The Negro World

Look Out For Next Week's Issue! Get Your Daily News! There will be another gripping, heart-growing article on Negro Determination to Free Slaves, and Redemption Modes. The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro Negro World Heaching the Heart of Negroes The Best Awakening Medium 'A Newspaper Devoted solely to the Interests of the Negro Race VOL. XXV.—No. 20. NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1929 Inspired with Confidence and Hope That Great African Common- wealth Will Rise Upon Which Posterity Can Look With Pride Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: As we journey through life there rises before us the vision of a new world in the accomplishment of a new people. American Progress To glance back to the depth from which America has climbed to a place second to none among the nations of the world is to feel inspired with confidence and hope that out of what is called our dream will rise in the future a great African commonwealth upon which future generations will look with as much pride and satisfaction as the white American citizen of today does of his country. White Man's Country I say white American citizen because the pride and honor are his, in that whatever contribution we as a race have made to the progress of America was exacted of us, not of our free will, but by enforced conditions over which we had no control. It is true that in single instances we have voluntarily added our part to America's glory, but our white fellow citizens do not regard such a contribution as a title to the rights that we now claim under the Constitution. They have beyond the shadow of a doubt made it plain that America is a white man's country—discovered, pioneered and developed by him for the benefit of his generations. In the face of this feeling we endeavor to press our claims, but, with a preponderance of competitive strength against us, we feel that the battle is lost, and that is why we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association advance the program of a country of our own. Genius and Perseverance As I see before me the wonders and marvels of this American civilization, erected through the genius and perseverance of the white man, so do I feel encouraged that one day we will likewise duplicate a civilization of our own in Africa. Every Negro Should Find A Place in U.N.I.A.—Our Program Is Large Enough— Embraces Every Phase of Human Activity—Room For Every One to Play His Past—Says President-General Our Objective Should Be Definitely Fixed in Our Minds Should Work Steadfastly And Unceas ingly For the Attainment of Our Desires Our Children Shall Inherit Our Glory and Thus Give to the Race a Perpetuation of Thai Honor Worthy of the Abiest Humans American Progress The pictures of New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Chicago, St. Louis, Los Angeles and San Francisco will inspire us to build like cities within the Commonwealth of Africa. In the pursuit of such an object we will find much to do, and that is why each and every Negro should find a place in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Our program is large enough and embraces every phase of human activity. There is room for every one to play his part, and that is why we make a common appeal to the four hundred million members of our race to gather under our standard. With a united purpose we can march forward, making our impress upon an observant world and carving a place for ourselves in the niche of human achievement. We who make up the Universal Negro Improvement Association are full of hope. We feel happy to live in this age of progress and change, for while men of other races are endeavoring to promote their interest through the changes that are necessary, we also are determined to make a change that will elevate us to the standard of progressive humanity. Resistance and Opinion It is not expected that we will achieve the things we desire without resistance and opposition. The good worth while has always been accomplished through the daring and dashing perseverance of those of a set purpose. The progress of other peoples brought about through their organized ingenuity stand out as encouragements to us in the struggle that we are making to reach the top. Our objective should become fixed in our minds, and we should steadily work on without ceasing or without becoming distracted. Hope for Renaissance The Universal Negro Improvement Association hopes for a renaissance among us as a people that will include us among the world's active nationalistic progenitors. Our children shall, we hope, inherit our glory, and thus give to the race a perpetuation of that honor that is worthy of the ablest of the human race. Will Not Give Up Those of us with vision will surely not give up, but press on, hoping that by our determination to achieve we will unerringly help the cause of Africa's redemption.

