But what about tho tens Of thous.

ment for the reason that Negro.hating
white people are using tho Garvey
declarations to justify the racial dis.
ordinations, which are antagonistic
to the fundamental principles of the
Republic itself. This produces a most
embarrassing situation. We had hoped
mat these classes would agree TO dis.
agree, that no deatlrfight SO to speak
would take place between them. AS
the matter now stands, Marcus Gar
Vcy is calling his followers to arms,
against the powerful movement which
is gaining momentum in this country
against his propaganda.
We are still Of the opinion that 4
basis of mutual understanding can be
reached, by which each side may pur.
sue its own course in peace The cili.
zen of color with American citizen
ship sealed with the blood Of his fell
lows knows no flag but the stars anu

is still suffering. Will he renouncc his
American citizenship and follow the
co!ors of the red, black and green?
This is the question and the 'revolu.
lion, which the Hon. Marcus Garvey
is fomenting may result in the consul
mmation of Il hope existing in the
breasts of some black leaders many
centuries ago.

4 SENATORIAL CANDIDATE.

The Republican State Convention.
which met at True Reformers nsnl
last Monday night saw fit to pace
Editor Matt N. Lewis, in the field as
candidate for United States Senate. He
did not hesitate to accept the honor
and promised to make a canvass Of
the State during the brief period inter
vening between now and the time Of
the election. He stands squarely upu.
the platform enunciated by the party
last year and pledges to observe the
fundamental principles Of the Republi-
can Party without regard to race, col
or or religious scruples.
We are Of the opinion that a wiser
choice could not have been made. Mr. Z.
Lewis Is an old campaigner and he
is in a position to render good &C.
count Of himself. Conditions are such
that the coIored people, who believe in
the fundamental principles Of the Re.
publican Party cannot vote unless
they have some one on the ticket for
whom they wish to vote. This phase OF
the subject is met in Mr.. Matt N.
Lewfs's candidacy. He edits the New.
port News Star and this will furnish
to him a support, which will be all
important in this contest e.. H.,
Let us give him our enthusiastic sup
port, with malice towards none and
charity for ALL" By so doing. we can
at least maintain our self.respect ami
serve notice to the Republicans Of tn,
country that the Old Guard stands
ready to do their duty and to meet the
Issues as they are presented to them
Matt N. Lewis is our candidate for
United States Senator. Let US rally as
one man and support him.

that Bowers could not give them the

GARVEY'S GALL no ARMS,

The Hon. Marcus Carney is using
some plain language these days in the
current issues Of the Negro World.
His latest deliverance under date Of
October 7th charges that rival enemy
organizations are marshalling their
forces against the mighty movement
of the Universal Negro Improvement
Association and will aid in the prose-
,cution in the United States Coul .
against him, which case will soon como
to trial. He asserts that we are bank
rupt in race leadership. We are Of the
opinion that the whole world Just now
is bankrupt in competent leadership.
Certain it is THAT the Congress of thu,
United States furnishes a most remark
able evidence that the United States
is bankrupt in white leadership.
The labor unions OF the country
nave demonstrated that they are lack
ing in leadership. Demagogues OF
every type are in evidence in high
places. We have been of the opinion
that Marcus Garvey and his movement
lave been generally misunderstood bv
:he upper class OF colUrcl peopie. He
Is not a citizen Of the United States.
He claims that this is white mans
government and that the Negro has
no part or parcel in this Government
lie Is correct in this for the Constitu.
ton of the United States does nor
recognize Negroes as a part of this
Government.
It recognizes American citizens ~
a part and parcel of the Government
ana when the citizen Of African des.
cent who was born here insists upon
his rights and privileges under tn,
aforesaid Constitution, he is within
his rights. Hon. Marcus Garvey IS az
advocate Of Negroism in its entirety.
re wants to build up an empire or a
republic IN Africa, with all the pope,
;1f the present Governments, which
now control the civilized world. He ia
preaching the gospel Of discomfort,
which gospel rallies to his banner
thousands Of dissatisfied black people,
throughout the civilized world. Mr..
Garvey realizes and knows that tn.
revolution must be started among Ne.

Secretary Hoover is Designat-

Receive Public Support.

Washington, Feb. 9.-Secretary
Hoover was understood today to have
submitted to President Harding a
report on the work of certain Rus
sian famine relief organizations and
their connection with the Russian
Soviet government.
The report is supposed to have been
result of an extensive investigation
by Mr.. Hoover into the operation of
a number of Russian relief societies
operating Independent of American
relief work and it's allied organiza-
tions.
It was said to detail names of GER
tain organizations which were not
regarded as being directly interested
in famine relief as in aiding Soviet
authorities.
President Harding is expected to
make public the report in order to
inform the country as to the relia-
bility of various organizations solicit
