NEWS IN BRIEF Denounce Canadian mission C A N A D A ' S D E C I S I O N to send a trade mission to South Africa has been denounced by E d Clarke, Chairman of the National Black Coalition of Canada. "This is a slap in the face for a l l Black people, not only in Ontario but in a l l Canada, when a government could send an eight-man representative team to that country which is oppressing a large majority of Blacks Canada's open declaration, in view of present debates going on in the U .

China accuses superpowers mfGMBORHOOPS

A F T E R TWO Y E A R S in ' the United Nations. China is beginning to have doubts about the ability of the international body to adequately work out solutions to world problems. Centering their claims on the fact that the Soviet Union and the United States had supplied weapons to the Arabs and Israelis in the recent conflict, China accused the two super powers of possible collusion by contending that Soviet aid was intended by ' n o means to give true support to them (the Arabs) in resisting Israeli provocations, but to control the development of the Middle E a s t situation so that it w i l l not go beyond the limits it has agreed with the other superpower."

THE DIRECT U.S. involvement and the ready-forimmediate-use heavy equipment — and not the Israeli military strategy and planning — was responsible for the Israeli thrust made into the West bank of the Suez Canal. The Arabs have answered the U.S. threat and challenge. Surprisingly, the tiny state of Abu Dhabi which does not have the means to defend itself was the first to order complete embargo against oil shipments to the United States. Nine more states followed suit. The disruptive impact of this action on the U . S . E a s t Coast will soon be felt. Onethird of its oil supply is now in great jeopardy. The American people will soon feel the pinch and may wake up and ask why.

'Israel is a foreign

element'

Veteran Arab ambassador's warnings to EN. ignored By Joe Walker (M.S. New York Bureau) UNITED NATIONS — Time and again Saudi Arabia's Ambassador to the U.N., Jamil M. Baroody, has taken center stage at the Security Council sessions on the 1973 Middle East War to warn that there will be no peace as long as Israel is a foreign element in the social and political body of the Arab world, and as long as there are Palestinians to whom the right of self - determination is denied. His remarks have been widely ignored by the U . S . mass media, although his nation is the world's largest oil supplier, and recently cut off a l l oil shipments to the U.S. B A R O O D Y H A S been a representative of his country at the U . N . since the inception of the world body in 1945. I n recent Security Council meetings he has repeatedly stated that the present events in the Mideast were only the latest link in a long chain and gave his version of the history of earlier events. Here are edited excerpts of what the outspoken Saudi Arabia U . N . Ambassador has been saying: — "We have an Arabic proverb which says: 'He who starts the e v i l b e a r s the greatest responsibility.' But now suffice it to say that the present situtaion is only the latest link in a long chain of events; and here I would like to address myself to everyone of you members of the Council

and, if the mass media of information allow m y voice to c a r r y beyond this chamber, to the people of the United States — because I am not talking only to you; you receive instructions from your governments, and many of you are in the strait -jackets of i n s t r u c t i o n s ; and as i f sometimes the strait-jackets of i n s t r u c t i o n s w e r e not enough, many of you put on the tight pants of procedure and we engage in a lot of talk

without any action. "How do I know this? I participated umpteen' times in the Assembly and in this Council, where resolutions were passed which Israel did not heed. When it suited it, or rather its representatives, they wantonly said: The Arab States can always muster votes.' " BAROODY R E C A L L E D how the Zionists has mustered votes in 1947 at Lake Success to secure approval for partition of Palestine. They had even obtained a cardinal to go to Latin America to rally votes and he p a r a p h r a s e d U . S . President H a r r y T r u m a n as saying, " T e l l me how many Arabs do I have in my constituency? The Zionists are more important to m e . " " I t was a question of votes — it was a matter of democracy by subscription and contribution. He who pays the piper calls the tune. " —The Zionist movement is not native to the Middle E a s t . It is a political movement started I n Central and E a s t e r n Europe by people descended mostly from the Khazars, who came originally from the northern tier of Asia on the outskirts of the Caspian Sea, and who settled, in the first century in what today is southern Russia. "There was a confrontation in the eighth century between C h r i s t i a n i t y and Islam, B y z a n t i u m — I s l a m had

" T h i s t i m e they are m o r e advanced

spread in the area. There was a gentlemen's agreement that those tribes which came from the northern tier of Syria and settled in w h a t i s today southern Russia would not be converted either to Christianity or Islam. There were certain rabbis around and it w a s agreeable to the C h r i s t i a n and the Muslim states of those days to have those pagan tribes converted to Judaism. " I t was in eastern and central Europe that the idea of a state for the ingathering of the J e w s from a l l over the world grew and flourished. One of the things that helped it at that time was the Dreyfus affair in France, whence Herzl completed his Zionist manifesto and put the last touches in the Rue Cambon behind the Ritz. in a small hotel... "There is nothing wrong with a dream—but J e w s and Gentiles are being sacrificed (now) because that dream has turned into a nightmare." Baroody recalled that in the 19th Century and early in the 20th Century, the Zionists had tried to u s e various governments to achieve their ends. Their price for aid to the British in World War I had been the Balfour Declaration (in which the U . , K . government pledged its support for the "establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people"). Jews in Palestine at the time consisted of only six per cent of the population. H E S T A T E D that the U . S . had been "railroaded" into World War I and, leaving aside P e a r l Harbor, into World War I I , by the Zionists. "One has only to read Fortune and Business Week and other statistics to see that the J e w s (in the U . S . are among the most prosperous, if not the most, in relation to their numbers." he said.