Amidst the Dixie Craze That Has Besieged Hollywood, Is Harry Gray, the Grand Old Man, Who Puts Philosophy and Soul Into His Acting—Here, He Tells About the Movies and the Future of His People At the threshold of closing the last chapter of his life, Harry Gray, 88, becomes a movie star and adds to his already long list of titles as lecturer, editor, orer, minister and author. Harry Gray, once a slave, now nearly 90 years old, makes his first appearance as a screen actor in the role of "Dad" in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's talking all Negro drama, "Halleu-jab." By RUBY BERKLEY GOODWIN One is distinctly surprised when a man of eighty-nine years develops in a radical who does not follow passed me to go among people who possessed more education than myself. I have been very observant all my life. When I secured employment I always watched the man above me. I learned to express myself exactly the way he expressed himself. I memorized many beautiful sayings of people with whom I entered into casual conversation. In that way, I accumulated a large vocabulary. By this time the vegetables were all mined and he poured out a salad dressing made of: 2 egg yolks, cottonseed oil, salt and pepper. His Philosophy of Life He set the table for two, and motioned me to a chair. As we ate our simple dinner of brown bread, cheese and salad, he gave me the rest of his story: "Praeching Hell Out of Souls" "When I was a young man I became a preacher. My first mission was to 'praech out souls' of hell; my second mission now is to 'praech out souls' of souls.' For companies fear has ruled the world. Man will never reach the state of perfection intended for him; he will be held love and not fear govern his every habit and deed in life. Too Much Hurry "There is one great fault I find with people today they hurry too much. They use up all of their reserve forces in every day affairs. I have always been interested in longevity. All animals live from five to ten times their age of maturity. The average man lives scarcely twice the age of maturity. I pandered over it, and this is the result of my thinking. "Man constantly hurries; no matter how inconsequential a task he has to perform, he blurs 'about' as though the fate of nouns hung upon his every action. Animals hurry only in case of an emergency. "Mur catta to suit his fancy, constantly inventing different food, with no thought of nutrient but of taste. I only have one diet. Our dinner, as you see, is very simple, very easily prepared and requires no cooking. For supper I shall probably eat the same thing or maybe I shall eat dried fruits and nut meats. My diet varies but I like them. One time of it I walk many miles each day. I don't smoke, dring or even chew gum, because I found out that those things do not preserve youth. Advices Youth "Our, youth must be taught to conserve their vital energy. The energy they burn up foolishly enjoying life as they call it, could serve them faithfully in the currying on of some worth while protect." "You believe in the young, people of today, don't you?"

At the threshold of closing the last chapter of his life, Harry Gray, 80, becomes a mule star and adds to his already long list of titles as lecturer, editor, orer, minister and author. Harry Gray, once a slave, now nearly 90 years old makes his first appearance as a screen actor in the role of "Dad" in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's talking all Negro drama, "Hallucinab." BY RUBY BERKLEY GOODWIN One is distinctly surprised when a man of eighty-nine years develops into a radical who does not follow the rules of society. One could argue that who has formed for himself a group of rules that he stoutly maintains will enable him to live at least one hundred and fifty years. Such is Harry Gray. So far, he has made a splendid start in his accomplishments. His face is not marred by a single wrinkle, his teeth are in a perfect state of preservation, his steps are as sprightly as those of men many years younger. His philosophy is as strange as are his habits of living. I arrived at the suite of rooms in the Somerville Hotel. "I am preparing my dinner," he informed me. "I never eat in a restaurant or cafe." I watched, fascinated as he scraped and sliced carrots, peeled and died tomatoes, shredded lettuce and cabbage. All the while telling me a story that I shall never forget. Born a Slave/ "I was born in burgundy on the Sutton Plantation in Bifurthee County in North Carolina, 'j was very devoted to my master and mistress, for they were very good to me. During the Civil War the Union Army came perilously near and I led my