F o r c e d to vote B y N a t h a n i e l 10X CHICAGO - Three Black j u r o r s have signed documents which will undoubtedly nullify the recent m u r d e r conviction of five B l a c k V i r g i n Island youths. T h e youths were initially accused of murdering nine people including seven whites. T h e incident allegedly took place o n Rockefeller's F o u n t a i n V a l l e y golf course on the Island of St. C r o i x .

CHARGING THEY were harassed, intimidated, a n d forced t o change their vote t o " g u i l t y , " t h e jurors have released affidavits through Senator Claude Molloy, Black President of the V i r g i n Islands Senate.

Admittedly, the j u r o r s w e r e deadlocked a n d they w e n t t o Judge W a r r e n Y o u n g twice after nine days of deliberation and informed h i m that they w e r e unable to reach a verdict, M u h a m m a d Speaks was told, but t h e f o r m e r Rockefeller corporate l a w y e r refused t o accept the j u r o r ' s decision.

Jury foreman M y r o n Allick declared t h a t he w a s "accused of h o l d i n g o u t and c o s t i n g the government'' too m u c h money.

H e w a s pressured and told that he w o u l d b e c h a r g e d w i t h perjury i f he d i d n o t vote a guilty ticket.

By Donald Mosby C H I C A G O — T h e site chosen to hold hearings into the n e w "flat-grant" welfare system for Illinois—the Sheraton Chicago Hotel—sets o n N o r t h Michigan Avenue along "The M a g n i f i c e n t M i l e " and is about as f a r r e m o v e d f r o m t h e p o o r and their problems as i t is possible to get.

MICHIGAN A V E N U E and the adjoining lake front are the false facade w h i c h greets m o s t of the c o n v e n t i o n e r s and s h o r t t e r m t o u r i s t s w h o pop i n and out of the city each year.

T h e poor seldom j o u r n e y to the Sheraton Hotel o r t h e surrounding area unless they are "sightseeing." I n m o s t of the shops located near t h e hotel, a suit o r a dress often costs m o r e than t h e entire a l l o t m e n t a w e l f a r e f a m i l y of four gets each m o n t h .

meeting

T h e contrast between the r i c h and the poor, the haves and the have-nots, could not have been m o r e clearly established o r sharply drawn. T h e price o f a single night's lodging i n t h e Sheraton is more than a week's w e l f a r e food budget for a f a m i l y of four.

T H E GROSS insensitivity displayed i n choosing t h e Sheraton w a s further amplified when state welfare director. Joel E d e l m a n . told t h e m o r e t h a n 400 p e r s o n s present that t h e "flat-grant" system would take effect o n Oct. 1 as planned.

Ruth LaBeet who traveled t o the United States a n d told M u h a m m a d Speaks of t h e atrocities c o m m i t t e d against the young Blacks, because the U.S. news m e d i a had ignored entirely the treachery perpetrated b y Virgin Island officials.

WHILE T H E BEATINGS were administered to the youths " a l l during this time, the five brothers w e r e chained from the waist to their handcuffs." M r s . L a B e e t said. " T h e brothers were rushed i m m e d i a t e l y t o postal vans then to an airplane a n d whisked off for the state prison on the Island of P u e r t o R i c o .

Vicious 'Black on Black' crime takes heavy t o l l i n f

Atlanta: crime capital' of U.S.

By Harold 4X (Special to Muhammad Speaks)

A T L A N T A — T h e F e d e r a l B u r e a u of Investigation released i t s final f i g u r e s o n n a t i o n a l c r i m e i n 1972, a n d - i t shows that A t l a n t a led the nation i n m u r d e r rates. T w e n t y - t h r e e persons i n e v e r y 100,000 w e r e s i a i n i n A t l a n t a last year, as compared to the national m u r d e r r a t e o f 9.9 p e r 100,000.

F O R ALL S E R I O U S c r i m e s , t h e A t l a n t a r a t e w a s 4,024 p e r 100,000, 43 per cent above t h e nation-wide a v e r a g e o f 2,829.

The American Social Health Association reported that Atlanta leads the country in gonorrhea rates.

Thus, Atlanta is also a major venereal disease center.

DHlard Munford, a wealthy member of the Atlanta power structure, said of the F B I report, "Atlanta has a bigger Black population than most and that is why we have more homicides. I believe that is a fair statement."

