Negroes Everywhere Called Upon to Brace Up Themselves, And to Be A Part of Worlds' Great Forward Movement, The U. N. I. A.
GET READY FOR THE CONVENTION — ALL ROADS WILL LEAD TO KINGSTON, JAMAICA, B. W. I.
Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: Why wait until the millennium? The time is now. "Not Tomorrow, but right Now." We have been waiting for centuries for a visitation from Above or for a change of heart on the part of our fellow creatures to save us from the wrath of oppression, injustice and sin. Know ye not that our salvation rests with ourselves? Believing which, the Universal Negro Improvement Association presents a program that calls for a world readjustment.
Throw Off Superstition
Negroes everywhere are called upon to throw off the superstition and the yoke of ages and brace up themselves to be a part of the world's great onward rush toward peace, security and power. The force that tells is not that engrafted with superstition, but that which is self-reliant and self-assertive. The force of power to create is that which sways and rules in the affairs of men, and that is why the Negro world must be stirred to a sense of its own responsibility. We must now be up and doing. No time should be wasted to the other fellow for that which we can do ourselves, but every minute put in with active demonstration to force a way to the forefront in the activities of races and nations.
Convention Called Together
Africa beckons to the Negro, requesting, nay, demanding, a deeper interest on the part of each and every one who retains her blood to assist her to arise from the sleep of ages to a realization of her usefulness, strength and power, as the home of the truant son of Ham. And shall we not answer the call of Africa now? Surely each and every one who professes the faith of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will do everything to assist Mother Africa to her new place and position among the nations of the world.
Africa Beckons
For this we are calling together our Sixth International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, not only to talk over the future of Africa, but to work for her development. She must be saved from the ravages and plunder of the unmerciful. Not only are the gold, diamond, coal and oil fields being exploited for the benefit of others, but now we understand that the entire radium area of the Congo is to be dumped in the spoils of European and American exploitation. Here we have it again that our sons and daughters are to be brought under the iron heel of the slave trader, to work and to suffer and die to supply the world with its wealth

of avarice. We did that for 250 years in America and in
the West Indies. We suffered unremittingly for 300
years to build up empires of other races, and now the
merciless, heartless world seeks to duplicate the same
thing in Africa. Shall four hundred million of us stand
for it? The answer is "NO!"
U. N. I. A. Makes Appeal
Thus, the Universal Negro Improvement Association makes an appeal to the four hundred million members of our blood to morally, physically and in every way throw off this new yoke that seeks to again grind out of us the manhood which the great Creator endowed us with to fight our way through the battles of life and uphold ourselves as a part of His creation.
Readjustment of Affairs
The International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, to be held in Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I., from the 1st to the 31st of August, will not fail in intelligently arranging for the readjustment of African affairs. We are not going to expect others of other races to disturb themselves in this direction to our good and benefit. It is for us to do everything to advance and protect our own interest. So the appeal goes out not only to the Negroes of America, the West Indies, South and
Central America, but to the Negroes of Africa themselves, to be ready to become a part of the great world sentiment that is now being promulgated toward the end of African redemption.
The World is Cold and Indifferent.
The world is cold, heartless and indifferent. It does not interest itself beyond that which is native to its own surroundings. Thus we will not expect Eaurope to be interested in the salvation of Africa, but for the advance of the Europeans. We shall not expect Asia to be interested in the salvation of Africa, but to the interest of the Asiatics. So we of Africa should, without any scruples, work toward the redemption of our own country, irrespective of what the world thinks. The great battle to exist is fraught with many dangers. Each group, in the great human family, seeks its own course and travels in its own direction. None relies on the advice or patronage of the other, but each seeks to develop under its own auspices, believing more sincerely and earnestly in its own counsel. Do not expect other races to be more interested in us than we are in ourselves, as to counsel us in the direction that would tend to promote and develop this land of ours. We must perforce rely upon ourselves, and thus we advise Africa, scattered, to reassemble itself for Africa united, Africa redeemed. Uniting our moral, intellectual, scientific and physical forces, there is absolutely no reason why in another quarter of a century Africa will not loom up as one of the leading luminaries in the constellation of nations. She once held the foremost place and position. She shall, by the energy and activities of her scattered sons, regain that place, and then stretch out her arms to bless all mankind and justify the existence of our common Father and the eternal human brotherhood.
Work Toward End of Freedom
Let us all work toward this end unceasingly and uncompromisingly. Wheresoever we be, we can contribute our part in moral persuasion, financial contribution, in physical labor and in intellectual leadership. This is the duty of each son and daughter of Africa, and this is the wish of your humble servant.
With best wishes I have the honor to be
Your Obedient Servant,

LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, June. 23rd, Under the suspices of the Garvey Club, the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association assembled mere night in mass meeting; and, as is the custom, listened with intense interest to the various speakers so they emphasized the state of things everywhere, and reiterated their abiding faith in the ultimate victory of Garveyism, in spite of the efforts of the ancient enemy to hamper the movement.
The meeting was opened by Miss Ethel Collins, lady-president, the vice-president, Mr. R. Pettis, being unable to attend through press duties.
A short concert program was rendered as follows: Selection by the sand, under the capable direction of Prof. Ulang Hassell; anthem by the choir, under the direction of Mrs. Dume, pianist; recitation by Master George Samuels.
Mme. M. L. T. DeMena Speaks.
Chairman, Officers, Members and
Friends—Tonight I wish to speak to
you on the subject, "The Negro in
Retrospect."
Ten years ago the war ended. Men
identify and grimly walked and placed
their signatures to what, was known
as the treaty of Versailles, consecrating
defeat of the German army. In colorful gold braid and navy blue,
they gave tone to the handiwork of
much men like Clemenceau, Wilson
and Lloyd George, and the millions
they commanded. They rejoiced, but
the German force was not conquered,
but they were made to sign because
the odds were against them. But they
were not defeated, and they de-
morally though physically wrecked
by the devaluation to hold together
through thick and thin, and today in
adjusting the seemingly impregnable
pass, must be considered as a power
to be reckoned with in world affairs.
In times of peace these *same nations* were doing everything possible to preserve their nationals. They patched up their differences, for the good of humanity, though all colors fought for peace. But peace that is built on patches leaving out the interst of all the element could not stand very long and that we find their treaties only lasting for a time. The stress of the righteous must prevail over the evil of alliances, the heart desire and greas of the black people are getting a hearing, dead and living, the poor, the Indian, and appressed peoples all over the world the gentil and justice begins to ride over the heads of proud generals and datemen.
Today we find men arguing that the world is no better than before, that although Owen D. Young made a master stroke in the recent Paris conference, men, because of greed and selfishness soon will fight again.
International discussions by these great men, some of us who are weakest that if in ten years the group we constitute have not derived any benefit from our sacrifice, what can we do? We who constitute the U. N. I. A. eddy still believe there is a hope for us in the next ten years, not by force of arms as they did ten years ago, but by force of reason; then the stronger powers of the world will see that we are as desirous of keeping