owners to Black Walnut Swamp in that region. Here I knew they would be safe. No one ventured into the swamp but a few of his who knew the trails for many and varied were the stories that were told of the boys of quicksilver and marshs of stagnant poison water. After freedom, I became overboard on that place and regained there for thirty years. Then I went north." How He Became Intellectual How He Become Intellectual I had wondered about his English, for he spoke as a scholar, with the wisdom of the old masters. He explained this to me by saying, "In the days of my ignorance and superstition when I first went to New York, I met an intellectual bum; each morning I would buy ten cents worth of lignor and he in turn would give me lessons in the fundamentals. From him I learned much of science, art, history, anthropology and kindred sciences. At first I decided to enter night school. I went one night and never went again, because it embar- 2. He possessed an extraordinary sense of humor, far beyond his years, and often shook the members of his family when he displayed in church, antics that offended the deacons and deaconesses. Too Much Hurry Advises Youth them is this one. Our boys' must learn to respect our women and to honor them and really believe they are the equal of any women on the face of the world. No race can rise above its standard of appreciation for its women." Opinion of Birth Control "I believe in large families, and I'm not concerned, as are most people, about our ever-increasing population. Nature has always taken care of such things... always will." Mr. Gray has lived a life of many phases. His occupations have been numerous and varied. He has been lecturer, editor, laborer, minister, and now, he has almost completed a book. Will it be 150 Years Old? You Live to He 130 Years Old He will have a small wall one hundred and fifty years old. one hundred and fifty years?" "Why, of course," he stoutly main- tained. "The human body is able to renew itself independently. We should live, not one hundred and fifty years, but just so long as we will to do so. A creation as perfect as ours never intended for me to live in a few short years and then—darkness." His conversation had interested me so that I had nearly forgotten the real mission of my business. I recalled it and asked him about his work in pictures. "Pictures? I like to work in them. Interesting? They are an education in themselves. I enjoyed every minute of the time I was before the camera. I could accurately portray accesions because I lived before and during the period of reconstruction. We need pictures that are historically so. Many of our group will not respond to reconstruction days drama, but we should glory in our present achievements, thinking kindly of the age when our age was steeped in ignorance and apprehension. "Some day soon the Negro will portray his modern life upon the silver screen. The sonorous voices of our people will be heard in the classic aristics of the old masters, as well as the classic folk-songs of our people. But we must be patient. Our chance will come. This drama, "Hallahhillah," has paved the way for better things for our race." Mr. Gray has, the part of "Dad" in the picture. Zeke, his oldest son, becomes a young minister. The father watches over him, hoping that only the best and highest ideals will ever lead him, and then—but we must not say too much. Harry Gray is a grand old man. I left him, feeling that I had been in the presence of a Plato, realizing that I had met a mentality far superior to my own, wondering whether I had properly interviewed him or not, but being thankful that I had the opportunity of meeting this grand old personage. President Congratulates Aged Minister The Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, aged 60, minister of the Abujaian Church and Community House Forum, New York City, has received the following message from President Hoover on the 20th anniversary of his pastorate: "I commendate the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell upon his long and constructive service and wish for him and his workworlds still further achievements in helping the congregation and other charges committed to their care." 3.

