China Press CENSORSHIP
Shows K0umintang Fear

| T. V. Soong, Minister of Finance,
and Yang HUI, former Garrison Com
mander. In reference to the last
mentioned the British-owned North
China Daily News" some time ago
printed series of articles in which
he was described at great length,
as the Tammany Hall gang leader
of Shanghai. He was said to owe
his power to secret societies COM
posed of the criminal elements, to
opium smugglers, etc, A proof
reader is said to have betrayed Tsai

Chang Wants More Suppression.
That the Marking Government has
no intention of permitting freedom
of discussion is more than ever evil
dent in the statement of Chang Kai-
shin in Picking July 10 demanding
the strict enforcement of censor
ship in northern China where his
ambitions have been severely crit
icized even by Kuomintang papers.
He declares that Newspapers may
criticize the National government
but shall not attack it." This is like
the statement of government prose-
cutors in radical trials in America
that "You may think what you like
so long as you don't tell anyone!"

How has the press Jared under
this suppression? In the whole
country there is not a Chinese daily
whose news can be relied on if of
political nature. The columns are
full of fake patent medicine ads
(mostly of foreign firms), charla-
tan's offers of every description,
factional, vituperations, rumors of
rumors. Editorials-if they could
be described as such--are absolutely
insipid, saying nothing in a round
about way or voicing vague gener-
alities. Attemps to found papers
which would speak for the masses
and be under their control are
prompt. suppressed, the latest in
stance being that of the Shanghai
"Pao." The millions of hard
oppressed workers and the tens of
millions of desperately impoverished
peasants have no. way to express
their needs.
The list of prohibited publications
is long. Among these are included
the Resolutions of the Fourth Con-
gress of the Third International.
The papers and books of the Chi
Red Aid and of the Communist
Party are circulated only at risk of
ones life. All publications except
those produced by or slavishly re-
fleeing the policies of the Kuomin-
tang officials are rigidly banned.
Even though not the slightest criti-
cism is allowed of the government
authorities further Tightening of
the ban is proposed. Periodical
searches must hereafter be conduct
ed of all shops selling books. Those
found handling literature deemed to
be "Red" are to be severely pun
ished. Under these circumstances
it is 10 wonder that Chinese are be-
ginning publicly to voice their pro-
test, come going so far as to de-
clare that there is less liberty under
the Kuca-::;ntang than there was I'M
der the militarist dictators who pre-
ceded it.

ago in connection with an alleged
conspiracy against the State power
were released today for want of any
evidence against them. Their release
is fair enough proof of the absolute
baselessness of the indictment and
of the arbitrary nature of the ar
rests. Ten officials of the Commu-
nists Party are still being detained
in the same connection, but their
detention is only an attempt to save
the face of the authorities.

ton.
Reminiscent it was in color, if not
in numbers. of the monster Garvey
pageants in New York. Participants
in the parade carried flags Of all ma
tions; there were uniformed bands,
uniformed ranks of Garvey legions,
engineer corps, Black Cross nurses
and boy scouts.
Leading the marchers, in naval
uniform, was the man Garvey, whom
Bishop Reverdy c. Ransom has
termed the "mightest prophet who
has appeared among US in fifty
years."
In the United States, the Garvey
organization was sued so often for
debt that no track can be kept of the
court procedures. Garvey has been
lpursued by his first wife, who claims
lhe was not properly divorced. Garvey
| HEADQUARTERS in New York has be-
come the site of an Elk hall. Garvey,
imprisoned five years for using the
United States mails to defraud, was
deported in disgrace.
He was reported as pennies and
a prisoner in Jamaica, but soon there
after. he toured England and France.
Returning to jamaica, he called
together his followers from the four
corners of the earth to dream with
him and plan fer political and SOCIAL
freedom for the Negro, establish
ment of a universal social code,
formation of chain of Negro daily
papers around the world, raising a
fnnd of S6OO,OOO,0OO in ten years,
opening of Negro defense headquar,-
ters in the large cities of the world,
organization of new steamship line,
formulation of plans for Negro re-
ligion and a Negro church, and the
appointment of a commission to the
League of Nations.
Garvey clapped his hands and
twelve thousand followers shook the
earth as they marched through the
streets of Kingston.
Yes, there is still magic in the
name of Garvey.
For our part, we disagreed with
many things that he said and did,
but we always believed that he had
the fundamental principles OF true
leadership within him and that his
cause could not die and that he could
not be side-tracked in his aims and
purposes by heinous persecution.
They made a martyr of Hon.
Eugene V. Debs, the Socialist, when
they incarcerated him in the Atlanta
Penitentiary and they canonized Hon.
| Marcus Garvey when they treated
him in the same way. He is regard
ed now as hero even by thousands
of those who opposed him and by
practically every follower, who has
espoused his cause.
1t is case of "history repeating
itself"