the peace of the world; as a group of 400 millions, as any other group—but justice must prevail along parallel lines.
We feel that the governments of the world will realize that if we form such a tremendous ratio of the world's population we will have to take our place in solving the peaceful influence of a world peace, and the complete destruction of exploitation, each group living and growing in the common cause of humanity, the Fatherhood of God, and Brotherhood of man.
Since the advent of Carvspism there has been a change in the Negro, and that change has its origin down in the hearts of our people, who have suffered tremendously for over. We know that to war is a foolish prophecy, and we know such destructive method of procedure, for this reason we feel that if whites men could cry out for liberty or death. Negroes will have to do something similar or die.
We feel today, with the spirit of peace abiding, and the rapid stride which we are making as a group that the powers will not put a stumbling block in our way, when we, after discussing our agenda in August; and our petition is properly debated in the League, they will see the great importance of giving equal opportunity to our group the world over, and instead of impeding our national aspirations will help us to set up a government in Africa, free from outside interference, and thus bring about a peaceful solution of the so-called race problem.
Address of Hon. J. A. Boltram
Chairman, Officers and Members—I am pleased to welcome you here tonight in such a large gathering. Indeed we have come to the turning point, the parting of the ways, and in this critical position, we fight our enemies within our own race and without are trying their best to handicap our effort towards freedom and liberty.
The Black Race need look no longer to any other race for advice or help. We must naturally look to ourselves, because the days of slavery are gone forever. Slavery threatens every race and nation that remains weak, and so the Universal Negro Improvement Association has come upon the scene in time to save the entire race from destruction, hence we need not look back to the darkness.
Africa shall be redeemed. Our race shall be emancipated, but all depends upon our present deeds and actions. Turn not away your attention from Africa, because Africa is the only salvation, and solution to the great problem. I am appealing to the Negro peoples of the world to listen to no other voice than that which beckons us to action, the voice that commands you to go forward in the name of the emancipated race, and Africa's redemption: the true voice that says "march on to a brighter future which is African Nationalism." Ethiopia shall arise from the ashes of material ruin, to the heights of her temporal glory. We see a new Ethiopia, a new African.
Mrs. L. W. McCartney's Address
Chairman, Officers, Members and Uniform Department --- Tonight I greet you in the name of Africa's redemption.
The hour his struck for universal activity among the Negro peoples of the world. It is for them now to concentrate on the building up of a great industry of their own. It is no use for the Negro to continue to depend on the good graces of the other races of the world, because we are living in... selfish-material age, when each and every race is looking off for itself.
Because of the scarcity of all that tenes to human nappiness and numan comfort, the Negro should at least make a desperate effort to build up great industrial plants, and institutions of his own. The world is large enough for him to operate in; and above all other places, Africa now opens up a golden field of opportunity
The strength of the nation resides generally composed of the mankind responsible individual, but unfortunately the traitors among the Negro race are generally to be found among the men placed in education and society, the fellows who call themselves leaders. This is the kind of leadership we have been having for the last fifty and more years. It is nothing but treachery of the worst kind. The man who will compromise the attitude of his country is a traitor, and even so the man who will compromise the rights of his race can be classified as no other way than that of a traitor also.
Let us keep our eyes on our indomitable, the Hon. Marcus Garvey who is paving the way for his race, so that they can be respected by the other nations of the world having as our motto, One God—One Aim—One Oestiny.
Dept. of Taxation And Finance, State Tax Commission
Approximately 110,000 corporations doing business in New York State are having mailed to them by the State Department of Taxation and Finance; necessary forms on which they will make their reports to pay the franchise tax imposed by state law on all business corporations, domestic and foreign; doing business within the state; doing business within the state; tax is payable January 1, or within 30 days after notice of tax, if given after December 1.
This tax is imposed on domestic corporations for the privilege of exercising their franchise in a corporate organized capacity, and on foreign corporations for the privilege of doing business in the State of New York, and is imposed at the rate of 4½ per cent on the entire net income apportioned to New York for the year preceding, or a minimum tax of one mill on the issued capital stock or on the net income, plus official compensation at the rate of two per cent. The fixed minimum tax is $10.00, but cannot be less than one mill on the dollar of issued capital stock, nor less than the minimum on net and compensation. All corporations are obliged to have this return for the state by July 1, where their books are on the calendar year basis. If they operate according to a fiscal year, or their business, such that they cannot make the report, they are given 30 days more than the Federal Government allows. If the Federal Government has allowed extensions for filing of reports, the state also allows a similar extended period. Of the proceeds of this tax collected by the State Tax returned, two-thirds of the total tax is returned to various cities, towns and villages of the state, on the basis of location of tangible personal property of these corporations.

the Air Force Mission Congress, delivered a remarkable charge at the 17th anniversary session of the National Congress on Boston University on Friday. The following portions of his charge should be read by every body: "The adapt of the white man into South Africa perhaps meant our death as a nation. We no longer have a Paramount Chief, over us as a people. We boast no longer a nationhood. We are broken up into several tribes." "We are politically disorganized. We are at the mercy of the white man and we are treated as the white man would like to treat us. We are suffering oppression. Veiled slavery. We have been deprived of all rights pertaining to human beings and are treated as aliens in the land of our fathers."
"We are treated as children. We are denied all representation in the legislature of the land. As a nation we are, practically dead. Non-existent in the councils of the world. We are a race of servants, hewers of wood and drawers of waters for the white mar. "But the Easter message this morning is because I live, ye shall also live (John) You have also been buried, buried in water, and he did. Already there are signs that a general shaking of dry bones is taking place, and the repressionist element is alarmed at this, as witness the inauguration of a policy of repression." The "Kafir or mad" manifesto of Hertzog Roos Malan is ample
In its effort to extend opportunities for Negroes in industry, housing and recreation, the National Urban League has conducted a concerted drive in many sections of the country during the past month. The executive secretary, Eugene Kincick Jones, has, visited Boston, Massachusetts, where he held conferences with business men at the Chamber of Commerce with the idea of extending the League's influence, and is leaving New York, Saturday, June 22nd, for San Francisco, where for a week he will lead a round table meeting and deliver an address at the annual session of the National Conference of Social Work, of which he is an executive board member.
T. Arnold Hill/ Director of the Industrial Relations Department of the League, is already on the Pacific Coast, having spent two weeks in Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington, where the Urban League movement is being promoted. His next stop will be Oakland, California, where he will work along similar lines. On the way west he addressed a convoitation at the University of Kansas at Lawrence, and appeared before the Bar Association at Omaha, Nebraska. This is the first time that the question of the Negro has been presented to this latter body. He also spoke before the Chamber of Commerce of St. Paul, Minnesota.
Ira DeA. Reid, Director of the Department of Research and Investigations of the League, has just completed a study of the Negro in Industry in the city of Denver, Colorado, for the Inter-racial Committee there, the purpose being to extend industrial opportunities for the colored population of Denver on the basis of scientific analysis of the situation.) On Monday, June 17th, Mr. Reid began a survey of the 'Negroes of the Hill District of Pittsburgh, Pa., the purpose being to devise methods to reduce the reduced and operational facilities improved. This study is under the direction of an inter-racial committee appointed for this special work.
Elmer A. Carter, Editor of Opportunity Magazine, has just returned to New York from Waveland, Miss, via New Orleans, where he delivered an address before a large gathering of citizens from New Orleans and vicinity assembled at Waveland at the call of Bishop R. E. Jones, president of the Gulfside Association, to discuss problems of public health.
Jesse O. Thomas, Southern Field Director of the League, who has just completed the field work of a social survey of the Negroes of Houston, Texas, addressed an inter-racial gathering at the Annual Student Conference of the Y. M. C. A. at King Mountain, North Carolina. He is now in Birmingham, Ala., working to establish a branch of the League thereto. The League announced from its offices at 17 Madison avenue, New York City, that there will be no let-up in the League's program for women. The League will now firmly the case with community organizations during the hot summer months. The industrial changes that are in progress generally due to the introduction of machinery and uncertainty in the labor market, require constant vigilance to ensure Negro workers that they will not be unfavorably dealt with in the spots that are occupying many positions.
most of the truth contained in this
presentation of the Constitution in
the Cave. No power of earth can stop
the resurrection of the African
Nation. No, not even is hundred
manifest.
The white man in Africa must be taught to respect the rights of black man. He must be taught that the African is 100 per cent a man, and that he demands a man's share in everything African. We cankok and will not, forever, be treated as the white man thinks fit. If the African is a pest, a menace, a danger to somebody, what is easier in the world than for him to pack up bag and baggage and clear out of Africa, and return to whence he came. African have been suppressed too long, they have been made slaves too long, they have been robbed too long, they have been made criminals too long, they have been damned too long, yet their home Africa has been made a veritable hell too long. If we have to continue breathing: the free air of God, it must be in a free Africa.
Africa must be made a heaven for her sons and daughters, whatever the other fellow thinks or does. I must be understood that we are not asking for favors, we are not begging for what belongs to someone else, we are demanding what is ours, we inquire about the whiteness, our right, our own, which nobody has a right to dehy us. To continually ignore our requests, our resolutions, our appeals, our demands of what is our own, is to head straight for such a disaster as has not been witnessed in this country.

Fooling Ourselves
The state has come for Negroes to stay fooling themselves, in that they presume the much more legal land of White. That is to say, that there is something radically wrong or different with the religions of the two races.
Now, if you haven't a radio, I would suggest that you invest a few dollars in one, as to be able to hear some of the many helpful sermons that white ministers preach to their congregations. They never tell their congregations about long white robes, starry-crowned, and golden slippers to be worn in the great hereafter. But, instead, they tell them of the necessity of big corporations, skyscrapers, banks, and other industrial and commercial institutions and the like for the preservation and survival of the white race on this earth. By the Good Book I have his brother, the Good Book I have his brother, would that man should do to you, do even so to them." However, it seems that the white man has forgotten the Negro in America, in that he is his brother's keeper. But, as every race and nation at this time is in the struggle for the survival of the test, the white man is looking out for his, which is perfectly right, to the exclusion of all others. Therefore, as Negroes should see to it that our ministers-preach similar sermons to us, something tangible for the preservation and survival of the Negro Race on this earth. Since, God created this world and gave man dominion over it, surely without a reasonable doubt, if we expect to exist, WE MUST LOOK OUT FOR OUR OWN INTERESTS TO THE EXCLUSION OF ALL OTHERS also. Negroes of Cincinnati, have you ever one time stopped to look at the grave predicament you really are in