Palestine Liberation Organization appraises Middle East struggle By Chester Sheard CHICAGO — E v e r since the turn of the century, the Arabs and J e w s have been unable to come together to iron out the difficulties over the land issue in the Middle E a s t . T H R O U G H O U T the many years in which w a r s erupted and m a n y t h o u s a n d s of innocent people have lost their lives the Israelis were always provided for by the Western powers, openly and without hesitation. The Arab people, long victims of economic colonialization by

techinically and m i l i t a r i l y advantaged capitalists, have always been the one's to suffer. The Palestine L i b e r a t i o n Organization formed in the middle '60's was entrusted with the task of mobilizing the people of Palestine to plan their own strategy for the liberation of their homeland. During the National Anti I m p e r i a l i s t Conference in Solidarity with Africa held in Chicago recently. Mr. Ibrahim E b e i d of the Palestine Liberation Organization attended and was kind enough

to grant us an interview. M.S. — Fighting has broken out again in the Middle East. The Jews say it was initiated by the Arabs. How do you feel about that? E B E I D — I think the war started in 1917 between the Arabs and Zionists on one side and imperialism on the other side and since then the battles have been on and off. This is not going to be the last one. They (the J e w s ) accuse the Arabs of starting the war, but the war was imposed on the Arabs. Israel was created in

Palestine, despite the w i l l 6f the Palestinian people. If we can go back a little in history, to the time of Herzl, the father of modern Zionism, we see that he was looking for a home for the J e w s to get together. He was not much interested in Palestine. To give you an example — Uganda, in Africa was offered to them by the western i m p e r i a l i s t s , by.

After the 71-day-siege of Wounded Knee, Bissonette emerged as one of the most important witnesses among the militant Indians, and most U.S. marshals on the scene knew that Bissonette's testimony would do more damage to the government's case than any other witness. Thus, a barrage of charges were leveled against the 29year-old Brave in an attempt to railroad him. After making the f a l s e c h a r g e s , the

By Nathaniel 10X PINE RIDGE, S.D. — Pedro Bissonette's body lay in the small tee-pee in the front yard of his mother's home near Cheyene Creek. Dressed in his colorful ribbon powwow shirt and full-beaded moccasins, Bissonette now received the honor of a fighting Indian warrior who dies fighting for the cause of his people. The colorful pow-wow shirt concealed the seven gaping holes that his murderers pumped in his chest with shotgun fire. MURDERED BY hired government Indians and a paid terrorist squad," Bissonette was killed by a shotgun loaded with slugs the size of .38 caliber slugs. Indian leaders declared. There were also three other bruises on his chest the size of half dollars, that Indian leaders say could have been caused by tear gas pellets. His bullet-riddled body was snatched .from the scene of his murder and an autopsy was nurriedly performed against the wishes of his family. This was done, Indian leaders point out, to destroy the evidence of foul play. When leaders of the American Indian Movement ( A I M ) learned of the controversial killing, Bissonette's mother was told that no autopsy would be done until the family's independent pathologist was present. However, no sooner than this p r o m i s e w a s made, U . S . Attorney William Clayton (of Sioux F a l l s , S.D.) violated this oromise and Bissonette's body was stolen and sneaked away in the dark hours between three and four a.m.

"WW IM: \i;-no deal for Blacks By Joe Walker M.S. New York Bureau

N E W Y O R K - The myth of the job bonanza for Blacks during the much-praised New Deal and World War I I periods was exploded during a session of the 58th A n n i v e r s a r y meeting of the Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History recently held here. TWO S C H O L A R L Y papers were presented, "Quotas for B l a c k s : The Public Works Administration and the Black Construction Worker, 1933 to 1937" by Marc W.

that the state should be in Palestine, for a main purpose. The B r i t i s h and W e s t e r n powers knew the tremendous abundance of oil in the Middle E a s t . I n order to control the oil in the Middle E a s t , they had to create such a state — also to keep the Arab world divided into several small states. So by creating the state of Israel in 1948, in Palestine, they divided the Arab E a s t which is mainly located in Asia and the Arab West which is located in Africa. They put Israel in the - middle to divide them. In 1947, the British put the case of Palestine in the United Nations. The U . N . in those days was composed of only a few states — mostly Western and other states who were influenced by Western imperialism. They voted for the partition plan because they were forced. I think.if the partition plan was submitted to the U . N . in these d a y s that wouldn't happen because our brothers in Africa, who show their full support and solidarity to the Arab cause, are so strong. M.S.—Do you see Israel's expansionist moves as an effort to gain oil lands or is it more than just oil? E B E I D — L e t me go back to the partition plan. I n 1947, those big powers in the U .

