As usual, I am not here to flatter you, I am not here to tell you how happy and prosperous we are as a people, because that is all false. The Negro is not happy, but, to the contrary, is extremely miserable.

Negro Dying Out The Negro is dying out, and he is going rapidly in the next fifty years than he has in years. There is only one thing to save the Negro from exploitation of his own responsibilities. Our enemies and in different people in the world are responsible, and that is why we find ourselves unable to bear a Negro leader speak in this country, but I would not falter you to save my humanity.

We want the world to know, our own Empire, the whole world of men to know, that attack men are no longer cowards—we are not afraid of anything in the world. Then way more other men try to intimidate us. Do they not know that we can strike back and strike so hard that others can feel it. Let us be reasonable and we advise the Negro historian of Jamaica to stop worrying the government and officials in advising them to be unfaithful and unjust to Negroes, because it will and implacably. Huge Meeting At Edelweis Park Friday Night, August 2nd U. N. I. A. Again Names Marcus Garvey Its Head President General and Founder Re-elected by Acclamation KINGSTON, Jamaica, Wed., Aug. 7. In a session attended by fifteen thousand delegates, and marked by an undercurrent of opposition, Marcus Garvey, president general and founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was re-selected head of that body at its sixth international congress here Wednesday. Garvey was also selected to continue as head of the African Communities League which has headquarters in St. Andrews. Meets Opposition That there was a well defined opposition however was kept well evident throughout the session. This opposition however, was kept well under control by the tactful hand- KING BEHANZIN ```markdown ``` Meeta Opposition ```markdown ``` ling of a well oiled majority steam roller. Several times the two factions almost clashed, and at the Tuesday business session, Garvey adhered, after charging that there were delegates present for the sole purpose of making trouble, urged the President General to point them out by name. This, however, Garvey did not do on the ground that it would not be discreet to name the trouble-makers and undesirables. In accepting the presidency of the organization Garvey declared that it had no official relations with the incorporated association in New York. On the eve of the meeting of the congress, Garvey and officials of the association were hailed into court by G. Marks, who sought to collect obligations incurred by the body which Garvey headed in New York. No Relation Masterly Scientific Review On Color Line "Bielwais Park" rang with the sound of clapping and the vosiforous applause of ten thousand people who had gathered once again on Friday night last to listen to the oratory of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and two eminent speakers from the United States, one Dr. J. J. Peters, and the other Mr. J. A. Craigen, both delegates to the Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, which opened on Thursday last. Several other delegates were seated on the platform, including the Hon. E. B. Knox, Madame M. L. T. Demena, Sir William Ware, Hon. W. A. Wallace, Hons. S. R. Rows, Aaron J. Johnson, Gladys Parker, Alexander Dixon, J. S. Groom, S. V. Robertson, Mrs. F. B. Fields, L. V. D. Schmidt, Charles M. James, Martin Jackson, Rev. Ethel Williams and others. A delightful programme of music and recitation preceded the orations. Mr. John Lyons, the male soprano, rendered a song, Mr. Granville Campbell, talented tenor, contributed a solo as did Mrs. Steadman and Mr. R. E. McKinnon Stewart, Miss Hewie sang in fine style the song: "Keep Cool", which was composed by Marcus Garvey while in Atlanta prison. Professor Gerardo R. Leon recited with much feeling a poem composed by himself. MR. J. A. CRAIGEN'S SPEECH The first speaker was Mr. J. A. Craigem, whom the Chairman, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, introduced as High Commissioner of the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the State of Michigan. He said: "Ladies: The Honorable President General of the Universal Improvement Association and other officers and delegates here assembled: Before I attempt to say anything concerning this Universal Negro Improvement Association, I must deliver to you my fellow workers in the canon Africa greetings from the Detroit, Michigan Division. This has withstood all opposition and obstacles in its attempt to redeem our motherland Africa. Detroit sends her greetings to you with the fullest sympathy and with her spirit of co-operation, joined with you in the demonstration that you had here yesterday. I want to tell you to eight that in the enthusiastic demonstration yesterday, in the demonstration up to the very moment—you can rest assured that there are thousands in the state of Detroit who share such enthusiasm with you. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which we are a part, is enduring to do for four hundred million Negroes of the world what you are enduring in do here in Jersey. In this very moment there is your beautiful island. I must not but feel so you feel, so I give your demonstration together with these thousands of Negroes of the world who did so as the sons of Detroit who were and will be sons of Jersey. that just be well as often must be proud of their country. Negroes should be proud of one distinguished to themselves. It is a wonderful feeling to know that wherever you go, whatever things you may speak, the cause of Africa is prevalent within your very souls, the cause we are attempting to promulgate, the cause for which we have been suffering for these many years, the cause for which we are willing to sacrifice anything, you even our lives. Men may deny it as they desire; but just as there is a God who rules the world, Africans shall be free and Negroes shall retain their country. (Applause). Why shouldn't the Negroes have a country of their own? (A voice: "We want to know). All other races of the world have their own way of claiming nationality. They have had to go through the same hardships the Negroes have had to go through. SOME WHOLESOME CHAT As you send your boys to school—the free schools with white boys, with brown boys, and with yellow boys, they accomplish their aims and go out into the world with an aim in life. The white boy goes out with an impulse that drives him to do great wonders. This is the same cause that made Japan control Japan; the same cause that made the Chinese control China; the same cause that made the Mexicans control Mexico, and it is the same cause that is urging four hundred million Negroes to go and take back their motherland, Africa; and as we stand up here, the world is listening to what we are going to do. We are here to give to our posterity something tangible: snorros anything that can be sacrificed; but as we go back to the place from whence we came, we feel that something has been accomplished. Continuing, the speaker said that he knows that God is just, and as the little stars shine in the armament above, as the Sun gives out No Light in the days; and the moon be silent and just as they were there that night under the leads, ship of Mercury Glory, just as will Africa be redefined. (Applause.) Dr. Peter's Comment Dr. J. J. Potem, High Commissioner for the U. N. L. A. for the State of Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, "the three worst states in the United States of America." was the most member.