"Learning must, be inseparably bound up with life," said Dr. Charles H. Wesley of Howard University, preaching the baccalaureate sermon yesterday for the graduating class of Fisk University. He based his sermon on the story of the Jew Paul in the book of the Acts, the story of the strange vision on the housecup when a sheet full of clean and unclean beate came down from heaven, the vision came to the vision vision came that two men, gentiles, waited for him below. Paul was faced on the one hand with thought, with vision; on the other hand with action, something to do for some one despised beneath him.
"Such thought and vision, such action are two halves of one common world," said Dr. Wesley. "In the ancient world scholars lived apart from the masses. They thought their thoughts, developed their philosophies, demonstrated their ample sciences in academies, or remote places and never tried to find a way to make them the possessions of people who waited below. Even in the middle ages men of learning were absorbed in visions. Scholars were taught to despise the earth and all therein; man was a pilgrim, beauty a sin, pleasure a snare, death the only certainty. When men like Roger Eaton, Copernicus, Galileo, Servetus, tried to think their thoughts for the men of this world, they were persecuted and told to go on thinking their thoughts and having their visions so long as they did not interfere with every day living.
"In the modern age tendencies point to the earth just as surely as they pointed to heaven in the middle ages. The test of learning today is
Negro Retailers Cooperate in Ala.
Recently in Montgomery, Ala., a small group of grocers, hard press by chain store competition, decided to do their buying collectively and to advertise as a group. They formed the Colored Merchants Association. Their stores are now known as the C. M. A. Stores, and their joint advertising appears regularly in Montgomery newspapers. Orders are pooled and buying is done through the office of the Association for each member's business. This movement, but with modern business practice, has already meant more profit, larger volume of business, improvement in appearance and service of the C. M. A. stores, and through its success has stimulated the Negro merchants of the city.
An outgrowth of this venture in modern methods was the campaign for better Negro business held April 15 to May 5 in Winston-Salem, N. C., conducted by the National Negro Business League and its Winston-Salem local together with the recently formed Colored Merchants Association of Winston-Salem.
The program of this campaign included the organization of the local Negro grocer into a cooperative burger association. A central feature was the set-up of a modern grocery store. The store of James A. Millington was selected for remodeling the plans and specifications through up-to-date, and as a demonstration of proper preparation and management, and in support of C. M. A. Storm the growth of the business. The project was presented at the National Negro Business League.
Just in this style, and with little cause or with personal conviction, I have one but two issues. I teach THE MINISTER AND POLICYMASTER. Therefore, it is imperative for the sake of the race, that we discard most leaders in the present and future, the most they make themselves known. There are two things that the Negro places too much stress on, and they are: the Republican party and Heaven. Now, there is one thing certain: if you live right, treat your fellow man right, and serve humanity, there is no doubt about, you will go to heaven when the time comes.
There was a time when the Republican Party really depended upon the Negro's vote, but, in the last few years since white women started voting, the same Republican Party has almost become 'a LILLY-WHITE PARTY. Hence, we as a race must form a Party of our own, and by that I mean, THAT WE MUST EDUCATE OUR PEOPLE, BOTH MEN AND WOMEN, as to THE NEED FOR THEM TO REGISTER AND VOTE for the protection of their political interests in this country and especially in the city of Cincinnati, where we are so far behind all other cities, whether small or large. Just think, Mr. Johnson, A Negro Mayor of Middle Height. Village, out from Cleveland, Ohio, will address the populace of Cincinnati Sunday, June 23 and here in Cincinnati with 40,000 Negroes we haven't even elected a man to any office in the city or county government.

Men choose their professions on account of income; the Bible is an old fashioned guide; things classical can give no aid in selling insurance or bonds, in manipulating stocks and cornering the market. And yet today influences are at work to bring the best of learning close to life. Lives are being shaped by consciousness through study of psychology, psychiatric therapeutics; imagination of the physicist, the mathematician is bringing the common man in close touch with all space and time.
"This is the true education." It is 'an awakening of the heart.' All great men have their visions, all great movements their inspirational moments; but sitting on the house top and pondering on the vision will get the world 'nowhere.' Christian groups sit and idly dream and think and talk of peace and the world is full of war; they talk of love and the world is full of hate and prejudice; they must translate their visions, their things learned, in the strange way that a dynamo translates power into reality for the men who wait below for help.
"It takes faith to come down from the houseup and join the men when between the two is a great gulf, faith in the vision and in the men who wait. It takes courage, a fearlessness of what people will say. It takes loyalty to the vision fit all costs. Members of this graduating class, you have spent four years with your thoughts and your visions; draw near to life. If you have learned new truths in history, go out to work for justice; if you have gained a new freedom, go out to end ignorance and superstition. Come down from your houseup and join the men who are calling for your help."
night, its shelves were entirely cleared of goods. Under the impetus of this success others of the twenty-two charter members of the Winston-Salem C. M. A. Stores are planning to remodel their premises.
Through lectures, the older school boys and girls, the housewives, the business men were reached and the public addresses of Dr. R. R. Moton, president of the National Negro Business League and of Dr. Gorton James of the U. S. Department of Commerce attracted wide attention. Thus the buying public was made ready to take advantage of whatever of values and service the C. M. A. Stores might offer. On the other hand, the talks to the grocers themselves on store management, merchandise display, advertising, cooperative buying and record-keeping, coupled with the demonstration store, so balanced the campaign that resulting stimulation of business means more than temporary gain.
That the results of this concrete work, planned and directed by Alison L. Holey, secretary of the National Negro Business League, will have far-reaching consequences there can be no doubt. It is a movement which bids fair to put courage, better business methods, and prosperity within the reach of Negro retailers throughout the South, offering at the same time comfort, fresh goods, clean stores, and attractive prices to businesses of Negro business—Southern Workmen for June.

Sunday, May 5th, Garvey's Day, was celebrated with much enthusiasm by the Sola-Division.
A striking feature of the occasion was the unveiling of a beautiful picture of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. This picture, in a beautiful frame befitting the occasion, is a gift by Miss Constancia Young, a faithful member of this division. Another pleasant thing was the visit of three distinguished officers of the Newvillas Division, namely, Mrs. M. James, Lady president; Mr. K. Cascoe, 2nd vice president; and Mr. B. Scarlett, Major of the U. A. Legions.
The meeting started at 4 P. M., being called to order by Mr. E. A. Wooldridge, general secretary. The captain was safe, and could not attend.

Mr. Smith welcomed the officers from the Neuvitias Div. and expressed his pleasure along with the entire membership, for the visit. He then spoke on the subject, "The Achievements of the Hon. Marcus Garvey."
The audience sheered loudly as he recalled the many difficulties and impediments that the Hon. Marcus Garvey had overcome through his zeal to liberate his people from the bondage mental slavery. He then proceeded to have the picture unveiled.
As the time came to unveil the picture, two little girls, Miss Natalia Stephens—and Miss Maye—butch stepped forward. After singing one verse of an appropriate hymn, and reciting a short dialogue belitting the occasion, the chairman raised the audience, the guards presented arms.
and everybody sang the Presidential hymn, "God Bless Our President," "God Bless Our President," raised the covering until the audience was exposed. Great was the applause when everything was over and the picture was presented to the gaze of the admiring audience. Two of the Legionnaires then marched with the picture all over the hall where everybody could take a look at it. meanwhile the offering, was lifted. The program then continued. Major Scarlett and Captain Thorpe then turned out the Legions, and along with the officers of the Div. marched around the hall with the picture, after which the officer of the Div. the Library Hall which waswooded for beside the Division's Charter. Directly after the picture was unveiled, M.C. Young, the giver of the picture, was introduced. Great was the applause she received as she stood on the plattform. She kindly responded with a soo.
The chairman then thanked the visitors for their presence and their encouraging words, and promised that he and other officers of his division will return a visit to the Nuevies Div. in the near future. Heuvivis Div. will continue the patience and brought comfort to a close at 8 P. M. with the singing of the ktaopian National Anthem and prayer.
This division is working strenuously to send a representative to the coming convention in Angust, and has hardly taken this medium of collecting the support of the Negroes of the country its esteem.
It is with pleasure that I have to announce that the Guantanamo division is again on the scene. It is a long time that our voices were heard. We were not dead but badly ill. Anyway we again are on our legs, although not strong, and hope to acquire strength to be able to hail the N.Y. Navy. On Sunday night, June 2 we celebrated Garvey's Day with a befitting program, which was as follows:
After the usual ceremonies of the devotional period, the president gave his usual encouraging address, after which a solo was rendered by the lady president; then a recitation by Miss Claris Millhousne, followed by an address by one of our ex-Presidents, Joseph Mathias; next was a solo by Miss C. Brathwaite, then an address by N. Berrick, followed by a solo by Mrs. A. MacLeon, then an address by the Second Vice President, S. Johnson, followed by a solo rendered by Mr. Wallis, then an address by S. Hillhouse, chairman of the trustee board. A rousing solo by Mrs. A. MacLeon marked the closing of the program.
Amidst the gloomy appearance of the evening, we had a very good gathering, and a pleasant evening was enjoyed by all. The spirit of Garvevism is still in our bodies and we hope to be as strong as we were a few years ago. We trust for a greater revival of spirit, that we may be found among the front rank in the day of reckoning.

The Sola Division No. 69, U. N. I. A. is now one faithful member less, through the departure of Miss Constance Young, who has left this locality for her home, Jamaica. Miss Young joined this division from August 1925 and has been a faithful and financial member, up to the time of leaving. She also served in the office of assistant treasurer for a good part of that time. We regret to part with Miss Young, and hope that her good work for the cause may be continued. Our loyalty, as long as her life shall last. Through the plentiful rains at present, and the muddiness of the locality, our Spirit meetings are irregular, but our spirits are still undeemed in regards to the noble work of the U. N. I. A.

