling of their battles and the abstraction of all that they did. While the carelessness of the Russians in the same particulars was the difference that gave success to the one and brought defeat to the other.

Plight of Negroes In Cincinnati Negroes in Cincinnati Must Vote Solidly Know Power of Your Votes "Poverty and shame shall be in the mind of refractory insurrection: that regardate regimen shall be hallowed—Protesta, 1696, 1816. Poverty the wrecker of lives, that which has caused our prisoners, saymets, hospitals and poor houses to be overcrowded; also has caused man to become beautiful selfish. Many who through the task of Pate had this sceptre crossed their path accepted death rather than faced it. Paste respectable, intelligent women, who were worthy of good companionship have succumbed to the evils of the flesh, because of this monster. Before our eyes, we have seen honest balmy tempted to commit themselves. Poverty does not confine itself to any one race or people. Nevertheless, it seems to have dogged the colored man's footsteps for centuries. The other races of the earth, seem to know how to cage this monster, and while they are not absolutely free from its reaches, they can and will hold it at bay. There is no doubt about this. They shall be free from the "bread and butter" groups even at the expense of their colored brothers and sisters. The writer has asked time and again, "If God is going to stand aside and see his colored children go through this poverty-stricken life day after day, while the earth and other people have more than they really need?" This question has only one answer and, it is this: "There is nothing in the scriptures to show that God shall deliver his colored souls by a miracle. The God of Heaven cannot work that way. He is the law; the law cannot divide itself. God has always been the champion of the strong and the defender of the weak. However, the weak can be helped only through their recognition, and usage of the creative powers, inherited dauntlessness, and the eight-fold wisdom of their creator." The preceding answer to this vexing question speaks for itself. The colored preachers should do something about this. It is their duty to inspire the colored masses to abolish fear and ignorance for all time. Wherever poverty is evident it is safe to say that fear and ignorance are always its co-partners. Remove fear and ignorance and poverty disappears. Fear shall be stamped out, and love resurrected in its place. Ignorance shall give way to wisdom, understanding and beauty. Poverty must go. Editors, preachers and fraternal leaders are going to help stamp this curse—poverty. THE GREATEST CONCLAVE OF THE NEGRO IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD (8) The establishing of a daily paper in several large cities of the world to shape sentiment in favor of the entire Negro race, namely, in London, Paris, Berlin, Capetown, New York, Washington, Gold Coast, West Africa, and the several important islands of the West Indies. (1). The Political and Social Freedom of the entire Negro Race. (2). The presentation of proper evidence before the League of Nations for an adjustment of the International Race Problem. (3). The creating of a thorough educational system for the higher education of the Negroes of America, the West Indies and Africa, resulting in the founding of three Negro universities of a purely technical character—one in America, one in the West Indies and one in Africa. (2) The practical effort of uniting every unit of the Negro race throughout the world into one organized body. Editor, The Negro World: I feel it my duty, as a citizen and as one of the leaders of my race in Cincinnati, to advise and so help to shape their destiny in order to prevent any further embarrassments, and impediments of their progress in Cincinnati, politically, socially, and economically. (10) The formulating of plans to unify the religious beliefs and practices of the entire Negro race. (4) The creation of general economic opportunities in agriculture, industry and commerce for the Negro peoples of the world, whereby a brisk and proper trade relationship may develop between the Negroes of America, Africa, the West Indies and South and Central America to insure a stable economic status. (11) The establishing of a universal social code for the Negro race. For some time, we had GMP-Politics; and for the last four years we have had Class-Politics. Hence, it is now expedient and high time that the Negro THINK FOR HINSEL', and work for the best interest of the murders instead of the classics. (12) To make practical and execute each and every one of the above objects within ten years as a solution of the Negro problem, and as a means of saving the Negro race from further exploitation and possible extermination in the world. During the early spring, one of the prominent Negro dentists of the city came to my office with a petition; stating that the Charter Committee would endorse a Negro man as a candidate for the City-Council, providing he could get some of the leaders of the said race to sign the petition. I was the first one to sign said petition. But, to my surprise, on Monday, May 20, 1922, the Charter Committee announced the names of their nine candidates, and gave a reception in their honor at the Sinton Hotel. Unfortunately the Negro candidate, whom they were supposed to endorse, was not present at this reception, nor was his name announced or included in the nine announced by said Committee. Several eminent Negroes of Cincinnati attended this reception, and the white writers refused to even serve them. (5) The acquiring and controlling of agricultural lands for the scientific development of agriculture and also the establishment of factories and industrial institutions in various Negro communities to guarantee permanent employment to the Negroes of America, Africa, the West Indies, and South and Central America, Europe and Canada.

