the greatest movement for racial re-
adjustment and co-opSratiUl took on
practical basis. While these pro-

there were working at the same time
a number Of retrOgressive tendencies
which found expression in an increase
in many quarters of prejudice and
determinations. 1t was during this
time that four of the worst riots in
history OF the country occurred.
The happenings Of the period 1919

caused many to ask whether the con-
ditions affecting them we're growing
better or worse. Among the reasons
for this question were: race preju-

the number Of lynchings reported for

for 1918, 1919. 1920. and 1921, were

One of the most significant and i'm

Another lire in which we have made

years has been notable for the erect

the formal church services. This would
appear to be a new and distinct adj

A Significant Indication Of the pro-

lines Is, that: Negro ministers have de-

education to have high honors confer

SAYS BLACK STAR LINE A
BANKRUPT CONCERN.

New York, Nov 2.-(Crusader Ser
vice. Quite furore has been created
in this city by the publication Of the
records Of a supplementary examina-
tion Of Marcus Garvey, president of
the BLACK Star Line" held in the
Supreme Court of the Bronx, August
10. when Mr.. Garvey. under oath, was
forced to admit that the BLACK Star
Line was a line without ships and
that 1t at present possessed only an
interest in two boats. one of which,
the Kanawha.' Is abandoned In the
port Of Antilla, Cuba. as a wreck
and the other. the "shadyside.'' also
a wreck. somewhere in New York
Harbor.' In both these vessels. the Gar
vey concern has only an interest and
in both cases that interest Is NOR
tagged. Both vessels are useless
wrecks. according to Garvey's own ad-
mission.
Asked should this matter be settled,
how much money would the Black
Star Line receive Individually Carney
replied "the Black Star Line would
not receive anything. because its In
tterest is mortgaged to others to cover
liabilities"
Questioned as to whether the Black
Star Line had any accounts outstand-
ing. Garvey replied. mo, 1t has no
outstanding accounts" Carney was then
asked IL anybody owed money to the
Black Star Line and replied in the
negative. He also replied in the mega
tive to the question whether the
Black Star Line was doing any BUSH
ness at the present time
Carney told the court that about
100000" had been collected on sale
of stock and that the Black Star Line
has never paid any dividends, and that
what property 1t has in its name Is
all mortgaged. said property being
that at Sc West ls5th Street. The
present indebtedness OF the line was
approximately 100000 he said, and
three were no assets. Questioned as to
whether there were any other judg-
'ments outstanding against the Black
star Line, and to name them, Garvey
cannot name them. There are judi
ments from the crew. aggregatine

In the meantime, the Federal case
against Carney, growing out of the
exposure by the Crusader Magazine
that his company had been advertising
and selling passage on a ghost stea-

subsequent charges by Federal agents
that he used the mails to misrepre-