Atlanta, Day, No. 633 U. N. P. held a successful mass meeting on Sunday, June 9th, at Liberty Hall 332 Edgewood avenue.
The meeting was opened by singing "From Greenland's Icy Mountains." Devotional service was conducted by the chaplain, Brd. Wm. Mack.
A program rendered by Mrs. Katie Jones.
The following speakers were on the program. The front page of the Negro World was read by Mrs. Leila Brown. The reading was commented on by ex-president Rev. J. W. Shy. We had some remarks by Mr. Leastie Whitfield. A solo by Mrs. Ruby Barren. We had some inspiring remarks by our vice-president, Mr. W. R. Conner.
The next speaker was Mr. Owens Mahone, who gave us quite a soul stirring address. A liberal collection was lifted. We next listened to some announcements, from our president. Also the general secretary made an appeal urging all members to co-operate with the officers in business meetings; and know about the business activities of the local as well as the mass meetings, etc. A wonderful address was delivered by Rev. P. Dattson Subject. The Cross and Iow Gell. In the second session the remainder reminded his audience that the Hon. Marquis, Garvey came on the scene in 1914 and crossed the custom of the people, even as Jesus Christ crossed the custom of the Jews. He said that when Jesus plucked the cars of corn on the Sabbath day, that was the beginning of the cross he carried to Calvary's Mount. "As the speaker proceeded, he said that Garvey crossed the custom of the people when he began to cry "Africa for the Africans at home and abroad." When Garvey began to wake up the Negroes and set them on to nationhood for Negroes, Garvey and his followers thus shouldered the cross; and we are determined to die on the cross if need be, that our children may be raised in the land and but snakes including Rev. Dattson. The meeting was closed by singing the Ethiopian National Antho-
Much good, is in the tiltage of the fallows, but for others it is gathered without judgment.
"Proverbs, 18: 33rd." In last week's article, "Poverty," I had mentioned that ignorance and fear were co-partners to Poverty; "Ignorance," therefore, is indeed an appropriate subject to write on at this time.
We hear a great deal now a day about the "oplored man should be educated, if he wants to be successful in making, a place for himself in the sun." While there is some truth in these overworked statements, we must not forget that, our forefathers were the educators of the world. And today, we can with safety match our educators with those of any other race, and feel assured in advance of our victory from a conventional education standpoint. No other race or people can boast of having more seemingly educated groups than the Negro race. However, in spite of our fine educational standing, our university and college graduates, we have demonstrated more ignorance than the so-called savages, and the red men, who are labelled incompetence combined. Search the Scriptures and, you shall find that the colored peoples of the earth, were the leading nations. They gave to the world their wealth and knowledge without thought or due consideration for their own. And, we the younger generation, having the opportunities not given our fathers, not to mention the improved methods of transportation and communication, are foolishly going through life with our eyes practically closed. There is no getting away from the truth, Negroes are a living disguise to their Creator. We seem to act as though we do not know that there is really one. Perlaps, we have allowed the curse of Ham to be an excuse for our shortcomings. Get this—and get it right: Casper, one of the "three wise men," gave as a gift to the babe, Christ, the symbol of death "myrrh," which showed that the ever Forgotten Son had redeemed once more his regal prestige among the sons of the Father.
"For thy sustenance showed thy sweetness to thy children, and serving every man's will, it was turned to what every man liked."

THE GREATEST CONCLAVE OF THE NEGRO IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD
The sons of Cush, Mazraim, Phut and Canaan, being free, should act like free men and women. This is possible through the awakening of the dormant qualities from within. Your mind must be trained so that you will be able to think constructively. Let us not fatter ourselves because of our intelligence; after all, we have been for centuries fooling ourselves. Some take the Bible to prove their case that we are ordained by God to serve the sons of Shem, and to be servants forever. Others believe that we were made poor, and that it is God's wish that we remain thus. Again, the colored man, though he feels that he is here to work out his own salvation, yet he consciously allows himself to drip through life accomplishing nothing as it were. A man not asleep, but seems to be in a profound sleep, while his uncles' sons are enjoying all good things, happiness and peace.
(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 Rare Problem.
(3) The creating of a thorough educational system for the higher education of the Negroes of America, the West Indies, and Africa, resulting on the founding of three Negro universities of a purely technical character—one in America, one in the West Indies, and one in Africa.
(9) The practical effort of uniting every unit of the Negro race throughout the world into one organized body. (10) The formulating of plans to unify the religious beliefs and practices of the entire Negro race.
(4) The creations 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.
Now then, if one knowingly antispersely does a thing which is to their own shame and disgrace, and others considered more intelligent do likewise, is it not enough for you to call such people either lunatics or simply ignorance personified? The thing is, not what you believe, rather that which you do. No one is willing to have as a companion, a person who is not only weak, but shows his weakness. It is indeed bad to be weak, and it is dangerous to be strong, and to play weak.

the writer when he says, "that when this colored race is conscious of the fact, that it is still the greatest race on earth, its numbers would stop decaying themselves and begin to act like intelligent human beings." However, the joke is we like to be anything but ourselves, and when others treat us as we ought to be treated, we are sure to kick. You cannot play the part of the baggar on the stage of life and expect to be given the homage of a king. Read your Bible as you should, and you shall understand that if the youthful white race has accomplished much, it is possible for us to do likewise. Of course, to do so we will have to abolish ignorance of things material and spiritual, and to insure ourselves of understanding and wisdom. We are badly in need of these two qualifying pillars of Solomon's temple.
You cannot deny the fact, that the colored race may be compared with the man who was considered by his friends to be a man among men. And whenever they noticed that he was not, living up to his standard, they would reprimand him; but, he would always reply thus: "Say fellows. I know that I am a good man, however, you fail to remember that I have a wife and five children to support, and cannot afford to waste a day to try to put over a big proposition." No matter what his friends did say, or to help him to see his real worth, he would repeat the same formula. Well, one day the gods had their way, and Father Neptune took his wife and the five children while they were crossing a river on a ferryboat. Poor fellow, he took too strong drink, no doubt, in an effort to forget his loss. And whenever his friends tried to inspire him to be his old self, he would say, "Have a heart, boys, have a heart! It is different now; I have no one to care for, my wife and children, are dead, and I do not see any reason of my going after big propositions now."
It is safe to say that once we make up our minds to play the game according to the rules, it would be a matter of only years when we shall have our rightful share of the world's goods. There is no reason why we should not open our eyes and free ourselves from our personal devil—ignorance. We are sold on the thought that we are still the great people our fathers once were. We will step out like men and do our women and children a real manly turn. We cannot afford to allow others to tell us that we are inherently ignorant of our real worth in the scheme of things. We have had enough of this "you must be educated first" stuff. We are after all, men of action, not babies; empire builders, not rainbow trailers. With God's love and the spirit which fainteth not as guides, we shall keep on the upward march until we shall have entered our father's house of many mansions being worthy sparks from the Divine Plame.
CRICKET
Gleaners C. C. in Glorious Defeat
"Twan Last Over . . . Last Ball
VAN CORTLANDT PARK, June 22. We have witnessed interesting cricket-matcher games which have been recorded in cricket history; but, few indeed have surpassed the great dream that unfolded itself on the green sward of the park this afternoon.
Gleaners was a team whose mere mention, in times gone by, instilled fear in the breasts of opponents. Even the mighty West Indian C. C. of a past era, respected the youthful ensemble that performed in the silk of gallant Gleaners C. C.
At this time, such stars as A. Gittens, Ben Wells, G. Springer, K. Spencer, A. and L. Lewis, O. Dear, P. and B. Brathwaite, were playing at the top of their form.
The leading clubs of New York and vicinity bowed their proud heads in token of defeat, when they met the champion Gleaners aggregation. This club possessed plenty of light, adhesiveness, unity of spirit, that made it a joy to play for.
But, we do not have to say: "Turn back. O time. in thy flight." Intermittently a few of the stars return. Once a Gleaner . . . always a Gleaner. That is their attitude. The men may give their services to other clubs, but they return; eventually; if not to stay, in an effort to uphold the tradition of their loved Gleaners C. C.
Today, well remembered faces took their respective places in the Gleaners line up. Antigua C. G. came the opponent. Gus Springer, the club's Century bat, D. Bennet, the old master, and A. and D. Lewis were a few of the old timers present. They put up a mighty defense, but bad handling of the acting captain robbed the team of a well-earned victory. Antigua was permitted to run up a score of 168 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. Something unheard of in Gleaners past. Errors on the part

Iving Cooper made an effort to the effect that his inaugural skool, "Bambodia," will open at the Royal Theatre on Wednesday evening, June 26. The company has been augmented to seventy seats and the bank under the direction of Lieut. J. Tim Brynn, will number fifteen. Included in the cast are Isabell Washington, Brevard Burke, "Dusty" Fletcher, John Mason, Billy Corte, Monte Hawley, Hilda Perlstein, Winters & Marano, Revella Hughes, Billy Andrews, George Randol, the McClain Twins and "Derby." Sam Rose is staging the numbers. New comedy sketches have been installed since the Brooklyn engagement and a travesty on "Harlem," which played this season, has been whipped into shape and will contribute part of the action of the second act.
Irving Cooper announces that he has engaged Cecil Mack's ensemble of Southland Singers to fit in with the "Bomboola" company, opening at the Royale Theatre, Wednesday, June 26th.