(16) To take up all and such matters as affect the interest of the Negro race. Negroes of Cincinnati, permit me to ask, "Will the Negro continue to be humiliated and mortified in this manner? First, the white Massons of Cincinnati absolutely refused to lot the Negro Massons of Cincinnati enter their Temple in Uniform. Second, at the Charter Committee's reception, white waiters absolutely refused to serve Negro guests. (17) To discuss and amend the Constitution of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and A. C. L. Let everybody attend this the Greatest Convention in the history of the Negro Race BY ORDER MARCUS GARVEY President General HENRIETTA VINTON DAVIS Artificial Plantation General KINGSTON, JAMAICA, B. W. L. The Negroes of Cincinnati raised quite a sum of money to assist in erecting a new $700,000 Y. W. C. A. Building, for white women. Negro women were under the impression, as they donated and helped to raise funds for the erecting of this institution, that they, too, would have free access to said institution; but unfortunately, they were only permitted to the Dedication by a Pass-Card signed by the Officials of the Blue-Vein T. W. C. A. at Eighth and Cutter streets. We have if the City of Cincinnati, one of the most modern and equipped hospitals of the world, and it is maintained by the first pages of Cincinnati, irrespectively of color, but, despite this, Negro physicians and nurses are not permitted to practice their practicings in said institution, which they have been maintained. out of our lives and that of our children. The fraternal orders and the absences are at last going to do some real service to the colored race. The preacher who does not see the necessity of the Negro Church co-operation in bringing about Negro economic and spiritual betterment is unfit for his noble calling. Of course, and so far, there are too many Negro preachers who are no more interested in the Negro "hand to mouth" position, than they are in Jesus Christ, who taught that "Man should love God and love his brother as he does himself." The fraternal leaders could incorporate into their esteemed organizations true brotherly love, not only when a brother is in trouble; but right along, helping every member to help himself. What is the use of your secret ritualistic works, if you do not use it as the ancients did? Every fraternal leader should make a minute study of the symbolical characters of his organization and learn the truth which once understood, shall reveal, one God, his powers, virtues and reflections; love thy brother and thou doeth love God. To be able to convince yourself that a brother is a brother, and that poverty can be abolished forever, you would not be doing your duty, only as a real Christian, but a god among man as well. You have made up your mind to help bring happiness into the lives of your people. You know that poverty robs you of your self respect, and you are determined to be the man or woman you have hoped, longed and prayed to be. You cannot afford to wait. You know that the time is now. You are going to begin right now to do all in your power to rid your race of this curse—poverty. You see other way of escape. You know that your color is not the real line; that your economic standing is. You have nothing against your white brothers, however, you have come to a sincere understanding with yourself, and have decided that God is the father of all, and it is impossible for the Creator to help a race which does not care to help itself. You know that God is on your side. Therefore, nothing in existence shall stop you from stamping out poverty, once and for all. It is possible. You can and will do your part, not tomorrow, but now. (Look out for another fine article next week. If you would like to have me write on any particular subject, please write your editor, R. R. P.). cinnati, and then in turn refuse to look out for their welfare. Such a condition reflects unfavorably on the intelligent group of our race in Cincinnati. Take, for instance, Cleveland; there they have three Negro Coincidental; likewise Philadelphia and New York. Chicago was fortunate enough to elect a Negro Congressman. With all of our intelligence in Cincinnati, we cannot even elect a Garbage Inspector. He may to be appointed, and now we invent one. Now, Negroes can't you see your prejudgment and condition? Let us cease petitioning white man. Let us show our power by our vote; let us vote together. The Charter Group announced their nine candidates, the Republican party is going to announce its nine, therefore, let Negroes announce their candidates. For example: below the Mason and Dixon Line, the Democrats are in the majority; but for the sake of white supremacy during the last national election Democrats of the South voted the Republican Ticket. So, let us come together in a Conference and select nine Negroes to run for the City Council; and support them. Let us boycott all parties who nominate themselves. Let us be aware of office-creators and political influence. The white man only respects power. The only power that the Negro of the United States of America has is his vote. The intelligentsia of the race are not together enough to control anything of note. Why does England, or any other nation respect America, or the United States? It is, because the United States has a standing army, a navy, submarines and dreadnaughts. Negroes, nobody is going to respect you until you show your intelligence, ability, and political strength; until you do something on your own initiative. Nobody respects a petition unless there is something behind it. We have had Mass Meetings and we have petitioned about policemen killing Negroes, without any feasible reasons, about Negro hospitals, -Negro Health Week, and the Community Chest Drive and all of it doesn't amount to a continental. But, when 25,000 voters of the Negro race in Cincinnati GET TOGETHER, I'LL bet you HELL WILL MOVE. WILLIAM WARE. President of the Cincinnati Div. No. 146 Universal Negro Improvement Association. ALLY GOOD Hartford, are the past few weeks, has been the recipient of extra good theatrical fodder. It is hard to choose which of the three leading houses, Ledwytte, Alhambra and Lincoln, carry the best program. Persuasion: I like the Alhambra Theatre. I do and miss a week, but I must admit there are weaknesses. Good pictures, but, when it comes to the acting, the different parties carry it a little too far, straining the credulity of the beholder. An unnecessary amount of shooting. Very startling; without any reason whatsoever. The chorus is slugish. They fail to satisfy. If the entire body would give the same earnest performance as the two girls on the South end, front—have been unable to find out their names—it would serve to tone up the show. As soon as the management has developed good talent, they lose them. Don't know why. Baby Banka is the cutest little trick I've seen in a decade. She is hot. The way Baby dances and wiggles is "obody's business." A lovable little "Atom." Three black-face comedians are two too many in any show. They don't do it down Broadway. Perhaps those boys come cheap. "Asher," "Pligmeat" and Jenkins are stars in their own right. It is only a matter of time before they, too, are lured away. IDA ANDERSON, TRAGEDIENNE DE LUNE Ida Anderson is one of the most gifted players these eyes have gazed on in years. In her portrayal of Madame X she undecided herself to the hearts of her audience for all time. The Lincoln Theatre is noted for its ribaldry. During the drama, the house was as quiet as the graver, seeming to fully appreciate the great work of the players. Tears come hard to my, but I'm not shamed to say it; my orbs were moist on more than one occasion during the play. Miss Anderson is to be complimented. Great work. The picture—good. Cherus—not no forty. Comedy—nil. LOCAL CRICKET Edmund Holder, the great, has gone, Ben Clarke, the huminary, in missing; Brunnie Dash has deserted; Will Gibbs is on the other side. Yet, with all—West Indian C. C. carpies on; in a meritorious way. One man does not make a team. When a good one goes another takes his place. It seems to be the general impression that now Edmund Holder, a starling player—one I consider the best in the country—is in Canada. The champion West Indian C.C. is about to disintegrate. What folly? A club with the courage, the do or die spirit, the tradition, of this formidable aggregation, will never be humbled in the dust as long as cricket continues to enjoy its unique place in the heart or the unseen interior. No other club in the country has such a back ground. There is only one West Indian C. C. Monigrels may spring up overnight, through the length and breadth of the land, personally calling themselves W. J. C. C. But it takes more than a name to make a great cricket club. There is a spirit of harmony in the original, the best and only W. I. C. C. both among the veterans and the colts alike that is inspiring to the ninth degree. When a player performs for the above club, his body and soul is wrapped up in the game. It is of such stuff that W. I. win games. Holder is a good man, a darn good man, but, the club won a winning aggregation before the ARRIVED IN 1915 COUNTRY. It will continue to win now he leaves. On next Sunday, June 16th, the Lewin brothers, Darold and Fonnie, the "Kedd" himself, in the silks of W. J. C.