V IBRAHIM EBEID, Palestine Liberation Organization official, sees the Middle East conflict as a continuous armed struggle until Israel leaves Arab land. (M.S. photo by Chester Sheard) that time, because of the era of Stalin — when they divided Palestine, it was supposed to be a Jewish state and an Arab state. But we see that the Zionists, in those days in 1948 before the British mandate was terminated in May, with the help and support of the British, occupied about two thirds of Palestine including the supposed-to-be Arab states in Palestine. We also see in 1956. Britain, F r a n c e and I s r a e l attack Egypt. They (the imperialists) saw the masses start moving — they had a progressive leadership under President G a m e l Nasser and attacked Egypt and occupied the Sinai Peninsula. I n 1967, I s r a e l w i t h the assistance of the Western powers, m a i n l y the U . S . , launched another aggression a g a i n s t the A r a b s t a t e s surrounding occupied Palestine, which is called

Israel. Before, some Arab states tried to solve the problem through peaceful means, through negotiations, through the U . N . , but this had failed. And now they are saying that the Arabs started the war! What war are they speaking about? We are trying to defend ourselves — to liberate our land — to liberate our people. We are determined to liberate all the Arab land including a l l of Palestine, not part of it as some people might say. That land, so - called Israel is occupying, is our land. Our land w a s taken over by Zionists: they brought J e w s from a l l over the world and took our property. M.S. — There was a lot of speculation when this w a r broke out t h a t the w a r wouldn't last very long — that the Arabs couldn't fight — that it would be just like the '67 war

which was a very humiliating experience for all of us who despise oppression. What is the difference in the Arab of today than the Arab of '67 that he has been able to mount this highly professional military confrontation against Israel? E B E I D - This time they are more advanced. I would say they have improved 10 times. The Arabs are more unified than before. But we don't think this is the war of liberation. I t is just a battle in my opinion. The Arab Governments should realize the importance of the war of liberation. They should get the people ready and prepare for it, mentally and physically. They should train them and give them arms because the classical armies are not enough to fight Israel and the U . S . and western imperialism. The Arab masses should take part in the struggle also. When this comes to existence, I believe this will be the war of liberation that ends all wars.

M.S.—Do you think it will be possible for a unified Arab world to come together to stage this battle? E B E I D — This is our aim. We look at the Palestine revolution as the spearhead of the Arab revolution. The Arab revolution is part of the world revolution — the revolution of oppressed people of the world. The aim of the Arab revolution is to unite the Arab world and live under socialism because

socialism is very important for oppressed people. M.S. — There's a lot of money in the Arab world. It would seem that they would be more progressive than what they are? E B E I D — Unfortunately most of the money in the Arab world is in the wrong hands — those puppets which follow Western imperialism. But this money will soon belong to the Arab people and to oppressed people also, not only to the Arab people—to our brothers in Africa and Asia because the Arab revolution has to help people to liberate themselves. M.S. — Do you see the U . S . intervening in this present war to gain control of a certain sector of the Arab oil - world under the pretense of aiding Israel? E B E I D — The intervention of the U . S . existed since the creation of Israel! In 1948. President T r u m a n recognized Israel two and one - half minutes after the proclamation of the Israel state. The arms, the money, the guns that Israel has is from the U.S. So this is intervention! I think that the U . S . military will send troops to the Middle E a s t because they think the Arab revolution is a danger to them and their existence. We will be ready for them and this w i l l s t i r -up our A f r i c a n brothers and they will join us in our struggle against imperialism.

Explode Roosevelt era myths (Continued from page 4)

Veterans' Bonus March prior to Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration — and especially tenants' struggle against eviction in Chicago and elsewhere." I N 1932, Blacks had voted against F D R in large numbers. In 1936 Roosevelt carried the Black vote but in Chicago it was by a slim margin. To Guinier the key aspect of K r u m a n ' s paper is " i t s delineation of the successful use of 'quotas' to attain justice for Blacks. This contrasts with today's historical wailing against quotas by liberals and others who hate to give up their monopoly of privilege..." In an analysis as applicable to 1973 as to World War I I period to which it referred, professor Robert Weaver, former Johnson Cabinet member, wrote in his book "Negro Labor:'' " . . . w h i t e w o r k e r s had acquired a vested interest in most desirable types of work. When the war* required the entrance of Negroes into these areas of employment, white workers saw in the development a threat to what they considered their exclusive preserve.

"Also, the higher earnings of the Negro make him an effective competitor for limited available supplies of housing, transportation, food, clothing, and other goods and services."' Professor Gregory's " T h e E m p l o y m e n t of the B l a c k Woman in Defense Production During World War I I " was criticized by Guinier for its l a c k of a n y b a c k g r o u n d information "detailing the g r i m n e s s of the struggle needed for the acomplishments detailed." Missing was a discussion of the F a i r Employment Practices Committee ( F E P C ) and A . Philip Randolph and Walter White of the N A A C P . " I t took a threat — of 100.000 Blacks to Washington on J u l y 1,1941 — to e s t r a c t from F r a n k l i n D . Roosevelt Executive Order 8802 on June 25. 1941, three days after Hitler had attacked the Soviet Union," the Black commentator from Harvard University remarked. " E V E N SO, a Southerner on the c o m m i t t e e , Mark Ethridge, a nationally regarded liberal, attacked the core of the meaning of F E P C . Ethridge stated: '...There is no power in the world — not even

in all the mechanized armies of the earth, Allied and Axis — which could now force the Southern white people to the abandonment of the principle of social segregation.' "It took a tightened race consciousness and determination for Blacks to fight for a better position in American society even when the Axis powers were virtually on the shores of the United States." said Guinier. Quoting W e a v e r a g a i n . "Resistance to advances in the economic and occupational status of the Negro persists e v e n i n p e r i o d s of f u l l employment, such as during World War I I . because better jobs for him represent a direct challenge to the accepted color caste system. "To some, the changes represent a loss of Negro servants and laborers: by others they are interpreted as a threat to the white man s job in the post-war economy.'" Guinier asserted that both scholarly papers presented at the Association for the Study of A f r o - A m e r i c a n L i f e and History convention gave intentions of "the intense struggles necessary for the smallest advances of B l a c k s

The recommendation must then go to the Security Council where only a veto is likely to block it. The F r e n c h have always been inclined to abstain on such matters. The United States is reluctant to cast a veto which could be interpreted as support for Portugal's colonial wars in Africa. The Portuguese can rely only on B r i t a i n to save them from an embarrassment which would greatly encourage the liberation movements within the other two colonies of Portugal — Mozambique and Angloa.

