Okla., May 31. Lynch law today exacted the life of Henry Argo, nineteen-year-old Negro charged with attacking a white woman—the second member of his race to die at the hands of a mob in the Southwest within a month. A mob of more than 1,000 men and boys which stormed the Grady County Jail intermittently throughout the night. and battled National Guardsmen, inflicted fatal injuries on the accused man before he was removed to a hospital at Oklahoma City, where he died this afternoon.

Follows Early this month a mob burned the court house and jail at Sherman, Tex., killing a Negro charged with the same offense and dragged his body through the streets, later burning it. Unlike the rioting at Sherman, no attempt was made here to harm other Negroes. The situation was quiet to night. Six members of the Chickasha Artillery Battery of the Oklahoma National Guard suffered minor injuries from misfire thrown by the mob. Several officers were injured. Nine men were without bond. Skinner and three other members of the turbulent crowd were arrested, but were released later without bond. B. P.

The explorers of the American Museum of Natural History plan to cover within the five months an area of 4,000 miles in the Gobi Desert. They will work eastward to a district never mapped, about halfway from Kalgan to the Russian frontier.

Many of our people have been very outspoken on this matter and have said that, the condition as it is today is porring the worst into which the court has fallen. Laborers are seen on the streets, and in restaurants loitering and all uttering the complaint that they have no work and that the outlook is dark. As we use the situation it is as follows: The malogatory companies have closed up their operations for an indefinite period. The benefit companies have curtailed most of their plans for extensive improvements as had been contemplated. The gold mines of the upper coast are not being operated, the rubber industry has long ago become a thing of Biased Judge Opposedby Race Negroes Raise Storm of Protest Against Justice Holmes—Present Affidavils in Support WASHINGTON, D. C.—Announcement in the daily press that Judge Edwin Holmes of the Federal Court Southern District, for Mississippi, will be among the names offered to President Hoover for appointment to fill the new judgeship on the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Fifth Federal Circuit at New Orleans, has provoked a storm of protests from Negroes who charge the jurist with exhibiting race prejudice against Negro lawyers in open court. Affiliates have been received, by the White House in support of these suggestions. On one occasion Judge Holmes is accused of impersonating over R. A. Green, Minister of National Security, and a Harvard graduate, (presenting white objects in the Federal Court as Washington, Misc.). When the case of John Hancock was heard, he was asked to explain why he was being charged with being a member of the Ku Klux Klan. He denied the charge, and the court ordered him to appear before the judge. Selfish Men Slyly Creep Into U. N. I. A. To Merely Betray the Sacred Cause of Africa's Redemption and Negro's Welfare Most Honorable and Consistent Leaders Are Two Ladies—Mme. M. L. T. DeMena and Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis The Great Handicap of Our Movement is Dishonesty on the Part of Men Leaders—But We Shall Press On—For Our Cause is Just And God is With Us FELLOWMEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: How long shall we continue have dishonest, self-seeking, dishonorable men among us as leaders who do not hesitate for a moment to betray their trust for a consideration? Why must these men seek to impose upon our trusting nature and try to destroy the vital interests of our race while professing to serve us? Upright Men Not Forthcoming Up to the present we have not entirely succeeded in getting upright and honest men. The few leaders we have had recently, came in quite all right but after a while they started to do and play the same Women Consistent, Fair and True. Among those whom I can recommend as being most honorable and consistent leaders of the movement are two women who have done exceedingly well, when nearly all the men have failed, and they are still in active service - Madame M. L. T. DelMena, who is our present international organiser, and Lady Hearrietta Winton Davies, who is our present secretary general. We have had very little trouble with the women in the movement; with the exception of one or two, we have never had a disheartened women in the leadership of the organization. Every woman has played fair and true. Men Have Abused Confidence But it is sad to say, that nearly every man we placed in position of trust has allowed his confidence and proven a claim. They always see the selfish "I" the desire to exploit the people willing to support the cause, for their own purpose. That is the great difficulty with Negro organizations and the great difficulty, that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has not been able to overcome aptly. A Traktor Vice-President I make bold to make these statements of truth because I want to guide my people right. Everybody who has watched Negro movements knows that sooner or later most of them get foundered on the same rock—inconsistency, disloyalty, swell-headedness, and the desire to usurp authority—everybody wanting to be boss, wanting to be head. At the present time I am having difficulty in the organization, caused from the same evil disposition. While I am president general of the organization and whilst we have our headquarters here from which all instructions must go, we have a vice president general, without any authority, calling & conference of all the presidents of the movement and without any information or instruction from the president general. But U. N. T. A. Will Move On These are the things that ruin Negro movements, but still, because of the deep-seated principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its glorious ideals, the movement moves on, overcoming all difficulties, destroying all handicaps. And so today the movement is entrenched in the hearts of hundreds of millions of Negroes throughout the world. We have done wonderful work in Africa. And if our work in the 15 years was to be measured by profits and dividends, we could fairly say that the Universal Improvement Association has been the most successful movement not only among Negroes but among all rabes during that period of time. The dividends we have paid are that we have attracted Africa from center to circumference. In every section of the homeland, the Negro is now awakened through our propaganda of "Afric for the Africans, at home and abroad." Carmel Rain Ellis African are because of our determination to press our cause before the League. To Continue Industrial Program There is nothing like proper education. It will fit the man for his future. And so the education in the Universal Negro Improvement Association's propaganda has done such great work that today many a Negro owes his position to this source. We are now launching out in America, in keeping with our original objects, on the proposition of building factories in the United States and developing plantations in the West Indies and in Africa. This is going to take a tremendous outlay of money and cooperation, but we are laying a proper foundation. With the plan we have in view, we hope that in 30 years the Negro will be on the right road to the solution of his problems. We are anticipating opposition from the same group of men, who do nothing but oppose. They have not up to now brought out any economic solution of our race problem. Yet, they agitate to oppose anything undertaken by others for the good of the race. enemies are not those on the outside but those in our midst, because when we can readily recognize the enemies on the outside and do not allow them to pass, we have those on the inside working with us to destroy us without our knowing. But God will keep a watchful eye on our movement, for our cause is just. We are bound to win if every Negro man, woman and child do their duty and stand by their true leaders and support us in every way. Help Without Stinking Let all Divisions remit to Headquarters their annual Assessment Tax. Let everyone rally to the great drive for our six hundred million dollar fund. Let every Negro stand ready to protect by financial means the voice of the Negro Race "The Negro World." With every last wishes I have the honor to be. U. N. L. A. and A. C. L.

Well for trial. Mr. Knox's lawyer made a motion for adjournment until Wednesday morning, June 4th, which was granted. Higher Ball Asked For Mr. Knox appeared before the court greatly worn out and with fear in his eyes. His lawyer's motion for postponement was not contested as such by the counsel for The Negro World, but the latter argued that the defendant should be held on a bail bond much higher than $1,500, of which $1,000 was for possession of a gun without license, and $500 for assault. "I'll not object to adjournment, your honor," said the counsel for the Negro World, "but I move that the defendant's ball should be increased in view of the fact that he carried a big gun apparently, with the intention of manslaughter and in view of the fact that he is not a resident of the city of New York. He actually got into a combat with Mr. Strong of the plaintiffs, and besides, he possessed that gun without license. The judge agreed with the counsel for the Negro World. "I personally would require a much higher ball in such a case," said his honor, "but I hesitate to increase it now in reference to Judge McQuade, who fixed the ball originally." In the midnight Mr. Kincaid counsel offered to produce his clients on his own responsibility whenever required.

Alas sunset the insular troops retired for the night, rearing ambush in the dense woods of the region. One soldier was wounded. The casualties among the Moros, if any, were not determined. Using rifles, shotguns and large pistols, the defenders kept up a steady fire on the constabulary. Colonel L. R. Stevens, the district commander, kept his men under cover as much as possible and refused to permit a rush on the fort, desiring to avoid such casualties as were inflicted by the Moros on May 7, when four soldiers were killed and ten wounded. To prevent other Moros from joining those in the fort, a patrol was placed on all roads ending to it. It was presumed the constabulary would renew the attack tomorrow. Where the Moros got their weapons was a mystery.

N. I. A., August 1939, held under the auspices of the Garvey Club, at 2067 Eighth avenue. Seated on the platform, were: Mr. H. G. Mudgal, native of India and Acting Editor of The Negro World; Hon. M. E. Kelly, President of the East Brooklyn Division, and Hon. C. V. Cohen, vice-president of Brooklyn Division, and our officers of the Garvey Club. The meeting opened with the singing of "From Greenland's Icy Mountains." After the ritualistic services, there was a demonstration by the Military Unit and U. A. Legions. Next we were favored with a fine selection from the band and anthem by the choir. Master Williams of the J. C. C. tendered a very inspiring recitation after which Mrs. Holde of the choir gave a soprano solo. The reading of the President General's message led the singing of his hymn brought the musical program to a close. Hon. W. F. Rivers, vice-president, and chairman, before calling on the speakers of the evening, exhorted his hearers to stick to the program of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. The stumbling blocks must be removed so that the work can go on. The race and posterity must be saved at all costs. The masses are keeping their eyes on all those that attempt to put stumbling blocks in their way of progress. Mr. Chairman, President, members and friends: My subject tonight will be "OUR LEADER." I do not mean to give him flowers when he is dead, then I take the honor of giving them when he is alive. Our leader has been ordained and appointed, selected and elected by the Negro People of the World. Before the advent of Hon. Marcus Garvey, other associations death, only with the American Negroes, but he has called all Negroes of the various climes, together and made them know that they are one people, with one common cause. He is not a party leader, or a group leader, but a UNIVERSAL LEADER. I am therefore appealing to you to leave group, cliques, and invariants, and let us all adhere to the program of Hon. Marcus Garvey, for we are followers of no mean leader. ership, but leadership that the black man and woman feel proud of in this 20th century. Hon. L. W. McCarthy, Vice-Pres. Mr. Chairman, President, officers members and flirtenge: It is encouraging to see so many out this evening. Our cry at this hour is SINCERE AND LOYAL MEN. It would seem to appear that with many of us the more we learn of the organization, the less we work in behalf of its program. When we do something to hamper the progress of the movement, we must remember that we not only hamper the progress of the grown folks, but we are tampering with the destiny of a race and posterity of ours. We are looking and hoping for the cooperation of the members the wild over; who have made up their minds and are determined to press on and on with the Men. Marcus Garvey as the head of this movement in behalf of a suffering people. Let us not forget the mouthpiece and instrument of this cause. THE NEGRO WORLD. It must be supported at all costs, for there is a voice crying in the wilderness and that voice must be heard in behalf of the Negro Peoples of the World.

President, officers, members and frides of the Garvey Club and Universal Negro Improvement Association August 1929 of the World: Ladies and gentlemen. I bring you greetings from the East Brooklyn Division of the U. N. J. A. August 1929 of the World and its members. They want you to feel that they are with you in heart and spirit in this great drive for a redeemed Africa. If I had the time this evening, I would speak to you on the subject, "THE NEGRO AND THE FLESHPOTS OF EGYPT." But as time will not allow me to do go, I hope at a future date to be able to do go.

In view of the fact that many things are going on in the world today, every individual and member ought to know what he or she wants, and should then decide how to achieve it. If I am not mistake the members of this movement had decided that in 1918. Since I took up the study of world politics, I have watched the activities of the U. N. I. A. This movement is not going to change only the condition of the Negro, but will also affect other races of people. I read an editorial of the "TWO FLEAS" in the collar of British Imperialism. The names of which are supposed to commence with two "G's." They are Gandali and Garvey. As long as Great Britain does not cast off the garment of imperialism, these fleas will remain in her collar. The trouble with our local leaders is that they do not see beyond their nose, but are only concerned about themselves. Men can go without food for days. The Mayor of Cork fasted for 65 days without food on a hunger strike and died, but the cause for which he died survived. I must say a few words to the women inspiring nations to success. In China, Turkey and also in Africa, we find them today fighting for freedom. Woman is a purifier. She can cure a selfish man by her influence. Will you stand by the leader of your movement, and when you find traitors brush them aside and carry on the work. The great organ and mouthpiece, THE NEGRO WORLD, had carried the tingles far and wide."AFRICA. FOR THE AFRICANS, THOSE AT HOME AND THOSE ABROAD." If you do not use some medium to make your wishes and desires known, then the world will pay no attention to you, and it has been through this newspaper that we are being heard. Let us rally to this paper, and see that the attacks of the unscrupulous men fail. Rey. C. P. Green Mr. Chairman, President, distinguished visitors, members and friends. I want to bring one thought before you tonight, and it is this: As soon as Peter thought that he was as big as Jesus, and could walk on the water he began to sink. Any time a Negro thinks that he is as big as Hen, Marcus Garvey and tries to take his job, then he begins to sink. I note that the Gold Star Mothers have appealed against the segregation, that has come upon them by the getting of separate ships to carry them to France. Where is the head of their government and their Navy that they are speaking about. Such an appeal will only be laughed at and a pleasant excuse will be given them. Today on President Cindy Moore that "social, economic program has reached its crisis, unless they go back to true religion. For over 300 years they have been feeling in. The progress of bombing and burning the black men and women has been a part of their religion. It is time for us to stop clapping our hands at the man and woman that says he is 100% behind Mr. Garvey. They mean that they are 100% behind him to destroy him and his works. Let us by like Joshua. Do not shout before something is done and Africa is redeemed." "We are asking all members to come out on Friday evening May 6th, to the entertainment of the Juvenile and give them your support morally and financially. The meeting was brought to a close with the playing of the "Star Spangled Banner," and the Ethiopian National Authent," Ethiopia, Thou Land of Our Fathers, after which the chapel and audience repeated the Motto—One God, One Aim, One Destiny.