X., Sunday night, August 18th, 1999. Henry coat was taken in the largest hall, the new Liberty Hall of the Carvery Club, Inc., of New York, who are staging meetings of the Uni- versal Negro Improvement Association, under his auspices. Long before the hour for the start of the meeting, hundreds of inter- nal members and friends, from all parts of this great city gathered to hear the news of the U. N. L. A., the world over, and especially to hear of the reports of the happenings of the International Convention of the World. This was high, as the time for the meeting drew near; and by the time the word was given for the proximal hymn to start the house was vibrant with the feeling that was almost tangible in its intensity. Prof. Ulrick Hassell and his hand in their accustomed place were in the One Thin Woman Gained 15 Pounds In Five Weeks Men, and women; weak, thin and miserable, are urged to put on weight and get back their health and strength with McCoy's Tablets. One woman gained 15 pounds in five weeks and that's going fast enough for Europe. McOey takes all the risk—read this trembled guarantee. If after taking 4 early onset boxes of McOey's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman doesn't win at least 5 pounds and feel completely satisfied with the marked improvement in health—your money will be returned. Just ask for McOey's Tablets at any drug store. McOey's Laboratories, Inc., 62 W. 14th Street, New York City best of spirits, and gave such splendid renditions that the vast assembly were stirred to deeper emotions. The Chair, under the direction of Mr. Dume, came in for a share of the honors of the evening, by the splendid anthems rendered by them, which added to the attractiveness of the evening's program. The Black Cross Nurses, were not behind hand in their activities to help to make the meeting a success. The Legion, under Col. J.-W. Beilamy, the Motor Corps, and the Juveniles were all to be commended for the dash of realism which they contributed to the scene; and there was no doubt that the appearance of these various units, caused some minds to look forward to the coming of a day when they will be of actual service to the race, that is struggling to be free. A solo by Miss Douglas merited the warm appreciation of the audience, as was also a rendition by the "FAMOUS SEVEN". Among the speakers on the evening's program were: Mr. George Maynark, author of the hymn, "The way be dark and dreary"; Mr. J. E. Clarke, who had recently arrived from the convention in Jamaica, and brought words of encouragement from the Asat'i International Organizer, Mme. M. L. L. T. DeLena; Mr. Huxiable of the U. A. Legions, Mr. P. Rhoden of "The Famous Seven"; Mr. W. Thompson, who had been a former president of one of the divisions in Cuba, and was still devoted to the cause of the awakened and uplifted Negro and an African Redeemed; and Mr. Chas. M. Bolden, of the Aviation department. A solo by Mrs. James of the Garvey Club, Inc., an ardent and faithful worker for the cause was warmly re- a number of your race without thought of the marrow, for it permits evil for him that this both not. Because I cannot better you I am here to tell you, and emphatically, that if we do not seriously recognise as a people and face the world with a program of African nationalism our days in civilisation are numbered, and it will be only a question of time when the Negro will be as completely and completely dead as the North American Indian, or the Australian Bushman. Program on stand. You talk about the progress we have made in America and elsewhere among the people of our acquaintance, but what progress is it? A progress that can be matched away from you in forty-eight hours, because it has been built upon sand. You must thank God for the last two generations of whites in our western civilization; thank God that they were not made of sterner stone, and character and a disposition to see all races their rivals and competitors in the struggle to hold and possess the world, otherwise, like the Indian, we would have nearly all been dead. their differences and settle the future of our respective people. The solitude of both races will not step to think and not, but the responsibility becomes more so sure, who have the vision of the future. Recognising the Race I repeat that we must recognize ourselves as a people if we are to go forward, and I take this opportunity as you assemble yourselves here from all parts of the world to sound the warning note. To review the work of our Association for the past two years is to recount the exploits of a continent. The progress of the Negro in our civilization was tolerated because of indifference, but that indifference excludes no longer. Our whole civilization is becoming intolerant, and because of that the whole world of race has started to think. Does Not Blame the White Man? Can you blame the white man for thinking, when red and yellow men are knocking at his door? Can you blame the tiger for being on the defensive when the lion approaches? And thus we find that generations ago where the Negro was not given a thought as a world competitor he is now regarded as an encumbrance in a civilization to which he has materially contributed little. Men do not build for others they build for themselves. The age and our religion demanded it. What are you going to expect, that white men are going to build up in America and elsewhere and hand it over to us? If we are expecting that we are crazy, we have lost our reason. If you were white, you would see the rest in hell before you would deprive your children of bread to give it to others. You would give that which you did not want, but not that which is to be the sustenance of your family, and so the world thinks. Do you think that they who bled and died to make America and the world what it is, are going to hand over to a parcel of Negroes the things that they prize most? Stop flattering yourselves, fellowmen, and let us go to work. Do you hear me? Go to work, go to work in the morn of a new creation and strike not because of the noonday sun, but plod on and on, until you have succeeded in climbing the hills of opposition and reached the height of self-progress, and from that pinch beneath upon the world a civilization of your own, and hand down to your children and posterity of your own a worthy contribution to the age of human materialism. Fair and Just We of the Universal Negro Improvement association are fair and just. We do not expect the white man to rob himself and to deprive himself for our racial benefit. How could you reasonably expect that in an age like this, when men have divided themselves into racial and national groups, when the one group has its own interest to protect as against that of the other? The laws of self-preservation force every human group to look after itself and protect its own interest, hence so long as the American white man or any other white man, for that matter, realizes his responsibility, he is bound to struggle to protect that which is his and his own, and I feel that the Negro today who has been led by the unscrupulous of our race has been grossly misguided in the direction of expecting too much from the civilization of others. The Carpet-Bazger Immediately after emancipation, we were improperly led in the South by this same group and ultimately lost our vote and voice. The carpet-bagger and the thoughtless, seahalf Negro politician and leader sold the race back into slavery. And the same attempt is now being made in the North by that original group prompted by the dishonest white political boss and the unscrupulous Negro politician. The time has come for both races to seriously adjust their differences and settle the future of our respective peoples. The solitude of both races will not step to think and not, but the responsibility becomes more so ours, who have the vision of the future. Recognizing the Race I repeat that we must recognize ourselves as a people if we are to go forward, and I take this opportunity as you assemble yourselves here from all parts of the world to sound the warning note. To review the work of our Association for the past two years is to recount the exploits of a continuous struggle to reach the top. Our organization has been tested during the past two years beyond that of any other period in the history of Negro movements. I am glad to say, however, that we have survived all the intrigues, barriers and all the handicaps placed in the way. Some of our enemies thought that they would have been able to crush our movement when I was convicted and sentenced to prizes. They had depended upon that as the trump card in their effort to crush the new spirit of freedom among Negroes, but like all such efforts, it was doomed to failure. I will bring to your memory a similar effort made a little over nineteen hundred years ago when in Calvary's mount the Jews after inspiring the Romans, attempted to crucify the man Christ, the leader of the Christian religion. They thought that after the crucifixion, after he was buried, that they would have silenced the principles of Christianity forever, but how successful they were is made manifest today when we find hundreds of millions of souls the world over professing the principles for which the man died on Calvary's cross. As in the rise of Christianity, no do we have the spiritual rites of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world. They tried to crucify it in America, and it has arisen in Africa a thousand fold. They tried to crucify it in the American continent, and it is now sweeping the whole world. You cannot crucify a principle; you cannot call the souls of men to a cross; you cannot imprison it; you cannot bury it. It will rise like the spirit of the Great Redemer and take its flight down the ages, until men far and near have taken up the cry for which the principle was crucified. - Unbroken in Spirit We of the Universal Negro Improvement association are stronger today than we ever were before. We are strong in spirit, strong in determination; we are unbroken in every direction; we stand firm facing the world, determined to carve out and find a place for the four hundred millions of our suffering people. We call upon humanity everywhere to listen to the city of the new Negro. We ask the human heart for a response because Africa's sun cannot be down. Africans sun is rising, gradually rising, and soon he shall take his place among the brilliant constellations of nations. The Negro wants a nation, nothing less, nothing more; and why shouldn't we be nationally free, nationally independent, nationally unfettered? We want a similar nationality to that of the English, the French, the Italian, the German, to that of the white American, to that of the yellow Japanese; we want nationality and government. We can realize that the American nation in a short while will not be large enough to accommodate two competitive rivals, one black and the other white. Black Man's Aspirations Black Man's aspirations There is no doubt about it that the black man of America today aspires to the White House, to the Cabinet, and to the Senate, and the House. He aspires to be head of State and municipal governments. What are you going to do with him? He cannot be satisfied in the midst of a majority group that seeks to protect its interest at all hazards; that the only alternative is to give the Negro a place of his own. That is why we appeal to the sober white minds of America, and not the selfish ones. The selfish ones will see nothing more than the immediate present, but the deep thinking white man will see the result of another fifty or one hundred years, when these two peoples will be brought together in closer contact of rivalry. As races we practically represent a similar intelligence today. We have graduated out of, and passed through, the same schools, colleges and universities. What can you do with men who are equally and competently fitted in mind but give them an equal chance, and if there is no chance of equality, there must be disenfraternization on the one hand. That disenfraternization we have in our midst now. Gustavus sums up here he began that he thought in represented the three worst states in the Union. He wanted them to find that their business and matters in the United States were with them in the struggle for that thing which they called justice. He was going to talk to them on the subject: "Garvey Caller". On the meeting of the previous day he heard the preacher frequently discussing a passage from the scripture in which he said that Jesus calls you to do certain things. He thought that he (the preacher) having told them that Jesus called them, his subject was rather in order that night. He thought it was perfectly in keeping with good judgment to have one of their own to call them once in a while just as it was important to have Jesus to call them once in a while. Garvey called them from ignorance to knowledge—from ignorance of their true condition—from ignorance of the shackles which now hold them tight; Garvey called them from colour prejudice within their race. Garvey called them to destroy colour complex and to become one in the struggle for justice and freedom. He tells you further: that the man who despares you because of your colour is your greatest enemy. There were people among them in the States from which he came who thought that to be black was a curse, but he was going to take two minutes to analyse that view. He was going to show that the biological substances that cause one to be black was something that was missing in other people. Take somebody like himself, for instance they would find that when the sun begins to shine he would just keep on shining with the sun (laughter); but take somebody else who lacks that same degree of pigmentation that the black man has and they would find that when the sun begins to shine his skin begins to peel off (laughter). Anthropologists and scientists have told them that the only race to be transported from one climate to the other and to maintain identity, and to survive all conditions that come with change, in the Negro race. Therefore what had they to be ashamed of. He wanted them all to understand that white men respect the man they called Garvey. Freedom cannot be purchased by money, but by hard fighting and determination. The Negroes had not lost a single leader yet. The only one that went to prison for a little while in Marcos Garvey (A voice: And he is here now, laughter). But when they read the pages of history they found that other races had lost many leaders upon the star of sacrifice. More Survey again The Hon. Marcus Garvey was the next speaker. After the thundous applause with which he was greeted he said nature had made man and divided him into races. The ages have seen the appearance and disappearance of many races in the great struggle of the survival of the fittest. That day, they were face to face with the conflict of another age in which man is called upon to play his part and play it well. They had not changed much in this age, in this generation from looking towards their clan, from looking within the tribe, and so they found on every hand, man is divided because of the call of race, because of the call of clan, because of the call of tribe. They represented one of the groups that have survived the ages because of their courage; because of their fitness to live (hear, hear), and apparently they were on the last stage of the struggle to survive, because man was more active in the 20th century than he has been herefore, and so on every hand they heard of war and rumors of war because man were preparing for the final struggle, much of that struggle; a race that has been outwitted for the last five hundred years, a race that was gradually recovering itself, in readiness to hold his own among men. The Negro stood before the world to-day, a determined creature, a creature of will, a creature of character. This will and this character, will make him what he hopes to be—ruler of his realm. God divided man into groups, into sections of the tribes so he geographically placed them in their native habitat. The man of white he gave Europe; the man in yellow he gave part of Asia; the man in brown he gave another part of Asia, and the man in black he gave Africa (applause). Man because of his courage and weakness has transgressed the law of God and invaded the dominion of man. Each race in turn began to invade the domain of the other. That invasion was breaking down now. Presently Africa shall call a halt and Ethiopia shall once more rule. The orater then proceeded to give illustrations of men who had served their country well—men whom freedom called into active service. They as black men shall take the current which was now serving them in the 20th century, just the same as the England, Poland, India, Japan and Ireland—they would take the current which would carry 600,000,000 black men towards their emancipation. They shall disarm truth only at the Convention, truth only as it affects the Negro. (Applause.) Negroes Are A Hindrance To The Race The Negro race is in an awful plight! After reading a couple of articles of a series of stories published in "The Tattler," a magazine published in New York, about the Horn. Marcus Garvey, I wondered if we were really men or monkeys, who comprise the Negro race. I personally think that as a race of people, we have not yet reached the point where we should attempt to destroy ourselves; but rather where we, as an oppressed race, should stop, think and resolve never to speakable and fight any longer among ourselves. Most everyone knows that the name of Marcus Garvey appearing on the front page of any journal creates attraction; for the same reason his name is used, and the journal becomes a good seller for the time being. The managers and writers seem to understand this very well. I am wondering at this moment whose name will appear on the front of the Tattler for attraction after this series shall be ended. Who is as big as Garvey? As important as he? Such men as this are the hindrances, that they have stood in the way of the unfortunate Negro for many a decade. Unfortunately, the American Negroes have in the past been isolated mentally from his brothers in far-off lands. To him, all other Negroes were merely strangers and foreigners of a lower type than his—a torture error. Now since Garvey came, he has changed this selfish attitude, by means of his dynamic psychology, but still there are men like the writer of this story, who are trying to make the good work which has been done. It is for the same reason that the Hon. Marcus stated in a recent message, that there is not one real, genuine Negro to be found in the entire Negro race. Of course, it would not be good policy for him to say he is the only real Negro living today who is capable of the position he now fills—but he really is. North Carolina For Negroes For B Large Sums Being Spe North Carolina College For Negroes Preparing For Banner Year Large Sums Being Spent for Improvements Dr. Shepard Has Hope of Great Future DURHAM, N.C.--The North Carolina College for Negroes is anticipating the best year in its entire history, and preparations are now being made for the opening month, according to Dr. James E. Shepard, who has been head of the institution since its inception. The college is now in the midst of a large building and improvement program that will place it on par with any institution of learning in the South in equipment and personnel, and its expansion and growth in recent years has probably been more prenomenal than that of any other college in the South. A new administration building, one of the handsomest in the South and erected at a cost of $145,000, will greet the old and new students at the opening of the fall term. In this will be the offices of Dr. Shepard and other administrative officers, as well as classrooms and offices for instructors. It will be thoroughly due to the efforts of Dr. Shepard and the friends of the institution whose efforts resulted in its erection. Two other handsome buildings will be started in the near future. A dormitory, to house 100 students, will be erected at a cost of $100,000, and a new dining room and kitchen will be built at a cost of $43,000. Since the present huge improvement program was started, the college has attracted widespread attention. It has twice been the scene of the meeting of the Fant Finding Conference, which is composed of G. O. P. Plans 'Lily White' Drive In South Huston Being Groomed to Take Dr. Work Post and Consolidate Last Campaign Gains WASHINGTON.—Foremost in the deliberations of the Republican national committee, beginning here September 9, will be development of plans for building a "fly-white" party in the South and consolidating the Republican gains in the Hoover-Smith campaign. That is one of the reasons it developed today, why Claudia H. Huston of Chattanooga, Tenn., is being promised to succeed Dr. Robert Work as chairman of the national committee. Unless there is a last-minute upset in the plains, Huston will take over the reins. Choice for First Huston is uninterested in be President Herber's choice for the post. When Mr. Herber was Secretary of Commerce Huston served as an assistant secretary of commerce and helped build the machine which created the G. O. P. presidential association for President. Education of Huston would be acquired of a good grade to the grade, since he would in the past continued served to the Republican congress. It would be the new chairman who would out a similar position to the former chairman. I am quite sure that a man like this author cannot consider himself a real Negro in the sense of the word—that is if he is a Negro at all. "The greater glory dams the law" is a true saying; and so the glory of those little fellows—if they have any all, is to that of Curray's like the glow of a candle at the head of a corpse; to the brilliant rays of the summer's sun. Now, if Garvey is a fool, no one would bother himself about writing stories—which he claims will hold one's attention as few stories can. Garvey is not a fool, but a fool naturally thinks a wise man is a fool. Among the foolish things the author mentioned in his story, comment on Garvey in the Negro World, are as follows: "He displays optimism, braggadocia, and ignorance of the fundamentals for which he has become famous! The Negroes were eager to join anything, especially that which promised them an empire in Africa where they could be their own boss and kick white folks around as they had for centuries waited to do." Now this is one of the smart men of the Negro race—if he belongs to it? A Negro is not an傻子 as he thinks he is傻子 he is on the side of the U. N. L. A., for it is the only reasonable escape the Negro is going to have in the harder days to come. The great statemen of the United States of America know it: those of Europe and Asia know it: because they are trained men along the line of nationalism, and in the science of human existence. Unfortunately these are called important Negroes know nothing of the kind; because they have no government to give them that scientific training. All the training they possess is to move from one flat to another. Such a man as this, is worse than any jungle-man in Africa, who does not understand the difference between a place of diamond and an ordinary stone. We of the U. N. I. A. are advising these kindergarten boys to keep quiet and cease modelling with full grown men. China College es Preparing anner Year ent for Improvements open, of the fall term. In this will be lo. the offices of Dr. Shepard, and other administrative officers, as well as classrooms and offices for instructors. It will be thoroughly due to the efforts of Dr. Shepard and the friends of the institution whose efforts resulted in its erection. Two other handsome buildings will be started in the near future. A dormitory, to house ICG students, will be erected at a cost of $100,000, and a new dining room and kitchen will be built at a cost of $45,000. Since the present huge improvement program was started, the college has attracted widespread attention. It has twice been the scene of the meeting of the Fact Finding Conference, which is composed of the leading Negro citizens of America. Dr. Shepard, as president of this Conference, has demonstrated leadership not only in the realm of education but also as a man useful to and interested in his race. An excellent enrollment is expected this year, and the college is looking forward to the best year in its history. CONVENTION BIGGEST EVENT IN JAMA (Continued from Page Two) opening speech of the convention, but I can think, that I hope that the en- tire session will mark a new deter- mination in the history of our orga- nisation. I ask for a motion that we encounter until this afternoon, at which time I hope to resume the business of the organization." Mr. W. A. Wal- hore of Chicago, motioned that the session be adjourned until 2 P. M. Motion seconded by Mr. S. V. Robert- son of Cleveland, Ohio. Convention adjourned. AFTERNOON SESSION Mr. Garvey: "The acting Secretary-General will now read the minutes of the morning session." Minutes read by Miles Ethel Collins. Motion that the minutes be received, by Mr. Nixon of Chicago, seconded by Mr. Cunningham of New York (Garvey Club). Unreadiness: Dr. Peters of New Orlean, La.: My unreadiness Mr. G. R. Christian, Pres., Columbus, O. is that I think the minutes should be a detailed transaction of this morning's session, for instance, the prayer was emitted, etc. Mr. Garvey, that is what I meant by a provision of the minutes. I am sure that Miss Collins will encouch the entire transactions of this morning's session." Mr. Craigum: Unreadiness: I would like to know whether the delegate that made the motion has the right to make the motion, as I understand that only delegates with red cards will be allowed to vote in the convention." Mr. Garvey: "It has not been passed upon yet, but I will rule that delegates with red cards will be the only persons allowed to vote on important issues in the organization. I rule that the delegate from Chicago has a right to make such motion, as I have not ruled on this issue concerning the delegate cards." Motion carried. Mr. Garvey Sweaks "Delegates to the sixth International Convention of the Negro peoples of the world, and to the convention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League. It was rather fortunate that I was not able this morning to make the official or opening speech of the convention, especially of this business session, neither am I prepared to make it now, because of the tremendous amount of business in the organization. I have been unable to properly prepare same. Nevertheless, I promise you that tomorrow I shall make the official opening speech, in keeping with the position that I hold, as President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, and as leader of the Sixth Annual International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World. But, I may say this, in keeping with the present situation, that it is good that we are here. "We are here under serious and important circumstances. The real purpose of this assembly is to organize permanently an organization, as well as to be responsible for the looking after the rights of the Negro race. This convention, I hope, will intelligently understand the present world situation, as that affects our race. "We hope to be able to perfect such an organization out of this convention, as will be able at all times to safe-guard and protect the interest of our race. In fact, the convention is to create a new organization. I have, by my own perseverance, determination and interest tried to hold on to the name that we have brought into the convention, with the hope of giving new vitality, new life and new interest to that name, the name of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and African Communities League. Most of us are from divisions of this organization that have been in existence for nearly fifteen years. By the hand of circumstance the world had apparently brought its written hand on the association, to no embarrass it, that prior to my advent in this country from American, and my deportation, as you know, the organization had become bankrupt in the United States of America. "All of you know the history of the population during my longtime visit. During my longtime visit I was the hands of which man, visiting him, pretty man, equally man, was without know, now without disorder, from without any event of the pre-style care. The so-called "old" life, with the years and years they had made the one of the most beautiful to the most beautiful life I have had my life you know, and after I came here, I endeavored to give new life to the organization. I found the 6th Assistant President-General had done nothing to give new life to the organization, but when I came here, I saw the situation, and from what money I had, I financed the organization by paying its expenses here, until I was able to get in touch with the foreign branches of the organization, and so the accomplishments you see here, are the results of my activities. After the divisions began reporting, we were able to revive the organization here, and in various parts of the islands that I visited. I want to England, as you know, to represent the Negroes of the association, and I have been able to create a great impression on my visit. I went to Europe by the help of the Negro peoples of the world, and I am sure that my visit in Europe helped to revive the organization, and the people took new courage to support the cause of Africa. "When I found out that the divisions were complaining about the reports being sent to American headquarters, and could receive no answers from same, and were dismissified, I decided that, and with their consent, to have all the divisions report to Jamaica; and so from January, 1920, the American divisions linked up with Jamaica, and reported here. The organization as I stated before was bankrupt and the trouble of this case in the court this morning, is the result of some of the situations in America. "I trust that this convention will not make the mistake that previous conventions have made. Conventions of the past, elected men of utray; men who had absolutely nothing but confidence of the people. Men who were able to give nothing to the organization, but came in to take something out of it. I trust that you will never make the mistake again. Men like Marke, who is suing the organization for $50,000, and have never earned one penny of it hardly. You can know by this, how disgusted I am. If I had not worked so realistically, there would have been no organization to take to court. Because I live for the organization, because the ideals I draw, perpetuates the organization, and you see the result. I will stoop to nothing, but will work for the freeing of the Negroes from the hands of others. "I hope to retain all my senses, fortunately I am not a man of strong drinks, and shall not get drunk. I know some of you have come here with the devil in your hearts, but after my past sacrifice and suffering, I will knock the devil out of any man's heart who thinks he is going to implicate me with any of his devilry. I was imprisoned for two years and ten months, due to your devilry; and I am not going to be embarrassed again for any deviltry. I made the supreme sacrifice years ago, and I found out that I did it to help those who were unworthy of my sacrifice. I was not in prison two hours, before the scallawags of this organization turned their backs on me. If you want the Universal Negro Improvement Association, you are welcome to it, but Marcus Garvey is not going to have any association with any rascal. I have made my sacrifice, and I know it. I have robbed the organization of nothing. You may search my record, and you will find that I have robbed the U. N. I. A. of nothing. I shall not associate myself with men who will not stand the test of sacrifice. "From 1922. I have never yet received a full pay check for salary from the Universal Negro Improvement Association. All that I possessed in the world has been mortgaged and loaned in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. I have taken chances of being put out of doors, for when it came to a decision between guaranting my meals and the next month's rent the money has gone into the Universal Negro Improvement Association. "Here I am, re-assembled into the organization for the second time to turn over to the convention a new organization. The $50,000 worth of equity we had in Liberty Hall in New York as a result of my labor, was lost. The branches over all America were bankrupt, as a result of salary of high paid officers in the U. N. I. A. Everyone of the officers have sued for salary. Toote can state here, W. A. Wallace, who was the Secretary-General at the time, can state here, whether or not, I received $100 during my incarceration in Atlanta prison. "I came here and started a new organisation, paid salaries out of my pocket, paid furniture bills out of my pocket, and now I learn that Miss Dovin is demanding money on her book salary. I will not annotate myself with any manual that is not human. I am going to turn over to you another organisation, to elect men that will not come in for what they can get out of it, but for what they can put into it. I will be a there in the life of any man, who thinks he is going to embarrass me again. Now I have no agenda worked out for the convention, and I ask for an adjustment until this evening's session, in order that I may prepare an agenda for the convention, that is, in case already has anything to say of what I have already already U.N.I.A. TO ECONOMIC DISTRESS NEW NEGRO TO POLITICAL DEATH TO MENTAL PARALYSIS TO RACE SUICIDE BACK TO SLAVERY Discourses of India Harbour seconded the motion. Mr. Leonard Smith of Detroit; "You ready, I would like to know whether we are to assemble here to do business tonight or in mass session?" Mr. Garvey: "The minutes were read, and if the speaker failed to hear, I am not responsible." Mr. Smith: "I did not hear same." Mr. Wallace: "I would like the opportunity of getting the proper understanding of the statement the speaker in convention made, that W. A. Wallace was the Secretary-General, and you not receiving $100 during your imprisonment, in order that it would be thoroughly understood that it was not due to any misconduct on my part." Mr. Garvey: "I made that reference regarding that the office never sent me a check for $100 during my imprisonment, and that you, as Secretary-General would be able to state whether I was sent a check for $100 or not. I referred to your name only as a verification." Mr. Wallace: "I have no knowledge at any time of any check being sent the Hon. Marcus Garvey. I had nothing to do with the paying out of the money, nor the receiving of it. I have served the organization and sacrificed for it, and I have made my reports from time to time of all finance that I collected on my visits to the divisions." Mr. Garvey: "I only asked you to verify the statement." Dr. Peters: "Now, it goes without saying, that any statement made by the President-General will be cherished in the minds of the people. But one thing I think would be necessary, that if the President-General is acquainted with the individuals who have come all the way to de- TO ECONOMIC DISTRESS TO MENTAL PARALYSIS solve him and with despair in their hearts to embarrass him, as he has stated, I think he should call the names of those individuals, in order that the convention might know of them, and might not misinterpret his statement on any particular delegate here assembled. We know that what he says will go, regardless." Mr. Garvey: "I am capable of understanding what I say, and I am not ready to have more litigation than what I already have on me now. But when it comes for the time of electing officers, I am not going to associate with those who I do not think capable, and I am going to draw the line, and then tell you why I draw the line." Convention adjourned at 4:30 P. M. until the right session. Session opened by singing of "Shine On Eternal Light," with the Hon. Marcus Garvey in the chair. Selection by the band and the choir. Solic by Mia Hutt entitled "The Rosary." Mr. Garvey: Fallow co-workers: As prelude to the sessions at night, it is customary, that we have a short musical and literary program for the entertainment of the delegates themselves. That makes it so that we take up the collection early. Collection taken and singing of "Oh African Awaken." Announcements made by the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Minutes read by the Acting Secretary-General, Mirel Nile Collins. Mrs. James of Gray, Indian, moved that the minutes be received and adopted with the proper correction, if there be any. Mr. Christian of Columbus, Ohio, seconded. Unannounced: Mr. Giorgio of Detroit, Mr. Leonepoul Boulanger of Detroit and the St. Mary's the world from which the delegates come, so that we can intelligently discuss some. We generally give two days to this discussion. Due to the shortage of time, etc., we are going to allow various delegates of the world to discuss the topic of the day, taking up five minutes. I would suggest that the delegates get together and select the most intelligent individual or delegates from their section to discuss on the topic in order to not take up too much time. Mr. Leonard Smith of Detroit: In it within the course of procedure that we should determine just where we stand in reference to the delegates who represent the people, by having the roll called, and should the delegates register their opinion as to who they should have for the speaker of the Convention, if so, I make a motion that we have the roll of the delegates called. Mr. Christian of Columbus, Ohio, seconded. Unreadiness: Dr. Peters: My unreadiness is that if the gentlemen making the motion desire to have said motion as a regular procedure at every session. Mr. Smith: Not necessarily, but to call the delegates of the U. N. I. A. in order that we may know who is, and who is not. Motion carried. Mr. Garvey: Will the registrar please call the roll of delegates. The Registrar: The roll is not completely compiled, in order to call same tonight. Mr. Leonard of Detroit, motion that we be given the privilege as to who we should have as speaker in the convention. Mr. Jackson of Washington, seconded. Mr. Wallace: I am not in favor of the motion, as I believe that the delegates have the privilege already. I make an amendment to the motion. N.I.A. TO IMMIGRATION WOOD NEW NEGRO BACK TO SLAVERY that we proceed to elect our speaker of the convention. Mr. Johnson of St. Louis, seconded the amendment. Amendment carried. Mr. Wallace: Motion that the Hon. Marcus Garvey be the speaker in the convention. Seconded by Mr. J. J. Thomas of Mobile. Mr. Leonard Smith: Motion that the Hon. F. B. Knox be the speaker in the convention. Mr. Knox declines. Motion that Mr. Garvey be elected by acclamation. Nominations closed, and Mr. Garvey was elected by acclamation as the speaker in the convention. Discussion continued. Mr. Wallace: In taking up the first item on the agenda, political and social freedom of the Negro race. I would like to know if you have reference to the conditions existing in different localities, or if you have reference to the condition throughout the width of the world in general. Mr. Garvey: The condition that exist in your particular section. Mr. Craigen: Mr. Speaker in convention, other delegates here assembled, spoke on the condition of the Negro politically and socially in his session. He stated that the condition of the Negro peoples of the world was the same everywhere. Dr. J. J. Peters of New Orleans: I am interested in quite a few conditions that affect the group of people from which I come. In our section, we have started to do certain things along the line of education and other means for our people. We have started three new schools in our section, especially in that section where education is limited to three months. One of a white man arrested in New Orleans because of the killing of a colored woman. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has always been held up as a sort of joke in the eyes of many people, due to the fact that we have had representation on the field who did not intelligently discuss the organ- nation. Due to the inhuman treatment of our people in the hospitals, we have a sort of charity hospital organized in New Orleans to take care of our people. The day that we have not arise as clinic day, we have counted 83 new patients. Mr. Leonard Smith of Detroit: The political situation in my section is not what it should be, but is the best that can be expected at this time. Educational conditions in the city of Detroit is the best that can be found anywhere. There are a great many Negroes in our city unemployed, because of the great number of immigrants coming in, and except something is done, they will find themselves where they used to be. We have a strong political machine in the city of Detroit, which is very good. Mr. J. C. Crooms from Philadelphia. If there is anything that is needed in the world, it is needed here where the Negro should strike a one-nose. Negroes need leadership. We have always been led, but it has been the wrong kind of leadership. Political situation in Philadelphia is rotten because the people are not together. There is a great deal of improvement along the line of social standard in Philadelphia. Mr. Thomas of Colon: We need a broader educational system in Colon. Those representing the Hon. Marcus Garvey, have done it so ignorantly, that it has made it bad for us in our section. Employment is growing very bad in that section. Today, we find the white people are making petitions to the American government to bar the Negro in Colon from getting a job in the Canal. Conditions in general need to be changed. TO POLITICAL DEATH TO RACE SUICIDE RONALD GREENWOOD LA Christian from Columbus, Ohio: The economic situation in my section is growing very bad. All the positions are being given to the foreigner. Negroes can only get jobs as digging the ditches. Socially the Negro is faring pretty good. Politically, well I can't say much for that, as I take no part in it at all, as I look forward to the time where we can govern that part ourselves. Mrs. Laura Johnson from Baltimore: Political conditions in Baltimore is a serious problem. We have Dance-Picnic AT GOLDEN C ROBIN, All Day S August 31 ALL DIVISIONS IN IND ARE INVITED The day's events will open Music will be furnished by the Orchestra—added feature, at your pleasure.

