Look Out For Next Week's Issue! Get Your Copy Early Read "Why We Follow Garvey," by R. T. Brown. Don't fall to read it. It grips the heart, rouses ambition. It spurs to action. The Indispensable Weekly The Voice of the Awakened Negro The Negro World Reaching the Mass of Negroes The Best Advertising Medium A Newspaper Devoted solely to the Interests of the Negro Race VOL. XXV.—No. 24 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JULY 20, 1929 Sixth International Convention Greatest Conclave in History of Negroes Stirs Humanity GET READY FOR THE CONVENTION — ALL ROADS WILL LEAD TO KINGSTON, JAMAICA, B. W. I. We are fast approaching the time when we will hold our next Annual International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, at which the vital issues of our race will be considered and legislated for. It is known everywhere that the only serious world convention of Negroes is that held under the auspices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, where not sectionalism is discussed nor narrow-mindedness but where representatives of the race from all parts of the world congregate to give information to each other about world conditions as they affect us as a people, and to legislate against them for our general uplift and improvement. It is fully realized that if the Negro is to be saved, it cannot be done in sections, but as a whole, and it is for that reason that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is linking up the 15,000,000 Negroes of America with the millions of Negroes in the West Indies, South and Central America, Canada and Africa, so that all of us can co-operate and work for the common good. We believe that it is only by the congregation of this great scattered whole that we can help the scattered minorities as they exist among other peoples, abused, downtrodden and oppressed. Our Sixth International Convention will surely go down in history as the greatest of all our assemblages, because thereat we are going to have presented to us, in an intelligent and elaborate manner, those important issues that we must decide before we can march ahead toward progress. This will not be a convention on paper nor a convention of men who speak only from their lips, but it will be a gathering, serious and determined in its import, which shall not fail to make its impress upon the thoughtful minds of the world. It is known everywhere that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is a serious organization, struggling not for a change of our racial complexion, but for the development of a strong racial character. We are unlike other Negro movements, because we are true to ourselves. We feel that the Negro's place in the world will be fixed by himself, and it will be one of no mean order. We are going to fix a permanent place of empire, an empire upon which other men will not heap scorn and abuse, but will take pleasure in respecting because of the reflection of its higher civilization, culture and humanity. The Negro Is Humane The Negro, as everybody knows, is a humane creature. He loves justice. He loves peace. He is ever ready to bestow charity; hence, the free and liberal world is bound to accept the Negro of the future with open arms into the confraternity of nations and peoples working for a higher ideal. As Negroes, we are setting our aims and objects high. They are as high as the mount of human elevation. We ascend where other men ascend. We climb where other men climb, and we shall rest where other men in the highest accomplishment of all that is possible to humanity shall rest. Not until then. Universal Negro Improvement Association Eternal Yet, the Universal Negro Improvement Association is eternal, because it seeks to take the Negro into the possession of those things that are desired by all mankind for man's happiness, for man's pleasure, for end Delegates from All Over Civilized World Looking to Momentous Gathering in Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I.—Industrial Leaders Coming — Will Fix-Status U. N. I. A. Is Serious Organization—African Nationalism. Will Become a Reality—Interested in Carving a Density of Our Own—To Develop Race Potentialities Ethiopia Must Be Restored to Ancient Glory Says President General — On to Kingston man's comfort, and that reaches to the end of time. Man seeks not comfort and happiness for a day, but he desires to perpetuate it even as long as life lasts. So we are going to work for the accomplishment of this high aim, and we call upon the four hundred million Negroes to rally behind this august organization and help us put the program over. The fellow who lacks backbone, initiative, purpose, racial, samina and character will naturally say that it is impossible for Garvey and his crew to accomplish the idea of empire. But why should we waste time about the improperly educated men who have not benefited by their knowledge of history? Races That Have Climbed to Empire The black race is not the first that has made an effort to climb the heights of and pinnacle of empire. Other races less favored than the Negro of today started to climb, and reached higher pinnacles than ever we aspired to. Didn't the Briton, the slave of the Roman, make an effort to climb, and did he not climb out of the clutches of he merciless and heartless slave master to the heights of British imperialism that now sways the world? If it were not impossible for the Briton to climb to the heights of empire, why should it be impossible for the Negro of the twentieth century to climb likewise? But these so-called intellectual and educated fellows who have been fooling the people and working for the advancement of their own selfish selves will now realize that the common people are looking at history in the light of modern intelligence, and will not take their instructions and information from those who cannot profit by the experience of the past. What is there impossible about nationalism for the race? Is nationalism impossible to the French? Is nationalism impossible to the Englishman, to the German or Italian? Then why is nationalism to be impossible to the Negro? Has not the Negro the same feelings, passions and desires as other men? Surely so, and with these desires, passions and ambitions we are going to rise to great heights, and the Negro who says "No" may as well hang his head in shame and be satisfied to get out of the race The Builder of Nations The working men of other races, not philosophers, have made their nations. The working men of the Negro race shell yet restore Ethiopia to her ancient glory. Among Negroes this is not the age for philosophers. This is the age for workers. Philosophers are naturally the luxury of a developed civilization. We cannot afford to indulge in luxuries now at the expense of our progress. The philosopher may find a place among the people whom he loves so much, the great, white race, because he can live in the atmosphere for which he trains himself. That atmosphere he will not find among Negroes of progressive intelligence. To us, moderns of the Negro race, we are not so much interested in the philosophies of Socrates or Plato, but we are interested more in the philosophy of human needs. We are interested in the philosophy of feeding hungry men. We want, therefore, not so much the "literary philosopher" as the industrial philosopher. We want our Bismarck, our Hugo Stinneses, our John D. Rockefellers, our Carnegies, our Henry Fords. Among us Negroes such men are worth ten million philosophers, because they are men who produce, not fellows who consume Industrial Leaders Coming So our convention for 1929 will bring to our industrial leaders who will naturally lay the foundation for the stronger and more secure Negro industrialism. With such leaders we will march on until we have successfully built up the world industrialism that shall not fail to bring all else with it. It is not so much our politics and our society as our industry. After a people have established successfully a firm industrial foundation, they naturally turn to politics and society, but not first to society and politics, because the two latter cannot exist with our the former. So instead of the conceited, self-important Negroes trying to think that they are socially better than any one else, and remaining in that farcical attitude, it is best that we all come to the one level and realize that our first duty is to get together and build a race that will appreciate itself, but not become to be distinctive when there is no distinction. Members of the Race Should Help As members of the race, we are going to work everywhere to help make this convention a glowing success. Everybody can do it, and specially if everybody will contribute to the Convention Fund. Why shouldn't every Negro give to the Convention Fund of the Association for 1929 and make it the biggest thing ever held. The Association needs money to push through its program, and now the call is made for each and every one interested to respond. Yea, we appeal to you all over the world. Let our appeal not fall to the ground. Let us put it over. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association. "Edelweis Park," 67 Slipe Road.

There was nothing in the spirit of the audience that gathered in the Commonwealth Casino to attend the regular Sunday mass meeting of the U. N. I. A. under the auspices of the Garvey Club to show that they were daunted by the treacherous and unnally treatment they received at the hands of the landlords of the former meeting place. Old Liberty Hall, 130' West 138th street, where the 'friends' and supporters of Garveyism had met year in and year out for many years. A vast throng gathered outside long before the arrival of the hour scheduled for the meeting; many of whom had been in the meeting held at 3 p.m.; and when the opening hour arrived the hall was encoped. A new spirit of animation pervaded the atmosphere; and sleepy ones seemed to have been roused to a new awakening by the happening of the vices and the urgency on until last call-call." The hand, under Prof. Ulrich Hassell, was in place with all the charm and wizardry which musical instruments can provide for human ears and hearts. The Black Cross Nurses, the U. A. Legions, the Choir and the Motor Corps, as well as the Junior Cadet Corps, were there, spiked and span, neat and trim, the acme of efficiency, moving with a precision that would have done credit to Hannibal's le HOW ONE THIN WOMAN GAINED 11 POUNDS I list must tell you that McCoy's Tables are the finest thing.