Australian Aborigines, The First Broadcasters
How the Australian Aborigines, Although Entirely Uncivilized, Have Developed a Highly Technical and Complicated Method of Communication Through the Use of a Remarkable System of Smoke Signals
In the early days of Australian exploration the pioneers were greatly puzzled to know how it was that wherever they went, their arrival had been anticipated by the natives. The riddle remained unsolved until the white man realized that the aborigines had a wonderful system of smoke signals, which are as clear in their meaning to him as a telegraphic message is to civilized man.
If it were merely a matter of sending up a column of smoke, the aboriginal's idea of signalling would be merely the obvious method-of communicating his own whereabouts, or the approach of an enemy to the camp. But his system is much more comprehensive. By its means he can make known almost anything he desires, for in reality, it is a crudite form of Morse code, and must have been in common use thousands of years before the very race to which Morse belonged was evolved.
When an important smoke signal goes up, the limit of its significance, or news value, is not confined within the boundaries of the territory controlled by the tribes sending it, but is repeated by tribes who may have sent it. Thus it travels the original senders. Thus it travels the reaches districts hundreds of miles away where the senders are entirely unknown.
TO OUR CONTEST AGENTS
The fact that these smoke signals were well understood by all is proof that practically throughout the continent, a common code prevailed. The coastal natives and those inhabiting hilly country, where timber is plentiful, make more frequent use, information than do those of coast Australia and the open plains. In no part of Australia are smoke signals more used than in the ranges on the eastern const of North Queensland. Away inland on the Diamantan, when the country around that river was—a happy hunting ground for the aboriginal, the passing of a traveler through the district would be signalled from one vantage point to another; so rather uncommon to know that one's being watched by unseen eyes, whose owners await an opportunity to become openly hostile.
The aboriginal employs different methods of signalling for different occasions; the most common is to build a fire of dry material, on which he heaps green boughs, creating a dense column of black smoke. If it is necessary to continue the message when that has subsided he repeats the operation.
Another method, and one which required a good deal of skill, and, at the same time, displays much ingenuity, involves the selection of a and a standing tree with a hole at the base, and when it is well underway green leaves are thrown on it. The drought created by the fire sends the smoke up and racing through the hollow trunk at a great height.
When it is necessary to break the smoke column, a sheet of bark, or the skin of a kangaroo, is thrown

In the early days of Australian exploration the pioneers were greatly puzzled to know how it was that wherever they went, their arrival had been anticipated by the natives. The riddle remained unsolved until the white man realized that the aborigines had a wonderful system of smoke signals, by which the doings of the bush were broadcast for hundreds of miles. The study of these smoke signals opens up a story of entrenching interest, one which involves the beginning of the human race. The Australian aboriginal is often described as one of the most unexplored types of surviving humanity. No doubt there is a good deal of truth in this, for his is probably the only race which has survived, uncontaminated by contact with others, from pre-historic times.
It seems paradoxical that, although the aboriginal's mentality is of a barbarous order, he should yet have

Signals Repeated
momentarily over the fire, and as rapidly removed, causing the smoke to issue out of the top in puffs, much as it may be seen coming out of the tunnel of a railway-engine. By these means, and by varying the length of the intervals between the puffs, which has a special significance, intricate messages are sent.
The color also of the smoke has its meaning and the aboriginal is adept at shading the scene, shade he-desires. The lighter tints are produced by burning dry leaves and wood, while the heavy black column is caused by the combustion of green, resinous boughs.
Lilie most primitive people, the Australian aboriginal makes his womenfolk do the unpleasant jobs. Only when he goes out to battle does he leave his wife behind. When hunting she is the "beast" of burden of her "lord" husband. Also as for smoke signaling, it is she who collects the material and does all the work come with it. Sometimes the man does the initial signalling, but they usually leave it to the women, who are equally expert. There were wild scenes of excitement at that particular spot when the first fleet was sighted and the great Kamiliary tribe sent up the first signal notifying others tribes of the event, which in a few hours, could easily be repeated to the Queensland border, many hundreds of miles north. This was quite close to where Sydney standd to today and where the first landing of white men was made. At that time thickly covered with bush, while today it was covered with mud, and the great Kamiliary roy tribe that greeted the first fleet on that memorable occasion has since been completely annihilated.

Too Much "Mother Love"
"These Are My Jewels," by L. B. Campbell. Published by W. W. Norton & Co. 135 pages. Price $2.00.
Mr. Masterson, although a predictor of the 10th century is a modern mother, that her children are equipped for life since they are old enough to think for themselves. Her many clubs do not permit her from overseeing everything her children speak, do of mind; so that when Maitrise, the youngest, broke out in immaculately language there, is some engagement that she belongs to the family at all.
Where Henry marries a girl unknown to his mother, the new family is ruled with such completeness that she forced to remove from his mother's deletion. Hardly has she recovered from slow when the death of Mr. Maitrise in world war reveals his secret marriage.
The energetic lady now turns her forces upon her daughter, Violet, whose husband flees to Paris, leaving her because she could not bear separation from her mother. The restored calm of the Masterson household. Again broken by the marriage of Maurine, the independent. Her refusal to "try Sammy out on the family" shocks and grieves her mother, who plunges into fresh club activities to soothe her sense of injury.
The story reveals a wide understanding of the problems arising frequently between the mother-in-law and her children. It gives the reader an insight, into these relationships such as rarely gained from vicarious experiences.
The revolt of the children against too much protection presents a moral which applies to every situation upon which 'mother influence is brought to bear unduly'. Written in splendid style, tinged here and there with fine irony, this book affords an interest which not only entertains but instructs, and which may be invaluable to mothers who are inclined to be too protective.
It is *Gisle Campbell*'s first novel, and presents a vivid delineation of a vividly dominant personality unwieldy and unwieldy own home and invaded those of her children. The disastrous results of her well-intentioned efforts are told with nasparing clarity and directness, not unmixed with the pathos always attendant upon failure.
This picture of a mother who, equip her children for life and then refuses to let them face it, is a 'powerful argument against the dangers of too much mother-love,' and

SCANDAL IN HAITI-CORRECTIONAL OF PORT. AU PRINCE
(Special to Editor.)
I wish to bring to the attention of the American people the account of the great protest made by Malkin people on Monday, April the last in the occasion of court of Port-AuPrince in spite of the power of Aude U. S. Gen. John W. Russell and his army of marines in Haiti. This has not been mentioned in any of the American capitalist papers.
This demonstration because of its value should not be kept in secret, in view of the fact that such news is of great interest for the American people who are interested in the present Haitian situation. Furthermore, to take away the false propaganda as contained in books like "Magic Island" Black Haiti" and so-called "Illustration of King Christopher" which represent nothing more than advertising of American Imperialism in Haiti and the other Latin American countries which aim to show that this Imperialism is necessary to civilize the now-savage colonial peoples.
The form that this "civilizing" takes is:
1. Jailing of those journalists that expose the daily crimes that are committed by the occupation on the Haitian people.
2. Beating up of the radicals who fight for the liberation of Haiti.
3. Injunction against mass and street meetings.
4. Wholesale murder of workers and peasants who rebel against the increasing slavery that is forced upon them by the Imperialists.
The Imperialists are now getting wholehearted support from the pupet government headed by Borno and his Judicial, Board, which board, by the way is no longer elected but appointed by Borno. Incident in court Monday, April 1st, when three editors of "Le Petit Impartial", the most militant newspaper in Haiti which fights for its freedom were put on trial; Jacques Romain, Ellie Gerin, George Petit, were arrested and put in jail for publishing in their issue of November 14, 1928, articles dealing with the almost unimaginable treacheries committed by Louis Borno against the people of Haiti; articles exposing the extensive grief for which the Haitian clergy composed of '800 or more French priests and clerics; These articles further expose the crimes and robberies that have been committed by the marines, since 1915, on the Haitian people. One of the most atrocious crimes committed by the marines that these editors enumerated, was the capture of General Bataville in Mirebalais, 170 miles from Port-au-Prince, where he was hung on a tree and stabbed to death.
Six of the most competent lawyers in Haiti, Emile and Victor Cauvin, Louis Raymond, Yrech Chatchin, Antonio Vieux, Devil Pierre came to the defense of the three editors. The court room was not large enough for the number of sympathizers that came to hear the proceedings, and many remained on the sidewalks waiting for the outcome. When Judge Leon Lahens who was presiding, gave the floor to the defendant, Roamin, he

Is it a young lady who is beautiful and charming. I'm not so bad myself and we are both sure we want each other. And also do why shouldn't we, many lives.
I can't be so beautiful and laugh at us? I know it was love at first sight though I often hear people say that I love it so much. What do you think?

wanted him to state his reasons for attacking Borno, the clergy, and the so-called High U. S. Commissioner in Hatti, John W. Russell. Roamin answered, "Gentlemen, to give a complete answer to this question would require my going back to 1922 to report on the situation of the nevers of President Borno dictated by the American Imperialists and their political clerical tools."
The militant editor, Romain, was interrupted by Judge Lahens in this imperious manner, "How dare you speak like that about the honorable President Borno?" From all corners of the court room came loud protests against the judge, who handed attitude of the judge. This judicial betrayer of the Haitian people called upon the inspector of the secret police, L. Bonte, to see to it that the police and marines either maintain order or clear the court room. This caused further indignation and protest from the crowd assembled, whereupon Judge Lahens declared that the law empowered him to intervene in the absence of the audience.
Mr. Yrche Chatclain, one of the defendants' lawyers protested against this interpretation of the judge. Attorney-General C. Lanoue, took the floor and stated that the defendants were brought to court and particularly Homain, for "outrageone crimes committed in their press" against the President of the republic of Haiti and other noted personages in Haiti. Lanoue declared further that "the accusations against the editors will not only be for the above mentioned crimes, but for the added crime of having spoken on the floor of the court room against the President of Haiti, Bormo."