What she asked for—she received. Word was brought to my friend that she was indebted to Madame. A trifling sum. My friend called up Madame on the phone. An explanation was requested. This was the answer, "Look-a-heah gal," dis in mah shop. I can charge yuh any price I want to. The entire family of my friend patronized this stupid woman. They have ceased to do so. But, what do Madame—care. She's getting a new car. Another report: Her Beauty Parlour is on 145th St. Another member of the family was waiting her turn. The patron stepped out of the chair.

On "Assembling his legion, His grandfather was white, a Danish consul in Antigua, a tall spare strong man with coloring that characterized the Danish people. St. Maurice of Agaunaum, the Negro Martyr Was Leading General Under the Roman Emperor Diocletian, and his Heroic Example Thrilled all Christendom. One of the Foremost Saints of the Catholic Church S was concerned he did not intend to go a step further. With a cheer, the soldier halted his decision. Diobeyey Orders St. Maurice in touching language reminded them of the awful fate that awaited one and all, but they did not fined. On this he sent a message to the emperor, informing him, of his decision. The message reached Maximian at Octetorum, where he was resting after the arrival of a long campaign. Towing in anger, he assembled an army and marched to Agaumuam, where the African legion was easily weaving. Arriving there the emperor ordered St. Maurice and his men to sacrifice to the pigeon gods at once. They returned to a man. Addressing the emperor St. Maurice said: "Sire, we are soldiers but at the same time we are servitors of Christ, a fact that we proudly confess. To you we we owe military service to Him, the honour of a pure and innocent life. From you we receive our pay; from Him, we hold the benefit of Life. That is why, sire, we cannot, okey you without denying God the Creator of all things, our Master as well as yours, whether you acknowledge it or not. Do not reduce us to the sad sight of offending Him and you'll find we always ready to follow your orders. Otherwise know that we will sooner obey Him than you. "We offer you our arms against any other enemy you wish to strike, but we hold it a crime to shed the blood of fehow Christians." Decimation On hearing this, the emperor, furious with rage, ordered the usual punishment; decimation; that is, every tenth man should be killed. St. Maurice's men were now ordered to number from the right, and every tenth man was made to step forward. Once more the emperor called on these men, six hundred in number, to obey him, promising them honor and preferment, but they firmly declared that their duty to Christ came first. On this he gave the order for massacre and his soldiers, falling on them, out them down. Confident that the others had been taught a lesson, the prisoner again gave the order, for stabbing, but the survivors stood more resolute than ever, bidding another be courageous in the name of Christ. It was an age when men and women for more than two centuries had been willingly surrendering themselves. How many of the hundreds of thousands of Negro Catholics, know that one of the foremost saints of their Church is a Negro? Picture in Noted Museum On the walks of the Old Pinakotah, Munich, one of the most noted of Europe's museums, hangs a famous picture—famous not only because it is the work of Matthias Grunwald, but also because of its subject. The principal figure of this picture is that of a very black man with hair that in a hair-straightening age will be described as "very bad"; with lips that writers of the Thomas Dixon kind delight in calling "mumberlips." His nose is flat, and his cheekbones high, in short. The most that can be said of him is that measured by Caucasian standards he, is ugly. He is just such a type as Caucasian. Negroes would shrink from webbing to be—but this is the extraordinary thing about that figure. It is clad in paved armor, a jewelled sword changes by its side; around the neck is a gold studded with gems; on its head is a wreath of the most cunning workmanship in gold and gems, illuminated by a halo, while on its face is a look of loftiest majesty. This picture once decorated the front of the altar of the great Cathedral of Halle, Germany. Why was it placed in that important position? Because that Negro, in all his blackness, was one of the foremost of the Christian martyrs, he is the celestial point of that part of Germany, as well as parts of France, Switzerland, and Italy. He is the renowned St. Maurice. St. Maurice of Agnationum was one of the generals of the Roman Empire, which was then under the joint rulership of the Emperor Diocletian and Maximian Heraclius. Of his accomplishments, very little is known of his life. His old name is clouded with doubt. His sainthood lives, however. Because of his blackness he was known as Mauritius. Maurice in French, Morish in English. Even as late as Shakespeare's day black people were called Moors "Othello the Moor." The term, Negro did not come into use until 1422 when the first Negro shaves were brought to Portugal and the Portuguese word "Negro" was used to describe their color. Called by Eyngerer But the little that is known of St. Maurice rings through the ages. Mauritius (St. Maurice), who was commanding his legion in the Roman province of Mauritania, later, Morocco, was ciled to Rome by his emperor at a critical time; The Christian slaves in Gaul were in revolt. For in spite of the lash, the claws of wild bears; the torture by red hot frost; the goring of wild bulls; the wounds of gladiators; the ripping armor by wild horses and frogs; the Christians had been growing in power. From their hiding places in the mountains, they threatened, until they threatened the throne of the Caesars itself, like a tiny seed which, lodging in the crevice of a rock, grows until it splits, the rock amunder. Maximian and Dioctian had been forced to make peace with the tribes on the outskirts of their vast ample and to call in as many of their soldiers as possible to deal with the Christians at home. Among those called to Rome was Maurice, as has been said, and the emperor sent him off to Gaul to dead with the revolt. When he got or saw as Agamemm, a wild and des- serted region in the Alpa, however, he learned something that almost unwielded him. The emperor he was going to at- tend were Christians like himself. So that came his duty was clear, and he did not hesitate. Assembling them he told the red truth, and made it clear that he far so he He was born in Antigua; the West Indies, on the 12th of November, 1875. gaunaum, the Roman Emperor D one of the Foremost he told them the rad truth and not intend to go um, the Negro Emperor Diocletian, and his foremost Saints of the Catho- rad, truth and then made it clear that so far as not intend to go a step further. Again, every tenth man was made to step forward, and again each fell under the sword of the emperor's men. Surrifices Life For a third time the emperor ordered the survivors to obey, and for the third time they refused, inspired by their beloved commander. "We have seen our companions fall under the sword," replied St. Maurice, "we have been spattered with their blood. We do not grieve for them, hawkery, but carry them the privilege of dying for the