Thousands flocked to the "sea and sky" expedition at Uyseno Park. Other throngs witnessed a parade of models of Admiral Togo's warships through the city. A constant stream of worshipers prayed the day long at Yadukumi shrine, dedicated to the souls of those who died in action. The central figure of the day's observations was the veteran Togo—Count Admiral of the fleet, wearer of the highest decorations his sovereign can bestow, ranking subject of the empire and Japan's hero of heroes. This morning the Admiral "reviewed" the miniature reproduction of his fleet, mounted on motor trucks in Hibiya Park. At noon naval leaders gathered in the presence of Emperor Hirohito at the Navy Club in Shiba Park, Togo also attending. All of the principal characters of the current naval crisis over the London treaty were present. Differences between the naval general staff and the civilian element of the government continues with no suggestions of an early solution of the difficulty. It is persistently reported that Admiral Kato, commander of the combined fleet, will shortly resign, claiming that he is unable to take the responsibility of defending the empire with the fleet left in him by the London treaty. African Tribes Defeat Large Italian Army PARIS, May 11, (Sunday), (Exclusive). — The Communist Daily L'Humanite this morning says the rebel tribes of Cyrenaica, Africa, have defeated a force of 25,000. Italian troops. L'Humanite states that 900 were killed, of whom 250 were officers, and several hundred were wounded. In addition, the rebels captured an important booty of 534 rifles, thirty machine guns, 250 mules and 150 camels loaded with provisions and ammunition and also knot down one airplane. Sherman Daily Invited Mob to Do Its Worst SHERMAN, Tex.—This statement, appearing in the Daily Democrat, white daily newspaper, before the lynching last week, encouraged the white mob to defy both state police and militia. The article stated: A message from Governor Moody was said to have been received in the court room ordering the Ranger force to care for the Negro if possible, but to stop short of shooting in the crowd or injuring bystanders by use of firearms. This statement was regarded as an invitation to the mob to do its worst and it did. ATLANTA, G.A., CNS)—Two Oglethorpe County white youths who poured gasoline on a colored boy, and got him just to see him run will served sentences of one year on the chain gang as the result of an opinion hanged death by the Georgia Court of Appeals last week. According to the testimony in the record, the man, Grand Looney and Theo Christian, caught the boy, whose name was William Jewell, saturated the legs of his trousers with gasoline poured from a quart cup, and Looney applied a burning match. The Negro was severely burned. Neither of the defendants denied setting the boy afire, although both contended that the pouring of the gasoline on him had been intended as a joke, and that his gasoline soaked clothing had been set afire accidentally. elect a colored man from a district largely white.

What Cost Love Of British Crown An unusual feature of the present session of Parliament at Ottawa has been criticism of the mounting cost of maintaining the Governor General of Canada. In accordance with constitutional practice there has been no personal criticism of the Viscount Willington, who holds that office as the personal representative of King George, and the Canadian Government as a matter of course has accepted full responsibility for the expenditures. Emphasis was laid by M. N. Campbell, a. Progressive member from Western Canada, on the fact that last year the expenses incidental to maintaining Canada's link with the throne amounted to $440,857, which set a new record. This sum included the Governor General's salary of $50,000, a similar sum for traveling expenses, $156,519 for maintaining Rideau Hall, his official residence in Ottawa, and $148,876 for repairing and keeping up of the ancient Citadel in Quebec City as a Summer residence. Details brought out of the official records showed that $19,766 had been spent on new furniture for Rideau Hall and $50,000 on additions to the building. $19, for fuel and $2,525 for telephones. Dealing further with the Citadel Mr. Campbell pointed out that in all about $300,000 had been spent in putting the historic building in con- dition for vice-regal occupancy, and he mentioned an item of $10,819 for 1,871 yards of carpet, $7,712 for renovating and plastering the ballroom, $7,536 for hangings, $11,081 for plumbings. At Rideau Hall carpets and rugs had cost $11,650, hangings $1,831 and linen $3,002. In 1021 the whole cost of the vice-regal estab-lishment was $249,402, and the total remained around that figure until 1027, the first year of Lord Willim- doe's incumbency, when it began to mount.

CO., Inc. Indianapolis, Indiana RALLY Sunday March 2nd and 3rd were "Garvey Day" at Liberty Hall, 5th and Chester St., Calif., Calif. An appreciable gathering of members and friends were treated to a brilliant musical and literary program. The meeting was called to order by the President, Walter Woods. The religious ceremony was conducted by the chaplain, G. Chalmers. The choir sang "Let the Suns' line In" which received hearty applause. The Juveniles furnished v. with their singing and usual interesting recitations. The Garvey Bigride" was next sung by Mr. and Mrs. Chalmers and Mrs. S. T. Murphy and was warmly received. "The "Current Topics," were able read by Mr. G. E. Inman. A vocal solo: Entitled "Thinking" was well rendered by Mrs. A. Williams. A second solo: "Where He Leads Me" read by Mr. G. E. Inman followed by two verses of "Where He Leads Me" which was sung in unison. At this point Mr. W. A. Deane, Chairman of the Program and Publicity Committee, was presented and spoke very forcefully and convincingly on the subject—"The Battle Cry of the Black man". The great orator rose amidst great applause and stated he felt that the atmosphere, was a little cool, so in keeping with the subject selected he would try to infuse in them the spirit of Battle (mentally) so he asked the pianist to play "Sound the Battle Cry". Mr. Deane then portrayed a mental picture of the "Battle Cry" that the other races have raised for their betterment. The outstanding motive for this attitude by these races were their further well-being. Who was good for the Anglo-American, the Irish, the Jew, is also good for the Negro. And the "Battle Cry of the Negro is 'Africa for the Africans', those at home and those abroad". There let us erect a great and powerful government of our own. Blackmen are hopelessly depending on the constitutions of other governments, said the speaker, but, said he that for the Negro to get his "full manhood rights" he must get a "Constitution" of his own embodying his ability, initiative, determination, and manhood in that he must build for himself a "Government" of his own must resist the authorities, his own must resist and have his own "Ships" sailing the "Seven Seas" manned by "Blackmen", transporting the products which his "Brothers" in various parts have produced, thus relieving and finally eliminating the terrible economic pressure that is owing the life out of the Negro at present. The gifted speaker further stated that the Negro has spent most of his time praying and failed to work some. Mindful of the scripture that says: "We must Fight, Watch and Pray". So in the order given we can easily be guilty of praying too much. Mr. Deane closed by urging the Negroes present who were not members to join the great Universal, Negro Improvement Association and assist in the great work which was the establishment of a great, "African Government" in our Fatherland, which would ensure the proper "protection and representation of Negroes the World Over." The address was a literary masterpiece, found in thought, forceful, and compelling in facts, and inspiring and brilliant in presentation. Mr. Deane was given a great ovation as he act. The visitors were introduced, the "Ethiopian National" Anthem" sung and the Announcements given out. The Cleveland Division No. 133 held its regular Sunday afternoon mass meeting Sunday, May 4, at 2 p.m. in Liberty Hall, 220 East 40th street. The meeting was opened in the usual way with the military departments leading the procession, with the choir following singing "Shine On Eternal Light". Rev. A. G. Ellenburg pressured over the devotional part of the meeting. Rev. Ellenburg also delivered the opening address, after which the choir delivered a wonderful relection. The Hon. Marcus Carvey's front page message was read by Estella Wilbert, this was followed with the audience standing at attention singing "God Bless Our President". The principal speaker of the afternoon was the Hon. S. V. Robertson, president of the Cleveland Division, who delivered another soul stirring address for African redemption. The meeting was closed with the singing of the Universal Anthem. On Sunday, May 11, the meeting opened at 8 p.m. The first speake- r on the program was Mr. Huff, the first vice president.

The hall was packed on this "Mother's Day." The first item on the choir program was a selection by the choir. Next was an address by the Lady President, Mrs. Lucy Scrutchins. The African Legions delivered a series of quartets. One of their spectals was a song they called the "Doggone African Blues," a song which was composed by the legions. Next was a selection by the Universal African Hand which was out in full regalia. The next speaker, Mrs. Annie Harrison, held her audience spellbound for at least 15 minutes. Her main thought was that the most important mother of the black race was Mother Africa, our Homeland. The Ladies Quartette had their way in singing. Their special was "Hambone is Sweet, Sweet, but gve me some of that good did Watermelon Rind." Major Kirkwood delivered an address on, "Mother." He made a very interesting speech about the wonderfulness of Motherhood, stressing the point that the Hon. Marcus Garvey's mother was, is and always will be the greatest of all great mothers. This was followed by a solo by Mrs. Lulu Hudson entitled "Mother Pray." The meeting was closed with the The meeting was closed with the singing of the Anthem. "Truth Crushed to Earth Shall Rise Again" Editor. The Negro World. Please permit me a little space in the precious columns of your "Indispensable Weekly," to convey those few words to 11,000,000 sons and daughters of Ham who have gone in sympathy with the Hon. Marcus Garvey, with a determination "Africa must be Free." We of division No. 754, Elia, Camaguey, Cuba, beg to inform our sisters and brothers, and especially in Cuba, that, after four months and twelve days of sleeping, we have awakened again to responsibilities. And now we are on the firing lines again. After an investigation by the government in October, 1929, on the 15th of December we were ordered to cease functioning in our division. On the 21st of said month; the ex-president, Mr. J. O. Solomon and myself were summoned to court to answer to the question of teaching separation of race, when all men had that equal rights." I proved my innocence. I stated that I was guilty of teaching higher developments along the lines of human achievement, in all within of life. After the above mentioned months passed, we started to seek information from the governor for the province of Camaguey. The good governor right away used his official power in straightening out our matters for us. We are not only ready to work again, but to send for our new office, also, from the ruling of the convention of August 1925 of the World. We cannot forget a vote of thanks to the Florida division, Camaguey, Cuba, for their kind cooperation. Our hand of fellowship stretches from Elisa to the town of Camaguey, in toten of respect to the Hon. Arthur Whyte, for the distinguished services rendered us during the time of our struggles. I am hoping that all other divisions in Cuba that were closed will do likewise. "Truth crushed to earth shall rise again." Now 11,000,600 of us can rally as never before, and help the Hon. Marens Garvey to put this program over. Sourz out of JOSPH A. ATTUS.

The idea is to establish a uniform price on all goods sold by this chain of stores. This price is to be published weekly in order that the customers may see and know the prices of all goods to be sold that week in the chain stores. You will go under the same name. The price will be in keeping with the market price and the retail price asked by other grocers on the same article on the same day. As time goes on this organization will establish its own brand of products which will be sold in all of their stores. In the future there will be insurance and loaning departments connected with this gigantic organization: merchants who need money to stock their stores will be able to borrow at a normal rate of interest. This combined financial strength will permit them to be in the position to compete with any store in Chicago. These combined two hundred stores will be able to give employment to something like two thousand men and women of the state. We will have more to tell you of the group of these united grocers in the next issue of this paper. These grocers should be commended. Let us hope this will not be the only such step taken in the direction of unification among our business people. Gancino, C. R. On Sunday, May 4th, the La African Branch of the U. N. L. A. had a pleasant Sunday afternoon at Terry Hall in celebration of Gavers' Day. The meeting was well attended. Several addresses were delivered including the reading of the biography of the Hon. Marcus Gavers from the "Philosophy and Opinion." The audience showed their appreciation of the meeting by paying rapt attention through the entire proceedings. The meeting was called to order by the President, Mr. J. Barnes, with the processional hymn "Shine On Eternal Light," followed with the opening ode. Acting as chaplain, he continued the ritualistic exercises. The hymn "God of the Right," was sung and brought the devotional part of the meeting to a close. Resorting to the temporal part of the meeting, he met with the staff and courageing address, after which he introduced Mr. S. Watson, as chairman of the evening. Mr. Watson was greeted with cheers as he rose. He made a few remarks, and continued the program as follows: The president made the closing remarks, thanking the friends for their presence.

S. Cromo, who spoke on general topics of the day, and Mr. C. W. Norman, a very energetic young man who long ago caught the spirit of "Africa for the Africans those at home and those abroad," and to date has not fallen dead and not grown weary of making his people. The reading of the front page of "The Negro World," which expressed the feeling, thoughtfulness, watchfulness, and consistency of the one and only President-General, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, was read by the reporter, which put vim, vigor and vitality in its listeners. An Illustration by chirl was made by the Reverend Kn. Hart of this division which also was a tremendous success. A wonderful selection and the singing of the Megroh, only three Nationals Anthony by the Garvey Club Bond and members, marked the close of a marvelous afternoon.