EVANSTON, Ill.—The king is dead; long live the king. A new "fastest human" ascends the throne whence none but the swift may sit. Eddie Tolan, of the University of Michigan, spectacles and all, ran the 100-yard dash in 9.5 seconds at the Western Conference outdoor track and field meet held Saturday at Dycho Stadium, Northwestern University. Tolan in breaking the record despatched George Simpson, noted Ohio State state, by a hair's breadth, Simpson, himself tying the world's record. Eddie Tolan was one time nastic in the 9.0-yard and 100-yard dashes. He is a sophomore at the University of Michigan. He came from behind in the last twenty yards of the dash, raced shoulder to shoulder with George Simpson for a few yards and then gradually drew away, breaking the tape a split second ahead of Simpson.
The record of Tolan beats the recognized record of 9.6 held jointly, by Howard Drew, another famous, colored spinner, Charley Paddock, Cyril Coiffe, Dan Kelly and Chester Bowman.

The young student of chemistry is very anxious to commence the work of experimentation. It does not take him any length of time to find out that by combining the elements of oxygen and hydrogen in their rela-
tive proportion water is produced. This commodity occupies three-fourths of the whole surface of the globe. From this we can see that its usefulness is not to be lightly computed. It is one of the necessities of life, and a generous supply of pure drinking water is one of its greatest benefits and therefore one of the best safeguards of health. More than one-half the weight of both animals and plants consists of water. Its confines is not limited to the earth but in the atmospheric region it is present in the form of vapor clouds, etc. When water has neither taste, smell nor color we speak of it as perfectly pure. It is the best solvent known. There are some substances which dissolved very readily in water while others do not react so easily to the process. It is the consensus of opinion, however, that all substances are more or less soluble in water. That being the case it is almost impossible to discover in Nature water which is absolutely pure.

Don't eat too heavily when the weather is too warm—and see that the children are not allowed to eat to excess. This does not mean that one must starve. Merely cut down a little on the heavy foods, such as bread, meat, fish and eggs, and continue to enjoy your green vegetables, your fresh fruits and your beverages such as milk, ice tea, grape juice, lemonade, and of course, good cold water.
Avoid ice-water, but serve ice-dwarf. There is a difference in these. Ice-water is water filled with bits of ice, so that the temperature is a little higher. It is not good to drink this to excess, or drink it rapidly. Better far is ice-dwarf-water that has been placed in a bottle and set aside in the refrigerator to cool. It is plenty cool enough to drink, and by having two or three bottles on the ice, one can always be sure of a cool drink.
A SUMMER SALAD
3 tablespoons rice (brown preferred).
1 cup orange juice.
1. Cup finely chopped peanuts.
2. Cream cheese balls.
3. Wash rice and cook for seven minutes in boiling salted water; drain.
4. Cover with orange juice and cook in double boiler and rinse it is tender.
5. Add pineapple and pineapple nuts; sprinkle with salt and arrange on lettuce leaves with cream cheese balls.
6. Serve with cream mayonnaise or French fruit dressing.
atmosphere. It eventually falls a rain, snow, hall, dawn, sinks into the ground, reappears as springs, or flows on the surface in rivers back to the ocean and seas.
Some of the substances contained in solution are common salt, salts of magnesium, salts of lime. These are found mainly in sea water hence it is not used for domestic purposes. River water has fewer salts than sea water, but contains much organic matter in various stages of decomposition. When such is the case the water should be filtered before drinking. In well regulated cities the process of purification is carried out before it is distributed to the inhabitants for consumption. When filtration cannot be carried out all suspected water. If the water has been standing in a lead pipe or cistern for any length of time it is advisable to run the water for a little before using it for drinking. This is a precaution against lead poisoning.
Water is entitled to be classed as a food because it enters into the structural composition of all foods as well as the tissues of the body; it is an essential factor in the diet, even though it cannot of itself build tissue, repair waste or produce heat or energy. A healthy individual should drink a large amount of water daily. The baby should be trained to drink a small amount of boiled water every day.
A part of the water taken in is eliminated through the feces. This is of benefit to those who are habitually constipated. In acute fevers water regulates the body temperature in a marked degree. Whenever, there is dropsy cut down on the water intake because the system is already water-legged. There are many who resort to spas or mineral springs for the cure of certain ailments, as rheumatism, sclatica, gout, lumbago, neuritis, etc. These baths can be indulged in to a modified extent at your home. Ask your family physician about it.

SERVE SALADS THIS SUMMER
The summer salad is valuable not merely because it contains light, balance that are needed to balance the acid-producing foods eaten, but also because it serves to satisfy the appetite and fill the stomach without furnishing too many calories to a heat-turfed body.
Serve a salad with every dinner, even though it be the simplest kind of a salad. Half a banana, half an orange, a few cherries or lettuce leaves with a touch of dressing will do. Serve it ice cold and it will be relished by all—family and guests alike.
Inspirados con la esperanza de que una gran comunidad africana resurgiría para orgulló de nuestras generaciones futuras. Cada miembro de la raza tiene un sitio reservado en nuestra organización. Su programa abarca todas las fases de las actividades humanas. Su propósito debe permanecer estampado en nuestras mentes luchando incantemente por su realización.
En la jordana por el árduo sendero de la vida, aparece ante nosotros la visión de una nueva era como resultado de los esfuerzos de un pueblo nuevo. El volver la vista hacia el surgimiento de America, elevándose al puesto que ocupa entre los pueblos y naciones del mundo, nos inspira con confianza y esperanza—lo que actualmente se considera un sueno irrealizable—el que en dia no lejano una gran comunidad africana resurgirá a la palestra de los pueblos y naciones, para gran orgullo y mayor satisfacción de nuestras futuras generaciones.
Apesar de ser un hecho veridico el que en distintas ocasiones nuestro elemento ha aportado con su óbolo al engrandecimiento y gloria de esta nación, sus ciudadanos blancos no consideran esta contribución como un título al derecho que se reclama bajo su Constitucion. Ellos, sin que nos quede la menor duda, han demostrado una y otra vez que es un país exclusivamente para blancos, descubierto y desarrollado por ellos y para beneficio de sus generaciones. Afrontando esta actitud y con una fuerza preopotente en contra nuestra presentimos la derrota. Por tal razon la Asociación Universal para el Avelanto de la Raza Negra patrocina el programa de una nación propia para nuestro pueblo.
Cuando contemplamos las maravillas de esta civilización occidental, creda por medio del genio y perseverancia del hombre blanco, ello nos lleva al convencimiento de que ese mismo hecho histórico puede repetirse en cualquier otro punto por cualquier otro pueblo o raza. El panorama de un Nueva York, Filadelfia, Pittsburg, Chicago, San Luis, Los Angeles y San Francisco es una inspiración para que nuestro pueblo selífido de igual modo ciudades en una comunidad africana.
En la persecusión de un objetivo tal tenemos que llevar a cabo una gran labor, siendo imprecindible la cooperación de todos y cada uno de los elementos de nuestra raza, para quienes nuestra organización tiene siempre sitio. Nuestro programa abarca todas las esferas de las actividades humanas y por ello hacemos una apelación comun a los cuatrocien millones de miembros de la raza; con el objeto de que se adheran a nuestras filas y bajo un mismo estandarte defender una causa mas que justificada. Con la unión en un propósito podemos marchar hacia adelante haciendo una buena impresión ante un mundo que nos observy y adquiriendo un sitio apropiado en el escenario de las realizaciones humanas.
Los que patrocinamos este movimiento de progreso para con nuestra raza estamos llenos de esperanzas, satisfiechos de vivir en esta era de cambios y de adelanros. Mientras hombres de otras razas se esfuerzan en la promoción de aquellos cambios necesarios en pro de su intereses, nosotros estamos también determinados a hacer aquellos cambios que nos eleven al standard del progreso humano.
No es de esperarse el que llevemos a la realización todo lo que anhelamos sin antes afrontar gran resistencia a oposición. Los grandes propósitos han sido siempre realizados por medio del valor y determinación de las partes interesadas. El progreso de otros pueblos adquirido por el ingenio organizado es un ejemplo que nos alienta en nuestra lucha por llegar a la meta de nuestras aspiraciones. Nuestro objetivo debe permanecer estampado en nuestras mentes y debemos luchar incesantemente por su realización.
Nuestra organización abriga la esperanza de un renacimiento en nuestra raza, que la incluya como pueblo progresista en el gran concierto de los demas pueblos, legando a sus hijos, a las generaciones venideras la gloria y el honor. a que son creedores los elemento.mas capaces de la especie humana.

