SAYS BRAZIL INVITES NEGROES.
DOES NOT HINDER THEIR EN-
TRANCE.
(BY A. n. P.l

(By A. N. P.)
Rio Janiero, Brazil, June 16.-The
government is about to issue a Pro-
nunciamento which will declare that
the reports that are being given out
in various parts of the United States
TO the effect that there is color pre-
JUDGE in Brazil are without founda-
ton and can not be verified by any
one who will put themselves to the
trouble to verify them. Quite to the
contrary, the pronouncement will point
out, the government stands ready and
most willing to give encouragement
to all colonists without regard to
race or color.
At the office of the Secretary of
State it was announced recently that
extra Inducements were about to be
offered to Negro Colonists from the
United States to settle in the state
of Matte Crosse. AS has been stated
in former cablegrams this is to be
done because of the unusually favor
able conditions to be found in that
part of the Republic for Negro colo
nists from the southern portion OF the
great American Republic.
Cotton is to be added to the stable
products of the Republic by our ma
tional government. A number OF eX,
periments have met with pronounced
success in this connection IN the
State of Matte Crosse. The sweet pc,
tatS. coin of a very fine quality and
garden truck of various kinds nave
been successfully raised recently IN
this section with highly profitable
results. Chickens and other poultry
thrive and in the southwestern Por-
ton cactle are being raised to llne
advantage, A prominent official SAID
recently, "Au this talk about color
prejudice in Brazil is the veriest non
Sense Color or race is no bar in
Brazil and never will he we want
men stout of heart and willing to
work. That is all we are asking
of COlonists.

DETROIT CHURCHMAN DRAWS
FIRE OF CARNEY LIEUTENANT
FOR CRITICISM OF L. n. |. A..
IDEAL.

New York, n. Y, June 16.-Answer-
ing Bishop c. S. Smiths challenge
to the Marcus Garyey propaganda,
Offering a $500 bond for concrete
proof of certain alleged activities OF
The Universal Negro Improvement
Association, DR.. j. d. Gordon, Gar
vey's rfght-hand man, delivered a
pointed address at Liberty Hall
Thursday evening, in which he stated:
This weeks issue of The Negro
World contains the answer to that
gentleman who said he would give
$500 for proof that pioneers of our
movement were sent to Africa
The Negro World dated May 2S,
answered editorially as follows:
Bishop C. S. Smith. of Detroit.
Mich, has sent out a challenge in
several Colored newspapers, question
ing the statement of DR.. Rollin Lynde
HART in the New York Independent
for February &c, 1921, that piOpers
sailed from New York for Africa
If Bishop Smith will read the pres
ent issue of The Negro World he will
discover that the pioneers-one an
agriculturist, another a surveyor,
another a mechanic, another drug
gfst, etc.-have already reached Ii
IBERIA, and some of them have adj
dressed a public meeting there.
Some of the pioneers sailed from
New York in February and they are
now in Liberia. While they did not
sail on the Black Star liner they did
evidently sail on some ship. We saw
them in New York in February and
now we receive letters from some
of them in Africa. We do not
believe that they walked across the
ocean. We do not believe that they
went from New York to Monrovia by
airplane or on a magic carpet, as
Aladdin did. Therefore they must
have sailed by boat.
If Bishop Smith, who knows more
about the Bible and celestial affairs
than he does about the world in
which we live and terrestrial affairs,
can tell us how the Atlantic Ocean
can be crossed except by boarding
some ship. we would be very CRATE
full Did the good bishop expect the
angel Gabriel and Micheal to come
down from heaven and carry black
men to Africa in a chariot which
rides on the wings of the wind?
We suggest in the future that Bish-
op Smith consult some of the officials
of the U. N. I. A. before he sends
out wild and rambling statements,
in the desire to get some newspaper
notoriety at the expense of Marcus
Garvey
Bishop Smiths challenge is as fol-
lows:
"The initial statement in the article
of Mr. Rollin Lynde HART, under the
caption of "The Negro Moses" pub
hshed in. the Independent New
York;. February 26, 1921, is base
fabrication and wholly misleading,
The statement to which I refer fol-
lows:
Fifteen pioneers of African indie
pendence-Negro surveyors, Negro
architects, Negro builders. Negro
chemists, Negro physicians-sailed re-
Gently from New York aboard Black
Star Liners owned and operated by
Negroes"
The truth of this statement I chal-
lenge in concrete manner, namely.
I will donate a five hundred dollar
8 per cent bond of the Pennsylvania
and Ohio Power and Light COMPANY
dated November l, 1920, and due Nov,
l, 1880, with all coupons attached,
to the Nurse Training Department
of the Lincoln Hospital, New York