Florida Division, Camaguey, Cuba Our activities here have been greatly crippled since December 11th, 1929 when notice was served on the president of the division by the governmental authorities, to cease functioning. Such an act was quite a disappointment to the members and friends of this world-wide movement and served to eclipse, though partially, the development of plans for the division's progress. The very first act of the executives of the division, on learning of their misfortune, was to seek an interview with the gobernador of the province to withstay the immediate order for a couple of months which they would arrange division matters. The unsuccessful in their efforts to have a breathing time and so a petition was sent to the Secretariat de Gobernacion at Havana, but with no success. We are still Garvey's fighting in the cause that shall bring about a better harmony in the great human family of the races, and lay waiting to step over the numerous objections that must come our way to test our true spirit and determination in the cause we espouse, for we are not the least discouraged. Many a word was said for and against the propriety of the division when the news was first heard, but narrow filled the horde of everybody when on Sunday nights they required that they had no where to go and enjoy service. The very indifferent, standing outside of Liberty Fight on Sunday nights, who used to interrupt the mass meetings by introducing their depreciable behavior, realized that they have lost a privilege, though an important pleasure, that no other moiety in the neighborhood offers. The Negro population of this town had never been so poorly a Christmas Session as the last. Had it not been for the Anniversary Service of one of the Graternal bodies here Christmas Sunday would have been passed with nothing to mark its advent. This event was a very pleasurable one. There was beauty in the elegance of the many republic, pamp and mobility mixed with closeness in the performance of the preliminary rites and satisfaction from the literary part of the program. The U, N, I, A, was represented by the choir and a delegate. In very pleasing to state that most of the members of this body are also members of the division; hence the spirit of Garveyism was not absent. The new year has just stepped in and our most sincere prayer is that the divisions closed down be reopened as early as ever; for the salvation of the Negro rests solely on our achievements collectively. CON. ADJ. HOWLITT. Editor's Note: Mr. Howlitt's prayer has been granted according to the communication from Cuba printed on the editorial page of this issue. We hope and urge that Garveyism will spread with greater rapidity throughout Cuba. NOTICE! NOTICE!

On hearing about this book, our already meeting colleague at the 11th by the president, Mr. W. Pitzer, with the singing of the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountain" and prayer by the chaplain, Mr. H. Miller, followed with the singing of "God of the Right, Our Battle Fight," after which the ritualistic ceremony was performed by the chaplain, Hymn No. 138 from the ritual was sung, which closed the spiritual part of the meeting. The other part of the program was turned over to the President, who gave his opening address and appealed to the members who are non-financial, to them the financial help, to friends who are not enrolled as members to make themselves members, and to support the movement, so that our motherland Africa may be redeemed, for it is only through their financial help that the program can be put over. On Sunday, just 1st, which is "Garvey's Day," an extraordinary mass meeting took place at 73 West 133rd street (corner of Lenox avenue, one flight up). Our members and friends turned out with a spirit of determination, which shows progress. The spirit of "Garveyian" was well permeated into the minds and hearts of everyone. Our meeting was started in the usual manner by the singing of the Processional Hymn, "On Eternal Lifes" followed by the prayer from the Mitchell. We had a talk by Mr. Leo Wynter, in the usual element manner. "Nikita was a well cherished address by Mrs. Roa Penna, our first Lady President, 'Our Little Tiger from Chinchin,' which was enthusiastically received. We were most favored with another wonderful address by Mr. Samuel Millon, Grant, in his usual manner." We had another wonderful impinging address by our local organizer, Mrs. Malone Smith, and the topic was "Our leader has been tested and found true, and he is the one who God has appointed to come out from among our brethren and lead the price of peace." And Mr. E. B. Known ate and drunk in the cup of wine, and now he has hastened the process, all Negroes literally stand for this movement for it in this, and shall for Freedom. Next was the singing of the hymn, "Oh Arlech, Ayrishen." We had many other members of the Mt. Birthday Mr. Johnson from Afton, Mr. Samuel Meltz, Pattos, and M. Dale. After a very inimical meeting the program was brought to a close by our President, Major St. William Grant, who also was the principal speaker of the evening. Next was the singing of the "Bhilippian National Anthem." Meetings are held every Sunday and Wednesday at 8 p. m. shrap. MISS D.

E. Samuels, who occupied the chair for the evening. Reading of the Negro World by Mr. Balfour Williams, secretary of the division; a reading by Mrs. Clarke received much applause; solo by Mrs. Hamilton, who thrilled her hearers to the utmost, also was accompanied at the piano by- Prof. Woods; a solo from Mrs. Boyce, accompanied by Mies DeMeia, also came in for a lot of applause; there was also a solo from Mrs. Douglas, very well rendered. Lieut Henry spoke very lyrically, but ally, on the "rider-miller." Mr. Cousar Biggler also spoke, and spawn. Next we heard from Mr. Musk, and authority on foreign affairs, and Acting Battler of the Negro World, who said in part that "The troubles with most organizations are caused by the lack of respect I appeal to the people of the great continent." The reprehension of women are both bitter and painful and unsettling. We their should become leaders. All leaders are other than Gavrey, are only local politicians. Gavrey, however, has a vision and does not work for local post-offices, etc., alone, but for the interest of the entire Negro race. Fellow him. His program is bound to win." After the collection was taken, the principal speaker of the evening, Mr. Sal. of Africa, was introduced. Among other things, he said: "I am not a member of this organization, but that does not mean that I am a bad Negro. You have the honor and the privilege of following Garvey, who is the greatest man I've ever seen. All the weaker peoples of the world have awakened through Marcus Garvey's doctrine. The people of Africa are so powerful and dedicated daily. Why don't you stand together for universal brotherhood?" Garvey wants "Africa, for the African." Come to us, and we will receive you as brothers. I shall be in Africa soon, where I hope to meet you, coming not as tools but as men—to build for yourselves." The singing of the Ethiopian Ante- bail brought the meeting to a cili- lated Moron Division The officers and members of the Moron division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association beg to the Brother Witman Hunt, Chaplain and Sergeant-Major of the Legions of this division, who, after a short illness, passed into eternity at 5:30 am, on May 21. As a social worker, his service has been invaluable to the division and the community in general. He was widely known as a violinist and actor. After spending an enjoyable Easter season with us, he left for the "Camp" where he attended to stage a series of performances. But the inevitable awakened him, for he had not gone for when fever lurked in his path, and the office compelled to return to town, and in twelve days from date of the attack, death filled its claim. All the units of the division, accompanied by the various societies made and impressive spectacle as they marched to the cemetery, while the band played the death march, to pay their last homage to his remains. We tender our confluence to his beloved relatives and friend in Iraq. Negro's Economic Status Explained in Toni Foley WASHINGTON, M. C. A. W. Matherland, president of the National Bureau of Labor Insurance Company, and one of the leading labor union of our group, served for publication this week the following statement of the status of the American Negro with reference to acquiring economic independence: 1. The Negro helped to discover to explore and to design this country. He therefore entitled to the possibility on honour living in his native home. 2. Any economic system which owns the Negro or hides him in making a living in not American and is also unjust. 3. The Negro deserves at least in much consideration as the hypothetical American and foreigner in time of a crisis, are not loyal to the flag. The Negro has never been a thiever. 4. It is not fair to keep a man imprisoned, and then blame him for the use of writing as a byline means. 5. I will need before he reaches the extremity of starvation. 5. After all is said and done, however, the Negro must solve his own problem, not by seeking sympathy of appealing to others. He must look to himself. 6. Proceeding in a sentimental way, the jobless Negroes may find employment here, and there among the whites, but the only hope for permanent jobs is to develop them among ourselves. 7. Negroes must learn to cooperate in establishing business enterprises of their own and must give up their own jobs. In this way we can live in this country. Otherwise we are doomed to die. 8. Every time a Negro, develops to the extent that he can give another a job he helps to solve the race problem and he becomes one of those who will save his race from economic extermination. 9. If the crude Chinaman can come from his native land and become independent here by developing the hand laundry, which is not known in his own country, the Negroes must get busy and do at least as well. 10. If the prosecuted Jew can come from Russia and control practically all the business among Negroes by taking over stores on the corners of their streets, the Negroes should try to profit by their example.

On the other side the King entered the hall, with his pittiering crown on his head and a staff in his hand. When they met before the altar to be joined together, it was a crown or jubilee and jacee.

March 2nd, was "Garry Day" at Library Hall, 6th and Chester St., Oakland, Calif. An appreciable gathering, of members and friends were treated to a brilliant musical and literary program. The meeting was called to order by the President, Walter Woods. The religious ceremony was conducted by the chaplains, G. Chalmers. "The choir sang," Let the Sunshine In" which received, heartily applause. The Juveniles furnished us with their singing and usual interesting recitations. "The Garvey Brigade" was next sung by Mr. and Mrs. Chalmers and Mrs. S. T. Murphy and was warmly received. "The Current Topic" were easily read by Mr. G. E. Inman. A vocal solo: Entitled: "Thinking" was well rendered by Mrs. A. Williams. The President General, Mrs. E. Inman, followed by two verses of "Where He Loads Me" which was sung in unison. At this point Mr. W. A. Deane, Chairman of the Program and Publicity Committee, was presented and spoke very forcefully and convincingly on the subject—"The Battle Cry of the Black man". The great orator rose amidst great applause and stated he felt that the atmosphere was a little cool, so in keeping with the subject selected he would try to infuse in them the spirit of Battle (mentally) so he asked the pianist to play "Sound the Battle Cry". Mr. Deane then portrayed a mental picture of the "Battle Cry" that the other races have raised for their betterment. The outstanding motive for this attitude by these races were their further well being. The speaker exclaimed, "What is good for the Anglo-American, the Irish, the Jew, is also good for the Negro." The "Battle Cry of the Negro is" Africa for the Africans, "those at home and those abroad". There let us erect a great and powerful government of our own. Blackmen are hopelessly depending on the constitutions of other governments, said the speaker, but, said he, that for the Negro to get his "full manhood rights" he must get a "Constitution" of his own embodying his ability, initiative, determination, and manhood in that he must build himself a "Government." The Negro must build his own factories, his own industries, and have his own "Ships" sailing the "Seven Seas," manned by "Blackmen," transporting the products which his "Brothers" in various parts have produced, thus relieving and finally eliminating the terrible economic pressure that is crushing the life out of the Negro at present. The gifted speaker further stated that the Negro has spent most of his time copying and tipping in the workroom. Beautiful of the response that issued "We must fight, Watch and Dear." So in the order we can easily be guilty of preaching too much. Mr. Dear closed by the Ne given present who were not members to join the great Universal Negro Improvement Association and must in the great work which was the establishment of a great, "African Government" in our Fatherland, which would insure the proper protection and representation of Negroes the Worst. The subject was a literary masterpiece performed in thought, forceful, and coplying in facts, and inspiring and brilliant in presentation. Mr. Dewey was given a great occasion as his art. The visitors were introduced, the "American National Anthem" sung and the Announcements given ear. MISS M. PERLY, Reporter.

U. is Now Available Tq Speak On The Significance of VIRGINIA REVOLUTION With Eastern Slide Illustrations Address: 511 80T. 79th STREET New York City President of the Universal Choir, Mrs. Texas Moore, who in turn gave a short address introducing the Choir, who was host to the meeting. The hall was packed on this Mother's Day. The first item on the choir program was a selection by the choir. Next was an address by the Lady President, Mrs. Lucy Scurchins. The African Legions delivered a series of quartettes. One of their specials was a song they called the Doggone's Artist. Next was a composition by the legions. Next was a selection by the Universal African Band which was out in full regalia. The next speaker, Mrs. Annie Harrison, held her audience spellbound for at least 15 minutes. Her main thought was that the most important mother of the black race was Mother-Africa, our Homeland. The Ladies Quartette had their way in singing. Their special was "Hambone is Sweet, Sweet, but give me some of that good old Watermelon Rind." Major Kirkwood delivered an address on "Mother." He made a very interesting speech about the wonderfulness of Motherhood, stressing the point that the Hon. Marcus Garvey's mother was, is and always will be the greatest of all great mothers. This was followed by a solo by Mrs. Lulu Hudson entitled "Mother Pray." The meeting was closed with the singing of the Anthem. "Truth Crushed to Earth Shall Rise Again" Editor, The Negro World. Please permit me a little space in the precious columns of your "Indispensable Weekly," to convey those few words to 11,000,000 sons, and daughters of Ham who have gone in sympathy with the Hon. Marcus Garvey, with a determination "Africa must be Free." We of division No. 754, Elia, Camaguey, Cuba, beg to our sisters and brothers, and especially in Cuba, that after four months and twelve days of sleeping, we have awakened again to responsibilities. And now we are on the firing lines again. After an investigative government in October, 1929, on the sale of December we were ordered to cease functioning in our division. On the 21st of said month, the ex-president, Mr. J. O. Solomon and myself were appointed to count to answer to the bishop's request for permission of race, when all men in Cuba equal rights." I proved my innocence. I stated that I was guilty of teaching higher developments along the lines of human achievement in all walks of life. After the above mentioned months passed, we started to seek information from the governor for the province of Camaguey. The good governor right away used his of high power in straightening out our matters for us. We are not only ready to work again, but to send for our new charter, also, from the ruling of the convention of August 1922 of the World. We cannot forget a vote of thanks to the Florida division, Camaguey, Camaguey, for their kind cooperation. Our hand of fellowship stretches from Ellis to the town of Camaguey, in token of respect to the Hon. Arthur Whyte, for the distinguished service rendered us during the time of our war, hoping that all other divisions in the town were closed will do this. For this and other persons, I asked, "Truth brushed to cipher than rife again?" Now 11,000,000 of us can rely on never before, and help the Hon. Marcel Garvey to put this program over. Yours for racial upift. JOSSEP A. HITUS Bella, Conway, Cuba 200 Negro Merchanis Organize Chain Store CHICAGO—The plans are now being worked out for more than two hundred Negro grocerymen to unite in a gigantic chain store combination. The idea is to establish a uniform price on all goods sold by this chain of stores. This price is to be published weekly in order that the customers may see and know the prices of all goods to be sold that week in the chain stores. These two hundred or more stores will go under the same name. The market price will be in keeping with the market price of other grocery plants asked by other grocers on the same article on the same day. As time goes on this organisation will establish its own brand of products which will be sold in all of their stores. In the future there will be insurance and loaning departments connected with this gigantic organization: merchants who need money to stock their stores will be able to borrow at a normal rate of interest. This combined financial strength will permit them to be in the position to compete with any store in Chicago. These combined two hundred stores will be able to give employment to something like two thousand men and women of the mid-60s. We will have money to tell you of the plans of these United Greene in the next issue of this paper. These groups should be commanded. Let us hope this will be the only step still taken in the section of毫不懈怠 among our large people. Guscino, C. R. On Sunday, May 4th, the La. African Branch of Idaf, N. I. A. held a pleasant meeting at Liberty Hall in celebration of Garvey's Day. The meeting was well attended. Several addresses were delivered, including the reading of the biography of the Hon. Marus Garvey, from the "Philosophy and Opinion." The audience showed their appreciation of the meeting by plying rapt attention through the entire proceedings. The meeting was called to order by the President, Mr. J. Barbies, with the processional light "Shine On Eternal Light," followed with the opening ode, Acting as chaplain, he continued the ritualistic exercises. The hymn "God of the Right," was sung and brought the devotional part of the meeting to a close. Resorting to the temporal part of the meeting, the president made a short and enthralling speech which he introduced Mr. S. Watson, as chairman of the evening. Mr. Watson was greeted with cheers as he rose. He made a few remarks, and continued the program as follows: The president made the closing remarks, thanking the friends for their presence. The meeting was brought on by the Ethiopian National Anthem. The weekly mass meeting of the Garvey Club Division No. 910, of this city of brotherly love, was held at our meeting headquarters. The meeting was called to order in the usual way which marked the beginning of a gala afternoon which included selections by the Garvey Club Board, morpheous music by the Garvey Club show and very sublime by the President J. S. Gromo, who spoke on general topics of the day, and Mr. C. V. Norman, in a very energetic young man who long ago engaged the spirit of "African for the African those 64 home and those abroad," and to state has not failed and has not grown weary of adding his people. The leading of the front page of "The Negro World," which expressed the feeling, thoughtfulness, watchfulness and consideration of the war and only President-General, the Hon. Martin Garvey, was read by the reporter, which put him, vigor and vitality in its listeners. An illustration by chart was made by the Reverend Mr. Short of this division which also was a tremendous success. A wonderful selection and the singing of the Negroh only true National Anthem by the Gerry Club Band and members married the close of a marvelous afternoon. JOHN HUDGINS, Reporter. Toronto, Can.