Money and Marriage Use Head as Well As Heart in Love Have you a puzzling love affair on which you need friendly advice? Write to Julia Jerome, cure of this newspaper. If you wish a personal reply please send a stamped, self- addressed envelope. Julia Jerome Our letter this week is from Texas. My dear Mr. Jerome: I have a terrible problem. I am eighteen and my sweetheart is twenty. We love each other madly and my people like George, but they in- sist that he have a bank account be- fore we marry. Now, that will mean at least two years before we can marry. And because father is so good to me I hate to disobey him but I don't see how I can wait two years. By that time George may not love me. Shall I obey my parents or my heart? My dear child, if George doesn't have two years from now some one else probably will. It will of course do no good for me to tell you that the world is full of men—having concentrated upon one man you won't believe me. And I mean no reflection upon George when I say that there will be others just as good if he doesn't stick. It is a fine thing to love one man wholly, but never let it blind you to the facts of life. Now, one of the worst facts of life is that money is necessary. Lack of money does not always ruin a marriage—there wouldn't be many people left married if it old—but enough money makes the running smoother. I often think that the ancient custom of the dowry—which Europe still adheres to—was very wise. For if the wife always brought, something when she came to her husband it would insure greater permanence to the union. It was just another way of giving the couple something to start on. This is particularly necessary in old countries where opportunity to make money is limited and lucky breaks are few. We sneer at the dowry in America because—until recently—almost any young man with energy could get ahead and hope for great wealth. Now, however, America is getting "sewed up" too. Free land is almost gone. And with easy money receding our ideas of marriage will modify considerably. When your parents insist on your sweetheart having a bank account they are trying to insure some permanence to your marriage—so abide by their judgment. Why Colored People Are Colored No one knows positively why colored people are colored. But, scientist suggests several possible reasons. Because the hot tropical sun under which most colored people originally lived made them so. That's one suggestion. Negroes all lived on the blazing shores of tropical seas or in the deserts of northern Africa before ships and steam trains made it possible for them to travel, say the people who believe in this theory. 4. His taste for books and academic study rapidly developed, and while here he often studied late at night in the hope that his would be admitted to Leicand-Stanford University. But he was never financially able to realize his dream. theory is that all human beings were originally dark, and only certain races are beginning to grow more pale. People who hold this theory would have us believe that the whiter the race, the more advanced it is; but this is wholly unprovable. Still other students say that it is a matter of food; and they point to related tribes living on the same islands who are of different color. But this theory too is very unlikely. The fact is that some light-skinned people are found in Africa, and some dark-skinned people in the polar regions. They may have travelled to their present homes from distant parts of the world centuries ago before history was written; but travel was so difficult and dangerous that it is doubtful. And the truth of the matter is that the secret of WHY the skin of one man has a different color than the skin of another human being, is one of the many still unsolved mysteries of the world. If we knew the reason it might make the world a safer place to live in, for it would probably rid the earth of many of its bitter hatreds and fears. Of one blood God created all nations of mankind to dwell upon this earth. Therefore No man, or nation of men has any just right to enshrive or bring war upon the other. God created Man—and not races.

Have you ever stopped to ponder over the facts—pregnant with Negro glory—that the Nordic first heaps civilized wry recently, as time is reckoned in general recolored history; and that then the Nordics acquired learning for the first time, acquiring it from Negroes alone? Do you ever pause to remember that at that time—when education had become indeed highly evolved, when neither the Nordics nor the western Mediterranean Aryans had gyr attained to learning—pre-eminence in learning was divided between Asiatics and Negroes, and between those peoples alone? Because such truths are so discordant with the alleged history of colored races that is being taught in all parts of the English speaking countries of the world, one of the pressing duties of Negro writers and speakers is, not to restrict themselves to generalities in contradicting the false teaching, but specifically to contrast the false history with the truth. Did