One who died on the cross for us. Do what you will. No terror or torture is capable of frightening us. We are ready to die. We holdly confess that we are Christians, and that we cannot attack fellow-Christians." Finding them inflexible the emperor ordered annihilation of the remainder, nearly all of whom threw down their arms content to suffer martyrdom. A handful of them escaped and fled into Germany and Italy. Remaining among the dead was the heroic St. Miliceur. This incident, occurring in an age when the spirit of Christ, not the spirit of color, dominated the Church, gave great impetus to the Christian cause. Church Recomes Firm Africa, this incident, demonstrated to Europe, knew how to die on masse for Christ. It showed that the Church in Africa was as firm as it was in Rome. One people at once had been hearing of Africa marry; how courageously they had been giving up their lives in the arenas of their native land. Now they had had an exhibition of it at their own doors. The fact is that ever since the unuch of the Candace, or Queen of Ethiopia, had been converted by the Apostle Philip, as sold in the Acts of the Apostles. Africa had taken enthusiastically to Christianity, and even before that it was a man born in Africa, Simon of Cyrene, who had helped Christ with his cross. African Leagues Further, it is a significant fact that most to St. Paul the great standard bearer of Christianity like St. Augustine, St. Cyprian, Tortuus, Origen, and Clement of Alexandria, were all born in Africa. The fund four were born in the heart of Negan North Africa* and are often spoken of as being black men. Action Leaders represented as black, and even in Palestine. It was from this latter place that St. Louis, King of France, brought the Black Virgin, where tradition later spread to several parts of France, where she is still adored as in Velay, Auvergne and Forcez, as well as parts of Spain. The patron of the sailors of Havre is the Black Virgin. A Negro Pope One of the most noted of the early Popes was also a Negro, named Molochides. His tribute was printed out to this writer on his visit to the Catacombs of St. Caliastin in Rome. In short, there were no white and colored churches but all were as one as in the Mohammadin religion today. St. Maurice and his men in laying down their lives had done so, not as Negroes, but actually as one with the Jews, with Europe. His identical brothers in Europe. Besides, Rome at that time was one grand conglomerate of all the races of Europe, Western, Asian, and North Africa, these peoples all having been brought there by the conquering legions of the Caesars. Martyrdom Recorded The martyrdom of St. Maurice and his, from occurred in 257 A.D. causing us was said a great stir and revival of the Christian cause. But in the rush of stirring events that followed, interest in the story grew fainter and fainter until it was received a century later by St. Eucherius. Bishop of Lyons, who gathered the threads of the story, for the most part oral, and wrote a book. At this period Christianity was widespread, and once again the splendid example of St. Maurice, as told by St. Eucherius, electrified the Christian world. In the wild and desolate region in which he fell a church was built, and many of the faithful moved thither. Monument to Him Later Sigmund, King of Burgundy, in gratitude to the inspiration he had received from St. Maurice, founded an abby there. Still later this abby was restored and enlarged by the Emperor, Charlemagne, becoming one of the most noted and oldest in Chartimont. During the Middle Ages invasions of Mongol it was destroyed by the Moors, but it was restored by St. Louis, burg and patron of France in 1361 A. D. where it now stands in the thirteenth little town of St. Martinus-en-Vall. The writer visited it in the summer of 1366.

The abbey has still one of the richest and best preserved treasures in all Western civilization, among which are priests and exquisite masterpieces of the jeweler's art—the gifts of many lings, the more than hundred years since St. Maurice stood firm. Then came the Reformation with the attack on the saints of the Catholic Church. A bitter controversy waged, chiefly in Germany, whether St. Maurice had ever existed. 237, today, his fame stands secure, as secure as that of Christ, Honor, and Shakespeare, around all of whom terrify wordy battles have been waged. Courage. Not Miracles For one notable fact stands out about St. Maurice: Unlikely many of the other saints, no supernatural event is connected with him. It was purely and simply an example of stealthfastness and courage in the face of duty such as could be seen in England in the reign of Queen Mary, more than a thousand years after the death of St. Maurice. At that time Christians were again burnt and tortured as in the days of Rome, this time not by Pagans, but by fellow Christians. Allard, leading authority on the subject of, Christian martyrdom, says: "The martyrdom of the legion, attached as if it is by constant and reliable evidence cannot be called into question by any honest mind." September 22, the day on which St. Maurice fell, is one of the fetes of the Catholic Church. He is the celestial saint of millions of white people in Europe, and the patron saint of millions of others all over the world. He is the saint of dyers, clothmakers, soldiers, and swordsmiths, while suffers from gout pleased for his intercession on their behalf. The Sandian Order of St. Maurice, one of the most venerated Italian decorations was founded in his honor. ```markdown ``` Our confabulation has brought us today to the subject of new growth. This is interpreted to mean any abnormal swelling which is found in any part of the body. In medical parlance it is designated as a tumor. In the olden days this disease was much dreaded as the possessor usually succumbed to an early grave. In this twentieth century when knowledge is on the increase the practitioner can invariably assure the patient of a more hopeful prospect as far as length of life is concerned. There are multiple causes onculated for the appearance of the intruder\ on the body economy. It has been considered by nearly all pathologists that irritation and injury have played a very important role in its formation. Who among the older generation does not remember a pemicioloid clay pipe? That was a pemicioloid clay pipe. Many adults an untimely death-by developing a tumor of the lip through worshipping too ardently at the shrine of Lady Nicotine. The warm clay irritated and scorched the tissue thus created a favorable field for the new growth to develop. It is related that in certain parts of India the natives wear under their robes an earthenware pot suspended from the waist, and containing smuddering charcoal, the heat emanating from this leads to a chronic eczema of the abdominal wall which in turn is generally followed by a tumor.

Many of these notions go back to a desire the mother doesn't know she has—to keep the child a baby as long as possible. Thin, the mother must overcome and re-engage the activity as it stings instinct which can be helped by the development of the youngster. So, let the mother keep the idea of "self-help" consistently in mind when thinking of her children. The baby of five months in about the right age to begin his career in independence.