Our activities here have been greatly crippled since December 11th, 1920 when notice was served on the president of the division by the governmental authorities, to cease functioning. Such an act was quite a disappointment to the members and friends of this world-wide movement and served to eclipse, though partially, the development of plans for the division's progress. The very first act of the executives of the division, on learning of their misfortune, was to seek an interview with the gobernador of the province to withstay the immediate order for a couple of days during which time they could arrange division matters. These were unsuccessful in their efforts to have a breathing time and so a petition was sent to the Secretariat de Gobierno at Havana, but with no success. We are still Garveyites fighting, in the cause that shall bring about a better harmony in the great human family of the races, and lay waiting to step over the numerous obstacles that must come our way to test our true spirit and determination in the cause we expense, for we are not the least discouraged. Many a word was said for and against the propriety of the division when the news was first heard, but coward filled the hearts of everybody when on Sunday nights they realized that they had nowhere to go and enjoy service. The very indifferent, standing outside of Liberty Hall on Sunday nights, who used to interrupt the mass meetings by introducing their depreciable behavior, realized that they have lost a privilege, though an indignant pleasure, that no other society in the neighborhood offers. The Negro population of this town had never spent to poorly a Christmas Season on the last. Had it not been for the Anniversary Service of one of the fraternal bodies here, Christian Sunday would have been passed with nothing to marry its advent. This event was a very pleasurable one. There was beauty in the array of the many populous, pump and nobility mixed with sincerity in the performance of the preliminary rites and satisfaction from the literary part of the program. The U. N. T. A. was represented by its chair and a delegate. It is very pleasing to state that most of the members of this body are also members of the division; hence the spirit of Garveyism was not absent. The new year has just stepped in and our most sincere prayer is that the divisions closed down be reopened as early as ever; for the salvation of the Negro reats solely on our achievements collectively. Editor's Note:—Mr. Howlitt's prayer has been granted according to the communication from Cuba, printed on the editorial page of this issue. We hope and urge that Garrylism will spread with greater rapidity throughout Cuba. NOTICE!

Guantanamo, Cuba On Sunday, April 6th, 1986, our literary meeting was called in order at 1:15 p.m. by the President, Mr. W. Fitter, with the singing of the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountain," and prayer by the chaplain, Mr. H. Miller, followed with the singing of "God of the Right, Our Battles Flight," after which the ritualistic ceremony was performed by the chaplain, Hymn No. 128 from the ritual was sung, which closed the spiritual part of the meeting. The other part of the program was tuped over to the President, who gave his opening address and appealed to the members who are non-financial, to make themselves financial, and those friends who are not enrolled as members to make themselves members, and to support the movement, so that our motherland Africk may be redeemed, for it is only through their financial help that the program can be put over. The President-General's hymn "Father of All Creation," was sung followed by an address by our Liberty Hall hero, Master Carlos Manners, who explained to his hearers the duties of all the past emancipators, last, but not least, of the Hon Marcus Garvey. "Duet by Miss C. Hillhouse and Matthias "Hark, My Soul;" recitation by little Claudie Hillhouse, address by Miss Adina Braithwaite, 2nd Lady Vice-President; reading of a part of "The Blackman," dated March 29th, 1930, by the President, Mr. Alexander Frederick relative to the appeal case of the 1930.

Manners; announcements by the President, singing of the Ethiopian Anthem and prayer by the chaplain, brought an enjoyable meeting to a close at 10:45 p.m. On Sunday, Just 1st, which is "Garvey's Day," an extraordinary mass meeting took place at 73 West 133rd street (corner of Lenox avenue, one flight up). Our members and friends turned—out with a spirit of determination, which shows progress. The spirit of "Garveyism" was well permeated into the minds and hearts of everyone. Our meeting was started in the usual manner by the singing of the Procesional Hymn, "Shine On Electronic Light," followed by the peper from the Rittish. We had a solo by Mr. Leo Wynter, in his usual element manner. "Next was a soul stirring address by Miss Rena Powell, our next Lady President, 'Our Little Tiger from Cincinnati,' which was enthusiastically received. We were next favored with another wonderful address by Mr. Samuel Million Grant, in his usual manner. We had another wonderful inspiring address by our focal organizer, Mrs. Melissa Smith, and the topic was "Our leader has been tested and found true, and he is the one whom God has appointed to come out from among our brethren and lead the race of ours. And Mr. B. B. Knowlde and drunk in the cup with us. And now he has betrayed the race. Let all Negroes unitely stand for this movement for it is true, and Bail for Freedom." Next was the singing of the hymn, "Oh, African, Awakened." We had many great speeches in the person of Mr. Birchfield Jr. to Johnson Afric, Mr. Samuel Melz, Miss Patton, and M. Dale. After a very inspiring meeting the program was brought to a close by our President, Major St. William Grant, who also was the principal speaker of the evening. Next was the singing of the "Ethiopian National Anthem." Meetings are held every Sunday and Wednesday at S. p. m. sharp. Excelsior Division The Excelsior Division No. 114, celebrated Garvey's Day, June 10, iff a magnificent manner. After the ritualistic part of the meeting was over, the program was as follows: Remarks by the acting president, Mr. J. E. Samuel, who occupied the chair for the evening. Reading of the Negro World by Mr. Balfour Williams, secretary of the division; a reading by Mrs. Clarke received much applaise: solo by Mrs. Hamilton, who thrilled her hearers to the utmost, she was accompanied at the plano by Prof. Woods; a solo from Mrs. Boyce, accompanied by Miss DeMeana, also came in for a lot of applaise; there was also a solo from Mrs. Douglas, very well rendered. Lleut. Henry spoke very briefly, but ally, on the "Pto- runner." Mr. Oscar Biggins also spoke short and ally. Next we heard from Mr. Mudgill authority on foreign affairs, and Acting Editor of The Negro World, who said in just one act: "The trouble with most organizations is caused by the self-making spirit that lead. I appeal to the woman to take up the cause of the junior organization. The responsibility of women are not merely personal but political. We men should become leaders. All leaders other than Garvey, however, are only local politicians. Garvey, however, has vision and does not work for local post-offices, etc., alone, but*for the interest of the entire Negro race. Follow him: His program is bound to win.* After the collection was taken, the principal speaker of the evening, Mr. Sal, of Africa, was introduced. Among other things, he said: "I am not a member of this organization, but that does not mean that I am a bad Negro. You have the honor and the privilege of following Garvey, who is the greatest man I've ever seen. All the weaker peoples of the world have awakened through Marcus Garvey's doctrine. The people of Africa are following Garvey daily. Why don't you stand together for universal brotherhood? Garvey wants "Africa for the Africanan." Come to us, and we will receive you as brothers. I shall be in Africa soon, where I hope to meet you, coming not as tools but as men—to build for yourselves." The singing of the Ethiopian Anthen- brought the meeting to a cliff Moron Division The officers and members of the Moreno division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association beg to announce the "Treatievable" loss of Brother Witamun Hunt, Chaplain and Sergeant-Major of the Legions of this division, who, after a short illness, passed into eternity at 5:30 a.m. on May 21. As a social worker, his service has been invaluable to the division and the community in general. He was widely known as a violinist and actor. After spending an enjoyable Easter season with us, he was intended to stage a series of performances. But the inevitable dwaited him, for he had not gone far when fever-lurked in his path, and eventually stopped his career. He was compelled to return to town, and in twelve days from date of the attack, death-filed its claim. All the units of the division, accompanied by the various societies made an impressive spectacle as they marched to the cemetery; while the band played the death march, to pay the respects of the dead. We tender our condolence to his bereaved relatives and friends in Jamaica, and may be rest in peace. Négro's Economic Status Explained in Tien Peng WASHINGTON: D. C. S. M. Rutherford, president of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, one of the leading business men of our group, issued for publication this week the following statement of the status of the American Negro with reference to acquiring economic independence. 1. The Negro helped to discover, to explore and to defend this country. He is therefore entitled to the opportunity to earn an honest living in his native land. 2. Any economic system which omits the Negro or handicaps him in making a living is not American and is also unjust. 3. The Negro deserves at least as much consideration as the hyphenated Americans, and foreigners who in time of a crisis are not loyal to the flag. The Negro has never been a traitor. 4. It is not fair to keep a man poverty-striken, and then blame him for the crime of making a living by illegal means. A man will stand before he reaches the extremity of starvation. 5. After all is said and done, however, the Negro must solve his own problem not by seeking sympathy or appealing to others. He must find himself. 6. Proceeding in a sentimental way, the jobless Negro may find employment here and, there among the whites, but the only hope for permanent jobs is to develop them among ourselves. 7. Negroes must learn to cooperate in establishing business enterprises of their own and must give them unstinted support. In this way we can live in this country. Otherwise we are doomed to die. 8. Every time a Negro develops to the extent that he can give another a job he helps to solve the race problem and he becomes one of those who will save his race from economic extermination. 9. If the crude Chinaman can come from his native land and become independent here by developing the hand laundry, which is not known in his own country, the Negroes must get busy and do at least as well. 10. If the persecuted Jew can come from Russia and control practically all the business among Negroes by taking over stores on the corners of their streets, the Negroes should try to profit, by their example. LINCOLN BOSTON TERMINAL BOW WEST TERMINAL, N. W. G. BOSTON TERMINAL-GOVERNMENT Hospital - Management - Language Equip All Year - Spelling no痕损 Boston Bay Region Day Time Boston Bay Region Night Time Sunday, May 4, being Gervais day, a special program was arranged which added greater splendid and significance to the day. The day was graced by a popularity contest and mock wedding held at Ceres Hall, Troy Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., at 4 p.m. under the splices of the East Brooklyn Division of the U. N. I. A. and A. C. L. (August, 1929) of the World, directed by Mrs. H. Hay and I. H. Mitchell. Never in the history of the East Brooklyn Division was there a more elaborate program arranged. The hall was beautifully decorated to suit the occasion, with a main street leading from the hallway to the artistically decorated basilie, wherein stood two beautifully decorated chairs of royalty draped with the colors of the Red, Black and Green. The hall was filled to its capacity, with friends and followers of our organization eager to behold the African King who was to marry the winner of the contest. At 4:30 o'clock the chairman, Mr. Herman Mitchell, opened the meeting and after the ritualistic ceremony was over the following musical and literary program was rendered: Opening remarks by the chairman, Mr. H, Mitchell; selection by the versatile players, directed by the able and efficient leader, Mr. Claude Green; instrumental solo by Miss Ruby Cumberache; recitation by Miss-Salomi Williams; recitation by Master Clarence Dalrymple; monologue duet, Jenaima Corsbilt; rectification by Edmund; vocal solo, Miss Irène Miller; orchestra; violin duet, Mr. H, Mitchell and others; vocal solo, Mrs. Salomi Williams; monologue, Mrs. W.

