From the Paper:

"But the initial enthusiasm did not last and slowly the UNIA bean to lose the initial popularity. The shipping line also soon ran into financial difficulties. Further commercial organizations were started called the African Communities League and Negro Factories Corporation. The schemes of colonization of Africa by he Negroes from America were sought to be bolstered by the appeal to the League of Nations to hand over the colonies in Africa that were seized from the Germans during World War I. His assistants also betrayed him, and there were a number of cases launched against him on the ground that he had used the American mail service to collect money from the people for the schemes.