Such precautions are very good indeed, ever though the acquisition of the disease in that manner is somewhat remote. There are houses which claimed a fair number of victims and from this standpoint the question of infection might claim attention, but in such conditions other factors have to be taken into consideration. There is no special age limit for a tumor to arise. An innocent one may occur at any age; a malignant one is seen at any age. At most sexes women are more liable to a contain kind of tumor and the disease usually attacks the uterus and the breast. The parts of the body that are affected in the male are the mouth and other portions of the alimentary canal. We have mentioned incidentally that there are two kinds of tumors viz.: the innocent or benign, and the malignant. The benign tumors do not threaten life to any great extent, unless they happen to be developing on some part where the vital functions are impaired. In the case of malignant ones death follows rapidly unless they are checked by surgical interference. Once in a while an innocent tumor develops malignance. In such a case death is even more rapid than usual. Be cautious about that lump. It may or may not be accompanied by pain.

A "yard" for this purpose is excellent and not very expensive. Right here, I can imagine the cry most mothers raise about bowed legs. I wish the doubting ones could have been in the school yard the other day and have heard an up-to-date mother telling some older women the latest views on bowed legs, as she had read it in last Sunday's paper. Think, she conspired them that hands of sunshine and such good foods as oranges and milk have more to do with bowed legs than all the standing babies can do.

Dice "El Sol": "Estas elecciones pueden tener importancia histórica para Inglaterra y para toda el continente europeo, habiendo llegado al punto de sazon los problemas políticos y económicos de Europa. La derrota del comunismo denota 'el fraasado de este en todos los países cultos de Europa, lo cual prueba que aquél será un fantasma unicamente en los países donde las libertades públicas no pueden debilitar y anular." En perspectiva de un futuro que angura grandes posibilidades. Nuestros hombres de visión preclara deben inspirar la raza nacía grandes realizaciones. La extincción trágica de una raza. Los que dirigen deben tener cualidades para ello. Medios para protejer nuestros intereses. Homos llegado al cruce en el camino del destino humano. Aquellos de nuestro elemento que se han desarrollado en el terreno científico, estan en el deber de dar un paso al frente dentro de los millones de la raza y convencerles sobre la seriead de la época en que vivimos. Hay dos caminos a seguir: el amplio camino del enaltecimiento o el estrecho sendero de la exterminación. "El Liberal" dice: "El trinfo del laborismo britanico redobla nuestro jubilo, pues vese que aplasta el conservador que goberno durante cinco años no solo en Englaterra, sino en los centros vitales de la Europa de la post-guerra." "El Debate" dice que el trinfo no es absoluto para el laborismo, el que no tendra mayoría total, que dando los liberares convertidos en arbitros. Si no so la forma una concentración entre los liberares y conservadores se aproxinan para Englaterra días de inquietud y de inestabilidad, entrando la política ingresa en un periodo de vacilación y de incertidumbre." En la observación de los acontecimientos notamos en este gran mundo la operación de grandes cambios realizados desde su creación. Cuando dios dio por terminada su gran obra maestra, delegó su autoridad en dos seres a quienes, creó a su propia imagen y semejanza. Desde aquella época el género lmano se ha multiplicado considerablemente. Donde teniamos solamente dos seres ejerciendo plena autoridad, tenemos hoy dia millones de millones reclamando la misma autoridad y posesión de ese mismo mundo. Dice el mismo periodico más ada- denle: "Tememos que la llegada del laborismo al poder no haga más que accentuar la decadenia de Inglaterra en todos los ordenes, en el que esta incluido el orden económico, Desde luego el prestigio de la monarquía británica, en el mundo no puede ser el mismo estando al frente del gobierno un laborista que un conservador cón liberal. Los años venideros-pueden confirmar la experiencia pasada. Cuando los primitivos colonos de America desearon posesionarse de ella, hallaron gran oposición de patte de una raza oborigen y debil. Qué resolvieron entonces? La capturaron, cometieron asesinatos en gran número y así pudieron realizar fácilmente su aspiración. Este hecho histórico es un ejemplo que puede también acontecer a los pueblos débiles del universo dentro de uno, dos o tres siglos, cuando las razas o pueblos fuertes tengan que desarrollarse hacia la posición de completo predominio. Estos no permitrán que una raza debil se interponga a su paso, pues ello intervendrá en su felicidad. "Estas elecciones tendrán sin duda influencia en el mundo entero. Hay mucha diferencia, cierto es, entre la ideología laborista y el socialismo continental y no socialismo nada del socialismo espanol pero es indulable que la victoria laborista sera aprovechada por el socialismo de todos los países y normalmente lo robustecera. Entre posotros, se ha visto. La prensa, a impulses del socialismo aburguesado e inconsciente, le hace juego a los socialistas. Todo esto preocupa sobremanera al negro conciente por constituir una amenaza para coh su propia existencia. Por esa causa la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra labora tenazmente con el objeto de constituir una raza fuerte, una raza con una nación y un gobierno propios, resperada y considerada por todos. "Digamos que ello no nos preocupa demasiado. Esos términos medios de liberares a democratas más o menos socializables son un estorbo político que más perjudica que otra cosa al instrumento político que para España descansos." Los que abren canino en esta nueva propaganda de nuestra organización ilustrando a la masas de nuestro pueblo, se ven a veces mortificados por la acción infundada de ciertos elementos quienes, contiene o incontenientemente, se esfuerzan por exprimir la flatina que lealtad y amor para con la raza. Lisos apostoles tienen que revestirse con el habito de la tolerancia, para que cuando los malinformados se interpongan a aquello que se crea una causa justa, pueda ignorarseles aunique en su oposición empleen la mayor cantidad de insultos a la inteligencia y a la dignidad. CORRESPONDENCIA Sr. Editor del Negro World: La División No. 55 de Sagamore La Grande fue inaugurada el 18 de mayo proximo, pasado, a cuya celebración asistió una gran concurencia. Alli se vió manifestado el sentimiento hacia la unificación y armonía entre nuestras huestes, con el alto proposito de una raza enamipada y una patria redinidima. Cada uno de estos balanzes de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, radicados actualmente en los cuatro puntos del globo, aportará su grano de arenera en la construcción del magnio edificio de enalecimiento para nuestro pueblo. Anhelamos hoy unión y armonia entre-nuestro elemento mas que nunca. Solamente por este medio los cuatrocientos millones de la raza podrán cruzar los mares de oposición y oceanos de dificultades, conduciendo su barca de aspiracciones al puerto de salyación. Cuando, observamos los grandes esfuerzos de la raza blanca por su supervivencia, y cuando mas adelante