The Processional Hymn, the opening ode, the resplendent of the prayers of the assentation, "God of the Right," and all the preliminaries were here to give charm and interest, and hearts in" that hall thrilled anew to the call of the messengers, as they formed, as they came from the hearts of determined sons and daughters of Ham, urging their fellows onward to the goal of their desires, and the bringing to pass the deep yearning, burning desires of their hearts. Among those on the speakers platform were the Hons. George Tupert Christian, of Columbus, Ohio; H. Shelton, too, of Kansas City, Kansas; Charles N. Japens, of Gary, Ind.; H. McQuinn, of Indiana Harbor, Ind.; Arthur Kennedy, of Jerriford, Conn.; Mr. Phillips, who displayed a valuable collection of U. N. O. A., and other patriotic African flags and fans, made specially for the convention in Kingston, Jamaica, and Miss Gladys Parker, whose splendid recitation on "Negro Women" won the heart of the assembled throng and won the plaudits of the house. Time would fall us to go into details of the various addresses, but suffice it to say that there was a revival of the spirit that was kindled when the Hon. Marcel Gayeve first heralded the cry of "Africa for the Africans, at Home and Abroad," and new vows were made in that vast assemblage, for the carrying on till they plant their colors, on the glory fields of Africa, till every vestige of oppression and the vindication of destruction is removed from the path of the Negro People of the World as they journey onward to the freedom of the race, and the redemption of the fatherland. Every one who came so that their visions of the time when the world will be bound to respect the Negro because of what he has done, and new converts were made for the cause of free and redemption Africa. Delegates to the Convention told of their being obliged to vote of their discretion guided them; but to remember to always be sure to vote with Marcus Garvey. They also reiterated the determination to carry out the beliefs of their constituents, and to keep on listening to the voice of the awakened Negro, and celebrating in the footsteps of Marcus Garvey, "THE AFRICA IS FREE." It was also the occasion of the farewell of the delegates of the survey. The first of the two consecutives, for the first time in the first ever meeting the United States last year, the 19th International Conference was held at New York City, NY, on Tuesday, July 18th. He was will be a Chairman of the Congress, given for the date given to the First International Conference until 24. There will be no changes for admission.

ANNO-The French newspapers are maintaining a direct allegiance concerning the situation in Morocco, but despite this the 'Central Archive' in Berlin reports that there is a revolt in programs in inner Morocco and that 10 tribes have risen. The cause of the revolt is that the lands are being flooded and more generously to the French 'treatie' settlers. Whose 'reliable' settlers are likely to resist who have won decorations in the war. Revolts are also reported from southern Morocco and from southern Algiers and 'L'Afrique Francaise' complains that the situation is so serious that colonization in the south has become impossible and that even commercial activity has been rebuilt. "La Depête 'Coloniale' reports a military action on the 16th of May to surround the insurrectionaries in the Central Atlas district. The nomad Alaoui, a member of the Allou Rho, one of the chiefs of the insurrectionaries, was killed. In order to prevent the insurrections from obtaining further arms and to secure the military hinterland, the new Resident General of Morocco is negotiating with the Governor of Algiers and with the Governor General and Commander-in-chief of the military forces in Spanish Morocco. The object is to close the Spanish zone and in particular the Ifti district and to persuade the Spanish forces to undertake military action against the insurrectionaries. Further, southern Algiers is to be occupied from Algiers in order to prevent any spread of the movement. NEW YORK CITY, June 24- ANP- News dispatchers from Cape-genton, South Africa, tell of serious rioting, in which thousands of whites and natives participated, which resulted in the death of one white man and four natives and the wounding of fifty-four of the rioters. According to reports, the riot had its inception in labor troubles and the killing of the white man by native, laborers climaxed the trouble which has been brewing for several weeks. Join Together Over Night Says P.McPhee To the millions of readers of The U.N. L.A. I am glad ask you in the name of Democracy to stand behind the leader of this race. Stand behind this per cent for Democracy, not the tired you bead and died for the battalion of El Franco and Flanders, but that Democracy that the white man survive to enjoy. You had shown yourself men as that time which was not your time; and had gain not that which you desire and tight for, but this is your battle now waging in all walks of life. Redouble your force and break the line of the enemy. Marcus Garvey, the greatest leader in this age is leading and with him at the head nothing can go wrong. Let us show him that on this side of the Atlantic and in Africa and throughout the world where Negro lives, heil him as our leader. Now, therefore, let everyone have $100 by the 30th of July as a special volunteer, and give it to be sent on the 31st night to the U. N. L. A. in care "M. G." Then shall all Ethiopia be joined together over night, and shall be gathered together in one night, even from the Tale of the Seal his spoken of by the Prophet. When shall all the nations know that we are serious minded. Be it resolved, that this does not come in, conflict with the working organ such as does, tax, etc., but it is to strengthen Maraiah with every turn and to make to make before he turns as you all know that it is our great fault and not his. If we are going down, and with through him we must keep always with a reserve and not allow him to tell us everything before it is done. Now he is strong, and he is of good courage and the same God that was with Moses and his people in the days with Marcus Garvey and his people of old. He is yet living, and will be in these days, "only be strong and violent." P. H. H. McPHEE. The Hour Has Come For The Negro To Act On Facts And Not On Sentiment Sunday afternoon and evening, June 22, Liberty Hall, the cradle of inspiration and freedom for Negroes in Cincinnati, was the scene of a galaxy of members, friends and well-wishers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in this section. Never before was there staged in the Cincinnati Division a more animated and spectacular meeting, as was witnessed in Liberty Hall up the above mentioned date. The very atmosphere seemed to have been charged with the spirit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the redemption of mother Africa. Our rostrum, and audience wert graced with the presence of many prominent visitors and visitors, among whom were: Dr. W. W Denner, of Sharon, Pennsylvania; Hon. Edward Smith, world's great. Negro aviator and parachute jumper; Hon. William C. Hicks, bank executive and nominee. Hon. Mr. Powles, contetator, and Mr. Bowles, note in these parts, who operates a beauty parlor in the beautiful Hotel Sterling, and Hon Richard H. Bacchior of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company. Because of the large artillery of speakers the program was cut shorter than usual. Hence, after a brief preliminary speech by the president, Sir William Ware, and a beautiful selection by the choir the speech making proceeded. Richard H. B. Bechler was the first speaker, who emphasized forcefully the need of encouragement to those of our group who are attempting to reach the highest pinnacle of human achievement. As is customary, Mr. Bachler received hearty applause at the close of his address. At this instant, Mrs. Bowles, one of Cincinnati's noted songs bird, ren- The Hour Has The Negro To And Not O By William Ware For the past four or five weeks I have been giving you some concrete advice and suggestions as to the method we should follow in electing worthy men of our group to the city council next fall. It is not a matter of fighting the Republican Party nor the Charter Group, but, it is merely a matter of having members of our group represent us in the city council or the city and county government. It is a known fact, that neither the Republican Party nor the Charter Group can get the majority of their candidates in office without the support of Negro voters, and this is a fact which I am attempting to get the Negro to see. Let us discard both the Republican Party and the Charter Group, and select our candidates, and vote for them. We learned through reliable sources that a party or parties called on the Chairman of the Republican Committee to ascertain whether the Republican Party was going to endorse Hon. A. Lee Besty as one of its candidates to run for the city council next fall, but said parties were not given a reply in this direction. However, many Negroes are under the impression that because Mr. Besty has been so active in the Republican Party, and was appointed by said party as Assistant United States District Attorney, and filled said capacity with due credit, that the Republican Party should and will endorse him. This is the danger: Mr. Besty performed his Department of Taxa Finance Sta ALBANY, June 16.—The names of 31,984 corporations in this state have already been compiled and placed on the list of concerns liable to be disbursed by proclamation under a new state law, according to officials of the state department of taxation and finance. Delilquent companies, the names of which begin with the letter "A", number 6,253 and of those 710 begin with the word "American". Under letter "B" there are 5,899 such TARIAL DSchool St. N.Y.C. CIVIL SERVICE COUNCERS CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA chief, a. bishop, bishop, warden, recorder, bishop, bishop. Henry William G. Cobb was the great speaker, Mr. Blake, preacher of the Navy State Bank, now to be created in Cincinnati, reported to his hearters, that they had recently elected all officials of the said bank; and that our own president, Sir William Ware, had, before his death, been a minister in institution. This bit of information was received by prolonged and loud applause by the entire audience. At this juncture the front page of the Negro World, which carries the message of our chieftian, was read by the executive secretary, Miss Laura Jarrett, after which "God Bless Our President" was sung, with much feeling and vim. At this time the chairman presented Hon. Edward Smith, the Negro aviator and parachute jumper. Mr. Smith explained thoroughly the safety of aviation, and made a very strong appeal to the members of the younger set to take up same. Dr. W.; W. Denner, of Sharon, Pennsylvania; the principal speaker of the day, was presented last. He chose for his name "The Hour Has Come." Dr. Denner treated this subject admirably to the satisfaction of all present. He ardently urged each member and will wisher of the organization to redouble their cooperative effort in assisting to keep the organization together, and a recognized entity in the world; in order that the larger program for the ultimate redemption and restoration of our motherland Africa, might be speedily realized. Dr. Denner made a great and lasting impression upon him, and he commended. We are hoping that the time is not far distant when we will be graced with his presence again. We don't break into print often. In fact, the Negro World seldom carries any news of the Cincinnati division; but, we want the world to know, that the lack of news does not mean a lack of activity. duty well as an officer, hence, they are affraid, that if he is elected he will play a greater part. Therefore, they do not intend to leave, any loopholes on their part. Hence, the danger for Negroes to observe in, to not be misled by the Republican Party; nor the Negroes to support one or two Negroes or whatever number is endorsed for the city council. It will not be difficult, I am confident, for us to elect two men to the city council. Now is the time for us to come together on this issue, and have Hon. A. Loe, Searcy, Hon. George W. B. Conrad, and John. Frank A. E. Halt meet all Negro voters in a Conference to be called Thursday evening, at 8 p.m. July 11, 1928, at Liberty Hall, 330 George St., all churches, organizations, lodges, societies, clubs, etc. are urged to send a representative. We further want it understood and made plain, that this is not the U. N. I. A. right, but it is every Negro sight in the city of Cincinnati who would realize that this is an issue that affects the race as a whole in Cincinnati, and not any particular group or Organization. Therefore, Negress "let us put it over" as this is a splendid opportunity in which we can demonstrate our intelligence and Political strength in the city of Cincinnati.