you ever know of anything about Arzachel before you read the title of this article? Are you not now receiving for the first time the truth that that profound Negro scientist corrected a decidedly serious mistake which Copernicus committed and never corrected? It is high time for Negroes who are otherwise highly intelligent to learn the true race history that for years has been systematically suppressed. Nicolaus. Koppernigk (Copernicus) was born in Thorn in 1473. As you well know, he was born when most white Europeans adhered to the nonsense of a sun revolving around a flat earth. Copernicus, a Polish astronomer guesed that the earth is flat. He believed that the sun. Because he taught that, the true solar system was named in his honor. In his six books concerning "Revolution," Copernicus spoiled his scientific work by introducing such an unscientific notion as a "perfect figure," calling the circle a perfect figure. Deducing consistently from that empty-assumption, Copernicus concluded that the planets revolve around the sun in circles—a grave delusion which he never dispelled. Contrast the Nordic's misleading conjectures with the investigation by a Negro of the eleventh century of the Christian era. The latter, Arzachel was one of the most distinguished astronomers of his age. He greatly advanced the science of astronomy partly by the fact that his observations of the planets were more accurate than any such observations that had ever been performed by any human, being known in history. By accurately calculating from his own observations, Arzachel discovered that which white astronomers verified several centuries later, and that wasn't that the planets travel not in circles but in ellipses. Here arises a fact that suffices in a popular article: Whether the planets travel in circles or travel so exceedingly differently as Arzachel concluded is a question that is exceedingly important in astronomical science. The true solar system was discovered by a Negro; but it was BE A POWER ON EARTH These articles are just what you need—for real luck—if that when one carries a loadstone, Rabbit's foot or wears a Chinese luck ring and burns Zandoras Power Incense, they always possess money, which is power—then everything one device comes to them, so says the creatures of the East—excuse one of these No. 4 luck outfits and be a man among men— SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY NO. 4 OUTFIT 1 Can Zandoras Power Incense; 1 Chinese Good Luck Ring; Adjustable; 1 Zembra Loadstone in Luck Bag; 1 Rabbit's Foot Charm—You NULIFE MANUFACTURING COMPANY, Inc. P. O. Box 571 Indianapolis, Ind. $500 If I Fail to Grow, Hair B named in honor of a Nordic who never learned the exact truth. It is true that Copernicus was a great astronomer. Nevertheless, by the end of his life, he leagues an astronomical mistake for which Aschelch provided a correction more than three hundred years before Copernicus was born. In view of the fact that a Negro scientist was the discoverer of an "astronomical system that's still being named if honor of one who was an erring Nordic scientist, I wonder how many Negroes will contend that the real Copernican system" is, wrong and that the true solar system is "Aryzachel's system?" Of the two persons each of whom was a great scientist, who was the greater astronomer, Copernicus or Arzachel? A Few Facts Concerning William Hunter Dammond Native of Pittsburgh, Pa.

Como el siglo XVII los espa- foles sellaron de la Espaifola en busca de oro en la costa firme, Méjico, Peru, y otras comarcas, las filibusteros y bicaueros aprovechar de la bocaación para ocupar la íla de Tortuga adyacente de Haiti, y después a esta, que se llamaba Espaifola. Necesidad imperiosa de estadistas propios capaces de velar por nuestros intereses. No debemos tolerar el engaño por mas tiempo. La organización se esfuerza por la unión y harmonía entre nuestro elemento. Debemos realizar el derecho a disfrutar de nuestra existencia por ley divina. Los francéses dison el nombre de Santo Domingo a la isla encantadora, y permanecieron un siglo alli, de 1697 a 1804, fecha de la emancipación de la de Haiti. La independencia fue proclamada el 10. de enero de 1804, después de una guerra de trce años, con cortas reguestas. Los grandes estadistas, los grandes directores contemporáneos hacen esfuerzos sobrehumanos con el objeto de solucionar própiamente los complicados problemas que afectran a la humanidad en general. Para hacer comprender a los franceses que no querían caer otra vez bajo su dominación, los haitianos quitaron el nombre de Santo Domingo que tenia la isla y la nombraron Haiti, el antiguo