A WORD ABOUT CARNEY

The Baltimore, Nd, Afro-Amer-
lean, which during Marcus Garvey's
sojourn in the United States had
much to say in condemnation of this
great leader, under the caption of
"Garvey's Magic" has this to say in
its issue of the 18th ult:
A legendary hero of ancient times
stamped his foot and an armed host
sprang from the soil to do his bid
ding.
Marcus Garvey, provisional presi-
dent of Africa, commander-in-chief
of the Black Star Steamship Line,
and secretary-general of the Uni
versal Negro Improvement Associa-

thousand delegates from all parts of
the world followed him through the
streets of Kingston, Jamaica, British

THE WILL OF THE PRESIDENT

The Republican National Commit
tee met in Washington, D. c., last
Tuesday and as Il result unanimously
elected Hon. Claudius H. Huston as
chairman. Hon. Perry w. Howard,
of Mississippi, has shown no disposi-
ton to retire as a member OF the
committee even though he has been
denied his patronage rights. 1t IS
asserted that ilIfeeling exists be-
tween Hon. Robert r. Church and
the distinguished statesman, who has
been elevated to the chief political
office within the gift of the Repub-
,ican Party.
1t is also announced that Mr..
Huston is welded to the "lily-white"
idea. the cornerstone of which is the
non-recognition of the citizen of col
or, regardless of his political prestige,
Responsibility, wealth or religion.
So far as we are able to view the
matter, the only course to pursue IS
to 'wait until our time comes, for
Come it will, the day decreed by
fate"
We have lived long enough to see
political parties rise and fall. We
know that coalitions of the kind now
being formed and propagated cannot
last. The situation in Georgia is
anomalous. Our position is that
there should be no yielding in the
matter. Let the chairman and the
administration at Washington take
what they will by force, but not by
supine submission.
Whatever President Herbert Hoo
yer and his political associates will,
becomes a command and virtually
the law of the Republican Party as
at present constituted. They are
looking for the discontinue of the
Democratic Party, but it will not be
many months before the present
chaotic condition in the Republican
Senate will be duplicated by similar
conditions in the Republican Party
itself. Selah.

REV. BOONE'S BOOK

We have received from the author
an autographed copy of Liberia As
I Know It." Rev. C. C. Boone, NJ.
D.. has dedicated this book to his
wife. Mrs. Rachel Boone, nee Tharps.
She served as missionary with him
for five years in Africa. The intro
duction was written by Rev. Dr.. R.
R. Motion, the very able principal OF
Tuskegee Institute.
We are frank to say that we have

teal, interesting valuable Informal

ton concerning a country as this
book contains within compressed
space of 1872 pages. The book is
cloth bound, printed on good paper
and is pleasing to look upon and also
most interesting to read. The
frontispiece contains a picture of the
house in this section, 35 miles from
this city, where the famed Lott Carey
was born. The Rev. DR.. Evans
Payne and two friends may be seen
seated there.
1t is of particular interest since he
writes vivid description of the
grave in Africa, where Lott Carey
is buried. Here is what Rev. c. C.
Boone says:
One day l was talking with Rev.
w. H. Johnson, of Liberia, and he
said to me: "You know that Lott
Carey was buried up yonder in the
cemetery" | said: mo; it is not
possible. | begged him to come and
go up there and find it. When it
grew cooler, we did go and walked
all over the place. The cemetery was
then grown over with tall grass We
could not find it. The second time
we looked for it, but could not find
it. The third time we looked for it,
but could not find it.
He was the only man who had the
least knowledge as to the location Of
the grave. Finally, he said to me
'Let US wait until the grass is burned
off and then we can see better and
can find the grave" So we just had
to wait until the grass was burned
After the grass fire, Rev. Johnson
came to Monrovia again, and l said
to him: Come, let US find that
grave" He consented to help me
look for it. We went out there and
soon he called me and | ran where
he was.
He said: Boone, here is the foot
stone; the maidstone has fallen
down, but | am sure this is the foot

scratched in the sand and found the
tombstone buried in the sand.

CITIZENS FOR CHEST
Lewis Gutenberg Discusses Charity
Fund at Meeting Of
Association.

Addressing the Mount Pleasant Citi-
zenS Association in the Branch
Library at Sixteenth and Lamont
streets last night, Lewis Gutenberg dis
cussed the Community Chest and its
program and was advised by the asso-
citation that the Chest unanimously was
Endorsed by it and would receive its
support.
A report submitted by the committee
on public safety and health urging
construction Of an enclosed sewer from
Sixteenth Street Bridge TO one mile
below the Twentieth Street Bridge in
Rock Creek Park was not approved
The majority Of the members present
believed that eventually some provision
would be made for sewers paralleling
Rock Greek that would adequately dis
pose of refuse and that construction
of the present project would be a waste
Of time and labor.
Miss Kate p. johnson, another
speaker, warned that residents of La
mont street who were assessed by the
District Government in 1913 to pro-
vide funds to open the street west of
Nineteenth must file suit before Janu-
airy % if they wish to recover the
amount which they gave. She declared
that the street never had been opened
and that no provision had been made
for the return of the funds to contribu-
tors. The statute of limitations having
run, there will be no opportunity to
recover after this month, she said