The remainder of the list completed to date shows 2,747 under D, "S,142 under E," 5,270 under "F" and 3,806 under "G." A large group of workers are preparing the list of delinquent corporations, and to prepare this the list of corporations now exist in this state, arranged alphabetically, is being thoroughly checked to find concerns not fitting an annual franchise tax return during the period of five consecutive years preceding this month. The list of such establishments not sting returns during this period is to be given the secretary of state on June 29, and to be directed by the law to make a population survey to those corporations, including them dissolved and their chairman furnished. This proclamation is to be published in the December issue of the law annual publication. For a complete information on the history of the law TRADITIONAL CHRISTIANITY In India today, almost in Java Cult among the Hindu Indian while the members are what we would call Christian bodies they belong Christ on their肩膀! The people, however just insulted when called Christians. They firmly believe in Christ's pastures they are proud of him to be present, hold that he was an idolist. So there, Christ was and still is, the greatest teacher of all them. They refuse to accept the Christian Religion (so-called) as a Christian of this new Cult a Christian and he know it. However, you call any one is hurt to the core; but tell him that he is a Christian man, and you honour him. You think that there is no difference between a Christian man and a Christian? In the writer's opinion, a Christian (one not right with him) is not a Christian, he is neither a Jew nor a gentle; on the other hand a Christian man or woman is one who not only accepts Christ as a Sayious, but lives the Christ life. To the average Christian, the Christian man is a gentle or unbeliever. For the benefit of those who do not know who is a gentle, please note. The Jews believe that anyone who is not a believer in Judaism is a gentle (Christians do not believe in the Jewish faith), Christians hold that people who will not believe in Christ (Christianity), are, either Jewes or gentiles. Hence, a true Jew may be a gentle, and a Christian is a gentle to a Jew. However, no Christian is gentle to the Jews do so. The fact that you are not a gentle, it is clear that there should be something more in a Christian. Now then, Christianity is something, its real, helpful and progressive. "Those who stand under its banner" must live the life, not in theory, but practice. Christianity-as we know it today is not that for which Jesus 'Christ' stood nineteen hundred years ago. Were Christ's teachings to be forced upon us in the form and theme as the Master did preach, every so-called Christian would fight with the sword, would fight such liberal teachings; men who presume to be Christians would in open combat fight, who knows, perhaps with the sword, the sponsors of the identical doctrines which they so doggedly profess to make sacrifices to give to the world. Christ in his activities made kings sleepless; many a ruler did everything in their power to trick him; he could not be bought, either with high positions, scarlet women or gold. Few men have been offered more and accepted less than Christ. King Herod Antapas, Christ's arch enemy, would have given anything to have Christ stop his demand "Down with high taxes." Men and women, in those days whenver they visited the Tax official, with a few exceptions ever game away with more than the clothes they wore their only possessions, and if they had nothing to pay, their expenses (fare) home, they were obliged to sleep in the open while I have been reading your paper for the past few months and I want to say that, it is truly the World's Greatest Weekly. I am capably interested in the cartoons and the editorials. I have a suggestion to make in regard to the cartoons which appear on the front page. It is to make this suggestion that I am writing this letter. For ever so long these pen drawings have been dealing with the way the U. S. Government has been treating its dark-skinned citizenship, and all of them border on a plea for justice and other things which the American white man has no intention of accepting. We have found that pieced is useless—why continue? Why don't we use some of those pleas to make our own people hear us? Why should we respect the white man to give us the many things we demand when it would make us his knowledge equal? Even so ask for these things is absurd. We must organize and organize quickly. In union there is strength. Our people must be shown that this begging, process is quite useless. We must become a force—a power. We must show by our actions that we mean business. We must not try to undermine the white man's government, but we must form one of our own. You say that there cannot be a government with a white man, but I say that there can be a strong union of the black race because we are so different from the white man. We are capable of doing great things. It is because of the above reasons that I would like to see a change in the front page cartoons. Let your cartoonist show the picture of a group of laborers working down through the ages with a white man pointing to, the work that is to be done. Ask the question, "Why is this so?" Your cartoonist may take a thinking about that great kingdom under Jesus Christophe. We accomplished great things then. With experience, we can do still greater things. I am not passing Marous Carvaux. I don't care who takes upon himself the responsibility, but I do know that our people will follow him. We are working with the white man. woman, and if by this wife a little wife is getting home, the public Clerk must immediately the streets county and the street home, and may see who had been disposed could take care and you who returned a few days later were unplugged to seek another abode. Furthermore, all lands had longed to the government, and no man except those of the mobility could own a home to hold a loan or must in short, the whole government was handled as a plantation. And the young part of it, whatever the head of a family was called to Jerusalem to be taken, could only be held by family and belongings, leaving his house empty. If a man had an attractive daughter who pleased a miler, and her father refused to give her to him, the father would be taxed so heavily that his women would be taken as slaves. How utterly barren must have been the lives of such people! Christ did not care about Herod's gold; what he wanted was to see those poor souls enjoying his father's kingdom on earth. He stood for the rights of the masses, his brain child "Christianity" one and will save the poor people, of the world. It has passed through many changes, and, no doubt, such changes were made so that the "underdogs" may always stay under. If we are to accept the Christ faith, we must have it in its pure, state, free from all paddings and cut-outs. We cannot honestly be Christians while doing the very things contrary to Christianity. No wonder, Gandhi, in replying to an American Missionary minister's question, "What we should do to naturalize christianity in India," replied, "I would suggest four things: First, that you Christians, missionaries, and all should begin to live more like Jesus; second, that you practice your religion with others; third, that you make love your working force; for love is central in Christianity; and fourth, that you study the non-Christian faiths more sympathetically in order to find any good in them and that you might have a more sympathetic approach to the people." Gandhi, India's strong man has the right idea about "practical Christianity" and the writer does feel that the "I. M. E. Church," and other organizations working along the practical routes are doing the Master's work as if he were here in person. The U. N. J. A. inits wide scope is fostering the major part of Christology, and at the coming international Convention, those who are fortunate to attend, should see to it that under No. 10. The formulating of plans to unity the religious beliefs and practices, of the entire Negro church. That resolutions be made for organizing an organization in church. The Jew is a man among men when it comes to business, yet his church has never been and will never be overlooked. Demand a church for the Negro, of the Negro and by the Negro. The Negro must be known by his faith, not his color. ing! Get together! That is my plea. All down through the history of the various nations we find that they we done what they did, not under some one else's government, but their own. Why do we sleep forever? What is there so different about us that we think we must forever be a subject race? Why do we beg to take part in a government which is obviously not for us? Must we always beools who approach the Nordics with a grim, hoping that they will throw us a crust from their table? It is time that we realised, that ever plan, such as is depicted in the cartoon, be given with a self-satisfied smile from a brother. He knows that he lives in the begging state and so long as we remain there he knows how to handle us. With promises! And we take them and spend money in cheating their president so that he may give us more promises! Must we forever be duped? If the Nordics really wanted to give us these things they would not have waited 60 years to do so. Therefore I say once again: Take a new attitude, or you will forever continue to be a people without a country, without a government, and all because we lack union. May I see this in the column under "What the People Say"? I would like my people to see, read and think about it. PRINCESS NEFERTARI New Brunswick, N. J.

We must put effort to our purpose to bring them out—answered. When the Scota under Bruce, not the English hosts at Bannockburn, they prayed, and their prayer was answered; but it was not prayer like as many of our Negro people are accustomed to doing. When the Scota hall knelt to prayer they rose to battle, and history tells us that on that historic day thirty thousand determined Scotmen defeated one hundred thousand Englishmen, who were encroaching upon the home of their fathers. We feel that the time has come for plain speaking to our fellow Negroes; and to make ourselves more readily understood, we ask the permission of the editors and publishers of the "Nautilus" to quote this bit of truth to the race of Negroes: "There is no God upon some star, Or far-off world that governs men. God is no autocrat so far As that beyond a mortal's ken. My spirit would grow crushed and faint. Neath so despotic a decree; And so the God most preachers paint. Could never be the God for me. How could a God in yonder skies; This throbbing heart in me control? The only God I recognize. Is that which dwells in my own soul Here he hath dwelt since worlds-began. Unheeded and unloved, alas!