WRIGHT Treasurer, JAMES BRINKLEY LD WHEN REPE not yet learned to stop selling our votes, especially among the women. Social standing, there is not much to be said about that. The people are not divided into so many sections as they are here. The Blackman in Baltimore is a Negro, no matter what completion he is. Our leaders are generally the press here. We have a great many schools that turn out many educated young men and women. The working condition is the same everywhere. Mrs. Fields from East St. Louis: Negroes in that section not educated along political lines. People elect a man according to his party, and not the man himself. We are trying in St. Louis to educate the people to vote for the man and not look at the party to which he belongs. To get a political job it depends upon the fellow who can hood-wink his people. The educational system of our people is very good. The Urban League is training the women to housekeep, etc. Solomon Smith of Cuba: Reported that the condition in Cuba was the worst of anywhere he has heard yet. Negroes can hardly earn their own bread in Cuba. We can only work three months out of the year to earn a Nivelihood. Educational system worst than anywhere, for when a parent is unable to train their children, they cannot go anywhere to learn sufficiently. Mr. U. Bright from Guatemala: (Mr. Garvey): The condition that exists in Cuba is the condition that the convention would like to know of. We are desirous of making improvement where our people are suffering. Mr. Bright continues: We have no political status in Guatemala. Economically we are very bad off. Mr. Fannin: In New York 85 per cent of the Negroes wealth is invested in churches. All his energy is taken up in the church. Mr. Thurston from Miami: Educationally the Negro is not so bad in Miami. We could be worse. Economically we are very poor. Three months we work, nine months we do nothing. Socially we are progressing very nicely. Mr. Smith from Costa Rica: Economically we are very bad off. Black Negro girls can find nothing to do, majority of workers are union workers. Hutchinson of Panama: Socially, we have not got much to complain of. The Negro in Panama has no freedom. Mr. Garvey: It is apparent that there is dissatisfaction nearly all over from which the delegates have come. In places such as America, the dissatisfaction is generally a politically one. Generally our people are without employment. Cuba is starving. In America, as far as the delegates have explained, the Negro is without political protection. I sincerely hope that you will get the seriousness of these reports and carry them throughout the convention, so that we, when it comes to legislation, can do so intelligently. Those who reported favorable conditions of the Negro in their sections have somewhat surprised me. I thought we came from the sections, where Negroes were in need, if you are not telling the truth your people will surely get a hold of you when you return. I sincerely hope that you get together and summarize intelligently the condition of the people. Give us concrete information that we want to intelligently help those who are in need. Dr. Peters: I suggest that we select intelligent ones whom we feel know the situation and can discuss same. I move that the Hon. W. A. Wallace be allotted one-half hour tomorrow morning to discuss the industrial situation in America, and make suggestions thereto. Mr. Leonard Smith of Detroit, mo- Eric-Barbacue GATE PARK N, ILL.