Peto por este vez el mal genio sera vencido, por la inteligencia de los pueblos gracias a las leyes divinas-que la naturalezela le brinda a diario, para su bienestar y mejoramiento y al mismo tiempo para su defensa.
Las hecatombes que han horrorizado a la humanidad en los campos de batalla, podria seguir horrorizando si se le permitiera al "mal genio" lleyar la guerra adelante, incluyendo ya todo sin excepción -sera el ultimo dia del "mal genio" -los pueblos de la tierra, mujeres, hombres y niños, sin privilegios ni selecciones se por el instinto de conservación, se uniran, sin prejuicios de creados ni de razones y vendrá la "revolución universal" contra los gobiernos, o sean los genios mayos y contra la hida del militarismo que son sus instrumentos; en mano inteligente de la clase proletaria del mundo que ya la esta labrando con cincel de acero, y en aquella revolución, peloibles serán los gobiernos; porque el "imperialismo" y el egoismo de una unidad o grupo no podrá substituir, buscando un poderio y una felicidad, a expensas de un materialismo bruto y de exceso esclavizando a la humanidad, los pueblos sajones, plasmos casi en su mayoria en esta forma de espíritu, desde hace siglos, al fin parece que han llegado a acomprender, que la felicidad humana es un privilegio espiritual que se forma y se depura con la cultura y en la ciencia el respeto, muy distante al culto de las fuerzas brutas momentaneas moldeadas en un exceso de material que altera el orden de las oposas, y toda alteración es una violación de principios divinos de la naturalza y que fuerzas inhumanas y no pulimentadas, la traducción en odio, egoismo, y guerras al final, en vez de paz y fraternidad humana.

Nueva.York y Chicago son las únicas ciudades. estadounidenses con más habitantes que Filadelfia, la "del amor fraternal", urbe con más de dos millones de habitantes, que estena la a la par que los rascicielos de ordenamiento, un dantesco organo industrial, "royne" caffones son milhares de chihuahuas que enten nocha y dia sin permeación de humo y oolín. A origen, la bacha y el tio Dantel siyen de fondo al palazzo comercio-industrial; al oeste gr. ve el estilizado
Schepliell con el Parque Palmeras sobre sus migrantes.
La febril actividad industrial de Filadelfia ha expresión en la imágenes producida de sombras, tejidos, cigarros, obras de hierro, locomotores y transportes marinos. Pero, aparte de rasca cielos, fabrica y mercados, Filadelfia tiene cosas que la hacen distinta del resto de las grandes uses de Norte América, características que la redimienta del pedaco de monotonia de que adolecen muchas -de las ciudades americanas- Ahi está, por ejemplo, el famoso "Salón de la Independencia," donde se firme el acta de separación de Inglaterra, con la "Campana de la Libertad" que anungio-al-mundo el surgimiento de una nueva nación, recinto donde más tarde se firmara la Constitución que aun hoy es estatuto sumo del país.
Los fundadores de Filadelfa pertenecian a la secta de los 'Amigos' o "Cuáqueros", grupo religioso que apareció en Inglaterra en el siglo 17. El cuaquero proclanaba infáctamente las virtudes cristianas de la mansedumbre y la ami-tad. Y el cuaquero ortodoxo era ultra-pacifica, se negaba rotundamente, a empunir las armas, arguendo que el matar era anti-cristiano. Hoy dia, la secta, figura entre las mutas del mundo protestante pero sus dogmas y principios han sufrido modificaciones más o menos. fundamentales. El actual presidente señor Herbert Hoover, pertenece a esta confesión y concurre a la iglesia cuáquera de Washington.
raíz de la aparición del movimiento cuquero, sus doctrinas atrajeron la atencion de un acuadalado joven ingles, de nombre Guillermo Penn, quien abandonó la iglesia ortodoxa de Inglaterra y se convirtió a la nueva doctrina. Entre los principios fundamentales de figura la de que el mal hacer juramento alguno. También, los cuqueros se negaban a quitarse el sombrero delante de los grandes, tildando la usanza de vana. Como resultado de sus extratas ideas, los nuevos sectarios, fueron perseguidos. Ei mismo Penn, a pesar de su influencia en la corte, fue reducido varias veces a prision. Y puesto que la Inglaterra de Carlos II mostraba intolerante con los disidentes religiosos, Penn concibió la idea de fundar, en el Nuevo Dumbo, una colonia que sirviese de refugio a los perseguidos por causas de concencia Penn tacil fácil acceso a la presencia real. Carlos II nunca pudo hacerlo que se quitar el sombrero, el rey se descubrió ante el cháquero y que este le replicó "cubrios, majestad". Carlos le hizo ver que el protocolo prescriba que donde estaba el rey no más una persona de deberia permanece cubierta. Tor fin, el rey le concié a Penn a porción de tierra en la costa oriental de la América Inglesa en pago de una deuda que la corona tenia con el padre de este. La carta-patente marcaba los limites de las colonia de norte asurire la costa del Atlántico y hacía el oeste en "cimino de tres días". A efecto deocular la mayor cantidad posible de tierra, los colonos se consideraban los mejores andarines del dia, los que avanzaron mucho hacia el oeste, hasta los limitos actuales del estado de Pennsylvania (Selva de Penn), que recibió al nombre del rey en honor de la familia de Guillermo.
En 1682, Penn trazó personalmente, en lo que era cela virgen, lo que es hoy la ciudad de Filadelfia. Fué este cuajero máximo el primero en trazar una ciudad estadounidense en la forma rectangular, con calles anchas y derechas. Poco después, unos colonos sucres se estabilieron cerea del campo,mente cuajero, y con el tiempo la colonia se conjetó en barrio de la "Ciudad del amor fraternal" (Filadelfia), nombre que Penn dio a la pucha.
Victima de la juntolerancia religiosa de Inglaterra, Penn, al instrucceur en solar americano, lo primero, que hizo fué estatuar la absoluta libertad religiosa en su colonia. Los primeros colonos en colonias amebros de la sexta, ingleses y elemanes. Los alemanes se congruen en un lugar que llamaron "Germantown (Villa Alemana), que es el barrio 22 de la moderna Filadela. Los alemanes constituyen hoy dia porción muy prominente de la poliagión del estado de Pennsylvania.

Harriet went on mass to Queen bore Stadium last Tuesday evening. Businessman, a maid and mailed him, all could be seen gathered in all sections of the stadium.
Every train that pulled up in Queens between the hours of six and nine p.m. discharged a load of human cargo, from Harlem and other points west of Long Island. I have been in lots of amusement crowds, but out of all mobs, me, go, please give me the fight mob. There is no question of color with the gang in a fight arena, around these parts. The meet congenial and sociable bunch you want to meet are fight bugs. "Hello, buddy! Give us a match, will you?" Another, Say what do you think the box-onight. The fellow behind you: "Baby boy that I saw you in the corner. Gee, a fellow in the north-east corner knows his mitts." Now a wise cracker mutes in. "I'll bet anybody five to twenty-five that Chocolate takes this guy Roth in the first." A picker-up, "What was that, five to twenty-five?" "That's what I said." "Say, here's a klute. Take the air, will you."
I could go on and on. Of course, all during this confab, the surroundings are full of ha! ha! ha! That's a hot one, and say, you're a wise bird." "I'll bet you've been hanging around fight clubs a long-time!" Another one injects: "Yes, I bet he has alright—one night, and that's hours too long." "Better go home. Mama spank."
Well, the arena is filling up. Only a few sections vacant. Lots of ladies out. Let's get going. It is 5:15 p.m. Here they come. They are off, boys. What corner do you like to night? Well, I think the south-west corner will be the lucky one to night." "You know, fellows, if there is any one thing I can do at a fight, it is to pick the winning corrier," said a wise man from the east side; and would you believe that every one that sat in this joker's corner lost."
I've been sitting in on nights a long time, and this was the first time to my mind that I ever saw one corner lose all through. I am glad he did not pick the other one.
Well, the two first bouts are over. Now Harlem slam up to take notice as the first two bouts were white boys; but now we were to have what everybody went out to see. "Say, what's the hold-up? Why don't they come out? asked an impatient customer. It seems as if they wanted to put the main bout on as they generally do before the semi-final. But it seemed as though Brown did not want it that way, because Gregorio was out about fifteen or twenty minutes before him.
At last they get going. Brown used a left jab that was just too sweet. I have never seen Brown in better form. He sure is of championship timber. Gregario was just another pass-over for him. Most everybody wanted to see the winner win by a knockout. This almost happened in the thirteenth round: In this center Brown sent his opponent down three times, once for the count of eight. I personally think that Brown could have taken him in this round if he wanted to because after the third knock down. At stayed off and allowed Gregario to clear his head. Well, here's the fifteenth and last round. Brown is just go fresh as he started, dancing all around the white boy and stinging him with that left. The fight is over. Brown is declared the winner by a long margin as he winten thirteen of the fifteen rounds easily. Everybody is satisfied with the decision. Only a few rock heads to register disfavor.
They are now clearing the decks for the Kid to do his stuff. And did he do it? Well, that is history by now. Although this boy Roth was panned by the majority of daily sports writers, I want to say he was the gambest and most determined opponent Chocolate has not. So far I saw the Chocolate-Graham and Chocolate-La Barba games. These two white boys might have been more scientific and all that, but this boy Roth tore in after the Kid like it was nobody's business. He had Chocolate in trouble and so distressed once that it looked as if this nobody, an unknown, would do what all others failed to do. But this only proved to be a good intention, as the Kid got down to business, and tore his man to pieces. So much so that the bout was stopped in the third round by