nombre de los indios aborigenes, los primeros habitantes. Significa en lengua chenus tierra alta, tierra montañosa. La imaginación de los estadistas de Francia, de Inglaterra, del Japon, de Norte America, de Italia y de otros tantos gobierno reconocidos, está reconcentrada en el reajuste de los planes en cuanto al orden económico y político de la sociedad humana respecta. En mayo de 1806, el precursor Miranda recibió la ayuda del libertador de Haiti, Dessalines. En enero de 1813 don Pedro Girara estuvo en Haiti como enviado del general Guitierrez, que luchaba en Tamaulipas por la independencia de Méjico, recibió dinero del presidente haitiano Alejandro Petion. Desgraciadamente nuestro elemento no cuenta con grandes directores. Hasta la hora presente no hemos tenido aun verdaderos estadistas y las masas de nuestro pueblo continuan aceptando la intención de los directores y estadistas de las otras razas. Pos este hecho creen hasta cierto punto que las leyes constitucionales de este país; así como las de Inglaterra, Francia, Italia, Alemania y otros gobierno constituidos fueron escritas tanto para unos como para otros, ya sean estos subditos o ciudadanos. Pero la ayuda efectiva que Haiti dio a la América española fue el conccurso que Alejandro Petition presto a Bolivia en diciembre de 1815. La expedición que salió de Los Cayos de Haiti, entonces, comprendió siete barcas mercantes armadas en guerría y 250 hombres de desarmbaro. Los barcos se llamaron "Bolivar," que conducira al Libertador con su estado mayor y al almífate Brion; su capitán era el de fragata, Renato Beluche; la "Mariño", capitancada por el comandante Tomás Doboville; en su hardo viajaban Mac Gregor, Piar y otros oficiales "La Constitution," "Piar," "Brion." "Feliz" y "Consejo," commandadas por los tenientes de navio Juan Morne, F. Pinell, Antonio Rosales, Lomine y Fernando Ferreiro. Llevaban municiones, visiones, fusiles, dinero que el presidente de Haït, Alejandro Petitjan jubia facilitado a Bolivar. El tratamiento de que somos objeto bajo cualquier bandera que vivamos es prueba mas que suficiente para que realizemos que las constituciones o las leyes, cuando escritas por los primeros defensores de la libertad humana, nunca lo fueron con la intención de que nos cobijaran como pueblo o raza. Es simplemente una cuestión accidental el que seamos hoy o creanos ser ciudadanos o subditos de tal o cual gobierno o nación. Por este hecho llegamos a la conclusión de que muy poco o nada beneficioso debemos esperar de los esfuerzos que hacen al presente los grandes estadistas de las otras razas, estando plenamente demostrado que ellos beneficiaran exclusivamente a los suyos. Es por consiguiente una necendad imperiosa el que de nuestro elemento surjan directores y estadistas, capaces de velar por nuestros propios intereses. En el momento de la salida hubo un incidente: el comité mejicano que funcionaba en la ciudad de Los Cayos, por conducto del señor Anny, quiso embargar y retener la goleta "Constitución." El presidente de la Haiti y el gobierno de Los Cayos, general Marion tuvieron que intervenir. Es mas que absurdo el pensar que el tal llamado subdito inglés, subdito francés, subdito italiano, subdito alemán de nuestro raza, se ve emancipado de su lastimosa condición actual por medio de los esfuerzos de los grandes estadistas o directores de dichos gobiernos. Es razonable admitir; por la experiencia que hemos adquirido, que vivimos en una cría en la cual cada pueblo, cada raza, cada nación, vela por sus propios intereses a expensas de la debilidad y falta de preparación de los demás. En septiembre de 1815, el Libertador escritor alejario Pelitian para pedirle su ayuda otra vez. El presidente de Haiti contestó al Libertador Bolivar con una anabilisima carta en extremo estimulante —que se conserva en Sevilla— imitando a Bolivar a que fuera a Haiti a conferir a con el. Como pueblo, parte integrante del género humano, hemos sido avejados y engañados por centenares de años, encontrándonos aún sin dirección cual barca sin timón y a merced del desastroso torbellino de la intriga social. Existe sin embargo un faro luminoso, un puerta salvador: el programa de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra, cuyo principal objetivo estriba en el enaltecimiento de nuestro elemento tanto en lo económico como en lo educativo, y la constitución de una nación con un gobierno de nuestro pueblo, por nuestro pueblo y para nuestro pueblo. Petition cumplió por segunda vez, la promesa hecha al Libertador. Por el puerto de Los Cayos, de San Louis y de Aguin, sale Bolivar hacia Venezuela, con el siguiente acopte que hara, por los