At Edelweis Park Delegates Tell of Political And Economic Conditions Where They Come From The 7th business session of the U. N. I. A. Convention was held postday at Bidwell Park commencing at 10:30 o'clock. Immediately after the proceedings, Mr. Marcus Carvey, the president-general, announced that he had to go to Court that morning, and asked that the session be adjourned. This was agreed to, and the session adjourned accordingly. The convention resumed at 8:18 P. M. when the president-general provided. There was a large turnout of delegates and others interested in the movement. Mr. J. A. Craigson of Detroit asked for personal privilege which was given. Mr. Craigson spoke at length on the work which he had done for the organization at Detroit and said that he was not in any cities that come to Jamaica with the intention of having the headquarters of the organization transferred to New York. The present-general asked Mr. Craigen several questions regarding the U. N. I. A. and the U. N. I. A. incorporated to which he replied stating that he had the interest of the organisation at heart and would never be a party to anything that would spell rule for the movement. The session then adjourned until 7 P. M. Evening Meeting The evening session opened with band selections by the U. N. I.

Help Us To Help You The Negro World takes this opportunity of extending its sincere thanks and admiration to the many readers that have sent in letters expressing their appreciation for the general appearance of our paper. Believe us, we are really trying our utmost to make a regular paper of the Negro World. As you know, ours is a propaganda medium published in the interest of the awakened Negro. Our slogan is Africa for the Africans at home and abroad. Although this is our aim, we want to make our paper so that it may appeal to everybody. Now in order for us to be able to do this it will be necessary to have funds at our disposal. Please bear this in mind, that the Negro World belongs to the race. Why? Because it champions their race. On this account money that would come to us through other channels does not. So it is no more than I might that whoever we are in need, "Greatly in Need," that we should appeal to you, our disease well-wishers. Therefore, beginning with this week we are learning a To raise money for the purpose of producing a more convenient paper. The editorial and business departments are working hard in hand in order to give you what you should have. So please help us by doing all you possibly can. Send in whatever you can afford to help put over this drive. We will pick up the names of Distributors, Shipmen, or Employees that contribute in the Mega World each week. So something and let them send about it. We must also learn from the experiences of our children, and the hear in unmistakable fashion the dazzling tails of the Vale of Impatience spitting to us Magnae, whatever on earth we may dwell; singing no earnest, forward, upward, to the great tails at hand, to the achievement of the darts the line of which mankind has never attained to before, to the carving out for ourselves, of a destiny that is best suited to our own development, and the development of our children's children. The blood surges in our veins, our throats grow hoarse with emotion; our spirits grow bold, and we feel again the courage of our fathers rise up in our hearts; our pulses beat faster; our backbones stiffen, our eyes flash, our nerves grow taut, and the spirits of our great ancestors pass in inspiring and quickening fashion before our mental vision, and passing through that great drama, we go forth under the skies of the new day which has dawned in the Twentieth Century, sweeping to be men or die. Unchangeable in our declaration; unfilching from any form of prosecution, or of persecution, for that master, the Negro race moves forward today, resolved to conquer or to die. And we shall not die till we have accomplished that which the Great Spirit of Infinity has commissioned us to go forth to do. We shall not falter in the face of any crisis, or in the sea of crises that may seem to engulf us. Purged by years of oppression and hardship, the Negro, bursting his bonds today, emerges upon the plains of God a free man and king in his own right, the master of his own fate, the captain of his soul. Neither floods, flames, persecution, prosecution, perils, trials, death, hell, torments, or the grave will quell the Negro's cry for freedom. Let lightning flash, and cannons roar. Ethiopia shall be free, and we shall sail our gallant ships on every rolling sea. Because of the divinity of the purpose which impels the Negro to go forward today, under the rays of the sunlight of the new day which has dawned in this the Twentieth Century, his spirit cannot be tamed by any man-made device. Because of the invincibility of the soul of the Negro there is no power on earth, or in the waters under the earth that is going to be able to intimidate him, or turn him from his goal. Every force in creation, every atom in this universe serves as a lever and a fulcrum to lift the Negro and his race from the sloughs of despond, to occupy a place in the very scheme of things, decreed by the Great Creator of the Universe Himself. "I am that I Am" has spoken. He holds the worlds in the hollow of his hands. He has called us to rise from degradation and despair, and face the sun and all creation. Taking Jehovah at his world, we move forward, today, to serve him in our own, peculiar way, to mould our own destiny, and to free our fatherland. And heaven knows, "The Negro Race is Ready." Undeterred by the iron hands of unkind powers, and the scorpion-fails of inhuman overlords, we are more prepared for the fight against oppression than mankind has ever been prepared before. The time for temporizing is past. Henceforth it is forward. There is no longer any room, any reason for Negroes to fear. Why should Negroes fear? Does not Infinity speak for us, urging us on, and up? Does not every force of creation impel us to move forward with precision and a determination that has never marked the advance of any race before? Fear is for cowards and for cravens. Negroes have brave souls and stern hearts, strong muscles, and an undying, invincible spirit, and Fate is calling. "LET AFRICA BE FREE" is the legend written on the skies. "LET THE GREAT RACE OF NEGROES RISE" comes the undying, insistent call of Infinity. Quickened to action, the Negro breaks his bonds asunder, hails all creation, and re-echoes the cry, so that all the world can hear: "THE NEGRO MUST BE FREE," "AFRICA MUST BE REDEEMED." Thirsting with a deep, unassisted desire for a new and larger freedom, burning with eagerness, for the carrying out the commands of destiny, impelled by Fate, and inspired and rejuvenated by the visions of the great and noble ancestors of a race that taught mankind the way to live, as they pass in spiritual vision before us in our aspiration, we move out, unafraid of crises, undaunted by death, unfinching from the grave, yes, we move forward to the realization of our hopes; to the freedom of the race, and the redemption of Africa. Nerved by the Great Good Father of all Creation, we step out boldly to carve out a new destiny in a new age, in a brighter and better day, in a grander century than earth has seen before, vowed to "Victory, or to Death"; and we shall not falter, nor can we fail. And looking with prophetic vision down the years as they come and go, all creation rises up and tells us that "this great race of Negroes shall not die," "TILL AFRICA IS FREE."