P o l i c e r e c o r d s s h o w t h a t 77 p e r c e n t o f m u r d e r s h e r e i n 1972 w e r e committed b y Blacks. According to the F B I , the n a t i o n a l a v e r a g e is about 63 p e r c e n t m u r d e r s b y B l a c k s .

AUanta, and the South as a whole, are m o r e violent than the rest o f t h e nation. T h e F B I said that n e a r l y half—44 per cent—of the m u r d e r s last

year occurred i n the South.

The F B I states i n t h e report that m a n y crimes go unreported, b u t the compilation does offer some valid measures of trends.

P R E L I M I N A R Y F I G U R E S from the A t l a n t a Police D e p a r t m e n t on the total number o f serious crimes reported i n t h e city this year indicate a n increase w h e n compared w i t h t h e 1972 t o t a l .

Savannah has the distinction o f having t h e second highest rape incidence i n t h e country, w i t h about 50 r a p e s p e r 100,000 p e r s o n s .

By Min. Louis 6X Temple No. 6 The Last Messenger of Allah is referred to in scripture as being the second Adam. We are taught from the scripture that all in the first Adam would die and all in the second Adam would have everlasting life.

The first Adam and those who came from him are not the first people; for the Black man himself is the first and the Original people. But this first Adam is making reference to mankind or a kind of man who has been given a trial period of 6,000 years to rule the people and the earth that was not made from him but was made from the Original creator, the Black man.

The first Adam is referred to as the serpent; he is also referred to as the dragon, the beast and the devil. This Adam was not fit for the paradise that had been established by God, therefore, he was kicked out; but the second Adam — who would not be made from the dust of the earth, the worst part — would be fashioned by a quickening spirit or the spirit of the living God Who came in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad.

From this Last Messenger of God (Allah) — or the second Adam — would come a perfect wisdom that would produce a perfect people, eliminating from man the possibility of sin, thereby putting man on a road of perpetual and everlasting peace.

This kind of man has never before been present with man, therefore it is impossible to find an adequate yardstick by which to measure or determine him. He is the seal of the prophets, therefore closing out the work of those who went before him.

As the seal of prophets then, in this one's — the Last Messenger — life we see a portion of the life and work of ail of the prophets and apostles before him. He comes at the time when the man of sin has reached his climax in evil and wickedness; and at such a time when nearly every creature that creeps upon the face of the earth has been affected by his evil.

He cranes at such a time when every human being has been touched by the evil thought of the devil, thereby making evil upon the earth nearly a sinful blanket — leaving hardly any segment of man whose thoughts are not continual for evil.

Never has there been such a time that evil and corruption in deeds and thoughts have dominated the mind and will of men. Every place that we turn there is evil continually, corruption is in the heads of governments destroying all trust of people for their leaders."

The Last Messenger comes as the seal of the prophets to close out the very purpose of prophethood; he come to establish the kingdom of God and to introduce man to God that man may stand face to face before God. His coming is after the expiration of the man of sin's time verifying that part in scripture that His craning is after the working of Satan. He also comes with a consummate wisdom — a wisdom that covers and engulfs all of the wisdom of his predecessors.

A glimpse or peek into his life from the life of the prophets is not the total of this man but only a very minute part of him.

In the lives of all of the prophets there were varying aspects of the life of this Last and Great Prophet of God, who came just before God, and whose job it is to prepare the way for the coming of God. He has. toe tremendous responsibility of reuniting man and God to make them one again.

EDITOR'S

NOTE:

Part VI of Messenger Muhammad's continued analysis of EZEKIEL'S WHEEL is not quite ready, as Messenger Muhammad has a great deal more to tell us in order to enlighten us on this vital subject — EZEKIEL'S WHEEL Messenger Muhammad is not writing any more himself at the present time. However, continue to watch closely for Messenger Muhammad's new articles and the continuation of EZEKIEL'S WHEEL (Part VI).

Messenger Muhammad has so many articles made in the past which are so very good in the way of truth today that this week we present to you, by popular request one of his earlier articles which is such a direct picture of today, it is as though Messenger Muhammad were writing it today!!!

Messenger Muhammad's article which we present to you today... in its first presentation a few years ago, THE TITLE of this article at that time did not read exactly as it does today.