THE DAILY WORKER ATTACKS GARVEY AND THE U.N.I.A. It was rather surprising a few days ago to read an article in "The Daily Worker," the organ of the Communist Party, attacking Marcus Garvey, and predicting a hot and galling fight in the Sixth International Convention between factions of the U. N. J. A. The situation is exceedingly painful in view of the fact that we had given credit to the editors of The Daily Worker "for good, common, horse-sense, sense of fair-play, and a devotion to truth." But the vision fades. One has only to read through the vicious article to note the spirit and the hidden hand of Jacob. We do not intend to belittle our sense of dignity and honor to engage in a controversy with those whose acts prove they are not foemen worthy of our steel, and who do not care a hang for truth. People who live in glass houses should never throw stones. The Daily Worker had better look to its own interests. We know that they have troubles of their own, without trying to tackle our troubles. Therefore we have not time to waste with gasters and spouters. We live and work for the uplift of the Negro, and the redemption of Africa; and we are here saying to the Communist Party that if Africa is to be redeemed it will be, and must be done by Africans, and by Africans alone. We will not be ungrateful to our friends; but if any friend wants us to pull their chestsins from the fire to our hurt, then we have reached the parting of the way. Son, Adies!

XXV. NEW YORK, SATURDAY JULY 20, 1929 No. 24 AS CONVENTION LOOMS We are standing today on a spot from whence we are able to look as from an eminence, and view the coming and going of events that will mar or make us. There looms up among the shadows of the things that are forecasting their coming, the greatest convention in the history of the Negro Peoples of the World. Negroes of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, under the leadership of that illustrious son of Africa, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, pin their hopes upon the results of the decisions made at that convention; for it is expected that from-out of the discussions and deliberations at that convention there will come a definite and clean cut program, and a common understanding, not only among the members of the great U. N. I. A., but among the Negroes of the world; so that there will henceforth be one common purpose and one common movement towards the realization of the dream which, even the most aloof, the most cowardly, skeptical, and the bitterest enemies of Marcus Garvey hope for in secret, the coming of the day when this race of Negroes, freed from every form of thraldom, and serfdom, and oppression, shall emerge victorious upon the plains of the fatherland. Africa. Because of this desire on the part of the Negroes all over the world, not mattering who they be, or how they seem to be outspoken in their antagonism to the U. N. I. A., we are feeling great emotions rising up in our hearts, we are seeing bright and stirring visions, and we are hearing the voice of Infinity speaking to us out of the Great Unseen, bidding us go forward to the conquest, to the victory we so earnestly desire; and which we are willing to sacrifice everything for, even life itself, that Africa might be free. Great and Invisible forces pervade the fathomless ether around us. Infinite and vast silences charge our being with a sterner hope and a deeper desire for the realization of the dream of our fathers, the dream which we have taken up in our daily lives; and now every force in theiverse calls to the Negro Peoples of the world, saying in unmistakable Africa Must Be Free. We catch new grains of a fairer We hear new music to charm our feet and stir our hearts as we forth under the skies in this Twentieth Century day, to the stirring of the clans, to the greatest of conclaves, the greatest in importance to any race of people, since the world began. Never before in the history of humanity did any convention; or any other kind of gathering of humans mean so much to so large a number of earth's mortals. This convention will decide the destiny of a race. It will be a decision given to the world, telling whether the Negroes themselves believe that they are worthy to live, fit to survive, or whether we are afraid to die for that which we feel is needful, more needful than the very life itself. Not by any chance must we falter in making our demands known to humanity, during and after this great convention; and we shall not fail to make that great decision. We Negroes realize that on account of the decisions that we shall be called upon to make during the next few weeks some of us will have to pass through the Valley of the Shadow of Death; some of us will be called upon to make the supremest sacrifice that man can ever be called upon to make. We realize that there are going to be stern and trying days ahead. We feel certain that the hand of the oppressor might tide to tighten. We know that the enemies of Negro-Progress will be marshalling their forces to thwart the success of our undertaking. But let all these dire contingencies come; they will find the Negroes ready; for as we have often said before: "How can man die better, than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods?" Therefore as the shadow of the great convention looms before our mental vision, we cross our hearts, in Irish fashion, and say forward. Negroes, forward to victory. Forward to the realization of your dreams. There is dawning the day for which we have longed, when the stern strong soul of the Negro will again be put to the test, when he will again bestir himself, after the long hull of the centuries; and shall again chart the way to Negro greatness and Negro manhood. Negro courage, Negro devotion, Negro industries, Negro commerce. Negro achievements in every line of human endeavor, and to enlighten again the skies of the new era with a glory greater than the glory that was Carthage. THE ANSWER TO OUR PRAYERS So much has been spoken and written about Negroes and their prayers, and so many of the writers and speakers have given expression to the belief that the ills to which the Negro is subject are due largely to the fact that the Negro prays too much, that being Negro, we are impelled to say something too. Our observation has demonstrated to us the fact that "Man is the answer to his own prayers." That is, man being the controller of his own destiny, must first know what he wants, what he wants to be, what he wants to do, and then having calmed his soul by prayer, in communion with the Great Unseen force of the Universe, step to bring to pass a realization of his dreams and his prayers. Observation has further revealed to us the fact, as also it has been revealed to thousands of other wide-awake sons and daughters of Ham, that the trouble with the Negro is not that he prays too much, but that it must cases out of teh, when he says he is praying, he doesn't know what he is praying for. In the majority of cases we go through a series of meaningful expressions, hypocritical largely, and then try to inside Nature and Nature's God" for not giving the desires of his heart; when all the time he has the power within him, to make that dream reality, to answer his own prayer. When we want to fell a tree we will upon God for strength to master that tree, then we shoulder our own back at the spot of that tree; and continued cutting results in the fall of that tree. So it is with everything in life, we must tackle Negroes comes to a realization of the standing that God is the power within us, especially in Georgia; lynching will make it cease, instead of sitting work a miracle for him, when he already is needs. It takes hold of the Negro, as it is our will awaken one morning to find that count Negro as his detractors call him servitude and its kindred limitations. SCOTS at BANNOCKBURN, will be careful in view of the fact that we had the Daily Worker "for good, common, and a devotion to truth. But this and through the vicious article to note Jacob. sense of dignity and honor to engage acts prove they are not foemen worthy a hang for truth. Should never throw stones. The Daily interests.

On Tuesday evening the Commencement exegesse were graced with the presence of Hon. E. B. Knox, chairman, and J. A. Craglen, secretary of the Board of rustees. Mr. Knox was unable to speak at length on account of throat trouble. However his remarks were timely. Mr. Craiglen, in his address, charged the graduates very forebly to be aware of the dangers they faced. Mr. Johnie Mee Bryant, the Valedictorian, made a wonderful impression upon the audience as she delivered the address. Miss-Gregory Ann Dicke sang the well known melody "Deep River." Miss Jla Purdy was the pianist for the evening. The diplomas and certificates were presented by President Robinson. Mr. H.

We have flow reached the point that if we are to save, the race we must lay a foundation to build upon that will make us a race worthy of respect. We must get something of our own; not to continue to live by what the other races have laid for us, but we must lay our own foundation to build on. And we need at this time real men and women—thinking men and women to carry on. We want Africa free so we can live like people. We have been treated worse than any race of people and it is time for it to be stopped. God did not intend for the black race to be slaves always; but it is up to us if we are satisfied with our conditions then God will have nothing to do with us. Because He gave us what He gave, all other races, and if we don't save ourselves it is up to us, not to God. I thank God that some of us have begun to think of racial uplift. We, the black women must go side by side with our black men if we are to save the race. For 400 years the black women have been treated like dogs. We must start to work now for a pure race if we want to gain respect from other races of people. The white race is watching us. They know when we are on the right track. They know that as long as black men are satisfied with them to do away with the purity of the black race, then they will say they don't know what it takes to build a nation. Every race that has founded a Government that stands for something has done it by purity. And that is what we have to do, and we must organize to fight against impurity. MRS. GRACIDE WILKINSON Detroit, Mich. To the Editor of the Nerro World: To the Editor of the Negro World: Permit me a little space in your valuable paper, to say a few words of congratulation to the new man to the front, in person of R. T. Brown, for his article of June 22nd "Shoulder Arms." Any Negro who has read such an article has to confess that indeed the sleeping Negro has availanced to tell the world that he is the greatest factor to be dealt with as far as Africa is concerned. Reading, such an article given those of us who are in the ranks of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, more determination to attack closer to the ranks; and those who are not yet in the ranks, are compelled to stop and murder why they are not units in the ranks. We Negroes the world over need not be afraid to die, for it is better to die in the ranks of the N. U. N. A. fighting for that liberty that would make our children breathe freely, than to live to watch their sufferings under the feet of injustice. Let us all hope that the great editor will give us "each weak such inspiration of thoughts so that we might ever have that energetic force to "Shoulder Arms," to clear the way to Africa's redemption. Yours ever for the cause Afric. ALFRED RAWLINS. Banes, Oriente, Cuba. Please permit me space in your valuable paper, to express a few words if befid of U. N. I. A. What use will the Redemption of Africa be to us without unity and love. We are working for a free and redeemed Africa; but we need the cooperation of these two virtues: unity and love. If you study the Universal Negro Improvement Association carefully, you will find that the foundation is love. The Hue. Marcus Garvey has suffered greatly for his race, and all through love.

