spite of rumors that he would not be

Marcus Garvey. the originator and
leader of the Garvey movement, en-
tered the port of New York Wednes-

Rumors Hinted Exclusion
1t has been freely rumored since
Garvey left the United States that the
American government, frowning upon
his plans for unihcation of the Black
races of the earth, would attempt to ex-
clude him.
1t was even reported that the Brit
ish government would be asked not
to give him passport to leave the
West Indies, where he has been lately
engaged in spreading the doctrines of
the Garvey movement.
Another 30-day Convention
Garvey is now busy making plans
for his second annual thirty-day con-

.mething new manifested itself at
Harvard on Tuesday, July 5th, at the
Summer School. Monday Miss Eu-
nice Hudson of Admission, Ala. and
Miss Galfrey Young, daughter OF Pres.
Young of Tallahassee. Fla, were given
their rooms the night before in Gore
Hall but after breakfast on Tuesday
found a note in their room directing
them to see Director Murray. who
requested them to find rooms outside
with coiorcd families as "it might
be unpleasant to room with the white
girls" They had a double suite in
the Freshman Dormitory. They found
the house OF Mrs. Z. T. Morris, wife
of the president OF the Boston Branch
OF the National Equal Rights League.
Mrs. Morris told the girls to keep
their rooms and she telephoned to
Secretary Trotter.
When he arrived he found Miss
Roberts of Jacksonville, Fla, who had
part OF a double suite and had been
sent to Mr. Murray and not even per
mitted to enter her room. Mr.. Trotter
escorted her to Gore Hall, with Miss
Bessie Miller. and when the hostess
gave a false excuse and said She was
powerless. all went over to Mr.. Muir
ray. Here ensued an argument OF a
full half hour between Director Muir
ray. who was avoiding unpleasant
ness for the colorcd girls as some
Southern women were students" and
Secretary Trotter, who insisted race
discrimination was not the policy or
spirit of Harvard University, and
that the girls have their rooms and
rights.
Finally Trotter prevailed, Miss Rob
erts was escorted to single suite in
Standish Hall by Secretary Trotter
and secured her room. The other girls
were advised to stand pat and nothing
more was heard OF the color line.
This was an important victory.

her name or account for her scream
ing.
As the woman made no complaint
to the policeman, authorities arc