tiempos de los tiempos, impercedera la gratitud de América española al noble y abnegado puteblo-haitián que en la figura de su immaculado presidente, supo de tantas grandezas y de tantos sacrificios. Cuatrocientos millones de seres no deben permitir por otro siglo, más por otra década mas o por otro año más el verse subyugado por la planta de la opresión. Este contigente debe levantarse como un solo hombre y demandar, de parte de aquellos determinados a harceles permanecer en eterna esclavitud, ei derecho que como humanos le pertenece. Petition dio a Bolivar para la segunda expedición, cuatro mil fusilis, quince mil libris de polvora, quince mil libris de plomo, una imprenta, viveres en abundancia y dos millones de francos. Necesita recordar que entonces la joven republica antillana no terminaba de consolidar su paz interior y esperaba un retorno ofensivo de la metrópoli de ayer. Cuando a una persona se le priva de aquello que legítimamente le pertenece, no debe ir pidiendo misericordia o favores para recuperarlo; debe demandarlo en nombre de la ley, en nombre de la razón, en nombre de la justicia. Debe utilizar concientemente todas sus facultades, todo su poder demostrando así la clase de material de que esta hecho. Cuando esto aconteza los usurpadores se abstenidrán de cometer arbitrariedades y el orden de cosas actual se verá sometido a una variación, la cual redundará en beneficio de la tan anhelada paz universal. En Haiti se habla el francés. La religión dominante y del Estado es la católica romana. Los ocho arzobispos y obispos de Haiti son pagados por el tesoro público, así como todo el clero. Haiti firmeó un concordato con el Vaticano en marzo de 1860. La literatura de Haiti es una rama de la francésca. Las obras de los mejores autores y poetas haitianos son coronadas por la. Academia Francesa. El latin y el griego son obligatorios en Haiti, que tiene una convención con Francia, por la equivalencia de los titulos universitarios. Hay en Haiti una facultad de medicina, una de odontología, una de obetética, una de farmacia, entre No se alvida el gran Reunion del Asociacion Universal para el Adelante de la Raza Negro in Jamaica un anteater en la cama privado. Muchos médicos haltianos radican en Francia. El doctor Leon Aïdain, de Haiti, es director de un gran-hospital en Paris. Este médico escribió un libro sobre las fiebres paludicas, que sirve de texto en las facultades de Francia. Haiti tiene dos miliones y medio de habitantes. Todas las haitianas son negros y mililenas. Suñ afrolatinos. Como los japoneses, los haitianos no conoce el prejudicio de razas. Viaje en Proyecto El primer ministro británico MacDonald hará su proyecto visita a los Estados Unidos tan pronto como el Parlamento levante sus sesiones a fines de julio si no centre en el interin algo que de al traste con su programa, de acuerdo con la creencia expresada en lo circulos que se dicen bien enterados. Haciendo el viaje a Washington en esta época, Mr. Macdonald tendría tiempo suficiente para su proyecto visita a Ginebra en septiembre, cuando se reune la Asamblea de la Sociedad de las Naciones. No puedo hacer declaraciones definitivas de ninguna-clase, declaró Mr. MacDonald en los momentes de abandonar Londres con su hija Isabel para descansar en su hogar de Escocia por unos días. El primer ministro dijo que iba en busca de un muy necesitado descanso, pero que se ehcontraria de vuelta, el dia 21 corriente, parh presentarse en el Parlamento el dia de su inauguración, o sea el 25 del mes actual. La idea de una visita a los Estados Unidos por Mr. MacDonald ya ha recibido toda clase de clogios en los circulos políticos de la capital hoy, au cuando los periodicos conservadores se nuestrasse desesos de anunciar al nacio que el exprimer ministro Baldwijn habia aceptado una visita semejante poco antes de abandonar la presidencia. Nada se supo en Londres acerca de esto hasta que Mr. MacDonald subió al poder. Un buen entendimiento entre los Estados Unidos e Juglaterra, seria el primer movimiento de importancia que marcase la iniciación del segundo gobierno laborista inglés, el cual seria recibido, undurablemente, con regojojo especialmente al ofrecer medios de restringir os gasios para armamentos navales. El nuevo gobierno proyecta gastras sumas cuantiosas en disminuir los infortunios de las clases pobres de su nacion y confia que *estos gastos pueden ser contrabalanceados con economias en los gastos por construcciones yvajales. El gobierno laborista se muestra, favorablemente inclinado, también, a aumentar los impuestos para seguir prestando ayuda a las clases necesitas. Charles E. Weir, nominated by Congressman