Bermudian Cricket Stars Due Here On August 5th Bermudian Cricket Stars Due Here On August 5th The greatest aggregation of cricket luminaries from the Bermudians will be in our midst August 5th. The islands have been literally combed for defenders to uphold the cricket tradition of these beautiful isles. The playing ensemble will embark on the third of August, arriving on our shores August 5th. This team will be strong in all departments. Their batting prowess is well known. Repeated visits here have acquainted the fans with their swallowing blades. They go after the ball in a manner to delight the heart of the most exacting spectator. Thrilling duels with our leading clubs are sure to be enacted. Can we forget that memorable battle, year before last, Bermudians vs. West Indian C. C. For exciting, tense moments, missed heartbeats, it can only be equated by the same dogged spirit, bulldog grit that enabled the champion West Indian C. C, to hold the Overseas West Indians that visited us last year, to a narrow margin victory. It was steel against steel, on both occasions. Great games, played by a band of earnest fighting men. The decision, in both instances, was in doubt up to the last moment of play. This year the Bermudian line-up has been augmented by a few additional stars who have never appeared before the critical gaze of New York's satiated cricket appetite. It is just such an attraction that is needed. The fans are tired of the repetition of matches such as All Barbados vs. the West, West Indians vs. St. Kitts, etc., ad nauseum. Cricket seems to be dying a lingering death. The wrong men have been at the head of the syndicates, supplying the jaded appetites of New York's sporting fraternity with cricket fodder. Too much self was injected. These avaricious gentlemen can clap themselves on the back and compliment each other on their success—in practically killing the interest of those devoted to the game. It is with genuine deep feeling, with open arms, we welcome the advent of the Bermuda Sporting Club, sponsor of the witting Bermudian cricket combine. At last cricket will be handled in the right manner. We have waited so long. This body is a group of sportsmen, real sportsmen, bonn fide sportsmen, not rapacious, self-centered Shylocks like their predecessors. "The line-up of the invading cricket aggregation is as follows: From Somerset, the Hunte brothers, Amon, Alma and Eric, Philpot and Simons. From Hamilton, Sammy Tucker and E. Gilbert. From St. Georges, Watson and Steede. Steede is reputed to be the premier trudder of the Bermudas. On the different occasions the pick of New York cricket eleven toured Bermuda, he gave our boys a world of trouble. "This un is good"—that's what the beat of our players say of him. We'll see.

O., New York City I HOOSE of you who were unable to go over to Ebbets Field last Wednesday evening to witness the gala attractions that was staged there, sure did miss something. Not to be able to deflect back over your memory, and draw a mental moying picture of Kid Chocolate, paying his fistic respects to Ignacio Fernandez, surely you will have something worthy of missing from your storehouse of memories. The Kid put up the best fight of his career. Talk about the exhibition, the original Joe Gans use to put up, I want to say, I have never seen a better presentation of boxing skill, mixed with effective punching and gameness, ever before. And as much as I love the game, to have missed this rare treat and to have been forced to listen to some one tell me about it would have made me fall out; The Kid entered the ring full of confidence, smiling at the pressmen and those that would call to him. Undoubtedly he was in the best of fighting form. It is evident that taking him out in the country to do his training was the wisest thing that could have been done. Fresh as a cucumber he struts out to the center of the ring to receive the referees' instructions, showing no cares or worries at all. This little ceremony over, back to his corner, he shed his bathrobe, does an up and down on the ropes, shakes hands with his manager, bends his head and makes the sign of the cross. These corner formalities over, the bell is sounded, to start another epic in the history of prize fights. No sooner had they met in the center of the ring and shaken hands, than Chocolate started shooting his left jab with the precision of a piston rod; never missing its marks. Every second or two Ignacio's head was sent back. About the middle of this round the Kid sent over a right cross to the Philippine's jaw, that stopped him right dead in his tracks; but this fellow from the Fiji Islands is such a tough bird that all he did was to shake off the effects of this punch that would have split any other featherweight in the business today, and continued to bore in. The Kid used him for a punching bag for the rest of the nine rounds. All this Hawaiian had was a wild left swing; But Chocolate caught this in the air with his glove, thus rendering his opponent helpless without his main artillery. Oh, boys, I could go on and on telling you of the exciting moments that were present during this battle of the roped arena. When Chocolate's hand was raised at the end of the tenth round, acclaiming him the winner, the crowd went wild. Everybody was registering their approval for his wonderful exhibition against an opponent that was considered to render him non-combatant. BRING on Al Singer or Routin. I think Chocolate in just dying to meet either of them. As a drawing card the Kid has them all skinned; and should be given the biggest end in any combat. We cannot close our column without paying our respects to Black Bill, for the stand up fight he made against Phil Tobias. Finally this shows that Bill's present manager has the right idea.

O., New York City Text by BEN DAVIS, JR. Drawn by A. W. RENNEGARBE Jack Johnson, world's former heavyweight champion, appears to be still in the best of condition. He gave a two-round exhibition at the Orangeburg training camp with Johnny Urban of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, who is considered to be a very good fighter. He is young and strong, but Jack pulled the same trick on him that he did on James Jefferies at Reno, when he fought him for the Heretofore Bill resorted to ashy boxing. He was a sensation at it. The stunts he used to pull on the ropes, no other one could attempt. He used to bewilder all of his opponents, but fancy stuff in the ring is pass to today; and making Bill stand up and fight will get him way up. Lots of fight fans' thought that Bill could not punch. Well, he shattered all their thoughts last. Wednesday evening for he dropped Tobias about five times. I was very much pleased with his work and he keeps he it up. As long as he listens to his manager, who, by the way, is Chocolate's manager also, he will surely accomplish his ambition. Bring on Izzy Schwartz. Where did the corporal go? I thought that Joss McMahon had this match served up. What happened Jess? Did Izzy grab a slip-out? If he did force him to it. What Bill's manager should do, is to place a challenge with the boxing commission. This probably will make Mr. Schwartz toe the line. SAY, fellows, do you know this boy, Armando Santiago? No, well whenever you see his name on a card make it your business to go and see him. I learnt that he grew up in the "sixteens" and is only a young fellow. Ask me if he can punch and I'll say can a "Korse fly." He met one, Tony Pelligino, in the semi-normal to the Kid Chocolate-Fernandez bout: and believe me Armando must have had a date of heavy pressure; for he tore into Tony just like he was about to eat a dish of spaghetti; and with the third punch sent him down for a count of six. He managed to pull himself up for all the good it did him, for he was not up three seconds before he was sitting down on the canvases stunned. This was indeed quick work for Santiago, for whom I wish all the luck in the world. The fireworks all over, the boys from up Harlingen way. championship, that of catching Urban's right arm in the air while attempting to land one on Jack's jaw, and forcing his arm, behind his back, demonstrating that he still possesses bull-like strength. Everybody was well pleased with this marvel and stated that although Jack is about fifty-two years old, they were inclined to believe he could give any of the present crop of heavyweights a good fight. and other parts Afric, left the park feeling very good; all their boys had turned the tables once again. The ride back home, is a little longer from the field than from the Queensboro Stadium; but people do not mind the journey when they are satisfied. THE boys in Harlem have long been waiting to see their idol and knock-out artist, Lou Williams, in action. Lou has had quite a few fighters lately, but they were all so far off, that we poor boys who live in upper Manhattan could not make the grade. But, now that he is going to appear at Ebbsfelt field next Wednesday evening, July 17th, I know we will be southbound. Remember two weeks ago I picked Williams as the outstanding light heavyweight. I did this on past performances as it has not taken him more than three rounds to put the anore on an opponent since he has been fighting in the east, and they do not feed him setups either. Show me the colored boys that get easy marks and I'll show you the ears of the Shark that swallowed that Jew. Mr. James McMahon will you please give us a little of George Godfrey.

Marvelous Love Story Of A Black Queen How the Dark, Comely Queen of Sheba Captivated King Solomon by Her Compelling Beauty and Intelligence. It was Love at First Sight, Then a Life of Mutual Devotion that Defied Destruction By J. A. ROGERS "I am black but comely. Oh ye daughters of Jerusalem As the tents of Kedar, As the curtains of Solomon, Look not upon me because I am black Because the sun that scorched me." (Song of Solomon) OUT of the mists of three thousand years, there has come down to us this most beautiful love story of the ancients—how the black queen of a mighty empire attracted by the fame and wisdom of a great Judean monarch, made a long journey to see him, and how each fall deeply in love with the other at first sight. Here is the story as it is told in the Kebar Nagast. The Kebar Nagast, or the Glory of Kings, is the chronicle of the reign of centuries of Ethiopian Kings prior to the Queen of Queen Abyssin, it dates back to the dimest antiquity, and is written in the original Ethiopian, which is the mother of our alphabet. During the reign of Queen Victoria, an English expedition under Lord Napier invaded Abyssinia, defeated the king, Theodore, and took the Kebar Nagast to England, where it was placed in the British Museum. In 1872 while a British admiral was visiting the Emperor Menelik II, the admiral, in part asked Menelik whether he would like him to take any message to Queen Victoria. On this the Empress Taitu, consort of Menelik, said: "Yes, say to her that her soldiers have taken from us a Book that we hold most dear—a Book necessary to the orderly governing of our kingdom—the Book of the Queen of Sheba, of Solomon, and their son, the Emperor Menelik I, Our Book! I pray to God that she returns it." The message was delivered, and the Kebar Nagast, in due time, was returned to its old place in the Ethiopian archives. On it is now the following inscription: "Returned by the British Museum, Dec. 14, 1872." It might also be noted that the word "Sheba" is the ancient name of Abyssinia. The Sheblans, or Shebans, did not call themselves Ethiopians. That word was coloned by the Greeks and meant the "Land of the Blacks, or Burnt Men." The Sebans, were descendants of Seba, son of Cush, and grandson of Ham. Seba founded the Seban Empire some 4,000 years before the Queen of Sheba. Another grandson of Ham, Nimrod, "the mighty hunter before the Lord," founded the great Assyrian Empire (Gen. 10, 6-10). The descendants of Cush who went into Africa became blackened by the sun, while those who remained in Asia retained their yellow complexions. Some two thousand years later the Sebans, or Ethiopians, extended their power into Asia, conquering the land of the Asiatic Cushites. It is not known just how far their empire extended, but this fact is certain: the Ethiopia or Abyssinians ruled in Arabia until 570 A. D.