However, the article itself has not been changed — only the title.

IN the stage of the making of the devil (white race) confusion existed between the Arab world and Yakub (father of the devil).

YAKUB'S (a Black scientist) teachings to his made-man (white race) was that they make mischief in the land, and rule the Aboriginal Black People, by dividing them one against the other.

IN order to destroy the power of the enemy (white race) at that time, they decided to drive Yakub's made-man (white race) into the hills and mountains of west Asia (which is now known as Europe).

Six thousand (6,000) years ago that desolate wilderness was known as west Asia.

DISAGREEMENT was accepted, therefore the devil had to be driven into what is now called Europe.

ACCORDING to the teachings of God, Who Came in the Person of

Master Fard Muhammad, to me: E U stands for hillside and R O P E means that these people (white race) were roped in and isolated from the peaceful world of the Muslim Arabs.

A F T E R YAKUB'S made-man (white race) was driven out, the Arabs were not completely at peace because the devil had left his stain of dissatisfaction and mischief -making among the people of the Arab world. The stain remained because it was due to the given time of Yakub's made-man to serve the people with that which they never were served under before (confusion and bloodshed).

T H E A R A B S thought that isolation, and the banishing of the white race into the hills and cavesides of Europe would be the end of Yakub's made-man (white race).

T H E white man was made by nature to do that which his father made him for. He could not help but carry out the law under which he was made. And he has been doing so ever since he was made. He has not disobeyed his father, Yakub's Law. T H E reader will agree with me, that this is perfectly true. The white man divides the so-called Negro (Aboriginal Black People) until, today you can hardly unite two so-called Negroes together. He divided the people by telling other than the truth and teaching it to the world.

A L L of this causes confusion — anything opposite to the truth. The truth will finally have to go to war against other than the truth, in order to keep truth, and the light of the truth, shining in the heart of those who love truth.

CONFUSION, REVOLUTION this trouble and warring is due to the fact that it is time that the truth should reign, and the Great God of Truth, Master Fard Muhammad, To Whom Praises are due forever is in Person today, to see that truth triumphs over falsehood. And the lovers of falsehood will fight to the bitter end to oppose truth and prevent truth from triumphing over the nations of the earth.

T H E R E are so many of our Black People who have been reared under falsehood, that they will join the forces of falsehood to try to prevent truth from being the victor. This is an evil world that we are now living in. It has become the bursting point of its world. "As she has done so shall it be done unto her."

SHE HAS divided the nations and has put brothers fighting against brothers. Now she must be divided and her brother of evil put to fighting with her. This is going on at the present time.

WHEN we learn the cause of the ugly situation of the world, we can see just why it should be like it is.

Corruption of evil is poured upon all of the living of the earth. It is no easy thing to restore the nation of righteous back into righteousness, after being ruled under other than right, for six thousand (6,000) years. Just one thousand (1,000) years is a long, long time.

BUT, the white race had six thousand (6,000) years in which to destroy the truth and to destroy the Aboriginal Black People who were created in truth.

NOW to separate them and to put them back again into their own spheres, and remove the troublemakers. The trouble-makers

(white race) cannot have . a place anywhere on the earth because the white race has covered the earth of the Aboriginal Black People. There is nowhere to hide him as there was six thousand (6,000) years ago when he was driven into the hills and cavesides of Europe.

EVERY s q u a r e foot of civilization today is under the rule of the trouble-makers. Therefore, it will not do us any good to exile him to rid ourselves of this mighty and powerful enemy, so Allah (God) Has Decided, this time to burn the worse one of them, and destroy the power of those that are not burned.

T H E BOOK O F DANIEL, in the Bible, has the clear answer to the confusion and the trouble-maker.

He singles out one beast (as they are called) and prophesies that they would be taken and killed outright. This prophecy corresponds with the prophecy in the Book of Revelation, in the Bible, 'that one beast (4th beast) was killed outright and his body given to the burning flame.'

DANIEL and the Revelation of John shows the same end of Yakub's made-man.

This knowledge is not new to the white man. The white man has known this all of his life. But, what is new in this is that my Black People never knew the 'theology side' of the Bible. They have only used guessing. Therefore, they have misled their, and our, own Black People, spiritually.