Oscar DePriest, has passed his entrance examinations to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. Not since reconstruction days has a Negro been admitted to the Naval Academy. During that period three were admitted but none finished the course. Mr. Weir is an here. That he will suffer the torments of hell is a foregone conclusion. He knows it. The arrows shot from the hands of prejudiced bigots will be constantly directed at him. Every possible handicap will be placed upon him. His heart will bleed because of ostracism. Every effort will be made to make him quit. He will be a lonely figure. Humiliation and sorrow will be his daily portion. However, he must sacrifice his feelings. He must smile when he feels like crying. In the face of damnable efforts to make him give up he must stick it out to the bitter end. His personal feelings must be sacrificed in order to achieve victory for those who love him and respect him for his courage in accepting a place which will probably cause him mortification and ordeal.—The Philadelphia Tribune. Every citizen can find his or her pace of beat help and then strive to fill it. Service in fact as well in name is what distinguishes men and women in all levels of society. By filling one's place in the community, one becomes more able to co-operate in helping those engaged in other lines of service. B. Has Arrived Well borne from it is just what you could tell: willing to. I know he and a boy are late work, as they must have a good light staged that has witty of your consideration or harangage. But he has one that will draw every fight fan out of Haram. What do you think of this? Al Brown and Kid Chocolate on the same card. No! not opposing each other! Al will take on Videl Gregorio. The winner of this scrap will be crowned Bantamweight Champion of the world. Brown is training in the country for this scrap and he should come in in the best of condition. In the semi-final, Kid Chocolate takes on Terry Roth. What? What? Who would miss this? What train are you taking? Better be over early. Say, boys. I almost forgot to tell you where and when. Well, here goes. This card will be staged over at the Queensboro Stadium, on Tuesday evening, June 18. This show will be given for sweet charity as the National Sports Alliance will be the beneficiaries. Al has signed over 20 per cent of his end to the cause. Good boy. Al. You always were a regular fellow. Quite different from what the big fellows are doing on the milk fund card. They are getting a hundred grand and want more. What price charity here? HAD A TICKET for the New Talent. Show at the Olympic last Wednesday evening but could, not make it, for which I was awfully sorry. Learned that it was quite interesting. There is one boy I would like to see arrive. That is Al Smith. Saw him stop some good boy a few weeks ago. He showed very good then. They say he hasn't got much heart. Well, he is young yet and may get over this. Let's hope so, anyway. WHAT SHALL IT BE? SO DEMPSEY has received an offer of $500,000 to fight George Godfrey in Philadelphia. The offer was made by Joseph Kennedy. Philadelphia promoter. This sounds good. Jack would draw more with Godfrey than he could with Paolino or Schmeling because Godfrey has a decision over Paolino. and since that fight a question was put to Uzucudun as to whom did he consider the best heavyweight in America. Without hesitation he said "Why George Godfrey" and added, "he gave me the hardest fight of my life so much so that I would not care to meet him again." So you see in so far as Finola goe, Godfrey is a mance to him. He wants no more of him. Now we take on Max Schmeling, the new comet, who gained fame because he bowled over Risco. Now let's see. Did not Risco fight Godfrey last summer-over at Ebbets' Field? Yes, he did and did not Godfrey beat him so badly that all the daily sports writers stated that he would be easy prey for any heavyweight? Well, Schmeling was the lucky one. Outside of this fight whom has he beaten? Now the right thing to do would be to match the winner of the Finola-Schmeling fight with Godfrey and the winner of this fight should be the one to meet Dempsey for the championship. Anything other than this procedure would be out, so I sincerely hope that the Garden Corp. will see it this way or that in the event they do not, that Fugazy and McMann or some other promoting combination will get wise and stage the greatest fight of the age. Don't forget! There are two more good fights that should be pulled this summer. Godfrey and the winner of the milk fund fight and the winner of this one against Dempsey.—All set. Let's go boys!
