The New Negro COlOni cation Scheme.

Bishop Turner, of the colored Meth.
edIsts, left for Liberia last week to
Visit Its mission fields and to hunt for
iacts to support his theory that the
African Republic is the proper and
destined home of the negroes of this
country. He expects to return bv the
nrst OF the year, bringing with him 81
variety of inducements and a BUDGET
Oh information which will convince
the American negroes that the only
nope for their future elevation lies in
this plan of African colonization.
SeVenty-fve years ago the same
seheme was conceived by white phi
lanthrophists of both the North and
south as means of relieving the
evils OF slavery, and in 1917 the Amer
lean Colonization society was organ
lied at Washington to carry it into

the movement were some of the most
prominent men of the day, and it

same as Bishop Turner's, that Africa
is the proper home of the negro race.
and that there, among people of their
own race and color, they can escape
the obstacles to their progress which
they encounter here in competition
with the whites. The first shipIoad of
colonists was sent over in 1920, and
the total number thus transported had I
reached about one thousand in 1928
Yet at the present time after sixty ,
years, there are, all told, only about
twenty thousand negroes in Liberia.