Y. nely Queen of Sheba Solomon by Her Com- d Intelligence. It was Then a Life of Mutual d Destruction "Makeda, Solomon now elevated to posi- tion of favorite Queen." when they were driven out by Mahomet. The Ethiopians enjoyed tremendous prestige. More than once they were masters of Egypt, and they made a treaty with the Roman Emperor, Justinian. Homer speaks of them as the wisest of men, the most distant, and the most favored of the gods. Ethiopia was regarded as the ancient Eden by the Greeks. At the period with which we are about to deal, the Sebuns, or Ethiopians were the most powerful people in what is now known as the Near-East, perhaps in the world. The Story The following is a digest of the translation from the Kebar Nagast by Hugues Le Roux, noted French scholar. To this is added parts of the Arabian version. At the time that the story opens, Solomon, son of David, was filling the East with the glory of his name. He was building the Temple and had sent the messengers to all lands inviting the merchants to come to Jerusalem with their caravans in order that he might buy of them. He was particularly anxious to get in touch with a famed Ethiopian merchant named Tamarin, and he sent for him Solomon wanted the precious woods, the marble, and most of all, the red gold of Ethiopia. In due time, Tamarin arrived and from the first was so fascinated by Solomon that after disposing of his wares, he lingered on at Jerusalem. But at last he had to return in order BE A POWER ON EARTH BE A POWER ON EARTH just what you need—for real luck—it that when one carries a loadstone, Rabbit's foot or wears a Chinese luck ring and burns Zandoraa Power cause, they always possess money, which is power—then everything one desires comes to them, so says the great minds of the East—secure luck outfalls and be a man. # to give his queen the money he had for her. On his departure Solomon opened his treasure house and gave Tamarin rich presents for the Queen of Sheba. Once more in Ethiopia, Tamarin was received in the audience chamber of the Queen, and with all her courtiers assembled, he told of the wonders and splendor of Jerusalem. But his chief praise was centered on Solomon. "When he speaks, Your Majesty," and Tamarin, "it is with gentleness and humility. He pardons these who commit wrong; the wisdom and fear of God governs his house and his kingdom; proverbs are in his mouth; his voice is as delicious as honey; his beauty excelled that of other men; and everything about him is surprising." Queen Makeda was extraordinarily impressed. Again and again she called Tamarin to tell her about Solomon, and as often Tamarin had to tell about the wonderful temple Solomon was building; how he received daily between 700 and 800 merchants; and how all that he did was marked with wisdom and knowledge. At last Makeda unable to restrain her curiosity, decided that she would go to Jerusalem herself. Calling her people together she said: "I go in search of knowledge and wisdom. My heart forces me to go; it is wounded by love of wisdom, which is greater than all the treasures of the earth." Accordingly she assembled one of 100 the greatest caravans of all time. In it were 787 asses, mules and camel loaded with some of the choicest treasures of her empire—gold and silver, precious stones, amber, rare woods, perfumes and myrrh. Solomon, hearing of her visit, had prepared a special apartment for her reception. It was of crystal from the floor to the ceiling. Under the flooring-ran a stream of water. Solomon had heard a certain story about Queen Maltaed and this was a ruse to discover if it was true. He had heard that one of her legs resembled that of a jackass and was covered with hair. Finally, Makeda with all her train arrived and was conducted into the apartment. Thinking she was stepping into water, she lifted her dress, but King Solomon's attention was so held by the beauty of her face and the magnificence of her apparel that he forgot to look at her legs. The fact is that Makeda had been bitten by a jackal on her leg in her youth and limped a little, which had given rise to the tale. Makeda had come prepared to admire but what she saw was so vastly greater that she was overwhelmed. The marvelous Temple, not then completed, the gardens of the palace; the arsenals. Never had she seen anything the like of it. "Your Majesty," she said, "the half has not been told." Solomon, on his side, too, was not the less impressed. The size of the caravan. The value of the presents Makeda had brought him. "She gave the king, 120 talents of gold, and of spices very great store and precious stones; there came no more such abundance of spices as these which the Queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon."—I Kings, 10:10. The 120 talents of gold alone was worth $3,680,000—a vastly greater sum in those days. * Truly a royal present! What must be the wealth and power of a Queen who could make such a gift! "What is this I beheld? Is it a vision or a living creature?" Sotaba had built for Makeda a throne covered with carpets of silk, and being with frigates of gold, silver, pearls and diamonds. She sat on this throne by his side as he delivered judgment, and she marvelled at his wisdom. He gave great banquets for her—the banqueting hall of which was no perfumed with myrrh, galbanum, and incense that one was almost already filled by the odor of them. She accompanied the king as he went about giving orders for the building of the Temple. She saw him give the measures to the workmen; she saw him balancing the instruments, commanding the carpenters, the marble-workers, the jewelers. She watched him as he taught the use of the angle and the curved line to his workmen. All passed by his word and his orders were as light in darkness. Queen Makeda Marvels The more she saw, the more she marvelled: "My Lord," said the enamored Queen, "you are happy because you are endowed with Wisdom and Knowledge. Would that I could remain here always if but as the humblest of thy workers so that I could hear your word and obey, you! "How happy I am when I inter-rogate you. How happy when you answer me! My heart is moved with pleasure; my soul is filled; my lips wish to utter noble thoughts; my feet no longer stumble; my whole being thrills with delight. "Your wisdom and goodness is beyond all measure. They are, excellence itself. Under your influence I place new values of Life; I see light in the darkness; the firefly in the garden reveals itself in a new light to me. I see a new beauty in the pearl; a new brilliance in the star of the morning in the midst of the constellation; in the ray of the moonlight, in the aurora. Blessed be the God who brought me here; blessed be Him who permitted your majestic mind to be revealed to me; blessed be the One who brought me to your house to hear your voice." And Solomon replied: "Beautiful Queen of the South, I am the happiest of men. Wisdom has been awakened in you for my happiness and yours. The wisdom with which you credit me I hold from God, alone. "Wisdom was already yours, for without knowing the God of Israel you resolved in your heart to come and visit me. You wish to become the humble servant of God. See, I save recared here the TABernacle of the Ark of the Covenant. I stand before it. I serve the Ark of the Goyenant of the God of Israel, which is Zion, the Holy, the Celestial. I am but the servitor of God. I exist but by His will. I was dust before he formed me in his image, and to dust I shall return. Displays Wisdom At that moment a wormman was passing. On his head was wood and on his neck, straw. His sandals hung from his lips and sweat poured down the length of his nude form, Solomon bade the man halt. Pointing to him, Solomon said: "Do you see any difference between this humble worker and myself? Am I not a man like him? Am I not made of dust the same as he and tomorrow shall I not be a worm even as he? "Are we not both the sons of Man? What hindered God from giving my glory to, this man and putting in this place? But at this hour this workman has more strength than I to accomplish his particular task, for God comes to the help of the Feeble as He sees fit." Bidding the man continue his work the king went on: "What, good are we if we do not obtain grace by practicing, good, on this earth? For though we wear magnificent clothing, eat delicious food, and clothes ourselves with perfumed garments we are already of the dead by our sin and corruption. Happy are those who repent and fear God." And Makeda replied: "What joy do your words give me! How like to the droppings of dew are they! Teach me, O teach me more. We of the South worship the Sun as our fathers have taught us, because we believe that: the Sun is the king of all gods. "But now I wish to worship no longer the Sun, but the creator of the Sun: The God of Israel. Lot the Ark of the Covenant be my guide and that of my descendants and that of the multitude who bow before my country forever." Sebastian Is captured But Solomon in all his wisdom was but Kippen. The only proximity of the humane Makese stared the map within him. But Kippen, good friend, told the king that according to Bethlehem law a queen could rule only as long as the ruler remained. At last came the eye of the city of his deputy. Sebastian was recruited in his deputy's service with the Queen your deputy from. He long in danger recruited by a slave.