XXVL. NEW YORK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 24, 1929 No. 3 DOES YOUR ANCHOR HOLD? SHIPS must cast their anchor so that they can take firm hold to help them from drifting, and from being tossed about, when they come to port; and in certain ways people are like ships. Since we are Negroes; and we feel that we have not had the opportunities that we ought to have had; and since, in this new day, in this new era, we are emerging upon the plains of God, preparing for a great journey on the ocean of life, it behooves us to see that we have must shear anchors, that will hold us safe and secure, in the storm, as well as in the calm. There must be no drifting when the ship comes into port, or has sapped at sea to ride out a storm. Her anchors must be depended on to hold her fast, so that she may be safe from harm. In like manner, the ship must stop its drifting habits, and provide itself with strong, must shear anchors, that will hold alike in storm as in calm. These anchors must be strong enough to hold us, to prevent our roving tenderness, when we are struck by the waves of adversity. They must take them hold in the ground below, and keep us from drifting into danger. We must make our position safe. Now that the Negro ship has sighted the land, the land of opportunity, the land of achievement, the land of expression; now that we have seen with clear vision than we have ever had the opportunity to see before, it is time to begin to get on ranchors ready, so that when we cast them they may take firm hold of the ground below. With all the inspiration that is ours today; with all the determination that surges on on; with all the thirst for a fuller and freer expression of life in all its mornings, it is time to get our anchors out. Those anchors must hold, this race so that drifting will cease, so that we will cultivate steady habits, so that there will be no danger of striking obstacles during the dark periods of the night of life, so that we be safe when the storm is past. The anchors we need will be manhood, qualities that will not flinch in the hour of danger, that will not tremble in the presence of God himself; that will not turn aside from meeting any consequence, no matter what its import. Also this race must develop a vitality and a virility that shall be sufficient to take us uncathed through all the dangers of life. We also shall need financial strength, for this is one of the most essential anchors we shall have need of, situated as the world is today. The time may come when something other than gold and silver will be the medium of exchange, but until that time comes Negroes the wide world over, just like other men, will have imperative need for an abundance of money, for the providing the means of carrying out all the plans we formulate. We shall have need of money for investments in land. We must anchor ourselves on the land wherever on earth we may happen to be. Negroes must learn the lesson that the land is the surest basis of wealth; and then, having learnt the lesson, must set out to own as much of the land anywhere, as it is possible to own. When this great lesson is learnt we shall be a great way forward on the road to the successful carrying out of all our dreams. We must by legitimate means get money from every angle. We must educate ourselves in the various lines of business. We must educate our children, and our children's children in all the arts and avenues of the commercial world. We must begin at once to rear Negro business enterprises that will be a model for efficient and honest and sound business management. We must develop all the adroitiness and the foresight of the successful business man of the other races. We must profit by the failures and mistakes of others. We must know business from every angle. We must seek and find out all there is to know about all avenues of business and then reduce our findings and our knowledge to practical use, so that we may be able to secure the money anchor that, added to the other sheet anchors of a well rounded character, will be great safeguards against dangers and drifting in the battle for bread. We must rise now, today, and begin, small though our capital may be. Individually we may have but small resources, but collectively we can form a strong force in the business world that will command respect; and what is more, the money anchor of life, like the character anchors, has a way of increasing in size and in power till the owners are almost perfectly safe. That farmer or backyard gardeners is counted zillions and驳辱 who permits the weeds to overrun his fields and gardens to rob the crops and products of their nourishment. Even city folks, who buy their food from the markets, know that the cultivated crops and vegetables cannot compete with the devouring weeds and that the farmer and gardener are given the cultivated plants to fight their battle for them — California Eagle. The History of American Prosperity may correctly be called the History of Marketing. During the earlier years of the century the emphasis in the business world was on the production end. Now, the emphasis has passed to marketing. No matter how fine a product is, no one will buy it unless it is crammed down their throats with advertisements. Because of the great things that the hearts of the Negro Peoples of World are set upon accomplishing let us take these words into consideration, and carry them into actual reality, so that this race may be provided with such sheet anchors, that will be able to hold safe in the most terrific storm, and keep us from drifting on the mercy of the winds and waves of other men's whims and caprices. Fellow Negroes--DOES YOUR ANCHOR HOLD? Ada in magazines, on billboards, in newspapers, over the radio, in pamphlets and countless other ways, have made us scared to go to bed without brushing our teeth. Toothpaste manufacturers are more interested in selling toothpaste than making it. Palmolive soap has become a national necessity because the manufacturers hammered incessantly on a wide-eyed public that it was the best soap obtainable for the price and would even keep that schoolgirl compulsion.—The Enterprise, Washington. WHEN THE CRISIS COMES CERIOUS-MINDED men and women all over creation, weighing the powers new transpiring, must come to the conclusion that the Negro man is free to face, not only with a crisis, but with a series of crises. If there ever was a time in the history of the human race, when a race of men were called upon to be men, to toil the hardest, to show their true nature, involve an exhibition of the sternness of their souls, and to display the qualities that make for true manhood, qualities that make men understand the respect and admiration of the men of other nations, by training themselves in the annals of history, so that the men of the nation shall with pride, at their deeds of daring, and take the responsibilities that come to them is now. "To the soil!" should be a slogan for many of our group. Among other things that have kept the colored race from enjoying the many blessings of real freedom is their inability to realize the injustice which has been directing their minds in many ways. For hundreds of years, the Rare has been taught to look upon white as an emblem of purity and that all goodness must come from some white course. But young generation is thinking differently, and some of the older beginners as well—The Fountain Adventure. It was proved that Nobile as commander had allowed himself to be saved while his subordinates were left to die in their bed of ice. A commission appointed by Mussolini finds that Nobile was not true to the highest traditions, and he who went in search of fame returned in disgrace! Why? Because as leader he put his own safety before that of those he led. This is the crime of crimes! Leadership is dangerous! Nobile was disgraced because he escaped while others were in danger. Real leadership means to be the first in danger and the last to safety. Very few are willing to pay such price. Real leaders are scarce!—St. Luke's Herald. Garvey at the Helm By MRS. C. STEER I will sing you a song Of that great Afric land— That far-away home, not so far, Where the storm always beats, On the banks of the Nile, White Garvey holdeth the Helm in his hand. Our pearls, our gold, our diamonds, Have been robbed by alien races from far. But the time is now ripe. And we say this with pride. That Garvey holdeth the Helm in his hand.

Dear Sir: Will you allow me space in your wonderful journal, that I might be able to call the attention of some Negroes that are yet sleeping! Wake up, Negroes! for now is the acceptable time to awake out of sleep. For is' these many hundred years past Negroes were drooping in darkness, not realizing that we are a race, as well as any other race under the sun. Not having the first thought that we are to have a government, to protect us as a race, as other races have. But may I now say while we were in sin, Christ came and died that if we believe in Him and His doctrine, we shall be saved from our sin, and receive our salvation. Now, here comes the cry of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and A. C. L., constituted by the Hon. Marcus Garvey. It is a cry which Negroes the world over must hearen if they are to be saved. N is the cry of the swamped Negroes. Therefore, come on fellowmen. Let us rally to the call of the U. N. L. A. and A. C. L. For Africa must be redeemed and the race of Negroes must be emancinated. To the Editor of The Negro World: Please allow me space in your valuable paper to say to those Southern Democrats, who seem to be belly aching because Mrs. Hoover invited Ms. DePriest to tea, which was perfectly in order. Mrs. DePriest had the same right to be invited as any of the other Congressmen's wives. In those Southern Democrats and all other disgruntled would put in more time attacking themselves for associating with our negro women, in the darkness and behind closed doors, they would be more creditable to their group, and we would have a purer and healthier group. We are tired of them throwing their trash in our back yard. There was not a more healthy group than ours, before they tainted our blood with their disease. We are proud of our blood because it is the richest blood on earth. It only takes one drop to make us a negro, while it takes one hundred per cent to make any other group desired. SARAH L. DANIELS. Chicago, Illinois. Editor. The Negro World: Just permit me space in the column of your valuable paper to congratulate Prof. J. A. Rogers for his soul counseling articles of facts on genuine Negro history. My dear Prof. Rogers: To me you are one of the most useful Negroes of the present day. You have taken up an invaluable task—a task of teaching your race the real facts about its famous history. The medium through which all races is being guided upward and onward even to the path of glory. The Negro gets real benefit from such inspiring articles. They make him feel that he is a man as any other man and is of more use to the world and humanity than most men. These are the teachings the youth of the race should get instead of being victims of illegitimate literature. The results most beneficial to the Gods notwithstanding. I remain, Sir. Yours for racial consciousness. ALARIC T. WELSH. Cuba. Hon. Marcus Garvey, the First Exponent of the "New Diplomacy" While scanning the contents of the extremely interesting column submitted by our "Provisional Secretary of Foreign Affairs," Mr. Arden Bryan, the following extracts were especially impressive. In this day, of open diplomacy, it is no use to say one thing and mean another, and, after all, Marcus Garvey himself, is the first Apostolic of the new diplomatic gospel. It is about time we tell the whole white world that we are bitter, and blooming well dissatisfied, and that nothing short of a founding of a strong central Negro government in Africa will satisfy us. Decelt is not only wrong but it is contemptible. I hate it, and the beat minds of the Negro hate it. Such declarations merit the whole-hearted endorsement of the 400,000-000 black peoples of the world. They hit the mark. Truly, has our great leader blamed the trail for the new diplomacy of open discussions. He has stood unalterably for the Truth, which needs no sacriety. He has waged an attack upon hypocrisy. Hes, and camouflage, which has won the admiration and respect of his bitterest enemies. Not only has he brought light and understanding to his own race; but the whole world is today undergoing a rigid reformation of its social, industrial and political affair. When first he come upon the sons they and he was empty; or his success grew and his follower increased, they labeled him as a deuteromann or priest; then when such adduces failed of their purpose, they now rejoice to him as a "demoness person." Cowardly, that they—when he was made to enter possession at their expense, publicity was suspended; but they when his success happened the behalf of his friend obliterated, so mournfully, that he recovered him through the power that enabled merely liberation our devoutness of possession—didn’t. The prudence of the monarch is not beginning to affect himself, his children, by his devoutness. names which no living and in living names which no living and in living names or estimate the beginning thereof. Define it to say, that he was the first to compound the adjective and phrase of the nightly, and to group such parties in necessarily consider the "baiting of their wounds into plumbers." LONG LIVE MARCUS GARVEY! ARTHUR S. GRAY. Los Angeles, Calif. Allow me space in our noble journal, The Negro World, which is so uncompromisingly championing the cause of Universal Negro Emancipation and African Nationalism. I bag to commend our dews of journalism, R. T. Brown, on an article appearing a few weeks ago entitled "No Retreat," which is very impressive. I am conceived enough to feel that there isn't a Negro who read that article carefully, and did not feel somewhat more inspired towards Negro ennacipation, or did not make a stronger resolution to press forward and onward in this march towards Nationhood. I have been scanning through one of a series of articles now appearing in the "Interstate Tattler," dealing with Garveyism, which had this to say in one of its paragraphs: "Garvey opposes any movement which tries to bring about understanding between black and white people." Well, in my opinion what other understanding is needed when the white man has made it clear that the Negro is but an inferior being in his opinion; our educated, professional scientific and other men to the contrary notwithstanding? I. like Garvey, feel that all that is left for the Negro now is to either admit his inferiority or prove beyond a doubt that he is the equal of any man through the channels of "nationhood," and "industry." This is exactly what the U. N. L. A. is endeavoring to teach the four hundred million Negroes of the world at this time. In conclusion I beg to make it clear that this is a movement of 600 million Negroes, and not the "Garvey movement" that some folks are tempted to style it. Negroes everywhere had a spark of this identical spirit, but lack the "gutr" and genius to tackle it, "till Garvey came. Now that Garvey is here he built the castles in the air, laid the foundation under them, so it's now up to the 400 millions of us, as Negroes, to build for our children, and their posterity. Thanking you for space. Yours for the cause Afric. L. M. JACKSON. Carveyism Harveyism, the Religion Of New Negroes of this age. Has caused a great revision Of learning at this stage. It teaches that the African At home and all abroad. Are not divided, but are one According to God's word. It tells us that since God is white, He also can be black.

(F) I Drove O Trust R Strive TH Drive In relations within the constitution most so the name to the European Foreign Relations Department to the national Congress of Washington, New York that department, it must also have full editorial over all diplomatic and external relations Africa. Congress ought to create such a department. Such an office would undoubtedly enhance the work and dignity of the movement, and make good our destination of the existence of the Provisional Government of Africa. If, in spite of timely necessity, the above is evaded, then it will be plain to the world, that the entire leadership is unable, criminal, unfit, and ought to get out and give way to healer mortal. If Africa is to be redeemed, if that is our objective, then we must act in accordance with our high calling, and unavailably, lay the foundation for the redeemation of the entire black continent. Cost what it may, such a department must be created and maintained on a par with the great foreign effect of Europe and the world. Now, let Congress get to work and find ways and means for the establishment, and to keep alive, actively, such an essential department of government. After that, it would be wins, to serve notice upon the world that the convention formed limit into an all African Congress, and declare the existence of a provincial African government. Give Garvey a chance to put into practical effect the program and cause he has no nobly fought for. Elect him as President-General and Provisional President of Africa. Act in accordance with the dictates of your conscience. Don't censure with anyone to rob anybody out of office because of lines or clothes. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Remember! You must at all cost establish a Foreign Relations Department. It is highly imperative; that is, if in reality we mean to carry out our African program.

Convention Biggest Mr. Garvey announced that that was the last session at which report could be allowed and other business could be dealt with in future. Mr. Johnson of Nassau spoke on the educational condition of the Schenan. Education was not what it should be for although they had 120 schools there were many who were growing up in ignorance. The Negroes there had not the spirit of co-operation and everyone wanted to be leaders. He also spoke of religion and with regard to the industrial situation it was the worst on record for wages had dropped from 6/ to 4/ . Housing conditions were bad but the people did not seem to be interested. What the Negro needed was finance to help cultivation. He hoped the convention would consider the founding of a financial institution in Kingston and a branch at Nassau. Mr. Shelton of Kansas City spoke on the conditions of the Negro industry. He said that when the Negro applied for a job there, he was told to apply to Marcus Garvey. It was ume that the Negro got a place in the sun. The white race had called their international convention in Europe and he thought there would be a colored people's convention. In Kansas there were thousands obless and he thought there were also far too many chn. He hoped that they would be able to find some scheme to benefit the people of Kansas City and the labor situation there. The greatest problem was to take the mind of the Negro off the heavens and bring it to earth. Virginia Delegate Mr. S. B. Rowe, West Virginia, spoke of education in that part of the world. They had some five schools, some of the best that could be found in America. Things looked bright and prosperous there and he expected a big movement when he got back. He spoke on industries and said that the mines had been closed, and the mining people were seeking jobs in the city and that was making things hard. Mr. Buchanan of Port Antenio spoke of conditions there. Politics there seemed to be serving only one class. Conditions were very bad. At BILL "Bujangler" Robinson will head an All-Star cast. Rudy Vuille of radio fame will be one of the featured artists. At the New Douglas Tuesday and Wednesday, "The One Woman Idea" with Red Le Rocque and Marcolline Day.