noramos la lucha en que la raza amarilla esta enpuñada con el mismo fin, realizamos la gravedad de la situación en lo que a nuestra propia raza respecta. Como es consiguiente, todo movimiento de progreso que tienda a beneficier una parte de la humanidad, hallará gran opisión exponiéndose a la crítica dimanada generalmente de parte de los refractarios; pero los que patrocinamos este movimiento de adelanto para con nuestra raza, los que estamos empatizados en esta lucha, estamos determinados a utilizar toda nuestra abilidad y todas nuestras energías en pro de su éxito. La actual dirección de nuestro pueblo debe estar capacitada para cocodocarle en la posición que merece en el concierto de los demás pueblos. Debe luchar tenazmente por su emancipación y por la fundación de un gobierno que le proteja y defienda sus intereses. Ello puede llevarse a cabo por medio del esfuerzo propio, utilizando energía propia. Ningún pueblo debil sobrevivirá en el mañana porque esos dias contarán grandes sosobras y mayoras dificultades en la lucha por la existencia. LAZARO GARCIA. Sagua La Grande, Cuba, mayo 25 de 1929. El Consejo de la Soliedad de las Naciones Uno es incinta millones de gestió denominadas genericamente con e calificavito de milianas europeas, tienen depositats hoy sus esperanzas. El Consejo de la Soliedad de las Naciones emitezara la discusión del gran problema que offrecen los medios y modos de asegurar a las minorias que siempre que tengan algún motivo de queja, dondequiera que se encuentren, si la nacion donde, yiven no les concede la necesaria libertad racial, religiosa y educativa, que sus demandas recibiran pronta atención a manos de la Sociedad de las Naciones. Un comité especial del*Consejio que ha estudiado exensurantes la reformas propuestas por Alemania y el Canada en la ultima sesión que se celebren en Ginebra he ha visto en la imposibilidad de aprobar la mayoría de ellas. Consejuntemente, se espera que el doctor Gustavo Stresmania ministro de Relaciones Exteriores aleman, defienda con valor estas suggestions, en la esperanza de que el consejio de la Liga modificara radicalmente los acuerdos tomados por el comité. La creencia general es que el comité se encontrará lista para acceptar magnificaciones, pero que luchar porque se adopten las importantes de las conclusiones, ya acordadas. La Guerra de las Naciones que dividio a Europa de acuerdo con nuevas divisions Fronterizas y especialmente, desmembró el imperio austeo-hungaro, en un número considerable de nacionalidades, creó condiciones políticas, anuales donde millones de gente se encuentran actualmente viviendo bajo una bandera que no es de suyai. Las quejas de las minorías han venido en el pasado siendo sometidas por la Sociedad de las Naciones a un comité de tres miembros del Consejo, compuesto de representantes de naciones que no tienen interés alguno en el problema que se discute. Este comité estudia la cuestión y presenta finalmente un informe sobre la misma, después de haberla investigado detenidamente. La constante enigración de los campesinos a la ciudadela a la raje que congestiona los grandes cintalados, sumen una dejada completene vacios los territorios rurales y agrícolas. Daeve años se calculo que habia unos 32 millones de individuos residentes de los regiones campesinas. En cambio, en encudo de 1029 la cintalaba disminuido a ventisima y medio millones. De 1928 a 1929, el desenco de población rural fue de cerdar de 200,000 personas. En ese periodo 1,060,000 personas-dejaron los ranches para ir a radiarse en las cintades. En cambio, 1,362,000 emigrar a las compias. Tambien, el número de nacimientos entre la gente rural excedió con mucho, durante ese año, al de definiciones. El movimiento hacia las cintades fue algo anterior que en otros anterior; pero también el movimiento hacia la campaña disminuó considerablemente. En las regiones rurales hubo una proporción de ventisima nacimientos por cada mil habitantes. Y la proporción de definiciones fue de-ocho por mil. Mas Encarección El Trúbual Supremo aprobó la sentencia de seis meses de círcel impuesta a Harry F. Sinclair, multimillionario petitolo, por intento de soborno al jurado que oítha causa que se seguí contra el. El acusador oficial declaró que esta nueva sentencia tendría principio tan pronto como Sinclair cumpla con la actual que se le impuso tres meses, v que esta sirviendo en la carácter de la capital por haber rehusado contestar a preguntas de un comité del senado. Sport Column KIR CHOCOLATE, CUBAN SENSATION, VICTORIOUS AGAIN Kid Chocolate, who left Harlem long enough Wednesday to chalk up another victory, returned all anglies. He paid the boys a visit over in Philadelphia, where he met Mildel Gregorrez of Spain, who was, according to the amount of ink that was aplashed about him, the hardest opponent the Kid had to face. Well, Chocolate gave him a boxing lesson with plenty of punishment to boot, if my memory serves me right. I think the daily sports writers tagged Fidel La Barba as the one who would drop the curtain for this Negro fighting machine from Cuba, which proved to be just another round of white folks' desire. If there is one Negro fighter that they want to see, it is the boy who is holding his own, not only as a race, man, but as a clean-cut sportsman. I say with deep regret that it is too bad the white sports writers are not as 'real sportspun' as they should be. They inject too much self into their articles which are circulated for public consumption. In the first place they are prejudiced toward all other participants in the athletic field except their white brothers. If they are to serve the public they should be above harboring this monster. A man is a man regardless of color, just as a horse is a horse. Off-times I have seen a black and white horse working side by side in perfect harmony, although they can look at each other and notice a difference of color. If civilization is responsible for this color complex, then my cry is jungle, jungle, where art thou, for I crave thee! Back to Chocolate. We understand that he has several good fights coming up. He is one of the busiest men in the ring today. Watch your step, my boy. Don't grab them too fast; for they are trying to catch you off guard. So, watch out! BRUCE FLOWERS seems to be going had these days. What's the matter, Bruce? Are you slipping? Get yourself together. Lay off for a white. A check up on yourself probably will help home. BABY JOE GANS outfought Pinky Kaufman in a slashing ten-rounder that created a lot of excitement. Gans seems to be going good. Keep it up, Joe. JACK McVEY had another set-to with George Courney. It seems that Courtney has the jump on McVey as he winds up in the lead every time they get together. I never will forget that night at Coney Island when Jack rushed Courtney to the ropes, and turned around slow, dragging away, and George slipped up and sent over a right on McVey's jaw that sent him down for a nine count. McVey never did interest me to a great extent, I don't know. He seems too shaggy. He goes about his work too, don't catch. Makes a "allow think he is just in there for the money." Too bad, Jack. Have you been as high as you can go? Back up. Snap out of it and get going again while there is still a ray of hope. THE BOYS in the know-it-all are slipping us another hot one. They say Jack Demprey intently lightens our own George Godfrey, but when and where is a deep