MOSCOW — The Soviet Union, the world's second industrial power accounting for 20 per cent of the world's production, is capable of offering and does offer a great deal of its experience and technology to other countries. More than 370 multi-purpose projects of Soviet design have been built in developing countries of Africa. Asia and Latin America, with the help of Soviet e n g i n e e r s and laborers and Soviet equipment. A N O T H E R 42t projects are being built or are to be built. The accelerated organization of f o r e i g n industrial enterprises is considerably facilitated by the fact that Soviet technological aid is often delivered in the form of complete units. Such enterprises often create new industries, changing the economic and social structure of countries that have chosen the p a t h of i n d u s t r i a l development most beneficial for themselves. For example. the metallurgical plant at Bhilai. India, built after Soviet design and fitted out with Soviet equipment, last year smelted more than 2. million tons of steel. It now plans to increase its production capacity to 7 million tons of steel a year. The Bhilai metal plant enabled India to organize its own

In the name of Allah, and in the name of his Messenger, the Honorable E l i j a h Muhammad. As-Salaam-Alaikum We the Muslim Brotherhood here at Ashland Federal Youth Center, would like to express the love we have for our L e a d e r and T e a c h e r , the Honorable E l i j a h Muhammad. For well over forty years, many men have risen from among the Black people here in the wilderness of North America, trying to get we the mentally dead, so - called American Negro, out of this disgraceful position we're in; but none have been successful as our Leader and Teacher. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad has done so much for the Black man in America. He has taken dope - shooters, drunkards, robbers, and our Black sisters off the streets. He is turning them into nurses, doctors, lawyers and skilled

workers. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad is God - taught; this is why he is so successful today. He teaches that there are two sides to everything; up - down, right - wrong, Black white. God - devil, and by nature they are enemies to each other. We, the believers in F . Y . C . know, and bear witness to this teaching. My brothers and sisters — the white man is our enemy by nature and was not put here to teach or represent the truth when it comes to the Black man. The Honorable E l i j a h Muhammad is exposing him to us. Our Leader and Teacher gives us something to believe in and something to belong to — I s l a m . He teaches us that we must pull away from the white man — who stands for evil — and start doing something for self. We. the Believers in Ashland, Kentucky, love the Messenger and w i l l forever continue to

Remember! — the Honorable E l i j a h Muhammad probes every area and deals with everything.

E x c e r p t s from the H o l y Q u r a n By Sister Annie Muhammad The Messenger's Sister,

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Who Created the Heavens and the E a r t h , and made the darkness and the light. Y e t those who reject faith, Allah holds others as equal with their guardian lord. It is He Who Created you from clay, and then decreed a stated term for you. And, there is in his presence another determined term, yet ye doubt within yourselves. A l l Praises are due to Allah. Say, if ye do love Allah, follow me. Allah Will love you and forgive you your sins, for Allah is oft forgiving, Most Merciful. Say, obey Allah and His Apostle, But, if they turn back, Allah loveth not those who reject faith. Allah did choose Adam and Noah, the family of Abraham above a l l people — offsprings one of the other. And Allah heareth and knoweth a l l things.

Muhammad has said that he will never leave us, and for those who follow and believe and participate in bringing about this change w i l l receive the rewards that God (Allah) has promised. So we, the Muslim Brotherhood at A s h l a n d , Kentucky, F . Y . C . say: A l l praises are due to Allah for the Honorable E l i j a h Muhammad. As - Salaam - Alaikum

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad's (Messenger of Allah) wisdom is like the rays of the sun. His wisdom reaches out to a l l . The Temples of I s l a m are like plantes revolving on their axis around Messenger Muhammad (sun) to receive wisdom (light).

He i s p r e p a r i n g us for complete living in a Nation of our own, founded and governed in righteousness. The result of even a small dosage of Islam as taught by The Honorable Elijah Muhammad distinguishes Muslims from those who have not yet been taught their identity. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad knows the science of education and has set up the one workable school system for the Black man. He is aware of the fundamental "building blocks' that everyone must have, so he has designed the universities to meet these needs. The Carnegie Commission on Higher Education released a report in New York, in August 1973, on a study which was begun in 1967. which shows in turn that the Honorable E l i j a h Muhammad's school system has also been studied by the white man for some time. The conclusions reached were: 1—exclusion of a number of specific high school courses which are totally unnecessary but are required for college acceptance. 2— to make the last two years of high school and the first two years of college equal to a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree. 3— to cut out the senior year of high school and make this senior year the equivalent to the freshman year in college. 4— to begin children in school by 4 years of age so they can graduate earlier. 5— to let children who can prove their ability bypass as much of high school as possible so they can begin college earlier, or begin on-the-job technical training, or training for public service. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad has been teaching, since he established his first University in Detroit in 1932, that there is too much time lost in high school—the last two years that college duplicates in its first two years. The eyes of the world are upon the Universities of Islam under the guidance of the Honorable E l i j a h Muhammad, and the U n i t e d States government is attempting to tear a page from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad's book by establishing a national commission to institute reforms which our Messenger of Allah has begun by example of his school system. A l l praises are due to Allah for sending us a m a s t e r educator to guide and teach us.