"Royal Couple" At this juncture, the musical and literary part was brought to a close, and the names of the contestants were called. Miss Funice Jackson was declared by the chairman as the winner of the contest, she having the most votes. After a short while the orchestra stopped its feeling music and all eyes were turned towards the entrance when a beautiful spectacle of charming ladies and pretty costumes was seen slowly but gracefully entering the hall, under the strain of the harmonious orchestra as it played slowly, "Here Comes the Bride." On the other side the King entered gorgeously dressed in his costume, with his glittering crown on his head and a staff in his hand. When they met, before the altar to be joined together, it was a scene of palace and prince. The matrimonial ceremony being performed by Rev. Lovierie the King and the Queen were crowned in the middle of bloom on the left and the King's guard of honor on the right. The hand played the Philippian National Anthem. After this the reception was begun, the music being cakes and wine. Seated in the curtains the following: Master Curtie Heggadon, Risehearer; Miss Charliss Green and Mrs Treen Marshall, flower girl; Mrs Larvine Falton and Miss Edith Edinhead, bridesmaid; Mrs Suele Lowery, maid of honor; Mr. Edwin Hoy, Mr. Annette McFuston and Mr. Arnold Grafford, best man; Mr. Thomas Benjamin, father; Miss Mary Horston, trail bearer and nurse in waiting; Miss Bunnie Jackson, bride, and Mr. Aston Roberts, groom.

XXVII. NEW YORK, JUNE 7, 1930 No. 19 THE NEGRO WORLD DEFENSE FUND WHAT would you do if you were told by your doctor that you are going to lose your voice—which means that you are going to become dumb and speechless—by a malignant disturbance in your organism? Why, you will not hesitate to save your voice, cost what it may! Just as your voice is personally of utmost importance to you so also is THE NEGRO WORLD, the voice, the mouthpiece of the race of which you, the readers are a proud member. Let us recapitulate what we said about the significance of this great racial vocal organ. We said, "The NEGRO WORLD is more than a newspaper. It not only informs, but it also inspires. It is not simply so much paper and ink, but race consciousness itself. It really sets the Negro to think and think right. And what is more, the voice of the Negro, the hopes of the Negro, the aspirations of the Negro, the agonies of the Negro the world over—are all interwoven in the columns of THE NEGRO WORLD." Now, as the readers are already aware, some malignant force, some self-seeking persons have tried, without success of course—Heavens be thanked—to destroy this powerful and great VOICE of the awakened Negro, so that our historic race might remain DUMB, SPEECHLESS, HELPLESS and DISORGANIZED, so that those self-seekers will have a free field to satiate their greed. Will they succeed? Not as long as there is a Negro who is proud to be a Negro, eager to be and become a MAN and ready to make any sacrifice so that our beloved Africa may be redeemed soon and established as an INDEPENDENT NATION of the PROUD BLACK MEN. Not as long, we firmly believe, as there is a Negro who knows that the only leadership that would redeem Africa from its accursed oppressors is the leadership of the GREAT MARCUS GARVEY and that the only organization that would make of Africa the PRIDE of mankind is the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Sons and daughters of Glorious Africa, real men and women of the Proud Negro race, hasten with your financial help to save the VOICE of the RACE, The Negro World: It has been forced to resort to litigation so that no more self-seeking race-betrayers should approach its premises, and that means unwarranted expenses. We once again appeal to all the awakened Negroes, men and women, to step forward and help The Negro World with substantial contributions; so that this Great Organ—mouthpiece of the Race—shall continue to serve the children of Ham with unfinishing loyalty and zeal. The Great Cause of Redeeming Africa must be broadcast, advocated and fought for, and REMEMBER that only the Negro World can do that, only the Universal Negro Improvement Association can do that. DEMOCRACY THE IRRESPONSIBLE IT IS considered that a Democracy means a responsible government. But is it really so? When we merely look at an elected official by the "will" of the people we are inclined to think that the said official is responsible to the electorate which is supposed to be divine, all-minded and all-mending. But if you penetrate beneath the surface of things what will you find? Take for instance the President of the United States. By whom is he nominated? By the will of the people? Surely not. It is by the will of a group (called a parry) which nominates a man that best promises to take care of their interests in the best possible manner. And what do the great people of the United States know about the man nominated in the majority of gases? Most of the time they are not asked to exercise their "will" but are confronted with two alternatives (good or bad) to choose from. Or take the candidate for the House of Commons. He is nominated by one of the parties and sent to a district to be elected. But the people of that district know actually very little of him. And yet he is elected by the "will" of the people! Once elected they need not care to be responsible unless they are chronic office-holders. In the United States they cannot be removed from office however irresponsible until their term of office is over. And in England generally not until the Parliament is dissolved—not by the "will" of the people, mind you, but by the political sagacity of the parties which are perpetually intriguing for the plum. But the greatest irresponsibility shown by democracies is in the field of colonial politics. There the people of a democracy are putting a claim of pride if all goes well, but quickly deny all responsibility if something goes wrong in their colonial administration. Who gets the blame nobody knows. The result is that the injured people have no responsible tribunal to seek redress from but from the very oppressive officials who were the source of their plight. Imagine the people of the United States being responsible for the imperialistic adventures of their government in the Philippines or in the Caribbean. Again imagine the British people being responsible for their misgovernment in India or in various parts of Africa. That isn't the practice! And yet when bloody revolts flare up the peoples of such democracies have actually the nerve to say that such tragedies would not have taken place if they only knew! Democracies are strangely irresponsible, because they have formed a chronic habit of exercising their "will" without knowing or understanding what they are doing. Irresponsible democracies tend to prolong the agonies of the oppressed peoples of Africa and elsewhere. "PROSPERITY" the commerce and trade of the world all over is today disorganized. Depression is stirring in the face of all industrial nations, accepting the pledge Anglo-Saxon nations, Great Britain and the United States—the two "adopts" in business organization. What is the cause of this depression? How will it be cured, if curbed The prosperity of the industrial nations was built upon the world and blood of the multinational nations and peoples of the world, especially of Africa and Asia. The markets of the latter continents were the sacred preserves of the great industrial nations of the west. But . . . Now the people of Africa and Asia are awakened, and they declare from the housesteps that they refuse to be exploited any longer. They are trying to produce what they want, and with great success in China and India despite many handicaps. And that means cutting off of the markets which actually supported the greedy capitalists and the high-standard-of-living, hugely workingmen of the west. Well, have we hit upon the source, of depression? Think of the Chinese boycott which brought Japan and Britain to their knees. Think of India and the present boycott there of all the British gopda. Markets are the softest spot in the armor of the present industrial civilization. Attack them successfully, as India is now going, and you will send even the giant among the imperialistic nations reeling to the ground. You cannot cure the present depression the world over by repeating "Prosperity will come back in the Spring. Prosperity will come back in the Fall." That is self-deception, pure and simple. You can have no more prosperity by invocation than you can have rain by invocation. When will prosperity come back then? When all the oppressed nations are freed and allowed liberty to organize their life in their own light, and when world production is readjusted to those infinitely changed circumstances. And those circumstances will force the white race to wholesale revision of its concept of prosperity. We wonder if the good old prosperity will ever come back! SALT OF WISDOM FROM AFRICA Wisdom 'makes no distinction of the color of skin'—A modern Hindu Poet. Editorial Opinions of the Negro Press A man may be born to a heritage, but, wisdom comes only with length of days. A corner in the world of sense is better than a corner in the world of spirits. Boasting at home is not valor, parade is not battle. When war is seen, the valiant will be known. Though a man may miss other things, he never misses his mouth. Character is shown in travel, bravery in the battle. His opinions, are like water in the bottom of a canoe, going from side to side. Ordinary people are as common as grass, but good people are dearer than an eye. The belly is the father of the gods! When you find a safe road, follow it a long time. HOOVER-ROOSEVELT Theophele Roosevelt, when President, admitted that he did not know whether or not he acted, wisely in asking Bopker Washington to lunchon. The fact remains that Bopker T. received the only invitation. Mrs. Hoover invited Mrs. Oscar DePriest to attend a White House tea last year. Dixie raved, and this year's tea has been twice postponed. One postponement took place after the invitation had been extended to the President. Before the scheduled time, the affair was cancelled, due to the illness of the late Chief Justice Taft and to the accident which befell Mrs. Hoover when she fell and injured her hip. Mr. Taft has been mourned a month, but invitations have not been refused for Mrs. Hoover's tea or for the usual Congressional Reception at which the President greets all members of Congress and their families. It begins to look as though Mr. Hoover had taken a leaf from the book of Roosevelt. If he has, he must do one of two things—either snub the Drepteans or keep up the postponements.—Afro-American. THE FLEA IN BRISTISH COLLAR The Kansas, City, American announced the discovery of "The Flea in British Collar," in the following editorial: "Two dark men, each of whom names begin with G," for some years have been a flea in the collar of Great Britain. Or it may be that a thorn in the flesh while a bit stronger might be more appropriate. Both men have been jailed but that has proven unsuccessful as a remedy, for their ideas, persist in roaming at large. Murder, hanging, and burning at the stake have proven quite as ineffective in times past. The execution of John Brown at Harper's Ferry failed to destroy his ideas about slavery. Seven hundred years after the execution of Robert Emmett, the Irish patriot, his declaration made on the scaffold that some day Ireland should be free, came true. And because a man was willing and ready to make the supreme sacrifice the world today acknowledge the Christian religion. Marcus Garvey in the western world and the Mahatma Gandhi in the eastern, have planted the seed of the Indian independence races. Jailing them will not incarcerate the ideals which they have inculcated and planted in the hearts of their fellowmen. England should try a simpler remedy. Let them make salt might be one. A penny tax on tea led to the making of the strongest nation in the world and Great Britain was the looser. ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE AND JOBS A few weeks ago Los Angeles was said to be in the throes of an economic revival, the end of which was to give the Negro economic independence. A great deal of force and enthusiasm was manifested as parades were organized and speeches made. At that time we suspected that the outlaws were world wear off and that the white people would end in a fireball. The police were able to be disciplined by the fact that they had to be killed, anything that pitted against the group was in the interest of the police. A he will give blossom, but no fruit. Silence is healthy: He who does not worry about living will die without worries. He who wants to beat his dog will always find a stick. The thief is he who is caught. A smile wins a smile. The fire that burns is the same that warms you. A man falls with his shadow. War is a cow that one milks in the midst of thorns. The potter cooks his food in an old broken pot. Regular work tires a woman but wrecks a man. However forgetful one is, one never forgets one's own mouth. Who marries a beautiful woman marries torment. News is interesting in the mouth of him, who brings it. what were the results of the wide publicity and speech making that unhered in that drive? We would like to know how much nearer economic independence the Negro is now than he was before the talk started. As far as we can see those organizations which were to be benefited are at their same stance with their same volumes of business. We have not seen any evidences of new commercial enterprises. We are not interested in asking these questions to chat any reflection on those who were 'responsible for the so-called movement for economic independence. We think that they were wise. What we want to point out is that there was no real understanding of the Negro's economic problems manifested in the movement. The mistake was made of assuming that the Negro can begin to solve this problem at the top instead of at the bottom. It is very well to dream of large commercial enterprises which will compete with established business institutions and to talk of demanding our rights, but such talk is bound to end in an impasse because it neglects fundamental economic laws. If the Negro is to build blindness institutions he must found them on a solid financial basis. As a laboring group we must insure the laborer wages which will leave a margin that can be put in long term investments. Underpaid labor and unemployed men cannot finance commercial institutions. Financial economic problem which faces the colored man of the west is the disposal of his wages at satisfactory terms. All other problems must swait the solution of that one problem. So long as the Negro in California is insecure in the matter of jobs that long is his economic position insecure. Meetings, parades and speeches will not cure those lills. Angelenos must bend their efforts to remedying those deployable conditions which deny them their fair share of the labor of this community. A part of the problem is bound up with the distribution of the jobs, another part is dependent on how the jobs are handled after they are secured. Nor is it enough that isolated jobs be secured for individuals, one position or a half dozen, for that matter, will help ten thousand job seekers arise. The mass of laborers must be bled for, they are working much at a working wage economic independence will be a reality. California News. White Police. Natives WORCHESTER, South Africa—Seven policemen and a white captain were killed in a battle with natives, here last week. Though trouble has been brewing for more than a year, the immediate cause of the outbreak is said to be the arrival of Major Thomas, chief of Capetown police, to investigate a riot that took place April 4. The police are now investigating when he had seen leading a riot at the last meeting of the African National Congress, the same friend assigned the police with natives, clerks and revolutioners. The police opened fire but were finally compelled to retreat, leaving their clues and wounded in the streets. Police were so shocked that the were running in the grassland and running with the blood of Bats hibernating. Drum out the past. Not knowing of their doom As giant age. As hissing snake. As tawny skelab baboon. Please publish this as a true report of the conference called by the First Assistant President General, Hon. E. B. Knox. In answer to certain rumors that all Presidents who took part in the Chicago conference were in clique to defeat Mr. Garvey, to seize and remove the Negro World in New York, etc. I want the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to understand that I knew nothing of this conference until three days before the calling of the convention, a formal communication came to the Gary Division from the Hon. E. B. Knox inviting all the Presidents of the Divisions in the United States of America including the Gary Division's president to attend said conference in Chicago, May 6th, 7th, and 8th inclusive. Two weeks before this letter arrived in Gary, however, a certain president had it rumored in Gary that a conference was going to be called in Chicago to outlaw the Gary Division because it was not loyal to the Hon. E. B. Knox. Members here were all upset relative to said conference, as it was further rumored that a plot was laid to get me away from the Gary Division as President or bomb me away. I immediately called a meeting on Tuesday night prior to my leaving for this conference as I could not attend before Tuesday because of the recent primary election here in which the Gary Universal Political Union took part. I was warned in that meeting by members of the organization not to go to said conference as they believed bodily harm might be done to me. For in said meeting officers and members reported what was told to them personally about me in the conference. However, I persisted, in going because I felt that I was right and was willing to die, if necessary, in upholding the principles of our organization. I arrived in Chicago on Wednesday the 7th and took part in the fourth session of the conference. I want to report here that during my entire stay in the conference nothing was discussed relative to The Negro World. Stating the truth, a resolution was presented to be sent to the Hon. Marcus Garvey and the high Executive Council asking that Mr. Knox be given absolute control of the American wing of the organization, which I opposed on the grounds that Mr. Knox was elected the 1st Assistant President General of the U. N. A. of August 1929, of the world, and not of the national American body, therefore, he had no title an American leader and the American wing of the organization and no control over him; that if anything happens to the President-General at our headquarters in Kingston, Jamestown, Mr. Knox can be called in immediately to perform the duties of President-General. Therefore, he was an international officer as was construed by the last convention. As far as I could ascertain, said conference was powerless to put anything in operation as the conference was ordered by a nominal vote to submit everything to the President-General and the executive council for approval. I want to state here that I challenged the 1st Asst. President-General and a certain president who, spread the rumors in Gary that I was to be eliminated from the Gary Division as not loyal] to Mr. Knowl to state to the members of the conference my diss loyalty in a very heated discussion. It brought no evidence of my disloyalty but jealousy on the part of certain officers because of my stand in Gary for the support of our ideas of our organization, for which I was the recipient of a broken jaw, the displacing of three of my front teeth and eight billethes on my neck which no doubt was pre-arranged. Had it not been for the letters that I have received from various divisions in the county asking the truth of the conference and had the minutes of the conference been printed in The Negro World as requested, I would not have dared to undefend these statements. In passing let me state that the officers and myself were rived at the office by Mr. Williams joked me in Gary from Knoxville, Turn. to attend mild conference. We stuck together through think and this, and had it not been for him, I might have been an obstinate trouble today. payees on the conference and what ever they have benefited from it we received in long minutes the way their life changed. Never forget in the legislation I will give attempt to force on the章 the Division. I hope our readers will understand that I am not courting the friendship of anyone in this article. I have no friendship to keep and no enemies to punish but a sincere desire to give the people the truth as the good book records it. "We shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." Thanking you for space, Mr. Editor, Youra for Africa's Redemptum. The Poor, Suffering Classes in Jamaica Correspondent in Boca Fees That Jamaican at Home Have Lost a Great Opportunity by Not Electing Marcus Garvey to Legislature Mr. Editor: Sits--Permit me a space in your valuable journal to make a few observations on conditions in my native land. Jamicans of the second and third ranks are being held down, so much in subordination that they fail to appreciate that which is good, but we who have traveled abroad have thrown off the yoke of oppression by means of traveling experience, in so much that we have got to congratulate Mr. Garvey for the various suggestions that he placed before the Governor for the betterment of the poor and suffering classes of people in Jamaica: They have rejected him from being one of our legislators but we are certain that the day will come when they shall regit it as Esau who sold his birthright for a morsel of food and afterwards searched with tears for it and could not find it. Commercially and industrially, practically two-thirds of Jamaica is belonging to the English-people, and only one-third to the Negro. If Negroes in Jamaica elect white men to represent them or a black man who is ashamed to be called a Negro, how can they expect to get their rights protected. The people in Jamaica have played the part of fools in the past, by selling out their commercial rights to the Chinese and the Syrians and have caused poverty to come down on them in our own island. The consequence was that many, had to flee to Central and South America to seek a livelihood. Now that the government of these Republics have closed their doors against us, what are we going to do? Remain in poverty and get in prison for overdue taxes when we had men of our own type who were capable and honest enough as gentlemen to legislate their own cause. I have traveled fifteen cities of the various 'Republics of Central and South America, and find that the laboring men are better compensated in these places than they are in Jamaica; even the women who have traveled these parts and work as waitresses, laundresses, nurses, cooks and nurses, are well paid. The wargs for a male is from $20 to $30 per month, for a waitress from $25 to $40 per month, for a hairstress from $20 to $25 per month, for a nurse from $25 to $30 per month, for a cook from $25 to $40 per month. These positions carry all necessary privileges, have never been met, to them in good condition. We hope that they will wake up from their death sleep in the near future. Thanking you, Editor for your valuable space. I am. Editors, The Negro World: Dean Sir: Actuated by your entreaty, and by the timely article written by Mr. A. S. Gray, which I do heartily agree with, please find an accept herein enclosed $1.00 for The Negro World, the "eye of the cobra." Yes, there are some Negroes who contend for jobs for Negroes, then sneak about and tell the employer what color they should be. I do not mean to imply that such is the case with regard to a certain journal here in Chicago. If our people got only three jobs from white people, where the volume of Negro trade commands, the employment of help I (do not think) would be better off. Negroes give (as a rule) more and better service for less money, or pay, than can generally be gotten elsewhere. There are certain of our people who do not like jobs. They seem to dislike all of those types of people whom certain whites dislike. The Jew is a hard man to deal with. He is a hard burgerman. He is always seeking to take the advantage and still he, is not as bad at heart as appears on the surface. He is a Jew, a buyer, a tradesman, an individualist. He is cheap but he must always have something to do. The prejudice against him in certain quarters, is so intense that it seems the offspring of Jethro Pharaoh he can he offspring in the Middle Ages, prejudice of the other doyle. MARKETING AND MARKETING Some steam engines have been used for the manufacture of steam and are now used for the manufacture of steam locomotives. The steam is used to operate them. The steam may be in a pumping or a grate and churning them. It is a universally accepted fact that James Watt was the inventor of the steam engine. The little history of the steam engine is told in the little book he published by one Mr. Robert Conehaw. Here is his version: James Watt was the inventor of the steam engine. "His patients were for 'improvements in the steam engine; and as far back as 1764 he had been watching the NEWCOMEN steam engine pumping mine water. "Watt's principal improvement was the condenser. He knew the NEWCOMEN engine well, long before his patient data. As at the time of his earliest invention the crank was patented by some one else, he had to resort to another mechanical movement. It was not Watt who watched the tea kettle lift its lid by the force of the steam therein, but the Marquess of Worcester." Woe to the mythmakers. No wonder they hate the scientific historians whose sole hobby is to puncture the balloons of myths. There is no activity of human beings that has not given rise to myths. His religion, development, his ideals, sims, vision, passions, his strength, weakness—all have been the occasions of myth-making. Myth-making, like everything else has two sides. In its better aspect it is invigorating, inspiring and ennobling. In its dire aspect it breeds superstition, ignorance and fear. When myth-making enters the domain of the lives of a people of a country and the myth-makers are the alien oppressors of that people or country it becomes one of the worst curses put upon man. All the oppressed people of today are subject to the tyranny of the western myth-makers, who are otherwise known as propagandists. And the Africans are easily the most affected victims of the white man's propaganda. The white man has used the Bible, bread and bullets to spread his propaganda all over the world and sow the seeds of misunderstanding not only between nations and nations and peoples and peoples but between families and families and among the same and one people. It is alleged that the Negro in Africa is lazy, unintelligent, uncivilised, barbarous, savage and the worst of it all, a heathen, the latter of which only means that he does not profess Christianity as his religion but something else which he has always known and understood. All the charges made against the Negro either in Africa or elsewhere are wholly unfounded, untrue and malicious. They emanate from political, economic and religious considerations in which the so-called white men greatly interested. If you stop to consider why the white man is so eager to "civilize" the native African even by the use of machine guns you will find that he is immensely interested in only exploitation. And that exploitation he can carry on very effectively if he succeeds in planting fear in the hearts of the Negro and in breeding misunderstanding between one brother Negro and another. How many Negroes are there in the United States who do not accept in one form or another the white man's version of what the African Negro is. Is the Negro in the United States only looks at the life of his progenitors in Africa from the view-point of the Great African environment and of a broader and more extensive angle of life he will find that the life the African leads is full of charm and simplicity and therefore grand and interesting. The Negro who has been brought without contact with the western world without his will or constant has been brought as a Christian. He there looks like a bear. Africa with a lot of condensation which has been inculcated in him by all the agencies of Christianity. But does he stop to think whether the beliefs of the African Negro contain any spiritual truths? It would be surprising if they did not. While it may be true that the African Negro may go to a bigger and better heaven if he accepts Christianity he has in the meanwhile provided himself with an actually home-made heaven in which he is more apt to be happier than in a made-made religion imported by the white missionaries. The African form of religion is part and parcel of the sufferings and joys, aspirations and inspirations of the life in Africa. Coming back to our myth-makers they have divided the Negro in the United States, the West Indies and elsewhere about the Negro in Africa. One section believes in the ability, sagacity and uniqueness of the Negro in Africa, and the other one nothing but helplessness as long as the African Negro does not accept western invading religion. THE BEST OFFER FOR THE YEAR With a year's subscription to our paper we will give you a copy of the book on the life of the world's only Negro Heavyweight Champion. Mr. Benson, No. 2, the women are getting ready, and his friends in his pack in training by June 15th. I feel deeply sorry for the Kid, because he really understands when he is in there doing his work. Without the Pun Special actually in service, hearing seems to lose its stance. Real good boys are so terribly scared nowadays, that one is forced to forget all about the game. This is indeed too bad, as there are quite a number of people in the greater city, that enjoy nothing better than a good box contest. Take Harry Smith. He has the hardest time, getting assignments than Linden has making a hop. And why? Simply because he will not sell out. Is he too good for the Oaf boys that are in his division? We have another case in Al-Brown: When the promoters get so, that they do not care to give the boxing fans a run for their money, then boxing should go on the rocks and stay there. Boxing is one of America's main sports. It should be kept clean, and not even soiled. The true spirit of white American sports and sport-writers that are interested in boxing, does not seem to exist, as they make it a matter of race first, and give no consideration to the qualities or merits of those that are connected with this game from a professional point of view. Colored prize-fighters that are at the top of their respective vocation, paid dearly for their knowledge, and now to be shut off simply because, as it beats, they know too much, is too lowhanded. If they are to segregate the Negro entirely out of star attractions, then they should be brave enough to say so; and if they are too cowardly to speak out, then they should lose all interest in the boxing game, and allow those that may be more broadminded to take up the reins. The sooner this is done, the better, as the ill effects can be easily seen. The grumbling of the fans, both colored and white, regarding the raw desis that are handed colored fighters of class, if re-echoed to the press deks of sportwriters on the dalles, the rebound would probably shake them, to their senses of fair play.