secret. Let's hope if it does materialize, that New York will be the place, and "very soon" the time. Of all the heavy-weight, Godfrey is the one who should be given a break. He deserves it. Born right in the U. S. A. and all that goes with it, Yes, he now service and established a wonderful record. My, my, my, who have those of African descent to do for "Uncle" to say you should receive your just reward? BLACK BILL is booked to flight Corporal Izzy Schwartz for the flyweight championship some time next month. I am glad to learn that Bill is getting this chance. He deserves it. He has fought Schwartz twice before, winning one and losing one, which makes it even. Now for the rub. Hope Bill is training hard for this context, as oftimes when our boys get the opportunity they usually flop. Don't fail to be on time. There will be a rush for seats. So get in early. A MONSTER MASS MEETING of the U. N. I. A. to be held under the auspices of THE GARVEY CLUB. Hon. J. E. Croom, of Philadelphia Division, will be the principal speaker for the occasion. There will also be many other prominent and interesting speakers, including Mme. M. L. T. DeMena, Assistant International Organizer, Mrs. E. Capers, President the Garvey Club, and others. There will also be shown the true historical pictures of Ethiopia, and the material accomplishments of the work of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, on the screen, by Hon. J. A. Boltram—Admission 25 cents.

He has met and defeated some of the best in the land. Too much cannot be said of him. The race should honor him with some token of appreciation. Ours seem to be the slowest to single out any distinguished player in the group and pay him homage. We must wake-up as these good turns tend to create a deal of interest among our younger group. AL BROWN is preparing himself for his championship fight with Gregorio, which takes place at the Queensboro Stadium, June 18th. Al is one of the most feared fighters of today as no one in his division wants to mix with him. He was crowned bantamwangle champion by the National Boxing Commission last year when he met and defeated one other contender at Madison Square Garden, there being no other one willing to meet him. He went back to France, where he had four or five good bouts. He recently returned in order to witness the Chocolate-La Barba fight and when introduced from the ring was given a wonderful welcome home. Fugazy, Cole and McMann-My What A Combination We are in for some good bouts this summer over at Ebbet's, Field in Brooklyn. We are informed that Jess McMann has linked up with Humbert Fugazy and Ed Cole. This is a real hot combination. Negro fighters and fans are aware of the kinds of breaks they received from Mr. Fugazy last summer. He has always played square. Now that McMann is with him, we know what to expect. My advice to the Negro fighters is to get in training and knuckle down to business so that they may be taken seriously as there will be good opportunities opened to them this summer. What the crowd likes and wants more of are real good mixed bouts because they create a lot more interest. The straight cards, whether white or black lack attraction. The sooner promoters learn this, the better. We have no doubt as to the attitude of Fugacy or McMunn toward this argument as they both have packed in more crowds with a mixed-card than with straight ones. The Negro World is willing to do all within its power to help this aggregation. All we ask is to give the Negro fighter a break. If you will do this, we are hold enough to say that the Negro tans will not turn you down as we do not mind commuting to Brooklyn, when it is worth the white. So here's wishing you the heat of hack.

SUBSCRIBE Negro Press Must Point The Way to Freedom I hope to see the time when Negro newspapers all over this country will be working in harmony with each other for the one purpose of educating their subscribers. When editors and owners have done prescribing politics of one kind or another, and teach their readers that the acquisition of wealth will guarantee the necessary representation all over the world. That only through the combining of strength in every way can extinction be averted. That trust in the white man placed the Negro in the condition which he is today, and that trust will ever keep him there or worse. The press can do all of this and more, and it is the solemn duty of each and every paper published by and for Negroes. News is necessary to any group of people, but news of any and educational value is nothing more than a novel, and my people needs things of greater value. The time has come when it is no more necessary to tell the degrees of the country what Congress did not do for them, they know these things too darn well already. It is rather cheering to tell our people that we are improving our condition every day, and that the outlook is very bright, but we cannot meet economic competition on that alone. I am hoping for this change in the press, not under the present regime, but taking into consideration that the ever-widening way to a more diverse and different regime. All things considered I believe that a large percentage of the present rulers of the press are working according to their best beliefs, therefore, like the wife of one of the world's great men, they are above criticism. Our editors teach their readers, to do unto others as you would have others do unto you, that may have worked fine in the glorious days of the old testament, but it is worse than useless today. Now it should be taught to our people to get ahead by all means, no matter what weapons are used; the idea is to get ahead: this is a lesson that all races are letter perfect, in except Negroes. The lesson of paramount importance to our people, is the fact that you can not live on earth with your head in the sky; we are of the earth earth, therefore try to own some of it. I realize that there will always be politicians in our race, but an has been shown, they are of no material benefit, and valuable time cannot be spared them; for every thinking Negro knows that living in a majority governed country, the answer is obvious. Looking to the new generation coming into prominence I can see at a prone too distant day, a new Negro Press. Editor, Negro World, New York, N. Y. From Benj. W. Franklin, P. O. Box No. 43731, San Quentin, California. Thanking Dr. Porter To the Editor of the Negro World, Dear Sir: I note with much interest the article published, of the Negro World of April 27th, written by Rt. Rev. Dr. R. Porter, entitled "What Religion" for the occasion is one of vital importance especially to Negroes, we are glad for the light that is thrown on it by Dr. Porter. In his opinion one "does not have to become a member of a church to be religious." Here is inspiration for those who believe that standing in some definite synagogue and making vein repetitions is religion. "More religious souls are to be found outside the church today than ever before." This may be due to the failures of the churches—through deception—to impart to their members the essentials of religion; but religion being an inherent principle, abides in the soul of men, thus leaving the church; as it were, buried in its deception. Negroes are dubbed "religious fanatics," but Dr. Porter believes that "Negroes are too denominationalized rather than too religious." "If Negroes were as