("Reprinted horn the June 18, 1965 issue of Muhammad Speaks.")

Do you ask yourself the question? "What are you doing for yourself?" In a world that is on its way out, with another new world forging itself in on the old, the average of my poor people here in America have been made to believe that they do not have to even think and do for themselves. This came from the old slave-master, that they are not responsible for their present nor future. You actually feel that you are not supposed to give thought to your own responsibility, because of the white slave-master carrying it for you. But, there comes a change-over in the life of everything, and the intelligent human being with changes made frequently. But you have not been intelligent enough to do much, or make much of a change. Because of this fear of the slave-master, you have dropped far behind the modern way of thinking and doing something for self. Today you live in the resurrection, and the world expects you to rise from the grave of ignorance, laziness, hopelessness and

despair — as the everchanging events of the Nation today should warn you to get out. Take your place with the rising tide of your people; do something for yourself. Being irresponsible since the days of our fathers in the Western hemisphere, it causes you to think that you should never be burdened with your own responsibility. But you must have it and care for it yourself. Why not unite with me and my followers, whom God in Person is with, and Who has visited you and me, for the purpose of giving to you a home on this earth, that you can call your own? You must qualify to move forward successfully for yourself, your children, and your children's children's children. You see your people throughout the earth stirring up themselves for self. Our brothers in Africa give you a lesson, if only you take heed. They are trying — everyone of them — to keep and maintain Africa for Africans. You glorify here in the wealth of the white man as though it is yours, and you will foolishly say that his is yours. The main courses that

our educated people should take is engineering — all types of engineering. Without such knowledge you cannot build a Nation for yourself. Prepare yourself to be teachers of your own kind. We see our Black brother, the African, coming here, going to colleges and universities, studying every technical advantage to take back home, to his people, so that he may elevate his people and become on the level of all other civilized peoples and governments. Should this not be a warning to you to do something for self, more constructive than you ever have done; something from the inevitable signs of total destruction of the old world, which you have succeeded so faithfully in helping the white man to build for himself — a monument to civilization? You have never cared to build one for yourself. But today it is a must. So join up with me, and help me and my followers to set a sign in America, preferably Chicago, that will speak for your striving to do something for self, after 100 years now, of so-called freedom. Every sign you have established was to the


white man, and to the credit of his way of civilization and not yours. If you have been freed of the yoke of the white man, as a slave, you will do something for yourself and the way of your own people and civilization and not the way of the slave-master's civilization. You have a history of Israel freed from the power of the Egyptian slave master. They left Egypt and the way of the Egyptians, after being free. They did not beg Egypt to remain longer. You look so foolish today, begging the children of the slavemaster, begging them to allow you to be swallowed up by them, by integration. You show to the world, by your own words and actions that with a billion or more people on the planet earth looking like you, and belonging to your nation, you hate and despise your own great Nation. You are the first people in the sun and want now, to be one of those whom your fathers made. You have rejected the call of Allah (God) to set you in heaven at once. This rejection of His call has made you to do very foolish and ignorant things, though you be welleducated. As a sacrifice,

you try to get the white man to let you in with him, while the common class of the white man is turning you into filth and evil. This has never before been witnessed in the practice of human beings. What Allah (God) has ordered me to do among you, will make of you a great Nation, and you will be respected and honored by all civilized people as their equal. Will you do something for yourself by helping me to build a center here in Chicago, to teach you the knowledge of self, to qualify you to be the equal of any civilized people on earth? I hope to hear from you in the way of •

Since the majority of readers desire that this article be reprinted, and since this article would not take up the entire space that was left for it, therefore, the vacant space I am filling up with a warning to you: Do not get overjoyed if Allah desires to give a LULL B E F O R E THE STORM, and begin to think that the storm is not coming! The storm is bound to come and it will rain upon the cities. 'As it was in the day of Noah, so it shall be in the day of the Son of Man.

peoples and their towns and cities. So you have been regularly warned for over 40 years—warned of the same thing which came to them will come to America — and you live in America! But it takes such chastisement and destruction of people that you too may reap the consequences of your proud unbelief. As you see me and my followers try to rouse you, or to get your attention to do something for self — PLEASE FOLLOW OUR ADVICE. I am still your brother and warner, to you who will be warned.

WASHINGTON.D.C. - The 19 days of bloodletting in the Middle-East, and the daily atmosphere of " c r i s i s " now appears to have whetted the innate appetite of "warmongers" in this U . S .

As the blood poured on the sand of the Sinai, the war adrenalin of the Hill " h a w k s " flowed unabated.

It is rumored here that the caucus is now under a threat from U . S . Z i o n i s t s to issue a statement favoring the Israeli position " w i t h i n d a y s .

Barbara Jordon. D - T e x a s . Andrew Young. D-Ga.. and Congressman Stokes. Rangel's resolution however, was reported to be "too much to stomach" — in favor of Israel — too much for some of the B l a c k caucus members to swallow, despite the fact that most are heavily dependent upon Zionist tainted funds. Perhaps the Black Congressman most "over the b a r r e l " about the Mid - east war is Charles Diggs.

At latest count at least 20 African states have severed relations with Israel.

Israel There is going evidence here among observers of Black politics that any strong support by B l a c k congressmen in support of Israel in disregard for the position of the African states — and the African, and " B l a c k " oriented constituents in America — will be a grave miscalculation.