ESSENTIAL THOUGHTS An individual whose time is being occupied with the routine of life needs some diversion in order to cope successfully with the duties which are still ahead. That being the case some form of recreation is absolutely necessary at intervals. Work though pleasant it may be has a tendency to exhaust both mind and body, and as every intelligent person is concerned with the span of life there can be no better solution for the renewal of body and mind than recreation. This does not mean rest. The thought implies the entering upon some kind of activity differing from the ordinary work to which one is accustomed. Many persons are always taking advantage of the opportunity to recuperate. Everyone should be able to find a selection for recreation from walking, sewing, music, reading, gardening, cycling, howing, horseriding, tennis, golf, sawing, cricket, chess, or any other form of indoor or outdoor sport which may have a special appeal to the individual taste. The nature of ones daily occupation must be fully taken into account. The change of air, the change of scene and the change of ideas are necessary essentials. The diversion should not be taken at random, it should be purposeful with a specific end in view, either in elevating the mind, or imparting strength to the body, restoration of usefulness or developing of the aestheticism.

Según el criterio de aristocracia racial que profesa Paul Morand, es posible que el mestizaje con indios y negros a que se entregaron los españoles en América fuera un error biológico, digno de ser casigado a perpetua dependencia, como quiere el ilustre vajor francés; pero el hecho es que España no dejo tras si, como otros pueblos colonizadores, graves antagonismos de raza que latín dificil una evolución pacifica y armónica del mundo, en América y en otros continentes. Por lo demas, mi sentimiento patriótico, por legitimo que lo juzgue Paul Morand, no tiene por qué resignarse al hecho consumado de la emancipación parcial de América, pues más de una ve he dicho, en la profia "Agonia Antillana", que en las luchas de la Independencia, de haber, vivido entonces y de pensar como hoy, hubiese tomado el partido de los americanos, como lo tomo hoy contra los dominadores. Ni me duche que España fuera arriada por otras colonizaciones, sino que no sean arriadas todas. Porque yo también como Morand, en la selección individual y colectiva, pero dentro de una libre organización y division del trabajo social e internacional, no como el parece querer, imponiendo un regimen semejista de trabajo sobre los hombres, los pueblos y las razas, con el pretexto de que son de Elase o color inferiores. Ante todo, por sentimiento de justicia y luego, también, por prevision, para evitar, si aún es, tiempo, que un dia las miradas amarillas y negras, en hordas libertas,omen venganza de los blancos, como hicieron los haltianos con los franceses a fines del siglo diez y ocho. Estudiando detenidamente la dirección de nuestra raza, notamos que cualquier individuo que escriba una carta a un períodoico, haga una manifestación con el objeto de ser publicada o adquiera una posición por medio de una influencia extraña, immediatamente se considera como un gran director y aventajandose de cierto grado de ignorancia de parte de nuestro pueblo, es aceptado incuestionablemente como tal. Esta clase de imposición es la causa del desconcierto entre nuestro elemento, por el hecho de no poscer un programa definitivo. Coino los avaros de todas las edades, se someten el programa de conveniencias, creando la piedra en el camino de cualquier movimiento progresista. Tal fue la misma clase de dirección que en aquella época y en aquella comunidad se opuso tenazmente a Cristo y a sus ideales. Los tal llamados sabios y doctores combatieron su filosofía y le calificaron de idiota y de intolerable. Ellos no podían ver la bondad ni la promisión de la doctrina que Cristo predicaba; sin embargo, después del transcurso de casi tres mil años, notamos que la misma clase de elemento se a convertido en patrocinadores y predicadores del cristianismo. Si hubieramos de bacer juicio critico sobre la inteligencia de aquel pueblo que existió en la época del Salvador, dariamos gran crédito y sobradá razón a aquella multitud que con gran atención y mayor revencia, escucho las prédicas de su filosofía divina. La masa común, el tal llamado pueblo ignorante que pudo interpretar el sermón en el Monte Sinaf, demostró mas sentido común y mayor inteligencia que aquellos sabios y doctores que lo répudiaban. A.la luz de la verdad, la filosofía del Cristo ha sido aceptada por el mundo intelectual, como la fuerza ética y moral mas prepotente en el reajuste de la sociedad humana.

Centenares de años hubieron de transcurrir para que los intelectuales se dieran cuenta de ello; pero la masa común se dió cuenta en breves momentos, y como una repetición de la historia, esa misma clase de intelectuales se oponen a otros movimientos reformistas, los cuales tienden a mejorar la condición del pueblo que sufre. No seria necesario enumerar uno tras otro eso movimientos pero hemos de hacer referencia a los ideales de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Rara Negra, los cuales una y otra vez han sido objeto de ataques por parte de los saptemistimó de la rasa quienes, como los de la doca de Cristo, han manifestado que su programa es una prueba irrealizable y sus adeptos la más ignoran.

Men's Hairdressing and Exchanged Opina Que No Existe La Superhididad Desde el punto de vista de ananacapación, catoy en la creencia de que ningún hombre blanco es lo suficientemente bueno para governor al hombre negro, y del mismo modo se mantiene mi opicion en cuanto a las demas razas y pueblos del orbe respecta. Nadia a la verdad se rienten justificado de que el pero, extrafio por cierto, es lo bastante buena para establecer reglas bon la exclusión de los derechos raciales de natividad. Cuando un pueblo llega, a tener deba comprensión de lo que desea y a tener conciencia de cuando deba ser libre; entonces cae pueblo viene a ser igual a los demás, dentro del alto concepto en que los hombres todos son llamados a dirigir sus propios asustimos de una manera directa y responsable. Es una verdad que economica y cientificamente ciettas razas con mas progresistas que otras; mas ello no implica superioridad. El que el anglo-sajón diga que es superior porque ha introducido submarinos para destruir vidas, o que el tefutón lo sea porque ha compuesto un gas liquido para sobrepujar al otros en el arte de la matanza, y que el negro sea considerado inferior porque no haya alcanzado adelanto en esta dirección, es como decirse uno mismo y por consiguiente a las razas asi atrasadas, que se acojan al precepto bibico "no mataras" tal cual fué el divino mandato que establece el estandarte moral del verdadado homíre. No existe superioridad en una raza que económicamente monopoliza y retiene todo lo que tiende al sostenimiento de la vida, causando así la desgraza de otras. El más alto propósito seria el de amar y el da compartir con los demás aquellos que la Naturaleza ha puesto en comun a la disposición del genero humano. En ese particular el africano sobrepasa en generosidad, porque da de comer a su somejante y comparte con el mismo el producto de su tierra. La idea de superioridad racial es cuestionable; sin embargo, tenemos que admitir quebajo el pinto de vista del hombre blanco, el se cree superior a los demás; más esa clase de superioridad es inhumana y peligrosa para que sea pernüentemente provechosa. Esa, tal llamada superioridad (fué alcanzada por otros pílebs anteriormente, y así lo fue por el nuestro cuidado nos orgulleciúnos con la maravillosa civilización en las riberas del Nilo.

June 16, AND—The New Orleans Tollway dated June 17, says collectively: "Add three, more men, two white men and one colored, to the long list of those who have saved lives on Lake Ponchartrain, that beautiful but temperamental water. Ogden McConnell and Junior Rafter of Spanish Fort, and Vance Ravens, colored, employee of a Spanish Fort restaurant, rescued a fisherman from plights near the lighthouses where he climbed after his boat foundered, and where was in imminent danger of drowning. They risked their own lives on the effort for it, seemed that no shifl could float in the turmell. We congratulated each of the three for this act of men." A YOUNG MAN'S NICHES A young man with health, a good mind, some education and the ability to direct his own energies systematically is richly equipped to conquer fortune. To him, a million dollars would be a handicap rather than an asset, for he would lack the spur of necessity to drive him up and on to personal achievement. To a man thus endowed, life has a rosy morning and hope rides with the sun! Miss Bantrye Brown, graduate of 1884, received two qualifications in the State Civil Service and work, yet for the Liberty Department of Albany, which she declined, and one for the State Education Board in New York City, which she accepted. Miss Brown is also No. 13 in the State college register list, which examination was taken in January of this year. Mrs. Madge V. Damotto was appointed as bookkeeper-stenographer for the real estate firm of L. R. Loklay. Mrs. Damotto is also number 13 on the list for clerk, grade 2 (with a knowledge of the addressograph), which examination was held by the Municipal Civil Service during March and April. Miss Inez Clough is staging and directing the play, "Waiting for the Bus," which is to be presented at the graduation exercises this year. Miss Clough also staged and directed the graduation playlet of June, 1928. She thinks that this play will be very fine. Students who have registered for the summer, course are Elizabeth Rhodes, Helen Valez, Allie McAndrews, Vivian Watson, George Branch and Fannye Johnson. On July 19 the New York Academy is again holding its annual summer students dance and chataquia for visitors to New York City. This is a regular reunion for students, where students from all parts of the country who are visiting in New York City meet each other. The graduation examinations are over, and the students are breathing a sigh of relief. Many have passed with honors, which will be seen by the large number of gold prizes to be awarded this year. The New York Academy is sponsoring a camp in the Bear Mountain section this year, which will be open every year hereafter. Don't fall to visit Camp Sweatika, on Lake Floratl.