Thursday and Friday, "Black Magic" with Josephine Dunn, John Holland and Barbie Pus. Territorian, witch-craft, strike at the hearts of two beauties, innocent daughters of a perilous father. Moore Town, and Comfort Castle, there were people there who could not make more than a dollar a week. People there were unable to get lands for development and so people were unable to earn a living. There are estates there which were not being used or cultivated. Mr. Ward of New Haven spoke of politics. There were three groups there and the result was that the Negro got nothing out of it. They had many big manufactures but the Negroes were the last to be employed and the first to be fired. Education was well taken care of. He believed that after the convention the people of New Haven would rise to an understanding of class consciousness. Mr. McLarty of Banes, Cuba, spoke of conditions in that continent which was dominated by the United Fruit Company. Wages during the crop were small and hardly enough to feed themselves much less their families of 10 and 12. After the crop man could not get work, for they were told that the jobs were for the natives. The poor people were suffering tremendously. Men willing and able to work were begging bread. Mr. Edwards of Havana also spoke of conditions there and said that economically the West Indian Negroes and the natives were in a bad condition. Jobs which the Negroes had held had been taken away from them and given to Spaniards and others. Wages had been reduced to a great extent. Other speakers addressed the meeting before it closed. THURSDAY, AUGUST 8 Thursday night the 8th of August will long be remembered by those who attended at Edelweis Park.

The feature photo-play will be "The Loves of Cannabis". At the Roosevelt First part of the week, "Close Harmony" with Charles "Buddy" Rogers and Nancy Carrol. Last part, Rintin-tin in "Frozen River" with Davy Lee, a picture containing love, romance, adventure and the most lovable little star of them all. Thrilling adventures in the frozen North. tion must be made of the recitation of Miss Lee and the anthem of the Kingston Division Choir. The young lady lost herself in the portrayal of Mark Antony's grief over the death of Checar, and his covered appeal to the people of Rome. The voices of the Kingston Choir blended very nicely in their anthem and showed a better grasp of the fundamental principles of musical expression and association than the much larger choir of the St. Andrew Division. The first speaker of the evening was Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, fourth assistant president-general. She was regaled in her robes of office and delivered a short but inspiring address. The next speaker was Madame M. L. T. DeMens, Assistant International Organizer of the U. M. L. A. She roused the audience to enthusiasm by her forceful appeals to the womanhood of our race to actise the present opportunities for services to the race and fall in line. She likened the struggles of the race to the American National game of base ball with the Hog. Marcus Garvey as the striker, and the present stage of the Negroes existence was the home run, and surely Marcus Garvey, the man of the hour, would make it. She was loudly and vociferously cheered as she regained her seat. The next speaker was Mrs. B. V. Robertson of Cleveland, Ohio. She told of the rise and fall of the organization in Ohio, and compared the present time to a train running against time to get to its destination. Vividia she portrayed the many ways she had stood by the organization, and intended to still stick by it until Africa was redeemed and 400,000,000 Negroes completely emancipated. Mrs. Gordon of Chicago was the next speaker, and she warned the men that if in the next five years they did not do the things they proposed to do the women would put on the uniforms and take over the control of the organization and do something. She was tired of talk and nothing unpleasant, and if the race was to be as ed, she felt confident the women of the race could and would contribute largely to it. The meeting terminated with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem. ... JAMAICA CRICKETERS WIN Defeat All-Brooklyn Team by 128 for 5 Wichita to 81 A picked team of Jamaica cricketers, reformed by G. Hedley and J. K. Holt, who arrived from Jamaica last week, defeated an All-Brooklyn team by 128 for 8 wickets to 81 at Commercial Field in Brooklyn yesterday.

No more, but our alone Weekly Illustrated Feature Section The Sensational Story of France's Greatest Colonial Fighter And The Negro King Who Sat On A Throne of Beaten Gold PRINCE CLAIMS THRONE P THE LIFE OF BERT WILLIAMS No. 11 . . Text by BEN DAYES, JR. Drawn by A. W. REINIGARSE (Continued from last week) As to the war with France in 1892, it is difficult to say just what brought it on. Some Dahomeyans say that Africa had been divided into spheres of influence by the European powers, that Dahomey had been given to France, and that France sought a present for conquest. Other sources say it was the desire of the French to penetrate into the interior for commerce, on the one hand, and the determination of Behannin on the other, to have them out. Bohanna Hard-Faced Again it may have been due to the fear and jealousy of King Tofa who had a difficult role to play between the British and the French. Perhaps also, it may have been due to fear of the French colonies near-by at staging Bohman, getting so powerful Germany had been supplying him with modern rifles and five Germans held high rank in his army. Then also it may have been due to Bohman's hard-headness and certainty of victory. In 1800 he had scored a victory over a French expedition and had made France pay him tribunal for the use of the part of Cotton. He was stronger now and perhaps he felt he could repeat the performance. It perhaps may have been due to a combination of all those causes, but whatever it was, war begins when Delahunan is asked to have declared the treaty he had made with France until and void. This treaty, coding Cotesnes to France, had been made in 1808 by his father, Gil-Gil and ratified in 1809. France agreeing to pay 20,000 francs gold annually for the use of the port. Delahunan, it is said, set all intermittent aside. Diplomacy failed. When the French envoy arrived at his palace of Dienne with presents from M. Dienne, secretary of Cotesnes, it is said that Delahunan and them bade honour, and said accordingly, "We have cause full of that in Delahunan." When told of the system of the French government, it is said that he took his pipe from his mouth and laughed loud and long, saying that he much preferred his own which was quicker and more original. "Dahomey," he asserted, "has never ceded Cottenou to France, and if the French do not get out at once I will come and drive them out with my army." Double Chance War began shortly after, and in the first few engagements Behanzin was victorious. France realised that she had a difficult enemy to deal with. To march into Dahomey with its absence of roads, its thick forests, swamps, burning sun and lack of water was not easy. There was but one man capable of the task, the veteran General Dodda. On May 5, 1892, he left Bordeaux with several companies of white marines, a company of artillery and a battalion of black sharpshooters. Stopping at Senegal, he picked up other battalions of Sonagalese sharpshooters and got five hundred warriors and thousands of bearers from King Tofu. Arriving off the Dahomey coast, he blockaded it with his warships and prevented the landing of a ship filled with arms and ammunition for Behanzin calling on him to surrender. But the latter played defensively: France wishes war! Let her know that I am stronger and more determined than my father. I have never done anything to France that she should make war on me. I have never gone to France either to take the wives or daughters of the French. If they wish to take the seacant I will cut down all the palm trees. I will poison them. If they have not what to eat let them go elsewhere. Every other nation, German, English, Portuguese can come into my kingdom. But the French I will drive them away. I am the friend of the whites; ready to receive them when they wish to come to see me, but prompt to make war whenever they wish. On this, General Dodds ordered a bombardment of the Dahomey coast, and landing a few days later. captured and burned the town of Cottenon. Starting into the interior, he captured the towns of Zobo and Takoe Early in the morning of September 19, a part of the Dahomeyna army hurled itself with terrific fury against the French. Opening the attack with a volley from their repeating rifles, they rushed in with their awards and knives aboutting their battle cry of "Kala! Kola! Dahomey!" Minces and Whites Together But General Dodds well knew that it was the habit of the African warrior to attack early in the morning. He was ready. The black and the white men in his force received the enemy with shot and bayonet. The Dahomeyans, beaten back, returned with incredible eagerness to the charge, but the French, bringing their guns into action, forced them to retreat, leaving hems of dead. It was evident that it was going to be a stubborn fight to get to Abomey. Behanzin's capital. A few days later, stiff fighting took place at Dogba. Here General Dodda, who always fought beside his men, had one of them killed at his side. Dakomcyana Deadly So far the French had been meeting only detachments of Behain's army. The main portion with the king himself was at Ilida. Marching thither, Generally Godds lost may of his men. The Dahomeyans, from the tops of palm trees, would shoot down the French or crawl through the bushes to throw themselves courageously on the foe. At Ait Houpe, during a Sirce storm, a force estimated at 7,000 warriors and 2,000 amassons hurled itself at the French. The women fought with supreme courage, letting themselves be killed rather than retreat. Clagging to the legs of the French troops they brought them to earth and poignarded them. . . . Says an eye-witness of that fight: "The Dohaneyans showed a tenacity and bravery unheard of. But their dash was broken by the discipline and the unerring marksmanship of the Senegalese sharp-shooters. The entrance to the fort bore witness of the rage with which the Dahomeyans fought. . . It was heaped with the corpse of men and women warriors." At Puguauss, General Dodds came up with the main position of the Dahomeyan army, commanded by the king in person. It numbered some 10,000 warriors and had ten field pieces. But here again, after three hours of terrific combat the Dahomeyans were forced to retreat under the artillery fire and the machine guns. Nevertheless, some of the amazons succeeded in reaching to within ten yards of the French squares. Gericana Captured Four of the five German captains in the Dahomey army were taken prisoners, and were at once ordered shot by General Doits. At Djebe and Kenn, the Amazons again fought to the last moment, some of them falling dead almost at the very feet of the French. But again it was the old story of primitive men going down before civilized ones, in spite of the former's valor and persistence. A few days later, General Doits captured Dioxane, Behain's largest palace. Boharin Dealrea Peace By this time Behahn desired peace. Not only had he been fighting the French but two of his neighbors as well, the Egbaan and the Genus. He sent three envoys to General Dodder, offering to pay an indemnity of $1,000,000 and to yield all the customs duties of the port of Cotouen. He also sent presents of cattle, gold and two silver hands of superb Dahom-yan work, bidding General Dodder take one of the hands and cross it with his own in sign of friendship. In return General Dodd sent biscuits and conserves and said he was willing to make peace on condition that Behahn permit him to host the French flag in his capital at Abo- Bohaina promptly refused and the fight went on. After a stiff battle, the French captured Abomey, but they found only rules; for on retreating, Bohain had set fire to the town, destroying his palace with its wonderful art treasures. Gold Throne Unarmed His throne of beaten gold was unimagined, however. Later this was given to King Toffa, in recognition his loyalty. With Behanin now in sight, General Dadds named his brother, Agoli Agho, king in his place and told the Dahomeyans that henceforth they more under the protection of France. With order restored, he sailed for France. But hardly had he got there when news came that Behanin, gathering more men, had started the war again. Roberta Arnold Rested Returning, he again defeated Behanin and on January 24, 1894, with the last remnant of his army gone, Behanin tracked like a wild beast, walked coolly one morning into the French camp, his long pipe in his mouth and gave himself up to Captain Prive. The latter gave him a glass of rum which "he drank as an ordinary mortal." He was instantly sent to the coast from where he was shipped to France. He was later sent into exile in Martinique, French West Indies. For many years he sought permission to return to his native land. This was promised but never granted. He was at last permitted to live in Algeria where he died at Bieda in 1906, at the age of 65. In 1858, his son, Prince Guanilo Behanin, removed his body to Dahomey, he, himself, dying on the return trip to France. Prince Claims Throne A mahew of Behanzia by marriage, Prince Kojo Trovalou Housoui, claims the Dahomeyan throne. Prince Kogo showed this writer certified documents establishing his descent from the dynasty deposed by Behanzin's ancestors three centuries ago. Prince Kojo visited America some years ago. For his exploits General Dodds was given the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor, while the press and the nation sang his praise. Soon after he was made Inspector-General of the Marines, and after a tour of France, was given command of the 30th Army Corps. Later he was made Inspector-General of all the troops in the Colonies, and appointed a member of the Superior War Council. General Dodda Honored War threatening in Indo-China, he was sent there, being appointed Commander-in-Chief of the forces there. Some time later, he was retired. But with the coming of the World War and its great heroes, this man who had done more than any other for the conquering and securing of France's vast colonial empire, died aged 80, and was buried with great ceremony, Marshals Foch, Joffe, Petain and others being at his funeral. Aux Ecoutes, French journal, commenting on his death, said: "For many persons, General Dodds had been dead a long time. Few men having the reputation he had have been able to grow old in such forgetfulness. The war, evidently, brought many competitors to his fame." General Dodds Modest General Dodds, never spectacular, had no taste for public exhibitions, he led a very retired life. However, on July 14, 1910, when he was not limited to take part in the great prize of the soldier of the great war, he could not refrain from saying: "They have forgotten me a little too much." His widow is still alive in Paris. He was described as being tall with large shoulders, well-developed body, strong head with regular features, luxurious black mustache feeling thickly from the parting of the upper lip. His complexion was darker than that of the average mulatto from the tan of the fierce tropic suns. He was very popular with all his men, black and white. One secret of his success was his spirit of kindness and consideration for those under him. It may be noted here that the accident of birthplace played a great part in the fortunes of General Dodds.