We have been there in (the Middle E a s t ) for 6,000 years. Forget that we are Arabs; we are the Semites of the area and the Sephardim J e w s are our brothers. They are Semites, and we would accept the Khazar J e w s to be our brothers, but not as our lords. " . . . I am not sure whether there will be enough courage on the part of the major powers to set their petty interests aside, and those who help Israel, not to play with fire, because the fire might spread and them miscalculations may throw us all into a world conflict."

conference

Seeks to control Black inmates B y Donald Mosby C H I C A G O — More than 500 persons converged in Chicago for a three - day conference on "Minorities in Corrections and Law Enforcement.'' The conference was hosted by Chicago State University, and the primary purpose of the conference was to delve into ways to solve the growing number of problems facing prison officials as a result of the large numbers of Blacks, Indians, and Spanish surnamed convicts.

The three-day conference w a s designed to find w a y s in which to better "control" prison populations. (M.S. Photo by Emerson M u h a m m a d )

F R O M T H E M O M E N T the conference began it w a s blatantly obvious that what was being sought was a way in which to make the "fortress" prison work. Many of the highlevel prison officials present felt that part of the solution to the problem lay in "convincing" the Black and other minority convicts to "cooperate" more fully with the various prison officials. The workshops covered such topics as "Increasing Minorities in the Criminal Justice S y s t e m " — "Chicanos

W H I L E T H E B A S I C purpose of the conference may have been w e l l - m e a n i n g , it is obvious that the only thing most of the participants were interested in was discovering ways and means to "contain a n d c o n t r o l " the large minority populations in prisons today. A l l y n S i e l a f f . the n e w l y appointed Illinois Corrections Director, told the delegates that the reason behind most of the disturbances that have occurred in prisons recently lies in the fact that what prison reform has taken place has been very slow in coming. A random sampling of the delegates to the conference revealed that a great many of the Black delegates, who work in corrections, were deeply frustrated and seething with

anger. The anger was due to the fact t h a t the B l a c k s found themselves working against the system which employed them. This was the case the minute the Blacks, such as parole officers, etc., began to view their clients as human beings with problems. MANY O F T H E Blacks appeared as hard-core cynics who were firmly convinced that there is no hope for Blacks in the current corrections systems. The basis for their attitudes lay in their lack of knowledge and the o v e r t racism of the higher-level w h i t e s the B l a c k s m u s t respond to. Most of the whites attending the conference felt that one major way to solve many of the problems in the rurual fortress prisons is to hire more

Black line - officers for the i n s t i t u t i o n s . T h i s w a s an ongoing undercurrent throughout the conference. "More Blacks working in the prisons would be a solution to the minority problems," was heard time and again. But throughout the conference it was apparent that what was being sought was more and better ways to control the prisoners. I n order to achieve this end. prison officials are now desperately seeking alliances with Black Muslim inmates. Sielaff told the delegates that the same prison officials who didn't allow Muslim literature in t h e i r i n s t i t u t i o n s now welcome Muslims with open arms. These officials now view M u s l i m s as a " q u i e t i n g " influence on angry convicts.

Georgia Governor using new welfare roll reducing laws By Harold 4X (Special to Muhammad Speaks)

ATLANTA, Ga. — Jimmy Carter, who rose from peanut f a r m e r to G o v e r n o r , has armed the state Department of Human Resources with a new law which provides stiffer penalties for what he calls " w e l f a r e c h e a t e r s " in his continuing purge of the welfare rolls. T H E 1973 Georgia General Assembly provided Governor

Carter with two laws, Welfare F r a u d Act and

the the

Child Support Recovery Act, to enable him to deal more effectively with what he calls fraud and with the problem of Black fathers who fail to provide financial assistance to their dependent children. F i n e s against so-called w e l f a r e c h e a t e r s w i l l be greater under the new law. Welfare fraud, will c a r r y a minimum 12-month penalty.

Carter says that 20 per cent of those now receiving welfare assistance are doing so illegally. Carter estimates that some $15 m i l l i o n is being lost annually in excessive and illegal payments to welfare families, a conclusion drawn by using data from his human department. T H E A N N U A L LOSS is part of a billion-dollar yearly drain on t a x p a y e r s n a t i o n a l l y , according to Carter. A state

Crime commission issues prison reforming report WASHINGTONRecognizing that harsh treatment had failed to rehabilitate criminals or curb crime, a Federal Crime- Commission recommended in a 636-page report that many criminals should go free and many prisons should be replaced with programs more humane and effective than jailings. T H E R E P O R T , issued by the National Advisory Commission on Criminal Justice Standards and Goals, was the result of a two-year study financed by a $1.75 million federal grant. I t is considered by many to be quite liberal in its recommendations on prison reform. Commission Director Thomas Madden, general counsel of the L a w Enforcement Assistance Administration ( L E A A ) said that although the recommendations were liberal, "These changes must not be made out of sympathy for the criminal or disregard of the threat of crime to society. They must be made precisely because that threat is too serious to be countered by ineffective methods." T H E B A S I C recommendation of the report is that the power to deal with criminals should rest primarily with community guidance, that is, involving not j u s t the oft-recommended small correctional institutions close to the inmates' homes, but also community campaigns to give convicted defendants alternatives to incarceration — possibly probation along with a job. A special call was issued for police, judges and correction officers to use the "least drastic" methods when dealing with criminals, yet keeping in m i n d t h e o b j e c t i v e of protecting the public. The entire tenor of this

report is that incarceration is not an effective answer for most criminal offenders," the commission said. " T h e failure of major institutions to reduce c r i m e is incontestable. Recidivism rates are notoriously high. Institutions do succeed in punishing, but they do not deter." Only hard-core offenders should be imprisoned and even then, m a n y b a r r i e r s to community ties should be lifted, the report states. The report also recommended: no p r i s o n

sentences should exceed five years except those dealing with murderers, professional c r i m i n a l s and persistent, dangerous offenders; a 10 -year moratorium on construction of new prisons, but states should not build any new major i n s t i t u t i o n s for j u v e n i l e s "under any circumstances"; sentencing panels, so that a judge would not be allowed to impose sentence without first getting the opinions of his peers; conjugal visits; coeducational facilities and an end to prison uniforms for convicts.