T H E right way out for them now, and the truth that will establish them again on the earth as a nation, is to accept their own.

But it is hard for them to believe;

therefore, God Himself Will Have to Resort to punishment, for them, in order to get them to believe.

T H E confused Americans and the confused government cannot be helped, because it is God Himself Who Is Causing their confusion.

They confuse all with whom they come into contact.

T H E white man's greatest effort to rule us was to divide one against the other. He divided Korea, as you know, with one brother against the other. He divided China, with one brother against the other. There out in Formosa he has a brother of China, sitting there to fight his brother China, on the mainland. He divided Viet Nam just like he did Korea. Then he made the two brothers fight and kill each other while he (white man) acted as judge.

THIS is what Yakub taught him.

"Divide them and let them fight.

When they are fighting with each other, you step in and tell them to let you judge ther affair and when they allow you (white man) to judge their affair then you can rule them both."

SO all of this is now coming to an end, for the God of Heaven Has Ordered it. Look at the opposition and prosecution to kill you because you believe in the truth. They do not care how they kill you, just as long as you are dead. They shoot you in the back. They shoot you while you lay asleep. They shoot you anywhere. They hide behind a bush and shoot you. The white man is a murderer by nature. Jesus did not miss it in the Bible, John 8:44 "...

He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth... for he is a liar..." His father made him under this.

The Honorable Elijah M u h a m m a d Messenger of Allah Muslims reserve all rights. Photograph cannot be reproduced without permission of owner.

SO when you hear me say that I cannot blame the made-man (white man) for this is what he was by nature to do, that does not mean that you, WE will endure with the white man forever, just because, by nature he is evil. The real blame is on Yakub who made the devil (white race).

CONFUSION, CONFUSION AND R E V O L U T I O N . Everybody is opposed to the other. Twenty-four hours a day A m e r i c a is broadcasting her confusion. Only a few, here and there, among the white race, desire to see truth and justice reign instead of confusion, murder and injustice.

UNIVERSAL CONFUSION AND REVOLUTION. I thank you.

E L I J A H MUHAMMAD Messenger of Allah, to you All.

Arthur Majied, Business Manager

The Messenger

of Ailah

Presents

The Muslim Program What the Muslims Want 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 passible.

1. We want freedom. We want a full and complete 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 or 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 farmer 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—untii we are able to produce and supply our own needs.

Since we cannot get along with them in peace and equality, after giving them 400 years of our sweat and blood

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 an immediate end to the police brutality and mnb 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 nocessary 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

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

the laws of the United States, but equal employment

prohibited. We want the religion of Islam taught without hinderance or suppression.

These are some of the things that we, the Muslims, want for our people in North America.

What the Muslims Believe 1. WE BELIEVE in the One God Whose proper Name is 2. WE BELIEVE

in the Hoiy

Qur -an and in the

Scriptures of all the Prophets of God. 3. WE BELIEVE in the truth of the Bible, but we believe that it has been tampered with and must be reinterpreted so that mankind will not be snared by the f alsehoods that have beer added to it.

4. WE BELIEVE in Allah's Prophets and the Scriptures they brought to the people.

5. WE BELIEVE in the resurrection of the dead—not in physical

separation of the so -called Negroes and the so -called white Americans. We believe the black man should be freed in

resurrection—but

in mental

resurrection. We

believe that the so -called Negroes are most in need of mental resurrection: therefore, they will be resurrected first.

Furthermore, we believe we are the people of God's choice, as it has been written, that God would choose the rejected and the despised. We can find no other persons

for the separation from the whites of this nation.

If the white people are truthful about their professed

8. WE BELIEVE in justice for all, whether in God or not: we believe as others, that we are due equal justice as human beings. We believe in equality—as a nation—of equals We do not believe that we are equal with our slave masters in the status of "freed slaves".

We

recognize

and respect

American

citizens as

independent peoples and we respect their laws which govern this nation.

9. WE BELIEVE

righteous Muslims, should not participate in wars which take the lives of humans. We do not believe this nation should force us to take part in such wars, for we have nothing to gain from it unless America agrees to give us the necessary territory wherein we may have something to fight for.

11. WE BELIEVE our women should be respected and protected as the women of other nationalities are respected and protected.

12. WE BELIEVE that Allah (God) appeared in the