My Dear Mrs. Jerome: I am eighteen and deeply in love and in trouble. My girl insists on going to dances and flirting with other boys. Now, I do not care for dancing and am very studious. I tell her she shouldn't act the way she does but them she gets angry and tells me she doesn't want to see me any more. This takes my mind off studies and upsets me till I persuade her to make up. I am trying to accomplish something and she keeps me in turmoil. Yet I love her. What shall I do? D. Y. The trouble is, D. Y., you've picked the wrong kind of girl for your nature. Most lovers stumble into love, and if it doesn't turn out well they feel thwarted and disillusioned. They feel it is a reflection upon themselves that they could not hold their love. It IS a reflection, but upon their intelligence, not upon their power to attract and hold love. And because of some unfortunate affair of this kind a man may develop an inferiority complex that will ruin his life. Pick a girl who has some tastes in common with your own, who wants the things you want out of life, so you can understand and help one another. That will solve your trouble, D. Y.

Oral Hygiene It is estimated that only about 20 per cent of the people give proper attention to the teeth, and while this estimate would seem to be low in view of the development of dentistry in this country, yet the fact remains that the vast majority of people are suffering in one way or another through lack of proper attention to this important matter. The situation may be remedied if only attention is called to Oral Hygiene. What is oral hygiene? The great clinician, Sir William Oeler, answered this query by saying it is one of the outstanding public health matters, the promotion of which will contribute more to disease prevention and better health than any other single health measure. Mouth hygiene is the proper care of the teeth, gums, tongue and other soft tissues of the oral cavity. A clean and healthy mouth is of foremost importance in the conservation of health and prevention of disease. It lessens the probability of catching communicable diseases, facilitates the development of symmetrical features, a normal voice and clear speech, and minimizes the chances of developing diseases of the tonsils and infections of the ear. The individual should visit the dentist and have his mouth carefully examined at least twice a year. would have been possible for him, as a Negro, is sergeant-major.

This is another instance in which an aliment is brought about primarily through the influence of civilization. From the mouth to the anus there is one continuous canal. The stomach is the largest receptacle for the masticated food. Its size and shape undergo variations in the same individual according as it is full or empty. Generally speaking its measurement is estimated at about twelve inches. The next structure in anatomical and physiological relationship to the stomach is the small intestine. Its length is about twenty feet. From the end of the small intestine to the anus the length is calculated to be five and a half feet and goes by the name of the large intestine. These structures with their enormous length are dextremely coiled up and symmetrically and securely tucked away in the abdominal compartment of the system. Through experimental investigation it has been demonstrated that a certain meal in traversing this circutous pathway took twelve hours from the mouth to the anus. It might be considered a normal process if the elimination of our ordinary food takes sixteen hours after indigestion. There are many causes in operation to offset a delay in elimination thus resulting in contourism.

HANDY (Continued from last week) "Beale Street, Beale Street!"—that was the next station on this jazz journey. Moving to Memphis, Tennessee, meant moving to Beale Street. Here he organized a band and orchestra employing fifty men. A man named Crump ran for Mayor. Handy wrote words and a tune. The words went "Mister Crump don't low no easy riders here." Mister Crump don't low no easy riders here; I don't care what Mister Crump don't low. I'm gwine to barl-house anyhow—Mister Crump can go an catch himself some sir!" companies had failed after giving notes amounting to thousands who banks discounted. Handy, not on made those notes good, he in addition paid back heavy loans from four cored banks in the South. Music deserts and syndicate stores felt the same national depression. Then the fixtures and ten cents stores indulged in a music war. Woolworth cut out more than six hundred music counters. These counters handled the firm's publications, approximately a half million copies of music were left on Handy's hands, copier that could be sold for junk on which large printing bills were due. But the blues he an honest man for father. He so beautiful his beauty. The tune was that of the "Memphis Blues," which Handy published, but soon after, in despair, sold. The first real blues, it became an international hit, and still makes money for all but its author. He knew its commercial value, but Memphis was not then a market for music, and besides would not at that time buy sheet music from a local colored publisher. After the success of the "Memphis Blues," which unhered in the present era of jazz, both races recognized his genius and lent encouragement. He then formed the Pace & Handy Music Company to publish subsequent blues in their original form as well as the hallads of Harry H. Pace. In Handy we have the combination, wretfully successful, of artist and business man. In addition to managing this business, Handy wrote music. He writes woods, music and orchestrations himself and to spare moments rehearses his band. Laminates on our part to heed the calls of nature to empty the bowel results detrimentally to health. This baleful habit is peculiar to those who occupy a sitting position and are of a fatty make-up. A fasty diet depending as to whether it is too corse or too fine also plays its part in bringing on the diarrhe. The muscular tone of the intestinal wall may be unfortunately lost. To propagate the species does not always terminate favourably. The repetition of pregnancy causes the abdominal muscles to be somewhat weak and the ability to perform their function as additional force in the act of defecation is limited. In our busy review we shall no forget to mention that infants are sometimes affected with constipation. The cause might be due to the constitution of the mother, but in the majority of cases the fault lies wholly with the child. The mother might change her own diet as a trial. In those that are artificially fed ordinary drinking water, barley water might be given to them. Kassage along the colon and train the infant to regulate habits. There are many individuals who are constipated for over long periods without the impairment of the general health. Debility, headache, fistle appetite, foul breath are met with. The mentality is dull and a marital change in the complexion is observed. Pollenous substances are constantly generated through the system. Piles are common. The lining of the intestinal tract consists of delicate structures and harsh measures should not be adapted for the relief of constipation. The advertised cures are generally harmful. Simple moderate exercises should be tried. Message along the colon as in the case of the infant. Drink freely of water and aerated mineral waters. A glass of water on retiring and one on rising should not be dispensed with, an enema might be necessary. If simple measures fall then seek efficient advice, because the existing condition might warrant a specific treatment. companies had failed after giving notes amounting to thousands which banks discounted. Handy, not only made those notes good, he in addition paid back heavy loans from four colored banks in the South. Music dealers and syndicate stores felt the same national depression. Then the fire and ten cents stores indulged in a music war. Woolworth cut out more than six hundred music counter. As these counters handled the firm's publications, approximately a half million copies of music were left on Handy's hands, copier that could not be sold for junk on which large printing bills were due. But the blues had an honest man for father. He sold his beautiful home on 139th Street and paid off many of the debts. In attempting to do the work that had been done by a large organization, work in which no Sunday was his own and no hour of the night too late, his health was impelled as well as his sight. Two years he was kept inactive. But even in this period he continued to compose some of his most beautiful works—not all blues. Business was in a bad way. Life, too. At the end of those two miserable years Hardy staged his grand comeback. Nobody knows how. He regained his health and his sight, took a band on the road, and returned with money sufficient to liquidate what debts remained. By paying, and paying, and straining every nerve, he was able singlehanded to lift this great burden from his business.

No solamente los miembros de nuestra organización, quienesientemente patrocinan la sabia dirección del honorable Marcus Garvey, sino nuestra raza negra en general se encuentray día en el cruce del camino del destino humao. Hemos llegado al punto en nuestra existencia cuando tenemos que demostrarque somos hombres capaces y acreedores al respeto y estimaciónde todos los demás hombres de la tierra. 1 Como nunca! En muchas ocasiones en los años venideros,os hombres de otras razas en el universo tendrán sobradaan para dar verdadera expresión a esa exclamación. Ellos habrán de ver entonces al negro ocupando el puesto que comohumanos le corresponde; tendrán la oportunidad de verque el negro puede realizar y a que altura de civilizaciónpuede llegar, luego de haber luchado tenazmente por el enaltecimiento de su propia raza. El mundo entero tendrá el placer de observar con gran sorreza el negro como nunca, viéndose obligado a juzgarle por sus años de civismo y no bajo el punto de vista del odio, de la malicia y del prejuicio. En la radiante luz de ese nuevo dia deoria, el esplendor, el valor de las realizaciones del negro tendrá al mundo la oportunidad de admirarle repitiendo la expresión de la actual convención: ¿Como nunca; como ella! No satisfecho con ser meramente un cargador de leña, el gro ha enviado su representante a la isla de Jamaica con el posito de deliberar y decidir el mejor curso que su raza de c guir, en sus anhelos por enaltecimiento y absoluta acipación. Se ha decidido a no soportar por mas tiempo limites del estrecho círculo de que ha sido rodeado, disiendose a salir de el a toda costa, para laborar su propio tir. vvivir la vida que la Madre Naturaleza ha determinado a roco ser humano. el negro progresista del presente está determinado en este de luz a llevar a vias de hecho los sueños y aspiraciones le animan, luego de haber sufrido con gran perseverancia mayor resignación, las múltiples igneminias de que ha sido eto durante los últimos trescientos años. En lo sucesivo incerra toda dificultad, todo obstáculo que se interponga a su so y escalará las montañas de oposición en la persecusión poder y de reconocimiento. Como nunca; como nunca! Tal será la exclamación que petirá un mundo admirado, cuando el negro, habiendo ven- dido todos los obstáculos que han retardado su avance, con la erdadera fe en sí mismo haya esclarecido el caimino hacia a libertad y su grandeza; y como un monumento de su valor, e su poder, de su iniciativa, de su ambición, haya creado un objero lo suficientemente fuerte que garantice y defienda derechos de la raza negra universalmente. Entonces repercutirá el eco al grito de, "Africa y el negro y libres para siempre." NEW! La civilización del presente signe a la fuente de los arribados del homenaje blanco, quien encantaban en eladentro del universo. En los dos difínes digita tamaocurridas, se la esferado en la difínes de plazas que la hagan duelo y se harán de todo le cruda. Prueba de su sufijo esta domestica en el hoche de que domestica actualmente a Europa, America, Australia, Nueva Zelandia y hecha por advirir el dominio abedete de Africa. El hombre blanco utilizado una gran agencia para hacer del mundo un alto donde el solamente pudiera dominar—las misiones cristianas. Rajo el antifaz de libertad religiosa, los adeptos a ella conquistaron la América y el mismo deseo de promulgar la doctrina de la hermandad humana. canoó la entrada funesta de Livingston en Africa, resultando de lo cual el establecimiento del hombre blanco en aquel costantino. La sociedad misiaria que envid a Livingston a estudiar el terreno en Africa, lo hizo con el objeto de prower a los espectadores ingleses con nuevos mercados para sus manufacturas y a los políticos con un nuevo campo para extendir sus dominios. Ellos no estan aún satisfiechos con haberse posesionado del Sur, Este y Ocate de Africa, sino que intentan penetrar en puntos que no han caido hajo las garras y bajo la influencia directa del gobierno de los blancos. En un discuro pronunciado por la mano de hierro del gibierno inglés en el Sur de Africa, al dar la bienvenida a una delegación de una sociedad missionera, dije entre otras cosas:—"Hemos sido considerados por los nativos como semiódes por varios siglos, pero tal consideración ya no existe; quizas así sea mejor. Yo creo en la vurtad, en la honestidad, en la sinceridad, y ningun hombre debe ser colocado en un pedestal más alto que aquel que legalmente le pertenecen."—No podemos pasar por desapercibida esa confession de parte de la mano de hierro en Africa. Tanto el como la fila de anglo-sajones que han penetrado en angol continente, han tratado siempre de impresionar a los nativos con su divinidad. Fetos paranitos humanos hicieron creer a los mativos africanos que eran seres solitarias, por lo cual los inocentes les veneraban en sumisión. Muy bien sabían que hacían mal al impresionar a los mativos de ese modo; sabían que engañaban a aquel pueblo inocente, y lo hacían con el único objeto de rolarle sus posiciones y finalmente reducirles a esclavitud. Pero gracias a la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra y a sus aventuras de diez años en Africa, el blanco se ha dado cuenta de que el negro ya no le venera como a un semi-dios. El hombre negro será induciblemente el ser más feliz en Africa, porque esta conpenetrado de que será una cuestión de tiempo cuando su continente le será restaurado, y los beneficios del robo y de la explotación que el blanco haya adquirido, serán perdidos como periló el pueblo romano su antigua gleria. Los intrusos y los exploitadores tienen naturalmente que sentirse in conformes, pues tarde o temprano tienen que devolver todo cuanto mal habido posean. Ellos saben muy bien que tendrán que ceder o sufrir los consacriones, porque el native africano progresista esta determinado a recuperar todo acquello que a él exclusivamente pertencece. Tal es el resumen total de la posición del hombre blanco en Africa, apesar de sus grandes esfuerzos para convertir aquel continente en otro campo para su raza. Para contrarrestar alli el engañio y la explotación, nuestra organización no solamente ha dado la voz de alerta, sino que también ha predicado la doctrina de libertad, de derecho y de democracia.