survey revealed that 20.7 per cent — or slightly more than one out of five — of the cases in the A i d F a m i l i e s with Dependent Children < A F D C ) program were being overpaid. Georgia's overpayment rate is far worse than the national average of 13.7 per cent — a figure from H E W There are 102,548 cases (or families with a total of 336,968 persons) receiving A F D C payments in Georgia, he said. The total payments amounted to $10,122,960 during the month, or an average of $98.71 per family per month.

Georgia Governor James Carter

C a r t e r says Georgia has 20,000 to 30,000 p e r s o n s committing welfare fraud each month. He is referring 15 per cent of these cases to local district attorneys or solicitors for consideration to prosecute. THE CHILD SUPPORT Recovery Act deals with the problem of fathers who have deserted their children. The law provides for the statewide network that locates absent fathers compelling them to support their children. The A F D C caseload in Georgia will top the 100,000 mark this year. But in only about 9,000 cases does the absent parent pay child support. I n 31,000 of the cases, the absent parent is either dead, disabled or has been gone too long to locate. There are some 60,000 cases in which the "possibility" of getting income exists. W h e n a s k e d of the a c c o m p l i s h m e n t s of h i s administration, Carter always cites his w e l f a r e rolls reduction and i n s i s t s his legislation will eventually save the white state taxpayers $4.2 million. The federal government is changing its welfare policies to encourage states to undertake the kind of purges that reduced states like California and Georgia welfare rolls.

companies must be prepared to dissolve claims against the Chilean Government for damages or losses sustained by their companies while they were under state control." He said ;he owners may be asked to repay money owed to the Chilean Government while the companies were under the control of the Allende regime.

Gen. Augusto Pinochet Ugarte, head of the ruling regime, announced the Government's intention to return more than 300 Chilean and foreign companies to their original owners—companies that were taken over by President Salvador Allende in his attempt to rid Chile of the foreign investors that were d r a i n i n g the economic resources of the country.

OBVIOUSLY CONCERNED over world opinion concerning the three large United States ba sed copper com panies—Kennecott, Anaconda and the Cerro Corporation— which were nationalized by Allende with the unanimous

O F T H E 300 companies listed, close to 40 were comprised of American investors. I n his statement, General P i n o c h e t hinted that the

approval of the legislature, the military rulers claimed they w i l l not return the holdings to them. Instead, the junta announced that it is prepared to begin negotiations on compensation for these companies, whose assets have been estimated at $500 million in Chilean

investments. However, President Allende refused to consider any form of compensation, informing the international economic world that the companies actually owed Chile more than $774million due to excessive profits from their operations in Chile, primarily through the misuse and abuse of Chilean labor and land. International Telephone and T e l e g r a p h ( I . T . T . ) and the Petroquimica- Dow have come under close scrutiny by the j u n t a — I . T .

Chemical Company of the U.S. Deception has been the role of the junta heads as they quietly placed back in the hands ,of former p r i v a t e managers —within two weeks after the m i l i t a r y took o v e r the government —Chilean companies that fell under state control during the Allende era. THEY HAVE NEVER actually announced the return of the executives to their former companies, preferring to call them "government delegates" with the power to manage the "concerns" until some official decree is given. At p r e s e n t , only one American "concern," the Crown Cork and Seal Company, has returned to its former management. The Chilean Embassy in Washington recently stated that a list of companies being considered for restoration to their former status was being prepared and would be made available in the near future.

Radcliffe degrees in their resumes. Harvard, the oldest higher-education institution in the U.S., which even has several offices of New York Stock-Exchange brokers on campus so students can check the condition of their stock portfolios during class breaks. A school which even had the name of its location, changed from Newtowne, Mass., to bear the name of an even older, more traditional university at Cambridge, England. A college which was originally dedicated to "the education of the English and Indian youth...in knowledge and godliness..." but couldn't manage to graduate its first Indian for 29 years, but since has been able to graduate five U.S. Presidents, and teach a sixth in law school.

The Autumn of 73 at H a r v a r d University will not be remembered by everyone for the musty old traditions which are thick in the area of the Commons. Not with the President of the United States facing what seems to be imminent impeachment and conviction; the vice-president already admittedly guilty and thankful for not being in j a i l ; the nation's two top prosecuting attorneys resigned from their jobs in protest of rampant lawlessness; one former nominee for the job of top cop of the F . B . I , exposed as a liar and conspirator; and the former chief of the U . S . 'Justice' Department, now under indictment for high crimes and misdemeanors a l l over the country. Hardly anyone will remember the fair-haired Radcliffe co-eds — dressed in silk scarves from Tiffany's — calling home to their fathers before going to class Monday morning after a hard weekend at the sorority house. And fewer still will remember the bearded underground' newspaper vendors wearing army jackets, shower shoes and athletic socks — at a time when even being a hippie is ' traditional,' old fashioned and square.