religious as the white man would have us believe it, would be impossible for one to find Negroes or deformation or sect under the sun." Religion as defined by the writer, "is an invisible bond or obligation between God and Man, and man and his brother. ... Why, then, should we ju. let or range of the derivatives of the white song to the white breaths of Christmas, but he is extremely rechristening, but he is extremely religious; he heads, he is multilinguistic to a great extent, in giving any redirection to the needs of the blacks. The white man sees himself in the image of a white God. He is aware of his obligations to his God and to his (white) brethren, thus his unmistakable devotion to them. It would be quite ridiculous by Negroes, yet, the Negro makes it his sacred duty to be affiliated with every denomination, even when the gods of these denominations do not appreciate his company there. The Negro fails to realize that he too is created in the image of God; logically a black God; (though we do not desire) apply the paint brush to the Infinite Being) and that there is a Bond or obligation between him and his God, and between Him and his Brethren. Negroes who realize this Bond or obligation; but they are swallowed up by the vast number to the contrary: "God has no time for those who do not believe in Him or would not go out and fight," for the Bible tells us that "God is a God of war." Negroes should fight unflinching for a place under the sun; and for those rights which are inalienably theirs. Here is inspiration as well as hope for those who desire to see a change in the conditions involved in this par-amount question. "Some day there shall be a powerful Negro church," that shall be composed of men who know "religion" in the true sense of the word. They shall use their de-monition to show the world that Negroes have united, expressing one thought and belief and using their church as a medium through which they may know each other, and hold together, when calling upon their Lord and Maker, to grant their demands. "We would ask all those who desire to see this, not theoretically, but to turn, by eyes of both infirm and Convented men, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, to be held at Kingston, Jamaica, from August 1st to 31st of the present year. One of the items in that elaborate program to be discussed is "The formulating of plans to unify the religious beliefs and practices of the entire Negro race." We thank you, Dr. Porter, for your interesting topic. GEORGE H. S. READ, Remedios, Cuba. To the Editor of the Negro World. Dear Sir: Please permit me a small space in this your most-noble weekly to extend my sincere appreciation to the Hon. Marcus Garvey for his latest move by way of the census, which will bring about a speedy accomplishment of the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The contents of the circular letter should have captivated the minds of every member of this race who got one. But I am perfectly ashamed to say that some of the people, after reading the letter throw them in the fire, and used ugly and uncalled for remarks. I pity the case of such people. I feel certain they are going to regretted the time they ever attempt such an insult. When they shall have seen the good results which this grand and noble cause shall bring about, many of them are going to say, "If I had known at that time." It will then be too late for such. If I had the power, I would frame laws in this organization to boycott even to the third and fourth generation of such feeble-minded Negroes who offer such an insult to an important move like this. This is not the time for *Negroes* to allow themselves to be fooled by those who term themselves as the *Superior*. It matters not under what *thug* we live, each and every one of us, as *Negroes*, is facing the same economic situation. Therefore we should, with one United effort determine to pull together *hand-in-hand*, with our leader in this great cause. We are tired of being used as convenient for other people. We are tired of the continuous mistreatment meted out to us from time to time. We are also tired of the continual insults which we have to hear without being able to retaliate. Those of us who are willing to go forward in the fight for a government of our own, can never be weary in well doing. Come what may, for we have seen so other way out of the *foregoing ill conditions* than JACKSON RADIO LABORATORS We thank and thank distributors in India and abroad for their support.

Hats Off to the New Negro World Management To the Editor of the Negro World: Such a significant change has been brought about in the general appearance and style of our beloved journal since the appointment of Mr. R. T. Brown as acting managing editor that unstinted praise and congratulations are in order. Stronger, and more inspirational editors have been an outstanding feature; strikingly educational and informative articles are noticeably attractive in the magazine section; clean, neat type changes have been introduced; the foreign affairs sections, by Arden Bryan, and the weekly religious talks by Dr. Porter, are especially instructive and enlightening; then again the poetic creations of Editor Brown are deserving of particular mention and study. All in all, we trust that the success and duration of Brother Brown's supervision will be retained. Personally, the writer believes that the issue of May 26th is the finest and most wholesomely beneficial release of the Negro World-read in many days. Very sincerely yours, ARTHUR S. GRAY, Los Angeles, Cal. "BOMBOOLA" Irving, Cooper, announces that his new all-Nigerian-inspired comedy, "Bomboola," will open at the Royale Theatre, New York, on Monday, June 17th.

Congratulations To Dr. Porter Editor of the Negro World: Please allow me space in your indispensable weekly The Negro World to give congratulations to the Rt. Rev. Dr. R. R. Porter, for his "Weekly Religious Talks." My Dear Mr. Porter: In your first article on weekly religious talks, you talked those who may be interested could write to you through The Negro World, and so I have taken the opportunity. Your appearance as a true religious instructor is highly appreciated at least by me. The scriptures were presented to us, as a race, in a crud form, by the white race, and as by the ministers of our race who were taught to What the most needs is a listening selfish. I only wish that some more teachers of your type could quickly come to your aid for if this race needs nothing. It truly needs a sound religious understanding. Go on, brother. Tell it over again Yours, for racial uplift. ALARIC T. WELSH. Hafney Camaguey, Cuba. May 12, 29. P. S. Thanks very much for space Mr. Editor.

To the Editor of the Negro World, Dear Sir: Please give me space in your most valuable journal to express my opinion towards the Negro World and the Blackman. As we read The Blackman Printing and Publishing, Co., the thought struck me: 'why not have the Negro World Printing and Publishing Co.'? The Negro World as the mother of all periodicals that shall ever be printed by the U. N. I. A. should have its own plant. I feel sure that all divisions, chapters and branches of the U. N. I. A. in this part of the western hemisphere will facilitate the Blackman with the printing of their placards, envelopes, tickets, etc. etc. It can easily be done by O SAVE MONEY and CLOTHIERS, NEW YORK, N.
