KINGSTON, Jamaica Thirty
five delegates, ten from the Unit

international convention of the
Universal Negro Improvement As
socistion, recently held for one
month at Edelyeiss Park.
The American delegation was
the smallest in years, owing to the
high cost of travel. It represented
ten states; forty-five branches in
twelve states we're represented by
proxy. There were twenty-five
delegates from the West Indies
and Central America.
Marcus Carney, founder and pre-
sident-general, announced during
the session that the international
headquarters of the association
would be moved to London this
fall, when he contemplates run

Improvement in the economic sta
tus of southern tenant farmers,
better conditions than

On the whole the Negro has
displayed marked ability to look
out for himself during the dep
ression. He has accepted the sit
uation unquestioningIy. He has
presented no new social problem.
He has been a good citizen thru
out. And he deserves something
better much better-in the hap

EXCEED NEGRO
RACE|NHAR[EN

NEW YORK = Contrary to the
common impression that Harlem
is composed principally of colored
people, there are more Jews and
Italians in that section than color
ed persons of all nationalities.
In addition, there are large num-
bers of Russians, most of whom
are refugees who lost their prop
erty during the first Russian rev.
olution, and Irishmen, descendants
of early settlers in the section, who
live, in many cases, in the same
tenements as did their ancestors.
10000 Italians, More Jews
On the east side of Harlem, in
uptown Little italy, it is conserv-
atively estimated that there are
more than 10000 Italians. Span
ish, Russian, French and Polish
Jews, living principally in Madi-
son and Fifth Avenues, probably
outnumber the Italians, while the
total colored population of Harlem
is between 225, 900 and 100000.
The ancient village of Manhat-
tanville, surrounding the far west
ern section of 125th Street, where
George Washington rallied his
troops and drove the invading Bri-
fish from the wheat fields, is now
the center of large portion of the
Irish settlement.
Newcomers in Frequent Clashes
Before the World War there was
a great influx of West Indians to
Harlem, many of whom are en-
gagged in business and professional
activities.
Newcomers in Harlem are prin-
cipally Puerto Ricans, both white
and colored; and Filipinos. They
are arriving in ever-increasing
numbers and have been involved
in numerous clashes with other
elements of the population.

Outlining the method for color
ed people to secure a larger share
of their civic and political rights,
he advises: Every conference in
the South where whites and Elacks
meet an6 eat together, every boy
colt of a hotel or meeting place
discriminating against attendance
of colored delegates to conferences,
every white person who attempts
to get service in public eating pla-
ces for himself and a colored per-
son, every colored person who in
sists on equal accommodations in
interstate transportation, - even
lower 13'-all these challenges to
established discrimination do more
to help break it down than APP
peals to Legislature and courts. Co
lored lawyers defending a white
man, as one recently did in Balti-
more; colored lawyers handling
cases in appeals courts in the deep
South, as has just happened in the
state Of Georgia; these are ways
to express the determinations to
break the barriers.
Every colored and white person
who choose to marry: and every
colored family which chooses to
live in a neighborhood where the
whites predominant, helps set at
naught the restrictions placed on
the race"

Our Opportunity


POLITICS during these days Of
depression nay not be reduced to
4 6: fanny, as IN days gone by
when a group Of ward leaders
could determine months IN advance
what candidates would Be elected.
This uncertainty can be used by
c0lored citizens 80 secure more
equitable treatment from State
and City governments.
It offers the finest opportunity
Negroes have had for q half CEN
fury.
But opportunity means nothing
unless it is intelligentIy grasped.
The main thing, therefore. is
what win colored citizens do to get
their rights during the present
campaign?
VIII those who are Negro lead
ers think of and act for the adj
vancement Of their race. or will
they quietly accept the same treat
ment accorded ia former years?
The Negro masses are determin-
ed to get somewhere and a hand
kerchicf- headed leadership IS now
doomed. The vast majority Of col
ored citizens are aroused and are
going to run loose unless the situ-
alton develops an intelligent lead
ership which will organize and dir
ect the colored voters In a manner
that win assure a square deal.