Returning to Jamaica, he called together his follower from the four corners of the earth to dream with him and plan for political and social freedom for the Negro, establishment of a universal social code, formation of a chain of Negro daily papers around the world, raising a fund of $000,000,000 in ten years, opening of Negro defense headquarters in the large cities of the world, organization of a new stewardship base, formation of planes for a Negro religious and a Negro church, and the appointment of a commission to the League of Nations.

State Mill Workers Saved Organizer NEW YORK.-Otto Hall, organizer for the Negro Race Congress might have been lynched but for the vigilance of white mill workers in Gaithonia, it was learned here when Organizer Hall told of his narrow escape recently. Hall, who was in North Carolina to help in the textile fight at the time when a Gastonia officer was killed during a clash at the tent colony, was returning from Bessemer City to Gastonia. Hearing that he was on the way back and that it was being planned to lynch him, a number of mill strikers broke through the police cordon thrown about the city and succeeded in warning him of the danger, rushed him to a railroad station forty miles away and sent him to his home here.

There was no speaker for the evening on account of the large number who were on the program; but the various persons called upon made the most of the time at their disposal; and stirred the audience to a high price of enthusiasm, and the warmth of feeling that pervaded the meeting could be sensed by anyone. When the program closed, and the gathering rose to sing the Ethiopian National Anthem, the building fairly quivered. It seemed as if the vast throng was leth to go when the closing program were said, and lingered on to hear more of the happenings "over there" in Jamaica.

You will, well, do the content in the way about it girls? I have not needed any pictures put, but I know they will be in them. There were three pretty ones at Liberty University Bibliography: Gregory Anna Dick, Merrimor Dixon, Grace Regan, Jeannah Mike Reynant. Do Pindy and several others. Now if these will send in their photos along with those that were set at Liberty, the judge would certi- tely go back before the content was even. It would be very funny to see girl go hold. Wouldn't it? Barry girl, because the boys must have their turn before they go back to school. How about it boys? Remember we are new Negroes, and we have certainly got to prove it to the old ones. On the mark! Let's go back! These are some answers to the questions asked two weeks ago. They are not correct, but I am giving the answer a chance to show his talent. Ed. Kiddie Kerner. New Mim Editor: Let me try to answer the questions they asked two weeks ago. (1) Q—What is the longest word in the dictionary? A—Perseverance. Because it solves all problems. (2) Q—Who is the greatest man in the world? A.—I can take pleasure in saying that Marvin Carver is the greatest man in the world. My reason for saying this is because I have been taught of Napoleon booking for the rights of Prunus, Bimarack Ser Georgiy, Tulipi Ser Rusya, Gladstone of England, and many more as George Washington of Amherst; but in all history I have never been taught, or read of one who sought to seek the equal rights for an entire race. I was taught that there were only two means. (3) Q.—What do you think of Marvin Carver? 15,000Cheeris Re-elect Mar By Accla Leader Seems to Have Hold on People; For $600, KINGSTON, Jamaica, B. W. L., (By Stell Correspondent, Associated Negro Press).—That it will take more time deportation from the United States to break the hold of Marcus Garvey on the members and destiny of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was manifested here when 15,000 delegates from four corners of the earth attending the international convention of the organization re-elected Garvey as their president and leader. The convention, which is the sixth, is being held in Edelweis Park and is one of the most colorful events ever witnessed here. Men clad in uniforms and beepmimed headgear and women in the uniforms of the "Black Cross Nurse" mill about the park, the convention, and participate in massmoth parade. The differences of the two factions, mainly in New York City, found their way to the convention but were squashed by the diplomatic ruling of President Garvey, when he refused to appoint delegates to committees, whom he knew and termed "undesirables." This move on the part of the president evidently proved to the assemblage that if there were factions in America as far as the convention was concerned the body was a distinct and powerful unit. In his message to the assemblage President Garvey emphasized the urgent need of men and funds.

A—The look was stained by Queen Elizabeth in the sixteenth century. She was the first to begin to another the Negroes abroad. Your obedient servant. GEORGE T. W. WARD, Central Verantin, Providence, Camaguny, Rep. de Cuba. This letter was sent to me from Phila, Pa.—Editor, Kiddie Korner. Dear Editor: This is to let you know that your cheerful words in the Kiddies' Corner are appreciated and eagerly looked forward to every week. I am proud that you are blowing Liberty's horn, and I see no reason why you should stand alone. I also am a student of Liberty University, and admit we had a pretty tight term last year; but that did not discourage us in the least. We are returning with more pop and vim to fight the battle to a finish. Someone must pave the way. Parents think of your children; and young people think of your future destiny. Africa is surely going to be redeemed, and the young Negroes must play their part well. You must first of all be educated in the doctrine of the Honorable Marcus Garvey, and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Liberty University is the training place for you. When our leader calls for young men and women will you be able to answer? Take a tip from me. Go to Liberty University this very year, and enjoy her cornbread, grits, gravy, peas and beans; and best of all, learn to fight for Negro Nationhood, and African Redemption. You're for the cause, GRACE ROGERS, Philadelphia. Spring Delegates Garcus Garvey Allamation Save Lost None of His ies; Outlines Need 100,000,000 world, men to carry on the administration work of the organization and for propaganda operation. The funds were necessary to prosecute the ambitious program formulated by the organization, and to promote the new Black Star Line. In his plea for the Black Star Line, the president said: "I am making a special plea for the support of the new Black Star Line. Our shipping program for 1929-1930 is an elaborate one, but we can only carry it out when the individual members of the race support it. If we must relieve the industrial stagnation of the Negro, you must supply us with the funds necessary to launch out into big industries through which we will employ the millions who are now thrown out of employment. "There is a great future in store for the Negro race of ours, but the future depends upon the action of the present. Let us pool our resources in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Let us for 1929-1930 subscribe at least 200 million dollars to help this organization put over its colossal program for the emancipation for our race, and the liberation of Africa." Rightly Directed Propaganda In our issue of Aug. 3rd, an article appeared in our columns, under the above caption. By accident in the make-up, we failed to give credit to the author, Mr. Alaric Walsh. We hereby make the correction. We trust Mr. Walsh will pardon the omission.—Editor. Jesus' invitation to follow Him means infinitely more than learning about Him and trying to live as He lived—it means real fellowship with Him, a talking and communicating with Him each day.

There will not be room enough for them and for others who seek with them to compete, and that is why we hear the cry of Egypt for the Egyptian, India for the Indian, Asia for the Asian, and we rejoice the cry of Africa for the African; those at home and those abroad. That is why we ask England to be fair, to be just and considerate; that is why we ask France and Italy, Spain and Belgium to be fair, just and considerate; that is why we ask them to let the black man restore himself to his own country; and that is why we are determined to see it done. No omnivore and no promise of good will will solve the problem. What guarantees have we, what lessons have we on the future that the man who treats us kindly today will perpetuate it through his son or his grandson tomorrow? Races and peoples are only safeguarded when they are strong enough to protect themselves, and that is why we appeal to the four Hundred million Negroes of the world to come together for self-protection and self-preservation. We do not want what belongs to the great white race, or the yellow race. We want only those things that belong to the black race. Africa is ours. To win Africa we will give up America, we will give up our claim in all other parts of the word; but we must have Africa. We will give up the white desire of having a seat in the White House in America, of having a seat in the House of Lords in England, of being President of France, for the chance and opportunity of filling these positions in a country of our own. That is how the Universal Negro Improvement Association differs from other organizations. Other organizations, especially in America, are fighting for a political equality which they will never get, and never win, in the face of a majority opposition. We win so much today and lose so much tomorrow. We will lose our political strength in the North in another few years, as we lost it in the South during reconstruction. We fill one position today, but lose two tomorrow, and so we will drift on and until we have been completely obliterated from western civilization. The battle of life never ceases. There is no true. Streams of men are constantly going forward. Some get over the top, others return broken and bent. This peace-time battle is centered in the industrial and commercial fields. Men must eat, drink, and have the necessities to sustain life. Some men spend sleepy nights working out their problems, others drift through life hoping that the God of Luck will favor them. Harlem, a city within a city, with its 200,000 population, is a great place. Young, and impulsive, it is gradually finding itself. This Marium is teaming with gold vein, for real prospectors. Millions of dollars are being made. Daniel Reeves, Butler Grocery Co., furniture company, theatre, drug stores, insurance companies and thousands of white individual stores operate there. The negro must begin to live the age. Steel, bricks, copper, groceries, clothing, sugar, etc., must have a new meaning to him. placing our plea before that throne of God, as ing film to so touch the hearts of our fellow men as to let them yield to us the things that are ours, as it was right to yield to Caesar the things that, were Caesar's. As we deliberate on the many problems confronting us during the month of August, let us not lose control of ourselves; let us not forget that we are the guardians of four hundred millions; let us not forget that it is our duty to no act and legislate as to help humanity everywhere, whether it be black or white. We shall be called upon during this month to take up certain matters that are grave, but dispensately we shall discuss them; and whenever the interest of the different race groups clash, let it be our duty to take the other fellow's feelings into our consideration. If we must be justly treated, then we ourselves must treat all men similarly. So, let no prejudice cause us to say or do anything against the interest of the white man, or the yellow man; let us realise that the white man has the right to live, the yellow man has the right to live, and all that we desire to do is to impress them with the fact that we also have the right to live. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be. Your obedient servant, (Signed) MARCUS GARVEY. President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association.

Mexicans, Japanese Do West's Work Occupations Fall to Keep Face With Negroes' Growth NEW YORK.—While the Negro population of the cities of the west coast is growing steadily each year there is L. Lise advance in occupation, according to T. Arnold Hill, director of the National Urban League Industrial Relations Department, home from a ten weeks' trip to the Pacific coast. Mr. Hill visited the principal cities of Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Oakland and Los Angeles and conferred with officials of smaller cities. Los Angeles is growing more rapidly than other cities in the west and Negroes are making progress in the moving picture industry as well as in small businesses of their own, but even here, the jobs commonly done by Negroes in the East, are offered Orientals and Mexicans. In some Western cities where the influx of white southerners is large, colored people are being restricted to the more undesirable section of the cities. In larger cities, colored people own homes in practically all sections. From Beale Street To Broadway (Outcured from Page Five) reached even the powerfully dense Hollywood magnates. They want to known a man about him. Well, let them. It can't hurt Hendy. The man is bigger than his son. His head is normal. As a composer, blues are his life. When Hendy writes a blues number, all of Hendy goes into it. The words are his. Read "The Chicago Gouge." He many-sided experience cast lights and shades of meaning over the blues. Don't forget the sound musicianship he had classically. He doesn't fall into the musical pitfalls that mark lesser men's work. The rhythm, the orchestration—all are his and all are racial. To this day they remain—and consequently all blues remains—in the twelve bars that the rigidly formal custom gave them through he would have made thousands and he reused the "Memphis Blues" in sixteen. He is a great business ability, not only on the broad scale, but in instrumental details as well. (To be continued.)