Washington urged Negro farmers to organize and through his interest a publication known as the Negro Farmer was started and operated for more than three years. The pertinent observation of Mr. Charles E. Hall in last week's summary would have been unnecessary had Dr. Washington's advice been heeded. Twenty years ago, the organization would have given the Negro farmer some leverage to assure him some of the direct benefits of the $500,000,000 Revolving Fund made available by Congress in the Farm Relief Bill. Speaking in Atlanta last week, Secretary Hyde of the Department of Agriculture, said of the functions of the Farm Board: "The Board does not buy or sell. It has no right to engage in business. Of agriculture, to finance farmer-owned and farmer-controlled co-operative, which may buy, sell, process, or store farm commodities." Stephen Belt, writing in Commerce and Finance says: "It will be observed that the Farm Board cannot itself spend any of the money in the Revolving Fund. It can only loan the cooperative bodies organized by the farm over the 'stabilization corporations created by the co-operatives.' James P. Davis, founder of the National Federation of Negro Farmers, which was organized about a year ago, said in an interview this week: "Our organization is in the colored farmer's only hope. Every white farm organization in the nation is now engaged in a membership drive, and we are now recruiting Negro members. Negro farmers are not invited to the public meetings, usually held in the county court house. No Negro farmer has ever been a delegate to any of the meetings of the American Farm Bureau." BUSINESS—Dr. Robert R. Moton, President of the National Negro Business League, addressed a group of Negro ministers at Hampton last week. To commi- nate upon Negro business, Dr. Moton said: "Our success is along all lines, but there has been no 'howling' success in business. There have been bank failures, due not to dishonesty but to inexperience and lack of backing. The church must tie itself up with Negro business. Chain stores are a constant threat to the independent merchant. So going we must have co-operat- ion. We had better get some relief, into our self or out of ourselves." Roy Wilkens, columnist for the Kansas City Call, says in defense of the Negro press: "The Negro people who read Negro newspapers, who buy them with hard-cared money, who extort the advertisers in its pages there have made the Negro press.

A number of Negro newspapers are sharing in the national newspaper advertising campaign for Cremo cigare. Zita Louise Baker, a white newspaper woman, has been engaged by the Chicago Defender to write a series of articles on "What White Chicago Thinks of the Negro." Small grocery chains owned by individuals is an encouraging development of Negro business. C. O. Gibson operates three such stores in Philadelphia, and Thomas Hudson of Valdosta, Ga., owns Tour. The Portland (Ore.) Advocate reports a survey in that city to ascertain the amount of money spent by Negroes for gas, telephone service, and electricity. When completed, the report will also show the number of Negroes employed, by these public service companies. The Carolina Times, published in Durham, has asked the City Health Department to apply the sanitary regulations to a number of Greek restaurants which cater to Negro trade. Mrs. Sarah Rector Campbell, who before her marriage was known as the "richest colored girl in this world," has received a tax refund of $121,820 from the federal government. Because of her extensive oil holdings in that state, "Sarah Rector," was by legislative enactment some years ago given "white people's privileges" in Oklahoma. Such recognition is another way of saying that "money takes." In commenting upon our Weekly Economic Survey, The Negro-World calls upon the race to co-operate in creating "our own jobs." It says: "We are face to face with an era when large organizations are able to under-buy . . . under-sell the small man; and . . . Negro enterprise is to succeed it cannot afford to develop on mere race, sentiment, but must be able to offer to its prospective Negro customers as good, or better terms than those customers can secure elsewhere. . . . Let us therefore begin, not tomorrow, but TODAY, to marshal all of the forces outlined above, with the idea in mind of establishing and operating such business enterprises in the commercial and industrial fields that will be a credit to our intelligently directed efforts, and a source of remuneration and satisfaction to us, and furnish us with the avenues for the development of all our powers, to the lasting credit and profit of the race." INDUSTRY — President William Green of the American Federation of Labor in addressing a Negro audience in New York City on Sunday, June 30th, said that 100 out of 107 international unions were "denitively erased the color line." "The Federation" said he, "affords on the principle of no discrimination on account of color, race, religion or nationality. Should it ever abandon that principle it will perish." Commenting, The Amsterdam News says, "This should mean a new day for Negro labor in the United States. The workers have complained that the Negro workers did not stand with them against capitalism, expression. But the Negro, never got to the point of resisting capitalism, because he was too busy defending himself against white labor, which was shuttling him out of its union and bounding him out of the skilled trades. Naturally the Negro felt that capitalism was his best friend." In the thoumme, seventy-five Negro barbers in Memphis have organized by group of the Master Barber Union and fifty Negro tailors of Rebel Union, who joined the Touma Toura, Dressmakers and Cleaners Association.

Makea continued to equate the dinner with the wedding would give his word to the party. Solomon replied, "I give my word, on condition that you steal none of my treasure." Makea thought this a good jest. Why should she the pregnant woman on earth want to steal any of Solomon's treasure. Laughingly she gave her word to abide by the bargain. The king ordered the dinner served. Meats in abundance there, were served with a profusion of salt and spice washed down with wines and liquors. But no water. Raging with thirst Makeda stole away and seeing a spouting jet of water drank greedily of it. Solomon, arising, bid stealthily followed her, and combed up reminded her of her promise not to steal any of his treasure. "Why," laughed the Queen, "this is only water." "And is not water the greatest of my treasures?" retorted the king. And pushed by her love and her admiration for the king's artifice the Queen showed that she, too, was only a woman. Solomon at that time had 700 wives, all princesses, and 800 concubines. Among the wives were Nitocria, daughter of the king of Egypt; Sulamit, daughter of King Suman; Rachal, daughter of Hiram II, king of Sidon; and Emmah, daughter of Sidon and Emmah, daughter of Achhal, king of Ceylon, Makeda, he now elevated to the position of favorite queen to the discontentment of the others. Some of them began to reproach Makeda about the darkness of her skin, hence the famous passage: "I am black but comely, oh, ye daughters of Jerusalem." A Son Appears Six months later the Queen of Sheba returned to her people. A child was to be born and Solomon had exacted a promise from her that if it was a son she would send him to visit him. He gave her a ring to give this son in order that he might be recognized. In time a son was born, later Menelik I. But the Queen was loath to let the boy go. At last he approached manhood and as he had always been asking about his father and was wishing to go to see him, Makeda fled him to Jerusalem. When Solomon saw the young man his heart went out to him. What a striking resentment and he felt to his grandfather, King David, Solomon re-christened him David, and planned to make him his successor. But the young man declined the honor. He said that he had sworn to his mother, hand on her breast that he would return. Still Solomon strove hard to keep him. A. Throat To Rebel Then an incident occurred that made Solomon consent to part with the young man. Rebobusham, another Rebobusham, threw before the coming of Menghil and Rebobusham's supporters, were threatening to rebel. —Before-sending Menelik away, Solomon, in a brilliant ceremony, crowned him King of Ethiopia.—To give Mark Ye, Fe Delegate Leaving Secure A Seat - A GRAND O Will be Given by the Licence of AT 66 HERKIMER STREET On Sunday Afternoon, An elaborate program will be speakers will be on hand, incl International Convention of The Also celebrated musical artists Songbirds of the race Admission On Sunday Afternoon, July 21st, at 9 P.M.

But Zariah, on-leavin, is said to have changed it for the real one, with the result that the original Ark went to Ethiopia. 6,000 Virgins Back to Abyssinia Menelik I established the religion of Israel. Six thousand black virgins were chosen, the Daughters of Zion, according to the lava. In the Church at Axum, Abyssinia, is still venerated a, copy of one of the Tables of the Law said to be given by Solomon as well as the crown of gold; and precious stones that Solomon is said to have placed on the Queen of Sheba's head. These as well as the imperial ornaments, all presents from Solomon to the Queen are exhibited at each marriage of a member of the royal family. Makeda was born in 1020 B. C. and was the only daughter of King Quacusaya and the Queen Imanale. She came to the throne at the age of 15, one year before Solomon succeeded David, and died at the age of 65. She was succeeded by her son. When she visited Solomon, she was 35, and at the height of her beauty. Arka in the Tigre and Axum were her principal residences. A few years ago her tomb as well as the Trinis of a great temple and 22 obelisks of her period, were excavated at Axum. Makeda, Great Ruler Makeda possessed all the qualities of a great king. Two holy books, the Bible and the Koran have mentioned her. Her fame extended even into distant parts of savage Europe. The Greeks spoke of her as "The Black Minerva" and "The Ethiopian Diana." In Arabian writings the Queen of Sheba is called Balkis. This has led some writers to say that, there were two Queens of Sheba, both consortes of Solomon, one of which came from Arabia. But when it is recalled that at that time, Makeda was herself ruling in Arabia, it being a part of the Seban Empire, it will be easily seen that Makeda and Balkis are one. Balkis may have been one of—her names. In our next article we will tell of Merkelik II, direct descendant of the Queen of Sheba over a period of 2821 years.