But of course a worthy newspaper has been around for some time —the prestigious New York Times, founded in 1851. and still controlled by the same founding family, 123 years later. The New York Times, in comparison, even pats itself on the back for having the same motto, " A l l the News That's F i t to P r i n t , " since 1897. despite a vigorous contest sponsored by the publisher, then, to find a better slogan.

The New York Times, which has more than 42,293 issues and the first publishing of the "Pentagon P a p e r s " to its credit, is a worthy adversary to Harvard, and particularly the AfroAmerican Studies department. Nevertheless, Professor E w a r t Guinier, chairman of that ' B l a c k ' department, takes serious issue with the New York Times for coming onto Harvard's campus, finding another Black' professor, and then permitting that professor, D r . Martin Kilson, to write an article absolutely attacking the Black students and the humble department of Afro-American Studies which produced in its first graduating class of 15, in 1972, one 'Summa cum laude,' three 'Magna cum laude,' and the only Fulbright Fellowship winning graduate on the entire campus. Certainly, no amount of explanation can excuse the reckless act of any ' B l a c k ' intellectual who betrays the Black community from whence he himself has come. Yet, considering the potential irrelevance of liberal arts for Black students in the first place, and then considering the study by the 'free slave' of his former condition of servitude slavery which can be summarized in three words—Slavery, Suffering, Death—then in such cases when the victim himself is perpetrator of a crime against himself, we can almost wash our hands of the matter: Harvard University vs. The New York Times, 'One good term, deserves another?' — Charles 67X, Editor

THE HONORABLE ELIJAH MUHAMMAD MESSENGER OF ALLAH This is the question asked most frequently by both the whites and the blacks. The answers to this question I shall state as simply as possible. 1. We want freedom. We want a full and completi freedom. 2. We want justice. Equal justice under the law. We want justice applied equally to all, regardless of creed or class or color. 3. We want equality of opportunity. We want equal membership in society with the best in civilized society. 4. We want our people in America whose parents c< grandparents were descendants from slaves, to be allowed to establish

a separate

state

or territory

of their

own—either on this continent or elsewhere. We believe that our former slave masters are obligated to provide such land and that the area must be fertile and minerally rich. We believe that our former slave masters are obligated to maintain and supply our needs in this separate territory for the next 20 to 25 years—until we are able to produce and supply our own needs. Since we cannot get along with them in peace and

justifies our demand for complete separation in a state or territory of our own. 5. We want freedom for all Believers of Islam now held in federal prisons We want freedom for all black men and women now under death sentence in innumerable prisons in the North as well as the South We want every black man and woman to have the freedom to accept or reject being separated from the slave master's children and establish a land of their own We know that the above plan for the solution of the black and white conflict is the best and only answer to the problem between two people. 6. We want ah immediate end to the police brutality and mob attacks against the so -called Negro throughout the United States. We believe that the Federal government should intercede to see that black men and women tried in white courts receive justice in accordance with the laws of the land—or allow us to build a new nation for ourselves, dedicated to justice, freedom and liberty.

We do not believe that after 400 years of free or nearly free labor, sweat and blood, which has helped America become rich and powerful, that so many thousands of black people should have to subsist on relief, charity or live in poor houses. 8. We want the government of the United States to exempt our people from ALL taxation as long as we are deprived of equal justice under the laws of the land. 9. We want equal education—but separate schools up to 16 for boys and 18 for girls on the condition that the girls be sent to women's colleges and universities. We want all black children educated, taught and trained by their own teachers. Under such schooling system we believe we will make a better nation of people. The United States government should provide, free, all nscessary text books and equipment, schools and college buildings. The Muslim teachers shall be left free to teach and train their people in the way of righteousness, decency and self respect. 10 We believe that intermarriage or race mixing should be prohibited. We want the religion of Islam taught without

equality, after giving them 400 years of our sweat and blood

7. As long as we are not allowed to establish a state or

and receiving in return some of the worst treatment human

territory of our own, we demand not only equal justice under

beings have ever experienced, we believe our contributions to

the laws of the United States, but equal employment

BUILD OUR OWN SOCIETY!

The words for this weeks Progress Section were excerpted from Messenger Muhammad's brilliant and inspiring book, Message to the Blackman in America. Chapter entitled "Build Our O w n Society.


MUHAMMAD S P E A K S

What must be dene •

You must start thinking and working in the way of

independence, as other dependent nations had to do and are still doing, when

once free of those who hold you in bondage. Get away from that childish way of thinking that the white man forever owes it to you to provide for you the necessities of life. Should you not be too proud of yourself in this modern time to be thinking in the way of dependence instead of independence?

N O V E M B E R 9,1973


MUHAMMAD S P E A K S

N O V E M B E R 9,1973

Why are you talkin ^J*(^(^(^^()J^f^\ j justice and equality if you do not like to be separated from the people on whom you and your fathers are dependent? Do you think that an independent nation is going to make you its equal while you will not accept your own responsibility to provide for your own? Can you blame America for rejecting you as her equal when you are going to the extreme of trying to force her to accept you instead of forcing self and your people to be independent?

S-3


Allah and the Nation of Islam

will help you build one of the finest and best

societies the world of man has ever seen if you will only be yourself and get off of your knees, praying to be other than yourself — a member of the white race.