Dekk, X-899, Cincinnati, Ohio With Representative Davies of Illinois, the only mayor of Congress, and Mayor James J. Walker, an invited guest of honor, the Lincoln Recreation Center at 160th Street, and Lexington Avenue, Harlem, was formally dedicated last night (Wednesday) as the largest negro-recreation center of its kind in the United States. On Decoration Day the recreation center which includes a ballroom, swimming pool, and palm and roof gardens, equipped with an elaborate RCA Victor centralized radio system which will furnish continuous music to dancers, dancers and swimmers, was opened to the public and is expected to become a principal gathering place for the negro residents of Harlem. Representative DePriest who came to New York from Washington was listed to deliver the principal address of the dedication ceremonies, while Ferdinand Morton, negro member of the New York Civil Service Commission, was to be another speaker. Frank Moore, 19th district Alderman, was master of ceremonies for the exercises. Other features on the proclamation were the musicians, representing every section of Harlem; negro dancers from the night clubs of that section, a pearl diving contest and a contest between a man swimmer and an alligator in the swimming pool. The centralized radio system furnishes radio broadcasts to every portion of the recreation center through a number of unique electro-dynamic loudspeakers, specially constructed in the visors of helmets of suits of armor. Through an automatic control device the centralized receiving apparatus of the super-heterodyny type keeps the speech and uniform uniform in volume, automatically compensating for any fading interference. A time clock arrangement at the central station automatically turns on the programs in the morning and off at night. In the ballroom of the recreation center the dance music will be furnished by a large Victor electric phonograph which automatically operates ten records continuously. Negro Art Theatre Presents 'De Promis' Lan'' at Carnegie By ROBERT GARLAND Under so grandiliquent a banner as the National Negro Pageant Association, the New Negro Art Theatre came last to Carnegie Hall and presented a something-or-other in two nets and southern mckenex. Its title was 'Do Promin Land' and the grueling spirit was the Forsyth College Winfield appended as college in Greenwich Village not to no very long ago. In the great open spaces of what is perhaps the home of auditorium so 'Do Promin Land' was not so 'ultra' a production as programs insisted. There was some excellent, though misdirected, singing. There was some dancing in the dark which might have been interesting with the lights turned on. And there was an interude called "Minine" in which Mr. Lerri Lorre outdid himself in horror. But, more often than not, you imitated Mr. Joseph Allen of "The Tawent" and basked what all the smoothie was for. The reply, I suspect, is that Mr. Winfield tried his hand at a sort of dark-ish-high brow revue which failed, for want of a smaller auditorium, a larger audience and the rehearsals of which it was most distressingly in need. The high spot of the evening was Mr. Winfield's "Life and Death," an "emotional study in dance form." At their studies back stage during shows on Wednesday. Children of "The Green Pastures." Little members of the cast of the Pulitzer Prize Play, now playing to capacity houses at the Mansfield Theatre, New York. So that the children may prepare their school work, the management has provided a school room backstage, where the children can do their lessons. In the background, immature children are seated in a few of the theatrical mysteries.