We are sure going to get plenty of action this summer, now that A.A. Brown is champion of the Basketball weights; and KD Chocolate is making the boys in the fatherweight division set up and take notice.
I must say these two boys pitted against. good opposition will fill any park. I thought McFaham is the wise man I thought he was. Look what he has gone and done. Here's what has plenty of "TT." Say so, say so!
Say, fellows, I just hate to spill it, but I cannot keep this one from you because if I did, you would fall out. Hold everything because I am going to splash—the date will be July, 10th, the place will be Ebbets Field. Now for the low-down. Silence, not a word, while I percolate. Al. Brown will defend his crown against some good opponent. It may be Archie Bell of Brooklyn. Bell has been, going very good here of late and should make it quite interesting. I hope that Al will turn out to be a real knockout Brown. I was inclined to tag him this way some years ago when he was fighting regularly at the Olympic Club in Harlem. It was nothing new for Al to send over that deadly right and the fortunate one it would fall on did not have to wait for a bed time story to go to sleep. They was the good old days.
Say Al, come on give us some more of the old-time religion. We surely liked you that way. You have developed a wonderful left lab. It is worth a cold million bucks for you; but say the mover never liked a champion that depended on points to win a fight. Please do not take any leaves from Tunney's book, because his was a sad story. You are not forced to carry any one now. When you step in the ring, make it a point of business to finish the job as soon as possible.
Kid Chocolate, who fight Ignacio Fernández in the semi-final is the right type of fighter. When he goes in there, he steps in to go to work and puts everything in his work. If he can knock his man out in the first round, he hangs out his goodnight sign, and packs up for home. Ah, what a man! He is a good example for any fighter who intends to get anywhere in the beak busting game.

THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION must begin by stocking which is our duty. Let us stock in the past and see that what others have done, we can do.
Let us stop talking, and do now, as now is the most important time. Let us do something without the request of our Hon. Leader, Marcus Harvey. Let us finance him so strong that he will be more enemies more forcibly. "Now," is a volunteering time. Let us show the world, that we have, the spirit that the English had. Yes, the same spirit that enabled England to be mistress of the seas. Now, let every soldier come to attention in the person of $1.00 as special guarantee and show the enemies that they cannot win. As we know the enemy is lurking; but, every member rushing one step forward, we have to stop and form other plans, and at that very moment, Marcus Harvey, will climb over at the top and Africa will be free.

Negroes Are Becoming More "Africa Minded"
BORO, Negro Words:
Far reaching changes are taking place in the minds of the Negro peoples everywhere that will surely mean much for the future. Negroes in walk of life, and beginning to study their condition, and notable comparisons. The result of this analysis reveals to him many facts of vital importance, and whets his desire for further investigations.
The U. N. I. A. has led the way in this great racial awakening; and it is the purpose and intent of its leaders to so continue until Ethiopia has been resurrected. The so-called inferiority complex was the result of a partial mental hypnotism, brought about by the doctrine of white psychology. But thanks to the counteracting influence of Garveyism, we are today seeing things as they are, rather than as others would have us see them. Marcus Garvey has lifted the veil.
Self improvement must come from within, and it is encouraging to see that Negroes are grasping this lesson and applying the corrective measures, necessary. The New Negro understands and is determined to have a government to protect his social, economic, and political interests, rarely with little liberty and freedom, are his insatiable rights, and that no true happiness can exist without them. A free and redeemed Africa means liberty for one and all; therefore we are proclaiming a new declaration: "Give Us Africa and Liberty, or Give Us Death!" ARTHUR S. GRAY. Los Angeles, Calif.
To the Editor:
The American public is continually told by members and benefactors of occupation that only a few discontented individuals, but the following, does not justify their assertions.
Some months ago a news dispatch from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, informed the American public that three Haitian newspaper editors had been jailed, as it was about the 40th time some editor was grown in little comment was made.
These men were arrested and are on trial for having printed articles against the Roman Catholic clergy, and the occupation of their country by J. S. marines.
A few weeks later, their case was called in court but adjourned after the editor, Jacques Roumain, answered to a hostile district attorney that brought forth applause from the audience.

S. In Haiti at the time when President Hoover is calling for respect of the constitution and observance of law in this country, the case of the newspaper Petit Impartial, was called this morning. The palace of Justice and its surroundings approximately to that of the Five Ministerial Departments, in fact all the square of Place Haitian and the palace which is the seat of the government, one of which also guarded by American officers, and Haitian gendarmes. Nobody can enter without a card issued by the Police Department, even several lawyers were refused admittance. Lawyers Dulzy corroborates this in the next issue by letter, part of which reads as follows: "The fact that I was one of the lawyers of the accused; did not suspend the password. I thought that such an order could not concern the Bar. The American captain to whom I made, the observation answered, that the order carried no restrictions. It is only upon intervention of the President, of the Bar, that entered and asked with lawyer Victor Vuitton that an act be made of the, vexatious employees employed against the Bar Association, first time since the institution of our courts. In the court a sinister atmosphere, that of the sittings where Fouquier Elnville sent the accused to the Guillotine, that of the expeditif Justice of Martial Law.
On this line, Lawyer L. Raymond remarks that the audience is not a public one as required by article 135 of the Penal Code, and article 96 of the Constitution which will nullify the trial. Despite the evidence, the district attorney maintains that the articles of the Penal Code and of the constitution have not been violated, and decides Judge Bahren who manages in a tragic part. Lawyers Dulzyar, Cauvain remark that "even lawyer lawyers have been refused entrance to the tribunal". The district attorney declares and judge declares that the lawyers are in wrong for arriving late. verdict is postponed for another sitting of the court.
At this moment, although the court was filled with government employees about 20 persons want to shake hands with lawyers Chatelain and the accused. This impatient lieutenant Rolin Roe from accepting his sister. The former pusher off, a fight ensues between them, during which the Director of the Petit Impartial is wounded in the head with a black-jack.
We believe that the American people are still lovers of justice and fair play, therefore place this issue before them so that they may dispense of it as they see fit. Thanking you for your co-operation, I beg to remain.
Yourself,

Calls for Manhood
To Assert Itself
Editor, Negro World:
Hark! what do I see yonder, far, far away; I wonder can it be the downfall of strong nations, or the rising of a new generation? Men of Ethiopia, can't you see? What does it mean—the gathering of the clouds? men of Africa, yours sake, Arise, march forward and carry your stand an men, never looking by ward. The cry of our mothers is so soulsfaring, far and wide—equip yourselves like men, be strong.
Awake, ye men of Africa, soil, protect your lands from alien spoil. Cry out for freedom, liberty, or death—protect your mothers, wives, slaters and daughters from the expellers of our land.
Awake, ye men of Africa, race, and come ye forth for mure's sake. Show the world that you are men, on whom we women can depend;

Once a Poor Farm Boy—Now A Singer Before the World
Not so very many years ago, Re. Land Hayes was doing the chores on the small Georgia farm of his mother, an ex-slave.
He managed to put himself through school and college while helping to support his family.
Encouraged by friends to develop his voice, he struggled for years to train it and to gain recognition, meanwhile taking every sort of job to make ends meet.
He scraped together enough money to go abroad and give a recital in London, with this step his fame waned definitely made. He became the talk of London, and then of Paris, Vienna, and Berlin.
Each capital marveled at this young singer, so modest and quiet-mannered, yet so utterly master of his voice, of their own language and style in song.
At that time only certain American cities had heard him. When he re-crossed the Atlantic, he soon held the attention of America at large to a degree never before won by an American-born musician.
Roland Hayes is a Negro. What he has 'done others can do. Do not give up hope because you are a Negro. If you can do a thing better than any one else—the world will honor you, if you have the courage and determination to forge ahead.

S. Military Occupation from this sister Republic, a return to constitutional government and thus assure his re-election for a third time.
For this purpose he was voted on the 17th of May the sum of $6,300 for purposes by his 21 Counselors of State, a group so called to fool the Americans as a disgrace, regarded by most Haitians as a disgrace, body since it is composed of the nominees of Mr. Borneo and not chosen generally from the best elements of Haitian life.
Gagged by a law, rebidding public subscriptions, the Union Patriotique d'Haiti cannot as it delegates to the state to protest against this plot, the Union, in response to appeal to the Press, to superses liberty for help, by protesting and giving merciless publicity to these sinister planers.