Mr. Swaffer says: "I was very much impressed the other day by hearing on the wireless H. W. Peet's illuminating speech about the position of the Negro in the United States. It was amazing to hear of so much progress. "Yet, while Paul Robeson is rehearsing for 'Othello,' a part which I expect him to play with distinction, I am surprised, knowing all the circumstances, to learn that there is difficulty to sit there should sit on the first night of 'B. J. One. "These racial prejudices are hard to overcome. Thought changes slowly. "The manager argued with Maurice Browne that it would not be wise to put Mr. Robeson in the stalls. "If he is your guest," he said, "have him in your box. Then no one can say a word." At the candle, a box was found for the artifact. "It makes you realize the circumstances in which colored people are struggling toward equality. Robeson can come to my rooms, as he has come. I can have a metal with him in his house, as I have done. But he cannot sit in the stalls." Artists Pay Homage To Negro Mothers In Radio Program CLEIAGO, TH., May 29. — A Mother's Day program, arranged by Miss Loonidau L. Stratton and Mrs. Estella Patton-Cooper, was broadcast from Station WEAC, the World History Company's station at Chicago, Sunday, May 17th, and dedicated to Negro history through the land. The effect that this broadcast announced to the effect, sets a precedent in radio history, as it is the first time an hour was ever devoted to paying homage to Negro mothers. The music for the program was played by Claude Rhodes, and directed and announced by Jack L. Cooper, Chicago's only official radio announcer. The artists appearing on the program were: Henry Gillum and Chas. Ellison, Baby June Rhodes, the five year old radio wonder; Phil Scott of the team, "Short and Long," vaude stars; Ruth Smith, the Louisville nightingale; Fletcher Butler, Jr., pianist and singer of renown; Rose Summerville, late of Ziegfeld's "Showbuff," Lillian Goodner, Lovie Austin and Lola Porter, the record making man; Alex Swier; A.W. sein, the song and story; A.B. Brooks, the singing drugstri; Hendrietta Davis, record star; Buck Weaver, Jack L. Cooper rendered his own song, "You're a Mother Just the Same," and a specialty offering congratulations to all mothers, assisted by Claude Rhodes. Joseph Milverstein, owner of the station, deserves a lot of praise for his kindness in this memorable event. complacent passengers booked for Noah's Ark; next comes "flapper wood wing" that is native to the Garden of Eden scene" the pupils in the school are Philistine Bumgardner, Margery Bumgardner, Fredia Longshaw, Margerette.

'Peg-Leg' Bates Is Wealthy NEW YORK, May '23.—(ANP)—They'll never give a benefit for "Peg-Leg" Bates! Of all the stars of the theatrical firmament, here is one who stands alone, glimpse in that he has capitalized a misfortune which has stopped many a brave man. With a stump leg, cut off just below the knee, this young man is just about the niffles dancer on the stage. Using an ordinary peg leg, braced well, Bates executes steps which would shame the king of dancers. "There is nothing phony about his work; he doesn't use the peg leg for a support, he actually dances with it, Charleston, taps, does the "snakehips" and everything else other fellow does and some others can't do. "Apd he enjoys his work, too. When he is danced in, 'Blackbirds,' he was given as big a hand as Bill Robinson, Snake Hips, or any of the other big sheets. Apparently at the Alhambra this week, Bates tells his audiences, "I like to dance, don't sit there and sympathize with me, just give me the same thing you give the other tellers, jippism, and if you want mops of my dancing, chap your hands, so I will know it, and you'll pick your with." You can't beat that for gamemes, no matter how you try. And made from being game, made from being a wonderful dancer. Mr. Bates, a festive dresser, is also thrifty. Every evening, after the show, he drives away from the stage door in a nutty Mermon limousine, chaundied by an old timer, who although unharmed, as in Bates, was not quite as thrifty.

Paramount Cricket Joundaries BY DAROLD LEWIS Visiting West India Team Due Here June 23 On the word of the genial Mr. Sullivan, one of the officers of the Caribbean Intercolonial Sporting Association—on whose invitation the second invasion of the Islandand will be made—a powerful cricket team from the various islands of the West Indies, is scheduled to land on our hospitable shores, June 23. The personnel of the visitors, under the guidance of the Hon. S. Brathwaite, will be as follows: From Barbados, B. I. Glikes, W. Gibbs and Martindale; Trinidad, W. St. Hill Daniels and B. Sealy; Demarara, McKenzie and Chalbronow; Kitts, Berridge; Antigua, Jeffreys; Virgin Islands, Smith, St. Vincent, Edwards and possibly J. Parris from Grenada. It is unfortunate that Jamaica is not represented; but that island is no doubt in turmoil. For years they have envied the preeminence of Barbados in West Indian cricket, and now, due principally to the stellar playing of George Headly and the importation of salaried coaches, Jamaica has been elevated to the coveted dais. Visioning more triumphs for the dashing George - aided and abetted by his lesser satellites - on the Australian tour to be made this fall, they no doubt cannot see the advisability of even allowing the least of their stars to be contaminated by mingling with New York's "bat-and-ball" players.

Famous sprinter of the University of Michigan, was officially recognized today as the world's record-holder for seven-digit distance in cover the distance in less than 9-5 seconds in a well-authenticated race run without starting blocks. The little, bespectacled Michigan student was clocked at 9-5-10s, in the Western Conference-championships at Evanston, II. May 25, 1929. This performance was accepted by the International Amateur Athletic Federation this afternoon as the official world's record. Tolan's time, made in a memorable race in which he defeated among others, George Simpson of Ohio State, supersedes the 9-6-10s, figure which several sprinter were able to equal, but never to be officially in the long history of the sport. Charley Paddock once turned in a 9.5s, but it was refused recognition because the I. A. A. F. did not approve of tenth-second watches at that time. A 9 4-10s, performance by another Californiaian, Frank Wykoff, was too recent for submission to the present meeting of the international body. In addition to this, Tolan was credited with having equaled Charley Paddock's record of 10 4-10s. for the 100-meter dash on two occasions in his tour of Europe last year. De Hart Hubbard, former Michigan Negro star, was added to the list of those certified as having done 9 3-5s, for the 200-yard event.

May 29 — The Wiley summer school for football coaches will open Monday, June 9, and continue through Saturday, June 14, under the tutelars of F. T. "Big" Long, Wiley coach and athletic director for the past seven years. To date, a large number of applications have been received, and it is expected that more than 30 of 40 will be enrolled for this important course. Long needs no introduction to the southwestern football followers. The Wildcat mentor has captured four football championships during his stay here since 1923, and was crowned champion one of his two years at Paul Quich. Resourcefulness in the pinches has enabled his eleven to remain at or near the top during the past nine years. Pulling the unexpected has meant success for Long. Last year a well devised kick-off play enabled Big Ben Cavil. Wiley's all-American fullback, to get loose and dash 95 yards for a touchdown on the opening play of the second half in the game that brought the championship here for the third consecutive time. This play, along with many others, will be explained in detail. Coach Long will lecture two hours daily and then will give actual demonstrations on Wiley Field of the University of Texas at Austin. Lectures. Football will be covered from every angle and the new rules will be discussed. Judging from the number of high school coaches planning to attend this school, there will be plenty of competition in this section of the country next fail. BUSINESS IS A GAME, and we are all in it.

When "Ole" and Gray, a Young Maid Has a Fighting Vision and Resolves to Make Her Old Age Cheerful By D. CORDELIA BUSCH As the days of my youth pass away every twenty four hours and my ole and gray days grow nearer at sun set each and every day, my mind wanders far into the future wondering just what am I to do when I am ole and gray. Am I going to be shifting all through my life of youth and have to live from hand to mouth when ole and gray? Am I going to live this life alone without even a companion to share my burdens and cheers? As the days pass, by I observe many and many an ole and gray man laboring as hard in his youth, and this particular thing has caused me to wonder about my ole and gray days, when I should be living in ease and happiness. I wonder if these ole and gray men are the victims of laziness or the victims of adverse circumstances that they were unable to avert in their days of youth. Well, if they were the victims of either of the above, misfortunes, I am pleading with the youth of today to be wide awake and be more saving. If you are only able to save or lay aside a few pennies each hand every week, do it for your old and gray days are sure to come. When all alone just sit down and picture your ole, weak, feeble, and gray body having to toil from sun up to sun down for a pitiful bite of bread and meat. Please, just place yourself in the place of the ole and gray man that is working hard for a pitiful mite of bread and meat and instead of pitying him just work towards bettering your ole and gray days. Today, I am sitting in my office wondering just what am I going to do under the existing conditions when I am ole and gray. I have come to this one final conclusion; I will have to better my days while still young and prepare for those ole and gray days that are sure to come. I am now contemplating a new plan for my future days of youth. I am not only contemplating the new plan but I am going to put it into action within the next few months in order to live my years of youth for my ole and gray days.

It is a sign of awakening. Self-expression is a great thing. The Editor of the Negro World proposes to give hereafter a real opportunity to the youths (the older ones are not barred either) of the race to let the world know how they feel about life and its problems. Write in not more five hundred words your reactions, meditation, observation, interpretation, and what not, concerning life and the people that live it, whether Negroes or others, but from the viewpoint of the Negro. You may adopt any form of expression you please, essays, short stories, sketches, poetry, reminiscences or whatever inspires you. Write something interesting and worthwhile. All manuscripts must be typewritten on one side of the paper and double-spaced. Since manuscripts cannot be returned please keep copies of the same. Do not send stamps. These manuscripts if published, will not be paid for. I am planning to live my ole and gray days in happiness, peace and comfort in some beautiful home situated on some nice, still and quiet hill. I want to live, where I can enjoy all that nature has in store for an ole and gray person. I feel that when one has lived to that ripe ole and gray age that life should be of pleasure and happiness and not pain. At this point I am reminded of a verse or two of a poem "A Rainy Day." The day is cold and dark and dreary. It rains and the wind is never weary. My mind still clings to the moldering past. But the hope of youth falls thick in the blast. The day is dark and dreary. Are we going to sit idly by and let the above verse be our sole remembrance when we are ole and gray. I should say not! We are always going to remember this little verse that follows from the same poem in the days of our youth and put it into action so that our ole and gray days can be lived in happiness and ease. Behind the cloud in who's sun still Thy fate is the common fate of all. Into each life some rain must fall, some days must be dark and dreary. Let us make our dark and dreary days be in the days of our youth and our bright and clear days in our old and gray days. I am asking each and every order to give me life or her point of view about these old and gray days that we are sure to face in the near future.

WILLIAMS 901 Bengun Ave. FREE BEST. 5 Jersey City, New Jersey (This paper was awarded a prize of $100 in national high school contest conducted by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, of Atlanta, Ga. It was one of several thousand papers written by students on this subject - Editor). The human ingredients of this huge melting pot of ours have always been a source of keen interest to the student of humanity. To carefully analyze personalities, finally labeling and placing them on shelves as representatives of their countrymen, has ever been the delight of psychologists. Of ten Americans; we find nine who fit into their assigned places on the shelf; but the "tenth man" is a Negro—and a problem. Should this tenth man be placed on a lower shelf because his skin is darker than his neighbor's? Is his intelligence inferior to that of others, or is it merely a social aversion for close association with a "black man" that limits his progress? Let us see what we can find out. To learn that the first, Negroes came to our shores not as slaves in 1619, but as explorers fully a century before is somewhat of a surprise. Ancient records show that one of Columbus' three ships, the Nina, was piloted by a Negro, whose name, Alonzo Pietro, suggests all sorts of thrilling explorations and swash-buckling exploits. I like to think of the duky Alonzo, perhaps chanting some weird melody of his native Africa as his brawny arms guide the tiny ship through fearsome darkness to a new world. I would have his arrival in the new land symbolic of his people—sharing responsibility, danger, hardship, glory with their "brothers under the skin." Not as slaves, servile, ignorant, would I have them pictured in your mind, but as a simple, God-fearing, superstitious people whose loyalty and patriotism are shown equal to the white man's in the records of our country's wars. These people have given us the only claim we have to folk songs—the hauntingly beautiful Negro spirituals whose minor refrains sing of love and joy and sorrow, of bondage and freedom. We have profited by their inventions in the field of science, shared their discoveries, benefited by their literature... Why should not all these things unite white and black brothers in a closer union? Back in Colonial days, Phillis Wheatley's poetry was read in Europe as well as in the colonies; our affection for irresponsible Topsy has "grew" with the years; the heroic yet pathetic Uncle Tom will never lose his influence over our hearts; the simple Erie Rabbit stories delight every generation of children, and the Negro contribution to music will never be forgotten. And what have we given the Negro in return? Merely a grudging place in our affairs. To one who has played an important part in the growth and development of our great nation, do we not owe a chance to better himself, and the offer of a helping hand? We banished racial prejudice when we placed nine different nationalities on the shelf together. Let us place the Negro there equally, and make them Americans all, united in the common cause of Liberty, Fraternity, and Equality! VIENNA, May 23. The success which the Hampton Choir of colored students enjoyed in Leopon, Brussels and elsewhere was duplicated in Vienna tonight. Vienna, despite a reputation for musical conservatism—and already acclaimed Negro music when it was introduced some time ago by Paul Robeson and other soloists. A large audience tonight, including many representatives of the Anglo-American colony, gathered at the Konzerthaus. They were enthusiastic over the chorus work of the visitors, especially in Negro spirituals. Footprints, Ethiopian Welfare Foundation, Publishers—35 cents. This little pamphlet is a great inspiration for the rising generation of the Negro race. For it deals with the past glory of the race, of the great personalities it has produced, of its achievements and aspirations. Besides giving short, biographies of Queen Sheba, Hannibal, Punhkin, Alexander Dumas, Jr., L'ouverture, Phillis Wheatley and others, it is stuffed with touching and moving poems. This pamphlet is published by Ethiopian Welfare Foundation, not as a private money making proposition. The proceeds from the sale of this book will go to the support, the welfare and educational development of the Negro youth both in Africa and America and elsewhere. Every household should possess a copy of the Footprints to remind the youngsters in the family of their truly great past. Fine Music Festival At Salem M. E. Church New Yorkers were treated to a musical and dramatic feast on Thursday, May 29th, at Salem M. E. Church, when Evangelist Becton presented the World's Gospel Feast Party, assisted by the Salem M. E. Church, choir. National Negro stars were heard in a program that was full of interest from start to finish. Such eminent stars and great artists as: Mme. Honston-Berry Soprano; Mme. Temple, Dramatic Reader; Miss Louisa Howard, Soprano; Mrs Ruth Green Walker, Sopranc. The Southernaires: Male Quartet, Miss Thomasina, W. Tally and Mr. Clarence L. Francois, pianists were all loudly applauded for the excellent renditions. The ladies and gentlemen were fittingly dressed for this notable event given by Evangelist G. Wilson Becton. The church gaily decorated with beautiful flowers, presented a magnificent sight-long to be remembered by those who were fortunate enough to get in. The church was filled to its utmost capacity. Rev. Becton's last service will be Monday evening, June 2nd, much to the regret of his many followers.

THE CHATTAROGA MEDICINE CO., CHATTAROGA, TENN. Lo! They took the name, and lifted it out of its lowly setting, and planted it high upon the solid rock of achievement. By their deeds they secured power and compelled other races to gaze upon the name and respect those whom it identified. Their detractors soon discovered that the Bard of Avon was enlightened correct when he said, "A rose by any other name is just as sweet." The term Negro is today objectionable to some Negroes' because of the immediate and tragic past with which it is associated. To say Negro today is to recall slavery, persecution, disfranchisement, lynching, etc. If we decide to change our name, and at the same time permit these evils to haunt us, whatever name we may select will also become a badge of dishonor. The race would be far better off if we would bend our efforts toward dignifying the term "Negro" by making it stand for something beside contentment and conservatism, both in religion and politics. We can begin now by first recognizing that the term "Negro" has in it unlimited possibilities for realizing power and gaining the prestige any race may desire. These will come when the Negro in America decides to abandon his inferiority complex inherited from slavery, and raise his head up; when he understands that power is the only thing that counts in our present society and that we can never secure power by individually struggling for it; but that power is at our disposal whenever we decide as a group to come together on the common basis of the class struggle and join with all others who feel the need for social and economic justice. George S. Schuyler, the crudite columnist of the Pittsburgh Courier, sounded the correct note when he advocated genuine co-operatives before the Fact Finding Conference at Durham, N.C., the other day. However, I am inclined to think that George was wasting time talking "co-operatives" to men who had made more or less a success out of competitive business. The Negro business man like his white colleague does not look with favor upon any genuine plan of co-operative action where the profits that accrue will go to the co-operators instead of in private pockets. Consumers co-operatives, especially are looked upon by business men, white or black, in the same manner as the devil is alleged to eye body water. Before a group of Negro workers Schuyler's speech would have been seeds falling upon a fertile field. Sap Paulo has formed a new orchestra called "Seidcidade Symphonica de Sao Paulo." The director is Lambert Baldi. Fight Frivolity, Be Fearless To Enter the Thickest Battle The Negro Must Conquer Himself Before He Can Conquer His Enslavers The Negro must learn to conquer himself before he attempts to conquer his enslavers. And the things he has to conquer first lie hidden within himself. Fright frivolity—fight extravagance. Become serious-minded and know the power of words and the power of things. Thus you will come into the possession of self-realization. The Negro that realizes his power and worth will know how to command self-respect, and exact his dues even from the unwilling hands. Such men will make the best soldiers of freedom to fight for Africa. Self-respect; that source of the love of liberty, springs from the absence of a sense of dependence upon the man that seeks to oppress you. In modern times the economic dependence of one class upon another, of one national upon another, has been undermining the passion for freedom.

If every Negro leader were to teach and preach to the youth how to save and save systematically and regularly so that a few years hence as immense reservoirs of surplus will be created, it will mean the economic emancipation of the race not only in the United States but all over the world. If the Negro youth makes a sustained effort, to be thrifty for one decade, the race can become a leader in industry, business and professions. Politics will then be an open field for the Negro. Strive for economic independence through systematic thrift, and constant industry. Economic security will ensure self-respect and create a zest for higher life. Such men carry unfalteringly the banner of freedom; for they know how to sacrifice for themselves, and therefore they know how to sacrifice for their country, for their race. May the time come soon when the readers of The Negro World and the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will be able to celebrate their Christmas on the soil of a Free and United Africa; and spread the tidings of Peace throughout the length and breadth of the Great African Continent.

At the same time the prices of, foodstuffs and the daily necessities of life are at a price above the earnings of the average laborer. What is he to do? We hear hearful stories of the wealth of Honduras and Costa Rica, of the happy condition of their population and the general wealth per capital, of their people. We know that this is superficial. It presents a fine looking appearance from the economic structure and you will find that there are certain weaknesses there that we do not have in Nicaragua. Our native land is yet to be developed; this should be an incentive to our leader. We can at least legislate to a greater extent with more freedom than most of our other sister states. We do not want to see the policies of Nicaragua completely shaped by foreign capitalists, as in this respect we would lose our economic strength. We are instead that foreign capital must go half way with our governments and people. What can be done to alleviate this economic strain through which we are passing? We have always upheld up to our people the splendid opportunities offered in the field of agriculture. Here we need the fit- course of this coast. Most natives possess hands on the river. Why not begin to cultivate? It would be the course in the diffusion of agriculture to labor under its wills of diversification. But danger, learning it no doubt, it can be possible amount. It would be in denomination under people by bringing them together in agricultural habitats to know what they have done to improve their lands and property. Appears from circumstances in a means of learning the quantity of moisture in water that we suspect the following that the work on the "Pygmium" Roman script be started by both men. This would certainly give the apposite to the course an opportunity to cultivate in some phase of work of natural origin. We hope that this algorithm will be useful to be made. Every single of the present blooms there no need for more persecution on the nation. The hope of our country and people is that in the soil under our very feet. There is no need for our people to be in the condition that they are today. They have rejected Colter Burke for other purposes that have not brought them such difficult ties. We will not allow difficulties lies in the development of agriculture. Intensive farming will solve Nicaragua's internal difficulties. Be in mind that a NATION OF FARMERS IS ALWAYS INDEPENDENT. Moro Outlaws Fight Bravely (Continued from Page One) Arms would have, to be amused to them. The present trouble started about two weeks ago when a constabulary detachment charged several Moro cattle thieves and other outlaws into the old fort, where other Moros gave them shelter. The Moro country is dotted by old forts, which go back to Spanish days. Peace negotiations between the Constabulary and the rebellious Moros abducted the Moros and subdued the force left Camp Keithy, Dangalan, the provincial capital, in a dozen motor cars early today. A short distance from Dangalan it was suppressed the Moros were expecting an attack and destroyed two bridges to impede the advance of the soldiers. The constabulary immediately began repairing the damage. It was reported the Moros believed the fort impregnable and that they had been guarded by the relative number of enemies in the constabulary. When the Moros burrow under ground and the constabulary burst into the city, the constabulary dismounted the constabulary of its enemies. Odessa gave her new know well, 1911 to our spell.

He said that they were all already cognizant of the result of the Deputation's interview with the Governor, but he was not blaming the blame on the blaming officers of the Chief Executive; the privileged ones who had always had about the condition of the Negroes in Jamaica, generally, and the laboring-clads particularly. Committee of 14 He wished to explain that they would be forming a Committee of fourteen, consisting of a Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary, Treasurer and ten other members who would form the mouthpiece and executive body of the people. It would not be a Union, but would give the way for Labor Unions and such like. "Mr. Garvey then invited the views and experiences of those of the audience who wished to do so, in respect to the Labor situation, after which he suggested that the prospective executive body should be named, "The Jamaica Workers' Union Laborers' Committee" instead of "Committee," was proposed by Mr. J. White, representing the Jamaica Trades and Labor Union, and was unanimously adopted. Followed the selection of officers and members, who were appointed on follows: Helen, Marcus Gervay, Chairman; Mr. T. A. Altman, Vice Chairman; Mr. S. M. Delano, Secretary; Mr. A. W. Knightman, Treasurer. Mem- 员: Smith J. Smith, R. H. Daly, Steven McKinnon, G. Grant, O. Perfett. The Commission then surveyed the voting for the Committee, the only committee in which information would be considered carried out. The five members of the Committee would be chosen upon deputy, deputy of which one would be appointed to his Majesty the King, the Secretary of State, and the members of Parliament to appoint in Royal Commission to make a thorough investigation of the condition of the working place in the island. 1. Do the first place, for no many petitions and newspaper to be sent, that would require not a little amount of money, and he would appeal to the workers present, to manifest their interest and support, by contributing what they could to the fund. A collection of £5, in 1915, was taken, within which the meeting closed with the singing of the National Anthem. (Continued from Page 10) defence, the Hon. Monar Garvey. He argued that Mr. Garvey was deported from the United States and that he is not "labeled" by the authorities in Canada, while Mr. Knox was a man of great international standing. This argument was cut short by the counsel for the Negro World. Declaration of the Universal Negro improvement Association or its great leader was uncalled for, the counsel said. The present trial is concerned with the defendant's attempt to destroy the property of the Negro World, with his assault on one of the officers of the paper and with his unlawful possession of the gun. Adjourned to June 4 The trial was finally adjourned to Wednesday, June 4th. The case will be called around 9:30 a.m. The trouble of Mr. Knox started when he refused to obey the orders of the President-General who commanded the business manager of the Negro World, Mr. Harold G. Salus, not "to take orders from Knox." Mr. Knox tried various means, including the present unlawful entry into the premises over which he had no control, salacious assault and riffing of records, in order to get control of The Negro World in defiance of the orders of his chief, Ham. Harron Garvey. From all reports the legal follow- ers of Marvin Garvey in New York City The New World with commendable work were the man who is commending the man who will not seek down from the measure of his care or need. I have given down on my heart to a white man as the South Bishop. Right now for the life that God has given to you to live as you are it." *Reading further for help for members of the race who might migrate here the senior bishop declared:* "I have never beasted of having much religion; in fact I have much but what little I have, it is enough to prevent me from sending away any one hungry or in need of clothes or help while I have plenty. Get that kind of religion, so you will help less fortunate members of your people." "It haunts me," declared Bishop Jones, "to have plenty to eat and know that some one is hungry." *Big Words Culture* "Some people join the church for social reasons," the bishop said. "Don't be of that kind. Christianity means to help and I want you to be that kind of a Christian." He was harsh in his criticism of men and women who attempt to display an air of culture by using big words. "Never use them," he said. "Real cultural people avoid them as much as possible, instead of using them. You should have big ideas, depend upon your ideas to display any culture you might have. The bishop dwell at length on three different fundamentals of Christianity found today: "What is mine, mine, what is yours, but the real Christian will say, What is mine is yours, I will divide, and what is yours is yours, to do as you please. "What is mine is mine, is not the philosophy I believe in," the bishop declared. Snobbery of Society Speaking of social life, he said: "I do not care a snap of my finger for it. I am invited to more dinners than I can attend, but that is the snobbery of society to give to those who are able to provide for themselves. "Many so-called Christians are found occupying the amen seats in our churches today who are society anrohs. You must avoid them and try to help the less fortunate meme-beres. We can help them, we can never hope to succeed in life and make the demands that other raws make." Break, Party, Ties In an interview after the sermon in which a reporter asked his views on prohibition, the bishop said that he was in favor of the present law, because our group are the worst sufferers. To another question by another reporter on his views of whom the race should support in politics, he declare that party ties should be broken. "Were for and support the man who will act kindly to the race, men who will display a Christian attitude toward you and your people," he con- (Remanded from Page One) Holmes and Henry: Henry: "Young honor, my attorney is a very good man and I have been informed that he has filed a petition with the court today in continuance of his request." Judge Hilton: "Who is your attorney?" Henry: "Bob Green of Monad Brown." Judge McLean: "Are you a white man?" --- Judge Holmes: "Did you not know that Ben Green was a Negro when you employed him to defend you?" Henry: "Because I never told that he was an attorney of good standing before the court and could properly present any case in this court." Judge Holmes: "I will give you until tomorrow morning to employ a white lawyer to defend you." Holmes: "Your honor, I have paid Attorney Green to defend me, and I have no more money to employ another lawyer." It is further charged that Lester Faint, the U. S. District Attorney, then carelessly paid to the defendant: "Did you hire a nigger lawyer to defend you?" to which question Henry replied in the affirmative. The other clients of Mr. Green after hearing and seeing the hostile attitude of the officers in the court, are reported to have left, jumped their bain and have moved been located since. Cal McAllister, white, also had called Green to represent him but later secured the services of a white lawyer. It is alleged that when his case was called Fant said: "Your Honor, this is another one of those Mound Bayou niger lawyer cases." Senators Harrison and Stephens of Mississippi are reported to be urging the promotion of Hokies, who live at Yanco City, Miss. Trujillo Elected President In Sanito Domingo SANTO DOMINGO—In what is regarded as a young men's triumph, General Rafael Locosano Trujillo and General Rafael Estrella Broua, government candidates, were elected president and vice president, respectively, of the Dominican regiment, Pride. LONDON. May 24, 1895, peace is in India in the hands of the Indian minister in the ministry of Religious Affairs, India, poet and mystic, who is now in England. Mr. Tagore, who has many friends here and who has been influenced by the King, has been in lieu of the spirit of the British administration of India. He is sympathetic to Mahatma Gandhi's campaign and believes the spiritual triumph of the Nationalists is certain. "India is being ruled by a complicated machine," the aged poet said in speaking today at the yearly meeting of the Society of Friends. "The mechanics who drive it have had long training in power, which is superfluous in a workshop.
